Starting point is 00:00:00 What's up, everybody, and welcome back to the Anything Better podcast show for NFL week. We're going into week seven, which is unbelievable with your host, Paul Bursey over here, Bill Burr over there. We got Andrew Themless, and of course, we have our injury reporter, Jake the Snake. Guys, what can I say? I went one in three, which puts me. 11 and a half games back of 500. I mean, to say I'm reeling is an understatement, but you know what?
Starting point is 00:00:38 We got a lot of time left. I'm not quitting just yet. Bill, what did you go this week? Three and one. Oh, Bill. All right. Somebody's saving the show. Jesus.
Starting point is 00:00:49 Well, dude, it was a shit show until the past two weeks. Past two weeks I went three and one. And before that, it was like, you know, a lot of one and three. This just been weird games, dude. It's just been weird But that doesn't excuse it Because as much as you get fucked Someone else got
Starting point is 00:01:05 Somebody else just won that bet So Yeah what it is is What I found this year Is nobody's that good And nobody's that bad Like everybody is like Except the Jets
Starting point is 00:01:17 All right Well I gotta I got a new name for those footballs That the field goal kickers are kicking I'm calling them the floaties Floaties I like that Give me a break
Starting point is 00:01:28 And that's just like the whole game right now is just fucking rigged for offense, offense, offense, offense, more scoring, more scoring, more scoring. It's insane. 22 seconds left. Plenty of time. Plenty of time, dude. That is the truest statement, dude.
Starting point is 00:01:48 It's like reverse parenting. All everybody says, go by quick, goes by quick, right? You fucking, this goddamn NFL football. plenty of this five seconds left plenty of time you know quick out that's a 72 yarder he was it in fucking 83 yarders in big practice like they were nothing dude 38 seconds left in a game is an eternity now it's it's crazy 100% right it's nuts i don't get it it's dude i'm gonna tell you what the noise especially when you have your bet one and then colin's work goes that there's plenty of time left you just like fuck you then he's right
Starting point is 00:02:27 Well, dude, you went three and one back-to-back weeks, which the show needed. But, dude, I got to tell you, Buffalo losing to Atlanta, Atlanta just every time Buffalo scored, Atlanta just took it to him, dude. I got to tell you something, the Falcons look good. That's what's weird. The Falcons look good. Then all of a sudden the chiefs look like they're fucking back against the lions. I can't see it.
Starting point is 00:02:52 Can't see it. Well, I think this week they're going to destroy the Raiders. because I think the NFL backed off the preferential treatment enough. And then last week against the Lions, guess how many penalties they committed? Jake the Snake, how many? Yeah, it's bringing Jake here. Big fat, zero.
Starting point is 00:03:12 Zero. Zero. They didn't hold anybody. There was no illegal hands to the face. There was no illegal motion, not one false start. I mean, dude, they were dialed in. Jake, you look like. Jake, you look like somebody's going to tell you to read a statement to your family
Starting point is 00:03:30 right now, do they? I know, dude. That fucking, the shadow on the back wall is brutal. I'm just waiting to see the shadow of a gun. What do we got, Jake? What do we got for injury reports this week? Well, we'll start off with the chiefs since we were talking about them, but their top receivers coming back from suspension.
Starting point is 00:03:50 He was guilty for a hidden run last year, so they suspended him six games. So he's coming back for the Raider game, just in time for the Chiefs to get right. And then there's a – Kyler Murray missed last week, so we're unsure if he's going to play. We'll have to kind of monitor it because there's only been one day of practice. But it sounds like he was back in practice at least. And the Rams will be without Pooka and Nakua. You know, he's off to have an incredible start. But he hurt his ankle against the Ravens.
Starting point is 00:04:21 And they have a bye. So they're probably going to – or they have a buy following week, so they're probably going to rest him. And then the last one I'll say is Cowboys and commanders play each other, and they should get their top receivers back, C.D. Lamb and Terry McLaur. So those are kind of the big ones, I mean, that I have written down. Jake, the Snake, best in the business. Jake, the snake, he just comes in and he just starts nailing it. You know, the question the man has answers.
