"Buffalo is pretty healthy. Miami's not. We have a dolphins team in its current form with a below average offense when Skyler is running it. And that's compounded with injuries. And a defense that's below average and dips even lower on the highway here. My instinct said, if you started Skyler for every single game with the current injuries and the defense on the road, you're looking at a team that's going to play potentially like a two, three, four win team here. That's ugly. I was going to actually ask you that question. You know, when you look at the way the dolphins are currently constructed, obviously forget the fact that they're 9 and 8 and those prolific offensive performances, where you guys would have them rated. I think that's mind boggling for me so I can only imagine how the listeners are respond hearing how poorly the dolphins get created out when you're talking about a third string quarterback weapons that are dinged up, offensive linemen that are hurt and a secondary that would struggle against some vertical passing attacks at the high school level the way that they're currently built. Yeah, I mean, even those guys, xavien Howard knew the situation last week, played extremely well. He's not a 100% healthy. Javon Holland, playing through some injuries. He's not a 100% healthy. And so the dolphins haven't had good success stopping the bills anyways. And now you have some injuries to the secondary and guys that are that are dinged up. And so this is just not a good match up here. And you kind of felt it last week. Sure, the dolphins got a bigger win for us. Then I think it was for the dolphins candidly. Now, perceptually, it was awesome for Mike mcdaniel, get his team in the playoffs, get the dolphins to the playoffs, kind of get the negative narrative out there that he could potentially be canned after one season, which would be the dumbest move in the history of the sport. But there was very much this vibe and sense where it's like, yay, we made the playoffs. There is zero expectation to do anything past that. Because internally, they know how beat up there. I was just happy to hear pain in the wake of the jets parting ways with Mike Lafleur that one of their top candidates for the offensive coordinator position could be none other than Daryl bevel. So I mean, that was the real highlight coming out of that jets dolphins game and everything that we saw in full last Sunday. If Mike mcdaniel got fired, he would immediately be the jets OC, and would be causing terror on the dolphins for the next couple of seasons. Gotta be careful how some of those pieces come together, but obviously a successful season for the dolphins. They exceed odds makers expectations you'd like to see them have more than a puncher's chance. Number suggests that this game could be over sooner rather than later. From early Sunday in western New York into Minneapolis, where the Minnesota Vikings in the New York Giants will play for the second time in the short span of four weeks. Both teams enter this game pain with negative point differential this season, the fourth ever playoff game with two teams doing battle that have a negative point differential. And it's the Vikings. They feel good favorite. Total on the game anywhere from 48 on the low end upwards of 48 and a half. We know about the Vikings charmed existence so far this year, 11 and O and one score games. Most one score wins in a season in NFL history. Also a little bit of uncharted territory, only the fourth time that you're going to see rookie head coaches, meeting in the postseason as well. And when you look at the first meeting, the Vikings slip by the Giants, 27, 24, it was a Greg Joseph 61 yard field goal as time expired.

"The offensive highlights for the bears in their game with a Buffalo Bills and soldier field few and far between the bill's winning 35 to 13 thanks to a 29 to three second half run at the bears could not overcome. Justin Fields through a touchdown pass in the first quarter to Dante Pettis from 6 yards out, and there was a bomb velus Jones junior near the end of the third that got the bears going briefly. Two Ted ends right side of the formation now Griffin pulls the intake for the top. Snap play fake the Montgomery pulling back the throw field to the nice clean pocket going deep sprinting down the right side, making the catch and a beauty. What a catch by famous Jones gets up and keeps running, but Baylor's Jones had a perfect beautiful throw by Justin Fields threaded it between defenders. Just a 119 yards passing for fields also just 7 rushes for 11 yards as the bears could not really get the running game going after, well, maybe about the midpoint of the second quarter. The bills clinched the AFC east title in the process, they have already clinched a playoff spot for their fourth straight season. The bears again at three and 12 are in Detroit on New Year's Day. The Lions losing at Carolina 37 to 23 in Detroit is now 7 and 8, and Minnesota. They get their 11th win in a one score game this season it sets an NFL record and this was quite the heart stopper 27 24 over the New York Giants on a 61 yard field goal from Greg Joseph, as time expired, with sports on your home of the bears, Dave kerner, and his radio one O 5 9 W BBM.

