So we had to hop on. Huh?

Nut house. Nut house reactions. Nut house reactions. So we had to hop on and bring you guys a little recap. Another recap. I like the recaps. It's fun. It helps me for my TV gig. helps me get ready in my mind for the week

so let's jump into it I love it start off with the Patriots Jets Thursday Night Football Yes what did I predict before 27-14 What was it? 27-10

27-10 27-10 It was 27-14 You know It was close I knew it would be More than a two-score game But it was going to be closer

Than what people think Division games Always tough And from the start Of the match From the start I've been playing too many soccer games.

Been going to soccer games too much. I'm saying match. What the hell is going on? From the start of the game, you know, the Jets executed a great first drive. Took like the whole first quarter off the board, scored touchdown,

had a good scripted drive, and good teams have to answer, and that's what the Patriots did, and they go 14 unanswered, and then it goes into the game that they had. That was just a good little snippet that I thought right away, like, you know, team drives, long, lengthy drive.

You're on the sideline as an offense, and you're sitting there like, man, are we going get off the, no, we didn't get off third. Oh, we're, oh, you know, that takes a lot to go out and execute your first drive and answer. That was a big, big answer. That was a 14 play, 72 yard, 8 minute and 4 second drive. I know. I mean, they had one drive in the first quarter. I mean, the Jets, to their credit, that's how they had to play the game.

You know, they tried to play the game the right way, keeping the offense off the field, executing on third down. But it just was too much because the Patriots have grown and morphed into a good football team right in front of our eyes. You know, good football teams answer, good football teams do well on third down, good football teams do good in the red area, good football teams take care of the football good football teams have good quarterbacks

I mean I haven't looked at their third down numbers but they look pretty good probably just from afar 6 of 12 60% you take that all day What were they in the red area? We were 3 for 5

3 for 5 and they ran it in a couple They run it in? Who ran it in? Anderson yeah 2 Russian touchdown and a receiving turn run them in Now Trayvon's coming in to his own that's what you want to see

called that early this year took a little time but that's what happens he's a young football player and he's still trying to figure out his niche his role what he has to do for the team you know Romandre they need a guy that goes north and south

in between those tackles Henderson's a very fast guy but he's a small guy do you want to give him all those beatups give him all those reps you know I think if they play this right uh... Stevenson's practicing again this week good they need him they need Stevenson and they need him to take care of the football

Can't be going into this fumble thing going into the end of the season. All security is. I also liked. Job security. There it is. I also liked, what was the weather that game? I froze my, I was at the game. I froze my ass on the building.

Yeah. And the seats were wet, too, so my ass was cold and wet. Little chilly. Yeah. I wanted to see how this team, you know, we envision New England teams have home field advantage because they practice, we heard the whole, we're practicing outside from Drake thing. They go out and they play pretty deep. decent in the weather pretty well.

I mean, division game, short week, 27 points. I mean, I remember those Thursday night games. He just had to get in and get a win, especially against the division. And that's what they did. It'll be exciting to get booty back. Need him. Need his big play presence.

Malcolm Williams injury is tough. I hate that. Mill Williams, that's going to hurt. The first one or two players. Yeah, and he tried to get back. But, you know, they're going to have to hold on. and there's going to be some adversity to overcome. And this is one of them right here

because he's made some big plays for your team. So good teams, they respond and they figure your ways out. Look at the chargers, what they've had to do all year. You know, look at a lot of these teams. They get banged up bangles. You know, so, like, there's going to be injuries.

Good teams know how to overcome them. You know, Drake took less sacks too. I like that. Didn't get hit as much. I think you got hit like six times, four pressures, ran the ball four times, had one sack. We got to get hit less. The only thing that scares me is when there's only one guy in the National Football League that's been hit more, Cam Ward.

I don't even want to say it. I don't know. I'm with you. You don't want to say it. But that's what happens if you get hit a lot in this league. How'd you like the uniforms? I liked them. I thought they looked pretty good.

I love it. I thought they were good. It paired well with the weather too. Really nice. Yeah. I like the beanie that are rocking too. The beanies look good.

I like the varsity jacket. It's kind of like this color. Tight. Yeah. Kind of like this color. Bro. That's right. It looks.

I like that on you too, baby. It's the most hyped I've been for football in a while at the game. They do a little like pregame like little highlight reel that you narrated. I think we're fucking sick. My man was on his Morgan Freeman shit. I was pumped up and then went right to gronk up in the lighthouse with front of the show Connor. Connor what up, baby?

The lights go dim fucking jazzed up. That was... How did Robbie G. Was he getting the... Was he getting them hype? Dude, Rob was fucking... Every time he showed him, was crazy, he got Mr. Craft to dance.