Starting point is 00:04:48 Jake, you didn't stutter once. Hey, you know what? He's happy to do it. Nothing like a guy that likes his job. Hey Paul, you never work a day in your life Look at the kid comes on with a big smile He tore his meniscus and his ACL He'll be three weeks next
Starting point is 00:05:04 Yeah He's having so much fun looking at the injury reports He doesn't have time to go to IKEA And get some fucking furniture I mean this kid is fucking dialed in Paul All right Let's get into it I'm with my family right now
Starting point is 00:05:19 So I get it All right guys let's let's get into the picks Before we do the picks We got a shout out bed at mGM guys you know how to do it you go to your any device and you download the betmgm app and you use our code burr b you're all you got to do is put a minimum of ten dollars in and you place your first wager if the wager loses you'll get 1500 in bonus bets bet responsibly have fun we also have the first touchdown promo which means you pick a player in any NFL game to get the first touchdown and if they do you win but if they don't and in fact get the second touchdown you'll get your stack back you'll get your cash back uh there you you go bet responsibly use our code burr and have a little fun uh it is week number seven which is an odd week which means bill you have the honors my friend to take the first pick and guess what everybody don't look now bill burr eight and two the last two weeks no six and
Starting point is 00:06:12 two so six and two hey we went to public schools hey i mean let's know what you want Paul, why did you know how it looks like a fake background? Huh? Your house looks like a fake background. I had to, I couldn't do it outside today. That looks like some shit you just grabbed and stuck it behind you. I don't believe it. I don't know where you are, Paul, but, you know, I'm worried about you.
Starting point is 00:06:34 First, I was worried about Jake, but it was too, uh, Jake looks like he's on Al Jazeera right now. All right. Um, anyways, I'm not going to do. tell you where I'm at, but I need a hat on my bald head. Put it that way. All right, here we go. I got a new theory, everybody. I got a new theory, a new Thursday night theory. When it's a division rivalry game, they got four days. You know, I've been talking about this the last couple of weeks. I feel like you just take the points. The Bengals are at home. They got Joel Flacco coming in from a YMCA near you. To get under center. I mean, Aaron
Starting point is 00:07:18 Rogers is Aaron Rogers. He even looks good in the uniform with the Steelers. They're killing it, but like I just feel like they're simple game plans. They're simple game plans and it makes them come closer together. Division rivalry games are usually close. They see each other twice a year. Am I really
Starting point is 00:07:34 talking to you guys or am I trying to convince myself? I don't know. I'm taking the Bengals. Get in five and a half. All right. I like it. A tale of two Joe's. That's what the Bengals are. They're hung around against the back. on the last Sunday so I mean
Starting point is 00:07:50 Flacco The tail of two Joe's Fuck it, let's go What do we got, Paul? Come on, Paul, pick a winner Paul he's due All right, I'm too, hey, overdue Let me see Here, I don't like it, dude
Starting point is 00:08:07 I'm afraid I'm afraid of the list Oh, he's gambling scared everybody You hate to see it Come on, it's October This is the Top Gun moment Maverick's lost his fucking edge We're sitting there
Starting point is 00:08:21 I just can't see it You just can't see it You know what I'm going to take the New York Football Giants Getting seven against the Broncos They beat up the Eagles They beat a good Chargers team
Starting point is 00:08:33 If they don't have those stupid Fumbles against the Saints I think they win that game too But Jackson Dart and Cam Scataboo Got a little Got a little something going I like the points I could see Denver winning the game
Starting point is 00:08:47 by a field goal, but I think the Giants hang with them. I'm going to take the seven. I'm taking some points. I'm going to take my New York football giants. You see the sweatshirt. I'm excited about them, okay? Camp Scadaboo. Camp Scadaboo.
