0:40
Speaker 1: Favorites with my bff, my companion, MIKEA Padre, professional beattar,
0:44
Speaker 1: Simon Hunter whill Chat chat Chat. I wanted a five
0:50
Speaker 1: a week, so bad, so bad. No, it's all, It's
0:55
Speaker 1: all me. I would I wouldn't love the blame Chad.
0:58
Speaker 1: The minute he took the Eagles and screwed for Lette.
1:01
Speaker 1: I said what I always said, Chad, if you're new
1:03
Speaker 1: to the show, chat is slightly cursed. And as soon
1:05
Speaker 1: as you said the Eagles, we know, we knew, when
1:07
Speaker 1: we knew that that was doomed. But I walked into
1:10
Speaker 1: the firepit whether and I took it anyway, And that's
1:12
Speaker 1: on me. So it is my faults. Uh. To remind
1:17
Speaker 1: people this is how the show works. Tuesday's Simon and
1:21
Speaker 1: I go through the entire NFL slate. We talked about
1:25
Speaker 1: our leans, what we're thinking about Thursday, we narrow it
1:28
Speaker 1: down and we try to come up with our five
1:32
Speaker 1: favorite picks that we will put on on Sunday. Along
1:36
Speaker 1: the way, you will get the Simon says, which means
1:40
Speaker 1: you've got to pick this game right away. Last week,
1:45
Speaker 1: Simon says, Cincinnati Bengals. Didn't matter that it was plus
1:48
Speaker 1: six and a half, didn't matter, it was plus six.
1:50
Speaker 1: We love the Bengals. Um, it worked out pretty well.
1:54
Speaker 1: You're also referring to our final five picks. We went
1:59
Speaker 1: three and two. We ended taking the Broncos plus three
2:01
Speaker 1: and a half on Thursday night. We love the Bengals
2:05
Speaker 1: at plus six and a half. We who else did
2:08
Speaker 1: we take? Already? Find? What was that? Titans? We love
2:12
Speaker 1: the Titans. So we started off three and now early
2:15
Speaker 1: games we were three and now we took the Eagles.
2:18
Speaker 1: We love the Eagles, and we never wavered off the Eagles. Okay,
2:22
Speaker 1: don't make this a chat thing. We did not waver up.
2:25
Speaker 1: I'm saying that's why I blamed myself. I should have
2:26
Speaker 1: known better. You should have known better. We also do
2:29
Speaker 1: Scooch Roulette in honor of Simon's predecessor, Bob Scucci, the
2:33
Speaker 1: great bookmaker from the Stardust and Boyd Gaming, who was
2:38
Speaker 1: the original co host of this show. Um. He and
2:42
Speaker 1: I used to go ahead to head every week. He
2:44
Speaker 1: would choose the game, I would choose a game. This
2:46
Speaker 1: past week, Simon chose the Packers. I chose the Eagles.
2:48
Speaker 1: He won. We got so much to unpack. We're going
2:51
Speaker 1: to go through the entire slate. Um. We ended up
2:53
Speaker 1: losing on the Eagles and the Niners. Um. That's one
2:56
Speaker 1: of the things I want to talk about, the Packers
2:58
Speaker 1: and the Niners. So, uh, we do the show on Tuesday,
3:04
Speaker 1: you talk about how much you love the Packers. You
3:05
Speaker 1: didn't care what the line was, you love the Packers.
3:09
Speaker 1: Every Thursday we do a segment called Sharp Calls, because
3:12
Speaker 1: between Tuesday and Thursday, you will get calls from your
3:14
Speaker 1: buddies who are professional betters, critiquing what we discussed. Sometimes
3:19
Speaker 1: they're with you, sometimes they are against you. This week
3:22
Speaker 1: they hated the Packers, they loved the Washington football team,
3:26
Speaker 1: but they also called you about the Niners, saying they
3:29
Speaker 1: like the Niners when we had said we liked the Colts.
3:32
Speaker 1: We stuck to our guns on the packers. We turned
3:35
Speaker 1: our back on our principles on the Colts and chose
3:40
Speaker 1: the Niners. Tell me what happened? Why did we stick
3:43
Speaker 1: with one and that's stick with the other. Do this
3:46
Speaker 1: while I sip my decaf English breakfast tea on a damp,
3:52
Speaker 1: cold day with a just a splash of vanilla soy creamery.
3:58
Speaker 1: Uh So, I try to be as humble as I
4:02
Speaker 1: can on this show, Chad. It's hard. It's hard to
4:04
Speaker 1: be the humble when you're this bad looking. Um, How
4:10
Speaker 1: can I say this? So? I say at the time,
4:12
Speaker 1: there are maybe fifty guys and all of America that
4:15
Speaker 1: do this for real, that bet on NFL with a
4:18
Speaker 1: betting syndicate or they bet with a firm. They're legit. Okay,
4:22
Speaker 1: I know Twitter makes you think there's hundreds of us
4:24
Speaker 1: grown out of trees. There isn't. I'm telling you there's
4:26
Speaker 1: a very small group of it. I can tell you
4:29
Speaker 1: I'm the only guy I knew that got hired at
4:31
Speaker 1: this position in my twenties. Okay, now I'm in my
4:33
Speaker 1: thirties so it doesn't sound as cool. But in my
4:35
Speaker 1: twenties it was a big deal. Okay, A lot of
4:37
Speaker 1: these guys will get the job I have until late thirties,
4:39
Speaker 1: early forties. So I know I'm young, and I know
4:44
Speaker 1: that a lot of the guys that listen to the
4:46
Speaker 1: show that are pros that work for these other groups.
4:48
Speaker 1: They're always gonna have opinions. So when a guy like
4:50
Speaker 1: Hank calls me up and he's giving me a ship
4:52
Speaker 1: about my Green Bay pick, that's not a big deal. Okay,
4:55
Speaker 1: Like that's pros are gonna be on different sides. We
4:57
Speaker 1: screw with each other at the time. That's why I
4:58
Speaker 1: wasn't so staunch and switching that green Baby pick like
5:01
Speaker 1: I like that pick. I felt good about it. The
5:03
Speaker 1: Colts one again, there might be fifty people out there
5:08
Speaker 1: to do what I do. One of these groups something
5:12
Speaker 1: I'm not close with at all. They apparently hit a
5:15
Speaker 1: book in Vegas, they hit a book in Colorado, and
5:17
Speaker 1: they hit a bunch of books in New Jersey, all
5:19
Speaker 1: in the forty niners. Okay, so this was obviously one
5:21
Speaker 1: of these group's biggest bets of the year. I might
5:25
Speaker 1: love my number, but one of the biggest things I
5:27
Speaker 1: learned in life is you got to be open to
5:29
Speaker 1: other people. You can't be a know it all, especially
5:31
Speaker 1: in this business. Okay, There's always gonna be people that
5:33
Speaker 1: know more than you. It doesn't matter how good your
5:35
Speaker 1: system is, how how much you're on fire. I need
5:37
Speaker 1: to if if another group this is their biggest bet
5:40
Speaker 1: of the year and I know they're legit, I'm gonna
5:43
Speaker 1: take that every time. Okay, And yeah, I feel like
5:46
Speaker 1: an idiot. Okay, I was spot on my love for
5:48
Speaker 1: the Colts. It was a good number. Everything I thought
5:50
Speaker 1: was right. I think Jimmy G's a fraud. He was
5:53
Speaker 1: a fraud in that game. But when a group like
5:55
Speaker 1: that is coming in so heavy and they're hitting out
5:57
Speaker 1: multiple books and multiple states, who the hell am I
6:00
Speaker 1: to say, No, these guys are wrong. They will never
6:03
Speaker 1: be the case. I'm always gonna go with that group
6:05
Speaker 1: if I know it's one of the biggest bets of
6:06
Speaker 1: the year. So I stepped in it. That was a
6:08
Speaker 1: really stupid play by me where I should trust my number.
6:11
Speaker 1: But it's just because I just know it is. These
6:14
Speaker 1: guys know more than me, So I have to be
6:16
Speaker 1: open to these things. Even though I think I'm really
6:18
Speaker 1: good and I know I'm really good at what I do.
6:20
Speaker 1: I always have to pay respect to these guys who've
6:22
Speaker 1: come before me. I've done this for a long time,
6:24
Speaker 1: so I hate that I did a chat, but I
6:26
Speaker 1: wouldn't change it. I would have to do it again
6:28
Speaker 1: because that's that's how I'm gonna make money long term,
6:30
Speaker 1: is listening to these other guys. You know how you
6:33
Speaker 1: stay great, Simon Wow, stay humble, keep grinding, Recognize there's
6:42
Speaker 1: always a potentially new, interesting, different, better way to do
6:47
Speaker 1: the job. What you're doing today isn't necessarily going to
6:51
Speaker 1: work tomorrow, by the way. That's how we do it
6:53
Speaker 1: every single day, every single day. But we thought work
6:56
Speaker 1: last week is probably not gonna work the week after.
6:58
Speaker 1: That's actually what the fun part is. You get to
7:00
Speaker 1: be invented every single time. Yeah, Like you're always updating,
7:03
Speaker 1: Like you'll never see going my way to talk bad
7:06
Speaker 1: about other sports betters. Like I'm never going on Twitter
7:08
Speaker 1: and seek out someone saying you're doing this wrong or whatever,
7:11
Speaker 1: because it's just a waste. I don't really know pros
7:13
Speaker 1: that do that. You always need to be updating, look
7:15
Speaker 1: at things different, Like I got nothing against Wong teasers.
