Welcome to the Greenlight podcast.
Cowboy.
We've got the week for a recap.
Chris Makin and Kyle go through every game on the Sunday slate.
We talk in depth on the Ravens bills and the decision to go forward on fourth down at the goal line for the Ravens.
The Packers Patriots game and Zappy coming in for Brian Hoyer.
We'll talk Eagles' Jags and how the Eagles came back after the Jags jumped them early.
And Chiefs' Bucks and how we all watch a little of that Mahomes magic.
Hey, y'all enjoy.
Guys, I'm going to start the show and give myself a best plane ride.
I'm giving out two plane rides, say one later, one right now.
A lot of turbulence on the way home.
Flew through a hurricane.
Yeah, yesterday.
A Lamborghini.
But I felt fucking great.
Not a single jolt on my L5S1.
I got a great chiropractor.
I want to shout him out.
Told him I was going to shout him out in the pod a couple weeks ago.
Totally fucking forgot.
Dr. Tickle is his name, Kyle.
Dr. Tickle, local legend.
I don't want you calling him.
I don't want you using him.
I don't want dad calling him.
I don't want dad using him.
I don't want you fucking up his schedule.
He's brilliant.
I think the cat's out of the bag on that one.
I think they're already frequenting Dr. Tickle.
You know, when I first met Dr. Tickle,
I legitimately just Googled Kairos,
and I was like, that guy's got a name.
Let's see if it holds up.
Let's see if you can tickle my spine and make me feel better.
And he has, man.
He's a great Cairo.
Shout out to Dr. Tickle to start the shows.
Yeah.
America's teams.
Are you all right?
Yeah, I have a lot of yelling.
I had to sing the fight song.
We'll talk about that after America's team.
You know, the Philly fans, they like to spell out Eagles.
I know they do.
It's awesome, though.
It's like practicing all the time.
When you really buy into it, yeah.
Yeah, it's a lot of fun.
It's a lot of fun.
So my voice is a little fucked up.
I'll explain that.
America's teams, why don't we start there?
Number one, the Philadelphia,
Eagles, man, the only undefeated team in football. That's some chalky shit. But that was fun
yesterday. I mean, it was a lot of fun. So I mean, that that was, that's my number one,
shocker there. Number two, the Kansas Jayhawks. I guarantee you they're in both of your top
five. Be a clean suite. How could they not be, dude? Game day going to Lawrence. Can you hit us
with the list? I'd be happy to. There are only seven teams now that have not hosted college football
game day. We are one.
we are one of the power five conferences needless to say yeah yeah let's include fucking hofstra
and stuff cal duke illinois maryland rutgers syracuse virginia illinois surprising who are you
that's who we are who are you most shocked at being on that list uh Maryland usually throws in a
good year once a decade Syracuse too remember the fridge Illinois
EJ Henderson told me he used to eat soup and just like he'd go in there
E.J. Henderson, one of my buddies played at Maryland,
he was like, yo, when I'd go in there to meet with the fridge,
he'd just be drinking his soup.
And he'd just have soup all over his turn of the century,
Nike, you know, the way they used to have those coaches,
the jackets that make noise were windbreakers, I guess.
Yeah, he'd just be clam chowder all over the Q's up.
He'd just be meeting with his players,
clam chowder on the Q's up.
I have a story similar to that.
I took my visit to know.
Notre Dame and the coach there was.
One of America's teams.
The coach there was.
Charlie Weiss.
Diet Coke.
Oh, yeah, these coaches love.
Like a sixer.
Yeah, these coaches love Diet Coke.
It's just burping it up.
Well, also Charlie Weiss got on the radio.
He's amazing.
When you take a visit and the guy's crushing Diet Coke,
you're like, this guy is all football.
Yeah, he's all ball.
He's all ball.
Okay, so number two is Kansas.
Lawrence is getting a game day.
Number three, Kyle, no offense here.
Orlando Brown.
Joe Tuny or Thuney, however you say that.
How do you say that?
Tune.
Joe Tune.
Okay.
So, Creed Humphrey, know how to say that.
Trey Smith and Andrew Wiley.
That's, that, Kyle, shout out to your guys, dude.
Oh, okay.
Shout out to your guys.
Shout out to those guys.
And shout out to Andy Heck.
Yeah, dude, that's America's team.
They're all made better by Andy Heck, and, you know, they're all like the Infinity
stones.
They're good on their own, but, man, when you put them all together.
What's an infinity stone?
I just know that Thanos has them and everybody's in trouble.
Never seen that fucking.
movie.
I have to nod along with all the memes.
Thanos is what?
Thanos is Mahomes in that situation.
Yeah, he is Mahomes.
So, and these guys are, are these his infinity stones?
They are.
Yeah, dude, that kind of works.
Okay.
And then number four, I'll go with the bills because they won this week.
They're, uh, they're the bills.
And then five, Mississippi Department of Human Services investigated by the state's attorney
general office and the FBI.
Or?
Brett Fav.
That's a versus.
I want those guys to get to the bottom of this.
So they are one of America's teams.
Look, just because Southern Miss volleyball
looks like they're playing in Jerry World
doesn't mean there's anything nefarious going on.
They show up one year and there's just Ford trucks
in the behind the end zone there.
They don't have an end zone, but.
Y'all are wearing wranglers spinning on fucking
Mississippi State's famous for the scaffolding,
like behind their outfield wall at their baseball field.
I'm seeing if they can keep it ratchet at their brand new state-of-the-art facility.
No, they're not.
They're not.
Do you know what's going on with that?
I've skimmed some headlines.
Okay, yeah.
And if these guys can get to the bottom of it, that would be great.
They're one of my America's teams.
Make you up.
Kansas Jayhawks wins over Tennessee Tech, West Virginia, Houston, Duke.
Nobody runs on Duke.
And most recently, Iowa State, Jayhawks,
who ranked number 19 in the country.
They will host TCU,
number 17 in the country on Saturday.
Game Day will be in the house.
Air Force.
Nobody in the world spends more money on its military
than the United States of America.
And it showed Saturday with Air Force
porting up 356 yards of total offense
and route to a 1310 win
over the midshipment of Navy.
Kyle, do you know who won the Air Force Navy game on Saturday?
I would assume that nobody really won
that could meet again.
Air Force, right, Air Force 13 to 10.
Air Force quarterback, Hizek Daniels, was 6 for 8 through the air.
So that's a little bit of a...
Yeah, I saw him against Wyoming.
You know, more like ground force.
Ground force, yeah, for sure.
They're like UPS.
I didn't know if the Air Force had tanks.
Exactly.
The New York Football Giants.
I guess you could have gone Army there.
I went UPS.
The New York Football Giants.
Yeah.
for really all the reasons you mentioned the Buffalo Bills,
they won, red, white, and blue.
But they wore the sick unies.
They wore the mismatch helmet shirt.
It works.
Yeah.
And they ran the Wildcat for crying out loud out of necessity.
The only way you should be running the Wildcat.
Can you guys briefly tell me about the game?
I know you're doing it right now, but don't hold back.
Because I did not see the game travel and, you know,
other things that were more important.
Sorry about it, Kyle.
I was looking at my list.
I missed all that.
DJ got hurt.
The Bears,
the Bears and the Giants.
Terad got hurt.
Sequin was forced into action
to run the Wildcat.
Bro, he ran for like 200.
Sequin ran for 98 yards
in the first possession and a half
for the Giants.
And it was like, holy shit,
we either need to figure out
how to get Khalil Herbert
past the line of scrimmage
or Justin Fields
needs to throw the football.
Now, Kyle, to me,
he was taking sacks.
Justin Field was dropping back,
there were guys open. Mooney was running naked down the field.
Jihad Ward, right?
Fucking Holy War on Justin Fields.
And Justin Fields is absolutely...
Jihad had a good game?
He's, dude, he's balling this year. I love Jihad Ward, man.
Chris, dear in the headlights, Justin Fields in the pocket.
You would think a guy like that that's not comfortable in the pocket feels comfortable
tucking it and running, like it's more where he's natural or whatever.
It just doesn't even look that way.
He looks to be second-guessing his cuts.
The guy who makes too many cuts in the open field doesn't know what he's doing.
A one-cut guy is dangerous.
Can I read you something you wrote yesterday about Justin Fields?
Yeah.
I'm still fascinated with and love and in love with Justin Fields' talents.
Talents.
He slung a ball down the field yesterday and threw it over everybody.
Sounds like you're doing a little straddling, Kyle.
Are you on or off the field bus?
Justin knows how to – I'm on the field's bus, and I think –
doesn't sound that way.
I think that they need to do more under center with him,
because when they have a running back like Khalil Herbert,
when they can get in the eye formation,
they can involve Kari Blasing game,
their fullback number 35.
That offensive line knows how to get people blocked.
There's hats on hats.
Cole Commet is a good young blocker at tight end.
I think when you have a running back room like that and an athletic quarterback can get to the
edge, you need to threaten the front seven of the defense, force their eyes and their bodies
into gap integrity.
You can sneak a guy like Justin Fields out the backside.
And that's what they're not doing right now.
And I'm frustrated.
I don't know who the blame is on because I'm not in those meetings.
Frustradish.
But Justin Fields, obviously, in college, he's throwing to all Americans.
He's got all-American protection.
Everybody lights it up in a seven-on-seven camp at quarterback.
But in the NFL, you need to do things within complimentary offense,
and they're not doing that for him in Chicago.
I don't know if it's his not his unwillingness to feel comfortable there
or the offensive coordinator's unwillingness to get him into comfortable positions.
Sir, this is an America's team.
All Americans like you say, sir, this is a Wendy's?
Like in college?
This is an America's team.
Vellis Jones?
I have to watch the Bears every week.
I know, Kyle.
I know how you feel when I had to watch my other former teams,
and they've sucked.
Your team sucks.
Like, it's just going to be a long year, Kyle.
But what I'm saying is you got to either, you got to, you know.
I'm on the Justin Fields train.
Right now you seem like the guy in saving Silverman where he's like,
I've been saying it since the beginning.
I'm 100% on the Justin Fields train,
but I'm also 100% on the,
I'm going to bitch about this until it looks better.
Okay, I'm not.
Because I'm just blindly on the Justin Fields train.
I don't need any evidence.
He's tall.
We give other tall quarterbacks a bunch of chances.
My thing is like, let's give this tall quarterback a chance.
Let's give him more than a year and a half in fucking Vietnam out there.
First Miller-Light mention of the day goes to Jamie Gillen.
He's the Scottish hammer.
He's the punter for the New York Giants.
Booms one to Velas Jones who drops it.
Oh, yeah, V Scottish.
Went to Arkansas Pine Bluff.
I would just sit with him at lunch and listen to him talk.
From Scotland to Pine Bluff, Arkansas College now in the Big Apple of East Rutherford, New Jersey.
Yeah.
So he booms one to Bella Jones, who drops it seals the game you would think.
Mr. Reliable Graham Ganoe misses a field goal at the end.
And then Chicago runs a sick 22 lateral.
45 second play.
Oh, it was awesome.
Really?
I love those.
A 45 second play.
Please.
Somebody pull that up for me while we talk.
Justin Fields through a dime, but it was 30 yards behind the line of scrimmage and across the field.
He went from numbers to numbers on a rope.
He had to do it in the hands, and I'm like, we need to design more of those.
Yeah, let's do more desperation plays.
All I'm saying is we've seen a lot of quarterbacks,
and I'm not comparing Justin's skill set to any of the guys that made it.
Like, he still has to prove out.
But, I mean, he's got some tantalizing physical abilities, as you outlined in your tweet.
I would just like to see us give him the same chance.
And I know it's frustrating to watch at times,
but they just did not invest in his success this year.
So I just want to give him a shot.
That's all.
New York Giants, three and one of my America's teams.
They're headed to London, England.
Yeah.
All these games are in London, yeah?
Yes.
Which is a nice segue to my fourth America's team.
They're different stadiums.
Which is England.
Yeah.
England, which comes.
cut the double doink. Yeah, they did. For one. There's bad officiating. Like we got a lot of that over here.
The crowd was into it more so than over here. They're really doing American football better than we do it.
And a game of footy broke out. That's exactly right. This is the smartest thing the NFL could have done was just a bunch of fucking kicks.
Greg Joseph was five for five. They got a 60-yarder from Will Lutz. They got a miss at the end from Will Lutz and the double doink. However, I don't understand.
and synthetic turf.
And maybe you people can help me out with this.
I can't.
Let me just read to something.
The Hotspur Stadium.
It is the first and only stadium outside North America
that is specifically designed for NFL games.
The club intentionally designed the fields
so that it could host American football games
for years to come.
Okay.
It's the world's first dividing retractable American football field
underground.
The club is able to disconnect the soccer pitch
and retract the individual sections out of sight.
Once those steps are taken,
It reveals a synthetic football field underneath.
Here's where my question comes in.
To keep the hidden football field in proper shape,
the club uses built-in LED lights,
automated mowers and irrigation year-round.
Mowers and irrigation for a fake football field?
Yeah, it doesn't make sense.
So, like, are all these fields getting watered with the rubber pellets?
Let's talk about golf.
You know, let's talk about how much unnecessary watering of golf courses are around the world.
Kyle, you're one of the biggest.
Hold on.
Yeah, but that's grass.
Hold on. Hold on. Hold on.
That's Bermuda and Georgia.
Yeah, you need to be able to take a little earth with your swing.
Kyle, golf courses are a suck on mother earth.
Holy shit.
This is America's team.
Let's not be blasphemous here.
Why are we watering fake fields?
That is the good question.
Why are we mowing?
Electricity lights.
Correct.
What are we doing here?
Golf guy over here throwing stones at the hot spur stadium.
No, no.
Why are we growing turf?
Why are we lighting, mowing, and watering, synthetic turf?
So that you'll talk about it on a podcast.
It's a big, it's a big, you know, like when a guy has a cool thing at their house and you come over and they explain the fuck out of it, like, you know, this is how this works.
Wow.
This is my truck.
That's kind of how they are.
Like that's a solid 15 minute walk around the field for, for a shareholder.
Thank you.
