Welcome to Part of My Take.

Today is Monday, November 27th.

Week 12.

What?

What?

What?

What?

What?

What?

What?

What?

Let us be the last to wish you and yours a happy Thanksgiving. Stuff turkey.
We start in Detroit on Thanksgiving where Christian what? Sin said, yeah, from the windows to the wall. He caught all of Jordan's balls.
All skeet skeet motherfucker. All skeet skeet goddamn.
Speaking of balls, Jared took a couple of costly sacks as Lions fans were looking for the closest Sam Laporta potty on Turkey Day. Jaden Lou Reed and the Packers took a walk on the wild side this season, cosplaying as a shitty team, but now they're back to 5-6 and in the hunt.
Huh? Huh? Huh? Packers? Packers 29. Stop me if you heard this before.
The Lions 22. They lose on Thanksgiving.
Down to Dallas where Jamie Lee Curtis Samuel had 100 yards but he wished he could be trading places with Dan Dackroyd Prescott for the holidays. It was Dax giving as they were Brandon Cooksing some seedy lamb chops and

Tony Pollard greens and leaving

everyone Kevonte Burpin.

After 45 points,

Mike McCarthy enjoyed the one day

a year where looking fat just means

you're happy. As the Cowboys

roll, Dallas, 45.

The Washington Commanders, 10.

We move along to the first ever Black

Friday NFL game where you

can listen to Tim Susan Boyle on Amazon

Music ad-free with a subscription

Thank you. The Washington Commanders, 10.
We move along to the first ever Black Friday NFL game where you can listen to Tim Susan Boyle on Amazon Music ad-free with a subscription to Amazon Prime. Javon Holland-Oates said, What I want is to intercept Hail Mary's, put the ball in my hand and carry, score a touchdown, yeah, oh yeah.
You don't make friends with Salah, as Jets fans are wondering how Roberts still has a job. Dolphins 34, Jets 13.
We move on to Sunday where C.J. Stroud-Mary was throwing, throwing, throwing balls to tank, y'all.
Dr. Trevorky and Lawrence had Texans fans updating their living Will Anderson as they got put out of their misery.

Calvin Squidley was playing red light, green light with a Texan secondary,

scoring a huge touchdown.

And I'm not the world's most physical guy,

but if I need 58 yards, I'd kick it 59.

Dola.

Doink, doink, doink, doink, dola.

As the game ends on Matt Amadola's doink. Jaguars, 24.
Texans, 21. We head over to New Jersey, the Meadowlands, where we have our beat reporter, Henry Lockwood, on the scene.
Yes, guys, I'm here in the Meadowlands. Fans of the Big Blue were grateful this week for Mac and Cheese Jones when Bailey's Irish Zappy throwing picks and stumbling, bumbling, fumbling the ball all day long.
Tommy Donvito said, I'm Italian. Randy Bullock got off the cheeseburgers and on the scoreboard with a go-ahead field goal in the fourth quarter.
And Chad Rye Landon Donovan kicked the game-tying field goal wide left, and the Giants passed New England in the Pooper Bowl 13-10. I'm Italian.
Thank you, Henry. Hey! Hey! Over to Cincinnati, where Bengals fans are still Jake Frowning about Joe Burrow's lost season.
Eddie William Faulkner worked on a script and brought the sound and the fury on the Bengals' defense to the tune of 16 points. The game turned on Trenton Hunter S.
Thompson's interception as he has Steelers fans hoping to feel fear and loathing in Las Vegas for the Super Bowl and Cincinnati's playoff hopes are officially gonzo. Steelers 16, Bengals 10.
Up to mile high where Samaji, hold on a second,

I gotta go take a pee ride,

looked like a number one back when coach said, you're in, pal.

Dorian Gray Thompson-Robinson decayed

before our very eyes, leading

him to need a walker to finish the game.

Like Stu Finer after a weekend

of pleasuring his wife, he's half

man, half fish. He's

trout man, who scored a pivotal touchdown to give the Broncos a win. The RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR, the one-legged man, Max Christopher Delente.
Max, definitely watch the game. The first half Philadelphia Ciblesbles were getting raw dogged up and down the field to an early 10-point deficit.
Then, all of a sudden, hailing hurts started making it rain all over the Bills' defense and eventually set up Make Elliott to extend the game. Josh Giddy Allen was hooking up with 13 and 14 all day, but his last snap of OG got

exposed as he couldn't connect with Davis to win the game. Eagles win 34-31.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.

Make Elliot.

That was an inspired choice.

How'd you come up with that one?

He made it.

He made it, boom. Standing on a corner, Jameis Winston down in Nola.
Such a fine sight to see. It's Bijan, my lord.
He needs to carry it more. And the Falcons in the catbird seat.

Come on, dude.

Pits.

You've got to do it.

And Ludacris came from after screaming, move, bitch.

The Falcons win.

Saints, don't go March. 24...
26-14. I think.
24-15. We knew it.

He's the worst.
Complete boner killer. We will talk about that game.
Justin Tucker just missed a easy kick. Is he washed? He might be washed.
Yeah, he's unwashed watch. He might be washed.
But, yes, we are going to get to every game. We're back from Thanksgiving.
I think that right now if you gave me a drug test, they'd be like, I don't know how this man has survived. He's 95% Pepto-Bismol in Tums.
I'm struggling. My body is broken.
I'm all on sodium.

My body is completely salty.

I feel like Hank. I tried to eat dinner tonight

and I had two bites. I was like, I can't

eat. I can't eat anymore.
I've been on that

all the time in my life. So my problem is

I'm trying to start a new clean living diet

so I can get some Super Bowl abs this year.

This is a perfect time for it. And right now

it's very hard because I've got so much

leftovers in my house. I don't

want to waste. There are starving kids all

across the world that could use a nice plate

to perfect time for it and right now christmas it's very hard because i've got so much leftovers in my house yeah i don't want to waste you know there are starving kids all across the world that could use a nice plate of food so i feel like i should eat it for them and it's just the most unhealthy food possible i'm on that fried turkey morning noon night diet right yeah yeah so we're gonna we're gonna we're gonna pick up the pieces we're back uh we are going to talk about thanksgiving day games and black friday games then get into every other game from sunday so let's hop into it let's get right into it the packers 29 the lions 22 the lions got killed by the moon jay kuda uh who does incredible job on twitter tweeted out before the game that uh the lions are 0 and 12 going into thursday's game when playing on thanksgiving with a waxing gibbous moon they are now 0 and 13 under those circumstances sounds like some astrology shit yes listen if astrology will win me money i will be the biggest weirdo astrologist of all time yeah so which one is waxing is that that's when it's coming in yeah that's when the moon is starting to fill up gibbous in gibbous okay so i don't know what it means but yeah again that should be also on our text alert thread that that would have 100 yeah but the lions that it was it was sad to see the lions lose but it was also comforting be like oh yeah even though they're good um yeah changed. They lose on Thanksgiving.
Well, so the Lions aren't that bad historically on Thanksgiving. We remember it when they do lose, and it just kind of falls into place.
But they're not the worst team on Thanksgiving. They're pretty bad.
They're not great, but they're far from the worst. They're like middle of the pack in terms of overall record.
Do you know why they play on Thanksgiving every year? It was some deal with the motor companies, right? No, it was their former owner. You can just always say motor companies with Detroit.
With Detroit, yeah. The former owner also owned a network of TV stations and radio stations.
That's right. And so he wanted to give them a nationwide audience to increase brand awareness about the Lions.
And so he was just like, let's just do a Thanksgiving Day game. And it worked.
And so now it just kind of became the Lions thing. They are, by the way, 6-18 this century.
They're bad on Thanksgiving. This century, yeah.
No, they won a lot of games on Thanksgiving when, like, we weren't alive. Yeah.
They have been bad on Thanksgiving, and they've had, I think, like a 7- or 8-game losing streak and a 6-game losing streak that they're currently on. Yeah.
So they're bad on Thanksgiving. Yeah, i was just looking up overall records earlier in the week um on thanksgiving and there's they're under 500 there's a lot of teams that yeah the 37 44 and 2 yeah on thanksgiving so that's what i saw yeah um so if you're lions fan panic button is uh in the palm of your hand i would say right and it's not because your team stinks, because I think the Lions will be fine, and they'll figure a way out.
But the Vikings also have a very real chance. If they beat the Bears on Monday Night Football, the Vikings could be in the discussion for the division.
I mean... They still have to play the Lions twice.
The thing about the Lions is right now, our guy Jared Goff is in a little bit of a mini slump he's had he's one and one in his mini slump he you know he beat the bears not playing his best game the same thing kind of happened on thanksgiving day where the ball was getting turned over a lot fumbles under pressure missing some throws you just have to hope that he gets out of his mini slump which i think he will but that is the difference right now with how the Lions look because their defense is not going to be the one that wins them games. It's got to be their offense.
So when their offense isn't clicking perfectly, they look like not a great team. We're football guys, so we know that the strength of the Lions should be their offensive line.
Yes. And the middle of their offensive line hasn't been playing that well.
And there was a lot of pressure on jared like i'll say that the the fumble when he was trying to throw the ball early on in the game i don't think that's entirely on jared rashaun gary is really fucking good he's a really fucking good football player and he was everywhere on thursday and uh i i do want to briefly talk about the packers and i want to say this has got to be a safe space no Packers fans can can tweet this at me what I'm about to say does not count Jordan Love might actually be good and it's starting to scare me he might actually be good and this is the difference between dysfunctional franchises and functional franchises like the Green Bay Packers where this season was lost for them. It was a completely lost cause.

They looked like trash.

They were a bad football team, and they have come along here in the last few weeks, won some games, and now they are like –

they're in the hunt more than – they're five and six,

and someone's going to get this seventh seed in the NFC,

and they could absolutely get into the playoffs,

and that's the difference between a functional and dysfunctional franchise is when they look like everything's lost and that the season's over, they could still somehow sneak into the playoffs. I think that for most franchises that aren't like the Packers, like our beloved teams, when you stink, it's a terminal illness.
Right. There's no turning back.
You're like, we just stink. You're going to stink.
And as a matter of fact, you're going to get get worse right as the season keeps going there's no cure there's no cure for whatever you have when you're a dysfunctional franchise and then if you're a good franchise there's enough stability around you where maybe you can keep practicing football and get better at football and play your way out of a slump um i don't i still i would pump the brakes i know that you're afraid about jordan love no i wouldn't i would not concern myself too much with Jordan Love being like an elite quarterback he looked a lot better he looks his his receivers are getting a lot better because they're all very young and like they they tried to basically have an entire young team on the fly and see if they could patch together and again like I'm not even talking about the Vikings being in the playoffs because we've been looking at, you know, who's going to win the seventh seed.

Now it's who's going to win the sixth and seventh

because the Seahawks are completely reeling,

and the Seahawks have to play the Cowboys, they have to play the Niners,

and I think they have to play the Eagles all in a row.

So those three games in a row, there could be two, like, it could flop.

It could be the Rams and the Packers in the playoffs, just like that.

So it's just scaring me, and I know, again, Packers fans can't use this against me. I think Jordan Love might be good, and it's starting to worry me.
He looked a lot better. Yeah, but at least good is his ceiling.
I don't think he's going to be great. But his receivers are now like Christian Watson finally got his head out of his ass.
Jaden Reed. All these guys, they really did him a disservice by putting all these young guys on his team and being like, we're not going to give you one stalwart old receiver that can help you, like an Adam Thielen in the Panthers, who obviously that hasn't worked out well.
But it's all kind of coming along here, and they've strung some games along, and they start to look like a real team. And at team and at five and six I don't know man I'm a little nervous and they they don't have the toughest schedule they still have the Giants the Bucks and the Panthers on their schedule after they play the Chiefs next week right like the Packers are going to probably get to nine or ten wins and I'm going to have to I'm going to have to kill myself if I were the Lions again this shouldn't be used against me I would be way more concerned with the Vikings because they have the Bears, Raiders, Bengals, then two games against the Lions and the Packers.
The Vikings have a very real window right now. Yeah, no, no, but again, the Seahawks are the other team.
The Seahawks are faltering. The Seahawks look bad and they have some really tough games going.
We've been thinking like, oh, the Seahawks are in the playoffs thought that now I don't think that's the case and again it's complete and utter bullshit that in a rebuilding year you can make the playoffs that should be not allowed you should have to declare before the season starts whether you're rebuilding or not and then you you you are not eligible for the playoffs if you're rebuilding functional teams don't have like dedicated dedicated rebuilding. Yeah, they rebuild like this is bullshit.
This is bullshit. Rebuilding is much like in the Hunt graphic where if you're a shitty franchise, you just say that you're rebuilding and then that gives you permission to stink for that year.
At least for that year, you have an excuse. I've thought my way out of this.
Aaron Rodgers didn't make the playoffs last year. Yeah.
I was going to say you wouldn't love better than Aaron Rodgers,

but that's my worst nightmare.

So, no, it's bad.

It's bad.

And I feel bad for Lions fans because this was supposed to be like the big Thanksgiving

where you guys are a really good team.

I know.

And everything goes well.

What I would say to Lions fans, I assume most of the Lions fans listening to this show

have already watched it, but I did watch the Barry Sanders documentary on Friday night.

Awesome documentary.

Barry Sanders is incredible.

I don't know if it's going to be a whole lot or or not very many at all so i don't know he had 53 yards his first two games that's crazy so he had 2000 yards rushing in the last 14 games that's insane it's insane if you look at barry sanders oklahoma state stats those are incredible he was crazy I also just didn't know that his dad was a diehard Oklahoma fan. Barry Sanders was just like, yeah, I'm going to go to Oklahoma State.
Good for him. Yeah.
I mean, his whole career just not wanting the limelight and just being like – I mean, he should be celebrated. I know there was a weird cooling off period between him and the Lions, but I also didn't realize that he had two times in his career, a player on the lions had to be taken off, uh, in an ambulance.
One of them got paralyzed. The other had a really bad neck injury.
And that was like, they talked about it. They're like, that was part of him being like, maybe I don't want to play this.
Yeah. Good for Barry.
Barry walked away at the top of his game. Yeah.
So lions fans watch that documentary. Lions fans.
Also, I know that you're thinking about the panic button. I i still think they're going to win the division i still think that they're i don't think there's anything inherently broken about the lines no it's they had a slump for golf right now they had a couple a couple bad bounces the moon was moon waxing gibbous that moon like go somewhere else moon you fucking why do we do we really need the moon for anything? I feel like the moon is washed.
Is the moon washed? Well, they always say for the tides. Yeah, I think the tides have figured it out by now.
Kind of overrated. Okay, so the earth has existed for what? Like, I don't know.
Depending on how religious you are, anywhere between 20,000 and 20 million years, I think the tides know their role. Yes.
Right? They know their lane the moon what does it do i might have to i might have to be anti-moon oh you want to go anti-moon hank i don't think so join join the party why not why do you like the moon they're always scared because i mean it controls the oceans i'm a big ocean guy oh so that you can find your way if you're sailing at night if there's a full full moon? You're right, that would be nice. Yeah, and just the tides and everything.
It plays a vital part. Without the moon, we wouldn't exist.
Is that true? I don't think that's true. I don't think that's true.
I don't think we need the moon for shit. The thing is, the moon...
Oh, we need the moon. If we didn't have the moon, we'd spin out of orbit.
No, no, no. You're thinking of something else.
We should just let the moon off its leash.

