The Josh Innes Show - Ball Don't Lie For The Broncos

Episode Date: January 19, 2026

I'm really, really rooting against Sean Payton. In 10 years, I'll love him. I thank him for all he did for the Saints. But, right now, I want him to lose. He deserved to lose after the refs screwed the Bills. Is Payton losing his QB the ultimate "Ball Don't Lie" moment? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

You know, I haven't even got, I've spent all this time talking about the Texans and talking about, talking about other shit about random shows. Sean Payton, who I'm rooting against very, very hard. They stole the game from Buffalo, by the way. I love to talk about like what happens, like the butterfly effect. Like what happens if somebody steps on a butterfly in a different era? And then what happens after that? Like how it impacts life. Right.

Same thing like with John Harbaugh. If the kicker makes the kick a couple of weeks ago for Baltimore, does John Harbaugh still have a job? Or does he just get fired the next week? What happens? Does Tomlin get fired before the playoff game? Like what happens? If they make the right call on that play, and to me, you're not going to convince me otherwise that it's like the guy caught the fucking ball. He's on the ground with the ball.

He gets the ball stripped from him. If that's not a fucking catch, then I don't know what a catch is. So if that actually is rule the catch and they kick the field goal and they go to the AFC championship game, Sean McDermott has a job. Now, who's to say that if they lose in the AFC championship game to the Patriots, he still doesn't get fired. Maybe he was destined to be fired. Like anything less than a Super Bowl than maybe, you know, anything less than a Super Bowl,

he was going to be fired anyway. But that was a catch, bro. And if you're not going to call that a catch, I don't know what a catch is. And then later in the Bears game There was another play that was very similar That was rule to catch I'm like what the fuck are we doing And then like here's my biggest take away from that

You've got the biggest game on the planet right now going on Big playoff game jobs obviously were on the line Because Homeboy lost the game and lost his job Sean McDermott The shit that we review for 45 minutes The shit that we watch and have to sit through a whole review There was no review There was no replays ever

it. There was no like, hey, we're going to go under the hood and really dive into this. It's, ah, fuck it on to the next one. Huh? What are we doing? And then, like, how does the NFL pick and choose when to do an expedited review? Like, sometimes it'll just be like, oh, look, there's a review. Oh, it took 13 nanoseconds. It took a blink.

It took one blink, and it was done. Yet, the biggest play of the season, and it was just kind of, of like, oh, fuck it. I think we got this one right. Like, how do we determine that? How do we determine the plays that get a 45-minute review? And how do we get the, oh, they just, like, before the announcers can even say there's going to be a review, there's a review.

How do we determine that? Devastating for Josh Allen, though. Because, I mean, look, bro, like, you don't bounce back from this. Like, in terms of reputation in terms of who you are. Like, first of all, people wouldn't have given you much credit for beating this lineup but quarterbacks anyway because there's no Mahomes, no Burrow, no Lamar. We hear it all the fucking time. It gets tiresome, right?

So you don't hear that all that often. Or like you hear that way too often. But what you end up with here when you start talking about Allen is it was kind of a damned if you do, damned if you don't. If you would have finally won the Super Bowl, the majority of people just would have said, hey, you know what? He'd just beat a bunch of dipshits. Cool.

Didn't really mean anything. Got to beat Mahomes to do it or got to get through Mahomes or somebody of value. And then if you lose, then you're really fucked. And that's what happened to him. He lost and he's really fucked in terms of the perception. It's like when people, I had some guy that kept trying to get me to do celebrity boxing when I was in Philadelphia. He kept off in celebrity boxing, celebrity boxing. Like, I'm never going to fucking do that.

He's like, you should fight Mike Misenelli, celebrity boxing. I'm like, well, first of all, he's not going to do that. And I'm not going to do that. But what benefit do I get? If I beat the shit out of some 70-year-old lesbian, I'm going to ask. If I get my ass kicked by a 70-year-old lesbian, I'm an asshole. There's no situation that comes of this where I'm not an asshole. So why would I do it?

And that's kind of like where you kind of find yourself with Josh Allen. Josh Allen was a fucked if you do, fucked if you don't. Because now, you know, you win that. But at least if you win it, you say you have a Super Bowl. At least you have a case. You can say, I don't give a fuck who I had to beat. You know, it's like when people fuck with the, the rockets for winning two titles in the Jordanless years. You still won them.

