We've got another great episode.
Kylie was doing her part in this one.
Nice. Thanks, Guy.
She did not do this against the Eagles game against Dallas,
so we can all blame Kylie for that one not working out.
Do we owe Jerry an apology?
Who's we?
What do I have to apologize for?
What did we ever say about Jerry?
They fucking sucked!
He fixed it.
It was all part of the plan.
That's just so good job.
What do we owe an apology for?
How about those giants in the James Winston show?
What is outside of what we inside mean?
Explain it to you.
It's like out of the house, but we're in the dome.
It doesn't matter what he says.
It's just the conviction.
Talk your shit to door.
Let's fucking go.
Cleveland's been waiting for this.
Well, the broadcast caught this moment between you and cream.

Not at two percenters.
We've got another great episode.
Traves in a great mood.
Chiefs come back in Arrowhead.
First single score win this year.
Big one for the Chiefs.
Eagles lose to the fucking Cowboys.
Let's start up with what we all.
always start off with. And that's a new news. New news. Yeah, New News is brought to you by American Express.
I don't know what I did with that card. Hey, found it. New News is brought to you by America Express.
If you missed our guest episode with Aaron Andrews and Chris and Thompson, go ahead and check it out.
It's being, it's getting rave reviews. I haven't seen something get this many good reviews since the first iPad.
I mean, it is, iPod. It is getting very well liked.
a fantastic episode. Thanks, everyone. I love the prank calls and calling card story. That brought
us a lot of members back. Awesome. Interview everyone. Ooh, this is like the Kelsey's sisters.
They can all be siblings. We can play in this fantasy world. This episode is one of the favorite
episodes of all time. I admire Aaron and Carissa so much. They've inspired me to become a sports
broadcaster myself. Nice.
And I really respect everything. They already did to give women a voice in sports.
That's dope. Could not agree more, Natalia. Somebody checked the space.
of origin on Natalia.
I'm not buying this.
This is somebody from...
It just discredited it.
You're sick.
We also got a Black Friday deal coming out from our friends at Amage.
You can get all new Heights, new Heights merch, 20% off, including the shirts inspired by
our time at Cincinnati.
Oh, yeah.
The creepiest photo ever incaptured of Jason Kelsey.
Not a terrible photo of myself, but not the most flattering.
either. Isn't there like a bad guy in like some sci-fi movie that's got like his hair
slicked over and it's like shaved on the other side of the, I'm trying to think of that movie.
Shaved? That's the one. Thank you. Thank you very much.
That's who you think you look like. Bro. Just a heftier version.
Come over is definitely there for sure. Black Friday, Cyber Monday, promo starts today,
Wednesday and runs through Monday, December 1st. Last reminder, New Heights will be at
At the link, that's right. Eagles Black Friday game against the Bears. Thursday Night Football crew coming into the town. It's going to be a fun when official tailgate starts at 11 a.m. in Lock K. It is free to enter. I don't know how many people we can admit or how many people will show up, but we do know we are going to be drinking, eating, and having a gay old time. That's right. We'll have food, merch giveaways, a photo booth, DJ games. And of course, a belly bucking competition. They've allowed us.
Oh, yeah.
I never thought legal was going to improve.
I never thought legal would let this happen.
Thank you to the legal team at Wondery.com and whoever is doing it on our behalf.
We've already picked a vetted contestants so you can't apply,
but you can witness the festivities.
If you want to see mostly fat guys rub bellies into each other to see who can win some type of prize
that we have yet to determine if you want to show up and see these bellies get bucked,
see you in Lock K on Friday, you fucking Byrds fans.
we're going to have a fucking blast.
Here we go.
That wraps up new news.
Brought to you by American Express.
Before we wrap that up, Jason, do we have rules for this belly bucket?
Well, you can't use your hands.
Can't use your hands.
Most of the clips I've seen of it, they are either holding their hands behind their back
or grabbing their belt.
Belt sounds like you could get a little bit more.
I feel like as long as the hands don't become disengaged into the front.
They have to remain.
They can't be used in the push.
I think they need to be behind the back.
Nah, I used to, the only reason I'm against behind the back is because I used to have to pass block.
They would do drills where you have to hold your hands behind the back.
And I thought it was the dumbest fucking thing in the planet.
It has nothing to do with balance.
Yeah.
Belly bucking isn't the dumbest thing in the planet.
Well, first of all, how dare you, sir?
This is a athletic feat.
But yeah, I just don't like the concept of holding my hands behind the back.
The only clips that we've seen are from like the 80s.
don't change topics for football holding your hands behind your back and doing a drill that you don't do in the actual sport is stupid for belly bucking i'm all about proper force production as long as those hands i don't give a fuck what you do with it you can stick up your ass that's the thing that's the thing you can go like this you can be belly bucket like that i don't give a flying fuck as long as those hands don't get engaged in the pushing we're allowing it i'm the official travis you won't be at the steel gate you'll be playing football and making millions of dollars i will be
at the tailgate drinking beers and watching fat guys bear bellies all right
uh damn that's cold wait wait wait wait wait wait wait you raise a good point Travis you play
Thursday this is Friday what are you doing oh hold on we we even talk with Travis hold
you're gonna you what you play Dallas you fly back you Thanksgiving Friday I'm looking
at your calendar here this seems pretty open to me brother wow putting them on the spot
I can get you a southwest flight real quick if that's what you're into
putting them on the spot I got a referee uniform if I can make it up I'll
throw on the uniform and bring a whistle.
Oh, my.
People don't get your hopes up.
I'm going to surmise that that's about a 0% chance,
but it is fun to think about.
All right.
Jarvis has done this before.
That means it no.
Bold topics to wrap up week 12 in the NFL, baby.
Bold topics brought to you by Gillette.
That's right.
We got so much stuff from Gillette.
It's amazing.
Look at this stuff right here.
Oh, wow.
Look at that.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Jason, you could shave those grays right off your face, man.
Oh, yeah.
The best a fan can get.
All right.
Now, Jason, why don't we get into a little Chiefs football?
Let's do it.
Chiefs 23, Colts 20, Trave?
How's it feel?
Overtime football, a little free football for the fans, baby.
But Arrowhead, got to love it, man.
And we finally fought a close battle and came out victorious.
We haven't had any close games that we've come out on top yet this year.
And that's kind of been our MO over the past few years here in Kansas City
that we always find a way.
And this one felt like classic Chiefs football, baby,
where we just stick together.
We keep fighting.
We keep fighting and we find a way at the end.
The defense came up huge against what feels like a high-powered offense, man.
I mean, they got playmakers all over the field.
Obviously, Jonathan Taylor had running back absolute stud.
Wide receivers, tight end is a stud.
So we were thinking we had got to put up a line.
lot of points in our defense showed up, man.
That still doesn't take away from the fact that we got to put up touchdowns
instead of field goals, man.
And we got to end that game in regulation in the future.
But proud of how the team stuck together and found a way to get a win, baby.
It was fun to watch.
You guys were rolling for most of the game.
