'Watch Isiah Pacheco's props' 👀 BETTING info for Baltimore Ravens vs. Kansas City Chiefs 🤑

how about great news for football fans the NFL season officially begins Thursday with the Ravens visiting the Chiefs currently the defending champs are a field goal favorite total sitting at 465 at ESPN bet reigning League MVP Lamar Jackson plus 1,600 to repeat this year ESPN bets set is propped for Thursday night at one and a half passing TDS and 2182 passing yards as for Mahomes he's the MVP favorite at plus 475 his passing touchdown prop also just one and a half but you got a hey a lot of juice on the over there his yardage prop at 268 and a hook we have reports on both teams and we'll start with the defending Champion Kansas City Chiefs and Michelle Steele she's in the show me State uh Michelle Chiefs back in a familiar spot opening up at home as a banner gets raised they're a three-point favorite minus 150 on the money line but last year in a spot just like this they tripped up and lost at home to the Detroit Lions on opening night so what are you hearing about how much that week one performance is or is not on the Minds this year Well Tyler players are always going to say they don't dwell on poor performances but I got to tell you that week one opener from 2023 certainly still stings and it stings the biggest player on this team Patrick Mahomes who felt like they were kind of pushed around by a more hungry Lions team and remember that was the first game in Mahomes career as the starter where he lost the season opener he doesn't want that to happen this time and the coaches are emphasizing to players be physical in this game the team that flexes the most physicality is the most likely to win last year Mahomes went just 21 of 39 for 226 yards in that 21- 20 loss and he certainly and his teammates are not taking anything for granted even when or perhaps especially when it's at Arrowhead they want to win this one all right well Mahomes excited for a few new weapons in his offense though one of those Maris Brown listed as doubtful for Thursday's opener so if he is out who is in line to get some of those targets that would have gone Hollywood Browns way yeah you know what I would actually look at the other Speedster that they picked up in the off season their first round draft pick out of Texas wide receiver Xavier worthy obviously very fast just like Hollywood Brown does some similar things and they were both brought in to accomplish the one thing that this Chief's offense couldn't do last year and that is throw the B the ball down the field now there are options of course in the passing game for KC whether you're talking about Travis Kelce who's going to see a lot of action or uh Rashid rice who at some point has a pending suspension against him likely but if you're looking for someone to take some of those targets that you would have gotten with Hollywood Brown I would look to Xavier worthy can't teach speed in Xavier worthy literally the fastest man ever at the NFL scouting combine thank you Michelle Steele from KC getting this ready for Thursday thanks Tyler as for the visitors we're joined by our Ravens reporter now Jameson Hensley Jameson Baltimore coming into this one with some question marks too Mark Andrews was in a car accident that caused him to miss some time do you expect that he'll see the same amount of snaps we're accustomed to seeing him get yeah when I spoke with Mark Andrews he described that accident as extremely scary but he remarkably was not injured in it and Andrews has been a full participant in the last four practices here with the Ravens and he told me he's ready to go now I think the bigger question is what kind of impact will Mark Andrews have because one of the reasons why the Chiefs have beaten the Ravens for the last five times is because they've taken away Lamar Jackson's favorite weapon in those five meetings with the Kansas City Chiefs Andrews has been held to 21.9 yard receiving and has not scored a touchdown that obviously will have to change if the Ravens want to upset the Chiefs in Arrowhead yeah then there are the big changes to the other side of the ball not just coaching but personnel as well for a Baltimore defense that led the league in points allowed per game last year are we expecting an encore type performance with the new faces in charge of the defense and running it yeah I think if we've known anything about this Ravens defense over the years is you know they're going to hit and they're going to be stingy because in five of the past six years the Ravens have finished in the top three in fewest points allowed now the big change is at defensive coordinator Mike McDonald the last year's defensive coordinator he's now the head coach in Seattle Zack or is the new defensive coordinator for the Ravens just eight years removed from being an allpro inside linebacker here or talked about being a firsttime play caller and the biggest challenge going against the Chiefs he said they can score anywhere on the field and you just can't stay on that play Because as he put it Andy Reid and the Chiefs are always one step ahead going to be quite a test for or and his defense against Reed momes and the defending Super Bowl champion Chiefs thanks for getting us ready for Thursday Jameson Hensley all right so here is how the public is playing this one at the ESPN into it this