[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I think that they should be favored if it's Teddy. Uhm, I think that he makes that much of a difference between him and Skylar Thompson. I think this line opening at three was a result of them not expecting Teddy to play.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, if you look at the, the look ahead line in that game, it was actually Miami minus one and a half. So that was with the expectation that, that Teddy would play this week.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It probably, yeaah, probably moves to pick him just because nobody knows how, without the practice, how well he does, but I think the sharps would jump on it and push it up to one or one and a half.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was also on the Miami side. I was, I was a little bit delayed in putting that in. I wanted to get Miami over three and it was three and a half all yesterday after Schuyler Thompson was announced. I figured people would push it up and I could get it at four. So I waited and now it's back down to three at Caesar's and we'll see what the other books do.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Minnesota won three straight by the skin of their teeth. They were, they were very close in all those games. Two of those were at home.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The other game was against New Orleans in London, not a true road game, obviously. And that was against New Orleans without their number one quarterback running back a receiver. So I don't know how good Minnesota is despite the four on one record. You know, I think they still have a lot to prove. And I don't think Cousins has a very high ceiling just in general.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, but pretty high floor, pretty low, pretty low ceiling to me. Both these defenses, bottom four and pass yards for play, like you said, they're, they're, the Alphans aren't playing good. The Vikings defense isn't playing that good either.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I think there could be a lot of points here. Uhm, I'm pro, I'm taking Miami also. I have it as a lean here at the plus three. Uhm, I'm hoping that we get it at three and a half again, hoping to eat, stay ahead of the teddy news if he's, if he's ruled in. Uhm, so I, I might get it in at plus three if I think that's going to happen too, but for now it's just a lean.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, you go to my expert page and you put follow and then that'll give you notifications when, when I enter a pic.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well in that game, Kansas City had to worry about the running games. They could not stop the running game at all and Josh Jacobs was carving them up and then you start worrying about that and you get beat over the top. This one, this line is interesting. It was Pickham and then Buffalo shocked the world by blowing out Pittsburgh, which I guess nobody expected because it moved the line to, to Buffalo minus two.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And, uh, I was like, Buffalo's favorite by 14 against Pittsburgh, right? It was in the market. I've expected a blowout win, but apparently they look so good against Pittsburgh that they adjusted it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think if Kansas City isn't struck by bad luck, bad luck at India in that game that they should have won comfortably, um, but all those bad things happen to them. I think they'd be, you know, right in line with Buffalo, maybe not quite as good as Buffalo coming off of that, that Raiders game.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I thought these teams were even before last week. I don't think the gap widened this much. And at home, Kansas City can't be catching points. At plus three, it's an amazing pick. Two and a half, I think it's still a solid pick. At two and a half, I decided to put it in my teaser with Jacksonville and make it plus eight and a half.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, it was the lean eagles earlier in the week at five. It's now up to six and a half. You can see as of Thursday afternoon, we're picking it at six.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's a little too much for me. I'm probably a stay away at that number. Everybody's making this big deal about Cooper Rush, you know, you know, being, being just fine at quarterback and maybe he should be the starter, yada, yada, yada. Dallas Defenses is carrying the team. I mean, the offense was basically one big Pollard run last week.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And the passing offense had like 76 net yards or some low low number. Didn't have to pass and why are you going to pass if you don't have to?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, the Dallas offense, 23rd in yards per play, 29th on third downs. Two of their three touchdown drives last two weeks were, um, three plays long. So it's not like they're engineering drives down the field with Cooper Rush. They're hitting a big play here and there. And I think Philly can limit that. So I do lean to the Philly as well, but it's numbers gotten a little too big for me that I'm probably staying away.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let's talk about those injuries. Denver also lost Jovante Williams week before they had Josie Jogan knocked out of that game at linebacker. He's been a pretty solid linebacker for them. So it feels like the Denver team is dealing with like what the Chargers went through injury wise a few weeks back when you throw in the Russell Wilson injury too.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, but the Chargers seem to have gotten over that. Playing well the last few weeks. Herbert looks fine the last few weeks. I'm not worried about him at all. The left tackle they put in, uh, in place of Slater looks pretty solid. Uhm, Denver's offense, like you said, been awful. 18th in yards per play, but terrible on third down where they ranked 30th. Terrible in the red zone where they ranked 32nd.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, so yeaah, Denver's defense has been good against the pass, but they're dealing with those injuries and the Chargers found their run game last week. Chargers came into that game with the worst run game.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In the league at I think 2.7 yards per play heading into that game and then Eckler ran all over them. So maybe if that diversifies the offense, they have a better shot here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, Brandon Staley as a coach does questionable things, but he's a better coach than Hackett. I think we can all agree. So I think with the coaching edge, with the major quarterback edge, with home field, even though it's the Chargers, and only 4½. I like laying the 4½ with the Chargers, so that's why I have it as a best bet.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I have a best bet Carolina plus 10. I actually put it in on the site on sports line at plus 11. I was very interested in taking it once it got over 10.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So they have a lot of coaching firings. Matt Ruhl is a bad coach. Teams often get a positive bounce after firing bad coaches, which you know, we've talked about that in the past, and you can't get any worse than the job he did. Now you got PJ Walker at quarterback. You lost your starting quarterback.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I don't know how, how, uh, if they're not good, if they're going to score 10 again, then I think I'm going to get a win here no matter what Carolina does. Ram's offense.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Carolina, 32nd in yards for play, been worse than Carolina in yards for play. And that Carolina offense is getting coaches fired. Of course, the Rams aren't firing anybody coming off a Super Bowl win.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Dallas beat the Rams by 12 points, which has 76 net yards, net pass yards, like I said earlier. So Carolina, if they don't need a hundred pass yards, I mean, they can just run and play defense.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They could stick around in this game because I don't think the Rams are scoring a ton of points. So this game could be ugly for Panthers. It could be 16 to 6. That's still, that's still a push. It could be 16 to 10. That's a cover. So I like the Panthers here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So the market agrees with Pete at saying Arizona is not only better than Seattle, but much better at being this two and a half now, but it was three when it opened.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Um, Seattle's defense, you're right, terrible, 30 seconds in yards per play, but it's not like Arizona has a shutdown unit there either. They're 20 seconds in yards per play. Seattle's offense ranks second in yards per play behind Buffalo, first in rush, third in pass. They are a very good offense at this point with a good quarterback, a quarterback who is better than Kyler Murray as a quarterback.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Not as talented, can't do as much on the field. Definitely playing better as a quarterback right now in engineering and offense. You talk about the mental mistakes and the clock management and that shouldn't have happened.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That doesn't get fixed in a week. This is the stuff that happens with that, that team, the way they're coached.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And with that quarterback, it just keeps happening and I just can't expect that they're going to regress now, you know, to the mean and do start doing smart things all of a sudden in a week six of this season.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Arizona played Philly close, but it was a bad spot for Philly on the road. Dallas was coming up next. Philly had to go out west on this road game. Uhm, that was always going to be a bad spot for them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, I think the Seattle has the better quarterback here. I think Seattle has the better coaching staff here. I know they're at home and they're catching points. So I love Seattle plus three is a best bet. I also have the over 50 and a half is the best bet because we're just going to keep playing Seahawks overs.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, against a bad defense like the 49ers. Atlanta is now 5-0 against the spread, uhm, after that rally. Uhm, I'm still not that high on them. This is a tough spot for San Francisco, not the travel really, but just coming off an easy win. They have Kansas City next, uhm, so I don't know that their head's gonna be in this game.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Their defense is first in rush yards replay, first in sack rate, but they are dealing with injuries. We know Bose is banged up, Mosley out for the year. That's big for them. Uhm, the power rating, say San Francisco is the value here, but I don't really like the spot, so I'm staying away. Probably lean to the under now that it's up to 44 and a half.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I was trying to stay alive all year, so I wanted to save Tampa for this week and didn't use them last week, use the Jaguars now I'm out of Survivor. So I was like the, the, uh.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I don't know if you want my advice, but if you have Tampa left, use them. I think a lot of people use Rams if they had them saved. I couldn't because I had used them earlier. I used them in week two.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] People are wanting to use Green Bay here. I use them in week four against New England. So those are off the board. So I was looking at a road team, either Tampa or San Francisco or potentially Baltimore, but I was kind of staying away from Baltimore. So my, my, my sneaky one is the Chargers. I wanted to use them earlier in the year before they went through those injuries. Um, so I didn't get to use them in week three like I planned to.