"Here's Dave kerner. Turns out an 8th straight loss now for the bears, it ties a franchise record buffalo winning 35 to 13 its soldier field outscoring the bears 29 to three in the second half and using the running game as the force to get it done, Devin Singletary of 33 yard TD run James cook, a 27 yard run for a score. That was in the third quarter and basically blew the game open. Here's bears coach Matt ebert flew on the failure to stop the bills running game. Scrimmage, it always is the number one goal and obviously we didn't get that done today. They ran the ball very effectively on a lot of zone read, draw type plays. And we couldn't get much going on our side. So that was really when you have weather like this, you have to be able to do that. Cold temperatures, indeed, Justin Fields couldn't get it going running the football just 7 carries for 11 yards. David Montgomery had 62 rushing yards, but the only bears touched down of the day on their first drive fields, finding Dante Pettis from 6 yards out that was really as good as it got for a bears team that now looks ahead to two games left in the regular season, Detroit on the road, Minnesota at home. The Vikings beat the New York Giants 27 24 on a 61 yard field goal from Greg Joseph as time expired and Detroit beaten by Carolina 37 to 23 is Dante foreman had a 165 yards rushing for the Panthers with a score, the lions are now 7 and 8, with sports on your home of the bears, Dave kerner and his radio one O 5 9, wbm. 8 18 traffic and weather together on the 8s, sponsored by lindemann chimney heating and cooling, here's Mike Allison.

The rest of the road is doing great this morning, the Eden's nice and clear in either direction, we also have no delays on the Kennedy, just 15 minutes either way between O'Hare and downtown. Iowa 90 eastbound and westbound are both moving along just fine. On the Eisenhower in battle, I have a little bit of a delay right as you're approaching the Jane Byrne interchange.

"Point every fire truck in Buffalo had gotten stuck, as well as at least 9 ambulances. I'm Jim Forbes. Now this Bloomberg sports update, it was kind of a mixed bag for the Giants on Christmas Eve. They went toe to toe with the Vikings on the field in Minnesota on Saturday in the end though, the Vikings made the big play late. How about a 61 yard field goal as time expired. A career best kick from Greg Joseph and that's enough to sink the G men final score 27 to 24. The Giants would have secured their playoff birth if they had won instead they needed some help and they got it on Saturday because Kansas City beats Seattle Carolina beat the Lions, the commanders lost to San Francisco. So all things considered it's actually pretty okay for the Giants as they stand pat in the NST playoff race they'll host Indianapolis on New Year's Day. The big showdown game on Christmas Eve was in Dallas. The cowboys end up beating the eagles 40 to 34 and that is a big win for the cowboys. They still have an opportunity to win the NFC east, but they trail the eagles still by two games. How about the commanders? We talked about them. They lost in San Francisco 37 to 20 San Francisco has rolled off 8 straight wins. The commanders are winless in their last three games. Jay glazer of Fox Sports says the jets are preparing to move on from quarterback Zach Wilson once they get to the off season. There's basketball at MSG on Christmas Day for the Knicks.

West Point is removing a portrait and bust of Robert E. Lee from high profile spots around campus. The directives were part of a defense authorization bill in 2021 with an official saying the steps were part of a process to quote remove, rename, or modify assets at the United States military academy.

Now this Bloomberg sports update, the Giants found out just how hard it is to beat the Vikings in a close game. In fact, it's pretty much impossible. The Giants went toe to toe with Minnesota for four quarters, but in the end the Vikings got the last opportunity to score and Greg Joseph hit a 61 yard field goal as time expired final was 27 24. That denies the Giants from clinching a playoff spot on Saturday. So they're still in pretty good shape. They'll play Indianapolis on January 1st. That game is very winnable. It's what else happened around the Giants on Saturday that made them feel good because all the teams that are chasing them in the NFC playoff race took losses, starting with Seattle, the Seahawks lost on the road at Kansas City 24 to ten. Carolina put up a 37 23 win on the Lions and the commanders struggled to they go to San Francisco and get hammered 37 to 20 San Francisco has won 8 straight games. The game of the NFL weekend played out in Dallas on Saturday night and it was the cowboys and the eagles Philadelphia losing for just the second time this season. They lose 40 to 34 so the door is still open for the cowboys to possibly win the NFC east outright. The jets apparently set to move on from Zach Wilson after this season. That's the report from Jay glazer of Fox Sports. He says the Jets have lost confidence in Wilson. Basketball on Christmas Day for the Knicks. They're home against the Philadelphia 76ers.

