Boom. If you thought four hours a day, minutes a

this is an extra special addition of the Fifth Hour.
Danny G. I don't I don't know if you realize
the importance Why this is different than all the other
Fifth Hour podcast that I have done with you for
(01:07):
a while now and with guests Gon West of the
four oh five prior to that. This is an extra
special podcast. Yeah, because I'm on with you on a Friday,
and we have a sponsorship card to read during the show.
We have an actual title sponsor hallelujah. Right, I mean,
my guy here we are. It's miracle Benny can afford

twelve dollar grapes at Gelson's. Yeah, exactly. But when I
got the call from management and they said, hey, you
know we have a sponsor, I said, oh, is that right?
Surprised mother, Yeah, I know, it's absolutely true. And I
am extra excited about this because this is a show
that I have done on terrestrial radio for years and
(01:55):

this as a primer for Super Bowl fifty six. It
is our extravaganza as we take a look at not
the no, not the playoffs, coach, this is the Super Bowl,

(02:16):
Super Bowl. So we're gonna get right into it. Danny
g R. Title sponsor for Super Bowl fifty six. We
are very exciting to welcome in our friends at DraftKings.

And with that said, let's get right into it. Danny G.
The prop bets a proper Palooza edition of the Fifth Hour? Now,
(04:25):
should we save the the actual game? Even though I
gave it out on the radio? Should we should we
start with the game itself and then work our way
to the props. How do you want to do it? Now?
I think we should start with fun props and work
our way to the game. All right, you're the boss,
so we will. We will do that. Some of the
more they call them the kind of the exotic, the
(04:47):
the the super Bowl specials is what DraftKings calls it.
And all of these are available at DraftKings and so
check that out starting. I think you're thinking of ballet dancers.
Oh no, this is you know, inside gambling wing, you
know inside gambling. We go, Uh, some of the more
interesting props not both teams two X is this category
(05:11):
on DraftKings and these are Super Bowl special so both
teams to score two plus field goals in Super Bowl
fifty six that you can only bet yes on this.
That's plus two fifty. So now this actually seems like
a pretty good bet to me on the surface because
the Bengals Danny in this playoff run have been very
(05:35):
lopsided in favor of the kicking game, and the Rams
also have have shown a propensity of kicking a lot
of field goals. Mr Gay, they're the kickers, So I
think that's actually a pretty good bet at at plus
two fifty. I think the Bengals will cover their half.
The only thing that would worry me is it the
(05:56):
Rams offense roles. Will they finally be scoring touchdowns? Only
that's more for a Rams fan like you to answer, well,
that's also true. Yeah, yeah, that's obviously that'll kill you
because if one team jumps out, they're not gonna kick
field goals. They're gonna why would they bother, and they're
gonna have a big lead, so you wouldn't end up
kicking two field goals. Well, we'll both teams in Super
(06:17):
Bowl fifty six scored two or more passing touchdowns in
the game, so This is another one. I think this
is a highest scoring game. I think this game is
in the I say high score. I don't think it's
being the forties, but I'd love for it to be
in the forties. That really awesome, attract meat type game.
I think it'll be somewhere in the in the low thirties,
high twenties kind of that. Maybe more low thirties for
(06:39):
both um but Joe Burrow, sure, the Rams with all
their weapons. It's another It's well, you probably have to
pick one. You can't pick both, but I I certainly
see Burrow who hasn't hasn't lit up the scoreboard with
touchdown passes in this playoff. And Matthew Stafford. I think
the Bengals defense is in for a lot of a
(07:00):
lot of ulcers on Sunday. So that's another one that's attractive.
All all these are really popping out to me. Another
one of these, both teams to x Super Bowl special
props over at DraftKings, both teams to score a rushing
touchdown in Super Bowl fifty. So I don't think I
would take that one. Danny, Yeah, I mean yeah, I
(07:22):
think I would stay away from that. And you'resondn't gonna
go by the way. Yeah, Well, the plan that that
I heard, we'll see if it changed, you know, up
right up until you know the game this weekend. But
as I heard recently was that they're going to rotate
all three running backs, so whoever, whoever doesn't suck, we'll
get the ball more. I think I think that's the
(07:42):
Well we know you're boy McVeigh has lied to us
about running backs before. Well he has. He has had
to because he had he had running backs that were
supposed to be good that weren't. And yeah, uh, we'll
both teams have the lead in the first half. So
this is another one, Danny, that I look at and
I'm I go, Okay, Let's say the Bengals come down,
(08:03):
they get the kick off, they come down, get a field,
and then the Rams get all they go back get
a touchdown. Boom. I've already covered that right away. Uh. Now,
the problem is if the Rams or the Bengals come
out and score two early touchdowns, then you're screwed. So yeah,
because then the other team would score in the second quarter, hopefully.
And the odds on this yes is plus one fifty
(08:25):
No is minus one eight on that. I just hope
the super Bowl is better than the last one. The
Rams were in My God, that was terrible. God, that
was horrible. That last prop bed. I'd stay away from
that prop action. Boss. All right, we'll both teams have
the lead in the second half, so that would mean
this is a nip and tuck game. Yes is plus
(08:47):
one all on Draft Kings. By the way, again, if
you missed the beginning of a podcast, I don't know
how you could, but if you did, I'm actually on
the live air all made possible by Draft Kings. No
is minus one nine. I would say yeah, because I
feel like they are going to be going back and
forth in the fourth quarter. Yeah, I hope not. I
want to enjoy a nice, comfortable wind. I tend to
(09:09):
agree with you, but I hope that's not the case.
But that's just hope. We'll both teams have to lead
in the fourth quarter. So you think if you think
is a back and fourth game, then yes, you're getting
great value if you think this game goes back and
forth where both teams have lead fourth quarter, Yes is
plus three hundred. Okay, so bet a hundred win three
hundred and get get that back and know it's minus
(09:31):
one forty at DraftKings, so God, knowing my luck, it
will be like back and forth and pull out with
little hair I have remaining, Uh, some of the other
props here just you know, looking gazing over the drafting site,
and they do a great job. They have everything weighed out.
(09:52):
A number of Cincinnati Bengals to have a pass reception
over six and a half under six NA. So it's
Burrow gonna spread the ball around and I have to
go back and look at the numbers during the season.
I know it certainly seems like watching the Bengals in
the playoffs, Danny. They've been doing that. They've been mixing
and I mean everyone talks about Jr. Mar Chase, but
(10:13):
Higgins is pretty good. There's a there's a bunch of
guys on the Bengals that are kind of around the
same same areas. So I think that's that's a yes.
I would think I would think so too. And even
though Ramsey is gonna, hopefully for you, lockdown Chase as
much as he can, Chase isn't a huge receiver, so
(10:35):
I think he could get in some work against Ramsey.
So let me let me see here and I'm doing
this on the fly. Let me check the last pango
game here, how many people had reception. That doesn't mean
what happened just happens gonna happen again. But oh yeah,
so he Burrow was able to spread the ball around.
They were It's actually close. There were seven by my
(10:58):
mother or matth here. There were seven Bengals that caught
passes in the a f C Championship game against the Chiefs.
So that's and that's why that number is at you know, six,
what what do we said? Number? Was that over under
six and a half. So so yeah, it's right there.
I mean, are you saying Vegas knows exactly where to
put this number? I'm saying that they didn't just throw
(11:21):
this The people a DraftKings did not just throw this
against the wall. They actually looked at it. The same
same prop bet with the Rams, So you can do
the same thing with the Rams, and I imagine looking
back at the NFC Championship game, the number was about
the same. They're uh, let's see one to three, four, five, six, seven,
So yeah, exactly, So it's this. This is one of
(11:43):
those prop bets. If you bet this, you're probably sweating
it out in the fourth quarter. Yeah, probably needs some
guy that's a nobody the flotsam and jetsam to catch
a pass for you to win that bet. Yeah, gambling
was legal in California. I'd stay away from this one, alright.
