From the director of The Greatest Showman
comes the most original musical ever.
I want to prove I can make it.
Prove to who?
Everyone.
So, the story starts.
Better Man, now playing in select theaters.
God bless football.
Mikey A?
God bless football, Stu Gatz.
Thank you. It's just the two of us. How about that?
Yeah. How about that?
Where's Billy?
Billy's gotta go drop kids off at school.
Really?
I guess.
All right.
James Franklin is one in 18 in his career
versus AP top five teams.
One in 18.
You're not even gonna build up to it.
You're just gonna come dunk on James Franklin bright and early
in the morning.
And you know what?
He deserves it.
He is 18.
Yes.
What in 18?
Let me say that again.
Okay, because suddenly after two playoff wins, he became the
greatest postseason coach in the history of college football
because he was undefeated in the postseason against teams
that had no business being in the postseason. How about that? Okay. And then all of a sudden
he became big game James and they get out to a lead last night. The rare game, by the
way, that starts as a complete clunker and turns into a classic by the end. I mean, unbelievable.
But James Franklin jumps out to the lead and then he does James
Franklin types things and drew. Aller throws a terrible
pass middle of the field late in the game and Notre Dame
wins and Penn State loses and again one and 18 versus the
AP top five ranked teams throughout his career as
someone who sprinkled some
shekels in his draft King account on Notre Dame. I never
doubted you for a second. James Franklin. I never doubted you
for a second that you were going to make sure that you
went back to your your standard of losing big games. Speaking
of dumping some shekels into a it case, you can join us for our listener league
presented by Smirnoff, the world's number one vodka.
Please drink responsibly.
How'd you do last week, Mikey?
Not great.
Not great.
Nope, I had big plans for certain guys
and they just did not.
No, wasn't a good week for me.
Didn't pan out, huh?
Didn't, didn't, Mike Evans was supposed to dominate
that game and he kind of just inched over his 86 yards
or whatever he needed line.
So that was bad.
None of my running backs.
Yeah, it was just a bad week.
I probably finished in the 400s.
All right, well, I was gonna say better, but it's impossible to do worse.
So yeah, and yet I have yet I have.
Yeah, we have a we have another college football semifinal tonight.
Wild card weekend is coming up.
We're going to discuss all of it, of course, with the guys who secured
Josh Allen dot com.
I was going to say Chris Sibs.
And then at the last second, I realized, oh, we have the
guys who secure the domain name, which we discussed on
the Leviton show earlier this week.
We have the guys who have secured the domain name for
Josh Allen.
It's Josh Allen dot com.
We're going to try to pry it away from them.
But Chris is going to join us as well.
Today's episode of God Bless Football is presented by DraftKings DraftKings.
The crown is yours.
So, Mikey Notre Dame,
do you feel like they have based on what you saw last night?
Again, started off as a lousy game, turned into a classic.
Do you think Notre Dame has a realistic chance
against the two teams we're gonna see play tonight,
which is Ohio State and Texas?
Ohio State has suddenly become
the greatest team in the country.
I think both Ohio State and Texas
have a little bit of roller coaster to them.
And the problem is, I will say that if either of those teams,
Ohio State or Texas plays one of their good to perfect games,
Notre Dame doesn't stand a chance. So what if they catch them on one of those
off days,
Notre Dame is is physical enough and they're good enough.
Hopefully they get a little healthier by then to, then, to actually win that game, yes.
So you're saying Ohio State's best is better than Notre Dame's best.
If they both came out and played their best games, their A games, their absolute best games, Ohio State is going to beat Notre Dame.
I think if Ohio State plays their A game, nobody's beating them in that slot.
Texas isn't beating an Ohio State A game, and Notre Dame certainly isn't beating an Ohio State A game.
The Gullicks have to be happy this morning, huh?
I imagine that it was a late night for the well for junior. Mike probably watched that
game on recorded at 3 AM this morning when he got there.
I would say if Gullick if senior merely made it up for the game like he stayed up for the entire game
That's the latest he's been up in a long time. Yeah. Yeah, it was a great game
He probably he watches it at 3 a.m. When he gets up for his for his morning coffee
Yeah, it will listen in Jay listen and James Franklin's defense and it's it's tough to defend a guy
Who's won in 18 versus the AP top five since he started coaching at Penn
State. But in his defense, what Penn State at least proved to me is that they belonged
in college football's final four. They did. They played very, very well. That's an athletic
team played very, very well and had every chance to win that game, especially at the
end. They had chances. But listen, James Franklin didn't fall down and let Notre Dame score a big touchdown at the one point of the game.
You can't fall down and let Notre Dame score a touchdown and James Franklin didn't throw that awful pass in the middle of the field when it was just.
No reason to do that right then, right? Did you feel bad for for Alan?
Right. Did you feel bad for for Alan?
No. You make a bad decision, you move with it.
It happens. Yeah, but he's going to think about that decision
every day for the remainder of his life.
I felt worse for the kid that fell down because your feet got tripped up and you gave up the touchdown.
Aller made a football play and he messed up. Yeah.
I felt great for the rest of the country because for one more
week, we get to see Marcus Freeman.
Chris Sims are the guys who own the domain for Josh Allen.com
next.
So, I want to tell you a story.
I'm serious here.
My wife and my two daughters, they begged me to buy a Peloton.
So I bought a Peloton and then I watched that Peloton sit in my office and stare at me.
So you know what I did one day?
I looked at it and so I decided to get off my ass and I jumped on the Peloton because
no one else was using it and I paid for it.
I mean, so why not?
Then I realized eventually that they bought it for me.
And I gotta tell you, way more challenging than I could have ever imagined.
Peloton coaches are walking the walk. I love the coaches. I do the Grateful Dead one. It's fantastic.
They have a sub three-hour marathon runner, military trained athletes, a former college
basketball player, and so many other well-rounded coaches on their team.
All this experience really shows in their classes which are never short of challenging, especially
for me. So I jumped on it that first time, it was challenging, more challenging than I thought,
then I wanted to beat the bike and so I kept jumping on it and I absolutely love it. I mean,
I'm the only one who uses it, but again, they got it for me. I mean, I had no idea. That's a little
passive aggressive, don't you think? Find your push.
Find your power with Peloton at onepeloton.com.
We are talking to the owners of Josh Allen dot.com because we were discussing on the show.
Todd better get back here because I have questions.
I'm here.
All right, Todd.
Good.
You could stay off to the side.
It's fine.
As long as you can hear me and we can hear you.
We were discussing on the show how disappointed we were in ourselves for not securing certain
domains that have been sold since
For many many many millions of dollars including stuff like birds.com or cars.com How did I not grab that domain? Why did you guys grab the domain Josh Allen comm?
I just you know, I'm a super fan and obviously I study the market
I watched domains and and I own a lot of dot coms.
And so I just knew I fought for this one for several years and finally got the owner to
sell to me. And I've just obviously with Josh, I mean in Buffalo, Josh Yellen is our messiah, right? And with his lucrative contracts, his endorsements,
it's just a great investment for me to have and hold
and wait for the right opportunity to present itself.
How much did you buy it for, if you don't mind me asking?
It's five figure range in the five figures.
OK, and what are you selling it?
Because I'm going to try to buy it from you just so you know, but what are
you what are you trying to sell it for now? Yes. So if you work
for Nike at $1 million, if you work for Pepsi, a million
dollars, if you're, you know, trying to monetize and doing an
endorsement and doing a deal, I'm at 300 K. 300 that wow. If you're Josh Allen. Right. Yeah. Yeah. So we're we're we
do get hits, right? I do get interest and so I'm just
waiting for the right fit. Josh Allen's camp, maybe his
agent, Pepsi or Nike. They're all his major endorsements. So
it's, yeah,
go ahead and finish up. I want to hear this. Yeah. So it's
plausible that, you know, I'll get the call or do a deal with
one of these giants, right? That are already sponsoring him.
Right. Well, since you're good at this, and you do this, and
you study this, I'm assuming you have all kind of the Josh Allen,
joshallent12.com. Do you have all those you have everything
secured?
So Josh is forced to buy it from you if indeed he wants to.
100%, yeah.
So I also own, so we call him the alien, Josh Alien.
So I own joshalien.com.
You're smart, yeah, you're smart.
I own Josh Allen Madden Football, right?
Because he's the face of Madden football now.
So I own that as well, right?
So maybe, you know, the Madden people call me,
hey, they want to monetize it and promote the Josh domain.
So if you go, you segue over to Patrick Mahomes,
it's Adidas, it's an Adidas platform.
So if we go to patrickmahomes.com,
he's selling millions of dollars in Adidas merchandise,
right? Tom Brady, right? TB12, he's selling all of his merch and his endorsements, his speaking
engagements. So these guys monetize these at a very high level. So I knew after I fought for this
for several years, I never give up. I never give up. Right. If I want
something and I know it's going to have a good payoff, I'll, I'll be white on rice till
I get it.
So I have two questions. The first one is for Stu gots. Did you think that Josh Allen's
number was 12? And that's why you said Josh Allen,
17, I made a mistake. I made a mistake. I made a mistake. Where he's at. For those of you that
Todd got caught it. We're being so polite. I appreciate that.
