00:00Well, good luck to the New York Jets.
00:01That's where a lot of folks here at SportsGrid are going to be focused in.
00:04Yes, we have a lot of Jets fans always in the building.
00:07Somehow, they still keep wanting to get punished,
00:09and they're going to get punished again this season.
00:11But maybe not in Week 1.
00:13The Jets, Joe, they got a shot to win right out of the gate.
00:16A 1-0 start could it be for the Jets?
00:18They're at the Tennessee Titans.
00:20Boy, why are the Titans only a point-and-a-half favorite, Joe?
00:23I thought the Titans were on the right path last season.
00:26I thought Cam Ward got better as the season went on.
00:28Of course, their offensive line was just dreadful.
00:31They were sacking him basically on every play.
00:34Jets, you know, they're dialing it back 20 years to Geno Smith here again.
00:38Look, I understand that New York is in a very awkward position
00:42because they're really headed toward a tough season.
00:44They're kind of trying to pretend like they're going to contend.
00:47But I went on paper this year,
00:49and I thought if the Titans are going to end up winning eight games,
00:52let's say, this season, doesn't this have to be one of them?
00:56Well, Jet fans, certainly some things are better.
01:00But the problem is, you don't always buy into narrative games necessarily.
01:04I'm buying into this one.
01:06Robert Sala was done dirty by the New York Jets.
01:08And as one of my bald brothers, I have to defend him
01:11and that entire coaching staff, which, by the way, also has my hairstyle.
01:14I was up for a job there.
01:16I didn't get it.
01:17But I'm so glad that everybody else on the bald side of things
01:21is working for Robert Sala currently.
01:22But this was a Jets team under Sala.
01:25That was one of the best defenses in the league.
01:26They were a quarterback away.
01:28They thought they got the quarterback.
01:29He got hurt a couple plays into the season.
01:31Then the relationship deteriorated.
01:33And next thing you know, Robert Sala is not a good football guy.
01:35I don't buy that for a second.
01:36You're right.
01:37The Tennessee Titans did play better football last year.
01:40Now they've got a real offensive coordinator here.
01:42Cam Ward still has to learn the progressions,
01:45and he's still a very green quarterback in a lot of ways.
01:47It kind of came to the position late.
01:49So I think he's still learning on the job,
01:51but he's a hardworking kid.
01:52You gave him some more weapons, which also helped for sure.
01:55Carnal Tate, obviously a big weapon there.
01:57I like the money line with the Titans, minus 118.
02:00So why score around with the spread at minus 105?
02:03We can just bump it up a little bit more.
02:05No room for error, minus 118.
02:07But honestly, the best bet you can make here
02:09is the under at the 38 and a half.
02:11Because if there's a game that smells like 10-6,
02:15it's this game right here.
02:17Defenses are going to be ready.
02:18They're going to play hard in this one.
02:19I don't see a whole lot of offense happening in this one.
02:22You could set this at 35 and a half,
02:24and I'd still take the under.
02:2638 and a half, the low total of the day in the NFL.
02:2938 and a half, the low total of the day in the NFL.
02:2939 and a half, the low total of the day in the NFL.
02:2939 and a half, the low total of the day in the NFL.
