NFL Game Debut is a production of the NFL in partnership with I Heart Radio. Hello, Hello, Hello, Welcome to Game day View, presented by Little Caesars Pizza. Guys, how are we feeling? We're inching closer and closer to the big dance, the big day almost there. I'm ready for Greggy. I do have some bad news for you. We are wiping the slate clean the regular season. Get out of here. We're giving somebody else a chance. But see what you're doing.
You're still You're still up there. Okay. So yeah, I'm going to wear the crown one day. Okay, I'm just saying that. There are only two more shows. They can't do three crowns for us. I'm a figure it out their crowns. Oh yeah, guys, can we just do that? The last show, all of us are wearing nice crowns. Okay, everyone wins our little participation trophies. Okay, it's time to talk. Who is punching their ticket? Presented by ticket Master Sin.
Let's start with the NFC games. The final game of Divisional Weekend Niners, Cowboys, give me all of the nineties vibes. This is the closest game of the weekend. According to fan Duel, last year's game ended insane. I'm so excited for this one. So I'm looking at this one and I have a four point win for the forty niners to twenty one. We love some good weird scores with can't get out of it. But I really want to talk about Brock Purty here to Deebo Samuel, Why because
to me, that's kind of the X factor. That's the thing where I don't know what the answer is going to be. But we you see some injuries to that secondary, and you see how versatile Debo has been, not just this year, but also last year. Last year he gave them fits. I think that's going to run it back and be the same thing again this time. I'm watching last game. You saw what the Cowboys tried to do, like switching over where their slot corner was, and then
they switched up their safeties a little bit. And now that's going to be different because you're on curse has been on the injury report, so is he healthy? I don't know, but I do know that Deebo Samuel is going to have a big game. It is so hard to pick against his forty Niners team right now, they just feel like they're a bunch of superhumans. And I'm not going to do it, but I'm gonna thread the
needle here. It's gonna be a theme. So threading the needle means we think the game's gonna be closer than that score on the screen. But I am taking the fort in the game anyways. The reason I think it's gonna be close is Dak Prescott is by far the best quarterback in this game. I don't know why this became a debate. It's no slight to Brock Purty, but there is absolutely nothing Purty can do as well as
Dak Prescott can do. Dak Prescott throughout his first what eight years in the league now has reminded me more of Peyton Manning than any quarterback to come into the league since. And it's because he wins before the snaps he had just during the game. He could do everything like that, And just like Peyton Manning back in two thousand and five, Dak Prescott is twenty nine years old right now, I just feel like he's I don't know,
that's clear. So just trying to give Patrick a dance to catch up in the standings because it is hard to do have a bunch of super humans, but I'm gonna do it. Humans is Trent Williams because nobody's arguing. Nobody has anything bad to say about Trip Williams unless you're a disgraced former NFL executive in an email. But there is something that Trip Williams can't do, and that's playing multiple spots on the line at the same time.
