00:03 - Who are you looking for this weekend
00:04 in NFL action to hit pay dirt?
00:07 - I gotta go with my fellow Boston College alum,
00:09 Zay Flowers, plus 210 to score an any time touchdown.
00:13 I think Donnie, he's clearly made himself
00:17 the most attractive receiver for Lamar.
00:20 Obviously Andrews is there as a pass catcher as well.
00:23 The run game, the running backs,
00:25 those are not pass catchers at all.
00:27 And I think I expect positive regression
00:30 from the Ravens in the red zone.
00:31 I think Zay Flowers can be a key target
00:33 in what I expect to be a high scoring game.
00:36 - I like where you're going with this one too,
00:37 because I do think there's a chance for points,
00:39 even though the odds makers are basically telling us,
00:41 hey, see this opening line?
00:42 Yeah, let's keep on dropping this line down
00:45 lower and lower and lower.
00:46 Opened up at 45 at the FanDuel Sportsbook,
00:48 and we see a 42 and a half that's out there today.
00:50 Something has to do with that,
00:52 obviously with weather conditions.
00:53 If we expect a much more windy day down there in Baltimore,
00:56 that could have an adverse effect.
00:57 But also, I wanna ask you this question too about that, Mike.
01:00 Are we expecting regression back on the Detroit defense,
01:02 who quite frankly, last year was an absolute sieve.
01:05 That was the way you attacked Detroit.
01:06 High flying offense,
01:08 pass through there that can't stop anybody.
01:09 And even though they're sustaining injuries
01:11 in that back seven,
01:12 look, somebody sooner or later
01:14 is gonna have to get after there and drop,
01:15 you know, 27, 28 points on the Detroit Lions defense.
01:18 It's just what's supposed to happen.
01:21 - Yeah, I agree.
01:22 I don't think it's gonna be a clean sheet for them
01:24 the whole year.
01:25 We lost Brian Branch there for a few weeks,
01:28 doing a good job getting after the quarterback,
01:30 but they have played some weaker offensive lines.
01:32 They got after the Bucs last week.
01:35 Ravens, Ravens offensive line, like I said earlier,
01:39 still some big names on there,
01:40 but they don't necessarily play
01:41 like the best offensive line in the league.
01:43 If you watched that game last week in London,
01:46 the Titans were getting after Lamar.
01:48 He just was able to scramble out of a lot of trouble.
01:50 So yeah, maybe a little bit of regression.
01:54 The wind is obviously a key factor here.
01:58 And if it's going to be 25 mile an hour winds,
02:00 throw out everything I'm saying about this game.
02:03 I just think that both of these offenses
02:05 have the opportunity to put up points on Sunday.
02:08 And that's why I'm rolling with Seah,
02:10 and I got another one related to this game
02:11 in a few more picks.
02:13 - And also it is windier conditions,
02:15 advantage the Baltimore Ravens with their ground game.
02:17 Obviously a much more mobile quarterback on the Ravens side,
02:19 some healthy running backs compared to,
02:21 are we getting Montgomery?
02:22 Are we getting Jumier Gibbs back
02:23 for the Detroit Lions?
02:24 Can't wait for that football game.
02:25 My anytime touchdown score in this weekend's matchups
02:29 are the Chargers and the Kansas City Chiefs.
02:31 I'm going to Austin Echler this one,
02:33 solid price here at a minus 120.
02:35 If we're looking at points and close to 50 points
02:37 anticipated in this game,
02:39 if you are going to have a legitimate chance
02:41 to unseat the Kansas City Chiefs at Arrowhead,
02:43 he's going to have to play a big part of that,
02:46 which includes catching short passes out of the backfield
02:48 in the Red Zord and or being their goal line carrier.
02:52 I'm going Austin Echler here.
02:53 Anytime touchdown scoring market here
02:55 as my touchdown scorer of the week.
