Monday's BEST BETS: Monday Night Football Picks + MLB Bets

0:00Good morning, everyone. Welcome to their early edge brought to you by Ben MGM. Make it legendary. Wow. What a Sunday we had in the NFL. A lot of excitement, a lot of terrible injuries. I'm sure we'll discuss that a little bit. But what we got to discuss first is the recap screen before we bring in the stars of the show to talk about Monday night football, little MLB as well. We go 12 and six on the weekend recap. I hit my prop A mags two for two. Brasco four out of six. Fuck it's two for two. The sports line picks don't help us out of town. Chip Patterson one for two and almost went to for two and Mike from the Wednesday show he hits his play. We'll take 12 and six. I guess last week we were what 12 and four or 11 and four. So these Friday shows have been really good. But I got to be honest our Monday night and Thursday night last week wasn't great. So let's bring in the stars of the show and try to correct our prime time slide. Ladies and gentlemen, we brought you prop stars. Meg Sharp, A mags and Eric Cohen, Propy. I got to start with you. I don't know how to.

1:10So look at Sunday. I mean, with some exciting games, but also a lot of seasons lost at least for my Washington commanders. It felt like the season was lost. And indeed, yeah, a while week of week two action soldier field also turned out to be really difficult conditions, but across the board just some crazy NFL action. We're deep in the throws of the NFL insanity and I could not be more fired up. Meg Sharp speaking of fired up. We've got giants Rams. How fired up you about this game. Well, as you can see over the shoulder, he got the angry runs. Happy cam scat about a to all folks. I am the biggest cam scat about fan and I cannot what weight to watch him in prime time. Again, two prime time games in a row. Maybe we get a backflip, but yeah, I am here to talk about cam scat about and could not be more excited. Hey, Max, I want to go to you next because the MLB slate is very thin today. Can you explain why? Yeah, this is I'm just here for the vibes, honestly, just to hang out. Like there's really nothing going on in MLB. This was kind of like a planned mutual off day for all the teams to where

2:20if you have to make a game up or something that always gets hard to say, hey, you know, they've got a game on this day. We don't now to have a shared off day. That's what they try to do towards the end of the year, but there just hasn't been too many rain outs. I've got a rescheduled. So you get a three game slate here and you kind of can just focus on Monday night football. I got Danny Brasco in the chat. FYI hit the like button if you could drop your questions. E.C. We're going to go to you for your reaction and your first two picks of the show. However, I want to get some sports line picks out there. We've got one from Bob and one from prop at guy. We're going Isaiah likely over four and a half perceptions. I expect him to have a pretty big game like you did last week over four and a half perceptions minus one 19 again from Bob Karnarski and Puka. Puka, Nakawa over six and a half perceptions. Is that right because this is from prop. I just we don't even know if he's going to play. Ben, I don't know. Maybe we take that one off property. Maybe you have some info on that. Yeah, I think Puka's props have come down off the board. The most recent reports regarding Puka is he's more unlikely. Then likely to play the line also shifted, which I think correlated to that news coming out. So I think at this point, it's pretty much

3:29foregone conclusion. He's going to miss the game. Yeah, he's at the very least doubtful. So we're going to reset that when we do the that's not going to be one of our picks because there's too much of an unknown. So Isaiah likely is going to be the only pick as far as the sports line picks are concerned. And when we do the recap at the end of the show, we will have that reflected as just Isaiah likely over four and a half perceptions at minus one 19 likely is likely to play. I mean, Beach, Bob, are we? I mean, okay, easy. First of all, you got two picks for us. But if you have any reaction from Sunday, please let us know. Yeah, I mean, what a what a mess of a Sunday. I mean, did you see the line on the note touched down in the bears Vikings game was 260 to one. Can you imagine putting a $10 on that? I mean, it changes your football season, see? Now, you wouldn't do that in your, I understand the weather, but is there any there's no way you would have thought that Caleb Williams blowing a tire running into the end zone probably? I mean, it was just okay. Here's also like super late in the game, but okay, yeah, fair enough. Yeah, but that's if you had the

