Hey guys, it's us The Jonas Brothers. I'm Joe. I'm Kevin. And I'm Nick. And guess what? We created our own podcast called, Hey Jonas.

We invented a podcast? Well, we didn't invent it. We just contributed to it. We're the first people to do podcasts. We get to ask other people questions because we're sick and tired of being asked questions. Well, sick and tired is a strong way to put it. But, you know, tired and sick. Listen to Hey Jonas on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast.

Just listen. We don't care where you hear it. Another podcast from. some SNL late-night comedy guy, not quite. Unhumor me with Robert Smygel and Friends. Me and hilarious guests from Bob Odenkirk to David Letterman help make you funnier. This week, my guest, SNL's Mikey Day and head writer, Streeter Seidel,

help an a cappella band with their between songs banter. Where does your group perform? We do some retirement homes. Those people are starving for banter. Listen to humor me with Robert Smigel and Friends on the I-Heart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. What's up, fam? Isaiah Thomas.

And I'm C.J. Toledano. It's our favorite time of the year on our podcast, Point Game, the playoffs. We're digging into the biggest surprises of the season. And I'm looking back on some of my greatest playoff moments. If we didn't talk ever again, I was part of you. You just understood. That's how personal it got. Wow.

Then after that game seven, Marquis come until he's like, you know I love you, dog. You know, it's all love. This was just playoffs. This was just basketball. So listen to Point Game on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Most people out here think that taking care of one another is important. And most people would step up for a neighbor going through a tough time.

Most people around here help out friends and family when they need it. But the funny thing is, most of us won't look for help when we need it. Talk to someone if you're struggling with mental health. Because most people out here really care. Find more information at loveyourmind today.org. That's loveyourmindtay.org. Brought to you by the Huntsman Mental Health Institute and the Ad Council. Welcome to the favorites, the podcast, part of the volume podcast network.

I am Chad Milman of the Action Network. Today I'm joined, as always, by my co-host, my companion, my compadre, my DFF professional better, Simon Hunter. Hello, Simon. Chad, how we doing? We had a great time with Warren on Tuesday. We went through potential changes to playoff seatings. We went through tush-push.

We went through the benefits of rest. both from a betting point of view and from a one loss point of view. But we dug very, very deep into the teams in this upcoming season that are getting the best of the rest advantage. And how that's indicating which teams we might like the most when it comes to winning the division, win totals, futures odds, et cetera. Let's dig in a little bit deeper with our friend Warren Sharp. Warren, you brought up the Niners. and Brock Purdy just signed this contract for $53 million a year. And the Niners historically have been successful

because they've generally kept their costs under control and they've kept their quarterback costs under control specifically. While this is an outsized contract, it's not like a break-the-bank for a quarterback contract. This year, when you look at the Niners from a rest advantage, and we've said earlier, they've been getting screwed on rest advantages for the past three years. And I do think it really came back to haunt them last year with players going down again and again and again and again.

You look at the Niners, how do you position them in terms of rest? Because Simon and I have talked a lot about the Niners as being a team that we like as a futures bet. Yeah. So the other thing, too, you mentioned all those players going down. The one guy who should have probably gone down but didn't is a dog, Fred Warner, who broke his ankle in week four. and played 100% of the snaps the next seven straight games, did not miss a game for the rest of the season, even though the Niners only won six games

that were eliminated from the playoffs. So if he with his, and by the way, makes the Pro Bowl again, and just signed a contract to make him the highest pay linebacker. Well, well deserved. I mean, but to your point, where is all the money coming from? And the 49ers are one of those teams that's very top heavy. They have a lot of, I'd say a lot. They have more studs than men.

teams do and they're paying those studs what they deserve. So then they're going to have to get by with better players that are playing on their rookie deals to try to get a 53-man roster that is talented enough top the bottom that can withstand the rigors of an NFL season and produce success. The Niners have been generally solid when their guys are out on the field together. But I think last season, when you're talking about like Ayuk and Debo and CMC and Kittle, those guys were on the field with Brock Purdy, I want to say less than 40 snaps or something because of all of those injuries. And so when they're missing guys,

that's when it becomes more difficult for Kyle Shanahan to elevate the rest of the players. And it makes a lot of sense. Kyle is such a genius when it comes to designing offense. But he's taking advantage. He's building everything into, I've got CMC here. Here's all the things I can do with CMC. Let's design unique things for CMC plus Kittle over here.

