That's a cool story. However, the biggest storyline of the year,
any part of the NFL de Lanny Walker goes six
and oh last week. He goes six and oh undefeated
last week since week sixteen. Waits, wait, what is this?
You said he was week one week ten. He's thirty

(00:42):
four and thirteen since week ten. I thought we wrote
that down somewhere. Doesn't matter. Clay Matthews moneyline. Matthews was
doing so great, he was killing Who's moving the line?
All of a sudden he started to dispart. It's very turbulent.
And his family and then will Compton three and three,
He's at the bottom of the list. He's saying his
family is sick. He's saying he's take care of the boy.
I think it has a lot to do with being
that fourth place. It's been a great show for you today.

(01:03):
It is myself, Clay Matthews, and Delaney the mule Walker

forth with myself William. The holiday season, Fandel is bringing
people together in a way that makes every parlay feel
more festive. It's called Past the leg My Turn. Here's
how it works. Start a group build, add your pick,
and then pass it to your friends so that they
can add theirs. When everyone's done, you each lock in

is better when it's played and bet together. And to
make it even better, everyone gets a thirty percent profit
boost to build to use on their build back to me. So,
whether you're backing your team, tailing your buddies, or trying
to prove who really knows ball, Pass the Leg is
your new way to play this holiday season. Back to William,

action with Past the Leg only on Fandle and only

do is we're gonna cook up a little Christmas Day
Past the Leg parlay for you guys. Make sure that
Pass the Leg with your friends and family only on

(02:53):
fandel and don't forget to use your thirty percent Past
the Lay profit boost token. I will go first, and
then I'll arill off Williams. I've got R. J. Harvey
running back Broncos they are playing the Chiefs. Chiefs have
clearly packed it in. William is going ceedee lamb against
the Commanders. Had some scrambled eggs a couple of weeks ago.

(03:13):
He's back he's feeling nice. Commanders, do any where are
you headed?

Speaker 2 (03:17):
Well, I'll take that leg and I'm going Jamire Gibbs
NICs versus the Vikings, and I'm going to pass that
leg to Clay.

Speaker 3 (03:25):
I got Jay jettis justin Jefferson anytime touchdown against the Lions.

Speaker 1 (03:31):
That's beautiful. If you like that parlay, if you feel it,
you're a little nervous bout passing your on parlay with
your friends, and you're you're knowing yourself as you watch
us every single week. Hey, the boys actually hit on there.
Bet the boys parlay last week. Rat of applause for that.
You're thinking these boys might be hot. They might be
fining this parlay that we just put together. It's plus
and forty. That feels nice. That feels like something that

(03:54):
Clay tells you how a Thursday night stream and you
go that sucker can hit, ain't it? That sucker can
go a lot of things go over there, bust people
a lot of games. But we're not gonna look past
the Landy Walker and this fitty's got on today? What's uh?
What's going on?

Speaker 3 (04:10):
You know?

Speaker 2 (04:10):
Man, I was sitting at the house, you know, watching
the games, just watching those check check check check, and
I'm like, damn, looks like I'm about to go six,
you know. So I put on a hundred waters blanket
me and I sat there, no free shot outs, no

(04:33):
free shoutouts, and I'll start thinking about previous weeks when
I was down, but I wasn't out. The noise was
getting loud. People sitting on the side of me. You're
too slow, you're too fat. We're gonna put you in
the crowd. I ain't let the noise get to me.
I put my head down and I grind. And you

(04:56):
want to know why I have on a fatigue, because
that's what dare hunters do. They put their head down,
they don't make a noise, and they wait for that
eight point buck to walk by, and when you get
that thing lined up in them scopes, you pull the trigger.
And that's what I did. I pulled the trigger. How
many times I may be doing this five times in

(05:19):
a row. But the gloria to it all is I
never gave up. I canceled out the noise. I put
my head down and I grind. Yeah, because I saw
greatness on the other side. And if you need help
with greatness, you find that greatness. I know it ain't easy.
It's tough. It's hard to find somebody to look up to.

(05:39):
So I'm gonna take a page out of Clay Matthews book, because,
like I said, it's hard to find greatness.

Speaker 1 (05:45):
We had a gift.

Speaker 2 (05:47):
It's hard to find greatness.

Speaker 1 (05:49):
Your flower's got a grill.

Speaker 2 (05:50):
Yeah, it is hard to find greatness. So I thought
I will give these guys an action figure kom fud rip.
Yeah myself.

Speaker 1 (06:01):
Is that a real sentence?

Speaker 2 (06:03):
Sign signed in everything right? Because when they look to this,
they'll know what greatness look like.

Speaker 3 (06:10):
Oh this is fantastic.

Speaker 1 (06:11):

Speaker 3 (06:36):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (06:36):

Speaker 1 (06:36):
I can pop this. By the way, you should you
pull the trigger five times, you pull the trigger six.

Speaker 2 (06:39):
Times, six times, and no one ever. No.

Speaker 1 (06:41):
I love the fact that you correlated deer hunting with grinding.
No one ever does, No one.

Speaker 2 (06:47):
Ever does this is it is a tough sport. Okay,
it's oh you hunt for sport. Yeah, I hunt for sport.

Speaker 1 (06:53):

Speaker 3 (07:29):
Any gang affiliation.

Speaker 1 (07:30):
We don't love. I love more than anything. Your speech
is incredible, but you refer to this as an action
figure the whole thing clearly. Clearly, dude, that is that
is awesome. God damn I love it.

Speaker 3 (07:48):
Yeah yeah, yeah, great speech, great action figure.

Speaker 1 (07:52):
We can start to show up given better. Well, Clay,
you listen to and fourth, Hey, money line, Matthews, you
had a song come out about you. People are now
whispering that you've drinking the kool aid a little bit.
You went off that one week and you decided to
change the entire program of the show. Some people didn't
like it, and you some people one people, some people,

(08:16):
some people, some people. There's got to be another one
out there, right, which would make it some you're doing this, Yeah,
it's kind of it's well, hold on, we gotta we
got to write the ship here.

Speaker 3 (08:26):
Hold on, hey, we are we talking about that juicy,
succulent Christmas fifteen leg parlay I put on Thursday Nights
Ram Seahawks game because I hit buddy, you did feel on.

Speaker 1 (08:43):
The Thursday night game last week, the last stream of
the year. You came in with fifteen, and you made
everybody write it up, checking boxes, checking your phone. I
think your phone died. That's how many times you checked
your phone.

Speaker 3 (08:54):
Because I knew it.

Speaker 1 (08:54):
You knew it.

Speaker 3 (08:55):
I knew. I know we can't guarantee, can't, but I
guaranteed it was gonna hit.

Speaker 1 (09:00):
It does. That was out the camera and it was
off the record.

Speaker 3 (09:03):
You did guarantee, but to your point two and four right,
not up to the stairs to show. But they don't
call me money line for no reason. I put one
money line on an underdog last week one and oh,
so what I'm realizing is the spreads are for chumps. Okay,

(09:23):
all we gotta get back to the money line way
okay because telling me like, don't bend the need of tailor.

Speaker 1 (09:32):
Yeah, don't ban because I'm out there.

Speaker 3 (09:34):
Or you're just like spread this, spread that, right, and
I'm like mL this.

Speaker 1 (09:43):
Listen, you got a song for a reason. If we
want to play it for two seconds, were more than welcome.

Speaker 3 (09:47):
To MLK money Line King. We were going with this.
There's two MLK.

Speaker 1 (09:59):
Jamie Fox Will Smith.

Speaker 3 (10:01):
But listen, before we're gonna we're gonna a we play
off each other. Real nice guys. Six and oh he
took a little something for me. You know what I'm
gonna take from him, the juice because he's going six
and oh, I'm just hoping for a little touch of that.
I can break five hundred to be a great week,
but we're gonna aspire for great, greater things five and
one this week maybe six and oh, so let's get

(10:22):
started with this Christmas rapid fire. Six.

