guys. Thank you Mike Fuentes.
Marcus Mariota, huh? He's back.
Amazing. I had no idea Marcus
Mariota was still in the league
but uh there he was yesterday.
He's always going to be in the league. Uh as long as Tim Boyle's in the league Marcus Mariotta will be in the league. That is a that's a very fair point the
Commanders win 40 to 7 even while Jayden Daniels goes down early in that game. They do it with Marcus Mariotta But I guess the big game of the weekend and we'll get to college with Lucy coming up here in a few minutes
But the big game over the weekend, we'll get to the Jets. We'll get to the big game of Lucy coming up here in a few minutes but the big game over
the weekend, we'll get to the
Jets. We'll get to Jason
Sanders. We'll get to all the
big games from yesterday but
San Francisco and Kansas City
bags. I was wondering who you
were going to dub the big game
of the weekend because we had a
lot yesterday, right? We had
Lions Vikings. Good game. What
a great game Packers. Yeah,
which is looking like a good
game. We had Chiefs 49ers. Yeah. Oh, Texas, Georgia. Yeah. Yeah. Which is looking like a good game. We had Chiefs 49ers. Yeah. Texas,
Georgia. Yeah. Bama, Tennessee.
Yeah. We had games this weekend.
It was a great football weekend.
We've been doing. Yeah. Yeah.
Good college weekend. It was a
good college weekend. We'll
uh we'll discuss it coming up
here with Lucy. You were really
getting on a Brock Purdy and
Patrick Mahomes right before we
went on air here. Well, I I'm
getting on them. I mean, it's saying that they were a disgrace to the position
of quarterback in the game of football getting on them.
I don't know.
Too much?
A disgrace.
Yeah, well, for Mahomes, yes, a bit too much.
Is it?
Yeah, a disgrace.
I mean, no touchdowns, two interceptions.
He has a rushing touchdown, whatever.
Brock Purdy, three interceptions.
Brock Purdy.
49ers, when they're completely injured,
don't look that great, obviously,
it's because they're completely injured,
but when they're completely injured,
totally different team, huh?
Mahomes now has six touchdowns,
eight interceptions on the season.
He is tied with Jordan Love
for the most interceptions this season.
Don't worry about that with Jordan Love, Jordan Love.
He also leads the NFL and wins.
I mean.
Jordan Love in second and wins probably.
Well.
Yeah, he has five now, right?
Yeah, but he didn't get,
remember they got two with Malik Willis, so.
Oh, that's a good point, good point, good point.
Exactly.
Remember him?
You know that quarterback wins isn't actually a stat
that matters all that much.
No, it's the only stat that matters.
Oh. Yeah, yeah.
All right.
Whoever leads the NFL and wins is-
Well, no, because it's a team,
because you just pointed out, we're getting stuck in life.
We're getting bogged down in semantics.
Yeah, we are.
Here's the scary thing about Mahomes, right?
He hasn't looked great.
He hasn't played well yet.
Yeah, when he does.
I mean, are we getting the bad play out of the way now?
Is he going to turn it on? Like I'm wondering with the chiefs. Like, are we just kind of we're going to figure it out, right?
Maybe are they going to figure it out? Because like they look great not having figured it out.
So when they do like this is a dangerous team if they figure it out, which I don't know why you would think they wouldn't figure it out.
They're two time Super Bowl champions back to back. I mean, they Patrick Mahomes. Eventually, Pacheco is going to come back. Eventually,
Rice is going to come back. They have the best defense and the best defensive coordinator in the
NFL. This is amazing. Billy is right because this team is 6-0 without their best player doing the
special things that he normally does. And when he starts to become special again, they're going to
be unbeatable. I mean. I'm trying to figure out what is there to figure out with a 6-0 team. special things that he normally does and when he starts to become special again, they're
going to be unbeatable. I mean,
I'm trying to figure out what is
there to figure out with a six
and oh team. I don't know. Yeah.
Well, I mean they they haven't
looked at how about like tired
of them. Kareem Hunt just hey,
come on over. Yeah. Yeah, you're
fine. Yeah. Yeah, you're fine.
No, they don't react the way
the Jets do would go out and get
to Vonte Adams. They lose a wide
receiver and they just,
you know, they bring in another
some guy who's been with the
team before or some guy who's
sitting on the practice squad.
I mean, that's what that's why
there's a depth chart. Yes.
Yeah. That's why there's a depth
chart. Let's just let's just
say next guy up. Oh, he's great
now. Yeah. Next. Yeah. Uh it's
amazing, Billy. I'm so
disappointed because a lot of these teams that do a lot of winning and they win
consistently, whether it's the Steelers, whether it's the
Chiefs, they have stability and I'm sitting here watching the
Jets and they're plugging holes during the season. They're
firing their head coach during the season. They're going out
and getting Devante Adams during the season. They don't
have anything figured out before the season. They're going out and getting Devante Adams during the season. They don't have anything figured out before the
season. They figure it out on the fly and it is. It's just
not the way to run an NFL organization and yet here I am
with the Jets and I'm still holding out hope because I still
think Aaron Rodgers might be able to get back to something
close to where he was a few years ago, but this is not the
way to run an NFL
organization or any organization
for that matter. Am I crazy to
think that we're like a couple
weeks away from the Chiefs
signing MVS again, right? Like
they're just going to get him.
He was just cut by the bills.
They're just going to pick him
up and he's going to have like
a moment on the run to what is
going to be another championship,
right? Yeah. That's just the way the Chiefs operate. They make these little moves,
they bring in their guys that used to play here, they fit in perfectly. The Jets, to your point,
that's not how they operate. No, no. Devante Adams could have played with Josh Allen.
I mean. Are you uh, I don't, I, can I tell you something? I don't believe that. Like I don't
buy that logic that he could have just gone to Buffalo.
There's monetary implications here.
There's a reason that he went to the Jets,
and there's a reason that Buffalo is going after and getting
Amari Cooper for like $800,000 a year instead of multi-millions.
Right, so you're saying that was not an option.
Maybe you're right.
I don't think that he would have fit there.
You might be right.
I'm just saying he had, I'd like to think he had choices fit there. You might be right. I'm just saying he had,
I'd like to think he had choices other than the New York Jets.
But he wasn't a free agent.
I think he got what he wanted.
I think he wanted to go there.
I think he wanted to go to the Jets.
He went from a two and five team to a two and five team.
He got what he wanted.
But he's with the homies though.
