The Game Within The Game (Episode 81)

Longtime Las Vegas oddsmaker Dave Sharapan joins Brad Howe for a Monday Night Football preview and a look ahead to the early week 3 lines in the NFL.

Which dog provides the best value? What are oddsmakers telling us with the Tampa Bay – LA Rams early line? Can Teddy Bridgewater’s incredible ATS streak continue against the New York Jets this weekend?

Dave also gave advice on how to approach former WVU star Alek Manoah’s upcoming start against the American League-leading Tampa Bay Rays (game scheduled for Tuesday night). Just last week Manoah held the Rays to no runs on just one hit while striking out 10 in a Blue Jays win.

All of that and more in the latest The Game Within The Game presented by DraftKings.