Like you said, you just couldn't get in the end zone in the first half, have to settle
for nine points.
Big Getty touchdown comes off of the board on one of them.
I keep telling you guys, will you please fucking put the tush push?
It's a cheat code, Travis.
Just put the tush push in.
and we will get rid of these red zone issues.
I don't want to put that play in.
Well, fucking, I guess you don't like score touchouts.
Have fun.
Kick and field goals.
You jack off.
All right.
Statistically, this was a blowout.
First down, Chiefs 33, Colts 10.
Total yards.
Chiefs 346.
Colts 255.
Total plays.
Chiefs 91.
Colts 50.
Should we start with the moment the game turned?
When was that?
Apparently, according to this rundown, the start of the fourth.
Chiefs down 11.
Inside the Red Zone,
Cream Hunt,
and the ball was recovered by the Colts at the six-yard line.
He ended up with over, I think, 100, 120 yards.
He had a great game.
Total offense, but that one fumble is going to kill him.
And knowing Kareem Hunt, I mean, my guy's a fearless competitor, man.
He was fucking pissed at himself.
And how he leads his team, not turning the ball over,
is something he takes a lot of pride in.
So he was pretty hard on himself after that one.
But, yeah, we got to hear.
huge stop by the defense got the uh got the ball back and uh started get some things going on
offense again baby nice well the broadcast caught this moment between you and kareem is very
heartwarming and lovely yeah brothers got a hug i fucking love a good hug sometimes when when you feel
like you let the team down you can get even more uncharacteristic feeling like you got to do more
than what you've already been doing and he he was running the ball amazing and uh and kareem's a
fantastic player just by showing up to the fucking ballpark and giving it is all.
So sometimes you just need to, you know, give them that reassurance that we need you
going forward, brother, like put that shit in the past.
Let's keep this thing moving.
Yeah, I mean, it's not like Kareem has had like a major issue with fumbles.
Like, I think that like when it's a guy that's like had a bunch, then it's kind of like,
I could have the last time I've ever seen him.
Yeah.
Like when it's a guy that almost never does it and is super accountable, great dude,
I feel like it's always like a, hey, we got.
got your back, bro. We're going to get this back.
Oh, yeah. Is that what kind of the sentiment you were trying to...
100%. You can see he was fucking pissed. And sometimes, like I said, you can get uncharacteristic
when you get the emotions high like that. He's even in quotes saying, I had to just think
positive. And when I got the ball, I was going to run pissed off. And that's a big,
angry dude when he's running pissed off, man. That's, I want him on my team. And yeah, it was
and that's exactly what he did. And he ended up finding a way to get in the end zone.
And cut it to three points.
Yeah, yeah.
And he finished the game with 30 carries for 104 yards and a touchdown.
That's the first 100-yard rushing game for a Chief this season.
That's crazy.
The Chief's defense after the Cream Hunt fumble with 1456 in the fourth quarter,
four possessions, 12 plays 13 yards allowed.
Held Jonathan Taylor to 58 yards.
That's the big kicker right there, man.
You can't be one dimension against Spagnola.
He is going to take away whatever you do really.
well. And he's got all of the tools within his repertoire to do it. And he's too good of a
coordinator. And I think Jonathan Taylor is one of the best players of football, period, not running
back. So he's the best football players in the NFL. 100%. And Spags did a tremendous job scheming
that stuff up. The players did a tremendous job of executing it. Nick Bolton, Chris Jones came alive.
Drew Trankel with a huge third down. And then they did. Towards the end of the game.
They did a great job of when the game's on the line, and this is very spagnola,
of pressuring the quarterback and making him try to make quick decisions in critical moments.
It was vintage spags in the most meaningful way.
Rishi Rai's finished with eight catches for 141 yards, including a big, big catch in a meaningful moment.
It felt like he was coming up with every single big play for us.
obviously Xavier Worthy with a huge one late in the game.
But Rashid over the middle, he's just the absolute beast, man.
And he's hard to tackle, man.
He's a strong dude.
And the more we get that guy to the ball, I think more of this offense gets in the end zone, man.
And those two guys, Noah Gray, Rashid, man, love those guys for what they're putting in right now.
And huge, huge outcome for this offense.
I love it.
Post-game interview, Mahomes called this game, do or die.
Is that the way if, I mean, it had to feel that way.
You know if you don't find a way to claw back in this one,
that the playoff chances are slim.
I mean, I said something similar and kind of backtracked last week.
I think you have that sense of urgency that shit needs to get handled.
No doubt.
And without a doubt, I think Mahomes having that mentality going into it,
help channel this team's work ethic throughout the week for sure.
Yeah, it's weird.
As a player, I always hated the term, like, must-win games.
This is a must-wick games?
This is like, they're all fucking.
Every fucking game is a goddamn must-win game.
And like, oh, we're already in the playoffs.
Well, no, we're not in the place.
We're trying to get to the playoffs.
But, I mean, the sentiment is there.
And I think that it felt like coming into this game.
Like, this was the time where the chiefs have to get it going.
They have to make it happen.
Otherwise, it's going to be hard to get into this thing.
And you guys did against a very good Colts team that has been red hot all year long.
I feel like this.
I don't know what you guys are like in the,
locker room right now or after the game.
But we had a big win against the Giants in 2017 with like a walkoff field goal.
Is there anything about the mentality of just getting this first one, especially because
you guys have been 0 and 5 in the one score games, right?
Yeah, that's a thing.
I don't want to play it up too much, but like sometimes just getting this going, like,
how does that feel as a team?
We had lost two in a row, man.
Yeah.
Things were, I don't want to say they were stale, but it's like kind of like guys are, guys are waiting for, you know, somebody to take this thing over.
Guys are waiting to get over the hump.
They're, they're trying to find out, you know, their role and how this thing is going.
Do we, you know, losing fucking sucks.
And that brings a tough mentality and a tough, you know, energy into the building.
Like everyone gets a little bit more, you know, focused on their, their routines and how they can be better.
And you're not necessarily just coming into the building.
loving what you're doing because you've got shit, you got to fix.
Yeah.
So it's like, yeah, it was a little stale, but, you know, getting over that hump,
finding a way to win a tight football game like this in overtime against a good football team.
The fucking vibes in the locker room were epic, man.
It was like, finally, baby, we're back.
We're back on track.
Let's fucking keep this thing going.
Let's keep this momentum.
Let's keep this energy.
And how we're attacking the week and attacking these games and how we're fighting together, man.
And it's a good feeling, man.
Yeah, man, I had to imagine that felt really good.
You got another tough one coming up this week on Thursday against the Cowboys.
Kylie was doing her part in this one.
Not watching the game?
That's right.
She turned her back.
She did this at an Eagles game earlier this year.
I remember, yeah.
Worked like a charm.
Nice.
Thanks, Kai.
She did not do this against the Eagles game against Dallas following the Chiefs game.