I think I saw.
Yeah, but that's not the same homie
that he used to hang out with.
Definitely not.
It's not. What do you mean? That's a different guy. I think I saw that. But that's not the same homie that he
used to hang out with. I mean,
it's not. What do you mean?
That's a different guy. Aaron
Rogers is not the quarterback
he was playing with three and
four or five years ago. I
mean. Are you worried about
him yet? Yes. Hmm. Yep. Yeah,
I am. How could you not be?
He's terrible. I'm would you
trade him for Russell Wilson
because Russell Wilson looks.
I'll tell you right now. Yesterday.
The Jets would advance far in
the playoffs with Justin Fields. How about that? That's terrible
take. No, it's not a terrible
take. I don't know if it's
terrible. I really don't. You
would take Justin Fields over
Aaron Rodgers. He has been so
but he is the reason we're
losing football games. Not the
defense, not the coaches. It is
Aaron Rodgers. He is the reason
that the Jets are sitting here
at two and five.
Yes, I would take that's just
not true. That's just not true.
37 yesterday, right? Russell
Wilson who hasn't played a game
since before Christmas of last
year, they gave up 37 to that
garbage offense with a fourth
string center yet nobody could
get a pass rush and you're
telling me Aaron Rodgers is the like he's he's part of the problem. No, well.
Let's not talk about him being like he's the savior.
He's part of the problem.
But it is absolutely not all his fault.
Mikey, during the telecast, they're saying Devante Adams,
the missing piece.
No, Aaron Rodgers was supposed to be the missing piece.
No, Aaron Rodgers.
That's true.
Aaron Rodgers was the-
Garrett Wilson is handing the ball to the other team.
Like, oh, just bounce this off my chest.
You take it.
Yeah, too frustrated Jeff fan.
Sorry, Billy.
Reese Hall is good.
Yeah, he's the only guy that's good.
I mean, you guys will be fine.
Way to bring it around, Billy.
How are we going to be fine?
I don't think they're going to be fine.
You guys will be okay.
We're two and five, man.
They're not going to be fine.
They're not going to be fine.
This is closer to a 6-11 season than it is a playoff team.
Yes.
I mean, you guys don't have the ultimate confidence
in Jeff Ulbrich who couldn't even throw a challenge flag.
He dropped it and then you ended up bailed out.
Thank God.
We locked into a touchdown.
Yeah.
I mean.
My fantasy team with Tyler Conklin was thankful.
I couldn't even believe what I was watching when that happened.
It's unbelievable. I mean, I have no faith. They have the Patriots next. They take on
the Texans after that. They're at Arizona, but there was no, I can't sit here and say,
oh, easy schedule. I mean, they are the easy schedule. Other teams look at that and say,
oh, we get the jets. It's unbelievable. I was looking over, I was looking over.
I was looking over the dolphin schedule, hoping for some kind of hope.
And I marked those jets games as wins.
Of course I did.
I did.
Oh really?
Both of them.
Huh?
Yeah.
Well, congratulations.
So I don't disagree.
You're done.
You're done with the jets.
That's it.
It's over.
Well, then then you guys are in really bad shape because if like what do you what do you guys anticipate the record being?
Now that you've given up hope
Two and five. I mean she didn't you have him 14 and oh, so they're two and seven
I did yeah, two and seven if you factor in for this is two losses to the Dolphins. Yeah
Patriots good enough not to get a good quarterback in the giraffe
But I had enough to do they'll string together like five wins at the end of the season the the Seahawks. I know we're not going to beat the Bills. I'm not certain we're going to beat Seattle at home. I mean,
Seattle's better with Joe Flacco,
right? Oh, no doubt. No doubt.
100%. They're 100% better with
Joe Flacco. The larger point,
and I think the reason Billy's a
little bit frustrated as a
Dolphin fan today, besides Jason
Sanders, is the backup quarterback
is so important in the NFL today.
And you see it with Washington when they're they're able to go to Marcus
Mariota. You see it in other places. You see it in
Minnesota. Well, JJ McCarthy, the rookie goes down at Sam
Darnold is the guy who's having having a good season. The
Vikings had every chance to win that game. It's an important
position and the teams that don't have one are the teams
that you know if their guy goes down, they're going to be a
big trouble and the Dolphins are certainly one of those teams that you know if their guy goes down, they're
going to be a big trouble and
the Dolphins are certainly one
of those teams. Are you you're
longing for Tyrod Taylor? Then
are you I take Tyrod Taylor. I
don't I don't think I don't
think he'd be bad. I think he
you think he'd be better than
Aaron. You guys. No, no, I
think he'd be a lateral move a
lateral move to Aaron Rogers at
this point. Yeah. Well, I'm not
saying for the Jets Billy. I'm
just saying in general like
when it goes down, you want to have a good backup. The Dolphins were not prepared with a good backup.
I think it's important for a contender.
Cause obviously if you're like the Raiders or somebody,
Aiden O'Connell, Minshew, it's a push.
But if you're a contender, you need that good backup
because if you lose a guy for four or five games,
you could miss out on the playoffs
because of those four or five games.
Why are we talking about this?
He brought a backup quarterback.
Yeah, no, I know.
He brought a Marcus Mariota.
Well, I'm just saying, like have a plan B. Joe Well, I'm just saying, like, have a plan B.
Joe Flacco.
Yeah, Joe Flacco, have a plan B.
Tyrod Taylor.
Please, I mean, the Packers,
they lose Jordan Love for a couple of games,
they win two without him.
And those two games are huge.
Yeah, but.
Those two games are huge right now.
That wasn't a backup plan.
I mean, it worked for two games.
It worked, but that wasn't like a long-term plan.
That was a band-aid.
And he got his revenge game.
Well, Hundley got hurt for the Dolphins,
and we went back, right? Yeah, it was back to Tim Boyle.
Tim Boyle.
And we keep ending up in the Tim Boyle world.
How is he stealing, he's stealing money,
how is he doing it?
Tim Boyle.
Oh my God, best agent on the planet.
Tim Boyle, yesterday, had one of the worst football plays
I've ever seen, and it was in theory a successful play
because it was a completion.
Where I mean, if you're from down here,
you were watching the game.
If you're not, you had no reason
to be watching Dolphins Colts.
Where Tim Boyle is somehow leading the team
on what could potentially be a game winning drive.
They're out of timeouts, running out of time,
taking forever, running out of time,
decides,
second and one does a little check down pass
in nowhere near the sideline for a negative one yard loss,
out of timeouts, just to essentially lose the game.
