Speaker 1 Hey, pardon my take, listeners. You can find every episode on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or YouTube.
Prime members can listen ad-free on Amazon Music.

Speaker 2 Sweaters and denim for casual plans, party dresses for nights out, and comfy matching sets for everything in between. Keep the chaos cute this season in Abercrombie.

Speaker 2 Shop their new holiday outfits in the app online or in stores.

Speaker 3 On today's part of my take week 11 recap. We have fastest two minutes.
We talk about everything that happened. A couple surprises, a couple statement games, I would say.

Speaker 3 We learn some more things about some teams. We also can officially throw a few teams in the dumpster dumpster pile, cross it off, throw them away.
I'm looking at you, Seattle Seahawks.

Speaker 3 I fucking hate your guts.

Speaker 4 When cool, creamy ranch meets tangy, bold buffalo, the hole is greater than the sum of its sauce. Say howdy, partner, to new Buffalo Ranch Sauce, only at McDonald's for a limited time.

Speaker 5 At participating, McDonald's.

Speaker 3 Okay, let's go.

Speaker 3 Now in the street, there is violence.

Speaker 3 And I not like the sound of work to be done.

Speaker 3 No place to hang out or washing.

Speaker 3 And I can't blame all on the sun. Oh no, we're gonna rock it down to Elite Trake Avenue.

Speaker 3 And then we'll take it higher.

Speaker 3 Oh, we're gonna rock it down to Elite Trake Avenue.

Speaker 3 And

Speaker 6 It's part of my take presented by Barcelona Sports.

Speaker 3 Welcome to Pardon My Take presented by Tostitos. Go to tostitos.com/slash Romo to get Romo in your ear.
Also eat Tostitos because it's the best chip in the world. Today is Monday, November 22nd,

Speaker 3 week 11.

Speaker 3 What?

Speaker 3 What? What?

Speaker 3 We start in Minnesota where Dalvin and Hobbs Cook and Kirk Diggler dropped their big dong on Green Bay. Justin Jefferson Airplane said, one pill makes you larger and one pill makes you small.

Speaker 3 And you know what pill he's taking on Sunday? Those do's, the Canadian ones with a pop. The white rabbit Adam Thielen hopped his way into the end zone as Vikings fans finally have an offense to love.

Speaker 3 The environmental disaster Marquez, Exxon, Valdez, Scantling, and AJ Oil Spilling were tough to contain as they covered up for Aaron Rodgers' wounded ducks on Sunday, but it was too little, too late as the Vikings find a way to get the big win in the NFC Norse.

Speaker 3 Vikings 34, Packers 31.

Speaker 3 In Chicago, where Lamar Michael Jackson's butt was a SYT shitty young thing as a starting quarterback was feeling bad all week.

Speaker 3 And John Harbaugh said, got to be starting huntly, got to be starting Huntley. Matt Nagy's looking at the man in the mirror, and he's asking everyone else to change their ways.

Speaker 3 What was a bad game became a thriller at the end, but Devontae Sunday Freeman didn't have any chocolate rain leaking out of his butt as the Ravens overcome their locker room viral sensation of their own.

Speaker 3 Taking down the Bears. 1613.

Speaker 3 To the Meadowlands where the Jets insurance policy Joe Aflacco was throwing ducks, but the Dolphins had a waddle of their own as Quack Hollins found his way to the end zone.

Speaker 3 Much like his namesake, Jameson Manhattan Clam Crowder was the inferior product on Sunday.

Speaker 3 Tattoo Tagliavoa put a tramp stamp right above his Miles Askin, and the Dolphins keep it rolling with three wins in a row? Huh?

Speaker 3 Dolphins 24, Jets 17.

Speaker 3 And down to Charlotte, where Taylor Wynem Dynam 60 Hynem put the football team in a winning position. Cam Zuten was riding a little too high after his first half touchdown.

Speaker 3 And on the other side of the field, Cameron Rivera said, I'll tell you what the A80s like, and I know what Joe Brady likes. Need a QB that's polite, listens, and takes advice.

Speaker 3 Heineke's up Paul 3, plus, he can lay the pipe. The Washington football team tanked down the Panthers.
27, 21,

Speaker 3 some spread.

Speaker 3 Up to Western New York, where one, two, three, four, five, just give Jonathan Taylor the ball and he'll end this drive. A little bit of Jonathan in my life.

Speaker 3 A little bit of Ursa by my side, a little bit of Quentin in what I see, a little bit of Pittman in the sun, a little bit of Rodrigo all night long, just a little bit, just a little bit of Wentz is all you need.

Speaker 3 Aha! I've butchered that. Mambo number five.

Speaker 3 In the land of the chicken wing, head coach Reich proves that Frank's red hot. Colts 41, Bills 15.
You gotta laugh at yourself sometimes, Teach.

Speaker 6 You're absolutely right, Boom.

Speaker 3 In Tennessee, Adrian Skeeterson had the Titans losing their top seed in a stunner. Desmond Go Off King had two of four interceptions thrown by Mr.
Ryan T, who had a day to forget. Come on, Tan Hill.

Speaker 3 Tyrod Taylor's version was good in the red area. And once again, Oedipus Rex Perkhead was a real motherfucker as a Texans stunned the Titans.
22, 13.

Speaker 3 Up to Cleveland where Tim Suzanne Boyle still hasn't scored but threw a handsome football as the Lions still haven't completed the impossible dream, a single win in the 2021 NFL season.

Speaker 3 Nick Merck's Chubb, who is totally 5'11, was dominating Verdance Campbell's map. And DeAndre ran fast and furious.
Tokyo Swift was pounding the rock, but it's ludicrous they still don't have a Vin.

Speaker 3 Diesel, that is. Browns 13, Lions 10.
The wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald stays home in Cleveland. And it was a real bird fight in Seattle before Turkey Day.
You know who the real turkey is, boom?

Speaker 3 Obama.

Speaker 3 And DK Iglesias Metcalf said, I can be your hero, baby.

Speaker 3 I can run real fast and straight. McCoy had Colt 45 and to Zach Gertz, tutties is all we need.
We can head back to the bus because we just beat Russ and smoked that AJ Green.

Speaker 3 But Alex Rodriguez Collins and DJ Lowe Dallas made it look like the Seahawks Seahawks are heading to Splitsville with Pete Carroll. Cards, 33.
Seahawks, 33.

Speaker 3 In Kansas City, it was defense that led the day, huh?

Speaker 3 There was no Dalamari as the Cowboys were left playing a squid game, no longer hanging with Mr. Cooper, who is out with COVID.

Speaker 3 Micah Parsons, Sage, Rosemary had a game that was all time wreaking havoc for the Cowboys' defense.

Speaker 3 Travis for the boys, Kelsey ran for a touchdown, and Clyde the Glyde Edwards Hilaire added one of his own for an impressive Chiefs win. Chiefs 19, Cowboys 9

Speaker 3 standing on a corner, Jameis Winston down in Nola. Such a fine sight to see.

Speaker 3 It's Trevor Cime,

Speaker 3 he's the Batman man.

Speaker 3 And Jalen Hurts had three TDs.

Speaker 3 It's Siri.

Speaker 3 It's Sora Gomi.

Speaker 3 But 40 to 29 is a classic swami.

Speaker 3 Eagles 40. Saints 29.

Speaker 3 And that was week 11.

Speaker 7 Hey, it's PFT here, reminding you that Boarshead makes game day entertaining elevated and effortless.

Speaker 7 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 7 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 7 Seriously, guys, it's a game-changing flavor for every gathering. Boarshead, committed to craft since 1905.

Speaker 3 Okay, week 11. So usually we start with Sunday night football.
We started taping the show while watching Sunday night football.

Speaker 3 The Chargers, Steelers played a Big 12 game. It was awesome.

Speaker 3 Big Ben might be back officially.

Speaker 3 The Chargers offense looked incredible, but there's a little bonus because there was something that was revealed later on in the show, and we kind of discussed the whole game and some bets that might break this podcast up

Speaker 3 later later on.

Speaker 6 I think that's probably the best way to digest this game. If you came to this show looking for like real in-depth analysis of the Sealers Chargers game, you're probably not going to find it.

Speaker 6 But what you will find as you listen on through this show will be something much more enthralling.

Speaker 3 It's way better.

Speaker 6 You get to hear part of my take break up in real time.

Speaker 3 You is way, way better.

Speaker 3 Yeah, if you're looking for someone to be like, oh, yeah, Justin Herbert, you know, 300 yards, Big Ben, three touchdowns. I will say.
Go listen somewhere else.

Speaker 3 This one will be way better when it happens, and it's a big reveal.

Speaker 6 Everything I'm about to say feels inconsequential

Speaker 6 to what ends up happening in this show. But I will say that Justin Herbert, when he's running the football, the Chargers' offense looks like it's back to being back.

Speaker 3 Yes, yes. So

Speaker 3 we're going to do the rest of the show right now. We're going to do the rest of the recap, but tune in because somewhere towards the back half of the games we're recapping, the big reveal happens.

Speaker 3 And yeah, we might not be a podcast anymore.

Speaker 6 I'll just say that at halftime in the the third quarter and the start of the fourth, I thought for sure that the Chargers were going to win by double digits.

Speaker 6 That seemed like it was going to be a lock. And I couldn't really see a way that that would not happen.

Speaker 3 Yeah.

Speaker 6 So

Speaker 6 stay tuned.

Speaker 3 Let's get into the rest of the games. Week 11.

Speaker 3 Some crazy games, some games that we didn't see coming, some games we did see coming, some teams we can throw out, but we'll start with, I would say, the game with the most implications for how we view the season going forward, and that is Colts 41, Bills 15.

Speaker 3 The Bills, we love Buffalo. Let me just say this.
Can we just say a few nice things about Buffalo? We love Buffalo. We love Wingnuts.
Yep. Greatest city.

Speaker 6 It's always fun to be there. You love Benny the Butcher.

Speaker 3 Love Benny the Butcher.

Speaker 3 Love Josh Allen.

Speaker 3 The Bills have a big-time problem. The Bills have a issue.

Speaker 3 fundamental issue that I'm worried about for Bills fans.

Speaker 3 I'm trying very, very hard not to say the F-word, but they seem fraudulent right now because they got, we talked about tough teams and man football teams. The Colts are that.

Speaker 3 The Bills are not right now.

Speaker 6 I'd say today, it wasn't a clowning. It was not a whooping.
I'd say it was a waxing. I think the Colts absolutely waxed the Bills.

Speaker 6 I don't think that the Bills are soft necessarily because they were hard.

Speaker 6 But now they're just in like the refractory period where they're going to be soft for a little bit until they're ready to score again. Then they're going to get hard later on in the season.

Speaker 6 They obviously couldn't stop Jonathan Taylor today, but I don't think that that's a Bills problem. I think that's just an NFL defender problem.

Speaker 3 But okay, so the issue with the Bills, there's a couple issues. One is you expect their defense to play very, very good.

Speaker 3 Their offense did not help their defense today with all the turnovers and giving them bad field position, but

Speaker 3 they got run over by Jonathan Taylor. He had over 200 yards.
He had five touchdowns. He's the fifth player ever in Super Bowl era to do that.

Speaker 3 Jamal Charles, Clinton Portis, Sean Alexander, and Jerry Rice are the other four, which is a hilarious group of players just to begin with.

Speaker 3 He was dominant. He was scoring every single time we looked up.
They couldn't stop him. But the Bills' offense also is kind of broken, and Josh Allen has not been playing well.
We love Josh Allen.

Speaker 3 He's a friend of ours. He has not been playing well.
They can't run the ball.

Speaker 3 Their best running attack is Josh Allen, but they also don't want to run Josh Allen because they don't want him to get hurt.

Speaker 3 So they're now stuck in this weird spot where it feels like all their play, like it doesn't feel like they have any rhythm when you're watching them play offense.

Speaker 3 And I'm worried about the Bills because now we're getting into December. We're at the end of November.
They're 6-4. They just gave up first place in the AFC East to the Patriots.

Speaker 3 And I'm looking at what they've put together. And

Speaker 3 where's like their big win is that Chiefs game where the Chiefs were struggling, but they beaten up on some teams they should have beaten.

Speaker 3 And then then they play a Colts team that's kind of starting to round into form as a real like playoff contender, and they got absolutely smoked on their home field.

Speaker 6 I had my first moment of the year where it's like, wow. Oh, yeah, I can't wait to see that on hard knocks.
I hope that Jonathan Taylor was mic'd up today.

Speaker 6 I hope that we get to see exactly what he was saying as he was just running roughshod all over the Buffalo Bills defense. But I thought about it today, so that's progress for the NFL.
Yes.

Speaker 6 That it's in my head somewhere.

Speaker 3 I'm worried about the Bills.

Speaker 6 I am worried about them, too. I want to chalk it up to the fact that every team that's playing on Thanksgiving lost today.
Yes. And it's just like some of those trends that we didn't know about

Speaker 6 until after the fact when it happened.

Speaker 6 But yeah, I'm a little bit worried about the Bills. Hand up.

Speaker 6 When I looked at the standings today and I saw the Patriots were now above them, I was like, when did that happen?

Speaker 3 Here's

Speaker 6 a couple of those games. Like the Patriots have quietly just been dominating, and the Bills have quietly been losing ground over the last month or so.

Speaker 6 And yeah, it's concerning because if you're the Bills, you need home field advantage in the playoffs.

Speaker 3 Here's what it really boils down to. We've said it was a bit that we keep forgetting the bills when we list off contenders the last couple weeks.

Speaker 3 I think it was our subconscious being smarter than our conscious, like saying, hey,

Speaker 3 you guys are stupid to keep throwing in there until they prove it. Now, the good news is...
There's still a lot of season left. You're still a good team.
You're not a great team right now.

Speaker 3 And the Bills, I was thinking about it. Like, why am I worried about the Bills? One, because of everything we just listed.
Like, their offense looks shaky and their defense got kind of run over today.

Speaker 3 But more than anything, and this is very stupid, but this is what happens in the media. If you don't win a big prime time game, you kind of like fade from

Speaker 3 the discussion of big time teams. The Bills have had, I think just the Chiefs game was their primetime game.
Oh, no, they lost the Titans in primetime.

Speaker 3 So, but they've played a lot of teams that are not good. So they played a lot of one o'clock games on Sunday.
The good news is they play Thursday night Thanksgiving at the Saints.

Speaker 3 They play Monday night against the Patriots, and then they play in the afternoon slot, which probably would get flexed against the Bucs.

Speaker 3 So, that's three games in a row that the Bills can basically prove that they are worth being talked about in the contender category. But this was bad.

Speaker 6 This was bad. We can also blame the Manningcast for Josh Allen.

Speaker 6 We can put blame wherever we wanted. This was also like the credit to the Colts, who their offensive line played really well today.

Speaker 6 The Colts defense is awesome.

Speaker 3 Well, Darius is a good one.

Speaker 6 I'm pretty sure that their defense leads the NFL in takeaways this year.

Speaker 6 Somebody looked that up. I'm like 90% sure.
I thought I heard that somewhere today.

Speaker 3 I'm going to ride that. Yeah, actually, don't look it up.
Don't look it up.

Speaker 6 The Colts' defense is number one in the NFL.

Speaker 3 That's a cool takeaway. Thank you.

Speaker 6 Yeah, no, I counted all of them today. I watched all the film.
And obviously, like, 30 points from running back.

Speaker 3 That's a little bit demoralizing.

Speaker 6 Insane. I'm worried about how the Bills are going to bounce back.
I'll add another reason to be worried about the Bills to your list is that they're the Buffalo Bills. Yes.

Speaker 6 And so historically, you should be a little bit worried about.

Speaker 3 But here's the good news is that now that we're down on them, they can come back and be

Speaker 3 the Buffalo Bills we want them to be. Because we've said this before, that the Bills riding high and the Bills being considered like an elite team is bad for the Bills.

Speaker 3 And hope is a bad thing to have.

Speaker 3 Sorry, not hope. Expectations is a bad thing to have.
And now the expectations are lowering. I think they'll figure it out.
But goddamn, that was a bad game.

Speaker 3 Now, for the Colts, the Colts are like actually rounding into a good team. They had a bad September, and now they've started to play good football.
Am I a little worried they're my pinky team?

Speaker 3 Yeah, maybe a little. No.
Because

Speaker 3 maybe just a tiny bit.

Speaker 6 Well, this was the formula for Carson Wentz winning a game on the road, which is go 11 for 20 and throw for 106 yards. Yes.

Speaker 3 It's perfect.

Speaker 6 As long as you can limit Carson Wentz to doing that as an offensive coordinator, then you're probably going going to win a lot of games.

Speaker 3 And also put on the camouflage sleeve so that, because you know in Carson Wentz, in the back of his head, he's like, this actually helps because no one can actually see my arm when I'm throwing a pass.

