Speaker 1 Welcome to part of my take.
Speaker 32 Today is Monday, November 6th,
Speaker 34 week
Speaker 35 9.
Speaker 38 We start week 8.
Speaker 40 9.
Speaker 10 Wait, it's not week 8?
Speaker 35 9.
Speaker 41 Are you saying 9 or 9?
Speaker 42 9.
Speaker 11 Okay, in week 9, we had a rematch of World War II where U.S.
Speaker 45 invaded Germany and they brought their fat man and little boy with Andy Reid and Mike McDaniels.
Speaker 46 Kansas City came out to a dominating lead and had the Dolphins surrounded, but left them off the hook like Dunkirk in the second half.
Speaker 47 Raheem Spicy Brown Mostert had the Chiefs in a pretzel, one of those huge German ones that rocks, but it was too little, too late, as the quarterback left a third and 10 throws short, and the Chiefs escaped the bunker with a win.
Speaker 37 Chiefs 21, Dolphins 14.
Speaker 52 Back to America, real America, Houston, Texas, where the Stroud Boys had an uprising while Tampa Bay tried to stop the count late in the fourth.
Speaker 52 Tank, for whom the Dell tolls, it tolls for thee, Tampa, found his hemming way into the end zone twice.
Speaker 52 Houston was cooking up a storm on their food network as Dalton Brown combined for 16 catches and 283 yards, leaving Todd on the toilet bowls. Texans, 39.
Speaker 51 The Bucs, 37.
Speaker 55 Tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick.
Speaker 50 In Atlanta, where the Vikings season had a Jaron Hall pass after they were forced to start the rookie.
Speaker 58 But
Speaker 47 oh my god, that's stone cold Josh Dobbs music. As God is my witness, Josh Dobbs is back.
Speaker 50 Josh Calvin and Dobbs in relief had the Falcons defense looking like paper tigers and he put defenders in the funny papers time and time again.
Speaker 50 Januna Matada said there will be no worries for the rest of your days if you own Kyle Pitts and Fantasy after he scored a long touchdown to put the Falcons up.
Speaker 38 But the Falcons forgot about Brandon Powell, Powell, Powell Wheels as he activated his little electronic motor for the winning score.
Speaker 50 Vikings 31, Falcons 28.
Speaker 53 Huh? Huh?
Speaker 37 Josh Todds is a quarterback after three games? Josh Stobbs.
Speaker 36 Tell me.
Speaker 52 Up to Baltimore, where Michael Keaton Mitchell was looking dope and sick as he hit the multiplicity button on yards.
Speaker 52 The Seahawks were on a hot streak, but seemed to have run out of luck at the Kagino, busting out broke in another game.
Speaker 52 Odell Beckham blew out the candles for his birthday and then celebrated by blowing out the back of the Seahawks as he forced it into their end zone.
Speaker 52 Michael Jackson, Smith, and Jigba will be moonwalking back to Seattle as the Seahawks are bad.
Speaker 40 They're bad. And they really, really know it.
Speaker 51 They're bad.
Speaker 52 Ravens 37. The Seahawks 3.
Speaker 50 Out in the desert where it was Tony P and L V showing off positive masculinity as Antonio Pierce felt and touched his players before the game.
Speaker 24 The Giants aren't good, but they have some fellas like Tommy Two Times DeVito.
Speaker 57 We call him Tommy Two times because he throws interceptions two times.
Speaker 28 Here's a pick. Here's a pick.
Speaker 38 Josh Jacob Gyllenhall night crawled his way to a two scores as the Raiders broke the back of the Giants season.
Speaker 36 The Raiders.
Speaker 23 30 Giants 6. The New York football guys.
Speaker 58 And the Las Vegas
Speaker 36 Raiders.
Speaker 52 We go up to Green Bay where Sean Timothy McVay's plans blew up in his face and Puka Necklace Nakua looked like a shell of himself.
Speaker 52 Andrews Hot Carlson took a dump all over the Rams' face kicking for two fogo and Rams fans watching their backup play felt like they were ripping balls on Heikedelix watching Brett fumble snaps and throw picks.
Speaker 52 Return of the Matt LaFleur is back up in the game playing with his favorite RB, Aaron Jones again, as the Packers beat the Rams 20-3.
Speaker 66 Over to New England. Joe Sly, the science guy, started off the scoring with a first quarter field going, Phil, Phil, Phil, Phil, Bill.
Speaker 66 Belichick had no answer for Brian Jackie Robinson, who broke the goal line barrier in the second quarter for seven. Hunter Henry Lockwood was flying high after scoring this weekend.
Speaker 66 And reminded that Giant Stevenson was asking the crowd, does anybody want to beat it? After rushing in for a touchdown of his own.
Speaker 66 Late in the quarter, Mac Jones was picked off by Jartavius Martin Gehricks, who was high on life after stealing a win now he can say officially just like the motherfucker on that plane the lighthouse is not real oh washington 20 patriots 17.
Speaker 54 that was incredible boom thanks boom that was the best boomer ever boom thanks boom now i'm teach
Speaker 52 over to philadelphia where the cowboys play in a house of pain duck it up duck it in let me begin i came to win step out of bounds that's a sin as dak did his best impression of Jerry Jones hitting the white lines a little too early as he stepped out on a costly two-point conversion.
Speaker 52 Jalen hearts so good.
Speaker 52 You know your knee don't feel like it should. Jalen, hearts so good.
Speaker 9 Played a heroic second half, but it was the Eagles' defense that played like cougars tackling a lamb to finish the game.
Speaker 52 The Eagles 28, the Cowboys 23.
Speaker 68 Standing on a corner, Jamie Swinson down in Nola. Such a fine sight to see.
Speaker 68 It tastes some hell, my lord, running for a score and throwing for a score, running Chicago's D.
Speaker 36 Come on, pageant, get off the pavement.
Speaker 68 Justin's coming back, and you haven't gotten paid
Speaker 68 yet.
Speaker 50 Saints go marching 24-17.
Speaker 13 and that is week 9, fast as two minutes.
Speaker 10 Hey, it's PFT here, reminding you that Boarshead makes game day entertaining elevated and effortless.
Speaker 10 Whether you order catering platters ahead from your local Boarshead retailer, or you create your own spread at home with Boarshead premium deli meats and cheeses, you are sure to impress your guests.
Speaker 10 My favorites like oven gold turkey or blazing buffalo-style chicken, paired with their classic Vermont cheddar or creamy Munster cheese, are sure to score big and help me elevate my entertainment every time, whether it's for a tailgate or a home gating celebration.
Speaker 10 Seriously, guys, it's a game-changing flavor for every gathering. Boarshead, committed to craft since 1905.
Speaker 70 Okay,
Speaker 6 that was a great boomer's Hank.
Speaker 71 Maybe Boomer of the Year.
Speaker 21 People are saying.
Speaker 36 I'm honored.
Speaker 72 Did you work on that?
Speaker 12 You came all on your own.
Speaker 73 That's all me. I love you.
Speaker 10 It was a pure Henry.
Speaker 74 Yes. So.
Speaker 13 Week nine in the books.
Speaker 20 We're going to talk about Bengals bills at the end because we are in the middle of the fourth quarter right now.
Speaker 77 Looks like the Bengals are going to win after a very costly Dalton Kincaid fumble.
Speaker 1 But let's get into week nine.
Speaker 61 Let's get into week nine.
Speaker 19 I feel like we really found out who the absolute worst teams in the league are this week.
Speaker 14 And
Speaker 72 also, more questions at the top than I had going into it, I feel like.
Speaker 43 I disagree.
Speaker 82 Oh, okay.
Speaker 10 I think we found out who the best teams are.
Speaker 63 We do have, yeah, there's a couple of very, very good teams.
Speaker 65 I'm more talking.
Speaker 32 Yeah, I'm more talking Cowboys, Eagles. I'm still very confused how that went.
Speaker 20 But let's get into the games.
Speaker 76 Let's start with the game in Germany.
Speaker 1 Dolphins 21, or sorry, Chiefs 21, Dolphins, 14.
Speaker 81 The Miami Dolphins are officially F-R-A-U-D-S frauds. They're not real.
Speaker 9 They're not real.
Speaker 10 They're going to continue. They've got some very winnable games coming up.
Speaker 10 And then the times where they play against the good teams, I think we're going to see more of the same.
Speaker 33 Yeah, when they play Kennesaw State in two weeks, they'll probably put up 100.
Speaker 87 And then they got to play Alabama, and it's not going to look good.
Speaker 42 So, the Dolphins
Speaker 15 are now versus teams with a losing record, 5-0
Speaker 42 with a combined score 234 to 125.
Speaker 70 So, almost doubling up the score.
Speaker 43 The Dolphins versus teams with a winning record are 0-3,
Speaker 43 100 for their opponent, 51 for them.
Speaker 10 When they play a good defense, they kind of turtle a little bit. And I think the Chiefs are a really good defense.
Speaker 3 I think the Chiefs are a top five defense, which is crazy to say, but I think that that's the scariest part about the Chiefs is that their offense still doesn't look like Peak Mahomes because I think in the second half they went completely to sleep.
Speaker 22 I think they have 46 yards total in the second half,
Speaker 88 but their defense is very much legit, held two to under 200 yards,
Speaker 18 held the Dolphins scoreless in the first half, even after all the sleep.
Speaker 94 Nothing has made, or the travel, nothing has made me more mad at myself than putting that much weight behind the travel because I was front and center on the Dolphins or Frauds and like hammer them against hammer against them when they play any good team.
Speaker 6 And the travel, the fact the Chiefs went on Thursday, got me off that set.
Speaker 10 Sent me up, too. Andy Reid.
Speaker 90 We should have made so much money betting the Chiefs.
Speaker 10
Andy Reid beat time this weekend. He's so good of a coach that he beat time.
Andy Reid versus seconds is a battle for the ages, and he came out on top again.
Speaker 10 It was really two halves, though. First half, you had Tyreek Hill and his fumble that was returned for the touchdown.
Speaker 97 That was the first half.
Speaker 10
That was the play of the game where it's, I mean, Tyreek, former chief, talking a lot of shit going into this game, gets stripped, loses the ball. They return it.
They rugby it back for a touchdown.
Speaker 10 And at that point, it felt like the Chiefs were going to just dominate and put him away like, you know, 40 to 40 to 7, 40 to 14, something like that.
Speaker 10 And then the second half, the Chiefs looked like they were the ones that were asleep.
Speaker 78 The Dolphins defense played well.
Speaker 56 And I think there's, if you are a Dolphins fan, today's not a great day because this was, you need to beat one good team to feel like you are a true Super Bowl contender.
Speaker 7 Because guess what?
Speaker 18 When you get to the playoffs, all you do is play good teams.
Speaker 10 It doesn't matter who you play in the playoffs.
Speaker 10 If you're a Dolphins fan, you are going to be officially nervous as shit
Speaker 10 for that first game. Right.
Speaker 44 But the Dolphins defense did, like, they looked good in the second half.
Speaker 20 The Chiefs did basically nothing in the second half, but it's the fact that they just, whenever the Dolphins, that high-flying, greatest show on surf is what they're calling it, goes up against a decent defense.
Speaker 56 It gets stymied and looks completely different.
Speaker 10 Yeah, and I love watching Isaiah Pacheco run with the ball, where he looks like he's just splashing through puddles, just stopping every single time.
Speaker 10 Very, very, very, very much like a vertical runner to the point where I guarantee you, his high school football coach, or definitely Greg Sciano, at one point, is like, why are you running so scared out there?
Speaker 10
Yeah, you know, why are you so upright? Get your head down, hit somebody. But it's fun to watch him play.
And the Chiefs are for real, for real. Yeah,
Speaker 10 we can definitely say that their defense is good enough to keep them close in any sort of game, and then you have Patrick Mahomes as your quarterback.
Speaker 74 They're almost not fair.
Speaker 101 What's going to happen is the Chiefs' defense is so good this year that they are going to keep them at the top of the AFC for just long enough for Patrick Mahomes to figure it out with his new receivers.
Speaker 21 That's what's going to happen.
Speaker 17 We're going to get to late December, and it's going to be like, ooh, Rashi Rice and Patrick Mahomes are figuring it out together.
Speaker 43 Ooh, Kadarius Toney isn't the worst player in the world anymore.
Speaker 103 Like,
Speaker 32 that story, if we could predict a story, Aaron Andrews sitting down with Patrick Mahomes late December being like, how did you guys all get on the same page?
Speaker 92 You know what it is?
Speaker 96 It's going to be like, fuck, they're doing it again.
Speaker 10 It's always video games. Yeah.
Speaker 23 You know, I just had an ass over my house where we just played video games.
Speaker 40 It's still something like that.
Speaker 34 I have a question.
Speaker 3 That was the Tua, and who was it on the third and 10?
Speaker 21 Was that Waddle or was that?
Speaker 10 Tyreek? I'm not sure who that was. Was it a pass that went short?
Speaker 44 That was just miscommunication, right?
Speaker 7 That wasn't Tua trying to throw as hard as he can.
Speaker 10 I don't think that was possibly Tua trying to hit him in strike.
Speaker 40 Okay, good, good, good, good.
Speaker 10
I'm going to apologize for Tua. I think it was an option route.
I'm going to make an excuse
Speaker 10 and say that he was not trying to lead him on that pass because if he did,
Speaker 10 Tommy DeVito would have thrown that ball better.
Speaker 7 It was the Tebow-like pass, you know, the famous one in the wind in a Broncos practice.
Speaker 10 It was a bad pass.
Speaker 19 So, yeah,
Speaker 99 the Tua MVP obviously takes a ding.
Speaker 10 Probably had taken a ding a couple weeks ago against the Eagles, but the Dolphins, they just have to beat a good team they have to and and until that happens i i don't think it's unfair to be like yeah they're they're a decent team but a super bowl contender i don't think so and now who do they got who's their next you know what they have a lot of tests home against the raiders after the buy yeah they they might fraud themselves into actually becoming like a little bit of an angry team because everyone now is going to be saying that they're frauds and they got a lot of bulletin boards to look at like if if you're the dolphins you don't it now is not the time where you want to listen to what the media is saying about you after loss.
Speaker 10 You actually should, though, because every morning show in America is going to be like, they're frauds, they're fraudulent, they can't beat a good team.
Speaker 10 And those people saying that are right, by the way.
Speaker 10 But the only way you can get yourself out of this fraud hole is by listening to it and getting pissed off enough at it that you commit yourself to no longer being a fraud.
Speaker 76 And look, I actually want to spin it positively for the Dolphins because I am a member of Tuanon, and I don't, there's no reason for, like, there's no ill will I have against the Dolphins.
Speaker 20 I would like them to be a really good team that can beat other really good teams because I think the league would be more fun for it.
Speaker 15 So let's do positives that I have going forward.
Speaker 32 I think your defense is getting better, healthier.
Speaker 85 A-Chain will come back eventually.
Speaker 10 You're going to get faster.
Speaker 90 You're going to get faster.
Speaker 80 Your schedule is not that tough.
Speaker 20 So, like, the idea that this is maybe going to slip like it did last year, which was more because of injury with Tatua, I don't think that's going to happen.
Speaker 56 Like, I think the dolls, I can confidently say the Dolphins are going to be in the playoffs.
Speaker 72 I'm not worried that much.
Speaker 3 But yeah, just figure out a way to beat a really good team.
Speaker 100 Mike McDaniels, go into your spreadsheets, cook something up.
Speaker 24 Hit that vape.
Speaker 82 Figure it out. Try a new blend.
Speaker 15 So I have one question coming out of this game.
Speaker 22 Is Mike McDaniels too cute?
Speaker 10 He does get a little cute with some hiding behind some other coaches trying to avoid the cameras.
Speaker 42 The press conferences, the sunglasses.
Speaker 67 Does he need to, does Mike McDaniels maybe need to get like a neck tat, maybe a maybe a teardrop tat
Speaker 20 and be like, I'm going to be a hard, hardcore coach and not the cute coach that everyone's falling in love with?
Speaker 12 Because if you can't beat the good teams, the too cute thing does, it starts.
Speaker 10 And he does need to bring back the double hoop earrings.
Speaker 102 That would be a good start, doesn't he?
Speaker 10 Like, that was a good look for him when he was a ball boy in Denver. Like, you don't fuck with that guy.
Speaker 56 Just do something, Mike McDaniel, to not be as cute as you have been because you're so fucking cute.
Speaker 88 I want to put you in my back pocket.
Speaker 15 You're so cute.
Speaker 10 Mike McDaniel, he goes
Speaker 10 looking like a weed smoker to a weed dealer if he puts the earrings back in.
Speaker 5 Maybe gets like a white Jeddah.
Speaker 55 Yeah.
Speaker 10
The white Jeddah is not that fearsome. That's a good idea.
Well, that's like
Speaker 86 a high school, like,
Speaker 7 you got enough money dealing weed that you can lease a white Jeddah.
Speaker 10 Maybe like a Honda Civic SI with like manual, put some bucket seats, some racing seats in there, put a huge fucking spoiler on the back of it. Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 33 Just something to heart.
Speaker 85 Maybe Mike McDaniel just needs to beat someone up.
Speaker 10 So I actually think that they might be in a better place if they had lost last week to the Patriots, if they were on a three-game losing streak.
Speaker 10 Because Mike McDaniel has said, like, I can't, when I got to the NFL as a head coach, I couldn't wait for my first three-game losing streak because that's when you know that you have to get the guys together.
Speaker 10
He had it last year. He rallied them together.
This is like win-los, win-los. They're last four.
If you had a losing streak, then you circle the wagons.
Speaker 78 So Mike McDaniel has not started coaching yet.
Speaker 10
Not yet. Not till he loses three in a row.
Yeah. And I'm looking at the schedule right now.
They're not going to lose. Well, no, they might.
Speaker 10 They might lose to the Cowboys, Ravens, and Bills to close out the season. And the Jets.
Speaker 18 I still think the Jets are going to be a tough game for them on Black Friday.
Speaker 10
Well, that would be great if they lost New York. If they lost to the Jets, the Cowboys, and the Ravens, then they circle the wagons, play the Bills.
Yeah. Week 17 or 18, I guess.
Snowballs.
Speaker 40 Snowballs.
Speaker 26 Cold.
Speaker 10 Well, no, that's at home. So
Speaker 9 moderate, rainy.
Speaker 10 Miami.
Speaker 18 Yeah, that's yeah, okay, yeah.
Speaker 108 Not cold at all. Humid.
Speaker 98 Not cold at all.
Speaker 106 Okay, let's play a fun game before we get to the next game called
Speaker 18 Where is the next Chiefs loss going to happen and how much will people freak out about it?
Speaker 3 Because I think we're in agreement that the Chiefs, and we'll get to the Ravens because the Ravens have been playing incredible football, but the Chiefs are the best team in the AFC.
Speaker 6 And what they basically do is they'll just find a couple losses here and there where everyone can be like, what's wrong with the Chiefs?
Speaker 10 We did it last week when they,
Speaker 5 we actually were pretty good where we're like, nothing's wrong with the Chiefs.
Speaker 15 They're fine.
Speaker 69 So
Speaker 19 what's the next Chiefs loss that people will be like, oh, no, are the Chiefs in trouble?
Speaker 10
I think they might lose to the Bills in Buffalo December 10th. Okay.
That's going to be like the Bills Super Bowl. That's going to be a must-win for the Bills at that point.