I'm not going to be as polite. There's a cardboard cutout of
Josh Allen right behind Todd's business partner, but Todd was
standing in the way of it. Okay. So I was thinking TB 12 to
be honest with you. Go ahead. What's your next question?
All right. Here's my next question. What would Josh Allen suppose Josh, you're welcome. Suppose
Josh Allen calls me and be like, listen, I'm not going to give you the 300 K, but I got
two Superbowl tickets. I got a flight out there. I got a hotel. Are we, is there any
kind of trade we're talking about here? Sign Jersey with it and the whole bit. Yeah, we'll give you a 10,000 off and a check for two.
I like them. I like them a lot. It's not worth it.
Oh, my. So you listen, you have been sure that if Josh Allen wants a domain that he has to go through you guys to get said domain. Percent. Yeah, yeah. Wow. 100%.
Yeah.
So if you go to GoDaddy, you can go to the GoDaddy platform and you punch in JoshAlan.com,
you'll see the evaluation on GoDaddy.
It's like a million ninety thousand.
Wow.
That's, that's, that's the price on GoDaddy.
Right.
Ron, how you feeling about all this?
I love it.
What we're looking to sell this for is to kind of use some seed funding for a new company
product that we're putting out, it's fentanyl testing ships.
We want to make them readily available at your corner stores, Bodega.
So it's not like, Todd's selling this, he's going to buy a Lamborghini tomorrow with it. You know, we're going to put this to really good work, save a lot of
lives with high reduction tools.
Oh, that's a good job by you guys.
I am.
Well, I'm happy to hear you're doing something productive other
than securing domain names.
Okay.
You guys are helping people.
So what if I objected?
Yeah.
What if I offered you 250 K today?
What would you say to me?
With Super Bowl tickets in a signed autographed jersey from Josh Allen?
Yeah.
Okay, then we got a deal.
Really? Okay, what if we put you in a room with Josh Allen?
That's all I do is I just put you in a room with Josh Allen. What do you think?
I'm good. What other domains do you own? I've got some,
this is just us talking, right? Yes. Yeah. No one's listening. Okay. Yeah. I've got some
VIPs. I've got some high level people. I have a list. I have a big list, but at the end
of the day, the highest value one that I have is Josh,
right?
There's nothing that's going to beat his evaluation then out of my entire portfolio.
I think you guys find this funny too.
This is, I started working with Todd, what this summer and he's made a substantial amount
of money selling phone numbers.
Yeah.
It's all phone numbers too.
What?
Yeah. Dude, I got a lesson in this and I'm like, cell phone numbers too. What? Yeah. Dude,
I got a lesson in this and I'm like, dude, I got to start doing this. So I have hundreds of phone
numbers, vanity numbers, right? You know, I sell them to attorneys, high level companies. So I've
been brokering phone numbers and domains for a long time. And, you know, again, you have to buy,
right? And you got to find who's the best partner
and we're good match, right?
So all the ubiquitous advertising with lawyers, right?
Lawyers are lawyers, right?
The really good ones are good marketers.
They're not any better lawyer than others, but they know how to catch the fish, right?
And that's where a good domain and or a good phone number comes into play.
So I can get like 716 or, you know, all eights,
we call those repeaters 444, 4444.
I get a hundred K for those, right?
Yeah, yeah, a hundred percent, a hundred percent.
So this is, I've been doing this for, you know,
20 years, right? And I've got a lot of
networking partners. So we know how to dig, we know how to break legs, we know how to twist arms,
and we know how to make deals happen. But my biggest baby is Josh, right? So in that's where
we're just looking for a good partner in or a good relationship. We wanted to go into the right hands.
It seems like you're looking to extort him.
If we're gonna be honest,
it seems like you're looking just to get money
from him not a partnership.
And some Super Bowl tickets.
No, no, it's plausible.
So here on the other end,
I can monetize the shit out of this site
just by selling merchandise, right?
Yeah. So that's option B.
Wow. And I don't have to, I can either A,
pay the NFL their licensing and sell millions off of this mark every month, right? Or I can go plan
B and sell generic football stuff and still do super well. In Buffalo, anything that has Josh Yellen, it flies off the shelves, right?
The amount of merchandise that they sell in this market is astronomical.
Every store you go to, every car you see, something has either Buffalo Bills or Josh
Yellen on it.
Wow.
I can't believe, like, how's the guy, do you speak to the guy that you bought it from?
Because he, I mean, he, he gave it up for a cheap price.
Yeah.
So the, this was, you know, I've had it for a few years now, but I do get hits, right?
I've had lots of different brokers call me.
I even had Josh Allen.
He's not the Josh Allen, but another Josh Allen that wanted to buy
it. And you know, we were just too far apart.
You had to be like, was he pretending to be Josh Allen? What was he doing?
No, no, no, just a guy named Josh Allen, who's in media marketing. And he goes, yeah, that
was my domain. And I'm like, yeah, that's it's my domain. And, you know. You're a badass. Yeah, it's real estate, man.
It's real estate, right?
Digital real estate.
But yeah, the right deal comes along.
I'll do business.
How do you get around cyber-squatting laws?
You'll have to check with your attorney on that.
But at the end of the day, it's just, it's real estate.
I can do, I own it.
That's not really a, it's just an item that I own, right?
So I'm not infringing on Josh Allen or I don't have his picture.
I'm not monetizing it as I am Josh Allen's representative or agent.
I just at this point possessed it for the deal.
Now, if Josh just won a Superbowl,
like he won a Superbowl, you guys are big Bills fans,
you love Josh Allen, he is God up there.
If he won a Superbowl and called you the next day
and said, hey, listen, I won you a Superbowl,
it's miserable and Buffalo.
I want the domain name joshallan.com.
I made you happy.
The happiest you've ever been as a sports fan.
I want that thing for free.
Would you give it to them?
No, now the price goes up to 2 million
because the valuation has now doubled.
I don't know, so guys, if you noticed,
it went from 200,000 yesterday to I reached out.
I was like, hey, you guys wanna talk?
And this morning was 300,000.
So the price fluctuates depending on activity, I think.
These guys are businessmen.
They don't care.
They're assassins, man.
It's the buzz, right?
So the stock rises every single day.
The MVP is knocking on the door, right?
So as the buzz continues to grow, so does the price.
But that's still a
fire sale and a discounted price compared to the million dollar listing on GoDaddy.
How much did the evaluation get hurt when Josh Allen of the Jaguars started by going,
going by Josh Fiennes Allen? Did you lose like half your market there?
Yeah. No, no. You mean the other Josh Allen? The other Josh Allen. Well, you lost one of the two big there? Yeah. No. You mean the other Josh Allen?
The other Josh Allen.
Well, you lost one of the two big ones, yeah.
Yeah, he changed his name, right?
He added his, yeah.
Could you get Josh Hines Allen?
Is it up?
Is it available?
No, it's, yeah.
Nothing I can do.
Maybe Josh Hines Allen 12, Stu Gotts?
Oh, maybe.
Todd, are you looking for a business partner?
I mean.
It's, we're open to Well, maybe. Todd, are you looking for a business partner? I mean. We're open to discussions, yes.
Wow, wow.
I mean, I can help you.
You help me, I'll help you.
You know what I'm saying?
Can I make a suggestion for you guys?
So, Josh, Josh, we've seen, yeah, you too, Stugots.
Because I'm part of their company.
Josh, we saw, is engaged.
Congratulations to Josh and Haley.
Now, JoshAllen Allen comm is seemingly unavailable
So what if as a result Josh Allen decides to change his last name to Josh Steinfeld?
Have you decided to lock that?
We already have it. I guess we need to take to that.
Yes.
This is why you need a billion astugots in your business.
The idea man.
This is why you need us.
I got the N1 too.
Oh you do?
Like Ron, are you guys constantly scouting out like what's going to be next?
What hasn't been taken? What's going to be next?
What you think is going to be popular? Just grabbing domain?
When Todd told me that this is what he did
and he was making all this money,
I'm like, yeah, I'm gonna start going to like
high school football games and like,
yeah, like Texas and just start getting like
all of these domains for these kids.
What's the domain that you bought
and then eventually sold?
Like what deal made you the most money
in terms of a domain?
Probably the attorneys that I've helped over the years.
Explain that. You see a law firm,
you grab their domain name,
and then they come calling eventually to buy it from you.
Yeah. Typically, it'll happen like they'll research or researchers search it out and then they'll come to me and
then we'll broker and negotiate a deal right? Yeah. Uh and then
also I'll do the cold calling as well right with the inventory.
I'll see what's a good deal. Acquire it and then you know
offer my assistance. Do you guys have super wildcardweekend.com?
Have you?
Ooh.
Well.
I gotta go to the bathroom.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I love Todd.
I mean, he's my new business partner.
What's the most money you've made on a single deal?
Is that an insensitive question?
Can you share that with us?
Six figures.
They're all six figures.
Every deal is, you're making six figures. I do
them for nickels and dimes and 20s and 30s. Right. I have
several 7500. Are you surprised? Josh? Are you surprised Josh
Allen hasn't sold yet? Um, I'm not. I could have sold it just
that the numbers aren't there yet. Right. So I have a
minimum, right? And basically, if you look on the site, that's where I want to be.
