Speaker 5 (02:19):
You know what's interesting when we were crowing up, I
don't know when your birthday against at the end of
the it's the end of year or beginning of the
yeh January.
Speaker 2 (02:25):
So like you were at that cutoff.
Speaker 5 (02:28):
So you were the oldest in your year, right, yeah, yeah, right,
because you were that cutof. So the cutoff now, at
least in California, so early now that they forced kids
to do a thing called TK. We didn't have t K.
Robbie was just you're gonna be the young one or
you're gonna be the old one in preschool kindergarten. Now
they have this whole through TK system, Transitional Kindergarten. And
(02:49):
so my older two daughters are in October and November,
so they're forced to go to that. So what happens
is all the kids in their class, their birthdays are
within like the same five days. So it's birthday, birthday, birthday, birthday, birthday, birthday, birthday.
Speaker 2 (03:03):
And I'm like what that?
Speaker 5 (03:04):
And Rob, you know, back in the day when you
were in New York, you went Timmy, Derek, Bobby, maybe Lisa.
That was your birthday party, a couple other people. That's
why now these kids.
Speaker 2 (03:16):
You gotta invite the whole class.
Speaker 1 (03:18):
We don't invite the whole class is gonna be an issue, right, So, man, it.
Speaker 5 (03:22):
Ain't like it was in the eighties and the nineties,
Like you picked your I got Bob, Chris Vick.
Speaker 4 (03:26):
Got a few people, right and that's it.
Speaker 1 (03:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (03:28):
No, you gotta bring everybody, and she's got to bring everybody,
so you have to go to every party.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
It's crazy. It's a life of its own, dude, and
I can't take it them.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
Oh yeah, I'm hoping to have a great, uh relaxing weekend,
not going anywhere on no trips, nothing happening, just relax
for change. And you know, the World Series is all over,
fun neck and ex hell with MLB bro and all
the stuff we do. So it's down season on the
podcast for me, Inside the Parker is monthly now now
that the season is over, you know what I mean.
Speaker 5 (03:56):
So I get some chill top. You need to sit
your butt down. You've been trying all over the place. Yeah,
so it's definitely there.
Speaker 1 (04:02):
But all right, let's talk about the Detroit Lions of
a big game in Green Bay.
Speaker 3 (04:06):
I don't like.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
I don't like it's own already can tell you. I
don't like it.
Speaker 1 (04:09):
I'm just because you're all in and the best team
in the league, Jared Golf is the MVP and all
this stuff.
Speaker 4 (04:17):
I just don't see it. But I want to hear
your case.
Speaker 2 (04:19):
I don't know, well, how are you not right now?
Speaker 4 (04:21):
First, because they have one good win, but we'll get
to that.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
Go ahead.
Speaker 4 (04:24):
I want to hear it.
Speaker 5 (04:25):
Is It is rare that a team again, you know,
you come back from a great season last season, but
a horrible loss and you're able to bounce back and
continue that and if not maybe even be better. Right now,
they're sitting at six and one. They look spectacular. They're
thrashing everybody. They're winning by plus one hundred points in
the point differential, and Jared Golf is going crazy right
(04:49):
now in the last five games. When you're talking about
quarterback rating, when you're talking about passing percentage over in
eighty percent, their scoring offense is ridiculous. They got do
you want to run the ball, you want to pass
the ball, whatever you want. And again they're playing with
a chip on the shoulder as if to say, we
messed this thing up last year. We had a chance
(05:09):
to be in the Super Bowl for the first time
since it wasn't even called the Super Bowl. It was
a guppy, No, it was beyond who was first. It
was before like Adam and Eve, and all of a
sudden we blew that.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
So they come back with Avengeance.
Speaker 5 (05:21):
I love what Dan Campbell's doing, got those guys fired up.
And of course offensive coordinator Ben Johnson, who I pray
they never lose, because I mean he once he leaves,
I'm worried.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
But I just love what they're doing.
Speaker 5 (05:32):
And Jared Goff is definitely the leading candidate, if not
one or two for the MVP right now, but what
he has his team looking like. And you got other
court coaches you are even acknowledging as of right now.
Speaker 4 (05:45):
Yes, how many yards did he have last week?
Speaker 2 (05:50):
I don't know, three four touchdowns? All I know?
Speaker 4 (05:52):
How many yards?
Speaker 2 (05:53):
Do you know? A ninety or something?
Speaker 4 (05:56):
One hundred and eighty five? Okay?
Speaker 5 (05:58):
Yeah, yeah, how many touchdowns did he has? I'm just
saying eighty five yards.
Speaker 1 (06:03):
Let's not no, No, it's got to be at a context,
that's all it is.
Speaker 2 (06:08):
A context. Are you looking at this man's stats? Yeah?
Speaker 5 (06:10):
I am seventeen hundred yards thirteen touchdowns, four interceptions. That's
in one hundred and fifteen quarterback raty and he caught
one two without the sticky gloves. He caught a touchdown pass.
He's had a perfect game. He had another almost perfect game.
And I'm not saying hell, at the end of the season,
win MVP, but right now he's right there with another
(06:31):
guy or two. And I just love the way they
got this team the Rowland right now, and I just
think they're the best team, which is why it's gonna
be a big game against the Green May Backpackers, who
look great as well, to continue to see who leads
the division and also really who leads the end of
the entire conference of the NFC.
Speaker 2 (06:46):
I don't see how you feel differently.
Speaker 1 (06:49):
Well, because I always want to take it in context too,
because the team could have more losses but play better
teams and better competitions and better wins.
Speaker 4 (06:58):
So so, and then you can.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
Look at the Lions and I'm not taking anything away
from I'm not cause you got to play was on
the schedule, but you do have to take it in
context and say, the best one they had was Minnesota,
and then all the other people, all the other teams
were basically chopped liver. And when you look at the
record of the teams that they've beaten, right, I'm talking
(07:21):
about the combined record, they're under five hundred, they're twenty
and twenty four. So they've beaten a lot of teams
that aren't good. Like when they re beat the Cowboys,
you say, oh wow, they went to Dallas. Everybody beats
the Cowboys, so that win doesn't feel nearly and they
beat the breaks off of them, but it doesn't feel
(07:42):
nearly as good as if these was the Cowboy teams
that had a sixteen game winning streak at home or
the Cowboys team that had won thirteen games the last
three years.
Speaker 4 (07:53):
You know what I mean.
Speaker 5 (07:54):
Or let me counter that, let me counter that you're
right that they're not. I mean, the NFL is kind
of weird right now. They're not easily great teams. Obviously,
Kansas City and I think they do play each other
and at some point, if I'm not mistaken, could be
wrong on that. But I'm looking at things like the Cowboys.
They didn't the Cowboys beat the Steelers. Now, no, that
was justin fields. But I mean they've beaten three teams
(08:15):
they beat the breaks off of them.
Speaker 2 (08:16):
Right, Okay, cool.
Speaker 5 (08:18):
Then you go to the Seahawks, you know they've had
some ups and downs with the season, they beat the
breaks off of them. Then you go to the Titans,
who they're supposed to be, they beat the breaks off
of them. So my thing is they're not letting teams.
They're not having like the Ravens, who I still think,
come on, now, you know how I feel about the Ravens.
They're the team that you'd fear you're going to play
because the way they play. But the Ravens have had
some games where you're like, why did you lose to
(08:38):
the Raiders? Why did you lose to the Browns James
Winston's first start? Why did you let the Cowboys come
all the way back and make this thing a very
very well score game.
Speaker 2 (08:46):
So I when you look at.
Speaker 1 (08:48):
Some of the wins that they had, I think that's
what's impressive by it.
Speaker 5 (08:51):
So they got some great which is why the Ravens,
you know, how to feel, they're still right up there
with me. They're not as if all of a sudden
they dropped below ten. I'm not Michael Parsons out here
in the streets, but my point is they're doing what
they're supposed to do and some and I respect that
because how many times we.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
Go, man, how do this team lose to that team?
Speaker 5 (09:06):
Or how they only beat him by a field goal,
or man, I was way too close for my comfort.
They're going in on a mission and they're stomping on
people and they're putting their foot on their throat, and
I appreciate that because that shows me something that they
learned from last year of playing around and keeping teams
in and playing loose and let's try this, and let
they are saying no, no, no, we have learned. And
(09:27):
again they're gonna have a hiccup. They got, you know,
several more games. They're gonna have a game where like
I was a clunker or they barely win. But as
of right now, they're absolutely taking care of business. And
I think Jared Goff should be getting a little bit
more love the way he's controlling the best offense in
the NFL right now.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
But when you look at some of the numbers, and
like I said, the three touchdowns, great eighty five yards
or whatever it was, it's just not that impressive. And
when you looked at what the Ravens did to like
the Bills. Like right, the Bills are a really good team,
and some of the other wins that they've had, and
I get it, they they've lost a couple games as well.
The defense let Jameis Winston march down and beat them,
(10:05):
and their foot was on the line against the Chiefs,
that could have been a huge win of Week one.
They played them really well, came I made a huge
comeback in Kansas City, and then the debacle against that
just was a debacle against the Raiders because the Raiders
aren't a good team. I just I look at the
degree of difficulty. I look at a lot of other things.
And that's why even when I talked about the Chiefs,
(10:30):
this is not new for me because I said this
before that even when the Steelers were nine and oh
or ten and oh wherever they were that year, I
did not feel like they were great. Do you know
what I mean? I really didn't. They wanted to say
on the line. So I come to you, I say, Rod,
what don't you like about us? That would be my thing.
It's not that I don't like anything about them, because
(10:51):
I said I even picked them to beat the Vikings,
didn't I? I did so It's not like I don't
think that they're good or I picked against them every week,
picked him to beat the Vikings in Minnesota because I
didn't think Minnesota was that great and I thought the
Lions are better than the Vikings despite the Vikings at
that point being undefeated.
Speaker 4 (11:12):
You see what I'm saying.
Speaker 5 (11:13):
I'm just going to hear you, but I'm saying I
don't think there's a better team in the entire conference them.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
Yeah, I just think I still like the Ravens. If
I was to say who's the best team in the
NFL despite their how many losses they have now three?
Despite their three losses, I still I would take the
Ravens any day over them.
Speaker 4 (11:32):
I really the.
Speaker 5 (11:33):
Only thing that would worry I would take the Lions
because of how they're playing right now. But historically, when
you look at Lamar Jackson versus NFC, he's got to
get to a Super Bowl, rob so he can put
this stat to test.
Speaker 2 (11:43):
I think he's like twenty two or twenty three and one.
Speaker 4 (11:46):
Yeah, it's incredible.
Speaker 5 (11:47):
That is one of the greatest stats I've ever heard
in my life that like no one really talks about.
Speaker 2 (11:52):
Like, if he gets to a Super Bowl.
Speaker 5 (11:56):
The statistics say he's gonna beat that NFC team. He's
just got to get by Patrick Mahomes so he can
finally do that. But I would love to see the
Ravens and Lions. That would be an amazing Super Bowl. Currently,
I haven't picked the Lions in Kansas City. That's where
I picked at the beginning of the season, and obviously that
still looks great.
Speaker 2 (12:13):
Between the two teams.
Speaker 5 (12:14):
You got thirteen wins and one loss between those two teams.
So I just love what I've seeing from them right now. Man,
they're on a mission. They're destroying people again, one hundred
points plus differential right now, five game winning streak, and
I think they're just on a mission to right there
wrong from last season. And I love to see that
because oftentimes teams come in and then you're like, well,
what happened from last year? Why aren't they playing as well?
(12:35):
Why aren't they keeping up with the expectations. They're doing
that and some and I think they're only going to
get stronger as they continue to go through and play
some tougher teams that even if they take a loss,
you know it's good.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
They have played a better team.
Speaker 5 (12:46):
And this week is a great example of that, going
up against the Green Bay Packers, who are really good teams.
Speaker 4 (12:51):
Jordan Love playing and is Jacobs as well?
Speaker 2 (12:54):
Yeah, well I think Love is playing.
Speaker 5 (12:55):
We'll have to wait and seeven Jacobs might both be out.
Speaker 2 (12:59):
Yeah that's a big that.
Speaker 4 (13:00):
And then again, that would be if those two guys
are on playing.
Speaker 1 (13:02):
It's not that if the Lions can't go up there
and win and beat them, but you would have to
look at that game and go, yeah.
Speaker 2 (13:08):
Yeah, I would.
Speaker 5 (13:08):
I want him to play, so you go right see
that kind of feel out how both teams are and
so I hope he's playing, so that you're playing a
team at their at least full strength, or at least
as close to that as possible.
Speaker 2 (13:20):
But I like what I'm seeing.
Speaker 5 (13:21):
I don't think there's a better team right now in football,
and the way they just beat you right off the bat.
They just come in, take your heart and then they
stump on it. And I love seeing two at any sport.
I just love seeing teams do that, not play around
with their food and keep people in the game and
you know, have mental farts and lose the you know,
kind of like the Yankees or how the Ravens have
done a couple of times. You're just kind of your
(13:41):
blank out and you know, man, pound keep going, keep going,
and uh they've been able to do that. I love
what I'm seeing from them all right.

