Hello, beautiful people, and welcome to our Humberlobo, the Thundado. On this magical overreaction Monday, September 15th, 2025, this program begins now. Football! It's the greatest. We just finished the second NFL Sunday slate. We have two Monday night football games tonight. One of them will start at around 7.30. The other one's starting way too late. None of us are going to be able to watch it.

But if we do happen to be up at that time, we got two games. the night that are going to be magical until about 2 a.m. And then when we wake up tomorrow, we'll be able to wrap up the entire week two of the NFL slate. But until then, we'll just have to chit-chat about what happened yesterday. Buccaneers, Texans, Chargers, Raiders, college ball was great. The NFL Sunday was great. I was watching Red Zone at the beginning early because we had to travel downtown to

Indianapolis because the Colts hosted their first game of the season, their second game of the season, I'm sorry, and the Broncos came in there. first and only non-one 1 o'clock game of the year. Okay, so 1 o'clock slate across the board. This is a 4 o'clocker. Big one. Yeah, had to take... Last year, all 1 o'clock days. That's right.

So this kind of did change the entire routine a little bit yesterday. So I found myself like, all right, at the very beginning, I might have to catch on it, and then I'm going to have to drive down, then I'm going to catch back up. I was on Red Zone. The first six minutes of Red Zone were just, bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb. Then he said something, Maria Taylor, last night,

said something along the lines of, like, highest scoring at the NFL Sunday through the first 10 games ever or second highest of all time. It was explosive yesterday early from 1 o'clock all the way through the ending. Sunday night football. Wow.

Must watch, must stay awake type game last night. One of the Vikings, I think we're all going to try to figure out. Shout to the Falcons. We just keep that thing moving forward. But it's not just me here, chit-chat today. No, we've got a great group of people stopping by. Sheffter will join us in about 14 minutes or so. Then we have Terrence Crawford in the second hour.

But fresh out of a massive Saturday night in Las Vegas, where he is the undisputed super middleweight champion of the world. 42-0 and O after a massive win over Canelo Alvarez in what people are calling the fight of the century, and now he's being called the fighter of the century. We don't know all the financials, but we're thinking, bud, won potentially $50 million. So we are incredibly thankful that he is joining us, fresh off a massive win. People thought maybe the weight this disparage was going to be a problem. Canella a little heavier, obviously.

Terrence had to go up. Afterwards, Terrence Crawford said, Canella wasn't even the hardest hitter. A lot of people think because Canella's a hard hitter and he's heavier than Terrence, that could potentially feel a little different whenever that thing's coming at the body. Now, Terrence wasn't getting peppered too much. He took a couple shots to the head for sure. But he said it wasn't the hardest hitter he's ever fought.

And he looked very comfortable, prepared for that entire thing. And now Bud can say he's the greatest fighter on Earth. And he should feel very comfortable saying that. We'll get a chance to chat with him about 140. Then we have Adam Ray, you know, comedian. You know him, he's Dr. Phil, Joe Biden. He was also Vince McMahon and Young Rock. Amongst other things, he's in Indianapolis.

He's at the game with us. He'll join us for a third hour whenever we go digital in this entire thing. The boys are here. Talks at the table at Boston Corner. Whoa, whoa, well. New England Patriots get a big time win. At Ty Schmidt. Congrats to you as well.

Thank you. Thank you. Not one half of the hammer died. Cowboys, AP tone. Oh no, no. Oh no. Oh no. Pittsburgh Steelers lose their home opener against the Seattle Seahawks.

We will certainly chat about that throughout the day. Pittsburgh Steelers fans a little bit, uh, a little bit intrigued on what's about to take place. Who are we more mad at? Okay, who is it? Justin Fields kind of did his thing. Yes, he did. Real good part. More than kind.

just kind of does his thing. Yeah. We've got a 41-year-old quarterback, two picks. Certainly problematic. The hell is going on with the defenses side of the ball. There's a lot of convoes happening in Pittsburgh. Are you okay? One to 10 panic level, 10 being full panic one,

being before the season when you guys were winning the Super Bowl. Panic level was at a 10 yesterday. Then I heard my leader, Aaron Rogers, say, it's only a week, too. We're good. So I'm back down to a zero. Wow. That's the type of leadership they don't talk about with Aaron Rogers.

