What? Hey, hey, hey, no, no, no, get up. For both of us. Oh, and watch again, oh, I'm on it. Oh, we start in Germany. Guten tag, NFL fans. God bless you, boom. Tom Brady hoped to offset his crypto losses

by increasing the value of the bucks. Our foreign correspondent PFT commenter was live in Munich for this one, so let's kick it to him for a recap of the game. Yes, stop me if you've heard this before, but we've got a team from Washington invading Europe, trying to combat the Blitz. Hey, speaking of Deutschmarks,

here's another buck that's dealt with out-of-control inflation issues before. That's right, it's Tom Brady. Hey, I know another leader who appealed to the power variants. DK Meinkamp got locked up and didn't write back. It looks like the Seahawks really missed their chancellor, and boy, did that guy love Wagner too. Pete Carroll learned offense from Norm Chow,

but ironically, it was his Norman D that let them down. Rashad and Devin really rallied the German fans of the stands, we're all having a blast talking about how great those whites were. As a nice change of pace, this time the leader who has absolutely destroyed his own face recently ended up winning. Oh, and also Chris Godwin had a touchdown

that sent the stands into a frenzy, but you know who else liked to rile up crowds. And that was PFT commenter unloading the clip. Box 21, Seahawks 16. And back stateside in Kansas City, where Cadarius Tony Robbins did the hot call walk down the sideline for a touchdown, reminding people your past does not equal your future.

Or put more succinctly, when you catch balls from Patrick Mahomes, you'll actually be good at the NFL. Christian Twerk had Chief Stuffingers chasing him from behind, staring at his ass as he scored twice. Noah, that shit gray, balled so hard, motherfuckers want to find me, scored, and the Chiefs were too much for the Jaguars. As Chris Kirkpatrick Mahomes was in sync

with his offense all afternoon and said, bye, bye, bye, to the Jaguars that tipped in an upset. Chiefs, toys of it, the Jaguars of it. In Western New York, Justin Jefferson Starship flew above the defenders all day, singing, don't you want somebody to glove? Don't you need me to catch with this glove? In a game with too many cooks, it

was Dalvin who won top chef using the simple ingredients of a good block and pure speed. The game was a wild one down to the end, when Eric Jimi Kendricks recovered a fumble in the end zone, making Viking fans go into a purple haze of delirium. And as we went to overtime, it was the new nightmare Kirk Cousins leading the Vikings to an improbable victory, sending the haters, of which there

are many, deep into a bottle of copium. Vikings 36, Bills 33, pass that copium to each. Over to Nashville in a touching tribute to LeBron James. Lion Tannehill was back and reportedly told Coach Brable before the season began, yeah, I think this is the Daniel Hackett guy is in over his head. Also, there's no way that you'll

suck we'll come to this team. Speaking of Tannehill, his new found weapon, Nick Westbrook Aquini Matata, means no worries for their passing craze, as they linked up for 119 yards and two touchdowns. On the other side of the ball, people are starting to ask if Suss Wilson really is a quarterback at all. Huh?

Huh? Titan 17, Bronco's done. Up to Chicago where Bears fans are in a foreigner mindset, as it feels like the first time. It feels like the very first time that they've had a franchise quarterback, as Justin ran all over the Lions defense. Skull Comet dipped into the end zone twice,

but Bears fans felt Egypt out of a victory, as Cairo missed a crucial extra point. In a turn of events, Kennedy was the one that fired the last shot as Tom's 44 yard game set up the game-winning touchdown for Detroit, as Lions fans are saying, I never knew there was chicken in it. I never knew there were road wins in this soup, with Dan Chunky Campbell sealing his first victory away

from home. Lions 31, Bears 30, you could keep that part in. I thought about the commercial there. Pass it down. Don't hog it off. Don't hog it off! Down to Miami where it was the docking ball, as Chubb went head first, first chubb.

But enough about that, as we better put this chubb talk to bed before Deshaun Watson returns. Brown's defenders couldn't quite hold on to Jeff Wilson Phillips, as he ran for 117 yards and told Cleveland fans, things will go your way. Just kidding, you're the Browns. You know this game sucked because everyone's least favorite character, Skyler White Thompson,

made an appearance at the end. Dolphin 39, the Browns, 70. Out to Vegas where it may be Sunday, but Jeff Saturday is for the boys. Viva, speaking of for the boys, Jonathan Taylor Luan ripped off a monster touchdown run, and somebody please check his piss. And in a surprise start, Matt Ryan was rumbling,

bumbling, stumbling, and rumbling for almost 40 yards in a scramble. The most exciting moment of the game for the Raiders occurred before kick, when Fiatty walked on the field to tell Josh Fritiniols, you're not that guy, pal. The Colts beat the Raiders 25-20. Some spread, some spread.

Up to the frozen tundra, where we regret to inform you of the passing of Mike McCarthy's personal mentor, Gallagher. Hope the Watermelons are ripe in heaven. The Green Day Packers have been playing like dookie after their quarterback has been sipping on brain stew. CD Lambchop scored twice in for a moment. It felt like the game that never ends.

It just goes on and on, my friends. Some people started watching it, not knowing what it was, and they'll continue watching it forever, just because Mason Crosby stills and Nash won the game in overtime and reminded his quarterback. If you can't get the first round receivers that you want, loves the one you're with, loves the one you're with.

Packers, 31. Cowboys, 28. Sitting on a corner, James Winston down and Nola's such a fine sight to see. It's Coach Tomlin and George Pickens making the injured very happy. Come on Pittsburgh, TJ's not injured. Put James in, I'm sick of this ginger.

Stalers, 20. Saints, 10. And that is week 10, brought to you by our friends at Chevy. Check out the all-new Chevy Silverado. It is the greatest truck ever created, the Chevy Silverado. There is one player that is never a pretender

and always a contender, because we are in that part of the season where we find out who's for real. That player is the Chevy Silverado. Silverado shows up week in and week out with unstoppable grit and determination. Chevy Silverado is the ultimate tailgate flex with the available multi-flex tailgate

and power outlet built right into the bed. And the first ever ZR2 is the ultimate off-road machine from tailgates and stadiums lots to off-road adventures. Chevy Silverado has you covered. Head over to chevy.com to learn more about the Chevy Silverado today and check out the first ever ZR2. It's the ultimate off-road machine.

Thank you to Chevy. Thank you to Silverado. We love you both. And that was week 10 boomers. Okay, week 10 in the books. We've got about nine minutes left in Sunday Night Football. Chargers 16, 49ers 13 right now.

We'll update when we finish. It feels like a Jimmy G doesn't have his A-game game. When does Jimmy G have his A-game game? Every now and then. But I think a 49ers fan responded to me on Twitter. I was like, get your shit together 49ers. He's like, when Jimmy G is not playing well, the whole team just like drops to his level.

So Kyle Shanahan is obsessed with Christian McCaffrey. Obsessed. He's like obsessed. Capital O, like butt crazy. Going nuts. He's like a clinger a little bit. He's calling every play for him. And sometimes they just get up to the line and scrimmage. Oh, is this going to be a touchdown for Jimmy G?

Nope, almost. Sometimes they get up to the line and scrimmage and it just looks like the play call is just Kyle Shanahan says run to the right. Well, also there's these plays where Christian McCaffrey and I know obviously a football mind will tell me I'm wrong and they're actually serve a purpose. But there are some plays where he just wants to see

Christian McCaffrey run in circles. Cause they'll just like run behind the line of scrimmage like a bunch of different ways. And then not, and then Jimmy G will just sneak it right going, you know, forward just to distract him. It's, it's kind of a, look at my thumb. Gee, you're dumb for Kyle Shanahan in football form. Or just like having Christian McCaffrey run over

towards the sideline. So Kyle can see him up close. Just be like, yeah, he looks good. Doesn't he? Yeah, he looks really good. I did that. I brought him here. Yeah, he looks real good.

All right. So yeah, we will recap that week 10, crazy week, crazy games. We usually go chronological order, which would mean we would start in Germany, but I, I, we have to change it up this time because we had what people are saying is the game of the year thus far. And it is Vikings 33,

Bill's 30 and absolutely chaotic game. The Vikings are now eight and one. Should we start by saying something nice about the Viking? I'll say something nice about the Vikings. Justin Jefferson is the best receiver in the NFL. And, and I'm confident in saying that what he did in that game, the catches he made, the fourth down catch he made was one of the craziest

catches I've ever seen. He intercepted the ball from the defender with one hand. And that was the, he had already made a one hand catch. He made like four or five catches in this game that everyone in the room stopped and was like, Holy fuck, that was insane. Yeah. When he's not open, he's very open. He just throw the ball in his general direction

and he'll figure out a way to catch it. The one catch that he made that everyone's talked about, he got his one hand on. The defender actually jumped up in the air, got two hands on the ball. They fall to the ground. I bet you if the defender wasn't touching the ball at that point, I think he would have dropped it.

I think the defender like helped him make that catch. The game's over though. The game's over if he doesn't catch that. He's just, he's, he's insane. He's not real. He did the gritty and when he did the gritty, a lot of people listen, me and Big Hat are gritty experts here on the show.

We do gritty power rankings. Kirk Cousins still by far the best gritty that I've ever seen. Yeah. When he did the gritty and he pretended to like pop his hamstring. Yup. The announcers freaked the fuck out.

They were like, oh my God. They didn't understand. They were like, oh no, Justin Jefferson, because it was the first drive. We've told you on this show, but if you don't bet the Vikings to like, you know, have like first quarter over or whatever the line could be, they always score in their first drive.

I think it's six out of nine games now. They score on their, a touchdown on their first drive. Yeah, he pops the hammy gritty and the announcers freak out and this is probably the only time like very nuanced, detailed celebrations in the NFL is maybe the only thing that we can be cool about anymore. Because listen, we're very good at watching football. We do right away.

We're awesome at watching football. I'd say that we're like a maybe a top 100 football watcher in the United States right now. Yeah, not just so people don't get upset about that statement. We don't know the most about football. We just are the best at sitting there and doing nothing and visually just having our eyes

on football games for as many hours as possible. And absorbing the dumbest things about the games and becoming experts on those. But yes, we're very cool. And so we knew that that's a thing that he's doing. It's part of the gritty. Don't get tricked. The announcers flipped out.

They were panicking. They're like, is he going to be gone for the rest of the game? No, no, no, no, no, that's just what the kids are doing where they're gritties. It's cool to continue. Sean Jackson, he's actually way ahead of his time pretending that he's had a hurt hamstring for the last 12 years.

Yes, he's been doing it for a very long time. Justin Jefferson, though. And we talk about more stuff in this game, but I just like what he does for this team and like the big playability and the catches he makes. And then you even saw it, that pass interference call that he got in the overtime, I believe, to extend the drive. It was simply because Justin Jefferson

had burned the bill so bad that day that whatever cornerback was on him was just so frustrated he just shoved them over. He's like, I'm sick of getting burned and I just don't want to do this anymore. So I'm just going to try to push you and hope that they don't call it. That's like those are the plays that don't show up

on his stat sheet, which was 10 for 193 in a touchdown. But every big play, every big third down, fourth down, it felt like the Vikings were just hanging on and whenever they needed something, it was like, all right, I'm just going to throw it and Kirk Cunn's like, I'm going to throw it in Justin Jefferson's general vicinity and I know that he will make a play

because he's better than everyone else. Yeah, so I actually was thinking about Justin Jefferson's ability to draw past her appearances because that's something that isn't tracked as much in your stat sheet as it could be. And it's actually like a real big asset. If you can get good at drawing those interferences, those are as good as catches.

Like in terms of game flow, in terms of what it means to help your team win. And so I actually had Stathole Sports look up how good certain players were. Justin Jefferson was, he was number six in the NFL last year in terms of yardage drawn from pass interference. Okay, who is one? Number one, Tyreek?

No, Tyreek is number one this year. In fact, the Dolphins, both Waddle and Hill are both top five in the NFL at drawing. I think that's what Mike McDaniel learned. He's like, we can actually absolutely hack the rule book. If you just run faster than everyone. And then probably maybe get under thrown just a little bit, just a little bit.

And then you start working your way back to the ball you get interfered with. I'm just saying like, teaming those guys up, teaming those guys up with Tua who occasionally in practice will throw into a heavy wind. That's like, that is the new money ball. It's just fast, fast wide receivers with like 95% arm strength quarterbacks.

Joe Flacco showed us the way. He did, he absolutely did. So Brandon Cooks was number one by far last year. Okay. He's really, really, and I think that's something that he's been, he's been consistent at, but also number two this year is Cortland Sutton.

And he was number two last year also. So he's just elite at it. I wonder too, that's a very funny like stat because I bet you there's something too with like Brandon Cooks being number one last year. It probably helps that he's the only weapon on the Texans. So there's multiple defenders and more of a chance for him to get past interfered.

That's true. And our friend Sam Schwartzstein told me he was talking to me a couple of weeks ago about like how cornerbacks, how you have to be really good at cheating, to be really good at playing at being the possession. Yeah, they'll change the rules for you. If you break the rules hard enough,

they won't call it every single time. So he was saying that actually cornerbacks that get called for a lot of pass interference are usually the best quarterbacks in the league, cornerbacks in the league because to commit pass interference, you have to be close enough to the man that you're covering to reach out and touch him, which is a real backwards way to look at it.

That's the old Derek Jeter, friend of the show now, but you can't get an error if you don't get close to the ball. That's very true. That's exactly the same thing. Yes, you don't touch it. Yeah, so this game though. It was awesome. It was awesome.

It was awesome. It was crazy. The bills, we should talk a little bit about the bills, the fact that the bills, as good as they are, it does feel, there's two games now that I can point to where it feels like for a lack of a better way of describing it, they've been kind of playing with their food.

