00:00week one begins thursday night in kansas city ravens and the chiefs rematch of the afc title
00:07game from a year ago of course scotty we are going to have some new faces a few of them on each side
00:13but none bigger i guess you could say than for the ravens at running back derrick henry in the
00:19backfield now behind lamar jackson he is very excited to start the season thursday night in kc
00:26under the lights i mean at the end of the day it's just football i've been playing since i was
00:29five years old but the atmosphere and um you know it being the first game at night you know
00:35they're coming off a super bowl they're being at home at arrowhead which you know the environment
00:39is going to be loud it's going to be um it's going to be hostile but that's what you want
00:42i mean especially on opening night you know everybody watching the first game of the year
00:46to kick off the 2024 season so i'm excited um it's going to be fun so i'm looking forward to it
00:52listen mike this guy's finally on a real team and you can quote me on that he did it all himself
00:59in nashville i've never once thought he had anybody in front of him and he was super special
01:05uh on his own creating havoc for the nfl no one could stop him imagine what this guy's going to
01:12be like on a winner he's on he's on like a team that actually has a line and that has a great
01:18quarterback and now has a great uh powerful forceful back i mean this guy literally i think
01:26kansas city's got their hands full thursday night just having this guy hammer into the line at him
01:31uh you know they play everyone and they beat everyone they never lose and they and when have
01:35you seen him play anyone like this guy coming at him in their opener this guy having lamar jackson
01:42and king henry coming at you at the same time that's a problem do you remember the uh what was
01:48it christmas watching the ravens what they did to the niners they did that without this guy
01:52imagine what they're gonna do with it yeah uh look i don't disagree i i think this is going
01:58to be a good one it's still sitting at a flat three uh with a 46 and a half and look there
02:03used to be this thing about uh this opening thursday night game right uh the team that won
02:07the super bowl always wins etc i watched the lions beat the chiefs last year right
02:13in arrowhead uh we watched the lions beat the chiefs in the opening thursday night game so it's
02:18not unheard of and i think it's very possible scotty for the ravens i do lean ravens a little
02:23bit here as much as we don't like them uh on coast to coast i do ream ravens a little bit on thursday
02:28listen i hate them uh they're my you know problem in the nfl i will not deny uh how much i dislike
02:38them but uh that has neither here nor there when it comes to if they're not playing the steelers
02:44i have to deal with the realities of who they're playing and i want them to win i hate them but i
02:49want them to beat the chiefs because i hate them more even though the ravens are in the north in
02:53my steelers division i'm fine with that the steelers in my opinion aren't going anywhere
02:58like they're not winning that division i don't believe that with those two hack quarterbacks
03:02and you can quote me on that too uh there's a reason why the steelers got wilson and fields
03:08i mean honestly they didn't just get them because they're like oh we're better than
03:11everybody we're gonna go get whoever we want no they got that washed up russell wilson
03:15and they got a guy that throws more picks than anybody in the nfl who's got fleet of foot so
03:21great fields can run but what did he do in chicago besides fail and lose and throw picks i mean he's
03:27sucked so i'm not excited about their offense at all zero nada uh and let me throw this at you
03:36you know how much i love giving you numbers uh because this will be talked about a lot the next
03:39two days lamar jackson as a regular season underdog 12 oh and one against the spread
03:4712 oh and one against the spread as a regular i almost just fell out of my seat
03:52and he's and he's nine four straight up nine and four straight up he's won nine of those games
03:59outright uh as well as an underdog so bring it over give me give me the ravens right there we
04:08will come back uh and the other game is in brazil friday night to kick off the season where no one's
04:15allowed to leave their hotels but let's go have a game in brazil uh the eagles and the packers
04:20uh i'll give you a little bit on that the numbers yeah i don't want to go anywhere to a uh game
04:26where my odds are higher to be murdered than they are to be drunk yeah i don't really uh i don't
04:34get it either that's that global nfl but can we pick a place that there isn't you know i mean just
04:41absolute bloodshed every time you turn a corner i mean honestly like people think brazil's lovely
04:47brazil is not lovely it's like look there's a clip that's making the rounds right now
04:52on on social media it's darius slay of course eagles cornerback uh whether it's his podcast
04:58or it's on somebody else's podcast i got no idea but he was basically saying like we have now we've
05:03been told multiple times and they're about to head down there clearly do not leave the hotel stay in
05:09the hotel until it's time to go to the game and then he said i told my family don't even come
05:15what's the point i can't see don't even come don't i don't want you there i'm not gonna see
05:19you i don't want to get hurt like what are we doing here jacobs josh jacobs of the packers
05:24did the same thing a couple months ago that the league had told the players and started briefing
05:29them like listen this is the deal here you can't can't wear this can't go here can't do that
05:34why are we having a game there then yeah what what what makes no sense it's just nonsense let
05:40me tell you something these people like soccer they don't care about american football i don't
