Welcome to the show. Welcome to the show. Welcome to the live show. I got to be honest, it was a little hectic football wire to wire and I got some tape to watch tonight. But to give you what I did see, I saw the international game right off the bat. I thought that was a big, big win for the Colts. Like in a spot that we said coming in would probably be a little bit muddy for him. That's a few good quarterbacks this year that you've seen. seen Jeff Lulberg's group kind of confused. You get them in a third and longer, tough group to pick up those chunks against. You know, I don't think either team connected on a third down until probably the fourth quarter. Was it like fourth quarter, third, fourth fucking quarter? That was

crazy. But yet, that game was a dead over. That was crazy because that, you know, the run game, really for both teams at times was, was pretty damn good. Jonathan Taylor is in the MVP. conversation, you know, like, which to give that consideration to a running back is kind of like winning the MVP for a running back, if that makes sense, because they just don't win it. It's not really an award you think about running backs as being, but I thought they could have gotten whatever they wanted on the ground with Jonathan Taylor. And they did in the second half, that 83-yard touchdown run. It encapsulates why he's so valuable.

He's the home run threat a la Sequant Barkley. you load the box, you try to, you know, you try to take care of him at the line of scrimmage. And if he breaks two tackles, he's gone because, you know, even at his age, I think he probably still runs four four. It's just he's, he's one of a kind. And that was an incredible performance from him. Also a gutsy performance from Daniel Jones, right? Like, you know, he's got blood in his mouth.

It looks like he's been sipping on some cona ice, Tiger's blood. And, you know, when his, you know, when his, you know, Other people bleed it like kind of looks cool. He just looked like he had a bunch of fucking blood in his teeth. But that was a gutsy win for the Colts. I mean, you talk about like everything that went on this week for them, distraction of sauce Gardner coming in, getting him onboarded.

I thought he was great in this game in spots like, you know, they didn't really go at him per se, but I thought the ball found him on a third down at one point. He almost had a pick. Great break on the football. But I think the immediate. effect of sauce gardener in this game is more man coverage i don't know if my eyes deceived me but it felt like they played man coverage half the game and you know i looked it up and it said 45% cover

one but uh that almost like seemed like a typo it's like almost like it's too too high to jump from like around 20% cover one on the season um you know and and arumo they run a multitude of stuff but like the immediate return on investment without Charveraus Ward out there is like we're going to man people up now I do think it had something to do with the fact they're playing the falcons and we said this last week if you man up Michael Pennix because of kind of the pastor that he is at this stage in his career and I knew I said this Thursday I got mad at my own people because I was like it got clipped and everything and we made it a social but like I was like is Michael Pennix the guy you know And it's always early to ask that question,

but I ask that question because I don't know that Rahim Morris lasts the season, depending on how Arthur Blank views this stuff. The Falcons are so inconsistent. That's the tantalizing thing about this roster and this team. If there's a change at some point, you know, he's not somebody's pick anymore. He has a first rounder. They're going to give him a lot of time,

but I'd like to see him be further along than he is right now. I think when you man this guy up, and today was evidence, that six of 14, 61 yards, and a 56% rating. So just not very good. And the tape backs it up. He's just not precise enough. And at times he really lets balls kind of get away from him.

You know, listen, Colts had a lot of mishaps offensively, let this team hang around in the game. That's two weeks in row that the Colts have been kind of sloppy, but they found a way to win it. The return game was big for them. You know, they had a couple big kick returns. Josh Downs Fielding. A shorter punt was big.

I mean, like little things like that, they found ways to win, even when the offense was sloppy, when they got in the plus territory in the red zone and that sort of thing, fumbled the football, all that stuff. Fourth down conversions were difficult for them. So hats off to Jeff Albrecht, who's, I mean, honestly, having a pretty damn good year, considering, you know, it's not a star-studied group up front.

