welcome to two giant goofballs a New York Giants podcast are you a goofball that loves Giant football if so sit back and relax as we talk about the team that both excite and frustrates us so much and now and now here are your goofball hosts Drew and Rob welcome fellow goofballs two giant goofballs a New York Giants podcast I am Drew joined as always by Amir I'm Rob never recovered it only people in Facebook land saw what she commented so far so yeah I had to call it out yeah I believe yes she had to put the salt right in the wound and just put a little lime juice over the top of it yeah yeah and she's yeah she's she's close to it I think I think she's cool she's spot on I had it a little off by one game

what she put well let's let's get it let's we'll get into it that so welcome everyone to our week two pick show here where we give you guys all of our picks for every NFL game this week hopefully I'll make some money off that since I'm in Florida and I can't legally bet and as Deb's already pointed in the comments I am better at this than Rob oh

listen as a Giants fan who you

with my mind not with my heart the Giants have never played the Cowboys well I'm sorry

Dallas podcast is this a week to pick or is this a fandom and everything spectacular we love the Giants no matter what show it's uh it could be both no it's not okay

to pick show you'll be happy this week what I did with a giant soap

alrighty let's get into the results first from last week where where are we at Rob I'm curious well Deb you were very close she has you 11-5 she had me ten and six but Drew was actually Drew had Tim wins I had Netherlands oh you know but actually hold on hold on hold on we never updated that sheet for Monday night that's why she's saying that oh yeah oh look at that snap oh snap that's what it was somebody was slacking who's supposed to do that Rob I actually drew that was you that's true spreadsheet

Steph your heart is so right so 38 points they had so it's the under so yep yep yep yep yep so yeah uh yeah so there we go now it's accurate Rob go for it true you have loved ones you got 10 wins against the spread

and then you over under was Mike I was at 14. good for you I got only two of them wrong and I was 9 9 and 11.

I'm getting there horses

yeah that's why you're sitting there making sure the cop went around last year when I smoked he had nothing to say when I did this I don't remember being smoked at all when I smoked you there's a difference I am not a cigar good sir anyway I had six trifectas last week which means nothing I predicted foreign

[Laughter]

who won the game the spread of the game and the over under but my man Drew over here you got eight oh yeah half of the games I got the the winner the spread and the over under that's yeah you messed up a little Pat in the back over there a little Pat in the back so yeah guys if you followed our picks you won some money congrats we're here helping you out with your all 401K Accounts at all [Laughter] right so let's get right into it this week here who we got first Rob yeah Thursday Night Football we got the Vikings going on tonight right right we've got the Vikings going to Philadelphia

the Vikings are there seven point underdogs in this game and over under is 48 and a half senior Drew who you got to take in this game you know the Vikings couldn't beat the Bucks so yeah I don't have a lot of Hope for them going into Philadelphia at that point you know Road team already lost to a much worse team than this so I got the Eagles to win uh I got them to cover the spread and I got the under on the points because I do think Philly's gonna be much more of a defensive team this year that's going to try to win close low scoring games so and I think if there's anybody out there in the NFL that has a secondary to go ahead and contain Justin Jefferson listen we don't want to give the Eagles any credit here we never do but if we're being realist here it's the Eagles that's the one team that has the corners to go ahead and flip-flop them up keep them both fresh against him even if they want so I got the I got the Eagles win overall kind of beating the spread and got them going under is that what she took away from the eels barely squeaking by a win against fats

no I'm saying there's a better team to win this game I'm not saying they're a better team to win that spread and I'm going to go with the over oh so we're going to disagree two out of three difference of opinion Rob's First lost one now we shall see you listen everyone said that the Eagles are going to smoke the Patriots and what happened yeah yeah the Eagles made mistakes and they should run that game handily but they did not the Super Bowl hangover right there haha all right Sunday night that's a sunny day afternoon yeah it's sunny day let's get all these afternoon games you can't just skip all those guys there's so many of them where's the Packers going into Atlanta Atlanta is uh a point and a half underdogs and you're spread over here Drew and over under 40 and a half points I am taking the Packers to win this game Atlanta look better than what I thought in a defense and the offense as well but there's a love with those Packers those Packers are going to win that game they're going to cover that spread and it's going to go into the over yeah I uh I agree with you on everything but I mean except for the fact you said the Falcons looked better than expected last week they just played the Panthers it's two teams that are still not the so good playing each other um so I think in the end the Packers if you go based on the spread at least keep in mind they were not even favored last week against the Bears a one and a half Point favorite against the Falcons guys ride the Green Bay train as long as you can because eventually they're gonna realize this team's not bad and this Jordan love kid might be good because you think the Packers know something about a quarterbacks they've only had a good quarterback in this league since the mid 90s but I say they're gonna be three for three for three decades yeah my God I mean we'll we'll still see the jury's still had a hundred percent I want to crown him the next you know in that Trifecta there so to speak but that's what I said it's the jury Sail Out yeah but I'm not but I'm just saying like this is It's a slap in the face the Falcons are a much worse team than the Packers are it should be much more than one and a half Point favorite this is the game that I'm telling you right now I put all the money onto the world go for it I'm gonna feel really stupid if I'm wrong after I said that but yeah well especially because it's like it's somebody else's money I'm telling them to Camp with especially if the Lions one and a half it's just three it's three and a half like you start getting a little questionable like it might be a closer game but I just wanted a half take the Packers to win this all day long all day long all day long all day all right um

caught up next we got the Vegas Raiders the Raiders they're going into Buffalo after Buffalo just got embarrassed

the Raiders are eight and a half underdogs in this game which is absurd yeah and the over under is 47 and a half

