Speaker 1 (00:01):
Welcome in while Driving the Right Episode three eighty nine.
This episode has always is brought to you by our
friends at boost Mobile. A reminder to everyone like rate,
subscribe review, this is our I can't believe it's already
Week ten. A little sad and halfway through the NFL season.
It is our Week ten gambling show, coming off a

(00:25):
winning week for me, tough week for demanse might be
the first teaser all year. Demonse where you lost both
two of the three legs.

Speaker 2 (00:36):
Yeah, I don't know that you've had no I think
it's always been one.

Speaker 1 (00:40):
Yeah, you've always been one short. But that's okay. We'll rebound.
Uh And a reminder all the lines come from hard
rock bet. We went three and two last week. The
two losers were stone losers. Detroit minus eight and a
half against Minnesota they lose outright. Can't City minus one

(01:00):
and a half against Buffalo, they lose outright and get
thoroughly outplayed. So but the winners were pretty clear cut winners.
Pittsburgh getting three against Indy wins outright. San Francisco laying
two and a half against the Giants wins by double digits,
Seattle laying three against Washington up twenty eight to nothing.

(01:21):
I don't even know what the final was, but I
know they crushed them. So feel good. Felt good. Demon's
about our picks last week? Feel great about the picks
this week?

Speaker 2 (01:32):

get to the Stayaways for this week.

Speaker 2 (04:00):
Uh yeah, Steways. We got teams on biz Chiefs, Beangals, Cowboys, Titans,
and the first Stayaways Buffalo at Miami, Miami's nine point dogs.

Speaker 1 (04:10):
All right, so here's the deal. Miami, Miami, I think
is the right side here. Let down spot for Buffalo.
Miami played them closer than the score would indicate the
first time they played Miami. Also, I you know, is

(04:31):
on extra rest having played on a Thursday. Miami. Also,
I thought actually moved the ball quite well against Baltimore.
The problem is I thought Miami played well against Baltimore
and got blown out and scored six points. Like I am,
just like the The Dolphins are right now a very

(04:58):
very difficult team to put money on against good teams,
even though I think they are the right side in
this game. So I definitely would not lay the nine
with Buffalo. I'm staying away from it because I just
think Miami's high leverage execution has been so bad. But

(05:18):
Miami is the right side of this one.

Speaker 2 (05:21):
Next Baltimore at Minnesota, Minnesota's four point dogs.

Speaker 1 (05:27):
I almost included Minnesota in this. I think Minnesota at
home getting four with that defense and that coach I
think is the right side. However, JJ McCarthy still scares me.
Baltimore having extra rest and being obviously you know, every.

Speaker 2 (05:49):
Game to playoffs first game back either.

Speaker 1 (05:53):
Correct, and Lamar looked so good, you know, basically after
the first quarter and a half, I just felt like, man,
you bet Minnesota, this thing could be seventeen to three
at halftime and you just feel dead. So the I
think Minnesota is the sharp side, getting four with a

(06:13):
great coach at home and a defense coming off a
really good performance, But I just couldn't do it.

Speaker 2 (06:19):
Next, uh, Cleveland at the Jets Jets two point dogs.

Speaker 1 (06:24):
Yeah, so the Jets are the right side of this.
The Jets were two point favorites and then they traded
away their guys, and it flipped and the reality is
trading away two defensive players shouldn't move the line four points. However,

(06:49):
I am concerned that that other players on the Jets
are okay, season over, Yeah, the season over. We're done,
and so I can't as a matter of principle. And
by the way, that's three straight home dogs. I can't
bet Cleveland when I could have gotten them plus two

(07:10):
at minus two. But I also am too anxious to
put money on the Jets until I see them play
post these trades, so I'll stay away there.

Speaker 2 (07:19):
Next New Orleans at Carolina. Carolina's five point favorites.

Speaker 1 (07:25):
I don't think Carolina has won a game as a
favorite in four years. Be insane, Well, they're never so
it's a little misleading, but I do believe that's true.
I also think they would be the right side of it.
But if a team hasn't covered as a favorite in

(07:47):
four years, then i'm I'm I feel like, yeah, there's
other games, and also this is not the greatest process,
but I liked games enough this week that it was okay,
tie can go to I don't want to care about

(08:07):
this game. I don't want to care about this game.
At all, so it's just a stay away.

Speaker 2 (08:12):
Next we got Arizona at Seattle. Seattle six and a
half point favorites.