Okay.
Speaker 10
So they're going to bring their best game. And I know Chiefs fans out there will get very pissed off to hear that because they fucking hate the Buffalo Bills.
Yeah.
Speaker 10 And they get disgusted when anybody mentions the Bills in the same breath as the Chiefs. But that's going to be a very hard game to play.
Speaker 10 I could see them losing to the Packers in a fluky game.
Speaker 36 No.
Speaker 18 Yeah, just in a weird in Lambo.
Speaker 43 Maybe it's cold.
Speaker 18 Something stupid happens.
Speaker 15 Patrick Mahomes gets COVID again.
Speaker 10 Maybe the Raiders, if the Raiders get another interim head coach.
Speaker 24 Yeah.
Speaker 63 I don't know. There's going to be,
Speaker 32 you know what's going to happen.
Speaker 20 The Chiefs will lose one more inexplicable type game, and everyone will say, oh, no, Bears.
Speaker 79 Are the Chiefs have some problems?
Speaker 17 Can the Chiefs be had?
Speaker 91 No, the Chiefs will probably win the Super Bowl.
Speaker 10 So Andy Reid did have the quote of the week, though, and this was before the game.
Speaker 10 And the German press was just talking to him about football, what it means to America, what it means to him, what he's been through.
Speaker 10
And Andy said, if we could just figure out how to get all the countries to play football, we wouldn't have war. Yeah.
Which makes sense. Just
Speaker 10
solve this on the field. Step out on the gridiron like a man instead of lobbing missiles at people.
Like, let's just go out there. Let's just play some ball.
Speaker 86 This is like the old, remember when we learned it?
Speaker 57 McDonald's. Yeah, the McDonald's.
Speaker 39 It's not true. Yeah,
Speaker 10 no two countries that have McDonald's have ever fought a war against each other.
Speaker 71 That was the greatest lie that we learned as kids.
Speaker 10 No, and it does not make sense.
Speaker 10
It's factually inaccurate. Although, the McDonald's in Iraq, they were actually called Matt, I think they were like McDonald or something like that.
They were like fake McDonald's.
Speaker 10
But you couldn't even say that about football, American football either, because countries that have American football have actually fought a war against each other. Right.
America. Right.
Speaker 10
In the 1800s. It was kind of a big deal.
Yes. But I kind of agree with Andy.
Like, let's just...
Speaker 10 I don't necessarily agree that it would solve world peace, but it would make for some great rivalry games.
Speaker 97 I would say it would solve world peace
Speaker 20 for 18 Sundays a year.
Speaker 103 Well, like, that's things.
Speaker 77 You can't fight a war on an NFL Sunday.
Speaker 10 It's like saying, yeah,
Speaker 10 football is the great peacemaker. You never see Raiders fans fighting against Chiefs fans.
Speaker 102 Yeah. Right?
Speaker 10 Because we're all here to watch football today.
Speaker 71 No one's ever seen an Eagles fan or a Chargers fan.
Speaker 10 If anything, it would start more wars, I think.
Speaker 54 Yeah.
Speaker 5 But they would just be fought with like bottles.
Speaker 87 Bottles, flares, and dudes that don't have the higher ground that think that they can just punch up against like 16 of
Speaker 102 the team they're playing against.
Speaker 10 Just guys wearing throwback jerseys from like the year 1975 that they bought online from like an illegal sweatshop in China.
Speaker 20 Ditch the camouflage and grab your finest pair of jean shorts.
Speaker 100 We're enlisting in the army.
Speaker 10 Can you imagine if the United States military had dudes wearing the Ravens camo shorts just running up hills, charging and fighting? Never lose.
Speaker 26 Wouldn't fuck with them.
Speaker 54 Never lose.
Speaker 106 Never lose.
Speaker 56 All right, so yeah,
Speaker 70 the Dolphins are frauds.
Speaker 10 They're frauds. Chiefs are very good.
Speaker 1 This is what it is.
Speaker 10 Chiefs are still very, very good.
Speaker 40 Yeah.
Speaker 111 Yeah.
Speaker 71 Chiefs are very, very, very, very good.
Speaker 7 And I wish, I really wish that the Chiefs had just gone on Tuesday because I would have won
Speaker 15 a lot more money and my day would have started off in a lot better place.
Speaker 10 I would not have bet on the Dolphins at all if there wasn't such a huge difference of travel.
Speaker 10 But I guess we learned that we're, once we find something and we latch on to it, we'll just get obsessed with that thing until we're proven proven wrong.
Speaker 20 The amount of times I think I've figured it out,
Speaker 10 it's incredible. I still think it was the right bet.
Speaker 111 Yeah, no, but yeah.
Speaker 20 Okay, next up, maybe the best team in football right now.
Speaker 69 Ravens, 37, Seahawks, three.
Speaker 18 This was an ass kicking that was, it was a biblical ass kicking. It was not even like 37-3, yes, you obviously see that score and you're like, ass kicking.
Speaker 88 But then you look at the numbers and it was insane.
Speaker 69 The Ravens had 29 first downs to the Seahawks six.
Speaker 1 The Ravens had 515 yards to the Seahawks 151.
Speaker 13 The Ravens had 298 rushing yards.
Speaker 85 So the Ravens almost had double the amount of
Speaker 18 just rushing yards than the Seahawks total yards.
Speaker 103 It was never close.
Speaker 69 It was an ass kicking through and through.
Speaker 3 And even kind of the reverse of what we were talking about with the Dolphins, the Ravens have now played three teams who are above 500.
Speaker 91 One of them was the Browns when I think Deshaun was out.
Speaker 19 Is that right?
Speaker 56 I believe, or maybe he got injured in that game.
Speaker 10 Yeah, I forget if he played that or not.
Speaker 3 So the scores of the Ravens games against teams over 500, 28 to 3 against Cleveland, 38 to 6 against Detroit, 37 to 3 against Seattle.
Speaker 10 Yeah, two teams that are leading the divisions or were leading their divisions, Seahawks and Lions, combined score of 75 to 9 against those two teams.
Speaker 10 The Ravens had four sacks today. That leads the league.
Speaker 25 They also had pressure on 54.5% of the drop backs.
Speaker 10
That's crazy. It's insane.
Their defensive back, Geno Stone, he got his sixth interception of the year.
Speaker 44 Gino to Gino.
Speaker 21 Probably first time ever.
Speaker 10
Probably, I would imagine. That's the first time, or that he's still leading the league right now.
And they got another weapon at running back. Yeah.
Speaker 10
So it seems like whoever the Ravens put in at running back is going to be great. Keaton Mitchell was the guy today.
From ECU. From ECU.
He's a pirate. He had nine carries, 138 yards.
Speaker 10
That's a 15.3 average per carry. He had a touchdown.
Fun fact about Keaton Mitchell. He's from ECU, undrafted, right? He was projected to go like middle of the draft.
He fell out for some reason.
Speaker 10 I think he was like a second-team All-American in college.
Speaker 10 So he was undrafted Ravens free agent. His dad was also an undrafted free agent, signed by who? The Baltimore Ravens.
Speaker 102 That would have been funny if you were like the San Diego Chargers.
Speaker 10 He blocked a kick in the playoffs against the Titans
Speaker 10
and returned it for a touchdown. That was the winning score as the Ravens went on to win their Super Bowl.
Wow.
Speaker 43 That's the first one.
Speaker 10 Yeah, so that makes you feel very, very old to know that his son now is an undrafted free agent that's lighting up the Seahawks in the NFL.
Speaker 67 And it just is crazy the Ravens have figured out their running game because that was a lot of the talk once
Speaker 25 Dobbins went down.
Speaker 18 It's like, okay,
Speaker 44 they still probably need someone here because they do like to run the football.
Speaker 18 And now they get this kid, Keaton Mitchell, out of nowhere, who's like the perfect complimentary piece to Gus Edwards, who is clearly the goal line back.
Speaker 13 And yeah, the Ravens, I mean, their defense, I didn't know, hand up, I'm just going to say it.
Speaker 70 I thought Kyle Van Noy retired.
Speaker 40 Oh, you did? Yeah.
Speaker 46 Well, he was, I don't think, I think he signed recently with the Ravens.
Speaker 10 I knew that he was around at least for a few weeks.
Speaker 46 But I don't think he started the season with the Ravens.
Speaker 10 Kyle Van Noyne, we'll look him up.
Speaker 91 He had sacks on back-to-back plays.
Speaker 10 How old do you think Kyle Van Noy is?
Speaker 28 He's young.
Speaker 10
He's only 32. That's crazy.
I did not know that.
Speaker 10 Yeah, that's very Van Noying. He,
Speaker 10 let's see,
Speaker 10 2020.
Speaker 10 Yeah, he's played seven games.
Speaker 20 Okay, so he did play the whole season.
Speaker 114 So maybe I did know that.
Speaker 97 Either way, I was like, wait, Cal Van Noy's on the Ravens?
Speaker 62 Because I thought he was...
Speaker 46 Where was he last year?
Speaker 41 Was he on the Lions? No.
Speaker 10 Was he back on the Patriots? He was on the Chargers.
Speaker 90 Chargers, that's right. Chargers.
Speaker 88 That's where I got it.
Speaker 32 He got lost in my mind when we went to the Chargers.
Speaker 10
You know what it is about Cal Van Noy? I think he streams so much that you think he's retired. That you're like, oh, this guy's not playing.
That's proportional.
Speaker 23 And he tweets a lot.
Speaker 10
Yeah, yeah. He tweets a lot.
He's too online to be playing still. But no, he's playing full schedule.
Speaker 10 I would just like to admit, right now, the Baltimore Ravens, I think they are the best team in the NFL.
Speaker 10 I think the Ravens.
Speaker 102 I think they have them. They're my Super Bowl picks.
Speaker 10 I think the Ravens are the most complete team.
Speaker 31 He did sign in late September.
Speaker 82 A little vindication.
Speaker 10 He didn't start the season.
Speaker 39 Yeah, he didn't start the season.
Speaker 10 But the way that the Ravens play against good teams, they are, I think they're the best team in the league.
Speaker 4 They still have to figure out, like, it doesn't feel like their offense is fully clicking.
Speaker 21 Like, Lamar, he was good today, but he wasn't like
Speaker 23 light.
Speaker 63 I thought he was pretty good. No, I know.
Speaker 10
He didn't hit throw any touchdown points. The stat sheet doesn't really tell how good Lamar was today, but he just got a little dinged up.
He was 21 for 26, so that's pretty good.
Speaker 35 No, he was good. I'm just saying.
Speaker 10 He didn't throw deep that much.
Speaker 90 Yeah, it wasn't like what was it?
Speaker 115 Oh, it wasn't the game against the Seahawks or the Lions.
Speaker 10 When a quarterback throws for 80 yards to their tight end and he's their number one receiver, then you lose track of how good he was because he also completed nine passes to Mark Andrews.
Speaker 81 Listen,
Speaker 25 I've been on the Ravens since before the season started.
Speaker 72 I have them 18-1.
Speaker 18 I thought the Ravens have everything.
Speaker 72 Their defense is nasty.
Speaker 10 Yeah, the Ravens are extremely good.
Speaker 10 Seahawks, I don't know what we can take away from this because we saw the Lions get their ass kicked by the Ravens, and it turns out the Lions are still pretty good.
Speaker 10 So I don't know that I'm ready to bury the Seahawks yet, but I am.
Speaker 90 You are going to bury him?
Speaker 97 I'm not going to bury the Seahawks.
Speaker 108 I'm done with Geno.
Speaker 19 Yeah. I've had enough Gino.
Speaker 90 I think I'm good with Gino.
Speaker 70 Like, I know that people will tell me I'm wrong because the tape says something different.
Speaker 56 I just feel like Gino has last year, he had a very good year, and now he's kind of gone back to Geno, which is okay,
Speaker 19 but like.
Speaker 67 I never really feel a ton of trust in Geno.
Speaker 49 I'm never like, man, Geno's going to really go out there and win this game.
Speaker 10
He might bounce back. Gino always bounces back.
You're writing him off.
Speaker 40 I am writing him off.
Speaker 65 I'm just
Speaker 19 kind of, I'm good with it.
Speaker 63 Like, I think he's okay.
Speaker 91 I'm not saying he's bad.
Speaker 78 I just, I don't, I will never feel
Speaker 56 trust in Geno to be like, you can go win this big, big game.
Speaker 36 Right.
Speaker 10 I agree with that, but I don't, I'm not ready to bury them. I still think that they could
Speaker 10
in the NFC, they're probably going to make the playoffs. Yeah, yeah.
And this is a year where I think a lot of people were writing the Seahawks Seahawks off. Like, oh, they're going to roll with Geno?
Speaker 10 Okay, we'll see how that far that gets you. I think that this is, they're a perfectly fine team.
Speaker 4 I think it really comes down to, like, Geno doesn't, whenever there's a lot of pressure, and yeah, obviously you can say this for every quarterback, but whenever there's a lot of pressure, it just feels like Geno doesn't have any solutions.
Speaker 14 You know what I mean?
Speaker 44 Like, it doesn't feel like there's, it's just a problem that there is no way out of.
Speaker 10 And at the end of the day, he's always going to be the guy that got his jaw broke by his teammate. Yeah.
Speaker 81 Maybe I'm being mean.
Speaker 116 I do think the Seahawks are a very talented team, and I am not going to just say one game means that you suck all of a sudden.
Speaker 28 But yeah, I think I'm just good with Gino.
Speaker 61 I think I'm good with Gino.
Speaker 74 People telling me that Gino's like somehow way, way different than he was.
Speaker 10 I think Gino's like a 20 to
Speaker 10 15 caliber NFL quarterback.
Speaker 45 I think he's just the exact Gino where it's like, yeah, he's got a lot of better players around him now, and
Speaker 44 there's games where he can look great.
Speaker 86 But at the end of the day,
Speaker 41 would you trust your life with Geno Smith?
Speaker 10 I would not trust my life with Limmer.
Speaker 41 I would not trust my life with Geno Smith.
Speaker 10
I would trust it with Lamar. I would trust it with Lamar.
On certain occasions.
Speaker 10 Until you get to the playoffs and a team tries to do some weird scheme. Was it the Chargers? Was it Anthony Lynn?
Speaker 9 What quarterbacks?
Speaker 10 You put like nine defensive backs out there?
Speaker 90 Yeah, what quarterbacks would you trust your life with?
Speaker 98 I think it's Patrick Mahomes.
Speaker 90 It might be Jalen Hurts.
Speaker 18 I think Joe Burrow. And Joe Burrow.
Speaker 39 I think that might be it.
Speaker 26 Life.
Speaker 36 Yeah.
Speaker 84 Like you put your life online for it.
Speaker 10 I would with those three guys for sure.
Speaker 86 I think those are the three guys that I would only.
Speaker 40 Yeah.
Speaker 10
Not Dak. Definitely not Dak.
I just want to say not Dak for the record.
Speaker 90 Kirk Cousins before he got hurt.
Speaker 40 Yeah. As weird as it sounds.
Speaker 44 Maybe Josh Dobbs in relief only.
Speaker 10 Yeah.
Speaker 90 Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 10 It's a very, very short list.
Speaker 9 But yeah, no, Gino's not that list.
Speaker 44 I'm wondering if what Seahawks fans will say about that because, again, I do think they're a good team.
Speaker 90 I think I'm just done with Geno. I think I'm just good with it.
Speaker 86 I'm like, he's good at times, but
Speaker 56 I don't want to be told that Geno is something totally different than what he has always been.
Speaker 10 I might trust CJ Stroud of my life.
Speaker 105 It's getting there.
Speaker 89 It's getting closer.
Speaker 40 It's getting closer.
Speaker 10 Do you think that
Speaker 10 Jim Harbaugh and John Harbaugh share any sort of like advanced scouting tips with each other? Because this looked like a game where the Ravens had all their signals. That's true.
Speaker 10
Well, Connor Stallions is a free job right now. He resigned.
He did not get fired. He resigned.
Speaker 9 He was a side or die guy.
Speaker 10 And also, Jim Harbaugh had no advanced knowledge of what Connor Stallions was doing behind the scenes.
Speaker 15 I believe that Jim Harbaugh shouldn't be punished whatsoever when opposed to the NFL.
Speaker 10 I do love Connor Stallions, though. I love the fact that he's like, you know what? I don't want to be a distraction to the team.
Speaker 10
I didn't do anything. They didn't ask me to do anything.
I'm out. Like the best fall guy you could ever
Speaker 40 ever.
Speaker 48 Ever.
Speaker 48 Okay.
Speaker 20 Next game.
Speaker 41 Vikings Falcons.
Speaker 15 Josh Dobbs.
Speaker 75 What a fucking performance.
Speaker 15 Josh Dobbs.
Speaker 32 I have to apologize because when Josh Dobbs came in, I was like,
Speaker 25 Josh Dobbs isn't good.
Speaker 15 The Cardinals, his last month with the Cardinals was not looking great.
Speaker 13 Josh Dobbs came in, safety, strip sack, and then he was like, wait, I'm Josh Dobbs and I'm going to win this game and played out of his mind after that.
Speaker 54 And the story coming out of it afterwards that Josh Dobbs, so Kevin Seifert from ESPN tweeted that Josh Dobbs didn't take a single rep with offense and practice this week.
Speaker 42 No snaps from his center, Garrett Bradbury, had never thrown passes to any of the guys on the team and didn't know most of their names and said afterward, that's for next week.
Speaker 5 And when Jaron Hall got concussed, they huddled really quick and they went over the five main cadences and that was it.
Speaker 18 And then Josh Dobbs came out and absolutely, like after that bumpy start, torched the Falcons, made big play after big play, finished with 158 yards, two touchdowns, 66 yards rushing, and another touchdown.
Speaker 70 That was awesome.
Speaker 96 That was an awesome game to watch.
Speaker 15 Josh Dobbs, that was awesome.
Speaker 90 Maybe he should just jump from team to team.
Speaker 10
I would love that. Every team should be so lucky to root for one week of Josh Dobbs.
Exactly one week of him. It was crazy.
And then probably nothing more than that. Jordan Addison said that
Speaker 10 Josh Dobbs didn't know the plays because obviously he had only been there for a couple of days. And so he had to ask.
Speaker 10 Josh Dobbs was asking the receivers in the huddle, like, what are you doing on that side of the field so that I know? Yeah. And they would tell him what he was doing.
Speaker 10 He took like two snaps on the sideline from the center.
Speaker 10 Kevin O'Connell was translating calls and mapping out the plays in the middle of the huddle while the play clock was going. It's crazy.
Speaker 10
Josh Dobbs said that this was like learning French and suddenly taking a Spanish test. It's a completely different language.
And Dobbs says that now
Speaker 10 he has proved that he should be a starter in the NFL. I don't know if like full-time starter, but I think like spot starter.
Speaker 107 Yeah, I mean, we did.
Speaker 85 I've watched you for two months with the cards.
Speaker 10 I think what we've learned about Josh Dobbs is he is the best guy that you could ever have to come on the field in the middle of a game or maybe to do like one start for your team.
Speaker 44 He also just seems like the best guy, period.
Speaker 10
Great guy. Yeah.
And he's an astronaut, basically.
Speaker 99 He's an astronaut, basically.
Speaker 3 That fourth and seven.
Speaker 91 So Josh Dobbs played.
