“Lincoln Riley and the Trojans, since they've joined the Big Ten, have had a lot of trouble traveling across the country to the Eastern time zone. Jordan Rodgers are you doubling down on USC under eight and a half wins I am not doubling down I'm going to take the over and here's why I agree I think there's a chance that they lose to Oregon Ohio State Indiana but don't count those out if you look at last year their four losses they scored 24 points or more in all those they scored 32 points and still lost to Illinois they scored 24 points and lost to Notre Dame like this is a team that can put up points with Jade Maiava and if Gary Patterson, the new defensive coordinator, can get them just a little better, a touchdown better, four points better on that side of the game. A couple of those losses turn to wins, and with that type of firepower at quarterback, you can beat anybody, right? They were really close to Oregon last year, even though the defense was really bad. So I think it's a marginal. I think they can get to nine wins, though.”

“And then, Jordan, let's talk about Texas. Their number is nine and a half wins at DraftKings. Over or under? Hammer the over.”
“and I don't feel that way about the Patriots offense, and I think the way they're going to use A.J. Brown in terms of a downfield threat will lead to more yards. Jordan Rodgers, jump in here. Do you see it the same way as these two guys, or would you go the other way with Smith? No, I'm going the same way, and I think he breaks that sneaky record we just saw of Tyreek Hill and has over 1,700 yards, and here's why.”
“Jordan Rodgers, jump in here. Do you see it the same way as these two guys, or would you go the other way with Smith? No, I'm going the same way, and I think he breaks that sneaky record we just saw of Tyreek Hill and has over 1,700 yards, and here's why. Drake May loves to push the ball downfield. They led the NFL in air yards per attempt last year. He was a runner-up for the MVP, and he did it with Stephon Diggs, Kayshaun Booty, and Mack Hollins. Now he's got A.J. Brown, and on the other side, Romeo Dobbs, who they traded for for the Packers, who led them in receiving. So not all the attention is going to be on A.J., but he's going to get a heavy share of the shots downfield. I think he's going to make an immediate impact. I'm surprised at the pricing here. I would have made this closer to minus 160, so I agree with you guys. I would play Brown.”
“and the prop we have is will he break the single season sack record, which, by the way, he set last year at 23. So we need 23.5 sacks for the yes to cash on this prop. It is plus 800. Mike T., we begin with you. Does he break the sack record? 100%, and here's why. You don't even want to give yourself 1% of wiggle room here? Here's why. Take copious notes here, Joe. Yeah. This is going to be a really good offense. When you're really good on offense the way the Rams are going to be, that's going to give Myles Garrett a lot more at-bats in the second half to sack the quarterback that he had in Cleveland a year ago. So if you just think about the way these games are going to be played, their opponents are going to be behind, something the Browns really weren't a year ago. So to me, just from a logic standpoint, this really sets up well for him with or without Aaron Donald, by the way, because I think if Aaron Donald's there, he's just going to see more remarkably one-on-one pass sets. So to me, I think this really sets up for a monster year for Myles Garrett. Jordan Rodgers, do you see it the same way as Mike T, where Myles Garrett has 65 sacks this year? No, I don't. It's just so hard. There's a reason that record of Michael Strahan stood for 24 years. You kind of have to have a little bit of luck. Last year, Myles Garrett had a three-game stretch where he had 10 sacks. five in one game, then one, then four. You kind of have to have some things break your way. I just don't think they do.”
“So, Lamar and Josh Allen, you can take them as a package deal, plus 265 to win the MVP award. Graz, we'll start with you. Who has the better chance at the MVP this season, Lamar or Josh Allen? I would say Josh Allen. I believe his team will be better. But, yeah, I think it's – I would say Josh Allen. I mean, it's good that they're the co-favorites. Obviously, we know they can win it, and if all goes well, they'll be in contention. Whenever Lamar Jackson's had a fully healthy season, he's been at or near the top of the MVP balloting. There's so much uncertainty in both places, really, due to the coaching changes, but especially on offense in Baltimore. Would you like them, or would you like the field? I would take the field. You'd go with the field. Jordan Rodgers, jump in here. You get Lamar and Josh Allen, or you get the field. Which way would you go? I'm taking the two guys that, when they're healthy, are really the most dynamic players in the NFL because they can throw it downfield.”
“where we dive into some numbers from DraftKings. For the first one, we'll call this the Mike McCarthy Bowl. After taking a year off, McCarthy has reemerged as the head coach of the Pittsburgh Steelers. So which team will have more regular season wins this year, the Steelers or his former team, the Dallas Cowboys, who are currently favored to have more? Jordan Rodgers, jump in. You've got first crack. Yeah, I'm going to go with the Steelers. Look, I think both have big ifs, right?”
“A.J. Brown is next for you, Jordan. His over-under is six catches tonight. Which way do we go? Hammer the over. I think he gets double digits, honestly. This is a team that pushes the ball downfield. Kayshaun Booty was second in the NFL in air yards per target last year. Those are going to go to A.J. Brown. This is going to be Drake May's new best friend.”
