NFC South Opener And Bucs-Falcons Line

SPEAKER_05

Let me ask you one question. You got to get the note for the door.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, yes, it's already over the work of the last one. George George.

SPEAKER_04

Anyway, and Mike both stick and eight and the dear George is officially come to an end. As Justin was three and eleven.

SPEAKER_01

I would have been 11 and 3 if I was just picking direct.

SPEAKER_04

That's true. Alright. Overall, I'm at 112 and 95. Mike is 103 and 104. Jimmy 97 and 110, and Justin 91 and 106. Alright, we got one tonight. NFC South. The dang Bucks, man, laid an egg. But you have room to lay eggs in the NFC South. Right. But I'm up. This is just to get into the playoffs, to lose at home in the first round.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

I actually think Carolina had a shot has a shot to upset somebody, but not the Bucks. But they're taking on the Falcons. The Falcons are getting four and a half on the road. Bucks have activated Mike Evans, by the way. That is, and um I'm pretty sure Drake London's out.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

So, you know, this is one of those you gotta, if Mike Evans is playing, I'm gonna go, I'm gonna take the Bucks. You know, coming off an ugly, ugly home loss. They gotta respawn on store week and cover this four and a half spread.

SPEAKER_02

Jimmy? Yeah, I'll take them. I'll take the Bucs as well. Okay. They gotta win. Yeah. I mean, that's it. You lose this game. Right. You find it.

SPEAKER_04

I'm taking, I think they're gonna come out and win by a touchdown. Yeah, Kirk Cousins is it. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. But who knows? You saw last week. Right, who knows? You you fucking lose to the Saints, man. You're this is NFC South. Yeah. What do you think there, uh, Justin? I'm going back to Justin.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, yeah. Uh the summer of George lasted for two weeks. Um, yeah, no, the the NFC South is basically like the ACC at this point. Yep. That's what Jimmy said. It's really, it's like the ACC, but uh, the NFL. With uh with Evans coming back um and the Falcons being the shit show that they are, it it's kind of hard not to pick Baker and the Bucks. So I'm gonna roll with the Bucs.

Texans’ Defense And Cardinals Spread

SPEAKER_04

All right. No Mike today, he's gonna send his picks in. He's probably gonna want the Falcons if I know Mike. I mean, take the Birds, big. Um, let's go to Sunday. Let's go to Houston, man. How about them Texans, man? They put it on the Chiefs. That defense is for real, the number one defense in the NFL. Yeah. And they change the game. They they dominate the game. And that's a team you don't want to face in the playoffs. Right, just because of that defense. Right. You don't want any part of that. And then and like it. You know, and then straight up. I would not be surprised. I would that's what I'm saying. I would not be surprised. Uh D'Amico Ryan's hell of a job. They they scheme it up, man. They scheme it up well. They're gonna be hosting the Cardinals, the daggum Cardinals, getting nine and a half.

SPEAKER_02

Jimmy. That's a lot of points, but you know what? Like you said, the defense. Um, I'm gonna take the Texans to cover that. We Cardinals are they're done, man. Yeah. It's starting to be like, all right, let me just make sure I make it through this season. Guys are gonna shut it down. That's pathetic.

SPEAKER_04

I mean, all right, all right, Justin, who you got?

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, the uh the summer of Jacoby Brissett ended about as abruptly as my summer of George. Yep. Um, and like like Jimmy said, dude, uh, they're they're completely checked out. These guys are already booking their their vacations. Yep. Oh man. I don't see the Texans giving up more than three points to the Cardinals in this game. I take the under. So I'll I'm taking that big fat nine and a half spread, dude. Give me the Texans.

SPEAKER_04

I'm with you, man. I hate like I I can't pick the Cardinals. Nope. But the Texans are playing for their playoff live still. I mean, it's yeah, they need they need this game. So, and that defense, ooh, man. Yeah, good luck, Jacoby.

SPEAKER_01

Dude, it might be the best defense since that.