Speaker 2 (15:25):
The last part, that last part was a little bit
a little bit much.
Speaker 4 (15:28):
I can you know that?
Speaker 5 (15:31):
No, I think it's still lamars to be to be

Speaker 2 (15:35):

Speaker 1 (15:36):
All right, eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox, Scott
in Phoenix, you're on the odd couple, Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 4 (15:43):
What's up, Scott?
Speaker 3 (15:45):
I much, sir, have a great evening radio, top Thank you.
Speaker 7 (15:50):
Best team in the NFC, absolutely best team in the league.
Definitely not Why not not? Uh, we're talking Jared MVP.
Speaker 3 (16:00):
Come on now, you man roster right, we're talking Brock
Purty or what? Come on man?
Speaker 2 (16:06):
Wait, what do you mean?
Speaker 7 (16:07):
It's the real MVP.
Speaker 3 (16:09):
Everybody knows that Josh Allen's been covering his home depot
employees on a roster. Come on now.
Speaker 7 (16:15):
But the Lions will go to the super Bowl for sure.
Speaker 2 (16:18):
All right?
Speaker 5 (16:18):
That was I appreciate the caught that was all over
the play. They're gonna get to the super Bowl, but
they got the MVP. But they're not the best team,
but they in the super Bowl. Parker makes sense of that.
For me, I can't because he was all over the place.
Speaker 2 (16:30):
It's kind of work. But they're not with this.
Speaker 5 (16:31):
But then but then they're going to the super Bowl.
But then Jared got but then Brock party. You know,
he feeling good on a Friday, that's all. He's still
got some of that Halloween candy. Might put a little
brandy in his He's feeling good.
Speaker 2 (16:40):
That's all.
Speaker 1 (16:41):
That is eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox. I mean,
we still got what the Lions as always this despite
last year, despite getting to the NFC Championship game and
having a big lead in the first half and wind
up losing it and not going there is always going
to be I don't care how well they played, It's
going to be a degree of can they finish the job?
(17:03):
Is there coach gonna make a mistake? Is Jared Golf
gonna throw a bad interception at some point? You know,
like like is that fair or not? That there's still
that desp I don't care how well they play. Can
they finish the job?
Speaker 5 (17:17):
Can they The compliment to them is, for the first
time probably ever, finish the job means, you know, getting
back to a super Bowl and getting to us soon,
not back to a super Bowl, getting to the super Bowl,
getting to a super Bowl and obviously once you get there,
you want to win it. That ain't never been the
case for the lions of my entire life. Is getting
to a super Bowl. Like the fact that their expectations
(17:37):
is that is a compliment to Dan Campbell and what
he's created as far as I can.
Speaker 4 (17:42):
But I'm still saying that there's still yeah, because that.
Speaker 2 (17:46):
Write any fifty years of history.
Speaker 5 (17:47):
I'm with you, like they're trying to get you know,
and it's like It's like the Cubs for eighty five
ninety years. You know, they're like, oh, something's gonna go wrong,
and man, this isn't gonna work even if we're in
a big playoff game.
Speaker 2 (17:59):
See bart, here we go.
Speaker 5 (18:01):
So certain teams, when you have a history of stink,
it's hard to get that stink off.
Speaker 2 (18:05):
You hate, you need it.
Speaker 1 (18:06):
More than you get it, right, I agree, And until
it happens, then people cannot use that. It was just
like when the Cubs finally won, Like you just can't
use that argument anymore.
Speaker 4 (18:16):
They've won, they got it done.
Speaker 1 (18:18):
It's all over and nobody talks about that one hundred
and eight years or whatever it.
Speaker 5 (18:23):
Was, right, Yeah, and that's yeah, I agreed, And that's
why that's what the Lions are.
Speaker 2 (18:27):
Yeah, And I think the reason why I what I
like from them.
Speaker 5 (18:30):
And again this is I know obviously being from the
from there, from the area, but I'm just saying I
like that they took last year and they've gotten better.
Whereas you know, again, how many teams, ah, we'll be back,
don't worry about it, and then they falter, they don't
look good or they don't look great, and they don't
have that same tenacity, or maybe they got fat off
the fact that they've had a last couple of good
seasons and they lose that thing, and I like seeing
(18:52):
that they've come back and are equally as good and
if not better. That's hard to do in any walk
of life, and I think I'm impressed by that. Again,
how many teams think that, like the Bucks, we'll be
all right, Giannis is gonna be healthy and Dame Lily
And it's like, dude, you guys look bad, you know
what I mean, Just because you think all were gonna
come back and play harder and we'll be that isn't
always the case. So I like the fact that they've
(19:14):
been able to do that. I thought that's been pretty cool.
Speaker 1 (19:15):
How about the Hutcherson loss, I mean, will that affect them?
You don't think that's gonna have any effect? I mean
long term it hasn't so far. But but losing a
player of that ill Can caliber.
Speaker 5 (19:27):
That was a big loss. You know, he's been one TJ.
Watt him, maybe one other guy as far as non
quarterbacks to me make the most difference, he was right
up in that category for me.
Speaker 2 (19:37):
So that's a massive loss.
Speaker 5 (19:38):
I think they've been able to circumvent that right now
by getting a lot of pressure from other guys, and
the linebackers have stepped up, some of the other defensive
front has stepped up, and you know what, one of
the best defensive game plans is rob their offense. Sometimes
you got, all right, well, we're gonna just have to
outscore some teams. And obviously they've been demolishing teams lately,
(19:59):
but I know they're gonna, like, for sayce this weekend,
if Jordan Love is healthy, this is gonna be one
of those We're not gonna contain them that much. They're
putting up minimum twenty four points, you know what I mean?
Twenty So we're gonna have to make sure we outscore
them and.
Speaker 1 (20:11):
Get off if they lose to the Packers. Right, what's
the Packers record? They only like get six and two
or some five and two, six and two, only one
game if they lose to the Packers six and two,
even though the Lions are the favorite going up to
Green Bay.
Speaker 4 (20:25):
Would that bother you at all?
Speaker 5 (20:26):
Or just that's really that's a really good team right there, Dude,
they're on a four game winning street. They scared They
scared me last season in the Red, like the last
four or five games when Jordan Love just really got
on fire, and those young receivers and the young defensive
backs and everybody start coming around on the shoot Rob
for once, we finally can have the division to ourselves.
And then the Packers want to get good. Now you know,
(20:47):
all of a sudden, they shoot. Even the Vikings are
a real quality team, so the Lions can't wrestle their
laurels and just think. I mean, sure the Bears are
four and three and they look terrible the first, you know,
a couple of weeks, so they can't wrestle their laurels
just like, oh we got the division.
Speaker 2 (21:00):
Oh we're fine.
Speaker 5 (21:01):
No, you got to keep playing hard, keep getting better,
because this is arguably the best division in all the football.
Speaker 1 (21:07):
Yeah, when you can think about where the Vikings are
the Bears, like you said on a pushover, and those
are division rivals, So yeah, that's gonna be tough, no
doubt about it.
Speaker 5 (21:16):
All Right, we got Lamar Mitchell coming up to see
what the action is on all of these games happening
over the weekend, but right now.
Speaker 3 (21:23):
Be sure to catch live editions of The Odd Couple
with Chris Brussard and Rob Parker weekdays at seven pm
Eastern four pm Pacific on Fox Sports Radio and the
iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 4 (21:34):