Drew what's your take on this game uh uh let's slap in the face here I mean the bills couldn't even beat the Jets without Aaron Rodgers as Conor chimed in already saying told you Rogers wouldn't last he was three and out literally yeah literally bring it out for the count uh yeah but for the season I mean the the bills will probably win this game because they are the better team in the Raiders still are but I think it's the Raiders should be able to hang in with eight and a half points like I'm not saying it's gonna be a nail biter but that's a pretty high spread in fact looking at the list in a quick glance here looks like that's the highest spread all week long it's not like the bills are playing you know the Cardinals hmm like this is this is a better team guys the Raiders aren't a great team don't get me wrong but they're an average team so to have that kind of spread to me is just insane and I do have the over on the points

well Drew if you get that Trifecta so do I that cancels out I agree with you 100 the only thing that kept me for saying possibly the bills might cover that spread well there's nothing Kathy the spread it's just too much like the average spread last year I'm trying to make up something I can't make up that's the average spread life it was like eight points last year so

if this game's a blowout it's because um Myers doesn't play which I assume he's gonna play if this game's a blow it I'm shocked and you know honestly if it is good for the bills because that's the ones who's gonna blow out the Raiders aren't going to blow out the bills yeah they do oh my God the bills

all right okay next so next we got the Raven skills because because I don't have the animations made this week I'm gonna make random sounds all right so Bengals

where's the biggest town there we are all right so yeah Baltimore going I didn't know you're looking forward to this sounds that much

all right so Baltimore is going into the Bengals Cincy um is a three and a half Point favors in this game

and over earners 46 and a half

true how do you feel about this game I went first last time it's your turn uh we'll definitely go first I will not be the anti-gentleman to take your Spotlight you go I appreciate that Spotlight go with your soliloquy oh I'm taking the Ravens to win this game they do not beat the spread it's going to be a three-point game I took the under I think Rams will win I think it's another tough divisional game for the Bengals who are a little beat up but they played the Ravens pretty darn good the past few years and I think it's gonna be more of an ale biter in the utter more of a defensive game Grant Bagel Secrets didn't show up last week Evelyn green

so I think you got a lot more faith in the in the uh the Bengals than I do potentially because I am very much on the fence on how to gamble this game here but we had the same exact answers I'm kind of hedging my bets for Ravens Bengals as far as spread and wins doing the Ravens to win Bengals to beat the spread but I'm not confident I wouldn't bet a dollar on this game so the big question is Joe does Joe burrow in the offense for the Bengals get back to what they were doing the last couple years or is something wrong I think personally Joe burrow may not may not be fully healthy he had an injury all pre-season may also be the fact that he didn't practice at all during the preseason he didn't get in the preseason games maybe it's just he's Rusty but am I going to trust that week two is when obviously the rust comes off nope

yes sir you have a question at the back no I just have a statement so the bagels since Joe Burr has been there have been a playoff cover team ever who's been there pretty much yes correct right they've always started off slow look at their their first number 82 yards is beyond slow yes he made Daniel Jones look good

you could say that you're not wrong but yeah we didn't have the worst quarterback last week

but do I think the Ravens have enough to beat since he's defense do I think that that offense has uh that since these uh offense has more enough to be closer to the Reigns defense I do I do especially God forbid there's no snowstorm God forbid there's no like hurricane going through there like on paper good coming hey but if the weather holds out right it should be a close game we'll see well I mean we both agreed so yeah but I'm I'm saying Point Blank that I'm hedging my bets that I wouldn't bet a dollar on the same yeah no this is these are one of those sufficient games it's very hard to bet some shows some shows will tell everybody hey you know we're not betting on this we wouldn't bet on this We're not gonna give you an answer with no cop-outs we have no cop-out rules there is no going to El Paso as Terry the Greek would say this is this is a show that every single game were to give you our picks whether we're confident in them or not but we'll tell you if we're not confident because we don't want you to go ahead and actually bet money on things that we're not confident of the next game coming up I probably will put some money on

you got the Seahawks they're going into deep car this is the last one the same exactly pretty much we just swapped out birds and cats you got the Seahawks as a six point favorite yeah edif 48 and a half point over under I'm going to take the lines I don't realize I made a mistake in my pick here I'm taking the lines all day long all day long the Lions have proven to themselves goddamn that lots of fruit hunting and using the lord's name in pain here Rob this is the family program uh play blame the Seahawks more recently more reason so I'm taking the alliance to win take the alliance to beat that spread

