Transcript
- 0:06Welcome to Nate's Daily Wager. I ain't picking winners, but I
- 0:10am making wagers. Time to put my money where my
- 0:13mouth is. This is Nate's Daily Wager for
- 0:25November 26th, 2023. And nice win for us yesterday,
- 0:32Thanks to the Terps taking care of business up there against
- 0:36University of New Jersey and getting us the win.
- 0:40It was a pretty good day overall, but it's always nice to
- 0:45end up in the West column. All right.
- 0:47So today we got the professionals playing Sunday
- 0:51last day of the big long weekend.
- 0:54And you know me, Where do I like to go?
- 0:57All the way to the bottom. And today we have the equivalent
- 1:01of Timmy fighting Jimmy. We got the Titans taking on the
- 1:08Panthers. And this, I mean this is just
- 1:13all the horrible marks of what I love to bet on.
- 1:16Like we got two teams that are inept in in more ways than
- 1:19possible, it would seem, and still be professionals.
- 1:23And they're playing each other. So I'm looking at the total.
- 1:27It's currently sitting at 36 1/2 and there ain't no way both of
- 1:31these teams are making it to 20. So I'm going to take the under.
- 1:35So we're going under 36 1/2 total points between Timmy and
- 1:41Jimmy. That's the Panthers and the
- 1:44Titans in today's NFL football action is anything better than
- 1:48that. Found it.
- 1:49That's my pick and I'm sticking to it.
- 1:52And. Cousin Vinnie, what do you got
- 1:54for the folks? I know you've been making people
- 1:56money, so they should be listening to you and Gaffer.
- 2:00Drop your knowledge, boys. You calls and Vinnie, Week 12,
- 2:14your lock of the week. Hey, we're rolling strong here.
- 2:17We're hot. We're eight and three in the
- 2:18season. I'm picking winners.
- 2:20I hope you're pulling in that cheddar.
- 2:22I hope you're taking it to the bank.
- 2:23I hope you're locking it up. All right, so let's keep it
- 2:26going. Look at the slate of games.
- 2:29What a crap slate of games. A lot of games were played on
- 2:34Thanksgiving light schedule here in the Sunday.
- 2:37A lot of teams without quarterbacks, a lot of just piss
- 2:41poor matchups. But the two of the games on the
- 2:44schedule today that actually have meaning.
- 2:48I'm going to circle and look and zone in on a teaser.
- 2:51The first game is the Jacksonville, Houston Texans
- 2:55game. Houston's getting a point and
- 2:571/2 at home, home dog. And then you have the night game
- 3:02of Baltimore heading to to San Diego or LA where the heck they
- 3:08play to play. The Chargers.
- 3:11They're getting, are they getting three points?
- 3:15Yeah, three points still. But yeah, what I want to do here
- 3:20is I'm going to tease both of the home dogs, all right?
- 3:26I just love, I really like Houston them as a standalone,
- 3:30but you tease them up to 7 1/2 points.
- 3:33I just it's going to be a tight game and I and I see CJ Stroud's
- 3:36going to at least bring them back into the game, even if they
- 3:40are behind well within the 7 1/2 points.
- 3:42I love that half point. And then in the other game you
- 3:45had the Chargers. You can't play defense, but they
- 3:48can score points. Justin Herbert always just, you
- 3:51know, chucking the ball all over the place, you know, I think
- 3:55they can keep it within 9. Baltimore's got a couple
- 3:58injuries. Jackson's a little banged up.
- 4:01They might be a little apprehensive on running him.
- 4:04Andrews is out. You know, I just like the
- 4:07Chargers to keep it a game. And at 9 points I I would really
- 4:12really be surprised. If they don't make a game of it
- 4:16outright, let alone stay in a nine point threshold.
- 4:18So just to review, we're going to take the home dog teaser, the
- 4:25Texans getting 7 1/2 against Jacksonville and the Chargers
- 4:30getting nine points against Baltimore.
- 4:34So until next week, it's Cousin Vinny with your lock of the
- 4:37week. Ladies and gentlemen, the gaffer
- 4:50is back. English Premier League returns
- 4:53after a two week international break.
- 4:56Had some good games yesterday. You got a game going on right
- 4:59now with the villains in Tottenham.
- 5:01The surprising Hotspurs are taking on the villains right
- 5:04now. The better game though, the
- 5:06least, the more intriguing game is going to be in about.
- 5:09Two hours. We got Manchester United, the
- 5:11Red Devils taking on Everton, the other team from Liverpool.
- 5:16Gaff is going to let you know the odd result here is going to
- 5:19be a tie. That's right, like kissing your
- 5:22sister. No one's going to get the three
- 5:24points. They're each going to come with
- 5:25a point. Everton at home is going to just
- 5:27kind of get everybody behind the ball.
- 5:29Everybody's going to be playing defense.
- 5:31Not going to be a lot of goals. 00 is the end result a tie.
- 5:35Good luck. You're going to need it.