Speaker 1 (10:26):
All right, Jeremy Club is gonna run us through rapid
fire real quick. He's gonna say the game, the line
and the total, and we're just gonna answer what our
answer is.

Speaker 4 (10:34):
Yes, sir, Cowboys at Commanders Cowboys minus seven, Commanders plus
seven over under fifty and a.

Speaker 1 (10:40):
Half, Commanders plus seven.

Speaker 3 (10:46):
Give me the Cowboys money line right here. Tough divisional game.
You already know it's gonna be closer than most people think.

Speaker 2 (10:53):
Cowboys minus five and a half.

Speaker 3 (10:56):
I love it.

Speaker 4 (10:57):
And Will Compton has the Commanders plus seven. Next game,
we have Lions at Vikings, Lions minus five and a half,
Vikings plus five and a half over under forty four
and a half.

Speaker 1 (11:08):
Give me the Lions minus two and a half.

Speaker 2 (11:12):
Lions minus five and a half.

Speaker 3 (11:17):
JJ McCarthy in the Vikings money line here.

Speaker 1 (11:22):
Wow, Jeffer said we should have saw it coming.

Speaker 2 (11:25):
But JJ may not play.

Speaker 3 (11:28):
McCarthy. Yeah, I heard the X ray said it was negative.

Speaker 1 (11:32):
Okay, Now it's a toughness thing.

Speaker 2 (11:34):
Yeah, yeah, we know that's gonna play. Maybe I should
change my lotay is you good? I just wanted to
make sure you knew he may not play.

Speaker 4 (11:42):
Will has Lions minus five and a half there. And
then the last game on Christmas, we have Broncos at Chiefs.
Broncos minus twelve and a half, Chiefs plus twelve and
a half over under thirty six.

Speaker 3 (11:53):
And a half.

Speaker 1 (11:54):
Chiefs have truly packed it, And give me the Broncos
minus twelve and.

Speaker 3 (11:57):
A half, Give me the Broncos money line.

Speaker 2 (12:03):
Under thirty six and a half.

Speaker 3 (12:05):
Whoa under and.

Speaker 4 (12:06):
Will Compton is also taking the under thirty six and
a half. Broncos money line is crazy.

Speaker 1 (12:13):
Bronco's money line is great.

Speaker 3 (12:14):
What is that?

Speaker 2 (12:16):
No? You parlay those three?

Speaker 3 (12:17):
You parlay those three, It's a Christmas miracle's.

Speaker 4 (12:24):
Money line Broncos I can't even read it. Bronco's money
line is minus one thousand.

Speaker 1 (12:31):
That's okay. You parlay those things up. You might have
minus four hundred. Hey, easy money, right, can't guarantee that's
not a guarant can't guarantee it. Easy woo. That Vikings
money lines would really.

Speaker 2 (12:46):
Sent you off.

Speaker 3 (12:47):
Sometimes you just gotta take a chance and line.

Speaker 1 (12:49):
Sometimes you do.

Speaker 3 (12:50):
It's like Philip Rivers said, you got I don't You
don't know what's gonna happen, Right, you got to put
yourself out there. And I'm scared a little bit. I'm scared,
but I'm gonna go after it.

Speaker 1 (12:59):
Fears like fire. I want to use it the correct way.
You can keep yourself warm, you can cook. You let
it get out of control. That's how wild fires start,
you know, ye rising delay. We said before the show,
every single game you're gonna start off.

Speaker 2 (13:17):
Let's do it.

Speaker 5 (13:17):
And if you want to taste something good, Form Energy
Form Energy delivers best in class taste with natural flavors
and zero sugar. Form Energy has natural caffeine derived from
green tea. Form comes in a variety of flavors available
in Screaming Freedom, Great Smashed, Blue, Blitz, Orange Fury. Perfect
for those who put in the work. So if you're
somebody who wakes up in the morning, gets their hustle on,

(13:38):
gets a workout in full day of work, still gives
it their own when they come home, you are a
Form Energy guy.

Speaker 1 (13:42):
Form Energy. We do the work back to the episode.
So the first game is Ravens at Packers. Packers are
minus two and a half. Total points in that game
is forty and a half points.

Speaker 2 (13:53):
So y'all know how I feel about the Packers, right, how.

Speaker 1 (13:55):
Do you feel about the Packers? Just for clarity, if
there's somebody watching over the first time.

Speaker 3 (13:59):
The Packers do not play well on the road. And
my man six and zero he called it, and he
just said it.

Speaker 2 (14:07):
They do not play well on the road, but they
are at home against the Ravens who.

Speaker 5 (14:11):
Do not run.

Speaker 2 (14:12):
Derrick Henry and those. The only thing about this one
is Malik. Who is Malik going to be? If we
don't get Jordan Love, who will Malik be? We saw
Malik make some great plasses last week, and I'm going
to ride on this guy. I'm going to ride on
him because he is a Titan and I believe in
him as a tightening. I'm going to believe in him

(14:32):
as a Packer. So either or Malik or Jordan Love
starts on taking the Packers, taking the Packers two and
a half.

Speaker 3 (14:43):
Can we just talk about before we move on, just
to put you know, a flower in the grave for
the Packers real quick and Hairs lost last week. I
mean it's tough. That was a tough game. They they
they the Packers. We squandered such a great performance for
what they had to overcome. I mean, no, Micah, Jordan

(15:06):
Love gets hurt early in the game. Eleak Davis throws
a thirty three yard dark Dobs. I believe like they
just look so good in an on side kick. Just
swat that thing out of bounds. You needed a you know,
a coach mark, Yes, like just squatted out of bounds
and then that passed. I mean it was It was

(15:26):
fun to watch as a van. But then the noise,
you know, the mansion started lighting up because I put
it out there before the season. I'm hoping the Packers
and Bears playing in the playoffs because that'll be fire.
I just want to remind you boys of the year
twenty ten Packers went on the road to Soldier Field

(15:48):
about fifteen years ago. Yeah, it's relevant. Fail to study history,
are doomed to repeat it. Packers couple lose at Soldier
Field last second field go was tough. The boys were down.
They win Week seventeen against the Chicago Bears to make
the playoffs as the sixth seed. They go on the

(16:10):
road versus the Philadelphia Eagles and Michael Vick dub. They
go on the rovers the fourteen and two Atlanta Falcons
in the Georgia Dome dub and who do they see
again in the NFC Championship game at Soldier Field. The
Chicago Bears, led by Clay Matthews and that Packers defense
a rod In the offense. We went in there, we

(16:33):
got the dub all the way to Super Bowl XLB.
It's destined to happen again. Boys, they split the season series,
they're gonna have to play again in Soldier Field. Put
it on your calendars, boys, NFC Championship game at Soldier Field,
Bears with the win to the Super Bowl.

Speaker 2 (16:51):
Can I ask you a question, yes, sir?

Speaker 1 (16:53):
Do you find it kind of interesting that Aaron Rodgers
says I owned the Bears and because Aaron Rodgers won
a game with the Steelers, the Bears a spot in
the playoffs.