7:18
Speaker 1: Long teasers clearly work that he wrote that book like
7:21
Speaker 1: ten years ago. How much is the NFL changed in
7:24
Speaker 1: ten years? So yeah, I I do want teasers. Other
7:27
Speaker 1: times I go against the rules just because how is
7:30
Speaker 1: anything the same it was ten years ago in the NFL.
7:32
Speaker 1: It's just not key numbers have changed dramatically. We've talked
7:35
Speaker 1: about it. Six has become one of the most key
7:37
Speaker 1: numbers in all football. It's lying in at a higher
7:40
Speaker 1: rate than seven is. That's a big deal. So always
7:43
Speaker 1: be updating. Um, that's my biggest thing to people. It's
7:46
Speaker 1: like I look at things differently, Like remember last year
7:49
Speaker 1: the super Bowl. We talked about at the time. I
7:51
Speaker 1: try to explain to people in in the super Bowl, Okay,
7:54
Speaker 1: billions of dollars are being bet, so a plus three
7:57
Speaker 1: in the super Bowl is much different than a plus
8:00
Speaker 1: three in Week six. And if you view them as
8:02
Speaker 1: the same thing, you're already way behind the gauge. Okay,
8:05
Speaker 1: there is nothing comparable about a plus three in the
8:08
Speaker 1: super Bowl and a plus three in Week six. Even
8:10
Speaker 1: if the math works out to you that it is,
8:12
Speaker 1: they're very different. They should be treated differently. Again, billions
8:15
Speaker 1: of dollars of me and bet on the super Bowl,
8:17
Speaker 1: maybe a couple of million if they're lucky, Like, who's
8:20
Speaker 1: bet on the Giants Carolina Panthers plus three game? Nobody?
8:23
Speaker 1: That's a different thing in the Super Bowl plus three.
8:25
Speaker 1: So that's my whole thing is I just want people
8:27
Speaker 1: to think different, and that's what I feel like. People
8:30
Speaker 1: like the show we're trying to get people look at
8:32
Speaker 1: football differently. You're the Steve Jobs Sports betting think different. Listen,
8:39
Speaker 1: speaking of plus six, let's get to the games, right.
8:42
Speaker 1: We got a full slate Thursday night football. Green Bay
8:46
Speaker 1: Packers at Arizona Cardinals game open to three. Davante Adams,
8:52
Speaker 1: now unlikely to play star receiver for the Packers on
8:55
Speaker 1: the COVID nineteen reserve list. Obviously he's He's Aaron rodgers
9:01
Speaker 1: biggest weapon. The Cardinals have continued to defy what we
9:05
Speaker 1: thought they were. The Packers have played better the past
9:07
Speaker 1: two weeks against admittedly two really bad teams. What do
9:12
Speaker 1: we make of this? I look at this at minus six.
9:14
Speaker 1: I see how well the Cardinals are playing. I see
9:17
Speaker 1: the way Kyler Murray is making plays. I see the
9:19
Speaker 1: way Aaron Rodgers is when he's under pressure, and know
9:22
Speaker 1: that he's without his best receiver, I still like it.
9:26
Speaker 1: At minus six. I know this is this is such
9:29
Speaker 1: a hard game, because you know it is. I love
9:31
Speaker 1: taking dogs. You're getting Aaron Rodgers is a big dog
9:34
Speaker 1: here against you know, Arizona. Yeah, everything you just said
9:38
Speaker 1: just true. It's it's crazy how well they're playing. And again,
9:45
Speaker 1: the Adams movement, to me, it was a big deal.
9:48
Speaker 1: I have him and Chases my highest two greader wide
9:50
Speaker 1: receivers this season. For me to move at a point
9:53
Speaker 1: and a half for a wide receiver is incredibly rare.
9:57
Speaker 1: That's that's how much Adams means this team. So I did.
10:00
Speaker 1: I liked that three. I thought that was a good number.
10:02
Speaker 1: I moved to four and a half. Now that's at six.
10:04
Speaker 1: That means to me, I'm gonna put a half value
10:06
Speaker 1: on green Bay. Yeah, I leaned towards green Bay. But
10:10
Speaker 1: I don't feel like you're getting that much crazy value
10:12
Speaker 1: here because everything you just said so true. I don't
10:14
Speaker 1: know how Ray and Rodgers is gonna do on third down.
10:15
Speaker 1: He doesn't have a safety blanket Adams. It's there's a
10:18
Speaker 1: lot of unknown there where Arizona. It kind of feels
10:21
Speaker 1: like we know what they are. They're a legit team.
10:23
Speaker 1: And Kyler Murray is just the ultimate difference maker. This
10:26
Speaker 1: guy is so slippery, so smart. It doesn't matter their
10:30
Speaker 1: coach might be an idiot. It's it's all working for
10:32
Speaker 1: Arizona right now. I mean they literally have not lost
10:35
Speaker 1: this season, So, um, we can be on opposite side chairs.
10:38
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna force you take Green Bay, but to me,
10:40
Speaker 1: that's where the value is in this line. It's plus
10:42
Speaker 1: six with them. This is not like Look the last
10:45
Speaker 1: couple of weeks, we've taken teams on Thursday nights as
10:48
Speaker 1: part of our best five, and um, I don't see
10:52
Speaker 1: this being one of them. The thing that I worry
10:55
Speaker 1: about what the Packers is they're starting to get more
10:59
Speaker 1: and more love from the market because of what they
11:02
Speaker 1: did at the Bears and because of what they did
11:05
Speaker 1: to the Washington football team, and before that, they had
11:08
Speaker 1: barely beaten the Bengals, and before that they had looked
11:12
Speaker 1: like a team that was struggling mightily in the first
11:15
Speaker 1: three games of the year, including losing in the first game.
11:17
Speaker 1: So uh, Aaron Rodgers is getting pressured like crazy. I
11:20
Speaker 1: watched a lot of this game this past week. He
11:23
Speaker 1: was constantly getting pushed out of the pocket and not
11:26
Speaker 1: looking good doing it. I I was nervous about that
11:29
Speaker 1: cover most of the game. Um so yeah, I'm comfortable
11:35
Speaker 1: with the Cardinals at minus six. And like people talked
11:38
Speaker 1: about how lucky green Bay got, we talked about they
11:42
Speaker 1: were the worst red zone team. They had given up
11:44
Speaker 1: the most touchdowns on football. They're not that bad. It
11:46
Speaker 1: was gonna come down to a medium and that's what
11:48
Speaker 1: happened in that game. Like this, the the Washington football
11:52
Speaker 1: team coudn't score the red zone. That's why green Bay cover.
11:54
Speaker 1: That's pretty simple. But yeah, that's that's a fair statement.
11:57
Speaker 1: They're they're probably a little overvalued right now, just because
11:59
Speaker 1: what they've done last two weeks. A good tea. I
12:04
Speaker 1: did my own little version of of a TikTok meme.
12:07
Speaker 1: There are you on the TikTok? I'm not. I'm a
12:11
Speaker 1: guy in my mid thirties that you know, doesn't doesn't
12:14
Speaker 1: care to check out what teenagers are doing chat mhm,
12:18
Speaker 1: what's funny you think of it that way? I, as
12:19
Speaker 1: a media professional, think about it as the new frontier.
12:22
Speaker 1: Here's an interesting game, Pittsburgh Steelers at Cleveland Browns. If
12:28
Speaker 1: you go to Action Network right now, there's a story
12:30
Speaker 1: the week eight games we bet right away. There were
12:34
Speaker 1: two games listed. We're gonna get to both of them.
12:36
Speaker 1: The first one the Steelers as underdogs. They were actually
12:40
Speaker 1: listed as three and a half point underdogs. Uh that
12:43
Speaker 1: there was concerned people wanted to bet them right away
12:45
Speaker 1: because they were afraid wise guys would come in and
12:47
Speaker 1: take the Steelers and you lose the hook. Steelers a
12:50
Speaker 1: plus three and a half plus four some places getting
12:54
Speaker 1: almost all the bets right now. There's reason to believe
12:58
Speaker 1: the Steelers in the right side here. Yeah, but it's again,
13:03
Speaker 1: it's it's a game where if Baker is playing actually
13:05
Speaker 1: really like the Steelers because he's rushing back, that's not good.
13:09
Speaker 1: That's not good for them. So if this is Baker,
13:12
Speaker 1: I got no issues taking the Steelers here. It's case Keenum.
13:14
Speaker 1: I'm not as much in love with it he had.
13:16
Speaker 1: He's had more time now. They played last week on Thursday,
13:20
Speaker 1: so he's more time to kind of get used to
13:21
Speaker 1: being the number one. I like that. For Cleveland. It
13:24
Speaker 1: feels like the whole public's gonna coming really heavy on
13:27
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh just because Cleveland looked that great last Weekend's Denver,
13:31
Speaker 1: But to me, this is Uh, this is one of
13:33
Speaker 1: these all wait and see. If it's Baker, I got
13:36
Speaker 1: no issue taking Pittsburgh, but if it's not, I would
13:38
Speaker 1: stay away. Are you telling me right now that you
13:41
Speaker 1: have the Browns power rated better with Case Keenum than
13:46
Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield and injured and injured Baker Mayfield? So last
13:51
Speaker 1: week I had it at three and a half when
13:52
Speaker 1: Baker was the starter, they moved the two and a half.