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, we go Bucks at the Steelers. Uhm, that line is 8. I don't think we've talked about yet. I don't love the Bucks covering there. Uhm, but I think just based on who we're using later in the season, uhm, that the Bucks is the way to go. I think Niners would be fine if you want to use them, but considering what Pete said about them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Playing well when they have to stay out east, uhm, but the, I think I have bucks one, uhm, in my article. I had the Rams too, just cause you can't ignore, you know, the match up there. Uhm, then I had the Chargers and then the 49ers in my, in my column.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Jets coming out two straight wins. I think the public wants to play the Jets here. Uhm, and that's why you see the juice there. He wants the line want to be that back down at seven. Uhm, and that's what that juice means. Uhm, I, I at seven, I kind of leaned toward the Packers at minus seven.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, the offense for the Jets didn't play as well as 40 to 17 suggests last week. Aside from Bright, Priest Hall's big catch. They were just 4.4 yards per play. Uh, Zach Wilson had 131 pass yards if you take that play out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So if Green Bay is just bad now, maybe it doesn't matter. And I know that we're keep waiting for Green Bay to get their feet under him. But at home, I still trust them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Especially against a Jets D that struggles on third down where they're 28th. Uh, Green Bay's offense ranks eighth on third down. I think they can put drives together, stay on the field and, um, and put up a nice little point total here. And then we'll see if Zach Wilson can get the back door cover. So at seven and a half, I don't want to play it, but at seven, I would lean Green Bay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] My lean is to the Steelers just cause I think this is a bad spot for the Bucks. Uhm, it's a big number on the road.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, I think there's some excitement with Pittsburgh and Kenny picking a quarterback. I thought Tampa's offense would light up Atlanta's defense and they really didn't. They should have run away with that game.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So this line feels a little high after that whole hum day. Uhm, but you know, I'm not looking to play it, it's just a loop.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you can get three, I would take Patriots plus three. It's just, it's two and a half in the market right now everywhere. And that's just a lean for me there. It's weird to me that New England would lay three last week with how.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, the Detroit offense was playing and that's why I had Detroit as a best bet. Market was obviously right. I was obviously wrong there. So I came to this one being like, okay, well now New England's fine with their third string quarterback. So they're obviously going to be at least pick them on the grounds, maybe even favored.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And now the Browns are three. So I don't understand what the market is saying about New England. It just seems to be like so schizophrenic week in and week out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, like Miami minus six against Pittsburgh to me, this is a line that isn't anticipating, um, Teddy back yet or any of the quarterbacks back yet. I think it should be higher if he's back and I think he will be back. You guys mentioned that you think he's back for this game. I think he's definitely back for next week at the very least.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And scalers aren't even close to that. I think they'll probably look better this week, but what if Tampa Bay stomps them like you guys are saying?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That line is going to be north of seven, I think, with Teddy, a quarterback. So getting into minus six now, I think is good. My other one is Tennessee minus two against Indy. Tennessee is on a buy this week, so they can only get healthier. They're not going to do anything that makes people not believe in them. Indy certainly could against Jacksonville again. What if they get, you know, can't score points again against Jacksonville?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, I have the game right now as Tennessee minus four. I can't see Indy playing well enough to get it to go up two points. So I think I'm going to have a value at minus two either way.

[Assistant] What's up everybody? Welcome to the Pixix Podcast, CBS Sports Daily NFL Podcast. I'm Wilbert Zun. I'm your host. We might knock this thing out on Thursday, October 13th.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you're listening to the podcast the day after, it's probably Friday, October 14th. However you consume the podcast, we appreciate it. We're live on YouTube after every prime time game from now until the end of time. Joining me to break down.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A game that occurred on a field and involved football people who profess to be football players.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I would give the game a, uh, the same grade Pete Prisker gave E.J. Manuel. Big.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I would beat this game over that one because the expectations and like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I thought this game was way more fun than last week's game. Last week's game was like fun for like seven minutes while I was like limping to overtime. Uhm, Commanders, Washington Commanders moved to two and both teams, the Bears and the Commanders moved to two and four as Washington beats the Bears 12 to seven. Uhm, if I were to tell you,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you told Ron Rivera, you're going to be outgained.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You're going to run 16 less plays in the Bears. Carson Wentz is going to go 12 of 22 for 99 yards. No touchdowns and somehow no interceptions. Do you think Ron Rivera is chalking this up as a W or an L?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I mean, I was kind of surprised that Justin Fields didn't have any.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, but the bigger concern for me with the Bears is what the schematic approach they took with Justin Fields in this game and that you would have Justin Fields who is an incredible athlete.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Didn't do a very good job of it. You know, you had the, what, the touchdown pass and then the.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, you know, you had some scrambles and a huge play to get down to the goal line.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, it's it's it's kind of unfathomable that they don't use his legs or.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, and I, I know you, we don't want to cut the field in half or whatever, but roll him out and give him more. Absolutely. I mean, that's fine.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, clearly he's not rea- and look, his offensive line is, is not very good, but like, you know, that first, um,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Particularly when it's a condensed, it's a condensed space. It's harder to, it's harder to complete passes there. And we'd seen Justin Fields, like, like, gets you out of a great play that, uh, is it Ryan Griffin that he was going to?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, just throw it up in the air. The guy's running underneath it. It's a touchdown. Um, I mean, the Bears had 21st down, so Washington's 14. They went five of 13 on third down, but they went, the problem is they went one of four in the, in the one of four on fourth down, oh, and three in the red zone and oh, and three on goal to go.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That is just not gonna work. You're not gonna win any football games when you do.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Your defense isn't very good, but that offense, you don't feel like they're going to go 95.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's weird because you're on the Chicago 38, and if you pump from there, you feel like such a coward. And if you- No, Chicago 30.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's like fourth and two, fourth and one on the goal line. He's like, uh, take it the way it gave so that nobody can question me. Um, I mean.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, that's like right in the tough zone where it'd be 48 inches like is a, I mean, Joey slide kicked.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, but that's not, if you, if you go for it and you fail, you don't give them, yeah, you're basically like forcing them to get an extra first down.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, exactly. I mean, look, it was a, I thought the other thing that was a mistake too was the, the Bears went forward on fourth and 16 with three timeouts when you do the same thing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ball, ball and, uh, the ball when bot, uh, had 18% win percentage to go for it on fourth and 11, 14% to punt their 13% for a field goal attempt. So you go for it on fourth and 11.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Once they got the delay of game penalty, it moved to 14, 14, eight. So at that point, when you got to fourth and 16.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Just pun it. You've got three timeouts and look, they got the ball back anyway. And that's basically the same sort of position because they got lucky and Jerry slide missed that field goal. But like just pun it. Ron Rivera is going to run three times and pun it right back to you. Um, and then you're going to, you know, you're going to get, you're going to get your shot. I, I just, I did not like like.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, I mean, Tom Brady talked about it. He said, man, he's like, there is a bunch of bad, he's like, I watch it. There's a bunch of bad football being played. I saw Brandon Thorne who, um,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Does his, uh, sub stack trench, trench warfare and also writes for, uh, establish the run.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Pointed out that there's really just no, and this is probably what the, to your point, Wilson, there's not a lot of, there's like basically one or two good offensive lines right now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Right. But like when you have a bunch of bad offensive lines, it's going to lead to a bunch of bad football. Like it's just, yeah. I mean like the,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Four, four in one teams. Everybody else is basically like, you know, right there around 500. It's going to be a really interesting playoff race because of that. Uh, let's take a break when we come back. We'll talk about.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Longest touchdown drought of our lives. Next. So we mentioned bad football. Well, poor Al Michaels and Kirk Herbstreet. They went 90.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think it was 106 minutes of game time without a touchdown.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like before Dante Pettis scored that touchdown, which by the way, that could have easily been overturned. No, that's a touchdown. He's juggling a little bit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When they were coming back from commercial, I guess I just missed them kick the extra point. I thought they were going to be looking at it when they came back. I was surprised. The previous Thursday night football touchdown.