This is Dr. Jesse Mills, host of the Mailroom podcast.
Each January, men promise to get stronger, work harder, and fix what's broken.
But what if the real work isn't physical at all?
I sat down with psychologist Dr. Steve Poulter to unpack shame, anxiety, and the emotional
pain men were never taught how to name.
Part of the way through the Valley of Despair is realizing this has happened, and you
have to make a choice whether you're going to stay in it or move forward.
Our two-part conversation is available now.
Listen to the mailroom on the I-Heart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you
you get your favorite shows.
A new year doesn't ask us to become someone new.
It invites us back home to ourselves.
I'm Mike Delarocha, a host of Sacred Lessons,
a space for men to pause, reflect, and heal.
This year, we're talking honestly about mental health,
relationships, and the patterns we're ready to release.
If you're looking for clarity, connection,
and healthier ways to show up in your life,
Sacred Lessons is here for you.
Listen to Sacred Lessons with Mike Deloach

This show contains information subject to,
but not limited to personal takes, rumors,
not so accurate stats, and plenty more.
What's up, man?
This is your boy, Nav Green, from the Broken Play Podcast.
Look, it's the end of the season, the playoffs are here.
Guess what?
It ain't the end of your season.
You can always tune in with Broken Play Podcasts
with Nav Green on the Black Effect Podcast Network.
Not a team who ain't going to the playoffs.
The Chief.
It's time to rebuild.

Oh, Atlanta Falcons finalized the deal to hire Kevin Stapas as their new head coach.
The two-time NFL coach of the year flew to Atlanta today.
And now they're still under the head coaching job.
Now, I read that he invited him over to his home for dinner and he was going to have, you know,
a steak and potato bar.
But it's been reported that Mr. Blank cooked a real.
by himself.
He said, reiterated Matt Ryan
will be leading interviews
for the team's head coach
and general managers open.
Both Matt Ryan and Kevin Stefansky
have Philly ties.
Ryan grew up in the Philly suburb
and attended William Penn Charter
before starting at Boston College.
Stafansky is a Philly native
who played at St. Joseph Prep
and stayed home for college at Penn.
Question.
Obviously, you drafted a quarterback two years ago,
with the number eighth over pick Michael Penix Jr.
And you have first cousins,
Kirk Cousins,
still in the roster,
although that he might be transitioning
to get that Matt Ryan role at CVS as an analyst at the desk.
Do you believe Kevin Stafaski is the right guy?
Because at the end of the day,
anybody could coach this team,
but for Michael Pierce Jr.
Because I think that is the key.
Yes.
Hey, that's tough.
That's tough.
I'm not sure based on what I've seen.
I know at one point,
Kevin Spanskiy was two-time coach in the year.
I think if the quarterback position is solidified
and he can do something with Michael Pettings Jr.
If he feels Michael Pettig Jr. is the future,
which he has to be being a draft, you know.
So if he come back healthy,
but I know he's going to want some security,
he's going to need a security blanket
because Michael Pitting Jr. is injury prone.
So I'm not sure what that looks like.
I don't think they're going to allow Kirk Cuddin's to leave
because he will at some point if things don't go the way they should.
He will be that backup in that security bank of first to Fasdowski.
Because if you don't have a quarterback,
if you don't have a quarterback,
he's going to be right back in the same situation he was back in Cleveland.
I agree.
Now, he does have a much better supporting cast offensively.
He has a much better supporting cast defensively.
So I think they will.
Well, no, not much better.
Let me take that back.
Defensively in Cleveland, he had a much better defense.
But offensively, he has so many weapons at his disposal to work with.
I think he's going to, I think he's going to be okay.
Do we anticipate Stafaski calling plays?
Because remember, he gave up the play calling at mid-season
and turned those duties over to someone else.
I'm assuming that he's going to call the plays.
I think that probably was probably one of the contingents,
the plans of why he got the job is that you call the plays.
He's an offense in mind.
They need to get that offense.
I don't know who they're going to hire his defense.
I'm sure there are some great coordinators out there.
You can find a great coordinator,
but head coach is a little bit more difficult, especially if your expertise
is going to be an offensive.
well head coach is a little more difficult because you have more things to worry about you got to worry about the totality of the team as a coordinator all I'm worried about is the defense I ain't got to worry about special teams I ain't worried about no offensive line I'm as a matter of fact I got position coach to have everything I'm just going to die I'm just going to call a this is what we're doing right we're going to teach him best for you go ahead do you think he wants to take on that role why not just be the overseer of defense offense special teams as well and have an offensive
coordinator that is also an offensive mind
and allow him to do everything
so you can just be the head coach
and oversee everything. You probably told
Matt Ryan and Mr.
Blank that you were going to call plays.
That's one of the reasons you probably got the job.
Right.
And,
oh, I can fix it. I can get him
up his feed, blah, blah. You see what I did with
Baker Mayfield, you saw that, hey,
Joe Flacko, we were in a playout with Joe Flackle.
Yeah.
So Atlanta, so two jobs have been filled.
The New York Giants hire John Harbaugh, the Atlanta Falcons, hire Kevin Stapaski.
Well, you know, Harbaugh hadn't signed his deal yet.
They're still working on something.
Or he finally signed it?
He basically gets a situation where he deal directly with ownership
and the general manager deals directly with ownership.
Because the hiccup was that he wanted to hire his own,
and you remember he wanted to hire his own general manager.
and he used to report it directly to ownership.
Right.
So they kept that in place.
Also, the Greenback Packer was keeping Matt LaFleur as their head coach.
LaFleur had one year left on his contract extension.
He signed in 22.
Well, he signed a multi-year contract extension that ESPN said
is not a proven deal, but a real commitment.
The two sides met early in the week to discuss the future direction of the organization.
It was the first major decision by New York.
team president and policy
who took over in July
for Mark Murphy. It was Murphy
who hired LaFleur in 2019
to replace Super Bowl winning
coach Mike McCarthy.
You like this?
Also, they were reported
that they were working on extension
for LaFleur and Brian Gutakins
who was the general manager.
So, look,
that would be,
they got, look, you got the quarterback.
Michael, let's see how soon
Michael can get back.
You got a boatload of receivers.
Yeah, good receivers.
I think they need a corner, though.
The corner of the just so-so.
Is it mixing or Nixon?
One of them, all he does, get penalties.
Nixon, Valentine.
I can't think of the rest of the names.
I like McKinney, safety.
Oh, I love him.
McKinney, nice.
but.
McKinney and I,
he just led the NFL
interceptions, what?
A couple of years ago.
Not too long.
Byard led it this year.
And I don't know what happened
to,
we had him on the show, Ocho.
Yeah.
Or Sean Gary.
The man went like 10 left weeks
without a sack.
Yeah, I don't know what happened.
But, hey,
it's hard to get them sacks,
boy.
