aka Stapp Baby, along with your host, Mace and Cam. And today, we are joined with our analysts, Arabia. Hi, how are you? Good, how are you? Hey, Mace. Doing amazing, thank you. Keep it just like that. What's up, murder? Yeah, I could tell.

I know, I know. Yeah, just like that. No, it's probably better because we can't hear you so we should just do the whole show like that. His mouth is just moving. I think the show would be better just like that.

Would you say murder? What happened, Mace? Huh? Yeah. Yeah, I like it better like this. I like it way, I like it way better like this. We can't hear you murder. Okay, well, Mace, glad to have your audio back

because I'm sure you have a lot to say regarding this first game that we're going to talk about. It's just the way things work out sometimes. It's funny. Okay, so we're going to start with the Chiefs. They defeated the Commanders 28 to 7. So, Arabia are going to let you go first. What do you think are the Commander's biggest issues?

And then do you think that the Chiefs are going to be on an uphill winning streak from now on. Oh, my goodness. One thing to pick for the commander's biggest issue, consistency. But I think we're just seeing that around the league because first half, I was really excited. I'm not going to lie, they had me in the first half. I was very excited to see that commanders' defense that were flying around. I like what I saw from our linebackers. I like what I saw from our, from our defensive line. I even like how I saw Marcus Marriota. That first interception that happened wasn't his fault. That was on Debo Samuel, but I guess I would just say my defense.

Something needs to happen there. The linebacker room used to be my favorite room, but now it seems to be very unreliable, very inconsistent, very up and down. And the second half belong to the chiefs. I'll score the commanders 21 to zero. So do I think that the chiefs are on the up and up? They've won three games in a row, starting with the Lions, then they beat up on the Raiders, and now the commanders, they have the bills coming up. So we really have to see, you know, outside of the Lions win, which was a good one,

I think they won 30 to 17. We got to see November 2nd if they went against the bills, if they're actually on that up and up, or if they're going to stall against a pretty good team. So we'll see. They could be heating up at the right moment to try to claw their way into the playoffs. I know she didn't say crawl into the playoffs. We're the team of the AC, I mean, the AFC.

There's nobody else that could beat us. And the AFC, I got to just bring y'all up to speed, you know. I told you all this in week three, you had cam talking crazy, mediocrity, all of this kind of talk. The chiefs are back. I told you once we got worthy back and once we got our other, you know, we got rice back, it was going to be a problem. This is exactly what I foresaw. We're flowing on all cylinders. I don't care what nobody say.

I'm not trying to hear it. I got my in ears in. Listen, listen. The Chiefs is the team to beat. Everybody know all roads lead to Kansas City. So enjoy the regular season, ladies and gentlemen, because all roads lead in Kansas City. Look at Patrick Mahomes.

It's quarterback. Look at the numbers. Cam, it's the first quarterback to 225. I don't know how many times I have to prove this. And why am I saying this? Because we didn't get the championship point. We was right there. But I'll settle for a 28-7 win over the commanders.

But that was my second team. So I don't really like beating up on my little brothers. You know, but every now and then you got to remind niggas. I don't care about any way. First of all, makes y'all in third place. Stat teams are first. My team's in second year in third place. You're the seventh in the conference.

mediocrisy. It's not even mediocrisy. I'm not feeling into what you have to say. You said what you have to say. I said what I had to say. Arabia, I'm saying what I have to say. Arabia, I'm sorry that, you know, I'm, you know, even though you picked the commanders

to be nine and seven, you said, nine and eight, they have a lot of injuries, you know. Look, I'm more on what you're going through. But at least we got flacco. The Mario is stinking it up. You know, he's all right, but, you know, you can run with the Jaden Daniels shit and he ain't there.

Just run with it. It's cool. I would run with it. I would run with it for a minute. You know what I'm saying? But as far as Mesa's concerned, I'll start watching the game at halftime. I'm not even going to say it and hold you.

It was tied up at halftime. I said, look, I got shit to do. This game is boring. Jaden Dene's is a plan. But what I did see, and no, I don't want a lot of my viewers like I watched the whole game. But I will say this,

the Chiefs are looking very, very good the last couple of weeks, but I have to agree with Arabia. The real test will be next week. So the one thing I will say about that game coming up is that the bills always seem to get it done against the Chiefs in the regular season. To me, it's an important game for the regular season. Josh, pardon me, Josh Allen, you have to beat Patrick Mahones in the playoffs, bro. You beat them in the regular season a couple times.

Are you ever going to beat them in the play? So even if the bills win that game, which is an important game because it fucks with standards and everything else at the rest of the end of the season, it has to count the playoffs. Now, as far as the team and it's a bunch of teams in the AFC now, look, we're looking at Indianapolis looking good. Surprisingly, the bills aren't even in first place in their division. The fucking Patriots are in first place in the division, which is actually very, very shocking. Bill's in third in the division, I mean, in the conference.

I said to the division, I meant that the Patriots are first in the division with the bills. But in the conference, Kansas City is like seven, seven faith in the conference. I don't know. I can't say none about Kansas City. Mason's going to sit there and says the team to beat. That's what he said, even though he quit on them week three, week four, title town was on the move. Yeah, we had a second chance. We was giving them a head. He had the whole second chance and everything else. He had a second team and then when they They won two games.

You're fast. You gotta give them a head start. Mace, it's a thing in movies is called stepping on lines. Like when you talk, I don't step on your lines. Every time I talk, you like to step on my lines. I don't do it. It's just, you know, when you do movies, you learn stuff like that. It's called you stepping on somebody's lines.

I don't step on your lines. I know I'm long-winded, but I don't step on your lines. You always step on my lines. You never let me talk ever. I don't do that to you, man. that to you, man. So I understand you how he was going to curve the chiefs and everything else.

