Ariel Epstein, Yahoo Sports Betting Analyst

Now joining us in studio. I've known her for I think like a decade and now she's a mega mega megastar they call her the proper queen she's a sports betting host and analyst for the Yahoo sports book could also watch her all the time on MLB network at MBA TV and that's area lab scenario.

How are you I'm so great. Thank you for having me on in person. Nonetheless, first time ever that were Danish and imprisoned. Yes that's right I have seen you in person before.

Back at the Barrett sports media Summit where Arielle was a big star never want to talk to you about the battle early in the optimize now LOL all this is is just how can I win money all these betting companies good time to be in it. I had the wrong career choice, but there from this ridiculous some amount of cash out all these people the sports betting world blew up in the pandemic. I knew getting into it in 2019. Sports betting would blow up in the next 10 years, especially in New York.

It was good to be so strict they said 10 years probably is what we have. It was almost not that the pandemic was a good thing, but everyone being at home. Everyone just let their guard down. We could embrace marijuana, legalize that a bunch of states and then when just embracing that into everyone's doing a very wise so approve approve appropriately to make money somehow you have to be able to better New York because Connecticut and New Jersey were both legalizing it is driving from my parents house in New York and we were driving across the border, 20, 20 minutes down the side down the street to go to New Jersey and placing that desperately work entertainment. Yeah, my friends.

Sunday mornings would take the path train for my New York City apartment and financial districts like 10 minutes just to get a New Jersey you have to walk up the platform they would go right outside the platform place their bets. Then walk right back down.

Take the train back and they made it back for the 1 o'clock games I got to get to some over unders. I picked out like six or seven right here that are just intriguing to me. The Cardinals on the fence of their to make the playoffs this year. No DeAndre Hopkins the first six games of the season. Just got the deal done with Kyla Murray their overwhelmed her when I just checked a few moments ago is 8 1/2. That seems low to me, but like an idiot. I say it seems low and that I go cash it at the over than the under one is that limbo that limbo area because Arizona is a team that they had so much promise with such great receivers you got younger Hopkins you have Hollywood Brown. Now you're facing suspensions with most of your show how is the quarterback of the Cardinals. Kylie Murray going to adjust throughout the season. Having to distribute the but other weapons while he's figuring out the situation with his receivers who are suspended really like James Connor at running back. The second half of the season.

He really showed up in the in the passing game and in the rushing game. He was great with the dynamic running back. He could really help Kyla Murray out if he stays healthy. I like Arizona. The problem is it to stay away from me in the win total because of the uncertainty at receiver.

Because of the uncertainty of the health at defense. In addition to being one of the toughest divisions in the league in the NFC West when you have to go up against teams like the Rams were going to be fully loaded. You have just a lot of really tough teams to go up against throughout the year that it's a stay away from me.

I'll give you another one on this team last year abroad in Charlotte. The Panthers they started for you know then all the quarterbacks that they were playing got heard it was a disaster you bring in Baker McCaffrey's only played in 10 games last two years.

This team last year they won five games. They have a better offense of why I must say there could be great. But this could be a seven win team. The over unders at 6 1/2. It's right there in that range.

Revising is right for the Panthers they could get on a football team, but history kinda show. Not every thing goes right for the Panthers. Many over 6 1/2 lens. The quarterback situation could be worth at least they had to quarterbacks that have started in the NFL before. It's not like your thinking about San Francisco, where if you switch over to tray lands now your questioning how he's transitioning to the NFL. I'm not concerned for the Panthers if they do have to make a quarterback switch because you have veteran leadership on the team. I also love Christian McCaffrey. He is up there at the top of the list for comeback player of the year and get the check second shortest odds. The Panthers dander coaching staff back and now it's okay. We have some consistency under head coach Matt rule Carolyn over 6 1/2 is in a bad play less and in week one, you're gonna get a revenge spot between Baker Mayfield and his former team, the Cleveland Browns, who don't have a quarterback. Sorry Jacoby process.

Sorry Josh Dobbs but I'm just not like to reverse that and you're not wrong if you listen this week started games in the league if I have to take a quarterback.

I really would rather take Baker meet up. To be honest, you no doubt. So you bring up the Browns there so talk to bet if we were talked about this a few weeks ago now we know Watson's out the first 11 games and if he stays healthy and goes gold is counseling at all that for the despicable things he's accused of off the field. He'll get back.

