We start in London town where the Jaguars tried to build Hadrian's wall to contain Rome But it wasn't enough after Cole Comet Galla scored twice and stop me if you've heard this before

But Jason De Rulo has just fallen down the stairs again. Keenan Allen-Wrench took a right angle for two touchdown scores, further bolting the screws on Doug Peterson's coaching casket. Duggies in a box, in a box, in a box. Bears 35, Jaguars 16. Down to Balmer, Maryland. With a battle of the beltway, Don't Say Gay Flowers embraced man-to-man coverage as a wide receiver went for 137 yards. Marky Mark Andrews committed some hate crimes against the Washington defense as we were lucky the game wasn't a tie late.

Truth or Derek Henry went streaking as the Ravens rolled to another victory. The Ravens 30. The Command commanders 23. WAP! WAP! WAP! Up to Green Bay where they were saying Romeo Romeo where art thou Romeo? Dobbs reunited with his forbidden love. Jordan that is, leaning up for two scores. Arizona couldn't hold a candle to Melton Wicks and the Packers ran up the score leaving the

Cardinals fishing for an answer as their fans are saying Michael Wilson King of touchdowns we hate this hate on you Packers 34 Cardinals 13 down to the big easy word Spencer Gifts Rattler threw very tacky balls to Arian Foster Moreau who in true communist fashion Failed to capitalize on bucks God. God wins again, atheist. Sean Penis Tucker showed everyone he was the manjina, scoring twice, and despite all my rage, I am still just a rat in the cage. As Otten had Saints fans smashing pumpkins early in the fourth quarter,

as the Bucks put up a 50-burger. The Bucks 51. The Saints 27. We head on over to Foxborough for Drake Mays. First game, Hank. You looked at me like you weren't ready, but Hank's ready. You mean we go over to Gillette? We're at long last. It was time.

For the main event! CJ Sean Stroud took the Texans down down down down down down the field and threw a touchdown tank to Del to get the scoring started. Joe Mix in the water added a rushing TD of his own before October's very own Drake May found K Sean booty booty booty booty rocking everywhere for a 40 yard score speaking of booty everywhere Stefan coach digs scored on a glitch play as the Texans roll over the Patriots 41 21 I thought I had some more but I thought I don't know where they went boom that's okay boom talking about homework boom that's all right boom good job boom to sin city where Steelers

Vegas was the plot of oceans 11 hoping for an easy w but ending up like easy e AIDS in a O'Connell left with some bad blood towards Pittsburgh when asked postgame about his touchdown run Najee Kamala Harris said I grew up in a middle-class family and used to work at McDonald's Pittsburgh 32, the Raiders 13. Over in Denver where B.O. Nicks doesn't deserve the axe even though he was body spraying the ball over the field, J.K. Rowling-Dobbins was a turf monster scoring a touchdown and racking up 96 yards on the

day. The white Bronco himself Riley Moss couldn't go fast enough down the LA freeway as they took a few stabs and a big play but ended up on the losing end. OJ Simpson's dead folks. RIP OJ Simpson a much better player than a human being. Chargers 23 the Broncos 16. In Dallas there were a lot of anger kicks made and it looked like a Kareem Hunt video as Tim Patrick starred and unless you've been living under a rock the lions are good. Lion cowboys like Enos and Jack telling their wives there was nothing happening up on that mountain and much like that film the cowboys sucked on D letting the Lions put up 47

Dax Delente showed his asshole and his butt crack again big fucking deal we never seen an asshole before Lions start 47 Cowboys 9 and happy birthday to Jerry Jones the biggest asshole in the world Standing on a corner, Jameis Winston, Kiah Hoga, such a fine sight to see. Another record loss, the Eagles taking off, can the Browns just send the season please? Sirianni hates Max, shaved his head that dumb ass. He uses kids as human shields. Is he in hummus? Eagles 20, Browns 16. And that is the fastest two minutes from week six in the NFL.

Okay, week six in the books, we'll recap Sunday Night Football, Snooze Fest Sunday Night Football at the end of everything because it's still going on. But boys, scoring might be back in the NFL. Finally. Outside of Sunday Night Football. Finally.

We had nine games in week six where a team went over 30 points. Yeah, we had some great, great games if you bet the overs today that the Bucks Saints game feel like that in basically the first quarter That was insane. Yeah. Yeah, but we also had it felt like a bunch of the favorites won Not a lot of surprises some statement games that we had maybe the worst birthday Yeah, put your Jones put that in the in the tickler for for the Tiki Awards Worst birthday worst birthday. Yeah. Yeah, so let's get into the games though We have we started with the London game Bears 35 Jaguars 16. I Very much enjoyed this game. I bet you did. This was a very fun game. This is why

People wanting me to freak out after two weeks This was a very fun game. This is why people wanting me to freak out after two weeks This game felt good because Caleb Williams was awesome. He threw four touchdown passes He ran for 56 yards. He was actually the fourth QB ever To have four plus rookie fourth rookie QB ever to have four plus TDs and 50 rushing yards in a game. He also is the first QB pick number one overall in the common draft era to start four and two. Yes.

So four out of six, which- Pretty good start. ... is a little vindication of when I said that he was going into the best situation a number one pick has ever gone into. Yes, the offensive line, which was bad to start the season, has looked a lot better. This is kind of what I'm talking about because the Bears defense continues to put even with all their injuries elite performances together every single week and essentially gives the offense like they the it's been 12 games that teams gone

over 21 points on the Bears and Cale Williams the Keenan Allen connection just everything you all looked awesome you also had the the Travis Hunter of the NFL today Cole Comet yeah Cole Comet he had two touchdowns right two touchdowns and then there was an injury to your long snapper yep so Cole Comet couldn't even celebrate his touchdowns because he had to run to the line of scrimmage and be the emergency long snap yes and I don't think he fucked up a single snap either no he didn't he was he was awesome Keenan Allen was awesome that's been like a focus because he obviously started injured the season now He's he's back and he's kind of the safety valve

Cale Williams touchdown throw where he hit him back shoulder, which was so perfect It just everything like even Cale Williams one interception, which is a bad throw He you saw it. It was like DJ Moore was wide open if he throws that correctly. It's a touchdown You saw it. It was like DJ Moore was wide open if he throws that correctly. It's a touchdown From that point on he scored he went for touchdown drives in a row Yeah, so it's like that's the type of stuff that you see from Caleb Williams. And again, it's just like every week He's gotten better People will say well, they're playing bad teams They're also destroying bad teams and this is why I didn't freak out after two weeks

And this is why everyone who wanted me to call him a bust and everyone was like, he's a bust. Now we see the Bears are foreign too. And I feel happy. I'm excited. Pretty good record. Foreign two is a good record. And they listen, they've gotten better every week and Shane Waldron has gotten better. The offensive line has gotten better.

Deandre Swiss gotten better. Get by week coming up, get some guys healthy on the defense. Like we lost three defensive starters this week. Uh, so get them healthy. Everything feels good. We're not very smart on this show. And I think the only thing that we're smart about is how often we say that we're not smart. We nail that take all the time, but we do know what sleep is and we know how to optimize sleep. And so when there's a big sleep gap in between the teams that

go over to London, obviously with the Jags, they got thrown off by the hurricane. I don't know what their plan was going into the week, if they planned on going over earlier, if they were always going to go on Thursday evening or whatever they were. Okay. So I feel comfortable saying that's a shitty sleep plan. Yeah. You have to have a better sleep plan to that. The Bears got there on, or they left on Monday.

They got there on Tuesday, Tuesday. Now they get, now they get to catch up on their sleep, come back on a bi-week. Yeah. And we got, we got an hour back this weekend when we just change clocks the Jaguars do do that every time and they are used to obviously going to London so and if you watch watching this game you would think that the Jaguars were the ones that had more sleep because in the first quarter the Bears were sleepwalking the Jaguars had a nice 10 play drive to go down the field and, uh, I think it was a field goal to start, but then it just flipped and the bears woke

up and it was, it was just, it was such an enjoyable watch. I had so much fun. I'm not going to make any crazy statements about Caleb Williams going forward. I'm just going to say I've enjoyed trusting the process of Caleb Williams and watching him get better every single week He still has ways to go But it's fun to see him do things that no other Bears quarterback has ever done and he actually just tied Through six games tied the record for most touchdowns for a rookie Bears QB with Jim McMahon nine. That's pretty good Pretty good. Yeah, he low bar. He pretty good. He looks he looks the part today was a big day. I'm glad that you got to enjoy just like watching

him and just being like, fuck yeah, this is cool. Yeah, he's everything that I thought he would be. And yeah, so now the Bears get to come back, get more sleep, get caught up on sleep again, hi, we a bit more. Yep. It's I'd like to apologize to the country of England that we send the Jaguars over to them all the time. Yeah, for two weeks in a row. But you know what? Those fuckers, we have to watch Piers Morgan on our TV all the time. You have to watch the Jaguars. I'm going to call that a wash.

That's a fact. I'm going to say that's even. So now the Jaguars are staying over there. They're playing a double header next week and it's the Patriots, right? So yeah. I have a sad, this is really a sad Jaguars stat from our good friend Uncle Chaps, but it's related to the Jaguars. So this is actually first point out by Mark Long. It was a rough weekend for teams once coached by Urban Meyer. Jaguars 35-16 lost to the Bears in London. Ohio State

loses 32-31 at Oregon. Florida falls 23 to 17 in overtime at Tennessee. Utah loses 27-19 at Arizona State. And green fall 17 to 7 to Northern Illinois. Damn. The stink is still on the programs from Urban Meyer. Damn. All over his fingers. That's bad. Stinky little thing. He lost them all. Yeah. Yeah, the Jaguars are, Andre Sisco said afterwards, there was a lot of quit, which is that that's not good. And it feels like Doug Peterson is on borrowed time. We've talked about all the quotes he's had. Shad Khan on Saturday did a vote of confidence, which is never a good sign. He said, I still believe in them. I believe in the coaches,

coaching staff. I believe in the players. That means he does not believe in them. But he's stuck in England for a week with them. And you probably can't fire Doug Peterson in England, which would be hilarious if they did did which yeah, the Jaguars just they're bad They were dropping balls like they their defense their secondary is bad Just a really sad team and it brought me to a thought are we gonna look back and max? This is no offense to you because Flags fly forever banners fly forever. You don't apologize for it. But are we going to look back and say Doug Peterson, Nick Foles was the craziest Superbowl winning combo of all time?

I mean, it already kind of is. It already kind of is. Especially when you consider who they beat in that Superbowl, Bill Belichick and Tom Brady. Right. Like it is the craziest thing. Like Doug Peterson is going to get fired probably mid season here. Yeah. Is he a Malcolm Butler merchant? It's just nuts. Like we're going gonna look back and be like, wait, that happened? Oh, yeah, that did. Yeah. But yeah, it's it's sad for Doug

Peterson right now. I don't know what else to say. Like, well, he's all he's all over. He knows exactly what the issue is. He says we've got to change the culture. Otherwise, it gets just gets out of control. We're on a slippery slope, or right on the cusp of that slope. I'm sure we've got at some point, we've got to say enough is enough and you've got to have enough pride and figure out a way. They asked him if next week was a must win. He said, I would say so. I would say everything here on out quite frankly is a must. I would say so for Doug. I would say that he's already lost a couple of the must win. Yeah, I would say so. Um,

it's sad for the Jaguars because it just happened so fast where Trevor Lawrence is again I there were a bunch of drops like his receivers didn't help him but the regression it feels like that he's gone through has been severe and you just locked him up to a long-term deal and Now you have all these questions and man, it's it's it's sad to be a Jaguars fan Um, I feel like that changing changing your flight home at point, getting an earlier flight home if you're fired, that's a pretty hefty bill, right? Yeah. If you have like, I'm assuming it's business class,

first class coming back, to change that up from like two weeks from now to like a week from now. I guess it would be a week from now to like tomorrow if you wanted to fire him. You're looking at like a $30,000 ticket, I would imagine. Listen, it would be the most Jaguars thing and the funniest thing ever if they did fire

him while they're still in England. Yeah. Like that would be the most Jaguars thing for like maybe even wait till like Thursday or Friday. Yeah. Really add to the chaos. Yeah. Or they just they say, Doug, why don't you come on home?

Come home. You're not going to coach the second game in England. Yeah. Like we want we want to put on a good showing for British fans over there. Come back, take the week to regroup and then you're're gonna be the coach when they get back in the u.s He shot con should be like Doug I want to meet with you in our facility in Jacksonville and then Doug flies home and then shot con just on a zoom Yeah, and he's like you're fired

Yeah Which that would actually be okay because you wouldn't want to Fly all the way home and then have to have a meeting and fly all the way back They should if they if they lose next week They should just give them a boat, like make them go out to Wales and catch a boat there and be like, here's your boat. If you can figure out how to get this back to Jacksonville on your own, there's no, no staff, no crew on it. Just you and your other coaches. If you can,

if you could land in Jacksonville within like five weeks, then you got your job. We, you can keep your job. Um, Hank Hank do you have anything you want to say to me? About what no, oh Okay Well, I have a clip from last year that our darling Jake had a reminder in his calendar that he texted me over the weekend I shout to Jake got a score. Gummy today. She Jake got a score. Gummy. Congrats This is when you were peak laughing at me last year at the end of the Bears season Go ahead play it I'll

say it it's my Super Bowl I don't care right before the Packers should be and guess what if the Bears win Packers fans will be crying crying crying and it will be great mm-hmm and I'll fucking love every second of it you don't even know that we're playing to bounce the Packers yeah I do why did it last year oh oh that's very interesting I know all right All right. Well, you know what, Jake? Put a reminder on this exact conversation Yep, week six next year when the Bears are four and two or five and one. This is gonna age nice Okay. Oh, I can't wait for this. I can't wait for this. The Bears are gonna be good next year. Mm-hmm They are that's on the big cat soundboard. The Bears are going to be good in

2024. I'm saying it right now, this team is playing fucking good football. Justin Fields looks good. These guys are playing for each other. The defense is legit. We have all the draft capital. We have all the fucking cap space. I don't care that this might be a terrible soundbite for me next year, but I'm saying

it right now and I believe it. Would you like to apologize to me? You laughed at me a lot. I don't think I laughed that hard. I did not say anything in that clip that I would like to apologize for. You laughed a lot at me at this point and I just called my shy's at week six. We're gonna be four and two or five and one. I wish we were five and one, but we're four and two.

