Speaker 43 Yeah,
Speaker 43 far and mighty.
Speaker 1 Welcome to Part of My Take. Today is Friday, December 1st.
Speaker 45 1st.
Speaker 46 And is Dak Prescott the NFL MVP?
Speaker 21 I was about to say, congratulations to the Dallas Cowboys for winning the Super Bowl.
Speaker 47 The Super Bowl?
Speaker 48 The Super Bowl and the Super Bowl.
Speaker 12 I think the Cowboys.
Speaker 48 I don't know if I'm going to go that far.
Speaker 21 This is perfect. This is perfect because Dallas fans are so confident right now, as they should be.
Speaker 21
You're a good team, but you're basically the same team that you've been or that you were last year at least. Yeah.
Mike McCarthy is the same guy that he was last year.
Speaker 21
He almost blew that into the game thing. Yes.
He almost did with that pass to the end zone, stopped the clock, gave him a lot more time.
Speaker 21
That would have been something we would be discussing right now if it didn't work out. But the Cowboys are good enough.
Like, CeeDee Lamb is a fucking beast, and they're good enough offensively.
Speaker 21
Their defense came up big when it mattered, even though there were no punts tonight. They didn't force a single punt, and they didn't have to punt.
The Cowboys played a good game, but I do love it.
Speaker 21 It feels, I'm getting excited since I can't root for the Commanders to do anything special this year.
Speaker 21 I am finding myself just rooting more and more for the expectation for Dallas Cowboys fans to get higher and higher and higher and then end in ultimate heartbreak.
Speaker 28 But hold on a second.
Speaker 17 You just said they're the same team as last year.
Speaker 52 Dak Prescott's playing way better than last year.
Speaker 21 He is better than last year.
Speaker 15 He is playing out of his mind.
Speaker 53 Like, and I know he probably won't win the MVP because the MVP is going to go to the one seed.
Speaker 17 They'd have to jump the Eagles.
Speaker 19 Jalen Hurts is also playing very good football.
Speaker 54 I'm just saying, Dak Prescott,
Speaker 20 I mean, he's playing phenomenal, phenomenal football. Hank, you're a Cowboys fan.
Speaker 17 I saw your friend is a Cowboys fan. Yep.
Speaker 28
Tiff. Tiff.
Shout out to Tiff. Dak is awesome right now.
Speaker 53 Like, there's just no way to, like, that's just what he's taking care of the football.
Speaker 60 Last year, he finished the season.
Speaker 62 I know he was injured for a few games, but he finished the season 23 touchdowns, 15 interceptions. This season through week 13, he's 23 touchdowns, six interceptions.
Speaker 64 He's having an awesome, awesome year, and he's up there for MVP if they can figure out a way.
Speaker 67 I mean, it all sets up now because if the Niners can somehow beat the Eagles on Sunday, next week becomes a colossal game between the Eagles and Cowboys.
Speaker 21 We're going to find out how many points the bank is worth. That's what we're going to find out.
Speaker 3 But yeah, the Cowboys, like, offense is humming.
Speaker 18 They have so many weapons.
Speaker 22 It feels like they finally, like, last year, a couple years ago, like, it felt like they didn't have the complimentary weapons.
Speaker 52 You know, now Brandon Cooks, Brandon Cooks is
Speaker 21
back. I also think a couple years ago, ago, they were in this pattern where they had to run Ezekiel Elliott more than they should have.
Yeah.
Speaker 21
Because Jerry was paying him so much money, and Jerry's like, hey, this is my star running back. Let's give him the ball.
And it became pretty clear, at least last year, that...
Speaker 21
Pollard was a better option for him at running back when he was in the game. Yeah.
And so they were like forcing the ball to Ezekiel. Now they don't have to worry about that anymore.
Speaker 21 Their wide receivers are dynamic. They've got a good tight end.
Speaker 2 Yeah, Jake Ferguson is awesome.
Speaker 4 He was a beast tonight.
Speaker 23 The Seahawks middle of their defense was just getting gashed.
Speaker 72 And so I do want to talk about the Seahawks in a second.
Speaker 14 The one thing that would make me nervous, and maybe you can just say, hey, that was a little off-night,
Speaker 64 weird setup.
Speaker 17 Their defense, the Cowboys' defense, which they have been, you know, that has been the thing that they've been resting on for a couple years now, did not look great tonight.
Speaker 17 And it was against, you know, if you want to look through the Cowboys season, you could make the fraud case and the fact that they have really kicked the shit out of some bad teams and some bad quarterbacks.
Speaker 18 And when they face good quarterbacks, their defense does not look the same.
Speaker 4 That did happen tonight.
Speaker 17 I mean, Gino had a good night.
Speaker 21 I'm not making the fraud case against the Cowboys.
Speaker 66 I think the Cowboys are... Someone could.
Speaker 21 I think the Cowboys are a great team.
Speaker 21 They're one of the teams that could win the Super Bowl right now. I'm just saying, like, I'm putting a lot of my sweat equity and my mental well-being in the fact that
Speaker 21 I'm just imagining a world where they have a very heartbreaking end of their season.
Speaker 73 Oh, that will most likely happen.
Speaker 74 The cowboys feel different this year just in the fact that dak prescott is playing a lot better and he has to prove it still but he is playing better than he was last year and it doesn't it feels like you know if he can keep elevating his game who knows max you're you're shaking your head this is uh you you blame this loss on me uh yeah i mean you changed the whole vibes of the game but that's because i i i had told him he had to come into the gambling cave because we were watching the game in the gambling cave and we would just hear max for people who think that max is doing a shtick it's not because he was sitting in the editor's bay where guys were working, and we would hear him from around the corner just screaming like, that's a flag, and shit like that.
Speaker 18 So I was like, hey, you got to come sit in the gambling cave.
Speaker 29 And then I don't think the Seahawks scored again.
Speaker 77 I don't think they were the Seahawks winning when you did that?
Speaker 78 Yeah.
Speaker 28 Yeah.
Speaker 74 And I don't think there was a positive play for the Seahawks.
Speaker 76 No, I don't think so either.
Speaker 79 I don't think so either. Damn.
Speaker 36 That's so messed up you did that.
Speaker 74 Well, and then Big Cat tried to give me the whole, he was like, oh, so you think that that really affected the game
Speaker 74 by you sitting in here rather than sitting out there? And then I actually defended you, Hank, and I was like, Yeah, no, it didn't. Didn't you freak out at Hank for pulling
Speaker 31 the died last week?
Speaker 60 Obviously, it affected the game. I agree with you.
Speaker 65 No, that's not a problem. Yes, I do.
Speaker 69 But no, but I know that it did.
Speaker 73 And then I asked Taylor Luan, who was sitting there, was like, Did you ever, when you were playing in the NFL, were you ever like, man, it feels like someone switched their position on the couch right now?
Speaker 37 Max.
Speaker 37 That rep was bad.
Speaker 49 Max.
Speaker 30 Yeah, did someone just, did someone just put on their lucky underwear?
Speaker 24 What the fuck just happened?
Speaker 15 It affected the game.
Speaker 76 It never affected the fucking Cowboys.
Speaker 64 The Seahawks are in trouble.
Speaker 73 They played well tonight.
Speaker 3 And that was like, it felt like this was their kind of like, hey, this is our last stand.
Speaker 2 This is our best effort.
Speaker 21 I don't know that they're in trouble. This might be a moral loss for the Seahawks.
Speaker 12 Well, no, they're in trouble.
Speaker 14 They're in trouble in the fact that...
Speaker 21 A statement loss for them.
Speaker 17 They have to play their next two games are against the Niners and the Eagles, and they can't keep losing and make the playoffs.
Speaker 21 I think what tonight's the win games with the playoffs.
Speaker 21 What tonight's game proved more than anything is that Thursday night football whoops ass as long as the teams that are playing also played on a Thursday the week beforehand.
Speaker 21 And if the refs decide to throw a thousand flags to make sure every offensive possession gets all the way to a touchdown, there were a ton of flags today, but there was some good offensive football that was played.
Speaker 80 There was
Speaker 21 DK had a hell of a game
Speaker 21 when he caught that first pass and took off, and they said that he reached a speed of like 22.6 something miles per hour. Yeah.
Speaker 21 Maybe it's no, it's 22.2 miles per hour, which is 0.2 miles per hour faster than Tyreek Hill has been with the ball this year.
Speaker 21
And for DK to be faster than Tyreek Hill, despite the fact that he outweighs him by what? Do you think 50 pounds? Yeah. Is insane.
It's insane that that's the fastest dude in the eighth film.
Speaker 18 He was little boying Duron Bland.
Speaker 21 He was. Yeah.
Speaker 77 Deron Bland got sign language.
Speaker 85 He was smoked in sign language as well.
Speaker 21
Gang signs? I don't know. No, I mean, Roderick Dell will probably be like, that's a gang sign.
I'm going to find it.
Speaker 77 No, he learned sign language.
Speaker 21 Yeah, which is pretty cool. If you're going to learn sign language to talk shit on your opponent, I respect that.
Speaker 71 The Seahawks are in trouble, though.
Speaker 86 You've got to learn it.
Speaker 17 They're 6-6, and they have to play the Eagles and the Niners.
Speaker 87 Yeah.
Speaker 21 Not a great couple games coming.
Speaker 12 Anything could happen, though.
Speaker 83 Anything could happen.
Speaker 3 It did feel like this was like, hey, we're going to put everything into this game.
Speaker 18 We've got to win this game.
Speaker 27 We can't keep losing these games.
Speaker 25 They're on a three-game losing streak.
Speaker 58 So, yeah, it feels like it could spiral a little more having to go to at 49ers next week.
Speaker 21
Yeah, I could see that. But also, like, the Seahawks, they find a way to win weird games.
They do. If they can drag you into the mud and make you play a really strange game, they can beat you.
Speaker 47 Yeah.
Speaker 34 I don't know.
Speaker 21 I was not impressed.
Speaker 21 I was not impressed with that play call at the end where they tried to run the screen on fourth down.
Speaker 36 Or they just didn't block the one guy you have to block.
Speaker 28 Yeah.
Speaker 17 Like Micah Parsons.
Speaker 90 You have to.
Speaker 64 I You could actually run a play where it's like, hey, we're not going to block anyone else except Micah Parsons, and it might work.
Speaker 49 Yeah.
Speaker 21 I think in theory, a screen could work if you're just banking on them sending everybody at you, and then you could get a big chunk of yardage off that screenplay.
Speaker 21 The problem with running a screen there is that Micah Parsons is faster than almost every single other edge defender in the NFL.
Speaker 21 So if you don't even chip him or get in his way, make him take a half step to the outside, he's going to get in Geno's face. Yes.
Speaker 78 Yeah.
Speaker 29 That was a sad way to end the game.
Speaker 17 Anything else before we get to week 13?
Speaker 18 Oh, thank you to everyone.
Speaker 20 Spotify wrapped.
Speaker 57 That's always cool.
Speaker 58 I mean, it's always like crazy to see how much time people spend with us because we're fucking idiots.
Speaker 21 There were some insane numbers this year.
Speaker 21 Yeah, everyone there.
Speaker 15 I appreciate everyone.
Speaker 20 Even if you're not listening on Spotify, if you're listening on Apple, if you're listening on Amazon, if you're listening on Google, if you're listening on YouTube, we love you all.
Speaker 21 It was very humbling to see all that.
Speaker 21 This many people spend this much time listening to my thoughts and and and really really that many people are like super well versed in all the weird shit that's going on with this podcast.
Speaker 21 Yeah, um, it is it's it blows my mind to think about it.
Speaker 81 Thank you to everybody.
Speaker 69 Every year we know Spotify raps is coming and every year I'm like, oh my god, like this is crazy.
Speaker 64 That's a lot.
Speaker 17 I think the maybe the one of the good things about this show is that at the end of the day, it does kind of still feel like our lives haven't changed that much.
Speaker 25 It feels like we're just sitting with our friends and talking.
Speaker 23 So when we have these moments where it's like, oh shit, the numbers are that big, it's always like, damn.
Speaker 77 100 countries.
Speaker 23 Like, you could tell me no one's listening to the show.
Speaker 75 I'd be like, I'll keep doing it.
Speaker 21 100 countries? Yeah.
Speaker 92 100 countries?
Speaker 61 What was the craziest country?
Speaker 77 Did I not send you guys this? No.
Speaker 21 Was it an email? Because if it was, I did not read it.
Speaker 21 Hank's been sending off a lot of emails recently. You're the email king of this office.
Speaker 71 Someone stole some golf clubs?
Speaker 77 Ah, no.
Speaker 66 Oh. Hank sent an email being like, we're about to go through the tapes.
Speaker 17 That was just a a
Speaker 93 smoke out.
Speaker 77 It ended up being in an ironic twist of fate, the control room person who needed to go through the tapes.
Speaker 81 Interesting.
Speaker 36 Had taken them? It was one club.
Speaker 77 There's a couple clubs that were missing. One of the clubs he accidentally had in his bag.
Speaker 8 Accidentally?
Speaker 21 That's the perfect crime. The guy that would be in charge of reviewing it.
Speaker 81 He's like, hey, wait, I know this guy. It was Pete.
Speaker 70 What the fuck? That's Pete.
Speaker 21 Okay, so I understand that there's a lot of people in 100 countries listening.
Speaker 77 Top episode, Stephen A. Smith.
Speaker 21 If you are in
Speaker 21 Eastern Europe, please tweet at businesspete to stop stealing golf clubs.
Speaker 77 25% of new fans discovered you in 2023.

Speaker 73 Week 13.
Speaker 103 Week 13, boy.
Speaker 21 I don't like the sound of week 13.
Speaker 75 I know.
Speaker 21 I just don't because now we're putting the word teen in there and that sounds a whole lot like week 18 to me.
Speaker 66 Yeah, we're in the teen.
Speaker 104 We're in our teens now.
Speaker 51 Okay, so Sunday.
Speaker 17 Feels like we have a little bit, not the best sleep, but the Eagles 49ers game, which we'll get get to, is definitely the crown jewel of this weekend.
Speaker 21
I like that. The crown jewel.
The crown jewel.
Speaker 30 You like that?
Speaker 21 That's going to be the game that everyone's going to be focused on the afternoon.
Speaker 71 Yeah, the crown jewel of the weekend.
Speaker 60 We will live stream it.
Speaker 24 Max, you got any flights or anything?
Speaker 21 He's not on. How's the foot, Max?
Speaker 74 Foot's good. I will be here.
Speaker 8 Okay, great. Yep.
Speaker 33 Great.
Speaker 65 Ready to roll. All right, so let's get into the Sunday slate.
Speaker 57 Let's start.
Speaker 75 I ordered them in how I thought.
Speaker 47 What are you going to say, Hank? You say anything?
Speaker 75 I ordered them in the games that I thought were the most appealing.
Speaker 17 And again, it's not like the most appealing slate to start, but that's okay because that's usually chaos.
Speaker 67 Lions at Saints.
Speaker 67 Lions at Saints.
Speaker 21 Dan Campbell said he's not going to just yell louder.
Speaker 48 They're going to have a plan.
Speaker 21 I think he should have a new plan and also yell louder at his team.
Speaker 28 Okay.
Speaker 98 Test of both worlds.
Speaker 2 Yeah, this is going to be a true test to the Lions.
Speaker 17
I feel like they're at a crossroads because they've had two bad games. The Bears was a bad game, even though they won, and the Packers was a bad game on Thanksgiving.
Are they a real team in the NFC?
Speaker 17 Can they go down and beat the Saints, who are very injured?
Speaker 17 I think it's Michael Thomas is out.
Speaker 18 Olave's in the concussion protocol.
Speaker 18 Sheed Shahid's got a thigh injury.
Speaker 58 Cam Jordan is banged up.
Speaker 20 Marshawn Lattimore is out.
Speaker 21 Wait, you say Michael Thomas is out?
Speaker 105 Michael Thomas is out. Shut the fuck up.
Speaker 28 Never believe it.
Speaker 8 We also have a little
Speaker 2 discord?
Speaker 21 Discord? We have discourse? Discourse?
Speaker 59 No, Discord.
Speaker 21
Acrimonious Discourse. Is it Discord? There can be Discord.
Discourse is like a talk.
Speaker 16 It's talking, but Discord is bad.
Speaker 12 Discord is what?
Speaker 26 We've got some.
Speaker 21 It's actually on a website, Hank. It's an application.
Speaker 24 Discord, boomer.
Speaker 77 I mean, you could type in discord.com. Is that on a website?
Speaker 17 Well, you shouldn't be typing in any websites right now, Mr.
Speaker 107 Hacked. Discourse, written or spoken communication or debate.
Speaker 23 Yeah, but what about Discord?
Speaker 21 Yeah, there can be Discord.
Speaker 4 Yes. Does that mean it's bad, right?
Speaker 60 Discord.
Speaker 107 Disagreement between people? Correct.
Speaker 108 Yes. Okay.
Speaker 2 So he, okay, so the Saints have some discord.
Speaker 66 Happy we got that cleared up.
Speaker 20 Alvin Kamara, after Sunday's game, said
Speaker 85 the offense for the Saints doesn't have an identity.
Speaker 17 And then Dennis Allen said on Monday, I think we have explosive players on offense. I think we prove we can be explosive on offense, essentially saying the offense is explosive.
Speaker 55 They're 19th in scoring.
Speaker 21 So they do have explosive players, but that seems to also imply that they don't have an identity. If you answer, do you have an identity by saying, well, parts of our team have an identity? Yeah.
Speaker 21
That means you don't have an identity. Right.
It's like we've got good parts, but the whole thing, if you look at it, you just don't know what we are doing.
Speaker 90 Do you have a car?
Speaker 111 Well, I have a tire.
Speaker 60 Yeah, I've got a lot of, I've got a, I got a seat and a seat belt. I've got a lot of gas.
Speaker 21 Yeah.
Speaker 65 Do you have a car, though?
Speaker 30 No, you do not have a car.
Speaker 60 They don't.
Speaker 21 Well, they do have a car, actually. He's a car.
Speaker 110 Yeah, they do.
Speaker 26 Yep. That's true.
Speaker 21 But when you look at the Saints and this division as a whole, the NFC South, I have a prediction about this division. Okay.
Speaker 21
We're going to see whoever wins the NFC South will not fire their coach going into next season. Agreed.
Every Every other team will.
Speaker 60 Okay, so we already have the Panthers.
Speaker 21
We got the Panthers. They're out.
Saints, they're going to fire Arthur.
Speaker 32 Yeah, no, that's a good thing.
Speaker 105 They don't know what they're doing.
Speaker 21 The Bucs should fire
Speaker 21
Todd Bulls if they don't make it. Top 10 coach on the hunt out there.
And then the Falcons probably, I think that they might fire Arthur Smith. I'm not saying that they should.
Speaker 18 Well, they're going to win the NFC.
Speaker 21
They are going to win. But if they don't...
Actually, I'm not going to entertain hypotheticals.
Speaker 76 I like that thought, though, because I think you're right.
Speaker 21 But it also makes for, I think, hopefully better football from every team in that very sad division going down the the stretch because every coach, we can say the entire NFC South is coaching for the job.
Speaker 17 It actually would be fun if divisions did league meetings, like all the
Speaker 17 NFC South got together and like, hey, guys, we got to be better.
Speaker 76 Yeah, that's a joke.
Speaker 21 Annie Agar does that.
Speaker 113 Yeah, that's right. She does.
Speaker 47 She does.
Speaker 114 Okay.
Speaker 17 Yeah, I like the Lions in this game mostly because the Saints.
Speaker 116 Rush defense is kind of falling off a cliff.
Speaker 106 They've been getting gashed 228 yards last week against the Falcons.
Speaker 23 I feel like the Lions might, with Jared's mini slump, they might be like, hey, let's just run the ball down their throat, and then we'll just do play action, and then we'll win the game.
Speaker 21 I would like to see the Lions win this by double digits. Yeah, because
Speaker 113 I really would.
Speaker 17 With all the injuries that we've listed and Alvin Kamara saying we don't have an identity, I just don't know
Speaker 4 the Lions' defense is bad, but the Saints' offense is worse.
Speaker 60 So it's like you should be able to stop them.
Speaker 117 They don't have a ton of guys that can beat you.
Speaker 21 I actually agree 100% that they don't have an identity. Right.
Speaker 21
When everyone on the team seems to like the backup quarterback more than the starting quarterback, that is an issue. And that's what it feels like.
So I went back.
Speaker 21 There's an alternate angle of Ludacris repelling from the ceiling,
Speaker 21 landing at the 50-yard line, which again, Ludacris, it feels weird to say that he's underrated, but I feel like Ludacris has gotten more underrated in the last like five years. I agree.
Speaker 21
But he was, yeah, he's the best. So he's rappelling down, singing move, bitch.
And then Jameis Winston is getting all up in Derek Carr's face, like singing move, bitch to him.
Speaker 21 I think he was doing it to hype up Derek Carr, but also at the same time, when your backup quarterback is telling your starting quarterback, move bitch repeatedly,
Speaker 21 the starting quarterback starts to interpret that in a different way.
Speaker 85 Jameis has never been a read the room guy.
Speaker 118 No.
Speaker 60 That's not his strength.
Speaker 75 Really read anything.
Speaker 21 Read a linebacker.
Speaker 41 He's not like getting the temperature of a room and being like, hey, I shouldn't do this, shouldn't eat a W, shouldn't stand up on a table, say, fuck him, writing the pussy, that kind of stuff.
Speaker 8 Yeah, fuck her, write the room.
Speaker 119
Fuck her, writing the pussy. Yeah.
So, okay.
Speaker 21
Maybe, yeah, read the room. Like, he's never even read a stadium before.
Yeah. He went out dressed in his pads before a game.
Exactly. Which was like, hey, James, you're suspended.
Speaker 66 That's why we love him.
Speaker 21 Yeah, that's why we love James.
Speaker 48 That's exactly why we love him.
Speaker 12 It was a great clip, though.
Speaker 105 It was great.
Speaker 90 It really,
Speaker 21
to me, surpassed Drew Locke rapping to Yeezy. Yes.
With Jeezy, with Jeezy on the sidelines.
Speaker 17 Okay, nerd nugget.
Speaker 107 The Lions have produced at least 325 net yards in all 11 games this season for the first time in team history. No other team has an active streak or more than five games with 325 total.
Speaker 120 Hang the banner. Okay.
Speaker 21 Good job, Lions.
Speaker 82 Yards. Yards.
Speaker 48 Yard leaders. Yards.
Speaker 21 Yard kings.
Speaker 78 But we got a lot of yards.
Speaker 21
That's like a great name for a mower. Yeah.
The yard king.
Speaker 69 Or like a good giveaway at a minor league park.
Speaker 110 Yeah.
Speaker 21 Be the yard king tonight.
Speaker 4 Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 121 You get to come.
Speaker 71 Come down.
Speaker 41 We're going to do the yard king giveaway.
Speaker 21
Like right behind home plate, and you wear a crown and there's a throne. Sit in a lawn chair.
Yeah, no, like a lawn chair that's got jewels and shit on it. The yard king.
I'm the yard king.
Speaker 8 Yeah.
Speaker 85 The savannah bananas are definitely going to steal that from us.
Speaker 122 Okay.
Speaker 2 Broncos at Texans.
Speaker 109 Good game.
Speaker 37 Important game.
Speaker 21 I say great game. Yeah, I say this might be the crown jewel of the morning.
Speaker 31 Oh, so it's an important game.
