- 1:31Speaker 1: I I'm Chad Milman, chief content officer for the Action Network.
- 1:35Speaker 1: It's Thursday. We got a big show. Lines are moving,
- 1:39Speaker 1: We're gonna narrow things down. I'm gonna do it as
- 1:42Speaker 1: I always do with my bff, my companion, my compadre,
- 1:47Speaker 1: someone who only laughs at me three or four times
- 1:49Speaker 1: every show. Professional better Sigmon Hunter, Chad. Thursday, week eleven,
- 2:00Speaker 1: are we just gonna die right into it? Atlanta? Just relax, Okay, Simon,
- 2:04Speaker 1: I'm so far up. I put up all the lines.
- 2:06Speaker 1: I'm just going. But you know what, it's Thursday, So
- 2:09Speaker 1: before we get too sharp calls, let's get something straight. Okay.
- 2:13Speaker 1: My job is to drive. Your job is to back
- 2:16Speaker 1: seat drive. So let me tell you where we're going
- 2:19Speaker 1: and then you can tell me why it's wrong. I'm sorry, gentlemen,
- 2:23Speaker 1: We're gonna talk about a survivor pick, even though we
- 2:25Speaker 1: haven't been a survivor for two weeks, but people keep
- 2:28Speaker 1: asking for us. We're gonna talk about a money line parlay.
- 2:30Speaker 1: We're gonna do our big balls better the week. We're
- 2:33Speaker 1: gonna get a sharp call in, which is when your
- 2:36Speaker 1: professional betting buddies have called you after the Tuesday show
- 2:39Speaker 1: and said you're wrong, you're right, go get this, etcetera, etcetera.
- 2:44Speaker 1: But first we'll talk about Thursday, because it's Thursday. We
- 2:47Speaker 1: were all over Atlanta on Tuesday. I bet the Falcons
- 2:51Speaker 1: plus seven. The line has been moving down, moved back up,
- 2:54Speaker 1: moved down, has been bouncing around. What do you got?
- 2:57Speaker 1: I was gonna say to you, can you I can't
- 2:59Speaker 1: believe this line is moving down a six and a half.
- 3:01Speaker 1: That's I'm honestly pretty shocked. But because this is every gambler,
- 3:05Speaker 1: this is what they wanted. They want to take the
- 3:07Speaker 1: six point teaser. You tease it down now and a half.
- 3:10Speaker 1: All you need is that the Patriots just to win
- 3:12Speaker 1: straight up by a point, doesn't matter. If they win,
- 3:14Speaker 1: you're gonna be covering now in teasers. So I like
- 3:17Speaker 1: the Atlanta play going into it now, I love it
- 3:19Speaker 1: even more. I really do think the bookmakers are kind
- 3:21Speaker 1: of showing their hand here moving it down like this.
- 3:23Speaker 1: So it's um it's rare we do Thursdays, and I've
- 3:27Speaker 1: been on a roll on our Thursdays and we haven't
- 3:29Speaker 1: used any of them. Of course, we gotta use this
- 3:31Speaker 1: week because this is a typical standalone primetime game reverse
- 3:36Speaker 1: line action. All the money's coming in on this Patriots team.
- 3:40Speaker 1: Everyone keeps throwing in the teasers, just like last week
- 3:43Speaker 1: with the Ravens. Everyone started their week off putting the
- 3:45Speaker 1: Ravens and their teasers to start the week. It's it
- 3:48Speaker 1: was a loser. So we are do for one of
- 3:50Speaker 1: these big favorites to cover on a Thursday night. But
- 3:53Speaker 1: Colts just two weeks ago covered as a ten point
- 3:55Speaker 1: favorite on Thursday Night against this Jets team. So I
- 3:58Speaker 1: don't really think we're that do I kind of like that.
- 4:01Speaker 1: You know, dogs have been good to us in these
- 4:02Speaker 1: primetime games. So I'm still all in on Atlanta plus
- 4:05Speaker 1: six and a half. Uh yeah, I liked Atlantic seven.
- 4:09Speaker 1: What's interesting about this line It actually got bet up
- 4:11Speaker 1: to seven and a half. I feel like I feel
- 4:15Speaker 1: like the professionals were playing the market. I think they
- 4:18Speaker 1: betted up to seven and a half so they could
- 4:20Speaker 1: bet it down to say they wanted to get that
- 4:23Speaker 1: hook on Atlanta at plus seven and a half. Uh,
- 4:27Speaker 1: and then they came back and bought it, and bought
- 4:28Speaker 1: it so big that it went down to six and
- 4:30Speaker 1: a half. I'm surprised as there, but we do like it. Um.
- 4:34Speaker 1: I told you that the math works out now, buddy,
- 4:36Speaker 1: where I looked at it, seven and a half, seven
- 4:39Speaker 1: don't hit as much as six and six and a
- 4:41Speaker 1: half sto. So I'm with you that the pros might
- 4:44Speaker 1: have came in and betted up a little bit like that,
- 4:45Speaker 1: but we didn't really use any value. Apparently that the
- 4:48Speaker 1: odds have not shifted more than percentage of us not
- 4:51Speaker 1: covering the six six and a half. So I still
- 4:52Speaker 1: gotta love the number. I love the number. I love you.
- 4:55Speaker 1: Those are two things that I love. Uh. Let's talk
- 4:58Speaker 1: about sharp calls. Let's get to it. Hello, who's there.
