- 0:59over Honestly, I had a really good time gambling
- 1:04not a great time watching the Titans We will
- 1:07get into that a little bit later but to recap
- 1:11My record for last week, so I ended up going
- 1:15eight and four with all the picks that I ended
- 1:17up giving out I ended up betting a lot more games
- 1:22than I thought I would like kind of like how
- 1:24I said on the on the pod because we just Feels
- 1:27like we found a play for every game I didn't
- 1:29play every game But I played most of them and
- 1:32ended up eight and four not bad ended up winning
- 1:35my surefire pick That line From when we recorded
- 1:40to when it was Sunday went up three points but
- 1:45Six and a half still covered so hey if you tailed
- 1:51Whatever the the points was you probably hit
- 1:54it unless it went to seven than you and you pushed.
- 1:57But hey, that's besides the point. But yeah,
- 2:00I'm feeling good. Not so much about the Titans.
- 2:04But we'll get in. We'll we'll we'll dive into
- 2:06that a little bit later. But Chris, how did you
- 2:08do last week? I did pretty well went 12 and nine
- 2:12all sudden done across all the the five days
- 2:17of NFL four or five days of NFL we had That includes
- 2:21the props. I got stuff in props because it was
- 2:23just sides and totals. I would have done pretty
- 2:25damn well. Um, so I might just quit giving up
- 2:28props. Um, was staring down the barrel of a rough,
- 2:32rough Sunday. Um, but I cash for sure fire. Thanks
- 2:35to a miracle comeback from the saints. Um, that
- 2:38was much needed. Then had a pretty good afternoon
- 2:40site when three and on the afternoons, um, had
- 2:43really good Monday. So yeah, roo vibes are high
- 2:46going into week two. Um, let's let's win them
- 2:49all who cares uh sean how you doing um doing
- 2:54well i don't have my record uh but i did go up
- 2:5917 and a half units from wednesday to monday
- 3:05pretty damn good pretty pretty good uh no i only
- 3:11went up like half a unit on sunday which is i
- 3:15assume not good Well, what my record was but
- 3:19that's green it's it's in the green Yeah, I kind
- 3:23of got I kind of got smoked on some props as
- 3:27well some parlays But yeah, I think in the picks
- 3:33that I gave out I didn't do too bad But I'd have
- 3:37to take a deeper dive into that. I did bet every
- 3:40game. So I bet all 17 games I believe Yeah, when
- 3:46you, I was like, why not? When you texted your
- 3:49card Sunday morning and it was big ol' one, I
- 3:52was like, he bet every game, that son of a bitch.
- 3:56The road to 272 starts now. I did, I did the
- 4:02bet every game in week one, one year and I got,
- 4:05been over a barrel. So I vowed never to do that
- 4:07again. But every week one, I'm always like, I
- 4:10can do it. I can do it. Just watch. Cool. Well,
- 4:18all right. So week one is over. Some surprises,
- 4:24some not surprises. Honestly, football's back.
- 4:29There's a lot more structure to my life. I'm
- 4:32happy. We're good. There's not going to be another
- 4:35game in Australia this season. So that's great.
- 4:40Well, I guess it was the same for us. There's
- 4:45not gonna be a Wednesday game, you know, barring
- 4:48any holidays, of course. But now we have the
- 4:52Thursday, Sunday, and Monday. We're good. This
- 4:57is this is the structure my life needs. But okay,
- 5:02do we want to before we dive into picks for week
- 5:05two, do we want to sort of recap kind of what's
- 5:08going on from week one? Or do we want to do picks
- 5:11first, and then look back? Let's do picks first.
- 5:15It's what people are here for. Yes. It's what
- 5:18the millions and millions of three for the money
- 5:22fans are here for the picks. Okay. So I think
- 5:28we got some good games this week. I gotta be
- 5:30honest. I do. When I was doing research for this,
- 5:35I didn't want to I wanted to really try and get
- 5:38into the mindset of like, I'm not I'm trying
- 5:40not to overreact to week one. Cuz it's not just
- 5:45week one for the players. It's week one for us,
- 5:47too, you know, it's Week one can be a fluke,
- 5:51but it could also not be a fluke best best case
- 5:54scenario You don't overreact and you just pivot
- 5:58where you need to So I'm not quite sure I've
- 6:03won one of the games we're gonna talk about I
- 6:05have an idea of what I'm gonna pick and it's
- 6:07the first game We're gonna talk about the Vikings
- 6:09Bears Let's, let's talk through. So I have an
- 6:12idea for a pick, which I mean, I guess I'll go
- 6:15later, but I do want to hear kind of everyone's
- 6:18perspective on this one. So the bears, uh, smoked
- 6:22the Carolina Panthers, um, 59 to 37. I don't
- 6:29even know if you can call that a smoking. I think
- 6:31it was 52. So it's 52, 39. I can pull. I don't
- 6:36know. They won by two. We had the technology.
- 6:38Let's see. It's like they won by 20, but 59 37
- 6:42Okay, but they but they gave up 37 points. So
- 6:45it's weird. It's like they kind of smoked them
- 6:47but they kind of didn't Are the Bears good? They
- 6:51didn't even use Coles and Loveland. I don't know
- 6:54Are we overreacting? I don't know who's to say
- 6:57but the Vikings last week miracle Come back in
- 7:04just an avalanche type fashion Packers had the
- 7:08game essentially locked up halfway to the third
- 7:11quarter. And then they just shit their pants.
- 7:15They just took a big, big dump in their pants.
- 7:18But for this Vikings Bears divisional matchup,
- 7:21Bears at home favored by five and a half points
- 7:24over under is 48 and a half. Chris, I would love
- 7:28your insight on this game. I'd love to give it
- 7:32to you, Will. I'm taking the Bears minus five
- 7:34and a half. Chicago's offense, damn near perfect.
- 7:39And we've won 552 total yards, only one turnover.
- 7:42And that was on the first drive of the game.
- 7:44Um, I think they should move the ball against
- 7:45Minnesota, Minnesota's defense. While yes, they
- 7:48did create some negative plays and really came
- 7:50up big at the end. They kind of got, I won't
- 7:53say torch, but they gave up a lot of chunk plays
- 7:55in the middle part of the game that let Green
- 7:58Bay get out to a lead. I mean, if you let that
- 8:01have to Chicago, they could run away with it.
- 8:03Um, are so just, I mean, Carson Wentz. I can't
- 8:08take, I can't put money on him. He won me money
- 8:11last week. Shout out, but I just, I don't have
- 8:17any faith in him. So yeah, I'm gonna take Chicago
- 8:20minus five and a half. Yeah, there's Trends Center
- 8:25Trend World that could help you with this one.
- 8:27Since 2008. The Vikings are 10 and 22 against
- 8:31the spread as road divisional dogs of more than
- 8:33one and a half points. Five and a half is more
- 8:36than one and a half. So I'll be taking, I'll
- 8:37be laying it with the bears minus five and a
- 8:40half. I think this would be a close one. I don't
- 8:42think they're going to blow them out by any means,
- 8:43but I think bears by anything less than that
- 8:47touchdown. Sean, what do you think? Well, we're
- 8:50not going to do Will any favors. I'm going with
- 8:53the Vikes. And we're probably gonna get Carson
- 8:58once but I don't think he really looked that
- 9:01bad. I mean he threw three touchdowns But I think
- 9:05I did some research and there's actually some
- 9:08QB success in the early weeks some backup QB
- 9:11success Since 2013 in weeks one and two backup
- 9:15QBs are 19 and 9 against the spread And after
- 9:21the Bears impressive victory, I'll call it impressive
- 9:24I won't, I won't say that, you know, they, uh,
- 9:30they did almost, they did win by 20 points, but
- 9:33they did drop almost a 40 burger on them. Um,
- 9:37but they do have to overcome the 40 20 rule,
- 9:41which is teams who have scored 40 plus points.
