Munaf Manji, SleepyJ and Dave Essler talk betting for the NFL. Favorites ruled NFL Week 9, going 13 and 1 straight up and 10, 2 and 1 against the spread, and Munaf Manji, Uncle Dave Essler and Sleepy J break down every result on this edition of the Weekend Rewind from the Straight Outta Vegas AM feed. The crew opens with honest reflections on a rough Sunday before heading to Madrid around the 3 minute mark, where Joe Burrow threw for 271 yards and three touchdowns and Chase caught 10 passes for 155 yards in a 34 to 17 Bengals win. Uncle Dave calls the Falcons a fade no matter the price, while Sleepy J points to Atlanta ranking 29th in third down conversions and turnovers. Near the 8 minute mark the focus shifts to Dallas, which outgained Indianapolis 508 to 271 behind 195 receiving yards from CeeDee Lamb yet committed 14 penalties in a 27 to 23 win that may have been the final game for Jonathan Taylor as a Colt. The panel also covers the Jessie Bates trade to Jacksonville and a Jake Ferguson knee injury before Kansas City handles the Jets 35 to 12 behind three Kenneth Walker touchdowns, with a Patrick Mahomes elbow scare and a Xavier Worthy hamstring injury worth watching. Around the 19 minute mark Detroit grinds out a 19 to 9 win in Miami by converting all four fourth down tries, and the Saints edge Cleveland 23 to 22 in overtime after the Browns go for two, a decision Sleepy J and Uncle Dave both question. The Giants beat the Eagles 19 to 11 in a game with 13 combined sacks, and Sleepy J predicts Nick Sirianni will not last the season. Past the half hour mark Puka Nacua catches 14 passes as the Rams top Washington 20 to 13, Denver survives Carolina 26 to 21 despite being outgained, and C.J. Stroud throws five touchdowns in a 44 to 22 rout that drops the Chargers to 0 and 8, prompting Sleepy J to call them the doormat of the league while Uncle Dave surprisingly leans toward the Chargers getting 5.5 points in Baltimore. Near the 50 minute mark Green Bay routs New England 45 to 27 as Drake Maye throws three interceptions, and Uncle Dave, a Patriots fan, says he would bet them to miss the playoffs. San Francisco forces five second half turnovers to beat the Raiders 38 to 17, and Uncle Dave makes the case for the over in the Raiders game against Seattle next week. Just past the one hour mark Seattle beats Arizona 17 to 3 behind Drew Lock, then Chicago survives four Caleb Williams interceptions to beat Tampa Bay 27 to 24 on Sunday Night Football as Todd Bowles earns credit for his halftime adjustments. The show closes at about 1 hour 12 minutes with a Monday Night Football preview of the Buffalo Bills at the Minnesota Vikings, where Carson Wentz starts for the injured Kyler Murray. Uncle Dave backs the Vikings, citing a Buffalo defense that keeps allowing 29 or more points and a Minnesota defense that held the Bears to three, while Sleepy J refuses to fade Josh Allen laying three. Munaf Manji has his own pick posted at Pregame.com, where 20 dollars gets you 100 Bulk Dollars through midnight tonight. Connecting…Claude is AI and can make mistakes.

