1
00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:02,200
Speaker 1: Welcome into the opening line report.

2
00:00:02,319 --> 00:00:07,480
Speaker 2: Crazy Monday in between Christmas in New Year's What day

3
00:00:07,559 --> 00:00:09,640
is it? I know a day is because it's Monday morning,

4
00:00:09,640 --> 00:00:11,839
and every single Monday morning I hang out here with

5
00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:14,599
Teddy Covers. If there's any banging in the background, if

6
00:00:14,599 --> 00:00:18,000
there's any annoyances, I apologize guys, because there are still

7
00:00:18,039 --> 00:00:19,719
a lot of people in my house. I need them

8
00:00:19,760 --> 00:00:22,480
to leave because we got to get down to business. Teddycovers,

9
00:00:22,600 --> 00:00:26,120
I hope you had a wonderful week of festivities with

10
00:00:26,239 --> 00:00:29,519
your friends and family. I have had a really great time,

11
00:00:29,559 --> 00:00:30,920
but now it's time for them to go home.

12
00:00:31,640 --> 00:00:34,200
Speaker 3: Sure, anytime people come to visit, you'd like to see them,

13
00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:36,119
and you like it when they leave, you know it's

14
00:00:36,119 --> 00:00:38,520
good to go. But the clients and I enjoyed yesterday

15
00:00:38,520 --> 00:00:40,719
to in o NFL sweep. It'spent a good run in

16
00:00:40,759 --> 00:00:44,960
December in the NFL. I think ten and four over

17
00:00:44,960 --> 00:00:47,960
the last four weeks. So we're making money and that's

18
00:00:47,960 --> 00:00:50,600
my job, so good. It's good when we do our

19
00:00:50,679 --> 00:00:51,359
job correctly.

20
00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:54,520
Speaker 2: It is good when we do our job correctly. I've

21
00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:57,840
got lots of questions for you in regards to week eighteen.

22
00:00:57,920 --> 00:00:59,679
I know you want to talk on some season win

23
00:00:59,799 --> 00:01:02,520
till as well. But while we wait for everybody to

24
00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:04,920
kind of get in here this morning, get into the comments,

25
00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:07,040
give us some likes, and of course shout out to

26
00:01:07,079 --> 00:01:11,680
those wager Talk insiders. This morning, I wanted to ask

27
00:01:11,719 --> 00:01:14,200
you about Monday Night football every week, I say, Teddy,

28
00:01:14,239 --> 00:01:15,400
do you got a free play up? Do you have

29
00:01:15,439 --> 00:01:19,000
a premium play? What's kind of going on for Week seventeen.

30
00:01:19,079 --> 00:01:22,120
We've got the Rams just a little over a touchdown

31
00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:23,560
at the Falcons.

32
00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:26,040
Speaker 3: So I have a free play video up right now

33
00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:28,920
on my homepage Wagertalk dot com. You can go to

34
00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:34,680
my homepage directly wt dot buzzbackslash TC. I've got a

35
00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:37,319
free play up fortnight with the Rams and the Falcons.

36
00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:39,480
I made a case for the over in the ballgame.

37
00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:42,680
We're seeing right now money coming in for the side

38
00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:46,439
in this ballgame, a lot of Falcons money in the

39
00:01:46,519 --> 00:01:50,719
last twenty four hours or so, taking out to most

40
00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:52,480
of many of the seven and a half and eight

41
00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:54,319
and eight and a halfs that were out there down

42
00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:57,480
to seven at most books. So we've seen Falcons money

43
00:01:57,519 --> 00:01:59,719
and I made a case for the over. Check out

44
00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:03,439
again my homepagell bet Dot Buzz, Backslash TC to get

45
00:02:03,439 --> 00:02:06,439
that rationale or just watch wader Talk all day today.

46
00:02:06,439 --> 00:02:08,719
I'm gonna be on wade You Talk today that starts

47
00:02:08,759 --> 00:02:10,840
in an hour. I'm gonna be on Wadeer Talk Last

48
00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:14,439
Call that is I believe four pm Pacific time tonight,

49
00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:18,120
So we'll break down that game multiple times before this

50
00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:20,159
day is through. I've already broke it down once if

51
00:02:20,159 --> 00:02:21,520
you need to watch it right now.

52
00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:23,960
Speaker 1: Six pm Eastern, three pm Pacific.

53
00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:27,479
Speaker 2: I'm told for you guys, Yes, Era Lapsine's actually going

54
00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:30,960
to be hosting for Joe Madden tonight so that I

55
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:32,960
can get the rest of these people out of my house.

56
00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:35,879
Speaker 1: And get new guests for New Year's I this is

57
00:02:35,879 --> 00:02:36,680
a problem, Teddy.

58
00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:40,960
Speaker 2: Whenever you move from one vacation spot to another, your

59
00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:44,439
house seems to always be a hotel. All jokes aside,

60
00:02:44,599 --> 00:02:46,159
let's before we get go ahead, Teddy.

61
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:48,120
Speaker 3: So, I was gonna say, I lived in Michigan for

62
00:02:48,199 --> 00:02:51,159
a decade before I moved out to Vegas. And when

63
00:02:51,159 --> 00:02:53,400
you move from one place to another other than Michigan,

64
00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:58,479
maybe like three people visited me family, family only, and

65
00:02:58,479 --> 00:02:59,879
then you moved to Vegas. All of a sudden. Every

66
00:03:00,039 --> 00:03:01,680
one you've ever known is like, Hey, can I crash

67
00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:03,039
in your couch? Hey, I'm going to sleep in your

68
00:03:03,039 --> 00:03:03,639
spare bedroom.

69
00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:05,719
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, and here we are.

70
00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:07,840
Speaker 2: I actually just found out have to buy a new

71
00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:10,039
air mattress because mine has a hole in it.

72
00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:13,199
Speaker 1: So happy New Year and Kelly, ah shocker.

73
00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:16,120
Speaker 2: All jokes aside, Teddy, we are going to get into

74
00:03:16,159 --> 00:03:19,159
this NFL Week eighteen. I'm gonna ask you lots of

75
00:03:19,199 --> 00:03:22,000
annoying questions that either the audience wants to know, that

76
00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:24,879
I want to know, or that I think are wager

77
00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:25,840
talk betters want to know.

78
00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:28,639
Speaker 1: But first, you wanted to touch on some season win totals.

79
00:03:29,039 --> 00:03:31,080
Speaker 2: When we were about to start the show, you said, hey,

80
00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:33,400
we've got X number and play and I said, wow.

81
00:03:33,319 --> 00:03:34,719
Speaker 1: We have good job Vegas, and.

82
00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:37,520
Speaker 2: He said, well, not really, that's pretty standard coming into

83
00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:38,120
Week eighteen.

84
00:03:38,639 --> 00:03:40,360
Speaker 3: Sure, sure, last week of the season, and there's six

85
00:03:40,439 --> 00:03:43,240
week right now, there are thirteen overs that have cashed,

86
00:03:43,719 --> 00:03:46,039
thirteen unders that have cashed. When it comes to season

87
00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:48,719
win totals, I'm a sheet back here from the summer

88
00:03:49,599 --> 00:03:53,719
from the Westgates seper book. But there are still six

89
00:03:53,879 --> 00:03:57,840
in play. Atlanta over under eight Buffalo over under eleven

90
00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:01,199
and a half, Dallas over under eight, Green Bay over

91
00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:03,680
under nine and a half, Minnesota over under eight and

92
00:04:03,719 --> 00:04:05,680
a half, who'd have thought that a month ago, and

93
00:04:05,759 --> 00:04:09,680
Philadelphia over under eleven and a half, all six of

94
00:04:09,719 --> 00:04:13,400
those coming down to week eighteen. But everything else is

95
00:04:13,439 --> 00:04:17,199
a done deal in the NFL win total marketplace. Unfortunately,

96
00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:19,560
this was not a great year. My client said, I

97
00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:21,600
am that regard. We will finish with a losing season

98
00:04:21,639 --> 00:04:24,680
two and four. But all my stuff was decided early

99
00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:27,839
by basically by November first. It was a done deal

100
00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:30,720
by December first. Everything could either cash or not cash,

101
00:04:30,759 --> 00:04:34,439
so I had right sides and wrong sides. Unfortunately, Seattle

102
00:04:34,519 --> 00:04:37,560
under was the wrong side, New England under was a

103
00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:42,160
wrong side. Raiders over Arizona over. Not my best work

104
00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:45,920
this summer, unfortunately. That said, we did cash with Cincy under,

105
00:04:45,959 --> 00:04:48,680
we cast with Washington under, and we'll come back next year,

106
00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:51,480
so help me. I expect to do better a year

107
00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:55,360
from now. Obviously, the long term track record what well overs.

108
00:04:55,879 --> 00:04:58,959
It's close to two out of three over twenty something years.

109
00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:02,600
Not the first losing season I've had, but I've never

110
00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:05,120
head back to back losing seasons I don't expect you

111
00:05:05,199 --> 00:05:05,560
next year.

112
00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:10,120
Speaker 2: We're playing the long game here on wager Talk.

113
00:05:10,519 --> 00:05:11,480
Speaker 1: Let's talk about.

114
00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:15,319
Speaker 2: The long game that is Week eighteen. So I just

115
00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:17,000
tease the rams. I know you guys are sick of

116
00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:20,240
hearing it, but they just keep cashing. Teasers have been

117
00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:22,560
really good to me this year. So that's said, all right,

118
00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:24,839
I'm gonna start looking ahead to next week. I text

119
00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:27,160
the list of teasers to my gambling group chat and

120
00:05:27,199 --> 00:05:30,000
Era Elapsecene chimes in. She goes, man, there's a lot

121
00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:31,879
of irrelevant games.

122
00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:33,639
Speaker 1: I said, whoa, you think.

123
00:05:33,519 --> 00:05:37,279
Speaker 2: Broncos Chargers is irrelevant? Well, yeah, because the AFC West

124
00:05:37,279 --> 00:05:39,759
has already locked up. I'm like, no, no, no, these

125
00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:42,480
two teams still hate each other. There's still a lot

126
00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:43,240
to play for.

127
00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:45,319
Speaker 1: Or am I wrong, Teddy?

128
00:05:45,399 --> 00:05:47,800
Speaker 2: A lot of these teams gonna sandbag at Week eighteen

129
00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:49,079
rest their starters.

130
00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:51,720
Speaker 1: Kind of go through your process on how you handicap

131
00:05:51,759 --> 00:05:54,199
Week eighteen and what our.

132
00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:57,480
Speaker 2: Audience should be looking for when they're handicapping Week eighteen.

133
00:05:57,800 --> 00:06:00,279
Speaker 3: Sure, Week eighteens a minefield. It's like we three of

134
00:06:00,319 --> 00:06:03,920
the preseason where you have to do your you know,

135
00:06:03,959 --> 00:06:05,600
you can't just go oh, starters are going for a cause,

136
00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:07,759
got series or two, you know, and then week three

137
00:06:07,759 --> 00:06:09,040
of the prese and you have to dig and figure

138
00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:11,000
out who's playing in the second half and what the

139
00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:14,120
coordinators are trying to accomplish. Week eighteen in the NFL

140
00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:17,319
is comparable to that. It is not the type of

141
00:06:17,319 --> 00:06:19,439
week that I tend to pepper the board with wagers.

142
00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:21,639
If I find two or three good bets this week,

143
00:06:21,759 --> 00:06:24,439
I'll be very very happy. So how do you tread

144
00:06:24,439 --> 00:06:29,120
in Week eighteen? Slowly and carefully? That being said, the

145
00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:31,360
markets are gonna go nuts, all right, what we're gonna

146
00:06:31,399 --> 00:06:35,160
talk about this morning? Week eighteen. You see, I've seen

147
00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:39,959
two touchdown line moves, and oftentimes the best bets in

148
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:44,279
Week eighteen are betting against the overreactions from the betting

149
00:06:44,319 --> 00:06:46,959
mark plays, Oh, this team cares and that team sitting starters,

150
00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:48,560
and then all of a sudden, you have a two

151
00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:50,920
touchdown spread and a game ends up being decided by

152
00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:53,680
a field goal. That happens year in, year out. This

153
00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:56,439
is a week where pay attention to the information, but

154
00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:59,319
always remember the point spread is the great equalizer.

155
00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:02,639
Speaker 2: And that's why we're here, because we want you guys

156
00:07:02,639 --> 00:07:05,759
to get the best of the number that is the

157
00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:09,279
opening number here, Teddy's gonna tell you, hey, if you

158
00:07:09,399 --> 00:07:13,480
like the over, got our emergency betting alert light ready

159
00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:13,639
to go.

160
00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:14,959
Speaker 1: Hopefully we've got a couple of those.

161
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:16,680
Speaker 2: Even though it is towards the end of the season

162
00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:19,600
with Teddy, we had two games flexed to Saturday, so

163
00:07:19,639 --> 00:07:22,839
let's get to those first. Tell me that Carolina Panthers

164
00:07:22,839 --> 00:07:24,600
are gonna win so I can cash my four to

165
00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:26,240
one NFC South ticket.

