The Brotherly Bet

We learned Jason Kelce’s warm-ups got… messy, but our bankroll didn’t

Chaos makes great theater and even better edges. We kick things off with a rare bye-week glow, a night-golf heater, and a string of bets that actually landed before the Bills humbled our hubris. From there, the pace doesn’t let up: we sprint through Week 5’s most revealing moments—Houston’s statement win, the Colts torching the Raiders, Tampa’s clutch composure, Jacksonville’s discipline in a fun tilt with the Chiefs—and the under-the-hood details that matter for bettors and fantasy players. Garbage-time touchdowns that swing matchups, defenses that quietly fold in the fourth, and coaching choices that tell you exactly how to price the next spread.

Injuries reshape the board, so we go deep on impact. The Chargers’ backfield injuries alter pass rate and red-zone calls, New England’s backfield reset forces ball-security questions, and Lamar Jackson’s absence against a surging Rams squad flips how you evaluate Baltimore’s offense and a surprising defensive slide. Philadelphia’s line health still matters versus the Giants, and the Chiefs’ WR room shuffles change target share and explosive play odds. Mix in a few unforgettable nuggets—the coin-toss curse run, a legendary bad beat from 2007, and a very human locker-room confession—and you get a reminder that variance is undefeated, narratives are loud, and the market only cares about what moves probability.

We wrap with a card we’re ready to sweat: a four-leg Brotherly Bet at roughly +310—Justin Fields 30+ rushing yards, Colts moneyline at home, Patriots moneyline versus the Saints, and Steelers moneyline over the Browns. It’s a blend of measured chalk and situational conviction: quarterback legs as a floor, dome rhythm for the Colts, a steadier Patriots defense, and Pittsburgh cranking the pressure back to Blitzburg levels against a rookie on the road. Whether you tail, fade, or just steal the notes for your own slips, you’ll leave with a sharper feel for how tempo, injuries, and identity shifts shape the week’s best numbers.

Like what you hear? Follow the show, share it with a friend who loves a sweat, and drop a review telling us which leg you’re fading and why.

SPEAKER_00:

Hot takes, bald bets, zero regrets. You're locked in with the brotherly bet.

SPEAKER_05:

Now you go.

SPEAKER_02:

Welcome to the brotherly bet here, folks. We are on season two. We're on episode nine. Even though we recorded episode ten earlier today. Um we're back. Week five, NFL is done. Hockey started. Baseball playoffs. We got everything going. We got everything going here. Which is nice. Tom, we had a nice little bye week, wouldn't you say?

SPEAKER_01:

Perfect bye week.

SPEAKER_02:

I mean, it was the best bye week ever.

SPEAKER_01:

Single AFC North team loss. And we are on top of the division. So you can't beat that.

SPEAKER_04:

You were probably relaxing Sunday reading like an ill Elon Hildebrand book.

SPEAKER_02:

Oh, good name drop.

SPEAKER_04:

Like no no boats left this summer.

SPEAKER_01:

More of a Dr. Seuss type of guy, but.

SPEAKER_02:

Nice.

SPEAKER_01:

I was very relaxed on Sunday. It felt good for once.

SPEAKER_02:

Big hop on pop fan. Yeah. Big hop on pop fan. So, Grant, we did our night golf on Friday, and on our way to the course, we put in. Did we do a three-leg, Tom? I think we did a three-leg. My my buddy sends me all his NCAA football stuff. So he was Tom's just sitting next to me. He's like, I'll do that. So we jumped on that. So we got home at geez. I mean, we got home pretty early. So we got home before midnight.

SPEAKER_01:

Yeah. Tuesday actually a lot earlier than I thought it'd be.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah. Um, and so that bet hit. So we're like, all right, dude, like we're up. I think I I didn't bet too much. So we're up 30 bucks. And then we did another NCAA one on Saturday. Right? And hit another one.

SPEAKER_01:

And then I we did the UFC bet.

SPEAKER_02:

Then we did the UFC bet at night. Yeah, yeah. And then that hit.

SPEAKER_01:

Until the fucking bills got us good.

SPEAKER_02:

But yeah. The brotherly bet hit. We did an AFC North bet. It was great.