Starting point is 00:09:02 I went to high school with him. That's one of those names. Yeah. He's a... All right. Oh, dude, there's a lot of games I like this week. And for whatever reason, I'm going to pick this one. I like the Colts getting one and a half.
Starting point is 00:09:17 going into san diego um i just you know i've been watching i've been betting on them uh they got a great offensive line they're competitive and the charges what are they doing jake they coming back from injuries if they if they bottomed out with their injuries yeah injuries are pretty bad especially on the o line and um it's it's probably not to be resolved this week they might get Khalil Mack back on defense, but offensively, that offensive line is really, is in trouble. So, it's a scary game.
Starting point is 00:09:49 It's kind of interesting the Chargers are favored with all those injuries. So it's, um, that's going to, that could be a close game. Yeah, I know. It's like, what do they know? Is that going to come down to head coaching? Because I, Harbaugh is a better coach, but fuck it. Ah, shit.
Starting point is 00:10:04 What am I doing? I'm taking the Colts. Bill, you're on fire. You're on fire. You're on fire right now. It's all relative. Colts are five and one, you know. Sometimes you've got to rob the hot ham. Dude, by the way, let's talk about this for a second. The Colts are five and one with Daniel Jones when everybody wrote the kid off.
Starting point is 00:10:23 I mean, the kid's an MVP candidate right now. Yeah. How about this? If you play quarterback in New York the last couple seasons, you look like your career's over, you never should have had one, and then you leave. Aaron Rogers looks like Aaron Rogers again. Daniel Jones, come on, Paul.
Starting point is 00:10:39 You got to take that. You got to take that. I know, but, you know, Daniel Jones couldn't even fucking run in New York. He fell on his face. You know, Bill, you're kicking a man when he's down. The Sequin, I'm wearing my sweatshirt. No, no, no, no, no, no.
Starting point is 00:10:54 I'm going to tell you what. If I have to sit through fucking Nick fans during the NBA playoffs every year, acting like they don't know what the fuck has been going on for 53 years. And the New York sports fucking media bias is going to keep, dude, they show Nick fans,
Starting point is 00:11:11 Man's more than they show Celtics fan. You guys never take the hit, Paul. You guys never take the hit. It's a bum-ass place to be a fucking quarterback the last two seasons. Exhibit A. Daniel Jones. Exhibit B.
Starting point is 00:11:25 Fucking Aaron Rogers, an exhibit from fucking MTV's Pimp My Ride. Case closed. Look, I can't argue it. Literally, Exhibit the rapper would have had the same fucking numbers as those guys the last.
Starting point is 00:11:41 How bad you guys offensive lines? All right. Well, here's what I'm going to do with my... Hey, just listen. Paul, I'm just fucking with you. No, listen. You're right. You're right.
Starting point is 00:11:54 And then he agrees with me, and I feel even worse. I'm going to... Nothing's like when you make your point to someone and they go, no, no, you're right. You went John Candy on me. Go ahead, you know? I'm an easy target. I like me. You know what?
Starting point is 00:12:09 Because I'm the real article. I just watch. that documentary, dude. It was fucking one of the greatest and saddest thing. Colin Hanks murdered that. Yeah. John Candy. Yeah. Oh, my God. He killed it.
Starting point is 00:12:21 Dude, John Candy. John Candy was such an unbelievable animal. Animal. Uncle just actor. Can you just give it up to him? Because they keep cutting the interviews during it. They just go like, you know, people like a fat guy. He's just sitting there going like, how many movies do I have to crush?