And they go, oh, it is a shareholder discussion.
Oh, we can't write off our gambling losses, by the way.
They had a CPA jump into the DMs, yeah.
Thank you.
His explanation was likely good.
I didn't follow it, but we can get into that another time.
Was it sketchy at best?
I trust CPAs.
America's teams, Kansas, Air Force, New York Giants, England,
and I'll wrap up with the University of Mississippi, which is 5 and O.
They wore a weird helmet.
They allowed Kentucky to cover, which I appreciated.
And while I can't articulate why rebels is problematic in this country,
I can't articulate why old miss is problematic, but I guarantee it is.
Probably.
It just has to be.
Couple Googles.
So I think we're likely a decade away from the University of Mississippi Land Sharks.
Yeah, yeah.
Surprise it hasn't happened in the last few years.
I thought those helmets were interesting, man.
Mississippi mud butts.
It's kind of like that'd be good.
That'd be real good.
It's kind of like something happened.
Like they got mixed up in the wash with like a bunch of blue raspberry slurpees.
It kind of reminded me of a fucking.
beer, you know, like a closet at a gas station where you walk in and all of a sudden,
it's like, holy shit, it's cold. Like, that's what the helmets look like to me.
A little frosty. Yeah, like a little frosty. Like I was trying to find like an exotic
locker in the back of a fucking quick trip. Listen to the names on this offense. Jackson
Dart. That's good. Jonathan Mingo.
Quinn Sean Judkins. That one's good.
Ole Miss. America's team.
Lane train got a little conservative there at the end,
but the defense bailed him out.
What a play to finish that game.
Hey, here's one thing I heard seven times this weekend.
And I'm not saying Lane Kibben said this.
Hey, he didn't play well, and he'll be the first to tell you that.
Well, coach, you were just the first to tell us that.
Yeah, no, yeah, you beat him to the punch.
What if a player was like, well, he didn't coach, well,
I'll be the first to tell you that.
Coaches cannot stand being accountability coming from anybody but themselves.
they are the yeah they're the biggest on accountability that's my job yeah that's my job he didn't
play his best and i'm going to be the first to tell you yeah well that might just be a personal
thing because i never noticed that but that's pretty it that's that makes sense is that five
that's five call longs america's teams him me with your america's team thing and thank you guys
for being patient with me oh patient i'm starting off with the patriots obviously fucking mel
gipson's back and uh so is zappy and zappi's parents didn't even know he was going to be
playing or dressing or even in the game.
So he was in the game.
Were they there?
Patriots. Probably not, Chris.
Probably not. Realistically.
Hollow man, his parents, if they weren't there.
Realistically, they probably weren't there.
I'm going to just say that was big.
Zappi was a Western Kentucky Hilltopper.
That's right.
That's right.
Chris, you play A.A.U.
Do you remember when we had free reign,
14-year-old year,
dad funded an A.U baseball team.
He said, you get to pick the name of the team
and the uniforms.
We went black and teal, and we were the hilltoppers.
There you go.
So that's my first America's team.
Really, there's two there.
Hilltoppers.
But Old Miss, you know, I know we have overlap there,
but I'm talking about their Kappa Alpha fraternity.
That's America's team because they had a guys that were fighting.
They had a UFC fight at a football game,
and they were well-dressed, there was team uniforms, everything,
and they were throwing them things up there.
And them things don't hurt.
It was fun.
I got jumped at a frat-house once.
I walked out of that motherfucker,
I was like,
did something happen?
Punch is hurt, man.
If a kid hits you...
Like 14 people hitting me in the face,
if a 23-year-old hits you in the face,
I don't care what Greek society are part of.
They hurt when guys like that hit you.
They don't hurt.
Punch is hurt.
So my second America's team that's not yours
is Wake Forest,
the Demon Deacons.
I want to talk about the scariest mascot,
okay?
Demon Deacon's.
They beat Florida State.
No longer,
I can't say unconquered
because that's their tribal model.
the Seminole Indians,
but I'm going to say the Florida State Seminoles,
the football team is no longer unbeaten.
Yeah.
And it's because of the Demon Deacon.
Yeah.
And if you really do a deep dive
and look at the the Demon Deacon's mascot,
it's the scariest fucking thing I've ever seen in my life.
Have you seen Providence?
Deacon, that just sounds racist.
Have you seen the Providence?
Yeah, it does sound racist.
And then you throw a demon behind it.
We need to look into that.
Deacon?
We know, dude.
But chance of there's been some racist deacons.
me out. I'm stupid. I'm not, I'm not educated folk. It's a church guy. Yeah, well. It's not like the church
has ever done anything wrong. Don't get me started, making it. You're not wrong. I do love the
mascot. The Missouri Tigers is, we're going to put a poll out. Is the, is the demon deacons
a racist mask guy? He just, he just looks it. Just look at him. Well, sure. Okay, so the Missouri
Tigers, Chase Daniel was like, hey, if we beat Georgia, I'm buying drinks for everybody at the bar. Big Cat
also match the offer.
obviously thinking it was like it's Georgia, they're not going to win.
And then it was a close fucking game.
And then you end up seeing the big kicker, big hefty,
that was fun.
Big heavy, healthy kicker.
Yeah.
Making a big shot there and a nice little Rick Flair almost.
Yeah, I don't know what it was.
Off the field.
I'm going to call that for lack of a better term.
Yeah, sauce.
A lot of sauce there.
I'm going to say, what did I say?
Oh, Minnesota Vikings.
You said London.
I'm just going to say Minnesota Vikings.
How many kids are going to be born named Kirk?
none in London
none
none dude
in nine months
no no no they're gonna name
or lutsi or uh
you know what they really do love their football
it sounds like the Super Bowl out there
I mean and they cheer you were talking about this earlier
like they cheer
all the time oh the kickoff
that's what I love about like London
it's they're just fucking excited about football
sometimes you look around at a home stadium
when you're state side and you're like
why is there no fucking energy here can the only people that
come, only the people that can afford to come here is just going to be quiet.
You know, real fans are at home screaming at the TV because it's so fucking expensive to go to
games, at least in Chicago it was.
Yeah, well, in London, they're excited.
And the Vikings are 3 in London, by the way.
So, I mean, that they do this.
One last America's team.
Oh, gosh.
USC Trojans.
Yeah.
A bit of nostalgia there making when I'm watching this new look Trojans team under Lincoln
Riley.
Yeah.
Every other guy that's making a play is a transfer from somewhere.
It's like, you know, they're back to buying.
Virginia, yeah.
Virginia, not a receiver.
You say that, but we actually threw to him as left tackle.
That's the, and you got, that was the job.
Hey, guys, how about that 15 lateral play in the Bears game?
You see, you've seen it now.
Yeah, I have.
No, I haven't.
Oh, you still haven't.
No, nobody put it up.
Can you?
Can you?
I should have said it twice.
Can either you say Kirk in a British accent?
No, you can't.
I think the, oh, that's pretty good.
I think the most British name on that Vikings roster is probably Dalvin.
Dalvin, Madison.
Yeah.
By the way, I want to say this right now before we get into the Philly game, the Philly trip.
Yeah.
Before we get into the Philly trip.
Dalton looks better than James because he's,
he's healthy and because you just feel like you maybe trust him a little bit more.
You haven't, there's not as much like trauma watching James throw 50, 50 balls over the years,
but make no mistake about it.
Their problems are not solved.
They are not solved.
I mean, like, I don't think they had, they didn't have points for, they didn't have first down for
almost like 20 minutes and then they, they had seven points about midway through the third.
So it's not like they're a hell of a lot better, but at least they're stable.
And then I do want to say this about that game too.
That call, the Honey Badger, Hands of the Face Call,
was absolutely bogus and cost me money.
Now I pushed on that bet, but I feel like that call was so bad,
I want some money back.
And then Thielen, Thielen got away with a face mask on the PI down at the goal line.
Well, we got the, it really is the, it's Great Britain's team.
Yep.
They're Great Britain's team, dude.
We got the Justin Fields.
Okay, I got the 45-second lateral play here.
Now, I love this because you know my biggest pet peeve in football making
is when people get tackle with the football at the end of regulation.
Look at this ball.
Just throw the ball.
Why's this ball he throws?
Kyle, how can you not be a believer after seeing that?
So talented.
How can you not be a believer after seeing that throw?
And look at this throw.
Is that Pettus?
Now here's where's the goal.
Petits even on that team?
Okay, yeah, yeah.
Lucas Patrick on the ground just like,
Tevin Jenkins.
Bro, you got a real shot here.
That was a great last.
I had to get it to Mooney.
That was the, bro, that was the one.
But they're not done just yet.
Oh my God, the play's still going on.
There's clown noises.
Paul and Cruz is on the field.
Okay.
And Daniel Jones has a bowl cut, huh?
They just put a bowl on that thing.
What's going on with that, dude?
Lloyd Christmas.
Every deep playoff run starts with building an amazing team.
Doing the same for your business doesn't take a room full of scouts.

Bro, by the way, I felt like you yesterday.
I had to be down on the field right and we're about to talk about Philly.
And it was windy as fuck.
I mean like torrential downpour, windy as fuck.
fuck. I obviously didn't
get my hair in a good
place. Had to take my hat off for the anthem, right?
Oh no. And the thing's blowing around
like a fucking toupee, man.
You know, when you feel it like
and you're like, damn, I hope nobody takes a picture
of me standing next to Fletch right now
looking like the guy on something
about Mary.
I mean, honestly, dude, I totally felt for you
because you know how you're always like you want your hair
to be perfect like a Lego man.
Correct. Like you want Lego man hair.
That's why I just took the Lego
man.
and off yeah yeah that's good it was really good so the weather was terrible in philly it was awful um
the the hurricane came up to philly and that's why my uh my my layup line is hallie berry by hurricane
christ did you know that's the rapper's name king chris yeah so i was i brought the rain up there
and it was ugly bro and uh i got to tell you i forgot how fucking cold we are on the field dude
i got down there and i was shaking a little bit dude you know i've dropped a little weights
So, but it was freezing.
That first cool of the year is like to the bones.
Oh, it was to the bone.
You want soup, right?
You want to hang out with the fridge.
I want some chunky soup.
But it was fun.
Friday night got up there, got really drunk with Bo.
He wore me out.
You know, Connor Barwin, Bo.
Connor drove his fucking bicycle to the bar.
He really does live that life.
Dude, he's about that life.
He's not a poser.
That's a helmet and everything.
Had his helmet under his arm at the bar.
That's incredible.
Yeah, like he really is that guy, dude.
Love Connor, love Bo.
That's my viewing part of.
Did he lock up his bike?
Was there a bike lock?
There was a bike lock.
Fishtown, Philly.
Had the fish and Fish Town is pretty good.
How many hours was a helmet under his arm?
I don't know.
As long as we were at the bar, dude, and we stayed a while.
So we had a great time.
I met a lot of green light listeners at the tailgate Sunday morning.
Shout out to Joe Maycoid, especially Kyle.
He was out there in the rain.
The best.
Bringing the energy, getting the selling raffle.
tickets. He was on the mic?
Of course he got on the mic, dude.
If you've never heard Joe make what at the tailgate.
We'll have to have him on the pod sometime.
Incredible.
Yeah, I'm going to get a text right as this drops.
Yes.
So it was good.
We raised a lot of money.
We had fun.
I got out Friday night.
I love being back in Philly every time.
I got a hug from Doug.
It was a great hug.
I met Ryan Philippi.
Wow.
Which is news to me that you say like Philip.
Good pronunciation, too.
Yeah, thank you.
I appreciate it.
Of McGruber fame.
and other films, but he's an Eagles fan.
So he said he wants to come on the pod.
Stop.
Yeah, we're going to get him on the pod.
Handsome, son of a bitch.
Two is a big fan.
Is two a big fan?
Yeah, yeah.
The film McGruber is.
That's what I heard.
I heard.
Nobody panic.
He's laughing at McGruber.
I couldn't tell if that was a parody tweet.
Yeah.
I really couldn't.
It was not a parody tweet.
Well, now that you say it, I don't know.
I'm not sure.
Well, so the tweet was,
that Mike McDaniels had said,
we were laughing watching McGruber on the way home,
which makes me like to even more.
It's hard not to like two of the person.
It's amazing.
You know?
Hearing those words come out of your mouth,
that could not have been a serious quote.
A lot of people were like, yeah,
when I had a concussion, you're not supposed to watch any TV
or see any bright lights, but evidently,
the literature has evolved on that,
and you can watch McGruber on the way home on the plane.
But it was just a ridiculous.
But he didn't have a concussion.
No.
And it's an ongoing investigation.
It's, yeah, yeah, yeah.
We're not doctors has been the new rallying cry of the, uh, some of the media.
And the doctor who cleared them is no longer a doctor.
Yeah, yeah.
There's a bunch people not being doctors.
Oh, man.
Yeah, yeah.
So anyways, uh, we got to get Ryan on the pod.
Uh, I, they got jumped, man.
They were down 14.
Nothing.
And honestly, with the rain, I said this couldn't play out any worse for them.
Because, you know, when you, when you, when you're, when you're, you spot somebody,
two scores, you're probably going to have to throw the ball a little bit.
And the game plan, to me, was to keep the ball out of the quarterback's hands on both sides
of the field.
It's like, there's no need.
You got some great positive momentum with Jalen Hertz.
There's no need to go out and have a game where there's a couple of turnovers because
a wet ball.
Now, you did finally get a bad break for him.
He threw a pick early.
Pick six.
I was walking to the bathroom.
I was in the main time course.
Chip drill to start the game.
And I could hear the fucking, you know, when you're walking to the bathroom.
Going out.
People are fucking pissed.
Just, just beating.
up the urinals. Like, people are
upset. And that's what I said. I mean, my
first note when watching that was like
strange things happen in spooky
games with weather,
particularly at home.