Like the Packers game on Sunday Night Football, when they were up a lot and they should have won, it should have been a total blowout and it kind of got weird at the end where they only won by 10. And then this game, where they were in control of the entire first half, they were in control of the start of the second half,

it felt like there was that moment where they were going, they were up 10, they didn't kick a field goal, it was fourth and two, Josh Allen threw an interception, which ended up not mattering because it's fourth and two. So you're just trying to make a play. And then from that moment on, it was like, wait, the Bills could lose this game? And then just crazy plays kept on happening

for the Vikings up until the Bills win the game with Kirk Cousins getting stopped at the one inch line. And then the next play, the Bills fumbling in the end zone for a Vikings touchdown, which was one of the craziest like two-play sequences because Kirk Cousins looked like he got in with a second effort, but didn't. And then the next play, Josh Allen, center, fumble, I don't know whose fault it was,

and Eric Kendrick's dives on it and the Vikings, people say as a ball don't lie, it was not because it was correctly called that Kirk Cousins was down, but it was wild. It was wild. It was crazy at the end of that game. And the way that the Bills ended up losing it was actually very Vikings-like.

Yeah. It was a very Vikings ending for them where it's just like, the game's wrapped up, it's in their hand, and it was just heartbreak form at the end. But it's also very Vikings-like. Now, Vikings fans, this is where you'll start getting upset. I do think your team is good. That was an impressive win.

I'll say that. Kirk Cousins made some big-time throws, mostly Justin Jefferson catches, but he also made some doidoy plays. He made some big-time throws also to the Bills. Yes, he did. He made a couple doidoy plays, but a road win in Buffalo against that Bills team,

no matter what status Josh Allen is, deserves credit. So I'm giving you your credit right now. Eight and one, that's, there's some luck in there, but that's, you don't apologize for luck, you're eight and one, but having that sequence happen is very, that was a microcosm of this Viking season, because it does feel like they're getting a lot of the bounces, and sometimes it's just your season,

and this is where I start getting worried that maybe the bounces just keep going all the way to the super. And then also they have an impactful back, as we've discussed on this program. CJ Ham got a nice touchdown in there. Third running game, just overall. Dava Cook, yes.

That's what's gonna be a problem. The Vikings are a good team. I will freely admit that. The Vikings are, they're very good. It's past the point where we can say otherwise. No, I can't. So we could come on the air right now and we could say that the Vikings are complete

and total frauds, but that would be disingenuous, because I don't believe that the Vikings are complete and total. I think that they're partially frauds. I think they're a very good team that now. They're fraudulent adjacent. I would say I am worried that they would get to the NFC Championship game.

I am now officially saying that because the way the NFC is shaking out, it feels like the Vikings will get that second seed and whoever is the seventh seed is going to be a team that we think about as like, ooh, watch out for them. Like a Packers, possibly maybe a Seahawks or 49ers, or I mean Rams are kind of dead, but one of those teams, or the Giants maybe,

and I think the Vikings will beat them and be on their way. Like I, I'm a little worried. I think they will have home field advantage to the NFC Championship. The Vikings will probably win a playoff game and we will get nervous at that point. I'm worried about the bill's defense

because we talked about it a little bit last week. They feel a little bit small on defense. They feel like they- They got run on. Yeah, they're built to stop, you know, to play with a lead and to stop opposing quarterbacks from passing. They're built to get after the quarterback.

They're not really built to plug up those holes up front and they got gash. What are you gonna say, Hank? One and three without Jordan Boyer. One and three without Jordan, that he's significant. I also, we should have a Josh Allen discussion. We are a Josh Allen podcast. We were probably the first one.

We love him. He makes too many tackles. Best friend of ours. So there's two ways to look at it. One is he has been making some mistakes. Like he, that was a bad throw in overtime. I still think the fourth and two, you're just making a play.

If you can't convert the fourth down and interception doesn't matter. Yeah. It was a bad throw in overtime. He obviously had a bad game against the Jets. He made another bad interception against the Packers when they were trying to put that game away. As bad as those look, I do believe

and people will call us bias, that's just the Josh Allen experience. Because what he does well, you have to let him play freely. And he just like, getting down to where that interception took place. He was making insane runs. He made big time passes to get them to overtime.

It's kind of a, you take the good with the bad and sometimes there are some bad throws, but that's just how he played. Like you can't, you can't put him in a box. You can't be like Josh Allen game manage. You can't tell a cage bird not to sing. You know what I mean though? And I know people will say,

oh, you're just saying this and you're excusing a bad throw. It was a bad throw. It was a bad throw. And I actually said it when we were watching live. I was like, I feel like a bad throw is gonna happen. He was taking a lot of chances. And I think when he's like even partially injured,

when he's 3% injured, those throws that he usually gets away with because he always makes weird throws that you watch him and you're like, you should not pass that ball. It's a bad idea, but he makes it happen because he's like the only person on the planet that can do some of the stuff that he does.

But if he's just like a little bit injured even, all those throws turn into like the worst mistakes that you've ever seen. And so yeah, it's tough. He does make too many tackles on defense. Just like let a couple, I don't know, let a wide receiver chase that guy down occasionally and he's still running over.

He's jumping over people. He plays recklessly, but that's kind of what's awesome about watching him. It's absolutely what's awesome. If he stopped playing recklessly, it would take away all the joy of watching Josh out. That's my point. It's like you can't walk away from that game being like,

oh man, we gotta fix this issue. Yes, he has to make better decisions at times, but all the good things that happen are because he's just like playing this free football where it's like he's running over people. He's throwing it long. So I don't know. It does feel like the bills are in that funk,

that mid-season funk that teams can get into, especially when you are a Super Bowl favorite and you're killing everyone and it's like, oh, we're just waiting for the big games. This can happen to teams. So it will be interesting to see how they respond. Like they need to write it. They need to get, I don't know who they play next week.

Oh, home against the Brown. Yeah, so that's gotta be a wamping. I expect that to be an absolute wamping. And if it isn't, then I will say, hey, something's wrong because the Vikings, like we said, are a good team. They're good. Now, if I were to disrespect the Vikings,

which I won't do, because we're saying very nice things about them. Never said that. I would point out that since the merger, the Vikings are the second worst eight and one team of all time in terms of point differential. Oh, point differential now. I'm not gonna say it, but if I were to disrespect them,

I would bring that up. PFT, pretend that I am five years old. What is point differential? That's the points that you score minus the points that the other guy scores. So if you score more points than the other team, and you're eight and one, if you're eight and one, you should have a lot more points than the other team.

Yeah, you should. You should have a ton more points than the other team. How many more do the Vikings have? These Vikings have, hang on, plus 35 right now. They're eight and one? They're eight and one. So what's eight, what's 35 divided by eight? I'm not a math guy.

It's about seven. No, that's not seven. No, Jake. Whoa. No, Jake. That's about right. Jake. Oh, no.

35 divided by nine, is that what we're looking at? Oh boy, it's like four and a half. Yeah, that's about right. Is that right? That's about right. So I really want to find out more about the 1976 Raiders, because the 1976 Raiders were eight and one, and they had a cumulative point differential of 11.

I like that. Of nine wins. They were 11 points better than the other four. They had to have lost by a lot. Billions of one team. Which I would actually respect. If you're, well, that's kind of what the, okay, now I'm talking my way back

into respecting the Vikings. Yeah, because they lost to the Eagles. They got killed by the Eagles, which means that they're probably beating other teams by a decent amount. But yeah, congratulations to the Vikings. Congrats, Kirk Cousins. They're a good team.

He didn't wear any of the chains, or he didn't do the Kirk Thuggins thing. Like he didn't do anything. I thought we were expecting something. They were going to. And then Kirk was like, I think that's probably reached the end of, it's actually like a great move by Kirk

to nip this in the bud. God damn it. Because if it went on week after week, then it would get really lame. But he cut it off after like two times when it was cool. So fucking Kirk Cousins, I hate how much I like you. You piece of shit.

That sucks. You very pleasant likable asshole. And the perverts and sicko Viking fans that are listening to this and listening to us have to compliment their team. Knowing how much it pains us, you're right. It does pain us. And I will say, the refs missed a call in overtime too.

They did. Gabe Davis. No, going to overtime. It was to get the field goal to bring it to overtime. There we go. At the end of the fourth quarter, Gabe Davis dives out of bounds. He lost control of the ball and replay,

but they sprinted up to the line of scrimmage and they ran a play before the replay official could buzz down. But this is why. Stole don't lie. This is why I'm nervous about the Vikings because their luck is so overpowerful, overpowering of the other team that even when they get screwed, they still won.

Because the rule is, you can't complain about that call when you win. Like you can't be like, well, what about that call? No, no, no, you won. So it's all good, but that's how strong their luck has been this year. It's been pretty good. It's been very, very strong.

It's been good. And the Vikings are, I mean, I would be confident if I were them because today you proved that you're not a fluke. It's not a flukey team that you have. You can play with anybody. No, the Bills are, everyone thinks the Bills are the best team or one of the best team.

Vikings fans are also deeply, deeply scarred from the things that they've seen in their past. Yeah, the history of their franchise. Like I'd say that they're probably, they're up there with the Falcons for being the most, like they carry around a certain heaviness to a Vikings fan. And I mean, it's just always in the back of your head,

like this can't be good. And we've talked about it. They're also Timberwolves fans, twins fans, wild fans. That mean the Lynx, shout out the Lynx. Lynx are a fucking dynasty. I know that they don't like me because of what I've said about Kirk Cousins in the past. I actually like Vikings fans.

I would do the exact same thing that they do right now. If I was a Viking fan. Oh no, it's actually the purest form of like all's fair. And when Vikings fans get like shitty in my mentions, I'm like, this is, I'll keep saying what I'm saying. You say what you're saying, we have our lines and it's respect. Yeah, it's Minnesota nice.

Yeah, it's a respectful like, you don't like me, I don't like you. But we also kind of like each other. It's the very definition of Minnesota nice. It's like, I hate you, but I'm still going to keep interacting with you because like you're being friendly. Yeah, right, right.

And then when we get the last laugh, you'll have to listen to that. And it's coming. That's very true. I've already got my ass cheek picked out. I'm going with the right one. Nice. Right butt cheek.

I think I'm going to go tramp stamp. If I can have to get face. Kirk Cousins face on the smaller back. It will already like kind of ruin everything. So why not just really ruin it? The thing about guys' asses is that like nobody looks at a guy's naked butt and it is like, oh, that looks hot.

So like I could have Kirk Cousins face. I could actually go across both butt cheeks and have his mouth be the hole. I might be the grundle. I'm going to put him in the grundle. So he's eating my ass. Now we're talking. And that's talking, viking his bills.

All right. Next up. Oh, last thing, Justin Jefferson now has the most 100 yard receiving games in the first three seasons for any wide receiver. He just passed Randy Moss. So that's pretty crazy. That's awesome.

Yeah, pretty nice. He has 20 of them. He is very fun to watch. He's so fun to watch. All right. Back to Germany. Bucks, Seahawks, Bucks 21, Seahawks 16. The Bucks, it feels like this is now

the Bucks that we've been waiting for. Their defense played well. Their run game actually showed up, which was crazy. And the Bucks slowly maybe have been writing the ship. Like that was big time zone game, though. It was, no. And I told you, I told you those treats were coming. Tom Brady, the first ever quarterback

to win in four different countries. It's a sad torch passing game, though. Why? Did you guys hear this stat? Big time passing the torch for this one. Tom Brady just surpassed Blake Bortles to become the league leader in passing yards in international games.

Wow, that is sad. Tom Brady now has 1,210 international passing yards. Wait, take out Mexico, though. North America shouldn't. International games. Yeah, I know, but it should just be non-North American games. Yeah.

So I think we still get it. Okay, because Blake Bortles has 1,209. So Brady has one more yard. So either, wait, wait, wait. We could also go back and review all the film. Yeah, I would like to do that. And then take out, see if we can find one incorrectly scored throw by Tom Brady.

I'd like to do that, yes. And restore it, because there's no chance that Tom's going to continue to play. This has got to be towards the end, right? He's not going to play another international game. He's lost a lot of money recently. He lost a lot of money recently. Probably going to be around for the next 20 years.

Yeah, he's between a quick way to get a guy to keep having to work really hard at his job. Divorce and being involved in a crypto scam. That's about it. There's a massive overlap in those two Vindana Grammys. Yeah, that is. Yeah, I would say he's kind of hit the bingo this week. Or yeah, this last two weeks of everything

you don't want to have happen. I've got another crazy stat here. The Bucks have scored 21 points or less in all five of their victories this year. That is crazy. I mean, the way that, and I bet on the Bucks this morning and I basically, everyone knows I've actually like climbing out of my hole of what they put me in

in terms of trusting them to like be a competent team. They basically, their defense is still very, very good. And Antoine Winfield was back. If they can play competent, semi-competent offensive football, which they were able, like this is the first time they've been able to run the ball all year. Julio Jones showed up, that was crazy.

Tom Brady was good outside of his interception. Like that look like a team as good as the Seahawks season has been, they're just better than the Seahawks. Like they were just a better team than the Seahawks. Now they're five and five. They're, I think the Falcons are four and six, but they are one and three in the division. So like the Bucks now have everything in front of them

where if they don't totally fuck up, we're going to be sitting here, they're going to have a home playoff game in January. Yeah. And Tom Brady might extend his career by switching to wide receiver. Yeah. Because that was a hell of a route that he ran.

Well, he ran two routes today. The first one, they put him out wide. Nobody covered him because, yeah, why would you cover Tom Brady? He cannot throw and catch the ball at the same time. Correct. X-wife pointed out to us. Yes.

He was out there on all by his loans. They did not guard him. So they went back to the well and they're like, okay, if you're not going to guard Tom, let's have playoff Lenny or Germany Lenny, who, whatever he goes by over in Europe, let's have Leonard Farnett just take a direct snap and throw a ball to him.

Tom fell down, slipped on the grass and then got called for tripping on the same place. It might have been, I'd say that might be the worst play of Tom Brady's career. Yeah. The dropped catch in the Super Bowl. Yeah. All of his worst moments are when he's playing wide receiver.

Yeah, yeah, right. Don't put him out wide. Yeah, put him out. I think Tom Brady is a good quarterback. Let's keep him there. I'm going to say, I agree. I concur. Doctor, I concur.