- 9:46And one by 20 plus points in week one are four
- 9:49and 10 against the spread. since 2010, including
- 9:53two and six against the spread when listed as
- 9:56favorites. So I'm going to go with the Vikings.
- 10:00I got some systems on my side. I got numbers
- 10:03on my side, so I'm just going to trust the numbers.
- 10:06Those are good numbers. I understand both sides
- 10:12here. On one side, I really one of them's got
- 10:15to win. One of them does have to win. Well, well,
- 10:20actually, I mean, they could tie, but but we're
- 10:24not going to bet on that. If they tied, then
- 10:27then the Vikings would win. Yeah. All right.
- 10:31Yeah. Someone has to cover. Someone has to cover
- 10:34the spread. Right. It's like on one hand. The
- 10:40Bears, it feels like they can move the ball against
- 10:43anyone, but it's also week one. And then on the
- 10:47other side, I don't I'm in the kind of in the
- 10:50same boat as Chris. I don't want to bet on Carson
- 10:53Wentz. I don't want to do that. He did look pretty
- 10:56good at times, I will say. But there were some
- 11:00times he didn't get better, much better through
- 11:03the course of the game. But there were some times
- 11:05when it was just like the what the fuck is he
- 11:08doing back there? But then, yeah, he did have
- 11:11some really good throws. And I mean, they won
- 11:12the football game. So he obviously did a job,
- 11:15you know. I'm going to use your logic against
- 11:18you will that Kevin O 'Connell makes quarterbacks
- 11:22good again. You got me. This is the logic you
- 11:26had from last week. You got me. But we have also
- 11:31seen Carson Wentz. We have seen Carson too. We
- 11:34have seen Carson Wentz fail miserably in the
- 11:36Kevin O 'Connell system. I'm not saying that
- 11:38this will be a miserable failure. I think it
- 11:41will be a good game, but I just. I just trust
- 11:46the Bears more, so I'm laying it with it. And
- 11:48also, five and a half is a lot of points, especially
- 11:53in a divisional matchup. It's a weird number,
- 11:57too. It is a weird number. Someone's going to
- 12:00miss an extra point. Right. It feels like this
- 12:06Brian Flores defense on the Vikings, it just
- 12:09felt like they were ready. Wouldn't I wouldn't
- 12:14quite say that it was more the Packers fumbling
- 12:17and shitting their own pants, but There's definitely
- 12:21a percentage of it that is of them shitting their
- 12:23own pants but I mean this deep like this Brian
- 12:27Brian Flores like the the news out of Vikings
- 12:29camp has just been like this guy is dialing up
- 12:32defenses that no no motherfucker has ever seen
- 12:36and Nobody knows how to handle it. And so in
- 12:40my brain in my brain If I factor in all that
- 12:45I'm taking the over 48 and a half because if
- 12:47the Vikings can generate turnovers Like they
- 12:52they literally showed us last week they can capitalize
- 12:56on turnovers and that's how you win football
- 12:58games score three touchdowns like six minutes,
- 13:00right and like in One hand if I just compare
- 13:05from what we've seen from week one from the Bears
- 13:08It's like it doesn't matter if they turn the
- 13:10ball over. Yeah, granted. They only did it once
- 13:13But like, they scored 52 points on a playoff
- 13:18team. So I'm going over 48 and a half. Feels
- 13:23like a lot. I don't know. Kind of feels like
- 13:27a cop out pick. But I'm just gonna play. Who
- 13:31cares? It's only money. Can't take it with you.
- 13:35But all right. That was a good session. I do
- 13:38have a pick for the next game though. Are we
- 13:39ready to move on? Yes, sir. Okay, so the next
- 13:42game. What? No, so the next game the Bengals
- 13:48at the Texans the Texans are favored by three
- 13:52the over -under is forty six and a half the Bengals
- 13:57There they've for the past couple years their
- 14:01defense has been absolute dogshit and their offense
- 14:04has been stellar I Wouldn't say they they shut
- 14:10out the Bucks But the game ended like what like
- 14:1233 to 20 or something. 3327. 3327. And so like
- 14:19it was still a high scoring game. And the Bucks,
- 14:25the Bengals defense is pretty average, honestly.
- 14:31They have four turnovers. One take back for a
- 14:35touchdown. Yeah. Me and Sean went to the Titans
- 14:39game, so I did not. get to see any of that game.
- 14:42I didn't I haven't watched any of the highlights.
- 14:44Pardon me. Picker was ass. Anyway, sorry. So
- 14:49he had three fumbles. That's points. Do you fumble?
- 14:55He had three of them. The other one was Bucky,
- 14:57I think. Yeah, okay. Nevertheless, I saw he went
- 15:0223 for 28. Oh, like, yeah, like passing wise
- 15:05to dig it. But yeah, three fumbles. One guy returned
- 15:06for a touchdown. Okay. Well, Okay, well, it's
- 15:12not the box game. Let's get right. So my take
- 15:16on the on the kind of thing is like, the Bengals
- 15:19just need an average defense to be like a top
- 15:23tier team, like not just a top tier offense,
- 15:26but a top tier team, they just need to be average
- 15:29in order to win games. So I mean, I'll go first.
- 15:36I like the over in this game. Like over 46 and
- 15:39a half the Texans defense I'm trying not to overreact
- 15:45but like the bill scored like 36 points 38 I
- 15:49think 38 that's a lot of points and it's like
- 15:52yeah, it's the bills. It's Josh Allen, but hey
- 15:56Is your defense really that good? I don't know
- 16:00over 46 and a half. It feels like it talking
- 16:05about like last week in the Bengals game like
- 16:07Jamar chase had like two catches That was terrible
- 16:12because he was on my fantasy team and I lost
- 16:14so Jamar chase revenge game count it Revenge
- 16:21game, but I Think I like the over over 46 and
- 16:26a half. It feels like that and I mean like the
- 16:28bills defense We aren't comparing it to last
- 16:30week like I Think they're average and it's like
- 16:34if If they're the kind of like the same tier
- 16:37of defense, I feel like the Texans could definitely
- 16:40score some points Now if we're taking into account
- 16:45two games before like the the last Texans game
- 16:49in the playoffs The shitting your pants factor
- 16:52is definitely there for CJ Strout. Did he shit
- 16:56his pants in the Bills game? I don't know. I
- 16:59I didn't watch that game. I didn't watch the
- 17:01highlights I was getting sunburned and Watching
- 17:04the Titans be the worst team in the NFL So I
- 17:09didn't catch it but they were still able to score
- 17:12so Because because I had the under in that game
- 17:16and it went over second quarter Not looking good,
- 17:23but that's okay. We made up for it. So I like
- 17:26the over over 46 and a half I know I said a lot
- 17:29and I threw a lot at you Not a lot of it is coherent,
- 17:33but Sean. What do you think? I'm with you wholeheartedly.
- 17:38Okay over 46 and a half. I still think the Texans
- 17:41defense is good. But I mean like the bills just
- 17:46kind of walked all over him, but I mean Texas
- 17:49were keeping up. Do I mean they scored 32 points
- 17:53as well. I mean they they obviously show promise
- 17:55on offense as well. But I mean that the bills
- 18:00defense is not. what it's been these past few
- 18:03years at all. And, but neither is the Bengals
- 18:07defense like ever. So I mean, yeah, I mean, Bengals
- 18:14didn't look great. I'll say I watched some highlights
- 18:17when I got home, but they didn't look great.