4:31no touchdown bet at 260 to one, that would be something. The fucking years game getting delayed for three hours with a hurricane or whatever that was. And the Browns win on the road. I mean, what the Ravens losing it? I mean, this is a, see, this is one of the wackier Sundays. We'll see all year. Absolutely. All right, let's go to Monday night football, though. You see, you've got to play on this is funny. You hit your, for the prop show, you hit your field goal prop. Did you not say you have another one, but you also have a play on Blake Corm. Yeah, and I was not great on the prop show and listen, Propy, you and Dave called it. I gave out four picks, but the field goal pick I knew was good on Aubrey. See, Propy, that history that I gave you on Brandon Aubrey was legit. All right, here we go. Let's start with the field goal prop. Let's go over 128 and a half combined field goal yards at minus 115. All right. So we're doing some math here. We likely need four field goals to catch this. The three is possible if we get a 50 yarder. I project five total field goals in this game, three by L.A. Two by the Giants. So fine. We got Harrison, the thicker kicker, Mevis had multiple field goals and six of his last seven last

5:35year did not get a field goal opportunity last year. Dominic, sorry, last week in Australia, Dominic Zavada for the Giants did not get a field goal attempt last week either, but he was five for five in the preseason and 11 of 13 from 50 or more yards in college. Expect a long one. And I think we get a minimum of three. And I think we can hit this on three because we're going to get a 50 yarder tonight. So I'm just I'm giving you that one. Then I think I know you guys are going to disagree. I like the Rams tonight. I think the Rams win this game by two possessions. And if so, I love this Blake Corm over 10 and a half total carries prop at minus 114. It's all about game flow. I mean, he and Kyron Williams is not quite a 50 50 split, but I could see something like 60 40, maybe 55 45 Williams. Last week, Williams had 11 rushing attempts. Corm at 10. I could see, you know, Corm at 11 or more carries in seven of the team's final 11 regular season games. Last year, the Rams won by at least a touchdown in six of those seven games. I think they will again tonight. We're going to see a lot of second half Blake Corm over 10 and a half total

6:36carries minus 114. Yeah, I don't mind the Blake Corm pick. I don't mind the Kyron Williams pick. I think this game. And by the way, I don't mind the field goal prop either because I think a lot of these drives around. I'm kind of hoping a lot of these drives end in fuel goals, which I think is certainly reasonable, given the state of these teams right now. But we're going to get to that later, because I think that lends itself to what I'm going to pick as well. But A Corm, we're going to switch gears for a second here. We're going to switch gears from NFL just for a second to some MLB and then we're right back to NFL. Talk to me about James Wood and the twins today. Yeah, James Wood. I had to wear my gnats hat here and we only got a few games. So when I was looking at the top hits runs and RBI's options. I mean, James Wood stood out kind of above the rest. And you get a great price on him actually right around minus 110 minus 115. I think this is like a minus 140 prop truthfully going up against the opener river Ryan here for the Tigers. And it'll probably be Kider Monterey after Ryan, which I don't love. But I have to at least say guaranteed at bat minimum against Ryan, if not a couple of them here for wood near the top of the order.

7:44On the away team at this price, you know, there's really not much more to say about it. He projected well over to actually much closer to two and a half here on the hits runs RBI. So just a numbers play more than anything. He did have an over yesterday, but a couple of games back to back where he produced at the plate. So I think this is a solid enough spot and a great price for us here on James Wood over one and a half hits runs and RBI. And then secondly, I'm going twins and shout out to the chat. They I know it's a small slate. They pulled out both of my picks before I even mentioned them twins. Money line here is the second one. And they already had mentioned James Wood prop on the hit run RBI earlier, but twins money line. And you know what if you watched Zebby Matthews in his last start there against the Yankees. I certainly did. I mean, he looked great. I get that the Yankees offense can kind of do this sometimes against pictures where a couple of starts in a row. Matthews actually had struggled slightly giving up, you know, four or five runs. But then come back. And against the Yankees completely stifles them six very strong innings no runs. Now you have him going up here for twins that are, you know, continuing their West Coast road trip here. They just split with the angels. He's going up here against the Giants and blade tied well on the other side. But really the the you know the matchup I want to focus on is Debbie against his Giants lineup because I think he could really stifle them once again and have a good start here. You get a ballpark that generally does kind of help the pictures. And you have a Giants lineup here that is missing.

9:07Every single key cog that they possibly could be missing. I even have on the projected here that Jung who leaves projecting out tonight. I mean, this is as water down of a lineup as you can really get Bryce Eldridge now out as well. I mean guys that were the last ones hanging on are now also out of the lineup here. So I think the twins do enough tonight. And at this price again, I think it's a solid one to play here. I would have this like minus 130 or so. I think the twins should be the clear favorite, especially with Zebby on the mound. If you want to try to fade tied well, this is part of the reason I'm taking the twins. It's he's been just disgustingly bad against left handed batters. The twins have some good ones that should be still rolling out there. Brooks Lee three hits yesterday. I don't mind him on a hit run. RBI as well tonight, but I couldn't bring seven plays this show. So there you go. I'll throw the Brooks Lee one in at the end for you. All right, we got a couple of baseball plays. We have baseball questions in the chat that we're going to get to. There's an interesting fantasy question in the chat. Propy, I'm going to go to you first, and then I'm going to go to Meg on this. This is from Jen who we know and love and who we met at the meetup at wriggly just a couple of months ago. Jen says, okay.

