00:00So you mentioned that you feel that the game script will imply

00:03that Alan's going to have to throw the ball.

00:05You mentioned playmakers, who's catching the ball?

00:07Who's the playmaker for Buffalo today?

00:10Well, I think the go-to guy is Khalil Shakir,

00:13who's been that guy all year for the Buffalo Bills.

00:1544 and a half is the number for him.

00:17And I believe we're looking at the over for him.

00:21I think he is the go-to guy

00:22that I feel the most comfortable with.

00:24Shakir, still not a sold name, I think, in most circles.

00:29A quiet end to the season in that game with Detroit.

00:32He was under this number against New England,

00:35obviously, with the Jets game, too, under this number.

00:38Then nobody played in Week 18.

00:40He did go over against Denver.

00:43I think we're going to see a little bit more of that version, too.

00:44He's at 61.

00:45Now, this number was 41 and a half when the week started.

00:49Right now, that number has also jumped

00:51and jumped considerably from 44 and a half now to 51 and a half.

00:55I'm still over.

00:57I still think we're going to get into that spot.

00:59But what you can see is these game script

01:00that I was basically planning all weekend here.

01:03I was like, okay, this is what I think we're going to be going.

01:05We lock in some of these graphics and these numbers

01:07and Friday, what it's going to look like.

01:09And then you see things start to change.

01:11And when you're seeing them change, excuse me,

01:14in the direction that you are thinking they are going to go in,

01:18that means your process is good.

01:20Because that means Vegas is thinking the same thing you are.

01:22And Vegas is right far more often than they are wrong.

01:25So give me the over on Khalil Shakir.

01:27If it gets to, you know, 58, 59,

01:29we can start to have that conversation.

01:31But right now where it's lying in most markets

01:32at 51 and a half, still very, very viable.