13:55
Speaker 1: I moved it just by a point to case Keenum
13:57
Speaker 1: just because Baker has not been playing well, but frantas
14:00
Speaker 1: to Baker, he's been hurt. So I do think Baker
14:02
Speaker 1: is valued more, but for this, now that he's had
14:05
Speaker 1: time underneath his belt to get reps. Yeah, I think
14:08
Speaker 1: they're pretty much the same exact quarterback right now because
14:10
Speaker 1: Baker is hurt and it's like he's hurting his team.
14:13
Speaker 1: He's literally a hit away at any point to be
14:15
Speaker 1: out of the game, like he's he barely got hit
14:18
Speaker 1: that hard. He just landed on his shoulder last game
14:20
Speaker 1: he was out, So it's two nerve wracking really back Baker,
14:24
Speaker 1: do you see anything in the Steelers having some time
14:27
Speaker 1: off that makes you think this team is getting better? Uh?
14:31
Speaker 1: They're running the ball a little bit better. Uh, there
14:34
Speaker 1: is value on them in an underdog spot A ra
14:38
Speaker 1: ra Mike Tomlin spot, what ra ra Mike Tomlin spot?
14:44
Speaker 1: We win the game with this cool bodies right here
14:47
Speaker 1: to day, the game to day. I mean, I like
14:52
Speaker 1: him with the points if it's Baker again, because I
14:54
Speaker 1: just think it's a good matchup for them defensively, like
14:56
Speaker 1: they're gonna be able to get after him. That's that's
14:58
Speaker 1: that's all the key right there, Like you can get
15:01
Speaker 1: walk and pressure. Pittsburgh seems like they can win. But
15:04
Speaker 1: Roethlisberger is so bad. I mean, it was a running
15:06
Speaker 1: joke with us last week. You were like, I like
15:08
Speaker 1: big Ben playing against a backup. I kept saying you,
15:10
Speaker 1: big Ben is a backup. This guy is not a
15:12
Speaker 1: starter in this league. So I don't really feel confident
15:15
Speaker 1: back to them. But if I am back to them,
15:16
Speaker 1: it's just because of that defense. There was a moment
15:19
Speaker 1: of clarity. I remember that comment. It's really good, all right,
15:22
Speaker 1: So this is not one that we're going to give
15:24
Speaker 1: heavy consideration to. Last week, you told me that there
15:28
Speaker 1: were two ugly, ugly dogs that we had to play,
15:31
Speaker 1: and I refused to commit the Miami Dolphins at plus
15:35
Speaker 1: two and a half and the New Year Football Giants
15:37
Speaker 1: a plus three lo and behold, you were right about both. Actually,
15:41
Speaker 1: I liked the Dolphins in the beginning to and for
15:43
Speaker 1: some reason we walked away from them, and I can't
15:45
Speaker 1: remember why. But the Dolphins are now on the road
15:48
Speaker 1: at Matt Mitchell's Buffalo Bills. Miami Dolphins at Buffalo Bills.
15:55
Speaker 1: The Bills so yo hey, and something south he making
16:04
Speaker 1: it happen. Now the Bills are fourteen point favorites on
16:09
Speaker 1: the road. I kind of feel like this is the past.
16:11
Speaker 1: I know you're gonna bet every game and you're gonna
16:13
Speaker 1: have an opinion on every game, but this doesn't feel
16:16
Speaker 1: like I'm seeing a huge opportunity. Like again, I'd like
16:18
Speaker 1: it better for it was that thirteen year thirteen and
16:20
Speaker 1: a half of Buffalo coming off of by coming off
16:22
Speaker 1: a loss. This is just a great spot for the
16:25
Speaker 1: Bills just to dominate a team that's not that good.
16:27
Speaker 1: But it's a little nerve wracking. Where I thought to
16:30
Speaker 1: have played exactly how I expected to to play last week.
16:32
Speaker 1: He played well at three yards passing four touchdowns against
16:35
Speaker 1: the bad Atlanta defense. The Bills ain't that bad. And
16:40
Speaker 1: at home, you know the weather inch isn't gonna be
16:42
Speaker 1: great up there and in uh, Northern New York in
16:45
Speaker 1: November or late late October. So yeah, that's fair. We
16:49
Speaker 1: can pass on it. I do lean towards the Bills.
16:51
Speaker 1: This is when the truck here plays out like this week.
16:54
Speaker 1: You like the Bills. What do you haven't rated at thirteen?
16:59
Speaker 1: So Inkle, you are getting value right now with Miami.
17:02
Speaker 1: But I'm hoping pros will just come in and bet
17:04
Speaker 1: this summer down so I can get maybe thirteen and
17:05
Speaker 1: a half thirteen, uh with the Bills. What do you
17:10
Speaker 1: like about two? I keep watching him and know you're
17:12
Speaker 1: saying this. I feel like he's getting junkyards and junk touchdowns.
17:16
Speaker 1: I don't look at him and think there's a guy
17:18
Speaker 1: I want to build my team around. He's got no
17:21
Speaker 1: wire receivers and his old lines terrible. That's what I
17:25
Speaker 1: don't want to get on chat too hard here, but
17:27
Speaker 1: I'm sick. I can't take everyone in the league after
17:30
Speaker 1: eight games or nine games of a guy being like, yeah, bust,
17:33
Speaker 1: Like that guy's washed up, by the way, who I
17:35
Speaker 1: would say he was a bust? Yeah, I'm just saying.
17:38
Speaker 1: It's really like people all of a sudden are being like, uh,
17:43
Speaker 1: Mac Jones, Yeah he's legit. You see him beat the
17:45
Speaker 1: Jets twice? Wow? Mac Jones, Yeah, he's incredible. He he
17:49
Speaker 1: played hard against the Cowboys and the Buccaneers. It's just
17:52
Speaker 1: too much like we're too high, too low on these
17:54
Speaker 1: kids when they come in so quick, like you need
17:57
Speaker 1: you need, Like Josh Owen, Josh own at two three years,
17:59
Speaker 1: I figure out what the hell was? We know he's legit.
18:01
Speaker 1: Daniel Jones he sucked now for two three years. We
18:04
Speaker 1: know what he is. He's terrible. So I feel like
18:06
Speaker 1: I need more time with these quarterbacks. But you're fair
18:09
Speaker 1: to say too has not been good. He hasn't been,
18:11
Speaker 1: but you also have to look at the pieces around him.
18:13
Speaker 1: He has no real help. He's got a terrible old
18:14
Speaker 1: line and terrible wide receivers. You know who turns out
18:18
Speaker 1: was amazing the backup quarterback for the Buffalo Bills, Mitchell Troubinsky.
18:25
Speaker 1: I don't know. We can talk about the Bears and
18:27
Speaker 1: if you want. People are hating on them too hard.
18:29
Speaker 1: Haven't they beaten the rate Las Vegas Raiders and the Bengals.
18:32
Speaker 1: Two teams are leading their divisions. I get a lot
18:36
Speaker 1: of hate. We're not talking about the Bears yet, we
18:38
Speaker 1: haven't got into the game. I know. I'm just saying
18:40
Speaker 1: the Bears are getting crushed, and I feel like people
18:41
Speaker 1: are underestimating how the Bears are good and bad. You
18:45
Speaker 1: can't underestimate them both ways. They're either good. They're They're
18:49
Speaker 1: either bad and we overestimated what they were, or they're
18:55
Speaker 1: good and we're not giving them enough credit. I happen
18:58
Speaker 1: to be on the side of I'm saying week the week,
19:00
Speaker 1: people won't be like they're terrible the next week when
19:03
Speaker 1: they beat a team like the Las Vegas Raiders, like
19:05
Speaker 1: they're really good. I'm saying it's too much. But that
19:08
Speaker 1: was a smash spot for the Bears. That was a
19:11
Speaker 1: smashed spot for the Bears against the Raiders. Everyone in
19:15
Speaker 1: the world knew they were going to win that game. Everybody.
19:21
Speaker 1: Carolina Panthers at Atlanta Falcons, This all of a sudden
19:25
Speaker 1: became a very interesting game. The Falcons are three point favorites.
19:30
Speaker 1: They've won a couple of games. Now they've got I
19:32
Speaker 1: think there're three and three on the year. Last second
19:35
Speaker 1: win against Miami bad loss against Washington before that, they
19:39
Speaker 1: beat the Jets before that. The Panthers are reeling. Man,
19:43
Speaker 1: Sam Donald is just terrible and got benched, and we
19:47
Speaker 1: love this team in the beginning of the year. This
19:50
Speaker 1: is gonna be a pros Joe's game. Right now. The
19:53
Speaker 1: money's coming in on the Panthers and the bets are
19:56
Speaker 1: coming in on the Falcons. Yeah, you got no faith,
20:00
Speaker 1: Like this is one of the few games I might
20:01
Speaker 1: end up passing her. I'll just bet the Panthers because
20:04
Speaker 1: I have to, because it's a good number. But he
20:07
Speaker 1: looks lost, Sam Donald, Like he literally looks lost. He's
20:10
Speaker 1: just throwing picks in a double coverage. It's just bad
20:13
Speaker 1: and the same reason we like Miami last week, we
20:16
Speaker 1: like to fade Matt Ryan. As soon as people started
20:18
Speaker 1: believing in Matt Ryan, that's when we fade him, and
20:20
Speaker 1: it worked out for us last week. I guess I'll
20:22
Speaker 1: do it again this week. But now it's like this
20:25
Speaker 1: probably wouldn'ta make my top ten bets. I I just
20:28
Speaker 1: I hate it. It's ugly, ugly, ugly game where we
20:31
Speaker 1: don't know what quarterback we're getting Sam Donald's, So how
20:33
Speaker 1: can I really bet this and know what I'm getting.