Speaker 1 (08:18):
I almost included Seattle. Arizona is just frisky enough with
Jacoby that I kept it as a stay away, but
Seattle's really good. Seattle is laying less than a touchdown.
Seattle can be a prolific offense. Seattle is on a
tiny rest edge because Arizona played Monday night, but that

(08:44):
the Cardinals have been in almost all their games this year,
and the offense has looked good with Jacoby, They've gotten
Marvin more involved. So I'll stay away, but I did
look long and hard at Sea.

Speaker 2 (09:01):
Now, next we got Rams at San Francisco. San Francisco
is four and a half point dogs.

Speaker 1 (09:07):
So the sharp side of this, I'm certain is San Francisco.
And if you're going to play aside here, you almost
have to play San Francisco. A great coach at home
against a team he has a lot of success against
getting more than a field goal. However, I really believe
the Rams are gonna win, and so I'm basically saying

(09:33):
I think this is gonna be a one, two, three
or four point Rams win. If I if I believe
they're gonna win, and I bet San Francisco, so I'll
stay away from it. But I know the right side
of this game is San Francisco. I feel very confident
in that.

Speaker 2 (09:48):
Next Detroit at Washington, Washington's eight point dogs.

Speaker 1 (09:56):
This is where gambling can be tough and where maybe
my process is bad. This should be a Detroit smash spot. Yeah,
because Washington is it's Mariota. Their season's done. Detroit just lost.
But I just laid eight points with Detroit and they

(10:19):
lost outright and got that bet was dead immediately. I
don't want to do it again. I that's probably dumb.
I should probably just swallow the eight points with Detroit,
But instead I'm staying away.

Speaker 2 (10:33):
Next one, Philly at green Bay. Green Bay's two point favorites. Yep,
you kind of talked about them on the show yesterday
and you ended up being a stay away. Which way
were you leaning before?

Speaker 1 (10:47):
I was leaning Philly Philly off a bye healthy. You know,
it feels like Philly getting points is a great spot. Yeah,
And what have me away from it is the desperation
disparity where Philly their players saw Washington season end, Dallas's

(11:10):
season end last week, and Green Bay, on the other hand,
knows how much they need it. So I that was
enough to just have it be a stay away. But
I think Philly getting points is against basically anyone in
the NFC is almost a must bet, but not quite.

Speaker 2 (11:29):
Oh imagine Jalen Hurts led team is still very focused
after the spy, a lot of desperation.

Speaker 1 (11:35):
Yeah, no, I do. I agree. I just think so again,
That's why I'm staying away. But I like the Philly
side of it. All right, demons, all our lines from
a hard rock bet. We've got five games here. Let's
go to the first one.

Speaker 2 (11:51):
First off, you've got Atlanta plus six and a half
versus Indy.

Speaker 1 (11:56):
Yeah, so this was Atlanta minus or plus five and
a half plus.

Speaker 2 (12:05):
This is also a Berlin game.

Speaker 1 (12:08):
Yes, Sunday morning, this is Atlanta plus five and a
half before the Colts traded for sauce. That's stupid. That
is a fans overreacting to a trade. A corner does
not move the point the game a full point. It
just doesn't, and so I'm getting a little extra value.

(12:34):
I also feel like I know the europe game's favorites
tend to win and win outright and cover. I think
I know they went out right a lot. It feels
like this is a one possession game. I do think
that Atlanta's defense might be able to slow down a

(12:55):
bit this prolific indie offense. I also feel like this
indie team is different on turf on a fast track
than it's going to be in Berlin. And I could
see Atlanta winning. I certainly can see Atlanta having this

(13:15):
game be tied at halftime or a four point game
in the fourth quarter. Bijon's gotta get going. Drake London
was awesome, unbelievable this past week, and I Pinix worries me,
but I'll take the extra point I'm getting because of
the sauce trade, and I'll take it. Lanta plus the

(13:37):
six and a half, all right?

Speaker 2 (13:40):
Next Tampa Bay minus two and a half versus New England.

Speaker 1 (13:45):
Yeah, I think. I think New England's really good, but
Tampa I think is better. They are off a bye.
The Patriots were flirting with a loss last week. That
you know they are kind of for a loss, so
to speak. Drake May is getting hit a ton, and

(14:06):
he admitted some of that's on him. That concerns me
a bit Baker off of bye four and oh straight
up is a favorite. Uh and six and four against
the spread with extended rest with the Bucks again, I'm
getting what I think is the better team, and there's
no disrespect to New England, the better team with the

(14:28):
better quarterback at home off a bye, and I'm laying
less than a field goal. So as good as New
England's been, I think Tampa wins this game, and I
think Tampa wins this game by at least a field goal.
So I've got Tampa minus two and a half next.

