00:00Welcome to the bet. QL daily boost. I'm Lucy verge of bet QL. And I am joined by Matt Warner
00:09and Kate Constable. And we have an NFL odds for all of you today as the playoffs continue.
00:15And we have a game this evening and this boost is on Cooper cup and Jordan Addison to each
00:19score a touchdown in this one boosted two plus five 50 as users. What do you guys think
00:24of this one? So this is, um, an interesting one because you, you hear the name Cooper
00:29cup and you automatically think, okay, well he is Matthew separate favorite target. Um,
00:33he's kind of his security blanket. Of course, Cooper cup is going to be targeted at ton
00:37tonight. He's going to find the end zone and Cooper comes from really quiet lately. So
00:41of the two players in this leg, he would be my concern. Actually. Um, Jordan Addison,
00:47I feel like if what teams have done against the Vikings is either take away Justin Jefferson
00:52and allow the other players to eat or allow Justin Jefferson to go off and, you know,
00:57shut down everyone else. So I think there's a good chance that the Rams try and shut down
01:00JJ and allow some of the other receivers, um, to get a little bit more action. And Jordan
01:05Addison would be a recipient of that. So I like the Jordan Addison part of this. I mean,
01:09Cooper cup, especially in a playoff game. Like there's a really good chance all of a
01:12sudden he just shows up and Matthew Stafford's going to him all the time. So like we always
01:16say, Matt plus five 50, that's a pretty decent number and a little coffee money, a little
01:20beer money, nothing wrong with that for some action tonight, especially in a game that
01:23I think is hard to handicap on the side. I know you guys feel a little differently, but
01:26we'll get into that in a second. Yeah. Um, I don't mind this. I don't mind this boost.
01:32I mean, it's plus five 50, like you said, so you get, you ain't going to be crazy here
01:36no matter what. Uh, I like the over in the game quite a bit because personally I think
01:41both these defenses are bad. Quite honestly, like the Vikings get glazed all the time and
01:46like, I think they're total frauds. I think the defense is a disaster. Brian Flores. No,
01:52don't want him. Don't want him in Chicago. That's for sure. As the head coach, uh, and
01:56the Rams defense. I mean, we've seen it play at times this year. They've gotten smoke.
02:00Uh, and yeah, these guys to get this many yards. I mean, Jordan Addison, obviously I
02:04think he can get open a lot because they're going to be concerned about Justin Jefferson
02:07on the other side. And he'd be the one that I think maybe you'd be a bit more worried
02:11about here. So, uh, but yeah, don't mind it. Plus five 50, maybe a quarter unit, half unit,
02:16like we always say. Yeah. It also will be interesting to see who you guys get as a head
02:20coach for the bears. Now that variable is off the market. So very exciting news over
02:25the weekend. Well, so yes, well, I hope you're in Chicago. Um, so that's, uh, you know, exciting
02:35stuff that my cradle is now the head coach of the Patriots. So very exciting. Can't wait
02:39to see who the head coach of the bears will be and to see if this odds boost hits plus

03:22side underscore and at Lucille Burge. We have our favorite bets for tonight. And Kate, as you said,
03:27it's a little difficult to handicap the side here. And I was even going back and forth on this.
03:32And I am going to take the Vikings to cover taking Vikings minus two and a half. They covered in four
03:38of their last five. As you said, they, they ended the season with not so great of a not cover,
03:44but they did before that cover in all of those games in which they were favorites and they were
03:49not favorites and final game of the season. So, you know, their favorite here. So there's a pattern
03:54perhaps also Matthew Stafford was held to under 200 passing yards in his last three appearances
04:00and Cooper Cup caught only four passes for 53 yards in those three, which you said, Kate,
04:05you've been very quiet. So I think the Vikings can win this one and cover. And if you're looking at,
04:11as I mentioned, odyssey.com slash bet QL, our staff picks for today are long shots for this game.
04:17And I like Vikings exact score Vikings to win 3127. That is plus 20,000 at bed. If you are
04:26interested in a bet such as that one, the Vikings are averaging four more points scored per game
04:31than the Rams 25 to their 21. So this difference of four also covers the spread minus two and a
04:37half. So I like the Vikings to cover. And then if you also want to add in this, that as well,
04:42it does exist just so, you know, so Vikings minus. Love it, Lucy. Um, I think there could
04:47be quite a few Vikings bands too in Arizona, uh, Vikings fans travel well and tickets have been
04:54cheap for them for that game. So Vikings fans may be scooping those up. Uh, I'm going to go TJ
04:58Hawkinson to have an anytime touchdown plus two 10 at bed. MGM. The Rams have been really poor
05:03at defending tight ends. Um, averaging six receptions, tight ends are against the Rams
05:09at about 65 yards. And, uh, Hawkinson was targeted eight on last week against the lions.
05:14He had eight targets obviously didn't haul in a ton of those because Sam Darnold was not very
05:18accurate last week against the lions. Um, but I think being the Rams defense has allowed tight
05:24ends to eat throughout the season. I think Hawkinson is going to be someone who plays a big
05:28role in this game. Plus he didn't play in the first meeting against the Rams. So maybe Minnesota
05:32is going to throw him in and kind of try and surprise LA a little bit using him in a lot of
05:36different sets. So I like Hawkinson, um, and anytime touchdown plus two 10 or a little long
05:42shot here. If you want to take him to have two plus touchdowns, uh, 18 to one at better.
05:48There you go. Uh, I definitely could see that happening. I think it's going to be a higher
05:53scoring game. As I said, I could give out the over here as well. I took it at 46 and a half.
05:58It's 47 and a half. Now it's all creeped up a little bit. Uh, I'm on the Rams here. I got the
06:03worst of the number, uh, before the venue got changed to Arizona. So I got a one and a half,
06:09uh, with the Rams. Uh, but now it's two and a half. Um, honestly, you know, you can just take
06:14them on the money line if you want a two and a half, but two and a halves are out there.
06:18Uh, I just, I've said it before. I'll say it again. I don't like the Vikings. I think they're
06:23pretty fraudulent, uh, quite honestly, especially that defense. Uh, and I think they could get
06:29shredded today by Matthew Stafford and company. Uh, one thing I would look for here, if you,
06:33if you want a long shot, I know we have our long shots, uh, thing, the thing of the day,
06:38whatever, what do you call it? Staff picks is our thing of the day, Matt. Yes. Yeah.
06:45So one, uh, long shot that I like in this game, we've already seen several games have
06:5014 plus point, uh, blowouts, uh, huge blots in these games, Los Angeles, uh, minus 12 and a
06:58half or minus 13 and a half. So basically to win, uh, by two touchdowns combined with Puka Nakua,
07:04125 plus receiving yards, just basically for him to go off, uh, when the Vikings defense here,
07:11uh, that's a plus 2000, uh, for that to happen. So if you will Rams here, uh, you know, you could
07:18take them to win by two touchdowns and you could take a Nakua, uh, to go off for 125 plus yards.
07:24Uh, and you're getting plus 2000 over at FanDuel. That's a long shot that I wouldn't mind, but
07:29overall love the Rams and I love the over. Love that. If you're looking for a thing of the day,
07:33we have three of them in our long shot bets for today, Matt, love that very much. So get in on
07:39all of this. As you said, this game is tough to handicap. So the Vikings might be fraud,
07:43but I do like them. So we'll see Matt head to head as always. So get in on all of our bets and
07:48the odds of this plus five 50 at Caesars and subscribe to the Beck QL daily boosts.