I think there's a bias of its week 13 up against the Texans thereover under is 8 1/2 crazy is like to stay away the Cleveland Browns.

You've got to be out of your mind to go but that's when total I can see in a division like the AFC North were you at the bangles and the ravens that the Cleveland Browns were going to be slopping up quarterbacks throughout the year.

Now now and you know that.

Take the other thing you know how I'm not here if you want to bet this that the under.

You hate the Browns like most of NFL fans do, that the under for fine I did last year with the Jacksonville Jaguars, which I did actually really like there under 6 1/2. It was my biggest preseason bat last year have to admit it's a lot of fun to bed and under on a team that everyone in football gonna be picking on throughout the season could be the Cleveland Browns this year. While they don't know who they're putting it under center until DeShawn Martin comes back and even went to Jean Watson comes back people are gonna hate on Cleveland. He's not you have enough time to help this team get over the win total. He hasn't played in over a year. Stay away or if you really want to bash the Browns go bet the under and have some fun with learning from the area.

Once the and I think you're exactly right Sean Watson, you're exactly right. A year ago to dislike urban Meyer you like to bet the teams that you just don't like to go all right. Let's see them really suffer and let's have them get the younger sister look at the chemistry in the locker room like urban Meyer with the Jaguars last year. Yeah I got off to a bad start when he was kicking the kicker supposedly bad start in the preseason already teams alike can then wheat wine which I ready. Of course, had the bat in week one urban Meyer doesn't use the running back James Robbins will yeah all he was like running back to the first Didn't use James Robinson at all. I think he had 78 rushing yards master 70 combined yards total yards in the first game and they were up against the worst run defense in football from the year before.

It was a slamdunk bet on James Robinson to go over his total yardage at that point I was so excited I bet that under six and half because I was ready to root against the Jaguars and for the rest of the is there one bed still to this day that everyone has that bet. I know where you're going with this, and I'll say yes that they made and obviously should happen or fantasy bat be like always reference I had no pants a few years ago when they were going up and I think was Tennessee. They were going up against and that idiot Pat Shermer stop getting the football and constable resulted in him.

He was like yeah you like rock in the first half of the second Torah until the end of the game is there one bed all these years later that was a bad beat that you thought was just so affordable. The best that I have ever place and didn't hit for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers final Super Bowl. You know I'm going with this. This is, it has to be a defense supplier. Was this a defensive player for MVP as I had had a better neither shack Barrett or JP.

One of you probably did. JP P. Like a lot of other people. I didn't have either of those hundred timeline check back as he came on the show but it was more maybe 100 to 1 Devon White MVP, the linebacker for the box.

I loved him. He had at least 10 total tackles in every playoff game he played in that year he had 12 tackles and pretty sure in the Super Bowl that year at the game ceiling Internet at an end to end the game in the Super Bowl.

They gave it to Tom Brady was the first separate have a good first half that it was over at Nearly Tom Brady Should've Had Three Interceptions in That Game They Called Back Is Just Hating up with Raven Fitted Everything to Do with Hundred One to Get on Devon White Doing Super Bowl MVP Hundred Bucks on That Big Still and the CLV Imitating 70 to 1. I Was so Pumped about It. He Still Went Heat When He Got That Interception You Want I Can Write One Minute Thought I Had a Chance That Bill Jones of This Portrait Are Listed Here with Us.

Here's One That I Think Is so Low.

This Team Is One Back to Back to Back. 13 Game Seasons Another Don't Have the Bought the Atoms Anymore, but the Packers and Only 10 1/2 Yell Him of the over One November Green Bay, It's One of Those That Are Gonna Be Considering Dante Adams Law Says a Big One but Great Quarterbacks like Aaron Rodgers Whose Back to Back MVP Makes Great Receivers Out Of Anybody You Have To Look at All the Time. Brady Teams in New England and I'm Not Saying That Obviously Hasn't Played with Them. Hall Of Famer Dorothy Had There Are Some Receivers That Played with Tom Brady or Drew Breeds That Would Have Never Been Who They Were. Without Those Quarterbacks. Aaron Rodgers Is Going to Do the Same Thing. Alan Lazard Was Really Good Last Year Lazard to Someone I Rodgers Really like for A Few Years Now and I Was Working at Medical Radio.