10:12So then can we please talk about an emergency fantasy backup flex from tonight's game with someone widely available on waivers. It's that last part of the sentence, Propy that I think is kind of tough because I think conventional wisdom would say Terrence Ferguson. But he's probably not on waivers right now. Propy, do you have any advice? Is the answer Terrence Ferguson? And if he's taken, do you have anybody else to give? I take a look at Devin Singletary just considering his usage in the short area passing game. He's one much to the chagrin of cams gotta go backers, which Megan I are. He got a lot of the passing down work. So yeah, he's definitely has the trust of the coaching staff. He's a solid veteran player. He was completely inefficient, but he does lend himself well to coaching. So yeah, I think he could potentially catch three or four passes tonight. And I will say, Jen, hopefully you put Nikua in your flex spots. So the ability to put a running back in there instead of a receiver. I think cannot a month field is interesting. If you just had to take a shot, Xavier Smith, I mean, we're really taking deep shots here. Maybe Darnell Mooney Meg, anybody come to mind.

11:22Not really and famously, I'm a best ball girl. Don't do much redraft. So I'm not in this predicament. And yeah, I think those are all good shots. I mean, the Rams are so deep at Titan or are any of the Rams tight ends available. You mentioned Terrence Ferguson or any of the Rams because actually Ferguson did not get catch but the but excuse me, Parkinson and I'm blanking on the first. I was it was Parkinson and the other. Tyler. Tyler. Yeah, it was Parkinson and Higby that they got the targets are the two short catches last week. So are there any Rams tight ends available. That would be my my answer to that. And the single Terry's a good shout. But I really don't have much beyond that. Hey, Max Jen picked up Malachi fields in our fantasy league. I thought that was a great moves. I don't think I have anything to worry about. Just play Malachi field to be all good. Definitely. I mean, I don't know about all good, but the awesome. And Malachi fields could get a, you know, a couple of catches. I don't know about beyond that. All right.

We're back on the early edge. We've had a lot of cam Skataboo to talk about a lot of questions to get your questions in the chat. There's a lot of unknown with this game. So you know, sometimes when we don't know if a big player is playing, we have to kind of ride the fence a little bit, but certainly want to get your questions in the chat. So you're going to have a little bit of a problem. Why don't you kick us off? You've got to play on the side here, which is unusual for you and you've got to play as far as a prop is concerned. Go ahead. Indeed. See, yeah, I think the giants are the best team in the NFC East, especially after watching my Philadelphia Eagles yesterday, as well as the Cowboys and the commanders. I was super encouraged with the week one performance. I think the giant's heading into the season in our fantasy futures league that see Dave Richard and I are in together as well as RJ Light and lots of other sports line personalities.

14:43The giants over seven and a half wins was my tune in the play. So yeah, I'm very bullish on this giant steam and I was extremely encouraged week one with Jackson Dard. They were first in EPA per play. So the advanced metrics certainly back support this giant team defensively, not as much. But I think this giant's offense is going to be very good, certainly above average. I think there are top 10 offense, frankly, especially with the healthy Malik neighbors. Then I think that conversely the opposite is true with the Rams. They had a ton of preseason hype and attention deservedly so considering the roster, but they looked unprepared. They looked long in the tooth. I know some of that can be written off considering the wonky travel to Australia. But I think this Rams team has some major holes and leaks in it. The defensively, the 49ers were able to move the ball all over the place were able to run the ball very effectively. I think the giants are going to have similar success on this Rams defense. Sans Miles Garrett as well.