166
00:07:27,399 --> 00:07:29,439
Speaker 3: Well, let's start with this, okay, So for Week eighteen

167
00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:31,439
and moving forward. Every week during the regular season, we

168
00:07:31,439 --> 00:07:34,519
talk about lookhead lines. Lookhead lines have come and gone,

169
00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:37,720
although we may see I'm gonna look to see if

170
00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:40,839
I can find matchup lines when it comes to the playoffs,

171
00:07:40,839 --> 00:07:42,839
so we'll see potential matchups if I can find something,

172
00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:44,720
so we have a sense of what the look at

173
00:07:44,759 --> 00:07:48,079
would have been. That being said, I know look at

174
00:07:48,079 --> 00:07:50,800
lines this week. I didn't see any books that posted

175
00:07:50,879 --> 00:07:55,519
numbers prior to action finishing yesterday. Obviously, with the Week

176
00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:59,160
eighteen with teams motivation in question all over the place,

177
00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:01,439
I'm not surprised we never see look a headlines for

178
00:08:01,399 --> 00:08:04,279
a Week eight team. When it comes to Carolina and

179
00:08:04,319 --> 00:08:06,720
Tampa Bay. However, what I do have for all of

180
00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:10,519
these games is my powering number. And my powering number

181
00:08:10,519 --> 00:08:13,439
for these games is real simple, team A, team B

182
00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:17,879
home field. It is not factoring in this guy's gonna

183
00:08:17,879 --> 00:08:21,040
sit starters, this team's got motivation, et cetera, et cetera.

184
00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:24,240
It's just team A, team B home field. When there

185
00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:26,120
are issues with a quarterback or something like that, I'll

186
00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:30,439
talk about it. In this instance, Carolina Tampa Bay, my

187
00:08:30,519 --> 00:08:32,720
powering number has the bucks minus two and a half.

188
00:08:32,759 --> 00:08:34,960
The market's open three and forty three and a half

189
00:08:35,039 --> 00:08:38,879
last night, and what are we seeing today? Three forty

190
00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:41,519
three and a half. Leading indicator books are pointing down.

191
00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:45,120
Though you know, I'm seeing a three even money in

192
00:08:45,159 --> 00:08:48,320
the global marketplace right now, which tells us that I

193
00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:49,919
don't expect this line to go up. And obouls see

194
00:08:49,919 --> 00:08:51,559
my number is only two and a half for Tampa.

195
00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:54,639
But when you look at Caroline, I mean the loss

196
00:08:54,639 --> 00:08:57,399
to Seattle yesterday is why I don't trust Carolina as

197
00:08:57,440 --> 00:09:00,799
a playoff team. It's why the markets trust Caroline is

198
00:09:00,799 --> 00:09:02,720
a playoff team. Six or eight losses have come by

199
00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:05,679
double digits, and against playoff teams, they've gotten killed. The

200
00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:08,120
Pats beating by twenty nine, the Bills beating by twenty one,

201
00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:10,879
the Seahawks beating by seventeen. That was only because they

202
00:09:10,919 --> 00:09:13,039
threw a pick six. You know, throw an internet from

203
00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:15,840
the end zone would have been worse than that. And

204
00:09:15,879 --> 00:09:18,440
of course Carolina's offense didn't work in any of those games.

205
00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:20,279
They had ten first downs, one hundred and thirty nine

206
00:09:20,279 --> 00:09:22,879
total yards two point seven yards per play yesterday in

207
00:09:22,879 --> 00:09:27,799
two turnovers. You know, Carolina is five and one after

208
00:09:27,799 --> 00:09:30,639
a loss of this season. Dave Canalis quote, we definitely

209
00:09:30,639 --> 00:09:32,399
feel the missed opportunity, but at the same time, we

210
00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:34,480
know what's in front of us. It's clearly defined that

211
00:09:34,519 --> 00:09:36,080
we have to get over the fact that we missed

212
00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:38,279
it opportunity with the Bucks losing that game, but our

213
00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:41,279
focus has to go to the next one pretty quickly.

214
00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:44,320
This was an interesting quote and I thought it was

215
00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:47,600
worth bringing up here from Bryce Young after the game,

216
00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:50,080
and I wont I'm trying to read between the lines.

217
00:09:50,279 --> 00:09:52,639
It felt like this is a shot at the coaching staff,

218
00:09:52,639 --> 00:09:54,720
the offsitive coaching staff in Carolina, and it kind of

219
00:09:54,759 --> 00:09:58,039
surprised me. Bryce Young after the Seahawks macked them yesterday.

220
00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:01,519
Quote credit to them. They made adjustments to the game

221
00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:04,000
plan and did a better job of executing it. We're

222
00:10:04,039 --> 00:10:06,200
gonna go up against different schemes and teams that are

223
00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:09,000
gonna make adjustments. We need to be able to react

224
00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:13,200
to that and counter it. We'll watch the film, listen,

225
00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:15,440
learn and grow from it. Carolina has been very good

226
00:10:15,519 --> 00:10:17,240
off a loss the season is the biggest game the

227
00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:20,480
fans have played in several years. As for Tampa, I

228
00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:22,759
mean Baker at three forty six yesterday, seven point nine

229
00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:26,799
yards for passdempt two touchdowns, but they turned the ball

230
00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:30,000
over two interceptions for Baker yesterday, minus three for Tampa.

231
00:10:30,279 --> 00:10:33,639
The defense didn't force any turnovers. Last week when they

232
00:10:33,639 --> 00:10:36,679
lost to Carolina, the defense didn't force any turnovers. The

233
00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:40,639
week before versus Atlanta, the defense didn't force any turnovers.

234
00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:44,159
So you have a defense that's clearly not forcing turnovers

235
00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:48,039
right now. Tama's got no running game. Sixteen carries fifty

236
00:10:48,039 --> 00:10:51,320
three yards yesterday. They can't run. They can't win one

237
00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:53,720
in seven straight up since they're six and two start

238
00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:57,279
and the last four losses or the Bucks have all

239
00:10:57,320 --> 00:11:00,600
come to teams that are below five hundred favored by

240
00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:02,600
minus three or higher the last five games a row

241
00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:05,360
and five against the spread in those contests, and Mayfield

242
00:11:05,399 --> 00:11:08,240
that's own an interception in every one of them. You know,

243
00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:11,639
Mike Evans, the Hall of Famer at wide receiver quote,

244
00:11:11,799 --> 00:11:14,360
we didn't deserve the win. They played like David Chance

245
00:11:14,399 --> 00:11:16,360
for the playoffs. We played like we're ready to go

246
00:11:16,399 --> 00:11:20,960
home again. One and seven, last eight, they're laying here.

247
00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:23,559
They can still clinch their fifth consecutive division title, their

248
00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:25,120
sixth raight playoff birth. All they got to do is

249
00:11:25,159 --> 00:11:28,360
win this game. That'll force a tie. You know, Todd

250
00:11:28,399 --> 00:11:31,000
Bowles quote, Everything is possible and you've got a chance

251
00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:33,080
to play. We just need to put it together in play,

252
00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:35,279
and that takes work. We work hard. We do it

253
00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:37,679
right in practice. Can't explain it in the game. We

254
00:11:37,759 --> 00:11:40,360
definitely as coaches and players need to look ourselves in

255
00:11:40,440 --> 00:11:45,360
the mirror. The betting marketplace is respecting Tampa in this

256
00:11:45,519 --> 00:11:48,480
point spread range, either that or as disrespecting the Carolina

257
00:11:48,519 --> 00:11:51,080
team that has not shown the ability to beat quality foes.

258
00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:53,799
But at one and seven their last eight right now,

259
00:11:54,159 --> 00:11:55,399
Tampa's not a quality foe.

260
00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:58,600
Speaker 1: I agree. I've been betting against them for weeks now.

261
00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:01,879
Speaker 2: But my one love lost yesterday in the Westgate Super

262
00:12:01,919 --> 00:12:05,759
Contest was that Panthers team Seattle came to play in

263
00:12:05,799 --> 00:12:09,519
that second half, especially on the defensive side of the ball.

264
00:12:09,639 --> 00:12:13,200
Now they're playing a Niners team off a nice Sunday

265
00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:16,000
night football come behind win over the Bears.

266
00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:22,759
Speaker 3: Sure, and just real quick, that's seven o'clock Eastern time, Like,

267
00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:24,679
why the hell were they doing last call at three

268
00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:26,399
o'clock for a game to start at five pint fifty?

269
00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:31,240
Speaker 1: Listen? I mentioned this morning, I got an energy drink

270
00:12:31,279 --> 00:12:31,759
for a reason.

271
00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:34,759
Speaker 2: We're gonna get the focus going. We're gonna get our

272
00:12:34,799 --> 00:12:39,399
act together, Teddy. Let's head over to San Francisco, the

273
00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:42,960
home of the Super Bowl. Teddy, this game means a

274
00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:45,039
hell of a lot to both of these teams.

275
00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:46,399
Speaker 1: Break down this one for us.

276
00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:50,879
Speaker 3: My powering number Seattle minus one. The betting markets opened

277
00:12:51,039 --> 00:12:54,720
San Francisco minus one. Right now we're seeing minus one.

278
00:12:54,799 --> 00:12:56,320
We're seeing pickums. They can get a one and a

279
00:12:56,360 --> 00:12:58,279
half with the Seahawks, can get a one and a

280
00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:01,159
half with the Rams for Monday morning. Whatever side do

281
00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:03,759
you like right now, it's a good time to bet it.

282
00:13:03,799 --> 00:13:07,279
I'll leave it at that. There is a market opinion

283
00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:11,120
and market volatility on this ball game. As for the

284
00:13:11,159 --> 00:13:14,559
Sea Bags, look what they do yesterday, workmanlike one hundred

285
00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:16,279
and sixty three rushing yards, no catch as long as

286
00:13:16,279 --> 00:13:19,320
than eighteen yards, all Donald dink and dunk, which doesn't

287
00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:21,559
necessarily bode well for the playoff, and Donald another bad

288
00:13:21,639 --> 00:13:24,799
ren zone interception that kept it being a worst blowout.

289
00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:28,600
Seattle twenty eight giveaways this season. That's the second most

290
00:13:28,639 --> 00:13:30,879
in the NFL. That too does not bode well for

291
00:13:30,919 --> 00:13:35,120
the postseason. But this Seahawks defense has been dynamite. They

292
00:13:35,159 --> 00:13:37,159
held the Panthers to ten first downs one hundred and

293
00:13:37,159 --> 00:13:40,279
thirty nine total yards, which does bode well for the playoffs.

294
00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:43,320
And again, you know they won what the thirteen games,

295
00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:45,480
six straight, and they still need to win this game

296
00:13:45,519 --> 00:13:48,080
to secure the number one seed. De Marcus Lawrence, defensive

297
00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:50,120
lineman quote, We're gonna make sure we take care of business.

298
00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:51,360
It's in our hand. The only thing we have to

299
00:13:51,399 --> 00:13:56,039
do is grasp it. Same story every week McDonald the

300
00:13:56,080 --> 00:13:58,600
head coach, Same story every week. We didn't flinch. I

301
00:13:58,639 --> 00:14:00,600
beg emstince this week was can we deck plays in

302
00:14:00,639 --> 00:14:03,120
all three phases? Because they have to do so about

303
00:14:03,159 --> 00:14:05,440
the second half. We did a great job. Certainly Seattle

304
00:14:05,919 --> 00:14:09,639
from a defensive standpoint, they're a lot better than San Francisco.

305
00:14:09,919 --> 00:14:12,399
And we saw that forty nine Ers defense get absolutely

306
00:14:12,399 --> 00:14:16,320
lit up again last night by Caleb Williams. Luckily for them,

307
00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:18,600
the Bears run out and ran out of time. Uh,

308
00:14:18,799 --> 00:14:21,320
but this is no Super Bowl caliber defense right now.

309
00:14:21,559 --> 00:14:25,440
That being said, brock perty is in sick form. Dude.

310
00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:27,919
He couldn't be stopped by Indy and he couldn't be

311
00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:31,240
stopped hits the better defense in Chicago last night, except

312
00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:34,840
for the pick six opened the game. But I mean,

313
00:14:34,879 --> 00:14:36,279
when you start a game five to five in the

314
00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:38,639
red zone, they were six and nine on third downs,

315
00:14:38,679 --> 00:14:40,679
one on one on four downs. They don't punt munch

316
00:14:40,799 --> 00:14:43,440
right now. And that's, you know, is the matchup between

317
00:14:43,559 --> 00:14:48,399
the unstoppable offense and the unstoppable defense in Seattle. In general,

318
00:14:48,559 --> 00:14:51,120
in these matchups, I tend to look to the team

319
00:14:51,279 --> 00:14:53,679
with the better defense, not the better offense.

320
00:14:54,399 --> 00:14:57,600
Speaker 2: All right, Both teams that have well, I don't know,

321
00:14:57,720 --> 00:14:59,720
not lived up to expectations.

322
00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:00,879
Speaker 1: Pas.

323
00:15:01,799 --> 00:15:04,639
Speaker 2: Obviously, I had some injuries in the quarterback position. As

324
00:15:04,679 --> 00:15:07,679
of late down the stretch, Vikings have struggled with injuries

325
00:15:07,679 --> 00:15:12,240
in that position all season long. Does this line indicate

326
00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:16,000
that Malik Willis just isn't going to be serviceable enough

327
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:18,360
to go into Minnesota and be able to get this win.

