Speaker 1 Thank you to our partner, Boarshead. Ooh, a little meat.

Speaker 1 The end of the season is in full swing, and you know what that means. Time to eat meat.

Speaker 1 Millions of fans are turning their homes into game day headquarters every weekend. Gosh, and whether you're hosting a watch party at home or tailgating before a big game, you gotta feed the crowd.

Speaker 1 You gotta feed the crowd. That's where Boar's Head comes in the clutch.
Yes. Their platters are literally a game changer.
We're talking premium meats, cheeses, dips, and more.

Speaker 1 What's your go-to deli platter, Jason? I mean, any of them.

Speaker 1 Dude, anything that combines crackers, meat, cheese, and mustard, it doesn't matter what kind it is. You got Pepper Jack.
You got Provolone.

Speaker 1 You got cheddar. You got beer cheese.
You got salami. You got kilbasa.
There you go. Don't be all archy with me.
Ritz crackers.

Speaker 1 Maybe you could do some of those like whole grain thick boys that are around. Those are kind of nice too.
If you want to be kind of different, you go with like a wheat thin.

Speaker 1 If you really want to elevate your game day spread and score big with your entire home gating, that's tailgating at home.

Speaker 1 Visit your local Boarshead Deli. They'll hook you up with a ready-made platter.
Ooh. Or you can build on your own.
There you go. Either way, you're upgrading your game day with some serious flavor.

Speaker 1 Boarshead, committed to craft since 1905. How about it? It's just a great name, too.
Over 100. Yeah, you know what you're getting.
Boarshead.

Speaker 1 This is a real good story about Bronx and his dad, Ryan, real United Airlines customers.

Speaker 1 We were returning home, and one of the flight attendants asked Bronx if he wanted to see the flight deck and meet Captain Andrew. I got to sit in the driver's seat.

Speaker 1 I grew up in an aviation family, and seeing Bronx kind of reminded me of myself when I was that age. That's Andrew, a real United pilot.
These small interactions can shape a kid's future.

Speaker 1 It felt like I was the captain. Allowing my son to see the flight deck will stick with us forever.
That's how good leads the way.

Speaker 1 That fucking glare coming through that end zone in the afternoon is fucking ridiculous. Gary Jones was asked about the possibility of putting up curtains to block out the sun at ATT Stadium.

Speaker 1 He said, Well, where's the moon? I need to hear this

Speaker 1 to understand what the freaking

Speaker 1 Welcome back to New Heights, ladies and gentlemen. A wondry show produced by Wave Sports and Entertainment.

Score with the Lowe's app. Download now.
That's right. We are your hosts.
I'm Travis Kelsey.

Speaker 1 This is my big brother, Jason Kelsey, out of Cleveland Heights, Ohio. Cincinnati Bearcat alums.
Bearcats got to get back on the wind train, baby. Come on, baby.
Come on. Come on.

Speaker 1 Let's get this thing going. We were on fire there for a second.
We were doing so good. Keep this thing rolling, cats.

Speaker 1 Subscribe on YouTube, OneGree Plus, or wherever you get your podcast and follow the show on all social media at New Heights Show. That is with 1S.

Speaker 1 And we got some fun clips throughout the week that I'm sure you guys will laugh at because we're idiots. Jason, tell the people what us idiots are going to talk about today.
Well,

Speaker 1 all the idiots listening, we have a fantastic episode lined up for all of you. That's right.

Speaker 1 We're going to talk about the Chiefs walk-off blocked field goal, the Eagles' blowout of the Cowboys. Again, sorry there, Brandon.
And also get to my time out of the house in L.A.

Speaker 1 Plus, we're going to hit the biggest storylines, of course, from across week 10 in the NFL. I think we got to start with something we usually start with first.
What's that? It's not old. It's not.

Speaker 1 It's not late. It's not.
It's not

Speaker 1 a hand-me-down. It's not, not new.
It's not not new. That's because it is new.
It's new news.

Speaker 1 New news. Hey, new news is brought to you by MetaQuest.
Expand your world. Yes.
All right. New Heights Film Club.
First item of new news. 92% is voted.

Speaker 1 And the next movie in the New Heights Film Club is

Speaker 1 Roadhouse.

Speaker 1 Shut up, fuck. We're doing the original.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I'm not doing the new.

Speaker 1 I have not watched it yet, and I probably am based on the reviews I've heard from others, not going to watch it. The original ones is so good, man.

Speaker 1 There's some movies that you just can't remake, and I think Roadhouse is who's going to, you can't redo Swayze. You can't do

Speaker 1 anybody around that can do Swayze.

Speaker 1 So, yeah, it was a tight race. I'm lying.
It wasn't a tight race at all. Roadhouse almost got half of the votes.
He got 41% of

Speaker 1 four.

Speaker 1 That's what we're talking about, 92%ers. That's what I'm talking about.
It was the clear favorite. And, I mean, let's be honest.
I think of all these movies, Roadhouse is the most iconic.

Speaker 1 And that's why I probably won. Predator is by far the most iconic.
More than Roadhouse, you think? Oh, guaranteed. I think people

Speaker 1 were interested because Patrick Swayze. They were like, all right, which one has the hottest guy?

Speaker 1 Which one has the hottest guy? Predator's gotten the hottest guy.

Speaker 1 You got Carl Weathers, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Jesse Ventura. I mean, come on now.
That's a lot of bands. There's no way.
Oh, yeah. There's no way.
None of them are Swayze. Don't underestimate, too.

Speaker 1 Oh, my gosh. What's the other guy in Roadhouse? What's his name? I can't think of his name right now.
The cowboy. Awesome mustache.
Oh, I get it.

Speaker 1 Sam Elliott. Thank you, Brandon.
He fucking kills it. Roadhouse has definitely got like a more like cult following than any of these films, but I think Bloodsport is by far the one that I preferred.

Speaker 1 But you win some, you lose some. My ability to sway votes has definitely gone downhill.

Speaker 1 It did not work again.

Speaker 1 Because everyone knows your tactics now. Oh, gosh.
You got to start flanking, Jason. You got to start flanking.
Take ahead of the curve. Everybody's scheming you up, man.

Speaker 1 There were also some 92%ers who were confused in the comments about what Bloodsport is. This is fucking good.

Speaker 1 So I had to clear things up for them there, Trav. Yeah, she had to clear things up for them.
You had a back and forth with

Speaker 1 Tayranto, Jordan from Tayronto.

Speaker 1 She said, what is this movie about? And you replied with Bloodsport, just the title. Just right back at her.
That's what it's about.

Speaker 1 And then she then, I just voted Bloodsport, but I still don't know what it is. And you then replied again with, it's Bloodsport is what it is.

Speaker 1 And I thought that was very clever because that's exactly what it is. There's no other, there's no other like review or explanation you need to give.

Speaker 1 Once you see the movie, you will then tell everybody else exactly what it's about. And it's about Bloodsport.
I mean, I guess it's about the Kumite tournament and, you know, all that.

Speaker 1 Yeah, but the tournament's about Blood Sport. Yeah, exactly.
At the end of the day, it's Blood Sport. It's about the power of friendship.
The power of friendship?

Speaker 1 Don't do this. All right.
We're trying to. Let's not try and make like a thematic

Speaker 1 thing out of the Brotherhood of Bloodsport. Okay.
This is Bloodsport. We will give everyone time to watch this movie.
So we'll drop our review later this month.

Speaker 1 In the meantime, tomorrow we are going to dip back into the Heights Hotline and answer some more of your burning relationship questions. I don't know if

Speaker 1 you qualify. You make sure that you hit us with the best questions you got because we are miracle makers makers when it comes to relationship advice.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I got some mixed reviews on my relationship advice from the public and from my own wife, Kylie. So hopefully, I do better this week.

Speaker 1 Yeah, if you want access to all of our bonus content, make sure you're subscribed at Wondery Plus.

Speaker 1 You guys have been watching Jumanji? Oh, dude, it's actually a nice little code. Now I just text her if she wants to watch Jumanji early in the day.

Speaker 1 Same.

Speaker 1 I'll playing these Jedi mind tricks.

Speaker 1 Don't get stuck in the game, folks. I text Kylie, did you watch Jumaji today? And she said,

Speaker 1 drier than the Sahara Desert. And I was like, that movie takes place in the rainforest.

Speaker 1 Ah, Jason has dethroned the queen of Christmas, the amazing, the wonderful Mariah Carey. No, buddy.
A Philly special Christmas party.

Speaker 1 Maybe this Christmas Christmas by A Philly Specials and Stevie Nicks is the number one Christmas song on the charts right now. Yeah.

Speaker 1 The duet with Stevie Nicks is officially the number one Christmas song. And beat out, All I Want for Christmas is You by Mariah Carey.

Speaker 1 And I mean, that song is as good as it gets when it comes to Christmas music. Jason, how does it feel to officially be the queen of Christmas?

Speaker 1 You know, I've fought my whole life to be the queen of Christmas, and the fact that we're finally there is just

Speaker 1 really special. I forget what the stat was.

Speaker 1 was somebody said i think all i want for christmas you has like been the number one christmas song since 1994 i don't know if it's since 1994 but it's been like for like 20 years it's been non-stop like the number one christmas song or something like that yeah of course so you know i know we we we caught it or in early november we'll see if it holds up throughout the rest of christmas we kind of caught it on the christmas downslide like not too many people are listening to christmas music so we kind of jumped in there yeah i get it i'll take it when i can get it that's pretty amazing and uh was incredible to work with Stevie Nicks.