Speaker 111 The Broncos,
Speaker 17 if they win on Sunday, have a 64% chance of making the playoffs, which is wild to say given where they were at the end of September.
Speaker 60 If they lose, they go down to 21%.
Speaker 2 And the Texans, similar, 54% if they win, 18% if they lose.
Speaker 15 It's a loser-leaves town game.
Speaker 17 The loser of this game will be under 25% chance to make the playoffs.
Speaker 21 I'd say loser moves to the suburbs. They can still get back in if they want because I looked at the Broncos schedule.
Speaker 21 It's not the easiest thing in the world, but if they lost this game, I could still see them win. I think they're probably going to lose one more at least.
Speaker 21 And things can shake out differently, obviously, over the course of the last few weeks.
Speaker 87 But
Speaker 21 I don't think that the Broncos are totally out of it. They've won, what, five in a row right now?
Speaker 80 Five in a row.
Speaker 21
Five in a row since October 22nd. They've beaten the Packers, Chiefs, Bills, Vikings, and Browns.
I'm going to put an asterisk on the Browns win, too, because
Speaker 21 that wasn't a real football team that we saw last week after DTR got hurt.
Speaker 60 Yeah, so you brought up those teams, and that was
Speaker 23 what I'm thinking about this game.
Speaker 60 So the Broncos have righted the ship.
Speaker 73 They've looked a lot better.
Speaker 22 They've also been getting a shitload of turnovers, 16 turnovers in the last five games in that stretch.
Speaker 60 And I was thinking about it.
Speaker 71 I was like, huh, I wonder how turnover-prone those teams that they beat. So the Browns, Vikings, Bills, Chiefs are all at the bottom of the league in terms of giving up the football.
Speaker 88 They have the most turnovers, and the Browns and Vikings are actually the worst and second to worse.
Speaker 114 Okay.
Speaker 17 So they had a string of games where they played teams that are careless with the football.
Speaker 73 They were able to greatly benefit from that.
Speaker 17
The Texans, on the other hand, are pretty good with the football. C.J.
Stroud obviously started his season without any turnovers for the first, whatever it was, six, seven games.
Speaker 2 That's kind of why I like the Texans.
Speaker 17 I feel like the Broncos has been very nice, but when the fumbles and the picks stop, it's like, okay, do they have the offense to like get these sustained drives?
Speaker 17 Can they do it when it's not a, you know, start the drive at the 50, start the drive at the opponent's 40.
Speaker 21 Let me ask you a question, though, Big Cat. Let's take it one layer deeper on that analysis.
Speaker 21 Are those teams ranked as being so careless with the football because they've played the Browns and the Browns took away the football from them?
Speaker 12 No, no, the Broncos.
Speaker 126 Broncos.
Speaker 21 The Broncos took away the football.
Speaker 73 Well, that's part of them, but they also, like, they also have a lot of turnovers.
Speaker 21 Yeah, Mahomes had a bunch of turnovers.
Speaker 50 And the Vikings have had a lot of turnovers.
Speaker 23 The Browns have had a lot of turnovers like in other games.
Speaker 17 So they, I mean, the Browns, their quarterback situation has led to a lot of turnovers.
Speaker 21
Right. So the Broncos defense, in addition to the turnovers, are also averaging, giving up just 16 points a game in the last five weeks.
Yeah.
Speaker 65 So they went from 36 to 16.
Speaker 21 They're legitimately good. There's no tank dell for Houston this weekend.
Speaker 21
Yeah. So I kind of like the Broncos.
I know I like C.J. Stroud.
Speaker 21 We are Stroud boys, but I feel like, I don't know, the Broncos, if the Broncos win this game, I'm going to to get reckless with my Broncos takes.
Speaker 21 And I've been already like, I've been hitting the median a little bit. I'm going to go fully off the road with my Broncos.
Speaker 2 The nice thing about this game is I don't really have
Speaker 58 like a rooting interest in either.
Speaker 60 I like both teams, kind of.
Speaker 62 You know what I mean?
Speaker 99 Like if either of these teams made it to the playoffs, I'd be like, that's fun.
Speaker 59 Like the Broncos would be a fun story.
Speaker 116 Russell Wilson, you know, putting it all back together.
Speaker 60 C.J. Stroud's obviously been one of the best stories of this year.
Speaker 14 So I think I'm okay with either team winning.
Speaker 53 It's not one team that I'm like, I don't want to see this team in the playoffs.
Speaker 21 I think that what we might have here is a Coach of the Year bowl.
Speaker 21 Maybe the winner of this game.
Speaker 17 Shane Steichen, though, still.
Speaker 21
Shane Steichen. That's one of my votes.
You can always say
Speaker 55 Steaton can win Coach of the Year.
Speaker 49 You don't think so?
Speaker 21 He should win comeback coach of the year.
Speaker 41 Comeback Coach of the Year from the beginning of the year.
Speaker 21
For how he started. Yeah.
Yeah. And also coming back.
Speaker 109 Yes, that too.
Speaker 21 So the Texans have never beaten Russell Wilson. I'm just put
Speaker 21 I've got one thing that I'm going to say about each game where I'm trying to steal Jake's nerd nugget. I love it.
Speaker 17 I've been doing that too, which is great.
Speaker 21 Was that it, Jake?
Speaker 107 No, I mean, you guys were close about the turnovers, but I have a little extra sprinkle.
Speaker 12 All right, go ahead.
Speaker 107 Give us a sprinkle. So the Broncos are now number one in the NFL and takeaways, and their best turnover differential is right now plus eight since 2005.
Speaker 28 They're plus 20.
Speaker 55 See, I'm saying fumble luck, ball luck.
Speaker 8 If it runs out,
Speaker 22 you got to try to time it.
Speaker 116 We talked about that.
Speaker 26 Hank, remember this
Speaker 17 that Hank did not like that?
Speaker 21 Hank doesn't believe in luck.
Speaker 129 Turnover luck.
Speaker 18 Turnover luck is a real thing.
Speaker 12 You don't believe in whether.
Speaker 71 No, the ball bounces.
Speaker 14 Like, there's times when the ball will bounce.
Speaker 66 It's like, oh, it went right into someone else's hands or it didn't. Like,
Speaker 23 there is an element of luck that comes into turnovers. Tip balls.
Speaker 8 Yeah.
Speaker 21 If there's like a cornerback that tries to make an interception and he should, and it bounces off his hands, and we're like, that's where he plays defense. Most cornerbacks would make that pick.
Speaker 21
You know, like, there's elements of. There's small, there's, but it's not like a data point.
I think it is a data point. It's very definition of a data point.
Speaker 77 Yeah, I think it's a small sample size.
Speaker 17 Everyone kind of regresses to the mean where it's like there's certain turnover plays that okay, that was expected to be a turnover, but like you could you could have a team that just recovers all their fumbles.
Speaker 21 I can understand why Hank doesn't believe in turnover luck because when Mac Jones throws an interception, he throws a fucking interception.
Speaker 48 There's no luck involved, no luck at all.
Speaker 21 That's actually turnover skill, and Mac Jones is very good at it.
Speaker 83 He is.
Speaker 65 Okay, next game, Colts of Titans.
Speaker 41 Jonathan Jonathan Taylor's out.
Speaker 130 That sucks.
Speaker 116 Thumb injury.
Speaker 21 This feels like a Mike Vrabel game tonight.
Speaker 23 I know.
Speaker 24 Will Levis at home has been good.
Speaker 29 It does feel like a Mike Vrabel game.
Speaker 21 It feels like a Vrabel special right now. What uniforms are they wearing?
Speaker 116 They're not doing their throwback skin, are they?
Speaker 21
The Titans? No, I don't think so. Okay.
I'm going to guess that they're going to wear some combination of blue, gray, and slightly a color that's in between gray and blue.
Speaker 8 I like the Titans uniforms in general.
Speaker 131 You do?
Speaker 48 Yeah.
Speaker 21 No, I disagree.
Speaker 132 Yeah, I kind of like them. All right.
Speaker 116 I think they're,
Speaker 133 I don't think there's anything Sunday, Titans uniforms Sunday.
Speaker 21 They're like the equivalent, the uniform equivalent of ambient music, where you're just like, it's just kind of stuff.
Speaker 19 It's like create a player on
Speaker 104 2K.
Speaker 21 It's like rain, listening to raindrops in your headphones. Yeah.
Speaker 55 All right. Well, I guess I can't find.
Speaker 130 I was going to just basically base this all off of the uniforms.
Speaker 65 But yeah, I like the Titans in this game.
Speaker 17 I do sure.
Speaker 35 Sure.
Speaker 118 I mean, if the Colts can win, they are right now the seventh seed.
Speaker 21 Minshew on the road is an issue. That is a
Speaker 21 remind myself of that. Minshew on the road.
Speaker 17 Yeah, all I'm seeing is can the Titans please wear the throwbacks again?
Speaker 28 Fair.
Speaker 112
Fair. It's a fair request.
Yeah, it's a fair request.
Speaker 21 And listen, our gripe is not with the Titans wearing those uniforms because the uniforms are bad. And we understand how teams work when they move cities, but you can't.
Speaker 21 I don't like the idea of going back and wearing a Houston Oilers jersey, especially when you're playing against the Houston Texans.
Speaker 56 Right, right.
Speaker 52 All right, nerd nugget for this game.
Speaker 107 Titans running back Derrick Henry has great success against the Colts in his 14 games against the division rivals. He has seven 100-yard rushing performances.
Speaker 134 Yep.
Speaker 21 Mike Frabel, Derrick Henry game. That's what I'm predicting that.
Speaker 28 Okay.
Speaker 66 All right.
Speaker 17 Next game up.
Speaker 52 Cardinals and Steelers.
Speaker 14 Kenny Pickett unlocked.
Speaker 83 Here we go.
Speaker 60 I didn't realize how funny the Matt Canada stats were.
Speaker 24 The fact that the last game that Matt Canada was not the offensive coordinator for the Steelers was when they lost to the Browns in the playoffs and the Steelers had 523 yards of offense.
Speaker 75 And then they went two and a half years without getting over 400 yards.
Speaker 17 And then the very first game that Matt Canada was not the OC, they went over 400 yards.
Speaker 65 Yeah.
Speaker 99 It's insane. Like, how is that?
Speaker 50 Was that.
Speaker 4 I just don't even understand it.
Speaker 83 I don't get it.
Speaker 3 That's how bad he was. Like, it's actually, you can statistically look at it.
Speaker 60 Really good offense, offensive output, two and a half years where they couldn't get over 400 yards.
Speaker 59 He leaves 400 yards.
Speaker 21
Yeah, it's just funny to me that Mike Tomlin kind of took on the Rooney's mentality with his own coordinator. Yeah.
Where he was like, yeah, we like, we like continuity here.
Speaker 21
Continuity sucks when the person that you're keeping continuity with is garbage. Yeah.
That's actually a downside to continuity. Yes.
Speaker 21 But then again, maybe Tomlin thought to himself, like, if I start firing people, maybe the Roonies don't even think that you can fire coaches. Yeah.
Speaker 21 And so if I start firing them, then they'll be like, wait, we can do this?
Speaker 65 Yeah, we didn't know this button was here.
Speaker 21 I'm going to press the button.
Speaker 21 But yeah, it is very funny to see the offense look. They looked like a real NFL offense last week.
Speaker 39 They threw in the middle of the field.
Speaker 45 Pat Fryermuth's season.
Speaker 21 Fryermuth, I wonder what Deontay Johnson's going to be. Is this going to be a Deontay Johnson works his ass off this week to try to get rid of the film from last week?
Speaker 60 Our Steelers Insider Jersey Jerry said that TJ Watt had a players-only meeting that he called to hold people accountable.
Speaker 21
Well, I heard that there was a fight that was going on. Actually, no, that was from Adam Schefter.
There was a fight that was going on.
Speaker 21
Minka Fitzpatrick and somebody else in the locker room were upset. And then TJ Watts stepped and he goes, hey, guys, we all need to be a team.
Let's cut this out.
Speaker 21
It was an exclusive report from Adam Schefter. I like it.
I like that. And then he marched straight into the workout room and started doing squats.
Speaker 24 And gave him some, what is that? What do they do? The taco seasoning?
Speaker 1 What's the
Speaker 64 here? Take some El Paso.
Speaker 21
You remember that report from Schefter a couple years ago where he was talking about his contract? And he marched straight into Mr. Rooney's office.
Yeah. Said, let's get this done.
Speaker 21 And then and then went right to the white room.
Speaker 2 Yeah, it's the best when Schefter tweets just strictly from the agent.
Speaker 21 I love TJ Watt in Schefter's brain is like an 80s movie character.
Speaker 55 That's hey, he's howie long.
Speaker 21
We all need to listen to Coach. Yeah, okay, let's get on the same page.
Coach is right, guys.
Speaker 65 Yeah, we, yeah, who's the cheesiest?
Speaker 1 At the commercial that's always stuck in our heads, yeah, yeah, well, it's cheesiest, uh, yeah, the Cardinals are bad.
Speaker 21 Who do you think JJ's rooting for in this matchup?
Speaker 21 Steelers,
Speaker 21 he's got a root for the Steelers. Got a root for the Steelers.
Speaker 55 Is there a chance that he comes back?
Speaker 29 Yeah, he was talking about it on, I think, on McAfee that he was working out with the guys.
Speaker 21 He did the eyeball emoji maybe before last week's game or the week before game. I think it was last week's game, actually, in Houston.
Speaker 31 That would rock.
Speaker 21
He like quote-tweeted something and did the eyeball emoji. And then people were like, oh, shit, is J.J.
Watt coming back to the Texans?
Speaker 21 I think he was just the captain, the honorary captain of the game.
Speaker 90 That would be cool, though.
Speaker 72 It would be cool. If he came back for just the playoffs, I would love to see J.J.
Speaker 21 Watt play for the Steelers in the playoffs.
Speaker 60 No, I'm saying for the Texans.
Speaker 90 I think he's saying
Speaker 14 on McAfee that he was working out with the Texans.
Speaker 21 Either one. For the Steelers, that would make sense.
Speaker 2 Yeah, the Steelers would be awesome.
Speaker 17 I like the Steelers in this game, even though it's stupid to take Mike Tomlin as a favorite of five and a half points or whatever it is.
Speaker 55 I just don't.
Speaker 29 The Cardinals' defense is bad.
Speaker 21 They're very bad. James Conner revenge game, though.
Speaker 23 Yeah, they're going to run the ball down their throat.
Speaker 21 One note about this one.
Speaker 21 Zach eartz got released today as reported by insider jj watt j watt yeah so zach eartz released from the cardinals max congratulations dream team dallas goddard out with a broken forearm everyone's saying that he wants to sign with a contender congrats on getting zach eartz back let me be the first to report exclusively on part of my take that the philadelphia eagles have signed zach eartz uh dallas goddard is going to be coming back soon so that might not be the case he said he was trying to play this week but i don't think he will okay but you don't want Zach Ertz then I do want Zach Ertz Juliurtz's husband.
Speaker 74 I do want JuliErtz's husband.
Speaker 74 But this whole thing that Goddard might be out one, maybe two more weeks. You can bring Ertz in, but I don't think he's going to be like a difference maker.
Speaker 21 You don't think Ertz is going to be a difference maker?
Speaker 60 Trey McBride is really good.
Speaker 51 That's why.
Speaker 31 That's why this is happening. Trey McBride's good.
Speaker 106 Yeah. For the Cardinals.
Speaker 74 Yeah, no. I mean, Zach Ertz is a Philly legend, but we don't need Zach Ertz right now.
Speaker 21 Wow. Not a difference maker.
Speaker 116 Turning your back on the family.
Speaker 74 I'm not turning my back on no family.
Speaker 21 It sounds like you kind of are.
Speaker 74
I'm not turning my back on a family. I want Frank Reich.
I was just telling you that.
Speaker 21 Give me Frank Reich. You want Frank Reich over Zach Erts family to bring back.
Speaker 120 Yeah.
Speaker 74 No, that's not bad family.
Speaker 80 That's bad family.
Speaker 66 Bad.
Speaker 8 Bad head coach.
Speaker 21 He's got that Panther stink on him. That's family.
Speaker 66 You just got a Panther.
Speaker 23 You let the text just sit there and you don't respond to it because you're like, I don't want to fucking get it.
Speaker 21 Max is just arguing like a six-year-old right now.
Speaker 8 That's not true.
Speaker 138 I'm not arguing.
Speaker 74 This doesn't need to be an argument. You just asked me my opinion, and I gave you my opinion.
Speaker 21 It's a bad opinion.
Speaker 74 To each their own.
Speaker 66 To each their own. Okay.
Speaker 104 Nerd nugget for Cardinals Steelers.
Speaker 107 The Steelers have 124 regular season victories against the NFC since the 1970 merger, which is the most among AFC teams. Wow.
Speaker 21 Almost as much as Lamar Jackson.
Speaker 110 That's wild. That is wild.
Speaker 108 Yeah.
Speaker 21 Super Bowl rematch, too.
Speaker 65 Yes.
Speaker 21 These two teams don't like each other very much.
Speaker 14 Throughout the record. John Madden's last game.
Speaker 21 Was it really? Yeah.
Speaker 8 On and out. Oh, I don't know.
Speaker 11 Yeah, I'm pretty sure that was John Madden.
Speaker 107 Was Antonio Holmes' game?
Speaker 2 I'm pretty sure that was.
Speaker 116 You can fact-check me.
Speaker 134 I'll look.
Speaker 24 Pretty sure that was John Madden's last game.
Speaker 139 Yeah,
Speaker 23 I've told this story a million times, but one of my buddies decided to drink an entire bottle of Malort, and I missed the run back.
Speaker 55 Oh, no.
Speaker 116 Yeah, he's just puking in my house. Were you holding his hair back?
Speaker 21 No,
Speaker 2 he disappeared.
Speaker 24 He started.
Speaker 23 He's like, I'm going to try to drink this whole bottle of Malort.
Speaker 2 And then he disappeared.
Speaker 22 And then I found him in my room.
Speaker 116 He had puked in my room.
Speaker 119 And it was just like the worst thing. That's bad.
Speaker 49 That was exactly.
Speaker 66 Because then it smelled like
Speaker 20 it was a basement apartment, too. It was just, oh, so bad.
Speaker 49 It was a great run back.
Speaker 2 I missed the run back.
Speaker 21 Larry Fitzgerald never gets the credit for it, but one of the all-time hustle plays on his part.
Speaker 107 Oh, is this the year where they did the split-Madden cover right after the Super Bowl? Paula Malo and Fitzgerald?
Speaker 41 Oh, they might have.
Speaker 21 I'm not sure what year that was.
Speaker 107 I think it was Madden 10, so it wouldn't make sense.
Speaker 79 Yeah, that does make sense.
Speaker 109 Okay, next up.
Speaker 50 Wait, did you do Nerd Nugget?
Speaker 107 Yeah, most wins against AFC
Speaker 107 for AFC teams.
Speaker 21 We had considered putting entire bottle of malure in the room with Max and Hank.
Speaker 3 Oh, yeah, they're live streaming.
Speaker 5 Live stream? Next Wednesday.
Speaker 75 We're going to do it.
Speaker 98 So everyone, this is the Mount Rushmore Punishment.
Speaker 22 Max and Hank will be live for 24 hours starting Wednesday night at 9 p.m. Central.
Speaker 107 Pardon My Take YouTube?
Speaker 22 Pardon My Take YouTube.
Speaker 17 We have some things planned for them.
Speaker 14 They can sleep a little bit overnight if they want to.
Speaker 26 We will stay live.
Speaker 39 So tune in.
Speaker 47 It's going to be...
Speaker 74
We're also looking for someone who could maybe perm not maybe, who could perm PFT's hair. Yes.
And give him a tattoo. And give him a tattoo.
Speaker 74 So anyone in the Chicago area who knows someone that would like to come into the office, please reach out to us.
Speaker 110 That can do perms and tattoos.
Speaker 21 And tattoos. Preferably
Speaker 26 both. Yeah, that would be fine.
Speaker 21 But no, ideally different people for both those tasks.
Speaker 21 Loki, I'm going to get kind of a glow up on this one.
Speaker 51 This is like Extreme Makeover. PFT is good.
Speaker 64 It's going to be great, though.
Speaker 73 And we're also,
Speaker 51 I don't plan on sleeping.
Speaker 64 It's going to be brought to you by Cell Blues.
Speaker 20 We're going to have a gold mug that day, too.
Speaker 81 So get excited.
Speaker 12 Get excited. Oh, yeah.
Speaker 74 What's the email again, Jake?
Speaker 107 PMT intern at barstoolsports.com.
Speaker 2 Okay, Dolphins and Commanders.
Speaker 55 PFT, I'm sorry.
Speaker 21 Yeah, I'm very sorry. This is going to be shit pumping, shit kicking.
Speaker 21
No two ways about it. I think that the Dolphins are going to hang a million points on us.
So I just don't want to give up as many points as the Broncos.
Speaker 21 As long as we don't set any NFL records, but they're going to put up a bunch. Did you see what the Dolphins do on on defense? They don't have a turnover chain.
Speaker 21 They don't have like a turnover plank or anything, but they have a turnover cake.
Speaker 80 What?
Speaker 21 So every player on the Dolphins defense that gets a turnover, they get a cake later on in the week.
Speaker 8 Oh, that's just awesome.
Speaker 21
It's awesome. Yeah.
So the guy, was it Holland that ran back to Hamilton?
Speaker 21
Yeah, he got a turnover cake this week. Love it.
It's a great, great
Speaker 21 means to
Speaker 21 motivate your players on defense. It's like, okay,
Speaker 73 either you can wear a chain around your neck for 30 seconds on the sideline or you get a full dessert yeah during the that's awesome also mike mcdaniels had a has had quite a week he uh did you see the clip he got hit in the nuts on the sideline he was he was hanging on for dear life i i my heart goes out to him for that moment but he also had to correct al michaels report that uh he stole uh his player's girl girlfriend and made him made it his wife okay yeah so al michaels told the story on black friday that they were mike mcdaniels they're at like some team function and then this girl was with one of the players, and he told the player, like, I'll take it from here.
Speaker 20 Otherwise, you're cut.
Speaker 91 Wasn't exactly like that, but he had to come out and correct Al Michaels for that.
Speaker 60 But yeah.
Speaker 21 That's a very funny story to get wrong.
Speaker 8 Yeah.
Speaker 110 He said that they had just met like 45 seconds before, so it wasn't like he stole someone else's girlfriend.
Speaker 21 Gotcha.
Speaker 5 But still, very funny to have to come out and say, hey, I want to just correct one thing.
Speaker 20 The mother of my children, my wife of many years, I didn't steal her.
Speaker 4 Yeah.
Speaker 21
Good for Mike McDaniel for like having people believe that for a week. though.
It's kind of a baller move. Yeah.
Speaker 21 I'm not optimistic, as you can tell about the commanders this weekend. This feels like a game that the Dolphins use as just like target practice.
Speaker 21 Like let's go out there and let's open up the playbook, try a bunch of weird shit, see if we can get our defense right. I'm personally hoping for good things from the commanders' offense.
Speaker 21
I would like to see us put up some points. I'd like to see Sam Howell continue not taking sacks, continue being a good quarterback.
And he's thrown for a million yards this year.
Speaker 21 I think he has the most yards of any quarterback in the NFL because they're asking him to drop back a lot and he's he's shown a lot of promise.
Speaker 21 I'm still committed to Sam Howell, but I just, I don't have good thoughts or feelings or vibes at all.
