Who's gonna lift the Lombardi Trophy? Whap! Fumble! Fumble! Fumble! Whap! Fumble! Fumble! Fumble! We start in Philadelphia where Saquon Charles Barkley was the round mound of touchdowns opening the scoring after some terrible tackling by the commanders. And like my good friend Max, Saquon was obviously winded at the end of the runs, breathing heavily and having big pants. Also like Max, Saquon flew and popped twice up the giant gut and rolled into the end zone making Washington go belly up. The story of this game was turnovers, not the ones Max eats, fat. And much like Max in the back tub, washing, ton, struggled to clean up their game. As the Eagles continued to pound the rock they began to tip the scales and put up a huge number Max

Ultimately, it was a great season for the commanders But much like Max Washington fans have to admit even though they took one on the chins being a good football team Was worth the huge weight as for the Eagles just like when Max has ice cream they go for the Super Bowl Did you hear about the Washington commanders like the the defensive players for the commanders what I told there's there were some bad LB's When I told Max I was gonna write this boomer. I said, I'm a cheer up I'm a cheer up my good friend PFT. Let me finish it Max as for the Eagles Just like when Max has ice cream they go for the Super Bowl where all your little each ice cream some on the party Is my boomer Eagles 55 commanders 23 you played really well teach also also boom They're very excited about getting to the licks

We go to Kansas City for our annual coronation of Patrick Mahomes as the bills come into town with the wagons Circled after a quick three out the Chiefs get the ball and proceed to March 90 yards with Kareem with me, Kareem for the year, Kareem for the laugh, Kareem for the tears, Hunt set Aerosmith Stadium ablaze. Buffalo responded to take the lead as Edgar James, almost cook, stood and delivered a score of his own. Xavier Tears, worthy, had another grande weekend, teaming up with Patrick Mahomes in a deep cut and then Mahomes ran one infrasection celebrated with a worst attempted spike since Bill Crosby. But the Bills needed to cut it to a one score game before halftime as Josh Outdrop back

back back back back back back back and found Mack Mack Mack Mack Mack Mack Mack Hollins cutting his lead to five before the break. The second half started like the bachelor party that Max will be invited to as the Bills kept rolling But the big man refused to get TD fucked Buffalo did their best impression of Patrick Mahomes senior putting together another wild drive before blowing two points This game was drunk folks and somehow Kansas City's often stalled out giving Buffalo the ball back with the lead Huh and on forked out in a touching tribute to William Jefferson Clinton's penis, the Bills

got a bad spot. Now the Chiefs have the ball and Patrick Mahappenheimer said, now I am become death, destroyer of worlds. And the Buffalo ties it up and Harrison, I like Big Buckers, responds by turning into Sir Kixalot, splitting the uprights like a thong. And now the Bills took a shot downfield on 4 fourth down and Dalton next of kin, Cade has been notified that their season is once again dead and when they die, they die nasty as the Chiefs look to make it three Super Bowl championships in a row winning 32 to 29.

And that was fastest two minutes presented by Chevy fastest two minutes presented by our good friends at Chevy Chevy has packed more Capability into the Silverado trail boss so you can pack more fun into your weekend have yourself a friday a saturday a and Sunday with the truck that says no to nothing tailgates spontaneous camping trips DIY project bring it on What about a cross-country road trip Silverado was a perfect ride for last year's?

Super Bowl 57, but we got to talk about the games first. And then we'll, we'll do some, some early thoughts on the Super Bowl. Let's start with Eagles 55, commanders 23 PFT. I got to take some medicine. That sucked. I got to take some medicine. We got our ass kicked. It was an ass kicking.

The fumbles really what caused the game to be such a blowout, but it didn't really feel like I got bad vibes from that first defensive snap of the game. When Saquon Barkley was one of my key to the games, it was not letting Saquon Barkley score long touchdowns. Yeah. And he scored a long touchdown right when he got the ball. The defense played pretty poorly today. Offense with the fumbles. It was an ass kicking.

And I will admit that it was easier to come back against Kenny Pickett when we're down a similar amount that was in the game. That was easy. He got in the game late. It was easier to come back against him in that offense. Jalen Hurts played awesome today. He played really, really good. Take one. Barkley's a beast. beast. Dickerson is a tough motherfucker. Cam Juergens, tough motherfucker on their offensive line. Yeah. Credit to them. I hear a lot of people talking about big picture. That's the words of comfort that people are giving to me right now is like, well, think about the, I don't want to think about the big picture right now. The big picture, who cares about the big

picture? I'm standing too close to the painting to think about the big picture right now. The big picture, who cares about the big picture? I'm standing too close to the painting to worry about the big picture. Big picture. That's, that's a conversation for another day. That's off season. Like I just watched Friday night lights yesterday, the movie big picture. Yeah. You could say Billingsley has a cool ass dad that loves to party.

Big picture. Boobie miles has twins that he loves very much. I don't care about big. I care about what happened today and what happened today was an ass kicking. We're very close to the Superbowl one game away. But then once that game started, it did not feel like we were very close to the Superbowl. Yeah. Jaden played awesome. I thought he played great. Uh, we're not counting that last interception. You actually said it before you're like, we're not counting these. If he throws a pick on this last drive, it doesn't count. I agree with that. Yeah. Yeah. Uh, it counts for Quinnian Mitchell. That

was a great interception by him, but that doesn't go against Jaden Stats in my book. Yeah, it was just, it was an ass kicking. The offense moved the ball pretty good, but when we did move the ball, we'd give it up on a fumble or it was, the fourth downs were looking good too, right off the bat. That initial drive that we took down the field, we only came away with three, but it felt like a good drive to set the tone hang on the football control the clock just manage take what they give you and You know then the Eagles went up and then it felt like we were never really in a position where it felt like it Could be real. Yeah, so it sucks. It sucks to lose

This is like this is a new feeling for me because it's it sucks to lose a lot of games but it also does suck to be close to going to a Superbowl and then losing that. Cause nothing is guaranteed. Dan Marino got to Superbowl his second year and he was like, I'll be back to plenty of these. Not necessarily the case. I think he made it back to two AFC championship games after that and lost both of those. So when you're this close, it sucks. But that said, I do realize that we've got a great quarterback. We've got, in my opinion, a great head coach for this moment.

And Adam Peters, a great GM. And also I will admit that Max was right when I didn't say, shut the fuck up Hank. When I didn't say fuck. He was. I think we all knew that. I think the wind horse fingers. Yeah. We knew by your reaction that it was it was probably true. Yeah, so my offseason. I'm trying to figure out levels of cope Levels of cope after this game. I'm not gonna stoop to the levels of certain people

I'm not gonna just say I blame the refs I saw a lot of that going on a lot of the Eagles are 7-0 when Sean Hockley refs their games We got our ass kicked that we they hung 55 points on us. That was an ad. I'm not going to blame that on the ref. Conference championship record. Conference championship record. Also tied the most rushing touchdowns. Yeah, it was bad. It was an ass kicking. It was

an ass kicking across the board. Our defense didn't play well at all. Uh, Latimore didn't play well. Mike Sandor still didn't play well. Mike Sandra still didn't play well. Nobody. I mean, maybe Jonathan Allen had a decent game. It was just bad. It was a bit, it was a bad thing to experience, but you know, maybe we'll get better. My off season is going to be spent just scouring top 10 quarterback lists.

I think that's how I'll go. And if I'm dissatisfied with where people put Jane Daniels, I'll get really mad at that. I feel like that's something I'm going to be focusing in on Jane Daniels, I'll get really mad at that. I feel like that's something I'm going to be focusing in on. That's a good view. See your energy. Also great performance by Max today. So next time on the couch, she spat on me like seven times accidentally hit me in my

eyeball. Yeah. And that was wrong. It was that one was wrong. It was, it was hell. It was hell. Send the similar Jalen Carter. So we are very similar.

Yeah. But I actually think max I wrote down his note like you should get to poke max in the eye Yeah, listen, he should come in here right now and you should poke him directly in the eye I wish he had hit me in both eyes so I didn't have to see the ass kicking. Mm-hmm It's very rare that you can see yourself getting your ass kicked. Yeah, it was um, it was a tough game for the commanders I mean the four turnovers or three turnovers or three fumbles were very bad, but I don't think that it was Obviously they're significant but also the Eagles offense was just running down your throat and Jalen Hurts was awesome

He that the game I I feel like came down to that fourth and five Shot played AJ Brown because that was a I think a 20 to 12 game at the moment at the time. And he makes that throw perfect throw. And he was doing everything. Saquon was doing everything. And the Eagles defenses is fucking good because it's as much as like Jaden played well, it also everything was more difficult for the commanders. Even that first drive, it was like 14 plays, you got three three and you did that a few times where it's like you get three, you get three instead of seven and you just can't do that against the team. Like the Eagles with the way they were playing on offense, it was way more difficult for us when we had the ball for sure. And yet the turnover sucked out of the terms are very significant, but also at the same time they turned those turnovers into touchdowns. Right. And that's what made it so difficult to come back from. Yeah.

And so yeah, at least we still have the Hard Rock. You still have the Hard Rock. That's Commander's territory. Can you play the guy's video? So for people who missed it, the Commander fan meet up at the Hard Rock in Philly last night. Philly, iconic space in Philadelphia. Yeah, everyone knows.

I saw a lot of Philly people being like, I don't even know where the fuck this is. But the Hard rock has fallen And this guy's speech was was so funny because it really was like what I would imagine they said once they stormed the beaches of Normandy and they and they finally got like the You know, they got control of France. They they entered into France This is almost exactly what it was like when they got the hard rock last night. All right, play it The hard rock has fallen

We wanted to have a safe space for all of us to be tonight, and that's what we did. I love each and every one of you guys. Seriously. We came out to make... You'll be your favorite. You take care of all these people at the Hard Rock. Yeah, good guy. I love it. Yeah.

He does seem like a genuinely good guy, and it's more just... The funniness is more just the fact that it was the Hard Rock. Yeah. And they're like, we came out here to accomplish getting, you know, 50 simultaneous reservations at the Hard Rock. Shout out, open table. We did it. That guy sounds a lot like Obama. It's not Obama. He's like, good evening. Tonight I can report to the American people report to the American people to the world that the Washington commanders have conducted an

operation that fully compromised the Hard Rock Cafe. Oh no, were they giving him shit on the way out? What were they saying? Great tailgate at the Hard Rock. The Hard Rock, the rocky steps It's so funny there was a hard rock cafe I think they went for the week that they went they figured out that if Philadelphia has one weakness it's that you can probably get a shitload of reservations on a Saturday night before the NFC championship game at the hard rock. That's the one.

