Speaker 1 (00:04):
I'll do it. Do it. Divisional playoff weekend. Let's go.
Welcome to Over Promised, our bonus pod, Covino and Rich.
We're on Monday through Friday on Fox Sports Radio five
to seven on the East, two to four on the
West Covino and Rich FSR. You can stream it live
catch the podcast. But this is our bonus show man
(00:25):
bonus seeing our over Promise. I have what I'm thinking
is like the ultimate division around bet we can make. Plus,
there's a couple of safety bets, safety bets, safety bett.
Let's have safety bets and real bets. Are you gonna dance?
I'll get them so if I want to, if he
wants to. Plus, we're bringing back they might be ass
this ass. You'll find out there's a good ass and
(00:47):
a badass on today's show. But some people call us
Covino and Rich the broke Zach and Slater and I
take offense to that. And there's a new nick lookalike
in town, dappleganger, or as the kids are saying, chopp
ol ganger. You know what, as much as we make
fun of the weien Eeles or gen Z, they have
great slang. Chop Olganger. If you're chopped, that means you're ugly.
(01:11):
So if you're someone's choppel ganger, you're the ugly version
of Blank, right, so you gotta give him props for bustin'
lit fire buns. Riz it's giving Blank and now chopped
and chopp ole ganger. You don't want to be someone's choppelganger.
That means you're the ugly version. But there's a look alike.
(01:31):
It's brock Purty Rich And I'm wondering, since you love
brock Purty so much, would you want to get with
the female lookalike in Brock Party. I a young I
always think of that Saved by the Bell episode where
Zach is kicking it to Slater's sister, but then every
time he looks at her, it's face, So you know, I,
uh no, no can do. But brock Party, you know
(01:53):
he has a schoolboy face. Get this, A nil deal
was given to a tennis star. She's making almost a
million dollars and they're saying it's because she just looks
like brock Party. Brock Party look alike female version is
in the news and it makes us think of other
Dapple Gangers chopol Gangers. But would you. It also makes
(02:15):
me think of rock party with a wig. Would you
Richard Maker put a brock pretty jersey if it meant
the Niners winning the Super Bowl? I'm not answering your
dumb question, but you know, choppel ganger is a great word,
and in the world of sports. Would you believe that
my wife had never ever seen the comparison between Troy
(02:40):
Aikman and jay Z. I made this analogy to her
the other day. We're just talking about people looking alike,
and she there was some guy that looked like you,
and I was like, yeah, sot of how like jay
Z's the black Troy Aikman and Troy Aikman's the black
jay Z the white jay Z. Never saw it in
her life, different algorithms, different algorithms. Have we not all
seen this as sports fans? I mean as sports fans?
(03:01):
This is common knowledge? Yeah, absolutely, this is a classic
right here. But you skipped over the other college example.
If you remember that Brock Purty stories in a news story,
there was a college girl that got famous online because
she looked a lot like Trevor Lawrence, or she leaned
into that a lot. I think Trevor Lawrence looks like
a lot of girls you hooked up with drunken college,
but this girl got no nil money out of it.
(03:23):
But she got pretty famous for that, and as Trevor
lawrence Is star grew, she got popular as well. Nowadays,
playoff Trevor Lawrence. And by the way, I thought he
had a great season. He did a good job, young man.
Hold your head up, Trevor Lawrence. I think he looks
more like the love child of Edie Falco and Furio.
(03:45):
Oh they're not saying he looks like the college girl anymore.
Online if you follow, they say he looks like Edie
Falco got with Furio, remember that love interest and you
got Trevor Lawrence. You can't see it now? He really does, right,
he really does. Mom, Dad Lawrence, I mean we did
(04:07):
they ever get together? They almost did? They almost did.
Cony was furious about Furia. If you are Trevor Lawrence, yeah,
have you bumped into that girl that looks like him?
You got with her? Would it be like getting with yourself?
Like have you ever met a Latina girl that looked
enough like the female version of you? I don't think
that was ever your style? Like, oh my god, I said,
(04:28):
female me, I like Latina girls, just not ones like me.
I imagine he got with her and be like, I'm
banging myself. Yeah, no, I want girls hotter than me.