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, the other thing too about the, like, the Bears, uhm, I'm not sure why they didn't give Khalil Herbert more, more carries. Like, I think he and David Montgomery should basically be splitting the carries. You know, Felix Jones Jr., you mentioned, uhm, like, that's the, that's the only help they got. Justin Fields is obviously, I guess they got Ekonomi of St. Brown and, uhm,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It, it defied logic. What the, it's like these teams didn't understand.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The bears in Washington both feel like they don't understand the concept of fashioning.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Their system, their setup, their choices around, you know, the personnel that they have. I mean, and I get that, you know,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, I saw somebody in the comments mention that, you know, the Bears receivers were open and Justin Fields just needs to peel the trigger. And that's, that's, that's fine, but like. Well, that's what we said earlier.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's a, like, if he's not pulling the trigger, then you need to set up something where he is, uh, more easily able to pull the trigger. Like, figure out a way to, to help him out. By the way, um.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Indeed. Um, all right, real quick. Uh, Ron Rivera. We'll try and get this, see if I can make this work. Oh boy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Rivera stormed off after that. Uhm, of course he was asked about the report in Seth Wickersham and Don Vann. Did that, did that audio come through okay?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So in, in Seth Wickersham and Don Van Hatt's lengthy story about Dan Snyder and, and why, and I think, I think, do we want to cover anything else in the game or can we, can we get a pivot to this?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is a long story about basically, uh, you know, and Seth and Don are very well connected when it comes to, uh, owners and like, you know, the league meetings, they know people, these are how they get these stories out there. They talk to a lot of owners, personnel people.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's very clear in that there's a sense that the league wants Dan Snyder to sell, sell this team and.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You heard Al Michaels on the broadcast as well say, you know, he's like, this is just.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I know. Yeah. I mean, if Al Michaels is saying that on the Amazon Thursday night broadcast.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He has a very good reason to believe that that's what the league wants and what the league is trying to have happen.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] One of the big things too is that it seemed like, cause, so, for better or for worse, you can, if you're an NFL owner, you are not going to be frowned upon by your fellow owners for losing football games, for doing things that


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Society would frown upon, but you will be frowned upon if you lose money.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And now, uh, Dan Snyder has been reported as sort of everybody kind of knew has really botched the attempt to try and get a new stadium. Um, FedEx field is the worst stadium in the league by a pretty wide margin and Washington fans don't want to go there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The media set up is miserable. The fan set up is awful too. Remember the collapsing, uh, Jalen Hurst almost got killed when like the thing collapsed last year. Um, point being is that it's, it seems like it's coming to a head. Dan says in the story too, it was like Dan Snyder's like, maybe


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Having earners in Goodell tailed by PIs and digging up dirt on all these guys and, and you know, basically.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Blackmailing or is he bluffing? Uh, what was y'all's takeaway? You know, I'm just curious, like takeaways from that and.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And or do you think, I mean, it's hard to imagine Snyder selling unless he's absolutely compelled to.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think it's probably closer to a middle ground, but I would assume that Daniel Snyder was pushing the wince thing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Um, and I'll, I'll, I'll say, you know, I've been sort of saying, I don't think Ron Rivera would is, not that his seat wasn't hot, but that he wouldn't get fired just because.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's built up so much cash in the organization. The sense of the last couple of weeks is, as they've continued to lose games. I think that's, I was probably wrong there. I mean, I think Daniel Snyder's reemergence.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, NFL spokesman declined to answer questions about whether Schneider's suspension has ended, saying a statement that Goodell's decisions have been, quote, based on a comprehensive workplace review conducted by Beth Wilkinson and the grounds were identified in the public statements, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. A league source says Goodell is operating on the premise that Schneider is still under active investigation and his limits imposed on him will continue.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Um, the, uh, look at Eric K made it. God, Billy, what a suck up. Yeah. Billy, what's that? Oh, Billy knows who to suck up to now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, good job Billy. Um, the, uh, and the Jerry Jones stuff in there too. It's like, apparently Jerry's been kind of like, like Dan Snyder trying to reach out to Jerry. Cause you know, I, my theory has always been that Jerry loves Dan Snyder because he will do whatever Jerry tells him to do. And he's a terrible owner. His team doesn't win football games.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Right, exactly. Like Jerry's not answering his calls, not helping him out. So like he's trying to reach out. Uh, there's also a thing in here about how, uh, Snyder's, Snyder's strategy is to quote, run out the clock on the congressional and league investigations, betting that Democrats will lose control of the house in January. And in the committee's interest in his franchise, a person close to Snyder says, which is just, you're like, I'm just gonna...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Filibuster, like, like physically filibuster the, this congressional investigation in my thing. But as, um, Wickerstein and Venata point out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The illuminating factor is the question of what white, Mary Jo White, the investigation, who's been investigating this for nine months, what she finds about the alleged sexual assault of a woman on his plane in April 2009.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Right, but that's if they find something that he personally, uh, committed some type of sexual assault, then


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then there's the allegation that he tried to pay him a million dollars not to interview with, uh, Beth Wilkinson.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think my favorite part about this whole report was that uhm, alright real quick, it's uh, it's like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No one from the Washington team was allowed to speak with, uh, with the, um,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] With, with, with us on this, on this, on this story. However, they did refer us to a statement from multiple partners at a, like a multinational law firm.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, this is, this is one more thing about the Snyder thing. I love this paragraph.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's like, but it's like a team spokesperson called it quote simply ridiculous and utterly false in quotes that Snyder ever said that he could blow up the league or that the league quote can't F in quote with him or that quote the NFL is a mafia in quote or all quote all owners hate each other in quote. It's like.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In that, in that story too, they said that like when, um, he was trying to push to get FedEx field to get the, the, the Superbowl.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That was his window. Somebody says Brady just looked under the couch cushions for change. Brady covered the fees for the, for the donation too. Like he, you know, Brady, Brady's I credit Brady for his.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, surprisingly quick need to donate a thousand dollars and a willingness to do it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, it's going to be because something comes out of this investigation for Mary Jo White or the owners.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Or the owners find out that he's been like doing, you remember they, somebody accused him of like, like basically like, uh, dazzling off like the ticket sales and like not giving.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And like these are like, like football billionaires who, yeah, I mean like it's, I wouldn't, I wouldn't, what do we think he has on Goodell?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What have you, what have you had like, like he could prove that Goodell, like the flight gate and, uh, and spy gate, like Goodell orchestrated him to take down the Patriots and Belichick. Like that would be fun.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Guy, I forgot about this. Under Snyder, the team sued season ticket holders who were unable to pay during the great recession in the late 2000s. Hey, you just.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's like the economy's collapsed and Dan Snyder's suing season ticket holders who just couldn't pay like the greatest financial crisis of our lifetimes. Uh, partway through the 2009 season, Snyder temporarily banned all signs for FedExField.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah. Uh, I mean, it's just unbelievable. And then the workplace stuff, the financials, I mean,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Right, like, I mean, I was, I was getting the Panthers or like Jimmy Haslam's terrible too, but like Dan Snyder, like not only does his team suck,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean like, I've uhm, when you walk out of there, like after you cover a game.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's like very sketchy in those parking lots. Like it's very dark and there's like lots of tree areas, not a lot of light. A lot of tree areas.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, that'll do it for us. Thanks for watching. Thanks for listening. We'll be back tomorrow. We got a picture in the podcast feed for tomorrow. Recap the entire week six on Sunday night.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For Breach. For Wilson. I'm Brince. What are you doing, Breach?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What's up, everybody? Welcome to the Pixix Podcast, CBS Sports Daily NFL Podcast. I'm Will Brinson. I'm your host. If you're listening to the podcast, it's Thursday, October 20th. Happy birthday, Mom. You guys can say happy birthday, Mrs. Brinson. Happy birthday. Happy birthday, Mrs. Brinson.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't blame her. That's Pete Prisco Mom. You know him and you love him. My parents do love you actually, Pete. Uh, and RJ White joining me. Of course, if you're watching, if you're, excuse me, if you're listening to the podcast, it's actually Friday, October 21st. I'm wrong. If you're, if you're watching the podcast live on YouTube, it's Thursday, October 20th.