SPEAKER_04:

You guys sent me like 40 screenshots of like$5 and$100? What? And it didn't. I went up like$500.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah, it was. It was it was a great. It was a great weekend. It was very nice. It was very nice.

SPEAKER_04:

Shout out to Bookie Keith.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah. Frank. Tom has a Frank. I have a Frank. You need a Frank. Every guy who is a degenerate gambler needs a Frank. That's it. You need a Frank. Alright, who's hitting us up with Week five highlights?

SPEAKER_04:

Week five highlights. Here we go. Going for the Terry Bradshaw. Go through. I'm trying to think of how he actually does it, but he's like the Bucks and the Seahawks. They went wow. Baker Mayfield, 379 yards. He did a phenomenal job. Bam.

SPEAKER_01:

Go Bucks. You're thinking of someone. You're thinking of uh that's not Terry Bradshaw. Okay. Well Boomer. You're thinking of Boomer.

SPEAKER_04:

I don't know any of these guys' names now. Triple.

SPEAKER_01:

My school does like the boomer thing. But yeah.

SPEAKER_04:

All right, well.

SPEAKER_02:

Whoever, whoever you're doing, you keep that up.

SPEAKER_04:

Whoever you want to do, just do it. You should just do Harry Carey always.

SPEAKER_03:

Hey everyone. Next day.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah, there you go. There we go.

SPEAKER_03:

We got all the state of Texas, folks. And you know what they have bacon, Texas. I don't know. What? I haven't banned. Ma doesn't take me often.

SPEAKER_04:

I cannot do that for like more than 30 seconds. Otherwise, I get it dizzy. So Houston won, 44-10. Bye-bye, Ravens. See a purple. Hello, Barney. That felt good to watch. That was beautiful. Good old CJ. Had a nice run. Next up, Colts. This was a flamethrower. Raiders, Raiders, 40 to 6. Jonathan Taylor. Not Jonathan Taylor Thomas.

SPEAKER_02:

Oh nice.

SPEAKER_04:

That sounds bad. Three touchdowns.

SPEAKER_02:

We knew what you meant. You grew up at the same time as he did, so it's a home improvement thing, right? You're okay.

SPEAKER_04:

Exactly. Nick. Baker Mainfield, 379, two touchdowns, walk-up field goal. That was a fun one to watch. High scoring game. Good offense. Bad defense. Jaguars and Chiefs. This was a fun one. Good day for the Jaguars. Bad day for Shoelaces. They didn't work. Trevor Lawrence tripped, but he made it in. It was a fun game to watch, though. Did you guys watch all the way through?

SPEAKER_02:

Oh yes.

SPEAKER_04:

It was fun. Um Broncos, Eagles, that was a stunner. I didn't think the Eagles would actually lose that one. Nope.

SPEAKER_00:

But yeah.

SPEAKER_04:

I'll leave it at that. Bengals actually made it closer than I expected. They got to 20 points.

SPEAKER_02:

So Yeah, it's all garbage. And I and I lost my fantasy on a garbage touchdown to T. Higgins. So it's just garb, it's just garbage time. The Lions didn't care. They're like, there's no way if you score, we'll come down and score again. They just I feel like they just stopped caring.

SPEAKER_04:

Did did they end up pulling golf?

SPEAKER_02:

No.

SPEAKER_01:

No, I don't think so.

SPEAKER_04:

Well, it was a good day. Um, last one was Titans and Cardinals. Titans getting their first W of the season on a field goal. Beautiful.

SPEAKER_02:

Ugly.

SPEAKER_04:

Beautiful. 22 to 21. So, unless you like Nutella, not a very good day for spreads.

SPEAKER_02:

Nice.

SPEAKER_03:

Yes, sir.

SPEAKER_04:

Tom, back to you.

SPEAKER_01:

Also, not a good day for these couple of gentlemen I'm gonna announce on the injury report. Um, Marion Hampton, Chargers big running back, went down with an ankle sprain that is looking at four weeks minimum. Uh, he has been going off for the Chargers and helping. Do we know who's after him?

SPEAKER_02:

Um because Najee's done.

SPEAKER_04:

What do you mean? Like the IRS?