I think the funniest part of that video clip was the giant like family-sized thing of Tums that we have Just on the slate So you jump through January you don't want to say anything you don't say anything I didn't say anything in that clip no But that you know what happened before that clip you you mocked me and said this team stinks and they'll always stink Yeah, you did. I did and I said they're building something the end of last year and they're gonna they're gonna keep going forward. I'm happy for you, Big Cat. I'm happy for the city of Chicago. Listen, I'm not. I'm only taking a victory lap for you specifically because the Bears have a lot of season left, a lot of tough games left. It's a very unfinished

product. I do not think they're some incredible team right now. I do not think Cale Williams is some elite quarterback. They're working towards it but a you specifically just you I want you to say sorry I will not say sorry okay all right that's fine that's fine that's fine I respect Hank not apologize yeah that's fine there's nothing to apologize well you know what happened in the previous part of that clip also I just had on the record saying no one wants the Bears to win more than shit Jake had he sent me the calendar reminder and it literally said remind Hank when the Bears are four and two or five and one after week six. So that

was that happening. You called your shot. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Well congrats. Thank you. Congratulations on turn order. No listen the Bears haven't played. They played bad teams. I get that. They've also killed bad team. All wins are against ups that are here we go Is that true? I like this. I like this go. I'm know you have the stat go ahead What no you tell me I I can't remember listen either goalpost keep moving. I'm not True, I don't I'm I was asking you. Yeah, what's the set? I don't know if all the teams the Bears have beat are one in five No, I don't know if they're one if I think one of them is one in four cuz they had a bye week

So wrong wrong snack that was wrong. That's a very funny stat listen I you see you can't apologize who you play. Oh, you absolutely not Defenses everyone says they're incredible and when the Bears do it's the goalpost move I'm just I mean, I'm not saying the Bears are an incredible team. The Titans. They're beating the teams they should beat and they're actually beating the fuck out of them. Beat the Rams. How many wins do the Rams have? One. The Rams have only one win. Yeah. The Panthers and the Jaguars. Yeah, it's true. Listen, when you, when, when Jaden Daniels plays well against bad defenses. Yeah. I'm saying, I'm saying you play who you play, right? You when when Drake may plays the Jaguars next week and he looks awesome. You should be happy. I will be yeah exactly

You got it. What am I supposed to do? They got to play they're killing them. Yeah, they've killed the Jaguars. They killed the Panthers Cole Komet beast like Cole Komet is a piece of beast. She's a beast But yeah, like still they got a fucking really tough schedule These were the games they had to win every game this week or last week in this week I said we're must wins because if you don't must win them and you lose them Then you're gonna be stuck in a situation later on in the season where you're like, how do we lose the Jaguars? How do we lose the Panthers? They're not stuck in that situation. Yeah, and so next up commanders Yeah, we'll be great. Why we tattoo bet Yeah, I'll do a tattoo tattoo bet. Let's do it. I'll get

a tattoo. I don't know what I'm gonna get. Warthog. No, you get planes. I'm not gonna get a plane of my choosing. I'm gonna get a warthog. I don't know what I'd get. I'd probably get something. I don't know maybe just like a insult Tattoo of Hank or something maybe Hank with without a beard. Mm-hmm On the palm of my hand. I'll just do every podcast just like this bald No, how sick would that be? I could look like yeah like powder and Voldemort. Yeah, I just had it right here And I was like hey Hank Question you want to apologize?

Looking at yourself. You don't see too many palm tattoos Okay. Well, all right. I I feel like I'm being reasonable but uh No, it's for two. I feel like I should at least be I can be happy you should try to steal my joy should be thrilled There the goalposts do keep moving but that's fine. That's just the not from you guys I'm not I'm not saying yeah, I honestly didn't know this that about them beating one or one win team You know, we played bad teams, but we've just killed them. It's just interesting that it's all the one went to the defense also has 13 takeaways this year. They just that they're taking the ball away, which is important You got you got a you got to respect the ball

You know what the Jaguars have played a lot of games this year and you guys are the ones that made them quit. Yeah, they they have Matt Eberfluss that one of the the fumble that we had to start the second half I believe it was right after I can't remember who's doing sidelines said talk to Matt Eberfluss. He said at halftime we have to honor the football. I like that. I like it. Yeah, I still don't love Matt E Rufus But guess what his defense plays hard and Shane Baldwin has done better cherish it love the foot honor the foot. Yeah Okay, next up Ravens 30 commanders 23 You want to start I mean Ravens are really good I just said the Ravens are really good Their defense played a lot better today than it has in the past team peas

Yeah, Dean peas is back team. Dean Pease makes a difference. Dean Pease makes a big difference. And yeah, the commander's defense is just bad. We're just, we're very bad on D and there was really no way that we could have won that game considering how our defense played. Hank was, Hank just kept on saying this defense is the worst I've ever seen. Yeah, they're bad. They're very bad.

Very bad. St. Jude's had a really tough game today. They just forgot to use middle linebackers. Yeah, the middle. Zay Flowers was just going everywhere. Middle of field is wide open. Zay Flowers is doing the thing where he somehow catches a dig with like, I don't know, 10, 15 yards of open turf around him. And he does that little spin move right after he catches it, gets another seven yards. That was all day. And they could have run, they could have beaten us any way they wanted today. They could have gone to Zay Flowers.

They could have gone to Bateman, right? He's their other receiver. They could have beaten us any way they wanted today. They could have gone to a, to Zay Flowers. They could have gone to Bateman, right? He's their receiver. They could have had Derek Henry run for 300 yards against us and probably would have worked out for the Ravens. So, um, the commanders, we got a lot of holes, especially on the, like, you know, the personnel side of the defense. But I will announce that the Superbowl window for the commanders is officially open. This is the start of the Superbowl window. We're not a Superbowl winning team this year

I'm not thinking soupy this year, but I know when I see it we have a Superbowl window We got a fuckload of cap space. We have a great quarterback an awesome quarterback Maybe the best quarterback I've ever seen play for my team We've got some weapons for him We need a couple additions here and there on offense and I think we need to spend like all of our draft picks on the defense Yeah, and we need to get better free agency trade deadline Draft whatever it is. Just focus on the defense because I think I think the Super Bowl window is here

What about now? It's open this year. Yeah. Yeah. I'm Like I don't think the NFC is as good as the AFC is. I think that we should be able to get, well, the AFC North is really, really good. Actually, the NFC North, if you wanna talk some like crazy stats right now. Yeah, I have them as well, but go ahead. Okay, yeah, we can get to those when we talk about it. Let's do it when we talk about the Packers, because the Packers lead into the crazy stats.

That sounds good. So there's no torch passing today. No torch passing, but if you're looking at a measuring stick game, which by the way, I love the fact that they said that to Dan Quinn, he was like, no, we're not doing measuring measuring stick game, which by the way, I love the fact that they, they said that to Dan Quinn. He was like, no, we're not, we're not doing measuring sticks. We're measuring sticks.

I liked that. Cause that implies that they're not as good as the other team. It actually was a measuring stick game. It was. And you guys measured. Okay. We were okay. Uh, the Ravens offense is the best offense in football.

Yeah. Maybe the lions, they're the best Ravens are the best offense in the AFC for sure. Lions are looking like they're absolutely insane right now while the Bengals just scored a touchdown and possibly a cover. That was big. Chase Brown. But the Ravens are just, they are the first team since 1971 Raiders, John Madden's Raiders, to have 150 plus rushing yards and a rush TD in all six of their first games. Mark Andrews, which we said on Friday was going to get unlocked for the first time this year, scored a touchdown, uh, likely as a B save flowers everywhere. Imagine if

they had Devante Adams, which is, they're still a team that's, that's in the talks to it. Could be the Raiders. Like Schefterfter said like he might just he might just stay because he likes a no Connell which is weird. Yeah. Yeah. But yeah they're an absolute monster of an offense and I feel like that's that's a game like you guys were your defense just needs to get better. But also now the Ravens are gonna do that to every even they did it to the Bills defense. They did that to the Bengals defense. They they're gonna do it to every defense. We never had a chance in that. Like we get that the interception off the Mark Andrews drop on the first first drive and there was that fucked up snap that we didn't recover on defense. And if you're going to win that game you have to you have to get very very lucky multiple

times. Yeah. And so yeah Ravens just a very very good team. Ravens are awesome. I think the Ravens I I'm looking forward to the inevitable Chiefs-Ravins playoff matchup. Yes. I'm looking very much forward to that. Maybe the Ravens will realize they should run the ball. Maybe they... Although the Chiefs have a really good defense. I think having just a giant on your sideline and Derrick Henry, it's kind of hard to forget

about Derrick Henry when he's that much bigger than everyone. Yeah. You know, like if you have a small guy, if you've got a little guy that's like 5'10", 5'11", you can get lost and be like, yeah, you know, let's just keep passing. But Derek Henry is physically so big that I don't think that Harbaugh would ever forget to run him. Yeah, he's, Derek Henry is on pace right now for 1,979 yards and 22 touchdowns, which would

be his best season. He did go over 2,001 year, but he had 17 touchdowns. So he is 30 years old and it's just, I mean's we've seen it in the last couple weeks where even at the beginning of the game Maybe he's not getting these big runs and then just lean on him lean on him lean on him Lamar Lamar's feet Lamar's throwing all the sudden. It's like fuck now We got to worry about Derek Henry in the fourth quarter. Yeah, and he salted that game away Basically just running it through you guys. They could they could have beat us in any number of different ways. But yeah, Derek Henry at the end, nothing you can do about it when you have those personnel out there on defense. But yeah,

Raven's very good team. Commander's Super Bowl window open act accordingly. All decisions should be made from this point forward that we're going to win a Super Bowl in the next five years. Yep, or at least try to, which is it feels like that It feels good to say that yeah, like and mean it that I believe that this is this is our shot So you just said super super window now open. Yeah, what was the crazy shit? You were gonna say if you won the game Oh my god, I was gonna say this year say MVP Jaden. I was gonna say yeah Super Bowl this year I was gonna say I'm never gonna lose another game again. I was gonna say, yeah, Super Bowl this year. I was gonna say, I'm never gonna lose another game again. I was gonna say I'm six feet tall.

I was gonna get fucking wild with it. Yeah. But yeah, mostly I was gonna say Super Bowl this year. Yeah. Super Bowl this year. But I'm not saying that. I'm not saying that. I'm thinking the offs.

And you did say at the beginning, which I agree with, like, the Ravens, it felt like their defense after what happened with the Bengs, it felt like their defense after what happened with the Bengals, maybe just the Dean Pease effect. It's not that like Jayden Daniels in a bad game. It just wasn't ever easy for him. Yeah. You know what I mean? Like they made their, they let up touchdowns, but they made you work for him. And that's, that's kind of all they need to do with their offense is just have a defense that is a little bit better than what it has been a couple of these games this year to be Super Bowl champs. Yeah, for the Ravens on offense, everything looked exceptionally easy today. For the commanders

on offense, everything looked pretty hard, but we still managed to score a decent amount of points against the defense. But yeah, the Ravens defense much better. I have a question for you. And now I like Dan Quinn, recurring guest, friend of the program, backwards hat. Love it. It always does look a little funny when he does the backwards hat, uh, halftime interview. Yeah. Cause he's like, like, whoa, this guy's a little too chill. Yeah.

Like he's, he, for some reason, when you see it from afar on the sideline, it makes sense. But then when he's talking it's like hey, man I don't want to sound like coward but maybe put your hat forward just for this interview, right? So sometimes during the games he like he gets nervous and he starts turning it around. I like that So yeah, I think it's just however you manage to catch him I think he needs to put the hat on forwards when he's talking to the refs Yeah, cuz we saw the refs they're like, is this a drunk fan that got down on the sideline? That's just screaming at me? Or is this a head coach? Yeah, I listen. Dan Quinn, I think

he's doing a great job so far. I did too. I think in a couple games, the defense has looked okay. And that's kind of the best that we can hope for this year. Our floor is like the worst defense in the NFL. And our ceiling is like 15th. And you so if we can settle around like 20 to 22, then I think we'll make the playoffs. Yeah, and you get to play the Panthers next week. Which is great. Which is a lot of fun. I don't know how I can get rid of this jinx

because when I looked ahead at the schedule, I was looking at when the Bears game was, I was like, oh yeah, that's right, we got the Panthers next. I think I said out loud, we have a bye next week because we play the Panthers. You did. I regretted saying that the instant that I said it is

There any way that I can retract no, I was doing satire. Don't be worried. I'm not panthers. I'm not worried It's panthers you also I mean the schedule is I Think you guys are your playoff team like the skit like because you have to play a lot of NFC's opponents But the NFC's doesn't look that great Yeah to play a lot of NFC East opponents, but the NFC East doesn't look that great. Yeah. Whereas like the Bears have played all the NFC North and the NFC North is just kicking the shit out of everyone. We should say that this is Lamar, now he's what, 22 and one against the NFC. Yeah.

So 23 and one. 23 and one against the NFC, which is a stat that makes no sense, but it's awesome. Someone wanted me to point out, I just saw this scrolling on Twitter on Friday They wanted me to point out that whenever we bring that up We have to point out that the one loss is to Daniel Jones and the Giants. That's fascinating. That's but that's fair Yeah, to be like hey, he's the one the one loss was to Daniel Jones and the Giants Well, he's faster than Lamar. Remember that that's true ran like 26 miles an hour. That's true Okay next game

Eagles 20 Brown 16. Max, I want to talk about the Eagles Nick Sirianni in a second, but we have to talk about Dachon because I have a thought maybe we're thinking about the Dachon Watson thing the wrong way because everyone obviously says he should be benched. He should be benched. He's bad. He actually played like a little bit better today, but he was still really bad. I saw a tweet that Austin Gale wrote that Jamarcus Russell lost minus 63.8 total EPA on dropbacks in weeks 1 through 6 in 2009. Deshaun Watson has broken that record from the from the quarterbacks they've charted since 2000. He's 734th through this first six weeks

of the season. He's got a minus 66.2 total EPA on drop backs. That's how much he's lost. I don't even know what EPA is but when when I saw this, I saw this, uh, he listed them all. It's the Sean Watson, seven 34 David Carr, Mark Bolger, Josh Rosen, Achille Smith, Jay Fielder, uh, Blaine Gabbard, Jamarcus Russell. That's the list he's on. And he's at the bottom of that one. You know, what's crazy is that he's played against bad defenses. Yeah. He hasn't played against good defenses yet. He hasn't played against good defense. And so I've been thinking about it. Maybe. So everyone thinks he should be bench, which he should be bench. But what if we're just

thinking about it wrong? What if this is just the Browns actually doing justice, uh, in a public shaming way, they're like, he's so bad and we know he's so bad. He can't play quarterback. Uh, we're just going bad, he can't play quarterback. We're just going to make him continue to play quarterback and publicly shame him because that's the only justice he'll ever have. And smoke the whole pack of cigarettes. Yeah. Go out back and smoke a whole carton of Browns for me.