Speaker 2 (21:37):
Thank you. All right, I appreciate you, brother.
Speaker 4 (21:39):

Speaker 5 (21:42):
Yeah, we're coming to you live from the tire rack
dot Com studios. Again, we have Lamar Mitchell bet MGM,
director of Training, joining the show.
Speaker 2 (21:51):
Money Money, Money Mine.
Speaker 5 (21:53):
Well, I'll have a voice right now. I've been screaming
all the us last week, screaming at you mostly Rob G.
I mean not robb G, Rob Parker, my bad Ron's all.
Speaker 1 (21:59):
Right, Hey, the longer you're with me, the more screaming
you're gonna do, it's gonna be good in your life.
Speaker 5 (22:04):
No, no, it ain't as it is. But Lamar ain't
trying to hear all that.
Speaker 2 (22:08):
What's up, Lamar?
Speaker 1 (22:13):
Hey, Lamar has been on his show for years. He
knows how I get down. It's just you just gotta adapt.
Speaker 5 (22:18):
That's why it only comes on once a week because
he couldn't take any more than that.
Speaker 4 (22:24):
All right, hey, rob G, but hey here we go.
Let's go, Kevin.
Speaker 1 (22:28):
Let's get started with Lamar and un good weekend, all.
Speaker 2 (22:32):
Right, lamar, We were just talking about it. Man.
Speaker 5 (22:34):
There's a few good games this weekend, But we're gonna
talk about the last time that we saw to and
face the bills. He got hit with that concussion tomorrow.
Hamlet of all people, by the way, hit him, and
he missed the next couple of months. But this week
they're a six point road underdog in Buffalo. The better's
buying it in Miami at all this spot. You know
what I mean too, you can get that offense slinging.
Speaker 7 (22:55):
No stir glevin. No one's buying into the bills, or
excuse me, the Dolphins this weekend. Take a transaction on
this game is about fourteen to one in favor of
the bills.
Speaker 4 (23:05):
How many did one?
Speaker 1 (23:07):
Fourteen to one, fourteen one, four to one, four to one.
Speaker 3 (23:12):
Yeah, So did you guys pull it off the board?
Speaker 2 (23:14):
Are you gonna go out of business?
Speaker 3 (23:16):
What do you?
Speaker 7 (23:18):
Luckily, luckily there's not been a lot of money coming
in on it right now. But even money is about
ten to one in favor of the bills, So the
public is all on on the bills here. We did
have the sharps. We initially opened this game at six
and a half. They took the six and a half.
But we're solid right now at six. So but it's
(23:38):
all it's all bills, money, all builds, transactions.
Speaker 2 (23:41):
On this game, I hear, all right, it's a sneaky
one though, Yeah, it is nicky one, all right.
Speaker 1 (23:44):
The Raiders haven't won a lot of games on the
Antonio Piers, right, but they are twelve and five against
the spread on the AP this week there seven point
road underdogs against the Bengals.
Speaker 4 (23:55):
What kind of action are you seeing in Vegas?
Speaker 7 (23:57):
You know this is this is a Jilles versus those
games one percent, because the pros are all on the Raiders.
You mentioned that against the points, but they're all on
the Raiders here plus eight and a half? What's the
seven and a half? That's what we're at seven right now.
But Joe Public three to one treat took a transaction
in the favor of the Bengals, and money four to
(24:19):
one in favor of the Bengals. So we'll see right here,
it's gonna be Joe's versus pros one hundred percent.
Speaker 2 (24:25):
All right.
Speaker 5 (24:25):
Now, This one is just I mean, this team sometimes
you got to get kicked down and go play college football.
Speaker 1 (24:29):
We're talking about how is the general manager and the
coach still around?
Speaker 3 (24:33):
Sure?
Speaker 5 (24:33):
Yeah, and it's a se four at home this season.
And watch this, Lamar. They're averaging seven point eight per
game points per game at home. That's like somebody like
a seven backup point guard in the NBA.
Speaker 1 (24:44):
Seven point eight points in an NFL four team at.
Speaker 5 (24:47):
Home, absolutely ridiculous. It's the fewest obviously in the league.
But so, Lamar, I'm asking you, what kind of action
are you seeing on the over under forty four and
a half this Sunday when they are facing the Commanders,
who are a really good team.
Speaker 2 (24:58):
That's seven point eight. That's a arrasing no, believe it
or not.
Speaker 7 (25:02):
I mean, the money is all definitely coming out on
the under in this game. But the numbers moved both ways, Joe,
that it over that it under think at transaction in
this situation, believe or not, from the public, they're betting
this game over. So but the Joe, I mean, the
Sharks have been all over this game over the total
(25:25):
forty four and a half, under forty four and a
half back to forty four. So, but money is all
on the under in this right here. So It's gonna
be interesting, especially since you know they haven't really scored
a lot of points. Like you mentioned.
Speaker 1 (25:37):
All right, overs are seven and one in Ravens games
this season, which is the highest over percentage in the NFL.
This week they got the Bronc goals and their stingy defense.
Where the Sharps on this the over unders forty three
and a half.
Speaker 3 (25:53):
Yeah, I believe it.
Speaker 7 (25:54):
Man. We open this at forty three. We're at forty
six and a half right now because that market has
been driven by the show Sharp money is all on this.
This is also a game where the public is all
on the over to believe it or not, they're they're
on this as well too as far as money. Uh So,
it's gonna be interesting to see, you know, Like I said,
(26:16):
the public is on this on the money. The Sharks
are on this on the money, forty three all the
way to forty six.
Speaker 5 (26:21):
And a half, all right, And after looking at a
turnover machine last year and a half, Jayler hurts zero
giveaway Zamar in the past few games starting to get
it right, and because of that, you got Philadelphia three
and over that stretch with the points for game differential
of plus sixteen point three.
Speaker 2 (26:38):
Where are the sharps at the on.
Speaker 5 (26:40):
The Eagles right now and they're giving they're getting let
me say that, their favorite seven and a half against
the Jacks, who are just really a bad team right now.
Speaker 7 (26:49):
Yeah, this is definitely a game where the public and
the Sharks on the staying side, the Sharks laid the
seven up to the seven and a half. Public is
on this, on this on the Sharps on the Eagle side,
money's about ten to one in favor of the Eagles
and that ticket transaction about four to one in favor
of the Eagles. So yeah, this is a game where
we're definitely gonna need the Jags. I don't know if
(27:12):
Joey excuse me, I don't know if like for Lawrence,
can you know cover that seven and a half. But
that's where we're definitely gonna need these guys right.
Speaker 4 (27:20):
Now, all right.
Speaker 1 (27:21):
The game of the week Lions against the Packers and
latt Lambeau on the mat the Florida. The Packers are
six and one outright against the spread as home underdog,
so they win when they counted out. With that in mind,
I assume the betters are all over Green Bay getting
two and a half at home. You will be mistaken, sir.
Speaker 7 (27:41):
I got gotta tell you. Public is all on the line.
Speaker 1 (27:45):
Is that because Jordan loved too as the groin and
Jacobs is banged up too, right?
Speaker 4 (27:50):
Is that?
Speaker 7 (27:51):
Yeah? Absolutely? I mean the public. I mean, money's a
four to one in favor of the lines here, tickets
are three to one in favor of the line. But
the Sharps, the guys who drive the market, they've been
pounding this number and we opened it four and it's
been that down all the way to two and a half.
I mean they took the four, they took the four,
(28:13):
four and a half down, a four, down, a three
and a half, down to three, down to two and
a half. So yeah, sharp's definitely on the Packers and
they love that getting points against the Lions here, But
the public is all on the Lions.
Speaker 2 (28:25):
All right.
Speaker 5 (28:25):
We got to talk about a team because it's mandatory.
You got to do it when you're talking football. The
Cowboys they're owing five in they're past five games following
a loss. This week, they're three point road underdogs Amar
against the Falcons, who would be the opposite. They won
four straight. You got Kirk Cousins going crazy right now?
Where are the Sharps on this one?
Speaker 7 (28:43):
Sharks have been on these side of the Falcons. I
got to say, unfortunately for Cowboy Nation out there, Cowboy fans,
it doesn't look like, you know, they're going to get
a good result in this situation here, because the Sharks
have been pounding this number from two to two and
a half up to three. Joe Pubbler is they're split
on the fifty to fifty right now in the middle
as far as ticket transaction. But yeah, I mean, the
(29:06):
Sharps definitely land the points in the Falcon. So, uh,
you know, the Cowboys are not in a good spot here.
Speaker 1 (29:12):
It just feels like the Cowboys are due, you know
what I mean? Like that, like like just on looking
at it, I agree it should be the Falcons, but
you just they've lost so many games in the row
and they've looked terrible, Like at some point you figure
they're not going to have a good night.
Speaker 5 (29:28):
What have we just spend time talking about? You got
Micah Hayten on Dax. This ain't a good thing right now,
all right?
Speaker 7 (29:34):
Lamar absolutely, because you've seen how they play. They've been
a turnover machine on offense, can't block, can't tackle on defense,
and uh, you know the Sharps are looking at that
and saying, yeah, they can't. They can't operate in those
fastest of the game, and that's why they're betting the Falcons.
Speaker 5 (29:51):
All right, here's Lamar Mitchell brother. We appreciate you all
ways on weekend.
Speaker 2 (29:56):
Thank you man.
Speaker 7 (29:57):