It's like you've had that feeling where the team
the game starts in an ominous fashion
like a tip drill. It gets quiet. And it's like
fuck, the energy that we just
stored up for five, six days is now
sucked out of the stadium. You have to manufacture
it. And I wrote the
turning point as Jacksonville
up 14-7, Mile
Sanders scores on the right side, on an inside zone behind Lane Johnson, which is a real
vanilla block for offensive line, and a playside drive. It's one you're not expected to dominate,
but I made a note, all caps, Lane Johnson dominated his block, playside drive. That was the
emphatic tide coming back in and turning for the Eagles I had. And obviously, a lot of the wet
weather stuff was... I got a note. I don't want my right tackle half-assing a playside drive.
A lot of guys do because for those at home that don't understand, running backs like to press the ball front side.
Running backs like to press the ball to the front side to influence the linebackers and get defensive linemen to play into their gaps.
And then they go backside.
That's where it opens up right behind the center, right guard, left guard.
That little area is where it's going to open up.
Good running backs understand that.
But good teams with great right tackles can just say keep it front side, run it behind lane.
It's like high school football.
Speaking of back sides.
Yeah.
My first note that I wrote out here was she had dumps like a truck, truck, truck,
thighs like what, what, what, what.
Let me see the butt, butt, but.
I think I'll see it again.
Cisco had the pick six to make it 14.
He did.
Yeah.
Cisco had the pick six.
Kyle, I'll give you another turning point.
That was good.
I'll give you another turning point.
So you get the pick six.
You get an 80-yard drive.
And then you go fourth and three.
I think you had stopped.
You know, it could be wrong here.
but I think Fletch had the force fumble that set up their first scoring drive.
I mean, they got a chance down 14, nothing at home to really hear the boo-birds.
I heard some booze early in that game.
I mean, it's a 3-0 team.
I think Lawrence just fumbled it by himself, like running.
Does he have small hands?
I'm asking that a lot about guys.
A lot of hair product in his hand, maybe from the night before.
I don't think he has small hair.
Well, no, Kyle.
Well, you mixed that with rain.
And it's like,
Herc and Ian in and around his hands.
Might as well be K-Y.
Just all day, dude.
No,
but I mean,
that was the whole thing with Trevor Lawrence was, you know,
and the Jags.
They had been really good in the turnover department.
And,
you know,
there were minus three yesterday.
So that luck had to run out.
He has huge hands.
Yeah, 10 inches.
Well, what the fuck are we doing?
Hold on to the football.
10 inches.
How big is 10 inches?
How big are your hands, Kyle?
How big is 10 inches making?
How big are your hands, Kyle?
Uh,
Tip to tip, 11.
You got an 11-inch hand?
Yeah.
They need to put you in a quarterback.
Pinky to hear.
Yeah, that's a hurricane quarterback.
Yeah, so it was all about turnovers, man.
I mean, like, Hassan Reddick, we were talking about this force.
Two of them picked up two of them.
That was a big game for him.
Strip sack in the fourth quarter.
Takeaway for the defense.
Another one.
When they needed a touchdown to put the game out of reach with nine minutes left,
they brought a puller.
They ran basic stuff offensively.
I love the faith they have in their offensive line, particularly in big spots.
They don't have to put the pressure on Jalen.
He doesn't have to be perfect and make a perfect throw to Goddard down there in the goal line,
and he didn't.
But they have the offensive line to make up for that,
especially in those tight areas of the field.
Yeah, no, I mean, like they got punched in the mouth, man.
That was the bottom line.
It was like you were waiting for Philly to have to respond to some adversity.
Jacksonville's a good team.
You knew it.
It was a big atmosphere with Doug coming back.
Agnew had a big game, by the way.
Meg knew it all along.
Yeah, Agnew it all along.
Meg's fantasy team, poor gal.
I'm like, I walked to the seats because I was down on the field and then had to walk up
and I was like, Meg, did you see that Agnew?
Agnew's bawling out.
She was like, I didn't even set up, but didn't even put in my lineup.
So they ran the rock for over 200.
And here's a big one.
You know, we just talked about Hassan Reddick, but Bradbury with a huge pick late.
Bradbury with a huge pick late.
And Reddick's stepping up with that close or with 12 minutes ago.
I mean, like the new guy's stepping up.
Guys that have been there stepping up, they are a good football team.
I don't know, like at this point, and I know I had the Niners in the Super Bowl,
but it's hard to really, it's hard to say that anybody's better in the NFC right now.
And I'm not trying to be a home, or I wanted to wait for them to get punched in the mouth to say that.
Again, look at the rest of their schedule.
They're going to be favored in most of their games, if not all.
So, yeah, the birds are good, and Kelsey got Doug's jacket at the end of the game,
which was heartwarming shit.
My heart was full.
That was cool.
My heart was really full there.
Took him a while to get it over his wrist.
It's always hard to get the jersey off.
I imagine the jacket's a lot easier.
He's guys got big wrists.
Big wrist, wet.
Yeah.
I got a wet big wrist.
Easy now.
I wrote QB sneak heaven because there was a lot of fourth and ones,
fourthing goals and, you know,
three ones, a lot of QB sneaks,
a lot of faith in the O line.
These are the type of games I love to watch.
I hate when guys are trying to gadget and dial up shit
when it's just like let our athletes have the ball and run it.
Shall we discuss the final fourth and three?
Because the Eagles were up 29, 21.
I understand it's raining.
But Jake Elliott, they eschewed the Jake Elliott
39-yard field goal to put it away.
And instead did not pick up the fourth and three
giving the ball back to Jacksonville and Trevor fumbles for the final time.
Bad call, I say.
You say bad call.
From Nick Siriani.
Yeah, but you just said great.
I feel like people would have said great call.
By the way, Nick Siriani tall.
Oh, how tall?
Really tall.
My height.
Six-three.
I think we looked eye-to-eye, three-hase.
Six-three and three-eighth.
You guys kind of want to wrestle, like when you look to high-to-eye?
No.
Ressler kiss.
No, no, no.
I wanted to hug him.
I wanted to hug the guy.
He just had great energy.
Not an option.
Kiss.
Oh, Kyle.
I wanted to hug the guy, dude.
He's got the birds four and O now.
He's tall.
He's got great energy.
Love it.
And he let my family come by the facility.
and kind of walk around.
I got to see some of my old,
old buddies.
That's awesome.
I got to,
you know,
kind of convince my kids
that I had a job
before I was a podcaster,
and they got to see that.
So it was a cool weekend, man.
So shout out to the Eagles,
man,
great organization.
They take care of their alums.
And they're four and oh.
Hey, Washington, Dallas,
Carson simultaneously kind of,
the straw that broke the camel's back.
Can we say that anymore?
Is that a,
kosher?
Was that game, is that kind of it?
Like, have we just seen enough now?
I feel like collectively, and this guy was leading the league in yards for like a week
or two.
He was on all the graphics.
And Reed and I were talking about it last night.
He was getting texts from some of his buddies who were like Washington fans that they were
like, I am over this.
And, you know, it's early in the season to be late for Carson Wentz.
I don't know that he lasts the next, I don't know, call it two weeks.
He screwed up the stinky line.
Stinky line in the week, three and a half points.
yeah i know yeah oh yeah yeah it did stink stinky line watchers were all on the commies the contenders
stinky yeah yeah i don't know how you can go out and watch the the commanders and say that you're
gonna put any faith of them regardless of a line like it's pretty it's pretty depressing i think uh
i think at some point there's probably going to be a quarterback presence of stevie wonder the
you know the internal clock efficiency of a ray charles something that doesn't have a clock
I guess. There's clocks everywhere, though.
So, yeah, basically, you know, as that scenes unfolding and Doug's, you know,
hug given Jalen Hertz a hug, and, you know, like on the other screen, you know,
if you're sitting at home, you got Carson and the commanders, that experiment kind of going awry.
You can't help but think, golly, even if you doubted Howie and them,
even if drafting Jalen Hertz precipitated, is that the word, topical word.
precipitated, you know, the decline of Carson Wentz mentally,
because I think a lot of it is mental for him.
You know, he's got talent.
He just, you know, he's been through a lot.
I was talking to somebody this weekend.
I don't know if I would have been okay after the Nick Foles thing, dude.
Think about how fucking most people are like, oh, get over it.
Most guys we know are not getting over that.
You know, you think it's your team.
You get hurt.
Nick Foles comes in.
Next thing you know, there's a statue.
you and you're an indie getting run out of the building.
This is his last chance, and I think it's probably over.
And I'm glad you bring up the mental side of it.
And obviously, I don't know what Carson's going through,
but each one of us that have played the game know that it's the most anxiety-inducing,
fear-inducing thing that you could ever do,
at least within professional sports outside of combat sports.
So each one of these guys has, from Carson Wentz to the 53rd guy on the roster,
has mental stuff that he's dealing with.
And you can weaponize yourself if you really work on it.
And it's something that I regret not doing as a player.
I feel like I could have been a more effective teammate.
Turning into a weapon.
Weaponizing your mind, the same way that we lift weights,
the same way that we train our hearts and our cardiovascular system,
the same way that we're training our minds with playbook and installation.
And I'm happy to see an influx of guys like you bringing it up.
He needs to listen to more podcasts.
The mental side's big, bro, and sometimes you need to let some air out a little bit in order to be you.
No, I just, you know, I think we both were pretty strong-minded cats.
Like, I don't know if I could have handled what Carson went through.
I'm just being real.
Like, you know, I say that.
Maybe I could because you never know until you're in that situation.
But I think most people who have kind of thumb their nose at, hey, this is, you know, all big, big shit.
Like, get over it.
Like, hey, that's a major event in your life.
And health stuff.
He's dealt with health stuff.
Yeah, on top of it.
So, I mean, I'm not, listen, not making excuses.
The guy, as I've said time and time again, it's his decision,
whether he wants to take care of the football or, you know,
or kick the stubborn habits, but, you know, here we are.
And on the other field up north, Philly is getting the job done
with the new guy that replaced him.
So it's a cold game, man.
It's a cold fucking game, dude.
And how he's doing it at a, you know, below the market price for that quarterback,
and he's able to spend on other guys.
And now you're seeing how he's got a sucker.
third best NDP odds.
New Orleans pick.
You know, that's going to the Eagles, and that keeps getting better, right?
That's wild, man.
I mean, they are stacking them up.
You'd be like, they should, the way that team is constructed right now, I feel like
they should be like the Rams.
You know, they have so many players that they nabbed from other teams and free agency
and trades that are good players.
They're not like, why did Tennessee get rid of AJ Brown?
Why did fucking New York, sorry making, get rid of Brow?
Adj. Brown looks great in that uniform.
There's all types of guys that are showing up and playing well,
and you'd be like, how do they put this super team together?
It's like a mini super team.
There's not a bunch of superstars,
but when you add up all the eights on that team,
it's not an S-Tier, it's an A-tier.
Whatever that means.
It's like one less than elite.
We should start doing tiers for America's team.
S-A-B-C-D-E, right?
Yeah.
Most importantly, what do we think about this uniform?
The Washington, the black uniform?
I thought R-G-3 had a great tweet and an idea where he said,
Bring the burgundy on where the gold is.
Oh, God, I thought you're going to say the Antonio Brown Dick tweet.
We're not there yet.
Save it.
Okay.
Swap the yellow and the red.
Swap the yellow and the red.
I don't think we'd be able to see anything.
You would be able to see a dark red, a dark red number with a piped yellow outline.
Okay.
You would avoid, as RG3 said, the Steelers.
I got an idea.
Where the fucking throwbacks without the race's stuff on the helmet?
Jersey, right?
Wear the fucking throwbacks without the racist stuff.
With the W on there.
Just put a W on there, dude.
I will say, as weird as this looks,
especially in a rivalry game with two storied franchises,
if you're going to try to look like a Big 12 team,
they did a good job of that.
Yeah, they do look Big 12y.
Look like they should be playing in Jerry's world.
They look like a Friday Night Lights movie team.
Or, yeah.
Yes.
They look like Dallas Carter.
Yes.
No, they look like a movie.
It's a movie.
They legitimately, it's stolen valor.
They're trying to look like a military team.
They're trying to look like one of the.
The U.S.
Army All-American team.
Yeah, they should do like a new branch of the military just popped up and started
playing football.
Yeah.
Dan Snyder's, his subpoena evading Coast Guard.
You know, like, do you know where he is right now, by the way?
He's still on his yacht.
Being protected by the Coast Guard?
Yeah, his big yacht, dude.
Is he still in Croatia?
Is that why?
That's, no. Bill looked great.
Yeah, I thought that was Photoshopped, by the way.
Bill and Weather, I mean, I know it's standing and there's not much more of it,
but he still has got a great hairline.
He looks good, man.
The headset's helpful, though, in that case.
On the other side of this one, Cooper Rush, is he your starting quarterback in Dallas?
Absolutely.
He's my starting quarterback.
Wow.
Okay.
He's winning games, man.
That's what this game's all about.
It's winning games.
I reckon I'm with you.
But the Dactor, I mean, you're paying them a lot of money.
There's a Miller-Light mention, fly on the wall.
Hey, look, I'm not paying to do math.
People who's net worse are north of.
Jera, what are we doing?
Yeah.
Would love to, would love to hear those conversations.
I think Dax, Dax, the guy.
Dax the guy.
I think Dax the guy.
I think they struck the old.
Until he shows you, he's not the guy.
The team has to play better when Dax's in there.
Short leash.
I think Dack is the next L.A. Rams quarterback.
Ooh.
And I think that Cooper Rush is going to be the,
stand in until they deem somebody else draftable enough to be the quarterback.
Jimmy G's the next L.A. Rams quarterback.
I'm just going out on a limb.
Yeah, yeah.
Roeback active wear.
Best way to describe Roebuck is best fit, best feel.
When it comes to quality,
Roebuck just blows it out of the park every time.
First,
Roeback's new performance hoodies are a total game changer.
Maybe the softest,
stretchiest hoodies in the game,
from college athletes to professionals to podcasters like
me. People can't take them off. The best thing about wearing a rowback hoodie is when you see somebody
else wearing it, you give them that nod because they know and you know. We get it. We're rowback
guys. Second, Robax performance polos are the only polos we wear. Even if you're not a polo guy,
these polos are perfect for a night out or day on the links with the boys. Their prints are cool too.