Yeah. That's the one area of weakness that you guys have. That speech probably happens across America before every football game, every weekend, like opposing fans come to town. This guy was just unfortunate enough that it was videotaped and put out there as like a motivation And then it was 55 23. Yeah, it's uh, I like to imagine like What's the guy's name tailgate something? He had it on his back Anyway, I like I like to imagine this guy this week like sitting around tailgate Teddy

I think sitting around with like war maps out being like, should we go to for the Applebee's? What about the Chili's? No, sir. We've done some advanced scouting and the hard rock is weak. We can get into the hard rock. I've seen some vulnerabilities you take over the hard rock. Yeah. The scouted it out. We've, we've had, we've had advanced scouts at the hard rock all week, see Rock all week, testing their patterns and everything. I love that because for a moment, when I felt like the commanders might win the game, basically right after kickoff,

I just thought about how that Hard Rock will always forever be known as a Washington Commander's watering hole. The Hard Rock has fallen. And it'll just be like a place that you have to make a trip to whenever you're in Philly, like this Mecca. But yeah, listen, I no excuses It was an ass-kicking we got a

Rental defense full of bunch of one-year guys. It's gonna be a different team next year They were playing better than they did at the start of the year. But yeah, the defense was was not good today It's tough before we talk about the Eagles and let max Bathe in the glory here I also want to say shout out Frankie Louvue for letting us all know that a rule exists that I didn't know existed until today. It's called the palpably unfair act.

And apparently if you just do this, if you intentionally get a penalty over and over, the ref can just award a touchdown to the other team. So there was a moment in the third quarter, I believe where the Eagles were on the goal line and they were trying to tush push and Frankie Lou who kept on jumping over the line, trying to tackle Jalen hurts and getting an offsides penalty. And the ref said, this is a warning for a probably unfair act.

And if they continue to do it, we will award the Eagles a touchdown. I had no idea. Florio obviously was all over it. I guess it's been a rule since 1942. It's so like if if Mike Tomlin had stepped onto the field and tackled the Ravens returner on his way into the end zone. Yeah. Then you could award it like in rugby. They have it's called a penalty try. They do actually a lot.

Yeah. They I think they he also noted like there was a game maybe last year where a team was jumping off sides over and over for a Field goal try yeah, so they could just give you the points which I had no idea That's kind of it's kind of crazy the ref could just say that I kind of wish they had just ruled it a touchdown Because if they had ruled it a touchdown that I could be like the fucking refs gave you guys six points stay woke Stay woke they obviously Stay woke they obviously

Basically educated America on the probably unfair act rule right before they use it for the chiefs in the Super Bowl Yeah, good call. I mean that's they're gonna use it for the chiefs and we're all gonna be like wait Oh, yeah, that is a rule. It's been around since 1942. Yeah, you're gonna look at the guy That's next to you at the Super Bowl party that doesn't know the palpably unfair rule. That's that's a rule I wish I could hear John Madden pronounce. Yeah, that would be great. Uh, I, it's an act. It's not even a rule. It's an act. It's a palpably unfair act. That was what Frankie Lou who was doing. I would also like to announce that this game, I will not allow it to turn me into an anti-tush push guy. Okay. Because the Tush, the Tush push, it's a play. It's a football play. If you want to to stop it then stop it. Don't stop it by taking out

You can run it too. Yeah, like anybody can do it I saw a lot of people that were pissed off about the tush push We didn't lose the game because the tush push we didn't lose the game because of the referees We lost the game because Philadelphia played very very good on defense and they played excellently on office Yeah hurts had an incredible game today and that throw to AJ Brown that kind of felt like it it stopped whatever momentum that we had. Yeah. It was a perfect throw. It was a perfect throw. And yeah, Vic Fangio is an incredible defensive coordinator. It was very clear from the jump that their entire game plan was, let's just take away. We're going to take away Jayden

Daniels first read and make him go through his progressions, which he's able to do obviously, but you could see the explosiveness wasn't there for the Washington offense because it was a lot of shorter passes that you had to go 14 play drive to get three and Vic Fangio is just, I mean he's a great defensive coordinator and dialing up blitzes when he had to, they were able to keep, they played really sound defense

in keeping Jayden Daniels in the pocket as well. It didn't feel like he had a couple of those big runs. I, there was one that I can really think of, but for the most part, they did a really good job of making sure that he wasn't able to just completely gash him with his legs. Yeah, they did a very good job and congrats Max. Congrats Hank. Hank, how do you feel? Your birds are going to the Superbowl. You, you actually, I think we're the closest to having the correct score. Yeah, it is a blowout. There's gonna be a blow

It was a blowout. I Feel good. I don't feel as good after the Chiefs win. I kind of just stuck in between a rock and a hard place, but You know If it wasn't for the fumbles that could have been a closer game I don't think the commanders played as badly as as your you're kind of saying Pft, but the fumbles made it impossible to win. No our our energy to their office Their defense played off. Yeah, I mean they're the yeah the first seven rushing touchdowns is It's pretty hard to come come back and a lot of bad penalties that gave them the ball and in scoring position So it was yeah, the defense played very poor. I don't think the offense played bad at all

Yeah, I give the offense a B grade the Eagles went 230 passing 229 rushing I mean and that's that's as that's as like sound of a game as you can possibly have 459 total yards and it did feel like whenever they had the ball they were just gonna go right down the field Max I have some things to say about Nick Sirianni. Would you like to hear them? I would love to hear them. Okay. So Nick Sirianni, uh, as a head coach, this is his fourth season. He's the first head coach to win the NFC two out of his first four years in the

last 40 years. No other coach has done that. He's 48 and 20, uh, all time, which is the highest winning percentage of any active head coach. 706 winning percentage. He's five and three in the playoffs. He's made the playoffs all four years. People obviously be like, well, he's had a super team. I mean, the first year they were nine and eight. They weren't a super team.

Like he went to the Super Bowl his second year. Last year, it felt like everything was kind of falling apart at the end of the season comes into this year since September They have not lost the game that Jalen Hartz Jalen hurt started and finished and was healthy since September 29th So that's a long ass time. I think that was week four against the Bucs and he's done all of this while being like Maybe having like a mental issue and very Italian. No mental issue. That wasn't unnecessary. He's a little crazy. You tried to run him out of town last year. Yeah. You're talking. He's a little emotionally unstable. I'm saying this is all credit to him.

Like he's and he's coaching Italian coaching Italian. That's a hard thing to do. Coach. You're fiery guy. No. Yeah. That's a positive coaching. Italian is a good thing. You coach. But it can also be a negative sometimes. Vince Lombardi. Yeah. No. Yeah, that's a positive coaching. Italian is a good thing. You coach. But it can also be a negative sometimes Vince Lombardi. Yeah, true. Ever heard of them coaching Italian is hard to do. You're thinking of other Italians. Steve Spagnolo. Yeah. Great head coach. Great head coach. Great coordinator. I would say coaching Italian is difficult. It's credits of Sirianni. Yep. He's coaching very Italian. Yeah, no, he's good. He's great. All right. So yeah, Sirianni is, is, has proven that he's one of the best coaches in the NFL. Uh, it is crazy that I think at the beginning of this season he was on a hot seat. Uh, But with the way last year ended, it's not like there's still some context,

but he completely rebounded off off of the debacle of the end of last season. This team is really fucking good. And like I said, they haven't lost a game with Jalen hurts healthy since September 29th, and they're going to another Super Bowl two out of his first four years as a head coach. He's an awesome, awesome head coach and he deserves a lot of credit and Jalen Hurts deserves a lot of credit too because he has had games where it hasn't looked pretty. This is another big game where he came up big

and he was awesome today with his legs and I mean he's injured and he was throwing the ball well and if you're going to say like Jalen Hurts isn't a good QB, then you should have to give more credit to Nick Sirianni, right? You can't have it both ways. I'm talking about the haters. The haters can say any, yeah, the haters can't say anything, but I'm just pointing out that like if your argument is Jalen Hurts is not, is like not great. It's like, well, then Nick Sirianni is the best coach ever.

Or Jalen Hurts is really good. And Nick Sirianni is also really good, which is what I believe. No I mean Jalen hurts that I I knew he was going to have a good game today. He always does. Are you mad about that. Yeah he's angry at the haters. I am angry at the haters. I have a list of the haters. Oh yeah. I told you make make sure you compile a list. You know we should do at the super we should make Max available for media interviews. Yeah. Like if if other if other shows want to yeah max. Yes We'll screen them. Yep, but we'll I won't do a good job. He can go on any show. Yep I won't do a good job with that those okay. I want you going up and down radio. Yeah, put them on radio row

Yeah, I don't take on how to do it. I have six people on my bad list and then two people are on on a good list Oh, I do have to Hank Hank Hanks looking and why are you doing the food on he wants to be on the good list? Yeah, you Hank him Hank can be on the good list. So that's three people. I'll add Hank to the good list Okay, I also don't have There's no references here. It was just I was I was throughout the week Going through Twitter and like watching different things and then just putting people on name on the list. I don't remember what any of them said.

Okay. Okay. So don't ask, don't ask me that. Yeah, that's fair. Um, bad list. Mike Greenberg. What'd he say? Don't know.

Chris Sims. Chris Simms said a lot of shit. Okay. Chase Daniel. Okay. Co-host of Diana Rossini, I think. Right? Yep. Yes. That's the name of the Daniel. Okay. Co-host of Diana Rossini, I think. Right. Yep. Yes. That's the name of the podcast. Yes. It's called Diana Rossini. No, it's actually just called

cohost of Diana Rossini. Um, Alex Smith, Kurt, Ben Kurt. Okay. And Nick Wright. Okay. All bad. All bad. Good. Dan Orlovsky. Yeah. He told everyone there are pieces of shit for saying that Jalen Hurts stinks. And he said that he didn't say shit though. He said piece pieces of turd. I don't think. Yeah. He basically just said that dude is good. Yeah. And Craig Carton Craig Carton also was was backing up the Eagles. So those are my two good guy lists and my six bad guy list. I don't know any of the context for any of these people but that I get it. I get it. They probably said something like I don't know if Jalen hurts has what it takes to win this football game Yeah, no bad. There's a lot of Jalen hurts is not a Super Bowl winning quarterback, which really pissed me off

Well, he's not not yet. Well, he got let out today. He said Sirianni finally let me out. Yeah, let him off the leash Well, yeah, I mean he was last week last week was snow game It's hard for any quarterback to be good in the snow game and he was hurt and now he's he's got a little Confidence we're going back to the Super Bowl. He had he had his best game of his career against Patrick Holmes in the Super Bowl He's got to do it again. Okay, so talk to us about the game. I mean that you You almost passed out watching this game. Yeah, that was bad That was that was like this a big wake-up moment in that game The positive pass up some people are saying that that what exactly you don't pass out play

Uh, it was the fumble on the kickoff. He got up too fast and uh, I got And screamed and then spit on pft and then held his head because he was like, oh my god I almost passed out some people are saying you don't go all the way because like They're the eagles players are out there blood and guts, puking, just trying their hardest and you're worried about passing out. I was very close to passing out. You should have just passed out. I was very close to passing out.