Because Michael Parsons can rush from the right side. We saw him do it earlier in this season against Joe Burrowing Company. We saw him do it last week against Tampa Bay. One problem facing the forty and ours is dealing with Trip was we just moved Michael Parsons over. And I think Dan quinn is going to solve that little bit of the equation. That Cowboys win at twenty to twenty one on a Brett Mark Felie. I can get behind that. I love that. But on the other side,
Robbie Gold is absolutely perfect on field goal. You do have that working against you. I'm gonna come give me the forty nine over Christian McCaffrey this weekend. I think he is going to absolutely ball out. Dallas's ranked second in rushing defense. He's he's done nothing but be amazing since he has touchdown. I heard this incredible story of George Kittle. He was playing video games and his friend was like, oh, bro, have you seen Twitter? And he's like, no,
what's going on Twitter? And they're like, you just said Christian McCaffrey and he's like, bro, I didn't even know it is happening. And he was just all rainbows and butterflies after that. So there he was like a really accurate depiction. I think that that is exactly how sound like. I think that that's what happened. And then they did one of these was oh I love wrestling this guy or that guy. Let's get into it. Greg. Both quarterbacks
through for multiple touchdowns last week. Who is more likely to do it again on Sunday? Well, I just spent five minutes talking about Dak Prescott, so it's Dak Prescott, of course. But I do want to say why I think Black Purty will go under one and a half touchdown. It's not about Black Purty, It's about the is running game. That is ultimately why I picked the Cowboys to win this game. I think they're going to run the ball show. Somebody called the show you have to switch it. You
can switch Okay, I guess I'm switching it. Why not, let's under on part I love that saying, Okay, Tony Pollard was the more effective runner against Tampa, but they will likely go with Zeke near the goal line. Who was more likely to score against the Nighters? I mean, is Fred Werener still playing? Because I don't think either they were super likely to play. However, between the two, I actually think Tony Pollard has a better opportunity. Why
because he's the guy who breaks more tackles. I understand a lot of the red area carries go to Z, but I think if a rushing touchdown is going to be scored, it's not going to be on a goal line stand. It's going to be on something where he kind of breaks for more yards, maybe a deeper red area like ten fifteen yard type of situation. So more likely Tony Pollard, but neither are particularly likely. Also, he's
much better at football than Ezekiel Elleton. I would like to Tony Pollard's agent because I've been singing his praises and I'm like, what this guy? Pay Tony, Hi, you can call me at see Freeland. I Tony Pollard needs to be grace this offseason. Okay, Patrick, over to you. Big days for both Brandon Aouke and Debot against the Seahawks. Who has the bigger day against Alice? I'm going to take Deebo Samuel, especially if we're talking and receiving yards.
There's just so much opportunity for Debo to get a yard age after the catch, in which I think that Cal shanahan is going to get Debo the ball early and in space, and it's it's Debo Samuel, especially Deebo in the playoffs. Just look corners trying to move with him. Linebackers. I just don't see it. I think Debo has a big game, but but again, it can all be Debo. Forts are going to come up with just a little bit short, and officially, I think it was my sure
the change. We'll check in later in the show if you're regreted. Okay, Let's take a look at some of Cynthia's numbers in this game. She's got a Christian McCaffrey going for over a hundred yards from scrimmage and a Seedee lamp touchdown. Cynthia talking through it, she got alright, So when I'm looking at Christian McCaffrey, I completely agree with you, Rachel think I think it's good, bro. I think it's going to be like a big game. Bro.
It's me trying really hard. Not that does work. Um, but look, when I look at Christian McCaffrey's opportunity, this is what has kind of been the straw that stirs the drink. When he came here, it changed everything on that forty Niners offense with the obviously change at quarterbacks. So Christian McCaffrey's utility I think is going to be really on showcase here. So yes, I think both scrimmages, so both types of script years rushing and receiving yards.
I think that's gonna be a nice big day for him, potentially even a touchdown as well. And then on the other side with Ceedee Lamp, I think that is the matchup that you want. I saw some shar various world. I think he is a very good corner, but he is beatable and i've Ceedee Lamb turn people around. It's no slight on Jevarious Word, who's had a good season, but Lamb is just really really good. Alright, it is time for Pizza Pizza pregame predictions presented by Little Caesar's
Iron those m v P chants. I don't know about you, guys. Eagles Giants, the primetime game on Saturday, Gregg, the Eagles swet them and the regular season is it a clean swee I believe it will be. It's another thread the needle game for me, where the Giants keep it close for a while, but the Eagles win, and it's because of the guys up front. You think of Philadelphia as this analytically driven team with Howie Roseman and this big
analytics department. But what do the numbers say, Cynthia. Often they say pay the big men, like give all your money to offensive lineman and defensive lineman, and that's where they're at their best. And I think that's where they win this game. We're watching Jalen Hurts throw these dimes down the field because he has all day to throw. They make it easier on him, and he is one of the best deep ball throw hours in the league. Their defensive line is also incredible and can win their
matchup up front. So the numbers, Cynthia, big men, I feel like that's underrated. Absolutely pay BigMan, but also pay a really good wide receiver. Hey, the entire defense like the more better players, the more better than math. That's just kind of happen. There was a team that elected to not pay a wide receiver, and he's one of the reasons Philadelphia has been pretty good. You know, analytics
is a big umbrella. I think sometimes people get included in that umbrella, maybe because before DeVante Smith was drafted, there were a lot of B M I fans that were like, Oh, he's too skinny, he won't get off press covers. Well, teams tried to press cover DeVante Smith this season. It did not work. It also didn't work with A. J. Brown, especially when the Eagles blew out the Giants in Week fourteen. So what do they do? They came back and they played off coverage in the
Week eight teen game. Yeah, I know it was a lot of backups playing, but I think we're gonna see a lot of DeVante Smith, a lot of a J. Brown in wide receivers screens. Jalen is gonna get the ball out early and quick in that off coverage that they're gonna eat up some yardage. I've got the Eagles winning twenty to twenty four the Giants making late push too much Philly offense as well as this pressure defense. I'm glad you kept it close because you upset the Giants.
