Speaker 11 Preview for week one.

Speaker 12 There was a Thursday night football game.

Speaker 13 Who cares?

Speaker 3 And what happened?

Speaker 1 Firefest and FAQs and Fantasy Fuckboys.

Speaker 9 So it's a huge show.

Speaker 16 When cool, creamy ranch meets tangy, bold buffalo. The whole 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 17 At participating McDonald's.

Speaker 18 Okay, let's go.

Speaker 18 Now in the street, there is violence.

Speaker 18 And then a lot of some work will be done.

Speaker 18 No paper, and a low washing.

Speaker 18 And then I can't blame all of those.

Speaker 18 Oh, no, we're gonna ride it down to

Speaker 6 Welcome to part of my take presented by the Cash App.

Speaker 2 Today is Friday, September 6th.

Speaker 6 Football's back. Football is back.
I am so excited. It's the best time of the year.
Thursday night football, get it started with a hundred-year anniversary of the league. And what a night.

Speaker 6 And what a night all around for all of us football fans out there.

Speaker 6 Biket, how are you feeling?

Speaker 9 I'm just waiting 33 days till NBA season.

Speaker 23 There you go.

Speaker 6 There you go.

Speaker 24 Football is so stupid because you care so much and you wait so long.

Speaker 26 And look, I'm not going to go full like double doink, suicidal big cat, because it is week one, and I'm going to have a little perspective, but we are recording this at one in the morning right after the game.

Speaker 6 I'll just say this.

Speaker 26 The Bears were a fucking joke tonight.

Speaker 20 Yeah. They were a joke.

Speaker 15 How does that make you feel?

Speaker 26 10 penalties for 107 yards. The offense looked like shit.
The defense was awesome.

Speaker 30 Couldn't turn the ball over, which would have been nice.

Speaker 25 But, like,

Speaker 25 they were a joke.

Speaker 29 You can't have that first and 40 graphic.

Speaker 24 That's a fucking joke.

Speaker 8 That is a Maxion game.

Speaker 25 That is Miami of Ohio playing Bowling Green on a Tuesday night.

Speaker 26 They have a first and 40.

Speaker 6 I actually think that a second and 40 looks better on the the screen, more naturally. I didn't mean to have a shot shot at

Speaker 6 Mac shot. Don't take it out on the Mac.
I know you're going to say some things that you don't mean tonight. I'll give you some spin zones.
Spin zone number one.

Speaker 6 You didn't have to watch the extra point if they had scored a touchdown to tie the game.

Speaker 1 Eddie Pinero was one of my stars of the game.

Speaker 6 That would have been a good time.

Speaker 14 Eddie Piniero and Pat O'Donnell.

Speaker 20 Way to go special teams.

Speaker 18 Punting the fuck out of the ball, kicking the fuck out of the ball.

Speaker 14 Yeah. You got your goals good.

Speaker 25 Everything else, bad.

Speaker 6 Spin zone number two. Yeah, kickoffs, not great.

Speaker 2 Well, you know what? He was juiced up from the field points.

Speaker 6 He was juiced up, and he also was limiting the return factor. So that's good.
Kick it out of bounds. Save yourself some consternation that way.
Here's another spin zone.

Speaker 6 You guys might get Tua.

Speaker 14 No, we're not going to get fucking Tua. Shut up.

Speaker 34 Listen.

Speaker 6 Would you guys, well, let's talk about it, big cat. Let's explore this a little bit.
If you were to go, would you trade a 2-14 season this year for 20?

Speaker 14 No, no.

Speaker 35 The Bears' window is open.

Speaker 36 It's one game.

Speaker 26 They're fine.

Speaker 21 Defense Defense was good, you said.

Speaker 9 Mitch has to be better.

Speaker 2 He has to be better. There's no choice.

Speaker 19 There is no choice.

Speaker 6 Mitchell Truckski.

Speaker 24 We have no choice.

Speaker 32 He has to be better.

Speaker 29 He has to be better.

Speaker 35 I'm so frustrated.

Speaker 5 It was an incompetent performance by the offense.

Speaker 15 And I'll say one thing

Speaker 26 that in defense of the offense, the one drive that felt like things were going well, this is going to suck in the NFL this season because they have the new rule where you can challenge an offensive pass interference.

Speaker 24 I don't think Matt LaFleur did this on purpose, but what ended up being the result of the challenge pass interference when he challenged a push-off that wasn't even a push-off, he essentially got a free timeout, stopped all momentum, and that drive stalled.

Speaker 26 So that's going to happen.

Speaker 2 Like teams will start doing that where they will,

Speaker 5 if a team is starting to roll down the field in like the second half, and there's just even some kind of contact, they will throw the flag to basically get a free timeout on defense and stop all momentum.

Speaker 6 I can't wait to see how Andy Reid screws that up at the end of the year.

Speaker 40 It's going to happen.

Speaker 14 It's going to happen.

Speaker 6 There are all these little quirks. One of my favorite things about week one every single year is seeing the small quirks, the little additions to the broadcast.

Speaker 6 Last year, it was the green zone, which we immediately fell in love with.

Speaker 6 And I still like it. And shout out to Soldier Field.
The field looked immaculate to us.

Speaker 26 And shout out to Al and Chris Collinsworth doing the old newspaper boy.

Speaker 6 Yeah, the old newsies.

Speaker 6 Collinsworth was.

Speaker 41 You guys kind of look like that.

Speaker 14 Wen You're a Jedi Ridge, Jet. All the way.

Speaker 6 Very professional right here. Collinsworth looked pretty swaggy.
He looked like Matthew McConaughey.

Speaker 6 If McConaughey went under like conversion therapy to get rid of all his swag, Collinsworth looked good in the little newsy hat. I think one of them had its suspenders on.
They had the vest.

Speaker 6 And then the other new little addition, the little quirk that they're adding in, that they added in tonight, I don't know if they're going to do it moving forward.

Speaker 6 They had the Mitchell Trubisky foot cam where they just kept showing his footwork over and over again. It's not good.

Speaker 14 Sorry, Tarantino. Yeah, exactly.

Speaker 6 Tarantino came in as a consultant, and he he was like, we need just a ton of foot close-ups in this one for no reason. That adds nothing to the plot in this broadcast.
Honestly, it was nice.

Speaker 5 I'm looking at the box score.

Speaker 2 I'm honestly looking at the box score, and Mitch was terrible, and he'll tell you that he's terrible.

Speaker 25 He had probably four picks.

Speaker 2 He had a pick, but he had three that he left out there.

Speaker 2 But Matt Nagy was also terrible because I know the offensive line wasn't doing a great job and they couldn't really block, but holy shit, man, 45 passes and 15 runs.

Speaker 25 You can't do that.

Speaker 2 When you have a defense like we have, you cannot do that. So it was incompetence, and Aaron Rodgers wasn't even that good.

Speaker 42 He

Speaker 26 leaned through for 200 yards.

Speaker 43 Like, he wasn't

Speaker 14 fucking fucking computer.

Speaker 27 The Astros are going to lose, too.

Speaker 6 Yeah, so I mean, you have to give some credit to Matt LaFleur for turning that defense around. Like, he's a guru.
They brought him in. The Packers look like

Speaker 14 Matt LaFleur's dedrafted way. Matt LaFleur's defense a couple guys.

Speaker 6 As promised. So the Packers look good as a Packers podcast.
I think we have some things to look forward to this season.

Speaker 14 That's the part that's so bad.

Speaker 22 I fucking hate the Packers, and the jokes are the same, and they always hurt, and they're just this.

Speaker 3 Time is a flat circle.

Speaker 22 The Bears have a great defense, and the offense...

Speaker 6 Who the fuck knows? It doesn't look great.

Speaker 13 Who the fuck knows? It doesn't look good.

Speaker 24 And then the Packers fans get to make the same fucking jokes, and they always always hurt my feelings.

Speaker 41 I mean, that hat on PFT's head is just.

Speaker 37 I don't even. He's a troll.

Speaker 6 What about that? He's just a fucking troll.

Speaker 26 The funny thing is back under your bridge.

Speaker 6 The funny thing was, Big Cat texted me this morning and said, hey, can you show up and just be a troll tonight? Yeah. I was like, yeah.

Speaker 14 I did. Well, you were going to do that anyway.

Speaker 32 You got

Speaker 32 to.

Speaker 14 Hold on. Hold on.

Speaker 26 You got a cheese head a week ago and said, make sure you slap owner on it.

Speaker 18 I don't think I had to tell you to be a troll.

Speaker 6 No, but you were encouraging me.

Speaker 14 Well, you were asking me.

Speaker 26 But you still have it on, so you're still trolling.

Speaker 21 I didn't even realize. You still are trolling.

Speaker 6 It It feels like, as an owner, it feels like it's a part of me.

Speaker 2 You are a troll through and through.

Speaker 6 Yes, absolutely.

Speaker 14 Whatever. So the game, whatever.
So how do you feel moving forward?

Speaker 18 Have you got?

Speaker 25 I actually, you know what? I feel bad. I feel bad for the country because that game sucked.

Speaker 6 It was a trash game. Terrible.

Speaker 41 It's fucked up that could. It should have been the Patriots.
It should have been the Patriots.

Speaker 20 Oh, Jesus. Whatever.
It just sucks.

Speaker 14 It should have been the Patriots.

Speaker 41 Every single year, the Thursday night game is a defending champion. The only reason they didn't was be like, oh, 100 years, but that game didn't celebrate 100 years.

Speaker 14 Yeah, it did with the T-formation.

Speaker 43 Navy came out with a T-formation.

Speaker 2 The Bears fumbled. That should have been it right there.

Speaker 24 They should have called the game.

Speaker 6 Yeah, a 10-3 final score. Is that what it was? 10-3? 10-3.
10-3.

Speaker 6 That is a touching tribute to 1990.

Speaker 2 We didn't watch the game with you, Hank.

Speaker 26 Did you think the Bears had any chance at the end there?

Speaker 14 Yeah.

Speaker 25 I mean, they were driving.

Speaker 6 You can't throw that ball, Mitch.

Speaker 14 Yeah, it was tough. It's

Speaker 6 tough loss. There's always next week.

Speaker 14 All right.

Speaker 27 Let's talk about week one.

Speaker 14 I'm going to move on mentally.

Speaker 26 The other thing that sucks, one last thing that sucks, like, it's 10 days now until the Bears play again. So it's basically we get to just basically pick them apart and be like, they stink.

Speaker 41 Well, 85, like, Bears, all the flashbacks during the game. That was nice, too.

Speaker 6 It was. And the Mount Rushmores.
Those are nice. Keep stealing our bits.
They stole our idea.

Speaker 1 Keep stealing our bits.

Speaker 6 They stole our idea to talk about Mount Rushmore.

Speaker 11 We created Mount Rushmore.

Speaker 41 It's definitely not a coincidence that we did a whole summer at Mount Rushmore.

Speaker 26 And then they do that opening night.

Speaker 6 Also, it's after Labor Day. Why were all the coaches wearing white hats? That was concerning.

Speaker 27 I actually kind of liked them.

Speaker 46 I think they looked pretty clean. You like the white?

Speaker 6 All dressed in white? Yeah.

Speaker 6 Virginal?

Speaker 14 Yeah.

Speaker 24 I thought it was pretty cool.

Speaker 6 I thought it was pretty cool. Is that going to be like a season-long thing, or is that just...
They shouldn't do that after Labor Day. It's not fashionable.

Speaker 9 They're stealing baseball's shine.

Speaker 6 That's right, yeah. All white caps, all black caps on the other team.

Speaker 14 And everyone being on a lot.

Speaker 17 I'm so sick of live streams.

Speaker 24 So many pictures of just shit.

Speaker 26 Just shit.

Speaker 28 I didn't eat any carbs tonight or any cookies.

Speaker 14 Good for you.

Speaker 41 You look very thin with the mustache.

Speaker 14 I'm going to clap for myself. Week one.
Wait, no, before we do week one, Antonio Brown's fucking nutcase.

Speaker 6 That's another spin zone for you. Is the biggest story is probably not going to be the Bears or the Bears' offense.
It's going to be Antonio Brown is still insane.

Speaker 24 Okay, so I have a take on this.

Speaker 28 No one to blame but Mike Mayock and John Gruden.

Speaker 26 They are 100% to blame.

Speaker 24 Mike Mayock, you brought this head case in. Antonio Brown has proven time and time again that he's a dickhead.

Speaker 26 He has done nothing to disprove that.