And we're going to work off of this. we're going to use play action, whatever the case might be. And then when those guys aren't there and the players that are replacing them don't have the same level of skill set, Kyle's working much, many more steps behind than most other offenses are able to because they don't have such unique game plans designed to such unique talented players. I mean, Kyle Eusecheck and George Kittle, two of the most unique players at their positions in the NFL that can do so much. The Niners, number one, we start with something that doesn't even involve rest. and that's just their general schedule. They play the easiest schedule of any team in the NFL

because they had that rare, horrible season from a record's perspective. They haven't played a schedule like this in a while. You know, they haven't had a year where they've won only six games in a while. This is a team that's going to the NFC championship more often than they're having a losing record. So this team has been successful.

Now they get an easy schedule. Now their rest schedule. I've got them as the fourth easiest net rest edge schedule of any team this year. And if I look at some of the details here on the Niners, I rank them fifth best in total net rest edge. They don't have any massive edges, but they do play four games with more rest than their opponent, only two games with less rest than their opponent. And to Simon's point, and if you guys are on board with the 49ers, if they get their main players healthy, this team is a solid team. Everybody loves to hate Kyle Shaniam, but the key

to me is this, and I said this before the draft, if they continue to botch their drafts, which they've done a little bit more than I think 49ers fans would like, that is why their team isn't getting over the hump, in my opinion. They need to hit. They needed to hit is a secret team that I felt really needed to hit in this year's draft to then be able to provide that lower end talent that's going to need to play some snaps when they're paying all those bigger named guys. So I've got higher expectations than most, I think, for the San Francisco 49ers because of their rest schedule, because of the strength of their schedule. But they're going to need this draft class to impact their 2025 season if they're going to get to where they need to get. I feel like paying Brock Purdy is fine because of what he has been able to deliver and how well he fits.

He's obviously atypical. He's not a prototypical quarterback. He doesn't have the size and the stature back in the pocket. So people are going to say, well, this guy's not worth it. But for Kyle Shanahan, he's worth it. And so in this offense with Kyle, I'm fine with paying Brock Purdy. You just have to build up that bottom end of the roster. Simon, now that we've seen the schedule, who they're playing, we've seen the win totals.

We were talking a lot about the Niners before we saw any of this. It was sort of based on their team being bad last year and getting healthy and what their odds were. Has your opinion changed or has it strengthened? what's your status right now with the Niners? Definitely strengthened because it was what we, we already knew the teams they were going to play. We just knew how they were going to lay the schedule out for them. And then once you see the schedule, like Warren talked about it, it's like the dream.

Them and the bills, to me, are two teams that really jumped out where the schedule really worked in their favor. And in the sense that this 49ers thing, we talked about it and Warren just alluded to it, they needed to hit in these drafts because they've had to pay all these big time players. And they're having to make it all work, Chad. And this, this to me feels like a really tight. window here because we could either see them be a really good team this season or one or two more key injuries away, key positions and that it all falls apart, right? Because they have not drafted well. And, you know, we've seen teams like Detroit, Philadelphia, like these other teams in their

conference that have drafted well, right, hitting on big time rookies that have progressed into year two. And that's something that's been lacking a little bit with that four and honors team. So to me, paying party, we knew it was coming. The way the schedule broke, all of it, it's just lined up for this team. Like if McCaffrey's right, you know, you got solid back coaching that defense. Like it feels like it's all lined up for this team. And we know the Rams historically get off slow. So it's going to be all lined up for them. Like get out to a fast start, stay healthy. I mean, this is easy to be a team that can make another run. And that's why I mean you talked about them before the season started. Just they fit the exact same bill. The Eagles fit the

year before. The year from hell, tons of doubt from the public perception. We took the early value the number already moved up so we got good value on that number you better early now everything warrants telling me it's making me feel good where it's like i want to hear other people saying they have the same view as i do which is grading them out as a very easy schedule do you have the latest number on the niners super bowl odds well i ask my next question see if you guys can look it up or if someone in the chat can tell me what it is so they're so they're basically when when we we opened it up chat What did you think we got it? Was it 20 to 1?