20:36
Speaker 1: And the scary thing is you bet on the Falcons
20:38
Speaker 1: and it's very possible that Sam Donald's backup comes in right,
20:42
Speaker 1: and who actually, you know, could be better than Sam Donald.
20:46
Speaker 1: I'm reading Man Mitchell's thing. I can't multitask what did
20:49
Speaker 1: Matt Mitchell say? He's it's actually a good a really
20:52
Speaker 1: good point. A team favored by the touchdowner more this
20:55
Speaker 1: season is undefeated. They have not lost, which is the
20:58
Speaker 1: longest streak since I leave, like two thousand and five,
21:01
Speaker 1: two thousand six, So basically this year, if you're just
21:05
Speaker 1: some Joe Schmo and you've just been betting favorites money
21:07
Speaker 1: lines and money line parlays, you're killing it. I mean,
21:10
Speaker 1: this is the longest active streaks since two thousand and
21:12
Speaker 1: five that a favorite seven or more points hasn't lost
21:15
Speaker 1: straight up. So something to keep your eyeing. People out
21:18
Speaker 1: there were way overdue for one of these big dogs
21:20
Speaker 1: that went out right. Also, Matt Mitchell in our Slack
21:23
Speaker 1: message to us both reminded us that everyone is left
21:26
Speaker 1: in survivor pools, including us, because we took the Patriots
21:30
Speaker 1: this past week and we will pick our new survivor
21:33
Speaker 1: pool entrant on Thursday and we got lucky. Though a
21:37
Speaker 1: couple of idiots took Carolina in ours. So a couple
21:40
Speaker 1: of people try to be too smart and they got burned.
21:43
Speaker 1: How many people are left in the survivor pool that
21:45
Speaker 1: you and I are in? I want to say four k? Wow?
21:48
Speaker 1: That many? Yeah? I mean we started with eight k though,
21:53
Speaker 1: So even though it's been really chalky, half been knocked out.
21:57
Speaker 1: And that's again people forget and they forget to put
21:59
Speaker 1: their picks. You know. Oh boy, this, I don't know
22:04
Speaker 1: how we do it. Cincinnati Bengals at New York Jets.
22:09
Speaker 1: Here's something really interesting. The look aheadline on this. I
22:14
Speaker 1: don't know when this number is from. I don't know
22:15
Speaker 1: if it's from preseason or whatever. Last week, Jets as
22:19
Speaker 1: one point favorites at home and they are now ten
22:22
Speaker 1: point underdogs. It's a perfect line because this was a
22:25
Speaker 1: trap spot, and if Zach Wilson was playing in this game,
22:29
Speaker 1: we would be all in on the Jets to win outright,
22:32
Speaker 1: to cover everything. I got no idea what to do
22:35
Speaker 1: with this number. I got no idea what to do
22:37
Speaker 1: with this quarterback, some white guy. I think his last
22:39
Speaker 1: name is white. So I love saying that joke. Uh,
22:42
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know what to do there.
22:44
Speaker 1: The Jets are They're terrible, the same reason we like
22:48
Speaker 1: to them against Tennessee. It was just a complete spot
22:51
Speaker 1: and they that's the only game they've covered in one
22:54
Speaker 1: this year was that Jetskins Tennessee at home. So man
22:57
Speaker 1: that I love this as a trap spot for this
22:59
Speaker 1: banging team, but it's hard to do it now. Like
23:02
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be on the nine and a half, whatever
23:04
Speaker 1: the number is, I'm gonna betting it because it's the
23:07
Speaker 1: Bengals are really good. But are there the top three,
23:11
Speaker 1: top four team in all the NFL? Probably not, so
23:14
Speaker 1: them blowing out the Jets was unlikely. But now the Jets,
23:17
Speaker 1: I don't know if they're gonna be able to score.
23:18
Speaker 1: So it's gonna be pretty easy for the Bengals to
23:20
Speaker 1: beat them by a lot of points. So I don't know.
23:24
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna make it. Do it, Chad, but I'll
23:26
Speaker 1: be betting the Jets. Unfortunately with a backup quarterback I
23:28
Speaker 1: know nothing about it. Does it does present an interesting dilemma.
23:37
Speaker 1: Right blindly you bet this number, you just do it,
23:41
Speaker 1: Like Bangos are coming off the bet of the franchise
23:44
Speaker 1: in the last what four or five years, that's the
23:46
Speaker 1: biggest when the franchise the last four or five years. Yeah,
23:51
Speaker 1: you almost have to bet the Jets here so gross.
23:55
Speaker 1: I wish we make it one of where like Foxhold
23:57
Speaker 1: bets or something. It's just something gross. I don't know
23:58
Speaker 1: if we would call it. This is like, to me,
24:01
Speaker 1: this is the grossest bet we've made this year. We've
24:03
Speaker 1: had gross bets, but this, this is the grossest. It's
24:08
Speaker 1: honestly irresponsible to ask people to commit to this. I
24:13
Speaker 1: think you and I can think about it for Thursday,
24:16
Speaker 1: and on Thursday, if we still think it's a Simon
24:19
Speaker 1: says or a big balls or a hornet's nest, we
24:21
Speaker 1: can layer it in there. But I'm hoping that over
24:24
Speaker 1: the next seven eight games we find something that feels
24:28
Speaker 1: a little bit more actionable for our listeners than bet
24:33
Speaker 1: the fucking Jets. Now we have great lines as we
24:35
Speaker 1: don't worry. We're not gonna force this one in because
24:38
Speaker 1: right now we haven't found any game that we'd like.
24:40
Speaker 1: We haven't every game we talked about. We want to pass.
24:43
Speaker 1: That's true, that's true. We're getting there, though, don't worry.
24:45
Speaker 1: I got a couple and now a word from our
24:51

26:46
Speaker 1: to the show. Tennessee Titans at Indianapolis Colts. Titans are
26:52
Speaker 1: one or a half point favorites on the road at
26:55
Speaker 1: Indie Simon says. Simon says, policy this podcast, pull your
27:13
Speaker 1: car over. Bet on the Colts they will be and
27:16
Speaker 1: all of my bets. Like again, I I joke all
27:18
Speaker 1: the time my bets of the year, this might not
27:20
Speaker 1: be one of those big bets. As soon as I
27:22
Speaker 1: saw this line, I loved it. It's the perfect spot.
27:25
Speaker 1: I love it so much. The Colts always beat Tennessee,
27:29
Speaker 1: and they always beat them, especially at home, even when
27:31
Speaker 1: even when Peyton left, even with Andrew luck and whatever
27:34
Speaker 1: first set the next year, they always beat Tennessee at home.
27:37
Speaker 1: Matchup wise, this is the dream. This is literally the dream.
27:41
Speaker 1: The Colts run game is one of the best in football.
27:44
Speaker 1: Tennessee has one of the worst run defenses. Their secondary
27:46
Speaker 1: is still incredibly banged up. Everything that happened last week
27:50
Speaker 1: with Kansas City, it wasn't about the Tennessee Titans, it
27:53
Speaker 1: was about the Kansas City Chiefs. That was a Kansas
27:55
Speaker 1: City Chiefs and meltdown. Uh that I watched that whole
27:58
Speaker 1: game because I had a lot of ride on that
28:00
Speaker 1: money line parlay we did with them in the Bengals,
28:02
Speaker 1: and I needed I needed one of them to win
28:04
Speaker 1: out right. Um and luckily they both came through, but
28:07
Speaker 1: it's this is such a typical line when they hung this.
28:11
Speaker 1: As soon as I saw this, I knew what they
28:13
Speaker 1: were doing there. Like I love the books because they
28:16
Speaker 1: lay these traps and they've been getting smacked around these
28:19
Speaker 1: sports books last four to five weeks. We're gonna talk
28:22
Speaker 1: about there's a bunch of games that are get right
28:24
Speaker 1: games for the sports books. Put this to the top
28:26
Speaker 1: of the list. This is my favorite get right games
28:28
Speaker 1: for the sports books. So you're gonna plus dog at
28:31
Speaker 1: Home in the Colts, which, again, this is one of
28:35
Speaker 1: these games where, like we told you last week, you
28:37
Speaker 1: bet the Bengals to win the division like we like
28:40
Speaker 1: we did, this is not one of those You're gonna
28:42
Speaker 1: bet the Colts with us this week. You have to
28:44
Speaker 1: bet the Colts win the division because this is one
28:45
Speaker 1: of these games I could flip the division. So I
28:48
Speaker 1: love the Colts at this number. Yeah. But by the way,
28:51
Speaker 1: that's the mistake I made last week, is I remember
28:53
Speaker 1: you saying that very clearly, and I bet the Bengals
28:57
Speaker 1: right away, and I forgot to bet them to win
29:00
Speaker 1: the division. You didn't get a tend to one, so
29:02
Speaker 1: I didn't get it oh God. And like as the
29:07
Speaker 1: game was kicking off, I'm like, oh ship, and I
29:10
Speaker 1: go to log in and I couldn't bet it. Yeah
29:12
Speaker 1: they took it down. Yeah it's down a three to one,
29:15
Speaker 1: two to one in certain books. Yeah, I know that
29:18
Speaker 1: that's a miss buddy. Damn it. Well, I'll tell you
29:21
Speaker 1: right now. You know what I did just do while
29:23
Speaker 1: you were prattling away. I did go on to the
29:26
Speaker 1: fandue lapse s where to God? And um, I bet
29:30
Speaker 1: on the Colts plus one and a half, my man,
29:33
Speaker 1: and you gotta sprinkle a little bit on the division,
29:35
Speaker 1: little bit, little sprinkle of a taste, a little bit
29:38
Speaker 1: of salt, a little bit of sesame seeds. You know,
29:41
Speaker 1: you can do your little loan uh, your little um
29:44
Speaker 1: you know everything bagel seasoning on this on this game.