There Was A Few Games Early on Were Lazard Would Join Us after James That He Would Have in the End They Just Kept on Talking about the Chemistry. This Was Years Ago. So the Atoms Born in That Division and Also in That Conference. If Green Bay Doesn't Win 11 Games.

Something Had Happened. Rodgers I Hundred Percent of upon Your Karma Cleanse Again Urges Bunch of Psychedelics Again, the League Suspended Him. Kansas City 10 1/2. I Know the Division Is Impossible, but They Should. But What Games Is Saying They Should Win 11 You Laying under the under.

I'm Just Not Fading a Team like the Chiefs Who Continuously Shows up Each Year Having 12 When Season There Division Just Really Tough to Handicap Right Now. If Anything, Look to the Teams below Kansas City for Value Because You're Gonna Get Really Good Value on a Team like the Broncos in Certain Ways You're Gonna Get Teams That Are Good and Even Vegas People Are Looking at Their Car As a Potential Candidate for MVP Is Asleep, There's Really Good Teams Right Now in the AFC West and I Just Had and the Chargers Obviously to I Don't Want to Leave Them out Because You Have Another Year under Quarterback Justin Herbert a Second Year under Your Head Coach. I Just Want to See This. I Want to See How This AFC West Plays out Because Right Now I Just Had Too Many?

When I Get to the Baltimore Ravens about Your Big Ravens for Much of Saying This Because You're Here.

I'm Thinking about Taking the More so When the MVP Because I Believe the Ravens Are to Be in the Playoffs and after the Playoffs. We Know That Offense Is All about Lamar Jackson and I Just Saw That He's +2000 When the MVP Outputs of Money down.

I've Heard People Asked Me about Lamar Jackson Winning MVP Jan Beasley Wanted of Years Ago.

If the Ravens Win the Division. You've Got It Think He's up There on the List Where I'm Looking Now Because I'm Not Gonna Give You All My Ravens Homer Pics Because I've Never Met the Ravens before in My Life. Not One Time. Not One Time. This Is the First Year and It's Not Lamar Jackson MVP I'll Tell You What I Bet for the Ravens. However, My MVP Would Have To Go to the Person That Nearly Beat Lamar Jackson out for It. Lamar Jackson MVP Year and Now Is Russell Wilson Now Multiples and Going over Denver 14 to 12 When MVP at the Broncos Somehow Beat the Chiefs for the AFC West. How Do You Not Give Russell Wilson That Award, Knocking off the Chiefs for the First Time in What Five Years and Mean This Division. It Is Russell Wilson Shaking It up. He's an Amazing Quarterback. He Can Air the Ball out to Receivers like Wetlands and Jerry Judy KJ Handler Plus He Has One of the Best Up-And-Coming Running Backs in the League in Javon Dave I Am I Covered Him in High School by the Ease from Wallace Rose.

He Went to Wallace Rose Hill High School.

Nobody Was Nobody Was Recruiting Him. Not One Person's Head Coach Kevin Mott Singer, One of the Greatest Coaches I've Ever Met in the High School Level. He Went to All the Different Colleges in North Carolina Begged Them to Come Watch to Come Watch Dante Williams Play. They Watched Him in His Sit in the Semis and in the State Championship Game UNC in the State Championship Game Was Watching Javon Dave Williams Scored Four Touchdowns at That Point, Live It, or That Go to the Time of UNC Says They Were Going to Take You on a Visit Stay in the Raleigh Area. They Javon Day Then They Offered Him on the Spot. He Was the Valedictorian at Wallace Rose Hill John Williams Was Able to Graduate This Semester Early and Go to UNC to Practice in the Spring. If Memory Serves Me Right to. I Was Asked These Bizarre Questions Run Draft on Tell Me Something That No One Knows about You. I Think He's a Big Piano Player to Javon and William so Valedictorian in the Big Piano Plus He Also Loves Horses. Apparently He Just Spent His Big Money from the NFL on the Horse's Yeah Everyone Maybe What You Ravens but I Just Get a Sense with You Sitting Here and This Did Cross My Mind Because Everyone Could Pick the Bills People to Love the Rams the Box Is It Ravens Super Bowl Is That Your Pick Ravens Super Bowl at 22 to Once My Fun Pick If I Wanted to Give It out to People What I Think Really Kind When It Would Be +145 Ravens 20 AFC North.