I think it was 20 to 1. So that's what I think. We originally got it 20 to 1. I'm seeing most books now 15 and 16 to 1. So again, not being crazy, but still, that's what we do it for. Like that plus 400 is a really nice something to hold on to. I would not be afraid to still bet them at 15 or 16 to 1. That's fair.

And I would not be surprised if come the start of the regular season, you know, I love to do that round robin of the teams that are, I think, 12 to 1 or less. I bet the Niners, as the season goes on and more and more people take a bite of that 15 to 16 to 1, especially after listening to the show, because we move numbers, that it's going to get under that 12 to 1 range. It'll be, you know, interestingly, I think it'll be the Lions, the Eagles, Niners who are probably the three teams from the NFC with the shortest odds.

that'll be part of that round robin. You mentioned the Buffalo Bills. Buffalo Bills. The Athletic did a story about this yesterday or two days ago. There are numbers for literally spreads for every game, right? We saw Raybon already put in a team total for the Eagles in the first game of the year in the app. Simon and I have bet the Cowboys at plus seven and plus 240 again. the Eagles in the first game of the year.

But there are literally point spreads for every single game, for every single week of the NFL season right now. The Buffalo Bills, the athletic, wrote about this the other day. The only team in the NFL that are favored in every single game, I put this in the favorites podcast Slack channel last night to make sure Matt Mitchell was aware, and he was not in a good place with this. But Simon, you think there were.

of that. Oh, yeah. It's, they're worthy of it, but I mean, Warren's probably the same I, mind that I have that Raven's opening week. That's a gift. You're getting Lamar as a dog. It's not the playoffs. Like the playoffs, I got why the bills had the number they had against Lamar. This is totally different. This is week one. Bill's historically come out slow as well. And then we've seen it with Josh Allen that, you know, he rallies the team and carries them with so much early in the season when the guys are just figuring out. But to me, they're, the interest part of their schedule shots. They play all the big dogs. They're playing the Eagles, a team that Josh Allen's never beat, and he's a favorite against them because he is at home, and he should be.

It's interesting for them, though, that, you know, last year they snuck up on us because they have 70 million in debt cap. We thought it was going to be a rebuilding year. This year, it seems like everyone's on board, right? They're what, minus 275, their division. They're big time Super Bowl bet for a lot of bookmakers right now. That's one of their biggest teams bet on right now by the general public. So the fact that this, schedule broke the way it did, I love this for this Bill's team. So yeah, if you're, if you're hedging and putting a lot of Bill's mafia, you know, in your, your divisional parlays, I can't hate it right now. They just seem like a team that's going to easily get to

11, 12 wins the way the schedule is set up for them, Chad. I might do a Bill's Niners Super Bowl matchup bet right now before the number on the Niners drops even more, get better our odds on that. What do you think of that, Simon? I love it. Thank you. I like when you agree with me. It makes me feel vindicated and validated. Warren, give us your bills take. Yeah, I was going to throw in on the Buffalo Bills. Part of the reason that they're favorite in every single game is their four toughest games that they play this year are in Buffalo. So they play the Ravens, they play the Chiefs, they play the Eagles, and they play the Bengals. Those aren't easy games, but they're all in Buffalo. And so that definitely helps the Buffalo Bills. And then if you're talking about,

team that needs to exceed their win total. Obviously, you want to play the toughest games at home where you're most likely to have a little bit of extra edge with your crowd. Easy games on the road are never a bad thing. And the Buffalo Bills play the number one easiest strength of schedule of opponents on the road of this entire season. Their road schedule is the easiest. So that's a positive. The only negative to throw in there is that the bills from week 10 through week 18, they're playing four games at a rest disadvantage, only one game at a rest advantage. They are minus 10 days in net rest from week 10 onwards, which is the third worst of any team in the NFL down the stretch. But these games are week 10 versus the dolphins. They're at a rest