Speaker 4 (31:44):
I didn't get here, all right, I didn't get into
the janitorial staff. Under the I didn't get here.
Speaker 3 (31:52):
It's a case of I didn't get in till three thirty.
Speaker 4 (31:55):
Robed Jeeves, you gotta wear this owl.
Speaker 6 (31:57):
And I know you you gotta take this out on
the I know, why are you throwing out good food?
It's no is that about good food? It was in
there we usually throw stuff out.
Speaker 4 (32:07):
Mary mad food in there by other people.
Speaker 1 (32:10):
How did they determine that they kept some stuff in
there and threw other stuff out? It looked at my
brand new big ZD which I paid over ten dollars for.
And I'll probably require myself to sleep tonight because ten
dollars went to waste.
Speaker 2 (32:26):
Rob.
Speaker 5 (32:26):
Here's the thing, though you've been here eight years, did
you claim, Rob claim?
Speaker 2 (32:31):
I mean assume that this is something weekly.
Speaker 6 (32:35):
Well, you actually know it just got implemented like maybe
a month because.
Speaker 4 (32:41):
Rob Parker would leave his bag. He was like three
weeks into it.
Speaker 6 (32:47):
There was some old chicken bones, all chicken wings, and
that's why it was.
Speaker 4 (32:52):
They weren't mine. Legend I'm putting in. Let's ask I
was Sam if they were yours or not?
Speaker 2 (32:58):
You?
Speaker 1 (32:59):
I bet you ie with Sam came back and and
and went home, came back and then threw my ZD
out and then went back home. That's what I think.
I'm not even gonna blame Caesar. I'm gonna blame Iowa
Sam without.
Speaker 6 (33:13):
He's actually in the back studio, so he want to
you know, Jake, Paul look and Paul.
Speaker 4 (33:19):
About he's in the back studio. Iowa Sam is here.
Speaker 6 (33:22):
He's here.
Speaker 1 (33:22):
There's no doubt my mind. Sam threw it out? Rob
g who threw it out? Caesar or Iowa Sam?
Speaker 4 (33:30):
If I'd have been understand I was Sam. He's done
it before. He likes to clean out.
Speaker 1 (33:38):
I have my bag in there once and he was like, hey,
you know you have a bag in there.
Speaker 4 (33:41):
I said, yes, and there's iced tea in there.
Speaker 6 (33:44):
Yes, but you had a bag of iced tea. I
would have thrown it out too. That's have a cup.
Come on, how did you have it? All Right, we
gotta get the NFL picks game, but I do.
Speaker 5 (33:54):
I'm glad we all came in conclusion that you should
have did better with your bazy. You should have treasured
it and prized it and did better.
Speaker 1 (34:00):
Man, I'm gonna put in a bag there, said don't
throw my food out there any circumstance and put there you.
Speaker 5 (34:06):
Go, all right, Or we can review the security tape

Speaker 3 (34:11):

Speaker 9 (34:21):

Speaker 9 (34:44):
I'm all these odds. Courtesy Lamar Mitchell Ben MGM. We
got him on Friday morning. This sh shifted, but we're
gonna stick with what we got this morning. Here we go,
Chargers one and a half point road favorites in Cleveland
against famous Jamis and the Browns.
Speaker 4 (34:57):
Rob Parker, I'm going with the Browns. I'm sorry.
Speaker 1 (35:00):
I mean Jamis Winston is a good quarterback, and if
he's not throwing interceptions, he's a really good quarterback. I
think they build off of that win last week. That
was a big time win over the Ravens. What's it
out of game?
Speaker 9 (35:13):
Rob?
Speaker 4 (35:15):
One and a half?
Speaker 5 (35:18):
Yeah, give me the I think Jamis is onto something.
Hes gonna throw a couple of interceptions, but he gonna
throw a couple of times, and I was as well,
give me Jamis, Give me the Browns.
Speaker 2 (35:23):
Maybe they feeling good. They got something going with him
at the QB.
Speaker 9 (35:25):
Now, all right, Game number two two is return to
Buffalo Bill's six point home favorites k dub.
Speaker 5 (35:34):
Ah Bills.
Speaker 2 (35:37):
Yeah, I wanted to.
Speaker 5 (35:38):
I wanted to go, you know, because I think two
in the team the dolphense might get to Roland. But
at the end of the day, Josh Allen's playing great
and he hasn't thrown a touchdown, I mean an interception.
Speaker 1 (35:49):
Yeah, it's hard. I really want to take the Dolphins
as well.
Speaker 2 (35:52):
I know I want to, but but I.
Speaker 1 (35:54):
Don't think so. I think that the Bills will they
win by seven. I think they will because it's six, right, yep.
I'll take the Bills minus six. Guys are on the
same page. Game Uber three, Jags out the Eagles.
Speaker 9 (36:06):
The new look Eagles Philadelphia seven and a half point
home favorites.
Speaker 4 (36:10):
Rob Parker.
Speaker 1 (36:11):
I'm gonna take the Jags. That they lose the Jags,
but they but they covered at seven and a half.
Speaker 2 (36:21):
Give me it again.
Speaker 4 (36:23):
Eagles seven and a half point home favorite against Jacksonville.
Speaker 5 (36:25):
Yeah, give me give me the Eagles. They're in a
row right now. We talked about it too. I think
that the offense is starting to pick up. Jalen Hurts
are starting to look like the Jalen Hurts we thought
he was. Give me Jalen Hurst. They keep going, they
keep rolling. It start to put a little scared in
the NFC, all right.
Speaker 9 (36:38):
Last two or Quick Lions two and a half point
road favorites in Green Bay Lions green Bay six and
one when they're underdogs at home with the points.
Speaker 4 (36:48):
I'm with the Sharp, so I'm gonna take Green Bay
all right.
Speaker 9 (36:51):
Last one Joe Flacco and the Colts in Minnesota against
the Vikings Minnesota five and a half point home favorites.
Speaker 1 (36:56):
Rob Parker, Minnesota's fading lost two in a row after
that five and oh start.
Speaker 4 (37:02):
I'm gonna go with Flight, go to old Man.
Speaker 5 (37:05):
I want to do that too, because I think with
him and Taylor, but I'm gonna go with the Vikings.
Speaker 2 (37:09):
They write the ship.
Speaker 5 (37:10):
The defense is too much in a competitive game, but
the Vikings win.
Speaker 2 (37:13):
That's why.
Speaker 4 (37:14):
That's how we can pick off man Man. Have a