He doesn't mean that. He does not mean that. I get it, and you're right, because I've been in those shoes before. Hey, don't panic. Don't panic. This guy's out of 10. He's out of 10. He may not say it, but we all know this guy is out of 10.

Yeah, as he should be, maybe. There's another team that maybe should be panicking a little bit more in this particular Thunderdown. Let's go to the other half of the hammer. Don, Cowboys, Bubba Gumpino, the dolphins are. dead already pal i saw you chanting NFL over the weekend and i see you're wearing a west virginia tarp uh what's going on for the rest of the season line it's a quick one it was a quick NFL season this year yeah i'd argue it was over after the first quarter at the loudhouse to be fair i mean this team is absolute shite willie gay is maybe the best player at camp he's played two snaps all

season came on the field yesterday makes a tackle makes another tackle for a five-yard loss doesn't play again. Then two is throwing picks all over the place, missing Tyreek Hill. It's just, it's a disaster. I saw McDaniel's head down. You guys were in the game, though. It got an actual dog fight with the New England Patriots. You guys were in that thing.

You might have won that thing. A couple times we take a kick, a punt, then they take a kick. I mean, that was like an electrifying game. But now we're celebrating Mike Vrabble's first win as New England Patriot head coach. Yeah, you're damn right. And we're celebrating Drake May, baby. 19 and 23, 2.30. He's running all over the place.

There's a very similar play to Anthony Richardson where he got blitzed off the side. Drake sees it immediately escapes the pocket. I mean, it's just one of those things where you look at it. And maybe we don't this year. But you know, I can see it. You know, you can see a Lombardi on the horizon. You can see Drake May and Mike Vrable raising one together. And after the game, you know, not everyone sees the postgame stuff.

It's not for everybody. Vrable said, hey, it will always be all about the players. I don't care. That's my first one. This is you boys. Him and May are very, very close. They had a great little interaction. And that throw right there, that's the play of the day. Down by five late in the third quarter. Patriots need to have one.

Ramandre Stevenson, who actually kind of revealed his father passed away. It's been real tough for him during the offseason. This was kind of his play. He said his dad would have loved the game he had. Didn't score. But here's the cookie right there. Oh, oh, oh. Nice try.

Nice try, baby. We got an athlete at QB now. Yeah, Drake May, good, maybe Patriots, bad was a thought yesterday as the Miami Dolphins were winning that game. Sure. And then all of a sudden the Patriots come back and win. It's like, nope, we got the it factor. What are we even talking about? We're going to lose.

These games have been magical in the storylines are obviously developing greatly. I don't know if any of those teams are going to be in the first 15. Let's go to nine-year NFL vet. Derrish Jay Ballard. Debuts, great football yesterday across the board. The NFL is swinging a hot bat, so is college ball. It was. You know, obviously we're all in the liehouse. yesterday, so it's hard to even see outside of what was going on in that building with the

start that this team has had, especially on the offices side of the ball. Some beat downs kind of around the league. We've got a lot of things to cover. Yeah, on that note, ladies and gentlemen, it is time for the first 15. Please put the clock up. Here we go. And let's get started. Number five to debutsches points.

The best brought some beat downs across the board. Now, obviously, the Baltimore Ravens and Lamar Jackson, they're good. Chuck Pagano back in a much better way this week than he was. maybe after week one, he's celebrating the greatest passing quarterback in the history of the NFL. Lamar Jackson's passer rating is now the highest in the history of the league. Look at him holding the ball right there. No, Laces doesn't need them. Oh yeah, he also happens to run a fortune is the most elusive guy on the field. So not only can he get it done as a running back, a quarterback with his arm being the best ever, he's also got an entire team around him,

filled with absolute dogs. They end up beating the hell out of the Browns. Forty-one, 17, Dbutcher, thoughts on this game. I mean, this game just absolutely dominated on the offensive side of a lot of chirping. I think Conman touched on it last week. A lot of chirping between both of these two teams in the headlines and the Ravens got it done. Browns did do a good job with Derek