I mean respectfully, of course, speaking of classics, but you
do love yourself. Oh yeah, yeah, you're the most vain
person I know. I have a classic on deck. But
Rich always swears, Rich and his dad swears that there's
(04:49):
a female male lookalike combo in the world of sports
and football. My dad is so adamant about this, and
I'm really with him. He goes all every time I
look at u Ellen Degenerous, I just it looks like
Aaron rod And I agree with my dad. Oh yeah,
you don't look at Ellen and thinks she got Aaron
Rodgers face. I don't see it. Well, I think that's
(05:11):
a bad example. Spot. I think did if you looked
just like I looked I looked, and have the same eyes,
like the same eyes, So I kind of see it.
Speaker 2 (05:22):
But let me tell you we did. We're doing all
these these comparisons everyone. I searched it auto filled in
Google when I searched Aaron Rodgers, Ellen DeGeneres Zilo because
Rich and his dad made it up.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
Nice. I don't know. Maybe I'm thinking outside the box.
How about this classic, it's a classic. It's McCaulay Culkin,
Joe Burrow, and I guess if we're gonna do it
gen Z style, McCauley Culkin, even though he's super famous,
would be the chapel ganger Row.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
Quick, let's play a game. Is this Ellen or Aaron Rodgers?
Oh it's Aaron Rodgers clear? Oh sorry, no, it's Ellen. No, yeah,
oh my god, oh yeah, the same person.
Speaker 1 (06:07):
I'm telling you. I think they look like you can't
convince the otherwise. Well, you know what, that's the beauty
of this game, because people like I don't see it.
It happens all the time, happens me all the time,
every day. It looks like some ready Ellen or Aaron Rodgers.
Oh that's clearly the Aaron when he was on a Yeah,
because of the green right. Yeah, yeah, it's Ellen de generous,
(06:29):
no joke, Yes, check my prescription, you guys, that's Aaron Rodgers,
Ellen DeGeneres, you guys. Ever see you guys? Ever see
Nick Cage? Nick Cage's face on David Swimmer looks more
like David Swimmer. Yes, I have, And how is that possible.
(06:50):
Cage's face on David Swimmer looks more like David Swimmer
than David Shwimmer. That to me what I feel about
Ellen and Aaron Rodgers are all social media things. Have
you put great Summer or not? You put Ellen's face
under a Steelers helmet. I'm like Aaron Rodgers again, another
classic like a flastic pickle recently there it is. Yeah,
(07:14):
Nick Cage's face on trim it looks more like Shrummer.
I don't know how that's possible. Where wah boom, tough
fact ins and acting because he's the new John Madden.
You want to throw one more in for good measure, Yeah, yeah, yeah,
because look, it's a big week for Mike Tomlin. You
mentioned Burrow and McAuley culkin. Yeah, oh see, yeah, he
(07:35):
played it up for Halloween. He even leaned into it.
Props the McAuley Culkin there. Joe Burrow is probably like, yeah, right,
in his dreams, look at me, I'm a stud NFL
quarterback face. And because it was such a big week
for Tomlin, he stepped down. What's next for him coaching?
Probably not TV? Most likely we'll see everybody for years,
(07:58):
especially when he was younger, dude, that's omar apps. He
always got that for years, and I think that one's undeniable.
But the Steelers had on that same guy. You over
the last couple of days, I've been seeing Oh, here's
when Tomlin started in oh seven, and you're like, oh
my god, what a young man he was like in
his early thirties. So so dapple gangers, chopp ol gangers,
(08:21):
choppel gangers meaning you're chopped. You're the chopped, the weak version,
the busted version of that person. And we'll wrap it
with the best choppel ganger. Rich is the choppel ganger
of Jimmy Garoppolo. You're the right all right, So anyway
I'll be I'll be the chop Jimmy g a handsome,
(08:42):
handsome there, like a like a more than chopped chop.
Like that's put down beefsteak. Charlie, slow down, mister Belvidere.
This is just the buns version or whatever kids say,
like mega chop, speaking of buns, we're bringing it back.
It's segment that swept the nation called they might be
(09:04):
ass and as someone that's underperforming didn't deliver, we're not
saying it's definitely asked but might be ass you're on
the path to ask. And here's why this is a
good one, because I find there to be no better
broadcaster these days than Mike Tarka, and there's no bigger
(09:24):
legend in the world of sports for our generation than
Michael Jordan. Well, yes, put them together. This whole NBA
on NBC Jordan Turico season long, like cool sit down interview.