Starting point is 00:12:39 Yeah. that's why I like that one thing Jonah Hill did where the guy was just like yeah dude so like as far as like being a heavy actor and Jonah Hill just goes dude do you got any other questions man that are like and he just totally fucking went at the guy and he's like do you have any other
Starting point is 00:12:55 because that's got to be like after a while being the fat actor it's got to just weigh on you you know what I mean it's got to be like all right man I get it really he just did that what first of all you laid into fat you go after a lot being the fat after then you go it's got a way on you did you really just do all of that by accident i swear to god i did it's like you were on
Starting point is 00:13:18 jona's side let's tell a good Jonah's story before we move ahead have you seen it with the morgan freeman one uh no he tells the story he was working with morgan freeman his first day they're sitting in a car they're shooting in this car all day Morgan doesn't talk to him at all so he thinks all right well Well, he's got all this dialogue. It's an important part of the movie. Maybe that's not why he's talking to me. They fucking rap on the day, and before they leave,
Starting point is 00:13:45 Morgan looks at him and sings like the banana song with his name. He just looks over him. First time he talks to him all day, he goes, Jonah, Jonah, Bono, Bono. You saw that? Yeah, I saw that. And then he finishes it. And he's like, all right, because now do me.
Starting point is 00:13:58 He goes, what? He goes, say my name. He's like, Morgan, Morgan, Morgan. And he does the whole thing. And then he gets out of the car and he never talk to him for the rest of the movie. what is that what is it like a test like if he didn't do it yeah that's all right um all right guys for my second pick look how many games uh jake has the browns won uh it's either one or two um i'm gonna take i'm gonna take the browns over the dolphins dude the dolphins are just
Starting point is 00:14:34 the dolphins are i think the coach is done I think they're done. I think they're going to be sellers during the trade deadline instead of buyers. I think it's, yeah, I like the three-point spread in Cleveland. And the dolphins have just shown nothing but disappointment. So I'm going to take the Cleveland Browns at home to win the game by a field goal. Dolphins have been covering, dude. That's what you're going to bet.
Starting point is 00:15:02 That's my money. I don't know what you're talking about. They just won a couple of games. I'm crazy They're still one and five They're one and five I thought they won two games They just cover
Starting point is 00:15:12 Hey Paul Both things can be true I fucking I fucking hate How everybody says that now All right I'm gonna take I don't know
Starting point is 00:15:24 I don't give a fuck Paul I'm shooting from the From the freckled hip this week I'm gonna take the Saints Getting five points With the Bears I liked what I saw last week Against the Patriots
Starting point is 00:15:33 I liked their quarterback They got the Who's there fucking great running back he was doing some good things there i i like the saints i don't think the saints as much as everybody's trash them they're they're much better than their record they got one win yeah they're competitive all right i could tell by the fucking just absolute silence on that end that that was a wild pick all right all right fuck you guys i don't need you anyway i don't need you guys support my picks um um uh
Starting point is 00:16:06 dude this is going to be i'm an idiot i saw the saints one game this year all of a sudden i fucking know who they are dude if i go oh and four three times in seven weeks i may just hang it up guys it's been a great run i'm crying i just want to thank mgm no you like that athlete like back in the day people got old in one off season it was like you could play and then all of a sudden like right around 35 36 you just couldn't play anymore And it was embarrassing. You just, fuck it. It was embarrassing.
Starting point is 00:16:41 Dude, retirements before steroids and fucking aerobics or whatever the fuck these kids are doing nowadays, Tybo. Like, the end of your career, if there was a, you had to pay attention to it or most of them, it was really embarrassing. Well, look, dude. I mean, you know it's me and you know I'm coming back. That's what I do. Come on, man. come on dude it's me four times in a row what are we talking about here um
Starting point is 00:17:11 dude i i've never seen you reeling like this paul this is not you paul has always been playoff talks it's been a rough month right well you beat the book four years in a fucking row i know you're coming out of this uh it's like the chief i feel like i'm in a house you know the chiefs are coming
Starting point is 00:17:35 back. Bill, I'm in a hospital bed and you're sitting next to me holding my hand going, you'll be all right. I got a tear coming back. It's the Brian Piccolo story. God forbid. All right. Jaguars are getting three.