disadvantage of three days. Week 14 versus the Cincinnati Bengals, they're at a rest disadvantage of three days. Week 15 against the Patriots, the very next week, they play the Patriots, are off of a buy. We just mentioned, while buys aren't great, it hasn't been as big of a benefit to most teams nowadays as it was back in the day. And then they play the Eagles week 17 at a one-day rest disadvantage. So that rest isn't beautiful, but everything else with the way the schedule is falling for them, I think is really nice for the Buffalo Bells. And the other thing is if you just look visually, I'm a very visual learner. I like looking at things visually.

When I'm looking at the Buffalo Bill's schedule, they have like clear tent poles on their schedule. Week one, Sunday night football, Baltimore Ravens at home. Week nine, halfway through the season, Kansas City Chiefs at home, two weeks off after a by week. They play the Carolina Panthers in the middle there. So they got plenty of time to rest and get healthy and focus on that since Kansas City Chiefs game.

And then week 17, second to the last week of the season, they play at home against the Philadelphia Eagles after playing the Cleveland Browns. So again, you're hoping that when you play the Cleveland Browns, when you play the Carolina Panthers, you're putting up some points early in that game. You're pulling out your guys a little bit early. You're getting healthy, rested, and focused on those other big games that you have. But there's only three of them, beginning, middle, and end of the schedule. So I do think it sets up very well for the Buffalo Bills.

But it seems guys, every single year, it's like, if not now, when? like for the Buffalo Bulls. It's always like, when is the time that they're finally going to get over the hump here? So maybe it's this year, but we've been saying that for several years now. Look, we say that about the bills. We say it about the Niners.

Hey, it's us, the Jonas Brothers. And guess what? We have some big news. What's the news, huge news? We created our own podcast called, Hey, Jonas. We invented a podcast. Well, we didn't invent it.

We just contributed to a... We're the first people to do podcasts. Pretty, yeah, pretty wide range of podcasts. But this one's extra special. So how do we actually come up with a name Hey Jonas, guys? I honestly don't remember. I think it was on a call about what we should call it. We were thinking I'm originally calling it one of the early names of our band before Jonas Brothers.

This is how you guys remember it going down? Yes. I have a very different memory of this. We were talking about a thing, a bit for the podcast, where people could call in and say, hey Jonas. And then I wrote down on my little notes. pad, Hey Jonas, and offered it up as a potential title for the podcast. But thanks for remembering that, guys. Listen to Hey Jonas on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast.

Just listen. We don't care where you hear it. Another podcast from some SNL late-night comedy guy, not quite. Unhumor me with Robert Smigel and Friends. Me and hilarious guests from Bob Odenkirk to David Letterman help make you funnier. This week, my guest, SNL's Mikey Day and head writer Streeter Seidel. help an a cappella band with their between songs banter. Where does your group perform? We do some retirement homes.

The French Open is one of the toughest tests in tennis. And I know firsthand because I competed there myself. I'm Renee Stubbs. And on the Renee Stubbs tennis podcast, I'm breaking down everything happening at Roland Garris. every match, every upset, and what it really takes to win on Clay.

Jen she went. I mean, she went down in three to Rabakina, but I'm delighted. She's an outsider to win the French for me. And she likes Clay. Listen, Lena Rubakina is arguably the best player in the world right now, and I actually can win on any surface. Because if she's serving, well, good luck. Consider this your court side seat to the French Open.

Listen to the Renee Stubbs Tennis Podcast on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts. Presented by Capital One, founding partner of I Heart Women's Sports. What's up, fam? It's Isaiah Thomas. And I'm CJ Toledano, and our podcast Point Game is about defying the odds. Like LeBron heading into the playoffs without Luca and Austin Reed. And finding ways to win no matter what. He's the smartest player to ever play the game.