Speaker 1 I mean, obviously, I just am still in awe of the fact that that actually happened. Stevie.
And this is really, really cool.

Speaker 1 I mean, there is no percent chance any song that I am in should be streaming number one on any service in any genre. Yeah.
Well, don't give yourself too much credit. Stevie Nicks.

Speaker 1 That's exactly right.

Speaker 1 Yes. Good point.
No, man. That's some cool ass shit, man.
I can't wait for everything to drop. It drops the day day after Thanksgiving.
So the song is out now. The single came out.

Speaker 1 Yeah, the single came out, but the album will be fully streamable.

Speaker 1 I think it's like the day after Thanksgiving. Yeah, I think

Speaker 1 the album goes for sale, but it's already pre-sale. Pre-ordered.
We got to ask Connor. Connor knows all the details.
I don't know half of the details. I just have fun make the music.

Speaker 1 He knows how the release structure works. I'm an idiot.
I just show up and

Speaker 1 it's coming out slowly. We got another single coming out this week with our friends from Mount Joy.
Nice. Iconic Philly band.
That song's tremendous. So pretty excited to see how that does.
Hell yeah.

Speaker 1 I think we're going to be releasing this tomorrow, but I'm going to be putting on a concert before this Thursday night game with Mount Joy.

Speaker 1 I'm sorry, what? You're going to do live music? Dude, I'm performing the song that we recorded for the album.

Speaker 1 live at the link before the game starts with Mount Joy. And I kind of feel, I don't know if this is the right thing to do.

Speaker 1 Like the Eagles are about to play like a heated, like the most important game of the year. They're playing the Washington Commanders.

Speaker 1 And me and Mount Joy are going to go in there before the game kicks off and perform a Christmas song because we want to help raise money for the album. What game is this?

Speaker 1 It's Eagles versus Washington, the Commanders. This week? This week.
It's on Thursday. It's

Speaker 1 going to be the day after this.

Speaker 1 And

Speaker 1 initially, I was like, yeah, let's just do something. It's Thursday.
Now you're doing this in two days. Yes, dude.

Speaker 1 Bro,

Speaker 1 we initially were like, we're just going to do something in the parking lot. It'll be fun.
Like, just to get it on video to help promote it.

Speaker 1 And somehow it's turned into, we're full on, have like a stage in the link part of it.

Speaker 1 And we're just going to be performing the song right before the most important game of the Eagles season to date takes place. So, well, so yeah.
You better make it epic. Well, my voice is shot.

Speaker 1 Let's move on to a little bit of that bold topics to wrap up week 10 in the NFL, starting with the Kansas City Chiefs.

Speaker 1 How about those?

Speaker 1 Chiefs, 16. Broncos, 14.
Man, that was a crazy game. I was watching this game actually at Big Dean's down in Venice Beach,

Speaker 1 which is a New York Giants bar, which was embarrassing for them right after losing to the Panthers. But the whole bar was absolutely losing it with this one.

Speaker 1 You guys trail the entire game up until the fourth quarter, which in typical fashion, you guys then take the lead. And it comes down to, I mean, what is this? A 35-yard? Yeah, 35-yard field goal kick.

Speaker 1 I mean, probably the most electric way to end a game. I used to think like Hail Mary or like a touchdown, walk-off touchdown.

Speaker 1 I don't think there's anything more electric than blocking a kick to win a game. That the place just erupted.

Speaker 1 The entire, I don't think I had been a part of the stadium where it went fucking ape shit like that. Dude, I can only imagine.

Speaker 1 It got me to the point where my eyes, like the emotion and everything, my eyes started watering. And I was like getting goosebumps.
I'm like, this is insane.

Speaker 1 How we just got through here with a win. And we were talking like right when it led up, the whole bar where we were at had pretty much, okay, well, the Chiefs just lost their first game.

Speaker 1 Like the Broncos did a great job. They did what you need to do to beat the Chiefs.
Don't give the ball back to Pat Mold. Whatever you do, do not give it back.
Milk the clock.

Speaker 1 They got it down to one second. Yeah.
TJ, who was the bartender, was like, I don't know, man. They still got to make the kick.
And I, and I literally was like, you know what?

Speaker 1 There have been a lot of blocks this year. I swear to God.

Speaker 1 That's insane to talk about it like that. I mean, I didn't think it was about to happen, but I was like, you know what? It could.
I mean, I guess. Kareem was on the sidelines screaming it.

Speaker 1 We're about to block this punt. I'm just in my head.
I'm just like, it's only one loss, Travis. You're like, it's not a punt.

Speaker 1 I was already in my head. I was already, I was already.
No, I mean, my bad. You blocked this kick.

Speaker 1 My bad. He was saying he was going to block this kick, but

Speaker 1 I was in my head from not scoring a touchdown on the drive right before that and like forcing them to score a touchdown instead of kick a field goal for me. I know exactly what player.

Speaker 1 You look like you just couldn't quite get your feet in the footing to like jump. It was like an awkward touchdown.
It was that one. It was a great ball by Pat.

Speaker 1 I was fading, so I didn't have my feet under me to be able to just spring up. And

Speaker 1 two plays or three plays before that, I actually got a first down, but they went cover zero, and and all I had to do was make one guy miss. And he wrapped my leg, he wrapped my shoes up.

Speaker 1 That's the one you're talking about? Yeah. And it's just, you know, I think I've put that much pressure on myself or that much accountability on myself to make that guy miss and

Speaker 1 be that difference maker.

Speaker 1 I hear you. It's just, for whatever reason, it was a good tackle by six.
And I hate myself for it. I hate that, you know, everybody's looking at Pat for like he overthrew me on that last play.

Speaker 1 It was a great ball. I just didn't have my feet under me to go up and get it.

Speaker 1 The ball didn't even, it's not even like it went over like the crossbars. Like, like it was a very catchable ball.

Speaker 1 If I would have it was right on the on the, I think if you would have had footing, you definitely could have jumped up and got it. But

Speaker 1 yeah, but either way, this is why you have teammates. This is in particular.

Speaker 1 And I was in, I was in the tank, and these guys fucking, yet again, when I do something stupid or I fuck up, my guys are right there to pick me up. And

Speaker 1 it was awesome to see a guy like Leo Chanel be the difference maker. That's what I was about to say.
We talk about teammates.

Speaker 1 Man, like the way you've talked about him and the way it feels like all the Kansas City Chiefs talk about this guy, like he is the ultimate teammate. He does so many things.

Speaker 1 You guys will put him at fullback. He plays D-line.
He plays linebacker. He does all these things for the Chiefs.
And on top of that, he blocks kicks to win games. Ain't that the truth?

Speaker 1 Let's talk about this a little bit. Let's rewind this, Brandon, if we can.
Get it back to the start here. So 54 is

Speaker 1 that position is called tight end on field goal. And I'm just letting you know this right now, people.
It is the worst position. It is arguably the hardest position on any special teams unit.

Speaker 1 This guy is being taught to

Speaker 1 stab the guy that is in the gap inside of him,

Speaker 1 stab the guy that is in the gap outside of him, inside of him and outside of him, and then on top of that, take a fucking guy right down the center. NFL player.

Speaker 1 And you're not even allowed to touch him with your hands.

Speaker 1 And you're just here and they tell you to die slow.

Speaker 1 That is literally the coaching on it.

Speaker 1 We know.

Speaker 1 You're going to get your ass beat. All right.
We put our toughest guy in there. We just need you to be stout for two seconds or however long it takes for them to snap the ball and kick it.

Speaker 1 Like, we just need you to have that two-second

Speaker 1 strain to finish. And that's why they say die slow because you typically end up on your ass every fucking time.

Speaker 1 Every time they put this kind of rush where there's three guys guys over top of you, you are going three people pushing on you, you're going to fall. Just don't fall too fast, essentially.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 And he felt lickety. I'm not going to lie.
This was.

Speaker 1 I don't even. Look at where his butt is.
You got to get your butt up a little bit more than that. But we need more flatback.
We need more flatback. Exactly.

Speaker 1 We're not worried about our head being down or anything. You got to get a job done.
Yeah. We got to bring Newton's law into this thing and start breaking out the protractor.

Speaker 1 We used to say this guy used to be, we used to say he's the most unselfish player on the team before when there was a kickoff return and a wedge unit, oh, yeah, wedge unit, and this guy.

Speaker 1 But now that there's no more wedge unit, this guy takes a cake.

Speaker 1 Like, you're gonna get killed.

Speaker 1 Yeah, and what's unique about this too is like, I don't know if we still do this, to be honest with you, because I don't, I haven't been in the field goal meetings in a while, but typically the field side tight end is a bigger body guy that dies slower because the way the kick has to go on the right hash, it's going to go to the left.

Speaker 1 So, teams will usually put their bigger, better tight end to the field.

Speaker 1 A lot of times they won't play sides. It looked like Chicago just played these guys on sides.
They didn't really like swap them.

Speaker 1 Like we, I know Jordan Mulata when he used to do this, we used to put Jordan Malata to the field. When Bo Allen used to do this, he was really good at it.

Speaker 1 We would put him to the field because we knew that the rush, if they were going to get there, had to come from that angle on a hash, which also makes it very interesting.

Speaker 1 And I don't want to call anybody out.

