So, if you look at the odds for our next game to discuss in the
00:06
Twin Cities, it would seem rather simple. The Vikings,
00:10
five and a half point favorite, a ten and two football team
00:14
that is covered in eight of their ten wins. Minnesota
00:18
should cruise against an Atlanta team. Oh boy. They have
00:22
dropped three straight. Kirk Cousins has thrown six
00:25
interceptions in total in these three consecutive losses. They
00:29
haven't covered in four in a row. It should be simple for
00:34
the Vikings and yet, I feel as though this weirdly might be
00:39
the spot for the Dirty Birds to strike an upset. How do you
00:42
feel about this Minneapolis matchup on Sunday? So, Kirk
00:48
Cousins gets to go play with the team that he left for the
00:53
bag of money that Atlanta was giving him. My goodness, what
00:57
fun is this game going to be and I'm kind of, I'm kind of
01:01
with you here. Listen, the thing that impressed me the
01:03
most about Atlanta last week has nothing to do with Kirk
01:08
Cousins and the four INTs because you're always going to
01:10
get that from Kirk Cousins. It's who he is. Yeah. But Ben,
01:13
the whole knock on Atlanta was defensively, they couldn't get
01:16
to the quarterback. They couldn't get any pressure. They
01:19
couldn't get any sacks. They couldn't. They had no edge
01:22
rush. They had nothing and then I'm watching Atlanta
01:25
defensively last week finally put it together and they were
01:28
hitting Herbert left and right. He was under constant duress.
01:34
If that defense shows up here against Minnesota and does that
01:37
to Sam Darnold. Yeah, you could get the you can get the Sam
01:42
Darnold version of Kirk Cousins last week with four
01:45
interceptions. So, I think Atlanta very much live in this
01:49
one here. I think the five and a half is kind of all it tells
01:53
you everything, Ben. Why five and a half? So, it's not quite
01:56
a touchdown but it's still more than a field goal. It's kind of
02:00
in no man's land that number. I think Atlanta is very much
02:04
alive to not only cover but win this game outright.