Speaker 6 Oh, I was going to say because he thinks that he's in the military.

Speaker 3 Yeah, that too. Yeah.
Yeah. And if the enemy is ducks, he shingles his roof.

Speaker 3 But yeah, Carson Wentz, I mean, that was nothing to write home about.

Speaker 3 He did enough.

Speaker 3 It was Jonathan Taylor. It was Jonathan Taylor and the Colts defense.

Speaker 3 But I do think the Colts, like, if you're looking for a team that is, I think they're technically right now outside of the playoffs, but I would trust them more than some of the teams that are inside the playoffs.

Speaker 6 I would say the Colts are the team that nobody wants to play right now. Yep.

Speaker 3 Yep. Officially.

Speaker 6 Like, they're number one. If I'm looking at my rankings of teams that you don't want to play, I put, it's usually a team like the Colts.
Like, the Colts, I would say the Niners.

Speaker 6 No one wants to play the Niners right now.

Speaker 3 Yeah, I mean, the Colts started 0-3, and since then, they have, you know, been playing very good football. And besides that,

Speaker 3 like think about their two losses since they started 0-3.

Speaker 3 That Ravens game where they totally fucked up on that Monday night football and the game against the Titans at home, which they also totally fucked up.

Speaker 3 The famous Carson Wentz, that was actually a better pick six than getting a safety there. Galaxy brain move.
So they're playing good football.

Speaker 3 Yeah, I think officially the Colts are the team no one wants to play in the ACT.

Speaker 6 Okay,

Speaker 6 my top three teams that nobody wants to play is number one. Number one, the Indianapolis Colts.
Yes. Number two, I've actually got the Vikings.
Nobody wants to play the Vikings right now.

Speaker 3 Okay.

Speaker 6 Just because it sucks to hang out with Kirk Cousins.

Speaker 3 Number three, the 49ers. I was going to say the 49ers.
The 49ers. Damn.
Yep.

Speaker 6 Those are my top three.

Speaker 3 We're synced up. We're synced up.
I would actually maybe throw in the Eagles, too. Yeah, no, the Eagles are starting to get there.

Speaker 3 We are synced up. We're like sore girls in our period right now.
Yeah, we're getting there. We're getting there.
All right, so

Speaker 3 bury the football, Sean McDermott. That's your only hope.

Speaker 6 He has to bury several footballs.

Speaker 3 Here, good news. You get to play Thursday night against Trevor Simeon,

Speaker 6 who has not looked great. Great medicine.

Speaker 3 And hopefully that figures everything out. The dome will probably be rocking, but at least you get that, like, hey, we can get some.

Speaker 3 If you win that game on Thursday night against the Saints team that even if they have been playing poorly and lost a couple in a row, they still have a ton of talented players.

Speaker 3 You win on Thursday night, you get a little, as Jules calls it, a baby buy, and then you get yourself figured out for a Monday night football game against the Patriots that will have huge, huge implications.

Speaker 6 I want to see see Buffalo bring a shitload of wingsauce down to New Orleans for when they bring out the smoked turkey legs. Yes.
Cover that motherfucker up like it's a Buffalo leg.

Speaker 3 Yes. Hank, quickly, AFC East, you are now in first.
Did you ever... You actually said, though, you're a little worried that it's too much too fast for the Patriots.

Speaker 3 Yeah, as the Patriots have gotten hot, every other team in the NFL has had some stinkers. You know, you just want to be hot at the right time.
And right now it's good, but it's not the right time.

Speaker 3 Right.

Speaker 6 Yeah, they're peaking too early.

Speaker 3 When is the right time?

Speaker 6 in a couple couple weeks yeah like a month right now the patriots like i think are the best team in the nfl

Speaker 3 team i said team if the playoffs started tomorrow yeah they would probably be in the top three super bowl favorites contenders yes yeah no i i don't think that's wrong They're playing the best football of anyone right now.

Speaker 6 Have you heard anybody had the discussion about whether or not, like, oh, shit, we passed on Mac Jones?

Speaker 6 Like, how they did with Patrick Mahomes, like, all these teams that could have used a quarterback ahead of them.

Speaker 3 I've seen that. Well, the Panthers are definitely a team that, especially because someone pulled up Matt Rule's comments from the Senior Bowl, where he was like, Mac Jones has it all figured out.

Speaker 3 Mac Jones is incredible.

Speaker 3 And then they pass on him and decide to go with Sam Darnold. So he's definitely number one on the list right now.

Speaker 3 I would say probably the 49ers have to be up there, Trey Lance, although we don't know what he is.

Speaker 6 Maybe the Dolphins. Yeah.

Speaker 3 We'll see.

Speaker 6 Maybe the Dolphins. Dolphins.

Speaker 3 Those are sneaky hats. We'll get to him.

Speaker 3 I'm a full-on Tua guy now. I've been gaslit to just being like, this guy rules.
All right. Next one.

Speaker 3 Vikings Packers. This was the other big game where it felt like there were...

Speaker 3 We learned a lot from the Vikings. And actually, we learned a lot from both teams in this game.
The Vikings, we'll start with the Vikings. That was...

Speaker 3 A Vikings game that, you know, the Al Pacino game of inches speech.

Speaker 3 If Darnell Savage completes that interception of Kirk Cousins with like two minutes left, the Packers go down, win that game, and it's the same old Vikings. He doesn't complete the interception.

Speaker 3 Kirk Cousins takes him down. Dalvin Cook rips off a big run.
The Vikings get a huge, huge win against a red-hot Packers team.

Speaker 3 And now the Vikings are, like you said, a team no one wants to play, a team that has been in every game.

Speaker 3 I think I saw the stat today, which is crazy. The Vikings are the only team in the NFL that have had a seven-point lead at some point in every single one of their games.

Speaker 6 Yeah, they've lost some really weird games. The Vikings are definitely, they're a talented team.

Speaker 6 Mike Zimmer said it best because I feel in my bones when Mike Zimmer talks about how he spends his Sunday. He said, you know, they say Sunday is fun day.
It's not. Sundays are not fun.
Whoa. I agree.

Speaker 6 Sundays, like, especially if you're Mike Zimmer, because even when you win a game, it's like, well, shit, okay, we probably, I can count the ways that we probably should have lost that game.

Speaker 3 Then I personally blew it.

Speaker 6 And even when you lose a game, you're like, oh, shit, I can count the ways that we should have won that game. Yes.

Speaker 6 It's got to be so frustrating. It's like a coin flip for them.
But the Vikings, the strategy at the end, playing for a field goal was a weird strategy if you're a Vikings fan.

Speaker 6 If you're the Vikings fan, any other franchise, probably, yes. Play for the field goal.
Try to do like a 29-yard chip shot at the end and see if you can win it.

Speaker 6 But I don't think anybody that's a Minnesota fan was like feeling confident with that strategy. I would have just tried to score.

Speaker 6 Like, fuck that. Like, I know that I cannot count on Greg Joseph to make a field goal.

Speaker 3 It's actually a damned if you do, damned if you don't, because you have, on one hand, the Vikings' history of field goals, and you're like, oh, my God, we don't want to leave it up to a field goal.

Speaker 3 And then on the other, you have the history of Aaron Rodgers just ripping people's hearts out with late-game heroics. So they win.
Huge win.

Speaker 3 Again, it was crazy to see how little. We actually went to a commercial break because we have six games on.
We didn't realize that Darnell Savage had kind of fumbled the interception.

Speaker 3 We thought that it was like, oh, same old Kirk, throws a a big pick, which it was a terrible throw. Yep.

Speaker 3 But Kirk Cousins played well.

Speaker 3 Justin Jefferson, I don't know where you want to rank him, but if you don't have him in your top five wide receivers, then you're just not watching football anymore because he's incredible, incredible.

Speaker 3 And he's doing the thing that ingratiates yourself to a fan base where he wore a Randy Moss shirt today saying how much he loves Randy Moss.

Speaker 3 That's like the coolest thing you can do if you're for a Vikings fan. It's like, this guy loves our other guy who's who's the man.

Speaker 6 Also kind of a desperate move on Jefferson's part though because he said that Randy Moss hasn't been like as welcoming to him as he would like. Like he wants to be boys

Speaker 3 with Randy Moss.

Speaker 6 And Randy Moss is like, hey, I've got friends. I'm old.
Yeah. I'm in my 40s.
I don't make new friends. Right.

Speaker 6 That chip sales when you're about like 30 years old is probably when you stop making like real lifelong friends. Yes.

Speaker 3 I would say. But he was incredible.
Oh, yeah. 30.
I would say it might even be like,

Speaker 3 yeah, 30.

Speaker 6 If you're out there making lifelong friends past the age of 30, it's because they need something from you or you need something from them.

Speaker 3 I'm going to get a text message actually. We're going to probably get text messages from people after this discussion, but I think the rule is like every year past 30, you lose two friends.
Yeah.

Speaker 3 Just not even on purpose. I'd say just you lose track of friends and then eventually you just die with no one.
Yeah, I'd say if you're not to get bleak, if you're past.

Speaker 3 I lost a lot of money gambling responsibly this weekend, not to get bleak, you die with no one.

Speaker 6 And also, Randy Moss is old. Justin Jefferson is young.
The rule is like divide your age in half plus seven. If they're younger than that, then it's weird to be friends with.

Speaker 3 Acquaintances. You can be acquaintances, not friends.
But yeah, Justin Jefferson, top five wide receiver, he was sensational. He had 100 yards in the first quarter.

Speaker 3 He had two touchdowns. He was absolutely incredible.
The Packers defense got a tiny bit exposed, I'd say.

Speaker 6 Yeah, a little bit, but I'd be more concerned with Mason Crossbar.

Speaker 3 Well, no,

Speaker 3 okay, so I'm happy I'm not concerned about Mason Crosby. I actually think

Speaker 3 if you're a Packers fan and you care about loyalty and you care about community and, you know, you have your stock in your basement, you need to realize that Mason Crosby has done a lot for your organization.

Speaker 3 He's a Packer through and through. And if you don't want him on your team for the rest of the season and through the playoffs, you're a bad fan and you're also disloyal.

Speaker 3 This guy's going through a little something. He'll figure it out.
It will not come back to bite you. Be a good fan.
Keep rooting for Mason Crosby. And I almost say crossbar every single time.

Speaker 6 It's such a good end.

Speaker 3 And you better not say anything mean about him, and you better not cut him.

Speaker 3 Because you've got to be a good fan.

Speaker 6 I would actually like to retract half of what I'm saying about Mason Crossbar because I don't know that it's a Mason Crosby thing.

Speaker 3 He also doesn't hit the crossbar anymore. Yeah.
He misses.

Speaker 6 I think it's the entire field goal unit.

Speaker 6 I don't know how much of it is his fault and how much is the holder's fault because him and the holder, but Jorquez, Bajorquez,

Speaker 6 Bajork, they don't get along. Yeah.
For whatever reason, he doesn't hold the ball the way that Mason likes the ball to be held.

Speaker 6 So I don't know if that makes Mason Crosby a system kicker or if it means that, like, for whatever reason, like the backup quarterback, who's that? Oh, that'd be Jordan Love, right? Yes.

Speaker 6 Is Jordan Love just not a good holder? I don't know. Does he need to sit for a couple years?

Speaker 3 No, he also needs to be loyal to him.

Speaker 6 Behind Bajorkes?

Speaker 3 Mason Crosby and Jordan Love are your future if you're a Packers fan.

Speaker 6 Yeah, also Aaron Rodgers is hurt. He says that he's got a toe injury that's a little

Speaker 6 it's worse than having turf toe. He says it's very, very painful and somebody stepped on it in the first half.
So

Speaker 6 I don't know if it is this Aaron Rodgers just like putting the excuses out there already.

Speaker 3 Also, if you were watching our live stream today, I might have at one point screamed out, break his fucking neck as the Vikings were on a pass rush.

Speaker 3 So that was, I don't remember saying it, but I know I said.

Speaker 6 You weren't rooting for injury.

Speaker 3 You were rooting for lifelong expectation. Yeah, right, you're right, you're rooting for death, it's totally different.
Um, but yeah, the uh, the Vikings-that's a huge, huge win for them.

Speaker 3 They are semi-rolling right now. You want your uh, this doesn't make any sense, Kirk Cousins, Stat of the Day.

Speaker 6 Was he wearing the white wedding ring?

Speaker 3 No, I don't know what he was wearing.

Speaker 6 I think he was wearing the white today.

Speaker 3 Okay, you ready for the Kirk Cousins? This makes no sense because we actually watched this guy play Stat of the Day.

Speaker 3 Uh,

Speaker 3 Kirk Cousins surpassed Aaron Rodgers today

Speaker 3 in

Speaker 3 games where you throw

Speaker 3 300 yards and three touchdowns in your first 10 years in the NFL. It is now Dan Marino one, Kirk Cousins two

Speaker 3 in the whole list of 300-yard, three-touchdown games in your first 10 seasons in the NFL. A lot of surprises.

Speaker 3 It makes no sense. It makes no sense.

Speaker 6 No, it doesn't.

Speaker 3 He has 26 of them.

Speaker 3 Aaron Rodgers had 25 of them.

Speaker 6 The reason why is because Kirk Cousins Cousins very frequently will be playing from behind in games where he has to throw for 300 yards. It's crazy.
He has three touchdowns against a pre-vent defense.

Speaker 6 He's playing well.

Speaker 3 He was taking shots. He was actually throwing it.
Like all the things that

Speaker 3 we say about Kirk Cousins, he did not display those things today.

Speaker 6 It was very un-Kirk-like. And in fact, I think that the interception that he threw, that wasn't his fault.
Yeah. I remember watching.

Speaker 3 Oh, Darnell Savage. I'm counting that.
Darnell Savage, yeah.

Speaker 6 I don't know if that was necessarily completely Kirk's fault or not. but yeah, three touchdowns, 341 yards.
And yeah, he threw for an average of 9.7 yards per completion today.

Speaker 6 Pretty good day at the offense. No, he was.

Speaker 3 He was throwing it. He was not checking it down as much.
So people get mad at us that we give Kirk shit.

Speaker 3 He was good today. He has been good this year.
Let's see how it goes if they get to the playoffs.

Speaker 6 I would like for Aaron Rodgers to make it look like it's a little bit more difficult than it is to play quarterback at least level.

Speaker 3 He's lazy.

Speaker 3 So he'll make some he'll make the most amazing throws and then he'll just be like yeah that's boring can we do something else i can't wait till this game's over so i can go hike in in kawaii with my hot wife he'll miss a throw he'll miss a wide open guy and it will be like maybe if he had tried to not be so uh whatever i'm gonna throw it off my back heel but whatever you can't criticize him that's fine you know i don't want to be salty here i've already said i want to snap his neck so we're good i think it's fine to root for a player to die during a game because that's so far beyond the pale.

Speaker 3 It's crazy. Yeah, it's crazy.

Speaker 6 It would never happen. So it's one thing to be like, oh, I hope this guy tears his ACL.

Speaker 3 It would right now.

Speaker 6 And it's another thing to be like, I hope Aaron Rodgers explodes.

Speaker 3 Yes. Yeah.
Combusts. Yeah.
Lights on fire.

Speaker 6 I mean, that would make for a pretty ridiculous not top 10 moment.

Speaker 3 Yeah. All right.
So Vikings, huge win. They are not in.
No, they are in the playoffs. They are the sixth seed right now, correct?

Speaker 6 Five and five. They are six and ended today.

Speaker 6 They are the sixth seed. The Vikings would be in the playoffs.
Wow.

Speaker 3 So the Vikings are in the playoffs. They have a huge game against the 49ers coming up, which will

Speaker 3 have

Speaker 3 because those are, you know, they're kind of in the same spot trying to fight for that last spot or the last few spots.

Speaker 3 And then they have the Lions, Steelers, and Bears. The Vikings are going to make the playoffs.
The Vikings are going to make the playoffs. They play the Bears.

Speaker 3 They have two games against the Bears and a game against the Lions. That should be a pretty easy 3-0 if they play the 4-inch.

Speaker 6 Where's the 49ers game?

Speaker 3 49ers. It's at 49ers.

Speaker 6 Okay, they're going to win that game.

Speaker 3 Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 3 Although Kyle Shanahan, he knows Kirk Cousins.

Speaker 6 Well,

Speaker 6 he loves him, but loves his ass. It's like he wanted to get him out there, right? I know.

Speaker 3 He still does.

Speaker 6 I think they always will.

Speaker 3 All right, Washington football team 27, Panthers 21.

Speaker 3 Taylor Heineke and the Washington football team bullied the Panthers.

Speaker 6 It was awesome. I loved every second of this game for the most part.
It was a classic story. You had

Speaker 6 a former Panthers dual-threat quarterback returning home, showing out in front of the crowd, and also Cam Newton was there. Taylor Heineke fucking skull fucked him.