Speaker 1 I think think it's already been noticed that uh 5-4 for denver i'm not sure of his name but he was he was kind of he was getting pointed out in the special teams like film that hey this guy isn't necessarily dying as slow as you would hope of course yeah you would hope that you you you fix that before you get put in a situation like this and ironically The play before this,

Speaker 1 the quarterback did a, or the offense did a play where they snapped a ball and they run the ball over to the right hash and take a knee.

Speaker 1 Yeah, they centered, they centered it, so now the kick has to go over the left side of the offensive line or the field goal block or the field goal unit. That's right where kind of the 5-4 is.

Speaker 1 And I mean, it's just, it matched up perfectly for us to really give us

Speaker 1 confidence that we could go and get it. But at the end of the day,

Speaker 1 everything goes down to making the play. And you see guys like Leo Chanel and George Carloftis, who's right here

Speaker 1 shooting. What is that? The C gap as well, trying to get in there, bone them down.
They're all going through that gap. Everyone's going right through that gap.

Speaker 1 You could tell it was an effort and something that Coach Tob, one of the best special teams coordinators of the NFL's history,

Speaker 1 he had dialed in on that one to make sure our guys knew that that was a weak point or something that we could take advantage of.

Speaker 1 And for those of you wondering why you would put the ball in the right hash, a lot of the times kickers actually don't want the ball in the middle of the field.

Speaker 1 They prefer having an angle on the kick and they'll ask the kicker, hey, do you want this on the right hash or the left hash?

Speaker 1 When they have enough time like this in a crucial moment, they're going to try and make it as easy or put in a position where the kicker has as much confidence as possible.

Speaker 1 So they put it on the right hash. Yeah.
unknowingly making it more vulnerable to being blocked because of where the pressure was coming the majority of the game.

Speaker 1 And I don't want to, like, listen, I'm going to give Alex all the credit in the world. That position sucks.
It's the worst. It was so hard.
It's the worst.

Speaker 1 It's so easy for us to say, why isn't he leaning forward? Well, the problem is, once you start leaning, then they're

Speaker 1 shedding the other gaps. Like, it's so, it's a position that is really hard to be right on.
You have to have great balance.

Speaker 1 It was not executed well for him, obviously, on that play, but part of it's also just like,

Speaker 1 you know, he didn't get his foot down, which would have helped him. But what an amazing effort and and just outstanding play from Carloftis and from Leo Chanel.
And

Speaker 1 was that Chris Jones who was also in on that on the inside, maybe? Mike Pinnell. Mike Pinnell.

Speaker 1 Jack Cochran getting in there. Everybody was in that thing.

Speaker 1 Yeah, it was an insane effort on a play that's like, you know, at that point, you got to be, you can't help but think a little bit like, God dang, man, this is.

Speaker 1 Damn near games over almost. Like, I mean, I was, I told you, I was in the fucking tank.
Yeah, you have, I mean, especially on the sideline when you can't make a difference.

Speaker 1 You're like, come on, guys, please, somebody, please make a play. But, like, you know, the chances that that happens are so small.
I think couldn't happen to a better guy, it seems like.

Speaker 1 And Leo Chanel loved everything that happened after the game. So, yeah, couldn't happen to a better teammate, it seems.
Everybody pumping up John Cena here. John's on Chanel.

Speaker 1 He's like the strength.

Speaker 1 They got it. When he comes out of the tunnel next, they got to hit him with the John Cena.
It's got to be from now on. Yes.

Speaker 1 He's like the strength of a fucking D-lineman.

Speaker 1 He's like the strength of a D-lineman, but he plays the linebacker position. You don't want to be the guy on the end when he's working out.

Speaker 1 Bro, he made my training camp living hell going against him, man. I loved every bit of it, too.
He's just such a, he's such a good teammate, accountable every single day.

Speaker 1 And you just love to see a guy get, a guy have success like that, knowing how much he fucking he works, man. Yeah, what did he do to make it,

Speaker 1 I don't know, hard for you? I mean, he's just, he's like long arms. He gets the, he gets his hands on you in terms of reroutes.

Speaker 1 Spags was playing some defensive stuff that he knew we were going to play some good tight ends this year, so he wanted to have some packages in to kind of slow down the tight end off the ball.

Speaker 1 And Leo was the guy that fucking just making my day hell the third day in practice and just fucking standing in front of me and just making sure that I don't get into my route.

Speaker 1 Can't get right into your route, throw the timing off.

Speaker 1 And then on top of that, blocking him is just, it's one of the hardest things because his arms are so long and he plays with such good leverage, man. Yeah, it's got good ankle flexion.

Speaker 1 Yeah, it's always a bummer. All right, Mike Pennell also said, Leo, before the play, he said that he was going to do it.

Speaker 1 So we all had faith in each other. He was unwavering faith in his ability.
So we're all behind him. We call him the beast.
He is the beast.

Speaker 1 Mahomes calls him John Cena. Everybody else calls him the beast.
This guy's got some great nicknames. I mean,

Speaker 1 dude, do you know his nickname from college?

Speaker 1 what's his nickname from college death row death row death row death row records why is he death row dude well i mean watch it watch how he plays you'll get it all right this uh my favorite clip ever though what when he got drafted they asked leo chanel what are you going to bring to kansas city okay and he looked at he looked at that reporter

Speaker 1 violence and physicality wow

Speaker 1 That's a good answer. That's a football guy answer right there.

Speaker 1 Can somebody please pull up that video? We We gotta find that. Can you find that video? I think it was violence and physicality.
I forget what it was.

Speaker 1 Leo, what do you bring to the table for the kingdom? Violence and physicality, man.

Speaker 1 I am addicted to hitting people. I love that.

Speaker 1 I can't get it off.

Speaker 1 Let's fucking go. What a.
I'm addicted to hitting people. The whole crowd just erupts.
You just got someone that loves to assault people for a living.

Speaker 1 And I will take full advantage of being able to assault the man in front of me. Leo, can you give us a nuanced answer as to why you are going to be a great pick for the Kansas?

Speaker 1 Violence and physicality.

Speaker 1 That reminds me. That reminds me of that, dude.
That reminds me so much of that Marshawn Lynch interview. Like his high school interview? No, he's doing an interview and the reporter.

Speaker 1 is like asking him questions. He's like, there's not too many people that can take you running through somebody's face over and over and over and over over and over,

Speaker 1 and over and over, and over and over again.

Speaker 1 And the guy said, the reporter says, is there some type of, I forget, he tries to like have some like quick, like smart comeback where it's like, oh, is there something symbolic in that?

Speaker 1 And he said, run through a motherfucking face.

Speaker 1 I mean, Marshall is gold, man.

Speaker 1 God damn, I would have loved to fucking play with that guy. Yeah, the field goal attempt almost didn't happen.

Speaker 1 It was reported on Pro Football Talk that there was talk among the chiefs defense of possibly letting the broncos score at the end as a strategy to get the ball back and i'll explain this we every team has a play in their playbook on defense when you're out of timeouts there's no way for you to stop the clock anymore you'll actually let the team score just so you get an opportunity to get the ball back.

Speaker 1 You have to be within a score, though. It's a last-ditch effort.
It usually happens with seconds, like you're under a minute on the play clock, and you're like, man, they're going to get a field goal.

Speaker 1 We can't stop the clock anymore. Let's just let them score a touchdown because then maybe we can somehow get in the end zone.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 Um, if we get the ball back, and I was actually in that same bar wondering if you guys were going to do that.

Speaker 1 So it's interesting to know that you guys are also thinking about it because it was in that. This was the situation where it's like, we're in, I don't know what you guys call it.

Speaker 1 I think we used to, I don't even want to say we used to call it because I don't know if that'll tip it off, but like just let them score mode. Let them score mode.

Speaker 1 But you don't want to make it too easy. We actually actually tried it on you guys

Speaker 1 very unconvincingly, and you guys took a kneel down and didn't score. Unfortunately, we would have hoped you would have scored.

Speaker 1 This is a situation where sometimes you'll actually see the defense try and carry a guy in, like carry a tackle, like try and make a tackle, carry him into the end zone.

Speaker 1 You know, seriously. And so, if you ever see that at the end of a game, sometimes it requires a little bit of acting ability.
You don't want to just make it obvious you're letting them score.

Speaker 1 You want to actually miss a tackle on purpose.

Speaker 1 But either way, Spaggs reportedly said, no, we're not doing that. We're going to make this stop and force him to make the kick.
Interesting. I mean, listen.
And Spaggs.

Speaker 1 We trust Baby. Yeah, right.
In retrospect, it's absolutely bonkers that you guys blocked this kick. And I think it's the, it's, like I said before,

Speaker 1 it is probably the most electric way to end a game on a ball. Dude, it was a double thump to end it.

Speaker 1 Like, that is absolutely freaking crazy. Especially from 35 yards out.
It's one thing if it's from fucking deep, man. Exactly.
Like, this is like a, I don't know what the, it was

Speaker 1 a buildup. It's probably a 92% chance that that field goes going in.

Speaker 1 It might even be higher than that.

Speaker 1 The fact that it was kind of building up from like the two-minute, because we used just about all our timeouts.

Speaker 1 I think we had one left, but we used all our timeouts, tried to set it up so that we would have time left and they get the big first down on the third down play. That gets them into field goal range.