And they made them sacks hard to come by now.
They shouldn't be.
But look, I like this for LaFleur.
They shouldn't have lost this game.
They should have put them away when they had an opportunity.
And that didn't happen.
And that's why they're, you know,
they've got to keep love because he gets Nick at some point in time every year,
be a concussion, be a hand, be it something.
They got to keep Malik Willis.
That's who they got to keep.
Because when Malik came in, when Joe and Love had to go out,
they didn't have to keep him.
Somebody's going to pay him start money.
Maybe it's Pittsburgh.
Well, I like the way you think, man.
I like the way you think.
I like that.
I believe somebody's going to play him start his money.
I like the way you think.
When you say start of money, when you say start of money,
We'll be talking about.
I mean, that Sam Donald Baker-Mayfield, $33 million.
Okay, okay.
Okay, that's team friendly right down there.
Very, very.
So that's what I think is going to happen with that situation.
But Green Bay got pieces, you know, they can run the football.
The receivers, just keep Christian Wiles and healthy.
The other, the guy they got from Texas, what the guy from Texas?
Golden, Matthew Golden.
y'all got to give him some chances man y'all got to give him opportunities and stop that gadget
with him now let that man get down the field um now you're probably going to lose i mean you're
going to lose some of them i mean you can't keep everybody you got read you got roboe dobbs
got wicks yeah you're going to probably lose a couple of those guys but christin watson if you can just
stay healthy uh i do believe matthew golden will get better in the second year than he wasn't
first year, they got to make them something special.
Remember, they lost craft.
They're tied in with New Year's.
He'll come back.
He's a very lot, reliable receiver, one of the better tied up than the league.
So I like Green Bay.
But it's puzzling to me that Rishon Gary with Michael Parsons on the other side.
I mean, he got up to that great start, oh, he had like seven sacks.
And I think seven, seven, a half.
He ended the season with seven, seven and a half.
Yeah.
That tells you, that shows you
just how difficult it is to get those sacks,
even with Mike on the other side,
and even with Michael,
Mike in his absence on how difficult it is.
No, because like a deal,
I was talking to DeMarco's Ware,
and he's like, look,
if I play 60 plays,
I can suck 59 of them.
All I do is get one sack.
If I get one sack,
every game,
that's 17 sacks.
Name a season that I'm not going to make the pro bowl
with 17 sacks.
Name a season that I'm probably not going to be a first
or second team all pro.
So that's the thing,
Ocho. I can suck. He's like to suck 59 plays.
I just need to be successful.
Because I asked him, Gary Zimmerman,
he was the officer of tagging for five,
93, 9, 4, that's it, five years.
All decades, two decades, different decades,
80s and the 90s.
I was like, man, and he was just like,
he would just be beside himself if he gave up a sack.
He like Sharper, you know, he'd say, he says,
I don't even want the guy to touch the quarterback.
I don't even want the quarterback.
I don't even want my guy to pressure the quarterback.
He said because that joke would suck.
He can suck all day long.
And if he gets one sack, he'll hero.
Yeah.
And I don't want to be a hero on my watch.
You know, you know, it's funny when you explain the way
the market is where explained it.
Suck in 59 plays.
just getting a sack once.
If I do it was 17 games,
just one time,
that's 17.
That's 17 sacks,
don't you?
You see how us saying it like that?
The way he said it,
how it sounds easy,
but how difficult it is
to actually achieve and attain
something that sounds so easy.
Because if it was that easy,
everybody had 17.
You know?
But, man.
Just like pass catching is an art form,
rushing the past is an art form.
Yeah, because, I mean,
you're doing thing,
but I'm doing thing, but I'm saving something.
Because I know I'm going to get you out, okay.
You think I'm just going to speed rush you all the time.
Now, okay, do I bull you now?
Do I hit you with the Frini?
Do I put you in the spin cycle like Dwight Frini?
Mm-hmm.
Do I post you?
So, but it was, it was, I think Green Bay, look,
I think Green Bay had to get this.
I mean, of all the coaches out there, like,
now it's being reported that Mike Tomlin,
it's going to, you know, be out of coaching in 26.
Well, if you go back and think about Ocho,
the coaches that left Pittsburgh, they never coached again.
Chuck Null, never coached again.
Coach Cowher, everybody had these speculations
by Coach Charles was coming back.
He never came back.
Yeah.
Mm-hmm.
I don't think he wants to coach anymore.
I don't think he wants to come back.
I mean, he walked away from $16, 17 million a year.
Hey.
It's a lot of responsibility.
I mean, if the player think about what you got,
but just think about what you got,
because I got a word about you, 53, knuckleheads.
And really, no, I only got to worry about like three or four of y'all.
For the most part, the guys are going to do the right thing.
Yeah.
It's one or two that I got can't sleep with my phone on silent.
I can't, oh, y'all, I can't.
You laugh at it.
I can't.
Man, that's every team is always, I mean, four is a bit much.
I think maybe two or three.
You got one or two, three maybe.
Maybe.
And the one or two probably
cool with each other.
Yeah.
So now we've got the giant
job field.
We got the Falcons job field.
We still got Tennessee that's open.
Still got Arizona that's open.
You got Pittsburgh that's open.
Yeah.
Somebody else is open, too.
Arizona, Tennessee, Pittsburgh.
We got Giantsfield.
Raiders.
Raiders are still open.
Yeah.
And you got to think those teams also, man,
those teams you go to,
you understand the issues that they're having right now.
You got to go in there with a plan.
Oh, yeah, for sure.
You got to go in there with a plan
because if you don't have a plan,
but at least it's going to be short.
Yeah, you got to go in that thing.
It's Bob the Builder.
Man.
Because you know, you know, owners have expectations.
We're bringing somebody in.
Thinking you're going to be the one,
your turn and change this thing around.
Oh, so we haven't gotten an opportunity to talk about what we were doing in New York.
A new year doesn't mean erasing who you were.
It means honoring what you've survived and choosing how you want to grow.
It means giving ourselves permission to feel what we've been holding
and knowing that it's okay to ask for help.
I'm Mike Dalarocha, host of sacred lessons.
This podcast is a space for men to talk openly about mental health, grief, relationships,
and the patterns we inherit, but don't have to repeat.
Here, we slow down, we listen, we learn how vulnerability becomes strength,
and how healing happens in community, not in isolation.
If you're ready to let go of what no longer serves you,
and step into the year with clarity,
compassion and purpose.
Sacred Lessons is your companion on your healing journey.

Hey there, this is Dr. Jesse Mills,
director of the men's clinic at UCLA Health
and host of the Mailroom podcast.
Each January guys everywhere make the same resolutions.
Get stronger, work harder, fix, what's broken.
But what if the real work isn't physical at all?
