00:00The updated outlooks at the end of week seven in a doubleheader on Monday night football
00:06Of course, we start with the team at the top and dubsy
00:09That's the Baltimore Ravens now an updated win total of twelve and a half
00:13The Ravens have won five consecutive games after starting in a winless
00:18Oh and to hole and frankly
00:20I'm not sure where that next loss on the resume is going to come based on how well this Ravens team is
00:28Performing and that really does I guess is the conversation for this Baltimore team the Ravens right now
00:35Not just looking like the frontrunners to win the AFC North
00:38They were a minus 250 favorite entering the end of week seven
00:43Not just a team we expect to contend with Kansas City atop the AFC
00:47But maybe in legitimately they should be booked in front of Casey
00:53Because of all the Chiefs
00:54Offensive woes and the injuries on that side of the football
00:58Despite the of course perfect six and Oh start in the upper hand advantage that Casey has over Baltimore doves
01:05I think there's going to be a lot of chatter this week at the end of week seven that it's not an arrowhead
01:10It's in the Charm City. The Ravens are the best team in the NFL
01:14Absolutely, and if we were to come up with a mock line and say okay week a Ravens are at home taking on the champs
01:20Kansas City Chiefs you'd have to book the Ravens as you know, one two-point favorites. They've been fantastic
01:26They certainly have more
01:27Offensive weapons that they can lean on this one two punch that we continue to speak of Lamar Jackson King Henry
01:33It really is looking unstoppable
01:35So that wind tunnel now sitting at twelve and a half there you'd have to be looking north of that number
01:40I really just don't see a world in which they start to slow down and take a look at the AFC a couple of teams
01:45Have really underwhelmed, you know, the Dolphins haven't stood up the Jets and Aaron Rodgers. That's been an absolute, you know
01:52Dismal showing from what we have seen. I guess you could say that the Buffalo Bills
01:55There's certainly gonna be that third choice there
01:58But in terms of amongst the conference players Kansas City Chiefs, they really haven't put a foot wrong
02:03But if you're looking for style points that wow factor that we usually talk about in the college football, Benny
02:08It's the Ravens who continue to put up these dominant showings
02:12And dubs we have seen a large change in those Super Bowl 59 odds Kansas City the favorite
02:18That's where it's remained at plus 450
02:21But the Ravens now only a dollar behind just 70 cents behind
02:25KC in the AFC championship race the Lions have the best price out of NFC teams at plus
02:32750 moving a full dollar in front of the 49ers
02:36Then it's the Bills at 11 to 1 the Texans at 13 to 1 and a ton of
02:41Contenders out of the NFC that round out the top 10
02:46So dumps when we talk about Baltimore when we talk about Kansas City
02:49The Chiefs have covered in five of their six wins, of course undefeated to start the year, but they haven't looked
02:57Overwhelming Patrick Mahomes six touchdowns to eight interceptions a negative TD to INT ratio
03:04Unheard of and yet entered Monday as the MVP favorite after the Sunday slate now
03:10It's Lamar Jackson a full $2 in front of Patrick Mahomes
03:14But these are two guys that have won four of the last six NFL MVP
03:20Awards we wouldn't really expect the voters to say hey here. These guys are once again
03:25Let's just give them the benefit of the doubt Mahomes doesn't have the stats
03:29Lamar Jackson does three consecutive games of more than 300 total yards for the Ravens in Oh
03:36Derek Henry
03:37Also the favorite now to win offensive player of the year in the NFL the NFL's leading rusher on this five-game win streak for Baltimore
03:45At least 92 yards on the ground in every one more than a buck thirty in four of the five
03:52So we'll sing the Ravens praises continuously. I am sure now. Let's get to the Chargers WZ
03:58They fall to an even 500 at three and three
04:01We expected this AFC as a conference as a whole to be a gauntlet with the Chargers falling to even
04:08500 at the end of seven weeks
04:10There's only seven teams above 500 in the AFC as a whole out of all
04:1516 on this side of the league and that does include teams like the Colts and the Broncos at four and
04:23Three at the end of the road dubsy with the Chargers and with a winning record
04:27Might they be able to earn a playoff berth in the AFC?