But I will say this, you have a reason to be excited considering how the season started for the Kansas City Chiefs. This is a reason to be excited. But you're in third place in division. That's why Rayby alluded to crawl into the playoffs. Because right now, I don't know if y'all going to be in the playoffs at the position you're in this. this particular moment. You're not leaving leading the division. See, usually, when you lead,

not usually, when you lead the division automatically you're in the playoffs. Do you think, let me ask you this, Mace. You're guaranteed. Let me ask you a guarantee. Are y'all going to win this division? Let me ask you this. Cam, we'll be in the playoffs and we'll win the playoffs, can't. Everybody, listen, we're putting too much stock in things that don't matter. Like, When you talk about Buffalo, even if they win this game, we know in the playoffs, this is like James Hardin. And let me leave James Hardin out of this. No shot to James Harder. We just know that Josh is not going to do this in the playoffs against Patrick Mahomes.

We know this. I don't know how many times we got to see this movie. You talk about acting. We know this movie. We know how it turns out. We know the confetti falls in Kansas City. It doesn't fall anywhere else. It's going to fall in Kansas City.

They're going to fall there last year, Arabia. Yeah, it absolutely did not. And in order for you to be in the movie, you have to make the cast. And the Kansas City Chiefs are unable to make the cast. You're not going to, you got to get the park. If you think about all the divisions, right, four divisions in the AFC.

So that's four teams right there. You might get two to come out of the AFC East. you might get two or three to come out of the AFC West. So you just got to be careful, make sure that you make the movie that you're talking about because you might not even make the cast. Yo, Rayby, you got, do you write rhymes? You know what's so funny?

I was like a fake rapper back in college. Like I had like songs recorded and all that. Because you got bars, yo. You do got bars. You got some right now? Thank you. You got something right now we can hear? I do, but I would never rap.

Like, that's not. my ministry no I'm good thank you maybe you know what you know what once we get to a million once we get to a million I got bars for you I'm a come in studio and and I got bars for you but for right now we just go on wait so we get to a million subscribers all right because yeah we definitely waiting on it we be hearing what she's saying it's like okay yeah she got a lot of slick talk man she's gonna be a battle right yeah she's saying a lot but I think when it comes down to it cam

This is Kansas City we're talking about. This is this is not play, play, play stuff. This is not play, play stuff. All roads lead to Kansas City is where confetti falls, man. This little win that the Philly got enjoyed at. All roads leads to Kansas City. Please advise the people. I mean, I'm not a Philly fan,

but I'm pretty sure that the Philadelphia fans are definitely enjoying their confetti. I believe they are. I can look at Gillie's page and see how happy that the Philly fans are still are considering. Well, Gilly won't be twirking this year. I bet that. He won't be twerking this year. I will say y'all do have a lot to be excited about and I'm not even here to rain on your parade. But I also think from this game, kind of like Arabia was saying, there were also some holes in y'all's offense too because it did come. kind of look like the commanders were potentially going to win the game until we got to that second half. So to say that nothing could ever happen and to say that no team in the AFC could

beat y'all when we've seen teams in the AFC beat y'all like the Jags, like the Chargers. Can't can't say that it won't happen because you never know. So I'm just saying. We're better than y'all right now. I'm just saying. We're better than you. We're still first in our division. I know, but that's because you're in a weaker division. That's so. The Raiders are in your division, do you know who's in your division? I think Mace doesn't understand

how the division works. No, I do. I'm just saying that the Steelers are four and three. We're five and three. We actually got more wins than them. That's just numbers. That ain't divisions. There's more numbers.

So I cut you up, but you're absolutely right. But unfortunately, that isn't how it works, Mace. You could be less than 500 and win the division and go to the playoffs. So you guys sit there and have a 12 and 5 record and somebody in another division have a 7 and 9 record. And if you win the division, you go to the playoffs

and you have over 500 record and you don't win your division and other teams are bad than you, you don't go to the playoffs. So numbers sometimes they mean something, but sometimes they don't depending on if you win the division. Also, Kim, this is a great turnaround. This is when you want to be playing well. They're celebrating how they were playing in week three. They're on the decline.

Most of these teams are on a decline. We're going to win this little division right here. The charges are not better than us, and the Broncos are not. I wouldn't say the Broncos are absolutely better than you. The Broncos are absolutely better than you. Yeah, they're playing better, but they're not better. You're all over the place.

This is when you start being on over the place. down the stretch is going to make sense. You can't see it right now. I'm going to let you shoot your movie. I'm going to play my role. And you just tell me when the credits roll, where we land in the credits, okay? I'm going to leave it at that.

I'm not going to bring on your offer break. You just say you're playing the best and then you say you're playing better than Broncos? That's what you said? No, I said the Broncos are playing better, but they're not the better team. They're just playing better right now. They don't have enough experience to beat us.

But you just said, y'all are playing better right now. Bo Nix won't beat Pat Mahomes. Remember, I told you this. Bo Nix won't beat Patrick Mahomes. Can we write that down, Nick? And put me on the tape for that. Bo Nix won't beat Patrick Mahomes. Are you playing better than the Colts?

These are, Indiana Jones is playing the best of me out of the whole football league. They won't beat us either. This is what I'm saying. You keep saying y'all are playing the best right now. And then you say it doesn't matter about right. No, no, no. I just said, I just said Indiana Jones and the Indiana Colts are playing the best to me right now.

I think Indiana Jones would be MVP to me. But I don't see them beating Patrick Mahon. Sometimes people are just playing well because it's regular season. I don't think they got the cashier to do it when it really counts. I understand that, Mace, but you just said nobody's playing better than y'all three minutes ago. That's why I named these teams the Broncos and the Colts. But now you're changing it to the playoffs. So that's what I'm saying.

Are y'all playing the best right now? I can give you further context for that. I think right now we're playing better to me, my opinion, my opinion. I'll just add my little two cents. I would definitely not argue that y'all's division is harder than ours. I do think that AFC North, especially when fully healthy, is one of the hardest divisions. And so the fact that if you guys are the best team, y'all should be at the top of your division with the Raiders, with the Broncos. Like, I wouldn't argue that.