Fans had very nice things to say about you. He was not pleased with me. Yeah, I heard them. He read them aloud. Amazing the seventh point wind. So all three of us are keeping it closed to one is the score that I have and that one and I do want to talk about one of those giants. I want to talk about Isaiah Hodgens. I think I saw some pretty cool stuff from him, meaning ahead of the snap, they switched around the alignment, they moved him around the formation.
They confused the Minnesota secondary by saying, okay, well is he in the wider reser one or where's he supposed to be on this play? And what happened was is he actually, like really tricked like Harrison Smith who's very good, and he tricked Pat Peterson. So the reality is is that he's getting better. He's really I think his b M I really ideal place. How did we get talking
about b M I on this show? Because you know he's a perfect ways just a perfect weak but you know, look at Isaiah Hodges has been squorking touchdown so obviously has the trust of his coach and it's a good one to watch. But ultimately I think that it's it's the Philadelphia Eagles with they're very very strong defensive front and back and old line and white severs, all of the strong face and that's what they're I just think
that they're a stronger team. Make it a clean sweep, a cross the board, mean alert all day long, twenty four. Just like you guys, I do think that the Giants keep it rather close. Brian Davils says, there is only one Jalen Hurts, and I'm sad that we got to We had to miss out on Jalen Hurts. And as much as I love Gardner Minshew, he was we weren't able to experience the full Jalen Hurts season because he
was injured. I wish that he had one more I wish that they almost didn't have the buys that we could have seen a little bit more of Jalen Hurts. He could have gotten back into the rhythm of things. But he had one more. But you can look at it the other way. He had one more week to heal up, but I'm going Eagles over the GMN. Alright,
Greg versus the Model. This Gregor is talking, talking, talking tuk Alright, lots of tension this year between Greg and the Model trying to bully Cynthia and changing trying to tell me that other people's models are better than I did nothing where Um, it's not going to change on your little whims, but we're gonna try. Okay, what's your
first take? Care? I like this segment. Okay, I don't know what the Model thinks on Dallas Godder this week, but I just think from a football perspective, I look at those Giants linebackers and I look at them as food, you know. I think Jalen Hurts looks as them as food, Like they are the weakest part of this game, the Giants linebackers, And so I think Dallas Godder beats them and their safeties and coverage just lots of yards, all
the yards for Dallas Gotter. I'm actually the model. The Model knows football, and the Model is completely aligned with you. It's not versus, it's Greg and the Model versus. It's Greg and the adel On in this one. We know one thing. We know that this Giant's team is going to blitz. You know how you stop the blitz You throw a shorter pass. That means that there's space at that linebacker level. So the food aka the linebackers and the space all aligned for Dallas Goddard to have a nice,
big day. In fact, for DFS purposes, he is my absolute favorite pick at the position of This isn't what they want though, the skip in and like yelling at each other. I've never skipped. I'm Greg and I'm going against the model here. I hope I'm going points score fest in Jacksonville, Kansas City. I feel stronger about this than like any team winning this week, just that there will be so many points in this game, more than they expect. And I just think it's offense offense, and