Third, Robax performance QZips bring a new meaning to the word comfortable. Perfect.
for a run around the block or a day in the office.
They are the definition of versatile.
Best part is NFL guys are rocking them all over the league.
You know, you got guys like Quentin Nelson wearing them.
We got our guy friend of the program, Sam Hubbard, wearing them.
It's fair to say they're taking over.
Now Alabama stud, Will Anderson is the newest sponsored athlete.
That's big news.
Brian McGeeza is the best player in the country.
Might be the Heisman trophy winner.
And Chris, for those folks that want to jump on the rowback train,

All right, so Bucks Chiefs.
We really like that game.
I mean, if you bet the Chiefs,
you really like that game.
So just a mindset, right?
You run the box.
Chris, just the mindset going into this game.
You get those elite competitors, Pat, Travis,
all these guys who played and lost to the bucks.
I did the pregame for that Super Bowl.
It was ugly.
They have a horrible taste in their mouth.
And to see them coming out, hot, looking like the Chiefs,
they put the Colts performance behind them.
Pat slinging it all over the yard.
You mentioned the offensive line.
Yeah.
I love the effort I'm seeing from Orlando Brown.
It's an echoed sentiment throughout that offensive line room.
The guys are finishing, finishing with a violent shove.
On the goal line run, Tray Smith,
finishing guy in the back of the end zone.
with a push.
Talk about a playside drive.
Yeah, I mean, these are...
That's good.
That is good.
Playside drive, backside drive.
I forgot to mention Landed Dickerson.
Nice backside drive.
Yeah.
Got to get them all.
We got to get all the...
BSDs.
Four net, a beast.
Carl Loftus looks amazing.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
He runs like he-man.
He plays the run.
He plays the pass.
He's a beast.
He's just going to play a long time.
I'm supportive of Mediterranean D-Ns.
Any others?
With long, last.
names.
Yeah.
I like the punters.
George Georgopolis of Mississippi State.
Lives in a fucking in a white clay house above the ocean.
That's how I imagine it.
George Pickens with a great game.
George Carl Loftus.
Yeah, yeah.
George.
It's really a moment for curious.
I want to say, 603 days, man.
That's how long Patrick Mahomes had to wait.
6003 days.
I actually added it up.
Didn't add it up.
I just Googled it.
How long since February 2nd, 2020?
He's been marking it on the wall probably.
Like cast away.
He's been in his house just fucking up the walls.
His wife's like,
what are you doing, Patrick?
They were geared up.
New wallpaper.
He's just,
you know,
so they were geared up and,
and Shaq Barrett had some words to say
about like they were going to get after the pass,
or it was going to be a big game for them.
They had six sacks last week,
but this is really going to be more like a coming out party.
They had three sacks,
same amount they had in the Super Bowl,
but the pressure rate was just much,
much less,
I don't know, fucking hectic.
It was just hectic back there the whole time.
You know how DP drops anyways.
In the Super Bowl, I felt like every play he had to bail out of the back of the pocket.
There was chaos at his feet.
This is what it looks like when Patrick Mahomes is comfortable.
And this fucking game was the, was like, I'd never heard any of these guys, man.
Brady's throwing a fucking guy named Keefe.
Keefe, yeah.
Number 41, Keefe.
Yeah.
Looks like a thick accountant, bro.
I mean he said he caught 12 balls in college.
Don't do the Ryan Clark here.
Somebody's going to be like, yo, you watch Keith?
I think.
James is going to call me out.
No, but Keith,
Pacheco, like, who the fuck are all these guys, man?
Like, I, like, name five guys that caught balls
last night for the Chiefs, can you?
Not named Kelsey.
Mark Lesbos, St.
Clyde Edwards, Allaire.
Oh, yeah.
Isaiah Pacheco.
You're going to, oh, I named one.
Jet McKinnon.
Okay, good.
you guys are there.
But there's some guys in there.
You're like, who the fuck is this guy?
Noah Gray?
Well, that was a run.
He took the snap.
So a couple things that I love from the Chiefs game.
Blake Bell, former quarterback from the Oklahoma Sooners, we've seen him go.
Quarterbacks need from motion from tight end, get under center.
Blake, the belldozer bell.
We saw Noah Gray do that yesterday.
That's a Blake Bell staple.
I love to see Clyde Edwards Hillier, his new helmet is unbelievable.
I've loved it the whole season.
I really do like it.
It's grown up.
It was ugly at first.
He got hit right in the helmet on that drop.
It's almost like the Tesla pickup truck, the cyber truck.
It's so hideous that it's beautiful.
And I want one.
I don't even play anymore.
I want one.
The escape sack throw early to Juju shows me that,
and all the runs where he's running around,
deep drops and stuff,
he feels healthy running the ball more so than he has in the last year and a half.
And you look back to the,
the Super Bowl and he was banged up in his lower leg foot, whatever the hell it was, you can't
get out there and run if you're in pain.
And Patrick looks to be healthy and that's really, really scary because when the play breaks
down, we saw the Xbox 360 movie pulled it the goal line with a flip seemingly like, you know.
It's like a benevolent Brett Favreve.
It's like a benevolent Brett Favreve.
Yeah.
I mean, legitimately some of those throws last night, like they're the throws that you
used to watch growing up and you were like, no, Brett, no, no, yes.
like that just like throws nobody else is making because they're just so
ballsy they're not even throws they're like flicks and pitches they can run the ball
they can protect on normal drops yeah they can run the screen effectively they can get in the
wildcat down at the goal line and have three ball carriers in the backfield and do a number of
things in the red area and uh when the play breaks down and there's coverage Patrick mohams
can force you to get off your coverage no question no question I don't think
Brady looked really good.
Brady still looks really good.
It's sick.
Brady still looks really good.
You can't spot a team, you know, seven in the first minute
because the rookie fumbles a kickoff.
I mean, it's just not, that's not, as many times Brady's comeback,
we talked about this last night.
I just don't think this is the team that Brady's going to be mounting a lot of
comebacks with, although, you know, the coverage got a little soft at times last night.
So, yeah, I was catch a ball from Hall of Fame or night.
I mean, so many guys I don't know much about catching footballs in those two teams,
but one team's working it out better.
I mean, you got to think about this.
The Chiefs, I think Mike Sando wrote about this this morning,
the Chiefs were top three in offense with Alex Smith.
So, like, they've done this, bro.
Like, they can do this with whoever they put out there.
It's just going to take time.
And some weeks are going to look like struggles, you know,
but this week did not look like a struggle.
and I know it had to feel good for Patrick Mahomes.
It's like the culture that has carried over under Andy Reed coach teams
offensively in particular just carries over.
Like I say, whoever's in there, even if it's Chad Henny in a playoff game.
I mean, they're rolling.
They're not changing the playbook.
These guys are going to do what they do.
Hey, hey, riddled me this.
28 yards, 58 yards rushing last week against the Colts.
But then they ran all over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
I thought we couldn't run on this front.
Colts front might be better.
Colts front might be better.
Defoe.
Unique.
Yeah, Colts front might.
Not unique in the run game.
No, I mean, I'm not saying he, that's why, but they just might be deeper, better.
How about my guy, Grover, uh, what the fuck his name?
Grover, uh, you know, you better learn his name.
I better learn his name.
Number 90 for the Colts, he's blowing fucking plays up on first and second down.
They just don't look, they don't look.
They didn't look that great last night.
That's the hardest I've seen Clyde Edwards-Layer run.
He ran hard last night.
Chris made a good point.
Was it Chris?
That's right.
He said competition.
Yep.
He's seeing Pacheco go out there get chunks.
Yeah.
Hey, here's where the Chiefs' offense ranks through four games of the post-Tarek era.
EPA per drive first, points per drive first, offensive points per game, second, success rate, third.
Mahomes is first among quarterbacks and EPA per pass play.
No Tyreek.
I cannot wait to hear Patrick Mahomes' voice when he's 65 doing NFL film stuff.
Because, like, he sounds like just a lifetime smoker.
He's amazing.
He does a pack of Virginia Slims a day.
I love that voice.
I love that he's such a marketable superstar
and he's got that voice, dude.
And I think,
just regular guy,
scratch golfer drinks 12 beers a day,
voice.
I don't get to 12.
I don't,
I don't hear that in his voice.
Oh,
I hear that in his voice.
I hear a little,
little Kermit.
You think he sounds more like a frog
than a human being?
I think he was the kid with a scratchy voice.
Thank you.
I got something for you.
I got a coach thing for you.
Okay, cool.
Okay, 41, 31.
Yeah.
Bucks are down.
They get to about,
about midfield, they get to the plus 46 with 12 seconds left.
Todd Bulls has taken his headset off.
Blaine Gabbard is listening in his helmet.
He's doing the move where you hold the face mask so you can hear.
Right, right.
And he goes to Todd and he goes, you know, you can kick a field goal.
It'd be a 64-yarder.
You make it, it's a long shot, sure, but you get within seven.
Say that takes five seconds.
Shut the fuck up, Blaine?
You can kick an on-site kick with seven seconds.
Yeah.
That takes a second.
You could throw a Hail Mary and Bulls.
So Blaine, I assume he goes, you know, you could kick it.
You could see Todd Bulls go, kick it.
And then they run a play, and it's a decent completion in the game's over.
But that was funny to me.
And maybe Coach Bowles should leave the headset on until there's a row.
That's the way we think at home, you know.
I love Blaine Gabbert imparting wisdom on Todd Bowles.
Yeah.
Future NFL head coach.
Oh, of course.
Yeah, because that.
Extend the game.
Yeah, you're thinking like a gambler.
That's how Chase Daniel was.
Coaches don't think like gamblers.
No, I'm thinking like extend the game.
It should be one and the same, right?
We're all trying to extend the game here.
If you got Bucks Money Line or whatever you had.
I had Bucks minus two and a half.
And then when it was awful, I had Chiefs minus 13 and a half.
And so I had to jump on a Tokyo tennis match at 11.30 p.m.
A Tokyo tennis match.
Which is a bad scene.
But my guy, P.D. Martinez, came through for me.
So, all right, we're back to even.
Legerius Sneed
Oh, StripSack King, dude
Okay, so he's a weekly STL memorial
guy
Yeah, I mean, being a corner
That's an adder in the run game
And the past game
Legerius is so much longer
And faster than people
Give him credit for
Or what he shows on TV
That guy is built like a hundred meter
Trackstar
It's his number, Kyle
Yeah, and he can run, he loves to hit
He's quiet as shit, great dude, great teammate
Hey, hey, that Juan Thorne Hill
personal foul
Not a personal foul
Juan, good hit, one.
Great hit.
Shout out Wah Huah, Wah, Wah, Huay, Huahua.
UVA, Virginia, hooha, hooray, hi, UVI.
Good for you, Kyle.
Come on.
Yeah, don't.
We haven't heard that in a while.
Okay, there it is.
Okay.
It's going on.
I don't want to hear it.
I don't want to hear it.
I don't want to hear it.
You can take the year off.
Band.
That's my brother.
Oh, man.
And then I'd walk down to the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the,
the player hangout place and the kid you're imitating is taller than the football player in college.
Legitimately looking up at him.
He's in high school.
All right.
Buffalo Baltimore.
Oh.
Let's,
bro.
All right.
So I just want to talk about this first.
The fucking the stop at the end of the game.
The biggest play of the game is second down on the goal lines.
It's 93 swimming the tackle and blowing up Pat Ricard, deleting Pat Ricard, and,
the puller who's supposed to go front side and get Matt Milano who blows up the play in the backfield.
If they don't make that play, Baltimore's ahead of the chains.
But the whole thing, even first down, right?
We know the situation, right?
The game's tied at this point.
And it comes down to kicking the field goal or scoring a touchdown.
Harbaugh makes the decision to try to score the touchdown.
On first down, just to knock the play down on the one.
On defense, we'd always say, just knock it down.
Just knock it down.
Because you never know unless you want to.
the other team to score for some reason. But you never know
when you're going to be able to string out three good defensive
plays and get off the field. It doesn't matter if it's on the
inch line. So second down, huge TFL. I should learn
that kid's name. He's a reserve number 93,
but he made the play of the game.
And then third down, you know, the kid who's in for
for hide makes a stop on the
two-yard line, sets up fourth down. And I have no problem with
John Harbaugh going for the win. I love it. I have no problem. And a
of people, you know, they get mad and I might be twisting myself up and knots talking about this,
but make and bear with me, if you're upset that you're given Josh four downs, that's what,
that's kind of the situation anyways. Like, they scored, right? They would have scored a touchdown
if they wanted to. So, you, this to me, if you watch the bill's last drive and you watch,
it was like three minutes left and you watch the fourth down, yeah, and you watch the Ravens play
this year. Do you really want to leave that to chance? You try to take the points. And it just happened
last week in the Bills and Dolphins game. The bills slowed down, right? Because they didn't want to
give the dolphins too much time, but you ended up with the butt punt. And the only problem I have
with Harbaugh and that fourth down is, and we kind of alluded to it, was put the ball in Lamar's
hands in a run-pass option situation. And if you, and if you don't convert, have them on the one-yard line.
Because then I feel really good about your defense,
even though they've been Swiss cheese on the back end.
And so Lamar, people want to talk about Lamar didn't have a great game,
or people didn't say that.
I'm not going to join the Strawman Army on Lamar Jackson.
No, you know how everybody is like, oh, they're writing Lamar off.
No, like seven people on the internet are.
Everybody knows Lamar is really good.
The discussion about Lamar is, is he really, really, really good,
or is he a team that, is he a guy who can catapult them to a Super Bowl?
that pick at the end of the game
doesn't change anything I think about Lamar Jackson
he has to throw that ball
once you call the play
it's probably going to go in the air
and he had no other option
it looked exactly like Pat Mahomes rolling away from a ton of pressure
at the end of a game in the Super Bowl
but it's just the throw you got to make
and it's a throw you got to make
and Poir makes an incredible
fucking play dude he is on the end
he's turned around
facing the other direction he's on the end
and Ravens. Facing the E.
Yeah, facing the E. Makes his way to the toe of the ass.