Speaker 2 He filmed Mike Tomlin during a

Speaker 21 post-game closed-door meeting.

Speaker 2 He didn't show up for week 17.

Speaker 14 He threw a football.

Speaker 43 Like, he did all these things

Speaker 43 before he got traded to the Raiders. He demanded a trade to the Raiders.
He spent an offseason being crazy with his blonde mustache. You traded for him.

Speaker 26 When he comes and he does exactly what you expected him to do, you cannot be surprised.

Speaker 43 And I'll go even one further, Mike Mayock and John Gruden have some common sense.

Speaker 26 Don't find Antonio Brown.

Speaker 25 I know that you got to, you know, there are no superstars, blah, blah, blah.

Speaker 43 Everyone's got to be treated safe.

Speaker 26 Antonio Brown, the pros are that he is the best wide receiver when healthy and on in the NFL. The cons are all this shit.

Speaker 25 You haven't played a game yet.

Speaker 24 Why don't you play a game before you try to find him and make matters worse?

Speaker 26 And now I don't know where they're left, but I honestly don't blame anyone but Mike Mayock and John Gruden because Antonio Brown has been consistent with his dickhead behavior.

Speaker 14 Right.

Speaker 6 We have to ask what was Mike Mayok's role in this. What was it? No,

Speaker 6 what was he wearing at first?

Speaker 14 But do you disagree?

Speaker 6 Were there elements of provocation? No, I agree with you. Like, it's not like there was a big question of who Antonio Brown was.
He's been very clear.

Speaker 6 And whatever happened in Pittsburgh, hey, credit to Mike Tomlin for all the weird shit that he says that nobody can describe unless you have a Dick Tracy Dakota ring or whatever.

Speaker 6 He at least kept most of that stuff indoors. Right.
Like, I'm sure there were plenty of things that Antonio Brown did that nobody else ever found out about.

Speaker 6 I also want to give credit. Well, maybe not even credit.
Is this the pussification of Vontez Berfict? Because Vontez Berfick

Speaker 6 was the one that was holding him back when Vontez Berfict and Richie Incognito are the ones that are like the voice of reason. They're the comm head in an argument quickly.

Speaker 41 They're going to be the issue of the NFL.

Speaker 14 Yeah, it is.

Speaker 6 And you know what?

Speaker 1 All right, so I'll say one thing in defense of Mike Mayok.

Speaker 24 He probably, the one part that sucks for him is it's been very clear since Antonio Brown signed that they were going to do a good cop, bad cop, Mike Mayok, John Gruden, where John Gruden was going to fully support Antonio Brown, publicly support him so that Antonio Brown buys in on John Gruden's plan.

Speaker 21 Mike Mayock had to be the enforcer, the bad, you know, the strict parent.

Speaker 2 So in that, in only that, Mike Mayok got a raw end of the deal because Antonio Brown almost knocked him out.

Speaker 43 But everything else,

Speaker 2 you got to either live with it because that's what you should have expected or cut them if you can't handle it. But there will be significantly.

Speaker 2 I mean, did you see the depth chart of the Raiders when Antonio Brown's not?

Speaker 14 They don't have any Hunter Renfro. They don't have anyone.

Speaker 6 I want to see Hunter Renfro come out with a blonde mustache that he's died. That would be something.

Speaker 26 It's going to be very interesting whether they suspend him for a game or not, or they give him maybe the Bobby Bowden take your helmet off for the first time.

Speaker 14 For the first play, I don't think he'll play.

Speaker 6 I don't think he's going to play. I don't think that he's going to play.
Here's my take. He's not going to ever play a game as a Raider.
I think they're either going to cut him.

Speaker 6 They're probably not going to be able to trade him anywhere. And then you have to ask,

Speaker 6 when Antonio Brown goes in the Hall of Fame, which he will, is he going to go in as a Bill or as a Raider?

Speaker 14 Yeah.

Speaker 6 Two great franchises that he played for. This, by the way, is why the Houston Texans are a model franchise because they don't have a general manager to get punched in the face by their best player.

Speaker 9 Well, Bill O'Brien has done the nice power struggle where he calls all the shots.

Speaker 6 It also looks like he's been punched in the chin a few times. Astros tied it up.

Speaker 22 I parlayed the Bears' money line and the Astros.

Speaker 26 The Astros were losing 7-0. So now the Astros are going to win because the Bears lost.

Speaker 14 That's how the cookie crosses. And you know what?

Speaker 6 And I saw you tweet about this.

Speaker 14 I didn't need any cookies.

Speaker 6 I saw you tweet about this, but yeah, the fact that Mike Mayock didn't have any cameras on him at all,

Speaker 6 and then we don't have any cameras on this.

Speaker 6 Did this actually happen? Is this like a Jeffrey Epstein thing where the cameras mysteriously were turned off and we don't ever get to see the fight that occurred?

Speaker 6 Because I need to see footage of this.

Speaker 26 I just know that when you're talking about pro sports i know people don't like to hear this but superstars do get different treatment and superstars who are out of this world talented will get away with some things that other guys won't that's just what pro sports are so to hold antonio brown to the same standards and fine him for fifty thousand dollars or whatever it was because what was even the fine for he didn't show up to practice yeah it was uh he missed he missed the walkthrough to doing game day and then get him on the field That's probably why John Gruden said on hard knocks don't miss your flight like several times right I'm thinking Antonio Brown maybe missed a flight don't he seems like a guy that brings all the wrong shit through airport security get him on the field He should

Speaker 26 have like nine water bottles in his bag every time everything else doesn't matter literally everything else doesn't matter because when you're the rate when you're the Raiders like you you are trying to win football games for the first time in a long time talent should be the paramount thing whereas like hey hey, Antonio Brown might be punting footballs.

Speaker 14 Like, it doesn't matter.

Speaker 27 It doesn't matter. You need him on the field.

Speaker 6 That's the old Brandon Marshall trick. Just show up at practice and start kicking.

Speaker 14 Pajama pants.

Speaker 6 Field goals.

Speaker 6 Listen. Just like punting the shit of the ball off.

Speaker 31 Brandon Marshall was able to get away with a lot of things when he was a similar kind of black cloud around his locker room until his talent had expired.

Speaker 6 Do you think Antonio Brown is the weirdest player in the NFL right now? I think he's got to be, right? I don't know. There's probably some

Speaker 41 Magic the Gathering guy still in the league.

Speaker 6 Oh, yeah, my guy, Cassius Marsh. Yeah, that guy is very weird.
He's very weird. He had, what, like, $50,000 worth of Magic the Gathering card stolen out of the back of his car?

Speaker 41 He also blocked like half of New England when he left.

Speaker 3 Chris Long used to be.

Speaker 28 I mean,

Speaker 14 he's just pothead making the NFL

Speaker 14 too super low. Let's not minimize it.

Speaker 6 Let's not minimize it by calling it pot. That kind of makes it sound like it's a fun drug.
That's true. He was a hard drug user, scheduled one.

Speaker 6 Chris Long is a scheduled one narcotics user.

Speaker 11 No, actually, you know what?

Speaker 22 The weirdest guy in the NFL is how about the guy who basically divorced his whole entire family and is mercurial and really cranky and should be over the hill.

Speaker 24 All right, let's do some picks.

Speaker 21 Oh, before we do some picks, PFT, you have something for us, right?

Speaker 6 Yes, yeah, before we get to the picks, and this is one of my favorite times of the year when we get into finally gambling about football.

Speaker 6 And this year on the show, we're going to do an over and under,

Speaker 6 an underdog and a favorite.

Speaker 6 That's amazing odds. That is.
I can't believe it. So let's get into our week one picks.
Hank, do you want to go first?

Speaker 2 Real quick, just two other things.

Speaker 20 Tariq Cohen had zero carries.

Speaker 36 I'm just keep looking. I don't want to go backwards.

Speaker 24 Tariq Cohen had zero carries. Okay.

Speaker 21 That's an excuse.

Speaker 41 But all the punt returns, yeah, you could probably count.

Speaker 14 Tariq Cohen had zero carries. And Adrian Amos, of course, had the fucking interception.

Speaker 29 And Hank, I threw this this hypothetical out there while we were watching the game.

Speaker 22 Tell me what your thoughts are.

Speaker 46 If the Bears' defense played offense, do you think they could score more than three points?

Speaker 41 Yeah, just hand the ball to Khalil Mack. Right.

Speaker 35 Khalil Mack, and then, I mean, like, Leonard Floyd could be an unbelievable tight end.

Speaker 26 Roquan Smith is a burner. Just get him in space.

Speaker 6 I actually think Dix in the slot.

Speaker 26 The Bears

Speaker 9 could have scored six points if they just had offense, defense playing both sides of the ball.

Speaker 6 Yeah, and can we just talk about that punt at the end of the game real quick?

Speaker 14 The fourth punt that went to the bottom of the field. That guy is a film.

Speaker 41 That punt packers punt that punt that went loser 70 yards the best is the still the stillest take off the hat when his when his leg is vertically up in the air and you see his tiny little ass he took his helmet off and he's a he's a pencil neck geek that was a good punt though the i don't i i might i might be wrong on this because i was just looking i looked up and i but the when the packer when the bears went for it on fourth and ten when they were at like the 35 and could have just kicked a field goal, but there was no way they're getting the fourth and 10.

Speaker 41 That was where I was like.

Speaker 6 That was the weirdest play.

Speaker 14 That was basically a punt.

Speaker 31 Yes.

Speaker 21 But you might as well have just kicked a field.

Speaker 35 And then rushed the play.

Speaker 27 And I mean, the two delay of games on a drive is, that's clown shit. That is clown shit.

Speaker 14 All right.

Speaker 25 Didn't want to go back there.

Speaker 9 Hank, you want to start us?

Speaker 10 Let's go favorites first.

Speaker 14 And give us a little reason why.

Speaker 24 Oh, by the way, before we do this, I just circled this.

Speaker 46 It's not one of my picks, but we have a week one loser leaves town game.

Speaker 14 Oh, let's go.

Speaker 26 49ers at Bucs.

Speaker 39 I think the loser leaves town.

Speaker 37 I think the loser is done.

Speaker 33 I see both teams are on the fringe.

Speaker 26 I think it's loser leaves town.

Speaker 6 Do you guys agree?

Speaker 14 I don't know. I don't know.
I mean, I'm saying it's bucks.

Speaker 6 Because here's loser leaves town.

Speaker 14 Here's the thing.

Speaker 41 There's a logic you want to get into, big cat.

Speaker 14 No, you know. That's all I'll say.

Speaker 6 Can I tell you why not?

Speaker 14 Because that logic is truck.

Speaker 6 If the 49ers lose and they get off to like a slow start and there's an injury to Jimmy G or they bring in a backup quarterback. Nick Mullens.

Speaker 14 Kyle Shanahan.

Speaker 6 Yeah, shout out Nick Mullins. Wister of the show.
Kyle Shanahan is the king of doing so much with a backup quarterback that you're like, this guy can get it turned around.

Speaker 26 Winning like five games in November and December.

Speaker 6 Yep, exactly.

Speaker 14 All right, Hank, go ahead. All right, Hank.

Speaker 41 Favorite, I'll go with the Chiefs. I feel like

Speaker 41 everyone's like, oh, the Jaguars defense. Watch out for the Jaguars, like Nick Foles.
But then it's going to be like, oh, wait, it's Patrick Mahomes.

Speaker 6 They're actually thinking about putting Miles Jack at running back. That's what it was.

Speaker 6 So the Jaguars are actually considering this due to the impending Leonard Fournette ankle explosion that takes place week two, or if he misses another picture day and they have to bench him.

Speaker 6 But yeah, Miles Jackett, running back, could be pretty electric.

Speaker 5 Can I throw something out there for you?

Speaker 29 Sure.

Speaker 26 Chiefs, Jaguars, last year, Patrick Mahomes, 50 touchdowns, MVP.

Speaker 9 He had zero touchdowns, two interceptions against that defense.

Speaker 41 Coming for revenge.

Speaker 14 I'm just saying. The one defense.

Speaker 41 He's got a bad against, he wants to go out and push something.

Speaker 26 You added Josh Allen to it. Josh Allen's going to be a beast.

Speaker 14 Both of them.

Speaker 6 Yep, but both of them.

Speaker 14 Big dick Nick. Yeah.

Speaker 2 And big dick Nick. Okay.

Speaker 14 Bad pick, Hank.

Speaker 6 Really bad pick.

