  Speaker 1: Everybody welcome the game debut present about Mercedes Ben's packing.
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: Clayb On here with Greg Rosenthal and say the Freeland
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: hope your holiday is safe and filled with whatever food
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: that you enjoy the most. No food arguments on this show.
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: We just we want everybody Greg to get those.
• 0:22
  Speaker 2: Things, eat the food.
• 0:23
  Speaker 3: All food is good if it's prepared the right way.
• 0:25
  Speaker 4: That's what I WI love.
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: Yes, the key ingredient to both food and picking games.
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: Perhaps what's Greg rose with all secret? We don't know,
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: but right now he's in the lead one hundred. I
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: had a Cynthia who's at one twenty fifty nine, and
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: I am pulling up the rear one.
• 0:45
  Speaker 4: Sixteen and sixteen twenty of time left.
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: Well, we'll see. It's gonna be tough.
• 0:49
  Speaker 3: We're not stuffing that thing.
• 0:51
  Speaker 4: You aren't. We didn't.
• 0:53
  Speaker 3: We just stuff you, I guess. So yeah, Greg, No,
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: that's talking.
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: Run across the screen. We're gonna start here. The Eagles
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: still have six games to play.
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: One already has a career high in rushing yards and
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: on the flip side. In Baltimore, another running back whose
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: team didn't want to pay him, neither did the team
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: that he wanted to play for the most Thanks for that.
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: By the way, Who's winning this game?
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: Great man?
• 1:16
  Speaker 5: I went back and forth. I think this is the
• 1:17
  Speaker 5: best game of the year. I'm so excited about we
• 1:19
  Speaker 5: could see it as a super Bowl in a couple
• 1:21
  Speaker 5: of months. I have the Ravens winning twenty four to
• 1:23
  Speaker 5: twenty three. They're the home team, and so I leaned
• 1:26
  Speaker 5: towards him because of that, and because of the coaching matchup. Yes,
• 1:30
  Speaker 5: John Harbaugh and those fourth down decisions that he made
• 1:34
  Speaker 5: in Los Angeles on Monday night just reminded me going
• 1:37
  Speaker 5: into this matchup.
• 1:38
  Speaker 3: Yes, Nick Sirianni is not afraid to go for a.
• 1:40
  Speaker 5: Fourth down, but this Eagles team had been winning easy.
• 1:44
  Speaker 5: It hasn't had a close game in the winning streak
• 1:46
  Speaker 5: since the very beginning against the Browns. And I do
• 1:48
  Speaker 5: think in a game of margins, maybe a game of
• 1:51
  Speaker 5: special teams, a game of decisions, a game of staying
• 1:54
  Speaker 5: cool and calm under pressure. I just trust John Harbaugh
• 1:58
  Speaker 5: a lot more than Nick Sirianni.
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: That was what did it for me. Let's go Ravens.
• 2:02
  Speaker 4: I'm really impressed that you got through that whole thing
• 2:04
  Speaker 4: without saying a game of inches, because it's just like
• 2:07
  Speaker 4: blows off the top. I too have a one point
• 2:09
  Speaker 4: win wow the Ravens, which is wild so different from yours.
• 2:13
  Speaker 4: Twenty five to twenty four. I'm looking at this game
• 2:16
  Speaker 4: and I want to point out just how good Jalen
• 2:18
  Speaker 4: Carter is, because we've talked about it before. But this
• 2:21
  Speaker 4: is a situation where you know, it's not necessarily like
• 2:25
  Speaker 4: Derrick Henry gets a chance to run against a guy
• 2:27
  Speaker 4: like Jalen Carter very often. We're gonna see a little
• 2:30
  Speaker 4: steal on steel match up here. Who is the best
• 2:33
  Speaker 4: of the best, Not really Derrick Henry running to the
• 2:35
  Speaker 4: area that Jalen Carter stands in. But whatever, don't let
• 2:38
  Speaker 4: details get in the way of a good story. I
• 2:39
  Speaker 4: just want to point out that Jalen Carter patrolling the
• 2:42
  Speaker 4: middle is disruptive. He's a huge problem the Baltimore O line.
• 2:46
  Speaker 4: They've had some moments of weakness this year, so if
• 2:49
  Speaker 4: there is an upset and the Eagles do win, it
• 2:52
  Speaker 4: will likely be like some massive Jalen Carter pancake situation.
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: All right, let's keep the trend going, guys. I've got
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: a one point win.
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: We'll cover every number from twenty two to twenty five.
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: I have which on his mind, twenty three to twenty
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: two win by the Baltimore Ravens, because we just saw
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: Saquon Barkley, and we've seen the Eagles have so much
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: success running the ball. They're gonna have to do it
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: against one of the better rush defenses in the entire league.
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: That might get Michael pierceback, the big man on the inside,
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: the nose tackle on coming back. He's been activated off
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: of injured reserve, giving up a ton of explosive plays
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: in the past game, not in the run game, three
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: point three yards per carry overall. Maybe no DeVante Smith
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: enough for me to take the home team, not to
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: mention their quarterback, who I believe is playing some of
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: the best football.
