Barton and Chip first discuss the difference between fighter pilots and bus drivers at the quarterback position (4:00), then Kenny breaks down the art of creating power ratings and teams he has valued differently than the public (23:00), whether or not to follow reverse line movement (30:00), some of his picks for Week 1 (35:00) and how many points factors like coaching, home field advantage and series history factor into a betting line.
