Dodgers Walk it Off, Thursday Night Football Best Bet + Sports Analytics Expert Edward Egros

Straight Fire with Jason McIntyre

On today's episode, Jason kicks things off with a quick thought on the Los Angeles Dodgers' walk-off victory over the St Louis Cardinals in the NL Wild Card game and an explanation as to why he's deathly afraid of getting injured playing in adult rec sports leagues. Later, FanDuel and Bally Sports West sports analytics expert Edward Egros swings by to discuss why bullpen WAR is why he likes the Chicago White Sox to beat the Houston Astros in the MLB Postseason, which advanced stats he thinks matter most in the playoffs, why a weak Big 12 conference may be enough to keep a very underwhelming Oklahoma team in the College Football Playoff race, why Iowa is a decent bet this weekend against Penn State, how the sports betting market still hasn't caught up to Aaron Rodgers, why the 0-4 Jacksonville Jaguars are still in the mix to win the AFC South even with all of Urban Meyer's drama surrounding the team, which side he likes in this weekend's matchup between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Buffalo Bills, and much more! Finally, Jason closes the show with a very special Thursday Night Football Rams-Seahawks edition of the Best Bet.
