Ladies gentlemen, welcome in to the locker room NFL edition.
It is the divisional round of the playoffs.
We got the Bills at the Broncos.
One seed, Bow Nick, Sean Payton Broncos right there.
Texans, Patriots, Rams, Bears, 49ers, and the one seat in the NFC, the Seahawks.
Let's cruise on over here, have ourselves a nice little walk over to the standings.
Your boy, this past week is sitting on top at 4 and 2, catching up with the mule Delaney Walker.
Congratulations to Delaney Walker on that.
He went 3 in 3, a 500 game for him.
Will he see in dangerous territory right now?
He's got to show up in these last couple of weeks
if he wants to shout out the title.
If he wants to shout out the belt,
as old Bill Compton would say,
he's got to step it up a little bit.
And then Moneyline Matthews
might go bankrupt if he doesn't put business together
going into this next week.
He is dangerously close
to being mathematically eliminated
from being the crown jewel,
the champ.
A lot of guys when they're playing ball.
I can fucking do,
I see all this going on with the game.
I can do that because I know ball better.
everybody else. It's time to show up.
Let's have a hell of a show.
This is an I-Heart podcast.

Clay.
Yes, sir.
What happened?
There's a lot of shit with you, man.
Like you are, you, the ascension was crazy.
It was.
Meteoric.
Your flame was burning so bright.
Brighter than Icarus.
Yeah.
And then it's, we're on life support.
Yeah, we are.
It was a tough weekend for the boy.
You know, I was at, I was doing Secret Santa at my brother's house, got postponed.
There was, you know, some sicknesses and whatnot.
And it was 21 to 3.
My son comes up from downstairs.
And it was right before that McManus Field goal.
He missed it.
Oh, dad, they're cooked.
21, three.
This game's over.
I said, not so fast, son.
Went back home.
Shut your little last.
Say.
Give me a favor.
I told them in the nicest way possible.
I was like, no, not so fast.
It just, you know, and went home.
You threw a nice text out there saying this was the biggest lead the Packers have had since
in the playoffs since 2010.
Which I was a part of.
So that got me fired up.
I'll remind you.
Would you know that.
I plead with that.
Because one of us, one of us showed up in the playoffs and another team this year.
They ain't really show up.
So first off, don't let my one in five record distract you from a wonderful wild card weekend.
I mean, it was like the initial four, four games, it's a four score, it's four point game.
There's like 12 lead change.
It's just unbelievable.
What about the one in five?
Didn't you go one to five last week?
Yeah, like I said, don't get, you know, don't worry about that.
And let's just let's just, let's just address the elephant.
Let's just talk about my package here, okay.
in all seriousness, I was extremely disappointed in the Packers.
I mean, the first half, I was telling you will before the show, LaFleur was in his bag.
I mean, his play calling in the first half was unbelievable.
You know, whoever's running the bus and accounts talking about, oh, buddy shouldn't have picked the ball.
I go, no, watch Caleb on the sideline, takes his helmet off, he's screaming, you know,
because they can't get on the same page.
So it was all downhill for the Bears, but they come out, just come.
complacent, like some fat cats.
And specifically watching the defense, they look tired.
Would it never happen under Clayman.
No, it would not have happened.
I mean, and I see guys making business decisions.
You guys know what I'm talking about.
I don't like when former players come on and, you know, bash the team,
but making business decisions.
Guys getting tired chasing after Caleb.
All the momentum swung in the bear's favor.
And I was really disappointed because, you know,
I had my money on the Packers and they let me down.
We can't use injuries as an excuse.
Right, can't do it.
Can't do it.
There's two things you brought up in your nice little monologue there.
One, I think it's very big of you to not bring up that Will Compton after you went one in five
the last two weeks.
Will Compton's only one game in front of you in the standings.
That's big of you and that shows a lot of leadership.
I appreciate that.
The second thing that I wasn't a huge fan of was on that fork down, you're saying they shouldn't have picked the ball.
Absolutely not.
They should have picked the ball.
They should not have picked the ball.
That was a bad.
That's what analysts say.
That's what people who studied the game.
People who studied the game.
Dude, he cost them 30 yorkers.
And guess what they did.
Cost them 30 yards.
They went down and drove 80 yards and scored.
But you got to look at the psychological effect on Caleb.
He's pissed.
He won the game.
Hey, he's too young to understand, okay?
He's too young to understand that that was a bad moment for him.
Yeah.
But it was tough.
I hung low.
You know, it was a dark weekend.
Was your, you know, your friend President Trump helped to say, you know, mentions this and that and
I know what garage did you.
We actually got a back.
Oh my, do we have...
They said urgent on it that we had to open it now.
I'm not sure where it is.
So, just says, Jerry doesn't have a mic on.
Apparently, a package was delivered
to bust with the boys headquarters.
It says, it says extremely urgent.
Boys, it's from the White House.
Is it really?
From the White House.
That's crazy.
Should we open this?
Yeah.
I didn't think you would.
Another envelope.
Hey, it's from the president himself.
We should read it.
See what it says, right?
Yeah, let's see it.
It's from January 13th, 2020.
That was yesterday. It was overnighted.
That's his signature.
Okay.
All right.
Here's what it says.
You're going to read that?
It's my nightmare.
It says Clay, Moneyline Matthews, MLK.
He knows my alias is.
I wanted to see how you're doing after that devastating Packers loss.
It's very nice of him.
I didn't think there was another organization that could collapse worse than a Democratic
party. Oh, we're bringing politics into this. Come on. I thought this was a sports show. Come on,
47. But give credit where credit is due. The Bears had a good comeback. Not as great as my comeback
to the Oval Office, but still good. He wasn't underdog. This is a gambling show. So that was,
you know, he's got, he's got a point. He watches. He consumes. If only the Packers had you out there,
this is what I was saying. A strong and mighty winner to lead them to victory. The Packers' defense looked
tired and complacent. Reminds me a lot of your co-host, Will Compton, who spoke so brazenly of
burning your jersey. Right behind our great American flag, your jersey is the most sacred and
cherished symbol to Packers fans. Any desecration of the 52 jerseys will be considered an active
inciting violence, a punishable offense. Hey, Will, take notice, okay? Be careful. Yes, sir. Yes, sir.
I wish you continued good health and success. Most importantly, congratulations on helping with
M-T-L-R-G-A.
M-M- Make the locker room great again.
Oh, he's saying congratulations on helping make the locker room great again.
Delaney is a national treasure, one of the best handicappers, but he could only carry the show for so long.
This is wild.
Hey, viewership was like attendance at a Minnesota daycare, non-existent.
Oh, come on.
Oh, President, come on.
And it says, P.S., this photo of me would look great on set.
Regards President Trump.
Oh, how nice of them.
It's the president and bears still shock high.
Unbelievable.
Definitely not AI.
This is great.
This will look great on set.
Where should we put this?
Put it right here.
Put it right there.
Thank you, President.
Way to check in on your boy.
That's just, it's real nice.
nice you know it was tough but this right here and the call I had with Lynn Jones from the
Jacksonville Free Press on the way in here they're just bringing me up they're bringing me up so
I'm feeling good right now should we start the show no before we before we start the show he
actually sent me something as well he sent you something as well as the best handicapped as the president
oh oh oh oh my got on mic somebody can get somebody got to watch for quick somebody
Have Delaney out.
So hold on.
The president sent you a letter.
Yeah.
And the president also sent you a box.
Yes, he did.
As the best handicapper and wanting to check on the, you know, my mental well-being,
psychological, it only makes sense.
He told me.
Oh, you got two gifts.
Yeah, he told me.
Oh, you opened it already.
He said, love what you doing.
Love what Clay doing.
But I got a gift for everybody.
That game was great.
That's all he said.
That sounds like the president.
Got a gift for you.
Oh, no.
Got a gift for you.
Oh.
Gotta give for you.
That's treasonous.
Hey, to the White House.
Thank you.
Hey, President Trump, we're taking it too far.
You just get a close-up photo of his face.
Just go ahead and come in a frame.
I need to want to just Clay's face.
Yeah, he didn't want to tell me what he sent you.
No, he's a jokester.
He's a jokester.
You know, he's got lots of jokes and pranks, but.
Yeah, he is.
All right, well, thank you, 47, 45, 47.
Thank you, 47, 47, 45, 47.
Damn.
And I will say, though.
Both you guys got gifts from Donald Trump.
Yeah, man.
Hey, he's a fan.
And we kind of just took some shots.
Fan of the show.
You know, you get the wounded animal right now.
Yeah.
A lot of effort and hard work.
He's trying to lift his boy up a little bit.
He knows we're doing fun.
Yeah.
Yeah.
This show is brought to us by Jim Beam,
and the postseason upon us is upon us,
and there's really nothing like it,
but the postseason can be stressful.
Crushing losses, wild upsets.
unhitched six-game parlay falling apart the literal last second. Things can get rough and it can
leave you feeling a little bit sour. But you've got to look at the bright side. Once your team is out
and handed off to decompress, headed off to decompress, you can finally relax and now you can actually
enjoy the postseason without all the heart palpitations. That's where we're partnering with
Jim Beam. We want to help you turn that lemon of a loss into delicious, tasty Jim Beam and
lemonade. Because it's really the perfect bevy for the offseason. It's refreshing. It's got that
perfect sweetness, a little bit of tang on your tongue, and best paired with stress-free watching
when your team is out.
Together the boys grab some Jim Beam and Lemonade to make the rest of your postseason
just a little bit sweeter.
Refresh your season with Jim Beam and Lemonade best enjoyed together.