Speaker 82 played
Speaker 93 stunk at the start, first two series, played great after that.
Speaker 32 And then the game goes back and forth.
Speaker 6 The Falcons score late.
Speaker 18 Josh Dobbs gets the ball with two minutes, has to go 75 yards, including a fourth and seven with 40 seconds left that he ripped off.
Speaker 32 He basically shrugged off a defender who was at his feet and then ran for 22 yards in a first down, gets the game-winning touchdown with like 20 seconds left.
Speaker 103 It was awesome.
Speaker 32 It was like that was prime witching hour, just great fun to watch.
Speaker 10 Are we going to have the conversation? Like, how come you can't get a Josh Dobbs jersey in the Minnesota Vikings team store?
Speaker 102 Yeah, because the question should be there.
Speaker 10 It's a good question.
Speaker 10 And, like, looking back on it, the Cardinals were probably trying to tell us something like, we don't want to rip off our fans selling his jersey because we're probably going to ship him away in a couple weeks.
Speaker 20 It's also just very funny to think of Josh Dobbs on the plane ride home from Atlanta and being like, man, that was a sick touchdown pass.
Speaker 118 What's your name again?
Speaker 18 Yeah.
Speaker 110 He's like, yeah, I'm Brandon.
Speaker 10
I want to hear the Madden stories about him. I want to hear how he has to learn his teammates' names by playing Madden.
Yeah. That'd be sick.
Speaker 10
We also had, well, Dobbs, he's the only player to go two games for two different teams back-to-back with three touchdowns in each. Yeah.
Pretty impressive.
Speaker 10
Arthur Smith is, I think we can now say that Bijan Robinson is in his doghouse firmly. He fumbled, and then Arthur Smith was like, see, that's why I don't use you.
That's why I don't use you.
Speaker 10 It's like the wired, our tired meme is not paying running backs on their second contract.
Speaker 10 And then the wired meme is Arthur Smith not giving his running back enough carries to begin with to let them even deserve a second big contract.
Speaker 119 Yes.
Speaker 32 Yes.
Speaker 3 It's weird seeing Bijan, he just is never in the red zone packages.
Speaker 2 He's not like, yeah, like, what did you say, six carries in the second half? Yeah. He had six carries in the second half.
Speaker 3 Like, Arthur Smith, we're fans of Arthur Smith.
Speaker 118 We're friends with Arthur Smith.
Speaker 103 His seat is getting a little warm because
Speaker 90 this is a game he should have won when Jaron Hall gets concussed in the first quarter and Josh Dobbs, who doesn't know his teammates' names, comes in.
Speaker 20 You should win that game.
Speaker 18 And on top of that, Taylor Heineke, unfortunately, we're big Taylor Heineke guys, but he kind of had a Desmond Ritter-type game where he did some nice things.
Speaker 100 And then he also had that interception
Speaker 6 that was a terrible interception in the third quarter that gave the Vikings a ton of life.
Speaker 5 So it's like the Falcons feel like they're just moving in like they're treading water right now.
Speaker 10
I'm not going to put this on the offense. I'm not going to put on Taylor Heineke.
The defense.
Speaker 72 Oh, the defense is bad.
Speaker 10 Had some big problems today, and I thought that the defense was good. Like going into this game, I thought the Falcons had like a, I'll say this, a stout defense.
Speaker 18 You can't game plan for Josh Topps.
Speaker 10
You can't. There's no doing it.
Yeah, there's no tape on him with those receivers.
Speaker 69 It was crazy.
Speaker 28 It was crazy to watch.
Speaker 15 He was just, it felt like I was watching a big college football game where the quarterback is, you know, when you watch, we'll talk about it on Wednesday, when you watch a college football game and the quarterback's just better than everyone.
Speaker 4 So, like, if he needs to run for a first down, if he needs to throw for it, like, he just big play after big play.
Speaker 15 That's what it felt like watching Josh Dobbs against the Falcons defense.
Speaker 10 Yeah, it was honestly very, very fun.
Speaker 75 Yeah.
Speaker 10 Shout out Josh Dobbs.
Speaker 44 Also, here's a fun fact.
Speaker 33 If the playoffs started today, the Minnesota Vikings would be the seventh seed.
Speaker 10 Crazy. So now Jordan Addison should keep playing.
Speaker 10 Keep playing.
Speaker 89 Yeah, keep playing.
Speaker 10 We're back on, okay, don't sit out the rest of the year.
Speaker 90 One and four to five and four,
Speaker 95 and
Speaker 100 they have their one and a half games back from the Lions, and they have both their games against the Lions coming up.
Speaker 25 So like
Speaker 13 out of nowhere, the Vikings, with Kirk Cousins playing great football and then getting hurt and being out for the year, and now Josh Dobbs, they still have Nick Mullins coming back as well.
Speaker 10 You got to ride Josh Dobbs.
Speaker 63 Oh, yeah, you know, but I'm just saying.
Speaker 81 I'm saying more
Speaker 110 they have enough quarterbacks that more of them can get injured because it feels like the Vikings have the injury bug to anyone whose name we know.
Speaker 10
Their emergency quarterback today was Cam Akers. Yes.
Cam Akers towards Achilles. Yeah.
So, yeah, there's something going on up there.
Speaker 120 It's the drummer from Spinal Tap.
Speaker 10 Yeah, so if you're a Vikings fan, you have to do that. We need to fire a strength and conditioning coach because we're getting all these Achilles injuries at the quarterback position.
Speaker 90 Yeah, and didn't KJ Osborne get knocked out of the game too?
Speaker 10 Yeah, that was bad.
Speaker 15 Which is like, Josh Jobs did this without Justin Jefferson and KJ Osborne.
Speaker 5 So you'd think the Vikings Vikings are going to get a little healthier.
Speaker 12 And, I mean, what if the Vikings make the playoffs?
Speaker 90 My pinky.
Speaker 10
They could. They could very easily make the playoffs.
Arthur Smith, just a little word of advice here.
Speaker 10 You still have another thing that you can do to try to get yourself off the hot seat, and that's just have one game where you just load up.
Speaker 10 Bijan and Kyle Pitts and Drake London for a fuckload of yards and points.
Speaker 11 And whatever happens, you win.
Speaker 10
Then you can say, like, oh, well, they figured something out on offense. Now their playmakers are getting involved.
Just like force feed them.
Speaker 32 Or Bijan fumbles like three times.
Speaker 59 Everyone's like, oh, the coach is smarter than us.
Speaker 10 Yep. And then everyone blames the GM for using the draft pick on a running back.
Speaker 18 And again, we're not calling for Arthur Smith's job.
Speaker 20 We like Arthur Smith. I'm saying that it's clear that Falcons fans are, people are getting a little antsy, I think.
Speaker 1 Because the NFC South is very winnable.
Speaker 56 And again, you went up against a guy who just met his teammates.
Speaker 20
You should win that game. Yeah.
You should win that game.
Speaker 10 Yeah, I mean, the Falcons are in just as good a position to make the playoffs as the Vikings are, though.
Speaker 60 Yeah, yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 4 Someone has to get that seven seed.
Speaker 10 Yeah, it's going to be someone. It's a game.
Speaker 13 Actually, they aren't because the Vikings are a game ahead and they have the tiebreaker.
Speaker 10 They got the tiebreaker, but
Speaker 10 it's definitely not said and done. Like, the Falcons could very easily make the playoffs.
Speaker 53 Yes, yes.
Speaker 72 Okay.
Speaker 20 Next game.
Speaker 41 Texans 39, Bucs, 37.
Speaker 44 Holy shit, C.J.
Speaker 39 Stroud.
Speaker 5 What a game.
Speaker 7 He is incredible.
Speaker 15 He had 470 yards, five touchdowns.
Speaker 56 He led them on a game-winning drive with 40 seconds left.
Speaker 70 They needed a no, they did they need a touchdown?
Speaker 121 Yeah,
Speaker 10 they needed a touchdown.
Speaker 20 The score of this game, which we'll get to the score of Gami in a minute, but the score of this game got all screwed up because
Speaker 106 Kymie Fairbairn hurt himself in the first half.
Speaker 15 So the Texans spent the second half scoring touchdowns and not getting two-point conversions.
Speaker 40 And then finally, they got to a point where they're like, we should probably kick a a field goal and they got uh dare agunbawale who's a badger came out running back first running back to kick a field goal in like 40 years nailed it
Speaker 10 and so the game was like weird to whenever a kicker gets injured it's so much fun oh i love it the kickoffs yeah everything about it everything becomes weird uh so this game got very weird but cj stroud was out of this world good he was so good we're very rarely right about things on this show but standing up and standing by for the Stroud boys was a great call on our part.
Speaker 10 I think we should be recognized for that.
Speaker 56 We'll get to Bryce Young, but I don't know.
Speaker 7 I don't remember a 1-2 pick being decided this quickly.
Speaker 10
No. No.
I really don't. I can't think of one either.
Speaker 56 I thought Bryce Young would struggle this year and maybe get better, and I guess there's time for that.
Speaker 71 But C.J. Stroud looks, C.J.
Speaker 44 Stroud's a top 10 quarterback.
Speaker 10 And there's some people, I think Ed Werder tweeted out, like, this should put all the naysayers to bed, those who said the Texans screwed up the first round of the draft.
Speaker 10
People were never mad at the Texans for taking C.J. Stroud to begin with.
He was like very clearly the number two quarterback in that draft.
Speaker 10 They were mad because then they moved up again and they took the defensive
Speaker 10
Anderson. And that was a little bit questionable for some people.
But no, C.J. Stroud is awesome.
Those are both rookie records that you mentioned. 470 yards.
That's number one all-time for rookies.
Speaker 10 And five touchdowns. That ties a rookie record.
Speaker 95 It's also the only rookie in NFL history.
Speaker 19 NFL history.
Speaker 21 The only rookie in NFL history to have a game where they go for over 400 yards, four plus TDs, no interceptions.
Speaker 10 That's pretty good.
Speaker 40 That's pretty good.
Speaker 10 He's a gunslinger now because he's not afraid to throw picks.
Speaker 85 I wanted to say,
Speaker 15 I think we touched on this on Friday,
Speaker 106 how the Texans love to run the ball on first down.
Speaker 56 They do it more than any other team.
Speaker 3 Thankfully, they realize the Bucs rush defense actually is good.
Speaker 4 They only ran the ball 17 times today.
Speaker 1 Credit to the Texans for being like, hey, C.J.
Speaker 10 Stroud's really goddamn good.
Speaker 100 Let's let him win this game.
Speaker 10
Well, it's because the Bucs, I think they're like two or three in the NFL in terms of how much they blitz. Yeah.
So they're able to stop the run when they finish. And Vita Veya.
Speaker 10
And Vita Vey is also a big key to that, too. But C.J.
Stroud is awesome against the Blitz, it turns out. We told you this.
Speaker 23 He's awesome all the time.
Speaker 10 He's awesome all the time.
Speaker 42 He was awesome in college.
Speaker 85 It's like, it shouldn't be a surprise.
Speaker 10 You know what? Ohio State quarterbacks are actually great in the NFL. They're great.
Speaker 89 They're great.
Speaker 82 They're next up.
Speaker 89 Yeah, that's all the crew right there.
Speaker 114 Kyle McCord. McCord.
Speaker 10 Everybody.
Speaker 10 The Bucs on the other side of it.
Speaker 10 I kind of like it when teams like the Bucs and the Rams, they get their Super Bowl, and then they just completely fall apart.
Speaker 40 But you hold on.
Speaker 9 Yeah, you hold on to it.
Speaker 10 Like you rent a Super Bowl, you go all out, you recognize where your window is, and you say, you know what? Fuck it.
Speaker 10 We're going to give our fans one chance to really do something, and then we're just going to be crummy for the next five years afterwards. Right.
Speaker 10 Because if you have Super Bowl winning players, you hold on to some of them too long because you're like, these guys want a Super Bowl. Yeah.
Speaker 10 But you forget about the fact that there's some other very key players that
Speaker 10 are now no longer with the team. And you can't expect Baker Mayfield to do with the same roster what Tom Brady did.
Speaker 26 And his roster.
Speaker 94 The Bucs past events was atrocious.
Speaker 75 Yeah. They got absolutely torched.
Speaker 108 But I like it.
Speaker 10 It's good for us long-suffering fan bases to see, like, okay,
Speaker 10 if you go all in on your window, you're just going to come back to us. Just come on back and be shitty with us.
Speaker 45 And there's no regrets.
Speaker 40 No,
Speaker 106 you know, flags fly forever.
Speaker 112 But yeah, it's true.
Speaker 60 Like, the Bucs were like, hey, we won a Super Bowl.
Speaker 67 Now we're getting a little older.
Speaker 99 Let's just plug and play a couple of these key positions and hope it works out.
Speaker 10 Because you have to think some of your older players that were on that Super Bowl, they're going to get into the ring of honor one day. They're going to be invited back for every ceremony.
Speaker 10
It's like, oh, members of the Super Bowl winning Bucs. So you can't cut them the year after.
You don't want to leave a bad taste in their mouth. This is a relationship that the front office knows.
Speaker 10 Like, oh, we're going to have to see you once a year for the next 20 years. So I guess if it's between you and like a second-year guy that's on the bubble, we're just going to get rid of him.
Speaker 72 And it goes even down to just being like, oh, yeah, Todd Bowles will be our coach.
Speaker 55 Yeah.
Speaker 63 He stinks. 0%.
Speaker 10 0%. He goes for it on toss-up situations.
Speaker 9 And Stephen Shea, our friend, who's a die-hard Bucks fan, who's slowly coming to grips with the Bucs stink because they've now lost four straight.
Speaker 25 They started the season three and one.
Speaker 83 He rightfully was very angry at Todd Bowles because Todd Bowles, it was like 40 seconds left.
Speaker 43 They fumbled the ball.
Speaker 15 Todd Bowles used
Speaker 114 the fumble.
Speaker 44 Todd Bowles used a timeout, his last timeout, and then took a shot at the end zone on the next play, scored a touchdown, but left the Texans with
Speaker 41 40 seconds left to be enough time. Too much time for C.J.
Speaker 10
Stroud. I think it went between like 55 seconds down to 40 seconds after the touchdown.
Some
Speaker 10 situation where it was about a 15-second swing. And in that part of the game, like, yeah,
Speaker 10 you don't need to call a timeout. You've got four shots at the end zone you're going to take.
Speaker 113 Right, don't call a timeout, then take a shot at the end zone.
Speaker 114 Yeah, and also wait to maybe run the ball and then take a shot at the end zone.
Speaker 10 And they could have tried to kick a field goal later.
Speaker 10 You want that timeout in case you need to, in case you get tackled inbounds, you take a sack, you have to kick a field goal, call a timeout, get your guys out on the field.
Speaker 10 Todd Bowles is a bird brain.
Speaker 92 Todd Bowles is a bad coach.
Speaker 10 Nice guy.
Speaker 25 Poor Stephen Shea,
Speaker 79 he rides with the Bucs so hard.
Speaker 15 He even said when the Bucs had five seconds left, 70 yards from the end zone, and they started the lateral play.
Speaker 77 He's like, ooh, I like how this is looking.
Speaker 82 It's like, really, Steven?
Speaker 75 The left guard just
Speaker 40 coughed up the football backwards, 10 yards down the line of scrimmage.
Speaker 15 It was hopeless.
Speaker 105 It was hopeless. But C.J.
Speaker 56 Stroud, man, he's the real deal.
Speaker 44 Like, if you're a Texans fan, you really just went through hell and escaped pretty quickly.
Speaker 34 Yeah.
Speaker 47 Because the Deshaun thing was hell.
Speaker 10 And you had Mills Mafia. Yeah.
Speaker 40 And now you have all the hope in the world.
Speaker 10 And you got draft picks coming up next year. And you have the coach.
Speaker 5 Yep.
Speaker 99 Like, Texans, you might want to buy all the stock in Texans because if you're a Texans fan, the hope meter is completely full.
Speaker 42 And it's like, this is now, hey, if you could somehow sneak into the playoffs, you don't even have to make the playoffs this year.
Speaker 10
Yeah. The real life hack.
Tank Dell is awesome. The life hack isn't necessarily drafting well.
It's hoping the people in front of you draft really poorly. Right.
And that you're just given a gift.
Speaker 39 Right.
Speaker 10
And so you got a gift. You get a Panthers or a Bears in front of you.
Enjoy it. Yeah.
Enjoy this gift.
Speaker 26 Yeah.
Speaker 70 All right.
Speaker 4 Jake, you got a score of me?
Speaker 10 I did.
Speaker 59 Congratulations.
Speaker 22 Thank you. Appreciate it.
Speaker 18 I'm not going to be, I've reassessed.
Speaker 121 I did a little reassessment of my own protocols.
Speaker 32 We're getting to that part of the season where I'm like low on sleep.
Speaker 18 Maybe a little irritable from time to time.
Speaker 41 I'm not going to yuck your yum.
Speaker 79 I'm going to let you enjoy scoreigamis.
Speaker 95 I'm going to put aside the fact that you don't bet on any of the games or even really root for anything except weird scores to happen and just be like, congratulations.
Speaker 9 Thank you.
Speaker 79 Yeah, I root for all your stuff.
Speaker 19 Yeah, I appreciate that. Handshakes.
Speaker 26 Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 10 How much of Big Get you changing your tune on this is the fact that Jake wasn't around us to cheer on the score.
Speaker 65 100%. 100%.
Speaker 67 If he had, if in the middle of the witching hour
Speaker 45 and I was sweating out bets
Speaker 10 about Jake.
Speaker 32 And Jake said, hey, can someone take a picture of me me in front of the TV while I'm like dying with every bet?
Speaker 9 I would have 100% been like, fuck, score.
Speaker 10 After last week's interaction, I would have like gone to the PMT studio and taken a picture.
Speaker 11 But I realized, I was
Speaker 10 going to do that, Jake. We want you to be you.
Speaker 40 I want you to be you.
Speaker 10 And also realize that it's not a you problem that he's upset with you about scoreigamis. It's not your problem.
Speaker 10 It's when he is when he is sweating out a bet when he's losing in all likelihood like losing a bet coming down to the end and then he sees somebody else It doesn't matter what they're happy about no if someone's happy about their other bet, I'm fine with it.
Speaker 10 Another bet, yeah. Yeah, but if it's you getting your picture taken in front of numbers, then he's going to be like, Well, my numbers
Speaker 10 are bad.
Speaker 10 My numbers are bad. Why are your numbers good?
Speaker 83 And your numbers didn't win you anything, but it did win you something.
Speaker 111 Happiness, and that's what I realized.
Speaker 40 So I apologize.
Speaker 10 I appreciate the change of perspective.
Speaker 59 I do think there's too many of them.
Speaker 33 I'll stay with that.
Speaker 53 You can have that.
Speaker 67 This was way too many of them.
Speaker 10 This was a good scoregami, though, because I don't like it when they're numbers that you think would have happened before. And then you get excited about like a 20 to like 11 scoreigami or something.
Speaker 10
When it's a game where it's, what, 37, 39? Yeah, 39, 37 Texans win. When you see that score, it's like, those are some funky ass numbers.
And the fact that it happened. There was no alert for this.
Speaker 40 Well, no, this one was all at the end.
Speaker 56 This one was cool because it was directly related to Fairbairn getting hurt.
Speaker 19 Right. And then them.