Total first downs in the game another profit you can
(12:04):
do over DraftKings. So let's see your total first downs. Now,
the over under this is for I believe both teams
over under forty and a half. It's gotta be you
gotta be over under. That's a lot of first downs.
I would stay away from from this one. Over is
(12:24):
one one minus one fifteen. Under under forty and a
half is also obviously minus one fifteen. Uh so there's that. Uh,
let's see. Let's move on to some of the other
So the profits MNNA go through those. Uh First, they
have a section on DraftKings called first play, first play
(12:44):
super Bowl special So this is first place specials. Will
either quarterback get sacked on their first offensive play? Oh?
Now that check this out. That is plus So if
you think the Rams are really that much better physically
upfront than the Bengals offensive line, and there could be
(13:06):
some first snap jitters, my first snap jitters, of course,
for this to work, you have to you have to
throw the ball in the first play of the game,
which both teams probably will. But yes, it's plus two
twenty or plus uh two thousand five. If I could speak,
that would help. I I might throw a couple of
bucks down on Burrow getting sacked on the first play.
(13:30):
In honor of your boy Jackie Slater coming on the
podcast Saturday. He was on l A t V last
weekend saying he thinks the Rams defense is gonna get
to Burrow early. Yeah, Jackie was Jackie. Jackie was very kind.
He's given him some time. We're gonna have him on
Saturday podcast and I'm looking for that. Will either team
commit a turnover on their first offensive play? Who oh,
(13:55):
it's plus two thousand at Traftkings It's another one. Now,
I wouldn't bet a lot on it. You don't bet
a lot on something like that. But I keep going
back to that first play. Jitters for both Matthew Stafford
and Joe Brow. We've all seen it, Danny. How many
Super Bowls we watched over the years where guys come on,
they got that stage fright, and even guys that have
(14:16):
been in big games before it's a whole different world
than the Super Bowl with everyone watching. My god, I
I I would I guess another I look at it.
I'm like, I could see a scenario where Stafford comes out,
chucks it down the field to Beckham and it ends
up getting picked off on the first pass. And I
can also see Joe Burrow trying to chuck it out
(14:36):
to Jamaar Chase and force it in there and you
know the next thing, you know, all of a sudden,
uh yeah, it's uh not going your way. So uh
you can also bet as his standard DraftKings has the
odds on this first offensive play of the game, will
it be a rush or a pass. The Rams lately
(14:59):
have been running the all more, trying to establish the run.
That must be the the influence. Maybe that was Jackie Slayterson.
You gotta establish the run, um. But both teams throw
a a lot, but the Rams. It's just that the
Rams became good again when they had that losing streak,
and since then they've run the ball more. But it's
still top heavy in favor of the passing attack. So
(15:22):
there there is that on Draftings. By the way, that's
Russia's minus pass U is plus one some of the
game specials. These are all Super Bowl specials. On Draft Kings, any,
I like this one. Any non quarterback to throw a
(15:43):
touchdown pass in Super Bowl fifty six? Now, we saw
Odell Beckham in a ram game not that long ago
throw a touchdown pass. Have the Bengals done any of that?
I'm not. I'm off the top of my head. I
don't know. It's possible that did it sometime during the season,
but I don't remember recently. I wouldn't take the action
(16:05):
there on that. I don't think either team's gonna try
to get too cute. Well, that's the thing that if
it works, you're a genius. If not, you're you're a clown,
you know, and everyone goose on you for the rest
of time. Can you believe that that coach read a
gimbick hook and ladder play in the Super Bowl? You
know that unsure of themselves that they have to run
(16:29):
trick plays? Dude, what got you to the dance? What
do you do? And all right? Uh? And I like
this one also on DraftKings. Well, any offensive lineman score
a touchdown in the Super Bowl, this is plus to twenty.
I'd be great. How about the mr forty year old
there for the Ams on the offensive line, the older player.
(16:51):
I think he's the oldest player now that Brady's out,
at least non kicker in the NFL. I'll throw him
a bone, get get him a touch down. That would
be cool. I'd be great. I'd love that. I still
I was a little kid when William Perry, better known
as Refrigerator Perry, scored a touchdown in the Super Bowl,
and that was in the days before social media. But
(17:13):
as a fat kid, I thought that was the coolest
thing that I had seen. I wouldn't kind of jumped
on the Bears band waking a little bit that year
was a child, because I loved fridge uh and all that,
and that was that was cool enough. But I do
remember people, even in the days before social media, Danny
ripping the Bears because that should have been Walter Payton's
touchdown and they gave it to You know, there's rumors
(17:35):
that it could be Andrew Whitworth's final game of his career.
So come on, Rams, throwing a bone, Yeah, yeah, that
you know that'll be neat will any player have at
least a hundred and fifty rushing or receiving yards in
Super Bowl fifty six, Yes, is plus one seventy five.
I think you gotta take yes on that. That's Cooper Cup,
(17:58):
a couple of big catches. That Odell Beckham, that's Jamar Chase.
We got three or four receivers in this game alone.
I wouldn't bet on the running backs, but three or
four receivers that are capable more than capable of getting
a hundred and fifty yards in the in the Super Bowl.
Cooper Cup against the Niners in a low scoring game
had a hundred and forty two yards in that game.
(18:21):
And you know, you look Tee Higgins went on over
a hundred yards against the Chiefs for the Bengals. So
I would look at that, and that's why that that
numbers only plus one sevent I would say yes on that.
What else, do we have any quarterback to have four
or more passing touchdowns? Oh, that's a time that would
(18:44):
be a blowout, right, I would stay away from that one. Yeah.
On DraftKings, that's plus four hundred. If you're confident in
Joe Burrow or Matthew Stafford getting it done. Will any
team kick a game winning walkoff field goal at the
end of regulation time. I would take this one. Yeah,
(19:04):
you think it's going to be that kind of game?
Plus five hundred on the prop on this plus five
dred well any team recover a successful on side kick
in the Super Bowl. You can only bet yes on
it at DraftKings is plus and see. If you could
bet no, you would bet on it. But I wouldn't
(19:25):
bet yes on it because, Yeah, I don't think that's
that's gonna happen. Fewest points scored by one team this
weekend on Super Bowl Sunday, So the fewest points scored
by one team. The over under is nineteen and a half. Boy,
I hope we have both teams over that I would
(19:45):
hate if this is a fourteen thirteen game, that would suck. Yeah,
your team did this to us the last time they
were in the Super Bowl. Please score thirty points this time. Rams.
Don't be picking on the rent ramming out because I
barely remember the last time the Raiders are in the
Super Bowl. Uh. First coaches challenge. You can bet on this.
(20:10):
You can bet on everything over at Draftings. They got
everything for you on the prop bets. First coaches challenge.
Will it be the Rams or the Bengals Rams or
minus one twenty Bengals or minus one ten on that
who will call the first time out? The Rams are
minus Bengals or minus one five Sean McVeigh. He has
(20:30):
a tendency of burning time outs like he hates if
the plays of the loft. He would rather burn a
time out then get called for a penalty. The perfectionist,
I would bet on the Rams. And Rams they came
back against the Niners in that game and in the
press box everyone was like mumbling, oh, they have no
time outs and there was like ten minutes left to
go in the game. They burned their last time out
(20:52):
and they still were able to win the game. Who
needs time They don't need draft picks. The Rams, they
don't need time outs during the game. They know, let's
go there. Unorthodox Danny is what they are, all right?
What is next year? We have on the the Proper
Peloser your primer for the big Super Bowl match up
(21:13):
here and some of the other wagers that stand out
the player matchups and this is pretty cool. Also on
DraftKings they have Super Bowl fifty six match bets, So
the most passing touchdowns match bet Stafford versus Joe Burrow
most passing touchdowns, and you can bet on Stafford plus
(21:37):
one oh five, Burrow is plus one fifty, and then
a tie is plus three ten. So those are the
the options. Man, It's that's a tough one. Burro has
not been throwing the touchdowns in the playoffs, but that's
as Dick Stockton taught me, Danny, that tells you what
has happened. That doesn't tell you what's going to happen.
