discussed about, 40 00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:11,040 some stuff I may just not even fit in the show well. 41 00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:17,880 It'll definitely be on that so you can get the news aspect and hear my opinion on the 42 00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:19,000 podcast. 43 00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:25,240 But what a very interesting week two in the NFL. 44 00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:26,400 It's weird the NFL. 45 00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:31,400 I was telling my wife this actually, we were watching the game and I was like, man, the 46 00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:32,960 NFL is going to have to stop doing that. 47 00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:37,040 It's not looked at me weird because when I say half a thought in my head and then the 48 00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:41,000 rest of it comes out loud, I'm saying man, the NFL is going to have to stop doing that. 49 00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:46,680 They're going to have to stop playing that guys in the preseason because offenses look 50 00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:48,680 awful. 51 00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:56,800 They look God awful and some bigger name quarterbacks look downright deplorable. 52 00:03:56,800 --> 00:04:03,800 It's actually so bad that the first segment of the show is going to be, there was a Young 53 00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:08,600 Money song, Wayne, Nicki Minaj and Birdman. 54 00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:10,600 What's wrong with them? 55 00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:12,600 And that's the name of this segment. 56 00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:13,600 What's wrong with them? 57 00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:19,120 There's so much elite level quarterbacks that we think that are elite that look downright 58 00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:22,080 awful in the first two games. 59 00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:28,400 Especially, or maybe they were elite adjacent or maybe they've had elite peaks and again, 60 00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:29,400 they just look downright awful. 61 00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:33,560 And a lot of these guys either didn't play the preseason or played very limited snaps 62 00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:34,560 in the preseason. 63 00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:37,080 And you know, the big wave in the NFL now is joint practice. 64 00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:41,280 It's been that way for the past few years, especially after the Rams basically had no 65 00:04:41,280 --> 00:04:45,040 preseason and when you're on the Super Bowl, a lot of different people decided, oh, we're 66 00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:48,840 going to run these joint practices, which it's a controlled setting. 67 00:04:48,840 --> 00:04:54,240 It's effectively a live scrimmage and they figured my ones go against your ones for 30 68 00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:57,160 plays or 20 plays, whatever. 69 00:04:57,160 --> 00:04:59,080 That's about how long they were playing the preseason. 70 00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:00,640 So what's the difference? 71 00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:07,840 And to me, the difference is in practice, there's a script, like regardless of what happens, 72 00:05:07,840 --> 00:05:15,640 you know, if you run a pass on the first play of the script, that pass can be a 50 yard 73 00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:16,640 touchdown. 74 00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:21,640 That pass can be, you know, whatever. 75 00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:25,880 If the script says it's going to be inside zone to the left on play two, you're going 76 00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:28,000 to run inside zone to the left on play two. 77 00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:29,000 You know what I'm saying? 78 00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:31,200 So there's no rhyme or reason. 79 00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:35,560 If you're the defense, you pretty much, you'll try coverages with no real reason to attempt 80 00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:36,560 them. 81 00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:41,560 You may get lucky and get a clean blitz sack, or you may give up three verticals wide open 82 00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:46,840 like this picks one, you know, so it's a little different in joint practices because again, 83 00:05:46,840 --> 00:05:48,760 it's very coach controlled. 84 00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:50,280 It's very script based. 85 00:05:50,280 --> 00:05:51,760 There's no real ebb and flow. 86 00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:57,120 Now the preseason isn't the world's best diagnostic either, as you can tell from Pittsburgh offense, 87 00:05:57,120 --> 00:06:03,760 and we'll talk about them a little later, but the preseason isn't the world's best diagnostic 88 00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:04,760 either. 89 00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:10,040 I believe when we're serving it correctly, the 0 and 16 Lions with four and on the preseason. 90 00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:13,400 The Ravens haven't lost the preseason game in like six years. 91 00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:18,520 So the preseason isn't the world's best diagnostic test, but it has a little bit more rhyme or 92 00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:20,800 reason to the play selection. 93 00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:27,520 So now if it's first or second in 20, you're not going to run dive left. 94 00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:28,520 You know what I'm saying? 95 00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:31,600 Just because it's on the script. 96 00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:34,320 You may throw a screen pass like that, but you're not just going to hand the ball over 97 00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:40,840 the middle, bend and throw deep crosses on third and 22 just because again, the script 98 00:06:40,840 --> 00:06:43,040 says the plate is supposed to run. 99 00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:51,800 So it's a little bit better for teams to my opinion to work in the preseason, to work 100 00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:55,760 in the preseason games during practice is a great, right? 101 00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:59,520 But I don't think we're properly preparing our offensive lines. 102 00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:03,200 I don't think we're properly preparing our quarterbacks, especially with the quarterback 103 00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:06,240 movement being a thing now. 104 00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:09,720 It's not like quarterbacks were there five, six, seven years, basically the same group 105 00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:10,720 of guys. 106 00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:11,720 Okay. 107 00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:13,440 I don't necessarily need to go into a game for 12 snaps. 108 00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:14,440 I throw you 10 passes. 109 00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:16,240 They're like, okay, now I got it. 110 00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:20,880 Like no, it's the same group of receivers in the same quarterback five, six, seven years. 111 00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:22,800 So they know each other at the back of their hands. 112 00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:31,320 There's no real necessity in order to play in the preseason and to battle potential injury. 