I kind of feel the same way. I felt like he was a better athlete than he's shown since that ankle injury. Yeah, that wasn't that wasn't a great fourth quarter for them as a team. So at Micah Parsons, who I was like, it could be the MVP. He was invisible too. So he's hurt though, isn't he? Yeah, he's not healthy anymore. So I think she's been a factor for them too. So I don't know, I just feel like this is a three point game. I don't know who's going to win, but 7 and a half points in Minnesota. If I can fans love this team, that was the Jefferson catch.

And even after that, Josh Allen leads him right down the field and they tie it up with the Tyler bass field goal and then custom test to do it again. And I just think it's different. I think it's different and I think this fan base as tortured as they are and it's much scar tissue as they have like they're going to welcome that team on Sunday with such open arms and I think that place is going to be raucous on Sunday. I think the Vikings win. We saw this game week one

"greg joseph" Discussed on Behind the Bets

"I know they're already there in the playoff mix. But they're among the contenders now in the AFC. Well you mentioned the double digit comeback by the ravens. It's now their third double digit comeback of the year, most of the NFL, we used to always talk about the ravens as a front running team with Lamar Jackson and you want to get them ahead. They want to run the ball. They had never come back for double digits down before the season. And now they've done it three times this year. So Lamar Jackson clearly is making some strides in the passing game. Today he kind of dominate in the short passing game as opposed to the big deep balls to Mark Lee's brand like he had been doing in the past. The ravens nearly pulled an urban Meyer today going nearly 250 yards rushing in two 50 yards passing, so they almost got that done. Call that the urban Meyer. Well, that's what he wanted to do. That's what he said. Quote, but every Vikings game, though, seems to come right down to the final play. They've had 7 one score games this year. They've had 5 one score losses this season. I mean, I was on Minnesota in that game. I was talking about 6. I was surprised I went up to 7, but I'm just going to take Minnesota and if I'm getting over a field goal, I'm going to take them unless they're playing a really good team or in a really bad spot because every Minnesota game comes right down to the wire and it's Greg Joseph kept lining up for a go ahead field goal or it's whoever they're playing lining up for a go ahead field goal every game comes right down to the wire of Minnesota. All right, that covers the Sunday card Monday night. I mean, it's ridiculous. The spread with the total, right? You had 6 and a half and 39. It's up to 7 and 39. I can't lay 7. I don't want 7 either. These are the types of games the bears win, though. I will say that steelers tend to win as a dog. Choke this one away. I haven't feeling steelers win this by three late or an overtime kind of like that Sunday Night game against Seattle. Yeah, to me, this is a dog or pass kind of game. You can't. It's hard to justify laying 7 points with the Steelers, though. If you tell me that Justin Fields one of the worst games all season by a quarterback on the Steelers win 27 to three, I wouldn't be that surprised by that either. The total in this game is 39 right now, which would tie the lowest of the season. The Texans patriots game for a few weeks back also was 39. So low total expecter than that game. I don't really have a strong lead, though. Yeah, my only play is first half under. I think both teams and it's crazy saying this about Big Ben, but are going to protect their quarterbacks and be pretty vanilla. I say it all the time in defense and matchup. If they want to wait for the other team to make the mistake, lean on your defense. And then sometimes in the second half, things get crazy, right? There's a going forward around midfield on fourth down or pressing a quarterback throws into double coverage when they're down ten, you get a pick 6 or short field for the other team's offense after a turnover. That's why I like to go first half unders when it's a low low number. And if you want the first quarter under, the first quarter unders at 7, so a really low first quarter under in this game. I gave out under 7 and a half in the air force army game. I was like, wow, you really only need one punt. I think it was zero zero until the second half. But do you just blind bet the unders and service academy games when they're playing other sports academies? That is the best trend in college football. But it's a fascinating topic because obviously the units are scoring in football are three and 7, and there's no sense of urgency at the end of the first and third quarters. So when you get the hook, do they make the juice right? So if it's 7 and a half versus 6 and a half, is the juice accurate enough given the likelihood how slow those tempos are and how they just will grind on the ground. And the fact that the defenses are used to facing that type of offense in practice as opposed to other teams on their schedule. Yeah, no, it's definitely a fascinating topic in terms of which is better than a quarter price for letting a half price. I haven't dug too deep into which one's better. I always like getting the quarter prices because I'm with you. I like, you know, the teams aren't motivated to score at the end of the first or third, but you're also going to get low number lower numbers doing it that way. So it's a little bit of a given to take. Yeah, one freak play. Well, I'm going first half of the Steelers, bears game, have some fun with it nothing too crazy. But great stuff is always McKenzie, always good. You're always have awesome awesome notes and research done for these podcasts and I know our listeners greatly appreciate it. And he notes that we left out in terms of put a bow on this week 9 Sunday. Well, one thing I mentioned earlier was the MVP race, I kind of want to touch on. So if you look at the 6 MVP favorites entering this week, Josh Allen was a three to one favorite. He lost the Jaguars and throw a touchdown pass. Kyler Murray was second at 5 to one. He didn't play because of an injury. Tom Brady was third at plus 5 50. He didn't play because of bio week. He's the only one who stock didn't follow this week. Matthew Stafford struggled and lost the Titans and losses and upset. Dak Prescott was plus 7 50. They lost to Denver. He didn't complete half his passes, and Aaron Rodgers didn't play due to COVID. So pretty much all the favorites for MVP fell apart this week, so we mentioned it a little bit earlier, but I would imagine that Tom Brady is probably the favorite going in the next week. And they're scheduled gets easier in November December. Now, obviously things can change. We thought the bills would have an easy schedule going into Jacksonville. So anything can happen, but it is going to be really interesting to see how it all plays out because the NC was so stacked with one loss teams, obviously that's not the case anymore after the rams..

