Latest / Nate's Daily Wager / Nate's NFL Week 6 Football Wager and Cousin Vinny's Lock of the Week 1013
Transcript
- 0:06Welcome to Nate's daily wager. I ain't picking winners, but I
- 0:10am making wagers. Time to put my money where my
- 0:13mouth is. This is Nate's daily wager for
- 0:20Sunday, October 13th and I guess you can't have much of A
- 0:24shootout when only one team shows up with a gun.
- 0:28And last night or yesterday afternoon Oklahoma showed up
- 0:32with the like a pocket knife. So that didn't really turn into
- 0:36a shootout and my hope for an over disappeared.
- 0:40So again, taking the L, that seems to be the trend.
- 0:44As I was saying yesterday, not even sucking yet.
- 0:47Hopefully I can get back to sucking.
- 0:48So today we got some football and the good thing is Cousin
- 0:52Vinny's been killing it. He'll have his week six pick for
- 0:55you a little later. Gaffer's been doing well as
- 0:58well. He's coming up later.
- 1:00But right now we're talking about me and I'm getting back to
- 1:03the shootout. I think we're going to have a
- 1:04shootout today. I'm looking at this Cowboys,
- 1:07Lions that we have going on and to me just screams shootout,
- 1:13right? Like real shootout.
- 1:14You actually have two teams that can score points, two teams that
- 1:17aren't really good at keeping other teams from scoring points
- 1:21at least as well as they should. So looking at the total, it's
- 1:25currently sitting at 52 1/2 and I see this getting to 60.
- 1:30So we're taking the over. So we're going over 52 1/2 total
- 1:34points between the Cowboys and Lions in today's NFL football
- 1:39action. Is anything better than that?
- 1:40Found it. That's my pick and I'm sticking
- 1:42to it. And Gaffer, give him another
- 1:44winner. And same to you, Cousin Vinny.
- 1:48Give him winners. You, Cousin Vinny.
- 1:51Week. 6 coming at you coming in hot four in one picking winners
- 1:58about to be 5 in one so stick with me here and keep rolling in
- 2:02the Dell. So this week, you know, arguably
- 2:05the game of the week was supposed to be the Dallas
- 2:08Cowboys, Detroit Lions game. But actually, actually, if I had
- 2:13to pick one game to watch, it probably would be this
- 2:16Washington Commanders, Baltimore Ravens game, the Battle of
- 2:20Maryland. Last time these two teams
- 2:22played, it was 1997. Benny Testaverde was under
- 2:26Center for the Ravens, and Ray Lewis had gigantic shoulder
- 2:31pads. Got to pick the seal of victory.
- 2:35We're the Ravens, right? Fast forward a long time,
- 2:38Shoulder pads are a lot smaller. Ray Ray hasn't played in a long
- 2:41time. And these two match up, and
- 2:43these two match up with a very hot, upstart Washington team
- 2:48that has new life. New life after an old owner left
- 2:52and a new quarterback showed up. He's his kid for real.
- 2:56Probably, but I don't know. They're a pretty frisky team,
- 3:00putting up 30 burgers, one of the best offenses in the in the
- 3:04league. But this will be the first true
- 3:06test line opened up as the Commanders being an 8 1/2 point
- 3:11dog. Since then it's moved down to 6
- 3:141/2 points. What's this tell Cousin Vinny?
- 3:17This tells Cousin Vinny that the public loves the upstart, the
- 3:22frisky Commanders. But what does Cousin Vinny
- 3:26always say? Why zig when you can zag?
- 3:30Sure, everyone might be zigging, but zagging is where you find
- 3:35all the winners. So that being said, we're going
- 3:41to grab this line and 6 1/2 that's been beat down and we're
- 3:45going to believe in the Baltimore Ravens.
- 3:49They're they're rushing attacks. Lamar Jackson and MVPA veteran
- 3:54coach, they kind of, you know, bring the Commanders back down
- 3:58to earth. At some point, Jaden Daniels is
- 4:01going to look like a Rick, a rookie.
- 4:03And I suspect, suspect it happens this week against
- 4:07Harbaugh. So take the Ravens minus 6 1/2.
- 4:13We love that half point. Keep it under 7.
- 4:15Ravens win by a touchdown and you win the bag, baby.
- 4:19So take it to the bank and lock it up, closing Vinnie with your
- 4:24lock of the week. Don't forget to rate, review,
