00:00A three-and-a-half-point line.

00:01People know I'm in on L.A. this year.

00:03I picked them to win the AFC West.

00:05I was not surprised that they knocked off the Kansas City Chiefs.

00:08But I'm going to take a three-and-a-half-point home underdog

00:10in division, early season, in a primetime spot.

00:13This is only the third time we've seen a team, like,

00:15over a field goal, on the road, in division, early in the season.

00:18The other two were Cincinnati and the Buffalo Bills.

00:22But the Bills are, you know, Super Bowl favorites, right?

00:24It's the Jets, okay?

00:26And Cincinnati was playing the Browns.

00:28It's supposed to be one of the worst teams in football.

00:30The Chargers lane three-and-a-half to the Raiders feels a little heavy.

00:33I know this sounds silly.

00:35I think this lands three.

00:36Either direction, I'll take the three-and-a-hook.

00:38I'll take the three-and-a-half with Pete Carroll.

00:41I like Carroll as a dog.

00:42You like this Raiders team.

00:43I tell you what, I told you, Coach of the Year,

00:46if they start out 2-0.

00:47He's in the mix.

00:48He should be.

00:49He should have won Coach of the Year when Dable won it.

00:50He had a lower win total.

00:52I keep saying that.

00:53Five-and-a-half.

00:53Second-best odds right now.

00:55Okay.

00:55So, I like Pete Carroll.

00:57I like him as a coach.

00:58He's a motivator, always has his teams prepared.

01:02Here's the thing.

01:03I just think that Carroll, again, will over-exceed in this spot.

01:07I believe in Geno enough.

01:09As long as he doesn't turn the football.

01:11Everybody's buying into Harbaugh.

01:12Everybody's buying into him.

01:13We'll get a gauge of how good Carroll is with this defense.

01:18If they should.

01:18I think the under, though, comes in in this matchup.

01:20Let me just quickly.

01:22The Carroll, Coach of the Year case, it's like, it's obvious.

01:25Right?

01:25I'm not saying.

01:25But, like, you get it.

01:27Right?

01:27Shane Steikton.

01:28I get it.

01:28Jonathan Gannett.

01:29And you've been on these guys.

01:31Harbaugh is very live.

01:33Oh, absolutely.

01:34He's got the marquee name.

01:35If they take this division from the Chiefs.

01:38Yeah.

01:38Right?

01:39They have a chance to be up two now.

01:41Right?

01:41Two division wins.

01:42It's a big game for the Chargers tonight.

01:44Can't wait to watch it play out.