"Even talked it out over the break a little bit. Trying to figure out some odds. The $1 million picks for week 7 to recap, we are up 1.57 million for the season, 5 or 6 winning weeks, our MVP has been Greg butler, who singled it. Great Joseph and Greg butler. Greg Joseph is our MVP. He swung through games for us. And now, the $1 billion picks for week 7 give me one. Give me one. Let's go. Teaser. Packers -7 and a half patriots -7. We are going to tease those two together. The Pats have to beat the jets by one, the packers have to beat washed them by one and a half, putting 600. Oh yeah. 600,000 on that one. We're not done with the Pats and packers either because FanDuel has 5 team teasers. For minus one 77, 14 point teases. We're just going to do it. We're going to give it a test drive. What happened in the car? Pats minor 7 packers -7 and a half cards -17 and a half. Rams -15 and a half chiefs minus four and a half. We're teasing all of those games by 14 points. Pat's plus 7. Okay. Packers plus 6 and a half. Cards, minus three and a half, rams, minus one and a half chiefs. Plus 9 and a half. All the math to cover. Minus one 77, Warren sharp is having a heart attack. He's left off. He was right. No, he's so upset that we're doing this. This is such a bad idea. We're doing it anyway. And we're going to try to win 200 K on that. And if we lose, we lose 354,000. So just mark and that time. Okay, straight up. Got two bets. Chiefs. The chiefs will score more than 31 points, minus one 16. We're gonna put $200,000. That's a 32 points. 31 is a push. Okay. We think what how many points do you think they'll score against the things? If you had to guess 40? 42, 42, okay. Feeling good about that. Bears. We both kind of like this bears line plus 12 and a half against the bucks. We think it's too high. We think it should be -9, yeah. Or -9 and half something like that instead, we're getting all these extra points. Good defense, top 70 VOA. We think they hang around and we also think because of the buck's secondary, there's some garbage time potential. Sure. For the bears. Khalil Herbert action. Yeah. Who knows? Okay, so we're putting 200 K in that. Underdog parley of the week. Great and ambitious. We haven't won one of these since week one. Now there's reasons for this. The underdogs have not been winning. It's not like we're picking the wrong ones. We just haven't seen the underdogs. We like to concentrate on the ones between like four points and 8 points. The same reason we're winning all these teases every single week is why we're not winning the underdog parlays. Good point. Well said, raiders last week we had, we needed the bears to cooperate, Aaron Rodgers said you forgot I pay rent on those guys. Well, this week, we're going to do a mix and match of three teams we like. The Bengals to win out right against the ravens. The colts to win out right against the niners and the Seahawks to save their season against the saints. Here's what we're doing. 33 K each on Bengals colts plus 8 O 8. Bengal Seahawks plus 7 83 colt Seahawks plus 6 84. So two of those three win. We're golden. If they all lose, we lose 99,000. If you had asked me in August and would you ever bet on a Carson Wentz Geno Smith parlay, I would say I would stay away, but Bill, it's week 7. I'm here for it. I'm in. And I gotta be honest. It's a little rational confidence from us this week because we've been doing well. We have a 5 team tees and we have a ridiculous three different versions of an underdog parle. I hope it hit two instead of just betting all those teams straight up. That's why you come to the $1 million picks. And those were the $1 million picks for week 7. Peter schrager we'll see you on good morning football. We will see you on Fox on Sunday as well. And I'll see you next week, my friend. I'll be texting you from the airplane on Sunday, freaking out as always. What are my favorite.