So we can all blame Kylie for that one not working out.
also some UC boys at the game who is at the game well sauce gardener and and alec pierce
oh yeah talking about the guys on the colts i was uh talking to sauce before or after the game
i was like i finally got my one-on-one with your dog that's all i just wanted one and the ball
went like to the field and it was it was i i felt like i kind of got open oh i'm just saying
i think pat if he would have came back to me we would have had a completion that's all i'm going to say
All right, all right.
No, man, I have so much respect for sauce, man.
I fucking love that guy.
Got a lot of respect for Alec Pierce, too, man,
and what they were able to do at Cincinnati,
but also what they're doing in the league, man.
It's got to be cool to play with a college teammate in the NFL, man.
Big game this Thursday on Thanksgiving against the Cowboys.
Down to Jerry's World, man.
Yeah, the Chiefs going back to Dallas, man.
There were once the Dallas Texans.
Do you know that, this organization?
I did know that, actually.
Yeah.
Lamar Hunt.
Lamar Hunt created the chiefs or this organization down in Dallas during the
AFL days and or actually I believe right before the AFL days.
I don't know.
I think the only reason I know about the Dallas Texans is because of a throwback
that Barry Rubin hooked you up with.
Oh, nice.
Yes.
That's the only reason I even know that.
Dude, that's a sweet jacket too.
It is a sweet jacket.
Yeah, their logo used to be the state of Texas.
Whatever.
You should do it.
Yeah.
So we're headed down to old.
Dallas, Texas, to play a little turkey bowl, man.
I'll buy it, man.
What's the first turkey bowl you remember?
Turkey Bowl.
Like going out with ours?
Yeah.
I was about to say turkey bowl is more family, right?
I don't remember.
The one that I really remember is one year we went all to Canterbury.
Canterbury.
Yes.
I was going to say, that's the one I remember the most.
And it was like, it was fucking, like snowing, ridiculous.
Yes.
I don't even, who was with us?
I don't even remember who we went with.
I have no idea either, dude.
I feel like I remember it was two-hand touch because it was boys, girls, and different ages
and everything.
But dad let us play tackle.
No, dad would never let us play tackle.
What are you talking about?
He would let us tackle each other.
That's what I'm saying.
Yeah, he was like, you too could play tackle.
That's the one I remember right away.
I don't know why that's the one that sticks out.
I feel like there was one at Roxborough, too, the middle school.
Yeah, for sure.
I did one at middle school one time.
But you knocked that out in the morning and then enjoy some football
and some holiday games in the afternoon, baby.
The best.
It's the best.
Trab, you haven't played in Jerry World since 2017.
It's the Mitz Mahomes' first time playing in Dallas.
Yeah, a little homecoming for the big guy.
Did Mahomes grow up, a Cowboys fan?
I believe so.
Right?
That's a pat question.
I know he grew up a Rangers fan and a Mavericks fan,
so I would assume Dallas Cowboys were a part of that.
Cowboys undefeated since the trade deadline.
that's a big one, two games.
Do we owe Jerry an apology?
Who owes Jerry an apology?
Who's we?
What do I have to apologize for?
What did we ever say about Jerry?
I never say anything about Jerry.
I think society at large.
I feel like the man got left.
I feel like he was getting laughed at a little bit.
They fucking sucked.
What are we talking about?
Their defense was horrendous.
He fixed it.
It was all part of the plan.
That's so good job.
What do we owe an apology for?
Hey, your car doesn't work.
Oh, I wouldn't got it fixed.
Oh, we owe you apology for something.
saying your car was fucking broke down and didn't work on the side of the road i don't know shit
and apology putting questions in the talk we can just move on us we owe we owe jerry jones a clap
of approval there you go okay listen all right here we go hey a little clap the moment i'll say this
and i'll stand on this and i think the guys back me the moment they they traded for quinnon i was
actually like there was a lot of other names being thrown around right max crosbie trehendricksson
like they thought they're gonna everybody the the word especially when jerry said we
were going to make a trade i think everybody's expect
an edge player to replace Micah.
When they said it was Quinnon, immediately, I thought this is better for that defense.
Because for years, they have lacked the raw, like just man, strength, big power.
In the heart of that defense, they have lacked that type of presence.
And Quinnon brings that.
And they got it a little bit with Kenny.
But now with all three of them, they definitely got it.
And I don't think that, you know, OSA is a great player.
And I said this a little bit on Monday night.
Osa is similar to the kind of player I am.
We're like, I can do really special things, but I'm not like that freaking Fletcher Cox.
I'm not like that Brandon Brooks, right?
I don't, that's not my stature.
You need a guy like that.
And that's what Quinnin brings.
And it's right away, it's been apparent in both of the first two games in Dallas.
And now you see an OSA and all these other guys starting to play better.
Just as a result of that.
Now, that defense line is humming.
We saw in the Eagles game.
We'll comment on that.
They still got some issues in the back end.
I just think for moving forward, this is a great piece to build around.
I think it's a great move by Jerry.
I don't think I owe him a fucking apology, but I'll say great fucking job.
George Pickens might be the most underrated offseason move.
You know what?
When Pittsburgh got rid of them, I was like, man, there's got to be something behind the scenes.
Because it's like, how the heck do you let a guy that gifted get off?
Out of the building.
He essentially got him for a third round pick.
I don't know.
I think it's a one year.
And then they got to renegotiate him this year, right?
If they want to keep them, is that what it is?
I'm not up on the contract stuff.
When you got two certified dogs like George Pickens and C.D. Lamb and a quarterback like
Dak Prescott throwing that thing around, the offensive line has been retooled a bit.
Their offense is very, very good this year.
Yeah.
Short week.
What is the process for getting ready on a short week, Trave?
Buckle up.
But there's nothing you can really do about it.
You don't get very much practice.
Yeah.
And for a lot of walkthroughs.
For a defense like the Cowboys, man, you got to put a great game plan together
because they got guys that can disrupt and make your life miserable.
So we got a great game plan.
Obviously, we got to key in on a lot of the details and a lot of the small stuff
that you don't get a lot of practice on and be ready for the opportunity, man.
but it's not the easiest turnaround having to play four days later in another city.
But it's going to be a fun one, man.
I'm excited, man.
Thursday, Thanksgiving, Turkey Bowl game, man.
I've been sitting at home watching these games my entire life.
And now I get a chance to go out there and play for some turkey after it.
And against a great team, man.
What a great challenge.
Are you going to be able to see into the Post Malone halftime show?
Post Malone's doing a Thanksgiving halftime show.
Nice.
Nice, man.
Shout out to Post.
I don't know why I'm asking you.
You're not going to see a fucking second of it.
I might see like the tail end of it from like the tunnel as we're getting ready to go back out there.
But for the most part, I'll be trying to figure out how to attack them on the second half.
It was my cause.
My cleats this week.
Do you want to give a shout out to Operation Breakthrough?
Yeah.
Shout out to Jeremiah.