328
00:15:19,559 --> 00:15:23,080
Speaker 3: So my line for the game with Willis at QB,

329
00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:26,919
this is a no love line is pick them. What

330
00:15:27,559 --> 00:15:32,600
From a powering standpoint, it's pick them all right? The

331
00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:34,480
Minnesota is laying six and a half.

332
00:15:34,679 --> 00:15:37,639
Speaker 1: All right, it's appalling. I saw this and I thought

333
00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:39,960
that can be right? What am I missing here?

334
00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:45,080
Speaker 3: Let's talk about why? All right? The Packers defense just

335
00:15:45,120 --> 00:15:48,679
allowed three hundred rushing yards. Meanwhile, Manny Wilson and Josh

336
00:15:48,759 --> 00:15:52,320
Jacobs got nineteen on the ground together. You know, Derrick

337
00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:54,639
Henry just rushed for the most ever by a visiting

338
00:15:54,679 --> 00:15:59,279
player at lambeau Field. It's the second straight week that

339
00:15:59,399 --> 00:16:05,440
Green Bay lost despite not punting. Only six other teams

340
00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:07,519
in the history of the NFL have gone back to

341
00:16:07,639 --> 00:16:11,799
back weeks without punting. Those six teams when a combined

342
00:16:11,840 --> 00:16:14,159
twelve and zero in those games, the Packers are zero

343
00:16:14,159 --> 00:16:17,519
and two. They're issues on the defense side of the

344
00:16:17,519 --> 00:16:20,360
football right now for green Bay? All right, you know,

345
00:16:20,399 --> 00:16:22,960
Matt Laflorida is a humbling knight. Give Baltimore a ton

346
00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:25,080
of credit. They'ven came in here and we're complete control

347
00:16:25,480 --> 00:16:29,440
of the whole game. Now we have a Packers defense

348
00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:32,480
that's real iffy. All right. They have no chance to

349
00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:34,440
win the NFC North. They will start the playoffs on

350
00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:40,159
the road, and from all indications, everybody's sitting. Milik Willis

351
00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:42,480
is probably gonna sit in this ball game, all right.

352
00:16:44,639 --> 00:16:47,799
They got five different guys set, you know, with season

353
00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:50,320
ending injuries last week, Alton Jenkins and Tucker Craft and

354
00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:55,399
Michael Parsons thought that Wyatt John Fitzpatrick. And then during

355
00:16:55,399 --> 00:16:58,000
the game they lost st Anderson the safety and defensive

356
00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:01,279
lineman heard his achilles and Kamal Hayden hurt his ankle.

357
00:17:01,279 --> 00:17:03,120
They were all carted to the locker room and Nate

358
00:17:03,159 --> 00:17:05,960
Hobbs had a knee injury and to be Dantavian Wicks

359
00:17:06,039 --> 00:17:10,079
was evaluated from cussion. This is a very banged up

360
00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:13,680
football team. And Matt Lafleur said, quote, I haven't decided

361
00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:15,680
how I'm gonna handle the reguarstee and the finale. That won't

362
00:17:15,759 --> 00:17:20,279
change our playoff positioning. The markets expecting green Bay to

363
00:17:20,359 --> 00:17:23,519
sit everybody as for the Vikings. I mean, if you

364
00:17:23,519 --> 00:17:25,960
want to late points with Max Brosmer at qv knock

365
00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:28,319
yourself out. I have a good time. Brosmer went nine

366
00:17:28,359 --> 00:17:30,720
to sixteen for fifty one yards. He had seven sacks

367
00:17:30,839 --> 00:17:33,319
from minus forty eight yards. That leaves the net three

368
00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:35,640
of passing yards, the fewest net passing yards by a

369
00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:38,720
winning team in the NFL since two thousand and six.

370
00:17:39,319 --> 00:17:42,599
The only other teams that have ever won games with

371
00:17:42,680 --> 00:17:45,039
fewer than net ten passing yards over the last forty sorry,

372
00:17:45,039 --> 00:17:47,319
over the last forty years the nineteen eighty seven Saint

373
00:17:47,359 --> 00:17:50,160
Louis Cardinals and the two thousand and six Houston Texans.

374
00:17:50,319 --> 00:17:53,839
It doesn't happen very often. They had eleven first downs,

375
00:17:53,839 --> 00:17:55,519
but they were plus six and turnovers. When you're plus

376
00:17:55,559 --> 00:17:58,759
six and turnovers, you're gonna win some games. Vikings four

377
00:17:58,799 --> 00:18:01,160
and oh straight up three one against spread since dropping

378
00:18:01,160 --> 00:18:03,960
a four and eight. But they played Washington, Dallas, the

379
00:18:04,039 --> 00:18:06,599
g Men, and the Lions, no playoff teams in that group.

380
00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:12,720
You know. The other issue for Minnesota is that is

381
00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:15,640
that Kevin O'Connell, head coach, said we may have JJ

382
00:18:15,759 --> 00:18:18,880
McCarthy back this week. Quote. He's doing well with ext

383
00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:20,799
time until next week. We'll see. It's going to come

384
00:18:20,839 --> 00:18:22,519
down to just grip strength in his ability to grip

385
00:18:22,559 --> 00:18:24,720
the football and throw it. I would love to get

386
00:18:24,759 --> 00:18:28,160
him one more opportunity this year. I look forward to

387
00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:30,279
seeing how JJ progress is here early in the week.

388
00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:33,200
I will see if we can have him. So Minnesota

389
00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:35,960
trying to get McCarthy back in the lineup Green Bay.

390
00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:37,759
It's gonna be third. It's just gonna be you know,

391
00:18:38,039 --> 00:18:39,759
everyone that they don't care if they get hurt this

392
00:18:39,799 --> 00:18:43,880
week for the Packers. Hence, even though my powering says

393
00:18:43,920 --> 00:18:46,599
pick them, the markets are six and a half, and

394
00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:48,160
I'm not looking to play the dog.

395
00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:51,319
Speaker 1: And he's not looking to play the dog.

396
00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:54,119
Speaker 2: All right, Well, if it gets high enough, maybe I

397
00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:55,519
will tease Minnesota.

398
00:18:55,759 --> 00:18:56,359
Speaker 1: Let's up.

399
00:18:56,880 --> 00:19:00,400
Speaker 3: Let me jump on teasers for Week eighteen. Okay, where

400
00:19:01,359 --> 00:19:03,519
it's a high volatility week. There are teams that aren't

401
00:19:03,519 --> 00:19:05,960
gonna show up. There's gonna be more blow, there's gonna

402
00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:10,279
be more variants from the point spread than usual, and

403
00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:13,400
teasers are at their best when games finish close to

404
00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:15,519
the point spread, and this is one of those weeks

405
00:19:15,519 --> 00:19:18,720
where games are likely to fall further away from the

406
00:19:18,720 --> 00:19:21,000
point it's not gonna be your typical bell curve. It's

407
00:19:21,039 --> 00:19:22,319
gonna be much flatter.

408
00:19:23,440 --> 00:19:24,160
Speaker 1: So noted.

409
00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:29,039
Speaker 2: Yeah, programming note, teaser note, We've got one more note

410
00:19:29,079 --> 00:19:31,559
from Teddy coming to make us better. Better is here

411
00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:35,480
on wager talk is Philip River is gonna be starting

412
00:19:35,480 --> 00:19:36,440
for the Indianapolis Colts.

413
00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:37,960
Speaker 1: He's done right. So we're gonna.

414
00:19:37,720 --> 00:19:42,799
Speaker 2: See Riley Leonard on the road at the Houston Texans.

415
00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:48,960
Texans nice cruise yesterday. This is a team that I

416
00:19:49,039 --> 00:19:51,720
didn't necessarily think would be as good as they are.

417
00:19:51,839 --> 00:19:52,160
Speaker 1: CJ.

418
00:19:52,319 --> 00:19:55,519
Speaker 2: Stroud second year kind of struggled. Third year has shown

419
00:19:55,599 --> 00:19:58,240
some real moments of greatness, but he did start to

420
00:19:58,559 --> 00:20:02,119
like kind of just have we're that oft installed there.

421
00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:04,920
On Saturday versus the Chargers, Teddy kind of talk about

422
00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:07,000
this Houston Texans team and what we should expect to

423
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:08,440
see from them come Sunday.

424
00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:12,160
Speaker 3: Sure powering number Texans ten and a half. The market's

425
00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:15,920
open ten and forty last night, and that's what we're

426
00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:18,480
seeing today, ten and forty. There are some ten and

427
00:20:18,519 --> 00:20:21,799
a half popping up. I no for emergency betting alerts today.

428
00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:23,920
I'm not sure what we're gonna right now. The markets

429
00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:25,839
haven't done a damn thing. I mean, they really have it.

430
00:20:26,039 --> 00:20:28,559
You know, sometimes it's the odds logic live on screen

431
00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:30,599
is painted black on a Monday morning. This is not

432
00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:33,519
one of those mornings. What will happen throughout the course

433
00:20:33,519 --> 00:20:34,880
of the week is a coach and make an announcement

434
00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:37,440
in the market. Bone you know, the market you'll see

435
00:20:37,559 --> 00:20:41,799
literally the games gets deemed a touchdown plus in week eighteen.

436
00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:43,680
So I'm not sure how much we're gonna have for

437
00:20:43,680 --> 00:20:46,440
EBAs this morning mergy betting alerts. That being said, be

438
00:20:46,519 --> 00:20:49,200
aware the markets will move and they'll go crazy throughout

439
00:20:49,359 --> 00:20:54,000
the course of the week. Philip Rivers quote, I told

440
00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:56,039
you guys, who wasn't gonna have any regrets about coming back?

441
00:20:56,039 --> 00:20:58,880
And I don't other than us not winning. There's been

442
00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:01,279
an afflute plath for three. If I go back and say,

443
00:21:01,319 --> 00:21:03,200
all right, now you know everything is going to happen,

444
00:21:03,279 --> 00:21:04,839
what do you do, I'd still do it all again.

445
00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:07,440
It's been absolutely awesome. So yeah, I mean, if it's

446
00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:10,200
the last one, it's the last one, and it really

447
00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:11,880
looks like that would be his last start, you know,

448
00:21:12,039 --> 00:21:14,759
Riley Leonard. One would expect him to start in the

449
00:21:14,799 --> 00:21:17,839
season finale and of course rivers what he finished with

450
00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:20,519
sixty three percent completions, five hundred and forty four yards,

451
00:21:20,559 --> 00:21:22,880
four touchdowns, three picks, and the Colts won OZ one

452
00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:27,119
three in those games. You know, they said he's gonna

453
00:21:27,119 --> 00:21:30,240
go home to Fair Hope, Alabama and continue his place

454
00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:33,079
as a head coach for Saint Michael's Catholic quote, I'll

455
00:21:33,079 --> 00:21:35,839
be right back on the sidelines coaching. I'm sure many

456
00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:38,960
watching probably said that's where you belong, though. It was

457
00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:41,720
a pretty funny line. Riley Leonard likely to get to

458
00:21:41,720 --> 00:21:46,920
start here. Indy a team that you know, again, they had.

459
00:21:46,960 --> 00:21:48,599
They had a great first half of the season. They've

460
00:21:48,599 --> 00:21:50,279
certainly been on the wrong side of everything over the

461
00:21:50,319 --> 00:21:53,240
second half. As for the Texans, they've won eight in

462
00:21:53,279 --> 00:21:55,519
a row. They clinched their third consecutive playoff birth the

463
00:21:55,519 --> 00:21:58,480
first time in franchise history. The defense had five secs

464
00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:02,519
against the Church. To Mike O'Ryan's quote, these guys have

465
00:22:02,559 --> 00:22:05,079
been playing lights out all year, every single game. But

466
00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:06,799
the way the d line showed up today with sack

467
00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:09,680
after sack really putting pressure on the quarterback. It was

468
00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:11,799
really cool to see a lot of different guys get

469
00:22:11,839 --> 00:22:14,880
a sack They entered the week as the NFL leader

470
00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:18,359
in yards allowed, and they held the Chargers under their

471
00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:21,319
average in that ball game as well. Justin Herbert, I

472
00:22:21,359 --> 00:22:23,920
like the quotes of the opposing team. They're very good.

473
00:22:24,160 --> 00:22:26,160
We got nothing but respect for them, the way they compete,

474
00:22:26,200 --> 00:22:30,279
fly around and play for each other. Will Anderson quote

475
00:22:30,519 --> 00:22:32,519
man our brand of ball is really one word, and

476
00:22:32,559 --> 00:22:36,720
that swarm. Whatever may happen, good or bad, everybody's just swarming.

477
00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:39,599
I think we've been brainwashed to swarm. We see that

478
00:22:39,640 --> 00:22:41,480
from the Texans this week. Not a lot to play

479
00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:45,519
for the markets certainly telling Houston. You know again, when

480
00:22:45,559 --> 00:22:48,960
it comes to playoff positioning, you talk about motivators getting

481
00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:52,799
in the playoffs a big motivator. Getting a week off

482
00:22:52,839 --> 00:22:56,039
next week could be a decent motivator. Moving from the

483
00:22:56,079 --> 00:22:58,440
number four seed to the number three seed is no

484
00:22:58,599 --> 00:23:01,839
motivator at all. Houston doesn't have a whole lot to

485
00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:05,160
play for this week, and they're still taking money because

486
00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:05,839
nobody trusting.