There's No Value Anymore. On the -170 Overnight and 1/2 When the Ravens Were at 24 to 1 and 1.2 in the Super Bowl and Went down to 22 to 1. When I Grabbed It. Now in Vegas Where I Was Just in Vegas All Weekend.

16 to Wanting Some Books for the Ravens to Win the Super Bowl Team That Pushed This Team Two Years Ago That Was Top Three Top Four in the Odds for When They Were Really Good with Those Injuries until Lamar Got Hurt in a Horrible One for Two like Everyday While Harbaugh Went for Two for Every Game, Because Everyone Talks about Lamar Jackson Being Her No One Talks about the Entire Secondary Being Hurt, Including Their Interception Leader Marcus Peters and Even Make It to Game One Now the Ravens Had to Go over to Because Bodies Know What Tackle Running Backs. It Was the One the Coach Admits It after the Game That He Didn't Trust His Secondary to Go to Overtime.

You Know That There Is No Other Option but the Center Offense Led by Tyler Huntley and Quarterback out There.

This Team Was Still in the Second to Last Game of the Year in the Playoff Hunt Here with Us Coach of the Year. I Looked at This Book and I Was Surprised This Was the Answer Because This Whom I Thought I Thought I Was Ahead of the Game Because for These Bets. I Look at Everyone That's Getting Bashed and I Go to Problems Bashing One Person That Usually Has a Good Year This Teams Were in the AFC West. I like Britain's Failure +1400 for Coach of the Year They Were Not Division CMV Problem Was That the Vision Had Become MVP. The Chart Division Is Going to Coach a Year.

I Guess Per-Share. However Even Further down the List at Someone Is a Hall Of Fame Head Coach 41.

Mr. Bill Belichick Really Mr. Multiples Is 4140. No One You Know Me, Even Though More Purple Today about a Ravens That Almost Crazy Patriot Fan like It Though I Don't. Here's Why That Offense. I like Max Jones of the Receivers Are Okay. The Wind Peacefully Offense. I like Yeah the Map Patricia: the Plays and Then If That Doesn't Work out It's Joe George That's a Concern to Its Worked out in the past for Them. Had Tom Brady Anymore You're Talking about a Patriots Team That Last Year Finished One Game behind the Buffalo Bills in the Division with the Rookie Quarterback. They Had the Top.

They Were Top 10 in Points Scored Top Five in Points Allowed the Defense Was Still Good. The Offense Dating Games You Guys First Game between Questions That You Guys Are Not Part of the Team Patriot to Be Part of Patriots and Bells.

The Patrons Were Right in There with the Bells and Emperors Game and I Just Eat Your Number to Another Urine Is That the Macaroons Wasn't Even Supposed to Start Last Year Was Supposed to Be New in One for a Future Hall Of Fame Coach Who Has Won the Award in 12 Years If He Beats the Buffalo Bills for the Division in Some Miraculous Way and They Have a Great Season. Not Bad. I Just Am Not Been about the Coach of the Year Margaret to Be Honest That's I'm Having a Little Fun with This Year. I like Chris Tilapia +800 and Then Move It so Talk to Better Running Back Because, Especially When You Have All the Running Backs on the Roster to and You Never Know How the Cars You Guys a Fumble Week One That Is Employed for Three More Weeks. James Cook in Buffalo +1400 Is There but I Really like the Allow They Picketed 21 Allow They Going to New Orleans Has an Arm and Jim Is Wednesday and Who's Going to Throw the Ball. I Mean This Is the Quarterback That Threw the Ball More Than Anybody Else When He Was Healthy so Long to Filter the Bottom Are the Most Insane Thing Michael Thomas Is a Wildcard. I Would Love for Him to Become That Player of the Year There. These Are Not past Is Longer Than 10 to Wind, However, Is a Wildcard Brain Tells Him to Do. Does He Want to Play.