Then he goes, then he downs it on third down,
so now it's fourth down with like 13 seconds left,
and they need a first down.
He sails it out of bounds.
20 yards over the guy's head on fourth down.
That's what Tim Boyle does.
I don't understand it.
And if you're HN and you catch that ball, why?
Just drop it.
You know you're not gonna make anything happen.
At least you stopped the clock.
Ridiculous.
Anyways, we're not here to talk about the Dolphins.
He's now 0 and 5 and the NFL is a starter.
I'm surprised.
I don't know what I'm surprised by.
I guess I'm surprised by he's got five opportunities.
He had one touchdown in 13 interceptions
that you got in college.
How is he in the league?
I don't know.
He has pictures of somebody or something.
I don't know.
That's crazy.
It really is.
He's getting better.
How did we not talk about Lions Vikings in the first segment?
I have no idea. We failed the audience. We apologize. We'll do better next Lions Vikings Texans Packers

But I have in front of me one winner and one loser

You have one winner and one loser.
By the way, two Monday Night Football games

audience prepared for it. I
mean. Spoiler alert. To Monday
night games tonight. Ravens,
Bucks, Chargers, Cardinals, but
back to winners and losers. It
is true. Friends, the rumors are
true. Later in the show, Billy's
Big Board Betts bonus board is back. Wow.
Yep.
There's a high in there.
He has an actual bonus board.
It's amazing.
There's a bonus board, it's here.
We're gonna get to it.
Big time.
Don't worry about it.
And I do a lot of research.
Very exciting.
So you wanna do winners first or losers first?
What do you wanna do?
Winners and losers.
Let's, I'm gonna give you a winner
because I feel like things have been a little negative
so far on the show today.
And I wanna.
With good reason.
Some positivity.
Okay.
So my winner this week, presented by Smirnoff,
the world's number one vodka, please drink responsibly.
My winner this week, Saquon Barkley.
Revenge game.
Yesterday was a Saquon Barkley revenge game.
He went back to MetLife, 176 rushing yards,
a touchdown in his return to New York versus the Giants.
Saquon, the big winner.
All right.
Great game for him.
Very good game.
Yes.
And the Eagles are now four and three on the season.
Nick Sirriotti puts, you know, puts whatever criticism he's received, which is ridiculous
as far as I'm concerned.
He puts it aside at least for a week now because they won and he didn't do anything crazy.
You know?
Yeah. That's a good day for the Eagles.
Yesterday.
He didn't shout at anybody in the stands, nothing like that.
He just took his win.
He left.
He went home.
Normal day at the office.
Yesterday in our daily fantasy contest presented
by Smirnoff, the world's number one vodka,
please drink responsibly.
Yes.
I thought that I was going to steal some points defensively
and I was looking good early in the game.
I took the Giants defense.
Oh wow.
Early on they were looking pretty good, pretty good.
And then as we mentioned, Saquon 176 rushing yards,
a touchdown and they won 28 to three against the Giants.
Now, friends, here's some big news.
Yesterday, big bounce back week for Billy
in our weekly fantasy contest presented by Smear and Off,
the world's number one vodka, please drink responsibly.
Really, what happened?
I finished in 41st place.
Way to go.
Just outside the money.
And here's the thing about my roster
that was kind of crazy, right?
Is I got Jordan Love.
He's good.
I got a bunch of players.
I was heavy on the top.
I was top heavy.
And then I was just kind of plugging in, as I mentioned.
I got the Giants because they were a low value defense.
So I was plugging in, plugging in,
plugging in with cheap additions.
Here's the thing.
None of my high money guys
actually really delivered for me.
The two guys that paid off for me
were my two cheap additions.
John who Smith and David and Joku.
Wow.
Both of them went wild, had over 20 points,
carried my team yesterday,
and those were my last two guys that I added.
Yeah.
Congratulations to you.
Thanks. All right, big day. Yeah. Congratulations to you. Thanks.
Alright, big day.
Yeah, Daily Fantasy Contest presented by the winner.
You're a winner.
The world's number one vodka.
Please drink responsibly.
If you want to compete against this $3 buying, you can win some cold hard cash.
Before we get to Billy's loser, I do have a winner.
Do you?
I do.
Okay.
My winner is Jared Goff.
Jared Goff, the last four weeks of the NFL season
has been the best quarterback in the NFL. He has and he's in
the MVP conversation and all the talk when they made that
trade was about Matthew Stafford won the Super Bowl
did it with Sean McVeigh and all that is true and it's a
trade that worked out for both teams but Jared Goff a guy
that I think Sean McVeigh gave up on and probably a lot of fans gave up on Jared Goff. Um a guy that I
think Sean McVeigh gave up on
and probably a lot of fans gave
up on. Uh he is one hell of a
quarterback. I would love to
have Jared Goff as my
quarterback. So, II want to
give a winner if if we can give
winners. I want to give a
winner. Dan Campbell. To Stu
Gotts. Oh. Because Stu Gotts
since that trade happened.
Stugots decided to zig when
everyone else was zagging in that situation. Mm situation. And he was saying the Lions won that trade.
Now granted, Stafford did win a Super Bowl.
He did, yes.
However-
He was lucky to win that Super Bowl.
Okay.
You forget about the drop pass against Tampa.
The interception that should have ended the game,
Brady should have went back.
He would have won another Super Bowl.
Doesn't matter, we digress, sorry about that.
I mean, I'm trying to make you a winner.
Thank you, okay.
I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'll be quiet.
He's kind of sounding like a loser.
I'll be quiet.
He just said he's gonna zig when everybody's there. Sorry, I'll be quiet. Actively talking Billy out of making you a winner. I know, okay. I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I'm kind of sounding like a loser. You just said he's going to zig when everybody's at it.
Sorry, I'll be quiet.
Actively talking Billy out of making you a winner.
I know, I don't understand what we're doing here.
Forget what I just said and please continue.
Well, you said that they won that trade
and I think, what is it now?
Like three weeks, four weeks in a row
that he's had a rating over 140.
Like he's been ridiculous the last couple of weeks.
If he would have had a rating over 150,
he would have been the first quarterback in history
to have over 150 in three straight games.
Amazing, amazing.
Jared Goff.
He's pretty good.
He is pretty good.
Well, is he?
I don't know, he's good enough.
He's good for now.
I mean, he's great for now.
I love him right now.