Bills-Patriots Pick’em And Coaching Talk

SPEAKER_04

I mean, they can't run the ball, they can't run the ball, man. So they're just gonna tee off, man. It's gonna oof. All right, gimme Houston in that one by double digits. All right, let's go to the AFC East, man. This is a great one. Uh the the Pats, Drake May, are hosting Josh Allen and the Bills. Last time they played, New England went into Buffalo, won the game. Buffalo wants revenge. If they have any shot of catching them, they have to have this. The Bills need it regardless to keep pace and to keep up on the teams behind them in the AFC playoff picture. New England's playing for home field against Denver. There's a lot going on in this game. The Pats are getting one at home. Justin, what do you got?

SPEAKER_01

Oh god, my my two favorite teams.

SPEAKER_04

Are we getting the tables or I got them ready?

SPEAKER_01

Let's see. One point spread in New England. It's a pick'em game. Yeah, it's basically a pick'em game. I think the Bills need it more. So get the tables. Give me the bills.

SPEAKER_04

Table. All right. Jimmy. I'm I'm kind of surprised they're dogs at home. I mean. Not me. I think exactly what Justin said. Yeah, yeah. I mean, Vegas is still looking at New England's still a young team. I think I'm gonna take the Bills, man. They lost to the Raiders still in the same season. That's hard to believe.

SPEAKER_02

I just think for every reason that Justin said, I think I think I'm gonna take the Bills. But I got a question. If the Patriots win this, I'm taking the Pats. Drake May. I think the Pats are better. Is he not sitting at your favorite for MVP?

SPEAKER_04

If you're giving him a point at home, or you're making it a pick'em at home, I'm gonna take him. I I don't like what I've seen of the Bills.

SPEAKER_02

No, I mean they're up and down. I mean, they're just Josh Allen. Yeah, that's all it is. It's just Josh Allen putting on his beef.

SPEAKER_04

It's just like the Broncos before they fired uh Dan Reeves. Yeah. You know? And they were good. They always made it, but they just eventually got their ass kicked to do that. And they need snow games. They need a they need a Shanahan, man. They need their coach. Yeah. They need like an offensive guy that coaches Josh Allen because it looks like it's Josh Allen and and just a bunch of scrubs. Right now they got Joe Brady. Right?

SPEAKER_01

So you know, you know, who's available where Josh Allen thrived under his old Brian Dable.

SPEAKER_04

I was saying the same thing, man. Honestly, why not? Anyway, I'm going with the Pats here. I'll take that, I'll take that point at home. Um, let's go to New York. Uh the Giants suck now that they're not playing Jameis. They have no hope, right?

SPEAKER_01

No reason to go to New York.

SPEAKER_04

There's no reason to play Jackson Darden case. I mean, it's just for to justify the draft pick. I mean, he is your young quarterback. You want to see if he has something. I get it. You know, because if he is really good, you have him on a rookie deal.

SPEAKER_01

Because that's the we're about to see him get CTE if he's gonna be able to get a lot of things. Yeah, I know.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, so good. Get the shit kicked out of him before he can even determine anything.

SPEAKER_04

Right. So, but that would be good for the Giants' chances if he didn't play, honestly. The way that you know, both core at this point in their career, I'd much rather, if they were trying to win the actual game, they would play Jameis. Yeah, but they have no chance at anything, but they're not. They're better off with losing and getting a better draft pick. Uh, but Washington sucks. Yeah, Washington's horrible. I don't know who to pick in this. So I'm asking you, Jimmy, who you got?

SPEAKER_02

So what's the what's the spread of this?

SPEAKER_04

Two? So it's basically. Yeah, the the command is you know what?

SPEAKER_02

I'm I'm gonna just take the commies just because the Giants, I mean, they're not trying. Yeah, I mean, either are the commanders, but it takes the points.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, take the two points and see what happens. See what happens. This team got shut out in Minnesota last week, right? So they're gonna go on the road again. I'll take the Giants. Jameis might get in. That's my reasoning. I mean, Jackson Dart, like like Justin said, he might knock himself out.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, it's true. You know what? Let me do that flip. I'm gonna take the gender flip.