(21:58):
And the Bengals have a lot of moment him right now. No,
I don't say that. Wash your mouth thought was so
I dare you? How dare you? Danny G Yeah, we're
gonna bleep that on the podcast that our podcasts have
a lot of momentum right now themselves. Dare you? Well,
they are doing that. That is the podcast is doing well,
(22:18):
but they don't have momentum. They don't have that. All right,
let's see what else do we have? Most mentioned the
most touchdowns? How about most passing yards in a match?
Bet for Super Bowl fifty six Stafford Burrow. Stafford is
a minus one twenty favorite, so this is a and
and Burrow is plus one draft kings. So there's another one, Danny,
(22:41):
where if you think one team is going to be behind,
you would bet on that quarterback because the passing yard
is totals. You're passing on every play. You're not playing conservative,
You're throwing it down the field. Um, so that that
really if you think the Bengals are gonna behind, then
you would bet on. Oh, if you think the Rams
are gonna behind, you had been on staff. And remember
(23:03):
even when the Bengals were behind against Kansas City, they
still were kind of stubborn and running the ball a
little bit with mixing. Yeah, I popped up on Kansas
City radio on Thursday morning. They're still reeling Danny, but
they have not gotten over that loss. It is not
good for the Chiefs fans and their hero, the man
(23:24):
that had made no mistakes, had been Mr Perfect in
the postseason early at Arrowhead. Um, my goodness, Patrick Mahomes,
what did you That was like a tragedy? In second?
Who are doing? Bill miller Man? Anyway, back to the props,
I'm sorry, I get carried away. What do we have next?
(23:46):
How about most receiving yards? This is a good matchup.
You have the the rookie Jamaar Chase versus the hot
shot all pro in Cooper Cup most receiving yards in
the match bet on DraftKings. Cooper Cup is a mine
is two hundred favorite. Jamaar Chase is plus one six.
It's hard to argue with that. It's this is a
(24:08):
once in a in a career season Cooper Cups had.
He'll never be this good again. I am okay with that. Uh,
just play well in the super Bowl and then you can,
you know, you can do something else. I'm fine, So
I would take I would take the chalk and Cooper Cup. Uh.
Here's an interesting one. Danny on the prop bets most
receiving yards on the match bet. Uh. And then you
(24:30):
can combine Cooper Cup and cam Akers with Jamaar Chase
and Joe Mix. So I don't think cam Akers is
really going to be much of anything in the passing game.
And I'm still upset of him. I I haven't taken
him out of the penalty box for what he did
against Tampa. Ball on the ground, bug on the rug,
(24:51):
uh and all that. But it's not like cam Akers
is not like a a central part of the passing game.
He had one catch in the NFC Champion Chip Game
for two yards. Well and you do. Got to give
him a lot of props for rushing back from that injury. Yeah, no,
that's I mean, it was great he came back and played.
And if the Rams win the super Bowl, I will
forgive him. I will pardon him. I know he's very concerned.
(25:14):
Cam Akers can't probably can't sleep thinking about Well, I
get a Mallard pardon. That's the question. Most receiving yards
And this is also interesting the and you go through.
There's a bunch of these. We're only gonna use some
of them. We're not gonna do all of them. Most
receiving yards match bet Odell Beckham. You can bet Beckham
versus Tyler Boyd on Draft Kings. Beckham is minus two
(25:35):
hundred in the matchup with Tyler Boyd. Tee Higgins is
actually favored over Beckham at minus So I I have
a feeling Beckham is gonna really light it up this
super Bowl. And this is like his redemption story Becka.
It's Beckham and Stafford the redemption in the Super Bowl.
So I would I would lean to Becco. I think
(25:58):
he's gonna have a big game. I think he will
be will be yin and yang with Cooper Cup, and
if I'm right and this is a high scoring game,
they will each have huge stat lines, and I mean
Bengals will score also, So, uh, what else do we
have here? These are actual props as far as they
have one. I have a quick one for you, all right?
(26:19):
Are you a heads or tails guy? With that opening
coin toss? I thought you're gonna talking about dating? Um?
Uh No, I don't have a solid one way that
I usually in the past, I've always gone heads, but
I don't. I mean, I'm opened, I'm open minded to tails.
What about you? Then? Are you a heads guy or tales?
(26:40):
You know? I would say Tales, not just because of
my tender Roni, but because alec Ingold of the Raiders,
their fullback before he got injured, he was on a
winning streak. Anytime he would call Tales, the Raiders would
win the overtime coin toss, I like going with Tales. Yeah.
Just for the record, my wife, who probably is not listening,
(27:01):
but I am a fan of Tales turned on. I'm
a fan out of the tail. But I and this,
I do, I do the heads all right? What else
we have? Both teams these are all on DraftKings. He's
proper beats. You can bet them right now if you
are in a state that has a Draft Kings sports book.
If not, you can go on Draft Kings and you can.
(27:23):
They have a great website and you can find out
who you need to send a letter to, what politicians
you need to send it, send a letter to to
get Draft Kings sports book in your state. And listen,
we we live in a state, Danny, where we don't
have it and we want it, and they have. I
went on their website Draft Kings in California and you can.
(27:45):
They have a list of what needs to happen and
who you need to contact, and it's very simple for
you on the Draft Kings website. So but but fortunately
a lot of the states now most states are more
reasonable in California and have sports wagerings, so some of
the other profits on DraftKings. Both teams have scored twenty
five plus points and Joe Burrow and Matthew Stafford to
(28:08):
have two hundred fifty or more passing yards each, So
this is another one of those combined bets. But if
you think both teams are gonna score twenty five or
more points, wouldn't you think both quarterbacks are gonna have
two hundred fifty or more yards passing. I would think, yeah,
do you only bet on guests on that? That's plus
four fifty The odds are against that, but plus four fifty. Well,
(28:31):
cam Akers score the first game touchdown and Joe Mixon
scored the second game touchdown. No, yeah, I would go
no on that. But you can only bet yes. And
if you want to risk a little and win a lot.
He used to work with a guy that likes to
say that risk a little one a lot. Plus five
fifty on this five thousand and fifty, So you will
(28:54):
uh my goodness, if you bet a hundred bucks, you
could win five thousand five it on the payout on that,
So that's not bad at all. Cam Akers will lea
score the first touchdown and the second touchdown. No, no, no,
But you can bet only yes, yes, if you want
to win a lot. And if you have inside information
(29:15):
from the Rams locker room that they're gonna feed cam
Acers the ball inside the ten yard line, that is
plus h on that. Uh. We keep going here. These
are player props and there are so many. We're only
gonna get to a little bit. We're gonna scratch the surface.
Then we're not getting in the middle of I mean,
we're getting a lot of the good ones, but there's
(29:38):
some some really interesting bets on trafficks. Here's what either
Joe Burrow or Matthew Stafford have a reception in the
Super Bowl. So this would go back to the trick
play thing. Yeah, we I do realize that one of
the more famous plays in Super Bowl history. I got
facts in Philly is Philadelphia Eagles there and Nick Foles
(30:01):
and his his unathletic ability. If Nick Foles can can
make a play that the Philly Special and all that,
then why yeah, I mean it would be fun. But
I think both of our o c s and head
coaches in this game are creative on their own without
trick plays, except for when the Bengals get real stubborn
and try to keep running mixing up the middle like
(30:24):
the Raiders do. Josh Jacobs, Yeah, that is annoying when
they won't give that up. Will either Jamaar Chase or
Cooper Cup scored three or more touchdowns individually? You can
bet on this on DraftKings. Yes is plus eight hundreds.
Yes is plus eight hundred and that I can't put
no on it. I would go no on that. I
(30:46):
think like two's the sweet spot. Like two's to me
the sweet spot. If Cooper Cup can get two touchdowns
and a hundred and thirty or a hundred fifty yards,
I think the Rams be hard for them to lose.
But of course you have to play defense also some
of the other I'm just kind of scamming or skimming,
not scamming, skimming. Uh, the prop bets. Here's one Tyler
(31:10):
Boyd and Van Jefferson to combine for over half a touchdown.