Speaker 124 Yeah, but this is the defense.
Speaker 53 This could be one of those games that like, usually when you go in expecting the worst, maybe something good happens.
Speaker 48 Yeah, it could be. Yeah.
Speaker 21 That's a good way to put it.
Speaker 21 And I am very dumb with my football analysis, so there's a chance I'm wrong about this too.
Speaker 21 I would love to be wrong about this, but we don't even really get an interim bump from our defense coordinator, Jack Del Rio, being fired, which kind of sucks because now it's just like, okay, Ron Rivera is going to be defensive coordinator.
Speaker 21
So you don't have like, it's not that much of a change of scenery on the defense. I would like, would have loved to have Rivera get fired, but Rivera kind of did Del Rio a solid, though.
Yeah.
Speaker 21
Like, hey, I'll just do all the work that you're doing. You're going to get paid.
Yeah, just get out of here, man. Just leave.
Scram. You don't have to drive to Landover, Maryland every weekend.
Speaker 21 Good for you. You don't have to worry about not showering after a game because we don't have any water in the locker room.
Speaker 3 Yeah, it actually was probably like he probably was like, thanks, man.
Speaker 118 Yeah.
Speaker 141 I can go home for Christmas.
Speaker 21 So all I want for the rest of the season is for Sam Howell to continue to be good enough to make the Commanders an attractive head coaching destination.
Speaker 55 Yeah, and not get sacked.
Speaker 21
That's all I want. And stay healthy.
Stay healthy and be good enough to the point where Belichick's like, okay,
Speaker 21 I can win with this game.
Speaker 65 I think that's a reasonable goal. Yeah.
Speaker 58 I like that.
Speaker 45 All right, Jake, you're nerd nuggets.
Speaker 107 A win on Sunday would improve Miami's record to 9-3 this season, something the dolphins haven't accomplished since 2001 head coach mike mcdaniel would also lock up another winning season he'd be the third head coach in dolphins history to have a winning record in each of his first two seasons joining don shula and dave wonstadt wow okay one more win that must be nice
Speaker 21 all right um i saw a very depressing stat the other day about the commanders and how how historically bad they've been through november over the last 23 years i think their best record was one year when they had i think seven wins going into November, and we missed the playoffs that year.
Speaker 21 Every other season has been like three wins, four wins, five wins, three wins, three wins, four wins, three wins.
Speaker 21 November, this time of year is just generally not a good time.
Speaker 5 It's when teams start playing real football.
Speaker 120 Yeah.
Speaker 66 We bow out.
Speaker 21 Belichick said that. He said the season doesn't start till Thanksgiving, right? Well,
Speaker 24 Chargers of Patriots.
Speaker 21 Yes. The season finally starts.
Speaker 67 Season has begun.
Speaker 128 I hope we lose. Okay.
Speaker 30 Fun fact for you, Hank.
Speaker 8 This is so the last time the Patriots were underdogs against an under 500 team at home was
Speaker 58 the game that Drew Bludsoe got knocked out.
Speaker 17 Wow.
Speaker 20 Started as an underdog, finished as a minus one and a half favorite against the Jets, but that's how long it's been.
Speaker 111 They are five and a half point underdogs, I believe, to the Chargers, which
Speaker 60 I, the Patriots are really bad.
Speaker 142 Really bad.
Speaker 115 They're really bad.
Speaker 30 Horrible. Mac Jones is really bad.
Speaker 49 I think Zappi's starter. Zappi is.
Speaker 20 Zappi is also really bad.
Speaker 21 Mac Jones is running scout team this week.
Speaker 83 Okay.
Speaker 90 With all that said, and they're really, really bad.
Speaker 3 Maybe worse team.
Speaker 89 I don't know how you could bet the Chargers minus five and a half on the road.
Speaker 59 Because the Chargers love to not
Speaker 17 win games that they should win convincingly.
Speaker 21 Yeah, Brandon Staley might be motivated to beat the guy who could potentially take his job, though.
Speaker 90 I guess, but like, could you, would you ever, like, I don't know if I'd take the Chargers minus five and a half against a college team on the road.
Speaker 124 Just at a principle.
Speaker 21 Just the logo, the colors, the history.
Speaker 48 They'd be like, oh, they'll probably win by three.
Speaker 21 But you know how bad the Patriots are right now? The Patriots are so bad that they got flexed out of Monday Night Football. It was going to be the Patriots.
Speaker 104 First ever.
Speaker 8 It was going to be the first time ever.
Speaker 21
The Patriots, the flexigami. It was going to be the Patriots and the Chargers.
Or excuse me, the Patriots and the Chiefs. And ESPN said, you know what?
Speaker 21 The Patriots are so bad that we don't want Taylor Swift's boyfriend to be playing in this game. That's how bad we think the ratings are going to be for the Patriots.
Speaker 105 That's an all-time.
Speaker 143 They're not wrong. And honestly, I'm happy.
Speaker 65 Yeah, no, you should be happy.
Speaker 24 Fun Charger stat, 61 career starts for Justin Herbert.
Speaker 19 1,526 points scored, 1,542 points allowed.
Speaker 91 Pretty damn close.
Speaker 21 Yeah. Well, just a couple weeks ago was dead even.
Speaker 108 It was dead even, yeah.
Speaker 48 Updating it.
Speaker 23 I want it to stay dead even.
Speaker 21
They have, what, one more loss than the end? Yeah. With him as a starting quarterback.
So by the system, they win this game.
Speaker 64 And I think it's like something crazy.
Speaker 106 Like 20 of the last 29 Chargers games have been decided by a touchdown or less, which leads me to my point of like, how could you bet the Chargers?
Speaker 3 I know that the Patriots are so, so bad.
Speaker 56 This is a game you should not bet.
Speaker 14 I'm probably still going to bet it, but you should not bet.
Speaker 21 To Hank's point, Bailey Zapi hasn't really started, though.
Speaker 77 This could be a coming up. All right, so Hank's going to take
Speaker 77 it.
Speaker 21
Or history repeats itself. And last time this happened, where there were this much of a home dog, Drew Bledsoe got hurt.
Tom Brady steps in, right?
Speaker 21 So your starting quarterback, Bailey Zappi, gets hurt. Your backup, Mac Jones, steps in, and then he becomes the guy.
Speaker 50 Yes, this is the start of the DVD.
Speaker 8 Love it, Hank.
Speaker 21 Yeah, this is a bad time to be a fan of either team. But to Hank's point earlier about fumble luck, turnover luck being bullshit, the Chargers kind of back him up on that.
Speaker 21
Because they have been like exactly, as we said, even with point differential wins, losses, all that stuff. And they have like the worst turnover luck of all time.
But it's consistent.
Speaker 51 Yeah, no, they're just a bad.
Speaker 21
Like, with the Chargers, you can be consistently bad at having turnover luck. And it actually just means that you're bad.
Bad.
Speaker 49 That you're bad at football.
Speaker 110 Yeah.
Speaker 114 Okay.
Speaker 41 Hank, you don't want to win?
Speaker 144
No. Okay.
I think we might, though.
Speaker 54 That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 48 It's just the... But I don't want to.
Speaker 60 It's like the Patriots are so bad.
Speaker 70 It has nothing to do with with the Patriots, just the Chargers five and a half on the road, the Lighthouse.
Speaker 89 Like, who's gonna stop bringing up the Lighthouse?
Speaker 108 That's that's crazy.
Speaker 44 They shouldn't be five and a half point favorites.
Speaker 109 There's the Chargers, they're a disaster right now.
Speaker 112 They're they're on quit watch, yeah.
Speaker 26 Uh, uh, Quentin Johnson got benched last week.
Speaker 21 I think the Patriots are on quit watch, too.
Speaker 112 Oh, I think the Patriots already quit because it's like
Speaker 77 lost to Tommy DeVito. Yeah, yeah, quit watch half.
Speaker 21 Because, like, going into work every day and have Belichick just reading you the riot act.
Speaker 21 Yeah, that's a really good thing if you're a great team and he's like motivating you to play even better to the best of your ability.
Speaker 21
But if you're a really bad team, that just makes you bummed out all the time. Yeah.
Yeah.
Speaker 19 You see the Jabril Peppers clip?
Speaker 28 No. Yeah.
Speaker 121 He hugs Saquon Barkley and he was like, you're lucky we ass.
Speaker 8 Oh. Yeah.
Speaker 134 Love it.
Speaker 21 You're lucky we're not better because we would have beaten you if we were better at football.
Speaker 36 You lucky we ass.
Speaker 58 Okay, Jake, you're nerd nugget.
Speaker 107 Patriots head coach Bill Belichick will coach in his 424th overall game this week.
Speaker 107 That'll move past Don Shula for the third most games coach with one team behind George Hallis's 506 and 454 by Tom Landry. Crafts coach Belichick, win or lose, you are third place now.
Speaker 107 Most games ever with one team.
Speaker 107 Unless they fire him before Sunday.
Speaker 21 Okay. That'd be funny.
Speaker 21
He might take the GMU job, I heard. There was a Photoshop going around.
He loves DC.
Speaker 21
He does love D.C. That's great.
I saw a Photoshop.
Speaker 77 That's me. That's basically close to Annapolis.
Speaker 48 It's very complex. Consider.
Speaker 21 And to Landover, where he'll also be coaching the Commanders.
Speaker 104 Yeah.
Speaker 8 He's going to be a busy man. We'll dip in.
Speaker 114 Okay.
Speaker 2 Jets, Falcons and Jets.
Speaker 30 Tim Boyle's worse than Zach Wilson.
Speaker 21 Do you think so? I do think so. But he's not Zach Wilson is a thing.
Speaker 21 Yeah, I know.
Speaker 21 I don't think
Speaker 21 he's not as bad in hilarious ways as Zach Wilson is.
Speaker 49 He's bad in unique ways.
Speaker 83 Yeah.
Speaker 21 He's like traditionally bad at football.
Speaker 49 Yeah.
Speaker 17
I don't know. This Jets team is such a bummer.
I think their defense is quit watch.
Speaker 20 Obviously, Aaron Rodgers back at practice.
Speaker 83 Okay.
Speaker 99 Is he really going to play for a team that's like...
Speaker 59 Because they lose this week.
Speaker 41 They're almost mathematically eliminated, but they are eliminated.
Speaker 75 Memes, you want him to play?
Speaker 14 Why would you want him to play behind this offensive line?
Speaker 121 I slightly got my hopes up after seeing all those videos.
Speaker 26 But why?
Speaker 21
I know why the videos would make you amped up because you're like, oh, that's cool. Maybe we won't suck ass next year.
But do you really want him back this year? Why would you be amped up for that?
Speaker 98 If they win,
Speaker 121 he's mastered this offense.
Speaker 61 Well, how has he mastered this offense?
Speaker 121 This is the offense he's always run.
Speaker 47 Okay.
Speaker 121 That's all I got.
Speaker 20 Okay, that was not convincing.
Speaker 24
You tried. You tried.
You tried.
Speaker 21
You understand what we're saying. Like, he's mastered maybe the diagrams of the plays and where to throw the ball.
But the offensive line is really the point.
Speaker 60 Yeah,
Speaker 58 he's going to be on a recently repaired, very recently repaired Achilles, and it's not like they have the easiest schedule.
Speaker 48 Like, they have to win out memes.
Speaker 21 Yeah, which isn't happening.
Speaker 42 But what if he got hurt again?
Speaker 2 Why would you want to risk that?
Speaker 21 Yeah, I saw a tweet that said his other Achilles has the possibility to do the funniest thing ever.
Speaker 109 Yeah, it's true.
Speaker 19 That is very true.
Speaker 21 It would be very funny.
Speaker 17 I don't know.
Speaker 17 This game, I feel like the Falcons, you have to, it's the Falcons here, but then the Falcons also, like Desmond Ritter, could so easily throw three interceptions interceptions in this game.
Speaker 21 Yeah, the thing is, the big question is, how many points is the Jets' offense going to give up?
Speaker 8 Right.
Speaker 21
Like, the Jets' offense is one of the worst defenses in the league. Yeah.
Yeah. If they don't, if the Falcons score a touchdown or even like a short field goal.
Speaker 21 I'm going to say if they score a touchdown, if there's any six involved, if they score a touchdown, the Falcons are going to win. If they...
Speaker 21 Defense doesn't score a touchdown against the Jets offense, I still think the Falcons are going to win.
Speaker 53 So, memes, are you in, you want to win this game?
Speaker 52 I'm saying if we win, I'm all the way back in.
Speaker 48 Got it.
Speaker 5 I guess five and seven is look, I mean, five and seven does look not that bad.
Speaker 121 Because you play the Texans, you play the Browns.
Speaker 105 The Browns. Both of those teams are
Speaker 105 just.
Speaker 121 I'm just saying, like, you have it, you have a chance.
Speaker 58 But Aaron Rodgers on like a recently repaired Achilles behind that offensive line against Miles Garrett and the Browns defense.
Speaker 78 Shotgun.
Speaker 52 Yeah, actually, I didn't think a shotgun.
Speaker 8 Fuck.
Speaker 90 I didn't think a shotgun.
Speaker 121 Shotgun, get rid of the ball in two seconds. hand off.
Speaker 8 Uh-huh.
Speaker 55 I didn't think a shotgun.
Speaker 121 Aaron Rodgers running shotgun only is better than Tim Boyle.
Speaker 49 I actually agree with that.
Speaker 21 Aaron Rodgers with one foot in the shotgun formation is better than Tim Boyle.
Speaker 107 Yes. He can just play and line up like a punter so that no one can touch him.
Speaker 8 Have him be like from that far off. Yeah.
Speaker 105 Double shotgun.
Speaker 107 Just make the feel longer, but it's Aaron Rodgers.
Speaker 21 Have him be in 50-cal formation?
Speaker 53 Sure.
Speaker 99 Memes, when he tours Achilles, was he in shotgun?
Speaker 78 Yeah. Oh, fuck.
Speaker 21 He was?
Speaker 21 He was.
Speaker 118 Joanne Brown was playing, though.
Speaker 8 But he won't be it.
Speaker 3 But so your day one offensive start,
Speaker 124 that's better?
Speaker 99 Your offensive line's gotten better?
Speaker 121 Has it gotten better? It's gotten worse.
Speaker 8 Okay.
Speaker 21 Has the field gotten better? Has the MetLife turf been improved?
Speaker 24 We're trying to find a place where we can maybe agree with something you're saying.
Speaker 56 And we're digging deep.
Speaker 8 We just need them to lose to agree.
Speaker 123
Okay. All right.
All right. All right.
Speaker 50 So they're all right.
Speaker 60 So then, yeah.
Speaker 50 So like lose and then it's over.
Speaker 48 Yeah, lose and then it's over.
Speaker 53 But win and it's Rodgers.
Speaker 116 Win and it's Rodgers.
Speaker 21 This might be the worst win in New York Jets history if they win this game and then Rogers gets in.
Speaker 111 I love this analysis.
Speaker 21 But I feel like we've had this exact same conversation.
Speaker 105 Oh, it'll be next week. We'll do the same thing.
Speaker 8 About Aaron.
Speaker 12 It'll be four and eight.
Speaker 21
And then Memes goes and he watches his Jets score three points on offense. Yeah.
He's like, well, maybe next week. Yeah.
Speaker 55 They win next week's Rodgers time.
Speaker 21
Young Wei Koo, the kicker for the Falcons, is now the all-time most accurate kicker in the history of the NFL. Oh, because Justin Tucker's washed now.
Yeah. So shout out Young Waikou.
Speaker 21 Jake, did I get it?
Speaker 107 No, I know you're trying though.
Speaker 60 All right, what is it?
Speaker 107 Falcons running back Bijan Robinson needs 62 scrimmage yards on Sunday to secure the title for having the most yards in his first 12 games of any Falcons rookie in franchise history.
Speaker 21
I think it might be Bijan's season. I do too.
I think Arthur Smith might be, he finally might listen to all the fancy football nerds out there and say, okay, you want Bijan?
Speaker 21 We're going to build the entire plane out out of bijan go straight ahead yes um
Speaker 21 that word scrimmage that's a weird word why do we call it the line of scrimmage that's a good question
Speaker 8 i've never thought about that i've been like practice all my life
Speaker 21 no i wish i was high a confused struggle or fight i guess that makes sense Oh, I didn't know that that was a
Speaker 70 scrimmage is a confused struggle or fight. That's the first definition.
Speaker 26 Oh, didn't know it.
Speaker 21 Because we always talk about scrimmage being like a practice game.
Speaker 4 Yeah, but that is where that's where
Speaker 123 to
Speaker 3 explain what happens in American football on the line of scrimmage, it is a confused struggle fight.
Speaker 73 It is.
Speaker 117 Like, if you watch it, you'd be confused what's going on.
Speaker 39 Yes, Hank.
Speaker 30 And they're struggling and fighting.
Speaker 21 Hank has been in a scrimmage against words and reading his entire life.
Speaker 110 Facts.
Speaker 28 Yeah.
Speaker 26 Okay, before we...
Speaker 146 So, y'all know that we're big fans of Cracker Barrel.
Speaker 105 And this holiday season, I will be sat at their table with a big plate of country-fried turkey.
Speaker 147 And Brandon, I'll be right there with you, and I'll check it off my Christmas list in the country store while I'm at it. It'll make a a nice holiday tradition.
Speaker 105 Oh, that's so cute of you.
Speaker 147 Enjoy all the more holiday traditions only at Cracker Barrel.
Speaker 21 Panthers and Bucks.
Speaker 118 Frank Reich gone.
Speaker 21 Frank Reich gone.
Speaker 70 Chris Tabor.
Speaker 21 Did you do some research on Chris Taber? Well,
Speaker 58 he coached one game for the Bears when Matt Nagy had COVID.
Speaker 50 He's a fiery guy.
Speaker 21
So the fun fact that I found about Chris Tabor is that he coached one game for the Bears. Yeah.
That's it. That's all we know about him.
Speaker 21 I'm of the mind
Speaker 21 that any interim coach is better than Frank Reich right now. Like, just something different is good for the Panthers.
Speaker 3 He is a fiery guy.
Speaker 24 I kind of like a special teams coach being named interim head coach because he usually has like a pulse on like the dogs of the locker room, you know, the grinders.
Speaker 73 So I'm good with that.
Speaker 141 Also, Thomas Brown, who we talked about
Speaker 14 earlier in the season, because remember, Frank Reich gave him offensive play calling duties.
Speaker 71 They won a game.
Speaker 59 Then he took it away three weeks later.
Speaker 52 He's back calling plays.
Speaker 66 It seems like the players want him to call plays, so that might be good.
Speaker 65 And Baker Mayfield's a little banged up.
Speaker 45 I'm talking myself into the Panthers.
Speaker 21
I don't know if you should do that. I know.
I don't know if you should do that at all.
Speaker 21 But the interim head coach bump is a real thing. And the Panthers, we talked about it earlier with the Raiders and their interim situation.
Speaker 21 The Panthers are actually the perfect candidate to do our theory of just putting a different interim coach in every single week.
Speaker 21 Just somebody that has like a tenuous connection at best to the Charlotte area, bringing them in and being like, okay, now it's your week.
Speaker 21
Because I think in this circumstance, like players will respond to just a change. Yeah.
No matter what the change is.
Speaker 80 Anything different.
Speaker 8 Anything different.
Speaker 113 Anything different.
Speaker 21 I was also thinking about David Tepper more this week.
Speaker 21 He is a classic example of a billionaire who...
Speaker 21 is used to just having things done almost like the wave of a magic wand. If you're a billionaire, your life is so easy that you just say you want something and then it happens.
Speaker 21
Having a billion dollars is a magic wand. Yes.
For anything. Like, oh, I want a new plane.
Okay, here's a new plane. I have.
Speaker 117 And it's not even you have to do it.
Speaker 64 You just have to tell someone plane.
Speaker 21
Yeah. Just be like, hey, spend my money on this so that I can.
Yeah. And then it just happens.
Everything happens for you.
Speaker 21
Once you get to a competitive sports league, you no longer have the magic wand. Correct.
You can't just be like, wild card.
Speaker 112 Plane.
Speaker 21
Yeah. I want.
Boom. Playoff appearance.
It's not like that anymore. Clean house.
And Tepper is very, very confused with not having his magic wand ability work right now. Yeah.
Speaker 60 No, I agree with you.
Speaker 24 It's very fun to watch because he doesn't seem like the best guy. Nope.
Speaker 48 Not a guy I want to work for.
Speaker 21 You know, he bought when he was at Goldman Sachs, he didn't get a promotion and
Speaker 21
eventually he goes off, starts his own hedge fund. His former boss didn't promote him.
Yeah. He was so pissed off at his former boss, he bought his former boss's house.
Speaker 60 Yes, I remember this in Toronto, right? Destroyed it.
Speaker 4 Yes.
Speaker 21 Raised it to the ground and then built a bigger house where his former boss's house used to be.
Speaker 106 I'm a David Tepper fan now.
Speaker 21 Yeah.
Speaker 90 I mean, I don't, I would
Speaker 21
not want him running my football team. No.
However, I appreciate it when, like, a billionaire does cartoon billionaire shit.
Speaker 29 He definitely has had that conversation in a meeting where it's like, what if we just tear down another team's stadium?
Speaker 115 Yeah.
Speaker 90 Yeah. Would we win the game?
Speaker 8 Yeah. What if we bribe, I'll bribe them.
Speaker 21 Yeah. He's probably tried to bribe his opponent.
Speaker 141 If we blow up someone's stadium, would they forfeit?
Speaker 70 Would we win?
Speaker 14 Have I found a way to a perfect season?
Speaker 104 Yeah.
Speaker 51 Blows up every stadium.
Speaker 48 I need to have like Bane.
Speaker 21 I got to have hard knocks David Tepper.
Speaker 113 Oh, yeah.
Speaker 21 That'd be sick, wouldn't it?
Speaker 2 It's going to be the Bears, though, because it's going to be Harbaugh.
Speaker 63 What do you mean?
Speaker 23 Like, Harbaugh is going to come to the Bears, and they're going to do Hard Knocks.
Speaker 21 Oh, the Hard Knox, yeah. I mean, like, just following David Tepper.
Speaker 66 Oh, I would want to entire life.
Speaker 64 Yeah, yeah. I want to see.
Speaker 17 Oh, you're saying that, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 20 I was saying like who's going to be hard knocks next year if David Temper was featured would be great.
Speaker 120 Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 83 But wait, if you have a new head coach oh yeah that's right that's right so david temper oh no they're gonna have a new head coach too
Speaker 21 who do we want we need to start thinking about that for next year running back with the jets
Speaker 26 could be the patriot
Speaker 48 new head coach
Speaker 133 yeah new head coach
Speaker 107 yeah okay well yeah we'll start we'll start making our predictions uh okay uh nerd nugget for this game i am going to take the the the panthers and i'm going to regret it i just want that on the record a duo of bucks defensive players lead the league and rookie tackle for lost leaders Kalija Cancey tied for first among rookies with eight, while Yaya Diabi is right behind with seven TFL this season.
Speaker 21 Yaya.
Speaker 107 So the future of the Bucs defense is bright.
Speaker 21
Nice. I guess so.
Yeah.
Speaker 149 Sure.
Speaker 91 Yeah.
Speaker 21 One anonymous Bucs fan, I won't say their name, but they work at this office and they're annoying as fuck,
Speaker 21 gave me a tip to bet on Elijah Cansey to win Defensive Player of the Year. He's like, at the very worst, you'll have a lucrative cash out option later on.