04:30I
04:31Doubt it Benny
04:32I have not been impressed from what I have seen at this point in the season you look at the schedule next three weeks
04:38We got the Saints Browns Titans. I guess if they're trying to make a bit of a run
04:42It's gonna have to be in the next month of football
04:44But a lot of question marks and you know not to go back to how's this charges team really gonna play?
04:49It looks like a team that needs to lean on the run game. That doesn't have a run game
04:53You don't have a quarterback who's sitting at a hundred percent there in Justin Herbert
04:57We know he came into week one with that plantar fasciitis the passing game
05:01He's still getting a downfield
05:02But they just cannot put up points and that's gonna be a very the Chargers have a near pick'em price
05:07Basically to make or miss the postseason. I don't think that speaks to LA as much
05:13I think it speaks to teams like the Dolphins off to a slow start this year two and four
05:18We'll see where they are with to a tongue of Iloa set to return
05:21Hopefully this week on Sunday again, the Dolphins a three and a half point home favorite against the Cardinals
05:26We'll discuss Arizona in just a moment. Of course the New York Jets favored to miss the postseason three games below
05:34500 even those teams that are slightly above 500 right now
05:38Indianapolis and Denver plus money prices to make the postseason
05:43So now let's get over to the NFC teams in action last night on
05:48Monday we'll start with the team that won on its own home turf. That's
05:53Arizona the Cardinals
05:55three and
05:56Four they've won a couple of games that maybe they were expected not to they've not looked great in the games
06:03They were expected to potentially win or at least be competitive
06:07I think I saw this last night on the broadcast
06:09Kyler Murray in his time as Arizona starting quarterback has failed to win back-to-back games since the
06:162021 season I'll double-check that in just a
06:20Moment, but doves by that standard we should expect the Cardinals to be around 500 as they are all season long
06:28So that you're telling me that we got to smash the Dolphins in week 8 to his big return back there in South Beach
06:33But for the Cardinals, they're so rocks or diamonds and that's what you can expect with a quarterback like Kyler Murray
06:39They're only gonna go as far as he can carry them whether it gonna be with that passing game
06:43We're trying to get it downfield with the wheels and he just has that x-factor
06:47You know, if you look at the stats that Kyler Murray puts out for the Cardinals
06:50There's nothing that wows you I guess maybe some of the running numbers there, but it's just the intangibles
06:54You know that gamer attitude that mindset to just be able to step up in the clutch and get it done
07:00Which is why they're a tough out there scary team to try and play against because you just don't know in which way they're
07:05Gonna try and come at you and last night it was a I guess a well-deserved victory
07:10You know that they just hung around they stay close enough long enough in I guess a bit of an arm wrestle
07:16But it's not a sustainable way to try and play football in the National Football League
07:20If you're going against a team like the Dolphins who with tool getting back in the mix put up 28 30 points
07:26It's gonna be really tough in trying to play again
07:28So as a better I would say the Cardinals could be the scariest team in trying to have confidence in especially with that
07:34Alarming statistic how what how woeful Kyler Murray is in trying to rattle off wins back-to-back
07:41Confirmed Kyler Murray has not won back-to-back starts as Arizona's starting quarterback since week seven or six and seven
07:48in the
07:502021 NFL season again the cards catching three and a half points as the road underdog in South Florida on
07:57Sunday doves he a lot of the odds around the Buccaneers right now off the board
08:01of course a lot of that dictated by the injuries last night to their star wideouts in Mike Evans and
08:07Chris Godwin Chris Godwin has spent the entirety of his NFL career in Tampa
08:12Of course same for Mike Evans Godwin under contract at the end of this year
08:17It is up. We'll see about his future with the Buccaneers moving forward
08:22I will say this about the Bucs right now still plus 160 to win the NFC South the Falcons a slight minus money favorite
08:30No team is really overwhelming in this division
08:33Despite everybody starting off the first three weeks or so
08:37Looking rather promising everybody except the Carolina Panthers who are of course a one-win football team the news that you need around
