Munaf Manji and Dave Essler talk NFL betting for Sunday. Munaf Manji and Uncle Dave Essler deliver the NFL Week 7 Weekend Preview on the Straight Outta Vegas AM feed, sharpening sides, totals, player props and Survivor picks with Friday injury reports in hand. The episode opens at 0:00 with a Thursday Night Football recap, as Cairo Santos split the uprights from 58 yards late to send Bears vs Patriots over the total while Chicago covered in a 30 to 24 win. At 1:56 the conversation moves to Paris, where the Steelers lay three against the Saints with a total of 44.5. Dave argues both recent wins were really about the opponent beating itself, and backs Pittsburgh, the under and a Saints team total under, while Munaf leans on Aaron Rodgers, DK Metcalf, Germie Bernard and a T.J. Watt pass rush against Tyler Shough. At 5:31 the hosts tackle 49ers at Falcons, with Nick Bosa, Deebo Samuel and Mike Evans all out for San Francisco. Dave calls it the game he least wants to touch, and both lean under if the total climbs to 50. At 10:13 Baker Mayfield returns for Tampa Bay, but a total that dropped despite heavy over money pushes Dave toward Carolina and the under, with Tetairoa McMillan receiving overs his favorite angle and Munaf backing Panthers minus three. At 14:52 the Bengals come off a bye to face a Ravens team with a limping Lamar Jackson, and both hosts side with Cincinnati as Munaf makes the case for Ja’Marr Chase over 78.5 receiving yards after games of 193, 264, 110 and 132 yards in his last four meetings with Baltimore. At 20:03 Packers at Lions carries a 53.5 total, with Dave on the Lions team total over and Munaf on the over plus a Packers team total over 25.5 as Josh Jacobs returns and Detroit sits 5 and 0 to the over. At 24:39 the Rams visit Las Vegas without Davante Adams and with Puka Nacua questionable, and both hosts take the Raiders as home underdogs under Klint Kubiak with Kirk Cousins playing efficient football. At 29:05 Sunday Night Football brings the Chiefs to the defending champion Seahawks, where Dave explains how Kenneth Walker III can help Eric Bieniemy attack the Aden Durde defense he practiced against for years, and both hosts take Kansas City plus three while Munaf adds Travis Kelce under 46.5 receiving yards. At 34:31 the guys trade quick takes on Dolphins vs Jets and Browns vs Titans, with Dave leaning Tennessee against heavy public money on Cleveland. At 36:41 Munaf highlights the free Beat JRO NBA Contest and promo code AUDIBLE20 at Pregame.com for 20 dollars off one month of NFL and college football picks. At 39:09 the Survivor segment names the Texans and Vikings as the top options, with the Cardinals, Dolphins and Panthers offered as flyers for multi entry players.

Munaf Manji and SleepyJ talk NFL player props for Week 7. Munaf Manji and Sleepy J return on the Straight Outta Vegas AM feed with the NFL Week 7 player props podcast from the Pregame.com Podcast Network, delivering four player props each, two anytime touchdown plays and the pod best bet. Munaf arrives after sweeping his player props four and zero last week, and the pod best bet cashed comfortably on Matthew Golden on Sunday Night Football, while Sleepy notes that every pick on this episode also went out to his clients. The quarterback segment begins near the 2 minute mark with Sleepy taking Kyler Murray over 202.5 passing yards, arguing that a Colts pass defense that faced Athan Kaliakmanis, Aaron Rodgers and Cam Ward looks better than it is, while a rested Vikings offense gets Jordan Addison, T.J. Hockenson and Jordan Mason back with Justin Jefferson expected to play. Around the 4 minute mark Munaf flips to the other side with Daniel Jones to throw an interception at minus 119, pointing to a Brian Flores defense that has intercepted every quarterback it has faced except Malik Willis and to Jones throwing a pick in all three career meetings with Minnesota. The running back props follow at the 7 minute mark, as Sleepy backs Ashton Jeanty over 79.5 rushing plus receiving yards against a Rams run defense ranked seventh worst, with Davante Adams out and Jeanty drawing six or more targets in five of his last six games, and Munaf answers near the 10 minute mark with Bijan Robinson over 26.5 receiving yards against a 49ers defense that allows just under 80 rushing yards per game but gives up 46 receiving yards per game to running backs. Sleepy opens the wide receiver segment at the 13 minute mark with DK Metcalf and Germie Bernard both over 4.5 catches against the Saints in Paris after the duo combined for 27 targets last week in a quick release Aaron Rodgers offense, with a parlay of both available at plus 170. Munaf counters near the 17 minute mark with Malik Nabers over 68.5 receiving yards as JJ McCarthy starts against a Texans secondary allowing 195.5 receiving yards per game, though Sleepy warns a new quarterback could try to do too much against a defense that has finally woken up. At tight end near the 22 minute mark, Sleepy lays chalk on Tucker Kraft to record four or more receptions at minus 190 against a Lions defense that has allowed nine touchdowns and more than 500 yards to the position, and Munaf fades Travis Kelce under 46.5 receiving yards in Seattle, citing a Seahawks unit allowing roughly 25 yards per game to tight ends and an ankle injury that limited Kelce in practice, while Sleepy pushes back that Patrick Mahomes leans on a healthier Kelce in big games. The touchdown props arrive at the 31 minute mark with Sleepy predicting a two and zero week behind Kyren Williams at minus 155 and Munaf taking Jaylen Warren at minus 120 against a Saints defense that has allowed a rushing touchdown to every opposing running back. Sleepy then highlights the Beat JR contest for the NBA season and code TOUCHDOWN20 for 20 dollars off a month of NFL and college football picks at Pregame.com. The episode closes at the 36 minute mark with the pod best bet, now four and two on the season, on Ja’Marr Chase over 78.5 receiving yards against Baltimore, as Chase comes off the Bengals bye with at least 12 targets and 110 yards in each of his last four meetings with the Ravens, a matchup Marlon Humphrey admitted he would rather avoid.

Munaf Manji and Dave Essler talk World Series betting. Cash That Ticket returns for one more baseball session as Munaf Manji and Uncle Diamond Dave Essler deliver the official 2026 World Series preview from the Pregame.com Podcast Network, breaking down the Milwaukee Brewers and Tampa Bay Rays with series prices, exact game props, MVP odds and their official picks. The episode opens at the 1 minute mark with Dave noting these were the two best teams in their leagues all season, yet few expected either to be here. Near the 2 minute mark Munaf lays out the resumes, with the Brewers winning the NL Central at 103 and 59 under Pat Murphy, posting a league best plus 214 run differential, going 55 and 26 at home and sweeping the Dodgers, while the Rays topped the AL East at 98 and 64 under Kevin Cash with the same home record. DraftKings lists Milwaukee at minus 165 and Tampa Bay at plus 145. At the 4 minute mark Dave frames Game 1 as rest or rust for Jacob Misiorowski, who has not pitched in nearly two weeks, and points to a pricing gap with the Brewers around minus 215 in the first five innings but only minus 161 for the full game despite the better bullpen. Munaf follows near the 6 minute mark with postseason numbers, including a 2.03 staff ERA for Milwaukee and a 2.59 mark for Tampa Bay, and the 7 minute mark brings Dave to a contrarian look at the first five over 3 in Game 1, reasoning that everyone expects a low scoring game. Near the 10 minute mark Munaf calls both managers elite and praises Drew Rasmussen, who has allowed three earned runs in 21 postseason innings with a 1.29 ERA. Dave answers at the 12 minute mark that Game 1 matters more to Milwaukee because of expectations, gives Kevin Cash a slight edge and takes the Rays at plus 145, arguing shortened postseason rotations narrow the gap. At the 14 minute mark Munaf runs through the series menu, with over 5.5 games at minus 180, over 6.5 games at plus 205 and Brewers to win Game 1 and the series at plus 120, and Dave calls Game 2, likely Logan Henderson against Freddy Peralta, the pivotal game, noting Peralta knows the Brewers lineup better than anyone. The MVP market comes up near the 17 minute mark with four of the top five favorites on Milwaukee, Junior Caminero the lone Rays name and Peralta at 40 to 1. Munaf makes his official pick at the 18 minute mark, Brewers to win the World Series at minus 165 plus Brewers to win Game 1 and the series at plus 120, and imagines a scoreless duel decided by the bullpens. Near the 22 minute mark the hosts note neither franchise has won a title, with the Brewers falling to the Cardinals in seven games in 1982, and Dave tabs Chandler Simpson and Jake Bauers as the unexpected heroes who could swing the series, while Munaf adds Christian Yelich chasing his first ring and Yandy Díaz after his big home run in the ALCS clincher. At the 26 minute mark Dave adds Rays plus 1.5 games at minus 145, and Munaf closes with the schedule, the free Beat JR contest for up to 1,000 dollars in Pregame bucks and code REPLAY20 for 20 dollars off 30 days of NFL and college football picks through November 2. Both hosts agree on one final point, this series will not be a sweep. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Lonte Smith and Dave Essler talk betting for College Football Week 8 Lonte Smith and Dave Essler return for Week 8 of the RJ Bell Dream Preview from the Pregame.com Podcast Network, delivering a sharp college football betting breakdown with sides, totals, team totals and two best bets. Dave arrives on a heater with only one best bet loss all season after cashing Air Force last week, while Lonte sits at three and four and is chasing a return to break even and beyond. The episode opens near the 1 minute mark with Tennessee visiting South Carolina, where the Gamecocks are favored by 2.5 as an unranked team against a ranked opponent, a spot Lonte notes has produced 63 wins and 33 losses straight up in his Power 4 sample. Dave points to five straight high scoring meetings and the ability of LaNorris Sellers to put points on the board as reasons to back the Gamecocks and the over, while Lonte also sides with South Carolina on the moneyline but expects a defensive game against a Tennessee unit under Jim Knowles that leads the nation in scoring defense, allows about 159 passing yards per game and has 30 sacks through seven games, with the Vols quarterback situation between Faizon Brandon and George MacIntyre still unsettled. Around the 6 minute mark the hosts move to USC at Wisconsin, and both like the Badgers and the under, with Dave citing a Wisconsin defense whose only losses came to UCLA and Notre Dame, a revenge angle from 2024 and a Luke Fickell program that needs this game more, while Lonte highlights a secondary ranked 10th in EPA per pass allowed and suggests grabbing plus 3 where available despite a penalty problem that cost the Badgers more than 100 yards last week. Virginia Tech at Clemson follows near the 11 minute mark, with both hosts on the under in Death Valley as Clemson has failed to top 28 points against any FBS opponent and has thrown just two touchdown passes in six games, while Lonte waits on a 3 to back James Franklin and the Hokies and likes the first half under as well. At the 15 minute mark LSU visits Auburn laying 7, and Lonte sees Lane Kiffin and his Tigers pulling away late for a double digit win, while Dave prefers Auburn plus the points and the under, noting that Alex Golesh and his team already beat Georgia and that LSU still looks overvalued. The strongest agreement comes near the 20 minute mark on Ole Miss plus 3.5 at Texas, as Lonte calls Trinidad Chambliss the best player on the field with Colin Simmons likely out for Texas, and Dave argues the Rebels play with a chip on their shoulder while the Longhorns have fallen from first to 19th in ten days. Dave delivers his best bet at the 24 minute mark, taking Stanford plus 6.5 against NC State on Friday night and fading an ACC team traveling coast to coast, and Lonte answers at the 25 minute mark with Tulsa on the moneyline against Army, pointing to a defensive line that has now seen three straight option style quarterbacks and a series of Army games in which nine of the last ten against FBS teams were decided by four points or fewer. The rapid fire segment covers Indiana at Michigan, where both like the under and Michigan plus 7, a Texas Tech team total over at Cincinnati, Oklahoma and the Mississippi State team total under in the Jeff Lebby Bowl, an Aggies team total under at Alabama, North Dakota State plus 4.5 at New Mexico on a market move Dave calls a math problem, and a Houston team total under at Utah where altitude could take a toll after halftime. The show closes with a reminder about accountability, shopping for the best number and betting responsibly. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Munaf Manji and Dave Essler talk NFL Recap for Week 6 and talk MNF Commanders at 49ers. Munaf Manji and Diamond Dave Essler deliver the NFL Week 6 Weekend Rewind on the Pregame.com Podcast Network, recapping every Sunday result, the biggest injury news in the league and the first Week 7 lines worth a look. At 0:56 Dave sets the theme of the weekend, noting that every winner on Sunday also won the turnover battle except New England, which survived the Jets thanks to a big edge in the red zone and on third down. At 1:45 the guys break down the Texans 34 to 31 win over the Jaguars in London, a cash for Dave as a best bet on the RJ Bell Dream Preview, with C.J. Stroud throwing for 312 yards and three touchdowns and Marvin Harrison Jr. clearing his prop in his Houston debut. Dave explains why a loss would have let Jacksonville all but clinch the AFC South in October. At 6:43 Caleb Williams returns and completes his first 12 passes as the Bears beat the Falcons 31 to 23, and Dave says that slowing down Bijan Robinson is the blueprint against Atlanta, a team he is downgrading in a big way. At 11:30 the Browns grind out a 13 to 10 win over a Ravens team playing without Lamar Jackson, and Dave questions why the market still treats Cleveland as a short favorite at Tennessee. At 15:19 the Titans win their first game of the season over the Colts despite gaining just 186 yards, the Colts fire general manager Chris Ballard the next morning, and Dave says the real Daniel Jones has arrived while pinning the problem on coaching rather than the front office. At 21:04 the Saints rally past the Giants 34 to 27 behind a plus three turnover margin, and Dave digs into the Cam Skattebo situation under John Harbaugh and the quarterback questions surrounding J.J. McCarthy and Tyler Shough. At 28:14 the Panthers handle the Eagles 25 to 14, and Munaf delivers the biggest news of the weekend, that Jalen Hurts is out for the season after doctors found multiple blood clots in his lungs, leaving Tanner McKee in charge of a reeling Philadelphia offense. At 32:57 Drake Maye throws three touchdowns in a win over the Jets, though the Patriots head into a short week with injuries to Romeo Doubs, Alijah Vera-Tucker, Morgan Moses and Ben Brown. At 36:09 Aaron Rodgers rallies the Steelers past rookie Jalon Daniels and the Buccaneers in overtime, a win Dave refuses to upgrade. At 39:47 Kenneth Walker III powers the Chiefs past the winless Chargers 22 to 6, and Dave says he would be all over Kansas City at plus 3 in Seattle. At 42:56 the Cardinals stun the Rams 18 to 16 as 12.5 point underdogs, and Dave questions why Los Angeles is still laying points on the road in Las Vegas. At 48:02 Josh Allen and the Bills outlast Kirk Cousins and the Raiders 33 to 30, with Dave still worried about the Buffalo defense. At 51:57 the Packers beat the Cowboys 23 to 13 by forcing two Dak Prescott interceptions, and Dave would take Green Bay plus 3.5 at Detroit with Josh Jacobs due back. At 56:18 Munaf shares the Pregame.com football special, every NFL and college football best bet for 30 days at 195 dollars, reduced to 175 dollars with coupon code DRIVE20 through October 26. At 57:36 the guys preview Monday Night Football between the Commanders and the 49ers, with Dave leaning toward San Francisco in the first half and the Washington team total under, and Munaf leaning toward the full game under 51.5. Dave also flags the Colts team total under next week and likes Carolina at home against Tampa Bay, giving bettors plenty to build a Week 7 card around. Learn more about your ad choices.

