Rams beat the Jags 35-7. Stafford threw five touchdown passes.
Travis Hunter gets his first 100-yard career receiving game, and he also had his first touchdown. What's your way to do it?
I don't know what they're doing. I don't know what happened today.
How many snaps did he play on defense? Two, three?
I know he broke up a pass from Devontae.
Matthew Stafford, 21 of 33, 182, five touchdowns, no sacks, no turnover. They ran the ball 29 times for 89 yards.
Devontae,
excuse me, five for 35 and three tubs. Ferguson had one for 31 and a tub.
Mumfield had one catch, five yards, and a tub.
Trevor Lawrence was 23 of 48, 236, one touchdown. He was sacked
17. Golly.
Landman had one and a half.
Is Is that Carnell Lake's son? Q Lake. Wait, from the Steelers?
Yes.
He said, listen, Chad,
correct him. He said it's Booty.
So correct him.
So y'all talk about, oh, it's wrong. It's Boute.
I know that's how it looks like it should be pronounced, Boute. But that's not what he told the media.
So go look up what he told me. Google that.
Y'all Google everything else.
Y'all jump on here to try to prove Ocho and I wrong. Go look it up.
And then you can come back and apologize to us later. Listen, I
it looks like it's it looks like it's French to me, right? I took I took yes Creole. So I'm gonna pronounce it as as if it's French.
I'm gonna call him
go look at chat. Go look it up.
And all of y'all there's somebody that's pronounced this, pronounced that, then you can apologize to Ocho now. Because y'all quick.
Y'all don't never want to get old. Well, you and Ocho were right.
Y'all don't never do that, but y'all quick to jump in here. Y'all wrong.
Y'all wrong. Go, go to, and this is what he said.
Now, y'all will get mad at the man because that's what he said the pronunciation is. Go ask him.
But anyway, back to our normal schedule program, Ocho.
35 to 7.
It looks like to me
that their Super Bowl were the Chiefs on Monday night. Because they've looked like Stir Fry since.
What are they doing with Trash?
I'm curious because everything seems to be up and down. One week he's playing more on defense and he's playing less on offense.
One week he's playing more on offense.
The next week, he's playing less on defense.
It's like they're kind of confused on what they want to do with him.
I need my boy, Brian Thomas Jr. I know you're going to see this.
Baby, I need you. I need you every week.
You got to come out with old.
You got to come out with me. I need you, Joe.
B, B, I need you every week, every week to be exactly who we know you are.
You need to build off what you did last year and come in the season and do the same thing. When things aren't going well, Trevor Lawrence has to be able to count on you at all times.
He needs to be able to put on a blindfold and know I can throw the seven. And I know I can count him.
You need to be like birth control.
You need to be like birth control.
Every time
you can count on you 99.9 of the time at times you're gonna make mistakes mistakes gonna happen drops are gonna happen minimize them minimize them you know but the player that you are the player that i know you're capable of being you got to be that 247
No, no, no, no. Don't be talking about, oh, Uncle Aggressive.
No, y'all jumped y'all ass in the chat. Oh, you said it wrong.
You said it wrong. No, go look it up.
Now y'all looking it up.
Now you, oh, uncle aggressive. Y'all jump y'all ass on there.
Cause y'all so quick. Oh, uncle don't know what he's talking about.
I'm just telling what the guy, how he's, how he told the reporters I said.
I don't, I don't like saying boute. I'm going to say boutique I'm going to say it like a French.
So, but they, y'all get mad. No, I want y'all to jump in there and say, oh, you was right.
Y'all quick to blow up my Twitter, blow up all my feeds on social media.
You was wrong. Why would I write? Y'all don't have the same intensity.
I'm just curious.
Hey, they apologize. They say, we sorry.
That's what he said, oh y'all. Now, if I, some people say, okay,
sometimes it's sharp. It has an E.
Sometimes it doesn't. Some people say, is it sharp or is it sharpie? It's sharp.
Oh, I thought it was sharpie. Well, I told you it was sharp.
So he said it's booty.
But y'all get mad at me because I thought because it's spelled, because when I first saw him at LSU, Ocho, I thought it boutique.
That's what I mean.
But I knew, you know, with a name like that, I'm like, that's a French, you know, obviously the French, you know. We got New Orleans from the French, you know.
But anyway,
what's going on with Jacksonville, Ocho?
First of all, Ash, how many snaps did Trell play on defense?
Because
he didn't register anything. He had a pass defense, though.
He had a pass, a PD.
Yeah. Joe, if you're not going to play in both ways and he's not going to be beneficial in both weeks, why did you trade up to get it?
Hey, listen. Why'd you give up? You gave up next year's number one.
Your guess is to move up like two or three spots. That's crazy.
Listen, if you take someone that high, if you take someone high, he's going to be full-time somewhere.
And if you're going to play him on both sides like you promised, like you promised him, I'm going to use him
to where we picked him as a number two pick. I'm going to feature him somewhere.
Offensively,
you're going to be on offense full-time. You know what? We're going to have certain packages probably on third down.
We're going to put you in there. You're going to go against the third receiver.
Sometime the second. Whoever the hell go in the goddamn slot, that's who you have to face.
I'm not sure what they're doing. I have no idea.
I'm confused.
He played 14 snaps on defense. He played 60 plus snaps on offense.
Yeah.
So that's 74 snaps. They had 55 snaps total on defense.
I just don't see him playing
130 snaps and being effective. I don't, not in an NFL game.
I mean, listening out and see all the DBs. I see Chris Harris Jr.
I see Akeem Dhalib. I see Sherm.
I see guys that made Pro Bowls, all decade players. I see those guys.
And they're talking about, man, it's hard to go back because you need to get in a rhythm defensively the back pedal the switch the transition oh cho you're not like you're playing one good receiver one week and then you might play some guys that's not very good every guy that you go against on sunday in the nfl a lot of guys that you went against in on saturday they not in the nfl
there's a difference big time
you're going against jefferson you're going against chase you're going against cd you going against pickens you're going against rashid rice you're going up against Devontae, you're going against AJ, you're going against Pittman, you're going against Johnson, you're going against Keenan Allen,
and then guess what? Now go beat Pastor Tan, not go beat Ahorn Jr., not go beat Stingly,
not go beat Quentin
Mitchell.
Do you understand what
you're asking yourself?
And you understand how just how mentally you have to be locked in? Oh, Joe, you know, first of all, you got to be locked in. But when you go on against one of them dogs, you better be on your best.
And the funny thing about it, or they'll embarrass you and they're trying to.
And most of the time, every week, it's going to be a dog on every team.
Every team. Very soft and when you play a game, regardless of what position you play, whether it's receiver, you're going to be facing the dog.
If you're playing receiver, you're going to be facing the dog at DB.
No matter what side of the ball you go to. So you got to be on point, but they're not using them to be effective, let alone not help him, but help the team.
Got to help him.
He's the second pick in the draft. You would think his usage would show just that, and it hasn't.
It hasn't to date, not yet.
And I understand.
What are you thinking?
I mean, I don't know if this year they're going to fully integrate him and let him play every snap, every down.