Back to me.
Hey, it's us to Jonas Brothers, and guess what?
We have some big news.
What's the news?
Huge news.
We created our own podcast called Hey Jonas.
We invented a podcast?
Well, we didn't invent it.
We just contributed to our...
We're the first people to do podcasts.
Pretty, yeah, pretty wide range of podcasts throughout there.
But this one's extra special.
So how do we actually come up with a name Hey Jonas, guys?
I honestly don't remember.
I think it was on a call about what we should call it.
Well, we were thinking I'm originally calling it one of the early names of our band.
Before Jonas Brothers.
This is how you guys remember it going down?
Yes.
I have a very different memory of this.
We were talking about a thing, a bit for the podcast,
where people could call in and say, hey, Jonas.
And then I wrote down on my little notepad,
Hey Jonas, and offered it up as a potential title for the podcast.
But thanks for remembering that, guys.
Listen to Hey Jonas on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts,

Just listen. We don't care where you hear it.

The French Open is one of the toughest tests in tennis,
and I know firsthand because I competed there myself.
I'm Renee Stubbs, and on the Renee Stubbs Tennis podcast,
I'm breaking down everything happening at Roland Garris.
Every match, every upset, and what it really takes to win on clay.
Jenchian win.
I mean, she went down in three to Rabakina, but I'm delighted.
She's an outsider to win the French for me.
And she likes Clay.
Listen, Lerner Rabakina is arguably the best player in the world,
right now and I actually can win on any surface because if she's serving, well, good luck.
Consider this your court side seat to the French Open.