Like he's never going to, like he's paying people off in his lawsuits, all that's going on. What's the only way that the league can punish him? Make him continue to play quarterback. Yeah, that's one way to look at it. I was just trying to find a new angle for, I mean, he's just so bad. Well, I think it makes you feel good that a guy with all that sketchy shit in his background is having to like go out there every day and do the thing that he is the worst at and do it publicly and have everybody know how much money that he makes. Yeah. He's not having fun. At the end of the day, you can at least be like, if you're a Browns fan, you can probably say confidently, Deshaun

Watson is having less fun playing than I am watching. Yes. I think that's probably true. That's what I'm saying. He's, he basically has to go to a job that he's so bad at and he has to keep going to it and everyone's going to him It is it's it's torture which I'm for For the torture. Yeah pro torture. Yeah, I'm pro torture in this case. So after Browns fans. Yeah Browns fans That's unfortunate that you have to be a part of this We have to do like you have to put on the rose-colored shades and guardians Yeah, you got the guardians and also if you're a Browns fan It's it's not like your coaching staff is playing him because they think he's the best option

No, you kind of have to deal with this. Yeah, there's nothing else you can do about it Just just let us keep going with the torture for a little bit longer Yeah So to Sean after the game said me being the quarterback of this offense with Kevin and Ken Dorsey We have to do something a little bit I don't know what we have to do But we need to do something to lock in so we don't cost ourselves any more games Because we've got to really turn this around so there they know that we have to do, but we need to do something to lock in so we don't cost ourselves any more games because we've got to really turn this around.

So they're, they know that they have to do something. Yeah. Which is a good step to know that this isn't good. He's admitting public. They're finally realizing it. What would something needs to happen? Do you think it was a field? Yeats to read this out.

The Browns are the first team in 10 years to score under 20 points in each of its first six games. And they are they have one touchdown in the last 29 offensive drives. They also through six games do not have over 200 yards passing in any of those. Yeah, it's crazy. Their only touchdown today was on the block field goal that got returned. It was and then we were watching the game and we're in the gambling cave and people got all types of types of different action. I had the over so I

was hoping for a tie 2020 game knowing that I would then get it because it was over 42. And I kept on saying people were freaking out because they wanted the Browns to score. I was like the Browns are not going to score from goal line. They got to the three yard line and what they take two penalties went backwards ran some plays that had no chance of getting in the end zone. That's the Browns. It was the most obvious I wish I could have bet my life in that moment. The Browns would not score a touchdown because they are incapable of running like a real offense when a real offense needs to be run.

Because what happens is Deshaun gets the ball in his hands and then he runs around for like five seconds and he looks like he's lost. He actually looks like he gets lost on the football field. And then there's three guys that sack him At the same time. Yeah, he's the most sacked in terms of like bodies number of bodies that have hit him I would put that up there right with the the David Carr rookie year Yeah, cuz when he takes a sack he gets hit by like the entire defensive line and it's crazy Maybe maybe Kevin's defense. He's just a really good ally. Maybe he's seeing all these lawsuits I'm saying and he's like, you know

what? I'm going to have Deshaun get the shit kicked out of him. That's what I'm saying. Offensive line. You guys pretend that you're injured. We'll put your backups in. I'll tell them not to block. And so we'll intentionally just get Deshaun Watson. Just have the shit kicked out of him. That's what I'm saying. It's torture that they're, they are publicly shaming him and hurting him every single week that he has to remain the starter. And again, sorry, Brown's fans, that does suck. But it is, if you look at it that way, it makes sense why they're starting him. Like he's a bad person. Let's make him fucking play quarterback because he can't play quarterback.

Is the Sean Watson getting sacked a million times a game and looking like a complete bum on the field doing more than the me too movement ever did to protect women. That's all the youngsters out there have talked to several youngsters are watching the games and they're like, I'm never going to sexually harass a woman because I might end up playing quarterback for the Browns. See, it does make sense when you flip your whole your whole viewing of this of the Sean Watson is because it makes no sense that he's still playing. Obviously has them is saying that you have to play him. But it's every week that everyone just goes online or on like football night in America, Florio and the gang, they just have like a, they're like, all right, a block Cowboys, B block, Deshaun has to be benched. That's all they do. That's it. That's the whole show.

You think Tony Dungey even looks at Deshaun as like, I could fix him. Yeah. I could fix that guy. They don't realize that they need to just stop. Like don't even bring up that he should be benched. Just use the whole B block and just talk about how awful he is at playing quarterback and continue the torture. It's scared straight.

Yeah. Kids, kids watch what this could be you. Yeah. You don't start respecting women. It's, it's, it's brutal. And I do feel bad for Browns fans But guardians guardians, it was funny seeing the the back-to-back days Fanta going crazy for the Guardians and then in his unfinished basement. Yeah, I came out the Browns

Um, there's another part of this game that we should talk about Philadelphia Eagles are back win this game Like it was a close game, but they were better than the Browns We we knew that max Jalen Hurts started slow AJ Brown, which we told you on Friday was gonna he was gonna eat He's back. He looked great 116 yards also that crazy play at the end where they just salted the game away by throwing like a 40 yard bomb was sick so it was good game. Eagles back off a bye. Nick Sirianni after the game or while the game was still going on

looked into the crowd and started basically getting in an argument with the Eagles crowd in the weirdest like way possible when you win by four points against Deshaun Watson, who's again, he's playing quarterback is torture. Uh, it was so bizarre. And then Nick Sirianni goes to his post game press conference and basically was like, here are all my kids. Don't ask me any tough questions. What the fuck is going on? Max has he lost his mind? He is also shaved his head. He also shaved shaved his head which is a classic sign of losing his mind Yeah So it is actually if you look it up a lot of times when people are going through like nervous breakdowns

Or they're trying to reclaim control in their lives They shave their heads because they feel like it gives them a fresh start correct feel bad sir I need showing up today I think that everybody thought the same thing like this is we, we saw what happened with Britney Spears. Is Sirianni in a conservatorship? What's going on? I have no idea. He's acting bizarre right now. The city of Philadelphia doesn't like him. Obviously doesn't help when you're

jawing at the team for booing. And apparently some people said there was fire, Sirianni chants going on in the crowd. Some people were saying that. Some people were saying I was at the game. There were no fire Shariani chance So I don't really know what to believe what to believe there. Um, and Then I think after the game he was asked about it and he was and he said He was I was just excited to get the win. I appreciate the link support So like I don't even know what that means when they were asked about him yelling at the fans

So he definitely yelled at it was definitely Philly fans saying fire Sirianni after a win and he was like we just won I'm mad. I'm gonna go yell at him. Hey, he did this with like I'm sure that's what happened kids in his laps Yeah talking to his kids during the press conference, which listen, I'm not kid shaming him, but it was, it felt very deliberate for him to bring his children to a press conference when he knew that people were going to be like, Hey, what was that dude? Why were you yelling at our fans? Yeah. And then when asked about the booze, he goes, we thrive. We thrive when the crowd cheers for us. That's all I, that's all I say. We hear all I say we hear them when they boo We don't necessarily necessarily like it. I don't think it's productive for anybody blah blah blah

But when they cheer we like it like what does that? What he's losing his mind he yeah losing his mind. He can't he can't be here. He can't be you can't be Like if that's the way you're gonna react. Yeah to like the fans Acting like the fans have acted in Philadelphia for a hundred years, like that's not going to do anything, dude. Do you know who would never react to the fans in that situation and bring his kids to the press conference after?

Mike Vable. I was going to say Bill Belichick. Yeah. That's a good point. Either or, right? Cause his kids are coaching at Washington. Yeah, I don't know I think his time is I feel like honestly I feel like it's gonna at the end of the year be a mutual a mutual parting of ways

Yeah, so do you think there's a chance it happens cuz so about this game like you you you are down on the Eagles Yeah, I was down on the Eagles. They didn't look great But realistically it should have been a 23 to 9 game. Right. They they should have dominated that game. They like they had the they had the fluke punt block field goal which was a 10-point swing. I don't know Jalen Hurts didn't look bad it's probably. He looked bad to start but then he figured it out. Yeah he started over five but then since then he was he was very good No turnovers, which is a rarity in a jail and hurts game. Yeah, I

Don't know They just like this was like a spot where like you would like to see them beat the shit out of a team and they just Can't do that. They just can't do that. Yeah. Yeah Max I know you're really down on surrounding right now, but you don't you don't want him fired right now, do you? wouldn't mind it I I'm indifferent to it. Like I understand not firing him. It's like the middle of the season and hey we're still fighting for a playoff spot and Hey, you have a inquisitive face on no, I'm just I'm trying to hear him out. Yeah, and what do you think I?

Feel like this is max Sunday night max and then the second that a game starts Yeah, and one bad play happens. It's like get him out of here. Yeah, which is that which is sure to me It's like not you know drunken words speak sober thoughts But the passionate thoughts that you have during a game like that's what you think yeah You want them you want them go you want them gone right now saying him? Yeah, they're not but like you want him gone You want I don't want there to be a press press conference tomorrow and have it be Jeffrey Lurie's like When you disrespect our fans you disrespect the organization you hate you can't be here and disrespect the Sun wouldn't Yeah, right, right and hate that like I like you want Jeffrey Lurie to be like I have the fans back no matter what they pay your salaries

Don't ever forget it Nick Sirianni. There's the door. He's been so dumb this year like he's just he's actually I think having like a mental breakdown that was so bizarre. Yeah everything everything It felt like the Eagles were on a road game the way he was yelling at the fans Yeah, and he's always kind of been like that He's always been super emotional too. Yeah, oh, yeah, even going back to his first year and filly I mean the Super Bowl when he cried yeah, he cried. That's it I mean, that's the behavior of somebody who's on edge can't control Yeah, you can't control their emotions big Dom big Dom Italian men. Yeah big Dom

I'll slap him in the face. I know act like a man Yeah He was he was standing right next to him in the beginning of that clip too and then Sirianni went rogue. Even Big Dom couldn't anticipate going after the fans. I wouldn't have. There's certain lines you don't cross. I wouldn't have. Yeah, I've been shocked that Big Dom just decked Nick Sirianni.

He's like, those are my people. Yeah. What are you doing? They could. Pictures of assholes? Yeah. Yeah, you didn't show your ass crack during this game. Yeah, I'm sure somebody will go through every frame of the every no you you came in dressed as baggy as possible for all on you were you

can you stand up and show your fit to the to the people watching why not? No, the best way I described it was Max came in looking like like it it was, he was like a Sopranos character who, his wife hired him a personal trainer and he skipped out on it but he still had to dress and then he went to the Bing to hang with the boys. Watch the game. He's wearing like baggy shorts and a baggy shirt and he's like, yeah my fucking wife got me this personal trainer, I ain't going there, that's some fruit stuff. Yep.

It's fair. You're covered up. It's fair. Max, if you look at your schedule though, you got the Giants, the Bengals, the Jaguars, the Cowboys coming up next. Oh, those are winnable. You could win all those games. Yeah, they're winnable games. And then, and then you win all those games and then Sirianni's dug in like a tick. I think he's not leaving. The Giants three and a half point favorites on the road. Damn.

I wonder, is there a time that an NFL coach has ever been fired after they won a game? Like in the middle of the season, obviously some coaches win the last game of the season, they're fired on Monday. But like in season, you win a game, you're fired. I would be, it would work here. Yeah. It would work here.

If there were ever to be a spot. Yeah. Yeah. It would work. This is the perfect spot for it. Doug Peterson next week if they win. Maybe Gruden? Did Gruden win his last game? Oh, that's a good question. I don't know. Cause his was all off the field stuff. He insulted Commissioner Goodell.

Let's see. Called him an anti-football pussy. So you're just, what are you out of a 10 right now for the Eagles? Five. Five? Oh man that's sad. That breaks my heart to hear you say five. Five. Five. That's where I mean that's that's where I'm at. Mike Trout was at the game. Yeah he needs to be in Philly. He needs to be in baseball. Max, would you if we're doing like multi-sport city trades would you trade Joel Embiid to the Lakers? No for Mike Trout to the Phillies. No Talk about a guy who can never stay healthy is Mike Trout. Oh, well Mike Trout and Sean McVay

Hey Mike Trout's a friend. Yes Mike Trout Sean McVay. I love Mike Trout. I want him to be for Embiid and Playoff P Mike Trout shot I love I love Mike Trout. I want him to be for Embiid and playoff P Do we got to find this stat if there's ever been it doesn't yeah, it doesn't count I'll make the roster it doesn't count winning the last game of the season. Yes Season firing yeah All right fine get our best guy to memes or he resigned he wasn't fired We got oh yeah, we got to find it we're gonna find a coach who's been fired midseason after a win I doubt I can't think of I mean if any team can do it

It's it would be so great and it would be great if it was just like yeah, we have the fans back Yeah, can't do that. Can't be yelling at the fans Disrespected the city and they lost that game before Gruden to know to the Bears No, oh, yeah, it was that in London. No, maybe no we lost them in London. I think Okay next game Buck Saints this was a fucking crazy game bucks 51 Saints 27 This game had the following scores bucks up 17 to nothing Saints up 27 24 bucks up 51 27 so it was the Saints scored 27 points in

the second quarter and didn't score in any of the other quarters and the bucks finished this game on a 27 Unanswered points yet sucked for the for the Saints that a lot of they got hurt And so he was knocked out for the game their offense kind of didn't do jack shit after that Spencer rattler looked good for like a quarter. Yeah, second quarter Saints will always have that I think what happened was so he looked good in the first half and then Todd Bulls is like what the fuck am I doing? He's a rookie. Let me just blitz him Yeah He looked good in the first half and then Todd Bowles was like, what the fuck am I doing? He's a rookie. Let me just blitz him.

Yeah. So Todd Bowles, if you knew the game plan going into it was that Todd Bowles was just going to do all the crazy shit that Spencer Rattler had never seen. Yeah. And he did that in the second half. And he did tricks on it in the second half. Yeah, he did tricks in it. But, and Baker had the most full stat sheet ever.