Speaker 2 (02:25):
So like you were at that cutoff.
Speaker 5 (02:28):
So you were the oldest in your year, right, yeah, yeah, right,
because you were that cutof. So the cutoff now, at
least in California, so early now that they forced kids
to do a thing called TK. We didn't have t K.
Robbie was just you're gonna be the young one or
you're gonna be the old one in preschool kindergarten. Now
they have this whole through TK system, Transitional Kindergarten. And
(02:49):
so my older two daughters are in October and November,
so they're forced to go to that. So what happens
is all the kids in their class, their birthdays are
within like the same five days. So it's birthday, birthday, birthday, birthday, birthday, birthday, birthday.
Speaker 2 (03:03):
And I'm like what that?
Speaker 5 (03:04):
And Rob, you know, back in the day when you
were in New York, you went Timmy, Derek, Bobby, maybe Lisa.
That was your birthday party, a couple other people. That's
why now these kids.
Speaker 2 (03:16):
You gotta invite the whole class.
Speaker 1 (03:18):
We don't invite the whole class is gonna be an issue, right, So, man, it.
Speaker 5 (03:22):
Ain't like it was in the eighties and the nineties,
Like you picked your I got Bob, Chris Vick.
Speaker 4 (03:26):
Got a few people, right and that's it.
Speaker 1 (03:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (03:28):
No, you gotta bring everybody, and she's got to bring everybody,
so you have to go to every party.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
It's crazy. It's a life of its own, dude, and
I can't take it them.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
Oh yeah, I'm hoping to have a great, uh relaxing weekend,
not going anywhere on no trips, nothing happening, just relax
for change. And you know, the World Series is all over,
fun neck and ex hell with MLB bro and all
the stuff we do. So it's down season on the
podcast for me, Inside the Parker is monthly now now
that the season is over, you know what I mean.
Speaker 5 (03:56):
So I get some chill top. You need to sit
your butt down. You've been trying all over the place. Yeah,
so it's definitely there.
Speaker 1 (04:02):
But all right, let's talk about the Detroit Lions of
a big game in Green Bay.
Speaker 3 (04:06):
I don't like.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
I don't like it's own already can tell you. I
don't like it.
Speaker 1 (04:09):
I'm just because you're all in and the best team
in the league, Jared Golf is the MVP and all
this stuff.
Speaker 4 (04:17):
I just don't see it. But I want to hear
your case.
Speaker 2 (04:19):
I don't know, well, how are you not right now?
Speaker 4 (04:21):
First, because they have one good win, but we'll get
to that.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
Go ahead.
Speaker 4 (04:24):
I want to hear it.
Speaker 5 (04:25):
Is It is rare that a team again, you know,
you come back from a great season last season, but
a horrible loss and you're able to bounce back and
continue that and if not maybe even be better. Right now,
they're sitting at six and one. They look spectacular. They're
thrashing everybody. They're winning by plus one hundred points in
the point differential, and Jared Golf is going crazy right
(04:49):
now in the last five games. When you're talking about
quarterback rating, when you're talking about passing percentage over in
eighty percent, their scoring offense is ridiculous. They got do
you want to run the ball, you want to pass
the ball, whatever you want. And again they're playing with
a chip on the shoulder as if to say, we
messed this thing up last year. We had a chance
(05:09):
to be in the Super Bowl for the first time
since it wasn't even called the Super Bowl. It was
a guppy, No, it was beyond who was first. It
was before like Adam and Eve, and all of a
sudden we blew that.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
So they come back with Avengeance.
Speaker 5 (05:21):
I love what Dan Campbell's doing, got those guys fired up.
And of course offensive coordinator Ben Johnson, who I pray
they never lose, because I mean he once he leaves,
I'm worried.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
But I just love what they're doing.
Speaker 5 (05:32):
And Jared Goff is definitely the leading candidate, if not
one or two for the MVP right now, but what
he has his team looking like. And you got other
court coaches you are even acknowledging as of right now.
Speaker 4 (05:45):
Yes, how many yards did he have last week?
Speaker 2 (05:50):
I don't know, three four touchdowns? All I know?
Speaker 4 (05:52):
How many yards?
Speaker 2 (05:53):
Do you know? A ninety or something?
Speaker 4 (05:56):
One hundred and eighty five? Okay?
Speaker 5 (05:58):
Yeah, yeah, how many touchdowns did he has? I'm just
saying eighty five yards.
Speaker 1 (06:03):
Let's not no, No, it's got to be at a context,
that's all it is.
Speaker 2 (06:08):
A context. Are you looking at this man's stats? Yeah?
Speaker 5 (06:10):
I am seventeen hundred yards thirteen touchdowns, four interceptions. That's
in one hundred and fifteen quarterback raty and he caught
one two without the sticky gloves. He caught a touchdown pass.
He's had a perfect game. He had another almost perfect game.
And I'm not saying hell, at the end of the season,
win MVP, but right now he's right there with another
(06:31):
guy or two. And I just love the way they
got this team the Rowland right now, and I just
think they're the best team, which is why it's gonna
be a big game against the Green May Backpackers, who
look great as well, to continue to see who leads
the division and also really who leads the end of
the entire conference of the NFC.
Speaker 2 (06:46):
I don't see how you feel differently.
Speaker 1 (06:49):
Well, because I always want to take it in context too,
because the team could have more losses but play better
teams and better competitions and better wins.
Speaker 4 (06:58):
So so, and then you can.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
Look at the Lions and I'm not taking anything away
from I'm not cause you got to play was on
the schedule, but you do have to take it in
context and say, the best one they had was Minnesota,
and then all the other people, all the other teams
were basically chopped liver. And when you look at the
record of the teams that they've beaten, right, I'm talking
(07:21):
about the combined record, they're under five hundred, they're twenty
and twenty four. So they've beaten a lot of teams
that aren't good. Like when they re beat the Cowboys,
you say, oh wow, they went to Dallas. Everybody beats
the Cowboys, so that win doesn't feel nearly and they
beat the breaks off of them, but it doesn't feel
(07:42):
nearly as good as if these was the Cowboy teams
that had a sixteen game winning streak at home or
the Cowboys team that had won thirteen games the last
three years.
Speaker 4 (07:53):
You know what I mean.
Speaker 5 (07:54):
Or let me counter that, let me counter that you're
right that they're not. I mean, the NFL is kind
of weird right now. They're not easily great teams. Obviously,
Kansas City and I think they do play each other
and at some point, if I'm not mistaken, could be
wrong on that. But I'm looking at things like the Cowboys.
They didn't the Cowboys beat the Steelers. Now, no, that
was justin fields. But I mean they've beaten three teams
(08:15):
they beat the breaks off of them.
Speaker 2 (08:16):
Right, Okay, cool.
Speaker 5 (08:18):
Then you go to the Seahawks, you know they've had
some ups and downs with the season, they beat the
breaks off of them. Then you go to the Titans,
who they're supposed to be, they beat the breaks off
of them. So my thing is they're not letting teams.
They're not having like the Ravens, who I still think,
come on, now, you know how I feel about the Ravens.
They're the team that you'd fear you're going to play
because the way they play. But the Ravens have had
some games where you're like, why did you lose to
(08:38):
the Raiders? Why did you lose to the Browns James
Winston's first start? Why did you let the Cowboys come
all the way back and make this thing a very
very well score game.
Speaker 2 (08:46):
So I when you look at.
Speaker 1 (08:48):
Some of the wins that they had, I think that's
what's impressive by it.
Speaker 5 (08:51):
So they got some great which is why the Ravens,
you know, how to feel, they're still right up there
with me. They're not as if all of a sudden
they dropped below ten. I'm not Michael Parsons out here
in the streets, but my point is they're doing what
they're supposed to do and some and I respect that
because how many times we.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
Go, man, how do this team lose to that team?
Speaker 5 (09:06):
Or how they only beat him by a field goal,
or man, I was way too close for my comfort.
They're going in on a mission and they're stomping on
people and they're putting their foot on their throat, and
I appreciate that because that shows me something that they
learned from last year of playing around and keeping teams
in and playing loose and let's try this, and let
they are saying no, no, no, we have learned. And
(09:27):
again they're gonna have a hiccup. They got, you know,
several more games. They're gonna have a game where like
I was a clunker or they barely win. But as
of right now, they're absolutely taking care of business. And
I think Jared Goff should be getting a little bit
more love the way he's controlling the best offense in
the NFL right now.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
But when you look at some of the numbers, and
like I said, the three touchdowns, great eighty five yards
or whatever it was, it's just not that impressive. And
when you looked at what the Ravens did to like
the Bills. Like right, the Bills are a really good team,
and some of the other wins that they've had, and
I get it, they they've lost a couple games as well.
The defense let Jameis Winston march down and beat them,
(10:05):
and their foot was on the line against the Chiefs,
that could have been a huge win of Week one.
They played them really well, came I made a huge
comeback in Kansas City, and then the debacle against that
just was a debacle against the Raiders because the Raiders
aren't a good team. I just I look at the
degree of difficulty. I look at a lot of other things.
And that's why even when I talked about the Chiefs,
(10:30):
this is not new for me because I said this
before that even when the Steelers were nine and oh
or ten and oh wherever they were that year, I
did not feel like they were great. Do you know
what I mean? I really didn't. They wanted to say
on the line. So I come to you, I say, Rod,
what don't you like about us? That would be my thing.
It's not that I don't like anything about them, because
(10:51):
I said I even picked them to beat the Vikings,
didn't I? I did so It's not like I don't
think that they're good or I picked against them every week,
picked him to beat the Vikings in Minnesota because I
didn't think Minnesota was that great and I thought the
Lions are better than the Vikings despite the Vikings at
that point being undefeated.
Speaker 4 (11:12):
You see what I'm saying.
Speaker 5 (11:13):
I'm just going to hear you, but I'm saying I
don't think there's a better team in the entire conference them.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
Yeah, I just think I still like the Ravens. If
I was to say who's the best team in the
NFL despite their how many losses they have now three?
Despite their three losses, I still I would take the
Ravens any day over them.
Speaker 4 (11:32):
I really the.
Speaker 5 (11:33):
Only thing that would worry I would take the Lions
because of how they're playing right now. But historically, when
you look at Lamar Jackson versus NFC, he's got to
get to a Super Bowl, rob so he can put
this stat to test.
Speaker 2 (11:43):
I think he's like twenty two or twenty three and one.
Speaker 4 (11:46):
Yeah, it's incredible.
Speaker 5 (11:47):
That is one of the greatest stats I've ever heard
in my life that like no one really talks about.
Speaker 2 (11:52):
Like, if he gets to a Super Bowl.
Speaker 5 (11:56):
The statistics say he's gonna beat that NFC team. He's
just got to get by Patrick Mahomes so he can
finally do that. But I would love to see the
Ravens and Lions. That would be an amazing Super Bowl. Currently,
I haven't picked the Lions in Kansas City. That's where
I picked at the beginning of the season, and obviously that
still looks great.
Speaker 2 (12:13):
Between the two teams.
Speaker 5 (12:14):
You got thirteen wins and one loss between those two teams.
So I just love what I've seeing from them right now. Man,
they're on a mission. They're destroying people again, one hundred
points plus differential right now, five game winning streak, and
I think they're just on a mission to right there
wrong from last season. And I love to see that
because oftentimes teams come in and then you're like, well,
what happened from last year? Why aren't they playing as well?
(12:35):
Why aren't they keeping up with the expectations. They're doing
that and some and I think they're only going to
get stronger as they continue to go through and play
some tougher teams that even if they take a loss,
you know it's good.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
They have played a better team.
Speaker 5 (12:46):
And this week is a great example of that, going
up against the Green Bay Packers, who are really good teams.
Speaker 4 (12:51):
Jordan Love playing and is Jacobs as well?
Speaker 2 (12:54):
Yeah, well I think Love is playing.
Speaker 5 (12:55):
We'll have to wait and seeven Jacobs might both be out.
Speaker 2 (12:59):
Yeah that's a big that.
Speaker 4 (13:00):
And then again, that would be if those two guys
are on playing.
Speaker 1 (13:02):
It's not that if the Lions can't go up there
and win and beat them, but you would have to
look at that game and go, yeah.
Speaker 2 (13:08):
Yeah, I would.
Speaker 5 (13:08):
I want him to play, so you go right see
that kind of feel out how both teams are and
so I hope he's playing, so that you're playing a
team at their at least full strength, or at least
as close to that as possible.
Speaker 2 (13:20):
But I like what I'm seeing.
Speaker 5 (13:21):
I don't think there's a better team right now in football,
and the way they just beat you right off the bat.
They just come in, take your heart and then they
stump on it. And I love seeing two at any sport.
I just love seeing teams do that, not play around
with their food and keep people in the game and
you know, have mental farts and lose the you know,
kind of like the Yankees or how the Ravens have
done a couple of times. You're just kind of your
(13:41):
blank out and you know, man, pound keep going, keep going,
and uh they've been able to do that. I love
what I'm seeing from them all right.
Speaker 1 (13:47):

