00:00But doc, I just want to start with this week 18

00:03real different

00:05approaches change

00:06For for you, I believe it was week 17 at the time

00:09But the the regular season finale and and just how teams approach this week around injury

00:16Well, I would argue that sports injury central six score.com is most useful this time of year when there's so much flux

00:24and we treat uh bench players resting players as

00:28Injured or out and we calculate that into the sixth score and because of that we've been actually pretty hot

00:33We're uh hit our guarantee again yesterday. We're 10 and three on the year last sunday against spreads and totals

00:41We were 11 and one and yeah, it's weird week. No question

00:45You can't do the regular handicapping without knowing who's playing and who's not and all the different injury slash

00:53Rest scenarios and we have all of that

00:55And for you know, i'm sure that is why just to give people an example, uh, the eagles today a very poor the

01:03Offensive six score is a almost gives me chills as an eagle fan. It's a 54.5

01:07That's rest though. Uh doc

01:15no question and what we've been saying all along about jalen hurts is that

01:20They have not pushed him through the concussion protocol because if he has a setback

01:25Or plays and gets another concussion or has any setback that would mean he would miss

01:32The playoff games and maybe the entire playoffs second concussion or setbacks

01:38Usually means multiple weeks out. So the eagles have just played it safe there with jalen hurts, but he'll be fine for the wild card brown