He's great for now, and by the way, underpaid?
Yeah.
Underpaid, maybe?
Yep.
Is he like the third highest paid quarterback?
Yeah, but underpaid maybe a little bit.
A little hold out maybe?
Hold out.
Try to win a Super Bowl.
Now's the time.
Hold out now.
Mikey A, do you have a winner?
No.
Alright.
It was a rough night. it was a rough night.
His Yankees are in the World Series,
but he still just tried.
I know, why don't you make the winners of Yankees?
Are you a winner, Mikey?
Yes.
Yankees made the World Series.
Yeah, Yankees are a winner.
Here's the thing, before we started,
and this is God bless football.
Yeah, God bless football, not God bless baseball,
but here's the thing, before we started,
Mikey was ranting about Stanton
who helped you guys get to the World Series.
He had some pretty big home runs in the ALCS.
And you're like, you're an ingrate, I would say.
You're completely ungrateful.
It's ridiculous.
I have a hypothetical to throw at you,
Yankees related Mikey and Stu Gutz,
and then we'll get back to football
since this is God Bless Football.
So I was texted by Taylor
Mm-hmm who works on the show. Yes, and he said that his Yankees group chat was discussing how much you would pay in concessions to keep
Juan Soto
Any he the question in the group was would you pay a hundred dollars for a hot dog if it meant keeping Juan Soto?
Hmm, it's probably gonna take more than a hundred a hot dog, but they can they don't need to Absolutely, I would you would pay a hundred dollars for a hot dog that's what I prices though. I mean, sure.
You just go in and I'll watch
the game on my couch with my
with my no, you got hot dogs I
bought from the grocery store.
Yeah, exactly. You go in like
it's kind of like I'll pay I'll
pay for the yes app or whatever
the Gotham City app, whatever
the hell it's on now. Yeah, I'll
pay for that. Uh Jared. I'll
get Jared Goff currently getting
paid $53 million. Yeah, under
paid. He is uh he is the fifth
highest paid quarterback in the league. Yeah. He is behind Tua, Jordan Love, Trevor Lawrence,
Joe Burrow and Dak Prescott.
Hold out.
Yeah, underpaid.
Trevor Lawrence getting paid $55 million.
Raise the hot dog prices in Detroit.
That's what I say.
Underpaid.
Just like being, this is not gonna sound rude.
Be an adult, eat before you leave the house.
Fine.
Pee before you leave the house.
That's it?
Yeah.
Sometimes I go in, I'll grab fast food
on the way to the ballpark, I'm good.
Or sometimes.
I'll pack a little PB&J, put in a Ziploc bag.
Fast food is obviously great for games
because it sits like a rock in your stomach.
Oh yeah.
And it's cheap, it'll last you the whole game.
I love a good rock in my stomach.
You want a loser?
I do want a loser.
Winners and losers presented by Sphere and Off,
the world's number one vodka, please drink responsibly.
I can't believe I'm saying this because I never thought I would utter these words in my lifetime. I do want a loser. Winners and losers presented by Spearnoft, the world's number one vodka.
Please drink responsibly. I
can't believe I'm saying this
because I never thought I would
utter these words in my
lifetime. What? But the Lions
and Vikings lived up to the
hype. I don't know. I I I I
don't disagree with you.
Vikings also. What do you mean?
I'm not sold on them. By the
way, by the way, Jared Goff did
that to Brian Flores' defense. Yeah. Yeah. She's. That's why that's why I'm not sold on them. By the way, Jared Goff did that to Brian Flores' defense. Yeah.
She's.
That's why I'm not sold on them.
I have a quick loser.
Okay.
All right, go ahead.
CJ Stroud.
Didn't look great.
Dude, did not.
We talked about this.
Yeah.
We talked about this.
Sophomore slump for CJ Stroud.
Didn't look great.
Nico Collins, big winner.
Yeah.
Big winner.
Needs him badly.
It looks like we can't do anything about Nico Collins.
Anyways, here's a loser.
Tanked out, no catches.
Gardner Mentschew, 154 passing yards,
three interceptions, a fumble loss, a 12.6 cube yard,
and a 21 passer rating, which seems very bad.
Yes.
When you're longing for Aiden O'Connell
with a broken thumb, big loser.
All right.
Mikey, you have a loser or no?
You have nothing?
Yeah, the city of New York.
Giants, Jets, Mets, all lost last night.
You're in the World Series.
Jesus Christ.
I didn't say Yankee.
You said the city of New York.
They won on Saturday.
My losers are the San Francisco 49ers, overratedrated Kyle Shanahan, blah, blah, blah.
Lucy next.
Liberty won the WNBA title last night.
City of losers, according to Mikey.
That happened.
Spagati here from my friends over at Miller Lite.

And we're back, Stig. We are we are. Guess who's here? Who?
Lucy's here. Hi. Can I
actually say something to lead
off the show? Am I allowed to
do that? Yeah, of course. Go
ahead. Uh right now, Indiana is
ranked higher than Alabama. I
just wanted to put that out
there. The Hoosiers. You did so with a smile on your face.
It's cool.
It's pretty cool.
It is cool.
College football is cool, huh?
It's the best.
Listen, I had fun this weekend.
It's been a very rough season for me as an FIU Panther.
Well, every season.
Well, it's been particularly rough
when we lost to Utah this past weekend to I'd not want to
game this season, right? But I want to say we hung in there
with Indiana the first week of the season and it took until
right until the end of the fourth quarter to not cover
that game. Moral victory. Some boneheaded plays. I'm I'm
looking here and I'm like, that's the closest anyone's
played Indiana all year. There you go lost by fifty. There you go. I mean, closest anyone's played Indiana all
year. There you go. Lost by
fifty. There you go. I mean,
Northwestern also played
Indiana very close at home. I'm
just just. It's a game in the
fourth quarter. I'm just saying.
Why why do you have to? You're
so negative. I'm trying to. Hey,
pause up, man. No, I've had a
rough season and here you are
just kind of being a rude boy.
I'm sorry. I mean, listen, I'm
coming off a Jets victory. The Mets are not in the World Series. Mikey A's acting upset as Yankees are in the World Series.
I mean, did you just say a Jets victory?
A Jets. When did that happen?
And it didn't happen.
It never happens.
I'm sorry.
I misspoke.
Let's talk college with Lucy.
Yeah, let's do that.
Lucy, how was Tennessee?
You went to Alabama, Tennessee.
Was that your first time to the University of Tennessee?
