- 0:01Speaker 2: Welcome, everybody.
- 0:01Speaker 1: The best betting show ever. If you've never seen the show,
- 0:04Speaker 1: this is not how the graphics work. Joe Ranieri, my
- 0:08Speaker 1: regular co-host with Art DeCesar, couldn't make it today. Family issue.
- 0:13Speaker 1: Art and I, it's going to be an abbreviated show.
- 0:17Speaker 1: We're going to get straight to it. Art DeCesar, we're
- 0:20Speaker 1: going to talk every NFL game of the board. That's
- 0:23Speaker 1: our focus today. But before we get into that, How
- 0:27Speaker 1: did betters do last night? How did the books do
- 0:30Speaker 1: last night? And what did you think of the Denver Broncos?
- 0:33Speaker 2: Well, that was a hard, hard watch. If you're a
- 0:35Speaker 2: Broncos fan, I think I, my big takeaway was like
- 0:39Speaker 2: Bo Nick straight Drake may, when we started anointing these
- 0:43Speaker 2: quarterbacks after one year being, you know, the next great
- 0:46Speaker 2: players and they could end up being great players, but
- 0:49Speaker 2: can we see more? You know what I mean, Prez?
- 0:51Speaker 2: Let's not put them in the Hall of Fame because
- 0:54Speaker 2: they had one good year. I need to see more.
- 0:57Speaker 2: It was a bad performance for Denver on the road
- 0:59Speaker 2: in the divisional game. I think, you know, betters looked
- 1:02Speaker 2: at there was no field goal kick at the end.
- 1:04Speaker 2: So the game stayed under. Chief betters really never had
- 1:07Speaker 2: to sweat. So, you know, there was a lot to
- 1:10Speaker 2: take away.
- 1:10Speaker 1: I think it was a statement by Kansas City. I'll
- 1:13Speaker 1: tell you something, man. Firstly, they made a statement saying, yeah,
- 1:16Speaker 1: not yet. We had an off year last year. We
- 1:19Speaker 1: own this division. And then they really put a pin
- 1:24Speaker 1: in Denver's run defense. My God, Walker was all over them.
- 1:28Speaker 1: 191 all-purpose yards. He ate them up on the ground.
- 1:34Speaker 1: Their defense looked like a mess. Their offense was out
- 1:37Speaker 1: of sync. With all that said, be careful, everybody. Week
- 1:43Speaker 1: two is overreaction week. Kansas City is not as good
- 1:46Speaker 1: as they looked last night. Denver surely is not as bad.
- 1:51Speaker 1: And Art, Mahomes did not look great last night.
- 1:54Speaker 2: He didn't. I would totally agree. Obviously, the run game
- 1:57Speaker 2: and the defense held it together for Kansas City. And listen,
- 2:00Speaker 2: they used that new bright, shiny toy that they got
- 2:02Speaker 2: in Walker and said, we're going to run you to death.
- 2:05Speaker 2: And if that's the way Andy Reid's going to play,
- 2:07Speaker 2: while Mahomes is still recovering, maybe Mahomes breaks out in
- 2:10Speaker 2: the second half of the year, but maybe early in
- 2:13Speaker 2: the year, it's a lot of run for Kansas City.
- 2:15Speaker 1: Yeah, and I think that's what it's going to be
- 2:18Speaker 1: all year, actually, Art. I don't think it's going to,
- 2:20Speaker 1: because we've seen a regression with Pat Mahomes over the
- 2:24Speaker 1: last year and a half, not just And, you know,
- 2:29Speaker 1: they really do lack wide receivers, although Rice looked good
- 2:32Speaker 1: last night.
- 2:33Speaker 2: He looked good.
