I usually hit. I usually hit. This year, this year. They didn't say that for a long time. This year, just, you know, I'm all over the place. I would love us to look back in the last three weeks. I didn't say this, I said this year I haven't been hitting. Okay.

I would love us to look back. But you usually hit. I usually hit. I'm listening. I would love us to look back at these last three weeks and see how many time Delaney goes, good, perfect. After all three of us in the same game and goes the office. opposite way and how many times it's worked out for him. Because you just.

You got that, can't get that neck around. I'm talking about fading you guys. But let me tell you this story real quick about the Titans before we get into this. Yeah, you said something happened this weekend. It's quick. So look, I get to the stadium.

I don't have a ticket. Never do. go up in there. They're like, oh, Delaney, I'm hugging people because I know I ain't got a ticket, so I got to hug everybody, right, to get in this stadium. So I get in there, they go,

oh, but wait, the tights front office people looking for you. And I'm like, for what? Why? They're like, we don't know. Let us radio them in. So they radio the front office person this lady comes.

I've never seen her before. She'd say, oh, my name, Nadia. You remember Nadia? Maybe. Yeah, so she goes, Do you remember? Probably, yeah. Stay in flow state.

So she goes, do you remember? Y'all talking, whoop. No, no. She comes up to me and go, hey, do you remember me? Woo-whoop. I watched the show. Taylor, a good friend in mine. So I'm like, really?

So I'm like, damn, what do you do? She's like, I'm working in the front office. You don't remember coming up there with Taylor? And I'm like, so I'm like, Taylor, do you remember Nadia? Nadia. Nadia. Nice try. Good one.

Yeah. Dude. Damn. You almost got me too. You almost got you. You almost got me. Damn. She's like, Nadia, I'm thinking, I probably wouldn't remember anyway.

Too many shots in the head, but. Damn, I thought I was going to get you. That was a good try. It was a good setup. Yeah, because you even came in the shot, but that's crazily happened. I know. I'm ready to hear your story. I didn't think he was going to say, yeah, I remember.

Wait. I think he said maybe I'm so confused I think you had it Yeah I think he did Because if we said no He could have got us right No he got to go who

I think he said Nadi out loud And that's where he's No he didn't did it Did you say I think you could Yeah I said it the second time He said Nadi

I should have got him Yeah Hey that's all right Hey hey that's reflective of your record Did you know Story of the season Story of the season Clay you brought gifts

Yes, I did bring gifts. Listen, boys, as you're well aware, it was a great day. A great weekend for Southern California sports teams, all right, starting with the L.A. Dodgers, back-to-back World Series, just an unbelievable game. Hopefully you watch Game 9. But let's move forward because it was also, it was a great Saturday night for the USC Trojans. They defeated the Nebraska Cornhuskers. And I think, you know, it was a hard-fought match game.

And I just want to bring some gifts and some items just to smooth things over. You know, like no hard feeling. It's kind of like when we beat the Wolverines at home. So first off, I know you guys love your black balloons. You released them. But I blew them up, stayed up late last night. My son comes down and goes, Dad, some of your balloons deflated. And I said, I know, son, much like Nebraska's playoff hopes.

They just deflated overnight. And then he goes, well, what are these for? And I say, well, their remembrance balloons. You know, when somebody passes away, he goes, well, who die? I go, no, goes, did somebody die? I go, yeah, a program did die. So I brought these for you because I know you love your black balloons, okay? Just a little accoutrement here.

I also brought you this Trojan helmet. I was hoping maybe you could just harness some of that power and just put it on real quick. Just put it on. See, the whole thing, I'm going to have you open a gift here. Okay, see if it fits. It doesn't fit my big brow, but let's see if it fits your head. Is it? Oh, you look good.

Yeah, it looks sick. Yeah, look good. I would never want to fight them. The boys put together a card for you, thoughts and prayers. Just keep your head up, kid. That's all I just wanted to let you know right here. Wow. But yeah, so I just, I got you one last gift.

Now listen, most people call Penn State linebacker you, but we all know USC is linebacker you. You would have made a hell of a hell of a gift. Trojan. So I'm gonna spoil things. I got you your number 51. Actually, it's cut already. You don't worry about it. I think of everything. I got you your own number 51 USC Trojans Compton because you would have been a great linebacker. Wow. That's sad. Wait a sec. Wait, hold up. Wait, hold that up. That's not a 51 jersey. Who's is that? Sipson. Oh, no.

Oh, no. Oh, no. That's not what I ordered. Dude, you got to believe me. I ordered you a 51 Compton jersey. Who did they send? O.J. This is outrageous.

I can't believe. Wait, did the goal go to fucking Nebraska? What? Who got in Nebraska? OJ? No, I ordered a 51 Compton jersey. I'm starting to get nervous about the lady, man. You know what that was said, though, right?

I'm sorry, we gotta send that back. That's not what I ordered. You gotta believe me, guys. That's not what I ordered. Like, buddy, I ordered a 51, not a signed 1968 Heisman OJ jersey. I wouldn't, like, You believe me though, right?

Look, man, y'all got lucky. Sorry. Y'all got lucky. Our starting quarterback went down. Y'all got lucky. Big win for you guys. Our first blackout. Thank you for the gifts.

You're welcome. But y'all, you know. Whoa. We should probably start the show, though, right? I mean, that was just kind of like threw things off. That's not what I ordered. I tell you what. Will is this close, man.

You said you were over? it though. We just met and you're like, I'm over. It's good. No, I said, oh, here comes front running Clay Matthews. Y'all got lucky. Y'all got lucky with that game. Dylan Railo goes down in the third quarter. We had that one in the bag. We brought the fight to you guys. You guys weren't able to travel well. I don't want to be negative, okay? I'm going to tell you this. That atmosphere looked electric. I will give you that. So for SC to overcome that, playing on the road, blackout. There's something to be said about that. And then also, you are a better fan of Nebraska than I am of USC. I just want you to know that. So you can call me a frontrunner.

You can call me a frontrunner, whatever it is. And you are. Like I listen to you and I say, you are a better fan than I am. But we're 2 and 0 against boys on the show. And we don't play Central Missouri so we can't make it 3 in 0. So I'll blow us out. There you. Hardfall game. It was. Hardfall game. And enjoy the gifts. I'll send that one back. Enjoy Lincoln Riley. Why you got them? Man, you know he doesn't care. He really doesn't. Maybe he doesn't care about that.

Let's get into the show. This was fun. This is great. We got to look into some stuff for you, but go ahead. We had a guy in the gallery. We can get you right. Who? What's up?