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: And we're in trouble on the memes here this week.
• 3:43
  Speaker 4: We are so in trouble on the memes.
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: But I don't feel comfortable. I'm almost tempted to change
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: my pick, but I am not going to do that.
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: I want you.
• 3:51
  Speaker 4: I want to pick up a game on you.
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: I want no, I don't want well again, all all
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: the Baltimore Ravens, the Eagles fans are going to meme
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: alert us. I feel like the same ones that would
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: meme alert us were the ones a few weeks ago
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: just bemoaning their football team.
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: We're gonna look at the MDP odds.
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: Josh Allen a favorite, Lamar Jackson, Sakuon Barkley, Jared Goff,
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes. Cynthia's waving her arm, I am because you
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: want Jared higher.
• 4:16
  Speaker 4: No, well, I'm just talking about value, your girl. I
• 4:19
  Speaker 4: love blackfart, I hate shopping, but I like a good value.
• 4:22
  Speaker 4: And if you're looking for upside here, Jared Goff's odds
• 4:25
  Speaker 4: are very long. For what He's the only NFC quarterback
• 4:29
  Speaker 4: we know. MVP is typically given to a quarterback that
• 4:32
  Speaker 4: is the only one in the NFC. If they make this, like,
• 4:34
  Speaker 4: just think about I'm not talking about that what I
• 4:37
  Speaker 4: necessarily think, but just the strategy of it all. Put
• 4:39
  Speaker 4: a little Jared Goff in your Portofolio.
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: Yeah, the most vibes based thing, awards wise that you
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: could possibly go for.
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: You gotta pick, you gotta play the vibes.
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: The MVP favorite Josh Allen against Brandon Allen this week.
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: Brock Purty, whoever it is for the five and six
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: nine ers not on any MVP shortlist Greg who do
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: you have on Sunday?
• 4:58
  Speaker 5: I have the Bells winning in a big way thirty
• 5:01
  Speaker 5: to thirteen of party plays.
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: That helps them.
• 5:04
  Speaker 5: But either way, I think the Bills cover a big
• 5:06
  Speaker 5: number because they are one of the best teams in
• 5:08
  Speaker 5: the league upfront, and yes, they are led by their
• 5:10
  Speaker 5: MVP front runner Josh Allen.
• 5:14
  Speaker 3: Now should he be the front runner?
• 5:16
  Speaker 5: It's tough for me but to choose between him, Lamar
• 5:18
  Speaker 5: Jackson and Saquon Barkley. We got a ways to go.
• 5:20
  Speaker 5: We don't need to be in different camps. I'm sick
• 5:22
  Speaker 5: of the Josh Allen people going after the Lamar Jackson
• 5:26
  Speaker 5: people and vice versa.
• 5:28
  Speaker 3: Even Cynthia talking about Jared Gott.
• 5:29
  Speaker 5: I mean, I'm talking about none of these guys had
• 5:32
  Speaker 5: five interception games. I'm just saying Josh Allen is playing
• 5:36
  Speaker 5: awesome and the Niners defense not playing well at all.
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Josh Allen a part of that Bill's ground game
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: as well, which has been very good, and the forty
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: nine Ers run defense has been very pedestrian. I've got
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: the Bills winning this one as well, twenty four to nineteen.
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: It's not just that the forty nine Ers rush defense
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: isn't as good as it once was. It's pretty mad
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: in general, barely better than the Jets run defense in
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: total success right and since Week six they're in the
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: bottom ten in the entire NFL and run defense success rate.
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: And then you look over on the other side where
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: James Cook has been having rush yards over expected top
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: ten right now, tough look for the forty nine ers
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: in this matchup against Buffalo.
• 6:17
  Speaker 4: Well meve it on up, forty nine Ers fans. I
• 6:20
  Speaker 4: to have a win where Buffalo is covering their spread.
• 6:23
  Speaker 4: I have an eight point win, twenty eight to twenty.
• 6:26
  Speaker 4: I just want to give a little love to George Kittle.
• 6:28
  Speaker 4: Though we could say a lot of bad things about
• 6:29
  Speaker 4: the red area, both on offense and defense for the Niners,
• 6:32
  Speaker 4: but I'm not going to. Instead, I'm going to say
• 6:35
  Speaker 4: that George Kittle, no matter who the quarterback is, is
• 6:39
  Speaker 4: the straw that is stirring the drink of this offense
• 6:42
  Speaker 4: this season. He's worth giving some love to on this show.
• 6:45
  Speaker 4: We may not have picked the Niners, but we all
• 6:47
  Speaker 4: believe in what George Kittle brings to the table, the yak,
• 6:51
  Speaker 4: the opportunity to be an inline receiver. He's just really
• 6:54
  Speaker 4: helping his offense out a ton this season. So even
• 6:56
  Speaker 4: though I'm picking against him, I still think he'll have
• 6:58
  Speaker 4: a strong day and an important day for him.
