There's an about our sports
He left, Shrek
Welcome to part of my take
Today is Monday, January 8th, week 18.
And let us be the last to thank you for tuning in to another NFL season.
We start in wet and soggy Baltimore where free Mason Rudolph played inspired ball on January 6th as a Ravens couldn't stop the steal.
Urrs. Little Tay Johnson is confirmed he is not dead as he was a sucker for the deep ball scoring a big touchdown to put the stealers up.
And Mike Tom Linsanity has lasted 17 years. Pittsburgh is back in the playoffs. Here we go. Steelers. Here we go.
Pittsburgh's going to the Super Bowl. Steelers 17. Ravens 10.
What? What?
Over to our first playoff game where I spent last night in the house of a team from India and running a couple hundred miles,
Nico Collins bat, Rouge, Jonathan Taylor made used every club in his bag, but the Texans were extremely
strouled and incredibly close to wrapping up an unlikely division title. The game came down to the final play,
where Tyler Goodson did his impression of Tokatai the Orca and lost all control of his flippers when Ersei's team was trying to
air it out. The toxic 23, the cult 19. To a Sunday where the Jacksonville Jaguars were fighting for
their playoff lives in the dignity of certain short Italian football writers, Tractor Sito,
played his last game in 10, a Sito, a mini truck like El Camino, much of the sugar and a small Prisco Pito,
Tracked or Sito, Clever Lawrence tried to get the last laugh, but his shoulder wasn't
dislocated enough to get the two yards necessary for a late score, and as we learn time and time
again, God hates Jags, Titans 28, Jags 20.
Over to Ohio where AJ Sopran O McHarran never had the makings of a varsity athlete, but
he did get in garbage time in this one.
Kickbrowning looked really good and stood at her husband, as big man on campus Jake
Driskel looked like he was on the no fly less when some of his passes.
Andre, Yosevus and Putt had showed the brown his score. Holyo, not once,
but twice. As he said, I need TD for my Bengals. On the way to a Bengals 31, 14 win.
We head over to Foxboro where we have our reporter Henry Lockwood on the scene. Hank,
in a fitting tribute to the weather, James Snow White rang the lighthouse bell today, as
the white powder
came down and bunches throughout the day in Foxboro. Matthew Kelly Slater in the Patriots
couldn't even manage to hang ten points on the feeble jets as Trevor Sivian and the
jets road priests are sending a haul to the tune of 178 yards in a touchdown as the jets
were hooping hooping hooping. All the white powder falling from the sky to celebrate their first victory
Versed to England in their last 15 games just 17 patriots three 15 games
16
All right white powder sounds like they could have used Patrick Chong
We now had to Philadelphia actually New York
Where Max is there sad sad sad boy Max
We had over to make life works officially time to kill the Philadelphia females
Soon to be unemployed as Nick steering mommy may have to move into his parents' basement after this one
Seek one Tony starkly dominated the first half and told all the Philadelphia
Everyone wants a happy ending, right?
But it doesn't always roll that way
Nick Sorrow should be apologizing to all the Philadelphia for being the worst fucking player ever play the game
I hate the Eagles the Eagles really suck giant 27 equals 10
In the frozen tundra some idiots called this bears the Super Bowl
But Jordan love has won as all the cult members up in Green Bay found their new mother god
Don Tavy and make a wix wix for 15 more years of Packer domination and his wix look like it's gonna come true
As the Bears make some podcasters very sad about their life asking why they even care about this stupid sport to begin with and wouldn't be better to be dead
Packer 17 Bears 9.
What?
What?
Over to Raul John Maryland.
It's the end of a Rivera.
Reach for common on the sidelines during the game.
Coach Ron said.
Poldack Prescott has worked on his Cardi B and Cardio throwing some WAP.
What has passes and putting it all on a CD?
Lamb that is.
The Cowboys look ready for the playoffs while people are still asking, are these mother
fuckers even real?
We may have to send reporter and world renowned not educated person Hank Lackwood down there
to investigate.
The Cowboys 38 38 the Commander's 10
Standing on a corner James Winston down in Nola such a fine sight to see it's our
guys my lord and he wants to score heading off instead of taking a knee. Come on Dennis, why do you win this? Now
the Saints will probably bring you back. We nailed that one boom, put some
stank on it. Saints go marching 48 17 and that was the fastest two minutes.
The last fastest two minutes, the regular season, week 18 brought to you by
our friends at Chevy. The Chevy Silverado has commanding an unstoppable
grit, legendary capability and dependability too. We've all spent time,
seat time as they called in the biz behind the wheel of a Silverado and
we're not just truck guys, we're Chevy truck guys, we tested out the new Silverado and we're
in Detroit.

Okay, week 18 in the books and boys, we have our playoffs, we have our playoffs.
It is finally here.
So for context, we are taping, we're taping the show.
It's fourth quarter of Bill's Dolphins, but because the bills are in the playoffs, it
matters a little bit less.
Obviously, he still matters a lot for the two seed, but we have the playoffs. It matters a little bit less. Obviously, still matters a lot for the
two seed, but we have our playoffs and we have, should we go through the playoffs schedule
with my as well, right? We can go in order. Right now. We'll just say for the dolphins,
we don't know if they're going to be playing in Miami next week, or if they're going
to be playing in Kansas City. Correct. As Jeff Darlington pointed out, this is not necessarily
a matchup of which team you would prefer to play. It's more a matchup of what kind of weather does Miami want to play in because it's going to be 70 degrees Miami
next weekend. And it's going to be like 15, 20 degrees in Kansas City. It's going to be the
it's going to be the candy ass uniforms. Yes. The candy ass uniforms. They don't travel well
or do they are they're going to lose horrifically. They don't travel. I can see the candy ass uniforms
winning a playoff game in Miami. Yes. So here's what we have and then we will go back through all the games
This weekend and tell you how we got here, but we have on Saturday to kick off the wild card weekend super wild card weekend
Excuse me
The Texans are back where they belong
There's there's a whole generation of people that don't know that the Texans always play the Saturday and by whole generation
I mean like kids from the ages of like three to eight. Yeah, it's been too long
It was either the Texan spot or the Bengals. I feel like the Bengals play and then remember when they actually played each other
Yeah, and that was great collision course
Yeah, it was the Marvin Lewis or Houston Texan spot. Yeah, so browns of Texans to start Saturday super wildcard weekend
Now I should mention this is the classic Texan spot.
This is not the classic Texans because the CJ strad, because the Texans spot historically
was always like, which weird Texans quarterback are we can get to watch play football in the
playoffs?
It was is JJ what gonna score enough touchdowns on defense for the Texans to win this
wildcard.
Right.
But the Texans are playing the first game.
Then we have on Saturday night, the peacock exclusive, the Kansas cheese will be hosting the dolphins
or the Steelers. Correct. Yes. Jake correct me from wrong or the bills at the same time. Okay.
If the game ends at a tie, which is tied right now, Sunday, we have it's going to either be Buffalo
at Miami or Pittsburgh at Buffalo.
So that will be like whoever whatever team ends up having to go to chicken city, the other team, we'll have the home playoff game on Saturday,
just kick off Saturday or Sunday, sorry.
And then we have the green Bay Packers at the Dallas Cowboys,
Hank's Dallas Cowboys win the NFC East, which will get all of that. Sunday night, we have Matt
Stafford returning to Detroit. Jake has been creaming his dockers all afternoon about
it. The story line story. This is the storyline game. This game, it's going to be like
framed to be a revenge game for Jared golf and a revenge game for Matt Stafford. It's
not a revenge game for Matt Stafford. This is the Jared Golf revenge. Yes.
100%.
Yes.
And there was a moment, Jake did all his predictions.
And I love Jake.
This is what he lives for, is scheduling.
And there was a moment when we'll get to the Bears Packers
game where I was just sitting in kind of silence.
Just in real, real sad feel bad for myself, like pissed off,
just all the emotions. and Jake was like,
maybe three feet away from me,
just being like the storylines are incredible,
and talking and like guessing the schedule,
and I had to recuse myself and go look in the mirror
and be like, wow, how did I get here?
As a guy that roots for storylines,
though, you have to take your hat off to the script writers.
It did a great job, the script is perfect this year,
as always, it would have tripped you to Golden Globe Sunday. It was one of those moments where I had to take your hat off to the script writers. It did a great job. The script is perfect this year, as always.
It would attribute to Golden Globe Sunday.
It was one of those moments where I had to take myself away
because what Jake was doing nothing wrong,
it was my bitch-ass self just being like, sad at myself.
Well, you were just upset that one of the storylines
was gonna be Mike McCarthy against the Packers.
Correct.
I also apologize for asking you the first drive of the game.
Hey, big cat, do you think the Bears and Packers
have ever played on CBS?
Yeah, that would kill me. Yeah, yeah, Jake was like, there's a lot of playing on CBS and they were playing on CBS.
I don't give a fuck. I think I picked up on Jake cares very deeply about initials. Yeah, CBS, F.O.X.
S and F. I think I just said to Jake, because I don't give a fuck. You did. I was like, I really, the parents are driving.
Speaking of the cock,
let's talk real quick about the playoff game on peacock.
Yes.
That sucks.
I don't like that.
We're gonna have to get Jason Garrett interi balls,
and we have to pay for the privilege
of having Jason Garrett show up,
which stinks as if you're watching it on a phone
or on a tablet.
You can't, it's very hard to flip back and forth.
So, if you're streaming it from your phone to your TV,
you can't check out their commercial breaks.
Counterpoint, we've all been trained by Amazon.
Yeah, but that sucks too.
I don't like that.
No, I know, I know, but I'm saying like this isn't,
people were freaking out about Picoca,
like we've been doing this now for two years with Amazon.
It sucked at the beginning of Amazon.
Now I'm just used to it.
And I also, I'm someone,
I think a lot of our listeners are probably in the same boat.
I have fucking apps coming out of my eyeballs.
I have apps that I don't even know that I'm paying.
I have two B, I have all these fucking apps.
I don't have Pee-Boo, Phoebe, all this fucking apps,
I sound like Bill Bell check right now.
I pay double, I pay for the apps, I pay for the cable.
I think that most of us listening to,
most of people listening to show right now
are in a similar boat where it's like,
yeah, they already have peacock
because they had to watch Michigan State
in fucking Northwestern play tonight.
Oh, I'm not saying that, yeah, I don't have peacock.
I have peacock.
I just hate the experience of watching a game
on an app as opposed to watching TV.
Agreed.
Agreed.
You can easily and elegantly and seamlessly flip back and forth
and show off your skills going back to the game.
Right as it's about to snap again,
be like, look how good my timing is.
My point was more that the time to complain about
having to watch football on apps was like two years ago
when they first made us do it.
I'm gonna use the time right now to complain about
because it's a playoff game.
Yeah, it stinks.
It's over like the big 10 is now on peacock all the time.
Like I just, it's the apps on us.
I've apps everywhere.
Well, you want an app?
You can come up to me.
I'll just pull, like if I pull out my keys
an app will fall out of my pocket.
It when we moved, I had to download probably 20 apps
for different.
Oh yeah, everyone has an app.
You have to have an app to park.
You have to have an app for your car now.
It's just too many apps in general. Have you ever thought about, uh, it's just an app. You have to have an app to park. You have to have an app for your car now.
Just too many apps in general.
Have you ever thought about,
it's just one app.
Right.
There's your bundle of them.
We just put them all together into an app.
Have like, extended to your Comcast,
just sell them all to Super app.
Have you ever thought about like,
getting your apps on your phone like, in order and stuff?
No, I think about it a lot.
I've never done that. No, I, stuff. Because I think about it a lot. I've never done that.
No, I think about doing it a lot.
I have never done it as well.
I have blank spaces where there was an app
that I had to delete for memory or whatever.
There's, but someday I might do it.
Well, what people do when they do that,
they categorize them all into super apps.
Yeah.
And then you have one app for like home,
one app for travel, one app for work, and then you just make another app out super apps. Yeah. And then you have one app for like home, right, one app for travel, right,
one app for work.
And then you just make another app out of it.
Yeah.
It's got six apps in it.
Yeah.
All right.
So, and then the finale of Super Wild Card Weekend
is Monday Night Football Eagles at Bucks.
Max, I'm upset that it's Monday Night Football,
but here's what I'm going to say to the listeners.
We have already talked about this.
We will be streaming all these playoff games. that it's Monday night football, but here's what I'm gonna say to the listeners. We have already talked about this.
We will be streaming all these playoff games.
The Monday night game, we will tape a time capsule
so we get raw max right afterwards.
Yeah, I wanna hear max.
Cause we obviously don't have a show on Tuesday.
Max, who can do your solo pod after that game?
No solo pod.
Solo pod.
No solo pod.
You're gonna be the box. Yeah, like it's a fucking playoffs max get up your favorites
Crazy and a lot of people are asking is Hank gonna go down to Dallas for his Cowboys game I
I would personally want Hank to go down but as I've looked it up
I can check again, but on Expedia. I'm there's there's no hotel rooms in Dallas
So if you want wanna go down there,
you have to find a place to stay.
I don't know if there's any Airbnb's or...
That's fair.
Maybe somebody down there that has an open bed,
but I'm looking at it right now.
You can chouch.
There's no couch.
No way I can go.
I don't know how it goes.
At all.
I mean, I can probably find a place, but.
Okay, okay.
So you wanna go?
Yeah.
If you can find a place, you can go.
All right, you can go. Okay, great. Awesome. You'd be back for something.
For the pod. No. Oh, we can go down there. Maybe you can go down on Saturday, just to see what the, what the environments like. Yeah.
I could do that. You know, you should do. I would rather go to the game as a cowboy's fan.
Like, I want to go and see you see the boys take down the packer
You should go you should go and wait and be one of those cowboy fans that runs into
Stand at the front and then leave and then leave right away. Yeah, just get your spot
Take a picture and then get back on a flight
What if we just record super late how late like three you don't edit three a.m
Do you think I mean is the button going to get pressed? Super late. How late? Like three. Well, you don't edit three a.m. Ha ha ha ha ha. What?
Do you think, I mean, is the button going to get pressed?
What if I edit it?
Oh, okay.
Maybe we'll talk.
We'll talk.
We'll talk offline.
You could do a cellopod,
or if there's somebody else that you're like,
you know is a great big Cowboys fan,
maybe you could do a,
like a segment with them and then upload it.
Yeah, I could do that.
Yeah.
By the way, the bills did just take the lead.
This has been the most Buffalo bills game.
It's their entire season rolled into one single game
where the first half was the most frustrating
half a football I've watched.
And it's like they just got all these yards, no points.
I think they've left about 28 points on the board.
Yeah, looks dominant, but don't have anything to show for it. I think they've left about 28 points on the board. Yeah.
Looks dominant, but don't have anything to show for it.
But now they're leading 21-14, thanks to punt return and then a touchdown drive by
Josh Allen on the bill.
So right now they're leading.
Right now, if the season ended right this second, they would be the two seed hosting the
Steelers on Sunday, the first game after all this.
After all of that, they would.
And shout out to Adam Schaefter, who completely cucked NBC.
They were supposed to do the schedule announcement a half time of this Sunday night game.
And Schaefter in the 30 minutes leading up to the game, just tweeted out the entire.
Yeah, he did it.
He did.
They've been working on it for this long.
He just tweeted it out.
Jake, you ended up four for six.
Yeah, four for six?
Yeah, four for six.
Four for six.
What went wrong?
Let's talk about it real quick.
What went wrong out there?
I thought there was no chance
they would make the Swifties pay for peacock.
Well, that's the genius of it.
That's the point of it.
I thought they would give them something
on their football.
No, no, no.
This is how you get the Swifties on the cock.
You can't miss my homes.
My homes really gets everything.
Yeah.
So I'm screwed up.
Swifties are gonna love that.
I think, like right now, the Swifties might be hesitant
to the cock because it's new.
But once they get a taste of the cock,
I think they're gonna come back for more.
Actually, wait.
So everything I said that I got chastised for three months ago,
I was right.
We're gonna get to see Taylor Swift of the cock.
Yeah.
Oh, perfect.