You said, Robert Gallery. Did you ask if he went to? Yeah. No, I said, did Nicole go to Nebraska? Okay. All right. Hey, fool me once.

Shame on me. You don't get it? Fool me twice, can't get fooled again. No, I'm not doing a joke right now. Oh, no. You're not trusting when you started the show with it. Brother, that's what you had said afterwards. Yeah.

My mind. I'm still over here. Yeah, Delaney might be playing 5D chess right now. Yeah. How do you feel about the-you-all don't get that? I get it now. And now I'm feeling worried about my brain. Yeah.

All right, let's get to the game. Will? So aside from the games, what did you all think about a trade deadline? Some great chaos out there. Oh, my gosh. The sauce trade. Sauce trade was crazy. Just because they extended him big this past.

Yeah. Oh, I'm sorry. I thought he said the Colts extended them. But no, yeah, you're right. Yeah, no, the Jets just paid him big time in the offseason. Now they're cleaning house. Like, Jets are like, we're getting this first overall pick. I don't know what they're going to do.

They got rid of everybody. I kind of loved what the Jets did. Yeah. But, dude, like four first round picks next year? Like you're just selling parts. You're shitty. Three years? Well, no.

He said, I'm going to do it the way I want to do it. So he's going to start fresh, get the guys he feel like. Yeah, if they believe in Coach Glenn, who, like, I feel like outside looking in, he just seems like a big culture guy. You have all this draft capital for young cats to come in, build up the organization. You want to build up. Like, you suck. Like, the team is shitty.

So they are just selling away parts and moving their best players for all this draft capital. Yep. I just worry. I get nervous about the draft. I love the Rams when they were able to use their draft capital, go get guys and go win the Super Bowl that one year. Like that's the kind of shit that. Maybe they'll be in a spot to potentially do it in a couple of years.

Because again, it's like, think of it from a culture standpoint. You just paid a guy all the money in the world this past off season. You're trading because you're not thinking we need all the draft capital, but there's got to be something that they weren't aligned on with sauce. You know what I mean? Just culture-wise with Aaron Glenn being a D.C. minded cat. And the coach, too. And so they're just purely building for the future.

Well, they moved mostly defensive players, didn't they? They got rid of. Yeah, Quinn and Williams, he went to the Cowboys. Cowboys still, like, that's confusing. Yeah, I mean, you can put whatever you want. You can trade for everybody. It's not going to happen this year. It's over for you if you're with the Cowboys.

I like the Colts doing that, though, because if you're using a first-round pick, it's like, Colts are one of the few teams in the NFL that you don't look and be like, okay, they have a glaring hole here, here, here. They're pretty well-put-the-other-the-out-the-out-out-out. of what happened this past week against the Steelers. So I love them just getting a try and true all-pro-caliber corner that you can put by himself. Now your defense's scheme can get completely more complex.

Secondary gets better just like that overnight. Just like that overnight. Dude, my favorite one. And I tweeted about it yesterday, but is it Rashid, Rashid, Rashid. Rashid, Rashid, Rashid, Shaheed. Rashid, Shaheed. Shaheed. That's my favorite move, him going out to Seattle.

Yeah. Because he's a baller, bro. He's like four, he's fourth in the league in targets. Like, dude plays in the slide. He's going to open up JSN over top even more. Like their passing attack just got way better because Shaheed is a baller. And he can return. What did they give up one?

Like a third or fourth. That's not bad. Yeah. I had a question for you too. With sauce, him coming to the Colts, how quickly does a corner have to get integrated into a defense? Or can you just basically put him out there and be like, hey, run man, run cover two here? Like, is it pretty easy for him to, just?

to go in and play this week and play a significant amount of snaps? I think absolutely. I think when you talk about the blitzes and whatnot, like, yeah, he'll have to pick that up. But when it comes to whether man, two, four, three, whatever zone or man coverage they're running, like I feel like he can pick that up. And they're obviously bringing him in now

to throw him into the fire. They're obviously, like you had mentioned, okay, we got our quarterback of the future. We got our running back, tight-in, offensive line. Defense, they add him. I think, yeah, I think he starts this week. Yeah, if there's any position, train right away. It's like it's the D-line and it's the cornerback position. And they play the

Jaggs, right, this week? I think they got the Jaguars. Do they got the Jaguars this week? No, Texans and, it's Texas and Jaguars are actually a team we're talking about this week. In London? God, man, that's crazy. Oh my God, that isn't it? Germany. Germany. Hey, they got to go over there. Berlin. They got to go over there. That's crazy, though. Not America. And that's all you really need to be said. Let's get into the games. Let's rip it apart. I love the traits. I want to dive more into it though, but I saw the juice and the Quina Williams is crazy. Ravens, they're

at the Vikings. J.J. McCarthy boys. J.J. McCarthy. Ravens are favored. Minus four and a half. Total points in the game is 47 and a half. Does anybody want to take this one? I'm just, I'm taking Ravens. I think they're going to surge and try and take up on the North. Steelers had a massive win against the Colts. Vikings like J.J. McCarthy, he showed up in big moments that you want to see, but a stilter for what, 140, 150, 150? Like, I'm not buying the juice. I can't believe that the Vikings went into Detroit and beat them. And beat them.

But I'm not going to start. I'm not, like, convinced of the Vikings, because they had, like, one of their better defensive performances all year, too. I'm just taking the Vikings. I'm taking their juice. They're in playoff mode the rest of the way. Four and a half points. Ravens.

I'm with you on that. I think you meant to say you're taking the Ravens. I take the Ravens, too, here. I think this is their march to the top of the AFC North. Steelers did have a huge win. I did not predict that. and beating the Colts, but they put them, the Ravens put the Steelers on notice. They come up with a big win.

But their defense has fallen short for the majority of this year. But you look at the last three games. One of those games was against the Rams, holding the opponents to an average of 13 points and 315 yards per game. Their defense is, at least I like to believe, based on those stats, ascending and making that push. Like you had said, I took the juice. I drank the juice after that week one win, Vikings over the base.

and then they just laid an egg against the Falcons the very next week. I'm not doing it again this week. So give me the Ravens. I think it's going to be a close game. Give me the Ravens money line. You can't do that. They're favorite by four and a half. You would take a three point a game.

You got to go Vikings with the points then. Says who? Then why wouldn't Fanduels just give me, you know what I'm saying? Like, what are you saying? I'm scared. You can do it. Oh, you're definitely scared. The odds is crazy.

That's what they said. I mean. We were into this a couple years ago. Yeah. Yeah, I used to do this. Delaney be taking money lines at eight and a half point favorites. And I was winning. Yeah, that's what I'm saying.