SPEAKER_04

Screw it. All right, all right, Justin, who you got?

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, I'm I'm taking the giant stick, but I'm not uh commie bastard.

SPEAKER_01

I'm a capitalist.

Giants-Commanders Tank Talk And Picks

SPEAKER_04

Hell yeah. Give me the giant space. Yes, sir. Um, let's move on to Cincinnati. The AFC. Yeah, the AFC North is the NFC South of the AFC. That's right. This year and the AC, the other ACC, yeah, it's the ACC coast.

SPEAKER_03

Right this year.

SPEAKER_04

Goodness gracious, the Ravens now are going to Cincinnati. These teams just matched up, and the Bengals put it on them 32-14. The Bengals lost by five covering by that hook, and but they were putting up points, they couldn't stop anybody, but they're playing against Lamar Jackson, and they were able to stop him. Something's wrong with him. He's stopping himself. Yeah, I'm I benched him on my fantasy team, which is crazy to think. And uh I'm gonna go Bengals here at home. They're getting two and a half. I'll take that. Justin.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, no, something's off with Lamar. I don't I I don't know what it is. And uh the I mean the Ravens just sort of like seem to be circling the drain while the Bengals seem to be getting their shit together a little bit with with Burrow back and those weapons, dude. I'm I'm taking the Bengals too.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah. It's like a bad Tennessee team where they just have Derrick Henry, you know, and yeah.

SPEAKER_01

You might as well be Ryan Tannehill handed off to this.

SPEAKER_04

Right. And uh, okay, so you're gonna take the Bengals to uh Jimmy.

SPEAKER_02

I'm gonna take the Bengals as well. All right, so you're there is some shit going around on the internet. I don't know how this could be. I mean, this is if you want Lamar to this is the defense you want to go with. I think these I think these kid dudes have quit on John Harbaugh. And that that's the hot rumor right now is that he's you know as years, years of of players just wanting this guy out.

SPEAKER_01

Well, this is just getting tired of winning 11 games ago. Yeah, right. Well, he'll he'll find out of here.

Bengals-Ravens Trends And Harbaugh Rumors

SPEAKER_04

Dude, he'll find a fucking job easy. Yeah. Probably Miami. Yeah, he'll find a job easy. Kidding me. But yeah, I'm telling I'm taking the Bengals. But I would not that seems about right, man. And like that, all you have to do is do what they're doing this year. Yeah. And they'll fire his ass. I think he's done after this year now. But there's I was already thinking that, you know. He's been there a while, man. Right. Mike Tomlin is gonna do it again. Yeah. The Steelers are gonna do it again. I mean, I know that they a lot he they get a lot of heat, but it's it's it's impressive, man, to be this consistent. Um, but that they lost the. But we're all going, we're all going Bengals here. We we're giving up on the Ravens. Yeah. All right.

SPEAKER_01

So they're not gonna make the playoffs.

SPEAKER_04

Steelers are gonna get into the playoffs. All right. Um, let's go to Kansas City. This will be a fun game. Um, it's at one o'clock, man. How about that? Ooh. Chargers. Chargers Chiefs at one o'clock, man. What's that local time? That's like 11? Uh no, it's like noon. It's uh Midwest. Kansas City's on Midwest. It's central. So it's uh it's at noon. But yeah, man, that that yeah. It's East Central. So you got West Coast to Central Coast, Central Coast Coast.

SPEAKER_01

SPEAKER_04

All right, this uh the Chargers are getting five in Kansas City. You kidding me? I mean, I I actually I don't know how the the Chargers they got four picks from Jalen Hurts on Monday night. One at the end. Yeah. And they still barely won. They're be they're may like this was I don't know how they're gonna block anybody. You know, and the Chiefs. They haven't been blocking anybody all year. Yeah, I'm I'm I'm gonna take the Chiefs. That gummit, minus five? Yeah. Like can't that like this is it. I mean, they're just not giving up on the Chiefs. Vegas isn't. Justin.