So do you think the the third fourth receiver, depending
on who you look at at the depth chart, Tyler
Boyd Van Jefferson will score a touchdown that is plus
one twenty on a Yes, that's what I would throw
(31:31):
out and say that's not a bad a bad wager
because Cooper Cup and Odell Beckham can be covered or
you know, you can just try to open it up
and keep the Bengals on their toes if you're the
Rams offensively, and Sean McVeigh likes to to do that
kind of stuff, So I would take a shot with
(31:51):
something like that. I love that dude Van Jefferson's music.
He has that song brown Eyed girl, right, Yes, yes,
you know he's pretty. It's odd that he's still playing
in the in the NFL. You'd think that. Yeah, do
something else some of the other novelty props on Draft Kings.
Will do a few more of these, and then we'll
get to the game itself. Will any kick hit the uprights?
(32:16):
You can bend on a double doink if you will,
and yes is plus four d No is minus five fifty.
No would obviously be the the safe conservative wager. I
would go no, h But it's not one of those things.
(32:38):
I mean, this is one of those just kind of
for fun things on DraftKings where it just adds another
layer when you're watching the game and every time there's
a kick, and and it's any kicks, so that doesn't
you know, you say, there may be only be a
couple of field goal attempts in the game, but they'll
they'll be extra point attempts after touchdowns. So one of
those and now Michaels goes it hits the upright, Yeah,
(32:58):
there you go. You're one four d bucks if you
bet Ben Mickey Guiton. She's a country singer. She's gonna
be singing the national anthem over under seconds. Yeah, so
this is one of those things that has gotten shorter
in recent years. I would take the under. I would
(33:20):
that's a low that's a low number, But I would
take the under and not. What I would try to
do is find somebody that works at so Fi Stadium
it's there while they're rehearsing, and figure figure out what's
going But what you going on there? But I would
take the under. Are you what do you they? Yeah,
it is a tough one because it's gonna be right.
Vegas has this number pretty exact. I'm thinking it's gonna
(33:45):
go like one second over. So to take the all,
I'm thinking she's gonna bask in the glory for a
second longer. Yeah, I would think you would want to.
If you're doing the national anthem at the Super Bowl,
that's you, everyone's looking at you. Why don't you just
kind of milk and you know, go word by word
and stretch it out and all that. This is a
(34:07):
This is an interesting one. I had to look this
one up. It said on Draft Kings you can bet
will there be an octopus? Um? So the octopus? I
guess this is something that came up somebody from sports illustrator.
I mentioned this on the radio show the other night,
something that some guy from Sports Illustrated made up in
twenty nineteen, and they said, this is. Let's say Cooper
(34:32):
Cup as an example. He scores the touchdown. The Rams
then go for two, and he scores the two point conversion.
That that is seen as the octopus. Yes is plus
four hundred, No is minus two fifty or two thousand
five math being my friend, so I would on this one.
(34:56):
You you again, you say no, but the Rams throw
the ball. I could see Cooper Cooper Cup getting the touchdown.
May when we get that extra point, that two point
conversion because I missed extra point, so you know for
for plus four? Yeah, why not? It's It hasn't happened
very many times in NFL history. The two point conversion
(35:17):
has only been around since I think, so they didn't
even have that before, I think is what the number
was on that. All right, let's do a couple more here,
a couple more prop bets actually know that. Why don't
we get to the game itself. Oh man, you have
a drum roll on your instant replay three sixty there,
(35:40):
let's see here, I have everything else. I don't feel
like give me a drum roll. You want a drum roll,
I don't know. I have the this is the one
I like. I like that for the big picks. I
don't see a drum roll in here. I have to
have to add the drum roll. I have some exotic,
exotic things out here, but I don't know the drum all.
But before we get to the game spread, the actual
(36:02):
game spread, and this is kind of cool. You can
check this out at Draftkiing sports Book online there on
your app on your phone. They have alternative spreads, alternative spreads,
and so what the way this works? If you think
the Bangles are gonna embarrass the Rams and they're going
(36:23):
to win by nineteen points or more, you can you
can bet on that, right, You can bet on the
Bengals waning by a ton of points or or you
can get the Bengals plus nineteen, depending on thing on
how you you want to do it there. But there's
(36:45):
different ways you can go back, like, for example, the Rams,
if you think they're gonna blow out the Bengals and
win this game forty one to twenty or something like that,
you get minus nineteen, but you get plus four seventy five.
So you're getting a lot out of value in that,
and it goes all the way the other way where
(37:06):
the Rams. You could bet the Rams plus seven and
a half, which would seem like a pretty good bet,
but your your the juice on that is gonna get
you because minus and this is the same thing works
for the Bangets. You can do uh, plus nineteen all
the way down to Bengals minus seven and a half.
I think I said minus nineteen, but it's plus nineteen
(37:28):
down to Bengals minus seven and a half on Draft Kings.
So that's kind of an alternative. I I've never really
dabbled in that world, but I'm sure there are plenty
of people that are. That's their their jam, and that's
the thing, and it's it is a nice option if
you you're a little uncomfortable with the point spread the
way it is. But the Rams are favored by four
(37:51):
and a half. The over under is forty eight and
a half. You know, leading up to Danny, It's now time, Danny,
are you ready to make Dan E. G s smoke
phone guaranteed Super Bowl fifty six pick right now on
the Fifth Hour Podcast. Yes. Now, First of all, I'm
gonna take the over on the total points, all right,
(38:13):
take the over on that. And because you do support
the Rams, I feel like it is my responsibility and
duty to back up the Bengals brigade a k a.
The Bungles in the jungle. So I'm gonna say it
is a walk off as the Bengals special team has
been clutch all season. The Bengals thirty four the Rams
(38:37):
thirty one walk off winner for the Bungles. All right,
and we will play this back in goof on you
when that does not happen, Miller. So, as I said
the other night, the Rams I on the Mallard scale
of confidence, as I said on the radio show, uh
and the Mallard scale of confidence is never wrong, Danny.
(38:59):
It's never wrong unless it is no, no, no no.
I am at a solid eight point five on the
Mallard scale of confidence one to ten. So I think
they'll win the game. The total I had thirty one
seven Rams, so that would be under the forty eight
(39:19):
and a half. So I'll go against you all, be
the guy that takes the under forty eight and a half.
But I will take the Bengals also plus the points
because I think that I'm taking the Rams to win.
But I said Rams thirty one Bengals seven. But I'm
not a bad fan. This is called gambler's insurance, than
(39:43):
for sports fans, not gamblers, called being a weenie fan.
It's called being it's a sports fan insurance. And what
it what it means is that you know if no, no,
it means that I I'm covering myself. I I hope
I lose the spet. I want the Rams to win
the game by thirty five points. I want to be
(40:04):
sending troll tweets out to Rob Parker and Bernie and
all these guys that have been against Matthew Stafford. But
the only way that happens if the Rams blow out
the opposition. Otherwise, uh, you know, I gotta sweat it
out and all that stuff. So I what right now?
You can hear a mouse urinating? And would I be
(40:25):
wrong if I if I sent that out to Rob
after if the Rams win the Super Bowl? Would that
be inappropriate to say, Hey, it's so quiet, I can
hear Rob Parker urinating inside the Detroit and Stadium. Yeah. No,
his barbershop. He's got his barbershop that he's got anyway,
all right, Well, he was enjoy the game. And we
(40:46):
will have Jackie Slater on the Saturday podcast. We got
the mail bag on Sunday. That's your like super Bowl pregame,
so we're excited about that. By the way, Ben, what
how do you feel about eminem opping a bomb during
the halftime show. I'll definitely take that. Come on, man,
that'll be there'll be how many complaints to the f
(41:08):
c C. I can't believe my children heard that at
half time? I am how many times does the audio
cut out and go mute for a second because of
a curse word? It's on NBC. Uh. I'll take the
under on that, but I hope it's way over. I
(41:29):
hope it's way over. I'd like to see them in
the old days before people became really sensitive what they
used to do. And one of my favorite radio shows
would do this to Jim Healy show. He would put
the bleep in, but it was a little bit either
before or after where it was supposed to be, so
the word would still get on the air, but it
would sound like you were bleeping in. Yeah, it's like
(41:51):
half trying and you could get away with that. Back
in the days Danny where we did reel the real editing,
because you could say and you actually had a physically
put the bleep in the tape, and so you can say, well,
I tried, I I you know, I was putting the team.