To kick off the new year, I sat down with Dr. Steve Polter, a psychologist with over 30 years' experience,
helping men unpack shame, anxiety, and emotional pain they were never taught to name.
In a powerful two-part conversation, we discuss why men aren't emotionally bulletproof,
why shame hides in plain sight, and how real strength comes from listening, to yourself and to others.
Guys who are toxic, they're immature, or they've got something they just haven't resolved.
Once that gets resolved, then there comes empathy as in compassion.
If you want this to be the year, you stop powering through pain and start understanding what's underneath, listen to the mailroom on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your favorite shows.

We're going to collab with Netflix.
We got an opportunity to walk the red carpet.
We've got an opportunity to meet Matt Damon and Ben Affleck.
But we haven't had an opportunity to talk about the movie.
The movie is based on a true event.
they added a twist on it
so we don't want to give you too much away
but right
and I think it was 2018
in Miami Lakes they got a CI
gave a call about
potentially money being
some of cash being in the home
they get a warrant
and they go in and in that home
there were actually $24 million in cash
in the movie it was $20 million
but Matt Damon,
they're all on the police force.
So that's the question that we were asking everybody,
you go into a home,
it's $20 million in cash,
what's your play here?
You take it all, you take some, you take none.
It's reported that they turned everything in.
In actuality,
so you said that they turned 24 million in,
it was probably like 35, 40 in the house up.
Easily.
Easily.
You got to understand, especially in a situation like this, when you get a tip like that,
when you get a tip like that, you know it's inside.
You know it's the inside job.
It's inside.
We're going to give you this.
You know, I'm not going to put too much on it.
But you have to have people that you trust when you're going there.
It can't be like in the movie American Gangster when they found that $1 in that trunk and he may
do turn all of it in.
and you had the whole task force looking at him like you were crazy.
That's life-changing money.
That's life-altering money.
And I know you're supposed to be honest.
Yeah, you've got to be integrity.
Protect and integrity and morals and all this.
Man, the hell with that shit.
If I don't cost $20 million, listen, we're going to think of a plan and we're keeping it.
Oh, Joe.
We keep it.
We keep it.
I told, I'm not to, hey, man, listen, see?
You see what I'm talking about?
See, this is we have disagreement?
and I'm going to have to off you.
I'm going to have you.
I'm going to have you.
I want no partner.
But I don't want him as a partner.
Okay, I might get a partner, but I don't want him as a partner.
Hey, hey, uh, 20,
million?
You got to think we police officers.
We own a police officer salary.
You already do that.
We make $35,000 a year.
And we run across $20 million.
Hold on.
We run across $20 million in a house with,
if, if it is,
If a house has 24 men in it,
that means whoever's making that kind of money,
they can,
they ain't missing that.
They ain't missing that.
Anybody that just had 24 men
just stashing the wall?
Oh, that ain't.
Man, that's,
a part of this.
So, Matt Damon,
Ben Affleck characters,
Tiana Taylor,
Cajé,
Stephen Young,
Richard Chandler,
Maria Sandino,
Marino
Kyle Chandler
Kyle Chandler
What's a
Sandino
Moreno
What's her first name?
Sacha Cajer
Catalina
Now there's a lady
That's in the house
She's there
She probably calls
But anyway
She says it's her grandmother's house
Or she's just there
Grandmother and they blah blah blah
So for the song
So they come in and they
You know hey
They brought the
dog in there, the dog smells money.
Like, you know,
they have a dog that smell fentanyl,
they smell cocaine, a weed,
whatever the case may be.
But this dog is trained to sniff out money.
Dog goes in the house,
go crazy.
Go crazy.
And
I start hammer it out the walls.
And
from the beginning, I'm like, okay,
are they good guys or they bad guys?
they're going to keep this or what they're going to do?
Hold on.
You got to understand certain people that are good, good guys.
That money turned your...
It turned your different way, man.
To see that kind of money, but we're going to check back in probably Wednesday
because this will give you an opportunity.
If you haven't watched it Saturday, I mean, Friday when it came out,
you haven't watched it Saturday, Sunday maybe.
So hopefully by Wednesday, everybody,
will have an opportunity to watch it.
And so we won't give away too much.
But we want you to go watch it
and then we could all talk about it
and you're like, okay,
because I don't think you're going to see the plot.
I don't think you're going to see
because what you think is going to happen
probably is not going to happen
in the way that you think it's going to happen.
And so it's going to be very, very interesting
because I didn't,
a lot of the characters I didn't think
was going to be in play.
So we'll see.
But I thought, I thought,
Tiana Taylor,
I thought they did a great,
I thought they did an unbelievable job.
Ben Affleck and Matt Damon together,
they're magic.
They're magic.
From the time,
I think the first time that they,
you know,
wrote something together,
directed something together,
was Goodwill hunting.
Matt Damon and I think Robin Williams was on screen.
But, you know,
I like Ben Affleck.
I don't know if you got an opportunity to see the accountant.
I think an accountant is unbelievable.
He directed Argo.
but you know Matt Damon in the Boren I did it
and born supremacy.
I like Matt Damon.
I like him.
Yeah, one of my favorites,
obviously my favorite Ben Affleck movie,
he's done some good ones,
but I don't think nothing is as good as the town.
Oh, yeah, yeah,
by Charles Town, Massachusetts, yeah.
They're robbing him back, yeah.
Yeah, him and Jeremy Ritter.
That's a classic, boy, that is a classic.
So, yeah, I want you guys, you guys watch it.
and then let's let's reconvene.
And I will reconvene on Wednesday
and then we can get more to detail
because I want to give you a chance to
because I don't want to spoil the ending.
But I know you're not going to see.
I know you're not going to figure it out
what's really going on
until the very, very end.
And still, I don't think you're going to be sure
that what's going to happen because
I'm sitting there, I'm thinking like,
God, damn.
You got a nice, you got a nice plot twist to it.
Oh, yeah, oh yeah.
Very nice.
Yeah.
So go watch the rip.
It's on Netflix.
Matt Damon, Ben Affleck,
Tiana Taylor, Kyle Chandler,
Stephen Young.
They got some.
I know one thing.
Sasha Carje.
I'm just trying to recall.
I'm just trying to recall after my head.
Catalina.
They could have changed that cat.
I hope I, ma'am, I hope I got your name right.
I really do.
I know I got the Catulina and the Sedino.
So I hopefully
They could have changed the cast members.
They're on the Taylor, Stephen Young,
Catalina Sandino Moreno,
Sasha Kajey,
and Kyle Chandler.
Catalina
Sandino, Moeno.
Moeno.
Hey, you know, hey,
if we was in there,
boy,
wouldn't have been no movie,
boy.
Yeah, because I go in the house.
I'll give me my four, five,
I'm up out of there.
I let somebody else.
How much?