- 18:20I think they had a lot of help on, you know,
- 18:23defense. They went two and five in the red zone,
- 18:26but four field goals, two from 50. 50 plus so
- 18:32they can put up. They can put up points. They
- 18:34could get points on the board for you. So I do.
- 18:37I do like the over at 46 and a half. So Chris.
- 18:41Sweet. I stand alone. Bangle sex under 46 and
- 18:46a half. I think to make Orion's is going to spend
- 18:51all week just laying into this defense has to
- 18:54be one of the worst performances they've put
- 18:56up since he took over his head coach. I think
- 18:59they come up there on fire. I think they get
- 19:01after burrow. Um, bingles defense did not play
- 19:04great last week, but I mean, four turnovers,
- 19:08one return for a touchdown. I think that doesn't
- 19:11do great for the under, but four turnovers. That's
- 19:13damn good for a bingles defense that has been
- 19:15dog shit for years. Uh, I, and I mean, CJ Stroud,
- 19:20like he did play very well last week. game was
- 19:24on the line. He fumbled at his own like 20 with
- 19:27the chance to take the lead with like 30 seconds
- 19:30left. So he definitely has a little whoopsie
- 19:33daisy in him, and I think the Bengals can capitalize
- 19:35on that. I just think we get a much better effort
- 19:38out of Houston's defense. I think this will be
- 19:40a sweat. I think it may be like a 24 -21 type
- 19:44game, but yeah, I'm taking the under. I think
- 19:46we should get a much better defensive effort.
- 19:49There we go. Okay, there it is. All righty moving
- 19:54on next game the Steelers at the New England
- 19:58Patriots The Patriots are favored by four and
- 20:01a half points. The over -under is forty one and
- 20:04a half the Pats Not looking good if we're taking
- 20:10into account their game against the Seahawks
- 20:12Drake May Looks like shit Let's call a spade
- 20:17a spade and honestly the Steelers mean, I guess
- 20:23the Steelers like they they've been What they
- 20:27are for the past like six years like they're
- 20:30not they're not really gonna Wow anyone on offense
- 20:33But they're gonna do enough to kind of get the
- 20:37job done like 50 % of the time You know go one
- 20:41above 500 or go at 500 And so it kind of felt
- 20:46like that win needed to be a little bit bigger
- 20:49here Chris, I'll throw it to you first. What
- 20:53do you think about this game? I'm taking another
- 20:55under I got at 42 and a half. You kind of said
- 21:00it. The Steelers are what they have been for
- 21:03ages. They rely on defense and then just do just
- 21:07enough on offense to get by. I think they should
- 21:11get after Drake May New England's offensive line
- 21:15is just dog shit. Will Camp is terrible. I think
- 21:19he's. Drake Maze can be run for his life all
- 21:22night or all day, it's not night. Pittsburgh
- 21:25had four sacks, I believe. Where are my notes?
- 21:28Yeah, four sacks last week. I think, yeah, it
- 21:32could be a lot more this week. Neither offense
- 21:34has the ability to hit an explosive play, especially
- 21:36with AJ Brown on IR now. And Trevon Henderson
- 21:39is still banged up. I believe he's questionable
- 21:41for this game. I think this game's going to suck.
- 21:46Under 42 and a half. Will, what do you got? I
- 21:50have the same exact thing. Figured. I just saw
- 21:54it at under 41 and a half. I'm going to see if
- 21:56I can find it at 42. It's 42 and a half right
- 21:59now. I just checked on Fandl. It's 42 and a half.
- 22:03I got mine from Schmit Schmit Schmit Schmive.
- 22:07That's where he adds. But anyway. But I did.
- 22:14You should always have money in multiple books
- 22:17so you can compare lines and make the best decision
- 22:21for for your specific bet. Anyway, but yeah,
- 22:26I don't I think the Steelers like the Steelers
- 22:30are going to be the Steelers and with AJ Brown
- 22:34gone and Henderson probably not going to play
- 22:37like it doesn't look good. It feels like this
- 22:43is going to be a very Run heavy sort of game.
- 22:47It's not gonna be fun under 41 42 and a half,
- 22:51whatever it is. That's uh, that's really all
- 22:54I got Sean Yeah, 42 and under 42 and a half I
- 22:59mean this the Steelers team is just built for
- 23:02unders and They have been for the past few years
- 23:06Have written down AJ Brown out On IR Trayvon
- 23:11Henderson still dealing with injuries and Aaron
- 23:14Rodgers Only completed like 60 % of his passes
- 23:17last week. He went 0 for 6 on deep balls But
- 23:23just 20 plus yards downfield 0 for 6 terrible
- 23:27and Drake may not lighten it up either. So I'm
- 23:33taking the under because I trust these defenses
- 23:36more than I trust either team to make offensive
- 23:40plays. Hell yeah. I mean, let's just, I mean,
- 23:46like, let's just call it how it is. Like these
- 23:50teams aren't built for, you know, these teams
- 23:54are built for rock fights. They're not built.
- 23:57They're not built for shootouts. This feels very
- 24:00much like a first to 20, maybe even 17 wins this
- 24:03game. This game. Feels like it could end in a
- 24:10tie Honestly, I don't know. I wouldn't know who
- 24:15what what side to bet Four and a half. I don't
- 24:19know why the the Pats are getting that many points.
- 24:22I got to be quite honest here It's like yeah,
- 24:25like the Pats like actually played like a really
- 24:28good team last week and the Steelers didn't but
- 24:31but the Steelers also like I Mean they only won
- 24:35by seven Kind of they were kind of like barely
- 24:40winning by that much towards like kind of like
- 24:43the whole game When I was keeping up with the
- 24:45score, but I don't know There's like the patch
- 24:50should get less due to circumstances like injuries
- 24:52but Who's to say anyway moving on afternoon game
- 24:58game of the week the Washington Manders at the
- 25:03Cowboys Cowboys favored by three and a half points
- 25:07Over under 50 and a half the Cowboys lost outright
- 25:12to the to the New York football Giants I Think
- 25:18the Giants might actually good. I think it's
- 25:20it's quite possible that the Giants are actually
- 25:23a good football team But I'm not betting on the
- 25:28Giants game this week, so I'm not I'm not even
- 25:31thinking about it but But yeah, so cowboys. I
- 25:39mean. Wait, who the cowboy they play the Giants?
- 25:44I just literally just said that. Jesus Christ,
- 25:47well, it's been a long day. So. It feels like.
- 25:54For me. Cowboys are going to get off the Schneid.
- 25:58They're going to beat up the Manders who should
- 26:00have not covered against the Eagles. That's my
- 26:06own opinion, but also I got I got to the line
- 26:08early so Like I think you guys got it at like
- 26:11six. I got equals minus four and a half Anyway,
- 26:16also I didn't I didn't see anything from that
- 26:18game So I don't really don't know how to judge
- 26:20that game. Anyway, I'm going Cowboys minus three
- 26:23and a half I think in this divisional matchup.
- 26:26I think they they beat up on the Manders And
- 26:30yeah, I think they light them up honestly That's
- 26:34all I got Sean Yeah, sorry I had I I did some
- 26:43digging into this and First off did you know
- 26:48that like the NFL schedule makers are pretty
- 26:51much playing the NFC East schedule like in reverse
- 26:55What does that mean? So in week 17 the Cowboys
- 27:03played the Giants. They played them in week one.
- 27:08In week 17 of last year. Yes of last year. Okay.