Makes his way past the ass.
Yeah.
And makes an incredible play.
I mean, really, like, I know people are looking to throw, but that was a great
fucking play. So that goal line stand to me was huge.
And it kind of, it kind of encapsulates the bills, man.
They got a tip ball from that, from a rookie I've never heard of, to set up a pick
earlier in the game.
Young guys making plays on the goal line.
McDermott has them playing really well.
They've always played solid in the red zone.
That was a huge stop, man.
I'm so glad you mentioned the second down in particular
because I came in this morning
and I was really fucking pissed about it
because I'm watching the end of the game again.
And first off, I'm really happy Jim Harbaugh
elected to go for it.
You want nothing more than a coach who has confidence
in your MVP.
Oh, everybody would have jacked him off.
It would have been.
He's like, those are my boys out there, right?
You know, John Harbaugh, those are all my kids out there.
They'd have been playing the B-roll at the S-Based.
And I agree, bro.
But second down, you've got to give the ball
to Lamar Jackson.
You cannot take the football out of the best player's hands
in that part of the field, in that situation in the game.
If you're trying to put the nail in the coffin,
you're going to give it to your best player.
The chiefs are going to throw it to Travis Kelsey.
You know what I mean?
Like every team has a guy,
and everybody in the stadium knows you're going to get it.
They didn't allow for Lamar Jackson to do it.
Third down, desperation, fourth down, pick.
Yeah.
Score on second down with your guy.
Getting a huge, heavy goal line formation
and let him race the contained player to the pot.
line and I promise you I'm taking Lamar Jackson seven days a week.
Yeah, I mean, or Josh Allen for that matter, that whole comeback, he was running away from
guys, bro.
He was pumping guys off.
Cannot be contained.
He cannot be contained.
I mean, O.A is an incredible athlete.
And I think about it as a rusher.
Pumping guys.
When I used to try to chase somebody who was real athletic, bigger, you know, faster, it was
hard.
And I used to think things like, hey, if I had the athleticism of an O way, how many plays
would I be able to fit?
finish. Well, he couldn't finish plays
yesterday on Josh Allen, bro. I mean,
he ended up with a sack, but he chased
him left and right
all day, spun out,
the backside of contain, raised Patrick
Queen to the fucking sideline on a
fourth down, pumped Humphrey off his feet.
I mean, he was, he terrorized
them with his legs, especially in the second half.
And I will say this about the bills
and Josh Allen, who did not look sharp
early, right? You know,
you know, you had the pick early,
but then that was a Knox drop.
But really the second drive, he almost threw a few picks.
He looked like he was off.
Like, you know when a quarterback's like inexplicably, maybe it's the rain.
I was just walking with AJ Philly yesterday.
He was at our Legends tailgate.
And he was like, bro, I couldn't like, I just couldn't.
Before a night, like a day like today, I couldn't sleep.
Like they'd just be sitting in the hotel room sleepless.
They have to be all like ambient up because they're just worried about the moisture.
And maybe that's what it was.
Because he was kind of zipping some balls in there when he should have had touch on him.
It didn't look like Josh.
But what they didn't do is they didn't panic and they did not abandon the run game.
They threw the ball a lot in the second quarter because of time possession and because they had to go.
But the rest of the game, they did not abandon that run game and it paid off for them.
So really, really good job by the bills.
You know, the middle eight, they won that.
They scored before the half and they got to stop immediately.
So they never abandoned the run game.
That ruffing call with 203 left.
Rough.
I'm with Ravens fans there.
Yep.
It looked bad.
He made an attempt to not go, you know,
forcible head to the,
forcible contact to the head and neck area.
He also did a good job while taking him to the ground
to not be too damaging.
A couple times where I thought Lamar Jackson was going to take some big damage.
Nine minutes left in the second quarter,
Lamar Houdini's his way out,
and we all saw the highlights.
But one that I don't think has been highlighted enough
was during the two-minute drive,
down 23, they drive two minutes down to score,
but the Mahomes-esque scramble by Josh Allen.
People think that Mahomes is the only guy who can do it.
I've seen it now a couple of times.
Josh Allen can do it too.
He gets out of there.
He pumps fakes guys in the air.
He knows how to play point guard out there
and influence bodies.
And there's maybe three guys in the league
who can do it like them.
Yeah.
He's remarkable and keeps you in every game.
Lamar, like people are going to parse every win loss with him.
People are going to say he wants that throwback
in the corner of the end zone. We've talked about that.
That's bullshit. He has to throw that ball. The one throw he
wants back is
I think it's 14-3
and they're driving.
He kind of hits the mascot
a little bit on Mark Andrews
on a go route. I think it was in the corner of the
end zone. That would have been 20...
Yeah, that would have been 21,
three and I don't know if the bills
get back in the game if he hits that ball. I mean, like he's open.
And Lamar, Lamar would tell you,
Lamar would be the first to tell you. Lamar will be the first
to tell you. He wants that ball back, right? That's the one. The other throws, the tips, like,
whatever. It was raining. Lamar always plays pretty well in the rain. When you look back, I feel
like he's played in some rainy games, New England, San Francisco, a couple over his career, where he was
pretty sharp. I don't know, maybe he threw a couple of picks in those games, but there's no reason to
think he's worse off in the rain. He threw some nice balls yesterday. And Queen had a rough day.
O.A felt like he was chasing Lamar all over the place.
Good to have Poir back, though.
Two picks. The bills look like the bills in the second half of the game yesterday.
He is all over the field.
Okay.
New England Green Bay. That was entertaining.
And I got to say like these are the games where I almost wish Bill Belichick had less.
Like, you know, it's like I want to see him do more with less so badly.
It's so fun.
I bet.
So I did bet the Patriots.
A bunch of people asked if I was high.
I was about to.
Yeah, you are?
No, no, no, no.
I bet that.
Well, when I bet it, yeah, it was like Wednesday night at 2 a.m.
But I couldn't wait.
There's so many points.
There's 11 points.
This is like a tailor-made.
Yeah, you were saying that the Dallas line was stinky.
Even with all these points, it felt stinky.
Like, everybody was on the fucking the pack, right?
It's Brian Hoyer.
Little did they know.
Hoyer wouldn't even have to finish the game for the Patriots.
So I just thought this was a tailor-made.
This is the kind of game Bill gets off on, dude.
I got nobody, and I'm just going to go out there.
When the chips are down.
And I'm going to go blow for blow with Aaron Rogers and the Packers.
We're going to run the fuck out of the ball.
They ran the ball obnoxiously, dude.
It's incredible.
They run the ball obnoxiously.
Like, I love it, dude.
They should do a thing with Bill where if he runs,
the ball certain amount of times everybody gets some shit from dunkin donuts like it's a tailor-made
deal if you get like 40 carries in a game it's world war one style football out there they're just like
it's trench warfare three yards in a cloud of dust people are getting stabbed with rifles yeah yeah you know
it's been long enough that's not too soon yeah right it's been long enough we can joke about people
getting stabbed with bayonets it happens no not anymore it doesn't but in green bay last night it
was happening.
It happened.
Bro, because they went big personnel like 15, 20 times.
You know, I was seeing offensive linemen out there.
It was a remarket.
Heavy reporting, reporting.
Yeah, dude, that was all day.
So just came out and set the tone early.
I know it sounds like the Pat's won as we talk about this game.
They ended up losing, but it was just really fucking fun to watch.
The one I want to ask you guys about was the punt in overtime.
Coach Macon, fourth and five.
all right so I just needed a win so I went Packers money line
Packers money line before the game starts and then we go over to my brother-in-law's
house we have some barbecue watching Red Zone it's a lovely affair kids running
around you know one of those moments where you just you take stock your life you're
just so grateful for what you have all right you were down well then my
freaking daughter has the gall at that
third and seven or so before somebody calls a time out in overtime to start pitching to fit
and announce that it's time to go. So I am now afraid of Bailey Zappy on the plus side of the
field in overtime. A considerable amount of money on the Green Bay money line. And I'm hovering over
the cash out button on the Wimbed app. And she's saying we got to get out the door. So I cash out
and get in the car
before this fourth down punt
only to be texted moments
later you should have
you should have let it ride
you should have let it ride because Bill was not
I mean like and I know
this isn't in his DNA
first off Matt Judon who played a really
nice game got him off the field on a third down
with the pressure you know out of field
wheel range on a sack he really rushed well
but more than anything he set them up to win this game
in overtime you know like his pressure
gave them the ball in the 50 yard line
everything went to plan
And they kicked to Aaron Rogers, they go three and out, they heat them up, they go three and out.
To answer your question, play to win the game.
Play to win the game.
You have ever, like you're not, you've played such an unlikely ball game with these guys.
Nobody would have thought, except me, that you'd be in overtime because I did sprinkle a little on the money line.
I lost that bet.
So in the spirit of transparency.
So, um, five is third and five.
And the punt was fourth and five from the 46.
Here's my problem with the third and five.
again second down first down you run into a heavy box okay like if you didn't like the look you
don't like the look i mean you don't want to take a shot you don't want to take a shot you want to stay at it
you want to stay at it but the second down play they run basically like off tackle and and they're
lucky to get a yard right so it's third and five and bailey's app he can't see because he's five
ten and his drop target is like 14 yards on play action pass did you notice that rashon gary had
a sack but rshawn gary is a fucking beast dude he's a fucking beast we can get to that in a second
But he's dropped to like 10 and a half yards on Gary Sack.
He's like 12 on play action.
He's just standing back there.
He's not climbing the pocket, nothing.
Which is a dream for you.
Well, which, yeah, and also makes me think he can't see.
Yeah.
But third and five, he's 5, 10.
But he does have big hands.
We looked into that last night.
Hand size is pretty big.
So you get the fourth and five here.
Dude, Aaron Rogers took four plays to get right where you are.
Four plays, bro.
I hate, I hate this.
when you punt the ball to an Aaron Rogers,
he's just, it's, it's Cobb, it's Cobb,
it's Cobb's Dobbs,
and it's Goodnight Bob,
good night Bob Kraft,
because, yeah, that's good one.
So it's Cobb, it's Dobbs,
you're at midfield, and it's basically over.
Everybody knows, like it's two, three chunk plays.
So try to win the fucking game.
And, and I just, I don't know,
that wouldn't have been what I would have done.
I would have, I would have gone for it.
Kyle, you have to go for it.
I mean, you're in a situation where,
Nobody expects you to be, and to your point, fuck it.
Yeah, fuck it, but fuck it indeed, Kyle.
Let's go win.
And then cowardly punt index had him like real high,
which I know Bill doesn't like,
because I know Bill reads cowardly pun index every night.
Then what's your play call at fourth and five?
Well, my play call in third and five is, or third and six is a lot different.
So first off.
It's only fourth and five.
I can only...
Play call, um, who do I trust the most?
Little mesh route.
Something to Kendrick Bourne, dude.
A little mesh route.
Something to Kendrick Bourne.
You have to give somebody an opportunity to win on the outside,
and you have to give multiple guys opportunities to win on the inside.
Whatever that is.
I'm not an offensive mastermind, like Matt Patricia and Joe Judge.
Angle route.
Angle route.
Yeah, I'm probably Stevenson on an angle route.
Jet pivot is what I would do.
I would get guys stopping at intermediate areas.
I would get one guy crossing.
It lets you open the windows up.
It's fourth down, man.
You got to do anything you can.
I also think, you know, like people thought a little bit,
when Zappi came in the game.
Oh, they're opening things up because he hit like two open
throws for chunks.
No, if you really charted them,
they were going to come out running the football,
whether it was Hoyer or Zappie.
And I think, honestly, I would have trusted Hoyer even more
to win that football game.
Because third and fourth and five,
I'm giving the ball.
I'm putting it in Hoyer's hands.
By the way, I call him Bailey sapy,
because his release is like fucking sap
coming down a tree, bro.
That thing is just like, it's juicy.
for a rusher.
Like, if I'm playing Bailey
Sappy,
I'm gonna get three,
dude.
I'm gonna get three.
You're not tackling
your chopping.
I'm chopping,
I remember John Abraham
used to say,
he'd be like,
I don't even try to tackle
the fucking quarterback.
That's what BG does.
Why do you try to tackle the quarterback?
So that's what,
that would have been to me
on Bailey Sappy,
who by the way,
like the ball also
is kind of like tree sap
getting out there a little bit.
If we're being honest,
I know when I talk about
quarterback's arm strengths,
people get sensitive,
but...
Is this the new to-an-
on?
What more do you need to see from Bailey's alley?
These are deep balls.
Okay, so Aaron Rogers, man.
He would look really human at times
and people are like, I've never seen Aaron Rogers play so bad.
I'm like, if you go back and look at these throws,
the Jack Jones pick was a terrible throw, right?
Like, reminiscent of the Bucks pick six, me and Reed
we're talking about, right?
This one might have been worse,
but Jack Jones made a great play.
Aaron Rogers still made Aaron Rogers' throws, dude.
The ball still looks different coming off that cat's hands.
The big Romeo drop, which I would like for you to address, was an insane throw.
He's never going to play too shitty halves, right?
He wanted me to address being right about a kid, getting open as fuck and being a big part of the Packers' offense.
What is this?
A victory lap for you?
Lazzard, 6 for 116.
You know, he's a house.
He's a beast.
I didn't set my lineup.
Nobody cares.
Okay?
We're talking about the Packers and the Patriots.
You lost more money yesterday on that game probably.
Well, actually you ended up recouping.
Got it back with the Tokyo.
Yeah, yeah.
The Tokyo.
The Tokyo tennis.
You probably would win on the fucking, uh, the fantasy league.
Oh, I thought about that.
Yes.
You care so much about fantasy and you're going to collect like $200.
Yeah, yeah.
It's pride.
It's, but it's not about the money.
Well, obviously not for me.
So congratulations to the houses.
But here's the deal.
Romeo Dobbs.
He's in the Dobbs house.
You know what Dobbs house is?
What's that?
What's a dog house?
Because when you're in the Dobbs house,
he's still got to throw you the ball.
This kid is tantalizing.
He's so fucking you get to, sure, you get the,
the fumble early in the game.