Speaker 115 kneeling the two-point conversion
Speaker 106 because they had to and they didn't want to give up like a pick or any kind of weird play happening so yeah this Gami, I actually kind of enjoyed.
Speaker 25 Like that was.
Speaker 15 Thanks.
Speaker 24 It also was because you weren't taking the picture in front of me, but I did enjoy it.
Speaker 26 I did enjoy it.
Speaker 10
Dare Ugun Boale. Yep, the badger.
The badger that came on, kicked a field goal. I think it was a 29-yarder.
Speaker 81 Yep.
Speaker 10 Bad look for kickers because anyone can step in and do their job. That's bad.
Speaker 10 But very cool to watch, especially watching the reactions from the coaches on the sideline who were just like so pumped to see him make a field goal.
Speaker 10 It also shows that on kickoffs, if you have a guy like, who's a guy in the Chiefs? Is it Reed? Their safety, who's got a fucking cannon on his leg.
Speaker 10 If you have a guy that can kick the ball deep and kick it relatively straight, having another dude out there that can make a tackle is such a big advantage to you.
Speaker 4 Such a big advantage.
Speaker 10
It lets you cover the kick so much better. Otherwise, you're essentially running like a 10-on-11 Wildcat return.
Yes. Where they've got the numbers on you.
Speaker 10 So if you've got a guy that can kick it remotely deep, and he also happens to be a defensive player, that's a good thing. Yeah.
Speaker 55 Jake, just wondering how many score commis are left so I can prepare myself in this new world.
Speaker 10
Well no, but like let's say that under 50s like each side has under 50. Under 50s there's like 100.
But most of them are in the 40s.
Speaker 10 Under 30
Speaker 10
there's like 10 realistic ones. Okay.
With the winning team under 30.
Speaker 60 How pumped were you for this one?
Speaker 10 It was great because it came out of nowhere. Yeah.
Speaker 90 And you were by a TV?
Speaker 10 Yeah, I had just gotten home. So for the witching hour.
Speaker 36 Thank God.
Speaker 10 Is that why you got home? Just in case?
Speaker 115 Yeah, just in case.
Speaker 65 Because if you had missed the picture, I wouldn't have counted it.
Speaker 10 And you would have loved that.
Speaker 63 No, I'm fine with you taking a picture somewhere else.
Speaker 36 Yeah.
Speaker 40 Yeah.
Speaker 23 I want you to be happy.
Speaker 106 I did feel like I was being a little bit hard.
Speaker 25 And I, look, people should find enjoyment however they want to be the guy being like, you shouldn't enjoy that.
Speaker 110 That's stupid.
Speaker 82 That's lame.
Speaker 111 I was being lame.
Speaker 112 I was being a lame ass, grumpy pants.
Speaker 55 It's all right.
Speaker 5 But I've changed.
Speaker 10 So in the future, you can do it.
Speaker 9 What's the protocol?
Speaker 34 You can do it. Okay.
Speaker 36 You won't be annoying about it.
Speaker 23 No, no, no. You can do it.
Speaker 10 Here's the deal. You can do.
Speaker 90 I don't think you're trying to be annoying.
Speaker 42 It's just
Speaker 65 anything you want.
Speaker 40 You can do it.
Speaker 10 You can do anything you want.
Speaker 10 If it makes you happy, do it.
Speaker 44 I can also, if it makes me happy, to be like, fuck you, Jake.
Speaker 114 I will say it in the moment.
Speaker 40 But yeah, you can do it anyway.
Speaker 26 I know it's not personal.
Speaker 54 Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 96 It never was personal.
Speaker 43 Never.
Speaker 42 It's more the score of Gamis thing.
Speaker 53 There's been too many. It's just like my time with you.
Speaker 101 Is this the most in a year?
Speaker 36 It's got to be. It's got to be.
Speaker 24 Also, when you did down a gami the other day, that was that was a reach.
Speaker 23 We have too many games.
Speaker 67 I'll admit it. I'll admit it.
Speaker 65 Jake was got to be a record.
Speaker 1 First in 23.
Speaker 97 Jake was like, is there such thing as down agami?
Speaker 65 There was also a first and one. Yeah.
Speaker 36 I didn't want to.
Speaker 107 Now you got it in my head.
Speaker 9 Yeah.
Speaker 82 Which I don't hate.
Speaker 45 It's very Jake, and that's okay.
Speaker 10 There's just unlimited agamis if you translate it to any part of the game.
Speaker 55 I know.
Speaker 79 But it was a reach.
Speaker 42 When he said down agami, I was like, I have to stop this now.
Speaker 88 Otherwise, we're going to gami everything.
Speaker 11 But, Jake, you be you.
Speaker 103 I apologize.
Speaker 10 I will continue being myself. Yes.
Speaker 79 And I appreciate the support.
Speaker 24 Do you think there's too many, though?
Speaker 54
There's been a lot. We're on a run.
There's been a lot.
Speaker 37 You know what it is?
Speaker 10 You're on pace for a gami gami.
Speaker 74 Oh, what's the most in a year?
Speaker 10 I don't know. I'll have to do the research.
Speaker 79 Do the research today.
Speaker 11 All right.
Speaker 10 This is actually something I would like to know.
Speaker 81
Yeah. I'm interested in this.
How many...
Speaker 90 It'd have to be like maybe in the last 20 years because obviously year one of the NFL
Speaker 40 is.
Speaker 48 Oh, that's it. Yeah.
Speaker 32 Jake would have been standing in front of every TV.
Speaker 79 First season of the NFL.
Speaker 56 And we only would have had one TV.
Speaker 20 Yep.
Speaker 43 We only had one game.
Speaker 10 Well, keep in mind, we also have 16 more regular season games and like two or three more postseason games. That's true.
Speaker 53 More football, more gummies. Exactly.
Speaker 29 Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 40 I'm happy for you. Thank you.
Speaker 59 Yeah.
Speaker 82 Okay, so this game ruled.
Speaker 49 This is my, maybe, this is my game of the early slate.
Speaker 10 It was awesome.
Speaker 59 We had a great witching hour.
Speaker 10
Listen, the football was great today. We've had some weeks where it's like you get one or two good games and the rest are just shit.
This was, there was action happening everywhere.
Speaker 99 And it was funny because we went into this weekend being like, Chiefs, Dolphins, Seahawks,
Speaker 39 Seahawks, Ravens.
Speaker 49 These are the big games, and it's where you don't expect it.
Speaker 10 I don't know if you guys had Red Zone on here, but watching at home, Scott Hanson, they had a side-by-side of Baker's fourth in-game and Dobbs' fourth in-game.
Speaker 10 They both scrambled and ran for it at the same exact time on Red Zone.
Speaker 102 Oh, that's wild.
Speaker 56 Yeah, we had all the games on.
Speaker 10 Right, I figured, but I don't know if there was a Red Zone box, but it was so sick.
Speaker 108 Yeah, that is sick.
Speaker 90 Okay, should we take a break and then we get to the other four games, which weren't as good.
Speaker 19 No, they weren't as good.
Speaker 124

Speaker 40 Okay,
Speaker 18 the big one: Commanders Commanders and Patriots.
Speaker 89 Hank, sit up.
Speaker 76 Sit up, Henry.
Speaker 10 Adjust your posture, Hank. Adjust your posture.
Speaker 9 Look professional.
Speaker 83 I'll just be moderator here.
Speaker 33 I'll let you guys do whatever you want.
Speaker 20 The Commanders, 20.
Speaker 99 The Patriots, 17.
Speaker 121 Sam Howell looked awesome.
Speaker 89 Yep. 50.
Speaker 18 Except for that one touchdown.
Speaker 40 Well, it was a touchdown.
Speaker 10
He threw it into the end zone. Yes, Hank.
Thank you for calling on me. I had a question for you.
Trivia question. Yes.
Speaker 10 What do you think Sam Howell is record-wise against Super Bowl-winning coaches?
Speaker 125 I'm going to guess he is 4-0.
Speaker 10
No, he's 3-0. 3-0.
He beat Sean Payton.
Speaker 43 That was dirty what you just did.
Speaker 10
He beat Sean Payton. He beat our good friend Bill Belichick, and he beat Mike McCarthy.
So 3-0, Sam Howell, he's like a little mini Tua back there. Stud.
He is a stud. Sam Howell is firmly the guy.
Speaker 10
He's my guy. He's our guy.
He is the guy in D.C.
Speaker 10
I actually feel very, very good about the future of this team right now. And it might be like week to week.
I can get down on him sometimes.
Speaker 10 But the last two games that Sam Howell has played, I think they have the most passing yards in the NFL over two-game span.
Speaker 10 Sam Howell is, without a doubt, the guy. Very happy with him.
Speaker 59 Top 15 quarterback.
Speaker 10 Top 15 quarterback in the NFL. I would say top 12.
Speaker 65 Top 12 quarterback.
Speaker 10
And guess where he is? That's like when Ravel says, I own upwards of nine pieces of merchandise. I think he is a top 12 quarterback in the NFL.
I am very excited about the future of this team.
Speaker 10 In fact,
Speaker 10 I'm now talking myself back in the playoffs because someone's got to get that seventh.
Speaker 10
And Max, you better watch out. If you get the two seed and the commanders get the seven seed, you don't want to play us again, Max.
No, you don't want to do it.
Speaker 9 Don't want to do it.
Speaker 10 But Hank, I'll let you have the floor because I know you watch the game.
Speaker 15 By the way, the top 12, the qualifiers that were used was
Speaker 89 something right now.
Speaker 71 Right now. It was right now.
Speaker 33 So it was like eliminating Matt Stafford, Kirk Cousins, Aaron Rodgers.
Speaker 9 They're not playing right now.
Speaker 90 All these guys.
Speaker 10 Current starting quarterbacks.
Speaker 5 It was like literally the last two weeks.
Speaker 10 Current starting quarterbacks in the NFL, top 12.
Speaker 90 Because you had one that was wild that you said.
Speaker 10 I had a couple that were wild.
Speaker 53 Yeah, that were just wild.
Speaker 10 What were they?
Speaker 25 You want them over to Sean?
Speaker 15 Yes. Even though we took contracts out.
Speaker 125
Yep. Okay.
Gino?
Speaker 59 Yes. Yep.
Speaker 105 The Stafford one was because Stafford one was, I was like, if he plays next week, PFT was like, yeah, I'd take Sam Howell over Matt Stafford.
Speaker 10 Yes, I would still do that. Next week.
Speaker 117 I would not.
Speaker 10
That might be insane. I actually think that Matt Stafford is great and very underrated still as a quarterback somehow.
But
Speaker 85 that changed quickly.
Speaker 32 You have a future on the Rams win total.
Speaker 79 I do.
Speaker 10
Over seven and a half. But that was before Matt Stafford got hurt.
Okay. He's hurt.
He's got a dislocated thumb, big cat. I want my quarterback with two great thumbs.
Speaker 36 Hank.
Speaker 125 I was a mid-off. Gross game to watch.
Speaker 125 Patriots are very uninspiring. Per usual.
Speaker 10 I wouldn't say that the Patriots are mid. No, they're actually
Speaker 71 the worst team in the ACT.
Speaker 10 Isn't mid like a battle of average teams? Yeah, it is.
Speaker 10 Hank's mid is doing a lot of work on that.
Speaker 116 Hank, factor fiction, the worst team in the AFC.
Speaker 125 Well, mids is the worst type of weed.
Speaker 10 No, it's actually one of the best. No, it is.
Speaker 53 No, no, mid is average.
Speaker 125 That's mids.
Speaker 36 No.
Speaker 9 No, that's a good thing. You don't know what mids is.
Speaker 125 You don't know what mids is. Mids is mid.
Speaker 72 What about oregano?
Speaker 100 That's the worst type of weed.
Speaker 125 That's bunk.
Speaker 106 You're telling me. Okay, so bunk is the worst.
Speaker 93 So the Patriots are bunk.
Speaker 125 I guess, yeah, the Patriots are ass.
Speaker 116 Hank, fact or fiction are the worst team in the AFC.
Speaker 54 Fact? Yeah.
Speaker 110 Record-wise, they are the worst.
Speaker 40 Well, then fact, that's fact.
Speaker 102 Statistical fact.
Speaker 118 Statistical fact.
Speaker 125 Good for the draft position, which at this point is all I'm rooting for.
Speaker 120 You are right now.
Speaker 125
I did want to get that Lighthouse on the board. I didn't want to have to admit that the lighthouse is not.
Yeah, that's that's we got work to do there.
Speaker 121 You right now are taking Brock Bowers.
Speaker 36 Baby Gronk.
Speaker 21 That's pretty exciting. Baby Gronk.
Speaker 125 But I have to, you know, I have to admit the Lighthouse is not real. I have to make a PowerPoint presentation, which is just more work, which sucks.
Speaker 75 You have to admit what we all knew.
Speaker 125 Although the team did release a really cool video today of a drone painting up from a water, federally funded, and you could see the lighthouse in the background, which I got some tips from the inside was not coincidence.
Speaker 10 Yeah, so it was interesting because you showed me that video acting like it was proving something, and the drone starts off like 100 feet in the air and then goes up 200 feet in the air.
Speaker 10
So, I don't know. I don't think you can see it from the waterway.
It didn't really prove anything.
Speaker 15 Are we boring you?
Speaker 40 Yeah,
Speaker 89 yeah, well, just yawned in our face.
Speaker 10 I think you knew the lighthouse was fake all along, and you're like, defend the wall, Patriots, Hank, kind of came out a little bit.
Speaker 17 It should be a relief.
Speaker 17 You can just admit it.
Speaker 89 Not really.
Speaker 125
It's like, I have nothing, I have nothing to root for. I said we got to rebuild around the Lighthouse.
The Lighthouse was kind of like,
Speaker 125 that was my Super Bowl this year.
Speaker 122 And now you don't have anything.
Speaker 10 I actually think Gronk could shotgun the Lighthouse. That's how flimsy and tasteless it is.
Speaker 15 Do you think there's a chance that Bill Belichick watched Sam Howell and was like top 12 quarterback?
Speaker 117 I thought so.
Speaker 118 I want to coach this guy.
Speaker 10 He was looking real hard when Sam Howell was on the field.
Speaker 125 I don't don't think so i don't think he's gonna go coach uh the washington whatever the fuck they're called next year
Speaker 10 uh you think he hates the lighthouse i bet he does that's like some mickey mouse only been bad memories yeah belichek doesn't like publicity stunts like that he likes football he likes a football team well no but he only there was a team that had been called the football team at one point he could work with he's obviously you know a
Speaker 125 big fan of the troops service members he knows the importance of of things like lighthouses for the navy and things of that nature so
Speaker 125 his supporter, yeah.
Speaker 10 Well, what about a team that's literally called the Commanders that's stationed like, I don't know, 30 minutes away from the Naval Academy?
Speaker 125 Factor Fiction, they're not going to use that name because Josh Harris hasn't been wearing the merch.
Speaker 10 That's a fact, but also they're really close to Naval Academy. So Factor Fiction, he loves Naval Academy.
Speaker 54 Fact.
Speaker 10
That's a fact. That's a fact, Jack.
I did like Ron Rivera in the post-game. You know, a lot of coaches are like, Victory Monday, we're taking work off.
Rivera, in true, I'm already fired in.
Speaker 10 I know it, Guy Fashion, goes, we're doing victory Monday. Everybody's like, yeah.
Speaker 64 He's like, and victory Tuesday.
Speaker 11 Oh, no work till Wednesday.
Speaker 10
Nice. That's what I would do.
If I was in his shoes right now, I'd be like, you know what? Let's just not, nobody show up to work till Friday.
Speaker 67 Yeah, we're good.
Speaker 10 We're good here. We don't really need to do this.
Speaker 56 What Pifty, how many wins do you think the commanders need to get to to get the seventh seed now that you're back into playoff mode?
Speaker 10 I think nine.
Speaker 86 Okay, should we take a look?
Speaker 82 Go through the schedule.
Speaker 23 Give me their wins.
Speaker 10 Yep, go through the schedule.
Speaker 40 All right.
Speaker 74 At Seahawks.
Speaker 55 Win. Sam.
Speaker 40 Five. Now they're five.
Speaker 32 Giants at home.
Speaker 55 Win.
Speaker 90 They struggle with the Giants.
Speaker 10 That wasn't Tommy DeVito, though. Okay.
Speaker 26 At Cowboys. Loss.
Speaker 10 Okay, so there's still a credit to me for being realistic.
Speaker 26 Dolphins. Loss.
Speaker 19 Okay.
Speaker 10 Well, Dolphins suck against good teams. Are we good teams?
Speaker 55 No, you wouldn't.
Speaker 60 We're not. We're not.
Speaker 23 We're not. We're not.
Speaker 9 At Rams.
Speaker 53 That's a win.
Speaker 111 Yeah, win. Yeah.
Speaker 28 At Jets.
Speaker 10 I'm going to say loss.
Speaker 10
We don't play well at MetLife. This is bad for you.
We don't play well at MetLife.
Speaker 41 Niners.
Speaker 10 Loss.
Speaker 26 Cowboys. Win.
Speaker 10 Sam Howell beat him at home last year. That's eight wins.
Speaker 94 We'll find another one.
Speaker 53 And you also gave yourself a win at the Seahawks.
Speaker 10 Yeah. Okay, so we'll be...
Speaker 10 Yeah, there's...
Speaker 40 Hang on. No, no, we're going to make the playoffs.
Speaker 65 I looked at the schedule and I was like, wait.
Speaker 10 Why are you bringing Matthew to this? I just
Speaker 10 did it. I gave that take from my balls.
Speaker 36 Okay, let's find it.
Speaker 40 Let's find it. Okay.
Speaker 82
I think the Dolphins might say a win. Say the schedule again.
All right.
Speaker 55 At Seahawks. Win.
Speaker 79 Okay, so now you're at five. Yeah.
Speaker 26 Oh, I know what I'm going to do.
Speaker 90 Giants at home.
Speaker 10 Yeah, win.
Speaker 38 Okay. At Cowboys.
Speaker 26 Loss.
Speaker 48 Okay.
Speaker 40 Dolphins.
Speaker 40 In December.
Speaker 40 At home. At home.
Speaker 10 No, I'm going to be honest and say loss.
Speaker 48 At Rams.
Speaker 55 Win.
Speaker 82
At Jets. Win.
Okay, there it is.
Speaker 12 Niners. Loss.
Speaker 26 Cowboys. Win.
Speaker 39 Wait, that's still eight.
Speaker 107 How do we do that?
Speaker 65 How do we do that?
Speaker 82
This is going to be some great podcasting. All right, do it.
Fuck it.
Speaker 10 Run it back.
Speaker 107 Okay, here we go.
Speaker 65 You have four wins right now.
Speaker 40 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 48 All right, I'm counting. At Seahawks.
Speaker 82 Win.
Speaker 19 Giants. Win.
Speaker 45 At Cowboys.
Speaker 48 Loss.
Speaker 70 Dolphins.
Speaker 26 Loss.
Speaker 55 At Rams. Win.
Speaker 19 At Jets. Win.
Speaker 15 Niners. Loss.
Speaker 10
Cowboys. There's a news.
Win. That's nine.
Speaker 40 That's nine.
Speaker 10 And we're in in the playoffs as the seven seed, right where we want to be.
Speaker 9 Going up to the bank.