Speaker 6 Taylor Heineke is Brett Favre with a bigger dick.

Speaker 3 I love watching Taylor Heineke play when he was saying a lot. No, it's not.

Speaker 6 No, I meant exactly what I said. He's got a completely average-sized penis, probably, the way that he plays.
But like, when he wins, he's so fun to watch. He is just ridiculous.

Speaker 6 The fourth downplay that he had, I think it was fourth and three, and he threw it like sidearm as he was falling down on the ground. It was amazing.

Speaker 6 And the Washington football team right now, I'm thinking Yoffs. I'm thinking that we're going going to the offs.
Yeah. We're not soupy, but it's yoffs season.
And

Speaker 6 I've been running the math here. I've been looking through the numbers, the deep numbers leading into the playoff hunt.

Speaker 6 If we can win with Seattle coming to town, all we have to do then is take care of business against the NFC East, split one against the Cowboys, and I think we're in the offs.

Speaker 3 Yeah, you play your last five games are against the Cowboys, Eagles, and Giants.

Speaker 3 Yeah, I mean, it will be interesting because the NFC East, and obviously we were taping this before the Giants play on Monday night football, but like they're it has quickly become a very respectable division after last year's debacle.

Speaker 3 Like the Eagles are playing well. The Cowboys, obviously, they lost today, but they've been

Speaker 3 playing very well. And the Washington football team on a little two-game winning streak, Taylor Heineke, 38 for 48, 413 yards, four touchdowns, zero interceptions the last two games.

Speaker 6 That's pretty good. He's pretty damn good.

Speaker 3 Terry McLaurin also is like unguardable.

Speaker 6 Yep, he's great.

Speaker 3 You guys ran all over him.

Speaker 6 Yep, and the defense is looking decent now. The defense is rounding into form, and we're getting Montez sweat back in the next couple weeks from his broken jaw.

Speaker 6 So I don't know if he's been eating soup for the last couple weeks or how that's going,

Speaker 6 how you actually heal from a broken jaw. But I'm excited about the Washington football team.
I'm starting to talk myself into Taylor Heineke being the guy again. Again?

Speaker 6 Again, yeah, I've got three straws now, and I feel like he's probably going to be the starting quarterback going into next year, regardless of what happens in the draft.

Speaker 6 Let's just say that we took Kenny Pickett or somebody like that in the draft. I still think that Taylor would be starting week one next year.

Speaker 3 Yeah, I was just looking at it. You guys ran 40 times for 190 yards.
You bullied him.

Speaker 3 You bullied the Panthers.

Speaker 3 Christian McCaffrey is back, though. He looks good.
Cam Newton, his celebration after his touchdown where he ran in the middle of the field, that was,

Speaker 3 as the kids say, extra. Is that what they say? Extra? That was a little extra.

Speaker 3 It was kind of cringe.

Speaker 6 A little cringe.

Speaker 6 It was cringe after the fact, TBH.

Speaker 3 It was a little cringe because it just, it

Speaker 3 took so long for him to get to the middle of the field.

Speaker 3 Like, what is he going to do? What is he going to do? Oh, he's just standing in the middle of the field.

Speaker 6 Well, he spiked it on the Panther at midfield. Also, shout out to Sir Perr, who's apparently a commissioned officer in the military this weekend.
Oh, wow.

Speaker 6 He put on like the full officer uniform with the cap.

Speaker 3 Hell yeah.

Speaker 6 He looked awesome, and to be honest, I really do think that the military should have a mascot. Yes.

Speaker 3 Billy. Yeah, like it's Billy.
It should be Billy.

Speaker 6 Billy wearing like a giant stuffed, like a bald eagle costume rolling around with a Segway.

Speaker 3 Yeah, it should be Billy.

Speaker 6 I would sign up so fast for the military.

Speaker 3 The

Speaker 3 fan rolling up the Yes We Cam poster was so fucking funny. You just got to leave that hanging.
You have to just leave it. You can't take that home with you.

Speaker 3 It was just this sad Panthers fan who was so excited for Cam Newton, which it was, like, admittedly, as a sports fan, it was a cool moment. It was a cool moment.

Speaker 3 Cam Newton, especially when you have a guy, like a younger franchise that hasn't been around forever, Cam Newton is the guy.

Speaker 3 He is the first guy you think of when you think of the Panthers behind maybe Jake Delone. Ray Caruth.
Ray Carruth, Jake Delome, Cam Newton.

Speaker 6 But Greg Olson was pretty quick to drop the old Hollywood could not write a script like this. Cam Newton coming back to the Panthers.

Speaker 6 If you went into a script meeting in Hollywood, California, they would stab you with a knife.

Speaker 6 Even suggesting this.

Speaker 3 They wouldn't be able to read it because it would all be in Cam's hieroglyphics.

Speaker 6 It's actually like one of the more common tropes is the prodigal son returning. Yeah.
It's like 50% of all movies.

Speaker 3 He'd have to win a Super Bowl for me to be like, wow, this is crazy.

Speaker 6 They would snap your neck in Hollywood.

Speaker 3 More likely, they're not going to go to the playoffs. And we're going to be like, wow, that was fun that time he came back.
But he looked okay.

Speaker 3 And yeah, the Yes We Cam poster, she was just sitting there.

Speaker 3 I don't know if it was a he or she was just rolling it up like, all right, well, gonna bring this one back to the garage, and we'll be back next Sunday with the yes we can. Cam still around.

Speaker 6 Cam did have a sick touchdown pass, though, to Christian McCaffrey. Yes, he did.

Speaker 6 That was really nice. Like, that was vintage Cam Newton right there.

Speaker 3 Yeah, he looks better than he did last year.

Speaker 6 He remembered how to throw football this year. Maybe it's the weather in Carolina.
I don't know what it is. But yeah, he's got a normal throwing motion.
He's still very fast, very strong.

Speaker 6 When he gets in the red area,

Speaker 6 he can still run over most people. He's still one of the best short-yardage options in the history of professional football.

Speaker 6 So, if you're going to be the Panthers and you're not going to have really a shot at the playoffs this year, it's good that Cam's around.

Speaker 3 They still do have a shot at the playoffs because everyone has a shot at the playoffs because the seventh playoff spot, I actually hate it.

Speaker 3 It's totally fucked up my brain where I see a team that's under 500 at this point in the season. I'm like, no chance.

Speaker 3 But then we just talked about the Washington football team maybe going to the Yoffs and the Eagles being like a Yoff team. Yeah, so it makes no sense.

Speaker 6 We're in the conversation for being in the hunt for the yoffs that's that's all i want right now we're still ahead of schedule from where we were last year nobody thought we were in the offs last year yeah and guess what we're here we're back bitch the vikings are firmly in the offs at five and five oh also

Speaker 6 this hat is 2-0 since i found this rg3 hat in times square for the low low price of five dollars from a street vendor hell yes been rocking it it's my magic luck hat now i love it i love it you gotta you can never take it off never never ever take it off um all right let's stay in Until we're out of the offs, I'm wearing this every weekend.

Speaker 3 There you go. Until you win the Super Bowl.
If you win the Super Bowl,

Speaker 3 that hat goes to Ken. Yes, absolutely.
All right, let's stay in the NFC East. The Eagles, Saints, the Eagles have found something.

Speaker 3 Credit to Nick Siriani. We've made fun of him a lot.
He wins his first game in Philadelphia. They have definitely found something offensively.

Speaker 3 I actually am now, and I don't, I would love for Eagles fans to tell us how they're feeling, but I'm starting to see like you have three first-round picks.

Speaker 3 I'm starting to see a world where, like, maybe Jalen Hurts is the guy if you run the ball a shitload and figure, you know, like, because he can make a few throws here and there.

Speaker 3 You can't ask him to throw it 50 times, but he's so dynamic running the ball, and they're so good running the ball with their offensive line. There's a path.

Speaker 3 So, Nick Siriana, you get your first win in Philadelphia. He definitely is going to go to like Geno's or Pat's or both and do a TikTok or something and be like, I'm a real Philadelphian.
Yep.

Speaker 3 But that was this, the Eagles have found something, and

Speaker 3 they are also, there's a couple teams out there that are semi-rolling. Eagles are definitely one of them.

Speaker 6 Eagles are rolling. Darius Slay, he scored one touchdown in his first 125 NFL games.
He scored three touchdowns in his last four games since becoming a dad.

Speaker 6 I don't know if he was already a dad, but since having the most recent child, he's got the opposite of whatever postpartum depression is.

Speaker 3 That was an all-time bad interception by Trevor Seaman. There was like 10 seconds left in the half.

Speaker 3 The Saints had had a bad half, but they were, okay, we're not totally dead. Oh, let me throw a pick six that was a no-doubter.
Just he picked that off, and no one was even close to him.

Speaker 6 I think that the Eagles, or excuse me, the Saints, I don't know what Sean Payton's waiting for.

Speaker 3 Call Phillip Rivers right now.

Speaker 6 Well, Simeon is not the guy. Call Phillip Rivers.
He's probably going to be itching to get out of the house after Thanksgiving when he has his entire family over. Yes.

Speaker 6 Call Phillip Rivers, get him working, or at the very least, get Tebow back there and do the Taysom Hill Tebow, like duo and varsity Tebow. That would be sick.

Speaker 6 The wing and a prayer offense.

Speaker 3 I mean, the Saints are dealing with, obviously,

Speaker 3 I think both their guards were out.

Speaker 3 Yeah, both their starting guards were out. They also, obviously, Camara's not out, which is, he's

Speaker 3 incredible, but this is a problem. When he's out, he is like 90% of your offense, not only catching, but, you know, not only running, but catching.

Speaker 6 It's like when Christian McCaffrey is out for the Panthers.

Speaker 3 That's the exact thing. You just lose everything.

Speaker 3 But

Speaker 3 the Saints defense is still awesome, and they have a top five rushing run defense in the league, and the Eagles were able to just push them around, and the Eagles were able to run all over them.

Speaker 3 I think

Speaker 3 they ran for 242 yards. Jalen Hurts had three touchdowns.
I don't know. I came away from that game being like, listen, the Saints have problems.
We knew they had problems. They're on Trevor Simeon.

Speaker 3 They have injuries everywhere. But the Eagles, like, the Saints are still a team that if you get, you can't sleep on them.
You know what I mean?

Speaker 3 Like, they might have a bunch of injuries, but they're not an easy out, and the Eagles kind of made it an easy out for them.

Speaker 6 I still feel like if Sean Payton actually sticks with Trevor Simeon through the end of the season and doesn't make an effort to do something about it.

Speaker 3 We called Teddy Bridgewater.

Speaker 6 Yeah, he would, but he's... You know, he did.

Speaker 3 He did.

Speaker 6 He tried. He tried to get Bridgewater back on the team.
Yeah.

Speaker 6 Yeah, I mean, he needs to do something different because otherwise, and this is the craziest part, is the Saints are still in the playoffs right now. I feel like they've been.

Speaker 3 Everyone's in the playoffs. Everyone's in the playoffs right now.

Speaker 6 But the Saints feel like a team that's way worse than their 5-5 record right now based off how they played recently.

Speaker 6 But I feel like Sean Payton is just kind of playing the draft pick game without saying out loud he's playing the draft pick game if he sticks with Simeon.

Speaker 3 Right. Right.

Speaker 6 I'm not a professional talent evaluator at quarterback, believe it or not, as smart as I am, but Sean Payton can tell that Trevor Simeon stinks.

Speaker 3 If the Saints just win the games they're supposed to win, they will finish 9-7.

Speaker 3 If they win the games they're going to be favored in,

Speaker 3 they will finish 9-7.

Speaker 3 And so there's still a chance for them to go to the playoffs, but obviously the last three games, they lost to the Falcons, the Titans, and the Eagles after they had that huge win against the Bucs, and it hasn't looked pretty.

Speaker 3 And I don't know, maybe you just hope that everyone gets healthy.

Speaker 3 I guess that's really all you can do. Just hope.

Speaker 6 They always say hope is not a strategy. That's bullshit.
Hope is a great strategy.

Speaker 6 You just think positive thoughts, and you just hope that the universe takes care of all the actual steps and processes for you.

Speaker 3 I'll tell you one thing. I'm actually going to say it right now.
Now, obviously, it

Speaker 3 doesn't actually eliminate either team, but I'm declaring Thursday night, Thanksgiving night, loser leaves town. Saints? Saints, Bills.
Bills.

Speaker 3 Loser, if you lose that game and you're if you're the bills and you lose that game to a hobbled Saints team, it's over. And if you're the Saints and you lose that game, it's probably over.

Speaker 3 It might have been over anyway, but it's probably over because now you've lost four in a row. It's really,

Speaker 6 really over.

Speaker 3 And you've got to play the Cows.

Speaker 6 But then, yeah, if the Bills lose it, they're in deep trouble.

Speaker 3 The Bills should win this. It might be a loser-leaves town.

Speaker 3 They might declare it a loser-leaves town.

Speaker 6 It might be. I mean, Bills fans in New Orleans are going to have the time of their life.

Speaker 3 Oh, it's going to be so good. That's going to be great.
So good.

Speaker 6 You talk about the drunkest people in America. Going to be incredible.

Speaker 3 Godspeed.

Speaker 6 Jalen Hurts, you're right, though. Like, looking at his stats right now and looking at the Philadelphia rushing stats,

Speaker 6 the Eagles are building something. They're three running backs.
They're three top running backs. They might have the best three-headed monster that there is.

Speaker 6 When you're talking about Miles Sanders, Jordan Howard, and Boston Scott, all pretty good options.

Speaker 3 Miles Sanders had like six yards, six and a half yards per carry today against a good Saints defense.

Speaker 3 I'm going to give even more credit to Nick Siriani. I actually don't really know.

Speaker 3 I need to listen to our friend Big Ange down in Philadelphia to get a pulse on Eagles fans and big ant big ant yeah his name's angelo no no that's a different guy we called him angelo we assumed his name it was angelo his name's anthony we assumed his name i love that guy when i meet somebody out in philadelphia i assume that their name is is angelo maybe we should have him at the moment

Speaker 3 philly fans or we'll wait till there's a big eagles game and then we'll have him on when you guys held him on hold for a long time yeah that was mean of us but he was being mean to us he started the radio war against us and then in in a twist of fate he was like i actually am just jealous of you guys.

Speaker 3 That was awesome.

Speaker 6 And then he became our best friend. It was a good moment.
And I talked to him.

Speaker 3 I love talking.

Speaker 6 I mean, he is the most Philadelphia person ever.

Speaker 3 He's one of my friends I lost in 2019. Yep, yeah.
We made a friend. Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 3 But I actually am very curious where Eagles fans, we will ask Smitty and Roan, but like Nick Siriani

Speaker 3 is doing a very good job with the Eagles because

Speaker 3 he is proving that it's not about who you have on your team. It's about making that, like, playing to their strengths.
Like, Like Jalen Hurts is not a prototypical pocket passer.

Speaker 3 If you want to make him just try to pass the ball all game long, you're going to fail. And they said, hey, we have a really good offensive line, an experienced offensive line that can dominate teams.

Speaker 3 We have some good running backs. We have Jalen Hurts.
Let's change our entire philosophy and let's become a run first, like run all the time team.

Speaker 3 And then every now and then throw it to Devontae Smith, who's incredible.

Speaker 3 I just, I don't know.

Speaker 3 I think they just deserve a ton of credit for what they're doing because I feel like if you look at the Eagles from September, you'd think that they were completely lost, and everyone was saying, Well, we have three draft picks, and that's all we're going to look forward to.

Speaker 3 Now they legitimately have a chance to go to the playoffs, and they're playing really good football going into December.

Speaker 6 If Nick Siriani can put it together with this Eagles team, get him to the playoffs, we need to start having the like boy genius conversation about Nick Siriani.

Speaker 3 Seriously, though, like we don't give enough, we bash guys all the time, and I'm saying with the Royal We in the media, obviously.

Speaker 6 Not just us, not just us, he is sucking up to to the city of Philadelphia. I would be remiss if I didn't call that out.

Speaker 3 Yeah, no, of course. And he also had some very weird press conferences and some weird analogies that he threw out there.

Speaker 3 But he has figured out a way to, and they've won three or four, so it's not like they're lighting the world on fire, but... They're doing enough to make the team competitive.

Speaker 3 And we've said it many, many times. Not everyone can be a great team.
Sometimes it's just nice to have your team be like, hey, Sunday, I'm looking forward to watching them. And the fertilizer.

Speaker 6 It's been a while. I'm starting starting to see a little bit of plant growth through the fertilizer, through the shit.

Speaker 6 Because if you got fertilizer, either there are three options. One, you just have a giant field of shit.
Two, you have a car bomb that's going to explode eventually.

Speaker 3 And then three McVay.