Starting point is 00:17:51 They're coming off a loss, but dude, I mean, Pooka's out, right? Dude, I looked at that game, too. Yeah, it's in London as well. It's in London. I fucking hate those London games. Me too. as far as like betting on them like it's just a stupid vibe we're americans we don't go to other countries
Starting point is 00:18:14 i i hate the point three with i hate the three the point three the point five with the seahawks i hate um i heard that hate too you really fucking hit the tea on that yeah no i hate that um dude this is a tough tough week man You know what they should call the guys that handicapped games in Vegas? They should call them the cunts. You know, it's respectful and it's accurate. Give me the Jacksonville Jaguars, getting three in London, coming off of a loss. I, you know what, I like that.
Starting point is 00:18:56 I think that if they're a good team, they have a good record, they have, you know, I'm going to take the Jags to bounce back this week. I hate how fast you just did that. You know, like, when you're not ready to order and you hope the person before you is going to, like, fucking... Host a salmon. Yeah? You're hoping they're going to do that.
Starting point is 00:19:13 You're just fucking... Let me get a cheeseburger, french fries, well done, and a Coke. Okay, sir, what are you having? Then you're going to be like, um, for my fourth and final game. Um, who do I like? There was some... There was a couple of things that I saw here. That fucking Chiefs Raiders game, 12 points.
Starting point is 00:19:32 What kind of asshole bets on that game? That game jumped up, too. It opened at 10, so people are clearly all over the Chiefs. Who doesn't love the Chiefs at 10? Yeah, exactly. You know, you find out where your real friends are when it's at 12th. Where did everybody go then? What's the Raiders record, Jake?
Starting point is 00:19:56 I believe they have, they won this week, too. They probably have two wins. Here, let's say. Yeah, they have two and four. Two and four. Two and four, thank you. I got a question for you. The fucking cowboys can't even beat the goddamn Panthers.
Starting point is 00:20:12 Embarrassing. All right. Now they're at home against the commanders, and they're only getting two points. Yeah. Like, what's going on? I was looking at that game, too. Like, I don't understand. Yeah, drop two.
Starting point is 00:20:27 Strange. Four before? It's like two and a half, but like, you know, nothing crazy, but still. Is there a reason? why we get the lines when they're cuntier but where will we win all of this stuff well this stuff was happening chiefs at 10 earlier in the week they open a monday for the real what what what what what what beers do you have on tap sorry just paul that browns i don't know why i don't know why what's that Andrew that browns line moved to two and a half so give you the two
Starting point is 00:20:59 and a half usually we record on thursday mornings i usually go by those lines so um yeah it's it's two and a half so beautiful the falcons 49ers both of mine say minus two oh that's got to be 49ers got to be getting points with all those injuries type of hang on let me just double check that that Niners
Starting point is 00:21:19 is yeah it's uh yeah nineers uh minus two that's that's where niners are favored yeah nineers are wow yeah that's crazy which is very strange after last week's yeah Fred Warner is out for the year am I going to do it?
Starting point is 00:21:36 Am I going to go into the DMZ? My DMZ of the NFL, am I going to go, am I going to bet on the Falcons? Am I really going to do this? Yeah, you know what? Because the game's going to be on. I can ask that game will be televised in my area. So I will, I'm going to take the Falcons getting to.
Starting point is 00:22:00 Oh. Getting to it. Oh, my God, with those. floaty footballs they've been kicking around i like it i like my chances i'm going to take the falcons paul i was so i just i thought i had this week figured out in uh somewhere along there i just realized uh i didn't we'll see all right for my fourth and final pick i think i uh dude the lions are coming off that loss the lions are coming off of that loss against the chiefs and they're home this is paul verzi's bread and butter they looked pissed it's five and a half i know baker mayfield
Starting point is 00:22:41 and the buccaneers are really good right now but the lions have to dare i say war back of mayfield MVP i know that's what i was going to look up it's funny you brought this up because i definitely wanted to ask you guys i was trying to pull up the odds um for baker mbp well i think what verzi said earlier like nobody's good nobody's bad this year so i mean why not him tampa's five and one with all with that with all those injuries and what are the lines five and five and one or four and two they're four and two yeah yeah it's a test for the lines because the two best teams they play have been losses but they've been looked good against the bad teams i should have taken the fucking seahawks i'm an asshole
Starting point is 00:23:23 it's funny i took them i took them in real life and i brought to put them on the show i was so bad but yeah um i like them a lot last week they're good they're really good that's a good game paul you know what three and a half nah that the point five scared me right when i saw it that the point five has got vagus smiling at me you're smiling down the barrel i know my friends in kansas city yeah um dude i'm gonna do something right now
Starting point is 00:23:55 because i need i need to mix things up i'm taking a lot of dogs i'm gonna actually take baker mayfield and the Buccaneers getting five and a half in Detroit. I like it. I'm taking the points and Baker. They've only lost one game. I think the Lions win the game by a field goal. I'm taking the bucks.
