SUPER BOWL 57! | Running Up The Score (2/11/23)
Saturday Feb 11, 2023
Saturday Feb 11, 2023
- Super Bowl 57
- Super Bowl Betting Trends
- In the history of the National Football League, just six quarterbacks who led the NFL in passing yards have also played in the Super Bowl. That list showcases some of the greatest field generals ever, including Dan Marino (Super Bowl XIX), Kurt Warner (Super Bowl XXXVI), and Rich Gannon (Super Bowl XXXVII). Tom Brady (Super Bowl XLII and Super Bowl LII) and Peyton Manning (Super Bowl XLVIII). 0-6
- Wagerers should also know that in five of those six Super Bowls, the quarterback who led the league in passing yards was also on the favored team. Again, all of them lost on the field (obviously, their teams didn't cover). The one game where the quarterback's team was an underdog, the Miami Dolphins (+3), were smoked by the San Francisco 49ers, 38-16. So, none of the six beat the spread.
- Since 2000, NFL MVPs who have appeared in the Super Bowl have been winless (0-8). Who's the favorite to win the MVP award this season? Again, it's Mahomes. Much like the teams which fielded the NFL's passing yardage leader, none of the teams with an NFL MVP beat the spread in any of those eight Super Bowl contests.
That list includes Warner (Super Bowl XXXVI), Gannon (Super Bowl XXXVII), Shaun Alexander (Super Bowl XL), Brady (Super Bowl XLII and Super Bowl LII), Manning (Super Bowl XLIV and Super Bowl XLVIII), Cam Newton (Super Bowl 50) and Matt Ryan (Super Bowl LI). Yes, folks, Ryan won the MVP award in 2016. - It should be noted, however, that 10 players have won both the MVP award and the Super Bowl in the same season, but it has yet to happen since Warner did it in 1999. Coincidentally, the team that had the league MVP and also went to the Super Bowl from 1966-1999 had a perfect 10-0 record in the big game. Those teams also went 8-0-2 against the spread, so the trend favored teams with MVP winners
- Some other trends might favor the Chiefs, including 18 of the last 21 teams wearing white uniforms winning the Super Bowl, but Mahomes does have a pair of pretty interesting and recent trends going against him in this huge matchup.
- Bettors in the US are expected to legally wager nearly $1.175 billion on the Eagles and the Chiefs in Super Bowl 57, which would mark the first billion-dollar game the country has ever seen. Last year’s matchup between the Rams and Bengals drew an estimated $957 million in total wagers.
- Super Bowl Prop Bets
- States Like New york banned betting on player individual awards (MVP)
- As per the rules and regulations governing NY online sports betting, bets can’t be placed on any award (NBA MVP, MLB Cy Young, Heisman Trophy, etc) that requires a vote to determine the winner.
- So when Super Bowl betting makes its way to New York in a few weeks, don’t expect to see a prop bet on which player will win the game’s MVP.
- It is, essentially, an integrity issue — that voters could conceivably collude to determine the winner
- According to Fox, which is hosting the game this year, 30-second spots sold for between $6 million-$7 million.
- States Like New york banned betting on player individual awards (MVP)
- Chiefs vs Eagles Preview
- The key for the Chiefs is to protect Patrick Mahomes
- Mahomes said he’s feeling even better than he did heading into game vs CIN
- Chiefs need to make jalen hurts beat them with his arm; hasn’t had to yet
- outside of Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelce, Jalen Hurts*, and AJ Brown the guys that need to have a big game for their teams to win are Chris Jones and Isaiah Pacheco and Hassan Reddick and the Offensive Line of Eagles
- Andy Reid over Nick Siriani | Patrick Mahomes over Jalen Hurts | Miles sanders and Isaiah Pacheco Push | Travis Kelce over Dallas Goedert | Eagles OL over Chiefs OL | Eagles DL and Chiefs DL Push | Eagles Secondary over Chiefs Secondary | Eagles ST and Chiefs ST Push