- 5:06Speaker 1: I'm talking somebody who called you this week after Tuesday
- 5:17Speaker 1: and said they hated our picks or loved our picks.
- 5:20Speaker 1: It's it's definitely a trend this season. We have a
- 5:22Speaker 1: great week, a winning week, not that many calls, not
- 5:25Speaker 1: too many guys and really go out there and really
- 5:27Speaker 1: go against me. So I had the one buddy called
- 5:30Speaker 1: me again, the guy who gave me Denver. Last week
- 5:32Speaker 1: we just got absolutely slaughtered and I was over the Eagles,
- 5:34Speaker 1: So I talked a lot of ship to him. But
- 5:37Speaker 1: he is good at reading these home favorites. I'll give
- 5:39Speaker 1: that to him. That is what he likes, the bet favorites.
- 5:41Speaker 1: That's what he does. That's what his group does that
- 5:43Speaker 1: They kind of not the anti pro. They just roll
- 5:46Speaker 1: with the chocolate lot. That's what they like to do.
- 5:48Speaker 1: So he's been one of the few guys who was
- 5:50Speaker 1: on the screen Bay train. I mean, every week you'd
- 5:53Speaker 1: call me up, but every time we go up against
- 5:55Speaker 1: Green Bay and tell me I'm an idiot. He's like,
- 5:56Speaker 1: you just don't get it. You don't get it, you
- 5:58Speaker 1: don't get it. I kept on him, He's not getting it,
- 6:01Speaker 1: and then here we go. Green Bay has covered every
- 6:03Speaker 1: week um since week one. So this week he called
- 6:06Speaker 1: me up and he was surprisingly on the Vikings a
- 6:08Speaker 1: two and a half. We wake up this morning. What
- 6:10Speaker 1: do we see, Chad. It's down to plus one with
- 6:12Speaker 1: the Minnesota Vikings. Now, So that's that's one of those
- 6:15Speaker 1: I know for a fact. I mean, you're gonna have
- 6:17Speaker 1: in because I believe it's still two and a half
- 6:18Speaker 1: in the contest, and we liked it at two and
- 6:20Speaker 1: a half. But it really does feel like we're walking
- 6:24Speaker 1: into it now because this is so easy. Now everyone
- 6:26Speaker 1: in the world's gonna wake up Tonday morning be betting
- 6:28Speaker 1: this Green Bay team, especially on minus one. So give
- 6:32Speaker 1: it to me. Let me fall right into the trap.
- 6:34Speaker 1: I don't care. You have to take the Vikings in
- 6:35Speaker 1: this position. Vikings are our foxhold better the week. I
- 6:39Speaker 1: love it. So we're already ahead of the curve. We're
- 6:41Speaker 1: ahead of the curve. Uh, let's we might as well
- 6:44Speaker 1: talk about that game. We're gonna run down the games
- 6:46Speaker 1: that we listed, and the Vikings were on that list.
- 6:48Speaker 1: But of course, you know, I like to listen on
- 6:50Speaker 1: Thursday mornings, I have my double shot espresso, my my
- 6:57Speaker 1: green tea with match of powder, my overnight oats which
- 7:01Speaker 1: he is seeds your fruit water. I listened to the
- 7:06Speaker 1: Action Network podcast with Raybond, Chris, Raybond and Stucky. I
- 7:10Speaker 1: like to see what they're saying against what you're saying.
- 7:13Speaker 1: It's always really interesting. But this is one where they
- 7:16Speaker 1: loved the Vikings too. Ah. And this is one of
- 7:20Speaker 1: those things where and we see this with the Titans. Also,
- 7:23Speaker 1: we're gonna talk about the Titans and the Colts. There's
- 7:27Speaker 1: three plays over the course of the season that are
- 7:29Speaker 1: the difference between a team being overvalued and a team
- 7:33Speaker 1: being properly valued. Right now, the Packers, they're nine and
- 7:38Speaker 1: one against the spread. They are due for a regression.
- 7:42Speaker 1: With a defense that is overperforming UH, with a quarterback
- 7:47Speaker 1: who is showing signs that he is um vulnerable under
- 7:52Speaker 1: pressure UH, a Niners defense that is playing at a
- 7:57Speaker 1: near elite level, a running back who is an All
- 8:00Speaker 1: Pro going against a terrible rush defense. You can see
- 8:04Speaker 1: why the number moved. I'm gonna wait until Sunday. At
- 8:06Speaker 1: this point, I I forgot to bet it on Tuesday.
- 8:09Speaker 1: I'm gonna wait until Sunday and see if it comes
- 8:12Speaker 1: back up. I will say that as a Packers guy
- 8:15Speaker 1: that has invested in the Packers that win the Super Bowl,
- 8:18Speaker 1: I honestly never felt better all these games they're winning.
- 8:21Speaker 1: They're they're missing a couple of guys in the row line,
- 8:23Speaker 1: and they're missing joy Year Exalloner at that like their
- 8:26Speaker 1: best cornerback. They've been if you look on paper, they've
- 8:30Speaker 1: been one of the best secondaries in football. This season.
- 8:33Speaker 1: So I'm with you. I do think a lot of
- 8:35Speaker 1: things have bounced their way, but this is a typical
- 8:38Speaker 1: I'm gonna have been two seasons ago. The Green may
- 8:40Speaker 1: was in the same exact position right now. They're eight one.