Apparently it's like bullshit, Insight to Excellence. They hype this
so hard. Hey, Michael Jordan's gonna be part of this,
(09:46):
You're like, all right, reason to tune in. After the
first episode and if you guys remember the first installment
of Insight the Excellence, it talked about how Jordan and
Jordan was like, he doesn't ball anymore. He stopped playing, yea,
and he was nervous to take a shot at a
charity event and everything. That was the big story. Oh,
Jordan's stop playing. Can't wait for more? And that's it.
(10:08):
It's a wrap, it's done. It was one long interview
broken into a few parts, and it's it's me done,
can't wait for more. There's almost nothing in fact they had.
They announced that what we've seen is all they have
in the cannon. So unless they re close, unless they
revisit it, they're saying, yeah, that's that's it. That's his
(10:29):
role on NBC. That was one interview that they chopped
up into it. So I mean that's chopped.
Speaker 2 (10:34):
This episode of over Promised is longer than Michael jordan
content were.
Speaker 1 (10:38):
Yes, so all that buzz about Michael Jordan's part of
the team now and insight nothing excellent about it. I'll
tell you what it's uh, you know what you could say.
It really is a masterclass in in like over hype,
smoking mirror, smoking mirrors. Let's make it clear Tarico's not asked,
Michael Jordan's not asked the hype up for this segment,
(10:58):
this segment inside Excellence ash you know, you know what
it reminds me of, like when you talk about like
when you think something's gonna be different. I remember a
year ago it was a Christmas Day or Thanksgiving Day game,
like Mariah Carrey is gonna sing all I Want for
Christmas is you at halftime and I'm like, ooh, live
that's risky because I know nowadays that's not her steeze anymore.
(11:20):
It was a pre done video that they just rolled
and I was.
Speaker 3 (11:23):
Like, what it's like, it's all about to me setting
up the expectation, and I think we all thought, oh
the NBA, they're gonna have Jordan every week, chiming in.
Speaker 1 (11:34):
Speaking of announcers, you know who had a pretty bad
week and might make this segment if it continues as
Tom Brady's announcing star rises. It feels like Tony Romo
is getting a lot of criticism. I think that's bold
because Tony Romo's get he's really good. He said he
was under the weather last week, so he's a little
off his game. But I think Romo's great. Romoco I
(11:57):
got his back. I support him. I'm just telling you
the buzz little critical krabbaby B. You're not lying about it.
You're better that you could do better than Tony Romo.
Show me well. Speaking of ass this amassing the news.
I'm just throwing it out there, guys. This when our
segment might be us forget that take that away spot.
This is just asking the news that people are freaking out.
(12:18):
I think it's worthy to bring up because Euphoria not
a show I watch same I've never seen it, but
the season three trailers out and Sydney Sweeney, who's not
known necessarily for her booty, is apparently shaking the cheeks
in the trailer and people are freaking out right inspire
you to watch changing this from this is this our segment.
(12:38):
This is ass. Yeah, this is just as Oh, this
is a take a look. This is the trailer from HBO.
There is I love the belief that it's all the buzz. Dude,
I'm telling you. People are losing their minds on social
media over that, and that concludes this is as Yeah,
it's a dual feature nowadays. Guys. Yeah, it's gonna be
(12:59):
weird on this is actual ass on the on the
YouTube insights, it's gonna show one part of this episode
just has a higher spike. That's weird. Now look, I'm
not hating on or the show, but man, people have
low expectations, like is it really worthy of all that buzz?
I mean, I'm not complaining. She has got a nice
(13:19):
spaining go to the beach, go to the pool. Nowadays,
whether you like it or not, everyone's butts out. So
it's just as you would say, just a butt Yeah,
well I have one, enjoy it and have one. Thank
you guys for participating. This leads us to You're welcome
the Divisional playoff picks. Rich's picks this week. Oh yeah, Now,
(13:43):
I'm not one for safety. I'm a risky guy, but
I do have I do have a two safety teaser bets, right,
nice a risk are Now I've always said that I'm
a blood and blood out type of guy. Nice a risk.
I have a safety bet for the AFC, a safety
for the NFC, and then I'm going all in on
what I think is the highest value cool pick I've
(14:04):
done this season. Okay, hear that highest value cool pick
I've done this season? Can I just make this point
before we get the picks? Though, we were so pumped
about wild Card weekend and last weekend, all the matchups,
and they really delivered what it really was great? I mean, yeah,
four games that came down to the final drive and
then two games that stunk. But I honestly believe that
(14:25):
Divisional playoff weekend the games this weekend are just as exciting,
if not more exciting. I think the matchups are so good.