Now the FCC would know what we're up to and
they would still find us exactly all right. Thanks again

And with that said, let's get right into it. Danny G.
The prop bets a proper Palooza edition of the Fifth Hour? Now,
(04:25):
should we save the the actual game? Even though I
gave it out on the radio? Should we should we
start with the game itself and then work our way
to the props. How do you want to do it? Now?
I think we should start with fun props and work
our way to the game. All right, you're the boss,
so we will. We will do that. Some of the
more they call them the kind of the exotic, the
(04:47):
the the super Bowl specials is what DraftKings calls it.
And all of these are available at DraftKings and so
check that out starting. I think you're thinking of ballet dancers.
Oh no, this is you know, inside gambling wing, you
know inside gambling. We go, Uh, some of the more
interesting props not both teams two X is this category
(05:11):
on DraftKings and these are Super Bowl special so both
teams to score two plus field goals in Super Bowl
fifty six that you can only bet yes on this.
That's plus two fifty. So now this actually seems like
a pretty good bet to me on the surface because
the Bengals Danny in this playoff run have been very
(05:35):
lopsided in favor of the kicking game, and the Rams
also have have shown a propensity of kicking a lot
of field goals. Mr Gay, they're the kickers, So I
think that's actually a pretty good bet at at plus
two fifty. I think the Bengals will cover their half.
The only thing that would worry me is it the
(05:56):
Rams offense roles. Will they finally be scoring touchdowns? Only
that's more for a Rams fan like you to answer, well,
that's also true. Yeah, yeah, that's obviously that'll kill you
because if one team jumps out, they're not gonna kick
field goals. They're gonna why would they bother, and they're
gonna have a big lead, so you wouldn't end up
kicking two field goals. Well, we'll both teams in Super
(06:17):
Bowl fifty six scored two or more passing touchdowns in
the game, so This is another one. I think this
is a highest scoring game. I think this game is
in the I say high score. I don't think it's
being the forties, but I'd love for it to be
in the forties. That really awesome, attract meat type game.
I think it'll be somewhere in the in the low thirties,
high twenties kind of that. Maybe more low thirties for
(06:39):
both um but Joe Burrow, sure, the Rams with all
their weapons. It's another It's well, you probably have to
pick one. You can't pick both, but I I certainly
see Burrow who hasn't hasn't lit up the scoreboard with
touchdown passes in this playoff. And Matthew Stafford. I think
the Bengals defense is in for a lot of a
(07:00):
lot of ulcers on Sunday. So that's another one that's attractive.
All all these are really popping out to me. Another
one of these, both teams to x Super Bowl special
props over at DraftKings, both teams to score a rushing
touchdown in Super Bowl fifty. So I don't think I
would take that one. Danny, Yeah, I mean yeah, I
(07:22):
think I would stay away from that. And you'resondn't gonna
go by the way. Yeah, Well, the plan that that
I heard, we'll see if it changed, you know, up
right up until you know the game this weekend. But
as I heard recently was that they're going to rotate
all three running backs, so whoever, whoever doesn't suck, we'll
get the ball more. I think I think that's the
(07:42):
Well we know you're boy McVeigh has lied to us
about running backs before. Well he has. He has had
to because he had he had running backs that were
supposed to be good that weren't. And yeah, uh, we'll
both teams have the lead in the first half. So
this is another one, Danny, that I look at and
I'm I go, Okay, Let's say the Bengals come down,
(08:03):
they get the kick off, they come down, get a field,
and then the Rams get all they go back get
a touchdown. Boom. I've already covered that right away. Uh. Now,
the problem is if the Rams or the Bengals come
out and score two early touchdowns, then you're screwed. So yeah,
because then the other team would score in the second quarter, hopefully.
And the odds on this yes is plus one fifty
(08:25):
No is minus one eight on that. I just hope
the super Bowl is better than the last one. The
Rams were in My God, that was terrible. God, that
was horrible. That last prop bed. I'd stay away from
that prop action. Boss. All right, we'll both teams have
the lead in the second half, so that would mean
this is a nip and tuck game. Yes is plus
(08:47):
one all on Draft Kings. By the way, again, if
you missed the beginning of a podcast, I don't know
how you could, but if you did, I'm actually on
the live air all made possible by Draft Kings. No
is minus one nine. I would say yeah, because I
feel like they are going to be going back and
forth in the fourth quarter. Yeah, I hope not. I
want to enjoy a nice, comfortable wind. I tend to
(09:09):
agree with you, but I hope that's not the case.
But that's just hope. We'll both teams have to lead
in the fourth quarter. So you think if you think
is a back and fourth game, then yes, you're getting
great value if you think this game goes back and
forth where both teams have lead fourth quarter, Yes is
plus three hundred. Okay, so bet a hundred win three
hundred and get get that back and know it's minus
(09:31):
one forty at DraftKings, so God, knowing my luck, it
will be like back and forth and pull out with
little hair I have remaining, Uh, some of the other
props here just you know, looking gazing over the drafting site,
and they do a great job. They have everything weighed out.
(09:52):
A number of Cincinnati Bengals to have a pass reception
over six and a half under six NA. So it's
Burrow gonna spread the ball around and I have to
go back and look at the numbers during the season.
I know it certainly seems like watching the Bengals in
the playoffs, Danny. They've been doing that. They've been mixing
and I mean everyone talks about Jr. Mar Chase, but
(10:13):
Higgins is pretty good. There's a there's a bunch of
guys on the Bengals that are kind of around the
same same areas. So I think that's that's a yes.
I would think I would think so too. And even
though Ramsey is gonna, hopefully for you, lockdown Chase as
much as he can, Chase isn't a huge receiver, so
(10:35):
I think he could get in some work against Ramsey.
So let me let me see here and I'm doing
this on the fly. Let me check the last pango
game here, how many people had reception. That doesn't mean
what happened just happens gonna happen again. But oh yeah,
so he Burrow was able to spread the ball around.
They were It's actually close. There were seven by my
(10:58):
mother or matth here. There were seven Bengals that caught
passes in the a f C Championship game against the Chiefs.
So that's and that's why that number is at you know, six,
what what do we said? Number? Was that over under
six and a half. So so yeah, it's right there.
I mean, are you saying Vegas knows exactly where to
put this number? I'm saying that they didn't just throw
(11:21):
this The people a DraftKings did not just throw this
against the wall. They actually looked at it. The same
same prop bet with the Rams, So you can do
the same thing with the Rams, and I imagine looking
back at the NFC Championship game, the number was about
the same. They're uh, let's see one to three, four, five, six, seven,
So yeah, exactly, So it's this. This is one of
(11:43):
those prop bets. If you bet this, you're probably sweating
it out in the fourth quarter. Yeah, probably needs some
guy that's a nobody the flotsam and jetsam to catch
a pass for you to win that bet. Yeah, gambling
was legal in California. I'd stay away from this one, alright.
Total first downs in the game another profit you can
(12:04):
do over DraftKings. So let's see your total first downs. Now,
the over under this is for I believe both teams
over under forty and a half. It's gotta be you
gotta be over under. That's a lot of first downs.
I would stay away from from this one. Over is
(12:24):
one one minus one fifteen. Under under forty and a
half is also obviously minus one fifteen. Uh so there's that. Uh,
let's see. Let's move on to some of the other
So the profits MNNA go through those. Uh First, they
have a section on DraftKings called first play, first play
(12:44):
super Bowl special So this is first place specials. Will
either quarterback get sacked on their first offensive play? Oh?