Lonte Smith and Dave Essler talk betting for College Football. Week 7 of the college football season brings a loaded card to the RJ Bell Dream Preview as Munaf Manji and Dave Essler of Cash That Ticket break down five featured games, deliver two best bets and fire through six more matchups in a lightning round. The show opens at 0:31 with a look at the midpoint of the season before the guys dive into the biggest game on the board at 1:21, No. 4 Ohio State at No. 5 Indiana in a rematch of the Big Ten title game from last season, which Indiana won 13 to 10. Munaf sees a battle in the trenches and a vulnerable Indiana secondary facing Jeremiah Smith, and he likes Ohio State tight end props, while Dave explains at 3:10 why Indiana is good but not great after losing its quarterback to the draft and why the Buckeyes, fresh off a bye, are his play on the team total over around 27. At 6:19 the conversation moves to Wallace Wade Stadium for Duke and North Carolina in the battle for the Victory Bell, where Munaf backs the Blue Devils in a classic fade spot for a UNC team coming off its first top 25 win under Bill Belichick, and Dave counters at 7:42 by trusting Belichick and the next man up approach over Manny Diaz, with Munaf adding the under 47.5. Florida at Texas follows at 10:20, and with the Gators losing two straight blowouts and the Longhorns trying to recover from the Oklahoma collapse, Dave breaks the game into derivatives at 11:48, taking Texas in the first half, the Texas first half team total over and the Florida team total under. At 13:43 the guys head to the Rose Bowl for Wisconsin at UCLA, a game reshaped by the season ending injury to Nico Iamaleava, and Munaf likes the Badgers and the under while waiting for a 3, but Dave refuses to step off the Bruins ledge at 15:51, praising Bob Chesney and a UCLA team that held Oregon to 15 points. The final featured game at 18:36 sends No. 6 Alabama to Neyland Stadium to face No. 14 Tennessee, where a total that dropped from 55 to 51.5 tells Dave that the Vols quarterback situation is shaky, so he leans Alabama and the Tennessee team total under, and Munaf agrees, noting Tennessee ranks 110th in passing offense and leans on DeSean Bishop and his 676 rushing yards. Best bets arrive at 24:13, with Dave taking Air Force at home over UNLV, calling Dan Mullen overrated and citing the altitude and the way service academies improve as the season goes on. Munaf answers at 26:39 with the Texas full game team total over 30.5, pointing to a Florida defense that ranks outside the top 100 in EPA per play and 123rd in success rate allowed. The rapid fire round begins at 27:56 with SMU in the first half against Virginia, the Missouri team total under against Ole Miss, Kentucky against Oklahoma, Oklahoma State plus the points at Houston behind quarterback Drew Mestemaker, the Mississippi State team total under at LSU, and a split decision on Notre Dame at BYU, where Munaf likes the Irish to roll and Dave prefers the home dog and the under in Provo. The show wraps at 35:14 with a reminder that the full card, not just the best bets, tells the real story, so tune in, grab your numbers early and join Munaf and Dave every week on Pregame.com for sharp college football betting analysis.

Munaf Manji and Dave Essler talk NFL Week 5 recap and preview MNF Bills at Rams Munaf Manji and Dave Essler run back every Sunday result from Week 5 of the NFL season and preview Monday Night Football between the Buffalo Bills and the Los Angeles Rams on this edition of the Weekend Rewind Show. At 0:56 the conversation opens in Houston, where the Texans earned their first win of the season, a 26 to 3 handling of the Titans, with DeMeco Ryans back calling the defense and Marvin Harrison Jr. reuniting with C.J. Stroud in what Dave calls a much needed reset. At 3:41 the guys break down the Jaguars beating a short handed Eagles team on a 57 yard Cam Little field goal with one second left, and Dave calls the Eagles price a classic market overreaction after watching Jalen Carter dominate the Jacksonville line. At 7:45 the Bengals hold off the Dolphins 31 to 24 behind four Joe Burrow touchdown passes, but Miami running for 217 yards leaves Dave leery of the Cincinnati defense. At 11:18 the Packers crush the Bears 31 to 7 as Jordan Love throws for 367 yards, and Dave admits he is holding the scissors over his Bears division ticket. At 18:41 Drake Maye throws four touchdowns in a 45 to 17 Patriots blowout of the Raiders, and at 23:47 the Vikings move to 5 and 0 by holding the Saints to 142 total yards, even as Dave keeps waiting for the fraud alarm to sound. At 28:00 the Giants and Commanders finish 27 to 27 after Washington blows a 14 point home lead with brutal clock management, and Dave would upgrade New York and downgrade Washington going forward. At 32:52 the Jets beat the Browns 17 to 12 in what Dave calls a battle of which team was less bad, and at 36:07 Jaylen Warren piles up 188 scrimmage yards as the Steelers beat the Colts 34 to 22. At 39:02 Dave cashes his best bet as the 49ers win 32 to 29 at Seattle to stay unbeaten, with Mike Evans going for 113 yards while the Seahawks commit four turnovers and settle for five field goals. At 44:01 the Lions hammer the Cardinals 45 to 21 behind 151 rushing yards from Jahmyr Gibbs, cashing a Munaf team total, though Dave is still not buying the Detroit defense. At 48:58 the Broncos score the final 13 points to keep the Chargers winless, and Dave likes the Chargers plus 8.5 at Kansas City. At 53:41 Tyler Huntley leads the Ravens to a 30 to 23 overtime win in Atlanta after Michael Penix Jr. goes down, and at 56:22 the guys survey a wide open NFC South where Dave could be talked into a small Buccaneers futures bet. At 57:47 the Monday Night Football preview begins, with the Rams laying 3 to 3.5 and a total of 54.5. Dave says when in doubt take the points, backs Josh Allen plus more than a field goal and likes Keon Coleman props, while Munaf leans over the total, citing a Bills team that is 25 and 8 straight up and 21 and 12 against the spread off a loss since 2019. Along the way the hosts flag the key injuries for Week 6, preview early lines from London to Lambeau, and explain why looking back at where you have been is the best way to know where you are going as a bettor.