Speaker 14 My favorite.

Speaker 6 Wait, did you go favorite? Yeah, favorite. Okay, my favorite.
I'm going Tampa Bay. Loser Leaves.
Minus one and a half. I got it at Pick'em.
I like it even better at minus one and a half.

Speaker 6 I don't know why, but it just makes me feel better knowing that I was right originally. Don't be the same.

Speaker 6 I'm doubling down on it. And I'm saying, yeah, I like it better at minus 1.5.
I like Bruce Arians.

Speaker 6 I like Jameis Winston more than I liked him last year. I think that the offense is going to be a lot better.
And I think Steven. Yeah.

Speaker 14 What, you know?

Speaker 3 You think the offense line still stinks?

Speaker 6 Do you think the offense is going to be worse with Bruce Arians?

Speaker 41 I mean, I just don't know what the difference between Jameis last year and this year is. Yeah, none.

Speaker 6 Bruce Arians. None.

Speaker 14 They'll have one game and they're going to...

Speaker 28 They'll be like, is Jameis turning a corner?

Speaker 6 Bruce will will his hands to become bigger. That's how good of a coach he is.

Speaker 14 All right, my favorite is it's a stinky one.

Speaker 26 I think the Detroit Lions are going to be a little bit better than people expect.

Speaker 44 I think their defense is going to be very good, and I think their defense will fuck up the Cardinals week one.

Speaker 31 Kyler Murray not ready for prime time.

Speaker 22 Detroit, minus two and a half.

Speaker 6 There's no film on Kyler, though.

Speaker 41 Did you guys hear that little birdie rumor? I forget who he was.

Speaker 4 I heard that. I heard that.

Speaker 43 They didn't run any of those plays, but I think Detroit's got.

Speaker 2 Is there any truth to that?

Speaker 14 Is that even a possibility?

Speaker 6 Somebody told me that their offensive lineman on the Cardinals said that in a Fortnite stream. I know.

Speaker 6 Yeah, so that's good enough for me. That's good enough for Leroy to run with six times a week, twice on Sundays.
I think that Kyler Murray is going going to be a little bit different.

Speaker 6 What does Matt Patricia do to prepare for a game? What does he do? He's a film guy. That's all he does, right? He just grinds film.

Speaker 32 He's probably watched every Texas tech game.

Speaker 39 He's got a spreadsheet.

Speaker 6 He probably has, but he hasn't seen Kyler Murray in the offense.

Speaker 26 I think Detroit's going to be better than people expect.

Speaker 23 I think they're a sneaky team.

Speaker 14 Okay.

Speaker 6 Kyle Sloader revenge game. Detroit didn't sign him.
Arizona Dead.

Speaker 36 I'm not trying to make Kyle Sloater happen.

Speaker 6 I'm not. I like him as a great quarterback.
I'm trying to make a great backup quarterback.

Speaker 14 Hank, dog. Dog.
Dog.

Speaker 32 Hit us with a dog.

Speaker 41 My dog.

Speaker 9 You did not prep for this.

Speaker 41 Well, honestly, I didn't do this with you guys last year, so I wasn't expected to get thrown into the cup, but my dog is going to be the Redskins.

Speaker 14 Oh, okay. That's plus 10.
A terrible pick. But you get it off.
Okay. Okay.
He's not starting. Really? Well, that's okay, but he's going to be on the field.

Speaker 6 He's on the sideline. Yeah.
He's a good clipboard guy. It's Case Keenum.

Speaker 41 It's always good, though, to have, like, because he's so good at quarterback that Case Keenum's going to be like, fuck, got to play back. Got to play off.

Speaker 6 That's right, he's well yep confidential you gotta keep them within 10 good also the best quarterback on the Redskins might be Rob Ryan if you saw him dropping dimes in practice today it was amazing 10 is a lot for a week one game and especially a divisional my thoughts exactly yeah their defense is

Speaker 6 um my dog is the dolphins we're taking the dolphins plus 6.5 against the Ravens at home.

Speaker 24 Your seven-win Dolphins.

Speaker 6 My seven-win Dolphins. Ryan Fitzmagic, it's early in the season.

Speaker 6 That's all I'm going off. Literally all I'm going off of is last year Ryan Fitzpatrick played well when he first got in.
I don't hate that logic.

Speaker 31 I really don't.

Speaker 26 Okay, by the way, PFT is still wearing his Green Bay Packers owner's hat.

Speaker 44 If you want to watch it, barstillgold.com slash PMT.

Speaker 46 BarstillGold.com slash PMT.

Speaker 26 Firefighter we had on yesterday.

Speaker 24 Bonus episode.

Speaker 26 My dog, Falcons, plus four.

Speaker 17 I can't quit the Falcons.

Speaker 32 I can't. I think they're going to be awesome this year.

Speaker 14 I don't know.

Speaker 14 I think I'm out.

Speaker 3 I think I'm out for life on the Falcons.

Speaker 14 I think they're going to be awesome this year.

Speaker 24 I will bet the Falcons. Every single year I'm waiting for the Falcons to have their best game.

Speaker 14 Why not week one? Sure. Offensively stacked.
Why not week one? Why could they not score?

Speaker 47 How could they not?

Speaker 41 They only have two games not on turf fields.

Speaker 15 Defense?

Speaker 3 Is that true? I think so.

Speaker 14 Maybe not.

Speaker 41 I think I heard someone say that today.

Speaker 14 That sounds good.

Speaker 26 Wait, that can't be right because they have to play the Bucs and the Panthers.

Speaker 22 So you're saying every other game that they play away is on the turf?

Speaker 10 12 or 13 games on the turf.

Speaker 27 Okay, that's close enough.

Speaker 15 I'll give it to you.

Speaker 6 I've also heard Julio Jones is not happy about his contract. So take that for what it's worth.
He's going to light it up.

Speaker 14 He's going to light it up. Oh, yeah.

Speaker 41 A lot of turf here.

Speaker 14 A lot of turf. Panthers.

Speaker 41 That's not turf. 49ers, Buccaneers.

Speaker 14 Yep.

Speaker 41 Everywhere else is turf.

Speaker 14 Wow. Okay.
Okay. Stance.

Speaker 14 All right, Hank, you're over.

Speaker 41 My over.

Speaker 14 Fuck, where did it go?

Speaker 41 My overs, Patriots. Patriots, Steelers.

Speaker 26 Okay, I'm going to cut in line, PFT, because that's my under.

Speaker 14 Ooh.

Speaker 6 The Patriots.

Speaker 26 I think the Patriots are going to be playing like run the ball, run the ball.

Speaker 44 They have a very good defense. I think they are going to be a slow team this year that

Speaker 26 grinds teams down.

Speaker 41 Fully stocked every single practice, no injuries, good receivers. Like they've all come together in camp.

Speaker 14 Bracebacks.

Speaker 14 Josh Gordon is playing.

Speaker 6 Yeah. He is.
This will be his game this year.

Speaker 21 So who are the other receivers?

Speaker 41 Harry Edelman.

Speaker 41 Danny Woodhead. No, Harry's going to play.

Speaker 14 I mean, not Danny.

Speaker 6 Yeah, no, Danny.

Speaker 6 Never count Danny Kirkhead.

Speaker 21 Danny Woodhead.

Speaker 35 Wait, Nikhil Harry's not playing.

Speaker 6 He's not? No, he's injured. He's hurt.
Okay.

Speaker 31 So I like the under.

Speaker 1 I think the Patriots are going to be a grinded-out team.

Speaker 24 I think they're going to be a power-running team.

Speaker 44 They have a very good offensive line and a very good defense.

Speaker 6 Listen to Mr. Analysis over here.

Speaker 24 I've had to read so much football shit in the last week.

Speaker 46 I'm ready for week one.

Speaker 14 I'm just going to take, yeah,

Speaker 6 I want to almost change my favorite pick and go with the Patriots. Hank has sold me on him.

Speaker 14 What are you going to say?

Speaker 41 Do you know about this Patriots receiver, PFD, whose name is Caleb Gunner Oswalski?

Speaker 14 Oh, yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 6 I saw that. Would he wear like number six or something?

Speaker 14 He was made made out of a Bill Belichick lab or number 72.

Speaker 41 This guy's unreal.

Speaker 6 If Bill Belichick, if he logs on to Uporn, it's just a picture of

Speaker 6 the suggested videos.

Speaker 26 All right, so PFTI cut in line there for the under.

Speaker 14 Or sorry, you're on the over.

Speaker 6 My over is I'm taking Tampa Bay and 49ers. Oh, you're double dipping on that one.

Speaker 14 I'm double dipping on that one.

Speaker 6 I think that the, again, Tampa Bay's offense is going to be really good. I think that the 49ers' offense is going to be better than people think.
So, yeah, I'm running with that.

Speaker 2 Okay, my over, I'm doing Bills, Jets, over 41, two good defenses.

Speaker 9 Why not?

Speaker 14 Okay.

Speaker 19 Just do the reverse.

Speaker 18 Just do the reverse on it. Josh Allen, breakout year.

Speaker 41 I'll take the reverse on that. Okay, great.

Speaker 14 We're locked off.

Speaker 26 Josh Allen and Sam Donald are going to have breakout years.

Speaker 46 You heard it here first.

Speaker 26 And if it's not true, then you never heard it.

Speaker 20 We'll delete this part of the podcast.

Speaker 14 Absolutely. You finish us up with that.

Speaker 6 And then my under is going to be Redskins, Eagles. 45.
Okay.

Speaker 6 Take the under on that because Dwayne Haskins, I don't think that he's had enough reps in practice to really be efficient at a starting quarter.

Speaker 6 Hey, it's PFT here, reminding you that Boarshead makes game day entertaining elevated and effortless.

Speaker 6 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 6 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 home gating celebration.

Speaker 6 Seriously, guys, it's a game-changing flavor for every gathering. Boar's head, committed to craft since 1905.

Speaker 14 All right,

Speaker 14 let's do our fantasy fuckboys.

Speaker 32 Can we get it up for that?

Speaker 6 It's late at night.

Speaker 2 Can we do it? Can we get it up for it?

Speaker 20 Can we do it?

Speaker 14 I'm ready to roll. All right, let's do it.
Hank, Hank, you should start.

Speaker 51 What's up, everybody? I'm back. Malo Aruzzioni, my stardom.
Good to be back, guys.

Speaker 14 Fantasy Fuck Boys.

Speaker 14 You're watching a lot of wire.

Speaker 51 My stardom is Goth.

Speaker 51 Goth fashion is back. If you're in high school and you dress like a goth, you are the fucking shit.

Speaker 14 Hell yeah. Get some black checkers, get some mascara, throw it on.

Speaker 51 You'll get a hand job.

Speaker 52 Turn up the cure.

Speaker 51 My sitim, Eskimos.

Speaker 51 Global warming. You're fucked.

Speaker 14 Good good call. Got him.

Speaker 51 And my sleeper is Dwayne Haskins. He's on the bench, but you never know when he's going to get in there.
And when he does, he's going to tear it off.

Speaker 14 Love it.

Speaker 52 I love it. Good pitch, Marlow, as usual.

Speaker 52 Hey, what's up, guys? This is OJ Simpson. This weekend, I'm starting Joe Flacco.
What's up? I'm starting Flacco. You think I'm gonna make a white Bronco joke, but I'm not.

Speaker 21 That would be very lazy.

Speaker 52 I'm actually gonna say John Gruden is gonna be distracted with all the cleanup after he cuts someone named Brown. Start Flacco.
I'm sitting Fritos. Sitting Fritos big time.

Speaker 52 Fritos are nothing more than a bugle that smells like your dog's foot.

Speaker 52 You want it? yeah, that's what I'm talking about. You want a game time snack that want to satisfy your guests? It's not your time, baby.
Hate Britos. Throw some cheese on that bitch.

Speaker 14 Throw some cheese on that bitch.

Speaker 52 I'm sleeping, succession, the TV program. That's right.

Speaker 14 All-time scene.

Speaker 52 Cousin Greg asking permission to blackmail. And as one myself, I appreciate his manners.
Great show top to bottom.

Speaker 52 And I will always appreciate a show, any program where the most cutthroat character is named Shiv.

Speaker 39 They got it right.

Speaker 14 Craig the Egg Fox.

Speaker 52 What up, guys? It's Tony Rose Beef. I'm back for some more fantasy fuckboys.
My stardom, Mike Mayock, because Mike Mayox going back to the NFL network.