29:47
Speaker 1: I love it. So I'm guaranteeing people always go you guys,
29:50
Speaker 1: switch your picks. I don't care if the greatest prone
29:52
Speaker 1: the world calls me up like whoever and they say, no,
29:56
Speaker 1: you have to take Tennessee not doing it. Love love,
29:58
Speaker 1: love the cults. This week. The next thing, I know
30:02
Speaker 1: you're gonna tell me you want to bet the Bears
30:04
Speaker 1: plus three and a half at home against the Niners,
30:08
Speaker 1: and I would do it. You know, why, do you know? Why?
30:12
Speaker 1: Tell me Matt NIGGI has COVID. That's terrible San Francisco.
30:17
Speaker 1: Forty Niners at Chicago Bears, no Bears at home? Baby,
30:22
Speaker 1: We love the Bears at home. Maybe you guys will
30:24
Speaker 1: reach out to me and say that we're walking to
30:26
Speaker 1: a sharp trap here, but I don't care. I love
30:28
Speaker 1: this number. I bet it when I opened at three
30:30
Speaker 1: and a half. Four, I'll bet it again as long
30:32
Speaker 1: as it stays above three. It's just a good, smart number.
30:36
Speaker 1: The Bears here aren't as bad as they looked against Tampa.
30:38
Speaker 1: That was just the worst possible matchup they could have.
30:43
Speaker 1: And um, I mean what we said is so right.
30:45
Speaker 1: Like we we were off the fort and Company of
30:47
Speaker 1: the year. We bet they're under a season win totals.
30:49
Speaker 1: We just didn't trust this Fort Anders team and we've
30:52
Speaker 1: seen it. Like Jimmy g there's a reason they drafted
30:54
Speaker 1: a QB third the third pick overall. He just ain't it.
30:58
Speaker 1: So if it's Jimmy is a start. I got no
31:01
Speaker 1: issue taking the Bears here plus three and a half.
31:05
Speaker 1: All right? Well, um, I thought the Bears looked pretty heartless,
31:13
Speaker 1: um and confused, and their defense is social distancing as
31:19
Speaker 1: if it's April of and they can't seem to defend
31:25
Speaker 1: anyone beyond five yards, and they were throwing punches and
31:29
Speaker 1: really looks completely out of sorts. I don't even know
31:32
Speaker 1: if Allen Robinson is still on the team, Like, honestly,
31:35
Speaker 1: that's how ineffective he's been as a fan. It's so
31:39
Speaker 1: disheartening to see. Now it's really bad. I'm not gonna
31:44
Speaker 1: deny that it is really bad, but you have to
31:46
Speaker 1: take this number. This is such a good bounce back
31:48
Speaker 1: spot for this team. Okay, as here, I'm sure where
31:54
Speaker 1: the Bears are, go the dogs, but don't coulm them up.
31:56
Speaker 1: You know, it's absurd really that we would even have
31:59
Speaker 1: to waste time comparing ourselves with that crime written red hole.
32:04
Speaker 1: But give me what it's rated at for you three.
32:07
Speaker 1: That's why if it got the two and a half, Like,
32:09
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna be taking Bears moneyline, I'm not gonna
32:11
Speaker 1: be taking the two and a half just because everything
32:13
Speaker 1: you just said, this team they straight up gave up
32:17
Speaker 1: last week. It was bad. I can't fall through there.
32:19
Speaker 1: But just as a professional, I have to bet a
32:21
Speaker 1: home dog in this position playing a four ninary scene
32:24
Speaker 1: that's still getting so much public love even though they
32:26
Speaker 1: have not done anything to earn it. This year. I mean,
32:29
Speaker 1: I saw some stances like Shanahan's career winning winning percentages
32:32
Speaker 1: fourty three, like the Yeah, so I might think he's
32:38
Speaker 1: a genius and he's some great offensive coordinator, he's never
32:42
Speaker 1: done it. And I got people's excuse for him. He's
32:44
Speaker 1: never had a quarterback like he got Jimmy g to
32:46
Speaker 1: the super Bowl. That's all that is fair. I get
32:49
Speaker 1: that argument. But at some point you have to start
32:51
Speaker 1: putting this on to Kyle Shanahan. And at this point
32:53
Speaker 1: I gotta do that. So I gotta know, is you're
32:55
Speaker 1: taking this number, you are hating on Kyle Shanahan, who's
32:58
Speaker 1: like the like the analytics geeks. God, both of us
33:05
Speaker 1: would give up. I mean, I you checked wouldn't give
33:07
Speaker 1: up a child. I'd give up a lot of things
33:09
Speaker 1: that are important to me to have him as my
33:10
Speaker 1: head coach. So I'm kind of talking on both sides
33:12
Speaker 1: of my mouth hating on the guy. But to me,
33:15
Speaker 1: he's a million times better than Nick Sirianni. So I
33:17
Speaker 1: would love to have him as my head coach. All right,
33:20
Speaker 1: then we're gonna put him in the list. I am
33:23
Speaker 1: happy to do it. I'm happy to root for the Bears.
33:25
Speaker 1: Find reasons to root for the Bears. Give me the
33:27
Speaker 1: Bears plus three and a half. We're putting them in
33:31
Speaker 1: Baboo Eagles. However, Philadelphia Eagles at Detroit Lions. We were
33:37
Speaker 1: spot on about this Lions game last week. We said,
33:41
Speaker 1: if we're gonna have to bet any one of these
33:42
Speaker 1: teams that were double digit underdogs, we were going with
33:45
Speaker 1: the Lions because, as you pointed out, this team does
33:48
Speaker 1: not give up. They were down thirty four to three
33:55
Speaker 1: two weeks ago, went for the two point conversion after
33:59
Speaker 1: scoring a touchdown, then went for the onside kick. They
34:02
Speaker 1: were calling time outs until the end and then long behold.
34:05
Speaker 1: That's exactly what they did against the Rams, score first
34:09
Speaker 1: on side kick, fake punt, steel possessions. It was like,
34:15
Speaker 1: you know, Jared Goff interception by Jalen Ramsey, which to
34:19
Speaker 1: me felt like the worst way for them to lose.
34:23
Speaker 1: It was golf, like that's just you know, you root
34:26
Speaker 1: so hard for the guy they have, like the such
34:30
Speaker 1: a good player who probably thinks golf is such an
34:32
Speaker 1: idiot do that at the end of the game that
34:35
Speaker 1: hurt the last seem just not stop now, and they
34:39
Speaker 1: deserve I think it comes our way though, for keeping
34:41
Speaker 1: golf and not taking fields or mac Jones like we
34:44
Speaker 1: know golf was. Um, there is no sicker feeling than
34:48
Speaker 1: having the choice money line that first half and you're
34:51
Speaker 1: up ten nothing and you still felt like you're gonna
34:53
Speaker 1: lose that bet because it's Jared Golf and it's third
34:57
Speaker 1: and three, and it feels like it's third and fifty,
34:59
Speaker 1: Like I can't of the ball four yards sometimes. So man,
35:02
Speaker 1: I hate Detroit. Um, there's such a ce saw team.
35:07
Speaker 1: One week they'll play good, they'll come back, they'll play amazing.
35:10
Speaker 1: The next week they will completely fall apart and do nothing.
35:13
Speaker 1: It looks like a team that is oh and six.
35:15
Speaker 1: So if we're going by that metric, this is a
35:18
Speaker 1: down week for Detroit. For some reason. They cover and
35:21
Speaker 1: then they don't cover. They cover them, they don't cover.
35:23
Speaker 1: So I coming into this, I wanted to take Detroit. Like.
35:26
Speaker 1: The Eagles suck. The Eagles defense is terrible. The Oakland,
35:30
Speaker 1: I mean Las Vegas creators didn't have Darren Waller or Jacobs,
35:34
Speaker 1: and to me, that was like, again, that's why I
35:37
Speaker 1: couldn't fault you for a lot of love and Eagles.
35:39
Speaker 1: That was such a smart number to take a team's
35:41
Speaker 1: missing their two best offensive weapons. Eagles defense couldn't stop them.
35:45
Speaker 1: They literally could not stop them that whole game. So yeah,
35:48
Speaker 1: I look at this number. My first instincts is to
35:51
Speaker 1: the fade the lines here and take the Eagles, who
35:53
Speaker 1: are just a little bit not as terrible. But I mean,
35:57
Speaker 1: this is just a good number. It's plus three, that's
35:59
Speaker 1: what I had it as, don't have any crazy value.