"That's what i'm going to open it. Because i don't wanna four with it because we do everything eleven ten and i'm gonna keep my eyes on this one but starts dropping. I definitely will drop it. But in a matter of fact even while i'm thinking about i'm gonna open at seven. What the hell is what i love. You make decisions right here. You gotta make them. Sometimes daria decided right now. But i think seven really is a better number. And that's what i'm open but of all the trends. Keep that one of my. You go from a home dog to road favorite. It's usually an over inflated price. If tyrod taylor stays in that game which rod taylor One of the has this amazing record of not coughing up the football by fumble or interception for guy who has talking about minimum number of snaps. He's right up there in the top. The history of the li. If he stays in that game yesterday they might just upset. The cleveland browns. They're right in. Yeah right in it i like. I said i'm watching this kid. And he gets zero credit. Probably a lot of guys rate them the thirty to the thirty second starting quarterback. He's better than that. He not bad for sure and even going into the season he was better than that. Like people have strange things with certain guys like ryan fitzpatrick listed. Snickers really really. He's like one of your worst quarterbacks. So funny how people sort of pigeonhole guys all right. So seven is that i'm going to open seven vine seven and a half pretty much everywhere in the world but we're gonna open seven and take a back. You think. sean can actually show for this. I don't think so. I think david i can't answer that. I don't know david kelly. What are you doing analytics analytics. What's the next one jeff sunday morning. I one cardinals. Jaguars cardinals jaguars okay. Arizona's one of the two knows as they survive. Greg joseph missed thirty seven yard field a win but they do not cover against minnesota. Yesterday they went at thirty four thirty three to cover. The four point spread their jacksonville arizona. Kyla murray twenty nine to thirty six for four hundred yards three touchdowns picks was that three to five carries for thirty one yards and a touchdown. He's just sensational to watch. He's just so awesome even though even the fact that he made some mistakes though. But rondell more seven catches for one hundred fourteen yards and a touchdown including one great eighteen yard pickup off a pass yesterday towards the end of the first half which allowed matt prater to get in sixty two yard field goal range which he drilled and that ends up being the difference of a win loss in this game. Four hundred seventy five total yards for arizona. They were minus two in turnovers in that game and still managed to jacksonville lawrence trevor lawrence. He may not be it man. Fourteen of thirty three for one hundred eighteen yards one touchdown to pick sacked one hundred eighteen yards jacksonville. Only had one hundred eighty nine total yards. They were minus two turnovers and their loss to denver in which they were out time of possession. If you will thirty eight fifty two to twenty one wait. I said arizona minus ten and a half on the road by high. Your high. i'm going to say. I like your number better but i might do for you. Yeah it's it's pretty much a blanket seven. I see seven half with big juice on the dogs. Evan my power ratings come to nine and a half now urban meyer. There's already rumors about him leaving.

Like i said he was off a little bit He said wilson handle it. Well he was fine. You get a great look. In his eyes he was he was getting conversation. It wasn't like he was overwhelmed. Was on zach. In his demeanor he is an electric dude. He's competitive crab his and he wants to win so bad but you know sometimes it's okay to be born. Electric dude is competitive crap. I liked this guy. He's funny and he knows what needs to improve sison making being smart with the ball. You know turnovers are big deciding factor in winning games. I thought defense played. Well you know.

