into the show. 43 00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:23,720 Welcome into season five episode 34 of the Justin Time Sports podcast. 44 00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:27,000 As you heard in the intro, I am your owner and host, Justin Jackson. 45 00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:30,200 We're going to have a lot of football today, a lot of NFL, a lot of college football. 46 00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:33,320 If you're a big basketball fan, might not be the episode for you. 47 00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:36,640 However, if you are a big basketball fan, you just want to generally learn about more 48 00:02:36,640 --> 00:02:37,640 football. 49 00:02:37,640 --> 00:02:41,400 This is the spot for you because we're going to dive right into NFL week 16. 50 00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:44,960 We're going to start off with our Monday night preview, Saints at Packers. 51 00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:48,000 Packers are a huge 14 and a half point favorites. 52 00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:52,520 Me personally, I don't see this game being very close. 53 00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:55,920 I'm a WSASaints fan, so we'll keep our eye on it. 54 00:02:55,920 --> 00:02:59,640 Probably watch it for a quarter, quarter and a half, especially Saints keep it competitive. 55 00:02:59,640 --> 00:03:02,880 However, I don't see this game being much struggle for the Packers. 56 00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:08,840 Alva Camara is out, Derek Carr is out, you're looking at the Saints are on the second string 57 00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:11,520 of very below average NFL receivers. 58 00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:16,320 You're looking at Spencer Rattler, who should not be playing NFL football right now or should 59 00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:18,920 not be starting NFL games. 60 00:03:18,920 --> 00:03:26,680 The Saints are doing stuff like sitting in the walk through cooler in an industrial kitchen 61 00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:30,160 to get prepared for the cold because it's like 10 degrees in the cooler. 62 00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:33,800 They went and did the entire rundown, you know, but took about 45 minutes to an hour 63 00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:34,800 sitting in the cooler. 64 00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:37,720 I mean, it's just stuff like that. 65 00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:43,080 They're trying to prep for dome team going to a Green Bay field, a bad dome team going 66 00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:44,080 to the frozen tundra. 67 00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:46,800 This is a recipe for disaster if you're the New Orleans Saints. 68 00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:51,120 If you're the Green Bay Packers, this is a get right, get healthy game. 69 00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:53,600 This is a game that you want to first of all get right. 70 00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:57,160 So if you have a weakness, you say, man, we're really bad. 71 00:03:57,160 --> 00:04:02,760 I think it's not incredibly specific, but all season we've been bad at protecting against 72 00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:05,080 short routes to the field. 73 00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:08,800 You really want to focus in this game on stopping short routes to the field. 74 00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:15,440 You know, if you say, hey, we've been really bad at picking up the backside guy on power 75 00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:16,840 or whatever. 76 00:04:16,840 --> 00:04:18,840 You know, you really want to see that executed today. 77 00:04:18,840 --> 00:04:20,640 So get right game and also get healthy game. 78 00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:24,800 If you have any guys with nicks, injuries or bruises, you strongly consider either restricting 79 00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:30,440 either refusing that to allow them to play or having a heavy body play count on them 80 00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:33,440 rather to ensure that they get out of the game healthy. 81 00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:38,200 So the Packers can use this more of a live practice and New Orleans Saints can use this 82 00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:39,880 as an opportunity to scout for next season. 83 00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:43,480 But like I said, I don't see this game being close by any means. 84 00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:46,880 14 and a half points feels big as far as a bet. 85 00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:50,440 It's a bet I wouldn't make because it is 14 and a half. 86 00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:59,000 That's asking for a 30 to 10 game and you know, Rattler hit a 30 to seven game or 30 87 00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:00,000 to 10 game. 88 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:06,240 Yeah, I had a 30 to 10 game and then the Rattler hit somebody late in the end zone 30 17 and 89 00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:09,240 now you've missed out on a bet even though it wasn't a close game at all. 90 00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:14,160 So 14 and a half is a big feels a bit large to lay down. 91 00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:20,760 However, I do expect this to be to victory for the Packers by at least two touchdowns. 92 00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:28,360 But anyway, let's get into the games that was the Chiefs at the Chiefs battle the Texans 93 00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:30,040 in Kansas City. 94 00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:35,160 This was a very typical Kansas City like game this season where it got to about 10 minutes 95 00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:39,280 left in the fourth and I was saying to myself, I was at a family gathering. 96 00:05:39,280 --> 00:05:42,120 I was saying to myself, Texas got to score here. 97 00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:47,040 If they don't, they're never going to really get a chance at it again. 98 00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:52,120 And the Texan went down didn't get it in and it was just very stereotypical Chiefs. 99 00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:56,600 They just boiled the clock and boiled the clock and boiled the clock and they went into 100 00:05:56,600 --> 00:06:01,380 the fourth of eight and they left the fourth of eight. 101 00:06:01,380 --> 00:06:05,200 They took advantage of a Chiefs team that has a second year head coach and second year 102 00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:10,800 quarterback and also just a situational awareness that the Chiefs have. 103 00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:16,080 We've been doing this for years at this point and the end of that game felt like the end 104 00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:18,480 of a lot of Chiefs close games. 105 00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:20,560 Number one, the Chiefs won. 106 00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:27,400 Number two, the opponent team offense seems to just die on the vine as far as trying to 107 00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:29,360 bounce back. 108 00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:34,320 And number three, it was the prototypical example of how you control the clock and the 109 00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:35,320 ball. 110 00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:41,280 It feels like in three downs, the goal is 10 and it felt like that goal was 11. 111 00:06:41,280 --> 00:06:48,120 They were just barely getting first, barely getting across and it wears down a defensive 112 00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:53,400 unit if you're just, every three plays comes from 11 yards. 113 00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:57,920 You're never behind the chains and you're constantly going forward, but it's not explosive. 114 00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:00,320 You're just on the field. 