I think the rookies are playing pretty well. I think Walker is playing pretty well. He's come a long way from preseason. So just kind of all over the map here. but I'll give you one more big one was for the Colts. Tyler Warren, they have found somebody special in that guy there. To go to him on fourth and two,

I think it was an overtime. I mean, that ball, it's honestly like the way that Rogers should use Washington, darno Washington. Just the catch radius on this guy's insane. Now I'm not liking two players to one another. One is an athlete. I mean, you know,

when I talk about Warren being gronky, I mean, it's just the sheer size of the guy. Like, you know, he is the closest thing to gronk I've seen since gronk, if that makes sense. Unless I'm forgetting somebody, the guy is from a frame standpoint, so tough to maneuver around at the catch point. And then he has the athleticism. He's got a little basketball player in him. You know, give him the ball, the hand him the ball. He'll get in the wildcat.

So, you know, modern offense with kind of a gronky dude and there's a lot of fun, especially when you've got a bunch of big receivers outside and everything that Indianapolis can do. to affect you. So I just thought, you know, like they're not always going to be perfect for the Colts. And this is the Falcons, man. This year they've made a couple quarterbacks look kind of bad, and they made Daniel Jones look bad for a while, but they found a way to win because that's a very good football team. And that's the strength of having a good football team. It's not all about the quarterback, right? We so often boil everything down to quarterback narratives, but they don't need Daniel Jones to be a top five quarterback. They need to be a top 10 quarterback. You know, fringe top 10 will do with this group.

Another guy I want to shout out Zaire Franklin. He was fantastic in overtime. Made two big plays. Made a big play, I think, on first down, forcing getting in on a TFL and then third down, making a big hit in the backfield, bring him pressure. And so, you know, like just a team effort for the Indianapolis Colts. And that's a big wing going to Germany and having hit the curveball, find themselves in a dogfight early with the Falcons.

So that was a fun game, fun game in the morning. one of the most fun games of the day in a slate that was otherwise pretty shitty. We'll get to the best game of the day, which is going to be Tampa Bay in New England in a second, but I wanted to hit you on Baltimore, Minnesota. This is one I felt like I was seeing this week, and it kind of worked out that way. You know, I thought this was a game where Baltimore was no need to overthink it. They're playing a lot better than they were before the buy, especially defensively. They're a little bit stouter of a unit in general, but moving Kyle Hamilton into the box,

and letting him play football has been a lot of fun to watch. You know, he saw him today adding on certain pressures. I think on third down, one of the bigger third downs of the game. He beats Mason inside and gets a piece of the ball. I mean, he's just everywhere. And, you know, Gilman makes a play on Justin Jefferson's hands in the end zone. Justin Jefferson, by the way, very frustrated in this game. I don't blame him.

You know, he just can't quite find a quarterback that he likes catching the ball from. And so far, JJ has been an upgrade. But I just don't think he's quite there yet. And the Ravens defensive backs today were all over Justin Jefferson. Naylor had a big day. But I thought, you know, like Awusier made some plays on Jefferson. It wasn't like it was always doubles. You know, they just played them.

They played them tight. And so I thought this was a big win on the road for the Baltimore race. Havens playing a team that last week and the Vikings was just hot, man. They just knocked off Detroit who went. It was a bloodbath in Washington up there. Dan Campbell, actually, by the way, called the plays today, unless I'm being punked. I saw him in the post-game press or talking about, hey, you know, we tried something different today. There were some rummins that he called the plays.

So we'll see what that yields. But, you know, you see a crack in the door when it comes to, you know, the bullies on the block in the NFC North. and then this week you meet a whole different bully, which is the Ravens. And I thought the Ravens showed a lot of maturity offensively this week. You know, they were conservative at times. You know, they were going to,

Brad Flores is going to bring blitz. He's going to bring extra rushers. Early on, it was early downs. You know, mixed in a couple third downs where they'd mug up and then bail out and play coverage behind it. And then the pressure came, and the pressure came.

And the pressure came. I thought Todd Munkin did a great job. in the third quarter and into the second half of taking what, you know, they were given, you know, the Ravens offensively. And Lamar just being cool and calm back there. I mean, there's a lot of bodies back there, a lot of traffic. A lot of the plays that they hit on today were underneath things that you had to, you know, runs after catch like Zay Flowers, a little checkdown, a little dart out on the perimeter versus pressure, stuff like that. I thought the late leak in the high red to tight end to get them down into low red was big. Third and one, you know, you had the toss to Lamar where you put a big guy under center and then toss the ball to Lamar Jackson, creativity.