But I hear you. I hear you. You know, you said right now. I think you're just not understanding me because I'm not using your football terminology. But when I'm looking at a team like the Indiana Coast and they got Jacksonville, Houston, and Tennessee, yes, that's just. great for that particular conference, but I don't mean you're actually paying better. You got you're in a weaker division. When I look at the Broncos, I look at the charges and I look at the chiefs. That's a much stronger division. That's what I'm saying. So when you, maybe I'm not saying

it the way you guys understand it, but just because you got better wins don't mean right now at this particular time you're playing better than us. No, I just think you got more wins. But as the season turns, you get in a groove and now you're in a better groove than somebody may have more wins than you. They may have more wins. Doesn't mean they're playing together better to me. That's what I understand. So somebody may say you got eight wins in a row, so you're playing better. And I'm like, no, this team, the things that they're figuring out, they're going to be a much better team at this point. And they look better to me at this point. The prefaces and Mesa's statement is to him.

I think we should focus on that. Mm-hmm. Well, I will give you your credit before we move on because your team is the only team that won this week, so everybody gonna feel how we feel about our teams, but we'll see as it progresses. That's what I'll say. Yeah.

Okay, so the Eagles beat the Giants 38 to 20. Arabia, how do you feel about the Eagles winning this game this game versus the Giants this time around. So this actually may be the best era of Eagles football and franchise history. If not the best era, then definitely one of the best eras in all of Eagles history. The Eagles are six and two or better through eight games for the fourth consecutive season, which is tied for their franchise record of a longest stretch. The last time they did it was the 1947 season through the

the 1950 season. So definitely, like you were saying, they're definitely enjoying their confetti falling. Not just that, like kind of when their expectation is Super Bowl or bust, when their expectation is winning the playoffs, when their expectation is to be the first team to win back to back in the NFC East for the first time since 2004 breaking the NFL record, then they definitely are enjoying their confetti falling. So shout out to the Eagles. I hope you guys are enjoying this really great era of Philadelphia football. But at what cost. It costs scataboo. And scataboo seems to be one of these figures in the NFL right now that a lot of people can kind of get behind because he blocks really well. He runs

really hard. He's just kind of like this caricature that everybody thinks is fun to watch with Jackson Dart. But he's out for the season, unfortunately. And just to speak to how much people actually really like him, Big Dom, who's the head of security for the Eagles, Big Dom visited Scat in the hospital. So that just kind of shows you the camaraderie that. is there for Skadaboo, just the brotherhood of the NFL. I know on the field is kind of like a violent hatred, sort of between two teams. But off the field, a lot of these people actually do enjoy their brotherhood of the game. So I hope Skadabu heals fully and quickly so that we can see him back on that field.

And yeah, shout out to the Eagles right now playing really good football season after season. What was your question against that? Because I was kind of engulfed in Kansas City. No, all good. Your brains stayed in Titletown. We see that. So how do you feel about the Eagles winning the game versus the Giants this time around? I don't really take this game as serious because when it comes to Philadelphia, I think they're like a way better team than when you're looking at the Giants. So this is like one of those games they're supposed to win. I wouldn't make much of it. But I do want to go back to my point.

When you look at the points that Kansas City is winning by, there's only one team that's winning by more points. So that was what I was trying to speak to last time. Indiana is the only person. And I know you stat, you're a stat person. And, you know, Arabia should know this as well. We're putting up the most points and wins right behind Indiana. So when I say we're playing better, that's what I'm talking about. Because you got win games by points.

So we're putting up the most points. And when they come to Philadelphia, they're doing a good job. but right under Indiana is Kansas City. So shout out to Philadelphia. Keep winning these non-important games. We'll see them again. We've got to get the get back. Yeah.

Now you learn something new every day. You've got to have the most points to win. So thank you, Marlowe for letting us know that. Look, Philadelphia look really good, man. I like Philadelphia. And the thing that to me that really helped, and we've been waiting for, for Saquan Walkley to have a.

a breakout game. And, you know, they've been figuring out Saquan Barclay this season. I think teams been preparing for them. 150 yards, not only him, Bigsby had 104 yards. They had a total of 275 yards running. And I think that's what really helped them win the game. Jaylen Hurst, even though I think he's a great quarterback, and I don't want to label him as a game manager because I think that he's more than that. But I think he does just what he's supposed to do for them to win the game. But to Arabia's point. Scataboo, you know, I've never seen, I'm not going to say that never, I can't say never. I remember OBJ trying to remember somebody who gained a lot of notoriety like their first few weeks in NFL.

Jackson Dart is doing it. I mean, because of the market as well, OBJ, you got to think about OBJ when he was in New York and made that one hand catch. That was, you know, he got a lot of recognition. But people fell in love with Scataboo. People are trying to fall in love with Jackson Dart. And they thought that these two would change the franchise around and everybody was very excited about it. And now the Scatterboo is out.

Of course, we don't want to see nobody get hurt. You know what I'm saying? But my quarterback's hurt. No disrespect, Scat, I hope you get better too. But I hope my quarterback get better. It's part of the game. Ain't no injury-free season, nigga. Just the way it goes.

Sorry, New York. But he was one of them players that they were like, oh, it's going to change the game, this, that third. Like, even like Arabia. We're just talking about the Brotherhood and it's a violent sport and it just goes to show. Fuck that.

Got hurt. That's that. He had a good six, seven games, my nigger, get better. I do want him to get back there. I'm not sharing no sympathy and niggas ain't saying nothing. Niggas ain't saying a prayer for Joe Burrow.

Niggas ain't giving him a shout-out. Niggers ain't saying nothing for Joe. Whatever. Get better. Giants wasn't going to do nothing anyway. We thought there was going to do something. Sorry, Nick. I'm sorry that you got to go through this as well.