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: Yes, the memes are in and the forty nine ers
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: up against a lot injuries, schedule, everything, so we're all
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: on the Buffalo bill. The Pittsburgh Steelers kicked off the
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: divisional portion of their schedule just two weeks ago. Six
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: of their last eight games or against AFC North opponents.
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: The first two games against Cincy starts on Sunday.
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: Do they win it, Cynthia?
• 7:20
  Speaker 4: They sure do, twenty five to twenty two in this
• 7:24
  Speaker 4: matchup twenty three. Excuse me a two point win. When
• 7:27
  Speaker 4: I'm looking at the opportunity here to make decisions, I
• 7:30
  Speaker 4: think both teams have some trends to watch. Number one,
• 7:33
  Speaker 4: we saw some weird stuff last week. And I know
• 7:35
  Speaker 4: it was snowing and maybe you didn't catch it, but
• 7:37
  Speaker 4: it was actually Justin Fields who was throwing passes in
• 7:40
  Speaker 4: the snow late in the game. Perhaps this is a
• 7:43
  Speaker 4: victim of overthinking things. Maybe you want to use the
• 7:46
  Speaker 4: guy Russell Wilson, who has kind of the best stats
• 7:49
  Speaker 4: and actually many of the best stats in the fourth
• 7:51
  Speaker 4: quarter in the league at the end of the game,
• 7:54
  Speaker 4: just a thought. I don't think that that will happen
• 7:56
  Speaker 4: again in this matchup, especially if we can see who's
• 7:58
  Speaker 4: playing now on the other side. I have a lot
• 8:00
  Speaker 4: of arguments that could be made for lou Anrumo being
• 8:03
  Speaker 4: the best defense coordinator at making in game adjustments. So
• 8:06
  Speaker 4: the difference between the second half and the first half.
• 8:09
  Speaker 4: The problem is, there is still a reason that Russell
• 8:11
  Speaker 4: Wilson is the best in the fourth quarter. So I
• 8:13
  Speaker 4: think there are still too many deficiencies on that Bengals defense,
• 8:17
  Speaker 4: and the Steelers take this one.
• 8:19
  Speaker 5: So I gotta admit the longer the week went on,
• 8:21
  Speaker 5: I've grown increasingly uncomfortable with my own pick, and that
• 8:25
  Speaker 5: is that the Bengals find a way to win this
• 8:26
  Speaker 5: game and keep their season live twenty four to twenty
• 8:29
  Speaker 5: in part because I'm not quite buying what Cynthia is
• 8:32
  Speaker 5: selling with the Steelers' offense. Russell Wilson in the Steelers
• 8:36
  Speaker 5: offense hasn't been running the ball well. Now that's not
• 8:39
  Speaker 5: Wilson's fault, that's the offensive line, but it's been inconsistent.
• 8:42
  Speaker 5: They had seven quarters without scoring a touchdown. Naje Harris
• 8:45
  Speaker 5: not really getting it done in the red zone, Russell
• 8:48
  Speaker 5: Wilson four to four to eleven in those seven quarters
• 8:52
  Speaker 5: where they did not score a touchdown. And I think
• 8:54
  Speaker 5: bringing in Justin Fields makes sense because he can be
• 8:58
  Speaker 5: a weapon in the red zone. Maybe you don't want
• 9:00
  Speaker 5: to use him on other parts of the field. I
• 9:02
  Speaker 5: don't know, but the young offensive life that we thought
• 9:04
  Speaker 5: was coming together hasn't been great. And I do think
• 9:08
  Speaker 5: the Bengals get it done because of their offense.
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm actually with Greg here.
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: I think the Bengals win it twenty one to twenty
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: finally a win because I went and looked at some headlines.
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: The Arizona Republic called the Week ten game against.
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: The Baltimore Ravens a must win. They lost.
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: Then the Aflon Sports said it was a must win,
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: and so far against.
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: The Chargers they lost.
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: This actually is a must win because I think their
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: opportunity to go to the playoffs, the playoff percentage chances
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: drops significantly.
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: It helps. They have a really good player, Jamar.
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: Chase, who has four in with ninety three yards after
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: the catch this season. To compare that to a player
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: who just has like Davante Adams, he has six more
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: receiving yards than DeVante Adams does just with yards after
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: the catch. I think the Bengals use that offense to
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: go off against the Steelers team and get a win.
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: So this is a prime number for since do the
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: thing you.
• 9:56
  Speaker 3: Know you love it, d D.
• 9:58
  Speaker 4: I'm very happy about my prime number.
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: Steelers Bengals.
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: One of six divisional games in week thirteen and including
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: in Kansas City where the Raiders had the arrowhead.
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: Black.
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: Friday Football on Prime is back. It's also here, Max Crosby.
