There’s plenty to be Thankful for coming into your Turkey Day, but why not add one more thing to the list before you hit all the Black Friday sales — the Gronkcast with Chris and Glenn Gronkowski? Every week Chris and Glenn deliver their one-of-a kind analysis, hand pick games for your betting and Capper’s Cup requirements and sometimes welcome a special guest or two. It’s all exclusive to GetMoreSports..

Chris opens the show lamenting his hot streak, losing his Bulletproof pick last week, thanks to a missed field goal that kept the Houston Texans from covering the spread in their victory over the Washington Redskins. The loss ended four consecutive correct picks for Chris, so to get back on track he has to be extra careful for Week 12.

Glenn tossed picking against the spread out the window last week and instead went with the Over in the Kansas City Chiefs at Los Angeles Rams game. It was possibly the highest over/under in NFL history at 63.5. The Rams and Chiefs hit the over in the third quarter. Needless to say, Glenn was safe.

“I called that game,” Glenn said. “I said the Rams had a legit defense. They’re ranked around 15 and KC was ranked 31st. I said the defense would make the plays that would win this game and that’s exactly what happened.”

After some ribbing, Glenn delivers his Bulletproof pick of the week and he’s once again going with the Over in a monster game.

“I’m jumping at it again.” Glenn said. “History is going to repeat itself.”

Chris is cranking back up the Bulletproof Tour Bus and driving it northeast. He’s going for a big favorite, but I think he’s probably safe in the pick.

After delivering their selections, Glenn goes into a deep dive on the New Orleans Saints offensive capabilities and where it might lead the team by season’s end. They’re in danger of setting some all-time records.

“Every team, I think slows down,” Chris said. “I always get scared the second time around. The way these games are going, it doesn’t look like the Saints are slowing down any time soon.”

“This offense is something special,” Glenn said. “The players they have out there; Kamara, Michael Thomas, Drew Brees is killing it right now. He’s probably going to be league MVP.”

That leads to a discussion on the rule changes int he NFL that have led to an historic year for scoring in the NFL. They also touch on Lamar Jackson’s record-setting rushing performance for the Baltimore Ravens last week in a victory over the Cincinnati Bengals.

Before the show wraps up, Chris and Glenn toss out their Capper’s Cup picks and deliver their final thoughts on Week 12 to set up your betting slips.