SPEAKER_01:

Najee's done. So they have Haskins and I think Liddell. Haskins, I'm pretty sure is, but I mean they lost both their top running bags. I mean, they still have Herbert. Um isn't didn't their receiver get hurt too?

SPEAKER_04:

Um maybe not. The one guy with legs and arms. Um wears the gloves.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah, yeah. They're big one.

SPEAKER_01:

No, I think yeah. So the running backs, Najee and Hampton, are both out. Not looking good for the Chargers, but they have a good record, and they have Justin Herbert, so I still have hope. Um Antonio Gibson, Patriots running back, is out. Torn ACL, he'll be done for the whole season, which is not good. But they have Ramandre Stevenson, who has been fumbling the ball a lot lately. Other than that, he is a very solid back, though. So hopefully they lean on him, trust him, and he doesn't fumble the ball anymore. They'll be just fine, especially after coming off that win against the Bills. I don't think anyone saw that coming. Drake May's legit. Patriots might be back.

SPEAKER_04:

He's probably uh practicing with duct tape this week in practice.

SPEAKER_01:

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02:

Wouldn't you be? I mean, I feel like once you have multiple fumbles, all you're thinking about is holding on to the ball and not hitting a lane.

SPEAKER_01:

He won't be able to run. Yeah, he won't be able to run, right?

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah, you're just panicked.

SPEAKER_01:

You never know. Um Lamar Jackson's still out. He's going to miss this week, and they're playing the Rams, who is one of the highest teams in the FL right now. So hopefully we get another Ravens loss.

SPEAKER_02:

That'd be nice.

SPEAKER_01:

That'd be great because everyone knows the Steelers like to choke at the end of the season and the Ravens like to come alive. So we can hopefully flop that right now. Landon Dickinson, Eagles, he's out. He's a big piece of their offensive line, obviously. Probably the biggest. Um he's week to week, so hopefully he'll be back next week. But they are playing. Who are the Eagles playing this week?

SPEAKER_02:

They're playing the Giants.

SPEAKER_01:

Giants. Okay. So they should. But I mean, Jackson Dart has been Jackson Dart and that little Tasmanian double running back that got it.

SPEAKER_04:

Is that a nickname for his mom?

SPEAKER_02:

I it's it's he's something else.

SPEAKER_01:

Tasmanian devil, I'd tell you. So maybe this is good that Lannon sits this one out. But we shall see. The Eagles did lose last week. And then uh Xavier Warley, he is out. Ankle and shoulder. So that's a big piece to the Chiefs, obviously. Um, and I think they should be getting Rasheed Rice back week seven. So once they get both those guys back, they'll be back to being the Chiefs, maybe. Hopefully not.

SPEAKER_02:

We'll see though. I like that, Grant. I like what you wrote down here. Were these fast, but injuries got them on dial-up speed.

SPEAKER_04:

You know, last week was actually like the last official week for dial-up internet in the United States. Really? Or total. Yeah. Heard on the radio. My name is Didn't know that. I didn't know people actually used it anymore. But yeah, there was squeakers.

SPEAKER_02:

Oh yeah.

SPEAKER_01:

Alright. Next time.

SPEAKER_02:

I like that. Podcast Zinger. Hampton's out, and Los Angeles Chargers ground game is stuck in LA traffic.

SPEAKER_04:

That's good.

SPEAKER_02:

That's that's it's that's good.

SPEAKER_04:

Literally the word zinger.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah. That's a good one.

SPEAKER_04:

Just in case I get lost.

SPEAKER_02:

Just in case. Alright, Grant, hit us with something funky. Teach me something. Teach me something? Huh?

SPEAKER_04:

Okay. Huh? What? Huh? Huh? A little sportsmanship here, yeah? Yeah. Alright, so what are you feeling first? Are you feeling something a little uh a little off the reservation, unplugged, dirty-ish. Sure. Clean, but everyone does it.

unknown:

Sure.

SPEAKER_04:

Everybody poops, what?

SPEAKER_02:

Sure.

SPEAKER_04:

Alright, so pop pop quiz. This is the first one. This isn't I think this is an easy one. So NFL players are tough, but biology happens. Right? Every once in a while you're gonna get you're gonna be John Rahm, you're gonna be teen off, and you're gonna be running for a porta body. So name the retired player who admit up admitted to pooping his pants in warm-ups before a game, and his teammate called him out.