Imagine an Olympics where doping is not only legal but encouraged.
It's the enhanced games.
Some call it grotesque.
Others say it's unleashing human potential.
Either way, the podcast Superhuman documented it all,
embedded in the games and with the athletes for a full year.
Within probably 10 days, I'd put on 10 pounds.
I was having trouble stopping the muscle growth.
Listen to Superhuman on the I-Hard Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
It's this episode.
Absolutely.
Let's start the show with this.
How do you feel about the bills and the Broncos?
Broncos being the one season.
Hey, what did I say last week?
Not about who was going to win the game.
I said the winner of the Jags' Bills game
will represent the AFC in the Super Bowl.
And with that record right there,
I'm doubling down on my stance.
Okay.
And saying the Bills will beat the Broncos at Mile High Stadium.
I said the only way they were going to get it done
was if Josh Allen put on his capon.
What did he do?
He put it on and won the game himself.
You look at the teams who won this weekend.
Matthew Stafford,
Josh Allen,
Brock Purdy and Caleb Williams
all quarterbacks
Let's forget the last two games
Okay, or the last game
But those four back those quarterbacks
Went out and won the game
I see that happening this week
I like the bills here
I don't feel confident enough to bet one way or the other
Because I'm two and ten in the last couple weeks
But what I really like getting into the
The schematics of the team
What I really like about the bills is
They had the number one rush attack
Going against the number one defense and the Jaguars
Wasn't working for them
So they go ahead
and who's my guy that they were,
they were dinking and Dunkin's here.
Shakir Kalir.
What, 12 receptions,
over 100, 82 yards.
It was just an extension of the run game.
They just find a way.
And I know we talk about in a year
without Mahomes,
without Burrow, without Lamar Jackson,
it might just be the year.
And I just,
I don't want to steal what we talked about
before the show,
but this being Bo Nix's first game,
I just think,
you know, there's going to be a rude awakening for him.
I know that defense is incredible.
You know, they'll obviously help them out.
But I like the bills here.
What's the line on?
One and a half.
I'm sorry.
You know, I should ask.
It's kind of scattered everywhere too.
Yeah, it's really a pickle.
I like, so what I did, I tease the total score to 54.5, which is minus 3.30.
And I'm going to take the under on that.
I'm going to, hear me up.
I like that.
I'm going to parlay my four.
Yeah, I'm at this age.
And I'm going to tell you what those odds are at the end.
I already put my money where my mouth is.
I sent it in the group chat.
But give me the under at 54 and a half.
I'm going to keep it 100.
You can't lose with that because I was taking under with the 46 and a half.
So moving that line to 54 and a half.
Bro, it's only minus 3.30?
I think I like that.
I like the under.
I like the president likes us and you like that.
Yeah.
And this is it's Beau's second.
They went.
Oh, they would, but they got blown out against the bills.
Against the bill.
This is a rematch.
Yeah.
Okay, well, number one seed at home.
Could be a tough out and is all I think.
Give me the under.
Under.
Under 54 and what I say?
54 and a half.
Minus 3.30.
He said minus 130.
No, minus 3.30.
Oh.
Yeah.
Yeah, I'm good.
Only four legs this week.
That's a hitter.
That's a hitter.
I'm not worried.
Yeah.
You're going under 54.5.
I'm telling that.
Is that how they say?
Telling.
Tailing.
Yeah.
Like a tail.
You're falling behind.
Well, he's telling that he's going to tail.
That's what he had to say.
Yeah.
Okay, so that's what your pick is as well.
So the total in this game is 54 and a half.
No, the total.
Oh, for us.
Yeah.
For all of us.
Oh, yeah.
If you want to join.
Yeah, for all of it.
I'm going, listen, I love where you guys's heads are at.
I'm probably going to jump on that parlay.
You sit in the group chat later in the week.
I'm going to pick the game.
Because it is a pick-um.
I liked what you said about the Broncos and Josh Allen.
I think Josh Allen, 36 yards, three touchdowns, and zero interceptions.
It was very clear that the better roster was the Jacksonville Jaguars at home this past week.
They ran the ball for 6.1 yards per carry.
They get away from the run a little bit.
Trevor Lawrence didn't really seem himself from the accuracy standpoint.
They got a little pass happy.
Which is you want to put that pressure on Trevor Lawrence.
However, you had the key of the game right there and it was on the goal.
round with with your running backs now I look at the Broncos and that's a complete team right
they're the number one number two run defense number seven past defense they are very good
the biggest question mark that the Broncos have is the only question mark that the bills don't
have and that is what is the quarterback going to show up and do a lot of times when you have a younger
quarterback a guy that hasn't been the league very long and they have the one seed they're graced with
the one seat because their season went so well that break could be detrimental for you and your
team because I have no doubt that
Think so with Bo and Nixon that professionalism?
I love the professionalism.
I love Sean Payton.
They have a history of starting, starting slow and picking it up at the end.
They remind me a lot, not in such a dramatic way, but kind of how we perceive the Kansas City Chiefs last year, where they have all these one-score win games, comes down to a couple gimmicky things that take place in order for them to win.
The Broncos have a better roster.
They probably have a better coaching staff.
They definitely have better wide receivers.
Definitely.
But something about Josh Allen, this path that we talked about without Lamar Jackson, without Patrick Mahomes, no Joe Burrow.
His path to the NFL has never been so clear.
And when it comes down to the marrow of it, it becomes Josh Allen and him leading his team into the AFC championship.
I like Josh Allen.
I like the Superman Keep he puts on.
The question will remain until these playoffs are over until the bills lose.
How long can he do this for?
but the way he's operating right now,
Dave Davis gets hurt,
they don't flinch,
clear Shakir,
you already burn up,
12 receptions for 82 yards.
Like, they are really operating
at a high level right now
with not a lot of resources around them
other than that quarterback
and his ability to make something out of nothing.
And for that reason,
I will be taking the Buffalo Bills.
That only scares me
because they're going against better DBs.
Yes,
a buddy had 12 catches
against a Jacksonville riddle backfield.
Now he's going against,
what, Soutan, Patrick, Surtan, Riley, Morris.
Hey, let me, defense is for real.
For real.
You watch the game, like, the Jacksonville Jaguars, like, how they were in the run game.
Yeah, there wasn't slops.
They were not, like, we were winning the line of scrimmage.
Every time a receiver caught the ball, there was zero room for yak.
It was, like, tackled immediately.
Anytime there was open space, the first guy took him down.
Like, there were so many things you watched that you're like, man, the bills have to earn every single yard in this game.
And they end up just wearing them down at the end.
And I think this rest, and I'm solely talking about the quarterback.
And I would love for Bowdo Nix to prove me wrong.
Future friend of the show is amazing professionalism.
He's going to have a long career.
But when you're this young, you get the buy.
There's a lot more pressure that comes with that.
And sometimes even being at home, when you feel the pressure of that fan base and how great that fan base is, it can hurt you a little bit.
And when you have Josh Allen on the other side, and I'm picking out who's going to out dual who.
I'm going to lean on Josh Allen for those reasons.
Exactly.
I love what you said.
I feel what you're saying, too.
A bye week, I just, I don't, I don't like the buy week.
I feel like you plan through the playoffs gives you a better momentum.
Depends on health, right?
If your team is relatively healthy, that's awesome.
That's awesome.
Yeah.
I feel like they haven't been able.
They probably sat back and weren't able to get too comfortable based on their last final two
performances in the season against the Chiefs and the Chargers because they didn't like look that great.
They won the games, but they didn't look great toward when you're chilling on the buy week.
You got a little bit more urgency because you know you haven't put your best
your best tape on film in a few weeks.
I think it's going to come down to this pass rush,
getting pressure on Josh Allen,
and then also is Denver going to be able to run the football?
Because if they can run the football,
they can control the game a little bit more.
Bo Nix won't be out there having to force anything.
Because if he gets in a spot to where he's going to have to force the issue,
I can see that's where it's like Josh Allen,
throwing the cape on and everything else.
But for Buffalo to have to go out in the altitude in Denver,
I just think defensively, the defense is for real with the Denver Broncos.
it's going to be tough for Josh. When you look at previous games throughout the season,
you look at how Josh was against the Houston Texans, how Josh was against the Falcons,
when they were able to get after him and pressure him a little bit. The only if part of it is,
if that cape is on, Josh can get out of pressure and make place happen. I just think against this
Denver secondary, it's going to be a hard thing to do. I'm taking the Broncos in this game.
And to argue my point, we've seen the bills when Josh Allen is under pressure when he was
against Houston, sacked seven times. And like pressured countless of times.
Like when that stuff happens, you see the results of those games that happen.
Still.
Actually, what I'm going to do is I'm going to take the under 54.5.
I'm going to take the under 54 and a half.
I like the Broncos in this game for everybody watching.
Before my pick on the show, I'm going to go under 54.5.
You got to parlay that with the other three.
So, you know, one of them loses.
It's all in four.
You don't know how it works.
So basically, I'll just write on all your bets.
If you'd like.
Okay.
I'll do that.
Okay.
I'm just going to, I mean, to me, that's a very good bet.
But there's three.
We're talking about just a one for one.
I'm not going to fall back.
You know what?
Under 62 and a half.
I get one of these games and you guys lose one.
And then I'm sitting at one and one and three
and you guys are 0 and four.
So I guess it's even out a little bit.
I'm still going to take the bills.
They don't do it like that, Clay.
I'm just saying, hey, remember when I had mine,
they're like, if you lose one, you're out.
No, they were joking.
Listen, I wasn't going to do that.
I wasn't even going to think to bring that up.
But now that you brought it up, deal.
No.
I was thinking it was.
It's just the pick for the game.
Yeah, just the pick for the game.
It's too late.
Good job, Clay.
That's good integrity.
That's good character.
Let's get to the next game, dude.
All right.
We don't even cares about these standings, bro.
We're just having fun.
We're just having fun.
