• Damanze: Picks New England +4.5 while still expecting a Seattle win.

Conditions and restrictions may apply welcome in episode 425 this episode of what's Right with Nick Ride is presented to you by our friends at Boost Mobile. A reminder to everyone Help us out Like Rate Subscribe Review this is our final NFL gambling show of the 2025 season. It is our super bowl prop show and we will also have our final game Pick of the Year for the Super Bowl. And you know what, let's get right to it. It's time for Knicks picks presented to you by Hard Rock Bet. All right Damanz this postseason I have not been great. You have been exceptional. My Postseason record is 4 and 8. Your postseason record is 8 and 4 for the Super Bowl I am laying the points with Seattle minus four and a half against New England. I believe this is a 2717 Seahawks victory. Not a comfortable, not an easy win but semi comfortable where Seattle has maybe a 24:14 lead going into the fourth quarter and hangs on for a 27:17 win. Sam Darnold the last two years been a covering machine 25 and 11 against the spread and in his career when he's a four or more point favorite, 11 and five against the spread and 15 and one straight up I just as we talked about a lot in yesterday's show, I think the Mike McDonald defense historically has given young quarterbacks a ton of trouble. Has given every quarterback the first time they face him a ton of trouble. I think this Patriots offensive line is in relatively rough shape compared in its matchup against the Seahawks D line. Now Wednesday night Thursday morning we did get word of the Seahawks rookie do it all safety Nick him and worry suffered an ankle injury. I do not like that he is a very important chess piece to that defense. But I've got to imagine that the Toradol shots will be fast and free flowing before the super bowl and he will play. It is not enough to move me off the pick. Seattle -four and a half demons a what say you?

[Damanze]

I'm going to take New England in the points. I Think that Seattle go ahead.

[Hunter Woodhull]

No, I was gonna. I want to hear it. Go ahead.

[Damanze]

I think Seattle is going to jump on them early, but at the end of the game I think it's going to be pretty close. Like with Variable, I like, I like Rabel a lot and I do think that he'll be able to coach them into. I think that they're outmatched, but I think that he'll be able to coach them into a close game. But I do think the Patriots will lose.

[Hunter Woodhull]

Oh, so you. So just so you know, your pick of a Seattle win and Patriots cover while it's only happened once in the last 15 years, but that the team that covered didn't win. But. But that. But again that's a little misleading in that obviously every time an underdog wins outright, they cover. So you take that, you take out the nine times the underdogs won the last 15 years. That just means that with the six favorites that covered or that one five of them covered. The one that didn't however was a 4 1/2 point spread. It was Rams minus 4 1/2 against the Bengals when the Rams won by 3. Also the Sharps like your side of things. The sharp money is on Rams. I'm sorry Seattle to win, New England to cover. And now with that said, do not America parlay these picks together because you're not going to get fair value on the bet essentially is the Seahawks to win by 1, 2, 3 or 4 is what that you know the Seahawks win and Patriots cover. You're. That's going to pay you at around plus 400. That's. Don't, don't do that. There's better, there's smarter, better ways to make a bet. But I do where you're at demand say is you are on the sharp side of both the money line. The sharp money even laying all you have to lay is on Seattle and the point spread. The sharp money is on New England plus the four and a half. However, today's show is less about our game pick and more about our props picks. So we will get to those in just a second. But a reminder that today's show is brought to you by our presenting sponsor, Hard Rock BET Florida Sportsbook.

Travion Henderson under three and a half receiving yards at minus 1 20. I just don't he's not involved in passing plays and so I understand that seems like a crazy bet to be my favorite bet. That's my favorite one but we've got a bunch of others so tell there's two anytime. Touchdown Seahawks bets I like tell America.

[Damanze]

So you Like Kenneth Walker at minus 200 for. Oh, okay.

[Hunter Woodhull]

For.

[Damanze]

For minus 200. And you can also get him for two plus two two plus touchdowns for plus two 60.

[Hunter Woodhull]

Not doing that.

[Damanze]

And you also like Cooper cup at plus 260.

