When I did podcasts, I wear my sleep masks. I like where this is going. So if you guys will indulge me. That's right, the incredibly talented and hilarious Will Ferrell on an episode dedicated to crimes committed by people named Will Ferrell. You're good for 300 crimes?

Yeah. We got two. I'm ready to go. right up to present day. Listen to Crimless on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. Welcome in. What's Right with Nick Wright, episode 3.72.

And as always, this episode is brought to you by our friends at Boost Mobile. So much to do today. Demandze. Sorry, pal. Your team, it's not... Sometimes in sports, you know, lose the battle but win the war.

I fear the Ravens might have lost the battle and the war on Sunday. I fear they could be in real trouble moving forward. Now, they have a division that's winnable, and I don't really believe in Aaron Rogers, and so they have time to steady the ship. But at the moment, the chiefs have our number. at the if the moment is this era of football yes that is true um so we will get to that we will also get to listen the monday night the monday night double header was terrible um those were not great games and sadly the only real news from those games is a absolutely catastrophic injury

to one of the greatest players of the era in tyree kill So we will get to that in a bit. Also, of course, a bizarre Cowboys Packers game where the offer did hit, by the way. DeMonds, hold on, before we get to Chiefs Ravens, can I tell, DeMonse occasionally, I don't know, do you like dream about a bet you want to make? It's late. It's always late. Or you have a couple cocktails on a Saturday night, and you're like, I want to get this bet in. So is the, do I have it about right?

It just gets super late. And I don't know. I think it's when everybody's sleeping. My brain is the most active. I'm like, this all makes sense. I'm going to lock it in. But obviously I'm in California.

So, DeMonze is in California so he can't put these teasers in on his own. And while he has been great, did your teaser hit this week? Yeah. Yeah. Back to a cover by the Jets last night. Oh, okay, perfect.

Well, that's what, listen, that's why you tease. up those points. He has been great on following all teaser rules consistently for the show pick. However, he, in the middle

of the night, Saturday night, text me, can you put this in for me my biggest wager of the season? And not only did he not follow any of the teaser rules, it's just an abomination

of a bet. It's the Eagles from minus 3 and a half to plus 4 and a half, the Chiefs up to plus 10 and a half playing against his team. And then the P.A. Stéresistance because he loves eight point teasers, the Packers who were a perfect teaser candidate that actually wouldn't have won a six point teaser. I told that wouldn't have won. Oddly, teasing through the zero is the only reason this won because it was a tie. The Packers to plus one and a half, he put it in. By the way, I paid you this morning.

I don't know if you saw it, but I paid you this morning. I wake up to that at 7 a.m. Sunday morning that this guy wants the worst teaser ever, but it worked. So what do you do? Sunday night. He cash. Props to you. All right, let's get to

straight the voicemail brought to you by Boos Mobile. We are not on the show today, getting to NBA Media Day reactions. We are not going to do baseball playoffs today we will do some of that on Thursday and j j reddick evidently has 90 minute conversations with his friend chat which chat gpt i i'm not going to judge it i know a lot of people you know have a lot you know are very productive and get a lot of things done through a i and through talking with

a i and working with a i i have not fully embraced that technology as of yet i'm sure at some point I will. Once upon a time, I used to be on the radio making fun of the concept of Twitter and how I would never be on Twitter. And, you know, now it's my only social media platform. So I recognize I'll get there one day. I'm just not there yet. Where I am, though, DeMontze is fully relaxed and comfortable and relieved about the Chiefs. Let's get right to the game of the weekend. Yeah, so we all saw what happened on Sunday. Your Chiefs crushed my Ravens. We were obviously riddled with injuries. Our quarterback went down very early into the third quarter.

But she said after starting O and two... That is not, hold on. Your quarterback did not go down early in the third quarter. It was like eight minutes like going on. He went down at the end of the third quarter when he tapped out when they were down 17. But go ahead. You said your chiefs had the chance to rewrite history after starting 0 and 2. after this game, do you think they did so?

Well, listen, they studied themselves. And the 0-and-2 start, what they had to do was beat the Giants. That was an ugly game that obviously turned on the tackle that turned the tide. And then they had to go take care of business against the Ravens and take care of business they did. and not shockingly, the moment the Chiefs had close to a competent receiving core, the offense looked good again. The last, and we don't have to do this full history in depth, but it is worth mentioning that the Chiefs traded away Tyree Kill. Mahomes snap in an offseason changed the way he played based on. on the receivers they had, one league MVP.

The very next year, dealt with more drops than any quarterback, literally, in modern NFL history, figured it out by the playoffs, won the Super Bowl. The next year dealt with the most injured wide receiver and running back room in the NFL, got all the way to the Super Bowl, and the next year, which was this year, walked into the season with his number one receiver suspended for six games and his number two receiver knocked out of game one three plays in and it looked shaky for a bit and i told you guys that i knew real like i guess insight that that chargers week one game plan zavier worthy was the epicenter of it and him being knocked out three plays in threw everything off

But this, the fatalism surrounding the chiefs from almost everyone else in the media was, and I don't want to be a scold, and I don't want to be more annoying than I naturally am, but it was embarrassing. And it was so fickle and so myopic, myopic, pardon me, as if they don't have a Hall of Fame head coach, a Hall of Fame caliber D coordinator, and the most talented quarterback to ever live, that they couldn't figure it out. And it was as if they were getting boat raced in these early games,

or as if they were playing terrible teams and losing. Neither were true. Now, I want to make this clear. I don't think the chiefs are, you know, quote, fully back. if back means being the highest scoring team in the league. I don't think that's who they're going to be. I don't think the chiefs have solved all their issues. I still think the running back room leaves a lot to be desired

and their ability to get pressure on the opposing quarterback without sending a blitz at the moment leaves a lot to be desired. But if you're going into the Baltimore game, you looked around the AFC, the only team that really you could say had no holes to poke at it was the Chargers going into week four, but they already were dealing with some potentially mounting injuries that sadly they dealt with more of during week four in a game they had no business losing but lost. And so the bills were undefeated, but the bill's defense had looked shaky, and they had and have played three consecutive games against just bottom feeders.