Jackson Dart, You're trying to save your coach's job. You're the back of the division. I thought y'all would at least be bad in the Cowboys. And I'm not, I didn't say this the last few weeks. I've been saying the Cowboys look, I'm talking about at the start of the season, when we was giving Michael Irvin a hard time saying, y'all might be the worst team division. Y'all might be, no, it's the Giants.

They're the worst team division, but it's another New York team that's disappointing. What do we expect? Real quick, regarding Mike, we had to just pick on him a little bit just with the Cowboys. But I totally understand. understand where you're coming from, but I do want to ask you guys with Scataboo being out on a scale of one to 10, one being not worried at all, 10 being like, it's time to freak out. How worried should the Giants be as long as Scataboo is out? He's out for the season. I mean, so far, but go ahead. Yeah, I was going to say, I think, I think the Giants expectation coming in was that their defense would be the better side of the ball anyway. So I think it just puts more on their defense. to step up and be what they wanted them to be coming in anyway. There was thoughts about Russell Wilson coming in and Jackson Dart

and kind of a debate back and forth there. But I think with now, them seeing what Jackson Dart and Skadaboo could potentially have been, they're like, oh, snap, we like that. We wish you would have had that. But this just puts more on the defense to kind of carry them through games, I think. 10. They should really be thinking about 10. Because I don't think they have any other offense outside of that.

I think when you, that was what they was trying to work around and you need him there to open up the other players that are really like average players to me. I don't think they really have many superstars on that team just yet. I think they got a lot of young guys that could turn into something, but you need him to make everybody keep to feel honest. And when you don't have that, it's just people could double down and just drop back and cause a lot of problems for the other. where I receive us. I'm sorry. I'm done with the whole Scataboo shit. Shit was cool.

You know why? Because niggas, yo, when Scada Boo get to the league's that? I know, I'm just asking. Yeah, this year. This year, right? Yeah. What fucking resume do Scataboo have besides the first six weeks to say he was going to be this big time player that everybody's talking about? Now, yeah, we like what we've seen the first six weeks.

But it's like, Oh, Skada, but I'm not even talking about this show, I'm talking about period. Oh, fucking Skattaboo. The nigger just got here. He ain't Hershey Walker, he ain't Walter Payton. He ain't St. Cronny. He ain't fucking Derek, why are we?

Oh, man, scatty. Niggas, Nick's just fucking Scatty out there. Yo, my nigga, all right, he had a good six games, yo. Niggas act like he was going, he invented, reinvented the wheel. He got hurt, yo. We don't got no right. He's a hundred-fifth pick. My little nigger from the Raiders, now.

I can understand if there's a niggins from Gentie and all that. Because he's in New York, they're making a big deal about this. He has six good games. Cut it out with like Scatterboo is the savior. He's gonna save the shit. They was two and four with the nigger. I'm not jacking the scatterboo shit. How bad are they with, without Scatterbootterboo?

Bad. How bad would they with Scatterboo? Bad. It's the same bad. The niggas is bad. He's a scataboo, scataboo. And it's cause he's white, I don't care. It's because he's white, so straight up and down.

Some black nigger with these numbers is just because that's what black niggas do. Because he's white, they're making a big deal. Yeah, Nick, no, yeah, because he's white, scattaboo. Oh, niggas, ruff, oh, you're niggins, what's the move? Nick, scat, skat, skat, skat, skat, skat, nah, nigger, you've been six games, hundred fifth pick you cool, my nigger.

They're bad with him, they bad with him. I don't know about everything else. You know what I'm saying? Your murder, keep it tall. Niggas's been talking scatterboot? Like four weeks, and now he's the savior. He only averaged four yards. Pause, a carrier.

It's not like he's getting seven or averaging a first down. He's averaging half, less than half. You know why I'm murdered? Because it's like the nigg of Chris Rock said in a joke one time, man. You know, the nigga, Chris Rock said, excuse me, that, you know, he lives, for people don't know, I'm just give you real quick geographical lesson. Alpine, New Jersey's probably one of the richest counties

in New Jersey, one of the richest little cities over those. And Chris Rock said he had to host to Grammys to live there, do 200 movies to live there, host to Emmys, do a bunch of shit to live there. And he acts what his neighbor did, his neighbors said, I'm a dentist. He ain't invent teeth. he ain't invent

but to fill in the nut he's just a regular old dentist and live next to this nigga Chris Rock. So black niggas got to climb mountains to get to Alpine where a white nigga could just go be a dentist and go to work and live in Alpine. That's what I'm saying. Because this

nigga's white, it's magical. Ooh, it's not just four yards. It's rough. It's rugged. It's tough. Black niggas average is six, seven yards. It's no big. Big deal, man. I ain't Jack. Look, I'm mad to think.

I heard. I don't want nobody to be hurting all that. Six games in the NFL, it's the market. It's because he's white. They like him. Listen, that's just that. I hope he gets better, but I'm not going all crazy like they're about to change the whole division and win the division and go to the playoffs and win the suit.

No, man. He was cool. And he got one of them names, Scattaboo. So, you know, it's like a nickname almost. And so it's already catchy. Cam Scatabble. That was funny. The scat pack and all that.

Yeah, the scat pack and all that. Yeah. You just start doing all that shit, man. He's got a good name for a running back. Yeah. And it's Cam. You don't like the name Cam? You don't like them with that? I don't like white cams.

I think the nigga cool. I like the niggas as a player, but I'm just saying. I don't want to sit there and say I don't like the nigger name. I don't want to sit there and act like I don't like him. I don't have nothing against him. I thought he played good the games that he did, but I really don't like niggas acting like. The hype up.

The hype up. Yeah, I don't like it, bro. I don't like it. I don't like it at all. I don't like it. So you don't think he's been bawling? You don't think he's been bawling? Because Scott definitely, I mean,

stat definitely would think he would think he's been bawling. Mace, you just said it. He's only averaging. Why would you throw only in front of it? Why would you say only if he's been born? You don't say only. Because for the hype train, I would think he would be at least at six or seven yards. If you're going to actually give him that kind of hype, it got to be at least six to

seven yards, Paul is running for you to give him that kind of hype train. In New York, the media is so strong, you could do anything. This goes back to the New York Knicks and the New York Giants. If you're halfway good with New York media, it makes you a superstar. Yeah, the storyline in itself also shout out to the white cams, because they caught out. I would say it stupid.

