00:03 They play Tampa Bay, who's an underdog
00:05 to the Philadelphia Eagles this weekend
00:07 on Monday night football in Tampa Bay.
00:09 The line opened up at two and a half.
00:10 It's still sticking there at two and a half.
00:12 A total of 44.
00:14 I don't know if Jalen Hurts is gonna play.
00:15 I don't know if Jalen Hurts can throw the ball
00:17 more than 20 times or 20 yards downfield,
00:19 which injuring his throwing hand
00:21 during that football game.
00:23 AJ Brown left that game.
00:24 Who knows if he's playing.
00:25 Devonta Smith didn't play in the game
00:27 because he was injured the week before.
00:28 And DeAndre Swift, thank goodness, had an illness.
00:31 So he didn't get injured in the game last week.
00:33 It's wild to see the Eagles as a favorite,
00:35 but I gotta tell you, Joe,
00:37 I actually agree with it because I don't know
00:38 what I'm getting out of Tampa Bay this weekend here.
00:41 And I don't know what I'm getting out of the Eagles,
00:43 but I do think that line is correct though, to be honest.
00:45 - It may very well be,
00:48 but there is the whole point of betting football
00:51 is to try to avoid variance, right?
00:54 Try to avoid it as best as possible, limit it.
00:57 What you just said here on both sides of the ball,
01:00 I don't know who the hell's playing.
01:02 I have no idea who's gonna be playing,
01:04 who's gonna be available,
01:06 and whether or not it will matter.
01:08 I mean, I'll say this.
01:09 I mean, the Tampa defense is the reason they're here.
01:12 So the defense, I think for the most part,
01:15 will certainly keep this game close enough
01:17 to make Eagle fans sweat and Eagle backers sweat.
01:20 But I would only look at the total in this game here
01:25 because if the injuries are what we think
01:27 they are and what they have on both sides of the ball,
01:30 then the defenses on both sides will probably
01:34 ruin it and rule this game.
01:36 So it was 44, 44 and a half.
01:39 Yes, I get it, it's in Tampa,
01:41 but I would only look at the under
01:43 and expect either of these two teams just wanna win
01:46 and get the hell out of there and move on
01:48 and hopefully get enough people healthy.
01:50 This is a tough one here, Donnie, with your Eagles.