We're just losing money and having fun.
This is the guy that said they came out like some fat cats that would never happen under my back.
He's like, we're just having a good time, right?
This is essentially you in the locker room and college football told me it's just a game.
Hey, it would never.
For those who consume both shows.
I'll understand.
My wife.
Not on your watch.
Leader of men.
That shit is hilarious.
Make the locker room great again.
Leader off the cliff.
Hey, but mine's a solo bet, right?
No, no, no.
Mine is.
You're going to take, you can't be a single four and a half.
Oh, yeah, you got to go back down to, what was it?
You got to take what it says.
46 and a half.
I'm not parlaying my shit.
We're not bought.
I'm taking 46 and a half under.
You're going under 46.
Yeah, I'm not taking that.
I'm not about to parlay.
I'm not about to parlay that whole damn thing.
You lose one.
You're just a.
I got it.
Whatever pick wins, that's the one I'm on.
Just to be clear.
This is the Hail Mary attempt.
I need to go undefeated.
I need this four and home.
Hey, give it bills.
Money line.
Yeah.
I'm just teasing those odds a little bit.
Minus eight difference.
I'm going to just take the 46 and a half.
Fuck.
That, that, that, I cannot afford to lose one game and then fall to third place.
That's not going to happen.
So you're cool with what?
Second place?
I'm not going to lose.
I'm a win.
I'm just saying, if I do that bet and if you lose one, you lose all four.
You're all four.
Yeah, you got to be in.
For a penny, in for a pound.
So fear is your motivating factor to change your place?
I am on the pace of winning this thing like I always do.
Yeah.
So that's what I'm going to do.
Win.
Win.
Yeah.
Just win, baby.
Under 46 and a half.
Under 46.
I like it.
Or do you want to?
Will's parlaying.
He's all of their picks.
Yeah.
So Will?
Are you going to wait until I give you my other three?
Yeah, I'm going to hear what you say.
It's in the group chat.
It's a group chat.
You saw it.
No, I saw the parlay.
Again, I'm trying to just understand all.
You put a lot of money on that thing.
If I got to go a four and over,
or O and four, I'm down to do that.
It's incredible how much parody there is in our college football and our NFL.
This is essentially at the beginning of the show turned out where we're kind of making up the rules as we've got.
And it sounds like this week, you have to parlay all your picks for you.
Yeah, that's what I do.
I'm down to do it.
Viewership up, units moving.
Yeah, bro.
What a time to be on the locker room.
And when I saw what you batted on that, I say,
he really, he, he, I like that.
I believe it.
There's some trust right there.
Who we got next, Taylor?
We're going to do the Rams and the Bears.
And the Rams are favored at the Bears minus three and a half total points in that game,
which I know is the one you care about the most.
It's 48 and a half.
Go ahead and tell me where you're moving that line to.
I'm just moving it down four points to 44.5, which is minus 200.
Taking me over.
I'm taking the over, okay?
Listen, the Rams know how to score points.
And you know who else does?
The Bears.
Oh.
Both teams, bears lacking a little bit on defense, but they are opportunistic.
We've talked about this the whole year, making plays when they need to.
I just think, you know, this last week, let's just go back and look at the Rams versus the Panthers.
And with the Panthers having so much success, I think that was a product of the fact that they had to kind of sell out and stop in the run.
Chuba Hubbard, Rico Dowdell, which they had success, playing a lot of zone covered,
giving the underneath for Bryce Young to have his way.
But I don't think that zone coverage, that weak soft coverage is going to beat the bears.
I think Ben Johnson is going to find a way to score points as he has all year.
Defensively, I just think this is going to be a shootout here.
But I like Stafford, despite his finger injury.
I think that's like a, I think he started nine for nine.
And after he banged his finger on the helmet, it didn't.
and he didn't look very good.
Rams are going to be able to move football.
They're going to be able to move football.
So are the Bears.
I think the Rams,
I believe the Rams get it done here,
but I'm going to take the over at 44.5, minus 200.
I do have, I came across a stat on next.
Got something?
You got a nugget?
Yeah, yeah.
You guys will like it.
Yeah, most of them.
You got Stafford, an elite quarterback right now.
Don't want to some elite wire receivers.
Hey, check this out.
We'll cut this part.
Matt Stafford, last 10 games outdoors
in the rain or snow.
One in nine.
16 touchdowns, 11 interceptions.
Rams last 10 games in Chicago.
Two and eight, a minus 109 point differential.
The current forecast for Sunday afternoon in Chicago,
20 degrees, 18 mile an hour winds,
55% chance of snow.
I'm taking the under 51 and a half.
Thank you for that.
Read me that.
Read me that.
I'm saying.
I'm thinking the under.
What's the weather?
What's the weather that?
The post of that tweeted 20 degrees.
18-mile-hour wins.
That's not bad.
Jordan Love through four touchdowns through it.
Snow?
As long as it's not wet, poop was going to catch it.
I feel good.
Is he going to catch it?
He had one drop.
He had one drop.
He did.
He did.
He did.
I'm messing around.
40.
Was he unanimous pro?
Or 49 out of 50?
No, I think he was unanimous.
All pro?
Yeah.
Duh.
Oh, yeah.
All pro.
Well, I know, but they gave, they gave, Tray McBride,
49 votes out of 50.
He wasn't unanimous.
How?
Gave it to Kittle.
I know.
That's crazy.
Damn, dude just got injured.
No, that's my dog, but, yo, we can't go off if you're a star.
It's off your performance on the field.
That's what it's all about.
That's why I had an issue with it.
I bet.
I had an issue with that because they go off name.
They got two.
Oh, yeah, you got a bigger name.
George's been in and out throughout the year too with injuries.
And with injuries.
And what have McBride done?
Done nothing but ball.
Ball.
And how he don't get it?
it.
Yeah, I'm with you.
That's crazy.
I don't matter if he played for my car.
You're right.
No one's better than him right now.
Media markets matter.
It does, but no one's better than him right now.
That's what should matter.
Who's better than that current players?
No one.
A lot of PTSD coming out of here.
Yeah, I'm pissed off about that because for five years no tight-in was better than me.
Come on.
Hey, I believe you, too.
I'm just saying, we look it up.
Guys, we had to watch out for 82 here.
This is their only option.
No, it wasn't like that.
I remember what we're talking about that story?
Yeah.
So I do have a question.
Yeah.
You're taking an alternate line under 51.5.
Or did they change it?
It might have been 51 and a half.
Because right now I see 48.
Oh, they changed it.
Oh, because they see something.
Just like the weather.
Under.
48.5.
I'm taking it.
Okay.
I was just.
The weather plays factors in playoff games.
You feel good about the 44-5?
Brother.
I felt good until you threw up stats on me about how Stafford plays.
Let's see if I can get my money back
Or if they already locked me in
No, you're locked in
If you take it, you only gonna get
1750 or something like that, 1735
That got me, huh?
They don't do what got me.
Gotta make the correct decision
The first time, man.
Let's see what the cash out is.
Current bets, open?
1,700 cash back.
Yeah, I gotta leave it.
I got a ride with it.
You got a ride with it?
You're a ride with your dog?
Of course.
You want to go and take a ride with me?
Look a nail.
the back of the losing.
Watch the Rams hit the over.
Hey, must be the Rams.
Man, I kind of sit here and thinking,
fuck.
I'm gonna stick.
You wanted on this too?
Nah, I was gonna, I was about to take the bears just to say,
fuck it, I think the bears, they are that, that's, that's,
brother, they've been, they did come back.
I know, they did a comeback team and for some reason,
we can't crush these cockroaches, right?
So it's like, they keep coming back.
You know, you step on that cockroach,
You thought you got him.
Then the next day that moment, he crawling around the kitchen.
You're like, God damn.
I don't know.
They are impossible to kill.
I mean, their win against the Packers was their seventh win when under two minutes they were losing.
Yes.
This year, which is an NFL record.
It's crazy.
Yeah.
I'm going to take the Rams.
Money line.
Minus three and a half.
Yeah, I'll take a money line.
No, no, no, no.
I'll take them.
I'll take him money line.
Matthew Stafford, he's every MVP caliber year.
This is the best year he's ever played in his old age.
He targeted Devante Adams and Pooka Nakua a total of 31 times in this last game.
So we all know where he's going to go with that.
The reason why I like the Rams, because I look at the Rams defense and the corners make me nervous,
the safeties make me feel better.
The thing about the Bears that we've said all year is defense is okay, more of an opportunistic defense.
Offense is okay, Caleb Williams makes him incredible throws.
So what that tells me is momentum is a key factor in this team.
That is the foundation of the Chicago Bears.
Love momentum, love the idea of momentum.
Greg Olsen hates the idea of momentum.
However, I think when you look at momentum from a foundational standpoint, that foundation
cracks very easily.
I think the Rams are a more complete team.
They have the ability to run the ball out of 11 and 13 personnel really well while also
disguising the past quite a bit in there with their play actions.
And then you got those two receivers on the outside.
I think the Rams are going to take this game.
They're going to handle this game.
I will take a money line for the sake of how this show is going right now instead of the
points of three and a half.
But I like the Rams here.
Hat says Chicago, body says Rams.
Heart says Rams.
Now, question for how the show goes.
Since you have a money line, does it now has, does that money line now have to participate in a parlay?
No.
No.
See, once again, you're thinking about the rules.
This is Big Daddy, I win.
You playing the card game?
Yeah.
He's like, I got a three, a seven, a king and a jack.
He goes, whatever.
I win.
I win.
Yeah, we're trying to win.
So the only reason, and this is what I'm gathering, because I'm following this as much as I know as much of
you do. Clay said I have to parlay these picks to make them something. That ended up being
now you guys are parlayed. Now you guys told me I had to participate and I said I'd like it to be
solo but you told me I had to participate when Clay was doing. But the person said no no no.
Oh I'm sorry. Clay said the have to be parlayed. We stuck with that. Well I want to be solo.
All right. Just so we know who's running the show. Hey. I'll go under 52 and a half.
Okay. In your parlay? No, no. Like I'll write the parlay but I'm saying like for the things in the show.
Like I'll do that first bet I did.
And then you'll parlay it with this next one.
No, this won't be solo.
Buddy, you have a five-lay parlay is what I'm here.
You just told me this is Big Daddy.
Big Daddy's money life.
Yeah, but you're Adam Sandler.
Or you're the delivery guy.
Hip-hop Anonymous?
Damn you!
You give him on the easy ones.
Oh, yeah.
If it's in the game, it's in the game.
He knows that.
That's what I always thought of that.