NFL Championship Weekend Recap! | Running Up The Score (2/5/23)
Sunday Feb 05, 2023
Sunday Feb 05, 2023
- NFL News
- Tom Brady Retires
- Sean Payton Hired by Denver
- The details of the trade, as announced by the Saints, include Denver sending its 2023 first round draft pick and 2024 second round pick to New Orleans in exchange for Payton and the Saints’ 2024 third round pick
- Dallas Cowboys fire Kellen Moore; hire brian shottenhymer
- Demeco Ryans hired by houston
- San Francisco 49ers @ Philadelphia Eagles
- not mad at refs over the devonta smith catch, mad at shanahan
- Jalen hurts did not play well
- 49ers defense was on the field for 37 minutes of the game
- Shanahan just keeps coming up short
- using a backup tight end to block one of the premier pass rushers this year was the reason purdy got hurt
- when a defense only has to key on a one dimensional type of offense it makes the game a whole lot easier
- What lane johnson is doing is remarkable, and the false start shit is stupid
- 49ers literally on 3rd and 4th string QB
- you can’t go on to say if purdy stayed in the game 49ers would’ve won or eagles still would’ve won, but what you can say is that played a huge role and that game wouldn’t have gone the way it did
- eagles averaged 3.4 yards per rush, they weren’t rushing the ball great by any means and jalen hurts had 120 yards passing again
- Eagles only 269 yards of offense on 70 offensive plays, and a 3.8 yards-per-play average. They still weren’t able to stop the Eagles from scoring four rushing touchdowns.
- Maybe NFL should look at adding a 3rd QB on rosters for playoffs just in case that doesn’t have anything to do with the 53 man roster, NFL can’t have this happen again in the such a big game
- Cincinnati Bengals @ Kansas City Chiefs
- Travis kelce is a national treasure
- Mahomes is unbelieavable especially what he’s doing with the injury and what he has around him
- Chiefs went in without talking bengals on the other hand not so much
- everyone talks about the play where chiefs got a due over, it never mattered got sacked on the next play
- a lot of people blaming officiating in this game as well
- its just impressive what mahomes

- Giants should have $60 in cap space heading into free agency
- Joe Schoen can be aggressive but should look at retaining first
- Brian daboll as a finalist for the COTY but not siriani is a joke
- Do the giants bring back Saquon at $16M per? Even with injury concerns?
- In 2018 Saquon had 9 runs of 40+ becoming only 1 of 3 RBs to do it in the last 30 years and almost broke CJ2k record 10 from 2009; since he tore his ACL, MCL in 2022 he ran for 68 in wk 1 and hit 40 one more time

- Cap Space: -$20M
- Upcoming Free Agents:
- Jordan Poyer
- Jordan Phillips
- Tremaine Edmunds
- David Quessenberry
- Shaq Lawson
- Devin Singletary

NFL Playoffs Divisional Round! | Running Up The Score (1/19/23)

Thursday Jan 19, 2023
- NFL News
- What We Learned from Wild Card Weekend
- Fun Fact out of the 8 head coaches there’s only one head coach that has a defensive background (sean McDermott)
- Dallas Cowboys @ Tampa Bay Buccaneers
- Early on worried me with cowboys then they settled in
- Dak Prescott Shut everyone up
- Dak haters saying he wasn’t reading defenses meanwhile read Tampa all night
- Dak wasn’t even the one that had the best night! Kellen Moore was flawless
- Dak played the best game of his career
- Cowboys can finally check off some demons
- Tyler smith will be a top OL in this league within the next 2 years
- Tom brady was off
- Tom Brady looked old
- Tom brady won’t be on that team next year whether its another team or retire
- Seattle Seahawks @ San Francisco 49ers
- first half was kept close
- seattle losing the fumble cost them the game changed momentum
- Brock purdy moves to 6-0 in his career
- Purdy showed poise made plays
- Christian McCaffrey with big game
- Geno smith at the time of the fumble was 14/18 164 yards 1 TD at the end of 3rd
- DK had a big game 10 catches for 136 yards
- Kenneth walker averaged 4.2 yards per carry
- Dallas Cowboys @ San Francisco 49ers
- Great test for both teams
- Cowboys had a +125 Point Differential this season; during the season the 49ers faced the chiefs (+127) and Seahawks (+6) every other opponent finished with a negative point differential
- I hated the monday night wild card game, great for your regular football fan to have 3 straight days of playoff football but terrible for the play on the field the fact 49ers played on saturday at 4 (1 cali time) and cowboys played 830 monday
- both defenses very good, its going to come down to who’s offense actually steps up
- when will we see or will we see the “rookie” brock purdy, only game that was a bit of a struggle for him was arizona but other than that he hasn’t looked like a rookie and every rookie has their moments
- 1/3rd of purdy’s 30 attempts vs sea went to targets that had at least 5 yards separation
- Dak needs to continue what he showed on monday night otherwise people will forget that performance
- 49ers defense hasn’t played an offense like the cowboys since the game against the chiefs which was their last loss of the season back in week 7
- 49ers are susceptible to the passing game
- key for the cowboys offense is to protect dak the way they did monday night and no turnovers
- SF has had a turnover in every single game this year
- key for cowboys defense is to tackle, deebo and Cmac are yards after type players and biggest key is to get to brock purdy
- Brock purdy’s previous defenses he’s faced Mia 18th, TB 10th, SEA 26th, WAS 3rd Tot, LVR 28th, ARI 21st, SEA 26th
- Key for SF pressure on Dak and stop the run
- Key for SF on offense, run the ball and don’t turn the ball over
- Los Angeles Chargers @ Jacksonville Jaguars
- 1st half was all the chargers and 2nd half all jaguars
- Broadcast was MIS…ER….ABLE!
- this game is the reason i think trevor lawrence is already in the top 10 as a QB in this league, to have a 23 yr old throw 4 ints in his first playoff game and to be down 27-0 at one point yet stay poised and in the game to come back and win is unbelievable
- i don’t even know what to say about the chargers, its inexcusable to have a QB with the talent of justin herbert and first off not finish this game off but also not make deep runs in the playoffs
- ive been hard on doug Pederson but what he’s done with this jacksonville team is nothing short of incredible
- According to NFL Research, Lawrence boasts the highest-passer rating increase from Year 1 to Year 2 of any quarterback in league history. His passer rating has increased by 24.1 points
- Jacksonville Jaguars @ Kansas City Chiefs