about the Lions you all bought in, Kelvin says it's
a best team in the NFL, and Jared Gofft the MVP.
Speaker 2 (15:25):
The last part, that last part was a little bit
a little bit much.
Speaker 4 (15:28):
I can you know that?
Speaker 5 (15:31):
No, I think it's still lamars to be to be
taken if you will.
Speaker 2 (15:35):
But Jared's right there.
Speaker 1 (15:36):
All right, eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox, Scott
in Phoenix, you're on the odd couple, Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 4 (15:43):
What's up, Scott?
Speaker 3 (15:45):
I much, sir, have a great evening radio, top Thank you.
Speaker 7 (15:50):
Best team in the NFC, absolutely best team in the league.
Definitely not Why not not? Uh, we're talking Jared MVP.
Speaker 3 (16:00):
Come on now, you man roster right, we're talking Brock
Purty or what? Come on man?
Speaker 2 (16:06):
Wait, what do you mean?
Speaker 7 (16:07):
It's the real MVP.
Speaker 3 (16:09):
Everybody knows that Josh Allen's been covering his home depot
employees on a roster. Come on now.
Speaker 7 (16:15):
But the Lions will go to the super Bowl for sure.
Speaker 2 (16:18):
All right?
Speaker 5 (16:18):
That was I appreciate the caught that was all over
the play. They're gonna get to the super Bowl, but
they got the MVP. But they're not the best team,
but they in the super Bowl. Parker makes sense of that.
For me, I can't because he was all over the place.
Speaker 2 (16:30):
It's kind of work. But they're not with this.
Speaker 5 (16:31):
But then but then they're going to the super Bowl.
But then Jared got but then Brock party. You know,
he feeling good on a Friday, that's all. He's still
got some of that Halloween candy. Might put a little
brandy in his He's feeling good.
Speaker 2 (16:40):
That's all.
Speaker 1 (16:41):
That is eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox. I mean,
we still got what the Lions as always this despite
last year, despite getting to the NFC Championship game and
having a big lead in the first half and wind
up losing it and not going there is always going
to be I don't care how well they played, It's
going to be a degree of can they finish the job?
(17:03):
Is there coach gonna make a mistake? Is Jared Golf
gonna throw a bad interception at some point? You know,
like like is that fair or not? That there's still
that desp I don't care how well they play. Can
they finish the job?
Speaker 5 (17:17):
Can they The compliment to them is, for the first
time probably ever, finish the job means, you know, getting
back to a super Bowl and getting to us soon,
not back to a super Bowl, getting to the super Bowl,
getting to a super Bowl and obviously once you get there,
you want to win it. That ain't never been the
case for the lions of my entire life. Is getting
to a super Bowl. Like the fact that their expectations
(17:37):
is that is a compliment to Dan Campbell and what
he's created as far as I can.
Speaker 4 (17:42):
But I'm still saying that there's still yeah, because that.
Speaker 2 (17:46):
Write any fifty years of history.
Speaker 5 (17:47):
I'm with you, like they're trying to get you know,
and it's like It's like the Cubs for eighty five
ninety years. You know, they're like, oh, something's gonna go wrong,
and man, this isn't gonna work even if we're in
a big playoff game.
Speaker 2 (17:59):
See bart, here we go.
Speaker 5 (18:01):
So certain teams, when you have a history of stink,
it's hard to get that stink off.
Speaker 2 (18:05):
You hate, you need it.
Speaker 1 (18:06):
More than you get it, right, I agree, And until
it happens, then people cannot use that. It was just
like when the Cubs finally won, Like you just can't
use that argument anymore.
Speaker 4 (18:16):
They've won, they got it done.
Speaker 1 (18:18):
It's all over and nobody talks about that one hundred
and eight years or whatever it.
Speaker 5 (18:23):
Was, right, Yeah, and that's yeah, I agreed, And that's
why that's what the Lions are.
Speaker 2 (18:27):
Yeah, And I think the reason why I what I
like from them.
Speaker 5 (18:30):
And again this is I know obviously being from the
from there, from the area, but I'm just saying I
like that they took last year and they've gotten better.
Whereas you know, again, how many teams, ah, we'll be back,
don't worry about it, and then they falter, they don't
look good or they don't look great, and they don't
have that same tenacity, or maybe they got fat off
the fact that they've had a last couple of good
seasons and they lose that thing, and I like seeing
(18:52):
that they've come back and are equally as good and
if not better. That's hard to do in any walk
of life, and I think I'm impressed by that. Again,
how many teams think that, like the Bucks, we'll be
all right, Giannis is gonna be healthy and Dame Lily
And it's like, dude, you guys look bad, you know
what I mean, Just because you think all were gonna
come back and play harder and we'll be that isn't
always the case. So I like the fact that they've
(19:14):
been able to do that. I thought that's been pretty cool.
Speaker 1 (19:15):
How about the Hutcherson loss, I mean, will that affect them?
You don't think that's gonna have any effect? I mean
long term it hasn't so far. But but losing a
player of that ill Can caliber.
Speaker 5 (19:27):
That was a big loss. You know, he's been one TJ.
Watt him, maybe one other guy as far as non
quarterbacks to me make the most difference, he was right
up in that category for me.
Speaker 2 (19:37):
So that's a massive loss.
Speaker 5 (19:38):
I think they've been able to circumvent that right now
by getting a lot of pressure from other guys, and
the linebackers have stepped up, some of the other defensive
front has stepped up, and you know what, one of
the best defensive game plans is rob their offense. Sometimes
you got, all right, well, we're gonna just have to
outscore some teams. And obviously they've been demolishing teams lately,
(19:59):
but I know they're gonna, like, for sayce this weekend,
if Jordan Love is healthy, this is gonna be one
of those We're not gonna contain them that much. They're
putting up minimum twenty four points, you know what I mean?
Twenty So we're gonna have to make sure we outscore
them and.
Speaker 1 (20:11):
Get off if they lose to the Packers. Right, what's
the Packers record? They only like get six and two
or some five and two, six and two, only one
game if they lose to the Packers six and two,
even though the Lions are the favorite going up to
Green Bay.
Speaker 4 (20:25):
Would that bother you at all?
Speaker 5 (20:26):
Or just that's really that's a really good team right there, Dude,
they're on a four game winning street. They scared They
scared me last season in the Red, like the last
four or five games when Jordan Love just really got
on fire, and those young receivers and the young defensive
backs and everybody start coming around on the shoot Rob
for once, we finally can have the division to ourselves.
And then the Packers want to get good. Now you know,
(20:47):
all of a sudden, they shoot. Even the Vikings are
a real quality team, so the Lions can't wrestle their
laurels and just think. I mean, sure the Bears are
four and three and they look terrible the first, you know,
a couple of weeks, so they can't wrestle their laurels
just like, oh we got the division.
Speaker 2 (21:00):
Oh we're fine.
Speaker 5 (21:01):
No, you got to keep playing hard, keep getting better,
because this is arguably the best division in all the football.
Speaker 1 (21:07):
Yeah, when you can think about where the Vikings are
the Bears, like you said on a pushover, and those
are division rivals, So yeah, that's gonna be tough, no
doubt about it.
Speaker 5 (21:16):
All Right, we got Lamar Mitchell coming up to see
what the action is on all of these games happening
over the weekend, but right now.