Speaker 10 Going up to the bank and taking on.
Speaker 1 And oh, you have your tiebreaker against the Falcons.
Speaker 126 Could you stop saying that the Eagles are the one seed in the NFC right now?
Speaker 82 I don't know why you have just magically put it on the field.
Speaker 65 I want this so bad.
Speaker 10 You should have lost
Speaker 11 this so bad.
Speaker 11 You'll win the football.
Speaker 32 I might put a future on the commanders to make the playoffs just because I want this so bad.
Speaker 64 I might do it.
Speaker 10 I'm so far ahead that I'm going to put a future on the commanders to win a playoff game because they're going to play the Eagles.
Speaker 91 So next week's must-win.
Speaker 41 Must-win.
Speaker 43 Because when you look at the schedule, you have to win next week.
Speaker 10 Yeah, and if we lose that, then I'll just switch either the Dolphins game or the at Dallas game to a must-win. Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 9 It's that easy. Yeah, or the Ninth Winters.
Speaker 53 It's going home. Yeah.
Speaker 10 It's a must-win. Yeah, the Niners might be the Niners might be in first place in the NFC by that time.
Speaker 40 Okay, commanders. There's nothing to pay for.
Speaker 10 Commanders, it could happen.
Speaker 1 Hank, you want to do your schedule? Sure.
Speaker 37 Okay, hold on.
Speaker 114 Let me pull it up.
Speaker 85 You have two wins right now.
Speaker 10 The Patriots.
Speaker 69 The Patriots have two wins.
Speaker 20 Oh, this one's going to test everyone's football fandom next week in Germany against the Colts.
Speaker 73 Win
Speaker 19 at Giants.
Speaker 73 Win.
Speaker 82 At Chargers.
Speaker 73 Win.
Speaker 40 Okay.
Speaker 101 At Steelers.
Speaker 10 Win. You still think you're mid?
Speaker 111 Chiefs.
Speaker 102 Win. Okay, at Broncos.
Speaker 125 Win. At Bills.
Speaker 23 At the Bills? At the Bills.
Speaker 10 Loss. Oh, you remember that Monday?
Speaker 40 Win.
Speaker 98 Wow.
Speaker 56 So you guys are going to finish 9-8, same as the Commanders.
Speaker 125 That's pretty good. So today was a mid-off.
Speaker 36 Yeah. All right.
Speaker 40 Today was a true mid-off.
Speaker 81 Two nine and eight teams don't matter.
Speaker 10
They're both going to have like six wins this season. Oh, man.
No, I mean,
Speaker 10 I could be talking to the Commanders.
Speaker 10 Ron Rivera is probably giving him Monday and Tuesday off so he can go do job interviews somewhere. That's a classic move.
Speaker 10 But I am feeling good. I'm feeling good about the future of the franchise just because
Speaker 10
you have a good quarterback. The defensive line looked good today.
We have two fill-ins.
Speaker 25 We got draft picks.
Speaker 10
We got a new owner, new name probably. New stadium in the next four years.
You might have gotten your groove back.
Speaker 39 I did. I did.
Speaker 10 If you're buying stock, you should buy stock in Washington right now.
Speaker 102 Is there a chance the Patriots are Jesus ahead of that?
Speaker 62 Is there a chance the Patriots are really bad?
Speaker 89 Oh, they're very bad, yeah.
Speaker 88 And you won by three.
Speaker 10 Yeah, that's also, yeah, it's a possibility.
Speaker 36 I mean,
Speaker 10 have you listened to me react to any commander's win before on this show? It's the same thing. Oh, I get excited, but I can't change who I am.
Speaker 122 No, you can't.
Speaker 10
I feel good about this win. I feel good about having a quarterback that can throw the ball.
Yeah. It's been so long since I've had that.
It's huge.
Speaker 2 If you beat the Cowboys twice, you could maybe even finish second in the NFCs.
Speaker 102 Who knows?
Speaker 43 Yeah, who knows?
Speaker 10 All right. Cowboys first, commanders second, Eagles third.
Speaker 53 Eagles third.
Speaker 9 All right. Packers, Rams.
Speaker 69 This game stunk.
Speaker 72 Brett Ripon.
Speaker 99 And I mean, the Rams stink anyway, but then when you put in Brett Ripple, they're extra stinky.
Speaker 10 Yeah, he was hilarious, but not in a fun, hilarious way. It was funny enough.
Speaker 10 He did have a very funny fumble. Yeah.
Speaker 59 And the Packers, Jordan Love looked good.
Speaker 76 They finally ran the ball, which I think every Packers fan on the face of the earth has been asking them to do.
Speaker 15 Aaron Jones ran the ball 20 times, effectively.
Speaker 72 And yeah, this game was not fun to watch, but good for the Packers.
Speaker 10 So I'm going to turn this over to a recurring guest, a part of my take, actually, Samuel L. Jackson, because he had the best take on this game.
Speaker 10 He said, at what point do we start the Rams coaching conversation? Oh, I think you just did, Samuel L. I think you just did.
Speaker 9 Oh, he's on TV right there.
Speaker 10
That's wild. That is wild.
I would like to say that Samuel L brings up a good point, although I don't think that we should talk about firing Sean McVay because Sean McVay is, without a doubt,
Speaker 10 probably a top five coach in the NFL.
Speaker 10 But I do think that he should be allowed to work remotely with a newborn. Like at this game, did he really need to show up for this game? No.
Speaker 10 He could have done this all on Zoom and just chill it at his house where he does it. It's like when they do the draft and the Rams don't have any picks.
Speaker 10 That's how Sean McVay should coach the Rams when they play in a game and he doesn't have a starting quarterback. Yeah.
Speaker 40 I'd agree.
Speaker 9 Let him work from home.
Speaker 84 I should, I want to remind everyone, because this is
Speaker 80 always tough when a team wins a couple games to start the season, and everyone's like, ooh, they might be good.
Speaker 101 The Rams were not supposed to be good this year.
Speaker 9 They weren't.
Speaker 104 They were not supposed to be in the playoffs.
Speaker 118 I think their win total was like six and a half preseason.
Speaker 18 So it's not really surprising that they stink.
Speaker 10
They stink. What did it for me was watching Matt Stafford play because when he's healthy and he plays, he's still really, really good.
Yeah.
Speaker 10 And he can get you to win some games that you should not win just with some ridiculous throws. So
Speaker 10 I'm not ready to put the Rams at like the bottom of the barrel when Matt Stafford's playing. When he's not playing,
Speaker 102 they're very, very bad.
Speaker 9 Yeah, I think they're unwatchable.
Speaker 15 I think they're pretty bad even when he's playing.
Speaker 19 But yeah, I just,
Speaker 25 I thought they were going to be bad going into this year, and they won a couple games early that everyone was like, ooh, watch out for the Rams.
Speaker 19 They're kind of what we expected.
Speaker 44 So I don't think Sean McVay's job should be...
Speaker 7 His seat should be hot.
Speaker 10 No, because if you even let him know that, he's just going to go to TV. Yeah.
Speaker 113 And the Packers, good for the Packers.
Speaker 92 Let's see, their draft pick went down to the seventh pick today.
Speaker 90
So good win. You need those wins.
Yep.
Speaker 91 Someone's got to get the seventh seed.
Speaker 10
It's a win where on Sunday you're watching it. If you're a Packers fan, you're like, hell yeah.
All right. We
Speaker 10
went up to Lambo, got a win, saw a bunch of guys in the stands wearing their deer hunting outfits that they wear when the season starts. That's always fun.
I think it starts next weekend.
Speaker 10
Oh, next weekend? Yeah, next weekend. Okay, next weekend, you'll see a lot of camo up in the stands.
A lot of real tree.
Speaker 102 I'm going to clown you.
Speaker 10
A lot of real tree. Thank you.
Yeah, I don't want another mistake of... No, I was doing a bit like when we do daylight savings time every year.
That's right.
Speaker 10 We always say that hunting season starts one week early. Yes, yes.
Speaker 10 But yeah, if you're a Packers fan, today was fun because you got to see win, but then you're going to sit down Monday and be like, I really wish we had not won that game.
Speaker 44 Yeah, but Jordan Love did look better.
Speaker 82 Yeah.
Speaker 93 Better.
Speaker 39 He does.
Speaker 63 He likes.
Speaker 116 I think he spent too much time with Aaron Rodgers.
Speaker 10 You think so?
Speaker 53 Yeah.
Speaker 81 Got a contact high?
Speaker 6 No, some of his movements are Aaron Rodgers-esque, like I can throw this ball from any angle kind of thing, or like backpedaling.
Speaker 41 It's like, but you're not Aaron Rodgers.
Speaker 10 Watching him run the Aaron Rodgers hard count is tough.
Speaker 62 Right.
Speaker 11 I don't know. That's just a working theory that I have.
Speaker 62 I don't know if Packers fans are going to say I'm really stupid, but there's just a couple of times where it's like he's almost doing an imitation of Aaron Rodgers until he releases the throw.
Speaker 6 And it's like, wait, that throw is not Aaron Rodgers.
Speaker 10 It's like a really shitty cover of a song that you love.
Speaker 72 Right, right.
Speaker 41 Maybe I'm way off.
Speaker 18 Maybe I'm just seeing it with hater glasses on.
Speaker 34 You might be.
Speaker 10
I think that's a distinct possibility. I think the Powders fans might silently agree with you.
I don't think that real fans of the team think that Jordan Love is the future.
Speaker 7 No, but he won the game today, so they probably should give him more time.
Speaker 121 Yeah.
Speaker 75 Probably give him more time. All right.
Speaker 20 Another stinky game.
Speaker 32 Browns, 27, Cardinals, zero.
Speaker 117 Clayton Toon.
Speaker 53 Poor Clayton Toon.
Speaker 83 I mean, to start your career against the Browns.
Speaker 20 And this defense, he was sacked seven times.
Speaker 86 He threw two picks.
Speaker 79 The Cardinals' offense had 58 net offensive yards.
Speaker 6 They were one for 12 from third down, and the Browns got their first shutout since 2007.
Speaker 10 Yeah, they had 17 net yards passing, 41 yards rushing, seven sacks, three turnovers.
Speaker 9 The Browns at home, 4-1.
Speaker 10
Stefansky improves to 18-7 after a loss. They always win after they lose.
And if you're a Browns fan that's like, run the damn ball, Stefansky, you got your wish today. You got fronted.
Speaker 10 It was one of them had 20 carries, one of them had 13, and they both averaged like 2.2 yards per carry.
Speaker 10 But it was about just like running the ball, establishing the run, killing the clock, knowing that the Cardinals are not nearly good enough to beat you with that defense.
Speaker 10 So you just play like keep away.
Speaker 103 Yeah, and that's what they did.
Speaker 90 They absolutely smothered him.
Speaker 56 It was never a doubt.
Speaker 56 Deshaun back looked bad to start. started to kind of find himself later.
Speaker 10 That touchdown pass off a helmet really got him going.
Speaker 56 That one was crazy, but he did also throw a nice ball to Mari Cooper later in the game.
Speaker 4 I guess if you're, well, Browns fans, in perfect Browns fashion, you kill the Cardinals, first shutouts since 2007.
Speaker 95 Deshaun comes back, starts to kind of feel like he's finding his legs, and then your star offensive lineman Dedrick Willis gets carted off.
Speaker 102 Yeah, that way.
Speaker 90 It's just like, this is with the whole Browns season.
Speaker 81 Whenever they have a little bit of happiness, it's like, nope, let's smash it real quick.
Speaker 10 And so you talked about the Roller Coaster Browns season.
Speaker 10
I think the schedule makers designed it that way. Yeah.
Because if you look at their next series of games, like they are probably going to lose to the Ravens.
Speaker 10
They are probably going to beat the Steelers. And oh, then they have the Broncos.
They'll probably win that game too.
Speaker 10 But they're pretty much designed to go win-loss, win-loss, win-loss with a couple back-to-back wins sprinkled in.
Speaker 54 Yeah.
Speaker 67 Yeah.
Speaker 32 It's torturous Brown season because when they when they're defense playing well and Deshaun is back and looks okay, it's like, wow, this could be a playoff team, like a very good team.
Speaker 100 And then whenever they have that moment, like a catastrophic injury happens to one of their best players and they go fall back down to earth, they're like, here's some P.J.
Speaker 21 Walker.
Speaker 9 Yeah. Yeah, it's tough.
Speaker 10
It's very tough. If you're the Cardinals now and you got Kyler coming back.
Yeah. Do you think Kyler really
Speaker 10 wants to be back?
Speaker 80 Well, the Cardinals are really, really bad.
Speaker 7 They've lost four out of the last five games by double digits, and the only one they didn't was that Ravens game where they snuck in the back door.
Speaker 58 They're really, really bad, but I think Kyler might be playing for his job.
Speaker 10 I think he is. He's playing for a contract.
Speaker 10 He's playing for a job.
Speaker 54 He's playing for his job with the Arizona Cardinals, which you could make the argument he doesn't want that job anymore.
Speaker 10 I think he's playing for a job in terms of a contract, like a starting caliber contract.
Speaker 41 But anyone, he just signed one.
Speaker 10 Well, what's his extension?
Speaker 43 Didn't he sign one?
Speaker 40 Remember the whole video game?
Speaker 10
Yeah, the whole video game thing. But what's their out on that? Let's see.
Because NFL contracts aren't real. No, of course.
But usually for a quarterback, two to three years is probably very real.
Speaker 15 He's potential out is not till 2028.
Speaker 26 Okay. Then he, yeah, he is playing for a contract.
Speaker 16 Six years, $219 million.
Speaker 18 I don't know.
Speaker 15 Five years, $230 million contracts.
Speaker 10 I completely forgot about that contract extension.
Speaker 56 So he's not playing for a contract, but I do think he is playing for his job on the Arizona Cardinals because if he comes back, doesn't play well, they have the number one pick.
Speaker 10 We've seen it before. And they'll trade it.
Speaker 18 They moved on from Josh Rosen after one year.
Speaker 20 Obviously, Kylie Murray is a way better than Josh Rosen, but it's not crazy to think they'd be like, all right, let's draft Caleb Williams and trade Kyler Murray somewhere.
Speaker 21 Or Drake May.
Speaker 94 But the question is,
Speaker 90 if you're Kyler Murray, do you want your job on the Cardinals?
Speaker 54 I don't know.
Speaker 102 I think I'd want my job somewhere else.
Speaker 10 That's what I'm saying. Like, if you're Kyler Murray, do you want to come back and play right now?
Speaker 10 I probably wouldn't.
Speaker 39 But he's...
Speaker 103 Wait, can they
Speaker 10 look into his screen time that he's been doing on his iPad? I think that's well, he's been hurt.
Speaker 15 Well, so if he doesn't come back, if he's not activated fully, I don't think, I think that's it for the season.
Speaker 119 Yeah. That'd be weird.
Speaker 59 But he has too much pride.
Speaker 10 Let's think about it from the perspective of if the Cardinals truly believe that Kyler Murray is their future guy, which I don't think that they necessarily totally believe that right now.
Speaker 53 Correct.
Speaker 10 But if they did, would you want Kyler Murray as the Cardinals to come back and risk injury in a season that's already gone?
Speaker 10 You probably wouldn't, right? But Kyler Murray,
Speaker 10 he doesn't want to come back and play because he probably doesn't want to get injured and risk his chances of being a sort of quarterback for not the Cardinals.
Speaker 54 I think football players want to play football.
Speaker 10 Is he a football player? I think he's a football player. Is he a baseball player?
Speaker 108 That's a good question.
Speaker 20 If Kyler Murray comes back, I think the Cardinals can win a couple games.
Speaker 10 See how confident that knee is.
Speaker 55 Yeah.
Speaker 24 Yeah, it's a mess, though.
Speaker 102 It is.
Speaker 10
Either way, it's a mess. It's a mess.
It's a mess.
Speaker 117 And
Speaker 56 I actually feel bad for Jonathan Gannon because it's a mess.
Speaker 10 I think Jonathan Gannon is actually doing the perfect job in what they wanted him to do.
Speaker 102 Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 10 Because
Speaker 10 knowing that Kyler was going to be out until November at the start of the season, they are in full-on tank mode.
Speaker 10 And you got, and again, you got to live off that Cowboys win for like a month and a half.
Speaker 7 Yeah, it's great.
Speaker 15 Everyone's like, man, the Cardinals are frisky.
Speaker 10 Yeah, you got an entire Monday's worth of Skip Bayless being super, super pissed off at the Cowboys because of you.
Speaker 102 Yeah.
Speaker 20 That's worth anything. Yep.
Speaker 12 Okay, next.
Speaker 32 Last game of the early slates.
Speaker 56 Saints 24, Bears, 17.
Speaker 15 We don't have to spend a lot of time on this.
Speaker 32 I would just say that kind of pathetic that the Saints only won by seven when they had the Bears turn the ball over five times.
Speaker 10 I actually agree with you because I don't think I've ever seen a team run more plays in the fourth quarter, like deep inside their opponent's territory, and not score points than the Saints did today.
Speaker 67
Kind of pathetic. Kind of pathetic.
Yeah.
Speaker 80 The Bears had five turnovers.
Speaker 62 They missed.
Speaker 31 They doinked a kick, and they only lost by seven.
Speaker 67 Yeah. Kind of pathetic.
Speaker 4 And also, I don't think Derek Carr got sacked.
Speaker 67 Kind of pathetic.
Speaker 10
That is pretty pathetic. This was a Taysom Hill game, though.
Taysom was one for one passing, three yards and a touchdown. He had 11 carries for 52 yards.
Speaker 10
And as we know about Taysom Hill, I think when he carries the ball seven times in a game, they're 18 and one. Yeah.
The Saints are.
Speaker 10
And then he had four receptions for 16 yards and a touchdown. So this was, they built the entire offense out of Taysom Hill today, which is always great to watch.
It does work.
Speaker 10 I still don't know how the Saints didn't blow out the Bears.
Speaker 10 It seemed like they should be winning by like 20 points for the entire fourth quarter.
Speaker 85 Well, Tyson Pagent was really good if you only do the first three quarters.
Speaker 16 Yep.
Speaker 6 He was 15 for 19, 201 yards, two TDs, and a pick.
Speaker 40 Yeah.
Speaker 10 You can hang the banner too, big cat.
Speaker 75 Fourth quarter, he was three for 11, 19 yards, two picks.
Speaker 10 Yeah, it was bad. Fourth quarter.
Speaker 10 Listen, had some really bad interceptions.
Speaker 88 Maybe you didn't know the game was four quarters.
Speaker 10 But you can hang the banner. You extended Montez Sweat.
Speaker 19 Yeah, which, okay, real quick.
Speaker 97 I understand the Bears are a joke.
Speaker 101 I make fun of the Bears more than anyone.
Speaker 71 They're a joke of a franchise.
Speaker 83 They make like terrible mistakes at every turn.
Speaker 44 There are moments where I have to push back because people just like, it's free clicks to dunk on the Bears.
Speaker 72 And the amount of people that move the goalposts with Montez Sweat, where Montez Sweat said one thing when they asked him, have you thought about your extension?
Speaker 33 He's like, I haven't even found a house to build or a house to sleep in yet.
Speaker 70 And everyone was like, ha, they're not going to re-sign them.
Speaker 82 Like, the whole internet did this and dunked on the Bears.
