Summary
JMark and Miranda break down the newly released NFL schedule by giving one must-watch game and one must-bet game for every week from Week 1 through Week 18. Justin also points out some early-line value and several “trap game” spots. They discuss the NFL’s leak-heavy rollout, the season opener being on a Wednesday, and react to Aaron Rodgers news. Along the way, they share a personal update about picking up two bee hives, then review Rabbit Hole Cavehill Kentucky Straight Bourbon in old fashioneds and neat. They note a grain-forward nose and a spicy start with a strong honey finish on the palate. 00:00 - Show Intro 01:19 - Schedule Release Drama 01:52 - Weekend Beekeeping Story 05:33 - Rodgers to Steelers Talk 06:28 - Weeks 1-4 Picks 13:06 - Weeks 5-8 Rivalries and Traps 17:56 - Weeks 9-11 Midseason Angles 22:01 - Week 12 Thanksgiving Slate 23:30 - Weeks 13-14 Chiefs Gauntlet 26:21 - Panthers Over Saints 28:36 - Week 15 Spotlight Picks 29:48 - Week 16 Christmas Slate 31:21 - Week 17 Trap Games 32:45 - Week 18 Finale Bets 34:51 - Rabbit Hole Cave Hill 37:56 - Taste Notes And Scores