SPEAKER_01

Five and a half against Pat Machines. No, it's five. It's five. Still with Pat Mahomes, man.

SPEAKER_04

I I I can't bet against I'm Pat Mahomes isn't throwing four picks. That's what that's my thought process, is he's not gonna throw four picks, right? They have to have it. They're at home.

SPEAKER_01

But he threw three picks just the other week. Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

All right, yeah, I know, but I I don't I don't trust that uh offensive line. No, I'm still taking them.

SPEAKER_01

All that being said, I'm still.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, against the Jets. They're hosting them. The Jets are getting 13 in Duval. 13, bro.

SPEAKER_02

Jags are hot though. Who's playing QB for the Jets? It might not even be Tyrod.

SPEAKER_04

I think I'm gonna go Jags here. Although, yeah, uh, yeah. Yeah, I think I'm gonna go Jags. They need it. Um give me the Jags. Win big. Justin.

SPEAKER_01

Dude, I I I can't believe I'm about to say this, but I'm egg to win by two touchdowns. Bro, like they love.

Chiefs-Chargers Line And Mahomes Trust

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, and if if Trevor Lawrence just manages the game, yeah, you know, does just completes the easy stuff, don't screw it up, man. Eli Manning that shit. Right. And they can they can just off and throw to your tight end. Right. They have a really good defense. And they got uh the the trade to get uh the receiver, what's his name? Myers. Yep, Myers. Great, great, great move. Yeah, great move. They ever since they got rid of your boy at GM. Yeah. Trent Balke. They got rid of him. Guy fucking sucks, man. Yeah, and they've been that's uh they've been making good moves.

SPEAKER_01

And uh this is Balkey can evaluate a shortstop though, man. Yeah, this is a man, this is a team, yeah.

SPEAKER_04

This is a team that uh lost that blew a game to to the Texans, and ever since then they've just been playing really good. I'll go, I'm gonna go Jags too. Jimmy, you got the Jags?

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, I mean I think the Jets are gonna be on their third string QB. They already suck. So right. 13's a lot, though. Yeah, two touchdowns. Yeah, all right.

SPEAKER_04

Let's go to uh Philly. The Eagles, man. Yeah, exactly. They're hosting the Raiders.

SPEAKER_02

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_04

Come on, man. Uh Phillies, uh Vegas is getting 11 and a half. Justin, how do you see it?

SPEAKER_01

I can't think the Raiders to cover any thread at all at this point.

SPEAKER_04

It's so bad.

SPEAKER_01

I wouldn't think the Raiders over Ohio State. Right. You're right.

SPEAKER_04

So bad. Oh, I'm gonna I'm with you. The Eagles gotta, this has gotta be a get right game for them. Two big plays by AJ covering Fred.

SPEAKER_02

Jimmy. Yeah, I don't I don't know who the Raiders backup is. It's uh uh boy from Kenny Pickett. Oh, yeah.

SPEAKER_04

All right, he got a late field goal to cover last week.

SPEAKER_02

Well, he'll be playing. Um give me the give me the Eagles. Kenny Pickett's playing in Philly? Geno Smith is doubtful. You know what? I'll take the Raiders.

SPEAKER_06

Revenge game for Kobe Pickett.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, I I I was gonna do Geno Smith, and that was why, but you know what? I'll take give me 11 and a half points, I'll take it. All right. The little hose flip to the Raiders and pickett. All right. Let's go to Chicago. The Bears coming off a hard forward loss. Aly Williams blew it in the end.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, he did. He'll have another season.