Munaf Manji and SleepyJ talk player prop betting for week 5. NFL Week 5 Player Props: Best Bets for QB, RB, WR, TE and Anytime Touchdown Scorers Munaf Manji and Sleepy J build a full Week 5 player prop card, covering anytime touchdown scorers, quarterbacks, running backs, wide receivers, and tight ends. The common thread is volume, matchup, and game script, and several picks correlate with each other. Anytime Touchdowns: Sleepy J takes DK Metcalf to score at +155 against an Indianapolis Colts pass defense he calls one of the worst in the league. Metcalf is Aaron Rodgers' top target but has found the end zone only once, a gap Sleepy J expects to close. Munaf goes back to Nico Collins at +120 on DraftKings against the Tennessee Titans. Collins has scored in each of his last four meetings with Tennessee and in both games he has played this season, and his target share from C.J. Stroud outweighs a low 38.5 total. Quarterbacks: Sleepy J fades Brock Purdy under 225.5 passing yards in Seattle against the league's top pass defense, which allows just 144 yards per game. With fullback Kyle Juszczyk out, he expects San Francisco to lean on the run, and Munaf adds that Purdy threw for only 159 and 127 yards in two recent trips against Seattle. Munaf backs Josh Allen over 1.5 passing touchdowns against the Los Angeles Rams at -105. The total sits at 54.5, the Rams have allowed multiple touchdown passes to Purdy, Bo Nix, and Jalen Hurts, and Allen has thrown three or more in all three career meetings with Los Angeles. Running Backs: Sleepy J likes Bhayshul Tuten over 58.5 rushing yards against the Philadelphia Eagles in London. Tuten has cleared this number in three of four games, every starting back has gone over it against Philadelphia, and with Jacksonville a 7.5 point favorite and Zack Baun likely out, the Jaguars should run late. Munaf takes Quinshon Judkins over 56.5 against the New York Jets, who were run on by Jahmyr Gibbs, Kyle Monangai, and D'Andre Swift in back to back weeks. Judkins has 35 carries over his last two games, and Sleepy J credits Todd Monken's run scheme for his growth. Wide Receivers: Sleepy J backs Carnell Tate over 50.5 receiving yards against the Houston Texans after a nine catch, 145 yard game. Houston allows 207.5 yards per game to wide receivers and was just carved up by Dak Prescott and CeeDee Lamb. Munaf takes Michael Wilson over 71.5 against the Detroit Lions, who allow 207.25 yards per game to receivers. Wilson has drawn 30 targets in his last two games with 89 and 95 yards, and with Detroit a 5.5 point road favorite in a 54.5 total, Arizona should be throwing. Tight Ends: Sleepy J's featured play is a FanDuel parlay at -180 with Trey McBride 6+ receptions and Sam LaPorta 4+ receptions. McBride has six or more catches in all four games, LaPorta has four or more in three of his last four, and both face defenses among the worst against tight ends. He also flags Mike Gesicki and Kenyon Sadiq overs once posted, with Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins banged up. Munaf takes George Kittle under 58.5 receiving yards against a Seattle defense allowing just 29 tight end yards per game. Key takeaways from this episode: Anytime TD: DK Metcalf +155 and Nico Collins +120 QB: Brock Purdy under 225.5 passing yards and Josh Allen over 1.5 passing TDs RB: Bhayshul Tuten over 58.5 and Quinshon Judkins over 56.5 rushing yards WR: Carnell Tate over 50.5 and Michael Wilson over 71.5 receiving yards TE: McBride 6+ and LaPorta 4+ receptions parlay at -180, plus George Kittle under 58.5 Correlated angles: the Purdy and Kittle unders in Seattle, and three Cardinals vs Lions plays in a 54.5 total shootout Episode rundown: Anytime touchdown scorers Quarterback props Running back props Wide receiver props Tight end props Subscribe for more NFL player props and betting picks from the Pregame.com Podcast Network. #NFL #NFLPicks #NFLWeek5 #PlayerProps #AnytimeTouchdown #BrockPurdy #JoshAllen #TreyMcBride #SamLaPorta #GeorgeKittle #NFLBetting #SportsBetting #Pregame Learn more about your ad choices.

At 3:02 Munaf reveals dogs went 9 and 5 and 1 against the spread and 6 and 9 straight up, before the crew breaks down the Colts beating the Commanders 30 to 13 in London after Marcus Mariota left with a knee injury. At 6:52 the focus shifts to Buffalo, where Drake Maye threw for 269 yards and three touchdowns in a 29 to 26 Patriots upset, and Dave admits he is still not buying that New England is all the way back while Sleepy calls it a season saving win. At 14:06 Jacoby Brissett throws three interceptions as the Giants beat the Cardinals 36 to 24 and climb to 3 and 1. At 20:10 Kyle Monangai runs for 146 yards and two scores as the Bears beat the Jets, and the crew splits on whether Chicago deserves to be a road favorite at Green Bay, with Sleepy predicting Case Keenum could start at 27:33. At 29:04 the Jaguars upset the Bengals as Chase suffers a concussion and Higgins also goes down, and Dave reminds everyone that the team making the fewest mistakes usually wins. At 37:56 the Rams rally from a 20 to 10 halftime hole in Philadelphia behind Puka Nacua and Kyren Williams, and Sleepy names the banged up Eagles his biggest downgrade of the week. At 43:21 the Packers survive the winless Buccaneers and Jalon Daniels, and even Sleepy, a Green Bay fan, downgrades both teams. At 46:43 Lamar Jackson leaves with an ankle injury as Baltimore beats Tennessee, and Dave upgrades the Titans in defeat. At 51:24 CeeDee Lamb catches 17 passes as Dallas drops Houston to 0 and 4, and Sleepy jumps on the Titans plus 7 against the Texans next week. At 58:06 the Vikings stay perfect with an ugly win over Miami that Dave calls a C game victory. At 1:00:40 Kenneth Walker III runs for 177 yards as the Chiefs edge the Raiders 30 to 27, and both analysts upgrade Las Vegas in the loss while Kansas City deals with injuries to Rashee Rice and Tyquan Thornton. At 1:05:22 the 49ers beat Denver to reach 4 and 0, and the Broncos lose Pat Bryant, Patrick Surtain II and Riley Moss. At 1:09:43 Seattle beats the Chargers as Justin Herbert throws two interceptions, and Dave and Sleepy disagree on the Chargers catching 3.5 against Denver. At 1:14:53 Bryce Young and Tetairoa McMillan, who caught 14 passes for 192 yards and two touchdowns, torch the Lions on Sunday Night Football, and Sleepy targets plus money Cardinals receiver props against a Detroit secondary he calls absolutely brutal. At 1:20:54 the crew previews Falcons at Saints on Monday Night Football with New Orleans favored by 1.5 and a total of 47.5, leaning toward points, the Falcons team total, Tyler Shough passing props and Kendre Miller over his rushing yards.

At 2:02 Munaf runs through the injuries that move the board, including DeVonta Smith and Dallas Goedert out for the Philadelphia Eagles, Justin Jefferson out for the Minnesota Vikings, Puka Nacua back for the Los Angeles Rams with Terrance Ferguson and Aaron Donald sidelined, Christian Gonzalez out for the New England Patriots and Marcus Mariota starting again for the Washington Commanders in place of Jayden Daniels. At 3:33 the crew heads to London, where the Indianapolis Colts are 4.5 point favorites with a total of 47.5. Sleepy loves Tyler Warren over 46.5 receiving yards in a concentrated Colts attack, Dave notes that Washington blitzes at the second highest rate in the league yet has only five sacks and leans over, and Munaf would take the Commanders plus the points if forced to choose. At 7:17 Munaf brings a striking trend to Jacksonville at Cincinnati, where the Jaguars are 1 and 24 straight up since 1999 when the total is 49 or higher. Dave jokes that the trend reaches back to Mark Brunell and still backs the Jaguars in a last possession game fueled by Liam Coen and the Travis Hunter storyline, while Sleepy and Munaf pass on the side and lean over 51.5. At 13:12 the panel lands its strongest opinion of the week on the Rams at the Eagles. Sleepy says sell Philly, arguing that Jalen Hurts struggles without Goedert, the offensive line cannot pass block and the Eagles may not reach 10 points. Munaf adds that the Rams are 10 and 3 straight up and against the spread as a road favorite off a loss since 2018, and Dave believes the Rams should be favored by six. At 21:40 the Denver Broncos visit the San Francisco 49ers at three with a total of 47.5, and with Nick Bosa out and Mike Evans and Dre Greenlaw banged up, Dave likes Denver and the under, Sleepy teases the Broncos up to 8.5 and Munaf joins the under. At 28:50 Sunday Night Football brings the Detroit Lions to Carolina as 3.5 point favorites, and with Jaycee Horn and Mike Jackson on injured reserve and Xavier Legette and Damien Lewis out, the crew backs the Lions team total over 27.5 along with Sam LaPorta and Amon Ra St. Brown overs, while watching a rainy forecast that could move the total. At 37:29 Sleepy shares Pregame.com code SCREEN15 for 15 dollars off anything. At 39:31 the Survivor conversation warns against the Minnesota Vikings, highlights the Miami Dolphins as a sharp underdog, makes a case for the Arizona Cardinals and the Rams, and Sleepy commits to the Buffalo Bills on the advice of Dave. Dave closes at 50:26 with the Kansas City Chiefs over the Las Vegas Raiders, citing Patrick Mahomes and his 13 and 2 career record against Las Vegas, before Munaf previews the Monday weekend rewind and the Atlanta Falcons at the New Orleans Saints.

Lonte Smith and Dave Essler talk betting for CFB Week 5 Lonte Smith and Uncle Dave Essler return for the Week 5 edition of RJ Bell's Dream Preview, College Football Edition, determined to bounce back from the first 0 and 2 week of the season while keeping the overall best bet record in the black, with Lonte at 2 and 2 and Dave at 3 and 1. At 1:58 the show opens with number 7 Alabama visiting Mississippi State at Davis Wade Stadium, where the Tide opened 6.5 point favorites before the line dipped to 5.5 or 6 and the total climbed to 60.5. Dave warns against recency bias after Alabama scored 50 on Florida State, pointing out that the Seminoles also scored 36 and piled up nearly 500 yards on that defense, and with Georgia coming to Tuscaloosa next week he takes the Mississippi State team total over. Lonte backs the Bulldogs in the first half, citing their first 4 and 0 start since 2014, a defense allowing 3.2 yards per carry, three straight 100 yard games from Fluff Bothwell and the blitz chess match between Kane Wommack and Kamario Taylor. At 6:53 the hosts turn to Virginia at Florida State, and both like the home underdog, with Lonte projecting a 23 to 20 grinder fueled by Ashton Daniels running the football and Dave calling it a potential career defining game for Mike Norvell ahead of trips to Louisville and Miami. At 10:14 Alex Golesh returns to Neyland Stadium as the Auburn head coach to face Josh Heupel, and Dave takes the Tennessee team total over after the Vols managed only 2.9 yards per play against Texas, while Lonte breaks down the North Carolina quarterback duel between Byrum Brown and Faizon Brandon and notes Auburn ranks among the worst coverage teams in the Power 4. At 15:06 Baylor at Arizona State gets labeled a volatile game, sharp money has pushed the line toward the Bears and the total down from 51 to 49.5, and both hosts land on the under while Dave admits he cannot get behind DJ Lagway. At 19:59 number 8 Florida visits Missouri laying 4.5, Dave calls the Tigers a paper tiger after they allowed almost 500 yards to Mississippi State and goes back to the Florida team total over after cashing it last week, and Lonte highlights Jadan Baugh and more than 600 rushing yards with 11 touchdowns before leaning to the over. At 25:20 Dave delivers his best bet, Wake Forest minus 12.5 over a Stanford team traveling east for the second time in three weeks, and at 27:34 Lonte answers with UConn plus 6.5 against Syracuse, pointing to the strong underdog record of Jason Candle, a power rating closer to 4 and deep familiarity between the two coaching staffs. The episode closes with a rapid fire round at 29:52 covering Notre Dame at North Carolina, Minnesota and Michigan, Ohio State at Iowa, Pitt and Virginia Tech, Louisville at NC State and Miami against Clemson, with team total unders, a Louisville and NC State over and a blunt verdict on whether Clemson can keep it close.