You were winning. Now you're getting bullied into a losing record. It's the boy's fault. There's two. There's three options. You could take Baltimore, who's favored by four and a half. You could take Minnesota. And if they lose by less than four points or less, they win.

Give me Ravens minus four and a half. You think it's going to be a close game just going to take the Jews? No, because I'd rather go down. I'd rather die on this hill than the other one. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You don't want to jump into the same problem you ran into week one versus week two. Ravens about to win this game by three points. He's going to be sick.

He's got to be sick. Yeah. Why are you going to say that? He's going to be sick. I love chaos. Delaney, are you going Ravens? Man, you know what? Checks notes. It's tough, man.

I know the Vikings beat Detroit and, you know, I was sitting here thinking about that. What kind of Vikings team is going to play against the Ravens? But I feel like Detroit played to the Vikings level. Sometimes that happened when you come in, you're a high-powered team. You also play to the team's level. That ain't doing so well. So I see the Ravens as a better Vikings team. So I see that this is going to be a close game,

but I think the Ravens are going to come out on top, getting Lamar back healthy, getting Derek Henry that ball. And I just think the Vikings' offense is inconsistent. They got a young quarterback that's going to be calling the plays. If they can put pressure on them, I just see it. going to be a rough day for the Vikings. So yeah, I'm going with the Ravens, man. Tell us why, J.J. McCarthy, Michigan's, J.J. McCarthy is going to beat the Ravens. I got nothing for you on that. I'm more pissed off that I've seen here. Look at you three.

I had the same kind of thought process. Like Baltimore Ravens, they're in the playoffs right now. Like, when you start the way they did the first six games and going their byway, it's like, we have to win every single one. And the Steelers start to teeter a little bit. They lose two in a row. And they come back and win the Colts. Their defense looks incredible. We're not talking about them right now. It's like, Derek Kennedy's split and carryers, Lamar Jackson has the highest success rate against the Blitz in the entire NFL. Who blitz is the third most in the NFL, the Minnesota Vikings. And then I go back to that week one, week two, or it's like, yeah, JJ, we all kind of get hyped up. He had a similar stat line. He looked like he understood the game for four quarters,

as opposed to that Bears game where I was like, this kid's completely lost. It had a wild 180 in the middle of that third quarter. I'm still going to go Baltimore, minus four and a half, But I hate the fact that they were all sitting here and saying the same thing. You got a real opportunity right now. Especially when Delaney goes Ravens. Real opportunity. This is at Minnesota.

They're gonna have the skull chant going and the giant horn. Do it. It's all right. All right. Give me Vikings plus four and a half. Yeah, hell yeah. That just me up.

That means you're gonna win. I hope so. I think you got it. I hope I don't get better down. I'm actually, I'm just saying, I'm going to get bullied out of this. I think you got it, but they still take it in the Ravens.

Think about that. Yeah, no, I think the Ravens are going to win, but maybe it's a 24-21 game or something. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. It could easily be 24-21. You can bet that exact score if you want in the Fandoz sports book. Are you excited for this well?

Because Superior is worth playing for. Mikkel of Ultra. Yes, sir. Are we five and five right now? When it comes for playing for an ultra? Five and six. I'm down one. Okay.

I'm down one. For a Mikalob Ultra, Will Compton. Superior bragging rights. Superior Light Beer for the Ultra. Go, and we're at 500. This game's stupid. Let's get back to the episode.

Hey, it's us, the 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 it. 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 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. 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. but we 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 Help from Hypocrite as part of the Mike Coutura Podcast Network available on the IHart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Here's a here's a total for you, over under 38 and a half. That's what we're looking at with Jaguars, going out to Houston, playing the Texans.

Texans favorite in this game, one and a half. Just said what the over under is. This is going to be a low-scoring battle. Maybe a look at what we just saw with them in the Denver Broncos. Hey, tell me where you heard this line before. Texans would have won if their starting quarterback didn't get hurt. Wow. Wow.

Maybe if those, maybe a CJ Straub would just slide earlier or maybe if that other team would just protect their quarterback from those past rushes. Things would be different. And they would have been different. The Texans would. would have won if C.J. Stroud was healthy. So I'm going to borrow that line from you here. I think the Texans, well, first off, they did a phenomenal job against the Broncos. They limited Bow Nix to 175 passing yards. Only got after him, well, excuse me, only had one sack,

but got after him all game, did a great job covering in the secondary. I think they're going to feast against this Jaguars team who has a rash of injuries. I don't know who's coming back. Obviously Travis Hunter to IR. Is Brian Thomas Jr. playing? Devin Lloyd, is he back? They went out too and got Jacoby Myers from the Raiders, which I think Jacobi's now in a better spot. Hell yeah. It is, but that's a harder position than defensive back to come in and make an immediate impact.

I like, well, here's what I'll say. C.J. Straub plays. I like the Texans getting this win. This is at Houston. If Davis Mills plays, I think Jaguars went another close game. They won the first game 17 to 10, just for a little reference. So give me.

CJ Stroud's Texans, not Davis Mills, Texans. Okay, okay. I'm going with the Texans. I just something about that defense. I just can't give up on the Texans right now. You know, I like the Jags, too, but I see this being a low score. I personally, I kind of love the under here, under 38.5, parlayed with the Texans money line just to get the one and a half off the board. But I'm going Texas.

Texans minus one and a half. Love the defense, bro. Jaguars. The way this game will come down to the final drive, and that's where I'm just iffy because the Texans just haven't gotten it done when it comes down to it. But I'm going Texans here.

CJ Stroud, Davis-Mills, doesn't matter. Give me the Texans minus one and a half. That defense shows up in a big way because they're not out of it. Three or five, they've had tough losses. They can make it interesting here with the Jags being five and four. And I just can't quit the Texas right now.

Something about defense. You said are you doing taking the Texans? I'm going to Texas. Texas minus one and a half. Yeah. Well, do you want me to go? Do you want to go? You can go.

Okay, I'll go. I believe in the Texans defense. I don't believe in the quarterback for the Texans, I think, with the CJ Straub being contention protocol that I don't know what to expect from that offense. What I did see in that game against the Broncos is their run game, although statistically not the best in the world, they were able to move the change and take care of the time of possession. Jacksonville's offensive line early in the year, we're doing a great job protecting Trevor

Lawrence. As the year kind of progressed, kind of went when they went overseas, that's when you started to saw, you saw two games in a row of seven sack games, and they haven't really gotten better since then. I see the Texans defensive line feasting in this game, absolutely feasting. But the quarterback is the part that scares me,

and that's where I look at this number of 38 and a half, and I think a lot people look at 30 and a half, like that's not a lot. I'm going under 38 and a half in this game. That's my most confident bet when I look at this slate right here. Because I think the Jags are, Too inconsistent at the wide receiver position. I think Trevor Lawrence is way too inconsistent. He's going to be running for his life all day.