487
00:23:06,839 --> 00:23:09,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I kind of don't blame anybody. I think

488
00:23:09,480 --> 00:23:13,119
you probably just stay away from some of these games, Teddy.

489
00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:18,000
Next up, Dolphins, do they have a chance to play

490
00:23:18,079 --> 00:23:22,279
spoiler in regard to getting the Patriots not getting the buy.

491
00:23:22,839 --> 00:23:25,440
This is where things get really convoluted for me, because

492
00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:28,079
I'm sitting here doing power ratings with you. We're talking

493
00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:30,960
about different things, but then there are situational factors that

494
00:23:31,039 --> 00:23:31,559
do matter.

495
00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:31,799
Speaker 3: Right.

496
00:23:32,039 --> 00:23:36,160
Speaker 2: Teams want to buy, they want to have home field advantage, right,

497
00:23:36,160 --> 00:23:37,359
And we'll kind of get into some more of these

498
00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:39,880
games here in a minute, but again these are still

499
00:23:39,920 --> 00:23:44,359
divisional rivals. Dolphins off a nice went over the bucks,

500
00:23:44,640 --> 00:23:47,160
yet they're catching ten and a half at the Patriots

501
00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:47,519
this week.

502
00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:52,359
Speaker 3: Yeah, my powering number as New England minus nine. The

503
00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:55,240
market's open ten and forty five and a half. Last

504
00:23:55,319 --> 00:23:58,480
night we've seen nothing but Dolphins money. I'm seeing eleven

505
00:23:58,519 --> 00:24:00,200
and eleven and a half forty five and a half

506
00:24:00,279 --> 00:24:03,359
right now. So I started nothing with Patriots money. I

507
00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:05,400
said Dolphins money. I did not mean Dolphins money. I

508
00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:08,680
meant page nothing with Patriots money. The ten and a

509
00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:12,759
half eleven all getting bought up this morning. And Miami

510
00:24:12,799 --> 00:24:15,240
again two and seven, start, five and two since Mike

511
00:24:15,319 --> 00:24:18,079
McDaniel saved his job again. Same thing last year two

512
00:24:18,119 --> 00:24:21,640
and six start, then six and two. They did lose

513
00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:24,400
Week eighteen at the Jets, a cold Weather game they

514
00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:26,519
lost by doubles digits, and the Jets were awful last

515
00:24:26,559 --> 00:24:30,119
year too, so Miami once it came down to that

516
00:24:30,160 --> 00:24:35,599
Week eighteen finale, there wasn't anything left in the tank yesterday.

517
00:24:35,599 --> 00:24:37,480
One hundred and forty five rushing yards, Queen youwers, one

518
00:24:37,519 --> 00:24:40,759
hundred and seventy two passing yards, no picks viewers quote.

519
00:24:40,839 --> 00:24:42,319
We're not playing for a Super Bowl, but we did

520
00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:44,079
a really good job of coming out here and playing

521
00:24:44,079 --> 00:24:46,200
for each other, playing for our last names, and playing

522
00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:48,960
for the organization, showing that when university strikes, we're going

523
00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:51,880
to respond. Impressive win yesterday against the Bucks team that's

524
00:24:51,920 --> 00:24:54,440
basically in free fall right now. As for New England,

525
00:24:54,519 --> 00:24:56,880
obviously they're playing in theory for the number one seed.

526
00:24:56,880 --> 00:24:59,119
They're tied with the Broncos same record at thirteen and three,

527
00:24:59,119 --> 00:25:01,960
but Denver currently hold the tie breaker. Drake May, I

528
00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:04,160
mean the Patriots scored touchdowns in their first six possessions

529
00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:06,680
against the Jets yesterday. Then again, the Jets defense, we'll

530
00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:08,880
talk about them later. They're not stopping anyone. But May

531
00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:11,240
was basically perfect. Nineteen to twenty one, two fifty six,

532
00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:13,279
five touchdowns, no picks. They had one hundred and fifty

533
00:25:13,319 --> 00:25:16,160
three rushing yards fifty five rushing yards that includes the

534
00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:18,200
Josh Dobbs Neil downs at the end of the ball game.

535
00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:20,680
Finished the regular season undefeated on the road, won the

536
00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:22,680
AFC East title for the first time to two thousand

537
00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:29,559
and nine, you know, after the Bills lost, and now

538
00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:31,200
in theory, they're playing for the number one seed here,

539
00:25:31,200 --> 00:25:33,680
although Denver, like I said, holds a tie breaker, So

540
00:25:34,240 --> 00:25:37,160
in that sense, the markets are going to price New

541
00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:40,839
England as a quote must win team. I'm not surprised

542
00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:44,559
we've seen Patriots money despite the Dolphins' recent success. Again,

543
00:25:44,599 --> 00:25:47,799
Miami's track record in this particular Week eighteen season of

544
00:25:47,799 --> 00:25:51,160
an alley game last year wasn't all that good?

545
00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:54,039
Speaker 1: All right? Definitely, two teams with nothing to play for.

546
00:25:54,079 --> 00:25:55,559
The Kansas City Chiefs are.

547
00:25:55,640 --> 00:25:59,480
Speaker 2: Taking on the Las Vegas Raiders. You mentioned teasers this

548
00:25:59,559 --> 00:26:02,759
last couple weeks and the Raiders, well, I did have

549
00:26:02,839 --> 00:26:05,279
giants and some of them I ended up teasing Raiders

550
00:26:05,279 --> 00:26:07,759
and a couple others going for that quote unquote elusive

551
00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:11,400
middle and boy did the Raider I mean from almost

552
00:26:11,440 --> 00:26:15,000
out of the gate. Gino Smith just does what he does,

553
00:26:15,279 --> 00:26:17,079
and he turns the ball over and I knew that

554
00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:17,799
was the end of it.

555
00:26:18,160 --> 00:26:20,359
Speaker 1: Giants got a nice comfortable went on the road.

556
00:26:20,759 --> 00:26:23,359
Speaker 2: But this Chiefs team has just been sleepwalking through it

557
00:26:23,400 --> 00:26:25,279
as well, kind of trying to make some sense of

558
00:26:25,279 --> 00:26:25,880
this one, Teddy.

559
00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:28,160
Speaker 3: So this is a very menifiguring for the Raiders because

560
00:26:28,160 --> 00:26:32,119
they gotta lose. Very good point, they gotta lose, and

561
00:26:32,119 --> 00:26:34,960
they played yesterday like an organization that understood that it

562
00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:36,400
was much better for them to lose than to win.

563
00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:38,039
And the Giants were the better team and all of that.

564
00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:41,839
Kansas City my powering numbers is the Chiefs won. This

565
00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:43,440
is with the Raiders having to lose. This is with

566
00:26:43,519 --> 00:26:46,359
the Raiders at the very bottom of my power ratings. Well,

567
00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:47,960
the Jets are worse, but the Raiders, I think are

568
00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:51,000
thirty first. I've got Kansas City one and a half

569
00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:53,319
and the markets opened six and a half and thirty

570
00:26:53,319 --> 00:26:55,359
five and a half last night, which tells us how

571
00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:57,920
much the markets think the Raiders want to lose this game.

572
00:26:58,680 --> 00:27:00,480
We've seen a little bit of over money thirty six

573
00:27:00,559 --> 00:27:03,160
and a half popping thirty seventh and a half, and

574
00:27:03,359 --> 00:27:05,680
certainly from the sixth and a half that were widely

575
00:27:05,680 --> 00:27:09,039
available last night. It's down to five to five and

576
00:27:09,039 --> 00:27:10,599
a half today. So we have seen a little bit

577
00:27:10,599 --> 00:27:12,480
of Raiders money and a little bit of over money.

578
00:27:13,200 --> 00:27:18,920
But I can't you know. I mean, when you put

579
00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:21,880
Max Crosby and Brock Bauers and Jeremy Chin on injured

580
00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:23,319
reserve and none of them really want to be on

581
00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:25,160
injured reserve, You're like, yeah, you guys, just get better

582
00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:29,000
for next year. That tells you what the Raiders the

583
00:27:29,119 --> 00:27:31,440
organizationally are doing, you know, Pete Carroll, that's what we

584
00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:34,119
look like without those guys playing. Unfortunately, they're that value brought.

585
00:27:34,279 --> 00:27:38,640
Everyone tried everything they could, but that just wasn't enough.

586
00:27:39,160 --> 00:27:41,839
You know, Gino Smith's getting booed in pregame introductions. That's

587
00:27:41,839 --> 00:27:44,680
not a good sign. Kenny Pickett replaced him. He wasn't

588
00:27:44,759 --> 00:27:47,400
very good the Raiders, you know, and Smith has a

589
00:27:47,519 --> 00:27:51,960
league high seventeen interceptions. All right, Raiders want the number

590
00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:53,720
one pick. The Raiders need the number one pick. Course,

591
00:27:53,720 --> 00:27:55,240
the last time the Raiders had the number one pick,

592
00:27:55,279 --> 00:27:58,920
they took JaMarcus Russell with the number one overall pick.

593
00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:01,359
So even when you yet what you want, it doesn't

594
00:28:01,440 --> 00:28:04,759
necessarily mean that you get what you want, but they

595
00:28:04,759 --> 00:28:07,680
want to be at the top of the Mendoza sweepstakes.

596
00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:10,440
I believe whether it's the more Mendoze or whoever, it's

597
00:28:10,440 --> 00:28:13,319
the number one overall pick, the Raiders want that guy.

598
00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:15,160
They do not want to win this game in the market.

599
00:28:15,200 --> 00:28:17,640
They're telling us that whether the Chiefs are capable of

600
00:28:17,680 --> 00:28:21,319
winning it by margins another question entirely. You know, Chris Oladucon,

601
00:28:21,519 --> 00:28:23,720
is you know one of three third string quarterbacks to

602
00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:25,799
play on Christmas Day? And of course the third string

603
00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:29,640
quarterbacks on Christmas Day go three and oats and there's

604
00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:31,519
a justin big of a drop off between second stringers

605
00:28:31,559 --> 00:28:34,039
or third stringers. In many cases there is between first

606
00:28:34,039 --> 00:28:37,160
and second stringers. But the markets adjusted too much for

607
00:28:37,200 --> 00:28:39,960
these ballgames. That's the three and oats for the third

608
00:28:40,079 --> 00:28:43,119
string qbs. But oliduken camp play. You know he was

609
00:28:43,160 --> 00:28:46,119
thirty twenty two passteps for sixty six yards. That's all

610
00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:47,640
you need to know. At one hundred and thirty nine

611
00:28:47,680 --> 00:28:49,279
total yards of offense, it's not gonna win you many

612
00:28:49,359 --> 00:28:52,480
NFL games even with they played clean, only two penalties,

613
00:28:52,519 --> 00:28:54,920
no turnovers. But again they only have the ball for

614
00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:58,880
twenty minutes and then after the game, Travis Kelcey, you

615
00:28:58,920 --> 00:29:00,920
feel the generations have had happiness and the love the

616
00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:03,400
fans have. It's a beautiful thing, man. It's something I

617
00:29:03,440 --> 00:29:05,480
know all Church forever, whether it's coming out of the tunnel,

618
00:29:05,480 --> 00:29:07,359
I'm just making a big play for them. That's why

619
00:29:07,400 --> 00:29:11,480
we love Arrowhead. Not playing at Arrowhead this week, Kelsey's

620
00:29:11,519 --> 00:29:14,480
probably his last game. Chiefs not a team I'm comfortable

621
00:29:14,519 --> 00:29:17,279
laying a price with Raiders, Not a team that wants

622
00:29:17,319 --> 00:29:21,279
to win the game. This, Kelly is the epitome of

623
00:29:21,319 --> 00:29:22,240
a stay away game.

624
00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:26,119
Speaker 1: At least in my opinion, I could not agree more.

625
00:29:26,799 --> 00:29:30,720
Speaker 2: Bears needed to get the win last night to be

626
00:29:30,799 --> 00:29:33,920
the number one overall seed in the NFC.

627
00:29:34,160 --> 00:29:36,680
Speaker 1: I believe they did not get the win.

628
00:29:36,880 --> 00:29:42,880
Speaker 2: Now they played the Lions, who just oh my on Christmas,

629
00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:45,759
I you know, I had to watch with my family

630
00:29:45,799 --> 00:29:48,200
that has a bunch of Bears fans, and boy did

631
00:29:48,200 --> 00:29:50,960
they enjoy that one. Unfortunately, I lost all of my

632
00:29:51,119 --> 00:29:55,240
Lions teasers. But now I'm gonna tease the Lions again

633
00:29:55,319 --> 00:29:57,359
this week because I can't help myself.

634
00:29:57,400 --> 00:30:01,519
Speaker 3: Teddy knocking sou so. My part of the number is

635
00:30:01,519 --> 00:30:03,599
the Bears minus four and a half the markets open

636
00:30:03,680 --> 00:30:06,240
one and a half slash two last night before the

637
00:30:06,480 --> 00:30:08,079
and boy, there was various on this total. There were

638
00:30:08,119 --> 00:30:09,519
forty eight and a half, there were forty nine and

639
00:30:09,559 --> 00:30:11,079
a half, there were fifty and a halfs and everything

640
00:30:11,079 --> 00:30:13,680
in between. What we're seeing today is Bears two and

641
00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:16,160
a half, fifty and a half the prevailing total. There

642
00:30:16,160 --> 00:30:18,920
are forty nine and a half's out there. And you know,

643
00:30:18,960 --> 00:30:21,960
I mean for the Lions, they have an offensive line problem.