4-5
I don't need
I don't need about 4-5 of the Home Depot
buckets
They already got it marked out
Like 150, 250, 250, 300
We got it all nice and packaged
And everything
Listen, you say you want to turn something in
We're going to turn in a million
A million dollars, don't you?
We're turning to a million
That's all we found
That's all we found
We go to jail
We keep a 19
We keep a 19
We can split
We can split it down.
We can split it.
Or have you,
happy you want to do it.
So you're going to bust it down three ways.
Three ways.
We're going to bust it down two ways.
Ocho,
I don't know if I can trust you, Ocho.
Trust who?
I can't trust you.
You don't want to turn my ears.
Nah.
No.
Ocho.
Why we just can't keep 15?
Why we can't keep 50?
We got seven and a half a piece.
I don't like that.
Ocho, seven and a half?
work a
think about it
we can work a couple of more years
hey
get to where we can get our pension
work who a couple of more years
I'm getting on desk
I'm getting on desk duty
and I'm putting my two weeks notice man
shit
man I catch all man
guys make sure you go
check out the rip
on Netflix I promise you
I promise you you won't regret it
oh Cho it's time to play a face
presented by prize picks.
Drake May
at least one passing touchdown.
Yeah, yeah.
Absolutely.
Boy, that's gonna be a game there.
Yep.
Good game.
I'm gonna say more.
CJ Stride more than 0.5.
Yeah, he'll have at least 5 yards passing.
Point five yards.
So he needs to just have one yard.
More.
Caleb Williams left in 220.5 pass yards.
Man, that weather going to be something crazy.
Yeah.
That's what guys be concerned, Ochoa, it's the weather.
Ideal's situation, yeah, he's going to pass for that.
They do have the number one rushing attack in football.
They could always lean on that.
That's something you can lean on in weather like that.
lean on the running game and only throw when you have to throw.
I would say less, less than 220.
Matthew Stapper less than 262.
So that means he got to have less than 263 pass a yard.
You think it have more or less.
Oh, I think more.
The 262 in those conditions?
Yeah, because I just saw him play against Philly.

Every January, we're encouraged to start over.
But what if this year is about slowing down
and learning how to understand ourselves more deeply?
What if this year is about giving ourselves permission
to feel what we've been holding
and knowing that it's okay to ask for help?

Hey there, this is Dr. Jesse Mills,
director of the men's clinic at UCLA Health
and host of the mailroom podcast.
Each January guys everywhere
make the same resolutions. Get stronger,
work harder, fix, what's broken?
But what if the real work isn't physical
at all? To kick off the new year,
I sat down with Dr. Steve Polter, a psychologist
with over 30 years experience,
helping men unpack shame,
anxiety, and emotional pain they
were never taught the name. In a
two-part conversation, we discuss why men aren't emotionally bulletproof, why shame hides in plain sight, and how real strength comes from listening to yourself and to others.
Guys who are toxic, they're immature, or they've got something they just haven't resolved. Once that gets resolved, then there comes empathy as in compassion.
If you want this to be the year, you stop powering through pain and start understanding what's underneath, listen to the mailroom on the iHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your favorite.

Going to get you out of here on this.
It's time for our final segment of the evening.
It's time for Q and A.
Hey, matter of fact, you know what happened before we get the Q&A tonight?
Man, I had, man, I had a fight, man.
And, you know, we family chat.
We family.
I can tell y'all, man, a fight with some dude named Tony out here, man.
I know they deployed it.
I knew there's a catch to it.
Huh?
But I'll play a law.
Tony who, Ocho?
No, he just said he don't like me saying his name backwards.
No, I should.
I ask him, why not?
Why do you like you said, his name backwards, Ocho?
I mean, Tony Backless is, why not?
I have mercy chat.
See what I go through.
Kepra Norwood Jr.
Man, I thought Aunt was about to be like Florida Everett
and Broncos Law.
Damn, damn, damn.
Man, I was going to be so upset, Kempra.
I ain't even lie.
Uh, Joe's in 1984.
What's good?
Um, you think about Matt signing that contract as a huge Packers fan.
I love it because he's good play caller.
Your thoughts?
Yeah.
I mean, look, I mean, he's been in the playoffs for the most part since he's been there.
Uh, you know, I think the only time I was disappointed in him is that when they got Tampa
and they kicked the field goal and they didn't.
let Aaron Rogers, you got an MVP, and you didn't let him try to make something to happen.
But of that, yeah, I think he's a great play caller.
I absolutely do.
Marcus Fragge donated $100 to give his wife a shout out.
May I get a shout out and say, happy birthday to my beautiful wife, Morgan.
She loves the channel, and we've been subscribers since episode one.
Keep up the great work, fellas.
And thank you, Marcus.
Thank you for your support.
You and your wife, Morgan.
Happy birthday.
hopefully Marcus took you somewhere.
Y'all went to a nice dinner, maybe movie.
Do people do, what is it?
Is it dinner at a movie or is it movie and dinner?
Which is it?
That's a good one.
Can you do both in the same night?
I tried it.
I was asleep because once I eat.
That's too, yeah.
I'm tired, boy.
And I can't do no movie, no, five o'clock moving.
They go to dinner, eight, no.
Now, you got to pick one or the other, man.
Pick one of the other.
Are we too old for that?
Yeah, man.
That we were young, we could do that.
I mean, I used to have the patience with Job.
I mean, I could use sitting there and move it and watch three.
I mean, it was, it wasn't nothing for me to go like every Saturday
to watch at least two movies.
I mean, I've done three, I've done six in a day,
but I can't do it now.
I ain't got the patience.
I just don't.
True infamous, Stephen A, and all darnal haters,
owe that man an apology.
And the Ninus fans can't say foot or bow.
Bang, bang.
Nine or bang.
Hey, Sam Donal has been playing this tail off.
They've been playing this tail off.
Hey, they might tell that contract up and, hey, come on,
we're going to go and do right by you.
I don't think they can do it right now
because they got spoon they got to deal with.
I don't know if you can keep both spoon and rolling.
Nobody got to go.
I don't know.
You can do that.
And it'll have to do something with Ernest Jones.
That's a good problem to have.
It's a good problem to have.
Because next year, you're going to have to do something with JSN.
Boy, he fin of reset the market.
You be absolutely right.
LeVar four,
Ogunocho, do y'all think
that was Sean's last game coaching the bills
who's more favorable matchup for the Broncos,
Houston's a Pat.
There are no favorable matchups
without your starting quarterback.
There is no starting quarterback.
There is no backup quarterback that said,
look, you're at home.
but you're going to have to play a near flawless game
and your defense is going to have to take the ball away on multiple occasions.
I mean, I guess, I mean, I would say Houston, for the simple fact,
CJ will give you an opportunity for a couple of bad plays.
But New England, man, they're good.
They fundamentally sound.