[Hunter Woodhull]

Yes. So I think Kenneth Walker's going to score and the -200 price says, you know, Vegas obviously agrees with me on it. I also think in the red zone that all the attention that is going to be demanded by Injigma could open things up for Cooper Cup. And because of that I like Cooper cup at plus 260. Yeah, there are the in jigba minus 110. I could see in Jigba having a big game and not scoring a touchdown. And so Kenneth Walker, I would be stunned if he doesn't score. And Cooper Cup I think there's good value at +2 60. Oddly my favorite anytime touchdown bet however is not one of the Seahawks, it's one of the Patriots.

[Damanze]

Who is and who would have known? Drake May at plus 275. Yeah.

[Hunter Woodhull]

So here's why. Pass interference, defensive holding, anything in the end zone that places the ball at the 1. The Patriots will do a quarterback snake. So there's that. Drake May has been excellent these playoffs running the ball. Seattle's defense, the one place it's really susceptible is quarterback scrambles. And I think Drake's going to be under duress and running the football. And at plus 275, I really like a Drake May rushing touchdown. Whether it's a quarterback scramble, a QB design run or a QB sneak, I like Drake +2.75 to score a touchdown. To score two touchdowns is 30 to 1. That's too much for me. But one touchdown +2.75. All right, those are all of our touchdown props. Now quarterback related props. First one, you got the over on.

[Damanze]

Sam Darnold's pass yards. It's over 20232 and a half at minus 1. 15.

[Hunter Woodhull]

Yeah. So let me just say something about super bowl prop markets, guys. If you can lean into two way markets, and by two way markets I mean where you can bet yes and no or over and under at 1. What the problem with one way markets is when you can only bet one side of it, you don't ever really know what the fair number is. But when they set Sam Darnold or any of these other ones, we're about to give you over the next 10 minutes or so when you can bet the over or under and it's the same number, you're just paying the 15 cent juice. You know that is the fair number that now you might not like the 15 cent juice but at least you know that's the real number and so that's going to inform a lot of my picks here and I think Darnold's going to have a good game. I think Darnold is going to I think the Pats run defense is stiff enough that they will be able to slow down Kenneth Walker and New and Seattle's going to have to succeed through the air and because of that I like Darnold to have at least 245 passing yards so I will go over 232 and a half and he's coming off the best game of his career in the biggest spot. I think Darnold's going to play well. I just give him credit for what he did in that conference championship game. I'll take the over there. I'm not touching Drake mays total of 2/23 and a half. I leaned under on that because I think the Pats are going to be trailing and have to throw. Well let me Sorry I leaned under because I think the Seahawks pass defense is going to be ferocious but I stayed away because if I'm right that the Pats are trailing late and have to throw it can get inflated. So I stayed away. I did though bet a different Drake May prop in the touchdown market. Damanze what is it?

[Damanze]

Drake may under one and a half passing touchdowns at minus 160 so again.

[Hunter Woodhull]

This is a two way market but the juice is obviously heavy on the under and you get +1 20 on the over. If if I think the Patriots are going to score less than 21 points and I think Drake May can run in a touchdown. We don't have enough room for more touchdowns there so it's a little correlated but I think that the Patriots are more likely to score on the ground than in the air against this Seattle defense. Hell we saw how much trouble Stafford had in the red zone try you know on their biggest drive of the season trying to convert that third and four and then fourth and four to go ahead there. So I'll take under Drake May there. I'm staying away from both interception markets. The over for Drake May or Sam Darnold to throw a pick is minus 150 for Drake, minus 135 for Darnold. I I think they both throw a pick but I don't want to lay that type of juice. However related to the Darnold over passing yards. Darnold's completion prop to Monze Sam Darnold.

[Damanze]

Over 19 and a half completions at minus 1 35.

[Hunter Woodhull]

Yeah so I just, I think it's going to be a lot of Darnold passes, not necessarily deep passes but a lot of Darnold passes. Something like a 24 of 30 game from him. So I, I think he's going to get plenty of opportunities. So I will take the over there. And now we're done with our quarterback props and Demase is going to give his five favorite props at the end. Let's go to our rushing and receiving props.

[Damanze]

So rush yards as Seahawks Rashid Shahid. You've got over four and a half at minus 1 15. A little jet sweep.

