00:00Pukanukuwa has been that guy, right?

00:01He has been that dude that I think

00:04every time you see the high number,

00:06you want to just jump in and say, let's go with it.

00:08But I'm a little concerned about this one.

00:10I'm concerned because of the weather.

00:11I'm concerned because I think with Pukanukuwa here,

00:15you might be looking at an under.

00:17Now, let's also take a look at how this number is moving

00:19because you are seeing right now,

00:22some of the weather starting to impact some of these numbers.

00:24You'll see this one started out as 89 and a half,

00:27but this morning it's gone to 86 and a half in most markets.

00:31So you're starting to get pushed.

00:33So Vegas is telling you their expectations

00:35are being lowered,

00:36and maybe you should start lowering yours too.

00:39So it's very tempting.

00:40It's been a lot of Pukanukuwa.

00:42He's been great, but so is that Eagle secondary.

00:44Cooper Dejean, Quinian Mitchell have been fantastic, right?

00:48If there is a team that is built to shut them down,

00:50and I get it.

00:52Last time we saw this matchup when it was in LA,

00:55it was Saquon Barkley running amok

00:56and embarrassing this defense.

00:57I get all that, but that's in the past.

01:00If you're telling me Sean McVay isn't ready for this,

01:02you're wrong.

01:03He's a great football coach.

01:04He's going to have a better game plan.

01:06Can they stop Saquon Barkley altogether?

01:07Probably not, but can they slow him down

01:09and at least keep this game close?

01:10Maybe, especially now that the elements are part of it,

01:12but because the elements are part of it

01:14and Vegas has already started to push that number,

01:16I was under the 89 and a half at 86 and a half.

01:18I still think it's an under here for Pukanukuwa.

01:20It could be tricky today with the elements.

01:23So give me the under on a big Pukanukuwa number.