The Ravens were given this huge benefit of the doubt, despite having the same record as the Chiefs. And then every other team that had a good record like the Steelers or the Jags, you had real reason to be concerned about. And so... Who's first? I mean, I don't... know if this matters. Whose first slate of games? Who do you think has had the tougher schedule through the first four weeks between the Ravens and the Chiefs? I think it's been almost identical.

Okay. So, like, they played each other. So if we want to call, like, I, so call the Chiefs Ravens game, you know, a wash, so to speak. The Ravens played the Browns. The Chiefs played the Giants. I think the Giants are better than the Browns, but the Browns have a better defense. You know what I mean? Call that a wash.

And then the Ravens played the Bill. the chiefs played the Eagles the Ravens play or I guess we could do bills Chargers Eagles Lions you know what I mean like I think the bills are a little better than the Chargers but I think the Eagles are a little better than the Lions so to me it's very very similar like as far as what the opening slate was now you could argue the Chiefs Ravens game being in Kansas City like the Ravens having to go on the road for that tilts it but the other piece of it that that That was maddening to me and has been even more maddening in the after. There have been two things that have happened in the aftermath of this game that really drive me crazy.

And I had kind of a rough moment near the end of yesterday's show on TV with Wilds yesterday. I'll apologize to him when I see him today. It's not really the tone of our show, but I got angry when I should know. and I mean, I don't think he took it terribly. Like, I think he might be surprised when I apologize to him, but maybe not. But two things have happened that to me are so frustrating. The first one is, I understand the Ravens during the game, lost Roquan Smith, and late in the game, lost Humphrey, and once the game was over, over, over,

lost Nate Wiggins. But they went into the game missing four starters. And the defense already had been bad all year. Everyone knew that and picked them. That's fine, by the way. Like, you can pick whoever you want, and I'm not acting like that game was a lot from the way it played out. The chiefs had full control, but, you know,

something goes differently, maybe not. But to know the team has those injuries going in, And then afterwards, be like, well, of course Kansas City did that. Look at all the injuries on defense. It's just bullshit. It's that if your handicap going into the game was, I think the Ravens at full strength are better, but they're not full strength.

Therefore, I think the chiefs will win. And then you see that game, you're like, yeah, that's what I thought. So be it. But that wasn't anyone's handicap. The handicap was, even with the Ravens' defensive injuries, the Chief's offense with Patrick freaking Mahomes on it, and Andy Reed calling the plays, is so broken that they're not going to be able to move the ball.

I mean, Vegas had them as underdogs as well. Correct. Yeah. Which is, again, two and a half, one underdogs at home, to a one and two team that the two competent offenses that they had played move the ball at will. And so to then Monday morning quarterback be like, oh, well, obviously this was going to happen. That's not what you believed. That wasn't people's picks.

That wasn't people's opinion. The conversation going into the game was, who needed it more Kansas City? Who do you trust more Baltimore? more. Good. I watched Dorlowski do. The Ravens are built to beat the chiefs. What? It's like, no, they're built to beat the chiefs and the Bengals. They're just, they're not built to beat the, I think you said the Chargers and the Lions something. I don't know. It was consent and the other piece of it was, and this is my other level of frustration, because while Ronnie Stanley did go out during this game, the Ravens' offense is

healthy. And it was that, well, the chiefs aren't going to be able to slow down a Ravens offense that no one's been able to slow down. They score 30 plus in every game. And that, of course, is not what happened. And so that frustrated me. Hey, it's us, the Jonas brothers. And guess what? We have some big news. What's the news? Huge news. We created our own podcast called, Hey, Jonas. We invented a podcast? Well, we didn't invent it. We just contributed to it. We're the first people to do podcasts. Pretty, yeah, pretty wide range of podcasts.

We're starting a trend. But this one's extra special. So how do we actually come up with a name, Hey Jonas, guys? I honestly don't remember. I think it was on a call about what we should call it. Well, we were thinking I'm originally calling it one of the early names

of our band before Jonas Brothers was... This is how you guys remember it going down? Yes. I have a very different memory of this. We were talking about a thing, a bit for the podcast, for people could call in and say, hey, Jonas. And then I wrote down on my little notepad, Hey Jonas, and offered it up as a potential title for the podcast.

But thanks for remembering that, guys. Listen to Hey Jonas on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. Just listen. We don't care where you hear it. Another podcast from some SNL late night comedy guy, not quite. Unhumor me with Robert Smygel and friends. Me and hilarious guests from Bob Odenkirk to David Letterman

help make you funnier. This week, my guest, SNL's Mikey Day and head writer, Streeter Seidel, help an a cappella band with their between songs banter. Where does your group perform? We do some retirement homes. Those people are starving for banter.

Listen to humor me with Robert Smigel and Friends on the I-Heart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. The French Open is one of the toughest tests in tennis, and I know firsthand because I competed there myself. I'm Renee Stubbs, and on the Renee Stubbs Tennis podcast, I'm breaking down everything happening at Roland Garris,

every match, every upset, and what it really takes to win on Clay. Genshin win. I mean, she went down at three to Rabakina, but I'm delighted. She's an outsider to win the French for me. And she likes Clay. Listen, Lina Rabakina is arguably the best player in the world right now, and I actually can win on any surface,

because if she's serving, well, good luck. Consider this your court-side seat to the French Open. Listen to the Renee Stubbs Tennis podcast on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Presented by Capital One, founding partner of IHeart Women's Sports. Imagine an Olympics where doping is not only legal but encouraged. It's the enhanced games. Some call it grotesque. Others say it's unleashing human potential.