And that's the second big mistake by a rookie early in a game
that kind of cost them, didn't cost them this ball game,
but it could have cost them this ball game.
You wanna get points early, you wanna get in a rhythm.
Dobs fumble, you had the Watson drop against Minnesota.
But like, he also gives you the back shoulder.
He also gets open.
He's really good.
He's fucking really good, dude, dude.
He's really good.
And he dropped that ball and it was a drop.
It wasn't a catch.
But he's in the Dobbs house, which is like,
club fed. He's still going to get the ball.
Aaron's going to try to bump him up, boost
him up. He's going to gas him up.
Bro, he's not. He's going to just, he was on the, no.
He asked
if he could drive Dobbs home last night.
Said nothing to him. Just put him in the car.
Said nothing to him. Turn on
Info Wars.
Like 41
volume. Rogan.
Just Rogan talking to a guy about
mushrooms and aliens.
Yeah. I'm like, what are we doing? He's just driving
him around in a circle or around Green Bay.
fucking
his little
his little hairs
his little two strands of hairs
no dude
don't know with the hair
flying out the box
not with the piggy blinders
but Aaron Rogers
is an absolutely dog
on the football field
bro
if that's his worst game
still some of those throws
and you said it
Alan Lazard
in my notes
I have
throw the fucking ball
to Alan Lazard
on first down
early downs
if you want to get
your willies out
and throw the ball
throw it to a guy you trust
I know we're trying
to get all these rooks
he's involved.
Christian Watson is getting end-arounds and shit,
and they are trying to get him involved in the run game.
But go to the guys you trust,
especially Alan Lazard on first down.
That ball he threw to him on the right sideline,
Jonathan Jones in coverage.
Coverage couldn't be better.
Ball couldn't be better.
They really have a good...
We need to stop talking about Alan Lazard,
like he's just a guy.
Okay, like he...
He's more than a guy because he plays with Aaron Rogers
and they got a good rapport.
So throw him the ball, trust him on early downs.
Listen.
Kyle, you're the car head, you're the gearhead.
Do you have to break in sports cars?
Like, I can't drive a sports car off a lot and go 200 miles an hour.
It depends on how much you care about the longevity of your sports car.
Okay, so fucking break in the Ferrari here, right?
Yeah.
Go 35 with the Ferrari a little bit.
I know that's what it feels like, but run the football.
Their best drive.
Test your limit.
It felt like the Watson end around for a touchdown.
Just lean into this thing you got, man.
You got good backs.
You got a good offensive line.
You got guys coming back.
run the fucking football.
Aaron doesn't have to go 200 miles an hour, man.
Even if you're not running the football
an extension of that run game is a lot of what we
saw with Devante, and I haven't really
seen them run these types of plays with the same confidence.
It's the quick dump off with
one-on-one block and a receiver
outside, and it's going to be, it's like an Oklahoma drill
that to create between the numbers and the sideline.
You've seen, and the good teams are good at,
are really good at it, and I think I would like to see
Alan Lazzard more on first down, to your point,
involved in some of those stack bunch formations.
Oh, I want to see Dobbs involved there.
I want to see Dobbs getting the ball out there and one guy goes blocks,
one guy gets the ball.
The other guy goes blocks, the other guy gets the ball.
You know what else I want to see, Colin?
I'm not going to let it go.
Mike Gaseki in a Packers uniform.
That's what I want to see.
Oh, Big Bob.
Big Bob.
Two for 22.
You said this three times.
Big Bob Tunyon.
No.
Both of them.
And what did I say to you the other two times?
What did I say the other two times?
Mike Kisiki?
Mike Gaseki's not a fucking tight end, dude.
Right, right, right, right.
You don't have to line him up like a tight end.
You know, split him out, put him in the slot.
Like, get, you know, chef it up, man.
But you want to give him some trusted targets that he can go to in crunch time.
He's got him, but maybe one more.
Maybe one more.
Christian Watson and him don't seem to have a great rapport through the air.
Maybe someone a bit more dynamic than Randall Cobb at this stage in his career.
Maybe so.
Maybe so.
And I, nobody is as clutch or dependable as Randall Cobb.
By the way, you mentioned Big Bob.
Mm-hmm.
I want like an Aaron Rogers' eyes vision on every throw he makes.
Like seeing him look off safeties and shit and just his dead eyes.
Game within the game.
When Madden tried to make us like look off people and your QB vision.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
I want to see his QB.
I want to see Aaron Rogers' eyes on every play.
They should have, they have cameras everywhere.
Give me a fucking camera on Aaron Rogers' eyes every play.
Every play.
Give Tony Romo a fucking camera on Cole Strange every play.
Romo loves Strange
Did you know that?
He circled him seven times just yesterday.
Yeah, yeah.
I mean, he played pretty well.
So that's one for Bill that he needs, man.
He needs that draft pick to hit,
and it looks like it's hitting early.
I mean, this dude was pulling around,
knocking people off.
Kyle, you like what you see from this kid?
If Tony Romo likes him, I love him
because nobody knows ball better than a quarterback
and nobody knows quarterbacking better than Tony Romo.
But Roma doesn't know line play that well.
Well, here's the deal.
The quarterbacks run the offensive line.
Yeah.
The quarterbacks tell us where to go before the play.
But I can't tell when I watch Tony Romo talk about.
But if I'm on the, if I'm on the offensive line, and I don't know where I'm fucking going, I'm not going to look at the center.
I'm going to turn around and say, what is he going to say?
Because as he goes, we need to go.
The guy's got to go that way.
Yeah.
I really like that way.
I really like the, the ball not getting off.
Aaron Rogers, cussing him out.
And then he's like, hey, you need to get that ball out.
How about Sappy and that sappy-ass play clock?
Right.
It was down at zero for like a whole fucking second, dude.
They're just trolling Rogers.
It's commonplace now, though, right?
Yeah, it is commonplace.
They give you a beat.
It's like one, zero.
That was a long.
Is it three beats?
Three beats.
Yeah, it was long.
Give me your beat.
Uh, that.
Hit zero, beat, beat, beat.
Whoa, whoa, snap.
I cut it off after.
I cut it off after two beats.
As you should.
Who was he mad at?
Kyle, Kyle, you're the offensive guy.
Who is he mad at?
The center.
The center's got to be aware of the fact that when the ball's down to zero,
the ball's got to get snapped.
And everybody else in anticipation.
I get it.
But like his hand wasn't under his ass cheeks until zero.
It's Aaron Rogers.
He's allowed to be mad at everybody.
That's all you had to say.
He's allowed to be mad at anybody but himself.
He's earned that right.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I'm just wondering.
It's not a rhetorical question.
I don't know.
I was kind of confused.
Okay.
It's like when I forget my notes and I'm like,
why didn't you get my fucking notes?
You do that?
It's my fault.
You do that at work?
I'm hypothetetic.
Okay.
Hypothysizing.
See long.
See long.
See long.
Yeah.
All of the fourth plus round receivers in NFL history to record as many receptions,
yards and touchdowns as Romeo Dobbs through three games.
Marcus Colston and Pro Football Hall of Famer Steve Largent.
Bro, it's going to be a good fucking time with Romeo Dobbs.
Just stick with it, guys.
Shout out Justice Muscatta on on the Twitter.

Okay, so you saw picket play
somebody saw picket play?
Yeah, I saw the highlights of picket
but I didn't get to watch it in real time.
frustrated for Mitch but the offense
needs a spark. Mike Tomlin does not
want to have a losing record, obviously,
and he knows that he's probably not going to get it
at Chubisky at the helm right now.
Got to keep that Cal Ripkin's streak alive.
It's what it's all about.
No incompletions for Kenny Pickett.
Except for 10 to his team,
three to the other team.
That was his 13 pass attempts.
He puts the ball on people's hands.
Listen, the first...
He provides a spark.
The first throw wasn't the worst throw in the world.
I know, like, Clayton will probably go up and just
play defense or cast a ball.
but yeah I don't know I don't want to make too much a big deal of this
there's no going back though we were talking about this last night you can't go back
now and because we've been through this before I've seen it before when a quarterback is
benched for somebody the coach thinks it's gonna give us a better chance and then it's
like uh maybe that was the no no no you made your bed now sleep in it well how'd the
how'd the thing go in Miami when B-Flow who big B-flow is up there he might say hey
Mike you know like I did that thing with Fitsy and Tua and yeah it's sometimes you're
like yeah well but there's no Ryan
Fitzpatrick. He's an anomaly, right? There's no Ryan Fitzpatich.
Trubis. Trubisk.
Trubisk. It doesn't work.
What fuck was that? Trabisk.
Tribus.
There's no Fitz magic.
No, yeah, yeah. You're right.
Bisk magic.
You're welcome.
So we really don't need to say much about that game, but it's a big win for the Jets, man.
It's a big, you get your quarterback back and you win and you got a short flight.
Maybe they got the best plane ride. We'll see.
We'll see.
Stick around.
Stick around.
We'll see.
We'll see.
But Kenny Pickett, man, like, I do think they're probably better.
I think they're probably better with it.
They're better with Kenny Pickett.
And, yeah, it's unfortunate to see.
I didn't believe it.
I didn't believe it because I thought Mitch would be better.
I saw too many drops from the Steelers last week.
I saw a lot of great throws.
I was tweeting about it all week.
Second half of that game last week.
I saw a quarterback putting you in a position,
but for whatever reason, the receivers and the quarterback aren't meshing.
and you got to bring a new guy in.
And maybe they have some sort of chemistry in the building that we don't know about,
pick it in these receivers.
And you know how it goes.
He might be young.
He might know trap names.
Sometimes they pick it favorites.
He might be cooler than Mitch Trevisky.
Yeah.
Well, Mitch is a new dad.
He's got a lot going on, man.
Pick magic.
Three picks.
Pick magic.
Kenny, Kenny throws picks.
We got there.
Picks it.
Kenny picks it.
We got there.
Kenny pick six.
Okay.
The best of the rest, man.
Okay, Tennessee.
Indy might be cooked.
get them out of here.
Indy might be cooked.
People predictably overreacted.
I mean, you gave out Indy.
I bet Indy was,
or Tennessee, sorry.
I mean, yeah, we keep mixing two teams up
because they're so fucking similar.
Yep.
We both were on Indy,
and I just feel like,
Tennessee.
We both were on Tennessee.
And I just feel like,
I just feel like,
although they're very different,
the two teams,
you know,
Vrabel and Wright,
very different guys.
But.
personalities of those teams, but two big backs, good defensive lines.
Two white quarterbacks look like.
Both in the same division.
Tennessee's won four straight now, but against the Colts.
But the whole thing is Indy, man, they're going to, if this is the last year that Matt
Ryan's under center for them, it's not like he's been terrible.
He's just not the old Maddie Ice.
what do they do now?
What do they continue to do?
You know, Ballard and Reich,
I really like these guys,
but what are they going to do next?
Because they're going to play themselves
in the middle of this draft.
I guess there's going to be some good quarterbacks,
but you have to hit on this next quarterback.
Bro, like look at the last four or five years
how many guys they've had under center.
After all that time of when you go from
Peyton Manning to Andrew Luck
and you're just like, oh, we're always going to have a good quarterback.
And now it's just been this cycle of new faces and new names.
So I don't know.
They currently have down 24-3.
Pick number 10.
They pick number 10.
So they need to keep losing.
But I fear that they get decent enough to be 7 and 11.
18 games.
Whatever it is.
Making the playoffs.
Yeah, 7-Eleven.
Well, they're going to make the playoffs and then lose.
Yeah.
You got it.
Yeah.
You're going to lose in the wild card route.
So Indy might be cooked.
They're down 24-3 before you can blink,
and somehow miraculously the under hit.
43.
They're not a team that's built to play from behind.
They never were, and they have Matt Ryan to keep the competitive in the passing game,
but they're a team that's relied so heavily on the run game
that when you're down 24-3, you say,
fuck, this isn't our identity.
Shaq Leonard's in the game, but now he's out with a concussion.
Like, Shaq, our best guy's on the field.
Now he's off the field.
I've got to have a talk with the Jonathan Taylor.
Fantasy Jonathan Taylor.
Oh, Sphinctor of the Week.
Miller-Light mentioned Jonathan Taylor Fantasy Managers.
But if they care, if they care, if they care.
If they care.
This year I'm probably not going to win it.
I don't care.
You got a solid team.
Just need to set the roster.
We don't care.
Set the lineup.
We don't care.
And then Denver, Vegas, Reed, you know, real bummer for you that your team might suck.
Yeah, it was a tough realization.
What week did you have this realization?
Was it a couple weeks ago?
Well, it was nice to see us score some points this week.
Like we finally got the offense rolling.
Unfortunately, the defense, which had been firing all cylinders the past couple weeks,
could not stop Derek Carr and company, which the NFL, the rest of the teams,
the NFL seemed to have done very well in the Raiders three previous games.
And Thursday coming up against,
the Colts.
I don't even know
as you can tell.
I don't look ahead.
Broncos home for the Colts.
That's going to be a tough game
for Time Machine,
which by the way,
we were texting
during Thursday Night Time Machine.
Probably should have posted that text exchange.
That was fun.
That was fun in an awful way.
I wasn't having fun.
I wasn't having fun.
I wasn't having any fun.
Yeah.
I'm on the right side
of all these fucking games
on Thursday.
I told you I was sorry.
I was sorry.
I was sorry.
Don't even remember the freaking game.
What do you think's favorite in that
Colts at Broncos?
Broncos
Hold on
Well yeah everybody
Hold on everybody
Just hold on
I haven't said it
Broncos four points
I think the
I think the Colts are
One and a half point favorites
Okay hold on
Two and a half
Broncos favorites
Okay hold on
Both two and two
Yeah I think so
Denver
They sure don't feel like it
Denver's at home
No Giovante
Indie scufflin
It's gonna be
The
the Broncos
will be favored by
one and a half.
Kyle's closest, Broncos by three.
That new Danger Witch.
So yeah, sorry about that,
read, man, but Max Crosby had a great game.