Speaker 3 (17:01):
Yep, poetry, and now it's poetry who they play the Lions.
He just he owns everybody, everybody as long as he's playing.
He just talking shit, talking about being forty two years
old outrunning buddy to your sideline. I loved it because
I say, Roight, that's what he is. He's having fun
throwing darts. But I digress here. I like the Packers too,

(17:23):
coming back home. Is Lamar gonna play dere Derek Henry
did have some success last week running the ball, but
I'm a lower their backup play Huntley. Yeah, he played
well as well. But I like the Packers here, they've
got more on the line. I think the Ravens season
is over. I wouldn't be surprised if they faced a
little adversity and they decided, hey, you know what, let's

(17:43):
get him next year. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (17:45):
Yeah, the Ravens when they played the Patriots, the biggest
stick away was like, you should have probably used Derek
Henry more. He was going off one hundred and twenty
eight yards and two touchdowns, best performance since Week one.
And so I look at the Ravens and like you're
you're clearly looking at a guy who's older. He's not
what he once was, but he is still very He's
his ability to break away runs, to wear you down,

(18:06):
and he's a cat. The more you give him the ball,
the better he's going to be throughout the game, and
they can lean on that versus a backup quarterback. I
am going to go with the Packers here. Big Malik
Willis fan. I was kind of Malik Willis hater for
a little bit because I remember being in the huddle
with him a couple of times. Kat didn't know his
plays at all. He would just kind of he would
go cowboy a lot of times, just randomly. You didn't
know what was going on. He goes to the Packers

(18:28):
completely has the Resurgers in his career. He's two and
zero as a starter when he has to come in
for Jordan Love every time he does come in. Now
it seems like he knows what he's doing is with
the checks R. He understands coverages, all those types of things.
I like the Packers in December. I like the Packers
at home in December. I like the Packers at home
in December in primetime games because there's six and oh

(18:48):
so I will be taking the Packers in this game.

Speaker 3 (18:50):
Would you say Malik Willis is the real life Jamie
Foxx in any given Sunday. Ooh, he comes in, he's
got that, he's not paying attention. He's vomiting all over
the Titans. H they get rid of me. He goes
to a new team and now he's you know that
montage or that scene where the ball goes up in there. Oh,
you'll play it while this is going on, and it's

(19:12):
a montage. They catch it over and then they win
a couple of games, and he's all the Sharks are
like this, maybe you need to be watch.

Speaker 1 (19:18):
Have you ever seen that movie, Taylor, I've not seen
that movie.

Speaker 3 (19:20):
Really, what I have not seen that movie?

Speaker 1 (19:22):
Oh? I have seen that speech.

Speaker 3 (19:27):
No, not the speech. The speech is great. I'm in
the speech the montage people.

Speaker 1 (19:33):
Late nights on a Saturday before noon kickoff game and
I hit that speech on YouTube. I'm just double chinned
up nude in a hotel bed watching and they're like,
it really is a fucking game of inches. Man, Tomorrow,
I'm gonna find that inch, not you down there, but
on the field.

Speaker 3 (19:48):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (19:49):
So I haven't seen the.

Speaker 3 (19:49):
Game, check it out, and then let's let's discuss it.

Speaker 1 (19:52):
The thing that makes me know where did it will go?

Speaker 4 (19:54):
Will is Packers minus two and a half.

Speaker 1 (19:56):
That makes me sick and want to go Ravens. I know,
but does lightning really strike twice right in the backs?
Delating went six? And oh, I agree. The lady's on
chat GBT right now figuring out what his next picking
the game. Texas at Chargers notes craz Chargers. Chargers are

(20:18):
favorite minus one and a half at home. The twelve
points in the game is thirty nine and a half.

Speaker 3 (20:23):
What are you thinking, big doll?

Speaker 1 (20:24):
They indeed, what are we thinking?

Speaker 3 (20:26):
Man?

Speaker 2 (20:27):
This is a This is a tough one because the
Texas I want to say, the Texans, what is on
a six game winning streak right now? Six games? But
the Chargers is also on a four game winning streak,
right is it?

Speaker 3 (20:38):
Four?

Speaker 2 (20:39):
Six game streak?

Speaker 3 (20:40):
So hot?

Speaker 2 (20:41):
Both teams are hot right now, Both teams are hot.
The stakes are for Texas is to win the AFC South,
So this is big for them. They got to come out,
They gotta shine. The Chargers already clinched the playoffs, they're
trying to be the division leaders. It's going to be
a big game this week. With that being said, who
should I lean know? Who do I know the best?

(21:01):
I know Jim Harball. I know he's gonna get that
team right.

Speaker 1 (21:04):
I know g Row.

Speaker 2 (21:05):
I know they're getting everything going with that offense. And
then your boy for the defense, Tuley, No, no, the
defensive coordinator, Jesse Mentor. This is a an interview for
him to be a head coach somewhere else. This boy
needs maybe Michigan, who knows, No, No, he ain't going
back there.

Speaker 1 (21:25):
That's too much going on.

Speaker 2 (21:26):
Yeah, there's too much going on.

Speaker 1 (21:29):
Great, great there, he would do great?

Speaker 2 (21:31):
You do great?

Speaker 3 (21:31):
You do great? There.

Speaker 2 (21:32):
I think that NFL money, though, I think he want
a little bit of that. So with that being said,
Chargers is going to beat the Texas. I'm taking the Chargers, man.
I love it minus one and a half.

Speaker 3 (21:45):
I'm telling my boy over here. The last couple of weeks,
for whatever reason, the Chargers have been the underdogs. I've
been taking money line after money line on the Chargers
and they've been hitting. And I like him so much
that I'm gonna take the spread at minus oneing. I'm
gonna be a little bit interesting, be a little venturing,
just just for this game. I'll get back to the
money line.

Speaker 1 (22:03):
No matter what, You're gonna take it.

Speaker 3 (22:05):
This I'm gonna takes for chumps.

Speaker 1 (22:06):
But not in this game.

Speaker 3 (22:08):
You're right, we should go back to the money line here.
I was getting a little crazy.

Speaker 1 (22:12):
Right, you're feeling the energy of the room. I completely
get that. You want to fall back a little bit.
You're sure to take Chargers money.

Speaker 3 (22:17):
I mean it's only fifteen you know what, though, Now
I have that much confidence in Justin Herbert Harball. Hey
am I am? I am I? Right now? If they
win out, are they the number one seed?

Speaker 1 (22:27):
Yes?

Speaker 2 (22:28):
Yes, if they win they.

Speaker 1 (22:32):
That is kind of crazy.

Speaker 2 (22:33):
That's crazy.

Speaker 1 (22:34):
Like people keep talking about the NFC and how they're
just a gauntlet there, but there's a there's a handful
of teams are making the AFC. Yes, I think you
can have an argument for everybody in there except for
the Steelers.

Speaker 2 (22:43):
True, I don't know. I don't know.

Speaker 1 (22:46):
The defense is kind of cooking up a little bit,
but I don't know. They just booke them my heart
when I want to get my heart, like the Cowboys.
I kind of like this, I punt on them. I mean,
I'm an emotional cat, you know, why not Wondering the.

Speaker 2 (22:59):
Way the Steelers play without Watts. It's crazy though, Like
think about that.

Speaker 1 (23:03):
Yeah, no doubt. But okay, so Texans Chargers. Chargers all year,
what has been their biggest issue?

Speaker 3 (23:10):
Offensive line?

Speaker 1 (23:11):
Off They're two tackles, they've been injured all year. These
two defense ends, Daniel Hunter and Will Anderson. They are
going to hunt all day. And I love your boy, Herbert,
he is a top five quarterback.

Speaker 4 (23:23):
I agree.

Speaker 1 (23:24):
I'm on board with all of that. But both incredible defenses.
Look at Houston last week playing the Raiders. Two weeks ago,
the Raiders played at the Eagles, and it's like, yeah,
that's a good team playing the Raiders. They're putting up
points the way they should put up points. Texans were
it was weird for a while where it was kind
of close. They allowed them to score a couple of times.
Both these teams, I think offenses get absolutely deleted. So

(23:44):
I'm going to take the under a thirty nine and
a half.

Speaker 3 (23:48):
Texans only had nine points through the fourth quarter offensive points.
I should say. They had that Stingley interception. I thought
the route was on, but after that point, I mean,
it was a much closer game than I would have
ever tharted. That gives me casts for is their offense,
just like you had said. So I like the underbut it's.

Speaker 1 (24:04):
Been a question mark all year. Herbert is we're dealing
with some injuries. They're they're definitely getting the run game
going more. They're throwing the ball better. You have to
give him a lot of credit. But when you got
two tackles they're under a third and fourth tackle, Yeah,
that's when those two guys are just they're salivating, They're
just they cannot wait to get after Herbert. He's gonna
be He's gonna make some moves with his legs. But
then Nolan hit me with a weird stat about the Texans.