And so, yeah, with Little and Cleveland on the left side of that line, they've had a couple of tough weeks. It's going to be ugly. It's going to be boring. No one's going to really care about this game. At the end, I think we're looking at less than 38 and a half points. That's a solid pick. That's a good pick because I think it's going to be a defensive game.

We're talking about the Texans. The Texans just shows of being competitive, but again, it's a concern that O-line. and then them being able to protect and being disciplined. I just think the Jaguars defense is getting better. Week by week, man. The ability to take away with passes and interceptions, man. I'm going Jaguars.

Fuck that. Hey. I like it, though. Texas is 0 and 5 in one score games this year. Right now with the spread of it. It's like when it comes down to it, I'd just easily be a field goal game for Jags right there at the end. I'm taking Jax.

you take the quarterback too I like that pick I like that pick a lot Rams at 49ers Rams are favorite minus 3 and a half total points in that game is 50 and a half points Who's taking the West boys

Who's taking the NFC West Like it glaringly to me is Seahawks seem like I know it Seahawks are Rams but the Niners just sitting there 6 and 3 like the injuries that they've had The coaching job that Carl Sheena has done Mac Mac Mac The way Max played

Mac Jones 5 wins as the backup quarterback, which is just a testament to Shanahan. But as you mentioned, yeah, I think it's going to come, I don't think they can weather the storm against the sea, this is the Rams I'm talking about, against the Seahawks. Again, sorry, I'm talking about the 49th. Yeah, weather storm against the Seahawks in the Rams. And I, you look at that Rams team and for whatever reason, they have just been flying under the radar.

I don't know if it was because of the Dodgers. I don't know if it was just because of lack of prime time gains, but Stafford, the last two weeks, five touchdowns against the Jags, four more against the Saints. Puka picks up right where he left off with 100 yards. Sounds like he's good to play this next week. Kyron Williams rushes for over 100 yards. Blake Quorum has over 50 and their defense. You couple that with a defense that is young, fast.

They're lying. You know who's, I know verse gets all the praise, but. Oh, buddy. Buddy. No, no. No, no. No. No, no.

The sack. This is big. Number zero or number 10? The third rounder. Oh, why am I? I'm blanking on that. I know. Well, come back to me on that.

Byron Young. Byron Young. Brother, he had another sack, but they called a ruffin the passer on him. I mean, it was just like he was getting after it all day, really impressed with him. But I think they're the most well-coached and disciplined team that is just flying under the radar right now. I don't see, and now listen, I believe I bet the Rams to beat the 49ers the first time around. We all did. We all did.

Everyone, right there Thursday night football, that fumble that happened on the goal line. Which would have, except me. I know. Or it would have shoulda. They gave up. I think Rams' defense gave up 400 yards. I just don't see that happening again. It's in San Francisco.

I don't think that matters. I just see the Rams continuing to get better, continuing to stack wins, and the 49ers just hanging on. Listen, like I said, it's a testament to Shanahan. Matt Jones, what they've been able to do. But, you know, they get kiddled back. McCaffrey is a dog. But, you know, there's a certain point where you just can't overcome all the injury specifically on the defensive side.

He thought about that two weeks ago, but the Giants this week, it was unbelievable. Mac Jones has been, like, I know the whole conversation has been about, like, Purdy and all that, like, when he comes back, who's going to play.

Like, Mac Jones has handled the podium correctly. They were doing it without George Kittle. George Kittles then come back. Your office line's looking a little older, but they're oldest guy, Trent Williams has looked incredible. I think for the Rams, this is, you're putting on the same tape

from that Thursday night football game a few weeks ago, and this is a get-back game. I got the Rams minus 3 in this one. Puka, Adams, Stafford, Corm, onward. It's tough for me to go against the 49ers. Y'all know how much I love Mack and what he's been doing right now, you know what I mean?

But that defense and that vulnerability on that defense, I just think that the Rams is going to exploit that, especially with the momentum and the offensive firepower that they have right now with Matt Stafford back there controlling that offense and getting all those guys back, those receivers making plays to run. You got two double-headed running backs back there, getting yards. Man, this is tough.

I really don't want to go against the 49ers, but I'm going to have to take these Rams. Damn, damn. Rams, but it's going to be a field goal game. I'll take the Niners plus three and a half. I feel like it's like, when's the tide going to turn when it catches up to them? It hasn't yet. And I just, I believe that they can cover this game. I do think the Rams win it.

It's going to come down. Field goal, last drive. They're going to get out of there with a win, but I'm taking the Niners to cover this game. I'm taking Ninus. Even with that defensive line getting at their, I mean, we see Mack get up after time getting hit and hit, but I just think those. Pants falling all over his ankles. Throwing up. Bad body balling.

But I think those grabs is going to get after that, boy, y'all. I just think they did the last game. And they still won. True. McCaffrey, bro. So we got Rams. Yeah, I'm so low. I'm so low on the Niners.

Niners plus three and a half. You put yourself in a good position there, Willie. Thank you for taking it. Yeah, I got you, Dee. Sunday night football, Steelers at Chargers. Chargers are favored minus three. Total points in the game is 45 and a half. Joe Alled out for the year.

Out for the year. And Joe's been like in and out a couple of times where you have a nice little sample size. When he's not in the game, they're a fully different team. They lose. Justin Herbert is one of the most hit quarterbacks, if not the most hit quarterback in all the NFL. And the Steelers' Deavons,

when you put on the film versus, the Steelers and the Colts, like what is the biggest difference between that defense besides Jalen Ramsey playing safety? It's the defensive line. It's High Smith,

it's Watt, it's Hayward. Those guys were getting after a very good Colts offensive line with Joe Alt not playing. Like, they, the Steelers have the recipe

to be successful. Yeah. Like they showed against, arguably one of the best teams in the NFL this past week that if you play like this, you have an opportunity to be contenders in this league,

but they've been so inconsistent. I think they see that, okay, this is what we can do. High Smith, I thought, played incredible along with Wally. Both those guys slipping under blocks, getting these tackles and start backing up a lot, getting in their chest, bringing them back to the quarterback, the inside of that pocket, getting condensed. Like, there was nowhere for Daniel Jones to go. And with Joe Walt being out, Slater's been out the whole entire year with a leg.