Yeah,
I understand bringing a player along slow, but hell,
we going into week seven. Well, we're going into week eight.
Shoot, we had, we halfway through the season.
Listen,
brother Liam Colem,
he knows better than me.
He got a great offensive mind because he was on the staff. Offensive, that's where his butt is breaded.
That's where his bread is buttered. Got me talking like Ocho.
I've been around you too long, man.
I D help.
Ocho, the Bears moved to 4-2. Saints dropped a 1-6.
The Bears 26. Saints, 14.
What a matchup we got, y'all. This is that classic HBCU vibe.
Non-stop action, the band is rocking, and the crowd lick, chants echoing, drum beating, everybody showing that school pride.
Game like this, yeah, it calls for an ice-cold Coca-Cola.
Ah, crisp and refreshing. That's a game changer right there.
Mmm, yeah. That taste always hits the right note, just like the band at halftime.
And just like that, we're back at it. Passionate fans, school colors everywhere, and an ice-cold Coca-Cola? That's a winning combo.
No matter the sport, no matter the yard, everybody knows.
Fan work is thirsty work. So grab a Coca-Cola and keep that HBCU pride going.

This is Sophie Cunningham from Show Me Something. Do you know the symptoms of moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea or OSA in adults with obesity?
They may be happening to you without you knowing.
If anyone has ever said you snored loudly or if you spend your days fighting off excessive tiredness, irritability, and concentration issues, it may be due to OSA.
OSA is a serious condition where your airway partially or completely collapses during sleep, which may cause breathing interruptions and oxygen deprivation. Learn more at don'tsleep on osa.com.
This information is provided by Lilly, a medicine company. Caleb Williams, 15 of 26, 172 yards, no touchdowns.
What an exception.
But DeAndre Swift, 19 carries, a buck 24, 40 rushes, 222 yards.
Spencer Rattler, 20 of 32, 233, two touchdowns, three picks. Can't turn the ball over like that, bro, and win.
Your team is not equipped to overcome your mistakes.
Rushes, 17 carries, 44 yards for the Saints
offense. Spencer Rattler also lost a fumble, so that was four turnovers.
That'll beat you.
Saints ain't that good to overcome four turns. That'll get you.
Chris Olave had one of his better games. Five catches, 98 yards, a touchdown.
Johnson, four five for 79. Damn.
Shaheed, I needed one more catch.
What did you like about what you did? See any this thing? Yeah, I saw it, man. DeAndre Swift is running the hell out of the ball.
Again, with DeAndre Schiff running like that,
it brings balance. It brings balance.
Boom.
We can rely on DeAndre Schwift to do what we need to do offensively on the ground. So it makes throwing the ball that much easier.
I know Caleb Williams did have an interception, but outside of that, he played somewhat of a clean game outside of interception. And they did what they needed to do to win the game.
They're 4-2.
I'm not sure when the last time the Bears have been 4-2 and looked this good offensively. Week, week.
Hell, they played in the goddamn rainstorm last week, won the game. They come back this week.
I know they're playing the Saints. A lot of people say, oh, that don't count.
You're playing the Saints. They're not that good.
I told y'all. I told you.
Two teams.
That maturation process between Caleb Williams and goddamn Ben Johnson, where he's going to be able to maximize his potential, understanding what his quarterback strengths are with his creativity.
All right.
It's just starting.
Yeah.
And Rattler had three interceptions. I see Trey
Edmonds had one. He's a linebacker.
And Monte Sweat, he had one. He's a DN.
No, hold on. That's sacks.
Who got the picks?
They don't show picks. Oh, yeah, they do.
oh by yard had one edmonds had one and nick wright i in right i don't know if it's that's his first name he had one
they just oh yo the saints are not good enough to overcome four turnovers there are not very many teams equipped in the nfl that could overcome four turnovers
let alone the saints yeah but you got maybe two or three teams that's it
maybe two or three
it all depends on when they turn the ball over and where they turn it over if they can score in a high volume they can score in a high volume
let me ask you a question. Who they playing and they turn the ball over? Now that matters too.
That matters as well.
You turn the ball over against the Cowboys. You turn the ball over against the Chiefs.
Man,
you might well pack your bags early. Turn the ball over four times against the Coach.
Pack your bags early.
Exactly. The Patriots.
Beat the Titans in the revenge bowl.
Drake May threw for 222 yards, two touchdowns. Vraba's first game against the franchise that fired him back in January of 2024.
They did a number. They did a number on him today.
Cam Ward fumbled for the second consecutive game. He has five fumbles this season, and he threw a pick.
I love Brother Cam Ward, but the same issues that we had and the same conversations we had with Will Levis and turning the ball over and not giving his team a chance, Cam Ward is.
Actually, Cam Ward is worse.
If you go look at the number through the same starts, he's worse than Will Levis. Yeah.
You got to give your team a chance.
And Ocho, you and I talked about it, bro, bro. You can't keep turning the ball over.
You can't keep giving up these pick sixes.
You can't keep putting the ball in harm's way because I don't care how good your defense is. They can't consistently overcome bad play from you.
You can't.
Can't.
You don't.
This is why I advise guys, stop talking.
Now, we tell,
y'all know what he said. We butt.
Hey. Hey, but listen,
like too, huh?
When you say stuff like that, your play has to be up to par.
You can't be part of the problem. You got to be part of the solution.
Through six games, their first six games of their career, Cam Ward has thrown for 1,101 yards. Will Levis had 1,266.
Cam Ward has thrown three touchdowns. Will Levis had seven.
Cam Ward had thrown four interceptions.
What a matchup we got, y'all. This is that classic HBCU vibe.

This information is provided by Lilly, a medicine company. Will Levis, two.
Fumbles lost, Cam Ward, four.
Will Levis, two.
Sacks,
Cam Ward, 25.
Will Levis, 19. He got sacked 25 times already?
Oh, heading into that. God damn.
It's more now. How many times have you got?
Oh, now he's gotten sacked 30 times. He got sacked five times today.
Jesus Christ.
so we can add a touchdown to him he got four touchdowns five interceptions and he got now he got
uh another fumble loss well listen hey whoever got the titans on their schedule that's like a homecoming game
that that's the game that's the game you want to play with you know you're gonna get your win hey the titans and the jets if you got the titans and the jets on your schedule might well chalk that up as a win Yep.
Hey, they're talking about, hey, don't worry about Ward. He with us.
Hey, listen, listen,
you're going to have game. Nah, nah, nah, y'all didn't want Mike Brable.
It wasn't Mike.
They fired Mike Brable.
It's his rookie year. It's his rookie year.
Do we give him some grace because he's a rookie?
Okay. Okay.
But stop talking.
Stop talking. Because you make yourself look bad when you go out there and play like that.
If you do that.
They made the Patriots.
Well, Drake me. Hey, Drake me, nice, bro.
Yeah.
Drake me, nice.
Ocho, 21 of 33, 21 of 23 is the highest completion percentage in Patriots history.
21, I think he completed 16 straight, 222 yards, two touchdowns. He did get sacked four times, but he didn't turn turn the ball over.