Hey, it's us to Jonas Brothers, and guess what?
We have some big news.
What's the news, name?
Huge news.
We created our own podcast called,
Hey, Jonas.
We invented a podcast?
Well, we didn't invent it.
We just contributed to it.
We're the first people to do podcasts.
Pretty, yeah, pretty wide range of podcasts throughout there.
But this one's extra special.
So how did we actually come up with a name, Hey Jonas, guys?
I honestly don't remember.
I think it was on a call about what we should call it.
Oh, we were thinking I'm originally calling it one of the early names of our band.
Before Jonas Brothers was...
This is how you guys remember it going down?
Yes.
I have a very different memory of this.
We were talking about a thing, a bit for the podcast,
where people could call in and say, hey, Jonas.
And then I wrote down on my little notepad, Hey Jonas,
and offered it up as a potential title for the podcast.
But thanks for remembering that, guys.
Listen to Hey Jonas on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts,
or wherever you get your podcast.
Just listen. We don't care where you hear it.
Another podcast from some SNL late-night comedy guy,
not quite.
Unhumor me with Robert Smygel and friends.
Me and hilarious guests from Bob Odenkirk to David Letterman,
help make you funnier.
This week, my guest, S&L's Mikey Day and headwriter, Streeter Seidel,
help an a cappella band with their between songs banter.
Where does your group perform?
We do some retirement homes.
Those people are starving for banter.

