Gregg Rosenthal and Nick Shook analyze NFL matchups (Part 2)

So I was like thinking, okay, Stefanski overseas in Madrid, that's another reason to take him. Oh, and here's another reason to take the Falcons. I know I've got getting way off track, but the Bengals played like 100 snaps last week against the Titans, so they're going to be tired. I like your argument. Ultimately, I don't like two and a half point home favorites. That's usually a team that's not really as good as their opponent, but just the line that they don't know what to do with it. And I don't trust the, the Saints at all. So it took me a while to get to that stupid point, but I got to it. Yeah, no, it's just the wrong. I just, I just realized sometimes when, when I go to pick games between teams that have had memorable finishes, I like to go back and choose that score and I really missed an opportunity. I picked the Browns this week to win by seven, 24 to 17. I really missed an opportunity to pick the Browns by the score that they beat the Saints for their first win back in the NFL in 1999. 21 16. Tim Couch to Kevin Johnson, Hail Mary, final play of the game, tip to him, back corner of the end zone, toe drag, falling out of bounds. Should have picked that score, but that was also a five point margin. That would put the Browns in as a winner anyway. I love that. Yes. Browns as an underdog. The Saints defense so bad that Shadur Sanders started smiling slash laughing when asked about it. I'm not sure about that, but that, that's fun. Let's go Shedeur. That would be a fun quarterback controversy there. My final pick. I keep making a mistake with sometimes these third picks. Like last week I went 2 and 1 in the picks. Right. I've had three straight winning weeks, so I'm feeling good. But I, I guaranteed I'm going to get four or five out of my five picks and I did. I got the four. I picked the wrong one as my third. Lamar Jackson gets hurt right away. But still I, I have this urge. I think with my third pick I picked the hard one, not the obvious one. And I'm doing it again and it's Commanders plus four and a half against the Rams. Maybe that's my problem because the other one I was thinking about was Denver -2 and a half and Carolina and that just feels like I really like the Denver one over Caroline. I think the defense is the best group. It's way better. There's just like a little bit where it feels like it's too easy and they're trying to get us to take the cheese there on the road. Here's the thing. I watch these two teams every week, Nick. I think the commanders are a little better than people think. And I think the Rams are playing even worse than these final scores indicate. Like, even in this two game winning streak, I've not been impressed. The passing game is just not happening for.
