00:01Talk AFC.

00:04Some of the best teams in the NFL do reside in the AFC, and we just talked about the Super

00:07Bowl odds.

00:08One and two.

00:09It's the Chiefs and the Ravens.

00:10So no surprise here, dubs.

00:12One and two in the AFC on the FanDuel Sportsbook does have the Chiefs at a plus 200 price and

00:17the Ravens at a plus 330 price.

00:19Let's start there.

00:20One and two.

00:21Now, obviously, I'm not going to ask you the question, do we think it's deserving that

00:24the Chiefs are the favorite?

00:25Of course it is.

00:26They're undefeated.

00:27They have a couple game lead over the Ravens and or the Buffalo Bills.

00:29Houston Texans.

00:30You get the point here.

00:31But let me ask you this question.

00:33If we lined up in a game tomorrow, Chiefs and the Ravens for all the marbles, Dubsie,

00:39where would your money be going?

00:42If it's tomorrow, does that count as regular season or we count on this as a playoff game

00:46with that extra juice, everything on the line?

00:48Because if it's the latter, it's on a neutral side.

00:53It's going to be the Kansas City Chiefs.

00:55They've proven time and time again their primes up for the big spot.

00:58I'd love to say that there's question marks on the Baltimore Ravens, but I guess I have

01:04hesitations on Lamar Jackson in a big spot.

01:07He has failed to get the job done and obviously going against a formidable duo tandem and

01:12Andy Reid, Spags, Patty Mahomes, I guess the trifecta of some of the best minds in football.

01:18They just find a way to get it done.

01:20That will go against your strengths and turn them into weaknesses.

01:23So right now, if everything was on the line, I'd have to say it's the Kansas City Chiefs.

01:28What would it take for me to sway that opinion?

01:30I'd have to be wrong.

01:31I'd have to be proven, you know, that I was misreading Lamar Jackson in a prime spot.

01:36So until I see that, I cannot back with confidence.

01:39It's the Kansas City Chiefs, Patrick Mahomes has a good chance of making that three on

01:43the trot.

01:44I love the AFC.

01:45I mean, I do.

01:47You know me.

01:48I am a tried and true Philadelphia Eagles fan all the way down.

01:51So sometimes I say in the NFC, I do like a team, which we're going to get to in the next

01:55segment.

01:57The Chiefs are obviously a great football team.

01:59The Baltimore Ravens, I bet them last year to win the Super Bowl was so disappointed

02:03because I thought I had money, easy money in my back pocket after they throttled the

02:0649ers on Christmas and then a couple of days later, it's like, hey, here we go.

02:10If only to find out in the AFC championship game, they just couldn't beat the Kansas City

02:14Chiefs.

02:15But I love two teams in the AFC.

02:16It's the Buffalo Bills and it's the Pittsburgh Steelers.

02:18Now, we'll start with the Buffalo Bills.

02:20I think they have every component they need to win a Super Bowl, a quarterback that's

02:25playing unbelievably great football.

02:28Now the MVP finalist in the leaderboard right now over Lamar Jackson, that's Josh Allen.

02:33They have wide receivers.

02:34They get Amari Cooper.

02:35You have a running back in Cook that looks like he's taking the next step, a defensive

02:39head coach.

02:40I love him at plus 420 price.

02:41And then you know me with the Pittsburgh Steelers sitting at 14 to 1 on the Russ bandwagon,

02:45playing good football, heading into their bye.
