It's time for a betting preview episode of Inside Coverage right now.

Music for a betting preview episode of inside coverage right now. Welcome to inside coverage.

It's the how and why behind all things going on in the NFL.

And boy, this is the perfect degenerate episode. Like I'm Jason Fitz. I'm hanging out where Frank Schwab is always in. Frank and I get a special guest. We get an extra person coming in with us now. Ben Fox joining us. And we, Frank, I can't believe they're letting us do this. We get to talk about betting, we're going to get into so many fun betting stuff.

Frank and our degenerates, Ben, that's the real takeaway here. Frank and I, there's a reason they don't let us go to Vegas together. There's a reason like shot a drink is a tradition for Frank and I. And now all of a sudden, Frank, like my level of excitement on this from one to ten is like a three thousand. Proof that the bosses should never let us plan anything because we're like, we're going to get Ben on. We're just going to talk betting for an hour. Like, why not? Let's just, you know, let's just go full degenerate. This is what happens when the teacher's gone. The substitute can come in and we could just throw spitballs all over the all over the room and just

talk about lines and odds and oh man I I'm excited I if you're 3,000 I might be 3,001 on

the excitement it's a safe space like it's a safe space you know degenerate's a strong word we're

gonna we're gonna educate here we'll educate but but it's in me and fits this case apt it is

it's accurate it fits it fits it fits, apt. It is. It's accurate. It fits. It fits.

It fits. See what they did there. Okay. So for all of you, like, if you're listening to this, you're like, I'm not a betting guy. I promise you that this is going to be betting around just good football conversation. So, you know, just understand that our goal here is to give you some betting information and also have some smart football talk. So let's get into some of the latest betting news because we can't talk about football contractually this week without talking about Michael Parsons. I feel like that's just part of our job, right? So Michael Parsons has demanded a trade from the Dallas Cowboys, which I think, I mean, I just speak for the whole room when I say he's still going to be a Dallas Cowboy.

Like, let's start there. Frank Schwab, do you believe week one Micah Parsons is a Dallas Cowboy? Yes, but I don't know if he's going to be playing. Let's put it that way. I don't think the Cowboys are trading Micah Parsons. I mean, it's just not going to happen.

Jerry always gets the deal done, right?

But the way he's talking about this, it's almost like he's enjoying it. It really is. I think it's almost weird how he's like reveling in the negotiation here and this kind of game of chicken they're all playing. He even referenced Emmett Smith back in 1993. And if we remember, one of the most famous holdouts of all time, because Emmett Smith missed two games, Cowboys went O and two.

I could see Micah missing that game.

At least one game.

We saw Chris Jones miss a game.

I believe it was two seasons ago, the opener against Detroit.

I could see a similar path there.