- 27:12They played the Giants in week 17. And then again
- 27:16in week one. And the Manders played the Eagles
- 27:19in week 17. And then in week one. And now the
- 27:24Eagles are that now the Cowboys are playing the
- 27:27Manders in week two. And then they played in
- 27:30week seven week 16. That's funny. It's not super
- 27:36important, but I thought it was noteworthy. But
- 27:39I did notice something in all four of those games
- 27:42that they all went over. So it got me thinking
- 27:47since 2020, because that's kind of like the turning
- 27:52point of how we like judge things nowadays. How
- 27:56many NFC East matchups have gone over? Well,
- 28:01Thanks to our friends at the trend center, I
- 28:03can look that up and I can make a trend by myself.
- 28:07And that's exactly what I did. Um, and it's not
- 28:12too bad. 76 games, 50%, 56 % win rate, 42, 32
- 28:19and two all time nine and one in the last 10
- 28:24seven game win streak. So I think just based
- 28:28on my own curiosity. I'm going to take over 50
- 28:32and a half. And I don't really hate it because
- 28:36I mean, both defenses look shaky, but both office
- 28:40offenses are capable enough to hit this number.
- 28:46So I'm going over 50 and a half. That's a damn
- 28:49sign. If I've seen one. Yeah. Chris, what do
- 28:53you got? I'm going to take a stab again at the
- 28:57Manders plus three and a half. I flipped from
- 29:00my show pick. Which was the Eagles I flipped
- 29:02a day of to the manders that came in clutch commander's
- 29:07defense Pretty fucking good Week one, I mean
- 29:13Eagles aside from a few big plays I think they
- 29:15had a big play to Devontae Smith that Saquon
- 29:18had a big run other than that cannot really do
- 29:22anything And Dallas's defense was dogshit last
- 29:27year they might be worse New York was getting
- 29:32first downs at will against them. Like they touched
- 29:35Dallas touched ball twice in the second half.
- 29:38That's insane. Um, commanders had a really good,
- 29:42um, success running the football against Philly
- 29:45and Philly's got pretty decent run defense. I
- 29:48think if they just keep that same game plan,
- 29:50they should be able to take it to Dallas. Um,
- 29:54I don't know. I just thought I got a feeling
- 29:56about this. I mean, once it gets in the red zone,
- 29:59I don't know. It's kind of a crap shoot. But
- 30:01first time play caller. So hopefully he'll kind
- 30:03of he learned his lesson week one. But yeah,
- 30:06I'm gonna take managers plus three and a half.
- 30:08But I will also be doing a little Utah give me
- 30:10two double dip. I will be taking that over as
- 30:13well because that was phenomenal stats from Sean
- 30:16there. What was the number on that? 15 and a
- 30:19half 15. Oh, yeah. On my card. Let's go. All
- 30:27right. Okay, well there it is next game Sunday
- 30:32night football the Colts at the Chiefs Chiefs
- 30:36favored by six and a half The over -under is
- 30:40forty six and a half Monday night football the
- 30:46Chiefs Took a shit What did I say? No, you meant
- 30:52no your Monday night as in last night Yeah, I
- 30:56thought you were talking about this game. No,
- 30:59this is Sunday, Monday. I understand, but I understand
- 31:02now. Yesterday, Monday night football, the Chiefs
- 31:09took a massive dump all over the Denver Broncos.
- 31:15They did not look good at all. They could not
- 31:17get anything going. Kenneth Walker looked amazing.
- 31:22It looks like he just won a Super Bowl because
- 31:26he did. And it I don't want to say the chiefs
- 31:31are back but like It felt like the chiefs could
- 31:35really just do whatever they wanted which Would
- 31:39be them being back And I don't like that Just
- 31:45me personally But from a gambling point of view
- 31:49Could uh could use that could use that I want
- 31:54to go last on this one But Chris, what do you
- 31:59think about this game? I mean, you said it perfectly.
- 32:03Kansas City could do no wrong. Apparently, signing
- 32:09the Super Bowl MVP in free agency really fucking
- 32:11helps. He picked up right where he left off.
- 32:15I mean, my home struggled out of the gate a little
- 32:17bit, kind of hit his stride later. They looked
- 32:20perfect. Their defense was amazing. A flip side,
- 32:24Indy. Just got ran over by Baltimore. I mean,
- 32:28I know Baltimore is good team, but I mean, they
- 32:29were never really in that game. So you got to
- 32:33think it's can't you put your money on Kansas
- 32:35City six and a half and you just don't even think
- 32:38about it. But winning the NFL isn't really ever
- 32:42that easy, especially on prime time. Indy's got
- 32:46nothing to lose. I'm going to take him plus six
- 32:48and a half here. It just it's not. It's never
- 32:53that easy. Very rarely that easy, I should say.
- 32:59Yeah. People forget, maybe they don't forget,
- 33:01but Indy did take the Chiefs to overtime in Arrowhead
- 33:05last year. And this was kind of in the midst
- 33:06of their downward spiral. So I like him to cover
- 33:12six and a half. Also got a little tidbit from
- 33:15our friends at the Trends Center. It's called,
- 33:18it has a like, I think 10. Uh, parameter, so
- 33:22I'm not going to read them all, but it's called
- 33:23early dogs. The record is 81, 43 and seven over
- 33:27the last seven years. So, um, I'm going to take
- 33:31the Colts plus six and a half. It's kind of a
- 33:33hold your nose and pray kind of pick, but, um,
- 33:35I'm rocking with them. Uh, Sean, what do you
- 33:38think? Um, I'm going to go under 47 and a half
- 33:43is more than a prime time underplay. I play this
- 33:46under at noon. I played at 3 p .m. I played at
- 33:49Christmas Day, bottom of the ocean, on the moon,
- 33:53whenever, whenever, wherever. I got some stats
- 33:58to back it up. The under is 30 and 10 in my home's
- 34:04last 40 home starts. Damn, did not know that,
- 34:09that's pretty crazy. Chiefs are also 5 and 0
- 34:13to the under the week after a divisional game
- 34:15in the last two seasons. Daniel Jones. is 18
- 34:20and 18, seven and one on the under when he plays
- 34:24on grass in his career. Do just doesn't burn,
- 34:29I guess. So for Jones doesn't burn. If we're
- 34:35keeping score at home, doesn't play well at night,
- 34:40doesn't score a lot of points on grass. That's
- 34:45not great for the boy. Colts Chief's games are
- 34:52nine and two to the under over the last 20 seasons.
- 34:57And finally, let's not forget Danny Dimes is
- 35:01afraid of the dark, making him bad, which means
- 35:06low score. Did you forget he was afraid of the
- 35:11dark Chris? I'm going to double that. I'm going
- 35:15to double that. You did just, you did just say
- 35:18he doesn't play well at night. He doesn't, but
- 35:22I'm still rocking with the calls, but I might
- 35:25double that with that under. We'll see how Sunday
- 35:26goes. Okay. All right. Six and a half is a lot
- 35:30of points. We don't get Daniel Jones at night
- 35:33like we used to. So we do not. So I just want
- 35:37to make sure people are aware. that he is afraid
- 35:40of the dark. People have to know. Thank you.
- 35:48Thank you, Chris. I'm still taking the Colts
- 35:50because I just got gut feeling, but I if Sunday
- 35:52either goes really well or really poorly, I'm
- 35:55going to take the under. OK. All right. So my
- 35:59pick for this Colts Chiefs game. The the Colts.
- 36:05I understand the Colts pick. I also understand
- 36:08if if someone picks the Chiefs. But you're right,
- 36:11Chris, it's never that easy. Six and a half is
- 36:14a lot of points. However, I'm going to side with
- 36:17Sean. I'm going to go with under 46 and a half.