- 2:34Speaker 1: I think this is going to be a running team,
- 2:36Speaker 1: and I think this is a team that we should
- 2:38Speaker 1: look to bet under the total. All right, let's get
- 2:42Speaker 1: into some sharp bets, then our parlay of the day,
- 2:44Speaker 1: and then we're going to go through every NFL game
- 2:47Speaker 1: on the board. Absolutely. What do we got sharp bets
- 2:50Speaker 1: for today?
- 2:50Speaker 2: Sharps were good yesterday in MLB after they had taken
- 2:53Speaker 2: it on the chin the last couple of days. They're
- 2:55Speaker 2: on two sides today. They're on the Red Sox and
- 2:57Speaker 2: they're on the Astros. And just a couple early college
- 3:00Speaker 2: football ones to throw at you, Prez, that we've seen
- 3:02Speaker 2: some movement on. We saw UAB take money at 8.5.
- 3:06Speaker 2: We saw NC State take money at 4. And we
- 3:09Speaker 2: saw them take Charlotte at 19.5. So, you know, throughout
- 3:12Speaker 2: the week, I'm always going to be throwing out three
- 3:14Speaker 2: or four games. So those are some of your early
- 3:16Speaker 2: games just to pique the college football interest.
- 3:19Speaker 1: And as we go through the NFL card art, if
- 3:22Speaker 1: you have any wise action for us, let us know. Okay,
- 3:26Speaker 1: parlay of the day, my brother, and I'm going to go, well,
- 3:29Speaker 1: why don't we start with, I'm going to go with Cleveland.
- 3:31Speaker 1: I don't want them to win. Toronto is falling apart.
- 3:35Speaker 1: I think Toronto's loss yesterday is going to really galvanize Cleveland.
- 3:38Speaker 1: They seriously know that this is theirs for the taking.
- 3:43Speaker 1: Griffin is on the mound. They're playing the White Sox,
- 3:45Speaker 1: which have been a very good team moving forward. Money
- 3:49Speaker 1: coming in on Cleveland, pouring in on Cleveland, Art.
- 3:53Speaker 2: That's where I'm going. Yeah, no shock. Must win for Cleveland. Obviously,
- 3:57Speaker 2: we know how big of a series this is and
- 3:58Speaker 2: they lost the opener. I'm going to go with your
- 4:00Speaker 2: Blue Jays, Prez. I think this is a must win
- 4:02Speaker 2: for them today. I think it's a short price. I
- 4:04Speaker 2: like a nice little Cleveland-Toronto two-teamer. I feel good about it. Yeah,
- 4:08Speaker 2: there you go.
- 4:09Speaker 1: So both teams are going to win today. Toronto with
- 4:12Speaker 1: a terrible loss last night.
- 4:13Speaker 2: Yeah, terrible.
- 4:15Speaker 1: You know, John Schneider is getting beat up in Toronto.
- 4:18Speaker 1: He just won't move Vladdy down. This is a crippling
- 4:23Speaker 1: contract for the Toronto Blue Jays. And one that was, well,
- 4:27Speaker 1: everyone saw it coming, but this is not a sports show.
- 4:29Speaker 1: This is a sports betting show. So let's move on.
- 4:33Speaker 1: That's our parlay of the day. A quick reminder to everybody,
- 4:37Speaker 1: it is customer appreciation day over at Wager Talk. $ 5
- 4:42Speaker 1: for our best play. I've got a total bet up.
- 4:47Speaker 1: It's $ 5. It's for this Sunday. And I love this play, Art.
- 4:53Speaker 1: I went 2-1 on my totals on this past Sunday.
- 4:56Speaker 1: The only total I lost was the under in the
- 4:58Speaker 1: Washington game, which was by far the right call. And
- 5:01Speaker 1: it just sort of got away from us at the
- 5:03Speaker 1: end there. That 40-yard touchdown by Philadelphia towards the end
- 5:08Speaker 1: of the game kind of mucked that one up. But
- 5:10Speaker 1: it was the right call. I'm seeing it great in totals.
- 5:13Speaker 1: 65% up, 110 units since December 1st.