Either way, the podcast's Superhuman documented it all, embedded in the games and with the athletes for a full year. Within probably 10 days, I'd put it. on 10 pounds. I was having trouble stopping the muscle growth. Listen to Superhuman on the I Heart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

And the other thing that frustrated me had nothing to do with Brewer Wilds, but it had to do with me listening to Simmons Pod as I do every Monday morning. Listening to Greg Rosenthal's NFL Daily

pod as I do every day. listening to, you know, a lot of them, watching the Monday morning shows and all of it. And I was like, I could not believe that I was going to once again have to be, I guess, the bad guy in pointing out the obvious fact that this game turned on a totally predictable yet inexplicable horrific Lamar pick

and the Ravens were up seven to three with the ball on first down around midfield and Lamar retribled backwards and then threw up a prayer for no reason whatsoever a guy who

has he and and again people can be mad at me but here are the facts of it and every year people get mad at me and then every year we get another piece of evidence that I'm stone right about this and then every year I have to listen to folks stick their fingers in the ears and be like nope actually wrong Lamar's the greatest pastor of the football we've ever seen is the highest passer rating ever never turns the ball over, and all the big game playoffs, games against the Chief stuff is just dumb, random luck. In the last 30 games, Lamar has played.

He has multiple turnovers in three of them. The AFC championship game against Kansas City, the divisional round against Buffalo, and Sunday against Kansas City. I guess that's a coincidence. in the last 30 games Lamar has played. He has thrown seven interceptions, which is remarkable that he's only thrown seven. He had like a 50 to 4 touchdown interception ratio in this stretch. You move playoffs. It was crazy.

The interceptions are as follows. Four regular season interceptions prior to Sunday, three of which we played the video, hit his receiver. in the hands and then either got like bobbled or stolen, one of which Bateman just stopped running his route. But four passes that did not need to be picked. The only three, in the last 30 games, the only three interceptions Lamar is thrown, where it's like, what the hell was that? AFC championship game into triple coverage in the fourth quarter against Kansas City. divisional round game early against Buffalo and the one Sunday.

He also in those three games had inexplicable fumbles out of nowhere. To pretend like that is coincidental when we once again saw Lamar throwing his helmet out of sorts. It's just dishonest. and I know Bill Polion was mean in his commentary towards the guy eight years ago. And I know some of the worst actors in media sports or otherwise tried to pigeonhole him as a wide receiver in a pretty nakedly at times racist way. I get that. And I understand because of that, There has been a almost protectionism and a want for folks to see him succeed at the highest level.

I don't disagree with that. But why do we have to pretend what is obviously true is not? Why do we have to pretend that this is a unique thing we haven't seen across sports our whole lives? the all-time great legendary player who sadly gets tight in his biggest spots and plays his worst in his biggest moments. That's part of sports, man. And nobody was going back and taking away

Peyton Manning's MVP's and his records because he struggled massively in the biggest spots. But we weren't pretending it was coincidental either. Talked about the Peyton Manning face. Talked about how he got anxious. Talked about how his brother was like the bizarro version of him. A wholly mediocre player for giant expanses of his career,

who somehow in the biggest spots played his absolute best. And for some reason with Lamar, we got to pretend it's not happening. I got to, listen, I don't know this guy, but, I think he does good work. I think he's a smart commentator. But I, Deontay Lee at the Ringer. Before the Lamar fumble, I tweeted, Lamar has basically gone two years without making that,

this was on the pick, without making that exact type of mistake, except for in the 23 AFC championship game, the 24-divisional round, and just now against Kansas City. Probably a coincidence. and dionte lee quote tweets it right nobody can identify the intrinsic traits of a winner and loser like nick wright he is the seer it's like no bro i'm not i'm not trying to tell you i'm not trying to act like i look in at guy's eyes

and can determine whether he has the it factor i'm just trying to act like i've watched this guy's whole fucking career and from day one he has been a guy who in the postseason or in these instances now when he sees Patrick across the field, plays his worst football. And we can act like it's a small sample, but he's played the chief seven times. He's played, I think, 10 playoff games. Like, it's not a small sample. And my frustration is, and again, so this is the other.

thing, DeMonse, and this is what I'll say before we keep it moving. And maybe DeMonte, you'll tell me this is unfair. I don't think if I'm a Ravens fan, I don't think the thing that I came out of that

game most disheartened about was the defense. And the reason for that is obviously, if the defense is this bad, they are drawing dead. You know what I mean? They can't have the worst defense in football. But what to me was so disheartening about it, if you're a Ravens fan is, you're now going to have in the back of your head, even if we get the defense fixed. When we get to these moments against Josh or Patrick, are we getting MVP Lamar?

Or are we getting throwing his head back, slamming the helmet, taking terrible sacks, throwing off his back foot, That to me is the concern. Go ahead. Defense definitely has to get better. I think that'll help a lot, obviously. But it's every single time you are realizing more and more that I think it's a mental thing. It's not like a physical. He's pretty, I don't want to say he, I don't want to put it all on Lamar, but seems pretty checked out from the start.

I don't want to say checked out like disinterested. But I mean, there was a nice third and 11 that he picked up when they were still up. And he still just kind of walked back to the huddle. looked a little sad his emotions he's just not up and spry like I see him in other games and it's just it is a little disheartening as a

He said he tried to take it back But he said a few years ago That Mahomes had been his cryptonite And he was asked like member And it was like the How you know excited do you get to play The Chiefs And he's like I'm not excited at all

Like it was kind of charming almost But then he tried to pull it back later he's like, no, I don't feel that way. It's in his head. And I don't think his team, and this is what I want your take on. I don't think the play calling

in these spots does him any favors by trying to put the whole game on him. You have Derek Henry. Yeah, exactly. We weren't using him as much as we should have in the game. And it was the same story in the AFC championship game. They didn't have Derek Henry then, but they had a great running game. They wouldn't run the ball. Like it's, it's like they, it sometimes feels like they go into these

games like trying to prove a point that Lamar can just out dual Patrick. Like, just go get the, get the win. And then even in a couple instances where he would have normally evaded, he just kind of, I don't know, he just seemed like he almost took the sack. I see Lamar getting out of some of those situations that he got trapped in. Well, it's been two weeks in a row where, like, they, yeah. And so listen, and I'm not going to kill him too much on some of those sacks because some of the greatest Lamar plays ever are plays that looks like he should have been sacks, somehow gets away, and then makes a crazy throw.