Quarterback sweep down in the red zone, right, following it up with the same look down there in the low red and then passing the ball out of it. So I just thought Todd Munkin had a very good day. and to be honest, I thought Zach Gore had a pretty good day. So, you know, and that's a big check in the win column for the Ravens because not only you surging to get back into this division, and I believe they're going to win it, hopefully the Chargers help them out tonight.

Need the Chargers to help your boy Chase long out tonight. But I also think it's a good thing for the coaching staff, right? They've been kind of under scrutiny. And yes, it's about players making plays, is about moving Kyle Hamilton in the right spot. It's about getting guys back. And there's things that the coaching staff has bungled, like not playing Keaton Mitchell for like the first four or five games

of the season. He looks like an immediate kind of impact player for them. I mean, why wouldn't he if you've watched Keaton Mitchell play? He got some looks today and looked really good in the process. But, you know, the point being to go into Minnesota's house like that and play a pair of coordinators who I think are two of the best in the, in the entire league. When you look at Kevin O'Connell

and you look at Brian Flores and really to out duel them, I thought that was awesome. Lamar only took one sack. That's big on the road going up there and playing, taking one sack. A far cry from the last time

they saw a really blitz-happy team that I remember that had success against them in Detroit, Shepard brought a ton of pressure in prime time. And if you remember, Lamar was a little bit off-kilter. I think they found different ways

to do it this game. I do want to shout out Van Ginkle. I talk about him a lot, but this defense just looks a lot better with him in it. Minnesota, I know they have aspirations beyond this Sunday, right? So we'll talk about going forward for them. JJ just has to continue playing well, but the defense, or JJ has to continue improving. But the defense, to me, got a lot better when Van Ginkle came back in the game. You know, you can see in situations where, you know, Lamar is trying to, you know, throw the ball out to the perimeter. There's like an RPO that got kind of messed up. He steps in there.

the window. You know, he bluffs like he's rushing and steps into the window on a third down when you've got pressure on. He's just a very smart player. I love watching him play, chasing Lamar down in the red zone. One of my favorite players to watch, actually two of the league's premier Swiss Army knives playing in that game, Kyle Hamilton, and I will put Van Ginkle in that category of being an elite Swiss Army knife. So JJ, got to play better, three picks, a couple of arm punts. And I, thought, you know, we can't talk about Minnesota without the penalties, you know, a ton of false starts today. How do you do that at home? You know, that's really,

that's home field advantage that's supposed to dictate that doesn't happen to you. And it happened to all day. And you wonder if it's cadence issue or, you know, it's, it's, operations issue. But just sloppy. You can't expect to beat a team like that doing that at home. I like some of the throws he made early in the game. But as the game went on, they were just a little off kilter. And I thought at times, like coming out of the half, this is the worst. You want to talk about middle eight, you know, before the half, they get the ball and punt it with under a minute to go. I think they eat up like a couple seconds off the clock, give it back to Baltimore who goes down and kicks a field goal, right? And then out of the half, I think you had the

fumble and the kickoff return. Maybe not right out of the half, but it was an ugly, ugly sequence for them, you know, the false starts, the fumbles, the third and one. one, you know, a lot of those money downs, Minnesota didn't do a good job on the third and one that turns into a pick, kind of playing with your food there. I know it's shot territory, but like, and, you know, Jefferson falls down or whatever it was, but a lot of those third and shorts, fourth insuredsage didn't bring their air game. I think they had a fourth down that they're off the field on a penalty. They don't get it anyways. So just not great. Just not great for Minnesota. And this is a crazy league. Week to week teams play up and they play down. And that's what happened

in Minnesota this week. They played their best game last week. And the opponents, as I talked about last week, and Detroit helped them out by playing like shit.