- 5:19Speaker 2: All in totals.
- 5:20Speaker 1: I have a total up today. It is only five bucks.
- 5:24Speaker 1: Head over to wagertalk.com and grab it. What do you like, Art?
- 5:28Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, listen, I didn't get involved in the
- 5:30Speaker 2: Monday night game last night, but hey, baseball's still been rolling.
- 5:32Speaker 2: I had a baseball win last night. I needed a
- 5:34Speaker 2: walk-off home run from Corbin Carroll, but we got there.
- 5:38Speaker 2: That was a back-and-forth game, but same thing. I got
- 5:41Speaker 2: actually two things up for $ 5 Tuesday. I have a
- 5:43Speaker 2: baseball side for today, and I have a college football
- 5:45Speaker 2: side for Saturday.
- 5:47Speaker 1: Okay, there we go. Guys, normally Joe Ranieri is with us.
- 5:51Speaker 1: We have a jam-packed show on Tuesdays. We're going to
- 5:54Speaker 1: do an abbreviated show today. Art and I are going
- 5:57Speaker 1: to take about six, seven minutes and go through every
- 6:00Speaker 1: NFL game on the board really, really quickly. We will
- 6:03Speaker 1: be back tomorrow. Joe Ranieri and Ralph Michaels, make sure
- 6:07Speaker 1: to tune in. Let's start right off the bat with
- 6:10Speaker 1: Detroit and Buffalo. Art and Eileen on Buffalo here. I
- 6:13Speaker 1: think Detroit showed us something last week and that something
- 6:17Speaker 1: wasn't good. I think their offense was out of sync.
- 6:20Speaker 1: I felt like David Montgomery is going to be a
- 6:23Speaker 1: huge miss. And they lack weapons, even though they have
- 6:28Speaker 1: a great running back and two wide receivers. Something fell
- 6:31Speaker 1: off in Detroit, and their defense was a disaster. Conversely,
- 6:35Speaker 1: Buffalo ate up the best defense in the league, coming
- 6:38Speaker 1: home feeling good about themselves. I know four and a
- 6:41Speaker 1: half is a big number, but I think Buffalo gets
- 6:43Speaker 1: it done here.
- 6:44Speaker 2: Yeah, and I mean, it was 3.5-4, and it keeps
- 6:47Speaker 2: moving towards Buffalo. Obviously, the short week being on a Thursday.
- 6:50Speaker 2: A total that high and all those points that were scored,
- 6:54Speaker 2: you know the public's going to be on the over.
- 6:55Speaker 2: Sharps will look to bet the under if they can
- 6:57Speaker 2: get the right number.
- 6:58Speaker 1: Jets, that's my pick against Green Bay. Plus 3.5, I
- 7:02Speaker 1: think they can win this game.
- 7:04Speaker 2: Absolutely, and we all said it was a must-win for
- 7:06Speaker 2: the Jets week one. You can't lose to the Titans
- 7:08Speaker 2: if you're going to be taken seriously. Green Bay obviously
- 7:11Speaker 2: blows another lead. You're getting the Jets over a field goal.
- 7:14Speaker 2: I can't disagree.
- 7:16Speaker 1: Yeah, Chicago, 59 points last game. This team has already
- 7:19Speaker 1: announced they want to set the record for points scored.
- 7:22Speaker 1: I'm going to be looking to take the over all
- 7:24Speaker 1: the time. But I also think Chicago is the right
- 7:27Speaker 1: play here, Art. I know they're minus five and a half.
- 7:29Speaker 1: It's a division game. But I think Minnesota is getting
- 7:32Speaker 1: the benefit.
- 7:32Speaker 2: Of the doubt.
- 7:33Speaker 1: They were horrible. Yeah. on Sunday and just got really lucky.
- 7:38Speaker 1: They had right turnovers at the right time. And you
- 7:41Speaker 1: can never count on Carson Wentz two games in a row.