15:47So yeah, I look at this Rams team Matthew Stafford looked old. He's a guy that tries to or typically gets into a rhythm and he gets better as the season progresses, typically released at this advanced stage of his career. So yeah, he came out of the gate cold in my opinion and losing Pukkana Kua is a massive blow to this offense. So I jumped on this when this was seven and a half points roughly 24 hours ago. I think the giants win this game outright, frankly. I'm not willing to bet their money line just yet or I'd sprinkle a little bit on it, not a full unit play for me. But I think the giants here are definitely going to hang with this Rams team and be super competitive. So I'm a believer in this giants team and I think they hang with a Rams team that looks overrated to me. Then as far as the prop is concerned, I'm with Meg, Meg put this out first, but I'm back in camp scatter boo. I'm going over on his rushing and receiving line. I also am taking his rushing prop as well. I'm double dipping here. I would make this line his rushing line upwards. I'm going to make this a 60-1 or 62-and-a-half yards. I make the combo live in the low 70s. I was very encouraged by his performance. Again, the giants offense first in EPA per play in week one, ran it against the Cowboys, but this Rams defense does not look very scary to me.

17:03I'm choosing to take the combination line here partially because Meg has the rushing line, which I'm backing as well, but also because it does protect you a little bit from GameScript. Cam's got a boo wasn't targeted in the passing game in week one. That's always been a tremendous skill set. This is the ability to catch passes out of the backfield. So in a more competitive in game environment, I would hope the giants would utilize him in that way or if they're potentially trailing, which is certainly likely or possible, obviously being touched down underdogged in this game. So yeah, I think Cam's got a boo is being severely undervalued in the marketplace. I like all of his props, including his rushing line and his combo line here. Meg, you like his props as well and Gipper's picks is in the chat. He says, if you like the giants plus six and a half, then you should like scataboo over 51 and a half rushing yards. Other game plan will be same as last week on Dart over 31 and a half rushing yards as well. It looks like what are you on for tonight? Well, first of all, I couldn't agree more. I'm lockstep with everything that Propy said. I actually have sprinkled on the Giants money line as well.

18:10So I think he's going to be playing from sorry, EC. I know you're on the other side of that one, but I actually think he could be playing from a neutral or positive game script. And listen, I know we're doing this to make money, but we also do this for entertainment. And there's nothing more entertaining than Cam's scatabo. I mean, I say, see, you're going to love us. I call him Gen Z John Riggins all the time. He's a little crazy, but he's so fun to watch. He just oozes aura and entertainment. And so he's fun to root on. And so we are going to have fun rooting this one on, but I think we're getting home. When I saw the line, I literally had to make sure my contacts were in because I was like, this does not look like this is like way, way, way too low. That's Propy said. So I don't know if the bookmakers weren't watching last week, but it 18 attempts for 81 yards. Like Propy said, I think they're going to have the exact same game plan. Obviously no miles scared. And you know, Aaron Donald, he's going to be rotated in. And he's going to be on the snap count tonight. So again, I'm not worried really about the game script. I'm not worried about the defensive line. Cam's scatabo is the game plan for the giants is to run the ball, keep the Rams off and soft the field. And again, I think that it was especially with Pukin, Akua likely being out. I think they could be playing positive or neutral game script. I absolutely love this. I have laddered this up to 80 yards for some plus money.

19:27I know I always mention that in my sports line picks. I've already done that. I've basically sprinkled on everything possible cam scatabo. There it is. I love it. I've basically sprinkled on everything possible cam scatabo. So that's why I said happy cam scatabo data all with the angry run shirt. Let's go. Let's get this one home. I mean, here's the thing. If you can't allow yourself, even as a non-giants fan, let's say you root for the Eagles or the commanders like myself. If you can't allow yourself to root for cam scatabo and just isolate him, you're just not giving yourself the opportunity to enjoy football. It's just that simple. He's so fun to watch. You see you're not in your head. No. No. He went to a shoe. I'll never root for that guy. Ever. He's such a fun watch. Here's the thing. He see, I want to ask you a question, but I want to get to my pick first. So the question is going to be from Scott Edwards and it's thoughts on the Rams over their team total of 27 and a half. So we'll get to that in just a second. The reason I want to give out my pick first is I'm actually on a similar pick, at least from the market standpoint. I'm going with the Giants team total under 20 and a half. Now, this isn't fully a fade of the Giants necessarily. Although I will say when you play the Dallas Cowboys defense at home week one, probably going to be optimal conditions for you. And we saw that with Washington.