They're on their, like, four, fifth, and six tackles, it seems like. And running back. Yeah, I see the Steelers taking this one. It's gonna make the AFC North look crazy. Yeah. And what about old Peyton Wilson now at the second level? What about? Oh, yeah.

Buddy. That kid was incredible. No. Oh, okay. But he, I mean, just sold out there running around. Tipped the ball that ended up in a pick. East West ripping around.

Like the kid can fucking run. And then Ramsey at the safety position, dude, like, he's out there, these little bubble screens, he's playing like seven, eight yards off the ball. And he is flying in there. He just seems like, kind of like Derwin James is a little. bit where he can kind of do what he wants in the field and he's got he's got a nose for it i'm in

this position where i don't want to get excited about the steelers because we they showed a little bit of consistency earlier in the year we all kind of got on them and then they've shut the bed but i like the way they stand against this charge's office i think it's all justified though defense we say it all the time 179 million dollars on that defense they did show up last week against a good colts team yeah i was calling the colts overrated not too long ago um i do i like the steelers here just because is like they're leading the north, but you can't tell me that they're not hearing all this noise

about the Ravens and the doubt that's kind of creeped in when they dropped a couple weeks ago. Going on the road, how almost that in San Diego. Going on the road at the Chargers, I'm taking Aaron Rogers here. With three points, no matter what,

even if they don't get out of this game with the win, having three points, it being a close cover. Like I like the Steelers here. I like them hearing the noise. I like them embracing the noise and turning on the tape and showing how well

everybody ran around last week defensively because that's where their big question marks been because Aaron Rogers is going to be Aaron Rogers I think as we get closer to playoff time and just owning the north owning the AFC north because everybody's talking about the Ravens are going to be coming because they are going to be coming but I like the Steelers here on the road yeah I agree with everything you guys had said I'm just curious did you think there was a possibility for the Steelers to trade for a wide receiver because I'm not going to say I wasn't you know I wasn't surprised that they didn't but I would have I would have liked to have

seen that because you know what you have on defense you've just been it's either feast or famine And their two biggest wins of the year against the Patriots and the Colts, 11 takeaways. But on the offensive side, I guess you know what you are, but they're having trouble running the ball. Jamie Moore ran for like 40 yards last week. He did score two touchdowns. But A-Rod is going to throw for 200 to 250s, not going to turn it over, give you a touchdown or two. Super efficient. But I would have liked to have seen them add another weapon on offense to continue that lead in the AFC North.

They weren't in a lot of conversations about trying to get a receiver there. I don't know how serious they were, but yeah, I like Pittsburgh here. I just hate how up and down they are in defense, but I think we just have to understand. And perhaps the team does and the defense understands like, hey, we're only going to go as far as our defense takes us. And, man, I played in the Coliseum when I was with the Rams, and the so-fi is just an extension of that.

These Pittsburgh fans are going to travel. It's going to be like a home game for them. A-Rod going back to California and just, like you had said, hearing the noise of how well Baltimore is doing and just continued to keep that lead in the AFC North. So I like the Steelers with this one. And as inconsistent as the Steelers defense has been, like going on the road, like the veteran leadership is in the locker room to where, to your point,

that we're only going to go as far as the defense as well as the defense plays. Like, they got the cats in there. They got the old heads in there to know that the pressure is on them. Yeah. Chargers. Fuck that. I'm going Chargers. Hell yes.

How they're going to win? Justin Herbert. It's Moxie. Top five. Top five quarterback. I was just say, if there's a quarterback who needs to be in the MVP discussion is Justin Herbert, his numbers are great and everything. But what he does single-handedly for that team,

he's leading all quarterbacks in rush yards. It's not because he's some dual threat Lamar Jackson. It's just because he's running for his life out there. He's trucking. He ain't running for his life. He's stiff-farming. He trucking catch. He getting up dropping the ball.

Like, come on now, my man out there. He trucked the linebacker. I mean, trucked that boy, and then it was like, first damn. Where are you putting them at in the MVP conversation, though? So right now, I think my short list is down. It changes every week. Every week. It was my home's last week.

It was Dan. But right now, it's between Stafford and Josh Allen. And then that's the first tier. Josh Allen over Drake May? I know, Drake May. Like I said, right now. Drake May been bowling. No, you saw last week, Drake May.

We'll get to that. He played well. Sam Darnold. Sam Darnold. It's so many cats. So I just, what are you won for 24, 336 and 4 touchdowns? I think we're starting to enter that real discussions of not just whoever's playing high. And you know how it is.

It's not what you do in the first half of the season. It's how you finish that December, November, December ball. So you're right. Absolutely Sam Darno. So I'll put him on the short list too. But now I think Herbert, it depends on he finishes. There's like legit five people who could separate themselves and win this thing. The top six and odds right now is Josh Allen at plus 150.

Drake May at plus 400. Mahomes at plus 450 Stafford at plus 550 Sam Darnell at plus 1,200 and Justin Herbert at plus perfect week that's a good list They all deserve

That's a good list right there You know who needs to be on that list besides his last game Jonathan Taylor Joe Flacco No Jonathan Taylor Joe Flacco Joe Flacko

Why I know Why is always really just quarterbacks and That's what it's turned into man It's what it's turned to Offensive player Jonathan Taylor

He'll get offensive player The Johnth Taylor's potential I mean it's not dead But he was He was setting up to start getting in that conversation for real because last week before that game where he didn't score a touchdown for us,

we had him two plus in the ball leg. He was on pace for 30 touchdowns for a season which would have been the record. The record. Jonathan Taylor's 12th right now at plus 3,500. 12? Yeah, a lot's got to happen.

And even Danny Dimes was starting to get in the conversation but then you throw three picks. How many yards do you have right now? Only one of those pictures on him now. Yeah. He's got to get over 2,000. He's got to score. 20 plus.

He'll add any television. In 2006, he won the MVP, and he only had 26 touchdowns. How many yards? 26 or 28. I can't remember. I think he was shy of 2000. But Jonathan Taylor, he was on pace for 30.

Yeah. He just, the running back room. We need to bet the boys again. They're back on. 895 yards with 12 touchdowns. 895 yards. 9 games. Jesus Christ.

Yeah. Offensive player. They're loading. What about poop? Nah. Injury. Missed the game. Of course, the way some of these quarterbacks are playing, like, statistically, like, if you remove the names, it's the quarterback in Seattle.

It's the quarterback for the Patriots. It is who, who, that's what I'm saying. If you remove the names, like statistically, like, stat the quarterback for the Rams, like, they're all playing better football. The Buccaneers. They slowed down a little bit. Yeah, Baker slowed down. Yeah, Baker slowed down. They had a buy, but he's going to bounce back.