So to keep those available, sometimes you're just not going to get away. But, yeah, I mean, he wasn't good. And I just don't think it's coincidental. Let's get to some of these follow-ups here, pal. So with Baltimore, do you think that Kansas City is in a good spot right now? Because obviously, Baltimore is super down? So, like, is Kansas City humming or is Baltimore, you know, just at a heavy disadvantage right now? So, listen, I think that I don't think everything is, you know, the sky is falling in

Baltimore because I do think that Lamar is going to instantly be back to being regular season Lamar. Like, I expect Lamar against a great Texans defense to be excellent. I expect Lamar against the Rams to be excellent. Like, I don't, I'm not too worried about the hamstring. That was a weird one. Um, because he got no treatment. Like the trainers weren't working on it.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It was like he wrapped a. It was, that was a weird one. So I think he's going to play, and I think he'll be good. But I think the defense, you know, they're going to just have to outscore people and hope the defense gets healthy by the end of the year. And I don't think Kansas City is fully fixed.

But I think Kansas City has now fully steadied themselves. And the Chargers did them a huge favorite by blowing that game to the Giants. And now it's like, you know, in short order, the Chargers could theoretically be, or the Chiefs could be back in first place. What else do we have here? So chat, Andy, asked Nick, Nick worried that the chief success is seemingly tied to a skinny wire receiver's

health. Xavier Worthy was obviously a big focal point. He was huge. Now, listen, Xavier was healthy all last year and took some big shots. Yes, but I am worried about that. I also think, though, that once they get Rishi back, it's less tied just to Worthy.

and in theory, once they get Rishi back, the chief should have the best receiving Corma Holmes has had in four years. Rishie worthy, Thornton's been a nice addition. Like, it kind of pushes Hollywood Brown. Yeah. I got to say, I'm obviously a Ravens fan, but you guys weren't.

You guys just look good in the game. And it was fun. And the Chiefs are more fun when they play like that. And Mahomes, listen, those Mahomes red zone touchdowns to Thornton and to Juju were sick. Those were darts. Yes, he had to fire those in. And I thought those were excellent. All right, let's do one more Baltimore follow up for him.

What's going on with Derek Henry? Like, obviously he's had the track record of fumbling this season. But his usage was in the last game. I wouldn't worry about the fumbles. I just don't know why they. didn't give him the ball more. It was just so weird to me that they wouldn't give him the ball more. He had, I think, four carries for 31 yards on the opening drive.

Yeah, and so listen, I'm not ready to do Harbaugh hot seat, especially because here's the other thing. I still think they're going to win the AFC North, the Monse. The Bengals are a mess. The Browns have the worst offense in the league outside of maybe Tennessee. and I don't I don't trust Pittsburgh yet. Now, I thought they were going to lose. Like I was wrong about Pittsburgh Sunday morning.

So let me put it like this. I think right now 10 wins still wins Baltimore, the AFC North. And I obviously think they can get to 10 wins. They would have to go 9 and 4, the rest of the way, and I expect them to definitely be able to do that. Now, if Pittsburgh really gets rolling, maybe I'll adjust, but I wouldn't panic about missing the playoffs from Baltimore. I just panic about what have I seen this year that makes me feel like I'm a real contender?

Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts. Presented by Capital One, founding partner of IHeart Women's Sports. Imagine an Olympics where doping is not only legal but encouraged. It's the enhanced games. Some call it grotesque. Others say it's unleashing human potential. Either way, the podcast's Superhuman documented it all, embedded in the games and with the athletes for a full year.

Within probably 10 days, I'd put on 10 pounds. I was having trouble stopping the muscle growth. Listen to Superhuman on the I-Hard Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Let's go to Packers Cowboys, pal. So you said on Thursday show that there was no way that Dallas is going to be Green Bay. And I guess you were correct to a certain extent. That game ended 40-40 in a tie in overtime. Mike had eight quarterback pressures and probably got to DAC when it mattered the most.

but you said the bigger story of the game here was Green Bay's offense late. What did you see there? All right, so let me do with Micah first quickly, and then we'll do the Packers. Listen, I'm, the Packers defense had been A-plus through three weeks, and then they were really bad on Sunday night. There's no, you know, there's no getting around that. That's obvious. They were really bad Sunday night.

I did think Micah's shoe string tackle on DAC saved the Packers because Dak was going to score a touchdown, held him to a field goal because of it. But that was a disappointing performance for the Packers. And on the Micah front, I can't watch the I can't watch the, I can't watch the Cowboys offense look the way it has looked through a month and not feel like, man, had they just gotten it worked out with Micah, they'd be like a fringe contender. Dak is playing out of his mind, bro. Like, he's playing great.

And doing that against that defense without C.D. Lamb, Pickens having the game of his life was so impressive. And so it just feels so bitter sweet if you're a Cowboys fan where it's like, man, if we had just gotten this worked out with Micah and our defense was just average, like we'd be a real team. I think right now they'd be three and one instead of one, two, and one. And they'd be a problem for teams. You think Jerry validated the trade with that game?

I think it's so that the thing is I think it's the opposite. I know that the fair enough. I know, but a lot of people had that take because the Packers' defense was bad. But the Cowboys' defense was just as bad. Yeah. And so like I know this feels maybe a little unfair, but the better the Cowboys' offense plays, the more I hate the trade.