20:44Washington was not getting off the field. The Jaden Daniels was going to play all four of those quarters. It's just a bad defense in their second areas, even kind of worse than I thought it was going to be granted their some injuries there recently as well. But the bottom line is I think the Giants will be able to move the ball matriculate the ball slowly down field like they did against the Cowboys where they just ate up time a possession only gave the Cowboys two possessions in the second half. Here's the problem. The Rams are going to be able to do that to against this defensive line in this defense, even without Pukka, Nukuah. I think Karen Williams gets a lot of run with a pretty good success rate. I think the back up Lake Corn gets a lot of run with a pretty good success rate. And even without Nukuah, we're going to see some dinks and dunks from staff for all the cast of tight ends to some of the receivers to some of the backup receivers because Sean McBae just like Kyle Shannon. It doesn't really matter who the receivers are Matt Stafford is going to be able to find them behind a Sean McBae offense. So I just think we're going to see a lot of time of possession for both of these teams. And if any of these drives that do matriculate themselves down field, end up in either a turnover or a field goal like we were talking about with EC, that I don't think that the Giants are getting over 21 points. So I'm going to take the under 20 and a half. I kind of like the under in the game as well.

21:52But this is the way I choose to attack this one. I kind of lean to the to the Rams minus the six and a half because I feel like we're a bit in over reaction mode, but I can't get past the fact of what property said. It did look like the Rams were a little off. I know Sean McBae tried to out jet lag jet lag and it didn't work. We all knew that wasn't going to work. But even still without miles, Garrett, without Pukin, Nukuah, with with just all the parts don't seem to be right right now. So I don't want to take the minus six and a half, but I lean that direction. Give me the team total under 20 and up. Prop, I'll let you react. But EC, I want to get you to the team total over 27 and a half for the Rams. Yeah, I originally had the game 31 20 LA. So I stuck with that pick, but without Pukin, Nukuah, assuming he doesn't play, I would not play that that team total over. I still think the Rams win. I think the Rams win by a touchdown. I think we're I and I'm an overreactor in general. I know that. See, I like that. That's that's how I am clearly on our Friday, Prop shows I overreact to I'm not overreacting the Rams. I there still I think the best team in the NFL when right, when healthy.

22:53And I think they get back on track tonight, so we'll see. Yeah, I guess. Yeah, they're not right and they're not healthy. The thing you say, you know, I think. Yeah, Stafford was so bad last week, Prop, I just think he can't be any worse. Well, here's the thing. Here's the thing. When you play San Francisco, it's a good chance you're going to be made to look bad. That's what Kyle Shanahan does. I mean, it's just it's just one of those things. When you played the Dallas Cowboys, there's a good chance your offense is going to look really good. I mean, that's just that's just how it is. Now that doesn't mean the Giants offense isn't good. It's just means we don't exactly know what they're going to look like against a normal defense or at least the top 10 defense. Prop, you go ahead. It's also fair to point out that Stafford's playing at an advanced stage. Yes, he's been good in the twilight of his career. But things happen quickly when it comes to falling off in the NFL. This is the guy that manages his reps throughout the off season as well as training camp in the preseason. So, you know, he's not out there playing a ton or getting a ton of snaps. So some of these snaps are kind of the equivalent for other players, you know, or playing more, being exposed more to the rigors of, you know, play early on in the preseason.

24:05So I think some of that's timing, some of that's chemistry. But if you look at Stafford splits without Naku, especially recently, they have not been very pretty. Devanti Adams did not look very good, but not heavily utilized. I do think the Rams here can pivot against this Giants defense. So I do think his average and run the football effectively. So I do like the under the full game under here. I do think the Rams will look to get Blake Corrin going as well as, yeah, obviously they're running Kairan Williams as well. So I do think they're going to run the football effectively. And I think the Giants, I think Jackson, dark played tremendous football week one first in EPA per play. Meanwhile, Matthew Stafford was the only starting quarterback from an EPA standpoint. Besides Cooper Rush, he was the 29th worst quarterback in the NFL week one again. Some of that you can chalk up to the wonky travel stuff. But I think there's serious problems with this Rams team. I think this Giants team, when he has a lot of momentum going for them.

25:06E.C. Matthew Stafford's passing over under his 238 and a half, prop E.C.A. Meg, which way would you guys lean on that? I mean, from what we're saying without Puka, maybe under the play. It would be completions for me. The only reason I didn't do that is because I do think they're going to lean into the run a ton. But if they're going to have the ball as long as I think they're going to, then I think it's a lot of dink and dunk. So I would actually be going over completions under attempts, perhaps, in over completions, which I know is not necessarily correlated. But those would be kind of the two looks I'd be looking at. But for me, I wouldn't touch the yards. Meg and then Propi. I have a lean to the under without Puka. So I definitely like the under. I haven't bet it or made an official player anything, but I do like the under. Propi. Yeah, I would agree with Meg. I think Stafford really looked his age last week. And again, without Puka, the splits have not been good for Stafford. So I think this giant's team is also being undervalued. I think they're averaged to above average defensively. Certainly very good offensively is what I believe. So yeah, I'd lean under for Stafford here.

