NASCAR is headed to Phoenix for the championship finale but before that happens, Steve Letarte and the guys react to all the craziness that happened last weekend at Martinsville. Joey Logano, Tyler Reddick, Ryan Blaney and William Byron are racing for a championship, but that doesn’t mean they are the four favorites according to the Professor. His model only has Blaney and Byron in Tier 1. The other drivers at the top are Christopher Bell, Kyle Larson and Denny Hamlin.While Bell isn’t racing for a championship the guys think he is the odds-on favorite to win.Reddick is the lowest driver of the Championship 4 contenders, sitting in Tier 3. Logano sits in Tier 2 but having two weeks to gameplan for this race could help him. However, Tampa Timms has his eyes on Logano and Reddick top-5 bet. The guys then guess what Vegas has for average finishing position for: Harrison Burton, Ricky Stenhouse Jr., Daniel Suarez, Bubba Wallace, and Austin Cindric. The best bet on the board is a two-way bet. Bet Bubba top-10 at +250 and over average finishing position of 14.5.The guys also handicap the champ 4 for Xfinity and trucks. And, last but not least in the Degenerate 4 Pack this week is: Texas team total over 29.5 vs Florida Indiana -6.5 vs Michigan Eagles -6.5 vs Cowboys Lions -3.5 vs Texans For more content head to our YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@DirtyMoDough

Miami: Better Bet on Playoff Drivers to Win
Before moving on to this weekend’s race at Homestead, Steve Letarte and the boys recap how Las Vegas went.

Sitting in Tier 1 of the Professor’s model are Christopher Bell, Kyle Larson, William Byron, and Denny Hamlin (10:12). While Tampa Timms likes Larson, at +350 he is going to avoid that number. On the flipside, Bell is +700 and that is a bet now play.Tampa Timms does have one underdog that he is putting a sprinkle on that shocks everyone (13:10).Alex Bowman top-10 bet has cashed a lot this season, but with three other HMS cars in the Playoffs Tampa Timms doesn’t think this is the week to bet on him (17:00).Byron was plus-money last weekend to beat Larson and he pulled it off (21:00). He is plus-money once again and the guys think it’s worth it to bet that he can beat one guy.The guys normally don’t touch group bets but Producer Travis found one this weekend that is a fade SHR bet (23:25).In the Xfinity race on Saturday, it’s really simple. Bet Cole Custer (29:15).The Degenerate 4 Pack suffered another loss last weekend but the guys are hopeful they can get a win.

Tampa Timms got in early on betting Bell to win and since then the line has been moving.Bubba Wallace isn’t the Playoffs, but the guys like betting him plus-money for a top-10 (18:30). Joey Logano was the benefactor of Alex Bowman’s DQ but the guys aren’t high on him this weekend (21:00). Vegas has him +1500 to win but Steve thinks it should be around +2000.Byron is +150 to beat Larson in a matchup (25:30). While Larson is the favorite, at that number it is worth betting Byron.Jimmie Johnson is racing again this weekend and things haven’t gone great for him when he’s been in the car. Steve explains why (28:00). Tampa Timms’ favorite bet this weekend will be a live bet at the end of stage 2 (31:50).The prop bets this weekend don’t have the guys as excited but margin of victory is one they like (33:00).The Degenerate 4-Pack suffered another loss last weekend thanks to Producer Travis but the guys are hopeful this weekend.