644
00:30:22,200 --> 00:30:24,279
That's what the issue is. Down the stretch second Street week.

645
00:30:24,279 --> 00:30:26,400
They couldn't run the football at all. If they can't run,

646
00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:29,160
the offense doesn't work. Thirty carried sixty eight rushing yards,

647
00:30:29,519 --> 00:30:31,839
you know, got through two picks, had five sacks, had

648
00:30:31,839 --> 00:30:34,599
four fumbles. You know, the defense isn't getting stops. The

649
00:30:34,680 --> 00:30:38,359
offensive can't stop, can't protect anything gough. You know. Obviously

650
00:30:38,519 --> 00:30:41,720
six turnovers is an offensive line problem. That's what the

651
00:30:41,720 --> 00:30:43,640
problem is. When you turn them all over six times,

652
00:30:43,720 --> 00:30:45,839
it's on the ol you know. And of course they

653
00:30:45,880 --> 00:30:47,559
had eight turnovers three weeks sixteen. That was the fewest

654
00:30:47,559 --> 00:30:50,599
in the league. The starting left tackle deck Or Taylor

655
00:30:50,680 --> 00:30:54,400
is ruled inactive one of more, you know, and he's

656
00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:56,839
someone who status you want to check this week's Jarrett

657
00:30:56,839 --> 00:30:59,640
goff about missing the playoffs. It sucks. Will reflecting the

658
00:30:59,640 --> 00:31:03,519
whole seat after next week, but yeah, it sucks. As

659
00:31:03,519 --> 00:31:06,200
for the Bears, I mean, the defense was aftutely gashed

660
00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:08,279
by brock Purty. They did a pick six in the

661
00:31:08,279 --> 00:31:11,160
first play of the game, but they're doing that every week.

662
00:31:11,200 --> 00:31:13,759
This is the defense that's loaded with playmakers. That being said,

663
00:31:13,759 --> 00:31:15,440
they couldn't get stops on third down, they couln't get

664
00:31:15,440 --> 00:31:16,880
stops on fourth down, they couldn't get stop in the

665
00:31:16,920 --> 00:31:19,759
red zone, and they came basically, you know, that was

666
00:31:19,799 --> 00:31:21,960
a wild back and forth game where they came two

667
00:31:22,039 --> 00:31:26,000
yards away from maybe winning the NFC. I do wonder

668
00:31:26,039 --> 00:31:29,319
about Chicago's motivation here, clearly sort of the betting markets.

669
00:31:29,319 --> 00:31:30,920
With the Bears only late in two and a half,

670
00:31:31,039 --> 00:31:34,319
I would expect Johnson and company the name starters and oh,

671
00:31:34,319 --> 00:31:37,039
by the way, to sit some starters. And by the way,

672
00:31:37,039 --> 00:31:39,079
the first winning between the two teams this year was

673
00:31:39,079 --> 00:31:43,400
probably the best game the Lions played with you know,

674
00:31:43,640 --> 00:31:47,920
they annihilated Chicago. Different story now, obviously late in the season,

675
00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:52,160
but I'm playing outdoors. But when it comes to a

676
00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:54,920
team that appears to match up well with another one.

677
00:31:55,119 --> 00:31:58,400
Detroit has matched up well with the Bears of Late Teddy.

678
00:31:58,440 --> 00:32:01,720
Speaker 2: I'm just gonna let you talk about this Jets defense

679
00:32:01,759 --> 00:32:03,279
that you already alluded.

680
00:32:02,839 --> 00:32:05,079
Speaker 1: To and how poor they are.

681
00:32:05,160 --> 00:32:07,759
Speaker 2: But you know what it looked really poor yesterday was

682
00:32:07,799 --> 00:32:12,640
the Bills offensively. I was not impressed at all with

683
00:32:12,759 --> 00:32:15,400
that team. Is that more of a testament to the

684
00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:18,440
Eagles defense or was it just a really bad off

685
00:32:18,519 --> 00:32:19,559
game for the Bills.

686
00:32:19,920 --> 00:32:21,680
Speaker 3: Well, the fact that there was a forty mile a

687
00:32:21,759 --> 00:32:24,160
hour win and there was sleep driving everyone's face certainly

688
00:32:24,200 --> 00:32:27,359
had something to do with you, You know, the offensive

689
00:32:28,480 --> 00:32:32,000
struggles for Buffalo, and Buffalo did everything right to win

690
00:32:32,039 --> 00:32:34,440
the game at the end. Josh Allen is just human.

691
00:32:34,519 --> 00:32:36,839
He missed a pass that they'll make. You know, Josh

692
00:32:36,880 --> 00:32:39,200
Allen hits that two point conversion pass. I don't know

693
00:32:39,200 --> 00:32:41,160
about ninety nine out of one hundred, but ninety five

694
00:32:41,200 --> 00:32:42,720
out of one hundred, they'll hit that pass. You just

695
00:32:42,720 --> 00:32:44,559
missed it yesterday at the end of it, I mean,

696
00:32:44,799 --> 00:32:48,000
and afterwards he was passed. They kept on the cameras

697
00:32:48,079 --> 00:32:49,920
kept on flashing, and Josh Allen the bench, and they

698
00:32:50,160 --> 00:32:52,200
kept on dropping f bombs every time they flashed, and

699
00:32:52,319 --> 00:32:56,240
they don't flash over. They flashed two minutes later. You

700
00:32:56,240 --> 00:32:58,200
know he was really he was kicking stuff and you

701
00:32:58,240 --> 00:33:00,839
want your quarterback that man. I liked it. I like

702
00:33:00,880 --> 00:33:05,400
that competitive fire from Josh Jallen powering number Bills minus seventeen.

703
00:33:06,079 --> 00:33:08,640
It's ball game against the Jets. Got the Jets power

704
00:33:08,680 --> 00:33:14,319
rated pretty low right now. The market's open eleven eleven,

705
00:33:14,319 --> 00:33:17,200
eleven and a half and forty last night nothing but

706
00:33:17,319 --> 00:33:19,440
Jets money. We're seeing eight and a halfs now thirty

707
00:33:19,519 --> 00:33:21,319
nine and a half. We don't know what we're gonna

708
00:33:21,319 --> 00:33:23,759
see from the Bills this week. I know we're gonna

709
00:33:23,759 --> 00:33:25,279
see from the Jets. And that's a defense that just

710
00:33:25,319 --> 00:33:27,640
can't get stops, you know. I mean they fired defense

711
00:33:27,720 --> 00:33:29,880
warner Steve Wilks. And it doesn't matter. You have a

712
00:33:29,920 --> 00:33:32,599
touchdowns in the first six series. Yesterday, you have a

713
00:33:32,599 --> 00:33:34,480
touchdown in the first three series. I believe each of

714
00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:38,599
the previous three games. Aaron Glenn quote. I always talk

715
00:33:38,640 --> 00:33:40,400
about it. We come out and play with effort. Today

716
00:33:40,480 --> 00:33:41,839
was probably the one time I feel like I ever

717
00:33:41,960 --> 00:33:43,279
wasn't as good as I would want it to be.

718
00:33:43,759 --> 00:33:46,359
And that's just me. Not bsing you guys. Of course,

719
00:33:46,359 --> 00:33:50,119
there's rumors swirling about Glenn's job security right now. The

720
00:33:50,240 --> 00:33:55,279
Jets have been outscored by one hundred and seven points

721
00:33:55,319 --> 00:33:58,920
in December, all four losses coming by at least twenty

722
00:33:58,960 --> 00:34:02,279
three points, only the second team in the Super Bowl

723
00:34:02,359 --> 00:34:05,559
era to lose four straight games by twenty three points

724
00:34:05,599 --> 00:34:08,800
or more. They joined the nineteen seventy two New England

725
00:34:08,800 --> 00:34:10,639
Patriots in that regard. I think they were the Boston

726
00:34:10,679 --> 00:34:13,880
Patriots back then. You know, they've had two straight season

727
00:34:13,880 --> 00:34:15,719
with multiple losing streaks of at least four games. They're

728
00:34:15,719 --> 00:34:18,079
playing with an undrafted rookie free agent as their quarterback.

729
00:34:18,480 --> 00:34:21,920
I'm not expecting the Jets in Week eighteen to show

730
00:34:21,960 --> 00:34:27,440
up play great game. That being said, the Patriots, you know,

731
00:34:27,960 --> 00:34:31,199
I mean, there's sorry the Bills. They clinched the playoff

732
00:34:31,199 --> 00:34:33,280
berth already. They dropped to the number seven seed when

733
00:34:33,320 --> 00:34:35,000
the fourth quarter rally went shorge. They were shut off

734
00:34:35,039 --> 00:34:39,039
for fifty five minutes yesterday. You know, Josh Allen Coote,

735
00:34:39,039 --> 00:34:40,480
it just comes down to I was executing making one

736
00:34:40,519 --> 00:34:42,800
more play than they did. Obviously, we saw that we

737
00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:45,599
didn't make that last play. I didn't make that last play.

738
00:34:45,599 --> 00:34:48,320
At least he took it on himself worth noting, lots

739
00:34:48,360 --> 00:34:50,400
of injuries for Buffalo and they're gonna be starting the

740
00:34:50,400 --> 00:34:54,559
postseason on the road, you know, Terrelle Bernard got hurt,

741
00:34:55,119 --> 00:34:58,000
the Kwan Jones and Jordan Phillips and Jordan poyerd didn't play,

742
00:34:58,280 --> 00:35:02,119
Dalton Kincaid missed another game. Anyone who's got any lingering

743
00:35:02,159 --> 00:35:04,960
injuries for Buffalo is likely to sit in this ballgame.

744
00:35:05,320 --> 00:35:07,760
Next week's game a thousand times more important than this

745
00:35:07,800 --> 00:35:10,559
week's game. So if the Jets have anything in them,

746
00:35:10,639 --> 00:35:12,960
And again, why are we seeing Jets money from eleven

747
00:35:12,960 --> 00:35:14,920
and a half down eight and a half because Buffalo

748
00:35:14,960 --> 00:35:19,159
ain't got nothing to play for. And in theory, in theory,

749
00:35:19,880 --> 00:35:25,639
if Aaron Glenn wants this job again next year, it's

750
00:35:25,679 --> 00:35:27,360
supposed to be a spot where the Jets show up.

751
00:35:28,760 --> 00:35:32,760
Speaker 2: Okay, don't tease the Buffalo Bills. That's what I heard

752
00:35:32,840 --> 00:35:36,639
from Teddy right there. Can't help myself sometimes, All right,

753
00:35:36,719 --> 00:35:37,880
let's keep this.

754
00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:38,719
Speaker 1: One moving along.

755
00:35:38,800 --> 00:35:42,000
Speaker 2: And the NFL could not have scripted this one better.

756
00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:48,360
The Ravens taking on the Steelers for the AFC North

757
00:35:48,480 --> 00:35:50,199
in a coveted playoff spot.

758
00:35:50,760 --> 00:35:51,760
Speaker 1: Kind of funny.

759
00:35:51,440 --> 00:35:53,920
Speaker 2: How this one ended up playing out for a raven

760
00:35:53,960 --> 00:35:57,880
team that has just been decimated all season long, Teddy,

761
00:35:58,599 --> 00:36:01,920
I don't know what to make of this Ravens team

762
00:36:02,119 --> 00:36:04,000
for a better part of the season. I was frustrated

763
00:36:04,039 --> 00:36:06,320
if I had money on them. I did end up

764
00:36:06,480 --> 00:36:09,679
teasing them, of course, versus the Packers, and they ran

765
00:36:10,039 --> 00:36:12,559
Derrick Henry. Just seems so easy.

766
00:36:12,800 --> 00:36:15,760
Speaker 1: Just run Derek and you're gonna win football games.

767
00:36:17,639 --> 00:36:21,039
Speaker 3: My powering number is Baltimore minus one. At Pittsburgh. The

768
00:36:21,119 --> 00:36:24,039
markets open three and forty two and a half last night,

769
00:36:24,599 --> 00:36:27,639
we're seeing today three and a half popping up. We're

770
00:36:27,639 --> 00:36:30,440
seeing threes with juices. There is a lot of support

771
00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:34,599
for the Ravens, even though my powering number says it

772
00:36:34,599 --> 00:36:37,199
should like you should be looking at the Pittsburgh side

773
00:36:37,280 --> 00:36:40,800
of this equation. Why the support for Baltimore. Lamar Jackson

774
00:36:40,880 --> 00:36:42,639
is expected to play. He got ruled out just for

775
00:36:42,679 --> 00:36:46,320
a kickoff on Saturday, but Lamar Jackson is supposed to

776
00:36:46,320 --> 00:36:49,559
be back for this one. Derrick Henry thirty six for

777
00:36:49,599 --> 00:36:53,400
two sixteen. That's a shitload of carries for late December

778
00:36:53,920 --> 00:36:57,960
and his career high in that regard. Do you want

779
00:36:58,000 --> 00:37:00,760
your aging running back off of thirty six effort this

780
00:37:00,840 --> 00:37:03,119
late in the year. You know, Ravens coach John Harbaugh

781
00:37:03,199 --> 00:37:06,079
quote one of the greatest performances they've ever seen. You know,

782
00:37:06,119 --> 00:37:08,519
they had thirty first downs, ten or fourteen on third downs,

783
00:37:08,519 --> 00:37:10,639
plus two in turnovers. Their sports are gonna win that game.