Speaker 1 And now they keep just like slowly taking off the clock, slowly taking off the clock. So it's like building up.
It's like, fuck, how do we let him get to this point, man?

Speaker 1 Now it's like the chances are slim. And then do do.

Speaker 1 And the fucking top just fucking pops off and just the entire stadium just goes nuts.

Speaker 1 It was insane, man. Yeah, if it only have a lot of time.
You don't have too many regular season games that get the stadium rocking like that, man. For sure.

Speaker 1 But Little Chiefs Broncos always gets it going. Well, another thing that got it rocking on social media after the game, the Chanel Jersey incident.

Speaker 1 What a gospel, man. This was pretty cool.
Once Coach Reed finished his post-game remarks, he let Chanel break down the team's final huddle, a first-time moment for him in his career.

Speaker 1 A few minutes later,

Speaker 1 I don't know who's writing this. I don't know, but I'm just going to read it because I don't know anything.

Speaker 1 A few minutes later, before his post-game shower, Chanel asked Kelsey for something he's wanted since his rookie season.

Speaker 1 Just before Chanel left the locker room, Kelsey, still shirtless, gave his teammate the memento he wanted, his red game-worn 87 jersey with his signature and a short message to Chanel written in black Sharpie on the white number seven.

Speaker 1 And Chanel said, I've been waiting for the right time, smiling.

Speaker 1 I felt I earned it.

Speaker 1 Oh, my God. It's pretty awesome, man.
He earned it. He earned it just by fucking being a good teammate.

Speaker 1 And this is actually, this is my fault. Of course, it's my fault.

Speaker 1 He mentioned that he wanted it since

Speaker 1 his rookie year. He came up to me and asked me if I was like, dude, fuck you.

Speaker 1 No problem, man. I'll write this thing out to you in a heartbeat.
And sure enough,

Speaker 1 I forget to do it that day. And two years later,

Speaker 1 I'm sitting here.

Speaker 1 He comes up to me and calls me out. He's like, you still owe me a jersey? I'm like, goddamn, today's the day you're getting it, brother.
That's how you know we're brothers.

Speaker 1 So he's got the not only the game, game-winning block kick jersey,

Speaker 1 I put the date on it. I told him how much I appreciate him being a teammate and a Super Bowl champion with me.
Oh, that's awesome. Ironically,

Speaker 1 it was the day I became the leading touchdown

Speaker 1 reception. Yeah.
Well, did you touch down reception? Do you participate or you tied Tony? I can't remember which one. I think I might have tied him.
I think you tied Tony. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Which I tied him on that day.

Speaker 1 so i uh i made sure to write that down there on him that's awesome that's a faith that's when i told that to him uh he was he was sitting there like what no no i can't i'm like it's in good hands

Speaker 1 it's yours brother dude that's crazy yeah this is how you know we're brothers i think i owe like 15 guys from the league oh a million still a million i think i still owe my guy hunter henry one man

Speaker 1 i don't know how your jersey is after games when i tried to like sign the jersey after games soaking what yeah it all runs and it bleeds like it never like That's a part of it. That's a part of it.

Speaker 1 It's a part of the magic, though.

Speaker 1 Yeah. That's how you know it's another part of the thing was worn and it was sweated on and it was, there was bloodshed.
What do we think was the better post-game gift to Leo?

Speaker 1 The jersey from you or a little cheeseburger? Andy G treating him to a cheeseburger? Hell yeah. Shit.
The entire Cheese Kingdom treats him to meals for the rest of his life, I bet you.

Speaker 1 I would say the cheeseburger from Andy Reid is all times is an all-time great um gift so i do want to say we're pumping up the end of this game and leo i do got to give the broncos credit i mean they play are you fantastic

Speaker 1 and they've been good

Speaker 1 sound their defense has been great all season long they came off of a little bit of a rough one the week before but they have been really their front seven flies around they do a great job of mixing up blitzes and just throwing guys at you left and right and playing fast 5'5

Speaker 1 dude their middle linebacker flies the fuck around. Yeah.
40. Their backers are super athletic, very intuned, very well coached.
Good instincts. Vance Joseph is

Speaker 1 playing. I told him afterwards, man, it's an honor going up against you, man, because I know it's one of the biggest challenges in the league, man.

Speaker 1 And yeah, who would have thought one of the best defenses in the league got a white corner? There's an outside corner. Yeah.

Speaker 1 21. Starter.
He hides it, though. He wears long sleeves.

Speaker 1 He hides hides it.

Speaker 1 Andy, I think he wears like the turtleneck, too. It's smart.
He hides it, yeah. Don't let him

Speaker 1 let him see the skin.

Speaker 1 Don't let him see the skin. Which one's the white guy again? I can't tell.
I can't tell.

Speaker 1 It's like camouflage. That's funny.
Oh, man. No, man.
Seriously. And honestly,

Speaker 1 he can play.

Speaker 1 Everybody over there, their safeties.

Speaker 1 I got covered by a linebacker for a play. I mean, they throw different looks at you.

Speaker 1 And Coach Payton. Yeah, of course.
John Payton's got those guys motivated and playing great ball on the offensive side, too. Bo Nicks, holy shit, that guy was fucking ripping it.

Speaker 1 Yeah, especially in the first half. They got up to an early.
Good fucking football, man. Well, the Broncos, we just talked about it.

Speaker 1 The Broncos did hold you guys a three of four field goals in the red zone. They were very stingy down there in particular, but they did let up one, and that was to the big Yeti himself.

Speaker 1 We talked about it a second ago where you tied Tony Gonzalez for the most touchdowns in Chiefs franchise history. Let's see this clip.

Speaker 1 And this was a fourth down, like ballsy kind of, it was early in the game. Was it 3, 14? I think it's six maybe quarter, yeah.
What is this route called?

Speaker 1 It's called to just get the fuck open and get your eyes around because you're wide ass open.

Speaker 1 This is the one time the Bronkers got a little botched up. We had guys going crossing, going left and right, a guy going vertical.

Speaker 1 And sometimes that just softens up the defense enough to, if the guy underneath just gets his eyes back, it's a touchdown.

Speaker 1 It's interesting to me is like, so you guys are in this bunch formation, and a lot of times you'll see teams throw these like quick screens and do like these like little follows into the end zone with the guy.

Speaker 1 But you guys do this, it's almost like a delayed follow where like they go out, they run their crossers, and you kind of act like you're going out and then come right back where you just were.

Speaker 1 Does that make sense at all? I don't know. No, I mean, you're right.
And what it, what it does is it puts uh because they're all banjoing this, they're trying to figure out who am I taking.

Speaker 1 They're they're playing a defense that's very similar to what you would play in the field. And they box the bunch, where they put five guys literally like a box.

Speaker 1 They put the corner high outside, the safety right over top, and he plays everything inside. The corner plays everything outside.

Speaker 1 The underneath nickel or the wheelbacker then plays the flat while the mics kind of sits in the

Speaker 1 inside and takes any short crossers. Well, this formation, we scored two touchdowns with D-hop on the backside.
So the mic flies left to try and take away the inside throw to D-hop.

Speaker 1 He's got to take the first crosser. Yeah.
And then Justin Ross does a great job of taking off the top. And I mean, at that point, there's a lot of space underneath for me to work.

Speaker 1 And Pat was right on time. That outside defender, he's got to respect you run into the flat.

Speaker 1 So when you come and follow that guy who takes the inside defender, there's nobody left to take you. I thought it was great.
It was a great design. And

Speaker 1 I'm

Speaker 1 like, no, no, no Gray's wide ass open here, too. So it was literally pick or poison by the pad right here.
Either way, awesome play on fourth down. Chiefs defense still balling out.

Speaker 1 I mean, I know they kind of got let up a little bit early. They gave up some leakage late on that last one.
They dragoned 16 points. And they had that field goal 19 points as an offense.

Speaker 1 And with a guy like Pat Mahomes back there, Coach Reed dialing up plays.

Speaker 1 We have the pieces to put up fucking points, man. And it is getting a little frustrating, but Chiefs Kingdom, stick with us, baby.

Speaker 1 We're going going to start putting fucking points up, and we're going to do it. We're going to do it in old Chiefs fashion.

Speaker 1 We're finding ways to win, which is always a good thing, and we're learning, and we're growing, and

Speaker 1 we're definitely, you know, rolling with the punches

Speaker 1 in terms of how teams are playing us,

Speaker 1 and we're growing with that. And I think that...

Speaker 1 Coach Nagy, Coach Reed, Coach Heck, the offensive staff that's really creating these game plans, they're putting us in great positions to have success.

Speaker 1 But it takes all 11, man. It takes all 11.
It takes the tight ends to be having their feet underneath them so that we score touchdowns instead of field goals. It takes

Speaker 1 everybody up front to be on the same page so that we're picking up blitzes. It takes everybody running their route to

Speaker 1 the discipline that Coach Reed teaches it so that guys get open faster and it's a clearer picture for Pat.

Speaker 1 Everybody's got to do their fucking job every single play.

Speaker 1 And I know I haven't done it. I got to make sure that as a leader on this team, I'm doing everything I can to help this team and to make this thing go.
Yeah. Love it.
LeBron's stat of the game.

Speaker 1 No other team in NFL history has won nine straight games in which they trailed in the second half, regular and postseason. You guys have trailed in all nine games? Is that what that stat is saying?