Stephon Diggs, seven for 69. Keyshawn, is it Boute or Booty?
I'm not sure how to pronounce it the right way.
I got the wrong battle here.
But he had two for 55. He had a great fingertip catching end zone, Ocho.
Hunter Henry, four for 33.
Austin Hooper, two for 11.
A tub.
And
Chase on
recovered a fumble in the end zone. The one that Cam Ward tried to throw it.
It slipped out the back of his hand.
It's Booty. Booty.
See, y'all laughing.
It looked like it should be Boutay, but it's Booty. Sure.
Booty, yeah.
Booty.
And he must be from New Orleans, huh?
He is.
He is.
Rama J. Stevens, they ran the ball 36 times, 175.
You know, Fraybon wants to run the football.
You know, he had that monster in Tennessee, Derrick Henry.
You know what I'm saying? You know, you want to run that football. You know what I like to?
I like the fact that they went back to Stevenson despite his struggles, holding on to the ball.
Yeah.
You want to play something?
Yeah, coach, I do. Hold on to the damn ball.
Simple as that.
You hold on to the ball, you get on the field. You put the ball on the turf, you over here with me.
Choice is yours.
The Browns beat the dogs. Oh, man.
31 to 6. Mike McDaniel, bitch Tua, late for Quinn Ewers.
He was 12 of 23. 100 yards, zero touchdowns, three interceptions, 24, he had a 24 passer rating.
Tour has the most two interception games in the NFL since 2022.
Ocho, this is what
happened. This is why I tell you, quarterbacks, keep your mouth shut.
Now, we're going to have a conversation about your guy in Tennessee.
Now, you remember your guy in Tennessee, we, that's why you keep your mouth shut. Yes, sir.
Now, back to Tua. Ocho.
Hold on, hold on, hold on.
I i would hear what you said that's your team the miami guppies are your team
listen to to it when you when you
when you stand tall with your head high
and you hold other people accountable and tell us about things that are going on in your house a house where we don't have the key to so it's no way for us to know what's going on
And that sea on your chest, as that captain, you have to always be front and center and being the one to be playing at your best.
You got to be playing at your very best at all times. So what you're saying in front of the media and you play, it ain't matching up.
It ain't matching up. You can't be talking here, but playing down here at the bottom.
There has to be some some type of even keel where everything makes sense. Okay, you know what?
He can get in front of the media and say some of the things that are going on behind closed doors because once he touched that goddamn field, he's that boy. he's doing his thing.
But when you play like that, and on the opposite end, trying to do that,
it ain't
pretty. I was upset.
I was upset watching. I was upset watching the game.
We don't even have a chance.
We don't even have a chance to compete, let alone you're already going against one of the better defenses in the league. So, offensively, you've got to do that much better.
You have to raise your level of play. Tyreek is gone.
He's not walking back through that dope.
He's not walking back through that door.
And it wasn't like Cleveland did a whole lot. It was just that you were so pathetic.
Your
Miami offense was so anemic, they didn't really have to do anything because you gave them short fields. You gave up a pick six.
This is what you do.
Bill Davis used to always tell us my college coach: say, son, you praise in public. You chastise behind closed doors.
See, I didn't forget. Hey, listen,
I got it with you today. I'm prepared.
Prepared. Yeah.
He said,
you chastise behind closed doors. You praise in public.
Ocho, we played a game. We played Alabama AM.
And
Coach called
a quarterback draw on the first two plays. He called a handoff.
Quarterback checked out of it. And then on fourth down, he called a draw at the game.
We lined up. We lose the game.
We're all around the team. Coach says, I've been coaching 20 years and I've never said this before.
You cost me the game. Damn.
Just like that.
He got there in front of the media. You know, we just got to play better.
Look, the plays that we didn't make tonight at the quarterback position, I trust him. I believe in him.
That is not what he said behind closed doors.
That's not what he said.
But in public, he knew he had to put on a brave face. He had to put on a brave front.
I'm not saying to what you said, you should have said behind closed doors to your teammates and keep the media out of it.
See, you can't spin it because, see, when you say when the media does this, you absolve yourself of accountability. You see, instead of saying, you look, look, I misspoke.
Everything that I said, I could have said to an individual or individuals that I felt that were late or not being the best representative of the Miami Dolphins.
That should have never heard that the media ears should have never heard what I had to say.
But when he spent it and say the media try to spin it now he's absolving himself of accountability i thought you were saying that you were sorry because you was taking the onus of accountability
but that's not what he did and they now think about it ocho he said that after throwing three picks he follows that up again with another three picks yeah yeah and let's remember what i said so How do I look at you?
How do I look at you? If I'm a player, Ocho,
you got to see on your jersey.
you're supposed to be one of our best players and a large part to why we're ineffective out visibly is because of your play i i i told you i'm chat i'm not sure chat if any of you have been in a structured environment and played a sport and and you look up to one individual the individual who wears the sea on the chest not only does he wear the sea on the chest but he's a leader
He not only is a leader, but
he's your quarterback. He's your quarterback.
So you say some of the things that are going in-house about players that are in a building.
How do you think they look at you next? How do you think they look at y'all?
And you know, you know how they're going to look at you. They won't say it out loud publicly, but you know, different.
Yes.
They always look at you sideways now from now on, even with a public apology. And the top it off, the top it off, it makes it even worse when you come back the following week and you play like that.
And you stunk it up again. You pull your pants down two weeks in a row in front of the public and took a dump on the field.
Now, first of all, Ocho, I'm looking at you sideways because even before you opened your mouth, I knew you weren't playing well.
And I kept that to myself. Now, I could have put you on blast or when somebody say tour was buns or cheeks, I could have liked it, but I didn't do none of that.
No, no, no, no.
But what did you do? You come put us on blast. And
you got to the meeting on time. You did everything right.
And you look like Sturfry out there. So what was your excuse? Hey, sometimes you can do all the talking in the world.
You can do all the talking in the world. All the talking in the world don't matter.
But what does matter, I know you want to do everything right before you go, before,
before you touch this field on Sundays. But all that talking and all that mean don't mean nothing.
If you go out there and you stink it up Sunday at one o'clock, you still got to play.
You still got to execute
the exes and O's. And the person that has the ball the most, the person that is able to handle the ball the most,
is responsible most of the time whether you win or whether you lose.
Yes. Tour now has two or more interception games.
He has the most
two-plus interception games in the NFL since 2022. He's done that 12 times.
It's hard to over.
It's hard to overcome bad quarterback play. Because you know why, Ocho? You know why, chat? Because he has the ball all the damn time.
Unless you direct snap it to a running back or a wide receiver, which is the Wildcat, he touches the ball. If he's playing bad,
he gets hit, the ball comes out. He throws it, it gets picked.
He runs.
I always question Ocho. The man knows he has a history of concussions.
He breaks weight last year. What does he do, Ocho? He lowers his head on somebody.
I say, you got to be kidding
Oh, Joe, the Eagles beat the Vikings. The 30th ranked passing offense coming into the game found his stride.
Jalen Hurts threw three touchdown passes.