They brought me into the dog and made it seamless Got me out to in and out the door really quickly and you know Also, I just want to say pause does do screening so you like they did screen max before I know that people are gonna be like what kind of operation is pause if they're letting max walk out with the dog They called me and they asked for like they basically talked me for 30 minutes about the history of Max. Yeah. Well, I mean, you look at the Philadelphia Eagles jersey. You

think Michael Vick, not sure if this guy needs a dog right now. But yeah, so they vetted him and I had to I think I had to sign I designed something on your back. This is this is all this is all I it's very cute dog. Yes, it's a cute dog. Max, great dog owner. I'm excited going into it going into the game, PFT, PFT had a better hype video

and Max was like I haven't slept. I've had a bad weekend cause of this dog. I was worried on- That's not sure I had a good weekend cause of the dog but I had a- But you said like I haven't slept, my sleep schedule is fucked and this dog is ruined like- The reason I haven't slept is the dart stream.

And the dog. Noah, were you nervous about getting a dog named Nola right before? I was very nervous about that. What is the dog? So the dog's name is not Nola anymore? The dog's name is Billy. Oh, like football.

Yeah, kind of like football. Nope, she's a good dog. We went through. We've been looking at Paul's for me and my girlfriend. I've been looking at Paul's for a really long time. And we finally found a dog that we were not, not finally, but we found a dog that we were really excited about and we jumped on it. And it happened to be that her name was Nola. You jumped on the dog.

We jumped on the opportunity to get the dog. It would have been so good though. If you had lost this game and your dog's name, you know, I would have just called that dog Nola Yeah for forever, but you didn't if you win the Super Bowl, I think it's gotta go back to know Yeah, we can't keep going back if I thought about it, but we can't keep going back and forth All right. So back to the game. Congrats on the dog. Very cute dog Also, everyone go get a dog from pause Chicago any Chicago dog trainers out there hit me up. I gotta train this dog Everyone go get a dog from Paws, Chicago. Any Chicago dog trainers out there, hit me up.

I gotta train this dog. Okay. Okay. Congratulations, Max. The game, Max? Yeah, no, the game was great. There's not really much more I can say. Jalen Hurst was fantastic.

Shaquan Barkley is the best player in the NFL, and I think that he's gonna change the running back market because it shows that we're going back into a play of game where running the football matters and you can win running because there was that stat that was going on for forever that actually you still don't know that we still don't know that stat well yeah because you didn't win the Super Bowl yet I know but Saquon Barkley is a piece that this team this team is not where they are right now without Saquon Barkley. Okay, Max, I fully acknowledge that Saquon Barkley is probably the best running back in the NFL.

Him and Derrick Henry, I would say Saquon's probably a little bit better. I'm pissed off at the Giants, the Giants for letting you guys have him. That sucks for me. But when you say he's going to change the way that we look at running backs and signing running backs, the free agents this off season, Aaron Jones, pretty good player, Najee Harris, Jeff Wilson, AJ Dillon, Nick Chubb off an injury. I don't know if any of those guys are worth it.

I'm not gonna say immediately, but going forward, if Bijan, like Saquon Barkley is getting paid less than Gabe Davis. Yeah, no, I mean Saquon Barkley, but he doesn't grow on trees. But I'm saying Bijan's next contract. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like he's going to get more than the top running back

was getting this past off season. And it's also like the Eagles played it perfectly because I still don't think that you should pay a running back a ton of money if you're not a team ready to compete for a Super Bowl. The Eagles were a loaded roster and adding Saquon Barkley just makes them that much better. Whereas like if you added Saquon Barkley to the Giants, the Giants aren't going to the playoffs. True. So it's more like teams that are on the precipice, like

that's a perfect, perfect signing, but he's a beast. The Eagles are just really fucking good and they were, we said it on Friday Friday like they're better At pretty much every position than the commanders and that that showed today like their their defensive line got a great push their offensive line Even though there's injuries was was very good kept Jalen hurts relatively clean AJ Brown and Devante Smith are still difference makers Dallas got her One of the most underrated tight ends. He needs more credit got her it's a beast he was an absolute monster and he actually don't the the the biggest one of the biggest plays in the first half that felt like a pretty consequential play was when they didn't have Dallas got her on the field and Calcutta wasn't able to pick up the blitz and they got a huge

the commanders got a huge sack and that was like the moment where it's like oh shit are the commanders gonna be back in this game but yeah the Eagles are just an all-around really really good team speaking of huge sacks that was a great fake punt that Dan Quinn called oh yeah it was awesome and when I said that we have a better punter Tress way can also throw the ball yeah that was but that was also one of those you're down what 14 to 3 at the time I think yeah. Yeah. It's like you got to you got to try something. You got to you got to put your nuts on the table. And it was it was a great play, but it never felt sustainable what the commanders were doing.

Yeah, it just didn't. We got behind and we kind of stayed behind. Great touchdown catch and run by Terry McLaurin. I'm so glad he's a commander. I'm so glad I get to root for guys like Terry and guys like Jaden. But still, I don't want to I don't want to think big picture. A lot of people are going to be sending me big picture wishes. I appreciate the wishes, but I don't want to think about the big picture right now. Just let me be very sad and upset in this small little microscope. I'm looking at the season with an electron microscope right now. Play by play for today.

I think that's the correct way to do it. Big picture is an off season thing. That's an off season thought exercise that you'll be able to do for the next seven months. Right now you got your ass kicked in the NFC championship game. That sucked. I promise you I will be moved on to big picture by next week. This maybe not. No, I'm going to make no way when we're after the Super Bowl.

Yeah. When we're in New Orleans and Max is like living his best life and wearing ridiculous pants. I'm gonna gumbo my way out of it. I'm gonna gumbo my way out of thinking small picture. I believe in you, I believe in you. Max, yeah, that had to be been

like one of the most enjoyable games though for you. Yeah, no, it was great. It still was stressful. I was saying stupid shit at the end of the max said when the Eagles were up I believe they were up 25 with six minutes left max said this is still gonna end up being ending one score game Yeah, and we had to explain to him. We're like there's six minutes left The best gate like if they score 17 points are down eight and they that would mean they had three possessions in the last six minutes Well, we work at a company where it's like you you realize that you have to go out of your way not to say anything

That could be ever interpreted as a jinx So if you're up, you don't say things like great win before the game's over You don't count your chickens and that was White Sox Dave by the way. Yeah, nice job No, he said I'll never apologize for I'll never apologize for a win Yeah Dave by the way. Yeah. Nice job. No, he said I'll never apologize for, I'll never apologize for a win. Yeah. So Mac, but Max has learned to not touch these third rails cause he's gotten shocked so many times that now he's just, he's not even going down to the subway station. I still graze those rails. Yeah. I mean, he said we, we want the commies before he even played the Rams. That's true. But in his defense, he was drunk. Yeah. He was, it was a Saturday night. Uh, Max also shout

out Rome. Big, he surprised everyone. He texted me yesterday. He's like, I'm going to be there. Don't tell anyone. He walked in. I, you could tell that it was, that was tough for you. It was tough. And hey, I got to put my hand up.

He's a weapon. I put my hand up too and say, like, I didn't show enough fight either. I don't know. I got to learn how to win. Yeah. It's a process. It was, it was a ass kicking though, Max I don't know, I got to learn how to win. Yeah, it's a process. It was, it was a ass kicking though, Max, you gotta you gotta feel good. And you're going back to the Super Bowl. You got to

get redemption against the Kansas City Chiefs and not to put pressure on you, Max. But do you have you had the moment to realize like what what's at stake here in terms of you in this podcast and like if we have to have another Losing Max second place situation, like that's gonna be bad. I mean that's, you would love that. No I don't want that. I have a future on the Eagles.

But as far as for this podcast, you would love to see me lose. Just in terms of numbers, I think people want to see Sad max in the pants. Yeah, I'm not saying me. They've seen it. Oh, but it's chiefs I know it was the bills. It would be a whole Cashed out and I would have been Josh Allen in your face the whole time. Let's mix it up Let's get some happy max celebratory. Oh, you don't have anything some happy max celebratory oh you don't have anything financially no stake here do you or legacy stake no legacy I'm thinking about the fans and what they want big legacy state I want to see Max when I don't like that memes has weaponized the max picture and even when Max wins he just puts somebody else's

face on Max yeah and then it's also a reminder of that time that Max lost I don't think that's fair to man they put your face that was you bro I don't think that's fair to Max it was you it was me it was my face you'll do with a beer it's just a great yeah oh you have to get wax now too I didn't I forgot about the wax too shit I'll get wax and Nola howA. How about that? Yeah, that'll be tough. Max, have you texted Big Dom yet? No. I texted him on your behalf. No, already? Yeah. I said, no, I didn't say anything about the, I just said congrats to you and NOLA with the eagle emoji and the Italian flag. And he just wrote back, thanks Paisan. See you there Italian flag. He thinks I'm Italian which is fine

Italian father yeah, tell your father max. This is the fifth time in Super Bowl history We're gonna have a rematch of coaches in the big game The losing coach has lost all four of the rematches You were telling me stats last week though. I'm just telling you. So it's Chuck Noel over Tom Landry, Jimmy Johnson over Marv Levy, Coughlin over Bill Belichick, and Andy Reid over Shanahan.

And this will be Andy Reid versus Nick Sirianni too. So each time the winning coach the first time won the second time is watching. Eagles win rematches. Oh Yeah, there you go. Yeah, that's your go-killers. Yep. She's also win rematches Shit do they well they yeah, we feel they won the stat before well They win the re they reap they win the first one too and then they win Rematch yeah, they somehow win everything. Yeah, I guess that's also a rematch. Yeah. They somehow win everything.

Yeah, cheese like to win. Yeah. Alright, so anything else Max? Like, New Orleans, it's gonna be your week. I know, I'm so excited. It's gonna be like the best week of my life. Cool. That's awesome. That's fucking cool. If they win.

That is so, so fucking sweet. But what about the week before? like what about preceding that? We're probably gonna get to interview an eagle. Hopefully. Yeah, that'll be maybe even take time Maybe big Dom of I don't know one out big Dom I don't want to interview big Dom Super Bowl week cuz he I didn't want to ask because He's gonna be like it's about the players the people want big dumb. We're gonna interview big Dom grit week Maybe we're gonna interview him. Great. Let's not. Well, that's not big Dom. You know, he'll big Dom does what big don't want. We love big Dom. We're not going to

put it. We're not going to pressure. I don't know. I wouldn't feel comfortable. No, but we're going to try to get an eagle. What if his daughter's getting married like during the week and we can go to him, we can ask him whatever favor we want he has to say yes that's true I don't know I'm just excited for the week I want the Eagles will the pants be making a can we get the pants back no I'm wearing the same thing that I've worn the past two games we get all what PFT did when he changed up his outfit I wore two different outfits for each of our playoff games I didn't have an outfit to repeat. You got, you got bullied online for the, for the jumpsuit. And you got scared.

You got scared to wear it again. You think, you think I'm afraid to wear something that makes me look ridiculous? You showed up in jeans today. Yeah, it's a, they're pants, they're mugsies. They're super comfortable pants. They feel like sweatpants. They're the most comfortable pants in the world. You idiot.

