Matt Brown (0:09)

Hey, it's Rich Headbett here on a Sunday. VSiN, the eSportsBetting Network, Matt Brown, Wes Reynolds coming to you live downtown Las Vegas, world's largest sports book out here behind me, and they are paying attention to a couple of games that are going on out here, Wes, because there are survivor implications, there are spread implications, there are all kinds of things as we get down to the final seconds of some of these games.

Wes Reynolds (0:30)

Yeah, no question about it as we go down to the wire. By the way, we have a tie score now. Chris Boswell, good from 58 yards out, Pittsburgh 16, Tampa Bay 16, Bucs had a big lead in this one, 13 nothing here in the fourth quarter. Tampa Bay will get the ball just under the two minute warning and two timeouts.

Matt Brown (0:49)

We are all eyes here on the Colts and the Titans as the Colts are sitting west. What did we end up? That was the final number here yesterday. We have 703 or 24.2% of circus survivor pool and two Grandesimo entries on the Colts trailing by three to the Titans with a minute left in the game.

Wes Reynolds (1:12)

Yep. And yeah, got to start taking timeouts now as Titans in Colts territory. Meanwhile in New England, we have a fourth and one from the four and I believe they went ahead and took a penalty. And boy, that's bad news if you're a Jets spreadbacker like me.

And they're going to kick a short field goal here. It is 23 to 16, 114 left to go. Jets out of timeouts. Was hoping maybe that New England would just kind of sneak it there and get the first down and take knees. And now you got a chip shot for Bora Gallas. And he is good.

SPEAKER_1 (1:46)

So 26, 16

Matt Brown (1:49)

10 point lead now for the Pats with a minute 12 left. So as Wes said, need a miracle for that one to cover. And you know, this Pats team, we talked about the Colts having a lot on them. This Patriots team, 821 entries over there in Circus Survivor and four over in Grandissimo on this Patriots team. So those entries looking pretty good. We did get a walk off in Cleveland. Cleveland Browns 13, Baltimore Ravens 10

As the Browns walk it off there, Wes, and the Browns are four and two through six weeks of the NFL season.

Wes Reynolds (2:27)

Yeah, imagine that. Derrick Henry, only 58 yards on the ground today. And Cleveland, not much offense, but a lot of defense. And they had enough 13 to 10 final score. Meanwhile, going to Tampa, not quite a pick six here, but the turnover happens for Jalen Daniels. Steelers gonna have first and goal now, almost returned that to the house. So boy, this would be a tough, this be a tough beat on the box. This was 16 to three, start in the fourth quarter.

And that is no good if you're a Bucks backer.

Matt Brown (2:58)

Yeah, that is absolutely brutal. You were feeling really good if you were holding that Bucks ticket. But now looking up here, first and goal from the three yard line for the Steelers with a minute 38 left. So pretty tough beat there on that one, Wes.

Wes Reynolds (3:11)

Yeah, no question about it. These games, you feel secure and they're like never over. Some of these games that were blowouts, all of a sudden, they're one score game, one score game in Philadelphia, Carolina 19 to 14, about half of the fourth quarter left to play. Carolina just now in the Philadelphia territory. Giants have cut it to 10 against New Orleans, five minutes left to go, 34 to 24

And also Atlanta has cut to a one score game, 31, 23, 411 left to go. This is going to be fourth down, I think, for the Bears, so they are going to have to go ahead and punt the football. Tennessee kicks a field goal good from 44 yards for Joey Sly, so no timeouts left for the Colts, 43 seconds left to go, 26 to 20

Matt Brown (3:56)

This is, it was third and five here, Wes, for the Bears, and there is a flag on the play. I don't know who the flag is on, so it will either be a Bears punt, or they're gonna get some sort of first down.

Wes Reynolds (4:09)

Yeah, I don't know if they're looking at grounding, cause that's a sack, cause I think Caleb Williams' knee was down.

Matt Brown (4:15)

Oh, I think they're looking, cause I guess they called pass interference, but if his knee was down, then the pass never happened.