I'm hopeful Nike or one of the other big guys come and pay the seven figures. That's the want
and the wish. But at the end of the day, we have a very impactful product and startup that we're doing.
And that's where I'm looking to liquidate
to take this funding for the startup
and then do something super impactful with the epidemic,
with the harmful opioid crisis, right?
So I've been working on that for about 15 months.
I developed the product,
marketed it, and now we're just doing, we want to go Q1 with our first launch. And I believe wholeheartedly this is going to be massive, right? It's going to be a massive endeavor.
The good news about this product is it's a win-win, right? I think all of us have been touched
is it's a win-win, right? I think all of us have been touched by life of loss
or the struggles of opioid addiction.
And me, myself, my personal story,
I'm a recovered addict, and you know, 20 years ago, right?
But I also have six kids, right?
My friends have lost their sons, right?
We've all known or know the epidemic
of over a hundred thousand people, Americans dying on an annual basis.
So back when I was a kid, the AIDS epidemic came in. And there were two things you did or didn't do.
It was A, abstain from sex or use a condom. So now today, we can't just use drugs recreationally.
Our kids can't use drugs. Nobody should use drugs.
So either A, abstain from drugs or use responsibly. And this is what I want to do is bring the testing
mainstream into the retail markets, your convenience stores, your gas stations. A cup of coffee is $3.
Here's a test strip. It's three bucks. Test? Test it before you ingest it, Fenex
it or forget it, right? This is the product that I believe I've been called to do. And
this is why I do all these maniacal things to get to my main objective. And, but yeah,
Fenex is the product that I've developed. And that's what my biggest energy is targeting.
I like it guys.
So essentially the domain money,
it's really money to fund something
that's way more important.
Absolutely, 100%.
100%.
Who do you like, Chargers or Texans?
Yeah, good question.
Chargers, Texans guys, who you liking that, Kim?
You like the Chargers, Ronnie?
The Chargers, Texans for sure.
Okay, Bill, you're gonna ask them all the games, aren't you?
Any domains on the Chargers that we should be aware of
or the Texans?
Yeah, I think I have her at justinherbert.com.
CJstroud.com, anything like that?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yes, yes. Dude, you just made new competition here, man. Yeah, didstroud.com, anything like that.
You just made new competition here, man. Yeah. Did you, well, hold on.
Did you swipe up to fungigs.com when he was in town?
One deal at a time. One deal at a time.
Yep. Listen, uh, there's no competition.
You can either bring us in or we're going to end your company.
So it's up to you, whatever you want to do. Like, you know, what do you think?
I love it.
How many transactions,
how many transactions do you guys make like on an average?
Like what's a work week like for you guys?
You're just like looking up numbers and domains or you making sales.
Cause like you just have to wait around for the right sales more or less.
Right?
Yeah. Yeah. The, um, like I said, I have a wide, wide inventory, right?
It's more than just sports and with the phone numbers in or the digital assets.
So but you know, I also do other I have other investments in other other things that I'm
involved with.
Interesting.
Ravens.
Yeah, Steelers Ravens.
What do you like there, guys?
Yes, I want that's where you win.
Really? I mean, you want to see others to win, right?
Because you want to because you don't want to see.
Yeah, you don't want to see Lamar Jackson. Right.
So if the Steelers won, they would go to Kansas City
and then you would get the you would get the Chargers in that scenario.
Yeah. Well, like I said, man, last people, I don't want to see Baltimore again.
I don't want to see Derek Henry again. I mean, listen, you just have to beat Lamar Jackson.
And then once you've done that, go to Kansas City and be Patrick Mahomes. You guys got this. I mean,
we're on the same page. How much do you guys dislike Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs?
Not at all. I admire him. He's he's
he's amazing. He's got dang Patrick Mahomes. But it's it's Josh's time, right? It's it's time for Josh to wear the crown.
Yeah. What happens to the value of the domain if Josh Allen gets
bounced out in the second round of the playoffs?
Well, then it we give a 5% discount.
Okay.
Really?
Is that right?
What's the number?
If someone called you right now and gave you a number, what's the number?
As in a cash deal?
Yeah, that you can't say no to, right?
Yeah, non-traceable.
Yeah, no tickets, no nothing, no meetings with Josh, nothing.
Just straight, here's the cash, give me that domain.
Yeah, it's 250.
250.
What if it was in a briefcase though?
But if it was in a briefcase.
Yeah, it was just 225 in a briefcase.
Are we talking Louis Vuitton, Coach?
What type of briefcase would it be?
You get to pick.
You pick, yeah, uh, you pick.
Yeah, it's, it's on us.

What if he gave you $200,000 worth of gambling advice?
Oh, and it's, and it's really could be worth more depending on how much you gamble.
It could be a million dollars worth of gambling advice just for a website.
I heard some sarcasm about where do I sign Todd? That's not a great idea. Generational love for some power life picks. I don't know
man. It sounds a Tisi. I think if we just had Ron on this deal would be done already.
We would have Josh Allen. Yeah. And he was like, no deals, no deals. He talked
to me. I'm like, all right. Yeah. Well, listen, now I know the guy, if I'm serious about this,
I know who I got to call and it's Ron. It's not Todd. Okay. You got it over, man. So he's
a pushover. Yes. Yes. All right, guys. I look forward to getting into business with you

I don't know.
I would prefer him to go to the Raiders than to the Patriots.
Hey, he's Mike Raible.
He was 11 and like 17.
Vince Lombardi is out there. Like Billy. It's Mike Vrabel. He was 11 and like 17.
Vince Lombardi is out there.
Billy, Billy, when you see what else is out there,
when you see what else is out there, you kill for Vrabel.
Well, hold on. Let's get Sims involved here.
Sims is saying that we're treating Mike Vrabel like Vince Lombardi.
What are your thoughts?
Well, I'm a big fan of Mike Vrabel. I mean, I'm not ready to compare him to Vincent Bardy
quite yet, but I think Mike Vrabel is a phenomenal head coach. I do. I mean, one, I think he's
about as close as you're going to get in football to like Parcells and Belichick with that type
of attitude. And I think he's actually got a little more parcels in him in a lot of ways where he can be like snarky and like charming to the media at the same time a little
bit that way. He's very hands on with his coaching and what he does on the football
field during practice. He's a really good motivator. He's cutting edge with things he
does like training in the off season.
And yeah, I mean, look at what there was there in Tennessee.
I mean, he, he went as a number one seed in the AFC playoffs with a team that set the record for the most injuries in a season.
And like had to sign all these people all they went to the AFC championship game with like, let's with the Ryan Tannehill who couldn't play, right?
Remember now everybody told me he couldn't play until they saw him playing.
And then they went, Oh, he can play. And then, but we,
we don't want to give Mike Vrabel the like credit for bringing him along a
little bit. So yeah, I'm a big fan of Vrabel.
I think he is the best candidate out there. No doubt for me,
but he's not Vince Lombardi.. But he's not Vince Lombardi.
No, he's not Vince Lombardi.
Not Vince Lombardi, he's not Bill Belichick.
Not exactly.
Sims, you headed to Texas?
What's going on here?
Got the whole family?
Yep, whole family.
Got like a 330 flight today.
Pumped about it.
I mean, I really am.
I got the kids are excited.
My wife was like kind of poo
pooing it there for a little bit, giving me this whole spiel. Like you're the only one
that wants to go. Why are we going to this? And my kids like walked in the room in the
middle of that and they were like, no, no, we want to go. My son was like, Oh, I'm pumped.
And my daughter was like, yeah, I'm excited, mom. I don't know what you're talking about.
So she finally came to her senses because I mean,
we were, if she said it again last night, I was going to go stay the hell home. We,
we got plenty of other people. I want to come. I'm wondering why she isn't staying home.
Why do we need to, if she pulls that bulls**t today, she's staying at home. We got plenty
of people want to come to the game right here. Ready? I'll have a a flight. I'll meet you in flight. Same flight. Same flight.
Where are we meeting up?
Extra room?
What else is there?
No, Stu Gotz, I could deal with you and Mikey A.
Just Billy.
I won't take up more than half our bed.
Our bed.
You can sleep outside on the floor. Where where a dog is on like the mat outside the
door. That sounds good.
So why is your wife going? Is she going to like she wants to be with the family? What
is the deal?
I guess. I guess she feels guilted into it now. But yeah, now I don't even know. I don't
know why she's going now, but we got her going, you know, like she was like giving me this whole spiel. Like when they won, you just said, let's make like, I want to go,
let's go. Like, and she's a loud mouth, North Jersey woman who never like doesn't share
her opinion. And I was like, why didn't you tell me when I said that, that you really
don't want to go like, just tell me that. Why are you telling me two nights before we're
going that you don't want to do this? So
we'll see yesterday. She said, sorry, my kids, I think in a
lot of ways were a little bit like, wow, hey, hey, dad, we're
your this is a quote from my son. Hey, dad, we're your
buddies. We'll have fun without her. Don't worry. And I think my
daughter wants me to bring her boyfriend and my son likes that too.
So they're willing to ditch mom and leave her ass for the boyfriend.
Of course.
Yeah.
Did you throw out the idea of uncle Billy going?