But you, that you don't, you're not a jeans guy for a big game. You're a where crazy jumpsuit guy I that's last week I wear jeans for games all the time my most famous pictures at games are of me wearing jeans like the big jeans What's jeans clutch jeans you could I show that's fair. I should have worn the jinkos I should have worn the jinkos today. We have we have Muggsy jank fair. I should have worn the jinkos. I should have worn the jinkos today We have we have mugs II jankos. I should have worn them That's a fair point. But to say that the jumpsuit I didn't have like an outfit that I wore a good luck outfit And you and you shaved your beard but max had a good luck outfit I didn't shape like where he is. I got I got a haircut

Everyone knows playoff time playoff max wants us to mention the fact that he's been growing Out his beard No, I didn't realize I don't even want you to realize it I just want you to know that I am I'm dialed on winning a Super Bowl I need to win it. He also he's out of the boot and he wore the boot. Yeah Yeah, no, I had I'm bringing the boot I'm bringing the boot to nor you're bringing the boot to the boot Yeah, no, I had I'm bringing the boot. I'm bringing the boot to norland you're bringing the boot to the boot I'm bringing the boot to the boot. I have to wear you have I have to wear the boot inside inside the Caesars Caesar Superdome Well, okay

Did Nick say? That's a problem if the I will do a shoeie out of the boot I love that Nick say that'll be so gross. Oh, I love it. They say that every Tuesday is Mardi Gras for Max Yeah, he did. Yeah, I thought I heard that another another thing Nick wrote down. Yeah, I didn't say oh cuz I'm fat Say no no, I know you spoke French Hey, so Max you're good. Can we get the pants during the week? I Don't know exactly where those pants are right now. Oh no.

I love that. I think they're here. They might be. I gave them the hang for this Halloween costume and then I think he gave them back to me. We gotta find them. We gotta find them. People wanna see the pants.

We gotta find the pants. To me, losing pants is one of the funniest things you can do. Yeah. I lost those particular pants. I lose all of my clothing. My clothing has like a one year lifespan until it gets lost. Max, I have a question for you. Honest question. So after the game,

Nick Sirianni called Jalen hurts a winner. He's a winner. Do you think that Jalen hurts is a winner? Good question. His head's just about to implode. Oh no. Look at that. Oh, he can't get out of this. Max is getting a fever. He can't get out of this.

He might just pass out. He can't get out of this. This question's gonna make you tap. Is he a winner? Yes. He is a winner. Yes. Has he won a Super Bowl?

He's in the Super Bowl. Okay. Hank, Hank, I'm calling in the lefty. Every winner that's ever considered? He's in the Super Bowl. Okay. Hank, Hank, I'm calling in the lefty. Every winner that's ever considered a winner has also lost Super Bowls. Joe Montana? Most of the winners that you could ever consider has lost Super Bowl.

Okay. I'm going through the list of winners. A lot of losses in the Super Bowl. My whole thing I just wanted Nick Sirianni to also be listed as a winner when he's not Terry Bradshaw Terry Bradshaw lose. I don't think I don't think he did But they lost games. They lost big games. Okay, we're not talking about big games We're talking about when you said because that's the standard that we have on this

I mean is Terry Bradshaw the goat is he like me the goat He beat the we're not talking about Jill and hers is a goat. We're just asking if he's a winner or not Yeah, he's a winner He doesn't want the big one yet, okay, so you can be a winner without where you went Yeah, but max said Dan Campbell's not a winner he won a national championship. Yep, Dan Marino to winner No, but he was on team. He won he played played in the a national championship yep Dan Marino to winner no but he was on team he won he played played in the game is Dan Marino winner nah okay he only made it once Dan Marino is not a winner that was it phone not a fart so if you make it twice then you're winner

farkey I mean make it twice at the age that he's at. I would classify him as winner and winning a national championship. Is Josh Allen a winner? Josh Allen is a winner. Okay. Lamar Jackson? He has, Josh Allen has overperformed in the playoffs. Lamar Jackson has underperformed. Okay.

But if Lamar wins a second MVP, Phil Rivers, third, third MVP, Phil Rivers. Nope. Not a winner. No. Okay. Okay. Joel Embiid. Absolutely not. How can you say that with the Philly shirt on? He hasn't made it to the past. You see Paul George got stuck in the, in the broad street the Broad Street, like trying to drive down Broad Street.

And it was just like a party. In the middle of the game, like after the game. I saw the funniest video afterwards. There was this one kid from Philadelphia, when I say kid, I mean, I think he was three years old. Yeah, he looked very young. That went up to the light pole and started trying to climb the light pole.

And then a cop came up to him, fake arrested him, like put his hand behind his back. The kid, the kid wiggled out of the fake arrest and ran right back over the light pole and then a cop came up to him fake arrested him like put his hand behind his back. The kid, the kid wiggled out of the fake arrest and ran right back over the light pole and started to get ready to climb it again. I love it. Yeah. The, the Philly, uh, fan too that was walking around with the, uh, roasting a pig with a shopping cart. That was genius. Real men of genius. Listen, we got to learn how to win like that. Yeah.

Philly was on fire today. It was, it looked like a very fun day in Philadelphia. Well, I'm not thinking big picture. I Do have to acknowledge that this was an awesome season It was beyond anyone's well-dressed wildest expectations for the team Hank laughed when we hired Dan Quinn The tweet was ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha which I bookmarked we got into a big bookmark off I want to bring that back up. Left hand up all on that. So he's sorry about your future by the way, on the commander. Yeah, yes. It's heartbreaking stuff, but it was a great season. We're I'm not thinking big picture yet, but I, I am saying I'm willing to acknowledge the fact that being in this game and the

NFC championship game is a feeling that I haven't felt in a very long time. And it was awesome to, to care this deeply about football this late into the season. And cherry on top, we actually, I think, posed this question last week. Uh, does Dan Snyder watch the story came out, which was like pretty much just porn for you. Oh yeah. The Dan Snyder not only like is aware of the commanders, he's living in England and he's fucking pissed off and so angry about

all of it. Yeah, it was so good. It came out like first thing in the morning on Saturday, I laid in bed reading the story just laughing out loud. He's really fucking pissed. Good. I'm glad you're pissed. I hope you watch every second.

I hope that your life is just tormented from this point forward. I was very happy reading that, but the details in that story were crazy. Yeah. Like after I'd probably celebrated six times the sale of the team, when it came time to send the financial information, all he had to do was send Josh Harris his routing bank account, his bank account number. And at the very last second, Dan Snyder was like, no, I don't think I'm going to send him my bank account number so that he can't pay me $6 billion. And, and the best part was Goodell got Dan Snyder on the way out because Dan Snyder basically was like, I'm only selling this. I don't want to sell this team. I'll sell, I'm going to make the price

so ridiculous that like no one's going to be able to pay for it. He wanted over $6 billion. Josh Harris was barely able to get the $6 billion. And then as he's like about to wire the $6 billion, the NFL find him $65 million that took the actual like full transaction just below $6 billion. Yeah. That's, you know what? We said that at the time too. We said that feels like an oddly specific number. It was like $50.5 million fine on the way out. Good. I'm glad. I'm glad that he's not happy. So funny.

I take, I take pity on whatever EPL team you ran them out of the country. He literally doesn't live in the country anymore. I can't sell his house. He had to give that away. Yeah. Uh, which, I mean, I guess that was a nice move by him because he did give it to like the cancer society, but he also gave his attacks right off too, but he gave it to them and it still hasn't sold Yeah, yeah, and now they have to pay for the upkeep of that house and they're like, can we just sell this fucking thing already? Yeah, and he yeah, he's he's basically been run away. He lives in England and they even threw in like oh no, well He actually loves it there and he like goes to a pub and like yeah He's he's having a great time like a normal guy's life. I kind of I want to do and he like goes to a pub and like yeah he's having a great time like a normal guy. He's living his best life. I kind of I want to do... and he doesn't drink I don't think. I want to

go over there. Imagine living in London and not drinking? He's got a drink if he's going to a Westminster pub. There was that there was that anecdote too where he was like at one point they were trying to say that he was basically gonna get out of all the shit he did bad by being like, I used to drink and I did that all when I was drinking and now I don't drink anymore. Like I went, I checked myself into rehab, excuse. Well his plan was, I'm gonna tell them that I stopped drinking. Which is, that's what you say when you are really admitting

that you have a problem. I'm gonna make them think I don't drink anymore. But yeah. I'm gonna become a born again. Yeah, but that's, I was very happy to read that. That was great. It was fun to care about football this much until late January, but it still sucks.

Yeah. It still hurts. And congrats to Max. Stressful week, not a stressful game, and you're on to New Orleans. It's still pretty stressful. And so you're gonna, Max is gonna go to the game. He will have a setup so that he can zoom in, win or lose.

We're not gonna stay in New Orleans for those extra days. But Max will go to the games. We'll have on, on field reporting. And he will be on the show, win or lose. Actually when does he have to come on? He could, maybe he could, he could like zoom in from his phone on urban street. No, we'd have to, you, you have to get your victory lap. If you win the soup roll, you have to really stick it to shut up. There was nothing stressful about that game for you. No, there really wasn't. I mean, there was, you scored a,

you scored a 60 yard touchdown on your first carry from scrimmage. Yes. Ake one rocks. The only stressful time was like in the second quarter when it was, I think 1412 and then but then you guys scored and then you got a fumble on the kickoff right after and scored again. The 1412 was the only time I was like oh this could be a game. The fake punt was stressful. You were up 14 to three. But you were up. Yeah but that felt like a game like a momentum changing. But the minute you touched the ball on offense,

you never were trailing. Yeah, no, that's true. That's exactly right. We were trailing for like 16 seconds, I think. Yeah, right, so you, in the 14-12, like that was when it was close, you scored, and then the next time the commanders touched the ball was 27-12.

Yeah, but we were up two scores against them in that other game too. So that's all I get. But you can't pick it. Well, I kept saying that and you kept telling them. Yeah, because I was deluding myself into thinking we had a chance to win. Perfectly normal behavior.

It did matter. I know, but it's still stressful. Like when we went three and out to start the second half, I felt kind of stressed then. I would say like maybe at the start of the game when we kept converting those four downs on that very first drive, that was probably a little bit stressful for you. Yeah, the first drive was stressful. But Max, here's my roadmap that me and a lot of other people had this week to convince

ourselves this was going to be a good football game. The Eagles are so good, they're better at every position. Yeah, but Jaden Daniels might be actual magic. That's what we're telling ourselves and forcing ourselves to believe that Jaden Daniels was literally God and that he could do whatever he wanted and nothing else in the game would matter. That's the level that we had to get to convince ourselves that this was going to be a commander's win. Fred Smoot told me we were going to lose by 50. Do you think Fred Smoot watched that game and was like, what the fuck?