Yes, it was awesome.
It was really cool.
The fans are super nice.
The tailgating was really,
really good.
We were a little nervous after the first half being like,
I think we made the wrong choice.
I think we should have gone to Georgia, Texas.
It was very like, man,
if I wanted to watch an Iowa game,
I would and I don't.
So like I'm really not enjoying what I'm seeing here,
but second half was really, really awesome. I think that like the cool nature of it was like when talking to fans before the
game, the question that kept coming up was, is this a playoff elimination game? And the answer
seemed to be yes. Most people felt like it was. And so it was more stakes than a normal Tennessee,
Alabama fan game. And there are already a lot of
stakes in that. It was cool to see. I know Tennessee won two years ago, but I
did not think Tennessee would pull it out at the end. Just everything that
Tennessee has done in the last 20 years made me believe they wouldn't do it.
And I don't know if that's a product of Nick Saban being gone, but like it was a
great win for Tennessee. I'm happy for them. I had a great time.
Man, do they love playing Rocky Top.
They love it.
That is their favorite song.
It's the only song they like actually.
What was the official counter on that?
Cause you were keeping track on Twitter
of how many times they played it.
It was around 30 and I probably missed one or two.
I definitely didn't make any,
but we need like a margin of error on that.
Cause you know, I went to the bathroom at one point, like they probably played Rocky
Top when I was in the bathroom. I will say that I think it was a low count in the game
overall because the first half was so bad that there was one point when they went a
full hour without playing Rocky Top.
Wow. Really? That's amazing.
One hour. That's a long time. That's basically like 10 years Tennessee time.
I'm guessing it's the longest they've ever got without playing that song. Ever.
Yeah, it was crazy. I was like, dang, this was a good bid I had going. Now it's over.
Why does security not let them take the goalposts? That seems like a bad decision.
They were fined so much money last time they beat Alabama for throwing the goalpost in
the river.
I do not know how much goalpost costs.
I'm assuming Tennessee can afford it.
Hold on.
Where's the line?
Because they're already getting fined for everybody being on the field, right?
So just let them take the goalpost.
You already broke it.
You don't have to get a new one anyways.
And they already broke it.
Yeah.
They already ripped it down.
It's gone.
Both goalposts were floating through the crowd.
So I don't understand why. we saw security stop the goalpost
So neither goalposts actually left the stadium kind of lame. I don't know why they did it
I'm sure it's like financial but like you're already gonna get fined for storming the field and we talked about a little before the show
Start but for the listeners
I have never seen a fan base destroy their own field the way Tennessee did. They were all just ripping chunks out of the field.
It's probably going to cost a lot to repair what they did.
And that's pretty straight.
That's a storied program right there.
How about you act like you've been there before because you have been there before.
I agree, but I don't.
In the sense, I'm always pro-stormfield.
These are college kids.
Half of the student body wasn't there
the last time that Tennessee beat Alabama,
which I know was two years ago.
Before that, it was like 20 years prior.
So-
You guys are boring.
You don't like fun.
Beating Alabama is something for everybody.
I think, honestly, maybe it's everyone's trying
to get it out of their system,
because they know they're not gonna be able to do this
next time they play Alabama,
because they're going the wrong direction.
I like the idea of them keeping the pieces
and welding it back together.
And then like the next like field goal,
someone kicks a doink, the post just a chunk falls off
or the whole thing just collapses because they decided
we're not gonna buy a new one,
we're just gonna fix this one.
They'll play Rocky Top as it goes down.
Go ahead, Mikey.
I was gonna say, Lucy, if I made you the czar
of college football, how many years probation would you give Tennessee where they like they can't storm the field if
they beat Alabama because they've done it now? Like how long until it's okay to storm the field
again? I would say the next time that Alabama starts playing like they did two and three years
ago. I won't say it's even like a specific when Saban comes back, when Alabama is it like throwing up against South Carolina and Van Dyke,
then you're allowed to storm the field.
Lucy, I don't I don't want to make you feel bad. And I feel like this is the
direction you're about to know. I feel like this direction is like a warning
I'm giving you we're gonna head into like an area that you don't like to
discuss, but I don't want you to feel bad. So I'm giving you. We're gonna head into like an area that you don't like to discuss, but I don't want you to feel bad.
So I'm giving you kind of ample warning here.
I wanna ask you about Miami.
So-
I knew that's what you were gonna say.
Yeah.
Is six as high as they're gonna go?
Cause it seems like AP doesn't wanna put them any higher.
And by the way, like, and look,
I don't want to sound like a UM hater here,
but I think we saw that
game.
This is not the sixth best team in the country.
It is different to see Miami get a close game and not just like completely like piss all
over themselves.
That's a nice change of pace.
Miami is a very good football team.
They have taken all their problems and they put one giant cam ward bandaid over it.
So I'm curious to see how next year looks, but we're not talking about next year.
That's not the point of this.
Miami is a good football team.
They'll probably stay at around that point.
They just don't have any opportunity on their schedule period to get a good win.
A championship game, which I assume will be against Clemson or maybe Pitt,
who knows?
That's like really the last chance that Miami will have
to get like a sort of signature win.
I know that their fans keep throwing like these weird,
you know, like, well, ESPN's schedule tells you
that Miami has the 10th hardest schedule
in college football.
No, they don't.
No, they're not playing anybody.
You got Florida State this week.
Cal was their big, like this is a tough game.
Cal hasn't won an ACC game.
He lost to NC State and Florida State.
It's a bad schedule.
So I don't see them go,
they don't really have a chance to go up a ton
unless a bunch of chaos happens in one through five,
which it has already this season, so potentially.
Well, that's the thing, right?
Is that it already has,
and they're still just sitting at six.
Like they're not moving up.
They're the lone undefeated,
well, I guess there's other undefeated.
Yeah, but if they're undefeated or even with one loss,
they're gonna make the playoffs.
No, no, they'll make the playoffs,
but it seems like six is about as high as we're gonna get
unless like disaster happens,
which by the way, Lucy, I wanna run this by you
and tell me
what you think about this. If somehow, some way they lose to
FSU this weekend. They won't. You you drop them out of the
top twenty-five, right? Yeah, straight out of the top. You
have to drop them out of the top twenty-five. You lose to FSU.
Yes. You're out of there. Lucy, he's right. I mean. Yeah,
you probably won't go full top twenty-five. You're gonna go from like six to like
they'll put you at 23 just so you're still ranked, right?