our respect. Everyone's respect now. And, you know, I was kind of like put my toe in the water on this thing, you know, I thought the Bucks would find a way to win this game. And to go down there on the road, although I will say this, there's a lot of snowbirds down in that fucking state in Florida. And at times, I was wondering, like, the crowd noise was kind of funny. Pat's fans travel well, and they also live in Florida, dude. I saw some old ladies with New England t-shirts, and sun tans in the in the stands so you know there's some locals there but i thought they traveled well um i thought they kept their cool the patriots did in big spots early on it was raining a little bit it felt like tampa was controlling the damn weather like it was the Truman show

and you know they ended up just overcoming some of those kind of those drives that looked like you know is drake not perfect today and he wasn't but he found a way to improve as the game went on and the weather cooperated for him a little bit. At times, I was like Googling his hand size and shit. I was like, what's going on here, dude? Like, is he? But no, he's the same Drake May. Just a couple bad third and longs early in the game where Tampa had him behind the sticks. But I thought he was great down the stretch. You know, didn't bite the cheese after the game. They're chanting MVP in the stadium. Another New England fans have taken over Raymond James thing. He didn't bite the cheese. And he was like, I think they might be talking about Baker the whole thing. But at this point in the

season, he probably would be the MVP, considering what he's doing with who he's got. You know, I haven't seen the Bills game yet, and this is very topical because it's an AFC game, AFC East game. And I think at this point, like New England's in the driver's seat, but Josh loses Kincaid today, and, you know, that's the result. You got to do more, even if you don't have as much outside, even if your team's depleted. I think New England coming in this season, Most people were like, I don't know. The wide receiver room might kind of hold them hostage. And they found a way to work around it by having answers versus the Blitz.

That's one way. And they had answers all day to day versus the blitz. We talked about it at length coming in the game. Todd Bowles, early downs, third downs, you know, and really facing off with one of the best brightest young quarterbacks in the league who's done a great job against the Blitz. And he did that today, especially early. You talk about like in the first half, let's see if he can,

handle the blitz. He's four of six for 120 and a touchdown with 150 passer rating basically. Drake may shred the blitz. And there were third downs late, third mediums, third and longs, backbreaking third downs, where they just had answers. And going on the road

for a young quarterback in converting in big spots is just, I mean, it's, I don't know, I don't know what the word would be. It's, it's, if you're a New England fan, this thing is real. your guy's real. And the team is real.

The team is real because they've got a really solid defense, right? We talk about this a lot, that front four. And yeah, they gave him a 50-yard rusher today and all that. But whoopty-do. Christian Gonzalez, I know Abuka, you know, had a bunch of yards and that sort of thing, but it felt like in key spots, the coverage was great, including at the end of the game on fourth and three, not banking Kate Auden.

I forget who that was. It was it was Gonzalez and Woodson. And they found a way not to be penalized on what was like a blow-up hit and you had to separate Aten from the ball. And they, you know, kind of sandwiched him. But they found a way not to commit a penalty. And it's a little thing, but I'm watching this young team kind of grow up. And they play like adults because of their coaches.

I mean, look no further in the end of the half. The Mike Frable gamesmanship, sure, you do. reduced the chances of getting a touchdown by 25%, but he runs the clock down to nothing. It ensures that Tampa's not going to get the ball back and think he's scoring before the half. And the stones to do that, we'd all be second guessing if they don't make the play, it comes down to fourth down and you're trusting your acquisition this offseason, Stefan Diggs. That's what Stefan Diggs wants.

Put the ball in my fucking hand with the game on the line. Put the ball in my hand in the biggest spots in the game. And he did a little short motion. they get the switch he's got outside leverage they throw the fade um just just a thing of beauty and uh executed perfectly and you talk about the middle eight like coming out of the half and uh and knocking that big run down like knocking that big run off you're talking about your rookies man holy shit there's some speed on the field with the new england patriots we we talked a lot about the receivers maybe not being blazing fast but this could signal a little bit of a shift for

them and i know henderson's kind of you know the injuries to stevenson and the fumbles at times but like it it's felt like they've been resistant to give him a heavy workload i know he's not a great past protector i'd have to look back and see how he protected today against the blitz but i thought the explosives make this a little bit more terrifying you know when you play the patriots and this kid's on the field he's the type of guy hey 32's on the field you know um and you talk about the double team that Moses and those guys on the right side set for him on that long run out of the half. That's the thing of beauty. And then Tonga on the toss, that's the backbreaker there.