- 7:44Speaker 1: I like Chicago. Yeah.
- 7:46Speaker 2: And they've already bet the over in this game. That's
- 7:48Speaker 2: no surprise. And I think we're going to see that
- 7:50Speaker 2: a lot with these bear games. There's going to, there's
- 7:53Speaker 2: going to have to be adjustments made by bookmakers on
- 7:56Speaker 2: the bear totals.
- 7:57Speaker 1: There we go.
- 7:57Speaker 2: Okay.
- 7:58Speaker 1: New England, Pittsburgh. And again, I think we saw a
- 8:01Speaker 1: message from Pittsburgh and that message is we stink. New England, Pittsburgh,
- 8:05Speaker 1: New England is a better team than we saw against Seattle.
- 8:10Speaker 1: I do think they regressed, but I think new England
- 8:13Speaker 1: is the right play here. And I would look to
- 8:14Speaker 1: take under the total of 41 and a half.
- 8:17Speaker 2: I can't disagree with the total. And I think that's
- 8:19Speaker 2: a huge, you can't start. Oh, and two very hard
- 8:22Speaker 2: to come back from. Oh, and two, especially in that division,
- 8:24Speaker 2: especially in that division, especially in a tough AFC. If
- 8:27Speaker 2: you want to be a wildcard team must win for
- 8:30Speaker 2: new England. I would grab it now before it goes up.
- 8:32Speaker 1: Carolina against Atlanta here. Uh, I'm looking at the under,
- 8:37Speaker 1: I have no thoughts sidewise.
- 8:39Speaker 2: What do you like? Yeah. I mean, I guess I
- 8:42Speaker 2: would lean Carolina, but with so many games on the board,
- 8:44Speaker 2: I would pass on this.
- 8:45Speaker 1: Yeah. I Cleveland and Tampa Bay, you know, I love
- 8:49Speaker 1: Jacksonville last week. I love Tampa Bay here. I think
- 8:52Speaker 1: Cleveland is going to lose by more than 10 points
- 8:55Speaker 1: on average the whole year. With that said, Art, If
- 8:59Speaker 1: you look into Deshaun's numbers, they were not horrible, okay?
- 9:03Speaker 1: He went like 19 for 22 or 17 for 22.
- 9:07Speaker 1: He had 200-plus yards. He had a touchdown. He ran
- 9:10Speaker 1: for close to 40. There was movement in Cleveland. I
- 9:15Speaker 1: think the over is the right play, and I like
- 9:18Speaker 1: Tampa Bay, and I would not be surprised if this
- 9:20Speaker 1: has got 31 to 13 written all over it.
- 9:27Speaker 2: It's a low total.
- 9:28Speaker 1: I'll say this.
- 9:31Speaker 2: I'll say this. I think Tampa is on the short
- 9:34Speaker 2: list for us for Survivor this week. Yeah, well, I
- 9:38Speaker 2: would agree with that.
- 9:40Speaker 1: I think Cincinnati goes into Houston and beats them. But
- 9:43Speaker 1: I'm really high on Cincinnati. I told you guys that.
- 9:46Speaker 1: I actually thought they had a slight off game last week.
- 9:51Speaker 1: I think Cincinnati is better than they were last week.
- 9:54Speaker 1: And their defense had some uh, turnovers. So I don't think,
- 9:58Speaker 1: I don't think Houston is as good as everybody thinks.
- 10:01Speaker 1: I like, I like Maddie here. Plus two and a half.
- 10:03Speaker 1: There's threes out there.
- 10:05Speaker 2: I still believe in Houston. So I'm going to lean
- 10:08Speaker 2: Houston this week.
- 10:09Speaker 1: Art, what do you think about Baltimore? Minus eight and
- 10:11Speaker 1: a half against new Orleans. I was very impressed with
- 10:14Speaker 1: new Orleans is offense last week. And I love a,
- 10:16Speaker 1: my God, 10 touchdowns. receptions just unstoppable really and i
- 10:21Speaker 1: i think uh i think they might be able to
- 10:23Speaker 1: keep it close which really leads me to the over.