As a fight fan, I really look for those matchups
to see what's intriguing all of these games? Pop? I
love so pumped for every one of these games. I
love Wildcard weekend because you got Saturday three on Sunday
than Monday night. But a true football fan, the sentiment
(14:48):
will always be divisional rounds as the best because you
weed out maybe one or two of those teams that
don't belong no offense, like Caroline or the Steelers, Like
there's teams that might not belong in that next tier.
Now you're down to eight teams for in the NFC.
For the AFC. Now, don't get me right. Great championship
weekends interesting because that's showing you who's going to the
(15:08):
super Bowl. But this is a weekend where it's like,
all right, for the best, for the best, let's see it.
And this is my safety bet in the AFC. In
the AFC, you got the Buffalo Bills as an underdog.
Now they're a one and a half point underdog. In Denver,
you make them a seven and a half point underdog,
(15:28):
meaning Josh Allen needs to keep this game within a touchdown.
I love it, as did Kiddo say, or as I
said in the nineties. Bet bet now, bet bet bet.
I think you know my thoughts on the Houston Texans.
They got their stinkeroo out of the way. They they
stunk last week, but still just based on defense alone,
(15:49):
beat up on a lesser Pittsburgh Steelers team. I think
they're gonna write this ship and clean it up. Yeah,
there's no way. CJ Strown makes those terrible passes again,
his fumbles and miss tears. So I like them getting
nine in Foxborough now, Drake May this team is, you know,
on a mission. This team looks great, well coached or
(16:11):
coaches headbutting people getting bloody lips. I like them getting
nine now in the NFC, that's just a safety bet.
I just feel like the underdog's getting a ton of points.
Like to me, Caleb Williams, dude at home, big time
playmaker at home. He seems to be the guy. He's
proven to be the guy that steps up on a
(16:32):
big stage. Now. Don't get me wrong, the Rams are
high octane offense and the Bears defense is the one
thing people say is a little suspect. But getting ten
and a half, meaning as a ten and a half
point underdog at home, even if they lost by ten,
you win this bet. And same with the Niners in Seattle.
Fred Warner possibly coming back. We're gonna find out more
today and tomorrow. Corner is gonna play plus thirteen gonna pay.
(16:55):
I mentioned the Niners as thirteen point underdogs in Seattle.
I love that right now, here's the bet I said
I have like the bet bet. I don't think this
is crazy. I like all four underdogs to just win. Wow.
Got that dog in you? No, got that dog in you?
(17:17):
Is why I am calling it that. Yeah, you got
that dog in you. These are four underdogs. I've never
felt confident in all four underdogs the way I feel
about this Saturday, let's play it out, yep. Saturday afternoon,
you get your little breakfast brito, your little brunch, your
little coffee. You sit down and you watch Josh Allen
in Denver show you why this is his chance, his
(17:42):
window he could take over a game. I think he
will take over the game. So he takes over bon Nicks.
Ain't ready. There's your bills. The forty nine Ers and
Kyle Shanahan have had two weeks to game plan. They're
one disastrous game they've had recently against Seattle. They come
out with a different game plan. Fred Warner emotionally drives
(18:04):
this team. The forty nine Ers upset Seattle because their
minus kittle. So if they're able to pull that off, wow,
then you go to Sunday. I think the Houston Texans
as an underdog is wild to begin with because they've
won ten games in a row and they're hot the defense.
(18:25):
In my mind, every time I see a guy run
the ball, I feel like the Houston Texans hit him
behind the line of scrimmage. And just that last one spot.
The Bears are three and a half point underdogs at home.
What if Matthew Stafford in chili cold Chicago conditions isn't
up for it? In Kateleb Williams, this is just a
(18:46):
team of destiny with Ben Johnson. So I think the
underdogs spot Shaw all the bets and that last one.
It's all the underdogs. And what I love about it
one hundred bucks pays out forty seven hundred dollars. Wow,
that's not too bad. But but you but you can't
see all four of those games going that way? Remember
promo code c our show. I mean, can you tell
(19:08):
me that you is that? It's not like I'm pulling
some bullshit team to win. No, that's that's really great.
