00:00I mean, we can start with the Patriots at the Bills.
00:03What you got?
00:04I was not blown away by the Bills.
00:06I know right now people are in love with the way the Bills are playing in general.
00:11Keep in mind, a lot of these games have been at home.
00:13I didn't think Josh Allen was great in this last game.
00:15I thought the Chargers solved a lot of the issues with Josh Allen.
00:19And like I said, right side loser, but they wound up losing by eight, getting seven.
00:22I also think you're getting the Patriots plus six and a half here on a buy low spot off a
00:27terrible loss.
00:28The summer look ahead on this was Bills minus three.
00:31I also don't love the Bills ball security right now.
00:34And they are going to be missing on defense.
00:35Christian Benford, Davis, Benison is going to be in their rookie.
00:39I think what third or fourth round pick.
00:41I think the Patriots will rise up and at least play a competitive game.
00:44And frankly, over the years, the Pats have dominated this series.
00:48So I think the Bills can win, but I don't think they're going to blow the Patriots off the field.
00:51I know it's not a popular play right now, but I don't think the Pats are going to just die.
00:55Okay, good.
00:56I mean, listen, we were worried about the phantom shoulder injury for Drake May, me and John.
01:02He did practice on Wednesday.
01:06They expect him to be ready to go.
01:08And I have faith that he's just not going to continue to play this poorly.
01:13And there looks to be a disconnect between Josh McDaniel and Drake May.
01:17I can't imagine that's going to continue.
01:19In year two, it's just a weird time that it would happen.
01:21Yeah, it is a little bit odd.
01:23I thought he would improve from last year.
01:25Actually gone the opposite way.
01:26Okay, you got 49ers minus two and a half.
01:29Is that correct?
01:30Yes, correct.
01:31They're at home.
01:32And again, I don't think the Broncos were the right side winner.
01:36And again, I think they got a lot of benefits down the stretch from the officials.
01:39They're also benefiting from at home.
01:41And this has been traditional the last couple of years.
01:43They've had a lot of comebacks.
01:44A lot of those comebacks are at home.
01:45I think the elevation is hurting teams.
01:47Well, the Niners are not at elevation because they're at home.
01:49So Broncos don't have the elevation advantage.
01:51Bo Nix is not playing great football.
01:53And I just think coming out of the gates in the first half and falling behind in every game.
01:57Yeah.
01:57Last year, they came back in 15 games.
01:59They went up winning 14 overall.
02:02I just don't see that continuing this year.
02:04So I think they're going to regress to the mean.
02:06And I also don't believe the Broncos defense in spite of the personnel.
02:09I don't think that defense is that good.
02:10At times, they got gashed by the Rams.
02:12They Puka, Nkouilis, Rams.
02:14So I'm buying into the Niners right now.
02:17I'm not sure long term that they can stay healthy.
02:19But right now, the Niners minus two and a half.
02:21I like it.
02:21John, anything?
02:23I think this is going to be the first real physical test that the Niners are going to face.
02:28I like Denver in this game.
02:30I really do like Denver in this game.
02:32Because even though they have found their way early in the season to get some of these wins,
02:37I think for them, this is a test, too.
02:39I think that they're going up.
02:41Because after what happened to them against Kansas City,
02:43what you're going to see them now do is try to get back to the basics
02:48and get a hard-fought win.
02:50And I see that happening.
02:51I see that happening against the 49ers.
02:53There's no telling who's going to finish the game for the 49ers.
02:57And that's become the thing for me.
02:59Who starts is not important for me.
03:01Who finishes the games are more important for me.
03:04Who gets carted off for the 49ers this week?
03:07Koushi.
03:08What's the line on who gets carted off first?
03:11Trent Williams or Mike Evans?
03:13Yeah, Mike Evans is already coming in banged up.
03:15Go ahead, Steve.
03:16Yeah, I was going to say my last one is, again, I think the Lions are about a 500 team.
03:21They're kind of living on the edge here.
03:22Panthers lost a heartbreaker in Cleveland, so they're at home.
03:25I like the way the Panthers are playing right now overall for the season.
03:28I'm going to take the three and a half there as a home dog.
03:31Can I give you guys a couple of season win totals?
03:34I love Vegas and Vegas and around the country.
03:37You can bet win totals throughout the season, so they adjust them.
03:40And I think buying low or playing against teams that are playing really well is a wise move.
03:46So the Buccaneers number has gone down to six and a half.
03:50And I understand that Baker Mayfield is out.
03:53He's going to be out for three or four weeks.
03:54I think they'll survive with the Kansas rookie, Jalen Daniels.
03:57The 0-3 for the Buccaneers is kind of misleading, too.
04:00They lost to Cincy, Cleveland, and Minnesota.
04:02They were very much in all those games.
04:03Here's the positive for Tampa.
04:05They're playing good defense.
04:06They're allowing like 16.3 points per game.
04:09Their run defense is very good.
04:10It's number two in the NFL at 3.1 yards per carry.
04:13So I know it's like the worst time to jump on them, but that's when you do it,
04:16when the number drops from eight and a half to six and a half.
04:18And the other positive is the NFC South is wide open.
04:21The Bucs are going to win some games.
04:23The Bucs are not going 6-11 or 5-12.
04:26They're going to win some games, and Baker Mayfield will eventually be back.
04:28And hopefully when he's back, he's healthy and doesn't turn the ball over.
