Massachusetts welcome in what Driving the Great Episode 397 this episode of what Driving the GR is presented to you by Boost Mobile. Happy Thanksgiving everybody. Hopefully you're listening to this before Thanksgiving because it is our Week 13 gambling show. If you're listening to it on or after Thanksgiving that we will it will still apply so don't turn it off. But we are going to hit on the Thanksgiving games which maybe you guys already know how they went. If you do, hopefully the Chiefs won. Reminder everybody. Like Rate, Subscribe Review and of course all lines are from our friends at Hard Rock Bet. Last week we we said after our slow start to the year we need to be above 500 by Thanksgiving. It is at Thanksgiving we are 30, 29 and 1 thanks to a 31 and 1 week last week that was in my opinion our best week of the season. Not just record wise but where we were on the games. We stayed away from the Chiefs minus three and a half because we didn't like the hook. The hook would have killed us. Chicago minus two and a half against Pittsburgh. They win by three. The jets plus 13 and a half at Baltimore. They win by or they lose by 13 but that game was jets were in it in the second half. Losing that one would have been disastrous. Seattle -13 and a half at Tennessee was a shameful loss in that Seattle was dominating this game. Tennessee has a 20 minute drive at the end of the game to cut it to six. I still like our side in that game. Arizona plus three at Jacksonville. We said on the show how important it was to get the full three and not just the two and a half. Now I wanted Arizona to win outright. If you were listening to yesterday's show, you know why? I had a big bet tied up in that but didn't happen. Arizona loses by three in overtime and Cleveland plus three and a half at Vegas, which was our favorite bet of the week. We just didn't think Vegas was going to be able to handle Cleveland's pass rush. We were absolutely right to the tune of 10 sacks. Before we get to this week's slate, today's show is brought to you by our presenting sponsor Hard Rock Bet. Three things to be extra thankful this week. Family, food and football.

All right, no buys because it's Thanksgiving. Final buys are next weekend. Here are the games we are not betting but I had a feel on or a didn't I'll tell you. Green Bay getting two and a half at Detroit I do really like Detroit. I am staying away only because I'm a little worried about golf's ability to stay upright against that Green Bay pass rush. But if I were playing this I would be playing Detroit minus two and a half. Pardon me. I almost assuredly Thanksgiving morning will bet Detroit -2 and a half. But it's not one of the five picks the fact that it's not one of the five Picks means I have a pretty I feel pretty strongly about the five games we are rolling with because I also really liked really likes too strong liked Cincinnati getting seven at Baltimore I'm staying away purely because Joe Burrow first game in months. I don't know how he's going to look and that Baltimore defense last month has been frisky. But getting seven with Cincinnati, a team that if Burrow looks good, could win when Lamar has gone from a hamstring to a knee to an ankle and now a toe injury. His his lower body ailments are just moving south, you know, on his leg that's concerning. He hasn't looked great in the last couple weeks so I definitely would not be laying the 7 with Baltimore. But without seeing Burrow play I it's hard for me to include them in the picks even though I thought about it. New Orleans at Miami Miami is laying six points. What a slap in the face to New Orleans that the Miami Dolphins are a six point favorite against you. But I have no interest in that game. We're staying away from it. Excuse me. Houston at Indy. Houston getting four and a half. I like Houston in this spot. Extra rest with how well the defense is playing but first game back for Stroud in like a month. Indy the UN I think Indy could be teetering and that Houston defense is unreal. But having not seen Stroud, I'm going to stay away. But I do like Houston plus four and a half. Jacksonville laying six and a half at the Titans. Are the Titans going to get another win? That is so are the Titans really going to go 1 in 16? Because if they're going to get another win it's either this week or home against the Saints in week 17. So that made me kind of lean Tennessee, but it also might be they're not getting another win, we'll stay away. The Rams laying ten and a half at Carolina, Eileen Rams there, but this feels like a potential backdoor cover by the Panthers and a Rams just get out of there with a win. So we're staying away. Atlanta laying two and a half at the Jets I I don't think Kurt Cousins at this point in his career should be laying points on the road. So I do lean jets, but I also don't think an Aaron Glenn coach team that I can bet them in good conscience getting less than a field goal. So I'm going to stay away there Buffalo laying four at Pittsburgh I stared at Pittsburgh for quite some time, but the uncertainty about who's playing quarterback plus Buffalo on extra arrest and Buffalo needing the game was enough for me to stay away. But if I was playing aside it would be Pittsburgh getting four, Vegas getting nine and a half at the Chargers. Chargers off a buy. Vegas is in shambles. Chargers would be the play, but the Chargers offensive line is in such a spot that laying nearly double digits with them in a divisional game seems reckless. Denver laying six and a half at Washington. I like Denver here. That defense against Marcus Mariota, particularly Denver off a buy. Washington's also off a buy, but I like Denver in that spot. But I'm not betting it. I'll be totally honest. One of the reasons is because I'll be rooting for Washington so I don't want to have my bet conflict with my root. And then the Giants getting seven and a half at New England. The play there would be New England but I got to see how they look given the offensive line injury. So we are staying away. So that leaves us with five games. Reminder. All lines are from Hard Rock bet and the first one Hard Rock bets helping me out because most shops have Kansas City laying three and a half. Hard Rock has Kansas City laying three. I will jump on Kansas City minus three at Dallas over the last 20 