[Hunter Woodhull]

Jet sweep end around or for the same and I also so I have rashid sheet over four and a half at minus 115. I also have Jackson Smith and Jigba over a half at plus 275. So this is a tricky one. Damanze the Jackson Smith and Jigba but this could apply to Shahid as well. I think one of these guys is going to catch a wide receiver reverse a wide receiver screen.

[Damanze]

No, you had it and they throw.

[Hunter Woodhull]

It backwards when they look at it. It was thrown backwards. Exactly. And so I don't think in Jigba is going to be handed the ball and this is going to where I'm going to need the official scorekeeper to determine.

[Damanze]

Yeah.

[Hunter Woodhull]

Was that a lateral because then it's called rushing yards. I think one of them I think it Rashid could you know get it on an end around Rasheed or in Jigba could get a pass that goes backwards.

[Damanze]

One of your completions.

[Hunter Woodhull]

No, that is true. You're 100% right. It would take away completion for Darnold. So I think in Jigba +275/2 yards worth of flyer and then I've got a Sam Darnold rushing prop.

[Damanze]

Under 6 and a half at minus 115.

[Hunter Woodhull]

So why do you think I'm betting.

[Damanze]

That you think that Darnold is going to be kneeling at the end? Yes.

[Hunter Woodhull]

Yeah, correct. So I think that as long as Donald scramble anyways, not much.

[Damanze]

Right.

[Hunter Woodhull]

So as long as. As long as he doesn't have more than 10 yards rushing. I'm live because he can lose yards on the news now. Mahomes famously in one of his Super Bowls lost 17 yards on his final three kneel downs and ruined everybody.

[Narrator / Advertiser]

Yeah.

[Hunter Woodhull]

But the so I think, I think Darnold, it's certainly on the board. Darnold ends the game with zero yards rushing. That I'm sorry, with negative yards rushing. That he never scrambles and that he just takes knees at the end. But I'll take the under six and a half that can be live even if the over hits. Now for the Patriots, there is only one rushing prop I like. It's also a quarterback related one.

[Damanze]

It's a big one. You like drake may over 37 and a half at minus 120.

[Hunter Woodhull]

Yeah, I just think he's gonna have to be running a lot in this game and I think Seattle's susceptible to it. That is a huge number for a quarterback.

[Damanze]

Yeah. And then minus. That's not.

[Hunter Woodhull]

Yeah, a little juice. Minus 110 on the under. So a little juice on the over. But I like Drake May to have 45, 50 rushing yards and I'm not worried, you know, about him taking these at the end. So I'll lay that big number. All right.

[Damanze]

Receiving yards you got on the Seahawks side, Rashid Shahid at over 22 and a half at minus 1 15.

[Hunter Woodhull]

Yeah, I think one big Rasheed catch. Yeah, I, you know, I think one explosive Rasheed Shahid play and you know.

[Damanze]

I've been baby 15, 16 yards, like one more pass to him.

[Hunter Woodhull]

Right. Which by the way, I'm not sure, you know, he's not going to be a huge part of their, you know, down to down attack. But I think he could have one explosive reception. So I'll take over there. And then for the Patriots there's one under and one over. I like other than the Trayvon under three and a half which we already talked about.

[Damanze]

So you like the under 27 and a half at minus 1 15. Mac Hollins. Sorry.

[Hunter Woodhull]

For the receiving yards and in the so and say the Demario Douglas.

[Damanze]

Demario Douglas over ten and a half at minus 115 as well.

[Hunter Woodhull]

So I just think Douglas is going to be a bigger part of the game plan than Matt Collins. Douglas who caught the big fourth down touchdown catch and run against Houston was it that might have been. I don't know if that was Houston or if that was the Chargers. Regardless, Matt Collins had been out injured. Matt Collins came back last week, caught the flea flicker. I don't think Mack Holland is going to be a huge part of this game and I think Pop Douglas will make at least one catch. So pop Douglas over 10 and a half. Matt Collins under 27 and a half. Those are oddly a little correlated in my brain at least. So that's where I land on that. And now receptions, props receptions for Seahawks.

[Damanze]

We got Kenneth Walker iii at over two and eight over under two and a half at plus 100.