They can run the football.
Stephad Diggs making plays, Bouté, those tight ends with Hooper and Hunter Henry.
that running game that you got, Ocho.
Very nice.
Henderson and Stevenson.
Henderson.
Damn.
Oh, man.
Well, I'm going to go to the Super Bowl.
Damn it, we go into the Super Bowl.
Forget that.
Do you hear me?
Send a shout out to me.
To me and my lady, we just got engaged,
DJ and Fowler.
And we have a baby boy on the way,
Jekir Amir Gilean.
Okay, congratulations.
Did you file you?
Getting engaged and got a baby boy on the way.
That's the way to do it.
That's a way to do it.
Congratulations.
Hopefully everybody's okay.
Can't wait.
Hey, let us know when the, uh, so we give your, uh, what did, what, what did you say?
You can say congratulations on the marriage.
What do you do?
Is there something that you say?
I mean, you've got to get married.
So, I mean, you probably should know that.
Who?
You.
I'm going to get married.
We're going to get married.
I'm going to say I work out for you first.
Oh, no.
I told you, I'm trying to save money.
I thought we were going to have a wedding at the same time.
Oh.
Yeah, you know, in Vegas, you know you're in Vegas.
You do a dual wedding.
You can have all.
We just go to a grocery store, get a cake.
That's a couple of days old.
We're dressing up.
we'll frost it ourselves.
Yeah.
Bearface 206.
Thank you, Minnesota.
Yeah.
Yeah, thank you, Minnesota.
Because you might have made Seattle a beast.
Might have made Seattle a beast.
Excuse me.
Yeah.
G. Hernandez Rams.
No, my homie, Burrell, Lamar.
That was Josh's golden opportunity, and he blew it.
Teams are only getting better in the AFC,
and he might not get a ring in his career.
Yeah, you're right.
I mean, you got to think about it.
Danny went to the Super Bowl in his second year,
that great historic season of which he threw for 5,000 yards
and had 48 touchdowns and he never got back.
John had to deal with that for 14 years.
He's really good.
He's great, but Peyton had to deal with that for a number of years.
He's good, but everybody doesn't have the career like Brady.
Brady's first year as a starter,
his second season in the league,
Super Bowl.
Takes a lot of pressure off you.
Mahomes.
Second season of league,
first season started, Super Bowl.
Everybody does
everybody does get to have that luxury,
man.
So, yeah.
And until until
he gets there and gets it done,
it's the same thing.
We're going to have these conversations,
not just with Josh.
We're going to have that
with Lamar. We're going to have that with Joe Burrow
until they get there and win it. That's just the way it goes.
You got to get that monkey out of your back. You got to.
T.S. Carwatch, Detail, Service. Josh
never going to win a ring.
Burrell was going to get one
before him. Now Bears
versus Seattle, Pat's versus
Broncos. Heard it here
first. Philly talked that with
PA. Number one, Russia, top O
line, best tight-in room, defense, keep him
in the game. Keep that same energy
for Allen y'all have for Hertz and Lamar.
Allen had as many turnovers today as Hertz had in his whole playoff career.
Did you listen tonight?
No.
You just, are you just going to join?
Guys.
Oh.
Guys that have won the MVP, we judge them harsher because you have an MVP.
Lamar gets put in the cat.
Think about it.
There hasn't only been there.
There are less than 10 quarterbacks that have multiple MVP's.
And you want us to judge Lamar like he's a normal game.
It's impossible.
We didn't judge LeBron like a normal guy when he had those MVP's in no rings.
We didn't judge Jordan like a normal guy.
We didn't judge Jordan like a normal guy.
When you get MVP's, you get to another level of expectations that comes along with it.
Right now, Josh, Lamar, Josh, and Joe has underperformed
based on the talent that they have.
Lamar, because he has two MVP.
There are a lot of guys that have one MVP
at the quarterback position.
There are very few players
that have multiple MVP's.
Lamar is the only quarterback
with multiple MVP's
and no Super Bowl appearances.
Now, he's still in only year eight or nine,
so he has another five to ten years to get there.
But until then, come on, guys,
don't make it that much complicated.
y'all know how they did Steve Young
and he was in the shadow of Joe
y'all remember when he beat San Diego
and Gary Plummer took
he said get this off my back
and Gary Plummer took the monkey off his back
come on
what are we doing here? I just don't know
I just don't know what you're
I don't I don't
Eric Black 80, go home
time is tight in Seattle for next
visitor
yeah I mean
The Broncos play the early game.
They play at, I think, three Eastern, right?
Five o'clock.
Five o'clock.
The Broncos play at five?
At three.
Yeah.
Yeah, you're right.
At three.
So, yeah, yeah, but yeah.
Because I land, I land, I landed four.
So I'm going to be watching.
I'm going to watch the first half on the plane.
I think that's what time to play.
Let me see what time to play.
Yeah, they probably, probably 3.30 because they say 5th, say 530, I looked at the schedule next week.
At 3? It's at 3.m. 3 Eastern, which is one of, which is one of a lot.
Next week.
Which will be one, which will be, huh?
Right, one mountain, right. Yeah.
Brutal metalhead.
Then why does the media keep saying the Texas have the number one defense?
We already saw that episode.
because you do.
But it's close.
It's like 278 to 283.
You do.
I mean, Seattle and Houston have the two best defenses.
Scoring defense, and I think Broncos are number three.
So when you look at scoring defense, total yards defense,
you look at interceptions, you look at sacks.
Clearly, the Broncos have, Broncos got like 71 sacks.
in regular season and the postseason.
Nobody's close to that, but you look at the points.
Seattle gave up, what did Seattle give up?
Nine?
What did they give up? Six.
You ever six points today?
What did the Patriots give up last?
What did the Patriots give up last week?
Who the Patriots played?
Hell, I don't forget who the Patriots played.
But if the, oh, yeah, the,
Chargers.
Yeah, what was the final score?
16 to 3.
So they gave up three.
And then you look at the Texans.
They gave up 6.
So 6.
6.
3.
And the Broncos gave up 30.
But Buffalo has a better offense than all the teams that we mentioned.
Trial Brown, 309.
Oh, Joe.
The Broncos win at all, you got to double that 5,900.
That'll be the most improbable run in NFL history.
Without just starting quarterback, yeah.
Devin 7606, Little Bo Peep had trouble throwing over his sheep.
Truso Cat 67.
Broncos need to sign Tom Brady as a QB.
I don't think he want to do that to his.
team. I definitely don't think he
want to go against his team.
Reb Debo 73. Can
we stop talking, Alan, than Mahomes.
Talk now. Mahomes is better than
Alan. The last two years,
if we're just talking about play,
we know Mahomes, nobody that's currently
played is more accomplished.
But over the last two years, Patrick Mahomes has not
been the Patrick Mahomes that we're used to
see it. It's okay, guys.