- 36:21And I love this pick. I love it so much that
- 36:25it is my double unit sure fire guaranteed not
- 36:28to lose pick of the week. Not only is it a prime
- 36:31time under, but I actually have a stat written
- 36:34down that Sean actually didn't say. Cheaps home
- 36:39favorite unders are 116 58 and 2 8 and 2 in the
- 36:46last 10 Give me that under Twice because I'm
- 36:52putting two units on it, and it's winning. I'm
- 36:54guaranteeing that it's not gonna lose And that's
- 36:58that's really all I got for that one, but two
- 37:01units on it just to feel something I need a rush.
- 37:09I don't get anything day to day life. It's already
- 37:13moved to 46. I'm doing it. So this is blanket
- 37:21chief's home favorite unders. And the last 200
- 37:27games or something. Yeah. I'm doing it. It's
- 37:31200. Well, you know, one. 116 plus 58 plus two.
- 37:40So it's 116 plus 60, which would be 186. I thought
- 37:44you're saying it hit 200 times. No, no, it's.
- 37:48Yeah, no, I got you. I got you. I got you. Of
- 37:50the amount of games under 46 and a half. Yeah.
- 37:54OK. And that brings us to our surefire picks.
- 37:58Chris, what is your double unit surefire guaranteed
- 38:02not to lose pick of the week? Well, I'm happy
- 38:06you asked. Let's try to go 2 -0 with these things.
- 38:09I went with an over last week. I'm going with
- 38:12an under this week, and it's one we already talked
- 38:14about. Steelers pats under 42 and a half for
- 38:18every reason I said a few minutes ago, plus this
- 38:22great nugget from the Trends Center. Since 2013,
- 38:26Steelers rode unders between weeks 1 and 11 with
- 38:29a total less than 51, or 41, 12, and 2. This
- 38:35game's gonna suck. It's gonna be a rock fight.
- 38:38This is a bet the under don't even Don't watch
- 38:40this game. Don't even keep up with it until the
- 38:42final score because it's gonna suck Steelers
- 38:45pats 142 and a half the double unit guaranteed
- 38:49not to lose play of the week. Let's go to a no
- 38:52Sean what you got Well, my lines have moved and
- 38:59one of y 'all took It's me. Don't say who after
- 39:08I gave it all this dance. I feel so bad for giving
- 39:18out that Titan surefire pic. That was so stupid.
- 39:23So stupid. But we're doing it again. Titan's
- 39:26Moneyline. There actually is a lot of systems
- 39:35like no you don't the Titans don't do it I'm
- 39:41I was more of a warning than anything. Like I'm
- 39:44not Telling y 'all to do that shit. Not again
- 39:48We can under so we can all have unders and I'm
- 39:58not gonna force it the no fun parlay how's your
- 40:07what about your Saints Ravens pick I didn't have
- 40:10one I just thought it stuck out to me fuck it
- 40:19we'll have one in noon we'll have one at three
- 40:22o 'clock and we'll have one in prime time Seattle
- 40:25Seahawks Carolina or Arizona Cardinals over 41
- 40:29and a half It's from Trends Center. Seahawks
- 40:35overs after unders is 10 and 1. It's not really
- 40:40much to go on, but I don't hate it just because
- 40:44Cardinals kind of looked like world beaters against
- 40:48the Chargers. They beat the shit out of them.
- 40:52And we know that the Seahawks can put numbers
- 40:54on the scoreboard. So 41 isn't that crazy in
- 40:59this game. I know it's a divisional game. And
- 41:02but weird shit happens at like 530 all the fucking
- 41:07time. So let's go two unders and then over. Let's
- 41:14do it. There it is. And this one will definitely
- 41:18hit this week. But all right. Okay. Well, we
- 41:24got some extra plays. I have some extra plays
- 41:27at least. I got three of them. Mean, I guess
- 41:31I'll go first so out of my three extra plays
- 41:34first one. I got bucks minus eight and a half
- 41:37Yes, it's a big number the Browns look they I
- 41:43don't know if they will look worse than the Titans,
- 41:45but like They look terrible they look absolutely
- 41:51Awful I don't know if Baker has already played
- 41:56the Browns since leaving the Browns Baker revenge
- 42:00a game maybe Because I mean the only things I
- 42:03have written down for this game are Baker revenge
- 42:06Browns look like ass so Let's go. There's also
- 42:10I feel like there's some trends on it. I saw
- 42:12some when I was scrolling earlier today next
- 42:15one I got Panthers minus two and a half Panthers
- 42:19don't look too bad honestly like the other defense
- 42:23give up like over 50 points, and that's Really
- 42:26bad actually, but they put up a lot So hey, they
- 42:30can they can score, you know, not maybe not at
- 42:33will. But this also falls under the fade the
- 42:35Falcons trend that I that I gave out last week
- 42:39with the Steelers pick Panthers minus two and
- 42:42a half divisional matchup small number. I like
- 42:46the number. I like the number. I think the Panthers
- 42:49can can win this game maybe by like four. Who
- 42:52knows? especially with the clown show they got
- 42:56going on in Atlanta, so Panthers minus two and
- 43:00a half and then the next game Saints Ravens over
- 43:0446 and a half It feels like the Ravens could
- 43:08score at will maybe the Colts were just like
- 43:11unprepared But however, the Saints can also score
- 43:16maybe not at will But they were able to capitalize
- 43:20against the Sleeping Lions team Didn't win But
- 43:25made it a game and cashed. The over from last
- 43:29week over 46 and a half. Let's run it. Chris.
- 43:35Actually, Sean, you give me your picks your extra
- 43:37place. OK, I do want to say Baker Mayfield has
- 43:40played the Browns before. It was on 911 in 2022
- 43:47when he was with the Carolina Panthers. And they
- 43:50lost. I was gonna say I didn't suck that game.
- 43:53Yeah, he wasn't great. So this is he came in
- 43:56like late in the season for the Panthers No,
- 44:00Sam. Donald came in late or I don't know if it
- 44:02was that late, but he came in for him But yeah,
- 44:06so it's Baker mega revenge revenge for that loss
- 44:09and revenge squared. Yeah Yeah now now he has
- 44:14like a decent team Yeah, and the Browns are dog
- 44:20water he smells blood in the water yeah There
- 44:24we go. There we go. I also have the Bucs minus
- 44:28eight and a half, not for those reasons, but
- 44:31you won't get any more, many more chances this
- 44:34season to fade the Browns until they benched
- 44:37a Sean. So if I, it's coming. Don't worry. Like
- 44:44it'll be, it'll be soon, but you got to get it
- 44:46while it's hot. Although the Bucs have not covered
- 44:51a game. in 10 straight games dating back to last
- 44:55season. The Bucks are 9 -0 against the spread
- 44:59in week two over the last 10 seasons, covering
- 45:02by more than nine points. And they are also 16
- 45:06-3 in the last 20 seasons. Deshaun has also faced
- 45:1216 opponents, averaging 27 points per game in
- 45:15his career as a starter. He is 3 -13 straight
- 45:19up. In those games losing by eight or more in
- 45:26a row Dating back to his loss to the Chiefs in
- 45:30the 2020 playoffs So, yeah, there's that I've
- 45:37got Eagles Titans over thirty nine and a half
- 45:39Eagles are probably gonna do this themselves
- 45:41This is just gonna be a total ass whooping eight
- 45:45I I legit think the Eagles could put up like
- 45:4870 on the Titans If Siriana gets in like a fuck
- 45:53you mood. Yeah, I can see it. Yeah I've also
- 45:58got the Jags plus two and a half. I know they
- 46:01played the Browns last week, but Jags are pretty
- 46:05good Denver little shaky little shaky so And
- 46:12then that's it I got three so far might have
- 46:17more we'll see I was very busy today, so I didn't
- 46:21have my usual card. But Chris, what are your
- 46:24extra plays? Well, we all agree on the bucks,
- 46:26so what could go wrong? Minus eight and a half.