SPEAKER_01:

This is NFL?

SPEAKER_04:

Yes.

SPEAKER_01:

Retired player?

SPEAKER_04:

Yes. Can you give us a very famous retired player? Recently retired in the last three years. Oh Gronkowski Gronkowski. No, but he does seem like a repeat of under.

SPEAKER_02:

Can you can you can you give us a can you give us AFC NFC?

SPEAKER_04:

Or if like he NFC uh offensive line. Kelsey. Which one? Obviously Jason.

SPEAKER_02:

Jason.

SPEAKER_04:

Jason Kelsey had the beef tips, wasn't feeling good, had some bubbles and grubbles.

SPEAKER_02:

I think he stopped at Bucky's and had the pudding.

SPEAKER_04:

No. That pudding does not cause that.

SPEAKER_02:

The poor didn't.

SPEAKER_04:

And then he said, Oh, it happens. It all happens. One time. The best of us.

SPEAKER_01:

Maybe he was at a Terry Swift concert the night before.

SPEAKER_04:

I'm gonna guess he probably had like 40 beers the night before.

SPEAKER_02:

Oh yeah.

SPEAKER_04:

So Jason Kelsey's like all of us. Right? So that's the first one. Next one. The curse of the Super Bowl coin toss. So from 1998 to 2008, there was something that happened with the coin toss that was pretty random and went on for a very long streak. So, did you know from 98 to 2008 teams that won the Super Bowl coin toss lost 10 out of 11 Super Bowls? That's pretty wild.

SPEAKER_01:

Yeah. That is crazy.

SPEAKER_02:

I'd be interested to know if they won the coin toss and either deferred or took the ball. That would be interesting. To see, like, you know, you said 10 out of 11. Let's say eight out of those 11 deferred or took the ball. Right. Wow, that's crazy. So pretty much you're telling me you lose the coin toss, you win, you win the ship.

SPEAKER_04:

Yeah. I think the best way to lose a coin toss is if they say pick pick a side and you say heads, and they say, Hey, it's heads. You go, no, no, I said tails. And you point, and you're just so confident in your delivery. No, I said tails. They're like, no, you said heads. Sorry. I said tails. We just like mumble it.

SPEAKER_02:

That's wild. Do we know who won the coin toss last Super Bowl?

SPEAKER_04:

Um Sakawe?

SPEAKER_01:

The Chiefs. Chiefs won both.

SPEAKER_04:

Hmm. So speaking of bad bets, uh, did you remember? Do you remember the$100,000 bet in 2007 that a Las Vegas better placed on the Patriots to go undefeated in the regular season at 18-0. Did you hear about this bet? I think I remember this a long time ago. So they made it to the Super Bowl. They met Eli Manning in the Jets. So Giants.

SPEAKER_02:

We knew what you meant.

SPEAKER_04:

Yep. He doubled down on that bet. So he had the cash. He's like, hey, I'm gonna throw it back down. So he put more money down on the Patriots to win the Super Bowl.

SPEAKER_02:

Oof.

SPEAKER_04:

And loses it.

SPEAKER_02:

Oof.

SPEAKER_04:

So that's gonna suck.

SPEAKER_02:

That's tough.

SPEAKER_04:

He's driving a school bus for District 48 now.

SPEAKER_02:

Hey, that those guys make halfway decent money.

SPEAKER_04:

Is this thing on?

SPEAKER_03:

Are we are we on the same podcast?

SPEAKER_04:

Tommy saved the world today at work, okay guys? You're just telling me this dumb coin flip joke.

SPEAKER_02:

What happened?

SPEAKER_04:

More poop pants stuff.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah, gimme the poop. Alright, let's go over let's go over our let's go over our predictions from last week. Grant, you want to start with the highs, and then we'll talk about how bad the just I I bet you a lot of people lost money last week. And not just specifically the 1,500 people that listened to us. LOL. Um I bet you a lot of people lost some coin.

SPEAKER_04:

Yeah. No, yeah, it was kind of like an Alabama trailer park. Everyone lost it.