Speaker 1 That's not correct. This is true, Jason.
You're saying you guys have trailed in all of your nine lessons? Every fucking game. Wow.
In the second half.

Speaker 1 That's fucking mind-blowing, actually.

Speaker 1 that's not a lebron set that's pretty fucking it's not where you want to be as an offense jason and i know this and it is uh like i said it's frustrating it is frustrating uh knowing that uh we're not scoring enough points right now and uh it's what you go to work for baby you got enough pride to get it fixed you're gonna fucking get it fixed and uh i got my mindset on that well next week you guys have an opportunity to get it fixed you head back to buffalo how about this to take on bills mafia yeah last time you were in Buffalo, I was there, and it was a fun evening for everyone involved.

Speaker 1 Unless you're the Bills. Yeah, correct.
Unless you're Bill's Mafia, in which case, not the best end of the season for those guys, but they are rolling right now. Bills are looking good.
Josh Allen.

Speaker 1 He is playing fucking lights out right now. He's got his best touchdown to interception ratio in his whole career, Joe Brady.

Speaker 1 Joe Brady is really taking the offense to another level, it feels like. I think Josh is taking it up another another level, too.

Speaker 1 I think, yeah. I think he's doing an unbelievable job of taking care of the ball,

Speaker 1 mixing in when he's going to fucking be the bulldozer that he is, and then mixing up when he wants to run around guys. He's just, he's playing, he's playing great football.

Speaker 1 And, you know, when you get a juggernaut like him on the offensive side, you got to fucking put up points, man. So now more than ever, are we going to need to fucking score touchdowns? Yes.

Speaker 1 And I'm going to be locked in,

Speaker 1 locked in this week to try and make sure I'm accountable for my guys.

Speaker 1 Can't wait to to watch this one.

Speaker 1 I will not be shirtless this time around. I'll be watching this one from some comfortable area, but

Speaker 1 Let's get to a little bit of Eagles recap. It was a fun one.
Let's talk about a little bit of the birds out in LA. Yeah, baby.
Yeah, we'll talk about the birds and then get into your

Speaker 1 LA trip after this one. Eagles 34, Cowboys 6.
Jason, initial thoughts on the game. The fucking blowout.
I mean,

Speaker 1 the initial thoughts are that Dallas is just really bad right now. Yeah, the fighting Dallas is.
And that the Eagles are playing great football.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I mean, listen, I know it's, you know, Dallas isn't good right now, but this is what you're supposed to do against bad teams. You know, you're supposed to beat them 34-6.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 Philadelphia has really settled into who they are. It seems like they've playing much better.
We've all known that they've had the players to get it done.

Speaker 1 They have great talent on both sides of the ball. They're really starting to gel as units and play as a team.

Speaker 1 And I think that that's the thing that's been really fun to watch the last couple of weeks.

Speaker 1 they're figuring out their identity on offense and they're starting to really play to their strengths as a unit.

Speaker 1 And defensively, they've had a couple bad games, but outside of that, they've been good. They've been really good.
And as of late, the defensive line has picked it up. They're playing fantastic.

Speaker 1 I mean, obviously, everybody's criticizing the pass rush. When you play with a lead, the pass rush looks a lot better.
You put them in third and long situations. Keep them stay ahead of the sticks.

Speaker 1 You're going to get good opportunities to rush the passer. And I think that

Speaker 1 the Eagles right now are playing very, very well. It also helps helps me get five turnovers.
Yeah, how about that? Win the turnover battle, baby. The fucking win percentage skyrockets.

Speaker 1 Eagles now in first place in the NFC East with a fifth straight win. And Birds get their first win in Dallas since 2017, as Jason remembers.

Speaker 1 Quick stats from the game. Jalen went 14 of 20 for 202 yards and a tutty.
He's just playing so he has

Speaker 1 the answers to the test, man.

Speaker 1 It seems like he's ahead of the curve. And I just, it's fun watching him ball out right now because he's just, he's flawless right now.
His throws are right on point.

Speaker 1 Everything downfield seems to be in sync. A.J.
Brown had five catches for 109. A.J.
Brown's doing his goddamn thing, as he always does.

Speaker 1 Forced five cowboy turnovers, one interception, and four fumbles. Guys are fucking punching the ball.
And the Eagles pulled starters early in the fourth quarter. How about that?

Speaker 1 Yeah, Jalen is playing really good right now. I mean, I know he's the thing that he's really done since the buy is he's taking care of the football.
He's being very smart.

Speaker 1 I know he had the one interception to Diggs in the end zone where Diggs really sloughed off of his responsibility, made a good play. And then he had the fumble where I don't know what you do.

Speaker 1 Michael Parsons came around on a TE and was on top of him before he really had time to react. But, you know, he's been very smart with the football, but also still taking chances.

Speaker 1 It's hard to navigate that. How do I be aggressive and allow my guys to go make plays like A.J.
Brown, but also do that in a way that is smart and we're not putting the ball at risk.

Speaker 1 And I think that he's been really good. It's clear that him and Kellen have really started to build a chemistry as to what this offense is now.
You know, it looks like it has an identity. Hell yeah.

Speaker 1 They've turned into, they lean on Saquon. They allow, they run the football.
They're doing the play actions.

Speaker 1 They're doing a little bit more undercenter stuff and which lends yourself to some different play actions than you can do from the gun.

Speaker 1 And they've done some really good things the last three or four weeks. It's fun to watch right now.
It's a lot of fun to watch. Hell yeah.
Well,

Speaker 1 I don't get this next quote, but the biggest takeaways from the game: Jerry Jones is still at war with the sun.

Speaker 1 Yeah, there was a moment in the game, CeeDee Lamb running across the end zone, had a chance to have a wide open touchdown and could not see the ball.

Speaker 1 I'm not going to lie, playing in that stadium, I've fucking had that problem before.

Speaker 1 That fucking glare coming through that end zone in the afternoon is fucking ridiculous.

Speaker 1 Absolutely ridiculous.

Speaker 1 It's like the glass makes it fucking like spread more.

Speaker 1 It's like the sun is bigger and brighter than it's ever fucking been.

Speaker 1 And I mean, I get it, but obviously you try not to let those kind of things be an excuse. But holy shit, man, that's that, I mean, I get it.
I understand where he's coming from here.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I mean, there's some pictures right here. I mean, it is crazy how aggressive that sun is at that time of the day coming through that window.

Speaker 1 You'd think they put up like shades or something, but a lot of people. Look at that, dude.
Dude,

Speaker 1 why the fuck is it that bright? Yeah.

Speaker 1 And the funny thing is, I think somebody I saw somewhere, and I don't know if this is true or not, but I saw it on the internet, so I'm going to assume it's true, like everybody else does. Of course.

Speaker 1 I think they actually have shades because they do like concerts in there, and singers have said that

Speaker 1 it bothers them. So they have shades there.

Speaker 1 It's an option that they could legitimately just put the shades down and they just don't do it. We have to ask somebody that.
CD Lamb post-game comments

Speaker 1 on the sun at ATT Stadium. I couldn't see the ball.
I couldn't see the ball at all.

Speaker 1 The sun. Yeah.
All right. Nice.
Is he in favor of curtains? Probably.

Speaker 1 1,000% he is. Did you talk to Jerry Jones about that, Lamb? I mean, y'all doing my job right now.
All right.

Speaker 1 He'll hear it. He'll hear it.
I think Jerry's going to get that.

Speaker 1 There might be shades next game. Yeah.
I mean, knowing that, maybe in the fourth quarter, you make the other team in an afternoon game have to deal with that. You know what I mean?

Speaker 1 Have to look into the sun. See, Jerry Jones was asked about the possibility of putting up curtains to block out the sun at AT ⁇ T Stadium.

Speaker 1 He said, well, let's tear the damn stadium down and build another one. Are you kidding me? I'm saying the world knows where the sun is.

Speaker 1 You get to know that almost a year in advance, someone asked me about the sun. What about the sun? Where's the moon? I need to hear this

Speaker 1 to understand what the fuck teaches.

Speaker 1 Hey,

Speaker 1 listen. Are you kidding me?

Speaker 1 I hear a world you know where the sun is, dude. The world knows where the sun is.
Yeah, and so do architects and people that build stadiums.

Speaker 1 And usually you try to avoid the fact the sun might be directly in your receiver's eyes. Dude, whatever it is.

Speaker 1 I mean, at Arrowhead, there is.

Speaker 1 Is there a recording of this? I want to hear how Jerry says this. I can't repeat this and

Speaker 1 say it with the right inflection. There is 100% a time at Arrowhead Stadium where it's an afternoon game, and typically it has to be a noon game.

Speaker 1 You know, the sun's already kind of going down by 4 o'clock and getting underneath underneath the stadium at this point in the year.

Speaker 1 But there is a time, if there is a noon game, that in the first and second quarter, maybe even peeking into the third quarter, that you're going to get that sun

Speaker 1 coming across the field. So it's like if you have a hitch, like it doesn't necessarily go downfield or like

Speaker 1 how this is coming through the end zone in Dallas, but I think

Speaker 1 that you put the stadium so that... Yeah, have it going across the stadium.
Don't have it so that you're going to be looking right back at where the ball's going to be coming from 90% of the time.

Speaker 1 But it's going to look beautiful when the sun just glares through there in the afternoon.

Speaker 1 And it does look beautiful. I do love playing in Cowboy Stadium when that's happening.
It makes it feel

Speaker 1 cool

Speaker 1 until you miss it. You have to catch a football.