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: I'm here the Las Vegas Radars Raiders against Patrick Mahomes
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: and the Kansas City Chiefs this Friday at three o'clock
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: PM Eastern only on Prime Video. All right, rousing endorsement
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: from the Raiders head coaches Don for quick picks. Greg,
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: it looks like an O'Connell is bad for the Raiders.
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: How does that impact your score?
• 10:32
  Speaker 3: Not at all? Oh, twenty seven to seventeen.
• 10:35
  Speaker 5: It's a bigger deal that Isaiah Pacheco is back on
• 10:39
  Speaker 5: the field. He's here for the Chiefs this week. They
• 10:42
  Speaker 5: need some explosions, especially in their backfield. Kareem Hunt came
• 10:45
  Speaker 5: in has helped them out a lot think he'd be
• 10:47
  Speaker 5: better used in short yardage.
• 10:49
  Speaker 3: Maybe a little less is more situation.
• 10:50
  Speaker 5: Pachecko can give you big plays in the passing game,
• 10:54
  Speaker 5: big plays in the running game, and they just need
• 10:56
  Speaker 5: some youth, some speed, some tackle breaking ability. This offense
• 11:00
  Speaker 5: has been efficient, it has not been explosive Isaiah Pachecko
• 11:03
  Speaker 5: can give you. And the casual way that Antonio Piers
• 11:06
  Speaker 5: said they're the worst team in the league, it actually
• 11:08
  Speaker 5: wasn't really a motivational thing. That's not making me feel
• 11:11
  Speaker 5: good if I'm a Raiders fan.
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: All right, let's go to Cyber Monday, Cynthia, where the.
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: Very very red hot Denver Broncos are taking on the
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: Cleveland Browns.
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: What do you see happening?
• 11:21
  Speaker 4: Ooh, I see a touchdown win. In my most normal
• 11:24
  Speaker 4: football scorer of the entire week twenty four to seventeen,
• 11:28
  Speaker 4: it's so interesting to watch what happens when bow Knicks
• 11:31
  Speaker 4: targets Courtland Sutton on go routes, as in touchdowns, as
• 11:35
  Speaker 4: in receptions, as in deep passes, as in all of
• 11:37
  Speaker 4: the things that you like to see from more veteran quarterbacks.
• 11:40
  Speaker 4: Bow Nix now has five games with two or more
• 11:43
  Speaker 4: passing touchdowns without an interception. Does he make it six?
• 11:47
  Speaker 4: This is a good opportunity, especially when he passes to
• 11:50
  Speaker 4: Courtland Sutton.
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: In the thick of that playoff race in the AFC.
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: Let's finish things up in the AFC West with the
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: Chargers in Atlanta to take on the Falcons, and we've
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: all got the bolts in this one. I like the
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: Chargers twenty two to nineteen with a due dude that's
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: playing great ball right now, justin Herbert. I think his teammates,
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: especially the pass catchers, actually catch the passes, have a
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: bounce back performance in Atlanta, where the difficulties rushing the
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: passer are well documented. And perhaps it was that performance
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: in Denver that has convinced all of us to take
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: the Chargers here.
• 12:22
  Speaker 5: Wow, on the road, Falcons fans, you're right, we don't
• 12:25
  Speaker 5: believe in you.
• 12:26
  Speaker 4: This is how I'm surprised, none of us in a vacuum.
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: In this game. We're not making overall commentary about the franchise.
• 12:33
  Speaker 3: Now, but I am about the twenty twenty four Falcons.
• 12:36
  Speaker 3: I don't believe in them. Bucks win the division.
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: That's Greg, that's not us. The statements represented by Greg
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: Rosenthal only.
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: Represent they don't have a lot of fond memories of
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: Patriots football. Vince Wilford causing commands but to move at
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: such a velocity that Mark Sanchez fumbled and Rex Ryan
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: had another one of his sixty six career losses that
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: was great, the Buck fumble and Classic Thanksgiving. We're just
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: hours away from the John Madden Thanksgiving celebration.
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: Three games on Thanksgiving. The NFL Network has got you
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: covered all day.
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: Wake up Well, Good Morning Football at eight am, followed
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: by Game Day Morning.
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: Cynthia will be there, so you should watch that show.
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: Then Cash Game Day Highlights after the Lions and the
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: Cowboys games, and Game Day Final with Me after the Packers.
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: Fear not. Greg Rosenthal doesn't have the day off.
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: He's recording NFL Daily from home, which we occasionally let
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: Greg go to that place like and subscribe.
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: Everybody, Thank you.
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: It's Sign for Mike, presented by the Wells Fargo Active
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: Cash credit Card collective Willpower as we get to look
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: at some really good duos six hundred rushing yards and
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: ten or more rushing touchdowns. The only one team represented
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: on this board twice, and that is Cynthia Freeland's Detroit
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: Lions the question as we get to this guy or
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: that guy, Cynthia, which one of the Lions running backs
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: gets into the end zone against Chicago?