Jaguars-Jets Blowout Watch

SPEAKER_04

Who could have seen that coming? Yeah, I know. Fine. Well, you know. I could have gotten a good one. I mean, shoot. Yeah, but the Bears don't. The Bears don't suck. And they're still in it. Uh they're in the wild card. That now that was a big loss, but they'll have a chance to revenge the Packers game. They have them coming in Lambeau. So they just need to hold the whole course until that game. Cleveland's coming in town. The Browns. The Browns 7.5. Ooh. Ooh. Shador looked good last week. 364 through the air, three touchdowns, one interception, and a loss to the Titans. Jimmy, who you got?

unknown

Damn.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, that hook. That hook, man. Yeah, that hook. And Chicago doesn't like dominate people. You know, they win. They control the game.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah. I I'm I'm gonna reluctantly take the Bears. To cover? Yeah. Alright. I think they can I think they can do it probably wrong.

SPEAKER_01

Bears don't blow any. And Miles Garrett is going to eat Caleb Williams for lunch. Give me the Browns. They might even win outright. Wow.

SPEAKER_04

Wow.

SPEAKER_01

Caleb Williams sucks.

SPEAKER_04

Wow. Yeah, you know, I'm not getting off this train. Give me the bass, baby. My double digits. Oh. Oh, yeah, yeah. I'm taking them. All right, let's go to LA. Great game here. As Man Cannibal and the Lions, Jared Goff going back to play. The Rams. Matt Stafford, former Lions quarterback. It's really, you know, in this game, the Lions have to have it. The Rams have to have it if they want to keep the one seed. This is a game that means a lot in the playoff implications. The Lions are getting six on the road. Jimmy.

SPEAKER_02

I'm going to take the Rams.

SPEAKER_04

Me too. Yeah. Me too. You know, Shula and that defense, man. Fiskey and Verse and uh Kitchens.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah.

Eagles-Raiders Number And QB Uncertainty

SPEAKER_04

I mean, they're balling out, man. All of them. They're all balling out. Like, it's it's I love seeing it. I mean, even seeing Cam Kitchens.

SPEAKER_01

I love seeing Cam ball out, dude. All the hate. All the hate he got at the combine for running that slow 40.

SPEAKER_04

He fell to like the right when that happened, it was like, oh. We talked about it.

SPEAKER_01

We almost did a whole show on the Rams draft that year.

SPEAKER_04

That's why I I mean that's why I could pretty much like the Rams now. Is I love that draft. I mean, and and all the three of those players have just been bawling out. And then Matt Stafford's balling out. And then he's having a crazy. And then when he gets in the red zone, good luck, Garden Devontae Adams. Yeah. But I mean, when that guy runs like a fade route, I mean, or a back shoulder, you can play the best defense. Yeah, that that's what they do that in their sleep. I'll take the Rams minus the six. Justin.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, I I I agree with everything. Yeah. Except six is too rich for my blood. Give me man gamble for the cover.

SPEAKER_04

All right. All right. I mean, the Lions gotta have it. Um, so a close game is probably what's gonna happen. All right, let's go to Seattle. Oh boy. Here's one 45 or 44, whatever, man. Big fat boy, Philip Rivers. Sorry.

SPEAKER_02

I mean big fat Phil.

SPEAKER_04

I mean, yeah, he ain't gonna run around anyway, but man, he's been eating, and he has not been playing, he's not in plain shape, but he's gonna give it a go. Is he gonna play? I mean, it it Riley Leonard.

SPEAKER_01

It's impossible. It's all on Riley Leonard. Yeah. That is wow.

SPEAKER_02

You know how Riley Leonard plays, man. There's a high probability.

SPEAKER_04

13 and a half for Jonathan Taylor and the Colts. A team that was once on top of the whole conference now. Right. Best team in the NFL. Might not make it to the playoffs because I'm going Seattle here. Minus 13 and a half. Justin, who you got?

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, I I was actually I was looking forward to my Costanza pick on this one and picking the old man. But I thought it would be hilarious.

SPEAKER_04

It really would. He's gonna play. He has to.

SPEAKER_01

No, you know he's gonna play. You know he's gonna play, dude. He's gonna play. And you know what he's gonna do? He's gonna come in with a backdoor cover.

SPEAKER_04

Phillip Rivers ain't getting blown out. I'm covered in this thing. No. Hell yeah. Well, Jimmy, who you got?