He had 24 for 36, 325 yards touchdowns three interceptions and he like also Throw in just an injury that we thought was like very serious that he's such a tough dude that he was fine and like three Downfield blocks to and three yelling in someone else's face. Yeah Baker makes me want to play football It's the best. Yeah, just he just goes out there and plays football what a day for Lincoln Riley, by the way Yeah watching all the all the protege, all the prize pupils get starts here. A lot of people are going to have to apologize to Lincoln Riley. Yeah. Was he wearing a house divided shirt? Yeah, he, it was, uh, he, basically Rattler probably doesn't like Lincoln too much though. I'm going to guess I would say no. Uh, but yeah, Spencer Rattler fine enough, but the

bucks offense was, uh, Chris Godwin deserves to be given more credit for being awesome because I know he was awesome when they won the Super Bowl he's awesome before that he got hurt a couple years but he he's having an awesome awesome season and he had I think it was like 105 yards after catch today yeah and he's just you kind of forget about him because Mike Evans is so good I was gonna say he's like Mike Evans compared to other elite receivers in NFL history is the same as like Chris Godwin Compared to Mike Evans during the Chris Godwin era. Yeah, like he's very very good But we just need to throw some more respect on Chris Godwin's name because he's been very good this year

He's had a very good career and I think he got kind of forgotten a little bit and Yeah, Chris Godwin needs more respect. I have an insult stat for you. Oh, for Dennis Allen. Okay, so Dennis Allen head coach of the Saints. Guess how many teams he's beaten as coach with the Saints that have a winning record? I think he's at 40 games now. For three, three, he's got three. And two of those were in September. So they were like at the start of the year. Oh, three, he's got three and two of those were in September. So they were like at the

start of the year, there was a Seahawks team that was one and oh, now the other cowboys he beat this year one and oh, oh, that's not on the list then. Oh yeah. Cowboys were one and oh at the time. Yeah. Cause he beat the Browns. Yeah. Good point. So now let me amend that it's four, but, um, nailed it. But of those those four games two of them are from September excuse me now three of the four are from September and Two of them are gardener minchew teams. Oh wow, which is just an interesting fun little that is very fun So he can beat he can beat a winning team if gardener minchew is starting like on a short week Where he's a backup quarterback coming in Dennis Allen just gets forgotten as okay that guy stinks. He stinks. He stinks

By the way, I just looked it up How old do you think Chris Godwin is? Chris Godwin 34. No, he's 29 28 Yeah, it feels like because he's just been around and You know won a Super Bowl. He'd feel like he's been good Ever since he got there. But yeah, he's having an awesome year is 500 500 yards and five touchdowns through six weeks. Yeah, pretty damn good Chris Godwood needs more respect be at Dennis Allen I

Guess what you could say about Dennis Allen is people just forget about Dennis Allen. That's probably his best So why is he so forgettable? Is it because he looks like if you took every NFL coach in history and like combined them all into one composite sketch, he looks like Dennis Allen? I also- The most average appearing guy? It's his appearance. I think it's his name.

His name is very formulaic. Two first names. AI. Yeah. Dennis Allen. Yeah. He's like, OK. What is that?

All right. Dennis Allen. And yeah, he's just kind, she's like, okay, what is that? All right, Dennis Allen and Yeah, he just kind of he's been around forever, but never done anything that would make me be like, ooh Dennis Allen that guy's good. He doesn't even really have anything that he's good at right? No, I'm not talking about just as a head coach. He doesn't have a specialty like Todd Bulls You're like, yeah Todd Bulls dial it up. He'll blitz the fuck out of you. He'll do weird shit. He'll have dudes coming at you from angles that Deshaun Watson can only dream of. But with Dennis Allen, it's like, there's nothing where I think Dennis Allen blank mastermind.

He also, yeah, no, there is nothing. And he also, because the Raiders have had a history of just cycling through coaches, he's just in that list of Raider coaches that happened. Yeah, you're like, Oh yeah, that's right. And then he just ended up on the saints because he was with Sean Payton and got that job. So I think that's also I think that's part of it is that there are certain Raiders coaches that just keep every two years they would fire one. So you just kind of forgot about him. Yeah, that's probably true. And he doesn't really get that fired up. Yeah, he just kind of, it looks like his job is to sit on the sidelines and just accept losses.

Yeah. And he's very good at it. Yeah I don't really know what, what does Dennis Allen do? He doesn't do anything really. Four and 12, four and 12, oh and four were his three years with the Raiders as the head coach. And he's doing a lot better with the Saints because he's seven and ten nine and eight two and four. He's 26 and 50 as a head coach. 26 and 51. That's crazy. He's so bad. He's so bad and this team look feels like this was kind of a quick game because if the Bucs were just it just kept on they kept on scoring kept on scoring. Yeah they put it was one of those games where it's like okay the Bucks were just, it just kept on, they kept on scoring, kept on scoring. Yeah, they put, it was one of those games where it's like, okay, the Bucks hate the Saints. They fight them all the time.

Yeah. They're not going to stop scoring through this game. Remember two weeks in, they were, the Saints did win the first two weeks of the season. They did. They were the Super Bowl champs after two weeks. So if Derek Carr- But it was against the Cowboys. The Cowboys was like the convincing one. Yeah. Yeah, well they beat the Panthers and Cowboys, but we were all like, was against the Cowboys the cat the Cowboys was like the convincing one. Yeah

Yeah, well, they beat the Panthers and Cowboys But we were all like oh the Cowboys are good because they they're always beat the Browns Yeah, they were good last we realized how bad the Browns were yeah, but this is this is definitely the win We're just like what how how did this? Look the Saints there. Oh, they're good. No, they're not did Spencer rattler show you enough to be like I want to see more Spencer rattler Mm-hmm. Uh, yeah, I just like Spencer rattlers name.

I think that Anthony Richardson was healthy.

Yeah. And they were just kind of like, we're going to go with a hot hand with Flacco. And uh, yeah, Flacco, he didn't have his best game today, but I did. I had a moment this morning. I don't know if you've had one of these big cat where you see Joe Flacco is going to start and you just stop. You just stop in a moment in time and you take a mental snapshot. Just remember today is a day where Joe Flacco will be playing football because it's not gonna last forever

We're nearing the end of that road and the NFL just the world is so much Sunnier to me when I know that Joe Flacco is still a part of he said it after the game, too He's like being out here on Sunday never gets old and I'm gonna cherish it for as long as I can do it It's it's the best. I do feel like I was lied to by the Colts because all week I picked the Titans on every show we did and Joe Flack, because I was thinking Anthony Richardson was going to play. I also didn't think Michael Pittman was going to play. And because he had like a broken back five days ago and then he played and he made the two biggest plays of the game. The jump ball touchdown and then the third down to take ice the game.

So I feel lied to by the Colts, but a good win for the Colts and Joe Flacco, I think might be the starter because like you said, Anthony Richardson, I'm pretty sure is healthy. Yeah. And Flacco, he makes a couple of mistakes, but they're no worse than any Anthony Richardson mistake. Yeah. And then we said his best that jump ball that he threw up those those vintage flack. Oh, yeah Just being like, you know what fuck it. I think I got a guy down there That's taller than their guy is in some throw it towards him. Michael Pittman made a great catch

Yeah, and I was like damn it. I feel lied to because Michael Pittman is good so flacco now has the longest streak of two touchdowns and starts in In the NFL of anybody. Yes. So no other quarterback has as many consecutive starts throwing two touchdown passes as Joe Flacco does. He has as many touchdown passes now as Deshaun does, Deshaun Watson does, and he's only started two games. Yeah. So things are going good for Joe. Again, don't know how long he's gonna be the starter. At some point they're gonna want to see Anthony Richardson play and just see what

they have. But for now, just enjoy every Sunday that you wake up and Joe's getting a start. I agree. I 100% agree. It does feel like one of those situations where we just need to make a mental capture of just like Joe Flacco. It's having the best time and his career was over like five years ago Remember when he was on the Jets and the Broncos and the Eagles? Yeah, and it just he's back and he's playing great and the Colts should keep playing him. I agree

I know that it probably doesn't make sense long term But it also doesn't probably make sense long term at the Richardson. Yeah, I mean, I think if you're trying to win football games That's what you're supposed to do. Then you should start Joe. Yeah, it's that simple. Yeah Okay, so I feel I feel bad for for Titans fans cuz shit's getting crazy for Calvin Ridley He said I need I need some targets in the beginning of the fucking game to shit's getting crazy for me. Yep He had eight targets today zero catches in the last three games Calvin Ridley has two catches for 14 yards. Not great. It feels like if you're handicapping receivers that might end up with the Chiefs

by the end of the season, Calvin Ridley is probably up there with his teammate Deandre Hopkins. Yep. Yeah. I'd say so. Will Levis, friend of the program, love Will Levis. I think you got to bench him for a little bit here because the problem is the Titans are not a bad football team in its totality. Every game they've basically been in. Their defense is good. He just feels lost out there. He feels lost and at some point you keep losing these games by three points or you know four points you know just a random interception or a miss pass and you're everyone in that locker rooms like fuck we we should have three wins already yeah he did the spider-man celebration today too that was awesome it was a cool celebration He also This is a stat from our friend at

Stat Hall who does a great blog every Monday morning everyone check it out with all the sad stats Will Levis is the first QB to throw an interception in the first five games of the season since Jamus Patrick Mahomes six days ago. Oh, there we go. Yeah, that's fun. That's a good That's a fun stat use that stat go around to the bar and tell people that. Yeah. Will Leviss threw an interception the first five games. Also the last person to do it was Patrick Mahomes this year. Yeah. Good for Will. Yeah. Good for what he's on a good company. That's a good, Hey, listen,

we just put Will Leviss and Patrick Mahomes in the same sentence. When I watched Will Leviss play, he gives me big time, like Jeremy shocky vibes. Yeah. Like he's that emotional after every single play. Yeah, which might not be the best thing for a quarterback. You want your quarterback to like not screaming people's faces, shoot webs at him. Also, will if you're listening, I would like for you to say hello or hey, I'm sorry to the guy who's whose knee got taken out on the sidelines. I think that guy had to just have better presence of mind. He just watched him roll like he watched the play come at him. Yeah, that didn't give a thumbs up. That poor guy reached out after. Yeah, that guy that guy was in an air cast. He was on the stretcher for what felt like a half

hour. He was wearing receiver gloves, which I loved and then he gave a thumbs up, which I love. But yeah, I don't know. People on the sidelines. It feels like it's happened a few times this year. He was staring at the play. Yeah. I don't know. He gave feet up. I think you lose track of how fast these guys are coming at you. Yeah. You also, it's kind of like being at the dog park. You got to always keep a little bend in your knees. Keep your knees bent. You don't want a Labrador just running into the back of your knees if you have stiff legs. Wear pads. I want to see a guy in like full kit, shoulder pads, helmet, knee pads. Was he holding the chains? I think he was. He's a chain guy. Maybe walk around with like a little, a tiny little wall right in front of your legs. Yeah. Or a dog. Or a dog.

Actually have a dog with you. Yeah. Yeah. But yeah, that guy, that was tough. But I just, I wanted to work out for will I just think you probably have to like if you're Brian Callahan again you're you're you lost week one to the Bears that was a winnable game that will have us made those mistakes late you lost to the Jets week two that was a winnable game that he fumbled in the red zone you got killed by Malik Willis that made sense and then today that was a winnable game So at some point you don't want the rest of the team to be like hey, what the fuck are we doing here? Yeah, and if if the Titans keep losing then I think that's actually gonna make Joe Flacco keep starting

Yeah, cuz the the Colts can make the playoffs. Yes. It's not out of the picture to think that they might be able to yes I'm not great. Obviously Texans are the best team in that division, but they could yeah Colts could be a wild card team. Colts could absolutely be a wild card team. Let me look right now. I mean they're what three and three. Colts could be a wild card team. Joe Flacco if Joe Flacco takes either in the wild card right now there's seven seed.

Love that. If he took the Browns and the Colts to the playoffs in back-to-back years is the backup That that might be more impressive than a Super Bowl I actually think Joe Flacco has the opportunity to become back-to-back come back player of the year Yeah, which would know that's a record that'll never be broken if it happens. That's crazy. Yeah, they're that he could That yeah, keep playing Joe Flacco for us for us Okay, next up Packersers 34, Cardinals 13. Packers kicked the shit out of the Cardinals.

We said it on Friday, Jordan Love's gonna be under center more, and he was, and you saw it, that Christian Watson touchdown. That was vintage Jordan Love under center play action pass. He had four touchdowns. He looks all the way back. For the first two games back from his injury, he had slow starts. He did not today. So it feels like the Packers, uh, that's totally taken care of the Packers though. We alluded to this.

The NFC North is so good. The Packers are the first team ever through six weeks to be foreign to and last in the division. Yeah. Every team is foreign to or better. Uh, right now, they have the four highest point differentials in the entire division. Yeah, every team is four and two or better. Right now they have the four highest point differentials in the entire NFL. Yeah. All in that division. Yeah. So the Vikings are plus 63, the Lions plus 60, the Bears plus 47, the Packers plus 41. The second best division when you like add up all those numbers together, the second best division is the AFC West west with a plus 20 yeah total and i just said the packers to 11 the packers are in last with a plus 41 yeah on aggregate aggregate the nfc north is 17 and five overall and a plus

211 point differential yeah it's crazy it's nutsens iron. But yeah, the Packers and here's the thing with the Packers to their defense is really good. And that was a smart move. Jeff Haffley bringing him in they've last year the Packers had 18 turnovers forced on defense. That's the entire season. This year they have 17 through the first six weeks of the season. It's pretty well taken the ball away. They had three fumbles in the second half, four fumbles on the Cardinals.

And yeah, they're a scary good team. Like Jordan Love looked fine in all his receiver dobs. Obviously that was a weird situation last week. He comes back two touchdowns. Christian Watson comes back faster than we expected. He scores a touchdown. They're good. I don't know what else to say.

They're good. Jordan Love's very good. Packers are definitely good. They're they're good. I don't know what else to say. They're good. Yeah, Jordan loves very good Packers are definitely good. No interceptions today though. Have they fallen off that defense? That's true. Yeah, think about it Yeah the cardinals are that was a very classic Cardinals spot of the biggest win they've had in a long time Against the 49ers that second half last week having to fly all the way to Green Bay and then just an absolute stinker of a performance 13 penalties three fumbles just a stinker so because they lost this it doesn't matter what they do in their next game the Cardinals will have gone

three years without winning back-to-back football games Wow three calendar years that's insane pretty crazy I admire the consistency actually yeah it's like you really inconsistent win a game Just don't watch the next next week doesn't matter bet against them. Yeah, but yeah, I I didn't I'm worried about the Packer one worried about every I mean though NSE North is just really good had they not there Been NSE North games there have that's why the Packers are last they lost the Vikings so the Packers are foreign to but their Own one in the NSE North that's why it's technically their last the Bears are also four and two the Lions are four and one and then the Vikings are five and oh so but yeah no it's crazy the schedule the Bears don't play their first NFC North game until week 10 and they play all six of their NFC North games down the

stretch. That's why you had to win these games Hank. That's why they were must wins. That's why these are, and we got a couple more must wins going against the Cardinals and the Patriots after the commander's game. Gotta must win them. Gotta put the tag on them. Cause Packers are really good. I don't know what else to say. It hurts me to say it. Jordan Love under center is a weapon. He's doing his, his fuck shit where he throws off his back foot doing fadeaways. He's and he's so he's the best in the NFL throwing fadeaways. It's so frustrating because when he throws the the fadeaway it just 100% of the time

ends up being a touch. There's always somebody down there watching him and Kirk Cousins have like the two opposite fadeaways when Kirk Cousins does a fadeaway. He like turtles as he throws it and starts running away from the guy that's gonna sack him yeah when Jordan love does it he fades away off his back foot and throws out a perfect angle that lands in his receivers hand yeah he can catch it oh here's a good one looking ahead you want to play whose line is anyway we'll pull up DraftKings Hank you again your phone I got it it. Is dead? It's out there. Two, what do you mean it's out there?