Speaker 6 Well, yep, too soon. Okay.
And then third, you've got the little bit plant, the little, like, tiny little flower that's starting to poke through.

Speaker 3 It's budding through.

Speaker 6 I'm seeing a little posy poking through that.

Speaker 3 Something there. And then, you know, maybe Howie Roseman goes and just steps on it and smushes it, but we don't know.
Or he's like, I grew this. Yeah, I grew this.
It's me, Howie.

Speaker 3 Yeah, Jeffrey Lurie, look at this. I grew this right here, this plant.

Speaker 3 All right.

Speaker 1 What's up, guys? It's Big Cat here making my Irish entrance with proper number 12 Irish whiskey. How do you make an Irish entrance, you ask?

Speaker 1 It starts with a shot of proper number 12 Irish whiskey because real friends don't let friends Irish exit a party without a story to tell.

Speaker 1 Original proper number 12 is rich in a smooth blend of golden grain and single malt. Age four years in bourbon barrels.
Mix it up with some ginger ale for a classic and refreshing proper ginger.

Speaker 1 In the mood for something smooth but a little sweeter, try proper Irish apple, a delicious blend of proper's award-winning Irish whiskey with crisp, fresh notes of apple.

Speaker 1 So get out there and make your Irish entrance. Anything else just wouldn't be proper.

Speaker 3 Next up, 49ers, 30. Jags, 10.
49ers,

Speaker 3 this was a big question of coming off a big Monday night game against the Rams, dominated them, riding high. Can you get up for a one o'clock game against the Jacksonville Jaguars? And yes, they did.

Speaker 3 Starting with,

Speaker 3 I'm still mad at Kyle Shanahan for kicking a field goal on that opening drive, but that has to be the longest field goal drive. It might be the longest field goal drive ever.

Speaker 3 We'll have our stats guy look it up. They went 13 minutes and five seconds, 20 plays, and then kicked a field goal from the one.
Yeah.

Speaker 6 I would feel like that was such a waste of my time at that point. Like, forget about the actual mathematics and advanced analytics or win probability behind kicking that field goal.

Speaker 6 I would just be like, what did we just do? I can't believe I just spent all that time calling plays for three points.

Speaker 6 That felt like I used enough energy where it should be worth seven points worth of my voice.

Speaker 3 Yes, it was baffling. I don't know why they did that, but I guess now that I'm talking it through, yeah, you kind of have to.
If you go 13 minutes and

Speaker 3 20 plays, you have to walk away with something. Well, you can't.

Speaker 3 We got nothing out of it.

Speaker 6 You're playing against the Jaguars, so three points might as well be 14. But also, you don't want to give the Jaguars that little tiny bit of hope.

Speaker 6 Because I just assume that the Jaguars start out every game, and their fan base does, too. We know several Jaguars fans.
You just start out every game with zero hope.

Speaker 6 And if they give you just like a slight window, the door creases open a little bit, and there's a faint bit of light at the end of the hallway, you're like, wow, we can win a football game, maybe.

Speaker 6 So you don't want to give that to them.

Speaker 3 You're exactly right because Urban Meyer said, in fact, you know, we always talk about coach speak and, you know, looking at yourself in the mirror and or if you're Matt Nagy saying no one's to blame but everyone.

Speaker 3 But Urban Meyer is now at the phase of the Jaguars season where he's saying, we're not far off. I refuse to believe we're far off.
Okay. So he's trying to.

Speaker 6 He actually corrected himself with the second part of that song. So he said, we're not far off.
Well, at least me personally, I don't want, if we are far off, I I don't want to acknowledge that.

Speaker 3 Yeah, no one tell me we're far off because I'm not going to hear it.

Speaker 3 Don't even put any signs around me that say we're far off. Yeah, no, you're right.

Speaker 6 That this was really for the Niners, it was more of a test of do you consider yourselves to be professionals? Right. Because you just had a big win.

Speaker 6 Now you're playing a game everyone thinks that you should win, anyways. If you feel like you have a job that you want to keep for a while, this is a game that you should easily win.

Speaker 3 I also

Speaker 3 broke up publicly with Kyle Shanahan a couple weeks ago.

Speaker 3 I just couldn't take it anymore because I've always been a big Kyle Shanahan guy. I've always defended him and the results weren't there.

Speaker 3 I think he's personally trying to win me back because what he did today, he was like, hey, you know what? I'm Kyle Shanahan. I'm going to make Debo Samuel the best fucking running back in the NFL.

Speaker 3 So Debo Samuel carried it for eight times for 79 yards today in a touchdown. And he's just like, yeah, I'm going to do it because I can't.

Speaker 6 Well, sometimes coaches, they just see a player who's really good running with a football, and they're like, hey, why don't we let this guy run with the football more often? Yeah.

Speaker 6 As opposed to just falling into the old trick of this guy plays wide receiver, so why would we ever hand the ball?

Speaker 3 But it catches the ball. It was like, what the fuck?

Speaker 3 This is cool. They just made their best wide receiver their best running back because they had one guy hurt.

Speaker 6 No, literally anybody, I think, could step in. It's mostly Kyle Shanahan, when he stands next to you, you become a great running back.
Yes.

Speaker 6 If he breathes on you, if you share a meal with Kyle Shanahan,

Speaker 6 you can average 4.7 yards a carry in his own blocking scene. Yeah,

Speaker 3 you can put your foot in the dirt and go. One cut.
That's all you need.

Speaker 6 Also, here's a fun stat about Jimmy G.

Speaker 6 He has the highest winning percentage on the road of any quarterback since the year 2000. Wow.
Any quarterback. Wow.
He's Mr. Road.
Wow. He's a roadhead.
He is. Big-time guy on the road.

Speaker 6 So, I mean, you can say that, okay, that doesn't really count because it's a quarterback win stat. You could also say, like, Kyle Jusek has the highest winning percentage of any fullback in the NFL.

Speaker 3 You could say Kirk Cousins has the most 300-yard, three-touchdown performances in the first 10 years.

Speaker 6 Jimmy G wins football games on the road, one way or another.

Speaker 3 It is a fact. You cannot disagree with it.
Yeah, you can't.

Speaker 6 You can say that I'm dumb for bringing it up, but guess what?

Speaker 3 It's correct. Yeah, and we like dumb facts on this show.

Speaker 3 I just love the fact that I know obviously it's because Dan Mullen coached for Urban Meyer, and Urban Meyer obviously coached at Florida, but I just like the fact that Dan Mullen got brought up in Urban Meyer's press conference just because it's going to be fun.

Speaker 3 He was like, he's a good friend of mine. I'm going to call him and his wife.
I didn't hear that. Makeout.
Yeah, make out probably. It's probably triple kiss.

Speaker 6 How upset do you think Lane Kiffin is? Because there are going to be rumors that he's going to take the Florida job, too.

Speaker 6 He's going to be like, hey, can your wife stick around and just kiss everyone that gets off the bus?

Speaker 3 I'm loving the fact that we're getting to a point now with the college coaching world that every single job that Urban Meyer would potentially ever want or has had is going to open up just to entice him to possibly come back and coach in the college running.

Speaker 6 I mean, now all we need is Brian Kelly to have some shocking scandal at Notre Dame.

Speaker 3 Brian Kelly and then Ryan Day

Speaker 3 decides to go to the NFL and we got everything. We have everything that Urban could ever want.

Speaker 6 Whoever the coach at Utah is too.

Speaker 3 Yeah.

Speaker 3 All right.

Speaker 3 I do think Trevor Lawrence is, I don't know what's going on.

Speaker 3 Well, yeah, no one's. He's like not.

Speaker 6 I think he's a bust. Actually, I've talked myself into thinking that Trevor Lawrence is not going to be a good NFL quarterback.
He's not handling losing well.

Speaker 6 That was our big concern about him going into this year. I don't think, like, you can't say, you definitely can't say that he's handling losing well.

Speaker 3 No.

Speaker 6 But maybe you could say that he's not handling it terribly because he hasn't fully

Speaker 3 quoted.

Speaker 6 He hasn't quit. Yeah, he hasn't tried to fight Urban Meyer yet.
Right. So I guess he's handling losing averagely.

Speaker 3 I just don't know why they don't, like,

Speaker 3 back to the Nick Siriani conversation. Why don't they just run Clemson's offense for a year?

Speaker 3 Why don't they just, like, I know you don't want to get him hurt because he ran a little bit at Clemson, a lot of RPOs, but just do something that makes him feel comfortable so he gets his confidence back.

Speaker 3 You have to let him get a couple easy shots in. You know what I mean? Like, compliment your boy.
Yeah. Just give him a couple compliments.
Make him feel good about himself.

Speaker 3 Maybe he will be able to play better than he is right now.

Speaker 6 I think this is just, it's becoming a situation where it's impossible to evaluate him. I'm going to need at least three years of tape on Trevor Lawrence before I make a definitive declaration.

Speaker 6 But he's there's some bust smells coming from him.

Speaker 3 Yes, I'd agree. I would agree.

Speaker 3 Some stink coming from him. Also, Nick Bosa is we kind of forgot about him because he got injured last year and he missed the whole year.
He's officially a full-on game record. He's back back.

Speaker 3 He's a game record. He had his 10th sack today.
I think he had two.

Speaker 3 And then I saw a stat that a quarter of his pass rushes today, he got a QB pressure, which is pretty damn good. That is good.
So I think he's back to being a full-on game record.

Speaker 6 I don't want to bring up a sore subject here, big cat, but Robbie Gold, why did the Bears let him go?

Speaker 3 Because

Speaker 6 it was explained at the time that he's not the future of the position in Chicago and that he's getting old. And since he's been in San Francisco, he's been really, really good.

Speaker 3 I want to give you the opportunity to explore that thing.

Speaker 6 It makes no sense.

Speaker 3 I mean, everyone loved him. He did kind of suck.

Speaker 3 he he had one of those like kick this is actually a good point to bring back to packers fans is why you stick through the bad times uh he did have a bad year like he had a bad year where he was missing a lot of kicks um i can't remember what year he did also have the year where he got in a fight with brandon marshall uh that was under tressman though so i think he hung around for a couple more years that was always

Speaker 3 when your wide receiver

Speaker 3 yeah but when your wide receiver and kicker are having like locker room fights in the like week eight that's never a good thing when your kicker feels emboldened that's more of a coach's thing though like if your kicker feels emboldened to pick a fight with a non-kicker on the team that's just bad organization from from a structural standpoint like yes i'd agree with you your kicker a little bit more beaten down than that that actually wasn't too far off from the time that that uh that happened but yeah he had like one of those years where you're like wait is he getting old he missed six kicks which was off of his usual

Speaker 3 uh but yeah no it was a big mistake it was a huge mistake the bears shouldn't have done that i also think it was something about money. I can't.

Speaker 3 The Bears have made so many stupid things in the last forever.

Speaker 3 Forever is a long time, but it's felt like forever.

Speaker 3 You just pile it on. You just throw it on.
You're like, oh, yeah, fuck.

Speaker 3 I still like that guy. Still root for him.

Speaker 6 Just a little sidebar here. I'm getting a little bit concerned, big cat.
I feel like Jake is really struggling to breathe over here. I don't know.
Are you...

Speaker 6 Did you not take your medicine?

Speaker 6 You haven't been taking your affrin.

Speaker 3 It's really cold in here, so that makes you a little stuffy.

Speaker 6 You're really stuffy. Yeah.

Speaker 3 Sorry.

Speaker 6 You're off the afrin though, right?

Speaker 3 Yeah.

Speaker 3 I've dabbled a little bit, but I'm kind of scarred from last year.

Speaker 6 You can't even dabble with the affrin, Jake.

Speaker 3 You'll

Speaker 3 be able to smelling salts in my face.

Speaker 3 It will help. Yeah, it might clear it up, but.

Speaker 6 You should carry around those chips that say how long it's been since you've had a bad one. Yeah, apologies if I'm a distraction.

Speaker 3 No, you're not. You're not.

Speaker 6 I'm just worried about you. Thank you.
I don't want anybody to die during this show.

Speaker 3 Now I'm going down a maybe kick they feel like he missed a kick against the giants or something then everyone's like man he's probably washed up but he wasn't he's not washed up why'd you do that to me i'm sorry i'm just why'd you do that because i saw him no because i remember i remember the day i was like no he's been very good for the last couple years why did this happen i remember it happening and being like it was a transition time i want to say it was When Tressman was going out, might have been,

Speaker 3 I can't remember.

Speaker 3 The timeline is just so shitty now, but I just remember he missed a couple kicks and everyone's like, uh-oh, and then he was just good again because everyone gets good when they leave the Bears.

Speaker 3 All right, so we might as well, because we're here. Ravens 16, Bears 13.

Speaker 3 I don't really know what to say at this point. They're such a poorly coached team.

Speaker 3 The Bears, you want to know a fun fact? The Bears haven't won a game off of the bye since 2013.

Speaker 6 That's pretty bad.

Speaker 3 That's a pretty awful game. Yeah, isn't that crazy? No, no, no, it is.

Speaker 6 It is actually crazy.

Speaker 3 Here's another one. Matt Nagy's 0-4 off the bye.
So that's bad, right? But in his defense, he's played against really good quarterbacks. He played against Aaron Rodgers.

Speaker 3 One of those four losses is Aaron Rodgers. Teddy Bridgewater, ever heard of him?

Speaker 3 Tyler Huntley today. Yep.
Brock Osweiler. Great card.
Ever heard of him? Yeah. Matt Nagy has lost, he's 0-4 off the bye.
Three out of four of those are against backup quarterbacks.

Speaker 6 I think he just overthinks things. You want Matt Nagy to be playing on as little rest as possible.
I mean, he beat Tom Brady on, what, four days?

Speaker 3 Oh, my God.

Speaker 6 Once he starts thinking about stuff too much, then it all goes sideways for him. And now we've got, thanks to the Bears, we've got Andy Dalton and Tim Boyle matching up on Thanksgiving day.
I'm sorry.

Speaker 6 I'm sorry. Yeah, thank you for apologizing.

Speaker 3 I'm sorry.

Speaker 6 If you watch that game in its entirety, you should actually get the USAA insurance that Ron Bronkowski is angling for.

Speaker 3 You have to watch that game. It's so, so bad.
It's also the unstoppable force versus the immovable object because the Lions, I have thought for the entire, you guys have heard me saying it.

Speaker 3 It's actually like disgusting that I keep saying it because it's an obsessive-compulsive disorder that I think the Lions are going to get their first win against the Bears on Thanksgiving Day.

Speaker 3 I just say it every week. I'm like, it's going to happen.
It's going to happen. It's going to happen in front of everyone.
Everyone's going to sit down and watch it.

Speaker 3 And there's a small part of you that says, well, if the Lions get their first win on Thanksgiving Day,

Speaker 3 the Bears will definitely fire Matt Nagy, right? Yeah.

Speaker 3 Well, no, because the Bears have never fired a coach in the middle of a season in the history of their franchise. The Bears are a charter member of the NFL.

Speaker 6 Well, that's good. That's good because you've got the Bears' way.
No, but then you're going to lose a lot more games this season, and then you're going to get a better draft pick.

Speaker 3 It's insane. Yeah.

Speaker 3 Thanks. Thank you.

Speaker 6 No, that's good. Yeah.

Speaker 3 The last thing that you're doing. The draft pick we don't have.
Yeah. I know.
Oh, I forgot about that. No, I know you do.
I know you didn't. I keep making that joke.
You can't make that back at me.

Speaker 3 My fault.

Speaker 6 I actually did forget about it, but I'm going to now make it it on purpose.

Speaker 3 Oh, I make it all the time, and people are like, dude, you don't have a first-round pick. Like, I fucking know I don't have a paper.

Speaker 6 Well, at least you still have the guy that you trade the first-round pick for.

Speaker 3 He's got ribs. He's going to be okay.
There's just ribs, a little bruise, little bruised rib.

Speaker 6 Oh, I was talking about the other guy that you trade a first-round pick away for.

Speaker 3 Listen, the Raiders. Khalil Max still playing really well, right? How are the Raiders guys doing? Not so well.
I actually don't think it was Henry Ruggs that was part of that pick package.

Speaker 6 Lamar Jackson, we need to have a conversation. I'm worried about Lamar Jackson.
I think maybe he has celiac disease.

Speaker 6 Maybe he's, Billy was saying maybe he's got Crohn's.

Speaker 3 I don't know what it is, but he's still sick.

Speaker 6 He's got the worst butthole in North America.

Speaker 3 Yeah, and it's clearly not a contagious sick because he was at the game.

Speaker 3 Like they saw him walk into the facility.

Speaker 6 Do you see how he's walking around? He was doing the verbal meme when the Chipotle hits.

Speaker 3 Do you think he's just angling for a Pepto-Bismal sponsorship?

Speaker 6 He might be doing that. I don't know.