and I'm taking the other because Gino doesn't look like Gino's last year

besides last year he's got it he's got a 50 mil this year he's good now you saw you saw the Aaron uh no Clipper since you oh my God yeah yeah he did not do good Aaron Donald just crashing upon him last week you know I agree with you for the most part I got the the Lions to win and beat the spread the one thing I don't have is I I'm disagreeing with you on the over under I think that both teams like to throw the ball and I think both teams will throw the ball and that's the only difference I got there I do think it's going to be an over on the score but I do think the Lions as of right now based on what we saw last week and again I'll see what we said last week the first couple weeks are the hardest weeks to gamble there really are correct which is just it makes what I did last week even more amazing but still [Laughter] but it's like 11 weeks ago you have guesses based on what you saw in the pre-season and what the off-season editions were and that kind of stuff so the Seahawks on paper are an equal team to the Lions based them before last week let's be honest if it wasn't for that you know the Rams beating them and the Lions beating the Chiefs we're probably saying this is a really close match who knows who's gonna win it's a toss-up but we're going based on last week of will so this is not a game I would put money on but based on how they played last week I'm gonna sit there and tell you the Lions should beat that spread in the line should win easily the over that's the one I'm most confident on that game which is funny because that's the one that you and I disagree on yeah I that actually I did one of these a flip of a coin but look at how much the Seahawks offense put up last week and how much the lines put up against KC's defense last week which Casey is not known for the defense defense they're known for the high power offense so if you put those together you put those together what do you get 34 points yeah that's why I went with the Ender like you said we'll see because you got two bad defenses basically potentially based on how the Seahawks played last week so we'll see yeah I mean Grant never cannot Sneaky Pete because that guy he's so sneaky sneaky all righty let's go to this next game hopefully well the ship yeah it's okay I'm sure we're gonna uh agree on this one as well you got the Colts going into Houston to play the Texans the Texans are the one point favors in this game with a 40 point over under yeah red it's changed I think I saw on uh Season Sports books it was at 35 and a half is it that low is this is off of CBS Sports bet lines today is what I pulled off when I did this this afternoon so yeah I mean we talked about this with on the show we did on Monday night there the Colts I really thought fought pretty hard in their week one um loss to the Jags they really were much closer team than we thought the Texans are the Texans not to be cruel about it they until they show otherwise they're just not a good team whereas the Colts were bad last year but they were bad because they were tanking

this year so now they got a new rookie quarterback which is the whole reason they tanked uh and and I think he didn't look horrible he looked probably the best of the the big three that played obviously will let us didn't play so I'm saying the big three he was probably a top 10 quarterback last uh last week I don't know if I go that far but I have to look into the comparisons I didn't look into that respect I was looking purely from a rookie standpoint he looked like the best of the three rookies last week for the season um so yeah I got the Colts to win I got the Colts to beat the spread because the one point spread I don't give a damn when he did one point I'm just going to bed who I think is going to win that's pretty much like a freebie yeah I mean 40 on the over under that's the least confident I am but I'm gonna put over on that because I do think you're gonna see a little bit of action there with these two rookie quarterbacks trying to you know toss the ball around and show each other up a little bit there yeah I mean I almost agree with you 100 I I went with the under because I don't have the confidence I think it's going to be as sad as it sounds more of an offensive game than offensive game but more of a defensive game with bad offensive play to equal the under of 40. which yeah pretty bad yeah yeah next up we got the Chiefs going into Jacksonville everyone's favorite city in America alligators and monkeys just heat each other up let's go to Florida

listen if anybody's ever been to default it's really not a nice area I don't know why they're so proud of their County you know anybody else doing that you know like you don't say people in East Rutherford going Bergen is it Person County I don't even know yeah uh uh let's look at that it could be yeah I don't know either way it's it's ridiculous plus I've been to Jacksonville multiple times including the game last year Jacksonville's not a nice interview people it's not a nice if you want when you think of Florida you're not thinking Jacksonville who may be the first to assure you of that you're thinking Tampa Bay you're thinking you know Sarasota Disney World people Disney yeah you're not thinking Miami yeah well honestly dude Miami's overrated as well but it really is hold on hold on to the topic holiday okay back to the back of the game back to the game back to the game all right Chiefs in Jacksonville the Jags are three-point ferrets in this game and the over honor is underdogs yes sorry three-point underdogs everyone loves and owns underdogs why you call them favorites KC's three point favorite the over under is 51 in points

I take in the Chiefs all day long

I do they're gonna make up for you talking about Sunday and Monday night games they're gonna they're gonna make up they're gonna make up for listening to the Lions with that Super Bowl hangover and they're gonna go over because I believe these two young quarterbacks even though can you call the homeless a veteran quarterback at this point I think you clearly can I think that's safe to say he's been the league but has he really he's what two years veteran to uh Lawrence at this point so these two young guys are below 30 are gonna throw the ball through the air