- 46:29They need, I mean, pretty much for everything
- 46:31that Sean just said, they need to get right game
- 46:33in a bad way. They left a lot of points on the
- 46:36field, I should say, last week. Baker's going
- 46:41to be pissed off. The whole team's probably going
- 46:42to be pissed off. You won't get too many chances
- 46:46too many more chances to fade to Sean is the
- 46:48starting quarterback. You probably will get too
- 46:49many more chances to Fade the Browns in single
- 46:53digits So get it while you can Bucks minus eight
- 46:58and a half will agree Saints Ravens over 46 and
- 47:02a half Ravens very good offense Saints very Hit
- 47:07or miss offense, but when it hits boy, it gets
- 47:09rolling We saw that Jekyll and Hyde offense from
- 47:15them in the first game. So yeah, honestly, if
- 47:21this one hits, it might be just blind Saints
- 47:23overs until it fails me. There's also like four
- 47:26trends for this on trend center and three of
- 47:28them are on pretty decent winning streaks. Last
- 47:32one to have Packers minus three and a half against
- 47:34the Jets. Are the Jets? that good or the Titans
- 47:39just super mega ass. That's the question we will
- 47:42find out on Sunday. Packers got me pissed off
- 47:45from pissing down their legs in Minnesota. I
- 47:48think they'll take it down on a Jess team. It's
- 47:50really not that good. Packers minus three and
- 47:52a half against the Jets in the get right spot.
- 47:54And then I have one I wanted to talk about because
- 47:57it's a stinky one, but it's a lot of points.
- 48:01Dolphins plus 13 and a half against the 49ers
- 48:04who are coming back from Australia. From a very
- 48:07long trip in Australia, the Rams were there and
- 48:09back. So I don't know if like the jet lag is
- 48:12as bad for them. The Niners were there for like
- 48:14a week. Yeah, I was I was thinking about this
- 48:18match up earlier today when I was looking at
- 48:20my fantasy lineup, like who to play. And do like
- 48:27I've heard that like. Unless you're like absolutely
- 48:31dialed. Sometimes it could take like a month.
- 48:36From like a trip to Australia to like get fully
- 48:39back to where you were I Think it's I think I've
- 48:45heard that it's easier when you when you go there
- 48:47from the US that like that like week is like
- 48:52enough time to get acclimated but like going
- 48:55back is Is the tough one? Man I was man That's
- 49:08tough that's man, I wish I had any more insight
- 49:12on that but like that's that's really all I got
- 49:16But like with with advances in modern technology
- 49:20and with these athletes that have an unlimited
- 49:23amount of money They can absolutely lock in to
- 49:28like You know, it was okay. So if they if they
- 49:33had the game Friday Australia time in the morning,
- 49:40but it was Thursday here Then they came back
- 49:44They probably got here Saturday, Australia time
- 49:48but Friday our time like late in the day So they've
- 49:54had more they at that point. They would have
- 49:56had more than a week But is that a time maybe
- 50:02we need to look look into like more into the
- 50:06science of this, to properly get the information
- 50:12we need to bet on this game. I was in between
- 50:17that and the first half line, which is seven
- 50:19and a half. I was like, ah, maybe I come out
- 50:22a little sleepy first half, especially against
- 50:25like a team, you should say you should kind of
- 50:28dominate. So maybe they're not really super dialed
- 50:32in for the first half. And then they kind of
- 50:33get rolling the second half, but also maybe dolphin
- 50:35they're up big dolphins get back to our cover.
- 50:37I don't know. That's just a big number. That
- 50:41might be one, that might be one where you have
- 50:44to maybe follow the, follow the Niners on, on
- 50:48Twitter and, and try to try to get some, some
- 50:51pulses on some beat writers. Like, Hey, are they
- 50:54a bit sleepy? You know, like, You might have
- 50:58to do a little bit more research into that one.
- 51:00You never know with that substation out there.
- 51:02I mean, someone could just, I mean, not saying
- 51:04I want it to happen, but an injury could happen
- 51:07at any given second with this team. So definitely
- 51:11follow the Twitter, but as of right now, if it
- 51:14gets, I don't think it will. Sorry, you're good.
- 51:19If it gets to 14 and a half, I'm definitely taking,
- 51:23but, um, at 13 and a half, we'll see. that's
- 51:27a tough one just because like i don't know like
- 51:31they lost to the raiders and the raiders i think
- 51:34kirk threw like two picks and they lost by like
- 51:3813 13 to 14 right uh i think four i think it
- 51:43was 30 i think magic more than that 27 13 that
- 51:47was at 37 it was handed they lost oh 27 oh yeah
- 51:53they lost handedly yes I mean, that's two possessions,
- 51:57but two, that's three possessions. That's 14
- 52:00points to a Raiders team that is bad. Yeah. They
- 52:05might not be, I mean, they're definitely not
- 52:07good and the Niners are much, much better than
- 52:09them, but they might not be that bad. The Dolphins?
- 52:13No, no, no, the Raiders. Oh, okay. The Dolphins
- 52:16are ass. I don't know. I, in my professional
- 52:23opinion, I would just stay away. Yeah, I'd probably
- 52:29just stay I'm staying away see if I can I'm gonna
- 52:36we'll see how I'm feeling Sunday morning. I Mean,
- 52:39I have if you had it I'll say I'll say if you
- 52:43have a really good Saturday on college football
- 52:46Let it rip. Yeah. Yeah, I like it or a really
- 52:51bad one. I need to make it all back Why don't
- 52:55we stick to the the good the good idea like that?
- 53:01Let's try the good idea first Look all you need
- 53:08to do is just really lock in on Saturday The
- 53:13Dolphins yeah, you can bet the Dolphins I Will
- 53:18say the times when I have had it all riding on
- 53:21the Dolphins to win my money back or not times
- 53:23that My gambling was going well. Yeah. And you
- 53:29know what? Don't let this be one of those times.
- 53:32That's true. All right. We'll see. We'll see.
- 53:34I'm feeling Sunday morning. Yeah. Sunday morning,
- 53:38you wake up, you're obviously hungover just like
- 53:42we all are. And just like, I get it. I get it.
- 53:46No, it's not what I'm saying. It's just, you've
- 53:48had a good day watching college ball. That's
- 53:50all I'm saying. I'm doing it too. And. You know,
- 53:53you wake up and you're just like, fuck it. I'm
- 53:57just going to throw some money on the dolphins.
- 53:59I'm saying don't. But if you wake up and then
- 54:03you're like, Hey, I went up like four and a half
- 54:08units on Saturday. Why don't I just let one of
- 54:11those units go? Just throw some money on the
- 54:14dolphins. Why not? I like it. I think, I think
- 54:17that's, I think that's responsible. I think so.
- 54:20Yeah. I like it. Uh, I'm not going to lie. Just
- 54:23looking at this line reminded me of the dolphins
- 54:26Steelers. I think it was Monday night football
- 54:29or either Sunday or Monday night football game
- 54:30from when the dolphins were in their tank for
- 54:32two, a stage and they were just God awful. And
- 54:36the Steelers were rolling. Dolphins were 14 and
- 54:40a half point dogs in Pittsburgh. I had taken
- 54:42plus 14 and a half. They went up 14, nothing
- 54:44at halftime. They had lost 28, 14. I just saw
- 54:55that when I saw Dolphins 13, that's immediately
- 54:58what I thought of. So check the Twitter Sunday
- 55:02morning. We'll see how. Look, I'll say that in
- 55:05the NFL, you see double digits. You're like immediately.
