00:00All right. Well, here is the gift of the week. Is it? I look, I mean, you know me, I'm very
00:08careful. I'm measured with these picks, but Matt, these two teams have played a million
00:14times. It's a last second field goal one way or the other. It was three and a half earlier
00:19in the week, Ravens and Steelers. Now it's, it's the number is three. I got to take Pittsburgh,
00:25you know, like I just, I always just take the points in this series. It's going to be
00:2916, 15, 14, 13, 21, 20 with a minute to go. And you know, I think the difference for me
00:38this time around that in this game, call me crazy, call me crazy is the fact that I'm
00:43not positive. Justin Tucker is going to kick the game winning field goal for the first
00:47time in like 10 years. So for me, that's why I think Pittsburgh is my play here. Obviously
00:53I can see Baltimore winning, but doesn't it feel like this every year, same game doesn't
00:58matter where they play lines, always three, three and a half. And then it comes down to
01:01the end. Yeah. Whether one team sitting there starters, whether they're not, it doesn't
01:05matter. It's going to be a close game. And the fact Pittsburgh is at home, I think kind
01:09of gives them that little extra edge for sure. At least with the spread. But yeah, I think
01:14what's interesting about this game is you mentioned Justin Tucker, not being able to
01:18fully trust him this year. You really can't trust that Baltimore defense at all either.
01:23And now that Pittsburgh kind of has their passing game going a little bit, at least
01:26their deep passing game going, and that's opened up the running game as well. That offense
01:31just looks a lot better than it did even early in the year when they were winning some of
01:35these close games. Maybe you might even call them fluky games at times, but they were coming
01:40through there and now it just feels like they're much more of a complete team. And yes, they're
01:45still playing a close game like they did last week where they easily could have lost, but
01:50they're finding ways to win. They have that veteran quarterback who knows what he's doing.
01:54Looks like he's got his mojo back a little bit and we know they have a great defense.
01:58So this is going to be a fantastic game. I'm really looking forward to it. Baltimore's
02:01offense is scary. And if they get some turnovers early, maybe we get ourselves a little bit
02:06of a surprise avalanche, but I don't think so either. I think it's going to be close.