even if there's turnovers, it doesn't matter. I think this game is in the thirties for both teams. Okay, so I mean, I don't know about thirties for both teams, but I think it's it's also Greg and the model, this one, this segment. Listen, it's it's all about being copasetic. No, let's be honest. I have a slightly lower number than perhaps a line that's drawn in a sandy sandy line. But I don't think it's going to be a low scoring game. I just don't know. Thirties a little too
too rich for my blood in this one. Well what happens though? If I defeat the model? You know how these? Then maybe will the model becomes sentient and start hating you? I don't know. This is too much for me to think about. I'm freaking out a new movie. We're putting everyone in an awkward business. I get to be Shannon. Oh boy. Okay, coming up after the break, we're talking Bills Bengals. I'm sure this is going to be an emotional roller coaster for absolutely everybody involved. But I am
very excited to watch this football game. Don't go anywhere. I'm gonna talk about it next. Who it is? Dog Bard him of the cap presented by New Era. We want pizza on this show, okay, and we also love hats and props. We were all split on how this game would play out a few weeks ago. But what do we think about this Sunday? Since? Okay, I got it cute. It's so cute on the back too, It's perfect. I'm not gonna put it on because somebody spent a lot of time on my hair. But let's I got
the Bills. I've spent too much money for that. I spent too much perfect this is fantastic. So I've got the Bills winning this game to twenty three. I looked at the injury report and the Bengals are missing not one, not too but three of their starting Oh lineman Lyle Collin's obviously already on. I r Alex Cappa not playing. Who's on the left side. He's not playing either, John Williams. So look, at the end of the day, I don't like the opportunity to sack Joe Burrow when I'm looking
at Joe Burrows. Opportunities to complete short passes. Absolutely, Jamar Chase and space is a thing. But I still think it's just it's too much. You can't you can't lose, lose too many. Guess Oh, she's gonna actually put the hat on. Oh that's a good buck. Yep, this is this is great. Congratulations shady figure over. So don't like good hair, you know, I'm also going to take uh take my talents to New York with the Buffalo Bills
here in a win in a fun game. But as Cynthia mentioned, the losses up front from the Bengals have put Joe Burrow in a situation where he's gonna need to throw short passes and number two in the league in terms of short touchdown passes, trailing only Tom Brady with with nineteen. But Leslie Fraser, who oddly enough hasn't gone on like everybody's going on coaching interviews except the guy. It's weird. Defensive coordinators need to be somebody interviewed these guys.
They're gonna be busy trying to win a super Bowl. But this Bill's defense has been so good all season and missing all the guys are I think Fraser is going to be able to adjust even without Vaughan, who we wish was playing in this game, which everybody was healthy and be able to play in this game. But I've got the Bills here. Too many losses, too good of a defense, fun game. I don't like this. I
like the Bengals this week. I can't believe they're five and a half going underdogs, This Bengals team, who might be the best team in the entire RNFL. I think everyone's overreacting here to the offensive light. I couldn't talk about Joe Burrow getting rid of the ball quickly. He will, but let's talk on a room. Well we're Sharon Hats potentially, I don't even know. Okay, I don't know. Okay, here we go. That does look pretty good. I'm gonna talk at Rum here like the Bengals are the reason they're
gonna win this game. I think he's better at adjusting in game than given credit for. Maybe they'll go all out in terms of blitzing the Miami did, and then they'll change it right back up. But it's the players. Ultimately, it's Jesse Bates. You can bring him on the blitz, but you can also have him protecting the deep ball. I love their linebacker group. Everyone talks to Milano and Edmunds, but Logan Wilson is getting it done week after week.