SPEAKER_02:

I mean, yeah, it was, yeah, it was.

SPEAKER_04:

I mean, overall, I will say this, out of all the games, we did win the the Brotherly Bat first week.

SPEAKER_02:

Yes, we did.

SPEAKER_04:

Officially W. So that was good. Um, and out of all the games, we did correctly predict four. That good. So you're saying there's a chance.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah. I mean, it started off with like I don't think a lot of people saw the Niners being as together as they were on Thursday night football and they beat the Rams. And then the everyone was probably up on the Giants because how the Giants looked, even though the Chargers pretty much gave them that game. So I'm guessing a lot of unless people are taking spreads, then because we're picking just straight up winners. Yeah. Um, I bet you a lot of people were riding the Eagles. I bet you people didn't think Houston would come into Baltimore and absolutely pop the Ravens. Uh Cowboys, sure. Um the Colts, sure, against the Raiders, but like the Dolphins dropping it to Carolina.

SPEAKER_01:

Um Cardinals losing at home.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah, Cardinals falling apart in the second half. Um, Seattle and Tampa Bay, I'm pretty sure it could have been six in one, half a dozen the other. Yeah. Same with the commanders and the chargers. Probably a lot of people jumped the Lions.

SPEAKER_01:

I mean, commanders tend to have Jay and Daniels.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01:

But I so Chargers at home. Yeah. And they had their running back going into that game. Obviously, he got hurt.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah. Um, probably everyone's taking the Lions over the Bengals. I bet you a lot of people lost money on the Bills, unless you're in New England. And then, I mean, Jacksonville and Kansas City. It's hard, it's hard to bet against Patrick Mahomes in prime time. So probably people were on that same train as us. But we're gonna get off that train.

SPEAKER_04:

Thursday night football, still the hottest day of the week.

SPEAKER_02:

Yep.

SPEAKER_04:

80%. 80% success rate. Overall, we did take a little bit of a hit ski, but we're still at 60%. We're over the coin flip line.

unknown:

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01:

We'll be just fine.

SPEAKER_04:

We'll be fine. We'll be fine.

SPEAKER_01:

Riley bet hit, so let's keep that going.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah, let's keep that going. And we're gonna chuck a bunch of hockey slips onto that, onto that Instagram reel and make you people follow the hockey world. Alright, Grant, do you want me to go over the list and then you guys shoot out the winners?

SPEAKER_05:

Sure.

SPEAKER_02:

Sure. Member, first team is the home team. Second team is on the road. We are rocking Thursday night football, which is magical, and it's already tomorrow. Uh, we got the New York Giants and the Philadelphia Eagles.

SPEAKER_04:

Oh, yes. Everyone's favorite. Eagles, fly bird.

SPEAKER_01:

Sir.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah, I think you gotta. They need to figure figure a couple things out. They look like they they just look. I don't know. I don't know what the word is. Not good.

SPEAKER_04:

They'll be fine. Not good.

unknown:

Not good.

SPEAKER_04:

Eagles, they'll be fine. Yeah, they'll be fine.

SPEAKER_02:

Oh, they'll be they almost look like they have some locker room issues. Yeah. Um, we got the Jets, the New York Jets and the Denver Broncos. Both away teams here. We're going across the pond at 9 30 a.m. Eastern time, I believe. Um out in London.

SPEAKER_04:

You're a fan of the game time, by the way. I will say.

SPEAKER_01:

Yeah, I kind of like waking up to a game. Yeah. Gets the day going. But uh, we're riding with Bo Knicks. We are riding with the Broncos.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah, I think I think until the Jets prove that they're gonna play the Titans, or I mean, they they just I I watched something today and they don't have a turnover on defense yet. So they haven't caused a turnover.

SPEAKER_01:

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02:

In five weeks.

unknown:

What?

SPEAKER_02:

Not one interception, not one fumble, nothing. They've given the ball away up plenty. Um but yeah, I dig I I I just sled and yeah. Pushing on. We got the Pittsburgh Steelers against the Cleveland Browns.

SPEAKER_01:

Go ahead, Grant. Make the right pick this week.

SPEAKER_04:

Oh, don't make me pull my pants down and show my booty here.