I'll say it like that

young guys because they're changing whippers these damn poolies in my lawn I'm gonna throw the ball over the floor that's why the NFL refuses to switch everybody over to Grass nobody else get off

okay as a fair point it's exactly it so who you got in the game here I just said I take the Chiefs all day long Chief all day long all day long they're going to cover it they're gonna do everything you gotta do and it's gonna be in the over I'm agreeing with you 100 very simple that was easy enough okay good up next

oh that was easy go on next you got the Bears got Bears duh bears going into your your neck of the woods over there playing the Buccaneers yard

the Bears that bears are there 3.9 dogs here

at 41 and a half with the over under Drew how you feeling uh I'm playing good thank you for asking how are you feeling Rob

it stretches

I said all along and some people said I was crazy most of them are Bears fans that the Bears won the off-season and the team that wins the offseason tends to lose the regular season That's History has shown that repetitively year after year you can't just get a lot of cap space and go ahead and overnight build your build your team back up it doesn't work it doesn't so I have the Bucks actually winning which is crazy because no one thought they went last week nothing to go potentially 2-0 where a team that everybody thought would be horrible I still think they'll end up horrible before the year's up but I think this is not the game to get exposed I have them beating the spread I have the under on the points because I don't think either team is going to score a ton of points Baker Mayfield's Hit or Miss every so often he goes off um and then you got of course you know the um the Bears just never really been a high scoring team in general and Justin Fields tenure there so uh you know accept a little bit of stretch last year so I'm gonna go with I'm gonna go with the Bucks all day long in this one I'm pretty confident this one actually which is weird to say I'm confident in the Bucks it's really sad but I'm almost with you and I I disagree and one thing that you're not going to expect

I took the push oh I think it's going to be a close enough game he's gonna there is a win by a

yeah field goal you're thinking yeah that's a ballsy move we'll find out for Works cotton [Music] up next we got the Chargers hold on hold on hold on before we go next we've reached the halfway point oh we got we got to go through the comments that means we got to go through all the comments plus we got to pay the bills uh Demps is like week one day we already went over her comment there she was close she was close uh we went over Connors let's see here Angelo says I have to ask do you think Danny dimes is still our guy um I think his contract says he definitely is hopefully he proves worthy of that contract but yeah uh he says I think everyone sucked but the quarterback carries the team so what next game we win against a [ __ ] team Cardinals if we're lucky here's the thing though again we talked about this in the post game show after calming down for a little bit there you can't sit there and blame Daniel Jones that he had no time in the pocket whatsoever he couldn't do a damn thing he had three guys running after him I don't think anybody would succeeded with that line so that's not to say he couldn't have done a better job than he did he I think he could have done better I'm going to get a couple interceptions and that kind of stuff there but yeah he's you can't put it all on him you can't Connor says wonder how the Jets will do against calpukes we're gonna get to that game in a little bit there so we will give you our thoughts on that he also says no animations or CGI this show is going in the crapper damn trick you know what Connor budget got cut this week because of the buy me a coffee.com yeah but if you like [Laughter] no honestly the animations and that kind of stuff that I do is is when I have time to do and I just we my job's been a little crazy this whole week so um Angela says who do we get rid of first what do we need to do to move on and play better we don't get rid of anybody after one week Angela that's that's overreaction don't get me wrong that was a horrendous embarrassing game I cannot say that enough but you don't get rid of anybody after one week what happens if all of a sudden we beat the Cardinals as as most people will expect us to do I don't think that's it uh you know me giving anything away since we haven't gotten that game yet um what if we have to beat them and all of a sudden let's say we shocked the world and beat the Niners now we're two and one and people are saying oh that was a fluke game you can't give up after one week or even to say like you pull out the Niners and it's 49 to two I don't say dudes 49ers three you're like oh my god look look how great the Giants played look how good they did and then they just play competitively against matters you're still in the same boat yeah like I said let's not let's not go too crazy off one game uh Conor says actually bet obj thought he'd show off coming back the rookie did better thought he'd score last week and he didn't inspect my oh shake my head I want to see smack my hand yeah well you should stuck your head on that one foreign

flowers coming out and he did exactly what we expected he balled out and had a very good game um he said think Bengals scored Willie what's up Willie says Atlanta over Green Bay uh I have a lot of family in Atlanta so I think they'd be very happy if that happened but I don't see that happening at all uh Connor says you guys belong to FanDuel or DraftKings Etc uh I'm in Florida so yeah

sure yeah listen they want to pay us they can just mail us they're going to email us at two giant goopballs at mail.com we're happy to do a sponsorship with them GM and CS4 sportsbooks same thing go ahead Connor then goes on a rant about about scientology but we're not going to get no politics no religion that's the role