115 00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:04,400 Absolutely ingenious game played by the Chiefs and execution, especially late. 116 00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:08,360 The Houston Texans, man, that was an opportunity that they're going to look back on and go, 117 00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:11,040 how did we get it done? 118 00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:18,280 We held them pretty much coreless for a good chunk of the game, maybe 30% of the game, 119 00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:19,480 35% of the game. 120 00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:26,000 And you're going to look and be like, how did we lose? 121 00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:28,320 When did we lose? 122 00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:33,480 Is going to be the main kicker. 123 00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:36,520 Because when did we lose and how did we lose? 124 00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:41,480 And that's something that the Chiefs, as a young team, they just got to figure out how 125 00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:42,480 to win. 126 00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:43,480 You know? 127 00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:46,720 Patrick Mahomes came in with Andy Reid. 128 00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:49,760 He had pretty much seen every scenario that he was going to see. 129 00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:53,600 So therefore, he had a little bit more veteran experience to lean on. 130 00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:57,880 Demiga Ryan, the second year head coach, she just got second year quarterback. 131 00:07:57,880 --> 00:08:01,400 They haven't seen anything, everything the NFL is going to throw at them. 132 00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:08,520 And so therefore, they have to continue to work together. 133 00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:14,520 But the Texans, again, a very large missed opportunity that they're going to regret big 134 00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:19,080 time later in the season. 135 00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:27,080 Ravens take down the Steelers in one of, if not the most blood boiled, hate filled college 136 00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:29,280 style rivalry in the NFL. 137 00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:37,160 The Ravens and the Steelers, I don't even think they've conducted an inter-team trade 138 00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:40,800 in over a decade for sure. 139 00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:43,920 I mean, this thing boils down to pure unbridled hatred. 140 00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:49,480 It's like when players change sides, go from Steelers to Ravens, Ravens, Steelers, a la 141 00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:54,000 Patrick Queen, you look at like, oh my God, you're Benedict Arnold. 142 00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:56,800 Like you ain't be worse than Benedict Arnold. 143 00:08:56,800 --> 00:08:59,400 You're just, you're the scum of the earth. 144 00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:03,560 There's 30 other teams out there, why that one? 145 00:09:03,560 --> 00:09:04,640 And it's in the AFC North. 146 00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:08,320 It's the closest division as far as distance. 147 00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:11,880 It's a division with the most, like, I mean, there's several interstates. 148 00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:16,440 You split, you go to one city in the AFC North and the other split and other products that 149 00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:18,440 goes to the other city in the AFC North. 150 00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:21,960 You know, the Cleveland Browns, the original Browns became the Ravens. 151 00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:25,240 And when the new Browns came back, they got the naming rights back. 152 00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:29,240 The original Browns is who the Baltimore Ravens are. 153 00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:35,680 Like there is just tons of history and interconnectedness in that division. 154 00:09:35,680 --> 00:09:40,240 And it's one of those games where records don't matter, momentum don't matter, plays 155 00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:42,920 that don't matter. 156 00:09:42,920 --> 00:09:47,000 They're going to figure it out because there's no tips, there's no trades, there's none of 157 00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:48,000 that. 158 00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:52,200 When the Ravens and the Steelers get together, and it was another great battle. 159 00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:56,680 One Saturday, you saw a lot of Lamar Jackson, you saw a lot of Derrick Henry, Lamar Jackson 160 00:09:56,680 --> 00:10:01,160 and many people's eyes took a step towards the MVP. 161 00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:04,520 In that battle and Russell Wilson, you know, showed some of his limitations. 162 00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:09,000 He threw a bad pick six that cannot happen. 163 00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:16,160 Definitely threw a bad pick six, which was not great. 164 00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:17,720 All but ended the game, truly. 165 00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:21,080 But those two teams battled it out, those two sides battled it out. 166 00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:23,760 Lamar Jackson is a little bit better than Russell Wilson right now. 167 00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:26,920 And that is ultimately the difference. 168 00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:31,600 As great a motivator as Mike Tomlin is, and we'll talk about hard knocks a little bit 169 00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:33,480 more a little bit later. 170 00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:39,480 But you can't make up that level of a talent difference just for pure motivation. 171 00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:41,560 Again, it's a rivalry game. 172 00:10:41,560 --> 00:10:44,760 So you kind of tend to throw out some other stereotypical factors. 173 00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:52,000 But at a certain point, this game is about Jimmy's and Joe's and the Steelers Jimmy's 174 00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:55,640 and Joe's is better than the Ravens Jimmy's and Joe's. 175 00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:59,960 Put that the Ravens Jimmy's and Joe's are just flat out better right now than the Steelers 176 00:10:59,960 --> 00:11:03,880 Jimmy's and Joe's. 177 00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:08,880 All right, moving out of AFC North into the NFC East, the Washington Commanders and a 178 00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:09,880 future Rookie of the Year. 179 00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:15,400 I got that because I told you so, Jayden Daniels dropped 36 on the Eagles. 180 00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:23,720 But here's the thing, they dropped 36 on the Eagles despite having five turnovers. 181 00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:29,920 This is the second game this year where the team has had five turnovers in one. 182 00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:36,200 The Lions overcame five turnovers against the Texans, who we just talked about against 183 00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:40,120 the Eagles and then the Commanders overcome five against the Eagles. 184 00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:44,360 Now some people say Jayden Daniels got knocked out of the game and that's returned it. 185 00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:45,960 The Eagles still scored 33 points. 186 00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:47,160 The Eagles still got five turnovers. 187 00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:53,160 If I scored 33 points and I forced five turnovers, it doesn't matter who the quarterback is, 188 00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:55,760 I should win the game. 189 00:11:55,760 --> 00:11:57,320 But Jayden Daniels kept coming. 190 00:11:57,320 --> 00:11:58,320 He kept coming. 191 00:11:58,320 --> 00:11:59,320 He kept coming. 192 00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:04,000 He refused to lose and showcase off a lot of talent, including his arm and his legs. 193 00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:08,800 If you're the Eagles, you're in the process of holding your breath in a way because Jalen 194 00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:10,680 Hurst is out with a concussion. 