Speaker 21 So that was a fucking lie.
Speaker 39 Yeah.
Speaker 21 And that's my nerd nugget.
Speaker 107 Well, he's he's the top rookie tackle for loss leader.
Speaker 30 We could get the spin zone going.
Speaker 21 He is the top rookie tackle for loss.
Speaker 48 He's got eight of them. Yeah.
Speaker 90 Eight?
Speaker 48 That's what I just said. Yeah.
Speaker 105 That's a lot. Yeah.
Speaker 8 Yeah. Wow.
Speaker 110 And I got the Abbey right behind him.
Speaker 138 Stop shaking your head.
Speaker 32 Don't shake your fucking head.
Speaker 21 Okay, I'm going to say something nice about Jalen Carter. Yeah.
Speaker 21 That play they had where he chased down Josh Allen last week.
Speaker 66 You remember we were watching?
Speaker 8 Yeah, that was Jordan Davis.
Speaker 21 Oh, that's Jordan Davis. That wasn't Jalen Carter.
Speaker 74 Which is more impressive because he's like 50%.
Speaker 32 I'll say something nice about Jalen Carter.
Speaker 99 It's still unclear whether he was reprimanded by a police officer or not.
Speaker 21 Okay, that's nice.
Speaker 74 How is that nice?
Speaker 124 Actually, he doesn't. Well, I said it's still unclear.
Speaker 74 That's just like stating a fact.
Speaker 50 That is still unclear.
Speaker 8 Yeah,
Speaker 124 right.
Speaker 99 So he might not have done it. That's nice.
Speaker 74 But you're not even saying that he didn't do it.
Speaker 65 Oh, he didn't do it.
Speaker 78 There you go. Oh, wait,
Speaker 21
when he was at Center City. Yeah.
And they were going through a self-checkout line. Target.
Speaker 2 And he appeared. Oh, you know a lot about this case, huh?
Speaker 21 Yeah. What's going on there, Max? A lady that he was with stole something?
Speaker 42 Did they ever find the bike that hit Kelly Ubre?
Speaker 126 That is weird. I still don't know anything about it.
Speaker 8 Or the car?
Speaker 128 Yeah.
Speaker 6 That would actually be funny if it was a bike.
Speaker 143 He was holding a bike, but there wasn't talks to the bike.
Speaker 143 Whatever.
Speaker 108 Jordan Davis.
Speaker 1 This was the part of my take segment where we just read Jeff Nadus.
Speaker 74 Jalen Carter, defensive rookie of the year.
Speaker 4 Yeah.
Speaker 3 Did they ever find the guy in Mexico that killed all those people in the cartel?
Speaker 48 I don't.
Speaker 21 Listen, I like Jalen Carter, but how many tackles for lost does he have?
Speaker 107 Kalajikansi was just named NFL Defensive Rookie of the Month for November.
Speaker 12 Of the month? Whoa.
Speaker 8
Four hours ago. Whoa.
And four's over.
Speaker 21
That's incredible. He did it.
Yeah. So, Jalen Carter, how many, you didn't get back to me.
How many tackles for lost does he have? I don't know.
Speaker 26 How many? I can't memorize his stats.
Speaker 21 How is it more or less than eight?
Speaker 99 How many defensive rookie of the month has he won?
Speaker 143 Let's see.
Speaker 47 Okay, go check that.
Speaker 110 Zero?
Speaker 21
Kaliji Cancey, he's built different. He is.
He really is. One of one.
Speaker 97 Was it with a C or a K?
Speaker 124 Kaliji. C, I believe.
Speaker 11 No, C. C.
Speaker 32 And his last name is B. His last name.
Speaker 21 I thought you were asking about his last name.
Speaker 143 You had a 50-50 shot?
Speaker 37 I thought you were asking about his last name.
Speaker 112 It's a K.
Speaker 38 I don't know if he has any.
Speaker 105 Let's see what the lucrative cash out actually is like right now.
Speaker 21 I think it's like $3.
Speaker 8 All right.
Speaker 88 He doesn't have any.
Speaker 113 I don't think he has any. Kali Cancey.
Speaker 60 Kalijo Cancey with a K.
Speaker 21 Your boy has zero tackles for loss. And you think.
Speaker 74 No, I was talking about rookie of the month.
Speaker 31 Rookie of the months and four sacks.
Speaker 109 Kalijo.
Speaker 31 Kaliji. He's got at least four then.
Speaker 49 That's a tackle for loss.
Speaker 99 Yeah. So he's got no rookie of the months, and Kalija Cancey with a K has at least one.
Speaker 135 One.
Speaker 74 Yeah, that's correct.
Speaker 134 Okay.
Speaker 107 Six for
Speaker 107 Jalen Carter.
Speaker 134 Okay.
Speaker 107 Not eight. It's not eight.
Speaker 21 It's not eight. I'm looking at my cash out.
Speaker 49 Oh, cash out unavailable.
Speaker 17 Oh, that's because they know it's about to
Speaker 38 pop. About to pop.
Speaker 64 All right, Browns at Rams.
Speaker 141 Joe Flacco?
Speaker 104 Joe Flacco, baby.
Speaker 109 Is it?
Speaker 105 Is it Joe Flacco? I don't know.
Speaker 8 It is. It is.
Speaker 21
It is. From what I'm hearing, it is.
Hell yes. DTR still in the protocol.
Usually you don't recover. You don't get out of the protocol in a week.
It's happened like one time.
Speaker 21 So he's still dealing with that. And I don't think that they have any designs on going back to PJ Walker.
Speaker 17 No, I think this is
Speaker 22 very funny that the Browns fans have to root for Joe Flacco.
Speaker 21 It is very funny. Per the offensive coordinator of the Browns, Alex Van Pelt, he said Flacco still has an elite arm.
Speaker 21 So, listen, I've staked my entire reputation on Joe Flacco possibly being elite.
Speaker 3 This is going to be a great test, too.
Speaker 111 Like, Joe Flacco's well, well past being old.
Speaker 5 He's very old, and he, when we last saw him, he looked terrible.
Speaker 90 But, like, could a
Speaker 58 once-good quarterback quarterback who's now old, be better than a 22-year-old that doesn't know how to play football?
Speaker 21
It's a possibility. Yeah, we're going to find out.
Here's the thing with Flacco: when we last saw Joe, he looked like he couldn't move at all.
Speaker 21 Yeah, I don't know if he's gotten better at moving around. I think basically, Joe Flacco was like, I've got seven kids or six kids.
Speaker 21
It kind of sucks being in the house all the time. Yeah.
It would be nice to just get out of there for Sundays at least. Yeah.
Speaker 21 So I think that was his big motivation on getting back to the NFL. But the arm looks good.
Speaker 65 Elite, in fact. Yeah.
Speaker 23 I'm in on the Rams, though, this week.
Speaker 17 The Browns' defense is very good, but they also have had a few games where they've really feasted on some unfortunate situations.
Speaker 41 Kenny Pickett, Matt Canada, Clayton Toon.
Speaker 48 Remember Clayton Toon? Yeah, remember him?
Speaker 21 That was wild.
Speaker 58 So there's four games that they've held their opponents at 10 points or less. Joe Burrow, week one, when he was still hurt.
Speaker 17 Ryan Tannehill, bad.
Speaker 116 Clayton Toon, bad. Matt Canada, Kenny Pickett.
Speaker 30 Browns' defense is still very, very good.
Speaker 14 I'm just saying more.
Speaker 58 The point is, Matt Stafford is better than the four I just listed.
Speaker 21 He is much better.
Speaker 20 Kirk Joe Burrow, Clayton Toon, Ryan Tannehill, Matt Cannon, and Kenny Pickett.
Speaker 21
I just hope that Joe Flacco and Aaron Donald don't get to meet each other at all. Yeah.
Because that would be bad.
Speaker 26 Yeah.
Speaker 21 I can tell you who's going to win that.
Speaker 119 I want the Browns to hold on and get to the playoffs so bad. I just don't know.
Speaker 21 You never know, though. Flacco, he's still got that arm.
Speaker 42 Flacco could.
Speaker 65 I do think Flacco will have at least a game that surprises us. Yeah.
Speaker 21 You remember that comeback that he had on the Jets? Was that Jets?
Speaker 143 It was against the Browns.
Speaker 82 Jets Browns. Yeah.
Speaker 12 Dude, Flacco still might have it.
Speaker 24 They played at Rams, Jaguars at home, Bears at home, at Texans.
Speaker 142 That's okay.
Speaker 45 All right, come on. Come on, Browns.
Speaker 26 You know where he bought.
Speaker 21 You know where I was real bad with Flacco was when he was on the Jets, he was struggling to
Speaker 21 backpedal and turn around and hand the ball off.
Speaker 21 That movement was tough for him. Yeah.
Speaker 119
He's got to stay loose. He's got fresh legs, though.
He's got fresh legs.
Speaker 51 It's a good game.
Speaker 30 Okay, Nerd Nugget.
Speaker 107 Before the Nerd Nugget, I think it's worth telling you guys that the Browns stayed out west.
Speaker 21 Yeah, they did. Yep, good point.
Speaker 107 From Denver, and they practiced at UCLA last week, this week, and there's supposed to be a homecoming for DTR, but he might not play.
Speaker 110 Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 85 Miles Garrett banged up.
Speaker 81 He is playing, though.
Speaker 50 He's playing, but I don't know how.
Speaker 21 Yeah, I don't know if he's 100%.
Speaker 107
If Joe Flacco is going to play for the Browns this weekend, keep in mind he is 2-0 against the Rams. They were the St.
Louis Rams for both games in 2011 and 2015.
Speaker 107 In the pair of wins, that's a terrible status.
Speaker 26 Average
Speaker 26 300
Speaker 107 passing yards per game. Yep.
Speaker 21
Yeah, he's a Rams killer. Yes.
Two games, average 344. They call him Silverado because he destroys the Rams.
It's way better than the Rams.
Speaker 138 2011. I mean, I like it because
Speaker 64 it's funny because it
Speaker 17
means nothing. You think it means something.
So it's like,
Speaker 4 it's a stat that I like because ironically.
Speaker 107 If he goes off this week.
Speaker 48 Yeah, then I guess
Speaker 18 if he goes off this week and the Browns win this game on Sunday night, I'll say, Jake, you were right.
Speaker 69 He is the Rams killer.
Speaker 126 I'm just reporting facts.
Speaker 21 What is going off for Joe Flacco this weekend? We should define that because it needs to be on a scale of 200 yards. Yeah, to over 200 yards.
Speaker 107 Multiple passing touchdowns.
Speaker 12 Two passing touchdowns.
Speaker 21 Two passing touchdowns, one interception, and one 40-yard pass that's 10 yards under thrown for a pass interference. Yeah.
Speaker 50 I'd like to see two of those.
Speaker 21 I mean, I would love to see the entire offense build two of those.
Speaker 114 okay.
Speaker 56 Game, the crown jewel of Sunday, Niners and Eagles.
Speaker 67 Niners and Eagles.
Speaker 21 Do you feel disrespected, Max? Because I feel disrespected for you.
Speaker 74 No, I love. I mean, yes, it's disrespectful, but I'm happy to see that line.
Speaker 21 Yes, Defanski is so excited.
Speaker 55 The boys are going to be fired up.
Speaker 74
I think this is going to be the first game. In a while that, like, right out of the gate, we're humming.
I think they could be humming too, but, like.
Speaker 42 The Niners have talked talked a lot of shit.
Speaker 74
Like, and they have to back it up. Debo just keeps talking shit.
He just keeps going on different shows and continuing to talk shit. Like, I don't
Speaker 74 like the Eagles didn't do anything wrong.
Speaker 151 The fact that.
Speaker 70 No, I don't think that they're, I don't think they're talking shit.
Speaker 60 No, they are.
Speaker 92 I'm not saying they did anything wrong.
Speaker 21 Are you saying that the Niners are bullies?
Speaker 110 No.
Speaker 99 Did Debo say that the Eagles have done wrong things?
Speaker 74 I'm not saying that.
Speaker 74 I'm just saying, like.
Speaker 74 What do you expect the Eagles to do?
Speaker 126 Is all I'm saying?
Speaker 105 No, no, but what did Debo say?
Speaker 92 He just keeps talking shit. What is he saying?
Speaker 74 Well, he keeps talking shit on James Bradbury. He says
Speaker 74
James Bradbury is trash. And then people keep asking me about it.
He's like, I said what I said, and I'll say it again.
Speaker 62 Do you think James Bradbury is trash?
Speaker 74 He's not having a great year, but last year he wasn't trash.
Speaker 8 So you're talking shit.
Speaker 143 Talking shit. I didn't say he's trash.
Speaker 108 I said he's not having a great year.
Speaker 31 He was the guy who had the penalty at the end of the game in the Super Bowl.
Speaker 74 That was a fake-ass penalty. Who was it, though?
Speaker 74 That was a fake-ass penalty.
Speaker 74 It was James Bradbury.
Speaker 124 But he had a good year last year.
Speaker 21
But if you're a Stefanski, this is the best news you could hope for: to be underdogs at home. Wait, Siriani.
Siriani. I always mix those two up.
Siriani is absolutely jacked up.
Speaker 21
He gets to put on like Rocky in the locker room. Here's what it's like to be an underdog in this city.
He gets to lean into it big time.
Speaker 115 I just,
Speaker 20 Max isn't going to like what I say.
Speaker 55 He's going to jump down my throat if I say anything.
Speaker 119 No, say it.
Speaker 24 The Eagles have, the defense, especially, they played 92 snaps on Sunday.
Speaker 135 Okay.
Speaker 20 That's a lot of snaps.
Speaker 17 They had a big win against the Chiefs on Monday.
Speaker 99 I just feel like this is, I feel like the Niners have this game circled more than the Eagles can.
Speaker 48 And I think that this will be the NFC Championship game, and the Eagles will probably beat them in the NFC Championship game.
Speaker 17 But I feel like this Sunday it's Niners.
Speaker 8 Sure. Is that fair?
Speaker 74 I mean, I disagree. Okay.
Speaker 37 I also think that the Eagles are probably Texas in peak.
Speaker 18 Like, if you say the Eagles might lose 40.
Speaker 74 I didn't say you. No, I've stated,
Speaker 12 and I said, I disagree.
Speaker 31 Okay.
Speaker 21 Max, are are you pissed off at the 49ers that they've been doing a lot of uh like every media opportunity they get they talk about how they would have beaten the eagles in that game if they had a quarterback i i get it but like
Speaker 74 we still kicked their ass like i i get that they didn't have a quarterback we still put up points like they still couldn't stop the offense so like where what's what's that like where where's the explanation there
Speaker 21 yeah well their explanation is we didn't have a functional quarterback but how does that affect the defense? It doesn't.
Speaker 21 They're just saying like the entire game was thrown off and field position, all that shit. They couldn't.
Speaker 4 But that just means, like, okay.
Speaker 74 That just means that.
Speaker 21 You know that I'm agreeing with you on this. I'm not saying like if I was an Eagles fan, I would be upset by that.
Speaker 41 You're just getting,
Speaker 50 you're in your red zone.
Speaker 25 Like, it's Max gets, maybe it's the green zone where you become the Hulk.
Speaker 19 Whatever we say, you're just going to be like,
Speaker 74 I think if we were on the road, we would lose this game. But being at home
Speaker 44 helps.
Speaker 74 It's also supposed to be another rainy game, like shitty rainy game.
Speaker 23 I mean, that helps both teams.
Speaker 26
Yeah. I don't think that helps.
Yeah.
Speaker 39 The Niners can run the ball.
Speaker 74 Yeah, I know.
Speaker 74 Obviously, but I'm not saying that helps or hurts anything. I'm just, that's just an observation.
Speaker 21 Have you heard the Kelsey Christmas album?
Speaker 74 No, I did hear the song. I mean, I did hear the song Between the Brothers.
Speaker 21
Yeah, R.I.P. Shane McGowan.
They did the Pogues Fairy Tale of New York, but they did it about Philly. It was pretty good.
It was actually pretty good.
Speaker 74
There's also interesting Travis Kelsey singing about Philly. Yeah.
You know what I mean?
Speaker 12 Interesting.
Speaker 66 Well, his girlfriend's from there.
Speaker 38 Kind of. Kind of.
Speaker 74 Jason Kelsey has a beautiful voice. He's a beautiful man.
Speaker 21 Surprisingly good voice at all.
Speaker 145 Fall starts, though.
Speaker 21 Yeah, false starts were bad.
Speaker 21 I think he had the shit.
Speaker 74 I think he had the shit.
Speaker 21 We've all been there. Jordan Milata has a great voice, too.
Speaker 74 Jordan Milata actually has an incredible voice.
Speaker 108 It's not an incredible voice.
Speaker 74
Like, Jason Kelsey has a nice man's voice. Yeah.
Like, there's something. That's like the neighborhood bar guy who can get up on the karaoke and be like, oh, yeah, that guy's got a good voice.
Speaker 74 Jordan Milata has like
Speaker 96 real, real voice.
Speaker 21 He's singing Mariah Carey song, didn't he? Yeah, I mean, he's unreal.
Speaker 74 He's got talent.
Speaker 8 My man's got pipes.
Speaker 111 DFT, are you going to bet the Eagles in this game?
Speaker 21
I'm retired. Actually, no, I'm going to be unretired by Sunday.
Okay.
Speaker 8 I think.
Speaker 21 No, I'm going to bet the.
Speaker 28 Oh, you dick.
Speaker 34 I thought you were going to ask.
Speaker 42 You didn't even let me finish.
Speaker 48 You didn't let him finish.
Speaker 74 Well, you said no.
Speaker 21 I'm going to ask you the question. I'm going to bet props.
Speaker 66 Oh, there you go. Yeah.
Speaker 38 That means nothing to me.
Speaker 8 Okay.
Speaker 21 A lot of stuff doesn't make sense.
Speaker 15 All right. Yeah, that's also true.
Speaker 17 Nerd nugget time.
Speaker 107
Got tagged in this one a lot. This is game two in the 49ers.
Bird gauntlet of a schedule.
Speaker 128 Oh. Last week, Seahawks.
Speaker 35 This week, Eagles.
Speaker 120 This is one you should have gotten, PFT.
Speaker 107 Then Cardinals.
Speaker 66 Then Ravens.
Speaker 21 PFT washed. I am washed.
Speaker 82 Yeah.
Speaker 21
I'm the bird gauntlet. But, Jake, I think you're misusing the term bird gauntlet because the true bird gauntlet is playing against every single bird team in the NFL.
You didn't mention the Falcons.
Speaker 8 Yeah, well, it's still a gauntlet.
Speaker 21 It is.
Speaker 32 It's not a game. It's not the complete.
Speaker 21
No, it's not a gauntlet. The bird gauntlet is playing against all of the bird teams, and no NFL team has ever beaten the bird gauntlet.
It's never happened.
Speaker 12 Never happened.
Speaker 107 I don't think it probably hasn't been scheduled. Yes, it has.
Speaker 124 Wrong.
Speaker 90 Wrong.
Speaker 8 Nerd nugget of the incorrect.
Speaker 146 Nerd nugget of the week.
Speaker 21 No team has ever beaten every bird team in a single season in in the history of the NFL. And it has been scheduled multiple times.
Speaker 128 Well,
Speaker 31 check your little spreadsheet.
Speaker 107 The Seahawks are twice here, so
Speaker 107 it could be six games.
Speaker 109 Yeah, it could be.
Speaker 8 Never happened.
Speaker 136 Okay.
Speaker 21 Check your bird fact.
Speaker 21 That's a bird brain on your part, Jake. Yeah.
Speaker 111 Okay, last game, Saturday Night Football.
Speaker 49 Chiefs, Packers.
Speaker 89 I think the Packers might be pretty good.
Speaker 82 No, the Packers are good.
Speaker 21 The Packers are fine.
Speaker 124 That's what I'll say about them.
Speaker 105 They're fine.
Speaker 53 Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 17 I mean, I'm excited to watch this game.
Speaker 21 I just hope Mahomes plays well.
Speaker 47 I think he will.
Speaker 89 Beats him.
Speaker 21 I think he will. I think the offense, they might have something going with Brashi Rice.
Speaker 109 Yeah.
Speaker 4 We did lose because the Flex
Speaker 58 Hanks team was the first team to ever get flexed out of Monday Night Football.
Speaker 17 They should actually have to announce it that way, too.
Speaker 64 Like, we're flexing out because of this team.
Speaker 134 Yeah.
Speaker 61 Because it wasn't the Chiefs.
Speaker 69 So we do lose the moment that we talked about, the Michelle Beisner-Buck moment where
Speaker 17 she's talking to Patrick Mahomes, being like, these guys are really coming along.
Speaker 45 So we'll have to find somewhere else. It'll happen.
Speaker 110 Yeah.
Speaker 21 I'm very confident in that. Did you see what Tyreek Hill said about leaving the Chiefs?
Speaker 17 Yeah, he didn't get invited over, right?
Speaker 21
He felt like he was their side piece. And he's never been a side piece before.
And Patrick Mahomes has Travis Kelsey over to his house all the time. and never had Tyreek Hill over, which sucks.
Speaker 110 Brutal. Like,
Speaker 21
I wonder what might have been. Did they just.
Well, they probably played a lot of Call of Duty with each other, right?
Speaker 48 Yeah, they were in LAN parties.
Speaker 14 It also matters, like, how much.
Speaker 24 Like, was Patrick Mahomes inviting Travis Kelsey over every week?
Speaker 22 Because then that is kind of fucked up.
Speaker 81 And that is weird. You know what I mean?
Speaker 64 Like, if it was like, oh, Travis Kelsey got invited over once that Tyreek Hill didn't.
Speaker 41 Yeah.
Speaker 26 Whatever.
Speaker 70 Grow up, dude.
Speaker 5 But, like, yeah, if they had, like, a standing date and he wasn't invited.
Speaker 45 That's messed up.
Speaker 21 I think all of you guys have been to my house, right? Yeah.
Speaker 49 Not Max. Yeah, not Max.
Speaker 21 Well, that's because i have a dog yeah don't let him want to come over don't let him factor fiction max i asked you to dog sit you said no it was over labor day weekend
Speaker 107 oh all right uh nerd nugget for the last game doo doo doo oh god nerd nugget of the week that was that was a worse one than the first time you did it you guys liked it part of my soul dies every time
Speaker 107 this one also went viral this weekend
Speaker 107
or this week. Aaron Rodgers in his first 11 games as a starter.
2,599 passing yards yards and 21 total touchdowns.
Speaker 107 Jordan Love in his first 11 games as a starter, 2,599 passing yards and 21 total touchdowns.
Speaker 21 It felt personal to the big cat that you made that the nerd nugget of the week. Yep.
Speaker 107 That doesn't say they won games.
Speaker 21 It just felt personal. It did.
Speaker 69 I took it personally.
Speaker 21 That could have been just any other nerd nugget.
Speaker 112 I took it very personally.
Speaker 21 You did the trumpets and everything.
Speaker 107
Well, I was extra proud this time. Because you were mocking it.
Because it was personal.
Speaker 104 Well, it deserves to be mocked.
Speaker 104 Get your bird.
Speaker 56 We need to keep the world in order.
Speaker 21 That was my bird nugget of the week.
Speaker 108 Bird nugget.
Speaker 120 Have it.
Speaker 65 Oh, you should come up with bird nuggets.
Speaker 26 I'll do it.
Speaker 146 But yeah, now I'm doing bird nugget of the week.
Speaker 12 For every bird team.