You know, that game, they might have to give the ball back to the bucks who do a great job in those spots. But, you know, to be able to throw another explosive run up there and ice the game. And to be fast enough running 21.22 or 21. I'll never be that fast. So I don't know what the difference is between. 22 miles an hour and 21 is. But it was like 21.78 miles per hour. And this guy's galloping down the sideline.

And he has time to slow down and look at the sidelines. It be like, should I get down? By the way, yes, you should get down. It turned out to be a great hands team situation by digs at the end of the game. But just wild, man. Like wild to think that this team who had some injuries and had to turn to rookies seems to have gotten better. Like the Kyle Williams thing, that's an early down again. Here it is. Bowles are going to bring pressure. They do a great job of it on early downs.

They miss the pass rush that they have with Hassan Reddick on the field for sure. They miss Cancy, who's long gone now at this point. They didn't make a move at the deadline. The bucks just can't quite get pressure. And they didn't get pressure today on that long play to Kyle Williams. There's seven guys at the line of scrimmage. And so one guy has to win. they sneak the crosser behind Tykey Smith and and you got man coverage and I mean that's a different gear dude so to have those guys on the field like we'll see where you go from here but that that's pretty impressive for New England it's got to be gratifying your coaches you got answers for the blitz your time management's fantastic you know your defense is motivated they're playing

clean um and and in the biggest moments you were you were nails on the road I mean, seven straight at this point for the New England Patriots. Take a fucking bow. Take a fucking bow. Unbelievable. And for the bucks, they're not dead. You know I love the bucks. They're not dead.

That's a very good team you just lost two. Newsflash. Now the Pats are starting to be a barometer for certain teams. But I don't think the Bucks were really going to know who they are until they're fully healthy. I just don't. And I still think they're going to struggle defensively in some spots. I think Todd Bowles is a great coordinator to keep the points down the way he has at times. You can really see by adding those main corners that they were able to add this offseason

that at least it gives them a fighting chance in some games that the offense has let them down in so far. And how much of it is losing Liam Cohen, you know, at this point in the season, you've got eight, nine games on the new coordinator. I think part of it is losing your weapons and Godwin and Evans and Irving. Think about all the guys they lost. They got Getty key back today. But geez, how much can you do? They don't really get any tight ends outside of Otton involved.

Sean Tucker's a nice player. He's definitely a guy that's good to have when you have injuries in the backfield. But like, they just don't have a ton of guys that scare you in their current form. Tess Johnson's doing a nice job filling in. And this is a hot take. I've been saying this all year. Baker's playing well, but he's not playing like he's had the really high highs. so it gives people the impression like, man, he's playing an MVP level.

I get it and I love Baker. But, you know, there is enough, there is enough sloppiness to this offense in its current form that if they don't get guys back and this is what they look like, they look more like a one and done than a contender. And I hate to say that because I love the bucks, but in their current form. Now, if they get Irving back, Irving, if they get Irving back, if they get Irving back, if they get, you know, Godwin back for more than a game at a time, if they get Evans back at some point here. And there's a lot of ifs. I think they're fucking scary. I mean, I think the Patriots are very good team. And that was a 21-16 ballgame for a very long time. They stood up in the red zone,

pick Drake May off and that sort of thing. Like, that's a tough team. They'll be back. But the Patriots are a very good team right now in this form, right at this moment. And they're better than the bills right now at this moment. I know the bills went to Kansas City. We got really excited about that matchup, but you know what the interesting thing about the NFL this year is, it might not be about how the chiefs play. It's, there's, this thing kind of wide open. So the bills might have, you know, the bills might have made up some ground. And I know they beat them every year in the regular season, but they're, there's reason to believe that matchup swung their way a little bit for some very subtle reasons. But it might not matter if you can't beat the Patriots,

if you can't win your division. I can't wait to see that second game. That's going to be wild. I don't have to look at the bills game. No, they sleptwalk today. But talk about another team, if they don't get guys back, if they don't get healthy. So, anyways, that is that is that. I mean, there's some other games there. I thought I had one eye on the Bears game.