He smashed the Jets guitar at halftime. I saw that. That was all over Twitter. The low-cash team. Oh, my gosh. Just gronk being gronk. Just taking over. Grong spiking.

We rocked Rob from like... In the stadium, there was like a little function, like, lounge place they took him to. Right in the middle of the, like, open area where the Brady statue is. Like, it was like, the bee. people were just coming out of the woodwork and we were like trying to get into this like oh my god they took rob out like

exposed in the middle of the fucking oh my god it was wild but me we made it oh my god freaking are looking at each like oh my god jeez louise if it was another 50 feet we would have been toast there in no man's land they had the garg juice yeah oh yeah yeah robbie g bro oh and vince for it you oh randy yeah i saw that oh my god Big V. Big V. Was he with the barbecue sauce? I didn't get the top of it.

Oh, man. Got to have it. Got to have it. GTHI. That's right. Got to have GTHI. Anything else from the Pats game before we move on? Pat's game.

Love that he didn't take his mini hits. Still too many. One thing I notice on the empties. When he has an empty formation, I think he ran twice. He's looking and they were giving him, I think it was, you know, I didn't look deep dive. I just from my TV copy. it looked like it was like a split zone or there was some kind of zone and he was looking at digs because they're getting on a rapport diggs had over a hundred which was good to see but he

had that hitch to the outside that he could have banged a couple times and instead he was looking at his target and then he had nowhere to go and he ran and he didn't take a sack but he got hit it like a yard you know what I mean those are unnecessary hits we got to you know we got to just bang it to your henderson running back out there corner on them you know you know it's zone you know i mean get good at those we need to we need to get those i'm sure josh is over here telling him that 1,000 percent i love that we didn't turn the ball over you that was a great block by uh we campbell was that last week the camp the campbell were the guy ran the hump and he finished it will campbell finished the block i don't was that on me i don't let me look i can't

remember i think it was what's this play oh the butt fumble do we do we think that was a butt fumble butt fumble part two? I mean, Jets, Thursday night, rushing quarterback, fumbles it, hits someone's backside, like what more do you really need? It's fumble-ish. I think because the ball was already on the ground,

I don't know if I'm... But then he picked it up, and then he fumble it again. I don't know. It's close. I don't know. You decide. You guys let us know if that's...

Hit us up in the comments whether the butt fumble is a part two or this is just us wishcasting. I think it's, I'm going no but-famble. No bum-fum. It's more fun that way. Not everything needs a sequel. On to Cincinnati. Let's go, baby.

We're on to Cincinnati. Suspend Jemar Chase for his minute. Just one game. Just kidding. I mean, definitely spit him. You can see the video, right? Spit game part two. And he said he didn't.

What's up with all these? I remember only one guy ever spitting. That was Bill Romanowski. Yeah, like now it's, we got two. J. J. J. Stokes. Now we're getting a spit a month. That's right, bro. Got analyze the tape. See the projector. Guys need to start swallowing.

Keith Hernandez. All right, let's jump into some other games. Another big game, Bills versus bucks. Bills go out and win 44, 32. A little closer than what this score shows. It was

going back and forth most of that game and the bills pulled away. in the second half. And this is how the bills have to win. They got to jump on teams, get a lead. Josh Allen's got to make his heroic plays, had six touchdowns, and score 40 points. Like, that's, because look, the Bucks with Tucker

rushed for, how many? 106. Two touchdowns. Dwight had 50 yards, 5.1, 5.6 to carry, two touched. like this was just a case of the bucks battling banged up on the road

with bake and getting outmanned but the bucks are going to get healthier you know when Evans they need another receiver I think Godwin's coming back soon hopefully I know I don't I don't think Evans will got to get Irving back in there

they got to get Irving they got to get Bucky Irving back in like this was a battle and Baker boy that boy competes he does compete and and I said it on the Fox kickoff show I said this is going to be a reminder game for Josh Allen like hey guys I'm Josh Allen

and that's what it was he didn't have two picks you know but when you score six touchdowns it's going to be hard to lose I was incredible I was willing those boys to win you know i didn't like you were you were for for the bucks no i'm saying josh allen like willed them to win yeah yeah yeah put it on his this is exactly how i thought it was gonna look bills come out you know backs against the wall they need to win this game they need to win this game more than the bucks need to win this game and win this game at home but still a hell of a game by the buccaneers

to go out there and compete like that on the road yeah you know and once again that that rush defense scares me for buffalo look the bills are going to have a shot anytime because you have Josh Allen. They got to start tighten it up. This is, this is it. We've been talking about the pasteurization period. It's these next three before Thanksgiving. Big facts, bro.

