00:00 [MUSIC]
00:03 As we got the next game up, the nightcap for Sunday night.
00:07 It was the LA Rams at the Detroit Lions.
00:09 And the Lions went off as the three point home favorite,
00:14 53 was the closing total.
00:16 So the game landed near both the total and the side.
00:20 And full disclosure here, guys, we were watching this game in game live earlier.
00:25 And Mark had the team total of the Rams up and over 23 and a half.
00:31 And I had the Detroit Lions minus three.
00:35 Our producer Frank also had the Rams on the money line.
00:39 So all of those obviously not correlated.
00:42 You would think one of us is going to win the bet.
00:45 No, it landed in a spot where all three of us lost.
00:49 So you might be able to hear it in our voices.
00:53 None of us very happy about the ending of this game.
00:55 The Rams go down in the Motor City 24 to 23.
01:00 However, they cover the number of three as the underdog.
01:04 The game stays under 53.
01:06 Mark Zeno, throw it over to you, man.
01:09 Overall thoughts on the Sunday nightcap here, Rams going down to the Lions.
01:13 >> I hope every single hair on Sean McVay's head falls out tonight.
01:18 That's what I hope.
01:18 Disgusting play calling in the red zone.
01:22 Just absolute, just it was a live abortion of play calling in the red zone
01:26 by Sean McVay tonight.
01:28 It's unreal.
01:29 Just the smartest guy in the room syndrome.
01:32 I can't even express words.
01:34 I'm so flabbergasted at what I watched tonight from that man in the red zone.
01:40 Three trips and three field goals, couldn't get one damn touchdown.
01:44 And it cost his team a damn game, a playoff game no less,
01:47 that they should have won because they played better.
01:49 Stupid coaching.
01:51 I mean, it's impossible to handicap in the NFL when a coach decides to be a moron
01:57 repeatedly, and he was a moron three times in a red zone tonight.
02:00 I mean, he threw a fade to Cooper Cup.
02:05 Just who's running that play anymore?
02:10 It's not 2001, it's 2023, 24, whatever freak year it is.
02:16 Just God, just awful play calling all around.
02:20 Just every time, first down, and just dive straight ahead right into a wall of guys.
02:24 Yep, we'll just waste the whole down.
02:26 Why not?
02:26 Sick to my stomach.
02:31 Absolute sick to my stomach.
02:32 >> Yeah, it is a tough one all around.
02:37 >> 100% right handicap, right side, wrong result.
02:41 And it was only a wrong result.
02:43 I would have rather the refs have screwed me than that.
02:45 >> Or a kicker maybe, right?
02:50 Drew, don't start.
02:51 >> [LAUGH] No, the coaching handicap, you're right.
02:55 It's very difficult.
02:56 >> And then it's 24, 23, they get to the edge of field goal range.
03:02 It's third and four, and the moron tackle gets called for holding.
03:07 Because all you had to do then, if you wanted to be a conservative moron,
03:10 Sean McVay, on third and four at the edge of field goal range,
03:14 is run straight ahead, that dive that you would love to do.
03:18 And if you don't get the first down, put your idiot kicker on the field and
03:21 take the lead.
03:21 Freaking coaching, man, it's just unreal.
03:27 I wanna be conservative at the five yard line, but
03:29 I don't wanna be conservative at the 45 yard line.
03:31 It's ridiculous.