SPEAKER_02:

Do it.

SPEAKER_04:

That was a brown joke. Icky? Yeah. This is the Steelers of Pix Pittsburgh. Uh it's also a bold special in the Brotherly this week. Teaser. One button's open. That's all I'm saying.

SPEAKER_02:

Sorry, I don't have any buttons this week. Um fly. Um, what do we think, Tom? I'll go down a tangent with you for a second here, bud. Um Steelers playing at home against the Browns. We know how the AFC North games are. There it's always a bloodbath. What's your what's your final score prediction here?

SPEAKER_01:

42-13. You heard it here first.

SPEAKER_02:

I swear to God, if it's 42-13, I'm gonna lose it. Um Browns Browns haven't scored more than 17 points in a game yet. Um they have a good rush defense. We know that. They got a good front. Their offense is questionable at best. So we will I'm excited to see what the defense does to a rookie quarterback on the road. So hopefully we come out, we come out hot. Um, we've been blitzing like I don't know, I don't know what the what the stat is 40-50% more than last year.

SPEAKER_01:

They're getting back to it.

SPEAKER_02:

So I feel like it's black back to Blitzburg.

SPEAKER_01:

Our home opener was a disgrace. They're gonna come out hot. I think they destroy this team, but we'll see.

SPEAKER_02:

So you are you saying for sure they cover that five and a half?

SPEAKER_01:

Oh yeah, I'm taking that all day.

SPEAKER_02:

Okay. All right, you've heard it here. 42 to 13. That would be can you imagine if on Sunday it's like three o'clock in the afternoon and it's like, dude, the score is it's 42 to 13.

SPEAKER_01:

The Bears play Monday, so then I don't even gotta worry about nothing the rest of Sunday.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah, it's nice. Um, all right, pushing on. We got Miami Dolphins against the Los Angeles Chargers.

SPEAKER_04:

Chargers.

SPEAKER_01:

Yeah, I think Chargers bounce back. Dolphins lost Tyreek. Chargers lost their running back, but I mean, they're known to be more of a passing team and defensive teams. We'll see.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah, it'll be uh it'll be interesting to see what Herbie does. Um we got Tampa Bay Buccaneers at home against the San Francesco 49ers.

SPEAKER_01:

Taking the Bucs on the Bucks.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01:

At home. I mean even though the Niners get, I think they get back their receiver, one of their receivers, Jennings, or is he still out?

SPEAKER_02:

Uh I haven't seen I haven't seen all the entry reports.

SPEAKER_01:

Yeah. I think he's coming back, but pretty sure he's not gonna be out. Mac Jones looked great. I mean. Who knows? They could a little upset off, but the Bucks are a safe bet, I would say.

SPEAKER_02:

All right, we're taking Jacksonville Jaguars against the Seattle Seahawks.

SPEAKER_01:

Sir, that's another pick'em game, but I like the Jags coming out hot.

SPEAKER_02:

Alright, we got Carol Carolina Panthers and the Dallas Cowboys.

SPEAKER_04:

This we're going to saddle up. Cowboys, I think they're just Panthers aren't gonna go two for two.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah, I don't I don't see him I don't see him going blow for blow offensively either.

SPEAKER_01:

So yeah, the Cowboys offense, even without CeeDee Lamb, yeah, Dak and Dak is just like the most consistent.

SPEAKER_04:

He's leading in yards, right?

SPEAKER_01:

Like Dak and Pickens are finally getting some chemistry.

SPEAKER_02:

And then he finds fur he finds Ferguson for I mean he has like 12 targets a game right now. It feels like it feels like he just finds them for eight, finds them for nine, finds them for twelve. Like hard to beat.

SPEAKER_01:

Nice notable though with the Panthers. Rico Dowdle, over 200 yards rushing last week. That was pretty exciting to watch. But um Chuba Hubbard's back, so we'll see. We will see who they're gonna feed the rock more to in that game. But either way, I think the Cowboys beat them in that.

SPEAKER_02:

All right, we got Baltimore Ravens against the Los Angeles Rams. Tom, take it away. Take it away, Tom.