Munaf Manji and Dave Essler talk NFL betting for Week 9 Munaf Manji and Uncle Dave Essler break down the NFL Week 9 betting card on the Straight Outta Vegas AM feed, opening at 00:06 with Munaf riding an 18 and 2 NFL run and bracing for regression while Dave reflects on how hot and cold streaks can mislead any bettor who forgets that neither one tells the whole story. At 02:51 the show heads to Madrid, where the Falcons catch three points against the Bengals with a total near 52.5, and Dave makes the case that Atlanta is the sharp side because 82 percent of the tickets on Cincinnati still have not moved the line through three, adding that the scoreless Falcons effort in a Tampa Bay storm should be thrown out entirely. His best bet is the Falcons team total over 23.5, while Munaf likes Michael Penix Jr passing yards and a monster day for Bijan Robinson with Brian Robinson Jr out with a hamstring injury. At 08:19 the focus shifts to Denver at Carolina, a game Dave openly says he hates, yet three quarters of the money on the Broncos has not pushed the number to three, so he lands on the under 44.5 because a close game points to a lower score, while Munaf backs the Panthers plus 2.5, citing a 16 and 7 record against the spread off a loss under Dave Canales and extra rest after a Thursday night game. At 15:59 the hosts move to Foxborough, where the Patriots lay three against the Packers despite a long injury list, and Dave dismisses the noise, notes Green Bay cannot run the ball, and takes New England at home in a late afternoon kickoff that should feel like a night game, leaning to the over, while Munaf eyes the Patriots team total over 23.5. At 24:01 Sunday Night Football brings Tampa Bay to Chicago with the Bears laying six, and although both hosts respect the points, Baker Mayfield has barely thrown in two weeks, the Bears have scored 30 plus in three straight games, and Ben Johnson is 10 and 4 against the spread at home, so Chicago is the call, with a tease or the money line as options. At 34:34 Munaf explains his one star play on the winless Chargers plus six against Houston, and Dave fully agrees, calling Los Angeles the sharp side and liking the under. At 38:39 the show covers Shedeur Sanders starting for Cleveland, the Jacoby Brissett trade from Arizona to Baltimore, Drew Lock starting for Seattle and Carson Wentz starting Monday night for Minnesota, before Dave offers quick hits at 40:44 on the Eagles with Joe Milton, Washington plus 4.5 against the Rams and Miami getting a touchdown against Detroit. The episode closes at 43:17 with early Week 10 value on the Steelers plus 3.5 against a Bengals team returning from Spain and Kansas City minus three at Atlanta before the number moves.

Munaf Manji and SleepyJ talk NFL Player props for Week 9. Munaf Manji and Sleepy J return to the Straight Outta Vegas AM feed for the NFL Week 9 props edition, with the best bets sitting at five and three on the season for plus 3.40 units and Sleepy coming off a four and one week. At 1:35 the hosts sort through a wild quarterback carousel, as Jacoby Brissett is benched and dealt to Baltimore, Gardner Minshew takes over in Arizona, Deshaun Watson enters concussion protocol with Shedeur Sanders on deck, Joe Milton replaces Tanner McKee in Philadelphia, and Sam Darnold is sidelined by a quad injury that hands Seattle to Drew Lock. At 3:05 Sleepy opens with Michael Penix Jr. over 219.5 passing yards against a Cincinnati defense that has been shredded by Aaron Rodgers, Cam Ward, C.J. Stroud, Trevor Lawrence and Tyler Huntley, and at 4:58 Munaf reveals the identical play, calling it a classic buy low spot after a four interception outing. At 5:59 Sleepy backs Christian McCaffrey over 60.5 rushing yards against the second worst run defense in the league and urges listeners to pair it with a Kaelon Black rushing over once that number posts, and Munaf admits he had the same play written down. At 9:13 Munaf turns to Jonathan Taylor over 18.5 receiving yards against Dallas, noting 202 receiving yards on the season and four straight games over the number, while Sleepy argues the Colts want to showcase Taylor as a three down back for trade suitors and calls it one of the strongest plays of the year. At 13:08 Sleepy takes Dolphins rookie Caleb Douglas over 38.5 receiving yards against a Detroit defense missing linebacker Jack Campbell, and Munaf flags Malik Willis over 1.5 passing touchdowns since every quarterback to face the Lions this season has thrown at least two. At 17:01 Munaf rides Malik Nabers over 72.5 receiving yards against Philadelphia after four straight games above 110 yards with J.J. McCarthy leaning on him, while Sleepy sees both sides with Quinyon Mitchell likely in coverage. At 21:07 Sleepy plays Sam LaPorta over 43.5 receiving yards against a Miami defense ranked third worst against tight ends, and at 23:13 Munaf counters with Harold Fannin Jr. over 41.5 receiving yards against New Orleans, backed by his target share in Shedeur Sanders starts. At 26:13 the touchdown props arrive with Kaelon Black at plus 260 and Fannin at plus 210 on DraftKings, with Sleepy noting the books seem eager to limit action on the rookie. At 29:47 Sleepy details the Pregame.com offer, a free 25 dollars just for signing up plus code RUSHING15 for 15 dollars off any pick. At 30:45 the hosts lock in the official best bet, Drew Lock over 210.5 passing yards against Arizona, citing his 235 yard, three touchdown performance against the same Cardinals in Week 2 and a betting market that undervalues backup quarterbacks in moments of league wide panic. The episode wraps with Sleepy recounting a survivor pool exit at the hands of Gardner Minshew and Munaf noting that Kyler Murray is in doubt for Monday night with Carson Wentz on standby ahead of a Tuesday trade deadline.