I know this MVP races. After, officer. It's going to be a good one. Those four you said, you're right. If you take the names away, you just look at the, like the Seattle's quarterback. Yeah. Yeah. Patriots quarterback. Because Drake made.

That's why he said. First in the AFC or NFC is most likely going to. It's going to come down to week 17, week 18, whatever it is as far as who's going to separate that truly earn those last couple votes to win the MVP, I believe. So there's no clear frontrunner, like you said, you take away those names. They're all just. I don't see how it's on. Every time there is a clear frontrunner, it always gets money.

Like we're, it's still, Lamar last year with, eight more weeks of this thing. Who you say he was winning in the future? Did, did we pick one? Yeah. What do you mean? I said Lamar.

I said Lamar. Oh, NB. I can't even remember. Joe Burrow. I can't, yeah. Oh, you don't remember? I say Jay. I said Josh Allen.

Yeah. I'm really fucked. Oh, I mean, Joe Burroughs. Yeah, I said, Jayland. Eagles can still win. Where is he? He's number eight? He's still in it?

Okay. Hey, hey, we're. I don't see how you don't give the MVP to Drake May when the freaking Patriots win the FACC East. With the number she's putting up and their coach is up for coach of the year. Again, second. He deserves it, though. Stiking. Stiking.

Stiking. Stiking. Stiking, Rayble, Shanahan. Those are the counts right now. Brayble may pull out on top, though. We're also brought to you by Form Energy. Form Energy delivers a best in class taste with natural flavors and zero sugar. Form Energy.

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 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, people could call in and say, hey Jonas. And then I wrote down on my little notepad, Hey Jonas.

Can I ask you a question? Yeah. Who you got for the Eagles at Packers? Packers are a favorite two and a half. Total points in the game is 44. Yeah, get the notes out. I'm actually taking an under 44 and a half. Okay.

I'm taking it under. You got to hold that top 17 gambler. Yeah, I'm taking an under on this one. You got a feeling. I got a great feeling. I got a great feeling. When I tell you, I got a great feeling. I don't like your under.

Listen, I think this Packers loss was, it's just a terrible loss. And I think a lot of that stems from the fact that they are a very young roster. We saw this earlier. They show up like gangbusters against the Lions and Commanders. They drop one to Cleveland. Okay, 12 o'clock game. They got a really good defense. They show up against Pittsburgh.

Pittsburgh. Jordan Love looks like an MVP and then they drop the ball again to the Panthers. I think that falls on coaching, falls a little bit on Jordan Love. Leadership. Leadership. I'd like to, they need to be able to manage to, that's authentic. You losing Tucker Kraft though. Yeah, no, they lose.

I agree, but that's only, they got another tight end. What's buddy's name? Help me out. We don't know. He was drafted before. Luke must raise. Yeah, he's going to have to step up big time. Mercedes Lewis, yeah.

But no, I just think, like, it was a bad loss for them. I think, I mean, you got to tip your hat to Carolina and how they played the game. Rico Dowler running for 130, just churning up clock, not letting the offense on the field, limiting the Packers in the Red Zone to 0 and 4, excuse me, you know, the first four trips, six points in a missed field goal.

Like, they played as great of a game you could play to play the Packers. It still was trash. I mean, Bryce Young threw a. 100 yards. Rico obviously ran incredibly hard. Made it dirty. He'll be my bet the boys parlay this week. But one of the Packers always done after a let down, they always get back. And I think

this is their get back. Is this a Monday? Ties, what they do. Offense playing. TIE versus Cowboys. You're right. But they still played well on offense. Eagles off a while. I guess the Cowboys defense. Hey, listen. And trade too, Jalen Phillips, bro. Yeah.

Yeah. Eagles didn't even play last week and somehow came out on top. With all these losses, moving up to the top of the NFC, increasing their distance in the NFC East. Now they're playing for... Oh, the NFC East is over. Yeah, they're playing for a number one, number two C right now. So they have to be feeling good, especially with some of these trades.

But I just, I like the pack. I like that atmosphere at night. I like them getting back. You know, I think LaFleur needs to just hand the keys over to love and just let him do his thing. Like they want to run the ball. I understand that. But they, Josh Jacobs has not run for over 100 yards this year.

He scored in five consecutive games. something to think about here, but I just think you just got to, you got to, you got to let Jordan Love do his thing. So you're taking the Packers. I'm taking the Packers. Yeah, minus two and a half. Yeah, mine's two and a half. You're on the Eagles right now. Brother. Brother. Brother. He's on the, yeah. It's different squad, though. That's the Eagles defense. Yeah, but he's been like a healthy scratch. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. He's been on, because he, he's different, though. I don't think he fit in with the Ravens over there. But what I'm saying, too, just the game reps he's had all year.

Like, he's been a healthy scratch for a lot of the season and going into the Eagles. Not like he's just going to go off. Like, just be locking dudes down. So, yeah, I don't know. We'll see. I just think he's playing the Packers. I think he's playing a pack. Oh, I'm taking out under.

Under? Oh, that's right. Yeah, I'm taking the under. I'm Packers. I'm Eagles. They win the biweek. Everybody else in the NFC East has lost. Going into the biweek, they're going into the biweek,

They did a much better. This is Dan Rolowski. Under center, run game got a whole lot better. They had addition by some tracks with AJ Brown. AJ might see that and they're like, okay, listen, they could do it without me. You do a couple of the trades. I see this team now picking up steam. They're like, it's not a worry about the NFC East.

It's the first seed. It's the second seed. When it comes to the Packers, like they're put together. They're one of the best rosters in the entire NFL. And they drop an early one in the season to the Cleveland Browns, which to me, it's like, no one's ever going to. defeated. Like you're one of the, you're one of the better teams in the NFL. You do that,

they're going to have a massive get back versus the Cowboys. Yoting against that horrendous defense. Their offense is what they're supposed to do, but their defense also allows 40 points put up in them and they end up in a tie. And it's like, all right, I guess we'll just move on from that. The Micah Parsons, like, heat conversation is kind of slowed down. Then we get to the Panthers who just dropped the game like 40 to 7 or whatever it was versus the bills who also came up a buy. And I just think at this point, it's like Bryce, Bryce Young is not giving you

that many points. I don't understand how from a leadership standpoint or coaching standpoint, like you have so many dogs, how are you not able to like recognize the mistake you made earlier in the season? And I think the Eagles, this by-week couldn't come at a better time. They started to figure it out

offensively, especially being under-centered. The offensive line played much better last week. The addition, like Jordan Love, when he is not pressured, he's like a top five quarterback in every statistic. When he is pressured, he's a bottom five-quarterback. So I think adding Phillips is a key, having a week and abide a rest, getting the offensive line to play more

consistently, being under center, all of those things equal, I got the Eagles. And losing Tiger Crafts. You trust through the body of work throughout the year, you trust the Eagles offense more than you do the Packers offense? I would say I would trust the team more than I trust. But I'm saying offense. Yeah, but I think that's too much of a, like the sample size itself. It's like, well, Vance would be no. But if I look at the end, entire team and how like they don't really care about your feelings they just keep winning that's the eagles and they had their fumble against the giants the package it's like the whole fool me once thing like you lost to a really bad cleveland brown team that was already dubbed one of the worst teams in the