Taylor Swift will be on the cock. And I gonna watch it if she gets if she goes to the
game I don't know because Travis missed out her big night tonight that's
that's cock on Swift and I'm gonna get to see it you think that Swift on cock
you think that glissi'll be on the cock is that cock worthy she'll right on to the
cock okay she'll hop on the cock real quick. Right you're playing with fire. No, no
I'm sorry about what the game is gonna be her face will be on the cock right
Anyways, yeah, and if talking about a streaming and let's be honest if there's a weird like if they take her into a break
And they're showing her there could be cock on her face
Because you know how they do like the the image like pops right I know what you're saying I know exactly what I'm saying you think she likes to get
streamed on she probably gets like she likes streaming oh man we're talking we're talking about NBC's app guys yeah what the fuck are you guys laughing about
I think technology's funny you guys are gross see a little swift on the cock I flip flop Saturday night and Sunday night games.
For for six, that's on me.
And if the dolphins don't come back here,
I will be watching on my phone
out of wedding Saturday night.
Oh, if this podcast is canceled,
I can go to the game.
Yes, you guys.
All right.
Hank's gonna cut up all this stuff
out of order and be like, get these guys on.
I'll tell you, this podcast is canceled.
PFT and I will just do like daily meetups where we'll have people just come and listen to it. I'll tell you right now, this podcast is canceled. PFT and I will just do, we'll just do like daily meetups
where we'll have people just come and listen to it.
We'll take it underground.
We'll just start a nice beer hall.
We'll just start a new podcast and it'll be
on Andrew Tate's streaming service.
But yes, so Saturday night, that's where the mistake
was made that you never thought that you'd see
Taylor Swift on a cock.
The, I never thought, sorry.
The game that Taylor Swift is going to be at
would be featured on the NBC peacock application.
Yeah, for a subscription.
Here's the deal.
She put out a movie of her concert, right?
So people had to go pay to see her concert.
Then they paid money to see the movie
that was her concert.
Then they had to pay more money to see the extra version worth of her movie of the concert
I think they can afford to sell it 999 for one night of the cock. I don't think Swifties care that much anymore either
I think that's kind of worn off
What like seeing Taylor Swift at the game. No, no it has never seen her on the cock not in a playoff atmosphere
Right. This is a totally different situation. Cosmo's at a different speed than he really does.
I mean, isn't it like it could buffer?
Yeah, it could.
At any point, yeah, we could have, you know, we'd have to reset.
Mm-hmm.
Let's get it back.
I'm a Swiftie, so if anyone who's a left-tailor Swift is listening and wants to like cancel
you guys, we still have representation.
What the fuck?
Jake's trying to take a spot for sure never I actually the the funniest part about this whole if we get canceled
We're gonna cancel together. Yeah, we're all going down together and we're gonna be up and we can cut you can come down with me
We're gonna cancel. We're all doing the Ray Allen tweets together
I probably listen to more Taylor Swift than anyone in this room because my kids won't get in a car without listening to Taylor Swift.
I was doing nonstop. I listen to a lot of Taylor Swift. Every day. I am a Swiftie. Every day. Yeah. Every single day. I take my son to school every day.
I make sure to listen to the ones that aren't Taylor's version though. I'm trying to scoot or brawn deserves. Let's hear it out from both sides. The real genius. The operation. All right, let's get back to football.
Let's talk some football.
Let's figure out how we got here
to this wonderful super wild card weekend schedule.
And we'll go.
There's some games we're going to go very quickly through.
There's some games we can discuss a little bit longer.
But let's start with Saturday.
We had the Steelers 17 Ravens 10.
Mike Tomlin has done it again.
Mike Tomlin took a team that was seven and four, then lost to the Cardinals and Patriots
at home and got absolutely smoked by the Colts and went to seven and seven and everyone
wrote them off.
He wins out 10 and seven.
He now is tied with Bill Cower, ten seasons of 10 plus wins, which is crazy. And the Steelers
are in the playoffs. And I have one question for you, PFT. Obviously TJ Walkets, I don't
know what his status is going to be. Are the Steelers maybe dangerous?
If TJ White plays, yes. And TJ White tried to get back in the game with, I think it's
a grade two sprain on his MCL. Yeah. So it's not it's not an insignificant injury.
Most people probably couldn't play on it.
TGWAT though he doesn't get injured really.
He just gets upset for having to leave the game.
He gets angry.
And they's like put whatever contraption or apparatus you have
to affix to my body on.
And then I'll just step on the field and then I'll go and get a sack.
Yes.
That's how he works.
And he played really well when he was in the game.
He had what 19 sacks.
So he, no, the league, I think he leads the league
for the third time in his career.
That's the most anyone's ever done it.
It's crazy.
We have to ask the question too.
Better football player, TJ or JJ.
I think JJ has said that he like concedes at the TJ now.
So does that mean that JJ is actually the better player
because he was able to say no. It's my brother. Right. Well say no right my brother right boy that's why he's a better person tj
tj what as far as we know better football player than he's a human being correct not the
case with jj correct we have not seen tj what do uh... frank tank walk we have not we have
seen jj so uh... yet this might be my Tomlin's best coaching job ever.
And it's crazy, when they were 7 and 4,
they were also like the most Mickey Mouse 7 and 4 of all time,
but that's because Mike Tomlin is a pretty damn good coach,
and so he was able to win all those games
when they were getting outgained, back to back to back.
Yeah.
I think this might be Mike's best job.
I actually think it might be his best job and his worst job.
Okay.
Because why wasn't Mason Rudolph playing earlier?
That good question.
Do you think he, like,
Mike Tomman actually did a terrible job.
And then Mike Tomman is such a good coach.
He was able to save his terrible job and do a great job.
But do you think his great job was only so great
because his terrible job was so terrible?
Probably he said, he put himself in such a hole
that he could be like, watch this.
Only I, he was like, basically he was Harry Houdini, just jumping into a river hole that he could be like watch this only I was like basically
He was Harry Houdini just jumping into a river all he's like watch this watch me just put us in such a bad whole cardinal
Patriots Colts now. I'm gonna get out of this. He was yeah
He's playing the game on expert mode this yeah, and the entire division finished over 500
That's the first time that's happened in a division since 1935 and
The entire division finished over 500
and three out of four of the teams lost
their day one starting quarterback.
Pretty crazy.
Nuts.
Pretty crazy.
That's how good my vision was.
So I think we should ask the question,
the curse of the terrible towel.
Did that have anything to do with it?
Because since the Jaguars disrespected the towel,
the Jaguar is slid into oblivion. The Steelers end up taking the Jaguar's disrespected the towel. Yes. The Jaguars slid into oblivion.
The Steelers end up taking the Jaguars playoff spot.
On the last day of the season, we need to ask, did the terrible towel incident have anything
to do with that?
I think you can't argue otherwise.
I think the evidence is quite, what's the Michael Scott?
Strong to quite strong.
No, he, I can't remember the line.
Goddamn it's late. when he has to do the
Deposition I just I just know that somebody disrespected a towel not to Sean Watson, but someone from Jacksonville
Disrespected a towel and then about two months later the towel had its vengeance. Yes, I'd agree. Don't fuck with the towel. Yes, I'd agree
Don't do not fuck with the towel. You expect to get screwed by a company, but don't expect to get screwed by a girl. No, it's I don't know. That's a great one. That is great one. When he, when he, when he did the line and he was like, you said you had to go to the bathroom. That was that was to get out of this.
He's like, now I actually do have to go to the bathroom.
uh... jadevin clownies sacked dance for seven hundred fifty thousand dollars is awesome
it was so cool they pretty much stopped the game
i love i love the incentives at the end of the season
uh... what
he goes
you said can i go to the bathroom you know i really have to go i've been drinking lots of water you went five minutes ago that was
the good about the now skin of the question
so but yet jadevin clownies uh... sacked dance was awesome. $750,000. I was like,
we need to see more of that because we talk about the incentives all week 18 and all these
guys trying to get like a catch or a touchdown. They should stop the game for every time this
happens to let these guys be like, it's very rare that you get to, it's basically watching
who wants to be a millionaire or they're obviously already millionaires or like dealer
or no deal. You just want $750,000. What, how do you react to David and clowny stopping the game and doing like he stopped his dance
he's like no I got more in me I'm gonna do some more yeah and then the crowd caught on to it after
while it would they should make it like when calorep con junior broke the streak right let the guys
take a lap yeah I five everybody in the front row who wants to see a millionaire become more of a
million yeah bring a suitcase a cash out.
Yeah, I like that.
Why not?
Although it's very weird seeing Jadavian Clowney wearing number 24.
Yeah.
That's just bizarre to me.
That should not be allowed for a defensive end.
And Jadavian Clowney, by the way, I looked it up the other day, he has actually made way
less money than I thought he would have made for his career.
He keeps doing one-year deals.
Yes, I think so.
I just like to travel. How much money do you think Jadavian Clowney has made in his career? He keeps doing one-year deals. Yes, I think he just likes to travel. How much money do you think,
Jadavian Clonney's made in his career?
He was the first overall pick.
First overall pick.
So I'm gonna guess he's made about $56 million.
He's actually made more than that.
So he's made 83, but he's been in the NFL for 10 years.
First overall pick, you think.
That's a lot of money.
I know it is, but I'm saying like for the player he's been,
he has been doing these one year deals.
It feels like he never got that like huge, huge,
because he went from the text, he was on the textons
for the five years and then he just started jumping
around every day.
It is kind of cool though.
He's doing the NFL way different than anybody else
except for like Josh Johnson, which is just go see the world.
Right, go travel, see the next day.
Robert Woods.
Robert Woods, yeah.
Brandon Cook's not by choice.
Yeah. Yeah. Okay, also Tyler Not by choice. Yeah. Yeah.
Uh, okay. Uh, also Tyler Huntley, Shadow Tyler Huntley, he tried really hard to cover
the spread. Yeah. It was, that was a wet sloppy game. I don't know how we don't have camera
technology to deal with rain because there was half of this game where you just weren't
watching. Yeah. If it was playing Pittsburgh, they'd have something to wipe off the lens
with. That's true. But no, you can't disrespect the terrible dog. Yeah, can't do that.
But yeah, so the Ravens one seed, Steelers in can't believe my Tom and like, I get it
because Pittsburgh, they judge everything on Super Bowls, they have a history.
It's a different organization than a lot like, then probably 27 of the other organizations
the NFL.
There's some organizations that are like,
we care about soup bowls and nothing else.
I would kill for Mike Tomlin.
17 years, never under 500, 10, 10 plus win seasons
and Pittsburgh fans just complain about him nonstop.
Well, cause to me, what that would mean
would be getting like 10 weekends a year
where you feel superior to everybody else on earth.
And all these extra games you're making the playoffs every now.
You get a week of anticipation for the playoffs usually two weeks, sometimes three weeks.
That would be so much fun. But then you become like a victim of your own success.
And now all of a sudden it's not good enough anymore.
Yeah, you need to win the Super Bowl. Okay, next game.
I have a question for you. Yeah. Mason Rudolph.
Is he going to be the quarterback in Pittsburgh next year?
He might be. He might be. He's playing well. Yeah. Mason Rudolph. Is he going to be the quarterback in Pittsburgh next year? He might be.
He might be.
He's playing well.
Big face and all.
Yeah.
Good story.
Yeah.
We've always been Mason Rudolph guys.
We've never said anything bad about it.
Nope.
He's wearing a nice like smokers jacket walking into the stadium.
TJ Watt was wearing the bully hours Jersey Jerry sweatshirt which fits.
Then he got hurt.
Then he got hurt.
Some were saying, although Jerry got blessed so I and I actually believe him he
said that if TJ Wad had torn his ACL he would have done a stream just trying to
tear his ACL and he would have done it yeah and it would have been great it
would have been great theater okay next game Texans Colts Josh Allen is oh my
man Josh Allen just got a huge put put there's a flag on the field.
Third and 13 run by Josh Allen. This is an epic meltdown by the dolphins. I don't know,
they're only up 14. No, just the season. Oh, yeah, the division. I think the vision. That's
insane. Yeah, no, this is it's crazy to think that there was a moment where the bills were six
and six and the dolphins were what? Defensive old thing defensive old thing dolphins were like nine and three. Yeah, it was we thought they
was really we thought they broke football. It was that tightness.
We scored seven nine.
Broncos where it's like these guys have figured out how to play football on a level nobody's
even thought of yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Anytime that's a good reminder Jake keep that as
reminder anytime someone breaks football chip Kelly. Yeah.
Kelly broke football.
It's never real.
You're like, Mike McDaniel got so high that he figured out how to do offense in a way
that the human mind has never comprehended.
Or he just had really fast guys.
And when one of the fast guys isn't playing, they don't look as fast.
Yeah.
Maybe that.
They have a lot of injuries.
Dolphins have had a shitload of injuries.
Uh, okay.
Texans 23 Colts 19. Uh, the Houston Texans are your AFC
South winners, champions, incredible turnaround, new coach, new quarterback going from the second
worst team in the league last year to winning the AFC South. It's insane. And CJ Stroud, he is so, so, so much fun to watch. He was throwing
bullets on Saturday night. That drive, he had to drive. It was 17, 17, you know, season on the line.
They have to win to get in. If they don't win, they're out of the playoffs. And he went seven for
seven. He took them 73 yards in seven minutes, uh, 12 plays for a touchdown, turned out to be the winning drive.
He's just so goddamn good.
Right off the bat, that deep bomb to Nico.
Oh, yeah.
The first thing I thought of when they did that, I was like, this is the Monday night football
game with Mike Vick against the Redskins all over again.
And then I found out later, they got the inspiration to run that play from that Monday night football
game, where it's like, let's, why are we going to wait to step on the throw? Let's just step on the throw with the first pass.
And it was, it was, it seemed like he could do no wrong after that.
Even though the Texas defense had a very, very hard time with Jonathan Taylor.
And John Taylor was incredible.
But CJ Stroud, one last thing I want to say about CJ Stroud.
CJ Stroud, if you had someone watch their first game of football and they
watched CJ Stroud, they would immediately
be like, that quarterback is elite because the like the calm and poisey has in the pocket
in the throws.
He was making like no leverage back, back foot, just darts right down the middle in the
middle of the field, like crazy throws.
And he's just awesome to watch.
I don't, I was thinking about it.
How many teams would say no, if they asked,
if you, if you called them up and was like,
CJ Stroud for your quarterback?
The bills, the chiefs.
I think it's four.
I think it's the bangles and the Ravens.
Ravens.
I think that's it.
I think every other team would probably say yes.
Yeah.
Especially given his contract.
Cause he's, you know, first year. what about the Eagles? They, they were in the
Super Bowl last year. The Eagles would 100% take CJ Stroud. I don't know what other
team thinks so. What other team would say no to CJ Stroud? I think the Eagles might
say no to them. Like is there any other team that would say no to CJ Stroud? If the,
if the GM called them, there would be no reason for the GM to do this. But like, they're
like, CJ Stroud straight up for your quarterback. I think there's four guys. Maybe the Cowboys, because I could see Jerry Jones being like,
I found that guy.
And he would be...
I took a flyer on him.
He's my guy.
And he would be an idiot.
Yeah, well, be an idiot.
I mean, this is C.J. Shroud is like,
in one year has gotten into this territory,
where it's like, this is a guy that is just,
he is that dude, and he is just like a sure fired slam dunk guy.
I actually think that if you made somebody watch their first game of football and it was CJ Stroud
playing they'd be like football is really easy. Yeah. Playing quarterback is simple. Yeah,
you just stand in there and right when they're when the big strong fat guys are about to jump on you,
you just throw a million miles an hour right to your receivers hands. Pretty easy. And there was a
great post game interview that SVP did with him where he was trying so hard
to get CJ Stroud to open up about something, get fiery.
He's very, very guarded and cautious with the media.
And then SVP just started to talk about Ohio State Michigan
and CJ tried to keep him at bay, tried to keep him,
and he was like, no, what about your teammate though?
He's a Michigan guy, you're a Ohio State guy.
What do you say to him?
And he was like, like yeah sucks that he went
there he finally like broke down and showed he seems like a cool guy but you
have to get past a couple of layers of him being like he still wants to be like
the mr. All-American right right right which is not a fault against him it's
like this you get right to start in quarterback job in the NFL you're the
face of a franchise you wanted to say and do all the right things. But when you broke down a little bit,
it's like, I think I would like hanging out with that guy.
Yeah, and I'm by the way, I'm happy for Texans fans
because they obviously, we were looting it to earlier.
Like, they went through many, many years
where they just, it was a carousel of guys.
And then they got a surefire no doubter into Sean Watson.
And then a lot of shit happened.