The French Open is one of the toughest tests in tennis,
and I know firsthand because I competed there myself.
I'm Renee Stubbs, and on the René's.
Stubbs Tennis podcast, I'm breaking down everything happening at Roland Garris.
Every match, every upset, and what it really takes to win on Clay.
Jenchian won.
I mean, she went down in three to Rabakina, but I'm delighted.
She's an outsider to win the French for me.
And she likes Clay.
Listen, Lena Rabakina is arguably the best player in the world right now.
And I actually can win on any surface.
Because if she's serving, well, good luck.
Consider this your courtside seat to the French Open.

It's the enhanced games.
Some call it grotesque.
Others say it's unleashing human potential.
Either way, the podcast's Superhuman documented it all, embedded in the games and with the athletes for a full year.
Within probably 10 days, I'd put on 10 pounds.
I was having trouble stopping the muscle growth.

Form energy, we do the work.
Let's talk Texans and Patriots.
I can't want to hear the totals you guys are taking in that game.
Patriots are favored by three points.
They're at home.
They are the two seed against the Texans.
Will Anderson, Daniel Hunter.
That absolutely terrifying defense.
We saw what they did at the Steelers this past week.
Man.
Total points in that game is 41 and a half.
Delaney Walker, what do you put that at 75 and take the under?
What are we doing?
We got to have winners.
I'm kind of looking at the over 35 and a half.
I mean, the Texas right now, the Texas is a scary team right now.
They are a scary team.
You don't know what you're going to get with the Texans.
They come out, play good offense, play great defense.
Then they'll come out and just play good defense, no offense.
So I'm confused on the Texans.
Good offense.
They turned the ball over three times and put it on the ground seven times.
I mean, they look flustered.
CJ Straub out there, they had nothing.
They still blew the pictures, I mean, they blew out.
Pittsburgh.
Yeah, I know.
I was just, I was betting with my, I was just betting with my heart for Arod.
I just, I willed it, but we all knew how that game was.
Yeah, we don't know, we didn't know what was behind the scenes.
We found out after they lost what was going on.
There was a lot going behind the scenes of the Steelers.
Yeah, yeah.
Is the reason why Tomlin stepped down so that way the Steve's,
Is he doing the Steelers are solid?
Is there something I'm missing, like as far as draft capital?
If he is to be traded because they still have his rights.
What's the thinking behind that?
Much like when Sean Payton stepped down from the Saints and then I believe the Broncos had to give the Saints.
Some money.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Is that, am I just?
That's some good tipful.
It's a great question.
No, no.
What are you taking?
I am actually going to go with the under 41 and a half.
I just, I don't think it's going to be a lot of points.
scored after with the with it what after the Patriots put on that performance then put a lot of points
on the board i think it's going to be another shorn with the texan especially they got a good defense
i see it under under 41 and a half i was going to go with under 41 and a half because of that
texan's performance and also the Patriots performance you talk about putting the ball on the ground
drake made did not have good ball security i think they did not play as well as they had hopefully
anticipated they got the dub got that off their backs but i i see the patriots it's bound
bouncing back offensively.
So I think there will be more than,
41 and a half just gives me a little, low.
It's kinda low.
It's kinda low.
It's fucking low.
Give me the over at 34.5.
Minus 295.
Minus 295,
minus 295 over 34 and a half.
I like because you don't,
it's not like you're going against my bed.
So right in between 34 and a half and 41 and a half.
It's a sweet spot.
It's a sweet spot.
I'm not taking that.
but I like that bet.
That's all I needed here.
I like where Clay's heads at.
Over 34 and a half.
Minus 3-295.
Not like a 1600.
Yeah, but I love it.
You guys are in a good spot.
Because Patriots got defense.
Texas has got defense.
They're going to be able to move the ball a whole lot.
They'll score.
They'll be at least four touchdowns.
Because I like the Patriots in the game,
but I love that 34.
I like the Patriots too.
I like the over 34.
I like the Texas right now.
I like the Patriots as well.
I'm going to take the Patriots.
Patriots.
Drake May, we had a little conversation about Bo Nicks.
And what he did last year in his first playoff game, now he has the bioweak.
We feel like there's going to be a little washing, maybe a little rust in the tires
because he is so young.
I think the same thing took place with the Chargers in Drake May.
When you watch that game unfold in their two minute before the half, there's about
34 seconds left on the clock.
He's looking so far down the field with great protection.
He has a checkdown right there with nobody around to where they have multiple timeouts.
He can easily check that down, get the ball down to the four or five yard.
line and possibly score a touchdown they end up taking three another instance
Austin Hooper the backup tight end used to be a Tennessee Titan he hits the linebacker in
man coverage on a post route guy is wide open Drake May who's been so great with the
deep ball all year misses that throw in a way that it was it was completely
uncatchable can't have the miss you get late you get later into that game hunter
Henry hits the same very similar post route around the same yard of the yard line
and he nails him nails him right there that was more of his own coverage
as opposed to the manned crime with Austin Hooper.
However, he dots him right where he needs to go.
They go up quite a bit.
Clearly shaky with the ball security.
The team itself was like they are in uncharted waters,
even though the logo we've seen in the Super Bowl so many times,
this team as young as they are,
where it was very difficult for him to keep going.
Milton, Chasin, Chasing?
Yeah, Caleb and Chasin.
Both guys recorded two sacks in this game.
They make their hay off of three-man pressures.
You overload, one side.
with three o three alignment, and then you get the defense end
and the other one,
and then you run some sort of exotic game with that.
They're getting a lot of pressure up the middle
with those defensive ends wrapping back around
because they do a great job at pick games,
something that Mike Brable pretty quite a bit
when he's with Tennessee Titans.
When we get into this game,
I think the Texans defense is absolutely terrifying.
And at any point, they could just stop the Patriots
in their tracks and completely shut down
to a point where Patriots might not cross a 50
for a full quarter.
That's how good this defense is
and how much they can swarm Drake May.
What I love it is,
about Drake May's game is this. He knows, the snap of the ball, he knows exactly what the coverage
is. He knows where his reeds are, and he's very quick to decide, is this the correct throw,
or do I need to use my legs to get me out of it? With these two guys coming off the edge,
there's going to be a lot of opportunity to find holes, A, B, C gap to get out and use his
legs like he did. Because I know this is kind of a crazy stat because Tom Brady was there for 20 years,
but in his first playoff game, he's the first Patriot to ever record over 250 yards passing.
over 50 yards rushing.
So as bad as he plays, statistically, he still had what is a record-setting day for the Patriots.
I think they get a lot cleaner.
They get a lot crisper.
And I look at the Texans offense.
And they're not showing me a whole lot that I can hang my hat and be like, they're
going to be able to keep up.
The Patriots can play their game.
So I'll be taking the Patriots.
I like the Patriots in this game.
I'll take the points.
Whatever it is.
I think it was three.
I'm a fan of it.
I'm a fan of Mike Rable.
Mike Ribble hit, well, word out.
Friend of the show.
Friend of the show.
Hit us with the daddy text last night.
You guys know how to get Daddy's attention with the bat signal.
And also I got a job offer from the Patriots yesterday.
As the offensive line coach?
No, as a stretch's assistant.
No, I'm going to assume it to pay an internship, but I was a job offering.
So just, no, I got a lot of, I got a lot of hires.
That's why you was wearing that outfit yesterday?
You didn't like my fit?
I had the candles on.
It just looked weird.
Because I wear black.
I was doing.
I don't wear the same outfit every day
when I wear something different. People are like, what's going on?
Yeah, I'm the same way.
Sometimes your boys got to shut it out.
I got to feel a little different, you know?
I don't know. The pants didn't look like they fit the boots.
Bro, they were a little too short.
I had a bunch of my boys from Arizona corner and like, you know,
love the boots.
Your pants are waking short off.
That's what I was the pants.
I'm like, ah.
And, hey, I got so many texts yesterday.
I go online.
I'm looking for 38-length pants just to wear boots.
Ain't nobody make 38-length pants.
No, they do.
I either 36 is right here.
I'm still waiting for a flood of 10-thless.
I bet you Tocovas would take care of you.
Shout out, no free shout out.
Maybe they'll send something for the boys.
Toccova want to throw a little something else.
A little pearl snap down.
Feels like it's broken in already.
My feet are for sale.
A lot of good options at Tocovas.
A lot of great options.
A lot of good options.
We got some male models in the room.
No free shouts to Tocovas.
But my feet are for sale.
My feet are for sale in the boot category.
Your Patriots?
No, you're the line.
What were you?
Over 10 and a half?
Something like that.
Hey, what game are we talking?
already did the page.
Over 34 and a half.
There's three times a show that I worry about all of our brains.
Three times.
And it's not one individual.
It's all of us.
This is a collective.
This is CTSB and Truels.
What game we're talking about here?
We're talking about the random Steelers?
The playoffs are going on right now.
Is that what's taking place?
I was ready for my next talking point.
I love that here.
All right.
Before we get into the True Classic game of the week,
I want to talk to you about True Classic.
You can find True Classic at Amazon and Costco,
Sam's Club, and Target Nationwide.
or you can go online at trueclassic.com forward slash bussing.
I got the pants on right here.
They're hiked up pretty high right now,
but I'm telling you they fit great.
They got to stretch the elasticity in them.
Look good, feel good.
Hey, it's us, the Jonas brothers.
And guess what?
We have some big news.
What's the news, new?
Huge news.
We created our own podcast called,
Hey, Jonas.
We invented a podcast?
Well, we didn't invent it.
We just contributed to it.
We're the first people to do podcasts.
Pretty, yeah, pretty wide range of podcasts.
We're starting a trend.
But.
This one's extra special.
So how do we actually come up with a name,
Hey Jonas, guys?
I honestly don't remember.
I think it was on a call about what we should call it.
Well, we were thinking I'm originally calling it
one of the early names of our band before Jonas Brothers.
This is how you guys remember it going down?
Yes.
I have a very different memory of this.
We were talking about a thing, a bit for the podcast,
people could call in and say, hey Jonas.
And then I wrote down on my little notepad,
Hey Jonas.
and offered it up as a potential title for the podcast.
But thanks for remembering that, guys.