Then it starts getting in the cream season. Now, with the new schedule edition game, the cream season may have shifted kind of like, you know, the access of the earth and the weather and pattern. It's very, we're in the, we're still trying to do a social study on when cream season is. Yep. Cream season is post Thanksgiving. But it could be maybe even post one more game after that

because of the extra game. We should do a cream season special. We should. We should do a cruise season special. Explain what cream is, get butter out here, get some heavy cream, whipping cream. Shout out to the farmers. We'll figure it out.

Let's jump into another game. Let's jump into another game. Josh, we talked a lot about on Fox. We talked a lot about everywhere. Rams, Seattle. Rams hold off Seattle. at home, 21, 19, hold them off. And it kind of went just the way I thought.

This way I thought, what I say? What's going to be differential? Turnovers? Turnovers. Always. Sammy D. Against them Rams. He was sacked nine times before last time when he was on Minnesota.

He'd probably thinking about it. Probably have Verson. Who's our other guy? Verson. Who's the other D. Lyman for the. Rams really good versus and Brian Young young young young young

Hey both quarterbacks didn't have great nights but throw up the box score look at a bad night for Sam Darnold he's 29 for 44 279 yards four picks no touchdowns no touchdowns that's not a terrible I mean yeah it's it's a lot of yardage

yeah what's a bad game for Matt to you staff for 15 for 28, 130 yards, two tugs, no picks. Both didn't have up to par games to what they've been playing like. You know, that's the difference is those turnovers. They come, they're costly,

they're momentum killers. They set up field position for the other team. I believe one of those turnovers that Rams scored a touchdown on. You know, good teams will cap or take advantage of that. JSN keeps falling though. God, what a beast he is.

He's like my favorite receiver to watch right now. He had a little, huh? Look at this. First player in the Super Bowl era with at least 75 yards receiving in each of his team's first 10 games. Unbelievable. Or you can say, I didn't mean to cut you off.

He ran like an out-up, out route, which was a really cool route. It's like a squirrel out where he went out, burst it up, and then got the guy to flip his hips and then burst it out again. He's got real good sudden, explosiveness and quickness

and that one hander on the sideline smooth you know he's got a great hand he's the full package man I thought he was really good he's great he's something else man he's getting his every game it's awesome to see Denver

holds off and wins ugly again against Kansas City 22 to 19 yikes i'm still not i'm still not off the kansas city train can't be they're really they're really missing tony the offense align they're not really they're not dominating the game like they they had been they're not getting a lot out of their run game patrick had kind of a off game again missed a couple open guys couple deep balls that he usually hits and this is off

the bye week you know this is an unknown terrorist But I still believe in Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid and spags in the defense. They got to get going, though. They got to get going. I put the big boy pants on. You know, they're probably not going to get the division, but they can get in. They can get in. You know, I for sure, if there was going to be an ugly game, they'd win it.

I said it. You know, Denver's been winning ugly. Don't want to try to play ugly against Kansas City because that's what they've thrived in. it just didn't happen. Pat had that turnover in the red area that kind of messed them up. Defense couldn't get off the field.

Bonix had a solid game. Solid game still. You know, I think that defense, that defense afront for Denver is the real deal, holy field. You worry about their inconsistent offense, though? Who? Denver?

Yeah, down the stretch. Yeah, I'm with you. I mean, going down the stretch. Look, they got, think about it. They got six weeks. to get it right, you know, and Sean Payton's a smart fella. That's one, a lot of ball games in this league. Do you see him get a penalty?

What do you get a penalty for? A ref ran into him. You got to stay off the white, coach. Got to stay off the white. Where's the holdback guy? Hold me back. Look like a basketball play. A black guy?

Yeah, I mean, they both went down, bro. But the ref definitely did. The ref definitely did. Got to stay off the white. They got to get back to the basics in Kansas City. I'm with you. And they got a tough one coming up. But even still, this game was close, right?

Yeah, we're also on the road. Can't forget that. Denver's a hard place to play. Very hard place to play. Let's go on the next one real quick. And lastly, the Eagles in a defensive battle over the lions, an ugly 16 to 9. Gameplay score. MC, DC, OC. What are we doing?

He just went for it again on fourth and didn't get it. We can't, like, that was the difference. That's crazy, bro. Literally. I think a lot of them were in field goal range, and there was weather to affect the kicking game, but Elliot, I mean, how many field goals he kicked? Yeah, I mean, he was banging him in left and right, bro.