(24:25):
Texans defense has held their opponents to the lowest field
goal conversion percentage of sixty three point six, which I
don't know how that is even field goals. I know,
they just apparently the team, the teams they play, they're
holding the field goal kickers to sixty three point six percent.
So I'm looking at all this information I'm gathering, I'm like,
you know, I could definitely see Houston's defense completely canceling

(24:48):
out the Chargers offense and vice versa. We got a
low scoring game here, well, we had a boring one
on our hands. But I'm gonna take the Imak the under.

Speaker 2 (24:56):
But but you know, the Chargers kicker, he Isaker is
probably the best kicker point wise in the NFL right now.

Speaker 1 (25:03):
It's got to be Aubrey, right, Aubrey Aubrey for Aubrey
for the Cowboys. That motherfucker got me thirty points in
a week on Fantasy. How insane is that? And we
still lost kicker thirty points? This motherfucker dud uh delaney.

Speaker 4 (25:19):
It was Texans around a seven game win streak, Chargers
around a four game win streak.

Speaker 3 (25:23):
Will but if you averaging them out.

Speaker 4 (25:24):
It's like, you know, Will Compton is a big believer
of the Texans obviously, so he's going Texans money line.

Speaker 2 (25:31):
Oh boy, the Texans just scared me with that. The offenses.

Speaker 1 (25:35):
I know, it's kind of weird.

Speaker 3 (25:36):
It's weird.

Speaker 1 (25:37):
And to be fair to Will that he's got he's
got two kids and a wife at one hundred and three,
he doesn't know what, he didn't know where he is
Hi yesterday, bags under the eyes, breathing out of his
mouth the whole time we got going on here, Mondy.

Speaker 2 (25:49):
You don't go to New York in December. I'm telling you,
I know, but I'll tell you what.

Speaker 1 (25:53):
He had a nice little He had a nice reason
of like, I'm doing this for my family. Clearly I
don't want to go, but I think he's really set
them up for maybe not going to New York other
than for ESPN for the next year, because me, like, Dad,
why don't were gone? And he'll just pull up a
whole portfolio what happened in December of twenty.

Speaker 2 (26:09):
Five, especially the babies.

Speaker 1 (26:11):
Yeah baby, Yes, she's over one though, which is nice,
which is nice. Next game Seahawks at Panthers Seahawks are
favorite minus seven and.

Speaker 3 (26:21):
A half the land, and that line is crazy.

Speaker 1 (26:27):
You're going to overtime against the Rams and pulling it
out crazy two point conversion, couple points. That game is
forty two and a half away? Are you going, sir?

Speaker 3 (26:33):
See the thing?

Speaker 2 (26:34):
See every game right now scares me because you got
the Panthers.

Speaker 1 (26:38):
Don't be scared.

Speaker 2 (26:38):
The Panthers are a team you cannot count out. They
are a team that will come out and show up
and play as hard as they can into the last
fourth quarter of the game and usually come out on top.
But they are playing the Seahawks. The Seahawks may be
the best team in the NFC West as we know
for now. They have beat the Rams. That has set

(26:59):
them apart. They are playoff Uh, they already in the playoffs.
I think they got the number one seed. That the
it's their seed to lose, like Taylor said. But the
Panthers man the damn Panthers.

Speaker 3 (27:14):
So with all that being said, I love the intro.

Speaker 2 (27:18):
I am taking the Seahawks minus five and a half.

Speaker 1 (27:26):
Damn minus five and a half.

Speaker 2 (27:29):
Yeah, I love it.

Speaker 3 (27:31):
Yeah, Claire, I'm just you're right. You're right about the Panthers.
They're hanging around. We're looking for an excuse. Bryce Bryce
Young has continued to develop this year. I just feel
like the Buccaneers defense last week, and it took a
Baker Mayfield, you know, last second interception to seal that game.
The Seahawks different. Fuck, the Seahawks defense is different. A

(27:56):
lot of a lot of alliterations. So many these you
know I'm talking about right, so many these.

Speaker 1 (28:04):
Pattery's got low, damnster stopped in the wheel, He's backus.

Speaker 3 (28:10):
Is a different defense, the Seahawks defense. And I think
it's gonna be a long day for Bryce Young. So
I like the Seahawks money line here, Yeah.

Speaker 1 (28:19):
You like the team that's favored by seven and a
half money.

Speaker 3 (28:22):
Line, it's only minus three sixty.

Speaker 1 (28:24):
You're right, Parlay that, Parlay a couple of these.

Speaker 3 (28:27):
Right now, right now, these are as close to guarantees.
The Pack bouncing back against the injured Ravens, the Chargers
being the Chargers going out and getting this dub against
the Texans, and the Seahawks. Like I'm three and oh,
right now, what are we talking?

Speaker 1 (28:41):
Clearly? I like it are we talking? We are all
like EXCEP probably took an under in a game which
we can both win. We can both win. Bryce Young
six game winning drives the season is to most in
the NFL. He's having a Baker Mayfield type of surge
late in the season. I really like that about him.
This note has nothing to do with the game, but
think we should give Sam Donald a little bit of
credit here. Sam Donald is the only quarterback other than

(29:04):
who Tom Brady to win ten plus games in consecutive
seasons with different teams. So I mean in front of
the show, got to give him some love on that.
He's definitely resurrected his entire career. I look at the
Seahawks the game we watched fifteen late Parlay. I know
I'm drained by that. By you hitting that, it's like, well,
what a crazy hi. I can only imagine how the
Seahawks feel win that game and overtime getting a two

(29:25):
point conversion that was you know, if it's going lateral,
it's backwards. If it's backwards, it's backwards. I think it's
how Greg Olsen gave it to us on bustling the boys.
So everyone agrees that just you got to on a
defensive standpoint, you got to finish every single play, finish
with the ball in your hands of the balls on
the ground. Very emotional win for those guys after Sam Donald,

(29:46):
the last time those two teams played had foreign receptions.
What I'm getting at here is Seahawks up here, Panthers
are in this position when the NFC South right now,
they just beat Tampa Bay, but no one's really talking
about it. So I like the Seahawks playing a little
bit down this week and the Panthers play a little
bit up knowing they have Tampa Bay the following week,
the last game of the season. So I'm going to

(30:07):
be taking the Panthers plus seven and a half in
this game.

Speaker 3 (30:11):
I like it.

Speaker 2 (30:12):
You like that, I like it.

Speaker 1 (30:14):
But the thing in a boat. It's Christmas time, you know.

Speaker 3 (30:16):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (30:16):
I like I was gonna fuck with the Panthers, but
move the line at first.

Speaker 1 (30:20):
Yeah yeah, But you fucked with the Panthers by moving
the Seattle line. So you and I take the same thing,
I know.

Speaker 2 (30:25):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (30:27):
Will Compton is going with the over of forty two
and a half.

Speaker 2 (30:31):
I don't hate that, No, I don't.

Speaker 3 (30:32):
I don't hate that.

Speaker 4 (30:33):
We have Clay's Seahawks money line and Broncos money line
in a parlay and it's still only minus two forty seven.

Speaker 3 (30:40):
What Broncos are playing.

Speaker 4 (30:43):
Broncos money line for the rapid fires.

Speaker 3 (30:45):
Oh that's a separate that's a separate Christmas Day parlay. Yeah, yeah,
those three go together, they don't. They don't. We want
to run.

Speaker 1 (30:51):
When you woke up in the morning as a kid,
did you have just one president under the tree? No,
there'll probably be a couple, even if it one was
just a pair of socks. Right, you're you're right to
parlays paras soxes too. If we're getting crazy, that's crazy, right,
But yeah, okay, don't let it happen again.

