Starting point is 00:01:49 Mikey. God bless football Fuentes. God bless football 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
Starting point is 00:02:16 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
Starting point is 00:02:36 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.
Starting point is 00:02:48 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
Starting point is 00:03:00 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.
Starting point is 00:03:15 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,
Starting point is 00:03:29 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.
Starting point is 00:03:43 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.
Starting point is 00:03:57 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-
Starting point is 00:04:08 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.
Starting point is 00:04:22 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
Starting point is 00:05:04 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,
Starting point is 00:05:16 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
Starting point is 00:05:29 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
Starting point is 00:05:42 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
Starting point is 00:06:06 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
Starting point is 00:06:30 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
Starting point is 00:06:43 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,
Starting point is 00:07:09 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.
Starting point is 00:07:28 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.
Starting point is 00:07:41 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
Starting point is 00:07:50 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.
Starting point is 00:08:00 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
Starting point is 00:08:12 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.
Starting point is 00:08:29 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.
Starting point is 00:08:45 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.
Starting point is 00:09:00 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.
Starting point is 00:09:11 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.
Starting point is 00:09:22 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.
Starting point is 00:09:37 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.
Starting point is 00:10:08 And I marked those jets games as wins. Of course I did. I did. Oh really? Both of them. Huh? Yeah. Well, congratulations.
Starting point is 00:10:17 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
Starting point is 00:10:33 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
Starting point is 00:11:15 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
Starting point is 00:11:36 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
Starting point is 00:11:50 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
Starting point is 00:12:01 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,
Starting point is 00:12:18 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.
Starting point is 00:12:27 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.
Starting point is 00:12:36 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.
Starting point is 00:12:48 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.
Starting point is 00:13:08 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,
Starting point is 00:13:24 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.
Starting point is 00:13:47 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.
Starting point is 00:14:01 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?
Starting point is 00:14:14 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

Starting point is 00:17:06 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.
Starting point is 00:17:13 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.
Starting point is 00:17:23 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,
Starting point is 00:17:41 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
Starting point is 00:17:57 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.
Starting point is 00:18:11 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.
Starting point is 00:18:29 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,
Starting point is 00:18:52 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.
Starting point is 00:19:08 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.
Starting point is 00:19:23 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,
Starting point is 00:19:39 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.
Starting point is 00:19:48 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.
Starting point is 00:20:01 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
Starting point is 00:20:27 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
Starting point is 00:20:40 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.
Starting point is 00:20:51 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.
Starting point is 00:21:01 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.
Starting point is 00:21:13 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.
Starting point is 00:21:29 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.
Starting point is 00:21:37 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?
Starting point is 00:21:50 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.
Starting point is 00:22:06 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,
Starting point is 00:22:17 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.
Starting point is 00:22:36 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
Starting point is 00:22:54 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
Starting point is 00:23:33 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,
Starting point is 00:23:46 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.
Starting point is 00:23:59 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.
Starting point is 00:24:08 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.
Starting point is 00:24:21 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
Starting point is 00:24:32 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.
Starting point is 00:24:46 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.
Starting point is 00:24:53 Yeah. We talked about this. Sophomore slump for CJ Stroud. Didn't look great. Nico Collins, big winner. Yeah. Big winner. Needs him badly.
Starting point is 00:25:02 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
Starting point is 00:25:22 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.
Starting point is 00:25:37 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.

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
Starting point is 00:27:40 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.
Starting point is 00:27:52 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
Starting point is 00:28:16 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
Starting point is 00:28:34 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.
Starting point is 00:28:46 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.
Starting point is 00:28:57 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.
Starting point is 00:29:08 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
Starting point is 00:29:29 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.
Starting point is 00:30:05 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.
Starting point is 00:30:20 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.
Starting point is 00:30:46 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.
Starting point is 00:31:10 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.
Starting point is 00:31:19 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.
Starting point is 00:31:49 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,
Starting point is 00:32:07 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,
Starting point is 00:32:18 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
Starting point is 00:32:33 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
Starting point is 00:33:00 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.
Starting point is 00:33:31 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
Starting point is 00:33:45 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.
Starting point is 00:34:11 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.
Starting point is 00:34:33 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.
Starting point is 00:34:50 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?
Starting point is 00:35:08 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,
Starting point is 00:35:18 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.
Starting point is 00:35:40 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
Starting point is 00:36:05 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
Starting point is 00:36:18 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
Starting point is 00:36:37 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.
Starting point is 00:37:19 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,
Starting point is 00:37:44 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
Starting point is 00:38:19 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.
Starting point is 00:38:52 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
Starting point is 00:39:09 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.
Starting point is 00:39:30 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
Starting point is 00:39:50 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.
Starting point is 00:40:30 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.
Starting point is 00:40:42 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.
Starting point is 00:41:08 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.
Starting point is 00:41:26 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,
Starting point is 00:41:43 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
Starting point is 00:42:07 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
Starting point is 00:42:16 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.
Starting point is 00:42:29 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
Starting point is 00:42:45 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.
Starting point is 00:43:04 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
Starting point is 00:43:14 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
Starting point is 00:43:29 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.
Starting point is 00:43:44 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.
Starting point is 00:43:55 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.
Starting point is 00:44:09 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
Starting point is 00:44:22 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.
Starting point is 00:44:48 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.
Starting point is 00:45:06 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.
Starting point is 00:45:19 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
Starting point is 00:45:35 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
Starting point is 00:46:28 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.
Starting point is 00:46:45 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.
Starting point is 00:46:53 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
Starting point is 00:47:06 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?
Starting point is 00:47:17 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.
Starting point is 00:47:32 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.
Starting point is 00:47:50 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,
Starting point is 00:48:04 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
Starting point is 00:48:22 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,
Starting point is 00:48:36 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.
Starting point is 00:49:05 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.
Starting point is 00:49:16 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,
Starting point is 00:49:29 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
Starting point is 00:49:48 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.
Starting point is 00:49:59 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.
Starting point is 00:50:11 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
Starting point is 00:50:24 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
Starting point is 00:50:37 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.
Starting point is 00:50:51 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.
Starting point is 00:51:04 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.
Starting point is 00:51:29 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.
Starting point is 00:51:42 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.
Starting point is 00:51:50 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.
Starting point is 00:52:06 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.
Starting point is 00:52:32 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.
Starting point is 00:52:41 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.
Starting point is 00:52:53 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.
Starting point is 00:53:12 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.
Starting point is 00:53:33 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,
Starting point is 00:53:43 unless you fire the owner, which would not surprise me. Hasan Reddick's back. Smirnoff knows there's no eye in football.