No, I did not.
I did not.
No, I did not.
Do you have Sims's kids calling you uncle Billy?
Is that they're probably close to my age on this.
What's this cool hat you got on today? This hat?
You like this hat?
You want me to send you one?
He's talking to Mikey A.
Well, it depends on what I'm doing.
No, I'm talking about yours, Billy.
What is it?
I'm talking about Billy's hat.
Billy's hat is cool.
It is cool.
This is a hat that I got.
Is this a, you know, food influence?
Is that a K?
No, it's an M.
It's an M, yeah.
Oh, that's an M. Okay, okay.
Yeah.
All right, so some Marlins. All right. Cool
No, it's not it's not more this guy. Mr. Eats. He goes around he reviews some food. Send me a hat
I said, hey cool. Nice. Thanks. Okay, cool. All right. Yeah, you're such a you want one. I'll send you one
You're easy. I know you know you just make it easy
You just send send me something Chris. I'll put it on whatever it is. You're kind of a
You just make it easy. Just send me send me something Chris. I'll put it on whatever it is. You're kind of a
Horror it sounds like you just anything for merchandise or anything
If the price is right, yeah
Call it our bed Exactly right sleep with me just to go to the game
I mean cheese tells you how easy is what I'm saying. I think send me whatever you want me to wear
We'll wear it. Yes. I think if you decided to do this for a living,
you decided on being a whore, Chris.
We are.
Yeah, yeah, you're right.
How do you feel about your chances against Ohio State?
Because it's funny, Ohio State, everyone the fire, Ryan Day,
and now the most talented team in the country,
the favorite to win the national championship.
Right.
Is it not kind of funny how quickly it
like turned in three weeks? Like literally like,
oh, they're the most overrated overhyped team ever to literally like, I want to be like SpongeBob
14, 14 days later. They're the best team we've ever seen. I don't know if anybody can beat them.
I mean, they're dangerous. They're talented as hell. I know that they're the most talented team
in college football, but not by so much that they can just like
walk through this game against Texas. RD is real. I think RD
will pose problems for them and their defense is very good,
but they play a style and then I think that it'll fit us being
able to throw the football down the field. They're pretty
aggressive. They'll play man-to-man on the outside. They'll do stuff like that. And if we have, you know, number seven bond, totally healthy,
you better be careful about playing us totally man-to-man like that. We got guys in a system
and a quarterback that certainly can make some big plays down the field. So yeah, of course,
I give us our give ourselves a chance to win this game. Chris, is Steve Sarkisian a coach you could see coaching in the NFL?
I think yes.
I think he's one of the few that could probably make that crossover.
One, I mean, he's he's a quarterback guy.
He's an offensive guy.
He's had a little history in the NFL.
Of course, he worked for Nick Saban, which is as close as you're going to get in the
college football level to NFL game planning and detail and preparation.
I look at it and go, he's always got
a few little new wrinkles and game plan ideas.
So I do think he has that capability.
Yes, I mean, it's not easy, as you know.
But yeah, offensive game plan designer who's creative
and knows how to kind of coexist and bring a quarterback along.
I think that's always going to be fancied in the NFL.
And yeah, I think he is on a short list of guys that could actually get that done.
What do you make of these reports that Quinn Ewers might stay in college for a fifth year, not at Texas, somewhere else,
somewhere in the neighborhood of six to ten million dollars as opposed to going to the NFL?
Yeah, it's crazy. I would actually, I would do that if I was him.
Yeah.
I had this conversation a little bit with, I think,
Dan Patrick about two weeks ago.
And that's what I expected.
They're going to Arch Manning next year.
That is not an option.
They are super excited about what Arch Manning could be.
And they're giving you the signals that they think they can be way greater than they are even now with Arch Manning could be. And they're giving you the signals
that they think they can be way greater than they are even now
with Arch Manning at quarterback if he gets time to play
and gets the reps and all that.
Ewers, I think if he was like, oh, wait, the NFL views me
as a fringe first rounder or maybe a second rounder,
I'd go, go, see you later.
But the NFL doesn't view him like that.
He's got to make a few more people believers. Just like you said, again, like you saw but the NFL doesn't view him like that. He's got to he's got
to make a few more people believers just like you said again like you saw in the
Arizona State game there's just a few throws and a few plays every game where
you just go wait you're too good to miss that throw or lob the ball up to let
somebody knock it down I think he needs to go one more year and kind of work on
some things to improve himself which will will then improve his stock, you know, in the NFL eyes or the people
that are important in the NFL eyes.
Chris, there are reports that I think five or six teams have reached out to Bill
Belichick. Belichick is at North Carolina.
Diana Racini reported that he's staying at North Carolina, at least for now.
You know Belichick very well.
Is Belichick going to give Carolina at least one season?
I think so.
I would expect that.
But I would still be if I'm like, you know, the the dean at North Carolina
or whatever, I'd be a little worried right now. I would be.
You know, I think Bill Belichick first off was
I think he panicked.
That would be the first thing.
I think he wanted to know or have a deal kind of in place,
right?
Like, wink, wink, we're going to hire you.
We're going to go through the interview process
and do all the things that we need to do.
But when it's all said and done, we'll be wink, wink,
back to you and we're going to hire Bill Belichick.
He never got that.
So I think because of that, he panicked a little bit
and went to college football.
But within that, anybody that knows him or has ever
been around him, we all question whether he
fits college football for a lot of reasons.
I know you and I, we've all discussed this a little bit.
But the recruiting, dealing with Jimmy and Johnny's mom,
dealing with the fact Johnny's mom, dealing with
the fact that he's going to have to game plan way more simple than he ever has in his life.
Is he going to be mentally intrigued by that? Like, right? Is that going to keep him going
when he has to play like, Oh, I got to play cover four for nine out of the 10 next snaps
here because I got young kids who didn't get enough reps and I can't even do some of the crazy awesome stuff that I can really do. So there's that aspect
and all of that and let alone relating to young kids and a kid that's
different than back in the old days when he grew up or anything like that. You'll
hear Brady and Gronk, none of them thought he would do this or be able to
coexist in a college environment. So that would scare me.
And yeah, if you made me bet, I would say it's one and done.
And then he hands it over to Stephen Belichick to become the head coach.
And then he tries to find a spot.
But I still would be scared right now because $10 million is chump change to any owner who
wants to buy him out.
$10 million is chump change to Bill Belichick. I mean,
Bill Belichick is swimming in it. He's got more money than he knows what to do with.
So that means nothing, I think, in the long run, other than that his reputation will take
a big hit if he leaves right now.
I think the job he wants, if there's an NFL job he wants to punctuate his career with,
it would be the New York Giants, right?
I mean, I think that would be his spot for
sure, but I don't know if the Giants would be the place I'd want to go to right now if I'm
Bill Belichick, just because the Giants I think is a project, right? And I mean, we know they're
keeping their coach and their GM anyways, but like if you heard anything Michael Lombardi,
who's close to Belichick say, right, there's the jobs this year are
not viewed as that great, right? Usually when you have seven or eight job openings, there's
one or two that you look at and go, that team's pretty damn good. The coach was just horrible
there and was messing it up. I'd like to take over that team. I think Chicago was that team
in this hiring cycle. I think Bill was trying to get to Chicago because of that.
Chicago is really ready.
You just need another offensive lineman or two, maybe one more defensive playmaker and
you go, okay, we're pretty good.
And now let's just bring this rookie quarterback along.
I also think that's why Tampa was on his radar in a big way because there was tot holes,
maybe retires and gets out and he's looking at Tampa going, they got a lot of stuff that works down there.
Everything else is a little bit of a project or unknown,
but I feel like to your point though,
if all was equal, yeah,
I still think the Giants are a very special place to him
and in his heart.
The only thing I'll say about that Chicago job is you have
to deal with Jordan Love, the Vikings,
and Dan Campbell and Jared Goff in the next 10 years.
You know? I know, I know you're right.
That's a tough thing to do.
It's like, you know, I was kind of saying those same things with like Sean Payton and
Jim Harbaugh. Like, are you sure you want to go to the AFC West and deal with Andy Reid and
Patrick Mahomes? Right. But sometimes you just got to take the best situation available and go,
okay, this is this allows me to be my best. And now let's see if I can compete and beat the best situation available and go, okay, this this allows me to be my best.
And now let's see if I can compete and beat the best at my
best.
And you know, that's sometimes all it all it boils down to.
Chris looking at the playoffs this weekend, obviously, you
know, every matchup is difficult.
But is there a team you want to see more than the Texans at
this moment?
That seems like the team that if you get your choice
in the first round, especially if you're going on the road,
Houston seems like a winnable game for the Chargers.
Yes, agreed.
I mean, Houston, if they're not in the AFC South,
are they even in the playoffs?
I mean, I don't know.
They haven't played like a playoff football team
the last 10 or 11 weeks.
I mean, got off to a hard, hot start.
And what are they over the last 11 games?
I might be off by or something like they're five and six.
Right? Something like that.
It's nothing special.
We've got offensive concerns, right?
Everybody wants to blame CJ Stroud, which is stupid.
When I watch CJ Stroud, he still hits every open throw.
He still plays at a high level.
There just ain't much there for him to do.