NFL other than their defense then you go do it against a panthers team who's not much better than the browns from a whole team getting a whole week to sit rest figure out some of these therapy sessions watching everybody else in the nfc east lose while you get to sit there while looking at your office, be like, look at the step we took from a passing standpoint in the last two weeks, run game in the last game we played, under center. I just think, I feel much more confident about looking at the Eagles and the defending national defending Super Bowl champs. And I do it this Packers team that's like, you guys are great, but you need to do it consistently. That's where I said. I like it. All right, let's get to the true classic game of the week.

Hey, it's us, the 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 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.

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.

Is a New England Patriots traveling down to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Buck's favored two and a half in this game, the over-under is 48.5. Drake May continues to elevate his MVP run. He had an off-half second half last week. He had an incredible first half. I think he threw for three touchdowns over. He was right around 250 yards in the first half.

I'm taking them to cover against, or I'm taking them to beat, upset. I'm taking Patriots money line. Patriots money line against the Buccaneers. Ooh. I like the Bucks. I like Baker Mayfield. They're coming off a buy week.

We will see if Godwin comes back and Bucky Irvin. but yes, Drake May looked incredible in that first half. Once that sat cause fumble right before the, at the end of the first half, he kind of looked a little, you know, like he had happy feet in the pocket. I don't know what that means, but I think losing Kishon Booty, he's got a hamstring injury, doesn't sound like he's going to play. Like who's going to step up at that wide receiver position and kind of fill that void? I just see the bucks with too much firepower coming off a buy week.

Emeka, Buka is just, Tess John. Watson's really stepped up. Like I just, and their defense, too, the last, they've held their last three opponents to 15 points per game. So it's not like it's just, Baker's had to carry this team, has had to carry the load for,

for some time now with all these injuries. But I like, I like the bucks here. Give me the, uh, yeah. Bucks to cover, two and a half. That was everything you said was good. It was great, man. But those Patriots. Hey, tell him how it don't matter, booty, shooty, doesn't matter.

This is the Vrabble culture. This is next man up mentality. Off the street. Brother, they should have lost to the Falcons. What type of culture is that? Falcons are the most thing. Like, Falcons are the greatest team in the world in the world. Yeah, you never know what you're going to be.

The Patriots just happen to be better. You never know what you're going to get with the Falcons. Any day. They show up. They may not. But the Patriots and that Brable culture, man, it's just, he's the type of coach you sell out for. You know, he can be an asshole.

Love that. But he makes you. Sometimes hate that. Huh? I love it. Yeah, I love it. Sometimes hate. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. But he know how to get guys fired up. I don't know what it is about Braybilt

and getting guys to go out there and give it all he got, even if it's a guy he just got off the street that week and put him in the lineup. And that dude go out there and make plays. And so he's able to go be on another chance. just because Brabel inspired him to be great. And he's inspiring me right now. Well, listen, Brable's not going to be out there playing for him.

But, you know, if Falcons might not show up every week, but you know who does? Baker Mayfield. Yep. He does. And he probably going to throw for like 400. He does. Hey, Will, who throws the best people on the entire of the film?

I'm just trying to. Treg May. Does he? Or Sammy D. Either one. They're both pretty. Yeah, they're pretty. Yeah, they're both pretty good.

Dude, I love the Patriots. I love the story of their season. They, like, they kind of started off shaky. They've won, what, six in a row now? Yeah. It's six in a row. Six in a row. And they, yeah, they kind of get away with one against the Falcons.

It doesn't go their way in the second half. They still end up being able to pull it out. I love Drake May. I love his attitude. People are talking about MVP race when he's sitting there with the post-game press conference. And everyone's like, everyone's talking about MVP, their chant MVP. And he's like, I'm just excited that our fans are excited. Like he is handling the noise correctly.

That team is hitting the noise. The culture of that team is absolutely incredible. Incredible. It's November. Yes. Weather's broke. Yeah. New England, it's a little frigid out there.

Yes, it is. You get in the morning, you get to sit there, you have put the defrost on a little bit because it's like 35 in that thing. Say that. Right. You go down to Tampa. Those are the worst games.

It kind of shocks your system a little bit. I can't really breathe out here. Baker Mayfield is playing incredible. He's had all the injuries in the world. And one thing that stayed the same is he's a fucking gamer. He goes in the Houston game, gets hurt on a run. Guy standing over him, not for him. He sends his little ass up dude.

He starts getting this chest. They're getting a little healthier. They're coming off a buy. The last three games, they do hold in the, their opponents 15 points. I like the Buccaneers, minus two and a half here. I like them. And it's not taking anything away from the Patriots. I just don't think you're going to win the rest of them, right?

And this is one of those games, I think this is a perfect game for them to drop. It's, you know, they're playing away. You got Baker Mayfield. You got that defense, a little shaking in the second half of their last game. Like, they're playing awesome football. We're going to get down and we're not going to know who the winner of the AFC East is until I think they play like January 4th as the bills and the Patriots. I think that is going to be the decider of that of this that division. But I think you got to drop one and I think this is that one.

So I'll take the bucks minus two and a half. Bet the boys parley. Yeah, bet the boys parley. Oh, you already went? Yeah, I'm taking, I went Patriots money line. Oh, yeah, that's right. And the whole weather thing kind of got me second guessing. Me too.

Well, she starts saying to why. I'm like, got it about the weather. But you know what? We did it with Brable. We went out there in Schmackcats in Tampa, fucking Florida. You know what? Miami. Everyone always says, everyone always says the Northeast and Nashville, Tennessee, same as that climate.

So you're absolutely right. Brother, I'm telling you, when you go from Green Bay, Wisconsin, or even Tennessee, for that matter, and it was like 17 degrees, and you go play in 70, guys be getting IVs at halftime falling out of the game. Oh, you know, it's crazy. People think, oh, it's going to be great. You're going in this warm weather. It's the worst. I'd rather go, I'd rather be Tampa going to play up in New England.