Speaker 3 (31:06):
Plump, all right, trying to conduct the show here, trying to.

Speaker 1 (31:09):
Conduct the show here, getting you on. Sorry, Clump has
been doing that way. We apologize, Uh, Delanny Jaguars good, Yeah,
if you want to take that.

Speaker 2 (31:19):
No, I was looking at my notes chat jbt No, bro,
you see chat gbt O.

Speaker 1 (31:23):
You had it on last week.

Speaker 3 (31:25):
No, I did this obviously, it's right though. Yeah, you
do what you gotta do.

Speaker 2 (31:31):
Yeah, yeah, I'm looking. I did have chat jbt O.

Speaker 1 (31:34):
Alright, let's talk about the Jaguars. They're at the Colts
Philip Rivers started dising up the forty nine ers early
in the game minute falling off late. Jaguars are favored
minus six and a half. Total points in the game
is forty seven and a half? What do you have
for us? Delanny Walker?

Speaker 2 (31:49):
So I'm looking at I'm possibly looking at taking these Jags. Man,
These Jaguars right now are probably second to the hottest
team and a FC South behind the Texans. That's what
That's what I'm saying. The Colts.

Speaker 3 (32:06):
I think. I mean, I I don't mean that Aways
say Texans just squeaked by the Raiders, whereas the Jaguars
went on the road and beat the eleven consecutive win
Broncos too. I mean, we're talking about who's hot and
who's not.

Speaker 2 (32:22):
Who you think hotter?

Speaker 3 (32:24):
I was just saying, Jaguars rolling, and you see the Colts.

Speaker 2 (32:28):
Man, you see the Colts. You got Rivers out there.
And kudos to Rivers to go out there to play
the game. He's playing having doing what he's doing. I
am happy for him. The only thing that threw me
off about Rivers was to see on his chest too big.

Speaker 3 (32:43):
He had the captains, but brother, they there's no one
on that offense outside of well, no, there is they
got back running back.

Speaker 1 (32:50):
You're right, Quentin, I.

Speaker 4 (32:51):
Don't think it was a captain patch. I think every
player on the Colts had a see for the Colts
on the left side of their chest.

Speaker 2 (32:56):
I thought the same argument, Hey, well what that been said?
Since I was wrong, I'm taking Jaguars mm hmm. And
y'all know I gotta move in line just because the
move it up missing. Wait, hold on real quick before
before you give this, I just some go ahead. It's
Philip Rivers finishing out the season. I think the competitor
that he is, he's gonna want to see it through.

(33:18):
Or did they go with Buddy I don't even know
his name. Yeah, who stepped in last night from Notre Dame.
I think that's huge. He played last night at the end, Yeah,
at the very end.

Speaker 3 (33:28):
But you know, because the Cults are all but out
of the playoffs here, Philip Rivers go back to Alabama
or that.

Speaker 1 (33:36):
Man that may.

Speaker 3 (33:38):
Beautiful beautiful? Yeah, I know, I'm still Have you been
through fair Hope?

Speaker 2 (33:43):
No gorgeous where he lived in Alabama?

Speaker 3 (33:47):
Yeah, I mean I don't mean to put in the floor. No,
I don't know he's got fant house. But I'm saying,
have you been through fair Hope? Beautiful? Beautiful anyway, I'm sorry,
So I'm sorry. Just something think about when you're gonna
move that line up to minus nine and a half.

Speaker 2 (34:02):
I was gonna move it to minus five and a
half this week every smart. It's just because look, I
don't know what the Coats. Yeah, the Jaguars are hot
right now, but you really don't know what the Coats
because the Coats was a really good team and then
they quarterback got hurt and then they fell off. So
they're still a good team. It's just that missing piece

(34:22):
of the quarterback whoever gets step in and make those
plays for them. I think the Coats can get back
on fire, but I'm just taking the Jags minus five
and a half just in case insurance.

Speaker 3 (34:34):
I like the Jags here as well. I love the
money line, but also I love moving that line as
well the Jaguars line. Yeah, because I get a little
a little nervous that they're gonna cover by more than
six and a half.

Speaker 1 (34:50):
Dude, I feel like I'm just like a hosting a
show and these two are just talking through the lines,
moving them back and forth.

Speaker 3 (34:56):
Hey, is what I'm gonna do if Buddy Boy plays
back up to Ley Leonard Win two Notre Dame right,
which just canceled their their rivalry with USC. Did you
hear that?

Speaker 1 (35:09):
What they could reach the agreement? Agreement on what money
extending the rivalry money?

Speaker 3 (35:13):
I think US wanted to play earlier in the year, and.

Speaker 1 (35:16):
There's something some sort of fine print. I don't know
if it's money or not. Usually is their names out.
I heard there was talking about Michigan as well, that
is now gone. And then one other big rivalry they
had they said, we're done with that too. All wise,
I'm making the playoffs every single name.

Speaker 2 (35:31):
Wait, so no more rivalry week you talking about for
these teams They don't want to play see anymore.

Speaker 3 (35:36):
Too difficult of a match, I heard? But yeah, I
mean maybe there's other reasons. Michigan too difficult. They just
want to get these plays and they want to play
like Central Missouri.

Speaker 1 (35:44):
Spot right now.

Speaker 2 (35:45):
Wait, they may just move USC to the Big.

Speaker 3 (35:47):
Ten, right, but it doesn't matter. They no, the name
is not in any conference, so they can play whomever
whoever they want.

Speaker 1 (35:53):
They choose whomever. So where you going?

Speaker 3 (35:56):
Five and a half Hey, what's his name? Riley Leonard?
If Riley Ard plays, give me the Jaguars minus nine
and a half? Oh you like you?

Speaker 1 (36:07):
I told you.

Speaker 3 (36:09):
Philip Rivers plays, just give me the Jaguars money line? Okay,
insurance policy, insurance.

Speaker 1 (36:17):
You took me on an absolute ride. He likes right
letter more than Philip Rivers. That as with the money line.

Speaker 3 (36:22):
Right after that, Yeah, it starts, it starts, Yeah.

Speaker 2 (36:29):
All right.

Speaker 1 (36:31):
The Jaguars are the hottest team in the AFC right now.
They're the only team to beat the different Broncos at
home this entire year. The Colts are in a very
scary predicament right now. They're about to make history first time.
As nineteen eighty five, a team starts eight and two
and may miss the playoffs. That team was the Raiders.
We said this on ESPN. People are saying, we don't
know balls sometimes. We talked about this early of how

(36:51):
the Colts feel like they're about to go on a skid.
Since that, since that claim was made on Get Up,
the skid has taking place. I'm gonna take the Jaguars.
I think they're the only cost for concern I have
is you're now the top dog you're up here. So
last week the Denver Broncos, they became the top dog
in all of the AFC. I started drinking the coolie
a little bit. Then they drop a little a to
the Jaguars. Now I'm looking around, who's my next girlfriend? Well,

(37:13):
that's the hottest girl in the room. Let me go
with the Jaguars a little bit. So that makes me
a little nervous. But the Colts were thereat. It's very
hard to start a skid. We've been on those teams
where it's like nothing and one thing is just not
don't go right. It never goes right. So I'll be
thinking of the Jaguars minus six and a half, minus
six and a half.

Speaker 4 (37:33):
Clump Will also has the Jags minus six and a half.

Speaker 1 (37:36):
All right, all right, game ball, de Landy Walker. The
Bears are playing the forty nine Ers at the forty
nine ers. Total points in that game is three and
it is fifty one and a half points, sir, Where
are we going?

Speaker 3 (37:54):
Great game, great game, great game, great projected, great game.

Speaker 2 (37:58):
Yeah, yept nine ers didn't let me down. Monday night
did not let me down. I was waiting on that
leg just to hit that six and oh Christian McCaffrey.

Speaker 1 (38:10):
Did you know, did you know that you were on
the cusp of greatness?

