Transcript

00:00first game Buffalo five and a half at home against the Jaguars 45 and a half

00:05the total remember these two teams played in London last year the Jaguars

00:08won the game outright any bets for you Femi bills and the Jags next Monday

00:12night Buffalo 2-0 Jags 0-2 and feels like kind of feels like season

00:18on the line and I heard you say this at the end of the Femi and friends hour and

00:21I agree it feels like like Doug Peterson's coaching tenure in

00:25Jacksonville hanging on by a thread yeah and like it can always go one of two

00:29ways when that's the situation there when the coach is like hey like in two

00:32weeks might not have a job but at these current numbers it's nothing for me I

00:37would lean towards Jacksonville just because I think it's gonna be a

00:39kitchen-sink game from the Jacksonville Jaguars despite Buffalo coming off the

00:43big win having the extra rest the extra time to prepare I do still think there's

00:46an upside to this Jacksonville defense that we didn't quite see in the full

00:51form of the first couple of weeks that maybe we'll see in this game just

00:54because like they can't fall to Owen three they know that their seasons over

00:58if they do so so I would back Jacksonville I could I guess like well

01:02like maybe a half unit play I hate when people talk like half unit unit here but

01:05like it'll probably be a smaller bet at five and a half definitely a bet at six

01:08if that were to ever come back I would recommend betting that that's something

01:11that I've done but we're having the conversation here at five and a half I

01:14would say maybe a lukewarm kind of smaller bet on the Jacksonville Jaguars

01:17just because they are the desperate team in this game I know that gets priced in

01:20the market but I don't know if it gets priced in enough given the fact that Doug

01:24Peterson and even Trent Baalke probably jobs on the line in Duval County I'm

01:28gonna give you like an on fee like a weird on field handicap here where I

01:33don't want to bet the game just yet and I'm not suggesting that Evan Ingram's

01:37availability will dictate the way I bet this game but Buffalo dealing with

01:41multiple injuries at the linebacker position Matt Milano's out until

01:44December Terrell Bernard's gonna miss some time like the the middle of the

01:47field is gonna be open for opposing offenses to attack the Buffalo Bills can

01:52the Jaguars do it with the way this offense is constructed Christian Kirk

01:56can't catch the ball Brian Thomas is a downfield threat Evan Ingram has a

01:59hamstring injury Brenton Strange played tight actually played decently against

02:02the Browns on Sunday I uh if we think and like I agree with you at six it's a

02:08bet for me on the Jaguars at six the vibes are real bad right now for the

02:14Jacksonville Jaguars the vibes are really good for the Buffalo Bills so five

02:19and a half I'm not rushing to make this bet on Jacksonville six I'm in on the

02:24Jaguars and kind of like I think if you think the Jaguars can keep this game

02:29really close do you have to bet the money line like you get that Trevor

02:32Lawrence game where like where he just where he just shows up and he wins the

02:36game because he's awesome like can he do that stand toe-to-toe with Josh Allen I

02:41think it's I think it's pretty fascinating and let's close quick picks

02:44for week three with the Bengals and the commies Cincinnati is seven and a half

02:48point favorite this touched eight and points last night total forty eight and

02:52a half Washington one and one Cincy at oh and two like has to win the game

02:56yeah when I thought about this game I had seven and a half and we sit here at

03:00seven and a half so not a whole lot for me betting the side or the total but I

03:04do find it a little bit interesting that this almost feels like sort of the

03:07assumption that the Bengals get back on the right track and I do think the

03:10Bengals will get back on the right track in terms of winning outright like they

03:13should win this game if they don't win this game something severely went wrong

03:17based on what we've seen from the commanders the first couple weeks but in

03:20terms of covering the spread that's when it gets a little bit dangerous for me

03:23because this was like a six and a half or so about a week ago now that the

03:27Bengals are owing to they had a good showing in Kansas City probably should

03:30have won that game if not for the boneheaded pass interference like we're

03:34all the way out to eight and a half at one point now there's been some

03:36commanders buyback to seven and a half but I always get a little bit concerned

03:40when it's oh this team is just gonna bounce back they have to it almost feels

03:43a little bit like that Raiders Ravens game last week when the Ravens lost at

03:47the last second to Kansas City oh they have to bounce back they'll beat the

03:50Raiders they can't fall to 0-2 well they fell to 0-2 and they didn't

03:53cover like I don't think that's gonna happen in this particular game but maybe

03:56it'll be a little bit more competitive than what people think so I think

03:58Cincinnati wins the game so maybe it's a teaser leg with the total that's a

04:02rather high but I don't know if I would be rushing to lay the points with the

04:05Bengals. Yes I've been a little like lukewarm on some of these games just just at this

04:10point in the week kind of wanted to get more information see how the market

04:13develops in some of these games I have a stronger thought here anything above

04:17seven I think I'm gonna I'm gonna take the points with the commanders and it's

04:21not that I think Washington will win the game but I do think Cincinnati's defense

04:25is not impressive and Jaden Daniels is electric and I think that the commanders

04:30can score enough in this game to get inside the number I also think

04:35Washington never ever keeps the game close in a game that goes under the

04:40total I get it it means that Washington doesn't score like Cincinnati is going

04:45to score in this game on Washington's defense especially if T Higgins is back

04:48like the Washington defense made Joe Burrow look good so another way to play

04:53this game and I'll probably have a bet on both on on each on the side and the

04:57total I think since he's gonna score I think the commanders in catch-up mode

05:01with Jaden Daniels can score I like the over in this game I got over 48 and a

05:06half and I would take the points with the Washington commanders as well