His guy Jermaine Pratt is the one who stood up Tyler Huntley last week to set up the play, the fumble and the jungle. That's what we're calling it now. And just this group, to me, is the best defense in this game. And I think that Josh Allen Bills have shown a little vulnerability. Greg did you did you bring out the cigars I brought. Maybe I'm going Bengals, and you know what, I will talk about Joe Brow
under pressure. Hasn't he always been under pressure? I feel like over the past since he started in the league, we're like Joe Burrow has just been hit and sacked the most times every single season. He made it into the Super Bowl last year. Wasn't he also missing some guys? The same guys are back now this year. Oh where the cigars? Why them off? I have got the Bengals winning this one. Although I will say if Tamar Hamlin comes out before the game, which is a possibility, I've
heard that he has been walking around the facility. If he does, that place is gonna lose its mind and it is going to be one of the most most beautiful things that we have ever seen in football. And I cannot wait. Um Sin sticking with this game for a minute, you like big things for Gabe Davis and with the Bengals offensive line struggling, work to establish show mix in early play off, Gabe, play off. Look, I think that we see the playoff Gabe Davis. We saw
a little glimpse of it last week. But Gabe Davis in this interesting matchup the corners. You didn't mention, you know, in your in your amazing defensive argument, Greg you didn't mention either corner because they're not as good as the other players. That that was helping to prove my point, right, got it? So the opportunity for Gabe Davis to not just get more than fifty five rush or receiving yards but also score a touchdown goes way up. And then on the other side, you gotta run the ball to
stay away from the pature. Obviously the Bills would have more pressure von Miller were there, but running the ball early and often it will be one way to keep Joe Burrow upright, which is what That's how he throws past this when he's standing up, not on his back. It's time for quick big. Let's take a look at all the games this weekend. Everyone's in agreement about who the top quarterback will be this weekend? Will everyone except
Joe Burrow? I do, because honestly, if the Bengals are gonna move the ball at all, it's gonna be Joe Burrow throwing the ball. I think Patrick Mahomes is gonna have a great game. I also think the Chiefs are gonna be able to run the ball. Maybe there's some tight end runs for Travis Kelsey, Jerk McKinnon, get Andy Reid's gonna do a whole bunch of stuff because they can. The literal only way that the Bengals are gonna move the ball is Joe Burrow throwing, maybe even throwing on
his back. Who knows, but that I think that's the only way it happens. So I've got Joe Burrow with the most passing yards, right. I love to see is the one where in the Bengals hats we loved like you look confused your talking. He's already know we're gonna that they're playing from behind and have to pass. Yeh. Then let's look at the running backs. I'm the only one not riding with Miles Sanders this weekend. Tell me why I am wrong. Christian McCaffrey against that Dallas rushing defense,
I feel pretty good about it. I think Christian mccafre will have the most scrimmage yards, but for rushing yards, I think that Miles Sanders will have the most in this matchup. The Giants have been the most susceptible to the run, especially outside runs, and I'm pretty sure that that running back room absolutely knows that. Plus when you see where the running backs are actually a little bit
maybe not as great. It's picking up the blitz and figuring out on the passing out run a lot, so you're in like third and short and then you can throw. You can keep it all nice enough and obvious so that the defense can't clue in on what's going on. I just took Sanders because I thought everyone would take McCaffrey, and I thought it'd be cute. Now I got all right, it's not funny. I switch it alright. Greg. Absolutely no common ground between the four of us on who have
most receiving yards this week? Tell us why a Ceedee Lamb, and we will all look at you with books of oh why would you do that? When it comes to Cede Land, he wins everywhere he wents in the middle of the field. I kind of think this defense is vulnerable there. Who Fonga has given up a lot of big places this year. I know he made the All Pro list. Gifts in their other safety like Ceedee Lamb gets it done after they catch, and he's the true one. All these other teams spread it out a little bit.