I love it. In fact, my Homer bet is the
only one that is maybe a little bit of a reach.
I think Buffalo will win. I think it's a little
bit of a reach. But the forty nine ers are
playing like a team of destiny for sure. But you
(19:29):
think it's a stretch to say that Houston's defense beats
the Patriots. You think it's a stretch that Caleb Williams
at Soldier Field. You saw that crowd last week. You
think it's crazy. I think the Rams on the Road
is the bad bet. I love it. I just I
love that bet. So lock those in. Screenshot it, Like
Spot said, two safe bets now, because you can make
(19:51):
those safety bets and still you can make all three
of those bets and come out of winner this weekend.
That's what we wish you the best. Screenshot it, good luck,
enjoy the games, Divisional playoffs, these are some great matchups.
Have a good one. Joy and then until next time. Yo,
I'm reading there you baby, don't be chopped choppel gangers.
(20:15):
We'll see you in me over promised. Let let's go
I'll do it. Do it. Divisional playoff weekend. Let's go.

than David Shwimmer. That to me what I feel about
Ellen and Aaron Rodgers are all social media things. Have
you put great Summer or not? You put Ellen's face
under a Steelers helmet. I'm like Aaron Rodgers again, another
classic like a flastic pickle recently there it is. Yeah,
(07:14):
Nick Cage's face on trim it looks more like Shrummer.
I don't know how that's possible. Where wah boom, tough
fact ins and acting because he's the new John Madden.
You want to throw one more in for good measure, Yeah, yeah, yeah,
because look, it's a big week for Mike Tomlin. You
mentioned Burrow and McAuley culkin. Yeah, oh see, yeah, he
(07:35):
played it up for Halloween. He even leaned into it.
Props the McAuley Culkin there. Joe Burrow is probably like, yeah, right,
in his dreams, look at me, I'm a stud NFL
quarterback face. And because it was such a big week
for Tomlin, he stepped down. What's next for him coaching?
Probably not TV? Most likely we'll see everybody for years,
(07:58):
especially when he was younger, dude, that's omar apps. He
always got that for years, and I think that one's undeniable.
But the Steelers had on that same guy. You over
the last couple of days, I've been seeing Oh, here's
when Tomlin started in oh seven, and you're like, oh
my god, what a young man he was like in
his early thirties. So so dapple gangers, chopp ol gangers,
(08:21):
choppel gangers meaning you're chopped. You're the chopped, the weak version,
the busted version of that person. And we'll wrap it
with the best choppel ganger. Rich is the choppel ganger
of Jimmy Garoppolo. You're the right all right, So anyway
I'll be I'll be the chop Jimmy g a handsome,
(08:42):
handsome there, like a like a more than chopped chop.
Like that's put down beefsteak. Charlie, slow down, mister Belvidere.
This is just the buns version or whatever kids say,
like mega chop, speaking of buns, we're bringing it back.
It's segment that swept the nation called they might be
(09:04):
ass and as someone that's underperforming didn't deliver, we're not
saying it's definitely asked but might be ass you're on
the path to ask. And here's why this is a
good one, because I find there to be no better
broadcaster these days than Mike Tarka, and there's no bigger
(09:24):
legend in the world of sports for our generation than
Michael Jordan. Well, yes, put them together. This whole NBA
on NBC Jordan Turico season long, like cool sit down interview.
Apparently it's like bullshit, Insight to Excellence. They hype this
so hard. Hey, Michael Jordan's gonna be part of this,
(09:46):
You're like, all right, reason to tune in. After the
first episode and if you guys remember the first installment
of Insight the Excellence, it talked about how Jordan and
Jordan was like, he doesn't ball anymore. He stopped playing, yea,
and he was nervous to take a shot at a
charity event and everything. That was the big story. Oh,
Jordan's stop playing. Can't wait for more? And that's it.
(10:08):
It's a wrap, it's done. It was one long interview
broken into a few parts, and it's it's me done,
can't wait for more. There's almost nothing in fact they had.
They announced that what we've seen is all they have
in the cannon. So unless they re close, unless they
revisit it, they're saying, yeah, that's that's it. That's his
(10:29):
role on NBC. That was one interview that they chopped
up into it. So I mean that's chopped.
Speaker 2 (10:34):
This episode of over Promised is longer than Michael jordan
content were.