26:14We've got first touchdowns to get to. And then of course we've got some more questions to answer regarding Monday night football, but A-mags, some baseball questions in the chat. Official King says Tigers money line. There's also a question from Ramo about Josh Bell. One and a half hits runs RBI's. Yes, I actually don't mind the Tigers money. I think it's probably priced about right as them being the favorite here. But when you look at River Ryan coming up from AAA being on the mound, you might start to think, you know, why are they such a large favor? But he's probably only going to go a couple of innings and you're going to get Kair Montereo for a bulk of the work here for the Tigers who has been really solid this year. So I think the Tigers are the rightful side there. And then what was the other one who was a hit run RBI? Josh Bell, one and a half hits runs RBI's. And also if you have any home run hitters, you like. Yeah, so Josh Bell and the hit run RBI, I mentioned the lefties there on the twins against Blade Tidewell. I think that is a good look. The price there on Bell is probably about right. Maybe a little bit worse than it should be, but I have no problem taking. I think he does go over one and a half tonight.

27:18And then yeah, the home run. So I mentioned it here in the chat. Look, only three games. Each of them when you look at not only weather and ballpark projects to be picture friendly here tonight. I just am not going to go too deep in the home runs. Maybe take a shot on James Wood or a lefty there for the twins like Josh Bell or a Brooks Lee, somebody like that Cody Clemens maybe, but just some small shots. Nothing crazy. A couple of questions I think are really important to get to before we get to first touchdowns. I'm going to start. First of all, Luffy Mingo says first half under 23 and half. I almost came to the show with that. So I do like the first half under 23 and a plus money. I actually don't mind the first quarter under nine and a half. Again, I haven't decided if I'm actually betting those, but those are my leans. But Meg, I'm going to start with you and I say it likely he's going to be a popular name among others, Malik neighbors obviously and of course, Devonte Adams. And probably I'm going to go to you next on this likely numbers 43 and a half. I think it's high, but I still think I like it. What are your thoughts?

28:18I do like it. Yeah, I think you know, the nice thing about the giants is I know they do have those like tertiary receivers, but I do think the passing game is going to run through likely and neighbors. Obviously a second game back for neighbors. I know people mentioned that in the chat as well. I think we'll be even better. I was impressed with his first outing and then likely just looks like outside of outside of neighbors, the guy that Dart looks for. So I, as you said, it may seem high, but I like I do like the over here. Propi, I like likely more than I like neighbors, mostly because of the matchup. And we do have to respect the Rams have some good corners on the outside now. What are your thoughts on likely over 43 and a half or neighbors five and a half or I mean his line is like 64 and a half kind of high. What are your thoughts? I was extremely encouraged by likely usage. They really built the game plan around him, the passing attack in week one. So very impressed with Isaiah likely to find out a lot of people in fantasy communities were down on a lot of people were calling him the worst pick and fantasy leagues.

29:19Yeah, not the case after week one. I was very impressed with his utilization. He definitely performed very well on his touches. I believe his fantasy points over expectation or something like absurd, like the biggest margin of any pass catcher in week one. But yeah, he certainly cashed in on his opportunities looked really good. He's shown flashes. So yeah, the coaching staff is comfortable with him as well, being a carryover from Baltimore for our ball. So I do like likely that being said, I thought, my neighbors looked really good and we want considering he's not operating at 100% I think this guy is certainly one of the most talented pass catchers in the NFL look to be even though he wasn't playing a full time role. Yeah, I think his snaps are going to kick up here. I think he's such an incredible talent at wide receiver real game breaker. So I would certainly not fade neighbors in this batch up, but I do like likely as well. E.C., I give you the option of choosing one of these two over neighbors 60 let's call it 63 and a half and over likely 43 and a half.

30:26I probably going likely here. I know the Rams were pretty good against tight ends last year, but the Rams upgraded their corner backs. You know got Mac Duffy from Kansas City on one side. So I think neighbors. I mean, I like him as the season goes along still kind of getting healthy, but likely in the middle of the field could be an asset. I agree with what propian Meg have said there. So I would play that lock likely lineup to 50 and take a shot there. Probably go ahead. Also love the fact they have a very condensed target distribution. Both Darnell Mooney and Malik. I feel we're not effective in week one. And I don't think they're going to whistle out of targets on them here. We too. So I think likely neighbors frankly can both get home as they're going to be clear. Gabriel in the chat says I miss buckets. Don't worry buckets will be on the show very soon. Let's get to some first touchdown scores here. See if we agree with that. And actually, A Mags. I think I'm going to start with you. You're getting in the mix here. And by the way, Ben is going to get in the mix. I don't know if we're going to just show it. Ben or if we're just going to talk it through, but A Mags who's your first touchdown score.