Trevor i mean i can't believe this goes back to pop warner maybe it does trevor lawrence said first time he's lost back to back games in his life. Yes it was quite well already one straight games in high school and i think he was thirty four or thirty five into clemson. Pretty good now. He's a jacksonville and starts. Oh into town and a half. I'll answer go here. Was lamar jackson doing lamar jackson. Things last night golders center record. As the fullback williams the tailback now jackson polls back into the shot took takes the snap. Williams jackson keeps it. Runs right somersaults. Into the end zone touchdown ravens and baltimore's taking the lead. Yeah ryan radke westwood one on the fan. Couple of fourth quarter rushing touchdowns. Imagine me doing that point. All of us we're bringing. Our hip was his age. I could imagine doing that. Yeah well he is. He's later than i would think you probably weren't. You're playing. yeah yeah these faster. And he's just the last night was. That was the best of lamar jackson. Even though we through too bad interceptions gonna remember one guy. Return for a touchdown the other one he threw in the red zone to tyrod matthew but other nets eastbound knows. Defense stinks again. Here was jackson talking about the exchange. John harbaugh fourth and one. Kansas city added timeouts. They were on their side of the fifty and what they were going to do. Then go for it or not. I hear ya said again. Two years ago he told me a play on my. I was just reading. In coach james. Earn mccoubrey goes he. Like you gotta go. I gotta get this. I now no matter what he did. Get the first down and sealed. The game and baltimore wins thirty six. Thirty five titans. Top the seahawks in overtime thirty three thirty on a thirty six yard from randy bullock tennessee detroit by fourteen in the fourth earlier. We heard what it sounded. Like in minnesota as the vikings kicker greg joseph missed wide right on a thirty six yard. Or here's how. It sounded on fox. Sports nationally on tv johnson on fox gus johnson and keep to leib yes which is a dynamite. Pairing those guys are both very good. I did pick the cardinals with one of my knockout pigs. That's confidence yeah. Well they go to two and the vikings go into another last second field goal. This one goes in fifty six yards out from greg's airline as heard on. Cbs with nansen romo. The chargers home opener could in with sir lied. Make it a kick. Because he make make the call fifty six yards. Does it go. i could see it. That's not a call. Becca kick enough into the net for the factory. Greg's he really got into it for sure and it was right down the middle to had a terrible game opening night against tampa bay. Yes he did. Mr fuel an extra point correctly so they win. Twenty two seventeen raiders over the steelers twenty six seventeen Also of note. The rams beat the colts twenty seven twenty four in terms of the injuries from yesterday. Boy there are a lot to tongue of iowa. A rib injury. They're not sure how serious it is if it is. We'll find out later today. Jarvis landry mc l. injury in cleveland. T. j. watt. A groin injury for the steelers. Tyrod taylor a hamstring injury for the texans. Andy dalton the knee injury for the bears. So we saw justin feels a little bit Indianapolis carson wentz a leg. Injury philadelphia defensive end brandon graham. It looks like torn achilles. His season could be over and new orleans. Had eight coaches out due to cove it. So ninety seven coaches left. Don't well that's true. And i see. Cbs has Baker sports number is baker. Mayfield somebody did come back and play in. He threw the interception and made the tackle right and then limped off basically but he said it just popped in and out and was fine so okay three of those guys right. There are always her tyrod taylor to a and carson wentz. They're always her. I mean it's like it'd be news if they actually made it through the game and we're probable the next week certain guys just. It's every time you turn around and something wrong with carson. Wentz got hurt Because of aaron donald it was a uh tried to come back into the not eating coming back again. I think it's the same foot that he had surgery on to. I know if it's foot and ankle or you know maybe it's a high ankle sprain. Maybe it's awesome your fracture. Who knows the way his leg was bent was not it was not good. Yankees got clocked by the indians. On saturday on sunday the yankees got clocked by the indians again and the bitches line to right center another basin audio like that guy. One run scores. the second run comes in scores. It's a two run. It or jose ramirez made it ten one indians at that point. Yeah eleven one would be the final as the indians. Take two of three from new york over the weekend. That was jose ramirez. Harold ramirez had a pair of two-run singles. Early on in this game. And roberto peres singled. Homework drove in a couple of runs. Tough tough day for garrett cole. Here as aaron boone on his out actually thought he's thrown the ball. Well there you know. And then you're you know obviously up against it down a little bit and give a couple of home runs but you know certainly as lines not indicative of how he seven runs over five and a third gave up ten hits. I don't know how you could actually say that i. It wasn't like it was sending runs on three errors to coach. Can hurt anybody's feelings. I guess he was boone. What needs to change with this club. Seven and fifteen in the last twenty two gotta play really good baseball If we're going to even think about being where we want to be well they can start tonight as they take on the texas rangers. Mr cortes with the start the yankees now trail toronto by a game and a half for that. Second wildcard spot. Forget boston at this point right now. It's toronto that they are chasing You've got aj alexi going for the rangers coming up later tonight. As for the mets sunday night game against the phillies winning three to jeff.