Speaker 21 Because, listen, I've been on the bird beat for a while.
Speaker 99 That's what I'm saying. That was yours.
Speaker 21 Well, it wasn't even a good one because it didn't involve. He missed the bird gauntlet.
Speaker 66 I didn't make the name up.
Speaker 21 Yeah, the bird gauntlet is a different thing. The bird gauntlet is
Speaker 107 blame the internet for making it up.
Speaker 21 That's the crown jewel.
Speaker 16 I'm just repeating.
Speaker 16 I'm not creating anything.
Speaker 91 It's the crown jewels counter up here.
Speaker 8 It's the crown jewel.
Speaker 71 Okay, let's jake for the record.
Speaker 21 I like the nerd nuggets. Thank you.
Speaker 138 I like the nerd nuggets.
Speaker 8 I didn't like that one.
Speaker 53 I didn't like that one. Fine.
Speaker 85 And I didn't like the sound.
Speaker 107 Well, I had an extra one for this game, just in case you stole this one. Or do it.
Speaker 107
Announcer Jinx. Kicker Harrison Bucker is a perfect 20 for 20 on field goals and 28 of 28 on extra points this season.
Another kicking performance this week.
Speaker 107 He'll be the first Chiefs kicker to ever be perfect through his first 12 games of a season and the seventh kicker in NFL history to do it.
Speaker 111 Okay, so he'll miss.
Speaker 21 That's pretty impressive.
Speaker 127 Yeah.
Speaker 41 Bet him to miss.
Speaker 26 That was cool. I might not, you know what?
Speaker 21 I might flip it and reverse it, get back in on the doinks.
Speaker 126 It hasn't been done since 2016, Justin Tucker.
Speaker 21 I might bet a doink.
Speaker 105 12 games.
Speaker 21 I might bet a doink.
Speaker 107 Can you do that for a regular season?
Speaker 21 I think for a standalone primetime game.
Speaker 66 We'll find it. You might be able to.
Speaker 118 It might snow.
Speaker 29 Might snow. Oh, doink in the snow.
Speaker 6 Doink in the snow would look great.
Speaker 21 Get a little like flurry of snow falling off the top of the goalpost. Yeah.
Speaker 24 That'd be nice.
Speaker 60 Okay, so let's do our picks.
Speaker 62 Give us the standings.
Speaker 18 We killed it last week.
Speaker 107 Yes, we went 14 and 4 as a group.
Speaker 109 Look at that. We know ball.
Speaker 48 We know ball.
Speaker 19 It also is one of those weeks where all the favorites covered. Yes.
Speaker 21 All the squares won.
Speaker 116 And I hate when I find that out on Monday where it's like, I had a great week.
Speaker 81 They're like, Vegas got killed.
Speaker 21 And then whatever happens the next week is going to be the complete opposite.
Speaker 107 So for the 15-minute opening act in Las Vegas between the booth, I have 14 and a half points. Max is 14.
Speaker 92 Memes is 13.
Speaker 128 Oh. Oh, tight race.
Speaker 44 Tight race.
Speaker 107
And the main event, one hour in Las Vegas. Big Cat, 15 and a half.
PFT, 15.
Speaker 8 Hank, 11.5. Oh.
Speaker 107
Hank did win the head-to-head against Big Cat for the Packers. That was huge.
That's a two-game swing.
Speaker 78 Good job, Hank.
Speaker 107 So we have 12 picks left, and Hank is down by three and a half points. Far from over.
Speaker 26 Yeah, I think. Far from over.
Speaker 21 I had the over in the Monday night game, right?
Speaker 113 Yes. That was an all-time pass.
Speaker 105 That was bad.
Speaker 112 That was bad.
Speaker 38 That was bad.
Speaker 45 Okay, who's going first?
Speaker 120 I believe it's Big Cat. Oh, okay.
Speaker 107
Oh, also, we have a pancake update. It's been a while.
Yeah. Pancakes.
Hank continues to dominate with 40.
Speaker 107
Max is 31. I have 29.
PFT, 24. Big Cat and Memes 23.
Speaker 26 Okay. Yay.
Speaker 21 What a comeback from your boy.
Speaker 73 All right. I'm going first.
Speaker 116 I'll take the Falcons minus two.
Speaker 47 They can't lose the Jets.
Speaker 11 Against the Jets.
Speaker 138 That's a good pick. So bad.
Speaker 77 It's a good pick. Am I second or last?
Speaker 64 You're last.
Speaker 21 I think I'm second, right? Yeah. Okay, I'm going to go with Road Dogs, the Denver Broncos, plus three and a half at the Houston Texans.
Speaker 107
I'm going to go with the Lions, minus four and a half against the Saints. They've been waiting on this since Thanksgiving.
They're going to crush them.
Speaker 8 Oh,
Speaker 40 crush them.
Speaker 74 I am going to take the Commies. Too many points at home.
Speaker 127 Wow. Nine and a half.
Speaker 99 Oh, he doesn't believe in his team.
Speaker 110 It's a shame.
Speaker 12 What?
Speaker 26 He doesn't believe in his team.
Speaker 21 You don't believe in the birds.
Speaker 79 Plus three was sitting right there.
Speaker 74 I never take the Eagles.
Speaker 87 Oh, okay.
Speaker 21 I think Max is feeling added pressure this week about this game because he's going to have to watch it. Yeah.
Speaker 119 And his foot sticks.
Speaker 74 My foot is pretty much better.
Speaker 20 Pretty much better.
Speaker 91 Pretty much better foot.
Speaker 8 Okay, memes.
Speaker 121 I'm going to go with Chargers minus five and a a half.
Speaker 110 Okay.
Speaker 50 Hank, double dip.
Speaker 77 Yeah, I'm going to go Chiefs minus six.
Speaker 136 Okay.
Speaker 77 And Browns, Rams under 40 and a half.
Speaker 108 Ooh, I like it.
Speaker 36 Spicy.
Speaker 153 New quarterback.
Speaker 20 Joe Flacco, he's not new.
Speaker 135 He's old.
Speaker 77
He's new for them. Yeah.
New system, not going to score.
Speaker 21 New system. Browns defense is good.
Speaker 77 Yeah.
Speaker 21 Joe Flacco is a system.
Speaker 56 Okay, memes.

Speaker 21 Listen, I will admit when Hank gets me, it's not often he does.
Speaker 4 I thought you knew because you kind of did like a little like, you know,
Speaker 82 here's what went through my mind.
Speaker 21 Okay, you were just talking shit about advertisers.
Speaker 21
I took a sip. I took a whiff of it with my nose, and I thought maybe I'd like, there was some dip spit or something weird in there.
I didn't want to say anything about it because it's body armor.
Speaker 21
So I put it down, and then you're like, take a little sip. I was like, I'll take a little sip of it.
So I just wet my waist
Speaker 48 with my own piss.

Way to go, Hank. Thank you.

Speaker 64 okay we now welcome on a very special guest not too special yeah i mean nfl mvp
Speaker 4 national champion yeah heisman trophy winner cool hack guy cool hack guy appreciate it it is cam newton appreciate it in the studio it's honor um yeah this is this is an honor to have you here it's a deal bro like i told you before like
Speaker 93 I fuck with the campaign that you guys are doing.
Speaker 158 I appreciate that.
Speaker 58 Oh, and here's Brandon Marshall. So Brandon Marshall's here as well.
Speaker 50 We just started.
Speaker 8 So these two guys are doing a tour.
Speaker 6 It's called the IM iconic tour.
Speaker 6 They're doing a show in Chicago.
Speaker 73 Where else we got on the tour?
Speaker 36 Well, before we even get into that, have you guys taken y'all's show on a tour?
Speaker 26
No. Down the road? We haven't.
We need to. Why?
Speaker 21 We're lazy.
Speaker 78 Yeah.
Speaker 36 Oh, my goodness. Yo, you guys are going to love it.
Speaker 71 So we travel a lot for work.
Speaker 60 Our thing with the tour is that we've always thought that if we were going to go on tour, we'd have to make a show that's different.
Speaker 6 Like we didn't want to just sit on couches and do our regular podcast. So then to come up with a unique show takes a lot of effort.
Speaker 27 We should do it.
Speaker 36
We should do it. It doesn't.
You know, I know you're asking us about to get into what we're doing here and everything. And that's exactly what we were able to do is come together and just like,
Speaker 95 you know,
Speaker 36
we're both creative, but in different ways, like super creative. And it's like, all right, we have 90 minutes.
What does this look like? Right. Right.
Speaker 36 Because you can go and it's just like sitting on couches and you think that you're going to see just Funky Funky Friday or Fortin One or, you know, I Am Athene. It's not that.
Speaker 36 It's like you get that, but then there's so many different elements. So
Speaker 8 that's cool.
Speaker 68 The live aspect to filling the audience.
Speaker 94 Yeah.
Speaker 159 You know, incorporating them too. Yeah.
Speaker 21 Do you have like any added visual aspects to it? Because that's something I thought about too.
Speaker 21 If we do a live show, it's like I would want to have something going on above us a little bit, make it look different in addition to being a different show.
Speaker 96 I think that's essential.
Speaker 159 We have a cigar roller. Nice.
Speaker 28 Ice. You dig a cigar.
Speaker 24 So how many tours dates are you doing?
Speaker 6 Because that's the other part of it, is that we wouldn't want to do a tour if we, like,
Speaker 23 we try to talk in a national way in terms of sports.
Speaker 69 Like, obviously, we have our teams, but we would feel like if we did, like, a two- or three-stop tour, a lot of our fans would be like, what the fuck?
Speaker 57 Why don't you come to our team?
Speaker 159 The other dates are undisclosed at this particular moment.
Speaker 98 Okay, I like that.
Speaker 100 But we can tell you that this is one of three shows that's leading to the fourth show in Vegas for sure.
Speaker 21 Oh, we're actually going to do a live show in Vegas.
Speaker 110 Oh, yeah.
Speaker 8 There you go.
Speaker 21 Our buddy Hank is going to
Speaker 21
do an hour of stand-up. Yeah.
He's done stand-up before. Yeah.
Speaker 28 Wow.
Speaker 36 We're excited about it.
Speaker 36
You know, it's going to be pretty cool. And it's like how you guys are thinking.
And I hate saying this, like, we're here in Chicago.
Speaker 36 So tomorrow, Wednesday, at City Winery for people who want to get their tickets and come out and experience it, it's going to be an experience for sure.
Speaker 36
But what I hate saying is, it's like, you know, it's going to be phenomenal tomorrow. But as you grow and go, like, so much more you learn.
And it's just going to get bigger and bigger.
Speaker 36 Like when you talk about like the elements, you know, video boards and things like that.
Speaker 28 Yeah.
Speaker 36 You know, we're going to start adding some cool things because we're going to learn as we go.
Speaker 94 Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 76 I like that.
Speaker 26 I like that.
Speaker 66 Cam, are you retired?
Speaker 159 Good question.
Speaker 111 No. No.
Speaker 1 Officially not retired.
Speaker 6 Have you been getting phone calls?
Speaker 159 No.
Speaker 29 What's up with that?
Speaker 63 I don't know.
Speaker 159 I don't think I would ever retire.
Speaker 8 Oh.
Speaker 93 Yeah, that's good. I'm one of those guys.
Speaker 21 I could see Cam just coming back when you're 45 years old.
Speaker 28 Not 45.
Speaker 129 By that time, I would have probably pulled a barstool move and made some real big strides in the media space.
Speaker 93 If I were to come back at that particular point in time, it would be just.
Speaker 162 For the fans. It would be like Draymond Green.
Speaker 21 You could do a podcast and also play.
Speaker 163 No, or like that.
Speaker 33 No, you did it.
Speaker 36
You did it. That's where Funky Friday was created.
Yeah.
Speaker 28 When you was playing with the pets. I did, but I think,
Speaker 160 no, it's not Muste's.
Speaker 6 If you had to play a game on Sunday, Brandon, how many catches would you get?
Speaker 36 I mean,
Speaker 8 at tight end, I should get 10 catches.
Speaker 28 Receiver,
Speaker 28
three. Okay.
Yeah.
Speaker 36 Slant, back shoulder type.
Speaker 36
Yeah, it's different out there. Yeah.
it's definitely different. But tight end, you know, you've seen Gonzalez catch 110 balls when he was 40, right?
Speaker 16 Yeah.
Speaker 36 And it's just being savvy and understanding how to get in certain positions.
Speaker 100 That position wasn't abreast to his skill set either.
Speaker 93 I don't think he does that in this day and age.
Speaker 160 You don't think so?
Speaker 144 I don't think that
Speaker 132 while Tony Gonzalez was playing, I don't think the outside linebacker position/slash cover safety was up to par what his skill set was offering.
Speaker 132 Guys like, you know, Tony Gonzalez, Esk, Shannon Sharp, Esk.
Speaker 36 Antonio Gates.
Speaker 165 Antonio Gates
Speaker 158 made ways for Greg Olson, Travis Kelsey, George Kittle.
Speaker 7 But teams were forced.
Speaker 167 Rob Grankowski, how can we forget?
Speaker 152 Yeah,
Speaker 152 that forced teams to
Speaker 7 get prepared for this movement of tight ends.
Speaker 9 Now we have National Tight End Day and things like that because these guys are really X factors in the space.
Speaker 36 So you're saying I won't get 10 catches based on what you're saying.
Speaker 168 I'm saying you will not.
Speaker 95 That's basically what he said. He said all that to say is Kim, I won't get 10 catches.
Speaker 113 They get three.
Speaker 21 Is Kim always a hater like this?
Speaker 28 No, he's a realist. I'm a realist.
Speaker 36 But I disagree with him because,
Speaker 36 you know, it's like, all right, stick, we call stick. Yeah, sticky.
Speaker 96 Right?
Speaker 80 Any of those routes. Like, come on.
Speaker 158 In coverage, that's an easy.
Speaker 36 And then I also like my matchup versus a safety. There's only probably.
Speaker 100 sticky, you're usually the linebacker there.
Speaker 28 But I'm saying like
Speaker 36
for sure, but that's like zone. Like, I can sit at any zone.
I'll see it and be able to get right there. But I'm talking about even if I have like
Speaker 36 you put me outside,
Speaker 36 you put me outside, and I'm matched up one-on-one versus a safety, you don't like me on a go ball back shoulder?
Speaker 129 I don't think that even happens
Speaker 93 with that.
Speaker 94 Why?
Speaker 7 Now, third and two to short, you could get that matchup.
Speaker 128 Oh, there we go. Yeah, one.
Speaker 26 There's one.
Speaker 111 There's a catch.
Speaker 84 There you go.
Speaker 8 Yeah, there's one.
Speaker 143 But now
Speaker 132 my question is to him, it's not how many catches you would have.
Speaker 158 It's how many yards would you have?
Speaker 100 Because that catches is like sticky is going to average out about six to ten yards with a broken tackle.
Speaker 36
Oh, I'm still right now to this day. Like, I'll go run.
I can run 20 miles per hour.
Speaker 36
My speed is still there. The problem is when you get older, can you stop? Right.
Yeah. That's the problem.
And then actually, that quick twitch muscle at the line of scrimmage.
Speaker 36 That's what I'm talking about in the matchup at wide receiver.
Speaker 36 But if I get the ball in my hand, well, no, the other problem is, can you take a hit?
Speaker 94 Yeah, the
Speaker 16 other thing.
Speaker 34 You get up here and be like, oh, you hit me.
Speaker 95 Like, yo.
Speaker 21 Your yak would probably be like negative.
Speaker 48 Yeah, right.
Speaker 8 Like, I don't want to get hit.
Speaker 95 Yeah, for sure.
Speaker 151 But even really for you, like, you play that sport where
Speaker 103 you could get down.
Speaker 132 You know what I'm saying? It's like catch, get down.
Speaker 51 Tyler Lockett.
Speaker 126 Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 65 Tyler Lockett does it. Yeah,
Speaker 26 Tony did that a lot.
Speaker 144 He was not a bruiser. Greg was like that, too.
Speaker 158 He was not like one of those guys that's going to deliver the blow.
Speaker 137 Gronk was a guy that was like, ouch, that hurts.
Speaker 148 I'm going to keep battering and boom, boom, boom.
Speaker 38 Yeah.
Speaker 105 Hold on, Tom.
Speaker 36 Let's get back to camera quick. Because I've been asking him this question
Speaker 36 every time I get an opportunity. So, you know what I feel? My gut says that because, like, he's built in his empire media.
Speaker 36 I feel like this offseason, you're going to like put pressure on.
Speaker 145 You ain't putting pressure on nobody right now.
Speaker 72 Oh, you're going to maybe work out.
Speaker 4 Yeah, I feel like it's like, oh, yes.
Speaker 36 I feel like next year is the year you're going to put pressure on people, and you're going to be back in the NFL next year.
Speaker 152 That's not too far off.
Speaker 78 See what I'm saying?
Speaker 37 He has a plan.
Speaker 8 That's not too far off.
Speaker 159 I'm just waiting on somebody to tick me off.
Speaker 165 Yeah.
Speaker 8 Oh.
Speaker 48 Oh, you want us to do it?
Speaker 12 Yeah.
Speaker 48 I don't think you got any more.
Speaker 8 Him sucks.
Speaker 32 I think he cares too much about off the pace. That
Speaker 80 He was so bad on the pace.
Speaker 87 Yeah, I really wasn't, though. Look at him.
Speaker 34 See, we're getting to him.
Speaker 34 Here comes the comeback. Look at him now.
Speaker 12 Cam Noon just doesn't love football.
Speaker 158 No, I think really for me, it's one of those situations where
Speaker 98 if I'm moved by it, I'm going to get moved by it.
Speaker 21
Right. You know what I'm saying? Right spot, right place, right time.
You can fire up like an Instagram video of you working out with that unusual
Speaker 95 font underneath.
Speaker 48 The font.
Speaker 21 Can we talk about the font?
Speaker 87 Yeah, so I post my way.
Speaker 98 Go download the app right now.
Speaker 150 It's 99 cents.
Speaker 8 You have an app for it?
Speaker 31 And you can write like camera? It's an app.
Speaker 98 It's a keyboard.
Speaker 87 People always ask, how do you type so fast?
Speaker 148 If you were to look at my phone right now and pull up how I type, it's a keyboard.
Speaker 100 So it kids me,
Speaker 94 and stuff like that.
Speaker 8 How did you start doing this?
Speaker 28 What?
Speaker 94 It's my app, bro.
Speaker 21 What was the start of this? At one point, did you sit down and you're like, hey, regular text just doesn't have enough flavor to me. Like, I want to make my own fucked up alphabet.
Speaker 159 No, it's not fucked up.
Speaker 34 It's more or less.
Speaker 164 If If I were to give everybody a sheet of paper right now and I were to say, we love Jake, Blake Bradles.
Speaker 36 Yeah.
Speaker 94 And, you know, Barstool Sports Media, and everybody has to write that.
Speaker 51 We all wouldn't type it the same.
Speaker 129 We wouldn't write the same.
Speaker 159 Why should we type the same?
Speaker 143 So.
Speaker 28 Like handwriting. Yeah, but
Speaker 6 you're putting the onus on, like, does he text you in the weird font?
Speaker 37 Bro, yes.
Speaker 72 Yeah.
Speaker 4 You put the onus on everyone else.
Speaker 26 Yeah. Huh?
Speaker 60 We all have to, like, when we read it, it's like, what is this?
Speaker 148 It's one of those things that, yo, we're not used to seeing media like this until Barstool was created.
Speaker 98 Okay. Now it's like, get a line.
Speaker 26 Fines, yeah.
Speaker 76 You see what I'm saying?
Speaker 148 So.
Speaker 104 Do you ever text Real?
Speaker 166 No.
Speaker 120 Never. No.
Speaker 98 Like, what if it's an emergency?
Speaker 42 Like, call the ambulance.
Speaker 4 You're going to do that weird text, and people are like, what is this?
Speaker 163 This is my mom.
Speaker 26 Look,
Speaker 26 let me see.
Speaker 21 Fill out your taxes online on TurboTax. You use the fucked up phone.
Speaker 159 You pay people to do that. Yeah, for that.
Speaker 94 Yeah,
Speaker 34 you're rich.
Speaker 84 That's incredible.
Speaker 159 But this was the time I created it around 2016 when everybody was creating apps.
Speaker 7 Remember Kimoji? Remember
Speaker 148 Steph Moji? Yes.
Speaker 132 Like all these different things.
Speaker 93 And I was like, yo, I don't want to just create a bunch of avatars.
Speaker 164 I was like, yo, I want to do something that I'm going to
Speaker 140 use. Right.
Speaker 63 And
Speaker 159 it was going strong at the time.
Speaker 68 It was like, yo, like I type and I didn't know how many different versions of A it was.
Speaker 128 Yeah.
Speaker 93 And I was like, yo, how many is A?
Speaker 165 Then you got E, then you got I.
Speaker 132 I'm like, yo, I've never seen a Y like that.
Speaker 8 I was like, yo, I want to create my own app where I could type like this and then boom.
Speaker 12 I kind of respect that.
Speaker 21 So did you ever text Belichick with that?
Speaker 94 Of course.
Speaker 21 Did he ask you any follow-up questions?
Speaker 32 Or he was like, maybe my phone's broken.
Speaker 84 Well, no, no, I recant that.
Speaker 87 Not Belichick or Kraft, but initially, but over time, it was one of them.
Speaker 48 Once you got to know them.
Speaker 132 Once they got to know me, right?
Speaker 86 Hold on.
Speaker 51 So
Speaker 36 you text them in regular font initially?
Speaker 37 Until the
Speaker 37 pooling out process?
Speaker 72 Yes.
Speaker 98
Okay. Yes.
Because I didn't.
Speaker 159 Look, everything about Cam Newton, in some ways, Brandon Marshall is like,
Speaker 158 okay, is he who we here he is?
Speaker 129 And I didn't want to kind of spook him a little bit. You know what I'm saying?
Speaker 4 That would have been dope if you like off the top.
Speaker 8 Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 51 Here you go. Boom.
Speaker 72 Like, ready to go, coach.
Speaker 21 What's up, coach? Let's get this yeah let's get it
Speaker 36 what's the uh what is it do seki's most interesting man man in the world yeah do you think that i feel like you might be top five of what in the world and he should probably do the spot now yeah interesting man in the world you never see the do secky's commercial yeah uh
Speaker 36 people bow down in his brand yes yes people praise yes but no i i i think really i don't drink by the way well the reason why i said that is because like the hats and you know the tour
Speaker 36
you know now we're spending a lot of time together. You know what I mean? We talk damn near every day, it feels like, or at least texting with the font, the crazy font.
And so, like,
Speaker 42 he might hit me at 8:30 in the morning.
Speaker 36 He has the hat on.
Speaker 37 Yeah.
Speaker 36
He has the bow tie on or something. Like, he's always dressed up.
He's texting in this font. You know, people always ask that question, like, really?
Speaker 36
Because sometimes I'll post like a little screen grab or whatnot. That's why I said, like, you might be the most interesting dude.
It definitely is sports.
Speaker 50 Wait, so the hat, I have a question about it.
Speaker 6 We have a theory, and this is from a fan's perspective.
Speaker 1 Did you ever bring a losing outfit too?
Speaker 6 Because when you lose a game and then you're wearing a yellow suit and a weird feather hat, fans are like, what the fuck?
Speaker 6 Did you ever think about bringing like a losing suit?
Speaker 8 Never. Never?
Speaker 170 Never.