Everyone over at Operation Breakthrough in the Ignition Lab for putting these things.
together, I saw they used a little bit of the 3D printing and for some of the, the tags on the
laces and they were using paint on the actual creation of the, of the cleat, giving a big shout
out to the ignition lab of what it means to them and everything. And on top of that, they gave
me a book bag that the shoes, that the cleats came in. And everybody at the ignition lab signed
it. And it's pretty cool, man. I'm going to have to put that up here and then, and then
showcase it. Obviously, they're still up with the facility or I'd show you guys, but
I'm an idiot. But thank you guys for showing some love for my cause, my cleats. And I was going
to wear them throughout the game, but they were so cool. And the paint started chipping a little
early and warm-up. So I switched them up for the actual game. Operation Breakthrough is one of
the most special things Kansas City has. I think it's awesome what they do, everything over there for
not just the kids, but the community. And to highlight it is a great job, Trave. Well done.
And well done to everyone who made those cleats.
So cool.
Very cool.

Let's move on to some Eagles,
Cowboys action, man.
There's a tough one for the birds, up 21 and lost 21, 24 to the cowboys down there in Jerry's
world.
Not a fun one to watch.
I can tell you that.
Jason, what the fuck happened?
Well, got out to a good start, 21-0, and then allowed a team to come back for the first
time in, I think, like 90 games.
The Eagles were 90 and 0, 21-point leaded games, led it, leaded.
Really frustrating game.
You know, and listen, Dallas was playing well all game long.
I know we came out and it looked really good, 21-0, but they had opportunities in the first half.
We get a big interception in the red zone.
I don't know.
I've heard mixed things on like the blocked punt.
So they end up tipping a punt and running into the kicker and getting a personal foul,
which it shouldn't be a penalty and everybody was pissed off about.
But then somebody said, I saw it somewhere in the internet that somebody said that he hit the punter in the head.
So it still would have been a personal foul.
Well, yeah, I don't think you can hit him in the head.
I don't know if that's accurate.
I don't even remember if he hit him in the head or not.
I just saw that on the internet, so I'm going to take it to face value.
Either way, there were some weird things happening in that first half, right?
C.D. Lamb had a bunch of drops that I think the Cowboys offense, you know, we were doing a good job of keeping them out of the edge zone in the first half and they eventually got going, especially once our secondary got banged up, right?
Yeah.
But yeah, man, you get up to a 21 point lead.
You can't allow somebody to crawl back like that, right?
like especially as an offense like all you got to do is just run the ball maintain like time
of possession like don't give them an opportunity easier said than done yeah the defense is kicking
themselves too but against the cowboys with that kind of high powered offense you got to seal that
deal on offense in my opinion um and i know everybody it's very fashionable right now to
blame kevin petulow and the play calling the passing game felt like it was pretty
good in this one.
AJ had eight catches for one 10.
Dude, they came out and it guys are moving across the ball.
I don't pay attention to half this stuff, but the first touchdown, AJ catches
it in a seam or a post or whatever the fuck that route's called.
And it looked pretty damn good.
So I thought that the passing game and some of that stuff felt like it was working.
And guys were open when I watched the tape.
You didn't get into passing concepts over your 13 year career?
Well, here's what I don't know.
Okay.
So this is what on the AJ route.
beats him inside and he kind of bends it towards the post.
I don't know if he's running like a seam and the ball just kind of carries him in there
or if it was like a true like post.
All right.
Nice.
So that's where I'm like,
like George Kittle,
I did up a play with Brock Purdy where he's attached on the line and he just outruns the
line to the front pie line.
Right?
Yeah.
It's not a corner.
It looks like a fade,
but like he's all the way attached.
Like, is that a fade from an task position?
I don't know what the fuck you call that route.
I know what I'm talking about,
but I don't know what the name of it is.
Do you know what I'm talking about?
Like, you just run straight to the pie line.
I thought I was following you.
I don't know which play it was.
So two by two, double right, double wing right.
Yep.
And your termination.
Was he looking over his right shoulder or inside shoulder?
Inside shoulder.
So he just is attached.
Oh, it's a fade.
Brock Purdy checks the play, right?
Because he knows he's got the matchup with,
George and the linebacker one-on-one.
And he...
Inside fade, yeah.
He just releases kind of up into him
and then just fades to the pye line
and it's right over the inside tree.
Dude, I mean, you know ball.
You're a ball, no.
You know ball.
You just got to trust it.
I'm like, that looks like a fade,
but I don't know what the fuck that's called.
You're knowing ball skills.
You're got to trust your inner Swami
and just send it.
Inside fade, baby.
But can you run a...
You can run a...
To me, I'd always thought a fade was like an outside route.
You can run a fade from anywhere?
anywhere inside fade yeah good enough all right perfect um anyways back to this game the passing game
i felt like guys were open and it looked good um they the thing that is really hurting this offense
right now is the run game right it's it's it is not been clicking for the majority of the year
it's multifaceted the offensive line has been banged up there's been guys in and out um you know lane
jonson is now out of the lineup again for a second time and hopefully we'll get him back
uh for when it really starts meaning
in a lot.
Landon Dickerson got banged up earlier in the year.
Camp Juergens has been in and out of the lineup.
It's been hard to build cohesion as a unit.
A lot of this, I think, will get solved if they can stop it with the penalty.
If they eliminate penalties, and we can all be more on the same page.
And I think right now, it's really hard to do that when there are guys in and out of that
lineup as frequently as they have been.
I know that they are frustrated.
I can imagine that.
I know Landon Dickerson said,
post-game, and he kind of tried to clarify it a little bit, I think, on Monday,
but after the game, he made a comment about Dallas playing more of five down front than
they were expecting.
Yeah, they were in the penny front for a while.
But that's, they had done it the previous two weeks.
And like, listen, this happens.
You come into a game.
You're expecting a defense to play you a certain way, and that's kind of what you
prepare most for.
And then all of a sudden they might do something different.
it ain't like they came out
and ran like a 3-3 stack
with like a monster rover
safety like they played a fucking bear front
like what are we talking about this ain't the most
complicated fucking thing on the planet
you're talking about you played Vic Fangio
you know how to block a fucking
five down front with two linebackers in the
front like it ain't like you're
this isn't the most complicated thing
we've all played against these kind of defenses
they played really good
Quinn and Williams was very good
up front
Like he was the first week, he made multiple plays, especially early on.
Osa had a couple really good plays as well.
They moved the front, right?
They did some good things defensively.
I got to give Eber Flus credit.
I thought he had a good game plan coming in.
They moved the front.
The Eagles didn't, like, handle it as well as I would have hoped.
But that is probably the best interior defense in the NFL now.
With the addition to Quinn and Williams, Quinn and Kenny Clark and OSA, I don't know
that you can point out a more well-rounded, robust into your defense line.
You got those three guys out there at nose and two, three techniques.
We need to run toss crack or something.
It's going to be hard.
Yeah.
And they know you want to run that stuff.
So they tried to get to some of that.
And they played it well.
They jet the gap on one of them where Cam's trying to block back with a guard tackle
pool and he gets its penetration into the backfield and disrupts the play majorly.
That's one where like all of a sudden that happens.
It's happened to me.
I remember playing the dolphins.
They jumped down into a bare front.
And typically on this counterplay, it would be guard tackle pull,
and I would block back on the three technique.