- 55:09It's like a, it's like a shining light. Like
- 55:12it's like a, it's like an angel calling being
- 55:14like, Hey, we are double digit dogs in the NFL.
- 55:22You have to take it like that's it's almost what
- 55:25it sounds like but I mean biggest dog a week
- 55:29one one outright, so Yeah They're like handedly
- 55:34too. Yeah Sucks because I had the I'm in a survivor
- 55:40pool. Well, I was in a survivor pool And like
- 55:46I was looking at the Excel spreadsheet that the
- 55:48guy sent out in like It had to have been like
- 55:5265 % of the whole sheet was on the chargers.
- 55:57Yeah, I was just like, I was like, oh no. At
- 56:04least it wasn't just you. Yeah, it was me and
- 56:08then my dad. Just him and all the losers. Yeah,
- 56:15I'm one of the losers. Alright. Well, there's
- 56:21the card. Yeah, so week one. First of all, I
- 56:29had a great time gambling. I will say that I'm
- 56:33never going to complain about going green. I
- 56:37am however going to complain about the Tennessee
- 56:39Titans now. I was saying this during the game.
- 56:47But it's gotten to a point where I'm no longer
- 56:51mad. I'm just disappointed. I'm just confused.
- 56:58I'm just like, I'm more just like, why, why is
- 57:01this happening, man? Like, we've changed literally
- 57:07everything. And it's just the same shit over
- 57:12and over again. And like, I don't. And like,
- 57:17I don't have to like, Said at the beginning of
- 57:19the show. I'm really trying not to Overreact
- 57:22to week one, but it's really hard not to when
- 57:28you got beat every You got beat ten ways to Sunday
- 57:33there was There was like the offensive line could
- 57:39not block at all cam was running for his life
- 57:41And when someone was open cam wasn't throwing
- 57:44it to him It felt like we couldn't run the ball.
- 57:47We couldn't get any pressure defensively fucking
- 57:51Whatever his name flot Someone needs to like
- 57:56throw a rock at that guy like We need to do something
- 58:02about this guy because he is an absolute liability
- 58:06at the end of the game he laid some dude out
- 58:09and then got up like Hey, whatever you got to
- 58:13do to get yourself out of bed But you're a fucking
- 58:16disgrace. You don't belong in the NFL. The only
- 58:22reason you're paying, you're playing is because
- 58:24we're paying you. You're dog shit. And like,
- 58:29I'm also questioning, it's like, are we putting
- 58:32him in a situation to succeed? Are we dialing
- 58:38up like a good defensive scheme? Or are our players
- 58:43just ass? i don't know i don't know what to think
- 58:46anymore and i'm just i'm just frustrated i'm
- 58:51not angry i'm just confused and i'm frustrated
- 58:55and like oh and 17 is on the table like it's
- 59:03it is so much on the table there's there was
- 59:09literally nothing about sunday that gave me hope
- 59:13There was nothing about Sunday that was like,
- 59:15oh, that was that was good that that that wasn't
- 59:19there. Was he that that linebacker? Yeah, 16
- 59:27tackles. He he forced that fumble that the the
- 59:32rest did not call. Well, good for that guy. I
- 59:38mean, that's I mean, that's literally the only
- 59:41positive I have. I'm glad someone showed up I've
- 59:47said my piece Now I will I will offer the floor
- 59:52for someone else to say more things Well first
- 59:59off a Really good time at the game, even though
- 1:00:03it was a shit show. Oh, it's always a good time
- 1:00:06Yeah, it's a good time It's fun before Before
- 1:00:11the game's always great before you walk into
- 1:00:14misery. I felt like every time we were on defense,
- 1:00:22which was a lot, I was like, where the fuck is
- 1:00:26Simmons? Like every time I was out, I was like,
- 1:00:28where is he? Like, and then like, he was like,
- 1:00:32oh, just on the sideline. I'm like, why is he
- 1:00:35just not out there? Like, I feel like he was
- 1:00:40taking too many breaks. for like the situations
- 1:00:44we were in. It was very hot. It was very hot.
- 1:00:48But I mean, maybe not wears long ass sleeves.
- 1:00:52I don't know. Like, I mean, like he wears those
- 1:00:55long ass red sleeves like every game. It was
- 1:00:59also it was hot for the Jets, too. And they did
- 1:01:03whatever they wanted in the defensive front.
- 1:01:05So I don't buy that as an excuse. Like, yes,
- 1:01:09it was very hot. I would probably die in that
- 1:01:13scenario, but you're a very, very highly paid
- 1:01:17professional athlete. The team across from you
- 1:01:19who let's face it is like, I don't want to say
- 1:01:23worse because they whipped our ass, but like
- 1:01:26is like coming into this game we thought was
- 1:01:28just as bad. And we just got our asses kicked
- 1:01:32from bell to bell. I don't really want to hear
- 1:01:36an it's too hot excuse. It was hot for them too.
- 1:01:41I wasn't making an excuse. It was partially like
- 1:01:45a we went there. It was awful. And it was hot.
- 1:01:52But you're right. It was also hot for the jets.
- 1:01:57Yeah, it was hotter down there than it was up
- 1:02:01top. Yeah. I don't know, man. Like just Some
- 1:02:10of the like decisions they were making like especially
- 1:02:13in like the after the in the second half it's
- 1:02:16like we're dude we're down by like I Don't remember
- 1:02:21the score at that point. I think we were down
- 1:02:23by 13 It was just like guys. We don't really
- 1:02:27have a lot of time to like be doing this shit
- 1:02:30like you gotta like You can't just be running
- 1:02:34up the middle and then taking the entire like
- 1:02:39play clock To just get set up It's like you gotta
- 1:02:44you gotta just keep you gotta keep marching.
- 1:02:50I Don't know it's just I mean I talked to I was
- 1:02:54working with my Relief sales rep today and he
- 1:02:59went to the Titans game and that was his first
- 1:03:02NFL game ever And I was like, oh no Like he he's
- 1:03:10from Mississippi and he went to like Ole Miss
- 1:03:14and stuff and So he's not really like a big like
- 1:03:19NFL guy and I was just like I was working with
- 1:03:22them a couple weeks ago It was like do you have
- 1:03:25like an NFL team? He was like, I guess the Titans
- 1:03:27are my team now and I'm like Don't don't do this
- 1:03:31if you're in the I guess stage. Yeah, you'll
- 1:03:34you can you could change you'll know nothing
- 1:03:37but pain Like I warned him. I was like, you'll,
- 1:03:41you won't win anything. You won't feel anything,
- 1:03:45but it's, I mean, it's, it's bad, man. It's bad
- 1:03:53out here. And like, I just keep thinking, like,
- 1:03:58how did these teams get like, like, I know that
- 1:04:04you can look at the Panthers and just say like
- 1:04:07oh we traded up for Bryce Young to get like the
- 1:04:10number one pick and we're still like not that
- 1:04:15good but like your division is terrible so you
- 1:04:19have a chance at least winning your division
- 1:04:21but like with the Bears like you get Caleb Williams
- 1:04:26you get Ben Johnson and your whole season your
- 1:04:29whole franchise is turned around and I'm not
- 1:04:33trying to overreact in week one but like bears
- 1:04:35look damn good and they could legit be contenders
- 1:04:40if they wanted to but like the titans have just
- 1:04:45been so ass for like six years and it's just
- 1:04:50like winter things are just like not turning
- 1:04:54around things are not getting better they're
- 1:04:58i mean they're not and that's why i want to kind
- 1:05:00of say to Will's thing is like, don't overreact
- 1:05:03to week one. It's not just week one. We haven't
- 1:05:05won in week one since 2020. We have not been
- 1:05:09competitive since Vrabel was fired, even when
- 1:05:12Vrabel the last year, year and a half under Vrabel
- 1:05:15was bleak. It's just nothing like the faces change,
- 1:05:22the uniforms change, the stadium is going to
- 1:05:25change, but we just keep losing. And it doesn't
- 1:05:28feel like like what's going to have to happen.