You've seen more Tom Brady plays than probably anybody. Would you say that that was top two worst Tom Brady moment? Yeah, Super Bowl was probably one. Yeah. That ball going through his hands. Max, what did you think about that one? I enjoyed that one. Okay.

So we got the hole. We got the hole. All sides on that one. I really did enjoy the German presentation. It was just something new. Yeah. You know, like it was new. When they sang Country Roads

and the entire stadium sang along, that was cool. It just confirms that song is just like one of the, it's Mount Rushmore, sing along songs. Also, all the pictures of the enormous beers that the Germans get to drink in their stadiums, that fucking ruled. Like they were just drinking personal pictures. And I was like, what the fuck?

I want one of these. They have to do that during Oktoberfest next year. Yeah. I agree. Something new, we've watched the same England game. It feels like a hundred times. That was cool. It was like, you know, just even the national anthem.

Oh, the 49ers just, wow, that sucks for anyone who has the 49ers because they just intentionally, I feel like went down twice. That was weird. That's tough. That was weird. And then they're going to kick a field goal so they could still lose this game.

That's very weird. One thing I enjoy seeing on TV, or I guess I just noticed it in the European games, is the Jumbotrons overseas are way smaller than they are here in the United States. They have a long ways to go. You have to keep up with American football stadiums. Like there's no place in Germany or in England

that has the Jerry World Jumbotron that covers the entire field. Yes. They have like a tasteful, small television. Yeah, nice. Let's actually watch the game. It's like when you go over to a more mature friends house and they don't have like a big TV room.

They've got like a sitting room, like a parlor. They don't, their life isn't revolved around sports. Yeah, they've got like a library. They take a book out. That's what I see when I see these German small little Jumbotrons that they have up in the corner. But it was just cool to see something new. Yeah, it was cool to see something new.

Also, special shout out to Devin White, who hasn't had the best season. He had the strip sack of Geno Smith that was basically changed the game because it was a 14 point swing. Seahawks were going in. I didn't realize this afterwards in the post game. He found out his father died like two hours

before he got on the plane, which is insane. Like to have to deal with that going over to Germany. So he was, yeah, I mean, that play kind of changed the outcome of the game because like I said, the Seahawks were going in for a touchdown and he gets the strip sack, the bucks go and score and make it a 21-3 game. It was, it was fun.

I was, and also the Seahawks, it was reported before the game, they're going to have a little talk with Geno. Maybe have them be the franchise quarterback. They're going to extend them? They said the report was they're going, they're planning on talking in the off season. Oh yeah, they said that they're not going to have

the conversation now, which is, I mean, I think that's probably the smart move with Geno because you are still waiting for, we've got a good body of evidence on who Geno Smith is and you keep waiting for that Geno Smith to show up again. But it's always, it's been just good Geno for a shockingly long amount of time. So I think the Seahawks are like everybody else.

They're like, let's get to the end of the season and make sure that you're still Geno Smith for the next month because I don't believe what I've been seeing really. Yes, yes, exactly. It's just, it was like, okay, cool. They're going to plan on having that. It's basically when, if you're like start dating someone and you're like, are we ready to have this talk?

Let's have this talk later. Let's go, you know what? Let's do Thanksgiving and Christmas time, then we'll have the talk. See how you get along with the family. Yeah, which usually means it's not going to work out because usually you don't even have to have the talk. You just know.

Yeah. But I'm rooting for Geno and the Seahawks, these crazy two kids to figure it out. Permission to do a little coward? Yes. He's like a waffle house. Geno Smith is like a waffle house. He's relatively inexpensive.

You go there and you're usually pleasantly surprised with what you get. You have an overall good encounter, but then sometimes somebody gets punched in the face. Yeah. That's kind of the Geno Smith experience. Yes, that is the Geno Smith experience to a tee and they don't pay the bill.

Yep. Yeah, that's the other part. Okay, next up, oh wait. So I wanted to actually say this real quick. Box, tell me how many wins they have on their schedule. Ready? At Browns. Win.

First Saints. Win. At Niners. Lost. Personal revenge game for Tom Brady. Well, and for Kyle. And for Kyle. I believe that at Browns game

was the Sean's first game back. No, he's the Texans member. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. They're gonna bury that game so deep. So deep. In the one PM time slot. They're probably gonna like. They're gonna start at 1.30.

Yeah, they might actually do a running clock. They might send it overseas and not announce it. Yeah. Okay, so that's two is versus the Bengals at home. Win. Okay, at the Cardinals. Win. Okay, versus the Panthers at home.

Win. At the Falcons. Lost. Okay, so based on that. Yeah, and they're extremely scientific. They're a 10-win team. Yeah. Which, it's crazy considering

how bad they've looked at times. But that does feel about right. 10-win team, going into the playoffs, home playoff game, probably gonna win that one. And then everyone's gonna be like, is Tom Brady gonna do this again? Jake, remind me that as much as I bet on the box this year, and then Justin Herbert just threw an interception game over.

Go down, go out. 49ers won by six. They just teased everyone with minus seven. Huge. Can't lose. Can't lose Parley just cashed again. That's a very weird sequence of events that happened at the end of that game with Kyle Shanahan.

Yeah. Why did he do that? Why would you not want to go up two scores? I think on third down, the running back tripped. Oh, okay. That would make sense. Yeah, it didn't look intentional. Because like, he tripped on his foot.

Two scores is a big fucking deal there. Yeah. Yeah, the play calling felt like they were not trying to score, but I don't know. Wait, what's the reminder? Reminder. Divisional round. No, yes, divisional round.

Go against the box. Okay. Okay. Because that feels like, doesn't it feel like PFT, they're gonna win their first game at home, and then everyone's gonna get whooped up. Been like, Tom Brady's gonna do it again.

He's, you know, this team, they've peaked at the right time. It's kind of like what happened last year. Yeah, a little bit. They are still limited, so let's just remember. I would say they're quite limited. Yes, so let's remember that fact so that we don't get duped and we don't sit here being like, what the hell, why'd we do this?

Let's just put in that reminder. Divisional round. Go against the box, because they're gonna win, and then we're all gonna say, oh man, this team is gonna win the Super Bowl. I don't wanna fall for it. Anything else from this game? Early games, do we have any left?

I'm not sure. I think we have. There's one in Mexico? I don't know if that's early, though. It wouldn't be, no. I'm done with them. I'm done with them. It's just, it's a lot of football.

And I love football. I do too, but it's just. It's my favorite thing in the world, but it also, I need like a couple hours sprinkled here and there at some point in the day to do like basic things like, to shower. Yeah, it goes Monday night football. Okay, nice, that will be fun.

But you know what I'm saying, like I just need, I don't ask for that much, Commissioner Goodell, but please just allow me an hour where I can brush my teeth and maybe put some body wash on my armpits. Right, right. That's all I need. I'll remain dedicated to your league in the game for the rest of the day, every single Sunday.

Just give me a moment where I can like take a crap. Or just do it, do it when college football stops being every weekend. Then, because it's really just the turnaround is always what gets me. Watching football all the way till Saturday night and you turn around and boom, football. It's very embarrassing also if you're like with family

that doesn't care for football that much. If you're like visiting somebody and you watch football all day Saturday and then you start again at like 9 30 in the morning on Sunday. Yeah. This is just all you do. Yep.

This is all I do. This is all I do. Oh, quickly about this game, the Niners. I mean, it does, this was a game the Niners sort of had to win because it was off a buy. They're four and four, the Seahawks lose. Now it feels like the Niners are ready to like turn the full corner

and start playing some good games in a row. Yeah. I mean, I think we're all expecting the Niners to be good because they have so much talent and when they're healthy, they should be able to beat almost every team in the NFC. Yes. And they play like a very unique style of football that's hard for other teams to game plan against.

And the Chargers, I don't know what to think about the Chargers anymore because I was very high on them going into last season. I'm sick of them. I know you're sick of them. I've been high on the Chargers for quite some time. I have an unpopular take about them. Okay.

I love their uniforms. I do. I don't know if their uniforms are actually conducive to winning though. Candy ass. They might be candy ass Jason. I love them. I love the powder blues.

They might be candy ass. But I remember a study was done a long time ago that showed that teams that had like aggressive color schemes tend to win on average more than teams that didn't across the major sports in America. I don't know. I don't know if they're candy ass. I think maybe it's time to delicately broach

having the conversation. Yes. Yes. I would agree. I'm ready for America to have that conversation. Okay. Next up. Lions 31 bears 30.

Congratulations. I mean, Justin Fields again. I'll start with the negative. That pick six was bad. It was very bad. It was a throw he shouldn't have made. He just kind of lofted it up in a spot in the field like you're on your own 20.

You throw it up. It's like no one's really kind of there. And that was actually the first pick six that the Lions had in 60 games. Do you know how many games is 60 games? It's a lot of games. It's a ton, yeah. How many games is 60 games?

That's how many, how many years? That's like four seasons? Four and a half years that they have not had a pick six. That's wild. So that was bad. The answer was great. He had another insane run. He's the first quarterback in history

to have two 60 plus yard rushing TDs in one season. I was just gonna say. He's the first quarterback that I've seen that looks that cool when he runs with a ball. It's crazy. 310 yards total, like rushing in and passing, four touchdowns, that pick that was catastrophic. He also injured a Lions player

by just running them over in the end zone. He's big. So here's where I'm gonna be honest though. I would have preferred the Bears to win that game because that was a game that Justin Fields with the pick six and then also the end, you know, I wanted to see him drive. I wanted to see them drive down the field. They didn't drive.

I can be sold. I think this is where I'm at, like in terms of the tank and everything. I was happy with the losses for last few weeks. Justin Fields has been looking phenomenal. He looked phenomenal again today. Like I can't wait until he has actual real like crazy talent around him if they ever find him a Justin Jefferson

or Jamar Chase or Jalen Waddle or any of these guys. But I do kind of want to win some football games. Every now and then, just sprinkling a win here or there for morale and also so that we'd be like, he can win, you know, like he can close out a game. He can go on a big drive to end a game kind of thing. You don't want him to get used to losing. Right. You don't want him to expect to lose.

So that's where I'm at mentally. But again, so it's so much fun watching him play. He is very fun to watch. The spin zone on this would be, he did bounce back after the pick six. He took them on a touchdown drive and it was the kicker that fucked it up. Yeah, like kicker.

Taros Santos missed the extra point. He missed the extra point. So the fact that it ended up the way it did is, yeah, it's not great that he threw that pick six because those points did contribute to the loss. But on the other hand, like he did come back and he wiped that from his memory and was able to come down

and lead them to what could have been a win. I also, I have a report from someone at the game who was very close to the game, possibly even sideline passes, possibly even field passes on the field. I'm not gonna say who. I don't wanna reveal my sources, but he said he's very, very, very fast.

Wow. How many varies? Three. Very, very, very fast. Is that Tom Farnelli? No, that was against him on the field. On the field. Maybe shared the field.

But I'm not saying I said too much. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, I know. Very, very, very fast. I maybe asked him to reach out and tell me how fast. Tom Kennedy. Yes, Tom. It was maybe someone who was on the show this week and I said, please text me after telling me how fast he is.

And he did. This person, close friend of ours, standup guy came through with my request and said he is very, very, very fast. You know what's fun to do is to look at the last four weeks that Justin Fields has played football. It's crazy.

And then extrapolate that onto a season. And just imagine what it would be like. Insane. It's a game. So in the last four weeks, he's had 467 rush yards, five rush touchdowns, and eight passing touchdowns.

So you could like multiply that. Let's just say multiply it by four. He'd basically have almost a 2,000 yard rushing season as a quarterback. He'd have 32 passing touchdowns and then he would have 20 rushing touchdowns. It's crazy. And that's on the low side.

If you were to take that and put it onto a full season. And his, you know, the progression that I see is that his confidence in the pocket is growing. His elusiveness in the pocket is growing. Where it felt like for last year in the first part of this year,

it's like, they basically said just stay in the pocket all the time. Now he's able to like, guys just can't get him down. That touchdown that he ran where he ran over the Lions defender, he was basically down, but his legs are so fucking strong that they couldn't actually bring him to the ground.

He spun out of it. So all these things are so much fun to watch. I'm just, I want to win one or two. Just one or two. One or two. That last play of the game where he got, he eventually got sacked after like the fourth guy got to him.

That was even fun to watch. Yeah. How he shrugged off the first three guys and then started walking with another guy that was actively tackling him. Yeah. It was, it's very cool to watch that. And shout out to Aiden Hutchison who had an awesome,

he was one of the best plays that I've seen from a defensive lineman in a long time where he just, he kind of did a LeVar leap type thing where he jumped over, I think he jumped like over the quarterback, grabbed the shoulder pads from the running back that just got the hand off and just threw him down onto the ground.

Yeah. It was incredible. It's awesome watching him play. It was, he was like, his stats might not have been incredible today but he was all over every play. Like he was in every play. Jake, can you go grab me a charger?

I'm, my computer's about to die. I'm fucking idiot. Or if we, or if we have one right there. But so I think that's my fair assessment not to belabor the point, but it's, I'm very excited. There's no, again, he's like, he's now answered the bell, whatever it is, four weeks in a row.

We're, it's not a fluke. I, it's not a fluke. It's becoming, this is what he is. I can't wait to see some more top end talent around him because he is kind of carrying everything right now. Like he has to, he has to basically be the offense. And yeah, I just would, every now and then, let's just win a game.

It's like, Hey, we, we completed the task at hand of not just awesome plays, like we won the game. And that's defense too. That's special teams. That's, that's more like Matt, that's actually more about Matt Eberfluss as a coach because they had a bunch of penalties today. You know, missed sexual points, sloppy football, like out.

Justin Fields can't do it all. Maybe he can though. I actually, I threw this out there while we were watching the game. I wouldn't hate it. I wouldn't hate to see him return upon. Yeah, or he could actually probably play wide receiver. Yeah.

I just, I know that that's a very dangerous thing and stupid thing. Maybe just have a package in case we ever get in a spot where like a team has to punt to the bears with like 15 seconds left. I wouldn't hate to see Justin Fields return. You just want to see him with the ball. Every time.