His IQ is at a level that we've never seen before. And he knows without Luca and Austin Reeves, I got to manipulate the game. We get a player's perspective on the challenges of the playoffs. I think Joker's going to be exhausted this series because when they don't have Rudy in the lineup, he has to really guard guys like Nas Reid. He has to guard Julius Randall. And then he has to give us everything he gives us

on the night-to-night basis on offense. And when IT's friends stop by, like Quentin Richardson, we dive into some playoff history too. Steve Nash would get that thing. That man, hell get the flying. He running up the court, licking his fingers, why he got the ball like, After you go through a training camp with that, I said, you figure it out real quick.

Get your ass up and down the court, and you're going to get the ball. So listen to Point Game on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Warren, you said the magic words, Carolina Panthers in a look-ahead spot for the Buffalo Bills. Oh, my God. I feel like that's week eight. I feel like we got to bet that game right now. Do you know what I mean? It just feels like that's candy.

We got to take advantage of that. Yeah, I love to. There's so many things that just break Buffalo's way with that scourge. That Eagles game, Chad, in week 17, it's in between two Washington Commander games. So, like, again, just catching the Eagles in a bad spot when they're going to be really focused on their division, obviously, if the commanders be the team that everyone talks about them being the season.

So it just felt like it's all breaking Buffalo. way and you're right like they're a team that you know this window for them it's going to be what two to three years here if they do this rebuild right like they're they've kind of gone a new direction where you know the offense it's really about you know cooking josh allen doing josh allen things then defensively they're paying all their young guys so i'm really excited to see that with direction of this team this builds the next two to three years because yeah it feels like every year we're going to be saying is this it like is this final the year this curse franchise gets over the hump and there's one guy to do it, it's going to be Superman himself, Josh Allen. He's got it all. Chad,

the last year. He was an inch short. This year, we'll see if he gets that extra inch and makes his way to the Super Bowl. What do we think of early season buys versus late season buys? You mentioned the Bears. I feel like the Bears are getting screwed here. But how does that play out historically, Warren? Well, more teams now have been able to request. their preference in terms of when they take a buy, all the international teams are allowed to request exactly when they want to buy. And then other teams can kind of file a request in the NFL. It wasn't long ago, I mean, I guess it was.

We're getting old now. But like in the early 2000s, when they first did division realignment, there was four teams that had to buy every single week from week three to week 10. And that was it, four, four, four, four every single week. Now we've got four teams in week, four teams in week 14 that have a buy. And we've got four teams in week 12 that had a buy. And we got a couple teams in week 11 that had to buy. Last year was a little bit more skewed to the end of the season.

We had six teams in week 12 that had to buy and six teams in week 14 that had a buy. This year we don't have that. The last two years, each of the last two years, just as a little note for anybody who cares. Zero buy weeks, week 13. and they try to get everybody playing on that Thanksgiving Day weekend. So they don't have buys, then they have buys the week before that. They have buys the week after that and then it ends. But there have been some teams with the 17 game schedule that and only one team getting a first round buy in the playoffs that have done some homework internally and thought to themselves, it might be more advantageous to have a buy later on in the season.

And we wouldn't want to have a buy, let's say, week four, week five, week six. And then I have to go all through the playoffs, not have a shot at like being the first overall seed and then playing all the way through until the Super Bowl, having had no extra week off since, you know, early October. Many teams are trying to avoid that by requesting a buy a lot later. But then you just have to survive until, you know, week 12, week 14. So I don't know that we have enough data because they just started doing these week 14, Sorry, yeah, week 14 buys.

The first season they started doing that was 2021. So we don't have a whole lot of data to show how much that helps these teams yet. But it definitely has been a growing trend with the extra game that they added to the schedule of some teams requesting to have buys later in the year. Yeah, you look at how physical these games are and the way these players get beat up. and you really marvel at the fact so many years went by without buy weeks. And these guys were just going week after week after week for 16 game schedules. I'm not talking about the 60s and 70s when it was 14 games. Like the buy is probably saving years on people's careers because it is a,