- 8:43Speaker 1: They went on the road to go play the Vikings
- 8:45Speaker 1: team I believe, and they were like a seven point favorite,
- 8:47Speaker 1: the Vikings beating my believe by four team. So divisional games,
- 8:50Speaker 1: that's what we're banking on here. You kind of have
- 8:53Speaker 1: these teams that just match up really well with each
- 8:55Speaker 1: other inside these divisions, and that's how I look at
- 8:57Speaker 1: this Vikings team. I just think myself, it's not be fun.
- 9:00Speaker 1: Me chat hate betting on Kirk Cousins because it's never
- 9:02Speaker 1: a good time. But this is the pro line. We
- 9:05Speaker 1: have to bet this number got to got to that'll
- 9:08Speaker 1: be in the contest for sure. We'll get it to
- 9:10Speaker 1: two and a half again. If you're going to bet
- 9:12Speaker 1: it it's now at one, you might as well wait
- 9:15Speaker 1: and see what happens on Sunday if the public comes
- 9:17Speaker 1: in on the Packers. All right, let's talk about the
- 9:25Speaker 1: Texans and the Titans. Texans plus ten and a half,
- 9:31Speaker 1: that was our Simon says bet better immediately when I
- 9:34Speaker 1: was able to bet it on Tuesday legally in the
- 9:36Speaker 1: state of Connecticut. I got it at eleven. Um, it's
- 9:41Speaker 1: down to ten, right, I think it's down to ten.
- 9:43Speaker 1: I also bet a little bit of a taste on
- 9:47Speaker 1: the money line. UM got it a plus three eight.
- 9:53Speaker 1: I think I still like it. I still like everything
- 9:56Speaker 1: about it. And I mean, it's just the Titans. Come on, man,
- 10:02Speaker 1: Like Josh Allen doesn't slip, they lose that game. A
- 10:06Speaker 1: Cults receiver doesn't tear as a c O while running
- 10:08Speaker 1: a Ton interception back for a touchdown. The Titans get
- 10:12Speaker 1: the ball back and then score. A referee doesn't call
- 10:16Speaker 1: it rough in the past, or when the Saints intercept
- 10:18Speaker 1: the ball in the end zone, the Titans get the
- 10:19Speaker 1: ball back and they score. Those are three flute plays
- 10:23Speaker 1: that have the Titans on a sist game winning street.
- 10:25Speaker 1: And like Power Raider is the number one team in
- 10:27Speaker 1: the NFL, come on, come on, and I got I
- 10:32Speaker 1: got beef to pick with my group. I sent this
- 10:34Speaker 1: in on Tuesday to be one of my big bets
- 10:36Speaker 1: then the season, and I got rejected. I got down. Yeah,
- 10:40Speaker 1: so I I get it. There they're they're just not believers.
- 10:44Speaker 1: I am is in Taylor, so they wanted me to
- 10:46Speaker 1: wait a week on that love for Houston. But it
- 10:50Speaker 1: is one of those where as soon as I saw this,
- 10:52Speaker 1: I told you I love this line. I loved it.
- 10:54Speaker 1: At ten and a half, it just screamed over value
- 10:56Speaker 1: team in this Tennessee team. Um like a little bit
- 10:59Speaker 1: of the window on my sales when I got rejected
- 11:01Speaker 1: just because I like I not that I want to
- 11:03Speaker 1: get over my big bets this season, but it's just
- 11:05Speaker 1: a piece of stress I hate carrying with me where
- 11:07Speaker 1: it's like I need to find it, I need to
- 11:09Speaker 1: get it, I need to be right. So nothing's changed.
- 11:12Speaker 1: This is gonna be one of my biggest bets of
- 11:14Speaker 1: the week. I'm all in on Houston, but it will
- 11:17Speaker 1: not be one of my biggest bets of the season,
- 11:18Speaker 1: just in the simple fact that other professionals don't trust it.
- 11:22Speaker 1: So um, I feel like anyone listening to this, this
- 11:25Speaker 1: is a bet you have to make. Like I said
- 11:26Speaker 1: on Tuesday, you should have been at a ten and
- 11:28Speaker 1: a half. I'd still take it at ten. I would
- 11:30Speaker 1: bet this down to about nine and a half nine,
- 11:32Speaker 1: and then uh, we'll see. I I still think public
- 11:36Speaker 1: money will be coming in a Tennessee that I'll just
- 11:37Speaker 1: hold here at the ten number, but I would just
- 11:39Speaker 1: grab it now just to be safe. We love this game, yeah,
- 11:45Speaker 1: definition of an overvalue team. We love the Falcons, we
- 11:49Speaker 1: love the Vikings, we love the Texans. Right now, how
- 11:53Speaker 1: are we feeling about the Saints plus one and a
- 11:54Speaker 1: half against the Eagles. We loved it the other day?