Just push it.

Could we push the moon?

Yeah, just ram it real quick.

So the moon was supposed to be like the Earth's fullback,

intercepting comets and asteroids and shit. Which it did do.

Which it did a great job at,

but the game has evolved to the point

where we don't need a fullback anymore.

Right.

It's more wide open.

When was the last time that you saw a new crater form on the moon

because it knocked out an asteroid? It's been years. It hasn't been doing shit for us.
You don't know about the other side. I don't think the moon could play in this era.
The dark side. Wash.
That's all I'm saying. By the way, Jake, could you please put a reminder in the files for me that I need to make sure that I win my first bet on Thanksgiving next next year that really just that changes my whole mood for the day yeah thanksgiving day the first game is the most important game of the day it changes your entire the entire tenor of the day how you conduct yourself around your family all of it so i just that's a must win and i i don't i don't i don't put enough effort into trying to make that a must win like i just took the lions and i was like oh yeah they're gonna win the packers stink and then i was just danny doom and gloom until the cowboys romped whomped yeah crushed the commanders uh hand up also this lions game snuck up on me central time early kickoff yeah it really snuck up on me yeah also i was not prepared we have a we had a little controversy because the Packers didn't get a turkey.
Yeah. They didn't get a turkey at the end.
There was a theory that Greg Olson actually ruined the turkey because he shoved his hand inside the turkey during one of the breaks. And then there was another- How is that a theory? Isn't that either something that happened or didn't happen? Yeah, well, I don't think anyone's going to own up to it and then there was another theory that the the the fox or yeah it was fox telecast had seared the lions logo into the turkey so they didn't want to give it to the packer oh so so fox jinxed it yeah they might have jinxed fox stopped the count and the moon this is arizona and the moon both things hand in hand uh okay let's talk about the next game.
Cowboys 45, Commanders 10. This was such an ass kicking that the Dallas Cowboys hit a turkey in the Salvation Army bucket.
And that would be bad enough because they were like, hey, we're going to win by so much after we score one time, we're going to go and we're going to eat the turkey out of there. And Dak Prescott said afterwards that he was thinking about doing it.
He was kind of weighing it around like, hey, we're probably going to get a penalty. And then he happened to see Mike McCarthy and Jerry Jones before the game, and he told Jerry, and Jerry was like, fuck yeah, do that.
And then that would be bad enough. But the worst part is that Dak Prescott said afterwards they were actually going to do it after they went up 31-10 with 10 minutes left in the fourth quarter, but they were like, nah, we'll score again.
And then they waited and they did it when they went up 38-10. That was the worst part to me was they, okay, you want to hide a turkey in a Salvation Army kettle? Yeah.
Go ahead, do that're last week we proved that we were get engaged during a sack celebration bad yeah now this week we're hide a turkey and celebrate a touchdown but if you're going to do it do it when you're up by 20 points late in the fourth don't don't wait until you you break 40 points almost yeah break that out on me um whatever i asked for a whomping i said i said

i'd love a whomping i i wanted it i was like all s and me up 50 shades of gray beat the shit out of me daddy like that's what i wanted because i wanted ron river to get fired i almost accomplished that mission jack del rio got the axe he's fired he's gone i'm happy about that now it's an interesting game because going into Thanksgiving,

NFL teams were 57-0 in the last 25 seasons

when they had a game where they had 100-plus rushing yards,

250-plus passing yards, 35-minute time of possession,

no more than 25 penalty yards, and no more than one turnover.

The commanders did that, and they lost by 35 points. Yeah.
You've got to points. You've got to score.
That's important. Scoring's important.
We were good until we got to the 30-yard line and then the offense stunk after that. The defense was awful.
This might be the worst defense that I've ever seen in my life. It got Jack Del Rio fired.
It got Jack Del Rio fired. Now my theory is Ron Rivera's going going to take over the defense he's going to retire at the end of the season he made a side deal with josh harris being like please don't fire me i'm going to stick around i'm going to let eric biennemi run the show he's going to act like the head coach he's going to take care of everything on the offensive side of the ball like a job interview like a job interview we're going to give him which i wanted except i wanted ron gone too but i'm pretty sure that ron's gonna he's such a classy guy you remember how he went out in charlotte where they they let him address the team in the media press conference after he got fired yeah so ron's a classy guy no one wants to fire ron especially not during salute to service month his parents are in the military uh and i think what is going to happen is bnm is going to be the de facto head coach for the rest of the season he's going to get a shot to prove himself and then clean house after the season's over yeah so good job to the cowboys cowboys are great cowboys beat the fuck out of bad teams you found a pretty fucking bad team the cowboys are really good right now and i know that they're playing some bad teams and they've had two big

games that they've lost against really good teams the basically the two teams in front of them and

the Eagles and the Niners but Dak Prescott is playing out of his mind he's had four out of last five games 300 plus yards the Cowboys at home this year are five and oh for a combined score of 205 to 60.

That's an average score of

41 to 12.

The Cowboys deserve credit.

I know that they still have to prove that they can beat the eagles or the 49ers but the cowboys are really fucking good right now and i i think it's i i had the theory a couple weeks ago where it's like they're kind of in the perfect spot where everyone talks about the eagles and 49ers and not every single show is leading with the Cowboys but they are a really really good team and they are I like if you have a conversation about the three teams the NFC the Cowboys have to be in it I think the Cowboys could win the Super Bowl yeah definitely without a doubt and Duran Bland insane his his uh fifth pick six of the season that's an NFL record and it's week 12 yeah insane he has more touchdowns than like he's got to have more touchdowns than zach wilson right yeah i'd say so he i would have to guess right does he memes zach wilson at six oh okay so dron blam will get it soon he's enough i know he has more than dk metgaff because dk said that after the game oh he's got more touchdown Also, Nance had an incredible call. He did.
He was ready for it. He said, you're watching history, folks.
Yeah, he did have a very good call for that. But, yeah, the Cowboys are really good.
Yeah, the Cowboys. I got to give them credit.
The Cowboys could 100% win the Super Bowl. I'm not downplaying that at all.
I still think the 49ers are better. I think the Eagles are better.
But depending on how it all shakes out, the Cowboys are in that conversation. Yeah, the problem for the Cowboys is that the team ahead of them is in their division, so they don't get to play home games in the playoffs.
Right. That's the biggest problem.
Right. Because they just kill teams at home.
Now, on the other side of the coin, I'm all over tankathon.com, baby. I'm on it.
Yeah. Big Cat, I'm rooting for the best for your Bears.
I hope your Bears win tomorrow night. I'm on your side.
Let's go, Bears. Has nothing to do with the fact that Washington would then potentially

take the fourth pick from the Bears.

And then now we're looking at maybe Maserati Marv.

Listen, I'm cool with anything because the Panthers suck so bad,

and I don't think they're going to win another game.

Yeah.

So I'm good with that.

I would be fine with the Bears maybe trying to win a game every now and then.

How are the turntables for me? Yeah. I was thinking Y off about a month ago.
Well, we were just having a discussion out there, obviously outside of Jake and, and max who Eagles and dolphins. I might have the best team out of the rest of us right now.
Yeah. I don't, I don't manders jets Patriots.
And then Shane is sitting there in his sad chargers sweatshirt, even though the chargers did kick shit out of the Bears so you probably can't make that argument but like the Bears are not as bad as the Commanders the Jets and the and the Patriots right now I agree this is this is a recent low I was about to say all-time low but no we've been much much worse than this before can you believe that like a couple weeks ago you're thinking y' That's what I just said. Four weeks ago I was thinking Yoff's.
I did the schedule. I've seen some Commanders fans tweet they'd rather have Sam Howell than Josh Allen.
We're not going to go down that road. Did you see that, Commanders fans? You can't even say many people are saying.
You have to say a person said that. Yeah.
This is a straw man argument. I reject the premise of your argument.
While Josh Allen has like 500 yards of offense it almost takes the bills to a victory on his back i do still think that sam how's the guy i do too yeah yeah yeah no he has no he our problems are not the offense our offensive line is so bad um but sam how is not the problem at all i actually i think we're in a good position with sam how this year he's basically a rookie he's now one and-1 all time against the Cowboys, so that's good. But it's not his fault.
The defense is historically bad, and the offensive line is very, very bad. I think we're in a good position because he's not counting for much money against the cap.
We're going to get Bill Belichick. It's going to be fine.
Yeah, everything's going to be fine. Yeah, everything's going to be fine.
All right. Next game, Thursday night.
It was, yeah, it was just, you know, the Lions-Packers game was close, but it was the Lions scored late to make it close. The majority of the games, or it felt like the majority of gameplay was in blowouts because the Niners kicked the shit out of the Seahawks, 31-13.
The Niners are all the way back. They, like, Brock even have his – it wasn't like Brock Purdy show.
It was just their defense is awesome. Christian McCaffrey was just running all over everyone.
Niners are really – next week, Niners-Eagles is going to be awesome. Yeah.
I'm actually thinking that Brock Purdy had a very good game, though. He did.
Statistically, it wasn't his best game. But he made some throws where my only note that I wrote down on this game when I was watching it was a simple question.
Is Brock Purdy now a gunslinger? Has he transitioned from being a game manager, a guy that won't lose you a game, to like, you know, then he was a system quarterback for a little bit. And then he went and got so much moxie that I think he might be part gunslinger.

Yeah.

Yeah, no, I'm not saying that he was bad.

I'm saying that it wasn't like he was under 200 yards

until that last touchdown pass to Brandon Ayoub,

which was a great touchdown pass.

I'm saying it wasn't like Brock Purdy.

It wasn't one of those 300-yard games where it's like,

holy shit, Brock Purdy's hitting everyone.

It was Chris McCaffrey just running it down their face

and their defense being unbelievable.

Yeah, I think that Brock, though, he's evolving in front of our very eyes. He might be a gunslinger.
He did a throw pick six. That is a sign of a gunslinger.
Exactly. It's part of the deal.
The neon green jerseys did play at night. I like the look of that at night.
Yeah. It sucks when you're getting your ass kicked and you're wearing a jersey like that but it was it was at least visually entertaining for america while they were coming down from a food coma i think the seahawks are in deep deep trouble they might be like gino does not look right and then having to go at the cowboys at the 49ers next two weeks that they're in deep trouble yeah it feels like this is going to what thought what they thought was a promising season i was kind of buying them earlier this season has derailed and now they have to start saying oh we gotta we probably need to find a quarterback well it's nice when you have kenneth walker running the football for you yeah and it's not nice when you don't it's not nice when you don't at all um the seahawks are i think they're i think the seahawks are perfectly average team capable of having like spurts of good they'll have like a game or two per season where they are like they beat a team that they shouldn't beat and then they'll have a game or two where they lose to a team that they shouldn't lose to but they're just they're they are what they are perfect yeah i'm just looking right now too because they have six wins The Lions win was a good win.
And then their other five wins are against the Panthers, the Giants, the Cardinals, the Commanders, and that Browns game that they probably shouldn't have won that they did win. Yeah.
That's not exactly murderer's row. No, I think that they are like the completely average.
The Panthers-Giants, Cardinals, Commanders are four of the worst teams in the NFL. Yeah.
So, yeah, maybe I'm not buying the Seahawks as much. Okay.
You know what you're doing, though? You're writing Geno off. I am right.
I will absolutely write Geno off. I'm going to take the Cowboys on Thursday night when they're at home against Seahawks Black Friday what a what a what a game that was what a game that was Dolphins 34 Jets 13 we had maybe the craziest play I don't remember a play happening like that where the Jets tried to throw a Hail Mary at the end of half and Javon Holland returned it 99 yards.
And you could make the argument that the reason why that happened was because their shitty quarterback that they benched, that they drafted two overall, was not in the game. And Tim Boyle was starting the game because Tim Boyle doesn't have the arm strength to get it all the way into the end zone.
Well, Tim Boyle was starting the game because his name is not Zach Wilson.

Yeah. They're like, okay, we're going to try somebody who's not Zach and see if that helps at all.

It was a good strategy because I think we know there's enough body of evidence as to what Zach Wilson is.

I think we know what Tim Boyle is.

Now we know for sure.

Yeah.

But at least he's bad, but not in the same way as that Zach Wilson is bad.

That was an all-time Jets moment. Yeah.
An all-time Jets moment. Memes, I mean, you were probably watching it with your dad.
Were you screaming? Were you yelling? So I was at a bar with probably 100 Jets fans, and we thought they were going to take a knee, and then you just see him running down the field, and everybody just starts screaming, oh, no, it's happening. Oh, no, it's happening.
Tim Boyle gets his ankles broken and they're like, oh, my God.

And the bartender's just like the fucking Jets.

And it just every single week.

Al Michaels couldn't even believe it.

Al Michaels woke up from his coma and he had a little spice in his voice

when he was announcing that one.

Memes, in a weird way, is the best part of your week every week

when the Philadelphia Eagles win a game? Because you can can be like we're the only team that beat them you gotta hope they go 17 what would be 19 and 1 yeah yeah 19 20 and 1 yeah and then oh who beat them 19 and 1 yeah yeah it was like uh the bangles when mike white beat them and they went to the super bowl and you're like oh good oh, good. Yeah.
It went to the Super Bowl. Yeah.
We were there. It was so Jets.
And the Dolphins played very well. I mean, Tua wasn't even that good.
But their defense, that's why I've been kind of switched my opinion on the Dolphins. I did have one crazy Dolphins fan try to clip that clip from like two months ago when I was like, the Jets right now could beat the Dolphins.
I bet on the Dolphins on Friday. That was easy.
Jalen Phillips, though, getting hurt is a big loss for them. And the MetLife turf claims another six since 2020, which they changed the turf this year.
Yeah. But since the hybrid, since 2020, there have been six ACL tears and three Achilles tears on the MetLife turf.

Yeah, it's cursed. That's where the Black Cat was on that primetime game.
I guess they do play double the game, so maybe that's skewed now that I'm thinking about it. Yeah, it's so-fi.
Yeah, that's true. That's what we need to do is match it up head-to-head.
So-fi, yeah. But either way, that turf sucks.
Yeah, that one you just pushed off. It just snapped.
Yeah. Memes, I got a question for you.
Yeah. How much of the blame on this season do you put on Aaron Rodgers? I was thinking about it.
On his Achilles or Aaron Rodgers himself? I'm thinking Aaron Rodgers himself. And listen, I'm a reformed Aaron Rodgers hater.
I no longer hate him. but I'm starting to just toss around the idea that him saying that he's going to come back this year might have hurt the Jets a little bit in the fact that they didn't go out and try to get another QB they are dealing with Nathaniel Hackett as the OC and they also have a roster full of guys Tim Boylele being one of them, that are his friends that he had everyone sign.
Did Aaron Rodgers hold you guys hostage this year? He might have held us hostage. He might have, and Packers fans are nodding along right now.
That doesn't sound like Aaron Rodgers. They're like, yep, yep, yep.
Alan Lazard was a healthy scratch this week. Randall Cobb hasn't played.
Dalvin Cook.

Tim Boyle is your backup.

Tim Boyle is the backup.

You've spent all season talking about how you're going to go out

and get Devontae Adams later.

Just like that carrot has been out there like he's going to come back.

Like if he had just said, Achilles, I'm out.

Does the Jets season look a little bit different?

Do they get more aggressive?

