00:00And it is also one of the most fun weeks to bet because these varying degrees of motivation,
00:05milestones for players, which we'll certainly talk about throughout the week, and then when it comes
00:09to milestones in terms of record-wise, a player like Mike Evans from the Bucs hitting 1,000 yards
00:14on the season, he did have 97, so he's on pace to hit 1,000 yards. Once again, he'll need to have,
00:20he needs to average 91.5 yards coming into today. He hit 97 today, so he needs to have
00:26whatever it is, 90-some-odd next week against the Saints, which he should be able to do. They're
00:3013.5-point home favorites, a matchup that he has historically torched them in, if he's not
00:35getting ejected against the Saints, that is. So we'll be looking there. And again, it's not like
00:40we're just looking at Mike Evans because we expect him to have 90 yards, whatever it is,
00:44to hit this milestone of 1,000 yards in every single one of his seasons, but the Bucs have
00:48full motivation on playing win. So this is like the perfect double-dip spot where we have players
00:52to play and win, and the motivation is there for whether it be contract, incentive, or career
00:56milestones. Another team we'll be looking at will be potentially the Ravens at 17.5. That's an insane
01:04line going up against the Browns, 17.5-point home favorites. But there's obviously now some
01:10speculation, or this is just my speculation, that we may not see Lamar play because with the Bills
01:16win today, they are fully locked into the number two seed because, remember, we saw the Ravens beat
01:22the Bills earlier this season, but the Bills are locked into that spot. So will Lamar play? Will
01:29Derrick Henry play, et cetera, et cetera? This is what we're going to be talking about throughout
01:32the week. So it is not going to be a surprise to see some of these lines change drastically.
01:39Are we going to be seeing backups for all of the Ravens, all of the Bills, all of the Eagles? So
01:44if you like the lines early and you're expecting some of these teams to sit players, you want to
01:49jump on them early because, I mean, 17.5 is an insane line. Now, granted, the Browns with DTR
01:54at quarterback have done absolutely nothing over the past few weeks to show you any shred of hope.