113 00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:37,040 However, now with quarterback movement, like I said, Brady moved first, really and truly 114 00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:42,520 to Tampa and then Stafford goes to LA and then Ron Rogers in New York, Derek Harz in 115 00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:46,200 New Orleans, Baker Mayfield is in Tampa. 116 00:07:46,200 --> 00:07:50,320 You know, you got Russell Wilson last year, then Denver. 117 00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:58,640 You got a lot of QB movement, Deshaun Watson really getting a first off season in Cleveland. 118 00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:02,000 A lot of quarterback movement as of late. 119 00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:08,360 And so now to me, preseason games become even more valuable because now you get the opportunity 120 00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:09,360 to play at game speed. 121 00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:12,400 You get the opportunity to play in a non-controlled environment. 122 00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:15,600 There's some semblance of play calling logic or rationale. 123 00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:18,080 Usually not a massive playbook. 124 00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:23,040 There's some logical rationale in the play calling and so you get to play situation of 125 00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:26,720 football without, you know, saying, okay, for the next 10 plays, we're going to be in 126 00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:28,720 a two minute drive. 127 00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:32,520 If you do a two minute drive in during practice, the QB can't get hit. 128 00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:34,560 There's just a bunch of other stuff that's happening here. 129 00:08:34,560 --> 00:08:37,720 And also that quarterback sense of security goes away too. 130 00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:40,640 When you walk, when you're working in practice, everyone on the planet knows, don't hit the 131 00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:41,640 quarterback. 132 00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:45,400 If you hit the quarterback, you probably get cut. 133 00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:46,400 All right. 134 00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:51,920 Operating in that sense of security means that I can throw the ball with a defense tackle, 135 00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:56,920 barrel and right on me, cause I know he can't hit me. 136 00:08:56,920 --> 00:09:00,640 There's a certain level of freedom that QBs play with in camp. 137 00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:04,680 They don't play with them in the regular season because people can literally clean their clocks. 138 00:09:04,680 --> 00:09:10,840 So they do their best to not play the same way. 139 00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:18,720 But anyway, I digress back to our first topic, which is what's wrong with them. 140 00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:20,000 Slaughter for Joe Burrow. 141 00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:24,720 So this is a question that should be asked, but also should be answered. 142 00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:26,000 It's his calf. 143 00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:29,840 We spoke about a couple of minutes ago, we spoke about how the preseason for all these 144 00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:32,600 little quarterbacks is so valuable. 145 00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:36,960 But I feel like all young quarterbacks need to play in the preseason anyway. 146 00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:42,040 And that's Joe Burrow trying to expand the offensive line versus a lot of bullets. 147 00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:47,360 Of course his first game action with that calf to see how it would respond, how it would 148 00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:48,360 deal. 149 00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:51,800 He wasn't really even clear to play until right before week one. 150 00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:56,240 I think he began aggravating it then and then whatever he did in the last game took it over 151 00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:57,240 the top. 152 00:09:57,240 --> 00:10:02,760 And so there's a potential he misses some games. 153 00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:05,760 Absolutely awful if that is the case. 154 00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:12,640 However, however, they pulled off a minor miracle last year in terms of how they started 155 00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:16,080 off and then they ran through and made the playoffs. 156 00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:19,640 I think 10 wins may end up winning that division. 157 00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:22,840 Because once the division start cannibalizing each other, they're not going to be able 158 00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:24,360 to hold those pristine records. 159 00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:26,680 So I think 10 wins may win that division. 160 00:10:26,680 --> 00:10:30,480 I think 11 definitely wins that division. 161 00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:34,520 But Joe Burrow has an opportunity here to take a week off to try and rest as much as 162 00:10:34,520 --> 00:10:41,980 humanly possible and come back ready for the last three, four months of the season because 163 00:10:41,980 --> 00:10:47,320 he wouldn't have thrown in a way trying to win one game. 164 00:10:47,320 --> 00:10:52,080 Deshaun Watson, the Cleveland Browns looks absolutely cooked. 165 00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:57,360 Yeah, it's pretty rough. 166 00:10:57,360 --> 00:11:01,320 He's the worst aging quarterback in the league in terms of what consistency thought of making 167 00:11:01,320 --> 00:11:09,920 big money because at least in the case of Van Rogers, he was 40, 39, 40. 168 00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:12,880 He's like his decline age 38, 39. 169 00:11:12,880 --> 00:11:16,720 And then you get to your age 40 season and the Achilles goes. 170 00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:20,240 Okay, it happens, right? 171 00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:22,240 There's another guy on the list we're going to talk about in a few minutes. 172 00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:25,240 People are going to say, what about Russell Wilson? 173 00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:26,880 What's a Russell Wilson too? 174 00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:32,200 Well, compounds Deshaun Watson is what she had to give to get him. 175 00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:36,400 The Cleveland Browns still owed the Houston Techless a first round pick. 176 00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:43,280 So which is why Houston was so comfortable moving their first round pick this draft to 177 00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:51,320 get Will Anderson last draft because they knew they had another first round pick coming from 178 00:11:51,320 --> 00:11:52,320 Deshaun Watson. 179 00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:55,520 So instead of two first round picks, they have one first round pick, no biggie. 180 00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:58,440 And they go up and get a guy they knew they wanted in Will Anderson. 181 00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:00,440 Again, no biggie. 182 00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:04,120 Now, I think Houston picks end up being top three. 183 00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:07,080 Nick and I had to tell them Kayla Williams, who knows how that conversation breaks down 184 00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:08,680 or Marvin Harrison Jr. 185 00:12:08,680 --> 00:12:10,360 Who knows how that conversation ends. 186 00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:12,640 But regardless, again, no biggie. 187 00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:14,840 Cleveland still owes Houston a first round pick. 188 00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:22,720 When Deshaun Watson showed up without playing a year of football with 24 sexual misconduct 189 00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:29,520 allegations, he signed for five years, $230 million. 