Yeah. Because whatever, you just, you put some, you can't take it off. Yeah, you good. No, we was the Ivy. We were that cool little thing, little hand pouch, dude. Me and him? We ain't lying. Ivy before the game.

Ivy at halftime. We didn't line. Hey, pump that shit fast. He's looking puffy after all that scene in our body. Yeah. Like a little balloon. Violet, you're turning violet. Bet the boys part like, Jalen Hertz.

Kloop, who was the number one team that wanted to ban the Tush Push? That was the Green Bay Packer. And it's probably going to get banned. However, we're going to get their ass one more time. I mean, how, Delaney, how poor is the officiating lately? Bro, they need to call us now. I mean, that tush push where, who was it, Burns or Thibodeau, he took the ball away? Just crazy.

Crazy. Horrible. But you think they're going to run it ad nauseum. They're going to run it 10 plus times. Let's break the record. What was the game when they ran it four times in a row? I think they're looking forward to running it. Hey, but you got to look at it.

When they do the tush push, they have to move those. judges. So the judges that's usually sitting over the linebacker in the middle of the line, he's not there anymore. And then the back judge, he got them too far back because it's a push play. So they can't see anything. So we depending on the line judge that's sitting all the way on the edge to give us an off-size. They can't call it. It's like, it's bang, bang. Why do it? New York jumps in and at their own discretion. All right, sorry, we got off topic here. Yeah, yeah. I hate a touch brush. He hates tough football.

I hate, I hate poor officiated. Silver spoon when he's a kid guy, you know? That went all the way up to gold spoon. Easy path guy. Guy who's never mowed his grass before. Talking about Silver Spoon. Arizona kid. Arizona kid.

All right. All right, Delaney, who you got? I'm going Gibbs, man. I'm going Gibbs and they're playing against the commanders. That's for sure. Come on, Gibbs. Give it to me, baby. Kamani Vidal.

That's the mayor of New York, right? Something like that. I got a scoring a touchdown against the Steelers. That's wild. That's wild. Mondani or something. I got you. Yeah, he's Muslim.

Camani Vidal is he said. No, no. No, I'm saying the name is similar. That's crazy. I'm like, I kind of sound kind of similar. What did you say, Mitch? Kamani Vidal is Hank Aaron's great nephew. Yeah.

Yep. On runs. Touchdowns. We're scoring them this weekend. Big hits. Oh, buddy is a beast, too. Yeah, he stepped in nice. He had a rough game last week, but, you know, this would get back.

This would get back just to get in the end zone. We need you in the end zone. I still need Pittsburgh to cover. Yeah, that's it. Give me Rico Dowdell versus Saints. He's been bawling, man. Canales finally, you know, wait, what's the word when you move someone back? You were asking about this, relegated.

He moved Chuba Hubbard back. Rico's getting a rock now. He's RB1. Hot hand. Where's Rico from? is he? Yeah He went to the same high school

as Caleb Presley dope I don't care fuck I was just message I think that's gonna a dick job I was like

Why I think I'm gonna do dinghjews Where he's from Are you just You're on a show You're just gonna ask that Like Because I thought he came off the streets

I thought he came off the streets No shit I thought he came off the streets No, Rico was with Dallas right Yeah He was in Dallas He had like a thousand yard He played well

I think he was right under 100000 yards there But He got over. Where was he before Dallas? That's what, yeah. University of South Carolina. It always comes back to the game, cops.

Good one. Rico Doudal. Rico Doudal, Kamani Vidal, Jemir Gibbs, and Jalen Hertz. Anytime touchdowns, that's your bet the boys parlay. Let's win this week. Let's win this week. And let's also finish up with the final segment sponsored by McDonald's. Gold

You voice. This is the final bite. A sponsored segment that delivers the sharpest takeaways heading into the weekend, whether it's a bold prediction, hot take, or a storyline flying under the radar. The final bite gives fans one thing to keep in mind before finishing their week or turning

before turning into kickoff. All right, this episode of the locker room is brought to you by McDonald's. All-New Buffalo Ranchos, new Buffalo Ranchos has arrived. It pairs perfectly with your snack wrap. Snack wrap. McChrispy Chicken and McChryspy Strips.

It's got the tangy zang of Buffalo with the creamy cool of mild ranch. It's mild and wild at the same time. It's a sauce that balances itself and complements our crispy chicken. There's a new sauce in town at McDonald's. Tangy, creamy Buffalo Ranch order now available for a limited time

at participating McDonald's while supplies last. I'm getting my order on right now. Shout out. McDonald's app. Nice. My final bite thought. We kind of, we mentioned it a little bit. We talked about the NFC East. If you're a Cowboys fan,

you're a Cowboys fan, you're a Cowboys fan, pack it up, spooktober's over, and so is your season. It's done. This is the Eagles from here on out. Do I love it? No. Is it just what's going to happen?

Yes, it's not personal, just business. You lose Camp Scataboo, you lose Jaden Daniels, you lose to the Cardinals. It's over. Andrews is crazy. Anybody else have a hot take out here? Is I considered a hot take?

Hmm. It doesn't have to be hot. Something to think about while you're dipping in that buffalo zesty sauce. Zesty-o buffalo sauce. Underdog Steelers, I'm going to say they're going to get a win. Steelers remain at the top of the north and starts divvying up the conversation that the Ravens are going to come back in the fold. Steelers go out to L.A., upset the Chargers.

USC? They got Northwestern. Well, I think they play Oregon, so let's be realistic here. I think they win the remainder of the games. Sands, Oregon. So three losses. I don't know whether that puts them in the Big Ten. Probably not playing maybe an at-large bid in the playoffs.

So you're saying something to chew on, USC getting out of the playoffs. Something to chew on. USC getting knocked out of the playoffs. No, no, something to chew on. Possibly a 12-seat? You got to beat Oregon. You're saying as a three-loss team.

You lose three games. Yeah, but it's a C. It's like name brand. You know what I'm saying. You know what I'm saying. You do know what I'm saying. Is this a McDonald's show? Three Laws is like.

This a McDonald's hot take. Double cheeseburger, no pickles, add back sauce. If you ain't had it, try it's the best. Shout out McDonald's. That is a five. That's kind of my order too. That's your order? Yeah.

The two cheeseburgers and the mac sauce. Yeah. Oh my God. That's what I like. But this is new buffalo, the zesty buffalo ranch. I'll put that on there too for sure. That's our show. Thank you so much.
