Rule number one is that get the money first. Rule number two, don't forget to get the money. Yo, it's your boy, Mr. Tulocks, man. Today we are just talking some NFL futures. I already bet, man. That's all we doing. It ain't gonna be nothing too long, nothing too crazy. Just gonna get straight into it. I got some MVPs I already bet. I got some coach of the year I already bet. I got some player props I already bet. And some team props. So you know what? Without further ado, we're just gonna get straight into it, man. First one, look. Oh, wait, I gotta change the screen. Alright. So, first one. We got Justin Herbert for MVP, man. Like I said, the reason I took this bet is based off the eye test, right? The eye test tells me Jay Herb is a great quarterback, right? He's been running like Jalen Hurts lately. And he's been throwing the ball like Aaron Rodgers. He, in my mind, is now a dual-threat quarterback. That's the way I see Justin Herbert now on. They had two back-to-back 11-win seasons. They went 11-6 last year. I think they went 11-6 the year before that. So every year since John Harbaugh took over, they've been getting better. They've been getting better as a team, getting better team chemistry. So I like this J. Herb pick a lot, man. I really do. And then the last thing I will say is if they win this division, bro, over the Raiders, who will have the number one pick and a much improved defense over the Broncos, that's damn near elite on both sides of the ball, right? And then the Chiefs. We all know who the Chiefs are, right? This is what I would say. Jay Herb has the right obstacles to conquer to win this award. That's what I would say. He has a lot of things stacked against him. And if he just conquered the obstacles in his way, I don't see how you can't put him in the MVP conversation at the end of the year. That's just my personal take on it. So I like Jay Herb. He is my AFC MVP candidate. Now we're going to take it to the NFC. We're going to take it to Dak Prescott. And the reason I like Dak Prescott is we all know he's a stat machine, man. He reminds you of like James Harden from the NBA, right? Always got great regular season stats, but always full winning mat. He's one of those type of players. He's always top three passing yards, top five passing TDs. We know he's going to pin up numbers. It's just now he got to have team success. And that's where I get in my second point. I truly believe the team got better in free agency. And I'm sure they're going to use the draft to help bolster that weak ass defense they rolled out there last year. The defense was fucking horrible. But they do got two first-round draft picks. Hopefully they get two really good defensive guys in there. And um this what I will say them being able to keep George Pickens was a big factor in me placing this bet. Like George Pickens is was a huge keep for them. Between CD, George Pickens, and they kept Javante Williams, who is their goal line dog. I mean, I love this offense. I love this offense a lot. It's always been dynamic. It's just that the defense gotta do their part. Now, with that being said, we're gonna go to coach of the year, right? And y'all know how coach of the year goes. It never goes to the coach with the most wins. It don't work like that. Coach of the year is typically in this generation, is the coach who has the most improved team. And these are the two teams I have identified as two teams that can go from worst to first or really bad to somewhat good. And the first one is the Tennessee Titans. I bet Robert Son, the coach of the year, and I think I got at plus 1,000, right? And the narrative is, right? When we look at the Titans' free agency, you can say they had the best free agency out of every team out there. You can arguably say they had the best free agency. They addressed all the weaknesses. They brought in two corners, they brought in John Franklin Myers on the D-line. They traded for Jermaine Johnson at DN. I just like the direction this team is heading in. Robert Silock, arguably, and the Titans had the best free agency. Now, with that being said, we all know Robert Salah is the defensive mastermind. Brian Dave was the offensive mastermind. He's the OC. And this is what I like. Both of these coaches have failed before as head coaches. Dave Ball failed as a head coach of the Giants. Robert Salah failed as a head coach with the Jets. I think you learn a lot in failures. With that being said, I think they're going to do whatever they got to do. They're going to come together to make sure each other has success on both sides of