It's all about I'm just saying you up. You know what I mean. Alright, it's time for in it to win. It presented by into a Turbo tax. Greg was the only one that didn't believe in the Jags last week. Greg, I think that they take the floor. Find your camera, and I think you've got some apologies to make right now. I mean, I'm not apologizing to anyone. When he's seven to nothing. I was looking at that, just Gregg and celebrating in my kitchen and I'm picking against you again
thirty seven to thirty. I do think it's gonna be close. This is the fourth straight thread the needle game I pick. But there's only one Patrick Mahomes in this game to talk about. Trevor Lawrence is exciting, Like is he a top ten quarterback or not? What a great improvement. Think about what Patrick Mahomes was doing in his second season. He was the m v P and he is better
now than he's ever been. The game has slowed down for him, and I know the Jaguars pass rush has been better lately, but I'm just not worried about it when it comes to Mahomes because he sees the plays evolving in slow motion. Andy Reid creates plays for him, but he creates more plays on his own than Lawrence does. In a high scoring game, you gotta take Mahomes at home. It's hard not to. It's hard not to. Am I going now, you go ahead? And he started talking to
We're talking about Patrick home. So I'll talk about because he's very good and I'm not gonna get caught up in the quarterback comparison thing. But we should appreciate number fifteen while we can, because he's one of the best in the game. You could argue about the all times stuff, but there was one thing that happened when these two teams played earlier this season hasn't happened since the Jaguars only brought five guys one time. It's the fewest amount
of blitz is that Patrick Mahomess faced all season. It's the fewest the Jags of blitz all season. And yes, Travon Walker, the number one overall pick, has come on more. Uh, he's played better as the season has gone on. But it's all Patrick Mahomes in the playoffs doing his thing running. We saw that Bengals bring three guys drop eight into coverage a whole lot. The last thing that was the last time the Chiefs had a playoff loss, and they saw it a lot. This season, they're better against that.
Look thirty four nine. I do agree it's a score fest. But Patrick Mahomes running is the difference here. Oh, It's amazing that when you see the thing over and over again to get better against it. Right, So who would have thought, Look, I have a pretty I have a thread the needle situation here to thirty to twenty two and eight point win four the Kansas City Chiefs. And some things are different, like a lot of the past catchers, but some things are exactly the same, and one big
one would be Travis Kelsey. And the interesting part about this game is that one of the most vulnerable areas of this Jags defense is their ability to allow slot receivers to catch passes. Not only do we see some interesting things where Travis Kelsey is obviously he aligns with a slat when he catches passes, but he's also out wide. He's also creating different looks and they have different pre
snap formation. So I still think that, like you know, we're going to see this monstrous Travis Kelsey game yet again, because in this case, everything's still the same, right, Like there's a whole bunch of other guys and Patrick Mahomes has been spreading the ball so much this season, and absolutely he deserves to be the m v P. And I still think that Travis Kelsey, though, is a security blanket and that's what's gonna be the key to this game clean sweep. It's the Chiefs. I kind of love
that we all have it. It's not a blowout, like we're all kind of giving the Jags a little bit of a shot here. I know that you saw Trevor Lawrence go and celebrate at the waffle house after his first playoff win. Patrick Mahomes was asked about that this week and he was just like, Yeah, that was really neat. I wonder what I'm gonna do when I win my next pot. Like it was already like he's like thinking, like this is anywhere he's going, little scene there's wow,
Hey the woman her dollars. Okay, I've actually got more or less greggy. Travis Kelsey had a touchdown in every game during last year's playoffs, So let's make this interesting more or less than one and a half touchdown against the jack I mean, I feel bad because Cynthia just talked about how Travis Kelsey's gonna dominate and I don't. I don't have a model or anything, but Travis Kelsey scored.
I really made some movement in your relationship. Earlier, Skip, I was about to do the math, and that was all I was saying about the model, was like I could do some simple math. Here it is. He scored twelve touchdowns. That's the most he's ever scored in a season. That's great, one of the best, but that's less than the amount of games played. So you see averaging less than one touchdown a game and you got to score too to get it over one and a half. It
just seems good math. You know better at math. The model San Jerick McKinney. Jared McKinnon has a touchdown in six straight games, more or less than half a touchdown Saturday. I think he gets in the end zone. I think it's a really big and important thing in this game to establish the run in the playoffs. We've seen it at the end of the season. That's kind of how
they got there. Plus, if you're running the clock out, you want to be mindful of how that clock works because we've seen Trevor Lawrence score very quickly, so you want to be in control. I'm not suggesting they're gonna play ball control. I'm not gonna suggesting it's going to be a slow paced game, but I do think it's going to be important, especially in the red area, to make sure zero turnovers. McKinnon's the way to do it,
Okay Patrick. One oh nine hundred and nine rushing yards for Travis e t N last week against the Chargers more or less than sixty nine and a half. It was a bit of a layup last week against the Chargers rush defense a little bit tougher here, but I am going to take Travis Etn to have over sixty nine and a half after it was twenty seven to nothing.
