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
- 0:25December 17th, 2023. A nice win for us.
- 0:29Last night I was a little worried, but once the points
- 0:34started coming, they didn't stop coming and that was nice.
- 0:39So over hit we get our wins. Let's see if we can put a couple
- 0:45of these wins together. So today we got the football.
- 0:49We got the NFL football on its regular day, Sunday.
- 0:53Look, any of my long time listeners know that the three
- 0:57things that I hate most in this world are predatory lending
- 1:04beans in my chili and the New England Patriots.
- 1:08I hate the Patriots. But sometimes when you're going
- 1:13to be successful in this wager game, you got to put those
- 1:17personal things aside and you got to look at what the data
- 1:21tells you, Go with what the guts telling you, go in with what the
- 1:24eyes tell you. And today the Pats are playing
- 1:28the Chiefs, and they're getting 8 1/2.
- 1:32And the way the Chiefs have been playing and the way the Pats
- 1:34have been having their defense, I think it's going to stay close
- 1:39and I think they're going to cover that 8 1/2.
- 1:41So despite my hatred for that hoodie and the General Patriot
- 1:46team, we got to, we got to put our money there.
- 1:49So we're going to go Patriots plus 8 1/2 against the Chiefs.
- 1:54In today's NFL football action is anything better than that.
- 1:57Pounded it. That's my pick and I'm sticking
- 1:59to it. And Vinnie, he's back trying to
- 2:03get him back on a roll. And Gaffer's got something for
- 2:06you too, boys. New calls and Vinnie, Week 14
- 2:20coming back at you looking to get back in the West, comment
- 2:24the last week I got a little ahead of myself and gave you a
- 2:27little too much of an ambitious player prop there.
- 2:30But we're going to go back to the basics this week and get on
- 2:34getting to the West column and get that bankroll nice and build
- 2:38up as we head towards the playoffs.
- 2:40Speaking of the playoffs, Cousin Vinnie's really focusing on
- 2:43games this week with playoff implications.
- 2:46What we want to do is avoid teams that are playing for
- 2:49nothing or have backup quarterbacks in all these
- 2:52nonsense games the NFL is airing.
- 2:54I just have no interest in watching them.
- 2:56We're betting on them, but that being said, this week we're
- 3:00going to go with a teaser. We're going to take two games
- 3:03that have do have playoff implications.
- 3:06The first game is the Atlanta, Carolina game.
- 3:10Atlanta's still in the playoff hunt and is currently a 2 1/2
- 3:13point favorite. We're going to tease that game
- 3:16and get Atlanta getting 3 1/2 points against the Carolina
- 3:20Panthers, who have already lost our coach to the season and
- 3:23might already have a bus for a first round draft pick in their
- 3:26quarterback and Bryce Young. So we're going to take Atlanta
- 3:32getting 3 1/2 on the first side of our teaser.
- 3:35And on the second side of our teaser, we had the LA Rams who
- 3:38were playing Rowboat Ron, formerly known as Riverboat Ron,
- 3:43who is without his best running back and and Brian Johnson.
- 3:47And you know the the Redskins really don't got much to play
- 3:50for. They've already traded away some
- 3:52of their their defensive line, Two players on their defensive
- 3:55line, they're going up against the LA Rams who are still in the
- 3:59hunt in MC East and they're a 6 1/2 point favorite.
- 4:03He teased them down. He have the LA Rams minus 1/2 a
- 4:07point. So basically they just have to
- 4:09win the game and combine them together.
- 4:12And I think you're going to be in the win column today.
- 4:14So just to review, we're going to have the teaser with the
- 4:18Atlanta Falcons getting 3 1/2 points and the LA Rams minus 1/2
- 4:26a point against the Redskins. So until next week, it's causing
- 4:30Vinnie the lack of the week. Ladies and gentlemen, the gaffer
- 4:43back with you this Sunday. English Premier League is on.
- 4:47We've got a few games going on right now, ready to kick off
- 4:51Arsenal. Bradford looks like, I'm sorry,
- 4:53Arsenal and Brighton looks like it's going to be a good one, but
- 4:56we got a huge blockbuster match up later on.
- 4:59We've got Liverpool hosting Manchester United menu.
- 5:03It is struggling this year, not doing well at all.
- 5:07Bruno Fernandez is out. They don't have a shot here
- 5:10today, do they? Yes, they do.
- 5:12They're going to get that tie. Y'all.
- 5:14They're not going to get Liverpool get all three points.
- 5:16It's a classic matchup. It's going to be a tie, one
- 5:20point to each side, Gaffer says. Good luck, you're going to need