36:01
Speaker 1: But we'll see as the week goes on here. I
36:04
Speaker 1: can't see this being one of our five. The Eagles
36:06
Speaker 1: are such an interesting team. They come out and play
36:08
Speaker 1: great in the first series every single week, and then
36:12
Speaker 1: it's like they can't make a single adjustment off of
36:15
Speaker 1: the adjustments that the defenses make. They just don't know
36:18
Speaker 1: what to do. And then at the end of the game,
36:19
Speaker 1: when it's sort of a free for all and the
36:21
Speaker 1: other team has let up the gas a little bit,
36:23
Speaker 1: that's when they can finally come back and play. That's
36:25
Speaker 1: how you know that that whoever is calling the place,
36:28
Speaker 1: and I think it is Sirianni doesn't know what the
36:30
Speaker 1: funk he's doing. No, And there's something to this, like
36:34
Speaker 1: I don't want to be an agis in person. I
36:36
Speaker 1: hate saying like older guys should have these kind of jobs.
36:39
Speaker 1: This feels like such a typical situation for this Eagles team,
36:42
Speaker 1: where they got a young DC, they got a young
36:45
Speaker 1: head coach. All the guys in this coaching group, we're
36:47
Speaker 1: all a bunch of young guys. They completely seem like
36:49
Speaker 1: they're out of their element here, like they just they're
36:51
Speaker 1: just not into it. Where you see these other teams
36:53
Speaker 1: they hire these guys who've been around the block. Yeah,
36:56
Speaker 1: they might do some stupid old timey stuff, but they
36:58
Speaker 1: just get it. They get football, they get certain things
37:01
Speaker 1: and different schemes you need to run. So I do
37:03
Speaker 1: look at this Egos team that that they might be
37:05
Speaker 1: a one and done. This coaching staff. I love that
37:09
Speaker 1: you're willing to support the old people. I'm all about
37:13
Speaker 1: old people, man, I I I've learned. I've learned, especially
37:16
Speaker 1: in the sports betting world, age truly is wisdom. There.
37:19
Speaker 1: They might say some stuff you disagree with, you think
37:21
Speaker 1: they're stupid, but if you just shut up, and listen.
37:24
Speaker 1: You'll learn these guys usually know what they're talking about.
37:27
Speaker 1: That's why they've been in this industry so long. So
37:29
Speaker 1: that is definitely something I try to pass along to people,
37:31
Speaker 1: is that you might think you have all the answers,
37:33
Speaker 1: and you might think you know what you're talking about,
37:36
Speaker 1: you probably don't. I am more confident and less in
37:44
Speaker 1: the need to prove it at fifty than I ever
37:48
Speaker 1: was at thirty. That's fact. I'm always trying even even
37:52
Speaker 1: when I made it, I'm still trying to prove it.
37:54
Speaker 1: So it's definitely a different mindset. It is. It totally
37:57
Speaker 1: is Los Angeles Rams at Houston Texans. The Texas are
38:02
Speaker 1: fourteen and a half point dogs. They gave it a
38:04
Speaker 1: go against the Cardinals. That was a game where in
38:07
Speaker 1: the first half they tried so hard they really did.
38:11
Speaker 1: Do we think to Rod Taylor is going to play
38:13
Speaker 1: this week because that changes the calculus on this handicap
38:17
Speaker 1: for sure. If he's playing, people guarantee you this is one.
38:20
Speaker 1: I mean Chad's five. We you have to go look
38:24
Speaker 1: back at the earlier year his splits with this team.
38:27
Speaker 1: I think they have one more touchdown. He played only
38:29
Speaker 1: a game and a half. They've only scored one more
38:31
Speaker 1: touchdown in the six weeks he's been out. Then the
38:35
Speaker 1: game and a half he played, he he he made
38:38
Speaker 1: this offense go. And I would love for him to
38:41
Speaker 1: come back because that sparks some life into this team.
38:44
Speaker 1: I love it if it stays at four team, when
38:46
Speaker 1: he comes back in our contest or one of our five,
38:49
Speaker 1: I love, love, love Houston in this position. But if not,
38:55
Speaker 1: then we pass. Even though it's a massive, massive home underdog.
39:00
Speaker 1: I'm done lighting money off fire for Davis Mills. I can't.
39:02
Speaker 1: I can't do it anymore. Hey, at least you got
39:04
Speaker 1: his name right. Yeah, there we go, Like he he
39:07
Speaker 1: paid me out for that Patriots game. He should have
39:09
Speaker 1: won that game. I would forever been in love with
39:11
Speaker 1: the guy. He didn't. I should have learned right then
39:13
Speaker 1: and there. This guy is a complete joke. But no
39:17
Speaker 1: can I will not be betting him as a big
39:18
Speaker 1: dog again this week. Well tell me why speaking to
39:23
Speaker 1: the Patriots because I don't want to spend too much
39:25
Speaker 1: time on the Texas in the Rams. It's so weird though,
39:30
Speaker 1: like a couple of years ago, we wouldn't have even
39:32
Speaker 1: hesitated on a lot of these games. As dogs, the
39:36
Speaker 1: Lions at three and a half um, the Taxans at
39:39
Speaker 1: fourteen and a half, Like it wouldn't even have been
39:43
Speaker 1: a conversation the Jets, you know, say, what was Zach
39:47
Speaker 1: Wilson like not even hesitating on some of these huge
39:50
Speaker 1: home dogs. The calculus and all this has changed the
39:53
Speaker 1: past few years a little bit. I mean I still
39:56
Speaker 1: skew towards home dogs, but I've been trying to go
40:01
Speaker 1: with the times here, Like the public is dominating, so
40:03
Speaker 1: there's sometimes where it's like I'm getting crazy value I
40:05
Speaker 1: but I need to take a step back and think
40:07
Speaker 1: to myself, Man, they're just not covering. And that's what's
40:11
Speaker 1: been happening this year. These these dogs just aren't covering
40:13
Speaker 1: against these really chalk favorites. You're revolving. I adjust with
40:17
Speaker 1: the times, whatever has happened. I try to adjust with
40:19
Speaker 1: what's happening. That's how you stay modern and relevant. I
40:23
Speaker 1: learned that on TikTok, New England Patriots at Los Angeles Chargers.
40:28
Speaker 1: The Chargers five and a half point favorites. They're off
40:31
Speaker 1: of by they got slacked the last time we saw them,
40:34
Speaker 1: which was a totally smashed spot for the Rabits. I
40:37
Speaker 1: think we you and I were aligned on that from
40:40
Speaker 1: the second. No, we weren't. Actually I loved it. You
40:43
Speaker 1: were afraid of it because you're a coward, and you're young,
40:45
Speaker 1: and you don't have the confidence and wisdom of age.
40:48
Speaker 1: Simon Hunter, professional coward. I take the Chargers all day here.
40:54
Speaker 1: Of course, of course we love the Chargers here. Mac
40:58
Speaker 1: Jones on the road after big fifty point when at
41:01
Speaker 1: home against the Jets. I love the faded position here.
41:04
Speaker 1: We take the Chargers not just because they're off of
41:07
Speaker 1: bye but because this is probably peak peak value um
41:12
Speaker 1: where everyone's just the public is just feeling great about
41:15
Speaker 1: this Patriots team. So as long as it stays under
41:18
Speaker 1: six six and a half, again we talked about that's
41:20
Speaker 1: such a key number. We got no issue taking the
41:23
Speaker 1: Chargers team. The only fear is the fourth down regression man.
41:27
Speaker 1: That was bad against the Ravens last time they played.
41:29
Speaker 1: They could not get picked up a fourth down. So
41:32
Speaker 1: it's always a little scary with back on the Chargers team.
41:34
Speaker 1: But after a bye week and I get right spot
41:37
Speaker 1: this because this is one of these we're probably betting
41:40
Speaker 1: on comes Sunday. Yeah, I don't know why. Why wouldn't
41:45
Speaker 1: everybody see this, Like, how is this not one of
41:48
Speaker 1: those things that everyone is is gonna notice? Do you
41:51
Speaker 1: know what I mean? It's it's a team that was
41:53
Speaker 1: pretty public and people were pretty excited about before they
41:57
Speaker 1: lost to the Ravens. We we recognize what was happening. Um,
42:02
Speaker 1: the bets on the Chargers of the money, it feels
42:07
Speaker 1: like the bookmakers made a bad line. That's it's a
42:11
Speaker 1: good line. It's honestly, it's because the Patriots can run
42:14
Speaker 1: the ball, and we've seen it with this Chargers team.
42:15
Speaker 1: They can be rain on. So I get why they
42:18
Speaker 1: hung it. I can see, Like again, I watched the
42:21
Speaker 1: money come in on it. It seems a couple of
42:22
Speaker 1: pros have hit this with the Patriots. But I just again,
42:27
Speaker 1: I think they're thinking themselves. You know what, The public's
42:29
Speaker 1: gon overvalue the Chargers team because, like you just said it,
42:31
Speaker 1: for that Ravens team, there are people's favorite team to
42:34
Speaker 1: win the Super Bowl. People are really hyping them up.
42:36
Speaker 1: So um, it's it's a fair number to me, as
42:40
Speaker 1: long as it's below six. Again, that's that's such a
42:42
Speaker 1: key number nowadays, six is a key number. More games
42:45
Speaker 1: landing on sixth and seven. It's the new six? Is
42:47
Speaker 1: the new seven? It really is. The Jaguars finally won
42:51
Speaker 1: a game. Uh. They are now on the road at
42:53
Speaker 1: the reeling free losses in a row Seattle Seahawks. Jacksonville
42:58
Speaker 1: Jaguars at Seattle Seahawks. Gino Smith. I saw us stat
43:03
Speaker 1: following at Action Network gags Q six and one against
43:06
Speaker 1: the spread and primetime games in his career, which is
43:09
Speaker 1: amazing because I can't believe he's played seven primetime games.