All of a sudden, Christian Wilkins jets the gap,
and I whiff, and he screws the whole playoff.
We're in four minimum.
We get back on the ball.
We call the same play.
And I tell these guys, listen, Cam, you block on.
Block the three technique.
I'll pull for you.
We adjust, get a big hit, right?
These are things that happen as the game's going on.
Like, he's like, dude, I'm not going to do.
This is a stupid situation.
We're going to solve this right now.
Hey, you block the three technique.
I'll fucking pull.
How about that?
Fuck these guys.
Fuck these guys.
Ha ha.
Fuck me.
No, fuck you.
That's one of my favorite things.
Stouts ever said.
Outside of the run game,
the other thing that killed this team,
really the ultimate thing that killed them in the second half.
Oh, back to the counterplay.
Sorry,
my fucking fasted brain is all over the place.
It's going.
It's going.
It's fun to watch, though.
You see them adjust.
The guys are,
they're slant in the front.
They're playing physical jet rushing.
when they're in that five down front.
The end does a great job on one of them of crashing down
and condensing the whole.
You'd like to see the tight end go around it when that happens,
but easier said than done, right?
You're coming in, expecting to insert inside.
You're told swab and less.
What's a great counter if the end's bending like that?
To you.
The end around.
The naked.
End around's great.
What's another good one?
The naked.
If you're the tight end and you want the ball,
what's a good one?
Slip the tight end out on the back side.
Like he's going to come back and whack the end
and you just keep running.
They call that play.
they hit Dallas got around one.
It gets all the way down inside the 40-yard line.
But it gets called back because I don't know who's right or wrong,
but Matt Pryor is eligible and him and AJ are on the ball to that side.
So illegal formation, right?
He's covered up.
That hurts.
But that was a great adjustment.
I'm like, they knew it.
I know for a fact, they got on the sideline.
They said, hey, this end took away that play by crashing down.
And they're like, hey, this plays here now.
And they fucking call it.
They hit it big.
and all of a sudden it is brought back.
The penalties were frustrating.
The turnovers at the end of the game were extremely costly.
And then, and before you know it, you allow a 21 point deficit to be crawled back from
and you lose to the Cowboys.
And you're sitting here like twiddling your thumbs.
How the fuck do we just let this happen?
And it's a frustrating feeling.
I come away from that game thinking good, to be honest with you.
Really?
I really do.
I think that the passing game looked better.
AJ and Devante got going.
I think that that's a very stout run defense,
and it's going to show itself the second half of the season.
I know they weren't very good at the first half.
I think it's going to be hard for a lot of teams
run the ball against these guys with Quina Williams in there now.
And I think that this offensive line,
as it continues to get the reps together,
they will block better as a unit.
They will communicate better as a unit.
And I think that that will make a huge difference
in a lot of the way.
these plays get executed.
I really believe that.
And defensively, they lost Makuba,
Adori Jackson went out, and reblanks.
They lost three of their starting four DBSs in the game.
It's tough.
It's a tough one to overcome.
So I feel confident about the Eagles moving forward.
Can't wait for this Black Friday game.
I'm about to say, Bears coming into.
Did I just do the whole rundown on the Eagles?
It was great.
It was fantastic.
Listen, this fast has got you taking.
over this show, and I absolutely love it.
Okay, I'm sorry.
My brain isn't working anyway, so this is great for us.
Bears, short week, does this actually help them in this scenario?
I don't know how a short week could help anybody in a scenario like that.
I'd be curious.
I would say maybe, I feel like short weeks always help older players.
And it's conversely to what you would expect because, like, older players don't recover as well.
I always felt like I could go into the game with less practice rips, right?
Like, I didn't need to see a five down front.
in practice.
I know how to fucking block a five down front.
Yeah.
So just let's get to the game day.
I would rather them have problems being less prepared than me.
I think that they're playing a coordinator in Dennis Allen, who is very different from Matt
Iber Flues.
And Iber Flues played a five down front.
Historically speaking, doesn't mix it up a lot.
You might have your wrinkles.
He's going to move the front.
But they're going to cover two, cover three defense zone.
like it has been the same way since he was in Dallas with Rob Marinelli.
And this was a new wrinkle for them where they got to that a little bit more than they
usually do. Dennis Allen will mix it up.
He will do something very game plan specific, very unique to what he wants to do to stop
the Eagles.
It was a new wrinkle every time I played him, right?
Yeah.
One year they're lining up into underfront and they're slanting back to an overfront.
One year, they're doing a slot pressure and safety.
edge. Another year, it's zero pressure. Another year, the linebackers are doing more of a cross
dog. Like, you really need to be ready for all of that. That does concern me a little bit with
the short week because ultimately, you're going to have to adjust in this game. And these guys
don't have a lot of time on task together still. I'm assuming it's going to be the same
crew with Fred Steen and Cam. Hopefully those guys.
can continue to build off of last week?
Well, I mean, the Bears have the 28th ranked rushing defense in the league.
And you guys got a bunch of big boys up front and two ahead of month in the backfield.
So.
Let's fucking go, boys.
There you go.
Time to go.
I mean, I don't know what to tell you.
And listen, they have, in my opinion, the best offensive line coach in the NFL and Jeff Stalding.
And I know that he is, it is eating him to death that it ain't panning out.
Sometimes you need one.
Just like you guys
You just got your one
Sometimes you just need one
Let's fucking go boys
Come on
You're fired up
You're fired up
Well that does it for the
For some Eagles talk
Let's get to the rest of the league
Shall we
Keep it in the division
How about those giants
In the James Winston show
James Winston show
Come on
Oh baby
Just started off with the pregame speech
Hit it
Hit it Brandon
We all saw
But we inside
Come on
We all saw it but we didn't sign
Come on
I want everybody
To go outside
their boundaries and do whatever it takes to pull the wind.
Come on, huh?
We got to be desperate for greatness.
Desperate for greatness.
How bad do we want it?
Let's find out.
Here you go.
Go, man, one, two, three.
The thing is, is he's not even, what does it mean?
What is outside, but we, it's, I mean, explain it to it.
It's like out of the house, but we're in the dome.
You know what I mean?
Like, we're outside, but we're really inside.
I got you.
I got you.
Um, dude, it's electric.
And the thing is, it doesn't matter what he says.
It's either you're, you're, you're,
And he sends it, man.
He sends it and he gets everybody to fucking rally behind him.
And then he fucking goes out and makes one of the craziest plays that I've ever seen.
By far, one of the most electric, it was like cinema.
It was like from the beginning of the play to the end of the play to the fucking zoom in
of the camera in the end zone.
Reverse.
Fuck it.
First of all, great play by the receiver to double.
double back and get the ball to him.
Breaking a tackle.
I mean, dude.
The finger roll at the end and the zoom in of the camp.
Hey.
Hey, hey, hey.
Shooting dice.
Look at everybody doing it.
Like, this looks like it's like a Broadway play.
Go back.
Like, this looks like a scene out of basketball.
Cinematic.