Devontae Smith had a career high, 183 receiving yards and a touchdown. A.J.
Brown went over 100 yards and had a pair of touchdowns. And Jalen Hurts, 304 yards.
The receivers were the second most of his career. I think it's his first 300-yard game in the last 22 games.
So Jalen Hurts, he was 19 of 23.
Very efficient. 326, three touchdowns.
Devontae, nine for a buck 83 and a touchdown. AJ Brown, four for 121, two touchdowns.
This is what you have to do when you can't run the football. 23 rush attempts, 45 yards.
Saquon, 18 carries, 44 yards. You got no choice.
Hey, it's so funny, too, is Devontae Smith was going crazy.
He was going crazy. And I can see the mannerisms.
I can see the body language from AJ Brown. He wasn't going off yet.
He hadn't gotten those touchdowns yet.
Well, you know, he caught the first touchdown.
The scramble. They
caught him on the run.
It looked like I think it was a linebacker.
He told him to go.
It was a scramble drill. It wasn't out.
It was a scramble drill.
But outside of that,
he got involved in the game. He got involved in the game.
Came back and hit him on a deep one.
Before you go any further,
that was not a rough in the passer on Martin, the Washington Commanders guy, when he sacked Dak Presque. It's not my fault.
He didn't buckle his damn helmet.
And I tackled his ass and his helmet flew off his head. That is not...
Now, look, it seemed like it was
incidental contact with the receiver, so it was a five-yard penalty. That's not rough in the passer.
That is not rough in the passer. It's not my fault, Ocho.
If you don't buckle your damn helmet, I tackle you. Your helmet fell off.
I didn't rough you up. He's he didn't horse collar.
He had him by the middle of his jersey and he snatched his ass down.
And you're obviously the reference. So that's all I want to say about that.
I want to talk about the refs. You know, the refs, when everything is going full speed, they can't tell.
They can't see that. All they see is the hand up high and the helmet coming off.
And you know, they're throwing that flag right away. They're throwing a flag right away.
Outside, yeah. Ocho,
they can review it.
I mean, because think about it. When Jerry Goff,
when they called that touchdown back, they didn't throw the flag on the field. That came from Socco.
Okay, yeah.
Oh, you're right.
You're right.
You're right.
I like what Jalen Hurst did. I like what he did.
Because obviously, listen, you quiet the doubters again. You couldn't run the ball.
They say he can't throw.
He can't put it in the air. And what did he go out there and do?
he put it in the air you're not gonna allow us to run the ball like the chiefs did in the super bowl okay hold my beard let me show you i can do everything i could throw it too yep now what you're gonna do
uh carson went was 26 of 42 313 two interception
uh jordan addison had nine for a buck 28. george justin jefferson had five for 79.
uh he did drop a touchdown um you know what you call it was able to get his hand in there uh
Dejean, Dejean. Cooper Dejean.
Cooper did a good job, right? Yeah.
But here's the thing, though. He's finding out it's different on the island than it is on the other side.
Absolutely.
I'm just saying. Absolutely.
Especially when you're going against one of the best, if not the best, depending on who you ask, it's a different.
I don't. Oh, Joe.
What do you think about that touchdown? They, at McField, they called it a touchdown, the diving TJ Hawkinson, but they reviewed it and they said, no, what?
What do you think was a touchdown, huh? I think it was a touchdown
because the ball didn't move when he hit the ground. It didn't move.
And all he did was bring it back in.
He brought it back in on the turn. You know,
it is tough.
They're saying the ground helped him secure it. Come on.
The ball didn't move when he hit the ground. It didn't move at all.
It didn't. And all he did was he brought it back into his chest as he rolled over.
To me, that's a touchdown.
They're so inconsistent with that call. I don't know what a touchdown or a catch is in the goddamn mode.
I don't know.
I agree.
I agree with you 100%. Because, like I said, what I thought was a catch, you know,
sometimes they let it is like his hands under, like, bro, he caught that. He caught it.
But give the Eagles credit today because Jalen Hurts won them this game with his arm.
19 of 23, 326, three touchdowns. He was sacked three times, but he says, you know what? I'm not going to put the ball in harm's way.
And he doesn't.
But this is what it's going to take for them to get back to where they want to be.
This has to be a regular, this has to be a normal occurrence. This can't be an outlier.
This can't be an anomaly. They're not going to let Saquon run it.
You're not going to win the game.
But that doesn't mean you don't attempt to, Ocho. I'm not going to just abandon
and have him throw the ball. Because think about Ocho.
He threw the ball 23 times. He didn't throw it 33, 43.
I still got to make you respect Saquon. And if I get one-on-one coverage, AJ Devontae, be ready.
Yeah, I saw him do that today, too. I like that.
And the replay was able to see it.
He saw one-on-one with AJ Brown. And he threw it real slowly.
I don't know what that means right there. It was that skinny post.
He saw man to man. Yeah.
Skinny post.
He hit him on that skinny post for that touchdown. Boom.
I like that. That's going off script.
That's going off script. No matter what play is called, AJ Brown, keep your eyes on me.
If I see something, I'm going to throw you a number and let you know what it do.
The camera called AJ after
scoring his second touchdown today.
This when you throw me the effing ball, what the F is that? Just throw me the effing ball.
After the game, Devontae Smith said the play that resulted in a 79-yard touchdown was there for them all game. He said he and his teammates said, advocated for it at halftime.
After they scored, Jordan Maielotta went to him and said, you call your shot. I like it.
They do.
But here's the thing, Ojo.
You and I play a dependent position.
John used to tell me, now, hey, look, I'm going to take your word for it. You was open.
I'm going to look. I'm going to come on.
Now, if I go back and look at film, And your ass wasn't open.
Hey, that's why you got to be careful. You got to be careful as a receiver, saying you're open and really not knowing what's around you.
You got to be sure and you got to be definite. It's what it is.
Because if I come, if we come back to that play and
you were open in the first quarter, and we come back and run it, maybe through, maybe in a different formation, and hoping we get the same look defensively, boy, you
don't lie to me. Hey,
because I did that while I was in the game, I said, Man, John, bro, he was open.
He's like, T, you weren't open. I said, I was open.
You know, I ain't got it.
He said, I tell you what, I'm gonna look at it tomorrow.
If you're not open,
it's gonna be hard pressed for you to get you the passes.
About two series later, I came to him. I said, Hey, T, you know that play you was talking about? We were talking about.
I wasn't open
since you put it like that. You ain't gonna give me no passes.
I wasn't open.
But that's the thing. If you tell the quarterback, because they're going to trust you,
I'm open, okay?
You say this. Hey, Coach, Devontae said he's open.
Ocho said he's open.
Okay.
You better be open. But I thought Jalen Hurts played unbelievable football today.
I thought he was decisive with his throws. We got outside the pocket.
He was accurate with his throws.
AJ, four for
121 and two touchdowns.
Hey, Devontae, nine for
a buck 83 and a touchdown, a long of 71, a long of 79 on 11 targets. But think about it, 23, over 300 yards on 23 attempts.
That's not a lot of attempts.