Raphael says hello fellas how's it going Drew and Rob and then says you still alive after last Sunday ouch but Giants have a good chance to beat the Cardinals wow that's still alive it's one game man it's one game a 21 game and it could be worse it could be Raiders fans oh oh snap I got it I gotta take that shot always we don't have Josh but Daniel's at least what we find uh Connor says good for Baker Mayfield winning when they said he wouldn't uh he says maybe we should ask the teams a better team's advice on getting o-line guys they seem to have them not to have our problem um yeah yeah because that one interception was on Barclay not on Jones I don't care what the stats say that's [ __ ] we kind of fired up here

right there I'm going based on just just the stats alone I don't disagree with you whatsoever but I wasn't getting into the part of that but yeah the other one he had he should have just taken going outside and not try to throw it away um and again he didn't get much going over the game a lot I get it the line is an issue but I'm still gonna say it's probably a combination of both more on the line but he's still gonna take some of the blame on that overall um all right let's get back to the games here after of course of course what you're gonna pay the bills cool

back to you Rob back to me all right Drew are we on the Chargers game you're on the yes we're on the charters and Titans oh charges are going to Tennessee here we go

the Titans are giving up three points in this game well they're they're famous they're being given three points I don't like the way you wrote the South Drew so I apologize oh oh yeah blame me I'm gonna blame you

the Chargers are going into Tennessee the Charger's a three-point favorites plane away and the over under is 45 and a half points

Jew

yeah uh this is this should be an easy one guys I can't believe the charters are only giving up three points in this whole thing after the way they just went head to head and totally just went crazy with the with the Dolphins last week I got the Chargers winning this very easily the uh the Titans did not look good as we expected um Tannehill try to throw the ball down the field last week we didn't even have to and couldn't now he's gonna have to he's gonna have to compete with Herbert and then the Chargers offense so yeah Chargers all day long winning covering the spread over on the points I do think the charter is going to get this totally ball out I think we go crazy see Drew I'm gonna tell you why this Line's so close do you see how close that game the Titans played against the Saints last week see how close that win was against Miami last week yeah that's why there's only three point spread but are you telling me the Saints are as good as the Dolphins so what I'm trying to tell you is the Chargers are about to blow out Tennessee that's why the line is at that but they're over under bet the over on this game go for the trifecta with Drew and I on this one because Mike yeah Titans did not look good they're forcing the ball downfield just like Drew was saying tanho's got a new weapon downfield he was trying to play with too much hey oh there's also getting set but he's also lost a lot of his offensive line that is yeah he talks better enough and and didn't one of those guys get injured last week he's lost three of his offensive linemen though in this past off season before that even sure I think it's a giant fan we can speak to what happens when you can't protect the quarterback yeah and even Henry didn't look that good granted I would love to see Henry look great against best defense that is not that good because I have entering one of my fanciest teams but that's satisfying anyway moving on March around along move that up to our game Drew we can't talk too much about this because yeah we're gonna do exactly what we do usually we're gonna tell people that they want to hear more about the game that for the Giants and the Cardinals they can tune in tomorrow 8 P.M Eastern Standard Time right before the Thursday night game kicks off and we're gonna go over that game for you guys live here on YouTube Facebook Twitter twitch and of course Rob's favorite my LinkedIn profile oh yes but my picks in this game tell you real fast and that's what it's going to be is Giants Giants over

Giants over boom next game Drew let's go right into it the Niners going into the LA to play the Rams

yeah Dodge it Ramen there yeah well those Rams are giving up eight points against uh the Niners over here with a 44 and a half over under Drew what's your thoughts uh so the biggest thing I'm curious about in this game is I want to see what you know newly crowned rookie amazing wide receiver uh nakua does against the Niners that's going to be interesting matchup let's see if this kid's real or not because there's a lot of young Corners in Seattle they're very talented but they're very young so sometimes you can get away with stuff against others if you can't get against the veterans so I want to see what he does there uh Sierra Frisco no I'm saying Seattle has young Corners that you can make they can have them make mistakes well this game is about the San Francisco 49ers I'm talking about pooka nakua though what he did last week against so this time he was playing against a more experienced level of corner that's what I'm saying okay I'm curious what he does against the Niners that are a better defense than the Seattle Seahawks let's find out how which city really is but I do think the 49ers will win the game uh I think people get because this is the second largest spread eight points here and I think that a lot of that is because of how bad the the Steelers played last week against the Niners now the Niners are a very good team do not get me wrong

but same as we talk about what happened with us and the Cowboys it's as much on us playing like crap as it was the Cowboys playing very well same exact thing that was the result as the Steelers playing like crap just as much as a result of the San Francisco 49ers playing well so I don't think that's a normal thing to expect I do think the Rams are going to cover the spread I think they'll lose like a touchdown which should be enough to do it um and I do think that you're going to have um the under on the points overall because of the fact that the Niners just that good of a of a defense true I've told you this before you're crazy oh I am but I agree with your craziness 100 on this whoo I I agree with a lot of what you said

not 100 I think the Rams are a better team this year than they were last year I will forget two years ago they won their Super Bowl there were a Super Bowl caliber team they had a terrible hangover a lot of injuries and some uh staff changes speaking of hangovers I just discovered something I didn't get a hangover from but you're I'm thinking alcohol now this is a I I had never heard of this the last night you know there's a green tea shot now yeah you do your old that's like 10 years old I'm sorry I've never heard of this thing before I'm old yeah it's Jameson with pickle juice no it's not pickle juices peach schnapps apparently