Unfortunately, though, now nobody's talking about the fucking Raiders,
so people are going to be looking up in November,
like, what's Matt's Crosby done this year?
Balled out.
He's been on TV.
I mean, he fucking, he played well yesterday.
So, and Certainin Adams.
I can't wait to watch that.
Certain is so big.
Guys, I didn't realize how big you.
I could let it go on.
Sir tan.
Coutan.
Certan.
Cetan.
Cetan.
This guy's good.
It's very big.
Be like if you guys went like, hey, we're launch now.
Yeah.
The launch family.
I think we're over.
Over simplify it.
The goonters.
Yeah.
Which that's initially that was, was pronounced.
Probably.
Hey, Detroit, Seattle.
I was, we were sitting here last night.
There's 48, 48.
45.
4845.
Yeah,
Scorogami.
Good reason, dude.
Like, this is a big 12 game.
This is,
you talk about the big 12,
this is a big 12 game.
And I'm not going to dive into this game.
Gino Smith.
Would you rather have Gino Smith or Russell Wilson right now?
Gino Smith.
Boy.
100% Gino Smith right now.
Russell Wilson.
Keeping contracts in mind?
Juno Smith.
Well, sure.
Gino Smith.
He's got a point.
And he's just playing explosively.
And he's,
providing a spark to an offense.
It's incredible.
Like Russ, how about Russ?
All right, I'll give a viewing party early for Millo Light mentions.
How about Russ getting on the bus and looking at the day?
Or was it in the locker room getting his ankle tape?
Because that was the 1 PM Detroit and Seattle was in.
But like, you watch, you definitely pay attention.
I know he's got Tony Robbins in his ear.
I know he's got Jordan Peters in his ear.
Yeah, I know he's in there, you know, spinning around and visualizing and shit.
But he's definitely checking the score.
of that Seattle game.
Absolutely.
Forty-five, 48 points, dude.
And here's the problem for the Lions, man.
And I feel, I feel, because, hey, we love Dan and everything, and they've been, they've been
competitive, but it's time for them to start cashing it with some wins.
Like, it feels like the clock striking midnight a little bit.
I'm not saying that he's in trouble.
What I am saying, though, is that people are going to start saying, okay, Dan, we got to
finish these games.
And he knows that.
He'd be the first to tell you after we tell you.
This is good.
One thing.
So last night, we're looking at this team.
They're explosive as fuck offensively.
Now, two of their games, they've been major like comeback games, right?
But we didn't take that in account for the dolphins and Tua beating the Ravens, right?
This makes them the greatest show on turf.
We'll apply the same logic to Detroit.
They're just not winning these games because their defense is so ass, dude.
Their defense is playing terrible, right?
They're historically, not historically.
their bottom of the league defensively
and their top of the league offensively
and I was thinking last night
legit when's the last time
we had a team like this
and if you'll remember the Steve Spagnola
led Saints in 2012
the first team came to mind
you looked them up
they were top three offensively
and bottom three they were actually
I think dead last in defense
and that team seven and nine
and when you look at a lot of these teams
that are kind of top five bottom five
they end up seven and nine
they end up you know
whatever it is.
And that's what you're looking at with this team.
An eight and nine team.
That are all going to have six one possession losses, right?
Yeah.
And at the end of the season,
I've been on these teams with,
I'm not making a joke,
but I was on this team with fish.
We were seven and nine a couple years.
Like that was the height of my St.
Louis experience was,
you know,
just under 500.
And for a team that's been like Detroit,
there's so many moments where you're like,
we could be good.
It's so fucking tantalizing.
It's so frustrating.
There's so many losses during the season
that you go in a locker room and it's dead quiet.
Somebody slamming something.
You know, it's quiet for a minute.
You hear somebody just scream in agony
because you're so good.
You're so close.
You can smell it.
But you don't know how to win football games.
You don't, and you're not playing defense.
And that exacerbates the kind of social scene in a locker room.
It's like the defense can't get a fucking stop.
And we're scoring 45 points with Jared golf out here, dude.
So it's tough.
It's tough for the lions.
And if you'd have told me, I'd just liken them to the Saints,
which is funny as hell because they were Drew Bree's-led team,
and you expected them to be good,
that was a disappointing season for the Saints for that program.
They're a 13-win, 12-win, 10-win team,
even though they snuck in some sneaky seven to nine years.
The Lions are perpetually three and 13.
So if you had told me the Lions are going to win seven or eight games this year,
everybody was said, right, they're better.
But what they've done is they showed us too much.
They've showed us that they can be good.
And that's the difference.
It's like when you show us that you can beat good teams, we expect it.
And so that's the zone they're in.
And that's worse than being a bad team.
Because now their team is good enough to win and they have to learn to win.
They're not good enough to overlook the little things and the little things pile up.
And we've talked about it numerous times on the last few Mondays about various games.
But I remember being on a team early in my career, you get to the little things.
in the huddle. It's Jay Cutler, Matt Forte,
Brandon Marshall, Martellis Bennett,
Alshan Jeffrey, and a host
of offensive linemen that have pelts
on the wall in the league. And me,
rookie, but I felt like
I could hold my own. I knew we were set
at that huddle offensively. The question marks
were in large part on defense and aging
defense. A Lovie Smith defense that was
inherited by Mark Tresman and a host
of new coaches there for the first time in a
long time. You get an offense
that's capable, you get a defense that's bad.
Then three, four years later, Vic Fangio comes in with John Fox,
and it's a defensive blueprint for a football team,
and we have a dominant defense that we built,
and then we're unable to back it up on offense.
I was going to ask you about a year, like, where your defense is really good,
and you were good, but, like, I've, yeah, I'm not going to see here in dump on.
There were mismatches offensive.
But your offense was just kind of like vanilla to me,
and we played you in the playoffs.
And it's frustrating.
And it's frustrating.
And I've been on teams where, fuck, Seattle comes in Monday night.
We sack fucking Russell Wilson 11 times, and Marshawn rushes for 24 yards, and we lose.
We lose the Seahawks.
And you go in that locker room, and you're just like, what the fuck is happening right now?
And all the defensive coaches have to act mad.
You know, they still have to act upset.
Everybody's in this.
But they did great.
But you know what?
Like, here's what should happen in those offensive rooms in Detroit this morning.
Guys, keep doing what the fuck you're doing.
And find the plays that we can take advantage of.
the difference between scoring, if it's going to take us 55 points to win,
let's go get 55.
Let's find the 8 points.
You know, and try not to focus on what's going on on the other side of the wall, but it's hard.
Momentum, you said early in the season, I think confidence is just momentum.
That's, well, momentum is just confidence.
Yeah, people use the momentum word.
That's all it is.
Do not take out of consideration the fact the Lions have tremendous momentum offensively
and they're doing things the right way.
Yeah, no, it feels like a loss.
It feels like a big loss, though,
because they're good, right?
They did it without Swift, St. Brown, Shark.
Like, how, dude?
Awesome.
This young fucking OC is legit.
He's legit.
I better learn his name.
Yeah, we should look that up.
I knew it last week.
Ben Johnson.
Ben Johnson.
Ben Johnson.
It's a nice simple name.
Which translates to has existed as a penis.
Yeah.
Yeah, you got it.
It's good.
It's good, PFT.
Yeah.
Yeah, loosely.
Okay.
I was going to ask you this read as we wrap this up because I don't care about Arizona, Carolina.
If you're a Cardinals fan or a Panthers fan, we'll see you next week.
But L.A.
Houston, yeah, be better.
L.A. and Houston.
Damn it, Houston.
I know.
Golly.
Damn it.
Damn it in a lot of ways.
Because as you know, I have the overwin total on Houston, which is four and a half.
And I have the under on Atlanta, which is five.
So these two teams yesterday, it went the other way for me.
and I asked Reed to calculate the chances of these bets hitting for me.
So Houston, four and a half, I need to go over that.
So what are the chances of them getting five wins?
And then Atlanta, what are the chances of them finishing with four wins?
Yeah, Atlanta could be six and something, dude.
So right now, 538 projects the Falcons to finish the season at 7 and 10.
Oh, not even close.
And the Texans to finish the season at 3.13 and 1.
Okay, so there's hope here
They got to be yeah
I mean there's hope here
The tie hurts
The tie really hurts
But there's hope here for the for the Texans
They got it to 2724 though
On the plus they were plus five or whatever
Yeah
After being down 277
Oh
Thought we were in great shape
Heartbreaker
And a heartbreaker to hear about those numbers man
Let's go Miller light mentions
And wrap this thing up guys
Football season brings back many traditions
We know and love
Touchdown dances pick sixes
strip sacks, game winning sacks,
tackles, hitting the quarterback,
and watching it all with friends
in a cooler Miller light.
The action on the field is reliable year after year.
Pair it with the most reliable light beer, Miller Light.
My perfect Miller Light situation,
there's crisp, leaves are turning,
I got a cooler full of Miller lights.
It's just warm enough to sit outside,
maybe an outdoor TV,
and I got about 12 to 16 of those bad boys
in my cooler.
and I have three friends over because I'm drinking responsibly.
Miller Light is the perfect beer for football Sundays
because of the dependable taste.
Your friends love it.
It's got low calories and carbs.

Best plane ride, Chris.
Yeah, because of Dr. Tickle.
But also, best plane ride, I want to go, I want to go.
I had jets, because they flew around that storm, didn't they?
Like, they were down in Pittsburgh.
They kind of got to, I remember flying home yesterday.
We got up to 10,000 feet or 15,000 feet or whatever.
Maybe it was 20,000.
And I hadn't seen the sun in two days, man.
Same thought yesterday.
No, so best plane ride.
I'm going to go Jets because they played close to home.
They won quick flight and they didn't have to go through the hurricane.
Maybe they did.
You know, I haven't been on an airplane since 2019.
Really?
Yeah.
How about that?
That probably feels good.
Another thing about me, turbulence, not bothered by it?
Not anymore.
Like social interaction, sure.
But turbulence, nah.
Yeah.
All good.
Turbulance is fun.
You're not a human being.
Once somebody explained it.
to me like this it's like being on a boat
going over waves I was like
all right cool. Except there's no water and you're in a
plane. Yeah yeah yeah yeah you can sink fast
I'm giving it to those Seattle
Seahawks. I think Pete Carroll's fun on a
plane as long as he's not talking
conspiracy theories I think
Gino's probably fun on a plane
DK's fun on a plane Puna Ford
is fun on a plane
and this also
Michael Dixon the punter is fun
on a plane and it gives me an opportunity
to do my favorite
Geography's lesson, Kyle.
Did you know that Detroit
from which they were flying
is farther west than Atlanta?
I wouldn't be surprised.
Okay. Do you think Detroit is farther
west than Cincinnati, Ohio?
Yes.
Do you think it's farther west than Knoxville, Tennessee?
Yes.
Do you think it's farther west than
Tallahassee, Florida?
That's a good question.
Tallahassee, yes.
Detroit is
you're just going to they're all yes
wait wait what were we saying
you said is Detroit further west than
Tallahassee no they're fighting
Detroit is farther east and all of those
all of those
it's it's damn near Toronto
well it's a five hour flight dude it's near Windsor
everything in the great lakes
is so foreign to me
okay let put north of Chicago
Atlanta more west than Detroit
Knoxville more west than Detroit
Tallahassee, more west than Detroit.
Yeah, yeah.
The first one I said.
Yeah, yeah.
I knew which we were just guessing.
We knew.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You know.
We knew.
Detroit.
You've done this on the pod before.
You've legitimately done this on the pod.
Okay, here's another one.
Boston and Austin.
You can see Canada from the hotel.
Are the only two U.S. state capitals that rhyme.
Another geography fact.
That's good, man.
So, Kyle, you got any best or worst flights?
Yeah, best flight, which wasn't a flight, was D.
Mekkaf riding the cart to the locker room to piss.
Oh shit.
I think he had to shit.
Maybe he had to pee out of his butt.
He had a poop injury.
He had to peeve out of his butt.
Reminds me of Paul Pierce.
Now the Paul Pierce thing makes sense.
Real.
Like he did it, he did it open.
He didn't open Paul Pierce.
You know, Paul Pierce was like, man, my leg exploded.
You know, but he had to shit, right?
Yeah.
Well, he had already done a little.
He had pooped a little bit.
Yeah.
for being confident enough in his self to tell everybody that he had to shit really bad because that's a
personal detail right dk 7 for 149 it had to shit yep and a turd worst flight Kyle worst flight
that would have to be the UVA cavaliers coming back from duke well i got some good news for you
the bus ride yeah well we we don't have the we're not winning enough games to have the budget to be
flying from i actually love the bus route that just worked out artistically great didn't it yeah
the way that just had.
It did.
Both your flights were grounded.
It did.
Yeah.
I go a worse flight.
Okay.
James Winston on the way back from New Orleans, or not New Orleans,
on the way back from London, uh, because of, uh, his transverse fracture.
There's a transverse fracture.
Hadn't been home in two weeks.
I've been home in weeks.
Oh, a fortnight.
Say a fortnight.
A fortnight.
Yeah.
Had been home in a fortnight.
And Andy Dalton's out there cooking.
Well, not cooking, but, you know, like the burners at least.
on.
It's prepping.
Yeah, the burners, it's sizzling.
You know, when you let it sizzle?
Chopin onions.
What do they call that?
When you leave something on, like you get some...
You got it on, like, low.
Simmer, yeah.
Simmer.
Yeah, simmering.
Yep.
So, yeah, it can't feel good going back over the Atlantic with a bunch of fucked up
shit in your back.
I'll go Cleveland Browns leaving Atlanta.
Fourth quarter lead had a chance to go to three and one.
We're just waiting for Deshawn to come back.
I mean, I think Cleveland is.
is potentially good.
Yeah.
But you got to close out games against Atlanta.
Yeah.
You're flying back home to Cleveland.
You know,
it's great is Cleveland's losing,
and this was the easy part of their schedule, right?
This was like the first six games.
Panthers, Jets, Steelers, Falcons.
And they're losing.
Yep, two and two.
Yeah.
What do we got?
Hollow Man?
Hollow Man is Antonio Brown's friend group.
