00:00 How about the doubleheader part of this game number two?
00:02 I don't know how much resistance we're getting in this one.
00:04 The red hot Buffalo Bill is going to Los Angeles
00:06 to take on the Chargers.
00:08 This line opened up, Joe, at 10, quickly moved up.
00:10 It's now sitting at 12 and a half
00:12 at the Fandler Sportsbook, and a total of 43 and a half.
00:15 The question isn't, for me, will Buffalo win?
00:18 Obviously, it's by margin,
00:19 but can Buffalo cover the total all by themselves
00:22 in this game, Joe?
00:24 - Well, of course they can,
00:26 but we've got a couple of different factors
00:28 in this game now, right?
00:29 So we have the old fired coach theory,
00:32 that first game afterwards for the Chargers,
00:34 who were thoroughly embarrassed in epic ways
00:37 by the Raiders there.
00:39 You know, the Bills have no more room for error.
00:42 So I don't think this is one of those letdown spots
00:45 that you hear about.
00:47 They know they can't lose another game.
00:49 They control their own destiny right now
00:51 to a certain degree.
00:52 They need to win.
00:54 That's what they care.
00:55 They're not going to give, I think, the Chargers
00:57 an opportunity to upend them.
00:59 Now, having said that, I looked at the total here
01:02 because I don't see the Chargers
01:05 stopping the Bills' running game.
01:06 I don't see the Bills ever taking their foot
01:09 off the gas here.
01:10 And I do think Easton Stick here now,
01:12 a couple of weeks under his belt,
01:14 I think they'll be able to have some success
01:16 with Allen and, you know, Eckler.
01:18 I think these guys are embarrassed.
01:21 I think they'll come out fighting.
01:22 And I think points are coming here.
01:24 I'm not buying the 43 and a half.
01:26 I think the over is the play.