I just want him always with the ball. When he has a ball, then you're like something good might happen. Something cool is going to happen. Yeah, it's always going to be a good thing. He also has more rushing touchdowns by himself than the Packers, Colds, Texans, Commanders, Bucks and Broncos this season.

That's crazy. Yeah. And he, the bears are the, this is the fifth straight game. They've rushed for over 200 yards. The last time that was done was the 1976 Steelers. That's pretty wild. Yeah.

So they're just, they credit to the coaching staff to at least know what your strength is and just do it. And it is funny because the offensive line is not a good pass blocking offensive line, but they're very good at run block. Did you change your mind on whether or not he was the guy? Did you ever say,

did you find yourself saying last year? You thought it though. Oh, last year? Yeah, yeah. Oh no, last year he wasn't the guy. Yeah, yeah, but you know what I'm saying? Like saying that somebody's the guy, there's a lot of future hopes and dreams that go along

with that. Were you like completely out on him last year? Cause I don't know if you said out loud that you're out. No, no, no. But it's just a nice reminder that every now and again, you might want to give a kid like more than a year. More chances, yeah. The Steelers Monday football game that I went to,

where he almost brought them back, gave me basically the hope for the entire off season. And then the way this season started, I started to have some doubts. I'll be fully transparent. I think I looked at some draft, you know, boards for next year that's hand up. And then they started using him correctly.

And it's, since that point, there has been no waiver. Like the pick six was bad. Yep. Our good friend, Tom Fresneli actually texted me. He said, sometimes you look like Justin Fields, sometimes you look like Aaron Rodgers. You look like Aaron Rodgers in that pick six. So that's just what it is, right?

And then we should say for the Lions, first road win for Dan Campbell, good win for them. They, you know, they are in a spot where they're trying to get some wins together so that they can like go in the right direction. And they, you know, they made less mistakes than the Bears. I think this is the right direction move.

Yeah. For the Lions. I think if Dan Campbell can get up to like five or six wins, how many do they have now? Three. They've got three. Both teams are three wins. Yeah.

So I think if the Lions can end their season with six wins, that's what you want. That's really all you, like if you had told them two years ago, that's what you would have. Be like, okay. Yeah. I can work with that. And then you just can't have a, for both teams,

both teams are in a similar spot where if you get to like six wins, you just can't have the backwards slide next year. Yeah. You got to, you got to keep moving forward. That's going to be tough for Dan. Right. Because Dan is really good at,

at like squeezing every last bit of emotion out of guys that aren't very good. When it comes with expectations, that's going to be a different conversation that he's going to be having. So yeah, it was his first road win. And, oh yeah. Justin Fields also promised that the pick six

will never happen again for the rest of his career. I appreciate that. He said that. So mark that one down. I appreciate that. I promise for the rest of my career that will never happen again. I mean, what's better than a promise?

You can't, you can't ask for anything besides that. He's not going to do it. Well, unless. So we're good. But what if he breaks a promise to you? That is going to hurt. Material change. That's going to hurt.

What was that kid's name? Sir Yot. Oh, Abraham. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Material change. What did he report? I can't even remember. It was Kawhi.

I think it was Kawhi to the Lakers. Yeah. There was a material change. Material change. It's a great spin zone. I didn't know anything. Yeah. So if that happens,

Justin just take this one for free, material change. And look, I, so on Sunday nights, after we record the show, I just go and just read like Justin, Justin Fields pornography and just go to bed with a smile on my face. So I just read it out loud for right now for everyone. Justin Fields has seven carries

where he has reached over 20 miles per hour. That is the most in the NFL. It's like a car. Yeah. He goes as fast as a car. He goes, it's effortless. He was just effortlessly going faster than everyone. Okay, next game.

Cause I know that people don't want to hear me gush. Oh, I'll just say it right now because maybe there's some people listening that I don't know if they too, I don't know where the sickos and perverts listen to this show, but I have a fun announcement coming on Tuesday at 9 a.m. So you should listen for that.

That is an announcement coming 9 a.m. Tuesday. Something I've been working on for a very long time. Fun announcement, 9 a.m. Tuesday. Chief's Jaguars, Chief's Jaguars, Chief's 27, Jaguar's 17. I don't really have much to say about this game other than the Jaguars. If you want, if you look at the score and you're like,

oh, the Jaguars kind of kept in it. They had three, they were, they wanted to turn over battle three to nothing. They started the game with an onside kick that they recovered and they still lost by 10 and there wasn't a single second where I thought the Chiefs were gonna lose. Yeah, no, they were never in contingent.

It was a fierce battle between the Jaguars and the point spread though. Yeah. Well, you looked like it was gonna happen. And then they jagged it up and they missed some kicks and it was, and the Jags had everything go their way. Like imagine going into Arrowhead and being like, will you recover an onside kick to start the game and you get three turnovers to zero,

you're gonna be in this game, no. It would have been nice if the refs called at least one penalty against the Chiefs. Yeah. The Chiefs didn't have it. They had zero. Zero penalty to them. That's incredible. Very, very rare. That's a well coached team. Very rare that that happened.

Well coached team. Well, it's funny you say that because I did look up what teams most recently had zero penalties the last two before these Chiefs were the Green Bay Packers. Oh. Another very well coached team. Matt LeForest is a good coach, I've never said he isn't. Very good coach. So yeah, there were, there was a moment in this game

where I put a mental pin in it because I'm like, this is something that you can say to make yourself sound really smart when you're watching a football game. If you're like amongst friends, it's a rule that people forget frequently, which is when you start, if you're returning a punt and the other team touches it at all,

you can then pick that ball up and nothing bad can happen to you. Yes. Yes. It's a free play. If you pick it up and you start running with it and you fumble, doesn't matter. You still get the ball back. And so immediately when that happened, it looked like the Jaguars recovered it for a touchdown,

but then cooler heads in the room were like, no, no, no. Don't worry. No, no, this is a free play. That's another, another mark of a well coached team picked out like Belichick's players would always do that. If somebody touched it, pick it up and try to run it back. Nothing bad happens. No, no, like having those little random rules to be the smartest guy in the room or the bar or your house,

there's no better feeling in the world. Like that is a peak. There's very little to look forward to as you get older in life, but knowing the obscure sports rule that your, your friends or people, your coworkers, whatever, don't remember, you're the king for that moment. Those, those moments are, are just like pure Nirvana.

Yes. Cause you just tell people and they're like, Oh, that's interesting. I didn't even know that. Yeah. It's like, yeah. Jake had that. Jake, what was the one you said to me on, uh, Oh, the, the flop in college basketball. Yeah. New rule. If you're called for flopping, it's automatic technical. Yeah. In college.

Oh, wow. That's awesome. Jake dropped that on me and I was like, jam. Technical. So I'll be taking that with me. Yeah. Last year it was a warning and then second violation was a technical. Now it's just automatic. Yeah. I like that rule change. That's good. Brad Davidson graduated the perfect time.

Let's keep soccer and soccer. Yeah. Uh, but yeah, the chiefs, this is one of those games where it's like, we under appreciate Patrick Mahomes because I was thinking about it. There's been a lot of talk about MVP, Josh Allen, uh, Jalen Hertz, Tua, a lot of Tua talk, tons of Tua talk. Are you at all concerned with the fact that if Tua does end up,

you know, having stats that would lend himself to being an MVP, that's probably because Tyreek Hill has like, we'll get to that. We'll get to that later. We'll get to that later when we talk about their, uh, their game today, but I just looked it up because I was like, oh, I wonder, you know, what they said, oh yeah, Patrick Mahomes is leading the league in touchdowns and yards and, uh, is having another season where he's probably going to, I don't know what game the chiefs are on,

but he's probably going to end up with like 45 touchdowns. Yeah. He's great. He's just incredible. He's still just really, really great at everything that he does. And at some point we get bored with greatness and we look for something else to be the new greater thing. So that's like more exciting coming up. No, he's, he's really, really great. He, he has made greatness like feel very average. Boring because he's so good all the time today.

He went for 331 in four touchdowns and I wouldn't have said, oh yeah, Patrick Mahomes lit it up. It's just, no, that was regular Patrick Mahomes. So much so, um, I, I had, uh, Evan, one of our stats guys, look it up. One in every six games that Patrick Mahomes plays, he has 300 pass yards in four touchdowns. Jesus Christ. So it is, it is almost like very routine. Patrick Mahomes in regular season games throws for 300 yards, 50% of the time. That's so awesome.

I just imagine having that as your quarterback and that's what's expected. He's expected to throw 300 and like three touchdowns every time. It would just be so great to be a chiefs fan knowing that for the next 10 years, you can walk around with, with an earned sense of superiority to anybody else. Yeah. Just be like, fuck you. I, I cheer for Patrick Mahomes. Yeah. I get to watch Patrick Mahomes every week. He started 72 regular season games in 12 of them. He's gone 304 touchdowns. Like it just happens, you know, it's just every, every month he does this.

Yeah. And it was just a, it was a totally average, exceptional day. Yeah. It was great. He has made greatness boring, which is, it's tough. I want to get bored by greatness. I want to be so accustomed to greatness that I take it for granted. That'd be awesome. Imagine if I picked like 75% in the NFL, just not even. I was like, Oh yeah, here are my picks.

Three out of four are going to win. It'd be so sick to just like not even care about being great. Yeah. Fun stat about the Jaguars. This is their fifth game with the passer rating over a hundred this season for Trevor Lawrence. Their all time record is seven. So Trevor Lawrence is way on pace. Nice. To have the best season of all time by a Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback. And he wasn't bad today.

Yeah. The chiefs are better. Wasn't, wasn't great. He wasn't great. He wasn't, but he wasn't going to win this game. Yeah. Right. Yeah. It wasn't, I just never thought this game was never in doubt. Cadarius Tony fits right into just being another fast dude that is going to burn people. I think he might be like 50% too weird. He's, I think he's the weirdest guy.

He is weird, but he's like really weird, but he's very fast. And they use that. You could already tell Andy Reed is just so happy to have a new toy because he was running the ball, you know, some, some that the touchdown pass. Cadarius Tony was the most open person I've ever seen in my life. He was the most open player in the NFL for the last seven years, I think. They actually keep track of their shit. Yeah. You know, when people post those like dots to your timeline on Twitter,

yeah, show where the players are, except their dots. Yeah. They did that. And they measure the distance between those dots. He was open by like 21 yards. Mike Evans, when he dropped that ball, that was, yeah, he was more open than that. Probably more open than Mike Evans at that point. Yeah. And you know that with Andy Reed, you can tell when he really starts to love a guy because he'll start incorporating them into his shovel pass game.

Yep. Like the interior passes. That's coming next for Tony. Once, once he fits into that sort of degree, then like you see Travis Kelsen, like Tyreek Hill was getting all those different iterations of the inside shovel pass around the goal line, that's going to be once, you know, that's when it's real between Andy and Tony. OK, Chris Jones is a monster. That was my last note.

He just is the the chiefs have that if you have one guy who's just elite on your defense, you can maybe sometimes get by with maybe not having the best defense overall, because he had, I think it was maybe a third down or fourth down where he tripped up. Trevor Lawrence just blew up the whole play. Recurring guest. Yeah. Recurring guest. He was actually a very funny guy.

He was. I would like to have him back on. Also, with the Jaguars, they have the most first downs in the NFL. Whoa. The league in first downs. Congrats to them. Which is I think that's that's a good stat, right? Moving the chain. You would like that? Hang the banner up.

Yeah. Most first down. Most first downs. Hang it. But you could say like you could make the argument like, oh, I'm a really great lover because I've got more first dates than everybody. Yeah. Which is like, you're not really closing deals. You're just slowly moving things.

Yeah. No, you're moving the chains. Yeah. Moving the chains counts. Getting first downs is important. What you do after is also important. But getting first downs is important. First step. The Chiefs probably like are in the bottom tier of the NFL. Because they just score touchdowns.

Because they just get 30 yard plays. Yeah, right. They don't use the entire field. Right. OK, let's do a couple ads and then we got four more early games and then we'll get to the afternoons. Yeah, before we get to more NFL, it's brought to you by Game Time. Jake, Jake, Jake.

Wait, Jake, what game did you go to most recently using Game Time? Jets Dolphins. What was the bathroom situation like there? It was fine. OK. Except the post game was not. The two of hands. Oh, yeah, that stuff.

Well, if you want to be like Jake and go to the. Oh, no, Hank's going to. Hank, you got to go to the bathroom. Check in on my god, Jake. Make sure he's good. Oh, you can hold it for him? Nice. It's like when girls go to the bathroom together.

They're definitely talking about us for sure. Max, you going to go to any game soon? Yeah, six years. I'm nice. I'm 50 percent. I might go to the Eagles Commanders game tomorrow. No, yeah, I might. I don't know.

I don't know. I hardly ever get to see them play in person because why? But I might go. And if I go, I'm going to use Game Time. Game Time is a ticking app that makes it easier than ever to score last minute tickets to sports, concerts and shows. And they guarantee the lowest price. They've got the best deals.

It's super easy to use. I actually love using the Game Time app. It's very convenient. It's very intuitive. It's very, very, very simple to use. If you're going to a game with a parent or somebody that's not as technologically savvy as you might be, guess what? Game Time is super easy for them, too.

It's such a good app. Even parents can do it. We've been using Game Time all year. We went to a bunch of games. What's the baseball games, concerts, everything? Game Time is getting us in the door. They're the official ticketing app of Barstool Sports. You can download the Game Time app and then go to the account tab to create a

There's a couple that are not so great, but we'll hit them. Steelers, 20, Saints, 10. Yep. I don't really know Mike Tomlin.

Mike Tomlin has now beaten every team in the NFL besides the Steelers. Yeah. So I saw that stat and I would actually throw a flag on that because I feel like Mike Tomlin has beaten the Steelers every year when he would play his own defense against Tom Brady. Remember that when he had that string where Tom Brady was like, it was like crazy how every every year Tom Brady would play the Steelers. He'd throw for four touchdowns.