• 14:00
  Speaker 4: Both of them. Oh, but the one that I want
• 14:02
  Speaker 4: to talk about is Jimier Gibbs in this matchup. Why
• 14:05
  Speaker 4: it's all about those explosive runs. It's all about the
• 14:08
  Speaker 4: potential in the pass catching game. I like both of
• 14:11
  Speaker 4: the I truly actually do like both of them to
• 14:13
  Speaker 4: get in the end zone. I'm always a little worried
• 14:15
  Speaker 4: when someone leaves with an injury, even if they say
• 14:17
  Speaker 4: that they that they're going, they could have come back
• 14:20
  Speaker 4: in But for the score. However, I think that the
• 14:23
  Speaker 4: Jamiir Gibbs, He's my second highest rated running back for
• 14:26
  Speaker 4: the entire week. So I mean, and with celebrations like this,
• 14:30
  Speaker 4: what could go wrong?
• 14:30
  Speaker 5: My son drafted both Jamir Gibbs and David Montgomery Walker's
• 14:34
  Speaker 5: here today, and they scored.
• 14:35
  Speaker 3: A touchdown together in nine weeks this season, so as
• 14:38
  Speaker 3: a winning strategy.
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: My only beef there is they played the ram.
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: You gotta do that celebration against an LA team, so
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: you can step over Tyron either way. Greg Ceedee Lamb
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: and Malik Neighbors, both playing with backup quarterbacks, which one
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: is more likely to get more than six.
• 14:54
  Speaker 3: I think it's Ceedee Lamb.
• 14:56
  Speaker 5: I like the way Mike McCarthy used Cede Lamb early
• 14:59
  Speaker 5: in that game.
• 14:59
  Speaker 3: Louvium all around. He's been criticized for that, and last
• 15:03
  Speaker 3: week CD played a lot of energy.
• 15:05
  Speaker 5: He's got a back like an armadillo, as Dan Campbell
• 15:07
  Speaker 5: was saying there, I don't know if you guys have
• 15:09
  Speaker 5: ever seen an armadillo in person. Very strange animals, not
• 15:12
  Speaker 5: what you expect, much less athletic and cool to watch
• 15:16
  Speaker 5: compared to CD League. A lot of times single coverage
• 15:19
  Speaker 5: the Giants, Leviyan like man to man.
• 15:21
  Speaker 3: That's not gonna work against CD.
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it doesn't work against Cooper Rush either. It completed
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: all these passes against van coverage last week. I gave
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: Greg that one so I could take this one. Tyreek
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: or Jayden Reid to catch a touchdown on Thanksgiving. I
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: like Tyreek Hill. I recognize that he hasn't gotten in
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: the end zone a lot recently, but neither has Jayden Reid.
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: And with Jalen Waddell demanding more attention after his huge
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: game last week, as well as the emergence of John
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: hu Smith.
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: I think that there's more attention.
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: That has to be paid to the other pass catchers,
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: and maybe Tyreek gets in the paint and tries to
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: take a leap in Lambeau as well. Looking forward to
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: those games, and folks, we're looking forward to Game Day morning.
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: Coming up Thursday at ten am Eastern.
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: Rich Eisen, Steve Mariucci, Kurt Warner, Cynthia Freeland, who has
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: pictured on this graphic.
• 16:07
  Speaker 3: There's less maybe on this week. I like it.
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: Maybe not as tall as things were last week.
• 16:12
  Speaker 4: Colleen is taller than I.
• 16:14
  Speaker 3: It's getting it's a.
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: Large version of Colleen.
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: The whole squad gets you set for all the games,
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: and that's on the third end.
• 16:20
  Speaker 3: Well.
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: John Madden Thanksgiving celebration Live reports from Bears, Lions and Giants, Cowboys,
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: plus a look back at some of John Madden's most
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: memorable calls. Thursday at ten am Eastern. Also featured on
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: that graphic, Kurt Warner his Rams in New Orleans. The
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: Saints are home underdogs. Both teams need a win to
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: stay in the mix for a playoff spot, which one gets.
• 16:40
  Speaker 4: At Cynthia, Okay, so in my regular model, I have
• 16:42
  Speaker 4: a Rams win by one point. I've been playing with
• 16:44
  Speaker 4: this Ats model because we're allowed to talk about that
• 16:47
  Speaker 4: this year, and in that one, the Rams win by
• 16:49
  Speaker 4: even more. I feel very strongly about that. Why because
• 16:53
  Speaker 4: of Yack both yards after the catch and yards after contact.