They can't protect. They have long developing pass plays down the field. And that doesn't make
sense when you can't protect, right? I mean, that makes no sense. You know, their running
game is iffy, it's average at best. The defense has got some talent. It does. But you worry
about it where, okay, they don't do a ton on defense, two of their greatest assets are
their pass rushers. And I think that gets wiped out a little bit in this game because
Rashaun Slater and Joe Walt are damn good tackles. So they're not going to be like,
Oh, we got to help with a tight end or a back in these situations. They're going to feel
good about those matchups. And because they're a little predictable on defense Houston. Yeah.
I think Jim Harbaugh and Greg Roman will have some plays that'll screw them for you know
lack of a better way to say it. I took the Chargers to win
twenty-four to seventeen. I don't have faith in Houston.
Yeah, they've been going the wrong way for a long time here.
PFT with Mike Florio every day on Peacock, the Unbuttoned
Podcast, Football Night in America. Chris Simms is with us
here on God Bless Football. What's the game you're most
excited for this weekend? Oh, I think it's.
The Packers Eagles game has, I think, the biggest potential to be special
just because I think the Packers are one of the few teams in football
that will never be physically outclassed by a team like the Eagles,
the Lions, the Chiefs, the Ravens,
they can hang right in there with them, right? The big question is, is Jordan Love, his health,
the fact that he hasn't played that well, the fact that they're going into the playoffs
after losing to Chicago and they were trying to win that game last week, and the Eagles
are going to be a fresh football team, you know, other than Jalen Hurts, like he hasn't
played and he's just about to get out of concussion protocol.
That's your only concern there.
But that game has a chance.
I'm taking the Eagles, right?
But I still think there's a lot of heavy hitters on the field.
Bothers me in Green Bay.
They have no Christian Watson, right?
Romeo Dobbs has been going through some stuff.
Jordan Love, of course, not at his best.
That worries me a little bit as far as Green Bay is concerned. If the Eagles
happen to lose this game, is there a chance Nick Sirianni
gets fired afterwards? I think that it could be a real
possibility. Like my workmate Mike Florio, who you just
talked about in PFT, I think he thinks there's a chance. A
team that talented, if they go out one and done, there could be trouble. He also thinks there's a chance. A team that talented, if they go out one and done,
there could be trouble.
He also thinks there's a chance Baltimore Ravens,
like if they go one and done with this team,
Harbaugh could be in trouble.
If it looks bad against, and let's say vice versa,
the Baltimore dominates Pittsburgh.
He has a thought, and usually Mike, when he has a thought,
he's getting inklings from somewhere, that he thinks that Tomlin could be in trouble too. So, you know, we
got some playoff teams here that certainly that could have some drama if things don't
go the right way this weekend.
You know, the horrible one is interesting because he kind of skates by he's won two
playoff games in the last decade and he's had the two time MVP on his roster.
That's what I think where it might come to a head if they disappoint here, right?
I don't expect them to.
I'm taking them to beat the Steelers.
I think the Steelers are going like this and the Ravens are going like this right now.
I expect them to control the game.
I picked Ravens 35 to 20.
So if it goes as expected, he'll be okay.
But yeah, I think that what you're saying,
the Ravens fans know that.
And that's why, you know, every few years,
you kind of hear like a rumbling of, I don't know,
is John Harbaugh still gonna be the head coach
of the Ravens?
And I think it's kind of the things you're alluding to
that, you know, rubbed some people the wrong way
in that fan base.
Chris, what's wrong with the Steelers?
They're on this giant skid and there's no big injury or something where you could point to and go. Oh, well, they lost that guy and that's why they're not doing it
Yeah, I think that
People figured out how Russell Wilson led Pittsburgh Steelers want to play football a little bit
The one thing you see with Russell Wilson and watching back even the Ravens game the last one they played played, which was 34-17 Ravens, and it was closer than that. It was a misleading score. But,
you know, Wilson's made some mistakes lately. Wilson's definitely turned down some completions.
Middle of the field is still an issue with Russell Wilson. It's an issue. And if there's
an advantage to have in this matchup, Friar moved down the middle against Roquan Smith.
There was people open down the middle in the last matchup against the Ravens. He's reluctant to throw the ball into those
windows. I don't know if it's because he's shorter and he can't see or if he's just very protective
of the ball, but he's going to have to be a little more aggressive in this one. I think too, the other
thing you start to realize is that, you know, when they don't have George Pickens and he's not
focused and he or he's dropping the ball or talking too much.
You can see that they're just not the same offense.
There's nobody that scares you.
So I think it's a little bit of all of that.
Uh, and then the defense is good, but it's not great.
I think that's probably the big thing.
I look there.
I'm expecting Baltimore to kind of control this game.
Mikey, a like jump off to a big lead and then kind of take the foot off
the gas pedal.
And Pittsburgh kind of comes back
to make it look respectable.
But I don't think they're in the same class as the Baltimore
Bravens right now.
Chris, how big a loss was it for the Vikings
to lose in week 18 the way they did?
Not just losing the one seed in home field,
but to be dominated by the
team that you're ultimately gonna have to go through to get to the Super Bowl
yeah I get you there right now where I where I think I'll fight back on you a
little bit is the word dominate right because the score looks dominant I
understand that it does but let's not forget Sam Donald missed a lot of throws
a lot of throws a lot of reads right A lot of throws, a lot of reads, right? You might have saw some on
special media. Right. There was guys where you go, he's the
first read. He's wide open, but he's already like, he was
jittery and he was already moving to somebody else. And
it's like, wait, wait, the second guy's not even where he
needs to be yet because you got off the first guy who's wide
open for a touchdown. Just throw it. So yeah, he didn't play good. But Kevin O'Connell will be able to say it that way. Now, you
know, they had four consecutive drives where three of them, they were like inside the five
yard line and one of them, they were at the eight yard line and they got two field goals
out of those four drives. That was it. That was it. The other two drives inside the five
and came away with zero points
He's gonna be able to sell to his team look if Sam makes this thrower
Hey, we've seen Sam make this read if we play them again this game ain't 31 to 9
Their defense played well for the better part of the football game. So like O'Connell said this on Monday He said we can't forget that we won nine in a row and we were really good
We didn't play our best
last night and we messed up. And that's what he's gonna have
to kind of sell and beat into the brain of his football team.
Thirty-one to nine was misleading. I think that game
was closer than that and they certainly blew some
opportunities to put some pressure on Detroit early in the
football game and make it be a little bit of a different
football game in general. Chris, after Lamar Jackson, who has
the most amount of pressure on them headed into the postseason?
I think it's Josh Allen.
So do I.
I think they're kind of in the same boat when I look at it that way.
Right? Like Lamar Jackson is, for as great as he is, what is it so far?
Is it two playoff wins? Or we had two?
Yeah, I think so.
So, I mean, that's kind of remarkable for a guy
that's the two-time league MVP,
maybe about to be the third one,
like Mikey Ye was just talking about,
or you were talking about with the hardball stuff,
and we've only won two games.
So there's a lot of pressure on him,
but Josh Allen has the same amount of pressure,
and it might not just be about winning the big it might not be winning playoff games
But it's like can you get to the can you get to the championship? Can you get to the Super Bowl?
Can you get there that way? But I think those two are the two that are under the most pressure. They're so talented
There is talented as we've ever seen in football. They're all-time greats
talented as we've ever seen in football. They're all time greats. They're just missing this part of you know their
resume to say playoff big wins and all that type of stuff and
that's why there's a lot of pressure on him. So he has an
opportunity here since because you know this he has an
opportunity to erase all the demons. He could be Tomlin in
the first round. He can go to Buffalo take out Josh Allen in
the second round. You can go to Kansas City and take out my
homes in the AMC championship game just to get to the Super Bowl.
That's right. And that's what Josh Allen's saying.
He's going, I just got to beat Sean Payton this week.
And then if I beat Lamar Jackson and then I go on the road
and we beat Kansas City, damn, all the demons will be off my back.
So it's like, it's funny. They're in the same boat, right?
It really is. It's crazy that way.
And yeah, then to go to the Superbowl, like you said, and then have to deal with,
you know, who knows what team the lions, the Eagles and go over, well, they're pretty good.
I gotta beat them. Does that count? Does this one count? I don't know what's going to happen,
right? But, uh, these, these are, these are the things that we know greatness in the NFL
Pantheon, the hall of famers, all that. They're judged
on these moments. And it's unfortunate that three greats like this are all on the same
side of the bracket and got to deal with each other. But that's just the way it is. And
that's what's going to make this playoffs. Awesome. If you, Chris, were to switching
over now to the NFL coaching search right now, if you were an NFL head coaching candidate, which is the
job that Chris Sims would want the most?
Because a lot of people now are saying, hey, the Patriots are a good landing spot because
they have a quarterback, they're going to have some cap room.
The idea of getting Trevor Lawrence, which we know you're never going to turn down, but
the idea of getting Trevor Lawrence is something a lot of people are salivating over.
Chicago is one that intrigues a lot of people.
You now have Las Vegas that became available this week,
where you have Tom Brady calling the shots, which might not be the best thing there.
But which is one that if you were a head coaching candidate, you would desire the most?