They beat him and like, will anyone tell Mike Tomlin to stop playing this exact defense that Tom Brady ruins every time? So I'm going to count Mike Tomlin is beating the Steelers. All right, so he's done it all. He's beaten every team. Congratulations, Mike. The only note I had on this game was that the Steelers are 2 and 0 in games where the pigeons invade the field and just kind of hang out down there

for a couple of hours. It's like early season Wrigley. Yes, when they're just birds sitting in the outfield. Just completely oblivious to the fact that there's an NFL game going on around them. So yeah, they beat the Bucks during a pigeon game. Now, this is the second pigeon game of the year for them. So that's my deep Saber metrics. It was a pretty boring game.

It was a boring game. George Pickens is I'm putting him in like, I don't I'm not going to say Debo Samuel territory yet, but I am saying that he's the type of physical guy that I'm like a little bit afraid of when I watch him run with the football. I think there's going to be a prediction. I think maybe next year, I'll call it the Steelers, maybe a Monday night football game, Sunday night football game you can pick Thursday even. We're going to have a nice one on one with Heinz Warden and George Pickens

being like past the torch of blocking wide receivers in Pittsburgh. And just be like, this is what I do. Like you play like me and it will be a yinzer fest. TJ Watt is incredible. He's back. The stats are also incredible since 2020 in the regular season. The Steelers are 23, eight and one when he plays, giving up 20 points a game. And when he doesn't, they're one in nine, giving up 25 points a game.

So he makes a big difference. He didn't get a sack today, but every play he was double teamed and everyone else got to the quarterback. The Steelers had a nice running game for the first time in what feels like forever. And then the only other point I had is Dennis Allen. You fucking dick. I'm so sick of watching Andy Dalton. Nice guy play quarterback.

You have a bad football team. You are two and six. There is nothing going on with this season. Why aren't you at least you have option one? Taysome Hill, fun, maybe not the future, but fun. Option two, figure out if James Winston could be the future. Let him play. You know who's not the future?

Very nice guy, Andy Dalton. Like it just he's he probably can be in the league for another five years being a backup because he seems like the nicest guy in the world. And he can play competent football. I just don't understand why you have Andy Dalton playing quarterback on a team that's going absolutely nowhere when you have a guy, James Winston, who could have upside like we still don't really know the full James thing. Like if he's had flashes since leaving Tampa Bay, where he's looked really good,

stopping a dickhead put in James Winston or will settle for Taysome Hill. We'll meet you halfway with Taysome Hill. Well, Sean Payton's got to be watching this team and being like, this this sucks. Like, fuck you. He is so boring. He brought in fun players because Sean Payton is a fun coach. I feel like Sean Payton had to have some say in who the next coach was going to be. Right. He probably gave them some advice.

Dennis, that was a good defensive coach. But dude, defensive coach. But like this it is it's objectively sad to watch Andy Dalton play football because, OK, best case scenario. He'll have a couple of good games here and there. He'll sprinkle it. Cool. You win five. Yes. But there's no point in winning five games in the NFL

if your quarterback is above the age of 30. Oh, wait. But no, no, no, PFT. There is a point in winning five games because you get a better first round draft pick. Oh, wait. Oh, wait. The Saints don't have a first round draft pick. Like, what are you doing? Saints, what are you in?

Unless you tell me James Winston is still very injured, which, OK, that's fine. But why is he in full uniform then? Again, we want James will meet you halfway with Taysum. Give me. Yeah, give me both. Give me both at the same time on the field. Give me all three of them on the field at the same time. Do the Saints play any more Monday night football games or Thursday night football games?

I have to watch any Dalton. Nice guy. Very nice guy. Somebody asked me about about when we 13 at Tampa. Oh, what? Thursday or Monday? Monday night. If this not Andy, not Monday night, Andy. Remember, he's like, what is he? Like, six and 20.

I got to keep my composure because, again, I'm not a very nice guy. Andy, if you're listening, congrats on the horn frogs. Look like they might even win the big 12. You look you look great now. Like, you know, that is fantastic. Yeah, you you're shocking everyone. You get a beautiful family. You're a very nice guy.

If I have to watch Andy Dalton in prime time, I'm going to jump in front of a bus. I don't know if we put that on YouTube. But I want I and I will watch a bus. What? You get it getting run over by a bus. Yeah, for for PMT. That would you subscribe. You subscribe to the YouTube.

Watch on Thursday. If I have to watch Monday football with Andy Dalton, I'm going to jump in front of a bus. I it's just I can't do it. And I love Monday football. It's my favorite night of the week. So one game we get to watch where we don't have to talk about right after.

I don't want to watch Andy Dalton. Nice guy. Play football anymore. I don't. I want to watch Andy Dalton play in a random Andy Dalton start because the starter gets hurt and we get to watch him for one week. And it's like a nostalgia throwback and he's awesome. And we're like, that was cool.

Remember when he was awesome for the Bengals? I don't want to watch him week to week anymore. Yeah, I do think that sometimes we forget what Andy Dalton was able to do with the Bengals. Yeah, him and Marvin. What's his name? Lewis, Marvin Lewis, got you. Him and Marvin Lewis did some crazy shit with the Bengals

that we take for granted because, yeah, OK, the Bengals got to the Super Bowl last year. The Bengals were like dog shit for about 45 years. Yeah, really bad. I think they made the playoffs. Well, they had Carson Palmer and Kimo Vano on O'Hoffen. Yeah, that one year and Carson got rolled up on. Yep.

And they had Ocho Sinko and TJ Huzmajada. Yeah, that was a great team, too. Yeah. Who's your mama? Who's your mama? And they've just been a bad team mostly. And then Marvin Lewis and Andy Dalton got them to the playoffs like over 50 percent of the time. They never won. Incredible. A playoff game.

No, but they got they got they got that. You got you got an extra week of rooting for your Bengals. Yes, Bengals fans. Yes. So, yeah, it is it's a bummer watching Andy play. He just makes he's one of those like sad. He's like a sad, boring quarterback. You're two and six. You're going nowhere. Stop.

Yeah, stop. Just fucking stop. Dennis Allen, you're torturing us. All right. I think it's actually just he's such a nice guy. And he don't because this happened with the Bears, too. When he was with the Bears and he was like he bought a house and he was like, yeah, I'm going to be like, I'm pretty sure Ryan Pace is like he went in being like Andy Dalton, like we're going to see how it goes.

And Andy Dalton was so nice. He's like, you know, you're the starter. Yeah. And you're just going to start and you're just going to be the starter. He he must be a real gym. And actually, he was another guy that was in the back of the van on the original Vanny Woodhead. Yes. The first quarterback that we interviewed, I think. Yeah. Current starting quarterback. Very nice guy.

OK, Giants Texans, Giants 24 Texans 16. The Giants are seven in two. Let's go. It's crazy. I looked at their schedule. I think they're going to win 10 games, maybe even 11. Like when you're seven and two, you're this, we're almost at Thanksgiving. It would take a lot of fuck ups to not make the playoffs at this point and finish with a pretty good record.

They're going to win. No, they're going to win 10 games. Yeah. If they split with the commanders, they beat like the Lions and the Colts and the Eagles in week 18, when the Eagles are playing for nothing. Undefiggled. Yeah, they're there. The Giants are going to win 10 or 11 games. Be ready for that. It's crazy. They're at seven and two. This wasn't a very exciting game.

Daniel Jones, another like sign of just the passer rating makes no sense to me. He had a 153.3 pass rating, which I think is like three away from a. I think it's there's 156. I can never keep track of all that. Why is it? Why is it a hundred? It's different in college, too. So that's what ESPN did when they made their QBR rating, where they just they just invented stats that would come together. That would equal a hundred if you played really well.

Right. So he was a smart. That's where people just give me round numbers to understand. What is it? 158.3? That's the dumbest thing ever. So he had a hundred fifty three point three and he was 13 for 17 for a hundred ninety seven yards and two touchdowns. Yeah, almost perfect. Makes no sense. Seventy eight times.

Seventy seventy eight times. So that the stat is dumb. That's a dumb stat. Throw that stat out. Done. We need to create our own. And it should just be zero to one. Yeah, like maybe ball scale. You get one. Five balls. You get one.

It's it's binary. It's like, were you good? Yeah. OK, you get a one. Yeah. Perfect rating. Yeah. If you won and just anybody. It's just we're replacing wins and losses. Yeah, you become a two if you win a Super Bowl. Yeah, there you go. Yeah, there it is. So huge news for the Giants.

Big come up for the Giants. Odell has narrowed down his list of teams that he wants to play for to the Chiefs, the Rams, the Cowboys, the Bills and the Giants. The Rams are out. The Rams are probably out. Now, if you're the Giants, do you want Odell back? I feel like you don't want Odell back, right?

So I've heard through the grape find I have no real sources that he's going to sign with the Cowboys and then in the offseason signed back with the Giants. Well, I mean, that's that's pretty much what Michael Irvin alluded to. Yeah, was that he would be a Cowboys and then come back to the Giants. I just don't why why would you want him if you're a Giants fan? Like he he would help the team. He you have no one. That's like we were we sitting with Giants fans today.

They were like Darius Slayton is the worst fucking wide receiver ever. And then he ripped off like a 70 yard touchdown. They're like, yes, he's awesome. But you know, they're they're in that point of the season with their wide receiver. You know what Odell does when he brings the table. He he likes playing with great quarterbacks. Yeah, Daniel Jones. That's the nicest thing. And again, 153.3 pft.

He really Odell really loves playing with great quarterbacks. 153.3. Yeah. That was his QB rating today. I just feel like he'd come in and just boat picture all over again. Yeah. Yeah, probably. Saquon had a throwback game. Ran the ball 35 times. Good. 35 times for 152 yards.

It just made it just triggered memories in my head. So I went and looked it up. The Larry Johnson 2006 year where he ran for 416 carries. Herm Edwards basically abused Larry Johnson. It was it was so crazy. And then Jamal Anderson 1998 with 410. I just looked it up because I was curious. The last six years combined,

the leading rusher in the NFL has averaged 326 carries. So Larry Johnson almost had a hundred more that one year in 2006. It was an awesome year, though. It was an awesome very cool. He was crazy, but he had a game where he had 39 carries. Like I just saw the sequel at 35 carries. Like what the fuck? That doesn't happen anymore.

No, shout out to Brian Dable. His daughter wanted a win for her birthday. That's all she wanted her birthday today. I think it was her birthday today. Kind of upstaging Frank. Yeah, a little bit. So Brian got her a win and then just dedicated the game to his daughter. Nice. I thought that was kind of cool.

Drew Brees would never do something. No, never to his daughter. Never. He'd be like, my birth, my son's birthday is in June. Yeah, why are you so? We'll just give this to him half birthday. She probably wants like a new Barbie. I'll get her Barbie. There was not allowed to come to the games.

Drew Brees was doing something on TV the other day. Oh, he was a dude perfect, I think. And he had like three of his sons next to him. And then his daughter was like off camera. It's the funniest running bit. I don't know. Like you got to include her at some point just because you know that I'm going to see it unless he's being a troll.

And that would be fun. That would be very funny. He was just getting me to troll all of us. Yep. Okay, let's let's keep it moving. The first place Miami Dolphins, the first place Miami Dolphins, their first place in the AFC East, Dolphins 39, Brown 17, an absolute whomping, it was just like Browns come out first, first, first drive

touchdown. You're like, ooh, Browns are live today. I think they went like punt turnover on downs, fumble punt. And then they got the ball back in the second half and it was 24 percent. And I was just like, yeah, this game is over. It just happened. The Dolphins just happened very fast sometimes.

Yes. You like look away and you look back and Jalen Waddle has two touchdowns. Yeah, they're such a fun offense. Shout out Alec Ingold, recurring guest, low man trophy winner, had a nice little 30 yard. It was like a 30 yard touchdown. Yeah, 44 yards on four catches today. Yeah, it was sick.

And there's a fun little stat here from Tim Reynolds said the last time the Dolphins were 73 was 2001. Okay. That's 24 starting quarterbacks ago. Eight head coaches, seven stadium names ago. Whoa. The heat had zero titles. LeBron was in high school.

The iPod just came out. The iPhone was still six years away. Tua was three. Mike McDaniel was a freshman and Tom Brady was in his first year in the NFL. That's the last time that the Dolphins were this good. That's crazy. That's crazy. Tua was good today.

This shows. Yeah, I mean, listen, listen, it's starting, it's starting, but this just proves the quarterback rating thing is so stupid. He had a quarterback rating 135. So almost 20 points less than Daniel Jones. He was 25 for 32, 285, three touchdowns and zero interceptions. It's a pretty good day.

Makes no sense. He also, I'm not. Listen, if I had a vote, I would vote for Tua, but I don't have a vote. But in place of a vote, I'll just say that he threw it to eight different guys today for the, all the Tyree does it all guys. He threw it's eight different receivers and the leading receiver only had 66 yards Jalen Waddle. Yeah, he spread it around.

He spread it around to everyone. He hit everyone. He looked great. Tua MVP. He had a couple of nice throws. Tua Naan has grown stronger. There was a guy in the stands with the full printed out list of people who have crossed Tua, expect us, Tua MVP.

And I actually like love him now. I know that it started as a troll, but then I ended up betting on him to win MVP. And I am like in love with Tua. And I think he's very, very good. I mean, he's very easy to root for. He's a very nice guy. And he throws a very catchable ball. He does.

And he's, he's left-handed, which some would say makes you look like a witch. But when you play it back to me and he's right-handed, then I think he's a great quarterback. That's, that's how simple my brain is. And, and Tua has played, obviously he missed what, two games? No. He got pulled, not pulled. He missed the middle of the Bengals and then he missed the Jets and the, there's one more.

Yeah. So he has played, he hasn't played a full season. He's, he's now 18 touchdowns, three interceptions. And he's, he's on fire over 2,000 yards, Tua MVP. Tell everyone. Did you guys see the punter Thomas Morse that he pretended to fall asleep on the sideline? Yeah. Cause they didn't punt.

They didn't punt. I think it was the first time they didn't punt since like 1988. Was it? No. I have it right here. No punts, no sacks. Uh, to December 28th, 2003. Okay.