195 00:12:10,680 --> 00:12:12,820 Kenny Pickett has injured ribs. 196 00:12:12,820 --> 00:12:17,040 So I'm not even sure who the third quarterback is, but hopefully he's ready to go because 197 00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:24,360 there's a good chance that Hurst is out and Pickett's 50%, you know, or they're both out. 198 00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:29,040 And so you got to hope that he's ready to go. 199 00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:31,200 Maybe we'll win you a couple of football games. 200 00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:35,560 The absolutely spectacular showing by Jayden Daniels. 201 00:12:35,560 --> 00:12:37,160 The rookie of the year race is over. 202 00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:39,600 It was very cute that his bro nixed for a couple of weeks. 203 00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:40,600 That was great. 204 00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:46,960 Now he's got on here and got on the media as for aspirations for having a white guy 205 00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:47,960 be the MVP. 206 00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:48,960 I get it. 207 00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:49,960 I understand. 208 00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:58,920 However, Jayden is undeniable and he was ultimately undeniable last night as he just refused to 209 00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:04,000 give in and to lose against Philadelphia Eagles, especially at home. 210 00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:11,920 The Minnesota Vikings took their show on the road, took their damaging and downright disrespectful 211 00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:15,680 defense on the road to the Seattle Seahawks in a hell of a game. 212 00:13:15,680 --> 00:13:20,680 This is a game that Sam Donald, I say prior to this year, would probably lose this game 213 00:13:20,680 --> 00:13:22,120 about 20. 214 00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:24,240 He won this game. 215 00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:27,520 He played a great football game. 216 00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:31,720 All things considered, the weather was not great. 217 00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:41,520 You had a guy in Geno Smith who felt like he was just going to be this guy today. 218 00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:44,680 Geno Smith made big play after big play. 219 00:13:44,680 --> 00:13:49,600 He ultimately forces Donald in order to be an elite level quarterback in order to win 220 00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:54,320 the game. 221 00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:58,880 Geno Smith goes 31 to 43, three touchdowns, he had two back breaking picks. 222 00:13:58,880 --> 00:14:01,720 Donald goes 22 to 35, two 46, three touchdowns. 223 00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:03,780 He was just incredibly efficient. 224 00:14:03,780 --> 00:14:05,080 He was incredibly on the money. 225 00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:10,720 He had a couple of lasers to Jordan Addison, a beautiful pass to Justin Jefferson. 226 00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:12,040 These passes are not easy. 227 00:14:12,040 --> 00:14:19,560 They were just layered in and lasered in very well by Donald who seems to be loving Kevin 228 00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:20,560 O'Connell's system. 229 00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:27,040 If you're the Seahawks, this doesn't end you, but it hurts. 230 00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:32,160 Doesn't end you, but it hurts. 231 00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:36,080 Because now the Seahawks are down a game. 232 00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:41,320 They have to go win out, in my opinion, to make it to the playoffs. 233 00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:50,120 Winning out the last two games is not hard, but one of those three games happens to be 234 00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:51,960 a Vikings team at home. 235 00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:54,040 You've got to take that game. 236 00:14:54,040 --> 00:15:03,360 So I'll explain it simple, not the world's best loss for the Seahawks, but it's just 237 00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:04,360 not great. 238 00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:10,200 For the Minnesota Vikings, the one seed in the NFC is still very much alive and well, 239 00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:12,680 and they're going to continue to play for that. 240 00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:17,800 However, in much more shocking news, and again, the Vikings being the number one seed contender 241 00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:21,280 before the season would have been mind blowing. 242 00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:25,800 You might have won a lot of money on Fandola ESPN bet had you placed that bet. 243 00:15:25,800 --> 00:15:27,000 However, you didn't. 244 00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:28,640 No one did, not even the Vikings. 245 00:15:28,640 --> 00:15:32,680 So something else that is a little bit more intriguing is the fact that the Cincinnati 246 00:15:32,680 --> 00:15:35,840 Bengals still have a way into the playoffs. 247 00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:44,760 I don't mean like, you know, if a meteor hits the right side of the planet at exactly 9.58 248 00:15:44,760 --> 00:15:48,680 and the Bengals win by exactly 22 points, like, no, no, no, no, no, no, not, not one 249 00:15:48,680 --> 00:15:49,680 of those stories. 250 00:15:49,680 --> 00:16:04,560 I mean, a legitimate path, like they had to win out and then the Broncos lose one game 251 00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:10,960 and then think I forgot it was just the loser game, but it was, I forgot exactly the path 252 00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:12,960 admittedly. 253 00:16:12,960 --> 00:16:18,000 However, it was a very legitimate path to get in. 254 00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:30,920 Let me see if I can find it really quickly. 255 00:16:30,920 --> 00:16:42,320 Maybe not, but the Bengals have a very legitimate shot of getting in. 256 00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:47,400 But first, their first order of business is they have to win out. 257 00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:58,400 Okay, so entering week 17, so entering next week, the Bengals have to win out. 258 00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:00,320 Easy peasy, lemon squeezy. 259 00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:01,320 Okay. 260 00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:04,280 Then the Broncos have a week 18 game versus the Chiefs. 261 00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:06,800 Now that game could be interesting because the Chiefs have the one seed. 262 00:17:06,800 --> 00:17:08,760 It's a good chance they may rest. 263 00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:12,800 Now it's a good chance they may rest their players. 264 00:17:12,800 --> 00:17:18,920 Now if the Chiefs were to lose, let's say to own Christmas Day to Pittsburgh, they would 265 00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:24,980 have to play week 18 to keep the steals, keep the bills away from the one seed. 266 00:17:24,980 --> 00:17:27,560 The Colts have to lose to either the Giants or the Jaguars. 267 00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:30,840 To me, that's the hardest part of the puzzle. 268 00:17:30,840 --> 00:17:34,360 And then the Dolphins have to lose to either the Browns or the Jets. 269 00:17:34,360 --> 00:17:37,520 So it's a path. 270 00:17:37,520 --> 00:17:41,760 It is a slim path. 271 00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:43,920 But it is a path. 272 00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:45,680 And it's a path that is very much on the table. 273 00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:51,520 It actually was a lot less steps in it very recently. 274 00:17:51,520 --> 00:17:55,280 Entering week 16, there was less steps to it, but I think a couple of the losses changed 275 00:17:55,280 --> 00:18:01,360 the scenario and changed a couple of the prediction. 276 00:18:01,360 --> 00:18:05,320 But the Bengals have a chance to get in. 277 00:18:05,320 --> 00:18:08,920 So Burrow and Chase, I think they're going to win out. 278 00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:12,720 Now whether they get the necessary help, we're going to find out. 279 00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:19,360 The Broncos having to lose to the Chiefs specifically is going to make it a little bit harder because 280 00:18:19,360 --> 00:18:27,520 again, if the Chiefs are the ones who locked up, I don't see Andy Reid playing a lot of 281 00:18:27,520 --> 00:18:28,520 his starters. 