Yeah. Even if you say Josh Allen,
even if you say X, Y, and Z,
That doesn't diminish what Patrick Mahomes has already accomplished.
Sometimes I think when you say somebody is better,
that means you're saying, well, all the awards that they won.
No, this will update your league.
The last two years, Patrick Mahomes has missed the Pro Bowl.
Josh Allen has made the Pro Bowl.
Josh Ellen was the first team all pro last year.
Josh Ellen was the MVP.
You don't get to keep saying because I have more Super Bowls than said player.
That player is better.
Right.
doesn't work like that.
I mean, because if that's the argument,
that means you're saying right now
that LeBron and Steph Curry
is better than Nicola Yokic.
And he's better, he's better than,
than, than, than, she.
That's what you're saying.
If we're just going to use your analogy
because somebody has more rings,
you're saying right now that LeBron
James and Steph Curry are better
than Nicola Yokic and Shee Gildjus.
Are you willing to say that?
Absolutely not.
Kevin Boutonite, our Niners were resilient all year,
but all the injuries took their toll tonight.
We'll be back strong next year.
Got to keep these guys healthy, man.
You guys have been dealing with injuries,
especially in the latter part of the season for the last couple of years.
Nothing but the tide.
Kenneth Walker ran through them boys like a knife through butter.
Yeah, he did.
And it seemed like every time they pull,
they got the tackle on the DB.
Every time.
Chantelle Porter 674
Broncos will not beat Seattle
or the Patriots
or the Patriots, excuse me.
But I sure hate that about
Bo Necks prayers to him also.
Josh Allen is overrated.
No, he's not.
I do not believe Josh Allen is overrated.
Alejandro Bernal
the second.
Ocho, love the pod.
What y'all been doing since day one.
Love y'all growing up, striving.
And could give my daughter Layla
Happy birthday shout-out
She turns eight at midnight
And she wanted me to ask you guys much
Yes, Leila, happy eighth birthday
Happy birthday
Cheez
Chucky Cheese
That's what I heard
That's what you do with
You know, even your young girls
And boys, they go to Chuckie Cheese
I don't know, I don't think
I don't think long young girls
Won't go to Davey Cheese
That's old
What did they go!
Disney World Disneyland
What if you ain't close to Disney?
World of Disneyland.
Get on the plane and you get close to it.
What if you ain't got, what if
you got Chucky Cheese money? Ain't got Disneyland
or Disney World money.
Okay, that's a good.
That's a good one. I like that. I see,
I like that. Okay.
Cali, one, two, three, four.
No Mahomes, no Jackson, no Burrow
in his way. I'm afraid Josh
will never win a Super Bowl. I don't like to say
never, but I don't think it gets
any easier because looking at it.
I think Drake May is going to get better.
I think Bo Nix is going to get better.
I think they're going to get some,
they're going to improve Lamar's offensive line.
They're going to get some help on the defensive side of the football.
Yeah, I think, I think the charges will improve.
Jacksonville's not going anywhere.
The Houston, Texas aren't going anywhere.
You're right.
It doesn't get any either.
It does not.
It does not.
And when you have an opportunity,
when the opportunity presented itself,
you got to take full advantage of it
because you don't know if and when those opportunities
is going to present themselves again.
Oh, that Cook's play with the same play
the bills were rewarded against the past
early this season. The same
Kobe and Shakur play, for example.
I don't remember to play out the top of my
head. I don't, but I take your word for it.
Jim Miller, 4559. Oh, where's the smoke
you have for Lamar? Josh Allen
played worse than Lamar.
Again, y'all just
come to leave messages. Y'all didn't hear
when Ocho and I said
that John Shalden played bad
and this loss
have to be pinned on him.
But what you guys tried to do,
y'all remember when Lamar Jackson
won the MVP that year?
And how many turnovers did he have
against Tennessee?
There was the number one seed.
How many turnovers did he have?
Y'all remember when he was the number one seed
in Kansas City came there?
How many turnovers did Lamar have?
See, what you do is that
you try to excuse every time Lamar plays bad,
you blame somebody else.
And then when when Josh Allen plays bad and somebody else,
you're like, oh, it's all Josh, this is all Josh.
I have never ever heard you or anybody say,
this was on Lamar.
You blame Zay Flyer with form of the ball.
You blame Mark Andrews.
But what about those turnovers Lamar had?
Ocho and I laid it out.
Ocho say, hey, this on Josh.
Four to five turnovers?
Yes, I agree, Ocho.
I agree.
He had a golden opportunity.
was the best quarterback remaining in the
AFC. He's the only quarterback that was remaining
that had an MVP. And he gagged it.
He did.
We said that.
But y'all don't want to hear
because if we say something about
Lamar, we step in and fetching.
We cooned it. We tap dancing.
Y'all don't want the truth.
Y'all don't. Y'all don't want it.
Because go back and look at Tennessee.
When he won the MVP, his first MVP, go look at that game.
Y'all blamed everybody else.
Y'all blamed the defense.
Look at the defense, defense, defense.
He turned the ball over three times.
His defense, defense, defense.
The Buffalo game last week, Mark Andrews, catch the balls.
What about those turnovers?
They won't say anything about that, huh?
Guys, in six games, Josh Allen had no turnovers.
and they still lost.
Yep.
None.
He had to leave with 13 seconds
and they got the ball on the 20th.
He got the opposing team on the 20-yard line.
And he loses.
When it's like that,
it's hard to put it on the quarterback.
I left the field.
I keep leaving the field.
And when I lead the field,
Ocho, we got to lead.
I come back on the field.
We're down.
I say, you know what?
I'm a lead to field again.
I lead the field with 13 seconds.
I don't see the ball again.
They changed the rules.
Ocho, you know, it used to be the first team to score an overtime win.
They changed the rules and everybody's going to get a possession.
Now, they don't need brain to measure and sticks out.
They got a thing out of computer chip into football.
They changed the rule for the time.
So they've given them every opportunity to try to win, Ocho.
They changed two rules.
Most quarterbacks get one.
He's gotten two rules changes, and he still hasn't won.
He trying to get him one now.
He did not play.
I mean, he played well, but I still can't overlook.
I mean, it's hard for, it's hard for me to put that Brandon Cook's turn over on him
because he put it in his chest, Ocho,
and the guy had Brandon Cook let him take the ball out of his hands.
But he's got to play better.
He's got to play better.
I mean, I don't know how he plays better, especially against Kansas City,
because, I mean, you score 36 points and you lose with no turnovers.
But guys, this is not a comparison.
Neither one of them have a championship.
So what are we doing?
This is not where we're comparing Mahomes and Brady or this guy or this guy or that guy.
Neither have a championship.
If you want to compare Kobe, LeBron, Jordan,
magic, bird,
Kareem, have at it.
