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.

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.

Rams cornerback Trent McDuffie describes the emotional reaction in the Rams' locker room when Jared Verse was traded for Myles Garrett, revealing just how beloved Verse was there. Ken and Anthony highlight Verse's early impact in Cleveland too, including Todd Monken's story about Verse mentoring rookie Spencer Fano on footwork and hand technique after practice. That leads into a bigger debate over whether Verse's leadership matters more for this rebuilding Browns team than the raw sack production Garrett brought last year. Ken pushes the idea that 2026 is about culture and building blocks rather than win totals, while acknowledging the team still needs to show real progress on the field.

Whitworth explains how L.A.'s revamped secondary — built around new corners Trent McDuffie and Jaylen Watson — solves the coverage issues that plagued the defense last year, and details how Sean McVay's staff will likely move Garrett around alongside Braden Fiske, Kobie Turner, and Byron Young up front. The two also dig into the Rams' looming contract crunch on the offensive line, with Whitworth predicting the team leans toward locking up interior players first to protect Matthew Stafford. 0:01 - 3:45): Introductions and personal nicknames.

Kansas City just gutted its own secondary — was it the right move? The Chiefs traded away star cornerback Trent McDuffie to the Rams and let Jaylen Watson also walk to LA in free agency, a massive shakeup in the defensive backfield. The response? The Chiefs used their first three draft picks on defensive players for the first time since 2018, headlined by LSU cornerback Mansoor Delane, who they hope can develop into a difference-maker much like McDuffie did.Mike Settle breaks down whether all this defensive turnover — combined with what's left of the 2022 draft class — sets this unit up to compete, or if Kansas City is rolling the dice heading into the season.Plus: JG's back with hot takes on anything and everything (no stats required), Tanner runs down the week's biggest sports headlines, and the guys kick off Draft Board season with a simple question — who's a player you're drafting no matter what?Drop your Chiefs defense prediction in the comments — are you buying the rebuild, or are you worried?Analytics, gut takes, and Chiefs Kingdom talk — this is the Sports Buffoons.

On this episode of the JT Sports Podcast, JT ranks the 10 biggest offseason moves that could decide the Super Bowl race, from Myles Garrett transforming the Rams into the NFL's newest superteam to Jesse Minter, Jim Leonhard, Kenneth Walker, Jaylen Waddle, Trey Hendrickson, Trent McDuffie, DJ Moore, Mike McDaniel, and Dexter Lawrence changing the championship outlook for their new teams. JT also breaks down why the Rams' loaded roster comes with more risk than people realize, responds to backlash over ranking the Bengals ahead of the Steelers, explains why Lamar Jackson continues to be judged by a different standard despite building a Hall of Fame résumé, examines the Denver Broncos' rise from dark horse to legitimate Super Bowl contender, discusses why the San Francisco 49ers remain dangerous despite losing the NFC spotlight, and previews Mike McCarthy's first season with the Steelers by asking whether Pittsburgh's new era can finally end years of playoff frustration. Could the Rams become the NFL's next dynasty? Can the Broncos, Ravens, Bills, Bengals, Chiefs, or 49ers stop them? And which offseason move will ultimately decide who hoists the Lombardi Trophy?
On the Monday episode of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by FanDuel and Edgar Snyder & Associates, the Post-Gazette's Adam Bittner and Christopher Carter discuss colleague Gerry Dulac's reporting on the Steelers' contract negotiations with Joey Porter Jr. Is there a chance the two sides won't reach an agreement on an extension before the season? How much is Porter Jr. realistically worth compared to other top corners like Patrick Surtain II, Derek Stingley Jr., Trent McDuffie and Sauce Gardner? And do the Steelers need him in their secondary with veterans like Jamel Dean and Jalen Ramsey aging and young players like Daylen Everette still finding their way? Our duo tackles those questions. Then later, Chris details his research on how realistic Mike McCarthy's goal of 55 touches per game can be for skill players including DK Metcalf, Michael Pittman Jr. and Jaylen Warren. And he explains how he feels Robert Spears-Jennings fits into Patrick Graham's defense following his most recent film study on the PG website. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