He just like, was he watching that game being like, am I sleeping right now? This can't be happening. I was getting, I loved what Fred Smoot was saying because I liked hearing it. I liked listening to it. But also as he was saying it, I was just thinking the whole time like this is not good This is not good that he's gassing us up so much, but yeah congrats max congrats Hank. Yeah, I'm excited I'm excited for next week. I got a future too on the Eagles. Oh Also buy some merch we got some new merch in the philly store Hank is

Wearing some of it does that make you nervous that it's chiefs eagles again, and I can oh yeah, I can win a shitload of money Oh, yeah, okay a lot of this sounds familiar. Yeah a lot of it sounds very from hit him low hit him high There we go Necessary roughness penalties. Yeah, those are sick Okay, let's take a break and then we will talk a FC championship game We'll get back to the games in a second Okay, let's take a break and then we will talk AFC Championship game.

Okay, Chiefs 32, Bills 29. How do we wanna do this, PFT? Do we wanna just do the ref thing at first, or we wanna talk about the game and then we can give ourselves a minute to talk about the ref thing? I was thinking that we would do 40 minutes on the spot. Yeah, the spot. 40 minutes on the fourth down spot. Um, that game was a great game,

incredible game, like as close as it could be. It felt like to start the game, the bills were going to get boat raced, but they hung tough and uh, you know, let's just say it because everyone's complaining about it. The spot, I did not agree with the spot. I still will, uh, I'll still maintain that the chiefs like, again, we've said it a million times, say it a million times more. Like they have the championship DNA that big time plays, big time moments, they will come through. And if they have a 50, 50 thing go their way, they will capitalize on it. That did suck though

because if the Bills got that first down it felt like they were gonna go down and score and be up 9 and it Was like you won't even give Patrick Mahomes a chance to win this game and I I thought the spot sucked But here's what really sucked about and for anyone who didn't watch the game I'm assume everyone who's listening did it was fourth and one on the Kansas City 41 in the fourth quarter the bills are up 2221 they do Josh Allen sneak and the Far-line judge I believe ruled it pretty much close to a first down the the the closer line judge

Had a completely different interpretation. They went to review. They didn't give them the first down. I thought it was a first down. I thought it was bullshit, but you know what was really bullshit is the fact that Sean McDermott and Joe Brady decided to keep running the same play that the chiefs were clearly ready for all game. And that was the touch push that they didn't even do correctly. They don't even push. They just, they just ram Josh Allen in the line. That was coaching malpractice in my eyes. Like stop running a play that's not working and they kept running it and it burned them on a, on a, on a fourth and one that again, I thought they got it, but it was so close that it leaves it up to the review and that

sucked. And whichever ref got that spot and where they put it down That's what they're gonna stick with right the review didn't show the ball didn't show anything So it's hard to overturn that you can guess where his body was gonna be I thought it was a first down to in the moment But yeah the the bills on just short yardage situations all day Not good not good good And that that's why I despite the fact that that I just got fucked by the tush push, I can say that the people that are calling for it to be removed are losers because the Bills tried

to do the same thing. They can't do it. Everyone can try to do it. The best they looked on that short yardage situation was when Josh had to jump over the pile and extend the ball in a bad play. That probably should have been a fumble. And he, I think he did, he might've dropped the ball and extend the ball in a bad play. That probably should have been a fumble. And he, I think he did, he might've dropped the ball and picked it back up. Big hands.

But it was, it's heartbreaking for Josh Allen. I know there'll be a lot of people who like, he can't win the big one. If you watch that game and you're like, Josh Allen can't win the big one. I mean, they're, they, they, I think that really does come down to Sean McDermott had a really bad game again against the Chiefs, which happens every single year. Their defense got torched. I know that I know Benford went out early with a concussion and their, their secondary was thinned has a little debt wrapped in play in the game.

But the Mahomes in that offense, like they scored more than 30 points the first time all year. Yeah. They had 8.3 yards per play on passing downs. They, it felt like guys were just wide open and the, and, and what really would drive me nuts if I was a Bill's fans outside of the ref stuff, which we've acknowledged is on that last, uh, drive where you have three timeouts, you have two minutes or more than two minutes to try to go down the field and score a touchdown and win the game.

You did not get a single touch for James Cook who was by far your best player on offense. Like James Cook had 139 yards receiving and rushing, two touchdowns, he was averaging 8.6 yards per touch and he did not touch the ball on those six plays that you ran. One was a perfectly timed Steve Spagnola blitz where that's where it's the chiefs. Spags is such a good coach and Andy Reid is such a good coach. They have that blitz that gave Josh no time. He throws up a prayer to Dalton Kincaid who probably could have caught that. And I know people are saying Khalil Shakir was open on the backside. If you watch that play and

you're like how Josh Allen had a guy in his face in less than a half a second. Yeah. He couldn't get the ball. He couldn't get the ball to Shakir on that. It was too much pressure and Spags had, I think I counted three of those blitzes that were perfectly timed out. I don't know how he does it, but it's always perfect. It always causes the most disruption. It always changes the game. And it sucks for Buffalo because yeah, you look like you're driving down the field with a one point lead.

You're about to get that fourth down and everything's gonna be different this time. It sucks. And it's not different. And you just have to deal with the fact that Mahomes is going to the Super Bowl again. Josh Allen and the Bills have to think about this for another year and hope that next time it's going to be different. Every year I tell myself after

this matchup, don't ever forget what happened. This is just always going to keep repeating. And then one calendar year later, I convinced myself the Bills are going to do it. And they are always so close. They're all, I guess it's not as bad as the 13 seconds would happen today. I don't know, man. Today was pretty brutal because like the 13 seconds was, was awful. I, it goes into the whole storyline of the chiefs and the refs and everything. And, and look, I, I get it. Like that, that spot sucked. And, and the Xavier worthy review, where there was a penalty on that place. So obviously it was, it costs them yards, but the chiefs were going to get a first down

anyway. But that one was, was iffy and didn't really make sense to me. I don't know. I just, I'm not going to sit here and be like, the chiefs are only in the super bowl because of the refs. I feel like the bills, like that that play sucked, but the Bills game plan of defensively, they weren't able to guard anyone. And, and, uh, offensively just ramming into Chris Jones and that defensive line on those short yards made no sense. And it was just like, like, I just don't get the James, like James cook that, that touchdown by James cook was one of the coolest touch-ups I've ever seen. Yeah. He was in the matrix. He floated. His body was contorted and he floated into the end zone and that guy didn't get, he, he, he didn't end up getting,

and they also kind of went away from the run in the first half where second half you see them come out, they, they shove it down their throat. And here's another one. I, I, I get it. You can't second guess everything. Sean McDermott taking points off the board. Basically, I mean, that's a 31 31 game if he doesn't take the points off the board. So essentially what happens is they score a touchdown at the end of the first half, the chiefs get a penalty, the the the the bills kick the extra point. So it's 21 17. They there's a penalty. They're like, fuck it. We'll go for two. Now they don't get it. So instead of 21 17 is 21 16. They score touchdown

in the second half because it's because they didn't get it the first time they go for it again. So instead of being it, if you kick both extra points, it's 24 21. And now it's 22 21. instead of being it, if you kick both extra points, it's 24, 21 and now it's 22, 21 do the math. It would have been 31, 31. Not to get all analytical on you, but part of the reason why you go for two is because there is a chance that you miss the extra point. Of course. So if you've already made the extra point, right. Then that's a little bit less of a reason to go for two. Don't take the points off the board. I just feel like, I feel like Sean McDermott just again, Andy Reed just out coached them and uh, like I feel like Sean McDermott just again Andy Reed just out coached him and And I feel bad for Josh like yeah was there especially beginning the game

He was kind of erratic and could he have played better? Yeah, but he also has been asked to play basically perfect to give them a chance and It's yet again where his defense and his coaching just they don't do enough Yeah, it was it was sad for Bill's fans. Sad for America too even though listen I appreciate Patrick Moe's I appreciate the Chiefs I think we respect the Chiefs enough on this show. People will listen and take away you know people can listen to the show and they'll be people like you just glazed Josh Allen or you hate the Chiefs or I I've been saying it for how how many times have I said that the Chiefs the reason why the Chiefs are the Chiefs is not because of the refs

It's because if you make a mistake they take advantage of it and that's what a championship team does Yeah, like I don't know how more clear I can be that the Chiefs have that DNA they every big play They need they were six of ten on third and fourth down Patrick Brahms Used his legs perfectly today scored two touchdowns And then the best was we were having the debate in the cave Patrick Brahomes used his legs perfectly today. He scored two touchdowns. And then the best was we were having the debate in the cave when it was when the Bills. So who went out of bounds?

That was so stupid of them. Was it Pacheco went out of bounds? It stopped the clock with like a minute and a half left. I can't remember who went out of bounds, but it was very low football IQ. It was Pacheco. It was Pacheco. Like that was very un-chiefs like.

So the Bills technically still had a chance. It was third andco. It was Pacheco. Like that was very un-chiefs like. So the Bills technically still had a chance. It was third and nine. And we're sitting there being like, should they kick the field goal? What should they do? And then I just stopped. I was like, what are we talking about right now? They're gonna get the first down.

And that's what they did. They have a play that gets them a first down when they need to get a first down and ends the game. Yeah, and when Mahomes was running with the ball, he was also tough as fuck today. Yeah. He was putting his head down. He's trying to run through people. He did not do the tiptoe on the sideline stuff.

He didn't do any of the things that he's been criticized for. He played an awesome game of football. Andy Reed coached another great game of football. The Chiefs look like they they might be unstoppable again. And now we've got a rematch the Chiefs and the Eagles. Max, who do you think that Jason Kelsey is gonna be rooting for? I don't know.

I am terrified of that. I think he's gonna do like a house divided jersey. He's gonna wear both? You can't do a house divided. You just gotta sit it out. No, he'll be there. No, no, but I'm saying you can't like you can't wear a logo Maybe the only thing that the only thing that makes me

He should be rooting for the Eagles. He should be ready. He should be yeah I was just one one I he should be but I don't know if he were in the end and that same team beat the fucking Eagles I know but like it's He should be rooting for the Eagles. I agree. Will you think less of him if he doesn't? He was in the locker room. He felt the pain after they lost to that team. It's all his boys.

And it's all those same boys have a chance to get revenge against the Chiefs. Also, just for like the storyline, he should be rooting, like if, not to give him podcast advice, but like. Yeah. You root for the Eagles, dude. Yeah.