Well, Brady will know the right coaches, right?
You know, I know you guys released some shit on social media
about me and all the damn Brady stuff last week.
That was Billy.
That wasn't me.
I'm a believer in Brady.
I am, as far as a football mind.
I like Tom Brady a lot.
And in fact, it hurts me that that goes out on social media
just because I like him.
But I still stand by what I said.
But either way, like, yeah. Cut out all the like him stuff before this, then just because I like him. But I still stand by what I said. But either way, like, yeah.
Cut out all the like him stuff before this,
then just play all this negative.
He's going to say no.
Shut up.
I don't like you.
So shut that up.
All right?
This is why you're not invited to the Texas game.
And me and Mikey, I don't want to be there.
I think you hit the teams and the points there, Billy.
I think you're right in what you're saying.
I mean, I know you don't like Trevor Lawrence,
and there might be other people in football
that feel the same way.
I get that, but it's still not a bad one to have.
And the Jaguars, a little bit like you said,
like I would say with the Bears, wait, we got receivers,
we got a running back, we got two of them actually,
we got some pass rushers,
we got some guys in the secondary,
we just need to kind of improve the old line a little bit and get a maybe a better defensive tackle in there. So they're not far off. The Bears,
I already explained that, right? Not far off. And you got the quarterback there. And the Patriots,
you know, they're a little more work than the Jaguars and the Bears as far as the full team,
but you do have Drake May, certainly, right?
But you know, there's a lot more to do there.
And that's where, you know, I feel bad for Gerard Mayo
is that like they finished exactly where I think everybody
thought they would finish.
Like nobody looked at the Patriots and went,
oh, they're an under the radar sleeping giant this year.
Watch out for them.
I mean, there's not a lot of bright spots
on their football team. They got a few good
secondary players, right? They got Drake May. They got
Ramondre Stevenson. After that, everybody's gonna be looking
evaluated to see whether they should be the guys going
forward. So, you know, there's a little more work there in New
England than those other two. Uh Chris, I wanna explore just
how far out I can push this. So, if I told you, I think the
Rams are gonna make it to the Super Bowl, would you be surprised?
I think I would be right now. I would.
Okay. All right.
Yeah, pain in the ass, certainly.
Right. I'm going to pick. I'm picking Minnesota to win that game this weekend, but only by a field goal.
But I worry about what I've seen from the Rams offense.
And even though the Rams defense has been better as of late,
I don't know if it's good enough to hold down the fort
if the offense can't be explosive
and put up some points.
So I look at them to be a team that could maybe
they can win this weekend, maybe could
upset one of the teams in the next round.
I certainly don't think that's crazy,
but I would think it kind of ends there
right around that story.
That's about it.
If I told you the Tampa Bay Buccaneers
were gonna make it to the Super Bowl, you would say what?
I would say kind of the same type of stuff,
more though I really worry about the Tampa Bay pass defense. Their offense is capable
of going to the Super Bowl. They can do it all. It's the defense aside and the pass defense
especially I know I've made fun of them a little bit here on the show before but I mean
Todd bowls the Bucks they play defense every week like they're playing the 92 Cowboys. And I want to go, why?
I mean, there was plays last week while I'm watching the game in the viewing room here at NBC,
and I'm going, Alvin Kamara is not playing and the Saints can't run the ball. And there's six guys
at the line of scrimmage. Look at this. I, I, and I'm literally calling out, I guarantee they throw
it over the middle where nobody is. I guarantee they do this. It's just way too aggressive in the run defense,
way too aggressive, let alone they have injuries
all over their secondary.
It makes no sense.
So that's why I don't have faith in that.
They're just a little too much
of a roller coaster team right now.
So it seems like you'd be surprised by any team
other than Philadelphia or the Lions
to make it out of the NFC.
Is that fair?
I would say that's fair. It is. I would
have like maybe about four or three weeks ago, I would have
put Green Bay in that conversation, but they've lost
me. I don't trust the offense right now and Jordan Love and
all that's gone down there. Christian Watson hurt now. So
yeah, I feel like if it's not Lions or Philadelphia, I'm
gonna be jaw dropped like holy **** I can't if it's not Lions or Philadelphia, I'm gonna be jaw dropped like, holy shit, I can't believe it.
And in the AFC, if it's any team other than the three teams,
Baltimore, Buffalo, Kansas City,
are you gonna be surprised?
Let's say the Chargers make it.
Yeah, yes, I would, same thing.
I mean, like jaw on the ground,
like what the, no way, right?
Yeah, I think it's the three heavy hitters.
I'll be shocked.
I will be absolutely shocked if it's not one of those three teams. 100% Stugats.
Now here's the interesting one. If Cincinnati made the playoffs and then went on to make
the Super Bowl, would you have been shocked?
Probably not. No, less than the other ones. Less than the other ones. I know. I know that's
what's crazy and that's what stinks. And that's what stinks about when a team that's good blows games early in the year or loses
games they're not supposed to lose. Then we get cheated out of the best possible playoff
scenarios. So yeah, they're not in it, but Denver's not a bad consolation. Denver was
Sean Payton and Bo Nix and they've already won the year. They're playing with house money.
They'll be dangerous this weekend. I think that'll be a fun game. Kind of one where it's a shootout and
the Bills pull away late. That's kind of what I'm expecting.
Alright, we'll get you out of here in just a second. PFT with
Mike Florio every day on Peacock, the Unbuttoned
Podcast, Football Night in America. He's off to Texas.
He's going to the Cottonball, but hear me out on this, okay?
Because I believe that the Chiefs have a different kind of
pressure on them headed into the postseason.
Last year, the story was Patrick Mahomes woke up one day. They had three road games to win.
He called his wife. He said, I decided the Chiefs are going to win the Super Bowl.
Okay. This year, though, Chris, he has one of the most coveted thing in the sports.
It reminds me of the Patriots where they have a bye week.
They have two home games to get to a Super Bowl.
You have to take advantage of
those opportunities and if you're chasing Tom Brady to be the all-time great, you need
to be the all-time best quarterback in NFL history. You need to do things that Tom has
never done and no quarterback has ever done and winning three straight is one of those
things. There is some pressure here on the Chiefs to get it done right now.
Definitely. I mean, that's why what they've done this year is remarkable. That's
why Andy Reid should be more in the coach of the year candidate conversation. I don't
get that. I don't get it. I mean, it's just, oh, hey, here's another challenge. They can't
do that. Oh, they do it easily. Oh, okay. Oh, and so they, they can't be, you know,
a top team in the AFC for a third year in a row and make a Super Bowl. Oh, they're
the best record in football. Oh, okay. Then they can do it. I mean, they just, they don't, they've slayed so many dragons at this
point though, Stu Gotts, they don't look at anything as pressure. They look at it all as like,
yeah, bring it on, bring it on. We're going to show you how great we are. I've been around them
enough to know and seen them at practice and playoff
games and all that. They don't back down from anything, right? Just like the Patriots, they
were the same way, except the Chiefs are a little bit more of like, yeah, we want it,
bring it. Taylor Swift haters, come on, bring it all. We love it all, right? That's where
I don't think they feel the pressure. They like are, instead of feeling the pressure,
it's just a, we're striving to be the greatest thing ever
and we're gonna just pedal to the metal
and not even think twice about it and go for it.
That's what's cool about the Chiefs.
And that's where they've handled so many pressure moments
that I don't even know if they feel pressure anymore,
Stu Gotts.
All right, but knowing Patrick the the way you know, Patrick,
like he knows that, right?
He knows he's, he's, yes.
He knows all the things you said.
He knows exactly.
To me, what you said is one of the big reasons
they have stayed the course
and done what they've done this year
because they got a guy in my homes
who then has a backup man in Kelsey,
who they could go, hey, they can every day.
And Chris Jones is the same way in the defensive side.
We got something special we can do this year.
Nobody can do this.
Nobody's done this.
Those great Cowboy teams, the great Steeler teams,
the 49ers, Tom Brady and the Patriots,
we can set aside, I might not be teams, the 49ers, Tom Brady and the Patriots. We can set aside.
I might not be able to get to seven, but I can maybe get five or six and go, but you
never won three in a row, Tom, right? All of that. And I think that's why they're a
motivated team because their motivators are motivated by what you're talking about.
All right, Chris, enjoy the weekend. Get off to Texas. Listen, the plane takes off when
you get there. We all know that. Okay. I mean, but no, no, what's, what's, what's even worse is I, my wife just texted
me and said they've canceled our flight. So I'm like, Oh, because Dallas is having this
weather issue, right? And I went to school at Texas and if they get flurries, the state
shuts down. They don't know how to handle cold or ice or snow and we're having issues. So I'm
already concerned about my ability to get there. Road trip right now. I'm getting in the car.
Just you and the kids. Yeah. I see it right here, Chris. 23 hours,
seven minute drive from New Jersey to Dallas. I'll drive. I'll drive with two ships. We'll do Mikey will drive and you and I will sit
in the back seat and smoke weed. Sims. Let's go. Whoa.
Unbelievable. I can't even believe it. It's such a
dummies only in the car. Yeah. He's so upset. Look at him.
He's crushed right now. He wants to go to he wants to go
to the cotton ball. He can't. Well, where's the problem?