But we're talking about
neither one of the guys know
a championship, so what are we doing here?
What do we do?
What do y'all want from Ocho or not?
Because we told you, Josh didn't play
well enough for them to win, and he cost them
the game with those turnovers. We said
that earlier, but that's not what you wanted to hear.
So what you want us to tell.
Just, hey, just type in what you want me
and Ocho to say next time, and that's what we'll say.
but guess what
we don't have to talk about Lamar
or Josh Allen
until what next what
September Ocho
that season over
old school 55 13th century
Uncle Ocho what do you think the bills need to get
to get them over the hump seeing Alan broke down
at the podium was hard to watch
yeah he's invested
it hurt the more you invest
and it doesn't work out the more it hurts
they're going to find him a number one receiver
we're going to find him a number one receiver.
I mean, they've got two really good tight ends.
I like Kincaid coming out.
I like Dawson Knox.
They can run the ball.
James Cook led the league in Russia.
They need a big guy.
I mean, their best receiver is five.
How tall is secure?
Five to you?
He looks shorter than that.
I wonder how tall he is.
He's six foot, don't you?
Damn he is.
He's six foot 190.
Which means he probably five, eleven.
He looks small.
like that, man.
I would say that.
I would say,
I mean, they got Oliver.
They got Russo.
They,
they brought in Bosa and Vanessa.
Shaq Thompson played
really well for him. They got Milano.
Poor he was out because of a hamstring.
The only thing I think they really need
Ocho is a
receiver.
Is it?
A bona fide number one.
Team Miller 68.
The crazy thing is, I think Stidham is a better path
than next.
I think you've been drinking,
and I think you need to put the bottle down.
I can't got no faith in the Bronco over now.
See, you see how you talking to see?
Ocho, we won.
And we're going to win next week.
We had both.
Oh, oh, oh.
Oh, now you're not going to win.
All I know, you're up here crying and sling it's not.
With Burrell was out.
Hold on,
hold on now,
hold on.
But listen,
you're saying,
y'all don't have a chance.
Oh, we got a chance.
It's a game.
Anything can happen.
But I would,
just like you wouldn't bet no money
on Flaccoe and Brother Brownie?
Okay.
Yeah.
Okay, I see what you go with.
Yeah, exactly.
I see.
Journey, call it.
It's my 57th birthday.
Can I get a shout out?
Happy birthday,
Jardy.
Happy birthday.
Do you?
You go to brunch with your girls.
You're going to church tomorrow.
I mean, what's going on?
What you, what you do to celebrate 57?
Another one dot, round the sun.
Some people didn't get an opportunity to see their birthday.
But you got an opportunity to see yours.
Hopefully, you did something special
and thank the man above for waking you up to allow you to see another one.
Yeah, matter.
Oh, she did turn 57 too, aunt.
Well, if you, if you single, you know, uh, you know, um, man, you know.
Huh?
I'm just trying to play a little.
a matchmaker?
I got this.
I got this under control.
I got it under control.
And Cabelot.
Keep it real now.
Bo Nix has ruled out
for the AMC championship game.
Can still them get it done.
Defense is going to have to stand on their head.
Yeah.
Because it's not like
it's not like they got a running game.
It's not like they got
Chicago's running game or Seattle's running game
or New England's running game.
That ain't what they got.
Yeah.
That's not what they have.
I mean, what, they have 70 yards rushing today?
If that, they got the work cut out for them.
These are two really, really good defenses.
I mean, they're going to face the Texas.
They're going to face the patch.
A really, really good defense.
The Patriots can run the football, play action pass.
They got guys that can make plays.
Excuse me.
Can he get it done?
Yes.
But they're going to be underdogs in their own building.
And all the money is going to be going on the road team.
Aaron Jones,
Shannon always disrespecting his viewers.
Flag football, really?
Okay, see how the Broncos play next week.
Keep that cognac on hand.
What you, how about disrepresenting?
No, I said, y'all didn't, you did, some,
some of the viewers didn't understand the rules.
I explained the rules about what a catch is because your team lost,
or you wanted to come on here and type,
you can't say foot or ball,
you said that was a catch.
I told you it wasn't a catch,
and I told you why it wasn't a catch.
But y'all get mad at me.
Carl Chephyrs told you why it wasn't a catch.
Get mad at him.
Get mad at the people that wrote the rules.
Don't get mad at the person that explained the rules to you.
B.S. Taylor Levin.
Cooks didn't fight to keep possession.
The ball was straight stripped right when he went down.
I mean, because he was going down,
It's one thing like when somebody coming,
they're trying to pull the ball,
tug the ball.
But when you're in the air,
it's hard to hold on to it
because you're not staying.
You're the feet are not on the ground.
That's why it's easy to get the ball out
when you're up in there.
Yeah.
You see a lot of guys when they try to die,
when they die,
when they die, but what they do,
somebody comes in there,
pooh, punch the ball right out.
The ball right out.
But it's like when you're in the air,
all you're like,
damn, you're not,
your mind doesn't tell you,
clutch the ball when you're in the air like that.
It doesn't.
Right.
And then by the time it's bang, bang,
he got the ball.
When it's bang,
he got the ball ripped it out.
Because think about it.
It's natural, Ocho,
because when you brace a look,
the ball's going to come away from your body a little bit anyway.
And that's all he needs.
So when you bounce,
the ball comes away a little bit
and he's already rolling over the top.
He got it.
All in one motion.
Ocean.
Cowboys fan 2254.
Des actually caught the ball.
NFL rules official.
Stay consistent, especially in the playoffs.
Dad, what did they say?
What did they say?
Des did not catch it.
Danz and I have argued with this on Twitter.
If,
Cowboy fan, if you go to the ground,
get up and hand the ball to the official.
Leo,
51, 98, 58.
Thanks for giving knowledge on the rules.
Some fan only want to listen to your input
when it matches their agenda.
Learning, you're absolutely right.
And I, you know,
oh yeah, you like my opinion
if it coincides with what you think.
But then when it doesn't,
I just told you what the rule.
I don't, I don't, hey,
the rules are the rules.
The rules don't know.
Well, you know what?
I think we need a favorite Buffalo today.
no, let's favor Seattle.
The rules are the rules.
And if we have to use the rules
when they come into play,
we have to use the rules
when they come into play.
And I remember we up in the booth
and it's like, man, he might have been down.
I said, no, he got to maintain position
throughout the catch.
And pay was like, that's right,
you're right, you're right, you're right.
Yeah, that was no catch.
If it, and if the ball had hit the ground,
they're going to say incomplete,
which I'm glad he held on to it because I didn't want to give Josh Allen
a little crack anyway.
Yeah.
Lotus Pott,
the same thing happened last year in the AMC championship game and they gave it to Kansas City.
Woo, Pig Sue E.