Yeah, I don't know. Like I don't know what he ended up doing today. He was at the Eagles tailgate, but he said on like his show on Friday night that he was going to try and get to the chief's game. He was trying to go to both games somehow. I think that's not possible. He second half. Yeah, no, that's what I'm saying. Like I don't know what he ended up doing, but he was at the Eagles tailgate for like ESPN Game, I forgot. I don't know what they do. They're they're pregame for the NFL And then he was like I really want to get to the get to Kansas City though for Travis's game

I think Travis is going to retire after this year I think the way I the way he talked about that made me made me think that he's gonna by the way If they win he he will but I the way I the way the way talked about that made me made me think that he's gonna by the way If they win he he will but by the way more so to the chiefs like her greatness Patrick Holmes Travis Kelsey was taken away in this game The Bills did a good job of taking him away and they're like we're not gonna let him beat us and then Pat from home's just Hollywood Browns aviour worthy Deandre Hopkins. He found other ways with his feet. He found other ways to beat them. I got a couple crazy Patrick Mahomes stats for you. So this is from Josh Duboe AP. Patrick Mahomes has trailed in fourth quarters in nine playoff games. He has come back to win six and forced OT and two others before losing. He has a 132.2 rating with five touchdown passes, one TD run, went down one to eight points

in the fourth quarter OT of playoff games, leading scores on 13 of 14 drives. That's as money as you get. That's Patrick Mahomes being incredible, the best quarterback in football. That's not refs. I know that people will say it's refs. That's not refs. I know that people will say it's refs. That's not refs. What about the blended clock? That's not a trend that we learned about. That was bullshit too. That was bullshit. We learned, yeah, that the blended clock, like,

who's that painter? Salvador Dali? The guy that painted, yeah. The melting clocks? Yeah. So the blended clock is just when the refs say, we're going to combine the play clock with the clock before the two-minute warning He was explaining it was like a half of when it's half a second off You can just You can just run it down, but then I see the zero Yeah, no one and I don't see the zeros on the other makes no sense Also Patrick Mahomes has been a starter in the NFL for seven years

He has gone to five Super Bowls and his worst season is a loss in the AFC Championship game twice. Yeah, that's insane That's insane. He's great. I again I Thought that was a first down I really did and I I'm so like gutted for Josh Allen in the bills because like I do think that if they get that first down Now who am I kidding that she's probably find a way to win the game anyway. If they win that, if they get that first down, they win the Superbowl. But it's just, it's, it sucks being a Bills fan is torture. I like they, they, they, they go through torture.

I don't know what else to say. Like this is, it's, it's so brutal. And, and I really do. You said it a week or two ago, PFD, like if they lose in the playoffs, is there a chance Sean McDermott's on the hot seat? Now I think Sean McDermott is a really good coach, but kind of like Andy Reid in Philadelphia, like is there a chance that they've hit the wall and to get through the wall, they need something different. Yeah, but then you got to make sure that whatever he put in place pre-wall stays up Yeah, because the Bills they were a bad team before Sean McDermott. I know and then Josh Allen

So I yeah, I don't think you fire him but I just it did feel like this game was a another winnable Bills game that coaching and defense Like it hurt them and and Josh could have been better Like, it hurt them. And Josh could have been better. He was a little erratic at times, but he also made some fucking huge, that Matt Collins touchdown was a huge throw. And you know, they obviously were going to try to run the ball and they did a really

good job of that. And they just couldn't get stops. I mean, the Chiefs didn't score 30 points all season. They did today. Do you think that Rex Ryan is going to publicly lobby for the Bills job now? Probably. Like it's coming home Probably I what do we say to the people who are now saying they're not gonna watch the Super Bowl Who's saying that a lot of people online saying it's rigged

They're not gonna watch the Super Bowl if it's rigged if you truly believe it's rigged Then why don't you just make a fuckload of money betting on the Chiefs great question? That's me personally that's what I would time. Yeah, something is rigged. Yeah, just clean up I also think people just don't like the matchup. Yeah, no, they don't like the matchup, but it's still the Super Bowl I don't care. It's super. Yeah, you're gonna watch football game of the year. You're gonna watch Super Bowl You gotta watch the Super Bowl. You don't watch Super Bowl. You're just not American Hank Why did you make a disgusted face when you said he's probably gonna propose? I Was just thinking he wouldn't actually after I said it I realized Taylor would never allow it to happen

But I was thinking of like confetti Yeah, like Boise State player when the Super Bowl Propose and you think you think he could do better is what you're saying No, I just that that that thought of all that scene disgusted me But I don't think I think they would do it in a little more classy way I think she but I think he will retire and he will propose in the offseason. I think she's gonna propose to him Mm-hmm What if we just win we're not going

Meem just said you're cooked. Yeah, it's gonna be the refs or it's gonna be patch for Holmes? No, I don't know We just gotta win the screenshot of the first down is going to be though It's also brutal that as you know good of a blitz as it was and it was a very like tough throw for Josh It was an extremely catchable ball. Oh like Dalton Kinkade It's not like he had not he just had to throw it away or threw it up, it was an extremely catchable ball. Like Dalton Kincaid. It's not like he had not, he just had to throw it away or threw it up and it was nowhere. It was extremely, extremely catchable. All time play that went down in the history books. But again, I still, I don't know how

the, the bills would have gotten any stops. I guess they'd have to score a touchdown there and then maybe the game would have been over, but it didn't feel like the bills were ever going to, like if it went to overtime, did you think the bills were going to get a stop then? It would have been poetic cause of, yeah, I know, but they couldn't get, they couldn't get off the field. That's why that, that first down, that fourth down was so big because they could have made it a two score game. I know. And then your D has some room where they can, you know, they can let Patrick Mahomes do his

thing and it doesn't kill you. I know it sucks. We're going to know everything. We're going to know everything there is to know about the ref that called that ball short and whatever connections he has to Kansas city or Texas tech or Andy Reed. I really thought it was the first down. I really did. And I thought that one, that one ref like basically came out and did that but it's just again, it's more like I Understand all Bill's fans should be mad at the refs and they should complain about the refs and they have every right to be mad at the refs and and talk about it at nauseam about the refs. I'm

Removed a little from it that I can be like, maybe just don't run the same play that was getting nothing over and over. Yeah. You weren't even running the tush push correctly. You weren't pushing. I agree. I thought he got the first down as well. And it was clear the Chiefs had figured it out.

Like the Chiefs were defending against it so well. Yep. I thought they got it, but I didn't think that there was anything on the replay that was like definitive enough for them to say, we're going to overrule what we just went over ref said on the field. And that's that then the chiefs are just really fucking good. And that's what they do. They capitalize on everything. And my homes makes big plays. And you're right about my homes running like tough. He wasn't doing any of the not trying to get hit late or trying to

dance around the sideline he was just you could tell like he was jacked up on some of those runs one thing you can say negatively about my home city is he had the worst spike in the history of football that's true after the touch that's a fact he was too jacked up he couldn't spike it properly that's a fact um all right anything anything else on this game i mean i just feel really bad for for bills fans and I just feel really bad for Josh. I want I It just sucks and it's people will people will be like hey Josh Allen sucks like no, he just keeps running up against my homes and Like he he's playing to a level that should win games I just think the the bills keep kind of getting out coached in these games

Yeah like there's The the margin for errors so small in these games and Shawn McDermott makes a couple of these errors Chasing points early running the same play that's not working over and over challenging that one catch Yeah, like there's just these these moments where it's like if you just can do a better job or like, you know Knowing that spags is gonna do something crazy on that last We're using a timeout and talking to in like figuring out your best play cuz you had three timeouts there I know you wanted to save him in case you didn't get that first down

But also the play calling on that drive made no sense again James Cook like They just you can't make any mistakes against a team like the Chiefs. They're so fucking good They're so well coached Patrick Holmes is just he's money in the playoffs That's what he does chiefs are just a wagon and they're going for history first three Pete ever which would be insane Yeah, they're gonna get it Congrats Max you stand in the way. I Know we have to we got to take him down We got to take him down for for Hank's legacy really and you've also for your for your legacy too max because now It could change. It could change. Well, how many, how many of these big games has Hank lost? He wasn't

Philly Hank until recently. I only lost to the Eagles. No, I mean, but this just tears down everything the Patriots built. It's but not if the homes keeps winning. But I mean mean a three Pete is three Pete is a three Pete is the best team in history of the NFL But it's no teams ever done three Pete a three Pete would be tough against the Eagles too because two of those would be against You yeah, no, that'd be tough. That would be tough It would be known like people would think first of them beating the Eagles in the Super Bowl just win just win if the Eagle Everyone knows lose this game. I will have lost 67% of the Super Bowls on this podcast What since I've been here yeah since I've been here mm-hmm yeah, that's a lot we're gonna say Hank That's a lot of podcasts of Super Bowls

The Eagles are gonna lose shut up Hank what the seeds now what I need you you're just a fucking dick now I'm beginning to think you're not actually an Eagles fan Hank well what was last week last week you were you know I was I just I call it how I see it I knew that game was gonna be a blowout I also thought the commander were gonna beat the Lions. I Want the Eagles to win I just It's impossible rooting against the Chiefs is is legitimately like rooting against LeBron On the heat like it reminds me the same way I root as hard as I can against them and they just win

again and again and again Yeah, I wanted this game for Josh so bad and I was just like I should have just bet on the Chiefs because that's the smart play. So what are you going to do with your future? Packed from home is under a field goal. I'm going to ride it out but. I'm riding as well Max. I'm not cashing out. Alright go birds.

I'm riding with you. I'm riding with you. The Chiefs are just really fucking good. So are the Eagles. And they're so well coached. I'd just rather die than not, than root for the Chiefs, but I If you didn't have a future, would you bet the Chiefs? No. I did it last year in the Super Bowl and it was a great experience.

I'll just bet like no. Because it was the whole time. It was just like oh well Mahomes is gonna win this game. Why would you do that? Why'd you kick him in? When he's I was just thinking that's what I did for that's a rule. Do we give enough credit to the chiefs? Fuck chiefs. Okay. I think they're just really good. I don't know what it like. I mean the highest compliment you can get as a fan of a sports team is having everybody in the country hate your team. Yeah. And the refs, it sucks that that happened. The fourth and one that sucks. They're just going to replay that over. That's why it's like, man, the Bills fit. They just invent new ways to just, what is it? What is Max looking up?

Villain hero. I don't know. There was some meme of like the Eagles and the Chiefs playing the Patriots in the Super Bowl and it was some meme of like the Eagles and the Chiefs Playing the Patriots in the Super Bowl and is one of those like America maps of like what every team Oh, yeah, the part of my take account to read that as long Yeah, good job me live long enough to be the villain you yeah, whatever the hell the saying is Yeah, if you're a chief that you realize that people you've broken so many cities, correct through rampage that you know that they're going to hate you. That's how, that's how sports is. We all yearn to be hated. Josh is going to get one, right?

He has to, but this team was like, I know they were rebuilding, uh, but their defense, obviously Benford going out in the first quarter was bad, but like the defense was fairly healthy considering how unhealthy they've been in the last couple years and The AFC is just so goddamn hard. How did you how'd you make that map means? What what data did you sort through for that you either die a hero or live long enough? To see yourself become the villain. Got it off Google. Okay. Yeah.

And now it's flipped again where the Eagles are the hero again, because it's a map of everyone rooting for the Eagles in the Super Bowl against the Patriots and everyone rooting against for the Chiefs in the AFC Championship against the Patriots. And then everyone rooting for the Bills versus the Chiefs and everyone rooting for the commanders against the Eagles. What do you think the breakdown on the new map is going to be though? Because I think we might have a couple of states that are chiefs besides just Kansas and maybe Missouri.

I think Texas might be rooting for the Chiefs. Yeah, Dallas. Houston isn't. Houston is not. Yeah. No. It's a bigger city, too. That is a bigger city.