It's out there. No distractions. What are you? Oh, you're doing that as a thing? He's doing a digital cleanse. Oh, this is a great game next week. Packers versus Texans in Green Bay. Whose line is it anyway?

Draft Kings. In Green Bay, Packers versus Texans. I'm gonna go Packers minus two. I'm gonna say two and a half. Okay. Find it for us, VFT. My phone's loading. It's been loading.

Also the hot... I have it. Yeah, go ahead, give it to us. You give it to us, Max. VFT, you wanna do a guess? Yeah, so what's... Okay, they're in Green Bay. Yeah, Texans.

Texans at Packers. I'm gonna say Packers minus one. It is the Packers minus three. Wow. Okay, the full three Packers are good. The hot new play the Packers did it, the Bears did it. And then I saw that the Rams had done it last week is the like play action pump fake and then just throw it to the wide open tight end in the middle of it's pump fake left pump fake right tight end

down the seam yeah the Bears scored a touchdown with that to Cole Comet and then a Packers fan was like oh we did that last year I said cool dude you want a fucking cookie well you can't fucking do the same play they invented it probably was McVeigh it It's probably probably invented. It's probably college play. Yeah, it's a hot play Packers fans fucking suck. It's still my joy. Thank you. I want to hear what your best plays are Shark wheel hot hottest plays Flea flicker mm-hmm the Julie Nettleman mm-hmm the Tyler Warren play on The Julie Nettleman.

The Tyler Warren play on the Penn State Tyler Warren play was so cool. Yeah, that was rad. That was awesome. Four verts. I like rugby. I'm with you on the rugby. Did you see that play Hank? No. Andy Koldernick, he drew up, Tyler Warren the tight end for the Penn State snapped the ball from, he was basically the snapped the ball from he was basically the the Tight end or the tackle. Yeah, he was the tack. He's the left tackle He was all the way on the end and he snapped the ball and then went and ran down the field How's that legal he was eligible receiver? He wasn't he wasn't state of the center after sent the ball. No Anyone on the line can snap the ball You have to have a certain number of players that are on the line of scrimmage. It was crazy. Look at the play

Hank. What the fuck? Yeah. It was awesome. It was also such a cool play that they didn't even it got overshadowed how sick overshadowed how sick the catch was. That's a great play. He I think he would do I think he was technically the center in this play. That's what they did. They have five guys on the line of scrimmage. Yeah he was the center because they listed it he was like all the positions he played and they're like yeah he played center. It's crazy. Yeah he was in the middle he just they He just they didn't have anyone on his left side. Yeah, yeah, yeah exactly is Sick so that is that one of your favorite place. Yeah, okay annexation of Puerto Rico

Hanks hop nice one nice one. What about the fake pun-pun? That's never been done But it's still gonna be one of your favorite place My dad says this all the time about puns. I'm meaning to say it every time I watch football game with my daddy He says why don't they just kick it without catching it? So if a punter, oh, I like that hit it out of the air. I like that. Yeah Yes, like like like kind of like you're hitting a pitch. Yeah Hi and he just kick it I like. I don't think it would work

I like it. Yeah, I like it too. Is there any advantage to doing it? Get it off quick. Yeah, get it all get out quick unblockable. Yeah We also had in in the Oregon Ohio State. I like this. I like this Yeah, but which doesn't work anymore in the NFL because they change the rule But they I don't think they did it on purpose They kind of took credit for it on purpose afterwards but the organ kicker just kicked us tried to kick a squib kick and kicked it so hard off of the Ohio State player that it ended up being an onside and they got recovered I think they might have done it on purpose

I don't know you watch how the kicker runs up to the ball and then his reaction afterwards I think it was it was executed perfectly like hit the guy right in his right in his chest yeah it's a hard thing to do on purpose So it is I think he was just I think I think he just did a great job of taking credit for Now something awesome happening putting 12 guys on the field on purpose. That's on purpose. That's also that's the old buddy Ryan Yeah, Polish goal line. Yes. Um, okay Next up Texans Patriots Texans 41 Patriots 21 Mayday Hank What do we think? It was a fun game.

Did you have fun rooting for a rookie quarterback? I did have fun. I did have a moment of fear when Drake May went down. He did get pressured a lot. He did get thrown into the fire, but he threw a couple really nice deep balls couple mistakes but it was it was exciting. Give him a grade. I process things by hearing grades. So Hank the Scout watches Drake May today. What's the letter grade. I'm going to give Drake May

a solid B minus. I thought he was more like a B plus because one year. Bad interception. Bad interception. That's rookie quarterbacks. He threw three touchdowns three touch down to K. Sean Boutte was sick. Also he just proved what my thought was that Jacoby Bursette everyone's saying that hanks of the world being like can't put in Drake May he's going get hurt he's gonna get hurt. Jacobi Percet was so bad that was why he was getting hit so often and looked like he was getting hurt every play. The offense looked way better. It did look better. You could throw it deep. There was a couple I mean he was not still not getting a lot of time to throw balls off

and hammered on that one. He needed to step up and move around a lot but yeah it looked better. But he can do that So the line looked a little bit better than it has which go be reset where he can't throw it. Yeah Yeah, I thought he I thought he like he obviously made mistakes and yeah the interception the one that he just floated was bad But he's a rookie quarterback and he's getting his feet wet This is what you want Hank. Because now the more like lumps he takes, he's going to win a game sometime in the next couple months or so where it's going to be like,

oh shit, he started to put it all together. And then next year you have all the excitement being like he played and he did okay. So right now here's who he's got next. He's got the Jaguars, then the Jets Titans Bears Rams Dolphins Colts Cardinals not a bad run not a bad bad little stretch Not a bad little stretch. I would say play pretty good and you should be excited You should be excited. You got a new toy you get to watch your new toy every Sunday three touchdown throws in the first starts pretty crazy Yeah, you guys know what that's like Stop it

We're just fine. I'm trying to gas you up. What's your record for and to yeah me too. We're trying to gas you up Thank you. You so much to get ugly. Oh, yeah, we're so drugs in first. Okay You're definitely gonna ruin the vibes of like trying to be civil about all of our quarterbacks No, you know, it's just he just he's at one game and he's already doing it You know what's app it's gonna happen. Hank's gonna try to play you guys Yeah, you can't exist You're gonna try to play spoiler when me and big cat are gonna be fighting for the off's down the stretch and you're just gonna Be trying to psych us out and and hope that one of us doesn't make the playoffs

No, I want success for both of you guys. I've always said that yeah, I thought he played well so did I look clean jerseys look great love those jerseys they need to bring back the the 90 Scott Zolak blue ones next but Yeah, it was a fun. It was it was a better. You know Sunday than take Yeah, all the other ones this year think about what would happen at Jacoba percent started this game pro scored like seven points We also just had something like two really bad fumbles by receivers that not Drake Mase fault but it could have been closer. Yeah and the Texans um. I think the receivers aren't used to running with the ball because they haven't had

that many catches with Jacoby. Yeah it's a foreign. They're getting used to it. What is this in my hand? The uh hold it. My idea that the Texans might actually end up benefiting long term for Nico Collins being out. This Tankdale had his best game of the season. Joe Mixon was awesome again. He missed a few games, but he looked fast out there. Yeah, he had 103 yards and a touchdown. I think the Texans are going to be better off. Two touchdowns. He caught one too. Yeah, I mean the Texans are a very good team, and their defense is ferocious. Did Will Anderson have three sacks?

He had three sacks, a bunch of pressures. Uh, another fun stat here, the lighthouse. Um, the lighthouse is not won a game since Hank has touched it. Sorry. The rebuilding season? Memes also just pointed out a stat stat back here that they are One and eleven since they built the lighthouse No, and the old lighthouse is the most successful lighthouse of the history of lighthouses

But and that's not even up for debate. Oh No tear it down no comment. Yeah, I mean at least we have a stadium where you know people aren't getting injured every time they play there He's talking about my turf my grass Soldier feels nothing yeah, no, it's not great. Yeah So if you want to make fun of a couple little knickknacks like that's fine as long as the playing surface, which is you know what our franchise? Top five draft pick is gonna be playing on and what really matters. That's that's fine So you'd meet the lighthouse is just a little nit-nack. Yeah, he's deflecting No, I think they're just trying to you know

Why does not the reason the Patriots haven't won a game in the past couple years at home is not because of the lighthouse But I you know I understand. It's a good good little this good little dig you're being hater right now we'll see what happens time out to Hank Hank's hate time out time out time out time out time out okay time and you can resume hating no I'm not hating I'm just it's fine it's fine I get it you gotta get your digs in when you can. Yeah. Listen Hank, you know me. I want the Patriots. Drake May as far as I'm concerned. We're all rooting really hard for Drake May. Drake May is 0-1 at the Lighthouse. The previous record does not count. Got it. Nobody wants the Pats to be successful more than me and Big Cat.

We want Drake May to be good. The NFL is better when the Patriots are dynasty and nobody else is having fun. It's good. We gave them a B+. It's true. You gave him a B plus you gave him a B minus How many other NFL teams have TV shows made after him? It's a great show. Yeah, exactly who would play Drake May I Feel like Tim Tebow would Place Drake may yeah, the Texas are really good. I'm excited for this This Texans package games can be great. That's a measuring stick. It's gonna rockans are really good. I'm excited for this. This Texans package game is going to be great. That's a measuring stick game.

It's going to rock. For both of them I think. Yeah I know. Because I do think both are Super Bowl contending teams. And the Texans are, in the AFC it feels like right now it's them, the Chiefs and the Ravens. Am I wrong? Am I missing someone? Bills maybe, but they didn I missing someone? Bills maybe but they didn't look good. Bills have to yeah we'll see what happens. Bills have to win on Monday night for me to be they've had two bad games in a row so all right the afternoon games Lions 47 Cowboys 9 Jerry Jones 82nd birthday. Pretty bad

birthday. Oh boy. Do you think he had different sets of strippers to call for like happy birthday strippers and then sad birthday strippers. Um, no, I think he's saying all them all just yeah. Yeah, he's gonna spend way more money when he's sad Probably than if he was happy such a shame that he had such a bad birthday, but holy shit the Cowboys Uh, I think are just bad. Yeah, I mean we'll talk about the Lions.. The lines are very, very good, but the Cowboys, they're just ass. Dak is ass. Especially at home. Yeah. At home. They, they, since I don't want to bring Hank up again, but since, since Hank went to Dallas, they've gotten their ass kicked at home. Yeah. It's kind of crazy. Yeah. The losing touch. Rich Eisen treated out the last four the last four home games for the

Dallas Cowboys at halftime these are halftime scores. They were down 27 7 35 16 21 6 27 6 That's 110 to 35. Yeah, the last four halftime score was last time Hank was there He was there in the playoffs 27 7 1 I think yeah duck boats got it 27 7 1 so in their last four home games the Cowboys have allowed 167 points as the third most over four games span at home in NFL history Mmm in the history of the league you just hate to see it you hate to have to throw these stats out Here's another one the Cowboys have 117 points this year You hate to have to throw these stats out. Here's another one. The Cowboys have 117 points this year

Brandon Aubrey has 60 mm. He has more than half of their points. Mm. Here's another Here's another interesting one. We should just say Dak's ass after every one of these that in 2010 He's not paid that much. No, like you expect much. No, that's true in 2010 Wade Phillips got fired after he lost a Green Bay by 38 points It was 45 to 7 and the Cowboys just lost at home by 38 points now Jerry Dakas ass Jerry Jones says that he's not considering it. He told the press several times He's not considering firing Mike McCarthy after this game. He hasn't even thought about it the Him saying he's not considering means he's considered it Well, you have to come up with that's you have to use your brain to say the words

I'm not considering it which would make it you're considering the thought of it, but you didn't you don't let me finish He said twice. I'm not considering it and then he said so we're clear I'm not considering it. Ah But he has considered considered at least three times. I'll think about it. I want to I want to I want to patent the phrase think about it. Because when you tell someone to think about it, the first thing they do is think about they got to think about it. Yeah, you own them mentally. So it was his 82nd birthday. And he said afterwards, I think the

worst part was just the feeling of the team having fun at our expense. Detroit having fun at our expense. Yeah. So well, one last thing. I wonder, Dak is obviously not- Well, he's ass. He's ass, but he's not, you could do worse than Dak, but he's had some big time games where he's been ass. And he had another one of those weird, like not on the same page of CD-LAM jump balls in the corner of the end zone like, not on the same page as CD Lamb jump balls in the corner of the end zone that kind of started the whole jump balls.

Like he that's the thing though is he it's like his numbers were bad today. But remember in the Packers game when everyone's like, oh, well, the playoff game. Oh, well, his numbers weren't so bad. He put them in a hole that basically they weren't able to get out of the horrible. The Cowboys defense is bad. The Cowboys defense got absolutely torch today. But and you pay Dak to, to stay in these type of games. Yeah.

Big time plays. He hasn't been doing it. I think it is valid to say that their defense is dealing with a lot of significant injuries. Like their defense shouldn't be as bad as it is right now. They were on quit watch. If they had their starts, they quit today. Yeah. They were on quit watch. Everyone was standing. There was one run. I think it was Jameer Gibbs

in the third quarter because this was the longest game ever where everyone was standing upright and no one was trying to tackle them and the lions. So yeah, the, they were having fun. Ben Johnson was emptying the clip on them. They had three different plays. None of them actually ended up working. One of them was called back for penalty. Three different plays where a lineman was targeted for a pass. They even had Dan Skipper line up as an actual wide receiver, which was awesome. That Dan Skipper report is eligible on the first offensive play of the game. Yeah. And that was a big fuck you. Yeah. They had, they, they tried to throw a touchdown pass to Peney Sewell. That one was called back, but it was, they were doing all kinds of things.