Yeah, it's like, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
a lot of shit happened.
And it's like, how can you have a guy that is that good
and now he's not on your team anymore?
He, because remember, before the
Sean Watson stories came out, he wanted to get traded.
Yeah, like, so that, like that timeline gets a little confused.
So to have that, like, taking away from you
where you thought you had a franchise quarterback
for the next 15 years, and then be able to get CJ shroud.
It's almost like a make it's like a ball don't lie.
So balls don't lie.
The Texans like that's good because you you were staring if you were Texans fan, especially
with how last year went and you were just going through coaches.
And now you have this guy that you're like, I have, I have someone I can roof for for the
next 15 years.
Yeah.
And shout out to the Texans and love you Smith.
Yeah. I can root for it for the next 15 years. Yeah, and shout out to the Texans and Lovey Smith. Yeah, in that one play that we all thought was,
consequential for different reasons.
Actually, ended up helping out the Texans a lot.
Also, I completely memory hold the coach
that was there before Lovey Smith.
Do you remember his name?
Yeah, fuck.
He was there for one year, right?
I had to look up his name earlier today, yeah.
He's an old guy.
Old guy, big collars on his shirt.
Give me the first letter of his name earlier today. Yeah, it's an old guy. Old guy, big collars on his shirt.
Give me the first letter of his name.
D.
Dave.
Yeah.
I don't remember.
David.
David.
I got it.
What is it?
Coli.
David Coli, yeah.
You remember David Coli?
Yeah.
And everyone's like, he got a raw deal.
He got a raw deal, yeah.
And so did Lovey.
Yeah.
But Dmitri Cohen's awesome.
Texas is awesome. as for the cults
So Jonathan Taylor was incredible nothing to hang their head about Jonathan Taylor
Well a little to hang their head out about because Jonathan Taylor was unstoppable. It was kind of like a perfect
Cap to the season like oh, yeah, it's good thing. We did pay that guy because he's really really good
Couldn't be stopped 168 yards and then you had the Shane Steak in time out into a fourth
and one where they didn't have Jonathan Taylor on the field and there's going to be a shot.
They decided to throw the ball to an Iowa Hawkeye.
Yep.
And he didn't catch it.
So it was a good play call.
It was a great quick play call.
The play call worked. The timeout before the play call was bad was stupid and not enough people are talking about that.
That was one of the dumbest timeouts.
Because it should have worked though. And there were people who were defending the timeout and being like, well, you're going down with the ship right then.
I don't care that like you know you need that play. You have to give yourself as many opportunities to still win the game.
And if they had kept that time out, they would have probably gotten the ball back with about 45 seconds.
And you would have obviously would have taken a miracle.
But at least you give yourself that avenue.
Instead they take the time out, call up that play.
Gardner Minshars Pass wasn't great.
Tyler Goodson also probably could have caught it.
But that sucked because Shane Steichen had an incredible first year
and it all fell flat there.
So when they say like that's do or die time,
you want your guys to be in do or die mode.
No, not in that point, you don't.
You want your guys to be in do or do or die mode.
Yeah.
So like you lost out on another opportunity to do
by taking that time out.
Right, you just died. You made it.
Do or die. Yeah, you made it to or die.
Yeah.
And then we got the fun safety at the end, which I always love.
That was, yeah, although the punter kind of fucked up, he should have, he, he,
there's one second line.
He could have just thrown the ball or kicked it out of bounds.
Yeah.
And waited till he hit the ground.
I just love a punter just running for their life because it's just, that's another one.
If you had someone watch their first, first game of football, they'd be like, what's going on here?
Yeah, you wouldn't have to like, The guy just running backwards for his life.
You remember when Harbaugh did that a couple of years ago
where he had everybody hold on the last play
and then just hope that their punter didn't get their ass kicked?
Yeah, that was awesome.
Yeah, I just love a random safety at the end
because you can always just be like,
that was the smart move.
Yep, that was the correct move.
All right, we got a big fourth down, a measurement.
The dolphins get the ball back.
Wow, with a minute 53 left.
This could be the ultimate melt up. Melt up. Yeah. My big go for two if they get a touchdown
for the division. I would say probably correct. Yeah. Probably your offense. Deflon digs
is not happy. The Tush push did not work. Although you kind of did a jump though. It did
like a lot of also put his. That was far. That was a rough.
He also kind of got it.
I don't know.
That's what people like that.
The ball right there is a is pass the first down line.
Yeah, but they stopped it so early with quarterbacks.
Yeah.
Okay, we'll update when we see the Dolphins final drive.
Titans 28 Jaguars 20.
What?
What?
Titans 20.
What? 28. Titans 28. He said 20. No, I? What Titans 20?
What 28?
28 Titans 28.
No, I said,
Titan 28 Jaguars 20 max.
Yeah, yeah, they definitely said 28.
All right.
Come get your boy.
Self on, cell phone.
Um, the Jacksonville Jaguars are out of the playoffs and all time, all time meltdown.
They were sitting, uh, in week 13 at eight and three going up against
Jake Browning in a Bengal season. They felt like it was they were just going to play out the
string and not try. And then they went and they lost five games out of their last six and
they're only win from the eight and three was against the Panthers.
Yeah, they lost to Jake Browning, lost to Flacco, Lamar Baker and then Tannnell.
Yeah. To end out the season. They were the one seed at one point and Jags fans were feeling pretty happy.
Prisco was dancing, his head was spinning. Yep. And then the schedule reared its ugly head.
This is not the schedule that Prisco had envisioned.
No, when he drew them up as super bowl contenders
at the start of the season.
Yeah, eight and three, and then went one and five
to close out the season.
I do feel bad for Jags fans. I do.
It was a pretty, because we even said on Friday,
we think the Titans are gonna win this game,
because it was Raible, and it was, you know,
Derek Henry's last game
And it's just so perfectly the Jags to have this type of game where even like how it ended with Trevor Lawrence not being able to get that
Remember that play he did against the chargers was against chargers where he did the Superman lunge
Yeah, his arm. He's arm was about two yards short
I hit the the play call was like Trevor just stick your arm out and then hope that it grows
about six feet in the air.
Yeah.
Like Michael Jordan in Space Jam and it did not work out for them.
It was a sad ending.
If you're Jaguars fan, I don't think that you put the blame on this meltdown on Doug Peterson
entirely.
I think you say Trevor needs to be better and Trevor was probably hurt.
And also what injured.
Yeah, and it was probably hurt.
And then I think you also have to take a look at your OC.
Yeah, I think they're going to bring Doug back.
Doug's not going to get fired for this meltdown.
Their whole offense was just clunky.
Their defense failed them.
It was just a very, it was a meltdown of a season.
And it was a step back because they were that team last year.
It was like, remember that, you know, I think they lost the
the Chiefs maybe by 10.
They're like, oh man, they, you know, they want to play off game. They went to Kansas
City. They held their own, the sky's the limit for the Jags. They're going to be on the
up and up. And Trevor Lawrence took a big step back. And the Jaguars took a big step
back and losing this game. It would be more shocking if it wasn't just so Jaguars.
I do have a prediction though that we're going to get the post mortem mind the Jaguar season and it's gonna be Trevor Lawrence was actually super,
super injured and that is the AFC's title.
The bills have put off to and the bills.
Oh no, did you get hurt?
The point.
Also Tyree was.
He got hurt.
Tyreex always hurt.
It's crazy.
Yeah.
And the Buffalo bills are your AFC East champions.
Holy shit.
All right, let's finish.
Well, there's nothing we're gonna do.
I know, but you need to be this one.
What about me, Jake?
You have a good future too?
The Grazpie Ft.
Yeah, well mine's only 20 to one.
Cause I had the start of the year.
But all right, let's talk about this game
after we finished the Jags real quick.
So the Jags join, it was the 2021 Ravens, which I think they, I think
Lamar got hurt, right? Yeah, he got hurt. So they started eight and three. The Eagles did
it in 2014, but they were also, that was also before there were seven playoff teams, which
is also crazy to be eight and three and not make the playoffs. Yeah. Bears did do it in
2012. That was a year the love he got fired. They finished 10 and six. Going eight and three and missing the playoffs is crazy. In a 17 playoff. It's
really tough. It's really, really hard to do. Hard to do. I just, I feel bad. I actually doubt
that Jags fans are listening to this podcast. If your Jaguars fan that that bears the courage
to tune into part of my take on a Monday after the Jaguars finish up their collapse, like
you were, you were a brave human being.
I know.
Thank you.
And I feel really bad too, because there are some like,
I was saying that, you know, we were talking about
what teams we wouldn't want to see in the playoffs.
And I said, I don't really want to see this version
of the Jaguars because they're just injured and hurt
and everything.
And I realized as I was making that argument,
I was essentially making the Florida State argument,
and there are Jaguars Florida State fans
that have just gone through hell.
Like if you talk to a Jaguars Florida State fan,
and you could be like,
hey, remember early November,
like that was awesome.
You had the world in front of you.
And now you just like everything
that could have gone wrong went wrong,
and I do feel bad for Jags fans.
As for the Titans, Derek Henry,
maybe last game in Titans uniform?
It looked like he took the mic after the game
and said thanks to all the kids up there
that looked up to me.
So when you drop a thanks youngsters,
I feel like that's probably good indication
that you've played your last game there.
Anyone out in a hell of a way?
Yeah.
158 yards, 153 yards touchdown,
ran all over him.
You could tell he was like, you had that, that extra bounce that Derek Henry bounce, um,
and the Titans, they got a lot of questions going to the off season.
But if you're a Titans fan, like, you have Mike variable, you have to feel good about
that.
Yeah.
And I've heard some stuff about the Titans.
Maybe not bringing them back next year.
It should be still up in there.
It would be great.
I know.
Every team would want him. Yeah. And every team in the AFC South should hope that variable does not get him back next year. It would be crazy. It would be crazy. It would be crazy. Every team would want him.
Yeah.
And every team in the AFC South should hope
that variable does not get brought back next year.
Yes.
He's a very good coach.
I'd be lucky to have him as a head coach.
And I think anybody in this room, right?
We'd all take him.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Second.
Yeah.
Max would take him.
Yeah.
In a second.
In a second.
Fuck yeah, I'd take him. He's fucking awesome coach. So yeah, Jags done and that was
what made the Steelers into the playoffs. So the Jags needed and also insured the bills
whether winner lose were going to get into the playoffs. So bills 21 dolphins 14. We could
do this right now. That is, it is crazy that the Buffalo bills have won the AFC. He's
after all of this. They have maybe had the craziest weirdest season
in terms of they've looked like absolute dog shit.
They've looked awesome.
This game was a perfect microcosm for the entire bill season.
And now the two seed where they,
they're packed to the AFC championship game.
They've what, the Steelers at home.
And then they're gonna get maybe the Chiefs.
If the Chiefs, you know, like depends if they're receding or not.
But yeah, put two home games for where the bills were when they were six or six.
They avoid the Ravens and championship games.
Six and six going against the chiefs.
It is crazy to think and this is this is a perfect microcosm.
You write down to the fact that they won this game at the end.
It's crazy.
The bill season has been nuts.
They've been dead.
I feel like we've buried the bills like three times on this show. Yeah. We even like slightly buried
them after week one. But we've also revived them because they give the whole speech before
the chiefs game. Like if you like, if you think the bills win that chiefs game, bet them
to win the Super Bowl at 35 to one because they're, they have seen so wide open and the
bills best is just as good as anyone else. The bill's worst is really, really bad.
Which is crazy is we got Josh Allen's worst in this game.
Yeah.
Like this was bad Josh.
They managed to beat the Miami Dolphins with bad Josh Allen tonight.
Yeah.
And I think they, they, it resueled Douglas might be hurt, which that's a big loss for
them.
Gabe Davis got banged up.
Dolphins also like, I know it's a meltdown for the dolphins.
They did have some significant significant injuries.
Yeah, their office align got banged up a lot.
Well, I mean, Jalen Phillips, Bradley Chubb,
Xavier and Howard, Moster, Waddle.
These are all pro bowl guys that are,
they have a top end talent type of team.
So when you lose that top end talent,
they look very different.
Yeah, Tua looked very confused and hurt tonight.
That was sad to see sad Tua.
And now they have to go to Kansas City.
And it's going to be Tyreeks Return,
Saturday night peacock.
What a storyline.
Wow, what a storyline.
Tyreek going back.
But he already played against the chiefs.
In Germany.
In Germany.
Yeah, I remember.
It's the true German. And the bills are the AFCs champions. They're going to be double the Jaffa favorites But he already played against the chiefs in Germany in Germany. Yeah, I think they'll probably be 10 if TJ
Was not playing the point favorite. Yeah, how many points do you think TJ's worth probably feel goal right?
Yeah, I mean, you got a feel goal. Maybe like one and a half to see if the spreads up yet. Well, it gets the spread
I'm gonna say nine and a half to see if the spreads up yet. Well, guess the spread. I'm gonna say nine and a half. Yeah
I'm not in half. Yeah, I think I think it will I think it might go I'll say
I'll guess nine I'll go with you nine and a half and I think it will end up being 10 maybe 10 and a half people are definitely
On the bills. Yeah, yeah, and
Lindenford night is 28 years old. Yeah playoff Lenny this this kind of sucks for a Steelers because I do think that the Steelers had a chance of
maybe beating the Chiefs because the Chiefs, like the Steelers matched up well with the
Chiefs and the fact that the Chiefs offense is so broken that they're not going to blow
anyone out and you could play like a low scoring grind it out game and maybe beat the Chiefs.
Bills have an offense that could blow someone out.
If TJ White plays though, I could see world
where the linebackers and the defensive ends on the Steelers
just make Josh's life hell.
True.
And force him into some weird plays.
True.
Or just like standard Josh Allen, weird plays.
Yeah, yeah.
But what about the Dolphins chiefs line?
Oh.
Oh, good question.
I'm gonna say, chiefs six. A hat of both here. And they're actually both surprising. I'm gonna say, that's my chief six. Six, and they're actually both sizing.
I'm gonna say chiefs, I thought,
I thought ten was too much.
I think it's, I think it's six and a half, four and a half.
I think it's chiefs.
Oh, what is it, chiefs three?
Chiefs one and a half.
What?
To open.
Oh, I would, I would hammer the chiefs.
And Bill's seven and a half.
All right, our lines are bad.
We were both bad, we're bad. Oh no, it's already changing. It's changing the live right now
Yeah, cuz it's just three. Yeah, bill still seven and a half. Okay, so I was right about the chiefs
I changed quickly a lot that changed quickly. I the dolphins are just I guess it depends on if most are in
Waddle play like if most are in Waddle play then I would see it being like
Yeah, three or four if they don't playphins offense is just not as scary as it was.
Also the temperature, the temperature tips lower.
Temperature matters a lot.
He's happens every time with the Dolphins and the playoffs.
They had scholar Thompson last year.
A few years ago, they played at Pittsburgh
and Matt Moore had to start.
It's just, it's crazy.
Oh wait, so I'm looking at the weather right now.
Kansas City, Missouri, Saturday, high of 14,
low of four. I imagine it's probably gonna be like
nine degrees. We're about to have a cold snap boys. I'm thinking I'm gonna hammer the chiefs. The chiefs wait again
we go back to what we said like a week ago
The chiefs might actually be very dangerous this playoffs. I think the Steelers can keep it close
because we got all the money. Patrick Mahomes people are actually disrespecting the chiefs and like they can't do anything
And it's Patrick mohms. It's Patrick mohms
So that really that that's that's all you got to say it's Patrick mohms in the playoffs. You don't want to bet against that guy
Okay, let's keep going
We can whip through some of these lions 30 Vikings 20. The big news is
Sam Laporta got hurt. Yeah, that sucks. Weak 18 injuries are the worst. So so Dan Campbell
said that it was not as bad as it looked, but it's still not good. So I think that probably
means like a two three week injury. So probably not going to help really, really bad for
their offense. The lions were I don't know. Would you say, like, I know that they were still alive
for the two seed, and I think it's kind of playing
like hindsight's 2020.
I have no problem with Dan Campbell
like trying to win that game,
especially because the Cowboys and the Eagles
don't play till later.
You have to get your team back into winning mode.
Right.
You have to get bad taste, man.
Yeah, bad taste.
And Dan Campbell, I think he's the king of bad taste.