years, Thanksgiving favorites are 51 and nine straight up and 40 and 20 against the spread. Now the Chiefs just played an overtime game and they're on the road on a Thursday that's typically a disaster. The counterpoint to that is the Chiefs overtime game ended earlier than the Cowboys game because the Cowboys were in the late window and the Chiefs overtime game was weird because the Colts barely had the ball. So I am I am not as concerned about that trend as I maybe normally would be. But also it's this I think the Chiefs, whatever issues they have offensively, I think the Chiefs against bad secondaries still move the ball at will. I think Dallas has a bad secondary. I'll take Casey minus the three. Chicago getting seven at Philadelphia. I just do not believe the Eagles deserve to be more than six point favorites against good teams right now because the offense is so herky jerky. Also the Lane Johnson's absence has been a death knell for this team over the last few years and Ben Johnson after that his whole the tush push is not an explosive play jab at Philadelphia. That is probably a bigger deal on first things first than other shows. You knows he he better have something ready for Philly. Al I think Chicago could win the game. I like getting the seven points. I'll take Chicago plus seven Tampa minus three against Arizona. Typically given the Baker injury I'd stay away here but Arizona and now am I mad at them for costing me my bet this past week? Sure. But Trevor gave them the ball four times including a pick six and they still couldn't win. Those were not like great defensive plays by Arizona. Those were Trevor making awful plays. I expect Baker to play Marvin Harrison Jr. We still don't know what's going on with him. Post appendix removal Bucky Irving finally returns Tampa pounds the run Tampa -3 I think for the second straight week my favorite bet of the week is Cleveland. Cleveland getting six in the snow against the Niners. That defense against Brock Purdy fresh off those interceptions in the snow. I think this is a low scoring low possession run the ball game and Cleveland. Cleveland's defense is so great that at home and inclement weather maybe our first snow game of the year. I'll take the six points and I'll take them happily. And then last but not least, I don't know if Cleveland's my favorite pick or this one is all lay the points even though it bit me this past weekend again with Seattle. Seattle laying ten and a half against Minnesota the Vikings are on their third string quarterback. McCarthy went and now gosh Gomer. What's his name? Sam Bosmer? Gosmer. Whatever it is I I don't like his chances against Mike McDonald Seattle defense and so can Seattle get to 21? That should be enough to cover a against the Vikings third string quarterback I'll take Seattle at home laying the ten and a half. So our five picks are as follows. The Chiefs laying three thanks to Hard Rock Bet for not making us lay three and a half at Dallas Chicago getting seven at Philadelphia Tampa Bay laying three at home against the hated Cardinals. Cleveland getting six at home against Brock Pie and the NERS in the snow and Seattle laying ten and a half at home against Minnesota. We will get to Damanze's teaser and the offer and Touchdown Genie in a moment. But first, are you thinking about upgrading to the all new iPhone 17 Pro?

Alright, Demonte's teaser. Two in a row. Now last week he had KC getting four and a half. Not an easy win, but a win. Cleveland getting 11 and a half, an easy win and Jacksonville getting five and a half. Sadly an easy win. I gave that a B minus. Let's check in with Damanze again with the Week 13 teaser.
Chase Sapphire Advertiser
All right y' all back at it again with another three team eight point teaser. For every week that my child is alive, I win a teaser. See if we can continue that street. This might be one of the last ones I have to do for you guys because I'll be back in person soon. But first off or three team eight pointer, you know the deal. Kansas City at Dallas. We're going to tease Dallas from plus 3 to plus 11. And then next we have Arizona at Tampa Bay. Going to be teasing Tampa Bay from minus 3 to plus 5 and then lastly we have Chicago at Philly in Chicago from plus 7 to plus 15. Let's continue the streak and I'll see you guys soon.
Commercial Narrator
Thank you.
Sports Analyst
Great job, Demonte. Can't wait to see you tomorrow. Teasing through the 0 with Tampa I don't love I do love the Chicago leg and I think I don't love the Chiefs leg, the Dallas leg because again I do think there's a the Chiefs wins aside from the indie win have all been double digits. So if you think the Chiefs are going to win, I don't know if 11 would be enough. I'm going to give this a B minus. Part of that's for good luck because I gave him a B minus last week. He won. I gave him half the week before he won. Touchdown Genie. This week we're going to stick with the Chiefs Cowboys game and I could go easy and go Travis Kelsey because Kelsey is going to score on Thanksgiving but that's only plus 115 so I'm going to go big game hunting on Touchdown Jeannie Patrick Mahomes. They've had some red zone struggles. The Cowboys have been susceptible to the quarterback run game Patrick Mahomes anytime. Touchdown at four to one last the offer last week was Shador over 160 and a half and over one passing touchdown that would have cashed. I faded the producers and said switch to the Shador under which by the way that little swing pass, if it's six inches more laterally that's a run not a pass and then it cashes. This week the producers are offering me cream hunt over 33 and a half rushing yards and Rasheed rice 72 and a half receiving yards of plus 225. Here is the problem. Isaiah Pacheco's back so I do not think Cream Hunt's going to have a big game. Cream hunt after 30 plus carries three days ago so I would I will again go against the producers. I will take that offer but it's going to be under 33 and a half rushing yards for cream hunt over 72 and a half receiving yards for she rice. That'll still be plus 225. I'm going to take that one. Thank you to everyone Reminded everybody like rate subscribe and review to the show. Huge thank you to Blue Duck to Volume to Hard Rock, Bet to Boost and of course to Zen. Have a great Thanksgiving. Talk to you guys soon. What's right.