SleepyJ and Dave Essler talk NFL Week 3 recap. Sleepy J and Dave Essler of Pregame.com break down every Week 3 Sunday game in the NFL, separating the real results from the misleading ones and flagging the Week 4 numbers worth attacking, with Munaf Manji away tending to family. At 1:00 the show opens with Jacksonville routing New England 35 to 6, a game Uncle Dave had as his best bet, and at 1:33 he declares that Drake Maye 3.0 is not Drake Maye 2.0, pointing to failures on special teams, in tackling, and with penalties. At 2:35 Sleepy asks whether injuries to A.J. Brown, TreVeyon Henderson, and the offensive line explain the slide, and Dave says it is all of the above, adding cluster injuries in the secondary. At 4:20 the box score shows New England actually outgained Jacksonville 317 to 315, but the Jaguars went 8 for 12 on third down and won the turnover battle, and by 6:49 the sold sign is officially up on the Patriots ahead of their trip to Buffalo. At 7:31 Sleepy explains why the Bills 24 to 16 win over the Chargers was not as close as it looked, since Buffalo committed five turnovers and still won, and Dave calls it a C game victory that shows the gap between a good team and a mediocre one while floating the 0 and 3 Chargers as a live dog at Seattle. At 14:13 the hosts dissect Washington stunning Seattle 33 to 31, with Sleepy arguing Marcus Mariota is worth less than three points below Jayden Daniels and questioning the Seahawks for benching rookie running back Jadarian Price after an early fumble, while Dave at 18:29 counters with adjusted score and EPA data that favored Seattle 28 to 17. At 23:14 Deshaun Watson rallies Cleveland past Carolina 21 to 18, but Dave sees a Panthers downgrade more than a Browns upgrade after Bryce Young threw 48 times and Tetairoa McMillan managed just 17 yards. At 30:09 Pittsburgh tops Cincinnati behind 400 yards of offense, Sleepy says the Bengals beat themselves, and both hosts believe Cleveland could be live on Thursday night. At 35:59 Dave eyes Jacksonville and the over against Cincinnati, and at 37:18 the crew covers Kansas City beating Miami 24 to 10, with Sleepy crediting a feisty Dolphins effort and Dave labeling Minnesota the most paper 3 and 0 team in the NFL, making Miami a sharp look at plus 10. At 48:21 Baltimore walks off against Dallas, at 51:14 Indianapolis edges Houston 19 to 17 behind a comfortable Daniel Jones while C.J. Stroud struggles without Nico Collins, and both hosts lean Dallas at Houston. At 57:23 the Giants grind past Tennessee 12 to 7 with Jameis Winston replacing an injured Jaxson Dart, and at 1:01:28 Sleepy cashes the over as San Francisco outlasts Arizona 36 to 30, with both hosts backing Jacoby Brissett and the Cardinals against the Giants. At 1:06:21 the Raiders top a turnover prone Saints team, at 1:09:58 Denver beats the Rams with what Dave calls smoke and mirrors, and at 1:12:41 Detroit holds off Geno Smith and the Jets 31 to 24 as the market downgrades the Lions. The recurring lesson all episode is simple, the team that makes the fewest mistakes keeps winning, and at 1:15:00 the hosts tease their Monday Night Football plays on Eagles at Bears with Case Keenum expected to start for Chicago, available now at Pregame.com.

Lonte Smith and Dave Essler talk college football betting for Week 4. Lonte Smith and Dave Essler return with the College Football Edition of the Dream Preview from RJ Bell, riding a perfect 2 and 0 Best Bet week into a loaded Week 4 card. At 0:31 Lonte recaps the run, with Dave still unbeaten on Best Bets and Lonte cashing an outright winner on West Virginia. At 1:51 the show heads to SECU Stadium, where UCLA opened as a 2.5 point favorite at Maryland before the market moved toward the Terrapins and the total dropped from 59.5 to 56.5. At 3:06 Dave weighs the sharp money against the eye test, citing the cross country trip, an Oregon look ahead and the points UCLA allowed to Purdue, and he leans Maryland and the over. At 4:26 Lonte backs Malik Washington, a Maryland pass rush that ranks top 10 nationally in sacks and receiver Chris Durr Jr., while noting the record pace of UCLA running back Wayne Knight. At 5:27 the spotlight turns to Neyland Stadium, where Texas lays 4.5 at Tennessee in a noon kickoff. At 6:54 Dave explains why he refuses to follow the herd onto the Longhorns and why he has never trusted Steve Sarkisian in big spots. At 8:46 Lonte breaks down freshman quarterback Faizon Brandon, a Tennessee ground game averaging 7 yards per carry with 11 rushing touchdowns, and the blitz packages Jim Knowles could throw at Arch Manning, then takes Tennessee plus 5.5 and the under. At 10:49 the crew moves to Athens, where Georgia is laying roughly two touchdowns to Oklahoma. At 12:18 Dave calls the Georgia defense the best in the nation and takes the under, and at 13:16 Lonte explains how the injury to David Stone, a struggling John Mateer and a Sooner run game averaging 3.6 yards per carry point toward a 17 to 13 type of final. At 15:52 the hosts preview Texas A and M at LSU in Tiger Stadium, with Marcel Reed and the Aggies missing key weapons. At 17:47 Dave points to the Aggies allowing Kentucky 7.6 yards per play at home and grabs the LSU team total over, and at 19:37 Lonte sees blowout potential under the lights. At 20:59 the old Pac 12 rivalry arrives at the Coliseum as Oregon lays 3 at USC with a total of 62.5. At 21:44 Dave notes that USC allowed Rutgers 460 yards and Oregon lost at Oklahoma State, and both hosts land on the over, with Lonte planning a live bet on the Trojans. At 26:22 the pair debates whether Oregon can climb back into the playoff race, and Dave admits he would rip up an Oregon national title ticket. At 27:39 Lonte shares the Weekend All Access offer at Pregame.com with promo code PASS20. At 28:31 Dave delivers his Best Bet on Iowa State plus 8.5 at home against an undefeated Utah team that has yet to face a real defense. At 29:33 Lonte fires his Best Bet on Indiana minus 21 against Northwestern, citing Josh Hoover and a defense with back to back shutouts. At 31:19 the show closes with quick hits on Florida against Ole Miss, Boise State at Western Michigan, Wisconsin against Penn State and Minnesota against Washington. Learn more about your ad choices.

Munaf Manji and SleepyJ talk NFL player prop betting for week 2. Munaf Manji and Sleepy J bring their NFL Week 2 Props episode from the Pregame.com Podcast Network, opening the show 15 and 10 combined through their first two pods of the season, up 8.85 units, with their agreed upon best bets a perfect 2 and 0 for plus 4 units, and they waste no time building a full player props card ahead of Thursday night's opener between the Bills and the Lions. The quarterback discussion opens with Patrick Mahomes over 217 and a half passing yards against Indianapolis, with Sleepy pointing to Kansas City's 39 team rushing attempts in Week 1 and a workload for Kenneth Walker III he does not expect to repeat, while Munaf backs the play by noting Mahomes has topped 262 passing yards in all three career starts against the Colts and threw for 352 yards in their most recent meeting, adding that Lamar Jackson's 324 yard passing day in Week 1 was his first 300 yard game since 2024. From there Munaf brings Jacoby Brissett over 35 and a half pass attempts against Seattle, citing a sharp Week 1 outing of 27 completions on 37 attempts for 277 yards and a touchdown, with Seattle turning to Drew Lock at quarterback after Sam Darnold went down, and Sleepy calls Brissett's opening week performance one of the best at the position across the league. Running back props bring Breece Hall over 66 and a half rushing yards against Green Bay, with Jets offensive coordinator Frank Reich confirming Hall's workload will not be capped despite Braelon Allen's 10 carries in relief, and Bijan Robinson over 82 and a half rushing yards against Carolina, a number Munaf backs with a 21 carry, 83 yard, 10 target showing in Week 1 and a strong recent history against the Panthers, with Sleepy calling it too risky to fade Robinson after that kind of workload. Wide receiver props bring Courtland Sutton over 3 and a half receptions against Jacksonville for a Denver offense trying to bounce back after a rough opener, and Mack Hollins over 35 and a half receiving yards against Pittsburgh, with A.J. Brown expected to miss four to six weeks after an ankle injury and Hollins stepping into a larger role after a five target, 51 yard showing in relief. Tight end props round out the card with Harold Fannin Jr. over 35 and a half receiving yards against Tampa Bay, a matchup both hosts like after Cincinnati's tight ends combined for over 100 yards against the same defense in Week 1, and a chalky lean on Trey McBride over 59 and a half receiving yards against Seattle, a matchup McBride has dominated throughout his career. Touchdown scorer picks include Deebo Samuel at plus 220 odds after a big Week 1 role in San Francisco's upset win, Mike Evans at plus 135, and Mack Hollins at plus 215. The episode closes with the marquee best bet of the week, Derrick Henry over 88 and a half rushing yards against New Orleans, a consensus number across DraftKings, Caesars and FanDuel built around Baltimore's banged up receiver room and a Saints defense that just allowed Jahmyr Gibbs to rush for 156 yards and two touchdowns, with both hosts suggesting Henry has the juice to double this number outright. The show wraps with details on a limited time Pregame.com offer where ten dollars in bulk dollars purchases fifty, a 400 percent bonus that never expires and runs through September 21st, as Munaf and Sleepy look to push their best bet record to a perfect 3 and 0 on the season.

Munaf Manji, Dave Essler and SleepyJ talk NFL recap from week 1. Plus the guys preview Monday night football for the broncos and chiefs. Munaf Manji and Dave Essler open the week with a full recap of everything that shaped NFL Week 1, joined by Sleepy J for an extended breakdown of injuries, line movement and a marquee Monday Night Football matchup between the Denver Broncos and Kansas City Chiefs. The show starts with New England's A.J. Brown suffering a high ankle sprain, prompting a discussion of Mack Hollins stepping into a bigger role over Romeo Doubs and DeMario Douglas as the Patriots prepare to host Pittsburgh in Week 2. From there the crew covers Myles Garrett's knee surgery and stint on injured reserve, and what that means for a Los Angeles Rams defense already without Aaron Donald in its season opener against San Francisco. Baltimore's receiving corps also took a hit, with Zay Flowers battling a hamstring issue and rookie Ja'Kobi Lane sidelined several weeks with a fractured wrist ahead of a home date with New Orleans. The hosts also unpack Kyler Murray's concussion in Minnesota's opener against Green Bay and what Carson Wentz taking over means for the Vikings heading into Chicago. Sleepy J runs through a broader injury ledger covering the Steelers, Jets and Lions before the conversation shifts to the weekend's biggest upset, Arizona's outright win over the Los Angeles Chargers, a result that gutted survivor pools nationwide and left Essler questioning the Chargers' identity heading into Week 2. The back half of the show is dedicated entirely to Monday Night Football, with Manji and Essler both leaning toward Denver getting points at home against Kansas City, citing Sean Payton's track record as a play caller and a Broncos defense they view as the stronger unit. Sleepy J takes a more cautious approach, wary of an unusually short line and preferring to attack the total instead of picking a side. The group dives deep into player props, breaking down Patrick Mahomes' pass attempt total against a retooled Chiefs secondary featuring Alohi Gilman, rookie cornerback Mansoor Delane and a returning L'Jarius Sneed, along with Denver's receiver options now that Jaylen Waddle lines up next to Courtland Sutton. Before wrapping, the hosts flag a handful of early Week 2 numbers they like, including New England laying points against Pittsburgh and Cleveland getting a full touchdown against Tampa Bay. A long stretch of the show is reserved for Chicago's historic offensive explosion, a fifty nine point outburst against Carolina that has Manji and Sleepy J debating whether sportsbooks can even price the Bears' totals correctly given head coach Ben Johnson's stated goal of building the highest scoring offense in league history. The conversation touches on quarterback Caleb Williams, running backs D'Andre Swift and Kyle Monangai, and a deep receiver room led by Rome Odunze, Luther Burden III and Kalif Raymond, along with a look ahead to Chicago's Week 2 total against Minnesota that the crew believes is priced too low. Sleepy J closes the discussion with a historical look at how rarely the league has seen pregame totals in the mid fifties and what that trend suggests about where Chicago's number could eventually land. The show wraps with the crew's official best bets for the week, a reminder to use promo code SACK60 for savings on a full NFL season access package, and a preview of an upcoming player props show. It is a wire to wire breakdown built for anyone looking to sharpen their approach to Week 2 of the NFL season. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Munaf Manji and Dave Essler talk NFL betting for Week 1. Munaf Manji and Uncle Dave Essler open the NFL season with a brand new weekly format, breaking down a full Week 1 slate, handing out best bets, and setting the stage for a Monday recap show that will carry the crew through the season. The headline story sits in Pittsburgh, where the Atlanta Falcons arrive with real quarterback uncertainty. Tua Tagovailoa was named the Week 1 starter before an oblique injury popped up in Thursday practice, opening the door for Cooper Rush to potentially take the reins against a Steelers team now led by new head coach Mike McCarthy following the long Mike Tomlin era. Munaf lays out the timeline at 2:32 while Dave, at 3:56, leans hard into the under, arguing Pittsburgh's defense remains legitimate regardless of who plays quarterback and that a young Steelers offensive line will limit what Aaron Rodgers can do on the move. Both land on the under 41.5. From there the two move to Baltimore visiting Indianapolis, where the Ravens are three and a half point road favorites with Daniel Jones back from injury for the Colts and new Ravens head coach Jesse Minter making his debut after serving as the Chargers defensive coordinator a season ago. Dave, at 9:22, calls it a wrong team favored spot and backs Indianapolis at plus three and a half, trusting Colts head coach Shane Steichen over an unproven new staff in Baltimore, and Munaf agrees at 12:54, pointing to efficiency numbers that favor the Colts. The conversation then shifts to Cincinnati, where the Bengals are laying three and a half at home against Tampa Bay with a rebuilt defense that added Dexter Lawrence, Bryan Cook, and Jonathan Allen this offseason. Dave backs the Buccaneers team total under at 15:27, and Munaf goes a step further, taking Tampa Bay outright at plus three and a half and citing a history of slow Cincinnati starts under head coach Zach Taylor. The Packers and Vikings clash gets its own segment at 21:13, with Kyler Murray making his first start at quarterback for Minnesota and Micah Parsons sidelined for Green Bay. Dave breaks from a colleague's earlier take to back the Vikings, and Munaf projects a 23 to 20 final while liking the under 46.5. Sunday Night Football between the Cowboys and Giants closes out the main card at 28:17, with new Giants head coach John Harbaugh looking to flip a franchise that has dropped a striking number of one score games, and both hosts land on the Giants team total over 22.5. Munaf wraps the card with a look at Buffalo visiting Houston, detailing a strong recent history for the Texans defense against Josh Allen specifically and settling on the Texans plus one and a half alongside the under 44.5 as his top best bet of the week, while Dave's top play is the Bengals team total under bought up to 24.5. Along the way the two touch on shorter looks at the Lions, Saints, Dolphins, Eagles, Commanders, Bears, and Panthers, and remind listeners about a discounted All Access subscription at Pregame.com. The episode closes with a preview of what is ahead, a full Monday recap show breaking down the weekend's line moves and a Monday Night Football preview between the Broncos and Chiefs, kicking off a schedule that will run twice a week for the entire season.