31:28My guy is likely to score first actually. Literally likely and his name is likely. But hey, two, you know, two touchdowns last week. I obviously don't know much about the defense, what not of the Rams. But I did read this morning as I was looking this up. I guess they struggle in the middle of the field. So I don't mind that with IZ. I'm likely. And I'll come back after you guys talk about yours. I have one more thing for this game real quick. That number on likely is really good. I can't deny that. All right, let's go to. Well, I'll just get my pick out of the way. I kind of I'm field if Nuku is not going to play. I think Muffield is going to find himself on the field quite a bit. I would agree with anybody who likes the tight ends as far as the Rams are concerned. But I think Muffield at 28 to one is a pretty good look. I like the coach speak on. Could not a month. Field from Sean McVeigh in the preseason. So I do think if he gets a chance, they are going to look his way. EC you like a guy I like as well. Yeah, see, I mean, Rams invested a second round picking Terrence Ferguson last year. And he got as many yards as the five of us on this cast last week. So probably not a good sign there. But they got a you use this guy, especially Puka doesn't play.

32:40Look out for Terrence Ferguson to get that first touchdown and maybe any time as well at a nice price. We've got Malik neighbors for prop stars. Indeed, yeah, I rate Malik neighbors is one of the most talented wide receivers in the NFL. I probably look great in week one considering the layoff considering he wasn't sure he was going to play. I think his apps are ramped up here a bit. I think he's closer to an every down player here. Again, I think Malik neighbors will make a massive impact tonight. And finally, we close out our first touchdown scores with what was it? Gen Z John Riggins love it. Gen Z Gen Z John Riggins listen, it's a brand play for me. I usually do like to go with a longer number to sprinkle on, but I had to stick with the brand play. It's it's cam scat of O day. So it's cam scat of O for me. But the touchdown already and I sprinkled on two touchdowns and first touchdown. It's again, it's just fun to root on guys. It's it is fun to root on as our first touchdowns in general. It's also fun to hear a pick from Ben Whitenstein Ben jump onto the show because a lot of people were asking, hey, how about a Jackson Dart anytime touchdown or over 32 and a half rushing yards? Well, you've got the anytime touchdown taking care of first. Yeah, I'm buying in on the Darta Sons here. I think this is as high as we're going to see Jackson Dart being talked about.

33:58He's probably feeling himself very well. 11 rushes in his last game. He's done everything so far. Three touchdowns and all interceptions over 200 yards passing hasn't had a rushing touchdown yet. Why not the first touchdown tonight? I think that's totally fair. Probably go ahead. Jackson Dart. I just want to remind everyone first an EPA per play in week one. This guy was absolutely sensational. Obviously, it's a one week sample against the mediocre defense, but I think Jackson Dart is for real. I think that performance is a sign of things to come and I think he's set for a very big season. I can't you I can't let you say that without finishing the sentence with against the Cowboys. That's the thing. I listen. Dart was way better than I thought he was going to be too. So I mean, I hear you. But I mean, I like. This is going to be actually this is going to be a really good referendum. We talked about it last week. How some of these quarterbacks who were really good in week one. There was going to be kind of maybe a check on what's going to happen in week two. A Mags go and then property. So real quick. I don't know if you saw this. See I put this in the MLB chat tweeted it out last night. We did. I called it a nerfie in the NFL. Right. So it was just the first drive each teams running back.

35:07Five plus rushing yards. That's three to one on draft Kings tonight for scat five plus on the first drive and Kyron Williams five plus on the first drive. Just a simple handoff goes for five yards or so and then we cash three to one. I like that one. I mean, if if either team gets a first down, you're really good shaping. You might not even need that property. Go ahead. Giant's offensive line also played really well. So I think things are just shaping up well again. Things can change quickly. Players can get injured quickly, but the pivotal players for the giants are healthy. Align played really well in week one. I would also say, yeah, getting neighbors back close to 100% that they likely having cam scat a boo in the backfield. I just think things are going well. The arrow certainly pointed up for the giants offense right now. Totally agree. And I like what you said about the NFC East. There's a lot of divisions that are up for grabs that I didn't think we're going to be up for grabs. I mean, we all kind of saw Minnesota may be coming. I think that one's an interesting one. We'll see how it plays out and obviously Caleb Williams injury factors in there. The NFC South. Maybe I was wrong about the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and probably I know you were big on the New Orleans Saints or at least I simply I recall you being big on the New Orleans Saints. Maybe I'm wrong. Okay, you're nodding your head. Yes.