I was like, they. You know, that this is the same. I don't care. He don't. That's what I'm like, man, why it can't happen to be like? It's something going on with the inside shit. I don't care.

That's that. Okay. Are the Ravens back? We will discuss after the break. Welcome back. Now let's get into our underdog picks of the day. So tonight the Hornets will play the heat. Underdog has lamella ball at 25 and a half points.

Do you have them? higher or lower Mace. Higher, anything with a Mello pause, we're gonna hire. This should be a breakout year for him. He's looking good this first beginning, these first few games, he's looking real good. The problem with Mello is that he's never healthy.

That's the only problem. But damn, first two, three games, the shit I've been seeing. This shit, this nigga looks like a globe trotter. Only reason I'm gonna go, I'm going to go higher. I was going to go lower because his assist is out of control too. He's not just shooting the ball while to pass. Yo, that nigger looks like he's not even taking none of this shit seriously.

He played throw through the legs, nutmegging niggas, pores, all type of shit. That niggas really, really talented, man. LaValle, you did a very good job with Mello, man. I just want to give you a shout out, man. But I'm going to go higher. Myles Bridges is at 19 and a half points. Do you have a higher, lower cam? See, that's the thing.

Sis, I was just talking about, man. I'm against the heat, I'm going to go higher. Yeah, higher. Okay, and Bam is at 20 and a half points. You have them higher or lower Mace? How many again? 20 and a half. Lower.

Let me ask you, who's the heat star five stat? She don't even know. No, because Tyler's out. Bam, Kelle Ware, Norma, Norman Powell. Let me laugh at you. No, because I think about it's not. And Davey on Mitchell, that's why like, Davion Mitchell, I named five.

You name four. That might be the weakest, that might be the weakest heat starting five I've ever seen. Oh, Andrew Wiggins. Yeah, it took me a second, because I'm like, second, because I'm like, baby, we got a weird little windup. I don't know two of them, so I'm gonna go higher. Bam, you better get 20 with that star and five.

You're trying to win. Higher. Okay. Make sure y'all download the underdog app and you can make your picks too. I know if I say shout out that you are going to get on me, but like they are playing pretty well with Tyler Hurdle being out. So shout out to them. Okay.

So. Don't worry about what the heater doing, Stan. I know. I saw him fixing his face as I started saying that sentence and I'm like, I'm like, look, I still support both thieves. I'm just with a transfer portal. They got a lot going on. It's a transfer portal.

It's crazy. Look, I got my East team and I got my West team. I can't do shit about it. And bought a fucking paper, the bandwagon paper. I got to do things official. Like, if I'm going to say something, I got to let you know correctly. So I came correctly.

Did you get it notarized? Not yet. Oh, you know one of them. But I can, I could get that too. Hey, Statt, down in Miami, they don't want you back. They didn't say that. They did not tell me that. I'm hearing it.

Nope. I know people. Nope. Now they did get on me though. They said I deserve that Steelers L for going in this transfer portal and I can respect that, but they didn't get rid of me yet, okay? We're still together. We just got some things we're working on right now.

You got a side nigga. She's in the transfer portal is crazy. We're still together. We're just going through some things right now. right now is crazy. Shout out Miami Heat. I never leave it. Okay, so the Bears lost to the Ravens 30 to 16 under Tyler Huntley.

Lamar Jackson is projected to return this Thursday versus the Dolphins. Arabia, do you have confidence in the Ravens moving forward? Oh, absolutely. I mean, the Ravens are a much different team when Lamar is in the game versus when he's not in the game. When Lamar is in the game, they average about 32 points per game. When Lamar is not in the game, they average about six points per game. So when you have a force multiplier like Lamar Jackson, there's no denying that he's going to elevate your team in some regard, which also will help the defense because of complimentary football. What I will say is that the AMC North historically is known for some of these better defenses in the NFL.

If you just look at the history of the Ravens, if you look at the history of the Steelers, but right now, the AMC North defensively may be the worst division in the NFL. The Ravens, the Steelers, and the Bengals, all three of them are towards the bottom of the league defensively. The Browns are one of the better defenses in the NFL, and they have the worst record in their division, which begs the question, does defense still win championships? I'm going to talk about it on my show, All 32, which comes out Tuesday through Friday at 2 p.m. Eastern Time. Does defense still win championships? We're going to have Matthew Jude on to help talk about that. But what I'll also say is that the Ravens were the only team in their division to win a game, just like the east. Eagles and the Ravens were the only teams in their division last week to win a game. People have been saying Tyler Huntley should have come in as soon as Lamar Jackson went down instead of Cooper Rush.

And I completely agree. Hindsight, they say, is 2020. But like you says, that Lamar is projected to come back Thursday versus the Dolphins. We're going to see how he comes back. Lamar Jackson is 2 and 0 when he comes back from injury. So the odds are in their favor for Lamar Jackson coming in and winning that game for sure. I think Lamar Jackson definitely gets the win against a hobble, definitely the Dolphins team. I think also when it comes to this team

that I think I would have left Lamar out another week. I wouldn't rush him back even though they're saying he's ready. I don't think they could really afford to get them re-injured or anything to that regard. But if there was ever a team to bring them back against, this would be the team. But me and my personal opinion, I would let them rest just another week because I don't think it's going to make that much of a difference with this season.

I think they missed out on a lot of games. I think he can turn it around, but I think he will be pushing his body to the max too early again. Pause. So what I would say with Lamar Jackson, phenomenal talent, yes, he could definitely put the points up on the board. But I'm not sure about this. decision. Yeah, I don't know the extent of his rehab or coming back or anything like that,

but if he's ready, he's ready. And I think this is the team you bring him back against, if he's ready, if he's not ready, you don't bring him back. But if he is ready, this is a team that you bring him back against because you know why? I said it yesterday. You know, I'm always pumping up my team because I love my team and everything else.