I don't think that the lines have lost back to back games
Yeah, so they're consistent. Yeah, and the Lions also just won their 12th game last time they won 12 games good for the Lions is
1991 also last time they want to play off game. That's very good. So there you go
It's also the first time ever that the Browns lines and Texans have all made the playoffs. Wow
And that makes that makes sense. The Texans Wow. And that makes history. That makes sense.
The Texans started in what way.
2001.
That makes perfect sense.
I also am very happy for Lions fans because as the day was playing out and it was clear
the Packers were going to be in the playoffs and the Rams were down in the fourth quarter
of the 49ers, it dawned on me that the Packers going to Detroit and beating the Lions is
actually so, so, so much worse than if Stafford goes to Detroit and beats the Lions is actually so, so, so much worse than if Stafford goes to Detroit
and beats the Lions because the Pat the Lions finally win the NFC North first time in franchise
history.
The Packers are under rebuilding here.
If the Packers went and beat the Lions in the playoffs in Detroit, it basically like
wipe out the whole season like the Packers are still the Kings of the North.
So this is even though there's the the the weird feeling of having
Stafford come back. I think this is a far better situation than having the Packers potentially beat the line.
Well, I hope they win. I hope they win whether they were playing the Packers or the Rams, but this I think is better for
Lions fans. I think most Lions fans will agree. Also the Packers went there on Thanksgiving, right? Eat the shit out of it. Right. So that would be bad news.
But it would just feel like all this we made all this pro progress. Yeah. We that would be bad news. And it would just feel like all this, we made all this
progress and we're just right back here.
I still would feel very, very bad for Lions fans if Matt
Stafford comes and wins that game.
That would be tough.
Neither one would be great.
It would win the game.
Yeah.
This is actually spin zone.
It's just a great week in general to be in Michigan.
You have the potential to win a national championship.
Yep.
Tonight, Monday night, and then stay drunk until the Detroit lines get a home playoff game.
Yeah, that's a great week. That's a great week. It's a great week.
Beer season, baby. As for the Vikings, they got a lot of questions coming up,
but I was looking at it. The Vikings are the 11 pick. They can bring back Kirk
cousins and draft a quarterback. Like, I don't know where Michael Pentax and J&D
and those are going to go, but those are
pretty, two pretty good options.
They'd probably be right around that spot.
Yeah.
Right.
So, and the Vikings ended up losing four, four games in a row to finish the season.
I do feel bad.
The Vikings were a lot better than last year, a lot more complete team and Kirk cousins
got hurt.
Yeah.
Now was the theme of this season for a lot of teams.
And then Jaren Hall for reasons.
Jeren Hall happened something with him trying to find the hot hand.
Although Nick Mullens, I think that game did pretty much end on the almost an identical
duck.
Yeah, well Nick Mullens is going to give you one or two of those.
But this also puts Dan Campbell six and O against the spread against the Vikings.
So Jake, just remember we're going to auto bet Dan Campbell against the Vikings next year.
Both times are just the first time.
Both times. I'm going to say right now, both times. It's not a bet.
Auto bet. Okay. So it and the Lions defense is getting healthy. So they had
a Lee McNeil back who is one of their most important players, defensive
lineman and CJ Gardner Johnson, I think, is back to.
Yeah, he played today, but Branch got hurt.
I don't know if he's gonna...
That's bad.
Can we see how badly he got hurt?
That sucks so bad that Sam LaPorter got hurt.
I know.
Like, we can't see the injuries.
Turn injuries off.
You know what they should do?
They should just turn injuries off.
We had a wrist injury.
Brian Branch has a wrist injury.
My guess is he probably just played with that.
Yeah, you can play with that. Dan Campbell would look at that would look at that be like I'll cut it off. Yeah, I'll cut that I'll bite that wrist off
Yeah, what was the what was the stat that was just sent on our text messages? It's not it's not well
Technically, it's true
But the 49ers one of sat other starters
But the lines finished
12 and 5 tie with the 49ers and cowboys if If they hadn't blown that call against the cowboys,
they would have been the one seed. But yeah, they hadn't blown the call. The 49ers would have played to the right. Yes, correct.
But they still would have been ahead of the cowboys. Correct. They would have had the two seed. Yeah, you should feel bad. Yes. Yes.
Okay.
Next up, Saints 48 Falcon 17. This game ended up not mattering whatsoever. For a moment in time, the Saints had a path.
The Bears were not able to beat the Packers as we'll get to.
And the Seahawks did end up winning as well. So there was a moment, though, where the
Saints almost, they're like, oh, we could maybe get in if both these teams lose.
But the big story here is, James Winston being the greatest teammate of all time.
This was James week
Yes
So it wasn't just James though. So so what happened was at the end of the game
They got the the Saints got the ball in the one yard line and they got a pick
They got a pick the ball was at the one yard line going in and they
They lined up in victory formation and then James handed it off to Jamal Williams and
Jamal Williams you might remember last year, he scored 17 touchdowns.
Let the league.
Let the league had no touchdowns this year
because they basically asked him to be a fullback
after they had some injuries.
So everybody in the huddle according to James
and also according to their team captain, Eric McCoy,
they said that it's a team decision to get a guy
that got moved to fullback and that his buses asked,
get him in the in zone.
So out of victory formation, James hands the ball off to him, gets a touchdown.
Then after the game, we have Arthur Smith yelling at Dennis Allen at midfield and then Dennis Allen basically being like,
yeah, I know I agree with you.
I'm sorry.
It was classless.
I didn't tell my guys to do that.
Right.
So what we have here is Dennis Allen losing the locker room.
The whole team went rogue. It was a mutiny. The whole team was like, it was like in Rudy when they put their jerseys on a table
and they said, we want this guy coach. That's what they did for Jamal Williams. So then Dennis Allen had
to apologize after the game. He said, it's unacceptable. That's not who we are. Not what we're about. That's
bullshit. That you your team did the right thing. Well, so I actually don't think Arthur Smith was
Was wrong in in being upset because of the victory formation
That was the weird part like he was mad that they were lined up in the victory formation and then handed the ball off
But James turns out like he he was asked about it afterwards and he's like, yeah
We as a team decided we wanted to get your mob Williams to touchdown and
There was a reporter who was really sassy with
Jamis. He was like, do you feel good about that?
And Jamis was like, yeah, we as a team decided to do this.
And Jamis was like, do you feel good about it?
And the reporter was like, no, I don't feel good about it.
You have to play them two times a year.
And it's like, okay.
And Jamis was actually handled very well.
He was just like, I'm just trying to be respectful.
And like, thank you for your input,
but this is a, like the guys in the locker
and the huddle wanted to do this
and we did it for Jamal Williams.
And James just proves yet again
these best teammates ever.
When's this guy upset about like,
oh, maybe the next time the Saints
and the Falcons play each other,
they're not gonna like each other?
That's essentially what he was saying.
That's probably baked in.
Yeah.
Like it's the Saints and the Falcons playing each other. They already hate each other. You think that's probably baked in. Yeah. Like it's the saints and the falcons,
between each other.
They already hate each other.
You can't hate a guy more.
Yeah.
Yeah, he was like, James, like do you do you disagree?
Or the guy said, I disagree with your decision.
And he's like, you mean our decision?
Because James is like, it was a team decision.
So you disagree with the whole team.
Yeah.
And the guy had nothing.
He was just being a salty little bitch.
Yeah.
And also, James had been brought in numerous times this year just to take
knees right at the end of the game. So if James were mad, I guess the team are
Saints insider Ben Mints said,
people were mad. Yeah. Because they thought that it was beneath James Winston
to come in and just take knees. I agree with that. Yeah. I agree. So I don't have a problem with what
James did. I don't have a problem with what the Saints did. Also. I agree with that. Yeah, I agree. So I don't have a problem with what James did.
I don't have a problem with what the Saints did.
Also, I agree with Arthur Smith that he's pissed off.
Yeah.
Yes, Arthur Smith, you are pissed off.
Right.
And I probably have the right to be pissed off
because it's a victory formation.
It's a victory for it.
And also, you're getting blown out.
Your job is kind of on the line.
Right.
And then to have that happen at the end,
it feels like it's kind of twisting the knife.
I honestly think that if they had lined up in a regular formation in scored a touchdown
I honestly don't think Arthur Smith would have had a problem
I think it was the victory formation part that was weird and he watched it was like what the fuck is going on here
I also think that is it in you're in the moment you don't know that James in the the huddle
They all decided to do that. In the moment, it looks like they're just, like, they're basically doing a victory formation
to like, Oki-Dokyu and then score a touchdown on your face, which is bullshit, and given
like, just that.
Well, what happens next time is they get out and victory formation and then you have your
defense line just crush them.
Yeah.
So, and then that opens up a whole new can of worms where there'll be another fight.
I agree, the victory formation probably not the best idea.
And I don't have a problem with him scoring a touch.
And I don't think, I think the Saints probably had to do that
because if they had lined up in a regular offense,
Dennis Allen probably would have taken a time out.
Maybe, yeah.
And been like, what the fuck are you guys doing?
It just seems to me like they don't respect Dennis Allen.
And one of us.
Yeah, also happy for Jamal Williams.
That was cool.
Like your whole team to ride for you like that.
It's very cool.
And so now the Falcons have, I think they've got the eight,
the eight pick wrapped up, they're picking eighth
in the draft, that just means they're gonna get
another awesome receiver.
Yeah.
Or running back.
Or running back.
Yeah, but probably, probably a Dunes day.
Yeah.
They're probably gonna get a Dunes day.
And I have a take.
They're gonna have the best collection of skill players.
Well, my take is that if Taylor Hanuky
started the entire season, the Falcons are in the playoffs.
Yeah, I was gonna say, and we'll get this
when we get to the draft, because the draft does run through us
for one, two, and three.
I would maybe take a doonsay,
well, from our veneers in junior.
Oh, I think Tom Frennelli said that too.
Okay, so Tom and I are lockstep in this.
Yeah, yeah.
I don't think it will happen.
Right, I think I'd do it. It does, it does feel good having the top three picks. What are you gonna do?
We'll get to it. All right jets patriots
Memes congratulations big win from memes 15 in a row snapped now you start a
streak
Who I whoa, what was that are you in the ring? No, no not, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no Patriot is gonna be him wrapped up like sub zero in the snow or like a six-year-old going to preschool or whatever grade
You're in when you're in sixth grade kindergarten and just getting bullied what what
What
What whatever grade you're in when you're in sixth grade or whatever grade you're in when you're six years old
Yeah, yeah, and getting bull I'm sorry, but Bellicic got bullied today. Yeah, that is true. That was a weird way to say it
Yeah got bullied in the snow.
Yeah, they got smoked.
Was that it?
I don't know.
I haven't heard as much as as much rumors.
He did schedule his media thing tomorrow
for 7 30 in the morning, which is.
I thought that.
What if he, what if what if Bellicicic quits
before he can get fired?
That I mean, it probably it probably problem. It was a sad day.
McDonald's was there.
I was Slater's last game, Bella checks last game.
Everyone's everyone's leaving town.
It's sad.
The last dance.
It's over.
It's probably.
And it didn't go out well.
No, it did.
We got a better draft pick.
Right.
But like the product on the field was not great.
You can't have that much success for that long.
It's nothing last forever, Big Cat.
Unfortunately.
But the last five years?
They made the playoffs a couple years ago.
They beat the ball.
Back Jones is a pro blow.
Yeah, right.
It's a pro blow or?
Remember that Buffalo game, that was so much fun.
Yeah, so how many more games Mac Jones starts the NFL?
Why was he deactivated today? I don't know. That didn't make a lot of sense. do you more games Mac Jones starts the NFL? Why was he deactivated today?
I don't know that didn't make it a lot of sense how many more games over under six and a half over
I would take the under what NFL look who's start look who plays
What a shit load of quarterbacks coming into the draft a lot of injuries though. I'd say over. Okay
Jeff drussell started today
Yeah, Jeff Drisco, a Jim Tristro started today. Yeah.
Jeff Tristro.
A.G. Macarons played today.
Yeah.
Didn't start.
Didn't start.
That's true.
Didn't start.
Like the whole Vikings season.
So what, by the way, congratulations, Bill Bell check.
Tied the record for most regular season losses and also most losses overall.
So pretty impressive.
Sure.
Just means you've been doing it a whole set.
It's a total of a tie.
No, I mean, it's 165 losses, Dan Rees and Jeff Fisher,
he tied, and then including playoffs, 178 tied with Tom Landry.
He's a football lifeer.
I mean, yeah, he's got a shitload of wins.
Like LeBron.
Take enough shots.
You're gonna miss a few.
I do hope he quits though
That'd be great, wouldn't it? It would be awesome
He's like fuck everyone. You guys are you guys are not thankful for what I did you be walking away from a ton of money
Yeah, but he but with that offset if he gets a new job it probably has offset language, yeah
So what are you gonna do?
What do you mean you're the third pick
What are you gonna do I I asked you mean? You're the third pick. What are you gonna do?
I ask you first.
I need to see what you're gonna do. No, no, no? It's the opposite of tanking the future.
Well, no, but you tank.
You get rid of, you know, picks an ass that's
and as a gamble, the Patriots don't do that.
But you need a quarterback.
Also Hank.
But they're like, you just said there's a lot of
quarterbacks in this draft.
But one thing you're not realizing though
is the guy that doesn't do that is Bill Belletcheck.
True.
I don't, I have no fucking idea.
I've never been in this position where the draft matter is. You should think about what you're doing. I have never paid attention to fucking idea. I've never been in this position
where the draft batters are.
You should think about where you're going to be.
I have never paid attention to the draft.
I've never cared.
The Patriots usually pick 28th, 29th, 30th, 31st.
They draft a line, and they trade down.
They have like three picks.
Who cares?
I've never worried about the draft, ever.
So I have no idea.
I saw Marvin Harris and Junior in person on the field
in Wisconsin against Ohio State.
He was really, really good. I would like him on the Patriots. I heard Caleb Williams is
really good. Kyle Long when he was here on week was really selling me on him. I believe
Kyle Long. I don't fucking know. So you're gonna stay in Daniel's husband. LSU. Are you
gonna trade down or you stay put? I don't know.
You don't know.
You don't have a plan.
It sounds like you don't have a plan.
You have to have a plan.
I've said,
Sounds like you might not even get your draft card in on time.
I'm down from Marvin Harrison Jr.
Okay, and he's gonna slip right
because if you're gonna take Caleb Williams,
you're gonna take Drake Williams.
I didn't say,
I don't think you understand how this works.
Why would you not take Caleb Williams?
We hold the power, the picks in front of you, not you.
You need to make me an offer. Yeah, right.
We're not doing that. Oh, okay.
We're gonna see who's available,
when we're gonna see who's available when it comes to us.
I'm not the fucking patriots.
I don't know what they're gonna do.
Who is the patriots?
Robert Kraft is the owner of the patriots.
Jonathan Kraft runs.
So the way, if you're not the patriots,
you don't know what they're gonna do.
Why do you keep asking me what I'm gonna do?
Because you are in a spot where you're like Justin feels just
Palabliams is franchise quarterback no you were smart no you would take another
Cable and get rid of Justin feels
Listening to me what have I said you I swear to God you have not listened to showing last month?
Well you flip flop every show which I
One show you say one thing. No, I'm not every show, which I have listened to. I'm not the one show you say one thing.
No, I've not.
I've not.
I've not said.
No, I've said Ryan Poles, whatever he does, I'm down for.
But why did I just said?
Right.
Well, Ryan Poles is going to make the decision.
What decisions do you want him to make?
I don't care whatever he's going to make is going to be the right decision because he's
a smart guy and he put us in a great spot.
Got it.
That's the point.
Got it.
I've been saying that for a month. Do you have an idea or do you know what do you think he's going to a great spot got it. That's the point got it. I've been saying that for a month Would you have it like a an idea of or do you know? What do you think you yeah win?
We're gonna win interesting. We're gonna make moves
We're gonna fucking make bang if you are a driver range Rover
We can get chicks and it's gonna be sick if you were Ryan poles. Who would you take if I were Ryan poles?
I would talk I if I were Ryan poles is exactly what I would do if I were Ryan poles
I would and this is actually interesting because Ryan Poles
Deleted his Twitter because he's like I don't I don't want the outside you would never do that right so but if I were Ryan Poles
So he deleted his Twitter I happen to have Ryan Poles cell phone number so I texted him this morning
I said I saw you deleted Twitter good news is I have your phone number so we can talk at any time so the I will write
Yeah, he did.