Pline Bluff, Arkansas native here, ISO is a hog.
Go, so after seeing ISO here for the first time,
ain't missed the Paz since.
Bring on some MMA guests.
Stay up.
Appreciate it.
Man, it's hard.
Man, people be in the bed.
Josh R. 2808.
No one cut breaks down football like nightcap.
Uncle Nocho, the best never do it.
Josh took a hard loss.
How do y'all push through hard moments in a game
when things don't go your way you want?
Make you better.
And see, that's why we say you celebrate the wins.
But let me tell you something.
Most people will tell you.
Winning doesn't feel as good as losing hurts.
I've never gotten the joy
of winning, the high, that winning,
like the hurt that lose to lose.
Ain't nothing like that, bro.
And I love winning.
That's hurting, but I think.
Oh, so I don't, you know, look,
I don't really remember there's some, like,
I can damn near tell you every loss
that really, I'm talking about all of them.
But the really, I can tell you.
And I can tell you definitely every loss I had from college to
NFL, be it Denver, Baltimore, I can tell you.
I mean, it's not a whole lot of losses that I've had in the last second.
Normally I was on the other side.
You know, I had John, we were doing more coming from behind
and snatching, you know, victory from the job of defeat.
But, yeah.
it definitely makes you hungry.
It makes you want to get back out there.
It makes you make you want to get right back in that situation.
Yeah.
Almighty James.
Ocho,
how was Brazil?
Awesome.
Awesome.
First time here.
First time here,
I've been all over the world.
This is my first time being able to come to Brazil.
Great.
I got to come again.
I got to come again.
The people,
the atmosphere,
the food was good.
hospitality was awesome.
Now, obviously, I got an opportunity to meet me two legends,
icons that I look up to.
And in Brazilian Rinaldo and Namar,
man, listen, words can't describe that experience, man,
but just know it was worth that seven-hour flight.
That are you to me.
Quincy Chapman, can you wish me and my twin brother,
Clinton, a happy 43rd birthday, them damn twins.
Yes, Quentin, happy 43rd birthday.
Quincy, man, thank you guys.
Thank you for supporting Nightcap.
Thank you for watching.
And Quentin, happy 43rd birthday.
Hopefully you did something fun today.
T.J. Mot 21.
Can y'all wish my boy a happy 28th birthday?
It was the 19th MLK.
Yep.
Happy birthday.
Boy.
I mean, you give us a name.
That would definitely help.
But happy birthday.
enjoy, do something fun, and go Broncos.
Francisco Garcia, NFL film,
finally giving Ocho's flower.
People don't remember the game against the Chargers
and the two following games that he was a beast, that boy.
Ocho, you put $200 on the Chargers?
Or was that, oh, you went back-to-back Chargers and Saints?
Or St. St. Chargers?
I had 206 against the Chargers.
Then the next game, I had 209.
and then after that
209 game I had 190
nothing.
See, Ocho, you should have say, hey, man,
they give me three,
200-yard game back-to-back-to-back-to-back-o?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I almost had 200.
Huh?
Don't you wish you like, man,
if I had known that, I said,
uh-uh, throw me a hitch,
throw me a smoke or something.
I'm going to get a fight.
I'm going to get that.
Hey, I get 200 to lay down.
Hey, hey, man.
Oh, do, hey, there was some days.
The funny thing about it is,
is you see how you take the game serious.
I was out there just having fun.
They don't tell me nothing.
They don't tell me, I'll be out there just catching the ball,
talking trash, and that's it.
I'm just playing like a little kid.
I don't be paying a penit.
I find out my stat line when the game over.
You just found out of then.
I got you at them 10 yards.
Mike, Mike, what's up, Ocho?
I saw the rip, and it's good.
When are you and Ocho and Iso going to start a movie together?
Now, we started something together.
You wait and you see what Ocho
Ojo an idea.
Oh yeah.
You wait and you see.
Well, Ocho ain't do much.
Don't load a villain.
Yo, uh,
I smiled a bit watching you share the tear
with the Jags long.
Go Duvall.
Hey, oh, look.
Was the Jags in the playoffs this year?
Oh.
Uh-oh.
We beat the team that beat you all.
Uh-oh.
Uh-oh.
Eric Boy, just got engaged.
Shout out engaged.
Shout out to my wife, Chantelle,
and our newborn daughter, Isabella.
Yes, Eric, congratulations.
Chantelle.
Grats.
Hopefully you and baby are nice,
are doing well, healthy.
And Isabella,
welcome to the world.
Congrats.
Snapback collector.
I'm from Buffalo,
and I don't agree with this loser mentality.
Try,
trying to justify that Buffalo got robbed
when four turnal was unacceptable.
Actually, you had five, but we had one.
So we just have to accept we got beat.
You did.
You turned the ball over.
You did something.
Josh Allen did something that he had done in the previous six
playoff game.
And for the most part, Ocho, he's played well.
I mean, yeah, he's lost.
But it's hard to pin those losses when you throw him for 300 yards
and, you know, you're doing what he's been able to do.
and you don't turn the ball over.
Now we can't say that.
We can't sit back and say, well, this is not on Josh.
We have to sit back and say, oh, this is on Josh.
He's carrying with the football.
There's no reason for you to be carried a football like this in O.
Dude, chopped down his hand.
I was like, son, get down, get down.
You're about to run the clock out.
Trying to make a play.
Get it Johnson.
If the Seahawks win the Sue Bowl,
it's only Mike McDonnell.
second year.
What does that say about Kyle Schenahan
with all those great teams that he's had?
There's nothing.
Kyle's gotten there two times.
He's gotten beat by Patrick Mahone.
You can make a case that Patrick Mahon is one of the three
greatest quarterbacks to ever play.
And he's not even in year 10 yet.
Yeah.
That says Mike McDonald's done a great job
and he has a really, really good team.

So come on, babe.
Show up for your up.
and Ocho. Again, the Seattle Seahawks moved to the NFC
championship game where the game will be home and they'll face the winner of the
Rams Chicago thanks to a 41-6 demolition of the 49ers. And the Broncos
will take on the winner of the Patriots and the Houston Texans,
thanks because they dispatch of the Buffalo Bills in overtime by the score of
33 to 30. But the win was bittersweet. They lose this quarterback,
bow necks, to a broken ankle.
I'm up, he's Ocho.
We'll see you tomorrow after the Texas Patriots and Chicago Rams.
Thank you guys for joining us.
I'm up, he's Ocho.

Each January, men promise to get stronger, work harder, and fix what's broken.
But what if the real work isn't physical at all?
I sat down with psychologist Dr. Steve Poulter to unpack shame, anxiety, and the emotional pain men were never taught how to name.
Part of the way through the Valley of Despair is realizing this has happened,
and you have to make a choice whether you're going to stay in it or move forward.