- 11:59Speaker 1: Well loving it now? Yeah, still love it? Still like
- 12:05Speaker 1: still like that camar is back. But you're in, like
- 12:08Speaker 1: you're in, Like you're not You're not in love. No,
- 12:11Speaker 1: It's like there's other dogs we like better, especially ones
- 12:13Speaker 1: on the road with bigger point spreads. But um, I
- 12:16Speaker 1: still bet to send teasers. Still think you're getting a
- 12:19Speaker 1: good number. It's just interesting now that professionals are really
- 12:22Speaker 1: coming on the Eagles. This is that minus two for
- 12:24Speaker 1: the Eagles minus two and a half. It's some off
- 12:26Speaker 1: shore books. So usually when you look at all shore books,
- 12:29Speaker 1: that's the pro books because they don't pay taxes on
- 12:31Speaker 1: those winnings. So very interesting to see. Um, you know
- 12:36Speaker 1: that this is like one of these the money keeps
- 12:39Speaker 1: coming on the Eagles where I'm sitting here and nothing's
- 12:41Speaker 1: really changed. I still think you're getting a good number
- 12:43Speaker 1: on the Saints. So at this point, I'm just gonna wait.
- 12:46Speaker 1: I hope this gets up the two and a half
- 12:47Speaker 1: three I legal books. I'll bet it again because you're
- 12:49Speaker 1: getting a good number of the Saints team makes no
- 12:52Speaker 1: sense to me the Saints defense. Saints defense is best
- 12:56Speaker 1: in the NFL rush. All the Eagles can do right
- 12:59Speaker 1: now is run the ball, and their defense is uh holy,
- 13:05Speaker 1: And I don't mean that in the paperway. Yeah, what
- 13:08Speaker 1: the hell are we missing? That's how I don't get.
- 13:09Speaker 1: So it's very interesting. But didn't we feel that way
- 13:12Speaker 1: last week about I think we felt that way last
- 13:15Speaker 1: week about the Saints too. Yeah, we were right though
- 13:19Speaker 1: they landed. I know, so, like, what are we missing? No,
- 13:24Speaker 1: we felt that way last week about the Niners. They
- 13:27Speaker 1: were becoming sort of the the team that all the
- 13:30Speaker 1: wise guys love, that that public wise guy team. Yeah,
- 13:34Speaker 1: and we ended up being spot on. So you know what,
- 13:37Speaker 1: the fucking geniuses doesn't have to be If it comes
- 13:41Speaker 1: Sunday and Chad's like, hey, asshole, put Saints in, I'll
- 13:44Speaker 1: put them in because I'm already bet. I'm already invested
- 13:46Speaker 1: in it. So I'm with you on it alright. This
- 13:48Speaker 1: other one that I love and that I think will
- 13:50Speaker 1: definitely be in our five Colts plus seven plus seven
- 13:55Speaker 1: and a half at the Bills. Yeah, the seven and
- 13:58Speaker 1: a half was a treat down to set been. It's
- 14:00Speaker 1: gonna be down at six and a half probably in
- 14:01Speaker 1: most books by the weekend. It's I think I got
- 14:04Speaker 1: the Colts at seven and a half on Tuesday. Yeah,
- 14:08Speaker 1: and like I, I hit a couple of books or
- 14:10Speaker 1: seven a half. But obviously our good friends, our partners here,
- 14:12Speaker 1: it's where it's stuck at seven for a while. FanDuel.
- 14:14Speaker 1: I think they eventually got to seven a half and
- 14:15Speaker 1: then I got bet down. But anyone, anyone that listened
- 14:18Speaker 1: to the show knows that I've not that I've been
- 14:22Speaker 1: super high on the Colts, but I did. Coming in
- 14:25Speaker 1: the season. I had a higher grade on them most
- 14:26Speaker 1: people did on this cold team didn't work out the
- 14:29Speaker 1: way I played. Carson Wentz got hurt to start the year,
- 14:31Speaker 1: he missed all those reps to start the season. They
- 14:34Speaker 1: were just they came out just sluggish to start the year,
- 14:37Speaker 1: and the last couple of weeks they've been good. They've
- 14:38Speaker 1: been winning their only game they dropped was against that
- 14:41Speaker 1: Tennessee team and the Ravens come back, which we look
- 14:44Speaker 1: back on now, that was just a fluke. The Ravens
- 14:47Speaker 1: they're pretty good, but them to come back like that,
- 14:50Speaker 1: that's that was insane. So when I when I think
- 14:52Speaker 1: of this cold team, I am put a limit on
- 14:54Speaker 1: the money line. It's not gonna be that big of
- 14:55Speaker 1: a money line bet because that's simple reason. They haven't
- 14:58Speaker 1: They have not closed teams out this and so you're
- 15:01Speaker 1: giving me a seven seven a half spread. We of
- 15:03Speaker 1: course love that, but this will be one of those
- 15:06Speaker 1: I'm not gonna do a stand alone in the money line.
- 15:07Speaker 1: I'll just throw it into a round robin or something,
- 15:09Speaker 1: just because the Colts have not been closing teams out.
- 15:11Speaker 1: Frank Reich, he gets tight and when they have these
- 15:14Speaker 1: big leads, he goes away from what's working for the team,
- 15:17Speaker 1: where they'll just say, you know what, we'll run it
- 15:19Speaker 1: twice and then on third and seven, I'll of course
- 15:20Speaker 1: to try to throw it. That's not work. That does
- 15:23Speaker 1: not work for their team. That's that's what's been hurting
- 15:25Speaker 1: them when they get these leads. So I still love
- 15:28Speaker 1: the number we're hoping for some weather too, because that
- 15:30Speaker 1: would really benefit us. We have a great running team
- 15:33Speaker 1: against the Bills team that cannot run the ball. That
- 15:35Speaker 1: that's out of our hands at this point. But a seven,
- 15:38Speaker 1: seven and a half, if you can get that number, yeah,
- 15:40Speaker 1: we're I mean, this is one of these games you
- 15:42Speaker 1: talked on Tuesday, and I had no doubt we would
- 15:44Speaker 1: have as one of our five putting it in. By
- 15:47Speaker 1: the way, we have four games that we love right now.