Where does your group perform?
We do some retirement homes.
Those people are starving for banter.

The French Open is one of the toughest tests in tennis,
and I know firsthand because I competed there myself.
I'm Renee Stubbs, and on the Renee Stubbs Tennis podcast,
I'm breaking down everything happening at Roland Garris.
every match, every upset, and what it really takes to win on Clay.
Jenchen won.
I mean, she went down at three to Rabakina, but I'm delighted.
She's an outsider to win the French for me.
And she likes Clay.
Listen, Lina Rabakina is arguably the best player in the world right now,
and I actually can win on any surface.
Because if she's serving, well, good luck.
Consider this your court side seat to the French Open.

Imagine an Olympics where doping is not only legal but encouraged.
It's the enhanced games.
Some call it grotesque.
Others say it's unleashing human potential.
Either way, the podcast's Superhuman documented it all,

Let's get it at the True Classic Game of the Week.
I love it.
Should we...
True Classic game in the week?
Every weekend's got games, but one fits just right.
Every weekend's got games, but one fits just right.
This is the true classic game with the San Francisco 49ers brought Pertie versus Sam Darlene the Seattle.
Seahawks is the third time this season that they have played against each other.
Seahawks are favorite at minus.
seven total in that game is 44 and a half.
Swift the Band-Aid off. Clay.
This is, this is obvious, yeah?
Under 58-5.
It's obvious, C-A-Ox money line.
I mean, you would think it's obvious, right?
Minus 3.50.
No, I'm sticking, I already put the money down.
So I couldn't let you and set me when I come on the show.
Clay, real quick, real quick, real quick.
Isn't that simple?
Because they were losing a lot of guys in week one,
they had a lot of injuries in training camp because the whole situation
taking place. I can't believe you made it out of their life.
But they lost
in Seattle lost in Seattle
week one against the 49ers
and they were more hurt or as hurt as they are now.
Hey, there's one, here's why
it's not so, way healthy. Here's why
it's not so simple. Cut and dry as money
line. You look at the 49ers.
The other three teams in the NFC.
Seattle, the Bears, and the Rams.
What team has beaten those three
teams this year? Seattle.
The 49ers.
Hey, you're right.
Seattle has beating themselves up once.
The 49ers have.
So I don't think it says cut and dry.
We watched the last game in which they played week 17 for the number one seed.
It was a close game if you looked at the final score.
I think it was 13 to 3.
But when you broke it down, I mean, that Seattle defense absolutely handled.
Pardy, McCaffrey, 173 total yards.
Charbonnet and Walker had combined for over 230 yards of total offense.
The only consistent thing, the only consistent for the 49ers has been Christian McCaffrey
and now that Brock Purdy comes back, I think they have a chance.
I wouldn't be surprised either way, especially when you have a divisional opponent.
It's always closer than it is.
You guys know each other so well.
Shanahan, McDonald, I don't care where they're playing.
I know it's going to be a tough environment coming off a bye week, but I mean, let's just
address the elephant in the room here.
Sam Donald, you know what I mean?
USC quarterback and Caleb Williams for that matter.
But I just, I want to see him take the next step of, I believe in that week.
So you're saying elephant in the room, it's Sam Donald that would lose this game for Seattle.
I could see a universe where Brock Purdy wins the game for them, but there might be a few
turnovers by Seattle.
So I'd like to see him take the next step.
So I cannot commit to the money line on that.
What I am going to commit to is an under 51.5.
I'm even teasing it up.
I already got three legs that are going to.
hit minus 290
nothing crazy that's even better than
the Seattle money line minus
290
is that what you're going with
yeah I like
where his head's at he's
clearly seeing the field
he's seeing zoom out to a whole new
level yeah he's
pissed
seeing his last
yeah yeah yeah extra study time
this week one loss
wipes the whole boardway you're that confident
in your parley this game this
this Joe's parley you saw the bet
Till you know, you know he's going to feel right.
Think about the letter we got.
Think about how much time and effort, anger, just everything, every emotion going into this show.
He's saying time and effort.
We're talking about.
Dude, just the slotted.
Hey, can't do.
Hey, guys, leave me alone.
I'm locked in.
I'm going for another this week on the locker room.
Zero dark.
So that's what I'm saying.
You've zoomed out and you're seeing it all the way it needs to be seen.
Seeing it.
I can't, hey, the teams aren't fulfilling their end of the bargain.
Okay.
So now it's time for me to jump on.
The Mule Express here hit these unders and overs.
Yeah.
So you went under 50.
51 and a half.
Will went under 501.5.
Is it 45 and a half?
It's a 44 and a half.
It was 45 when I look.
So it's, you know.
It keeps going.
I'm going to check the bar layout right now too.
Oh, I'll let you know what it is.
I got it all that.
Oh, you got it.
Yeah.
I mean, you got San Francisco brittle with injuries.
Oh yeah.
We're not even talking.
about losing kittle. Kittle. I know they didn't have them for that first game.
That first game, they beat. It's way different than a guy getting injured in a game
versus having a whole week to prepare knowing that guy's not going to be. Yeah, that's true.
Way different. But go ahead. I don't want to kill your. No, no, you didn't kill my,
I like that feedback. Uh, you got a healthier Seattle team. We know this is a rivalry week,
pretty much for these two teams. They play each other a lot. Obviously, third time plan.
What is it, two and one? I just, I can't pick Seattle. Since I can't.
I ain't picked Seattle because obviously we're our 49er jacket here today.
So man, I gotta go with the under.
Bang, bang.
I got to go with the under, hoping the 49ers.
Did that fart?
No.
Somebody fart?
That was the phone that went.
I got a smell fart.
Go ahead, my fault.
I don't want to swallow it.
Okay, so yeah, like I was saying,
I can't pick the Seahawks and I'm hoping the 49ers win
because like you already know, y'all don't know.
I'll go to the Super Bowl.
I'm going to be there.
So, yes, San Francisco taking the under 44 and a half.
I think that's a safe bet.
But I just, yeah, I just, I don't want to move the line
because what we got going on right now,
I ain't trying to parlay that shit.
I just want to.
Sounds like you don't have to.
Yeah, you don't have to.
The only people that have to is Will and Clay.
You don't, hey, you don't have to.
I think it's going to make up the rules.
I think it's going to be under.
I think, I don't think they're going to put a lot of points on the ball.
I think it's going to just be an under 44.
Did you think the 49ers were going to put a lot of points on the board against the Eagles?
Because I didn't.
No.
And they go down there with, what's his name?
Who was that receiver?
I had to.
DeMarcus Robinson.
Yeah, he had like over 100 yards or something.
He felled up.
Went down there.
I just, I didn't expect that.
And I should have expected how the Eagles performed, but that's neither here nor there.
I'll tell you what, we saw it pretty clear that the Eagles were won and done.
Yeah, all right.
Yeah, you did.
You could start seeing it during the game.
Hey, what were the Eagles with that cereal that clump got us?
100% toasted.
100% toasted.
He was on the box.
whole time. And everybody that's argued about this Eagles team, we got the moment right there.
Everybody tuned in. It was a two-minute drill. Philadelphia with the ball. Interception.
They went down the field and they just didn't hit that fourth down. What pick am I thinking of?
You're thinking of Jacksonville when Trevor Lawrence had a chance to go down there. Trevor Lawrence,
the first pass was a pick. It was a pick. It was a tip.
Well, no, that, well, the dangerous, you're talking about, you know how
Tendrix?
The receiver batted that bitch in the air.
He talking about which one?
The Jacksonville.
Yeah.
He, big.
And then that was over with it.
I know he had his hands on it, dude, bro.
He had his second hand on it.
It was okay, we're going to see a Trevor Lawrence, like, legacy drive here?
Like, the game was incredible.
And then just to see it go off, old boy's hands.
I'm like, game over.
As soon as they went in there, I was like, it's too high.
But the Eagles were driving.
They were driving.
They hit a fourth down to their tight end, I believe.
Dodder.
Oh, and then it was like.
No, you're right.
You're right.
You're right.
And it was just a, I mean, I don't know much about offensive play calling,
but I know I didn't like it.
Yeah.
You know, it'd let you have bad taste in your mouth.
Yeah.
Yeah, I just thought.
I mean, you, I ain't going to speak on about it because we got, you know, but.
That's why the OC got fired.
He did not get fired.
He was relieved of his duties?
He's just no longer the OC.
They want to keep on the staff.
That's a very eagles thing to do.
Yeah.
Like Chip Kelly comes to the team.
They take, uh, what was his name?
Who's the GM?
When they take Roseman, they're like,
go to the other side of the building for a couple of years.
And he's like, all right.
And he just comes back and now
he's like the best GM in the game.
It was before he was fired,
but yeah,
they had well known that he's still part of the youth.
Still part of the Eagles organization.
They feel like I'm taking crazy pills.
You didn't have a pick in that game.
That's all right now.
You're visualizing Trevor Lawrence.
He had a chance.
Not the end of the game, though.
That one was over the middle of the field.
Yeah.
That was the end of the game, bro.
There was a minute left in the game.
No, no, I know.
Purdy had two picks, Quinyon Mitchell in the second half.
Yep.
A. Rod had the pick where they ran back.
Brain blast, Will, come on.
Brain blasts, but I'm going crazy.
I'm still going crazy in my head right now.
Yep.
Staper had a pick.
Fuck.
Caleb had a pick.
I mean, every, that Caleb pick, that receiver didn't know what the fuck he was doing.
No, they should have called a timeout.
When he ran from that side to that side, I said, he don't know what he got.
And then he ran down the field with his hand.
like this. Wide open though.
Why? No, he, but it was a post.
He thought he was going to break it across
and he did it. Because if he would have broke the cross,
that DB fell. He would have caught it.
That was a running. I wish he wouldn't have
thrown it because, you know, the Packers were like,
his game's over. I know they did it.
Nice hat, by the way.
Next, brother. I decided to keep it on. I'm saying
did you pick what you wanted? Yeah.
If you wanted something, under 51.
Yeah, mine is 20.
Right now. No, I'm in line
with all the picks of Clay.
I got, yeah.
You letting Clay did the thinking for you today.
No, no, no, no.
Dislikes it.
No.
Like, I threw out like who I like in the game,
but I'm riding with my dog here,
Green Dog game.
Right.
Okay.
I'm gonna take the Seahawks.
I think the same situation,
Bo Nicks, Drake May,
we can kind of feel that with Sam Donald.
But I like the Seahawks and the way
they've been able to establish the run quite a bit.
Sam Donald, it's not all the pressures on him
when it comes to winning the game.
Their offense is scoring the second most points per game
and their defense is holding teams
in the second least points per game right now.
Complete team all around, extremely healthy.
They have a great mix of four-man rushes,
but also bringing exotic games and twists
and also blitzes to get to the quarterback
on a consistent basis.
And I look at the 49ers, man.
And I'm absolutely gutted for our boy George Kittle.
Like from a purity standpoint of loving football,
there's not another individual I've ever met
that the age he's at that still loves the game
the way a Pop Warner kid when he suits up every single day loves the game.
And for that, it breaks my heart.
I know Trent Williams is playing in that 70% range.
The idea of Fred Warner, who has his opening to be able to come back into the playoffs,