They were scoring touchdowns when they're already up 40 or whatever it was 35. Um, the lions are offensively so fucking good. And Jared Goff has basically played perfect football in the last two games. He is last two games, 36 or 43, 601 yards, five touchdowns, zero interceptions, passer ratings of 155.8 and 153.8. This is the first time since 1962, the Lions have 40 points in consecutive games. Yeah, they're the best.

I think they're the best roster in the NFC by far. Offensively. Offensively. Because obviously Aiden Hutchinson getting hurt was a big part of this game, which sucks immensely. That was bad. It, it looked like it was, uh, it looked in real time like it was a compound fracture. I don't think that it was.

I think he snapped his tibia. They did like emergency surgery. He's out for the year, which sucks because he was probably, he was on track to be defensive player of the year and he's having that kind of an impact. And he felt he can't replace him. Yeah. He's like the heart and soul of their defense. He's the motor behind it all so that was like

One part you're watching this game and the Lions uniforms by the way pops so much. I know they changed them Well, I didn't know until I asked our Lions fan Matt Henkel. I was like are these brighter? He's like, yeah, we changed them I missed that they look awesome. Yeah, especially when the the Cowboys are wearing they're like very drab blue at home Yeah, the blue of the Lions just shits on it. Did you guys see this one? Did you hear about this one? The Cowboys logo someone someone sent me this meme It's actually It's a rating One oh, oh no one star out of five, you know, who else made people wear one star. Yeah, I do

Jerry Jones Jerry Jones Jerry Jones said but yeah, also the Sun in the stadium that Jerry Jones designed is so funny It's ridiculous Jerry Jones designed basically just a huge monument to himself in the middle of Arlington, Texas And he didn't stop to think like what time do we play football games? Where's the sun when we play football games? Yeah, it's going to be directly in people's faces. Yeah, yeah. Directly in people's faces. I saw someone said to him they have events there like concerts that aren't football. They have curtains, curtains. Yeah. Why wouldn't you do that? The pictures look sick. Well, he wants God to watch the Cowboys. That was old. The old stadium old stadium yeah the opening there ah it sucks really bad though for the Lions with Aiden Hutchinson I fun trade that

I don't think is even possible but would be awesome why don't they trade for Max Crosby yeah the Raiders are gonna be the Raiders are bad we'll get to the Raiders there they're son reddick son reddick man you have a Max Crosby has ties to the area. You always have to think about that Like it's it's Aiden Hudson going down is obviously Devastating for the Lions defense and fans as good as this game was you're walking away being like damn what just happened Eastern Michigan Max Crosby coming back to Detroit area.

But I guess the only silver lining is it happened before the trade deadline, so maybe you can figure out a way to do something, because you are a Super Bowl ready team right this second. Yeah, you can't replace him. He's so good, he's playing at such a high level, you're not gonna find anybody out there that is going to replace Aiden Hutchinson.

I mean, Max Crosby's probably about as close as you can get. He's elite at what he does. I still think that the Lions are good enough to still, we can still say I think they have the best roster in the NFC. Yeah, I think their defense is going to be, their defense is going to be strong. That is the heart and soul of their defense. And they were a little thin on the defensive line anyway. Their offense is just so loaded and Tim Patrick has basically just become Josh Reynolds, which is funny because Tim Patrick was on the Broncos and now Josh Reynolds on the Broncos. But he, we going into the season, we're like, do Lions have all these

weapons? Everything should work. They don't have that, that, that third receiver that should be able to get some of these yards for him and Tim Patrick looks like that Guy for ya Jameson is never gonna be that guy. That's like a possession receiver He's starting to run around. Yeah, although if you've seen him the last few weeks. Yes, he has learned how to turn Yes, which is important. And so he is doing a couple comebacks They're using them in different ways besides just like an end around a reverse or just a deep shot They are mixing it up a little bit. Yeah, they had him on like a slant for about 10 yards today. It was like, Ooh, that's interesting. Slowly introducing him to turning. That's what they did with DK. It worked out pretty well for

him so far. But yeah, the lines on offense today, the, the, the shit that they were doing, it was like part trolling, but I think it's like Dan Campbell, he tells Ben Johnson what plays he wants to see, like what guys he wants to see featured. Like he is mapping his entire offensive game plan around who he wants to give the game ball to in an emotional ceremony afterwards. Well, the crazy thing about today and how good the Lions are is they had six guys go for 50 plus yards, a line of scrimmage and Amon Ra wasn't one of them. Yeah. That's how great, that's how talented they are.

Yeah, it's nuts. And that the play to Peney Sewell. This is what we said. I think we said that last Wednesday after Travis Kelsey did his rugby shit in the Monday Night Football game. The next iteration is going to be doing that play, but hitting alignment that's running downhill. Yeah, that's what they tried to do with Peney Sewell, who by the way, looked like a running back when he got it. Tucked the ball, dove for the goal line. That firmly stands as one of those plays that's like, it was so cool. Pick the fucking flag.

Yeah, pick the flag up. Pick the flag up. You deprived us of a football moment. Yeah. Referees. And the flea flicker to Laporta. The flea flicker was sick. Yeah. Yeah, it just, yeah, the Lions are a juggernaut on offense.

They're very fun to watch. Also it was nice seeing Cooper Rush is still around getting in for whatever the opposite of a victory cigar is. Yeah, Cooper Rush and Henning Hooker. Yeah. Yeah. It was the end of this game. Henning Hooker got in at the end. And I realized when I saw Cooper Rush out there, Jerry Jones has a thing for ginger backup quarterbacks. Yep. He's got Brandon. He had Brandon Whedon. He had Andy Dalton. Andy Dalton, Cooper Rush, and Jason Garrett. The man just like, he looks at a redheaded football player, he's like, that's like that's my backup quarterback. Yeah such a shame they lost since 82nd

birthday. I know. And in this way they're not a good football team. No I don't. 167 points is what they've allowed at home in the last four games. It's crazy I don't know what maybe it's I mean they don't have depth they have a lot of injuries they pay a lot of they put pay a lot of top-end guys but yeah they're just not a good football team no it's such a shame I hate to hate every second hate to see it hate to see it is that imagine like being well I guess you can't really say imagine being Jerry Jones for a million different reasons. But imagine being Jerry Jones, you buy the Cowboys. We talked to skip about this

on Friday. You buy the Cowboys first five years that you buy the Cowboys, you win a Super Bowl, then you win two more. Never again. Yeah. That's what he's facing right now. Because after the first five years, you think that it was you. And you think that it's going to happen all the time. Because you ran Jimmymy johnson off after he won a Super Bowl and then you go back and you win another super Barry Switzer. Yeah, very Switzer. You think that it's you you think that that you're you're a system owner you can plug and play anybody. Imagine telling Jerry Jones in 1995 you hey buddy you've you've won your last Super Bowl. I actually think he would be himself. Yeah. Yeah, he would you block everyone on Twitter. Mm-hmm to lead all his apps

except Raya All right. That was yeah lions lions are juggernaut lions are juggernaut. How are you feeling about the Cowboys sucking max? You love it. Yeah, it's the best I love when Dak just has these games where he just looks horrible. He's some days he looks some games He looks looks pretty good and then there's games like this where it's just like holy shit. It's what's so weird about Dak is he does have games where he looks like one of the best quarterbacks in the league. And then he just looks like shit ass. You can set your watch to it. Is that Eddie? Yeah, Eddie's on TV right now.

Wait, no that's not him right there. Oh it's not? I thought that was Eddie. Definitely not Eddie right there. Oh, okay. What? I just him right there. Oh, it's not I thought that was Eddie definitely not Eddie right there Oh, okay. What I? Just caught him at the corner my eye, and I thought that was that Eddie does do TV on oh wait. We talked about there. Yeah. Oh, we thought you're talking about there I was talking about Dave Wansett. No, I know no the guy with Dave. Oh, no Yes, there. He's having a good time. Yeah, he's doing Fox, Chicago. Yeah, I was like if that's not Eddie

Yeah, Eddie's been doing for people who don't know Eddie's our co-worker He's doing he I think he does the Monday mornings. I used to do like 10 12 years ago That was brutal because I'd get hammered watching the Bears and then I would wake up It's 5 in the morning and go do five minutes on Fox Chicago at 6 a.m. Yes, and it was I'd put on a sweater and I'd look so fat and stupid. Yeah, and I just like I don't know And he's looking good. Yeah, and he looks good in this. Yeah, he's on he's on Fox Chicago Where we oh, we're just talking about how Dak is ass. Thank you, Zach

Hank Belchuk his ass. Tak his ass. Hank bell. Chuck bell. Chuck's gonna fix it. Yeah. Max, are you? Cause you really hate the cowboys. Of course. Yeah. Yeah. So this has got to feel good. Yeah. No, it was every time like the Cowboys have one of these games. It's just funny to just laugh at them. And they're just like, Oh, this team fucking stinks. But like obviously no, but Michael Parsons defense is gonna look worse so yeah But they've had three of these games this year. I know and they've all happened at home. You know Me though Hank was there. Yeah, that was the fourth. Yeah, all right, right?

That was a playoffs right as a fellow Cowboys hater max. Does it were you at all that? In a season like this the Cowboys defense playing this poorly the team not looking good Dak looking like ass We're we're gonna be deprived of having Cowboys fans think to themselves like this is our year our team's awesome And then having them shit to bend the playoffs No I want I want pain all the time always because they'll still get themselves up each each week that like We're the Cowboys. We're the better team. We're gonna win this game. We're supposed to be the Cowboys Yeah, yeah, so I don't worry about that

and Hank was there four games ago yeah he was he put his stink on it was a great time they have not won a game since so so the lighthouse yeah Hank touching the lighthouse so what's what's the memes can we get the full stats tomorrow maybe in an image Hank's teams Hank's. He since going to the Cowboys, their own Ford home since being the keeper of the lighthouse, they haven't won a game at home. And then the picture of the graphics should be me and Missoula. No, no, no, no, no. You don't make football show. I know you don't like football. I don't know if you know this, but you don't know we've got 40 piece by Iowa. Well, Washington Huskies.

Uber eats. Okay, last three games chargers 23 Broncos 16 Jim Harbaugh has an arrhythmia of his heart and thankfully he's okay So Harbaugh himself said after he's 2-0 in arrhythmia. Yeah, 2-0 and he said I'm medically qualified to talk about it Yeah, he said he also I just loved the Jim Harbaugh like it was weird because we obviously saw the reports Then John Harbaugh left his press conference early. So like shit something really wrong. I he saw the reports then John Harbaugh left his press conference early so like shit something really wrong I Just love the fact that Jim Harbaugh went to the the blue tent before going into the locker Yeah, he's a player. He's a player. He's gotta get checked out by the guys Yeah, and so I also love the fact that he's keeping track of his record in arrhythmia games

Yeah, to know what I'm not the first time he's beaten a fib It's if you talk to the NCAA it's been a little bit dicey recently, but he's come out on top every single time. Yep. Now it is, it's in a sick way. It's, it's funny that now the chargers have their coach that's also listed on the injury report. Yes. Because it's very chargers. Yeah. The way that their franchise has gone recently. But today was a good day for the chargers. Yeah. Good day. At least a good first half. Justin Herbert back looks, I mean, he mean he hasn't missed any games but he didn't look like he was hampered by the ankle like he was last. We saw him against the Chiefs started really fast. Also helps. Bo Nicks was so bad in the first half. He

was three for 10 22 yards oneception, 0.0 passing rating. Yeah. And I also, like there was a bunch of injuries. Did Rashawn Slater go down again? I think he might've gotten banged up again. He might've come back in. I know Patrick Shartan went out for the game. He got a concussion the first half.

Which that's a big loss for the Broncos defense. Yeah. Because he's probably the best corner in the league. But it, Bo Nicks kind of put him in a hole that they didn't get out of and the Chargers stepped on them. Yeah they put him away. Yeah. But the Broncos look they look better in the second half. I can't figure out the Broncos week to week. I think they're the most confusing team in the NFL. I think Bo Knicks just does like half good half bad every week. He's Nixie-phrenic. Yeah he just can't it's

just if it's the first half and the defense is firing you're gonna win the game if it's second half You you might be in a hole that you can't get out of it's crazy cuz they beat the Bucks They beat the Bucks in Tampa, right? They I don't know if the Bucks are I Don't have the Bucks rated that high. I think the Bucks are pretty good. I think they're good I know I wouldn't say they're like I wouldn't say I'm not like, oh, they beat the box like that. Like they beat the Chiefs or they beat the Lions or they beat the Ravens. I would say they're they're just below like, yeah,

they're below lions, whatever that tier is the second best tier in the NFC. That's where the bucks reside. I think even though the bucks beat the lions, they're below that tier. You think they're below that tier? Yeah, if you did tears in the NFC Yeah, Lions and Vikings. Yep Packers are in the next year. Mm-hmm commanders might be and 49ers I think the Bucks are below that But they beat the Lions. I yeah, I think they're I think they're right below that but I'm not saying the Bucks are bad

I just don't I don't think the button imagine imagine that Stephen Shea did not exist I was just about what would you say about I would have the same feeling about the Bucs I think they're the second best team in the NFC South. I think the Falcons are better. No, they're not They beat him. I don't think they're better. Well, they they literally play they played a game and they beat him Would you said the Niners are better than the Cardinals? The Niners are better than the card guys? The Niners are better than the Cardinals. The Niners are better than the Bucs too. But they played a game.

Yeah, but the Niners also have a better record. Cardinals beat them. The Niners have a better record than the Cardinals. It's just like- The Falcons have a better record and they beat them. I think that the Bucs or whatever that's saying, regardless- I wouldn't say the Broncos beat the Bucs. The Broncos having a road win in Tampa Bay, rookie quarterback against Todd Bowles and

doing all the weird blitzes and shit. That is a pretty impressive win. So the Broncos are, they're capable of pulling these wins out of their asses against good teams. Their defense is good. Their defense is very good, but they also scored a shitload of points against the Bucs. Yeah, but their defense is very good. I just can't figure out the Broncos.

I don't know, Bo Nicks. I've seen a lot of Bo Nicks. I just can't figure out the Broncos. I don't know. Bo Nicks. I've seen a lot of Bo Nicks. I've watched a lot of Bo Nicks football. Yeah. I mean, he's been, we've watched Bo Nicks on Saturdays since basically the start of part of my take. Yeah.