- 10:27Speaker 2: Yeah i don't disagree baltimore over the last couple years
- 10:30Speaker 2: has had trouble covering big numbers now this could be
- 10:33Speaker 2: a whole new regime and a whole new deal with
- 10:35Speaker 2: them but i don't know early in the season if
- 10:37Speaker 2: i want to lay eight and a half with.
- 10:38Speaker 1: Baltimore Yeah, and that makes sense, although they do have
- 10:41Speaker 1: a different coach now. And I think their coach, you know,
- 10:45Speaker 1: I don't think Harbaugh was one to run it up.
- 10:47Speaker 1: So it is a different regime. Philadelphia in Tennessee, 39
- 10:52Speaker 1: and a half. This is a Tennessee team total under.
- 10:56Speaker 2: I don't know what it.
- 10:56Speaker 1: Is going to be, but I take it under 13.
- 11:00Speaker 1: I don't think Tennessee puts up more than 13 in
- 11:03Speaker 1: this game. I can't take the under in the game
- 11:06Speaker 1: because I think Philly could name their score.
- 11:09Speaker 2: Well, this is one I know Brian Power talked about
- 11:11Speaker 2: it last week because he didn't do it, I believe.
- 11:13Speaker 2: Maybe this is the week we do Cam Ward to
- 11:16Speaker 2: throw an interception. He didn't do it against the Jets,
- 11:19Speaker 2: and that Philly D will swarm, so maybe we get
- 11:22Speaker 2: a nice price on that.
- 11:23Speaker 1: With that said, I was not impressed with Philly's D
- 11:25Speaker 1: against Washington last week. I mean, listen, I was impressed,
- 11:30Speaker 1: but we expected them to be better.
- 11:32Speaker 2: Divisional game, tough in division.
- 11:34Speaker 1: Yeah. Las Vegas against the Chargers. talk about overreaction or
- 11:40Speaker 1: not overreaction. Well, the books aren't overreacting. The charges absolutely
- 11:45Speaker 1: stunk in game one. Now they're minus seven against a
- 11:48Speaker 1: Vegas team that looked good. Genty over a hundred yards.
- 11:51Speaker 1: Kirk cousins had good numbers. Their defense was good. I'll
- 11:54Speaker 1: be it against Miami. This is way too big a
- 11:57Speaker 1: number of Vegas for me.
- 12:00Speaker 2: Yeah. If you can get seven, you know, you have
- 12:03Speaker 2: to take Vegas in a situational spot in the division.
- 12:06Speaker 2: You and I both know, or, Will it be the
- 12:09Speaker 2: betters who jump back on L.A. this week and say, hey,
- 12:12Speaker 2: I'll put them in money line parlays. I'll put them
- 12:14Speaker 2: in teasers. Maybe I didn't use them in a survivor, blah, blah, blah.
- 12:18Speaker 2: Like them being in this spot where they can't start
- 12:21Speaker 2: 0-2 is, you know, a touchdown favorite in both games.
- 12:24Speaker 2: Huge game for the Chargers.
- 12:26Speaker 1: Yeah, and there's some huge favorites all around here. Eight
- 12:29Speaker 1: and a half, seven. Then, of course, we have to
- 12:32Speaker 1: still speak about San Fran. We only have a couple
- 12:35Speaker 1: of minutes left, only because I got a hard stop today, guys.
- 12:38Speaker 1: Jacksonville at Denver. Minus two and a half at Denver,
- 12:42Speaker 1: and that's a hell no for me. Jacksonville is a beast, Art.