And this is probably more of a Joe Douglas, Robert Salah problem than Aaron Rodgers, but I just was thinking about it. I was thinking about it.
I think it might come from the top down. I think it might be old Woody.
Is everyone going to get fired? Woody might be involved in this because I think Woody, maybe it was Joe Douglas, I don't know. I'm not privileged to these conversations.
But I feel like they didn't replace Zach Wilson because of an instruction for the top. Because if you're Robert Sala and you watch Zach Wilson play quarterback, I hope you're not dumb enough to think maybe this guy could be the answer.
But the backup was Tim Boyle. Yeah, but that's what— They didn't go and get someone else.
That's what I'm saying. I think that they wanted to put all their faith wilson and not have you know he might be the kind of guy that doesn't do well when a clearly better player is on the roster with him yeah but you can't even think like that i know but i'm saying that's i have a feeling that it came from that's not solid choice i don't think if it is that if robert sala truly thought that zach wilson was going to be good enough to keep them in playoff contention until Aaron Rodgers got back on his own, Robert Sala should be fired.
Right. But the biggest problem in the whole conversation is until Aaron Rodgers comes back, why was that always the plan? Yeah.
Do you think Aaron Rodgers wants to come back even if they're not in playoff contention? Definitely not. You don't think there's a small him a little that wants to be like look at me I'm Aaron I'm the one that came back from Achilles in three months maybe I'm still buying the Jets long term because if Aaron Rodgers is back like this team would be very good if Aaron Rodgers was quarterbacking for him that's a fact their defense and we talked about on whatever it was day we we did the preview like their defense quit because they they as soon as that 99-yard interception gets returned, their defense played well in the first half.
Yeah, the game's over. And the game's over, and your defense goes into every game being like, if we give up 10 points, the game's over.
That's got to be the... You can't play defense like that.
Didn't they interview Robert Sala right after that Hail Mary interception pick six? Yeah, he was like on his way to the locker the locker room yeah like what do you say if you're robert sala like well fuck that's the first time that's ever happened in a game do you want everyone fired fresh start yeah but you got to i'm it's just such a confusing process because robert sala had the opportunity to switch them all like the entire season just didn't. I'm just so confused by this entire Jets team.
How does he do? Robert Sala said after the game that his pass protection is what's holding him back. Oh, no.
Somebody shared a clip of Dalvin Cook, and three guys just run right by him, sacking Tim Boyle. I did bet Izzy to score a touchdown again, you motherfucker.

Well, you did that to me.

I thought he was a game changer.

He was very good in the preseason.

I have a good stat for you, Memes.

You ready for it?

I'm ready.

Okay.

The Jets, this is from our friend Stat Hole.

The Jets broke their streak of 17 straight third down plays that didn didn't convert for a first down they had 17 in a row dating back to the game before that's pretty cool they broke the streak yeah that's cool well here's the other part of the stat they actually 17 is is actually tied for the most uh third down you know attempts that didn't convert for a first down with two other teams in the NFL this year. So you're not the worst.
Who are the other two teams, PK? That would be the New England Patriots and the Washington Commanders. Okay.
So now is that stat happy? Yeah, that's a little better. Yeah, that's pretty good.
17 straight third downs. It's a lot.
That's a lot of third downs. There's nothing worse than that because you're getting to third down a lot.
Yeah. And nothing's happening.
Yeah. It's bad.
It's bad. I feel bad for you, Memes.
I feel happy for Jake, though, because the Dolphins do look like they are a legit team now. Yeah.
I mean, Jalen Phillips is going to hurt a lot because, like, Bradley Chubb was getting a lot of one-on-ones. Like, that sucks.
That sucks. I really was starting to feel good about the Dol dolphins as a team because of their defense was coming along and looking really good and now i don't know yeah listen they have a chance to really get in a groove here they've commanders titans jets oh there's a very good chance they're 11 and 3 heading into christmas jay can you finish me off can you just take care of ron for me the me all.
I feel like at this point, they're not going to fire him midseason. It would have been this weekend.
If you hang 100 on Riverboat Ron's defense, he will be fired. Please.
Yeah? Oh, I would take 100, yeah. 100? It would just be cool to see a 100-point game.
100 would be awesome. Also, people are saying Dolphins haven't beaten a good team.
They've now put 70 up on a team that is right on the cusp of being in the playoffs. That was those Broncos.
Those Broncos, not these Broncos. No, you can't do that, Jake.
It's those Broncos. Very different Broncos.
Dolphins are good. I actually think these Dolphins might be better than those Dolphins that put up 70 points.
I've taken the Dolphins off Fraud Watch. We'll see when they play the Cowboys in a month if Fraud Watch comes.
Like, if they get killed by the Cowboys, it's backed Fraud Watch. Yeah.
But right now, I'm high on the Dolphins. And now with the division, with the Bills losing today, it's opening up.
I still have the Dolphins on Fraud watch, but you can earn your way off. So if they stick to their details, if they show me some improvement, signs of improvement, then I'm willing to take them off fraud, but they have to beat the Cowboys.
But they're still on there. I just want to say that I think that they've shown enough where I'm willing to consider their application for, what's the word I'm looking for? That's the opposite of relegation.
Promotion. Advanced promotion.
I'm willing to accept their application for promotion. Yes.
Okay. Did you guys see Alex Smith just like completely dunking on Rex Ryan by accident today? Yeah.
Well, he was also kind of dunking on Hank too with that. He made a lot of interesting points.
Tom Brady said that the league is mediocre right now. Listen, we watch every Sunday.
There's not great quarterback. There's been a lot of quarterback injuries.
Not great quarterback play going on right now. But Alex Smith was like, Tom Brady, you played in the weakest division every single year.
And, like, Rex Ryan's sitting right next to him, coach of the Jets and the Bills. And he was just like, fuck, dude, what are you doing? But Rex even had to be like, he's making some good points.
Yeah. He understood.
Like the Jets were very bad with the exception of what, like two years? And the Bills were pretty bad the entire time. The Dolphins were pretty bad the entire time.
The Patriots pretty much had six games in hand before the season even kicked off. And Tom Brady has thrown Hank a lifeline because Hank walked in today and was like,

I agree with Tom Brady.

The league stinks right now.

Yeah, we were watching a lot of bad football.

The Patriots suck.

You're like, yeah, you know what?

Who would even want to win the Super Bowl this year?

It's kind of tainted.

It sucks.

No, I mean, a Super Bowl wins a Super Bowl win, but we watch every game, like you said,

and there's some ugly, ugly football.

There's some ugly football.

There's some ugly football.

All right, let's move to Sunday.

Before we do that, we have Verizon Takeover PFT. Yes, I love Verizon.
I'm a Verizon customer. I've been a Verizon customer since I got a phone, so that's a long time.
That's a really long time. I'm Team Verizon.
They want to mention to you guys that they've got an incredible deal right now. Big savings.
Season's greetings. Season's savings.
Cyber Monday is here, and you know what that means. Now's the time to hook the fam and yourself up with the best deals from Verizon.
This holiday, you can trade in any iPhone in any condition and get the new iPhone 15 Pro with titanium and iPad and Apple Watch SE all on Verizon with unlimited ultimate. Maybe you broke your iPhone at a concert.
Maybe you dropped it in the toilet. Maybe you spilled one too many drinks on it.
Whatever it is, I've got to crack down my iPhone right now. I'm due for an upgrade.
I'm going to take advantage of this. This does sound like the best deal of the season, best deal of the year, because for a limited time, you can trade in any iPhone in any condition and get the new iPhone 15 Pro and iPad and Apple Watch SE all on Verizon with unlimited ultimate.
The offer won't be here for long. Go take advantage of it at Verizon.com slash take.
That's Verizon.com slash take. I'm going to go there after the show.
Verizon.com slash take. Okay, Sunday.
Sunday, Sunday, Sunday. We had an awesome, awesome game in the early slate.
Jaguars 24, Texans 21. We should do that thing, PFT.
We're like, is this the future Manning versus Brady? Yeah, no. Is Lawrence versus Stroud? Oh, man, we're in for a treat.
We get this for the next decade. I'm excited about it.
I am too, actually. It does seem like a good rivalry that started.
And Trevor Lawrence had a great quote when they asked him about it after the game. They're like, do you enjoy playing against great teams in your own division and building up that rivalry? He was like, no, I wish that every other team in my division stunk.
Yeah. That'd be the best.
Yeah. But if we're doing – I'm willing to expand it to the entire division big cat oh i'm willing to say that the afc south the young guns that is uh the future conference of quarterbacks young guns the young guns levis minshu uh yeah minshu anthony richardson double two-headed monster and then stroud and lawrence this game was awesome it was very fun i was impressed with both teams trevor lawrence looked very good and ever lawrence looked good yeah and he was using his legs again which is good to see cj stroud also looked incredible though like this was the i think the texans were probably four inches from winning this game right on that field goal bounced off the perfect center of the upright and doinked off um And it was because – We're going to overtime, yeah.

Yeah, yeah.

Stroud took a bad sack there at the end of the game,

backed him up a little bit.

Yeah, Josh Allen was awesome.

Josh Allen was great.

He had – how many pressure?

I think he had 12 pressures today.

He was everywhere.

Which is insane, and most of those came against Laramie Tunsell,

who's an awesome player.

So I am very excited to watch the Jags and the Texans play

for the next 30 years.

So C.J. Stroud was good.

C.J. Stroud is maybe too comfortable in the pocket.

There were times where he was just kind of hanging out.

It's crazy to watch.

He processes the game.

He's that good.

He's just like, yeah, I'm just going to stand here.

I'm good.

I know where everyone is on the field.

I don't have to worry about it.

But the Jaguars are the story.

The Jaguars take a stranglehold on the AFC South. They are eight and three.
They are legit. This was a big road win for them when it felt like everyone was like Texans, Texans, Texans.
The only thing I'd say about the Jaguars and Jaguars fans know this, their red zone offense continues to be like, just so confusing. It feels like they're able to move the ball,

then they get to the red zone and shit just breaks down,

throws are late.

Like Trevor Lawrence missed Evan Ingram where he just threw it late.

And that is one of those when you look through the season,

you have like little things that you look to and you're like,

ooh, this might be a problem later.

And I think that might be the problem later unless they figure it out.

Here's a tip. Calvin Ridley's awesome.
Yeah. Throwing the ball to him in the red zone.
Yeah. That would be a problem later and i think that might be the problem later unless they figure it out here's a tip calvin ridley's awesome yeah throwing the ball to him in the red zone and yeah that would be a good strategy they have a 93 chance to win the afc south right now yeah no they're a good team so they're a very good team i actually thought that the the texans should have gone for it on that fourth and 12 that's how good cj stroud was playing at the end of the game where where they sent amandola to try a 58-yarder.
I was like, are you sure they're not going to go for it here? He also looked like he kicked it way too casually. He hit it too high.
Yeah. He got too much air underneath it, and I think he knew the second that it happened.
But I don't think you could have put it more in the center of the uprights. It was a crazy kick.
The other part of this game that I thought the Texans kind of lost it, even though it didn't end up – I think the Jaguars missed a field goal,

but there was that confusing sequence when the Texans had third and one

and they went deep pass, and then they had fourth and one on –

I think it was their own like 45, and they went another deep pass

when they needed one yard.

It was like, what are you guys doing?

Yeah.

Like maybe falling a little bit too in love with how awesome C.J. Str and he is awesome but that one made no sense to me yeah the game also could have been a lot different if at the end of the first half they got some points the jaguars got yeah they went for it with virtually no time remaining and uh the texans just bowed up on defense that was it felt Peterson.
It felt like it changed the momentum. By the way,

I agree with the call.

I liked it.

I don't.

Oh,

I like it.

I don't like going for it at the end of the half.

When you,

when you don't get the benefit of flipping the field.

Like I like going for fourth and one on the one yard line.

If the,

the penalty of not getting it is that the other team has to start their

drive on the one yard line.

I just like,

I feel like you usually get a punt back and you get good

field position. You lose that benefit but I also

like coaches that say if. Yeah Doug Peters

is going to do it. If we can't get a yard

we don't deserve to win this football game. Yeah Doug Peters

is going to do that a hundred times out of a hundred.

I just. The math.
And I'm

not a big math guy but I like

I always. Whenever you go for it on fourth

and one from the one yard line you don't get it. You're like alright

at least safety. We're about to

get a safety. Yeah you have that benefit but I do

I like the aggressiveness

and I'm going to be I always, whenever you go for it on fourth and one from the one yard line, you don't get it. You're like, all right, at least safety.

We're about to get a safety.

Yeah, you have that benefit.

But I do, I like the aggressiveness and I like believing in your offense at the end of the half and being like, okay, let's step on their throats.

Yeah, but the Jaguars are good.

The Jaguars are good.

Pete Prisco was right.

We have to give Pete Prisco credit.

Pete Prisco was right.

Jaguars are eight and three.

Very much in the conversation for the one seed, even though they did lose to the Chiefs. Did they play the Ravens? They have not played the Ravens yet.
They play the Ravens in a couple weeks, which will be a big game. I think there's a Sunday night game.
Yeah, that will be a big game for the potential one seed. But, yeah, the Jaguars are very good, and they will almost – what did you say, 93%? 93% chance.
And now they're looking for that one that one i'm just trying to do the math on this on a two-point conversion teams make it what like around it's between like 15 depending on the offense depending on the offense if it's at the one yard line you would think that that would be quite a bit higher like 60 of the time right right so if a touchdown and extra points with seven points you can figure that's probably worth around four points 3.7 points or whatever you have per time lost me but i keep going and then a field goal is worth three that's not totally automatic it's like 99 of the time if you kick it from one so i feel like the math does favor going for it on the one yard line at the end of that half even though you're right getting the benefit of if you don't get it, you can still claw two points back. Or just get a punt, and if you stop them, you get a great plus field position on your next drive.
That's big. I like the aggressiveness from Doug.
Doug's going to do what Doug's going to do. He's going to do it.
All right, next up, the Indianapolis Colts, who if the season ended right this second, would be in the playoffs.

Yeah.

Beat the Bucs 27-20.

It was, the Colts are, they're just a fun team to watch.

And everything's starting to like look good for the Colts. Jonathan Taylor looks like old Jonathan Taylor.

He was just running through people, getting the second level.

Like he had a couple touchdowns.

I, like they're not super flashy, but they just win games. I do think the Bucs stink.
I think the Bucs stink. I know that I am biased because we have a coworker who refuses to admit the fact the Bucs stink, even though Baker Mayfield's a tough motherfucker and he just continues to try to just piece everything together.
The Bucs do stink, but the Colts are 6-5 and the 7th seed right now no one thought that was going to happen i think i think there's a chance they hang on to it too what was their preseason win total we just have to remember here's what's happening right now i can feel it happening in real time baker mayfield is very good at home yeah and he's not sorry not baker gardener minch who's very good same guy he's uh he's not that great on the road. So we always fall in love with Gardner when he wins a game because he's fun to watch, and it's electric watching him when he's playing well.
And we forget that the bad with Gardner can be pretty bad. Yeah.
But the Colts, I guess they probably control their own destiny right now. They're over-under for preseason over-under with 6.5.
Yeah Six and a half. Good team.
They're just good.

And they have some very winnable

games coming up on their

schedule. I was looking at it and I think

a reasonable

estimation is the Colts

getting to nine, possibly ten wins, which

is crazy. This is

Shane Steichen, coach of the year.