All right. It wasn't that long ago. I think there was a stat. It was something about like he's starting to, is starting to put up like, you know, Dan Marino's all-time quarterback. He's starting to put up games where it's like, this hasn't happened since then. And they have two total punts in the last three games, the first time in team history, the offense opponent, two times or less than three games.

And that's, that's why I'm rooting for Tua more than anything to win a Super Bowl because it would really piss Dan Marino off. Yeah. Oh man. He would instantly become the best quarterback in the history of the Miami Dolphins. Easily. Uh, over Dan Marino. He's a two.

Dan Marino's a one. Yeah, he's a one. He's just one guy. He's not our system. Yeah, we have a system now. Um, not to toot our own horn. Sometimes we get something right. A lot of times we get things wrong, but I do feel very strong about our nice little

zag take when they, on the trade deadline, when they added Bradley Chubb, who's a phenomenal pass rusher, and we were like, Jeff Wilson is actually the big coup, uh, grab because Jeff Wilson just knows how to run in Kyle Shanahan's offense. He had 119 yards today and he just, he knows how to do it. And it's like, that was such a genius pickup by the Dolphins and Chris Greer to be like, Hey, this guy can like completely change our running game because he knows exactly how to do it. Yeah.

And he was great today. Um, the browns suck. And the brown stink, there's one, the kicking issues for the dolphins. They haven't really mattered that much to them, but they could. This could be like the Cody Parky. This is the moment where like you, you're thinking, you should think about what happened today and maybe think about getting somebody else involved in your kicking game. Jake, I just, I don't want to see you hurt.

And this is, well, Jake, he's on flat. I was just thinking of this. This is their blinking light that, that we're not making a big deal about right now. It's like a master caution light is going off in the corner. It's going to create problems for you down the road when you're playing in serious games that matter because that guy stinks. He stinks. I was just thinking of a world where a double joint happened in the playoff game

and obviously Frank is a big dolphin fan. He would die. He would have a heart attack and die. They wanted his birthday, but if that happened, it would be so bad. That would be unfortunate. It would be so bad. And I'd have no choice but to make a lot of jokes about it. Cause he's, I think he's written a whole album of songs about the double

joint. Yeah. I think Frank would probably just hold his breath until he died. It would be happened. Yeah. But let's, let's knock on board that that doesn't happen. I sure hope not. The Browns, Browns think Kevin Stefansky is getting into coach speak after

games. So he's, he's done the, he's done the like it's on me thing before he's done the, I got to take a long look in the mirror thing today. He said it's on all of us. Oh, everybody needs to do a better job, but he's including himself. Okay, that's nice. But it's just another way of coach Stefansky being like, I have no idea what the fuck is going on.

And, and let me just, you know, this is a meatball take. I'm just going to say it. He was wearing just a t-shirt today. Put a collar on. Yeah. Just do something. But maybe, maybe that's a hoodie or just, you know, zip up something. Just you, you haven't earned just a t-shirt.

They need to play the, the Bengals every week. Yeah. That's what they need to do. Yeah. The vibes were high going into the bye week for the Browns. And then they just stink again. And Deshaun Watson's coming back. He's allowed to practice with the team this week.

So you just kind of, if you're a Browns fan, you just hope that, uh, you win all your games in December with Sean Watson and then all off season, you can think about that. Yeah. Yeah. That'd be nice. Uh, okay. Next up Titans Broncos.

This was the game we decided, uh, with seven games on six TVs. We didn't have this one on, on TV. So apologies if any of our takes are wrong, but the fact that the game started with nine straight punts kind of solidified, we made the right choice. Uh, Ryan Tannehill's back and that was it. The Titans are six and oh, when Derek Henry catches a pass and their own three when he doesn't have a single reception, first, first play of the game. First play of the game.

Raves just fucking throw it to Derek Henry. Done. You ensure yourself of an automatic win. I love that. When it, whenever, uh, I do think running the football is important, but when people are like, yeah, when they rush for this, it's like, well, if they have the lead, they're probably rushing. So yeah, no, I don't, I don't like to go that dot that deep.

Yeah, statistics. Yeah. Just tell me how, tell me what to do to win and I'll do it. Uh, Randy Bullock wasn't healthy. I guess he injured himself in warmups. Randy, come on, man. Like we tried to be nice to you. Yeah.

And we just halfway, we've laid off most of the fat Randy stuff. You can't get hurt in warmups. That's just come on. What were you doing? Probably eating. Yeah. Or not warming up. Yeah.

Probably. Yeah. And you weren't warm. Uh, just like, yeah, watch me kick this. And so they asked, they asked Vrabel, was that a concern? And he goes, how much of a concern when you don't have your kicker 10 minutes before a game? Yeah.

Shit ton. So, uh, but Vrabes fucking hates kickers. Anyways, he would prefer to not have a kicker on his team. Yeah, I think they just give him bad vibes, like nerd vibes. So he doesn't like having him around. Um, but yeah, so Vrabel, obviously in a match up between Vrabel, who's a person who can, he, he bended time around Bill Belichick's brain at one point, if you're him going up against Hackett, I feel

like that's a pretty one-sided affair. Yeah. Yeah. And it's just, we watched the end of the game. Russell Wilson just looks sad. He, the stat that I love because I do love the Seahawks success versus Russell Wilson this year. Uh, Russ has been sacked three plus times in seven straight games.

That never happened in Seattle. For all the talk about how bad his offensive line was that never happened in Seattle, just an all time grass is always greener move by Russ. He's got to regret. Oh, no, he doesn't. I don't think he regrets it. I was like, I think he was, he's a robot. Yeah.

Sierra was just like, we need to leave this town. And he was like, yes, dear Broncos country. Let's ride. It still shocks me that the Denver Broncos didn't draft Josh Allen. If you think about everything that was going on at the time. Yeah. John Elway, who was their quarterback though? Was it Brock?

It might have been Brock Osweiler. They might have said like, no, we got, mom, we've got, we've got Josh Allen at home. Yeah. Josh Allen at home is Brock Osweiler. Like Josh Allen, he ticked every single box that John Elway has in his in his binder that he carries from like around the Wyoming is basically Denver. Yes. Like just tall, white, rocket arm, looks good in shorts, big hands.

That's John Elway in the weather. That's his MO and John Elway. Like the one time that we needed you and to have your very simple brain and make this decision, it was in my A because you were, yeah, you were probably in love with Brock Osweiler. I'm looking it up right now. So who did they take in that draft? Wait, was it was a 2018 draft?

Yeah. 2018 draft. Yeah. You're, you're absolutely right. It was so Baker and Denver. Where did they pick? This is bad radio. Chubb. Chubb.

All right. So that was good. Good pick. I guess. But not Josh Allen. Bradley Chubb, two, two picks before Josh Allen. That's tough. Yeah.

They also got Cortland Sutton in the second round. He's great at drawing pass interference. Yeah. Roy Spreeman. I don't know if he should have been nice for Josh out. Josh, yeah, to have Josh Allen on. They might have also had Joe Flacco at that. No, they had Case Keenum.

Case Keenum was their starter that entire year. That was Case Keenum's year. Wow. Yeah. I, in retrospect, if we're redrafting it, I would have taken Josh Allen there. Yep. But that's, I'm just built different. Yeah.

We're just two great front office minds. OK, next game. Let's do a couple of ads and then we'll finish off with the last three games. Yeah.

We told you shows up. We did. We told you did. Listen, everybody out there that was hating on Jeff Saturday, just because you're extremely unqualified for the job. Sometimes you can take a job that you're not qualified for. And the guy that you're going up against is even less qualified than you are. Yes.

I saw someone tweet out, which would be a fascinating ideas every, every week. Whoever's playing the Raiders, just hire someone random and see if they can beat Josh McDonald's. That would be fun. Yeah. Because Jeff Saturday has set the bar. It turns out he's a profit because we, we talked about it last week, but on October 30th from his couch, he said Raiders look horrible on, on Twitter.

They do look horrible. And Jeff Saturday credit to him. One, he started Matt Ryan instead of Sam Elger, which he knew was like, Hey, Matt Ryan's a way better quarterback than Sam Elger. Let's start him because he gives us a chance to actually win a game. And, and it was that, that deserves credit because Sam Elger was the Frank Reich, like last gun, I almost said last gun in the bullet, old school Barstool. Last bullet in the gun move to try to keep his job.

And he's like, no, wait, Matt Ryan's actually pretty good. Let's just game plan for him. He put a guy named Parks Frazier as the offensive corner who never called the play in college or NFL and they won the game and they won the game. And Matt Ryan also scrambled for 39 yards, which was such a fun run that he went on. That was an insane run. And I have a sad stat for a lot of other teams in the NFL, including yours, Max, Matt Ryan's run will be the longest run for all of these teams this year.

Packers, Eagles, commanders, Bengals, Dolphins, Rams, Broncos, Steelers, Bucks, all those teams, Matt Ryan had the longest run in terms of seconds. No, or in terms of yards, maybe both yards. Yeah. The Buccaneers are the low man on the totem pole. Their longest run of the year is 17 yards. Matt Ryan doubled it. So yeah, shout out, Jeff Saturday. This was awesome because he basically coached the game on vibes the entire time.

Total. He was like, Matt, Matt Ryan's gonna be good vibes. I want to impart my vibes to the team. His vibes were such a part of of the DNA of the Colts today. That Quint Nelson probably had the play of the game when he took what he thought was a lateral that got dropped in the end zone or fumble that got dropped in the end zone. And he picked it up and he ran. He probably ran like seven to eight yards with it, covered the ball up with both hands. Was just like bucking.

Was just fighting people. And fighting people to get out of the end zone. And that's that's a guy that likes Jeff Saturday right there. He's like, Jeff Saturday used to play off. It's a line. He's my bro. Yeah. They're bros. I'm going to do this for him. And also just because I think Quint Nelson just likes fighting people. Yeah, but it is vibes because we've had the discussion about like which coaches

win a fight. I still think Mike Vrable is the top of the NFL. But Jeff Saturday is top five. Yeah. When in a fight guy like he that that has to count when you're when you're in the locker room with the bros. Yeah. Saying man a lot. I mean, the Raiders got a taste of it last year to have that kind of guy. Yeah, that's you. Yeah. I I'm a believer in Jeff Saturday just because it makes absolutely no sense.

No, and you can get mad at Jim Ursay or whatever. But Jim Ursay is a fucking he's a weird guy. That's why I love him. He's yes. Oh, are you shocked that Jim Ursay made an unusual hiring decision? Like, of course, he made an unusual hire to say he's fucking Jim Ursay. So the people that are like impugning the way that the Colts are doing business or whatever, just just have fun. You just let it roll.

Have fun watching this. He worked for he worked for Jim Ursay for what, like 15 years. They know each other. Sometimes you just hire your friends to do stuff and the Colts look competent. Like the Jeff Saturday got the Colts looking competent, which they had not looked that way in a few weeks. Do you think about Jim Ursay? What are you saying?

I have a crazy hypothetical to your point earlier about hiring random people to coach against the Raiders. Yeah. Next week, they have the Broncos, can you imagine if they brought him Peyton Manning against Jeff Saturday? That would be fun. Stop calling the freaking plays. The Holy Lines galore. You know, you know, I would maybe game of the year for Jake Plummer,

coaching the Broncos, talk about vibes. Oh, yeah. Plummer in that locker room. You get out, vibe a vibe. He'd just be like, let's just go out there and sling the rock. Has some fun. But just make a play. Yeah. Hey, Russ, stop thinking.

Oh, I'm thinking Raiders Broncos. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, Jake Plummer. Yeah, Jake Plummer gets the entire team on mushrooms before Russ just overloaded with perspective. That actually might be the way to do it. Russ would definitely be the dude who's like, I'm dying. I'm dying.

Got to call the cops and then you can just start whoever is back up. I actually think that Russell Wilson would be the worst quarterback in the NFL to take drugs. Oh, my God. Any drug doesn't matter. Like, can you imagine Russell Wilson on cocaine? How fucking annoying he would be. Every like Russell Wilson needing mushrooms. He would two seconds in be like, you guys feel it.

Yeah, you feel it. You feel it yet? Or like, I think I feel it. Smoke the fuck up. Smoke and weed with Russell Wilson. He would put on Ciara's music. Either that or either that. Or he'd like think that you're supposed to put on Cheech and Chong

whenever you smoke weed. Yeah, he definitely calls it doobies or no, he's a grass guy. You guys will smoke some grass. You want to listen to some Pink Floyd and watch Wizard of Oz? Yeah. Yeah, Russell Wilson would be smoking with your 17 year old self. He would be like, we all did that pretending to hallucinate. It would be just a bad, bad time.

It sucks so bad. I was going to say, Jim Ursa, do you think I know? I think he has kids. He won a Super Bowl. He's got a pretty sweet life. I think this might be top five days of his life because he hired his friend. Everyone made fun of him.

And then his friend went out and beat the guy that he tried to hire a few years ago and basically like had cold feet, signed the paperwork. Everything was ready to go with greeted deals. And then was like, no, I'm going to stay and be the offensive coordinator. Like the most slap in your face move ever to be like, I don't want to be your head coach. I'd rather just be Bill Belichick's like assistant. There's definitely tears being shed.

Yeah, in that meeting. Like they probably went into the locker room after the game and just everybody started to cry. And they probably hugged for a long time, like an awkwardly long hug where Saturday at some point was like, OK, I'm done. You can let me go. You let me go, sir. But like, yes, it's got to be a great feeling for him

because McDaniels did fuck him over. He fucked him over. And then he just and everyone laughed about this hire, including myself. Although it did take the cults. Yeah, it just and maybe not. Maybe it's not actually a top five day of Jim Marseille's life. But Jim Marseille also strikes me as a guy who like 200 times a year says this is a top five day of my life.

Well, yeah, he's like this is one of the best days of my life. He's experiencing everything in the moment on a random Tuesday. So it's all great. Sometimes the universe just lines up and hits you correct. If you're Jim Marseille. Yeah. If you just play a nice guitar, yeah, it'll be like this top five. Top five day of my life. That was a great C chord. We we need to talk about Josh McDaniels.