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, anywho, it's my mom's birthday, so happy birthday to my mom. Uhm, wonderful woman. Pete Briscoe, RJ White, what's up fellas? We got some best bets to do.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Indeed. Not a good week for anybody. Um, uh, it was a good week for a charity because the Jets won.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And Brady Quinn gave a thousand dollars. Uh, Dom, Dom, Dom in the chat points out, um,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He wanted to say thank you and please tell Brady, thank you for the donation to give a life house. If he finds a donor.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They will have to stay somewhere like that because we have state. So good, good for, uh, good for the jets for, uh, hopefully making a difference in Brady for being the guy who absorbs the financial cost of it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Wow. Do you think they're the second best team in the AFC East? No. I don't either. Um, let's get to the games because we're supposed to go quickly. We'll see how that goes. We start.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Couple of 500ish teams battling it out. The AFC South was just suddenly become.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think like the cults to, to get right back in if they want it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They are my, the Titans, excuse me, are at home. They're minus two and a half, a total of 42 that has dropped a bit. We're playing at 42 and a half. Uh, Derek Henry quietly, just absolutely destroying, destroying.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The, uh, the AFC South in 16 games since 2019, 24.4 carries per game, 137.4 yards per game and 21 touchdowns in that same span against Indianapolis. 23.6 carries per game, 113 yards per game and six touchdowns. Pete, does Derrick Henry destroy the Colts on Sunday in Nashville?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I like that better than my best bet of Tennessee. I just think we're going to get a Derek Henry explosion game.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, you know, Shaquille Leonard trending towards coming backwards a little more concerning, but we, we haven't, I mean, we've gotten some good Derrick Henry games. We just haven't gotten that like.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like all of a sudden, you know, it's like you're, you know, if you're, let's say you're watching Red Zone and it's like Scott Antle's like, well, let's cut to, uh, let's cut to Tennessee and see what Derek Henry's up to. And all of a sudden he, you know, rips off a, you know, a 75 yard.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't think he's gonna get there, I think he's gonna get there by virtue of like one or two big pops.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Where he, you know, you know, when you, he looks like a freaking...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, that sounds way more appealing than picking up these teams to cover the two and a half. RJ is typically smarter, better than I am, which I'm not afraid to admit. So I got the best middle Tennessee. Uh, it's, it's, it's not really a.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Process. It's more like I think Derek Henry is just going to go off on Sunday and have a huge game. Bucks in the Panthers. Bucks minus 11 over under 40 and a half. My mother whose birthday it is today called me yesterday.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] She goes, what? She was like, I was like, is this a heavy question or a light question? She was like, oh, for you, it'd be light. Like, oh, what? She goes, what should I watch when we go see Tom Brady play on Sunday?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] My parents have never seen Tom Brady play in a football game and they're going to get to see probably his last game ever in North Carolina.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What would you watch Pete if you were going to see Tom? What would you tell my mom to watch to look for if she was going to watch Tom Brady? I said pocket movement and the quickness with which he gets the ball out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You can't take the Panthers. You just, I mean, like, like everything about this game says 11, catching 11 points at home. You're theoretically upgrading at quarterback. Um,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know. I guess that's like it. Um, maybe you're showcasing Christian McCaffrey, like the Panthers are the worst team in football and it's, it's not really even close. I don't think, uh, you know, they, they fired their head coach, um, fired the defensive coordinator.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You just go two generations back of NFL commissioners.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Sure, and he's 100% correct. Now, uhm, I was asked about that possibility with the Carolina Panthers and my response was that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] David Tepper has already had one public battle.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] With a, uh, with a mun-municipality.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Rock Hill, yea. Right across the border. Like, you know, you can hit a 9 iron. Maybe for you a 5 iron Pete. But, uh, you can, uh, you can get there pretty quickly.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Point being is that, uh, he wants to upgrade Baker America Stadium. It needs upgrading.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's going to be tough to get public money for it. And the fastest way to.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, let's move on. Nobody cares about the Panthers. Enjoy the game, Mom.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Falcons at the bingo. Hey, look, you get to watch, you never see Tom Brady play. You get to see Tom Brady play. That's how I'm spelling it to her.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Actually, you know what? I did have the buccaneer. I'm taking the buccaneer as the best bet out of principle because the panthers stink. Like the panthers are trash. So give me a buccaneer as minus 11.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Falcons at the Bengals. Bengals minus six and a half over under forty seven and a half Cincinnati.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Finally got it going offensively in a big, big way. I was, I really wish this game was in Atlanta because then the, um,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The, uh, then the, the burrow and chase combo would be like going back and running like an old tour of the stadiums where they played in on their run to win in the national title. Cause they obviously played the SEC championship game.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, Falcons are second in rushing attempts in the league. Third in yards per game rushing. The bingles just a little bit below average in terms of rush defense DVOA. Falcons not very good in terms of stopping the pass. Could we see a lot of points here, Peter? Uh, you like anything else in this game?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The, uh, this is the burrow and the bingles and that offense. And I think I looked and it's going to be like.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's a really nice day in Cincinnati, like 78 and sunny. Burrows be chucking it around against this Falcon secondary that can't cover anybody. Jamar Chase, uh, I think I, I told, I put this out on a previous, uh, pod this week, but Jamar Chase is like 66 to one for offensive player of the year. I think that's a pretty good look given that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We've seen him have these explosive games. He can, he, you know, we know these voters are small minded, uh, recency biased, uh, you know, unintelligent people. I don't know any of them personally, but, uh, you know, they're, they're easily swayed by.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, maybe like, Pete is a veteran for all these awards by the way, but Jabbar Chase, like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If the Bengals win that division and get a high seed and he has a monster year and we saw him have a monster second after the season last year, um, yeah, I think 66 and one is a pretty good number. They've learned.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I like- Would you start Kyle Pitts or, uh, taste some Hillen fantasy?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeaah, Kyle Pitt's been very disappointing. Maybe he finally gets a go at this game. We both like the over there. Rounds at Ravens. There's a lot of big spreads this week.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ravens minus six and a half over under 45 and a half. The Ravens have had double digit leads in all six games this year. They're the 40th team in NFL history to do that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But the first one ever to do so without having a winning record, they're 18 and five all time at home against the Browns.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] These are two of the top seven scoring teams in the NFL and two of the top six teams in terms of yards per rush. Pete, can the Ravens hold onto a frigging lead for once?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I tend to lean towards the brown, I mean towards the ravens as well, uh, but I like the over in this one. I'm going to, I'm like, I'm like turbo.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I, I, there better be a lot of points this week because I got a bunch of overs, um, which is probably a bad time for my vets to take a bunch of overs. Don't care. Um, this, we've seen these two teams really like you have, you can score on the Ravens.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And you can score on the Browns. We, you know, we saw, like you said, Pete Bailey's happy to lit them up. Uh, Lamar Jackson has a huge, now, now this over by the way, it's not contingent for these best bets, but I, for the purposes of like actually wagering on it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Make sure Lamar Jackson and Mark Andrews are playing in the game because they are both listed as other lists is questionable Wednesday, but they were, um.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Don't bet it over and then find out that Lamar Jackson and Mark Andrews are not going to play. I would guess that they're.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Probable or even off the injury report, uhm, come Friday, you would hope. Uh, but, but if they, if they go in, you know, I, I think again, I think they will. I expect a bunch of points in this game. I like the over 45 and a half. Nick Chubb will pop off a couple of runs. Ravens will have a couple of deep shots on the field. Lots of points. Ravens maybe cover.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Maybe hold on to a double digit lead. We'll see. I'll take the over 45 and a half. Giants at the Jaguars.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Giants and the Bills are the only two teams in the NFL through six weeks to hold every single opponent under 24 points.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Pretty impressive. The Giants win. A Giants win in this game would match their most wins in the season over the last six years, which is wild.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, the Jaguars are one of 14 teams with a positive point differential and the only one with a losing record.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Extra Lawrence kind of having a breakout season for sacks, including a sack and three straight games. Giants, dead last in the NFL and rush yards allowed.