Like, everybody's in on it.
Like, hey, like, like, Doug.
Like, look at the lineman.
Like, what the fuck?
These guys practice this?
Everybody's hitting the body roll, baby.
Listen, man, there's just some guys who just love playing for, man.
I know.
For me, Vince Young was one of them, man.
Dog, I didn't give a fuck what happened.
I love playing with Vince.
He was so, he was the best.
Fucking great play.
Jeremy Shockey, who was that?
Shout out to freaking Mike Kafka.
The fighting Kafka's, baby.
For the great play design.
Oh, yeah.
Mm.
Tung.
Way to come back to the ball.
Is that the ball?
I feel that's what Barnes has got to be fucking pissed off at himself after that one hundred percent
electric man shout out to James they almost pulled it off dude if you would have told me before the game
the Giants might beat the fucking Detroit Lions I'd be like you're fucking out of your mind
I love James Winston god damn that's fucking I'm so kind of upset the Jackson Darts
gonna start this week that we don't get to see another version of this like I hate saying
that because I'm also I like watching Jackson Darp play too I'm saying it's like it's almost
It's like one A, one B, but it's still, it's hilarious.
I don't care what quarterback is playing in the NFL.
I want to see James Winston.
I want to see the experience.
I don't know what you're going to say.
I want the James Winston experience every week.
Jason, would you have to see, fucking Tom Brady or James?
I want to see James.
I don't know if I didn't care.
That's the greatest player that ever played the game.
I don't care about that one bit.
I want to be entertained.
That's fucking electric, man.
It's the best, bro.
God, that was awesome.
Shout out to James Mason.
Talk your shit, Shadour! Let's fucking go!
My dog goes in, gets his first start, gets his first start, gets his first dub.
Let's fucking go, man.
I mean, it was against the Raiders.
The 45th starting QB for the Browns since 1994 and got the win over the Raiders.
First Brown's QB to win in his first official start since 1995.
Cleveland's been waiting for this.
I cannot wait to watch this.
this week. That is for damn sure. I mean, Raiders not playing the best right now. Just fired a
former coach of mine and a guy that I love Chip Kelly. They've been struggling. Offensively,
they can't get a lot going. But, you know, this should or made some pretty good plays. He had
the huge rolling out throw. Big time plays, yeah. Ryan Clark said this, which I thought was really
good. So I'm going to steal it. Ryan Clark said in one game, Shador showed them more than they
had seen really in any of the games with Gabriel, right?
Like 100%.
You at least, and that's not a shot of Gabriel, it's just the reality of it.
Like they had at least a big play.
It wasn't like he was out of this world.
Like he was like, what was he?
Like 11 for 20 or something like that and like didn't have amazing stats.
But he made a couple big plays.
And for a first start, won him the game and had some pretty good success.
So now we get to see it again.
The Shador Sanders experience against the San Francisco 49ers.
And the thing that's unique, I think, about Shador,
is like he don't have to be a game record, probably.
Like, Cleveland's defense is really good.
Miles Garrett.
He's literally going for the sack record this year.
Miles Garrett is kind of like,
we got to wonder, is he a monster or is he a tune?
I don't know.
I think he might be a monster.
Like, this dude's from another planet.
I don't know what the hell.
somebody came in and freaking injected some level of like
Reggie White plus
freaking LT
it's like what the fuck is this thing man he's fucking way too good
no he's a fucking beast man and he's uh he's got that defense
playing fucking unbelievable um anytime you can fucking have a game
record like that man we had Jim Schwartz who's a former coach of mine obviously in
Philly come into camp and I was there for one of the training camp days
and he told me in training camp he was like dude
Miles has, like, a different look to him this year.
He was kind of feeling like, this guy, contract stuff going on last year.
He had all this noise going on and everything.
And I don't know, there was, it was enough for a guy like Schwartsey who is not quick to say that stuff.
Like, he wouldn't say that unless he meant it.
Yeah.
He felt like this dude was on a mission this year.
And right now, man, he's having a heck of a season.
Yeah, he was pretty hype when he saw Shadr out there fucking making big time plays.
Dion Sanders in the building.
watch his son for the first time, man, this was just an epic day for Cleveland fans all over
the place. I know, I know a bunch of my friends and family up in Cleveland were fucking excited
that they got to see a win and got to see Shadir, go out there and ball. And he earned himself
another start. That's right. He earned himself another start against the Niners this week.
And yeah, we'll see. We'll see how he does, man. I guarantee you, everybody's going to be
tuned in, baby. Let's go. T. J. Watt passes J. J. J. J.
career sacks number that's right has j j wadd career sacks a hundred and fifteen now t j wad has
which is fucking insane because he's still got a lot of football left to play um he does j j was on
the call and uh had this reaction and that is sack number one 15 from t j wad well that's it i'm gonna
put the pads back on because this is preposterous i'm gonna put the pads back on this is
Proposterous. Knowing JJ, I'm betting that that was a very sarcastic tone.
Oh, 100%.
You know, JJ, I'll say, I think up into a certain point, I still think JJ probably had
the sacks up to a certain point of his career.
JJ's kind of career kind of slowed down once he started getting hurt.
I don't know if that's fun to say or fair, but before his back and some of the groin
stuff he had going on, nobody could block that motherfucker.
Are you kidding?
And like a way that he just ruined games.
It was fucking, it was talking about.
about Miles Garrett, dude.
He had guys seeing fucking nightmares.
What? Yeah.
He was, that dude could fucking hit a goddamn backdoor gap like nobody on the face of
this earth.
Then he would jet it.
Then he'd go right through you.
It was like, man, this guy's got a three-way going.
I don't know what to do.
Lane, we played the Texans one year.
And Lane Johnson, after the game said, I feel like there was just a big great white
sharks around swimming out there and he's wearing a number 99 jersey.
Especially when he had that fucking the, the brace, man.
That fucking elbow brace, dude.
It's just like a cheat coat on a guy that already looks like Mr. Incredible.
It's fucking ridiculous.
If you could take over a record from your brother, what would you want it to be?
What records does Jason have?
I don't have a single record.
I got some buns records.
I think I probably still have more games than you because you missed your whole first year.
But I missed a whole second year.
I don't know.
I'd be interested to see who has more games.
I was just talking about what records you already had.
Oh, yeah.
I mean, that's about the only record I own.
Most consecutive games.
So you, I mean, most consecutive starts.
Nice.
Is it games?
Who knows?
Yeah, well, that was a fun question.
Anything else we want to hit from week 12?
Well, time on.
What about, I would take my brother's record.
I would take Travis's.
Which one would you want?
What's the best Travis Kelsey record?
This is where, like, we got to have like a list.
I feel like the playoffs are the only ones that I actually care about.
Ooh, playoffs, most receiving yards?
You passed Jerry Rice last year on that, right?
Or you still got to get a mission?
No, I didn't.
I think I passed them in receptions, not receiving half.
I think I was still like fucking 600 yards back on the whole receiving yards.
Jerry played for a long time.
He did.
And he played a lot of playoff games.
