Transcript

00:00All right, let's move to Sunday and we will begin in London with the Jets and the Vikings.

00:04London actually gets a good game here with Minnesota and gang green.

00:08The Vikings, Femi, two and a half point favorites. Two and a half. Two and a half minus 110.

00:13Minnesota, 4-0. First place in the NFC North against Aaron Rodgers, Bobby Sala, and the Jets.

00:19Coming off the inexplicable home loss to the Broncos. Total is 41.

00:23Yeah, the market continues to try to catch up to the Minnesota Vikings and upgrade them every single week.

00:29And somehow the Vikings are surpassing those expectations.

00:32So that's why we have the market that we currently have where Sam Darnold is on a neutral field playing Aaron Rodgers.

00:36And Sam Darnold is a two and a half point favorite.

00:39Now, obviously a lot more goes into the football game than that.

00:41But just saying that on the surface with the quarterbacks, it's pretty wild to say out loud.

00:45And we're just four weeks into this season.

00:47Now, for me, my strategy with this game is to go ahead and wait.

00:51I'm going to wait to see if there's more Vikings love.

00:53And like, you know me, nobody loves this team more than I do.

00:56I've been pounding the table for the Minnesota Vikings all summer, and I've been pounding the table this season.

01:01But if this ever got to three, that would be way, way too much of an adjustment.

01:06I would like the New York Jets if I can get a three on a neutral field.

01:10Now, the tricky thing with the Jets, if you want to get into like the X's and O's and the schematics and all that stuff,

01:15they were clearly struggling with the blitz yesterday against Denver.

01:18Vance Joseph, that guy was blitzing like a maniac.

01:20Well, here comes Brian Flores.

01:22What does he like to do? Blitz.

01:24That's what he likes to do.

01:25So we'll see if the Jets and that coaching staff have figured out what plagued them this past Sunday when they go to London.

01:30But just from a schematic standpoint, maybe it's not the greatest setup for the New York Jets, but also for a Viking standpoint,

01:36like this is a team that's been an underdog quite a bit so far this season, other than when they played the New York Giants.

01:40Now there's expectations against like a good team.

01:43I still think the Jets are a good team.

01:45This is a little bit too much of an upgrade one week into the markets where it's the only New York Jets for me in this game.

01:51I said it in the open.

01:55I hate that I agree, but I do.

01:58And let's see where this market goes.

02:00Maybe we get a three with the Jets.

02:02Maybe it goes down to two.

02:03We don't lose anything.

02:04I think it's going to be, oh, man,

02:07taking Bob Sala against Kevin O'Connell is not going to feel good.

02:10And Sam Donald in a revenge game against the team that drafted him.

02:13I think it's also Jets or nothing for me.

02:16And that makes me sick.

02:17And, you know,

02:20where do you think the numbers going?

02:22And we'll move past this game in a second.

02:24We'll get to some other games.

02:26I think it's actually more likely to go to three than it is to, like, go to like one or pick.

02:30Should we just because it's minus two and a half right now,

02:33if we feel like we're going to get closing line value, like we should bet the Vikings,

02:37then if we think it's going to go to three?

02:39I mean, in theory, yes.

02:41But then I also think back to as a football fan, as somebody who just watches the sport,

02:45as much as Sam Donald has improved this year, it's still Sam

02:48Darnold against Aaron Rodgers and you're laying points on the Darnold side.

02:52I'm not. Darnold's been better.

02:54And look, I agree with you.

02:55Like, I'd like to bet the Jets also just just just saying, like, it's

02:58it's a little difficult there.