08:45The National Football League to get ready for week number eight up next on the early line
08:50So one week in the NFL comes to a close week number seven now in the books as we near the halfway point of this
08:57NFL season week eight already on the horizon great Thursday night football game to get started in just about
09:0448 hours and Dubsy's neck of the woods out in LA the Rams will play host to the Minnesota Vikings before we get there
09:11Of course as a week comes to a close in the NFL a ton of injury news
09:16That has been finalized since the Sunday slate and none of it is really good for the San Francisco
09:2349ers test confirming yesterday that Brayden Iuke has suffered a season-ending
09:28knee injury torn ACL and MCL
09:31He will miss the remainder of this year for San Francisco Debo Samuel a late scratch
09:37Dubsy against that Kansas City Chiefs team in the Super Bowl 58 rematch
09:41They said he was dealing with an illness a rather serious one. He has been hospitalized
09:46With pneumonia he has fluid in his lungs
09:49There is no timeline for his return at this moment scary situation for Debo Debo
09:55Excuse me Christian McCaffrey unlikely to return before the week 9 by for San Francisco
10:01Still on injury reserve with the Achilles tendonitis and just to add on to this laundry list George Kittle who has been banged up
10:09At times this year is considered day to day
10:12With a foot sprain and it's not like Dubsy this 49ers team has looked a part of an NFC
10:19Favorite and they're five and two and now this slew of injuries. They're below 500
10:24They're three and four and it does not look like this is going to get better any time in the near future for the 49ers
10:30No, it really doesn't they can sit to take on the Dallas Cowboys on deck there and the Cowboys
10:36It's only a matter of time before they truly wake up there. So for the 49ers, it's it's really not good
10:41Not not good news on any front there
10:43I guess the the only positive you would take away from that is
10:47CMC Christian McCaffrey could possibly back in the mix there by week 10
10:51But if they were to drop this next one of the Cowboys and sitting there at three and five
10:55They're gonna be playing catch up and without all these explosive offensive weapons. It's not a knock to Brock Purdy
11:01We're not gonna call him assistance systems quarterback Benny
11:04But they really do need the pieces in place for this offense to work
11:09So if they can get Christian McCaffrey back in the mix, you've got a question
11:12How's he really gonna be you know?
11:14Look at first game back coming into week 10 is obviously gonna be a bit of rust for a guy that you depend on for
11:19So much productivity. So for the 49ers Shanahan where the smartest minds in the business
11:24They've got to find something some kind of spark to just try and keep that season alive until I can get a little healthier there
11:31But Brandon are you getting said to miss the rest of the season? That's that's a massive blow up there in Santa Clara
11:36We'll see exactly about the status of Juwan Jennings as well
11:40Who missed Sunday's game for the 49ers to be that other wide receiver option?
11:45Get ready to learn the names Jacob cowing and Ricky Pearsall who was shot in the offseason
11:50It is the healthy wide receiver for the 49ers names like Ronnie Bell out of Michigan as well
11:57And Brock Purdy has not played clean football
12:00Dovesy a lot of conversation the game manager. He's just taking advantage of the system yada yada yada
12:05I think that has been largely disproven
12:08But he threw three interceptions without a single touchdown pass on Sunday against KC
12:13He's got seven INTs this year five in the last three games for San Francisco
12:20That is uncharacteristic Brock Purdy football where he has been clean and operated in this Kyle Shanahan system
12:27Incredibly efficiently as you mentioned they do host the Cowboys Dallas off the buy
12:32It's Sunday night football a renewal of the old NFC rivalries
12:37Neither team enters feeling all that good about where they stand the good news for the Cowboys. They're on the road
12:42They're three and three this year and the boys all three of their wins have come from
12:48outside of the star and away from Dallas now for San Francisco a
12:54minus
12:55158 playoff price there's still the slight favorites to win the NFC West
13:00Despite Seattle having the edge right now
13:03San Francisco does have the direct tiebreaker with that victory Thursday night now two weeks ago
13:09But does he really when you look at the Niners?
