(13:30) Titans at Colts "The Colts are better than 6-5." (17:30) Buccaneers at Jaguars "We picked the Jaguars to win the division, and they're screwing us!"

So you're going to do this again. You're going to pick the Patriots to win, the Cowboys to cover, and you're going to make the Cowboys one of your best bets of the week. Are you kidding me? Did you learn nothing last week? Yeah, yeah, I didn't. I mean, you only have a three-game league. I didn't touch it out. I didn't learn anything. Oh, baby, you know what I learned? I learned Jason Garrett. I put a call in.

0:23.7

I said, hey, you got to cover the spread. Kick the field gold, even though it'll do nothing for your team. Kick the field goal. Cover the spread. Sims win a best bet. Oh, shamrock up my ass on that one. Okay. About time. It's about time. About time. So, hey, please rate review. We got the joint

PFT PM, Chris Sims on button. We did earlier today our Thanksgiving picks. So if anybody's

0:47.6

expecting to hear that, you got to go to the little Thanksgiving special podcast. All right. And now we

0:53.6

will get to the rest of our week 13 picks. Last week, Florio, you were 9 and 5 straight up. I was 10 and 4. Eat it. And best bets, we both went 2 and 1. Wait, don't you? No, no. Eating me by one game does not count as eating. Boy, the spread, I was not good against the spread. That's not good. That's embarrassing. Well, it's, again, I will argue for you here as I argue, I'm an evil Roger Goodell. You're such assholes, everybody back there. You just noticed it's been up there for four fucking weeks. I don't think I have noticed it actually one time. Can we find another picture of me? Holy crap, Pola.

1:29.1

Yes, but against the spread, I mean, again, I don't really care about my records.

1:34.1

Some of these teams, I just wouldn't bet on this game with the spread.

1:37.9

I mean, there's shit teams.

1:39.8

And you know what?

1:40.3

You can't predict shit because shit is shit, all right?

1:43.9

So it doesn't matter.

I'm four games back to you for the season and straight up.

1:49.0

I'm four games back straight up.

1:50.5

I'm three games back in our best bets last week just to cover.

1:56.4

You took the under in Dallas, New England.

1:58.9

Of course, got that in the monsoon.

2:19.2

That was a very smart bet by you. I'm an idiot for not doing that. You also got what you went the under and, no, what did you do here? I was going to go the under. You got Baltimore. Right. I was going to go the under in Broncos bills, and I should have instead of the Falcons. I took Baltimore to cover, and I'd say they covered by a few.

2:20.1

Yes, they did.

2:22.2

And then you lost the Atlanta Falcons.

2:26.3

I won Cleveland covering against the Miami Dolphins.

2:29.3