Speaker 14 Start those Mike Mayok is him downhill thumper, burp the baby, bumble butt, tap a pull, all the hips. He's just a jack.
He's a jack.

Speaker 14 He called Antonio Brown only wasted hip and then he came out with the fury.

Speaker 26 My sit him, fresh air.

Speaker 14 Football's back.

Speaker 39 You're sitting on your couch. Say goodbye to the atmosphere.
Tell me how I'm supposed to breathe with no air.

Speaker 25 My sleeper, bleeding out of your eyeball.

Speaker 14 Joe Biden made it cool.

Speaker 53 And if Joe Biden can bleed out of his eyeball, anyone could bleed out of their eyeballs.

Speaker 14 Getting old socks, you just bleed out of your eyeball or your third eye.

Speaker 52 He's looking Bob Costa Chic.

Speaker 14 Ass eating season big time. All right, fantasy fuck boys.

Speaker 6 You guys think Joe Biden eats ass? I think he's got to.

Speaker 14 What happened with his eyeball? I don't know.

Speaker 41 That was someone should bring a side to one of his rallies, like Flume, and see what happens.

Speaker 14 Oh, good call. Yeah, there you go.
Yeah.

Speaker 6 You don't need to ask.

Speaker 2 So, as a guy who pissed blood and didn't go to the doctor, I probably don't have a leg to stand on here.

Speaker 24 But I think you should go see a doctor when you just spontaneously start bleeding out of your eyeball.

Speaker 6 Yeah, unless you're Chris Long, and that's just from all the chiba.

Speaker 24 Yeah, he's he, Joe Biden's going to be like Clay Thompson next debate and just start bleeding out of his ear.

Speaker 6 That would be amazing. I mean, his brain is leaking.

Speaker 14 His brain is literally leaking.

Speaker 6 He's got to mix it up somehow. And what better way to like remind people that you don't need universal health care than to just stand on stage crying tears of blood and not doing shit about it?

Speaker 21 All right, let's get to our interviews. Before we get to our interviews, let's do a couple quick ads and Larry's picks.

Speaker 11 So just a reminder, Larry, the stock is out.

Speaker 14 Who is shirt is out?

Speaker 1 He's our gambling goldfish.

Speaker 6 You should know this by now. He's the sixth iteration of Larry.
The other ones have passed on, gone to fish heaven.

Speaker 50 He's in the Las Vegas Super Contest.

Speaker 11 He is competing for, I think, a $2 million prize.

Speaker 31 If you buy a t-shirt, you own a stock in Larry, and if we win the $2 million prize, you will get a cut of it after processing fees.

Speaker 6 Yes, that's right. Now, these are certified financial stocks.
They're real. They're totally legit.
You have your money safe with us when you invest with Larry.

Speaker 14 So, Hank,

Speaker 40 we have Larry.

Speaker 1 Larry made the picks this week.

Speaker 32 Hank, you have them.

Speaker 14 You have four of them. You have five.

Speaker 34 Four.

Speaker 41 You should have five. The fifth one is going to be on Barcelon Sports Advisors.

Speaker 14 Oh, shit.

Speaker 8 Forgot about that.

Speaker 14 Okay.

Speaker 25 Here we go.

Speaker 5 Barcelon Sports Advisors on Sunday morning.

Speaker 14 Ducks are going to come out on Friday. Tune morning.
Oh, tune them on Friday.

Speaker 26 Hank, what's the first matchup?

Speaker 41 Falcons and Vikings. Okay.

Speaker 26 So the Las Vegas Super Contest line for that is Vikings minus four.

Speaker 14 All right.

Speaker 44 Before Hank tells us who he has, you can tell us in the middle of the ad.

Speaker 2 What's up, guys?

Speaker 30 It's Big Cat here making my Irish entrance with proper number 12 Irish whiskey.

Speaker 38 How do you make an Irish entrance, you ask?

Speaker 48 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 25 Original proper number 12 is rich in a smooth blend of golden grain and single malt, aged four years in bourbon barrels.

Speaker 23 Mix it up with some ginger ale for a classic and refreshing proper ginger.

Speaker 10 In the mood for something smooth but a little sweeter, try proper Irish apple, a delicious blend of Propper's award-winning Irish whiskey with crisp, fresh notes of apple.

Speaker 14 So get out there and make your Irish entrance.

Speaker 38 Anything else just wouldn't be proper.

Speaker 14 Okay, next pick. Hank.

Speaker 41 The Jaguars and the Cheaps.

Speaker 14 Okay.

Speaker 6 This one I had the...

Speaker 14 I'm going Jaguars in this one. I'm loving this one.

Speaker 20 Yeah, well, you already heard our picks.

Speaker 14 But yeah. Yes, that's right.
Yeah, you have to do that. As I said earlier, that's right.

Speaker 6 If you weren't listening.

Speaker 14 Okay, so

Speaker 14 we have some.

Speaker 6 Do you think there's anybody that skips ahead just to hear the ads?

Speaker 14 Yes. Yes.
So that was

Speaker 14 advertising. Adaholics.

Speaker 26 We have some not-so-breaking moves.

Speaker 21 Bud Light is crisp.

Speaker 35 I know it.

Speaker 26 You know it.

Speaker 1 Even Stella knows it. Oh, that's my dog.

Speaker 21 Rather than spending an entire ad read reminding you that crispy boys are crisp, Bud Light is giving the other half of its ad read to small businesses.

Speaker 2 For a chance to be featured, simply tweet or DM at Bud Light an ad for your business with hashtag Bud LightSmallBiz.

Speaker 35 But no free ads.

Speaker 2 Your script must include the words Crisp and Bud Light, and Bud Light will be doing this all season long, so keep sending those scripts.

Speaker 8 This week's winner is Brick and Motor Boutique.

Speaker 1 Fall 2019 is the season for Bud Light, sweaters, and chill.

Speaker 24 Let Brick and Motor Boutique turn your average wardrobe into the crisp, cozy fall wardrobe you've been wanting.

Speaker 32 Perfect for Christian Girl Autumn.

Speaker 14 I love it. Trendy, affordable, brick and motor boutique.

Speaker 26 Check them out. Brick and motor boutique.
Do we have a pick?

Speaker 30 Brick and motor boutique.

Speaker 14 What's that? Do we have a pick?

Speaker 14 Jaguars. The Jaguars.

Speaker 18 There we go.

Speaker 14 Jagging off. Good for you, Larry.

Speaker 29 The Jags are plus three and a half in this half in a super contest.

Speaker 26 So there's the first two Larry picks.

Speaker 35 Let's do an interview.

Speaker 30 We got Coach O first, then Demarcus Ware.

Speaker 1 Maybe a Larry pick in between.

Speaker 14 Let's go to it.

Speaker 6 What's up, guys? Coach. How's it going, Coach?

Speaker 14 Oh, we're doing good, man. How are you guys doing?

Speaker 11 We're doing great.

Speaker 46 We now welcome on one of our favorite guests.

Speaker 2 It is Coach O, or should I say, Air Raid Ed?

Speaker 26 Should we start there?

Speaker 43 Are you a spread offense guy now, Coacho?

Speaker 43 We are a spread offense, man.

Speaker 55 I'm excited about it with the talent we have, the quarterback we have. I'm looking forward to this offense really exploding this season.

Speaker 6 It is fun to watch. And Joe is playing well.
I saw that you gave a little behind the scenes about his pregame ritual where he just bangs his head against the wall to get himself fired up.

Speaker 6 Are there any concerns that you have that maybe he might pull a gust ferrat and hurt himself?

Speaker 14 Or is that just how he chooses to get up?

Speaker 55 It was just a light tap. It was just a light tap.
That got over exaggerated, but you know, Joe is one of my favorite all-time players. The way he approaches the game, he's like a linebacker.

Speaker 55 He's the heart and soul of offense. He makes it go, and he's just a great, great team player.

Speaker 21 So we're going to run this interview on Friday before the big matchup on Saturday night against Texas.

Speaker 40 Are you, how's the, what's today?

Speaker 19 Wait, today is Tell the Truth Monday.

Speaker 11 So we're taping it on Tell the Truth Monday.

Speaker 34 What's the truth about this upcoming matchup?

Speaker 55 The truth about this upcoming matchup, it's always going to be about LSU. It's going to be about us taking care of the football, taking out

Speaker 55 going on the road in a hostile environment, playing great defense, playing great special teams, and scoring points. But their quarterback is an excellent football player.

Speaker 55 We're going to have to tackle him, contain him. He's the key to the game.

Speaker 6 Yep, yeah. Do you like playing under the lights better, or do you like those day games?

Speaker 55 You know, I like it underneath the lights, and on Saturday night at Death Valley is where we like to roam. This is going to be a tremendous atmosphere.

Speaker 55 It's the first time I play at UT Stadium, so it'll be a great experience for us all.

Speaker 31 Speaking of which, speaking of day versus night, are you, when we came down to Louisiana and saw you a couple years ago,

Speaker 25 you told us that you run in the heat of the day every single day.

Speaker 42 Do you still do that?

Speaker 55 At noon, yes, high noon. Jesus.
I say the heat is our friend, or if it'd be our friend, we need to just spend time with it. So I run every day, and we love practicing in the heat.

Speaker 55 We've had some hot days here in Louisiana, so we're going to be very well prepared.

Speaker 25 I love it. That's like a different, I mean, running, like willingly going out for a jog in the middle of the Baton Rouge summer heat.

Speaker 26 That's

Speaker 21 some insanity, and I love it.

Speaker 14 I love it.

Speaker 14 So

Speaker 6 you choose to make the sun your friend as opposed to competing against it.

Speaker 6 That's right.

Speaker 55 I want it to be my friend, but in order to be be my friend, I have to spend time with it.

Speaker 43 You got to get some quality time with that son.

Speaker 14 Let it know the heat.

Speaker 40 Yeah, you're just a friend of the heat.

Speaker 6 I love it. So

Speaker 6 it is Tell the Truth Monday. How long did you give yourself to enjoy the win on Saturday?

Speaker 55 You know, we did, we really did. You know, Saturday night, obviously, we got

Speaker 55 some recruits there. We got home about midnight, wouldn't sleep, worked all day on Sunday.
It was a good atmosphere in the building.

Speaker 55 You know, obviously everybody wants to go towards Texas, over towards Texas, but I want to enjoy the process. Tell the truth Monday, get the young men back in here, enjoy the game.

Speaker 55 And now we have a 24-hour role. Now, our focus now is totally on Texas.

Speaker 2 Yeah, and then wait, Tuesday is turnover Tuesday, right?

Speaker 55 Tuesday is Competition Tuesday.

Speaker 6 Competition Tuesday. Turnover Wednesday.

Speaker 14 Turnover Wednesday.

Speaker 55 And Wednesday is Turnover Wednesday. Thursday's no repeat Thursday.

Speaker 55 And Friday is Focus Friday. And that's when we bang the drums at 3 o'clock.
But we're going to bang them a little early because we've got to get on the plane.

Speaker 14 Yeah, that's right.

Speaker 6 Is that the heartbeat meeting that you guys do?

Speaker 55 That's a heartbeat meeting. Yes, yes.
We love it.

Speaker 6 We got to go.

Speaker 6 Yeah, we need to get there for one of those. What goes into that?

Speaker 6 You bring a big bass drum in, you just start banging it or what?

Speaker 55 Yeah. Yeah.
Well, you know, we have T-Boy now. T-Boy, T-Boy is a drum man, so T-Boy gets up.
He has a nice little heartbeat. We all get focused in the

Speaker 55 same wavelength. Everybody, you know, just gets focused in on their own way.

Speaker 55 And we beat that drum for about a minute, and I say a couple of words, and I say, special teams, ready, ready. And everybody claps three times, pap, pap, pap, pap, pap, pap.

Speaker 55 Then we get the day started, just a way for us all to get focused in on the task at hand.

Speaker 34 I got to ask the most important question the offseason.

Speaker 54 Was that you on the beach when that guy fell down? No, no, no, no, no.

Speaker 20 You sure? No, no, positive. But you know what? I do have a joke.
I say.

Speaker 55 But to everybody, yeah, that was me. I was chasing my next recruit.

Speaker 8 When you saw that, though, did you do a double take?

Speaker 25 You're like, wait, was that me? Because it really did look like you.

Speaker 25 No, no, no, no, no, no.

Speaker 14 I'm a little slimmer than that. Yeah, that's true.
That's my bad.

Speaker 5 That's my bad.