the ball. You know, they don't want to fail again. So I think a mix of having Robert Salah, the defensive mastermind with Brian Dable, the offensive mastermind, I think right there alone, you're going to win a lot more games. Like I said, no one has expectations for Tennessee Titans. I think they won four or five games last year. The Titans come out here and win eight, nine. Don't let them get the 10 wins. If they get the 10 wins, you might as well hand Robert Salah the Coach of the Year award. That's just the way I see it. So I like Robert Salah to win Coach of the Year for the Tennessee Titans. And my second team is they got boys. Brian Shattermeyer or something like that. Like I said, this team is much improved, right? And they will have continuity on their side. I like, like I said before, keeping Pickens was a huge factor in me making this bet. Where you got Pickens on one side, Lamb on the other side. I mean, two number one receivers, arguably, with a passing quarterback who gets the job done. As much as people talk shit about Dak, he knows how to pit up numbers. I'm not saying do you know how to win, but he knows how to pick up numbers, right? So I like this. I can see, I think the Cowboys won seven games last year. If the Cowboys improve and maybe win 10 games, even 11 or 12, I think Brian Shatemayer, however you say his name, will be in the pool for Coach of the Year. I honestly think the Cowboys will win the NFC East. And I think they will make the NFC Championship game. That's my early hot take. I'm gonna stand on that. I mean, we're gonna see. But I do like the Cowboys to be a much improved team this year. Now, let's get into player props, right? We're gonna get into player props. And my first one is Mike. Oh, wait, I got a comment. I got a live comment. Oh, shout out my boy, man. On the live stream. Shout out my guy. Oh, he's giving y'all a bet right here. He says, Chargers versus Cowboys in the Super Bowl. That's not a bad bet, man. I'm gonna go see what the odds is on that. I might give it out in my next live stream. I might just do that. All right, shout out my boy Paladrino. All right. So we're gonna get back to it, right? My first player prop, I'm taking Mike Evans under 950 receiving yards, bruh. The dude was getting older. I know he had like eight a thousand yard seasons in a row, but I think this is the point where digression takes place, right? He has hamstring injuries uh year after year. Um I just think at this point, he's probably more of a goal, uh red zone target, more than someone you rely on down in and down out. He's like a big player bus kind of receiver right now. Either he makes a big play or he really don't have an impact on the game at all. I'm not saying he's not a great receiver. He's still a great receiver, but asking him to get close to a thousand, I think that's a little too rich for my blood. And I think, you know, he got you're gonna have a lot of competition with targets, you know, with Brock Purdy, you know the U CMC a lot, rushing and receiving. George Kittle, Ricky Parcel, Christian Kirk is over there. DeMarcus Robinson is no slouch. I just think, like I said, Mike Evans is a red zone player. And this is why I didn't bet his under-receiving touchdowns. I just bet his under-receiving yards. I could see him getting eight receiving touchdowns, but getting a thousand receiving yards, let's roll it back a little bit, right? And the last thing I'm gonna say, he is in a new system. I don't care how good you are. You go to a new system, you gotta learn a new set of play calls, new um audibles. You gotta get in sync with a new quarterback. That's the biggest thing. You gotta uh, it's gonna be a learning curve. I don't care how good you are. Um, new system, new offensive scheme. He's gonna have a uh how can I put it? A period to a what do they call it? Like a trial period to adjust. So that's just my take on the Mike Evans situation. Uh next player prop I do got is Jameer Gibbs under 1,250 rushing yards, right? I know they trade away David Montgomery, and the argument for the over is more volume. He's gonna get more volume, more rushes, more rushes. But what they don't say is when you give a player more touches or more attempts, the likelihood of injury increases as well. So more volume could mean more yards, but it also means more chances to get hurt. So um, and I think like with Jameer Gibbs, he's a good receiving threat as well. He's not just a rushing kind of player, he can catch that ball, and I think his receiving yards will dip into his rushing yards. Like, that's just my opinion. And then