190 00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:34,720 For the next four seasons, the Cleveland Browns owe him $200 million. 191 00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:35,720 His cap hits. 192 00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:38,880 Oh, and he has automatic bonuses on there. 193 00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:45,080 So he has $46 million in base salary every year the next three years. 194 00:12:45,080 --> 00:12:52,480 And he also has a $16 million like bonus, prorated bonus every year the next three, 195 00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:55,840 every year the next three to four years. 196 00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:59,640 So because his deal is fully guaranteed, if you were to say, let's cut him after this 197 00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:04,680 season, his cap hit, his dead cap would be $200 million. 198 00:13:04,680 --> 00:13:08,960 If you want to cut him the year after that, his dead cap hit is $132 million. 199 00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:13,080 If you want to cut him the year after that, his dead cap hit is like $60-something million. 200 00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:17,120 So basically, he's effectively uncuttable. 201 00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:20,760 He has Cleveland completely over the barrel as far as financial power. 202 00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:25,960 His cap hits are $60-something million a year over the next three to four years. 203 00:13:25,960 --> 00:13:29,760 Now the cap will rise, so that would give it a little grace. 204 00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:35,160 But absolutely painful was the Sean Wesson going through. 205 00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:42,800 I mean, some of the throws he's making, I'm just looking and going, who is he throwing 206 00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:43,800 the ball to? 207 00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:47,960 I mean, legitimately questioning who's he throwing the ball to? 208 00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:50,680 Because it couldn't have been the person in the same color as him. 209 00:13:50,680 --> 00:13:56,640 Because the person in the same color as him is a ways away from where the ball ended up. 210 00:13:56,640 --> 00:14:01,040 And so, Deshawn is one of those quarterbacks that just doesn't look like himself. 211 00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:05,040 Like I said, he looks absolutely, I had to say, but he looks cooked. 212 00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:08,320 He looks like he's done. 213 00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:11,120 And I don't know if he can get it back. 214 00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:12,840 Fans of his, I know a few of them. 215 00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:16,280 Oh, when Deshawn gets it back, he'll be top two again, top three again. 216 00:14:16,280 --> 00:14:19,440 People forget what Deshawn was before he sat out. 217 00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:22,840 No, we remember. 218 00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:24,720 We definitely remember. 219 00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:27,840 But I just don't think he's gonna get it back. 220 00:14:27,840 --> 00:14:30,640 Quarterback is in a position you can sit out for a year, year and a half and come back 221 00:14:30,640 --> 00:14:33,760 and like perfectly normal. 222 00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:37,600 I just don't think he shakes it back. 223 00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:43,960 He has all the talent in the world in his body and next to him as far as a team. 224 00:14:43,960 --> 00:14:47,080 And I just don't think he shakes it back, which is sad. 225 00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:52,000 Because again, Deshawn Watson before these allegations, whereas top two, three quarterback 226 00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:55,720 in the NFL, he's literally giving a case to him being the best. 227 00:14:55,720 --> 00:15:01,640 And then forced to take a year sabbatical, comes back and he's just not the same. 228 00:15:01,640 --> 00:15:03,720 And he has Cleveland completely over the barrel. 229 00:15:03,720 --> 00:15:06,720 So one thing Cleveland Brown's fans can say is he's got four years to figure it out because 230 00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:08,320 he's not going anywhere in the next four years. 231 00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:13,880 But he definitely limits Cleveland's ability to build around him and it hurts him to me 232 00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:16,800 overall legacy wise. 233 00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:20,320 Trevor Lawrence don't know what happened to him. 234 00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:28,160 He looks a lot more like for picking the first half Trevor Lawrence than lead the comeback 235 00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:35,120 lead the comeback in the playoff game and again, he threw the four picks in Trevor Lawrence. 236 00:15:35,120 --> 00:15:38,240 I mean, he looks more like Jester than Prince. 237 00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:39,680 I don't get it. 238 00:15:39,680 --> 00:15:41,000 What's going on with Trevor right now? 239 00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:43,200 Schematically, they look a little off. 240 00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:47,600 Maybe that could be it, but I just don't think Trevor Lawrence looks like the quarterback 241 00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:49,600 he was supposed to be this season. 242 00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:55,400 Again, people expected more of that last seven game lead into playoffs, first playoff game 243 00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:56,400 kind of success. 244 00:15:56,400 --> 00:15:58,840 Then they get in the second half of that second playoff game. 245 00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:01,520 The first half of the playoff game he was absolutely awful. 246 00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:02,520 He was at four interceptions. 247 00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:06,440 They were down to 28-0, 24-0, something like that. 248 00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:11,560 He gets them all the way back and they're winning the game. 249 00:16:11,560 --> 00:16:20,040 That's kind of what people were expecting Trevor Lawrence to use this year, bouncing 250 00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:28,080 off of that momentum launching upwards to try and climb the career ladder. 251 00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:34,520 Incredibly worried about Trevor Lawrence's performance this year because it just doesn't 252 00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:41,720 look like the quarterback we saw over the last seven to eight weeks of last season. 253 00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:47,800 Justin Fields, everyone's dark horse MVP pick. 254 00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:50,520 That horse is dead, by the way. 255 00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:53,920 Secondly, I think his career in Chicago is dead. 256 00:16:53,920 --> 00:16:55,480 That wouldn't be surprising. 257 00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:59,200 The entire NFL just says we've seen enough. 258 00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:07,800 CJ Stroud has more career passing, 300 yard passing games than Justin Fields. 259 00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:12,120 This is Justin Fields' I believe fourth year starting in Jacksonville. 260 00:17:12,120 --> 00:17:17,880 CJ Stroud, starting in Chicago rather, CJ Stroud played two football games total in 261 00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:18,880 the NFL. 262 00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:24,000 I think that's a huge problem because in today's NFL you need to be able to go sideline to 263 00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:27,920 sideline and really stretch the field out. 264 00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:36,840 There's too many layups in that equation that Fields just flat out misses. 