Good morning everyone the simple handicap for Tuesday November 22nd. Thank you for making me a part of your morning a quick reminder before we get rolling there's a show today a show tomorrow will not be uploading episodes Thursday morning or Friday morning just because of this Thanksgiving you with friends you with family the normal morning routines and commutes not the same for so many people listening to this show so I'll forego those episodes and there'll be a gap between the Wednesdays

morning show and then the show Sunday evening following the games on week number 12 though that said let's get to the NFL week 12 market run down and it all starts with the Buffalo bills on the road at the Detroit lines Thursday morning for most people Thursday afternoon 12 30 p.m. Eastern time for those of you out east it is a nine and a half points

this morning at Chris nine and a half fan to arrested the market is sitting at nine flat total got as high as 54 still hanging there at circa 53 and a half now everywhere else on the board I look at this number and after having the data digest there's going to be no health improvement expected on the defensive side for the bills especially within the secondary I still feel like the offensive performance that the bills produce when given the chance

to play indoors within a dome is still something that is not fully priced into the sides we obviously see the totals very high but just that offensive output that they have when not playing outdoors is significant although the lines are getting healthy

we do think that this is a bit of a mismatch now it's a bit of a a weird number in this dead zone on a meaningless number of nine let's see what the next move is but certainly have some intrigue here when looking at the bills on the side you also have to throw in the fact that there's really not that much of a home field advantage

since the bills played in this same stadium just 96 hours before this game will kick off a very rare circumstance for a road team to be in New York Giants on the road at the Dallas Cowboys getting ugly all of the sudden for the New York Giants one deal Robinson torn ACL will miss the rest of the season

Adori Jackson he's going to miss this game as well out indefinitely four to six weeks with a knee injury when it comes to the other side Dallas Cowboys both Micah Parsons and the Marcus Lawrence non practices on Monday but it wasn't a full practice but Parsons dealing with the knee injury

and the Marcus Lawrence dealing with the foot injury and sort of conflicting reports when you consider the Parsons left the game in the fourth quarter last week came back now there's all the sudden news circling around the injury on the short week here we'll see what his status fully is but with those Giants injuries certainly a lot of prop potential when you look at what this game could shape up as but Cowboys got bet where as low as eight yesterday now all the way up to nine and a half as well

kind of anticipated that coming yesterday on the pod for those of you that listen New York Patriots on the road at the Minnesota Vikings no more two and a half within the market

this is now a three flat across the board with a total from 42 and a half down to 41 and a half and creeping lower Patriots lose their starting center Andrews he is out for the rest of the season re aggravated the injury

that's a big blow to the offensive line have to watch for the status of Darisau the left tackle for the Vikings he is very unlikely to play surprise he's not officially ruled out yet as I'm saying this out loud it's actually something that I think I may have missed

but not expecting him to be there which will give the Patriots some opportunity to get pressure off the left side of the offensive line in the issue that's hampered the Vikings since he's been out

but when you're looking at this matchup although the criticism now is widespread against the Minnesota Vikings this is a Patriots offense that has done nothing for the last two months Baltimore Ravens on the road at the Jacksonville Jags got as low as three and a half

now going back the other way up to four minus 15 and trending slightly higher Ravens continue to get healthier news to watch here is going to be Gus Edwards sat out to last couple of games

still uncertain about a week 12 return here against the Jacksonville Jags Denver Broncos on the road at the Carolina Panthers still uncertain of who is going to be under center for Carolina they had not committed to a starter there is a chance that we may see Sam Darnold under center for the

Carolina Panthers and how you grade that relative to Baker Mayfield a big question mark to say the least don't know if you're going to see much of a difference one

where the other when it comes to the Broncos they continue to sustain injuries and other two players placed on IR yesterday Atlanta Falcons on the road at the Washington commanders Kyle pits out indefinitely with a torn MCL a massive loss for

the Falcons you might be thinking yourself while they're not using him anyway so what big of a loss is it this is an offense that's struggling to pass the football not having

pits out on the field allows defenses to key in and other guys his presence alone being taken off of the field is enormous as is the no longer existed upside of the Falcons getting back to using him correctly a huge blow for a Falcons

offense that unless they've been matched up against very weak defenses have performed very poorly all season the commanders with the news that chase young could be returning for this front seven which has been very good against

a run we see this number creep up all the way as high as four and a half this morning Tampa Bay bucket years on the road at the Cleveland Browns this numbers trending towards Cleveland there hasn't been any indication

anywhere on the board that this is a bucks side yet from anybody else three and a half minus oh five is the number for the most part across the board we are seeing three flat at circa total here down to 43 and a half from 44 when it comes to injury reports injury news