784
00:37:11,039 --> 00:37:13,320
The defense for Baltimore, by the way, still all out

785
00:37:13,360 --> 00:37:17,280
eight point two yards per play. That's not good. As

786
00:37:17,280 --> 00:37:19,719
for Pittsburgh, though I wrote this, I wrote hit in

787
00:37:19,719 --> 00:37:21,719
my note from the Steelers Jess Say quote, remember this

788
00:37:21,800 --> 00:37:25,360
for the playoffs if necessary. Aaron Rodgers in Cole versus

789
00:37:25,360 --> 00:37:28,400
a good pass rush is bet against quarterback four point

790
00:37:28,440 --> 00:37:30,440
three yards per play against versus Cleveland, he got only

791
00:37:30,440 --> 00:37:33,840
sacked twice, But Aaron Rodgers wasn't interested in being hit.

792
00:37:34,360 --> 00:37:36,400
Was the ex actually hanging tough in the pocket. And

793
00:37:36,519 --> 00:37:39,199
right now they're without DK Metcalf. You know he's got

794
00:37:39,199 --> 00:37:41,920
the two game suspension. The tight end Darnold Washington has

795
00:37:41,920 --> 00:37:45,599
been a monster for Rodgers and the Steelers passing game.

796
00:37:45,920 --> 00:37:48,639
He broke his arm last week or yesterday. He's not

797
00:37:48,679 --> 00:37:52,039
gonna play. Calvin Austin's got a hamstering issue. He's sitting.

798
00:37:52,400 --> 00:37:55,079
You know, he had Marcus Valdez Scantling and Adam Thielen,

799
00:37:55,119 --> 00:37:57,920
two guys that can't separate when they're the number three

800
00:37:58,000 --> 00:38:02,239
receiver that we're trying to separate yesterday, and obviously they

801
00:38:02,239 --> 00:38:05,519
struggled in the passing game. Oer for three on fourth downs.

802
00:38:05,719 --> 00:38:08,960
Mike Tomlin quote, I don't think we played poorly. I

803
00:38:08,960 --> 00:38:10,480
thought the game was kind of unfolding in a way

804
00:38:10,480 --> 00:38:12,599
that you would anticipate, but we never made that signature

805
00:38:12,639 --> 00:38:16,119
play that kind of got us over the hump. Aaron

806
00:38:16,199 --> 00:38:18,880
Rodgers quote, I have full confidence we'll go home and

807
00:38:18,920 --> 00:38:22,000
win next week. We've handled diversity well and we've had

808
00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:25,119
to play our best ball. We did other than today,

809
00:38:25,679 --> 00:38:29,280
so you know, Pittsburgh's confident. Rodgers is someone who I've

810
00:38:29,280 --> 00:38:33,599
got my concerns about. But Baltimore the markets part of

811
00:38:33,599 --> 00:38:35,440
my expresion. The markets had a hard run for Baltimore

812
00:38:35,480 --> 00:38:38,159
all year. It had a nice little payoff for them

813
00:38:38,199 --> 00:38:41,440
mid season. But this number to me feels a little

814
00:38:41,440 --> 00:38:41,960
bit high.

815
00:38:42,239 --> 00:38:42,480
Speaker 1: Yeah.

816
00:38:42,519 --> 00:38:45,440
Speaker 2: I mean, listen, Teddy, of course they have Baltimore was

817
00:38:45,519 --> 00:38:47,960
right up there in the mix to win the Super Bowl.

818
00:38:48,039 --> 00:38:53,119
Yet again, we expect those postseason pitfalls from this team,

819
00:38:53,199 --> 00:38:54,760
not in October.

820
00:38:55,280 --> 00:38:58,679
Speaker 1: I don't know. I get why Ariel Epstein is reeling

821
00:38:58,800 --> 00:38:59,599
right now.

822
00:38:59,360 --> 00:39:04,800
Speaker 2: But that team is very frustrating, especially from a well,

823
00:39:04,920 --> 00:39:07,480
we'll call it is a favorite perspective, Teddy. Before we

824
00:39:07,599 --> 00:39:10,440
keep it going in the AFC North, let everybody know

825
00:39:10,960 --> 00:39:14,679
what to expect from you to partner up throughout the

826
00:39:14,719 --> 00:39:20,360
rest of the NFL season. We've got Week eighteen, we've

827
00:39:20,400 --> 00:39:22,599
got the playoffs. Of course, we've got the super Bowl.

828
00:39:22,639 --> 00:39:24,639
We're gonna be right here on the Wager Talking YouTube

829
00:39:24,719 --> 00:39:25,920
channel every single.

830
00:39:25,639 --> 00:39:26,639
Speaker 1: Monday with you guys.

831
00:39:26,840 --> 00:39:29,599
Speaker 2: But Teddy, what what should people that are looking to

832
00:39:29,599 --> 00:39:30,800
partner up with you expect?

833
00:39:30,800 --> 00:39:31,119
Speaker 1: Are you?

834
00:39:31,639 --> 00:39:34,159
Speaker 2: Do you have like a certain are you giving out

835
00:39:34,199 --> 00:39:35,519
a futures bet? Do you have a certain thing you

836
00:39:35,639 --> 00:39:37,719
like to look for in the playoffs? Kind of break

837
00:39:37,760 --> 00:39:40,039
it down so that if people want to join you,

838
00:39:40,159 --> 00:39:41,199
they know what they're gonna get.

839
00:39:42,079 --> 00:39:44,280
Speaker 3: It's real simple, all right. What are you gonna get

840
00:39:45,159 --> 00:39:47,480
is sides and totals every week. You know, I'm not

841
00:39:47,519 --> 00:39:48,920
a huge prop guy. If you want a bunch of

842
00:39:48,920 --> 00:39:51,559
props to bet, there are certainly other great opportunities, other

843
00:39:51,599 --> 00:39:54,519
great guys that do that. Wager talk lots of good

844
00:39:54,559 --> 00:39:57,400
choices in that regard. I use sides, I do totals.

845
00:39:57,440 --> 00:40:00,519
That's my area of expertise in the NFL leans on

846
00:40:00,559 --> 00:40:02,000
some of the props, and I might mention that with

847
00:40:02,039 --> 00:40:04,000
the right up and of course you get the detailed analysis.

848
00:40:04,000 --> 00:40:08,840
And for many betters, the reason that they win or

849
00:40:08,840 --> 00:40:10,760
lose they like me because the guy, you know, the

850
00:40:10,760 --> 00:40:12,840
thought process is there at all the write ups and

851
00:40:12,880 --> 00:40:14,880
you understand that this is how Teddy's thinking, this is why,

852
00:40:14,920 --> 00:40:16,840
and it helps them train their mind in terms of

853
00:40:16,840 --> 00:40:20,119
how they want to create their own thought processes as

854
00:40:20,119 --> 00:40:23,719
a handicapper. So and again we've been running real good

855
00:40:24,480 --> 00:40:27,960
here in December. I'm seventy one percent in the NFL

856
00:40:28,000 --> 00:40:29,760
over the last four weeks, seventy one percent over the

857
00:40:29,840 --> 00:40:32,360
last eight weeks. In NFL Sundays, the balls have been

858
00:40:32,400 --> 00:40:35,360
good six and one with the College Bulls in twenty

859
00:40:35,400 --> 00:40:37,440
twenty five. The NBA has been good seventy three percent

860
00:40:37,480 --> 00:40:39,000
over the last ten days and number one at Rage

861
00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:41,440
of Talk dating all the way back to twenty twenty two.

862
00:40:41,760 --> 00:40:44,199
The college hoops has been pretty good of late. So

863
00:40:44,320 --> 00:40:46,519
I recommend an all access pass. You get a three

864
00:40:46,599 --> 00:40:47,840
day you can get a seven day, you can get

865
00:40:47,840 --> 00:40:49,599
a thirty day, you can sign up for the whole

866
00:40:49,719 --> 00:40:51,559
there's a griff. You want to partner up for real.

867
00:40:51,880 --> 00:40:55,079
There's an unbelievable deal right now for a full year

868
00:40:55,840 --> 00:40:57,840
where you're gonna get every play, every day, every sport.

869
00:40:58,920 --> 00:41:01,079
For what's the price on that? I mean, it's just ridiculous.

we appreciate the comments, the likes, and the follows when

880
00:41:28,920 --> 00:41:31,800
it comes to this show. Like Kelly said, we'll be

881
00:41:31,840 --> 00:41:34,280
going right through through the super Bowl and the Monday

882
00:41:34,320 --> 00:41:35,760
after the super Bowl is the most fun show of all.

883
00:41:35,760 --> 00:41:37,360
Could be looking at the futures for next year and

884
00:41:37,400 --> 00:41:38,599
create all the props.

885
00:41:39,039 --> 00:41:41,360
Speaker 2: Teddy I know we're trying to get through week eighteen,

886
00:41:41,480 --> 00:41:42,960
but now you got me in triggued.

887
00:41:42,960 --> 00:41:46,840
Speaker 1: Do you have any futures pending left.

888
00:41:46,880 --> 00:41:48,800
Speaker 3: For anything we see the wins?

889
00:41:49,400 --> 00:41:51,679
Speaker 1: No super Bowl futures, no nothing, correct.

890
00:41:52,199 --> 00:41:54,519
Speaker 3: I think I've got some division title stuff I have

891
00:41:54,519 --> 00:41:56,159
to look at. I didn't look at it last night.

892
00:41:56,920 --> 00:42:01,119
But the futures that I bet or I never. I

893
00:42:01,159 --> 00:42:03,800
don't like the bets that one team wins and thirty

894
00:42:03,800 --> 00:42:06,840
one teams lose, all right, I don't like those bets.

895
00:42:06,840 --> 00:42:08,960
I like the bet where it's two choices.

896
00:42:09,199 --> 00:42:11,760
Speaker 1: You know, it makes sense to me.

897
00:42:12,079 --> 00:42:17,039
Speaker 2: Let's stay in the AFC North brown Shooter Sanders two

898
00:42:17,079 --> 00:42:20,199
interceptions yesterday, but they got the job done.

899
00:42:20,440 --> 00:42:23,760
Speaker 1: Bengals. Are we gonna see Joe Burrow for four quarters here?

900
00:42:24,440 --> 00:42:26,480
Speaker 3: So the Marcus don't? The market seem to think so?

901
00:42:28,000 --> 00:42:30,360
And I from the quotes yesterday, I thought so. Two

902
00:42:31,000 --> 00:42:33,679
my priworing numbers since he minus eight, the markets opened

903
00:42:33,719 --> 00:42:35,519
seven and forty four and a half last night. We're

904
00:42:35,519 --> 00:42:38,079
seeing seven and a half's out there and forty five today,

905
00:42:38,079 --> 00:42:40,440
and those are Joe Burrow is gonna play type of

906
00:42:40,519 --> 00:42:43,320
numbers you talk about, you do or Standers? Sanders was

907
00:42:43,360 --> 00:42:45,320
this good or better than Aaron Rodgers yesterday? You know,

908
00:42:45,400 --> 00:42:47,280
the offfensive line kent open holes for the running game.

909
00:42:47,320 --> 00:42:49,559
They had won rushing first down all day, and I

910
00:42:49,599 --> 00:42:52,440
think that came in a Sanders scramble. But they still

911
00:42:52,440 --> 00:42:54,679
won the game, which is a credit to their defense

912
00:42:55,840 --> 00:42:58,800
and the credit to not screwing up too much even

913
00:42:58,800 --> 00:43:02,599
with the standers two pick his quote. It felt good

914
00:43:02,599 --> 00:43:05,280
getting win overall, especially with the team we won against.

915
00:43:05,440 --> 00:43:07,679
I think it's been bittersweet because I feel like the

916
00:43:07,679 --> 00:43:09,760
offense we got to do our part. I got to

917
00:43:09,800 --> 00:43:11,920
do my part a bit more. I can't be happy

918
00:43:12,159 --> 00:43:14,679
with only thirteen points on the board. It's a mature

919
00:43:14,760 --> 00:43:17,599
quote in that regard. That's for Cincinnati. I mean Chase

920
00:43:17,639 --> 00:43:19,760
Brown one hundred yards rushing, Joe Burrow three hundred yards

921
00:43:19,760 --> 00:43:22,519
passing thirty seven points. This is what this offense was

922
00:43:22,519 --> 00:43:25,199
supposed to look like. Same story in the Miami game

923
00:43:25,400 --> 00:43:28,360
the previous week. You know, this offense scored thirty plus

924
00:43:28,400 --> 00:43:30,360
for the last five weeks. They just said that one

925
00:43:30,360 --> 00:43:32,239
shot out of Baltimore that kind of ruined their season.

926
00:43:32,760 --> 00:43:35,239
You know, twenty nine to twelve, first down edge, five

927
00:43:35,280 --> 00:43:39,079
to five in the red zone, forty one minutes of possession.