And, you know, you're right, I gave you a lot of credit on the show yesterday because I remember, Remember last week you were saying, what good is the fucking Bengals if you're putting up 35 points and the other team putting up 40 points because of how bad the defense is on the Bengals? I'm actually going to have a conversation with Mo tomorrow to see if Ohio State could step in for our defense on Sundays after they play on Saturdays. That's how bad the Bengals defense is. But what I will say is this.

I don't know if Lamar Jackson is 100%. I just know that they wouldn't throw it. them in there. You know, you got a franchise young quarterback still got a lot of years ahead of time, a lot of years ahead of them. But I'm on the record saying if he's healthy and doesn't get re-injured, that Baltimore will win this division. I really believe so. That's how bad the Bengals defense is. That's how unpredictable. The Pittsburgh Steelers are. And I don't know if Joe Burroughs going to come back in time. And it ain't even about Joe Burrow because since we got flacco, he's been playing great the last.

two weeks. But the defense. Arabia said this last week or the week before last, it doesn't matter. We get 38 points and we let the fucking jets walk up the field on us like fucking

Justin Fields is Tom Brady in 2007 or eight or not. What the fuck? I'm telling you right now. Baltimore with a healthy Lamar Jackson. I don't know how healthy he is or isn't. healthy Lamar Jackson,

Baltimore will win this division if he comes back this week and finishes the season. And I think they will be Miami. Yeah, I also want to say that might be one of the first revenge games I've ever seen that a player had towards their own team.

Usually if it's a revenge game, it's against your former team, but Justin Fields seemed to have a revenge game against his own team. Woody Johnson came out and said, like, well, all that stuff about his passerating. And also, worth mentioning, I've seen some conspiracy things,

online from Bears fans about penalties because the Bears are flagged the second most throughout the NFL and coincidentally their opponents are flagged the second fewest in the NFL and they feel like there are just some really unfair things happening right now they want to pull the FBI into the NFL's affairs as far as the referees are going to so just I think it's a conspiracy theory but I do think it's worth mentioning there has been some refereeing issues when it comes to Chicago to It definitely got a whole lot of FBI investigations going on in sports. So I'm hoping that don't happen, but it's getting real crazy out here when you're just trying to watch the game. So hopefully they figure that shit out. What the hell is going on? Yeah. Yeah, you have a point before? Yeah, we wouldn't need any more FBI surveillance.

If this ends up making his way into the national football league, football league. I think sports would just take a decline altogether because there's people like myself and people that looked at the referees for the Kansas City game and they're like, yeah, you should call them in on this game. And if that was to happen, it would ruin sports for quite some time. So I hope that does happen. For sure. Okay. Now we're going to talk about the Vikings really quick, which we don't really talk about them too much. I mainly feel like because they get overshadowed by the other teams in their division. But they placed Carson once on injury reserve as he's set to undergo season-ending surgery.

So the Vikings are currently three and four. So they're last in the NFC North. Arabia, do you think there's any hope for the Vikings this season? No. The Vikings defense, again, better side of the ball. When your defense is balling, it gives your offense some breathing room. If you're having troubles at quarterback, which they are right now, with J.J. McCarthy being out. Carson Wentz not only had not been playing well, but mind you, week five in London, he, like, had a

dislocation which led to his his labrum being fractured and just all kinds of things he had been dealing with the shoulder injuries since week five in london but they put him out there anyway he kind of toughed it out and right now max rosmer is in the room but before the trade deadline which is november 4th at 4 p.m. they may either add a veteran like maybe like a desmond ritter or something just to be in the room because they don't even have anybody on the practice squad at quarterback right now they might add someone before the trade deadline or just pick someone up but i don't really see them making in too much noise in the NFC North the same way. Last year, the NFC North was balling

between the Lions, the Vikings, and the Packers. So I think, you know, with the Lions and the Packers right there, pretty much, they just need to take care of their quarterbacks, make sure they're not putting Jason McCarthy in a position to fail, and he's not coming out too early. You fuck?

Fuck I care about the Vikings for, man. Niggins wasn't going to win none. I mean, if you want to be technical, I feel sorry for I feel sorry for Justin Jefferson. Good-ass motherfucking receiver, top three receiver, and then you ain't got no fucking real fucking quarterback. Like she just said. First of all, Carson Wentz was backup.

JJ, he got hurt. This was what happened. You know, all right, fine, let me dive into it. I was on here Googling some shit that had nothing to do with this because I didn't give a fuck. Let's be serious. All right, cool. Let's look at this situation.

Justin Jefferson, top three receivers. in the league. JJ's hurt. Cost of once. I don't like calling niggas has-beens or washed up because I was really a cost of once fair when he was on the up, when he was about to be one of them niggas, and then, you know, he kind of missed his opportunity. You know what the fuck happened?

You know what happened? The niggas Sam Donald had bad playoff experience last year and y'all ain't want to pay him. That's what happened. Straight the fuck up. Oh, this nigger froze in the playoffs. He had y'all niggas, like, y'all niggas was up. Your niggas was up. Y'all niggas was up.

I don't remember the record 15 and 2, 14 and 3. Some wild shit. It was looking real good. Niggas was like, oh, that ain't the Sam Donald that was in New York. Oh, this is a different Sam Donald. Kind of like what Daniel Jones is doing in the Indianapolis right now. You know what I'm saying? So you're sitting there saying, damn, this thing is balling.

He had a bad, not just a bad playoff game. Before he went to the playoffs, he had a bad game for that number one seat against the Lions. And then he didn't play good. in the playoffs and that niggas like, them two games gonna cost him $25 million, man. I don't know if we could give him the $25 million. He got y'all niggas to 14 and 3, 15 and 2 at Justin Jefferson looking real fucking good.