[Hunter Woodhull]

Yeah, I just don't think that they're gonna he's gonna have three catches. I think Ken I think that the the Patriots linebackers been pretty good this year covering running backs out of the backfield. I, I think Kenneth Walker's more going to be used, you know, as a blocker and as an actual running back. So I'll take under two and a half catches for him. And then there are two Patriots. I'll first let the I I'm just going to go down with the Trayvon Henderson is not going to be involved in the passing game ship I'll take under a half reception for him at plus one forty. That is, you know, directly tied to my under three and a half receiving yards for him at minus one fifteen. I just don't think he's going to catch a pass. And then what's the one over?

[Damanze]

I have you got Stefan Diggs over four and a half at minus one 25.

[Hunter Woodhull]

So I did not note notably Diggs is receiving yards is only 45 and a half and I'm not betting that I am betting him over receptions and we have seen some games like this this year for Diggs where his yards per reception are super low. Most the most notably in these playoffs where the playoff game against Denver, 5 catches, 17 yards playoff game against Houston, 4 catches 40 yards playoff game against the Chargers, 2 catches 16 yards. The he has had plenty of, you know, high not high but medium volume target games without a ton of yards to go along with it. So I feel more comfortable in him hitting the at least five catches than him hitting at least 50 yards. All right, let's Go to some of our defensive props. The guys I think are going to get a sack.

[Damanze]

Yeah. On the Seahawks side you've got Demarcus Lawrence over a half sack at plus 1:15 and then you got Leonard Williams over a half sack at plus one fifty.

[Hunter Woodhull]

Yeah, listen, I think DeMarcus Lawrence is going to put Will Campbell in hell and then eventually they're going to have to cheat over and help him and that'll open things up for Leonard Williams. As Drake May's taken five sacks in each of the three playoff games. Those are the two guys most likely to get sacks for the Seahawks. I'll take DeMarcus Lawrence and Leonard Williams. I'm not playing any kicker related props. I thought about Will Bore Gollas miss a field goal, decided to stay away from that and then I have one team total prop I like.

[Damanze]

Yeah. So you like the Patriots under 18 and a half points at 1:15 plus 1:15.

[Hunter Woodhull]

Yeah, I mean if the. I'm just gonna. My. If my score predictions 27 17. I'll just roll with the under because I'm getting a little bit of plus money on that and I have an extra point to play with. The Seahawks on the other hand, over 26 and a half is only plus 105. So that's not. I'm not getting a full point to play with from my score prediction and I'm not getting the extra 10 cents of juice. So I'm staying away from that there most passing yards prop Damanze it's basically a coin flip bet. Drake Mays minus 115. Sam Darnold's minus 120. As you guys can tell from how I think it's going to go, I like Darnold in that spot. And then one long shot flyer to Monze longest reception player to record the longest reception.

[Damanze]

Rashid Shahid at plus 700.

[Hunter Woodhull]

Listen, that's what he was brought in to do. He's done it already throughout, you know, his brief Seattle career. I think seven to one's a good bet. Jackson Smith and Jigma could blow this up on me. Keisha Booty could blow this up on me. But I'll take rasheed Shahid at plus 700. Oh, I lied to you guys. I am doing one field goal related prop which is longest successful field goal over under a 49 and a half. I'll go over good conditions. Jason Myers is a very good kicker. Andy Boregales has been very good from 50 plus. Better from 50 plus than he's been from 40 to 49. So I think that they will attempt, you know some each team will attempt a 50 plus yarder. I think at least one of them will make it. So I will take the over there and then two of my favorites to Monze the in the miscellaneous section if you scroll down. Yeah the so tell these are probably my two favorite bets and they're both plus money.

[Damanze]

So you got each team to record one plus successful fourth down conversion at plus 125.