green tea oh what are you doing down there it's just supposed to be a little bit of a schnapps in there it's no it's this they're Sprite apparently too I don't know I didn't make it I didn't watch them make it I just Googled it to see what it was had it for the last time I mistaken pickleback is Jameson and pickle juice but yes the drink you're talking about supposed to be a little bit of peached out so this will be two-thirds Jameson therapy snaps I've just I was kind of shocked that an alcoholic beverage tasted just like green tea like Arizona green tea not like the you know herbal stuff you get an actual authentic Place yeah that's fake sugar yeah exactly gotta bring it up anyway yeah I love the fake sugar but split is my friend yeah Splenda splendid

we lost you you muted yourself bro

I got so excited about this game I forgot all about it the big West Coast game I I I have confident that that deniers will pull this out it is a big spread and the Rams defense did show up last week and they they're playing like not to the caliber but similar to where they were two years ago and I do believe they will lose by touchdown against the manners in the under so Drew we agree alrighty next one the Aaron Rodgers less jets are gonna go play the Cowboys in Dallas the Jets they're taken by halfway

when you're a jet you lose quarterbacks in the very first drive three and out that's how you go

but yeah this will turn into a musical probably you should have known better people God damn it anyway we're probably the only like NFL podcast out there that references musicals on like a regular basis by the way so guys if you ever subscribed and followed yet there's Drew and I's uh podcast about the NFL which is strictly in Broadway yes that's a lie maybe anyway the Cowboys are your other podcast two giant dancers yeah

uh anyway the Cowboys are seven and a half Point favorites in this game and the over honors 42. my God it's my turn to talk about this go for it I don't want to talk about this game the boys are gonna win the cow pukes I'm gonna win Jets I think will play defensively good enough to be in this game they're gonna lose it by touchdown so Jess will cover the spread in the over

yeah you know I I think that we're pretty close in this to the most part I have the Cowboys winning again sadly uh I have the Cowboys though actually covering the spread I do think this is gonna be this is gonna be the Meltdown game I think for the Jet fans where they go oh my God we need a quarterback because Zach Wilson you're right it's not good folks he's not and I know he did just enough to defeat the bills uh but we talked about this before on the show I think this is the year the Bills start going downward a little bit I think that window is kind of closing for them uh I think after this game I think what's going to happen is I think the Jets will make a call Tom ready no I don't think Tom Brady is coming out of retirement I really don't and I think if he was to come out of retirement not to a team he had to face Bill Belichick twice a year I don't think he would go with that that was a joke people are talking about it you might know about him like she didn't talk about so much I think you're right there you're choking him to drink there

uh I think the guy that they make the call to while he's not a stellar quarterback he very well could be a better quarterback than what they have in Zach Wilson and that's Carson Wentz who's still available by all accounts but I have a hearing he's been staying here in the Tampa Bay area working out with uh John Gruden you know John groom say what you want about him not necessarily the nicest guy in the world but the guy knows quarterbacks the guy knows offenses so he's in good hands right now and again he's much better I think than Zach Wilson is he Aaron Rodgers caliber of course not but he's at least an average Quarterback whereas Zach Wilson is a blue average Quarterback who is awesome who else might Joe better with the office of coordinator compared to uh Zach Wilson you never know plus bonus I don't I don't know what Carson wentz's mom looks like but if she's decent looking there it's a win-win uh I mean the only downfall it's gonna be winter and yeah

I got Cowboys I got Cowboys covering and I got over on the points because I don't think they're gonna beat them up pretty badly

we almost I actually like I said I took the Jets to win I think that defense is going to shock a lot of people this year I think they're the top three top five defense the Chargers defense is the one who shocks people don't you know the logos oh geez anyway next we got the commanders going to Colorado to play the Broncos DC is three and a half Point underdogs in this one I wrote for Marvel I understand the gceu I said DC at a movie you and everyone it's not a rock fan uh the runners 39 points Joe how do you feel about this game oh my God if you feel like James Gunn taking over to DC [Laughter] into Guardians of the Galaxy take movies I'm all down for it that guy's a genius um so yeah this is like one of those games that you got two teams with very good offenses sorry very good defenses yes and very bad offenses so I look at the weaknesses and go who's weaker on offense the commanders have really good receivers I don't think they have a quarterback still I'm not a Sam Howell guy I have not been until he proves me otherwise I wouldn't be able to tell that Russell Wilson didn't play good last year didn't necessarily play good last week but he played efficiently he was getting that West Coast like 70 percent completion percentage short passes kind of thing going that might be enough to beat the Commanders because the commanders again that is not buying the Sam Howell so I got the Broncos to win three and a half points it's not enough me to change my answer on who's gonna win on the spread so I'm going to keep it the Broncos there 39 points this is the over under thing it's the last thing I would ever put money on this game I have a rule that typically if it goes under 40 I'm going to Bethy over because most games will have 40 points or more but these offenses are both so inept who knows so I'm going to still bet the over but I'm not confident that