- 15:50Speaker 1: We're never this locked in on a Thursday. When I
- 15:53Speaker 1: call you Sunday, it's not even gonna be a call,
- 15:55Speaker 1: it's just gonna be a text. We're good, We're good. Yeah. Well,
- 15:59Speaker 1: the toughest part about Sunday always to me always be
- 16:02Speaker 1: I get up at three am Eastern time, which is
- 16:05Speaker 1: midnight veggat time. So by the time I talked to Chad,
- 16:08Speaker 1: you know, on our own call, it's like even thirty,
- 16:11Speaker 1: so I've already been up looking at lines for eight
- 16:13Speaker 1: hours and my mind is just all over the place.
- 16:15Speaker 1: So that's what's good about you, Chad. You kind of
- 16:16Speaker 1: ring me back and you're just like, no, dude, this
- 16:18Speaker 1: is what we said, this is what we're doing. Because
- 16:20Speaker 1: I am not lose my mind at that point. But
- 16:22Speaker 1: it's just so much information. Someday morning it can be
- 16:25Speaker 1: just a bit overwhelming. I'm what you call ballast. Is
- 16:33Speaker 1: that what I would say? Foundation? Yeah, I'm just I'm
- 16:37Speaker 1: here to help what I do. We talked about the
- 16:40Speaker 1: Vikings a lot. Uh, we made it packed with each other.
- 16:48Speaker 1: We will never put the Jags in our top five again,
- 16:53Speaker 1: sticking to it. Okay, okay, because the Jags they were
- 16:57Speaker 1: at seven. You had this game at four and a half. Yeah,
- 17:00Speaker 1: you said you liked it as a money line game,
- 17:02Speaker 1: and the line has moved in our direction. It went
- 17:06Speaker 1: from seven to six. Still like it, but I'm just
- 17:09Speaker 1: I refuse to do it to the fans like I
- 17:11Speaker 1: honestly feel terrible. Um every time we put them in,
- 17:14Speaker 1: they screw us. So I was I'm a man of
- 17:17Speaker 1: my word. I will not put the Jags in, but
- 17:18Speaker 1: yes I am on the Jacks. We talked about the
- 17:22Speaker 1: Raiders and the Bengals. We liked the Raiders. We decided
- 17:25Speaker 1: we were going to wait on it. By the way, Uh,
- 17:28Speaker 1: Niners and Jacks huge pros. Joe's game. All the betting
- 17:32Speaker 1: tickets on the Niners, all the money on the Jags, Bengals,
- 17:37Speaker 1: decent sized pros. Joe's game tickets on the Bengals. Uh
- 17:42Speaker 1: bet money on the Raiders. We wanted to wait on it.
- 17:45Speaker 1: It was a plus one. It's still at plus one. Yeah,
- 17:48Speaker 1: I'm surprised the money is on the Raiders too. I
- 17:50Speaker 1: thought more people be burned by them. But I guess
- 17:52Speaker 1: the pros are just thinking, like I am, this is
- 17:55Speaker 1: this is where you have to take the Raiders. Everything
- 17:57Speaker 1: that could have gone wrong in that game really did.
- 18:00Speaker 1: Everything seriously bounced the Chief's way. The biggest pause would
- 18:04Speaker 1: be you got the Bengals coming off by a week
- 18:07Speaker 1: perfect defense to get right against the second area of
- 18:10Speaker 1: this biggest team is terrible. I look at the other way.
- 18:13Speaker 1: I told you, I really do like this Raiders offensive.
- 18:15Speaker 1: A defensive line. Max Crosby has been playing out of
- 18:18Speaker 1: this world this season. Joe Burrow has no protection. He's
- 18:23Speaker 1: one of the most hit quarterbacks this season, and that's
- 18:25Speaker 1: led to a lot of turnovers from Joe. I think, um,
- 18:28Speaker 1: it's like him and Zach Wilson have seven picks, like
- 18:31Speaker 1: when they throw over twenty yards this season, Like there,
- 18:34Speaker 1: it's way up there because he's forcing the issue trying
- 18:35Speaker 1: to get this team into these games when he's got
- 18:37Speaker 1: a lot of pressure on him. So nothing changed. Still
- 18:40Speaker 1: like this number, My only issue is it's not great value.
- 18:43Speaker 1: I had a right where it pretty much is. I
- 18:45Speaker 1: put this game as a pic. That's where it's sitting
- 18:46Speaker 1: at pretty much. So I'm I've moved the number down
- 18:50Speaker 1: a little bit on Vegas, like I had biggest power,
- 18:52Speaker 1: it a little higher. Now the more I've dived into
- 18:54Speaker 1: their team, it seems like there are a little bit
- 18:57Speaker 1: of They've been bad on als, that's the biggest issues.