Henry kind of sealing him up, but Lamar Jackson, you mentioned it, the all-time leader, passing raider rating, and also the all-time leader at the quarterback position when it comes to rushing yard. So a beat down within the division here, Ravens Browns. Let's talk about in the division beat downs. Guess who's back?

back again brand new lions are back tell some friends MCDC MCDC MCDC's got the boys buzzing the Detroit Lions 52 Chicago Bears

21 at the beginning of those Chicago Bears scored 14 points early so it looked like oh no the lions stink this is the same old lines maybe Kelvin Shepard former teammate of ours friend of ours should not be handling

his press conference is the way he's handling him. Maybe he was speaking a little bit too much cart before the horse where he's saying we don't make excuse to play football had a little bit of an edge to him. Hey, you haven't done anything as a DC is what some people were saying about this man. And then 14 points are scored pretty early by the Chicago Bears. Everybody's like, wait a minute.

Is this Lions team going to let Caleb Williams, Ben Johnson, come into their house roar all over their faces in a revenge game. And then all of a sudden something just went like that. And poof. The brand new lion showed back on. Same old lions for a while, then the brand new lions showed up. And I'll tell you, they just kept on going.

Yeah, they did. And they ran that shit down their throat. Ben Johnson, obviously, coming back into town. Welcome back, Bob. We appreciate you going to the division rival out of all the different places you could have went. Players mentioned that, fans mentioned that, and MCDC treated the game that way. Are we all the way back to just believe in the lions of the brand new lions and just get rid of what we saw in week one against Green Bay Packers, who might be the best team involved? The Packers might be the best team in ball.

Yeah, I'm all the way back on the Lions. I wasn't too far out. It's week one. You know, week one is all about just getting a win. How can you figure out a way to get a win? Obviously, they didn't get it done. It takes time. It takes time to build some continuity with the play callers, with the players.

Jared Gough looked like his old self, getting the ball around, had the running game going. Gibbs, Montgomery, St. Brown, they all scored, I believe, for the ninth time, which is the most by any trio in NFL history. Saw the out. So I love that goof kit in there. And I love the saltiness. I love the saltiness by the Lions fans, Ben Johnson coming back. Way to welcome back, putting a 50 burger up on the board. Yeah, 52 must be nice.

Foxy today, a little bit better than one week ago from today? Yeah, we're all the back, all the way back. Super Bowl is on. Three touchdowns for St. Brown, a touchdown for Jamo, a touchdown for Sonic and Knuckles. Jared Goff, five touchdown passes. No, not ass and cheek. Jared Goff, five touchdown passes, no turnovers.

They looked incredible. them all the way back. Congrats to Detroit. We didn't want to celebrate your demise, but it did look like it was coming right in front of our eyes. And instead, you're all the way back. Yep. Did MCD's and them lines move that rock out of the cave?

Sure felt like it there. They are all the way back. That was a huge statement for week two. And then let's talk about the team that also, you talk about the Packers, maybe being the best team in ball. There's a team up there in Buffalo that had hard knocks. That's the current MVP. Buffalo Bills just absolutely.

smack the New York Jets. As we're watching this game take place, we're all wondering to ourselves, oh, no, this might not be good for a Steelers. This might not be good for the Steelers because the Jets looked very good against Pittsburgh Steelers. Justin Fields all over the place, spinning it, running it. The defensive intensity and accountability for the New York Jets was exactly what we thought it would be under Aaron Glenn's head coaching leadership, but then inevitably what happened was the Buffalo Beals were the Buffalo Beals.