- 12:47Speaker 1: I understand they've been inconsistent the last many years, but
- 12:50Speaker 1: they weren't under Liam Cohn. They were the best team
- 12:53Speaker 1: in the league the last half of last year. They
- 12:56Speaker 1: looked great this coming year. I think Denver regresses. I
- 13:00Speaker 1: was unimpressed with both sides of the field. Jacksonville for me, bro.
- 13:05Speaker 2: They played that great game last year too. I love
- 13:08Speaker 2: Jacksonville in a teaser.
- 13:09Speaker 1: Yeah. That's a great call on the teaser. Washington, Dallas,
- 13:13Speaker 1: Dallas showed us nothing.
- 13:14Speaker 2: Horrible, horrible, horrible performance.
- 13:17Speaker 1: They were out of sync in every direction. This is
- 13:20Speaker 1: an over 50 and a half for me. I don't
- 13:23Speaker 1: think I could take the side here. I guess if
- 13:25Speaker 1: I had to, I would take Washington.
- 13:28Speaker 2: I don't disagree. I think the play is the over.
- 13:29Speaker 2: I think there will be points.
- 13:31Speaker 1: Yeah, now Arizona, how good did they look? Or was
- 13:34Speaker 1: that really just bad by the Chargers? Now they're playing Seattle.
- 13:39Speaker 1: We've got Drew Locke coming in. They're going to be
- 13:41Speaker 1: able to game plan for him. I think the under
- 13:44Speaker 1: is the call here. Art, 41 and a half. I
- 13:47Speaker 1: think Mike McDonald is going to play this game super
- 13:49Speaker 1: close to the vest.
- 13:51Speaker 2: I think with the early overreaction money coming in on
- 13:53Speaker 2: the Cardinals, I think you can get a cheap number
- 13:55Speaker 2: on Seattle.
- 13:56Speaker 1: Yeah. I don't disagree either. I think Arizona's going to
- 14:00Speaker 1: struggle to score in this football game. Yeah. Mm-hmm. Santran,
- 14:04Speaker 1: minus 13.5. I'll make it easy. Take them on an
- 14:06Speaker 1: alternate night at minus 20.5. They win this game by
- 14:08Speaker 1: over 21.
- 14:09Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't disagree.
- 14:12Speaker 1: Kansas City, minus 6.5 against Indianapolis. Overreaction on both levels.
- 14:16Speaker 1: I lean on Indy here.
- 14:18Speaker 2: No doubt. I'll say this. I think my favorite play
- 14:20Speaker 2: maybe of the week is the under in that game,
- 14:22Speaker 2: under 47.
- 14:22Speaker 1: Yeah. I like that as well, Art. And we saw
- 14:25Speaker 1: an outstanding performance by Kansas City's defense. And now you
- 14:29Speaker 1: got the Rams Monday night football against the Giants. And
- 14:33Speaker 1: shout out to the Giants, man. You can see it
- 14:37Speaker 1: on the field. There is a vibe.
- 14:39Speaker 2: There is a feeling.
- 14:41Speaker 1: They all love each other. Malik Neighbors was back. Isaiah
- 14:45Speaker 1: Light quickly looked incredible.
- 14:48Speaker 2: Incredible.
- 14:49Speaker 1: The offense was in sync. Scataboo looked amazing. With that said,
- 14:53Speaker 1: I don't want to play the Rams. I don't want
- 14:55Speaker 1: to play against them in this week. That's going to
- 14:57Speaker 1: be horrible.
- 14:58Speaker 2: It is, but this is the perfect time for the
- 15:00Speaker 2: Giants to be getting the Rams. Once again, there's so
- 15:03Speaker 2: many games. I would stay away from this game, but
- 15:06Speaker 2: the Rams are going to come out and you would
- 15:07Speaker 2: think give their best performance, but the Giants are riding
- 15:09Speaker 2: high now.
- 15:10Speaker 1: There we go. Art DeCesar, Lawrence Presman. That is the
- 15:15Speaker 1: abbreviated version of the best betting show ever. Thanks for watching, everybody.