He's he did crying face emoji.
He was like like the actual crying, you know, crying laughing.
I think it was maybe crying.
Like actually, like why is this guy texting me?
If I were Ryan Poles, I would open up my phone
and text my confidant
Podcasts are big cat and I ask them what to do and podcast a big cat would say well no, I'm Ryan polls right now
What are you talking about what if I would if you were both big cat and I can't be two men at once come on
Let's see which one would be other maybe what who do you want me to be the one that's gonna give an answer on what I just gave you an answer
I Ryan polls I'd ask big cat if I'm big cat, I trust Ryan Pulse.
What do you think is best for the future of the Chicago Bears?
Whatever Ryan Pulse decides to do.
If Ryan Pulse got hit by a bus, what would you do?
I think I'd be next in command.
And then what would you do?
I would trade every single pick and try to do my dream of having every single pick in
the first round in 2028.
Okay.
You just dropped a super deep.
I'll just, I would start tanking for arch.
Imagine just having all those picks,
just stockpiling all these picks,
just been like, look at all these picks.
It is nice looking at the draft order right now.
I'm a future's element.
Yeah, I'm addicted to it.
I'm addicted to the first pick.
Okay, so Hank, you have no idea what you're gonna do.
Would you like a quarterback?
I'd like Caleb Williams. Oh, interesting. Well, you have no idea what you're gonna do. Would you like a quarterback? I'd like Caleb Williams.
Oh, interesting.
Well, you could get Caleb Williams.
But I don't want to trade up.
Oh, well, then you can't get Caleb Williams.
But what if you don't take him?
We would trade in Washington loves UNC Corps.
You don't understand, Hank.
One UNC Corps.
Here's something, here's something I'll explain to you
that's very simple.
If Ryan Poles decides Justin Fields is the guy, I don't understand Hank one UNC question. Here's something, here's something I'll explain to you that's very simple.
If Ryan Poles decides Justin Fields is the guy,
he will trade the first pick to someone
who was going to pick Caleb Williams.
If he doesn't have category, I'm new to this draft.
I haven't, I've actually doesn't understand
that someone might like,
but what does it have that?
Last year, that's exactly what happened.
The Bears had the number one pick
and someone traded into the number one spot
to get Bryce Young, which was a mistake.
But he doesn't understand the concept
that if the Bears don't take Caleb Williams
that they're gonna just take someone else,
he thinks that they wouldn't trade.
Right.
They will trade to someone who wants to take Caleb Williams.
So, you're not gonna take Marvin Harrison Jr.
with the first overall.
Correct.
All right, then I'm down for it.
Give me Marvin Harrison Jr.
The Titans, the Falcons, the Giants.
The Titans, they might, the Falcons, the Giants,
the Giants, not Giants.
I haven't got a wall draft.
The Vikings, the Broncos.
Daniel Jones, a bajillion dollar.
I'm giving you all these teams
that would possibly trade the number one. The Broncos, the Ra Jones, a bajillion dollar. I'm giving you all these teams that would possibly trade the number one,
the Broncos, the Raiders, the Saints could.
You could maybe talk the Commanders to do it.
The Commanders, like there's so many teams
that would trade up to one if they, if the price is right.
Again, I'm dumb, I'm stupid, I don't know, football that well.
I didn't like the crying thing with Caleb Williams personally.
So like that wouldn't make me want to trade up for him.
Mine's a bit...
But, I like Jones a little bit.
Kyle Long was like, you really want Caleb Williams trust me,
so I do trust him, but...
So maybe I want Caleb Williams, I gotta talk to Ryan Poles about it.
Yeah, I'm good with Marvin Harrison Jr. though.
What I would like to do is trade up to the number one spot,
give big cats some assets.
I get the number one overall pick,
and then I flip that number one overall pick,
and I make assets off that asset.
I already got compounding assets.
I would love nothing more of Ryan Poles
besides the correct path is to trade number one pick,
to trade it to one of the two of you,
so that I can root against your team next year
to then get the number one pick again.
But what if that number one pick turned
into a multi-time Superbow Bowl winner that you could have had?
Then that would be awesome.
Yeah, good, good.
Could also turn into Bryce Young,
which equals another number one pick.
See how that works?
It's fun.
He really has no idea how the drafts were out.
Yeah, you've always taken Northwestern offensive lineman.
It's really like, wake me up one day three.
It's like who do we create it down? The concept. We drafted a lineman. It's any like, wake me up on day three. It's like who do we create it down?
And we drafted alignment.
Hank, we drafted Nikhil Harry once.
That was like the most exciting pick in the last 20 years.
The concept that Hank doesn't understand
that the bears, if they want to go forward,
Joseph feels would trade the number one pick
to someone who would take kill Williams is so foreign.
Yeah.
He thinks it will just be like, no, actually, yeah,
we'll just, yeah, we'll take Marvin Harrison Jr.,
we have no other option.
We'll respect the integrity of the order of the NFL drive.
Yeah, yeah, this makes sense.
Okay, Bengals of Brown's, all I got is Jake Brown's girlfriend.
Or wife.
I think it was his wife.
It was a great choice on her part to wear the body suit.
Yo, listen, Jake Browning, listen to the show, respect.
That's all I got.
Respect.
Listen, tip of the hat, nice work, Jake. Yeah, very cool, Jake.
It's, I mean, listen, the Bengals, the Bengals Browns game
was not a enjoyable watch except for that moment where everyone was like,
whoa. And she was up in Joe Burrows box.
Was in Joe Burrows box. And she looked great. Yeah.
She looks like a very, a very good choice for your wife, Jake.
Yeah, girlfriend girlfriend. Girlfriend. Oh, I thought it was wife.
Okay. Girlfriend. All right, better, better make that wife, Jake. Go front, girlfriend. Girlfriend. Oh, I thought it was wife. Okay.
Girlfriend, all right.
Better make that official, Jake.
Yeah, I mean, that's a good girlfriend move.
Yeah.
Her Instagram probably blew up during this game.
I'll say that.
What is it?
I don't know.
I should check, Jake.
Someone for you.
I'll send it to the group.
Yeah, look how you have it made.
I just want to see if she, I want to know where she got that outfit. Because it was a cool outfit.
Yeah, I would like one myself.
I think my curves would pop in them as well.
You can't tell the story of the 2023 NFL season without knowing where she got that outfit.
How would you actually think Jake Browning had when he got to the locker?
A lot.
A lot.
Yeah, good for the Bengals, I guess.
I don't know.
We got to see Jeff Driscoll.
Joe Flacco was sitting on the sideline. The Browns got bigger, bigger fish to fry.
It's just so awesome that we've reached the point where Joe Flacco needs to be
rested in a week 18 game together for the playoffs. Yeah. Okay. Anything else
from this game? I got nothing else from this game. I just sent her Instagram
over. So I'm just reviewing that to make sure that's her. Yeah, that looks like her.
Yep. I see she got the bodys suit. She's having a great time.
Body suit looks good. Also, the fact that she's wearing a JB body suit in Joe Burrow's box,
that's kind of cool too. Oh, that is cool. Go for either one of them. Yeah, right. It works for
everything. Should I like this? I feel like I should. I don't respect it. It would be rude for me
not to agree. Double to have it. There we go. Agre would be it would be rude for me not to agree double to have it
There we go agreed agreed
I like the fact that she showed support for our guy Jake right exactly exactly I want to encourage that type of behavior and just
I'm a fashion fan. I've never seen that type of outfit. It's incredible. It's incredible. Yeah, okay
Let's take a break and then we'll get to the afternoon games

had a great time.
The mountains were blue.
Were they not Max?
So blue.
There were so many mountains.
There were so many mountains.
It was the Himalayas out there.
It was incredible.
We had a table filled with empty blue mountains
that had to be replenished numerous times.
And course light is the official beer of guys being dudes.

Celebrate responsibly course brewing company golden Colorado. Oh, I forgot one early game
Corsbroon company golden Colorado. Oh, I forgot one early game.
Bucks nine panther zero.
Yeah, not a lot happened in this game.
Congratulations to the Bucks.
They've made the playoffs what four years they've won the division.
Was it three years in a row?
Yeah, Bucks win the NFC South.
Also perfect way for the Panthers to go out where it we've watched too much
Panthers football because we have every game on.
And then having it's so, so, so hard for them to score
points. It's very, very difficult for the Panthers to score points. And then having a touchdown
that ended up being a touchback was a perfect ending to the Panther season and ending with zero
points. Yeah. If you're a Panthers fan, you go through the stages of grief when you're about
to score a touchdown kind of you start, you start looking for the flags after they get in the open
field about 30 yards. And then you start looking for the flags after they get in the open field about 30 yards and then you start looking for defenders
that will corner flag them and take them out of balance
at like the two yard line
and then you won't score after that.
And this was the worst where you're diving into the end zone
and you lose a ball at about the half yard line.
And they actually did score a touchdown
later on in the game that was brought back from flag.
It was brought back from the flag.
Yeah, so this is just a bummer,
bummer of a year for Panthers fans.
Yeah, well, they got the first pick.
They did get the first pick in the draft, which is going to the bear.
Yes. And David Tepper is the war sonarance in the NFL.
David Tepper went, let's celebrate the accomplishments.
He went a week without pouring a drink on a opposing fan that we know of.
If David Tepper had any bits of smarts, he would have done two for once today in
the stadium.
Yeah.
That'd be nice.
And he just stood there and threw the second one at people or just buy him for Jacksonville.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Jacksonville needs beer.
Yeah.
Jacksonville does need beer.
Okay.
So we've got the box.
We'll get to the box.
Eagles match up later on in the week and Max having to go down to Tampa.
All right. Packer 17 bears nine.
All I wrote down was I'm sad.
Go get the best deal.
Okay, so those are my notes.
We're on to the draft.
Those are my notes.
I I was very sad about this.
I I thought the bears were going to win this game.
I dubbed it my super role.
I said they were going to win this game.
Turns out Jordan love is really fucking good. I dubbed it my Super Bowl. I said they were going to win this game. Turns
out Jordan love is really fucking good. I've done this speech before. You don't need to
hear it again. Life is unfair. The Packers going from Breffar to Aaron Rodgers. Jordan
love is just the shining example of how unfair life is. And yeah, Packers are good.
Matt LaFour is a great coach. They're in a rebuilding year and they got to the playoffs and the Bears
That sucked. I still am very optimistic about the Bears future, but that fucking sucked. You guys saw it
I was silent for like an hour and a half after the game
But I'm optimistic about the future that sucked a lot the Bears
Cannot beat the Packers. It's impossible for them to beat the Packers. They're gonna have to figure that part out
That's gonna be a big point. Yeah, so figure out how to beat the Packers or ten-a-no all time against the the Bears
And all the stats to love had the best season that a Bears quarterback would have ever had
They're just
There's nothing I can do it sucks. I hate I hate I
Hate this feeling so we never uh, we've never won pick.
We have no more pick. I just, I really, really wanted to win this game.
I wanted to get the Packers out of the playoffs.
Now I can't even revel in the Packers losing in the playoffs
because there's a rebuilding year for them and they made the playoffs
and they did it by beating the Bears in week 18.
And just every, it's like time is a flat circle.
The Bears cannot beat the Packers. They just can't and it's like time is a flat circle. The bears cannot beat the packers.
They just can't and it's just fucking sucks.
Everything sucks about it.
And the packers are a good organization
and the bears are aspiring to be a good organization
and we'll see if they get there.
All history shows they will not.
So when you pretended to have your organization
at the end of this game.
Is there any organization?
What?
Isn't every organization aspiring to be a good organization?
Well, no, there's some organizations that are good organizations.
Right, but every bad organization aspires to be good.
Yeah, there's been times in the Bears I don't even think
are trying to be good.
There's actually, have you ever watched Major League Baseball?
Well, there's a lot of teams that really don't give a shit.
Yeah.
The White Sox.
Yeah.
I had a lot of tweets that came my way
after you pretended to be hack big cat
Oh, yeah, and most of them were saying hey PFT can you ask big cats since he's hacked his comment on the bearers continuing to suck
Oh, I just want to give a voice yeah, no, they because they asked me to ask you that yeah, no, they stay your comment
They can't beat the packers. I it's I don't know what to say. They suck. Like we can't beat the packers.
We can't.
And the Jordan love is really fucking good.
And it's not fair.
He was throwing dimes.
And I'm, again, I want to be consistent.
Hank's, see, this is the problem.
Hank's on his phone.
He's not listening right now.
So when I say this next week,
I was like, you flip flop.
He's like, you flip flop.
You flip flop.
I am very optimistic about the Bears' future.
I think that they have the bones for a,
like their defense is good.
They have all these draft assets,
they have all this cap space.
I'm very optimistic about the Bears' future.
They played well down the stretch.
They have to nail the straf and they have to figure
out a way to beat the Packers,
because we can't beat the Packers.
And that is a problem.
And it makes me very sad.
And I'm kind of wish I didn't like sports.
So to answer your question, no, I just,
I know that there was one particular position
that the person that wasn't mentioned in any of that.
Max, what?
I'm just thinking about how good this is going to add
to that montage that we made of you. I feel like I'm staying, I'm not, I'm not, I'm not this is going to add to that montage that we made of you.
I feel like I'm staying. I'm not, I'm not, I'm not, is down in the dumps. I'm being
optimistic. I'm talking about the future guys. Isn't this a haven't mentioned just
feels once? Well, Ryan Poles is going to work on it. Isn't this a good thing that you
lost your gateway game? Because how much more crushing would this last have been if you
would play out of it? No, no, no, no, this, no, this, you would be, you would be suicide. No, I would, I want, of course, I would, if you said, what I rather have had
a chance to play, like this still hurts, it hurts the same. I would have loved to have a
chance to play to get in the playoffs in week 18. That would have been incredible. I, I,
Ryan Poles gonna figure it out. Okay. All questions. I should do like a forward email out
of office. I'm out of office for the next two three
months. If you have any issues or any problems, please forward them to Ryan Poles. He will figure it out.
And you trust him completely 100%. He's put us in this spot where I can be optimistic about the
bear's future for the first time in a very long time. Like they have everything in front of them. You
have to nail this draft. You have to also figure out a way to beat the backers can't beat the backers
do you have to win this you have to figure out the strap do you think the quarterback
position as it's uh... which they were really constituted is in a position to beat the
packers what do you mean there is hank i want to be refused gone they said that he's
staying what am i gonna say of course i want to gone the fucking gym gym nants and
Tony rollo started blowing Luke Getzy and then
immediately after there was two negative plays, they need new
coaching. But what the fuck, I trust Ryan Paul. So if he's like,
we're keeping heber flus, guess what? I put myself in a bad
spot here. So big cat, my question was, do you think that the
quarterback position as it's currently composited is in a
position to beat the packers
moving forward. Thank you. I appreciate this question, PFT. I am currently out of the
office. Okay. All all all issues or concerns. If this is an emergency, please contact Ryan
Poles. He is available. Do you think that will answer all your questions? Could you ask
Ryan Poles? If Ryan Poles were here right now, what do you think he will answer all your question could you ask Ryan polls if ryan pulls were here right now what do you think he would say to the fact that
uh... getting a younger quarterback earlier on the rookie deal might put your
team in overall better position
to take on the green bay packers and the Detroit lines mind you moving forward
as opposed to paying
a quarterback and then you have less money to spend on positions of need you
say that's an interesting proposition.
PFT. I would like to talk to my close personal friend, Big Cat and,
and discuss this with him.
But unfortunately, he's out of office.
We're just in a circular pattern.
Yeah. I don't know the answer. Wait, Hank has a question.
We're not good. Right now we're going to be good.
I think Hank, what's your question?
I need, we need to figure out, it's like
the fucking, it's like the enigma. We got to crack the code and figure out how to beat the
packers. We got to get our best guys on it. Let's get every, every brain we got. We got
to figure out a way to beat the packers. Did Tony Romo and Jim Nance announcing the game
enhance your experience? No, it made it see what's nevigantly worse. We have breaking moves suck.
This is sad breaking news. Oh, no.
Arthur Smith is a lot of the pros in the Falcons.
That sucks. Moment of silence for Arthur Smith.
Damn it. He'll fall on his feet. I think he'll be okay.