They end up winning 30 to 10 over the New York Jets. A couple division blowouts here. What does that say to you, D. Budge? You know, division opponents. They mean a little bit more during the season. You want to send the message to everyone. And one of my favorite things I love to see in the National Football League, when a guy who's deserving some money gets his money,

and then he shows up and shows out early and off. And that was James Cook yesterday. It wasn't pretty as far as a stat sheet for Josh Allen. If you had some parlays or some prop bets, you probably didn't hit a bunch of them, but he did his thing, took care of the ball, had some runs. Had a little scary injury there with his nose.

But he came back, finished the game. just an all-around dominant performance in the AFC East with the bills over the New York Football Jets. I think Josh Allen probably appreciates the fact that he's going to have the photo with the... Yeah, the thing. Yeah, the thing. He's probably not fun. I'm not saying it's a good thing, and it's going to suck the sleep. You know, that's going to sneezing.

Oh, my God. And we're getting into cold season, too. Josh? Vitamin C. Yeah. Get it. He all can't be sneezing with that entire situation. Obviously, getting punched.

the face is no funny. He's tough, son. I mean, there's no questions asked. So there were some beat downs yesterday. Congrats to the teams that showcase that they are great. Either once again or we'll continue to do as such. Let's go number four. Team to everybody thought was going to be great. He spent all the money this weekend, or this offseason.

Oh, oh. Borrow breaks his toe. They're saying he's at least three months. Oh, Joe. He was healthy in training camp. They paid his wide receivers. They get Hendrickson back. Shamar Stewart said, okay, the clause. Everything that was kind of tumultuous, ended up being smooth sailing.

This is going to be the best Cincinnati bank. Holy hell, they won a game. Yeah. Now they got home. Sam Hubbard's the ruler of the jungle. Need to be calling the crowd, get in there a little bit earlier. We want this place to be electrifying. Is Trevor Lawrence, Liam Cohen, come into town? And they get a win.

Congrats to the Bengals, get a huge win. Could have lost that game multiple times. Did a huge win. And that's a positive. They can't buy a break. No, they can't. This team cannot buy. a break in Cincinnati. They try to buy their players out. They're trying to pay everybody.

They're trying to run a new business. We're going to sell the rights to the stadium and we're going to build an indoor facility. They're trying, I think, to become a team that is, you know, kind of showing respect to the football gods. Like, hey, we understand the power of having an NFL team and responsibility of having a team in our city of Cincinnati. We want to do it right. They were doing it. It seems like they were doing it all. They had everybody. And then boom, Week two, Joe Burrow was 7 to 13 for 76 yards and a Tud. Okay, let's assume that just continues.

He just has a great game in front of Sam Hubbard, a ruler of the jungle. And he gets standard tackle here by Eric Armstead. Bang, tow, out, three months. That sucks for the Bengals, but that's a huge storyline for the AFC going forward. Yeah, it is. It does. It sucks so bad.

They were doing everything, Pat. You said it. They paid everyone who we said, you can't pay all those guys and keep them. They won the first two weeks of the year. They never win the first few weeks ever And then this this happens to Joe Burrow And I saw this edit last night And I did not like it It was Joe Burrow

And it was it flashed Andrew Luck And then it was Joe Burrow And then it flashed Andrew Luck It was Joe Burrow It kept going It was intense It was like oh no These guys

They started their career With all these injuries They're this incredibly talented But they were behind Potentially an old line That isn't going to protect him And we have these stats from Schefter That he then put out this morning

And those don't look good either I'm just hoping Joe comes back healthy and it's not a similar situation to Andrew where he's like just taking all these hits because he is unbelievable. He's great for the league and this sucks for Cincinnati and hopefully Browning, you know, can lead them to the promised land as well.