Speaker 6 I think your pursuit's a little bit stronger than that, too. I've seen you out in some of the drills over the summer.
You like to get your hands dirty still sometimes with the line.

Speaker 6 Do you find yourself sometimes getting a little physical with them?

Speaker 55 No, you know, I just, I like, you know, coaching the defensive line, teaching them techniques.

Speaker 55 I've just got to use your hand, but I don't get physical with them, but you have to use your hands to teach technique.

Speaker 55 You know, just use a good demonstration every once in a while, but I'm getting old. I can't do it like I used to.

Speaker 31 Oh, come on.

Speaker 25 I know you can.

Speaker 14 I know you can.

Speaker 6 You're being modest.

Speaker 25 You absolutely could get in there. You could probably be a great third-down lineman right now on Saturday night if they needed you.

Speaker 55 I'll tell you, I love it. There's nothing like a sack bubble.

Speaker 14 I'll tell you that. That's true.

Speaker 42 That's true. All right.

Speaker 21 Well, I mean, we honestly just wanted to hear your voice because it had been too long, but we're very excited for Saturday night.

Speaker 38 We're very excited for the big game.

Speaker 21 I think we should all end this with a hearty go Tigers all around.

Speaker 54 Go Tigers. Go Tigers.

Speaker 55 You got it.

Speaker 14 Go Tigers. Love it.

Speaker 26 Thanks, Coach O. Good luck on Saturday night.

Speaker 55 Hey, guys, enjoy your show. Thank you.

Speaker 6 That interview with Coach O is brought to you by Peloton. And while we're doing this ad read, I think Larry might be looking at another pick here.

Speaker 41 He's looking at the Patriots and the Stillers.

Speaker 14 Oh, okay.

Speaker 6 There you go, Larry. Interesting game.

Speaker 14 Sunday night football.

Speaker 6 That's right. I love it.
The Collinsworth slide is back, but no, we canceled it, right? No, it's back. Are we excited about it? Yes.
I can't remember if we're excited about that or not yet.

Speaker 6 But yeah, I want to talk to you about Peloton real quick. You guys know I have the Peloton bike.
It's set up in my living room right now. You can follow me on that, see what workouts I'm doing.

Speaker 6 If I'm not working out enough on it, you can just yell at me online or yell at me on Peloton, whatever you want. But Peloton also has a new treadmill, and it's not just another treadmill.

Speaker 6 Peloton tread is being called like having a personal trainer come to your house whenever you'd like.

Speaker 6 In the New York Times, in Runner's World, they're saying it's a gorgeous hip New York City gym in the comfort of your own home and a go-to training tool. So I love my Peloton.

Speaker 6 I need to give this Peloton tread a shot, but here's some fun facts about it.

Speaker 6 It's got innovative hardware, a shock-absorbing slat belt, and responsive speed and incline knobs, weightless running, and up your pace or elevation without breaking your stride.

Speaker 14 Here we go. Oh, Stillers.

Speaker 14 Here we go. Stillers.

Speaker 39 Pitch Berg's go.

Speaker 14 Just Lair's got the Stillers.

Speaker 14 No, it's not.

Speaker 14 Oh, pay it for the family.

Speaker 23 And so they can go like to, you know, hashtag Snickers chain. That's almost like the new Flat Stanley.

Speaker 23 What's the story going to be with that chain as it keeps traveling through whatever team it's?

Speaker 23 You're a fan, so you get to vote, too.

Speaker 14 Come on. Yeah, I'm voting for all the bears.
Okay, so

Speaker 5 check it out. I'm wearing the chain.
I'm never going to take it off.

Speaker 29 Yes.

Speaker 5 I'm happy you're here because this morning, we're taping this on Wednesday. We're going to run this on Friday.

Speaker 26 Ezekiel Elliott got paid by Jerry Jones.

Speaker 11 Now, there's no one better to talk to about how the Cowboys work and how the payment works than you, Demarcus Ware.

Speaker 12 So how much money does Jerry Jones pay under the table to his players?

Speaker 23 None.

Speaker 23 But he do pay his players.

Speaker 14 Right. So not under the table.

Speaker 47 Not under the table, but right on top.

Speaker 14 Right on top.

Speaker 23 Today is over here and he's going to say, hey, so,

Speaker 23 Zeke,

Speaker 23 me and you talking. And I stopped smiling.

Speaker 23 There's six years, $90 million contract right here. And what I want for you to do is empty the bucket for the Dallas Cowboys.
And I need for you to

Speaker 23 eat the chains and keep the chains going first, second, third, and fourth down. I need you on all this.
I'm going to put everything on your back.

Speaker 23 Are you ready to empty the bucket for a Dallas Cowboys?

Speaker 6 Wait, I'm in Cabo. Hang on.
I'm landing right now.

Speaker 14 Okay. Stick your gut out.
He's probably out of shape. Okay.
But

Speaker 6 I'm going to empty my bucket, and then I'm going to climb into the Salvation Army bucket afterwards.

Speaker 19 All right, so Jerry Jones, very good negotiator.

Speaker 6 How many contracts did you negotiate with Jerry?

Speaker 10 Three.

Speaker 14 Three. Yep.

Speaker 40 Did you always feel like he was not had the upper hand, but he's obviously a smooth guy.

Speaker 14 Yeah.

Speaker 21 And it feels like, especially with the Cowboys recently have been in the news because they've had to sign everyone.

Speaker 35 They got a lot of young talent.

Speaker 5 This is the problem with drafting well.

Speaker 10 This is why I always say don't draft well.

Speaker 14 You never have to pay anyone.

Speaker 2 But

Speaker 5 would you feel like Jerry Jones aura when you're negotiating with him?

Speaker 23 There is an aura. And everybody asked me about the story of when I went in Jerry Jones' office.
And imagine like if the lights were dim. And there's a candle right here.
There's a candle right here.

Speaker 23 And he's talking to me. So it's dim like that.

Speaker 14 Oh, we got it.

Speaker 14 Put some jazz on.

Speaker 23 right? And so he says,

Speaker 23 you know, we've ran through all of the contract constituencies, and we've ran the numbers, and we're probably about a couple million dollars off. And

Speaker 23 what I want for you to do is

Speaker 23 there are six years on this contract, and there's $90 million on here.

Speaker 23 Can you empty the bucket for the Dallas Cowboys?

Speaker 50 He just keeps having you empty the bucket.

Speaker 23 And that's exactly. That's his word.

Speaker 23 I mean, that's his word. And you're going to say, Yes, the lights go up, the light just turn up, my bucket's totally empty

Speaker 23 and you sign the paper here, yeah, yeah, and then all the media goes crazy, yeah, yeah, and then you feel like you got a great deal.

Speaker 14 Yeah, you feel like you got a great deal.

Speaker 6 I also always feel like Jerry likes to do these contracts when there's going to be media attention on it, so like you'll never hear of Jerry

Speaker 6 putting a contract out like the Friday before Labor Day or something like that. That's not how he operates, he likes to make a little bit of a splash.

Speaker 6 Uh, when you were doing your, you actually signed a one-day contract, yes, which you're now.

Speaker 6 Did was there any negotiation that, or were you just like, hey, Jerry, I want to empty the bucket one last time?

Speaker 23 No, it was like, hey, Jerry, so there was this $1

Speaker 23 that Jerry Jones and Bill Parcells

Speaker 23 had.

Speaker 23 Like, okay, well, if DeMarcus doesn't get, you know, many, whatever, nine sacks a year, his first three years,

Speaker 23 you know, your pick was a bust because Jerry Jones picked me.

Speaker 23 Parcells didn't want me.

Speaker 14 That's right. He wanted Marcus Jones.
And it was $1.

Speaker 23 So for me, I said, well, you remember that $1

Speaker 23 that you owe me? Can you put that in my contract? You know, he sits right there and tells me?

Speaker 14 No.

Speaker 14 I'm like, what the heck, man? Put the dollar in the contract.

Speaker 14 He didn't give me a dollar.

Speaker 6 So he did the exact bet from Trading Places

Speaker 6 just with Bill Parcels about you and Marcus Pierce.

Speaker 23 But I actually panned out.

Speaker 14 I panned out with you. So did Marcus, too.

Speaker 6 We can help you out here a little bit, get some publicity going for Snickers. So we're going to do a headline grab.
You ready? That's how you get a headline in the business.

Speaker 23 You talk about somebody else in the hall of fame do you think that donovan mcnabb should be a hall of famer i think that uh donovan mcnab should be a hall of famer i mean going against him every single year man he found out it's almost like he was by himself right he had westbrook at the time when i played against him but he found ways to run the ball found ways to throw to get the ball down the field i think he had the sean jackson at the time crushing it i i think that he is a hall of fame what about tony romo tony romo yeah i think tony romo Do you think so?

Speaker 23 With no championships, I feel like Tony Romo was a guy. The length span, though,

Speaker 14 if he had

Speaker 47 one championship, he'll be in Hall of Fame.

Speaker 14 Yeah, I probably agree with that.

Speaker 21 I had, so real quick, just one last thing on the contract stuff, because I have a theory, and you can tell me if this is wildly off.

Speaker 50 But when Jerry Jones negotiates with someone, he puts a value on being a Dallas Cowboy, being a

Speaker 14 attack out to the Jazzwars versus attacking the Dallas Cowboys.

Speaker 26 But now, from a player's perspective, do you buy that?

Speaker 2 Do you actually see what Jerry Jones is saying when he tells you?

Speaker 23 At first, you buy that because you're so engulfed in it. So let's say if you're playing for like five years, you're like, oh, man, yeah, I've gotten a lot more appearances.
I feel really, really good.

Speaker 23 But then once the contract comes, you see that it's more cut throat.

Speaker 14 Right. And you're like, no, no, no.

Speaker 14 It's not that good of a dad.

Speaker 23 Let's not worry about the star anymore. Let's worry about this contract and what it actually means for the next two, three, four years going down the road.

Speaker 6 When it comes to zero is worth way more than a star, just to point on there at the end.

Speaker 14 So

Speaker 14 add one.

Speaker 6 Yeah, all right, yeah, exactly. So how do you think about the order that they're going in? Because I actually, I'll give Jerry credit.
I've been saying that Zeke is a very important piece.

Speaker 6 I think he's the most important between him, Dak, and then Amari.

Speaker 6 But I think that they've actually done it smart and they've locked up a lot of their interior players before they got around to paying these guys.

Speaker 6 Whereas, like, if you just load up on your top three guys at the star positions or whatever you want to call it, your team ends up suffering in the long run.

Speaker 6 Do you agree with the kind of the way that they've been going about building it in terms of like the order, the sequence?

Speaker 23 It's like, okay, well, if I have $100 million, all right, first of all.

Speaker 14 Can I have some? Yeah, you can. Please.

Speaker 23 A little bit. The guy gave you some too.
It's a chain. Money like that.
The Snickers chain. Okay.
Yes.

Speaker 23 So I would give it to the guys that, like you said, solidified interior guys first because they're going to be more important. You chomp a little bit off of it.

Speaker 23 And so now the guys are like, man, there's not a lot of money, but I still want to play for them. And then you go do a couple of extra other guys.
And now let's say there's $50 million left.

Speaker 23 There was $100.

Speaker 23 Now I can't take as much as I used to. So it's like a mind game.

Speaker 23 And then you have no choice

Speaker 23 but to like sign, or you say, okay, well, then I still got two years on my deal. What am I going to do?

Speaker 23 There's a CBA that's collective bargaining agreement. It might be a lockout next year.
So I might not have any money.

Speaker 14 So what am I going to do?

Speaker 23 So it's like a tactic to it. Yeah.
Yeah.

Speaker 54 Absolutely. I got another headline grab for you.
Continue what you were saying when we were walking down the hallway, how you thought Andrew Luck was soft.

Speaker 23 See, I did not say that.

Speaker 23 You said that.

Speaker 23 And I know the Snickers chocolate is actually really soft on here, and it's delicious because that's why we're actually giving it, first of all, I love Snickers.

Speaker 14 Yeah, love them.

Speaker 23 But we're actually, you know, rewarding the hungriest player.

Speaker 14 Okay.

Speaker 23 You know what I mean? For what we got. You're dripping right now.

Speaker 14 Andrew Luck not very hungry.

Speaker 23 I don't know if he likes Snickers or not, but

Speaker 14 in seriousness,

Speaker 54 the

Speaker 26 NFL and the fans perspective, I think, has changed.

Speaker 10 I think people are more pro player than they ever have been.