265 00:17:36,840 --> 00:17:41,400 I won't slander him and say he's throwing with his eyes closed because I've kind of 266 00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:45,440 been hearing that joke is that Fields wants to throw with his eyes closed. 267 00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:47,400 I won't dare get from that. 268 00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:57,360 Some of the vision mistakes, some of the protection errors, stuff like that, he's just making 269 00:17:57,360 --> 00:18:02,280 it harder on him to overcome an already subpar roster. 270 00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:05,920 The GM is doing his absolute best to clean up that mess the last GM did. 271 00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:10,760 They're going to have to do something about the quarterback position. 272 00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:14,920 They need to figure it out. 273 00:18:14,920 --> 00:18:19,240 And last but certainly not least, Russell Wilson is having a bit of a career resurgence 274 00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:22,120 in Denver under Sean Payton. 275 00:18:22,120 --> 00:18:25,200 Points per drive, they're tops for second highest in the league. 276 00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:27,080 They're scoring pretty much everything to get the ball. 277 00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:31,720 They're just having difficulties once they get close to the goal line. 278 00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:32,720 They just have difficulties. 279 00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:34,440 I think the field condenses a little bit. 280 00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:35,920 There's a lot less space. 281 00:18:35,920 --> 00:18:39,760 Russell Wilson didn't have the absolute rocket arm he used to possess. 282 00:18:39,760 --> 00:18:46,840 So I think that is running into some issues with Russell Wilson right now. 283 00:18:46,840 --> 00:18:51,600 He's playing his absolute best, but there's just some stuff happening around the organization, 284 00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:55,320 especially on the defensive side, that has to get rectified if Russell is supposed to 285 00:18:55,320 --> 00:18:59,240 have any chance of leading this team anywhere. 286 00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:03,200 I don't think the playoffs are a possibility, maybe not this year, but I think that the 287 00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:07,520 Broncos are at least taking a step in the right direction. 288 00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:10,560 We had a couple of shifting gears from that. 289 00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:18,960 We had a couple of top running backs go down with injuries this week. 290 00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:24,520 So first off, we had, I go with the police group, we had Saquon Barkley dealing with 291 00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:25,520 a hamstring issue. 292 00:19:25,520 --> 00:19:32,120 He'll be out a few weeks, but then he will be able to, okay, I said a few weeks, but 293 00:19:32,120 --> 00:19:35,160 they're talking about he's a fast healer and could play the Thursday night. 294 00:19:35,160 --> 00:19:36,160 I wouldn't. 295 00:19:36,160 --> 00:19:43,280 I would definitely give it at least a week in order to try and heal itself before you 296 00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:45,080 play on another Sunday. 297 00:19:45,080 --> 00:19:49,720 So if you miss Thursday, you have another whole week to get to the Sunday in order to 298 00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:51,360 get ready to play. 299 00:19:51,360 --> 00:20:00,040 So absolute kudos to Saquon Barkley and the Jazz Organization. 300 00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:05,200 Like I said, I sit them down for at least a week, minimum. 301 00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:08,000 It could be up to three weeks and we're talking about a hamstring here. 302 00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:11,600 One of the more fickle things in the human body between that and the Achilles, one of 303 00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:14,120 the two most fickle things in the human body. 304 00:20:14,120 --> 00:20:21,060 And of course I posted on my social medias with the label warning, but Nate Shove was 305 00:20:21,060 --> 00:20:27,840 hit directly in the knee by Minka Fitzpatrick and it caused one of the most disgusting injuries 306 00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:31,680 I have seen in a knee in a very, very long time. 307 00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:42,400 If you want to see it on all my socials, it's just an incredibly, incredibly impactful player. 308 00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:48,960 I mean, Cleveland offense does not exist if Nick Chubb is not running the ball and running 309 00:20:48,960 --> 00:20:49,960 the ball well. 310 00:20:49,960 --> 00:20:54,960 So it's like they're wild. 311 00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:59,680 There's stuff going around like Minka, a dirty player, he's not a dirty player. 312 00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:03,360 Is it unfortunate what happened to Nick Chubb? 313 00:21:03,360 --> 00:21:04,360 Absolutely. 314 00:21:04,360 --> 00:21:08,640 Is it unfortunate that that happens more than people would like? 315 00:21:08,640 --> 00:21:09,640 Absolutely. 316 00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:15,960 But you can't go high and so only to bring a guy like Nick Chubb down is to go low and 317 00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:20,240 Chubb just happened to plant his knee, plant his leg and they met at the same time. 318 00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:25,520 Normally in a situation where a guy gets hit in the knee, his knee's off the ground and 319 00:21:25,520 --> 00:21:32,040 so he's able to kind of like push that into the realm of like pain tolerance. 320 00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:37,400 But with the knee planted, they had nowhere to go and so the joint just gave in on itself. 321 00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:41,560 They're pretty disgusting injury, but like I said, if you want to check it out on all 322 00:21:41,560 --> 00:21:44,080 my socials, I prayed with Chubb, it's the same knee. 323 00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:47,240 He completely blew up at Georgia. 324 00:21:47,240 --> 00:21:49,960 And so I'm just hoping that it does not affect him long term. 325 00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:54,080 He is able to come back to the running back we know and love. 326 00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:55,960 This is a couple of quick hitters. 327 00:21:55,960 --> 00:21:56,960 I have two seconds. 328 00:21:56,960 --> 00:22:00,480 I call it the worst winners and the best losers. 329 00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:02,520 The worst winners again with the Giants. 330 00:22:02,520 --> 00:22:05,040 You played an awful football game and you lost Saquon Barkley. 331 00:22:05,040 --> 00:22:06,460 He was having to win. 332 00:22:06,460 --> 00:22:08,520 So I guess kudos to you. 333 00:22:08,520 --> 00:22:13,600 The Saints in general, they did not look all that great. 334 00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:16,040 The offense needs a lot of buffing and polishing. 335 00:22:16,040 --> 00:22:21,320 As I was saying, preseason games, it's time for you to buff and polish a brand new anything 336 00:22:21,320 --> 00:22:25,080 and they're going to have to buff and polish on the fly. 337 00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:28,120 And then the Pittsburgh Steelers won a football game in which the fourth quarter they had 338 00:22:28,120 --> 00:22:29,840 negative seven yards. 339 00:22:29,840 --> 00:22:33,720 I just won't even give you credit for that offensively. 340 00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:37,560 That is absolutely awful. 341 00:22:37,560 --> 00:22:40,400 And then the best losers, Los Angeles Rams. 342 00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:41,400 They look really good. 343 00:22:41,400 --> 00:22:47,200 Puka and Nakoa with the most receptions in the first two weeks of the season. 