We remember whenever he got into the league, it felt as if he was trying to be on a jacked up segment with him being the one getting jacked up every game. And then he came out and spoke. He was like, I'll like get hit. I feel like I'm in a football game then. Whereas one time against Philadelphia Eagles, we actually saw his body move

and his helmet and head stayed in one spot and then he got slingshotted into the ground he leaves game then he comes back I think leads him to overtime in this entire thing his durability and his toughness is always something that's talked about but anytime a quarterback's toughness in the NFL was talked about it's normally because he's getting his ass beat

right that's why you would bring up the toughness and what the ranks are there for the offensive line I believe that was a hembo stat through an Adam Schefter a Twitter account I don't know what they're judging on I'm assuming offensive linemen would say well that's not real it wasn't my job nonetheless we've seen Joe get his ass kicked and we've hated it since day one yeah and now i'm not saying this particular situation went to tell that seemed like it's pretty

standard tackle happening it seems like misfortune if i've ever seen it yeah uh but in the entirety of it all you pay everybody do you take care of the old line they made some moves they tried their best but it's like this might be an entire career of this which we don't hope or wish upon anybody godspeed joe godspeed joe godspeed to bangles fans too you're undefeated And Jake Browning's played before, obviously, because of similar situations. Well, and that's kind of the silver lining here. It's like two things. One, Jake Browning, unbelievable, he's proven he's won games.

Two, Joe Burroughs House not getting robbed anymore because he's going to be home a lot. Yeah. Okay. Good silver lining. I think you'll still be with the team, you know. Well, I don't know. I mean, I think he should kind of stay home, man. I didn't like that those people robbed his house.

He either. That was nice stuff. Did you hear about who was? No, who was it? Do a little research. Pretty scary stuff. All right, let's go number three. for the brand in Aubrey is unbelievable are you not entertained this man is like a gladiator and

they're doing things that nobody thought was possible we actually got a chance to talk to him a little bit earlier today let's talk about this past weekend yesterday obviously the 64 yard are absolutely insane different ball flight than you normally hit yeah why was that you think did you try it or is this a new kick for you no that's just a little power fade um I was just trying to add a little bit more to it and kind of came off my foot a little funky and it had that little slide and got nervous for a second but then it corrected itself and got back on its path um i have a i don't really try to do it but when we get back there i i started the notice i do take that little hitch step to give myself a little bit more behind the ball you can see it there

but um yeah i don't try to do it i'm more of a field kicker i don't watch a whole lot of film of myself. If you pay attention closely, not any single kick is exactly the same for me as the last one. There's a lot of times, especially early in the season where my soccer form takes back over and I kind of land on my kicking foot. And those are the ones I try to get away from because those are bad. But they tend to still go in. I don't know. I try to keep it as similar as possible, but you see a rush coming out of your peripherals, then you try to get off your plant foot real quick and it makes your form look funky. So as long as it's going in, I'm happy and I'm trying not to be too robotic, but get myself in the same position every time and

make it make a kick. Yeah, you do. He does. 82 and 91 on his career thus far, which is 90%, which I assume is the best ever to start a career. He is unflappable. We had a full 15-minute conversation with him that we will certainly put out. But him chatting about this particular kick and saying, yeah, I mean, that thing just started going. I was hoping. I was hoping as well. He just makes kicks.

And once we kind of got done with that conversation with him earlier, he has the makeup. He has the brain of one of those guys, you know, and it's crazy that he's this new to the football world and has already made a name for himself. But he's unbelievable. And obviously, the Cowboys need him come, man. Yeah, and it's lucky. Like, if you're a Cowboys fan, do not take this for granted. As a Patriots fan, I live through Adam Vinatari, live through some.

Stephen Gostowski, I just assume like, oh, okay, so I could go out there and probably kick a ball and would be okay. That's not the case. If you're a Cowboysman, you've got the guy, you should hang your hat on having the guy. When you mentioned Dak Prescott and C.D. Lamb and all these superstars, mention Brandon Aubrey, because he's going to win you games for the next 15 years. And when he's gone, you were going to miss him like you've never imagined you'd miss a kicker before the Patriot's damn near lost a game yesterday because of two missed extra points. Brandon Arbery is nails and the conversation is

unbelievable. He's like a dude. It's sweet. Yeah, very much so. Yeah, football guy. Yeah, and he said he's very recent that he started to like, oh, yeah, football. This year he said. Yeah, he's so new to it. It's like he was soccer, soccer, soccer, soccer,

that was what it was supposed to be. And then if my memory serves me right, him and his wife were watching something either on YouTube or on, and it was kicking. And she was almost like, can't you kind of Could you, and he just started. He was traveling like an hour or two hours, four times a day for like two years. Just finding the stroke, getting good, getting good, getting good.