05:44want to hear it uh growing the game scotty we have to grow the game globally uh is what we're
05:50doing uh there i mean england was enough and germany wherever they go in europe they have to
05:54start heading uh so antarctica's next scotty we're going to play a freezer bowl uh in our antarctica
06:00in a couple years uh that'll be big crowds lots of uh penguins and sea lions are going to watch
06:05the game oh that'll be the nfl's next trick it'll look cool on tv though uh so we're going to make
06:10sure that we do that delicious jalen hurts that's the eagles uh get ready to start a new year
06:18another offensive system now of course with kellen moore uh running the show and nick sirianni pretty
06:24much out of the way of this guy he's like on heroin this is a really good team it's a really
06:28good team they got a lot of really good players a really good quarterback maybe running back and
06:33receiver core and the d-line is really good and attacking the ball and creating problems up front
06:41and we just um you know it comes down to preparation you guys have heard me say it enough
06:48you know how we uh how we prepare and how we have prepared you know and um have an opportunity
06:53to just display that and compete against a really good team so he went to the super bowl right and
06:59lost and then uh so is he overrated because he went to a super bowl people think he's this great
07:06quarterback like last year he was so awful like honestly at what point do people just say he's
07:11overrated he which guy is he is he the guy that went and lost or is he the guy last year that
07:17couldn't get out of his own way which one is he i think is he trevor lawrence is that who he is
07:22yeah overpaid break the tie this year i think we break the tie this year a lot of people
07:28would like to tell you that he was hurt all year last year i think that that's what a lot of people
07:32want to tell you that he wasn't himself injured the offense wasn't good it was all we'll see i
07:40guess because i mean you can't have that excuse two years in a row so yeah they gotta be you guys
07:44you said you got to get back to two years ago uh when you went to the super bowl you had this
07:47dominating offense i know one thing that line's gonna be a little different right scotty you know
07:52a couple guys are a little older kelsey's gone that offensive line which is such a strength of
07:56theirs uh is going to be a little different uh we shall see uh for them as they get ready to go
08:02have the best receiving core in the nfl and let's see if he can get on the ball
08:08let's see uh i don't believe that either by the way that they have the best receiving core in the
08:12nfl i don't think that's the case but we shall see if they can get i'll tell you barclay's going to
08:17make them better though barclay's good when he plays minus two and a half for the eagles 48 and
08:23a half friday night in brazil uh for this uh second game of the nfl season listen i think
08:30philly needs it more believe it or not based on their atrocious end of uh last season the second
08:37half of last season was atrocious i think they need it more but i still think green bay is better
08:43than them i like green bay in this game and uh it is what it is i mean i can see the eagles winning
08:49i don't think it's the end of the world if if they win like what am i going to do about it there's
08:53nothing you can do about it every game two and a half three three and a hook every game like one
08:57and a half two two and two and a half three three three you have no idea what's going to happen i
09:02know this you have no idea what's going to happen although the key will be will they get out of
09:07brazil without anybody dead well i think yeah the thing for me with the packers is obviously now
09:16uh people know about them right made the playoffs last year beat dallas they should have beat san
09:22francisco they melted in the second half love second year all those defensive coordinators
09:27scotty what have they been doing for the last eight months sitting around watching all the
09:30jordan love tape uh trying to figure out how to stop them this year so that's the thing for me uh
09:36love and stroud right on houston those are the two guys these guys all spent their entire off
09:40seasons trying to figure out how to stop those two guys who have huge ears here's the rest of the
09:44slate for this weekend uh with the nfl of course uh we do we told you about thursday and friday
09:50night we're going to talk about all these games all week long i want to give you the numbers at
09:53the beginning of the week as i always like to do uh here we go patriots are in cincinnati
09:58where they will face the bengals to start the season off minus nine and a half now for cincinnati
10:04the bills open with arizona at home that's at six and a half right now the giants and the vikings
10:11giants getting a point and a half at home scotty against sam donald and the caleb williams era
10:16starts the bears are three and a half point favorites against tennessee well they better
10:23uh win and cover uh with the amount of hype and bullshack we've been listening to and watching
10:29on their stupid hard knock shows and all the attention they've grabbed and all the awards
10:35they're gonna win i've heard rookie of the year coach of the year super bowl that's all i've heard
10:40about the chicago bears if they go out and lay an egg at soldier field in the opener that'll be
10:46all you need to know about this season for the bears they have to win and cover not just win
10:51they have to cover for all of the betters uh i think the giants can win their opener at home
10:57because they suck that bad and i am not buying the minnesota vikings to sam donald i'm buying
11:02the suck giants to win their opener and get everybody all teased up and drunk the bills
11:08will win in uh buffalo shuffle off to like you read about count on it and the bangles have to
11:14win even though uh i'm hearing from my sources deep within the pentagon that joe burrow will