Speaker 2 (38:15):
Yes? I smelled it. So with the forty nine ers
man doing what they had to do, taking care of business,
they have a short week, a short week to turn
around against a Bears team.

Speaker 3 (38:30):
Yes.

Speaker 2 (38:31):
Is the Bears offense as good as they could be?

Speaker 1 (38:34):
Maybe? Not?

Speaker 2 (38:35):
Is that defense taking away those balls?

Speaker 1 (38:37):
Are they number one in.

Speaker 2 (38:38):
The NFL for takeaways?

Speaker 3 (38:40):
Yes?

Speaker 2 (38:40):
They are? Well they have will the forty nine ers
have one of their best receivering threats. We don't know yet.
We're still waiting to see what Kittle was going through
with injursy he.

Speaker 3 (38:49):
Is dealing with.

Speaker 2 (38:51):
So with that being said, if Kittle plays, I will
take the forty nine Ers. If Kittle don't play, I'm
taking the Bears, and I'm moving that line till seven
and a half.

Speaker 3 (39:06):
Bears plus seven and a plus seven and a half.

Speaker 1 (39:10):
So Kittle is worth negative four points seal they have
four and a half points.

Speaker 3 (39:14):
Yep.

Speaker 2 (39:15):
Okay, he the only red his own threat if he
if he's not in the game, CMC, I mean Christ McCaffrey.

Speaker 1 (39:23):
Hetty through five touchdowns yesterday.

Speaker 2 (39:25):
Christ McCaffrey is a beast when it comes to that.
But I'm talking about when you need somebody to take
people the heat off certain people. Kittle is that guy.
You're gonna have two dudes on him regardless. That's gonna
leave somebody open. We know how good the Bears defense
get get takeaways. If he's not out there, trust me,
they them boys is gonna be licking their chops.

Speaker 3 (39:45):
I think the forty nine Ers obviously have a lot
to play for. We talked about the Chargers winning out
and be the number one seed. The forty nine Ers
are in the same position. If they went out these
next two games against all odds, they will be the
number one seed. Have a buye and guess where the
super this year is Santa Clara, so they could have
a home game throughout the playoffs. Excuse me. The Bears

(40:09):
amazing victory obviously a lot of momentum. Looked electric there
at Soldier Field, But I'm not sold on their offense.
You had the Packers defense had him bottled up all night.
The time they really got in troubles when the Packers
couldn't generate any pass rush. And there's not a team
that's hotter on offense right now. Offense that is, in
the forty nine ers, we saw brock Purty throw for
five touchdowns. Even if Kittle doesn't play, they were still

(40:29):
just mixing around. Juwan Jennings, you name it, Tanjas McCaffrey.
I like the forty nine ers to win here, I
like them to cover. Give me forty nine ers minus three.

Speaker 1 (40:39):
Yeah, I like all that. I will be doing the
forty nine ers as well. Interesting season storyland the forty
nine ers have had brock Purty starts early in the season.
Clearly he sids that two hundred and whatever million dollar contract.
He goes out. Mac Jones comes in. Mac Jones does
a phenomenal job against big time people, teams like the Rams.
Conversations start to happen. Should mac Jones be the starter

(41:03):
win brock perties healthy? I thought it was a ridiculous claim. However,
that was the narrative that was taking place. You called
mac Jones earlier in the year. This cat's a yeah,
he's a dude. He's made himself a lot of money.
He's sitting there, happy and healthy on the sideline right now,
while as boy brock pertys throwing five touchdowns in the
game just last night because we're filming this on a Tuesday.
Bears do have the second most yards per game as
an offense. I think Ben Johnson really needs to be

(41:24):
looked at for Coach the Year. I think there's a
couple of coaches in front of him, including the one
that he's about to play this one, Kyle Shanahan. When
you look at the forty nine Ers, not just this season,
but the last couple of seasons, it's this team is contending.
They have all the talent in the world on offense
and defense. They get injured, they fall apart towards the
end of the season, and then it's over for them,
and that's kind of been the last few years. This year,

(41:45):
they obviously had a lot of key injuries with Fred
Warner and Nick Bosa going down on the defensive side
of the ball, but Robert saul Of the defensive coordinator,
all he doesn't flinch at any of those things. The
pass rush isn't as good, but the defense in the
back end has been has stepped up in a whole
lot better. And on the offensive side of the ball,
you got Trent and going down early. You had a
bunch of receivers going down early, George Kittle going down.

(42:06):
But now this offense is starting to get healthy, including
Brock Party. Then I sit back and reflect on, what's
your relationship like the forty nine ers, obviously CMC front
of the show, George Kittle friend of the show, Rock
Purty friend of the show. And then I linger on
that name Brock Purty a little bit, and I have
thinking back to a couple of years ago. I'm fresh
out of the league, trying to find my way. I'm
on k Adams show. She's begging me for hot takes

(42:27):
over and over again. I'm uncomfortable because these are kind
of my guys. I'm not really out of it as
much as I should be, but I am kind of
out of it now. So should I bury the boys?
Should I not be the boy? I'm kind of this
back and forth a little bit. I end up getting
some intel from somebody saying, hey, brock Perty is not
the guy. He's just as aliens around him. I like
a dumb ass, take that message, say I got this,
don't shoot the messenger. This is just what I was told.

(42:48):
They go to the super Bowl that year, they don't win,
but they go to the super that year on the
back of Rock Party. All those reasons, That entire story
rounds me out to where we started, which is forty
nine ers minus three. That's where I said, don't doubt.
I've already been proven wrong too many times to the
point I have to be like, yeah, the forty nine
ers are going to get it done. I can't take
that many lastics.

Speaker 4 (43:07):
Yeah, you know, Will took the over fifty one and
a half in that game.

Speaker 1 (43:13):
Good pick. That a good pick. Yeah, the boy, I
hope he's seeing straight. I think he's solutionating a little bit,
but I like that pick. All right, This is second,
the last game before the true classic game of the week, Len,
I feel like you've been on pointing today. Rams at Falcons.
The Rams are favored minus eight and a half two
points forty nine and a half.

Speaker 2 (43:33):
So look, man, I've been in these shoes before. When
you're a team that's already in the playoffs and you
playing a team that has nothing to lose. I've been
on the team that had nothing to lose. Lost, But
what I'm saying lost every time you go out there
and you sit in that locker room and you say,
let's be the one to put the bad taste in

(43:55):
that team's mouth. Let's be the team they go out
there and smack them in the mouth.

Speaker 1 (43:59):
Yeah, with.

Speaker 3 (44:02):
The team.

Speaker 2 (44:05):
To make them defeat, right, and with every saying the
Falcons can be that team because the Rams, it's a
lot of noise outside of the building. You got families
getting arrested, Kat's posting stuff, going on Twit and joining
all these twitch is the twitch.

Speaker 1 (44:24):
Yeah, you refer to aid Ross him doing the anti semitic,
but he didn't know it was anti semitic, antim.

Speaker 2 (44:31):
Letting YouTubers get you to do things nationale.

Speaker 3 (44:37):
I made a career off that, that's all.

Speaker 1 (44:39):
But you hand, I love the fact.

Speaker 3 (44:42):
To be honest with you, I didn't know what I mean.

Speaker 1 (44:44):
I didn't know either. I didn't like to be fair
to Pookah unless somebody was like and they still did it,
that's one thing. But if someone was like, hey, rub
your hands.

Speaker 2 (44:53):
The same thing, I don't know.

Speaker 1 (44:54):
Yeah, because I don't know either.

Speaker 3 (44:56):
You know what's crazy is how much it bothered him
to so much that he had like ten receptions for
two hundred. I mean we should take a moment in
silence for him and hope that he bounces back, but
continue on with all these distractions.

Speaker 2 (45:08):
I'm just saying the distraction him trying to get aiding
in them in the locker room to do interviews during
this before the games. And I just think they already
feel like they're there right This can be a team
they may look over. I'm not saying they're gonna lose
this game, but I do not think they're going to
play the best they can play to their ability against
the Falcons, because this is a team they already looking past.