928
00:43:39,280 --> 00:43:41,440
I mean, what's the most frustrating as a better you hate?

929
00:43:41,480 --> 00:43:44,239
This makes me crazy. You're stopping first down, you're stopping

930
00:43:44,239 --> 00:43:45,599
second down, and then you can't get off the field

931
00:43:45,599 --> 00:43:49,320
and third and long, you know not different coaches and

932
00:43:49,360 --> 00:43:51,079
since the ten to fifteen on third down, one on

933
00:43:51,159 --> 00:43:54,760
one on fourth down, Zach Taylor quote, he's playing like

934
00:43:54,800 --> 00:43:57,239
I know Joe to play. It's fun to watch. We

935
00:43:57,320 --> 00:44:00,480
all just want to finish the season the right way.

936
00:44:01,360 --> 00:44:03,119
Last year, the Bengals were four and eight. They closed

937
00:44:03,119 --> 00:44:04,880
out the season on a five game winning streak to

938
00:44:04,880 --> 00:44:07,480
finish nine and eight. This year, the Bengals were four

939
00:44:07,519 --> 00:44:10,199
and ten. They won back to back games, and they

940
00:44:10,199 --> 00:44:12,199
appear to be very interested in this one. I do

941
00:44:12,239 --> 00:44:15,320
expect Burrow to suit up, so to the betting markets.

942
00:44:16,320 --> 00:44:16,880
Speaker 1: There we go.

943
00:44:17,000 --> 00:44:19,119
Speaker 2: I got the answer I needed, and that means I

944
00:44:19,320 --> 00:44:22,039
have permission to tease the Cincinnati Bengals.

945
00:44:22,079 --> 00:44:24,800
Speaker 1: He didn't say it, guys, but I know that's what

946
00:44:24,840 --> 00:44:25,280
that means.

947
00:44:25,400 --> 00:44:29,119
Speaker 2: Let's go to the Dallas Cowboys at the New York Giants.

948
00:44:29,760 --> 00:44:32,599
Cowboys got it done on Christmas at least, and the

949
00:44:32,679 --> 00:44:35,199
teasers that back door was open and that was like

950
00:44:35,199 --> 00:44:38,679
a sleep sleepwalking second half. As I mentioned, the New

951
00:44:38,760 --> 00:44:42,360
York Giants went to Las Vegas, and you know, I

952
00:44:42,360 --> 00:44:43,880
got a text from Buddy and he's like, Kelly, one

953
00:44:43,920 --> 00:44:46,199
quarterback here cares and the other doesn't.

954
00:44:46,719 --> 00:44:47,639
Speaker 1: I gotta would agree with that.

955
00:44:47,760 --> 00:44:50,559
Speaker 2: Jackson Dark showed that he cared yesterday. He wants to

956
00:44:50,599 --> 00:44:53,000
win for his team. They didn't care that the New

957
00:44:53,079 --> 00:44:56,519
York Giants wonted the overall pick. But I don't know,

958
00:44:56,679 --> 00:44:59,800
talk to me about this one here. The Cowboys essentially

959
00:44:59,800 --> 00:45:02,079
not to play for the New York Giants, definitely nothing

960
00:45:02,079 --> 00:45:02,519
to play for.

961
00:45:03,519 --> 00:45:06,480
Speaker 3: Look, sorry, my powering number has Dallas minus three and

962
00:45:06,519 --> 00:45:08,960
a half. The market's opened five slash five and a

963
00:45:08,960 --> 00:45:12,320
half and fifty two last night. Looking at the Odds

964
00:45:12,360 --> 00:45:14,719
logic live outstream right now, I'm seeing five and a half,

965
00:45:14,960 --> 00:45:17,639
a couple of five still out there, fifty two and

966
00:45:17,639 --> 00:45:23,119
a half the prevailing total. Dak Prescott, you know talking

967
00:45:23,119 --> 00:45:25,519
about you know, he got sex six times, got hurried

968
00:45:25,519 --> 00:45:28,239
eleven times by Washington, but first time all year, eating

969
00:45:28,239 --> 00:45:33,239
complete sixty percent of his passes. But from everything that

970
00:45:34,239 --> 00:45:38,039
Prescott's saying, quote, there's a big difference between finishing eight

971
00:45:38,159 --> 00:45:40,920
eight and one versus seven to nine in one. Not

972
00:45:40,960 --> 00:45:44,079
just for people that have Dallas futures. We talked about earlier.

973
00:45:44,719 --> 00:45:47,199
Dak Prescott quote, a lot of pride, and I think

974
00:45:47,239 --> 00:45:49,559
that's another reason I want to play in the season

975
00:45:49,880 --> 00:45:52,000
of me being healthy. I've never had in all my

976
00:45:52,079 --> 00:45:55,280
life career a season under five hundred. That tie is

977
00:45:55,320 --> 00:45:57,840
going to come into play. Really well, it's a huge difference.

978
00:45:57,920 --> 00:46:01,280
It's one of those things. It's just pride. It's pride. Honestly,

979
00:46:01,599 --> 00:46:04,679
winning helps everything. Just finishing off a win two of

980
00:46:04,719 --> 00:46:07,440
them would be great for us. Of course, Prescott's owned

981
00:46:07,440 --> 00:46:10,880
the Giants fourteen straight wins for Dallas. Against the g Men,

982
00:46:11,760 --> 00:46:14,960
they needed a overtime a sixty four yard field goals

983
00:46:14,960 --> 00:46:17,960
the course overtime when they won in Week two. But

984
00:46:18,159 --> 00:46:21,440
Dallas it certainly appears to take this game seriously. And

985
00:46:21,519 --> 00:46:23,079
of course, the Cowboys coming off a game where they

986
00:46:23,119 --> 00:46:25,079
ran eighty seven off of the plays to forty one

987
00:46:26,239 --> 00:46:31,880
for opponents for the Washington that ballgame. Brian Schottenheimer quote,

988
00:46:31,960 --> 00:46:34,480
I never worry about these guys effort. I really don't.

989
00:46:34,679 --> 00:46:36,599
These guys are built differently, man. I had no question

990
00:46:36,599 --> 00:46:38,280
we come up and play hard. I thought, we're hitting

991
00:46:38,320 --> 00:46:42,239
on all similars offensively early on. The markets expect Dallas

992
00:46:42,239 --> 00:46:45,199
to show up, play hard in this ballgame, like three

993
00:46:45,360 --> 00:46:47,079
in a row. I was reading these Jackson Dark quotes

994
00:46:47,079 --> 00:46:48,920
about how we never had a losing streak like this,

995
00:46:49,000 --> 00:46:50,760
and every week he said he wanted to win a game.

996
00:46:50,800 --> 00:46:52,840
And now yesterday they won a game. You know, Mike

997
00:46:52,880 --> 00:46:55,599
Kafka got his first win as an interim head coach.

998
00:46:55,880 --> 00:46:57,280
They had one hundred and fifty five yards in the

999
00:46:57,320 --> 00:46:59,679
ground and no turnovers. Defense had four sacks. I'll give

1000
00:46:59,719 --> 00:47:04,719
up ten points. That's how you win. That being said,

1001
00:47:05,199 --> 00:47:07,559
now they're coming off of wins, this exhale spot for

1002
00:47:07,639 --> 00:47:10,360
the g men. The markets seemed to think, so nothing

1003
00:47:10,400 --> 00:47:12,679
but Dallas money. And again my powering number says three

1004
00:47:12,679 --> 00:47:13,920
and a half. The marketers are at five and a

1005
00:47:13,960 --> 00:47:16,559
half here. And still even with that discrepancy, I can

1006
00:47:16,599 --> 00:47:18,920
only look at the Dallas side of the equation.

1007
00:47:19,239 --> 00:47:23,559
Speaker 2: All right, Commanders at the Eagles, I mentioned the Commanders, well,

1008
00:47:24,000 --> 00:47:26,639
had a fighting shot there in the second half of

1009
00:47:26,639 --> 00:47:30,960
that game on Christmas also Eagles. I thought it was

1010
00:47:31,000 --> 00:47:33,119
a crazy second half. I'll just leave it at that. Teddy,

1011
00:47:33,239 --> 00:47:35,159
there was a stack going around. That was basically like

1012
00:47:35,400 --> 00:47:38,320
Jalen Hurts did not complete a pass and they still

1013
00:47:38,480 --> 00:47:39,280
won the game.

1014
00:47:41,000 --> 00:47:44,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, powering number here is. I'm sorry we were at

1015
00:47:44,400 --> 00:47:47,519
Washington Philly, but I got Philly minus twelve as a

1016
00:47:47,559 --> 00:47:49,559
powering number. The marketers at seven and a half and

1017
00:47:49,599 --> 00:47:51,960
forty two and a half last night, and we're seeing

1018
00:47:52,000 --> 00:47:55,880
eight and eight and a half and nines as we speak,

1019
00:47:55,880 --> 00:47:59,559
even nine and a half in prominent global books. So

1020
00:47:59,760 --> 00:48:02,679
there has been Philly money that makes it closer to

1021
00:48:02,719 --> 00:48:08,320
my priory number than the initial number. Initial align on

1022
00:48:08,360 --> 00:48:10,079
this boggame. And I think it has to do with

1023
00:48:10,119 --> 00:48:12,400
nobody wants but peop look concerned about Washington. You know

1024
00:48:12,440 --> 00:48:15,599
what again, Dallas ran eighty seven plays Washington ran forty one.

1025
00:48:18,079 --> 00:48:21,079
You know that's that's the Washington defense. Doves get extra rest.

1026
00:48:21,079 --> 00:48:25,159
They played Thursday on Christmas Day, and you know, with

1027
00:48:25,320 --> 00:48:29,159
Josh Johnson a tenth career start, first since twenty twenty one,

1028
00:48:29,679 --> 00:48:33,360
they moved to football Debo's playing, mclaurin's playing to Ja

1029
00:48:33,400 --> 00:48:35,599
Cory Krosky Merritt's playing. They gave eight point six yards

1030
00:48:35,639 --> 00:48:38,800
per carry. You know that's not quick teams type of number.

1031
00:48:38,920 --> 00:48:40,960
Of course, that might have something to do with Dallas's defense.

1032
00:48:41,719 --> 00:48:44,000
That being said, I mean the Phillies Eagles didn't get

1033
00:48:44,039 --> 00:48:46,840
twenty yards of offense in the second half on the

1034
00:48:46,880 --> 00:48:49,880
road versus Super Bowl contender the week after Clinton Division title.

1035
00:48:49,920 --> 00:48:52,840
They had won first down in five punts after halftime,

1036
00:48:53,719 --> 00:48:56,360
but they still won the game. It still speaks vous

1037
00:48:56,400 --> 00:48:58,639
about the defense. And when we're looking at this year

1038
00:48:58,679 --> 00:49:01,039
where many of the top content have been eliminated or

1039
00:49:01,039 --> 00:49:03,960
don't look as good, Phillies are defending champs. Man, they

1040
00:49:04,000 --> 00:49:07,239
deserve to be Super Bowl favorites. They must be the

1041
00:49:07,239 --> 00:49:08,719
super Bowl favorite or the team, you know, with the

1042
00:49:08,760 --> 00:49:12,199
lowest odds going to the postseason. Nick Sirianni quote, winnings

1043
00:49:12,239 --> 00:49:13,880
hard in this league. I'm always going to enjoy a

1044
00:49:13,960 --> 00:49:18,599
win nine to zero straight up. This season went Hurts

1045
00:49:18,760 --> 00:49:22,119
throws for fewer than two hundred yards. It tells us

1046
00:49:22,119 --> 00:49:24,480
the last thing Philly wants to do is be in shootouts,

1047
00:49:24,840 --> 00:49:30,920
and yesterday's game certainly wasn't that. That being said, how

1048
00:49:31,000 --> 00:49:34,519
much the Eagles have to play for this week, We'll see.

1049
00:49:35,480 --> 00:49:38,159
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm a little nervous because in my splash contest

1050
00:49:38,559 --> 00:49:41,400
I have them available for survivor and I'm thinking, Oh,

1051
00:49:41,440 --> 00:49:43,880
I don't know if I really want to use that

1052
00:49:44,000 --> 00:49:48,360
team or not. Saints been rocking and rolling Teddy since

1053
00:49:48,400 --> 00:49:50,840
you and I spoke about them on the show. Titans

1054
00:49:51,280 --> 00:49:54,199
yesterday could not get it down with a valiant effort.

1055
00:49:54,440 --> 00:49:56,920
They now take on the Falcons, who played tonight on

1056
00:49:56,920 --> 00:49:57,760
Monday Night Football.

1057
00:49:58,119 --> 00:50:01,079
Speaker 3: Yeah, powering number here is Atlanta minus two. I saw

1058
00:50:01,159 --> 00:50:03,920
two and a half and forty threes out there last night.

1059
00:50:04,599 --> 00:50:09,239
Obviously Atlanta plays this evening, so how the Falcons look

1060
00:50:09,280 --> 00:50:12,639
tonight is likely to affect where this what direction this

1061
00:50:12,679 --> 00:50:16,039
point spread moves between now and kickoff. You know, there's

1062
00:50:16,079 --> 00:50:18,199
no path for Atlanta to win the NFC South even

1063
00:50:18,280 --> 00:50:20,360
they win the last two games. There's six and nine.