you're gonna do, it's gonna be good in your life.
Speaker 5 (22:04):
No, no, it ain't as it is. But Lamar ain't
trying to hear all that.
Speaker 2 (22:08):
What's up, Lamar?
Speaker 1 (22:13):
Hey, Lamar has been on his show for years. He
knows how I get down. It's just you just gotta adapt.
Speaker 5 (22:18):
That's why it only comes on once a week because
he couldn't take any more than that.
Speaker 4 (22:24):
All right, hey, rob G, but hey here we go.
Let's go, Kevin.
Speaker 1 (22:28):
Let's get started with Lamar and un good weekend, all.
Speaker 2 (22:32):
Right, lamar, We were just talking about it. Man.
Speaker 5 (22:34):
There's a few good games this weekend, But we're gonna
talk about the last time that we saw to and
face the bills. He got hit with that concussion tomorrow.
Hamlet of all people, by the way, hit him, and
he missed the next couple of months. But this week
they're a six point road underdog in Buffalo. The better's
buying it in Miami at all this spot. You know
what I mean too, you can get that offense slinging.
Speaker 7 (22:55):
No stir glevin. No one's buying into the bills, or
excuse me, the Dolphins this weekend. Take a transaction on
this game is about fourteen to one in favor of
the bills.
Speaker 4 (23:05):
How many did one?
Speaker 1 (23:07):
Fourteen to one, fourteen one, four to one, four to one.
Speaker 3 (23:12):
Yeah, So did you guys pull it off the board?
Speaker 2 (23:14):
Are you gonna go out of business?
Speaker 3 (23:16):
What do you?
Speaker 7 (23:18):
Luckily, luckily there's not been a lot of money coming
in on it right now. But even money is about
ten to one in favor of the bills, So the
public is all on on the bills here. We did
have the sharps. We initially opened this game at six
and a half. They took the six and a half.
But we're solid right now at six. So but it's
(23:38):
all it's all bills, money, all builds, transactions.
Speaker 2 (23:41):
On this game, I hear, all right, it's a sneaky
one though, Yeah, it is nicky one, all right.
Speaker 1 (23:44):
The Raiders haven't won a lot of games on the
Antonio Piers, right, but they are twelve and five against
the spread on the AP this week there seven point
road underdogs against the Bengals.
Speaker 4 (23:55):
What kind of action are you seeing in Vegas?
Speaker 7 (23:57):
You know this is this is a Jilles versus those
games one percent, because the pros are all on the Raiders.
You mentioned that against the points, but they're all on
the Raiders here plus eight and a half? What's the
seven and a half? That's what we're at seven right now.
But Joe Public three to one treat took a transaction
in the favor of the Bengals, and money four to
(24:19):
one in favor of the Bengals. So we'll see right here,
it's gonna be Joe's versus pros one hundred percent.
Speaker 2 (24:25):
All right.
Speaker 5 (24:25):
Now, This one is just I mean, this team sometimes
you got to get kicked down and go play college football.
Speaker 1 (24:29):
We're talking about how is the general manager and the
coach still around?
Speaker 3 (24:33):
Sure?
Speaker 5 (24:33):
Yeah, and it's a se four at home this season.
And watch this, Lamar. They're averaging seven point eight per
game points per game at home. That's like somebody like
a seven backup point guard in the NBA.
Speaker 1 (24:44):
Seven point eight points in an NFL four team at.
Speaker 5 (24:47):
Home, absolutely ridiculous. It's the fewest obviously in the league.
But so, Lamar, I'm asking you, what kind of action
are you seeing on the over under forty four and
a half this Sunday when they are facing the Commanders,
who are a really good team.
Speaker 2 (24:58):
That's seven point eight. That's a arrasing no, believe it
or not.
Speaker 7 (25:02):
I mean, the money is all definitely coming out on
the under in this game. But the numbers moved both ways, Joe,
that it over that it under think at transaction in
this situation, believe or not, from the public, they're betting
this game over. So but the Joe, I mean, the
Sharks have been all over this game over the total
(25:25):
forty four and a half, under forty four and a
half back to forty four. So, but money is all
on the under in this right here. So It's gonna
be interesting, especially since you know they haven't really scored
a lot of points. Like you mentioned.
Speaker 1 (25:37):
All right, overs are seven and one in Ravens games
this season, which is the highest over percentage in the NFL.
This week they got the Bronc goals and their stingy defense.
Where the Sharps on this the over unders forty three
and a half.
Speaker 3 (25:53):
Yeah, I believe it.
Speaker 7 (25:54):
Man. We open this at forty three. We're at forty
six and a half right now because that market has
been driven by the show Sharp money is all on this.
This is also a game where the public is all
on the over to believe it or not, they're they're
on this as well too as far as money. Uh So,
it's gonna be interesting to see, you know, Like I said,
(26:16):
the public is on this on the money. The Sharks
are on this on the money, forty three all the
way to forty six.
Speaker 5 (26:21):
And a half, all right, And after looking at a
turnover machine last year and a half, Jayler hurts zero
giveaway Zamar in the past few games starting to get
it right, and because of that, you got Philadelphia three
and over that stretch with the points for game differential
of plus sixteen point three.
Speaker 2 (26:38):
Where are the sharps at the on.
Speaker 5 (26:40):
The Eagles right now and they're giving they're getting let
me say that, their favorite seven and a half against
the Jacks, who are just really a bad team right now.
Speaker 7 (26:49):
Yeah, this is definitely a game where the public and
the Sharks on the staying side, the Sharks laid the
seven up to the seven and a half. Public is
on this, on this on the Sharps on the Eagle side,
money's about ten to one in favor of the Eagles
and that ticket transaction about four to one in favor
of the Eagles. So yeah, this is a game where
we're definitely gonna need the Jags. I don't know if
(27:12):
Joey excuse me, I don't know if like for Lawrence,
can you know cover that seven and a half. But
that's where we're definitely gonna need these guys right.
Speaker 4 (27:20):
Now, all right.
Speaker 1 (27:21):
The game of the week Lions against the Packers and
latt Lambeau on the mat the Florida. The Packers are
six and one outright against the spread as home underdog,
so they win when they counted out. With that in mind,
I assume the betters are all over Green Bay getting
two and a half at home. You will be mistaken, sir.
Speaker 7 (27:41):
I got gotta tell you. Public is all on the line.
Speaker 1 (27:45):
Is that because Jordan loved too as the groin and
Jacobs is banged up too, right?
Speaker 4 (27:50):
Is that?
Speaker 7 (27:51):
Yeah? Absolutely? I mean the public. I mean, money's a
four to one in favor of the lines here, tickets
are three to one in favor of the line. But
the Sharps, the guys who drive the market, they've been
pounding this number and we opened it four and it's
been that down all the way to two and a half.
I mean they took the four, they took the four,
(28:13):
four and a half down, a four, down, a three
and a half, down to three, down to two and
a half. So yeah, sharp's definitely on the Packers and
they love that getting points against the Lions here, But
the public is all on the Lions.
Speaker 2 (28:25):
All right.
Speaker 5 (28:25):
We got to talk about a team because it's mandatory.
You got to do it when you're talking football. The
Cowboys they're owing five in they're past five games following
a loss. This week, they're three point road underdogs Amar
against the Falcons, who would be the opposite. They won
four straight. You got Kirk Cousins going crazy right now?
Where are the Sharps on this one?
Speaker 7 (28:43):
Sharks have been on these side of the Falcons. I
got to say, unfortunately for Cowboy Nation out there, Cowboy fans,
it doesn't look like, you know, they're going to get
a good result in this situation here, because the Sharks
have been pounding this number from two to two and
a half up to three. Joe Pubbler is they're split
on the fifty to fifty right now in the middle
as far as ticket transaction. But yeah, I mean, the
(29:06):
Sharps definitely land the points in the Falcon. So, uh,
you know, the Cowboys are not in a good spot here.
Speaker 1 (29:12):
It just feels like the Cowboys are due, you know
what I mean? Like that, like like just on looking
at it, I agree it should be the Falcons, but
you just they've lost so many games in the row
and they've looked terrible, Like at some point you figure
they're not going to have a good night.
Speaker 5 (29:28):
What have we just spend time talking about? You got
Micah Hayten on Dax. This ain't a good thing right now,
all right?
Speaker 7 (29:34):
Lamar absolutely, because you've seen how they play. They've been
a turnover machine on offense, can't block, can't tackle on defense,
and uh, you know the Sharps are looking at that
and saying, yeah, they can't. They can't operate in those
fastest of the game, and that's why they're betting the Falcons.
Speaker 5 (29:51):
All right, here's Lamar Mitchell brother. We appreciate you all
ways on weekend.
Speaker 2 (29:56):
Thank you man.