And he won a lot of playoff games.
What's the Travis Kelsey record that I want to have the most?
I don't really care about records.
There you go.
Then that's Jason Kelsey for you.
I was waiting for it.
I wish I could jump higher, like Travis.
I wish I could dunk a basketball.
Yeah.
You're hilarious.
Anything else we want to hit from this week?
We got a dick punch.
Guys do strange things every single day in that field.
I saw George Pickens got tackled by his dick.
It's a very strange sport.
I feel like punching somebody in the dick isn't strange at all.
No, no.
Pickens got tackled by it.
Pickens got it.
Oh, got you.
Brown got in there and yanked it down?
Yanked it down.
I wish I could get tackled by my dick.
There ain't no way that's happening.
Ooh, they go for the dick tackle and they whip.
It's funny, dude, getting, getting tackled by your dick is different than getting punched in the dick.
Yeah, very different.
Getting punched in the dick will get you fine for a game.
Getting tackled by your dick will just not, I won't even draw a flag.
It's a tug, not a push.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Roger Goodell is very specific in the rulebook about this.
Rams are rolling.
Rams are probably the most complete football team consistently in the NFL right now.
I think week in, week out.
Matthew Stafford is still fucking bowling.
He's taking whatever.
Tom Brady and all these other Hollywood folks are taking, I think.
Oh, you go out west, you get a little bit of that.
He's got something out there.
I don't know what it is.
There's some type of lotion that's keeping him young.
Oh, man.
And his fucking arm is still slinging like it's a fucking 18-year-old.
Oh, he is fucking slinging it, man.
Burroughs coming back.
Top Topic. Hot topic. How about it, man.
Bengals getting burrow back.
Honestly, that's a quick turnaround for an injury like that, man.
I know. I mean, they probably won't make the playoffs,
but it'll probably fuck somebody else's playoff dreams up,
which is reason enough, I suppose.
Hell yeah.
And he's a fucking competitor. You know it, man.
For sure.
Well, that does it for bold topics.

A lot of times we'll do like Disney on ice over the win.
I'm trying to think of the things we'll do on like.
Oh, a little Disney on ice?
Definitely want to hit the fly.

Small Business Saturday with American Express, and they encourage everyone to shop small and support
local businesses in their community. Did you know that American Express actually founded
Small Business Saturday? And now it's recognized nationwide. Did you know that?
As a fan of small businesses, I did know that. I've actually used my American Express at tons of
family-owned businesses all across Philadelphia.
I love going to mom and pop stores.
You do support small businesses.

founded by American Express.
Well, let's wrap up football
with some Stamps of the Week.
Stamp of the Week is brought to you by Xfinity.
Nominees, all right.
Who do we got?
Cowboys Special Teamer, Elijah Clark,
which, by the way, everybody keeps shouting this guy out.
I want to shout out fucking Sidney Brown
who beating the fuck out of this guy.
like Sidney Brown.
What do you mean?
He didn't get him.
The guy literally made the play.
Travis.
Bro, this dude makes the play.
I know he made the play.
Yeah, rewind it.
Rewind it.
Bro, you cannot block somebody better on a fucking punt than this.
What are you talking about?
You can actually.
You can stop him from making the play.
Travis.
This is ridiculous.
Declated him.
God damn it.
It doesn't matter.
Listen, I'll give all the credit to him in the world,
but I'm also giving Sidney Brown some credit for this.
This is fucking impressive as shit.
Oh, no, man.
I think it's kind of, he didn't finish the play.
He let him get up.
For Clark, that play went from like the, oh, man, I'm going to have to watch this on Monday in front of the entire team to now this is how resilient.
How much more resilient I am than the guy blocking me.
That's ridiculous.
I don't know if that's ridiculous.
I think that's kind of fair.
It's an absurd statement to say that it is more resilient than Sidney Brown is on this play.
That is a ridiculous statement.
Sidney Brown washes him down.
Sidney Brown literally stopped running.
Just because the rest of his team.
He literally doesn't get back into the camera.
He picked up somebody else.
He's not going to go catch that guy.
I don't know.
All I know is just because somebody else holds him up.
And when you're a gunner and you're one-on-one, that's your guy.
Oh, you were out?
You did part of return?
I mean, I've been in special teams meetings.
So have I.
And I think every special teams coach is weighing.
Is that a good block on gunner?
I would love to hear that one.
Initially, yeah.
Everybody knows this.
There's three phases to play.
There's a start.
there's the do your job and then there's the finish i gotta see the finish if i'm the special
team's going i'm screaming at every other person on the punt return team for not doing their job
so that the runner didn't fucking hit it a thousand miles an hour while clark was on his ass on the
on the ground what are you talking about just because it gets held up by other people after you just
a clean guy if everybody on this punt return was doing that they'd be scoring a fucking shit ton of
fucking touchdowns what are you talking about so just because you got him on the ground the
plays over plays not over oh the play's not over oh all right still a good
block.
Yeah, it's a solid start to the play.
That's the dumbest thing on the planet.
I'm not talking to you anymore.
All right.
Tershahn Ward, hilarious effort to get off the field to avoid a penalty.
Let's see it, Turk.
Turk, man, this guy's crazy.
I mean, he's just, I love.
I do love the effort.
Troy Eggman had a great commentary on that.
said that in baseball, when you run, they tell you not to slide.
It slows you down.
Yeah.
Kind of run through the bag.
Run through the bag.
That's how you run faster.
Yeah.
Probably taking this too serious.
I don't know why.
If it was a close play, I was always diving.
I just felt like my hand could get there if I launched myself.
But this has nothing to do that.
You're right.
He should have just ran through.
Not, I mean, I just love it.
I just love the, I mean, it's funny as shit.
Devante Adams set the record for most career one-yard touchdown catches with
15.
Man.
Pretty cool.
Oh,
past Travis Kelsey for the fourth most receptions
through a player's first.
These are some LeBron stats.
Jesus Christ.
Yeah, but
records and stats nonetheless.
Arch Manning became the first
SEC quarterback with a passing touchdown,
rushing touchdown, and receiving touchdown
in the same game.
Sentzac Prescott in 2014.
Also, is there a bar in Philly
where Brandon can watch the Texas, Texas again?
I mean, yeah, there's a ton of bars.
I need to like a Texas-friendly bar.
I need Texas-friendly bar.
Speaking of Xfinity, you can go to Expendity live.
All right.
Thank you.
Good plug.
It is close to the stadium.
Very close.
Right there.
I'm hereby.
I do not know any longhorn bars in Philly.
I'm assuming there are them.
We're putting the word out on this show.
We're putting the word out.
So we will get some replies on Twitter.
This was all bait.
Thank you, boys.
There you go, Bub.
Chiefs fan Sierra Jesso, who was so stressed during the Colts game.
She went into labor.
Oh, wow.
Yeah, there you go.
Oh, you're welcome.
Go, Chiefs.
Get that baby up out of you.
I know you're uncomfortable.
All right.
That does it for stamp of the week.
He didn't give out and he's standing in a week.
