00:00It's time to look ahead and see what's in store for the Sunday slate.
00:08Now a number of games that are worth a circle and I think that this is one of them that
00:13I have to start with.
00:14It's going to be the Houston Texans versus the Green Bay Packers spread starting at that
00:17two and a half and then the total sitting at 47 and a half.
00:21Tom and I started talking about these games on Monday night, maybe the main ones that
00:25we found exciting, but now there should be more to the lines, more to the props, more
00:29to everything else.
00:30So Tom, let's dive back into this.
00:32What do we think of the Texans versus Packers matchup coming down the slate this Sunday?
00:36Yeah, obviously it's shaping up to be one of the games of the week.
00:39Like it reminds me of what we saw from Commander's Ravens last week.
00:44Like this is what we should be seeing.
00:45Two great teams, two teams that are largely healthy for the most part, obviously no Nico
00:49Collins for the Texans immediately jumping into some of the lines.
00:53The Tank Dell line sitting at 62 and a half for the Texans just seems like a touch too
00:58high.
00:59And, you know, personally I'm invested in Tank Dell longterm.
01:02Like I think he's a phenomenal talent, just the lines a little bit high.
01:06And that's what it comes down to when we still have Steph Diggs there.
01:08I think they're going to try and move the ball with Nixon officially on the ground.
01:13I just don't know how much we're going to get from Tank Dell.
01:15You know, considering we do it, but we have a good defense on the Packers side of things.
01:18I'm not going to say it's amazing.
01:19It's not terrible.
01:20Like it's a good defense.
01:21So 62 and a half, I kind of lean on the under if he starts off a little bit slow and we
01:26do see the Texans fall behind.
01:28And then we see a Tank Dell number in the forties, mid forties.
01:32That's where I think we can take an over because then we put into a passing game script.
01:35So I think it's business as usual for the Packers side of things.
01:39They have so many options.
01:40It's kind of tough to pick.
01:41Oh, it's going to be a big read week.
01:42Oh, it's going to be a big Dobbs week.
01:44They just have too many options sometimes.
01:46So nothing jumps off the page as of now.
01:48Yeah, but they're all good.
01:50They're all good.
01:51That's what it comes down to.
01:52Yeah.
01:53Which is true, which is also why this makes it such a good matchup.
01:55And I like the comparison to the Commander's Ravens because you have that team that can
01:58try to claw back in because the talent is there.
02:00So it's going to be interesting.
02:02Obviously, the spread speaks to how close this game can potentially be.
02:05But most importantly, probably where I would navigate is kind of some of the receptions
02:09and stuff, because we know what the attempts are going to look like.
02:11We know the key players that there might try to go to.
02:14But once Diggs shows his reliability and starts building chemistry with his quarterback, he
02:18kind of becomes that key guy, whether that's a few chunk plays or finding the end zone.
02:22So a number of things to navigate with the Texans and the Packers coming up Sunday.