RJ Bell and Munaf Manji talk betting for NFL Week 1. RJ Bell and Munaf Manji open the NFL season with a deep Week 1 betting breakdown that leans on historical trends more than gut feelings, and guest analyst Dave Essler adds a live best bet of his own on the marquee Sunday night matchup. The headline play is Houston getting points at home against Buffalo, built on the idea that Buffalo's shift to a new defensive scheme, paired with a short week after a Thursday night game in Detroit, creates real uncertainty against a Texans team that has beaten Josh Allen in all five of their career meetings, including a playoff game. A companion total under 44 and a half in that same game leans on Houston fielding one of the best defenses in football under its current coaching staff. The pair also back the under in Baltimore's home game against Indianapolis, questioning how much trust to extend to a Colts quarterback returning from a torn Achilles in barely nine months, while noting a Baltimore coaching staff unlikely to push the pace once it has a lead. Cross sport comparisons to NBA Achilles recoveries help frame just how early that Colts timeline really is. Tampa Bay getting points against Cincinnati stands out as the show's top prop driven pick, anchored in Cincinnati's rough recent Week 1 history and limited preseason snaps for its top two receivers, while a running back prop on a marquee Eagles ball carrier against a defense he has dominated for three straight meetings offers one of the cleanest matchup angles of the week. A Cowboys and Giants total under carries extra texture thanks to a pointed public comment from a Giants receiver about controlling his own workload after a serious injury, and a spirited debate breaks out over whether Dallas carries a built in betting premium that outpaces what the roster actually supports on defense. The guest analyst makes his own case for the Giants covering, framed around a new head coach's strong debut season track record and a defense he does not believe has been fixed by roster turnover alone. Additional angles cover a Cincinnati quarterback passing yards under tied to years of slow starts, a lean on Cleveland getting a big number against Jacksonville built around a coaching decision at quarterback, and value plays on both a Denver Kansas City tilt shaped by a head coach's history of slow starts and an AFC East showdown where public perception may be lagging behind actual talent. Throughout the show, the hosts explain not just what they like but why, walking through bankroll philosophy, how markets price star names differently than lesser known players, and why narrowing a pick's scope can cut into its edge even when the underlying read is correct. It is a full, opinionated, numbers driven start to the season for anyone looking to sharpen their approach before kickoff, with five official plays, several leans, and a handful of player props all explained in detail rather than simply handed down as picks to trust blindly.

Lonte Smith and Dave Essler talk college football betting for Week 2. Lonte Smith and Dave Essler return for Week 2 of RJ Bill's Dream Preview carrying momentum from a two and oh best bets start, and they open the show reflecting on a profitable opening weekend before diving straight into a loaded Saturday card. The hosts caution against overreacting to a chaotic Week 1, a philosophy that shapes every pick on the show, starting with Oklahoma traveling to Michigan at 2:13. Smith and Essler dig into last year's meeting, a 24 to 13 Sooners win that marked Bryce Underwood's first career road start, before Essler tracks the line move from seven points down to five and a half and lands on the Michigan team total under, pointing to Oklahoma defensive architect Brent Venables and his steadily improving unit. Smith agrees, adding a first half under as a companion angle while expecting Underwood to lean on his legs against Oklahoma's pressure. At 7:12 the show shifts to Alabama laying ten and a half points on the road at Kentucky, where both hosts push back on the number, citing Alabama quarterback Keelon Russell's first true road start and Kentucky's physical defensive front under new head coach Will Stein, an Oregon transplant Essler calls one of the best coaching hires in the sport. Smith leans toward Kentucky covering, with a specific first half angle behind an energized home crowd in Lexington. UCLA hosting San Diego State comes up at 12:14, and both analysts converge on the UCLA team total over, citing the Bruins' explosive opener against Cal and pointing to San Diego State coach Sean Lewis facing a tough test trying to slow UCLA's ground game. At 17:22 the conversation turns to one of the week's biggest Group of Six matchups, Boise State hosting Memphis, where Essler flags Memphis' grueling travel schedule and leans toward the Boise team total over, while Smith highlights Memphis running back Jaylin Carter's breakout performance and takes a lighter lean toward the Tigers covering the number. The week's marquee matchup, Texas hosting Ohio State, gets broken down at 22:53, with Essler siding with the Buckeyes behind coach Ryan Day and quarterback Julian Sayin, while Smith elects to sit out the side entirely and instead targets the under, citing Texas coach Steve Sarkisian's red zone efficiency concerns and Ohio State's new defensive coordinator Matt Patricia. Mississippi State traveling to Minnesota closes out the matchup breakdowns at 28:45, with both hosts liking the Gophers behind quarterback Drake Lindsey's decision making and leaning the total under given two programs that have historically struggled to sustain explosive offense. The show wraps with fresh best bets from both hosts, Essler backing App State getting points on the road at East Carolina after the Pirates managed almost nothing offensively against Alabama in their opener, and Smith closing with the Cal and Syracuse total going over, pointing to two up tempo offenses and shaky defenses on both sidelines. Throughout the episode, Smith and Essler keep returning to the same disciplined framework, weighing line movement, situational spots, coaching changes, and advanced efficiency numbers rather than chasing whatever storyline dominated the previous weekend. It is a full slate breakdown built for bettors who want context behind every number, not just a list of picks, closing out another confident week for the RJ Bill's Dream Preview crew as they look to keep their best bets streak alive heading into the heart of the college football season.

Munaf Manji and SleepyJ talk nfl props for this week first two games. SleepyJ and Munaf Manji close out their Week One props coverage with two tight end plays built on very different foundations. Starting at 0:04, SleepyJ backs Hunter Henry over three or more receptions at minus 188, acknowledging the price is heavily juiced but explaining that New England is breaking in two new wide receivers, AJ Brown and Romeo Doubs, and does not expect instant chemistry, which should push the coaching staff and Drake Maye back toward proven concepts built around Hunter Henry. SleepyJ projects Henry could reach four or more catches but views three as an easy floor, calling him a big target with a ton of plays already in the playbook and arguing the new additions will not push him off the field, if anything helping open things up for AJ Brown and Romeo Doubs as defenses have to respect more options. He points to a Seattle pass rush he calls elite that should force plenty of third and medium situations Henry is well suited to convert, along with a Seattle defense that ranked twenty second last season against tight ends and has since lost multiple contributors from that group. Munaf Manji responds at 2:20 with the specific numbers, noting Henry drew five targets and finished with three receptions for 31 yards in last season's Super Bowl against Seattle, then adding his full regular season line of 87 targets, 60 receptions, 768 receiving yards and seven touchdowns, framing him as the reliable option Drake Maye can lean on for third down conversions and second and long situations as the receiver room adjusts to new additions, especially if the Patriots find themselves trailing. At 3:28, Munaf shifts to his own tight end prop, backing George Kittle under thirty eight and a half receiving yards for San Francisco, built entirely around workload management as Kittle returns from an Achilles injury and limited preseason snaps. Munaf expects Deebo Samuel and Christian McCaffrey to serve as the early offensive focal points while the 49ers ease Kittle back into a full role, projecting something like three catches for 30 yards in the opener despite Kittle's history as Brock Purdy's favorite target. He plans to check the actual snap count after the game to see how the workload played out, and suggests real value could open up on the over a few weeks into the season once Kittle is trusted with a bigger role. Together the two picks close the Cash That Ticket crew's full Week One props slate, leaning on Patriots continuity while new receivers get integrated and on 49ers caution around a star tight end still working back to full strength.

Lonte Smith and Dave Essler talk betting for CFB Week 1. Lonte Smith and Dave Essler open the college football season in full with a week one preview that moves through nearly every marquee matchup on the board, weighing new coaching hires and transfer portal roster turnover against the numbers the market has already set. The two start by looking back at week zero, where underdogs generally held value and where thin betting volume made several lines difficult to trust, before turning to the headline game of the week, Colorado traveling to Georgia Tech in a homecoming trip for quarterback Julian Lewis. Colorado enters year four under Deion Sanders with a new go go offense installed by coordinator Brennan Marion, while Georgia Tech, under fourth year coach Brent Key, breaks in quarterback Alberto Mendoza and new coordinator George Godsey after losing five of its top six defensive backs. Dave raises the Atlanta heat and humidity as a factor working against a high altitude team, while Lonte likes Colorado receivers Danny Scudero, Kam Perry and DeAndre Moore to stress a rebuilt Georgia Tech secondary, landing on Colorado plus six and a half as one of his favorite numbers of the week. From there the conversation shifts to Cincinnati and Boston College, where Scott Satterfield's steadily improving Bearcats and a loaded offensive line face Bill O'Brien's roster overhaul in year three, with new defensive coordinator Ted Roof drawing praise and the hosts ultimately favoring a first half angle over a side. The rivalry between Wyoming and Colorado State follows, with new Colorado State coach Jim Mora seeking revenge for last year's shutout while Wyoming breaks in transfer quarterback Tyler Hughes under coordinator Christian Taylor, a pairing reunited from William and Mary. UCLA and Cal each arrive with new head coaches in Bob Chesney and Tosh Lupoi, and the discussion centers on whether Cal's rebuilt run defense can slow returning UCLA quarterback Nico Iamaleava and transfer running back Wayne Knight, with both hosts leaning toward the under. Baylor and Auburn get significant attention as programs trending in opposite directions, with Dave Aranda's seat temperature a running theme and Alex Golesh making his Auburn debut against a Baylor team retooled around quarterback DJ Lagway, with both hosts taking the points. UNLV traveling to Hawaii closes out the marquee slate, with both teams coming off entertaining week zero losses that give the hosts actual data on quarterbacks Jackson Arnold and Micah Alejado rather than preseason guesswork, and both lean toward the over. The back half of the show covers quick hitters, including a Louisville team built around transfer quarterback Lincoln Kienholz and a deep backfield that Lonte calls his best bet of the entire week against Ole Miss, plus a Monday night showdown between Lane Kiffin's LSU and Dabo Swinney's Clemson that Lonte frames as a must win spot for a first year coach trying to make an immediate statement. The episode closes with each host sharing a single best bet, Dave taking the Colorado State team total and Lonte sticking with Colorado against Georgia Tech, wrapping a preview built for bettors who want the reasoning behind every number rather than just the final pick.