Yeah, him. Coach of the year.
Mike Tomlin.

I mean, it's crazy. You always have to mention Tomlin.
Like losing your first-round pick, whatever, two games into the season, and sitting here in the end of November and being in the playoffs, it's nuts. He's a really good coach.
Did you see what happened with Shaq Barrett this week? Yeah, he retired but then came to the game. No, so he didn't retire, actually.
It it was phrased very weird i think it came out on tuesday and it just said like thank you for everything that you've done for a shack and it was a message from the colts organization and then the story came out that they they cut him um but it made it seem like either he was he was retired asked for his release release or died it was like a very somber message that they sent out. And then they ended up waiving him.
He cleared waivers, and then he went to the game and watched from a suite in the Colts stadium. So, yeah, what's going on? I don't know what's going on with that.
Also, I don't know how he cleared waivers because I feel like there's enough teams out there that need a linebacker. I know that his back's not great, but it was a really situation yeah we also had jim ursay getting into a battle with i think first take on uh tuesday he was very upset he was very very upset he was uh let's see uh first take you're gonna get your ass sued because there was no alcohol no illegal drugs 29 000 is low for me to be carrying in 2014 arrest.
I give away 2000 to $10,000 to the homeless and needed on the street all the time and pass it on making the world better. And they said, and on first take the woman that preceded Stephen a, how dare you pretend to know me? I don't know your name.
I don't care to, if my black mother, Dorothy was still alive, you'd be in some big hot water. You are mean and ugly.
You are a nothing burger. Shout out to black mom, Dorothy.
Dorothy Bloodsaw was my black mom. She carried me in the house in Lincolnwood, Illinois on 1959, June, and raised me in the light of Christ.
I would be dead if not for her unconditional love. She showed me that Jesus was my savior.
I owe everything to her. Yeah, he went on a real...
He said he pulled, like, some of my best parents are black? Yeah. He went on a weird tweet.
Yeah, he was mad at first take. Yeah.
Well, I'm going to take Mr. Irsay's side of this.
He's an emoji guy, too. Oh, a big time.
Big time emoji. So I've got, naturally, I have notifications on for every Jim Irsay tweet, and they're 99% just emojis that he uses to, like, quote.
I guess he's talking about the arrest where he had $36,000 in a bag, and then I think there might have been some prescription drugs which aren't technically illegal, which might be the point that he's disputing on that one. Regardless, I'm just going to be on Team Irsay on this one.
Yeah, Team Irsay. I just feel like, Jim, I owe you.
Yeah i think it was the tuesday before thanksgiving and he was just going on a tweet storm remember when he got pulled over too he was like billionaires get uh profiled yeah he was like in a rav4 it's true it's very true he was sweatpants on i also think he was he was parked in the median yeah which might have had something to do with him getting pulled over billionaires do get profiled yeah it's bullshit i agree um but yeah the colts are good i'm i'm high on the colts it's got to be feel good to be a colts fan be like not only are we in the playoffs right now but our first round pick like hasn't played we still have that going in our back pocket yeah when a backup quarterback comes in and you guys are above 500 that's the mark of a franchise that seems to be in good hands Shane Steichen Mr. Ursa Shane Steichen coach of the year all right next one uh Falcons 24 Saints 16 the NFC South leading Atlanta Falcons at five and six they are five and six we not to sit not to pat ourselves back, but I think we did talk about this, that this is where the Falcons are going to maybe string off a couple wins and take the NFC south.
Yeah, and Arthur Smith, he took Bijan out of the doghouse. Took Bijan out of the doghouse.
He's officially outside now, right? Yeah. Bijan is maybe close to being off the leash.
19 touches, 123 yards, two touchdowns.

He's going.

He's awesome.

I would like to see him as a bell cow.

I want to see him just carry the ball as much as possible.

This was what we were saying all along.

He was waiting until football season really started.

After Thanksgiving is when you start running your running back.

Well, so he comes from Tennessee, right?

Yeah.

Arthur Smith, tractor-seto season.

Good point.

He's using that blueprint right now in Atlanta. Yeah, the the falcons listen the division is five and six it's shit mountain in in the nfc south and they're someone's gotta win it the king turd that's on top and i think that they've got the best layout for for holding on to that until the till the playoffs so i do like their chances um arthur smith said that the fal' six remaining games are going to feel like six lifetimes.

I think that's probably true because it seems like the Falcons – you're not going to blow anybody out.

They play the Panthers and Bears.

I don't know if they're built for a blowout, though.

That's the thing about the Falcons.

Their defense –

They won by nine today.

Eight today.

Is usually pretty good.

Yeah, but it was also –

Nine.

Nine.

It never felt like the Falcons were completely in control of that game.

Yeah.

It felt like it was close.

24-15.

I said 16.

That's what I mean. good yeah but it was nine nine it was it never felt like the falcons were completely in control of that game yeah it felt like it was close for 24 15 i said 16 that's my fault yeah well the saints i'm so i we do this everywhere i'm so sick of the saints get out of my face but i think i love tasem hill now yeah although jesse bates like was he had the two plays he forced the fumble on tasem hill and he had the pick six on on Derek Carr, which if you're going to play Derek Carr and he's going to throw pick sixes like that, put in Jameis Winston.
Jameis Winston is way more fun. Jameis would have at least done a better job trying to make the tackle.
Yeah. Shane, can you pass me some Tums? I'm struggling.
They also, the Falcons moved their offensive coordinator to the booth. So he's now watching the game from above.
Oh, nice. Because he thought that it would help Ritter with what he got to see up top.
So, again, this is not something that I think I've ever heard of until Hackett did it for the Jets. Yeah.
But moving a coordinator up into the booth, that's got to be the best promotion ever. Come on, walk right in front.
So shout out to him for getting that done. Shane, he needs some too.
He needs some Tums too. Oh, no, he's got to change that.
Yeah, I like moving the offensive coordinator up and down, back and forth. Who do you got, a team of Corderell Pattersons or a team of Taysom Hills? Taysom.
Corderell doesn't pass. Yeah, but he's faster.
He is faster. I think a team of Corderells on defense would kind of neutralize Taysom's on offense.
My body is so broken. But then also Taysom Hill would light the fuck up out of Corderell Patterson on defense.
I just got like a flash of heartburn. And I really haven't eaten today.
It's just my body's broken. 30 to 30 tie.
What'd you eat in the past four days? Everything. So bad.
I'm like, I'm literally like this this is people think that podcasting's easy it's not my body's a dumpster right now it's a it's a garbage disposal it's if you split me open it would just be like stuffing and just gross things just coming out yeah quarter l patterson's really fast yeah sorry i'm literally like about to have a heart attack be a real shame it would be a real shame imagine the numbers it would be great numbers i promise you this if i have a heart attack i'll do it on show yeah no i mean i will i'll time it and i'll do it on air i hope that you don't but if you do no i no listen i hope i if i if i could have a heart attack that i like, I hope I do have it on air. That would be electric.
I was just like, guys, anyone else not be able to feel their left arm right now? It'd be way worse if you went home and had a heart attack. Yeah.
Yeah. It would be.
We're closer to the hospital right here. That's why I'm saying it.
Yeah. Jake is cringing at this.
As long as you're okay at the end. Right.
Exactly. a minor heart attack it's not a big deal i mean people have minor heart attacks all the big cat recording an episode part of my take from a hospital like hugh freeze in a bed yeah would be also great for numbers no days off all right i think i've i think the three times have have settled me down to the point where whatever was happening to my body just a minute ago is no longer happening good it might It might have been just having to talk about the NFC South.
My body's like, don't do this. Don't do it again.
You've said this every single week that you're sick of the Saints. My body is literally revolting.
It's saying it will not take the Saints. The Saints are also pulling out every trick in the book.
They're putting on different uniforms, trying to look cooler. The helmets they wore today suck suck you can't fool us we know that you're the saints we know we know what happens underneath those uniforms yeah yeah it's it's gross uh okay next up nfc south what's the what are the odds right now for the falcons with the nfc south they're probably i would imagine they're like it's the wrong time to bet on them now that they finally have taken over the nfc're probably minus 150 ask yourself this it's a simple question not like all rooting interests all bias everything aside which team would you like to see in a playoff game and the answer is the Falcons I would like to see Bijan Robinson in a playoff game yeah that's simple oh the coolest thing about this game was ludicrous getting repelled from the rafters oh yes and landing at the 50 yard line like the stories foretold he was singing move bitch it that was amazing that that to me rivaled the creed halftime performance granted it wasn't on the national scale because it wasn't on thanksgiving um but i fucking love ludicrous yeah and that was incredible uh the saints right now are plus 115 they don don't even have the Panthers listed.
Are they actually eliminated? I think they might be. No, they have to be.
With 10 losses? No, they could. I guess because the other teams have to play each other.
So there's. Yeah, no, someone's got to get wins.
So I think they might be mathematically eliminated. We have six more weeks.
They've had their bye. Yeah, they have five more games.
Okay, so they have five more games. Or no, they have six more games.
Have they had their bye? I don't know. That's the question.
Jake, can you look up if all four teams have played 11 games. They've all had their bye.
Okay, they've all had their bye. One, two, three, four.
They're eliminated. Six weeks left.
They can only, yeah, they can get six more wins, right? Yeah, but what I'm saying is Atlanta and like Tampa have to play each other. Like.
Yeah, but it could be like a tie scenario. Yeah, they're eliminated.
They're gone. Yeah.
They're gone. All right, Steelers-Bengals.
Steelers 16, Bengals 10. The Steelers offense looked okay.
Unlocked. 400 yards of offense.
First time in how many games, PFT? I know it was since 2020. Yeah.
It was since week two, 2020, 58 games. 58 games.
I was hoping that the Steelers would have a million yards, put up like 400, 420 yards, and outgain the Bengals and then lose. That would have been awesome.
If now all of a sudden sudden the sealers offense was good except they they just couldn't get the job done on the points department like they were in the past but yeah um maybe it's not kenny being unlocked maybe it's about naji being unchained well because naji harris looked pretty pretty good today i was gonna say though i i actually thought the biggest difference was pat fryarmuth getting passes in the middle of the field. They realized they could use the middle of the field.
He had over 100 yards. Yeah.
Like, that was, hey, look, we can actually throw in the middle of the field. This is allowed.
So, yeah, the Steelers' offense looked good. They didn't score a lot of points.
They still struggled in the red zone, but their offense looked good. They moved the ball better than they have all season long.
I also like Mike Tomlin after the game saying guys like myself and Kenny were judged based on winning and losing, and we don't run from that. He and I are winners today.
Basically just saying like, hey, whatever ugly stats you want to throw at us, we'll just take the ones that make us look good, which are wins and losses. The wins and losses.
I understand. We have to have a national conversation about mouthpieces because um it's been something that's been brewing up for a while yeah you notice it a lot when the bills are playing because you got digs and gabe davis and they they have their mouthpieces that just like hang down in front of their numbers yeah the entire time it seems like they flop up and get their field division sometimes but whatever that's an old man yelling at cloud thing if you're that upset about a mouthpiece hanging out.
Jamar Chase today had his mouthpiece in his hand during a play. Now, he made a catch, which is incredible.
That is incredible. He made a great sideline catch.
Did he hold the mouthpiece while he made the catch? Yes. Well, he did not maintain possession of the mouthpiece through two steps in a football act not as incredible not a total catch uh but he did have it in his hand when he made the catch and then dropped it after he secured the ball uh what are we doing with mouthpieces now because i feel like they've become they're supposed to be in your mouth they're an accessory now yeah they're not handpiece um the the safety you sound like old men The safety on the lions has it sticking out of his helmet.
Yep. Can we just, kids, wear your mouthpiece.
Or don't. You know what? You don't have to wear your mouthpiece.
But if you don't wear your mouthpiece, why is it just hanging off your face mask? I blame Baby Gronk. I feel like he definitely doesn't put his mouthpiece in his mouthpiece.
Steph Curry. Steph Curry.
Yeah. Problematic.
Bad. Bad.
Where are the heroes? Where are the real leaders of this generation? Yeah, we need someone to do an interview with their mouthpiece and stuff curry steph curry yeah problematic bad where where are the heroes where are the real leaders of this generation yeah we need someone to do an interview with their mouthpiece in after the game yep and just be like this is what it is this is where it should be uh the bengals their season's over obviously it ended when joe burrow uh was out for the year jake browning though yeah that that wasn't he wasn't good no and uh i. And I love when a backup quarterback comes in and we start learning weird facts about them.
And they're basically testing you to be like, how dumb of a gambler can you be? Will you bet on this based on this stupid backup quarterback fact? The fact that almost got me to take the Bengals today was Jonah Williams was high school teammates with Jake Browning uh they I think they won some state championship wrestling together uh he said that Jake Browning wants it so bad all spring and summer this year he ate nothing but ground beef salt and honey why does that does that help you play football I don know, but that also doesn't like you're just eating like steak. It's not that bad.
Brown beef, salt, and honey. That sounds pretty good.
It sounds like a diet that an actual bear would be on. Yeah, but it also sounds like I would eat that.
Maybe that's what I needed to get on. But yeah, that was the fun.
That really actually should be the test. like how how how deep do you have to dig to get a fun fact about a backup quarterback and then when you find out that they've been eating ground beef salt and honey it's like okay this guy stinks.
That sounds like a diet that a knockoff version of Andrew Tate would put you on. Yeah.
To like increase your testosterone and make you irresistible to women it's like this is the diet that the uh that the american bison eats and they're the strongest most powerful animal known to man just eat honey from a tree and then lightly salt your meat i need i need my backup quarterbacks like the the good stats are like this guy actually was a state champion javelin thrower or something in like he did you know he actually got like d1 offers for basketball not he just ate crappy food for an entire spring and summer i'll do you one better i'll just say like if he has four stars in front of his name coming out of high school right or better right that would be great because you're like wait maybe there's something inside him in there somewhere wasn't't he in the college football playoff? He was.

He got blanked.

Yeah.

That's what they should just roll with that.

He got Washington to the college football playoff.

Yeah.

That was one of the worst.

All right.

Jake Browning.

He was a four-star.

There you go.

Four-star recruit.

He was a four-star.

So that's pretty good.