Speaker 26 When you saw that, when you saw Andrew Luck retire, what did you immediately think?

Speaker 14 That

Speaker 23 he doesn't want to play anymore because his body is so beat up.

Speaker 23 Because I got to a point in my career, my 12th year, to where I said, I can't do it no more.

Speaker 14 Like mentally, I was all in.

Speaker 23 like I got this I'm ready to compete but then I get out there I'm like man my body's not performing like it used to like I'm I can't even hardly walk right I'm like how how long do you actually want to do this

Speaker 23 and so now you retire and you're like man I feel actually feel better like now I feel so much better just doing what I'm doing now compared to now out there competing and not performing like you should do you have any lasting injuries that have kind of like hobbled you since these there's anything that yeah I've had three back injuries I had

Speaker 14 back surgery but does it still hurt like do you wake up every day and you're like i don't feel 100 every day really probably about 94 94 94

Speaker 23 yeah it could be a random number

Speaker 6 somewhere what about your shoulder is your shoulder all right yeah i had uh two shoulder surgeries right and left broken arm uh elbow surgery ankle you name it i figure the shoulder is the one that if you're a quarterback that's going to be a big one always a big one and not a big one not just physically but mentally not thinking that you have the the same arm strength that you used to so you start changing everything else about your throwing motion, and it messes you up more mentally on the inside after that.

Speaker 23 The thing is, it's all about accuracy when you're a quarterback, too. And when you now, your gun is now not like it used to be, then you have problems.

Speaker 23 Yeah, you're like, okay, well, then I'm not a running quarterback, I'm actually a passing quarterback, and I don't have what I used to get away with. Right, which is that throwing on.

Speaker 6 Did he ever compliment you after you give him a sack?

Speaker 14 Every time, yeah. Hey, good, good hit, bud.

Speaker 14 What

Speaker 14 I'm even more mad, yeah, Because

Speaker 23 he pissed me off.

Speaker 44 Yeah, well, given what's happened, do you think you'd like to take that compliment back?

Speaker 45 Because you had a part in him retiring early.

Speaker 14 Would you like to,

Speaker 23 I am a gladiator

Speaker 23 in the dome.

Speaker 23 And when the lights turn on, the gladiator wakes up and he has to go to war. So it doesn't matter.
Everybody is my enemy except for my own teammates.

Speaker 35 Do you dream about football?

Speaker 23 No.

Speaker 14 No, not at all. I don't dream at all.
At all.

Speaker 23 I already lived a dream.

Speaker 14 Okay. If you look back.

Speaker 6 You got one moment that you think of as like the pinnacle of your career. Is it the Super Bowl?

Speaker 23 I would say the height of my career is the Super Bowl winning. Because, you know, that's what every player wants to get to.
But then it was one year, like 2009, when I almost broke my neck.

Speaker 23 And I signed a big contract that year. And like four games later, I almost broke my neck.
I laid there paralyzed on the ground. And then like seven days later, I went out there and played.

Speaker 23 Why, I don't know, but I just wanted to go out there and compete, win the game. And I think we made the playoffs that year.

Speaker 23 And that was like that point where, like, you, it's always mind over matter with me. But that was, that was that, the other point.

Speaker 37 Those are always crazy, like the stories about guys coming.

Speaker 44 I mean, we've had Mark Schlerth on a bunch and him saying he had like a kidney stone the morning of a game and like, you know, passing out in pain and then going out and playing.

Speaker 14 Right.

Speaker 6 Looking back at that particular example, are you, do you get nervous at all just thinking about what you did? Do you regret it at all? Are you like, you know what? It happened for a reason.

Speaker 6 It worked out well for me? Or is there like a little bit of second guessing? Like, man, that was dumb.

Speaker 23 Nah, like, I don't second guess none of my decisions because when I make it, I'm full-blown, I'm full-bore if I'm wrong or not.

Speaker 23 So, and I feel like no one should ever live their life that way. Like, oh, dude, am I going to regret this decision? Oh, make a decision, live with it, and go to it.

Speaker 6 I guess regret's probably the wrong word.

Speaker 6 Does it even like scare you a little bit thinking about what you did, the risk that you put yourself in?

Speaker 14 Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. For my family, yeah, like for my family.

Speaker 23 I didn't have to go back out there and play anymore because I almost broke my neck. Yeah.
But then I'm like, all right, well, you got that warrior mentality. Everybody supported you through it.

Speaker 23 But then you're like, that was like a little dumb going out there and doing it.

Speaker 6 What about these other two career highlights? I just picked these at random here. Monday night, 2005, fourth quarter against the Redskins.
You're up 13-0.

Speaker 6 That was a pretty good memory, probably, right?

Speaker 23 I mean, it depends on who's that quarterback.

Speaker 6 Mark Brunel.

Speaker 14 Mike Brunel

Speaker 23 sacked him probably about four times.

Speaker 6 Yeah, and then what happened at the end, though?

Speaker 23 Did we lose?

Speaker 6 Yeah, Santana Moss.

Speaker 42 Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 14 Right at the end of the day, last two minutes.

Speaker 23 He wants to rub it in, doesn't he?

Speaker 14 Yeah, but I feel like the Cowboys always beat the Redskins, but that's not really rub it in.

Speaker 6 Yeah, this is my one opportunity. Oh, yeah, here's another random one I'm going to pick out of thin air.

Speaker 6 Thanksgiving 2012 at home, Robert Griffin. Was that one of the highlights of your career?

Speaker 23 Oh, when I blew him up.

Speaker 14 Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 14 Oh, yeah.

Speaker 6 He actually seems like he would be a very fun quarterback.

Speaker 23 No, he's hard. I mean, he was a hard guy to take down.
I mean, he ran like, what, 4-2?

Speaker 14 4-3?

Speaker 23 He was so fast, ridiculously fast. So you got there.
You first got to go through a big offensive tackle that they had and to get to him. But then, you know, it's like a rabbit in a hay patch.

Speaker 23 You know, it's like, you got to figure out how to get to him. Right.

Speaker 6 Do you think that we overrate Tony Romo?

Speaker 54 Like, people are a little crazy.

Speaker 14 Like, he's okay.

Speaker 45 He's not that good as an analyst, right?

Speaker 23 I think that he's really good.

Speaker 14 Ah, come on.

Speaker 23 I think Romo is really good because he doesn't care. Yeah.
He actually doesn't care, and he's living out of the box.

Speaker 23 Like, I want, like, like you guys are doing, living out of the box, asking all kinds of crazy questions, making it fun.

Speaker 23 You don't have to be like, so, guys, we're going to, this is what we're going to do.

Speaker 14 No,

Speaker 42 be real. Like,

Speaker 42 you did, you did Dude Perfect.

Speaker 38 What's it like being a douchebag?

Speaker 14 I don't know about the douchebags, but I mean, the Dude Perfect stuff was cool.

Speaker 14 They're good people. We will rival you with them.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 14 Y'all rival with it? We do. We have a rival company called Bro Suite where we do awesome tricks.

Speaker 6 It's a rivalry like the Redskins, Cowboys. We just dominate the bus.

Speaker 14 So who does the best tricks? We do. Come on now.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, Bro, that's what he was trying to do. Bro Sweet.
Bro Sweet.

Speaker 6 That's what he was trying to do. Watch this.
Here we go. Catch this.

Speaker 23 Catch.

Speaker 14 Oh, Bro Sweet.

Speaker 42 Bro, Bro Suite. Snickers.

Speaker 14 There we go. Incomplete.
Incomplete.

Speaker 14 That's irony.

Speaker 6 The Snickers bar was doing irony.

Speaker 40 Do you still keep in touch with Peyton Manning or John Elway at all?

Speaker 23 Yeah, yeah. I mean, John Elway is a great owner.
I think he came up here a couple of days ago with CBS. They were saying

Speaker 23 and get invited to all the games to help out with the team. And with Peyton, we talk all the time.

Speaker 14 Yeah. I mean, he's a great dude, man.
Yeah. Good.

Speaker 5 Yeah, I mean, what was it like watching him the last year when you guys, I mean, that defense was unbelievable, your Super Bowl season.

Speaker 54 When you're watching Peyton, a guy, we were talking about Andrew Luck, a guy who physically maybe isn't 100%, but he's mentally trying to do it.

Speaker 26 Did you see it week to week? You're like, he just, he doesn't have the same stuff.

Speaker 14 He's just trying to get through every single week.

Speaker 23 Yeah, I think he was like the epitome of what a champion was. Like, you might not have the throwing arm.
You might not be able to run like you used to.

Speaker 23 But when I see him in a treatment room, 6 o'clock in the morning and then treating for six days, just go out there for

Speaker 23 a whole game and then not lose the game, not throw a lot of interceptions, just maintain the game and then let the defense go out there and play.

Speaker 23 That was like really cool to see because when I first got there, we're scoring 45 points a game, balling out. And then we don't make it into the postseason.

Speaker 23 And then the season that we won the Super Bowl, he wasn't at his best, but mentally, he was the most focused.

Speaker 23 And he used what he had around him to win football games. It was crazy to see.

Speaker 6 Yeah, watching him put that last season together, and the defense was incredible.

Speaker 6 The way that you guys played against the Panthers in the Super Bowl, Cam Newton, his favorite, you know, his famous business decision he made not jumping on that loose ball.

Speaker 6 At what point during the game did you know that you had Cam Newton scared?

Speaker 23 At the beginning of the game. Like, right at the beginning of the game, as a defense, we knew that we were going to win the game.
We weren't going to lose the game on defense.

Speaker 23 We were so pissed because the only thing we heard about was the Carolina Panthers the whole week, how great they were, but nothing about

Speaker 23 we were the number one defense in the NFL, how we were going to get ran over.

Speaker 23 So, we were so prepared and so ready that game that we were like, well, I know we're going to pumble over their offense offensively.

Speaker 23 And Peyton comes to me, and actually, the whole defense, right in the locker room before the game, game, and he says, Hey, you guys are going to win this game. That coming from Peyton is big.

Speaker 23 He said, You guys are going to win this game.

Speaker 23 But one thing we're not going to do on offense, we're not going to lose it. You get me close, we're going to score points, and you guys just have it at.
We'll make sure you guys are rested.

Speaker 14 And I'm like, Peyton Manley, Peyton Manley putting it on us, right?

Speaker 23 You know, and I'm like, cool, yeah.

Speaker 14 Let's do it.

Speaker 23 That's what I wanted to hear. Yeah, you too.
That's what I wanted to hear.

Speaker 34 All right, I have one last question.

Speaker 10 We're with DeMarcus Ware, future Hall of Famer Demarcus Ware.

Speaker 5 He's here with Snickers. Check out the Snickers.

Speaker 14 What is this actually?

Speaker 45 What are we calling this?

Speaker 21 Just the.

Speaker 23 Did we call that the drip chain? The drip chain? Yeah, this is the drip chain.

Speaker 14 They're going to be honest.

Speaker 6 Akib Talib is just going to steal that every week from whoever went there.

Speaker 14 Don't let Crabtree get this. Hey, listen.

Speaker 23 Somebody's going to have to get that every single week because they're going to be traveling around the league.

Speaker 23 And it's going to be security. I think we're going to hire you guys, security.
I'm in.

Speaker 3 The chain of command.

Speaker 14 I'm taking it off. I'm never letting it off.

Speaker 6 All right. So my last question is: Jason Witten, how's he going to be this year?

Speaker 23 Consistent. I think consistently what he needs to be, first of all, a consistent leader, but then being able to move the chains.

Speaker 23 He's going to be not a deep threat, but a move-the-chain guy, you know, for the Dallas Cowboys. And I feel like they can win a championship this year, man.

Speaker 14 Okay.

Speaker 23 I feel like they can do it, but it's all about how they start off right now.

Speaker 23 They got a lot of NFC East games coming up early.

Speaker 23 The Giants, Washington, right? They got a lot of NFC.

Speaker 32 You want to guarantee it?

Speaker 14 Guarantee what? The Super Bowl for the Cowboys.

Speaker 23 Guarantee a Super Bowl.

Speaker 14 I don't guarantee anything. Just do it.
I don't guarantee anything. Guarantee.
Yeah, I don't guarantee anything.

Speaker 2 You're right. You're actually right.

Speaker 14 I guarantee as well. I'm going to jump on your guard.

Speaker 23 I guarantee that you're going to be the first person to wear that chain.

Speaker 23 And I guarantee that someone the first week of the season is going to be appreciating that change.