He'll be all right. We love Arthur Smith It sucked how that all went down
Maybe back to the Titans maybe maybe yeah, maybe back to the Titans
Okay, have I answered all the questions?
Maybe coach to the commanders maybe coach the commanders. We got FedEx right on the side of her building
Have I answered all the questions you've had Hank and PFT as a no Hank had one more
Did you forget it Hank remember you raised your hand and everything?
I called on a rumble question. Oh, yeah
And he was doing he was mimicking Jordan loves throwing patterns and I wanted to fucking throw something through the TV
Just okay. I do one more question. Yeah, yeah, just from it's PFT. Yes, but from a technical standpoint
I'm not I'm asking your question.
It's a question for me or Ryan Paul?
I'm asking your opinion as a football fan.
Okay, you watch a lot of football, right?
Yeah, I do.
But you don't watch college football.
I do actually watch a lot of college football as well.
Okay, so technically, from a physical standpoint,
right, who do you think is the more complete quarterback?
Justin Fields or Caleb Williams?
That's as a football fan.
That's a great question, PFT.
Thanks. I'm gonna have to forward it to Ryan Pol.
No, this I have been working.
He doesn't have anything to do this.
I'm asking you've watched a lot of college football.
Like in a vacuum.
In a vacuum.
In a vacuum.
Yeah, that's a great question.
Alright, so I'll say PFT, that's a great question.
Thank you.
I'm going to have to watch some more tape myself to give a better
picture.
Better watch a lot.
I have watched a lot, but I would like to see.
I would like to interview these guys.
But I didn't think you'd watched any of Caleb Williams
and then you just said, no, I've actually watched
like all of Caleb.
Well, I need to really break it down.
Also, last time I talked to Caleb Williams
was when I DMed him and I said, hey, come to Madison,
we can make some sick T-shirts.
So he hasn't responded to me.
That was two years ago.
Sounds like you really liked the idea of Caleb Williams
being on one of your teams.
It is an option that we're weighing.
Okay.
What about you?
We got to beat the Packers.
We got to find a way to beat the Packers.
We can't beat the Packers.
And it fucking bothers me to no end.
And I really wish we had won this game
and all the future is bright, I think.
If you make the right choice. If you make the right choice.
If you make the right choice.
It's a, I'll say this, here's a definitive thing.
This is the most important offseason
for the Chicago Bears as a franchise.
They have to make the right choices.
Whatever the choices are, they gotta make the right choices.
I would lean, kill lips.
What about a 10?
Oh, wait, wait, we just got a lean.
Lean. That's a lean. But that's you talking
at that. That's not Ryan Pulse. That's not that's that's my personal
lean. Yeah, but that has nothing to do with. It's not an official
play. I have been released in official play. And if the lean turns
out to be right, I'll take credit for the lean. Think of the money.
I thought of the money. Max. I've thought of the money, but I love
the picks to know and kill Williams cried that one time
It's also interesting because you could say that last offseason was the most important decision that you guys had because you could have taken
CJ Strauss that was not an option, which you just said not an option what any team would be lucky to have that was not an option
They were they were they did have the number one. They were in a transition period
We're still trying to figure out was we last offseason Ryan polls got an a plus you got DJ more in the first pick
You can't like that was an incredible hall one of the worst trades ever by the pan
We get the second pick what would you rather have DJ more and the first pick or CJ shroud?
That was not an option at the time
Nope, it wasn't I think it wasn't. We weren't in that mindset.
We've since changed mindsets.
We're in a growth mindset now.
Okay.
So what was your mindset then?
We were in a when now we were in a rebuild collect assets mindset is rebuild also another
word for growth.
No, because we didn't rebuild that well we're still rebuilding we're still growing we're
growing boy we got to drink our milk we got to get our eight hours of sleep we're
growing okay we're we're we're great eaters we got to we got to grow some more
got it what this gonna be a great growth season I think I nailed all the answers
I think he'll Williams he's so fucking fun. Good. And he would be he would also just make
me excited for a couple more years. Now would you be upset until you get asked that? And then I'd be sad
again, but it would have a couple years of being excited. Would you be upset if I traded you the
second overall pick for the first overall pick? And then you know, tossed in maybe some second
rounders. You promised to take Drake May and we took Caleb Williams with that make you upset.
It might make me a little upset.
Caleb Williams never lost the Packers.
That's true.
So there is that.
Yeah. That's a great stat.
All right.
Draft goes through us.
Yep. Draft goes through us.
Hank still doesn't understand that,
but Draft goes through us.
Okay, next game.
Packers are really good, by the way.
I know that I'm a sore loser and being a bitch.
I don't know what you want to say.
Jordan loves really good.
The running game looks good too.
AJ Dylan's awesome.
And that is what a model organization looks like.
When they rebuild, they're still on the playoffs.
That's how it's done.
They have a great coach.
They have a great infrastructure. They figured out the hack to quarterbacks, draft them, sit them,
make them good, make them hallfamers, then you set them free and just rain
terror on everyone for 15 years. And then they go to the jets. Yeah, and then
they go to the jets. And then they just restart the whole fucking thing and I
cannot believe it's restarted again. But here we are. Jordan Love is the real deal. There, I said it.
Happy Packers fans.
Okay, Giants 27 Eagles 10.
Now we switch the focus.
Giants short, wait, hold on.
I don't think I asked a question yet.
Giants 27 Eagles 10.
That is the correct score.
Yeah, that's not a question, but that is the correct score.
How does that score make you feel?
Bad.
The answer to that question is bad.
Yeah, and with AJ Brown, do you think he's really hurt or do you think he was upset that
he fumbled?
I think he was hurt, but I think he'll be okay next week.
Are you sure?
No, I'm not sure.
I'm not a fucking doc.
I, oh, I mean, I'm trying not not to curse
and get angry during your mom.
Is your mom telling you that?
No, I'm not.
I'm not telling you that.
All right, so let's talk about something like
more lighthearted.
Jalen hurts middle finger.
How does that look?
He came back in the game after that.
Yeah.
And then I think he threw a pick.
He came back in the game and then threw a pick and then I think you threw a pick He came back in the game and then and through a pick at well the Cowboys started blowing out so then they
Rest of the starters. Yeah, you guys got whooped
Yeah, bad football team you got whoop. I said they were a bad football team last week
But what about AJ Brown's speech Nick Sergiani? Yeah, well they got me you know, but
There's still a bad football team and And I said, I didn't say that that was,
that changed my mind.
I said that opened the opportunity to change my mind.
God, okay, I got it.
So my E-Rate now, yeah, my mind's not changed.
Yeah, correct.
What about this quote from Cereonia for the game?
We lost five over last six.
That doesn't discredit the rest of the season.
You are as good as you are. Fuck, I can't even, I don't know.
I'm not what I'm saying.
The team is bad football team right now.
I don't care what they were doing at the first 11 years.
So you are just, you're disagreeing with Nick Sireon.
You do discredit the rest of the season.
I'm disagreeing with everything Nick Sireon is saying.
It is like saying how come no one's talking about all the flights
Bill Clinton didn't take on Epstein's joke. Correct. Yeah. What do you think you win this game?
It's crazy that the Eagles are in the playoffs. Also shout out all the people who
had the Eagles win total over. I think it was 11 and I would have lost my
I said they pushed. They were 10 and one and they pushed.
Max was brutal.
Max was also saying earlier that he would trade seasons
with all of us in a heartbeat.
Yeah.
Like going to the playoffs, limping into the playoffs,
you would rather be in this room.
And also Shane's in this room.
And Shane has the fourth pick overall.
Fifth.
Oh, shit.
So yeah, boys are loaded.
We were stacked. That's not what I
and Max would trade this entire. That's not what I said. What I really we won. What I said
is a better year. Anyone in here wanted to trade their pick for a playoff spot for our
playoff spot, I would take the pick. I do call him pick. I'm gonna have to get back
to you after I talk with Josh Harris. Okay. Ah, Max, can you win this game on Monday night?
The fact that the three point favorites are in sync.
Yeah.
I guess, as bad as the Eagles played today,
the bucks also looked terrible.
Yeah, they did.
They looked bad.
So that's why I guess it kind of makes sense.
And we did already go to Tampa on Monday night football and beat the bucks, but that was
a different. Those, those, those Eagles.
This is this.
Eagles.
Well, I mean, they're legitimately the worst team in football.
Are you worried that because you've gone to Tampa already this year that they have the
tape out on Jalen Hertz scrambling to the right and then throwing it out of bounds?
Your favorite play.
You kept saying that today.
The number one receiver was 90 year old.
That wasn't just this game.
He does like you like saying it.
Well, you kept it.
You kept being like, look at this, look at this.
There's no way anyone was open at all as soon as AJ Brown went down.
Sounds like Jalen Hertz is a system quarterback.
I would love to look at any quarterback in the NFL
if their top three weapons go down.
Well, let's see.
CJ Stroud had a lot of guys, right?
Yeah.
Patch from home.
Nico Collins.
No one.
Patrick Holmes lost all his weapons.
Travis Kelsey is number one.
He's old.
Yeah.
Nico Collins wasn't their number one guy at the start.
Yes, he was.
Tank Del.
Tank Del was their number one.
It's not the number one at the start of the season. You're right. He's right. He got to their number one. That's he was. Tank. Tank. Tank.
Tank.
Tank.
Tank.
Tank.
Tank.
Tank.

Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank.
Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank. Tank.. Is your for like, I'm just saying a weapon, offensive weapons.
I don't know about that. Max.
Would you know, as bad as the offense looks, the defense does not look any better.
Yeah, Tyrod carved you up. Second, afflick it.
Max was saying that too. He's like, he held them to three points in the second
up. No, yeah.
Six-win giants with Tyrod Taylor.
You're like, man, we held them to three points.
No, yeah, Mapatrisha transition has gone poorly,
but I don't know.
You thought you were gonna win this game,
and this is a get right before the get right.
I did not say that.
No, but you needed them too,
and they looked like dogs shit.
Yeah, no, wait, at no point did I say there,
I pretty sure last week I said that they should be dogs
in this game.
Yeah.
So what about next week?
Must win?
Nope.
Not a must win.
Switching.
You're switching it up.
This guy made every inconsequential regular season game
a must win and he's not making the play.
Wow. Well, it's spoiler. This guy made every inconsequential regular season game a must win and he's not making the play.
Wow.
Well, it's spoiler.
Well good news for you, Max.
The gauntlet is over.
I mean, the gauntlet.
Yeah, the giant.
The gauntlet is over.
You, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, man, the thing the Eagles were 10 and one a team that beat the bills. I
You guys think that Nick Sierra on it will be fired if they lose it next week. I think he might depends on how they lose
That's the one thing I don't think it matters
That's the one thing I respect about Philadelphia is they do not tolerate shit. Yeah, I think it depends on how they lose
What's a scenario
Miss kick at the end of the game. Like, down how to miss kick.
The Eagles were 10 and one. I understand. They're not good. They were 10 and one. He's
he's coming off of the calling him a coordinator after coming off of wins against the chiefs
and the bills and the dolphins. Look at look at the drafts. That's so sick. One, two, three.
Oh, look at that.
And I've got nine, no big deal.
I'm a back pocket.
Nine.
I love that for us guys.
Yeah.
We're going to be the number one draft podcast in America.
Yeah.
It's going to be great when you trade Justin Fields
at the Patriots for their second round today.
What?
That would actually be great for the show.
Yeah, that would, yeah, that would,
if we got a second for him, that would be great. Yeah, that would yeah, that would if we got a second for him that would be great
Yeah, no, I think that's gonna happen. Oh, and then the and then the Patriots go more
Chekko and Bellicic check goes to the commanders. Yeah, we're just fucking roll just like
I like a whole thing
Just share it with everyone else. I'm in next year is gonna be fun. I'm in yeah, uh, those are gonna suck. Okay max
I am I am worried about max because I really wanted him to win this game.
I want him to win Monday night football.
I want to get him up.
It's the box and they're gonna win.
It's the fucking buck.
I want to crush him.
We can't be crushed.
For the Cardinals and the Giants.
They just beat the Panthers by nine points.
But they kick three field goals.
But that game didn't really matter if you won that game. Like the-
What do you mean that game didn't matter?
Oh, I thought you were talking about the-
The problem is, Max, if they lose on Monday night by like 20,
we're not gonna get sad, Max.
Yeah, he's gonna be like fire, cereal.
He's gonna be like, this is a joke of a season.
Fuck everyone, I saw this coming for a million miles away.
They need a beat.
They need a beat, the box. This is smoke them
They're gonna smoke them. I okay, but then we go to we then we need we need no no this is what we need then word
We need that we need they need to beat the box and I'm sorry lines fans with the Rams beat the lines and then
The Eagles go to the Cowboys. That's what you need that
That's what you need. That's best for the show. That's better than that. That was for it. Tell us what Max, Hank and Tiff, all in the big D.
There's no way that game would be on Saturday.
It could be.
You never know, Max, 50, 50, so.
That's the game we have to go.
Yeah, I think I might go too.
Fuck it.
I'll film.
Oh, actually, I'm not going to go.
What am I saying?
But you guys, I'm not going.
I'm not going.
No, I'm actually going. Yeah, you and Hank are going to have to go down there. I'm not gonna go one of my say, but you guys I'm not I'm not going. No, I'm actually going Yeah, you and you and Hank are gonna have to go down there
I'm not going to be awesome. Yeah
Meem's can I just make one request for this trip you guys are gonna make you're gonna bring a good camera
But when Max gets in a fight, please just use a cell phone camera so that we can also feel like it's you know the real raw
Footage also the Eagles playing on Monday night. There's no way that they would put on True true true true. No, no, no, I'm saying even on Sunday. We have to go. Yeah, no. Yeah
Come on. No, yeah, please. Yeah, I think you're Sunday now. I think you probably should go to that
I know that's what I'm rooting for now
I want I want the Eagles to go to the Cowboys because Matt can't he physically would not
Be able to like be devastated if they lost the Cowboys in the playoffs. Yeah, it would devastate him
There's nothing you can say you can't be like I knew we sucked if you played the Dallas Cowboys in the playoffs
You would be a wreck if you lost that game
Yeah, okay, so all right. We got there.
Okay.
Next game, Cowboys 38,
commanders 10, PFT.
This game went about as expected.
Showed a little fight in the first quarter, which I was happy to see.
And then Ron worked as magic.
I was a little bit afraid that they were going to do something stupid like beat the Cowboys.
Yep.
Now I'm just looking at the second overall pick.
And you know what?
I, I feel good about the way the season ended because Ron's gone. something stupid like beat the Cowboys. Yep. Now I'm just looking at the second overall pick. And you know what?
I feel good about the way the season ended
because Ron's gone.
We're moving on.
We're changing everything.
Everybody that's been around and been a part of my
terrible, terrible franchise and sad state of affairs
is gonna be gone.
New ownership, probably a new name, new head coach,
maybe a new quarterback, second overall pick.
I'm just, I'm feeling good about, we've been,
we've been in an open relationship with Ron Rivera
for the last like two months of the season,
where he's known that he's been fired,
but we're like awesome.
We're gonna talk to people on the side.
It's gonna be an open relationship for us,
not for you Ron, but we're,
I'm looking forward to the coaching search,
more than anything, that's fun.
It's feisty.
We get to track airplanes.
It's plane track in season.
I'm gonna be all over that.
I've looked at my short list
that I'm supposed to be looking at of coaches.
I'm thinking maybe, slow-ic.
Maybe we bring back a guy.
Maybe the only way to defeat the graphic
that gets used against us all the time
of former Washington head coaches that were on that 2013 team that now went on to achieve great success
everywhere else.
Maybe it's to bring one from home.
Yeah.
Maybe we bring slow at home.
I like that.
Or maybe I don't know, we're probably going to give B&M a shot at interviewing for the job.
I want a new coach.
I want a new coach.
We're going to have a new coach.
I don't think it's going to be B&M.
He's got just enough stink of the old guard on him.
He was around Rivera.
He probably picked up too many bad habits.
Also, Ron Rivera, great guy, good human being, terrible football coach.
I'm glad I,
I'm very better human being than coach.
So much better.
As good of a coach as he is, he's probably infinity times better of a human being than
he is coach.
I'm just, I'm very excited for the coaching search. I'm excited about Bella check possibilities. as he is, he's probably infinity times better of a human being than he is. Great.
I'm just, I'm very excited for the coaching search.
I'm excited about Bella check possibilities.