43:12
Speaker 1: Um uh, since he hasn't played a game in eight
43:16
Speaker 1: years until this past year, until these past few weeks.
43:19
Speaker 1: Three and a half points Seahawks at home? Oh, Gino
43:23
Speaker 1: Smith the greatest West Virginia quarterback ever? Uh yeah, guys,
43:28
Speaker 1: unbelievable against the spread? Hate this number? I hate. I
43:31
Speaker 1: have to take the Jacks. Why are they doing this
43:32
Speaker 1: to me? Chat? Why? Uh? Coming off a bye week,
43:40
Speaker 1: Urbans had his time with the bar with that blonde girl. Okay,
43:43
Speaker 1: they've had their downtime. Now they're getting right this week.
43:47
Speaker 1: I don't know what to do, Like, it's three and
43:50
Speaker 1: a half too horrible teams? How do I not take
43:52
Speaker 1: the ugly three and a half dog? The public will
43:56
Speaker 1: be coming in heavy on Seahawks. Everyone hates the Jaguars,
44:00
Speaker 1: hate that I have to bet the Jaguars. So I'm
44:03
Speaker 1: not gonna make it anywhere like Foxhill any of that stuff,
44:05
Speaker 1: because I can't do it anymore with the fans of
44:07
Speaker 1: the show. But yes, Jags three and a half, Jags
44:11
Speaker 1: money line, I'll be bet in all of it. We're
44:13
Speaker 1: gonna have to go into the Foxhill with somebody, buddy, Oh,
44:16
Speaker 1: it's coming up by far. The Jack Seahawks is the
44:21
Speaker 1: corner TV game. Like I I thought there were no
44:24
Speaker 1: bets on this Carolina Falcons game. Forget it, this Jack
44:28
Speaker 1: Seahawks game. Nobody wants a piece of it. You're messing out.
44:32
Speaker 1: I I really do think Jack a good spot here.
44:37
Speaker 1: That's the most disgusting thing you've ever said to me,
44:39
Speaker 1: and off the air you have said some pretty disgusting
44:41
Speaker 1: things to me. I think this game might go higher.
44:46
Speaker 1: Do you think it'll go above three and a half?
44:48
Speaker 1: It could because like public is gonna come in, so
44:50
Speaker 1: have you. Like, no one likes bend the Jaguars again.
44:53
Speaker 1: Every time we take them. It's literally a hundred mentions
44:56
Speaker 1: each time, people yelling at me because they just hate
44:58
Speaker 1: betting the Jaguars. I get it, they're awful, but this
45:02
Speaker 1: numbers over valued. We've seen the Seahawks team has yet
45:06
Speaker 1: to win without Russell Wilson. So you're giving me three
45:08
Speaker 1: and a half with an ugly dog. I gotta take it.
45:12
Speaker 1: Buccaneers qb QT, Tom Terrific, Tom loves Tuddies visiting the Saints.
45:21
Speaker 1: Saints are five point underdogs at home. This is a
45:26
Speaker 1: dreadful team. Really, like you're you're seeing what a brilliant
45:32
Speaker 1: coach Sean Payton is. Difference between Sean Payton and Kyle Shanahan.
45:35
Speaker 1: Sean Payton, you're getting shitty quarterbacks. He's still finding ways
45:38
Speaker 1: to win. Kyle Shannahan, you're getting shretty quarterbacks. He's getting
45:41
Speaker 1: credit for his team looking good but not actually winning.
45:44
Speaker 1: Tampa Bay Buccaneers at New Orleans Saints. If I've learned
45:49
Speaker 1: anything in my life, this is the kind of time
45:52
Speaker 1: you get everybody named Chat and you're hopping a foxhel
45:54
Speaker 1: and you bet the Saints. Let's clide down into the foxhole.
46:03
Speaker 1: We gotta bet this, buddy. Come on, you cannot be
46:06
Speaker 1: telling me we're jumping into the foxhole with Tom Hanks
46:10
Speaker 1: and everybody else, and we're gonna try to save Jameis
46:13
Speaker 1: Winston and the New Orleans Saints as home underdogs in
46:17
Speaker 1: this spot. You've allowed no time for analysis or decision making.
46:21
Speaker 1: Can we get serious now? Saints look absolutely horrible last night.
46:25
Speaker 1: They couldn't do anything right. Tampa Bay just won by
46:28
Speaker 1: thirty odd points. They've never looked better. Tom's never looked better.
46:32
Speaker 1: They're getting guys back this week. They're getting they should
46:35
Speaker 1: be getting a b back. Maybe Gronk will be back. Man.
46:38
Speaker 1: The public is going to love, love, love, love love.
46:42
Speaker 1: Tampa had this number three and a half. I saw
46:45
Speaker 1: it open. I think a four or four and a half.
46:47
Speaker 1: Who sports books are gonna be getting hammered on this
46:51
Speaker 1: Tampa line, So I get it. People. You've you've been
46:55
Speaker 1: killing it the last three or four weeks, just absolutely
46:57
Speaker 1: killing the sports books. This screams trap. Everything about this
47:01
Speaker 1: line is a trap. Everyone's gonna have this in their
47:03
Speaker 1: money line, parlay all third in their teasers across the zero.
47:06
Speaker 1: They didn't care. Everyone's been Tampa this week. Chad, you
47:11
Speaker 1: gotta just hold your nose and bet New Orleans here.
47:13
Speaker 1: You gotta trust this number Tampa if they win this game.
47:16
Speaker 1: They winning by a field goal. They're not blowing the
47:18
Speaker 1: Saints team out. The Saints last year they matched up
47:21
Speaker 1: so well both times against the Buccaneers. So everything that
47:25
Speaker 1: the Saints do well in defense, it counteracts what this
47:28
Speaker 1: Tampa Bay team does well on offense. So love, love
47:31
Speaker 1: this number. As long as stays above four, I'm happy
47:34
Speaker 1: to take it. Well, that's what I was gonna say, Like,
47:37
Speaker 1: the Buccaneers have not played a defense like this so
47:43
Speaker 1: far this year. The Eagles, they were pretty much dominating
47:47
Speaker 1: that game. The Dolphins are terrible. The Patriots are the
47:51
Speaker 1: one team where they had a struggle. They didn't they
47:53
Speaker 1: didn't cover the motion on the road though, That's what
47:55
Speaker 1: we're about to go through it. It's on the road
47:57
Speaker 1: is where we're seeing Tampa have trouble. They lost to
48:00
Speaker 1: the Rams on the road. Uh, I think you're right. No,
48:06
Speaker 1: it is like I've had multiple people reach out to
48:08
Speaker 1: me about that, and that was why I was so
48:10
Speaker 1: heavy on Tampa last week. Now, it was just because
48:11
Speaker 1: of the Baron matchup. They've just played really well at
48:14
Speaker 1: home and on the road they play close, stinky games,
48:18
Speaker 1: ugly games. I mean, we just talked about Eagles are
48:20
Speaker 1: horrible Eagles back door tough. So it's I don't think
48:24
Speaker 1: the Saints are as terrible as the Eagles, so I
48:27
Speaker 1: do again, I think you're getting a good number here people.
48:29
Speaker 1: It's I I understand. It's That's why I try to
48:31
Speaker 1: tell people the less you watch a football the easier
48:34
Speaker 1: it is that bet this, because after watching that game
48:36
Speaker 1: last night, it's really hard to convince people you have
48:39
Speaker 1: to bet the Saints here, but you do. This is
48:42
Speaker 1: a perfect spot to take this team. I love your courage.
48:46
Speaker 1: I'm going in where the foxhol cover me, cover me.
48:52
Speaker 1: Washington football team at Denver Broncos. The Washington football team
48:57
Speaker 1: three point dogs. Gross, so gross. I don't know, like
49:03
Speaker 1: made this line three or I think I'm at a
49:05
Speaker 1: two and a half. So I guess I could say
49:08
Speaker 1: the values on the Washington football team. But I hate
49:11
Speaker 1: this nine. Like if I'm gonna bet Teddy, I went
49:13
Speaker 1: Teddy being underdog and I want to be a favorite
49:14
Speaker 1: at home. And I feel like that was that there
49:18
Speaker 1: gave everything Washington last week with the Green Bay they
49:21
Speaker 1: couldn't even cover I mean bad, just a bad team.
49:25
Speaker 1: So no no real feeling on this game. I'd probably
49:27
Speaker 1: just stay away the other game that we wrote about
49:31
Speaker 1: an Action network dot com. I wrote, I said, in
49:33
Speaker 1: the beginning, we had two games from weekend that we
49:36
Speaker 1: were betting right away. The Steelers against the Browns was one,
49:41
Speaker 1: and we like the Steelers. The Cowboys at the Vikings
49:45
Speaker 1: is the other, and we bet the Cowboys. What say you,
49:49
Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys at Minnesota Vikings, You fools? Of course I
49:56
Speaker 1: love the Vikings Vikings at Home as an underdog. You
50:00
Speaker 1: bet this every time, people. I believe in Zimmer's career,
50:02
Speaker 1: it's hitting it over sixty seven front sixty seven percent.