282 00:18:28,520 --> 00:18:33,560 And then at that point, it's Broncos playing for their lives versus the Chiefs who just 283 00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:35,200 sleepwalking through the game. 284 00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:40,800 But that'd be a very interesting scenario there. 285 00:18:40,800 --> 00:18:43,120 And check out the MVP, the MVP race. 286 00:18:43,120 --> 00:18:45,080 So Saquon Barkley puts his name on it. 287 00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:48,160 I think Lamar Jackson actually took a step forward in the race. 288 00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:49,560 I still think it's between those three. 289 00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:51,400 I don't think anybody's going to come in between those three. 290 00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:53,280 Alan Lamar and Saquon. 291 00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:57,960 I think Saquon was on the way to a hell of a day. 292 00:18:57,960 --> 00:18:59,200 And then Jalen Hurts got hurt. 293 00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:01,400 He kind of threw off the game plan a little bit. 294 00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:03,920 They were able to load the box a little bit more and slow him down. 295 00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:08,040 But I think Saquon was going to kind of one of them days where it's like 220 something 296 00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:09,040 plus. 297 00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:13,720 Eagles win by 20 and you're like, oh, okay, Saquon Barkley's real. 298 00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:15,440 And Zamey Pichon is real. 299 00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:19,120 Josh Allen laid an egg about his standards against the New England Patriots, especially 300 00:19:19,120 --> 00:19:21,000 in that first half. 301 00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:24,800 So Lamar Jackson, while he didn't have the world's best eye popping numbers, he still 302 00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:26,480 got the win over division rival. 303 00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:33,760 And he still had a good enough day where it's going to take somebody to do something his 304 00:19:33,760 --> 00:19:40,640 historic or near historic for Allen to be overtaken in one week. 305 00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:45,960 So huge, huge, huge situation was going down there with the MVP. 306 00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:51,880 So right now my MVP is Lamar, probably second to be Saquon, thirdly to be Josh Allen. 307 00:19:51,880 --> 00:20:15,240 What up next, we're going to shift to NFL week 17. 308 00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:24,240 Welcome into the show and welcome into NFL week 17. 309 00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:28,680 After tonight, we will officially have two weeks left of the regular season. 310 00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:30,280 It gets started on a good Wednesday. 311 00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:36,840 It's already Wednesday as the NFL has now fully, fully ventured into Christmas, trying 312 00:20:36,840 --> 00:20:42,160 to rob the NBA blind of the one foothold it had, which was Christmas Day. 313 00:20:42,160 --> 00:20:49,440 And there's two games on ironically, the four teams are maybe smartly the four teams that 314 00:20:49,440 --> 00:20:54,280 played Saturday play Wednesday because rest wise, that is the equivalent of going from 315 00:20:54,280 --> 00:20:55,280 a Sunday to a Thursday. 316 00:20:55,280 --> 00:20:57,560 They're just shifting everything up a day. 317 00:20:57,560 --> 00:21:00,840 So instead of Sunday, Saturday, so Thursday, it's Wednesday. 318 00:21:00,840 --> 00:21:09,240 But they are the Chiefs go at the Steelers and then the Ravens go at the Texans. 319 00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:12,720 He spoke ad nauseam about both about all four of these teams. 320 00:21:12,720 --> 00:21:16,080 I won't divulge into the team aspect of it. 321 00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:20,440 Neither one of these games are in Jack's pack so I can pick them both. 322 00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:24,360 I think the Chiefs ultimately come out alive against the Steelers and I use the phrase 323 00:21:24,360 --> 00:21:28,480 come out alive very specifically because I think the Steelers are going to make it tough, 324 00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:35,760 rough and physical, especially if there's any sort, any sort of limp in Patrick Mahomes 325 00:21:35,760 --> 00:21:44,440 and get in giddy and hitching his giddy up anything that could be a possible target for 326 00:21:44,440 --> 00:21:45,440 the Baltimore Ravens. 327 00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:48,240 Not the Baltimore Ravens, sheesh, the Pittsburgh Steelers. 328 00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:49,800 I strongly believe they're going to do that. 329 00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:53,640 Now I believe that Mahomes gets it done, but I believe he gets it done ugly and he gets 330 00:21:53,640 --> 00:21:56,400 it done late. 331 00:21:56,400 --> 00:21:59,880 And then the Ravens at the Texans, our other Christmas Day game, Beyonce's performing 332 00:21:59,880 --> 00:22:02,340 at one of these games, not sure which. 333 00:22:02,340 --> 00:22:06,160 This is a game where I'm not sure where the emotions of the Texans are. 334 00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:12,120 You just saw your brother's knee, Tinkdale, get absolutely wrecked and you're, you know, 335 00:22:12,120 --> 00:22:15,880 you just came back from an injury, you're fine, it's only get your feet under you and 336 00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:21,080 then boom, you know, friendly fire, your knees are wrecked and now you're standing up at 337 00:22:21,080 --> 00:22:23,320 an operating table going how did I get here again? 338 00:22:23,320 --> 00:22:29,320 But then if you're the Baltimore Ravens, hey man, you've got to keep chasing down that 339 00:22:29,320 --> 00:22:36,280 division, you know, it's going to be a very aggressive division. 340 00:22:36,280 --> 00:22:40,160 It always has been, always will be, but it's even more so whenever the teams in it are 341 00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:41,160 good. 342 00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:45,040 And so I think that the Ravens are going to have to continue to be physical, continue 343 00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:51,800 to be tough, run the ball with Derrick Henry, use their flowers in the pass game. 344 00:22:51,800 --> 00:22:57,280 You know, it doesn't get much better. 345 00:22:57,280 --> 00:23:02,160 It just doesn't get much better than the Ravens at Texans. 346 00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:05,800 Chiefs at Steelers on Christmas Day back to back, that's pretty dope. 347 00:23:05,800 --> 00:23:10,720 So two huge games, I've got the Ravens in this game, although it's going to be close. 348 00:23:10,720 --> 00:23:14,200 I think it might be a Tucker late field goal kind of close. 349 00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:15,560 It's going to be really close. 350 00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:16,880 Texans are at home. 351 00:23:16,880 --> 00:23:21,320 Again, I wonder about the emotional state, but the Chiefs aren't built to blow anybody 352 00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:22,320 out. 353 00:23:22,320 --> 00:23:27,640 I'm sorry, the Ravens are built to blow people out, but not, you know, from that passing 354 00:23:27,640 --> 00:23:28,640 situation. 355 00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:33,680 So I think D'Amico Ryan is going to try and make Lamar Jackson beat him in the pocket with 356 00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:34,680 his arm. 357 00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:41,200 He's going to open up the opportunity for the receiving corps. 358 00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:45,000 The Broncos at the Bengals, it's in my Jack's pocket, it will not be picked. 359 00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:47,360 This is the game. 360 00:23:47,360 --> 00:23:52,520 This is the game because the Broncos have to lose their last two. 361 00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:53,520 Plan is simple. 362 00:23:53,520 --> 00:23:55,640 Well, the Broncos play the Bengals. 