Yeah, I don't. DC certainly isn't rooting for the Eagles. No. No. I don't. DC certainly isn't written for the Eagles. No, no. I don't think anyone's. Although, yeah, no, DC's giants certainly are not. Yeah, yes, a one winning. Yeah. So, yeah, there's a couple of spots. Niners Niners fans hate the Eagles.

I they also hate. They've lost twice to the Chiefs in the Super Bowl, Max. Chiefs are just destroying everyone So what they do Just be a legend. Yeah, everyone All right, let's take our last break and then we'll do some coaching news and some other stuff We get back to the show in a second

Alright, so coaching news, Liam Cohn is the new head coach for the Jacksonville Jaguars. And it was quite a sorted affair on Thursday. It was after we

recorded, we, we actually got a little bit of it in there, but then more details came out. He spurned the box. He basically, the timeline goes like this. Uh, Liam Cohn took the first interview with the Jaguars actually at the glazers telling him like, Hey, go take this interview. Came back. Balke was still the head, uh, the GM of the Jaguars. The offer was probably in the, I don't know, five, 6 million, whatever you want to call it range. He talks to the Bucks handshake deal.

Bucks are going to make him the highest paid coordinator, offensive coordinator in the league. Part of the handshake deal is he can't go for a second interview with the Jags. Trent Balke gets fired. Sean Khan calls up Liam Cohen says, hey, the price just went up. We're going to pay you 13 13 14 million dollars a year Liam Cohen's now stuck because he made this handshake deal that if he doesn't take a second interview he's not gonna be the highest paid coordinator so he goes to Jacksonville basically tells the Bucs hey I'm gonna come in on Thursday to sign my new contract doesn't take any calls from

them tells him that he's tending to a family emergency. Word gets out that he actually is in Jacksonville interviewing for the Jaguars job. The Jaguars are also trying to keep it under wraps because they had to clear the Rooney rule and get another minority candidate in the building. So they do that on Thursday morning, get Liam Cohn to agree to be the head coach. Then Liam Cohn, I think picks up a phone call from Todd Bowles like, Hey, I'm at the hospital with my kid. And also this Jaguar situation is changing, takes Jaguar's job and the bucks are pissed.

He used the term material change. We haven't seen that in a couple of years. Yeah. I, I don't ever fault a guy for taking a head coaching job because there's very limited supply. If you get the opportunity to do it, you probably wanna do it, and you also get paid a shitload more money. He probably could have handled this a little bit better. But when he, basically he went back to the bucks

and then the Jaguars were like, we understand that there's a guy that you really hate. And I know that we said we weren't gonna fire him, but we want you so much that we're going to fire this guy just to make you happy. And then at that point, they now, if he didn't take that job, they just fired a guy for no real reason. And that was probably like a big selling point for me. I don't have to work with that guy anymore. He's getting, he's getting paid insane money. Uh, Ben Johnson money is what they said, which is insane money as

well. The bears paying Ben Johnson, insane money, but it's unprecedented for a first time head coach. It's also unprecedented for first time head coach to be able to pick their GM. Uh, I don't really blame Liam Cohn at all in this. I know that that's probably, uh, look like scumbag behavior, but the, I don't know what choices he had in the fact that the bucks shouldn't have made it contingent on not taking the second interview. If you're an employer, you should let your employees take those interviews, go see what

is out there, especially in this business when you know that guys are going to try to, you know, get dream jobs. There's only 32 of them. If they didn't make it contingent on him not taking the second interview, I think he probably would have been more forthright about it. But he was stuck in a position where if he takes a second interview, he could potentially lose his job with the box and not get the Jags interview or job. I think if anything, he's guilty of being a bad friend and a bad texture, bad texture

probably could listen, could have handled it better, but I also go back to like, NFL franchises will cut players anytime they want. They will, like our colleague, John Gruden, who worked for the Bucks, signed an extension and then got fired four months later or whatever it was. Or like look at Bobby Slocke, the coordinator for the Texans. After last season, he was one of the hot names out there getting all the interviews. He decides to go back to Houston.

The next season happens. His name is now not in good standing with the rest of the NFL. He gets, he gets fired by the Houston Texans. Lou Anarumo got, was the hottest name after the Bengals go to the Superbowl. He just got fired by the Bengals. Like I, I just think it's such a cutthroat business that if you don't look out for yourself You're kind of like you can't be a nice guy in the NFL You know that's really weird cuz I and you know what the craziest part is Too like I understand Todd Bowles is mad if the Bucks didn't make the playoffs this year Todd Bowles probably would have been fired for Liam Cohen. Yeah, but you know what I

Accept the fact that the Bucks are gonna be pissed at him. Yeah, no what I, I accept the fact that the bucks are going to be pissed at him. Yeah. No, of course they have already, but I'm just like, this guy is a snake. I'm fucking pissed at him. I hope we beat the shit out of him. I hate that guy. That's a, that's a completely reasonable response from the Tampa Bay Buckets. Yeah. But just like big picture, like, yeah, it's a head coaching job. But people like calling him to take it. People calling him like a scumbag. I'm just like, I don't know where's, where's that same energy when a team does that to a player or a team does that to a coach. Cause that happens literally all the time. And now it's the one time it's

flipped where a coach has kind of fucked over a team. I don't know. It's just the NFL's cutthroat. It did play out like a soap opera though. Yeah. It was incredible. It's succession meets eastbound and down. I just, feel like the NFL you just can't expect like loyalty and feelings just don't exist. Because everyone's they know that like, the minute things go bad, you're going to get fired. And the and you have no guarantee of having a job opening like this again, especially with this money. And really, if you want to blame anyone, it's probably, Shad Khan probably should have just fired Trent Balke on Black Monday when everyone expected it, and this would have made it a lot easier.

But to be fair, he was told by Trent Balke that it would be a bad decision to fire Trent Balke. Yeah. Yeah, I think- He got bad information. I think like on a personal level, I think people in the Bucks building should be upset, but I also, again, I think that if the Bucks had a chance to do something like this to a coach or someone they probably would

Whatever makes their team better. They're gonna do so why can't Liam Cohn do whatever makes his life better? You know the only reason why I'm mad is because Baker Because yeah Baker has to have another offensive coordinator And they're gonna run that fucking graphic fine next year where it's the roller coaster all the OCs that he's been with they've gotten fired this guy left he got caught he got traded whatever etc etc that's just that's another thing that he's gonna have to do also uh Liam Cohen has jumped around I think he said this is his fifth different job in five years you hired that guy you knew that that guy could do this you saw the resume.

Right. It's not crazy to be like, wow, I thought he would make roots here and stay forever. Yeah. Some people convince themselves somehow that it's going to work for them, even though it never has. Will it work for us? Yeah. I don't think it might. I also think the Jags, they just got in a spot where Ben Johnson said no to him I don't even know if Mike variable interviewed with them and they like had to do a panic move where the price it basically boxed themselves into being like we have to fire Trent Palki and pay an insane amount of money so that we can get someone that is sought after instead of Having a situation where we end up with like the sixth option and everyone's like, wow, the Jags really fucked this up.

What did it be totally crazy to think like Doug Peterson would have been a good idea. Keep him around. Keep him around. He's the second best in terms of winning percentage in the history of the franchise. That's true. So it was crazy though. The whole thing was crazy. I just thought it was very funny that people were like, how could anyone ever do this?

Like it's the NFL. Yes, this happens Do you think when a coach gets in front of like? like a college coach does a press conference like I want to be here for the rest of my life and Then and then he gets an offer the next day and he jumps like we've seen that a million times I get the Bucks had hired Lane kiffin to be their offensive coordinator Yeah, and then he left after a year Would you be pissed at lane or would you be like, I can't believe that I let the scorpion ride on my

back across the river. Right. Right. And then when, and then when lane Kiffin gets left on a tarmac at USC, that's the other way. It just goes, I feel like everyone just cuts everyone in the back in the NFL and it sucks, but it's just the truth of it. That, that reminded me of the time that Al Davis fired Lane and had a whole PowerPoint presentation on an overhead projector. And he called the media into his room to watch his, his overhead project. And outline the reasons why he just fired Lane Kiffin. So that rocked good segue.

Speaking of Al Davis, Jerry Jones is in his late Al Davis years because he hired, uh, Brian Schottenheimer,heimer, which was his offensive coordinator this year. So the Cowboys, basically the Cowboys off season has gone blocking Mike McCarthy from doing any interviews, having everyone believe that they're going to resign Mike McCarthy, not resigning Mike McCarthy, then doing like a half ass search for head coach calling Dion once. And then Jerry Jones walking down the hallway and being like, Hey, you, what's your name again? You want to be the head coach? And now Brian Schottenheimer said coach and in Jerry even said, uh, one of the weirdest quotes ever. Brian Schottenheimer is known as a career

assistant. He ain't Brian no more. He is now known as the head coach of the Dallas Cowboys. That's his name. He ain't Brian no more. You also left out Jerry Jones, putting off a Emmy-worthy performance in Landman. That was also a big part of their offseason. Well, I think it goes to show you that the Cowboys' job probably not as desirable as Jerry Jones thinks that it is. Yeah. I mean, did didn't even, did they even do a coach search? I don't know if they did. They kind of did. They interviewed a few guys, but if you're Jerry Jones, you, your big cell has always been, you get to be the head head ball coach of the Dallas Cowboys.

And now I think most football guys are like, that's not necessarily a great thing because that means that Jerry Jones is really the head of the entire operation. And I'm just, I have to learn how to be Jerry Jones's bitch while also pretending to be the alpha on this team. When every player on the team understands that like when their boss, their coach is talking to them, he's not really their final boss. He's not the boss boss. And this goes to, I've been saying it for a while now because I thought they weren't going to fire Mike McCarthy or part ways with him. Jerry Jones, the Jerry Jones from the nineties and the Jimmy Johnson stuff and Barry Switzer and then bringing in Parcells. That guy doesn't

exist anymore. He just wants a coach that will just follow whatever he says. And guess who's going to follow whatever he says. The career assistant who was down the hall. He's like, here, you be the head coach. He doesn't, he'll never opportunity, sir. Yeah. Ever since bill Parcells, he's not going to hire someone who is going to have that alpha energy and be like, this is my show. He's going to hire people, Jason Garrett, uh, you know, Mike McCarthy, who, you know, didn't have, who sat out for a year, guys who were going to basically do what Jerry says and be like, thank you Jerry for giving me a life.

Yeah. You're it's like a situation where your head coach is speaking to you guys who were going to basically do what Jerry says and be like, thank you, Jerry, for giving me a life. Yeah. It's like a situation where your head coach is speaking to you after practice, like taking e-boys and he's like, the buck stops here with me. I'm the boss. I'm in charge of everything. And then his hat gets blown off by Jerry Jones helicopter as it lands on the field. Yeah.

