Tonight’s episode felt like peak Week 11 chaos in the best possible way. I had Brad Thomas back on the show, and anytime Brad shows up with a notebook full of rushing props, you know things are going off the rails quickly. We dug into Drake Maye and JJ McCarthy using their legs, talked ourselves into Bijan Robinson (again), tried to emotionally prepare for whatever Justin Jefferson does to us this week, and somehow convinced ourselves Jaylen Waddle is due for the kind of game that makes you forget every moment of Dolphins-related pain. There were longest-reception darts, there were alt-line ladders, and yes—there was a brief moment where I contemplated trusting Baker Mayfield. Don’t judge me.
Then Producer Ryan McKee jumped in, and the vibe instantly shifted to “Let’s argue our way through this Circa Million card before one of us leaves the studio.” We locked in Texans –6.5, Falcons –3.5, Seahawks +3, Chiefs –3.5, and Lions +2.5—because apparently we like stress. Ryan brought back his Prison Picks from Tiny in Yuma, which honestly might be the most consistent part of the show at this point. If Tiny ever gets paroled, our whole betting ecosystem collapses.
Overall, this episode had the perfect mix of degeneracy, analysis, optimism, and self-delusion that defines midseason betting. It’s Week 11. We’re tired, the props are weird, the bye weeks are rude, and yet we continue to fire. And honestly? I wouldn’t have it any other way.