• 16:57
  Speaker 4: This is a team in the Saints, and even though
• 17:00
  Speaker 4: they had the like the Rizzy infusion of excitement, they
• 17:03
  Speaker 4: still have been missing tackles at an extremely high rate
• 17:07
  Speaker 4: in both phases of the game. You are seeing Pukinakua
• 17:10
  Speaker 4: right now. We could also be showing Cooper Cup. We
• 17:12
  Speaker 4: could also be showing Kyron Williams. Heck, we could even
• 17:15
  Speaker 4: show a tight end in the situation. So ultimately, it
• 17:18
  Speaker 4: is the opportunity for the playmakers to get yards after
• 17:22
  Speaker 4: whatever thing they're trying to do, be it a run
• 17:24
  Speaker 4: or a pass. That informs this one for me.
• 17:26
  Speaker 5: You know, I see Rams Saints in the Superdome and
• 17:30
  Speaker 5: I think super Bowl.
• 17:31
  Speaker 3: No, I don't think that's happening.
• 17:33
  Speaker 5: But they have played big games, you know what I'm
• 17:34
  Speaker 5: talking about, the NFC champions.
• 17:36
  Speaker 3: Oh no, let's just take it back.
• 17:38
  Speaker 5: This one a troubling moment in boy NFL history. Frankly,
• 17:43
  Speaker 5: I always wonder would the Saints have beaten those Patriots
• 17:46
  Speaker 5: that year in the Super Bowl.
• 17:47
  Speaker 3: I think they would have had a chance.
• 17:49
  Speaker 5: Sean McVay when he goes to New Orleans, he brings
• 17:52
  Speaker 5: some sort of voodoo. It's strong, it's powerful, It gets
• 17:56
  Speaker 5: lucky calls, maybe lucky games, even against the greats like
• 18:00
  Speaker 5: Drew Brees. So if he could beat Drew Brees, you
• 18:01
  Speaker 5: know it could beat Derek Carr and Darren Rizzy. Rizzie
• 18:04
  Speaker 5: ball is a force stronger than most out there. But
• 18:08
  Speaker 5: this Rams team, I think they're the best bad team
• 18:11
  Speaker 5: in the league. They beat the bad teams and maybe
• 18:14
  Speaker 5: they're not ready to beat the good teams, but I
• 18:16
  Speaker 5: think they get to six and six and they stay relevant.
• 18:18
  Speaker 5: Remember that exciting young Sean mcfay. He's gonna get it done.
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: He's still exciting.
• 18:25
  Speaker 5: He doesn't seem as like exciting like he's just been
• 18:28
  Speaker 5: through a lot, you know what I mean.
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: Well, the Saints franchise has been through a lot recently.
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: If Darrenrizzy is able to get his third win, he
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: will have a third of the best wins total in
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: a season that the previous head coach ever had in
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: Dennis Allen. But I am also taking the Los Angeles
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: rams here twenty three to twenty on the strength of
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: a pass rush in a really great rookie matchup here,
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: as Jared Verse has the most pressures of any rookie,
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: twelve more than any other rookie to be precise, and
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: Saints rookie to last, Fuaga's pressure rate.
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: Is the lowest among rookies.
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: A great matchup to watch there, But I think the
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: high powered ability of this rams offense as well as
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: the veteran talent making the push there, and they're able
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: to get a win in the Superdome.
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: So we were all on the La.
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: Rams Don for quick picks here on game debut, Cynthia.
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: We got six games left and only six minutes to
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: get through them.
• 19:18
  Speaker 2: This is why we call it quick picks. So Cardinals Vikings.
• 19:21
  Speaker 4: Please the Vikings by five. I hear, this is a
• 19:24
  Speaker 4: prime number. Okay, give it to me. I love every
• 19:28
  Speaker 4: bit of this. Let's just talk about Jordan Addison, who
• 19:30
  Speaker 4: did that incredible dance that we saw coming into this segment.
• 19:34
  Speaker 4: I couldn't do that. Maybe a little too old for that.
• 19:36
  Speaker 4: But ultimately what I'm talking about is the fact that
• 19:39
  Speaker 4: they have all of their pass catchers in lockstep. Now,
• 19:43
  Speaker 4: we saw a massive game from Jordan Addison, We saw
• 19:45
  Speaker 4: the first one hundred yard game from TJ. Hockinson. You know,
• 19:48
  Speaker 4: justin Jefferson's still there. Maybe they'll have to, you know,
• 19:51
  Speaker 4: give him a few extra steps on the defense because
• 19:53
  Speaker 4: everyone else is catching passes five points. How on earth
• 19:57
  Speaker 4: are you letting me do this? I'm a favorite at home.
• 20:01
  Speaker 3: It's disrespectful just to this game that's in quick. This
• 20:04
  Speaker 3: is a great game.
• 20:05
  Speaker 5: Fine vikings, but I think that the Cardinals syre gonna bound.
• 20:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: I generally have questionable decision making, So that's why I
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: chose that the Seahawks Jets. We all like Seattle to win,
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: largely because not big fans Jets offense. Only one of us,
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: in Cynthia, has them scoring more than twenty points, and
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: she's just giving them twenty one points.
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: And now the.
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: Task is taking on a Seahawks defense that's giving up
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: less than twelve.
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: Points a game. Since the buye And yes.
