00:00The Detroit Lions, a number that's moving around here, I want to quickly Donnie just

00:04check in with you where you, because it's very relevant for your favorite way to play

00:08this game today.

00:09Correct.

00:10How are, where are you seeing the spread line up right now between Detroit and Washington?

00:12Which is key, because you've got nine and a half to FanDuel, you've got nine and a half

00:15to BetMGM, nine and a half to 365, you know Las Vegas outlets around late nine points,

00:19but the only eight and a half that's been sitting there firm this morning has been through

00:23DraftKings here, which as a teaser player, which we'll bring up just a little bit with

00:26these two games and maybe factoring into a best bet today, we'll get to that later.

00:30But that is a big number and a big crossover point, but it looks like the decided favorite

00:34has been all week with Detroit.

00:36We were worrying if it would get to 10, now nine and a half are out there.

00:39I don't think we see 10, because that's just a massive number that people just bet the

00:42minute it gets there.

00:43I think it hovers around nine, and if you ask me this question, it's nine and a half,

00:47the closer we get to game time, it's more likely to go to nine than 10, I think we can

00:50agree.

00:51Yeah, I think, I think so too.

00:53What I think is interesting is, because in terms of key numbers, the difference between

00:57eight and a half and nine and a half doesn't really seem like much.

01:00And I've heard some say, oh, nine and a half is probably out there to protect from the

01:06potential tease options, right?

01:08So I think it is interesting that DK is holding out that one eight and a half number.

01:15If I'm curious, we used to do this a lot when we would do the pick sixes, Donnie, I know

01:19we can get into it more, but of the four options that are on the plate today, who,

01:27you know, six points, your direction is the most interesting option to you?

01:32Of the four options.

01:33Of the four options, if I had to pick one or pick two.

01:35Just one.

01:36Just one of those, I probably would say, honestly, it would be Kansas City.

01:39Down to two and a half.

01:40Just to win the football game, based on what I know from Kansas City and the health coming

01:44in here.

01:45Because we'll get to that Washington game and really go over it.

01:47Like I think Washington, for me, is more propensity to be a more dangerous football

01:51team, if that makes sense.

01:52Even I don't think either one of these road teams wins.

01:54That's just the way I look at it.

01:55Like at the end of the day, they go, wow, Washington walked in and beat Detroit by one

01:58point.

01:59So that's a big upset.

02:00That's crazy.

02:01But if I see Andy Reid and Patrick Mahomes outside of barring a catastrophic injury and

02:05just play the game out and they lose, I would be more shocked by that.

02:08So it would be the Chiefs for me.

02:09For you.

02:10For me, it would be taking Houston to 14 and a half, two touchdowns.

02:13And but I like both.

02:15I would take the points on either total, too.

02:1749 and a half, 49 and a half with the late game and 35 and a half with the early game.

02:25I believe we're going to have five out of all the totals.

02:28And you know, I love totals.

02:29I'm more intrigued about both of these games today from the total perspective than tomorrow.

02:33Yeah, I think, you know, what's interesting is I was not a not a pure teaser, but I was

02:38looking around at both of those dogs catching 14 and a half, and that's at a plus price.

02:44And one of the reasons it's at a plus price is at plus nine and a half.

02:49That's not a full six point teaser getting Detroit through the two touchdowns plus, which

02:54is one of the interesting elements of this game.

02:57And you can tell through that I like both dogs today.

03:00I think what's very interesting is, is there.

03:04So again, it depends how you are as a batter.

03:06But the ebbs and flows, if Houston pulls off the upset, do people get more confident that

03:13Detroit wins their game, covers their game, rolls within their football game?

03:17That's how people are.

03:18Yeah, because both number ones can't go down in the same day or right, or they both go

03:23down.

03:24Yeah, we have pandemonium tomorrow.

03:27It would be something if everybody's dream conference championship Sunday gets crushed

03:35today because the reality is, while that would be for Houston and Washington, unbelievable

03:42moments truly in the franchise for both would be top percent franchise moments.

03:50So many people are like, just give me Philly, Detroit, Kansas City versus the winner of

03:56Buffalo and Baltimore.

03:58Or we're going to get touchdown lines potentially in the divisional round.