Speaker 6 Yes, it is a nice change. I have one last question, too.
So, Jajavion Clowney, I actually think that his game kind of resembles yours in terms of like you both being freak athletes.

Speaker 6 I know you were a sprinter back in high school. He ran like a four, was it four or five, four, six, something like that?

Speaker 6 He just moved to a new team, the Seahawks.

Speaker 6 He doesn't really have that much time to get caught up with the defensive playbook, but for a guy like him, whose job can be just go get the quarterback, is there any sort of adjustment time or is there anything that he's missing out on by not having those reps with the guys?

Speaker 23 I think one thing he's you know, he's left out on is like that team camaraderie. You know, when you go to OTAs, you figure out like what guy rushes better with you,

Speaker 23 the training camp, the mini camps,

Speaker 6 where you fit. Towel fights.

Speaker 14 Yeah, everything.

Speaker 23 Yeah, like where you actually fit in the defense.

Speaker 23 A rusher is going to be a rusher. You can just put them down there, and they're going to rush.
But, okay, who am I rushing with? How fast is this guy getting off the ball?

Speaker 23 Like, what type of games are we going to run? How are they going to attack me? Like, all those things, he's not going to know. So, they're going to put him down there.

Speaker 23 I don't know, maybe sparingly, maybe third down, so he can start figuring things out and then go from there.

Speaker 14 Okay, awesome.

Speaker 10 Well, future Hall of Famer, Demarcus Ware, check out Snickers.

Speaker 14 I mean, everyone loves Snickers. I don't, yeah, people want to check it out.

Speaker 14 Hank.

Speaker 41 I got a bunch of fire fests. Oh yeah.

Speaker 14 Oh yeah?

Speaker 6 Dude, sounds like you have a bunch of people. Hot mic.

Speaker 41 Let it ride. My first one was that Antonio Brown was, I drafted my fantasy league.

Speaker 27 Oh, no one cares. Okay.

Speaker 41 My other one is that I started a fantasy football podcast, and then we had to do fantasy fuckboys.

Speaker 37 Yep, no one cares.

Speaker 41 And then also,

Speaker 41 I had Aaron Rodgers. He really had no points tonight for my other.

Speaker 14 That's it.

Speaker 14 So, plug the pod.

Speaker 14 No, that's it. No, I just want to pick up the podcast.

Speaker 14 Plug the pod.

Speaker 14 No, I'm just looking for things.

Speaker 41 Demanding you. No, I'm just saying.

Speaker 14 Plug the pod.

Speaker 41 I've been going through my week, and it's just like those little things.

Speaker 14 Fantasy football powerhouse.

Speaker 6 Fantasy football. Fuckboys.

Speaker 14 Fantasy football factory.

Speaker 8 There you go. There's the plug.

Speaker 37 Just to go download it.

Speaker 32 PFT and I have a team.

Speaker 25 Spencer Hawes, friend of the program, actually sat in for PFT, and I looked so small next to Spencer Hawes, and I realized, like, that's probably what you look like next to me.

Speaker 6 That sucks. No, that's not quite exactly.
Now Grumpy Big Cat's back. My Fire Fest of the Week is dealing with Grumpy Big Cat

Speaker 6 because his team lost a game and they didn't look

Speaker 20 doing it.

Speaker 14 Not going to lie.

Speaker 6 And then he lashes lashes out, and that's okay.

Speaker 14 No, I'm not lashing out.

Speaker 6 But the important thing about doing a podcast with people that you trust is you know that you're going to get over these rough patches. And I know that it's not about me.
It's just weak.

Speaker 6 I know that when you say mean things to me like...

Speaker 6 Don't make Kyle Sloater happen. It's not because you actually think it's bad.
It's because you're just dealing with your own personal issues.

Speaker 15 No, no, no.

Speaker 6 There's a fetch joke. And we're just moving forward as a team from this.
And we're going to build together. And adversity makes us stronger.
So it's a fire fest right now, but guess what?

Speaker 6 Today's fire fest is tomorrow's blessing.

Speaker 41 It was me.

Speaker 41 It was like, usually we're watching these games together, and me and Bubba, like before you guys came back, were like, you know, like shaking, like, we were two kids in our room, like, waiting for dad to come home.

Speaker 14 Like, oh, shit, like, hopefully he's off the belt. Yeah, like, hopefully, hopefully, he doesn't have rings on.

Speaker 6 Comes home smelling like again.

Speaker 5 Yeah. All right.
My fire fest is.

Speaker 6 I'm going to wake up tomorrow with just a black eye and I'll be like, it's fine. I fell down.

Speaker 26 I fell into a doorknob.

Speaker 35 My fire fest is,

Speaker 37 I thought Aaron Rodgers was over the hill.

Speaker 14 Well, he's not.

Speaker 6 Well, according to Hank's fantasy projection, he kind of is.

Speaker 14 Yeah, that's true. I thought he was over the hill.

Speaker 41 Definitely not fourth round.

Speaker 36 I thought he and Matt LaFleur hated each other.

Speaker 14 And I thought that wasn't going to work.

Speaker 6 If you saw him after the game, what did he do? He went up to Petton first and shoved him and was like, get out of the way because LaFleur is in charge of this defense right now. Let this guy cook.

Speaker 14 Fuck. All right.

Speaker 26 Thoughts and prayers? Jeremy Renner's app. So explain this to me, PFT.
Jeremy Renner had an app?

Speaker 6 Jeremy Renner had an app, and it was called, I think, the Jeremy Renner app. Okay.

Speaker 6 And basically, he invented his own Facebook for himself where Jeremy Renner fans could meet and discuss Jeremy Renner and then you could buy upgrades. It was freemium.
So you could buy upgrades on it.

Speaker 6 And what did those upgrades give you? Stars that you could award to people that you thought made good Jeremy Renner comments underneath Jeremy Renner's posts.

Speaker 6 So it cost money to essentially like all the posts.

Speaker 6 The problem was it was overrun with trolls almost immediately, people that were just pretending to be other people and celebrities because there was no verification process.

Speaker 6 So if you look underneath any of his comments, it's all like there was one from I think Natalie Holloway underneath there.

Speaker 6 There were just like all sorts of weird celebrities, and Jeremy Reynard just shut it down. He decided that the juice is not worth the squeeze.

Speaker 2 So, we ruined it.

Speaker 26 The internet ruined a fun idea. Jeremy Reynard

Speaker 49 trying to talk to his fans.

Speaker 42 What I love when celebrities don't realize what the internet is right now.

Speaker 25 They're like, hey, I'm going to go on.

Speaker 26 I'm going to chat with my friends and my fans, and it's going to be so great, and everyone can connect with me.

Speaker 37 Dude, it's a troll.

Speaker 6 myself out there yeah we have bots and trolls and that's it well here's the thing if what if Antonio Brown had just posted that picture of his fine on the Jeremy Renner app that would have been then it probably would not have gotten back to Mike Mayock about it and probably wouldn't have gotten punched in the face that we didn't see Mike Mayock definitely is on the Jeremy Renner app just letting off steam he's this Antonio Brown guy anyone thinks he's a dick yeah he's definitely on there for sure I actually think that if you're a celebrity, this is so tragic that it got shut down because if you wanted to just let off some steam, the perfect place to do it would be on the Jeremy Renner app under your real name because no one, everyone would just think it was a fake celebrity, right?

Speaker 6 Because that's always like Larry the cable guy could go on there and just like go off on immigration and shit. And people would be like, oh, that's a very funny tool.

Speaker 14 Larry the cable guy.

Speaker 26 I use spot on.

Speaker 14 Right. Okay.

Speaker 9 So, Jeremy Renner's thoughts and prayers to your app.

Speaker 44 I just can't believe that anyone.

Speaker 26 I would love to have sat in that meeting when Jeremy, you know what it is?

Speaker 36 When all these things happen, I just assume it's someone in Jeremy Renner's circle who's like, shit, I haven't been doing a lot recently.

Speaker 14 Like,

Speaker 24 JR is starting to figure it out.

Speaker 26 Like, we're not making another hurt locker anytime soon.

Speaker 46 So, we need big ideas.

Speaker 29 We need to have something real quick to make me look busy.

Speaker 25 Oh, I know.

Speaker 2 Let's do an app where there's no authentication and people can just troll each other.

Speaker 6 Why don't we make just a big cat troll app where every time your team loses a game, people can just Twitter missions?

Speaker 14 Yes. And that's my Twitter machine.

Speaker 6 Well, that's the lesson learned from this is anytime a celebrity wants to invent their own Twitter for themselves, it usually doesn't work out that well. Right.

Speaker 6 Like you're better off trying to, somebody should actually start an app that's called, what does Belichick call it? Snapface? There should be a Snapface or like an

Speaker 6 InstaChat. Is that his other one? Yeah.
How come these apps don't already exist?

Speaker 10 By the way, reminder, Jake, Bill Belichick, Football Guy of the Week nominee.

Speaker 14 That quote.

Speaker 6 I like football and

Speaker 6 I like football season and everything that happens in football season.

Speaker 26 All-time quote. Drunk idea, PFT.

Speaker 6 Yeah, I had a drunk idea that I came up with the other day because

Speaker 6 I was walking and I was.

Speaker 14 What's up?

Speaker 24 We don't.

Speaker 6 Shame. Yeah, I was down in Austin.
For my work, I had to drink six and a half beers in an hour. So

Speaker 6 I was approached by a Jehovah's Witness, and I was wondering, like, there's that old trope about, like, you know, they knock on your door.

Speaker 6 I don't know if they still do door knocks anymore, but nobody wants to open the door for them if they just had a pizza in their hand. You always open the door if somebody's holding a pizza.

Speaker 6 Why don't the Jehovah's Witnesses, instead of holding that the little pamphlet that they always hand out, the watchtower, why don't they just have a pizza box that says watchtower on it?

Speaker 6 And they open it up, you have a pizza, boom, conversation.

Speaker 14 Is there a pizza in there?

Speaker 6 Yeah, there's an actual pizza in there.

Speaker 2 But what happens after, so how many pizzas do you think they're going to have to give away?

Speaker 14 I like this.

Speaker 6 Well, how many people do they say get 120,000, I think, is how many people get into heaven.

Speaker 14 Or, how about this?

Speaker 35 They just do, like, if you're a Jehovah's Witness, free pizza for life.

Speaker 8 Ooh, I like that too. Just go one up.

Speaker 2 So it's like, that's the intro, is the pizza at the door.

Speaker 35 Uh-huh.

Speaker 2 But part of the pitch is, hey, you like this pizza?

Speaker 9 How about pizza all the time?

Speaker 6 Except not on your birthday, because that would count as a celebration. So you have to fast for that one day.
Well, no.

Speaker 2 If you eat pizza every day, not eating pizza would make your birthday out of the norms.

Speaker 6 That would have to be pizza.

Speaker 14 Okay, you have to eat more pizza for your birthday. Yeah.
God, John.

Speaker 24 Barstow Gold, PMT, we should get Jehovah's Witnesses.

Speaker 6 We should absolutely

Speaker 26 and offer them pizza.

Speaker 6 And the Williams sisters, they're Jehovah's Witnesses. We should just have them on.

Speaker 14 Let's get Jehovah in here.

Speaker 24 Is Jehovah still alive?

Speaker 14 Gotta be.

Speaker 19 What's the difference between Jehovah's Witnesses and Mormons? They both go to doors, right?

Speaker 6 They both love doors.

Speaker 14 Yeah, that's it.

Speaker 26 So that's the Venn diagram.

Speaker 6 And they wear

Speaker 10 tie. Door-loving religion.

Speaker 6 Yes, absolutely.

Speaker 4 Okay.

Speaker 32 Let's finish up with FAQs.

Speaker 14 All right.

Speaker 41 In 15 of the past 16 seasons, the team has gone from worst to first in in their division.

Speaker 41 Barring that it happens again this year, which team do you like out of the last-placed teams from last year? Bengals, Jaguars, Lions, Raiders, Jets, Bucks, Cardinals, Giants?

Speaker 11 All right, hold on.

Speaker 6 Jets, Bucks, Cardinals, Cardinals, Giants, Lions, Raiders, Bengals, Jaguars.

Speaker 6 Jaguars. Jaguars, yeah.

Speaker 2 Jaguars. Because that division is like Andrew Luck's gone.

Speaker 11 That's Twy Kelly.

Speaker 26 I don't know what the Titans' offense is going to be.

Speaker 14 Yeah, I love Mike Ribbon. I don't know what the offense is going to be.