"And then they just had a rash of other defensive injuries which sealed the deal week. Fifteen so this team was a mash unit on defense by the end of the year and really crippled early in the air. So apparently austin powers is to outdated of reference for aj. so when you say mash injuries. Which i i guess. That's more of a. i mean. Obviously it was a show. But i think that's more of are you know a the armed forces term but is your. There's probably people that use that term. Have no idea what references now. It's been a tv. Now again. i. I'm a fan of Pro football focus is. They actually started something. I don't know if you saw it's called wins lost injury or they had another name but it wasn't as good as i 'cause what they do for each player is have a war right. Which is same as baseball is wins over replacement. I guess and so the theory is okay. Like a quarterback's words big debate about running backs. Is you know chop how many wins izzy worth and how much is a win. How many millions is it worth in salary and all that debate right and if you think about it when you say someone's worth half a point okay well six or seven. Let's say seventeen games now. So there's going to be about eight points in change okay. A win is thirty. Five eight divided by thirty five one fourth quarter of a win. So that's what they're doing in their own way right which is really good because once you have that number you can do it with anything to how many how many war wins. Did they lose the injury. Because when you just look like you said games lost the guy who's not any better than his backup verse prescott. Okay so it's not split by offense or defense but looking at it. The vikings worthy least injured team in the nfl. They lost point. Three seven wins and that is the last in the nfl. Now doesn't change that. I think your case though it's reverse engineer saying well we know based on games loss third and you made the case. These were valuable players. Unquestionably but intrude. Let's be honest defensive players. Don't get a ton of credit in the pf model and price truth to that. So defense isn't as important as it used to be. But i think your case is very valid that the vikings should be a lot better on defense. And i would make one last point and this was just something i dug into coincidentally last year. They're they're d-backs so they drafted too young. The bags one was her and then throughout the year about four or five of them got some real time young ones and they all look pretty decent so it looks like now hurt him. Last year gives them experience and a little bit adapt this year because they they kind of hit on some of those e back and it makes sense they hit on something because they had more draft picks and anybody else in the nfl the last two years and so many draft picks in the covert year just wasn't going to benefit them as much speaking a covert and we're talking with steve fabric. I'm not the host. So aj hoffman. I'm rj bell. Just just rj. No big deal. I wanted to mention. Listen to the listen to know joe man. That was coincidental. Sure i was going to mention the one of the one of the real areas that minnesota struggled especially in the second half. Last season was their special teams. They were disaster second half of the year second half of the year. Yeah dan bailey was a mess. Missed a bunch of field goals. That's obviously going to be there. Were thirty first. Here's the thing. And i don't know i don't think we've ever discussed this is if you look at Special teams rankings especially those like four or five teams that have any correlation year-over-year the patriots the ravens kansas city. It's a small group otherwise it's almost purely random so my thought would be. How much do we look year over year with special okay. That's fair kicking was bad last season. And it's a great point. Aj brings up if it is indeed random. You get a team. Like the vikings eighth and offense football. Outsiders numbers eighteenth on defense even with all those injuries. Wait a minute. Why didn't this team contend for a playoff berth. The thirty first and special teams bailey. Missing all those kicks. They go out and replace dan. Bailey with a guy named greg joseph. Have you guys heard of this greg. Joseph character no. He was an undrafted way way way. He went to the technical school when i was in high school. Okay well the hell delis bottom. Oh actually go ahead. Signed by the dolphins in two thousand eighteen as an undrafted free agent spent time with realized that there's only like two kickers decade that are drafted. Sure all gonna be undrafted free. That's fair spent time with the dolphins brown's panthers titans bucks and now he's with his six team in less than three years. Something tells me this. Guy's not the next justin talker. I remember when morten andersen you're going on signed free agent when the saints got him. Did he get kicked around six teams before three years in the league. It happens along man it happens. I i'm not listen. They're going to get worse. They're going to have the thirty second best kicker in the world. That's a great point in the thirty second. Best kicker make seventy five percent of his field goals. These days. i'm not worried about acres was weird is when the bears spent all that time worrying about kickers then kind of gets in their head a little then they got this guy santos they just pick up off the street and he's perfectly good. What's funny is you want to hear something. Wild wild is my best body. Who's a coach or an administrator. So she kind of thing but his older brother was a kicker at a small school capital university in ohio. A division three school and he was drafted in the nfl as a kicker So i think it was a six round and eighty three check. Check either was dragged in eighty three but he was a straight on kicker real. Yeah old school never made it. But there was like three or four but think about how many acres have been drafted and this was think six route so back. Then there was like twelve rounds. But if you'd say in the seventh round or.