- 1:05:33I just don't know. I don't know what it's going
- 1:05:36to be, because I mean, Borganzi, if we keep going
- 1:05:38on this trend, he'll be gone next year, probably
- 1:05:41solid the year after. I just. It's there's no
- 1:05:46hope and like you had a real chance to inspire
- 1:05:50hope and like even really, I mean, a win would
- 1:05:53have gone a hell of a long way, but to just get
- 1:05:56dominated like in every aspect of the game. It
- 1:06:01was just pathetic and just to hear players like
- 1:06:05in the media scrums acting like it's just a week
- 1:06:08one loss will get better and they could get better.
- 1:06:10I mean, there's 17 more games left, but I just.
- 1:06:16I don't see it getting better if they come out
- 1:06:19against Philly where they have all the bulletin
- 1:06:22board material a team could ever ask for. Nobody
- 1:06:25is saying a goddamn positive thing about this
- 1:06:28team. There wasn't one positive takeaway, other
- 1:06:31than that we're one week closer to this season
- 1:06:33being over. If they don't come, if they just
- 1:06:36roll over for the Eagles, four for the rest of
- 1:06:38the season, I do not care. This team doesn't
- 1:06:41have it. I thought just, Salah at least, I thought
- 1:06:44would bring out some sort of a killer instinct,
- 1:06:46just with his history as a D coordinator. They,
- 1:06:50I mean... All the money they... It's significantly
- 1:06:55worse. It was so, so bad. I mean, at least last
- 1:07:01year we would occasionally get a QB pressure.
- 1:07:05I mean, fuck me. Smith could smoke a full cigarette
- 1:07:10every drop back he had and still find someone
- 1:07:13wide fucking open. This team is an embarrassment.
- 1:07:17I mean, there is no silver lining. to any and
- 1:07:20Cam Ward, like I am not doubting him, but that
- 1:07:24was the first game where I was like, fuck, this
- 1:07:26guy might suck. Yeah, because it wasn't just
- 1:07:30like he couldn't hit. It was just piss poor decision
- 1:07:33making every play. And to wear that fucking T
- 1:07:37-shirt like after the posting. Oh, yeah. Yeah.
- 1:07:41Bro, you had your like this guy has not had too
- 1:07:45many great games, but there's at least been Every
- 1:07:49game he has played, I feel like there's been
- 1:07:51something where you'd be like, okay, but these
- 1:07:54few plays were pretty cool. So there's something
- 1:07:56there. This was the first game where there was
- 1:07:59fucking nothing. In fact, there was a lot of
- 1:08:01plays where I was like, he might not be very
- 1:08:04good. And you could say the O line is trash.
- 1:08:07It is, but he bailed out of pockets that were
- 1:08:10not collapsing. I just, if they roll over against
- 1:08:14Philly season, like just forfeit the rest of
- 1:08:18the season. Because if you don't come out fired
- 1:08:20up, I know Philly is a very good team, but they
- 1:08:23did not look great last week. So there's a chance
- 1:08:26you have to come out fired up. If you just roll
- 1:08:29over and die again, I don't know what else can
- 1:08:33inspire you. Like this is a lost season already
- 1:08:37because the fans have already given up. So like
- 1:08:42it's week one and we're already like, everybody's
- 1:08:45just like, I'm going to jump off the pedestrian
- 1:08:47bridge. like they're way back from this game
- 1:08:49like every single fan has is just like is given
- 1:08:54up and if the players give up too then i mean
- 1:08:58especially in week two and like the first few
- 1:09:01games are a gauntlet so this was very much a
- 1:09:03must win and i mean if they just get steamrolled
- 1:09:07by philly and just even just like i'm not even
- 1:09:10saying you have to cover just be competitive
- 1:09:13for a half and like show me something where like
- 1:09:17okay you give a shit because I didn't fucking
- 1:09:19see it last week so yeah show me show me at least
- 1:09:23like a sign of life yeah show me a pulse of something
- 1:09:28and we don't have to win we don't even have to
- 1:09:30cover but like just I need a better fucking performance
- 1:09:35than last week other than in the two -minute
- 1:09:39drill that man knows like that That meant absolutely
- 1:09:43fucking nothing. We were outside the stadium.
- 1:09:46I would have left long before. I was initially
- 1:09:51supposed to go. I had to dip for some obelose.
- 1:09:54Thank God I didn't go. And a bigger thing, thank
- 1:09:56God Chris Johnson was not able to attend this
- 1:09:59football game because that would have just been
- 1:10:01a disgrace to him. And another thing, Tajay Spears,
- 1:10:07I want this motherfucker off the team. He sucks.
- 1:10:10He can't catch he's not fast. He can't run in
- 1:10:14between the tackles. What is he? What does he
- 1:10:17do? That's like all of his positives of being
- 1:10:20a player, too Yeah, that's all those are like
- 1:10:22if you can't run between the tackles as a running
- 1:10:24back You have to be get out of the backfield.
- 1:10:25He can't catch he can't run like he's short as
- 1:10:29shit So he can't run between the tackles. He
- 1:10:31can't do anything get this fucking guy off the
- 1:10:34team. Like I've had it with this charity case.
- 1:10:36It feels like with him, I'm done. I just know
- 1:10:39ACLs, right? No, he doesn't. And I don't think
- 1:10:42ACLs don't help you catch a check down on third
- 1:10:46and four when it's right in your fucking chest.
- 1:10:49Yeah, fucking sucks. This team is whatever. I'm
- 1:10:55done. I get it. I'm not this angry. I'm just
- 1:11:01like, It's kind of like you you you expect Disappointment
- 1:11:08so you're never you'll never be disappointed
- 1:11:10Like that's how I feel with the team But this
- 1:11:14one it was like I expected a little more. We're
- 1:11:18not playing the fucking Rams. Yeah If we're getting
- 1:11:22shit pumped by a good team, but you know what
- 1:11:25it happens But we're getting ran through by a
- 1:11:28team who's on the same level as us Yeah, and
- 1:11:32like apparently not but it honestly like if if
- 1:11:35we have lost in week one, but like the game ended
- 1:11:40like 20 to 3 or whatever. I would have been like,
- 1:11:45yeah You know We should have won but oh well
- 1:11:50and I wouldn't so much feel like Fucking awful,
- 1:11:56you know, does that make sense? Yeah, I get you.
- 1:12:00And then I said in our in the group chat and
- 1:12:03I really after the Sunday was over, I really
- 1:12:07looked back and was like, wow, that was really
- 1:12:09true. The second that game ended my Sunday turned
- 1:12:14around. I was depressed for three hours watching
- 1:12:19that game. The second that thing ended, it flipped
- 1:12:22to the end of Bill's Texans, which it felt like
- 1:12:24they were playing a different sport. That was
- 1:12:27electric to see. After that, I got to flip over,
- 1:12:30catch the overtime of Saints -Lyons. That was
- 1:12:32awesome. The afternoon slate pretty much rocked.
- 1:12:35The night game was meh, but it was still entertaining.
- 1:12:38The Giants were a fun football team to watch.
- 1:12:41It was really like the three hours or whatever
- 1:12:44it was I spent watching my favorite team. I was
- 1:12:46miserable. Every other aspect of the NFL week
- 1:12:51was awesome, but I'm done. All right. There it
- 1:12:56is. We're done complaining. We're probably going
- 1:13:00to lose to the Eagles, but that's okay. We expect