Yeah. This has to make you PFT and Max. Oh, he's leaving. He's taking a piss. I think it's a great high about that. I think you guys got to be both very pumped. I think it's a disaster. You just have to ask the fans of teams that Schottenheimer has coached for in the past, what they think of them. Yeah. Now I could be wrong. I've been wrong before. I was wrong last year about Dan Quinn. I should have had him second on, I should

have him first instead of, but I have him like third. Yeah. But I've been wrong before. I don't always get it right. But if you're asking me right now, I love it. I love this hire. And people are bringing up like, Oh, well everyone thought Dan Campbell was crazy. This hire could work.

I think it's more the fact that the process made no sense because it doesn't feel again, like they did. It felt like Jerry Jones Just called up Deon Sanders was like do you want the job? He's like no Is that right? I think you talked to Brian Sean. I'm yeah who Pete Carroll got hired by the Raiders, which is awesome Because Pete Carroll is it's gonna be fun to have him back there. He will be on week one He will be the oldest coach to coach an NFL game there he will be on week one he will be the oldest coach to coach an NFL game. I think he beats Romeo Cornell by like six months who was the oldest pre who is the oldest right now when

he was interim for the Texans. But the real story with Pete Carroll being in the Raiders is that Jim Harbaugh and Pete Carroll are destined to just go against each other. I love that they no matter what they will always follow each other. This time it's Pete Carroll following Jim Harbaugh. Obviously we had Stanford and USC and their famous dust ups, the biggest upset ever 41 and a half point favorites. Then Pete Carroll goes to the Seahawks, Jim Harbaugh goes to the Niners and now Jim Harbaugh to the Chargers and Pete Carroll to the Raiders. They just, they have to be together. And it's not just those two that hold the vision rocks. Yeah that whole division you got Andy Reid and Sean Payton

Yeah, and then Harbaugh and Pete Carroll. Yeah, it's great. That's gonna be great. I'm excited about that I also like I like Pete Carroll teaming up with Tom Brady because Pete Carroll He's not he might be on his own TB 12 thing because he does not look like the oldest coach No, he's young as fuck Yeah, he's he's like as young his body years his true body years If you were to measure it and whatever shit Dana White got extracted from his blood that one time Yeah, he's probably about as as young as me or you. Yeah, I think our buck That might actually just say that we're very old, but we meet somewhere in the middle. Yeah

Also, he basically won the whole thing because he beat Alcares Wait, it would tweeting out a picture of your is that HIPAA? He doesn't care about that shit. Yeah, right. Uh, hey

Hank you want to recap your dart stream at all? It was great. The dart stream went well Yeah, it went a lot better than I thought. I got a triple because we split it up into the three legs. 180, 180, 141. The second leg was always going to be help, which I thought was going to take a lot of time. I thought it was going to be, you know, I was tired. We're going to have guests come in. You guys are going to come in. Anyone can throw darts if they hit two. I always had to the third one. I had a 180 in my own the first hour, which was a miracle on its own then max hit two Triple 20s and I just stepped up and hit the third one first time

Absolute miracle if we're being completely honest and then PFT came in the morning with Blake He you know at his request we turned him into a golf stream Hit a hole in one in the first five attempts. No big deal So the stream I was expecting to like I was again dreading it I thought it was still gonna be going right now Like I thought I was gonna be living at this office, you know doing this podcast and being like, alright, see you guys I'm gonna go to sleep here wake up and continue the stream So when I got home on Saturday afternoon and I was done, it was a great relief.

Thank you to everyone who tuned in. It was honestly fun. We had a good time. Liam Blutman, he got the game dart. He just hung out just to hang out. Like he didn't even have to be here. I kept trying to tell him like, you don't have to stay dude.

And he was like, no, I'm chilling. Darts are ball. Yeah. Yeah. A game dart was a touching award I was I was bouncing in and out on Friday night when you got started keeping tabs on I got oiled up Yeah, when I yeah, I was about to say when I tuned in I was I was greeted with Hank Just completely shirtless covered in oil throwing darts for about an hour

Can you explain that to me everyone in the chat was like oil up max oil, oil up Pug, oil up Hank. Somebody said boil Pug. Someone said boil Pug. And I was one leg in, and I was like, if we get the second leg done before SabaLanka starts, which was at 2.30 in the morning, I was like, I'll get oiled up. Thinking that was not gonna happen, and it happened. So I, man of my word, I got oiled up.

Yeah, you were glistening. Love it. It also made the darts so oily. Yeah, which was no duh But like and so hard to throw. Yeah, it was a it was a big detriment to you crushed it Hank. You crushed it Yeah, my arm. I think if my left arm is definitely Pretty injured if we had gotten another like six to eight hours I would probably would have been like Tommy John I another like six to eight hours I probably would have been like Tommy John I I tuned in on Friday night when I got home from the movies and I you I like

almost instantly you hit your first 180 and I was so pumped for you what about the sleep talking yeah well I was worried about the sleep talking I wasn't even planning on sleeping but I stayed up it was like eight o'clock I was getting we turned the chat we turned the stream over every 12 hours you have to like start a new stream just so that it stays live on YouTube and the overnight vibes are great We were watching tennis having a good time. Everyone was positive We switched over at like 7 a.m. And I hadn't slept so I was maybe a little irritated too and Everyone was so negative and they were so annoying

Just and that's why I realized I was like I'm fatigued I'm tired like I'm not we had the Iraq's on 10-minute edge where I got a mulligan I didn't get through it and I was like I need to take a break I'm gonna take a nap two hours and then we'll you know we'll finish this thing didn't put on any mouth tape and my friend Kurt you guys have all met he was in the chat at like 4 a.m., like he just popped in and was like, oh, what's up?

And I was like, oh, Kurt. So it must've just been on the top of my mind. And in my sleep, I was yelling. I was just like, Kurt. Kurt. Which was my biggest fear, cause I've gone into trouble before where I just, I don't know why I say what I say.

I don't have any Recollection of the dreams or what's going on in my head when I say it But I have woken up many times people being like what the fuck was that who is this person like what is that about? And I'm like I have no idea so the I'm happy it was just Kurt like that's where it's like shit gets weird in My sleep I was worried about it, and that was why that's very funny. Yeah, he probably thinks you're dreaming about him No, I text him a clip. I was like, yeah, yeah, I mean he was you were chat. Yeah. Yeah, but it's always like it's like one of Those random things it's like it's not there's no rhyme or reason It's just like it was probably because I was like talking about him or to him like late at night

And then it was just like yeah, yeah, he's the last thing in your head. Yeah Okay, pft your who's back my who's back of the week is gonna be not understanding jokes Mmm, cuz Hank has been on this Gunnicide for the last five days. Mmm, and when he explained it mean big cat were just like yeah, wait, what's what? What's the joke? I don't think it's I don't I don't you think it's it's very funny. I don't know. It might be funny I don't know. I don't yeah, I don't know either. I don't think it's very funny. I don't know. It might be funny. I don't know. I don't. Yeah. I don't know either. I don't think it's funny. You think it's funny. No, I don't. Basically what happened was, if you're way too deep on life. Yeah. No, you probably know this. A guy,

there's a, there's a coffee shop in Arizona where the, the baristas wear bikinis. A guy got caught on video, uh, jerking off while trying to order coffee. He became a meme and then he killed himself. So it's not funny I agreed not funny at all. He's bringing up the goodness I was like, did you guys see about the goodness I then earlier like 30 minutes ago Hank was like they held a good I had a good Hank explained to us last week and we just sat here. We're like wait, we're that's not the guy died That's fucked up and he was just like yeah, I probably should have said this

Thank you think it's one of those things just needs to stay online. You think he's gonna be cremated? Again like I can't help memes make me laugh and sometimes they're they're messed up Hank who's gonna eulogism? Yeah It's it's a sad story. Not understanding jokes. Did I tell you guys the one that I had? The gunneral. The gunneral, the cementary.

Yeah. Yeah. The one I had last week that made me want to kill myself was our good friend Keith Yandel, who's now part of Barstool Sports. Shout out to Spit and Chicklets. They've added the ends. I was talking to the ends about mini golf and like now that he's part of Barstool, I was like, we got to get you in all these things. And I was like, you got to come and do March Madness

with us. And he replied and he's like, when is that? And I was like, it's March. And he's like, Yeah, I fucking know. I was joking. And I was like, I want to, I might just kill myself and leave it as a suicide note. But to be fair, you were texting with the hands and in your mind, it was like 50% like texting with biz. Yeah, but maybe maybe he's got like, he said to me and then he made worse. He's like, I think he's like, I used to get all the Canadian dudes in the locker room with that one. I think you're the first American I've ever gotten. And I was like, God fucking damn it. So yeah, yeah. And it's the best. So hopefully he'll, he'll be here for March madness, which

is in March. Also a little bit in April. Yeah. Uh, speaking of which by who's back national sports podcast, college basketball, college basketball is back for me feast week. Uh, I love college basketball, but now that the football is over, weekends are for a lot of American college basketball. Quick thoughts on college basketball. Duke is a problem, but the ACC fucking sucks. So I'm just going to tell myself that they're good only because they're killing everyone in the ACC. The SEC is so goddamn loaded. Auburn and Alabama are both really fucking good. Uh, Tennessee's good. Florida's really, really good. Houston's the same team every year. Uh, and I'm trying to think what other thoughts as Kansas, well, Kansas, that was one of, I hate Kansas so

much now. Uh, that was, they were, they were up six going to the line with 18 seconds left and somehow lost that game in double overtime. Is that worse than what A&M did though? A&M was no, because I should have even said Kansas also in regulation, they were up three and they got a five second call with two timeouts. Yes. A&M I like A&M, I like A&M. I think A&M's gonna be a good tournament team,

but yeah, they completely choked against Texas. That was a meltdown, that was bad. Total meltdown. And then also for the sickos and perverts out there, I have started to believe in the Wisconsin Badgers who are ranked and their offense is actually awesome and they whap threes and so Get ready for me to have my heart broken on that because I actually believe that they could make a run

Which they won't and you guys get to watch that on live stream. Also last one I had was Villanova Dead next so when you told me to bet Eric Dixon Player of the year and I bet it, was that a bad bet? Bad bet. I didn't even get a week of thinking that was a good bet. Incorrect. UConn. UConn. Yeah, UConn. It was a hundred to one. I like, if you give someone a hundred to one,

you can't be like, Oh, what the fuck? It's a hundred to one. It was obviously was going to win. Villanova was supposed to make the tournament you said Yeah, and then they started sucking again, but it's okay By the way people are mad about Dan Hurley if you missed it last week. He yelled at a ref don't turn your back on me I'm the best fucking coach in the league or in the country Jay Billis did a whole preachy thing where he's like, this is just you're being dis disingenuous. Yeah. He was, he did a preachy thing. I can't say this clearly enough. College basketball needs asshole coaches. That's what it was built on. It's the, the players change in

the big East. The transfer portal has changed everything. You don't know who you're rooting for. I need a Bayheim. I need a coach K I need a, like as much as I hate coach K. He has that that like I hate him. I want to root against him. Dan Hurley is that if you hate him that's good for college basketball. So I want him to do whatever he wants to do. He's also being just as hard on his own players as he is the refs. Although he had a great line.