Munaf Manji talks weekend action in the sports betting world. Munaf Manji opens a new season of the weekend rewind show solo on the Straight Outta Vegas AM feed, laying out the plan for a full week of football content, this rewind episode on Mondays once Uncle Dave joins him, a college football pod, a Wednesday preview show, a Thursday prop show with Sleepy, and a Friday picks show built on the injury report. At 2:47 he closes the book on preseason betting trends, underdogs went 23 and 9 and 1 against the spread through the first two weeks, a 72 percent clip, with road dogs posting a 42 and 1 mark, numbers worth watching into Week One. The headline news arrives at 5:04, Aaron Donald is officially coming out of retirement to rejoin the Los Angeles Rams on a one year deal worth twenty million dollars, with playoff incentives pushing the total as high as thirty million. Donald joins a front that already added Myles Garrett in a blockbuster trade with Cleveland, and Munaf breaks down how dominant that pairing could become, while expecting Donald's snap count to build gradually as he shakes off the rust. At 7:51 the Rams sit at five to one to win the Super Bowl on DraftKings with no other team shorter than ten to one, and Munaf cites a Yahoo Sports stat that teams which opened as favorites at plus 500 or better have gone zero for 20 all time, asking whether this roster could break that trend. At 9:08 he adds the Trent McDuffie trade from Kansas City and a look at how a stronger defense could shift Los Angeles toward lower scoring games built around Matthew Stafford, Puka Nacua, Davante Adams, and Kyren Williams. At 11:41 the show turns to a more serious story, Green Bay running back Josh Jacobs has been placed on the Commissioner's Exempt List ahead of a court appearance on November 17, with Munaf estimating a possible suspension in the four to six game range. At 12:48 he connects that news to the Packers trading for running back Kaleb Johnson from the Steelers, a move he reads as Green Bay preparing for time without Jacobs and potentially leaning more on Jordan Love. From 14:20 onward, the show becomes a rapid tour of final roster cuts, Trevon Diggs released by Seattle but likely practice squad bound, Anthony Richardson and J.J. McCarthy surviving their initial rosters, and Titans wide receiver Xavier Restrepo earning a fantasy shoutout behind Calvin Ridley and rookie Carnell Tate. At 16:07 the Giants keep Darius Slayton and Odell Beckham Jr. while moving on from Jalin Hyatt, with Beckham's comments about bringing a championship back to New York getting a mention. At 16:53 Cleveland's quarterback carousel takes center stage, Dillon Gabriel making the roster, Deshaun Watson holding the starting job, Shedeur Sanders waiting in the wings, and Taylen Green turning heads late. At 17:53 he runs through players opening the year on injured reserve or the PUP list, Micah Parsons, James Conner, Isaac Guerendo, and Kerby Joseph among them, along with the release of Titans quarterback Will Levis. At 19:59, Bears wide receiver Luther Burden III has been cleared by head coach Ben Johnson and is expected ready for Week One despite a groin injury. After a mention of his appearance on RJ Bell's Dream Preview podcast at 21:31, Munaf lands on his best bet of the show. At 23:02 he builds the pick around a quote from Ben Johnson, who said this offseason he wants Chicago to be the highest scoring offense in NFL history, a comment Munaf says grabbed his attention given what Johnson built previously with Jared Goff in Detroit. At 24:20 he lands on Caleb Williams' season long passing yards prop, the number sitting at 3,649.5 on DraftKings but a better line at 3,600.5 on BetMGM. Williams threw for 3,942 yards, 27 touchdowns, and seven interceptions in year one under Johnson while playing all 17 games in each of his first two seasons, and Munaf likes him to clear the number in a more explosive year two offense. The episode closes with a look ahead to next week, when Uncle Dave joins Munaf for the first full regular season show, previewing the opener including the Super Bowl rematch and the international matchup between the 49ers and Rams in Australia, ahead of the Friday picks show heading into Week One.

Lonte Smith and Dave Essler talk betting for College Football Week 0. Best bets as always. College football is back, and Lonte Smith and Dave Essler open a new weekly preview show built around straightforward, numbers first analysis of the biggest games on the board. With only eight games on the week zero slate, the two focus on three marquee matchups before running through the rest of the card and closing with best bets. The headline game sends North Carolina across the Atlantic to face TCU in Dublin, Ireland, a rematch of last year's opener that TCU won 48 to 14 after North Carolina raced out to an early lead and faded late. Bill Belichick enters year two in Chapel Hill with a defense that quietly outperformed its record a season ago, even though the run defense ranked outside the top 100 nationally in efficiency and success rate. New quarterback Billy Edwards Jr. takes over an offense built around a veteran line, while TCU under Sonny Dykes hands the job to Harvard transfer Jaden Craig, who threw for more than 5,000 yards with a strong touchdown to interception ratio before making the leap in competition. TCU also lost offensive coordinator Kendal Briles to South Carolina, replacing him with Gordon Sammis, a hire expected to lean more on the ground game. With the number climbing from seven and a half to nine and a half in the days before kickoff, both hosts land on the under, floating a first half and full game split, while noting real value on North Carolina if bettors can find a full double digit price. From there, the conversation shifts to an ACC opener between NC State and Virginia, a game originally slated for Brazil before shifting into a true conference matchup in Charlottesville. Virginia enters year five under Tony Elliott off an eleven win season and the program's first ACC Championship Game appearance, but returns just sixteen of its top forty players by snap count. Missouri transfer Beau Pribula steps in at quarterback, and the defense adds East Carolina transfer Zion Wilson. NC State leans on continuity behind quarterback C.J. Bailey entering year fourteen under Dave Doeren, reloading at receiver with Buffalo transfer Victor Snow and Miami transfer Joshisa Trader while adding Penn State safety King Mack and Tulane pass rusher Harvey Dyson on a defense that struggled to generate pressure a year ago. With the line sliding toward NC State, both hosts like the Wolfpack to cover, and lean toward the first half specifically given Virginia's unfamiliarity as a unit. The nightcap sends Memphis to Las Vegas to face UNLV, with new Memphis coach Charles Huff arriving from Southern Miss by way of Marshall alongside fifty three incoming transfers and a still undecided quarterback battle between Air Noland and West Georgia transfer Marcus Stokes. UNLV returns for year two under Dan Mullen off a ten and four season that flirted with the playoff, bringing in Auburn transfer Jackson Arnold and Michigan transfer Alex Orji at quarterback and returning running back Jai'Den Thomas off a season of better than seven yards a carry. One host leans toward Memphis and the points behind Huff's coaching track record, while the other prefers UNLV overall but wants to shop the game live once both new look offenses settle in. Before wrapping, the two touch on Stanford at Hawaii, a heavy USC team total lean against San Jose State behind Lincoln Riley's history of running up the score, and a live dog look at Jacksonville State. The best bets close the show, with LSU's win total drawing attention behind Lane Kiffin's transfer haul, headlined by lineman Jordan Seaton, quarterback Sam Leavitt and safety Ty Benefield, alongside a manageable schedule that only demands a modest run through conference play. NC State plus the points closes out the picks, and the two remind listeners to manage bankroll carefully in a slate loaded with uncertainty before promising to be back with fresh winners for week one next Wednesday.

Munaf Manji and SleepyJ talk NFL betting. Munaf Manji and Sleepy J opened the 2026 NFL season with their annual season long player props special on The Props Podcast, working through ten different plays across quarterback, running back, wide receiver, tight end and touchdown markets before locking in their picks to win the Super Bowl. Sleepy J, at 2:38, led off the quarterback discussion backing Jayden Daniels to clear four and a half rushing touchdowns, pointing to his rookie season usage, the season ending triceps injury to left tackle Laremy Tunsil, and one of the most grueling opening schedules in the league for the Washington Commanders. Munaf, at 8:12, answered with a passing yards play on Kyler Murray, betting that a fresh start with the Minnesota Vikings under head coach Kevin O'Connell and alongside Justin Jefferson unlocks the kind of production Murray has shown whenever he has stayed healthy. The running back props brought a pair of contrarian unders, with Sleepy J fading Derrick Henry's rushing touchdown total in Baltimore given his age, a rebuilt offensive line and a new coaching staff, and Munaf fading rookie Jeremiyah Love's rushing yardage in Arizona given a crowded backfield and a team likely to trail often. Wide receiver props sparked the liveliest debate of the show, with Sleepy J backing an under on A.J. Brown's yardage after his move from a concentrated Philadelphia passing attack to a crowded New England receiver room, while Munaf took the other side on Brown's touchdown total, expecting a heavy dose of red zone work in his new offense. Munaf also liked DJ Moore to clear his receiving yardage number after landing with Josh Allen in Buffalo. On tight ends and touchdowns, Sleepy J backed Kyle Pitts to clear his reception total in Atlanta and projected a touchdown breakout for Tetairoa McMillan in Carolina, while Munaf backed a big season for Colston Loveland in Chicago behind an offense chasing record scoring numbers. To close the show, starting at 46:53, both hosts revealed their picks to win the Super Bowl, with Sleepy J going against the grain on the Cincinnati Bengals at long odds, citing a healthy Joe Burrow and a much improved defense, while Munaf landed on the Detroit Lions, calling them a team flying under the radar behind Jared Goff and a talented roster on both sides of the football. The two hosts also touched on the current landscape heading into the season, noting the AFC feels more wide open than it has in recent years and that the NFC is shaping up to be a gauntlet from top to bottom. Throughout the episode, both hosts leaned on usage trends, coaching changes, roster turnover and scheme fit rather than surface level box scores, walking through why certain numbers on the board looked mispriced heading into the year. The show closed with a preview of the busy football schedule ahead, including week zero college football coverage already underway and NFL Week 1 preparation on the horizon, with weekly props coverage set to continue for the entire season on The Props Podcast.