Which is almost being at 23 almost as bad as just I'd rather
just be unranked. Right. Just don't even put me there. Yeah.
But you shouldn't make the playoff if you lose the Florida
State, right? If you do not get another signature win. So like
if you lose the Florida State, you go to the ACC and you get win. If you do not get another
signature win. So like if you
lose to Florida State, you go
to the ACC and you get your
brakes blown off by Clemson,
then no. Right. Okay. I'm with
you, Billy. Let's drop him out
of top twenty-five. They lose
FSU. Yup. And they don't make
the playoffs. It's funny. Yes,
it is funny. They probably, I
don't think they'll lose to
FSU. I don't think that'll
happen. I don't either. I have
some Lucy or Goosey for you. Ready?
Yes. Alabama is missing the playoff. Lucy or Goosey?
Right now, my answer is Lucy. They have two losses and there will be two lost teams that
get into the playoff. That's kind of the the bummer part about the twelve team playoff.
The cool part is you might see Indiana Deanna. They still have LSU on
the schedule who is playing well. The way that Alabama has played, not even against Tennessee,
but against South Carolina and Vanderbilt, they have every opportunity to screw something up over
the next few weeks. LSU might not even be the biggest problem they have remaining on their schedule. Uh, that that's just a really just like funky football team and not in a good
way where like the difference between having Nick Saban and not having Nick
Saban has been so insane.
They're missing tackles the way they have.
They've never done before.
They're giving up big plays the way they've never done before.
Like their offense was pretty stagnant for most of that Tennessee game.
Like Jalen Miller really wasn't able to create anything either with his arm.
He was just like out there doing stuff.
Like my whole take on Jalen Miller was like, he's always doing like,
he's never thinking about it. He's just doing sometimes that works out.
But for the most part, like it was just,
they don't seem to have any real identity right now which is like
the least Alabama football thing of all time and so I see them getting another
loss or two and at this point like there are other teams in the SEC like A&M I
believe is undefeated through conference play like you might want to put A&M in
over Alabama it's crazy I never thought we'd be here, but it's cool. It honestly kind of rules.
How grateful is the committee that there's a 12-team playoff this year and not a 14-team
playoff?
They could not be happier because they are going like that's why I almost kind of already
just regret the answer I gave because like they'll be like, well Alabama's four losses
were close and that's basically better than four wins.
So we're sorry, 12 and oh, Indiana, like Alabama is just going to take this spot.
Um, they, they have to be thrilled.
I think you'll still run into the same sort of issues of like, well, why, why are
they at the 11 seed and they, and you know, when I think that Ole Miss is the
11th best team in the country, you're going to still run into those issues, but it won't be as like a glaring obvious sort of like
what happens like the Florida State moment from last year.
It's gonna we'll see how it goes.
We'll see.
Right now, Lucy, we'd be looking at Notre Dame six and one definitely getting the 12th
spot over a 13th ranked undefeated Indiana.
Oh, yeah.
And that's that's a bummer.
Because I would really like to see Notre Dame and Indiana play each other
I think that game would go
Really an Indiana's favor. No offense to Notre Dame. They have been playing good football as of late. Was that your old miss accent?
What'd you do there? Was that right my accent? Oh, yeah, that's that's just someone who's calling in to find bomb
Okay. Yeah, I mean I bet fine bomb caller voice. I went more so
We don't need they don't even need to figure out like who we only get four. They're like, oh good Finebomb. Okay. I mean, I bet. That's a Finebomb caller voice. I went more so. Call!
We don't need, they don't even need to figure out like,
ooh, we only get four.
They're like, oh good, thank God.
Everybody's lost this year.
We don't need to stress this at all.
Like, well, 11, 12, whatever, it doesn't matter.
But at least the top four, like, yeah,
we can put them in there somewhere.
We don't have to shoehorn Alabama with four losses, right?
It is a little bit funny that like a group of 13 people
are coming together and be like, all right,
who's the ninth best team in the country? All right, Lucy or goosey Navy will beat Notre
Dame this weekend. I am gonna go Lucy right now, but I'd say
it was with so I can't say it with 100% confidence. Navy Navy
and army have been playing unbelievably, incredibly well.
They're both undefeated. They're both in the top 25. That hasn't happened since like the early 1900s.
Notre Dame has been playing better as of late. They've seemed to figure things out. Riley
Leonard has kind of found his groove within that offense. I believe this game is at MetLife,
so it's an interesting situation, but this is not any sort of normal Navy team.
This is a Navy team with an absolutely elite offense.
And Notre Dame has a really good defense.
So I'm curious to see how it goes.
It's the best competition Navy's faced all year,
but like, I don't want to bet against the troops, you know?
That's un-American.
Yeah.
But I don't want to bet against my friend Jessica.
That's a bad friend.
Yeah, right.
Win or lose, Navy should make the playoff. If Vandyandy, Lucy or Goosey, uh it's the Navy,
Billy. Uh if Vandy beats Texas, they should get an automatic
bid. Lucy or Goosey? Uh Goosey. What? I'm sorry. What? I'm
sorry. I mean, they beat Alabama and Texas in the same
year. I mean, if they beat Texas, Alabama, and then just throw Tennessee in there for sure.
Okay.
For sure.
Tennessee, that's it.
The Georgia State loss, not great.
Actually, Georgia State is a really good team, so it's really not that bad of a loss.
If they beat Texas, yeah, you have to put them high in the polls.
You should automatically just let them play in the SEC Championship game.
That's the compromise.
All right. Let them in the SEC Championship game, no question. Doesn't matter what the standings are. just let them play in the SEC Championship game. That's the compromise. All right. Let them in the SEC Championship game.
Like, no question.
Doesn't matter what the standings are.
Just let them in.
Lucy or Goosey, LSU Texas A&M is a de facto playoff game.
Yeah.
Lucy.
I don't know.
Lucy right now.
I know they both have a loss, and it's funny,
because that USC loss, that's actually a bad loss right now, I know they both have a loss and it's funny because that USC loss, it's actually a bad loss right now.
I would say yes in the sense that we are, Lucy, in the sense that we're probably going
to get four plus SEC teams.
So the sort of same deal with Alabama as before, we're like, you're going to have like a bunch
of losses in the college football playoff.
Both teams could make the playoff.