Because it's like, man, you had a real chance to content. Now, the end of the game is, the concerning part. So I want to give Matt LaFleur grace in this regard. He was terrified of Brandon Aubrey. What Matt LaFleur was trying to avoid was the Packers kicking a field goal with 30 seconds left and then having to kick off to this mutant kicker, Brandon Aubrey, indoors where they could potentially get to,

God, if they get to their own 45-yard line, and it's a 72-yard field goal, you'd feel like, got a chance. And with the new kickoff rule, if you'd kick a touchback, they start at the 35. Like, the Cowboys probably thought, man, they could start. 15 yards from field goal range.

So they were trying to make sure if they kicked a field goal, that if they kicked a field goal, that Green Bay was not going to have any time. I understand that. And, you know, that to... Oh, I'm sorry, to get the kickoff to you to get to start every position. No, ignore that. Ignore that. And so the, the, I understand Matt LaFleur being cautious.

I don't understand, or I didn't understand it first, his total lack of trust in Jordan Love, who was playing a good game to take any chances to just win the game with a touchdown. the way you remove Brandon Aubrey from the equation is you score a touchdown. Okay, you score a touchdown the game's over. But it was kind of validated by the fact that Jordan Love almost butchered the end of that game. They're very lucky that the Cowboys timekeeper is ethical and what didn't just delay by a half second and let the clock run out. You would, that was a very nice thing for a road timekeeper to do. But Jordan Love, but that was what happened though. Like that was the about of time.

That was, I mean, maybe. I mean, like, it, when it hit the ground, like, it feels like if there were tenths of a second to Monzae, that that thing would have been like point two. And if it's point two, like, you could probably just be like, oh, it's, you know. But regardless, um, The fact of the matter is it's second down. The Packers have no timeouts. And Jordan Love, instead of throwing it away,

or scrambling and throwing it away, checks it down. And now the clock inbound. And now the clock's running. He has to know, if I cannot get this snap off with 10 seconds left, I need to just spike the ball and we'll take the field goal. They almost got a procedural penalty, which would have been a 10 second runoff game over.

Everything happened late, and they almost ran out of time. For a guy who's not even close to a rookie, he's been in the league a long time at this point, that was a brutal. and almost just kill, like end the game, end of game sequence. That made, that made me more concerned about the Packers'

Super Bowl hopes than anything else. It was the fact that I still don't have full trust in Jordan Love. I just don't. And so that was, I thought that was really shaky. And I thought LaFleur showed he didn't fully trust Jordan Love by not letting love just try to go for the touchdown with the play calls. It seemed like it was very conservative out on the edges,

don't make a mistake. And the other thing is, I was surprised Green Bay seemingly was okay with the tie when they're going to be in a dog fight for that division and for seating, and the win is going to be way more valuable for them. So that's it. All right, what's follow up here? Would you change the OT rules, overtime rules?

and if you would, how would you change it? Yeah, people are like, oh, you shouldn't have ties or it make the period longer. I totally disagree with that. Football is a brutal, dangerous, violent sport. They do not need to be playing longer when it's the regular season. I would be totally fine with.

removing overtime. No. Removing overtime. The goal is to win in regulation. And if you don't win in regulation, it's a tie. Deal with it. I would be fine with that. And if you're not going to do that,

I like sudden death. And I know people are, you know, the first score wins. Have it be over. People are like, oh, that's unfair. Then it comes down to a coin flip. Again, if you frame the. conversation as I always have, which is the goal of the game is to win in 60 minutes.

Once you fail at that goal, randomness and variance and bad luck comes into play. And so this idea that, oh, no, they should have kept that game going is absurd. Yeah, no, definitely not that. And so, or bring back the 15 minute overtime, I don't like any of that. The goal is to win in regulation. And if you don't win in regulation, it could be, you know, it's subject to what people consider unfair. But I would be fine with getting rid of OT in the regular season entirely, personally. And I think that also would lead to some very interesting late game decisions.

like if a team is down three late in a game, do they go for a field goal knowing, all right, the best we can do now is tie or do they go for the touchdown? The team is down seven and scores a touchdown super late. Do they automatically go for two? I think those things could be interesting. All right, let's go on to some other games. So the Eagles are still undefeated, but it has not looked very good.

Hertz had zero second half passing yards. Sequin can't get it going. AJ Brown is distraught. Even with all those injuries, we talked about how much of a disadvantaged Tampa Bay was last week. They still came down. They were a Baker goal line interception away from making the game.

What's going on over there? What's going on over there in Philly? So, they just can't play a normal game. I give them a, listen, they have an excellent team. And, you know, they last, two weeks ago, they block a

field goal to win a game. This week, they get the game going with a blocked punt. You know what I mean? Like, in a block punt touchdown. It's really impressive. But two weeks ago, they had negative passing yards in the first half, and then were excellent in the second half.

This week, they were excellent in the first half, and then zero completions in the second half, and they just can't, and AJ Brown is tweeting, you know, passive aggressive scripture. He's not happy. It's, now they've had a brutal schedule and they're four and up. They played the Cowboys, the Chiefs, the Rams, the Bucks. So I'm not negging the Eagles here.

I do think that they, I called them the Chiefs of last year, last week, last week where I'm like you're undefeated but everybody's nitpicking you I now would recommend the Eagles take a page out of the chiefs of two years ago book when if you remember when the chiefs were the defending champs and they were having some struggles during the year and I brushed it off with their practicing I was like they are working on things so they are malleable during the games so they are malleable late in the year and can beat you a bunch of different ways.

And then I was proven exactly correct. I think that might be worthwhile for Philadelphia. It might be worthwhile to use some of these games to be like, hey, let's have the purpose of this game for A.J. Brown to leave it happy. let's let's draw up some in breaking over the middle routes where he never gets thrown the ball and see if see what it looks like see if jalen can be more reliable as a pure dropback passer just so we have that club in our bag it is because right now They are just playing weird games with weird vibes afterwards because one of the very best players on their team is clearly unhappy.