344 00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:58,320 League Packers for the second weekend of the row looked good offensively under Jordan Love. 345 00:22:47,200 --> 00:22:52,840 Now he's playing Cooper Cup spot, but I'm just going to let that rock. 346 00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:02,160 He needs to continue to work on himself via film. 347 00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:06,680 But for the most part, the Packers look fine without any rogers. 348 00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:11,440 When you're worried about a precipitiv drop off on the offensive flow, going from Rogers 349 00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:14,240 to Love, I haven't noticed any. 350 00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:18,560 Pretty much as long as the offense operates as it should around Love, they work perfectly 351 00:23:18,560 --> 00:23:19,560 fine. 352 00:23:19,560 --> 00:23:23,520 I haven't seen any major drop off, any precipitiv change, no weird attitudes blown up. 353 00:23:23,520 --> 00:23:28,520 None of the stuff you usually would get from a team in turmoil or any some sort of big 354 00:23:28,520 --> 00:23:30,800 switch. 355 00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:34,760 And then lastly in the best losers list, we got the Los Angeles Chargers, everyone's favorite 356 00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:35,760 losers. 357 00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:42,320 They actually did something that was not done in the history of the NFL this time in their 358 00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:43,320 loser realness. 359 00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:48,800 See if I can find my photo, should have had this photo already. 360 00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:51,640 My apologies. 361 00:23:51,640 --> 00:23:56,400 The Chargers have scored 58 points, zero turnovers in their 0-2. 362 00:23:56,400 --> 00:24:01,280 In the Super Bowl era, 32 other teams have scored at least 50 points, committing no turnovers 363 00:24:01,280 --> 00:24:02,760 in the first two games. 364 00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:07,920 The 2023-2024 Chargers are the only ones to be winless. 365 00:24:07,920 --> 00:24:12,880 So I think Brandon Staley cannot be allowed to ruin this roster and to hurt the prime 366 00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:13,880 of this quarterback further. 367 00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:16,400 I know that he needs to be fired. 368 00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:23,720 It's coming up off season, in the off season. 369 00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:29,360 It's just, the Chargers feel like they have a permanent black cat running around their 370 00:24:29,360 --> 00:24:30,360 ring. 371 00:24:30,360 --> 00:24:33,680 And if they lose games, it's not like you say people are inventing ways to do stuff 372 00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:34,680 dumb. 373 00:24:34,680 --> 00:24:36,920 They invent ways to lose football games. 374 00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:38,480 I think Brandon Staley has to go. 375 00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:42,560 There's no way he makes it all the way through the off season into next season. 376 00:24:42,560 --> 00:24:43,920 There's literally no way. 377 00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:44,920 He's absolutely awful. 378 00:24:44,920 --> 00:24:49,360 He's dragging down the Chargers organization along with the other issues they have as far 379 00:24:49,360 --> 00:24:53,880 as management, ownership, and other stuff the Chargers have going on. 380 00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:55,760 But Brandon Staley is an easy fix. 381 00:24:55,760 --> 00:24:56,760 It's awful. 382 00:24:56,760 --> 00:25:00,240 If I'm Sean Payton, I'm kicking myself because I probably could have waited a year. 383 00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:04,240 And instead of getting descending, Russell Woods on a massive contract, you could have 384 00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:05,440 got ascending. 385 00:25:05,440 --> 00:25:08,920 Justin Herbert in Los Angeles instead of Denver. 386 00:25:08,920 --> 00:25:10,360 In doors instead of out. 387 00:25:10,360 --> 00:25:16,600 So many of us would have been on the Chargers side instead of the Broncos side. 388 00:25:16,600 --> 00:25:17,600 Sorry. 389 00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:22,080 But up next, we're going to talk about NFL Week 3 coming up and talk about our favorite 390 00:25:22,080 --> 00:25:23,080 storylines going into it. 391 00:25:23,080 --> 00:25:48,560 Welcome back into the show. 392 00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:50,760 And now we're going to jump right into NFL Week 3. 393 00:25:50,760 --> 00:25:55,400 Let's talk about some of our favorite games and along with our major storylines heading 394 00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:56,400 into Week 3. 395 00:25:56,400 --> 00:25:58,840 So, of course, we talked about some injury news. 396 00:25:58,840 --> 00:26:01,200 We're going to touch right back on that really quickly. 397 00:26:01,200 --> 00:26:04,800 Nick Chubb, of course, is going to be out for the season with a complete total knee 398 00:26:04,800 --> 00:26:05,800 destruction. 399 00:26:05,800 --> 00:26:12,280 I will honestly be surprised if anything stayed intact in his knee. 400 00:26:12,280 --> 00:26:13,280 That was absolutely rough. 401 00:26:13,280 --> 00:26:17,960 Like I said, that was a knee that was already put back together once. 402 00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:23,760 And so the same exact knee getting put back together again, I don't know. 403 00:26:23,760 --> 00:26:29,240 But we're definitely going to see and keep our eye on Nick Chubb to recovery. 404 00:26:29,240 --> 00:26:32,440 But he's out indefinitely with at least a year. 405 00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:37,240 Like I said, Kwon Barkley could be no games missed to three games missed. 406 00:26:37,240 --> 00:26:42,200 Depending on how fast he heals, according to his team, Carolina Panthers linebacker 407 00:26:42,200 --> 00:26:44,640 Shaq Thompson has a broken fibula. 408 00:26:44,640 --> 00:26:49,640 He is out for the rest of the season as well. 409 00:26:49,640 --> 00:26:56,760 But on some positive news, Patrick Mahomes had a restructuring of his contract and the 410 00:26:56,760 --> 00:26:58,880 deal does not add years. 411 00:26:58,880 --> 00:27:02,360 It does not add money. 412 00:27:02,360 --> 00:27:13,560 It simply brings his yearly salary in line with the rest of the quarterbacks in his ilk 413 00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:15,600 in his talent level. 414 00:27:15,600 --> 00:27:22,680 That is all it is doing is bringing it in line with the rest of the quarterbacks. 415 00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:28,240 And so Patrick Mahomes' deal again, one second, trying to pull it up. 416 00:27:28,240 --> 00:27:33,680 I posted all about it and now I can't find it. 417 00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:36,320 Oh, found it. 418 00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:37,320 All right. 419 00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:43,520 So Patrick Mahomes' restructure of his contract again, added no new money and added no new 420 00:27:43,520 --> 00:27:44,520 years. 421 00:27:44,520 --> 00:27:54,120 But it moved $210.6 million of guaranteed money into the next four years. 422 00:27:54,120 --> 00:28:02,640 So between 2023 and 2026, he has $210.6 million guaranteed dollars coming his way and it can 423 00:28:02,640 --> 00:28:06,760 go up to $218.1 million with incentives. 424 00:28:06,760 --> 00:28:10,880 The 210.6 is the most over four years in NFL history. 425 00:28:10,880 --> 00:28:17,020 The remainder of the contract after 2026 is effectively removed and the team will renegotiate 426 00:28:17,020 --> 00:28:18,020 after 2026. 427 00:28:18,020 --> 00:28:22,240 They'll tear up whatever years are left and make a whole new contract. 428 00:28:22,240 --> 00:28:30,320 But again, it brings Patrick back into line with the other quarterbacks in the league. 429 00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:37,080 Now, what makes it interesting is, what makes this deal quite interesting is because it 430 00:28:37,080 --> 00:28:41,240 didn't add years or add money, his cap hits don't change. 431 00:28:41,240 --> 00:28:43,680 It's actually a beautiful deal done by the Kansas City team. 432 00:28:43,680 --> 00:28:48,200 It's not like they lopped off three years, moved all the money up and cap hits started 433 00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:49,200 going crazy. 