SPEAKER_01:

And Nolamar Jackson, Rams. They it's actually very fun to watch. The Ravens have probably one of the worst defenses in the NFL because I never thought I would be alive to say that. But their defense just looks awful. Uh and without Lamar Jackson, there's just no hope for that team right now. We'll see. Maybe they'll turn it around though.

SPEAKER_02:

In Baltimore, I mean Derrick Henry's Derrick Henry's rushing for what 30 yards a game.

SPEAKER_01:

Yeah. I mean, that's all they uh all you have to do to shut this team down right now is just stack the box and make sure Henry doesn't get a full head of steam early.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah. Yeah. All right, we got the Indianap Indianapolis Colts and the Arizona Cardinals.

SPEAKER_01:

The hottest team in the NFL. The Colts sitting at the best record in the NFL. Tied with a few teams, but four and one. Yeah, at home. In the dome.

SPEAKER_02:

Yep. We'll see them in a couple weeks. Um, we got the Las Vegas Raiders and the Tennessee Titans. I'll just skip right ahead and say we're gonna take the Raiders. Uh Green Bay Packers and Cincinnati Bengals. Packers by a million.

SPEAKER_04:

Yep. 42 to 14.

SPEAKER_02:

42, 13. Yeah, this one would be 62 to 12.

SPEAKER_01:

102. I think this one would be closer than what the spread is, but I do think spread is like 14 or 15.

SPEAKER_02:

Spread's 14 right now. Joe Flacco's on his.

SPEAKER_01:

Good old Joe Flacco, yeah. We'll see. If he can get T. Higgins and Jamar Chase going. They can keep it closer than what people think it'll be, but I mean, either way, I don't see them being the Packers in Kube.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah, he's just on his AFC North tour right now. He's like Swifty, man. I'm gonna say next year they sign Joe Flacco, Steelers, and he closes it out. He comes back. Just when you text me that, I'm like, my God, dude. Unbelievable. Oh, we got New Orleans Saints against New England Patriots.

SPEAKER_01:

Patriots. Just beat the Bills. They're looking good.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah, they do. They do look good. Kansas City Chiefs, Detroit Lions. Lions or dogs?

SPEAKER_04:

Is someone hurt on the other thing? That'll be a big one.

SPEAKER_02:

Is someone hurt on the Lions?

SPEAKER_01:

Yeah, they're all golf is playing, right?

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah, I haven't I haven't seen any.

SPEAKER_01:

Is there a reason that they're underdogs?

SPEAKER_02:

Probably just because it's at home and in prime time. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01:

Well, definitely hammer all my winnings on that game. Yeah. Lions.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah, it'll be um Yeah, I'm looking real quick just to see. Um I mean, St. Brown's question's questionable um with a wrist injury, that'll be nothing.

SPEAKER_01:

Yeah, he'll play.

SPEAKER_02:

Raymond's questionable. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01:

I mean, so they're good. They're healthy.

SPEAKER_02:

SPEAKER_01:

Yeah, come on.

SPEAKER_04:

SPEAKER_02:

SPEAKER_04:

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah, like what uh what's the problem here? Um all right, so that was Sunday night, correct?

SPEAKER_05:

Yep.

SPEAKER_02:

Alright, then we have two Monday night games. Um, we'll start with the Atlanta Falcons against the Buffalo Bills.

SPEAKER_04:

Buffalo Bills.

SPEAKER_01:

Yep, I don't see them losing two in a row, even on the road. Yeah. I also hate this two Monday night game thing. It's kind of stupid to me, but.

SPEAKER_04:

You don't like it?

SPEAKER_01:

No, because then one bleeds into the other and then you have to stay up later to finish. I don't know. I don't like it.

SPEAKER_04:

Do you watch the Manning Cast? Or do you watch uh Chris Collinsworth, you know, just hobbling and goblin, whatever quarterback it is?

SPEAKER_01:

The man and cast is entertaining. Don't get me wrong, but I just can't like focus on the game. Like I if it's a good game, I'm not watching the manning cast. It is hard to focus.

SPEAKER_04:

I'm just looking at Eli, like, are you with me, man? Come on, are the lights on?

SPEAKER_02:

Alright, and our final one, Washington Commanders, Chicago Bears.

