00:00And it's going to kick off again early in Paris with the Steelers and Saints.
00:05Saints have been there now for the week.
00:08Steelers pulled the Rams where they early this morning, Craig.
00:13They eventually got there.
00:15But I'm still seeing three and I'm not.
00:19If we're being on the Steelers offense, I mean, Aaron Rodgers has figured something out with this rookie Bernard.
00:28And they're they're running the ball.
00:30Well, this is and they're very experienced.
00:34It's, you know, Saints are young taking a trip like this overseas where experience absolutely plays a factor.
00:43Feel like the Steelers can win this game and I think can win it rather easily here on a Sunday
00:47morning.
00:49Yeah, I'm not so sure.
00:50I may like the other side on this one.
00:53I kind of feel like Pittsburgh is is just going to play this win-loss game all season long.
00:59They win, they lose, they win, they lose.
01:01Last week, close game against Tampa.
01:03They win.
01:04You know, my confidence level is so low in the Saints.
01:07That's sort of the issue here.
01:08Like the Saints opened up the season and I thought, oh, this could be a little bit of a surprise
01:13team.
01:13And let's not forget the Saints started off 3-0 last season and then went completely in the tank.
01:19So it feels like New Orleans is kind of going through a little bit of what I would usually call
01:23an anonymous season.
01:25I don't know that anybody's paying any attention to them.
01:27I don't know that a lot of folks that follow the NFL can name five guys on their team.
01:31Like obviously we can with Alave and Shuck and some of the other players they have.
01:35But a team that's not going to win their division, probably not going to be 500.
01:39But is it a good spot for them playing, you know, in a neutral site, getting points?
01:46I kind of think it is a little bit here.
01:48Pittsburgh is the better team of the two.
01:51But Joe, can Pittsburgh finally win back-to-back games?
01:54I don't know.
01:55Like this should be a game that they can win and should win.
01:59But I'm not sure they can.
02:00I'm not sure they do because they just haven't put back-to-back games together, let alone back-to-back
02:05quarters.
02:06Tampa Bay dominated Pittsburgh in the first half of that game.
02:08Pittsburgh came all the way back and won that one.
02:11So probably a pass from me here.
02:13But I actually may lean Saints in this one.
02:15I may lean a close game.
02:17Yeah, all right.
02:18You're thinking maybe Saints get it done there.
02:21Will it be close with Cleveland and Tennessee?
02:25Because that total is gross with no weather issues in Tennessee there, Craig.
02:31Yeah, the Titans have been the kings of covering,
02:35which is just a lesson for everybody who follows the NFL this season.
02:38The Titans may be 11-5 or 11-6 against the spread in the NFL this season.
02:44That's how great the Titans are at covering.
02:46Cam Ward may be having a bad year, but the second that they're getting 10 points,
02:50he's leading that team right down to the end.
02:52And then, of course, they had the outright win.
02:54They got the GM of the Colts fired.
02:55So, look, I think that Tennessee's not good.
03:01But Cleveland right now, to me, is probably the most overrated team in the NFL.
03:08I cannot believe they are where they are, and I got to give them credit for it.
03:12And a reminder that Watson, for all of his warts and everything that's happened with him,
03:17once upon a time was one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL.
03:20He's probably half the guy that he used to be.
03:22But where Cleveland is winning games is it feels like we have two teams in the NFL that are doing
03:27it on defense.
03:28We have Cleveland in the AFC, and we have Minnesota in the NFC.
03:32I don't think any of us believe that either of these two teams are going very far,
03:35but it could lead to a lot of regular season wins.
03:39So, how did Tennessee win last week?
03:42Rare to block a punt and win.
03:44You never see that in the NFL, especially on special teams.
03:47I don't expect Tennessee to win this game.
03:50I do think Cleveland wins.
03:51But covering?
03:52Yes.
03:53Always in play with the Titans.
03:56It's going to be disgusting here.
03:58It feels like too low a number, given the fact that defenses can score, Craig, right?
04:04And short fields.
04:06It's not going to take a lot to get 38 points in this game, is it?
04:10Well, Salah's done a really good job with the D.
04:12I mean, if you think about why the Titans covering all these spreads,
04:16it's because their defense has been holding.
04:18It's the offense that hasn't got it done.
04:19The thing that's perplexing to me is what has happened to Cam Ward.
04:23I mean, Cam Ward was so good in college at Miami.
04:26He was just as good as Mensah or any of these other guys that they have had.
04:29Better than Beck, even, I would say, last year.
04:32And he just hasn't shown anything.
04:34And unfortunately, the Titans just keep overturning coaches and changing coordinators, Joe.
04:40Like, I mean, honestly, can anybody even name who the Titans coach was last season before Salah?
04:47I don't even remember who that guy was.
04:49Did he spend two years with the Titans?
04:51I don't even remember his name.
04:53You know, it's very much in-flex.
04:55Callahan, wasn't it?
04:58Yeah, and then he got fired, Brian Callahan.
05:02If you say so.
05:05Yeah, no, terrible.
05:07The points tells you, with the total, everything you need to know about that game there.
05:12So, yeah.
05:14Tennessee, the scary part is somebody's either going to have five wins or two wins.
05:19And I don't know which one scares me more.
05:22I don't know which one is going to have five wins.
05:22So, yeah.
05:22You