And he eats ground beef, honey, and all right next game giants 10 patriots 7 oh wait wait we should talk about mike tomlin and his thanksgiving oh yeah mike tomlin invited george pickens over to his house for thanksgiving which is probably why deontay johnson made one of the the worst efforts i've ever seen on a fumble that is going to be bad tape for him on Monday morning. So I went back and watched it.
It's not just after the fumble, the entire play. And it was the play after he dropped the touchdown where he was on the side of the field that the play was being run to.
It was kind of up the middle, but it was still his side. And he just stood up.
You know, remember how like Jay Cutler, when they put him in and they like ran wildcat offense yeah he's out at wide receiver he just stood straight up yeah i'm not supposed to be out here that's what deontay johnson looked like where he just stood up and then he kind of walked towards the ball saw the fumble was like not my problem not my problem not my problem that's somebody else's area of responsibility i'm on break right yeah but george pickens was at mike tomlin's uh thanks. Incredible.
I absolutely love that. Mike Tomlin was probably just like, hey, George, just chill out.
Yeah. Look, we're getting along right now.
Just calm down. Yeah.
We were saying that when George Pickens gets his first penalty in the game, Mike Tomlin would be like, dude, we talked about this at Thanksgiving. Yeah.
Come on, George. Come on.
We went over this. And he looked better today, too.
There were a couple times where he made a nice catch and defensive back on his face and George Pickens just walked away. So we need Deontay Johnson to go to Mike Tomlin's Christmas.
Yeah, do it. That's what we're saying.
All right, next game. Giants 10, Patriots 7.
Hank, you're a motherfucker. What? It's Thanksgiving.
It's the holidays, guys. I'm positive vibes.
I miss you guys. I don't know how you did this, but the Patriots have like they're tanking correctly.
It's crazy. They're so bad.
They're tanking correctly, which completely salvages your season. You're tanking correctly.
Yeah, loss you're a terrible team it was a very good loss should we i i pose this question is mac jones so bad that we have to start feeling bad for him because like he's so bad he's so so bad i that i might start feeling like a little sad for him because he's his job is to play quarterback and he cannot play quarterback. I don't feel bad for Mac Jones at all.
He went to Alabama. True.
Alright, this is good. I don't want to feel bad for him either.
He had a great career at Alabama. He was a high first round pick, sought after in the NFL.
He gets there. He gets all these Patriots fans.
He has a hot girlfriend. He gets all these Patriots fans that are used to winning and success behind him off the bat being like, look at us.
We've got our future quarterback. The dynasty continues.
It rolls on. I'm not sad for Mac Jones at all.
I just posed a question. I'm happy you brought me back down to earth because there is a point when people get so bad at their job that you start to be like damn it's like not his fault like don't put him out there anymore which i think they probably will stop putting him out there and also don't forget the fact that he tries to kick people in their penis sure and punches people in his toucher repeatedly do you want to take those back now you don't have to defend him anymore yeah yeah he was he was a penis toucher you knew that all along.
He was along. He was touching.
He was going for – Oh, see, you're not – He's playing hard. If someone else does that in the future, they will be playing hard too for my team.
So, yeah, you're taking correctly. Yeah.
I mean, Mac Jones had some terrible throws. Bailey Zappi looked okay.
This was – I was saying it in the fourth quarter that we were heading to Tyville. If the field goal had gone in, it definitely would have ended in a tie.
Yep, yep. But I was happy it missed.
Didn't have to watch overtime. Didn't have to win.
Better draft position. You lost to Tommy DeVito, which is kind of fun.
Yeah, I hate that. I hate that.
Oh, I love it. I love it.
His dad – so shout out to Danny Boy Hustle Hard. He was with Tommy DeVito's dad today.
Tommy DeVito's Danny Boy FaceTimed me on the stream. Got to talk to Tommy DeVito's dad.
He gave me one in real life. We're definitely going to have him on the show.
And for all the people that might not remember who Danny Boy Hustle Hard is? Everyone knows who Danny Boy Hustle Hard is. He's a stand-up guy, great guy great guy he works with a lot of the players he picked up Antonio Brown from the stadium recurring guest recurring guest Danny Boye Hustle hard he's also close with our good friend Brooks Koepka so he drives a lot of those guys around but yeah we will get Tommy DeVito's dad on this show that's a guarantee it's not so bad losing Tommy DeVito it it's actually kind of fun i don't mind losing tommy devito let let let the giants have their moment with him because he is like he's a memory that giants fans will have forever he's this is fun this is a core memory that's going to be stored in the minds it's going to be the two super bowls with eli manning and then the tommy devito era yeah gonna be the most memorable points for the giants of like the last 30 years.
Let them have their fun because he is fun, and he sucked so bad when he first got in. We all thought there's no chance that this guy even gets a second chance getting onto the field, and he's actually played pretty decent.
He won two starts. Well, now, granted, in this start.
Against absolute stinker teams. Yep, correct.
The Giants. Super Bowl coach he won against.
He's the first undrafted quarterback to beat Bill Belichick since Jake DeLome in 2005. Wow.
And the Giants were the first team ever to win a game where they scored 10 or fewer points, got sacked six or more times, and had fewer than 20 rushing attempts. So this is a special win.
There also wasn't a score until a minute and 53 left in the first half. That was the longest time it took for a score to happen this year.
Yeah, it was tough. Hank, there have been a lot of lows for your Patriots this year.
But in a weird way, I don't know if this was one of them. This might have's a motherfucker.
He wanted to take the game. So when we're looking back at all the historic lows that you've had this season, there's the Saints game.
Remember when you guys got shut out at home? There's that one. Oh, really? I don't even remember that.
There was the Commander's game. There was the Germany game.
There were quite a few games that have really stood out. But do you see what I'm saying? Yeah.
He's flipped it. I know.
The Patriots being like a four-win team would have been great for us to poke them. Yeah.
The Patriots are tanking correctly. They're going to be the second or maybe first pick.
It's insane. You're going to get Caleb Williams or Drake May.
It's bullshit. Yeah, no, I understand that.

They're doing the-

I don't want Caleb Williams.

I'll say it right now.

Really?

Oh.

The fingernails?

Was it the crying?

It's the crying.

It's not, it's the wanting ownership.

I don't think that was real.

Crying.

I have no problem with the fingernails,

but I don't really have a problem with the crying.

I just don't know.

I feel like there's a lot-

What do you have a problem with?

Character issues.

Oh. No character issues.
You know what's's interesting because I think that the wanting ownership thing, that might have been a report from our good friend Mike Florio that Hank trusts implicitly. Huh.
Well, they've talked about it in games he's played. Right.
The report, I believe, was from Mike Florio. All right, then maybe it's fan fiction.
Informed speculation, sorry. Informed speculation.
Me and Florio are good. Informed speculation.
Yeah, no, this is crazy that you were tanking correctly. It just happened overnight where it was like, the Patriots are bad, ha-ha, they're bad, and now it's like, no, no, no, they're so bad, they're doing this correctly.
Yeah, just keep losing. Winning does nothing.
I like how belichick over the course of the week was just saying um i told every player on our team to be ready to play and i'm not going to name a starter until the game and then the game happens and it's mac jones again that was a very funny way to handle the whole week of like is he going to start bailey zappy or not so shout out the meme the scooby-doo meme when he pulls the the the hood off he's like oh it Mac Jones. Surprise, it's Mac Jones again, guys.
And it probably will be next week, too. Yep.
No. I don't know.
I mean, Billy Zappi didn't look that good. He threw an interception.
A bad one. But you don't want them to look that good.
So Mac Jones is the tank commander. True.
He looks so lost. So, so lost.
Yeah, I mean, he sees a little bit of pressure. He just throws the ball and forgets that there's 11 guys on the other side that can catch it.
It's facts. Oh, the interception he had today was so bad.
So bad. There was somebody in his face, and he threw the ball about like, this one was only probably like five yards short of the receiver and the linebacker, or the DB was just like, yeah, thank you.
Yeah, no, you. He throws interceptions where you're like, did he think that guy was on his team? Because he throws it where the cornerback is running a perfect route to catch the ball as a wide receiver, but he's a cornerback.
Once you see someone running at him, he just throws it. He's like, fuck it.
He doesn't know where.

He's kind of playing quarterback how we would play quarterback. He's going to complete a pass to somebody.
Yeah. And he does throw a very interceptable ball because he puts a lot of air under it.
Yeah. It's super catchable.
It's like he's being punished for being too good of a quarterback. So, yeah, you should keep him in.
Yeah. What is that? Tommy DeVito.
Yeah, you don't like that? That's an anti- Italian discrimination you're doing right now. They can't talk with their hands? I don't think Hank can do that because you don't have any Italian blood.
When you do it, it's a slur. Irish.
When I do it, it's for my people. It's a little much, but it's fine.
You might be a little upset that Tommy DeVito beats you. It's embarrassing, but that's just the season.
This is living like a loser. Is your Super Bowl now the last game of the season against the Jets? Memes.
My Super Bowl is the end of the last game of the season, so I don't have to watch anymore. But I still feel like as much as you want to tank, you're still going to want to beat the Jets.
If it's close, no. If winning or losing has us at the first or fifth pick, I want to lose.
Memes was talking like the Patriots-Jets game. Memes is a loser.
He was talking big-time loser. He was talking like it was Indiana Purdue playing for the old wooden bucket.

He's like, if the Jets win week 18 against the Patriots,

I think it will save Salah's job.

What are we talking about?

The Patriots are bad.

They're tanking.

Tanking?

They are legitimately tanking now. They are officially tanking.
They're not trying to win games. They're doing it correctly.
They're going to lose up. Memes, that was loser talk.
Yeah, but the Jets haven't beat the Patriots since, like, what, 2015? But still, why would you even want Salah saved? Yeah, you're right. It's such a meaningless game for you.
Right. That's the thing.
But it's not for memes. It means a lot to us.
But it shouldn't is the thing. Like, it should not mean anything to you in that game because you're going to look back three years from now, potentially, and say, shit, you know what? If the Redskins had lost that game to the Miami Dolphins, my quarterback would be Joe Burrow.
That's where you're at right now, Memes. Okay? So I'm speaking to you like I'm talking to myself from the future and trying to show you how impactful a meaningless game could be to you.
So you want to lose. Hank is correct.
Be smart, Memes. Hank is a great loser, which I never thought I'd say about him.
No, that's why he's a motherfucker. He's been able to flip it so quickly.
Yeah. If the Patriots had five wins, it'd be totally different.

Mm-hmm.

My body's falling apart.

Okay.

Titans-Panthers.

Do we have to talk about this game?

Titans-17, Panthers-10.

No, I don't think we need to talk about it,

but the only thing is David Tepper walked out of the locker room

after the game shaking his head and saying, fuck.

Oh, yeah, Frank Reich's on the hot seat.

Can I correct you on that? Oh, worse. It's worse than that big cat.
It's worse. Per Will Kunkel.
Is that a fake name? Am I getting Will Kunkel? I think he's real. Per Will Kunkel, I'm told Frank Reich's coaching seat is, quote, on fire.
On fire. Per source.

On fire. If you put that his seat's on fire and he's not actually fired tomorrow, Will Kunkel should lose whatever checkmark he has.
This is why when we go to the depressed rankings of franchises, I think the Panthers are still one because David Tepper, like Panthers fans, You're going to have to deal with this guy fucking up for the next like five to ten years until he realizes he can't be a micromanager of an NFL franchise. And then there will be a moment where he realizes he has to stop being this guy, but he's not going to stop being this guy for a while.
Bring back Jeans Friday. Yeah, that's right.
RIP. But what's going to happen is he's going to say that he's realized he can't be micromanager in about two years right and he's still very much going to micromanage yes but he's going to be like i've learned that i have to take a step back and let the football people make the football decisions and then that's not going to work out because he's still going to be behind the scenes managing everything and And then I'd say probably like three years after that, he's going to take like a half season off being a micromanager.

It's something that you have to wean yourself off. Yeah, yeah.

If you're a guy that's as powerful as David Tepper has been in his past life.

I don't want to – I'm not wishing anything ill on David Tepper,

but a lot of times becoming less of a micromanager,

he has to have a major life incident to be like perspective. Maybe I don't need to be in the office all the time divorce i don't know i went for a soft one yeah that was a nice soft i appreciate um separate trial separation trial separation he has to go through some emotional strife and maybe like oh you know what maybe his his private uh plane has some really bad turbulence yeah it's like uh Eye-opening moment.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Almost famous.
He has a moment where he's like, I'm about to die. Maybe I shouldn't be a dick to all my coaches.
Maybe if one of his yachts burns down when he's not on it. But he was supposed to be on it at the time.
The market crashes. Yeah.
No, I think it's like you've got one of your yachts in the Grand Cayman. You were supposed to be there, but you got called away on emergency business to fire your head coach.
Yeah. And while you're supposed to be on that yacht, it burned to the ground.
Microwave started a fire on the yacht. And you could have died on that yacht.
Then you have your come to Jesus moment where you're like, okay, some things are bigger than me fucking with my sports. I got to chill out.
I got to rub my brass testicles that are sitting on my uh that just alone the fact that he has brass test testicles sitting on his desk and he rubs them i don't how can you be a coach and walk into that office and your boss has nuts on their desk and think that you are anything but neutered and you and you have to walk into that office like i think frank reich has to meet with him like six times a week well he's probably in the office the entire time just getting berated oh man and frank reich looks so sad today so sad he looks he looks like an elderly bird and he's just so depressed he doesn't want to be doing that job anymore right the other thing that will happen is david tepper like enough losing will happen that he'll be like maybe i don't know what i'm doing because that also happens to these owners where they're like fuck i don't know what i'm doing and i kind of would rather win than be in control but usually it's the reaction is we're losing so badly that i need to do what i'm doing but harder yeah yeah and then that fucks everything up worse so good on the titans for winning yeah also good on will levis after the game owning a mistake he said i think i use capitulate instead of matriculate in the presser today it's been killing me i apologize to all my former english teachers oh thank you will will gets it that's good will levis gets it that's good hank difference between capitulate matriculate matriculate is when you're working the ball down the field. Yeah.
Capitulate is a sickness. Capitulate is like David Tepper's yacht could capitulate.
Actually, that's capsize. It gets sick.
It gets COVID. Like bow to you.
Yeah. Like say, okay, you got it.
Like the bow of a boat? Yes, like the bow of a boat. Surrender.
The bow about ejaculate hank which one's that i love when people use that wrong yeah like you got ejaculated from the game that always makes you laugh people are doing it though on purpose now and that doesn't make me laugh because there was an original guy who did that and it was fucking awesome yeah how could you ejaculate him for this mistakes are funny um when also you can say ejaculate when you're talking it also means to talk to say a lot of words like i'm ejaculating right now you should use that use it every day yeah it's an ejaculation podcast that's what we do all podcasts this podcast is just all of us just just five dudes ejaculating for two hours. Okay.
Hell yeah.

I mean, my body is like, I'm like a geyser right now.

I'm like bubbling over.

I'm about to, my volcano.

I'm ejaculating.

I'm ejaculating.

All kinds of noises and everything.

I don't think the Panthers are going to win a game again.

They should.

They have the Bucs.

Win.

At the Bucs.

That's not a win. At Saints.
Win. Loss.
Falcons. Win.
At the Bucs. That's not a win.

At Saints.

Win.

Loss.

Falcons.

Win.

Loss.

Packers.

Loss.

Loss.

Loss.

At Jaguars.

Loss.

Probably the Bucs again.

I think Bucs at home last game.

Again?

Yeah, maybe.

What was your guys' bet with Steve Smith preseason?

We won it.

I think he said like five wins.

Doesn't it feel good to win that bet?

It's like hats.

Yeah, we get hats. We get hats.
We get free hats. So So counterpoint to the Mac Jones thing, I do feel bad for Bryce Young.
Yeah, I do. Because I feel like this is.
And he seems like a nice guy. This is malpractice what he's having to experience.
He does seem like a nice guy. He's never, to my knowledge, punched anybody in their testicles or penis.
So I feel bad for him. I cried in a DUI picture.
I feel bad for Panthers fans too. Yeah.
No, it's bad. It's bleak.
It's very bleak. Because you're just being this bad and then not having your pick.
Yeah. It's a real shame.