434 00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:52,560 His cap hit doesn't change because according to the system, those years still exist. 435 00:28:52,560 --> 00:28:57,640 Now, they're effectively null and void, but they still exist and he can pull any of his 436 00:28:57,640 --> 00:29:02,000 money over those years as well to try and reduce his cap hit. 437 00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:08,920 So major, major shout out to Patrick Mahomes and his agency for getting that done. 438 00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:14,160 One of the more interesting games of the week and we won't pick it because it's in our 439 00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:15,160 Jets pack. 440 00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:20,560 A lot of these games are actually in our Jets pack, but Pats versus Jets. 441 00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:23,480 Both teams are 0 and 2 for totally different reasons. 442 00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:26,880 The Patriots seem to not have a downfield offense. 443 00:29:26,880 --> 00:29:32,280 Mike Jones had 31 completions for 200 yards in the last game, which is almost impossible. 444 00:29:32,280 --> 00:29:34,880 And then of course, the Jets have Zach Wilson. 445 00:29:34,880 --> 00:29:39,240 So that is one of the more interesting games that is happening this weekend because of 446 00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:44,400 the highs of the Patriots and the Jets defense and then the lows of their offense. 447 00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:48,400 So as if you're a Jets fan, you went from the journey of Aaron Rodgers Super Bowl to 448 00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:53,640 Zach Wilson Oh No's within an hour of each other. 449 00:29:53,640 --> 00:30:00,840 I mean, that's the life you live if you're the Jets right now. 450 00:30:00,840 --> 00:30:10,440 I know Robert Sala, Blue Smoke of Zach Wilson saying that, Oh, he's the guy we're going 451 00:30:10,440 --> 00:30:14,280 to bring in a young guy and I want to be clear that this is Zach's team. 452 00:30:14,280 --> 00:30:15,280 Great. 453 00:30:15,280 --> 00:30:18,160 You did an excellent job blowing smoke. 454 00:30:18,160 --> 00:30:20,840 But he's just he's bad. 455 00:30:20,840 --> 00:30:24,320 He's awful at the quarterback position. 456 00:30:24,320 --> 00:30:26,400 He's dragging that roster down as a Patriots fan. 457 00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:27,400 I appreciate it. 458 00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:31,760 I know even if Mike Jones struggles, Zach Wilson is going to be worse and he's going to be 459 00:30:31,760 --> 00:30:36,600 considerably worse and we have to take an opportunity to intercept the passes that come 460 00:30:36,600 --> 00:30:37,600 our way. 461 00:30:37,600 --> 00:30:41,120 But you know, and by I mean the Patriots. 462 00:30:41,120 --> 00:30:43,400 So it should be a very interesting game as well. 463 00:30:43,400 --> 00:30:46,960 So we'll pick it in Jack's pack. 464 00:30:46,960 --> 00:30:48,960 Saints versus Packers. 465 00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:51,160 I stayed away from the whatever the spread was. 466 00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:53,680 Honestly, I kind of got the Saints here. 467 00:30:53,680 --> 00:30:58,880 That's going to be a lot of offensive line coming at Jordan Levin once and it's going 468 00:30:58,880 --> 00:31:06,800 to be his most real old line he'll play probably besides San Fran. 469 00:31:06,800 --> 00:31:12,960 Maybe Dallas probably. 470 00:31:12,960 --> 00:31:18,160 You know, the New Orleans Saints are in a spot where they're kind of going up with house 471 00:31:18,160 --> 00:31:19,160 money again. 472 00:31:19,160 --> 00:31:22,800 They get to get exotic with their blitzes, exotic with their coverages, exotic with anything 473 00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:24,680 they have going on. 474 00:31:24,680 --> 00:31:27,200 And Jordan Love has to face the realest D-line. 475 00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:28,200 Sorry, not O-line. 476 00:31:28,200 --> 00:31:31,320 He will have to deal with presumably all season. 477 00:31:31,320 --> 00:31:37,240 And of course, you know, we're going to do our absolute best if you're the New Orleans 478 00:31:37,240 --> 00:31:39,800 Saints and limiting the big explosives from the Packers. 479 00:31:39,800 --> 00:31:41,280 Same thing with the Packers. 480 00:31:41,280 --> 00:31:42,280 The Saints have one game. 481 00:31:42,280 --> 00:31:46,280 Just pack up a game because they hit one big explosive. 482 00:31:46,280 --> 00:31:51,720 And so if you are the Greenway Packers, you're doing everything you can to keep the game 483 00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:57,400 most going to not get outrun sideline to sideline and to try and take down the New Orleans Saints. 484 00:31:57,400 --> 00:32:02,360 But again, I have slight favor to the Saints. 485 00:32:02,360 --> 00:32:07,120 The Los Angeles Chargers versus the Minnesota Vikings, two franchises and these days two 486 00:32:07,120 --> 00:32:12,620 quarterbacks that cuts a lot of flat for their franchise and up to two between Justin Herbert 487 00:32:12,620 --> 00:32:14,760 and Kurt Cousins. 488 00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:19,320 I strongly believe that this game is in our jack's back, so we won't pick it. 489 00:32:19,320 --> 00:32:22,760 But it should be an interesting contest, a high scoring contest at that. 490 00:32:22,760 --> 00:32:24,680 I don't believe in either defense. 491 00:32:24,680 --> 00:32:27,960 I don't believe the defense is believing either defense. 492 00:32:27,960 --> 00:32:32,040 And so I think it'll be a very high scoring game where Herbert and Cousins will get an 493 00:32:32,040 --> 00:32:34,680 opportunity to really showcase their abilities to play quarterback. 494 00:32:34,680 --> 00:32:39,440 Because again, I don't think either team will be necessarily a ground and pound situation. 495 00:32:39,440 --> 00:32:44,320 And also I don't think either team will be necessarily be stopped by the other's defense. 496 00:32:44,320 --> 00:32:49,600 Steelers have an interesting game with the Raiders. 497 00:32:49,600 --> 00:32:53,240 This is the game if Mike Thomas is going to get this ship corrected, then this is the 498 00:32:53,240 --> 00:32:54,520 game for him to do it. 499 00:32:54,520 --> 00:32:57,080 Jim Igrappolo is playing pretty rough right now for Vegas. 500 00:32:57,080 --> 00:32:59,280 They didn't really have a lot going for them. 501 00:32:59,280 --> 00:33:01,920 They have a Hunter Renfro problem. 502 00:33:01,920 --> 00:33:07,640 Devontae Adams is normal, which means it's not great for Devontae Adams. 503 00:33:07,640 --> 00:33:08,640 No real signs of life. 504 00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:12,400 Like I said, it was Jim Igrappolo playing pretty roughly. 505 00:33:12,400 --> 00:33:16,920 This isn't absolutely terrible, but if Mike Thomas is going to get him a game under Kenny 506 00:33:16,920 --> 00:33:24,520 Pickett's belt and get some benefit or some happiness or some anything with offensive 507 00:33:24,520 --> 00:33:28,480 coordinator Matt Canada, this will be the game he does against the Las Vegas Raiders. 508 00:33:28,480 --> 00:33:32,640 But on the flip side, the Las Vegas Raiders have an opportunity to really kickstart their 509 00:33:32,640 --> 00:33:33,640 season. 510 00:33:33,640 --> 00:33:43,160 To kind of get a win over a good program like the Steelers. 511 00:33:43,160 --> 00:33:46,200 Mike Thomas never had a losing record, so he doesn't know what a losing record feels 512 00:33:46,200 --> 00:33:47,200 like. 513 00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:50,480 So for the Raiders to go and get a win like that over the Steelers, that would be big 514 00:33:50,480 --> 00:33:55,040 for them to kind of kickstart their season and give them confidence in locker room. 515 00:33:55,040 --> 00:33:58,080 That game is not Jack's pack. 516 00:33:58,080 --> 00:33:59,400 I don't think the Raiders will get it done. 517 00:33:59,400 --> 00:34:04,280 I do think the Steelers suffocate them and get a victory. 518 00:34:04,280 --> 00:34:14,960 And then lastly, the double Monday night football schedule is back. 519 00:34:14,960 --> 00:34:18,840 My friends and I wasn't really huge fans of it. 520 00:34:18,840 --> 00:34:20,800 Kind of feel chaotic. 