Speaker 6 He's always sick. Maybe he's like that kid in elementary school that just hates taking tests.
Yeah. And they're always sick on test day.

Speaker 3 Yeah, but why would you hate playing the Bears? You're going to just rack up yards against the Bears. That's a good point.
Like, that was the one game you should play. But either way, the.

Speaker 6 Tyler Huntley didn't lose it. Congratulations.

Speaker 3 Tyler Hundley.

Speaker 6 Not Brett. I always get him confused with Brett Hunt, the UCLA quarterback.

Speaker 3 Yeah, Brett Hundley. Yes.
This is Tyler Huntley. Tyler Huntley.
What did he do? Huntley. What does he do? He, whoo.

Speaker 3 It's,

Speaker 3 yeah, he, and they lost in such a Bears way, like, almost winning. Andy Dalton, nice guy.
Really nice guy. Made a couple big throws, but I just, I'm so sick of these guys.

Speaker 3 I'll leave it with this because I don't want to talk about this godforsaken shit team and organization much longer.

Speaker 3 Although Virginia McCasky sitting in the suite, that was actually the summed up the whole thing. Virginia McCasky's like 120 years old.
Never mind.

Speaker 3 She's sitting up in the suite, and the sun is just fucking, she's raw dogging the sun. It's just beaming right in her eyes.
That sun is going to kill her. And I don't know.

Speaker 3 Maybe that's what they want to do. Maybe that's what they're trying to do.
Maybe that's all the kids and grandkids so they can sell the team and get some money.

Speaker 3 But can we get this fucking lady some sunglasses? She doesn't deserve to go out like this.

Speaker 3 She couldn't see a thing, which, again, now that I'm saying it, might have actually been by design so they could be like, yeah, we played really well today.

Speaker 3 Either way, that sequence, the Bears midfield,

Speaker 3 third and one. They take a deep shot.

Speaker 3 And they're playing Tyler Huntley. So, like, punting isn't the worst idea here because you back him up and let him try to figure out.
They take a deep shot, third and one. Matt Nagy's headset breaks.

Speaker 3 He freaks out at everyone.

Speaker 6 Oh, he tried to fight the NFL officials, the guy that wears the yellow hat on the sidelines.

Speaker 3 Again, it's not his fault. It's everyone's fault.

Speaker 3 He takes a timeout, which, okay, you didn't know what you're going to do on fourth down, but whatever. Your headset broke.

Speaker 3 I guess you have to, even though you're standing right next to your special teams coach. Takes a timeout, then runs Wildcat.
It gets stuffed. And also, we got called for holding.
That's hard to do.

Speaker 3 That's hard to do.

Speaker 3 This team is a fucking joke. Matt Nagy's a joke.
He's not going to get fired. I'm going to have to watch him for the rest of the year.

Speaker 3 I'm going to watch his stupid face and his squint being like, no one has things go wrong more than Matt Nagy. And he just stares and is like, how could this possibly be going wrong?

Speaker 3 You, dude, you, like, someone just go walk up in front of him and put a mirror in front of his face while he's doing this stupid thing that he thinks is coaching.

Speaker 6 I'm just excited to see what he says this week during his press conferences that will literally drive you insane.

Speaker 3 He's really good at it. I mean, dude, he said taunting.
Kids are watching.

Speaker 6 Yeah, Matt Nagy is the best coach ever in the history of the NFL at saying the worst stuff ever in this press conference.

Speaker 3 He's so dumb. He's so dumb.

Speaker 6 It's like he knows that it's going to piss you off, particularly.

Speaker 3 Everyone.

Speaker 6 I think he's engaged in a season-long silent feud against you.

Speaker 3 And he's not going to get fired.

Speaker 6 No, he's not going to get fired during the year, but he's done after this.

Speaker 3 Think about this, though. He's going to lose to the Lions.
The Lions are going to get their first win. Dan Campbell's going to get his first win with Tim Boyle.

Speaker 3 And the Bears won't fire him because it's the Bears' way to not fire a coach midseason.

Speaker 6 I actually don't, I'm not so sure about that.

Speaker 3 It's the Bears' way. It's the Bears' way.

Speaker 6 You have to prepare yourself for the worst-case scenario at all times, but

Speaker 6 I don't think that the Bears are going to lose that game on the field.

Speaker 3 It's the Bears' way. It's the Bears' way.
And he don't look pretty good today.

Speaker 6 Thoughts and prayers to Justin Fields with his rib and apparently a spleen. Yeah.
He's got a spleen, too.

Speaker 3 No, I'm sure something horrific will happen to him. I've said it many times.
If the Bears have drafted Patrick Mahomes, you've got to hit him by a bus on the Michigan Ave.

Speaker 6 So, initial tests done on Bears quarterback Justin Fields today did not reveal any broken ribs per source.

Speaker 3 I confirmed that.

Speaker 6 Fields' ribs will be, will undergo further tests on Monday. Yeah.
So I don't know what further tests they're going to re-x-ray his ribs.

Speaker 3 They're going to poke it and be like, Does it hurt? They're going to hit it.

Speaker 6 Yeah. And be like, did we break it now?

Speaker 3 He's going to keep touching it. Ow, that hurts.
Ow, that doesn't hurt. Ow, that hurts.

Speaker 3 All right.

Speaker 3 Speaking of the Lions, let's talk about the Lions. Lions

Speaker 3 put up some fight. Tim Boyle,

Speaker 3 you tried.

Speaker 6 Tim Boyle significantly outperformed my Tim Boyle expectations.

Speaker 3 Made

Speaker 3 Jared Goff's a friend, so we're not going to bash him because we do love him.

Speaker 3 He hasn't had the best season, but if you thought that Tim Boyle was better than Jared Goff, like, no. No,

Speaker 6 Jared Goff gives you your best chance to win right now. Jared Goff with two strained obliques gives you a better job than Tim Boyle.
Tim Boyle, he had a great game by Tim Boyle standards.

Speaker 6 We should say that. The fact that he has completed, I think, three passes in his NFL history going into today, he significantly outperformed that margin.

Speaker 6 Yes, he had a couple bad interceptions, but that's what you get when you sign Tim Boyle, former UConn standout. Here's the bad part about Tim Boyle.
I don't even think he was a standout at UConn. No.

Speaker 6 I think he was like a very average UConn quarterback who's now playing in the NFL.

Speaker 3 Yes.

Speaker 3 Or Lofsky was good. Or Lofsky was

Speaker 6 nice at UConn. Yes.
Dan was good at UConn.

Speaker 3 Tim Boyle. Tim Boyle was kind of...
Mad nice.

Speaker 6 Kind of like a game manager at UConn.

Speaker 3 Something about Lion, the Lions just love UConn quarterbacks. Tim Boyle, like his name is just funny.

Speaker 3 Tim Boyle is

Speaker 3 a friend of a friend who

Speaker 3 opens up a bar and then it fails within like six months. Yeah, oh, Boyle's.
He's like, I never got to go there. Oh, oh, like, did you hear like Derek's friend Tim? He opened up a bar.

Speaker 3 We should go check it out. And then like three months later, you say, oh, yeah, should we go check out the, oh, no, it's already, he's already running into the ground.
Yeah, Tim Boyle is not a guy.

Speaker 6 He's a guy that you would love to have like assistant managing your bar,

Speaker 6 but that he inherits some money and he tries to do it too soon. And he's like, I think I'm ready to take that next step and open up O'Boyle's.

Speaker 3 I think you call him assistant manager, but you never let him manage without you there. Yeah.

Speaker 6 You make the schedule. Yeah.
And then you just have your own schedule and you're like, okay, great job.

Speaker 3 I'll take it together, Tim. Yeah, appreciate it, Tim.
Yeah. Yeah,

Speaker 3 Tim Boyle is the guy who you make him assistant manager just so that when he has to get into that like once every two months fist fight with the drunkest guy at the bar, you can be like, well, that is what the assistant manager has to do.

Speaker 6 Yeah, great job, Tim. You're right.

Speaker 3 Thanks, Tim. Yeah, there's another guy.

Speaker 6 Thanks, Tim. There's another guy puking in the bathroom as assistant manager.
I think that falls under your purview to go to the bottom.

Speaker 3 That's why we pay you the big bucks, Tim.

Speaker 6 Yeah, Tim Boyle has one great idea at your bar. He's like, I'm thinking Thursday night, ladies' night.
Great job, Tim.

Speaker 3 And then he runs off that.

Speaker 6 He puts that on every resume when he applies for a job outside the service industry. He's like, initiated new marketing features at the bar, which increase food sales 125%

Speaker 6 on Thursday nights. Yeah, you made it so hot chicks got in free time.
Yes.

Speaker 3 And Tim also,

Speaker 3 this is getting very specific for any Tim Boyle's out there.

Speaker 3 Tim Boyle does also seem like a guy who he starts dating a woman who has like, maybe, I don't know, a nine-year-old, and he tries to fill the dad role.

Speaker 3 And the kid's like, no no you're Tim Boy like no he's like yeah I'm gonna take I'm gonna take little like Johnny down to the roller coaster Johnny's like no I don't want to do that with you Tim Boyle Tim's got a two seat he's got a two seat coop and then he trades it in after dating the chick for two weeks and he gets a Honda Civic SI with the tiniest back seat in the world buys a nice car seat and then he shows up and she's like no he's with his real dad yeah today again yeah

Speaker 3 and his real dad is fucking awesome yeah and we had to break up because he was so awesome Yeah.

Speaker 3 All he did was awesome shit. I couldn't handle it anymore.
Tim Boyle's car.

Speaker 6 Tim Boyle's car smells like cigarettes nine years after he quit smoking. Tim Boyle.

Speaker 3 Oh, good game, Tim Boyle.

Speaker 6 Congrats to the Lions. They managed to get an unsportsmanlike penalty in between quarters today.

Speaker 3 When there was biting kneecaps, I think that's officially biting kneecaps.

Speaker 6 It's biting kneecaps, but it was one of the players. I think the official explanation Dan Campbell gave was he said something about another guy's mother

Speaker 6 in between quarters. So I don't.

Speaker 6 I don't want to say that's a discipline issue just because I don't want to say anything bad about Dan Campbell because I feel bad for him.

Speaker 3 Yep.

Speaker 6 And I love him. But it's kind of a discipline issue.

Speaker 3 I have a question for the Browns front. So the Browns have now won three games where they've scored 17 points or less.
Obviously, running the ball is their

Speaker 3 MO.

Speaker 3 At what point though, and we like Baker, but at what point

Speaker 3 is anyone going to step in and be like, yo, Baker Mayfield is really injured. Like, he's really really injured.
He's got a torn labrum. He's got a, I think a deep bruise on his knee and a heel injury.

Speaker 3 And

Speaker 3 like, someone either should,

Speaker 3 there's two courses of action. One, someone should step in and say, Baker Mayfield, you got to sit down, get healthy.

Speaker 3 Like, your money's at stake now because your fifth year contract option is coming up. Like, they're probably going to pick it up, but also you're not playing well right now because you're so injured.

Speaker 3 So either do that option or hire Russell Wilson and Big Ben's agent so that everyone can talk about how injured you are because no one talks about how injured Baker Mayfield is.

Speaker 6 Well, Baker started to this week. He should.
He was the first person that went through the list of the injuries that he had. But Baker needs to have somebody else doing that for him.

Speaker 6 And by somebody else, I don't mean his wife, who after the game put up a caption on Instagram saying, maybe the rest of the team should take a note from how tough Baker is. He is.

Speaker 6 But just get somebody that's not in your immediate family.

Speaker 3 We're doing it for you.

Speaker 6 Baker Mayfield is severely injured and he's putting the team on his back. But he is.

Speaker 3 Like, he actually

Speaker 6 in a weird way, I almost feel like his injuries make him run more deceptively. Because when he's running and he's got like a limp in his step, you don't know where he's going to be cutting.

Speaker 6 So when he was scrambling around the pockets today, on a couple occasions, I saw him running, and I was like, he's like putting some like rhythmic jukes out there.

Speaker 6 And then after he would throw the ball, I'd be like, oh, no, that's just because his knee is swollen, which is making him run like that. So in a weird way, I thought

Speaker 6 he played pretty decently on on the amount of injuries that he had today but he's hurt but it's mostly that the running game for the Browns is great and Nick Chubb it's skinless or it's gloveless season for Nick Chubb he's going skin on skin with the football and I love when that happens Nick Chubb is amazing and we need to give credit to the Browns offensive line yeah more specifically we need to give credit to Callahan their offensive line coach who I think is now far and away the best offensive line coach in the league now that what's his name Scarneckia

Speaker 3 Who he might be back. Who knows? Yeah.
I feel like he's retired and unretired five times.

Speaker 6 We don't know. He just gets bored when he doesn't have football to coach.
But Callahan is a fucking awesome. Everywhere that he's gone, the offensive line has been incredible.
Yep.

Speaker 6 And so the Browns offense, like, they can run the ball at will because, yeah, they've got Nick Chubb, they've got Kareem Hunt. They can chunt you to death.

Speaker 6 But they also, they got the guys up front that are playing really, really well right now.

Speaker 3 And they're all under contract. But I just think Baker Mayfield, like, at some point, it's a detriment to your team.
It's admirable that he's playing.

Speaker 3 He's tough as hell, but someone's got to step in and say, what's going on here? Like, you're clearly not healthy, and this is probably not good.

Speaker 3 Like, wouldn't you rather try to tread water, like, especially against a Lions team that you're going to beat most likely with Case Keenum?

Speaker 3 Get him a week or two off, like, and then try to, because you still have a roster that could make the playoffs, but it's not going to do anything if Baker Mayfield is this injured the rest of the year.

Speaker 6 Yeah, I think that this was probably the game that you would do it in. Yeah.
This could have been a Casey Kingdom game.

Speaker 3 Speaking of injuries, Tim Boyle definitely is like, yeah, I play basketball and then he shows up and he's wearing like old

Speaker 3 Bill Russell's shoes and he then blows both of his ACLs within the first two minutes and then is in a wheelchair at the bar and it's really sad. Yeah.
He's like, dude,

Speaker 3 why are you in a wheelchair? Oh, I tried to play a little pickup. Why did you try to play a little pickup? Oh, well, my son, well, he's not my son.

Speaker 3 His dad invited me, and I had to fucking, I couldn't say no.

Speaker 6 Yeah, I actually think we should talk about whether or not Tim Boyle is injured, because he played pretty poorly today. He played below what I thought that Tim Boyle could be doing.

Speaker 6 Tim Boyle, this is not the Tim Boyle that we all expected right now.

Speaker 3 Yeah, I can't wait for Tim Boyle on Thursday. Oh, my God.
Tim Boyle versus Andy Dalton. Just what America wants.
Tim Boyle, Andy Dalton.

Speaker 6 This is where it really becomes difficult as a fan to lie about how much we need to watch football because it's going to be on Thanksgiving.

Speaker 6 There will be relatives in your house on Thanksgiving that don't understand why you're watching football.

Speaker 6 And unless you're mentally tough, you will allow them to break through into your mind and convince you that you shouldn't be watching this game because there will be a big part of you that's like, why am I watching Andy Dalton and Tim Boyle?

Speaker 6 You need to have your excuses.

Speaker 6 You need to pick up people right now off the waiver wire in fantasy football that will be playing in this game so that you can steal yourself against the people that will try to convince you to turn this game off.

Speaker 3 Or you could just be like, you see that quarterback for the Lions? I used to go to his bar

Speaker 3 before it closed down. And they'd be like, oh, really?

Speaker 3 What? I didn't know that. Yeah, Tim Boyle.
And they'll be like, oh, that makes sense.

Speaker 3 Yeah. How much, just a thought starter.
How much do you think?

Speaker 3 I know it's not legal and it would be, there'd be hoops you'd have to jump through, but if the NFL had any wherewithal or flexibility, how much do you think we could pay Peyton and Eli to suit up for the Lions and the Bears and have a Manning Bowl on Thanksgiving being like no sacking the quarterback?

Speaker 3 Because that would be worth watching. Like, let's say, hey, guys, America, we don't want to watch Andy Dalton versus Tim Boyle.
So both these teams are going nowhere.

Speaker 3 One of you gets Peyton, one of you gets Eli, no sacking the quarterback. We pay them each $10 million.
Let's watch that. How awesome would that be?

Speaker 6 I think if you told Peyton that his touchdowns would count towards his career total so that he could potentially overtake Tom Brady again.

Speaker 3 And it counts as a Super Bowl.

Speaker 6 And it counts as a Super Bowl. Whoever wins gets another ring.
You'll have one ring over the other man. Yes.
It's to officially declare who the most successful man in quarterback is.

Speaker 3 Yes.

Speaker 3 All right.

Speaker 6 Also, if you don't, we kill Arch.

Speaker 3 Ooh.