[Hunter Woodhull]

And then players so let me hold on, let me, let me stay there. So Vrabel is going to go for fourth and shorts I Seattle's a little more conservative. I think they will as well. And it's crazy that this is now a plus. Like this is only plus 125. And I say that because it it's shown how much the NFL's evolved and changed over the last decade where it's not it's their basically saying it's damn near a coin flip whether or not both teams will convert a fourth down. But I think they both will. So I'll do that. And my favorite bet every super bowl, it's just the most fun bet to have action on. Total number of players to throw a pass over two and a half at plus one 60. So this is that the bummer way you can win this bet is a quarterback gets dinged up like and then you're just locked in to a win because a backup quarterback has to come in. But that's not why we bet it. We bet it because it means any trick play, fake punt, anything like that, you win. And Josh McDaniels loves him some trick plays. I wonder if the Seahawks will try to match it. It's just such a fun bet. Over two and a half for the over two and a half people to attempt to pass and the oh listen, my Super Bowl MVP pick is going to be Darnold. But that's such a boring one. It's plus 125. Like the I didn't even really include that. I'm not going to bet that. But that that is my pick. All right, demanze's props coming up in just a second.

[Damanze]

So Cooper cup most reception yards at plus 1300.

[Hunter Woodhull]

Wow.

[Damanze]

Jackson, Smith and Jigba. I understand he's more likely to have the bigger game, but it was like minus 190 or something like that.

[Hunter Woodhull]

Yeah.

[Damanze]

And I think Cooper cup, he's been in a Super bowl before. It's not totally outlandish. Exactly. I don't think it's totally outlandish that he ends up with the most reception yards and at plus 1300 with that juice.

[Hunter Woodhull]

I love it. I love. I mean, that's a Fun 1. At 13 to 1. All right, next.

[Damanze]

Sam Darnold. Under 2, 232 and a half passing yards at minus 1 20.

[Hunter Woodhull]

My heart.

[Damanze]

Yeah, I. I just. I don't think he's gonna. I think he will throw right around that, but I don't think he'll throw over. I think there will be a mistake. I don't know, maybe penalties leading to less yardage, but I just don't. I don't see him throwing for that amount of yardage.

[Hunter Woodhull]

Okay.

[Damanze]

And Stefan Diggs to catch on New England's first drive at plus 1:30. I mean, hopefully it's not that I.

[Hunter Woodhull]

Was gonna say, yeah, this can be. This is a stone loser earlier.

[Damanze]

100 immediately. And I just. If I think Drake may. He's got to throw it to Diggs in his first couple throws. One of the more reliable receivers on the team, I guess. But. But yeah, Kenneth Walker anytime. Touchdown at minus 200. Probably the most simple one on here. And then Seattle -5 and a half at the first half at +1 25. Oh, yeah, I think Seattle. Yeah. I have Seattle minus the five and a half and New England plus the four and a half for the.

[Hunter Woodhull]

For the spray. Might be worth parlaying just because I think the odds on that would be sick.

[Damanze]

Right.

[Hunter Woodhull]

Like Seattle -5 and a half in the first half plus 1:25 parlayed with new England plus. I mean, that's so anti correlated that you might get a sick payout on that, but. Okay. All right. I like those five. And you have a bonus one, I'm told.

[Damanze]

Bonus. Amen. I don't have inside info or anything. The Gatorade color is going to be yellow, green or lime. This year and that's at +275. That's a little fun one for you guys.

[Hunter Woodhull]

Love it.

[Damanze]

It's going to be lime green. That that Parlay would be plus 8:56.

[Hunter Woodhull]

Seattle minus five and a half in New England to cover at plus 8.56 is pretty, pretty fun. That's better than Seattle to win. New England to cover like this is at plus 400. That's fun. All right, Annual tradition to monze the offer.

[Damanze]

It's super bowl, so you know what time it is. The offer. Is any player going to record an octopus this year at 1400. Are you going to accept it this year?

[Hunter Woodhull]

So I never knew what an octopus was. I thought the producers made it up and I made fun of you guys. And then somebody Jalen hurts did it. Yeah, the is I think how I remember it. No, I'm not accepting it.

[Damanze]

No.

[Hunter Woodhull]

No one's going to do it. I will go down. I will be drugged down to the bottom of the ocean by the octopus. I'm not betting the octopus. And so I'm going to say no. That is a fun. I didn't ever even knew what that was prior to a couple Super Bowls ago. All right, this was a great year of gambling shows. Everyone enjoy the super bowl reminder.