That's how efficient he is. That's called throwing the ball with efficiency.
With efficiency, making all the right throws.
And then when things break down in the pocket, pocket, I'm not, you know, I'm not going to take off and run with the ball. I'm not going to take off and run with the ball.
No,
he's looking, he's looking for guys to break. He's looking to run the scramble drawer.
He's running people out, pointing direction, which way to go and coming back. A.J.
Brown had a good one
when the plate broke down to the right, hit A.J. Brown on, it was third and 14.
Oh, man. And then
dealing. And this is the good thing because now things change.
Most of the time, the way they play and
the way they won last year is Saquon Barkley had a historic season running the ball. And most of the time for the Eagles, they would run the ball to open up the pass.
Well, hell, they're not allowing the Eagles and Saquon to run the ball the way they did last year.
So maybe now what's going to happen? Maybe things are going, they're going to win playing in reverse. We're going to have to throw the ball to open up the goddamn run.
Absolutely right.
Because they still add, okay, he did, because I'm going to tell you what defense coordinator said. He did that last week.
Let's see if he could do it again.
Because I saw Saquon do what he did last year for the entirety of the season. Saquon has a history.
I'm going to make him do it again. Oh, Joe, the Packers went on the road and they win in Arizona, but it wasn't easy by the score of 27 to 23.
Do you see how they looked in the first three and a half quarters, Ocho?
Jordan Love was 19 to 29, 179, one touchdown. Josh Jacobs, 13 carries, 55 yards,
two touchdowns. They win it.
This is why you go get a Micah Parsons. If I'm going to make you the highest paid defensive player in NFL history, the highest non-quarterback, you know what you got to do?
When you were that guy, when you a Miles Garrett, when you are a Micah Parsons, when you are a TJ Watt, I need you to turn the lights out of the building.
The first quarter, I don't care. Now I need to keep them.
I need you to keep them out of the end zone. Did you see the relentlessness? You see how quick he beat that right tackle? Wow.
He wasn't worried about no holding either.
Don't worry about who holding.
Don't worry about who holding. No, I pay you for, as a matter of fact, I pay you 47 million.
Run through the hole.
That's why you got money.
He's that good. Micah's that good.
That first step, his ability, he can turn speed to power. He can bend.
He can wax on. He can rip.
He can play over the guard. He can play.
I mean, he can move up and down the line. He's too good of a player.
This is why you go pay Micah Parsons.
This is why you give up Kenny Clark in two first rounders for what you saw today.
This is what he should be because you got Rashawn Gary on the other side.
You got Wyatt.
There's no reason.
He really that dude.
Sometimes I wonder if Micah really understands,
I don't think he does. I don't think, and you know what? That's a good thing.
It's a good thing that he doesn't understand how good he is, and he's just out there just playing football.
He's just out there just playing football with no inclination in how good you really are.
He had no sacks. He had one sack.
Excuse me. He had one sack coming to the game, if I'm not mistaken.
He had three today. And you already know how the game goes.
You go week after they come in bunches. Remember, I told you,
they're like grapes and bananas. They come in bunches.
You got three today. Now, probably watch next week.
You have another three. And then you look up before you get to halfway through the season.
You're damn near close to 10. Out the blue.
Out of nowhere.
Because the thing is, you got Rashawn Gary on the other side. He can rush the pass.
And you got Wyatt pushing the middle.
Bro, y'all, hey.
Meet me at the quarterback. Ready? Brick.
Oh, yeah.
That's what I'm saying. Meet me at the quarterback.
Hey, we playing sorry, DBs. Hey, Rod, Ed, meet me in the end zone.
What we do? Hey, what we doing today? We mile high salute. Meet me in the end zone.
I was like, damn, Packers. But Jacoby Brissette played well.
25 or 36, 279, two touchdowns.
Yeah, he didn't hurt him. Trey McBride had 10 catches, 74 yards, two touchdowns.
Marvin Harrison had two catches, 56 yards,
35 long.
But in the end, that pass rush was just too much.
They were just relentless.
What's wrong with you? Think about it. Look at that.
Quay Walker, a sack and a half.
Micah had three sacks. Rashawn Gary had a sack.
They sacked the quarterback six times.
That's how it should be. You got two best, two, two good young pass rushes in Micah and Rashawn Gary.
You got Walker who can rush the pass, you got Wyatt who can put pressure on the quarterback. There ain't no reason, yeah.
And then you quarterback should have time to stand back there and pat that ball like that.
The funny, the good thing about it is, you want you didn't have to deal with Kylie Murray, who's a two-third quarterback. You're dealing with Jacoby Prissette, who's a statue.
He ain't going nowhere.
He ain't going nowhere.
He ain't going nowhere. And you get the ball and get the ball out of your hands fast as possible.
But when it mattered most,
them sacks came in, especially, especially Michael, towards the end of the game.
But see, that's what I need. I need you to turn the lights out of the building.
Somebody got to cut the lights off.
What good? Ocho, what good is we? Oh, we got a guy that got 20 sacks, but then we allowed him to go right down the field and get a touchdown. What good are the 20 sacks doing me?
I don't care. And this is how I look at offense and defense.
And you can chat, you can call me crazy. Can you get done what you need to get done when you absolutely have to?
Oh, Joe, what good is having a number one ranked offense? I can't get a first down so the opposing team don't get the ball back.
What good is having a number one defense if I can't get off the field on third down? I can't keep them from getting in field goal rank. But what did I do?
I need it to matter.
I got money, but I can't get nothing out of ATM.
Well, it'll do me no good.
The Panthers beat the Jets 13-6.
Rico Dowdell. Rico Dowdell still appeared to be more dominant back.
He had 79 yards rushing on 17 carries compared to Hubbard's 31 yards on 14 carries.
We missed that, didn't we?
He was one of our
prize picks.
I told you. I told you.
You ain't listening to me. But see, I thought, but see, I was thinking.
He thought it was coming back. I told you.
Don't worry about that. Man,
Dalto got the goddamn, he got the hot hand. Always bet with your hot hand.
Yeah, 96 yards. He was supposed to get 79.
How many did he get?
96. You got to listen to me sometime.
I know. But I got Taquan, though.
Taekwondo get seven yards. He caught one deep one.
Hey.
Justin Fields was benched at halftime in favor of longtime backup, Tyrod Taylor. Jets signed Fields to a two-year, $40 million deal, including
$30 million guaranteed. They only needed six and a half games to realize it's not looking good.
Don't look like he'd asked.
He was six of 12, 46 yards. My thing is, look,
it doesn't seem like he processes it.
As fast as it should. And if the quarterback, Ocho, it's got to be like that.
It kind of made me sad a little bit because i understand what justin fields has had to go through so far early in his career he had to deal with issues over in chicago where they felt he wasn't the answer and we've always had the conversations about quarterbacks that have gone through chicago and weren't developed the right way didn't have they didn't have the the right tools around them to help them develop and every quarterback has always seemed to
not really flourish there. And now he goes to Pittsburgh and you think maybe I'll get an opportunity to compete for the starting job.