Y'all want to cut the nigger's salary for, or not salary, off a contract or for $20 million, $25 million. Look, man, they got a little jitters. That was his first time there, but he had a great regular season, so you make up for it the following season. Nope, y'all didn't want to do that. Now look, Rabia says some nigger from PS 53, some high school coach is about to be their quarterback now.

See how that worked out for you? I got a gym teacher. This is about to be your quarterback because y'all weren't going to see him down a couple extra million because he had two bad games after he took y'all niggas to 14 and 3, 15, and two, whatever the fucking record was. Good for y'all.

That's what happened. I wasn't even paying attention. and even paying attention. I'll go back to doing what I'm doing until we get the next topic. That's what happened. Good luck to y'all. I think last year,

everybody thought the Vikings was going to come in a little bit better than this. But somehow it's just not clicking the way we thought it would. And when you think about it, I know he was talking about Carl Wins, but I would

not even hold him anywhere comparable to what you know, what Rivers would do out there in the Chargers. Let me get his stats again. I'm in not Rivers. I'm bugging out. Justin Herbert.

And when I look at how they was losing every quarter, they only played really good, even better than in third quarter. So it's not, you're not going to win if you're down seven points. And then you let them beat you by 11 points in another quarter and then get to the fourth quarter and only is able to put up these little bit of points.

you're just not going to win games like that. So it's crazy to even think about. No, what I'm saying is this. When I say Carson Wins, see, people don't remember yesterday. I'm not talking about you, Martin. I'm just saying in general. Carson Wins is a Super Bowl chair. Carson Wins was motherfucking that nigger on the Eagle for a few minutes.

He was that nigger. Like, he's about to be that next Patrick Mahomes, Josh Allen type nigger. And it just snowballed. So what I was saying is, you know, the last four or five years when you see Concert Once, you're like, damn, man, you got a chance. And it was like, we don't remember that because niggas don't remember last night.

That's what I was saying. So it isn't even like he played good recently, but, you know, when this is a topic, like Carson once is going season and the season ending soldier surgery, it ain't 217, it's ain't 216, 217. I don't get better, but he didn't. Like this might be the end of his career right here after this surgery, possibly. Yeah. Hopefully not.

Hopefully he has a speedy recovery because you just never know. But yeah, they got a lot to figure out over there. You always hoping Stanley? I do. I don't like people to be hurt. And all that shit, man. There's a lot of hope. And I hope so too.

But is it realistic? Think about he already a backup. Now you get season. How does it cost him once? Let's just do the fucking matter. Let me see. I hope I'd never get. I hope I never get injured because if I do,

Cam just gonna be like, well, shit. I mean, people get injured every day. He just gonna be like, I feel bad for her, but people get injured every day, like, damn. Yo, listen, man, I'm gonna tell you like this. I don't never want nobody to get injured, but how are you not gonna get injured in football? It's football.

Yeah. Yo, it's bad. Something is liable to go wrong. Yeah, man. Listen, man, I'm be honest with you. And I don't wish none to know, but I'm not gonna wear it a very superstitious person, period. And, you know, it's part of the resilience, Arabia.

The nigga, Mace, look, and listen, we was playing basketball last year. Mace was playing in his crocks. He did a spin and fucked his side up. We laughed. He was laughing. He was like, we all laughed. It was like he came in the work hurt, you know what I'm saying?

But he was tough about it. Yo, he laughed at all. The niggas sitting in here right now. We're playing basketball. This is birthday day and sent towards Achilles. We drove into the hospital playing foot loose, all type of shit, all type of songs about his feet and his ankles being hurt, dead ass.

We did, we tell you, foot loose, all type of shit. This would have torn Achilles. So, no, we don't want nobody to get to get hurt. But you're talking about football? Listen, man, that's a, that's a sport where you, somebody's going to get hurt. Just hoping ain't, the best, the best thing you can wish for in football is just hope it ain't the best players on the team. And I don't want to wish nobody get hurt, but it just, it is what it is. It literally is what it is.

Okay, so we're going to end with basketball. So we had a conversation from Kendrick Perkins. He explained why he doesn't fuck with John Morant. He said, I fuck with his daddy, but I don't fuck with Jha. He said he was praising Jahn and said things like he should. of went number one and not Zion and he got ESPN to shine light on him and do all access. Then he said, when he was talking about, and you fuck up. Guess what? Not only do that make you look bad, that make me look bad. They recognize you because of me speaking highly of you. It ain't no coincidence

you went from having three games on ESPN to 52. Then John Morant clapped back and said, you to reason for my notoriety perk. Come on, dog. You show them why I don't fuck with your kind. So, So, Mace, I'm actually going to let you go first. What do you think of Perk's response before we even get to what Jah responded to Kendrick Perkins? All right. Before I say that, I got to correct. I think I said Carl Wentz, and that's the pastor's name, so I meant to say cars. So please forgive me on that.

But when it comes to this, Kendrick Perkins, I like Kendrick Perkins as a commentator. He says some real great things. he makes some really good points. But nothing could be further than the truth. He might be from Harlem with this statement, Killer, talking about he's the reason for Jammerant's notoriety or whatever he said. This is crazy.

Like, so you're the reason he jump out of the gym? You're the reason he got a 40-inch vertical and higher. You're the reason for the Nike deal. Like, this is crazy. This might be. one of the craziest things I heard. But it seemed like these days, people just say stuff to

get attention. And I don't know Perk to be like that, but that's the only way I could take this statement is no validity to it. I don't think ESPN heard Kendrick Perg say this and then said, oh, we gave them three games. Let's give him

49 more games. Because Kendrick Perkins says so, we got to stop overestimating ourselves. This This is getting crazy. And I love Kendrick Perkins, but this is crazy. So all of the moves, Jodd doing the drip, the swag. You ain't have nothing to do with that, Kendrick.