Would you prefer they hadn't have won them? Like that would be your option, right? Like if your other option is like, well, we lost the two titles without Jordan, then you're a real fucking loser. At least if you won it, you can at least fight the fight and say, we would have beaten Jordan anyway. So really shitty situation for Josh Allen, like real turd burger of a situation for him. Like, woof. I can see why the guy was sobbing at the fucking podium. You lost to fucking Bo Nix.

You lost to Bo Nix in the play. playoffs. When everything was out in front of you, when the whole path was laid there, like, look, I get it when you can't beat Mahomes. Mahomes is this fucking magician. You can't beat him. He is your kryptonite. I get it. The whole path was laid out in front of Josh Allen. He had a path to go through. And what did he do instead? What did Josh Allen do? They shit the bed. And then they fired the coach. And everybody cried. The players cried. Everybody cried. I would cry too. Because you were given a layup. You were given a clear path and you fucked it up. You blew it. You have to win that game. And I get that you're on the road, whatever. That's both fucking Knicks. That's Sean Payton. You know what Sean Payton does in the playoffs?

Gags. That's who Sean Payton is. As someone who's a Saints fan, I know it seems ridiculous because I'm wearing a Texan's hoodie and a Detroit Tigers hat. I am a Saints fan. And yes, thank you, Sean Payton for winning a Super Bowl. It was very nice of you. but I also look at that last great run of the Saints that resulted in no Super Bowl appearances. And in that run, you lost playoff games to Case Keenham and Kirk Cousins at home and Jared Gough. Before that, you lost playoff games to a seven and nine shitty Seattle team.

And you lost to Alex Smith. So that's what Sean Payton does. That's who he is. So you couldn't even beat that guy. And he finds ways to lose home playoff games that he shouldn't lose. With the Saints. He let Kirk Cousins march down the field in overtime. Never let the Saints touch the ball back in the old overtime rules.

Never let them touch the ball. Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, touchdown game over. At home in the Superdome. and they had to rally to tie the game the Saints did in that playoff game. Oh, I forgot about Nick Foles. They let Nick Folls. Actually, no, I take that back. They beat Nick Foles twice now that I think about it.

They beat him in 13 and they beat him in 18, but let's be real, they should have lost to Nick Foles. If Alshon Jeffrey doesn't let an easy pass go through his hands, the Saints were going to give up the touchdown in that situation. They were going to lose because the Saints had missed a field goal before that. They could have put them up nine and they were going to lose by a point. What pissed me off in watching the Broncos is as a Saints fan, the Saints always blow those playoff games. Broncos didn't. Now, they basically did.

The refs gave them the game. That also pissed me up. Explain to me how now Sean Payton is getting the calls from the refs. Explain to me how now Sean Peyton gets the benefit of a bad call. Explain to me how Sean Payton's team comes through with the big win in the playoffs and doesn't choke it away. Fuck you, Sean Payton. Eat a dick. When I see Saints fans

that are like, I'm pulling for Sean Payton. You're a cuck. Eat shit. I ain't. And look, the second he's done coaching, I'll blow the guy.

I'd be like, I love Sean Payton. What a run. It was a great 20 years in New Orleans. I don't want that guy to fucking win. I'm a bitter son of a bitch. I'm not going to sit here and tell you

that I think Sean, I'm happy for Sean Payton. Fuck that dude. That dude tried to bolt on the Saints to go coach Tom Brady in Miami. That fell through. Then he quit. And then decides to come back.

Fuck you. leaving us with goddamn Dennis Allen, you shit stick. Fuck you. And also good for Dennis Allen losing too. I got tired of hearing about how great Dennis Allen is, too, for the Bears. I'm also sick of the fucking Bears. Miracle workers. My God, they are going to go 6 and 11 next year, and it's going to be sexy.

I can't wait to watch the Bears go 6 and 11. I actually like Caleb. I think Caleb's kind of fucking good. I think it's kind of a G. Like, yes, that's a miracle play. They ran to tie the game at the end. It was a miracle. I really hate Ben Johnson.

the bears fall into that category of like the New York Knicks where all the media talk all great about them like the whole world's supposed to give a shit about all this but like whatever so but next year when the miracles cease for the bears and then the bears start playing a tougher group of teams they will start to lose and I will enjoy it the bears will go six and 11 next year And then Ben Johnson won't be a genius anymore. And Caleb ain't going to be this great story anymore. I will enjoy this thoroughly. They are going to go six and 11, maybe seven and ten. Maybe. It's probably what we're looking at here. But anyway, so there's that.