521 00:34:20,800 --> 00:34:24,040 If you have multiple screens, I guess it could work. 522 00:34:24,040 --> 00:34:28,360 I had Saints on my TV and then the Steelers Browns on my iPad. 523 00:34:28,360 --> 00:34:30,800 So if you had a situation like that, I guess it could work. 524 00:34:30,800 --> 00:34:31,800 It's not bad. 525 00:34:31,800 --> 00:34:37,800 But this week, of course, it is Eagles at Bucks and then Rams at Bengals. 526 00:34:37,800 --> 00:34:40,680 Rams at Bengals could be a very nice contest. 527 00:34:40,680 --> 00:34:44,800 I didn't touch on Jack's pack because it all depends on Joe Burrow plays. 528 00:34:44,800 --> 00:34:48,880 If he plays, I think the Bengals get them and get on the board for their first win. 529 00:34:48,880 --> 00:34:54,120 We would know what our team's got for cool. 530 00:34:54,120 --> 00:34:58,120 And then Eagles Bucks, I think Eagles kind of punch on the Buccaneers here. 531 00:34:58,120 --> 00:35:01,440 Although the Eagles have soft spot and accepting their own linebacker core, if pressure does 532 00:35:01,440 --> 00:35:04,640 not get to the quarterback, I think they'll heat up. 533 00:35:04,640 --> 00:35:06,600 Baker may feel forced to go bad decisions. 534 00:35:06,600 --> 00:35:08,920 Oh, he's starting to get some expectations. 535 00:35:08,920 --> 00:35:11,560 So there's no doubt he'll let whoever it is down. 536 00:35:11,560 --> 00:35:16,360 And because Baker will let you down, which Baker does, right? 537 00:35:16,360 --> 00:35:20,000 I think that the Eagles are going to run away and hide with the game late. 538 00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:23,360 Again, not in my Jack's pack either one. 539 00:35:23,360 --> 00:35:26,360 But I think the Eagles run away and hide with their late. 540 00:35:26,360 --> 00:35:29,800 And I think Rams Bengals pretty much all depends on Joe Burrow plays. 541 00:35:29,800 --> 00:35:35,800 If you have Burrow, he's 80% and if the Bengals win the game, if you don't have Burrow, if 542 00:35:35,800 --> 00:35:38,880 the Rams want to go in the game pretty comfortable. 543 00:35:38,880 --> 00:35:57,280 But up next, we're going to shift to our NFL betting segment, Jack's pack. 544 00:35:57,280 --> 00:36:20,280 Welcome back into the show. 545 00:36:20,280 --> 00:36:26,220 And now we're going to jump into our NFL betting segment, Jack's pack, where we pick five games 546 00:36:26,220 --> 00:36:30,400 every week against the spread based on the ESPN app. 547 00:36:30,400 --> 00:36:33,440 And so we pick those games, keep track of them all season. 548 00:36:33,440 --> 00:36:35,480 This year we're adding the lock. 549 00:36:35,480 --> 00:36:40,680 So every week I'm going to pick my favorite number of the week, I'm going to lock it in. 550 00:36:40,680 --> 00:36:45,060 So if you're in the betting terms, a one unit bet, a two unit bet, there's always be my 551 00:36:45,060 --> 00:36:46,460 two unit bet. 552 00:36:46,460 --> 00:36:49,560 So we're going to always kind of treat everything else as a one unit bet. 553 00:36:49,560 --> 00:36:51,620 And by unit, I mean whatever you're comfortable betting. 554 00:36:51,620 --> 00:36:55,320 So if you're a $10 guy, each one of these bets will be $10. 555 00:36:55,320 --> 00:36:58,840 However, if it's a two unit bet, you just double whatever your standard is. 556 00:36:58,840 --> 00:37:05,440 So if you're a $100 bad guy, put $100 in each one of these games, but that lock put $200 557 00:37:05,440 --> 00:37:06,440 on. 558 00:37:06,440 --> 00:37:08,880 I'm not really looking at the value of the pick. 559 00:37:08,880 --> 00:37:11,880 I'm just kind of looking at the pick itself and the number itself. 560 00:37:11,880 --> 00:37:16,320 Usually over hundreds, usually points spread is about one way either way. 561 00:37:16,320 --> 00:37:21,840 So again, to be a professional gambler, we spoke about this a lot last year, but to be 562 00:37:21,840 --> 00:37:27,280 a professional gambler, you want to be at about 56% to be profitable as a professional 563 00:37:27,280 --> 00:37:28,280 gambler. 564 00:37:28,280 --> 00:37:32,280 And so right now we're three and two again this week. 565 00:37:32,280 --> 00:37:33,640 So we're six and four. 566 00:37:33,640 --> 00:37:35,760 We're sitting at about 60%. 567 00:37:35,760 --> 00:37:38,000 So right now we'd be at a professional gambler's level. 568 00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:42,180 We're sitting at six and four, including two and O on our locks. 569 00:37:42,180 --> 00:37:44,720 So we're going to try and keep the momentum going this week. 570 00:37:44,720 --> 00:37:51,000 And we're going to jump right into the numbers that I am a fan of this week. 571 00:37:51,000 --> 00:37:56,320 So we have the Ravens minus eight first, the Colts take the Ravens. 572 00:37:56,320 --> 00:38:00,560 I just think that the Ravens are a team that's going to go out there against the Colts. 573 00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:05,080 They're going to throw a lot of different looks at Anthony Richardson as a young quarterback. 574 00:38:05,080 --> 00:38:10,000 John Harbaugh is going to play some games with Richardson in terms of making him see 575 00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:11,560 things he's not used to seeing. 576 00:38:11,560 --> 00:38:16,280 I don't think they have the total team speed to keep up with Lamar in that new look offense. 577 00:38:16,280 --> 00:38:19,880 I just think that the Ravens win this game by at least two touchdowns, which more than 578 00:38:19,880 --> 00:38:22,280 covers the eight points that they need. 579 00:38:22,280 --> 00:38:28,920 So again, the Ravens minus eight first, the Colts take the Ravens Patriots minus two and 580 00:38:28,920 --> 00:38:31,920 a half at Jets. 581 00:38:31,920 --> 00:38:33,240 This is my lock of the week. 582 00:38:33,240 --> 00:38:35,080 Take the Patriots. 583 00:38:35,080 --> 00:38:38,480 I don't understand how this is only two and a half points. 584 00:38:38,480 --> 00:38:44,920 This to me should be six and a half, seven and a half points spread here. 585 00:38:44,920 --> 00:38:49,040 I don't, I don't understand the two and a half points at all. 586 00:38:49,040 --> 00:38:51,320 New England has always given Zach Wilson's fits. 587 00:38:51,320 --> 00:38:58,000 They have, they have dominated the Jets at literally every single turn, including especially 588 00:38:58,000 --> 00:39:00,560 in the Zach Wilson era. 589 00:39:00,560 --> 00:39:06,000 They beat the Jets. 590 00:39:06,000 --> 00:39:09,880 They beat the Jets so many times in a row at this point. 591 00:39:09,880 --> 00:39:14,480 I just think that there's no way that the Jets are only a field goal or sorry, less 592 00:39:14,480 --> 00:39:17,560 than a field goal, better than the Jets at this point. 593 00:39:17,560 --> 00:39:20,720 I just, it makes absolutely no sense. 594 00:39:20,720 --> 00:39:21,720 This line makes no sense. 595 00:39:21,720 --> 00:39:28,880 Some of it they're begging you to take the Patriots here, which is a very odd thing for 596 00:39:28,880 --> 00:39:29,880 Vegas to do. 597 00:39:29,880 --> 00:39:32,720 So they have those lines where in fact they want to juice one side of it. 598 00:39:32,720 --> 00:39:36,960 I think they're trying to juice the Patriots side here, but it's minus two and a half of 599 00:39:36,960 --> 00:39:43,000 the Patriots, pass minus two and a half over the Jets, take the Patriots. 600 00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:45,000 Again it's our lock of the week. 601 00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:46,000 Chargers. 602 00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:50,520 Even in a pick them at Vikings, take the Chargers. 603 00:39:50,520 --> 00:39:52,800 I think Chargers is the better football team. 604 00:39:52,800 --> 00:39:57,200 Even on the road, even if they're going to have to travel almost cross country. 605 00:39:57,200 --> 00:39:59,720 I just think the Chargers are better. 606 00:39:59,720 --> 00:40:01,920 And I look at position group by position group. 607 00:40:01,920 --> 00:40:06,000 I think an assessment quarterback, I think is Justin Herbert pretty easily. 608 00:40:06,000 --> 00:40:09,200 Receiver I would say lean Vikings here. 609 00:40:09,200 --> 00:40:13,200 Justin Depp was the best receiver on the board, but I think two and three go to the Chargers. 610 00:40:13,200 --> 00:40:18,600 I just think the gap between one and two is bigger than the gap between two and four, 611 00:40:18,600 --> 00:40:23,280 which I think Jordan Addison is probably the fourth best receiver in the game. 612 00:40:23,280 --> 00:40:29,520 And I just think Justin Jefferson to Keenan Allen is a much bigger gap than Keenan Allen 613 00:40:29,520 --> 00:40:30,520 to Jordan Addison. 614 00:40:30,520 --> 00:40:35,800 And so we've got the edge there, a receiver to the Minnesota Vikings. 615 00:40:35,800 --> 00:40:43,160 I think Olanah is the Chargers, running backs the Chargers, tight end groups the Chargers. 