36:20So there's a lot of these divisions that are truly up the bangles look as good as we thought they were going to look. I was certainly big on them as well. So granted it's only through two weeks. We'll see what happens. But we got a whole season to enjoy that the twists and the turns. E.C. Go ahead. One last thing I want to point out everybody's on the a lot of people are on the Giants. See you and I are in the Rams tonight. I want to point at last last year. Pukin. Pukin. Akua missed one game. It was in London against Jacksonville team that was good enough to make the playoffs. Final score Rams 35 Jaguar of seven Matthews. Stafford had five touchdown passes even without Pukin. Akua. I think we see a bounce back tonight. I really I mean I need to go against prop. I can't imagine. Go ahead. London London. Jacksonville used to playing there. They were there. Come on. Go ahead. Yeah. The other side. Come on. He's still good. He's good. Trevor Lawrence is very good. I wasn't going to say anything. I think the jacks are going to win the division. I think jacks look like a legit Super Bowl contender over over Houston. I know Houston's I went to but still I think you said I do. I think Jacksonville looks really good. I agree. Rams are old and watched.

37:25Baby J. Shout out baby J. Shout out baby J. She's as well. He says he went seven to know yesterday. We got to see. We got to start a Twitter profile or something so we can see these picks. Seven to know is very impressive. I will say the big cheesy who is also very impressive in a key part of this family in this chat. He likes the Rams minus six and a half with two hammers. I don't know. Do two hammers mean two units to to big cheesy. I'm not 100% sure. Go ahead. Propy does anyone want to show them? Does anyone want to show down here with me tonight on the opposite side? We take the Rams. I'll take the Giants. Yeah, I'll take it. All right. There we go. Let's hear it. It's going to be a new down. That was fantastic. He's like, yeah, I'll take it. I was thinking about it. See it. And I was like, are you going to do it? Am I going to do it? Yeah, I'll lay the six and a half. Let's go. All right. Lazy Joe, we do have to get out of here. Although I'd like to go another 20 minutes, but we're going to let you out of here. Thank you for being a part of this show every single day. We really appreciate everybody.

38:28And by the way, before we get to the recap screen today on CBS Sports Network at 12 o'clock, I'll be hosting a show. We're going to talk more NFL with a different cast of characters. I believe. Propy, you're not going to be on that 12 o'clock show. Are you okay? Okay. Yeah. I'm really spirit. Okay. Fair enough. And we've got college football with Emory and Tom Cassali where they get out early plays, FCS plays, group of six plays. Those guys are so good with some of the non-profile teams that you're not going to want to miss that. Hopefully that'll be put on this sports line YouTube channel as well. All right. Let's get to the recap screen and we'll get everybody out of here. I've got the New York Giants team total under 20 and a half points minus 120. We go to baseball. James Wood over 1 and a half hits runs RBI's minus 110. And the twins money line minus 115. Of course, those are from AMAX Eric Cohen Blake, Corm over 10 and a half Russia temps at minus 114 and over 128 and a half combined field goal yards minus 115's cams. And we've got to be over 49 and a half rushing hours minus 114 for Meg Shalb and cams. Got to be over 64 and a half rushing and receiving from prop stars at minus 115 Giants plus six and a half minus 114. That one also from prop stars. And we've got one sports line pick.

39:30It's Isaiah likely over 4 and a half receptions minus 119 from Bob Karnarski. Ladies and gentlemen, what a show. We've got first touchdown scores as well. I don't know. Maybe we'll flash those one more time. Ben before we get out of here first touchdowns. Mumfield Ferguson, neighbors, Skatebo, likely and dark in the YouTube comments. Put your favorite or maybe top two first touchdown scores because I don't think anybody bets all six of these. You hear our opinions. You decide to bet a few maybe a couple maybe one in the YouTube comments, put who your favorite first touchdown score is. Maybe it's none of those people. Let us know who you got. All right, we got to get out of here. Thank you, propie Meg EC a mags and Ben on the ones and twos and three in force. Let's do it again tomorrow at 10 o'clock until then on the counselor of cash. We rest our case.