- 19:01Speaker 1: So they haven't drafted right now. Their defense is kind
- 19:03Speaker 1: of suffering in that word, they just don't have the
- 19:05Speaker 1: really good pieces in their secondary but we have. I mean,
- 19:08Speaker 1: as a professional, I had to take this number. This
- 19:10Speaker 1: is um such a trap spot for people that are
- 19:13Speaker 1: big Bangos believers, which mean Chad are. I mean, I
- 19:16Speaker 1: bet on them to win the North, so I I
- 19:18Speaker 1: do believe in this team, but just a bad spot
- 19:20Speaker 1: for them they're walking into. I don't know that the
- 19:22Speaker 1: writer is gonna make our final five. Now they're kind
- 19:25Speaker 1: of gross. Right now, they're kind of gross. And I
- 19:28Speaker 1: also think in the next four games, I want to
- 19:30Speaker 1: spend a little bit of time on each one. Seahawks Cardinals.
- 19:34Speaker 1: Tickets still coming in on the Cardinals, money coming in
- 19:36Speaker 1: on the Seahawks. You get the Seahawks at plus two
- 19:39Speaker 1: and a half. Right now, How am I not taking
- 19:42Speaker 1: Seattle in this game? Everything lines up. I don't know
- 19:45Speaker 1: if Kyler Murray is playing. They might sit them out
- 19:47Speaker 1: for one more week because then they get to buy
- 19:49Speaker 1: DeAndre Hopkins didn't practice the Seahawks, Russell Wilson getting shut out.
- 19:54Speaker 1: Of course, this feels like a bye right spot for
- 19:57Speaker 1: the Seahawks. I'm running the other I'll probably end up
- 20:01Speaker 1: on the Cardinals. Even the guys I've talked to now
- 20:03Speaker 1: that are around the Seattle team and like they have insiders,
- 20:07Speaker 1: even they are telling them that Russ at practice, he's
- 20:11Speaker 1: not making the throats, something like his hand just isn't
- 20:13Speaker 1: right yet. So, you know what, I could be dead
- 20:17Speaker 1: wrong by passing on this game. And I get your
- 20:19Speaker 1: reasons for taking the Seahawks, But something's funky here like that,
- 20:23Speaker 1: this line is funky. The bookmakers know what they're doing.
- 20:25Speaker 1: They know they're gonna get a ton of Russ money.
- 20:27Speaker 1: They know that I'm gonna have rust and all my
- 20:28Speaker 1: teasers because you're giving me plus two now at home?
- 20:31Speaker 1: Why would I not tease this up to plus eight?
- 20:33Speaker 1: This is a very fishy, fishy line. So I'm I mean,
- 20:38Speaker 1: they're gonna just stay away, or I'll just tease the Seahawks.
- 20:40Speaker 1: But I'm not. This is one of the few games
- 20:42Speaker 1: I'm not bending straight on the Seahawks. There's I just
- 20:44Speaker 1: don't trust the jujue right now coming out of that team. Yeah,
- 20:49Speaker 1: not a lot of people know, but that's something that's scientific.
- 20:51Speaker 1: It's not it's not just a gambler's feeling. There's real
- 20:55Speaker 1: logic and numbers behind bad jusual. There must be a
- 20:58Speaker 1: little bit, of course, there is. We live in a
- 21:00Speaker 1: world that is powered by electro magnetic energy, right, It's unseen.
- 21:07Speaker 1: It's little pops of static between people, between objects. These
- 21:13Speaker 1: things have power. It's kinetic deep, motherfucker deep. And now
- 21:22Speaker 1: a few words from our friends at fandor. The NFL

- 23:46Speaker 1: Let's get back to the show on the Action Network
- 23:48Speaker 1: podcast Raybon and Stucky Love the Chiefs Love, want to marry?
- 23:54Speaker 1: What what can make them? Especially data wise? Like the
- 23:57Speaker 1: Chiefs everything on paper says this is a prime matchup
- 24:01Speaker 1: for the Cowboys. Cowboys dominate the type of defense that
- 24:04Speaker 1: this Chief's team runs. I mean, just on the run
- 24:07Speaker 1: game alone, statistically, this is going to be a field
- 24:10Speaker 1: day for this Cowboys pass blocking, run blocking offensive line.