Yes. Why? Why? Why is Josh? Why? Why is this? Why was he hired? Why is he still hired? Yeah. Why is he not fired yet? Yeah. And how quickly can he get fired? He, Josh, for Daniels, this is going to this is going to sound crazy. So everyone listening right now, maybe pull over.

Josh for Daniels started as a head coach. Six and oh, yeah, with the Denver Broncos. Since that moment, he is seven and 24 as a head coach. Is that Tebow? Yeah. No, no. It was before it was Cal Orton. It was before he traded away. He traded away Cutler to the Bears and then and then Cal Orton.

He went six and oh, and they were cheating. They were videotaping opponents practices. Yeah. A little bit of a New England thing that he carried with him. Well, remember when they beat the Patriots, I think in like the it was either like maybe the fourth or fifth win and everyone's like, holy shit, yeah, this is a big moment. Josh McDaniels next up. Yeah, he was cheating and he just sucked ever since.

So he was cheating and they got caught. They had to stop cheating. And then he's just been objectively by the numbers. Terrible. Seven and 24, the worst coach in the NFL. So very bad coach. McDaniels, bad coach. I have a theory. I think that Mark Davis is trying to drive down the value of the Raiders

so that when he does inherit it from his mom, oh, it's he has less taxes that he has to pay like and maybe he'll be able to come up with the I don't know, like four hundred million instead of the one point two billion. I like that. That he's going to have to pay. So this is smart. Yeah. So it's very smart by Mark. He's probably highly leveraging crypto. Yeah. Oh, extremely.

Yeah. He's probably reading the news today and just being like, uh-oh. He had a rough weekend. He was definitely like he he probably had like two months where he took meetings every single day about someone that wanted to make their own coin in his likeness. Yeah. Like a Mark Davis coin. I just imagine Mark Davis looking like he's at lunch at P.F. Chang's. He's in the bathroom.

And it's like that scene from succession when the when the rocket blows up and Kieran McColk and just like looks at it and he's like, OK, and just puts his phone away. That's what he did when he saw like FTX has defrauded everyone. He just like, OK, back to my my my beef and broccoli. Yeah, Mark. I can't think about this right now. Mark Davis is he's going to be in some tough financial positions when that team does become his property.

But this is this would be a good way to get around it a little bit. Like make everybody hate your team. Hire the worst people to coach it. Yeah. I mean, Rich Passacci is he's definitely won this break up, too. Oh, yeah. Big time. Like, yeah, he's very much missed. And it is the craziest situation where Josh McDaniels, like if he got fired tomorrow, he'd have a job on Tuesday with the Patriots

and the Patriots would be significantly better off for it. Yes, it would actually be great for all parties involved. Maybe this is like a five dimensional chess move that Mark Davis is playing, keeping the Patriots weaker by keeping Josh McDaniels on his. Yes, even though it's the worst thing for his team in the short term. Yeah. Belichick needs to pull like one of his text message tricks and get Josh McDaniels fired.

Yeah, that's that would be the smart move. But yeah, the Raiders are very, very bad, very, very bad vibes. And shout out to Jeff Saturday and Derek Carr after the game gave one of these speeches where he was just crying because he hates losing so much. Yeah. I'm reading in between the lines. He was wearing Fresno State gear, not Raiders gear at the podium. That's like his equivalent of deleting something from his Instagram followers. Yeah. It's like, OK, I'm going to show up wearing my college gear

and then I'm going to proceed to cry and just say I'm sick of all this stuff. I've I've reached the point where I honestly do feel bad for Derek. I was going to say, I wouldn't hate seeing Derek Carr in a year or two getting one of those like Matthew Stafford. He's going to be on the put on a team. Yeah, I know he's going to be on the Colts. It's going to be. But get a team. It's going to be Andy Dalton and then Derek Carr on the Colts.

Yeah, but it would be nice to see him somewhere, anywhere. Yeah, yeah, somewhere except for there. Yeah, just get him out. He seems like a genuine guy. People like him. He's a little weird. Probably I'd say he's in the bottom quartile of quarterbacks to drugs with in the NFL. Yeah. No, I think he's a big guy, which is fine. Probably not the best hang.

But it's, you know, he does seem like a good teammate that everyone rallies around. But man, that's a bad situation. He actually does look like if I looked at Derek Carr, I'd be like, that dude's got some pretty good math. Yeah, he just he gives off big speed vibes. Yeah. And then you'd ask him and he'd call the cops. Yeah. Yeah. OK, Cardinals 21, Rams 17, we're wrapping up.

I love this game. John Wolford versus Colt McCoy with a special guest appearance from Trace McSorley. This was essentially getting to see a week 18 game week 10 because this was like both teams eliminated from it actually was to a team because it was both teams eliminated from any real meaningful football, one coach most likely about to get fired in Cliff Kingsbury. And we got to see the backups duel it out. And Colt McCoy is definitely in the top level of backups in the NFL.

So the Cardinals won. And I bet you Cliff Kingsbury was like, that was kind of cool, because Colt McCoy did the things I wanted to do. Yeah. Yeah. I did a bad job preparing people for this game, because I knew that we might get a John Wolford game. I did not know that this was going to be the Colt McCoy game. Yeah. That snuck up on me.

And that's I'd like to apologize because we've said many times on the show. Colt McCoy is the best quarterback to have come in a game in the middle of November and do a surprise start and when you game out of nowhere. Yeah. That's his job as a backup. And he does it well every single year. Every single year. You will win you one game and you'll be like, thank you, Colt. Thank you for doing that. We appreciate it.

That's why we're paying you like two million dollars a year, whatever it is. I didn't know this was coming up. And if I did, I would have absolutely bet the farm on the Cardinals. And you're right. I feel like I feel like Cliff is getting a taste of what coaching could be like. Yeah. Where he's like, OK, we've got a functional offense that runs right now. And my quarterback is not screaming at me. And you're throwing people other than Deandre Hopkins, like Rondell Moore is now

looking like the guy that we all expected coming out of Purdue. Say something nice about Purdue. And yeah, the Cardinals looks competent. Yeah. And the Rams are cooked. Cooper Cup got hurt at the end of the game. Sean McVeigh afterwards said it it didn't look good. It didn't sound good. That sounds bad. Yeah.

If you can hear an injury, my diagnosis is bad. So I was trying to figure out what happened. And people were guessing that maybe a fractured fibia, which sounds really bad. So it's not a bone. Tibia. There's a tibia. There's a fibula. Tibia. Tibia. That's a bad. Maybe it's both. You don't want to break that one. Fibula. No, fibia. The fibia that you just invented a new bone.

Yeah, no, and he broke it. That's how bad that he invented a new bone. A new injury that no one's ever had before. Cooper Cup tweeted out just a couple of days ago. I believe that we in all teams should be playing on grass. This is an age old issue. And I believe the time to address the problem is now let's have the conversation for safer fields. I'm going to have that conversation and then that happened right afterwards.

Yeah, I like grass. Grass is more fun. Grass is more fun as long as you care about it. Yeah, you got to take that's the part that he's missing. A lot of teams don't take care of it. Yeah, certain teams. Yeah, Bearsfield is looking bad. Steelersfield is looking real bad.

Uh huh. Ralph John, I'm sure is looking terrible. No one's had an ACL injury in the last three weeks. Yeah, we're on a hot streak right now. So just, you know, maybe literally the grass might not be greener. It's not. It's not. It's actually if you look at the middle of Soldier Field right now. It's never green.

Sean McVeigh might just retire in the middle of the season. It's the Rams are officially cooked. I'm calling them cooked. They're done. I don't, we haven't done Dun Chain in a while, but they're done. Yeah, they're, yeah, I'm, I'm confident in putting the Dun Chain on them. I mean, the Dun Chain just got converted to the Vikings chain. Yeah. Yeah, pretty much.

That's it. Um, okay. Last game, last game. Oh, the Cardinals are 11 and three on the road since 2020, which is a nice way of saying they're so bad at home. That's pretty good. And probably most of those, all three of those losses probably were against the Rams.

Yeah. Who they, all they need to do is John Wilford versus Colt McCoy. Yeah. Uh, okay. Last game, uh, brought to you by Roback. Roback.com for 20% off your first purchase. R-H-O-B-A-C-K.com. I'm wearing the joggers right now.

R-H-O-B-A-C-K.com. Perfect, perfect fall winter clothes at Roback.com. The Roback game is Packers 31 Cowboys 28.

I saw this coming from a mile away. I knew the Packers like this just felt like the Packers finally getting right. And the prediction I had in September that Aaron Andrews will do a sit down Andrew, uh, interview with Aaron Rogers before a nationally televised game talking about how he's gelled with his receivers. This felt like the first day going towards that with Christian Watson, three touchdowns, and the Packers are now officially off the mat. Yeah, we, we told you that Aaron Rogers, 28, 18 against the spread as an underdog.

We told you Aaron Rogers, four and one against spread as a home underdog. And we told you that Aaron Rogers is 11 and three against or Matt LaFleur is 11 and three against spread after loss. This cockroaches. We were, we were ready to roll on this game. These are cockroaches here. And it was, it was Mike McCarthy in the Gallagher tribute game. Yep.

But we knew that Mike would get a little too inside his own head. He did. And get into the weird stuff. And he did. And he went full Mike McCarthy and he, uh, he, I'm confident in saying that Mike McCarthy lost the Cowboys this game. Yeah. Um, so this is a crazy stat.

Entering today, the Dallas Cowboys were 180 and zero all time when leading by 14 points through three quarters. If you include playoffs, there were 195 and that's kind of crazy. 195 and zero. Now, obviously, you know, 14 point leads, a pretty big lead going into the fourth quarter, but still that's crazy. 14 points. His Falcons have blown like seven of those in the last two years this season.

Yeah. So, uh, and then they blew this, Mike McCarthy. I don't really know. I was trying to figure out how I felt about the, uh, decision to go for it on fourth and four in over time on the 35 yard line. I looked it up. Brett Maher, not great, like long distance. He's like about 50%.

So you'd probably say, Hey, our offense is better than 50% in a fourth and four situation. But yeah, Mike McCarthy throwing the headset, trying so hard to beat Aaron Rogers, Aaron Rogers as low as he possibly can be. And then he just does this and Christian Watson, like he's going to fucking be a stud. I'm sure he's going to probably be a Hall of Famer. They are off.

Like when I say they're off the mat, I'm fully expecting the Packers to go on a run now and all my nightmares come back. I don't think so. I think that they're sure they will. They'll win Thursday. They're still very flawed team. They'll win Thursday. And, uh, as much as, as much as everything else can go well for the, for

the Packers compared to what's happened in the past, the fact that they're still trotting and Mari Rogers out there to return punts is just insane. He's, I think he's got five fumbles on the year as a punt returner. Like, why, why, why are you still trying to make that work? It's very clear that he doesn't work in this offense. Right. Maybe they were trying to trade him. I don't know, but he's the, he's got the most non-quarterbacked fumbles of any

player in the NFL that's crazy. Don't have him return kicks anymore. It's just, you're asking for bad things to happen. Um, and those tend to happen to the Green Bay Packers and the playoffs. Yeah. Like special teams, miscues, things like that. Um, I'm nervous though. Christian Watson is actually very good.

Yeah. There's not, it's not, it's not a fluke. He's a very good player. And I'm, I'm nervous because the Packers have finally done what they should have been doing all year. They just fed Aaron Jones, 24 carries for 138 yards. He didn't hold my deck when he jumped into the end zone. What, what took you so long?

They had 39 rushes today. Like that, that's what this team should do, especially with the wide receiving court they have. And now I'm very nervous that they're off the mat, going to turn a corner, all that shit. And if you're the Cowboys, like all that talk about the Cowboys being the second best team, the NFC feels a little different now when you go into Green Bay on against a team that is on its like last dying breath and can't beat them.

So the 14 going into the fourth quarter. The Cowboys to me feel like a team that, that is on autopilot. And every time Mike McCarthy hits the autopilot disengaged button and tries to steer it, things just go completely haywire and off the map. Like it's a team that can probably run itself for the most part with minimal Mike McCarthy and head coach interference. Yes, that's the, that's the strategy. That's how you win.

If you're the Dallas Cowboys, the less that he actually does, the better for your team overall. Yeah, he looked good though. Mike McCarthy looked good before the game. He's wearing the, the like suede trench coat, walking around Lambo. Yeah, it was nice school. Yeah, it was nice. He gave Aaron Rogers a nice little hug.

They looked genuinely happy to see each other. They're cockroaches. I also just, I don't know if this game wasn't on deck. Um, I just don't. I don't have like a ton of faith in DAC as a big, do you have a ton of faith in DAC as a big time quarter? Like win a big game guy. I do not have a ton of faith in DAC and I, I just don't.

I don't know why. I like, again, I don't think this game, he did have two interceptions. Like, yeah, no, there were, people were saying that they should be playing Cooper Rush instead. It might've just been me, but I'm sure that there was no, he's better than he's a good, he's a very good quarterback. They just need to, if you're like, big game, I need to win a game. I just am not feeling like DAC is going to win me.

They need to run the Cooper Rush offense with DAC Prescott as the quarterback. Yeah. And then I think things, things simplify themselves at that point. You just give the ball to Pollard. Let Pollard just go fucking ham on everybody. He's a good running back. You got to be pretty pumped, Max, watching that. Yeah, I love seeing the Cowboys lose, always.

Are you okay? Did you get sick? No, I'm good. You just turned into like Bain for a second. Yeah, it was the little thing I'm working on tonight. Okay, wait, did you see that on purpose? No, you just slide into that. I just hadn't spoken in a while.

Yeah. Oh, it's coming back. Yeah, it's always a good day when the Cowboys lose. I want to see them die. Uh, okay. Should we do some football guy the week and then wrap it up with some who's back the week? Uh, football guy the week.

Yeah. How'd that happen? Talk too much party. Five hours nonstop Friday. I did so sweet. Smoked a lot of weed on my voice. Am I just built different? Yeah, you are.