And it gets his opportunity, he just never missed it. And it's, what a beast, especially for the Cowboys, because they're always going to be on national television. He becomes the first ever kicker to hit a walk-off game tire at the end of regulation, then a walk-off game winner at the end of overtime. Obviously, zero's on the board across both of them. It's either do or die, seemingly for kickers ever. single kick. There's been some ass kickers in the NFL this year.

I don't like that. Brandon Aubrey's making up for it on the other side. All right, the champs is still the champs. You know, I always say the Chiefs is still the Chiefs, and there was moments in this game yesterday where I'm like, yes, the Chiefs is all the way back. The Chiefs is still the Chiefs. And Patrick Mahomes

had some magical moments. Travis Kelsey had some insane plays, and then obviously did something that he never does. I mean, he's like most shorthanded guy, maybe in the NFL. So him bat one in the Red Zone. As they're going, in for a touchdown to become a pick the other way. It's just a nightmare. Absolutely nightmare for the Kansas City Chiefs. And on that note, Philadelphia Eagles did what the Philadelphia Eagles do. Philadelphia Eagles get a huge win. Sequin obviously is going to do Seekwan stuff. Jalen's

doing Jalen's stuff. Nick Siriani goes into the kingdom and gets a dub after an ass beating in the Super Bowl. I think I learned that the Chiefs might not be as bad as maybe we thought the chiefs were going to be and that the Eagles might be the real deal, brother. What are your thoughts, Ty? I mean, I think if you're a Chiefs fan, you're definitely not hitting the panic button, but I think it might be time for, you know, cause for a little concern. First time in Mahomes' career that they've lost three games in a row, if you include the playoffs. First time the Chiefs have started 0 and 2 since 2014, coincidentally,

that was the last time they made the playoffs. And you mentioned it. It's kind of like Kelsey doing things that just he never does. Mahomes is their leading rusher again. Like, he's kind of got to put everything on his shoulders right now. And then on the flip side with the Eagles, of people after yesterday saying, you know what, that might be the game that finally gets the tush push ban. Because you got guys moving. You know, it's just they, they literally every time

they need to pick up a first down on third and short or fourth and short, guess what? They get it. People are tired of the rugby stuff. And that's what Shepter said. He said, the Eagles did, or the, the chiefs didn't lose that game yesterday. They lost that game at the league meetings when, you know, the NFL said, hey, we're not going to ban the tush push. That's awesome. So we'll see. That's awesome. Football game. They get loud. Grinyy. this morning was like the abomination of a football play, the Tush put like there seems like there is getting a little louder

and obviously the shots of everybody being off sides and everything like that. Tush push out, brotherly shove out. Let's go to the number one storyline of the weekend. The Dimes Dive is in. Hell yeah! Three touchdowns in two weeks, Danny Dimes dive. The Colts, okay?

I said last week, everybody laughed. Colts go into football. I'm not laughing anymore. Denver Broncos, great defense. Yes. Denver Broncos got a great defense. Best, preseason. A lot of people talk about Denver Broncos

maybe winning a whole damn fucking thing. Denver Broncos are the team. A lot of money on the Denver Broncos. Now, they were in a dog fight with Tennessee Week 1, and I understand Cam Ward had some generational talent plays against them and everything like that. But they were coming into the Lodd House. They were coming into Lucasillo Stadium.

I think all of us were a little bit worried about, are we real or are we not? I mean, we're about to find out. Sean Payton on the other side with Bo Nix a little bit more. And what we found out is, ah, yeah, the Colts are for real. And Tyler Warren might be the best football player in the NFL. Danny Dimes obviously having a full resurrection under this Shane Stike in offense.

That's the Dimes dive, and it is beautiful. It is a touchdown maker, a touchdown creator. And I don't think we've even come close to perfecting it. I mean, there's bodies flying in the back. There's a little bit else. But with Danny Dimes' ability to run, he even hit a second gear whenever a guy got free and got the edge around somebody and picked up a few yards, which could have been a sack and a loss.