- 24:13Speaker 1: So I understand what they're saying. Maybe they're just looking
- 24:16Speaker 1: at this a spot where it's like this is a
- 24:18Speaker 1: good spot to take the Chiefs. They're getting right, they're
- 24:20Speaker 1: coming home. They play teams really well at home. All right,
- 24:23Speaker 1: nothing's changed for me. We'll be on the Cowboys a
- 24:25Speaker 1: plus two and a half. We'll have them in a
- 24:26Speaker 1: couple of teasers as well. I love this position for
- 24:29Speaker 1: this Cowboys offense. Well, I don't, Well we put them
- 24:32Speaker 1: in the contest, I would say no right now, because
- 24:36Speaker 1: again it's a foursome play, but we have to get
- 24:37Speaker 1: in at least one favorite, and right now I have
- 24:39Speaker 1: four underdogs I just like more than this Cowboys one. Well,
- 24:43Speaker 1: the other game that that we might fall in love
- 24:45Speaker 1: with is the Steelers plus five and a half against
- 24:48Speaker 1: the Chargers. Ra Ra Mike Tomlin spot who wins outright
- 24:53Speaker 1: without ben rolphs product? What ra Ra Mike Tomlin spot
- 24:59Speaker 1: the game when the cool bodies right here today from
- 25:03Speaker 1: y'all the game today. Like you know, we always talked
- 25:06Speaker 1: about my time Lynn Grates his two thousand three, but
- 25:09Speaker 1: he's always had Ben Roethlisberger during the entirety of his
- 25:12Speaker 1: coaching career. Without Ben Roethlisberger, he wins out right all
- 25:15Speaker 1: the time as an under dog. It's it's crazy. I'll
- 25:20Speaker 1: get a coaches, like I talked about, I wanted to
- 25:23Speaker 1: take the Charges that minus four, and I like looked
- 25:25Speaker 1: at it for a while and I just couldn't do
- 25:27Speaker 1: it because it thought so gross. And then it shot
- 25:29Speaker 1: away up to five and a half and it made
- 25:30Speaker 1: me really nervous. Where it's like, okay, I've already messed
- 25:33Speaker 1: the best number on the Chargers. Now they're getting a
- 25:35Speaker 1: little overvalued, this Charger's team because everyone's freaking out because
- 25:38Speaker 1: Roethlisberger might be out of this game. But I don't
- 25:41Speaker 1: know I'm gonna end up. I think staying away from
- 25:44Speaker 1: this one. Um, it's a primetime game, and you know
- 25:47Speaker 1: I love prime time dog, so I'll by the time
- 25:49Speaker 1: that kicks off, I'm sure I'll be on this Pittsburg team,
- 25:52Speaker 1: especially if it hits six, which to me is such
- 25:53Speaker 1: a key number. But man, it's it's fishy, fishy, fishy,
- 25:58Speaker 1: fishy line because I get it. Pittsburgh. They're one of
- 26:00Speaker 1: the best running teams in football playing against one of
- 26:02Speaker 1: the worst run defenses all football. Like, that's why you
- 26:05Speaker 1: can't let this line get too high, because if Pittsburgh
- 26:07Speaker 1: gets a lead, they're gonna be able to dominate this matchup.
- 26:10Speaker 1: But the way their defense plays and the way their
- 26:12Speaker 1: offense plays. But for me, I don't know. It's it's
- 26:16Speaker 1: so hard to put money on this game where it's like,
- 26:17Speaker 1: am I really about to bet a decent amount of
- 26:19Speaker 1: money on Mason Rudolph in this position on the road
- 26:22Speaker 1: without t J. Watt on the defense. There's there's just
- 26:25Speaker 1: so many unknowns right now for Pittsburgh that if I
- 26:27Speaker 1: was gonna bet this, I'd wait until Sunday when you
- 26:29Speaker 1: have more information. I love the fase enthusiasm. I' MOUs
- 26:35Speaker 1: say we can make what do you guys quit today? Well, look,
- 26:38Speaker 1: the biggest Prime under Primetime underdog of the week, the
- 26:41Speaker 1: Giants plus eleven and a half on the road at
- 26:43Speaker 1: the Bucks. We got four games that we love right now.
- 26:46Speaker 1: We have not settled on a fifth. It could make
- 26:48Speaker 1: Sunday ugly. I don't know that we're feeling that good
- 26:52Speaker 1: that we want to go Falcons on Thursday night as
- 26:55Speaker 1: home dogs and book end it with Giants plus eleven
- 26:58Speaker 1: and a half on Monday night. We wanted. Actually, I
- 27:00Speaker 1: got a couple of calls on this one from a
- 27:02Speaker 1: couple of pros, so I know a really well known
- 27:04Speaker 1: professional group was coming heavy on the Buccaneers. When I
- 27:06Speaker 1: got down to ten. Now, I'm I just opened it up.
- 27:09Speaker 1: It's up to eleven now, so obviously the bookmakers took
- 27:11Speaker 1: that money pretty damn serious. So damn it because I
- 27:14Speaker 1: did like the Giants. But like when that when a
- 27:16Speaker 1: group that doesn't bet that often that's big on one
- 27:19Speaker 1: side and a primetime game, it usually scares me off.
- 27:22Speaker 1: So I'll probably pass that one. And I know we
- 27:25Speaker 1: didn't give it like, we'll just fly through it real quick.
- 27:28Speaker 1: I still don't hate Cleveland as a big favorite. I
- 27:30Speaker 1: hate Joe Flacco, Chad. Last year, I should on Joe
- 27:33Speaker 1: Flacco constantly. That was my move to talk to you
- 27:35Speaker 1: about Joe Flacco. So I wasn't the Jets. Now I flapped,
- 27:39Speaker 1: I'm in Miami. I took them at three. It's up
- 27:41Speaker 1: to three and a half. Still don't hate that number.
- 27:43Speaker 1: Joe Flacco is bad. He is bad, bad, bad. I
- 27:46Speaker 1: honestly think they're they're looking at the standpoint. They're like, Okay,
- 27:49Speaker 1: this is a veteran quarterback playing against a veteran defense.
- 27:53Speaker 1: Now this is a weird, weird move by this Jets team.
- 27:55Speaker 1: It's like they're openly trying to tank. Now, sitting Mike White,
- 27:58Speaker 1: the guy that upset one for them against Cincinnati Bengals,
- 28:01Speaker 1: and he has one bad week. Now you're out weird
- 28:04Speaker 1: and everything on the Jets is just weird. So for
- 28:07Speaker 1: talking favorites at a real chalky, I do like Miami.
- 28:12Speaker 1: I know it's so chalk, but Joe Flacco awful defense.
- 28:17Speaker 1: This is uh, this is bad, bad, bad for the Jets. Uh.
- 28:20Speaker 1: In reference to our old friend Bob Scucci battered Flacco.