I like your analysis I really do I agree with you a third of the way because I do agree that broccolus will pull out this game I do believe that barakas have better coaching they have the better quarterback you know what I bet that being said I don't believe that the quarterback is that much better on the other team well that looks less than the other team I think it's a defensive game that the process will win I think they're going to win by three which leaves the commanders to beat that spread and we're gonna go with the under because I feel like it's going to be one of those oh wait for real it could be I feel like it's gonna be one of those 20 to 17 one of the 17 to 14 games 17 to 10 games it's going to be like one of those very hard defensively won games yes so just look at like when you talk about the West Coast offense look what happened to the commanders last week they won with a 36 spread

they won because they were playing a crappy team once again

West Coast offense crap team

Jesse all right anyway next up Sunday night night night Sunday night you got the Dolphins going to Foxboro Foxboro what does the Foxborough say what happens will happen I'm Bill Belichick [Laughter] Patriots are two and a half Point underdogs the over under is 47 and a half

how you feeling oh it's my turn it's your turn it's your turn I'm not gonna steal your thunder oh here's the Thunder because Dolphins don't normally win in the Thunder but they're going to win in this thunder it's going to be as close again but let's move I don't know where we'll go with this come on man we're making a BS as we go

but Dolphins wins Dolphins will cover they're probably gonna win by seven and it's going to be over don't count Bill Belichick not to eat this close it's going to be one of those games it's gonna be like 30 to like 27 24 like 27 to 24. they'll get that over and the Dolphins will cover

so I got the Dolphins winning overall I got them covering I got the over on the points we agree 100 across the board but I do think that it's going to be not a close game at all I just think that the the Patriots don't have the Firepower to compete with Miami right now the only saving grace they have is the fact that the uh the Dolphins defense is not as good as the Patriots which is going to make them look a little better than they actually are yes Rob do you have a question I don't know why you're raising your hand just come on chime on in you're a co-host not a student I've been trying to play here um about time do we not see what the Patriots did against the Eagles last week who is a high caliber offense or 20 points they score 20 points against Ohio power offense who kept that offensive 25 by the way and that defense kept the egos to 25.

just saying you're assuming that I think the Eagles are still very good I said Point Blank I think they got to kind of exposed to being that close potentially they play like that the rest of the season they're not nearly as good as they were last year no because they're still a good team good yes but not great but are you saying that you're you said that uh that the Patriots are not a great team or a good team um Patriots or an average team I think you never cannot build a check especially against a divisional rival

we'll see we shall see shall see let's talk about Monday Night Football Monday night night night scene we got a dual Double Header by the way that's a little interesting why do it this week instead of last week it should it's normally in the first week right it's a little weird it's a little weird the weird Flex NFL yeah what are you doing especially since it's not like at East Coast West Coast kind of thing it's like an East Coast Central West Avenue it's okay Central it's a East Coast Central thing normally is Pittsburgh Central yeah Pittsburgh would be Central I guess because that's the second game yeah okay West Coast makes more sense because the late game then is like it's not a big deal but yeah I don't know yeah I'm not saying up to one o'clock in the morning watch football I think I mean that's why I win that's why I win the picks games here don't worry I'll watch the Recaps at five o'clock in the morning I got the red zone now I can do whatever I want okay I got the red zones of Sunday you and your you and your YouTube whatever YouTube TV Dude I gotta say that was a pain in the freaking butt setting it up so I waited to like right before the game started to do I thought it'd take two seconds popped a credit card I didn't call it a day no it's like a whole process because I have an old address still on there and apparently you can't in Jersey do payments on it whereas a lot of the States you can Jersey specifically for some reason they can't like five of them you couldn't and I'm like whatever I'm not gonna pay it all at once and I'll put it in payments into that case if you're not gonna charge me Interest what the hell you know so change my address dude it all took forever I had to call customer service for Google which by the way nothing not very good customer service I'm like I'm missing the game so you can take my damn credit card take my money oh no you have to do it online like that's such a Google thing like you're here I'm here my credit card is here take my bad day money brutal pretend I'm 70. take my money over the phone you're done whipper stepper anyway back to the game you got this Monday Night Football you got Saints going into Carolina to play the Panthers Panthers are a three-point Underdog on this one all right yes yes you had it right yep the overrunner is 40.

Drew

I'm I'm very torn of this game I gotta say because I like the Panthers overall for the season to get better as things progress because they get a Young quarterback they got some new pieces there um except for Mingo John if you're listening because

um but see Connor does it instead for him uh but I do think that the Saints are going to win I'm hedging my bets on this and putting the Panthers to win the spread I wouldn't place money on this game though overall I have the over on the points and again I would even do with that that's a toss-up game dude I think it's gonna take the first four weeks or so until we figure out some of these teams and what they are and the Panthers are one of those teams if we don't know what they are yet and anytime I'd have an unknown commodity especially a quarterback I'm not putting my money down yeah both those teams I feel the same way about but I disagree with you because I took the Saints to win in the trifecta I I think they win the coverage spread and I think they win in the over three two out of three I agree with you a lot just out of the way don't be sad two out of three ain't bad yeah yeah go have some meatloaf now