Oh, I have that as...
I have that.
I know he's going to be involved.
involved in many ways here.
The visitors in Dubai at that like fucking,
that paid a hell of money to go stay in Dubai at some nice hotel.
And you got to see Antonio Brown's dick.
You got to see Antonio Brown's meat.
Can I interest you in some of our breakfast meets?
Hollow man.
The blurring technology.
What?
The pixelator.
Hollow man, because you want to see it?
No, I'm just saying we saw it.
Yeah, you can see it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I got you.
Yeah, the pixelator didn't do a very good job, but the pixelator really never does.
You can always tell what's going on there, man.
I mean, he had a tweet that he said people should call up Antonio Brown because of the way he's exposing D's.
That's amazing.
The better tweet was stretching the D.
He was pulling that thing, dude.
And so viewing party for me was like, who are the people that were sitting there?
And what were they thinking, dude?
Were you thinking like, it's incomprehendantial.
comprehensible that a guy
who he was there?
I don't know.
In Dubai,
I just heard Yana Sanza Ticompo
talk about being in Sweden
and nobody knew who the fuck he was.
Can you imagine being Antonio
a rap artist?
So, you know,
a lot of people buy singles.
Did I pronounce that correctly?
You did.
Wow.
When he puts his,
I've never said it out loud.
Now you have.
His rear end in this woman's face.
Do you think she is known to Antonio Brown?
Is that real?
Yeah, that's real.
Oh, I thought it was a coffee bean.
That's his butt.
That's the beginning of the video.
Yeah, it's not good behavior, man.
I know, like, a lot of people joke about this stuff.
It's awful.
Whipping your dick out in a public place.
You're an NFL player.
You know, I know we laugh a lot of Antonio Brown's behavior away.
And, like, the younger generation, there seems to be no standard for behavior anymore.
And if you can ball or you have clout, like, people just eat it up no matter what.
So that's what we got going on.
This is an example of what not to be.
And when I say Hollow Man being his friend group, and this is for the young fans,
this fucking be there for your friends who are doing dumb shit on the internet we all have friends
Chris has been the first to text me and say you shouldn't be tweeting that you you look like
you're like a crazy person on the internet you shouldn't be whipping your dick out of the pool
when I get carried away on Twitter or anything when you literally carried me away I have carried
from that from that Vegas pool party were clothed hollow man has been discussed for shah white who got
plenty of run later in that game but the tone was set with that fumble on the opening kickoff
My Hollow Man, a drunken Chris Long at three in the morning eating an egg salad sandwich at a 7-Eleven.
Under an awning and there's just the hurricanes coming down and I'm just alone eating an egg salad sandwich.
Connor and Bo had gone home. I had to go back out and get dip.
I was just three sheets of the wind and all I could really, there's so many options in the 7-Eleven at 3 a.m.
There's so many chips.
And I opted for an egg salad sandwich, bro.
Very you.
Like honestly, I need to get a, I need to detox myself.
And not a Wawa, aren't there?
Wawa's all over the place?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Well, you know, I'm a 7-Eleven guy.
I know that's a sacrilyche.
A lot of people up there, but like I just didn't grow up with Wawa.
They're like, but what about the sandwiches?
I'm like, you eat gas station sandwiches?
Not only that, I'm fresh off of me, Connor, and Bo getting turned away at a bar at 2.45 in the morning.
Because we were too old and we were just three guys.
Too drunk, too late, or too many dudes?
Two many dudes.
Like three former Philadelphia Eagles standing in the fucking.
rain. The bar wasn't closing.
Oh, no.
That's amazing. I watched
two fucking little short guys.
Some sports town. Did one of you three
said that you played for the Philadelphia Eagles?
Didn't say a word. I just, I just
made sure, you know me, Kyle.
The guy turned me away and they had this like tent
that they were standing under, so I just stood in the tent.
And I was like, okay, well, I'm just going to stay dry.
And they were like, this is our tent.
And so I moved over to the next tent and stood
right on the edge of their tent for
like 30 minutes, just eating my
ex-elage. You have to go buy a packet of
and gas them out.
You just smoke in their tent.
No, I just was obnoxious as fuck.
That's one way.
I was like, yeah, you're still going to be working here in 20 minutes.
I'm going to be eating an egg salad sandwich.
So who's the fucking winner now?
We should be like honorary captain, guys.
About letting the honorary captain into this shitty nightclub, dude?
We shouldn't even be here.
So that was my hollow man.
I called you about 1 p.m. on Saturday.
It was like a one way conversation with
on the other side.
It was bad.
I wasn't vomiting, but I just couldn't breathe.
Yeah, that was a coughing.
Yeah, I couldn't breathe.
I could do a fly on the wall.
Yeah, sure.
I'd like to do a fly on the wall for the,
what I assumed to be the Oxford, Mississippi drunk tank
for when all those idiots have to come in after the game.
Oh, their dads were there right away.
But like, does it look like a St. Anne's Bellefield carpool line?
A bunch of Tahos.
Yeah, dads, dads.
Yeah. Lawyers, dads.
Flying the wall, serious one, the protocols.
What's going on with the protocols?
What's being talked about behind closed doors?
Everybody was taken out short of Cameron Brayt right away this week.
Oh, asshole of the week, the official that fucking gave the bucks a penalty because Brate was out there seeing stars.
Couldn't get off the field.
The week after the Tua thing, you're going to call a penalty on these guys?
asshole of the week
James Madison University
Whoa
They're
They're putting
Chris
Yeah
9-923 t-shirts
Which is the date of the game
Next year when they play Virginia
Now Virginia's down bad
They're never going on
America's team again
They're printing t-shirts right now
That's a 9-923 on them
Mostly because you should aim higher dude
Yeah
Like James Madison
The fucking guy
I don't know anything that he'd
dead. That's not a little brother. Lizo played his flute. But he definitely, yeah,
yeah, Lizzo did play his flute. And played it well. But, but, but that, I bet you James
Madison wouldn't have had a fucking t-shirt with, you know, with a team, with the team on it
that just lost the Duke. And you can get those t-shirts for $19.95 on one rockin.com.
That's, well, fix the audio read. I couldn't hear that. Um, I want to get, I want game ball. We
talked about it, the Philly thing, Homerism, but the Hassan Reddick stuff that we, you know, like big
plays, man, big plays. I know he'd been waiting to have his signature game. You want that game,
you know, as a new guy who's making a lot of money and he forced two fumbles yesterday.
And I'm going to give mine to A.J. Brown, same game. Shut up. Played big, played physical.
Also a dad. Had a kid this week. Give me the scoop. Okay. Congratulations, AJ Brown.
Public knowledge. Well, you know, I'm not public to private knowledge, you know. Privy to private.
Game ball at Jamie Gillen, Scottish Hammer.
Giants win.
You know, AJ Brown's wife being pregnant wasn't in my scouting report, Chris.
I care about babies.
And I wasn't at the tailgate.
Beville Conway?
Oh, Bevel Conway, the old Miss end zone.
Okay, I was getting some Confederate flag vibes, if I'm being honest.
Wow.
Aren't you the Thomas Jefferson fan?
I love Thomas Jefferson.
Okay, you're like okay with everything he did?
No, I didn't say that.
I didn't see me wave any Confederate flags in his end zone.
Beville Conway, NC State quarterback Devin Leary looked great.
Looks like a mad and creative player, honestly.
I think I'm going to give my game ball to, with all the cut-ins with Aaron Judge,
we get to see his face a lot and his teeth.
He got his teeth redone at some point his career.
I looked at before and afters.
A lot of times Hollywood, professional athletes, they get the fake teeth in there too much.
Yeah.
It's like CGI.
Yeah, it's too much.
Aaron Judge has found the happy medium.
It looks natural.
looks perfect.
Your dentist's name is Crentist.
How do you go into a veneer shop and you're like, yeah, just don't fuck it up.
Like, don't give me the ones that you usually do.
I would like the home run champ, smile, please.
I like, I like me and you and him, everybody, everybody, the way God made us, you know?
Yeah.
For sure.
Aaron Judge, can you get it over with so that, you know, when I'm hung over laying in the bed,
when you call me bro Aaron Judge is popping into the TV left and right dude people are walking
him he's getting hit by a pitch it's fucking I'm trying to watch college football here a lot of
people have issue with that they got to play the teams that are out of it Baltimore not going not not
not laying down they're not fucking I don't care we're not we're not here for Aaron Judge we're
trying to fucking get into the dance at the Rangers Monday night got a we got a rangers oh
Martine Perez on the bump, as I like to say.
On the hill.
Martinez not going to give it up.
That's a stone cold lock.
Okay.
Beville Conway?
Yeah.
You said yours.
I got a couple college games for you.
UCLA, Washington looked good again.
Washington has an odd shoulder stripe.
Rose Bowl always looks great.
Michigan, Iowa, looked good.
Yeah.
Colors.
Penn State Northwestern.
Looked great.
Rain.
Hurricane.
Texas, West Virginia.
and that's what two college uni should look like.
LSU Auburn, somebody tweeted about this at Jordan Hare.
I liked it, but I don't like when you have the small font name of your team above your number,
when it's big and in your face like Texas or Sooners or State.
I can get on board with that.
Unfortunately, during your time at Virginia, you wore a very, like size eight font,
cavaliers.
It said cavaliers, which is even worse.
Roman.
I see that off the backs of the jerseys on names.
It's like the font is way too small.
And I saw it last night.
Even Tampa Bay has buccaneers over the number that works because it's big enough.
But it's a little tiny Auburn and a little tiny LSU.
Can I give you a red light?
Yeah, dog.
Fucking Saints black lids, dude.
Awful.
Awful.
Did you fucking forget to bring your gold lids?
You put on the most beautiful uniform.
Might have been a Bevel Conway, even despite the purple uniforms and everything.
Those look great.
Yeah, you like them.
Yeah.
Are we hard on the Vikings on this show?
Well, not me, you know, I got them in the Super Bowl.
Sometimes I almost jumped in for Skull Nation yesterday.
That would sound about right.
When you were going in.
Coolest cheer.
Definitely not on my side in many things.
But yeah, I just retweeted something about you.
Thanks you.
I appreciate it.
Thank you.
So here's the deal.
You're my honorary captain.
Thank you.
I appreciate it.
The black helmets are fucking ugly saints.
Don't wear those again when you wear those beautiful all white get-gittos.
I was even thinking the fleur-de-lee might need.
A bit of a renovation, not a major renovation, but maybe it needs to get a little thicker.
Oh, did I have the Vikings in the playoffs this year?
I'm sure you did.
Yeah.
You know, another uni that y'all don't like that I like for some reason.
It doesn't make sense that I like it.
It's the Jags.
And Philly Jags look cool in the rain.
Yeah, the rain looks awesome.
But my award goes to Giants Bears.
Giants, the throwbacks with the Giants Bears.
Oh, yeah.
Bears classic, always.
I just didn't know you
I thought you had given out your award
George Hallis I was building up
okay it's a good build up
I I uh you know
I thought uh the Lions
WCF stood for Wayne C fonts
it doesn't
Oh yeah that was funny as shit
William Clayford
That was funny as shit
Yep
Shout out to Wayne Fonts
Wayne Fons
Who invented Times New Roman
No he invented
That's good
Yeah he did
That's good
That's good
That's good
real quick green light backlit TVs it's a new trend very cool backlit TVs a shout
out to Joe my brother-in-law he had a beautiful backlit TV it's easy on the eyes man
and what does that mean it's like white LED light behind your TV that casts light on the
wall behind the TV so it softens I think it's good for your retina cool and like Tua on the
way back they should have had a back backlit TV watching McGruber but that was a as a
a beautiful, beautiful setup.
I'm gonna get a backlit TV.
I'm green lighting that.
So if you're at home, you have one,
if you know, you know.
Red light, blue light.
What's that?
Just generally, you just don't like it.
It keeps you awake at night.
Yeah, it's horrible.
As your brain's pinballing around at night.
And by the way, you know,
because of travel yesterday,
we couldn't actually get on Zoom,
myself and Nicole are back.
But I wanted to give her a chance
to do a victory lap.
Because of what we talked about earlier in the show, Kansas, the Jayhawks, Rock Chalk, big goofy bird, big yellow beak.
They're hosting Game Day.
Pat McAfee's going to be screaming in Lawrence.
It's going to be awesome.
Nicole, take it away.
Chris, I'm so sad that I can't be on the show live today, but I had to send you this voice memo because our Kansas Jayhawks are ranked.
our weeks-long effort for America's team has finally come to fruition.
The Jayhawks checked in number 19 on this week's AP poll, which by the way, clearly is an
overcorrection from the voters who could have had them somewhere in the 20s last week.
But I do think we have successfully shamed every single voter who did not put Kansas on their
ballot.
They are finally ranked.
They also, by the way, are going to host Game Day for the first time.
I feel like you said this, I've said this, we all feel it.
Kansas football is America's team.
And I understand that there's people out there who don't like that they're fun,
who don't enjoy Jalen Daniels.
Okay, and again, it was a little bit of an off day against Iowa State,
but they hung on there, they got the win, they're still 5 and 0.
But in general, it's been a very fun team to watch.
Maybe you don't love the Lance Lippold story,
which, again, how could you not?
I mean, you win, you win at such a big level.
Division III, you go to Buffalo, you turn things around, go to Kansas,
turn things around, builder, great person to talk to.
Again, maybe you hate all of that.
Maybe you're a Missouri fan, whatever it is.
Maybe you're saying, listen, they've had a lot of success with basketball,
and they don't deserve this.
They're not allowed to be good at both sports at once.
again this is a very very very small minority of people i think the rest of the country has fully
embraced the jahawks there was so much celebration of laurence getting to host game day
the fact that kansas is finally ranked the cowards did it this is america's team and i am so
excited that we are part of it i will be working on getting us t-shirts and the proper gear
because even if they lose in the next couple weeks,
I do think they're going bowling regardless at this point.
They've already got five wins.
They're going to factor in in the chaos that will unfold in the big 12.
And I just think we can be proud Kansas Jayhawk football fans.
Rock Chalk.