- 28:26Speaker 1: He used to get so beat up that uh Scooch
- 28:31Speaker 1: called him battered Flacco and then we ultimately made it
- 28:34Speaker 1: a dish at the Orleans Uh. In the buffet, it
- 28:39Speaker 1: was like a Pinko crustard flounder or something. I think
- 28:44Speaker 1: I have like crab in there because of the Maryland,
- 28:45Speaker 1: like the Baltimore coun because I thought I always thought
- 28:47Speaker 1: Flacco sounded like battered. Flacco sounded like a fish, you guys,
- 28:54Speaker 1: a fucking fish. And before we keep moving, I just
- 28:57Speaker 1: want to give out. Should we make our big balls
- 28:59Speaker 1: better the week? Atlanta big ball better the week? Like
- 29:07Speaker 1: wrap it off the bandages, get it over with, right,
- 29:09Speaker 1: Let's do it. Let's go with Atlanta. I've never felt
- 29:12Speaker 1: so confident and yet so ready to be asleep by
- 29:18Speaker 1: ten o'clock when the Patriots are up seventy nine to
- 29:21Speaker 1: two because Mac Nipple Jones cannot stop firing darts to
- 29:27Speaker 1: whatever receiver he decides to throw it too. That's Mac
- 29:31Speaker 1: Jones right now. He's a witch nipple quarterback. Now, I mean,
- 29:36Speaker 1: I mean he's on this show for three years. Not
- 29:38Speaker 1: every time we believe in Matt Ryan. This is when
- 29:40Speaker 1: he fox us. But we gotta do it stand alone
- 29:43Speaker 1: primetime game. We have to do it in this position.
- 29:46Speaker 1: He does not deserve our faith. He doesn't. He really doesn't. Silent.
- 29:52Speaker 1: If we were to choose to survive for this week,
- 29:54Speaker 1: who would we choose, assuming we're moving forward, and who's
- 29:58Speaker 1: remaining the survivor pick of the week? Alright, so using
- 30:09Speaker 1: our fictional chart, we'd already sadly used the Browns, which
- 30:13Speaker 1: I really like. Coming into this week. Oh man, this
- 30:17Speaker 1: was a tough, tough, tough one. We didn't use the bus,
- 30:20Speaker 1: which could be a little risky doing against the Giants,
- 30:22Speaker 1: but I feel like it's not. Now, that's not a
- 30:24Speaker 1: risk that such big money is coming on them. Uh.
- 30:27Speaker 1: The other one we could do, that's smart, little risky,
- 30:31Speaker 1: but by Miami Dolphins. They're playing against the Jets. Joe
- 30:34Speaker 1: Flacco just like the pause there, it's on the road
- 30:37Speaker 1: and we don't like, Yeah, this is a this is
- 30:40Speaker 1: the box. You take the box at home Monday night.
- 30:43Speaker 1: Play it safe. I'm not putting my my my mythical
- 30:49Speaker 1: survivor pool pot in the hands of two on the road.
- 30:54Speaker 1: I can't hate it on. If you're I mean again,
- 30:56Speaker 1: me and Chad took Houston, I understand if you're like, no,
- 30:59Speaker 1: I want to take tennis. I'm gonna us Tennessee here.
- 31:01Speaker 1: And then another team, A couple of people reach at
- 31:03Speaker 1: they wanted. They think sleep is a good sleeper for
- 31:05Speaker 1: this would be the Chargers. If Pittsburgh started Mason Rudolph,
- 31:09Speaker 1: that's that's a crazy play. To take the Chargers. He
- 31:12Speaker 1: got bos out. Now for the Chargers, he failed his
- 31:14Speaker 1: COVID test I believe or maybe his close contact he's unvaccinated.
- 31:18Speaker 1: He needs to pass the test either Saturday or Someday morning.
- 31:20Speaker 1: Back in this game again, do not lock in if
- 31:23Speaker 1: you're gonna if you have to lock in your Survivra
- 31:25Speaker 1: pool before this weekend, stay away from the Chargers. Please,
- 31:29Speaker 1: this is it's too high for risk at this point
- 31:31Speaker 1: in the season. Do what Chad's talking about. Just played safe.
- 31:33Speaker 1: Take the Buccan years. Who's gonna money line parlor? I
- 31:37Speaker 1: really give on the Thursdays because a lot of people
- 31:39Speaker 1: don't catch it in time. Do you like Atland his
- 31:40Speaker 1: money line. I'm gonna have a money line around robbing
- 31:43Speaker 1: with them in there. But if you want to skip
- 31:44Speaker 1: that one, I'll go just the Sunday I got Houston,
- 31:47Speaker 1: I got the Colts, I got the Jaguars, which Chat
- 31:50Speaker 1: already did in a three teamer, which is it was
- 31:53Speaker 1: one of my favorite bets from Tuesday started over again.
- 31:55Speaker 1: Houston money line, Colts money line, Jaguars money line, Washington
- 31:59Speaker 1: Football the money line, and if you want to close
- 32:02Speaker 1: it out, the Steelers on Sunday night. Don't hate it,
- 32:04Speaker 1: but again, I would wait to see if it's Roethlisberger.
- 32:07Speaker 1: If that's Roethlisberger, I love that play. If it's not,
- 32:09Speaker 1: I would not put them in. And if you just
- 32:11Speaker 1: gotta force win in because they're out two, you didn't