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Pete, can the Jaguars right the ship that is getting a little shaky here?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, the Jaguars are the best bet too. And I mean, it's, I mean, I, I, I've been all over the Jaguars this year. I think Jacksonville is a better team than what we've seen the last couple of weeks. You're at home and it is a good spot, Pete, because I think everyone is going to bet the giants.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think you're going to see most people pick the Giants in this spot. Brian Dabble's done a heck of a job coaching this team up. You know, they, like I said, you know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They, they have been, they have every, they're the only team in the NFL this year where all six of their games have been one score or, or less, like eight points or less. They are.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And that's not to criticize them. It's impressive that they keep all these games close and they find ways to stack these wins. But it does mean that you're sort of, you know, a little bit smoke and mirrors-y.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In terms of how you're, in terms of how you're getting these W's, I think this could be a big time Travis ETN and or James Robinson spot because of the Giants inability to stop him running.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If he can, don't you think it's easier to learn to be a good pass rusher than to learn to be a good player against a run?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, better show up this week, cause you're gonna look like a fool. Make, make Trimbalky look like an idiot. Trimbalky's been quiet, hasn't he?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let's take a break. We'll ponder Trent Baalke's silence. And when we come back, we'll talk about a rematch. Superbowl, L-I-V. Next.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] 48 and a half, as I mentioned, Super Bowl LIV, Jerry Lance is out, so Jimmy Garoppolo is in. Uh, our, our podcasts are, I think that's his title, Director of, Director of Audio, or Director of, I don't know what, I don't know what his title is.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Junior director of audio podcasts, Eric Kay, complained about my revenge game narrative. I said that was simply to troll Pete.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like that's the only reason I bring up revenge games. This is, is, is this a Jimmy Grappler revenge game? Hosting the chiefs, the team that took out his Superbowl victory.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Bring back the parlay. Give the guys one more chance to prove themselves. If they lose, it's gone forever. The guys will try harder knowing that it is on the line. That is true. We will try harder. You'll do one more parlay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No practice for Jotuni with his ankle injury. So I think that's notable.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] All right, Tyler, uh, let's see. Who are the guys who are limited or did not practice? Nick Bosa, Drake Jackson, Trent Williams, Jimmy Ward, uh, Trevarius Ward, Eric Armstead, Mike McGlinchey, uh, Samson Ibukam. Ibukam. Ibukam. Ibukam. I always get his name wrong. Um, Trent Williams is limited practice, so that's interesting. If he goes back, that's a big one.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, you know what? Screw it. I'll take, uh, yeah, you're right. I, I'll, if I find another game I like to tease, I'll do that. Otherwise I'll keep it out. I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll decide before we finish. Seahawks at the Chargers. Geno Smith. Oh, Geno Smith Revenge Game.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yep. I like the Seahawks. Uh, and I, I love the over. I have the over 51 is the best bet. It's very annoying to think in over 51 and then you wait, you know, the next day you do the podcast and it's just down to 50, but it's great if you're betting it and you're listening to the show and you want to take the over cause you're getting a free point there. Um,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I agree 100% with you on Kenneth Walker. And I think I put that in my picks column. Like Kenneth Walker, props are great here. Take, take the, like it's good when you, when you ladder props is when you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like you basically take, like if, if his total 67 and a half rushing yards, you take the, you take that, you take the over and then you take Kenneth Walker, 75 rushing yards, Kenneth Walker, 90 rushing yards, Kenneth Walker, a hundred rushing yards and you start getting plus money.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And if he does pop off for a buck 50 and two, all of a sudden you have.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A big, big day on your hands. Um, I think he's a, he's a fun runner to watch. He's going to get a heavy workload from the Seahawks. And then the reason I like the over though is because Seattle's defense can't stop anybody.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And the Chargers, when you, when you get them in a spot where they have to try to come back or a much more explosive team than they are when they're sort of playing, uh, playing it tight. Justin Herbert will start cutting it loose. I think we see a ton of points in this game.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Love the over in the spot. I also think the Seahawks are absolutely live to win.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] On, uh, on Kenneth Walker, Steelers at the Dolphins Sunday night, the return of Tua Tonga Wailoa to Miami.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He is first in the NFL in yards per passing attempt. Tyreek Hill is first in the, in the NFL and receiving yards. And they're, uh, and Tyreek and, uh, Joe and Walter are both top five in receiving yards. The Steelers have allowed 31 plays of 20 plus yards this year, most in the NFL.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I got nothing, uh, in this game. I do think there's a chance for like sneaky points being scored. Uhm, you know, if, uh.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Bears are the Patriots. Monday night football Patriots minus seven. And actually this game, this might be up to like nine? Did I see that last night? Right? We got that line Billy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, well, we'll, we'll see in a second. Billy gets it together. Come on, Billy. Uh, Patriots minus seven and a half is the line that we are utilizing. I see, yeah, I see a Pats minus eight, uh, total down to 39 and a half.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, seven and a half still on Caesars. I mean, look, I figured by the way, I figured out who my teaser team is with the 49ers. Patriots.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's him saying, I'm going to snuff you out and, and, and slaughter you on Monday night, to me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I'm gonna take the Pats minus seven and a half is the best bet. And also, uh, as I mentioned, make the Pats, uh, minus one and a half in the 49ers plus eight and a half as part of the teaser. Look, Belichick doesn't do that very often.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, he came out in like heat praise on the Bears for being a great young team. Matt Eberflos's scheme, uh, the running game. He was talking about their special teams, everything they do well. I mean, everything's like, are they just like listing every player on the roster? He was talking about how Dante Pettis.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Who knows that the next four or five weeks can absolutely change the trajectory of the Patriot season. And he is going to, what'd you call it? Poor mouthing? Poor mouthing. Yeah. All coaches do it. Yeah. Well, you're just like, you're, you're hyping up a team that you're saying stuff you don't believe.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, yeah, it's sitting, it's sitting a message to your, to your team for sure. Uh, anyway, I like the Pats as a, uh, best bet and the Patriots in that teaser. I just think it's going to be a bloodbath. And I do agree with RJ. Like this is one where that line is going to move.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Towards if Mac Jones is announced back, it's going to go up to like eight or nine. So if you like the paths, go ahead and get it in now. All right, let's do some rapid fire picks.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, we're moving pretty quickly in general, so we'll just do, just, you know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Lions at the Cowboys, Cowboys minus seven over under 49. The Lions are giving up 34 points per game at 42.8.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] 40, 428.6 yards per game. It would be the second worst points per game in yards per game in the Super Bowl era. If that, if that holds on, uh, the last time the Lions won on the road was week 13 in 2020. The leading rusher was Adrian Peterson. Cowboys 24 sacks through six games is their most in that first six games since 1987. Crazy. You like the Cowboys in a teaser, huh?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I wanted to take the over as a best bet here. Another over who didn't want another over, but the issue is that Dax hand.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Remember that Russell Wilson game against the Packers when he came back early last year with it, with a hand injury. That's a hard.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's just hard to predict how good the Dallas offense will be. And I think that if they get any kind of lead.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Um, smh or as the kids say, Texas at the Raiders, another seven point game Raiders minus seven over under 45 and a half feet.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, another over for me. The Raiders have allowed 23 plus points every game this season. Uh, Nikko Collins, second in the NFL in yards per catch, but no touchdowns. Interesting. Texas also 29th in rush defense, TBOA and Josh Jacobs.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Maybe a Galaxy Brain, Davis Mills, Josh Jake, Davis Mills stack, uh, with Josh Jacobs, sort of, uh, sort of DFS setup. I could see that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Being something I do and then it fails miserably on Sunday. Jets at the Broncos. Broncos minus one and over under of 38. We have to assume.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We'll see how the line moves. The line was Broncos minus three.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then the Russell Wilson stuff came out and the line shifted down to one. Um, I mean, obviously Russell makes a huge difference in this game. I would assume he does. Yeah. Yeah. If he plays they're worse.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, Jeff Stevens is legit. Quinn and Williams, man. What a, uh, what a season for him so far. He's been a monster. He can't block him. Uh, I couldn't actually find him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, if we, Brady and I talked about this briefly, but like that's it. He's a good look for defensive player of the year, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think, I think, I think they basically apologize, right? That grade didn't meet our standards. We're sorry. Sorry.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, alright, Pete's got the Broncos as a best bet there. Billy, stop telling me to move on. We are going quickly through these games. This podcast is flying.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Packers minus five at the commendos over under forty one and a half Taylor Heinecke will start. Last win for Green Bay was the 2016 wild card game. Last win for Green Bay in Washington. Excuse me.