Speaker 6 Just saying. That would probably make them get out there and play.
Let's do it.

Speaker 3 All right.

Speaker 6 Texans, Titans.

Speaker 3 I didn't really write much down for this game other than Vrabel was like the wettest coach I've ever seen.

Speaker 6 Actually, I have that note right here.

Speaker 3 Yeah. Mike Vrabel.

Speaker 6 He looked like a cat that got dropped in a pond. It was so bad.

Speaker 3 And he didn't even move.

Speaker 6 He just kind of stood there, just wallowing in his own wetness.

Speaker 3 Wetness. And just, this was a game where we thought

Speaker 3 you saw the score, you saw what was happening. You're like, yeah, but the Titans aren't going to lose, are they? And then, yeah, they lost.

Speaker 3 If you're a Titans fan, you could either say that was the end of a great streak where they beat five really good teams and

Speaker 3 they were eventually going to have a letdown spot. It was a weird game.
Or you could say, hey, this is now a couple, few games in a row where our offense without Derrick Henry has not looked great.

Speaker 6 Well, the Texans went with the Jets method of being a really shitty team before you play against the Titans, and then you can beat them.

Speaker 3 Right.

Speaker 6 The Jets gave them the blueprint on that. And the underdog is 14 and 13 straight up in Titans games in the last 27.

Speaker 3 14 and 13? Yeah. Oh, straight up.
Yeah. Straight up.
Yeah, yeah. So money line, yeah.

Speaker 6 So money line, underdogs, they can beat the Titans. It's when the Titans are being disrespected that they're able to get out there and beat the shit out of you.

Speaker 6 I mean, really kick the shit out of you.

Speaker 3 They're like the Tom Herman of the NFL. Right, right.

Speaker 6 Ryan Tannehill had a great chase down, almost tackle on his interception. Saw that.
Mr. Ryan T, as many are calling him.

Speaker 6 But then that,

Speaker 6 I thought that the game was over when they intercepted that Ryan Tannehill pass, and then they got tackled. I thought that they had to have that touchdown.

Speaker 6 The Texans needed a touchdown on a play like that if they're expected to win. But they chased him down.
The Texans ended up pulling it out. Tarod Taylor had two awesome rushing touchdowns.

Speaker 6 And on one of them, I thought for sure, like, this is a Tarod Taylor. I'm going to get injured for the rest of the season jump.
Yeah. He tried to leap over everybody and get into the end zone.

Speaker 6 They also had a great drive, maybe the most Texans drive of all time. You ready for this? The Texans had a seven-minute drive.
It went 40 yards. So 40 yards and seven.

Speaker 6 That's like 5.8 yards per minute. And then they punted.
And then they recovered the muff punt.

Speaker 3 So

Speaker 6 their best offensive play, maybe, of the entire afternoon was a punt that was muffed. That's David Culley football.
That's incredible. That's how you win.

Speaker 3 That's incredible. Hank, what are you...
Now, this is going to break the fourth wall here. What are you celebrating so much? We're taping this during Sunday night football.

Speaker 3 You've gone insane like five times.

Speaker 3 I put in a crazy parlay plus

Speaker 3 that if the Steelers hold out, it's going to hit. Thanks for sending 4,500.
It was, I mean, it was. Yeah, thanks.
We usually bet together on that.

Speaker 3 You would have bet Austin Eckler to score three touchdowns. Yep.
Over 47.5. Yes.
Chargers minus six and a half. Yes.
Roffelsberger over two touchdowns.

Speaker 3 That's my bad.

Speaker 6 I would have bet Austin Eckler to score four touchdowns.

Speaker 3 Yeah. Did he? Yeah.
Yeah. Wow.
Yeah. So we would have to.
I'm sorry, guys. Wow.
I would have confused you to play four touchdowns. Not going to have any pardon.

Speaker 3 I'm still potential.

Speaker 3 We've always shared this. I'm really happy for you.
We've always shared

Speaker 3 on Sunday night. No, I'm happy.
Yeah, yeah, it's fine. We always say, hey, what is everyone betting on tonight? Hank didn't say a word when you're doing it.
I bet the Steelers, too. This was my hedge.

Speaker 3 This was my little, little

Speaker 3 big option. Mush to win what? 100 to win 4,600.
Jeez, that's cool. That's cool.
Hank. Yeah.
That's cool. That's a cool move.
No, no, no, no, that's cool. That's a really, really, really hard

Speaker 3 move. That's a cool move.

Speaker 3 It's not. I just saw Billy's face.
I've never seen Billy this disappointment. You probably just mushed it.
What could mush it?

Speaker 3 If the Steelers cover.

Speaker 3 I mean, there's four minutes left left in the game. Anything could happen.
All right, but that just deflated. That's a bad teammate of the week.
What are we talking about?

Speaker 3 I saw Billy's face. I've never seen him that sad.

Speaker 6 We could have shared these things, Hank.

Speaker 3 We could have been celebrating together.

Speaker 3 Okay.

Speaker 6 Hank's a lot.

Speaker 3 Oh, my God. You guys are.

Speaker 3 David Cully, coach of the year. Yeah, sure.
Two wins from the Texans. That actually, if David Cully gets four wins with this Texans roster, I think he should be coach of the year.

Speaker 6 You know how we talk about how, you know, Mike White in the middle of the Mike White mania, Mike White sanity that hit New York?

Speaker 3 David Cully. Mike White is right.
Yeah. Yeah.
Mike White power surge that happened. Yep.

Speaker 6 David Culley should just fake a heart attack right now. Yeah.
And go out on top.

Speaker 3 Dude, you've won two games this Texans.

Speaker 6 The Titans. You beat one of the best teams in the entire NFL.

Speaker 3 And you made Mike Rabel look like the wettest person of life.

Speaker 6 Yeah, he was so wet and so sad.

Speaker 3 Yes, it was bad. It was very sad.
He needed like a hat.

Speaker 6 Rabel's not a hat guy, but if you're in a downpour, you got to have, you either have to have a hat or you just need a little lackey next to you with an umbrella holding it forward.

Speaker 3 You're telling me you guys didn't do any other little parlays or sprinkle props?

Speaker 6 No, I told everybody all my bets that I made. We've done

Speaker 3 multiple Sunday nights. We've done it.

Speaker 3 This all started because of you a month and a half ago when we're like, we all have to bet together on Sunday nights because it's fun when we cheer together and win something big together.

Speaker 3 And we all took the Steelers. And

Speaker 3 you just didn't.

Speaker 3 We all took the Steelers and you just hedged against it with something that's going to win. All right.
It's fine. I'm going to start telling you guys all my bets.

Speaker 3 No, Sunday night is all we care about when we sit here all together. All right.
All right.

Speaker 6 If you have a bet that's going to win you $4,600 off a $100 investment, that's something I would be interested in hearing about.

Speaker 3 Yes. On a Sunday night when we're all sitting here.
I did it when I was in this room. You guys were finishing and getting prepared for the show.
I'm just glad that you're glad, Hank. That's it.

Speaker 3 No, I'm happy for you.

Speaker 6 If Hank's a happy boy, then a rising tide lifts all boats.

Speaker 3 Yeah, that's actually not true either. I did it before, but yeah, you did it.
I know when you did it. You did it right after PFT said, what's everyone betting tonight? You said nothing?

Speaker 3 Nothing. Why do you ask? All right, let's go to...
Oh, let's do one more ad and then we'll finish the games. PFT, what do we have?

Speaker 6 Yeah, so I want to talk to you about a brand new sponsor, actually,

Speaker 3 That's crazy.

Speaker 6 So, Hank, what do you need to happen?

Speaker 3 Hank, you bet.

Speaker 3 I did bet the Steelers.

Speaker 3 So, we're happy. So, it's a team one.
That's good. Yeah, eight teams.

Speaker 3 That's right.

Speaker 3 We all bet the Steelers together, like we said.

Speaker 3 Yep.

Speaker 6 Oh, no. Is Big Ben okay?

Speaker 3 You can't reverse that one when we've made a pact to all bet together. We all bet the Steelers together, and then you made a side hedge.

Speaker 6 Usually text around

Speaker 3 the Steelers cover, which we all bet together, which is awesome. Your side hedge loses.

Speaker 8 Remember Antonio Brown?

Speaker 3 We rode together. We died together for that, and that was incredible.
Let's go, Steelers.

Speaker 6 Big Ben with Pump Fake.

Speaker 3 Oh.

Speaker 3 Okay. I'm rooting for you, Hank.
I'm rooting for you, big cat. No, I'm rooting for you.
I'm rooting for you. Nope.
I said it first. Nope.

Speaker 6 I said it first. I'm rooting for all of us.

Speaker 6 Get that Steelers cover.

Speaker 3 Yeah.

Speaker 6 Let's go, boys. Right.
Yep.

Speaker 3 Yeah. Everyone.
That's the point. Everyone wins.

Speaker 3 We'd all win.

Speaker 3 Do you bet the Steelers? Yeah. All right.
Money line.

Speaker 3 You really put yourself in a pick on me.

Speaker 3 That's why I was like, I'm going to bet the Steelers' money line. And if the Steelers get blown out, I'll do a little hedge with the Chargers.

Speaker 3 This is going to be Steelers score, and then

Speaker 3 they're going to tie it, and then the Chargers are going to kick a field goal.

Speaker 3 Oh my God, Hank. Damn.
Well, there's a lot of time left. All right, let's get to the rest of the games.
We'll update everyone. That was a nice little peek into the world of pardon my take.
Live.

Speaker 3 What a game. It's been an incredible game, which you actually heard us talk about at the beginning.
All right, Dolphins, Jets.

Speaker 3 I just love it.

Speaker 3 Jake just alphaing Billy any which way he can. Yeah.

Speaker 8 No, it's cool. Rex Ryan said we're fine.
He went and met with Sala and we're good.

Speaker 3 Oh, well, he's got a plan.

Speaker 3 No, he's got a plan.

Speaker 8 Rex Ryan said he heard him. He's a very smart guy, and there's a direction of the team, so don't worry about it.
The future is bright.

Speaker 6 That's kind of like the Rex Ryan cycle that we've been used to recently, is he puts his foot in his mouth, no pun intended, and then he gets somebody mad at him.

Speaker 6 And he's like, I don't know why this guy's mad at me. And then he sits down, makes peace with him, and then he has another week of content of, yeah,

Speaker 6 now me and Baker are on great terms now.

Speaker 6 So that's just kind of what Rex Ryan does. Joe Flacco looked pretty good today.
I would dare say that the New York Jets have one of the best quarterback rooms in all the NFL.

Speaker 3 Oh, wow.

Speaker 6 They're all just kind of the same quarterback.

Speaker 3 And they're all legends in their own right.

Speaker 6 No one's particularly great, but no one's awful, awful. Right.
If you discount like Mike White's most recent two games.

Speaker 3 So you know how you guys were saying every team's in it? The Dolphins are four and seven. Home Panthers.
Home Giants. By home Jets.
Whoa. Seven and seven at Christmas.

Speaker 3 They could get it. Wild guard.
They could get it. And I'm a Tua believer.
He played well today. Like, Tua, Tua's played the deep ball, too.
Yes, they threw the deep ball. He didn't.

Speaker 3 It wasn't just dink and dunk Tua. A little play action going well.

Speaker 3 I am now the Tua fans. I don't know if we're going to be able to finish this podcast.
The Tua fans are

Speaker 3 major issues. Are you mad at me? Nope.

Speaker 3 I don't know what I did wrong. You did nothing wrong.

Speaker 3 Except Mushmeep. Whatever.
It is what it is. I shouldn't have been celebrating.
But

Speaker 3 I didn't.

Speaker 3 You guys acted like the bet was over. You act like the beta.
You act like the bet was over. If Hank had suicide bets right now, he would blow it up and kill everybody in this room.

Speaker 3 Well, not to mention that I also

Speaker 3 cashed out of my Steelers' money last night.

Speaker 3 Down money.

Speaker 3 What the fuck? Because I thought this was going to hit, so I was like, whatever.

Speaker 3 No.

Speaker 3 Hank.

Speaker 3 So you do not have the Steelers. You didn't really bet the Steelers with us, and you also don't have to do that.

Speaker 3 I literally, as when the Chargers, or no, when the Steelers went down seven, I was like, whatever, I'll get out. I'll just get a little out of it.
There's no way the Steelers will win in this game.

Speaker 6 When did you cash out? When was that, though?

Speaker 3 When they were down seven. While we were recording? Yeah.
So, like,

Speaker 3 we're doing the podcast, and Hank's brain is probably right before all these devious little schemes to make money.

Speaker 3 I fucking hate you.

Speaker 3 I'm rooting for Hank. You know what? what I'm saying? So

Speaker 3 I'm willing to give up.

Speaker 3 I am too. I am too.

Speaker 3 If it means that Hank wins. I am too.

Speaker 6 I'm for going. I am too.
I'm disavowing my bet.

Speaker 3 Me too. Officially disavowing my bet.
I don't want my bet. I'm not going to be for the Chargers to win by seven.

Speaker 6 I will not accept my winnings. Yep.

Speaker 3 I'll donate him to chairs. And I'll match.
Yep. And we'll double.

Speaker 6 There it is. If Hank can win.

Speaker 3 What a pickle. What a pickle.
All-time pickle.

Speaker 6 All right, we're all on Hank's team now.

Speaker 3 Hank. Let's go.
Hank. Hank's giving.
Hank. Hank.

Speaker 3 Hank, Hank, Hank, Hank, Hank, Hank, Hank.

Speaker 6 Let's go, Hank.

Speaker 3 Let's do it.

Speaker 3 I still don't think I did anything wrong.

Speaker 6 But two is good.

Speaker 3 Two is good.

Speaker 6 Two is good. Two is good.
Flacco is back. Two touchdowns.

Speaker 3 It's weird watching him with number 19. Did you or did you not talk about the bet like it was over? Okay.

Speaker 3 Did you or did you not? Yes or no? Fact or fiction. That was a fact.
Fact or fiction. Yeah, no, no, fact.
But what I'm saying, I did nothing wrong.

Speaker 3 We all said, what are we going to bet together? And we did. We bet the Steelers, and then you made a side bet that hedged against our bet.
I'd say. So I don't, like, that's a very bad friend move.

Speaker 3 It's a bad karma move. It was a crazy part of it.
You made a secret boot bet. It was a bad boy.
You made a secret boot bet.

Speaker 6 Yeah, if you weren't ashamed of your bet, you would have said it out loud and told your friends.

Speaker 3 Austin. Yeah, it was a fucking shot.
It was a shot. I took a big shot.
Austin Eckler scored three touchdowns. It was crazy.
That was crazy.

Speaker 6 I would have thought he'd had four.

Speaker 3 Can we finish this show?

Speaker 3 I'm not saying anything. I'm rooting for you now because you're mad.
And I'm rooting for you. I thought we all had bet together.

Speaker 3 I didn't know you had a secret hedge, and now I'm rooting for the secret hedge. Okay.
Because you also cashed out the bet we bet together, which you also didn't even bet the bet we bet together.

Speaker 3 You bet the one. I mean, you know how I fucking go.
Fourth and goal, they got stuffed. Fourth and inches.
Unreal.

Speaker 3 Okay. Let's finish the show.

Speaker 6 Wait, can your bet win in overtime? Nope.

Speaker 3 Well, no, Steelers' money.

Speaker 6 But that's cashed out. We cashed that one out.

Speaker 3 Yeah, let's finish the bet. Let's finish the show.

Speaker 3 Two is good.

Speaker 3 He is.

Speaker 6 I think Tu is a fine young man.

Speaker 3 Jake, how does it feel to own Billy in everything you do in life? I don't know about that. Wow.
Come on. He can lift more than me.
Man. I don't know.

Speaker 3 I don't even know if I'm going to be able to do that.

Speaker 6 That's a lot of weight.

Speaker 3 I still got my torn labrums. Okay.
All right. That's worth it.
At least I'm a labrum. Yeah, yeah, you have your labrums.

Speaker 3 Yeah, so Dolphins 500 by Christmas. Heard it here first.
Wow. And Billy, the Jets are just a disaster.

Speaker 8 Nah, dude, Rex Ryan said

Speaker 3 there's good stuff coming.

Speaker 3 He said.

Speaker 3 I'm a full-on Tua believer now, though. I really am.

Speaker 6 When is your quarterback's PCL going to get better?

Speaker 8 It doesn't matter. He's learning.

Speaker 6 Okay.

Speaker 6 So you don't want him back at all this year.

Speaker 8 I just want him to just learn.

Speaker 3 Just keep learning. Just keep learning.
Just keep learning. All right, let's go to the next game.
Cardinals, Seahawks.

Speaker 3 I am officially done with the Seahawks.

Speaker 6 Okay, so I spent the majority of this game yelling at the TV, yelling at the Seahawks. Just do something.
Do something. Do something.
Play football. Yeah.