Does He Not Want to Play Have No Clue I'm Not Trying to Get It. There's No Michael Thomas Krista Labbe Has a Chip on His Shoulder. He Was the One on All the Magazines for College Football Heading into Last Year and This Year Gets Drafted Second Out Of the Ohio State Wide Receivers He so Fast That Mimi's Broken a Million Records at Ohio State. He Was One of the Touchdown Leaders at Ohio State.

I Really like A Lot Of 80 to 1002 More Teams Writers I Didn't Have To Take the over You Will the AFC West so Much Because That's the Division That Ever to Be Talking about All Those Tears I Look at Her. I Don't Really Good One of Those Teams Are Not to Be As Good As He Going Seven and Seven and 110 Notice I Actually Would Rather Go to the Cincinnati Bengals Coming Other Cincinnati Bengals Vibrators. What Now Is Expected.

I'm Not Touching Any of the Wind Totaled in the AFC West. I Want to Go to the Cincinnati Bengals Nancy North Because There's a Trend with All the Super Bowl Runner Ups the Super Bowl Runner-Up in Nine of the Last 10 Seasons Have Had At Least One Less Win Than the Year before. That Means That the Bangles Go down from 10 Wednesday Nine This Year Only One Team Had Ever Had in the Last 10 Years More Wins Than the Season before. After They Were Super Runner-Up and Deafening.

The Patriots of Tom Brady and the Project Scratch Them Every Other Team Whose Average Team and Normalcy and That Was in the New England Dynasty Has Had At Least One Less Win in the Average Is Three Less Wins Cincinnati Regressions That Sign Me up for the Trend I'm Going under Night It Happens I'll Get to the Team That You Hate but I Know You Don't Hate It, in Terms of Making Money. Stealers 7 1/2 We Don't Always Even Started. So It's Talk.

It Should Be Cut Depicted.

I Think It Will Become a Budget Everyone Talks about This Mature Busty Fellow Who I Can Actually Stand Still As of Seven Have To Touch That You Know.

Again, I'm Not Going to Bet Anything That's Uncertain I'm Not Betting on Teams That I Don't Know Who's Quarterback, Especially Quarterback Other Position Sure When I Don't Know Your Quarterback Is, Especially If I Feel like You're Gonna Switch Your Quarterback.

It's Why I'm Not Looking at San Francisco San Francisco Number Was Low ~except There's a Good Chance That Jimmy Corruptly Doesn't Look Good, Because If You Look at His Stats for Each Season.

Every Other Year. Jimmy Corruptly Low Flop/It Was Good Year.

This Could Be Bad Year.

If You're Gonna Switch to Trey Lancer.

If You Have in the Back of His Mind or Upload the Tree. Lance Is Coming in. Want to Touch That When Soto and I Are Doing a Rookie in Pittsburgh during a Rookie, and the Only Trend That You Could Back with Pittsburgh Is That There's Been Many Times Where Ben Roethlisberger Has Not Played Majority of the Season yet the Steelers Still Finished about 500 under That Good Mike Tomlin Got Patrick about 15 Straight Years or Something Is below 500 Right If You Want to Back That Trend Then You Bet the over 7 1/2. Otherwise, for Me As a Smart Better I Stay Away from Uncertainty Okay Now. One Thing We Know That You're Very Good at Is Giving out Props.

I Know I Can Ask You for Any Props Right Now We Don't Even Though You Probably Look at It. The Props Are Ready for Week One. But What's Your Advice on Props Article Francis Susan Stan about Ben's, Especially Early in the Season, You Probably Can Look for the Rosters See If the Rosters on Defense Are about the Same As Last Year. Take Some of Those Teams That Were Really Bad. The Potatoes Bottom Five Teams.

The Teams Bottom Five against the Run Bottom Five against the Path Goal Find Those Receivers and Running Backs and Go Back Those Also Stay Away from Passing Yards Props Those Are so Sharp Good Pass Attempts Props Pass Attempts. Props Are A Lot More Fun to Bet on Props. I Don't Give Ever Bedded past the Temperament for That's What We Got You Path Attempt Props. I Love Those Players like Ben Wallace Berger Tom Brady James Winston the Players That You Know I Say I Know Big Ben Retired, I'm Not Dumb, Just Those Kind of Players Always Tend to Throw the Football, Especially If They Don't Trust the Run Game.