50:05
Speaker 1: Clip Vikings at Home as a dog every prime time.
50:09
Speaker 1: They're getting less than ten percent of the bet less
50:11
Speaker 1: ten percent of the money. Love love, love, love love again.
50:15
Speaker 1: I'm telling you people, this is the trap week. They're
50:18
Speaker 1: they're getting all their money back this week Las Vegas.
50:21
Speaker 1: They've they've been given it away to you in jobs.
50:24
Speaker 1: This is a get right week for them. Everyone of
50:26
Speaker 1: their grandma is gonna have their parley tied to this
50:28
Speaker 1: bet on Sunday and night. Everyone's gonna end their night
50:30
Speaker 1: with cowboys money line cowboys that cover this number. God,
50:34
Speaker 1: I hate doing it. Um. If it wasn't for the Colts.
50:37
Speaker 1: This would be my biggest bet of the week. I
50:38
Speaker 1: I love the Vikings. You're kidding me? Yeah, and again
50:43
Speaker 1: the Cowboys are undefeated a t S two. It's everything
50:46
Speaker 1: just points to you. Take Minnesota here. Like again, I
50:50
Speaker 1: bet Cowboys went Super Bowl. I think they're a great team.
50:52
Speaker 1: Trap spot. This is a classic trap spot. They're gonna
50:55
Speaker 1: be getting all the love and a prime time matchup here.
50:59
Speaker 1: So I can't tell you how much I do love
51:01
Speaker 1: this Minnesota matchup. But is there other than this situation.
51:06
Speaker 1: It's a great situation. Outside of the situation, you gotta
51:09
Speaker 1: look at the analysis. Is there anything in the analysis
51:11
Speaker 1: that says, oh yeah, this makes sense the Vikings like
51:15
Speaker 1: takeaway any success the Cowboys had. Look at the bad
51:18
Speaker 1: luck the Vikings have had a little bit of that. No,
51:22
Speaker 1: they're a little bit of that. I mean the number
51:23
Speaker 1: is if you want to get into it, it's honestly
51:25
Speaker 1: about the run metrics with you know, Dalvi McCook at
51:28
Speaker 1: home and this run style against this Cowboys team, which
51:31
Speaker 1: they're gonna be able to run it on. Also the Cowboys,
51:34
Speaker 1: it's regression, like their turnover rate, it's absurd, like digs
51:39
Speaker 1: every other game is how to pick six. That's just
51:41
Speaker 1: not sustainable. We've never seen anything like that NFL history. Doc.
51:45
Speaker 1: I know he's playing out of his mind. That's the
51:47
Speaker 1: only fear in this matchup where all the stats point
51:50
Speaker 1: towards Doc like he's in an MVP season. His team's
51:53
Speaker 1: down by a touch inner two, you really don't have
51:55
Speaker 1: any fear because Dack's gonna come back. Like they have
51:57
Speaker 1: arguably the three best receivers on football. So if you're
52:00
Speaker 1: just looking at the math on paper, it's a good line.
52:03
Speaker 1: I had this line of two. It's two and a half. Now,
52:05
Speaker 1: that's that's a good number by the books, but man,
52:09
Speaker 1: it's it just screams trap. Everything I look at on
52:12
Speaker 1: paper that's just screams a trap. So I have to
52:14
Speaker 1: trust my sticks here and take this Minnesota team at home. Well,
52:19
Speaker 1: do you know, if for no other reason, I love
52:21
Speaker 1: when we take the Minnesota Vikings so I can sing
52:27
Speaker 1: We've got the Minnesota Vikings. I know it's our Thursday show,
52:33
Speaker 1: but I'll save it for Thursday. I'll save it. Chat
52:37
Speaker 1: is a heart out. I got a heart out. Dude.
52:41
Speaker 1: You're so media. Listen to you, You're so media. All
52:44
Speaker 1: of a sudden. Last game on the board the Monday
52:46
Speaker 1: night game New York Giants at Kansas City Chiefs. The
53:00
Speaker 1: Giants are ten point underdogs against the get right Kansas
53:06
Speaker 1: City Chiefs. Every fiber in my body wants to fade
53:09
Speaker 1: the Giants, like after a big win at home, not
53:12
Speaker 1: even a close one they blew out Carolina. But we
53:16
Speaker 1: can't do it, Chad, how do we keep how do
53:18
Speaker 1: we how do we make money? Here? All we do
53:20
Speaker 1: is bet against the Chiefs. It's been serving us so
53:22
Speaker 1: well the last two years. We can't stop doing it. Yeah,
53:25
Speaker 1: there's nothing about me that wants to bet against that
53:27
Speaker 1: wants to bet against the Giants here. It feels like
53:30
Speaker 1: Daniel Jones obviously last week at home. There's always that story.
53:34
Speaker 1: Bet him on the road, bet against him at home.
53:37
Speaker 1: I'm never like a huge believer in those systems. I
53:40
Speaker 1: don't find there's anything tangible there um, But I do
53:44
Speaker 1: think this is the right spot for the Giants, Like
53:45
Speaker 1: they're just not They shouldn't be ten point underdogs. This
53:48
Speaker 1: Chiefs team that just isn't very good right now. That's
53:50
Speaker 1: the biggest thing that goes Who who the hell are
53:52
Speaker 1: the Chiefs to be fair by that many points. Um. Again,
53:56
Speaker 1: we could get unlucky and they could have them melt
53:57
Speaker 1: down the Giants in the second half, just like Washington didn't.
54:00
Speaker 1: Washington did at home against his chief's team. But you
54:03
Speaker 1: can't bet on that kind of stuff. You have to
54:04
Speaker 1: bet on what you're looking at. If you're just looking
54:06
Speaker 1: at pure numbers and value, this number at most should
54:09
Speaker 1: be six. You're getting three and a half points of
54:11
Speaker 1: value with the Giants here. So yeah, I love the Giants.
54:16
Speaker 1: That's just the fear, like you just talked about. It's
54:19
Speaker 1: a stupid saying, but the numbers prove it out. He's
54:22
Speaker 1: terrible at home. He's good on the road, Daniel Jones.
54:24
Speaker 1: So if I wasn't looking at those splits, i'd have
54:27
Speaker 1: no issues betterness. But you have to look at the
54:29
Speaker 1: data and he's just not good at home. So I
54:32
Speaker 1: do love this number, but it's not gonna be one
54:33
Speaker 1: of my bigger belts. All right. Well, we've narrowed down
54:37
Speaker 1: the board quite a bit. We got a bunch of
54:38
Speaker 1: games that we're gonna be looking at um as we
54:42
Speaker 1: head into Thursday. We're gonna keep an eye on the
54:45
Speaker 1: Steelers and the Cleveland Browns. We are gonna keep an
54:51
Speaker 1: eye maybe on uh, the Bengals and the Jets. Um
54:58
Speaker 1: we love, Simon said, is go bet the Colts plus
55:01
Speaker 1: one and a half. I've already done that on FanDuel
55:03
Speaker 1: on my app while we recorded the show. We're gonna
55:08
Speaker 1: do the Bears plus three and a half. You know,
55:11
Speaker 1: that's just what we're gonna doing. We still like the
55:15
Speaker 1: Chargers minus five and a half. We're on the fence
55:18
Speaker 1: about the Eagles and Lines. I'm sure we'll pick that
55:20
Speaker 1: one up. You're trying to convince me the jack to
55:22
Speaker 1: the right side. We both love the Saints against the
55:25
Speaker 1: Bucks at home, the Vikes plus two against Dallas, and
55:28
Speaker 1: the Giants plus ten. It's gonna be harder to narrow
55:30
Speaker 1: this down than we think. Like you just reading off
55:33
Speaker 1: the list, it feels like a really good sharp week.
55:36
Speaker 1: Like man, the public has had an incredible run your
55:38
Speaker 1: last three or four weeks. The books know what they're doing.
55:41
Speaker 1: They're laying traps. So I love the games you just
55:43
Speaker 1: read off Weligh in some traps, what's our scooch roulette? Pick?
55:49
Speaker 1: Time to take down the Hops? When all hope is lost,
55:54
Speaker 1: all this left is relief. Well, let's play Scott. You
56:02
Speaker 1: won last week. You had the packers eye of the Eagles,
56:05
Speaker 1: so you get to make your choice. I mean I
56:10
Speaker 1: like giving out layups. If people want to lay up,
56:12
Speaker 1: take the Colts. It feels like the easiest bet on
56:14
Speaker 1: the board. This week. I'm gonna show some courage. I
56:19
Speaker 1: am gonna go with the New Orleans Saints. Wow. I
56:24
Speaker 1: love it. As we discussed it, I loved it, loved it,
56:28
Speaker 1: loved it, loved it. You're taking the Colts plus one
56:31
Speaker 1: and a half against the Titans. I'm taking the Saints
56:34
Speaker 1: plus five against the Bucks. Let's road in Monds and
56:38
Speaker 1: play some Scooch Roulette. That's what we're doing. On Thursday.
56:42
Speaker 1: We will narrow down the slate even further, talk about
56:45
Speaker 1: the games that we liked that I just listed. We
56:47
Speaker 1: will give out our big balls better the week we
56:49
Speaker 1: did not do that we gave out Simon says. We'll
56:51
Speaker 1: talk about our money line round Robin Parlay. We will
56:54
Speaker 1: talk about survivor can't Wait. We'll talk about your lacrosse
56:58