616 00:40:43,160 --> 00:40:46,320 Defensive name power is also the Chargers. 617 00:40:46,320 --> 00:40:49,480 I don't want to break either of those groups down defensively because they both suck. 618 00:40:49,480 --> 00:40:53,240 But as far as name power, the Chargers also get that battle as well as the Chargers are 619 00:40:53,240 --> 00:40:54,240 a better football team. 620 00:40:54,240 --> 00:40:58,320 Now that the coaching edge goes to Minnesota, so that can make it interesting. 621 00:40:58,320 --> 00:41:00,960 But I think Tyler for Tyler, the Chargers is just better. 622 00:41:00,960 --> 00:41:03,080 And the game of both teams need the win. 623 00:41:03,080 --> 00:41:04,840 I think Tyler is going to win out here. 624 00:41:04,840 --> 00:41:09,840 So I've got the Chargers. 625 00:41:09,840 --> 00:41:15,800 Bears at Chiefs, Chiefs minus 12 and a half over the Bears take the Chiefs. 626 00:41:15,800 --> 00:41:19,120 Usually I stay away from the big spreads. 627 00:41:19,120 --> 00:41:29,160 It's just asking for one of those weird backdoor covers like it's 34-17 or 34-20. 628 00:41:29,160 --> 00:41:34,240 You know, Chiefs have dominated Bears got a couple of late scores, but it's 34-20. 629 00:41:34,240 --> 00:41:40,080 And then, you know, you get a field goal for some strange mathematical reason with like 630 00:41:40,080 --> 00:41:41,680 six minutes left in the game. 631 00:41:41,680 --> 00:41:46,800 Bears got a field goal and now it's 34-23 and you lose the bet. 632 00:41:46,800 --> 00:41:47,800 That sort of thing. 633 00:41:47,800 --> 00:41:53,360 So, but in this specific game, I legitimately don't think the Bears will score 10 and I 634 00:41:53,360 --> 00:41:56,440 don't see how the Bears keep my homes under 30. 635 00:41:56,440 --> 00:42:02,500 And so a gap of 30 plus to 10 below is at least 20 points, which means a 12 and a half 636 00:42:02,500 --> 00:42:06,160 clean spread is more than comfortable that I'm willing to take the Chiefs there minus 637 00:42:06,160 --> 00:42:08,520 12 and a half. 638 00:42:08,520 --> 00:42:15,080 And then lastly, Buffalo at Washington, Washington plus six and a half take Washington. 639 00:42:15,080 --> 00:42:17,120 I think Washington is going to keep this game fairly close. 640 00:42:17,120 --> 00:42:18,120 I'm not picking him to win. 641 00:42:18,120 --> 00:42:19,120 All right. 642 00:42:19,120 --> 00:42:20,120 I'm not. 643 00:42:20,120 --> 00:42:22,440 But I think it's going to keep the game fairly close. 644 00:42:22,440 --> 00:42:27,560 It would not shock me if this game was, if this game was you look up and it's 34-31, 645 00:42:27,560 --> 00:42:30,760 you know, Bills up, but Washington has the ball trying to tie it in and don't take the 646 00:42:30,760 --> 00:42:31,760 lead. 647 00:42:31,760 --> 00:42:34,440 So it would not shock me with that at all. 648 00:42:34,440 --> 00:42:41,080 If this game had a game turned out. 649 00:42:41,080 --> 00:42:46,080 I just legitimately think that the Washington Commanders have something going on with the 650 00:42:46,080 --> 00:42:47,080 enemy. 651 00:42:47,080 --> 00:42:50,560 He's finding some stuff in Sam Howell. 652 00:42:50,560 --> 00:42:52,600 They're playing really, really good offensive football. 653 00:42:52,600 --> 00:42:58,440 And so I think that the Washington Commanders keep it closer than the experts think, obviously, 654 00:42:58,440 --> 00:43:01,560 but Buffalo ends up taking the victory. 655 00:43:01,560 --> 00:43:03,360 Just to run back through it one more time. 656 00:43:03,360 --> 00:43:08,760 We have Colts minus, I mean sorry, Ravens minus eight over the Colts, Pats minus two 657 00:43:08,760 --> 00:43:13,360 and a half over the Jets in our lock of the week, Chargers in a Pick'em victory over 658 00:43:13,360 --> 00:43:18,200 the Vikings, Chiefs minus 12 and a half over the Bears, Washington plus six and a half 659 00:43:18,200 --> 00:43:20,840 over the Buffalo Bills. 660 00:43:20,840 --> 00:43:45,840 What's up next? 661 00:43:45,840 --> 00:43:53,200 Deion Sanders is the Coach of the Year. 662 00:43:53,200 --> 00:43:57,960 Welcome in to our hot take and you just heard it. 663 00:43:57,960 --> 00:44:02,040 Prime time, Coach Prime Deion Sanders is the Coach of the Year in college football and 664 00:44:02,040 --> 00:44:04,480 I don't think the voting should be close. 665 00:44:04,480 --> 00:44:08,720 First of all, he's already won three times as many games the team did last year. 666 00:44:08,720 --> 00:44:14,640 He's done a complete and total roster overhaul, something unforeseen in the NCAA five years 667 00:44:14,640 --> 00:44:20,720 ago, unimaginable in the NCAA eight months ago. 668 00:44:20,720 --> 00:44:23,400 He's changed the culture of Colorado. 669 00:44:23,400 --> 00:44:28,240 It looks like, I mean just the sights of people willing to go to Boulder, Colorado, because 670 00:44:28,240 --> 00:44:32,120 it's not like it's that much better than Jackson, Mississippi. 671 00:44:32,120 --> 00:44:37,560 It's not, but the money, the fame, the prowess and the attention that a powerful high school 672 00:44:37,560 --> 00:44:43,400 can give is a little bit bigger than Jackson State was able to provide, but just the culture 673 00:44:43,400 --> 00:44:48,720 change as far as going on to Colorado with Coach Prime, this is an overwhelming support 674 00:44:48,720 --> 00:44:50,880 he's getting from many people. 675 00:44:50,880 --> 00:44:55,480 But on the field, they were playing a dirty team on Saturday. 676 00:44:55,480 --> 00:45:00,840 Jay Norville either coaches that team that way or he's condoned them acting that way, 677 00:45:00,840 --> 00:45:03,720 but they were playing a dirty team on Saturday. 678 00:45:03,720 --> 00:45:06,680 They cheap shot at Travis Hunter, lacerated his liver. 679 00:45:06,680 --> 00:45:09,360 They took a couple shots at Shador. 680 00:45:09,360 --> 00:45:11,040 They could look out the end zone. 681 00:45:11,040 --> 00:45:14,400 They had the prime time dance ready for a touchdown. 682 00:45:14,400 --> 00:45:21,360 Also a show and a watch, which has become synonymous with Shador. 683 00:45:21,360 --> 00:45:27,000 They looked they were ready to come for heads that game and ultimately Colorado pulled it 684 00:45:27,000 --> 00:45:30,160 out because Shador is the best player on the field. 685 00:45:30,160 --> 00:45:34,520 But Deion Sanders, Coach Prime is the coach of the year in college football and it's not 686 00:45:34,520 --> 00:45:35,520 close. 687 00:45:35,520 --> 00:45:40,280 I will not allow anyone else to vote for anybody else in first place besides Coach Prime. 688 00:45:40,280 --> 00:45:47,800 What he's doing there is an experiment unforeseen and unimaginable in the NCAA 18 months ago. 689 00:45:47,800 --> 00:45:51,040 That would not have been possible what he's doing right now. 690 00:45:51,040 --> 00:45:56,400 Instead, he's putting on an absolute show at Colorado on the field, off the field. 691 00:45:56,400 --> 00:45:58,680 The attention to Colorado is insane. 692 00:45:58,680 --> 00:46:05,260 They have sold out every single football ticket for the rest of the season in Boulder. 693 00:46:05,260 --> 00:46:07,960 That is the impact that Deion Sanders providing. 694 00:46:07,960 --> 00:46:12,240 Week one, they basically brought in $18 million. 695 00:46:12,240 --> 00:46:16,000 Week two, Leeds against Nebraska was a great game as well. 696 00:46:16,000 --> 00:46:18,560 I'm sorry, week two, he brings in $18 million. 697 00:46:18,560 --> 00:46:25,360 Week three, he has the highest rated, highest streamed game ever and the fifth highest rated 698 00:46:25,360 --> 00:46:30,920 TV football broadcast ever for ESPN with college football. 699 00:46:30,920 --> 00:46:36,440 This Saturday, he goes up against Oregon and then the Saturday after that, at 9 a.m. local 700 00:46:36,440 --> 00:46:42,120 time, he gets to battle Caleb Williams on USC. 701 00:46:42,120 --> 00:46:48,720 Prime has an opportunity to be the easy fix for Coach of the Year after these next few 702 00:46:48,720 --> 00:46:49,720 weeks. 703 00:46:49,720 --> 00:46:50,720 He's already in the fundraise of the year. 704 00:46:50,720 --> 00:46:55,480 It's after Coach Novell talked about Deion's shades. 705 00:46:55,480 --> 00:47:02,320 The company who sells the line has made $4.5 million off of the sunglasses pre-orders. 706 00:47:02,320 --> 00:47:07,000 They found their Michael Jordan networks, their absolute cash cow and gold mine. 707 00:47:07,000 --> 00:47:14,040 But huge, huge respect for what Coach Prime is doing out in Colorado and I cannot wait 708 00:47:14,040 --> 00:47:17,000 to hear him accept his Coach of the Year award. 709 00:47:17,000 --> 00:47:19,840 But that is all I have for today. 710 00:47:19,840 --> 00:47:23,880 I hope you guys have a great rest of your day. 711 00:47:23,880 --> 00:47:48,040 This is your host, Justin Jackson signing out.