Dallas. Why don't you fly into somewhere else and then just
drive from there and text. You have a private plane. You just
tell them wherever the land.
Who do you think I am that I have a private plane or can fly?
Air Sims.
You're Sims.
The plane's called Big D***.
I mean.
Yeah, I wish, but you know, Big D*** played in the 80s.
He ain't that rich, all right?
Let me just tell you, okay?
He'd be killing it today though, man.
No, I mean, for the first time ever in the last year, it was the first time I ever heard
my dad hit the point of his life where he was jealous of the new contracts, right?
It was the first time ever.
My dad's always been like, Hey, I'm happy.
The players are awesome.
And then one day he was like, I can't believe this
money. Some of these guys are getting, holy, can you believe blah, blah, blah is about to get 40
million or whatever? You know, it's just crazy. It really is. It was Danny dimes. Wasn't it? It was
you believe in Danny dimes and the Sims household. So it would be like, God, I love you guys. All
right. Good luck at the Texas fan. Sorry about that. Yeah.
Alright, I'll see you guys. See you. Enjoy super wildcard
weekend. You'll figure out a way. So you're saying you'll
get there. It's wildcard weekend. They cancel the super
finally. No, I call super wildcard weekend. I don't give
a **** what they cancel. I'm gonna call it super wildcard.
I'm gonna call it super wild card. I like it. My man.
Oh. Oh.
Oh.
Oh.
Oh.
Oh.
Oh.
Oh.
Oh.
Oh.
Oh.
Oh.
Oh.
Okay, so Gordy, we were talking about cyber squatting
somehow, we were looking up websites that we could own
that people would then pay us millions of dollars for.
And we stumbled across joshallen.com
and found out that someone in Buffalo owns joshallen.com
and it is a man named Ron and his associate, Todd.
And Ron and Todd both live in Buffalo
and they both buy up a bunch of websites and phone numbers.
And then we're like, would you like to meet
Gordy Gronkowski and like, we knowordy we're like okay perfect I don't know how many Ron's and
Todd's you hang out with but they they claim to know you okay perfect
I don't know if that's a good or a bad thing I mean if they could give us a
good discount on it that would be good. Unwilling to do that. Gordy I tried
listen I was negotiating okay and your name came up because we said listen on it. That would be good.
I was negotiating, okay? And your name came up because we
said, listen, if you give us
the joshallan.com domain for
$100,000 less, perhaps, we
could get you in a room or a
suite with Gordy Gorkowski.
Yeah, there you go. Maybe
we'll even bring Papa Grog.
Yeah. Well, they claim to know him too. go. Maybe we'll even bring Papa
Grock. Yeah. Well, they claim
to know him too. Yeah. Yeah.
They claim to know him too.
Last time I was on the show, we
had Papa Grock sitting on the
bed doing his thing. I love it
is underwear. I think he went
to it. Oh, did he really? Oh my
god. Hey, Billy, check and see if they have Carl Douglas dot com available. I want to talk about that one. All right
Hold on. But here's the thing. I probably swooped it up. I mean just don't say that too loud Carl because then then someone will buy it
And and I will tell you I'll tell you this
He said that most of his business was lawyers that he would buy up law firms. So
It's possible that he's done that.
I think it's already taken from the OJ years.
I tried to get one way back then
and I think it was already taken.
Well, it could have expired.
Let's see here.
I think it is taken, but they're not doing much with it.
I get it.
It's a story of my life.
It's a story of my life.
All right, well, Carl's got a ghost you got.
So if you want, we can start getting picks done because we have a little bit of controversy and I don't know where K-Funk is.
He's doing one of his disappearing acts, apparently.
Oh no, he has too much smear enough.
Did he lose?
Did he lose?
Well, that's what is up for debate and dispute here is the last time, if you remember, we
had a situation where we were discussing the
playoff games in college and they were only going to count if he did well. Now I don't really care
about whether he did well or not I want you guys to do well it's really the truth. So I was really
kind of banking on if you guys did well we would maybe count them and if you guys did poorly we wouldn't. Carl had a very rough NFL week.
If you did not include the playoff games he was two and three but if you included the playoff
games Carl was six and three because he won all of the playoff games. Correct. Now more impressive
was Mike Rollis. Mike Rollis had a very good four in one week. Now if you include the playoff games he had an eight in one week and here's here's
where we really need to kind of pay attention is Mojo was 0 and 5 in NFL
games with his 6 and 9 theory that he was trying to pull off. His college
games didn't help him much I think he went 1 and 6 at the end because he was
just saying I don't care about that game and he wasn't really making picks. Okay. Kayfunk had a two and three week which
isn't great but from what I have and I need to go back and check a little more thoroughly
he ended up being three and four and Sharebear was one and four but he won three of the four.
So what do we want to rule here? Do we want to count the college games or not this week?
Yes absolutely we said we were gonna count them. It doesn week. Yes, absolutely. We said we were going to count them.
It doesn't matter how good he did.
We said we're going to count them.
We got to count them.
OK, fine.
This is a man of integrity, Billy.
Gordy, I don't think you said in your picks,
but I'm going to assume that you.
I do everything opposite of K-Funk if I'm not on the show.
OK, well, I'm just going to assume
that you went 4-0 in the playoffs,
and we won't bother you with the NFL.
So we'll say that you were 4-0 that week.
Actually, what I heard last week was Gordy say for the first time, we'll go opposite Mojo. That's what I heard.
So by my records, you're 6-1, Gordy. So we'll just throw that right there.
That's fair, because I had a tough start and I was coming on hot and you know I was probably gonna going to be right around that record anyways. Okay, perfect.
He needs a help.
I love Gordon.
He needs a help.
He needs help.
Give him a help.
Okay, perfect.
Yeah, I need a lot of help right now.
It's official.
Yeah.
All right.
So we're just going to do this because we have we share bears not here.
We don't have Mike Rollins.
We don't have Mojo.
We don't have Game Fun.
So you ready?
Well, I have picks for Mike Rollins and I have picks for Share Bear at the moment.
Okay. I have picks for Mojo and K-Funk. Mojo got them right and K-Funk got them wrong.
Okay. Well, there you go. Easy peasy. We're picking six games. Are you telling me
before the
games are played that K-Funk
has already got Owen six. I'll
let you know in the fourth
quarter what K-Funk pick. Are
we taking college games this
week? No college this week. No
college this week. We have one
game we can do. We have the
game tomorrow, Billy. We can
do that. Yeah. I get it. Well,
you want to do college, let's
do college. Whatever. Let's just agree on this, that K-Funk is Owen 7 now, okay?
Okay.
He's gonna have a heart attack, I love K-Funk, he's gonna have a heart attack, guys.
He does seem to take it more personally than everyone else.
Yeah.
He does, he's a competitive guy and he thinks it's personal.
I love him.
All right, so you ready?
You guys ready to do this?
Yeah.
All right, because Carl's got to get out of here.
He's in his car.
He's on his way to work.
So we got to get him out of here.
Let's roll out to the first game wild card weekend.
Chargers at Texans.
Texans are three point underdogs at home.
They haven't been playing well.
Chargers playing very, very well.
So I'll go to you first, Gordy.
Gordy, Chargers are minus three at Houston.
Who are you taking here?
You know what? I like the home team and the points. I know they're kind of beat up Houston,
but I think it's still going to be a tight game. I don't really ever see the Chargers
blowing people up. So I'm going with Houston.
All right. Billy, you have Share Bear's picks?
Yeah. Share Bear took the Chargers. Mike Rollins took the Texans.
Okay. And K-Funk is 0-1, and Mojo is 1-0.
Carl Bugg was Chargers at Texans.
Chargers are minus three.
Mikey Yeg, thank you for that joke.
I'm not gonna stop saying it.
Chargers are minus three at the Texans.
Who you got, Carl?
I'm a lifelong Angelino.
We hate the Chargers, but in this game, I'm going to go with them because they're playing
well.
Give me the Chargers.
I'll give them the points.
All right.
Carl has taken the Chargers.
Next game is Steelers at Ravens.
Ravens minus nine and a half points at home.
Carl, I'll start with you.
Who you take it here?
My wife's entire family is from Pittsburgh.
She's going to hate me me but I'm going to
take the Ravens. I don't think
they can score for Pittsburgh.
So, I'm taking the Ravens. Go
with the points. Alright,
Billy, who does uh Rollins and
Share Bear have? Share Bear and
Mike Rollins both have the
Steelers. Alright, Gordy, who
you taking here? Uh we have
four G and G fitness retail
stores in the heart of
Pittsburgh. Uh we help supply
the Steelers with their
fitness equipment.
You know, I just think they're going to, you know,
last longer on the field because we beat these guys up.
So I'm going with Steelers, baby.
You're going with the Steelers and you're giving your own
company credit for the Steelers getting the deal.
Correct.
I love that.
What if the Ravens were a client?
You would have taken them?
I would have, then I wouldn't have brought that situation up.
With how hot he's been, maybe the Ravens want to give him a call, just saying.
Right, right.
Just saying.
Hey, it's taking a lot of energy.
All right, and here's Mojo.
All right, so Mojo, we have to be quick and we have to be efficient here.