Speaker 97 And then what happens a day later, they re-sign him to exactly what we thought was going to happen.
Speaker 18 And everyone just moves the goalpost to be like, overpay.
Speaker 103 Can't believe they did that.
Speaker 35 You can't, you can't do it.
Speaker 63 You can't have it every single way.
Speaker 32 You can't always be dunking on the Bears when you tell us that it's a bad move because he's not going to resign.
Speaker 49 And then the minute he resigns, being like, ha, you guys paid him too much.
Speaker 10 Yeah.
Speaker 10 It was bullshit.
Speaker 10 When I saw that he had the quote of like, oh, we haven't, I haven't thought about the extension, it just gave me a 5% chance of him doing the thing that I was talking about about you specifically.
Speaker 89 Well, I know. There's a lot of people.
Speaker 10 From day one, right when the trade happened, I told you they're going to re-sign him.
Speaker 10 This would be the worst move in the history of football if they signed him as a rental for a team that's not going to do anything this year and then paid a second-round pick for him and then lost him in free agency.
Speaker 10 That's a level of incompetence that I don't think any franchise is capable of. But people,
Speaker 10 it's I was just hoping that he would use the Bears for like seven weeks and then be like, you know what? I'm a commander at heart. I'm going to re-sign with the commanders.
Speaker 5 And I get it. I get it.
Speaker 80 The Bears are easy clicks.
Speaker 18 They're easy to make fun of. I make fun of them a lot, but there definitely are points in time where I have to be like, shut up, everyone.
Speaker 20 Like,
Speaker 44 you can't just keep dunking on the Bears when they actually make good moves for the long term.
Speaker 20 And you just have to find a way to change the narrative to be like, huh, the Bears suck.
Speaker 93 The Bears do suck, but this was a good move.
Speaker 110 They finally got a defensive player that they needed desperately because we don't have when you have a really bad team, you need to upgrade every position.
Speaker 86 So they upgraded a position.
Speaker 10 Yeah, and he's good. And he's a great player.
Speaker 31 And signed Jalen Johnson next, and the Bears still stink.
Speaker 99 And guess what?
Speaker 6 America, you get to watch the Bears versus Panthers on Thursday night.
Speaker 10 That's a real test.
Speaker 10 Between that and the Germany game on Sunday.
Speaker 80 It's a must-win for the Bears.
Speaker 19 No, it is.
Speaker 2 Yeah, because we have the Panthers pick. Oh, yeah.
Speaker 10 You have to win.
Speaker 10 You have to win. It's a must-win.
Speaker 10 Update on the Saints coin. I think that now is officially the time where we should start respecting the Saints coin because it's 9-0.
Speaker 10
So the Saints coin had this as a win. They did the thing where they flip a coin for every game on the schedule.
It hasn't lost yet. And then they have next weekend the Vikings as a win.
Speaker 10 This Saints coin, I think, could be legit.
Speaker 86 Yeah, it could be legit.
Speaker 108 We're watching it.
Speaker 4 Last thing. I'm just going to say this real quick.
Speaker 7 I'm not, I think Ryan Poles has made some mistakes.
Speaker 17 Eberflues, Chase Claypool.
Speaker 40 But
Speaker 20 Montez Sweat was a smart move, and you have to just admit that him getting DJ Moore and the Carolina Panthers first-round pick was a great fucking haul.
Speaker 40 Yeah.
Speaker 45 Like, people will say that he's incompetent.
Speaker 100 You can't just pretend those two things didn't happen.
Speaker 26 I'm just going to get you ready.
Speaker 59 And Darnell writes very good.
Speaker 10
I'm going to get you ready for the counter-argument to that, big cat. Go ahead.
Counter-argument to that.
Speaker 60 Oh, they're going to screw up the picks.
Speaker 82 They have more picks.
Speaker 53 Oh, that's usually what people say.
Speaker 10 That's a good counter-argument. Yeah, it is.
Speaker 40 It is.
Speaker 6 It's fair, and it's probably true.
Speaker 10 Would C.J. Stroud have been available with that pick?
Speaker 63 Well, I mean, I don't know.
Speaker 81 You can't.
Speaker 35 I'm getting you ready. I'm getting you ready.
Speaker 63 No, I know. I know.
Speaker 85 People will start saying that. Oh, you could have taken C.J.
Speaker 24 Stroud.
Speaker 93 I don't know.
Speaker 115 You had to keep, like, if Justin Fields, I don't,
Speaker 80 that one is a little bit of a stretch to me.
Speaker 42 Do the Patrick Mahomes all you want because that's fair.
Speaker 45 But that one's a little bit of a stretch.
Speaker 10 Because in reality, I don't think that the Bears were going to give up on Justin Fields at that point. Right.
Speaker 59 And also, the plan was, like, if Justin Fields ended up being the guy,
Speaker 43 everything, the whole table was set.
Speaker 44 Like, because then you had two picks and a franchise quarterback.
Speaker 28 So that's worth trying to take that risk.
Speaker 10 Yeah, they got a good haul. They definitely did.
Speaker 59 C.J.
Speaker 102 Stroud probably would have been terrible with the Bears because everyone's terrible with the Bears.
Speaker 4 I can say that the Bears suck.
Speaker 127 You just can't.
Speaker 10 Shout out to Dennis Allen because he has five wins now. Do you know
Speaker 10
what his previous record was in terms of his fastest time to five wins in the season? He had to be like week 13. Week 15.
Okay. It was week 15.
He's the worst coach ever. Dennis Allen is still bad.
Speaker 6 Again, Saints should be embarrassed that they only won by seven.
Speaker 10 But he figured out how to just make the entire offense Taysom Hill. Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 22 I wish we could put Tyson Bajant and Justin Fields into the same quarterback and just make it one.
Speaker 10 You want to combine the right parts, though.
Speaker 12 I want to combine Tyson Bagent's.
Speaker 97 His tattoos? No, his
Speaker 25 decisiveness and like, I'm going to throw the football and then maybe give him Justin Fields arm strength and running ability.
Speaker 10 Justin Fields arm strength, but with...
Speaker 10
Tyson Bajant's dad, the arm wrestler. Yes.
To have like a super strong arm.
Speaker 40 Yeah.
Speaker 10 Yes.
Speaker 32 Because Tyson Tyson Bajan, he sees something and he's like, I'm going to throw it here.
Speaker 101 And it doesn't always work because he doesn't really have that strong of an arm.
Speaker 2 But he sees and he throws it.
Speaker 10 I think Tyson Bajan has made himself a lot of money in these past couple weeks because he hasn't played bad enough to be like, oh, that guy can't be a backup quarterback.
Speaker 10 He has established himself as...
Speaker 10 The only thing is the tattoos.
Speaker 10 He might have too many tattoos and the fourth quarter.
Speaker 10
Too much moxie. 19 yards.
I mean, if you're looking for a backup quarterback,
Speaker 10 you're going to get a guy that's going to throw. That's kind of, it's par of the course for the backup guy.
Speaker 102 Yeah.
Speaker 10 Yeah, he's a gunsport. But I think he's made himself some money and might have a decent career as a backup quarterback.
Speaker 35 Maybe.
Speaker 10
Now, Hank, as to your mid-off point, the NFC South is a mid-off. Yep.
It is the biggest mid-off in the history of men.
Speaker 89 I think the Saints are always kind of the.
Speaker 125 Yeah.
Speaker 69 I think the Saints are the best team, but I don't know.
Speaker 10 Yeah.
Speaker 22 I struggled to beat the Bears when they got five turnovers.
Speaker 10 I can be convinced otherwise. I can be talked into any team that's not the Panthers from that division on a week-by-week basis.
Speaker 59 I would actually, I got to look that up.
Speaker 42 Maybe, Jake, you can look that up for me for tomorrow.
Speaker 15 What is the closest score, final score, when a team had the turnover margin won by five?
Speaker 90 Because that is pretty remarkable.
Speaker 89 Yeah.
Speaker 53 5-0,
Speaker 92 and they only lost by seven.
Speaker 35 Okay, we'll do the afternoon games.
Speaker 15 We're going to take one more break and we'll finish up with the afternoon games.
Speaker 10 Whether I'm hosting game day at my place or taking my talents to the tailgate, Boarshead is my go-to for a spread that's as exciting as the game itself. Their platters are a hit every time.
Speaker 10 They've got everything you need to keep your guests coming back for more. And if you want to take it up a notch, grab a few dips.
Speaker 10 My personal favorite, the blazing buffalo chicken, hummus, or even one of their charcuterie collections for game-changing flavor.
Speaker 10 Boarshead helps me elevate my entertaining every time, whether it's for a tailgate or a homegating celebration.
Speaker 10 To upgrade your spread, visit your local Boarshead deli for platter options or build your own to make it perfect for your crowd. Boarshead, committed to craft since 1905.
Speaker 56 Okay, afternoon games. Raiders 30, Giants 6.
Speaker 56 The big story before this game was Jay Glazer's report that the final days of Josh McDaniels went exactly how you expected the final days of Josh McDaniels to go.
Speaker 126 They had a team meeting.
Speaker 83 All the players voiced how much they hated Josh McDaniels.
Speaker 83 Then Josh McDaniels, sensing that he was losing the room, asked Antonio Pierce to stand in front of the locker room and kind of rally the guys.
Speaker 70 He talked about culture.
Speaker 3 He talked about his Giants teams winning Super Bowls.
Speaker 63 He talked about his Giants team beating the Patriots in the Super Bowl, which were coached by Josh McDaniels.
Speaker 18 And then afterward, Josh McDaniels says,
Speaker 110 don't talk about the Patriots.
Speaker 117 And
Speaker 15 that's just the perfect Josh McDaniels.
Speaker 45 I don't know if it's true.
Speaker 56 I would assume it is because Jay Glazer, but Josh McDaniels being that butthurt about a guy trying to rally the troops and being like, don't talk about the Patriots like that.
Speaker 10 For another coach, you might think that he was like joking, being like, hey, why you got to come at me like that? With Josh McDaniels, I believe it. I'll believe any story.
Speaker 10 It's like the Urban Meyer Jaguar situation when there's a story written in six months in the athletic and it talks about all the stuff that went wrong in Vegas. I'm going to eat that shit up.
Speaker 10 It's going to be great. You could say anything, and I will 100% believe that Josh McDaniels actually did it and was responsible for it in Las Vegas.
Speaker 18 Yes, yes, 100%.
Speaker 18 So
Speaker 58 the bounce back happened because the Raiders, when you lose, when you fire a guy like Josh McDaniels, every team should actually hire Josh McDaniels for a game just so you can fire him because I bet you the team would perform that much better.
Speaker 56 You could tell just like right off the jump, the Giants stink, but the Raiders were playing with a lot more purpose, like a lot more energy.
Speaker 17 You could feel it.
Speaker 67 And they completely killed the Giants.
Speaker 100 Obviously, Daniel Jones gets hurt again, which sucks.
Speaker 32 And Tommy DeVito comes in, and he threw back-to-back interceptions on back-to-back passes.
Speaker 85 But he did score a touchdown.
Speaker 59 He looked better. He did score a touchdown.
Speaker 24 He went 15 for 20 for 175 yards.
Speaker 10 He looked better in the second half. When he first got in, it seemed like it was going to be another like negative two net passing yards there for old Tommy D, for old TD.
Speaker 10 The Raiders,
Speaker 10
I like the bounce back with Antonio Pierce. He's a good interim coach.
I don't know if his interim magic is going to carry over because he was like super conservative. He wasn't like
Speaker 10
animated enough for my liking for an interim coach on the sidelines. I think the Raiders should get a new interim coach every single week for the rest of the season.
I like that.
Speaker 10 I think they should bring in anyone that's ever been.
Speaker 10
Bring Basace back. Will Compton.
Will Compton, bring the boy in. Rob Ryan should get a chance to be an interim coach for them.
Coach O. Coach O,
Speaker 10
a Ouija board that has a connection to Al Davis. Let's just like throw it deep to our fast guy.
Tom Cable. Yep.
Bring back all these guys, all the legends of the game.
Speaker 10
Dan Campbell will probably do it on their buy. Oh, it's this week.
Dan Campbell will probably do it. Yeah.
He probably wouldn't give a shit.
Speaker 10 Like, bring in all the interim coach all-stars and get one week of emotion out of them.
Speaker 102 John Gruden? Oh, Gruden.
Speaker 24 Maybe John Gruden or the mustache?
Speaker 10 Yeah, Gruden would be awesome.
Speaker 97 Yeah, that would be sick.
Speaker 10 Do the Ask Madden play calling for one week? Have John Madden coach your team?
Speaker 9 Yeah.
Speaker 20 Yeah, virtual John Madden to actually figure out how to coach your team.
Speaker 90 Art Schell, you could bring back.
Speaker 10 AI John Madden, except it's just
Speaker 10 Mark Davis dressed up as John Madden on the subject. I would just like you, Jackson.
Speaker 10 No, I wouldn't.
Speaker 10
I don't wish that upon any man. Art Schell.
Yeah,
Speaker 53 yeah, yeah.
Speaker 55 Lane Kiffen? Yeah.
Speaker 100 Once the olemis season's over, why not?
Speaker 97 I do think Antonio Pierce was conservative, but when Tommy DeVito comes in the game,
Speaker 94 you can be as conservative as you want.
Speaker 10 You go into just
Speaker 112 when Tommy DeVito came in the game, it was in the middle of the first quarter.
Speaker 15 I live bet the Giants under 12 and a half points, which was a thrill.
Speaker 19 It's like one big play and I'm fucked.
Speaker 34 Yeah.
Speaker 3 And I was never really fucked.
Speaker 10 In situations like that, I feel for Saquon Barkley. That's just like, well, I'm just going to, they're just going to hand me the ball repeatedly, repeatedly.
Speaker 10
The Raiders had not scored 21 points in a game all season. In the first half, they scored 21 points.
In the first half, offensive genius Antonio Pierce really shows up Josh McDaniels.
Speaker 19 I love it.
Speaker 4 Is Aiden O'Connell the best Aiden athlete ever in American sports?
Speaker 10 I'm trying to think of other Aiden's.
Speaker 39 He's the best Aiden quarterback ever.
Speaker 10 I'm just going to type in to Google Aiden and see what auto correct is.
Speaker 117 I think he's the only Aiden quarterback ever.
Speaker 109 I looked that up.
Speaker 10 Aiden Fauci.
Speaker 35 I mean, there's got... Oh,
Speaker 53 don't say that. We'll leave that.
Speaker 10 Aiden Hutchinson.
Speaker 22 Aiden Hutchinson.
Speaker 56 Yeah, he's probably.
Speaker 39 I think he might be.
Speaker 40 Yeah.
Speaker 43 He's the only Aiden quarterback I could find.
Speaker 10
I think so. So he might be the best.
I'm just going to say NFL players named Aiden
Speaker 10 players.
Speaker 92 Aiden Hutchinson is a good answer.
Speaker 15 I think he's number one Aiden right now.
Speaker 49 I think we might get a bunch of Aiden's coming up.
Speaker 126 Yeah, it feels like a name.
Speaker 10 They're going to be like the Jalens
Speaker 10 10 years from now. Yeah, I think that's going to happen.
Speaker 25 But so he was the first.
Speaker 10 He was the first. He's a groundbreaker.
Speaker 26 Yeah.
Speaker 55 He broke the Aiden barrier. He did.
Speaker 86 But yeah, the Raiders.
Speaker 49 They're so, they were feeling it like the change so much because it really does.
Speaker 15 It probably is the greatest feeling in the world to have Josh McDaniels not in your life anymore.
Speaker 32 By every account, he's just a terrible person to be around.
Speaker 71 There was a report, there was a picture that went viral.
Speaker 49 It was an angle of Mark Davis walking on the field, and someone had reported that his bowl cut was gone.
Speaker 112 Thank God it's not.
Speaker 10 No, it's just creeping further back.
Speaker 19 It was the side, yeah.
Speaker 69 But like, that was, that was the vibes going into this game for the Raiders.
Speaker 110 Like,
Speaker 15 they mean business to such a level that Mark Davis changes hair.
Speaker 10 Yeah, I don't think that's ever going to happen. No, no.
Speaker 26 I actually went, I saw it, and I got so heartbroken that I went trying to find more pictures.
Speaker 6 I was like, thank God.
Speaker 111 Well, he still hasn't.
Speaker 10
The only way that would be believable is because he's got a nice new girlfriend. She looks lovely.
She's always in his box. And if she convinced him to come up with her.
Speaker 92 She's an Australian singer, right?
Speaker 10 She's a very
Speaker 9 famous in her own right. Yep.
Speaker 10 She's a model. She's got, was it VSCO? Is that what's in her profile, Hank? Is that what the kids have? You hit that up, Hank?
Speaker 24 Yep.
Speaker 10 Yeah.
Speaker 10 Maybe a girl could convince him, but I still think that Mark Davis is too strong.
Speaker 89 I don't even think so.
Speaker 119 He'd just be like, all right, you're not for me.
Speaker 10 These hoes can't change me.
Speaker 110 Listen, I'm a package deal.
Speaker 9 The bull cut comes with the package.
Speaker 10 It's part of his allure. It is.
Speaker 101 He's mysterious.
Speaker 10 If you were to date a guy like that, I don't think that the bull cut would be the thing that would be a deal breaker.
Speaker 90 Right. And it's also like,
Speaker 15 when you see Mark Davis and he has a lot of money, I know he doesn't have a lot lot of money, but he has a lot of money because he owns the Raiders, which he might not be able to own because he might not be able to pay the taxes.
Speaker 110 That's a reference.
Speaker 10 He doesn't have enough money. Yeah, he does have enough money.
Speaker 67 He has money
Speaker 103 theoretically.
Speaker 70 He owns a professional, an NFL team.
Speaker 97 He theoretically has a lot of money.
Speaker 57 And then he has that haircut.
Speaker 45 You're like, this guy's a freak.
Speaker 10 He knows something.
Speaker 61 He's probably the craziest.
Speaker 10 His dresses in all white.
Speaker 10
He peacocks. That's what he does.
Right.
Speaker 31 Because it makes no sense. No.
Speaker 90 A man with that money, theoretically, should get a better haircut, but he doesn't.
Speaker 7 And that's why he's so alluring.
Speaker 106 Okay, yeah, that's our recap of the game.
Speaker 91 Colts 27, Panthers 13.
Speaker 100 The Panthers might be the saddest organization in the NFL right now.
Speaker 10 Okay, so I was sitting down thinking about this because I think if we do the bleakest future draft all over again right now,
Speaker 10 I think the Panthers are number one because you've got you just spent a number one overall pick on a quarterback that who knows if he's going to be good or not but at this moment you can't help but just focus all your attention on houston you want cj stroud to start sucking immediately if you're a panthers fan you yeah you have the route wrong guy will
Speaker 10 devastate you as someone who's done that many times before wrong guy will devastate you and you paid a first-round pick and dj moore for it yeah and uh you don't really like your owner don't care for him too much micromanager micromanager frank Reich is your head coach, and you just hired him, so you're probably not going to fire him this year.
Speaker 10 It's rare, but it has happened before where you fire a guy after one year.
Speaker 10 You're not too happy with the state of affairs in Charlotte right now. Yeah.
Speaker 2 Price Young had three picks, two pick sixes.
Speaker 100 Kenny Moore II had both the pick sixes, which is awesome.