On this episode of the JT Sports Podcast, JT reacts to the Rams becoming the NFL's final boss after trading for Myles Garrett and turning an already-loaded roster into a Super Bowl-or-bust monster. Did Los Angeles just weaponize its biggest weaknesses with Garrett, Trent McDuffie, and Jaylen Watson? Can Matthew Stafford, Puka Nacua, Davante Adams, Sean McVay, and this new-look defense become a 12, 13, or even 15-win team? JT also breaks down how the Rams' urgency exposes the 49ers, why ring culture has poisoned NFL debates around players like Lamar Jackson and coaches like Kyle Shanahan, and how Super Bowl rings should shape legacy without becoming the only argument that matters. Plus, JT discusses why D.J. Moore could be a major win for the Bills with Josh Allen and Joe Brady, why Kyler Murray may already be taking control of the Vikings QB job over J.J. McCarthy, why the Giants WR room has more names than answers with Malik Nabers, OBJ, JuJu Smith-Schuster, Darnell Mooney, and Braxton Berrios, how A.J. Brown changes everything for Drake Maye and the Patriots, and whether Deshaun Watson still has one last chance to save his Browns career with Todd Monken and Shedeur Sanders waiting in Cleveland.
Carl and Mike open the show with their thoughts on the Rams trading for Myles Garrett and agree that with the previous edition of Trent McDuffie, the Rams have once again pushed all their chips in to make a strong run to the Super Bowl and share their thoughts on why the Falcons are nowhere near close to be able to make that type of deal.
Episode DescriptionIn this episode of Go for 2, we dive deep into the results of the 2026 NFL Draft to identify the true winners of the weekend. We analyze the strategy behind the picks, focusing on roster replenishment, developmental upside, and immediate impact starters.What we cover:#5 - Indianapolis Colts: Chris Ballard does it again. Despite no first-round pick, the Colts stole CJ Allen at 53 and found "absurd value" throughout Day 3. #4 - Carolina Panthers: Trench warfare. We look at how Monroe Freeling and Lee Hunter immediately turn the Panthers' biggest weaknesses into strengths.#3 - Minnesota Vikings: A heavy focus on the defense. Brian Flores gets a new high-ceiling toy in Caleb Banks and a potential gem in Jakobe Thomas.#2 - Kansas City Chiefs: Turning a thin roster into a deep one. We break down the trade that sent Trent McDuffie to the Rams and how KC turned that capital into nine total picks, including Peter Woods and Mansoor Delane.#1 - Cleveland Browns: The gold standard of 2026. How Andrew Berry overhauled the offense in two picks with Spencer Fano and KC Concepcion, plus the Day 2 'steal' of Denzel Boston.
Erin Coscarelli and Rob Havenstein are joined by The Athletic's Rams beat writer Nate Atkins to break down Los Angeles' 2026 NFL Draft. Nate reveals the Ty Simpson pick at #13 was months in the making — part of a deliberate plan to secure a succession quarterback behind Matthew Stafford while simultaneously freeing up future first-round picks for aggressive trades, with the Rams effectively treating the first round as two moves: the #29 pick to land Trent McDuffie, and #13 on their QB of the future. Rob addresses why the Stafford-Simpson dynamic won't disrupt the locker room, and the group agrees the team's biggest impact moves may still be coming at the trade deadline.

The bold Chiefs do it again moving up from the 9th pick to number 6 to draft the "smooth" Monsoor Delane out of LSU. This gifted corner is expected to be a much more impactful corner than Trent McDuffie and will save the team $80 million over the next four years versus their former CB1. And wait until you hear him. He's got natural leader written all over him. Long gone are the days of sitting and just drafting the highest rated player on the board. These championship caliber Chiefs are relentless in getting the player they need. And they did it again. Delane was surprised and thrilled but the second happiest man Thursday was defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo who had a rough off season watching his player let go to make more money elsewhere. KU is borrowing even more money to run their athletics department and it feels more and more like how DC works. We have some incredible listener emails to share that could bring a tear to your eye and/or make you laugh. The SPLC scam is particularly alarming to Ron Freeman, author of the book "Rethinking Race." He shares his thoughts. And we have a song for you to finish up that's fitting based on one of the stories we featured about my childhood earlier in the week.

Episode 373 - Help Wanted: World Champs Looking for a Running Back RUNDOWN Mitch and Hotshot react to the growing likelihood that the Seahawks could lose star running back Kenneth Walker in free agency, debating whether John Schneider's reluctance to franchise tag him signals a different plan at running back. The conversation explores possible draft options, Seattle's roster strategy after a Super Bowl season, and the risks of relying on a rookie backfield solution. Jason Hamilton joins Mitch to discuss his decision to step away after 24 years as the radio analyst for Washington Huskies basketball, reflecting on his journey from UW player to assistant coach to broadcaster. Hamilton explains how the move from the Pac-12 to the Big Ten dramatically changed the travel demands of the job, making it increasingly difficult to balance with his career and family life. Brady Farkas and Joe Doyle join Mitch to analyze the biggest storylines emerging from Mariners spring training, including the development of top prospects Colt Emerson, Cole Young, and Cade Anderson. The discussion covers roster realities heading toward Opening Day—why Emerson likely starts in the minors, how Brendan Donovan stabilizes the top of the lineup, and whether Brennan Davis could force his way into the outfield mix later in the season. RJ Eskanos and Dylan Travers join Mitch to break down the Seattle Kraken's precarious playoff positioning with 20 games remaining, describing the Pacific Division race as a "turtle derby" where nearly every contender is struggling. The trio discuss the team's inconsistency, the addition of volume-shooting forward Bobby McMann, Jordan Eberle's contract extension, and the surprising resurgence of goaltender Philipp Grubauer.

Will Tom Brady be the modern-day Bugsy Siegel in Las Vegas? Being a great player is no guarantee of future success as a coach or executive. Michael Jordan, a majority owner of the Charlotte Bobcats/Hornets, and Wayne Gretzky, behind the bench for the Phoenix Coyotes, were classic examples. Jason questions whether Brady, a minority owner of the Las Vegas Raiders, will follow suit as the sometimes not-so-stealthy leader of the team. The Raiders imploded last season with a new head coach and quarterback and now are on the verge of losing the face of the franchise, Maxx Crosby, while beginning anew with a different head coach and quarterback. Steve Kim and Jay Skapinac join the conversation, responding to Stephen A. Smith explaining how he moved on up from the mean streets; Kendrick Perkins claiming that a title will elevate Jalen Brunson to the greatest player in New York Knicks history; and Fight Night at a women's college basketball game. Shaun King shares his takes on Logan Paul offering $1 million to any NFL player who can beat him in combat; the A's telling Kyler Murray he can come home; and the Los Angeles Rams sending a bevy of draft picks to Kansas City for premium cornerback Trent McDuffie.
