Transcript

00:00 Michael Fabiano here, joined by Jen Piacenti.

00:02 And Jen, let's talk about the big game this weekend in Minnesota

00:05 between the Chiefs and the Vikings.

00:07 What more to the point will Taylor Swift actually be at the game again?

00:11 Eh, I don't really care about that.

00:13 But what I do care about is that the Chiefs are a five and a half point

00:16 favorite against Kirk Cousins and the Vikings.

00:19 How do you see this game shaking out?

00:21 Listen, the Chiefs didn't cover the spread for us last week,

00:24 but I fully expect them to shake it off.

00:27 Yes, that was a Taylor Swift reference.

00:29 But let me tell you something else I'm excited about.

00:31 I actually am excited should Taylor Swift show up to this game,

00:34 because as you may have heard, Mike Kisicki

00:36 said that this is really good for the tight end positions.

00:40 Now I'm suddenly seeing a battle between TJ Hawkinson, one

00:43 of the top tight ends in the league, and Travis Kelsey,

00:46 who might be really trying to show off, for his girlfriend.

00:48 So yeah, I am definitely taking the Chiefs here.

00:51 They're the reigning Super Bowl champions.

00:53 And Patrick Holmes is facing a Vikings defense

00:57 that has allowed the fourth most completions this year.

00:59 So Patrick Mahomes, I know you had to slide.

01:03 It cost a few of us the cover last week.

01:05 You did the right thing for your team.

01:06 But if you do something like that again this week,

01:09 we are never, ever, ever getting back together.

01:14 Is that another Taylor Swift song?

01:16 I have no idea.

01:17 Unless it's Motley Crue, I have no clue.

01:19 Kansas City, 9 and 11 against the spread overall,

01:22 with Mahomes dating back to last year.

01:24 5 and 6 against the spread as road favorites in that time.

01:27 I don't know if there's any odds about Taylor Swift being there

01:30 or not being there.

01:31 But again, this is all about KC and Minnesota and Gens going

01:35 with the Chiefs minus 5 and 1/2.

01:36 Thank you, Jen.