Speaker 3 Get yards.

Speaker 6 Do something on offense. They do nothing on offense.

Speaker 3 They don't do anything.

Speaker 6 Once in a while, once every half, they'll throw a 40-yard pass to lock it. That's about it.
Yeah. Besides that, they don't do anything.

Speaker 3 So take a couple shots to DK Metcalf. That would be, you know, do something.
Do something.

Speaker 3 Russell Wilson, maybe,

Speaker 3 just a thought.

Speaker 3 Don't have every agent and every reporter in the NFL talk about how miraculous your recovery was and how you worked 19 hours a day to come back with your finger injury and you made a video saying, I'm back, a succession video that made no sense and all this hoopla about how Russell Wilson it's incredible it's a he had his doctor release a statement saying it's a medical miracle that you're back and then just suck

Speaker 3 complete ass and really actually

Speaker 6 all I think is Geno Smith probably gives him a better chance to win so in the statement his doctor made it was like I've never seen a healthier finger in my life than Russell Wilson's middle finger right now it's it's unbelievable what this guy's finger has been able to accomplish it's the hand of of god that russell wilson has and he stinks and the seahawks stink and even worse for the seahawks the the entire organization right now is kind of in a place where they have to make a transition and one of two guys is probably going to be gone if the if the season continues the way that it's going right now yeah and it'll be pete carroll or russell wilson maybe both but the seahawks don't even really know who has the ability to fire their head coach right now because they're still kind of up in limbo from when that yeah when Paul Allen passed away, whether or not his wife has the power, who has all the power and who can make these decisions.

Speaker 6 But again, I feel like when I look at their uniforms, I'm always like, this is a good team because it's the Seahawks wearing this uniform.

Speaker 6 It's like there are a few positions, like we were talking about the Kyle Shanahan running back. It doesn't matter who it is, I feel like you're always going to be good.

Speaker 6 If you're wearing like a Harlem Globetrotters uniform, I expect that you're going to be dunking on like a six-foot-three white guy and be awesome at basketball.

Speaker 6 But if you're wearing a Seattle Seahawks uniform, I expect the team to go out there and play like decent football, like aggressive football, and they're just boring right now.

Speaker 3 Yeah. Really boring.

Speaker 3 Russell Wilson, since he's been back, they have one touchdown in 19 possessions.

Speaker 3 Something is wrong. Do something.
Your fingers hurt.

Speaker 3 You can't be under center as much, which I assume is the finger.

Speaker 3 It's... Like,

Speaker 3 you can't have it both ways, Russ. You can't talk about how how miraculous your comeback was and how it's incredible that you're here and 19 hours a day and then you completely suck.

Speaker 3 And it's kind of like the Baker Mayfield situation where it's like someone should say something like, hey, and he wasn't as bad today as he was last week against the Packers, but their offense was terrible.

Speaker 3 Like they just didn't do anything. They had that one drive at the end, which the Cardinals then went and scored against them.

Speaker 3 Have Geno Smith play. Maybe he'll give you a better chance.
It just sucks. I'm done with the Seahawks.
Don't let me bet on the Seahawks ever again this year. I just can't do it.

Speaker 3 They are so, so frustrating. I had this as my line in the sand.
They just blew the line in the sand. It's not there anymore.
They don't care. Season's over.
Forget it.

Speaker 6 Well, what the Seahawks have really stolen from us is that at least when they were average, like a middling team, they'd always played some fucked up games. It was fun.

Speaker 6 And there'd be something crazy that was going to go on, and you never knew what was going to happen in a game. Now they're just boring and bad.
They're going like three and out.

Speaker 6 Their offense looks shitty. Chris Carson's out for the season.
And yeah, I don't know what the future of the franchise looks like, but it's going to look different next year, I think.

Speaker 3 Yes, yes.

Speaker 3 Also, stat that I didn't realize, which I wish I had realized going into this game, Colt McCoy.

Speaker 3 Colt McCoy has started

Speaker 3 three times in Seattle for the Browns, the Giants, and now the Cardinals, 3-0.

Speaker 3 That's weird. Yeah.
And it's like those are through some years that the Seahawks were very good. Yeah.

Speaker 3 He just owned Seattle. Three presidencies.
Three presidencies. Three and oh in Seattle with three different franchises.
Pretty impressive.

Speaker 6 Colt McCoy, like if you look at his career as a backup, not talking, like discounting his starting years.

Speaker 6 Well, I guess you could compare him to other starting quarterbacks that have then become backups and had good careers. I feel like Colt McCoy is like a top five backup of the modern era.

Speaker 3 Yes.

Speaker 6 In terms of like a guy that was going to be the guy or had people had ideas that maybe he could be the guy when he first started.

Speaker 6 Then he transitioned into that role and became like a great, great backup. I don't know, like off the top of my head, Nick Foles is like

Speaker 3 as a backup.

Speaker 6 But besides that, it's like Colt McCoy is, and I'm not counting Chase Daniel. who's, you know, he's done a great job of being a backup.

Speaker 3 Making money and doing nothing. Yes.

Speaker 6 And just having a name that's always around.

Speaker 6 But Colt McCoy, as far as backups that actually get into games and have to play, he's probably like the best backup in the non-Nick Foles division of the modern era.

Speaker 3 Yes, I'd agree. Colt McCoy, way to go.
And the Cardinals deserve a ton of credit. This is now, so they're two and one with their backup with Colt McCoy, two and one without DeAndre Hopkins.

Speaker 3 Whenever you have a big-time injury to your franchise quarterback,

Speaker 3 or not even a big-time injury, an injury that you know that you have to just tread water, they have tremendous. Like, they've stayed in it.
They've won games on the road. Or no, did they beat the 49?

Speaker 3 Yeah, they won both their games on the road in the division with their backup quarterback. Cliff Kingsbury, I've given him shit.
He's a good coach.

Speaker 3 And their defense is playing very well. And

Speaker 3 once they get fully healthy, they will be a true contender. And they're also 6-0 on the road.
Did you know that? I did not know that. That's crazy.

Speaker 3 And I think they've won, don't quote me, I think they've won all of their road games

Speaker 3 by double digits, which is is crazy.

Speaker 6 Right now, they're missing maybe their three best players. Yep.
Kyler Murray, Hopkins, J.J. Watt.
Yep. J.J.
Watt tweeted out today, ready for this at 8.05 p.m.

Speaker 3 Is he back?

Speaker 6 This is his tweet. You ready?

Speaker 3 Maybe. Dot, dot, dot.
Whoa. Whoa.

Speaker 6 I think J.J.'s coming back.

Speaker 3 You heard it here first. Wow.
JJ's back.

Speaker 6 J.J. Watt is going to come back this season and play for the Cardinals.
That's what he wants us to think. Actually, we fell right into his trap.
He wants us to be having this.

Speaker 3 Let's talk about this right now.

Speaker 6 Yep. Yes.
You win, JJ. Yes.

Speaker 3 All right.

Speaker 3 Last, or no, two more games. Bengals Raiders.

Speaker 3 Your boy, Joe Mixon.

Speaker 3 Excuse me. Joe Mixon, your boy.
On the field. Yeah, on the field.
It was awesome.

Speaker 6 The Bengals. So was Henry.

Speaker 3 This is.

Speaker 3 Matt Nagy

Speaker 3 should watch what happened here. The Bengals off the bye.
This is how you you come off a buy. Yeah.
Like they fixed, you know, the last time we saw them, they got exposed by the Browns.

Speaker 3 The Browns scored a million points on them. They came out here.
They dominated the Raiders from a defensive perspective. They did just enough.
Like the Raiders' defense actually

Speaker 3 held the Raiders in the game. Their offense was terrible, but the Bengals coming off a bye, big win.
Raiders are sinking.

Speaker 3 Yeah,

Speaker 3 that's my big takeaway. The Raiders are kind of done, and this is what you want to see from the Bengals off of a buy.

Speaker 6 So this is the first time the Bengals have have won off their bye week since 2015.

Speaker 6 Whoa. So that's, yeah, I kind of like that Bears status.

Speaker 6 It's been a while for them, but they looked awesome today. And Derek Carr, he went one step further from Josh Allen.
Josh Allen said, the problems start with me. Derek Carr said, yeah, guess what?

Speaker 6 I'm going to show you how it's done. The problems start and end with me.
Whoa. So Derek Carr is taking a lot of responsibility for this, which he probably should.

Speaker 6 Again, he threw another bad interception today, which is crazy because Derek Carr, he's incepted me now because I always thought that Derek Carr was a big interceptions guy.

Speaker 6 Then everybody was like, Derek Carr doesn't throw interceptions.

Speaker 3 Yeah, right, because he just throws the ball up.

Speaker 6 He throws it up, and now he's become an interception guy right after I finally had it drilled into my head that he doesn't throw interceptions.

Speaker 6 Every time that he does, I feel like I've been gaslit into thinking that he's not an interceptions guy. But he did say the problems start and end with me, Derek Carr.

Speaker 3 Wow.

Speaker 6 Derek, life starts and ends with you crapping yourself also, but you can do some cool shit to make up for it in between.

Speaker 3 I appreciate that, Derek. It starts and ends with him.

Speaker 3 He also had a bad fumble.

Speaker 6 He did have a bad fumble. I think a little under-reported storyline out of Cincinnati this year,

Speaker 6 their kicker is really good. Their kicker, I think,

Speaker 6 six field goals over 50 yards.

Speaker 3 Evan McPherson.

Speaker 3 You don't get a lot of Evan kickers. You don't get a lot of Evans.
No, you don't.

Speaker 6 And there's also a guy in Cincinnati that's predicted the outcome every single week of every Bengals game with a coin flip. Whoa.
So we got to keep eyes, keep tabs on this guy's coin flip.

Speaker 6 I don't know, his Reddit account.

Speaker 6 There's a guy on Reddit that has done it.

Speaker 6 And he's blown up. He's being honest.
It's blown up. He posted before he was a bad person.
He posted it.

Speaker 3 Okay. So he got this one right.

Speaker 6 Now we're officially in Hoo Day season right now. I also think that this

Speaker 6 hits the over for Bengals win total on the season.

Speaker 3 So there you go, Bengals. Good job, Bengals.
Good job.

Speaker 6 I don't want to gas them up too much because we kind of jinxed them.

Speaker 3 Yeah, we did that whole thing. So let's, yeah, let's just say, good job, Bengals.

Speaker 3 We expect you to continue doing a good job and let's leave it at that because you're right we did the whole like the bengals are leading the afc north and the bengals have the one

Speaker 3 seat yeah that was it was too much too fast yeah yeah all right so good job bengals all right last game chiefs cowboys everyone thought it was going to be points do me a favor jake just remind me that uh anytime we watch a game and the announcer says there's going to be fireworks to bet the under that's why i took the over right before it started yeah

Speaker 3 before the game troy aikman said it I think it hits it 100%.

Speaker 6 Yeah, Aikman was like, we're going to see some real fireworks today. And then, well, excuse me, not Troy Aikman, Akeball, as Joe Buck calls him, which I didn't know that was Troy Aikman's nickname.

Speaker 3 Good old Akbar.

Speaker 6 I didn't read that part in Skip Bayless's book. But yeah, Troy Akeball was like, let's fucking go.

Speaker 6 We're going to put up some fucking points out there. And it was very disappointing.

Speaker 6 Besides, there was one very cool moment in the game. I forget who it was on the Chiefs did the AK-47

Speaker 3 automatic shotgun. I think he was shooting a shotgun.

Speaker 6 Shotgun. That was cool.

Speaker 6 You should not, it was a cool enough celebration where even though he was pretending to shoot his opponents, the referees should have been like, hey, in his defense, that looks sick. Yeah.

Speaker 3 In a weird way, I actually like, it was a statement. It was not a terrible loss for the Cowboys.
It was a statement win for the Chiefs. The Chiefs' defense, all of a sudden, I mean,

Speaker 6 should we ask that question?

Speaker 3 Is the Chiefs' defense good?

Speaker 3 Because they went from horrifically bad to, oh, they're playing just good enough to keep them in games to now they've gone four straight games where they've held their opponent to 17 points or less.

Speaker 3 So

Speaker 3 I don't know if it's just Chris Jones and Frank Clark are trying now, their pass rush, whether they change something up scheme-wise, but they're playing very well.

Speaker 3 And then on the other side, I actually think that like if you're a Cowboys fan, you come away from this game saying, It's actually not that bad because you're missing Tyron Smith, you're missing Amari, and CeeDee Lamb gets concussed.

Speaker 3 So your offense is kind of very injured right now, going to get better. Your defense,

Speaker 3 the start of that game, it felt like the Chiefs were going to just roll them, like run down the field every single time. They were doing fucking trick plays, all that shit.

Speaker 3 The defense, Micah Parsons was incredible. The defense actually kept them in the game.
And that's the part of the Dallas Cowboys equation that you're most worried about.

Speaker 3 So I think if you're a Dallas fan, you walk away being like, you know what?

Speaker 6 That's okay. That was a game that if the Cowboys win, you're thinking soupy.

Speaker 6 You're definitely

Speaker 3 in a loss.

Speaker 6 In this one, it's like, you know what? We took a shot. We weren't supposed to win this game, anyways.

Speaker 6 At the start of the season, every Cowboys fan had this labeled as a loss when they looked at their calendar. So you're not losing any ground on it.

Speaker 6 I have a serious question that we need to ask about the Kansas City Chiefs, though. Yeah.

Speaker 6 Is Jackson Mahomes dead?

Speaker 6 Because he hasn't been at any games.

Speaker 3 He reposted. He's a game has him.

Speaker 6 Yeah, like the tennis star. Yeah.
He reposted a TikTok today.

Speaker 6 Sundays for Jackson Mahomes, that's his game day, too. Yes.
That's when he gets engagement galore on his latest TikTok. He reposted.
He reused an old TikTok today.

Speaker 6 He hasn't been at their games for the last several weeks. And by the way, the Chiefs, side note, have won those games.

Speaker 6 But Jackson Mahomes is nowhere to be found. I'm just asking the question, can we get eyes on Jackson Mahomes?

Speaker 3 And is, do you keep him away, though?

Speaker 3 You think? Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah. I mean,

Speaker 3 the Chiefs now, I think, are back into, it went from the Chiefs are broken, their defense is terrible, and Patrick Mahomes is something's wrong to, oh, man, the Chiefs are starting to round into form here.

Speaker 3 Obviously, they beat the Packers with Jordan Love as their quarterback, but I feel like the Chiefs, I'd have to look at their schedule, but

Speaker 3 it feels like

Speaker 3 they'll probably win the West. You know what I mean?

Speaker 3 If they beat the Chargers, they'll probably win the west because they're the chargers have slipped up a couple times i don't know now the chiefs are quickly back into their thinking soupy they've got a tough schedule though who they got well because they have to they have to go to the chargers they have to play the steelers they go to the bengals and then they go to mile high at the for the last game of the season okay so that's not easy no it's not easy but i think they'll i think they're they have found something on defense and they've also found something on offense where they will it's i'm not you're you're now not thinking like oh no the chiefs are in major major trouble because they're seven and four right now what do they gotta what do they have to win to get into the playoffs i also there was a moment where we thought they weren't gonna make the playoffs you get you get probably 10 wins and i think you're in yeah so so they'll get in the playoffs they've figured it out they're kind of back rolling yeah they're they're the fourth seed right now um

Speaker 3 all right anything else before we get to the rest of the show?

Speaker 6 Tyreek Hill does that thing where he jumps backwards five yards all the time, and he always ends up making up those five yards more.

Speaker 6 Any other player in the NFL that does that is when you yell at your TV like, this guy's a fucking idiot. Go that way.
Yes. Get the first down.
Tyreek Hill makes it work every time.

Speaker 6 He jumps back five yards and he gets seven. Yeah.
That's just his style.

Speaker 3 By the way, I don't even know. We'll just, at the beginning of the show,

Speaker 3 when you get to this point of the show, you're going to be like, oh, that's what they were talking about. At the beginning of the show, we'll just tell people what happened, like...

Speaker 3 the result of this game and to just keep listening because it's live updates. Hank, are we,

Speaker 3 how are we doing?

Speaker 3 We're good. Are you mad? We covered.
Yep. Steelers covered.
We did. The bet we all made together covered.

Speaker 6 Congrats, guys. Good team win.
Although, I wish that it hadn't. I would love to have not won that bet.

Speaker 3 Yeah. But are you mad at me? Nope.

Speaker 3 I mean, that sounds like you're mad at me.

Speaker 3 What's there to be mad about? I don't know.

Speaker 6 Besides that, how was the rest of your day, Hank?

Speaker 3 It's great. Yeah? Yeah.

Speaker 6 That's cool.

Speaker 3 Patriots are back.

