  Get ready for the political sensation with super host and

  news breaker Preston Olson. Welcome to Preston Super Show.
• 0:10
  Thank you for joining me. This is the 62nd installment of
• 0:16
  the Super News and we are stepping a day.
• 0:20
  Let's look at the Saturday morning through Saturday night
• 0:25
  NFL games. The Big 10 game slate for the
• 0:30
  NFLI have you covered here with my preview and predictions for
• 0:37
  the NFL action this Saturday, which will wrap up the end of
• 0:43
  pre season. How about that?
• 0:46
  UFC is in Shanghai. I will have my recap on that
• 0:52
  tomorrow and WWE Smackdown was amazing.
• 0:59
  I will do my recap of that tomorrow as well.
• 1:04
  This podcast, we are focused on NFL Saturday.
• 1:11
  Now let's make it a happy Saturday.
• 1:14
  Let's start with the first game, 11:00 AM central time on ESPN
• 1:20
  Unlimited. The Baltimore Ravens take on the
• 1:23
  Washington Commanders. The Commanders are at home.
• 1:28
  The total is set at 35 1/2. Baltimore is the favorite -3 on
• 1:35
  the spread and the money line. Underdog here.
• 1:40
  The Washington Commanders plus 140 will not have much value as
• 1:46
  they have gotten rid of their premier running back, Dejon
• 1:50
  Robinson. In this game.
• 1:53
  I believe the Baltimore Ravens go on cruise control.
• 1:58
  They're going to have Cooper Rush throwing the ball.
• 2:01
  He's going to have a good team. Then you have a Marriott of
• 2:06
  running backs. But Dernis Johnson has proven if
• 2:13
  you give him a little bit of protection, you draw up some
• 2:19
  good run blocking and the Baltimore Ravens have a good
• 2:22
  team and a great chance to score some points running the ball.
• 2:28
  Besides Lamar Jackson for this upcoming season, I like the
• 2:35
  Baltimore Ravens to win that comfortably -165 on the money
• 2:41
  line is a great number. Next up, you know I want to look
• 2:48
  at this game here. 2 Snoozers. The Colts and the Bengals.
• 2:54
  Now give the Colts credit, even though they've lost, it's been
• 3:00
  competitive. And with the Bengals, it seems
• 3:04
  like they've let games also kind of slip away.
• 3:09
  They've kind of lost track of what they're doing.
• 3:13
  So you get the Colts who haven't won a preseason game, come
• 3:16
  close, haven't done it yet. I believe they get the win here.
• 3:21
  I do. I think they have enough.
• 3:25
  They're going to be using a bunch of different quarterbacks
• 3:29
  here. But most importantly, they've
• 3:31
  named Daniel Jones as their starter for Week 1.
• 3:35
  So something has to happen here in this game where he, like, so
• 3:39
  solidifies that. Then we have Ulysses Bentley,
• 3:44
  who's going to be rushing the ball for the Colts.
• 3:47
  He's done pretty well. Again, it's running by
• 3:50
  committee. On the other side's Taj Brooks,
• 3:54
  probably remember that name from last year, receiving the leading
• 4:00
  receiver for the Colts, Ashton Doolan, 4 catches, 72 yards and
• 4:06
  on the other side, Michael Tinsley, 6 catches, 88 yards and
• 4:10
  two touchdowns. I like the over 34 1/2.
• 4:18
  I do believe the Colts win plus 2 1/2 is a good spot on the
• 4:23
  spread and there is value with the Colts money line at plus
• 4:31
  1:30. But I like to keep it cool with
• 4:34
  the over 34 1/2 after what we've been seeing in the preseason.
• 4:40
  You have Jake Browning, quarterback for the Bengals, and
• 4:47
  he's been pretty good as a backup.
• 4:50
  There's a few teams that could probably use his services as a
• 4:55
  starter. Next game, we have the Los
• 5:00
  Angeles Rams up against the Cleveland Browns.
• 5:05
  The Rams are two and O in the preseason.
• 5:07
  The Browns are two and O. Both teams are coming out
• 5:11
  putting on a show, but the Rams have a little bit more to offer,
• 5:16
  right? Stetson Bennett totaling it up
• 5:21
  five touchdowns over 500 yards passing in this preseason.