SPEAKER_02

No, I got taking that too. Yeah, give me the Colts. That's a lot. Dude, it's it's Philip Rivers. He's the most aggravating.

SPEAKER_04

They have a great running game. Yeah. So they can still it's gonna be hard to bear.

SPEAKER_02

NC State. God. Yeah. It's infuriating playing against that game.

SPEAKER_01

I still remember that game. I'm not a Florida State fan, and still one of my favorite random ass games ever was that Chris Ricks, Philip Rivers, G-Bell.

SPEAKER_04

I mean, it's competitive, man. He talks shit. That was a that was a great game. He talks crap or junk. Yeah, he doesn't cuss. That's great. Um, Denver, Green Bay. This is possible Super Bowl matchup. The Broncos are underdogs at home. Mile Hall, mile high dog horse barking. Jimmy? Yeah. Yeah? Gimme, give me the Broncos.

Bears-Browns Hook Debate

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, that defense with Jordan Loves up and down. You know, he's been playing well the last couple of weeks. Right, right. And they've looked good the last few weeks. Yeah, they have. Just to Jordan Loves looked good. Right. This is kind of like that's what he does.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, because he net peaks and valleys. Right, because you you've had uh Favre and Rogers that just go on straight heaters. Yeah. And he hadn't really had that yet. This is defense, this defense is serious. Yeah, I'm taking the Broncos. You give me two points, uh Justin.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, I can't go against the home dog, man. Uh what not with that defense.

SPEAKER_04

Packers D Packers D is has been playing. Packers D's sick too. But on the biggest thing, whoever gets to 20, whoever gets to 21st wins. If somebody gets to 20, because this is gonna be low scoring. All right, let's go to uh San Francisco as they're gonna be hosting the Titans coming off the big win. Yeah, yeah, man. And now they're going on the road to San Francisco, they're getting 12. Jimmy.

SPEAKER_02

That's a big ham more. That's a big line. Yeah, I mean, I'm not, dude. Cover? Yeah. Yeah, they cover. Yeah. Brock Purdy, interception machine.

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Who's gonna get an interception for the Titans, though?

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, it's true. I mean, shit, it'll probably be a lineman.

SPEAKER_04

Titans suck, man.

SPEAKER_02

I know. So does Brock Candy.

SPEAKER_04

I know, but Justin, how are you seeing this?

SPEAKER_01

The Titans are so terrible. Um, God, but 12 and a half man has been fighting. Yeah. Big spreads against the Titans have been biting me all year. And it's gonna bite me again on Sunday. That's red.

Rams-Lions Matchup And Draft Wins

SPEAKER_04

Alright, give me the Niners. Minus 12. I don't like it. I'm gonna take it. They need to have it. You know, they need this game. Yeah, well, they still win. I know, but they gotta put it on them, man. Alright, let's uh let's go to New Orleans. As the Saints coming off the big road win over the Bucks uh championship. Another chance to um take on the Panthers and kind of ruin their season. They went into Carolina just a few weeks ago and beat the Panthers. So Division game, man. It's one of those NFC South games. As you can tell by the spread, the Saints are only getting two and a half at home. I mean, that's why man, when they was eight and a half in Tampa, I just that's why I took it. That's the only reason. And you saw it was just that close game. And they actually won. Uh two and a half though, not enough. Give me the Panthers. Jimmy. Yeah, Panthers. Um, Justin.

SPEAKER_01

Panthers by a field goal. Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

All right, let's go to Dallas. This is a Sunday night game. I don't know why. It sucks. The Vikings are gonna be playing the Cowboys. And the Vikings are getting five and a half in Dallas. Justin, who you got?

SPEAKER_01

God, dude, the Vikings are so terrible.

SPEAKER_04

They're coming off a 27-0 shutout, though. I mean, it's the NFL.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, so you know what that means. That means they're not gonna play well this week. Dak will score enough points that Flores can't win the game for the Vikings. Go ahead and give me the Cowboys on that.