SPEAKER_01:

The Bears. The Bears.

SPEAKER_02:

Do we remember Do we remember what happened the last time we took the Chicago Bears on a prime time game? What happened to us?

SPEAKER_01:

Last year when they played the command time this year. The Hell Mary from Jay and Daniels. That destroyed our season, and then we just so I think we got a little revenge game on him. There's a good last two weeks ago since they came off their bye. And they have a very long bye. They are playing Monday night. And they had their bye week last week, so we'll see.

SPEAKER_02:

That is a long bye.

SPEAKER_01:

To be ready to go.

SPEAKER_02:

Ain't no lie. It's a long bye.

SPEAKER_04:

I can't even think of a good joke for that, but I feel like there's one out there.

SPEAKER_02:

It's that there's definitely one out there. It'll come to you in like a couple days, and then we'll retreat back to it on an unplugged episode.

SPEAKER_04:

Long remember boyfriend.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah. College days.

SPEAKER_04:

What? Is this chemic chemistry class? Because there's a lot of experiments.

SPEAKER_02:

Oh, good one.

SPEAKER_04:

Oh.

SPEAKER_02:

Good one. Alright, those were our predictions. Hopefully we predict more than four.

SPEAKER_04:

I think I mean I think that's a given. I think we'll get there.

SPEAKER_02:

Hopefully it's more than four. Um, all right, let's push on to the brotherly and let's get our millions and millions of listeners out of here. Um we had Joey on for the first time this this season on our unplugged episode 10. So shout out Joey. Um we put in a bet for him. So we have a four-legger since we're feeling froggy, because last week we won on a two-legger. So we're like, hey, let's let's double the odds and make it make it intense. So we're taking Justin Fields for Joey for 30 plus rushing yards. That's sitting at minus 190. And you know what? You know what I like about this bet the most? We will know, right? He's the biggest Fields fan. Huge. Huge. Um I like that we'll know if our bet is alive before the noon games start. So like we'll know if we're dead or alive.

SPEAKER_01:

Now it'll just basically be a three leger. Then good.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah. So I like that. We'll run, we'll run with that. Uh we're taking the Colts money line that's sitting at minus 350. They're heavy favorites. We're taking the Patriots against the Saints, I believe. That's minus 190. And we're chucking in the curtain. We're taking Pittsburgh money line at minus 270 against the Browns. For a whopping total of plus 310. So, Grant, if you put down a thousand dollars, you got a$4,300 payout coming, right?

unknown:

Wow.

SPEAKER_02:

There's a$41. I'm sorry,$4,100.$4,100.

SPEAKER_04:

Same difference. It's like free money. Ten grand.

SPEAKER_02:

We're going we're going on a Disney cruise.

SPEAKER_04:

Exactly. Well, a couple.

SPEAKER_02:

Oh. Well, probably one. Probably one five-day one.

SPEAKER_04:

Like a really nice one. We're like you buy a car. Yeah, you can buy like the first like a Mazda Miata.

SPEAKER_01:

You get the first edition Tesla, probably for like 42.

SPEAKER_04:

I think you're good.

unknown:

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04:

Without the rebate, though.

SPEAKER_01:

I think I got the charger and all that. Yeah.

SPEAKER_02:

But it's worth it because you get to stretch out your legs during a trip, so it's worth it. Alright, boys, you got anything else for us?

SPEAKER_04:

Nope, just waiting for them to start building the Buckeys gas station in Wisconsin.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah, seriously. I I just really want my pudding.

SPEAKER_04:

Hmm.

unknown:

Delicious.

SPEAKER_02:

Alright, that wraps it up. Once again, I'll do the brotherly bet really quick. We got Justin Fields Rush, 30 plus on the ground. We're taking the Colts, the Patriots, and the Steelers, all money lines for plus 310 for a four-leg.

SPEAKER_04:

That's it. Love it.

SPEAKER_02:

Let's see if we can put see if we can put two together. Hot takes.

SPEAKER_04:

Bold bets. A lot of regrets.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah. Alright, boys. We're your hosts. I'm Jack. We got Grant here. We got Tom here. Grant, you look so pristine in this 4K video. You better hope that you never have a pimple. Because it comes out so clean.