363 00:23:55,640 --> 00:24:03,040 So Bengals win, Broncos lose, that automatically takes one fifth of the scenario down, you 364 00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:07,000 know, and then the Broncos have to turn around and lose again to the Chiefs in week 18. 365 00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:13,240 But the Broncos at the Bengals, I mean, this is one of them. 366 00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:17,520 This has potential to be an all time stinker. 367 00:24:17,520 --> 00:24:19,800 It's going to be a dud. 368 00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:20,800 It's a random moment. 369 00:24:20,800 --> 00:24:23,160 Sean Payton has duds. 370 00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:25,160 Zachary Taylor's life has been a dud. 371 00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:31,880 And it's just there's going to be certain opportunities where you're looking up and 372 00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:34,120 like, man, nothing's really happened for the past 12 minutes. 373 00:24:34,120 --> 00:24:35,120 And this is like, yep. 374 00:24:35,120 --> 00:24:40,280 But then it's going to be just as much, if not more potential for back to back to back 375 00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:42,440 to back explosive plays. 376 00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:49,120 So it is going to be very interesting to see the difference between the Broncos and the 377 00:24:49,120 --> 00:24:50,120 Bengals. 378 00:24:50,120 --> 00:24:51,880 Again, I would not pick this game because it is in Jax pack. 379 00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:58,240 However, it's going to be very intense, very critical games as the Broncos can eliminate 380 00:24:58,240 --> 00:25:03,480 the Bengals from the playoffs. 381 00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:08,880 Packers at Vikings, again, that is not my Jax pack, so I can't pick it. 382 00:25:08,880 --> 00:25:10,800 I've got the Vikings here. 383 00:25:10,800 --> 00:25:15,560 Now this game has been flexed from the noon slot to the 325 slot for central time, one 384 00:25:15,560 --> 00:25:19,160 o'clock to 425 if you're Eastern. 385 00:25:19,160 --> 00:25:29,560 So absolutely tremendous game, tremendous flex by the NFL flexing, flexing the Packers 386 00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:30,560 and the Vikings. 387 00:25:30,560 --> 00:25:33,440 This is going to be a very hotly contested contest. 388 00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:35,920 Again, you're looking at division opponent. 389 00:25:35,920 --> 00:25:40,600 Now it's not as divisional as the NFC North as this is the NFC North. 390 00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:49,640 However, it's still got that Northern mentality where you're going to have to battle, you're 391 00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:50,640 going to have to scrap. 392 00:25:50,640 --> 00:25:52,360 We're talking about hard nosed areas. 393 00:25:52,360 --> 00:25:55,880 Minneapolis is a little glassy to the last game, Green Bay is not. 394 00:25:55,880 --> 00:26:01,160 We're talking about typically hard nosed areas, talking about typically physical areas. 395 00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:04,720 Because of which, in order to win this game, you're going to have to be physical, you're 396 00:26:04,720 --> 00:26:05,720 going to have to be tough. 397 00:26:05,720 --> 00:26:10,880 I think that the Vikings just a little bit tougher right now than the Green Bay Packers, 398 00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:14,760 especially the Packers coming off, which should be a very easy win tonight. 399 00:26:14,760 --> 00:26:20,280 Make them a little lazy, a little comfortable. 400 00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:22,080 Falcons at Commanders. 401 00:26:22,080 --> 00:26:27,160 Now this game is in our Jax pack as well, so we will not pick it. 402 00:26:27,160 --> 00:26:30,480 However, this is a big game for both of these parties. 403 00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:35,640 If you're the Commanders, you have to have locked up your playoff seat with the last 404 00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:36,640 victory. 405 00:26:36,640 --> 00:26:42,440 However, if you are the Falcons, you still have to get in the playoffs. 406 00:26:42,440 --> 00:26:47,160 Your opponent is literally tied with you in terms of record. 407 00:26:47,160 --> 00:26:49,000 I will say opponent, I meant to say competition. 408 00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:53,200 In our competition, I'm looking at Tampa Bay Buccaneers for the Falcons. 409 00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:55,040 Now the Falcons own their way in. 410 00:26:55,040 --> 00:26:56,640 They have the advantage. 411 00:26:56,640 --> 00:26:57,640 They win, they're in. 412 00:26:57,640 --> 00:26:58,640 It's just as simple. 413 00:26:58,640 --> 00:26:59,800 They win their last two, they're in. 414 00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:01,760 There's nothing Tampa can do about it. 415 00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:04,240 They lose one game, it's back in Tampa's hands. 416 00:27:04,240 --> 00:27:06,600 New Orleans is out, Carolina is out. 417 00:27:06,600 --> 00:27:09,960 So it's a two team race for the division. 418 00:27:09,960 --> 00:27:11,600 Both of them will not make it. 419 00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:14,680 The division winner only will make it out of the NFC South. 420 00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:20,200 If you're the Falcons, you're Michael Penny Jr., you have to go win these games because 421 00:27:20,200 --> 00:27:24,320 again you are right there. 422 00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:28,920 You win these last two, you are in the playoffs. 423 00:27:28,920 --> 00:27:32,240 This game would have been cool from a nostalgia perspective because it would have been Kirk 424 00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:35,320 Cousins going back to Washington. 425 00:27:35,320 --> 00:27:38,560 Unfortunately we will not get that so that sucks. 426 00:27:38,560 --> 00:27:49,320 But all in all it's still kind of fun in order to enjoy this game that's going to be. 427 00:27:49,320 --> 00:27:50,320 Like I said, a lot matters. 428 00:27:50,320 --> 00:27:52,760 Washington is trying to clinch their playoff spot. 429 00:27:52,760 --> 00:27:56,280 Atlanta is trying to continue to control their own destiny to win the division and host the 430 00:27:56,280 --> 00:27:57,360 first round playoff game. 431 00:27:57,360 --> 00:28:06,200 So it's an absolutely huge huge huge game with the Falcons at the commanders and then 432 00:28:06,200 --> 00:28:07,880 the Lions at the Niners. 433 00:28:07,880 --> 00:28:09,240 Again another game in Jack's pack. 434 00:28:09,240 --> 00:28:14,440 We would not pick it but this is a game that feels trap gamey. 435 00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:15,800 This feels trap gamey. 436 00:28:15,800 --> 00:28:18,740 If you're the Lions you're guarding against trap game syndrome. 437 00:28:18,740 --> 00:28:21,320 You have the ability to get the number one seed now. 438 00:28:21,320 --> 00:28:22,880 Philadelphia lost. 439 00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:28,920 So now the Lions should have the inside track at getting the number one seed because again 440 00:28:28,920 --> 00:28:33,240 one of your biggest hurdles if not your biggest hurdle was the Philadelphia Eagles. 441 00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:34,320 They lost. 442 00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:39,120 So they lost and their quarterback is concussed. 443 00:28:39,120 --> 00:28:48,880 So it is a double whammy of unfortunateness if you are the Philadelphia Eagles. 444 00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:54,080 However if you're not the Philadelphia Eagles you're in a great spot. 445 00:28:54,080 --> 00:28:56,560 So what I mean is let's go to the NFC. 446 00:28:56,560 --> 00:29:05,660 So the Detroit Lions now are a game up in they're now a game up on the Philadelphia Eagles in 447 00:29:05,660 --> 00:29:11,120 regards to the number one seed and having that inside track to the playoffs. 448 00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:15,280 However they're exactly tied with the Minnesota Vikings. 449 00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:19,360 They own the tiebreaker based on head to head. 450 00:29:19,360 --> 00:29:27,160 So now the Detroit Lions have to win out to win the conference or at least have to match 451 00:29:27,160 --> 00:29:29,380 the Minnesota Vikings. 452 00:29:29,380 --> 00:29:36,240 If the Detroit Lions stumble, the Vikings win out then the Vikings are your number one 453 00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:41,720 seed because their record currently is better than the Philadelphia Eagles too. 454 00:29:41,720 --> 00:29:45,240 The only reason why they're not the second seed is because they happen to be in the same 455 00:29:45,240 --> 00:29:46,240 thing as Detroit. 