Episode notes
ADVICE

Bet Bengals Under 9.5

  • Wright's first actual bet is Bengals under 9.5, citing offensive line risk and a belief they mirror last year's results.
  • He recommends taking the under at -115 because he expects Cincinnati to regress and potentially miss the playoffs.
ADVICE

Lean Browns Over 4.5 In 17-Game Season

  • Wright calls the Browns' 4.5 win total disrespectful but ultimately leans over because 17 games make very low totals vulnerable.
  • He suggests taking the over cautiously, expecting Cleveland to exceed four wins despite an ugly schedule.
ADVICE

Fade Steelers Over 8.5

  • Wright leans under Pittsburgh's 8.5, doubting Aaron Rodgers-DK Metcalf offensive fit and predicting a losing season for Mike Tomlin.
  • He advises fading the Steelers to miss the over, expecting regression despite their recent playoff surprise.