[Assistant] This is the worst record in Aaron Rodgers career through four games, through six games. He's been three and three, four times just as Tom Brady, Washington, tie one, most sacks allowed in the NFL.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Packers dead last in DVOA against the run. Is it a Bryan Robinson explosion game, Pete?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The national, like the conversations around Aaron Rodgers on Monday would, or in the Packers would be kind of like hilarious to watch.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, so you think that when he's saying simplify, when he said we need to simplify things, what he's saying is, hey, Matt, stop using motion and stop using pre snap motion.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let's recap our best bets. Pete's best bets. Jaguars minus three.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Commandos plus five, a Pats Cowboys teaser that gets a Pats to minus one and a half and the Cowboys to minus one, I believe. Broncos minus one, Steelers plus seven, Seahawks plus six, RJ's best bets.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Baltimore minus six and a half. KC minus two and a half. Miami minus seven. Atlanta since he over 47 and a half. Tampa Bay Carolina under 40 and a half. That's just looks like a great bet.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Teaser, indie plus eight and a half in New England minus one and a half. That also looks great. I like those already.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] My best bet's Titans minus two and a half, Jaguars minus three. I'm really chalky. Bucks minus eleven.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Falcons over 47 and a half, Ravens over 45 and a half, Seahawks over 51, Patriots minus seven and a half and a Pats in.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, 49ers teaser. A lot of bets this week.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If we all go, if we all finish above 500 this week, we'll run back to the parlay in week eight. Yes. Good deal. That is our promise to you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like a money line, like a money line parlay of all like, minus 400 favorites is way less of a possibility than a city. All, all 500.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] All right. That'll do it for us for the best bet show. Thanks for watching. Thanks for listening for Pete for RJ. I'm Brinson. We will see you guys later.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What's up everybody? Welcome to the Big Six Podcast. CBS Sports Daily NFL Podcast. I'm Will Rensen. I'm your host. It is, he said, fishing for his telephone.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Thursday, September 29th, if you're listening to podcasts in audio form. It is Wednesday, September 28th, if you're watching on YouTube, live on YouTube. And uh, Wednesday, you know what that means?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was, Brady, coming from a, um, a golf course. You and Pete Prisco facetimed me. And I think, I think it was maybe bad service. So you guys couldn't like hear me or see me moving.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Cause like all I could hear was, look at his chest hair. Look at the hair coming out of that shirt. What is he wearing? That's a lot of hair.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I believe my head hair to my, uh, the hair on my, like the hair on my toes. I think I could be entirely completely covered in fur.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well see, your thing is, and uhm, as, so like my buddy Jeff that I was writing with, uhm, even, you know, he said like, he even remarked.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But you always look like you're, like, you never look too sharp.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, no, but I mean like, you know, you always, um, but so like that's why I asked about the beard because like you're never like a five o'clock shadow guy. You're a clean shaver.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But like, you weren't like a five o'clock shadow, uh, like unshaven guy in the NFL either. No, but my dad was a military guy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And you did, you know, you were a professional athlete. That tends to be a little disciplined. And of course, uh, the,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We've been debating the, um, the merits of conversion, but I think the problem is when you're an actual Catholic, any, any, uh, any, uh, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Discount you get, I think it's pretty substantial if you know what I'm saying.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As I understand it, if you're getting the Catholic discount, you are approached sometimes and asked to maybe take that discount and give it back to the church.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Have you, have you said, I gotta go tinkle in front of, like, someone who doesn't have kids? Cause they look at you like, you're a loser. Dudes don't tinkle.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Exactly. That's the key point. So look, this official who is two feet, and if you're watching on YouTube, youtube.com slash pick six, you can see it. This official, is that Ed Huckley?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There are in the stands, at least by my quick count,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because Dan Olavsky has been running on the white line for so long. Jared Allen is already celebrating as you know, it's 69, nice. Uhm, and.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was watching that game when it happened and I was thrilled that you were.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I know, and I know what you would say on HQ and they're two drastically different things. I was like, what is Brady going to say on the NFL on Fox right now? Because I know what's going on in his head.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And like you're saying, like, you're just thinking like, oh my God, don't, okay. You have to say something about this, but you just cannot get fired.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, Stu Brumhill in the chat notes. Brady, you were so good with the pump analysis. Three hand clapping emojis. I concur. Uh, that's actually why I wouldn't texting you to be like, Oh my God. Hey Brady. Like what's going on? Like are you calling? You're calling an NFL game. I was actually like.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was like, I don't, I mean, you've probably, you've seen the Key and Peele thing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I believe, by the way, because he scored twice in this game.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I believe on the first touchdown, he went...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't want to, I don't want to knock your producer at the NFL and Fox. I'm sure fantastic person and great, great job producing, but they should have brought Mike prayer on the other thing I am kind of curious about. And I do agree that like the two person factor.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, probably contributed to it a little bit, but I sort of wonder if Jamal Williams did the first move after the touchdown and the officials like, all right, we don't want to call this. They're going to get killed. Do that again. But did they say something or did maybe somebody from the league be like, Hey,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, Humpy McHumperson over there can't dance like that in the end zone. There's kids watching.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Look, I think you deserve an A plus for your in-game coverage of it because it is a delicate topic.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Do you remember the, cause I know that the, at one, it depends, obviously depending on which way you're facing, the press box could be up to the right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And the press box is open air. So I sort of wonder if there might be, when you open the doors, is there maybe, you're like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, right. And they're facing that creates the sort of the tunnel. Like I wonder if it may be.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And, and I believe that John Breach pointed this out on the, uh, recap podcast. I'm just going to double check here. I think on the possession before they attempted the fuel goal, Dan Campbell had gone for it on.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It has to be processed over a result. You cannot be a result. And even though Bill Parcell describes football as a results based business and he's not wrong.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You cannot, you cannot uh, criticize or compliment somebody's process based on


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The result, it needs to be right. Did he have a sound process in how he approached this? Um, I'm gonna say we got the ball out there own 44 after the miss field goal. And so like.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, you basically saved eight yards, maybe. Right. I'm fine with that too.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was, I don't, I was, uh, I was going to, well, I was debating on whether we take a break. I'll tell you what, let's take a quick break. Okay. And when we come back, Brady Quinn will tell me who's going to win the most important football game of the weekend. And maybe the year, maybe of all time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, ramifications, implications that will resound across the world of football for years to come. Of course, I'm talking about Saturday night. NC State.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think, I would, I don't disagree with anything you just said. Uhm, I think that the, if the hurricane weather is...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, intense and there's a lot of wind and a lot of rain if, if it is that I think it favors NC State, um, not on the field. I think Clemson is a better running team.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But I believe that it will impact the number of people in the stands.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The issue with Eclipsing Game 2 is that it may hit the west coast cross over.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Get back out into the Atlantic and the Gulf there. And circle back around. Or, and then, but when it, when it hits water the second time, it picks up. Oh, cranks up. It gets cranks up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The other thing, and I thought this was a really good point made by my buddy Chris Andrews today, uh, while we were discussing the game after our lovely round at, uh, Forest Creek. Shout out Jeff Hayes for the, uh, the hookup. Um, is that Dabba Sweeney came out in his press conference and mentioned very specifically