uh I think I just think this line is too high. Last year they had the same thing for Saquon Barkley after a crazy year. Saquon Barkley had a crazy year, I think, two years ago. And then they set his line at like 1250, and he did not reach it as well. Um, this line is just too high, man. 1,250 yards. It's too rich for my blood, man. But anyway, now we are on to some team props. And this one, I will say, I like Tampa Bay Buccaneers to miss the playoffs, man. I think they're gonna miss him, man. That division is stacked now, bro. That division got um the Falcons, who got a new coach in Kevin Stefanski. I mean, the Falcons got arguably the most talented team in the division. And the Panthers, you've seen what the Panthers did last year. The Panthers should have really made the playoffs. And the Saints might have found their future quarterback in Tyler Shaw. Um, so I just think the division is not as easy as it once was. And there's no more Mike Evans or Levante David. Mike Evans went to a new team, Levante David retired. Those right there was your identity and your two leaders on the team for so long. Like them two dudes have been on the team for like the last eight to ten years. I just think without them two, I don't know where the leadership is gonna come from. Who's gonna keep them composed in tough times? I'd like Baker, but it ain't gonna be him. But so I just think that that that division is up for grabs. If Buccaneers don't win a division, I think they missed the playoffs completely. Like they don't even make a wild card spot. So I got the Buccaneers to miss the playoffs. And my last team prop is with the 49ers, right? I'm taking them under 10 and a half wins. Um, like I said, this team is full of injuries. CMC stay hurt, Mike Evans stay hurt. George Kittle coming off of ACL. Um, Ricky Parcell is he's good, but he's no home run type of player that can get you through a season. He's no Antonio Brown or CeeDee Lamb kind of player. Um, I just don't think this team got what it has to win 11 games. 11 games is a lot. Don't forget they're still in the tough division. I think the Cardinals will win some games this year. They will give 49ers some tough games. You got the Rams, who's arguably, I think, is the best team in the NFL. Then you got the Super Bowl champs and the Seahawks in the same division. I just think 11 wins just feel like too much for this team. Personally, I think their win total should be set at 8.5. I think they can win nine games. I don't see them winning 11. So I just think this is a high mountain for them to climb. So just give me the under, bro. Give me the under, and we're gonna rock out with that. Oh, we got comments on set. Oh, good take on Gibbs. Yes, sir. Yes, sir, yes, sir. For those who didn't see about Gibbs, I go back under 1,250 rushing yards. Like I said, man, he's gonna run the ball a lot more. I agree with that, but more injury risk with that. So, like I, you know, we'll see. And we got another comment. Haiti Sipper, Mr. Two Locks with the winning locks, man. Shout out, Haiti, man. I appreciate it. We on the okay. Anyway, so my last one is my Super Bowl picks. I'll just say them briefly. I'll explain them more in detail at a later time, but I already bet Baltimore at plus 1500. The main reason for that bet, honestly, was just for value purposes. When was the last time you could bet the Ravens at plus 1500? They usually plus 700, plus 800, plus 900. No one left the team. I don't get it, besides the head coach. And they go from plus 800 to plus 1500. Nah, I got still have that. It's still a great team. Chargers, I like the Chargers, man. They if they can just get me one more receiver. This is my favorite long shot bet, right here, honestly. Not my favorite. But I think if they can get one more solid receiver, bruh, they can make a long push for the Super Bowl. That's just my opinion. Um, and then you got the Rams. I like the Rams. They was a great team last year, and all they did was get better. They added to the defense. I'm not gonna say all the players' names because we talked about that in the previous live stream on the bi-week report. But these are three. I just feel very confident that one of these three teams will win the Super Bowl. That's just my take on it. Uh shout out El Padrino. He said, literally, I don't even know what you said, literally, too, but I think it was to let me see. Maybe the 49ers under 10.5, or Gibbs, or Gibbs under prop. I'm not too sure. But like I said, y'all, this is my Super Bowl bets right here. And um, till then, I'll catch you on the next live stream, man. Peace.
