00:00How do you think King Henry will do there?

00:06Awesome.

00:07Awesome.

00:08Because again, you've got the RPO.

00:10Is Lamar going to pull it and run?

00:12Is he going to pull it and throw?

00:13Is he going to hand it off to Derrick Henry?

00:16It's just, it's fascinating to see how this thing's going to work.

00:19And let's not forget the Ravens wanted Henry at the trade deadline.

00:22They couldn't work out the deal with the Titans.

00:24Now they got him as a free agent and he's got a, he's got a two year deal here.

00:28So we'll see how he does.

00:29The word I got from leaked sources on Henry, the long speed isn't quite what it used to

00:34be, but everything else is there.

00:35He hasn't lost it yet.

00:37Probably does have two good years in him.

00:39But the one issue that you have for them is what's going to happen on defense.

00:42All right.

00:43What about the Bengals?

00:44Yeah, this one surprises me.

00:46And you and I talked about this about a month ago and the steam now on the Bengals is even

00:51getting higher.

00:52The win total of 10 and a half is minus 145.

00:56So clearly people are betting on the Bengals.

01:00They believe the return of Burrow.

01:01That's why this is happening is huge.

01:04They were nine and eight last season, didn't make the playoffs, but with Jake Brown and

01:07closing the season, he did a good job as their backup.

01:11If you want the honor, it's plus 120.

01:13So clearly everyone is on the Bengals here.

01:15There's no question about it to win the North, they're plus 165.

01:19I find it fascinating.

01:20It's clear the return of Burrow.

01:22What I don't like is the trade of Joe Mixon and replacing him with Zach Moss, who's basically

01:28been a very good backup in his career.

01:30He's really not a starter.

01:31Did a good job filling in for Jonathan Taylor where the Colts before Taylor got his contract

01:35situation straightened out.

01:37But to me, that's a downgrade.

01:38Defensively, they're going to get some injured players back.

01:41They're a little shaky in the secondary.

01:43They got two new starters in safety.

01:45The Ravens are the clear favorite there.

01:47To me, I don't, I mean, I get it.

01:49People are betting on the Bengals because Burrow's back.

01:53The Ravens are clearly the better team.

01:54I have issues on the back end with the Bengals, but they're going to have to outscore teams

01:58to get back, not only back to the playoffs, but to make a deep run.

02:01But again, 10 and a half wins.

02:02The over to me is, that's a tough play where clearly people think it could happen.