456 00:29:46,240 --> 00:29:48,280 But guess what? 457 00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:56,080 Week 18 Vikings at Lions for the potential at the number one seed because especially 458 00:29:56,080 --> 00:30:02,760 if Philly loses again for instance but that game could be for all the marbles in the number 459 00:30:02,760 --> 00:30:03,760 one seed. 460 00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:08,200 Absolutely huge, huge game. 461 00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:13,480 But for the San Francisco 49ers this is a gut check kind of game. 462 00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:15,960 This is a gut check kind of game. 463 00:30:15,960 --> 00:30:19,840 What I mean by gut check is you know you're out of the playoffs. 464 00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:21,800 You've been beat up with injuries all year. 465 00:30:21,800 --> 00:30:25,840 But who's going to come and bring their lunch pail to work and still want to fight? 466 00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:29,760 Or who's going to just lay down and roll over and shouldn't be a part of the San Francisco 467 00:30:29,760 --> 00:30:34,280 49ers next season? 468 00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:37,680 That's going to be absolutely huge for the 9-7 evaluation. 469 00:30:37,680 --> 00:30:41,880 And for the Lions you're continuing to again potentially hold the inside track to the one 470 00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:44,320 seed. 471 00:30:44,320 --> 00:31:08,800 But up next we're going to shift our NFL betting segment Jax pack. 472 00:31:08,800 --> 00:31:21,280 Welcome back into the show. 473 00:31:21,280 --> 00:31:25,600 And now we're going to get into NFL Jax pack our NFL betting segment. 474 00:31:25,600 --> 00:31:27,680 An absolutely great week last week. 475 00:31:27,680 --> 00:31:28,680 We went 4-1. 476 00:31:28,680 --> 00:31:29,680 We haven't gone 4-1. 477 00:31:29,680 --> 00:31:30,680 It felt like for a while. 478 00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:33,800 I think we went 3-2 last week. 479 00:31:33,800 --> 00:31:34,800 We had those strings of 2-3. 480 00:31:34,800 --> 00:31:37,280 We had that 1-4 that came out of nowhere. 481 00:31:37,280 --> 00:31:39,880 We had the 1-3 and 1. 482 00:31:39,880 --> 00:31:42,320 It was rough for a few weeks there. 483 00:31:42,320 --> 00:31:47,680 However we got back into our winning ways going 4-1 last week bringing our record to 484 00:31:47,680 --> 00:31:54,240 43 and 34 which get that percentage for you one second. 485 00:31:54,240 --> 00:31:57,920 43 plus 34. 486 00:31:57,920 --> 00:32:01,320 43 divided by 77. 487 00:32:01,320 --> 00:32:02,320 56%. 488 00:32:02,320 --> 00:32:08,600 So we're at 56% which is exactly where we want to be. 489 00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:12,000 Could be in a professional gambler you want to be at 56% or higher. 490 00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:13,000 So we're right at 56%. 491 00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:15,000 We're exactly where we want to be. 492 00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:18,640 We want to keep that going up. 493 00:32:18,640 --> 00:32:22,360 We've all but secured a winning record this season. 494 00:32:22,360 --> 00:32:24,920 We've got week 17 and 18 left. 495 00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:27,840 They know to reset for the playoffs. 496 00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:32,440 But 56% absolutely great year so far. 497 00:32:32,440 --> 00:32:36,960 We're going to keep rolling and we're going to jump right into this thing. 498 00:32:36,960 --> 00:32:38,360 My favorite number of the week. 499 00:32:38,360 --> 00:32:41,440 Bengals minus 3.5 versus the Broncos. 500 00:32:41,440 --> 00:32:42,440 Take the Bengals here. 501 00:32:42,440 --> 00:32:44,000 I'm not sure why it's only 3.5. 502 00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:49,160 To me this should be a 4.5 5 point spread. 503 00:32:49,160 --> 00:32:55,640 The Broncos kind of showed who they were over this past week. 504 00:32:55,640 --> 00:33:00,080 It looks good early as long as Sean Payton can keep both Knicks on script. 505 00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:03,160 The minute it goes off script it goes poorly. 506 00:33:03,160 --> 00:33:05,320 Pat Sertane can't guard everybody. 507 00:33:05,320 --> 00:33:09,960 So when it comes down to Jamar Chase and T Higgins and so on and so forth. 508 00:33:09,960 --> 00:33:13,640 He can only guard Chase and I don't think there really is a guarding Jamar Chase. 509 00:33:13,640 --> 00:33:17,160 I think there's a slowing Chase down. 510 00:33:17,160 --> 00:33:22,640 But I don't think there's ever a guarding Jamar Chase. 511 00:33:22,640 --> 00:33:26,800 But then if he's on Chase who's guarding Higgins. 512 00:33:26,800 --> 00:33:29,720 They kind of showed against Chargers what they were. 513 00:33:29,720 --> 00:33:32,120 In terms of if you can get both Knicks off the script. 514 00:33:32,120 --> 00:33:38,760 If you can get Sean Payton off the play sheet a little bit. 515 00:33:38,760 --> 00:33:39,960 Off the playing script. 516 00:33:39,960 --> 00:33:42,040 Both Knicks tends to go downhill quickly. 517 00:33:42,040 --> 00:33:43,520 That's what we saw. 518 00:33:43,520 --> 00:33:45,000 I think the Bengals are going to pressure him. 519 00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:46,080 Get him off the script. 520 00:33:46,080 --> 00:33:53,280 Make him get off of that 15, 20, 25 play scripts and try to feed both Knicks info. 521 00:33:53,280 --> 00:33:54,760 They went very short against Chargers. 522 00:33:54,760 --> 00:33:59,360 I don't think the Bengals are going to allow that. 523 00:33:59,360 --> 00:34:01,600 So Bengals minus 3.5 over the Broncos. 524 00:34:01,600 --> 00:34:04,480 Take the Bengals. 525 00:34:04,480 --> 00:34:06,900 Bills minus 10 at home versus the Jets. 526 00:34:06,900 --> 00:34:07,900 Take the Bills. 527 00:34:07,900 --> 00:34:09,880 This has the makings for a blowout. 528 00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:11,680 This has the makings for one of those bill games. 529 00:34:11,680 --> 00:34:12,680 You go oh my God. 530 00:34:12,680 --> 00:34:14,600 Only the best team in football. 531 00:34:14,600 --> 00:34:26,000 I mean this has the makings of one of those games where you look and it is 28 to 3 at 532 00:34:26,000 --> 00:34:29,600 halftime and you're like good God. 533 00:34:29,600 --> 00:34:32,520 You know like if the Bills the best team in football. 534 00:34:32,520 --> 00:34:38,160 I mean that is how bad this game can get. 535 00:34:38,160 --> 00:34:40,120 The Jets are a joke. 536 00:34:40,120 --> 00:34:42,760 The Jets had amazingness happen for them. 537 00:34:42,760 --> 00:34:45,600 And they still found a way to only score 9 points. 538 00:34:45,600 --> 00:34:46,600 They're a joke. 539 00:34:46,600 --> 00:34:51,560 I think the Bills are going to take advantage of them being a joke and run right over them. 540 00:34:51,560 --> 00:34:55,520 Josh Allen I think is going to have one of them games where it's like he's the MVP of 541 00:34:55,520 --> 00:34:56,520 the league. 542 00:34:56,520 --> 00:34:57,520 I mean this is a chance. 543 00:34:57,520 --> 00:34:58,520 This is a showcase game. 544 00:34:58,520 --> 00:35:05,840 Remember I talked about how it was a get right get healthy scenario. 545 00:35:05,840 --> 00:35:09,080 If you are, nah I'm just talking about a few people go by. 546 00:35:09,080 --> 00:35:13,200 It was a get right get healthy game where they blow them out the water and get right 547 00:35:13,200 --> 00:35:14,520 and get healthy. 548 00:35:14,520 --> 00:35:17,400 Like you only play for so long. 549 00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:19,720 You really try some stuff for how to get another team. 550 00:35:19,720 --> 00:35:20,720 So on and so on. 551 00:35:20,720 --> 00:35:22,760 That's the kind of game the Bills could have here. 552 00:35:22,760 --> 00:35:23,760 Get right get healthy. 553 00:35:23,760 --> 00:35:28,840 Absolutely blow away the Jets early. 554 00:35:28,840 --> 00:35:32,600 Bills minus 10 take over the Jets. 555 00:35:32,600 --> 00:35:34,240 Vikings minus 1.5 over the Packers. 556 00:35:34,240 --> 00:35:36,980 This is just a belief the Vikings are going to win the game. 557 00:35:36,980 --> 00:35:38,560 It's hard to win by one in the NFL. 558 00:35:38,560 --> 00:35:41,680 I mean 21-20 is like the most common of the scores. 559 00:35:41,680 --> 00:35:45,240 14-13 maybe anything other than that. 560 00:35:45,240 --> 00:35:48,080 It's really hard to win by one. 561 00:35:48,080 --> 00:35:50,320 So if you win by two you cover the spread kind of thing. 562 00:35:50,320 --> 00:35:52,960 So this is a faith that the Vikings are going to win the game. 563 00:35:52,960 --> 00:35:55,760 I get it's in Lambeau. 564 00:35:55,760 --> 00:35:57,440 Get it the Vikings are normally a Dome team. 565 00:35:57,440 --> 00:35:59,680 However they do live in Minnesota. 