Wow. Remember that stretch last year where I lost my voice for like a month? That sucked. Shout out all the AWLs for hanging in with me. I thought I'd never get it back. I actually made a doctor's appointment. Didn't show. But I made it.

But I made it. What's the doctor going to tell you at that point? Like, let me see. Oh, yeah, your throat sucks. Yeah. Stop talking for like, one second, dude. Mike Evans, a head football coach in the Pittsburgh area.

His state playoff, his team's state playoff game was going, was forecast for rain. So he brought the fire department's hose and I love that. Yeah, I love that. I love that. That's always, I love that. I know you like to get wet. Come on, Jake.

Yeah. Number two, a journalist named Sam Porter. He screenshotted a text conversation to his friend. Yes, this is great. Me and Alice are now engaged. And his friend said, ref's been calling all kinds of bullshit. Just keeping Casey in the game. The F does that have to do with me getting engaged.

And then he said, LMAO, I thought you might like locked in on the game, bro. SMH sorry, congratulations. That's great. Yeah, I know that it speaks to like, when you, when you're watching football, sometimes you just assume that the entire rest of the world is also watching. Yeah, I'm, I'm locked in now. I'm engaged. Yeah.

Number three, Jeff Saturday's speech. Yep. This week, bro, man, bro, yep. And that number four, we didn't talk about this game because we recorded early, but Baker Mayfield on Thursday night football, he was headbutting his teammates with that helmet. Yeah. Um, I just gave him a just chill out man for that.

Yeah. I feel like there were a couple of offensive linemen on that team that he headbutted and they were like, why? Why are you doing this to me right now? And he just kept on going. Yeah. Yeah. So vote on the poll.

Yeah. Okay. Nice. Thank you, Jake. I'll Mike Leach won last week. Yes. That makes sense. And then didn't cover against Georgia.

Thanks for nothing, Mike Leach. I like the, I like the fire department hose move. That's a, that's a solid move for a high school. Yeah. I like how sometimes they get the scissor lift and they send a guy up there with the hose. So he makes it come down like from above. Where he's raining on careful.

Yeah. No, he's two favorite things, storms and scissor lifts. Okay. Who's back of the week? Who's back of the week brought to you by visible with visible's one line wireless plan. The data is unlimited and all yours so you can stream all the holiday games or movies you want from almost anywhere.

Hank, I like the flannel. We're doing flannels. Flannel, yeah. I got some new flannels. I'm probably going to debut them next week. It's the season. Yeah. Are you tan, Hank?

Am I? Your face looks red. Boosburn. It might just be the, it's not booze. It's probably this, you know, wool flannel. Oh, it's nothing worse than people's. Then someone's like, are you tan? And it's like, no, I've just been drinking for eight hours.

Yeah. No drinks today. My who's back first, who's back of the week is F1 drama. Yeah. Curring guests are guys, Max and Checo, teammates not getting along great. Max did not let Checo pass him today. He was very upset afterwards. I was trying to follow along with that.

Like, would it just, it would have been the nice thing to do to have. It's like the teammate thing. Max has already wrapped up all the awards. He's the best driver in F1. All he had to do is throw his guy a bone, but it also was like, that's who Max Verstappen is. He's not going to, he's a dick in like a very compact. This is like a Jordan thing, like Jordan Kobe, like Tiger Woods.

Yeah, those guys are dicks, but that's why they went. So I, you kind of take, I don't know, I feel bad for Checo. Me too. Felt really bad for him. So what place did he get? Second. I assume F1 is going on too long. I will, I will be excited to watch this and try to survive.

I'm actually really pumped. I'm getting pre excited about the F1 in Las Vegas. Yeah. Because they're going to race it through the strip. Yeah. Like downtown Las Vegas. That's going to be a fucking crazy weekend. Yeah.

I'm either who's back as coach Dugs getting the key to the city of Toledo this week. I am. Very funny, you know, call back to COVID coach Dugs, a video game character, big cat is coaching career, won a national championship for Toledo. Yep. They promised him a key to the city and that's actually going to happen in real life on Tuesday. We're just, it's not like there's a lot going on in Toledo.

Yeah. We're doing the maxion tour for the college football show. So 5 30 p.m. on Tuesday, 5 30 p.m. on Wednesday. I might be 4 30 on Wednesday because we're going to be at NIU. So Toledo come out and then NIU on Wednesday. I actually like, I was thinking about it. I would love for there to be a big crowd at Toledo. I also wouldn't hate it if it was like eight people.

That would be kind of funny. Like if it was like Youngstown that one time, right? It'd be like eight people and maybe like an old lady, like walking up and like peering and like hearing like big F swear and she'd be like, Oh, not for me. You're the basketball team there. Yeah. The basketball team who was in our bar still invitation. They played great.

But yeah, I'm going to be getting the key to the city. I've never had a key to the city. I assume that means I'm, I just own Toledo now. Yeah, you can, you can change the law. I can do anything. I'm, I just pulled up your roster from that Toledo team. Give it to me. Quarterbacks, Cade Shipley and Blake Bortles, who was a transfer.

Okay. Fullback, Brock Hemi. Brock Hemi. Your name. Wide running backs, Bam Bam Callaway and Bo Hammer. But Bam Bam Callaway was a great name. Receivers Prince Fontana, Cisco Bay and Ken Moore. Okay.

I remember my, I remember my defensive end was the reason why I won the national title. Robert Roberto. I think it might have been Robert Roberto. He's your defensive end. Yeah, he was stud. Receivers Prince Fontana, Cisco Bay, Ken Moore, Titan, Bubba Butt. Bubba Butt. Linebacker, Dilbert Dugarton.

Okay, that's my son. That was my son. Yeah. Yeah. Cause I went home to Toledo. Yeah. That's where I started the whole thing. Yeah.

Kicker, PFT commentary. Yes. Yes. It's good. Also a transfer and then punter, Norm Wood. Norm Wood. Okay. Yeah.

That was, uh, yeah, the COVID times. No, no sports, but yeah, key to the city, two years in the making. Feels good. Very funny. And then lastly, just shout out AWOs. There was a lot of, a lot of AWOs came out on Friday. Tons. The Barcelona Invitational was great.

Great seeing everyone. Lots of merch, repping. Lots of merch on the Jumbotron. It was awesome. Yeah, it was great. Thanks to everyone for coming out. Jake, absolutely crush it. Crushed.

Take that, crush it too, obviously. No, but Jake crushed it. Jake crushed it. Jake, like, you guys crushed it. No, Jake, you crushed it, bro. Thank you. Yeah. Me too.

Don't get too ahead of yourself, though. Young whippers. No, no, no, no. You did crush it. You, that was, you were basically Dave Pash dealing with the Bill Walton on steroids with me and Dave just rambling about gambling lines. It was really fun.

Yeah, it was. You did a great job. I'm very proud of you. I texted you after. You did. I said, I'm very proud of you. Yeah. Thank you.

Also, PFT, I pulled off to get gas and Philly and I stumbled across a bar called Bonks. Oh, nice. Yeah, I took a picture. I might stop by. Yeah. All right, PFT. My who's back in the week is Casey Anthony.

Oh, oh, yeah. I'm in the bonks. Speaking of what? Wait, why are you bonking me for that? That's not on me. I am attracted to her, but that's not why I chose her. Yeah. Uh, no, Casey Anthony's back.

She's doing a Netflix thing where she, or maybe it's on Peacock. I don't know. I'll probably screw that up and whatever streaming services don is very upset at me for doing that. Um, but she's doing a documentary about her life and about the case, um, where she allegedly killed her, uh, daughter. Yeah. So her daughter.

So I'm fascinated with Casey Anthony because she is maybe the biggest liar in the history of the world. Everything that she says is a lie, but I'm fascinated by her brain. And it's, I know it's like a weird, it's a weird thing that I have where like I have to, I've watched all of her police interrogations that she's done. I've seen like every interview that she's ever given because every word that comes out of her mouth is a lie and I love her for it. Yeah.

Um, I mean, she's obviously a terrible human being, um, who's probably in jail for the rest of her life, but she's not. And she's doing this, uh, this new series. So I cannot wait. I think the first episode, they're going to tease it next week. And then I'll have to watch the entire, I'll do a review with you. Yeah. I see Anthony.

Shout out on the podcast, but I banned her from the pod from part of my take. Okay. All right. But we'll do a review. If, if she wants to come on the podcast, then I'll reconsider. But right now she is banned banned from part of my take. Only in person interview. Only in person interview.

Yep. Absolutely. That's not a bonk, Hank. She's better. It'd be better. It would be very good face to face. Right. Agreed.

I mean, Hank, you're all about the numbers. Factor fiction. Fact. Fact. Casey Anthony interview. Fact or fact. Would do. I, I think it would do bigger numbers than Aaron Rodgers fiction.

No, I think that might be fiction. I think because you draw in a whole new, who do things killed more people? Aaron Rodgers or Casey Anthony? I still, I mean, I think, you know, I love the listeners of the show. I think love sports. There's probably a percentage of people that don't even know Casey Anthony. I think that there you are. You're forgetting our guys are horny too.

Yep. All right. Our AWLs, there's there's strong group of horny sports guys and you're forgetting and women that there is an entire audience for like true crime shit. And they listen to podcasts. Like that's all they do. If you're a true crime fan, all you do is listen to podcasts. We are the the only thing that like beats us routinely is true crimes.

And we get up there and Joe Rogan, who, oh, that would be my who's back, my who's back is UFC. I was able to go to UFC 281. We had John Anick in studio on Friday. It was awesome. Saw Joe Rogan, Joe Rogan and Dave had a talk. It was basically like the peak of masculinity in America. Did they did they like respect each other's presence?

Yeah, no, they were they were they're catching up. But it was crazy. It was a week. Dana put us because Meatball Molly was fighting. Unfortunately, she lost. Tried really hard. Actually, in a weird way.

And this will sound like loser talk. It was probably the most impressive loss I've ever seen because she could have tapped out like a hundred times and she didn't until she was basically out of breath and all of her limbs were broken. But it was crazy. I got to sit next to Halle Berry, who I would say we're close personal friends now, although who was she with?

I don't know. It was some guy. But who cares? I was actually like, is he bothering you? She's like, no, that's my brother. And she posted a picture of her from the event being like captioned this. And you could see me a little bit in it. And then she deleted the picture

because I think everyone replied tagging me. So I don't think I don't think there's a future for us. She's probably upset about that. Jealous. Yeah, jealous. Probably for the best. Yeah, probably for the best. Halle Berry is. Well, her whoever her man's with was probably upset.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And then the best moment though. Well, the fights were incredible. The Pereira is just probably the most intimidating guy ever. And then the Poirier Chandler fight was like an all time fight where it was around a boxing around a grappling and then a mix in the third round. But the best moment was I got to shake hands

with Stephen A. Smith and he has his phone on his belt. So he has the case and he whips it out like a fucking gun like he shook our hands and then he got a call and he was like and just fucking took it. A couple. Yeah. Yeah. OK. Sounds good. Walked off. Is he still wearing the big pants? He's wearing the big pants.

He's wearing pants like top 10 pants guy. Yeah. Kobe Letterman jacket that said like legends never die. Just by far the most like I was sitting next to Halle Berry and I saw Stephen A. Smith and I was like, holy shit. There's Stephen A. Smith whipping out his phone. I bet Stephen A. Smith has like Madison Square Garden. Outfits like already set aside. He's like these are worthy to wear to a sporting event at the Mecca.

Yeah. But it was crazy. The UFC. I mean, it's it's an all time like top live event to be able to go to. So thank you to Dana and Patty, the baddies fighting in a month. So hopefully he wins and Meatball Molly's going to be back. She was fighting a girl that everyone said was going to be a champion. And here's the coolest part about the whole night. Meatball Molly from Liverpool, friend of ours on the show. She was fighting a girl from Jersey.

Madison Square Garden went nuts for Meatball Molly. That's great. Pooed the girl from Jersey. Good. So nice little nice little thing for us. OK, Jake. Oh, and a fun announcement. Nine a.m. Tuesday. Fun announcement. My who's back is basketball on a ship. Yeah.

It happened during our broadcast. So I wasn't able to watch. We caught the highlights. Michigan State Gonzaga. Great game for Veterans Day. And it was cool. Yeah. Michigan State won. Right. No. Oh, I didn't know.

Where are you? Gonzaga one. Yeah. Fuck. Michigan State. Mr. Buzzerbeet. Fuck. Yeah. This is my favorite college basketball game of the years when they go on the aircraft carrier. Yeah. And I always think like, don't the waves make it tough to to dribble and jump and all that stuff. Yeah. It's crazy. Yeah.

It's on uniforms. Veterans Day. Could you play a baseball game on? Like if you if you docked a bunch of aircraft carriers like together. Yeah. Yeah. Are like a football game. Dude, they should play a football game on an aircraft carrier. That would be. That would be crazy.

But like one that's actually moving around at sea. That would be great. Wow. I'd watch that. And that's now. Yeah. Yeah. Get it stuck. Yeah. That's the next stop. We've we've conquered every Tom Brady's gonna have to stay playing football until he can win on an aircraft carrier.

Yeah. Or what if you built a golf course on boats? So like you had a bunch of aircraft carriers and then you grew, you know, you grew the Greens out. You hit from one to the other. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. These are all great ideas. Yeah. So that was a cool event. Yeah, that was OK.

Good show, everyone. Numbers. Seventy nine. Hank, have you ever gotten this? No. Have you? No. Why are you so? Why are you so angry? Wait, Hank, remember the last four shows we've had two numbers. What were they?

Forty four, forty four, twelve, twelve. But that means we're going to get a new number now and then it's going to double up. You would think. I'm 18 unless someone takes it before me. I'm taking 17 every time. Eighteen. I have no choice. Twenty.

Because you have sixty nine. I got sixty nine. I will take thirty. Hank, you've never gotten this. I have not, Dan. You said that like it was a slur. Yeah, very upset. Daniel. Forty five, almost forty four again.

Kevin White. Sixty fourty five. Let me go. So close. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh To hopes.