Use the tb twelve method for her knee as well or she had been tv twelve. And i think that mike evans of the team you twelve math and helped his knee as well. So it's a total turnaround from win. Thomas at the patriots and of course they kicked alex guerrero out of the facility because he was helping other players in the facility and they didn't want him to and so. It's a huge turnaround. As far as that goes. I just thought it was interesting. We had talked about it in the off season. Yes yeah it was fun it. We talked about it in the bucket. Here's media this. It's almost like they still don't know who this guy is. But he's a. He's a huge huge. Huge part of tom. Brady's life and most people speculate that's the reason why he left. The patriots is because they wouldn't let has been his business partner to Wouldn't let him be involved with the The locker room. Anyone actually kicked him out of the facility and so when he came here to tampa. I'm sure that was part of the things. Like i want to bring my guy in and all this stuff you know. Bruce arians was like we don't care who all right. I've got the injury report in the nighttime ready to wrap it up. How about you you got anymore on the bucks side jeremiah. Ledbetter with his calf injury has not participated all week he has been ruled out andrew atoms. It was not injury related He was out thursday and friday and is questionable. Ronald jones do not participate wednesday. He returned in limited capacity thursday and friday his questionable as i sat short whitehead sustained a knee injury in practice. It looks like he was fine. Wednesday popped up. All the report on friday enhance questionable. Alton davis has a groin injury. He was limited wednesday and thursday but was a full participant on friday. Mike evans with any injury. He was limited all week. He's got no injury designation. Chris godwin has a hip anna quad injury and he was limited. Wednesday and thursday did not participate. Friday probably arresting because he has no designation an alley marquette popped up on friday on the injury report was a pictorial injury but lows a whole participant on vernon shawn mccoy he the hill but was a full participant on week. Jp with his knee injury. He did not participate all week but no injury doesn't nation dot com sue his Veterans day off on friday. No injury designation there on the saints side. We the stall are hardly anybody they get six people that their quarterback patrick robinson has a hamstring. Injury did not participate all week and is out taint. Some hill has a knee. Injury participate wednesday thursday. He was limited friday. Of course. we're hearing today's probably not gonna play seed running back latavius. Murray had a quad injury Participate wednesday and thursday was limited friday in his questionable tackle. Terron armstead has an elbow injury. He was limited wednesday and thursday but a full participant on friday titan. Jared coke has a back injury. He was limited wednesday and thursday and a full participant on friday and then defensive end choi try. I think training hendrickson has a neck injury. He was limited wednesday and thursday but a full participant on friday. So the only one that looks like well the for sure. They're going to miss. Patrick robinson but probably also he's until all right. So what do you think. give it. give our predictions. Let's get out of here and start watches football day. The saints only put up twenty one. It's the bears. So i'm going a little more optimistic. I'm just gonna say. I think the bucks are gonna win. Let's take the box palmer. I'm a homer completely. i'm gonna go with saints. Twenty three bucks twenty eight. okay. I'm gonna go with the bucks thirty two the saints thirty one. I think that's gonna be it. We got it is. We got it here. We go. we win this. We are in a c. championship balance. We'll be playing the packers at lambeau field. That's a scary thought in itself but a we beat the mess out of packers early in the year where we weren't that good we. We lost via apps. first game without vida Still wasn't anyhow. Yeah so we'll be playing the packers but we can't look that far ahead we gotta beat this game. Beat this team. One of the big things i worry about is the coaching. I do think there. Coaching staff does have an edge on coaching staff. Unfortunately they come up with trigger plays they do more in game adjustments. I guess you would say that could be an age that'll have but and come on. Let's do this. let's do this. We got it. Everybody gets the positive energy out. There box are gonna win win. All right that's gonna wrap it up for us guys. Get excited here. We go till next time..
