00:00Justin Fields kept his job.
00:05That's a little more surprising just based on the chatter we were hearing.
00:10I don't know if maybe he gets benched in this football game, Don, and this whole thing is
00:14a mess.
00:15What have you made of Raider Steelings?
00:16Here's what I like about it, though, because I think Justin Fields understands that he
00:20has to play not just to win the football game, Kevin, he has to actually play to excel.
00:25Like, I'm the reason why we won this football game.
00:27So I took a flyer today.
00:28Justin Fields over 177.5 passing yards against that Raiders defense, knowing that he has
00:33to keep his job.
00:34I also took a flyer, and this is a little bit longer, minus 188 price for an anytime
00:38touchdown pass at a Justin Fields.
00:40It's expensive, but it's just one.
00:42I'm trying to play it the opposite of the scenario that many people want.
00:46Justin Fields struggles first quarter and a half.
00:48Raiders have a 7-3 lead.
00:49Oh, no, here comes Russell Wilson in the door.
00:51I'm just looking at it, Joe, from my way, the way I would play it as a quarterback.
00:54I got to be perfect today.
00:56I'm going to try to push the football.
00:57Come over to the dark side, the contrarian side.
01:00That's it, baby.
01:01I like the Steelers here in this matchup.
01:02I really do.
01:03I think the Steelers are the more complete team.
01:05Again, we talked about it on Thursday night that if the Steelers...
01:08There's no way that's the contrarian side of the game.
01:11He's on a heater.
01:12Come on.
01:13I agree with you, Joe.
01:14Go ahead.
01:15You're saying the Steelers or Fields are the contrarian side?
01:16Fields.
01:17Oh, okay, okay, okay.
01:18I just broke your momentum.
01:19It's all right.
01:20But we talked about it on Thursday night, okay, that if Justin Fields wins that game,
01:25there is no quarterback controversy for the most part?
01:28Right.
01:29Well, we did say that they wouldn't be talking and clamoring for his job as much.
01:33But unfortunately, Dak Prescott pulls the game out, and they're on the road.
01:37I do feel that it's a breakout performance for Fields as well.
01:40But to Donnie's point, the reason why I was all perked up, I love the over here.
01:4536 and a half, I think we get a lot of points.
01:47I think the Steelers can run it.
01:49They can throw it.
01:50And Aiden O'Connell, I think, can move the football.
01:52We saw Brock Powers break out with a 97-yard performance, the touchdown.
01:56I think he can eat today from Las Vegas, plus 260-anytime touchdown.
02:02So I think we're going to get points here.
02:04In the end, I still believe Steelers are the right side, laying a field goal on the road,
02:08I believe, more than Justin Fields, obviously, than I do Aiden O'Connell.
02:13But I think both offenses will look to push a little bit of tempo.
02:15And the way Dallas put up 350 on that secondary, maybe those Raiders-wide receivers can eat
02:21turnovers.
02:22But for me, the over 36 and a half is my best play.
02:24Let me ask you guys a question on this one, with Justin Fields.
02:27If we are betting men, which we are, what's the odds that we see Justin Fields get replaced
02:33in this football game?
02:34What are the odds on that?
02:35Big game?
02:36Yes.
02:37And again, take the injury out of it.
02:38I'm just saying, not playing good football, Mike Tomlin finally has his window to push
02:42it in.
02:43Because we're not talking about going on the road and taking on the Kansas City Chiefs
02:46who are down 21-3, let me just bring in Russ.
02:49This could be one of those games where it might be 10-9 at the half.
02:52And he's, odds, don't like what I see so far, let me get him in.
02:5510-9?
02:56I don't think Fields is safe.
03:01I don't think he's safe in this game.
03:03I would only look unders on his props.
03:06I think that Russell Wilson is breathing down his neck, and I think at a moment's notice,
03:11they could make a shift.
03:12I do.
03:13I'm not saying it's the right decision, I've told you that from the beginning.
03:17Mike Tomlin is going to make whatever decision he wants, and I think that's the one he wants
03:21to make.