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If Dabo is specifically praising the zone defense, he probably loves the idea of us playing off coverage and allowing DJ to hit underneath shots instead of pressing up on his receivers.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Remember when all those players before the bowl game tested positive for, for, uh, ostarine or whatever it was?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, uh, let me, um, log back into my computer here, which has been closed. God, I mean, it's truly the best podcast. I'm so desperately hoping that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The people who are coming to fix your flat tire call you while we're on this podcast.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I bet Chopper Quinn has never missed an oil change.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] 50% of America is like, ah, I don't really feel like pulling it over right now. Now, like my mom and my dad will, and Bob will not operate on less than a quarter of a tank. And that's, that's their prerogative. I, as you might, uh, guess.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And not, not really afraid of running down to the end of the tank. Um, you know, the last time I lived on.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I'm a, I'm such an edgy guy. The last time I changed a flat tire, actually we were hiking up in, um,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was up in, uh, uh, Boone, I think, for the, for the weekend. And we went hiking.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And actually, uh, my, my pal, uh, Hogan who listens to this podcast. Shout out Will Hogan. Let's just call him Butch. Can we call Hogan Butch? Something better, something better name. So it's Hogan. It's not Butch.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We're, we're, we're hiking and we get this like little waterfall like spot and like where people pull up and we get down there, there's a bachelorette party there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Right, right, but he starts walking over there and just...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Slips on this like little rock and just goes square up and lands on his back and they're like, no, you can't have our beer.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But we fit, we're coming out of the hike and there's just like rainstorm coming down like crazy. So we're like trying to get out to the parking lot as fast as we can and we get out there. The Bachelorette party is still there. They have a flat tire.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, probably not the right time for it. Exactly. So read it through the lines. Dennis Allen, Saints coach, told reporters after practice about Jamis Winston.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Really, it's just more trying to rest and trying to make sure it's healthy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And it does feel like if the Saints go out to beat. Oh, they're playing the Vikings in London, aren't they? Yeah. Right. Yeah. 9 30 a.m. Eastern kick.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Very good point. Yeaah. I don't think Vikings actually recognized Sunday.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, smash the like button if you're watching. Shout out, uh, Jeremiah Murphy says, Brady Quinn is the, Jeremiah Murphy by the way. Brady Quinn is the most Irish name I've ever seen and I'm Irish myself.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know about you. I mean, you were, you're like so tall and like, you know,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know how you would, you know, in high school if you were looking to procure


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, adult beverages before the legal age to consume them. I'm not sure how you were able to do so.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I guess that's true. If you're the, if you're like the QB one, you're like, bruh, just go get me beer. Bring it back. Yeah. That's what you do. Yeah. So, um, I, uh, someone at, I just remember I was gonna leave all the parties out of it, but, uh, made a ID for me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Over spring break, I think it was my senior year in high school, maybe junior year, I can't remember. And it's St. Patrick's Day. They dye the river green. You have a couple of entrances, you go in.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I go, and I'm like, I'm like dumb enough where I haven't like really like.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Analyze like, you know, the whole, like I should have like remembered all the information. I'm not really thinking about it. And I go and I hand the lady my ID and she looks at me. She goes, happy birthday. I was like, uh, thank you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Whoever made this ID thought it would be hilarious to give me the name Randall Patrick McMurphy and make my birthday St. Patrick's Day.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Or even like a longer, like a Lambo or a Ferrari is like more room. Porsches have no legroom.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Weird stuff, yeah. I mean, yeah, you had a bunch of weird stuff happen while you were there. It was the weirdest thing that ever happened to you in Cleveland. Did it happen to me?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like, there were a lot of Brown's quarterbacks. It didn't work out. It would be, one would suggest a Brown situation, Brown's issue and not a quarterback issue, right? Well, yeah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Positive, like, like I think of you and maybe it's just cause you're drafted by the Brown. Like I think of you in a positive light with the Browns as, as positive a light as any, like a Browns player from that run you thought of.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] By the way, I love that uhm, I can't remember who it was. Somebody was like...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was like, yeah, I ever get to do this podcast. This is like a while back. I was like, I do this podcast with, uh, Brady Quinn. Yeah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And it's like, you know, like, all right, this is like, I can't believe I'm up listening to Princeton talk until three in the morning every Sunday for like the next, like however long, like welcome to hell on earth.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And it's like, oh, by the way, uh, you don't know about Brady Quinn football shows yet because.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like be prepared to hit the laser buttons, be ready to hit the dump button.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Do we have a dumb button? Is that a thing? No, we do not. We do not. I don't think so. I don't think technically...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know what the rule is for YouTube in terms of because we're live on YouTube, obviously. I don't know what technically the like.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So ultimately we could just like chop it out for the audio version and maybe we'd kind of get away with it. I don't know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You sent me a voice text earlier, which is what you do.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh yeaah. When we did the fantasy football draft-a-thon thing, Matt Leiter popped on with us.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I like, I was like, Brady loves sending voice texts. He was like, Oh my God, thank you. Yes. It's so weird. Like why does he do that? And it's not


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because there's usually this like kind of like.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I'm like, I know you're going to like sneak in some like Tuffy reference or some, like some things are casting and I always laugh. Anyway, you pointed out, uh, I think was it, I was in the car. She was like, hard. It was like, is it Ed Donatello we're talking about?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, and just to, just for clarification purposes for, for the listeners, but like when you say, I mean, like a shell coverage, do you, does it matter what sort of defense you're running or is that like the best? That is the defense. It is called just a shell coverage. So it's not like a.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We were, uh, we're gonna wrap the show now, uh, but we were hoping, I was really, really hoping that they, cause I know you would've said it, I was really, really hoping that the, the audience... I love chipmunks!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then you, and then, and like, ideally it was going to happen right at the end of the show. So it's like, I love chipmunks and then you go black. Like, like we cut the screen and I'm like, what is happening? I guess there's some chipmunks in South Florida. I don't know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Thanks for watching. Thanks for listening. Brady, as always, buddy, a pleasure. I hope, um, I hope you get that tire fixed and.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, we've done like three shows about the Buffalo Bills and their things they like to toss in the field. So I think we're probably fine. Okay. Yeah. All right. Always a pleasure. See you man.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Silver lining lost you tonight, right? Untrue, untrue. I support the best team in the NFC, which would be, uh, you are Philadelphia Eagles. That's right.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Look, I, at a point tonight, I was happy that the Eagles passed on Justin Jefferson just so we could have this moment against him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Or you may be, you may be high. That feels great. I honestly did not believe they were going to win that game. So I feel... Why? Why would you? You are sort of negative, Nelly. I'm not negative. I'm eternally optimistic.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This morning I woke up with a little pep in my step because I knew something was coming. I knew an eagle's wind was coming.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And, uh, also a new addition to the team. That's right. What?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Just so happens, has great qualifications, deserved this role, but so happens to be an Eagles fan. So I think this is a good time to bring in


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] New producer. I've been trying to get off this podcast for years. It finally happened. Let's bring Billy in.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Stop this nonsense. I'm not super comfortable, I love playing the underdog role as a lifeline


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like long diehard Eagles fan. Uh, just checking the odds now from our, our friends over at, at Caesars. They are now the second favorite in the NFC and fourth overall favorite to win the Superbowl at, at plus 1300. Good for Brinson Superbowl draft odds plus 500.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To win the NFC just behind the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, a little bit ahead of the defending champion Rams and the Packers who have won 13 games for the past three years. It's a, it's a wild rise. We knew that this rise was happening throughout the off season. A day before the season, they finally became the division leader to win the NFC East. This, this rise is a little unexpected, but.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I wasn't thrilled with how the defense finished the game last week. Tonight was...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think it was Jalen Hertz. Definitely his best half as an Eagles quarterback. And you know, they, they slowed down in the second half and kind of changed the scheme a little bit. But overall, one of his top performances as an Eagle in his, in his three years off and on starting.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That they took away the running game a little bit and he showed himself as a passer, uh, throughout that game, entered the game 15 to one to win MVP, exited that game eight to one to win MVP.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Continue on the Eagles focus real quick. I, I think that's one of the best cornerback performances I've seen in a long time from Daria Slay. He, you know, Justin Jefferson entered as the most dominating wide receiver force in the game. He was eliminated from that game by Daria Slay. He had two picks, could have had four or five.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, I think everyone on this podcast agreed that the Vikings went over the Packers in week one was the most impressive performance of week one. So to belittle the Vikings now when they were, you know, the highest rising team and all the power rankings and the team that shot up the board. You know, we're acting like the Vikings are.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I hate it. I like him defending the team but I hate the predictions.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They'll be favorite in a lot of these. Like the titans now, like.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's a home game, but on the schedule before the season looks a little tougher than it, than it does now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I am, uh, very clearly Team Hurtz, always have been, always will be. I don't like the conversations around them, but Ryan, would you have...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But I hope that gets settled pretty soon and that's not a conversation the Eagles do have the Saints pick. They worked on this draft capital with Howie Roseman, but what did you kind of expect from that situation?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] One. One. He's one and three, right Breach? One. One and three, yes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I never thought he would be intended to be used as a starter. I thought they would get creative with Doug and do some cool things with him. I thought Carson was the guy for the next decade and then his brain and his body broke.