I'm glad the bears have finally died. I look forward to watching Sean Luz. Hey, look, I think that's real talk. That's kind of nature working itself out. That's a ball don't lie situation. It sucks that Nix had to get hurt. for the ball don't lie situation to come about. But it's a ball don't lie situation because the bills had the game stolen from them by the refs.

It is a ball don't lie scenario. And then what happens in turn? You lose your quarterback. Ball don't lie. Oh, Sean Peyton relishes these opportunities, guys. Let me tell you, Sean Peyton loves a challenge. Does he really love the challenge of Jared Stidham having to take him to the Super Bowl? This motherfucker got to one Super Bowl with Drew Breeze.

Do you think he's over here like, boy, I cannot wait. I cannot wait for that opportunity, guys. I am foaming at the mouth for the opportunity to take Jared Stidham to the fucking Super Bowl. Everybody's waiting for that moment until it actually fucking happens. Then you know what happens when it happens? Dick. Nothing happens. So he can, like, I'm watching all these people blow Sean Payton for this.

Oh, he loves these opportunities. This is a right. He is locked. Sean Payton lives for this moment to try to take this challenge. I wish he would have been up for the challenge when Kirk fucking cousins beat you in the Superdome in the playoffs. Or the challenge of not losing to Case Keenham in the fucking playoffs. That's what I would have appreciated.

But great, he likes the challenge of Jared Stidham. Eat a dick. Eat a whole bushel basket of dick, Sean. Good for you. I would have preferred you lost with your starting quarterback, but I'll take you losing with Jared Stidham. Everybody loves it until it comes down to him. it and then you lose.

Somebody brought up, what if he just would bring back Drew Breeze and they'd make it? I'd kill myself. Right here on YouTube. I would do it live for everybody. I would just pull a gun out and be like, it's over. I would hang myself. I would, Brooks was here. If somehow, like, Drew Breeze

did a fat fill move and comes out of retirement and Sean and Drew Breeze somehow win the game against the Patriots and go to the Super Bowl and win it, I would hang myself in front of everybody. And then for my luck, the weak-ass ceilings in this building would collapse on my fat ass, and it would just be embarrassing. But that's what would happen.

Thank you, John. It would be good for views. I like doing the podcast with an audience, though, because it gives me a little bit more juice. When you're talking to yourself, you don't really have any juice. When you get reactions from people, you get nice juice, and even if it's a few people, again, this is the first time I've done this in a million years. Now, just because you watch this, doesn't mean you should not at least download the podcast. because the podcast is where I actually get some cash for this until I start trying to find other ways to do it. But the podcast is a good way for me to make a couple of bucks.

So still download, even if I do this consistently, which maybe I will, maybe I won't. This is just a day off. So I came up here. Had to do some shit anyway. So I just decided to do this in here. If you guys watch this, still download the podcast and subscribe to the actual podcast so I can make a couple of bucks. And that'll give me more reason to do it. Huh? How about that?

And just like that, you've just been rewarded with an hour plus of content here on a day off. What a blessed day. But anyway, I guess I got to go because I got more work to do. But you guys are awesome. Again, make sure you like and subscribe and whatever. Again, I don't know how all this shit. I'm just saying the shit that I hear people on YouTube videos say all the time. The DoorDash podcast were low-key hilarious.

And they would have been great had my shit worked in the car because I had plans on just doing live like drive-alongs with DoorDash. but my shit wouldn't work. So it was kind of a failure in that way. I still got those 4790 podcast saved on my old iPhone. God, that is lovely. Oh, bell notification. Oh, yeah, I forgot about you. You got to slap that like button or what do they say.

You got to smack the bell. So there's there. King Blinks as I started door dashing since I lost my job. It really isn't all that bad. And if you try to ignore the fact that you're using a lot of gas to do it, Like, you'll get a check, it'll be like 500 bucks. You'll be like, well, shit, I say a check. You'll get a direct deposit for like 500 bucks.

You're like, well, isn't all that bad. Then you realize you probably spent $497 on gas and you just broke even. But boy, it sure feels good to get a direct deposit, doesn't it? It's nice. Anyway, I will go now, again, make sure you like and keep subscribing to the podcast. Podcasts called All Up NS, as you know. And I would appreciate it. You guys are awesome.

And thank you.