Now that check this out. That is plus So if
you think the Rams are really that much better physically
upfront than the Bengals offensive line, and there could be
(13:06):
some first snap jitters, my first snap jitters, of course,
for this to work, you have to you have to
throw the ball in the first play of the game,
which both teams probably will. But yes, it's plus two
twenty or plus uh two thousand five. If I could speak,
that would help. I I might throw a couple of
bucks down on Burrow getting sacked on the first play.
(13:30):
In honor of your boy Jackie Slater coming on the
podcast Saturday. He was on l A t V last
weekend saying he thinks the Rams defense is gonna get
to Burrow early. Yeah, Jackie was Jackie. Jackie was very kind.
He's given him some time. We're gonna have him on
Saturday podcast and I'm looking for that. Will either team
commit a turnover on their first offensive play? Who oh,
(13:55):
it's plus two thousand at Traftkings It's another one. Now,
I wouldn't bet a lot on it. You don't bet
a lot on something like that. But I keep going
back to that first play. Jitters for both Matthew Stafford
and Joe Brow. We've all seen it, Danny. How many
Super Bowls we watched over the years where guys come on,
they got that stage fright, and even guys that have
(14:16):
been in big games before it's a whole different world
than the Super Bowl with everyone watching. My god, I
I I would I guess another I look at it.
I'm like, I could see a scenario where Stafford comes out,
chucks it down the field to Beckham and it ends
up getting picked off on the first pass. And I
can also see Joe Burrow trying to chuck it out
(14:36):
to Jamaar Chase and force it in there and you
know the next thing, you know, all of a sudden,
uh yeah, it's uh not going your way. So uh
you can also bet as his standard DraftKings has the
odds on this first offensive play of the game, will
it be a rush or a pass. The Rams lately
(14:59):
have been running the all more, trying to establish the run.
That must be the the influence. Maybe that was Jackie Slayterson.
You gotta establish the run, um. But both teams throw
a a lot, but the Rams. It's just that the
Rams became good again when they had that losing streak,
and since then they've run the ball more. But it's
still top heavy in favor of the passing attack. So
(15:22):
there there is that on Draftings. By the way, that's
Russia's minus pass U is plus one some of the
game specials. These are all Super Bowl specials. On Draft Kings, any,
I like this one. Any non quarterback to throw a
(15:43):
touchdown pass in Super Bowl fifty six? Now, we saw
Odell Beckham in a ram game not that long ago
throw a touchdown pass. Have the Bengals done any of that?
I'm not. I'm off the top of my head. I
don't know. It's possible that did it sometime during the season,
but I don't remember recently. I wouldn't take the action
(16:05):
there on that. I don't think either team's gonna try
to get too cute. Well, that's the thing that if
it works, you're a genius. If not, you're you're a clown,
you know, and everyone goose on you for the rest
of time. Can you believe that that coach read a
gimbick hook and ladder play in the Super Bowl? You
know that unsure of themselves that they have to run
(16:29):
trick plays? Dude, what got you to the dance? What
do you do? And all right? Uh? And I like
this one also on DraftKings. Well, any offensive lineman score
a touchdown in the Super Bowl, this is plus to twenty.
I'd be great. How about the mr forty year old
there for the Ams on the offensive line, the older player.
(16:51):
I think he's the oldest player now that Brady's out,
at least non kicker in the NFL. I'll throw him
a bone, get get him a touch down. That would
be cool. I'd be great. I'd love that. I still
I was a little kid when William Perry, better known
as Refrigerator Perry, scored a touchdown in the Super Bowl,
and that was in the days before social media. But
(17:13):
as a fat kid, I thought that was the coolest
thing that I had seen. I wouldn't kind of jumped
on the Bears band waking a little bit that year
was a child, because I loved fridge uh and all that,
and that was that was cool enough. But I do
remember people, even in the days before social media, Danny
ripping the Bears because that should have been Walter Payton's
touchdown and they gave it to You know, there's rumors
(17:35):
that it could be Andrew Whitworth's final game of his career.
So come on, Rams, throwing a bone, Yeah, yeah, that
you know that'll be neat will any player have at
least a hundred and fifty rushing or receiving yards in
Super Bowl fifty six, Yes, is plus one seventy five.
I think you gotta take yes on that. That's Cooper Cup,
(17:58):
a couple of big catches. That Odell Beckham, that's Jamar Chase.
We got three or four receivers in this game alone.
I wouldn't bet on the running backs, but three or
four receivers that are capable more than capable of getting
a hundred and fifty yards in the in the Super Bowl.
Cooper Cup against the Niners in a low scoring game
had a hundred and forty two yards in that game.
(18:21):
And you know, you look Tee Higgins went on over
a hundred yards against the Chiefs for the Bengals. So
I would look at that, and that's why that that
numbers only plus one sevent I would say yes on that.
What else, do we have any quarterback to have four
or more passing touchdowns? Oh, that's a time that would
(18:44):
be a blowout, right, I would stay away from that one. Yeah.
On DraftKings, that's plus four hundred. If you're confident in
Joe Burrow or Matthew Stafford getting it done. Will any
team kick a game winning walkoff field goal at the
end of regulation time. I would take this one. Yeah,
(19:04):
you think it's going to be that kind of game?
Plus five hundred on the prop on this plus five
dred well any team recover a successful on side kick
in the Super Bowl. You can only bet yes on
it at DraftKings is plus and see. If you could
bet no, you would bet on it. But I wouldn't
(19:25):
bet yes on it because, Yeah, I don't think that's
that's gonna happen. Fewest points scored by one team this
weekend on Super Bowl Sunday, So the fewest points scored
by one team. The over under is nineteen and a half. Boy,
I hope we have both teams over that I would
(19:45):
hate if this is a fourteen thirteen game, that would suck. Yeah,
your team did this to us the last time they
were in the Super Bowl. Please score thirty points this time. Rams.
Don't be picking on the rent ramming out because I
barely remember the last time the Raiders are in the
Super Bowl. Uh. First coaches challenge. You can bet on this.
(20:10):
You can bet on everything over at Draftings. They got
everything for you on the prop bets. First coaches challenge.
Will it be the Rams or the Bengals Rams or
minus one twenty Bengals or minus one ten on that
who will call the first time out? The Rams are
minus Bengals or minus one five Sean McVeigh. He has
(20:30):
a tendency of burning time outs like he hates if
the plays of the loft. He would rather burn a
time out then get called for a penalty. The perfectionist,
I would bet on the Rams. And Rams they came
back against the Niners in that game and in the
press box everyone was like mumbling, oh, they have no
time outs and there was like ten minutes left to
go in the game. They burned their last time out
(20:52):
and they still were able to win the game. Who
needs time They don't need draft picks. The Rams, they
don't need time outs during the game. They know, let's
go there. Unorthodox Danny is what they are, all right?
What is next year? We have on the the Proper
Peloser your primer for the big Super Bowl match up
(21:13):
here and some of the other wagers that stand out
the player matchups and this is pretty cool. Also on
DraftKings they have Super Bowl fifty six match bets, So
the most passing touchdowns match bet Stafford versus Joe Burrow
most passing touchdowns, and you can bet on Stafford plus
(21:37):
one oh five, Burrow is plus one fifty, and then
a tie is plus three ten. So those are the
the options. Man, It's that's a tough one. Burro has
not been throwing the touchdowns in the playoffs, but that's
as Dick Stockton taught me, Danny, that tells you what
has happened. That doesn't tell you what's going to happen.
(21:58):
And the Bengals have a lot of moment him right now. No,
I don't say that. Wash your mouth thought was so
I dare you? How dare you? Danny G Yeah, we're
gonna bleep that on the podcast that our podcasts have
a lot of momentum right now themselves. Dare you? Well,
they are doing that. That is the podcast is doing well,
(22:18):
but they don't have momentum. They don't have that. All right,
let's see what else do we have? Most mentioned the
most touchdowns? How about most passing yards in a match?