I'm giving my stamp of the week to Cindy Brown for fucking clock up.
And just because he made a play, I don't give a shit.
That's a great block.
Show us who you got.
Perfect block, Cindy.
Great block, though.
Just not great effort.
Yeah, not great effort.
You fucked the dude up and washed them all the way down.
And then let them.
This is the dumbest thing on the plan.
it's such a fucking bad take
it's so stupid
I'm right there with you man
I don't know how you think that's a good buck
special teams is all about effort man
he lost the effort battle
Travis stand for the week
I don't
these guys I just
James Winston
yeah I'll give it to James
do James give it to James
I'm going to James he gave us
one of the most beautiful cinematic
football plays
from start to finish on the reverse
pass into the camera
zooming in, it was beautiful.
James, thank you.
You get my stamp of the week, brother.
And that does it for Stamp of the Week.
Brought to you by Xfinity.
All righty, before we get to some Thanksgiving talk,
it's time to look ahead to Week 13
with our partners at Draft King Sportsbook.
That's right.
We've got an incredible slate of games.
So let's build a parlay that's ready for week 13.
Guys, come on in here.
What do we got, huh?
Hey, buddy.
All right.
Happy Thanksgiving.
Jake, what have got?
Jake, you've been trying to.
You're waiting for this line.
Jake Crudgeoned.
I'm so excited about this.
I'm so excited about this.
We got a Thanksgiving week.
So we got to see who's going feast mode and turkey trotting their way into the end zone.
We got three touchdown picks.
I knew you were going to react that exactly.
And I couldn't wait for it.
We got three touchdown picks for Thanksgiving.
I'm very excited.
Oh, we can sell.
We're going to stay away from the Chiefs game.
We know what we're rooting for in that game.
Conflict of adventures.
Conflict of interest.
Yes.
but Packers at Lions, I think we're going to start very easy with this one.
Jamir Gibbs Anytime Touchdown.
About a couple weeks ago on the pod, you guys were like, he moves faster than everyone else.
And I can't get that out of my head.
And every time I watch him, he's just burning someone on the field.
So my first pick of the week, Jamir Gibbs, anytime touchdown on Thanksgiving.
Yeah, I like that.
There was a great shot this week of Pinae Sewell celebrating the touchdown about 60 yards before he hit the end zone.
So yeah, I love Jemir Gibbs.
I will say the Packers, the last time,
the Packers and Lions played, Packers held their offense and checked quite a bit.
Different teams.
That was week one.
Week one.
The Lions have evolved now.
Yeah, I have a mustache now.
We're all different people.
I'm going to look at Bengals at Ravens, the return of Joey B.
I'm going to go with a Jamar Chase anytime touchdown.
I feel like Joe Burrow is back.
Now, this is one I can get on board with.
He's going to go straight to his boy.
He's like, I know you've missed me.
He had a week off for a spitting incident.
So he's rested.
He's got pressure.
fresh legs fresh legs i'm gonna go jamar chase anytime touchdown jake what's our third one all right last
game bears at eagles brandon and i will be in the link we'll be there very excited about this
we got to back our boy jalen hurts anytime touchdown for jalen hurts he's going to get
shoved into the end zone like stuffing into my mouth on thanksgiving i cannot wait to be at the link

Let's keep this thing moving and get into a little Thanksgiving since it's literally tomorrow.
How about it? Jason, are you ready to host the crew?
We got a lot of Whitworths coming in.
We got.
Oh, yeah.
Kylie's family.
We have four kids.
So I'm going to have to be wrestling these kids.
I don't know.
There we go.
That's what I'm talking about.
All fours.
Get on all fours is just start ranceling.
It's going to be a long day.
Start wearing them down.
Marcus Spears.
and I agreed to do a fast.
I'm about...
For what?
Just...
You agreed to do it during the holiday?
This is what happens when you retire.
You fucking do stupid shit like this.
And I'm agreed to do it.
And then we're going to...
It's over tomorrow morning.
I'm not going to do it for Thanksgiving.
I'm going to eat my face off on Thanksgiving.
I just feel bad about myself because I was at Disney World and ate a bunch of
freaking egg rolls and a bunch of, like, other things that probably aren't the best with
Dole Whip and all these...
Then I went to Wisconsin and shot.
of the prime rib and an ice cream drink down my face and wings and the weight's been going
up. So yeah, we're going on a fast. I'm about 36 hours in. Just the smell of food.
What do you? What are you? All right. So what is the fast? You're just not eating.
Do you know what a fast is? No. I don't. I've never entertained myself to know what fasting is.
So you're literally not eating. That's what a fast is, yes. And this is supposed to be healthier than
eating food? I think if you
don't eat food for long enough, it becomes
unhealthy. But apparently if you do it for the right
amount, it's healthy. I don't
know. Brandon, doctor
Dr. Brandon, can you tell us
a lot of
social media
and, uh, podcast
experts. How long you've been doing
this fast? P.H. tough. How long
I started at 11 o'clock yesterday?
So you're just doing like a morning,
36 hour, 48 hour fast?
48 hour. Yeah. I don't
Oh, 48 hours.
Yeah, that's okay.
That's like a reset.
Yeah, that's fine.
You just said you were 36 hours in.
I thought I said, whatever.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's just, you're unplugging it and plugging it back in.
You're doing exactly what we've said for four years.
That's a great reference.
I'm unplugging it and plugging it back in.
I'm not plugging back in, though.
I'm shaming it back in.
Oh, thanks.
It's like, real fucking.
I like have to try and, I've just been having so much caffeine and other things to try and
trying to distract me.
I love you guys are fasting right before Thanksgiving.
When you'll have a fucking awesome Thanksgiving to be fucking starving.
I might need a whole turkey by myself by that point.
Aren't you already the only one that eats the turkey?
When you fry it, everybody eats it.
Oh, all right, all right, yeah.
Nice.
Kylie puts the cranberry sauce on.
I mean, her mom and her make a turkey too.
I'm just a huge inconvenience on Thanksgiving because Kylie and her mom are making
everything.
And instead of just like watching the kids, I go next door and fry a turkey with Ed.
So for an hour of the day, I'm just completely useless and making an extra turkey that we don't need.
Have you gotten the turduckin yet?
We did.
Treduckin is in.
Oh, yeah.
No idea how to cook it.
Can't fry it?
Nope, can't fry it.
It's because of the stuffing?
Because it's stuffed with a duck.
I would assume it's kind of too big to put in the friar.
Well, the bird's the same size.
I just think because there's multiple things stuffed inside of each other.
Everything's better fried.
You can technically deep fried to duck him.
Hey.
Oh, okay.
Difficult to cook evenly.
It'll be fun to have the Whitworths in there and have some fun over there on Thanksgiving,
watching some football.
It will be.
I'll be playing football and then on a plane back to Kansas City.
So I'll probably miss a Thanksgiving meal unless we win.
and I get some turkey on the field.
All right now.
Hey, yo.
The New Heights team made an official New Heights Thanksgiving seating chart.

Drive an old granny's house?