Speaker 1 Knowing that, I mean, we got to fucking block that thing out. I mean, have we played outfield before?

Speaker 1 I guess in Jerry's defense, you would think the Cowboys would know this is an issue and they could use it to their advantage, but I don't know. Yeah, where's the moon? Where's the moon?

Speaker 1 The old moon got in the way, coach. Said no one ever.

Speaker 1 Is there going to be like a solar eclipse one night? And like, Jerry's going to.

Speaker 1 I don't know. I think that this is one of those like Jerryisms where you got to hear him saying it for it to make sense.
Well, Jerry

Speaker 1 doubled down on his

Speaker 1 son theory Tuesday saying ATT Stadium was built as an indoor stadium with an outdoor feel. Okay.
Yep. People appreciate that kind of stuff.
They do. I do like to do that.

Speaker 1 I don't want to adjust the stadium for one reason. It's an advantage for us.
Okay.

Speaker 1 The stadium has been an advantage for the Cowboys. The team knows where the sun is during the game, and it won't change.
He's got a point. The Cowboys have been very good at home.

Speaker 1 We had that stat up earlier. The Eagles haven't beaten them since 2017, and I think it's pretty apparent the Eagles have had better teams than the Cowboys, and we have struggled down there.

Speaker 1 It's a difficult place to play for a multiplicity of factors. I've never noticed the sun as much, but I'm also not catching that many balls.
So maybe there's something there. I don't know.

Speaker 1 I do. That's my thing.
It's like, it's if you know where the sun's at, I mean, you can kind of like try and avoid that, I guess, or like maybe aware, like a tin advisor. I don't know.

Speaker 1 LeBron, stat of the game. Jalen Hurts is the third player in NFL history with 75 passing touchdowns and 50 rushing touchdowns so yeah

Speaker 1 that's both equally as impressive as it is pointless so

Speaker 1 because nobody cares about being the third player everyone wants to be the one player as we know the cowboys are struggling right now um they're in a free fall i'll actually be in dallas monday night and i'll get to see this hello sun this sun moon stuff firsthand and get be able to offer my perspective potentially afterwards though yeah i don't think it'll be jason can catch a catch an overroute in the sun.

Speaker 1 That's a good idea. That's a great idea.

Speaker 1 It's not a

Speaker 1 so I'll have to do it before.

Speaker 1 I think Ryan and Swag usually go on NFL live a couple, like three hours before the game. So that it should be right around that time.
Yeah. Let's

Speaker 1 go in there and try and catch it. Let's pre-record it.
Let's pre-record it. Let's pick out the exact time that this play happened and see if Jason can run full speed and catch

Speaker 1 a pass right now. I'm going to come back next week with a broken nose.
I know.

Speaker 1 He's going to crush me.

Speaker 1 Like Marsha Brady. Yeah.
Next week, the Eagles are taking on the Commanders on Thursday night football. That's right.
We got a good one, baby.

Speaker 1 A little divisional game, probably the biggest game in the division. Those two teams are playing very fucking well.
This is huge.

Speaker 1 Last time both teams had records more than one game above 500 entering the game was November 26, 2000. Wow.
How about that? 2,000. Damn.
Been a while. Who was on those 2,000 teams?

Speaker 1 2000 would have been Donovan. I don't know who would have been on Washington.
I mean, Clinton Portis, maybe. That's actually, that's a while ago.
Brad Johnson? Wow. How about that? Trick Shot Brad?

Speaker 1 He's all over the internet doing trick shot. Shout out to Brad Johnson, man.
Heck yeah.

Speaker 1 All right, let's keep this thing moving and get out of the house because Jason was loose as a goose over there on the west coast, baby. All righty, out of the house.
That's right.

Speaker 1 Out of the house is brought to you by Coke Zero Sugar, Tackle Game Day with the irresistible taste of Coke Zero Sugar. Is it the best Coke ever? Try it and decide.

Speaker 1 Jason stopped by Eagles Bar in L.A., like he said, to watch the birds. How was it, Jason? It was awesome.
We were staying in Santa Monica for the game, so we kind of hit up the local spots there.

Speaker 1 I think Garage might have been a little bit outside of that, but we ended up going to Britannia and the Garage Motor Club, I think is the full name of the bar. Nice.

Speaker 1 The whole weekend, though, was fun. It was a great time.
Did they have any garage beer in there? A lot of food. They did not have any garage beer.

Speaker 1 We're still trying to get over there on the West Coast.

Speaker 1 I talked to the guys about it. We're in the process.
We're still working that out. How was the L.A.
Eagles fans compared to the natives back in Philly?

Speaker 1 Obviously, they get to celebrate their Philadelphia fandom being together at these bars while

Speaker 1 Eagles games are happening or Sixers or all this stuff. So it's a fun moment for everybody to get together.
You're not around it constantly like you are in Philadelphia.

Speaker 1 So I think, you know, you could tell that this is much more of an event and a production for all the local guys and girls that live out that way. Yeah.
So it was cool.

Speaker 1 It was really awesome to be out there. I was trying to make it more of just like a papa and show up, like not be like a whole production, but it turned into a whole production.
But it was still fun.

Speaker 1 Everybody was super nice. The energy was crazy.
Obviously, they were beating the crap out of Dallas, which at least the good energy from Eagles fans. Yeah.
But yeah, it was a great time.

Speaker 1 Met a lot of really good people,

Speaker 1 had some stories, and enjoyed it. Love it.
Did you run into more Eagles fans or Rams fans out there?

Speaker 1 Honestly, I'm probably saying Eagles fans. Yeah, I mean, they're everywhere.
LA's weird. LA is such a transplant city that there's really fans from all over the country there.

Speaker 1 Like even the bar that I was saying, even before we went to the two Eagles bars.

Speaker 1 All the coasts have that, though. And I think

Speaker 1 LA and New York do have that die-hard fan base. It's harder in football because they haven't had that one team be there for the entire

Speaker 1 team. They're there and they left and they came back.

Speaker 1 Like the Rams left and came back. The Raiders have been in and out.
The Chargers now are there.

Speaker 1 So it's like the fans kind of, I don't know latch on to whoever's good at the time because it's fun to watch. And it's tough.

Speaker 1 And I'm sure it's been hard on a lot of the fan bases or a lot of the diehard football fans to just fully commit to a team when the ownership fucking yanks them out of there every 10 to 15 years.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I'll also say that I went to two Eagles bars. So obviously I saw a ton of Eagles fans.
Like there was

Speaker 1 at the Rams game, there were tons of Rams fans in the stadium. Yeah, Rams house, baby.
They definitely get it rocking for sure.

Speaker 1 But the Big Dean's bar down there, the Giants bar, like there's people from all over the country in LA. And that was one of the cool things is like, there's just, it's a melting pot, right?

Speaker 1 You're seeing people from all over the country, all over the world. It's the land of opportunity.
There's a lot of business that brings people together out there. It was fun.

Speaker 1 I enjoyed my time there greatly. Had a lot of great food.
Jason, you got into a push-up contest. I did.
Rocking the Gold's Gym tank that you got.

Speaker 1 We're out

Speaker 1 at Ram's house, and

Speaker 1 I was impressed, man. 54.
I'm not going to lie. I did not think I was going to get 54.
I'm 50. I'm very happy with this project.

Speaker 1 There's no way. My shoulders would snap.

Speaker 1 My shoulders would snap. You started, I mean, I would have, you did better than me.
I would have, I would have went to a knee way before this.

Speaker 1 You fought through and you dug deep and you could tell you were grinding them out.

Speaker 1 Yeah, and I, and I got my ass kicked by a bunch of Navy SEALs who are much better at push-ups and a lot of things than I am.

Speaker 1 But this was awesome to be out there on Veterans Day with a bunch of guys that had served for this country for a number of years and to have some fun like this.

Speaker 1 It was a really, really.

Speaker 1 cool experience and just an awesome way to, you know, pay tribute. The whole evening was paying tribute to people in our military and armed services.
It's awesome.

Speaker 1 I think it's one of the best things the league does. Yeah,

Speaker 1 the salute to service week is always like. It's the entire month of November.
It changes depending on what teams have home games and when they specifically have their salute to service game and stuff.

Speaker 1 But it's the reason why I wear the Army Fatigue green gloves throughout the week. And I typically try and get at least one pair to

Speaker 1 somebody in in uniform

Speaker 1 or afterwards find somebody that's served or is serving now. So it's awesome.
And we always pay our respects to those that are serving this beautiful country.

Speaker 1 And we appreciate you guys forever for it, man. Absolutely.
What was the guy in the black doing? Dude, I don't know. This dude served like how many, I forget how many years Seth was in the military.

Speaker 1 Dude, he's doing like the worm.

Speaker 1 I have no idea if he's got bad hips, bad shoulders. Maybe that's a technique.
All I know is doing 93 of whatever the fuck he's doing. I couldn't have done 93 of it.
That's all I know.

Speaker 1 It ain't cheating. It ain't, yeah, whatever it is, he's doing them.
93 is still a lot in one minute, and he killed it. So I'm happy for him.

Speaker 1 All right. Anything else you want to mention this trip? No, it was just fun.
You know, went to a lot of local spots. Like I said, had a bunch of great food.
What does this burger place? I don't know.