I think what was wrong.
And Matt Stafford came back. Yeah, what was wrong was that Brett Rippon was their quarterback.
Yeah, but they also, I mean, Matt Stafford played in the game against the Steelers. He played in the game against the Cowboys.
Yeah, the Rams are in that group of teams. Like, hey, someone's got to get the 6th and 7th seed and seven seed yeah they're not out of it the fun story from this game was the Cardinals linebacker Jesse Lukita he got a flat tire on the way to the game and then a Cardinals fan on the way to State Farm stopped him picked him up and drove him to the stadium that's cool that's like your dream scenario is a diehard if you're a diehard Cardinals fan that's as good as it gets right there yeah it's like oh i drove the guy to the stadium that is very good for me i'm part of the team and kyron williams was incredible he they were just the rams were just running it down the cardinals face yeah like the entire second half they're running down down their face uh he had 143 yards on the on the ground 61 in the air and two touchdowns he was awesome yeah sean Sean McVay should be talked about in not the same era, but he's similar to Mike Shanahan, where he can plug and play running back and get results out of him.
I got chastised when we did our NFL coaches draft, and I picked him, I think, in my first or second round. People online were like, Sean McVay's overrated.
He won one Super Bowl. No, Sean McVay, he's a very good coach.
He's an incredible coach. He's a really good coach.
By the way, Jake, remind us, maybe July 26th, we'll do the coach's draft again. That's Friday.
25th. Yes, perfect.
I already have all-time rankings for position groups that day. That's a busy day.
And Hank takes the GNLCN econ class. That's a full show.
That whole day? Yeah, both of those on that day. Okay, so that's our full show.
Well, in the summer? Yeah, July 25th. That's a perfect time to just do a show of complete nonsense.
I have to do summer school? Yeah. It's also around the takeies, usually.
No, it's a little later. A couple weeks later, yeah.
We'll be okay then. We'll be good.
So we're tripling up that day? Yeah. Yeah, put it on there.
That won't be a problem for us. I'm thinking 49ers quarterbacks might be probably the best one, right? 49ers quarterbacks pretty good.
Yeah. Where would you go with – I guess you'd have to go Chiefs tight ends.
Yeah. You get Tony Gonzalez and Travis Kelsey with that one.
You get those two. Well, I mean...
What about Packers quarterbacks? Oh, good point. One, two Super Bowls.
What about Patriots quarterbacks? Just Mac Jones? You go Patriots tight ends. Yeah.
Aaron Hernandez between the lines was pretty good. Yeah.
Okay. Oh, I had one other thing from this game.
PFT, this is a question for you specifically for no reason whatsoever. Greg Dortch.
Yeah. He did the two small.
He did. When the Cardinals were down 37-8, he scored a touchdown to make it 37-14.
He did the too small. Greg Dortch is 5-7.
Yep. That's too small to do the too small.
No, I think that Greg Dortch has probably been hit with the too small his entire life. But 37-14? He gets a chance.
Listen, I'm taking the score out of the equation. You asked me if he was too small to do too small.
Okay, but no, I think the score matters. No, I don't think it does.
I think it definitely does. I think if you're asking me, is he too small to do the too small? It's a two-part kind of combo question because the score matters.
I think that the score. If he had done the two small.
The score is its own question. In a winning game, I would have been like, eh.
But then he did it, and then I was like, wait, isn't he short? So it's kind of like doing it when you're losing by that much leads to follow-up questions mostly. How tall are you, Greg Dortch? So if you are losing by that much, you should never do the two small.
small right regardless of the size you are because you're opening yourself up for directly just somebody points at the scoreboard correct and then they point at the score and they say your score is too small you're opening yourself up for that correct now if you're a 5-7 person and you happen to score a touchdown that puts you up by 30 points yes then you can do the two and they're too That's fine. So, no, I don't think he's too small to do the two small.
I think their score was too small. But I think if he was like 6'3", and he does the two small even down 37-14, at least it's not like the follow-up question doesn't happen, where it's like, hey, how tall are you? He opened himself up.
i think if you're tall and you're down by that much and you do the too small everyone's just

like that dude's an asshole yeah if you're short and you do too small at least you have people like

me who are taller by the way than five seven who pointed him and say that's the first time he's

been able to do the too small on somebody okay and he just he saw a shot he took it not the right

time not the right place but i understand why he did it i mean he's just he's probably gotten too

Thank you. able to do the too small on somebody okay and he just he saw a shot he took it not the right time not the right place but i understand why he did it i mean he's just he's probably gotten too small his entire life oh so many times and so he just turnabout is what he's looking for on this one yes um but yeah you should not do the too small if you're down by 20 points yeah uh okay next up broncos 29 browns 12.
Gommie. Let's go.
It was weird because it happened on safety. Oh.
It was 27-12, and they got like a meaningless safety at the end of the game, the Broncos. Oh.
Jake, do you think – So it was never on the radar. Do you think that Gommies have gone too mainstream? Do you think Gommies sold out because – Have we had this conversation before? No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
No, I'm not saying that there are too many. I'm saying have they gone too mainstream? Oh, like too many people know about them? Because the broadcast of the game put it on the final score that Jake got his picture with that said, this is the first time this score has ever happened in NFL history.
Yeah, so it's like real. It's a real stat that the NFL is tracking now.
Yeah, there's always a real stat. Yeah, but if they're acknowledging it, it's a big deal.
So is this like mission accomplished? You've got the NFL to acknowledge it? Yeah, pretty much. Listen, I'm reformed.
You need to enjoy your Gommies however you want because it makes you happy. Exactly.
My point about them happening too often is This is a big year for them. This is a huge year forami's we've been getting a Gami Bukaki yeah it's been a lot and I support you Jake my question was just do you feel like if you're a fan of an underground band and then you see them on MTV you're like all these people aren't really fans of this band name three of their songs yeah you were freaking out about Gami's way before it became mainstream.
Yeah, but now the whole world knows about it. Jake ejaculates every time there's a Gami.
Yeah, he does. Yeah, he's doing it right now.
Yeah. Oh, he just ejaculated again.
Oh, okay, nice. Got quite the salmon out there, Jake.
Yeah, the Browns, this was a scheduled, in the rollercoaster Brown season, this was a scheduled lose the game and also get a bunch of injuries. Miles Garrett.
Miles Garrett, Amari Cooper. That's not good.
DTR got concussed. It was just, they can't have a couple weeks in a row where people don't get hurt and also good things happen.
Yeah, Miles Garrett seems like, I don't know what it was. He said after the game that he felt a pop in his shoulder.
That's not what you want to hear in a press conference. No.
You'd much rather not hear the pop. But the Browns, I feel bad because I do want Joe Flacco to get in.
But I don't even think that Joe Flacco can fix this because they seem to be snake bit. Yeah.
Might get hurt. On the other side, he definitely would get hurt.
Yeah. Also, I don't really understand the Browns.
I know that their season, they're trying to cobble it all together offensively. Their defense is still very, very good.
They threw the ball 42 times today. With P.J.
Walker and DTR, just run the ball. Run the ball.
ball be like triple option you know what i i didn't think that dtr looked that bad when he was playing but still just like they i think they had a goal line at the end of the first half where they they might have passed on second and third down just run the ball down people's throat you you're averaging four and a half yards carry just run the fucking ball i i agree with that that's what ke Stefanski should always do. He should get it tattooed, and he should look at it every single day.
He should stare himself in the mirror and say, run the damn ball. They did have a touchdown pass that was dropped.
I think it was Njoku that dropped it. Yeah, his hands.
He's all-time. One game he can look like the best tight end in the world, and the next game it's like, do his hands work? Yeah, and the way that we're talking about the Browns, it sounds like they're like 4-7.
They're actually 7-4. But it's like harder and harder to see the path forward when all these guys keep getting injured.
Especially in that division, which is going to be really, really tough. On the other side, the Broncos.
The Broncos might be playing the best football in the AFC right now. You said they're the best team in the NFL right now.
No, I'm saying they're playing the best football. I'm saying you said that.
You were testing. You were trial ballooning that on the stream, and everyone's like, what? But, I mean, look at who they've beaten recently.
I'm talking about the last, like, four weeks. Yeah.
I'm talking about right now the Broncos are, I think, undeniably a good No they are. They're very they are.
Their defense has been completely now obviously the 70 point game skews a lot of things but the first five games of the season they were giving up 36.2 points per game. The last six games they've been giving up 16.5 points per game.
Yeah. Like they've figured out Russell Wilson wasn't lighting the world on fire today, but making enough plays.
The Broncos are good. They are good.
And they're inching closer and closer to that seven seed, and it would be... I mean, could you win coach...
He might be... Sean Payton might be my coach of the year.
Sean Payton might be my comeback player of the year. Yeah.
For what he's done to himself this year. It's crazy.
From the giant hole he's had to crawl out of to get the Broncos where they are right now. It's honestly incredible.
And Russell Wilson does look like he cares. That's the thing.
At the start of the season and last year, he didn't really look like he cared that much. And now he looks like he's playing for his teammates, which is great to see.
And his teammates look like they like him.

Yeah.

Next week, actually, is the Loser Leaf Town game.

Broncos-Texans.

Yeah.

Because right now, the Broncos are the ninth seed or ninth in the standings and the Texans are eighth.

That's going to be a huge separation.

So Colts, Broncos, Texans, gun gun to your head who makes the playoffs texans bills bills but the bills have such a hard schedule bills are i i think the bills might be done bills are definitely in the if we did the same uh thing that we did with the nfc where it's like who would you want to see it's texans or bills yeah those no offense to the broncos or the colts but i would like to see cj stroud or josh allen is the seventh seed i would too so well also it might it might be two of those teams that get in yeah because i mean the browns might this this might start falling apart for the browns especially if miles garrett's hurt yep um okay next game-Raiders. Remember when the Raiders were up 14-0? The final score was 31-17.
Yeah, so the Chiefs learned how to play football in the second half. It wasn't even the second half.
It was the third drive. The third drive.
The first two drives, they had 13 total yards, and then after that, they scored on their next seven drives, they scored 31 points. Patrick Holmes had almost 300 yards passing.
It was, yeah, they basically woke up and were like, hey, wait, we're the Chiefs. What are we doing right now? Rasheed Rice.
That's what happened. This is what we've been saying.
So Rasheed Rice might be the guy in Kansas City. Now, that's a very low bar considering the receivers that they have have right now and they didn't really have any other options today because Tony was out Hardman was out and uh Rice had over 100 yards I think he's their first 100 yard wide receiver of the season which is crazy to think that Patrick Mahomes and that offense they have not had a 100 yard receiver yet this season Rasheed Rice looked good today he probably could have had more if they didn't take their foot off the pedal at the end this is the old visualization trick it's Patrick Mahomes sitting down uh he's sitting somewhere in the Kansas City let's say he's sitting uh in a big room overlooking the Kansas City Chiefs practice uh field with Aaron Andrews It's late December, and Aaron Andrews is like, talk to me about how these young receivers have come along.
And then they show a highlight of Rasheed Rice just ripping people up. And that's exactly what's going to happen.
That's what's going to happen. I can't wait for that clip to happen, and I'm going to be like, see, you just visualize it.
They have no more Fox games this year. Okay.
Fuck Jake. Tracy Wolfson.
Damn it. Who else does the CBS? Like those like Nate Burleson.
Maybe Nate Burleson. No.
God damn it. Who else does sit down? Boomer does that.
I don't know. I'm just saying.
Yeah. No, maybe Kyle Long.
Kyle Long might. Oh, actually that.

Yeah.

Tony Gonzalez.

Yeah.

Tony Gonzalez. I could see that for sure.

Okay.

All right.

All right.

Yeah.

Yeah.

But one of those, one of those guys and be sitting there.

Or they have a Monday night game.

So it could be like Michelle Bisoner Buck.

Michelle Bisoner Buck.

That's it.

When's their next Monday night game?

Because they play the Patriots.

Oh.

And you can flex Monday night now.

But that also is a time to fill a lot of air being like, let's do a whole broadcast about Patrick Mahomes. Yeah.
And passing of the torch. It's going to happen.
But if that game stays, Michelle Basner-Bucks doing that piece. Yep.
It's going to happen because the Chiefs, like Rasheed Rice, this was the first game. Like you said, PFT, first time over 100 yards.
Like this is – one of these guys is going to come along. It's going to be Rasheed Rice and somebody has fine because it seems like every week there's a different receiver on the Chiefs who absolutely stinks yeah and so it's good to have like one guy that you can depend on he's from SMU right I believe SMU guy um yeah so the Chiefs I think they figured out a way to turn their offense around they did get 17 points in the second half today after being uh held scoreless in all second halves going back a month yeah so uh credit to andy reed the chiefs will be fine we've always said the chiefs will be fine their defense was awesome in the second half too they they held the uh devontae adams to no catches in the second half 113 yards total uh against the raiders offense like they chiefs defense is good chiefs defense very good and the chiefs will be fine but it was weird watching the first we knew it though watching it the chiefs were down 14 nothing and we're like should we live bet the chiefs and they were plus 120 to win the game yeah which is ridiculous down 14 nothing yeah that's just that people know the chiefs are the chiefs and if you're a if you're a raiders faniders fan, Josh Jacobs is awesome.
Have fun watching Josh Jacobs. They should have been giving him the ball more this season, last season, the season before.
Hang the banner. You're up 14-0 on the Chiefs.
Yeah. It looked like it was going to be a win.
Also, Antonio Pierce, maybe future head coach. Tony Pierce.
Tony P. Tony P and LV.
You like that, Hank? All right. Last game.
Max. Eagles 37.
Bills 34. Now, just so everyone knows, Max did not watch a snap of this game.
That's incorrect. Oh, how many snaps did you watch? I watched a quarter and a half at the beginning and then overtime.
Jerry O'Connell. What happened during the game, Max? The Eagles won the football game.
No, but I mean, like, what happened? Why weren't you watching the rest of the game? I was on a plane. Oh, that's interesting.
Did you not know that they play football on Sundays in the fall? I did know that. Oh, you're dealing with the same burps as I have, where it's like your body can can't speak and it has too much air.
My body's just a blimp right now. My body's dead.
My entire body is dead. So, yeah, your body is dead.
Let's talk about that before we talk about the game. Your foot, you had a medical.
We should talk about the game. No, you had a medical emergency.
Your foot, you have a little walking boot on now? Yes. It's cute.
Yeah, it is cute uh you had a medical emergency an infection that you've been dealing with for a year not for a year for people who are going to say hey is a foot injury like maybe amputation does max have diabetes he does not he might not diabetes he might but he doesn't right now that we know of no i would no so what's happening with your foot uh just have an infection in my foot. I was at the ER until like 4 o'clock last night.
I'm running on fumes. How did you get an infection in your foot? I had an ingrown toenail removed last week.
It was removed, and then since the removal, it got very infected. been it's been infected for how many months it's

not it hasn't that's incorrect you've talked about your foot hurting for so i've had a problem with ingrowns in my foot for about a month but i normally get it removed and then you're just a disgusting human being i don't i mean people have ingrown toenails like that's the thing yeah But listen, I'm going to give you a little tip here, Max, as a larger man myself.

Like, whatever. human being i mean people have ingrown toenails like that's the thing yeah but listen i'm gonna

give you a little tip here max um as a larger man myself like whenever you keep bringing everything

comes back to this well everything comes back to being fat yes because when you have these type of

medical issues you're such a fucking dickhead no when you have you're just such a no when you have

medical issues no every fucking medical issue people always are like damn dude you're gross

That happens to me too Yeah

It's

No, it's every fucking medical issue. People always are like, damn, dude, you're gross.
That happens to me too. Yeah.