Speaker 10
And then Jim Ursa stunted on you after the game. Video of the year from Mr.
Ursay. Incredible.
Singing along, dancing along to Meek Mill in the locker room. That was
Speaker 10 all time. Yeah.
Speaker 10 i i can't stop watching it mr ursay is the people's owner love him or hate him uh he's gonna put out content for you yeah and uh this this was an all-time video from him also the colts i'm happy they won because uh they keep their frisky tag yeah if you're three and six it's hard to be frisky if you're four and five you are frisky yeah and minshe won is on the road is in charlotte yeah he didn't light it up he didn't but it doesn't went on the road he didn't turn the ball over yeah which was huge but yeah they the their defense, the two pick sixes, the first one, there was like 40 seconds left in the first half, right?
Speaker 127 And he threw a pick six. That was tough.
Speaker 94
Yeah. That was tough.
So, yeah,
Speaker 3 I think Panthers fans might have it the worst right now.
Speaker 10 It's bad.
Speaker 44 You don't even get to do the, we can't wait for the draft.
Speaker 10 Yeah, it's bad when Jim Ursa is just dropping his ass on you after the game.
Speaker 15 Wrong guy.
Speaker 116 Every time CJ Stroud plays well, it's a again, any Panthers fans want to reach out.
Speaker 15 I've been through it.
Speaker 116 I can talk you through it.
Speaker 116 When C.J. Stroud wins like two Super Bowls and goes to six, seven straight AFC championship games, and you're already one past Bryce Young on another guy that's not good,
Speaker 26 we can talk.
Speaker 10
You can blame Tepper. You can blame David Tepper taking him out for dinner, being impressed with his order of the scallops.
That's when he decided that it was going to be Bryce Young.
Speaker 39 When you trade up, you got to get the right guy.
Speaker 75 Yep.
Speaker 23 Again, speaking from experience, you got to get the right guy.
Speaker 81 You got to get the right guy. All right.
Speaker 19 Last game.
Speaker 90 Cowboys, 28.
Speaker 101 Eagles, 23.
Speaker 56 Eagles, 7-1.
Speaker 90 8-1.
Speaker 100 There it is, Max.
Speaker 90 8-1.
Speaker 25 Cowboys blew this game 10 different ways, but the Eagles win.
Speaker 17 Escape?
Speaker 1 It felt like an escape game.
Speaker 126 That's fine. Yeah, escape for sure.
Speaker 126 I'm willing to admit escape.
Speaker 63 Like, I weirdly watched this game.
Speaker 67 I had the Eagles.
Speaker 15 I was happy they covered, but I also walked away being like, maybe the Cowboys are for real.
Speaker 3 Because they actually played well offensively.
Speaker 67 Like, Dak had a good game.
Speaker 20 If he hadn't stepped out on that two-point conversion,
Speaker 15 that was tough.
Speaker 19 But, yeah, like, I didn't think that the...
Speaker 44 I'm not down on the Cowboys after that game, which is weird to say.
Speaker 5 Because the Cowboys feels like they haven't won one of those games in a while.
Speaker 10 It's also the perfect Dak game because he played so well. He played pretty well.
Speaker 78 No, he played very well.
Speaker 58 He was 29, 44, 374, three touchdowns.
Speaker 10 Yeah, he played pretty well.
Speaker 10
And then he does the one thing that gives everybody all the ammo that they need to be like, look at Dak Prescott. He can't win a big game.
Yeah. Because he has this brain fart and steps out of bounds.
Speaker 10 I would have to go back to the ball.
Speaker 23 The delay step out of bounds is very bad.
Speaker 113 Yeah, the delay game is bad.
Speaker 86 But, Max, so you
Speaker 44 the reason why I say survived is because
Speaker 45 the Cowboys felt like everyone was open all day.
Speaker 126 Yeah, secondary is a problem. Secondary is a problem.
Speaker 10 A lot of injuries.
Speaker 23 Big, big problem.
Speaker 126 But
Speaker 126 the offense is still really good.
Speaker 126 They went into a little bit of
Speaker 126 let's not lose instead of let's win most of the time.
Speaker 56 Yeah, they went up 11 in the second half, and it was like they kind of passed.
Speaker 126
It was like, let's run the football and let's just keep trying. Because the Eagles are, you say this all the time.
The Eagles are very good at running the football and like when they're up
Speaker 126
and eating clock and just the game goes to nowhere. It wasn't working.
That wasn't happening and they weren't adjusting.
Speaker 126 They were still trying to play like that same style of football of like, let's just eat a ton of clock this drive, eat a ton of clock this drive. And then they just kept getting three and outs.
Speaker 126
They had bad field position because of stops. So you can't be like too upset about those.
But the secondary is a problem. The offense is not.
Eagles are eight and one and we just beat the Cowboys.
Speaker 1 Here's a nice.
Speaker 90 Because, yeah, you're 8-1.
Speaker 80 You're top of the NFC.
Speaker 18 But a little bit of a silver lining.
Speaker 44 I think when the Eagles do lose in the playoffs in devastating fashion, you'll at least be like, I kind of saw this one coming.
Speaker 23 There's a lot.
Speaker 126 Teams get hot at different times. And right now we're 8-1, and the Eagles are not hot.
Speaker 10
Right. I think that's true.
That's a good assessment.
Speaker 82 That's true.
Speaker 67 You're 8-1, and you haven't even peaked yet.
Speaker 126 Jalen Hurts is obviously playing
Speaker 126
hurt. I wouldn't say injured.
I would say he's hurt.
Speaker 10 So he doesn't or just look like himself.
Speaker 126 He's playing, like, he's not running. He's not running like himself right now.
Speaker 10 He took a shot to his knee today that I was amazed he wasn't injured from. He's a tough motherfucker.
Speaker 40 He's very tough as fuck. Yeah.
Speaker 126 And
Speaker 126 we have a buy next week and then go beat the Chiefs on Monday Night Football. Ooh, that's going to be a good thing.
Speaker 10 Is the buy coming to you at a good time?
Speaker 126 Couldn't be coming at a better time.
Speaker 10 I think it's a perfect time. You guys are 1-0 against the buy this year.
Speaker 17 Yeah, it's a huge, huge.
Speaker 126 Next week, the Eagles win. They win with a bye.
Speaker 10 Buy should be player of the week for them.
Speaker 102 Yeah, for sure.
Speaker 106 Where's the game against the Chiefs?
Speaker 40 I think it's. Arrowhead.
Speaker 54 Oh.
Speaker 89 Tough place to play.
Speaker 126 Yeah, no, that's going to be a tough game.
Speaker 10 That's a measuring stick game. Tough place to play.
Speaker 98 Yeah.
Speaker 10 I wish we could do whose line is it anyway.
Speaker 102 Although they're on a bye too next week, so so maybe. Oh, let's see.
Speaker 94 Can we do whose line is it anyway?
Speaker 10 I'm going to say Chiefs.
Speaker 82 You probably can.
Speaker 10 Chiefs two and a half.
Speaker 71 I would say Chiefs four.
Speaker 62 I would say Chiefs three and a half.
Speaker 15 And it's going to get bet down to three.
Speaker 126 I would say
Speaker 73 maybe three. One and a half.
Speaker 15 Three is my final answer. Do you have it?
Speaker 10 Do we know how to look? I'm looking, but it's not immediately available.
Speaker 10 Shout out Jerry Jones, by the way.
Speaker 24 Next week's schedule is not looking good.
Speaker 10 Jerry Jones went back to the the well and after the Rangers won a World Series, he referred to World Series as being it's the absolute glory hole to have that elusive win to be the champion.
Speaker 10 Jerry, like two years ago, was like, I want me some glory hole.
Speaker 10 Jerry knows exactly what a glory hole is, by the way, but his PR people had to come in and clean it up and be like, no, he's not talking about
Speaker 10 sticking your dick through a hole in a bathroom stall. He's just talking about
Speaker 103 having a window.
Speaker 10
That's what he's talking about. He's window.
No, Jerry Jones knows exactly what a glory hole is. He is a big glory hole guy.
Speaker 54 Huge glory hole guy.
Speaker 18 Guys, next week,
Speaker 95 we're going to have to.
Speaker 94 What do you got, Jake? Oh, did you someone have the line?
Speaker 10 I don't see anything official, but some people on Twitter are saying Chiefs minus three, but nothing official. Okay.
Speaker 39 Next week,
Speaker 102 we're going to struggle.
Speaker 10 We're going to be fine.
Speaker 72 We're going to find a way.
Speaker 90 But it just dawned on me: the Chiefs, Eagles, and Dolphins are on a pie.
Speaker 116 Those are three teams that are fun to watch.
Speaker 10 Let's see. We got
Speaker 32 the best game is Niners Jags.
Speaker 10 Browns, Ravens, not bad.
Speaker 40 Yeah.
Speaker 10 Yeah, but it's a good split. We got morning and then 6-4.
Speaker 10 Yeah.
Speaker 102 Yeah, that's true.
Speaker 15 Lions Chargers would be fun.
Speaker 43 We'll have fun no matter what.
Speaker 94 We always do.
Speaker 31 Max,
Speaker 4 any comments on G-String gate?
Speaker 126 I don't know if that could have been Angles.
Speaker 95 If people missed it, Eagles coach kind of had to jump out of the way of a play, and his pants started to creep down a little bit, and it looked like he was wearing a red G-string.
Speaker 126 You know, I'm not going to knock a guy's superstition sometimes. Oh, superstition.
Speaker 10 Or it might be like a turnover chain thing.
Speaker 90 Yeah.
Speaker 10 Where you get to wear that if you're the best coach in the building that week.
Speaker 126 Also, Dallas Goddard broke his arm.
Speaker 53 Is that officially broke his arm?
Speaker 94 So better than a sprain?
Speaker 29 Yeah.
Speaker 71 Can you sprain your forearm?
Speaker 23 Oh, yeah. You can sprain anything.
Speaker 100 Sprain anything, dude.
Speaker 53 Sure.
Speaker 40 I don't know if that's.
Speaker 26 So, how long is he out for?
Speaker 126 It didn't say.
Speaker 10 It was like
Speaker 10
expected to be. I'm going to guess six weeks.
Better than a sprain.
Speaker 12 Tomorrow, Monday. Better than a sprain.
Speaker 15 Oh, if he's having an MRI, he might also have a sprain.
Speaker 40 That might be a double whammy.
Speaker 15 Broke and a sprained?
Speaker 73 Yeah. I don't know.
Speaker 40 I don't know the answer to that question.
Speaker 50 Bye week's coming at a great time.
Speaker 126 Bye week's coming at a great time.
Speaker 82 Get the boys healthy.
Speaker 58 Get the boys rested.
Speaker 126 And you're 8-1.
Speaker 81 Yeah.
Speaker 126 You're up a game and a a half on the rest of the NFC because the Lions didn't play today.
Speaker 63 But you could lose.
Speaker 126
Yeah, anyone could lose. That's true.
Anyone could lose. The Chiefs just lost to the fucking Broncos.
Speaker 43 That's true.
Speaker 118 That's true.
Speaker 97 Would you say, where would you power rank the entire NFL, though?
Speaker 72 Would you say the Eagles are one?
Speaker 54 I wouldn't.
Speaker 102 I'd put the Chiefs one.
Speaker 126 The Chiefs just lost to the fucking Broncos.
Speaker 40 I know.
Speaker 23 I put Ravens. Patrick Mahomes was sick.
Speaker 10 Ravens won, Chiefs two.
Speaker 23 Jalen Hurts is playing while he once fucking left.
Speaker 69 Ravens two, Eagles three.
Speaker 126 Listen, you guys are so
Speaker 126 recency bias out the fucking ass.
Speaker 40 Yeah.
Speaker 65 No doubt.
Speaker 9 That's literally the NFL media.
Speaker 103 Well, that's literally this show.
Speaker 128 The Texans just lost to the Panthers last week.
Speaker 107 PFT just said the commanders are going to go to the fucking playoffs and Sam Howell's a top 12 quarterback. You're going to beat the Eagles.
Speaker 126 I'm talking about the man on the top 12 quarterback. Me and BFT were on the same play.
Speaker 36 I'm talking about right now.
Speaker 10 Listen, I will have no better ally in this whole Sam Howell thing than Max because Sam Howell has played like two of his best games.
Speaker 122 He's so good against the Eagles.
Speaker 23 So you're going to be in my hole. I want to see him in the playoffs.
Speaker 10
Max is in my hole. Yeah, you don't want to see us.
You don't want to see us, Max.
Speaker 23 Imagine
Speaker 10 what if Sam How beat you in the first round of the playoffs, Max. That would suck.
Speaker 126 I could see it happening, though.
Speaker 103 I do think the Eagles are very good.
Speaker 110 I just think that they are weirdish.
Speaker 10 They're not dominant. That's the thing.
Speaker 40 But
Speaker 10 their record's dominant.
Speaker 7 I don't know what weirdish.
Speaker 58 Weirdish is doing a lot of work for you.
Speaker 126 You You guys talk about each team and you're like, oh, this team hasn't beaten a good team. What have the Eagles not done?
Speaker 5 They're very good.
Speaker 126 What have they not done for you to not be sold on them?
Speaker 10 You lost the Jets.
Speaker 19 Okay.
Speaker 45 Everyone. You felt like it was.
Speaker 90 I felt like the Cowboys, if that game had gone five more minutes.
Speaker 126 You're like, we haven't beat good teams. We beat the Cowboys.
Speaker 23 No, I never said you didn't beat the Eastbounds.
Speaker 126 No, but that's what you said. No, but that's what you say about other teams.
Speaker 35 Right, but the Eagles have beaten good teams. Correct.
Speaker 126 Right.
Speaker 90 So what are you getting mad about?
Speaker 126 I don't know why you think that the Eagles are bad.
Speaker 59 I don't think they're bad.
Speaker 103 I think they're very good.
Speaker 91 Do you think that something's a little off?
Speaker 126 Jalen Hurts playing on one fucking leg.
Speaker 36 Okay.
Speaker 126 Do you think
Speaker 35 you're a PFT?
Speaker 126 The secondary PS.
Speaker 63 I think most Eagles fans would agree something just a little bit off.
Speaker 9 I think,
Speaker 35 you know what? Secondary. That's a good answer.
Speaker 10 Max, how about this?
Speaker 55 Easy Max is mad.
Speaker 74 So
Speaker 10 who has a bye week next week?
Speaker 58 The Eagles, Dolphins, Chiefs, Ramps.
Speaker 10 Okay, so
Speaker 10 I'm going to say that even if the Ravens beat the Browns next week, no, here's what I'll do.
Speaker 10 Next week after the bye, I think the bye is coming at a better time for the Eagles than it is for the Chiefs.
Speaker 10 I'm going to catapult the Eagles over the Chiefs after the bye week in my power rankings because I think the Eagles are going to do better on the bye week. That's good.
Speaker 10 Get healthier than the Chiefs will. The Chiefs are already good.
Speaker 56 It's going to be extended bye because they play Monday Night Football.
Speaker 10
Exactly. So the Chiefs are going to make, they're going to be fine with the bye week.
They'll still be great when they come back.
Speaker 10 Eagles are really going to use this bye week to springboard up my power rankings. Is that fair, Max?
Speaker 126 Sure. I mean, he's very upset.
Speaker 10
Yeah. You're in your feelings.
Why are you in your head?
Speaker 36 I'm not. I'm not.
Speaker 1 You gave the right answer. The secondary is the thing.
Speaker 55 You guys won.
Speaker 126 Yes, the Eagles won. Yeah.
Speaker 73 And you mean
Speaker 65 they lost.
Speaker 18 No, I just thought that, like, I was shocked with how easy the Cowboys were able to get first downs.
Speaker 28 At the end of the game, you were too. We were sitting next to each other.
Speaker 121 Like, you kept on screaming, everything's open.
Speaker 46 They're always open.
Speaker 10 You did say that they don't deserve to win this game.
Speaker 126 Well, then.
Speaker 48 You said that? He did.
Speaker 126 But then the Cowboys also didn't deserve to win the game.
Speaker 102 So
Speaker 77 no one deserved it.
Speaker 126 Yeah, I mean, they got back-to-back penalties.
Speaker 10 Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 10 I think, Max, it's because you had this game against the Cowboys where the Cowboys could have very easily, at least tied, potentially won the game if Dak didn't just step out of bounds on that
Speaker 10 scramble to the right. And also the games against the Commanders where they looked like they were, you know,
Speaker 10 at least deserving to be on the same field in the same conversation. Those two, or those three close wins that you had that didn't really feel like great wins, that's got you feeling a little bit.
Speaker 126 What about the Dolphins? Yeah,
Speaker 10 it was a great game.
Speaker 126 You were just talking about how good the Chiefs are because about how they played against the Dolphins.
Speaker 107 I think the Chiefs are good.
Speaker 51 The Chiefs lost the Broncos last week.
Speaker 85 I think the Chiefs are really good because they've won Super Bowls.
Speaker 10 Max, right now, you are a top three team in the NFL.
Speaker 28 I had you three.
Speaker 19 You want me to put you one? I'll put you one. No.
Speaker 10 No, wait till after the buy week.
Speaker 111 I'll put you one.
Speaker 19 I'm going to put you one.
Speaker 43 Juggernaut.
Speaker 10 The Eagles do have a gauntlet after the buy.
Speaker 40 She's right when I.
Speaker 10 The Eagles, Niners, Cowboys, Seahawks.
Speaker 58 I'm going to bet on the Eagles to win the Super Bowl after this stretch because they're going to lose a couple of these games.
Speaker 41 And that's fine, Max.
Speaker 126
That's fine. Yes, that's fine.
Like, if you lose.
Speaker 126 In Arrowhead on Monday Night Football, like, you're not...
Speaker 10 You're going to be like, oh, the Eagles stink when they're going to be.
Speaker 78 I thought it would be wrong of us to be like, damn, the Eagles, like, they crushed us.
Speaker 89 What if they beat the Chiefs?
Speaker 67 I actually think they would.
Speaker 59 Then I'll be like, the Eagles are the best team in football.
Speaker 10 I think they might beat the Chiefs.
Speaker 41 100%, I would say they're the best team in football.
Speaker 126 All right, fuck it. Whatever.
Speaker 62 Do you think it's fair that I have the Chiefs as the best team in football because they're the defending Super Bowl champs?
Speaker 10 Well, it's, I mean, who they play in the Super Bowl.
Speaker 89 That's true.
Speaker 54 They never beat a good team in the Super Bowl.
Speaker 31 End scene.
Speaker 82 That was great.
Speaker 65 You know what I love? You know what I love about Max?
Speaker 107
He's taking off his headphones. Here's what he turned off his headphones.
I have to go pee.
Speaker 50 They're eight and one.
Speaker 1 He took off their headphones.
Speaker 10 Here's what I love about Max is he is actually the voice of anyone that listens to the show and gets mad at us for not respecting their team enough. Right.
Speaker 10 Like, Max, of course, he's going to be mad because we're not respecting his team enough because he thinks he's an Eagles fan. They're 8-1.
Speaker 10
He's like, you guys should be saying they're the best team in football. Right.
We just,
Speaker 10 I don't think that they're the best team in football.
Speaker 53 There's a little bit off, and it's probably the secondary and Jalen Hurts also having a little bit of a gimpy leg.
Speaker 86 And I just wasn't going to walk away from the Eagles-Cowboys game being like, Eagles dominate that.