Speaker 1 (10:38):
Yes, so all that buzz about Michael Jordan's part of
the team now and insight nothing excellent about it. I'll
tell you what it's uh, you know what you could say.
It really is a masterclass in in like over hype,
smoking mirror, smoking mirrors. Let's make it clear Tarico's not asked,
Michael Jordan's not asked the hype up for this segment,
(10:58):
this segment inside Excellence ash you know, you know what
it reminds me of, like when you talk about like
when you think something's gonna be different. I remember a
year ago it was a Christmas Day or Thanksgiving Day game,
like Mariah Carrey is gonna sing all I Want for
Christmas is you at halftime and I'm like, ooh, live
that's risky because I know nowadays that's not her steeze anymore.
(11:20):
It was a pre done video that they just rolled
and I was.
Speaker 3 (11:23):
Like, what it's like, it's all about to me setting
up the expectation, and I think we all thought, oh
the NBA, they're gonna have Jordan every week, chiming in.
Speaker 1 (11:34):
Speaking of announcers, you know who had a pretty bad
week and might make this segment if it continues as
Tom Brady's announcing star rises. It feels like Tony Romo
is getting a lot of criticism. I think that's bold
because Tony Romo's get he's really good. He said he
was under the weather last week, so he's a little
off his game. But I think Romo's great. Romoco I
(11:57):
got his back. I support him. I'm just telling you
the buzz little critical krabbaby B. You're not lying about it.
You're better that you could do better than Tony Romo.
Show me well. Speaking of ass this amassing the news.
I'm just throwing it out there, guys. This when our
segment might be us forget that take that away spot.
This is just asking the news that people are freaking out.
(12:18):
I think it's worthy to bring up because Euphoria not
a show I watch same I've never seen it, but
the season three trailers out and Sydney Sweeney, who's not
known necessarily for her booty, is apparently shaking the cheeks
in the trailer and people are freaking out right inspire
you to watch changing this from this is this our segment.
(12:38):
This is ass. Yeah, this is just as Oh, this
is a take a look. This is the trailer from HBO.
There is I love the belief that it's all the buzz. Dude,
I'm telling you. People are losing their minds on social
media over that, and that concludes this is as Yeah,
it's a dual feature nowadays. Guys. Yeah, it's gonna be
(12:59):
weird on this is actual ass on the on the
YouTube insights, it's gonna show one part of this episode
just has a higher spike. That's weird. Now look, I'm
not hating on or the show, but man, people have
low expectations, like is it really worthy of all that buzz?
I mean, I'm not complaining. She has got a nice
(13:19):
spaining go to the beach, go to the pool. Nowadays,
whether you like it or not, everyone's butts out. So
it's just as you would say, just a butt Yeah,
well I have one, enjoy it and have one. Thank
you guys for participating. This leads us to You're welcome
the Divisional playoff picks. Rich's picks this week. Oh yeah, Now,
(13:43):
I'm not one for safety. I'm a risky guy, but
I do have I do have a two safety teaser bets, right,
nice a risk are Now I've always said that I'm
a blood and blood out type of guy. Nice a risk.
I have a safety bet for the AFC, a safety
for the NFC, and then I'm going all in on
what I think is the highest value cool pick I've
(14:04):
done this season. Okay, hear that highest value cool pick
I've done this season? Can I just make this point
before we get the picks? Though, we were so pumped
about wild Card weekend and last weekend, all the matchups,
and they really delivered what it really was great? I mean, yeah,
four games that came down to the final drive and
then two games that stunk. But I honestly believe that
(14:25):
Divisional playoff weekend the games this weekend are just as exciting,
if not more exciting. I think the matchups are so good.
As a fight fan, I really look for those matchups
to see what's intriguing all of these games? Pop? I
love so pumped for every one of these games. I
love Wildcard weekend because you got Saturday three on Sunday
than Monday night. But a true football fan, the sentiment
(14:48):
will always be divisional rounds as the best because you
weed out maybe one or two of those teams that
don't belong no offense, like Caroline or the Steelers, Like
there's teams that might not belong in that next tier.
Now you're down to eight teams for in the NFC.
For the AFC. Now, don't get me right. Great championship
weekends interesting because that's showing you who's going to the
(15:08):
super Bowl. But this is a weekend where it's like,
all right, for the best, for the best, let's see it.
