S2 Ep12: The Punt Return: Betting on the NFL - Sleeper in Seattle, Philly Philly & Magic Mike Thomas
Nick, James & Josh are all back on deck for the Week 11 Edition of The Punt Return Podcast.
Josh opens the show discussing the curveballs that the NFL continually throws out, with not only three 1-7 teams claiming victory in Week 10, but it was the first time since 2001 that a team on a losing streak of at least six games beat a team on a winning streak of at least six games (Atlanta Falcons def. New Orleans Saints).
The boys then turn their attention to some other Week 10 takeaways, with James brings up the possibility of a Super Bowl "Sleeper in Seattle."
Can Russell Wilson lead the Seahawks through a vaunted NFC to hoist another Lombardi Trophy? James certainly thinks so.
Wilson is also very much in the mix for the NFL MVP award, which Nick mentions is completely wide open after yet another perfect performance from Baltimore's Lamar Jackson.
After recapping another successful week of results, the crew then look ahead to Week 11, which looks to be a tricky slate, featuring some blockbuster matches including a Super Bowl LII rematch between the Philadelphia Eagles & New England Patriots.
The boys debate how many times the phrase “Philly Special” will be said during the broadcast, with Nick hoping to see the vision of Super Bowl MVP Nick "Philly Philly" Foles as many times as possible.
The Detroit Lions vs Dallas Cowboys match sparked some madness from Josh, who, for the third time this year, called out 'Matthew Edwards F#*&!ng Patricia' and his tendency to blow leads, but then the discussion took a 90 degree turn towards Dallas HC, Jason Garrett, and a very good discussion on the Cowboys play-calling, especially in key moments where they continue to take the ball out of Dak Prescott’s hands.
Followers of the show will know Nick has been on an absolute tear on long shot picks this season, and the apple of his eye this week is 'Magic Mike' Thomas. The New Orleans Saints' WR has been phenomenal since Drew Brees’ return, and Nick expects that to continue against a hapless Buccaneers secondary.
The Week 11 podcast also features a double apology from Nick & James to the Oakland Raiders, many a rant from Josh on "QB Winzz" and a spicy Sean McVay take.
As always, the show ends with Best Bets, Long Shots and a quick look at the Stats Insider’s Model favourite plays for the Week.