And the other piece of it is, Sequin is not nearly as effective this year as he was last year. Now, maybe that changes, but we're a quarter of the way through, and he's 3.1 yards per carry. He's gone for 60, 88, 46, and 43 in these games. He has 70 total receiving yards, and this is coming off one of the greatest years. Last year, he averaged a Maze 5.8 yards per carry. This year he's averaging barely half that. at 3.1. Like, that is, that's a real, I don't want to say concern,

but it's something to look at if you need to figure out, okay, if he's not dominant, what are other ways we can beat you? And so listen, Philly, they're the defending champs. They've won 20 out of 21 games or 19 out of 20 games. They've won in a bunch of different ways. I have a ton of respect for it. And I got to give Siriani credit begrudgingly.

But they're trying to get through 20 games here. And you can't have in two weeks. Like the two of the entirely 32 teams have played 4.5. games so that's a hundred and twenty eight you know games two halves a game so there's been 256 halves of football played in the NFL this year the two worst passing halves of the 256 were the first half by philadelphia two weeks ago and the second half by Philadelphia two days ago. That's weird.

And I'm not even like banging on jail in here or anything. It's just weird. And I don't know. I don't think they can ignore it just because they've been winning. All right. What else do we got? Baker was talking trash down three touchdowns. How many other quarterbacks in the lead do you think are doing that?

Maybe just Baker. And I do understand some of the Eagle fans being frustrated, like do the taunting rules not apply to this guy. But that's just Baker. There's a little bit of like the Draymond effect of, oh, he does this the entire game and always so the refs get a little, you know, numb to it. But speaking of Baker, it's a perfect segue to our brand new sponsored segment, college football's walk on Mount Rushmore, presented by Chad Powers, now streaming on Hulu and

Hulu on Disney Plus for bundle subscribers. Each of the next four weeks, I'll be revealing my Mount Rushmore of college football walk-ons, paying tribute to the legends who started with no scholarship, no spotlight, and still carved out unforgettable careers like you are going to see Chad Powers hopefully do on the new show on Hulu and Hulu on Disney Plus. Again, I've gotten a sneak preview of the show. it's really fun and we'll talk more about that later. But the first person on the Mount Rushmore of walk-ons is, of course, Baker Mayfield, who took being a walk-on twice to two time being the big 12 offensive player of the year,

was an All-American, won the Heisman. He walked on at Texas Tech and, you know, fought his way and got a starting job, but that wasn't enough for him. He then walked on at Oklahoma and had truly a record-setting college career. He left college at the time with the highest passer rating ever. His first year at Oklahoma, 36 touchdowns, seven picks, and fourth in the Heisman voting. His second year at Oklahoma, 40 touchdowns, eight picks, completed 71 percent of his passes, third in the Heisman voting and his final year at Oklahoma 43 touchdown six picks again over 70% completions first in the Heisman voting won the one the Maxwell award won the Walter Camp award

the whole nine and he had to walk on everywhere and now he's kind of been a walk on in the NFL had to walk on with the bucks kind of fight with Kyle Trask for his job and has just been you know, turned himself into a great, great player. So, uh, the first up in the walk on Mount Rushmore brought to you by Chad Powers. Now streaming on Hulu and Hulu on Disney Plus is Baker Mayfield. Make sure to check out Chad Powers for new episode streaming every Tuesday on Hulu and Hulu on Disney Plus for bundle subscribers. Hey, it's us, the Jonas Brothers. And guess what? We have some big news.

What's the news, name? Huge news. We created our own podcast called Hey Jonas. We invented a podcast? Well, we didn't invent it. We just contributed to a... We're the first people to do podcasts. Pretty, yeah, pretty wide range of podcasts throughout there. But this one's extra special. So how do we actually come up with a name Hey Jonas, guys? I honestly don't remember. I think it was on a call about what we should call it.

And we were thinking I'm originally calling it one of the early names of our band before Jonas Brothers. This is how you guys remember it going down? Yes. I have a very different memory of this. We were talking about a thing, a bit for the podcast, people could call in and say, hey, Jonas. And then I wrote down on my little notepad, Hey Jonas, and offered it up as a potential title for the podcast. But thanks for remembering that, guys. Listen to Hey Jonas on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your

podcast. Just listen. We don't care where you hear it. Another podcast from some SNL late night comedy guy, not quite. Unhumor me with Robert Smygel and friends. Me and hilarious guests from Bob Odenkirk to David Letterman help make you funnier. This week, my guest, SNL's Mikey Day and head writer Streeter Seidel, help an a cappella band with their between songs banter. Where does your group perform? We do some retirement homes. Those people are starving for banter. Listen to humor me with Robert Smigel and friends on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. The French Open is one of the toughest tests in tennis, and I know firsthand because I competed

there myself. I'm Renee Stubbs, and on the Renee Stubbs Tennis podcast, I'm breaking down everything happening at Roland Garris, every match, every upset, and what it really takes to win on clay. Jen Chinchin win. I mean, she went down in three to Rabakina, but I'm delighted. She's an outsider to win the French for me. And she likes Clay. Listen, Lernerabakina is arguably the best player in the world right now

and I actually can win on any surface because if she's serving, well, good luck. Consider this your court side seat to the French Open.

Some call it grotesque. Others say it's unleashing human potential. Either way, the podcast's Superhuman documented it all, embedded in the games and with the athletes for a full year. Within probably 10 days, I'd put on 10 pounds. I was having trouble stopping the muscle growth. Listen to Superhuman on the IHard Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

All right, DeManzai. Let's get to one more game before we get to Tyreek and some of the quick hitters. So your Jags improved a 3-1, all while making Pardy look awful. Could things have gone any better for you in this game? You hater. Well, I'm not a hater, but, I mean, Purdy came back from injury and had three turnovers.

The Jax are, the Jax are something to deal with. And you know, you know, that's the Monday night game. Oh, yeah, it's the right bowl. what you probably want to call that. Oh, yeah. Oh, nice. Nice. I like that.