566 00:35:59,680 --> 00:36:04,800 So practicing I'm sure they practice outside all week. 567 00:36:04,800 --> 00:36:05,800 Turn the AC up in the building. 568 00:36:05,800 --> 00:36:06,800 Like all kind of stuff. 569 00:36:06,800 --> 00:36:15,200 They're trying to almost trick your body into being accustomed to the cold. 570 00:36:15,200 --> 00:36:16,400 Nothing's Lambeau field. 571 00:36:16,400 --> 00:36:17,920 Nothing's quite like the frozen tundra. 572 00:36:17,920 --> 00:36:23,760 However there are some tricks of the trade that you could use to attempt to manufacture 573 00:36:23,760 --> 00:36:24,760 a freeze. 574 00:36:24,760 --> 00:36:30,320 And I think that is what the Vikings did all week. 575 00:36:30,320 --> 00:36:32,120 I think they're just better than the Packers. 576 00:36:32,120 --> 00:36:33,600 Just plain and simple. 577 00:36:33,600 --> 00:36:34,600 Defense travels. 578 00:36:34,600 --> 00:36:37,080 I know the Vikings have a better defense. 579 00:36:37,080 --> 00:36:38,280 I'm going to go with the Vikings here. 580 00:36:38,280 --> 00:36:40,520 Minus one and a half. 581 00:36:40,520 --> 00:36:43,080 Lions minus three and a half at the Niners take the Lions. 582 00:36:43,080 --> 00:36:47,200 The only reason why I'm not circling this as a get right game is because I believe too 583 00:36:47,200 --> 00:36:49,860 much of Koshy and I had to disrespect him that way. 584 00:36:49,860 --> 00:36:51,680 But the Lions have a chance to roll here. 585 00:36:51,680 --> 00:36:53,880 Kind of what they did to the Bears. 586 00:36:53,880 --> 00:36:58,480 They did a fake stumble into a pop pass. 587 00:36:58,480 --> 00:37:03,800 I won't go that far and say that they're going to do that. 588 00:37:03,800 --> 00:37:07,920 However it is very much on the table that they take their shots in this game and they 589 00:37:07,920 --> 00:37:11,920 wear out the 49ers here. 590 00:37:11,920 --> 00:37:16,040 It's in San Fran. 591 00:37:16,040 --> 00:37:21,000 So that leaves a possibility of a home field advantage situation. 592 00:37:21,000 --> 00:37:23,360 However San Fran isn't the frozen tundra. 593 00:37:23,360 --> 00:37:28,120 So as far as home field advantage it's going to be a cool day in San Fran. 594 00:37:28,120 --> 00:37:29,800 Cool day off the Bay. 595 00:37:29,800 --> 00:37:32,760 Not a whole lot of home field advantage there. 596 00:37:32,760 --> 00:37:37,440 I've got the Lions here winning comfortably so that's minus three and a half. 597 00:37:37,440 --> 00:37:39,800 And the Commanders minus four against the Falcons. 598 00:37:39,800 --> 00:37:41,280 The Battle of the quarterbacks. 599 00:37:41,280 --> 00:37:44,400 I believe in Jane Daniels much more than I believe in Michael Pennings Jr. 600 00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:51,120 I believe in what the Commanders are attempting to do a lot better than what the Falcons are 601 00:37:51,120 --> 00:37:52,120 doing. 602 00:37:52,120 --> 00:37:55,840 They feel like they're kind of skipping steps in a plan. 603 00:37:55,840 --> 00:37:59,520 Trying to make sure they're hoping the plan still works. 604 00:37:59,520 --> 00:38:04,280 You look at the angle at which a lot of the throws were for Pennings. 605 00:38:04,280 --> 00:38:07,320 There was a lot of kind of to the sideline type stuff. 606 00:38:07,320 --> 00:38:10,040 I'm sure the Commanders are going to be jumping everything early. 607 00:38:10,040 --> 00:38:13,080 Especially that pass rush and get home. 608 00:38:13,080 --> 00:38:14,360 So it will be a very interesting game. 609 00:38:14,360 --> 00:38:16,480 But I've got the Commanders here minus four. 610 00:38:16,480 --> 00:38:20,800 I think Jane Daniels is going to be the best player on the field. 611 00:38:20,800 --> 00:38:25,720 But just to recap I have Bengals minus three and a half over the Broncos. 612 00:38:25,720 --> 00:38:27,880 Bills minus ten over the Jets. 613 00:38:27,880 --> 00:38:31,040 Vikings minus one and a half over the Packers. 614 00:38:31,040 --> 00:38:33,840 Lions minus three and a half over the Niners. 615 00:38:33,840 --> 00:38:37,160 Commanders minus four over the Falcons. 616 00:38:37,160 --> 00:39:01,000 And up next we're going to shift to college football and talk about that 12 team playoff. 617 00:39:01,000 --> 00:39:07,800 Welcome back into the show. 618 00:39:07,800 --> 00:39:12,400 And now we're going to get into the college football playoff round one. 619 00:39:12,400 --> 00:39:14,240 Now this was an interesting situation. 620 00:39:14,240 --> 00:39:22,440 I was kind of torn and going back and forth how I wanted to even come at this topic. 621 00:39:22,440 --> 00:39:29,040 But I just decided to go with the general, a lot of the narrative I've been saying. 622 00:39:29,040 --> 00:39:32,200 A lot of the narrative I've been saying out there is oh my god the 12 team playoff is 623 00:39:32,200 --> 00:39:40,920 so bad and look at these blowouts and so on and so forth. 624 00:39:40,920 --> 00:39:43,200 Let's back it up. 625 00:39:43,200 --> 00:39:50,040 In college football the gap between five and 12 is a lot bigger than the NFL between five 626 00:39:50,040 --> 00:39:51,040 and 12. 627 00:39:51,040 --> 00:39:53,080 Let's start off with that. 628 00:39:53,080 --> 00:39:56,040 Let's start off with that. 629 00:39:56,040 --> 00:39:59,120 Secondly I don't mind the 12 team playoff. 630 00:39:59,120 --> 00:40:01,040 I'm actually a huge fan of the 12 team playoff. 631 00:40:01,040 --> 00:40:04,880 I felt like in certain scenarios an expanded playoff would have been good. 632 00:40:04,880 --> 00:40:08,960 I'm thinking the year TCU ends up in the National Championship game against Georgia. 633 00:40:08,960 --> 00:40:13,320 I think TCU might have got weeded out earlier. 634 00:40:13,320 --> 00:40:18,000 I'm thinking LSU Alabama game of the century part two. 635 00:40:18,000 --> 00:40:21,840 Where LSU Alabama are playing each other again in the National Championship game without 636 00:40:21,840 --> 00:40:23,440 anybody else having a shot at it. 637 00:40:23,440 --> 00:40:27,120 I think that would have been a good year for an expanded playoff. 638 00:40:27,120 --> 00:40:30,880 LSU smashing Oklahoma smithereens in 2019. 639 00:40:30,880 --> 00:40:34,840 I think that would have been a good year for expanded playoffs. 640 00:40:34,840 --> 00:40:41,360 There's been scenarios where an expanded playoff is useful in this spot. 641 00:40:41,360 --> 00:40:43,000 To me it's always been official. 642 00:40:43,000 --> 00:40:47,880 It's always to me a matter of how it was going to get done. 643 00:40:47,880 --> 00:40:49,520 I don't mind the 12 teams that are in. 644 00:40:49,520 --> 00:40:51,960 I'm perfectly fine with that. 645 00:40:51,960 --> 00:40:55,760 Because if you're going to tell me the SEC deserves to get in because one team has three 646 00:40:55,760 --> 00:41:00,560 losses and the other has two, you better have damn good three losses. 647 00:41:00,560 --> 00:41:06,560 When each one of your losses is getting smashed by Oklahoma and losing to Vanderbilt and then 648 00:41:06,560 --> 00:41:11,000 the other one you got smashed by somebody else that was under ranked. 649 00:41:11,000 --> 00:41:14,120 Like Ole Miss and Bama have horrible losses. 650 00:41:14,120 --> 00:41:19,680 Two of the three losses Bama has is to Vanderbilt and getting thrashed by a five win Oklahoma 651 00:41:19,680 --> 00:41:20,680 team. 652 00:41:20,680 --> 00:41:25,680 It's not like the other loss game of Texas, Georgia and Tennessee. 653 00:41:25,680 --> 00:41:27,880 The three playoff teams. 654 00:41:27,880 --> 00:41:32,040 You're like okay well everybody else lost them too. 655 00:41:32,040 --> 00:41:33,040 That's a better scenario. 656 00:41:33,040 --> 00:41:37,440 But getting thrashed by Vandy and Oklahoma. 657 00:41:37,440 --> 00:41:38,440 Shut your mouth. 658 00:41:38,440 --> 00:41:41,520 So I'm perfectly okay with the 12 who are in. 659 00:41:41,520 --> 00:41:45,440 The issue is how the 12 were seeded. 660 00:41:45,440 --> 00:41:47,120 I think you need to put the 12 teams in. 661 00:41:47,120 --> 00:41:56,720 So you have the five champions, the four power four champions and the group of five champion. 662 00:41:56,720 --> 00:41:59,800 And then you have your seven and largest. 663 00:41:59,800 --> 00:42:05,520 Once those 12 are put together I think you re-seed from there. 664 00:42:05,520 --> 00:42:09,360 I dislike the buy rule. 665 00:42:09,360 --> 00:42:10,960 Top four conference champions get a buy. 666 00:42:10,960 --> 00:42:13,360 I dislike that rule. 667 00:42:13,360 --> 00:42:16,940 Because you punish the better conference. 668 00:42:16,940 --> 00:42:26,080 So like Arizona State and Boise State are buy teams because they're a conference champion 669 00:42:26,080 --> 00:42:32,440 but they're not as good as Texas and Penn State who had to play first round games. 670 00:42:32,440 --> 00:42:36,200 And Notre Dame had to play a first round game. 671 00:42:36,200 --> 00:42:37,880 Those would have been the four teams in the buy. 672 00:42:37,880 --> 00:42:44,200 The buy should have been Oregon, Georgia, Notre Dame, Texas. 673 00:42:44,200 --> 00:42:45,920 Those should have been the four teams with buys. 674 00:42:45,920 --> 00:42:48,400 I think Penn State would have had to play a first round game. 675 00:42:48,400 --> 00:42:49,520 Boise State would have hosted. 