He wins the starting job due to injury, played well when Russell Wilson was hurt. And obviously, he gets benched when Russell Wilson comes back.
So I'm thinking, okay, boom. Now this is your team.
You have nobody to worry about, nobody looking over shoulder. This is just your team with a job for you to lose.
And I thought he would be the answer for the foreseeable future. And so far, how it's turned out,
things just haven't worked out. They just haven't.
You haven't.
And at some point in time we can't can't keep blaming everybody else ojo
we can't
i i was a little concerned when he couldn't beat out jake from for the starting job at georgia i was like well damn
damn he liked jake from no hellraiser
you know i'm saying i i okay Okay,
Joe Burrow. Okay, Trevor Lawrence.
Okay, you don't beat them. I ain't got no problem with that.
Okay, you can't beat out
Jones
that was at Alabama. Okay, I get that.
But Jake From?
Like I said, whatever it is, it's not, I don't know.
And I think they're going to stick with Tyrod. Now, I know Tyrod, it was at a bad spot.
Tyrod had to come in. And, you know, they know you're going to throw the ball.
You can't run it.
Brees Hall
tweeted something last week, made it seem like you know, free Brees or something like that. I don't know what's going on there,
but Justin Fields has got to do a better job, he's got to see the field better, he's got to process it sooner.
Um, and or he can't play, you can't play quarterback if you don't have if you if you can't process the information on your business. And you got to process it fast.
You got to be, you got to be able to recall, you got to be able to recall it and spit it out. And when you see it, you've got to boom, it's got to go.
Yeah, I mean,
it is what it is to play that position.
Damn, man.
That sucks. That sucks.
But on the other hand, on the other hand,
let's talk about my Panthers. Yes.
I'm saying.
Bryce Young, 15 of 25, 138, one touchdown. He did leave the game.
Andy Dalton came in. Four for 70, four of seven for 60 yards.
Both players were sacked. Bryce Young was sacked once.
Andy Dalton was sacked once.
But
Laguette had his best game nine for 92 for 100 yards and you remember ocho he caught the that one that sealed it yeah
hey i i told y'all hey chat chat don't try to jump on the bandwagon now don't try to jump on the bandwagon now your two teams bears and the uh the the uh uh before the season started i told you they're gonna be two teams that y'all need to watch They're going to be two teams that y'all need to watch.
I said it was a Chicago Bears because they got Ben Johnson.
Ben Johnson and Caleb Williams, it was going to be a beautiful marriage. Right now, I think the Bears sit four and two, if I'm not mistaken.
Now, the Carolina Panthers, nobody believed in us, but I believed in us.
I talked about Bryce Young, brother Hunter Winfro, Brother Jimmy Horn, Executive Leggett going into his second year, eating raccoons and do whatever he do.
One of his best games is a 9 for 92 in a TD, a TD to seal the game. I'm telling you, JC Horn, boy, I see you.
I see you.
Hey, one of the better corners in the league, especially when it comes to man-to-man. I see you.
Huh? Don't think I'm not going to go change that Madden Braden. I see you.
I know
Brother Cannellis got to be smiling from Idio, man.
Carolina's defense sacked the Jets quarterback six times for 33 yards and losses.
Carolina, four and three. Hey.
They're in second place. They're tied for second place when I think Atlanta, Well, they might be in front of LLI.
Obviously, Tampa's in first place. We'll see what happens with Tampa tomorrow as they play Tampa.
That's going to be a good game. But Carolina, 4-3.
Jets fall to 0-7.
Chiefs,
BTA, the Raiders,
31-0.
Rashid Rice came back on the field, and my homeboys and Andy Reed didn't waste any time getting him to play.
The Chiefs look really, this is the best the Chiefs looked in a while ago,
and Mahomes boys started looking.
He started to look like he did three, two, three, four years ago, Ocho.
Mahomes, 26 and 35, 286, three touchdowns.
Clean game, no turnovers. Pacheco, then he ran the ball 41 times, 152.
Travis Kelsey, three catches, 54 yards. Rasheed Rice, seven catches, 42 yards, two touchdowns.
Smith had five for
five for 42. Taequan
Thornton had one for 39. Juju, three for 35.
Xavier Worthy, three for 35. Noah Gray, one for 28.
Hollywood Brown, two for 14, and a touchdown.
Everybody getting in on the party.
Gino.
You're going to lose your job, bro. You keep this up.
10 for 16, 67 yards. Hold on, Ocho.
I want to read something to you. I'm going to want you to.
And this was like the Jets were last week.
The Raiders had three first downs.
The Chiefs had 30 first downs. Jesus Christ.
They were 0 of 7 on third downs, 0 of 1 on fourth downs.
They ran 30 total plays. The Chiefs had as many first downs as the Raiders had plays.
Chad, you heard me correctly.
The Chiefs had as many first downs, 30, as the Raiders had total plays, 30.
The Chiefs had 434 total yards. The Raiders had 95 total yards.
The Chiefs possessed the football 42 minutes and 8 seconds.
is a 60-minute game.
That means the Raiders possess the football less than 18 minutes.
It's almost as if the Raiders is not an NFL team. It's almost as if the Raiders don't belong on the field with the Kansas City Chiefs.
Well, they didn't today.
And then their best defensive player got hit in the knee and he went out, Max Crosby.
The Chiefs look good.
Patrick Mahomes looked good.
You know, Patrick Mahomes out there throwing no look passes. You see him and Juju on this.
Hey, guy come, he's dumping the Juju right now. They go get first down.
Hollywood Brown is a cross the guy's face. I'm gonna hit you in the ends on you.
Get your cheek touched down.
But they're looking good. And when they're looking like this, and the defense is playing like they're playing, OJo.
It's so funny. When the Chiefs started 0-2,
everybody had something to say.
Yeah, They look bad offensively. They look bad on defense.
This ain't working. This ain't working.
And now look, four weeks later,
looking like the Kansas City Chiefs of old, everybody back healthy.
Now they're having fun.
You hit the nail on the head. They got everybody back healthy.
I mean, think about it. You got Rashid Rice back, who's your number one? Xavier Worthy, who stepped up in the absence and he grew.
You get Tyquan Thornton, who all of a a sudden, he looks like, okay, now I see why the Patriots took him in the second round. Yeah, he can run, but he can play.
Now, he's not going to get the same opportunity that he got before because Rashid Rice is back. But Juju is old, reliable.
You know, they're going to throw him.
They're going to put running smoke screen, jailbreak screen.
They can do a lot of different things with Juju.
24,
he's a running back and a receiver. He can do a lot of different things.
Patrick Mahomes is Patrick Mahomes.
You know, he's scrambling and making plays, but the thing is, he's not turning the ball over.
When he takes care of the football, the Chiefs are almost impossible for you to beat them if they don't turn the football over. And he's done a great job of that.
He looked at 14 touchdowns, two interceptions. He's starting to look like the Patrick Mahomes that we're used to seeing.
Oh, Joe, in the game before that, the Lions beat the Bucs 24-9.
Jameer Gibbs, 218 yards from scrimmage. He had 17 carries, a buck, 36.