anyway the second Monday night game you get the Browns going into Pittsburgh to play the Steelers the Steelers are giving up two points in this game with the overrider once again at 40. it's like they didn't even watch the first week I am taking the Browns to win this game to cover that spray because they're probably gonna win by three or four I'm going with the over

uh you know honestly this is another one of those games I'm not sold in the Browns yet I'm not either but I'm not sold on the Steelers from last year oh my God after last week I can't be sold them at all so it's like do I trust they're gonna do something different but I also love Mike Tomlin as a coach like this guy is just a freaking genius I think he'll write the show officially in the same half of the year not the first half that's what it did you know last year um I have the Browns to win I have them to cover the spread I have the over on the points because again the Browns played much better against a better you know against a better opponent they both have better opponents you know they both had pretty good teams between the Bengals and the the Niners they're both top five teams in the in in the France in the NFL right now but the Browns did their thing in one the Saints got manhandle the Steelers got that handled so I'm gonna go with the the Browns because I have to go based on that last week yeah yeah I agree so we ran that so Drew it's going to be another interesting week we got a lot of degrees a lot of disagrees a lot of different trifectas as usual there let's see here let's go let's go back to the comment pool here let's dive on in be right back okay Connor says I'd be like Dr McCoy in Star Trek I'll pay real money to shut that cup of coffee guy's voice off hell we gotta pay the bills Connor uh Gerald chimes in but I can't put your comment up Gerald we gotta rule if you're if you're saying positive like Yay whatever blank team we don't put it up we don't put it up it's a giant podcast here uh Connor says Derek Henry uh saquon Josh Jacobs no score but Bajan Atlanta did yeah Bichon didn't look that good in his first game like the highlights if you look the just that you say yes but it was like he had two or three decent plays and the rest of them yeah not so good um we'll see what he does obviously it's one game connorsell says if we lose the Cardinals I will lose my f in mind yeah I think we all will uh he also has wood Rams trade Stafford of the Jets I don't think so I don't think he wants to go anywhere personally and he's making a ton of money and I don't know if the Jets can fit like that I think Carson Wentz is the option uh Smitty said nah Niners beat that ass again the Steelers had no chance again you don't win with that kind of wide margin without doing things right and the other team doing things wrong if that's just life uh Connor says Najee didn't score either forgot him uh and then says how many yards will hodgison get for Vikings need to know for bet and will he score uh Hawkins City mean uh yeah that's I don't uh I'm not gonna I don't bet on players like that very typically because that's you never know you never know man I would say avoid the player best for the most part unless it's an obvious one like last year we were doing bets on Darius Slayton because they kept on having his yard total way too low for what he was doing uh Deb says I have never heard Tommy G sing let me tell you Deb if you haven't heard Tommy G saying this man is like Frank's freaking Sinatra okay Lounge singer 100 spectacular I don't know whether he sings or not uh Connor says Roberto your dance moves are unbelievable and he stepped after me he didn't hear it Connor that's that's see he didn't want him to stay here for the compliment uh he says I like to see them get Kaepernick so we can stop hearing about him saying he can still play uh he hasn't played in like 10 years he's not gonna he's not he's not gonna play uh he missed it Rob he was saying Connor says that your dance moves are unbelievable

then he says I love the groupster Angelo's back says I'm back did you answer we did answer and you missed it you missed the answer um we said basically can't blame it on one one person and can't make any changes after one week you gotta wait um I think there's kind of with the Mingo Mingo me go uh Raphael capitances uh Steelers are doomed from Steelers Doom from the beginning they have they have no chance yeah in that game they didn't but again you don't play that you don't have that kind of domination without the one team doing really good the one team doing really bad you can't put it just the Niners so alrighty guys we will be back here again for you guys again 8 P.M Eastern Standard Time to go over the preview of the Giants Cardinals game here um so prepare in the Isaiah Simmons Revenge game because that's that's going to be a fun part of this that I haven't heard a lot of people talking about again Isaiah Simmons chomping at the goddamn bit uh to go after his former team I would be uh especially because it's a new coaching staff and everything a lot of the faces he played with are gone so it's not like he has to worry about you know beating on friends too much there um so again we will be back here again Eastern Standard Time 8 P.M uh right before the game kicks off so you don't miss anything hopefully just maybe a little bit at the beginning of the game okay opening kick off boring anyway you're good you got the 15-minute rule anyway yeah what do you think you got I think kickoff is like 8 20. that's why we always do it that way um so we'll be back on again on always Facebook YouTube Twitter twitch and Rob's favorite my LinkedIn profile and of course the next day we're always available on every audio podcast platform no demand Apple Spotify I Heart Radio uh you know Google podcasts all these different ones I haven't heard of uh so again subscribe like follow hit the Bell on YouTube that's the best one to give you notifications when we go live really it's YouTube YouTube does have the best platform for videos I gotta say not to tick off other people's algorithm at that point yeah I can see the people at Twitter X right now going hmm he just talked good about YouTube we're gonna have to then read this status I don't know I do the hmm maybe two seconds but