• 5:30
  What's going on here? You can look at this LA Rams
• 5:35
  team. They're taking advantage of the
• 5:39
  reserves now. They have a wonderful
• 5:43
  opportunity to take advantage of the Cleveland Browns secondary
• 5:48
  that's been pretty spotty. I think they do it in this game
• 5:55
  total at 36 1/2. Think it goes over Rams plus 7
• 6:01
  1/2 I believe they cover. That's my favorite bet in this
• 6:07
  game. Money line plus 320, 323 to 1
• 6:14
  underdogs for the Rams here. That's too big of underdogs.
• 6:23
  I'm going to have to say let it play out.
• 6:27
  But I like that. Plus 7 1/2.
• 6:29
  It's a really good number up front.
• 6:35
  Next game we get the Houston Texans up against the Detroit
• 6:40
  Lions. Total the 34 1/2 spread has the
• 6:46
  Lions favored right now. We'll see if that holds -1 1/2.
• 6:50
  Ever been too impressed with the Lions of pre season?
• 6:54
  They got one win, 2 losses. Remember they played in the Hall
• 6:57
  of Fame game. You got the Houston Texans 1 and
• 7:01
  1. You know you have the Lions that
• 7:06
  are going to get an opportunity here to do a little bit more.
• 7:08
  I think if the Lions win that, I think you get, you know, an over
• 7:15
  34 1/2 and the Texans have to figure out how they want to
• 7:24
  approach this game with Slovis. We'll see what they're able to
• 7:29
  do with them. But, you know, last week they
• 7:33
  shut down the Panthers, but you wanted more points if you were a
• 7:39
  Texans fan. So we'll see this week.
• 7:42
  If they play cautious, do they kind of let a little bit more go
• 7:48
  to the wind? We'll see.
• 7:50
  I think the Lions win that game, though.
• 7:54
  Love the total going over. Then we get the Denver Broncos
• 8:00
  up against the New Orleans Saints.
• 8:04
  Now the Broncos are two and, oh, in the preseason, they look
• 8:07
  good. The New Orleans Saints haven't
• 8:10
  looked so good O 1:00 and 1:00. But they have a lot of talent,
• 8:14
  they're deep. They have a lot of guys trying
• 8:17
  to make the team. People want to see more of
• 8:21
  Spencer Radler. I've kind of seen enough of
• 8:24
  them. And you get Jared Stedham, you
• 8:28
  know what? He's been super impressive, like
• 8:30
  ultra impressive. Denver -190 favorites on the
• 8:34
  money line. Total set of 39 1/2 -3 1/2 on
• 8:39
  the spread here for the Broncos. Might be a little bit out of
• 8:44
  reach on the road pre season in the Superdome.
• 8:50
  Don't like the total but I do like the Broncos -190 I think
• 8:56
  you pay a price. I think if you play it live you
• 9:00
  pay a better price. Next up, Seattle Seahawks 1st,
• 9:07
  my favorite team in the world, the Green Bay Packers.
• 9:11
  And you know, the Seahawks kind of like the Colts, have the edge
• 9:17
  if they win, it's like we told you so.
• 9:22
  But I feel like the Packers pull it out, win it.
• 9:25
  They're at home. They want to give the fans
• 9:28
  something a little excitement cooled off.
• 9:34
  I think that helps them. I think this is the week after
• 9:42
  these teams practice together. There was some fights breaking
• 9:45
  out. You know what, I think you're
• 9:48
  going to see two teams go at it in a pre season game.
• 9:53
  I like the total 2GO over. It's at 37 1/2 Seahawks R + 140
• 10:00
  on the money line. There's a lot of value there, +3
• 10:06
  on the spread if you like the Seahawks to win plus three on
• 10:12
  the spread, and if you parlay that or tease that with
• 10:18
  something else that you like, that's on you.
• 10:23
  For me. Love the total, love to keep it
• 10:27
  moving. I think the Packers do win that
• 10:29
  game though. Think they pull it out a lot of
• 10:32
  reserves and that's a lot of the reason why.
• 10:36
  Next up, we got the Jacksonville Jaguars who are starting to get
• 10:42
  a little mojo. They're trying.
• 10:44
  Then you have the Miami Dolphins.
• 10:46
  Just a big play sheet, big old play call sheet right there for
• 10:50
  Mike Daniels. Now you have the total at 39
• 10:55
  1/2. Might be a little too high,
• 10:58
  might not. Jacksonville underdog plus 215.