I should have thought of that myself. What if Jacksonville wins? That'll be a bummer. If Jacksonville wins, you've got to take them real serious. Yeah. Because here's the deal. The Jags offense has not been that good. Like, I can't be like, oh, I told you so about Trevor.

Trevor's not been that good. He has five touchdowns, four picks, less than six yards per attempt to 75 rating. That's not their story. Their story is, last year, this is such a crazy stat that I want to make sure it's correct. I know it's correct, but I just want to double check it. Their takeaways? It's their takeaways compared to last year. So I'm double checking this.

Last year, the Jaguars, yeah, it is. correct. How many takeaways do you think the Jacksonville Jaguars had last season? I'll go three. Well, that's crazy. But it's you played the game poorly.

You played the game poorly. You went so low. You went so low that it's no longer crazy what I'm saying. I should have said this. The second, the second worst team in takeaways last year were the

Browns and the Patriots with 12. The Jags had nine. They had nine takeaways all season. This year, they have 13. They have 13 takeaways through four games. They had nine takeaways through 17 last year. So that's been the story. The defense has been excellent.

Liam Cohen's fired up wanting to fight Bob Sala. Bob Sal is threatening to end his effing life. Whole thing. But the Jags, because the Texans have been such a mess, the cults came back down to Earth a bit. The Jags are a legitimate team. The Colts, though, hey, I mean, came down to Earth a little bit. That team is serious, though. That team is serious.

That was an impressive game even in the loss. Yeah. But like if we were, right now, it's hard to make. and AFC top five and not really consider including the Jags. And the Niners, on the other hand, I just, Purdy's trying to do a little too much. And now they play Thursday night. Pierceall got added to the injury report. Purdy went back on the injury report.

I think the Niners could be in real, real trouble. All right. So I want to talk about Tyreek for a second here. first I want to say this I think the internet can be real shitty at times and the whole like oh Tyreek was so sick of playing with Tua he's clapping and smiling

guys if you guys because when he was carted off the field he seemed like euphoric almost yeah guys I do not think you should take anything away from how a person is reacting moments after they suffer a truly, even by NFL standards, catastrophic injury as far as

what the shock and the adrenaline and the emotion, what that does to your brain. Like, that is, I would imagine, as close to being not sober, like the way being. hammered can impact your brain, I would imagine that's similar. So I'm not, I thought that was crummy, even by modern internet standards. And listen, I'm not trying to defend across the board, you know, Tyreek, the guy. But I thought that was unfair. Here's the other thing, man. That is the type of injury to Monzae that he could be out for all of next year.

that's as bad as it gets. The knee dislocation is not a knee cap dislocation. It is a true full knee dislocation with all the ligament tears that go along with it. And I don't know if he comes back. And he's the type of game to use the speeds. That's the type. Right. That's the thing.

I don't know what that will do to his ability to be an impactful player. And so it does feel at least kind of appropriate to at least look at if this is it for Tyree Kill, which it might be. Tyree Kill the football player is quite simply one of the greatest receivers any of us have ever seen, and that is not an overstatement. The only receivers, I'm going to try to do this off the top of my head, but I want to just pull up like all-time receiving touchdowns just to, make sure I'm not forgetting anybody, you know, obvious.

I'm trying to think the only receivers that, without a shadow of a doubt, you know, I feel I'd rather have than Tyreek. Moss, Jerry Rice are, you know what, that's the list for me. I'm not saying he's the third greatest receiver ever. And in fact, he definitionally isn't, you know, because it, you know, didn't play long enough and all, you know, all of that. But as far as guys that hands down were better than him, the only guys that I can say were hands down better than Tyreek, for me, are Moss and Jerry Rice. now Megatron

TO those guys you can obviously make a very strong case were better than him I don't know if I agree with that case I Tyreek was such a dynamic

indefensible weapon that I just, if you believe he's one of the five greatest receivers of all time, I think that's a legitimate opinion. Didn't have one, if it is over for him, and again, it's crazy, we're talking about this, but it's on the board, it's over. Obviously didn't have one of the five greatest careers of all time. like my old co-host, my pal Chris Carter, had a better career than Tyreek.

Marvin Harrison and Larry Fitzgerald had better careers than Tyreek. But as far as guys who I would rather have, I think it's Moss, Rice, Tio's tough. Tio was, as great as T.O. was, as great as T. was, his peak was not Tyreeks' peak. This guy is a five-time first-team all-pro and is receiving yards after his rookie year ago, 1,500, 800, he was injured, 1,200, 1,200, and then leaves Kansas City and goes

1,700, 1,800. And in the playoffs, he was, I mean, he averaged. averaged 80 yards per game in the postseason with seven postseason touchdowns, eight postseason touchdowns. I, he Jones. No, seven postseason touchdowns. What's up?

D. Jones in the chat says, is Tyreek a Hall of Famer if he never comes back? Oh, first ballot. It's not even, that's like, that's not debatable. I mean, being a five-time first-team all-pro is bananas. Being a guy who is, how many, one, two, three, four, eight-time pro bowler in what, five-time, this is his 10th year. And so this year, if it gets wiped out, he will have played nine years and was a first-team all-pro, five of them. and his average for his career, his average season was 1,300 yards and 10 touchdowns.

I mean, he's just one of the greatest players I've ever seen. So that's my, I hope it's not over for him, but man, it is, it's certainly on the board that it's over for him. crazy so thinking about upgrading to the all new iphone 17 pro designed to be the most powerful iphone ever but you're also are you also thinking about the traffic on your way to the store or that headache of transferring all your data well good news when you order a new phone online with boost mobile they'll send an expert to your home or work to deliver your brand new iphone 17 pro and get you all set up on Boost Mobile within minutes, no hassle.

Yeah, it was Thursday night. Listen, the Seahawks got to be taken seriously. The defense playing really well. Mike McDonald's got that team going

on the right direction and Darnold's been way better than I expected. Like I got to be hand up and be like I might have been wrong about this. I killed the Seahawks for what I thought was getting worse at quarterback going from Gino to Darnold. That has not been a downgrade at this point. It's been an upgrade right now. So credit words do. Seahawks have to be taken seriously. Next.