Speaker 2 (14:46):
Jacksonville minus won at Houston.

Speaker 1 (14:50):
Yeah, this is just purely a.

Speaker 2 (14:53):
Whe Well.

Speaker 1 (14:56):
Yeah, fading Davis Mills, I mean, the tech Neuson's offense
was awful with CIJ.

Speaker 2 (15:04):
I wasn't even thinking about CJ. Stroud not playing. Yeah,
that being my next one for the Jags I think
is kind of crazy.

Speaker 1 (15:11):
Yeah, I mean, Davis Mills has started amazingly twenty five
games in his career. They're five to nineteen and one
in those games, and so the Jags defense is really good.
I understand there it's you know, a road divisional favorite,
but the the Broncos offense was awful this past week. Now,

(15:36):
Houston's defense had something do with it, to their credit,
but Houston could do nothing because CJ was out of
the game and CJ's already been ruled out. So I'll
just swallow the point with the Prince. It's bad for
the Chiefs. By the way, if the Jags win this game,
the Chiefs need one of those teams in the playoff
picture to fall out. The Jags are the one most

(15:58):
likely to do so. But I just think the Jags are.

Speaker 2 (16:03):
The Yeah, that line three and a half, I feel like, yeah, weird.

Speaker 1 (16:09):
With Davis, with Davis Mills being the quarterback. I'll just
take Houston just to win. It's all I need at
minus one, So I'll take Jacksonville next.

Speaker 2 (16:17):
Uh. Next, you got Chicago minus three and a half
versus the Giants.

Speaker 1 (16:22):
So I'm going to continue fading the Giants because my
belief that the Giants season ended with that devastating Broncos
loss has just been validated by their last two performances,
getting annihilated by the Eagles and getting beat by double
digits by the Niners.

Speaker 2 (16:43):
Jackson, but he's hurt right now.

Speaker 1 (16:46):
Yeah, that's a great point. Yeah, Jackson darts banged up,
Scataboo's out obviously for the year. Neighbors has been out
Brian Davell after starting seven and two as a rookie
head coach. They have started two and seven each of
the last three years. He's just always mad at everyone,
who's mad at himself, and the Bears have an explosive offense.

(17:14):
And by the way, a little benefit. This line is
four and a half. In most other places, it's three
and a half at hard Rock Bet. My my theory
on that for the record is hard Rock Bet. Obviously
you can use it in Jersey, so Giants fans there.

(17:35):
It's also the exclusive betting provider in Florida. A lot
of New York transplants there. So I think it has
been bet down from four and a half plus four
and a half to three and a half because all
that money's coming in on the Giants. They're trying to
get some Chicago money will take advantage of it Chicago
minus three and a half. And I just don't trust

(17:58):
the Giants Stevens right now, and I think that their
spirit was stolen in that Broncos loss. So all lay
three and a half with Caleb.

Speaker 2 (18:06):
Now one might be my favorite, uh, Pittsburgh plus plus
three at the Chargers.

Speaker 1 (18:12):
Yeah, I the Chargers without Joe, all against and all
of a sudden one game, but rejuvenated Steelers defense. And
I'm getting three points with Tomlin. And so obviously the
Steelers have to go east to west, which is an ideal,
but I'll deal with it. Tomlin again sixty seven forty

(18:37):
and four against the spread as an underdog, uh and
the week after winning outright as a dog, he's thirteen
six and two against the spread. I think the charge
I think the Steelers win this game, and if they don't,
I think it's a last second type of game. I'm
getting three points. So our five games are at Lana

(19:00):
getting six and a half against India and Berlin, Tampa
laying two and a half at home against the Patriots,
Jacksonville laying one on the road against Houston, Chicago laying
three and a half at home against the Giants, and
Pittsburgh getting the full three on the road against the Chargers. Oh,
one other thing about that Steelers game. That's gonna be

(19:23):
a silent count game for the Chargers, Demanse. That's gonna
be all Steelers fans taking over SOFI in La and
so that's the other piece that's not really a road
game for them. All Right, You think about upgrading to

Terms do apply, all right, pal, rough teaser. We you
know we alluded to it. You had Detroit down to
a pick them, they lost, outright. You had the Chiefs
getting six and a half, they lost by seven. You

(20:28):
did have the Chargers down to a pick them, they won.
I gave you an a. It was kissing down.