Bet for Super Bowl fifty six Stafford Burrow. Stafford is
a minus one twenty favorite, so this is a and
and Burrow is plus one draft kings. So there's another one, Danny,
(22:41):
where if you think one team is going to be behind,
you would bet on that quarterback because the passing yard
is totals. You're passing on every play. You're not playing conservative,
You're throwing it down the field. Um, so that that
really if you think the Bengals are gonna behind, then
you would bet on. Oh, if you think the Rams
are gonna behind, you had been on staff. And remember
(23:03):
even when the Bengals were behind against Kansas City, they
still were kind of stubborn and running the ball a
little bit with mixing. Yeah, I popped up on Kansas
City radio on Thursday morning. They're still reeling Danny, but
they have not gotten over that loss. It is not
good for the Chiefs fans and their hero, the man
(23:24):
that had made no mistakes, had been Mr Perfect in
the postseason early at Arrowhead. Um, my goodness, Patrick Mahomes,
what did you That was like a tragedy? In second?
Who are doing? Bill miller Man? Anyway, back to the props,
I'm sorry, I get carried away. What do we have next?
(23:46):
How about most receiving yards? This is a good matchup.
You have the the rookie Jamaar Chase versus the hot
shot all pro in Cooper Cup most receiving yards in
the match bet on DraftKings. Cooper Cup is a mine
is two hundred favorite. Jamaar Chase is plus one six.
It's hard to argue with that. It's this is a
(24:08):
once in a in a career season Cooper Cups had.
He'll never be this good again. I am okay with that. Uh,
just play well in the super Bowl and then you can,
you know, you can do something else. I'm fine, So
I would take I would take the chalk and Cooper Cup. Uh.
Here's an interesting one. Danny on the prop bets most
receiving yards on the match bet. Uh. And then you
(24:30):
can combine Cooper Cup and cam Akers with Jamaar Chase
and Joe Mix. So I don't think cam Akers is
really going to be much of anything in the passing game.
And I'm still upset of him. I I haven't taken
him out of the penalty box for what he did
against Tampa. Ball on the ground, bug on the rug,
(24:51):
uh and all that. But it's not like cam Akers
is not like a a central part of the passing game.
He had one catch in the NFC Champion Chip Game
for two yards. Well and you do. Got to give
him a lot of props for rushing back from that injury. Yeah, no,
that's I mean, it was great he came back and played.
And if the Rams win the super Bowl, I will
forgive him. I will pardon him. I know he's very concerned.
(25:14):
Cam Akers can't probably can't sleep thinking about Well, I
get a Mallard pardon. That's the question. Most receiving yards
And this is also interesting the and you go through.
There's a bunch of these. We're only gonna use some
of them. We're not gonna do all of them. Most
receiving yards match bet Odell Beckham. You can bet Beckham
versus Tyler Boyd on Draft Kings. Beckham is minus two
(25:35):
hundred in the matchup with Tyler Boyd. Tee Higgins is
actually favored over Beckham at minus So I I have
a feeling Beckham is gonna really light it up this
super Bowl. And this is like his redemption story Becka.
It's Beckham and Stafford the redemption in the Super Bowl.
So I would I would lean to Becco. I think
(25:58):
he's gonna have a big game. I think he will
be will be yin and yang with Cooper Cup, and
if I'm right and this is a high scoring game,
they will each have huge stat lines, and I mean
Bengals will score also, So, uh, what else do we
have here? These are actual props as far as they
have one. I have a quick one for you, all right?
(26:19):
Are you a heads or tails guy? With that opening
coin toss? I thought you're gonna talking about dating? Um?
Uh No, I don't have a solid one way that
I usually in the past, I've always gone heads, but
I don't. I mean, I'm opened, I'm open minded to tails.
What about you? Then? Are you a heads guy or tales?
(26:40):
You know? I would say Tales, not just because of
my tender Roni, but because alec Ingold of the Raiders,
their fullback before he got injured, he was on a
winning streak. Anytime he would call Tales, the Raiders would
win the overtime coin toss, I like going with Tales. Yeah.
Just for the record, my wife, who probably is not listening,
(27:01):
but I am a fan of Tales turned on. I'm
a fan out of the tail. But I and this,
I do, I do the heads all right? What else
we have? Both teams these are all on DraftKings. He's
proper beats. You can bet them right now if you
are in a state that has a Draft Kings sports book.
If not, you can go on Draft Kings and you can.
(27:23):
They have a great website and you can find out
who you need to send a letter to, what politicians
you need to send it, send a letter to to
get Draft Kings sports book in your state. And listen,
we we live in a state, Danny, where we don't
have it and we want it, and they have. I
went on their website Draft Kings in California and you can.
(27:45):
They have a list of what needs to happen and
who you need to contact, and it's very simple for
you on the Draft Kings website. So but but fortunately
a lot of the states now most states are more
reasonable in California and have sports wagerings, so some of
the other profits on DraftKings. Both teams have scored twenty
five plus points and Joe Burrow and Matthew Stafford to
(28:08):
have two hundred fifty or more passing yards each, So
this is another one of those combined bets. But if
you think both teams are gonna score twenty five or
more points, wouldn't you think both quarterbacks are gonna have
two hundred fifty or more yards passing. I would think, yeah,
do you only bet on guests on that? That's plus
four fifty The odds are against that, but plus four fifty. Well,
(28:31):
cam Akers score the first game touchdown and Joe Mixon
scored the second game touchdown. No, yeah, I would go
no on that. But you can only bet yes. And
if you want to risk a little and win a lot.
He used to work with a guy that likes to
say that risk a little one a lot. Plus five
fifty on this five thousand and fifty, So you will
(28:54):
uh my goodness, if you bet a hundred bucks, you
could win five thousand five it on the payout on that,
So that's not bad at all. Cam Akers will lea
score the first touchdown and the second touchdown. No, no, no,
But you can bet only yes, yes, if you want
to win a lot. And if you have inside information
(29:15):
from the Rams locker room that they're gonna feed cam
Acers the ball inside the ten yard line, that is
plus h on that. Uh. We keep going here. These
are player props and there are so many. We're only
gonna get to a little bit. We're gonna scratch the surface.
Then we're not getting in the middle of I mean,
we're getting a lot of the good ones, but there's
(29:38):
some some really interesting bets on trafficks. Here's what either
Joe Burrow or Matthew Stafford have a reception in the
Super Bowl. So this would go back to the trick
play thing. Yeah, we I do realize that one of
the more famous plays in Super Bowl history. I got
facts in Philly is Philadelphia Eagles there and Nick Foles
(30:01):
and his his unathletic ability. If Nick Foles can can
make a play that the Philly Special and all that,
then why yeah, I mean it would be fun. But
I think both of our o c s and head
coaches in this game are creative on their own without
trick plays, except for when the Bengals get real stubborn
and try to keep running mixing up the middle like
(30:24):
the Raiders do. Josh Jacobs, Yeah, that is annoying when
they won't give that up. Will either Jamaar Chase or
Cooper Cup scored three or more touchdowns individually? You can
bet on this on DraftKings. Yes is plus eight hundreds.
Yes is plus eight hundred and that I can't put
no on it. I would go no on that. I
(30:46):
think like two's the sweet spot. Like two's to me
the sweet spot. If Cooper Cup can get two touchdowns
and a hundred and thirty or a hundred fifty yards,
I think the Rams be hard for them to lose.
But of course you have to play defense also some
of the other I'm just kind of scamming or skimming,
not scamming, skimming. Uh, the prop bets. Here's one Tyler
(31:10):
Boyd and Van Jefferson to combine for over half a touchdown.
So do you think the the third fourth receiver, depending
on who you look at at the depth chart, Tyler
Boyd Van Jefferson will score a touchdown that is plus
one twenty on a Yes, that's what I would throw
(31:31):
out and say that's not a bad a bad wager
because Cooper Cup and Odell Beckham can be covered or
you know, you can just try to open it up
and keep the Bengals on their toes if you're the
Rams offensively, and Sean McVeigh likes to to do that
kind of stuff, So I would take a shot with
(31:51):
something like that. I love that dude Van Jefferson's music.