one shocks you a little bit a little bit maybe we would want you know the three with the rap I wouldn't blame anyone going either way it's a good game so pretty much split down the middle just a slight preference by the public for the Chiefs we're talking tickets and money there both hovering around 58 59% so not overwhelming by any stretch of the imagination Aaron we're a little more than 48 hours out thank God the weather's dropping so I'm good to go it's time for NFL I I hear you say you're a little shocked by that so are you on the raven inside then if you I haven't made a game pick just yet because I'm not really too excited about the three like I'd rather take the Chiefs at minus 2 and a half we'll see if it ends up dropping back down to this but I have so many player props cooked up and ready to go for this more specifically one of the guys that I'm going to be looking at is Isaiah Pacho we just heard in that report of course Maris Brown he's going to be doubtful I'm not expecting him to play in that and then you slide in someone who's like Xavier worthy which is great he's a rookie fast as can be but at the same time it is your first game week one going against a really good defense and then speaking of that defense they did lose Javon Clowney as well as Patrick Queen they do have a new defensive coordinator which is why I'm looking at a guy like Pacho I was betting on him non-stop at the end of last season as well as in the postseason they were handing him the ball non-stop so if Patrick Mahomes and those wi outs aren't really clicking for some reason because we know last year they really struggled with that at the beginning of the Season even midseason but they turned things around with the Super Bowl so just starting week one I will be looking at a guy like Isaiah p and see how his some of his props are moving around as well as the line for the game I am focusing on that Baltimore defense specifically and Kansas City's as well I'll talk about that in a minute but Mike mcdonal now the head coach with Seattle Patrick Queen going to division rival Pittsburgh these are significant losses for a defense that was historically great last year like there's going to be some regression for the Ravens that's just the way math works so how much is it do they drop from the best defense to like top five top 10 they drop to middle of the pack going up against momes week one is going to be a difficult test especially since he now has some speed to work with at wide receiver so I kind of like the over here I don't know if I'm picking a side yet but I kind of like lers are a big thing that was huge last times sometimes we got to forget what we last Saw um I just think 46 and a half is a bit low for a guy like Mahomes who has added weapons and that Chief's defense loses leria Sneed and he was a lock down quarterback last year so derck Henry now alongside Lamar Jackson biting my tongue noing about all the props that I have listed in front of me you got 48 Hours tune in tomorrow we got two shows before kickoff so there'll be plenty of opportunity there that's just what I'm thinking about right now is the over no one committing yet we're not committing to anything we're not committing yet although things are place all right let's bring in our third voice and third face today Anita a marks welcome to the show good evening to you what has your attention a couple of days away from kickoff yeah and and I can't get here fast enough right I feel like let's go Christmas is I know I I like I can't play enough pickle ball to pass the time Thursday's got to get here man uh Tyler first things first I'm with you dude I love the over here I get 1710 in that AFC title game but as you two so eloquently pointed out these two teams really different Kansas City improves their offense love the worthy pick bringing him in in the draft fastest man on the planet we'll see I'm sure Tyreek Hilla has something to say about that Baltimore their defense Chang as Aaron mentioned Patrick Queen gone Daven Clowney gone gone new defensive coordinator but also as you pointed out Tyler uh Kansas City's losing some guys on their defensive side as well let's not forget Willie gay left because of free agency so both these defenses take a step back both these offenses improve with Derk Henry of course in that back field I got him scoring a touchdown and I'm with you Aaron I've already gone to the window with a ton of player props uh tune in on Thursday Aon and I are going to tee them up for you but I got Derek Henry touchdown I got wor the longest reception hold are we giving it all out now hold up I can't wait I can't oh I got a plethora baby make sure you don't miss our Thursday show let's go I'm trying to cut you off to stop giving out the pick listen I would expect nothing less from both true Aaron and Anita here but I will say with that score in the AFC Championship game being 27 like there's a difference between an AFC Championship game in week one of the NFL we can't just completely look at what just happened last game don't be looking at the numbers run in the mall look look to what's happening this in 48 hours 48 hours we still got time anding your chill I'm marinating things I don't know if I'm as if I'm as deep into it yet as you two are but I'll get there I'm sure all right [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music]