Like truly if Texas A&M wins this game, then LSU goes on to beat Alabama and went out. the game. I think there's a bunch of losses in the college football playoff. Both teams
could make the playoff like
truly if Texas A&M wins this
game, then LSU goes on to beat
Alabama and went out like you
probably see both of these
teams in the playoff. So now
I actually I changed my answer
to Goosey because I think there
are other circumstances that
could help. Sometimes you gotta
talk it out. I understand that.
I talked it out. I talked it
out. You talked through it. I'm
proud of you. I don't get these
questions ahead of time. Final
one for you. Lucy or Goosey, Kirby Smart can get the hell out of here
with the no one respected us card.
I have a funny little, Lucy,
I have a funny little tidbit.
I posted on my Instagram story like a year plus ago,
making fun of how Kirby Smart is like,
everybody doesn't believe in Georgia.
And this is when Georgia was the number one team
in the country, undefeated,
the most popular pick for the national championship. And I had when Georgia was the number one team in the country, undefeated, the most popular pick
for the national championship.
And I had a Georgia football player DM me and be like,
you don't get it, nobody believes in us.
Like, absolutely not.
Like, he's not saying anything that's not true.
Like, you should see the things that people say about us.
And I was like, brother, you were just like,
like, hey man, go outside, read a newspaper.
I'm glad that you're buying into what he's saying, but like, I can tell you, go, go outside.
Yeah. Newspaper. Exactly. I'm
glad. I'm glad that you're
buying into what he's saying
but like I can tell you that's
not true. You can't win. You
can't win two out of three
national championships, two
national championships in three
seasons and come out and say no
one respects us. No one believes
in us. Get out of here. I think
Georgia opened is the favorite
or like as it got closer to
game time was the favorite. You're a top five team.
Your only loss was to an Alabama team who at the time we thought was
like amazing.
Like be so serious, Kirby.
No one is saying that.
No one has ever said that.
Thank you.
Yeah.
Where are you headed this weekend, Lucy?
It's a good weekend in college football.
There's a lot of good games. We're not going to any of those, though. We're not going to any. Oh, Lucy? It's a good weekend in college football.
There's a lot of good games.
We're not going to any of those, though.
We're not going to any of those.
Oh, really? Okay.
By week? We're going, yeah,
we're going to Ole Miss, Oklahoma.
Wow.
Oklahoma is very bad, just fired
their offensive coordinator,
but our whole bid is tailgating.
So if we don't go to Oxford, if we don't go to the Grove,
we have done something wrong.
So we're going to Oxford this weekend.
I'm very excited, it's my first time there.
Okay.
That's awesome.
I was thinking Oregon, Illinois,
I was thinking Navy, Notre Dame, I was thinking, you know.
Ohio State, Indiana.
Yeah, oh wow, that's right.
There's Boise State, UNLV,
there's a lot of good stuff happening this weekend.
We just planned it out
before we knew any of that would be good.
You'll still have fun. Yeah, you'll have fun.
Yeah, it won't matter that much. I've had two storm fields back to back. I kind of need a little break.
It'll probably be more fun, honestly, you know, because like there's no expectations.
Everyone's just there to have a good time.
And like, look, I'm just going to be honest and expose myself for a second and maybe I
won't get credentials again because I say this. When the games are blowouts, I go back up to the press box and watch more football games.
It's cool. All right.
I like it. Our secret.
Our secret that's on camera. Yeah.
But I do such a good job.
We always produce good content.
Everybody loves it. Tennessee is going to love it. Right.
But Bill is right.
Everyone's there just for a good time, you know, including including Lane Kiffin.
Yeah. Look, I just I just want to see the dog.
I just want to see juice. There you go.
Yeah, you'll see the dog.
Lucy, we appreciate it.
Thank you. Enjoy Mississippi.
It's a fun spot.
I've been there once and I enjoyed it very much.
All right.
To me, Rex, you probably don't have it.
Just thought I'd throw that in the ground.
Oh, that's a good spot.
Yeah. Oh, cool.
I got recommendations for you, Lucy.
Oh, excited. Yeah. Oxford recs
send them my way. All right. Thank you, Lucy. We will talk
to you next weekend. We appreciate it as always. I can't
believe you guys didn't ask a question about throwing trash
on the field. Pale journalistic opportunity for music. Oh my
god. I totally forgot they they turned the call because of that
right. They did. Absolutely. Hey, sometimes bullying
does get what you want. We'll talk to you next week.
Thanks, Lucy. Bye, y'all.
the the
we have two Monday night football games tonight. Billy, I saw him during the break. He was writing on one big board and then he broke out a bonus big board. I am excited. We have two games. We have Ravens of events and bucks coming up at
815 at Chargers Cardinals 9
o'clock only on ESPN Plus. Not
a chance. I mean. What? What?
What do you mean? What? Who
decided that? I don't know. Who
decided to put. I like it. ESPN.
You have you have all those
networks you have. Last week,
there was a game on two channels, ABC and ESPN, plus ESPN two with the Mannings.
Yeah.
But you're gonna put a Monday night game on ESPN.
Wow.
Yeah. Okay.
Yep.
All right.
Billy has it.
I know which game I'm watching.
Billy has it.
This one.
We get the good game early, man.
That is a great game.
Baker Mayfield, Lamar Jackson,
Ravens might be the best team in football.
I'm excited for the 815 game.
It's the nine o'clock game I could do without, and I will do without it. How about football. I'm excited for the 815 game. It's
the 9 o'clock game. I can do
without and I will do without
it. How about that? I hope
you're not doing without it.
Well, we'll see because then
you won't see what three of the
BB BB BB picks. Oh, that's right.
You know what? You know what?
That you're right. I stand
corrected and I apologize
because the BBs are worthy of me
staying up late for this game.
Yeah, you're right. Yeah. So So this is a little segment we like to call
BBBBBB, Billy's Big Boards Bet's brought to you by
and we're still waiting on a sponsor,
but we'll get one one day, it's okay.
As you pointed out, there's two games today.
Last time there was two games, we introduced the
BBBBBBB, BB. Yes.
The bonus board. It was very exciting.
So this is the first board, this is for the first game,
this is for the game that's on television.
What's your record?
My record is 16 and nine on the season.
Good.
It could be 16 and eight had I not counted
Mikey's suggestion, but I'm gonna count it
because I put it out there so I'm not gonna say,
hey, this was Mikey's idea, I'm not gonna count that one
against my record.
So last week, without Mikey's suggestion,
we would have been three and oh and so we're three and one,
but that's fine.