Speaker 159 You know, one of the things that
Speaker 98 when people who knew me knew that whole Super Bowl post-game interview. Yeah.
Speaker 159 They knew something was wrong because I never enter a post-game without being dressed.
Speaker 160 Right.
Speaker 93 I was still in my field attire.
Speaker 158 Yeah.
Speaker 88 I was just...
Speaker 159 But to that point, I never wanted to distract myself from the only focus being winning.
Speaker 93 So bringing a backup outfit would have distracted me to say, well, what if we do lose?
Speaker 158 I may don't want to look like, fuck that.
Speaker 6 Even maybe get like a trainer, like one of the trainers to like have just like a a sweatsuit.
Speaker 24 You don't have to pack it.
Speaker 36 Like, here, Cam, I got you just in case.
Speaker 21 Borrow something.
Speaker 146 If anything, you throw three picks, maybe we'll go a sweatsuit.
Speaker 151 If anything, I would do the interview
Speaker 86 in my outfit. And then on our way back home, I would then change.
Speaker 34 I didn't change the shit.
Speaker 21 By the way, you put on a bow tie at like 8 a.m.
Speaker 129 Yes, 7 a.m.
Speaker 148 when I'm taking the kids to school.
Speaker 21 Do you get dressed up to go to sleep?
Speaker 132 I get dressed up. No, I get.
Speaker 95 That's a great question.
Speaker 36 Yeah.
Speaker 105 Do you wear pajamas to sleep?
Speaker 113 Are you fast when I'm going to sleep?
Speaker 8 That's a great question.
Speaker 28 I like you.
Speaker 21 I like you too, Brandon.
Speaker 95 You what? I sleep naked.
Speaker 8
Okay, cool. Oh, nice.
Me too.
Speaker 8 Yeah.
Speaker 21 We're going to get back to camping.
Speaker 3 What's up, guys?
Speaker 104 It's Big Cat here making my Irish entrance with proper number 12 Irish whiskey.
Speaker 18 How do you make an Irish entrance, you ask?
Speaker 17 It starts with a shot of proper number 12 Irish whiskey because real friends don't let friends Irish exit a party without a story to tell.
Speaker 18 Original proper number 12 is rich in a smooth blend of golden grain and single malt.
Speaker 59 Age four years in bourbon barrels.
Speaker 2 Mix it up with some ginger ale for a classic and refreshing proper ginger.
Speaker 17 In the mood for something smooth but a little sweeter, try proper Irish apple, a delicious blend of proper's award-winning Irish whiskey with crisp, fresh notes of apple.
Speaker 104 So get out there and make your Irish entrance.
Speaker 15 Anything else just wouldn't be proper.
Speaker 69 A clip the other day where you were talking about
Speaker 80 your penis. I'm saying it was small.
Speaker 94 No, it's average.
Speaker 66 Okay, I don't like that you did, yeah, because I know that it's probably not small, and I don't like you like you're encroaching on small guy dick territory.
Speaker 123 I do have a small penis.
Speaker 148 We're encroaching on suspect conversations.
Speaker 80 No, I'm just saying you're the one who started it.
Speaker 87 No, he started it.
Speaker 50 No, but you started it with the clip.
Speaker 21 Wait, I'm just going to look up and see who started it. Cam Newton penis.
Speaker 16 But it's this one
Speaker 31 where it's like, who said it first? Like, I challenge that.
Speaker 4 VFT, it's bullshit because he's like, oh, I'm average.
Speaker 1 Like, no, that's not fair because I have a small piece. That's not.
Speaker 8 You can hit every small block.
Speaker 21 Every man hero, Cam Newton, proudly states he has a very average parasite.
Speaker 21 We're talking six inches?
Speaker 95 We're talking. Yeah, his average.
Speaker 99 Well, is it average for your body size?
Speaker 21 Because that's different.
Speaker 16 Let's move forward. No, no, no.
Speaker 21 If you've got a six-inch dick and you're six foot six, then that looks tiny.
Speaker 150 Listen, if you really want to find out, make sure you come to City Winery
Speaker 33 on Wednesday
Speaker 96 at 7.30. I'll be happy to
Speaker 132 give more insight to this question.
Speaker 165 And somebody will be finding out later that night.
Speaker 50 So, Brandon,
Speaker 72 your I am athlete, what you built has been awesome.
Speaker 111 Yes.
Speaker 51 What's the status of the beef right now that went viral a couple weeks ago?
Speaker 36 I forgave them.
Speaker 99 Okay, so what was the genesis of the beef?
Speaker 12 Yeah, because
Speaker 36 Cam Newton, he's really encouraged me to forgive. And the Bible says, you know, 77 times.
Speaker 36
Seven times. 77 times.
No, it's not that. I'm just messing around.
Look,
Speaker 36 we did something special. And
Speaker 3 what was the, to give the backstory? Business.
Speaker 36 I don't know. It's just business, right? Like, you know, when you start out, hey,
Speaker 36 let's go sell a show, right?
Speaker 36 And, you know, there's no deals
Speaker 36
on the table. There's no contract signed.
And then, boom, it turns into this cultural, social phenomenon.
Speaker 94 things change right and so i say something yep
Speaker 173 brandon marshall
Speaker 165 has not and did not do bad business right brandon marshall is a is a
Speaker 8 person who mismanaged business that's a good i like how you did that so
Speaker 148 not signing contracts That's not bad business.
Speaker 132 That's just mismanagement.
Speaker 1 And it's also if you have friends involved, it's always a little bit of a business.
Speaker 173 It can be conflict of interest.
Speaker 8 Right, you go. It's a conflict of interest.
Speaker 137 But as you know, you guys built this empire of Barstool that we see Barstool Auburn, we see Barstool fucking nanny.
Speaker 148 It's so many different prefixes of Barstool
Speaker 68 that we see now.
Speaker 148 Trying to buy shares or trying to buy a piece of the company today is different than trying to buy a piece of the company at 2012. That's facts.
Speaker 165 And I think when you see his situation,
Speaker 171 it's kind of tangled when it shouldn't be that hard to just say, like, yo, bro, I wish we would have had more of
Speaker 68 understanding of what the real is.
Speaker 51 Foresight of, yeah, rather than just pushing it back, like, yo, we were doing a tour, you know, hold on, we're handling this after.
Speaker 98 And then after that, it's something else. It takes on
Speaker 48 the first time, too.
Speaker 124 Said it again.
Speaker 21 When you're doing it for the first time, you don't know what you don't know into it.
Speaker 36
Yeah, I mean, the vision was just to sell the show. That was it.
I wasn't thinking about building a platform and, you know, even morphing into where you guys are at today. That wasn't even it.
Speaker 36 It was like when I went out there and we started having conversations, started learning. And people were like, well, we want to own 60% of the IP.
Speaker 28 Yeah.
Speaker 36
No, this is during a time of the pandemic where a lot of artists were talking about ownership and owning your IP. And so you start learning and then you just grow.
You get stronger. You get smarter.
Speaker 36 But I would say after the first,
Speaker 36 you know, once we got into it, we definitely invested maybe we invested a lot of of money into you know offers and contracts you me yeah and and no one else put in money so like that's yeah that makes sense like i when i was listening you explain it i was like and so you've forgiven the guys here's the here's the reality this i'll say this and then we could like i'm i'm like kind of moving on okay this is what i would say it's like you know
Speaker 36 What I've learned, right, in this process, it's not bad business, like what Cam said.
Speaker 36 I've done things that were bad for business, right? And what that means is, you know, sometimes just taking things too personal, right?
Speaker 36 Sitting down with some of the guys and, you know, after six, seven months, having certain conversations, then it's like.
Speaker 36
You know, we're back in the locker room or we're on the field in that conversation. Like, no, like, this is business, boardroom talk.
You got to be able to separate the two.
Speaker 36 You can't take this personal. So there's times I may have said things, my tone have changed, and
Speaker 36 that's what's been bad for business, business, right?
Speaker 36 Yeah, um, but no, we've invested hundreds of thousands of dollars just in interneys coming in and building out platform and infrastructure and all of those things, so they're in a great place, like they're crushing it, you know.
Speaker 36 And for me, my journey is a little different. Like, I didn't now I'm not building podcasts, I'm building platform, and so it's going to look a little different, but for sure we'll get there.
Speaker 36 And it's a different type of sacrifice, it's a different type of risk. You know, I'm a real entrepreneur, and I've always been that way.
Speaker 36 And there's a lot of opportunities for us so um you know definitely a journey a lot a lot of key learnings and i think that it's going to help me as i move forward let's let's let me say this too because
Speaker 68 the the honesty in me cannot say this enough but let's be real uh real and and
Speaker 170 about this even though we didn't come on here to talk about this this is a part of his story yeah right and it's it's, and what I will hate for this to kind of spin off, and you guys take a soundbite that is like, oh, Brandon says he forgives, but he doesn't.
Speaker 10 Like, man, look, bro,
Speaker 103 I would love
Speaker 98 no other
Speaker 163 than
Speaker 159 everybody who has some type of emotion in regards to feeling a certain type of way, good, bad, or indifferent.
Speaker 118 Let's talk.
Speaker 44 Yeah.
Speaker 115 Yeah.
Speaker 90 And respectfully, I hate that it's
Speaker 165 just being extremely honest. Yeah.
Speaker 94 Black men
Speaker 148 making a mockery of business because we're coming together to do good business.
Speaker 98 And I love
Speaker 134 what
Speaker 149 Fred has become, Channing has become, Ryan has become.
Speaker 148 This whole space of media is so much out there for everybody to eat.
Speaker 151 And there's no need for us to say, man, fuck Barstool.
Speaker 173 Barstool ain't shit. Part of my take shit.
Speaker 173 They're fraternizing with part of my interruption. Like, bro, everybody has their own different
Speaker 148 of their different point of view for certain different things. And just me being around Brandon has just been a breath of fresh air because he's helped me so much.
Speaker 165 I can't say that enough.
Speaker 148 And I told him the only reason why I'm I'm inspired to go on tour was going on the I Am Athlete tour.
Speaker 68 I seen it. I was a guest.
Speaker 167 Speaking of guests, we have Vic Mensa as our guest
Speaker 122 for the show.
Speaker 122 But I saw that and I was like, yo, I need that.
Speaker 164 And I'm looking at my producer right now, Christian Myers, and she came by way of Brandon.
Speaker 28 Yeah.
Speaker 98 You know what I'm saying? And it's so much about life.
Speaker 148 Fuck business. It's about harmony.
Speaker 159 It's about how you two able to put differences aside to say, like, listen, bro, we have a due diligence to put a great product in screen.
Speaker 21 That's what we say at the start of every show. You know what I'm saying?
Speaker 76 Yeah, but it's incredible what you built, Brandon.
Speaker 73 Like, you should be very proud of it. For sure.
Speaker 21 It's been awesome to see because you can tell that people that have been guests on your show are immediate, they're comfortable. That's right.
Speaker 21 They're speaking in a way to you that they don't speak anywhere else in the media.
Speaker 21 And you see, like, when you guys were in the league, you talk to a reporter, you do an interview, you do a press conference.
Speaker 21 It's almost like you got the second thought going through your head the whole time of, okay, what am I not supposed to be saying right now?
Speaker 21 What are those guardrails that I can be touching? But when they're talking to you on your podcast, they seem to just open up right out of the gate.
Speaker 21 Is there any guess that after you were done with the interview and the cameras are off, just like you all exhale and you're like, that was some deep shit?
Speaker 7 Yeah.
Speaker 94 Yeah.
Speaker 87 I mean, I would say, like, I'm sorry, you asked this, I asked that question, but
Speaker 129 I know, I've known, gotten to know Brandon so well along this three to four month process that there was clips that we left out.
Speaker 148 And it wasn't to protect him or to not expose certain things.
Speaker 171 It was just like, yo, bro, like.
Speaker 100 Damn, we don't, we only got two hours to put a product together.
Speaker 171 Like, we should have had a part two, part three.
Speaker 148 But I think really for him, and I've called him out on so many different times where it's like, bro, you changing, man.
Speaker 164 Fuck that.
Speaker 88 We need that dog.
Speaker 16 I need yoga.
Speaker 28 I need fucking
Speaker 16 over the fence.
Speaker 21 That was a great punt, by the way. People don't talk about how great of a punt that was.
Speaker 21 I don't know if you were trying to get off the Broncos. I don't know what the situation was.
Speaker 80 It was James, right? Yeah.
Speaker 21 Behind the scenes, but you punted that ball.
Speaker 21 You hit that thing like 60 yards. That was a nice boot.
Speaker 28 Dang.
Speaker 36 It was a great punt.
Speaker 146 We got to get that dog back.
Speaker 72 Maybe Cam just should hold a picture of Robbie Gold and just show it to you, and then you get the dog back in you.
Speaker 105 Listen,
Speaker 36 it's a tough, it's a tough, it's tough. It's tough, right? Because like
Speaker 36
it's tough. It's tough.
Like, what works? Here's my goal. My goal is over the next two years, I want to morph into more with Cam's at, right?
Speaker 36 Meaning, over the next two years, I want to just do what I want to do, right? I want to do like 20, 30 episodes a year. People I really want to learn from.
Speaker 36 Putting out a show every Monday just because it's the business.
Speaker 36
I'm not into that, right? Like, I want to build a platform. I come in here, I'm inspired.
You know, you see the multiple sets. I can envision this athletes podcast, this athlete's show.
Speaker 36 You know, we have three, four, five, five-day-a-week shows live. Like, we're going to do that, right? And I'm more interested in that than being in front of the camera.
Speaker 36 And so, you got to move a little differently, but you always got to show up as yourself. So, you know,
Speaker 36 it's a learning process. That's what I always say.
Speaker 160 But throughout this process, and we can move on after this, but along this process, I think he's been the punching bag when he should have been getting his flowers.
Speaker 162 Yeah.
Speaker 21 Like, real shit. I think there's respect there, though.
Speaker 21 I think across the media landscape, people respect him. Yeah.
Speaker 6 And that's also just a part of the internet: when you put yourself out there, people will
Speaker 31 take you down.
Speaker 148 It's forever going to be a point of topic in regards to Brandon Bartholomew, Tyrone.
Speaker 113 It's the name he he's like, I like it.
Speaker 148 And while we got y'all's attention, before he gets to talking about the, make sure y'all come out to City Winery.
Speaker 163 Yeah, check it out.
Speaker 21
You mentioned Greg Olson a couple times. His name is in the news today.
I don't know if you saw this yet.
Speaker 21
You see that? There's a report that he wants to be the coach of the Carolina Panthers. What do you know about, like, we know Greg, we like Greg.
He's a good guy.
Speaker 21 Do you think he's got the right personality to be a head coach, or you think he's just, he wants to stay in the booth?
Speaker 21 But if your name's connected to a head coaching, I think it's a little premature, honestly speaking.
Speaker 148 Do I think he could be a head coach one day?
Speaker 122 Yes.
Speaker 160 I think he's extremely thorough.
Speaker 167 I think he's an ultimate professional.
Speaker 93 I think he prepares in ways that he doesn't get, or people don't even care to think of a tight end to be prepared that way.
Speaker 144 There's times where he finished the play before the play,
Speaker 7 the place prefix was even.
Speaker 165 given. It was like,
Speaker 173 what does this sound like?
Speaker 143 Hold on.
Speaker 176 Hey, guys, guys, hold on, hold on.
Speaker 173 No, we got empty gun trips left, like 695.
Speaker 38 Like, let's go, let's go, snap the ball.
Speaker 143 Like, that was who Greg is.
Speaker 21 That's pretty compression.
Speaker 143 You know, but I was with him.
Speaker 128 Like, he made me.
Speaker 98 You know what I'm saying?
Speaker 148 I made him.
Speaker 87 You know, that was a guy who, you know,
Speaker 144 those relationships in sports and life,
Speaker 155 you know,
Speaker 7 from his wife to his beautiful kids, his twins, like, you just see the man kind of grow.
Speaker 122 So
Speaker 144 do I think he gets the
Speaker 7 head coaching job for the Carolina Panthers?
Speaker 164 Who knows? If he gets it, I will probably be at more Panthers games for sure.
Speaker 36 Would you be the offensive court in there?
Speaker 129 No chance.
Speaker 36 And what offense would you run?
Speaker 143 I don't think a lot of offenses really lean on
Speaker 152 the impact of up-tempo offense.
Speaker 90 Yes.
Speaker 51 Yes. I would have that fucker in high gear.
Speaker 12 Yes.
Speaker 6 Now, the problem is complimentary football because I love whenever a team goes up tempo and don't let them sub and like just keep keep the pedal of the metal.
Speaker 6 But then if you go three and out and up tempo offense like multiple times and your defense is just on the field forever.
Speaker 6 That's why you know a little bit of why Chip Kelly in the NFL, maybe it didn't work out because once that once a defense starts stopping the up-tempo offense, it's like, wait, time of possession here.
Speaker 6 Like our defense is on the field for 70 snaps.
Speaker 164 this is crazy it's a different way of of of ball control yeah and whether it's up tempo or it's just ground and pound it's still controlling the clock yeah um
Speaker 86 but i'm a product of the
Speaker 63 the fruits of uptempo offense uh it forces teams to get prepared another thing to work on uh endurance in in a given week um but also and to the point that you was going to get to, we can get to it right now.
Speaker 162 I think a beneficiary who would benefit off of an up-tempo offense is Justin Fields.
Speaker 28 Yes.
Speaker 148 Because a tired lineman
Speaker 86 does not want to run around
Speaker 164 trying to chase a guarantee.
Speaker 4 He does look good when they go up tempo.
Speaker 80 He looks like a great offensive coordinator.
Speaker 78 Yeah.
Speaker 3 Are you guys
Speaker 64 think that Justin Fields, like the Bears should keep him?
Speaker 17 And I mean, you know, Brandon, how this city works with quarterbacks.
Speaker 6 It's not maybe the best relationship when it comes to like backup.
Speaker 72 Oh, we need to back up. We need to move on.
Speaker 36
Listen, I get so much love in Chicago. It's unbelievable.
I left for a couple of years, and coming back, you know, maybe it was a year or so ago, I forgot how much love was in Chicago. Okay.
Speaker 36 And that last year, we imploded, and it was tough.
Speaker 36 But damn, I came in September, watched Justin against the Packers opening day, and there was like 100 players there, and they recognized us at halftime, and behind Bucus, I got the second loudest ovation.
Speaker 36
And so, like, thanks for the love. But I got to say this, like, and they know, the city knows I'm always going to be real.
I wear my emotions on my sleeve.
Speaker 36 Leave fucking Justin alone.
Speaker 28 Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 36 Leave Justin alone. Get the right, get the coaching system right because I don't know if they need to, I'm not
Speaker 36 in the room.
Speaker 36 So I don't know if they need a new coach or the coach needs to adjust.
Speaker 20 Or an offensive coach.
Speaker 36
But what I'm saying is, Justin can be special. Justin is special.
Now I'm putting in the right situation. Leave him alone.
Speaker 80 Leave him alone.
Speaker 8 Let him play ball.
Speaker 8 Let him go out there and play.
Speaker 37 What you always say?
Speaker 177 Keep it super simple.
Speaker 73 Yeah.
Speaker 94 Yeah.
Speaker 6 No, it's true.
Speaker 4 When they do up tempo and they let him
Speaker 6 be himself, he looks great.
Speaker 24 When you can see that they're trying to make him a just a pocket passer it starts to break down a little bit see see this is this is the narrative of and I
Speaker 132 was kind of judged on this principle yeah people
Speaker 96 who think they know football or sports
Speaker 88 Peyton Manning did this league a disservice
Speaker 98 right okay by having like
Speaker 148 you know, 350 yards passing, you know, four touchdowns, the Brett Favre's of the world,
Speaker 34 All right.
Speaker 148 Here comes Michael Vick.
Speaker 149 Here comes a Cam Newton. Here comes Steve Young.
Speaker 153 Here comes these athletic quarterbacks that we're going to get the yards elsewhere.
Speaker 122 All right.
Speaker 103 So a typical winning stat line for Cam Newton is this.
Speaker 144 208, 215 yards passing, another 80 yards rushing,
Speaker 148 one touchdown, you know, either passing or running, and three touchdowns in total.
Speaker 171 Altogether, that's upwards of 300 yards in total offense.
Speaker 129 Not only that,
Speaker 68 it's controlling the clock, and you know, that gives, you know, there's chunk plays in there, but it's not the prototypical way we're used to seeing yards being made, right?
Speaker 164 Now, when you see Justin last night, right?
Speaker 171 He went 10 for 10, but he probably had like 42 yards in those 10 passes.
Speaker 165 Yeah.
Speaker 144 it's the it's it's confidence builders now you're throwing the ball out on smoke screens you're throwing the ball out on bubble screens you're throwing the screens you're throwing this you're throwing that but at the same time when it's time for him to say this is a justin fields moment
Speaker 132 get the out of his way he's now fresh to do that rather than i would hate systems like this hand the ball off one yard Hand the ball off again, a negative two yards.
Speaker 164 Now it's third and 12.
Speaker 98 Yeah, always behind.
Speaker 51 And I'm like, yo, bro,
Speaker 98
I'm not that guy. Right.
You know what I'm saying?
Speaker 87 Now you got these exotic blitz packages where it's like, hold on, set why they, hey, hold on, hold on.
Speaker 144 Hey, 52 is the Mike here.
Speaker 90 Why they easy, easy, easy.
Speaker 98 No, no, no, no, no, no. Hey, 38's to Mike.
Speaker 31 Hey, let's rover to 52.
Speaker 131 It's too much. Right.
Speaker 48 It's too much. Just let him go.
Speaker 108 Let them roll.
Speaker 36 So if it's not offensive coordinator, can it be offensive consultant? Teams just hire you to bring you in.
Speaker 37 That's a good one.
Speaker 80 You make a lot of money.
Speaker 26 And if the quarterback gets injured, you can be like, hey, I'm right.
Speaker 36 Like coaches and organizations
Speaker 36 need to listen to players more.
Speaker 86 That is not happening.
Speaker 8 It's a lot of.
Speaker 36 If I owned a team and I had a Josh Allen, I had a Justin
Speaker 8 Fields, I'm calling you.
Speaker 90 What do we do?
Speaker 80 Like, we got to learn from Cam Newton.
Speaker 36 He's in 2015 MVP.
Speaker 125 What are you talking about here?
Speaker 149 Yeah, but we got to turn the page, too.
Speaker 51 We got to turn the page.
Speaker 21 But you're not retired yet. Yeah, but you're not retired.
Speaker 32 Can't even turn the page.
Speaker 36 Do you know how to turn a page?
Speaker 86 Yeah, I'm already on the other page.
Speaker 21 Part of my take is sponsored by BetterHelp. This time of year can be a lot.
Speaker 147

Speaker 21
Awkward, real quick. Let's talk about Florida.
Let's talk about going to school down in Florida.
Speaker 21 I saw the look that you, I'm not going to ask you the bad stuff about Florida.
Speaker 21 But I do want to know just like how crazy was it being on campus with all those guys that we know now were playing there under Urban Meyer.
Speaker 21 I mean, you had like Tim Tebow, the Pounceys were down there, right? Of course.
Speaker 132 We're in the same draft class.
Speaker 94 I mean, recruiting class.
Speaker 21 It seems like it was the biggest collection of the biggest group of personalities you could ever imagine on campus at one place.
Speaker 162 Yeah.
Speaker 160 My second day on campus, they won a national championship and it forever
Speaker 160 like changed my mentality of college.