Starting point is 00:24:17 I like, Paul, you got the yips. You just got to eat. Dude, I'm like Simone Bile when she fucking was afraid to cannonpult in the air. I just, I, dude, I got the yips, dude. Dude, that was one of the most understanding yips of all time. Totally. Jumping up, spinning around, blah. Yeah, one day you're going to get old enough to be like,
Starting point is 00:24:36 the fuck am I doing? It's inevitable. I'm like... I mean, I'm shell-shocked. I mean, I'm 11 and a half back. I don't know what happened. I mean, I'm going 0 and 4 every other week here. I mean, this is...
Starting point is 00:24:50 But I'm going to... Dude, I'm going to tell you what, it's going to be triumphant when I'm done. Right. I'm going to Frank Reich this shit. What game? What game, Frank? Buffalo versus Houston. There you go.
Starting point is 00:25:02 35 nothing he came back from against the Oilers. I'd never forget that game. All right, those are our picks, dude. All right, let's do Monday Night Special. Here we go. There's two Monday Night games. Two Monday Night games. We have...
Starting point is 00:25:18 I fucking hate that there's two Monday Night games and they play them at the same time. I know. It's like it's a one-hour difference, which fucking sucks. And both games are good. Yeah. All right. Let the Monday Nets fan. win some money for you we already got you twice no fucking go for three no uh we did money line
Starting point is 00:25:42 on both those games and uh yeah they both lost no no but we've won twice though this year yes we have yes we have and we can win again right here that's right there you go jake yeah trying to think something positive here well which game would you guys prefer i mean Detroit Tampa seems like the better game but um houston houston uh uh seattle will be um nice physical defensive game um for the old school folks um well i like baker mayfield to throw one for sure uh yeah yeah okay i like jared goff to throw one and then you just want to do money line you just money line pick who he thinks win in the game i think the buccaneers are going to win let's do it let's go let's go You don't even want the points?
Starting point is 00:26:33 Huh? You don't even want the points with the bucks? You just want to take the points? You want to take the points? This is where we have a little cush. You can even get it up to six or seven. Like I said, dude, I went to summer school every year. I was just giving away five and a half points.
Starting point is 00:26:45 All right. So let's do the buccaneers. I'll take the money line and the underdog. That's how fucking confident I. Me and Bill are on such different emotional wavelengths right now. Like I'm afraid of everything. And Bill's like, I'm, like, Bill's like. Oh, no.
Starting point is 00:26:58 I'm John Stark, dude. I'm just putting it up. I'm just putting it up. You're the guy in the casino that won 30 grand last night, so you're like, yeah, let's go to the high stakes for a little while. 130 grand, I blew 40 on hookers. I'll give a fuck. All right.
Starting point is 00:27:13 Okay, so we'll do the Tampa Bay Buccaneers getting five and a half, Baker to throw one, Jared Goff to throw one. Love it. That all makes sense. Okay, there you go. That's the Monday Night Special. You guys have our picks. app. Use our code B-U-R-R, put a minimum of $10 in. And after your first wager, if that loses,

Starting point is 00:28:55 he would always rush in on it, and then the ball would, go over his head and then for whatever reason when he turned around to run after it he'd throw his glove and his hat on the ground to go get why? I don't know what I think he was trying to