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He doesn't seek out the unnecessary contacts. Right. He's savvy about it where Josh Allen, it just feels like sometimes like he welcomes it. You know, some of the, these players say they got to get hit once to like really wake up and get into the game. Jalen is super smart about it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I wanted to, just before we had to break, you know, we'll lose a little Philly flavor and me and Billy will go into the background a little bit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like I said last year, I think he was already not the most top five accomplished quarterback runner, but I think just like as a quarterback runner, I think he's already up there as some of the best ever. He's got more to do to be in that Vic.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Cunningham, um, Cam Lamar territory, but I think he's, he's very much up there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We're just gonna have a lot of uh, stat correcting to do on this, this show if we keep up this pace. Uhm, I just wanted to ask Billy before we had to break as, as Damon asked in the chat.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Was Billy a listener? Does he know what he's getting into? So Billy did a great job and kind of showed that he had familiarity with the show and he's been listening. But Billy, the first time you listened and over the past couple of weeks, I want to know like your takeaways from listening to these guys.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I thought Breach was about to set up this like horrible stat for whence and then he dropped it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I said to myself a lot during the Sunday's action, man, there's a lot of parody going on. Yeah, exactly. That's what I'm saying.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Just sayin'. Can't have everything. Your pics are terrible. Congratulations.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't even know about you getting in a fight.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, I'll do it for us. Record time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Go ahead. You want me to answer that question for real?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] RJ three and three, the parlay didn't hit giants plus five and a half Jags plus two and a half Cowboys plus one and a half. It did have some life for a while. Then we took out the Seahawks. We won outright. Of course. Not that it would have mattered, but.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, it looks like the Jags were gonna win.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We're gonna be a little tighter schedule today. So let's dive right in and make some picks. We start with Sunday Night Football where the Bears head to Green Bay to play the Packers. The Packers now, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Aaron Rodgers actually holds the top two records for fewest points scored by a reigning MVP in week one following winning the award. Uh, three last year, seven this year, bounce back in a big way against the Lions last year. Will they do the same against the, against the Bears, Pete?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let's make that the first leg of the parlay. Look, you know, you go back and look at week two and I know we're not, we're comparing apples and oranges here, but week two of last year, Adams did have a big game, eight catches, 121 yards.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But it was Aaron Jones who I've been stumping to be the focal point of this offense who had the monster game, 17 carries, 67 yards in the touchdown and then six catches, 48 yards and three receiving touchdowns. A four touchdown game for Aaron Jones would not be surprised at all if he has a huge game. And I think.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, anybody sort of looking at the Bears and what they did in week one is probably tricking yourself because, you know, you can, like the Dante Pettis catch for 51 yards, I think.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And it's sort of a fluke play that, you know, probably weather driven. I don't think Justin, they had 27 yards at halftime, I believe. I don't think they get much done against this Packers defense. Uh, everybody should be embarrassed for Green Bay. And I think they show up and play in a big way. So, uh, RJ and I have the Packers is the best bet. And that's the first leg of the parlay Packers minus 10.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Speaking of another large spread for a team that lost in week one, the Texans are at the Broncos and the Broncos are favored by 10 with an overrun to a 45. Uh, Russell Wilson limping back to Denver after being, uh, uh, punked and embarrassed by his old coach Pete Carroll.

[Assistant] But I tend to lean towards the Texans here as well. 10 feels like a lot, especially with a 45 point total there. And you have the opportunity where Houston can come in and play well. You know, Russ hasn't played at altitude either, which is, I mean, obviously he's adjusted to it because he's been practicing there, but he hasn't played in an actual game at altitude, which I think is.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] At least worth considering. Houston just has major backdoor potential with Brenna Cooks and Nico Collins and Davis Mills singing it late. So I would lean Texans here, but don't have it as a best bet. Colts at the Jaguars.

[Assistant] Cults minus four over under 45 and a half. The Indianapolis Cults, Pete, have not won, I believe, in Jacksonville, Florida, your old stomping grounds where you did some of your most mischievous things in your life.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You really have like, just desecrated the entire state of Florida at this point, between Jacksonville and California.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Anyway, they haven't won since 2014 there. They couldn't keep the streak of, of failing to win in week one alive. Uh, or they, they, they kept the streak of failing to week one, winning week one alive after that tie with Houston last week. Now they're trying to break the streak of going to Jacksonville and losing. What do you think about this game here?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And you can say the same thing for the Colts too, like there were some real red zone issues, uh, you know, you saw with, uh, Alec Pierce, who, uh, did they put him on IR or is he just, no, he's in concussion protocol, but he's not expected to play, I don't think, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's not expected to play this game. I think that really does some damage to the depth of Indian wide receiver. He had a massive drop in the end zone. There's another bad drop of Matt Ryan pass, but if you look at the Jaguars, I mean, they were even worse in the red zone and.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They were moving the ball pretty effectively against Washington. They just couldn't punch it into the, just couldn't punch it in. I think Doug Peterson works on that this week. They get the red zone stuff a little bit tighter. They're able to score against a Colts defense that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I mean, Gus Bradley. Oh, it's Gus Bradley revenge game too, by the way. Uhm, I got the Jaguars. I think the Jaguars went it outright and.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I scored seven points last week against the uh, the Mighty Dolphins and they are...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Who's cleared, he's gonna play back at practice in this line move from like a, either maybe a half or a pick home to, to a full Patriots minus two. What do you think about New England on the road here, Pete?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I picked the bats to win the game and to cover, uh, not a best bet. I do have a best bet on the under though. 40 and a half is a low under. It's a low total. They could obviously get there with just a few scores, but you're looking at what the Patriots did on offense against the Dolphins. I mean, they are just sort of lost right now in terms of what they, they don't have any explosive plays down the field and Mitchell Trubisky.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And that Pittsburgh offense didn't do anything. It was the points, there was 17 points over turnovers. This is not a high scoring offense for the Pittsburgh Steelers. It is a team that cannot move the ball effectively. Belichick will do plenty of stuff to mess with Trubisky. And I think we're getting pretty close to seeing Keane pick it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, maybe not in this game, but after this game, I wouldn't be surprised if they go to him just because.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, even if you're one and one, if your offense is sort of lethargic for back to back weeks, you have to think about making a move.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Type, uh, type benson in the h cat if you, uh, if you like, uh, if you, if you want to help us out and hit the like button, smash that like button. Uh, so I'll take the under as a best bet on the Patriots and Steelers bucks minus two and a half at the saints with an over under a 44 Tom Brady.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Has not beaten the Saints Pete since he joined the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and he's a road favorite against the Sean Patonless Saints team that came back, came back in crazy fashion against the Falcons last week.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I'm not sure that the bucket, I read them as the best pet too. So add that to the parlay. We got Packers minus 10, Saints plus two and a half. I'm just not sure that, um.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like what we saw from the Buccaneers on Sunday night in Dallas is necessarily indicative of a team that is going to go on the road and dominate as a short road favorite. I mean, they were.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They took care of business against Dallas, but I think that's more of a Dallas issue than a Tampa issue. And so.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There are some holes with Tampa and you mentioned the receivers. I mean, if all those guys are missing, that's going to make it tough on Tom Brady and.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Probably leads to a lower scoring game. I think that you see the totals at 44. I think that favors the Saints. I think they'll find a way to turn Brady over and get the win as well.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah. And yeah, that's a great, it's a great point. I mean, you, you have to think that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, but I mean, it was like, it was like, if you were, if you just jumped into that game, you couldn't, sometimes you couldn't even tell, like if, like definitely who was, uh, who was doing it. All right, let's take a break and we come back more best bets from our blue ribbon panel of experts next.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Chet's at Browns. Browns minus six and a half. The Browns, I mean.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Fortunate to be 1-0 at this point. Got bailed out by the referees against Carolina after allowing just an embarrassing comeback from Baker Mayfield and that Panthers, that lethargic Panthers offense. Total here 40 and a half, Pete. Any thoughts on this one?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I'm sort of the same way. I think the Jets can win this game. You know, Robert Salas made some weird comments this week about.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Jets in, in, at least in the first half until the explosive plays from the Ravens sort of opened up, opened up that game. They did a good job of bottling up the run. I think it was the lowest rushing, first half rushing total.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Since Lamar Jackson was drafted for the Ravens, um, and so that, I think that bodes fairly well for this, this matchup against the Browns. Carolina had 25 plus missed tackles in most of them with Nick Job. And granted, he's, you know, second highest yards per carry, uh, in NFL history.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like through, I think it's like 500 rushing, minimum rushing attempts ahead of Jim Brown, just behind Jamal Charles. He is capable of making people miss, but if Cleveland can't run it effectively, then they're, that offense is really going to struggle. Like RG said, six and a half, which you're going to be set. That's just too many points. I think the Jets went outright. I don't.
