Week 11 Weekend Dads & Duds + Must-Bet Week 12 Lines w/ C.J. Sullivan | Stephie Smalls Show (Ep 175)
from Sports Gambling Podcast Network · host Sports Gambling Podcast Network
Stephie Smalls is back LIVE with CJ Sullivan for a full-on NFL Week 11 group therapy session — a.k.a. Weekend Dads & Duds — plus a first look at the must-bet Week 12 board.They open by roasting JJ McCarthy and the Vikings offense, wondering how a supposed franchise QB can have zero rushing attempts and a turnover every week while Justin Jefferson visibly loses his mind on the sidelines. From there, they hit Sam Darnold’s four-pick meltdown, the Eagles’ bizarre, scheme-less offense despite being the NFC’s 1-seed, Dan Campbell and Jared Goff trying trick plays in a monsoon, and the Chargers’ offensive line turning Justin Herbert into a tackling dummy.On the “Dad” side, Steph and CJ gush over undrafted RB Sean Tucker’s 140-yard, 3-TD eruption and what it means for Rashad White, Josh Allen’s six-TD nuclear game with randos like Tyrell Shavers stepping up, and Myles Garrett’s absurd Defensive Player of the Year pace. They also unpack Giants receiver disasters (Jalin Hyatt, Isaiah Hodgins), the Ja’Marr Chase vs. Jalen Ramsey spitting drama, Jacoby Brissett’s video-game stat line in the “does this game even exist?” Cardinals matchup, Texans savior Davis Mills and kicker Matthew Wright rescuing survivor pools, and Matthew Stafford’s sneaky MVP-level run.Then they spin it forward into the Week 12 lines, working through the early spreads that feel either “stinky” or exploitable. Steph opens with Jaguars at Cardinals, puzzled why Arizona is only a +2.5 home dog after getting shredded, while CJ still leans Jacksonville now that Liam Coen’s offense finally looks cohesive. From there they hit Falcons at Saints with New Orleans laying -2.5 at home, debating whether fading Kirk Cousins and this unserious Atlanta team is the only sane option, and kick around Patriots at Bengals, where a move out to around Cincy -8.5 feels rich if Ja’Marr Chase is suspended and New England keeps quietly covering. They circle Panthers at 49ers on Monday night, liking a healthy San Francisco offense (Purdy, CMC, Kittle, Pearsall) to punish Carolina in a classic letdown spot after the Panthers’ big divisional win, and they eye the Browns at Raiders total, leaning under in a matchup of elite Cleveland defense vs. two of the league’s ugliest scoring attacks. Down the board, they talk Giants at Lions as a potential Detroit smash if the run game gets rolling, debate whether Seahawks -13 at Titans and Ravens -13.5 vs. Jets are too many points even against anemic offenses, and close on the wild swing in Steelers at Bears, where the line flipped from Pittsburgh -2.5 to Bears -3 just because of Mason Rudolph—prompting CJ to eye Tomlin as a classic road-dog value spot.Finally, Producer Ryan McKee jumps in for Extra Holes, breaking down their brutal 0–5 Circa Million card, joking about scheduling a full gambling exorcism, and pitching some delightfully deranged angles for their Week 12 best bets.0:00 – Show intro, Steph setup0:42 – CJ joins, greetings1:20 – Shower curtain chaos1:45 – LA rain complaints2:10 – Week 11 vibes5:18 – Eagles offense dud6:33 – Lions collapse talk8:00 – Chargers O-line disaster8:48 – Herbert injury spiral9:11 – Flacco meltdown recap9:46 – Chase–Ramsey spit drama10:56 – Spitting trend rant11:43 – Shift into Dads21:15 – Who do we trust?22:12 – Fourth-quarter magic rant23:19 – Season “really begins”23:34 – Camera freak-out moment23:39 – Wrap Dads segment24:31 – Jags–Cards line debate26:07 – Saints–Falcons breakdown32:58 – Giants–Lions blowout talk34:12 – Seahawks–Titans spread38:04 – MNF thoughts, CJ out39:41 – Extra Holes begins39:49 – 0–5 Circa misery40:29 – Gambling exorcism bit Check out CigarBid and use my code SGPN for a great deal: https://cigarbid.com Exclusive SGPN Bonuses And Linkshttp://sg.pn/linksFollow The Sports Gambling Podcast X/Twitter - https://x.com/GamblingPodcastInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/sportsgamblingpodcastTikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@gamblingpodcastFacebook - http://www.facebook.com/sportsgamblingpodcastFollow The Sports Gambling Podcast HostSean Green - http://www.twitter.com/seantgreenRyan Kramer - https://x.com/KramerCentric Gambling problem?

What this episode covers
Steph and CJ break down the strangest and sloppiest moments of NFL Week 11, from Joe Flacco’s inevitable meltdown to the Ja’Marr Chase–Jalen Ramsey spit saga and the league-wide epidemic of teams refusing to play with a lead. They move into Week 12 betting, debating the stinkiest early lines — Jaguars-Cardinals, Saints-Falcons, Giants-Lions, Seahawks-Titans, and more — hunting for value before the market wakes up. Producer Ryan closes the show with Extra Holes, spiraling about their brutal 0–5 Circa card and proposing a full-blown gambling exorcism to break the curse.