• 11:05
  Two to one odds for Jacksonville to win this game and they're
• 11:08
  like going a couple blocks away. I don't know.
• 11:12
  I like the value there. I think Jacksonville can win
• 11:17
  this game. I'm going to pick Jacksonville
• 11:21
  to win, and I do like the money line.
• 11:25
  Jacksonville +6 You know, if you tease that with what we just
• 11:32
  talked about in the plus 3 Seahawks game against the
• 11:40
  Packers and you tease that and get 6 points, you might have you
• 11:45
  might have something there. Next up, we got the Buffalo
• 11:50
  Bills. First, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
• 11:54
  The Bills have not won in the preseason.
• 11:56
  The Buccaneers have won both games in the pre season.
• 11:59
  This matters for pre season batting only, guys trying to
• 12:05
  make teams. Mitchell Trubisky didn't play at
• 12:10
  the Bills quarterback position but they have been unimpressive.
• 12:14
  Lot like the Commanders unimpressive.
• 12:19
  I believe Tampa Bay wins. I think Tampa Bay doesn't have
• 12:22
  to do much. It's just about avoiding the
• 12:25
  mistakes, staying out of harm's way.
• 12:29
  Total at 36 1/2. I like it to go under.
• 12:34
  If there's a quick score, that's even better.
• 12:39
  Tampa Bay is the plus 2 1/2 underdog on the spread.
• 12:44
  Give it time. I think that will grow a little
• 12:49
  bit. I think people are a little bit
• 12:51
  bamboozled on Buffalo right now. Like Tampa Bay to win that they
• 12:55
  don't have to do much, just prevent Buffalo from getting
• 13:01
  momentum and they're done. They're cooked in pre season.
• 13:06
  Now we have the Los Angeles Chargers up against the San
• 13:11
  Francisco 49ers. You're going to Trey Lance,
• 13:16
  who's going to throw and run and try to make this squad work.
• 13:22
  The Chargers are really interesting.
• 13:24
  They are two and one, and I have some faith in them to win this
• 13:30
  game. Now the 49ers are struggling to
• 13:36
  really maintain any momentum on the offense.
• 13:42
  I think their last game, they got lucky.
• 13:46
  They end up beating the Raiders 22 to 19 this game.
• 13:51
  More like the game they played against Denver.
• 13:54
  I think they're in trouble in this game.
• 13:56
  I think the Chargers are coming to ball total at 35 1/2.
• 14:01
  Chargers are the -130 favorite on the road.
• 14:04
  It's not that far, but it is a road game. 49ers +2 on the
• 14:11
  spread. That's not enough.
• 14:14
  Just not going to be enough. The Chargers are coming to win
• 14:17
  that game. I like the total to go under.
• 14:24
  I like the charges to win that -130 - 135, Very playable.
• 14:33
  Let's talk about the last game here for Saturday.
• 14:37
  This is a 9:00 PM kick off Las Vegas Raiders up against the
• 14:43
  Arizona Cardinals. Total set of 37 1/2.
• 14:48
  The Raiders are the -2 1/2 favorites on the spread, but you
• 14:52
  could look here and see that Arizona is a + 110 underdog
• 15:01
  against Vegas. Who hasn't won a pre season
• 15:03
  game, Hasn't really done much of anything.
• 15:08
  They don't look great. This is Arizona's game to win.
• 15:13
  Arizona plus 110 money line, the best spot to be in in this game.
• 15:21
  They have Jacoby Brissett, who I'm a big fan of.
• 15:25
  He's rolling 3 touchdowns, 11 for 16 and 138 yards passing.
• 15:33
  On the other side, you got O'Connell, who hasn't thrown a
• 15:36
  touchdown, has thrown a pick. Gentry hasn't even got 50 yards
• 15:41
  rushing so it just goes without saying right now.
• 15:46
  The Raiders got to show me more. The Cardinals do too.
• 15:51
  But in this type of game, pre season, last game, Cardles at
• 15:55
  home, I think they have it in the bag.
• 15:59
  They really have to try to mess up to lose this game.
• 16:04
  Ladies and gentlemen, just like the hands of time, I'm turning
• 16:09
  it over to you. Good night and God bless.