He had 82 yards on three catches. Ocho, they had that combo block.
You see that was the guard that tackled
that deal to combo block,
moved that D out the way, got up on that backer. And when he hit that hole, I said, bro, that's a crap.
I felt bad for Winfield Jr.
because they're like, bro, that man got a hand.
You best, hey, he should have just started take it off, try to run it, and try to intercept him at the five.
He took an angle. That angle ain't matter.
Listen, Jameer Gibbs, Jameer Gibbs is probably the closest thing we have to Chris Johnson.
He's probably the closest thing we have to Chris Johnson right now in the NFL at the running back position. He doesn't get talked about enough.
We talk about B. John Russell.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. He got that kind of speed.
Yes, he got that kind of speed, Ocho. He looked fast.
You show, he show does. But you can't let a guy with that kind of speed, Ojo, come to the line of scrimmage upstairs.
Hey, once he gets past the, you don't make him check his feet.
Listen, sometimes, even if you make him check his feet, he still might get you.
True, true, but
but
without checking his feet, you got him at all
at all.
Ocho, you got to think about it. He didn't get touched right through there, clean.
And it's a hold on. That's like, it's like what we say about Derrick Henry.
You got to make him check his feet.
Because if you let him get a run running start coming downhill hell no don't nobody want to tackle it who i'm gonna make a business decision i'm gonna hit every every shoelace he got i'm gonna let him get past me and jump on his back
hey hell no you ain't gonna knock me out hell no
uh 24 to 24 to 9 detroit go to 5 and 2 tampa falls to 5 and 2 uh jerry goff was 20 to 29 241 one touchdown one interception was sacked four times me i don't think either quarterback paid paid particularly well.
I thought Baker had the worst of the two nights because he was high on a lot of throws. He missed Ibuka twice for touchdowns.
He had Ibuka once and hit the DB in the back.
And then he had another one that he wasn't able to step into it.
He undershot him on that one. But I thought he was high.
He missed a lot of throws. He had a lot of guys open, though, Joe.
He was high tonight for some reason.
I don't know if the pressure got to him. or what the case was, but he was high on a lot of throws tonight.
They didn't run the ball particularly well.
They didn't have a whole lot of rush attempts.
12 carries for 41 yards. Baker threw it 50 times because they fell behind.
They were down 14 to three.
And then Jerry Goff had that turnover.
But
Detroit defense is playing unbelievable. Hey, they got to give Kelvin Shappet his flowers.
They got to give Kelvin his flowers.
Not only did he call one hell of a game, right? Understand all the injuries that they have right now.
The whole back end is gone damn near.
Terry Arnold. Carry Joseph, Brian Robinson, Armstead.
I mean, Arnold, excuse me, Arnold. Not Armstead.
Arnold. Man, they
Brian Branch, Terry and Out. Oh, Brian Branch.
No,
Carrie. What's Carrie Joseph? Kirby Kirby.
Kerry Joseph. He's Kirby.
No, it's Kerry. Yeah,
Kirby Joseph. Hey, Arnold.
So they got three starters out in the secondary. And those guys that came in.
They were balling. Ocho, they played their ass off.
Was balling.
Balling. They played their ass off.
Hallett, eight tackles.
Whatcha call was being his disruptive self. Hutchinson, he didn't have a sack, but he caught a.
Hutchin ice now. Hutchins.
Yeah.
Wheat had a sack and a half. Barnes had a sack.
Jack Campbell had a sack.
The offense didn't look like itself, though, today,
it ain't look like itself.
And obviously, you're going against the Tampa Bay defense.
They ain't no slouch either. They ain't no slouch either.
So I think that's why it almost look,
I hate using the word human, but most of the time we watch the Lions offense, they do things that are different from everybody else.
They take chances that other teams definitely wouldn't take going forward for fourth and four, going forward for fourth and two. I mean, they put a lot of pressure on you.
You can't relax, don't you?
Exactly, exactly. So, and see, that's the thing
normal tonight
with the Lions.
It's really four downs because a lot of teams, you're like, okay, we get to 38, let's get off the field on third down.
Nah, there's a great chance you're probably going to have to stay on the field.
If it's fourth and four, let's depending on where they're first of all, if it's fourth and one, if they're near midfield, you might as well.
If they're on the other side of midfield, and if it's probably fourth and 10th, they go down territory. They're going.
Yeah,
they put a lot of damn pressure on you.
And it's hard to stay focused because they're so creative. They do a lot of things.
Hey, man, you saw them swing that ball to Jameer Gibbs and Penay Sewell was out there running.
Hey, Panay was moving, huh?
Yes.
I'm like, wait a minute. Look at Buddy.
Yeah.
I'm glad Winfield dodged it
because he running that fast. He'd hit somebody.
He'd hurt somebody badly.
Almond Ross St. Brown was Almond Ross St.
Brown. He had six catches, 86 yards, a touchdown.
Gibbs with three from 82.
Gibbs, again, 17 carries, a buck 36, two touchdowns.
I don't know. Look, we talk about these backs, and there's some great backs, but right now,
Gibbs, Bishon Robinson, and Jonathan Taylor,
they're the top three backs currently playing in the NFL. Absolutely.
You know what? I hate the fact that we have to leave Saquon off that list, but I think at some point,
as the season goes on, I think things will open up. He just has to continue to be patient, keep on chugging.
You know, those runs are going to come because as you start to have success in the past,
maybe, just maybe,
defenses say, okay, you know what?
We're not going to allow Jalen Hurst to beat us.
Since Saquon hasn't had any success so far this season, let's see if he can still do what he did last season.
The Seahawks take down the Texans 27-19. JSN, Jackson, Smith, and Jigba.
And the Seahawks defense were sensational. And Texans offense at many points in time tonight, OJo, looked it up.
CJ Stroud,
look, you're going to see had decent numbers, but it was late in the ball game when they needing meaningful third down conversion, when they needed meaningful first, fourth down conversion, when they needed to get the ball into the end zone.
They
came up really short.
Sam Darnell was awful tonight. They won the game, but he was awful.
Two terrible picks, got strip sacked in the end zone, almost got locked for another safety.
Let's start from, let's start, let's let's take it from, go ahead and take a start from Seattle. Seattle won the game.
They're 5-2.
If I'm not mistaken, I think they're tied with the 49ers for number one in the division
at 5-2, followed by the Rams.
But
that deep,
Seattle's advanced.
They're very disruptive.
Okay, so all the Rams, Niners, and Seahawks are all five and two. Obviously, the Cardinals are not five and two.
Jackson, Smith, and Jigma.
Look, we can say, all I know is this. You can rank him where you want to, but I don't believe he's going to be there very much longer.
He is the best rock. Hey,
he can do it all.
He got the release game. He quicker than a cat
on a marble table.
Get great hands.
Man,
he's special.
He's special. And they got a lot of guys that come out of Ohio State.
They got Olave and they got Garrett Moss and they got Michael. They got a Marvin Harrison Jr.
And they got J-Mo.
But that kid there. He's nice.
He's nice. He's everything
that is advertised. Everything.