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: I choose to talk about the Seahawks defense and maybe
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: not the three to eight team that.
• 20:35
  Speaker 2: Gets more discussion. That's probably warranted. Greg.
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: Let's go to the Bucks and the Panthers. The Panthers
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: almost beat the Chiefs until mahomes Is did Mahomesy and things.
• 20:45
  Speaker 2: Can they knock off the Bucks this week?
• 20:46
  Speaker 3: They can.
• 20:47
  Speaker 5: I don't have them doing it, but I do have
• 20:48
  Speaker 5: them covering the number thirty to twenty six. Because as
• 20:52
  Speaker 5: great as Bryce Young is playing right now, and he's
• 20:54
  Speaker 5: stepped up a level, Baker Mayfield has been at that
• 20:57
  Speaker 5: level for a while.
• 20:58
  Speaker 3: This season.
• 20:59
  Speaker 5: Mike Evans comes back into the mix and he plays
• 21:03
  Speaker 5: even better.
• 21:03
  Speaker 3: He's right and all over the Giants.
• 21:05
  Speaker 5: He's making good decisions, he's getting rid of the ball,
• 21:07
  Speaker 5: and he's making you know about it. If you're gonna win,
• 21:10
  Speaker 5: make sure they know. And there's a lot of winning
• 21:13
  Speaker 5: against this Panthers defense. I think Bryce Young can keep
• 21:15
  Speaker 5: up in a shootout. It's just his defense is maybe
• 21:18
  Speaker 5: the worst in the league. Bucks defense not at that level.
• 21:21
  Speaker 5: Tampa gets to win, they might win this division.
• 21:23
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: Let's look over at some games that we don't necessarily
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: think are very high scoring.
• 21:27
  Speaker 2: You guys laugh to my thirteen twelve score.
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: Folks in Gravegas agree the over under thirty seven and
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: a half for Giants, Cowboys, Brown's Broncos right behind them,
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: and then the Colts and Patriots at forty two and
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: a half, last number on that board. Speaking of numbers,
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: let's discuss over or under here. On game day, you
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: will start with one of those games, the Colts and
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: the Patriots.
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: I've got the over at forty two.
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: And a half because I think the Colts will score
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: and we've seen these teams beat around that area. But
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: I think the Colts offense is enough to get us
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: over that number.
• 22:00
  Speaker 5: Yeah, Colts Patriots, a little AFC East rivalry re nude
• 22:04
  Speaker 5: from back in the day. These two quarterbacks are playing outstanding.
• 22:07
  Speaker 5: I don't trust the Patriots defense at Also, I have
• 22:10
  Speaker 5: a big Colts victory, but I think Drake May gets
• 22:13
  Speaker 5: it done enough on offense to get to the number.
• 22:15
  Speaker 3: I do not.
• 22:16
  Speaker 4: I have the under in this one. I think it's
• 22:18
  Speaker 4: gonna be a nice day for you know, potentially watching
• 22:21
  Speaker 4: running backs Jonathan Taylor forecast to have a nice one
• 22:24
  Speaker 4: in this one. Samee with Ramandre Stevenson. So more running,
• 22:26
  Speaker 4: fewer positions. It's just less then less.
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: Then let's go to the Titans and Commanders. The Washington
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: team losing three straight. They'll go into the buy with
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: a win, I believe, But I'm also taking the under
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: in this one. I think the Titans will try to
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: keep Jaden Daniels and the Washington Commanders off the field
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: and pound Tony Pollard on the ground, as well as
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: late season Cliff not necessarily scoring that many points, So
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: I've got the under.
• 22:51
  Speaker 5: One of my favorite picks of the week is the
• 22:53
  Speaker 5: Titans covering this spread, maybe even winning outright, and it's
• 22:56
  Speaker 5: going to be a low scoring game. Twenty one to
• 22:58
  Speaker 5: twenty is the score that I have in this one.
• 23:00
  Speaker 5: The Titans are outstanding at one thing as a team.
• 23:03
  Speaker 3: And that's oping the run.
• 23:05
  Speaker 5: And if you stop Washington and make them one dimensional,
• 23:07
  Speaker 5: it's going to be tough for them to win, tough
• 23:09
  Speaker 5: for them to score.
• 23:10
  Speaker 3: Twenty one twenty. I think it's gonna be a close one.
• 23:12
  Speaker 4: I agree with you that the Titans keep it close,
• 23:15
  Speaker 4: but I think it's more. I think they keep it
• 23:16
  Speaker 4: close because they score. And I think jayde and Daniels.
• 23:19
  Speaker 4: I watched him both rush for seventy four yards last
• 23:21
  Speaker 4: week and pass a late touchdown to Terry McLaurin a
• 23:24
  Speaker 4: deep one too, so high leverage situations. I think both
• 23:27
  Speaker 4: quarterbacks can show you a little something here. I mean, plus,
• 23:30
  Speaker 4: we know will. It was just like likes a lot
• 23:31
  Speaker 4: of craziness.