Speaker 94 Yeah.
Speaker 132 At 17 years old, I graduated early and I was on campus and classes were canceled because Florida was in the national championship, I think for the first time in like, I think a decade.
Speaker 7 I think it was a spur year. This is the last time.
Speaker 93 So I'm like, I'm going to class. I'm supposed to go to class.
Speaker 132 And I'm looking, oh, I think I'm in the right place. Oh, class is canceled.
Speaker 34 Wow.
Speaker 159 Got Pouncy Twins.
Speaker 87 Got Joe Hayden, Carlos Dunlap, myself, Aaron Hernandez, rest in peace.
Speaker 7 Steve Wilkes was a receiver from Lakeland, a mob black.
Speaker 162 It was seven of us.
Speaker 160 Brian Wagner, which was the number one quarterback from Junior College, he wasn't kind of in our thing because he was older.
Speaker 172 But we were all in the same dorms together.
Speaker 149 And I just remember that second day when they won at Chris League at the helm obviously Tim Tebow had a major impact with that and seeing that college experience went from University of Florida to Project X
Speaker 171 I was like wow my my time at Florida was everything was impeccable if it was up to me I would have never left Florida but the main reason why I went to Florida was not
Speaker 164 It's not happening. It wasn't manifesting for me.
Speaker 143 I went there to play football.
Speaker 7 I was never going to play football there
Speaker 86 in ways that I wanted to without hoping somebody got hurt.
Speaker 144 And I never wanted that to be,
Speaker 129 you know, like my M.O.
Speaker 166 I didn't never want to be like a hater.
Speaker 100 It's like I was a celebrated person.
Speaker 129 Like, people saw it later on in my career when somebody scored.
Speaker 144 I didn't give a damn who scored.
Speaker 100 I just was so excited about it.
Speaker 144 When Tebow went on
Speaker 164 that run to win a Heisman and the first, he was the youngest person to win a Heisman at that time, which was
Speaker 96 unbelievable.
Speaker 132 I wanted him to succeed.
Speaker 98 I just wanted to play two.
Speaker 152 And there wasn't enough footballs on the football field to do that.
Speaker 132 So exactly. So now I was like, yo, I just got to leave.
Speaker 98 Because even though, even putting more microscope to the situation,
Speaker 171 they didn't even identify who the backup was.
Speaker 164 And I was having a conversation with my dad.
Speaker 152 I was like, Pop,
Speaker 148 they can't even name the official backup.
Speaker 132 Why would I stay here the point is not to be the backup the point is to be the guy and i don't want to find myself in a situation as a junior or a senior and we're still platooning
Speaker 144 as as you know teammates which you know it is what it is but if i could have it my way uh this this would have happened had they beat lsu uh that year when I was at Auburn.
Speaker 162 I would have loved to play Florida in the SEC championship.
Speaker 152 Yeah.
Speaker 86 Oh my God.
Speaker 167 I was praying for that. Yes.
Speaker 98 It would have been so many emotions.
Speaker 21 What was your relationship like with Urban Meyer?
Speaker 7 It was stagnant for so many years.
Speaker 162 I mean, it's not like I got his number now, but
Speaker 7 the first time I seen Urban
Speaker 132 was at a Tim Tebow's
Speaker 152 event.
Speaker 7 I think it was like my third or fourth year in the NFL.
Speaker 165 And
Speaker 132 they weren't used to people leaving and having success. That was kind of their thing.
Speaker 158 It was like, well, what's better than Florida?
Speaker 94 Right.
Speaker 149 In 2008, it was Title Town USA.
Speaker 93 You had Joe Kim Noah in basketball, Tim Tebow, Chris Leake, and football.
Speaker 28 Dan Pilzerian.
Speaker 155 You know,
Speaker 152 a lot.
Speaker 63 And,
Speaker 164 you know, during that time, I didn't think that they knew a rose,
Speaker 88 you know, could be created from concrete.
Speaker 164 You know what I'm saying?
Speaker 100 It was just so hard to believe.
Speaker 7 So, when I thrust it back on the scene at Auburn, it was like, How could you let this guy leave?
Speaker 100 Yeah.
Speaker 100 And everybody was scrambling, like, no, he left because it was so many different reports about this, a stolen laptop of this or that or that.
Speaker 88 He still is doing.
Speaker 159 I was like, listen, bro.
Speaker 36 So, what happened when y'all see when he seen you at Tim Tebow's event? What did you say?
Speaker 148 I approached him.
Speaker 80 Okay, and what happened?
Speaker 159 I approached him.
Speaker 159 And I was like, man, listen, all bygones be bygones, bro.
Speaker 152 Coach, appreciate you.
Speaker 160 You raised me.
Speaker 159 And a lot of who I am, I owe it to Irvin Meyer and especially Tim Tebow.
Speaker 160 The mentality, the grit, the preparation, the attitude, the persona, all that. I learned it initially from University of Florida.
Speaker 148 And then when I went to Dreamy College, I would have been a fool not to take on those different
Speaker 167 attributes and ingredients, so to speak, because we had Percy Harvin, Brandon Spikes, Cornelius Ingram, Lewis Murphy, Major Wright, like that.
Speaker 36 Brandon Salary.
Speaker 98 Brandon Salary.
Speaker 144 No, Brandon Salary was gone. He was gone.
Speaker 7 But these guys were very big personality, hard-working guys that they made working hard cool.
Speaker 68 And I wasn't used to that.
Speaker 164 You know what I'm saying? Motherfucker, we're going to get up.
Speaker 8 We're going to work.
Speaker 113 We're going to whoop some ass. We're going to party.
Speaker 172 We're going to whoop some ass again.
Speaker 34 And I was like, oh, that's what we're doing.
Speaker 132 And boom, like they was doing it.
Speaker 68 I seen Joe Hayden literally, you know,
Speaker 144 lift two times his body weight as beer was seeping through his pores.
Speaker 100 That's how much
Speaker 26 that's what the deal was.
Speaker 100 It's like, yo, he parties hard, but he gets it, though.
Speaker 63 And
Speaker 175 shit,
Speaker 143 I fell in love with that type of mentality.
Speaker 167 So when I went to Dream College and I went to Auburn, I carried those same traits.
Speaker 165 Barring, I never drank still to this day.
Speaker 104 Never drank a beer?
Speaker 110
Never drank a beer. Not one.
Not
Speaker 175 in my life.
Speaker 152 Or any hard alcohol.
Speaker 129 I'll drink wine.
Speaker 26 Uh-huh. I mean, that's alcohol.
Speaker 12 That's basically a beer.
Speaker 8 Hard liquor, though.
Speaker 65 We got a guy here who
Speaker 66 talks about his sobriety and he still smokes weed and eats mushrooms.
Speaker 51 But that's not.
Speaker 129 That's not me. I've never
Speaker 36
before we switch topics real quick. Not Jersey Jerry, by the way.
That's Ben Mince talking about one more question here, and then you guys can take it wherever you want.
Speaker 100 Oh, shit. See?
Speaker 103 Bordos. Look at that.
Speaker 32 That's our guy.
Speaker 34 Yeah.
Speaker 34 I had that conversation.
Speaker 36 Which
Speaker 36 path was sweeter? The journey to the national championship or the journey to the Super Bowl?
Speaker 113 Good question.
Speaker 36 Because you got to think, as he's talking about
Speaker 36 leaving Florida, being there, then going to Auburn.
Speaker 125 Auburn, they were nothing.
Speaker 26 And that Iron Bowl was right from going there.
Speaker 36 It's almost like Kobe winning in it without Shaq, right?
Speaker 98 Can I flex? Yeah.
Speaker 96 Yeah.
Speaker 84 All right.
Speaker 94 Please.
Speaker 148 There was two times in my life where I could not do no wrong.
Speaker 164 And there was two times in my life that I was 14-0.
Speaker 160 Auburn, 2015.
Speaker 165 Yeah.
Speaker 159 Mike.
Speaker 36 That's crazy. We're undefeated.
Speaker 165 Undefeated.
Speaker 98 In the NFL. Like, I'm talking like,
Speaker 100 and had I, and this is a backstory, we lost a game that I did not practice that week.
Speaker 144 At that time, Carolina didn't have an indoor facility.
Speaker 86 So we were practicing, like we were doing like a lot of walkthroughs.
Speaker 152 The weather was bad.
Speaker 161 And then the day that it cleared up, my son, Chosen, was born.
Speaker 93 So I skipped practice and we were having these kind of FaceTime calls.
Speaker 160 Like we're putting this in.
Speaker 166 I was already in Atlanta.
Speaker 86 Thank God we played in Atlanta.
Speaker 163 And
Speaker 167 my girlfriend at the time had chosen.
Speaker 162 And I was like, yo, it's Christmas Eve.
Speaker 172 It was just so many different distractions.
Speaker 100 So had I had a great week of practice or a week of practice, you'd probably have been undefeated.
Speaker 84 Yeah, but I think
Speaker 152 it had to be Auburn.
Speaker 158 Yeah, I thought you would say that. That's sweet.
Speaker 65 Be credited with the title, yeah.
Speaker 163 Yeah, we won, but
Speaker 172 everybody knows Auburn is like the
Speaker 160 little brother to Alabama.
Speaker 165 And since day one,
Speaker 159 being on campus, it was like, but we almost beat Alabama.
Speaker 28 Right.
Speaker 38 You know, but we all, I'm like, man, motherfucker, this shit is always to beat the motherfucker.
Speaker 131 It ain't to compete, it's to beat.
Speaker 33 Yeah.
Speaker 63 And,
Speaker 155 you know,
Speaker 129 leading is something that I knew it wasn't going to be a verbal kind of leadership tactic.
Speaker 159 It was going to be a, I'm going to show you, motherfuckers,
Speaker 169 this is how I do it.
Speaker 164 You know what I'm saying?
Speaker 148 And as that season kept going,
Speaker 164 my life completely changed after that Saturday night game versus
Speaker 129 South Carolina, and I no longer could go to class.
Speaker 100 It was just a zoo.
Speaker 63 And
Speaker 144 I just remember people were so blown away by the fact that Auburn's winning.
Speaker 46 They've always had a good defense, but it's the offense.
Speaker 168 You know what I'm saying?
Speaker 158 And people also forget that I was only at Auburn for 12 months.
Speaker 10 Yeah.
Speaker 28 Dang, in and out.
Speaker 66 Left quite an impression.
Speaker 159 I mean, listen, what God has for you, bro, is for you.
Speaker 162 And there's no denying that.
Speaker 168 So, man, I made an impact.
Speaker 159 I just threw a quick jab and got the hell out of there.
Speaker 122 So
Speaker 152 that altered my approach to the NFL, too, because leaving Florida, I was at Florida longer than I was at any other school.
Speaker 100 So at Florida for two years, Juco for one year.
Speaker 164 We won a national championship in junior college as well.
Speaker 129 Then I won a national championship at Auburn, but I'm not.
Speaker 128 I don't have offseasons with people.
Speaker 148 You know what I'm saying?
Speaker 164 And like you guys know, like after this show, whatever, like you guys, families may connect or you may say, like, bro, it's Thursday, bro.
Speaker 144 Like, it's half off wings.
Speaker 68 Like, this is our deal.
Speaker 137 I never had that in college.
Speaker 68 Everybody was getting to know.
Speaker 132 It's like, hey, yo, I think that's Ken. That's the new quarterback, five-star guy.
Speaker 175 Yeah. Damn, he big as hell.
Speaker 28 He's like a ghost. Yeah.
Speaker 26 In and out.
Speaker 98 So when I got to Carolina, that was something that.
Speaker 159 My teammates was like, bro, you're going to be here for a long time, more than just a year.
Speaker 98 You got to lean into, you know people and relationships yeah interesting and it with me because you know
Speaker 7 i came on i came my fault but i came on a team where steve smith was trying to leave
Speaker 63 and
Speaker 7 he would he would tell me all the time he's like bro like
Speaker 164 i want to win yesterday right like i i don't want to rebuild i was about to rebuilding phases you know the majority of the times of the times that i was here
Speaker 144 and you know um jordan gross Ryan Khalil, these guys are really just saying like, bro, that's not it.
Speaker 88 No, you don't do that.
Speaker 144 You can't just go a week without talking to nobody.
Speaker 74 Like people, they saw Cam is
Speaker 144 sulking from,
Speaker 166 you know, losing and things like that.
Speaker 144 But the truth of the matter was that I didn't know how to lose because I didn't lose for two years.
Speaker 158 Yeah.
Speaker 90 Right.
Speaker 124 Think about that. That's a good mix.
Speaker 98 I never lost.
Speaker 31 It's like a prize fighter.
Speaker 164 You know what I'm saying?
Speaker 98 It's like I went to Juco and really for three years because when I first got to Florida, we won a national championship.
Speaker 8 Yeah.
Speaker 87 Then we had an off year, still won.
Speaker 144 And then that following year, Tebow wins the Heisman and we win the national championship again.
Speaker 152 That year I left.
Speaker 144 Now I'm taking those attributes and saying, all right, in Dream College, what am I going to do?
Speaker 129 Win. Okay, boom.
Speaker 144 We win a national championship there.
Speaker 8 Then when I got to Auburn, what are we going to do?
Speaker 129
Win. We won that.
And it was, I was already a professional prior to, like, I wasn't in the moment.
Speaker 84 Like,
Speaker 132 after the national championship, everybody went back to Auburn and they celebrated. They rolled Tomer Scorn and they had a good time.
Speaker 170 What I do, I go to fly to LA, and like the team's going to Auburn or Alabama.
Speaker 144 I'm flying to LA to do David Letterman.
Speaker 8 Yeah, right. Yeah.
Speaker 21
That's why you should never draft a quarterback who wins a lot in college. Yeah.
Draft a bunch, draft a loser.
Speaker 16 Interesting.
Speaker 8 No, and they'll be ready to lose in the NFL.
Speaker 173 But it's just still a process.
Speaker 132 It's still a process.
Speaker 159 And, man, that was some of the things that I had to do a lot of soul searching and realize like
Speaker 152 a lot of what I thought was winning energy is not.
Speaker 7 And it's a different monster in the NFL.
Speaker 144 And guys like Bryce Young have to know and like Justin Fields, it's a process from the fans, from ownership to the management.
Speaker 161 It's a process. And the
Speaker 143 best.
Speaker 144 That we can get them comfortable, the better off they're going to be.
Speaker 21 I'm curious to know, because you talked about forgiveness a couple times. Have you ever made forgiveness with Rosemary Plorin? Do you know who that is?
Speaker 21 Does that name ring a bell to you? She wrote a letter to the Charlotte Observer back in like 2015 because she took her daughter to a game. Do you remember this letter?
Speaker 95 Hold on.
Speaker 174 Were y'all just not talking about this?
Speaker 31 We're talking about celebrations. Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 169 And this was after the game of the Nashville Tennessee Titans.
Speaker 95 You are just talking about
Speaker 76 what she said what?
Speaker 21 So this is Rosemary's all-time letter to the editor. I actually think they sold
Speaker 21 like hundreds of thousands of papers because the letters to the editor regarding Cam Newton were
Speaker 112 mad. They were fire.
Speaker 21 Here's what Rosemary said. Because of where we sat, we had a close-up view of your conduct in the fourth quarter.
Speaker 21 The chest puffs, the pelvic thrusts, the arrogant struts, and the in-your-face taunting of both the Titans players and the fans. We saw it all.
Speaker 21 Because you're a role model, your behavior brought out the like behavior in the stands. Some of Panthers fans in our section began to taunt the hometown fans.
Speaker 21 Many Titans fans booed you, a few offering instructive but necessarily family-friendly suggestions on how you might change your behavior.
Speaker 21 My daughter sensed the change immediately and started asking questions. Won't he get in trouble for doing that? Is he trying to make people mad? Do you think he knows he looks like a spoiled brat?
Speaker 21 I didn't have great answers for her, and honestly, in an effort to minimize your negative impact and what was otherwise a really fun day, I redirected her attention to the cheerleaders and the mascot.
Speaker 21 So, because you, I think you dabbed, I think you dabbed in Rosemary's face.
Speaker 21 And she was like, that's disgusting. How do I explain that to my daughter?
Speaker 162 Well, the hip thrust, that's not a part of my celebration.
Speaker 21 She's talking about like your Elvis. Yeah.
Speaker 98 No,
Speaker 33 that,
Speaker 122 so
Speaker 96 that
Speaker 149 comment led to what we saw on the Thanksgiving game with the Cowboys because I think we played them next that following week.
Speaker 100 So I did the twist.
Speaker 28 Oh, yeah.
Speaker 132 That was like my kind of,
Speaker 132 hey, I heard you talking. Maybe I'm going to do a dance that you can relate to.
Speaker 163 And then, you know, do the little thing and then add my thing at the end.
Speaker 94 Yeah.
Speaker 98 So it never, I was so comfortable in my skin.
Speaker 158 I've always been the outcast, even in my family.
Speaker 63 And
Speaker 8 being
Speaker 149 misunderstood,
Speaker 63 being
Speaker 137 stereotyped.
Speaker 144 So when I see different,
Speaker 163 it doesn't make me go away like most people.
Speaker 164 If anything, it makes me
Speaker 93 interested into that person, that thing, that whatever it is.
Speaker 63 And hell,
Speaker 38 different.
Speaker 159 I'm like, yo, hold on, let me get my own perspective about what this is, right?
Speaker 152 And that article is just a perfect example of what my career was because
Speaker 132 a lot of people took chances on me.
Speaker 150 Brad Francion,
Speaker 163 my
Speaker 132 head coach at junior college,
Speaker 150 Gene Chizwick, Gus Malazon,
Speaker 100 Curtis Looper,
Speaker 159 Trooper Taylor, like these guys at Auburn.
Speaker 36 Chizik was the reason I landed at UCF, believe it. Yeah, Gene Chizwick.
Speaker 168 And even with Marty Herney and
Speaker 159 Ron Rivera drafting me, or BitCat,
Speaker 159 Mr.
Speaker 129 Richardson drafted me number one overall.
Speaker 68 Like, these things are a reason why it's like, bro,
Speaker 68 it's okay to be different, but I think I always say this, that's the number one reason why we have racism, prejudicieness, sexism, any type of grouping in this country.
Speaker 177 Because people aren't curious to find out for themselves.
Speaker 164 They make the preconceived notion, like, why does he wear his hair like that?
Speaker 177 Instead of saying, hey, Kim, like,
Speaker 10 are those dreadlocks?
Speaker 132 Rather than just saying, like, no, I don't like it.
Speaker 160 It looks snappy.
Speaker 36 You can ask the same question, though. So, like, what you're saying, you can be like, why are you wearing your hair like that?
Speaker 96 Or you can be like, why do you wear your hair like that?
Speaker 8 Yeah.
Speaker 36 Like, there's curiosity. Like, yeah, intellectual curiosity.
Speaker 42 Right.
Speaker 80 Something that's lost.
Speaker 98 I've had it so many different times where... No, they won't never say, like, why do you wear your hair like that?
Speaker 158 They just won't say it.
Speaker 37 No, that's what I'm saying, though.
Speaker 51 But to your point.
Speaker 4 Tell me why you wear your hair like that.
Speaker 36 Yeah, like like there's a curiosity to it then there's like a judgment to it right you can ask the same question there's i do want to say this real quick uh this dude i'm gonna give you your flowers you're really good at what you do we know you big cat we obviously know you guys have been doing this a long time but one you're a really good reader okay so rosemary you know
Speaker 36 and like you do your fucking bit your your your research i appreciate that you are super talented and i want to give you your flowers thank you thank you bro you guys are both really good appreciate that i appreciate flowers
Speaker 95 now and we We were having this conversation, right?
Speaker 172 So he was like, yo, bro, like, you're an athlete and you're doing all this media stuff.
Speaker 159 I'm like, no, bro, don't consider me an athlete.
Speaker 144 I'm a YouTuber.
Speaker 33 I like that.
Speaker 37 Hey, so Big Cat just fucked you with me.
Speaker 80 I just did my show.
Speaker 46 And then one of my producers was like, yo, can we just take a couple pictures for you?
Speaker 148 And then he don't even know what he did, but he just shit it on my whole parade.
Speaker 68 He was like, oh, YouTube.
Speaker 83 Yeah, no, it's a
Speaker 34 guys do it all the time.
Speaker 8 Yeah.
Speaker 16 YouTube.
Speaker 98 I remember those days.
Speaker 6 No, no, what it is, it's so funny because our guys do the same thing where they have a camera and they come up to you and they're like, all right, I need to take a couple pictures.
Speaker 125 And they're like, act mad, act happy, be surprised.
Speaker 4 And I'm like, this is a YouTube coming.
Speaker 95 But the way it was joking, but the way he said it,
Speaker 113 it was just so funny. Yeah, yeah, like
Speaker 78 YouTube. Yeah, I remember those days.
Speaker 72 I had one last question.
Speaker 6
This has been awesome. Everyone, do listen to I Am Athlete fourth and one.
Go out to the I Am Iconic Tour when they're in your city.
Speaker 136 My last question.
Speaker 101 This college football season, we are feeling the cheesiest with Cheez-It.
Speaker 178 The ultimate irresistible football watching snack. Cheez-It brings 100% real cheese and deliciousness to every game.
Speaker 101

Use code stool25 for 20% off your order.
Speaker 69 Theory that I stumbled upon a couple weeks ago with the Broncos.
Speaker 6 Right now, it applies to the Broncos. And I was like, as soon as we get another,
Speaker 6 you know, a couple guys on who played in the league, I'd love to get their take.
Speaker 60 The Broncos season has turned around because the theory is that trade deadline happens.
Speaker 2 They're supposedly sellers. They're going to sell everyone off.
Speaker 6
And then nothing really happens. And then they have everyone in that room and they're like, this is what we got.
And like, we no longer have to think about who's leaving, who's coming.
Speaker 6 What are we doing?
Speaker 73 Like, now we just got to figure it out ourselves.
Speaker 6
Did that happen in locker rooms where you had a moment in a season where it's like, okay, this is us. Like, we can't, we're not getting outside help.
No one's leaving. This is us.
Speaker 69 We got to go figure it out ourselves.
Speaker 36 Yeah, so I'm going to be very direct here
Speaker 36 as to why
Speaker 36 this season turned around.
Speaker 136 Okay.
Speaker 36
It starts with leadership, and it starts with one guy, Russell Wilson. This is a guy.
that walks into the locker room, into the facility every day, and he doesn't change.
Speaker 36 He doesn't fold even when it fucking hurts. Yeah, it's we've said
Speaker 36 hurt, yeah.
Speaker 59 He feels it, and that's leadership.
Speaker 36 I show up at this at the same time every day,
Speaker 36 win or lose. We're going to have this Tuesday meeting, win or lose.
Speaker 36 I'm pepping my step on the practice field, win or lose. You know how many people fold in those moments, change up?
Speaker 36 Player coaches try to act tough, tough coaches try to be player coaches. No,
Speaker 36 that's it. Now, obviously, defensively, they go from last year top five, then they turn into the worst defense in the league.
Speaker 174 Okay.
Speaker 36
And then all of a sudden, they switch Van Joseph. He turns it around.
So that's a big deal. Yeah.
16 turnovers through these five get this five-game win streak only giving up 20 points huge deal.
Speaker 36 But you got to understand, like, when a Cam Newton walks in the room, a Russell Wilson walk in the room, like, they're the, what is it, the thermostat.
Speaker 80 Like,
Speaker 36 they're the one that's going to set the tempo. So if you got your head down, everybody else is going to put their head down, pack it up.