I mean, listen, he's always been. You understand.
Now you understand how good he is when the team was willing to let DK Metcalf go and let Ty Locker go because they understood what they had on their hands.
They understood what they had on their hands.
He's very good. Very good.
Very, very sharp. Very polished receiver.
Cooper Cuck threw one pick out. Sam Donald had one pick.
Cooper Cup threw the pick that overthrew
the DB, overthrew the receiver and
got it picked. But Sam Donald still was awful, even with the one pick and the strip sack in the end zone.
And you know what? You know, honestly, Sam Donald, they have a game like this, huh?
Because it took for him to get the week seven to have this type of game. where it looked nasty and he needed a defense to Satan because the defense said,
he looked like the Houston Texans, especially in the first half, it looked like they didn't even belong in the goddamn game. They couldn't get anything going offensively.
They couldn't find any rhythm.
C.J. Stroud was flushed out of the pocket.
He was flushed up in the pocket. He had some drops as well.
So, I mean,
it didn't help them. It was 24.
It was, no, that was
Nico Collins. I had one question now.
What happened with Joe Mixon?
He hurt. They say
he did with an injury still from last year. He's supposed to come back after week four, if I'm not mistaken.
Nah.
I think that's one of the reasons why they ended up signing
because of that. But see, this is what's concerning because we saw this last year with Sam Darnold.
Remember late in the season?
When they started playing, when they had to play Detroit and they had to play teams with defenses. And we see what happened.
That can certainly look their defense is going to keep them in every game. Absolutely,
their defense is going to keep them in every game because they're that good. Now, when they get with the spoon back,
but that D-line, that front seven, uh, hey, Lennon Williams, Ernest Jones, the fourth, Lennon Williams, hey, they the real deal.
How close, how close do you think they are? Well, no, all right, that's that's kind of
I think the Rams is the best team in that division, okay?
me personally because of their offense but if if if we their defense good too now don't sleep on their defense
but are they as good as are they as good as the seahawks
but let me ask you a question is the seahawks offense as good as the rams absolutely not especially because remember that they they did what they did to jacksonville without puka yeah
they can run it with kyron williams i think the rams running game is a little better than the seahawks let's just say for the sake of argument i think their passing game i definitely know the quarterback is better.
Matthew Stafford is better than Sam Darnold.
Now, you're going to go wide receiver. You say Puka, Devontae Adams, Higby.
Are they as good as Seattle's rest? Yeah.
Absolutely. Absolutely.
So
I'll give them the nod. They can rush the passer with those two guys on the edge.
They're good. They're really good.
You got to forget now.
Seattle does have a triple crown winner that was just on that ram team not too long ago.
yeah, yeah. But oh, Joe, oh Joe, he ain't the same, oh Joe, you know that you watching.
Wait, wait, wait a minute, wait a minute, okay, even if he's not the same, there's certain players they're they're 100% 100,
or them being at 80 is sometimes better than other players that are at 100.
Of course, he's not
now when you're looking now, when you're looking at the Rams. So, let me ask you a question: Is he better than Debon? Absolutely not.
Okay, is he better than Puka? No,
no, So what do we do?
So if he's their number, if he's their number two receiver,
Puka's number one. He's number two.
Now, if you want to say
JSN and Puka right there neck and neck because Puka's made the Pro Bowl. Puka's a 100-catch guy back-to-back season, if I'm not mistaken.
So we know what Puka is. JSN is special.
He's really, I mean, this is really my first time just getting an opportunity to sit down and just watch him.
Ain't no other games on because, oh, Joe, you know, I'm trying to watch Seattle and i'm trying to watch this team and i'm trying to watch that team but i'm talking about he had my undivided attention and i'm watching his releases and i'm watching him get in and out of breaks you're not oh he quicker the cat on the hot table
you know he you know he was down he came down here to uh why receive a workshop so i was i was yeah oh did he yeah i was up i was able to see it up close and obviously he got feet on him oh joe he got some good feet on him he got some real good feet on him it's one thing it's one thing you think is you hear about players and you think oh he come from oh Ohio State.
So they just hype up those individuals, but he is everything he's advertised to be, especially when you get to see it up close in person. And then you see it happen tonight.
Obviously, not just tonight, but obviously
throughout the entirety of the season. So it gives you a better understanding.
Oh, now I get it. Now I see what all the hype was for.
Now I see why it was so easy for them to let DK Metcalf go.
Let Tyler Locker go because they understood what they had on their hands.
They got something special.
oh he he he the real he's the real deal lojo he he he is the he is the real deal and you know hey after next season they're gonna have to come see him he's gonna probably be he gonna a he's gonna look to get that high 30 he's gonna be in the high 30s 40 million i don't know how because here's the thing that contract by the time he get his contract that contract to be almost three years old you can't keep saying well no no no no no we keep dropping that we keep driving that price up
we we're not finna just a we're not just finna get slotted. Oh, Chase, oh, no.
Chase was the best. He got that money three years ago.
Now it's time for us to pole ball, even if we're not.
But man, that joker there, man. He is so quick, oh, Joe.
Damn, in and out of the breaks. And he's so foolish.
He's more quick than fast. He's not breaking fast.
Oh, yes.
He's so goddamn quick. And he's able to manipulate DBs.
But you didn't see that. You didn't see that.
I saw that release. He faked him inside and he got outside on it.
I'm talking about
the Dino route on Stingley.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
But the thing is, Ocho,
a perfect throw beat, perfect coverage.
You can't throw, you can't play it anymore better than that, because
I got to honor that for the simple fact, Ocho, is that he could possibly run the seven route on me. So I just can't sell out to the post.
Ain't nobody in the hole but if you look at when sam darner threw that ball he hadn't even broke yet that ball was out his way gone
now the only thing i will say
uh uh uh stingley gave up a seven route with a safety in the hole bro run to him
if you run if you run if you run the post the safety should knock you out they hey i need to be doing this to the amalance to come get you
But you're not finna, you're not finna run no seven route and cover and cover one on me.
Because guess what i ain't going for i ain't going for the post move because i got a safety in the hole i'm gonna run to your hip
because that's why i'm vulnerable and guess what get them every time because you know what man i'm finna get i'm finna undercut this seven route i'm finna undercut you see they get so caught up man i'm gonna d up ocho they get that ocho you give them that head
oh i'm gonna get this one i'm gonna get this one bro you got help there and no you weak over here no no need to cheat and you get them every time no need to cheat it
but uh
man
i don't know what
look cj is 23 of 49 229 one touch uh one touchdown one interception he was sacked three times he was pressured relentlessly dodged the bullet he got stripped sacked the guy fumbled the ball that should have been a that should have been a that was a fumble but ended up turning into a
touchdown
it could have should have it absolutely should have been a touchdown The offensive line, I don't know what they doing.
I don't. I mean, you look at them and sometimes you got two guys walking one guy and another guy running scot-free.
Bro, pass that ish off
and don't turn your body. Just put a hand there so you can see it's coming.
Because once you do this, it's a wrap. To try to turn back, that guy going to be on your shoulder so fast, man.
You ain't got no chance.