- Jaguars coming in with a huge amount of momentum and hype
- will bye deem harmful for kansas city?
- jaguars are a different team than they were in week 10
- Jags on 6 game win streak
- 4 straight AFC Champ games
- TLaw has never lost a football game on a saturday 52-2 in HS lost 2 on a friday 38-2 in college losing on a bama monday and OSU friday and 1-0 NFL last saturday
- New york Giants @ Minnesota Vikings
- I think we all saw this coming, we knew vikings were frauds but this solidified it
- Daniel Jones might’ve had his best career game
- ive never seen so many wide open receivers as i did on sunday
- Defense for giants played really well between kayvon and dexter
- Minnesotas defense was so bad, so bad that giants fans think daniel jones is a top 10 qb
- Daniel jones reminds me of eli manning so much and i know everyone joked about it when he was drafted but its true, middle of the pack QB
- brian daboll is actually a really good head coach
- New York Giants @ Philadelphia Eagles
- Giants are 8-1 straight up as playoff underdog since 2007
- 2007 +3 @TB W
- 07 +7 @DAL W
- 07 +7.5 @GB W

- 16 +5 GB L by 25
- 22 +2.5 @ MIN W
- Its hard to beat a team 3 times in a season
- first meeting with a healthy jalen hurts eagles put a beating down on the giants
- Giants are hot but eagles aren’t the vikings lets not get to far ahead of ourselves here vikings are not a good football team they overcame their weaknesses because of the stars they have on that team
- Jalen hurts had another week to recover from the shoulder injury
- the only worry when it comes to the eagles is that with the struggles they had at the end of the season and hurts only getting one game before the playoffs and eagles struggling against the giants and then having the bye will that effect them
- #1 seeds one and done stats
- Giants are 8-1 straight up as playoff underdog since 2007
- Baltimore Ravens @ Cincinnati Bengals

- Weird that lamar jackson didn’t travel with the team
- Offensive line is still an issue for Bengals causing burrow to get the ball out quick with no big time throws throughout this game
- Losing jonah williams can deem big
- Bengals let Huntley finish with his 2nd best QBR in his career
- missed opportunities for ravens in red zone ultimately ending with fumble
- qb sneak has worked so well for every team but not going over the top
- Miami Dolphins @ Buffalo Bills
- Buffalo blew a 17 point lead
- josh allen continued turnover issue
- just knowing a skylar thompson led team to a 3 pt loss to bills is unsettling for the bills
- take it as a division rival
- josh allen needs to cool it with the turnovers, won’t be able to overcome going up against a good QB
- dolphins had 7 sacks against josh allen
- Cincinnati Bengals @ Buffalo Bills
- 3 backup lineman potentially playing for cincinnati and losing awuzie for the season
- injuries are hitting at the worst time for bengals
- Burrow is showing really how good he actually is
- Burrow sacked league high 51 times
- Josh allen sacked 7 times is a concern now facing hubbard and hendrickson
- Cincinnatis secondary is my biggest concern in this matchup