Speaker 2 (20:33):
I don't think Detroit was covering at any point if
you won the game. Yeah, I don't think any point.

Speaker 1 (20:39):
But they were never covered. Absolutely.

Speaker 2 (20:41):
Yeah. So this this week we're going with another three
team a point teaser. First off, we're gonna tease Buffalo
down to basically a pick them. We're teasing Cleveland. Yes,
we're teasing Cleveland up to plus six, and then I'm
taking Philly to plus ten. Yeah, we we gotta turn

(21:03):
the ship. It's getting wrong. Four and five now five
and five, com.

Speaker 1 (21:07):
I've got good news for you. I'm going to give
this a C minus, which is when I give you
bad grades to hit them. Just the Cleveland part of this,
Cleveland was getting too Now they're laying to you're teasing
through the zero. You're not getting the seven. I hate
every piece of it. Uh, Buffalo, I like in Philly,

(21:30):
I like, I hate.

Speaker 2 (21:34):
Yeah, I understand that. I understand that. But they're gonna
go out there and take care of business. Come on, man,
that defense just got depleted a little bit. Deet you
to go in there and make it a game. Act
like you get paid to do this. But yeah, I
think this teas five and five coming up.

Speaker 1 (21:49):
I'm sure I think I would have instead, I would
have teased. If I were gonna tease through the zero,
I would have teased Jacksonville up to plus seven because
I don't think Davis Mills is blown anybody out.

Speaker 2 (22:12):
That's fair.

Speaker 1 (22:13):
Since I wouldn't teased through the zero, I think I
would have teased at Land now because they could get
blown out. I think I would have teased Pittsburgh up
to plus eleven. But listen your teaser.

Speaker 2 (22:25):
You're fine.

Speaker 1 (22:27):
The teaser has been average. Picks have been average. What
has not been average? Is this still undefeated? Touchdown Jeanie?

Speaker 2 (22:38):
Yes?

Speaker 1 (22:38):
I go ahead.

Speaker 2 (22:40):
So last week you picked Josh Allen anytime touchdown score
at plus hundred, and he got it. He cashed out.
Chiefs are on a buy this week. So is there
anybody else around the league that's catching your eye? Anytime
touchdown score?

Speaker 1 (22:56):
What is hold on? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (22:59):
I do have one roma doonsday?

Speaker 1 (23:02):
No, it's none in the none of the ones listed.
And I bet this is a plus two hundred? What
is manoon guy? Can you guys look that up? The
Bears running back? What is he minus? He's minus one
twenty five?

Speaker 2 (23:22):
Oh well, then we can't do that.

Speaker 1 (23:25):
I mean, I I thought I was. I guess I'm
not the.

Speaker 2 (23:30):
Only guy you found Landscape?

Speaker 1 (23:33):
Yeah, yeah, I was like, okay, that that makes it tough,
you know, let's just stay undefeated. We're going on on
guy minus one twenty five. I like it. What do
we have for what do we have for the offer?

Speaker 2 (23:47):
Uh? So you smartly declined the World Series offer last
last yeah, last Thursday. This week, we're going with it.
We're going with your picks and going in the same game, Barley,
Jonathan and Taylor and jon Robinson to both score a
touchdown at plus one thirty five.

Speaker 1 (24:05):
And we'll take it.

Speaker 2 (24:06):
You'll take that, though, Okay, Yeah, Like, why for two
guys to score a touchdown at plus one thirty five?
And I don't know if that was like great odds,
But it's because they're running back.

Speaker 1 (24:15):
It's not. Yeah, I mean it's it's not, but it's
just they've been two of the most reliable touchdown scores
of the year. But you're right, and I'm so proud
of you. You're correct.

Speaker 2 (24:25):
Yeah. I just thought you would in theory.

Speaker 1 (24:27):
Like better odds than that on these but those, the
anytime touchdown scorer bets are are tough to get sick
odds on. But yeah, I think they're both gonna score
a touchdown in Berlin. Lock it in, So I will
take it. Jonathan Taylor and Jon all Right, great job, Demons,
A huge thank you to seat Geek, to boost to