People are like, oh, can he not reach his feet? Things like that. You're, you're.
Can we just talk about the fucking needles? Can you just send me the picture of your foot? I'm tired. Hope you feel better.

Hank, are you loving this?

Max, I do like your slipper that you've got on.

It's real nice.

I don't even know what I'm doing.

I don't even know what I'm looking at on my phone right now.

You're sending me the picture of your foot because you said it's so gross.

Me too.

Who wants to see it?

Just send it to everybody.

Send it to everyone.

Send it to everyone.

You get everyone's reaction at the same time. I'm nervous.
I'm nervous. I'm nervous.
Why is it? I mean, we can cut this. Is this because your fingers are too fat? You can't text? You're such a fat.
It's true, though. It's like when there's a fart in a room, everyone points to the fact.
I know. When something like a medical emergency, they're like, well, you probably should take better care of yourself.
That happens to me. Oh, Max.
Oh, that's not that bad. I don't think it's that bad.
That's pretty bad. That's not that bad.
It just looks like a bad bug bite. It's pretty bad.
No, it's not that bad. I don't like feet.
Can we put it in the YouTube? No. Why not? Because it's going to get the YouTube taken down.
Memes, please put it in the YouTube. It's going to get the YouTube taken down.
No, it won't. All right, I'll tweet it tomorrow if enough people ask me.
No, don't tweet it. Yeah, I will.
I will. People are going to ask.
Max, at what point did you decide to get that looked at? When the whole toe was red? No. Well, so I went.
It's not even red. It's like purple.
Yeah. I mean purple yeah i mean it's it looks kind of like a penis looks like a frostbite yeah yeah it's a serious it was a serious thing your toenails are gross dude i i also just got a fucking pedicure dude wait that whoa you went and got a pedicure with a massive swollen those women i'd like to interview'd like to interview one of those women.
Have you ever seen anything like this? You're just an ingrown toenail factory. Was that like part of the doghouse? Like, will we get pedicures together? The doghouse.
Why'd you get a pedicure? My mom wanted me to get a pedicure. I don't know.
I got a pedicure. Just kidding.
I zoomed in. It's pretty bad.
Yeah, it's bad. Yeah, it's bad.
So did they drain it? Honestly, actually, no, they didn't. Memes almost just puked.
I don't think it's that bad. Zoom in on it.
Yeah, I'm looking. He's gross.
He's got an ingrown toenail. He doesn't know.
He can't reach his feet. Ingrown toenails happen.
No, they don't if you take care of it.

Jake, didn't you have an ingrown?

Yes, I had one.

But when it starts to get ingrown, you cut it.

No, you don't understand what a fucking ingrown toenail is.

I went to urgent care.

It goes into your skin.

Jake, no offense to you, Jake, but you going to urgent care does not count as a medical emergency.

Yeah, I know. Jake sees a dog and he go into urgent care does not count as like a medical emergency yeah i know like sees a dog and he goes into urgent care um i know max is right though because ingrown is different where you can't cut it out it's just you like it's in there but it's get it there's a point before no that you can cut it out what an ingrown toenail is okay i guess i just i'm a fucking adonis i'm a freak I'm a freak athlete Adonis that has a perfect body.
All right, Eagles, 37 bills, 34. Eagles are just good, and they just make big plays, and that Jalen Hurts touchdown pass to Olamidi.
A lot of me, Zaccheaus. Thank you, Jake.
That's beautiful. It was incredible.
Jake Elliott, 60-yard field goal. Make Elliott.
They're fucking – they just make big play after big play after big play. That's just what they are.
And if you want to say that they're lucky, go ahead and say they're lucky. I think it's just they have dogs that make big plays.
They're lucky, but they're lucky all the time. Right.
That means that they're doing things to make themselves lucky. And they have just such a good trait to have for a team.
Right. Some people are asking if they're the worst 10-1 team of all time.
I'm not going to ask that question. I do not think they are.
I don't think that they are. I think that there's at least a few teams that were 10-1 that are worse than this team.
I think they're just very good. I think they're good.
The elements sucked today. It was a shitty day in Philadelphia.
Jalen Hurts didn't play his best game. He threw some touchdowns, but in the first half he had 33 yards passing.
It wasn't great from him early on. They are just good.
They do a lot of small things really well. And on the other side of it, I think that there's something about the Bills and about Josh where they're just kind of snakebit in a weird way.
I have an idea. There's got to be a German word for someone who's consistently great but also extremely unlucky.
Yeah. And it's McDermott.
McDermott is the German word. The German word.
Sean McDermott. The defense at the end of the game on that final drive.

He did it again.

It was bad.

Soft zone kills the Bills again.

And look, I like Sean McDermott.

He's been on the show a couple times.

He's a very nice guy.

I think he's a good coach.

I think right now they've kind of gotten to a point where maybe it's just a

change of scenery because not only the soft zone,

but the timeout you have, there's 25 seconds left, and you have two timeouts, and Jake Elliott's coming out for a 59-yard field goal, and they're rushing out for a 59-yard field goal. Why in the fucking world do you use one of those timeouts to ice the kicker when you have Josh Allen on the other sideline who's playing his balls off can – with two timeouts in 20 seconds, you can get 30, 40 yards.

Like, it made no sense.

And then they go and they kneel it and they play chicken shit football for overtime.

Sean McDermott, it's – he's – I honestly think he has, like, the coaching yips right now.

Yeah, it's – the defenses at the end were bad.

Those timeouts actually mattered at the end of the game. I also think they should have tried to get some yards even with one timeout right at the end of the game yes agree it was bullshit but you definitely you definitely would have rather had two time he probably still wouldn't have tried to go for yeah two timeouts but i feel bad i like josh made that throw in overtime that should have been a touchdown yeah Gabe Davis ran the wrong route at.
I hated to see that.

Obviously, I'm partial to the bills because I like Josh Allen we're very biased that's the reason why I was rooting for the bills today I like Josh I want to see him succeed I like Buffalo I want to see their fans be happy I want to see them get to the playoffs um it seems like they're just they've reached the point where bad shit unlucky shit happens to josh all the time in buffalo for whatever reason it is you can talk about the defense you can talk about a lot of stuff um it just seems like there's something weird going on there where uh i feel bad and i want to see him succeed but it doesn't feel like they're in the right position to do that right now i i going to ask a question that I don't really want the answer to because I think I'm just going to get triggered online if I ask this question. But, like, are we partially to blame for people just not liking Josh Allen? I don't get it.
So he had one bad pick. If you watched that game and thought Josh Allen was the problem, you're out of your fucking mind.
He was bawling his ass off. He was making every play.
He had four total touchdowns. He was running everywhere for every first down.
He was throwing the ball. That Stefan Diggs throw was insane.
He had one bad pick. You're right.
Edwarder tweeted this after the game. This game, this was the 40th time a team since 1970 had 500 yards of offense, 10 third down conversions, and a positive turnover margin.
Teams were 39-0 up until this point. Like Josh Allen, that was not an offensive problem.
They scored 34 points with 500 yards of offense. He played almost a perfect game.
The Bills defense just let them down.

And again, I'm not even like taking it away from the Eagles because the Eagles just make big play after big play after big play.

That's what they do.

They just make big plays.

Like they are a bunch of dogs that make big championship type plays

when the moment calls for it.

Yeah.

What about Josh being 0-6 in overtime?

Again, that's – I know, and the fact that the rule got changed for him. For him.
That's a stat that's going to follow him around. But I just don't – like, I understand Josh Allen has not played great for periods – He was really good today.
The reason that the Bills are 6-6, Josh has had some bad games that have put him in this hole. Like, they played bad teams.
They lost to the Patriots. They lost to the Broncos.
They lost to the Jets. If they win any of those three games

or two out of three of them,

it's a completely different looking season right

now. You can't excuse away the

games where he's looked bad. Today was

not one of those games. If you're

criticizing Josh Allen after this game, you're wrong.

He has had games

that have put them in this spot where they now

are must-win throughout the rest of the year.

Yeah. Max, as an Eagles fan that did not watch the game, what are your thoughts on how the Eagles played today? The Eagles made plays at the end of the game to win.
The times when I watched, they looked good. Well, no, the first quarter they didn't look good.
They were up 7-0. I literally got onto the plane after Jalen Hurts scored to go up 7-0.

I mean, this was a huge win for you, Max.

Me and Big Cat were talking about this before we got in here today.

The Eagles played so well.

I almost feel like you should be on a plane for as many games as possible.

They didn't play that well.

They won.

Yeah.

Yeah, they won a big game.

They did, and they've won lots of big games. Yeah games yeah well i'm just saying like the thought was tossed around to send max on an airplane every sunday and it just have you fly to like indianapolis and back or a helicopter or a helicopter that just he made a joke about the helicopter that i'm not going to repeat because you get mad at me i did not make the joke about the helicopter i asked a question could max fit in a helicopter i didn't say no i said i don't want to say i don't want to say the question but there might be regulations i was i was thinking about the regular i was thinking about safety i appreciate you you you thinking about my safety thanks max yep i didn't say it i know i didn't say either i was just i was wondering yeah i know i appreciate saying that.
But would you – if we were to put you on a first-class flight every Sunday and you'd have to miss every Eagles game – I would not like to miss every Eagles game, no. If that – Okay.
All right. We'll think about it.
I'm going to write down here. Max would not – Max, do you think – I mean, do you think it's a fair assessment? Because I think the Eagles are going to make people very angry because these games

have a way of going

about it where the Eagles

don't look... The Chiefs looked

better than the Eagles on Monday night. The Bills

looked better than the Eagles tonight.

Patriots looked better than the Eagles opening night.

I don't know about that.

The Eagles make

the winning plays

when it counts. That's just what they do.
Yeah, at this point, I don't care how you win. Just get the one seed.
Everyone's going to be on the Niners next week. It's going to be great.
No, I'm going to be on the Eagles. No, you're going to be on the Niners.
I love the Eagles. I'm shocked that the Eagles are dogs.
I love the Eagles next week. Yeah, no.
It's a revenge game for the Eagles, for the Niners saying that they only lost because of Brock Purdy. They kind of took away your win.
I know. No, I mean the Niners have been butthurt about that game.
I like that. Oh, that's weird.
It's good to get a butthurt in the wild. You would totally not be butthurt if you were in the NFC Championship game and your quarterback got hurt in the first quarter.
No, but it's one thing if the fans can be, but the players have just been crying about it for years. Feels like years.
Feels like years. Not even a literal year.
Less than a year. Also, Hank, just a quick fact check.
The Patriots were never winning against the Eagles in week one.

I just want to fact check that.

We're about accuracy on the show.

Yeah, but it rained.

That's true.

It also rained today.

And it was the first lighthouse game.

That's true, yeah.

But, yeah, congratulations.

The Eagles are just good.

They do a lot of little things correctly.

They're a well-coached team.

And then one of these days, they're going to put the second half and the first half together. And watch out.
And then that'll be nice. Watch out.
Watch out. And watch out.
No, Jalen Hurts was like, I mean, it was good. Great teams are able to figure it out when everything is not great.
And, like, it was clear that their offense wasn't great today, and he was able to figure it out and make the big plays. After the they talked to jordan mailotta and he said we actually could not believe that the bills were running that i know when we got that look dermot dude he's got the yips he's got the yips just that's not what you want to hear if you're a bills fan like no we knew the look that we were getting and we knew we were going to score a touchdown yeah and it seemed so easy it seems so every time the eagles got the ball whether it was the drive that got them in field goal range, which was, by the way, a bomb from Jake Elliott.
Just absolutely nuked that kick. In the rain.
In the rain. In the rain.
And the wind. Ben Mintz said it was the best kick in NFL history.
I don't disagree. The best kick in NFL history.
You said he could argue it. There's never been more recency bias than Ben Mintz watching that ball go through the uprights and say, that was the best kick in NFL history.
I mean, it was a really good kick. Jake Elliott said it was the best kick of his career.
Yeah, I believe that. It was a great kick.
It was a great kick. He also hit a game winner that was like a 64-yarder against the Giants, but he said this one was harder because of the rain.
And the wind. And the wind.
A couple good wins against the Commanders, too. But this was a great kick.
Do we think the Bills have any chance of making the playoffs? They have to play at Kansas City and then the Cowboys. We've been saying must win for the last couple weeks about the Bills.
At some point when they keep losing must wins. Well, they did win the must win against the Jets.
Yeah, I think they're 1-2 in their last three must wins, which is not good. No, it's a bad season for them because it just, again, I know that people really don't like the fact that we're friends with Josh Allen and we like him.
But he has put them in this hole,

but today was not the reason why they lost this game.

I think that's a fair assessment.

Josh was really good to say.

No, his play earlier in the season has put them behind the eight ball,

but today was not the day to be like Josh Allen stinks

or Sam Howell's better than Josh Allen.

I would not say that.

I never said that.

For the record, there are going to be people that listen to you and say one Washington fan. Yeah, no, it wasn't you.
It was not you. It was not me.
It was our good friend Nate. You did say it.
It's our friend Eric. Yeah.
Who's not me. Who's not you.
Not me. Who's not you.
What if they go 2-0 in their next two must-wins? I think – Against the Chiefs and the Cowboys. If the Bills go – if they go 2-0 in those two games.
Reasonably speaking, I think the seventh seed in the AFC has to get to 10 wins. So they have to go 4-1.
They have to go 4-1 in the rest of the season. So the answer is they have to go 1-1 in their next two must wins.
Yeah, they have to go 1-1 in their next two must wins and then they got to win out. And then they have a can't lose at the end of the season against the Dolphins.
Yes. Okay.
Well, the Dolphins might not be playing for anything. Hopefully.
Yeah. Long way to go.
Yeah, no, I think it's probably the odds are very much stacked against the Bills right now. And Sean McDermott has the coaching yips.
That defense, soft zone, like it was crazy. And I know guys were gassed, but man.
They were also like a half second away from forcing a fumble on A.J. Brown.
Yeah. Also, I hate to say this because Max is going to love that I say this, but the Eagles didn't have Lane Johnson today.
He's really fucking good. Yeah.
They looked a lot worse on their offensive line without Lane. He's really fucking good.
Yeah, you like to give the Niners passes for what Trent Williams is. What? I just gave you.
I literally just did that. I literally just mentioned that Lane Johnson was not in the game.
I know. I just had that in my head to say before we started talking about this.
And then you forgot it. And then I forgot it.
And then you said it. So I just had to say it.
Okay. So it doesn't count.
So it doesn't count. Because I literally said it.
It doesn't count. I was literally excusing the fact that Lane Johnson wasn't playing.
Like, from the first play of the game, that line did not look as good. Good players matter.
Yeah. Good players matter.
For every team. Good players matter.
And Fletcher Cox. Also, Jason Kelsey almost cost them the game.
Yeah. With his false starts.
Back-to-back false starts. So the Eagles won despite one of their best offensive linemen not playing

and their Hall of Fame center having one of the worst fourth quarters of his life.

But then he made a great block on the Hurts game-winning touchdown.

He did, yeah.

And I think he had to shit himself.

There was something about he had to go to the bathroom in between.

He ran to the locker room to go to the bathroom before overtime started.