He has that song brown Eyed girl, right, Yes, yes,
you know he's pretty. It's odd that he's still playing
in the in the NFL. You'd think that. Yeah, do
something else some of the other novelty props on Draft Kings.
Will do a few more of these, and then we'll
get to the game itself. Will any kick hit the uprights?
(32:16):
You can bend on a double doink if you will,
and yes is plus four d No is minus five fifty.
No would obviously be the the safe conservative wager. I
would go no, h But it's not one of those things.
(32:38):
I mean, this is one of those just kind of
for fun things on DraftKings where it just adds another
layer when you're watching the game and every time there's
a kick, and and it's any kicks, so that doesn't
you know, you say, there may be only be a
couple of field goal attempts in the game, but they'll
they'll be extra point attempts after touchdowns. So one of
those and now Michaels goes it hits the upright, Yeah,
(32:58):
there you go. You're one four d bucks if you
bet Ben Mickey Guiton. She's a country singer. She's gonna
be singing the national anthem over under seconds. Yeah, so
this is one of those things that has gotten shorter
in recent years. I would take the under. I would
(33:20):
that's a low that's a low number, But I would
take the under and not. What I would try to
do is find somebody that works at so Fi Stadium
it's there while they're rehearsing, and figure figure out what's
going But what you going on there? But I would
take the under. Are you what do you they? Yeah,
it is a tough one because it's gonna be right.
Vegas has this number pretty exact. I'm thinking it's gonna
(33:45):
go like one second over. So to take the all,
I'm thinking she's gonna bask in the glory for a
second longer. Yeah, I would think you would want to.
If you're doing the national anthem at the Super Bowl,
that's you, everyone's looking at you. Why don't you just
kind of milk and you know, go word by word
and stretch it out and all that. This is a
(34:07):
This is an interesting one. I had to look this
one up. It said on Draft Kings you can bet
will there be an octopus? Um? So the octopus? I
guess this is something that came up somebody from sports illustrator.
I mentioned this on the radio show the other night,
something that some guy from Sports Illustrated made up in
twenty nineteen, and they said, this is. Let's say Cooper
(34:32):
Cup as an example. He scores the touchdown. The Rams
then go for two, and he scores the two point conversion.
That that is seen as the octopus. Yes is plus
four hundred, No is minus two fifty or two thousand
five math being my friend, so I would on this one.
(34:56):
You you again, you say no, but the Rams throw
the ball. I could see Cooper Cooper Cup getting the touchdown.
May when we get that extra point, that two point
conversion because I missed extra point, so you know for
for plus four? Yeah, why not? It's It hasn't happened
very many times in NFL history. The two point conversion
(35:17):
has only been around since I think, so they didn't
even have that before, I think is what the number
was on that. All right, let's do a couple more here,
a couple more prop bets actually know that. Why don't
we get to the game itself. Oh man, you have
a drum roll on your instant replay three sixty there,
(35:40):
let's see here, I have everything else. I don't feel
like give me a drum roll. You want a drum roll,
I don't know. I have the this is the one
I like. I like that for the big picks. I
don't see a drum roll in here. I have to
have to add the drum roll. I have some exotic,
exotic things out here, but I don't know the drum all.
But before we get to the game spread, the actual
(36:02):
game spread, and this is kind of cool. You can
check this out at Draftkiing sports Book online there on
your app on your phone. They have alternative spreads, alternative spreads,
and so what the way this works? If you think
the Bangles are gonna embarrass the Rams and they're going
(36:23):
to win by nineteen points or more, you can you
can bet on that, right, You can bet on the
Bengals waning by a ton of points or or you
can get the Bengals plus nineteen, depending on thing on
how you you want to do it there. But there's
(36:45):
different ways you can go back, like, for example, the Rams,
if you think they're gonna blow out the Bengals and
win this game forty one to twenty or something like that,
you get minus nineteen, but you get plus four seventy five.
So you're getting a lot out of value in that,
and it goes all the way the other way where
(37:06):
the Rams. You could bet the Rams plus seven and
a half, which would seem like a pretty good bet,
but your your the juice on that is gonna get
you because minus and this is the same thing works
for the Bangets. You can do uh, plus nineteen all
the way down to Bengals minus seven and a half.
I think I said minus nineteen, but it's plus nineteen
(37:28):
down to Bengals minus seven and a half on Draft Kings.
So that's kind of an alternative. I I've never really
dabbled in that world, but I'm sure there are plenty
of people that are. That's their their jam, and that's
the thing, and it's it is a nice option if
you you're a little uncomfortable with the point spread the
way it is. But the Rams are favored by four
(37:51):
and a half. The over under is forty eight and
a half. You know, leading up to Danny, It's now time, Danny,
are you ready to make Dan E. G s smoke
phone guaranteed Super Bowl fifty six pick right now on
the Fifth Hour Podcast. Yes. Now, First of all, I'm
gonna take the over on the total points, all right,
(38:13):
take the over on that. And because you do support
the Rams, I feel like it is my responsibility and
duty to back up the Bengals brigade a k a.
The Bungles in the jungle. So I'm gonna say it
is a walk off as the Bengals special team has
been clutch all season. The Bengals thirty four the Rams
(38:37):
thirty one walk off winner for the Bungles. All right,
and we will play this back in goof on you
when that does not happen, Miller. So, as I said
the other night, the Rams I on the Mallard scale
of confidence, as I said on the radio show, uh
and the Mallard scale of confidence is never wrong, Danny.
(38:59):
It's never wrong unless it is no, no, no no.
I am at a solid eight point five on the
Mallard scale of confidence one to ten. So I think
they'll win the game. The total I had thirty one
seven Rams, so that would be under the forty eight
(39:19):
and a half. So I'll go against you all, be
the guy that takes the under forty eight and a half.
But I will take the Bengals also plus the points
because I think that I'm taking the Rams to win.
But I said Rams thirty one Bengals seven. But I'm
not a bad fan. This is called gambler's insurance, than
(39:43):
for sports fans, not gamblers, called being a weenie fan.
It's called being it's a sports fan insurance. And what
it what it means is that you know if no, no,
it means that I I'm covering myself. I I hope
I lose the spet. I want the Rams to win
the game by thirty five points. I want to be
(40:04):
sending troll tweets out to Rob Parker and Bernie and
all these guys that have been against Matthew Stafford. But
the only way that happens if the Rams blow out
the opposition. Otherwise, uh, you know, I gotta sweat it
out and all that stuff. So I what right now?
You can hear a mouse urinating? And would I be
(40:25):
wrong if I if I sent that out to Rob
after if the Rams win the Super Bowl? Would that
be inappropriate to say, Hey, it's so quiet, I can
hear Rob Parker urinating inside the Detroit and Stadium. Yeah. No,
his barbershop. He's got his barbershop that he's got anyway,
all right, Well, he was enjoy the game. And we
(40:46):
will have Jackie Slater on the Saturday podcast. We got
the mail bag on Sunday. That's your like super Bowl pregame,
so we're excited about that. By the way, Ben, what
how do you feel about eminem opping a bomb during
the halftime show. I'll definitely take that. Come on, man,
that'll be there'll be how many complaints to the f
(41:08):
c C. I can't believe my children heard that at
half time? I am how many times does the audio
cut out and go mute for a second because of
a curse word? It's on NBC. Uh. I'll take the
under on that, but I hope it's way over. I
(41:29):
hope it's way over. I'd like to see them in
the old days before people became really sensitive what they
used to do. And one of my favorite radio shows
would do this to Jim Healy show. He would put
the bleep in, but it was a little bit either
before or after where it was supposed to be, so
the word would still get on the air, but it
would sound like you were bleeping in. Yeah, it's like
(41:51):
half trying and you could get away with that. Back
in the days Danny where we did reel the real editing,
because you could say and you actually had a physically
put the bleep in the tape, and so you can say, well,
I tried, I I you know, I was putting the team.
Now the FCC would know what we're up to and
they would still find us exactly all right. Thanks again