Speaker 36 Russell Wilson, for two years, a year and a half, came in and just stayed the same. But he definitely felt it for sure.
Speaker 36 And so, my theory is that the turnaround happened because Russell Wilson and his unwavering faith never folded, even when it hurt.
Speaker 26 I like that because it's true.
Speaker 1 There were some tough times.
Speaker 4 He was getting shit on a lot, ourselves included.
Speaker 175 I think
Speaker 129 people don't give
Speaker 100 the respect to the process
Speaker 149 enough credit.
Speaker 152 And of course, leadership, right?
Speaker 28 But
Speaker 27 nobody
Speaker 170 believes or gives moral victories for losing.
Speaker 129 There's so many different times where a game was to be won if this would not have happened.
Speaker 160 Some mistakes are not, you can't come back from certain mistakes happening a blown coverage a holding penalty a bad play a la this past weekend auburn and alabama right those those games are decided some mistakes are forgiven some mistakes aren't certain processes with a team to say like yo we're three and five right now
Speaker 10 that doesn't make us a bad team We just had some bad breaks.
Speaker 31 That three and five, those five games that we lost may have been
Speaker 87 a great play by the opposing team,
Speaker 169 a missed holding call and coverage.
Speaker 166 Nobody cares about us not losing, you know, a one-score game, but the reality of it is we're not too far away, right?
Speaker 98 Sometimes
Speaker 164 you get rewarded for insufficiencies and calls, and sometimes you get punished for insufficiencies and calls.
Speaker 88 So with that being said, it's just like, it's not necessarily luck, it's just the process.
Speaker 171 When teams are bumping, they have a a good locker room, leadership is there, skill is there,
Speaker 68 that cohesion is there,
Speaker 63 and you see it.
Speaker 153 So, yeah, with the Denver Broncos, is it something to put your finger on one thing?
Speaker 171 It's like, no, it's like they never was off outside of the game with
Speaker 162 the Dolphins. They got the shit.
Speaker 36 And to your point, to Cam's point, to piggyback off of that, opening day, they played the Raiders 17-16.
Speaker 36 You know,
Speaker 36
how do we correct that? And you play the Commanders 35-33. And then you had a Dolphins game 70-20.
Big deal. But then you come back and you play the Bears.
You win 31-28.
Speaker 36 And then you lose to the Jets 31-21.
Speaker 80 These are all winnable games.
Speaker 36 And even if you watch, you know, the Broncos lose to the Chiefs. I think that was Thursday night football or Sunday night football was 18-19, but they were in that game until the fourth quarter.
Speaker 152 It's an afterthought. Yeah.
Speaker 98 People forget that. And I'm sorry, Coach.
Speaker 36 No, no, that's it. But it's like, that's, you know, it's like bringing the two together.
Speaker 36 It's like in that, like, when you are in the valley, when you're in the trenches, when you're faced with adversity, how do you show up?
Speaker 28 Right?
Speaker 36 I mean, some of the great ones that I've seen, like even Eli Manning, like end of my career, did the same thing every single day.
Speaker 36
He sat in the same seat every single day. He ate the same food every single day, no matter what.
I can't choose. He's just always say, I can't break routine.
Hey, bro, we just landed in Detroit.
Speaker 36
Let's go to dinner. I got to go get a massage.
I can't break routine. It's like, you know, so the leadership there has.
Speaker 165 I said this at dinner last night, and Mike Schuler told me this.
Speaker 164 It's never as good as you make it seem, and it's never as bad as you make it seem.
Speaker 100 It's about your perspective, though, right?
Speaker 63 And
Speaker 164 offensive football is the ultimate team sport, not defensive football, not special teams.
Speaker 129 It's offensive football.
Speaker 152 And when you sit back and you just think about so many different determining factors with football as a whole,
Speaker 73 the Greats, the Brady's, the Mannings,
Speaker 8 the,
Speaker 165 you name it, right?
Speaker 70 Bortles.
Speaker 110 Bortles, right?
Speaker 144 I'm pretty sure he's had, Blake Bortles were talking about,
Speaker 164 he could have been a Super Bowl-winning quarterback.
Speaker 21 He should have been.
Speaker 21 He got hosed in that AFC champion.
Speaker 155 Kimono.
Speaker 169 But nobody talks about that.
Speaker 88 That's the afterthought for so many different people.
Speaker 31 Those things, was it an on-site kicker?
Speaker 16 Miles Jack.
Speaker 94 Miles Jack was ruled down.
Speaker 21 He wasn't down.
Speaker 176 Those things, people don't remember.
Speaker 164 But when you go back and you watch these games, and for Thanksgiving, we saw
Speaker 84 they had
Speaker 96 the camback, the bowl, the Iron Bowl.
Speaker 177 And I remember looking at this game and i was saying i said what if he would have dropped that ball
Speaker 68 what if uh um antoon carter punched the ball out uh from mark ingram while he was running and the ball just rolled miraculously 20 yards to get a touchback i'm like yo these things don't like what if what if uh the charles woodson sack was called a fumble.
Speaker 152 Yeah, but a tuck rule.
Speaker 98 You know, what if Adam Vineteri would have just said, you know, fuck you.
Speaker 155 I'm going to miss this, you know, like
Speaker 98 it's what if it's so many what-ifs in sports that after you lose, no one cares.
Speaker 87 Yeah, and but the reality of it is it's not as good as you make it seem.
Speaker 177 It's not as bad as you make it seem.
Speaker 129 We're not too far off, fellas.
Speaker 8 Yeah, we're three and five
Speaker 98 as a record, but we're not a three and five football team.
Speaker 171 The great coaches will their guys to believe in that.
Speaker 25 The great players lead their team to saying, let's put this into perspective.
Speaker 148 We still have a chance.
Speaker 98 If you catch it sooner enough, those are
Speaker 87 forgivable mistakes.
Speaker 152 Leaning on rookies, like those, you get an asshole guy that comes in, first round draft pick.
Speaker 177 He's new to money. He's going to buy the Bentleys and the Roses and all things of that.
Speaker 164 It's like, motherfucker, hey, we need you to make sure that you know what you're supposed to do on these checks.
Speaker 144 Right, right, right. When I get corner cap, motherfucker, look, you running your regular route.
Speaker 143 I don't got time for you to run a 15-yard dig, bro.
Speaker 96 You got to do an auto-fade, bro.
Speaker 173 Coach went over that all week. Matter of fact, I'm going to tell you, when I tap my helmet, bro, even though it's going to be subtle, I see a three-tech in the shade right here.
Speaker 173 That's equivalent to third and six to eight.
Speaker 143 This coordinator loves this blitz.
Speaker 109 Yeah.
Speaker 98 He's blitzing off yours, like those things when they get it.
Speaker 134 Yeah.
Speaker 21 You've been watching tape, huh?
Speaker 82 He's been watching tape.
Speaker 28 Yeah, he's watching.
Speaker 95 I'm like, oh, shit. Okay,
Speaker 37 he's coming.
Speaker 95 Hey, you got it.
Speaker 28 That's a great answer, though.
Speaker 113 Yeah.
Speaker 87 But when you get guys like that and you're saying, like, yo, bro, hey, you do it.
Speaker 140 And then he sees it.
Speaker 46 But boom, he said, why did he say that?
Speaker 98 You're expecting him to run a back shoulder fade or the idol fade.
Speaker 176 You throw it in anticipation.
Speaker 173 It's a pick six. You come to the sideline, like, yo, bro, what's going on?
Speaker 98 You got an asshole rookie?
Speaker 95 Like, man, fuck that.
Speaker 98 Get out of my face. It's like, no, bro, that costs us the game.
Speaker 176 Right.
Speaker 173 We was trying to tell you this shit in Wednesday meeting, but you motherfucking looking at your phone, DMing chick.
Speaker 151 Like, you worried about your food.
Speaker 143 And fuck your food.
Speaker 176 Like those type of things, the ones who get it, they get it.
Speaker 21 Did you ever go too far with that?
Speaker 21 Like getting on somebody?
Speaker 103 I had to get some straightening.
Speaker 8 But a lot of people just think shit's sweet though, because of the hats and the outfits and things like that.
Speaker 6
Well, you guys have been crushing it. We appreciate you guys coming by.
Anytime you're in Chicago, we'd love to have you come by.
Speaker 100 Don't tell this guy that. Yeah.
Speaker 80 I am athlete, fourth and one.
Speaker 37 I'm coming tomorrow, though.
Speaker 66 I'm iconic.
Speaker 6 Tour yet.
Speaker 20 No, you guys can come tomorrow if you want. If you want to come by the
Speaker 172 cigars, too.
Speaker 98 Yeah.
Speaker 80 I need to shoot my shoulder. Oh, all right.
Speaker 83 Then you're in.
Speaker 123 All right. Thank you.
Speaker 4 Yeah, we got a studio for you.
Speaker 37 No problem. No problem.
Speaker 6 But yeah, Cam Newton, Brandon Marshall, thank you guys.
Speaker 18 We really appreciate it.

Speaker 119 You get trapped in the shower.
Speaker 21 Do you have body aches?
Speaker 110 You have COVID?
Speaker 36
I don't think so. I don't know.
I might just get tested.
Speaker 127 No, don't.
Speaker 143 But yeah,
Speaker 77 nothing too crazy this week.
Speaker 113 I don't want you to give it.
Speaker 12 I don't want you. Wait, wait.
Speaker 48 I don't want to give me COVID.
Speaker 77 Well, I just want to get better for this 24-hour stream.
Speaker 54 Jake is taking out his mask right now.
Speaker 90 No,
Speaker 107 I was looking at my backpack of medicines to see if I had anything that could help you.
Speaker 21 That would be funny if you had COVID and you gave it to Max during the live stream.
Speaker 77 But the 24-hour stream is
Speaker 66 yeah, it's gonna be fun.
Speaker 21 Whatever you have now, you're going to improve just enough to still be contagious and feel better and then give it to Max. I'm excited about that.
Speaker 77 Yeah, I'm not excited. It'll be, I'll, you know, try to make it as fun as possible.
Speaker 77 You guys had no phones, which is, you know, absolute bullshit because if it was one of you two, you would never allow that.
Speaker 48 What do you mean?
Speaker 77 You guys would never go 24 hours without your phones.
Speaker 26
Yeah, I wouldn't. Oh, Oh, you wouldn't.
No, and
Speaker 5 Hank brought this up to me when we were talking, and he goes, That's bullshit because you would never do that.
Speaker 17 And I said, You're right.
Speaker 21 I would personally do it. Yeah.
Speaker 51 And that's a great response.
Speaker 12 Like, he's right.
Speaker 107 I'm with Hank here.
Speaker 109 It's true. Right.
Speaker 50 So I admit that he's right.
Speaker 83 What do we do now?
Speaker 143 I don't know. Be fair.
Speaker 77 Be honest. Be good.
Speaker 14 Maybe be better with your Mount Rushmore guesses.
Speaker 21 So to me, I lobbied to give you phone check-ins, right?
Speaker 21 No one.

Speaker 14 One kiss, five minutes.
Speaker 110 Well, Shazir.
Speaker 135 Whoa.
Speaker 118 Are you talking about blowjobs or anal sex?
Speaker 38 He said two books.
Speaker 21 Sending volume two of the ultimate guide to.
Speaker 6 You got to know what changed.
Speaker 17 Volume one.
Speaker 77 There must have been like a FaceTimer, a follow-up. Like, there was the text conversation.
Speaker 18 Yeah, it felt like we were missing hold.
Speaker 21 A little bit, like, kind of flirtatious, kind of not and then just like hey what's up bam how to give a blow job how to do anal volume two just being like i regret the chapter in volume one that said use a lot of teeth update do not use a lot of teeth
Speaker 55 all right good fire fest thanks sick boy sick boy okay
Speaker 21 uh my fire fest of the week is that um there's something that i've got set up on my phone
Speaker 21 shut the fuck up
Speaker 21 yep uh no the and that's actually not the worst thing that's happened to to me this week, believe it or not.
Speaker 21 I've got something set up on my phone where when it connects to my car speaker automatically, it starts blasting a song, right? And on full volume on my phone.
Speaker 21 I don't know how I set this up on my phone.
Speaker 127 Now,
Speaker 21 for a lot of people, it's like, oh, the YouTube album starts playing or something that you have in your iTunes library. I've downloaded very few songs onto my iTunes library.
Speaker 21 I usually use Spotify, but one song that I have downloaded is the one that starts playing, and it's absolutely going to fuck me over at some point.
Speaker 49 Uh-oh.
Speaker 21 As a joke, I downloaded Eminem's song FAC, F-A-C-K, and it is maybe the worst song of all time, right?
Speaker 49 It's
Speaker 36 yeah, that song.
Speaker 21
It's banger. It's so bad.
I actually do think it's the worst song of all time. And every time I sit down in my car at max volume on my speaker, it's Eminem being like, I'm going to eat that pussy.
Speaker 90 And it's, it's bad.
Speaker 21
It's really, it's bad. Fortunately enough for me, I've been driving.
I haven't had any passengers in my car since it started, which is like three, four days ago.
Speaker 21 But there's going to be a time when somebody who should not listen to that song hops into my passenger seat and it starts talking about Eminem getting his dick sucked.
Speaker 29 Yeah, that's tough.
Speaker 29 That's really tough.
Speaker 77
When I had the Mazda, it used to do that. I listened to music on Spotify.
Also, shout out to everyone Spotify rapped. Very nice.
Always fun to see.
Speaker 21 Yeah, that was great.
Speaker 77 So I don't listen to Apple music, and all my iTunes would just be me downloading the podcast recordings onto my computer so I could edit.
Speaker 77 And so when I would get in my car, it would just randomly start playing a recording session of the podcast where we usually record for like 30 seconds or a minute before we start. Yeah.
Speaker 77 So it would just be like a random conversation of whatever we were talking about from like two years ago, which is always just like a fun, let's see what we were talking about this day. Yeah.
Speaker 77 Sometimes I'll be like, oh shit.
Speaker 21 Yeah, I'm just going to read verse two because this is the verse that it's stuck on from Eminem, okay?
Speaker 21 Parental advisory. If you've got kids in the car, turn it up.
Speaker 48 Oh, yeah, God. Ooh, wow.
Speaker 105 Boom, that pow. Ooh, wow.
Speaker 21
I need a cigarette now. Ow, I'm so fucking hot, and you're so fucking hot.
Oh, my God. I want a fucking fack.
Speaker 21
No, not fuck. I said fack.
F-A-C-K, F-A-C-K. Fuck, fack, fack.
Focking freak me. Oh, yeah, girl.
See, baby, they call me Mr. Freaky.
Let's call your sister three-way. Have some threesome, me so horny.
Speaker 21
And you're such a fucking babe. I want to go down on you.
Fuck, you shaved. Oh, god, damn, here I go again.
I'm i'm going to come i am
Speaker 21 so that's what plays in my car jesus every time i sit down and start it up and it's at when i say max volume i mean maximum volume yeah in my car damn so i gotta straighten that out that's a lot otherwise i'm gonna have some splaying to do yeah um all right my fire fest is i i also was sick i had a stomach thing that was a battle i battled I lost like probably 10 pounds, though, so that's pretty cool.
Speaker 8 You look great. Yeah, thank you.
Speaker 114 I do need a haircut.
Speaker 55 And then I also, I have a game of the year year on Saturday.
Speaker 21 The SEC championship over.
Speaker 89 How's it going to fire fest?
Speaker 29 Because it takes a lot out of me.
Speaker 116 And I'm already weakened by the diarrhea.
Speaker 25 So I'm already in a fragile state.
Speaker 116 Now I have to get my strength up.
Speaker 139 I hope you will.
Speaker 24 Thank you, Jake. Yep.
Speaker 10 What, Max?
Speaker 110 That's loser talk? Is that what you're going to say?
Speaker 70 No, that's not loser talk.
Speaker 42 I'm saying I battle hard.
Speaker 76 It's a fire fest.
Speaker 8 It's a firefest. Three, I'm going to bat.
Speaker 42 I don't know if my body is ready.
Speaker 65 I need to get rest. I need to sleep.
Speaker 64 Last time I lost a game of the year, I got sick for a month.
Speaker 21 How many games of the year do you have in one year?
Speaker 29 Usually like three or four.
Speaker 107
I feel like you're game of the year, the SEC title game every year. I love it.
I love it.
Speaker 29 It's going to be so much fun to watch that game.
Speaker 19 I'm so excited to watch that game.
Speaker 133 I love that game so much.
Speaker 81 It is going to be great.
Speaker 81 I think this is the best.
Speaker 21 The best weekend of football that we've had in quite some time.
Speaker 10 Yeah.
Speaker 17 And we have the Crown Jewel on Seth Sunday.
Speaker 21 And And the crown jewel capping it off. Did you see Triggs, the guy that does the cover art for part of my take, tremendous artist, awesome, very talented guy?
Speaker 21
He made a flowchart of which teams are going to get into the playoffs. I love that.
Depending on who won.
Speaker 105 Yeah, psycho behavior. Max didn't understand it.
Speaker 146 It's very complicated.
Speaker 37 No, it's very simple.
Speaker 74
I was sitting at my desk. Memes can attest.
I was looking at this thing for five minutes, like five minutes, just going through everything. I'm like,
Speaker 8 still don't get it.
Speaker 11 It's very simple to follow.
Speaker 74
No, I think I did end up getting it. I did end up getting it.
There's just a lot of arrows and the thing.
Speaker 21 Here's the thing, Max, is we have not been exposed to that. Like, if we had seen that every year during this weekend, where it's like, here's the college football play, a flowchart.
Speaker 21
Then we grew up seeing it and it's normal to us. But this is the first time I've ever seen four teams with the arrows.
Here's what happens. Here's what happens.
Speaker 21
It took me a good like 10 seconds of staring at it. It took me like, now I get it.
He correctly
Speaker 73 correctly too. Like the Ohio State fans.
Speaker 31 they have a path, but they don't realize because I was talking to Big F earlier, they need Washington to sneaky win.
Speaker 17 Because if Oregon beats Washington close,
Speaker 106 why would Washington not be the one the one lost team that gets in?
Speaker 60 Yeah. That's so like that's and Triggs actually called that out perfectly.
Speaker 22 It's an you know that happened last year, right?
Speaker 107 The Buckeye snuck in after he was in Michigan.
Speaker 17 Yeah, there was not as many undefeated teams.
Speaker 134 Okay, Jake.
Speaker 107 I can't parallel Park.
Speaker 66 Was home in Florida. No, duh.
Speaker 21 I want to say something so bad, but I can't.
Speaker 48
I can't. You can say it.
No, I can't.
Speaker 21 I honestly can't. I have zero room to talk to you about maneuvering a car in a parking lot.
Speaker 110 But you can say it.
Speaker 21 No, I'm not going to say it. But if you were to say it, I'm not going to say it because then obviously I'm a...
Speaker 21 I had an unfortunate moment where I was a bad driver, so I can't talk about it.
Speaker 108 Yeah, but it's really hard to do.
Speaker 45 No, it's not.
Speaker 66 It's really not.
Speaker 48 In Florida, they don't make you do that.
Speaker 107 They just make you do a regular.
Speaker 90 But with, is it a newish car you were driving?
Speaker 118 Yeah.
Speaker 66 They put it on easy mode.
Speaker 110 Yeah, it is.
Speaker 65 Like, it used to be...
Speaker 56 Old man yelling a cloud, like, when we were growing up, PFT, like, the first car you drove, like, you had to, like,
Speaker 73 really parallel park. Yeah.
Speaker 64 Last, like, five years, they've made it so easy.
Speaker 14 All the cameras, all the sensors, it's a fucking job.
Speaker 61 I actually miss it a little bit.
Speaker 74 I've never had a camera.
Speaker 83 You've never had a camera? No.
Speaker 23 So, yeah, so you know old school parallel parking.
Speaker 142 I need to get a car.
Speaker 21 I just got my car.
Speaker 30 So you don't even have, well, of course you don't have a camera.
Speaker 21 you don't have a car no well i just got rid of my car before i moved to chicago got it i um i i never had a camera until this car and it's easy mode it's easy mode but also i've done it for what like a month two months and immediately i'm finding myself being like how did i ever do this before yeah no it's bad it's like when when they first invented gps yeah you're like wait you had to look at a map ahead of time yeah and then you had to know all what the different roads were and memorize all that shit used to print out map quests you could even before map quests yeah where where it was like, here's a, here's
Speaker 90 a road atlas.
Speaker 64 My dad used to like, we'd pull over and you'd just look at a fucking map.
Speaker 106 Yeah.
Speaker 66 Like, we're going to get off at this place. What?
Speaker 49 That shit happened all the time.
Speaker 26 What the fuck are you talking about?
Speaker 21 And you had to like follow along on the road.
Speaker 21 You had to, it was like, it was some advanced shit, but immediately now that I've got a backup camera and the sensors and all that, I don't think I could go back.
Speaker 73 Yeah. Wait, so Jake, were the backup cameras like you weren't looking at them? Because that I'll back you up in the fact that like sometimes I don't trust them.
Speaker 58 You just didn't know how the car moved?
Speaker 115 Yeah.
Speaker 107 It was my first time driving the car.
Speaker 8 I don't really
Speaker 136 frequently.
Speaker 45 Oh, if it's your first time, that doesn't mean you don't know how to parallel park.
Speaker 26 I mean, I don't.
Speaker 112 Okay, yeah, that also probably. Yeah, that's it.
Speaker 107 When I had a car in high school, I couldn't do it.
Speaker 11 Okay.
Speaker 8 You know what the most exhilarating thing is?
Speaker 21 When you have an audience that's watching you parallel parking.
Speaker 26 Oh, it's not using that.
Speaker 8 Jake, I got a question.
Speaker 110 I got a question.
Speaker 6 I really hope the answer to this is not going to be what it is.
Speaker 55 Have you ever gotten out of your car and had someone else parallel park it for you?
Speaker 69 No.
Speaker 40 Oh, thank God. No.
Speaker 48 That would have been bad.
Speaker 90 That is the ultimate cuck move. Yeah.
Speaker 39 Mount Rushmore cuck moves.
Speaker 5 We'll do that next summer.
Speaker 17 That, like, to be like, hey, can you please help park my own car for me?
Speaker 107 No, I'll just leave and find a different spot. That would be, yeah.
Speaker 90 If I can't get it. All right, Jake.
Speaker 107 Or sometimes the person leaving in front of you leaves, and then it's much easier.
Speaker 21 Yeah. You know what? One of my favorite moves to do is, is when you see somebody about to parallel park, you just walk out there and you start helping them.
Speaker 30 Yeah, direct them. Yeah.
Speaker 21
Without being asked. Yeah.
And it's like, I got you, buddy. Yeah.
Speaker 45 Kind of a first responder. Yep.
Speaker 114 Okay.
Speaker 2 Let's finish up the show. Numbers.

Speaker 34 Till I want it to be over
Speaker 34 Looking back now I can finally see
Speaker 34 You're my head and a dream
Speaker 34 Feel the warning to be over
Speaker 34 Looking back now I can finally see
Speaker 34 You're my head
Speaker 34 and
Speaker 34 my hand, tick, tick, tick
Speaker 34 Tick, tick, tick, come my hand, tick, tick, tick
Speaker 34 Tick, tick, tick, come my hand, tick, tick, tick,
Speaker 34 tick, tick, tick, come my hand, tick, tick, tick,
Speaker 34 tick, tick, tick, you,