How's a guy like that not get a toe infection and you do? I don't know, man. He could.
People could get it. People could get it.
Toe infection's real. People could get it.
People could get it. They almost amputated your foot? I'm still not out of the woodwork.
I mean, this thing's not getting better. That's not the saying.
Woodwork? I'm not out of the woods? You're not out of the woodwork. He said, I'm not out of the woodwork.
I don't mean scary. I think Bob Marley had a toe infection.
Yeah. The CIA put cancer in his foot.
Yeah. Then he died.
Yeah. Wow.
What if the AWL, there's a CIA operative AWL who works at the CIA. He's like, I can't take Max anymore.
Billy. Yeah.

I almost didn't come.

I almost had to stay in the hospital for this week.

For a week?

They said three days.

I swear to God, that was the discussion I was having.

Max, would you cut your toe off if it meant that the Eagles won the Super Bowl?

I would 100% do that for the Bears.

Yeah.

That was not a yes.

Put it down as not a yes.

No, that answer is yes.

That was not a yes.

I mean, I'm dealing with a lot of foot shit right now.

It's in my head.

The foot has got prime real estate in my brain right now.

You got foot brain.

I got foot brain.

It's got to suck to have a major injury that you can't reach. I got prime real estate in my brain right now.
You got foot brain. I got foot brain.

It's got to suck to have a major injury that you can't reach.

I'm the most flexible guy on this show.

No, you're not.

No, I'm way more flexible.

I'm way more flexible.

Who's the one who sits cross-legged every day?

Yeah, you're a freak like that.

That's flexibility.

Can you touch your toes?

Yes.

What's your V-sit? I don't know. What were you about to say? That was the one that I couldn't do? No, that was always my best one.
V-sit? Yeah. All right, we'll have a flexibility off PMTV this week.
We'll do a stretch. That sounds like a Viva TV.
That might be a Viva TV. No, we'll do it in the parking lot.
It'll be PMTV. Okay.
Rowback question. Promo code TAKE.
20% off your first purchase. Q-sips, polos, hoodies, joggers, shorts, and fleeces and vests.
They just sent me a big care package. PFT, what are your thoughts on the Chargers Ravens? Well, let's see.
Eckler's hurt, or at least he's running really slow. He's old, washed.
Justin Herbert leads the league in sick passes and runs that don't really amount to any any points on the board yeah um and joey boas is eating raisin bran because he's probably taking painkillers for his injured foot so he has to shit and he can't shit yet so uh that that's my wrap up of where things are over the chargers ravens look good defensively offensively they're just gonna have these games i guess yep where it's like hey can you pick up a big third down like i i i don't know i still am very high on the ravens yeah i would be too a road game is it's a road primetime game hey win a game yeah and guess what defense matters a lot and the ravens have one of the best defenses in the league and as of right now they have the one seed in the AFC. And also get Jason Garrett the fuck off my television.
The worst. I did not consent to Jason Garrett.
That's a fact. That's a fact.
You should have to opt in to a Jason Garrett product. That's part of our text message thing.

Yeah. That's the same thing as him putting on The Sopranos.
This is what we're about. We're going to watch the Columbus Day episode again.
Yeah. All right.
Hank, who's back of the week? I have a couple. First one, Dolly Parton.
Yeah. She was great.
Absolutely. Did the halftime show, the Cowboys-Commanders game.
She looked great. What was our good friend and colleague Stu Finer's tweet? I just tweeted Wood because she looked great.
She really did. She's 77.
I did it classy. I said queen.
Yeah, not me. I was full of white wine and piss and vinegar.
Listen, you can't accuse me of being horny for Dolly Parton. Of course I'm horny for Dolly Parton.
Everyone should be horny for Dolly Parton. Dolly Parton is the best American that we've ever had.
She's wonderful. She's 77.
She looks like she's 47. She gave a great performance.

Great singer.

Great entertainer.

I don't care how old Dolly Parton is.

I would suck those tits dry.

Classy.

Very classy.

It could be way worse for him.

Yeah, I expected worse, to be honest.

I've heard worse.

She buys a book for every kid in Tennessee every year.

She's just a good person.

Shout out Dolly Parton.

Dolly World.

Yeah.

You ever been?

Yeah.

It's great.

And then my other who's actually, is that in Gatlinburg?

I forget the name of the town that it's in. I think it is.

I've been to Gatlinburg.

I believe it was Dolly World.

Dollywood.

Dollywood.

That's what I was saying at my television.

My other who's back at CM Punk.

Yeah.

He was in AEW.

Now he's in WWE.

I don't fully understand it, but he gets the craziest pops.

I've never really understood the CM Punk hype.

Just being bluntly honest.

But whenever he would come on this show, clips would do crazy numbers.

Whenever he does anything,

people freak the fuck out.

Everyone ejaculated.

Yeah, everyone lost their minds

because he went from,

he's back in the WWE.

Yeah.

So he had a bunch of takes

about how WWE wrestlers

should be ashamed of themselves

for taking Saudi money, right?

And then he went to the WWE.

That's interesting.

Yeah.

But he's back.

He is back.

Big time back.

Broke the internet.

That was one of those things.

Kardashian dumper.

That was one of those things where I was watching college football

and CM Punk was just taking over Twitter.

And I wish I could understand the passion behind CM Punk.

I don't get it because I don't follow wrestling. But it seems like something people are really into.
He's a cult hero. He speaks power to what? I mean, this is going to get wrestling people upset.
Uh-oh. I like CM Punk, just so you know.
I feel like it's almost... I don't know enough to say this, but I'm going to say it it anyway i feel like it's almost like a kaepernick situation like he's no no not like the not the like uh wrestling in the aw like as of like three months ago he was still wrestling wrestling well yeah or you're not his peak you're saying that he's not good yeah i'm saying it's just all it's all talking they're like talking about him like he was you know this is a big deal four years ago and he was a big time falling out and he's just always in the headlines but i haven't seen a lot of action okay yeah from what i know about it i said he's still like technically a very good wrestler i just i'm not a big wrestling fan so i don't i don't pay attention to all the storylines, but from what I know, he's still like very much, if not at the top of his game, like kind of close to it.
Also just a great all-time character in wrestling because he like does the perfect blending real life in wrestling. Yeah, I thought he got black, I thought he got blackballed for real from WWE.
Yeah. He's back.
All right, who's your who's back? My who's back of the week is, I two. The Sun Belt is back.
12 out of 14 teams from the Sun Belt are bowl eligible. They're going to be playing bowl games this year, including JMU.
We did it. Nice.
We did it, Joe. We got JMU into a bowl game because there weren't enough other eligible teams.
You're welcome. Thank you.
Thank you, Big Cat. Thank you to Wisconsin.
Knocked off PJ Fleck. How's that boat doing? 12 out of 14 teams from the conference made it.
That's the best conference in the country in terms of bowl representation. Don't ask questions like, well, how many of those teams have like six or seven wins? Because it's a lot of them.
But still, that's pretty cool for the conference. I like the Sun Belt.
Fun brand of football. And then Christmas trees are back, baby.
Christmas trees. It's Christmas tree season.
I got to go pick mine up. I got a fake white.
You got a fake white? Fake white. Dolly Parton? I might get two.
I might get another one. Yeah, I can't co-sign on a fake tree.
You're putting a lot of Christmas tree salesmen out of business with that one. But I guess do what makes you happy.
Fake white is like, I feel like 1950s Frank Sinatra era. Or like 1970s where you have your foil TV dinner.

Yeah.

You should do it.

Your dinner is jello and ham.

It came pre-lit too.

Oh, hell yeah.

That's kind of cool.

That's easy.

Super easy.

Pre-lit.

That's what we say about Nicky Smokes.

I'm thinking about what to do in my house.

I don't know how dogs are with real Christmas trees, especially puppies. He might just destroy the tree and eat the entire tree, which would be kind of funny.
But yeah, I'm a real Christmas tree guy. Give me a Fraser Fir.
Don't give me a plastic white one. I'm a little disappointed in you, Hank.
Why? Fake white. I'm going to have two fake whites.
Oh, shit. I put one in the corner.
Stunt on them. And my other corner of the room had a plant, but it's white and green.
I was like, what if I just had double fake whites? I think if you got two fake white trees. Double fake whites.
And I know you're not like this, Hank, but my first impression, if I went to your apartment and saw that, I'd be like, Coke guy. Double fake whites.
That's a Coke guy move. Yeah, double fake whites is definitely a Coke guy move.
Alright, my who's back is us, and I think people probably don't even know this is happening right now, but the Barstool Sports Store has 20% off. Shut up.
Yeah. Probably not a lot of tweets, but yes, 20% off.
Cyber Monday is today. Do support us, please.

It does help.

We're doing a thing this year where everything above our goal is going to go to the producers and the behind-the-scenes guys.

Pay for Max's footnote.

No, I wasn't going to say Max because that's not a way to incentivize people.

Shane, Pug, who doesn't have ankles because he got crossed up.

Tune in to PMTV.

We're going to put that clip in.

Memes. Gia.
Gia gia no gia's content uh max i guess too but please yes do buy something and here's the here's the real plug is uh tomorrow or today monday we have a telethon at 7 eastern, 6 Central, but before the telethon, we are doing the first ever producer bowl in the Chicago office where we have all of the producers in the entire office, I think it's 22 total, are going to play in a competition basketball five on five with a bench to a thousand.

And we're going to you're going to say, hey, a thousand playing to a thousand.

That's going to take like 75 hours.

Yeah, that probably would because we're not good at basketball.

We're going to stop every 10 minutes and have mini games that will be worth a ton of points. So you're going to get to see all the producers compete in stupid games and win stupid prizes, and it's going to be awesome.
So we'll be live streaming that from where? Stool Streams. Stool Streams.
Talk about back. What's the YouTube? Stool Streams YouTube.
Stool Streams YouTube. So tune in.
It's going to be awesome. I'm excited for badminton.
We were doing some badminton simulations earlier. It's a very visually funny game to watch.
It's also a fun sport to watch. Yeah, you hit as hard as you can and you can't.
It doesn't go anywhere. Yeah.
Yeah. So Max will be on the IR, but Max, you'll be the heart and soul of your team, I assume, from the sidelines.
I had a joke I was about to make. Memes will be competing.
I didn't make it. I want to say it for the record.
No, no, no. Let's just keep going.
Make it. Make it to me.
Yeah. No, yeah.
Just say it to him. Say it to me.
No, no, no. Say it to me.
It's fine. Heart and soul? Yeah, and the mouth and the stomach.
Yeah, and the mouth and the stomach. Not the toes, though.
I don't care. That's over my head, but that's fine.
It's actually right beneath your head. Okay, Max.
Also, fun fact. Still thinking about it.
Yeah. Fun fact about Max is Max almost didn't even have health care because he waited until like the last 15 minutes to sign up for health care.

Oh, nice.

And then he spent the entire night worrying that he didn't get his plan in.

So that would have been a disaster, Max, if he didn't have health care with that.

I was thinking about that a lot when I was in the ER.

But yeah, good luck, Max.

He will be the heart and the soul. Yeah.
But Shane's going to be in it. Pugs will be in it.
All the producers and then all the content people are going to be doing the broadcast, doing the social. We're going to be chasing around with videos.
It's going to be an awesome time. I think it's going to be a very, very fun time, very fun watch.
This is why this office was built for these type of events. So tune in, please, and buy some merch if you want.

And also, Stella Blue Coffee is 20% off as well, including yearly membership.

So you can get 20% off your yearly membership.

So every dollar counts because this is what we do for our business.

I know people are upset.

I know people get mad about Black Friday and Cyber Monday.

We are for profit, and we're trying to keep everyone employed. I know that sucks.
The more you buy, the more you save. What are you trying to do? Make money? This is our job.
We are trying to. Yes.
Yes. Also, Big Cat has very generously offered $300 per member on the winning team.
I've offered $1,000 to the MVP. To the MVP.
Yeah, this is out of our own pocket. I will be crowning the MVP based on just a random, whatever I feel, my eyeball test.
Yeah. $1,000.
I like that. I think people are sensitive to get selfish at the end.
Ooh, I like that. Or maybe I value unselfish play.
Yeah. Can you win the MVP if you don't compete because you can't reach your toes? Actually, yes.
I'm going to say Max is eligible depending on his performance, not on the court, but just the stuff you do often. I can't reach my toes.
Memes didn't want me to say that. I can't reach my toes.
Okay. Then you probably should have cut your nails.
Jake. My who's back is sportsmanship.
Oh, last week in San Antonio, Greg Popovich during Kawhi Leonard's free throws. Yeah.
He hopped on the mic and he told the fans to stop booing. This was bad.
It was such a loser move. He said, that's not who we are.
It was, it was. Sportsmanship at his finest.
It was the most Coach K move I've ever seen from somebody who's not Coach K. It was such a loser move.
I hated it so much. And I don't hate Pop, but I think I might have to start hating Pop.
It was bad. It was really bad.
It was so bad. If I was a Spurs fan, I would have booed Pop telling me to stop booing.
I know the boos intensified. Good, good, good.
Good sports. It was in the middle the middle of the two free throws.
Good. Yeah, it was a crazy story.
Also, what if Pop was just trying to psych Kawhi out by getting on the mic and be like, hey, I know all of you guys hate Kawhi because of the way that he left, and he was kind of a jerk to you at the end, and I get why you're booing him and you all hate him, but please stop. That's actually almost – that's worse sportsmanship than booing him, I would say.
Yeah, I'd agree. Maybe it's reverse sportsmanship.
I'd agree. All right, good show.
We're going to talk all the college football on Wednesday. We have Kirk Herbstreet on, which will be great, and we have a lot to get to because it was a hell of a Saturday for college football.
Let's finish with numbers. Max, is there a chance maybe this is all karma for you being a loser? Eight.
Yeah. Fifteen.
Oh, there is. Okay, so you admit.
I'm down bad. Yeah, you admit.
All right. 71.
Three. 20.
What are Evan and Shane? Shane. Ten for Shane.
What was everyone's number? What's Evan? Usually. I'm 20.
Eight. What was your number? 15.
Ooh, new one. 52.
Some guy in San Diego. San Diego? That was you and my parents who just came up to the table.
It was like, 15. Oh, Jake! 18? Jake's in! Let's go! Here you go, Jake.
18. Let's go.
Way to go, Jake. Me and you, Jakey.
Hey, Hank. You know, a lot of people are winning this lotto machine.
Right. Yeah.
It's interesting. Oh, is it? Yeah, Jake, get ready for Max to figure out some way to discredit you.
Let's go. Congrats, Jake.
Thank you. Huge.
I'm happy for you, Jake. No, you're not.
No, you're not. You're a loser.
You're a loser. You're going to cry, baby, and you're going to find a way to make this illegitimate.
I'm happy for Jake. I'm super happy.
I am happy for Jake. I was the first one to say I was happy for Jake.
But you are also going to be the first one to pull up footage and be like, this is illegal. Well, he doesn't press the button, so there's no way.
But you're going to find a way. Did he wink at me? There's no way.
Did he wink at me? I think he winked. I saw Jake make an motion, and that's when I hit the button.
Wrong. That fact.
Watch it back. It's a scorigami for the lottery machine, too.
Yeah, good job, Jake. It's never been drawn yet.
What a day. What a day.
Let's go. Huge.
On the board. Max, hope your foot gets worse.
Love you guys. It's a mean.
That's mean. We love all the pain.
Needless to say. I want a sentence.
But we're still let away. Still learning the life is okay.
Say unto me. At least we're better to be safe and sorry.
Say unto me. At least we're better to be safe and sorry We can come We can come We can come We can come We can come We can come We can come That will save everything Good night to you.