676 00:42:49,520 --> 00:42:52,160 Arizona State would have hosted. 677 00:42:52,160 --> 00:42:53,640 But those would have been the first round team with buys. 678 00:42:53,640 --> 00:43:02,960 It makes no sense why you are rewarding weaker conferences. 679 00:43:02,960 --> 00:43:03,960 That doesn't do any good. 680 00:43:03,960 --> 00:43:05,880 So I'm fine with the 12 who are in. 681 00:43:05,880 --> 00:43:09,920 I just dislike how the buys were handed out. 682 00:43:09,920 --> 00:43:16,200 Because I think that if the first round battle is instead of SMU freezing in Happy Valley. 683 00:43:16,200 --> 00:43:18,600 Oh that might not so happen. 684 00:43:18,600 --> 00:43:24,640 Instead of Tennessee at Ohio State that game very well could have been Tennessee at Boise 685 00:43:24,640 --> 00:43:25,640 State. 686 00:43:25,640 --> 00:43:27,600 Okay now let's see. 687 00:43:27,600 --> 00:43:32,040 That game could have very well been SMU at Arizona State. 688 00:43:32,040 --> 00:43:37,200 You know I'm trying to think of what the other game was. 689 00:43:37,200 --> 00:43:41,080 Notre Dame, who they thrash, Indiana. 690 00:43:41,080 --> 00:43:48,240 That game could have been Indiana at Boise State. 691 00:43:48,240 --> 00:43:49,240 Okay let's see what I'm saying. 692 00:43:49,240 --> 00:43:56,760 So you may not have had the sticker price in the first round. 693 00:43:56,760 --> 00:44:02,880 However it would have very much been an intriguing first round. 694 00:44:02,880 --> 00:44:09,520 And then the winner of those games then you start running into your dogs. 695 00:44:09,520 --> 00:44:10,640 Your sticker shot guys. 696 00:44:10,640 --> 00:44:11,640 Your Penn State. 697 00:44:11,640 --> 00:44:12,640 Your Notre Dames. 698 00:44:12,640 --> 00:44:14,400 Your Ohio State's etc. 699 00:44:14,400 --> 00:44:17,360 Because to me there's two teams that are going to get outclassed in the playoff. 700 00:44:17,360 --> 00:44:21,960 That's Boise State and Arizona State. 701 00:44:21,960 --> 00:44:24,600 They're just going to get outclassed in these games and there's not really much they can 702 00:44:24,600 --> 00:44:25,600 do about it. 703 00:44:25,600 --> 00:44:30,360 It's not the fact that Texas has Arizona State and a new Titan Peach Bowl. 704 00:44:30,360 --> 00:44:34,000 Texas is going to roll. 705 00:44:34,000 --> 00:44:36,280 Penn State draws Boise in their Fiesta Bowl. 706 00:44:36,280 --> 00:44:37,520 Penn State should dominate them. 707 00:44:37,520 --> 00:44:40,600 Ashton Gentry is good but he's by himself. 708 00:44:40,600 --> 00:44:45,880 So it's like and then Ohio State and Oregon rematch that classic game is going to be in 709 00:44:45,880 --> 00:44:46,880 the Rose Bowl. 710 00:44:46,880 --> 00:44:51,240 Ironically a traditional Pac-12 team and a traditional Big Ten team are going to meet 711 00:44:51,240 --> 00:44:52,640 in the Rose Bowl. 712 00:44:52,640 --> 00:44:53,640 That's fun. 713 00:44:53,640 --> 00:44:56,680 And then Notre Dame plays Georgia in the Sugar. 714 00:44:56,680 --> 00:45:01,920 This game is very stereotypical Georgia draws as the SEC team draws the Sugar. 715 00:45:01,920 --> 00:45:03,800 Usually versus an at large opponent. 716 00:45:03,800 --> 00:45:08,240 Doesn't get much more at large than an independent in Notre Dame. 717 00:45:08,240 --> 00:45:13,240 So these are going to be incredibly interesting games. 718 00:45:13,240 --> 00:45:17,680 Texas even having to play two games is kind of rough. 719 00:45:17,680 --> 00:45:21,080 Same way in my opinion with Notre Dame. 720 00:45:21,080 --> 00:45:25,480 Because to me Notre Dame drawing Georgia when they probably should have had the bye and 721 00:45:25,480 --> 00:45:27,920 then drew Boise. 722 00:45:27,920 --> 00:45:31,120 It's a little bit different feel to the playoff. 723 00:45:31,120 --> 00:45:32,760 So I'm fine with the 12. 724 00:45:32,760 --> 00:45:34,440 The 12 is not the issue. 725 00:45:34,440 --> 00:45:38,400 The issue is how the 12 are seeded. 726 00:45:38,400 --> 00:45:42,200 What winning a weaker conference could give you. 727 00:45:42,200 --> 00:45:43,200 And that's the part I don't like. 728 00:45:43,200 --> 00:45:46,440 I think you need to clean up how and not necessarily what. 729 00:45:46,440 --> 00:45:48,120 12-10 is fine. 730 00:45:48,120 --> 00:45:55,000 Just clean up how the seeding is arranged. 731 00:45:55,000 --> 00:45:57,640 But up next we're going to talk about best for last. 732 00:45:57,640 --> 00:46:20,520 There's going to be a quick discussion on Hard Knocks. 733 00:46:20,520 --> 00:46:25,520 Welcome back into the show. 734 00:46:25,520 --> 00:46:27,080 Welcome to our best for last segment. 735 00:46:27,080 --> 00:46:29,960 We're going to talk about hard knocks today. 736 00:46:29,960 --> 00:46:35,360 DNFL in season hard knocks at that covering the AFC North. 737 00:46:35,360 --> 00:46:42,360 If I was the Bengals or the Browns, specifically the Bengals, I would have fought to blow this 738 00:46:42,360 --> 00:46:43,360 up. 739 00:46:43,360 --> 00:46:46,280 I would have fought against this with everything I had. 740 00:46:46,280 --> 00:46:48,320 Mike Tomlin and John Harbaugh. 741 00:46:48,320 --> 00:46:53,080 Oh my god, compared to Kevin Stefanski and Zach Taylor, specifically Zach Taylor. 742 00:46:53,080 --> 00:46:55,320 Kevin Stefanski holds his own. 743 00:46:55,320 --> 00:47:00,160 But against Zach Taylor, it's like my god. 744 00:47:00,160 --> 00:47:06,160 Mike Tomlin is all business, all the time, leader of men. 745 00:47:06,160 --> 00:47:11,840 It was his pre-practice, pre-meeting, like a little three minute hype speech and I was 746 00:47:11,840 --> 00:47:14,280 like about to run through a wall. 747 00:47:14,280 --> 00:47:20,680 John Harbaugh feels like the uncle that you know is right. 748 00:47:20,680 --> 00:47:22,160 He delivers it kind of cornerly. 749 00:47:22,160 --> 00:47:24,840 But you know he's a thousand percent right. 750 00:47:24,840 --> 00:47:27,880 He's going to do what he wants to do. 751 00:47:27,880 --> 00:47:34,480 Kevin Stefanski is the older brother who's really smart and left to go to college when 752 00:47:34,480 --> 00:47:35,480 you were young. 753 00:47:35,480 --> 00:47:37,680 Now he comes back with all this knowledge. 754 00:47:37,680 --> 00:47:38,680 He knows what to do. 755 00:47:38,680 --> 00:47:40,400 He just doesn't know how to necessarily apply it. 756 00:47:40,400 --> 00:47:41,400 It just goes to the left. 757 00:47:41,400 --> 00:47:43,640 But he knows exactly what he wants to happen. 758 00:47:43,640 --> 00:47:45,880 And then Zach Taylor is the useless slug on the side of the wall. 759 00:47:45,880 --> 00:47:47,800 I don't understand why Zach Taylor is in this. 760 00:47:47,800 --> 00:47:49,680 I don't understand why he has a job. 761 00:47:49,680 --> 00:47:52,680 He doesn't motivate you and he's not good at coaching. 762 00:47:52,680 --> 00:47:54,360 He's not good at situational coaching. 763 00:47:54,360 --> 00:47:58,160 I'm not sure how he has a job at this point. 764 00:47:58,160 --> 00:47:59,880 But he does. 765 00:47:59,880 --> 00:48:01,240 Whatever. 766 00:48:01,240 --> 00:48:07,080 But it definitely shows even in a division like the North, the anti-North, that's so 767 00:48:07,080 --> 00:48:10,360 interconnected and so intertwined. 768 00:48:10,360 --> 00:48:15,560 So much of their history loops over this one and loops over that one. 769 00:48:15,560 --> 00:48:18,480 It's just wild, right? 770 00:48:18,480 --> 00:48:24,960 And so that is, you know, it's fun to watch it kind of unfold. 771 00:48:24,960 --> 00:48:27,400 Especially because it's in season. 772 00:48:27,400 --> 00:48:31,760 So you kind of get them adjusting week to week as far as a real game and not just preseason 773 00:48:31,760 --> 00:48:32,760 or roster situations. 774 00:48:32,760 --> 00:48:34,360 It is a real game scenario. 775 00:48:34,360 --> 00:48:40,080 Especially because it's still going to be in division the entire show. 776 00:48:40,080 --> 00:48:41,280 They're going to be playing somebody in the division. 777 00:48:41,280 --> 00:48:43,280 So that's going to be fun. 778 00:48:43,280 --> 00:48:48,440 It's going to be fun to continue to keep watching it and enjoying it with the rest of you. 779 00:48:48,440 --> 00:48:52,280 But that is all I have for the day. 780 00:48:52,280 --> 00:48:53,280 Whole lot of football talk. 781 00:48:53,280 --> 00:48:55,360 Sorry about basketball guys, but a whole lot of football talk. 782 00:48:55,360 --> 00:48:59,840 We'll talk a little basketball probably later in the week, especially after the NBA Slater 783 00:48:59,840 --> 00:49:00,840 games on Christmas. 784 00:49:00,840 --> 00:49:02,960 We'll talk a little basketball. 785 00:49:02,960 --> 00:49:04,680 But shout out Paige and Juju. 786 00:49:04,680 --> 00:49:09,440 I will mention that on a hell of a showdown between those two. 787 00:49:09,440 --> 00:49:11,440 And USC took down UConn. 788 00:49:11,440 --> 00:49:18,960 Hell of a showdown between two future pillars of the women's game. 789 00:49:18,960 --> 00:49:23,200 But again, that is all I have for you guys today. 790 00:49:23,200 --> 00:49:52,320 This is your host, Justin Jackson signing out.