I'm excited about just torturing Hank with that.
Yeah.
I don't know if I'm totally excited about him being the head coach, but I am very, very,
I'm very pumped up to just be like, Hank, look, look who I got.
Yeah.
Your guy Bill.
I think you're best friend.
I would be excited for Bill to break the all time record for coaching wins on my sideline rather than the Hank sideline.
I'm just pumped up for an offseason where the sky's the limit. This might be the greatest
offseason in part of my take history. It feels like this is going to be this is going to be
it for us. We're all going to make moves to just become awesome. Yeah, we're going to have six packs.
Yeah, we're in such good shape.
Yeah, diet starts tomorrow.
Our team's gonna be awesome.
The three of us are probably gonna be in like,
over under seven super bowls for the three of us
in the next 10 years.
What if this, what if it's,
I'd say over?
It comes like a bizarre world,
not obviously excluding Hank,
because he's won super bowls on this podcast,
but what if it just became,
comes a bizarre world, this off season?
It could.
It's just switch and it's just like,
we're now a podcast of winners.
He could, it could very easily become that.
I saw Josh Harris also up in the booth today,
and he was wearing a W hat,
again, not having the word commanders,
so he's jacked at all.
Yes, big cat.
I got a question for you, P.F.E.
I am very excited to say.
Your excitement.
I'm very excited. Right very excited to say your excitement. I'm very excited.
Right.
Because I share your excitement.
It's clear we're both very excited.
I noticed though you didn't mention the quarterback position.
Right.
Well, that's what there is, you know, 22 positions on the football field.
Right.
But what will you be doing with the quarterback position?
We're going to evaluate it just like we evaluate any other position.
As far as, would you like to, you could actually ask Ryan polls for some help if
I might can I have his number? Yeah, I mean
There's help if there's one guy that knows the quarterback position is Ryan polls and I'll be the first tell you
I don't watch as much college football as you do big cat. I only watch probably kind of seven or eight hours of college football every weekend
Yeah, but I'm not you know, I'm not the expert on Caleb Williams.
I'm not the expert on Drake May.
I'm not the expert on Jaden Daniels.
I'm not the expert on Michael Pinnix.
So I'm going to leave that to the people
that know more about the sport.
That I do.
Smart.
But as far as I'm concerned, every position
from the top down head coach, all the way to the long snapper,
to the kicker, everyone except for Trustway is competing for position next year.
Our follow-up question, if you had a lean, what would your lean be?
My lean would be that I'm leaning towards every guy that needs to prove himself next year,
shows up and training camp and works their tail off.
Okay.
So you don't want a new quarterback?
I'm not here to say whether or not I want a new quarterback.
Sam Hall has certainly done some good things for us this year.
He's done some bad things for us.
I'm just saying,
Oh, that goes off right now.
You have, oh,
man, it's not to make a pick.
Yeah, one minute left.
Wait, where am I picking?
Can't remember,
just one number one overall.
We don't know who.
Can't William's off the board.
I'm taking, I'm picking up the phone
And I'm making calls I'm seeing if anybody wants to trade up. Oh wait wait. I'm gonna call right now
Yeah, it's Hank Lockwood. Hey Hank. This is PFT
Sorry, I'm a little bit sleepy. I would just say the night over at my girls place
Something to get in bad cell reception because it's at 18 T stadium
I'm just curious if I could move up to the number two pick and
offer you every first-round pick for the next three years yeah yeah absolutely
and i thought that's not a deal and so i think you're on the clock
marvin hairs and jr michael pennics
what you're taking both of you you get a two for one yeah
oh okay you really don't know the thing i think i thought Michael Penix. You're taking both of them? You get a two for one? Yeah. Oh, okay.
You really don't know the draft.
Hank just thought that he traded up
and didn't give you his third.
Oh, and he still has his head.
Yeah.
Holy shit.
That's how the draft is done.
He doesn't know how the draft is done.
I think I just got drafted by Hank.
Okay, but you want a quarterback.
I think we should kick the tires on a quarterback.
Yeah.
And listen, let's say I'm gonna compete.
Sam Hell had some very good parts of the season.
I'm just gonna go with the party line
that Sam out was injured.
Yeah.
He was hurt.
He got knocked around a lot.
I'm not gonna forget the moments of joy
that Sam brought me this year.
The soupie.
Well, you got to, we also got to say,
in this is all three of us,
we have to just say that, you know,
it's gonna be smoke screen season soon
We can't give away what we want to do. It's true
So we have to just make sure that everyone's confused as we are
I'm gonna wait until all the facts come out on all the players find out whose mom was a prostitute
Mm-hmm how they did on the S2 condition test cat or dog cat or dog
Maybe see if anyone want to work out as wide receiver and then I'm going to make the decision based on that information.
Right now, you're asking me to make a decision based on incomplete information.
Yeah, I love that for you.
But yeah, I would like to have you either Caleb or Drake.
Yeah, okay, so there you go, you have our leans.
I'm leaning either Caleb Williams or Drake man.
Well, I'm leaning Caleb, so you'd have to lean Drake man.
Unless you lean away, Unless you trade your pick.
Right.
To me.
Right.
In which case, in which case I might be,
I might start to lean Caleb.
Or you'd have Marvin Harrison Jr.
Might judge the sales.
You did not happen to just shut up about that.
It's an option.
I'll just say it.
I want Drake May.
I want Drake May.
I want Caleb Williams.
But if we moved up to number one,
I might need Caleb Williams.
And the three slot.
Okay, well, you're not gonna get him.
That's not happening.
That's a three slot.
Jesus Christ.
No, and you never know big guy.
He just said he wants Drake May.
Because you, I want Caleb Williams.
I have the one pick.
If Big Cat takes Marvin Harrison with the number one overall pick, like you have, then Hank
thinks that I'm gonna take Drake May with the second.
Right.
And then Caleb's gonna fall to him.
He just can't.
But, but wait, Hank, I'm confused.
Don't the Patriots wouldn't they take calls
and then load up with a haul and trade back?
Nah, you need a quarterback.
You need a franchise quarterback.
I'm very excited for this to become a draft podcast.
Yes, we're gonna break down so much.
I'm also very excited for us.
I'm gonna take Caleb Williams, Drake May and Hank
to not have a quarterback and be like,
how did this happen?
Yeah, I don't understand.
We had the number three pick.
Uh, okay.
Uh, Cowboys, I don't know.
They now get the two seeds.
So they're going to have at least two games at home if they win.
So we won't find out like the Cowboys are live because they could easily just, you know,
they play if they get to the energy championship game against 49ers, all they got to do is
win one game. So who they play in the second round. They would potentially play the depends if there's
recedes or not. Lions, it's all home. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I would I would like to see that. Yeah.
That'd be a fun game. Cowboys Lions. Yep. Redo it. Induck Jimmy Johnson with the Ring of Honor again.
Yeah. Have the same rafts. Or like kick them out before the game and then bring them back in.
Yeah.
Okay.
Rams-Niders will just wrap up real quick.
Pukin'akuah 105 receptions, 1,486 yards, rookie record on both accounts and credible
season.
Also, this game was fun because it was a week 18 game with two playoff teams and Carson
Wences was playing Sam Darnelt. Yep. Who would have thought? Pretty incredible. And they ran Carson
Wentz into the ground. 17 times. They gave him the ball on 17. I think 17
design cares for the most. Yeah. A couple of scrambles, but I would say he
probably had like 13 or 14 running plays. Yeah. I think they were just trying
to get him injured. Yeah. I think like Vaze already sick of his shit. Yeah. I
think so too. And we also had a great great all-time Carson Wentz play too where he was getting sacked and he was falling onto his ass
and he tried to throw the ball back. He like he passed it backwards, but then his ass was too big.
Yeah, so his ass was on the ground on a fourth down. Yeah, it was, but yeah, that was a fun
fun game to watch Carson Wentz for Sam Donald and week 18 to play off teams. Yep.
It was a vanilla off.
Like the offense is both teams were running.
They were saying we don't want, we don't want to show you anything that we're actually
going to use.
Yeah, because we might play again.
We're going to run a hilariously bad offense intentionally.
Right.
Because if the Rams win, they'll, they'll go, or most likely go back to San Francisco.
Yep.
And, uh, yeah, I mean, the Rams are dangerous.
I'm going to keep saying it Rams are dangerous.
Officially dangerous. Isn't it crazy how the NFC playoffs are just it we all year the beginning of the
year is like who the hells are gonna come out of the AFC? NFC feels like they have some really good
teams that all could get hot. And that's including like that's one through seven minus five.
Now I would say the the Eagles could get hot.
They could.
The Eagles, they were in the Super Bowl last year.
One through seven minus four and five,
I, I, I could see any of those teams
being in the NFC championship.
Those Eagles, if they can figure out a way
to transform back into those Eagles
that we saw earlier this year.
That's true.
Those Eagles could win the NFC.
And the box won a Super Bowl a couple of years ago.
Yeah, you could see the Packers
winning at Dallas and San Francisco?
Not San Francisco, but I could, I could definitely see them being ago. Yeah. You could see the Packers winning at Dallas and San Francisco? Not San Francisco, but I could definitely see them
beating Dallas.
Yeah.
The Niners are the Packers.
The Niners are to the Packers
with the Packers are to the Bears.
So like the Niners are like kind of,
they're like my protector.
They're the team that make sure
that I can go to sleep at night.
They're the meme.
Make the meme for me memes. I'm sleeping at night and the Niners are sitting there taking all the arrows from
the Packers. Got it. Okay. Raiders, Broncos, Antonio, Pierre should be the head coach. That's
all I got. I have a feeling that he's not because they've had every opportunity to say
that he is crazy. And then after the game today, Mark Davis was like, yeah, we're excited
about what he's done over the course
of the last month or so.
I have a feeling the Raiders are gonna screw this up
and they're gonna go out there and hire,
probably a re-tread coach,
probably someone who's been fired
maybe over under 1.5 times before,
and they're gonna screw it up and it's gonna be sad
and everyone's gonna say, well, we had her coach
and you let him get away again.
Yeah, which would be very stupid.
Yep, very, very, very, very, very stupid.
But yeah, Antonio Pierce should be the head coach.
Broncos have to... Broncos, I actually think like, because Sean Peyton is restless and
they've taken shots, they've fucked up, I wouldn't be shocked to Broncos because I don't
think they have to give their pick to the Seahawks anymore right I believe they
was protected but no no I think that they're done with that they don't do
protected picks I think it was a first last the year before and a first last
year tank of thought has them picking 12 right so I could see the Seahaw or the
Broncos just being like fuck it we got to get kill Williams straight up just trading a bunch of shit that might be your bitch. Yeah, they might be our bitch
All right Seahawks cardinals cardinals just they were scrappy to the bitter end
Kyle Murray like that's the one thing about the Cardinals Cardinals don't need a quarterback. Yeah, Kyle Murray's fun
James Conner is so much fun to watch he runs so
Upright, he's been Pacheco. He's fun. James Conner is so much fun to watch. He runs so upright. He's been
Pacheco. He's so tall. Yeah. Well, he also stands out compared to every other skill
position player that the Cardinals have. Yeah. But yeah, the the Seahawks, they're a team
that's going to have a shitload of questions because they feel like they have to figure
out the quarterback position. It feels like they also have to maybe like Pete Carroll.
I don't I wouldn't get rid of Pete Carroll, but he's 72 and now you're a couple years
like kind of going in the same spot. I don't know.
I don't know.
Can you see them? I don't like, hey Pete, do you want to retire?
I don't think they're gonna move on from Pete. I think I don't know what kind of gum Pete Carroll choose,
but it keeps him looking 20 years younger than he actually is.
I don't think they're gonna move on from Pete Carroll. I think they're gonna sit down and be like,
Pete Carroll, what is your plan when are you going to retire? So here's
a fun stat that's from Field Yates. Geno Smith this year through seven go ahead touchdown passes in
the fourth quarter and over time the most by any player in a single season in NFL history. Yeah,
he led the league and in game winning drives. Now, I don't want to be a stickler here, but that also
in order to set that record, your team also has to fall behind in the
Correct set it. Okay. Just wanted to make sure that we're looking at both sides of that correct. All right last wait. Hank's trending right now. Oh
Yeah, let's see what they're saying
Oh, dude Hank go Hank go to Dallas
Hank you should go
Everyone's saying, Hank, Hank, Hank, Hank.
Hank, Hank, Hank.
You should do it, Hank.
I think Hank should go this week.
Max just wants to go to Dallas.
I'm down to go though.
You should go this week.
But the podcast, maybe, I guess the people will vote
for you to go, because we got a bunch of dogs at ride.
Mm-hmm.
We do.
We do have some dogs.
We have some dogs, We have some dogs.
Our listeners are dogs that were like, yeah, our boy Hank, he's got to go to Dallas.
We could zoom him in.
Yeah, we could zoom you in.
Actually, you know what?
Go to Dallas.
Fuck it.
For real?
Yeah.
Go to Dallas.
We'll zoom you in.
As long as you can figure out how to zoom properly in on Sunday night.
He's got a mic.
Yeah.
You take a mic.
Actually, take a mic this time.
Hank, fun fact, we were always planning on me and PFC
just doing solo pods, but I did hit him up
and he was like, I didn't bring a mic.
Yeah.
If you can find a place to stay, you can go.
All right, fine.
Okay, done.
Hank's going to Dallas, but we also need someone
to go with you to videotape or you're gonna videotape
You to POV. Is this a work trip or a personal trip?
videotape what?
Oh come on everything just like I can I can
We'll talk offline. Okay. All right. All right. Also from field yades timeline the feels like temperature for Saturday night and Kansas City
Is gonna be negative 10.
Yeah boys, winter's coming.
Yeah, we got this, I saw this like a scary graphic
that was like this, basically Canada has just been holding
all the cold air and they're about to release it on us.
Polar vortex.
Yeah, they're about to just be like,
here's all the cold air.
Suckers.
That's fucked up.
Yeah, it was like, what the hell's this?
All the fucking cold air?
I thought they had all those fires. Yeah, they're just getting
Give us all the cold air next week the end of next week. God damn it Canada. Um, good thing we work in recess. Sorry. That's a one nice thing
It's like all right. I could take a cold air. I'll just play fucking hoops with the boys
Okay, last game chief chargers playing Gabbert. That's all I got
Yeah, I didn't really watch much of this game at all that no one wanted to win this game
Nope, so congratulations to the team that did. Which was the chiefs. It was the chiefs by a point.
I'm actually happy to chiefs one because it just will look better on the graphic. Oh, for their
overall record. Yeah. When when we're watching the matchups in the playoffs, you know, I think 10 wins,
they got 10 wins, they get to 11. 11. So yeah, it does look like they're, if they only had 10 wins, it would look wrong
that they had a home playoff game.
Correct. Yeah. So I was like, oh, cool. They got 11 wins. Good. Uh, okay. Let's do two things.
We got to who's back the week. But before we do that, I got the rowback question for you

My robot question is, PFT, who's going to win the national title?
Let's do a little quick preview.
I think Michigan is.
I think only because Jim Harbaugh is biohacking.
He's figured out how to hack sleep.
Oh, I don't know if you saw this quote today. No. Jim Harbaugh is biohacking. He's figured out how to hack sleep.
Oh.
And if you saw this quote today, but they were asking about getting a good night's sleep
before the game for him and his players.
He said, two nights before is the sleep that you play on.
I have no scientific evidence to present to you on that.
I just know when I play it and sometimes when I coached, sometimes the night before the
game, I didn't really sleep great.
So I've convinced myself that if I get a good night's sleep,
the night before the night before a game,
it's a great night of sleep.
That actually is true.
Is it?
I think so.
So maybe marathon runners do this,
because I've seen some people in the distance
running community be like, he's actually not wrong about this.
Yeah, and his brother did biohacking this year.
I'd the Ravens hired like a sleep analyst
for their London trip.
Okay. So I think the Harbaws are a sleep analyst for their London trip. Okay.
So I think the Harbaws are into this now.
I like it.
Which is kind of actually late for them because I feel like any competitive advantage they'll
take.
I think that biohacking is one thing.
I tweeted this out but I'd stand by it.
I would pay probably $10,000 for a two-day seminar by Jim Harbaw on biohacking.
Yeah.
The different ways that he's figured to make your body improve.
Yeah, milk and not eating chickens,
but then later on, yes eating chickens.