He's been like a constant. But he's still fun to watch. I still stand by that take. Bo Nicks is, he's a lecher. He's erratic. He makes mistakes and successes going 100 miles an hour. Yeah. I guess any given Sunday. So

who knows what the box? I mean that that was a game that the box Broncos game was a game that the bucks came out very flat any given Sunday. Yeah. This game, the Broncos came out flat and the Chargers were the better team. It's because the jerseys, the jerseys were an issue for the Broncos. That was a mistake compared to last week where they were the best uniform in the world. And then they come out wearing these like muted oranges and blues. It sucked. Let me ask you a question. You think the Chargers are better than the Broncos? I do. So like I, I think the Broncos are like a frisky team that is probably not a playoff team. I think maybe in the, they're probably the third best team in their division. They are the third. I think the Chargers,

they are certainly like riddled with injuries and they don't always have like their most talented guys on the field. But I think that they're a more consistent football team. Also, it's a rookie quarterback, which I'm like Bro, Ponex deserves he had a bad first half. He played well in the second. That's what I'm saying about the Broncos. I'm not saying the Broncos are good. I'm not saying that at all. In fact, I'm saying I can't figure them out. Yeah, I don't know what the Broncos are. I think they're exactly like a 500 type team. They're like crazy inconsistent. And when they're bad, they can look like one of the worst teams in the NFL. Yeah. And then when they're at their best, it's like, Holy shit, this team is feisty. And I do think the chargers are

good. I think the chargers were really banged up when they lost to the Steelers and the Chiefs. And now that they had a bye week and got healthier, I think the chargers were really banged up when they lost to the Steelers and the Chiefs and now that they had a bye week And and got healthier. I think the Chargers I would feel more confident being like the Chargers will be a team That's in the playoffs in the Broncos So I have a question for you big cat about our good friend Jim Harbaugh. Yeah now that he knows that he's 2-0 and arrhythmia games He's not gonna try to give himself the Arrhythmia is before games, right? I don't think so. I think it's a pretty serious medical thing he had a he had a procedure in 2012 that fixed it so he can do that again okay my my doctor who's just he's not my doctor but he

tells me stuff dr. Dan who once put ronan a cast even though he never broken arm for something we did on the axe he dr. Dan said that he had a procedure he can do it again or he can go on medicine. So he had like an ablation done? Were they like shocked some of the... I'm gonna pull up Dr. Dan because he actually gave me the full breakdown that was very, very much needed. Too long didn't read. Harbaugh most likely has a random heart palpitations, rapid heartbeat which he's had in the past. He might need to get a minor procedure and miss a day of practice or go on medic he won't miss practice or go on medication for it but since he came back on the sideline it's unlikely it was ever a dangerous or life-threatening situation yeah so that's good to know to know that's why i'm concerned

if they got to the super bowl he would maybe think about yeah if it happens like if this was a he if it was a playoff game and he had the arrhythmia beforehand he'd be like you know what let's just ride this out. Yeah. All right. So so let's play this game Broncos at St. Oh yeah. This is the Thursday night game Broncos Saints whose line is it anyway. So there's Sean Payton on the graphic for this one. Kevin James., did you get your phone back? So that lasted a while. Wait, it's Broncos at Saints. Broncos at Saints. I'm gonna say Saints. Minus two? Saints minus three. I would take the Broncos if I could be guaranteed Patrick Chetan was playing. What did you say? Oh, we know Hank. You got it. Sorry. Sorry to draft kings It is Saints plus one. Oh, oh

I think we got to hammer the same thing. I think Saints I guess. Yeah, that makes sense. Then it's really good defense. Great. Rokey head coach Or I mean rookie quarterback. I guess you can make the same argument for the Saints. Although the Saints did not look good defensively. You can say the really good head coach part. Yeah, yeah that too. Um Yeah, it feels like maybe the Broncos win this game to keep us off the keep it off the scent Yeah, keep us off the side. What would you expect the Broncos to do in this game? I I'll tell you right now they're gonna beat the Saints and then the loose to the Panthers if we're gonna go I'll tell you right now they're gonna beat the Saints and then the loose to the Panthers if we're gonna go on On this. Yep. Yeah, I could see that and then somehow maybe beat the Raven Sean Payton is gonna break out all that you know the weird shit that he pulls out every now and again where he has like a Kick return or lie down in the end zone to try to blend into the letters. Yeah, so they can't see him when he's returning it

Yeah, there's gonna be yeah Sean Payton is gonna empty the bag and I Bonix could end up being good because I do think Sean Payton is good at coaching quarterbacks. I just, this game, like the first half, Bo Nicks put them in a hole that they couldn't get out of. And that was, that was kind of it. Cause they kind of, they made it interesting at the end. It was very interesting. Yeah. They were double on sidekick. Yeah. So I don't know. Broncos. I still think their defense is elite, especially if Patrick Chetan comes back All right next game Falcons 38 Panthers 20

I Got a question Why don't the Panthers just put Bryce Young back in? Yeah at the end of the game when it was it was pretty far out of hand I thought the same thing there was just kind of driving for no real particular reason hand. I thought the same thing. They were just kind of driving for no real particular reason. Like Andy Dalton is the offense isn't really the problem with the Panthers. It was when Bryce Young, I get that their defense is so bad that I don't really know who can play quarterback that would be able to have them win games. They're not going to win games. Why wouldn't you just have

Bryce Young and see if maybe he can get somehow better? I know that it's probably, you know, you're, you're, you're wishing on a lottery ticket, but what's the point in not playing him when you're not going to do anything this year? I have a theory. I think that the Panthers might be holding out hope that they can get something for him at the trade deadline. And I don't know what it would be in my mind, since I've gone so long without watching Bryce Young play. I don't think he's as shitty as I did in his last game.

Yeah, like he's gotten better in my dumb brain over the last couple weeks because I haven't seen him play. I think the Panthers are hoping that other GMs around the league forget how bad Bryce Young was. And then they're willing to give up I don't know, like a fifth round pick for him. Yeah. Did you see the clip of Andy Dalton teaching Bryce Young how to do fist pumps? No, I didn't see that.

That was very cute. It was showing him how to like, you know, go up, you go like this. I saw them joking around a little bit on the sidelines. Yeah, they were frisky in this game in the first half. Bryce was smiling. Yeah. I don't think I've seen Bryce Young smile in the NFL before. I just don't understand like you're, it's not a Colts situation where the Colts

could conceivably go to the playoffs with Joe Flacco. The Panthers are not going to go to the playoffs with Andy Dalton. Right. Like that's not a knock on Andy Dalton. He, he played okay today and their offense did okay. Their defense is just so, so bad. So why wouldn't you just have Bryce Young play if you're, you're probably going to get rid of him anyway. Like the gambler in me would be like, what if one in a hundred chance he just something clicks and he's good? I think what they got to do is put them in for like a special, special design trick play that you know is going to work. Get his confidence, get one good play and then take them out again.

Yeah. Be like Bryce, we're, we're now in the business of hearing offers for bryce young Yeah, I don't think that there's any real they're not going to bring them back in To try to just like win football games. I don't think I think that they're going to why but you're not going to win football games without them, right? Well, this was like the whole argument for should you bench bryce young to begin with right? Which I I kind of understood to begin with just because it was weak whatever Three and your own two and you hey Maybe Andy Dalton is so good that you start winning games and they won the first game that Andy Dalton played now

It's week six your one in five You're not gonna do anything this year. You're further down along the line put them back in I think they might be they might be taking calls. Yeah, the Falcons by the way are the second seed right now if the playoffs started today. The Falcons are, they got a lot of weapons. I think the Falcons are good. I don't know, I mean their pass rush still doesn't get sacks.

They should have beat the Chiefs. They should have beat the Chiefs, but then you could also do the argument that they should have lost to the Eagles. And maybe the Bucs Yeah, maybe the Saints. I guess the one thing good thing about the Falcons today is they played a game that wasn't a heart attack Yeah, it was good for them. Also the the drum got broken again Oh, no, and I think now that brings the Panthers to own three in games when the drum gets broken. They keep pounding drum

Oh, no, yeah, the Saints offense two good running backs Falcons. Yeah, sorry Falcons offense two great running backs Drake London is a beast. Yep Kyle Pitts is getting the ball sometimes sometimes. So that's good. I'm down. It's nice. It's nice to see that D Not DJ Moore. What's it Mooney? Yeah, Mooney looks good. He looks better than he has Ray Ray. They're doing everything Yeah, I do like the and Kirk looks better like it feels like every week Kirk cousins looks like he can I don't know if it's Put more pressure on that foot or just move quicker off that foot. He looks healthy this was a game to where I Felt like the Falcons could easily lose this game if they were the old Falcons just because that would make sense like a

Thursday night thriller come back they beat the Bucks and what happened They just lost in the first half it kind of I think they were down seven nothing in this game And it was it was within one score in the first half all the way to like the third quarter But yeah, they took care of business so good for the Falcons. They took care of business. They ran the ball Well, they scored I think more points today than they ever did in the previous regimes era. So their offenses, I mean, the Panthers can do that. You're going to love playing the Panthers, by the way. It's so much fun.

I can't wait. It is. And I did see one person say to me on Friday, they're like, can you just please be a little nicer about the Panthers? Because it's so bad. Yeah. I think we've been pretty nice though. Like we've, we've, yeah, I don't know what to say. We've sympathized with, with Panthers fan

owner, knowing just what a shithole you're in right now. It's not your fault. It's definitely not your fault. You have your first round pick this year. Yeah. That's huge. First round your second, but you still have your first round pick and things can get better. Things can get NFL teams go from, from worst to first all the time all the time And listen, I was stuck in a hellhole with an owner that I thought I would die before he died Yeah, things can change things can change things can get better All right last game Steelers 20 or 32 Raiders 13 Steelers defense back after kind of getting run on by the Cowboys in that game. They played an indie two weeks ago

But they were all over the place three turnovers block punt TJ Watts a monster the punches today punches were incredible Najee Harris was running harder than I think I've ever seen him run. There's a white socks It was the white socks. He that was the first touchdown by running back for the Steelers this year. Was it really? Yeah, that's wild crazy. It was a long one, too. Yeah, he had 106 yards, but he Yeah, the Steelers I it's just Mike Tomlin just needs to be in a spot where Like there's adversity. He can never get he could never get too far the 3-0 start for the Steelers Mike Tomlin was not comfortable. So he's 5 and 2 now against the spread when he's a road favorite over the last four seasons. That's good to know. Good for Mike. Russell Wilson looked like he was he

thought that his number was gonna get called at any given snap. I thought his number was gonna get called maybe that was cuz Jerry kept on yelling to us that it's time. This time he had his helmet on for the entire game. He was ready to go like he had been told hey Ross You're in go get it Justin Fields did enough with his feet and Najee heiress like he said was was running the ball and they had some short fields and the Raiders It's bad. It's bad. It's bad. I've got an interesting stat here for Mark Davis coaches. Yeah, so The coaches that have been hired by Mark Davis, non interim coaches, okay, 64 and 102. That's a 38% win rate. interim coaches are 17 and 18. So basically 500. But

that's still a lot better. That's a lot better. Raiders need to have just an ongoing cast of interim head coaches. If you win, you stick around around and then when you lose We'll just hire another interim coach. Yes, so we've made the Connection before the chiefs of the new Patriots and we've talked about all the different ways thief of joy Patch from our homes doesn't really matter how they look in the regular season They won a Super Bowl last year where they didn't look good in the regular season We got another one that we're gonna throw in there for the Chiefs being the new Patriots. This is

the theory that's going around when the Patriots were really running. Well, it was always something would happen and they'd be like Belichick again, even if he had nothing to do with it. You know, the way his coaches would go and suck somewhere else. He would send them to sabotage other Belichick did it again. Yeah Yeah right. The new theory is that the Chiefs did it again because if they don't lose that Christmas day game to the Raiders Antonio Pierce probably doesn't get hired. Yeah. So they basically got Antonio Pierce hired and now the Raiders are in this spot. I kind of like it where it's like they're the boogeyman whatever you could just spin any bad thing that happens the Chiefs is

actually that was them playing the long game. Galaxy brain shit. Yeah Andy Reader's playing seven dimensional chess. He's like if I lose this game they will have to hire Antonio Pierce and the Raiders will still be bad. Yeah or if the Chiefs don't lose that game who knows if they win the Super Bowl true who knows if that if they are Just like complacent going to the playoffs Yeah, it's it's tough for Raiders fans because not only do you have a team that's no fun at all to watch You probably have the least interesting quarterback controversy in the NFL. Yeah, and I don't know what you do about it I don't you said Devante Adams likes AOC. Yeah

Do you know why I don't know why I just heard that did you see anything today where you're like yeah I could see it nope if the Raiders had Devante out there this is different game nope do you want to play a fun game called let's find the next Raiders win yeah okay by the way the for the for the first part of the season I think we all could agree that the Patriots beating the Bengals week one was gonna be like though what What the fuck happened in that game? It's definitely the Raiders beating the Ravens. Yeah That's the game where we're gonna look back because the Ravens are gonna be go

Probably the AFC championship game and the Raiders are probably gonna win like three games four games and one of them is gonna be at the Ravens Well, it is kind of nice if you're playing the Ravens you get to say like you're never out of it Because remember the Raiders beat him. Yeah, it's true playing the Ravens you get to say like you're never out of it because remember the Raiders beat him yeah it's true all right at the Rams next week Rams off a bye getting healthier yeah Rams then they play the Chiefs at home and they do play well against the Chiefs I don't yeah well but that was because Andy Reed threw that game yeah he's Antonio Pierce already got a job that's not he won't lose to the reason but if you need to keep up

No, but if if they beat the Chiefs then Antonio Pierce will have more job security That's the next time they play okay later on in the season agreed at the Bengals No at the Dolphins with two back. Yeah, I think they can win that game. Maybe that's it to me That's if it's a bad weather game. That's a uniform matchup Yeah, you got the candy asses and you got the old-school Raiders Broncos at home. I think they could beat the Broncos could and then at the Chiefs at the Bucks and Falcons It's gonna be tough. This is not it doesn't feel like the Raiders are gonna make any noise. Not a great schedule

Yeah, doesn't feel like they're gonna make a lot of noise Are gonna make any noise not a great schedule. Yeah doesn't feel like they're gonna make a lot of noise Free max cross me he likes AOC. I don't know. Maybe that was just a rumor I heard from the walls the walls do talk around here, but Antonio Pierce He's just he's reached that point as a head coach where he's just trying anything different Yeah, like he knows what I just saw doesn't look good Let me see if I can change something even put in a worse player and maybe somehow we'll get better Yeah, just change up the look. Can we lose in a different way this week? Yeah, he's basically He's basically just rearranging his living room. He's yeah, it's still his living room the deck chairs on the Titanic

Yeah, he's he's like, oh, I'll put the couch over here. Maybe give me a different look at the TV Oh shit, maybe still losing the band played a better song this iceberg would go away. Yeah All right last game Sunday Night Football Bengals with a must-win win and They needed that game their defense showed up Giants only scored seven points that was big and their offense It was crazy because you'd think the offense has been so lights out kind of struggled but Joe burrow made the big plays when he had to that touchdown run was awesome

chase Brown they also got a little lucky at the end chase Brown fumbled out of bounds I saw that yeah and then scored a 30 yard touchdown to ice the game away but yeah that was like a hard-fought game that the Giants the Giants are frisky Dexter Lawrence is a fucking Monster. Yeah, they're I feel like he's sacked Joe burrow like a hundred times. Their defensive line is good. That's not like a fluke. They've got We have tibet was out today, right? Yep, but he's probably gonna be coming back in the next week or two Yeah, the defensive line is very very good on the Giants and when they get Malik neighbors back, that's gonna be big, too Yeah

And and credit to the Bengals defensive line because they they finally showed up to Trey Henderson played Well, BJ Hill played well, like that's what they've been missing is their defensive line has been bad injured But also bad and now the Bengals I mean we we still believe in the Bengals Two and four what's their next must win? I mean next week is I think all of them Yeah, they they kind of all are but this one was a real must win because it's like you're better than the Giants Even though the Giants aren't the worst team So wait, is that is that oh they play at Cleveland? Oh, there you go. There you go. That's a good That's a good one. So is that is that same Lamar Jackson stat about beating NFC teams?