Speaker 6 But they're not busting busting with the boys because Taylor LeWin's out for the first couple games. The bus hit a little bit of a speed bump.

Speaker 2 And then Deshaun Watson is going to get injured at some point.

Speaker 6 Like he always does. Yeah, I think it's got to be the Jaguars.

Speaker 24 Jaguars, and my second pick would be same again, real quick.

Speaker 41 Bengals, Jaguars, Lions, Raiders, Jets, Bucs, Cardinals, Giants.

Speaker 14 Jets. But they're not going to be.

Speaker 14 I do think the Jets are going to be good.

Speaker 6 I do too. I think the Jets are going to be good.
They're going to be good. Giants.
They're going to trade Daniel.

Speaker 6 They're going to trade Daniel Jones and then get a receiver from the Colts. How about they? T.Y.
Hilton from the Colts rebuild around Eli.

Speaker 6 Eli takes advantage of this, and he signs a four-year extension.

Speaker 24 And they pick up Antonio Brown.

Speaker 14 Perfect.

Speaker 6 Perfect. He sounds like a Gettelman guy.
Yes. David Gettelman would murder, like, literally, he would poison Antonio Brown's mustache die.

Speaker 26 That's a good question.

Speaker 41 Here's another one that's kind of related. Can you name a team who's got a quarterback worse than Andy Dalton that didn't make a move to get a better quarterback this offseason?

Speaker 6 Andy Dalton's got a job for life.

Speaker 46 Andy Dalton does have a job for life.

Speaker 26 I'm not a believer in Jameis Winston.

Speaker 44 I'm not a believer in Marcus Mariota.

Speaker 27 Let's see.

Speaker 6 I'm not a believer in Jimmy Garoppolo. I think he needs to get back to fucking porn stars.
Does it count?

Speaker 41 But is he worse than Andy Dalton at this current stage?

Speaker 6 Yes. Because he's never made a tackle in a playoff game.

Speaker 14 Hmm.

Speaker 26 Does it count?

Speaker 25 Well, no, Eli.

Speaker 44 Well, I guess they drafted Andrew Jones, so that counts as a move.

Speaker 24 Does it count that the Broncos got Joe Flacco?

Speaker 14 Yeah.

Speaker 26 Yeah, that's like that's no, but that's a downgrade from Trevor Simeon.

Speaker 14 Don't.

Speaker 6 Don't. They didn't make a move to get a better QB.

Speaker 26 Yeah, so that does count. Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 25 The Broncos.

Speaker 35 But then they did draft Drew Locke, who I think is better than Trevor Simeon and Joe Flacco.

Speaker 41 And you can't, you know, the value of a Super Bowl MVP. Like, you can't

Speaker 6 buy that.

Speaker 41 You can't put a price on that.

Speaker 26 That's true.

Speaker 27 You cannot put a price on that.

Speaker 6 Absolutely. He would have two rings if Lee Evanson dropped that pass.

Speaker 26 How many rings would he have if he was on the Steelers?

Speaker 6 On the Steelers?

Speaker 14 No, put it this way.

Speaker 6 If he was on the Chargers, he would have three rings.

Speaker 18 Still in all-time.

Speaker 6 And then Phillip Rivers would have been on, and he'd have six on the Steelers. I got it.

Speaker 6 What do we have? I still haven't heard an argument against it that makes sense to me.

Speaker 14 I would like to see

Speaker 41 you should dive into a world where Tom Brady doesn't exist and then just simulate those 15 years.

Speaker 6 Ooh, that's kind of a fun thought experiment. If Tom Brady doesn't exist, then we probably don't have a podcast.
True. Let's be honest.

Speaker 14 Yeah, Barcelona Sports doesn't exist.

Speaker 41 What do we as collective Vikings fans need to do for the Vikings curse from PFT to be lifted?

Speaker 6 Sounds like people are believing in it, big cat.

Speaker 26 I think you got to embrace it. Yeah.

Speaker 14 Wait, I never poo-pooed the Vikings curse.

Speaker 8 That was the rest of Twitter.

Speaker 30 Okay.

Speaker 26 Corrected you and was like, didn't get the joke.

Speaker 6 Oh, no, but you'd poo-pooed the Vikings curse because of Sloater just earlier in this thing.

Speaker 21 Well, he's not on the Vikings.

Speaker 14 Oh, yeah.

Speaker 14 That's where the curse is.

Speaker 6 Yeah, so what do they need to do to get rid of it? I'd say probably bring Blair Walsh back. That would work.
Because then it's the curse of Blair Walsh at that point, and it's not on Sloater anymore.

Speaker 6 No, I think you need to. It's still a curse, but it's just you shift it.

Speaker 2 I think you need to embrace it.

Speaker 24 I think you need to come go to Vikings games with

Speaker 26 we embrace the Kyle Sloater curse.

Speaker 6 Somebody needs to

Speaker 6 get the Kyle Sloater curse tattooed on their chest, but in reverse order. So

Speaker 6 it starts with an E.

Speaker 6 Stigmata.

Speaker 14 I don't know why. Memento.
Memento. Yeah.

Speaker 6 Just get it tattooed in reverse letters across your chest. What's stigmata?

Speaker 6 That's what Tim Tebow has when he cuts his handies out for the season. Got it.

Speaker 41 20-second, explain it to Hank. Stonks.

Speaker 18 Stonks. We don't know.

Speaker 6 Stonks, they're going up. You buy them, and they go up.

Speaker 24 And then you post the picture saying, stonks going up.

Speaker 41 Okay.

Speaker 41 Two more. Why do referees measure questionable first-down spots to the millimeter when all previous spots, including the current spot being measured, were guesses at best.

Speaker 41 Why are they measuring a series of guesses to the fraction of an inch when likely there's been dozens of inches of errors combined in each of those guesses?

Speaker 41 Obvious solution is to track the ball like in tennis or soccer or measure 10 yards from the first spot. And if the refs ever spotted past that initially determined 10 yards, it's a first down.

Speaker 41 No need to measure it.

Speaker 6 All right, Plato. Well,

Speaker 26 what was it?

Speaker 41 He's saying, like, why do they measure like close third downs or fourth downs to the inch when all the other, like, before the 10-yard marker, they're just guessing?

Speaker 6 I agree with you. Football games aren't long enough.

Speaker 6 They should bring the chains out for every single down.

Speaker 6 But if you really want to get philosophical with it, bro, because it sounds like you want to talk some philosophy, nobody can ever truly achieve a first down.

Speaker 6 Because in order to get 10 yards, you first have to go five yards. And then to get five yards, you have to go two and a half yards.
And so you will never actually make it all the way to a first down.

Speaker 2 There's nothing more thrilling than a first down that gets missed by

Speaker 44 the width of a card.

Speaker 6 Remember when was it Gene's territory that just had an index card in his pocket?

Speaker 17 It's unbelievable.

Speaker 6 You should just measure with Brett Favre's dick.

Speaker 41 Last one.

Speaker 6 Would you rather mean.

Speaker 31 No,

Speaker 26 well, I mean, as a huge Packer fan wearing an owner hat, you'd think that you would respect your legend.

Speaker 6 Well, no, but then you left and went to our division rival, our hated rival.

Speaker 6 The New York Jets.

Speaker 14 And then reciprocity.

Speaker 14 What's that?

Speaker 41 Reciprocity.

Speaker 14 That's true. Good point, man.

Speaker 6 I can share. You got to respect that.

Speaker 41 Would you rather be last one? Would you rather be in jail for one year or be in jail until you could solve a Rubik's Cube?

Speaker 26 Oh my God, one year.

Speaker 14 Those things are...

Speaker 6 I don't think I'd ever solve it.

Speaker 6 I actually think that you're a witch if you can solve a Rubik's Cube behind your back. If you had done that back in the 1600s, you would be tied up to a stake immediately and I wouldn't stop them.

Speaker 26 How about the people who... You ever see them on the subway?

Speaker 24 I've seen dudes who just are sitting there in their commute.

Speaker 41 Like, I'm just going to crush this Rubik's Cube. That makes me think.

Speaker 41 Given like a year,

Speaker 41 100 days, 200 days of doing nothing but trying just fucking around.

Speaker 6 That's such a flex to just have a Rubik's Cube that you're solving on the subway. Think about it.

Speaker 41 We should get 365 days of nothing else.

Speaker 31 We should get a Rubik's Cube for our next live stream that we do for a game.

Speaker 6 How about we all just have to sit there while we're watching the game?

Speaker 14 Because it's like

Speaker 41 there's some type of just like

Speaker 14 twisty. But it's like it's one of those things that once you get it.

Speaker 26 Yeah, right.

Speaker 53 So you're not smart if you get it.

Speaker 24 Once you get it, you cease to be smart because you can just do it again.

Speaker 52 You're smart when you get it.

Speaker 6 Solving a puzzle is that way because you can reverse what you did. Hank, how long do you think it would take you? Because

Speaker 6 I almost want to make this a thing. Like if I gave you a Rubik's Cube.

Speaker 40 Yo, we should do this.

Speaker 6 And if you can solve it in under a month,

Speaker 6 we will

Speaker 6 listen to your podcast.

Speaker 41 Guests?

Speaker 14 We'll be...

Speaker 6 What do you mean?

Speaker 20 Would you be guests?

Speaker 6 I'll be a guest on your podcast.

Speaker 32 The one we executive produce? Yeah.

Speaker 6 Yeah. I will be a guest on two of your podcasts.

Speaker 41 Yeah, but it's like Mark Wahlberg. He was never really an entourage.

Speaker 21 Well, Well, we were in the opening scene.

Speaker 41 No, I know, but we didn't even get in the graphics.

Speaker 37 He made your account doesn't even follow me.

Speaker 41 I'm saying, like,

Speaker 6 the most alert person in the world.

Speaker 14 No, he probably

Speaker 14 doesn't follow me.

Speaker 2 He probably could have followed me. I just know he didn't two weeks ago.

Speaker 26 But I'm going to keep saying that.

Speaker 41 But that's the thing. With the internet, I definitely feel like I could.

Speaker 6 No, but this would be an honor system. You can't.
You can't hack the Rubik's Cube.

Speaker 6 Jake, get us three Rubik's Cubes for Sunday, and we will sit and watch the four o'clock games trying to solve Rubik's Cubes.

Speaker 14 We'll do it. We'll do it.

Speaker 6 Who wins, though? Because none of us are going to be able to solve it.

Speaker 20 I think the viewers lose.

Speaker 6 Everyone loses. Yeah, right.

Speaker 24 So it'll be a good time.

Speaker 6 That's actually, yeah, it's a pretty good bet.

Speaker 31 All right.

Speaker 37 Monday.

Speaker 6 I'm so excited.

Speaker 14 Totaga's Room.

Speaker 11 We're going to have week one.

Speaker 21 Yeah. We'll have the full recap.

Speaker 28 Yeah. We have some pretty guests coming up by the way.

Speaker 31 Yes, we do.

Speaker 35 Some Primo, Primo, like A-lister guests coming up.

Speaker 6 Hall of Famers.

Speaker 14 Hall of Famers. Yes, Hall of Famers.
Hall of Famers in multiple sports

Speaker 32 and entertainment and

Speaker 8 a lot of different things.

Speaker 6 Yeah. So we're giving you pure uncut shit.
Yeah. Straight up your nostril.
Love you guys.

Speaker 6 stay anyway.

Speaker 6 Today's on my day to follow you, shine.

Speaker 6 Oh, I'm coming for your love, okay.

Speaker 6 Oh, I'm coming for your love of K.

Speaker 6 Needless to say

Speaker 6 all of a sudden it's about me, somewhere in a way.

Speaker 6 Smelling the iPhone's out here, say unto me.

Speaker 6 I like some better tickets, save the time, to be safe, it's all to be safe, inside.

Speaker 6 I like some better to be safe, it's not even signed. Take

Speaker 6 on

Speaker 6 me,

Speaker 6 take up me, take

Speaker 6 me

Speaker 6 up.

Speaker 6 Take on me. I'll be

Speaker 6 your heart.

Speaker 6 Is it all I know? Just to lay my buries away.

Speaker 6 You're all the things I've got to remember. Be shy and away.

Speaker 6 I'll be coming for you anyway.

Speaker 6 on me, take

Speaker 6 me

Speaker 6 up,

Speaker 6 take on me,

Speaker 6 take

Speaker 6 me

Speaker 6 up,

Speaker 6 take on me.