Munaf Manji and Dave Essler talk betting for Friday. Munaf Manji and Dave Essler close out the daily run of Cash That Ticket on the Straight Outta Vegas AM feed with a full Friday MLB card and a look ahead to football season. At 0:10 Manji frames the show as the final daily episode for the year, and at 1:18 Essler reflects on a season that swung from hot to cold before settling in the positive, adding that he cashed a client winner the night before. At 1:56 Manji thanks the audience for riding out a near daily schedule and confirms he and Essler will still team up at least twice a week once football season begins. The card opens at 3:27 with the headline matchup of the day, Chris Sale against Jacob Misiorowski as the Braves visit the Brewers with a rare six run total on the board. At 4:10 Essler leans toward Milwaukee for the full game on bullpen strength while still praising Sale, and at 5:13 Manji prefers an under look through five innings paired with the Brewers on the money line. At 7:00 the pair turns to Boston hosting San Francisco, where Sonny Gray opposes Logan Webb. Essler at 7:15 likes the under and the Giants on the run line off Webb's consistency, and Manji at 8:30 backs the under with Gray's strong home and night splits. At 9:31 Freddy Peralta faces Trevor Rogers as the Rays visit Baltimore, with Essler at 9:56 siding with the Orioles given Peralta's recent familiarity with this lineup, and Manji at 11:11 adding Peralta's rough road and night splits. At 12:17 Troy Melton takes on Noah Cameron as the Tigers visit Kansas City, with Essler at 12:41 backing Detroit after Cameron's grueling prior start, and Manji at 13:29 reinforcing the pick with Melton's dominant road numbers. At 15:07 Nick Lodolo opposes Eduardo Rodriguez in Cincinnati and Arizona, a matchup both hosts admit they rarely get right, with Essler at 15:10 wary of laying a heavy price on Rodriguez and Manji at 17:12 flagging fatigue after a heavy recent workload. At 18:49 Matthew Boyd and the Cubs visit Emerson Hancock and the Mariners, with Essler at 19:16 siding with Seattle's bullpen and Manji at 20:58 eyeing a Cubs team total angle instead. Essler at 22:49 races through the rest of the slate, touching on Washington, Yoshinobu Yamamoto, Bubba Chandler and the Pirates, Reid Detmers and MacKenzie Gore in the Angels and Rangers game, a wary look at Hayden Wesneski and the Astros, and a Twins and Padres line that has moved firmly toward Minnesota's Connor Prielipp despite public tickets piling onto San Diego's Randy Vasquez. With the baseball card finished, Essler at 26:58 names the Rams over eleven and a half wins as his favorite NFL win total, pointing to a loaded roster and head coach Sean McVay, while Manji at 28:24 counters with the Vikings over eight and a half, betting on a bounce back year from Kyler Murray under Kevin O'Connell and a friendly home schedule. On the under side, Essler at 30:23 fades the Packers over a suspect secondary and a difficult slate, and Manji at 33:07 takes the Eagles under ten and a half, citing another new offensive coordinator working with Jalen Hurts. The season's final best bets arrive late, with Essler at 37:14 backing the Blue Jays to score over two and a half runs against Cam Schlittler and the Yankees, and Manji at 38:30 closing the year with the Tigers on the money line behind Melton against Cameron and the Royals. Before signing off at 43:07, the hosts preview a busy football stretch ahead, including a new Dream Pod with RJ and a season long props pod with Sleepy, and Manji thanks the show's record keeper, Kelvin, for another season of tracking results.

Munaf Manji and Dave Essler talk betting for Thursday. Munaf Manji and Dave Essler open the Thursday, August 20, 2026 edition of Cash That Ticket on the Straight Outta Vegas AM feed by looking back at a one and one showing from the previous best bets episode, then work through a full night of MLB action before closing out their season long NFL win total series with the Los Angeles Rams. The headline matchup is Yankees at Orioles in Baltimore, where Gerrit Cole opposes Kyle Bradish with Baltimore sitting as a home underdog near plus 111 and the total at seven and a half. Dave, at 2:36, explains why he nearly stuck with the Orioles again after their bullpen coughed up a competitive game the night before, praising Bradish for three straight starts with two or fewer earned runs allowed. Munaf, at 4:39, backs the pitching duel theory with hard numbers, noting Cole has gone to the under in all eight of his road starts this season and that the Yankees are 5-2 to the under in the first five innings on the road, leading both hosts to the first five under at four and a half. The conversation then shifts to Nationals at Rangers in Arlington, Andrew Alvarez against Jacob deGrom, where Dave, at 6:08, points out how rarely Washington has faced deGrom this year despite his strong overall track record, while Munaf, at 8:28, lays out deGrom's split of a 2.93 road ERA against a bloated 5.01 mark at home. With Washington's bullpen a season long weakness, both hosts land on the first five under, which Dave later calls his best bet of the day. The night's finale is Angels at Astros in Houston, Grayson Rodriguez against Peter Lambert, with Houston a heavy home favorite and the total at eight and a half. Dave, at 10:11, walks through Lambert's turnaround from early season struggles to five straight starts allowing exactly two earned runs, while Munaf, at 12:27, adds that Rodriguez has been especially rough pitching in Anaheim, pushing both hosts toward the Astros run line in the first five innings. Dave also runs through several early getaway day games at 14:30, leaning toward the Royals over the Athletics, staying cautious on Guardians at Giants despite liking Cleveland starter Gavin Williams, and singling out Mariners at Brewers as his favorite look behind Brewers starter Robert Gasser. Munaf, at 16:20, flags a surprising trend for Mariners starter George Kirby, who has struggled on the road all season even as Seattle keeps winning those first five innings anyway. The back half of the show turns to the Los Angeles Rams, who open the 2026 season with an 11.5 win total after finishing 12-5 a year ago. The Rams enter this season after acquiring reigning Defensive Player of the Year Myles Garrett from the Cleveland Browns and adding cornerback Trent McDuffie, with persistent rumors surrounding a possible Aaron Donald return. Dave, at 18:45 and 19:29, breaks down a demanding schedule that opens with a trip to Australia against the 49ers, continues with a Monday night home opener against the Giants, and includes road trips to Denver and Philadelphia before Buffalo visits, ultimately landing on the over given the talent around Matthew Stafford. Munaf, at 21:17, goes a step further, projecting 13 wins and a division title behind the continued production of Davante Adams, Puka Nacua, and Kyren Williams on offense, paired with a defense that could feature both Myles Garrett and a returning Aaron Donald. The show wraps with the day's best bets, Dave riding the Nationals-Rangers first five under four and a half while Munaf backs the Yankees-Orioles first five under, both hosts tying the picks back to bullpen concerns and starting pitching form across the card. Before signing off, the two point listeners toward a busy day of action that includes golf playoff coverage, a full baseball schedule, and NFL preseason football in the evening, with the next episode of Cash That Ticket set for Friday.

Munaf Manji and Dave Essler talk betting for Wednesday. Munaf Manji and Dave Essler open their Wednesday, August 19 episode with a full betting agenda, running through a day baseball card before settling into five marquee night games and closing with a detailed look at the Baltimore Ravens win total for the coming NFL season. The show opens at 0:10 with a recap of Tuesday, where a best bet on the Astros fell short as the club managed only one run, while a late addition on the Blue Jays cashed after the market spent the afternoon leaning that direction. The Brewers also delivered a 22 run outburst on a first team total over, and both hosts agree the size of the margin does not change the value of the win. From there the guys turn to Wednesday's slate, beginning at 2:30 with Sandy Alcantara and the Marlins visiting Aaron Nola and the Phillies in an NL East matchup with the total set at eight and a half. Essler leans toward the over given a Phillies lineup that has seen plenty of Alcantara over the years, while Manji reinforces the pick by noting the first two games of this series both cleared ten combined runs and Miami carries one of the stronger road over rates in the league this season. At 4:44 the focus shifts to the Yankees and Orioles, Will Warren opposing Chris Bassitt, where the hosts back the over behind a red hot Bassitt since returning from the injured list and a notable gap in Warren's ERA between day games and night games. At 7:47 the crew previews Logan Gilbert and the Mariners against Dustin May and the Brewers, leaning toward a first five under behind Gilbert's strong seasonal trend in that split and questions about whether Milwaukee's offense stays hot after its outburst the night before. At 10:52 the Nationals and Rangers get a look, Cade Cavalli opposing Kumar Rocker, with both hosts siding with Washington as an underdog given Rocker's recent decline and a soft feeling total that Manji suggests attacking through a Nationals team total over. At 13:34 the Astros and Angels close out the marquee card, Ethan Pecko making his first major league start for Houston against Walbert Urena and the Angels, with both hosts landing firmly on the Angels given the price attached to an unproven starter and Urena's strong personal history against this Astros lineup. Around 16:16 the guys touch on a handful of additional angles, including an under lean in Cincinnati between the Reds and Cardinals and a first five lean on Cleveland behind one of the more reliable arms on the schedule this season. At 18:10 the show pivots to football, and the hosts spend real time on Baltimore's win total of eleven and a half following an 8 and 9 season that kept the Ravens out of the playoffs. They discuss the arrival of new head coach Jesse Minter, the free agent addition of pass rusher Trey Hendrickson, and a schedule that both hosts believe sets up favorably through the middle of the season and into a division heavy closing stretch. Essler walks through the week by week matchups in detail, while Manji highlights Derrick Henry, Zay Flowers, and Mark Andrews as offensive pieces who could push the Ravens toward the higher end of their projected win range. Both hosts ultimately back the over on Baltimore, agreeing that a first year coaching staff typically buys the roster some patience regardless of immediate results. The episode closes with the day's best bets, a first five under between the Blue Jays and Rays built around a dominant WHIP from Tampa Bay's starter and a resurgent veteran arm for Toronto, and a Nationals team total over built around a Rangers starter who has struggled both at home and after dark in his recent outings. The hosts wrap by previewing tomorrow's show, which covers the final NFL win total of their series on the Los Angeles Rams alongside a lighter Thursday baseball slate.

Munaf Manji and Dave Essler talk betting for Tuesday. Munaf Manji and Dave Essler sit down on Tuesday, August 18, 2026, opening at 00:11 with a plan to run through the day's baseball card before turning to the next NFL win total on the board, the Buffalo Bills at ten and a half. Essler joins at 00:50 fresh off a rough night with a Braves team total, then lights up over a Frank Thomas rookie card pull from a fresh box, sparking a short conversation about grading costs, centering, and how AI and celebrity involvement have pushed the trading card market toward pricier autographed, numbered parallels. At 02:25, Manji delivers a scheduling note, confirming this is the final week of the show before it shifts into its football format, with a Thursday props pod, a college football podcast alongside Lante, a Monday morning recap paired with a Monday Night Football preview, and a full weekend preview show on Fridays taking its place, while the current format returns after the new year. The baseball breakdown begins at 04:13 with the Yankees at the Orioles, Carlos Rodon opposing Shane Baz at a total of eight and a half, where Essler leans toward the Yankees team total while Manji sides with Baltimore on the moneyline, pointing to New York's struggles with runners in scoring position and Rodon's recent return from the injured list. At 08:09, the Blue Jays visit the Rays, Jose Soriano against Nick Martinez at seven and a half, with both hosts warming to Toronto behind Soriano's strong two starts and a struggling Tampa Bay bullpen. At 12:16, the Tigers travel to Pittsburgh to face the Pirates, Keter Montero opposite Braxton Ashcraft at a total of eight, where Essler favors a first five under while Manji likes Detroit's plus money given its league best road record since the All Star break. At 17:06, the Padres meet the Mets, Robbie Ray against Zack Thornton at eight and a half, with both hosts landing on the first five over given shaky command from both starters. At 21:16, the card closes with the Mariners in Milwaukee against the Brewers, Bryce Miller opposing Kyle Harrison at seven and a half, where Manji highlights Miller's poor road form and a Sunday Night Baseball fade angle to back the Brewers team total over three and a half. Essler runs down the rest of the day's slate at 25:36 before the conversation turns to football at 29:23, where the hosts dig into the Buffalo Bills win total of ten and a half. They walk through a 12 and 5 season a year ago, an AFC East runner up finish behind New England, a wild card win over Jacksonville, and an overtime divisional round exit in Denver, before previewing new head coach Joe Brady, the addition of DJ Moore at receiver, and a defense under new coordinator Jim Leonard that both hosts see as the swing factor for the season. They break down the schedule in detail, from the Week 1 trip to Houston through a manageable home stretch, a West Coast swing, and a difficult December run, ultimately agreeing the over is the right side if Josh Allen stays healthy. At 39:22, the hosts remind listeners about the pregame.com picks package and a seasonal discount before wrapping with best bets at 41:38, Essler backing the Astros team total over four and a half against the Angels and Manji sticking with the Brewers team total over three and a half against the Mariners. The show closes at 46:08 with Essler hoping his card collection has one more gem waiting inside, and Manji confirming the crew returns tomorrow with more picks and analysis as the season rolls on toward the football schedule ahead.