Travis Etn actually outtouched Austin Ekeler in the game. Doug Peterson is never going to get away from the run game, and why not when you have a guy that's this explode so they can do this kind of damage on the ground. I think Travis c t is gonna get the opportunities and I think it's going to get the yards. Love that you love to see it um coming up. I feel like we need to just keep on working on the relationship between Greg and the model. Forget about football.
We need to really dive deep and see what is going on Greg like a VR helmet. Just need to be conflict is my love language? Fine? Alright, plenty more to discuss that. So you love the moddle whoa, It's the sixth love wing Samber over most of the game's hovering around fifty total points. According to Vanduel, Jags Chiefs
is at fifty two and a half. It is the biggest over under of the weekend Builds Bengals at four to nine and a half, Giants Eagles at forty eight and a half, and Cowboys Niners smallest of the four at forty six and a half. Let's start with what the Desert says will be the highest scoring game on the weekend, and I say it is not high enough. Points fast points, fast points fast right, Yeah, I am the desert in this case. Like you could make this line at sixty, I think it will still go over.
And I feel bad because you can mean alert US Jaguars fans, we picked against you. I've been down in here, but I had to you score in thirty points because Trevor Lawrence is awesome. I think it gets rid of the ball quickly and there's a lot of yards after the catch. The Chiefs aren't really good at tackling in space, and that's what the Jaguars make you do, so I think they'll make this a great You can try and
make up. You can try and make it up to Jags fans by saying something nice about they're gonna remember what you said earlier in the shower. Then, I mean by half a point, I have just a lower in this one total points. You know, did you just booming? And the real tri very mean? Patrick? What are you going with? Ye? I wish we could make it unanimous. So if she gets in theater, Chane never not after
him just a half point away. And Jacks fans aren't gonna be just because they know what's up, like Jacks fans perhaps better than any fan plase they get it and they understand that we're picking the Chiefs and they're not gonna like send us mean messages. And now I like Jacks fans there, passag I think you exactly turned off this program as soon as he started talking trash about twenty minutes ago, so they're not gonna hear any of these nice things. He was saying. All right, Giants
Eagles is the next game? The point totals set at forty eight and a half. I have got the over, Jalen Hurts Daniel Jones going back and forth. I think this game is gonna be very, very fun. Yeah. I think you look at these two teams, which side do you trust? Ultimately? I trust both offenses more than I trust both defenses. That's true of the Eagles as well. In their zone defense. I think they give up some points here. Everything Greg said was two I'm so nice
to him and he just beats me. Overt love, I love love and points over over over love to see it. All right? This next one Bengals Bills forty nine and a half. I don't know how you go under. I am going way over. Oh is that a reaction as if you're going under? I am going under. I think it's going to be more of a defensive game, not just the offensive line for the Bengals struggling, but maybe the offensive line for the Bills. Both defenses little underrated.