SPEAKER_04

Minus five and a half. All right, Justin. I mean uh Jimmy.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, I I hate picking Dallas, but I'm not I'm not rolling with JJ McCarthy. I don't give a shit how I'll take the I'll take him.

SPEAKER_04

I'll take the Vikings. I'll take that defense to confuse Dak a little bit. And uh just Dak, though.

SPEAKER_02

That running game, it gets better every week.

SPEAKER_04

I know, but that that Dallas defense sucks. And this might just be what the Vikings need to keep it close. And five, I'll take the five. Give me the Vikings. Five and a half. Five and a half. All right, let's go to uh ooh, the m that's the Sunday nighter, the Monday nighter. This is a fun game. It's a big game, man.

SPEAKER_02

You know what? Give me the fins, man. Wow. Give me the fish!

SPEAKER_04

Yeah. Uh Justin.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, God, dude, I want to take the Dolphins so bad, but I I haven't heard an update on A Chan. If A Chan's banged up, then the Dolphins get destroyed because they've done a great job of keeping the ball out of Tua's hands.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

During this during this winning streak.

Seahawks-Colts And Phillip Rivers Wildcard

SPEAKER_04

He's been so good. He's so good. Yeah. So good. You know what? He's gonna play. He's gonna play. Give me the dolphins. Yes. Well, I like the backup. What was it?

SPEAKER_01

Uh what's his Oh, the kid from Oklahoma State, Ollie Gordon.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, he had a nice game. Um The Steelers haven't been. They just get in these. TJ White may not play. That's big. Yeah, he's having lug problems. I can't believe I didn't go with the Dolphins last week. I'm I'm gonna go with the Fins. I'll take the points. I'll take the points. I think the Steelers, they won, so now they'll go back to a loss. The Dolphins need this one to get closer to 500. So I'll go Dolphins here plus the three. But this might end up in a tie.

SPEAKER_02

6'6. Tie.

SPEAKER_04

It is a tie of mediocrity and misery. All right. Uh so we all going dolphins there. Yeah. Yeah, man. All right. Let's um this is a classic game. They're gonna lose my game so by so much. Yes.

SPEAKER_06

We had to go. Oh, oh, oh, that's alright. We gotta shuttle. Shuttle. Shuttle.

SPEAKER_04

We got shuttletime. Shuttle. Before we go, just want to, man, bring up the uh Oklahoma City Thunder. Oh, NBA champs are 24 and 1. That's right. 24 out of 25 games. And here's a stat for you. Gilgas Alexander hasn't played in 13 of the 25 fourth quarters.

SPEAKER_05

They're beating the beat.

SPEAKER_01

They're beating the shit out of people. Yeah. Not a single starter for OKC is averaging more than 30 minutes a game right now. They're benching everybody halfway through the third.

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah. It's insane, man. They're on pace to shatter the Warriors record. But I mean, hey, only one loss. A quarter of the year. You got one freaking loss. Right. You're on pace for five losses. They're more.

SPEAKER_02

It's more than a quarter of the year. They're gonna break the record. They got one loss. They're gonna win the most ever. Yeah. Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

It's hard to put again. I mean, dude, they got all the dudes, they have like they got balance all through the roster. Their GM just sitting back there playing chess the last few years and just piecing together what is dominant roster. And but it's Oklahoma City, no one cares about that.

SPEAKER_01

Right. They currently have too many drafts.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Because they can't. If they take their draft, if they use the draft picks they have in this upcoming draft, they'll have too many people on the roster.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, because they have three first rounders in the next draft. Killing it. Killing it.

SPEAKER_01

It's like what I did in that when I was simulated season.

Broncos-Packers Defensive Duel

SPEAKER_04

Right. So if there is this is the year, if someone might actually win back. They're back. Yeah. All right. Well, there's your NBA. Alright. We got. We'll probably look into the playoff coming up as it approaches. Big games. Lady Nobles Champs. Way to go. Lady Knowles again. Soccer. Another national championship. The only dynasty on campus, baby. Yep. I know. I know. It's sad.

SPEAKER_01