Lonte Smith and Dave Essler talk betting for CFB Week 10. Lonte Smith and Dave Essler return to RJ Bell Dream Preview from Pregame.com fresh off a 2 and 0 week and break down one of the most loaded Saturdays of the college football season. At 0:32 Lonte recaps the latest winners, including the outright Iowa State cash from Dave, before the show heads to Columbia at 1:42 for Texas at Missouri. Dave makes his position clear at 2:56, saying he does not trust Texas, pointing to a Missouri team that is unbeaten at home and has allowed just 33 points to three SEC opponents, and taking the Tigers plus 2.5 with the under. Lonte backs him at 5:01, noting the line refusing to reach three, a power rating that makes the game a pick, and a Texas offensive line without left tackle Trevor Goosby facing a Missouri front that could force Arch Manning to speed up, while the return of Ahmad Hardy alongside Jamal Roberts gives the Tigers a dangerous backfield. At 6:38 the focus shifts to LSU hosting Alabama, with both teams at 6 and 2 and a third loss likely ending their playoff hopes. Dave argues at 7:48 that Alabama has fallen further than people think and names the LSU team total over as his top angle, while Lonte adds at 9:46 that the Tigers rank first nationally in net adjusted EPA per play and that Sam Leavitt simply needs to protect the football. The marquee matchup arrives at 11:24 as No. 1 Miami visits Notre Dame, where the Hurricanes have not won since 1984 and a Malachi Toney ankle injury has moved money toward the Irish. Dave delivers the most memorable take of the night at 12:27, telling fans to rip up their Miami title tickets and comparing Darian Mensah to Gino Torretta and Ken Dorsey before playing the Notre Dame team total over. Lonte prefers the full game over at 14:48 and believes CJ Carr leads the Irish to a double digit win. At 16:20 the hosts preview Georgia laying 3.5 at Ole Miss in a rematch of last season playoff game won by the Rebels, with Lonte leaning on the home dog because Gunner Stockton thrives against the blitz. Dave counters at 18:23 with the under as his best bet in the game, plus Ole Miss in the first quarter, and Lonte adds that sharp angle to his own card. The Holy War follows at 20:54 as BYU visits unbeaten Utah, and Dave takes BYU plus the points at 22:23, citing three straight series wins and the steady preparation of Kalani Sitake, while Lonte leans BYU and the under at 24:19 but passes, weighing a strong Utah offensive line and the elusiveness of Devon Dampier against the need for Bear Bachmeier to test the Utah secondary. The best bets come next, with Dave taking Air Force plus 3 at Army at 26:10 and Lonte grabbing UConn plus 7 against North Carolina at 28:01, pointing to a Huskies team that is 3 and 1 against the spread at home and a Tar Heels team that is 0 and 2 as a favorite after two high leverage games. From 29:21 the hosts run the rest of the card, liking unders in Florida State at Boston College, UCLA at Minnesota, Oregon at Ohio State and Kentucky at Tennessee, backing Appalachian State against Georgia State, taking South Carolina and LaNorris Sellers at home against Texas A&M, leaning Florida and the under against Oklahoma, and debating whether West Virginia plus 17.5 can find a back door against Texas Tech. It is a complete betting guide to a Saturday packed with playoff stakes, delivered with sharp numbers, honest opinions and a few laughs along the way. Learn more about your ad choices.
