Houston and Kansas City. I'm intrigued by this game on Sunday. I can't wait to watch it play out. This isn't the Kansas City team that we're used to. They came up lame against the Dallas Cowboys on Thanksgiving Day. They're gonna face maybe the best defense in professional football, and the offensive line is banged up for Kansas City. They're not as explosive as they Where they're gonna be held their feet to the fire going up against that defense. The question is though, can CJ Strout come up with a game plan to beat Spi but Steve Saggnolo in his own building, a 3.5 point favorite for the Chiefs and a total of 41.5, man, a, a Chiefs game at 41.5, insane. Yeah, I mean, listen, Houston has had to empty the tank a lot just to get back to this point, Donnie, where they're now, of course, back into the thick of thing in the division and everything else, and you gotta wonder, you've got a very desperate and championship Kansas City team here at home, weather doesn't look to be great. Here and Houston has always been better at home this season, that defense than on the road. So now we're in December, and now all of a sudden weather is going to be an issue. You're going into an environment here in Kansas City that they have owned. I wonder how much Houston has left in the tank here. It feels like, uh, listen, 5 in a row, it's likely 6 in a row, uh, with the Kansas City Chiefs here. Philadelphia Eagles and the Los Angeles Chargers, two teams battling to make it into the playoffs. The Eagles hoping to win their division, but it's sort of been collapsing as of late and getting injured, quite frankly, but they're gonna take on the Chargers, who don't have a very good offensive line, and now their quarterback has a broken hand. He's probably going to play, but can he take snaps under center? it going to affect the running game? Can he protect himself in the pocket? But the bigger questions are, what are we getting out of the Philadelphia Eagles on offense, particularly from Jalen Hurts? You have a game that's played in the dome, no cold weathers, no swirly windy conditions. They should have a different offensive game plan. But again, Joe, they're favoring this game minus 2.5. That's a surprise to a lot of people. Yeah, it, it really is here. I mean, I, and, uh, to me, I, I want nothing to do with the side in this. I would much rather go with the under here, Donnie, because I think that we have seen, uh, especially home dogs here, right? The last 34 Monday night football games where there was a home dog. Involved have gone under 23 and 9, 72%, only 40 points per game. So the home team dog usually puts up a pretty big fight, and I think both defenses are gonna be the best units on the field, Donnie in that game. Yeah, now it's, it's one to play out because I expect better performances and you're just doing that old double up. There are big prices on touchdown props for AJ Brown and also Davonta Smith in this game and also for Jalen Hurts to go for over 1.5 touchdown passes. And also one of those PSAs that we like all year long, it felt like the market was really. Collapsing on over 1.5 touchdowns. You have to pay egregious numbers. That's not the case this weekend, so maybe some bounce backs. And if you thought last night, hey, look at that game last night, all the amount of scoring they did, you see what the quarterbacks did yesterday? Barely thrown for any touchdown passes in that game. Most of the damage was done on the ground. We'll see if that bounces back.