Because you bought chickens and they're industrious.
I, so I unfortunately do think that Michigan's gonna win,
which I will immediately spend and say the big 10s back.
But the one thing that I keep going back to is
Michigan has looked great all year. They have not played a good quarterback all year.
Like if you actually look at their schedule,
Michael Panics is so much better than every quarter
right they've played.
And I'm, you know,
Aller for Penn State, Calmwell Court,
you can actually make the argument
that probably the best quarter right they played
is two is younger brother at Maryland.
So like they just haven't like Jail Milrose, a good football player, but he's not
Michael Pentax in terms of passing the ball.
So that part is still like it's one of those cool wrinkles in college football
where you can go a whole season playing in your division or in your conference.
And now you're playing a quarterback, they have not seen a quarterback like Michael Pentax.
Yeah, also Michigan's defense,
their defensive backs are really good though.
No, they are, but so, but again,
they haven't played it,
but are they good because
right haven't played a good quarterback?
Right, I think that their defensive backs
are definitely better than Texas's defensive backs.
A great way better.
Way better.
And again, I think Michigan's defense very, very good.
I'm just saying that's a fun question mark going into this game that Michael Pentax is different than every other quarterback they
have faced because he's really, really good in playing really, really good football. The craziest
status, Michael Pentax has been sacked. He's played 14 games. He's been sacked 12 times. Yeah, it's wild.
Their offensive line is very, very good. And he does a good job of getting rid of the ball. I do think
Michigan's defense is their, their edge rushers are better than Texas. You saw that in that Texas game. It felt
like Texas was getting a lot of pressure at the middle, but they weren't getting home on the
edge. So I I don't know. It's a very it's a very awesome game because it's also like a style
who can who can get the game to play their style? Because if Michigan can just ground and pound
and control the clock, they'll win an ugly way and it will work.
And in Washington, it would just be behind all game,
like trying to make up ground and get the ball back.
But if Washington can somehow get them into the like TCU game last year,
a shootout, then Washington's like as live as live could be.
Okay, so what has to happen in order for people to say
to Michigan you guys are a good team without the cheating?
I mean, it hasn't happened yet.
Yeah, if they win this national title, you can't,
you can't take anything away.
You can't take it away.
No, because they stopped cheating
in what before the Penn State game.
Yeah, before the Purdue game, I believe.
That's when they stopped being allowed to cheat.
Correct.
And it would also just be great theater
to have Harball win a national championship. Yeah, and just to just unload on cheat. Correct. And it would also just be great theater to have Harbaugh win a national championship.
Yeah.
And just to just unload on everybody.
Correct.
I will have him back on the show.
I loved him Harbaugh.
I wish he was the coach of the Bears.
And if he wins, he's probably going to go to the NFL.
Yeah.
And I think he's probably going to go to the Chargers.
And most likely.
And I wish it was the Bears instead.
Maybe the commanders.
Maybe the commanders.
So what's your official pick? I'm taking the over by the way. And I wish it was the bears instead maybe the commanders maybe the commanders
So what's your official pick? I'm taking the over by the way and I would lean I don't have an official pick I'm I'm leaning towards betting Washington in the points. Yeah, but I think Michigan's gonna win. Yeah
What do you guys got anything?
I have a future on Washington, so not not for a lot, but I'm gonna ride with them. Why don't you do that?
A couple weeks ago, to go.
Oh.
Oh.
Before the Pac-Wall championship game.
Got it.
I also want Spencer to be happy.
Yeah.
He's going to the Ganser.
This is actually a great year if you're a Washington fan.
It's just incredible.
You probably never thought that playing for a national championship
at this time in this era would be possible.
Yeah. And now everything turned around for you
and it's just been magical.
I like, I know a lot of Washington fans
and I like their mascot.
I like Dubs.
He's a very good dog.
They had him dressed in the sunglasses after the game.
I like, my heart is putting me on Washington
but my, my testicles are saying Michigan.
Yeah.
I, I wonder too if Dylan Johnson's going to play because he said he's going to play.
The running back, we got hurt in the last play against Texas.
He's very good at blocking.
So that will be a very big loss for them if he doesn't play.
He said he's going to play though, but he said the injury wasn't as bad.
He also like couldn't walk off the field.
Yeah.
So maybe he's just gutting it out
Play Corms gonna score maybe twice
That's another thing. I think it's like his his his like minus two-fifth. It's crazy
But he's if you want to parlay it with something he's going to score it's like McCaffrey levels. He's going to score a touchdown
Okay, do you guys have any picks do you have a pick 31 27 Michigan? Oh that'd be Washington covering the spread also because of the Ravens earning a buy week John
Harboh is going to the game. Yeah, yeah, I love that other Ravens members. Yeah love that Max. I love Washington
So that's people from Washington. Congratulations. Hail to them. I have I have yeah, can we put that on the next
Soundboard? Yeah, I have a large wager on Washington. Oh man.
And one last step.
Funny.
Oh man.
Okay, well, we'll stream it.
So we're gonna tune into the stream.
All right, let's finish up the show.
The lines have moved again.
Kansas City minus three and a half.
Yeah, that's first firing up.
The bills are up to nine and a half point favorite.
So we were right.
We were right.
So we were right.
We were so right.
We know ball.
We absolutely know ball. I think that yeah
I think that that I think the buyback will probably be like four and a half
Four for the dolphins. So I was a little off on that
But the the bills are gonna be nine and a half ten point favorites. By kickoff. Yep. Uh
Okay, who's back the weekend? Um, who's back the weekend's Max Homa. Oh, yeah
Sorry, I just I had it pulled up and I saw I was searching Who's back the week Hank? Who's back the week is Max Homa. Oh, yeah.
Sorry, I just, I had it pulled up and I saw I was searching.
I can say it right now, Hank.
The trending, you got my, who's back too?
Okay, we do this a lot.
We do.
So he hit a drive, 477 yards.
Longest drive on the PGA tour in the shot link era.
Pretty crazy.
So that's like ever.
That's probably the longest drive of all time.
That's crazy.
Was it downhill in the wind?
It was.
Okay.
But still, they've like,
that's not on that course before.
I never saw it.
I never saw it.
And was he being sarcastic with his tweet then?
Yeah, he was very sarcastic.
I don't think so.
I just saw the tweet so I couldn't tell.
He was max being sarcastic.
Yeah, max usually sarcastic.
He said, then that's also a very humble guy. If you look up the
longest like in years and years and years and years from now, there'll be
little kids that look up, you know, they'll pull up the book. The longest
drives in the shot link era. And they'll open it up. And on the first page,
it will say Max Homa number one, 77. It's not going to say downhill. It's not
going to say. I'm a bunch of majors. of majors just gonna say Max home a top of the list longest drive that guy must be a fucking tank
Yeah, right up champion. I'm gonna say right now Max Max is gonna win a major this year. I think so I think
I'm looking at his timeline right he said it was uphill into the wind with no role. Yeah, that's the
Jake lost the double sarcasm. Yeah.
All right. So Max is the best driver in the world. Yeah, longest driver. Longest driver.
He's on the powerful. He's the most powerful man on the PGA tour. Tiger Woods could never drive
that far. Wow. Getting into an accident. In fact, okay. Good. Who's back?
Boys. Yeah. That was also my who's back. So I'll just say my other who's back
is plane tracking season.
I got my boys working overtime
on the coaching search plane tracks.
Very excited to see where all the private jets are going,
figure out the interviews.
It's just a great time.
It's a great time to be me.
Yeah.
I'm pumped up for a fresh start.
Turn the page.
I want a new coach.
Yeah, it's gonna be great.
I'm gonna do a new coach, probably a new quarterback, have a new owner, new name. We're going to get
a new stadium. I want all those. The old me is that there's also a possibility we just
hired Joe Gibbs again. That would rule. Bring it back for the third time. Steve Spurrier.
Yeah. No, no, no. The best thing about Steve Spurrier was when he got hired to be the
head coach, he was meeting with draft picks, right? And he was like, how do you all feel about practicing on Fridays?
Like, well, you know, if our coach tells us to practice,
we'll practice.
He goes, okay, because we're not going to practice on Fridays here.
Friday's I'm going to go play golf.
So the comment or the redskins just didn't practice on Fridays.
I was like, it's South Carolina when he had the,
he had a pitching range right next to the practice field
so he could pitch while he's watching the team practice.
Yeah, pretty great.
I think he asked every draft pick, do you play golf? Okay, good. you had a pitching range right next to the practice field. So you could pitch while he's watching the team practice.
Yeah, pretty great.
I think he asked every draft pick, do you play golf?
Okay, good, because we're gonna play on Fridays.
Yeah, yeah.
All right, my who's back is the Bass Pro Shop.
Went very viral this weekend.
A gentleman jumped into the Bass Pro Shop tank.
And let's just say for all the women out there,
I know you're wondering, yes,
that he actually was probably above average.
He, that was a man.
That was a man.
His penis was camouflage in Bass Pro Shop.
It was car hard everywhere.
Real true.
A button, a button dick.
It was in any, non-dit-aclit dick.
Yeah, dick.
That was tough.
I felt bad for our boy there.
I don't know how you can be in the bass pro shop
and not be a rouse.
Yeah.
The picture too of him getting handcuffed
and taken away was even worse somehow
because like the video of him in the water
with the button dick, you're like,
oh, well, that's an illusion.
We might not be able to see everything
and then his penis came back out not far but it came back out and they're like, oh, well, that's an illusion. We might not be able to see everything. And then his penis came back out
Not far but it came back out and they're like, oh, no, that is
What's going on if you're that guy you have to have well, I guess what I respect about him is the fact that he was so comfortable in his own body
Yeah, he wasn't even trying to fluff up. He wasn't trying to like chub it. He wasn't trying to move it around
Maybe pop the head out a little bit. It's probably a adrenaline. It's probably a adrenaline.
He, that also might be him like fully engorge too.
Right.
He, maybe he was having a good dick guys.
Right.
And he was like, you know what?
I've never seen my penis before.
The fact that I can see the head of it,
I need to take all my clothes off and get on camera.
It might have also been, uh, you know, kind of a fight or flight situation.
If you jump into water naked, you're like, I don't want any fish to bite my dick.
So I'm going to make sure my dick disappears.
Yeah, it could be mistaken for bait.
Yeah.
So it's gone.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I love that guy though.
Yeah, that guy ruled.
That guy ruled the whole thing.
It's also what it was like, it was like a button on a pico.
If a guy's handcuffed and panceless. It's just a bad, bad look.
It sucks.
It's got a sucks so bad.
You can't give him a towel.
Yeah, they got shirts right there.
They got shorts.
They got pants.
Yeah, it's hook him up.
Tough look.
All right, Jake finishes off.
My who's back of the week is Dremond Green.
Oh, he has been reinstated.
Great.
After a 12 game suspension that was initially indefinite.
And he'll be back in game action soon enough.
I predicted Dremond has learned his lesson.
Yeah, he won't do this again.
I think that Dremond had a brief mental air,
a brief moment where he blacked out a little bit,
a heated gaming moment.
And he will not be making that mistake again.
Dremond's a new man.
So he was undergoing counseling for several weeks
and almost wasn't progressing progress meetings and the parties are expected to continue will not be making that mistake again. Dremont's a new man. Yeah, he was undergoing counseling for several weeks and all of that work.
Sure, that worked.
Sure, that worked.
Sure, that worked.
Sure, that worked.
Sure, that worked.
Sure, that worked.
Sure, that worked.
Sure, that worked.
Sure, that worked.
Sure, that worked.
Sure, that worked.
Sure, that worked.
Sure, that worked.
Sure, that worked.
Sure, that worked.
Sure, that worked.
Sure, that worked.
Sure, that worked.
Sure, that worked.
Sure, that worked. Sure, that worked. Sure, that worked. Sure, that worked. Sure, that worked. Sure, that worked. Sure, that worked. Sure, that worked. Sure, that worked. Sure, that worked. Sure, that worked. Sure, that worked. Sure, that worked. Sure, that worked. Sure, that worked. Sure, that worked. Sure, that worked. Sure, that worked. Sure, that worked. Sure, that worked. Sure, that worked. Sure, that worked. Sure, that worked. Sure, that worked. Sure, that worked. Sure, that worked. Sure, that worked. Sure, that worked. Sure, that worked. Sure, that worked. Sure, that worked. Sure, that worked. Sure, that worked. Sure, that worked. Sure, that worked. Sure, that worked. important, but I think he was the final test of like
The last guy who could be like, well, it's mental health. I'm working on it's like wow. No, you're just an asshole. Yeah, sometimes
Sure, like people will be like, oh, well, we hope he's okay. No, I he just he just dick that being said
His reaction and how he's just like throwing punches anytime he's minorly inconvenienced
in a professional basketball game, there probably is something that he needs to work on.
Yeah, of course.
There's definitely like a rage issue when you read out like that and you just decide to
start swinging wildly at people.
But he was the one guy who like when people like, well, you know, he's going through some
of his like, well, he also just could just stop punching people.
Yeah, it's him and John Marant.
Yeah.
How do we get past our issues? Well, stop showing guns on a live stream
and then stop punching people.
He, someone wrote a deep dive,
I gotta fucking find it
cause it'll be very funny to read on here,
but they were like,
Jermon Green has a type
and he only punches like Euros.
Yeah.
He's only punching Euros,
which, so all the Euros,
Jordan Poole.
Yeah, Jordan Poole and practice.
Oh yeah, Jordan Poole. Oh, yeah, Jordan pool.
Yeah, yeah, but that was practice.
Practice and also Jordan pool kind of egg tomorrow.
He was literally practicing to punch a euro.
She's Jordan pools plus minus.
What is it?
It's the lowest in the league.
It's the last minus two 50.
He's the best for him.
He's never seen a shot.
He couldn't hit.
Yeah, they asked, they asked Steve Kerr about it
when they, when the Wizards play the Warriors.
He's like, he's a success story. Look how much money he's made.
Yeah. Jordan Pool is such a detriment to have on your team that Steve Kerr was like,
yeah, Dreymon kind of, he's in the right way to punch it.
Yeah. I empathize with that.
Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Good show, boys. We got to play a football talk about all week.
We'll have some good guests to break it down.
We'll obviously talk about the national championship on Wednesday.
Let's finish off with some numbers.
40. 18.
71.

Shirt pick. Oh fifth pick. Alright I'm going 71.
And the cat you still have an open invite to join the winter circle.
Oh, cry baby Max. Oh by the way congrats to Max for not losing the opening act for Vegas memes.
We'll be doing the opening act which I'm a winner.
So wait, Max, you finished from what place?
Couldn't, couldn't have picked to a worse comedy.
I really don't know what to expect from memes.
Or memes he's saying I don't have to stand up.
Definitely fans of myself, but.
So memes is going to do, I don't know, you might have like a power point presentation.
Of memes?
Of memes, various memes.
Yeah.
Memes through, you know what you should do.
You should teach a history lesson
using just memes throughout history.
I actually said that Max
outside record point.
History of it. I like that.
Also Max cheated because he took the
over in the Raven Steelers
and then complained about it to a point where
he did have the over, right?
The graphics had yet the over.
Also that extra holiday pick that Hank wanted kind of fucked me.
Oh, yeah, it would have been Max.
It was the holidays.
Oh, damn.
Damn.
Damn.
I saw Max taking the holidays.
Max, there was an incorrect graphic and we just like on the text chain just basically
just got under Max's skin for like an hour and a Saturday and I walked in this morning
and I was like, do you, is there ever a point of you where you're like,
I know what they're doing, I can just not pay attention.
He's like, yeah.
Yeah.
I can't help myself.
Yeah.
You guys are very good at getting under my skin
and I know that you're doing it,
but I still have to fight back.
What is that picture, Jake?
Right here.
Yeah.
It's all of my score, Gommi's in a club.. Oh my I also print out individuals behind me. Oh my God. I did a CVS run got the lottery ball winners by the

collage on the desk. So you got so perfectly sure you've
done happy for you. I think everywhere. It has to be the 70 to
20 for dolphins. Yeah. So you made that that yourself. Oh,
yeah, I made the collage. Did you gift it to yourself? Did
you wrap it? No, I just hung it up for a WL. You should have
wrapped it and then unwrapped it.
And like, look at this, someone got me.
Oh my score got me.
All right, everyone's got their numbers in?
Yeah, again real quick, 7-1-2-1.