(45:29):
And I told y'all before sometimes good teams play to
the bad teams level. So with that be saying that
eight and a half is just too much. Guys out there,
if you are a mule or Jenny or a mule at,
you will know moving that line makes more sense. So
we're taking the Rams minus five and a half.

Speaker 1 (45:51):
You love five and a half, Clay, Yeah.

Speaker 3 (45:58):
I just think Kirkoh is just, you know, like you
don't know what you're gonna get on him. He's gonna
throw for three hundred and three tuds or he's gonna
lay an egg. But I think that offense goes through Bijon.
He had another incredible week. I don't know over one
hundred and fifty combined receiving he was the leading receiver
for the team. That just shows you, you know, how

(46:19):
much of the offense he is. But I like the Rams.
I think I think they got too much firepower. I
think despite their loss last week, would you just once
Rashid Shaheed had that pump return for a touchdown and
just kind of collapsed on them? But I think the Rams,
I mean, they still scored first in the playoffs like
or sorry India in overtime like they're still playing well.
I don't know if they have a chance to win

(46:42):
the NFL. I guess if Seattle loses, so they're still
very much in it. I think this is uh. I
agree with you that plus or minus eight and a
half is too much, So just give me the give
me the Rams money line here. I'm not gonna I'm
not gonna bother myself with spreads.

Speaker 1 (46:58):
No, I feel I agree with what you're saying. Is
like a lot of times some teams don't have, you know,
nothing to play for, so they want to ruin somebody
else's season. However, the Rams have a whole lot to
play for right now, and that's trying to take over
the NFC number one seed. Matthew Stafford, the no look passes,
He's playing at an MVP level. He's the front runner
right now. Sean McVay. His play calling is unbelievable. They
had two backs in the backfield that are running the

(47:21):
ball very effectively. We brought a Pooka Nakoul. He's got
a hundred and sixty five yards plus in the last
three games. I think he's the first second player in
NFL history to ever do that. CD Then you look
at Bijon Robinson. He's got two thousand and forty six
yards of total scrimmage yards this year. He's forty percent
of the Falcons offense. So I look at these offenses.
Kirk Cowith, Dogkins's gonna throw it for three whatever, have

(47:42):
a couple of TVs, but he's also have a couple
of interceptions. That's just screaming to me points. And so
when you look at the line that's this big, I
love that, Hey, we're hitting money lines. We're hitting five
and a half. For me, this is an over game
that's over forty nine and a half points. That's what
I like. I like that. I think his defense is
cooled off a little bit. Matthew Stafford. He regardless of distractions,

(48:05):
reading things. He knows how he's playing. He knows that
an m VP might be right around the court for him.
He wants to show that off. B Jehan Robinson. He's
looking at the offensive offensive player of the year or
he's an incredible football player. Arizona kid can't disrespect it,
and so I will. I'll be taking the over in
that game.

Speaker 4 (48:23):
Will Will has falcons plus eight and a half.

Speaker 1 (48:28):
And head coach your way back.

Speaker 2 (48:30):
Ye, no, no, he had that. Head coach is a
good coach.

Speaker 1 (48:32):
And Kirk Cousins Kirk Cousins dog by the way, love
how Kirk's just still doing his things. He's on that
like a rod fucking plan ten years younger. Yeah, he's
just still like yeah, thirty six, all right, obviously I'll
be on the fucking playing. Yeah. He's one of the

(48:55):
budget guy, you know.

Speaker 3 (48:56):
Yeah, you think you think you think they keep him
around next year? It depends on is he well, I
mean with buddy boy getting hurt coming off of a
cl repair and you do you you've already paid him.
I'm making this up ninety million, sixty million for two years.

Speaker 1 (49:11):
Yeah, I supposed to make next year.

Speaker 4 (49:13):
Kirk's contract is four years, one hundred and eighty mili.
He has a fully guaranteed twenty twenty six and twenty
twenty seven.

Speaker 2 (49:18):
Oh my god, they can.

Speaker 3 (49:20):
Well they get the offset if he goes elsewhere. Yeah,
but I think you need as you see in this league,
you need a backup. You do. Injuries are gonna happen.
Nothing derails the season. As we just talked about with
the Colts, more than not having a competible does that work? Comportable?

Speaker 1 (49:37):
Comfortable?

Speaker 3 (49:38):
Now? Comparable is competent?

Speaker 1 (49:40):
Pretent? Look at us.

Speaker 3 (49:44):
And then you see what mac Jones does. So I
mean all that to say, like I think, oh, you'd
be mac Jones.

Speaker 1 (49:49):
He's paid.

Speaker 3 (49:50):
No, he signed a two year deal. I believe is that.
Would you check mac Jones? I think he's he signed.

Speaker 1 (49:55):
Lot of guys. Yeah, he'll be on a different team
next year somewhere.

Speaker 2 (49:58):
The trade from someone will has give you need to
back up rock.

Speaker 1 (50:04):
They got a guy.

Speaker 3 (50:06):
I'm just saying you gotta.

Speaker 1 (50:07):
Have I agree, But sometimes there's too much of a
lucrative deal for you to say notes and you're just
like now we just hope and pray. I hope to
god it happens.

Speaker 2 (50:19):
From Georgia. They got the quarterback from Georgia.

Speaker 1 (50:22):
Yeah, he's he's all the same age as Matthew Stafford.
This hell, he's a COVID kid, right but no, but yeah,
he was in college during COVID allegedly. Yeah, so he's
got an extra six years of eligible. He can go
back to college if you want. We interrupt episode to
bring you True Classics, specifically the True Classic Pima T shirts.

(50:43):
They got that little curve on the side, Grab the shoulders,
grab the chest a little bit. Your boy has been

Look Good, feel good, play good, True Classic Game of

(51:04):
the Week. Every Sunday's got games, but one only fits
just right. This is the True Classic Game of the Week.
We're talking about the Philadelphia Eagles at the Buffalo Bills.
Bills Josh Allen favorite at two and a half. Right now,
the total points in the game is forty four and
a half, Delady.

Speaker 2 (51:19):
Can anybody be better than the Bills? Right now? This
is late in December? Can any team be better than
the Bills? Can the Philadelphia Eagles go up to Buffalo
and beat the Bills? Upset the upset the Bills? Is
this possible? What's the weather going to be like in

(51:41):
the in Buffalo weather report?

Speaker 1 (51:43):
Clump?

Speaker 2 (51:45):
Well, he assuming co We're gonna assume it's snowy Flory.

Speaker 1 (51:51):
That's Monday night. Yeah, yeah, yeah, fifty chance of snow
five Hey, during the day, it iss all day, crazy sign.
That's a sign eighty eighty.

Speaker 4 (52:06):
Chance of snow.

Speaker 1 (52:08):
You've been hitting over eighty percent since we ten.

Speaker 2 (52:11):
Hey, this ship was like a miracle, you know what
I mean?

Speaker 1 (52:14):
It just pame to me.

Speaker 2 (52:16):
It was clear. I was at that staple.

Speaker 1 (52:20):
I saw it.

Speaker 2 (52:20):
Yeah, last snow game in Buffalo, I saw it. Yes,
I saw it come to life.

Speaker 1 (52:25):
Man.

Speaker 2 (52:25):
Have youall ever heard the theory of a home alone
series of home alone of the guy the old man
being Jesus Christ?

Speaker 3 (52:34):
What you know what I did?

Speaker 2 (52:37):
You know what I'm talking about?

Speaker 3 (52:38):
I saw it on the Instagram reel.

Speaker 2 (52:40):
Yeah, it is a miracle right now, because I just
learned that at the age of forty two. So I
am going to ride with the Buffalo Bills. The weather,
the date and time of that game is gonna make
a difference. And I just don't say the Eagles showing

(53:01):
up for Lane Johnathan's coming back minus two and a half,
Bill Angel and Carter.

