Episode summary

Episode 422, presented by Boost Mobile—nine days from the Super Bowl, and we’re recapping every preseason bet with lines from Hard Rock Bet, so like, rate, subscribe, and let’s get accountable.

How did last week go? Rough for me, strong for Demonsay: Denver plus five and a half cashed, Rams plus two and a half did not, I live‑bet the snowy Patriots‑Broncos under twenty six and a half and hit, and I whiffed on a Kyren‑Davante‑Puka TD parlay plus Rams moneyline after refusing a cash‑out before a brutal fourth‑and‑four.

What’s Demonsay’s updated teaser record? We’re not counting playoff teasers he wouldn’t have made, so he finishes eleven and seven on teasers and eight and four picking playoff games—profit.

How did the regular season picks land? I finished forty four, forty four, and two, which is a small loss once the vig bites.

Overs recap: winners were Jags over seven and a half, Bears over eight and a half, and a lucky Falcons over seven and a half, while losers were Bucs over nine and a half on a late collapse, Chiefs over eleven and a half way off, and Raiders over dead on arrival.

Unders recap: Bengals under nine and a half and Vikings under nine and a half cruised, Cowboys under eight and a half got there with help, and I missed on Colts under seven and a half, Broncos under nine and a half, and a slightly unlucky Niners under ten and a half.

Make‑miss playoffs: make was poor—Jags plus one eighty hit, Chiefs minus three eighty was a disaster, Bucs minus one seventy fell apart late, and long‑shots Raiders and Giants missed—while miss was our best section with Dallas, Minnesota, and Arizona never really in it, a swing at Steelers and Broncos that missed, and a four‑team miss parlay of Saints, Jets, Browns, and Colts that cashed for two units.

Division winners and exactas: I lost Chiefs to win the West and Bucs to win the South, bricked a Ravens‑Bills division parlay, and the yearly Super Bowl exactas of Chiefs‑Bucs at fifty five to one and Chiefs over Bucs at one hundred ten to one both burned, which effectively starts me two units down.

Bottom line: winners totaled fourteen point nine five units, losers were twenty one point zero five, so I’m down six point one units, and without the greedy Chiefs minus three eighty make‑the‑playoffs, it’s down two point three—owning it and moving on.

How did Demonsay’s preseason card do? Five bets total—he nailed Jags to win the South at plus three hundred and dropped four plus‑money swings, including Ravens to win it all, Bijan for rush TDs, and Burrow for passing yards, for a tidy net of minus one unit.

What’s the early Super Bowl prop you teased? Travion Henderson under three and a half receiving yards at minus one twenty, because he’s off the field on passing downs, had two catches for seven yards across his last five, and logged four offensive snaps in the conference title game.

Any early futures to consider from the Hard Rock offer? I’ll take Chiefs at fifteen to one, I think Seahawks shorten from nine to one even if I would not bet them to win, Jags at twenty to one have a little value with Travis Hunter back and year two under Liam Cohen, and the super long shot is Commanders at sixty to one if you believe in Jayden.