Munaf Manji and Dave Essler talk betting for Thursday. Munaf Manji and Dave Essler open Thursday's episode by working through a three game getaway day slate before turning their attention to two of the more closely watched NFL win totals on the board. The night's headline game is the Field of Dreams matchup between the Phillies and Twins in Dyersville, Iowa, streaming on Netflix, with Aaron Nola starting for Philadelphia against Taj Bradley for Minnesota. Rain is the real storyline here, with chances climbing through the evening and threatening to shorten or postpone the game entirely, a factor the hosts believe is keeping the total pinned at eight and a half even as public money piles onto the over. Dave leans the under and toward Minnesota given his skepticism of Nola's recent form, while Munaf backs up the same concerns with Nola's home and road numbers this season. From there the show moves to Rangers at Angels, where Jacob deGrom's rough recent stretch against Houston and the White Sox opens the door for a high variance read on Walbert Urena and a shaky Los Angeles bullpen, with Dave favoring an Angels first five look and a Rangers team total over, while Munaf reveals he is the featured dollar capper on Pregame.com with a three star play on the game. The nightcap pits Shane Drohan against Roki Sasaki as the Brewers visit the Dodgers, with a Freddie Freeman injury scare from the previous night hanging over the Los Angeles lineup. Both hosts lean under the total, with Dave adding the Brewers on the run line given Milwaukee's bullpen depth and Drohan's tendency to limit home runs. After a quick pass through the day's earlier getaway games, including a Red Sox and Blue Jays pitching matchup between Payton Tolle and Max Scherzer, the conversation shifts fully into football. The Philadelphia Eagles carry a win total of ten and a half after an eleven and six season and a second straight NFC East title, and both hosts take the under, pointing to the trade of A.J. Brown to the New England Patriots, first year offensive coordinator Sean Mannion learning on the job, lingering questions in the secondary beyond Cooper DeJean, and a stronger projected NFC East. They still see Philadelphia as a ten win caliber team capable of winning the division, with DeVonta Smith, Dontayvion Wicks, and rookie Makai Lemon absorbing a larger share of the passing game behind Saquon Barkley. The Detroit Lions carry the same ten and a half win total after a nine and eight season that saw the best point differential in the NFC North undone by a losing divisional record. Dave leans under given injuries to both projected starting safeties and a tougher slate of divisional quarterbacks, while Munaf takes the over, betting on Jahmyr Gibbs, Amon-Ra St. Brown, and Aidan Hutchinson returning to full strength on defense. The two hosts close the show with their daily best bets, Dave backing the Green Bay Packers minus three and a half in the first half of their preseason opener against Pittsburgh, and Munaf taking the over in Texans at Chargers behind Houston's deep receiver room and Mike McDaniel's new offense in Los Angeles. Listeners are reminded to use promo code NFL50 for fifty dollars off a full NFL season access package on Pregame.com, and the crew previews tomorrow's episode, which continues the NFL win total series with a look at the defending Super Bowl champion Seattle Seahawks.

Munaf Manji and Dave Essler talk betting for Wednesday. Munaf Manji and Dave Essler run through a loaded Wednesday, August 12 card on Cash That Ticket, opening with a recap of a two for two best bet stretch that both needed extra innings to cash, including a Yankees moneyline and a Dodgers team total over. From there the pair works through the afternoon and evening MLB slate, starting at 01:53 with Guardians and Tigers, where Foster Griffin, the Nationals All-Star traded to Cleveland at the deadline, opposes Tigers ace Framber Valdez with the total at eight, and both hosts lean the over while Munaf prefers the Guardians side. At 05:46 the Cubs host the Nationals, with David Peterson, since traded to Chicago, facing Jackson Kent in his major league debut, and both hosts land on the Cubs team total over rather than laying a steep moneyline price. At 08:37 Mariners and Yankees draws mixed feelings from both hosts, with Essler reluctantly siding with New York despite a split market and Bryce Miller's recent home run troubles, while Munaf leans toward the total staying under. At 12:28 Red Sox and Blue Jays sees Essler back Toronto and Jose Soriano over a Boston team he feels was overvalued after a big July, while Munaf prefers the over given Ranger Suarez's shrinking pitch counts. Essler closes the MLB card at 15:42 with three more games, leaning Mets on the run line against Atlanta's Tyler Mahle, fading Angels rookie George Klassen while liking the Rangers team total over against Cal Quantrill, and backing the Pirates over Janson Junk and the Marlins, all calls Munaf agrees with. At 18:16 the show shifts to football with the next stop on the pair's NFL win total tour, the Kansas City Chiefs, sitting at ten and a half with plus money on the over. Munaf lays out the backdrop, quarterback Patrick Mahomes working back from a torn ACL with a Week 1 return targeted, and a Chiefs team that missed the playoffs a year ago at six and eleven. At 19:57 Essler breaks down the roster and schedule, pointing to Justin Fields as insurance behind Mahomes, praising the continued presence of Travis Kelce and Rashee Rice alongside the addition of Kenneth Walker III in the backfield, while flagging several new starters on a defense led by Chris Jones and George Karlaftis under coordinator Steve Spagnuolo. He maps out a schedule opening with Denver, the Colts, Dolphins, and Raiders before an early bye, then a difficult closing run at Buffalo, at the Rams, San Francisco at home, and the Chargers on the road, ultimately taking the over despite his Patriots fan bias making the call harder than expected. Munaf backs the over as well, citing the receiver room around Kenneth Walker III, including Rashee Rice, Xavier Worthy, and Tyquan Thornton, along with a defense bolstered by four straight defensive draft picks. Before wrapping up, Munaf reminds listeners about the new NFL50 promo code at Pregame.com, good for fifty dollars off an all access NFL season package through the Super Bowl. The show closes with best bets, Essler backing the Pittsburgh Pirates on the moneyline against Janson Junk, Munaf taking the Mets first five innings moneyline behind Zac Thornton, and Essler adding an afternoon look at the Twins as short home favorites behind Zebby Matthews.

Munaf Manji and Dave Essler talk betting for Tuesday. Munaf Manji and Dave Essler open Tuesday's show on the Straight Outta Vegas AM feed with a quick recap of Essler's round at TPC Sawgrass, where he parred the famous island green 17th hole, before turning to a Monday betting recap in which the Brewers moneyline fell short again but an over in the Astros game cashed thanks to a three run 10th inning. From there the hosts work through a full Tuesday MLB card. At 3:26 they break down Paul Skenes and the Pittsburgh Pirates visiting Eury Perez and the Miami Marlins, questioning whether Skenes at minus 112 is a gift or a trap given his rough road numbers, and landing on Miami in the first five innings with the under. At 7:14 the focus shifts to Tanner Bibee and the Cleveland Guardians against Drew Anderson and the Detroit Tigers, with rain in the forecast and both hosts wary of laying a price behind Anderson in what could turn into a bullpen day for Detroit. At 11:25 the hosts return to a familiar theme, fading Bryan Woo's brutal road splits as the Seattle Mariners visit Ryan Weathers and the New York Yankees, backing New York in the first five innings. At 14:53 they weigh Dylan Cease's heavy recent workload, including a one hit shutout of Boston, as the Red Sox visit Toronto, with Essler leaning the over and Manji preferring Toronto in the first five given his lack of trust in the Blue Jays offense. At 19:05 the Mets visit the Braves, with Nolan McLean and Martin Perez both trending toward an over, backed by New York's recent history of hammering Perez. At 22:49 the card closes with the Brewers visiting the Padres, where sharp money has pushed the line toward San Diego despite the majority of tickets sitting on Kyle Harrison, leading both hosts to the Padres and the under. The hosts also run through a batch of additional games, including a look at Hunter Brown starting in San Francisco and a Los Angeles Dodgers team total play against Kansas City's Michael Wacha, tying into the ripple effects of the Tarik Skubal trade. At 29:30 the show shifts into its recurring NFL win total series with a full breakdown of the San Francisco 49ers, who sit near nine and a half wins for the coming season. Manji lays out the offseason additions of Mike Evans and Christian Kirk, the return of Deebo Samuel, and last year's plus 66 point differential in a loaded NFC West, while Essler zeroes in on a difficult closing schedule that includes the league's first regular season game in Australia against a Los Angeles Rams team now featuring Myles Garrett after his blockbuster trade away from Cleveland. The two hosts land on opposite sides of the total, with Essler leaning under and Manji taking the over and projecting a ten win season if the roster stays healthy. The episode wraps with best bets from both hosts, Essler backing the Yankees moneyline against Seattle and Manji riding the Dodgers team total over against Kansas City, plus a lighthearted exchange about fantasy football plans for the year.

Munaf Manji talks betting for Monday. Munaf Manji runs the Monday, August 10 edition of Cash That Ticket on his own, with Dave Essler away handling personal matters and expected back Tuesday, when the show will also tackle the next NFL win total as preseason opens this week. Munaf opens with an honest look at a rough recent stretch for baseball wagering, both on the podcast and for his clients on Pregame.com, pointing to Sunday's setback as the latest example. He had backed the Brewers at minus one and a half with Jacob Misiorowski on the mound, only to watch Kody Clemens hit a two run home run that tied the game and forced extra innings. Milwaukee won outright but the run line ticket fell short. Friday's Best Bet podcast fared better, cashing on the Cleveland Guardians moneyline with Parker Messick starting. Munaf also touches on the Dodgers, who snapped a losing streak over the weekend only to fall again on Sunday against the Diamondbacks, where Eduardo Rodriguez worked seven strong innings against a Los Angeles offense he calls shockingly quiet given the roster's talent. From there, Munaf runs his weekly standings check, noting the Rays hold a five and a half game lead over the Yankees in the American League East while the Red Sox slide to seven games back after dropping their weekend series to the Athletics. The White Sox lead the Tigers by three and a half games in the AL Central, and the AL West sits as the league's tightest race, with the Astros up half a game on the Rangers and the Mariners four back in a division where every team carries a negative run differential. In the National League, the Braves hold an eight and a half game lead over the Phillies, the Brewers are up five and a half on the Cubs, and the Dodgers remain seven and a half games clear of the Diamondbacks despite their recent stumble. Munaf then works through five matchups on the Monday card. Sonny Gray and the Red Sox visit Jameson Taillon and the Blue Jays, with Gray's strong road and night splits pushing Munaf toward Boston on the moneyline despite a rocky recent history against this Toronto lineup. Christian Scott and Bryce Elder headline Mets at Braves, where a surging Mets offense and warm, carrying conditions in Atlanta have Munaf leaning to the over. Andrew Painter continues to scuffle for the Phillies against Hunter Dobbins and the Cardinals, and with a bullpen Munaf calls putrid over the last month, he leans to the over, whether through the first five innings or the full game. Logan Henderson gets the assignment for the Brewers against Casey Mize and the Padres, and between Henderson's dominant recent form and a Sunday Night Baseball fade trend that favors Milwaukee, Munaf names this his best bet of the show, the Brewers moneyline at minus 115. Blade Tidwell makes just his second career start for the Giants opposite Hayden Wesneski and the Astros, and rather than lay heavy juice on a shorthanded Houston lineup, Munaf leans to the over. He credits Yordan Alvarez with carrying the top of the Astros order while Jose Altuve works through a down year, with Jeremy Peña, Cam Smith, and Daulton Varsho all contributing. Before wrapping, Munaf previews tonight's marquee pitching matchup, Tarik Skubal for the Dodgers against Noah Cameron and the Royals, calling it the best chance yet for a struggling Los Angeles offense to turn things around given Skubal's strong recent history against Kansas City. Munaf closes with a reminder about the Pregame.com Bulk Dollars promotion, twenty dollars for one hundred Bulk Dollars that can be spent like cash across any best bet package and never expires, even though the promotion window itself closes at midnight tonight. He signs off hoping Dave Essler returns Tuesday and that the next episode arrives with a winning best bet already in hand, wishing listeners good luck with their bets and encouraging them to enjoy the games.