1064
00:50:20,400 --> 00:50:24,199
They're currently sitting in the number twelve seed. Panthers and

1065
00:50:24,199 --> 00:50:26,480
the Bucks tie. Carolina still wins it with any tiebreaker,

1066
00:50:26,719 --> 00:50:28,800
and they have the better divisional record than Atlanta. So

1067
00:50:29,239 --> 00:50:32,199
it's playing out the string for the Falcons. Although I

1068
00:50:32,360 --> 00:50:34,280
only play out the string. You don't mind beating a

1069
00:50:34,280 --> 00:50:37,119
divisional opponent, but anysterious in the imagination. As for the Saints,

1070
00:50:37,159 --> 00:50:39,320
clients and I cast a five percent big ticket with

1071
00:50:39,360 --> 00:50:41,760
New Orleans yesterday. It was not the right side, but

1072
00:50:41,880 --> 00:50:44,800
it got there. They're playing and winning football two and

1073
00:50:44,880 --> 00:50:47,719
ten start now four and oh the last four. Yesterday

1074
00:50:47,760 --> 00:50:51,199
they came from behind to win on the road. Tyler

1075
00:50:51,239 --> 00:50:54,239
Shuck back to back three hundred yard games. Pro Bowl

1076
00:50:54,239 --> 00:50:56,719
stat line twenty two to twenty seven, three thirty three,

1077
00:50:57,000 --> 00:50:59,679
twelve point three yards per past, the two touchdowns, no picks.

1078
00:51:00,159 --> 00:51:03,039
The team on offense eight point one yards per play.

1079
00:51:03,079 --> 00:51:05,440
The defense allowed four point seven. They overcame a turnover

1080
00:51:05,679 --> 00:51:10,840
in the end zone. You know, Chase youngis sack fumble

1081
00:51:10,880 --> 00:51:14,480
six on camp Ward and it's working. I like the

1082
00:51:14,559 --> 00:51:16,599
quotes from the other team talking about the one team,

1083
00:51:17,119 --> 00:51:20,639
Titans guard Peter s Keronsky talking about the Saints as

1084
00:51:20,679 --> 00:51:23,039
an example of how to bounce back. Quote, they didn't

1085
00:51:23,039 --> 00:51:24,480
get down to themselves. They came back and moved the

1086
00:51:24,480 --> 00:51:26,599
football in the fourth quarner and got the lead. We've

1087
00:51:26,639 --> 00:51:29,239
got to be able to respond to that. Of course,

1088
00:51:29,320 --> 00:51:32,800
celto throwing Tennessee under the bus. But the Saints right

1089
00:51:32,840 --> 00:51:35,840
now are a team that's playing well above their power rating.

1090
00:51:35,840 --> 00:51:38,320
They have been for weeks, and who's been backing them

1091
00:51:38,639 --> 00:51:41,719
has been making good money with New Orleans.

1092
00:51:42,119 --> 00:51:45,199
Speaker 2: All right, A few more games to go. Let's hit on,

1093
00:51:46,440 --> 00:51:50,000
let me get my notes ready to go. Broncos, Chargers,

1094
00:51:50,199 --> 00:51:51,679
Teddy Cardinals.

1095
00:51:52,119 --> 00:51:55,960
Speaker 1: H yes, I'm sorry, Cardinals. Rams up next.

1096
00:51:56,159 --> 00:52:01,360
Speaker 2: Rams currently sitting at a six week Monday night football.

1097
00:52:01,480 --> 00:52:04,000
They play tonight. Now, what do they need to play

1098
00:52:04,039 --> 00:52:05,960
for against the Cardinals.

1099
00:52:06,440 --> 00:52:09,360
Speaker 3: So that's a good question. Well no, well no, after tonight?

1100
00:52:09,639 --> 00:52:12,679
Speaker 1: Got it? Okay? Confused? I apologize, guys.

1101
00:52:12,920 --> 00:52:15,599
Speaker 3: That's fine. My powering number again. Rams at full strength,

1102
00:52:15,639 --> 00:52:18,320
Carlo's at full strength is LA fifteen. The market's open

1103
00:52:18,440 --> 00:52:21,880
thirteen and a half and fifty last night thirteen and

1104
00:52:21,920 --> 00:52:24,920
a half. The markets went give me Arizona nine and

1105
00:52:24,960 --> 00:52:27,840
a half right now for LA And obviously we'll see

1106
00:52:28,400 --> 00:52:30,400
how much they have to play for based on the

1107
00:52:30,440 --> 00:52:32,639
results of tonight's ballgame, But the markets seem to think

1108
00:52:32,920 --> 00:52:36,519
win or lose, it's not a big issue for the

1109
00:52:36,639 --> 00:52:40,199
Rams next week. You know, they're currently the number six

1110
00:52:40,239 --> 00:52:43,559
seed because San Francisco won. There would be the fifth

1111
00:52:43,599 --> 00:52:45,840
seed if they lost, and the number five sheet is

1112
00:52:45,840 --> 00:52:48,719
worth something because then you get to face the Bucks

1113
00:52:48,760 --> 00:52:52,000
Panthers winner. That's the lowest ranked playoff team in either conference.

1114
00:52:52,320 --> 00:52:54,480
So the five set in the NFC is worth fighting for.

1115
00:52:54,599 --> 00:52:57,000
But again when we talk about players, players don't care.

1116
00:52:57,760 --> 00:53:00,440
They don't. That's for Arizona. I mean, thirteen carriers for

1117
00:53:00,440 --> 00:53:02,760
forty two yards per set got stacked four times. This

1118
00:53:02,800 --> 00:53:05,719
office of line isn't even holding up against Cincinnati, which

1119
00:53:05,760 --> 00:53:08,079
is bad news against la who's got a pretty good DL.

1120
00:53:09,559 --> 00:53:11,400
And again, you know they couldn't get stops on third down.

1121
00:53:11,400 --> 00:53:13,960
They couldn't get stops on fourth down. Fifth time in

1122
00:53:14,000 --> 00:53:16,480
the last eight games, all losses for Arizona. They'd give

1123
00:53:16,480 --> 00:53:19,440
it up thirty seven points or more. And the only

1124
00:53:19,480 --> 00:53:21,599
bright spot was Trey McBride said the NFL record for

1125
00:53:21,679 --> 00:53:24,000
most receptions by a tight end a single season, which

1126
00:53:24,039 --> 00:53:27,159
is worth nothing to the betting marketplace, no betting implications.

1127
00:53:27,280 --> 00:53:28,920
I shouldn't even mention it.

1128
00:53:29,639 --> 00:53:32,559
Speaker 2: All right, Broncos Chargers, Teddy, I know we're up against it.

1129
00:53:32,679 --> 00:53:35,719
Give me ninety seconds on this one.

1130
00:53:36,400 --> 00:53:39,800
Speaker 3: Powering number Denver minus two. The markets opened. There were

1131
00:53:39,840 --> 00:53:41,800
sevens last night, seven and a halfs. There were eight

1132
00:53:41,840 --> 00:53:44,480
and a half, there were six and a halfs. The

1133
00:53:44,519 --> 00:53:46,719
total was the thirty eight and a half, thirty nine,

1134
00:53:46,800 --> 00:53:48,639
thirty nine and a half, forty forty and a half.

1135
00:53:48,880 --> 00:53:50,800
When you see that type of variance on a Sunday night. Man,

1136
00:53:50,800 --> 00:53:53,360
it doesn't matter which side you like. Sometimes you just

1137
00:53:53,400 --> 00:53:56,400
make a bet like I could. Let's take them in

1138
00:53:56,480 --> 00:53:59,280
as the number. Now we're seeing seven and a half

1139
00:53:59,599 --> 00:54:03,960
eight out there for Denver, thirty nine to forty revealing total,

1140
00:54:04,000 --> 00:54:06,360
so there's still a favor of variance. You know, Denver

1141
00:54:06,760 --> 00:54:08,760
held Casey to three point three yards per play, one

1142
00:54:08,800 --> 00:54:11,000
hundred and thirty nine total yards, twenty minutes of possession.

1143
00:54:11,400 --> 00:54:16,239
You know, they won the NFC AFC West title already.

1144
00:54:16,760 --> 00:54:19,280
And for the Chargers, they got out game by more

1145
00:54:19,280 --> 00:54:20,960
than the yard per play. They had five red zone

1146
00:54:20,960 --> 00:54:22,719
trips on the score, two touchdowns. There's still seven to

1147
00:54:22,760 --> 00:54:27,199
two straight up their last nine, but lots of injuries

1148
00:54:27,280 --> 00:54:31,719
for La still and the markets not convinced. The Chargers

1149
00:54:31,719 --> 00:54:34,000
are going to be playing everyone in this game at Denver.

1150
00:54:34,119 --> 00:54:36,280
Denver neath this wind to lock up the number one seed.

1151
00:54:36,639 --> 00:54:38,880
The Chargers don't need it for anything. They need to

1152
00:54:38,880 --> 00:54:40,599
get held Denver.

1153
00:54:40,639 --> 00:54:43,519
Speaker 2: Broncos and Teasers, thank you for confirming that, Teddy Covers.

1154
00:54:43,599 --> 00:54:45,599
Speaker 1: Let's get this last game going.

1155
00:54:45,400 --> 00:54:49,119
Speaker 2: Here before Andy Lang and Dan Alexander here on wager

1156
00:54:49,280 --> 00:54:53,079
Talk today. Teddy Titans we mentioned try to put up

1157
00:54:53,119 --> 00:54:56,599
a valiant effort but failed. Jags get the win, but

1158
00:54:56,719 --> 00:54:59,119
no cover. No, I take that back. They did end

1159
00:54:59,199 --> 00:55:03,159
up covering late yesterday. That is right, Jacksonville lay in

1160
00:55:03,199 --> 00:55:04,000
a huge number here.

1161
00:55:04,000 --> 00:55:06,760
Speaker 3: Now, Yeah, if you had the Jags yesterday rather for two,

1162
00:55:06,800 --> 00:55:09,199
it is cover in that regard. He did not look

1163
00:55:09,239 --> 00:55:10,519
like you were the right side at any point in

1164
00:55:10,559 --> 00:55:13,760
that ball game until the end. My party number has

1165
00:55:13,760 --> 00:55:16,320
the Jags thirteen against the Titans. The markets are sitting

1166
00:55:16,320 --> 00:55:18,559
at eleven and a half, twelve, twelve and a half

1167
00:55:18,840 --> 00:55:22,440
right now, and of course the Jaggs enter Week eighteen

1168
00:55:22,639 --> 00:55:25,039
live for the number one seed in the AFC. Liam

1169
00:55:25,079 --> 00:55:27,159
Cohen is live for Coach of the Year. Could have

1170
00:55:27,199 --> 00:55:29,920
two first year coaches winning because Ben Johnson's probably live Chicago,

1171
00:55:30,119 --> 00:55:33,880
Rabel's probably gonna win, but still Liam Cohen is live

1172
00:55:33,920 --> 00:55:37,079
in that regard. Defense playing well three point seven yards

1173
00:55:37,079 --> 00:55:38,800
for play a while they forced two turnovers, they're not

1174
00:55:38,880 --> 00:55:41,039
two sacked. They ran the football on hundred yards on

1175
00:55:41,039 --> 00:55:42,960
the ground, but in the four yards per carry, and

1176
00:55:43,039 --> 00:55:45,000
Trevor Lawrence looks like the guy we thought he was

1177
00:55:45,000 --> 00:55:48,039
gonna be. His Jacke with an on overall pick his quote.

1178
00:55:48,440 --> 00:55:50,679
We're a very confident group. We feel like why not us,

1179
00:55:50,760 --> 00:55:52,719
feel like it should be us. We got to go

1180
00:55:52,760 --> 00:55:55,800
out and finish the job next week against Tennessee. It's

1181
00:55:55,840 --> 00:55:58,559
a huge game, a division game to win the AFC South.

1182
00:55:59,280 --> 00:56:00,840
We've got the CONFI I said, when we play well,

1183
00:56:00,840 --> 00:56:03,159
we can beat anyone who cares, who thinks who is

1184
00:56:03,159 --> 00:56:05,719
the best team. Wicks every chance to prove it, will

1185
00:56:05,719 --> 00:56:08,679
have our shot. Liam Cohen last quote. I know we're

1186
00:56:08,719 --> 00:56:10,000
running out of time, but I have to give this

1187
00:56:10,079 --> 00:56:14,239
quote quote. We haven't addressed making the playoffs as a team.

1188
00:56:14,639 --> 00:56:18,039
We haven't talked about goals, about the division, the conference,

1189
00:56:18,039 --> 00:56:20,519
the super Bowl, none of that. We're focused on being

1190
00:56:20,639 --> 00:56:23,960
one zero this week and keeping the mindset as singular

1191
00:56:24,400 --> 00:56:28,360
as we can. Those are bet On quotes for Jacksonville

1192
00:56:28,599 --> 00:56:30,960
against the bottom feeder the final week of the season.

1193
00:56:31,480 --> 00:56:34,440
Speaker 2: All right, Teddy Covers is the best at Teddy Underscore Covers.

1194
00:56:34,480 --> 00:56:37,039
You guys can see him tonight talking Monday Night Football
