Summary
As dust settles on a wild Week 16, Chad Millman and Simon Hunter dive into their betting results across the NFL, checking in on the gambling action after some tremendous gambling sweats. Plus, we get all their early Christmas Day picks and NFL Week 17 predictions, best bets and lean as the Sharp or Square Pro Football Pick 'Em Contest marches on.
Games recapped today include Josh Allen leading his Buffalo Bills to a win over Shedeur Sanders and the Cleveland Browns, and Jared Goff's Detroit Lions losing outright to Aaron Rodgers and the Pittsburgh Steelers, as wide receiver D.K. Metcalf took a swing at a fan in the stands. We also hear their breakdown of the Miami Dolphins letdown against Joe Burrow and the Cincinnati Bengals, as a benched Tua Tagovailoa gave way to Quinn Ewers. Plus, will Philip Rivers turn back the clock and lead the Indianapolis Colts to an upset win over the San Francisco 49ers on Monday Night Football? And after a devastating Patrick Mahomes' injury, Cam Ward and the lowly Tennessee Titans cruise to victory over the Kansas City Chiefs.
We also hear about Trevor Lawrence and the Jacksonville Jaguars epic win over Bo Nix and the Broncos in Denver. And finally, the guys react to Dak Prescott and the Dallas Cowboys losing yet again, this time to Justin Herbert and the LA Chargers. And we had a huge NFC South battle between Baker Mayfield and Bryce Young, with the Tampa Bay Bucs falling to the Carolina Panthers. #Volume

| 0:36.5 | what a fun experience from from Thursday through yesterday into today. Great games. Some games down to the wire. One of the games that we are still paying attention to. The Detroit Lions, they are one of the teams we had in the contest. We had them at minus six and a half. |
| 0:55.2 | We got a shot. We got a small, infinitesimal only if you believe in irrational optimism |