13:12It's always been odds optimism from the oddsmakers this team went fully healthy even with the early season struggles
13:17They're going to contend for a Super Bowl
13:20Once again, they're going to win the NFC and it's hard to knock down the Niners have played in four of the previous five
13:26NFC championship games, but it feels like a long shot right now for San Francisco to get there
13:31I guess the silver lining the 49ers for the second best place in the NFC only behind Detroit
13:38Yeah
13:38things not getting easy here for
13:40Bang bang nine a gang their little banged up as you can see from that graphic and for me Benny
13:44I don't know. I just feel like it's it's getting late early up there in Santa Clara
13:49You know the longevity of a plane in the NFL trying to make that playoff push
13:53You need good fortune on the injury side of things. They just haven't had it coming through the first seven weeks here
13:59So for the 49ers trying to turn things around, I just don't see it happening
14:02If you look at some of these numbers
14:04These are numbers going off the 49ers from last year when they aren't full health full billing
14:09So I think the odds make is just putting a little too much respect on Cole Shanahan in the 49ers
14:15I'm really not buying it. You are what your record tells us you want
14:17They are three and four team right now and Seattle have looked a little better there
14:21So in terms of trying to finish up top of the Divi, they're playing catch-up football
14:25I just don't see how they're gonna make up that margin
14:28The 49ers a four and a half point favorite for Sunday night at home against Dallas
14:33They've been booked as a favorite and every single game since the start of last year all 20 a season ago
14:40Including Super Bowl 58 against the Chiefs the first seven to start this year more than likely will be by the time we end out
14:47week number eight to a tongue of Iloa set to return to practice tomorrow for Miami and emerge off of the
14:54IR a lot of people have speculated about to his football future
14:59He is the one calling the shots he along with his family and the Dolphins medical staff have determined that he is ready
15:05To go there is hopes
15:08Dovesy that he will start on Sunday in South Florida as the Dolphins welcome in the Arizona Cardinals as we have shared a few times
15:15Miami three-and-a-half point home favorite already for Sunday
15:18Yeah, I think that numbers a little Steve there seems like a fishy line for me, but fertility come back
15:23Well 26 years of age is absolute superstar in the league. We need him back in the mix
15:29Went through what he's fourth concussion in five years
15:32So not good on that side of things, but we saw it to a face in the press yesterday face in the media
15:37And he's confident. That's what you want to see. He's not gonna be second-guessing himself and for a young quarterback
15:43That's that's sort of the optimism that you'd want to see as a head coach and especially for some of these weapons
15:48They put around to up for the Miami Dolphins. This season is on the line for a chance at winning Snoop Huntley
15:54He's given him a decent shot, but it has not been good enough
15:56Not up to the level here that we expect in the NFL so tour returns
16:00Watch out for Miami to get hot maybe put together a little run
16:04This would be your time to buy in the Dolphins the worst scoring offense in the NFL
16:09That's the change with two or more around the NFL next when you set
16:13expectations for something
16:14You don't want them to fall flat because of an injury of all things
16:19Dubs we had all circled week number eight in the commanders hosting the Bears
16:24Number two overall pick offensive rookie of the year frontrunner off to a historic start to his career
16:31Jaden Daniels playing host to the number one overall pick Caleb Williams who has come on especially strong for Chicago
16:38The last three weeks the Bears off the by they're ready to go
16:42We'll see about Jaden Daniels Dan Quinn telling the media yesterday. He is dealing with a rib injury
16:47They remain hopeful he can play on Sunday, but week to week never a great designation
16:54We have seen some movement in this spread the Bears were a slight road favorite after Sunday now
17:01It's two and a half in favor of Chicago
17:03And if you want to keep it under a field goal, you got to pay the hefty price at minus
17:08120 all of that an indication to me dubs that we might not actually see Jaden Daniels in a matchup of one versus two
17:15Yeah, if you're looking for the injury report follow the numbers here