Simon, this is a brutal, brutal game. Yeah, and we talk all the time too about. how there's no mystery here. The reason that one or two seeds usually make a far run in the playoffs, right, easy because they're going to rest the guy early or they get that by week. Like, it's not like, remember years ago it used to be,

well, we don't know if we want to rest players because we don't want them to lose the rhythm. That's kind of died out now, especially with the extended season that we've had, where teams are just, no, like, we just need to make it to that, get the rest. I mean, my favorite ever would always be Detroit last year, right? They didn't take off the final week of the season

because Campbell is a psycho. He wanted to lose that rhythm. They had to buy a week, and then they couldn't find it against Washington. So, you know, that is something that does happen. But, yeah, my view of it, like my most interesting takeaway, especially with what we're talking about here, is that, you know, there's certain teams that you want to look out. They're not on the main stage.

Like last year, a team that jumped out that I got really wrong was the Vikings. The Vikings had basically no prime time games. There are a team that pretty standard schedule, chat, always 1 o'clock, maybe 430s, but they had a pretty simple setup. A team this year that really jumps out to me, it's a unicorn team is Tennessee, a team that took the number one quarterback, number one pick, zero games outside of that window. I don't even think they gave them a Thursday game, Chad, Tennessee. So this is a team in a very unique scenario of very simple, all-season, 1 o'clock, 4-30, Sunday.

I love that for a team that I'm very interested in this upcoming season in Tennessee. So those are the type of things around. Like, again, once I get Warren's book, I'll dive into his information on Tennessee because that jumped out to me right away of huge, huge advantage, a team that no one's talking about, Boren Cam Ward, barely talked about in the draft. The scheduling guys reflected that, giving them zero primetime games. I could not believe when I saw it. Well, Tennessee and New Orleans are the only teams without prime time games this year.

Simon, you and I have talked in abundance about the Tennessee Titans at 8 to 1 in the AFC South where honestly anything can happen and there's no reason why they couldn't be the Texans of two years ago. I'm glad you mentioned Warren's book so I can remind people. Go to sharp dot football, use promo code action, get his preseason Bible for $1.1. That's ridiculous. I mean, you're basically giving away the best preseason football book that there is. Warren, you should be ashamed of yourself. You should be ashamed to yourself. I don't want to even promote the book.

You did a great job with that. I appreciate that. I just want to get on my soapbox for one second about the buy weeks and just say one more thing about these buy weeks. Teams care about when their by week is and they're trying to focus on it. And we know there are 17 games and we know that only one team has. has a buy in the playoffs. Teams need to play every single game that they play a little bit more focused on the fact that if we're up big, we can take our starters out and they avoid all the wear and tear.

Injuries are going to happen league-wide. You never know when a player is going to get injured. But what you do know is that they're more likely to be injured if they're playing 100% of their snaps because the game is close all the way to that final whistle. The 2022 Philadelphia Eagles were a prime example of this, jumping out to big leads early in games so they could rest their guys. They could stay healthier in the season. They made it all the way in Super Bowl.

Obviously, we know it didn't end the way that it did just this past year. But the Philadelphia Eagles are a great example. More teams need to be aggressive early in games to jump out to leads, to be up at halftime, to put games to bed by the middle of the third quarter so they can rest these guys to get through the season. I don't know why it's not a bigger focus. Teams want to be ahead. Their number one priority is being ahead.

at the final whistle after 60 minutes. Their priority should be to be up by double digits entering the fourth quarter. That would help their players stay a lot healthier throughout the course of the season. And I wish more teams cared about that than they do. Look, you're preaching to the choir, Warren, because that would also mean a lot more backdoor covers. So everybody wins. Start wrestling your starters, NFL coaches, Warren Sharp.

Listen to humor me with Robert Smigel and Friends on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. What's up fam? It's Isaiah Thomas. And I'm C.J. Toledano. It's our favorite time of the year on our podcast, Point Game, the playoffs. We're digging into the biggest surprises of the season. And I'm looking back on some of my greatest playoff moments. If we didn't talk ever again, I was harmed. You just understood. That's how personal it got. Wow. Then after that game seven, Mark keep coming to. He's like, you know I love you, dog. You know it's all love. This was just playoffs. This was just basketball. So listen to Point Game on the Iheart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast.