Speaker 3 Yeah, they're back on Thursday. Celtics beat the Lakers and LeBron's facing on Friday.

Speaker 3 Was that cool? It was awesome.

Speaker 3 What else? I edited PFT's audiobook all weekend, so that was fun.

Speaker 6 Thanks, Hank.

Speaker 3 Okay.

Speaker 6 Did a great job.

Speaker 3 Saw you on Saturday night. That was fun.
Yeah, I came here.

Speaker 6 LeBron James got probably suspended for a while today. Yeah.

Speaker 3 He's probably going to jail if Adam Silver has a backbone. Mm-hmm.
Right? Yeah. Wouldn't you say?

Speaker 6 What's that, Billy? What, Billy?

Speaker 8 I think Isaiah is going to disappear.

Speaker 3 Isaiah, the guy. What's his last name? Stevens.

Speaker 6 Stewart. Stewart.

Speaker 3 I knew you didn't know it. I didn't know it.
So I'm not saying that, like...

Speaker 3 Household name, Isaiah Stewart.

Speaker 6 I think that they were probably going to fight. in the tunnels underneath the stadium.
That's why LeBron James went around.

Speaker 6 If you noticed, after he got kicked out officially, he went around shaking everybody's hand on his team, saying goodbye to everyone.

Speaker 6 He even went up to some of the security guards that he hid behind during the scuffle, and he was like shaking their hands, learning their names, just taking his time, making sure that they had Stewart.

Speaker 6 Isaiah. Isaiah Stewart restrained in the tunnels, making sure there was no boots.

Speaker 8 Well, the funniest part was he would pretend like he was fine, calm down, and then just as everyone stopped holding him back, he'd just run away again.

Speaker 3 Classic move.

Speaker 3 LeBron. I'll fake out.
Like I'm tired of not actually jail.

Speaker 3 All right, let's get to Football Guy of the Week.

Speaker 6 Worst headshot from an LBJ on this day in history.

Speaker 3 Boom.

Speaker 6 This guy or JFK?

Speaker 3 Wait, is that day coming up soon? It's today. Oh, this guy.
Fuck yes, one day, Ravel. It's in 20 minutes.
Dude, let's see some fucking carnage.

Speaker 6 Ravel is about to be.

Speaker 3 It's 7.30 in the morning.

Speaker 3 I want to see brains all over Jackie O's dress.

Speaker 3 You know he's giving it to us. You better.

Speaker 3 Okay, Billy, football guy of the week.

Speaker 8 Congratulations to week 10's winner Timmy Malinowski.

Speaker 3 Yeah, Timmy.

Speaker 3 He's a mechanic.

Speaker 3 Yeah, love that winner.

Speaker 3 So

Speaker 8 our first nominee for this week is Will Campbell.

Speaker 3 Whoa. Sorry.

Speaker 8 Too many selling salts. Offensive lineman out of Neville High School, an LSU commit.

Speaker 8 He was injured, and once he saw that his team was losing against doctor's orders, he suited up to play start playing in the second quarter. He had a groin injury.
He was told not to play.

Speaker 8 But once he saw that his team might get eliminated, he was like, screw this. I'm going back in.
I'm suiting up.

Speaker 3 They ended up winning. Okay.

Speaker 3 Lesson to pretty bad.

Speaker 6 Listen to your doctor.

Speaker 3 Exactly.

Speaker 8 Second nominee is Jamal Williams, running back for the Detroit Lions.

Speaker 8 He showed up to his prep conference in full uniform, declaring that he is back from injury, and he's so excited to get back out on the field.

Speaker 8 He showed up to the prep conference in his uniform, helmet, and fully suited up, ready to go.

Speaker 3 We call that the Jameis.

Speaker 6 Exactly. Or the Ricky Williams.

Speaker 3 Or the Ricky Williams.

Speaker 8 Third nominee is Paul Peterson, the head coach of Dixie State. He made a promise to his players that if any of them got a pick six, he'd take his shirt off and run on the field to celebrate with them.

Speaker 8 He did exactly that after one of his players got a pick six. And even though they were losing pretty badly,

Speaker 3 it was in the rain, it was quite a funny visual. How badly? How badly was the losing vision?

Speaker 6 So the pick six occurred against Missouri State.

Speaker 3 Okay. It was 48 to 17.
And they got a pick six to put them up 48 to 23.

Speaker 6 I think he just wanted to get thrown out of the game.

Speaker 8 Yeah, probably at that point. But it was like soaking rain.
It was quite a funny visual.

Speaker 6 Was he wetter than Mike Rabel?

Speaker 3 Well, he had his shirt off.

Speaker 3 He was dry underneath. Then he took his shirt off.
He didn't turn his shirt off. He got pretty good.

Speaker 8 Fourth nominee is Scott Hansen.

Speaker 8 So we've always wanted this question.

Speaker 8 Scott confirmed some rumors. He said, the rumors are true.
I don't go to the bathroom during the seven hours of the NFL red zone.

Speaker 8 I dehydrate on Sunday a.m., use the men's room right before the show during the five-minute countdown, and then it's the willpower of a ninja for seven hours.

Speaker 8 So, football guy moved to power through the seven hours of football and not use the bathroom. I think he may use the bathroom, but he doesn't go to the bathroom.

Speaker 3 He's pissed. He might be a piss dog.
He piss dogs.

Speaker 6 Scott Hanson, he also confirmed that on this show. Yeah.

Speaker 3 That's okay.

Speaker 3 No, that's all good. That's okay.

Speaker 6 And by the way, Billy, we don't call it the red zone anymore. It's the red area.

Speaker 3 The red area.

Speaker 3 That's okay, Bill. You didn't, though.
I knew that. Yeah.

Speaker 3 It was just going viral today.

Speaker 3 So, anyway, did he credit us?

Speaker 8 Well, I'm claiming the credit here. No,

Speaker 6 he tweeted it out. Scott did? Yes.
Did he credit us for also asking him that question earlier?

Speaker 3 Well, we're just going to claim it. Yeah, that's reclaiming it.
We're just reclaiming it right now.

Speaker 8 And our throwback football guy of the week is actually just from a month ago. I'm going to send the MP3.

Speaker 8 Kirby Smart had an insane halftime speech against Florida, which

Speaker 3 is a throwback. It just leaked.
The speech was a halftime speech. It just leaked this week.

Speaker 8 So I'm counting as a throwback. And hopefully we can splice the MP3 in of the speech.
But it caused a lot of people to be like,

Speaker 8 well, I have the MP3.

Speaker 3 Oh, you have it? Okay, all right. So hopefully, you can play it.

Speaker 3 What'd he say?

Speaker 8 He said some controversial stuff.

Speaker 6 What'd he say?

Speaker 3 Well, we can play it. Yeah, just play it.
Okay.

Speaker 3 I still remember like yesterday walking out of this bitches I have.

Speaker 11 But look, but look, the look and the feeling I had. Looking at Titan, looking at Stokes, looking at those guys.
You know what, guys? This is our fucking year. This is our fucking year.

Speaker 11 We're doing about how we play. It's zero to fucking zero, and you make them never want to play it again.
All that shit they're talking, I love it, Jamari. We didn't say shit.

Speaker 11 We don't say shit to them. We just laugh and point to the scoreboard.
Let me get a picture, JD, pointing at the fucking scoreboard.

Speaker 3 Don't say shit to their undisciplined ass. Because we are.
We are disciplined. And our ass still don't take the fucking shit out of them.
Physically, physically, I want to break them.

Speaker 11 I'm talking about fucking break these pictures on deep mission offense. Let's go deep in.

Speaker 3 I wasn't even listening. Sorry.
Sorry.

Speaker 3 It's a hype speech. It's a hype speech.

Speaker 6 He's cussing. Kirby's cussing.

Speaker 3 And we talked about it a month ago? No. Oh, okay.
That's why it's a throwback. Yeah.
Got it.

Speaker 3 Got it. That's good.
I mean, it's not good. It wasn't good.
It was a great speech. If you listen to the speech, it's freaking great.

Speaker 3 And Scott Hanson, as first reported by us, but then reported by Billy, doesn't piss during red zone.

Speaker 3 Yeah. Red area.

Speaker 3 All right. Good job, Billy.
Everyone vote. Did you put the post blog? Yeah.
The blog is up. All right.

Speaker 3 Thank you, Billy. All right.
Let's do

Speaker 3 Who's Back of the Week?

Speaker 5 The Pro Football Football Show is presented by the Chevy Silverado. Built for the hustle, ready for the game.
Chevy Silverado is America's most dependable full-size truck.

Speaker 5 Whether you're grinding through the week or gearing up for kickoff, the Silverado is one ride that's always game ready. Just like football, it's about grit, grind, and getting it done.

Speaker 5 Head to Chevy.com to learn more and build your own Chevy Silverado.

Speaker 3 Who's back of the week? Hank. Hank and I have a beef, but he's good with me.
I apologize to you.

Speaker 6 Who's back's Tiger Woods?

Speaker 3 Oh, wow. He's on a golf club.
It was deep. People went crazy.

Speaker 3 People think this is a fucking easy game, this game of ours, this life of ours.

Speaker 3 You made a side bet.

Speaker 3 Against our if I look in your account, you made side bets too. No, I bet the Steelers.
I said I bet the Steelers. I think it's also

Speaker 6 part of it is that you were celebrating Najee Harris.

Speaker 3 You didn't tell us about that. I don't know.
I said it out loud. I said, if Najee Harris scored a touchdown, the Steelers,

Speaker 3 it was all Steelers. It was all Steelers.

Speaker 3 It was all correlated Steelers. There was nothing Chargers.
So betting the Steelers. So it's like you're apologizing, but you're also not taking any blame.
It's confusing. I'm just confused.

Speaker 3 Which one is it? Tell me. I'll take 10% blame for the mush, but I think that mush, like the idea that I mushed it,

Speaker 3 it was already a mean friendship thing to do. So it's like,

Speaker 3 it doesn't fall under the regular rules of gambling etiquette when you already broke the gambling etiquette. You made it a war.
You made it a, you made, there were no, what's it, rules of engagement?

Speaker 6 There's usually an understanding that going into these games, Hank always sends out a parlay plus for the boys. For the boys.
And I didn't see a parlay plus for the boys come across the boys' chat.

Speaker 3 And it was, if it had not been discussed that we were all betting the Steelers, which I remember it vividly, PFT said, what are we betting? I said, I think we should take the Steelers.

Speaker 3 If that had not been discussed, then I wouldn't have given a fuck. But we said we're all taking the Steelers, and then you had a bet that was the Chargers.

Speaker 6 You were also, you were kind of starting to high-step on us.

Speaker 3 A little bit.

Speaker 6 You're high-stepping a little bit.

Speaker 3 So then don't say sorry. You're totally not sorry.
No, I said I'm 10% sorry. Okay.

Speaker 3 Do you accept my 10%? 10%. I accept it.
Okay. I think that's fair.
Okay. Very good.
Then we're good. I think that's fair.
The amount that I'm sorry, you've accepted.

Speaker 3 So we're good.

Speaker 6 So in a way, he accepted 100% of your 10%.

Speaker 3 Yes, correct. Got it.
Because that was all I had.

Speaker 3 Bygones be bygones. Yeah, bygones be bygones.
Yeah. All right, what's your who's back? Tiger Woods.
Swung a golf club. Everyone went crazy.
What kind of golf club was it?

Speaker 3 I don't know, but I will be swinging a golf club on Wednesday, and I expect that same reaction. Hell yes.
Sweet back.

Speaker 3 Are golf courses still open?

Speaker 3 Yeah. Oh.

Speaker 3 Do they close? Yeah, they close, right?

Speaker 6 Just weather can tell you.

Speaker 3 It's all around if you can play if the weather is. I think it's like after Thanksgiving because it's like a tournament with friends from home and shit.
It's not really

Speaker 3 a serious event.

Speaker 6 It took Tiger, what, like nine months to be able to golf again? It's going to take you like three weeks. Who's tougher?

Speaker 3 Yeah, you got this. Exactly.
You got this. Back from major back surgery.
from his chiropractor.

Speaker 6 Love it. Major back readjustment.
Yeah.

Speaker 3 All right.

Speaker 3 Who's back of the week? PFT.

Speaker 6 I got a couple. Is that okay?

Speaker 6 Hank's going to be editing.

Speaker 3 Yeah, you guys are keeping it tight, like you said. Okay.

Speaker 6 My first who's back of the week is keeping your beers cold outside. I love this time of the year.

Speaker 3 I say this every week.

Speaker 3 I don't think I said this this year.

Speaker 3 What?

Speaker 6 I haven't said this here.

Speaker 3 Go check the tape.

Speaker 3 All right. Here's what I will say right now.
Yeah. Cam says no.
Liam says no. No, here's what I'm going to say.

Speaker 6 Hank's lashing out.

Speaker 3 No, here's what I'm going to say, though. All right, so

Speaker 3 I only gave Hank 10% of an apology. I accept 100% of Hank's bad mood.
I think that's totally fair.

Speaker 3 I think you being mad right now is completely warranted, and I think it's completely appropriate. So I accept your lashing out, and

Speaker 3 I welcome it. I welcome your lash out.

Speaker 3 And

Speaker 3 no one can judge Hank's lash out because that was a bad loss.

Speaker 3 And a bad who's back.

Speaker 3 Do you accept what I just said as being

Speaker 3 an olive branch to our friendship coming back?

Speaker 3 Sure. You don't think so?

Speaker 6 Because now Hank has redirected his anger at me. He's fine with you now.

Speaker 3 Well, we did figure out a 10% deal. He's just passing it.
Okay.

Speaker 6 Keeping your beers cold outside because it's God's refrigerator and it's wintertime and the mountains turn blue outside now.

Speaker 3 Two shorts, Nax.

Speaker 6 You can just put them outside in the snow.

Speaker 6 You don't have to worry about putting them in the fridge. Just leave your beer outside.
They get cold.

Speaker 3 Love it, Lord. Love's a great Who's Back of the Week, right?

Speaker 3 Everyone?

Speaker 6 My other Who's Back of the Week is Soros.

Speaker 6 My next Who's Back of the Week is making JFK jokes. My other Who's Back of the Week is making Hitler jokes.
My next Who's Back of the Week is making fun of Hank's ass.

Speaker 3 Oh.

Speaker 6 My other Who's Back of the Week is...

Speaker 6 Oh, Ed Sheeran had a thing where he said that, yeah, he doesn't pee at urinals because because people take little peeks as little tiny wee wee, but we all know it's because he can't pee at a urinal.

Speaker 6 Have I told that story before?

Speaker 3 Yeah, yeah, it's okay, I love it every time.

Speaker 6 Uh, my other who's back of the week is reading, yeah, reading's back. As Hank alluded to, he's been editing together the Goodell versus Obama book that I wrote in 2014.

Speaker 6 We've turned it into an audio book, maybe.

Speaker 3 And if Hank doesn't delete the entire file,

Speaker 3 it'll be coming out on Cyber Cyber Month. No, it's Black Friday, right?

Speaker 3 Yeah.

Speaker 3 No, no. Actually, no, there's

Speaker 3 2023.

Speaker 3 There's a very small number of actual physical copies that we're selling, and I think once those sell out, we'll put out the audiobook.

Speaker 6 Put out the audiobook.

Speaker 3 But if you want a hard copy, make sure you're on top of your shit, Black Friday, because those will go fast.

Speaker 6 Audiobook's going to be great. It features a lot of people at Barstool doing the different voices.
It's got Big Cat on there. It's got Hank on there.
It's got Billy. It's got Jake.

Speaker 3 Who's back in the room we built? Jimmy Hoffa. Oh.

Speaker 8 They think they found his resting place.

Speaker 3 Okay. Yes.

Speaker 3 His resting place in Sergeant.

Speaker 8 It wasn't the 40-yard bump.

Speaker 8 It's actually on a Little League field in Jersey City. So there was a deathbed confession.

Speaker 8 A guy told his son that he actually buried Jimmy Hoffa in a plot of land next to his dump, but he didn't want to bury it.

Speaker 8 He was told to bury it on his landfill dump place, but he didn't want to put it on his property. So he actually moved it to public land.

Speaker 8 That was actually in a couple scenes of the Sopranos and the Irishman.

Speaker 3 What does it even matter if we find him?

Speaker 3 Oh, he's dead? It's way cooler if we don't find him.

Speaker 8 I know, but like, just tie up loose ends.

Speaker 3 What loose ends? That he's dead?

Speaker 8 Or, like, maybe there's clues about stuff. That he died?

Speaker 6 JFK.

Good point. Good point, Billy.
JFK didn't think about that point.

Speaker 8 Oh, in Rob Gronkowski's Stealing More Valor.

Speaker 8 He said that when he broke his ribs, he's never been shot before, but when he broke his ribs, he thought it was like how it feels to get shot.