Speaker 1 It was a fun. It was a very, very fun weekend in L.A.
Ran into Brandon one of the nights, which is always good. Uh, did not see Jets Jake.
He did not make the time for me, unfortunately.

Speaker 1 Yeah, had a, had a good time. Jets Jake is

Speaker 1 too busy. He's on social all the time.
He doesn't leave the house except to walk his dog. It's a tough life for Jets Jake right now.

Speaker 1 He's also in depression with what's happening with the Jets right now. It's tough.
It's tough. We're actually going to have a video going up on some out-of-the-house stuff.

Speaker 1 So we'll see how that turns up. Nice.

Speaker 1 Chase, I'm just so proud of you.

Speaker 1 Of what, Travis? For getting out of the house. You're such a home.
Somebody. Dude, it was a fun time.
You're thriving right now. You're glowing.
Look at you. I love meeting people.

Speaker 1 That's what I like being out of the house. I don't.
This is the first time I've ever heard of that. No, I've always liked the people part.
It's the walking and moving part that I don't like. As much.

Speaker 1 All right. Yeah, that does it for out of the house.
Brought to you by Coke Zero Sugar. Let's keep this thing moving.
What else is going on in the NFL? Like Jared Goff bringing the buns stats back.

Speaker 1 That's right.

Speaker 1 An incredible Buns stat in the Lions win over Houston.

Speaker 1 Became the third quarterback in the last 30 years to win a game while throwing five interceptions. How crazy is that?

Speaker 1 As a fellow Buns stats representative, Jared, I am proud of you for finding a way to fucking win. That's right.
God damn it, it is hard in the NFL. Shout out to Jake, what is it, Jake Bates?

Speaker 1 Two big field goals at the end. Oh, yeah.
Yeah,

Speaker 1 the actual game. That was a fun game.
That was a fun game to watch. We were all watching it after hanging out, watching that game, and

Speaker 1 we were screaming,

Speaker 1 we want six. We want six.
And then we weren't talking about touchdowns. We wanted to see that guy throw the six interception and still find a way to win.

Speaker 1 We wanted that button stat to be way more epic than it already was.

Speaker 1 Shout out to Golf and the Lions, though, man. Those guys are fucking playing hard.
They got a big one this week, too. Did you hear Dan Campbell speak into existence the interception?

Speaker 1 Coming out of half, he's talking to the reporter. You know, they do the little on-field stuff, and the half starts, right? Houston's starting with the ball.

Speaker 1 First play of the second half. And Campbell said, we just got to keep our head down, get a couple things go our way, get a couple turnovers.
And as soon as he says it, interception for the Lions.

Speaker 1 Nice.

Speaker 1 Talk about speaking it into existence. Fighting Dan Campbell's, baby.
Yeah, baby. International games.

Speaker 1 We had the final international game in Germany between the Panthers and the Giants, an absolute barn burner of the two and seven teams.

Speaker 1 After Goodell said, the league is looking to play upwards of eight games outside of the United States in 2025, including Ireland. Oh,

Speaker 1 NFL has also announced it will play again. Yeah, that sounds super fun.
Dude, I am in on all of this. A little Dublin.
Where do you think it is? You think it's Dublin? It's got to be Dublin.

Speaker 1 It's going to be Dublin. I would assume.
Yeah, it's got to be Dublin. Get a little Guinness Factory in.
NFL has already announced that it will play a game in the renovated stadium in Madrid. Yeah.

Speaker 1 That will return to

Speaker 1 the Estadio Azteca in Mexico City for the first time since 2022 when we played.

Speaker 1 And you love that, right? It was a nice mile long walk in the locker room. Yeah, it was sweet though.
It was fun.

Speaker 1 I just remember you talking about how long the walk was from the locker room to the field. It was.
It wasn't going down the ramp. It was coming up from half.

Speaker 1 And you're just like, why the fuck didn't we just stay on the field? Yeah.

Speaker 1 But Mexico City was an awesome, awesome place to play the aztec was so lit and uh there's a lot of history in that place yeah and it makes you it makes you feel like you're you're in a bunch of just like a crazed environment for competition i love that that's awesome and the league is expected to be back in brazil and germany in 2025 so um is this too much is this too much flying doing not to me that's what i'm saying man send me to the moon i don't play anymore like send me to the moon for me it's just a reason to go to a fun place to watch a football game.

Speaker 1 Are they traveling too much or going to Dublin, Ireland? Like, not if I get to go to Dublin, Ireland. I'm all on board with this.
Well, this is what you did when I played in London last. Yeah.

Speaker 1 I came and watched you guys. You came out and then you went to the game.
It was our bye week. I was going to Ireland.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 It was our bye week, and I went out and you guys are playing, what, Detroit? Detroit. Yeah.
Yeah. Found a way to get a dough.
My guy Alex Smith had a great game. Yeah, I am all in.

Speaker 1 I'm all in on all these international games. As long as most of the Eagles games are still in Philadelphia, I'm all in on all the international games.

Speaker 1 I love it I love the international games maybe get one over in Australia though let's go the other way they've been talking about that for a while I want I was curious that he didn't mention Australia we've been going east let's go west well I think you can go either way you can go either east or west you'll run into it I think the Aussies would fucking get so rowdy playing one of those rugby uh stadiums or one of those Australian football league stadiums

Speaker 1 yeah those things get fucking rocking so I can only imagine yeah New Zealand is a different country, but it is

Speaker 1 kind of the same, though. I said Australia or New Zealand or New Zealand.
Okay, okay, all right, my bad.

Speaker 1 How do you know? I'm just sorry, my dude. I mean, I used to think it was the same thing.
It's pretty much the same. All right, my dude.
Moving on to Steelers against the Commanders.

Speaker 1 Obviously, we just talked about the Eagles have a tough matchup against the Commanders this week. The Commanders lost

Speaker 1 to the Steelers this past week in a very close game

Speaker 1 that came off to an offsides jump. Came down to it, yeah.
Watch this clip. They come up fourth and one.

Speaker 1 I mean, you know they're not going to run a play at the 50-yard line because if they don't get it, you're basically guaranteeing a field goal. I mean, you don't know that.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I mean, we're definitely running a play, but you know that the chance of them running a heart, you can't jump offsides. You kind of know that there's a chance they're going to do this heart out.

Speaker 1 That's tough. Gosh.

Speaker 1 That's tough. My man, Isaac Sayamalu, signaling first down.

Speaker 1 Russ is happy. He's doing it.
How could he not be, man? He's doing the

Speaker 1 Mr. Unlimited dance.
I think that was actually the put that shit on dance. Oh, okay.
Steelers coach Mike Tomlin on getting the commanders to jump off sides on a clutch fourth down.

Speaker 1 The reporter, I assume you were not going to go for it there on the fourth down. Mike Tomlin, we'll never know, will we? You know, I am a degenerate.

Speaker 1 I am a degenerate. God damn, that's good.

Speaker 1 Yeah, just got to keep on their toast. You never know.
Hey, Travis, which way were you supposed to go on this? We'll never know.

Speaker 1 I think the more I think about it, you probably do go for it on fourth and one there because there's a lot of time left. And if you get it, the game's over.
How confident do you feel? Yeah.

Speaker 1 We'll never know what Mike was going to do. That's for sure.
Yeah. Is it hard not to fall start? No, it is not hard.

Speaker 1 So, this is what happens when some of the producers read the questions, guys. They said, is it hard to not fall start? I don't know.
Is it hard to not fall start for the offense? No, it's it's

Speaker 1 if it is the play that they're talking about where they're not going to run a play, it is incredibly easy not to fall start.

Speaker 1 You're actually incredibly dumb if you do false start because there's no play. That being said, I have fall started not knowing what the play was before,

Speaker 1 never in a game, but in practice. And when you rep this one time, I was like, oh, Doug's like, what are you doing, man? There's no play.
And I'm like, yeah, I don't know why that just happened.

Speaker 1 I'm stupid for that. And Doug was like,

Speaker 1 I was like, I'm really dumb for that. And Doug was like, we do that, they're going to jump.

Speaker 1 I was just letting you know I wasn't locked in. And if we catch them not locked in, that's what's going to happen.

Speaker 1 I think the more applicable question is, is it hard to not jump as a defensive player? And probably not. I mean, typically everybody is reminding each other on both sides in this situation.

Speaker 1 I mean, you would hope so.

Speaker 1 Maybe the commanders didn't. Didn't signal it in.

Speaker 1 Like any situation like that, you're typically telling them, DJ, or like, dude, do not jump on the snap. Like, it is okay to be a titch off of it, but maybe not.
Maybe they just want to all in.

Speaker 1 I don't know. Does the defense know you're not running a play? I mean, they might have had, that's the thing about this.

Speaker 1 They can go with a hard count and try and jump them off sides, but also have a play designed after that.

Speaker 1 I still got to think that they were probably not going to run a play there. They still had a couple timeouts.

Speaker 1 So they probably were going to try and draw them off sides, then take the timeout and decide whether they were going to either punt or

Speaker 1 go for it. Or just fucking do a QB sneak right there.
They're not doing a QBC. You know how I know that? Nope.
The quarterback's feet.

Speaker 1 The quarterback, when they do quarterback sneaks, gets a foot behind him. He's got even feet.
He's not running quarterback sneak right there.

Speaker 1 He could change him up, though, on the second cadence, I guess, I suppose. There you go.