Dublin game. Steelers defeat the Vikings 24 to 21. Hand up on this one too. I did not think the Steelers be able to keep Rogers upright. Instead, he threw every pass within a, well, and he just got rid of it so fast. And he was super efficient. It was like 18 of 22 for 200 yards. And Carson Wentz was just awful.

They almost found a way to blow it at the end or at least have me closer than they should have. The Steelers, that's a great win for them. Next. A Giants defeat the charges 21 to 18. Upset of the week, huh? Upset of the week and Amarian Hampton had 12 carries for 130 yards. In a game that was close against a rookie quarterback when you couldn't block well for them to not let Hampton, they called 45 dropbacks and 12 runs.

It was the Chargers did. It was crazy. And Joe Walt got hurt in that game, which is really concerning for them. That was a brutal, brutal game for the Chargers. What do you want to say? Go ahead. You think they would have won that game with Russell Wilson? The Giants?

No. Yeah. I think Dart, I think Dart was an upgrade for them. Even though he didn't like play great, he was an upgrade for them and gave him an energy boost. And the obviously other story, sadly is Malik Neighbors done for the year with an ACL. Odell Beckham said it was the Giants turf. Next. Bills to feed the Saints, 31 to 19.

Not an impressive game from Buffalo. The Saints down five in the fourth quarter. Throw a touchdown pass to take a fourth quarter lead. The pass gets overturned on review and the catch does and they were right. They end up kicking a field goal. Josh has a great scramble on third and five to basically ice the game. But that was a two point game in the fourth quarter and it could have been Saints lead. in the fourth quarter. The bills, oddly, have not looked great the last couple weeks.

The Dolphins game was not that impressive. The Saints game was not impressive. Now, luckily for them, they've gone Ravens and then Jets, Dolphins, Saints. And so the schedule is allowed for it. But that defense has to get better flatly. They score 30 every week. The defense has to get better. Next. Falcons defeat the commanders, 34, 27. Listen, not much takeaway on the commander's side because no Jaden Daniels, but for the Falcons, it's a nice bounce back game by Pennix. And he needed it after that horrible, horrible loss, 30 to nothing to the Panthers. That was a really nice bounce back game by Pennix. Next.

Texans defeat the Titans, 26 to 0. I took the Titans plus the points. We can't. Yeah, I'm not doing. We can no longer. Brian Callahan's a can't bet under any circumstances. Now, it should be said, if you didn't watch this game, good for you. But also, it was 6-0 in the fourth quarter.

The Texans offense was struggling mightily. And then in the fourth quarter finally got clicking. Now, maybe that's a sign of things to come. Maybe it's the Titans were, you know, kind of gave up. But that was an ugly game. And I got to think Brian Callahan's days are numbered at this point. That Titans team looks like far in a way the worst. team in the league again. Next.

Patriots defeat the Panthers, 42 to 13. Drake Mays playing ball. You know, they, they, the Patriots played well against Pittsburgh moving the ball, but they turned it over five times. They clean that up in this game and they annihilate the Panthers. And speaking of days being numbered, Bryce is, Bryce is in trouble, buddy. He had that nice little stretch at the end of last year, but Bryce has been brutal. Patriots, huge game for the Patriots, Patriots bills. And by the way, for the Patriots,

if they can somehow upset the bills and get to three and two, their next three games, De Manzee, Saints, Titans, Browns. Saints, Titans, Browns in a row. It's unbelievable. The Patriots have games left. Saints, Titans, Browns, two games against the Jets. Another game against the dolphins, the Bengals, and the Giants. What a schedule for New England. It's unbelievable. Next. Watch out.

Lions defeat the Browns, 34 to 10. Flacco's got to be done. I mean, the defense can only do so much. They got to, this is going just according to plan for Shador, actually. Yeah. Because Flacco's been awful. If you, the, idea being flacco gets benched early enough that there's time for Gabriel to go in and then

he gets benched and then Shador gets the end of the season. I think that's how this plays out. Next. Rams defeat the Colts 27 to 20. Listen, the story of this game is A.D. Mitchell. Yeah. A.D. Mitchell making an unbelievable catch and run after, and then just the ball slipping out of his hands. He wasn't setting it down, but he was trying to extend it, slips out of his hands. And then he also had a hold on a Jonathan Taylor touchdown, or else this is different. A great Matt Stafford game, great Matt Stafford game, and Tutu Atwell with the game winner.

That's a great win for the Rams. Next. Bears defeat the Raiders, 25, 24. Listen, Gino's been brutal. Ashton Genty, though, looked like Ashton Genty for the first time since Boise State. Got back to his little upright pre-snap style and looked like his old self. The Bears feel like, all right, we got to two and two. We have the buy. Everything's settled.

Yeah, great win. And then last night, the one game we didn't talk about, Broncos to beat the Bengals, 28 to 3. ugly, the Bengals are in real, real trouble. Chase is frustrated. And credit words do, after a very shaky open in the game, Bo Nix made a great throw right before halftime that essentially ended the game. Aikman and Buck had no interest in that game at all. And the Broncos get to two and two steady themselves.

And the question of the Bengals is, are they going to call about Kurt Cousins or Russell Wilson, or are they going to ride with Browning? And so we'll see. And the other Monday night game we talked about, I guess, a little bit of Tyreek injury. The Dolphins beat the Jets. Justin Beals had one sick play, but the Jets don't know how to do it. I had a crazy bet on that game last night. I can't believe I'm bringing it up.

But I had the over three and a half on the punts and under on two as yardage. And then I had Justin Fields for a touchdown pass, which he did not throw until the end of the game. And then the dolphins couldn't pick up like 15 yards. ended up having to punt it at the end to give it to the Jets. Oh, so you what, it's a crazy bet that you would have won but didn't?