Speaker 102 You can't.
Speaker 117 Like, that was a good game.
Speaker 56 Eagles are the better team right now.
Speaker 91 I don't trust Dak in like a big moment.
Speaker 10
You know, we can say that I do trust Jalen Hurts. About that game is the Cowboys were one yard away, big cat.
They were one yard away.
Speaker 102 They were one yard away.
Speaker 10 I mean, that was a terrible last play they called.
Speaker 113 Also, Max is going to take a piss right now.
Speaker 81 The Eagles are really good.
Speaker 53 Yeah, they're very good.
Speaker 89 They're really fucking good.
Speaker 15 They're the best team in the NFC by far.
Speaker 10 Yeah, I would agree with that.
Speaker 15 I think the Niners have some big-time issues.
Speaker 75 If you want to talk issues defensively, the Niners have a lot of issues.
Speaker 10 Who are the other complete teams in the NFC? The Lions?
Speaker 53 The Lions, but I would also
Speaker 10 have raced by the Ravens.
Speaker 113 The Eagles are the best team in the NFC.
Speaker 92 It's not even a question in my mind. Yep.
Speaker 122 I agree with that.
Speaker 6 I wish Max could hear this.
Speaker 10 Except I can't wait till we beat them in the playoffs.
Speaker 10 Imagine how great that would be.
Speaker 53 It's never going to happen.
Speaker 77 I am going to bet the Eagles to win the Super Bowl after they lose a couple of these games because they do have a gauntlet.
Speaker 32 And I saw this before the season.
Speaker 15 I was like, 7-1 makes no sense. Let's wait till they lose a couple of these games.
Speaker 10 Max is going to hate that you bet on the Eagles.
Speaker 67 Yeah.
Speaker 12 All right, Max is back.
Speaker 90 Max, we just said a lot of things.
Speaker 10 So that's why I think they're so overrated, big cat. Right.
Speaker 126 I thought you said it was end scene. Also, the Eagles are 5-2-2 against the spread.
Speaker 37 Okay.
Speaker 96 So.
Speaker 10 Good.
Speaker 126 Above expectations of the spread. Yeah.
Speaker 10 They're better than Vegas.
Speaker 10
Max, you have a good team. Be happy with your good team.
I can't express that enough to you. Be happy that you have a good team.
Speaker 56 Some people are saying best team in the NFC.
Speaker 75 We're not.
Speaker 92 Some are.
Speaker 126 I don't know what that means. Okay.
Speaker 116 You'll figure it out when you listen back to the podcast.
Speaker 10 Do you listen when you upload?
Speaker 53 No.
Speaker 53 No chance.
Speaker 94 To the show? No chance.
Speaker 126 Yes, I go back and edit the show. Oh, yeah.
Speaker 54 Okay.
Speaker 75 Hank.

Speaker 77 Are the Bengals
Speaker 100 really fucking good? Because I think they are.
Speaker 62 Yes, they are.
Speaker 10 I would agree with that.
Speaker 53 I would like to see them put together maybe four quarters of offense, although they did last week,
Speaker 26 but they're really fucking good.
Speaker 10
The Bengals are for real. They got themselves into a hole at the start of the season.
They're out of the hole. Yeah.
Speaker 10
The Bengals, we can now say officially official out of the hole. Joe Burrow is moving around like he used to, he's using his feet.
He had a nasty cut on his finger tonight.
Speaker 102 Yeah.
Speaker 10
Finghazi, that thing was bleeding so bad. He was just sucking the blood out of it.
Um, they're really good. Yeah, they beat the Bills just like straight up, just kicked him in the teeth tonight.
Speaker 10 So, um, if you are a Bengals doubter, if you thought that what you saw in the first couple weeks is going to be an indication of the team, nope, nope, they're back.
Speaker 35 Yeah, and I think the bills are a perfectly middle-of-the-pack team.
Speaker 55 Yeah,
Speaker 106 I don't think they're very good.
Speaker 71 Yeah, they're not bad, They're just perfectly like, put them somewhere in that.
Speaker 109 Well, I think, I guess they could win the AFC East because they do have the win over the Dolphins.
Speaker 75 Yeah.
Speaker 102 But I don't know.
Speaker 4 But maybe they can figure it out defensively and become a team that no one wants to play in the playoffs, but I don't see it right now.
Speaker 10 I don't think that the Bills have at all this year at any point deserved of being like the juggernauts that we thought that they were at the start of the season.
Speaker 10 Right now, they're just not a very good team. They're not.
Speaker 92 If the playoffs started right now, the Bills would not make the playoffs.
Speaker 10
Yeah, they're just not a good team. They might, I still think that they have the capability of, I'm not going to say flipping the switch.
They're not good enough to flip a switch anymore.
Speaker 10 Oh, but they need to round into shape.
Speaker 43 The Bills have a tough schedule.
Speaker 54 The Bills might not make the playoffs.
Speaker 10
That would be a shame. I would not like that.
I would not.
Speaker 53 I'm not even being sarcastic.
Speaker 10 No, I think that would be a shame.
Speaker 24 So they play the Broncos next.
Speaker 72 They should win that at home.
Speaker 7 They play the Jets, who they always struggle with at home.
Speaker 45 Then they they have to play at Eagles, at Chiefs versus Cowboys,
Speaker 116 at Chargers, if you want to throw in the Chargers.
Speaker 58 That's a pretty tough four games.
Speaker 75 Yeah.
Speaker 10 The Bills, yeah, they might be the team that no one wants to play in the playoffs.
Speaker 102 And that might be about their ceiling.
Speaker 17 Well, because they're not in the playoffs.
Speaker 43 Right.
Speaker 54 Right.
Speaker 10 So you wouldn't want to play them because then you'd also be able to play the team.
Speaker 36 You'd also play in the playoffs. Right.
Speaker 71 Okay, so there it is.
Speaker 88 Bills, the team no one wants to play in the playoffs.
Speaker 10 Things got out of hand tonight with the referee, with the flags.
Speaker 7 Oh, so much. It was so bad.
Speaker 10 And I hate it when they bring on their little
Speaker 10 referees that are like in the command center when you get like Terry McAuliffe to come out to explain what the refs did wrong. And then they're like, actually, the refs did everything right.
Speaker 90 That intentional grounding call was so bad. Yeah.
Speaker 10
The only one with any soul is Dean Blandino. Yeah.
He'll actually say, yeah, this is, they fucked this one up. Italian.
Speaker 119 You can't guess.
Speaker 102 He's a real Paisan.
Speaker 10 But the rest of them, Terry McAuliffe, he's just like, well, you know, Chris, to your untrained eye, it might look like an egregiously bad intentional grounding, but I'm here to tell you why it was the right call to make, and then I don't really care what you say.
Speaker 10 Yeah. And I hate it.
Speaker 102 Dude, the AFC playoffs are going to be awesome.
Speaker 117 Just looking at it right now.
Speaker 92 The fact that the Bills aren't in the playoffs right now is crazy.
Speaker 49 And it's going to be like there are some really fucking good teams in the AFC.
Speaker 15 And the Bengals are the seventh seed right now.
Speaker 102 They're the team no one wants to play.
Speaker 10 Yeah, for sure.
Speaker 110 They are definitely the team no one wants to play.
Speaker 10 All right.
Speaker 129
Hey, this is Rhea from Chicks in the Office. And this season, we're heading home for the holidays with Abercrombie and Fitch.

Speaker 44 Who's back of the week? Hank.
Speaker 72 You've had enough time to figure it out.
Speaker 125
Yeah, man. Who's back of the week? I have multiple.
The first one is the nba play-in tournament yeah yeah
Speaker 10 gross courts courts are disgusting it's way too early in the season to do it i was you know i knew it was coming but six games in is way too early i still don't fully understand the format and the courts are disgusting there's like group group stage where they're now playing for seating in it i don't i don't get it that much i didn't have a problem with the courts though it was like whatever they were tough it's a friday we got weird courts out there.
Speaker 23 They're disgusting.
Speaker 15 It was tough to watch.
Speaker 125 It looks like a sunbelt
Speaker 104 shitty sunbelt game.
Speaker 67 Yeah, like NIU.
Speaker 10 Felt personal, Hank.
Speaker 40 Do you have a basketball team?
Speaker 10 Yeah, they're playing against Michigan State tonight.
Speaker 39 NBA, Michigan State is going to be good this year.
Speaker 116 NBA doesn't really start for me till Christmas Day.
Speaker 125 Yeah, that's kind of what I'm saying. I thought it was going to be like closer than when the tournament would start, get the hype going, but to just do it six games in really threw me me for a loop.
Speaker 10
Yeah, it was weird seeing that out of nowhere. I did buy League Pass, though.
Big step in my life.
Speaker 10 First time ever purchasing League Pass just so I can watch Jordan Poole be the most ridiculous basketball player of all time.
Speaker 125 It's the best, and you get the feed of the
Speaker 125
chumbotronic commercials. Yeah.
Can't beat it.
Speaker 22 Yeah.
Speaker 125
My other who's back, you guys are wearing them. I was wearing them on Thursday.

I can tell Max is mad at us.
Speaker 10 Max, I'm repping you.
Speaker 40
He's mad at us. I'm not mad.
You're mad.
Speaker 96 You're mad at us. Ugly sweaters.
Speaker 128 Buy your ugly sweaters.
Speaker 23 Kevin James.
Speaker 126 Kevin James.
Speaker 74 Guy. I got the stellar blue one.
Speaker 53 Coffee.

20% off, 24 hours. I'm not saying that you're ugly.
I'm saying that the sweater is ugly. Even though it just happens to have your face on it.
Speaker 126 I didn't even think that until you just said it.
Speaker 10 All right, cool. I want to make sure that you weren't thinking that.
Speaker 26 Max, don't be mad at us.
Speaker 4 When you listen back, when you went to the bathroom, you said some nice things about the Eagles.
Speaker 126 I think you said bad things. No,
Speaker 119 I'm reverse it on you.
Speaker 71 Old switcher root.
Speaker 126 Now I don't know if you're reversing it on me now. Yeah, just listen.
Speaker 89 Guess what?
Speaker 40 Yeah.
Speaker 10
All right, thank you, Jake. It was bad.
He would never lie.
Speaker 40 Who am I going to try?
Speaker 10 That's the angel and the demon on your shoulder is Jake and memes. I wonder which one's telling the truth.
Speaker 6 Yeah.
Speaker 23 All right, Pifty, who's your who's back?
Speaker 10
My who's back of the week is Uganda. Yeah.
So Donnie and Billy are overseas in Uganda right now. Billy, to some extent, I don't know, is coaching the Uganda national football team.
Speaker 10 Well, he's doing so in a boot because he broke his foot in a pickup basketball game before he left.
Speaker 91 And I read Billy's pre-draft analysis of Will Levis, so he knows football.
Speaker 10 He's dead on target with what he said about Will Levis. Don't let the haters fool you.
Speaker 10
They are going to be over there. I think the game's next Sunday, and it's Uganda against Kenya.
Last time those two countries played, throughout the record books, I think Uganda lost six to nothing.
Speaker 10 So Billy's installing some new offensive plays. They're bringing part of my cheesesteak over there.
Speaker 10 I was talking to Donnie earlier in the week, and I was like, you guys have to figure out some sort of like a turnover chain theme thing for them.
Speaker 10 Like, if they make a good play, they should get to do something cool on the sidelines.
Speaker 10 Um, they came up with the turnover steak because it's part of my cheese steak, where they're going to put a stake in the ground, and the player's going to get to use a sledgehammer and pound into the ground when they get a turnover.
Speaker 10
Someone's going to get injured. Someone, probably Billy, I would imagine.
Um, but I'm very much looking forward to the content that Donnie and Billy have over there because it's going to be
Speaker 10 incredible.
Speaker 10
We worked on their playbook, too. Billy's got all sorts of ideas that he's going to try to implement in one day, and I feel bad for the quarterback who has a great name.
What's that guy's name again?
Speaker 10 I'm going to look it up. But yeah, Billy's going to try to coach this guy up in about like eight hours and tell him all the things to do.
Speaker 125 Yeah, we'll let Donnie out. I don't know when the graphic's coming out, but it's one of the funniest graphics I've ever seen.
Speaker 125 It's just, you know, part of it, it's Billy and Donnie on
Speaker 125 in the ground in Africa coaching football all in the name of cheesesteaks.
Speaker 15 I'm excited.
Speaker 72 In the ground.
Speaker 125 Boots on the ground in Africa.
Speaker 54 Literally.
Speaker 125
All in the name of cheesesteaks. And that's truly what it's all about.
Cheesesteaks and football.
Speaker 23 Yeah, I think that's a good point.
Speaker 125 That's why this podcast started.
Speaker 10
This guy's name is something like Crow the Game. It's something like William Twist or something, although a cooler name than that.
I know his last name is Twist, who's the quarterback for Uganda.
Speaker 10 Pretty cool name.
Speaker 54 Love it. Love it.
Speaker 15 I can't wait to watch this.
Speaker 32 All right, my who's back. I have two.
Speaker 116 College basketball's back.
Speaker 75 Yep, Monday. There's like 100 games.
Speaker 15 I've already made like 20 bets.
Speaker 10
113 D1 versus D1 games. Love it.
Sick.
Speaker 21 Love it.
Speaker 117 And I'm going to make a ton of bets.
Speaker 15 And this is one of my favorite times of the year, right around Thanksgiving when we start watching college basketball in the middle of the day.
Speaker 33 So college basketball is back.
Speaker 59 Also, the new office is back because we're going to unveil it.
Speaker 67 10 a.m. Yep.
Speaker 58 Central.
Speaker 125 Yep.
Speaker 69 So 11 a.m.
Speaker 88 Eastern on the Viva La Stool.
Speaker 55 YouTube.
Speaker 53 YouTube.
Speaker 32 So we have held this back.
Speaker 25 Everyone did a really good job of not showing videos, mostly.
Speaker 106 Agreed.
Speaker 20 And so we are going to start.
Speaker 10 We just passed inspection.
Speaker 44 Yeah, we just passed inspection.
Speaker 114 We're going to show everyone the office, everything that's involved, and then we're going to start.
Speaker 93 I think the first official
Speaker 2 new stream is going to be Thursday afternoon.
Speaker 79 We're going to play dodgeball with the whole office.
Speaker 15 Will and Taylor will be here as well.
Speaker 10 It's going to be great. Hanks.
Speaker 79 Hank's got the four-team dodgeball tournament.
Speaker 10
Hank's got the golf simulator up and running, and he's spending all of his time there for content. For content.
um, it is we haven't been on a stream yet, it is actually incredible.
Speaker 10 I love the golf simulator, everything's incredible.
Speaker 53 And then I think Friday, we're gonna follow it up with a wiffle ball home run derby.
Speaker 125
Yeah, it's exciting. Finally, day has finally come.
Yeah, Vival Stool YouTube for the office stuff that will be you know, the vlogs, behind-the-scenes, day-to-day interaction, stool streams back.
Speaker 125 Yep, that will be where all the uh athletic activities and sports go on that channel.
Speaker 125 Tune in, stay tuned.
Speaker 18 Pumped, pumped, pumped for everyone to see it.
Speaker 22 It is.
Speaker 18 All business Pete did a good job.
Speaker 53 Great job.
Speaker 89 Parking lot.
Speaker 89 Good job.
Speaker 10 Let's not get him too hyped.
Speaker 90 He did a good job.
Speaker 40 But yeah,
Speaker 105 it's going to be awesome.
Speaker 10
I'll say this. The internet works.
The internet works. If you want to get excited about one thing in this new office, is that the Wi-Fi is good.
Speaker 39 He did it.
Speaker 99 And he gave us a walk-in freezer, which I think is something that he's keeping when the internet breaks.
Speaker 62 It's a cooler.
Speaker 36 Cooler.
Speaker 44 There's a freezer. Cooler.
Speaker 10 It's a cooler. I think it's like above freezing in there.
Speaker 12 Oh, so it's not.
Speaker 10 It's cold enough where all business Pete could put a dead body in there if he had to.
Speaker 44 But I think what he's going to do is the internet's going to break.
Speaker 22 He's like, but I got you that freezer.
Speaker 127 Yeah.
Speaker 125 The real question is who will the first significant injury be?
Speaker 40 Knock off.
Speaker 73 I mean, it's it.
Speaker 10 I went to the doctor on Friday.
Speaker 125 That question has to be asked.
Speaker 10
For my Evan injury. So when Pug got me in my ribs, I thought it was fractured because I heard like a pop, went to the doctor, gave me an x-ray.
No fracture, but they said separated cartilage.
Speaker 125 Damn, so no dog, and there was no dog in the middle.
Speaker 10 No, no, there was no dog.
Speaker 10
The official diagnosis was, you're a bitch, sir. Please leave.
Please leave urgent care immediately.
Speaker 40 Yeah.
Speaker 19 Okay.
Speaker 85 So yeah, get excited for that.
Speaker 102 We're very excited.
Speaker 56 Obviously, it's been a weird.
Speaker 89 24-hour stream coming to probably two
Speaker 125 next couple weeks.
Speaker 56 Yeah, it's been a weird, you know, six months or whatever, this entire transition process, but we're finally, it's like when we unveil it on Monday, 10 Central, 11 Eastern, it's all systems go, and we're ready to go.
Speaker 12 And we appreciate everyone bearing with us through all of it.
Speaker 21 We're very excited.
Speaker 110 It's going to be incredible for everyone.
Speaker 58 Okay, Jake, finish us off.
Speaker 15 Also, Max, stop being mad at us.
Speaker 10
My who's back of the week is the D.C. Pickleball team.
Yeah. Champions of MLP Dallas tournament.
We did it.
Speaker 40 Oh, wait, it's not the whole league?
Speaker 36 No.
Speaker 40 It's a tournament. Oh, we We won a tournament, though.
Speaker 53 Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 98 spit on them. Yeah.
Speaker 125 We got to do it.
Speaker 125 I said it when I was at the, me and Jerry stayed in and watched wrestling practice at Wisconsin for like an hour and a half, a couple weekends ago. And the coach was talking about coming.
Speaker 125 I was like, yeah, we should host a regional. Like, I'm just kind of obsessed with trying to host
Speaker 125 events at the office, but an official pickleball sanctioned match would be great.
Speaker 20 Would be incredible.
Speaker 10 Can you do that on Hardwood?
Speaker 53 I don't know.
Speaker 125 I'm just.
Speaker 12 Yeah, I think if we put a Matt down,
Speaker 20 I want to host a basketball team, college or NBA, to come just do a practice.
Speaker 28 College team.
Speaker 39 Maybe Danny Hurley. We should do a dunk contest.
Speaker 36 I can't play DePaul.
Speaker 10 Like, host a dunk contest here.
Speaker 125 Also, the hoops are 10-5. We've got to fix that.
Speaker 43 Are they for real?

Speaker 81 No respect for the ground rules of of shooting around oh yeah oh people who don't give change are scumbags low lifes and pieces of shit i put them next to orange squeeze fans orlando squeeze orlando squeeze yeah what i say orange same thing yeah um yeah there should be ground rules if it's a layup obviously you don't get you don't get your change for that but anything outside the key right you miss a shot and then you get a layup and then you give the ball back yeah
Speaker 125 people are just you know taking balls and shooting them like it's it's anarchy out there.
