00:05 Let's get to the next one here.

00:07 The Tampa Bay Buccaneers end up winning in week one against Minnesota.

00:11 And the odds makers, Matt made them a favorite at home this week against

00:14 the Chicago Bears.

00:15 Bears also didn't look great against the Packers.

00:17 By the way, this line opened at bucks minus three.

00:20 The money is coming in on the Bears.

00:22 So it is plus two and a half, total 40 and a half.

00:27 Should the Bucks be favored in this game, Matt?

00:28 Does this look right to you?

00:30 >> Yeah, I think they should be favored being at home for sure.

00:33 These were two teams that I didn't have high hopes for

00:35 in general going into the year.

00:36 The Bears looked maybe a little worse than I expected last week.

00:41 The Bucks looked a little better.

00:42 But there's that turnover luck that we always hear about,

00:45 especially betters always like to focus on.

00:47 I think Tampa was plus three last week in turnover margin.

00:50 The Bears were minus two.

00:51 That tends to even out.

00:53 Doesn't mean it's gonna even out all at once in the very next game.

00:57 But I think we could see some evening out.

00:58 I think there's a reason that that line is moving towards the Bears.

01:02 At two and a half, now that it's under three,

01:05 does that change things a little bit?

01:06 Yeah, maybe a little bit.

01:08 But I think the Bears with the points make sense here.

01:10 I think these are two pretty even teams.

01:13 And Justin Fields is such an interesting quarterback cuz he's

01:17 the type of quarterback that could fumble your way out of a game.

01:21 And he's a guy with his elite running ability who can get you right back in

01:25 a game in a hurry.

01:26 You just kinda never know.

01:27 Baker may feel similar for different reasons.

01:29 So yeah, I think the points there with the Bears make sense.

01:33 I still wish it was three or above, but at two and a half,

01:36 that's still not bad value.

01:38 I just think the 40 and a half number is interesting too,

01:40 cuz I don't expect a ton of scoring in this game unless turnover set

01:44 the offenses up with short fields.