And this is my safety bet in the AFC. In
the AFC, you got the Buffalo Bills as an underdog.
Now they're a one and a half point underdog. In Denver,
you make them a seven and a half point underdog,
(15:28):
meaning Josh Allen needs to keep this game within a touchdown.
I love it, as did Kiddo say, or as I
said in the nineties. Bet bet now, bet bet bet.
I think you know my thoughts on the Houston Texans.
They got their stinkeroo out of the way. They they
stunk last week, but still just based on defense alone,
(15:49):
beat up on a lesser Pittsburgh Steelers team. I think
they're gonna write this ship and clean it up. Yeah,
there's no way. CJ Strown makes those terrible passes again,
his fumbles and miss tears. So I like them getting
nine in Foxborough now, Drake May this team is, you know,
on a mission. This team looks great, well coached or
(16:11):
coaches headbutting people getting bloody lips. I like them getting
nine now in the NFC, that's just a safety bet.
I just feel like the underdog's getting a ton of points.
Like to me, Caleb Williams, dude at home, big time
playmaker at home. He seems to be the guy. He's
proven to be the guy that steps up on a
(16:32):
big stage. Now. Don't get me wrong, the Rams are
high octane offense and the Bears defense is the one
thing people say is a little suspect. But getting ten
and a half, meaning as a ten and a half
point underdog at home, even if they lost by ten,
you win this bet. And same with the Niners in Seattle.
Fred Warner possibly coming back. We're gonna find out more
today and tomorrow. Corner is gonna play plus thirteen gonna pay.
(16:55):
I mentioned the Niners as thirteen point underdogs in Seattle.
I love that right now, here's the bet I said
I have like the bet bet. I don't think this
is crazy. I like all four underdogs to just win. Wow.
Got that dog in you? No, got that dog in you?
(17:17):
Is why I am calling it that. Yeah, you got
that dog in you. These are four underdogs. I've never
felt confident in all four underdogs the way I feel
about this Saturday, let's play it out, yep. Saturday afternoon,
you get your little breakfast brito, your little brunch, your
little coffee. You sit down and you watch Josh Allen
in Denver show you why this is his chance, his
(17:42):
window he could take over a game. I think he
will take over the game. So he takes over bon Nicks.
Ain't ready. There's your bills. The forty nine Ers and
Kyle Shanahan have had two weeks to game plan. They're
one disastrous game they've had recently against Seattle. They come
out with a different game plan. Fred Warner emotionally drives
(18:04):
this team. The forty nine Ers upset Seattle because their
minus kittle. So if they're able to pull that off, wow,
then you go to Sunday. I think the Houston Texans
as an underdog is wild to begin with because they've
won ten games in a row and they're hot the defense.
(18:25):
In my mind, every time I see a guy run
the ball, I feel like the Houston Texans hit him
behind the line of scrimmage. And just that last one spot.
The Bears are three and a half point underdogs at home.
What if Matthew Stafford in chili cold Chicago conditions isn't
up for it? In Kateleb Williams, this is just a
(18:46):
team of destiny with Ben Johnson. So I think the
underdogs spot Shaw all the bets and that last one.
It's all the underdogs. And what I love about it
one hundred bucks pays out forty seven hundred dollars. Wow,
that's not too bad. But but you but you can't
see all four of those games going that way? Remember
promo code c our show. I mean, can you tell
(19:08):
me that you is that? It's not like I'm pulling
some bullshit team to win. No, that's that's really great.
I love it. In fact, my Homer bet is the
only one that is maybe a little bit of a reach.
I think Buffalo will win. I think it's a little
bit of a reach. But the forty nine ers are
playing like a team of destiny for sure. But you
(19:29):
think it's a stretch to say that Houston's defense beats
the Patriots. You think it's a stretch that Caleb Williams
at Soldier Field. You saw that crowd last week. You
think it's crazy. I think the Rams on the Road
is the bad bet. I love it. I just I
love that bet. So lock those in. Screenshot it, Like
Spot said, two safe bets now, because you can make
(19:51):
those safety bets and still you can make all three
of those bets and come out of winner this weekend.
That's what we wish you the best. Screenshot it, good luck,
enjoy the games, Divisional playoffs, these are some great matchups.
Have a good one. Joy and then until next time. Yo,
I'm reading there you baby, don't be chopped choppel gangers.
(20:15):
We'll see you in me over promised. Let let's go