11:20only be throwing to tee higgins all day long because they have no other talent that is the
11:26word i is he gonna play i heard that as well i heard that too uh but here's the good thing for
11:32them this week they're playing what is absolutely going to be the worst team in the nfl yes uh the
11:37patriots will be no doubt about it the worst team uh in the national football league and man what a
11:44shame that is uh that that is how the mighty have fallen uh how will i ever make it through the
11:50fallen winner uh this year with the the patriots sucking i mean honestly like what will i do with
11:56myself i don't know i'm not sure i'm gonna love every second of it the steelers will open their
12:02season in atlanta against the falcons they're getting three and a half points jacksonville
12:08is in miami against the dolphins dolphins actually i just saw that scotty moved to three and a half
12:14up to this second houston is in indy that is at two and a half and i'll give you this tip now
12:21the joey prawns uh week one special the carolina panthers into new orleans against the saints your
12:29boy joey prawns is backing dave canalis uh and the panthers to win outright on bourbon street
12:36yeah i would rather back uh canoli than canalis uh and i'll take stroud and the texans i'll take
12:45tua your boy tua and company uh at hard rock i'm gonna take the stellars on the road in atlanta
12:53because the falcons will never live down the super bowl i don't care who their coach or
12:58quarterback is and yeah i i that panther saints game he can uh you know i love joey prawns like
13:06no other but uh i i wouldn't watch that game if you paid me honestly like the panthers and saints
13:11i'd rather be pregnant he's been talking about that one for months uh he's had that
13:17worse than that game i mean we're talking about that i'd rather pick my teeth uh before i give
13:23you the next set of games uh tampa is going to be home for washington coming up on sunday as well
13:29but uh todd bowl scott i mean it's only been a couple years since the washington football team
13:34now known as the commanders but won't always be known as the commanders changed their name
13:38uh todd bowl still has not gotten the memo though on his desk i think if you find yourself just
13:43facing the rookie quarterback the other 10 guys gonna kill you so we're facing the redskins we're
13:48not facing jayden daniels they got 10 other guys that we got to worry about as well so we don't
13:53look at it as facing the rookie quarterback we're trying to beat the redskins listen two bucks in
13:59the jar for todd once again i will go back to the well they should have never changed their name
14:06ever no matter who it offended like honestly like did florida state change their name
14:13that the seminoles did uh did the atlanta braves change their name like honestly i think that
14:18washington redskins should be the washington redskins they should have always been the
14:21washington redskins you know what they haven't won since they were very true uh here is the
14:28late slate the four o'clock east games uh on four o'clock 425 east games uh coming up on sunday
14:35vegas is in la to start the harbaugh era for the chargers that is at a three right now denver into
14:41seattle against the seahawks cowboys and browns brown scotty minus two and a half uh favorites
14:49over the cowboys and that washington game against tampa also at 425 the bucks are three and a half
14:55points against jayden daniels and the commanders look i think uh baker madefield and that bucks
15:01team is uh better than anybody gives him credit for it he made the playoffs and uh they were a
15:06interception away from beating the lions i mean nobody wants to talk about how close they were
15:10to beating the lions uh may feel through that pick and that was all she wrote i like dallas
15:15in uh cleveland and i think cleveland and schwartz best defense uh coordinator at least in the league
15:21as far as i'm concerned that guy was meant to be a dc uh i'm gonna go seattle at home i think
15:26they're sneaky good i like their new coach uh and their defense and gino and their receivers
15:32uh they are you know untalked about like nobody's saying a word about them and like they suck or
15:38something and they stink and have no team no chance i think that's insanity i think denver's the one
15:44that sucks and i think jim harbaugh won his first game in lipstick city yeah i'm with you on the
15:50cowboys i'm gonna uh bet against the sean watson until he gives me a reason not to scotty because
15:55he sucks uh so i'm just gonna bet against him uh until he gives me a reason not to here's your
16:00prime time game sunday night rams are in detroit rematch that playoff game from last year minus
16:06three and a half for the lions and monday night game is of course the jets and the 49ers in san
16:11francisco i did see that move to four and a half scotty since the williams news this afternoon and
16:16the mcaffery news well you know i think that the niners will win at home at stonewashed jeans and
16:25my guess is the lions uh will win but look i think the rams are gonna be way better than anybody
16:34thinks because they got a great quarterback they got great receivers if they're healthy i think
16:39they give the niners a run for their money in the west and i think the lions will be uh the team that
16:45everyone has bet on to win the super bowl and they'll be the the new falcons the team that
16:50choked will never live it down uh teams that choke never live it down i you know i don't care what you
16:57say it happens every time the team that chokes and they had it all it was right in their fingertips
17:02and then they oh they're gonna go right back to the super bowl no they're not
17:07and everyone's got them winning like 14 games and they're gonna win oh
17:11oh the lions are the greatest that's all i hear about the lions they'll probably win
17:19their first game but i like the real uh i think they're gonna be better than people think
