Welcome to the Fantasy Throw Down Podcast, bringing you the latest from the world of sports,

0:08.0

DFS and gambling. With over five years of hot takes and millions of downloads later, I guess he's been doing something right.

0:18.0

Now, sit back and listen to one of the sharpest minds in the game.

0:23.5

Here's your host, Duane Calendar.

0:26.8

Welcome to the show folks.

0:31.4

Got to cover the showdown for Thursday Night Football quickly tonight

0:36.1

So we have the Lions going to Green Bay to face the Packers lines slight slight favor at 2.5.

0:44.0

I actually agree with this because I think the

1:34.8

I kind of disagree with it because I think with David Montgomery coming back from a knee injury,

1:41.1

they ease him back into the offense and not throw him immediately into the fire.

1:47.2

The numbers are saying it's going to be mostly David Montgomery Day versus Jamir Gibbs. I think it's still going to be pretty much a split committee with

1:59.2

Gibbs getting a little bit more to the line chair work, but I do think that the lines are going to focus more on the play action pass to set things up versus just trying to pound the rock on the Packers.