Well, let me just say this, Rob. If we're gonna

Speaker 4 (31:44):
I didn't get here, all right, I didn't get into
the janitorial staff. Under the I didn't get here.
Speaker 3 (31:52):
It's a case of I didn't get in till three thirty.
Speaker 4 (31:55):
Robed Jeeves, you gotta wear this owl.
Speaker 6 (31:57):
And I know you you gotta take this out on
the I know, why are you throwing out good food?
It's no is that about good food? It was in
there we usually throw stuff out.
Speaker 4 (32:07):
Mary mad food in there by other people.
Speaker 1 (32:10):
How did they determine that they kept some stuff in
there and threw other stuff out? It looked at my
brand new big ZD which I paid over ten dollars for.
And I'll probably require myself to sleep tonight because ten
dollars went to waste.
Speaker 2 (32:26):
Rob.
Speaker 5 (32:26):
Here's the thing, though you've been here eight years, did
you claim, Rob claim?
Speaker 2 (32:31):
I mean assume that this is something weekly.
Speaker 6 (32:35):
Well, you actually know it just got implemented like maybe
a month because.
Speaker 4 (32:41):
Rob Parker would leave his bag. He was like three
weeks into it.
Speaker 6 (32:47):
There was some old chicken bones, all chicken wings, and
that's why it was.
Speaker 4 (32:52):
They weren't mine. Legend I'm putting in. Let's ask I
was Sam if they were yours or not?
Speaker 2 (32:58):
You?
Speaker 1 (32:59):
I bet you ie with Sam came back and and
and went home, came back and then threw my ZD
out and then went back home. That's what I think.
I'm not even gonna blame Caesar. I'm gonna blame Iowa
Sam without.
Speaker 6 (33:13):
He's actually in the back studio, so he want to
you know, Jake, Paul look and Paul.
Speaker 4 (33:19):
About he's in the back studio. Iowa Sam is here.
Speaker 6 (33:22):
He's here.
Speaker 1 (33:22):
There's no doubt my mind. Sam threw it out? Rob
g who threw it out? Caesar or Iowa Sam?
Speaker 4 (33:30):
If I'd have been understand I was Sam. He's done
it before. He likes to clean out.
Speaker 1 (33:38):
I have my bag in there once and he was like, hey,
you know you have a bag in there.
Speaker 4 (33:41):
I said, yes, and there's iced tea in there.
Speaker 6 (33:44):
Yes, but you had a bag of iced tea. I
would have thrown it out too. That's have a cup.
Come on, how did you have it? All Right, we
gotta get the NFL picks game, but I do.
Speaker 5 (33:54):
I'm glad we all came in conclusion that you should
have did better with your bazy. You should have treasured
it and prized it and did better.
Speaker 1 (34:00):
Man, I'm gonna put in a bag there, said don't
throw my food out there any circumstance and put there you.
Speaker 5 (34:06):

Speaker 3 (34:11):
It already, retire.
Speaker 9 (34:21):

Speaker 4 (34:25):

got him on Friday morning. This sh shifted, but we're
gonna stick with what we got this morning. Here we go,
Chargers one and a half point road favorites in Cleveland
against famous Jamis and the Browns.
Speaker 4 (34:57):
Rob Parker, I'm going with the Browns. I'm sorry.
Speaker 1 (35:00):
I mean Jamis Winston is a good quarterback, and if
he's not throwing interceptions, he's a really good quarterback. I
think they build off of that win last week. That
was a big time win over the Ravens. What's it
out of game?
Speaker 9 (35:13):
Rob?
Speaker 4 (35:15):
One and a half?
Speaker 5 (35:18):
Yeah, give me the I think Jamis is onto something.
Hes gonna throw a couple of interceptions, but he gonna
throw a couple of times, and I was as well,
give me Jamis, Give me the Browns.
Speaker 2 (35:23):
Maybe they feeling good. They got something going with him
at the QB.
Speaker 9 (35:25):
Now, all right, Game number two two is return to
Buffalo Bill's six point home favorites k dub.
Speaker 5 (35:34):
Ah Bills.
Speaker 2 (35:37):
Yeah, I wanted to.
Speaker 5 (35:38):
I wanted to go, you know, because I think two
in the team the dolphense might get to Roland. But
at the end of the day, Josh Allen's playing great
and he hasn't thrown a touchdown, I mean an interception.
Speaker 1 (35:49):
Yeah, it's hard. I really want to take the Dolphins
as well.
Speaker 2 (35:52):
I know I want to, but but I.
Speaker 1 (35:54):
Don't think so. I think that the Bills will they
win by seven. I think they will because it's six, right, yep.
I'll take the Bills minus six. Guys are on the
same page. Game Uber three, Jags out the Eagles.
Speaker 9 (36:06):
The new look Eagles Philadelphia seven and a half point
home favorites.
Speaker 4 (36:10):
Rob Parker.
Speaker 1 (36:11):
I'm gonna take the Jags. That they lose the Jags,
but they but they covered at seven and a half.
Speaker 2 (36:21):
Give me it again.
Speaker 4 (36:23):
Eagles seven and a half point home favorite against Jacksonville.
Speaker 5 (36:25):
Yeah, give me give me the Eagles. They're in a
row right now. We talked about it too. I think
that the offense is starting to pick up. Jalen Hurts
are starting to look like the Jalen Hurts we thought
he was. Give me Jalen Hurst. They keep going, they
keep rolling. It start to put a little scared in
the NFC, all right.
Speaker 9 (36:38):
Last two or Quick Lions two and a half point
road favorites in Green Bay Lions green Bay six and
one when they're underdogs at home with the points.
Speaker 4 (36:48):
I'm with the Sharp, so I'm gonna take Green Bay
all right.
Speaker 9 (36:51):
Last one Joe Flacco and the Colts in Minnesota against
the Vikings Minnesota five and a half point home favorites.
Speaker 1 (36:56):
Rob Parker, Minnesota's fading lost two in a row after
that five and oh start.
Speaker 4 (37:02):
I'm gonna go with Flight, go to old Man.
Speaker 5 (37:05):
I want to do that too, because I think with
him and Taylor, but I'm gonna go with the Vikings.
Speaker 2 (37:09):
They write the ship.
Speaker 5 (37:10):
The defense is too much in a competitive game, but
the Vikings win.
Speaker 2 (37:13):
That's why.
Speaker 4 (37:14):
That's how we can pick off man Man. Have a
great weekend, enjoy the weekend.