17:18The odds make is always the first one to work to adjust there
17:22But what a matchup this would be if Jaden Daniels would go were to go for the commanders to young quarterbacks
17:27We're just absolutely balling out in year one
17:30And I feel like it's been a minute many since we've had a couple of top
17:34Draft picks a couple of top quarterbacks really connect this early into their young careers
17:39I think Jaden Daniels has been an absolute standout for the commanders always had that
17:43Yeah question mark about the deep all the accuracy, but is absolutely shining it for a guy like Terry McLaurin scary Terry
17:50He's saying yes. Thankfully. I finally found a quarterback who can get me downfield and for King Caleb Williams and the Bears
17:56I mean, this was the quarterback that was set up for success with so many, you know
18:01High octane offensive weapons around team if you will saw for me two of the dynamites in the game
18:06You'd love to see him squaring off. We flex this games
18:09We could get the primetime matchup, but obviously having that rib injury not something you want to be working with as a young quarterback
18:16Especially in the pocket getting a lot of pressure and expected to get even more there Sunday night
18:21So hopefully Jaden Daniels can't get set for week 8, but if not, we're gonna have to wait
18:26But certainly to with the to the superstars of the sport right now and doves not only because of performances
18:32But perhaps this injury not just a line for week 8 in the matchup outside the nation's capital between the commanders and the Bears
18:40But the odds to win Offensive Rookie of the Year
18:42Daniels at a point greater than a $2 favorite even after week 6 still remain a hefty favorite in front of
18:50Caleb Williams who threw for four touchdowns in London against Jacksonville now
18:55It's just minus 115 Daniels the favorite but Caleb Williams back to even money plus 100 an opportunity on
19:02Sunday to make a statement more than likely against his opposing quarterback
19:06That could be Marcus Mariota who is great for Washington in relief against the Panthers on Sunday afternoon
19:13More quarterback news around the NFL Brian day ball has said hey Daniel Jones still our guy
19:19We shall see how much longer that is the case true lob came in
19:24After the game was out of hand on Sunday against the Eagles not good news for the Raiders
19:29Aidan O'Connell has a broken thumb on his right throwing hand. He is out for the next four to six
19:36Weeks the Raiders did add Desmond Ritter the former Falcons quarterback to their quarterback room
19:42It seems as though Gardner Minshew is going to be the starter moving forward
19:45He had four turnovers dubsy on Sunday for the Raiders in LA against the Rams
19:51It doesn't really matter if it's O'Connell Minshew or even Des Ritter
19:55The Raiders are going to have a top five or top ten pick in the 2025 NFL draft. They're selecting a quarterback
20:02I can guarantee you that now
20:04Yeah, not a not a bad class coming up as well there
20:07So Gardner Minshew may be the gatekeeper for now
20:09But for a couple of these teams take a look at their schedules and where they sit going into week eight
20:14I mean it is all but done making up the numbers there Danny dives Daniel Jones
20:18I mean how much longer are we gonna stick with Danny dimes a quarterback for the Giants?
20:24I guess there's 90 million guaranteed reasons why he is meant to be that guy
20:28But it just hasn't worked out and eventually Benny you're gonna say hey, it was a bad beat
20:32I didn't have the cards at the table. It could be time to walk away
20:35I'd say by week 10 overs unders and I would set the unders as this mark just time and time again
20:42I try to put trust in the Giants, you know
20:44He shows up and has a bright spot one Sunday afternoon and then completely goes missing
20:50He makes a mistime throws bad decisions in for New York if they're trying to turn things around
20:55This cannot be your guy to lead you into the promised land of the next two to three years. You've got to move on a
21:02Very interesting offseason ahead for the G man, of course Joe Shane the GM and Brian Dayball the head coach
21:08We're not the guys in positions of power when drafting Daniel Jones
21:12But they did hitch their wagon to his contract extension wide receiver news as we share DK
21:18Metcalf is considered week-to-week with a knee injury
21:21Also, not a great designation Jameson Williams facing a two-game suspension for a violation of the performance enhancing
21:29substance guidelines in the NFL