Good for the Bears. Good for the Bears. Good for Caleb Williams. Bad for the Giants who have now blown like a 50-11 fucking, 10 point leads in the second half this year. It's a bad deal. You wonder why. Oh, yeah, because the secondary is not great.

Oh, yeah, because the scheme's not great. And I look forward to looking back at that game. Caleb had some, he had some real rips off platform. He always does. My take on him is he might not be an elite quarterback at this point in his career or yet, but boy, does he make some like elite cool looking fucking plays for whatever that's worth. I mean, watching him throw the ball is a lot of fun. They did it in the snow today.

It was also beautiful weather in Chicago. My side tonight, people are asking what my side tonight is. My side is the chargers, guys. It's a perfect spot to fade the Steelers after that big win, which now feels like 30 years ago. And there's Antonio Gates, dapping up Mike Evans. Antonio Gates, super cool fucking guy, by all accounts.

Rocking the denim shirt tonight. It's good to be Antonio Gates. Hey, listen. Yeah, if it's not too late, but the Chargers, if you don't want to, no big deal, you don't have to. I sure hope they win, though. Over under. I gave out the under, but I'm so scared of totals right now

because it feels like to me, there was a point in the 4 p.ms. it was at 5.30 in the 4 p.ms. The score of those games, and this is a good, good thing to bring up as a Seahawks, 530 was 78 to 3 between the good teams and the bad teams in the 4 p.m. windows. There were two plays. I think the Matrix glitched at one point in that Seattle game because the same fucking play happened twice and it ended with Tank Lawrence scoring a touchdown.

Now, do you remember when that stadium was that Questfield? What is it now? No, it was CenturyLink. Now it's Questfield. Lumenfield, they make up your minds. Fucking hipsters. But I love this Seahawks team. You know I do.

Boy, I thought there was too many points with the way the Cardinals were playing. No, it wasn't. It doesn't help when you give up two touchdowns on offense in the first half, and you can't punch the ball. That third quarter was crazy. For a second there, I thought we'd have a game, or at least the cover was in play for the Cardinals. But the Seahawks defense, there was at one point,

one of the role players made a play. Of course, the Chargers start the game by kicking the ball out of fucking bounds. Great job, buddy. He's been sitting around the hotel all day, just eating, playing video games. Everybody else is studying or sleeping because they're tired because they play football for a living.

this guy trots out and kicks the ball out of bounce that's so we started our Sunday night but the Seahawks man like everybody on that defense plays well everybody on that defense plays well makes plays i think mike macdonald might end up being one of the dudes i mean he's already well on his way to be one of the dudes and for seattle let them get home field advantage and you will be sorry Let them get home field advantage. You will be fucking sorry because that place is hell to play in. And in the start of McDonald's tenure, they were not great at home.

And now all of a sudden, they're starting to jump people at home in the first half and then put it in cruise control. And they were able to run the ball a little bit better today. I'll be interested to look at the All-22 to see how much the Shaheed presence changes the way, you know, defenses play this group. Well, at least John Gannon, how he played this group. because, yeah, one more weapon makes them scary. You just saw the way Dallas looked against that defense the other night at home.

I mean, Seattle uses the whole field. I mean, and they played fast. And you know what? Anytime I'm on the under, and I threw a couple on the under, wasn't seeing the board. It happens. And then I turn the game on and I hear Kevin Harlan's voice. I'm like, dude, no, it's not going, it's not going under anymore.

This is, he's here to call a game this going way over. And he did. Anyways, that's that. The Rams are wagon. The Hawks are wagon. They play what next week or the week after or something like that? That's going to be a damn, that's going to be a slugfest boy. Slugfest.

I like the Hawks. I almost wish the Hawks didn't look so damn good today because I think the Hawks won that game. But we'll see. All right, y'all. Enjoy this game. Let's go Chargers. Go, Chargers, go.

Jared Rice, I've been tailing you guys a good amount this year. Thanks for your service. Thank you for betting the board, man, because honestly, what's our record now? Not today, but we were like 20 games over 500 or something like that? As a Thursday? As a Thursday? Picking five a week? We're 19 now.

That's not negligible. Nope. Just tail, backdoor cover. Yeah, backdoor cover comes out on Saturdays. I love you all. I love you all.