Is that what we're looking at with Daniel Jones being one in 14 now in primetime games? Yeah. Whereas one win is against Lamar Jackson. No, that was, that was a, that was the afternoon game. I remember it cause the Ravens were off. All right. So yeah, but Daniel Jones is, is one in 14 in primetime. Yeah. Not great. Something to think about. Not great. But again, I say Brian Dable looks great.

He does. He's got the glasses on now He's been doing Pilates. He looks smart. He's definitely not been doing ozempic. It's Pilates That Joe burrow run was crazy. I want to see the all 22. There was no one on that side of the field He's fast. He's like fucking I'm out of here. I'm gone good for the Bengals Yeah, Bengals needed that win bad and now I'm not I am NOT writing off the Bengals. I there was a guy who I shouldn't even been looking at it put a guy on Twitter said tomorrow on PMT big cat hates on the Bengals once again Which I don't think we've ever I think we're pretty pro Bengals

I think I've been more pro Bengals than you but that's also partly I said Joe burrow MVP two weeks ago but I think that's also partly in the back of my head so I can convince myself that money in a football game yeah more because we beat a good bang I literally was the one who's saying Joe burrow MVP he's playing incredible but then I saw his other treat was Mike Trico and and Chris Collins worth have a mouthful of come over the Giants so that guy's just doing well. He's doing real well He's he's dealing with this that's the only guy in America that's like enough with the Giants glazing We get it you guys love the Giants I like to do that sometimes when I see like a rogue tweet like coming at us for one of our opinions

Just go check out what else they're saying. Yeah, you're like, alright that makes sense I my favorite is when somebody's talking shit and I look at their recent replies and they're replying to porn stars Yeah, that's that's the best. Yeah, they're like, uh, yeah, show me your feet. Show me your feet Hey PFT and big cat you guys are fucking idiots. Show me your tits. Hey, hey Like that shit hey midget and then the next tweet is like a reply to Rochelle Ryan being like Come to Sheboygan. Yeah. Hey, I'm your biggest fan. Yeah, would you ever go on a date with a fan? Yeah Ever go on a date with a fan? Yeah, I believe in the Bengals still just to the record. So Pope Jacob Just chill out man. Is that a real Pope? Yeah. He was, he was very upset about the

broadcast. All right. So the Bengals sit at two and four right now. Yeah. But they're playing the Browns, right? Yep. So let's say three and four. Yep. Then they play in the Eagles. I'm telling you. I think, I think the Bengals might, they might make the offs. I said it. I said the last week, I think there's a chance the Bengals are gonna next time they play the Ravens They'll be above 500 because then they play the Raiders like they'll this was a as As even though the offense did not look like it's looked the last three weeks where Joe burrow was just on fire This was the game that you needed from the Bengals where the defense showed that they still have life

That's what I've been saying is that Lou is gonna to figure it out. Yeah, he's going to figure something out. It did help their plan down Jones. And guess what? It helps their plan to Sean Watson next week. Figure it out. Yeah. Okay. I have so that was that was all the games. I have a row back question rhoback.com promo code take 20% off your first purchase qzips Polos hoodies joggers shorts Roback comm promo code take Mets Dodgers game one memes the gods Just flush it move on game twos must win. Yeah. Oh must win with what did happen? They just got absolutely smoked. What was the score nine Dod. Dodgers? Nine, nothing. Nine, nothing. While we were taping Mookie Betts.

Yeah. Drove in three more. What would you say to somebody who hypothetically said that the magic has run out for the Mets? If there was somebody like that in your life, that was close to you, physically close to you. I would say it's a long series. And that hypothetical person blew their load too early last time as well hmm. Oh

But it did feel like there were some plays. What was it who who got thrown out a third Jesse Winker? Yeah, that was like a Last week that would have worked. It's just one game. It's just one win game two and you in your head of schedule Yeah, and then I'm an eye on the two and you're ahead of schedule. Yeah. You got Manaya on the bump. You got three at home. You got three at home. The Dodgers though, they're like the anti-Philes.

They have guys that will get big hits. Everyone says that about the Dodgers in the playoffs. Well, I'm just saying, so far they've gotten guys that have gotten big hits this year. Have they not? Yeah. I mean, but it's the Dodgers in the playoffs. Well, I'm just saying they've so far they've gotten guys that have gotten big hits this year. Have they not? Yeah, I mean it's but it's the Dodgers. Okay. Oh, the Dodgers are historically good in the playoff. No, I know but they're getting this year they're getting big hits. They have won a World Series more recently than the Phillies have. That's true. COVID. That is a good point. But oh so baseball counts but not but not One was a bubble one was self-contained in a bubble.

Hold on. Hold on. You're you. Now you're right. They have let Magic Johnson down there for the trophy ceremony without a mask. Max. I don't care. Max. Question. You're right. You got me on that. The Dodgers have been chokers in the playoffs. They have show. Hey now. Yeah. This is first playoffs and he's been pretty good in these playoffs. He's been okay. I mean he's been he's been pretty good. He's he went to be on ice. Yeah. You can be on by. I am. This is this is being unbiased, but I just wanted the The Dodgers lineup is scarier than the Phillies

On Paper yes, total lineup and also yeah that Going going into that Phillies Mets series. We can't win the manager Hands in the lineup. What does he usually write on paper? The manager hands in the lineup. What does he usually write on paper? Yeah, I mean you guys have say Max was better on paper and like every show what's your endgame here though Is your endgame you're rooting against don't you want the Mets to lose? Rooting against the Dodgers because he wants the Mets to lose in the world No, I just you you started talking shit, and I wanted to you know I'm not talking shit I'm just saying the Dodgers like Shohei is a game changer. So is Bryce Harper

Okay, that's Harper's out of the playoffs correct, but he was talking shit But Mac Max you want I think I know what you're saying you want the Dodgers to lose So that the Mets can make it to the World Series and have an even more heartbreaking loss. No I did say that going into this game and I watched the game and I was like I can't have Mets fans, I want Mets fans to cry. Right now? I was watching all of the clips of that cave being so happy.

Ugh, they were fighting with each other, it was the best. That's gotta make you feel good. There was one part where you could going to bring your friend back. You could just hear the excuse me. It's not going to bring your friend back. Who's my friend? He said we don't have to bring others down to build ourselves up. Oh, that that's that's exactly what you do. 100% you have to do that. Yeah, it's all you have left. Yeah, what sports fandom is That's why Hank is just rooting against every single team in this podcast. Yeah, he might be no No, he might no one wants no one wants the Bears and the commander

He might start rooting for the Mets just to stick it to you now, right I think so no I wanted I was rooting for the Phillies The Padres went outside though. The Dodgers just squashed them 24 scoreless innings And so the Tigers went outside to scubal that Grand Slam that was that was hurtful So the Guardians now play the Yankees game one. That's it's all all eyes on New York for Columbia yeah, Columbus day. It's it's the Mets then the Yankees Then the Jets in the bills pretty good day pretty crazy day also as well.

No, it was Phillies in the playoffs. It was last year.ies in the playoffs last year Yeah, it was last year now two years two years ago, and he got excited because I think they had a home run He stood up, and he said something wasn't careful with the lips and a big thing. Yeah, just spit all of them I think it was in this gambling cave. Yeah, I thought it was in the New York game. It was in New York That you know in Phillies maybe max you also. I mean you know this but last week was a perfect example the the curse of working in partial sports is When your team has epic heartbreak, it's actually like good for your career in a weird way. It's fucked up

Don't shake your head. Hang don't fucking shake your head. That does not apply to you. That does not apply to you But people love our sadness. So when we have like ultimate sadness, it's somehow does wonders for us I hate it. So it's so mad. You're the only one who can't say that making me so mad, right?

Oh my who's back the week is this league? Hmm? Yeah preseason ramping along I will say I've been I have been watching there's a lot of episodes so I'm not finished with it, but the

NBA starting five show on Netflix that's like their F1 you know version their drive to survive very very very very good it's Anthony Edwards Lebron Jimmy Butler Tatum and what's his face from the Kings? Dianne Fox? It's a bonus? It's a bonus and I've had to tell myself this because remind myself it is an uninterrupted What's his face from the Kings? D.O. Fox? Subbonus? Subbonus. And I've had to tell myself this, cause remind myself it is an uninterrupted production.

So it could be very biased, but I do find myself liking LeBron. In what way? Like he's just funny. He is a funny guy. Like he's just, it's just, he's funny. He's just a goof. He's just a big goof. But again, it's like, this is just the, he's funny. He's just a big goof.

But again, it's like, this is what they want you to think. But whatever. So excited for NBA to come back today. The Knicks played the Timberwolves in MSG right after first time they met since the Divicenzo trade. And I don't know. That's why I was checking my phone. I don't know how things went with the postgame pressers after but like it looked From tweets and stuff and in the video that were basically lip-syncing

So you don't know exactly what was said where even said so was basically talking shit back and forth with Tibbs As he was shooting a free throw being like this what happens When you let me run the team or when you run the team. Yeah they were just basically just like John in the middle of the game. Yeah and he did. Someone asked like they asked him who if he could hit a game winner over one of his former teammates who would you choose. And he just said as long as in front of Tibbs. Oh that's not. He said I can't finish though Tibbs. There's like, he also got into it with Jalen Brunson's dad Rick Brunson who works for the the Knicks. Did you see

that post game they had to be separated? No. Yeah. So I'm saying this league. Yeah, this league big time. So he said I was talking to Tibbs to Rick Brunson. Yeah. When he was saying that's what happens when they let you run the show. Yeah. But it feels like maybe he was talking to Rick Brunson. Yeah when he was saying that's what happens when they let you run the show Yeah, but it feels like maybe he was talking to Rick Brunson. Yeah, which is kind of awkward for Jalen who was like wow All right, go ahead play it He says I can't finish right tibs I can't oh I like that this league big time. So he says my relationship with Jalen that's my brother and my best friend That's a separate relationship weren't people saying that he was like the the last of the friends Like not as close no

Dante and Jalen Brunson were roommates in college Dante and Josh Hart didn't like each other got it Got it this league it. Okay. Got it. This league. Why'd they get rid of Dante? He, I think, I think he didn't like being looked at as the fourth guy. Yeah, as the fourth guy. He was gonna probably be off the bench again after being-

But is he gonna be, he might be off the bench in Minnesota too. Yeah, he might be. Yeah. Either way, this league. Good who's back. I had it written down job Hank 50 hockey's back. Yeah hockey's back in the Utah hockey club is good Yeah, what is it about hockey that makes the the new team so much better the draft did I think they changed the expansion draft? This year didn't they I know the Vegas one. They did what I always thought was crazy

Well, you can protect like two players basically Yes, they got flurry. Yeah, which is wild But yeah, it feels like expansion teams in the NHL are just they don't go through those same growing pains that that other sports Do but my other who's back is the US men's national team because on Saturday night During the college football madness. We we had our debut with our new coach we won dosa zero What who what we Panama? What was friendly friendly? But we went to two nil and then we got in Mexico and another friendly I think on Tuesday night and we look good. We dominated just in terms of time and possession everything

They had a couple counter-attacks, but overall I think he looks like a good coach so far. We're not playing our best players against Mexico. I think Pulisic is going to sit out because he wants to see what the what the bench looks like and give them more playing time. But I'm back. I'm back in on what do we what do we get if we win? No, it's a friendly you get friendship. You win friendship. Why are they doing it during football season? because they also play sports It's a different sport, but like during Saturday football, Oregon, Ohio State Yeah, I don't know if the guys that run US soccer or looking at they should probably figure that out They were yeah, I would have maybe tuned in if it was like a Wednesday afternoon. I had that on alternate screen But it was good. It was good

You should be excited if you're an American and you like Beating teams and sports that the rest of the world cares about. I do. Yeah. Like when we win the presidential cup in golf or whatever that we don't give a shit about and we beat the rest of the world, that feels good as an American. I want this guy to be good. My whole take has always been if this guy, if the US men's national team doesn't get good, are we going to keep coach are we gonna be like hey, maybe we're not good No, this is just on us not being good if we don't okay. Yeah, and then I'm in I'm all in on him

I'm still all in on the idea of somehow getting this guy to make Messi a temporary citizen or get him like a Passport yeah, I'm messy will play for us in the world. Let's do that Let's do that if he wants to win another one. He does have a World Cup victory. Ronaldo could never. All right. My who's back is Rick Pitino. Yeah, went back to Kentucky. They were doing a celebration for the championship team. Obviously Mark Pope is now the coach. He was on that team. It was cool. It was cool. I think our guy Matt Jones also got an interview with him. Yep. So like felt like it was kind of all coming back together. It was nice. I like that they're just letting Rick kind of help out coaching the Kentucky basketball team, even though he's the coach of St. John's.

I think there were some St. John's fans that were a little upset, but they were in one cup. They were celebrating a championship. Yeah. Hey, St. John's fans, you can sit in the corner of this hotel room and watch. Also- When Coach is Kentucky. Also, Rick Petino's back because there was a New York Post article that said St. John's, New York's largest Catholic university has cancelled Columbus Day and he just said fake news. So I'm just gonna- I'm not gonna read the article. I'm just gonna go with Rick Petino and say fake news. Yeah, we don't need community notes. We got community coach. Fake news. That's fake news. They can't take that away can they max no not for Italians no that's a are you gonna take tomorrow off you can have tomorrow off now I'll be here I'm the Italians would want me to be here the

Italians want you to work yeah how bad I'll be late okay all right yeah that's what Columbus would want. Enjoy your heritage. Okay, anything else? Another great week of football.