Speaker 1 Poopgate. Woo! Lions linebacker James Houston went viral this weekend for allegedly shitting his pants on the field.
Yeah, stop. This is rough.
This is why I hate white pants. My.

Speaker 1 This is one of the reasons I hate white pants.

Speaker 1 I would like to say that I have not ever done this. And luckily, I haven't been out there during a game and done this before.

Speaker 1 But listen, sometimes, you know, you're exerting a lot of effort on the field. And if you get caught in the wrong type of gut situation.
No, dude, what do you mean?

Speaker 1 If he said it right here, hey, yo, I sat on some Gatorade too. Come on.

Speaker 1 Dude, Travis.

Speaker 1 Travis, you and I both know he ain't sit on no Gatorade. Not in that exact specific spot.
We all know what that is. And he has nothing to be ashamed of.
I am here to have your back, James.

Speaker 1 I have done this.

Speaker 1 Dude, I did this before a game once.

Speaker 1 And I felt, you know, like

Speaker 1 when you shart and you know that there's a possibility something just came out, but you're not certain? And I remember turning. You got to get off the field.

Speaker 1 I turned, and I'm not going to announce names. I turned to my buddy, my O-line friend, and I was like, hey, can you check me? Because I think I might have just shit myself, right?

Speaker 1 And he checks me. He says, you're good.
I go out for warm-ups, do the whole warm-ups. Lane comes up to me after warm-ups.
He's like, hey, you got shit all up and down your pants right now.

Speaker 1 So in between warm-ups and the start of the game,

Speaker 1 I keep my shoulder pads on, take off all of my under, like all of my lower half,

Speaker 1 get in the shower and showering. Oh, that's funny as fuck.
I felt that nasty.

Speaker 1 Dude, I was, it was disgusting. Yeah, I got it.

Speaker 1 But yeah, this is not the first time it's happened. I know of many players that this happened to.
It could potentially be Gatorade.

Speaker 1 I think it's probably highly likely it was a shark that went awry. Because it's just this white pants, man, it's risky.
It's a risky situation. You got to.
You got to eat right.

Speaker 1 You got to take your vitamins. Make sure that gut health is right.
All right. I'm done talking about shitting yourself.
All right. Coach quote of the week

Speaker 1 comes from Saints Interim. Interim.
Interim head coach. Got to win.
Saints big wins. Yeah.
Darren Rizzi, after the win against the Falcons, I'm a pretty open guy. I go

Speaker 1 to the bathroom. This is how my day started.
I clogged the toilet. I'm like, this is going to be a crappy day.
Pun intended.

Speaker 1 Guy got fired up. He clogged the toilet.
Yeah. I mean, listen, he's an open guy.
He's an open book. Not afraid to admit anything.
Yeah. It's just another list in a category.

Speaker 1 Sounds like he was patting himself on the back there. It's like he's letting them know, hey, I'm a man.
I take big shits.

Speaker 1 I don't need no modium.

Speaker 1 I'm going to fucking clog this shit up.

Speaker 1 You better have some good pipes.

Speaker 1 Oh, my gosh.

Speaker 1 Yeah, what is it about interim coaches, man? It feels like they always win their first game. It's like routine.
I think it's a mixture of teams motivated to play harder.

Speaker 1 You know, I think everybody, nobody wants to see anybody get fired, but at the same time, everybody wants to kind of be there for whoever's job it is to step in.

Speaker 1 You know, it's not an easy thing to do. And I think sometimes that can kind of circle the bandwagons for for teams.

Speaker 1 On top of that, you know, you see one guy get fired, you see the headman get fired at that. Shit, everybody's on fucking notice, no doubt.

Speaker 1 Everyone's a little bit more dialed in, a little bit more locked in. And who knows

Speaker 1 what other motivating factors were going on in the building or who they got back or things like that. But maybe even a switch up a scheme,

Speaker 1 a little bit more unknown on what the play calls are going to be. Yeah.
All that plays into part for sure. And that does it for both topics.

Speaker 1 Moving on to no dumb questions because

Speaker 1 there's no such thing as dumb questions, just dumbass people answering some dumb questions. Hey, what? No dumb questions is brought to you by our friends at Burger King.
Man, that whopper was so good.

Speaker 1 It was pretty damn good. I'm not going to lie.
That sesame bun. Yeah, it's got my mouth watering right now.
I'm kind of hungry myself.

Speaker 1 I might go get a burger for dinner now, little Burger King whopper. First, no dumb question.
How hard is it really to make O-line position, to move O-line positions up?

Speaker 1 Like when a right guard moves the left guard, sometimes announcers act like it's no big deal, but sometimes they act like it's the most impressive thing an NFL player can do.

Speaker 1 I imagine it's like driving on the other side of the road. I would say it's a little bit harder than driving on the other side of the road.

Speaker 1 Some players are very good and natural at switching sides and are ambidextrous.

Speaker 1 It's probably It's more similar to probably switch hitting on like a in baseball, but hitting a baseball is just way harder. What it really comes down to is

Speaker 1 you're using your feet in a different stance and stagger than you do on the other side of the ball. And maybe more importantly, your hands have to be used differently.

Speaker 1 Like your inside hand placement is obviously with a different hand and that has a lot to do with how you pass set and your relationship with the defender.

Speaker 1 So I would say it is definitely hard, but some guys

Speaker 1 are very good at it and it's not difficult at all. They can go back and forth.
A lot of it is player specific.

Speaker 1 some guys are awful when you try and have them play another side they just can't figure it out quickly and some guys can switch over like it's nothing and that's one of the reasons why backup guys that can play both sides and move and play either left or right the tweeners it's it's a valuable thing to have we had a few of those guys yeah this always reminds me when i'm talking about this to the pro bowl back when you actually used to play the game the biggest issue all week was always that

Speaker 1 all of the pro bowl tackles that made it were always left tackles, and somebody had to go play right.

Speaker 1 And nobody wanted to play right because it was a different, like your right leg's back instead of your left, you're using your hands different.

Speaker 1 They all didn't want to play it, and it would devolve into the youngest guy with the least Pro Bowls always had to play right.

Speaker 1 And he would be getting his ass kicked every game, and we'd have to slide it over to him because that was the only problem with the pass rush. So it's definitely a thing.

Speaker 1 It's definitely hard, but for some guys, it's easier than others. I would assume that it's like driving on the other side of the road.

Speaker 1 All right. There we go.
And then at

Speaker 1 Weetay's version, if you could pick one article of clothing to wear for the rest of your life, what would it be?

Speaker 1 Interesting. That's a tough question.
Where am I at in the world? Yeah. And what is, like, does this mean if I pick a shirt, I can't wear pants?

Speaker 1 I'm assuming this is like what outfit, or do I have to wear like suspenders? Because I got to get like like top and bottom

Speaker 1 cover again. This is there's not enough to this question.
Let's go, let's assume it's outfit. Let's say, let's say you get shoes, a lower half, and an upper half.
That's what you get.

Speaker 1 Again, where am I at? Well, this is the whole point. You don't know.
You only get to choose it from, and it has to be ready to adapt to any place that you might be. All right.

Speaker 1 Well, then, I'll go, I'll go hoodie and

Speaker 1 sweatpants

Speaker 1 and

Speaker 1 some

Speaker 1 Jordans.

Speaker 1 Hoodie sweats.

Speaker 1 Jordans, I can do actually, not Jordans. I got to go like combat boots.
I was about to say, you can't go Jordan's. You can't go Jordans.
Combat boots. Combat boots.
All-purpose.

Speaker 1 And that's why they're combat boots. They got to be ready for everything.
If it starts to get really hot,

Speaker 1 roll those fuckers up.

Speaker 1 Shorten those sleeves up. Maybe tuck the, get rid of the hoodie.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 Put it in your fucking

Speaker 1 pouch. Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
You just cut the hoodie, put it in your sweatshirt pouch, though. Well, if you cut it, then it's ruined forever.

Speaker 1 No, then you put it in your pouch, and when you need it again, you just put it right up. So it's a zippered hoodie.
No, you just. One of those zippered ones or the hoodie.

Speaker 1 You just tuck it underneath the

Speaker 1 way.

Speaker 1 I would go wool clothing because it's antimicrobial. So I don't have to worry about it getting as dirty as cotton or synthetic materials.
Okay.

Speaker 1 A decent medium thickness wool so that I'm pretty warm most of the time and I'm trying to stay out of cold climates.

Speaker 1 I would go with a decent medium wool sweat because it's breathable so that when it's hot out, you still get some breathability. And when it's cold out, it still retains some

Speaker 1 insulatory properties. And then I would go wool socks and I would go hiking boots.
So that you're kind of good to do whatever you want them.

Speaker 1 You are going to be one smelly motherfucker because wool, wool everything is going to be hot as fuck no no it breathes it breathes no it doesn't wool is a known breathable breathable jason yeah you wear wool in 80 degree weather you are sweating your ass off well just roll the pant legs up you're still gonna

Speaker 1 shit's on your back and your chest

Speaker 1 if it's on your shoulders you're gonna start to sweat what did you say you were going for pants sweatpants i'm just going sweatpants so how is that you don't think that's going to be hot in 80 degrees no not if you turn it up not if i roll it up.

Speaker 1 But if you got the wool, the wool breathes better than cotton. Are you going cotton sweatpants? No.
What are you going? Going

Speaker 1 pants everywhere. We're going like

Speaker 1 all right. That does it for no dumbass questions.