By the way, Mojo, if you want to drop back off, we already gave you an undefeated week.
Whoa, sweet.
Well, really what I did was I gave K-Funk a win this week,
and I gave you opposite funk.
So you didn't have to give him that.
He was going to produce that on his own.
That's what he does.
We have a whole season's worth of results to back that up.
Mathematical factual statement.
Carl Douglas, that would be an open shut case
if he was in a quarter wall.
There you go, man. There you go.
There you go.
Well, here's how it would have happened
is that Kay Funk never showed up
and he never sent his picks.
So by our rules, that's a forfeit.
So you'd do opposite forfeit, you'd get all the wins,
I think.
Yeah.
Don't pick a thing,jo don't you're good
Wait, just just hang around here. I mean he's
He's gonna have a heart attack next to me. You're gonna kill my guy case up next week when he hits him
Yeah, I mean you get you can pick game for funsies, but I feel like we're locked in at that ruling
What's a fun notebook to say is my question.
It's a great question.
It's going to say he didn't show up and we gave him an 0 and 6.
That's what he's going to say.
Orbit, yeah.
Considering he's the one that individually texts us every single
hour of every single day leading into this show every week.
It's odd.
You have perfect attendance.
Yeah.
So Mojo, what would you like to do?
Do you want to pick the games or not?
I'll pick the games.
I'll
pick the games. I'll let him
pick. Alright, you're listening.
No pressure. You're undefeated.
Okay. Chargers at Texans,
Texans plus three at home.
What are you taking there?
Chargers at Texans. Ooh. Give
me Sean Maryman and the
Chargers, baby. Alright.
That's the last time he's playing. He's playing this weekend, right? I think he's day to day, but it's it's trending that way.
In questionable since oh four.
All right, Mojo Steelers at Ravens.
Ravens, that's a big spread too.
But the spread master ain't scared Baltimore all day.
Steelers are having a really, really good run right now.
Okay. Yeah. We're back.
We're back on track here.
So next game Broncos at Bills, Bills minus eight and a half.
Billy, who did Rawls and Cherbear take here?
Mike Rawls has the Bills, Cherbear has the Broncos.
Okay. Let's go to Gordy first here.
Gordy Bills, I know who Gordy is taking.
Bills minus eight and a half.
They're at home. They're taking on the Broncos.
Just skip right over me. You know who I'm going to take the bills. I know it's taking bills minus eight and a half. They're taking
on the right over me. Just skip
right over me. You know what?
I'm going to. I think you're
taking the bills, Gordy. Yeah,
absolutely. We have a fitness
store right in Buffalo that you
know that's our hometown. I
just buy the fitness equipment
to the bills. So yeah, I gotta
go with J Allen. Let's go. Let's
go baby. Alright, Paul Douglas.
So you take it here bills minus
eight and a half at home taking on Bo Nix and the Broncos.
I think the Bills are gonna win,
but I'm taking the Broncos
because I think they're gonna cover.
Give me the Broncos.
All right, Bills win, Broncos cover.
Mojo, who you taking?
I'm gonna take the Bills
because they're gonna have to make a statement win here
this week to kick off the players' playoffs,
but I'm mostly going to take the bills because the first
Time you might have to censor me on this afterwards depending on what Gord says is best
But the first time I went over to the Gronkowski family household
they had a massive massive party going on go figure and they
Introduced me to the game of slip and flip.
If you're not familiar with this game,
you do a sprint, you dive, you slide down a slip and slide.
Theirs was literally 40 yards long.
It was for, it's the longest one I've ever seen.
Then you get up, you have to do a flip cup
at the end of the line.
Then baton style, you have to sprint all the way back to the beginning, tag in the next guy and
it's a relay race of who's gonna win that slip and flip.
So I'm watching this and I'm like, this is awesome.
I can't wait to play this.
There's an athletic component.
There's a party component.
I'm in.
I decided not to because someone decided that everyone was going to go in for a round
of their around of shots and one of their buddies who will remain nameless stayed out
at the slip and slide and use the bathroom at the top of the slip and slide. So that
way when they resume the game they would be sliding right through it which I thought was
very funny.
So because of that, Gordy's face looks like he hasn't heard this yet.
I have it.
I have it.
And he's slipped through a bunch of games.
Gordy's face looked like he did not know this was a game.
I slid through it.
That's what you're telling me.
Yeah.
Well, unless Gord was the one that did it.
Well, I did.
We don't know.
We don't know.
Because I want to know now.
And yeah, I thought that was pretty funny.
I thought that was pretty funny.
I thought that was pretty funny.
I thought that was pretty funny. I thought that was pretty funny. I thought that was pretty funny. I thought that was pretty funny. it. We don't know. We don't know.
Because I want to know now.
Yeah, I thought that was pretty awesome.
So I'll take that.
Now I don't think it is.
Yeah, I'll go with it.
All right.
I'm texting you right now.
Who was I'm going to say?
I knew it wasn't me.
Wait, so Gordy, he's going to text you who it was and then feel free to share it without just reading. It'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Carl. Our
apologies. No problem. No
problem. No problem. No
problem. Maybe speed picks for
Carl and then he can enjoy as
much as he wants and when he's
got to go, he can go. Alright,
Packers at Eagles, Eagles minus
four and a half. Who are you
taking Carl? Give me the Eagles.
I'm I'm I'm I'm worried about
love's arm and I'm worried
about Kristen Watson and God.
Give me the Eagles. Alright, taking the Eagles. I'm going to get you out of here. Call commanders at Bucks Bucks minus the the the
the
the
the
the
the the trial right now in Compton on a wrongful death case seeking justice for the family of Fred
Williams III. Wish me luck.
All right and Carl we wish you luck with all the fires and everything going on out there.
You'll be in our thoughts and our prayers the entire weekend. You, your friends, your
family, everyone. Good luck to you and hopefully you guys get through it.
Thank you brother. May God bless. See you guys next week. Love you.
All right. Thank you Carl.
I love you buddy.
He is fantastic. I love that man. All right. Thank you, Carl. Love you, buddy.
He is fantastic.
I love that man.
All right, so where we leave off.
So Gordy Packers at Eagles,
Eagles minus four and a half.
Who are you taking it?
I'm going with the Packers, taking the points.
Okay, did Mojo send you the name yet?
Yeah, he did.
But if I click on it on my cell phone,
I'm worried I might not be able to get back in the street.
Okay.
That is a good line, dude.
Wow, that was incredible, and it's true, too.
Mojo, you take it here.
Eagles minus 4 1 2 1.
Here's what Mojo's gonna do.
Mojo's gonna flip the script today.
The Packers broke an 11-game win streak
against the Chicago Bears, who suck all the asses, our arch rival.
Very much upsetting Mojo.
Now you would think that that would be the message
into their head to flip this thing around for the playoffs,
but I'm not sure it's enough right now.
So I'm going to take the Eagles wall against the Packers
for the first time all season,
knowing that every single member of the Packers football team listens to God
bless football to hear the spread master call their name every week.
And when they hear that I took the other guys, they're gonna be so
pissed off to prove me wrong that they're absolutely going to smash
the Eagles face in.
So that's what I'm doing.
All right, I love it.
Billy, who did Share Bear and Rawlis take?
Share Bear took the Eagles, Rawlis took the Packers.
All right, Gordy, I'm tempted to tell you just to go check the text and
then come back to the Zoom.
Maybe I already did check it.
Ooh.
Maybe that's why he's not sharing who it is. Maybe it's not even exciting for the shop, you don't know who it is. the- the- the- the- the- the-
the- the- the- the- the- the-
the- the- the- the- the- the-
the- the- the- the- the- the-
the- the- the- the- the- the- the- the- the- the- the- the- I'm going to the game. Uh Bucks or minus three at home
against the commanders. I think
Bucks pulled off. Um I'm going
to the game. I am tailgating.
So, I will be a little
emotional but I think it's
going to be a close game. I'm
going to take Washington. Alright,
you're taking Washington. Uh
Billy, who did Chervair Rollins
take for this game? Chervair
took the Bucks. Rollins took
the Bucks. Alright, Mojo, who
you going with? Commanders at Bucks, Bucks minus three at home. You know Mojo's name used to be Dean. Way less exciting. Not middle name if you're
wondering. That's true, that's true and Dean didn't party. Dean studied late. Dean went
to bed early. Dean did all the right things. Dean has kids. Once Dean met Gordon Grunkowski,
Gordon Dean Grunkowski Jr. in Washington DC,
that's when the journey to Mojo began.
And because of that reason, I'm taking Washington.
Take it inside.
It all began.
Same exact reason I did.
Right.
Yeah. Are you saying that Mojo? Carl too. Are exactly. He's excited. Right.
Yeah.
Are you saying that?
Are you saying Dean's a dad, but Mojo is not?
Is that what you're saying?
Yeah.
Well, no, because Mojo is probably more times over a dad than Dean actually is.
Okay.
All right.
But they're different people, right?
I mean, well, we don't know this. Yeah.
Mojo parties, Dean does not party.
Dean hasn't left out.
Dean is a father, Mojo is a dad.
There you go.
Is mojo.com available by the way?
Yeah.
Nice.
Billy, do we know mojo.com as well?
I don't know.