Does it mean it can't be a great game? Yes? Look at that look. Oh should not even speaking to you anymore. I'm actually Cynthia's a new representative, and I will be communicating to you from her. Patrick Burgs all alone, Cynthia says, Cowboys forty nine, forty six and a half. Why stop now? I am going for for im the overs points points points points points. Yeah, we had a lot of points last weekend too, we had a lot of overs. I'm going over on this one. I'm glad
this game is last too. I feel like you can't follow this game this weekend. This is the perfect capper by a half a point. I have the under. I think both defenses are the strength of the team, and if you get those turnovers, maybe that pick six could mess up my under, but I think it's another nobody's alone here. I'll stay with Cynthia and take the under because I like the Dallas defense in this one. Okay, you love to see it, all right, and it is
time for quick picks. Let's give the tight ends some love, shall we? Starting with Evan Ingram. Cynthia, Will he score a touchdown? Yes? He will. I think that this is a good one. If you look at those downfield passes. That is where the Chief's defense has been susceptible ten plus are yard passes. They have given up the second highest passer rating to them, one twelve. I think Evan Ingram, who has been a very reliable target Trevor Lawrence, will
be the beneficiary of this. You said that Tony Pollard you wanted to be his agent. I want to be Evan Ingram's. Hey, this guy like we're making money free agency year. Ninety three yards and a touchdown at the Charges last week, So go Evan Ingram Patrick. How about Dallas Goddard? Does he get in the end zone? Yes? Did you gotta see t J. Hockenson against this Giants defense last week? I will take Dallas Goddard. We're over
the camp everywhere. Pay everybody, but especially Dallas Goddard for what he does in this game against the jar Yes, get paid. No to the touchdown on mind, He's only got three touchdowns all season, so I'm gonna go now last one. Sorry, Travis Kelsey, no disrespect, but we've already covered it. You are good. How about Dawson Knox scoring on Sunday, Greg, I say no, I was just looking
at my score. I think it's a defensive game. I think Josh Allen running, Devin Singletary, Steffen Diggs gave David They're all more likely to score than Dawson Knox, who had that drop in the end zone last week, or else. Maybe that game wouldn't have been as close as a good player. I know one of your faves, Cynthia, but I say, now we're together. Look at you and the model. You guys came back around. This guy scored a touch on the last five games. Wow, let's go. I didn't
know that. It's like a romantic comedy where at the end, me and the model we get together. You guys right off from the sunset. Okay, it is time for write this down. I believe I get to go first. Travis Kelsey all day, all day, all year, Any game doesn't matter over for Travis Kelsey. Over eighty one and a half receiving yards and six and a half receptions, throwing a touchdown, throwing too, I don't even care anymore. The year of Travis Kelsey is great, great year of his career.
He's a controllingst he really is. It's impressive. Greg, what's your rate this down? I'm gonna predict two games in one. I'm giving extra fighting. It's got to be the Bengals in the Chiefs in the a f C Championships. Well, however you want to combine these two teams whatever you want to do. You know, the Jackson have been saying it was always the Jacks, like it was always the Bengals in Chiefs. This is the a f C rivalry. We need to see this again. I feel for Bills fans.
One of these teams has to lose Bengals Bills, and I just think this is the match of Joe Burrow Patrick Mahomes. We gotta see it again and see if the Chiefs can get off the schnit against them. Well, I'm looking at this Giant's game and looking at a guy who I also would like to be his agent. So Isaiah Hodgens hit me up. You know I got you. But look when you're looking at this game and how brand Dable has used him and the reliability this over
seems very low. Four and a half receptions against the Eagles. I expect the Giants to be playing from behind, which means more passes, which means more volume and targets for this guy who was not just been like a sure hand but also a sure red area target. And you can kind of tell who hasn't been watching when you hear people say, oh, the Giants have no receivers, It's like, no, they've got Isaiah Hodgens. He's a dude, perfect, am I.
That's the thing. The way to bring it back, Yeah, all the way back, because it was earlier when I was talking about Vante Smith and all the people who were like his mass index in it doesn't necessarily, it turns out it's a horrible metric to gage somebody's health. It's even worse when you're trying to project all football players. Has been spectacular. Sixty five and a half receiving yard. That's not enough, it's not I think Devonte Smith goes off against the Giants just like he did back in
week fourteen. There, yeh, they're gonna play off coverage is not gonna matter. They're gonna feed DeVante early and off in six five yards alf he's not enough. He's over that number easily. You two really quick. We just heard what Greg is predicting for a championship game. If there's a championship matchup that y'all are feeling really confident about what is it going to be. I buy my ticket to Atlanta. I think it's gonna be. I think it's going to be the Bills. I think of Bills. I
like Cowboys, Eagles. It's something. The fans they're gonna be they hate. It's gonna be a whole lot Twitter. It's gonna be crazy Anna saying mean things about the quarterbacks. That's gonna be horrible. But I can't wait for the game. Would the Eagles play that home game? They would, I am saying. Colleen Wolf and Michael Irvin posting that show again, they were able to understand and I would watch that. Alright, guys, enjoy all of the football. We will be back next week. Yeah.