I got banged him in. Gough looked a little off. Gough looked a little off. We weren't in the dome. We weren't in dome. Hey, anytime I see a, I'm sorry. I'm sorry But anytime I see a quarterback

Throw a glove on his hand In a ring game It's never gone well I'm with you Yeah Jake Elliott three for three baby Did Big Ben do it Did Big Ben throw? Yeah

Big Ben was a Glovesman I think for a while Yeah Jared Goff looks different outdoors Yeah You saw in the in cuts He was just a little off And granted He was going against a defense

That is probably top top three defense in the league right now. When Carter wants to play hard, when Carter plays hard, it's hard to stop them. Phillips got a little sack daddy. He's happy. This guy goes from playing in freaking Miami

where they're trying to get a point in Madrid right now to play him for a championship caliber team, defense at least, with the Eagles. He's juiced up. Vic Vangio. I thought that was the matchup pregame. I talked about it on Fox. I said,

it's hard to bet against Philadelphia in a weather game in Philly against a dome team. I went against everything. Lions had a great game against the commanders the week before. But I do think that if Dan Campbell is calling plays, there's a little friction in that offense.

Yeah, it's in Washington, bro. You ain't playing against the commanders like last one. You're playing against Vic. Yeah. And I sat next to Vic after the Super Bowl that they won. Did you really? On the ride home to the hotel. Oh, my God.

I didn't know that. Guy had his briefcase. We let him out three blocks before, went home. I think he had like ordered room services with his wife, first Super Bowl. We let him out. People had no clue. It was Vic Van Joe. He's just walking out.

Man. I think he was starting to study for the draft. No way he's off. Vic is he's a serious coach and Cooper Dejean he's always around the football Blankin chip is tough Mitchell they got a really good secondary

they got a good complimentary defense Cooper had a pick that was nice We got to get going They got to find a way Like laying out is huge On the offensive line They're beat up on the offensive line I think Dickerson was out

Was he out? I think they were banged up Really banged up They can't run the ball And that's the thing Petulow Is that the offensive coordinator, Petulow? Yes.

They got to figure out some route concepts because it looks a lot of the same. Stop routes on the outside on third and long. Yeah, Kevin Petul. Stop routes on third down and long. Stop routes on the outside, third down. And I think the defense knows it, and they're just squatting on the routes on A.J. Brown.

He's also ran a lot of lazy routes too. My guy, yeah, he got to, we got to get better. We got to get over this. We need to have some leadership in that locker room, tighten it up. Because they have, like, their defense is really good right now, playing really good. Okay, before we wrap up, Jack, you want to, there's a dude, there's dudes, should we shout out some dudes? Yeah, let's shout out a dude. Shout out a couple dudes.

Shout out a couple dudes. How about a shout out Jacoby? In a loss. In a loss, loss. Completion record, though. 47 of 57, 40, 52 yards, two kids, two picks. The previous record held by our man, Drew Bledsoe, the game back in 1994. What did he go?

45 completions. Wow. And then Jared Gough tied it in 2019, 45 as well. Shout out Bryce Young. Another big day. Bryce Young. It's, oh, my bad. I just need,

quarterbacks don't get enough shine in this league. I would like to shout out Miles Garrett, who had four sacks. Fucking Miles Garrett. And he has 15 right now. 15 through week 11. How are we not talking more about the record being like in its sights? It's because the Browns are terrible. Yeah.

Dude, I always think he's in play for the record, even if he was down like five with like the last week. Literally. Also, Brian Burns isn't far off either. Burns has got like 13. Let me see. Meaningless. 12?

Meaningless, but like he's got 11 and a half. 13. 13. Yeah. So both those guys, I don't know if they're on pace. I don't know if he's on pace,

but Miles Garrett definitely is. He likes to collect him, right? He's had nine and two games. Anybody you were loving particularly yesterday, Jules, dude-wise? I'm going to give some shine to the bears. I like this. Ben Johnson and Caleb.

Caleb didn't have a great game. You could see he wanted, he's like, man, we had more skin on the boat. We had some more meat on the bone. We could have got, you know what I mean? Afterwards. But like, they got some juice going. And... Seven and three.

Seven and three. That division is quite open. You know, I think it's the run game. I think it's Tooney, Dahlman. Jackson, they get my game ball. Tune gets my game ball. Shout out, Joe. Joe Tune.

Look, it's a completely different team when you have an offensive line. Yeah. Completely different teams. Swift's going for a hundy. 90. Menongay's going for like a hundy. 19 or 23.

You know, we got hundies everywhere. 140 on the ground, 193 through the air. Pretty nice and balanced. Let's go, let's go balance. I like balance. Well, that's another recap. You have to think of a name to call this. We're calling it Nut House Recap internally.

No Cap Recap? Yeah. Oh! Oh, I like that. No cap recaps tight. I was thinking colder pizza this morning. Oh, dude, cold pizza, RIP. Great show.

No cap recap. I like to pretend. I want to bring the Nut House, the Nut House water cooler. I like we're just chopping it up around the water cooler, bro. It's got to get back to our cubicles after this. Monday morning slot receiver. I don't know. Coments.