Speaker 3 (53:07):
Hey boys, I was. I was so fired up for
the Packers Bears game that I didn't even know the
Commanders and Eagles were playing before I turned it on
with four minutes left. So can someone tell me what happened?
I saw the Eagles won. There's a fight at the
end of the game. They clinched the division.

Speaker 1 (53:19):
Yeah, Eagles, Eagles were down, they end up coming back.
Saquon Barkley had a couple of nice runs. But they
played the Commanders.

Speaker 2 (53:25):
Yeah, they played two weeks in a row.

Speaker 1 (53:26):
They played the Raiders. They looked really good. They played
the Commanders looked really good. What's the narrative? Everyone's like,
this team's this team's back. Look at them. Their offense
is figuring out all their issues right now. Oh they're
throwing the ball well, Saquon Barkley's running the ball well.
Those two teams, Raiders Commanders muffins. Right, Yeah, this isn't
a Continental breakfast, brother, It's time to get over it.

Speaker 3 (53:48):
I like the Bills at minus two and a half.
Nobody's playing better than we've been. We've been throwing that
a lot. Nobody's playing better than Okay, Josh Allen is
playing incredibly well. He'll get some MVP. I believe we
got a scabbard okay, but he's playing incredibly well. If
the weather is this, if it starts snowing, look for
him to take over the game. Look for him to

(54:09):
run extend those plays. I just feel like the Eagles
are two up and down and the Bills are just
they're rolling right now, and they're still in it with
the Patriots as far as who's going to win the AFC,
So give me the Bills minus two and a half.

Speaker 1 (54:25):
Yeah, I'm going to be thinking the Bills as well.
I mean, the goal the game, the game plan for
the Bills on the defense side of the ball is
going to be keep the Eagles out of the red
zone and keep the Eagles out of the resid They're
the most efficient team in the red zone this year,
so the issue has not been them scoring points for
twenty five and in the issue has been getting to
the twenty five because they could be a very stagnant
off at the times. They're not very creative in the
running game. They're not very creative when it comes to

(54:47):
their route concepts and how they attack other defenses. Bills
defense has struggled against the run this year. That gives
me a little bit of concern. But Josh Allen, the
way he's been playing Superman for so long, it's not
sustainable level of winning for me. But if he can
keep doing it for this year, this is the clearest
path Josh Allen can have to the Super Bowl this year.

(55:07):
Patrick Mahomes being out of it, with Joe Burrow being
out of it, with Lamar Jackson on the fringe of
possibly being out of it, this is going to be
one of the only playoffs that you see Josh Allen's
face and that's like, Oh, that's the only recognizable face
everybody else You're like, who is that was this? It's
all new, it's all very fresh. I think the Bills
understand that. I think the Eagles are kind of a

(55:28):
pick of lipstick right now when it comes to like
their offense and people are really excited about them. Love
that Jalen Carter's coming back spat in week one. And
then you got Lane Johnson, who is an absolute ward daddy,
Like if he's not playing in the game, you know
something seriously injured for him to come back, that's just
better for football. Big fan of his and the way
he plays the game. But I'm taking the Bills minus
two and a half here.

Speaker 4 (55:48):
It makes me happy to say that Will is also
taking the Bills minus two and a half. So you
all took the Bills minus two.

Speaker 2 (55:54):
And a half.

Speaker 1 (55:54):
Yeah, I almost feel like I'm gonna I should follow
the grenade right here and just take the Eagles plus
two and a half, even though I don't. I'm out
on the I'm out on the Eagles.

Speaker 2 (56:05):
I'm out on them. Do we have a percentage on
how many bets when we all take them they either
win or lose.

Speaker 1 (56:10):
No, jergould that it's not good. It's definitely. Any time
you see any sort of media and it's all lined
up with the graphics of the team, it's flips.

Speaker 5 (56:21):
I know.

Speaker 1 (56:24):
Yeah, But even like last week when we all took
Oklahoma on get up, I'm thinking of myself, I should
just take Alabama right now. I should take it would
have changed the game. I really believe that.

Speaker 2 (56:34):
All week they I'm all taking off. I'm like, dude,
we're too close to Alabama. I'm getting it just non stop.

Speaker 1 (56:42):
So you bet Alabama to see the quarterback for Alabama.

Speaker 2 (56:45):
I'll bet Alabama.

Speaker 1 (56:47):
That's my quarterback for Alabama.

Speaker 3 (56:49):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (56:50):
He took that get up and put it on the Wolf.
Was he talking to you?

Speaker 3 (56:54):
Had the game he came on the show?

Speaker 1 (56:55):
No, No, he's he's he's like he loves it. No, No,
I know, I mean like in the game. No, he
he's like, I'm a fucking wolf.

Speaker 2 (57:01):
Okay, I think.

Speaker 1 (57:04):
I think because he when he did that and got
like got like all hyped up. I'm like, I know this.
He messages with the show. I know he's like fans
of ours. Yeah, but also he probably did see us
be like we're not taking all the bad. He was
like these guys.

Speaker 2 (57:18):
Yeah, I know he like us, but I just was
like it looked gassed up, like he was like I
saw that.

Speaker 1 (57:24):
He has a completely different energy about him from the
SEC Championship when we saw him to this game. The
SEC Championship was calm. He was like, hey, good to
see you guys. The whole thing very like relaxed this game.
He was like, fuck this and they go down seventeen. Oh,
you're like, it sucks. They're terrible ever since they played Tennessee.
They just ruined them and then they just came back

(57:45):
and caught themselves a little dumb. They're a little two
one side for me to take the entire playoff though?

Speaker 3 (57:49):
Are those next? Are those next playoff games? This weekend?

Speaker 1 (57:52):
The next next weekend?

Speaker 4 (57:55):
It's on New Year's even New Years say New Year's.

Speaker 1 (57:58):
Buddy, thats fun games to watch. Yeah, be on the
lookout for teams that had to buy looking slow looking.

Speaker 2 (58:05):
I think the last year always always right, two weeks crazy, except.

Speaker 1 (58:11):
For Indiana Ohio State. I think the teams that didn't
have a buy could skid a little bit.

Speaker 4 (58:15):
Here, Ryan Nolan got your stats. You are eight and
eleven when you all picked the same team.

Speaker 1 (58:21):
Oh yeah, I'll write all of us on that. All right,
that's that's way better than I thought.

Speaker 3 (58:26):
Yeah, I thought it was.

Speaker 1 (58:36):
So key. We kind of got that thing.

Speaker 2 (58:39):
What's my parlay? If I was a parlay all my
bets so because the last time, but the last time
he read it off. People took it and we hit
and you know, I just had a lot of the
should wait, they should wait for a lot of people's
going to be six and oh.

Speaker 1 (58:54):
We should parlay all of your picks.

Speaker 2 (58:55):
You are right, And I turned a ten dollars into
two hundred because most of the people rolleah. You know, yeah,
just cool units is units.

Speaker 1 (59:04):
Your unit is your unit.

Speaker 2 (59:04):
Yeah, you know, judgment, no judges. That's what I'm saying you.
Two hundred is a nice good And you play.

Speaker 1 (59:10):
Out here betting seven hundred and ninety dollars and fourteen
cents while you bet I like it with mine.

Speaker 2 (59:15):
Bounce even cash cash how.

know what's messed up? Only every other week on this show,
we have this lucky better use the profit boost token
and hit the fifteen legs and we read it out
and Clay hits a fifteen legger. We don't even get
a card like that.

Speaker 2 (59:36):
It's only for college.

Speaker 1 (59:39):
That's the boy with the boys.

Speaker 2 (59:41):
Wait, but it's we can use.

Speaker 3 (59:43):
It though, right, you can use it as even though
we're one of the boys, were really not one of them. Yeah,
we're like one of the boys with a Z. You
know we're one of the boys, the soldier boys, but
one of the boys. He is.