We're gonna count it anyways because we put it out there for and oh and so we're three and one but that's fine. We're going to count it anyways because we put
it out there for the people. So, we're 16 and nine. Still
pretty good. Pretty good. So, these are the BBBs for the
first game? These are for the first game. Okay. These are the
games that if I was in a draft king state, I might feel
strongly enough to put in these bets. The first one. Bucks
Ravens, by the way, is the first game. Bucks Ravens is the
first game. Yeah, I've been following along. Well, hold on.
You're going to, Well, hold on.
I'm a professional here.
The first one, Ravens at Bucks.
I'm gonna take the over 50.
Okay, I like it.
They're teams that are known for their defense.
Chris Sims told us last week,
hey, while these are historically known for their defense,
their defenses haven't been great.
So I'm gonna go over on that one.
I'm gonna go over 50 points.
All right, I like that. Ravens bottom three pass defense in the league. Ravens. Look at you.
Getting on the BBBs early, aren't you? That pass defense thing may become a theme later in the
show. Oh, wow. We have about four and a half minutes. I want to get there. Yeah. I might get
to it. Alright. Next one I going to take. I set him up.
Baker, over one and a half touchdown.
He said, did you like the over?
Yeah, yeah.
I like that.
Over one and a half touchdown.
Yeah, people laughed at me last week.
I said, Baker Mayfield's the MVP.
They were laughing at me.
Were they?
Yeah, I don't know why.
I mean, just people.
Now it's obviously Marcus Mariota.
No doubt, comeback player of the year too.
I mean, I'll tell you something about Marcus Mariota. No doubt, comeback player of the year too. I mean,
I'll tell you something about
Marcus Mariota. Jaden Daniels,
that good? Yeah. Right. Are the
commanders better without Jaden?
System quarterback. Has me
wondering. I don't know. The
NFL is so weird, man. It's
unbelievable. Mariota goes
away. This guy was a top three pick in the NFL draft. He goes
away. I had no idea he was
still playing. He Jadon Daniels
gets hurt early yesterday.
Marriota comes in, has the best
game of his career. What is
happening? Anyway. Alright,
here's my third one. One number
two pick with another. Yeah,
you're right. My third one.
Couple of number twos. Cutting
it up. Yep. For the first game,
Derek Henry over 83 and a half
rushing yard. Like it. Like it. He could be the MVP as well. Yeah. and a half rushing yard. Well, I
like it. He could be the MVP as
well. Yeah, he could be. They
don't get that one goes. They
don't give it the running back.
Offensive player there. Yeah.
Yeah. Alright. Now, we're headed
over to the plus ESPN Plus for
game two. That award was put in
just to make the not the guys
who don't win the MVP feel good.
It's a stupid award. No one
cares about it. No one wants
it. I mean, please. Spags is the MVP.
Anyway, go ahead, Billy. Mikey
said before that the Ravens
were bottom three in terms of
defending the pass. Yes. Yes.
Also in the bottom five in
terms of defending the pass,
the Arizona Cardinals. You
teased it before. Unfortunately,
our friend Mike Rollis' brother,
the DC of the Arizona Cardinals,
uh, is having a bit of a rough one this season. So what do we do as good friends?
We're gonna pounce.
Yes.
So I'm gonna take Lad McConkey,
over 52 and a half receiving yard.
That is what I like it.
Yes, that is the late game on ESPN plus.
I am only watching because of Billy's BBBs.
I don't believe you're gonna watch.
Yeah, you're right.
Yeah, so I'm gonna be.
I'll watch the half of the fourth quarter that's left
after the other game ends.
Once the BBBs are settled. I'm done
They might be settled early. Yeah, if they cash early no point in
You do know that you still get the money in your account if you don't watch right you could just wake up and it'll be there
Yeah, you don't have to actually the best feeling ever. It really is. It really is one of the best feelings
I was about to say there's nothing like waking up to free money
They say the wealthy get wealthy by putting their money to work 24 seven,
like 21 while you're sleeping.
That's what we do.
I mean.
No, well, what?
All right, so here's my next one.
Here's number two.
And this one you're gonna probably have to wait
a little bit for in the second game.
Justin Herbert over 27 and a half, pass attempts.
My God.
Did we stay up to the fourth quarter?
Yeah, pass attempts.
Jesus. Wow. Just pass attempts. Yeah. Going Did we stay up to the fourth quarter? Yeah, pass attempts.
Jesus.
Wow.
Just pass attempts.
Yeah.
Going in your bag for that one.
Here's the problem with that one is...
A win for trying.
The problem with that one is I have to stay up to the fourth quarter.
They could take him out of the game or they could just be running out the clock at the
end.
So we're going to have to be throwing a lot.
Okay.
I did a bet like that yesterday with Geno Smith. I needed 24 and a half.
He had 15 and a half through three passes. Wow. The entire
second. Terrible. By the way, two teams, Seattle and the
Falcons. Can't figure them out. Have no idea. Can't figure
them out. I mean, the Falcons, I'm telling you, every single
game, they're down 10 to nothing every game.
Every day should just start down 10. Nothing.
That's so true.
I mean, I can't figure out.
I had a lot of money in the Falcon yesterday.
I can tell.
All right.
You want a fun one?
Here's a fun one.
They were down 10.
Nothing.
I was like, I got him right where I want him.
This is great.
Speak.
Speaking of which, we had a chance to include Pennix
in our May, Daniels, and all the other guys.
Yeah.
Pennix finally got the play.
Yeah, don't look now.
Caleb's winning now.
I mean, we'll see what happens though.
Anyway, go ahead, Billy.
All right, here's my fun one.
All right.
And this is one that could happen at any time.
Little funzy, huh?
Michael Wilson, longest reception over 16 and a half yards.
He has done that in every game but one this season the first game of the season.
Every other game 23 yards 28 yards 22 34 18 over 16 and a half yards for Michael Wilson. All right
on his longest reception. I like the BBBs I do. Yep. I do except the Herbert one I'm going to stay
away from that one. That one's a little tough.
All right, we'll see how it goes.
You're forcing me to watch the game.
Well, no, because here's my thing.
They're the fist in the bottom five
in terms of pass defense.
I feel like they're just gonna be passing them.
Yeah, they wanna run J.K. Dobbins into the ground.
They don't wanna pass it.
Well, we'll see.
Yep.
Aaron Rodgers, you're out of hands.
That's it.
There's not another hand to play,
unless you fire the owner, which would not surprise me. Hasan Reddick's back.