You, wow, like, Kendrick. Can somebody help me out, please. Okay. This is crazy. Arabia, then Cam. Arabia. Can I all know these people. This is not my administration, I don't know,

why you're asking me. You know what she was going on, Mace. Go ahead, Calf, these gentlemen got going on. God bless him. You don't know who John Moran is? I know John Morant, and I know Kendrick Perkins from, like, Celtics, Kendrick Perkins. But like, I don't, like, the gossip, first of all,

nigger gossip will always blow my mind. Because, like, men talk about real housewives of this and how women like reality shows. But niggas like reality show shit, too. When niggas are gossiping and going back and forth online, this person said this about that's about that. Oh, did you see what this nigga said about this nigga? That's nigger gossip.

And this is all this is sports nigger gossip. Them just talking about each other from one media outlets, another media outlet. It's like real housewives of the NBA, where there's just like, generally talking shit to each other. And it's entertaining and niggas like it. So I don't want to hear nothing else about real housewives,

bad girls club, ah, ah, ah, I. Well, y'all do the exact same thing, too. Because a basketball is involved, now it's that now it's acceptable. So whatever they're talking about, they can just call their phone or meet up and do real nigger shit. And if not, it's just online gossip. Yeah, y'all, nigger. That's a taking itself.

That was good. I love that. And that's why I wanted your response. I love that. That is a response. I love that. It's nigger gossip and now just cause a basketball is involved, you act like it's a nigger gossip.

I love that. It is. Yeah, Nick, say me that clip. That was, that is, this is nigger gossip and nigger just because of basketball is involved, you're going to act like it ain't nigger gossip. I don't know, listen, I don't know John Morant like that. I do know Kendrick Perkins, and Kendrick Perkins is a friend of mine. And to make this point, man, listen, we see John Moran's talent.

Now, do there need to be a light shined on it? Absolutely. John Morant was only drafted, and I'm not talking about NBA. This is before the NBA. John Morant was only drafted, not drafted, recruited by one school at the last minute. But ever since then, it seemed like it's been up. I can't sit here and hold you. I can't say and say what's true or not for Kendra Perkins.

I don't know who to pull he has at ESPN and what he doesn't have. But what I do, what I will say is this. You don't just become the number two picking the NBA by accident. You just don't. You know what I'm saying? Whether Zaire went one or he went two, he's still the number two pick in the NBA. And we've seen the splash pause that he made since he's got to Memphis. Since he's been in college, actually, to tell the truth.

So I'm not saying Kendrick Perkins is lying or is wrong or anything else, but I ain't going to hold you. Maybe it's just me, but I've been watching John Morant since that boy got in the college. I thought he'd been very special since then. whether he had games nationally televised or not, I felt the way to watch him play. I'll just give him a little two cents. I just feel like not everything has to be said.

If he felt that way, that is cool. But it does translate, because even if that wasn't his intention, the way things translate sometimes on camera from saying, like, well, why do you think you went to three to 52? Like, you made me look bad. Like, making his situation about you, and it's like, there's a lot of respect, obviously, for Kendrick Perkins. It just sounds crazy to the viewer, to the listener, to other athletes.

So I just think that just didn't need to be. You could have just been like, damn, I was rooting for him. He had some shit that kind of messed up and like, it is what it is. But, you know, I'll either continue to support him or we don't really rock like that and leave it at that. All that extra, because it's like you feeling yourself, which is, you should be able to feel yourself. I'm not saying you shouldn't, but it just looks real.

cocky in a way that just doesn't sound the best. Because J.A is who he is because of Jha, not because of Kendrick Perkins. Now, Kendrick Perkins may have had influence on that, which is great, but I don't think you can take the credit from John Morant when he has done it himself. That's what I'm going to say. Stats.

So can they put me on ESPN for 49 games, killer? If I'm, if I'm playing in the park, Can Kendrick Perkins put me on ESPN? If he got that kind of pool, I'm going to send him my tapes. Kendrick, look forward to getting my tapes because you got the pull. Yeah. You can Kendrick with the pool. Okay.

Let us know in the comments down below what you what you guys think about that situation. But that is all the time that we have for today. Arabia, you know, it's always a pleasure to have you on the show. Thank you so much for having me. And before I go, I do want to say, congratulations. Congratulations to my son's team, the Marlboro Mustangs for winning the DMVAC. Six-U championship game against DMVU. Shout out to DMVU, a very well-coached team, disciplined kids.

But Hollywood boys, congratulations. Next is state championships. So, yeah, definitely going to be looking out for that. Yeah, and tell him how Roman got a girlfriend coming to the game. Killer would love to hit him. Oh, man. At six years old, he got a batty coming to the game. Yeah, my son is in first grade.

He has a crush on a second grade girl. He invited her to his game. She came with her brother and her parents. And she was screaming his name. And he came over in the middle of the game to ask if she was there. I said, yes. So he started balling out. He had a force fumble.

He had tackle. He bawled. Yeah, I put his tape out there. He bawled. But yeah, so shout out the Hollywood boys and Marlboro Mustang. Let me ask you son pertaining to that, Arabia. Are you going to be like Jay and Den? Daniel's mother, are you going to let that nigger get some hoes?

I think it depends. My son is a wow, wow boy. And I know when he gets to college, he's going to be wow. There's only so much I can do. So that's where I'm going to have his dad. Because, you know, his dad plays in the NFL. So I'm an NFL analyst, but his dad has experience with bitches. So I'm going to have his dad try to, because he get that personality from his father.

So I'm going to let his father step in and handle the field. female thing and I'm going to handle whatever else, you know, he allows you. I'm not going to overstep my boundary. No, he got me before he ever played a game after he was drafted. Thank you very much. And he didn't get me. I got him. Okay.

Oh. Shout out to y'all. And did. And did. All right, y'all. Thank y'all for watching. And as always, it is what it is. What you want, what you want, nigga, everything nigger, super size, too big necks, like when they doing them two for five.