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: All right, Let's go to the last one here the
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: Texans and the Jags, where I am taking the under again.
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: I've got twenty three to eighteen, which adds up to
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: forty one.
• 23:43
  Speaker 2: Which is under forty three. So that's that's my excuse
• 23:46
  Speaker 2: that I can count.
• 23:47
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna take it the underd I am going way over.
• 23:50
  Speaker 5: Like I said, my sun Walker's in the crowd here
• 23:52
  Speaker 5: today a live studio audience. Is Texans, which have really
• 23:55
  Speaker 5: been bubbing him out, are going to give him something
• 23:57
  Speaker 5: to cheer about this weekend.
• 23:58
  Speaker 3: Four touchdowns for C. D.
• 24:00
  Speaker 5: Stroud all Tonico Collins, fantasy points galore for the Stack,
• 24:04
  Speaker 5: and the Texans get off the schneid and they go
• 24:07
  Speaker 5: into the buy feeling good in a high scoring game.
• 24:09
  Speaker 4: I love Walker's reaction right now. It's kind of like this.
• 24:11
  Speaker 4: I also have more points than the number. I have
• 24:14
  Speaker 4: a Nico Collins slashdown. But let's not forget about Joe Mixon.
• 24:17
  Speaker 4: This team goes the way of Joe Mixon. I think
• 24:20
  Speaker 4: he has a massive game as well. I think he
• 24:22
  Speaker 4: could see the end zone twice.
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: Walker feels good about our tech O Tappy. He doesn't
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: like my point total, but the fact that the stack
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: of Nico Collins and CJ. Stroud is going to combine
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: for like eighty fantasy points, that that works.
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: Out, folks. We've got more to come here on Game Debut.
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: In fact, last week I told you to write it
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: down that Gordon and Sutton would have a big day
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: against the Raiders.
• 24:42
  Speaker 2: Nailed it. So what are you writing down this week?
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: This is a tease. I'm not gonna tell you. You
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: gotta stick around for the answer here on Game Debut. Oh,
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: simply the absolute best, folks. Thursday, ten am Eastern. Rich Ousen, Steve,
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: Mary Yucci, Kurt Warner, Cendia Freeland and friends. Get you
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: set for all the games on the third annual John
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: Madden Thanksgiving Celebration.
• 25:02
  Speaker 2: Live reports from Bear's Line and.
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: Giants Cowboys, plus I look back at some of John
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: Madden's most memorable calls.
• 25:09
  Speaker 2: Thursday at ten a m. Eastern.
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: Time for us to make our calls as we get
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: to write this down some surefire, we hope predictions for
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: He's starting with Greg Roseen.
• 25:20
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm on a one game winning streak.
• 25:22
  Speaker 5: Finally got to write this down to hit last week,
• 25:24
  Speaker 5: and we're gonna have it happen again in a Packers game.
• 25:27
  Speaker 5: This time it's Tua tongue of I Looa. I know
• 25:29
  Speaker 5: I went against Miami earlier, but I think they cover
• 25:31
  Speaker 5: the spread, and I think they do it with a
• 25:32
  Speaker 5: lot of passing yards from Tua Tongue of I Looa.
• 25:35
  Speaker 5: This Packers defense, no JayR Alexander, no Edger and Cooper.
• 25:39
  Speaker 5: I think the Dolphins could be trailing in this game.
• 25:41
  Speaker 5: So Tua is throwing quite a bit. He's very efficient.
• 25:45
  Speaker 5: They can't run the ball at all in Miami, so
• 25:48
  Speaker 5: it's all passing all the time. Tua goes over his
• 25:51
  Speaker 5: two hundred and forty passing yards.
• 25:53
  Speaker 4: What you like Dolphins golf so badly? I'm being a homer.
• 25:57
  Speaker 4: Why because I can and the matt supports it, Jared Goff.
• 26:01
  Speaker 4: He's going to have at least two passing touchdowns. It's
• 26:04
  Speaker 4: going to just be more than one and a half
• 26:06
  Speaker 4: passing touchdowns. If you look at some of the coverages
• 26:08
  Speaker 4: that the Bears put on the field, well you know
• 26:10
  Speaker 4: who's great at diagnosing them and dicing them up. As
• 26:13
  Speaker 4: you would say, Jared Goff. I think the opportunity here
• 26:16
  Speaker 4: for aman Rossney Brown to show up and show out
• 26:19
  Speaker 4: at home on Thanksgiving and their first winning eight seasons.
• 26:22
  Speaker 5: Let's go, Jared, don't embarrass Cynthia huge stakes because the
• 26:26
  Speaker 5: last time a team has won the thing that Cynthia
• 26:29
  Speaker 5: doesn't say and played on Thanksgiving was.
• 26:32
  Speaker 2: Nineteen ninety five to ninety five Cowboys.
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: My write this down, which is very important to me
• 26:36