if it's the NFC championship of the Super Bowl after having the dislocated ankle early in the season.
That is all an incredible storyline to me.
A couple with Brock Purdy, there's he gets hurt.
Mac Jones comes in the game.
He starts balling out.
The question starts is when Brock Purdy is healthy.
Do you keep Mac Jones in?
And it's like, Brock Pretty comes back in.
He's now like whipping out that five-game stretch of he's scoring the most points for game
out of any other team in the NFL.
I think it was like 35, like 32.5.
But when it comes down to complete defense, running the football, able to get pressure,
it's the Seahawks.
I'll take the Seahawks minus two and a half.
I'm moving on.
I like it.
I like that's good.
I think that's great.
Take the Seahawks minus two and a half.
I think this is a, this will be a monumental day for San Diego.
Sam Donald from going from, hey, it's incredible how you can reinvent yourself once you go to the school of Kevin O'Connell.
And then it'll be, and he's won a playoff game.
So now there's not that he's great in the regular season, but the last two couple of weeks he kind of folds a little bit and then they lose their won and done.
There's a great step for him.
And I think once he gets past this step, this is probably going to be your representative in the Super Bowl.
Unless I see something in this game.
Don't know about Seattle.
No, I like, talking about Seattle.
Yeah.
I like what you said about this isn't on Sam Darn.
to win the game.
Because we talked about Charbonnet and Walker having over 20-130 combined, yeah, in rushing
and receiving yards.
And what do he go?
Sam Darno, 20 for 26, 200 yards.
Just don't turn the ball over.
And we'll be all right here.
So, I mean, that was very much the Seahawks recipe when they were cooking with Russ and
beast mode and had the legion of boom.
So Seattle then, Seattle now.
It's such a well-rounded team, too, where it's like, Sam and D.
just isn't in the, he won't be in the spot unless, you know, it's having the end of the
and you can see a two-minute drive to win.
But just overall, that team, how they put every piece together
offensively and defensively, he's just not in a spot
to where he's got to force the issue.
Just be what you've been all year.
Because early in the year with Walker and Charbonnet,
it's like they go east and west and they're like searching in the backfield
for the hole.
And they've like now are consistently running downhill
and seeing a gap and hitting it and falling forward,
creating themselves in more manageable positions.
And it just clearly opened up their offense in a way like,
okay, we're multidimensional now the way we're able to run.
JSN is just a monster.
They're running out.
Barn him the tight end.
Who they brought in.
I'm blanking on his name.
Oh, yeah.
Shaheed.
Shaheed.
He's a partner.
And then Sammy D. too, like, he's got, he's definitely more of one of these
quarterbacks, but he's got a little.
He'll take off.
He's got a little juice about it.
He can sneakie a few yards here and there.
He's a redhead D man.
You got to.
Yeah, the biggest thing is the injuries for me.
Because I think Shanahan, but like the what he's been able to do, like,
we saw a game earlier this year with a multiple wide
receivers out, Trent Williams being out, and basically being CMC, and they were playing the
Rams where at the time were seated in that one slot, probably best team in the NFL, and they
went down and they won that game on Thursday night football. So it's a possibility. That's why I mean.
It won't be surprising because the story all year with the Niners is they've just been counted out
and they just happen to be one of the best teams in the NFC. They've been getting 5Ged all year.
Yeah. And we're now finding out that there, we got some issues over there in that practice
facility a little bit. Well, you know, I've been, we've been, that's been an issue since I've been.
in there. They talked about the moving that. Substation? Electrical substation. So they talked about
moving because when I was there, it was saying that it was giving people cancer. So then it was like,
damn, is it giving us cancer? So then they pushed it back a little bit and just took some of it away.
So players talked about it when you were there. Yeah, yeah. This was an issue. Like when people
talk about, look at the trees on the side with the with the, with the little power station versus
the trees. It's all green. There's nothing there. Yeah. Everything dies where the power station.
So like they would start telling us like yo this may cause cancer like this is a study they're doing they have doctors coming up there doing
Why you can even feel it sometimes like I don't even know what it is you can feel
And energy yeah yeah something and then a transformer exploded one day was at practice oh that shit sound like a fucking bomb went off
I'm like yo this is dangerous but get my ass to Tennessee they're not go move it you think that followed you to Tennessee with the ankle injury could have weakened
collagen and joints that was a long
Wait, wait, you can't.
How long did you practice at that facility?
Four years.
Seven years with the-
So you were in the same practice facility the whole time,
even though the stadiums.
This practice facility always been there.
The stadium was just,
so then they had to move it back closer to us
when they put that stadium right there.
So they moved it,
and then when they put the stadium closer to the practice,
they moved that shit back.
The lady got $100 million dollars.
You don't see it right now.
Nah, it ain't no law.
Because they kind of guaranteed it
like this won't do anything.
They sign this sheet right here.
We may have signed something.
We may have signed something.
I'm going to be honest.
We may have three-letter agencies.
Because I hear that.
I started it was like, oh, it may make your ligaments weak on kill.
And I'm like, goddamn, that's crazy.
And then when I saw the pitch, I'm like, yo, we practice right there.
That's the craziest shit ever.
It's the president.
No, I don't know.
I don't think, I can't say if it's that or not.
I'm going to be honest with you.
I don't know.
When you play there, did you have guys that would go down with like hamstrings?
Oh, we had dudes get hurt all the time.
Knees, Keyles, but.
More often than when you were with Tennessee?
Case study.
I can't say that because.
Because when we was with Tennessee, like, it felt like the Titans were the most injured team.
Yeah, we got hurt every year with the cat.
The thing about Tennessee, like that area that they had the practice field up, they used to be a dump.
Yeah.
And so that's like a man-made little pond and stuff like that.
And they dug out all that shit.
And they- Well, they bury most of it.
They buried most of it.
They buried most of it.
They buried most.
So you play a shitlet of trash.
What about St. Louis?
When the Rams were in St. Louis, I heard they had built their stadium on like an old nuclear, you know, power plant, something like that.
I believe it.
Burial grounds.
Something like that.
I mean, they give you the, they don't, these owners don't want to pay a lot of money.
So, oh, can I get a deal on this dump?
We'll clean it out.
Have you sell it to me for $3,000 in the ocean?
Yeah.
Yet the data is not lopsided either in the injury category.
Right.
That's why I say, like, every stadium has a lot of.
something with it that you can be like deep down aside is it the chemical in the trash that's been
buried under us is it the electrical plant is it the fucking nuclear burial site like what name was
nuclear burial site would be where they buried nuclear waste yeah right whatever you know in green
who's got a little Chernobyl going on there's green green green bay had a little chinoble we had uh
i used to live on the fox river when i played up there nice beautiful a it came down from green green bay which
went all the way up to Lake Michigan,
but I would fish for walleye with the boys in spring and summer
and they were like, hey, don't eat any.
They're loaded with PCBs.
And I guess the old, you know,
they used to build the factories on the river back
and the egg of the transportation,
dumped it all in the water.
So for years when I was there,
they were doing a whole dredging projects of cleaning it up,
but they were saying if you catch any walleye bigger than, you know,
12 inches or something like that,
like don't eat it because they're going to have more of those
forever chemicals or whatnot in it.
That's scary.
That's I grew up in in Bontair.
They had to dig out the whole yard because there's lead everywhere.
They found lead everywhere.
That explains a lot.
I'm living next to a chat dump.
Baby, wheel.
Chewing on rocks, lead rocks.
With a chat dump, we climb.
What about next to a power line?
I mean, it's a lot of fuck this stuff.
I mean, I think the Chargers is on a dump site too.
They new facilities.
The way they played, yeah, they are on a dump site.
Yeah.
That's a great show today.
Great show today.
So you're going to do our parlay, guys.
Oh, yeah, parlay.
Yeah.
What do we have?
What do we have?
Let's see.
I just took Seattle.
That the bros parlay.
I'm saying, Christian McCaffrey, anytime touchdown.
Christian McCaffrey, anytime touchdown.
Let me get that Delaney.
Where are you going?
Josh Allen, anytime touchdown.
I love that.
I like that.
Travian Henderson, anytime touchdown.
I love that.
Do you, though?
He didn't run a whole lot this past game.
Look at the stat.
Pull them up real quick.
Now, you can change it.
before we go to, you know, before we release.
Don't pull it up, Trayvon.
I'm just helping you out.
I believe it.
Anderson got more burn, right?
I believe in the underdog, bro.
Yes, it's plus 180.
Ramandre.
That's the hardest one is plus 180,
but I believe in the underdog
because I believe in the weeks prior
don't define you for the next one.
No, no, I understand,
but they're going to give it to Ramondry Stevenson.
He was a dog out there.
That's all I'm saying.
Do you want to switch it to Ramonjo?
Yeah, but they're using wheel routes
and different like screens when it comes to Henderson.
Henderson more like a third down back, right?
He'd come in on third down.
I don't know if I'll tail.
Andre is like their goal line back.
This is the best the boy's part of late.
Yeah.
We got a tail.
All right.
We're all in the box.
Hey,
give me Puka Nakuwa.
Ooh.
Anytime touchdown.
That's a dope.
So we do two with him?
No,
just fuck.
That's plus 1,694.
Yeah,
$10 will win you $169.
Because you know you're $0.42.
How much will $100 win you?
One thousand.
What about?
He's a residential.
He's a residential.
Hey, what about $1,000.
What about $1,000.
No, 30,000, 600, $0.00.
$0.94.20.
Banger.
Oh, will they let us?
Boys, great show.
Great show.
A phenomenal show.
Oh, I can't believe.
Hey, and just for all the fans out there, remember, the Bears still suck.
The Packers just did a little bit more last Saturday.
They were going to go crazy in the comments.
They did a little bit less.

Hey guys, it's us.
The Jonas Brothers.
I'm Joe.
I'm Kevin.
And I'm Nick.
And guess what?
We created our own podcast called, Hey Jonas.
We invented a podcast?
Well, we didn't invent it.
We just contributed to it.
We get to ask other people to do podcasts.
We get to ask other people questions because we're sick and tired of being asked questions.

you hear it. Another podcast
from some SNL late night comedy guy,

between songs banter. Where does your
group perform? We do some retirement
homes. Those people are starving
for banter. Listen to humor me with
Robert Smigel and Friends on the I-Heart Radio
app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you,
get your podcasts.
Last night, a blown call changed a game.
This morning, the internet lost its mind, and nobody's telling you exactly what happened.
That's where SportsSlice comes in.
I'm Timbo, and every episode, we're cutting through the noise, breaking down the biggest
moments in sports and giving you the real story behind the headlines.
And we're going straight to the source, the athletes themselves, their locker room
stories, their reactions in the moment, and the stuff nobody gets to hear.
