00:00Jane Daniels rushing yard prop. This has been an easy over for the last few weeks. 54 and a half. It's a high one this week. Minus 114. They got to keep pushing this one up, George, because he goes from like 38 to 45 to 50. Now it's 54 and a half this week.
00:18This kid's amazing. Absolutely amazing here. He's going to run. He almost doesn't have a choice here to get that offense moving here. 51, 36, 27. 127 yards against Atlanta. 81 last time against Philadelphia, by the way.
00:34All right. That's the game they won early in the season when they lost to Philadelphia. What do you have in this one? He had 18. They kept them in check. I can't bet the under. It may be high, but I can't bet the under here because I think he has to.
00:47I don't think they're going to be able to run the ball as far as with Robinson or Eklund all that much here. Passing, I think there'll be some plays to McLaurin. Brown's really stepped up here, but I think Daniels running is going to be what keeps the chains moving here. Although Philadelphia's going to have a spy on him, they're going to start spying to keep him in there.
01:04They want Daniels to beat him with his arm, not his legs here, so keep that in mind too. Probably a small play on the over. Okay. Now the receivers have been a quandary for Washington because Daniels has pushed McLaurin's totals over, over, over every single week.
01:22But at some point, someone's going to cover McLaurin and someone else is going to get involved, or I think that's going to be the case. I mean, George and I told everybody here on the show last week, just take McLaurin on all his overs and it ended up happening. But how about Deami Brown, who's also involved in the offense? 42 and a half. I mean, he could get 30 on one play, but I guess that's what would have to happen, George, right? Like, he'd have to have one big catch in order to get over on this. Will he do it?
01:47Deami Brown has been fantastic. All right. Zakaia has been banged up here, so he's not that guy. Deami Brown really is that number two receiver here. We know McLaurin's going to get all the, I was going to say all the love from Philadelphia. He's going to get all the attention from Philadelphia. There's Brown one-on-one here. I like this. Once again, if he doesn't reach it, I don't know if Washington wins the game. All right. 98 yards last week, I understand. Poor secondary. 89 against Tampa Bay, yes, poor secondary. Still, I'm going back to it.
02:13His numbers early in the season don't matter, by the way, because he wasn't used as much in the offense here. I'm going to go with Deami Brown.
02:19Yeah, he seems to be the second target right now for Daniels in a season where Daniels is throwing 250, 300 yards almost every game. Jalen Hurts, tush push. Will he get one this week? Minus 130, George, minus 130. It feels like, I don't think the tush push is ever going away. I don't want to say that.
02:37But I feel like the success rate has gone from 100 to like 90. So eventually that's going to go to 85 and 80. Reminds me of the Wildcat years ago with Miami. But for now, it still seems to work. And this is, I think, a fair line. If they get near the goal line, they're going to try this before they give it to Barkley.
02:55Now, remember, they went away from it last week. That's through the injury. They did not want Hurts on running the tush push here. This is anyone's guess. If they like his knee and they think he's fine, they're going to get this. They're going to get this as long as they like the knee. If they don't like it, maybe they try running it with Barkley. I mean, would it shock anyone if they bring in Kenny Pickett to let him do a tush push and take Hurts out? That would shock me. But it would be an option here.
03:23But it's the injury to Hurts. If Hurts wasn't hurt, I wouldn't know. Didn't mean to say it like that. But if Hurts didn't have the knee problem, no doubt in my mind they're doing this. No doubt in my mind. But it is the knee that worries me somewhat. That being said, hey, it says gambling for a reason. I'm going to say yes. I'm going to say yes, Craig. But in the back of my mind, they shied away from it last week in the fourth quarter once he suffered that knee injury in the third quarter.
03:49They got worried about it. They didn't want to put any extra hits. Or maybe he can't push off on that knee anymore, on that leg. So keep in mind, if you're doing this, this is far from the short thing it was a week ago.
04:01Yeah, agreed. All right. Finally, Terry McLaurin, who's been fantastic for Washington. You can't do this, but if you took out like the first week of the season of the NFL or the first two weeks, has there been anybody better than McLaurin, maybe Jamar Chase, plus 140 to score a touchdown this week?
04:17The only issue is when Washington gets down near the red zone, George, they're not fantastic. It feels like first down, they don't get it. Second down, they don't get it. Third down, they don't get it. And then they need the fourth. I know they keep going for it. So anytime touchdowns, I kind of feel like Ertz is more my guy here. McLaurin could have a huge game, though, no question.
04:36All right, took away my thunder there. I agree with you. I think Ertz is the guy for the anytime touchdown. All right. Once again, tight end, big target, red zone is just easy to find here. And listen, the toughest thing for a young quarterback generally is the red zone. The field is condensed, right? You get those 11 defenders in a shorter box here. It can be tough. McLaurin has been fantastic. I mean, utterly fantastic. Might be the best receiver in the NFL that we don't talk about enough, right?
05:00We talk about Chase, talk about JJ, Lamb, and St. Brown, but we don't talk about McLaurin all that much. And I don't think it should surprise anyone that as the season has gone on, Daniels and McLaurin have gotten better chemistry here. And next year, we're going to talk about those two as, you know, that wide receiver quarterback combo you want to get in your draft. You want the instant hook up there. So does he get it? I'm going to say no. Phil Dudley is one of the best fast secondaries in the league here.
05:25If Washington gets four touchdowns, they probably win the game. All right. I don't think it's going to be a high-scoring game. We're going to get this 55, 60 points here. I think points will be at a premium, especially for Washington. I'll say no, he doesn't get it.