There were some throws that were perfectly placed out of Danny Dimes, and there was a no-quit from the team that we had maybe seen in years past. There's multiple times where the Broncos should have won that game, could have won that game. The Colts could have had a three-in-hour got out of the way, or the defense could have just not shown up and kind of gave up another field goal and maybe just let the momentum go to the other way. We bring him in in the off-season out of Minnesota.

Full Vimes got, full celebration guy. It is on good authority I've been told from my source. says that blew the mascot did not know they were doing that celebration at that exact moment. So Bynum's freestyle and celebrations that are becoming the best celebrations around the league each week.

It is a good time to be a Colts fan. It is a fun time to be a Colts fan. And leverage is in a rule book. Yeah, it is. Can't be trying to break guys next. No. I mean, we're trying to be a healthy operation. We're trying our best

to make the game safer for future generations you can't be trying to swan con bomb over a guy's head like that you can't be pushing down trying to go up now i did see Denver Broncos fans point out some other plays that might look like some leverage i'd argue that uh maybe it does happen on a regular base i'd argue maybe they don't call it but when it's that egregious come on that egregious can't have it you got to call it we all saw it i'll tell you I was in a suite, had direct eye contact on hold from Regaberto Sanchez, punter for the team.

Haven't seen him. Yeah. No. We don't do that. No. We don't do that around here. Okay. Indianapolis, we don't punt anymore.

Rigo could be on his way to Pro Bowl season. Did have a punt. It might have been 60-some yards. Then they ran into the punter first down. So he did have a punt in game one, but it did not count. It got ruled off. We got a first down because everything's worth. working for the Indianapolis Colts right now.

But I had direct eye on Rigoberto Sanchez and Ball and Spencer Schrader, who has been great for us. This kid, Spencer Schrader, we're very happy he's here. Born in Indiana, Indiana, right? Yes, he went down to Florida, I believe. So he's an Indiana kid. We had Matt Gaye. He was the highest paid kicker in the NFL for us.

Ball didn't always go in. Good, dude. Schroeder kid feels good. I have direct eye contact on Rigoberto, the ball. As soon as he hits it, not good contact. This ain't going in. Okay, that's just, immediately upon contact, you, nope, that thing, you hit that thing, no way. So we all think it's over.

The electricity is drained from the Lucasola Stadium. And all of a sudden, what's out there? Oh, again, another flag on the play. These Broncos fans acting like this was the only call that everybody was like, come on. These refs were a part of every play. It was very annoying, to be honest with you. There was a lot of flags in the game. That leverage one's tough.

If I was a Broncos fan, I'm certainly very loud. On that note, we get in the re-kick in the odd house. We didn't care. We want ape shit in there. What a huge win for the Broncos. Debut, you're on the call for ESPN Radio. I can't wait to hear that. What a game for you to get to call.

I mean, what a game from wire to wire. Both of these offenses are moving the ball up and down the field. We always talk about in the locker room playing complimentary football. We always talk about, hey, it's going to take 60 minutes, have each other's back no matter what happens. And that's what happened with the coach yesterday. The offense was moving the ball well between the 20s all day long. A couple, few drives. Stahl, Stahl, but Strader was in Nails all day.

Went five-for-five from field goals, so we weren't punching in touchdowns, but we made the big plays when we needed him. That big one to Jonathan Taylor up the sideline. That was huge. The Cam Bynum interception, because the Broncos, they were getting in the red area, and they were converting touchdowns.

Bo Nix was pretty sharp once they got in the red area. Franklin is that quarter of a wide receiver? Troy Franklin, yeah. Weren't the college teammates in Oregon? Yeah, so this was kind of his breakout game, but this interception was huge. It was huge. We always talk about tips and overthrows,

and that's what Cambidam. the good deep free safeties do they make you pay for those so that was a big one getting that turn over there special teams defense defense wasn't great all day long like i said bow knicks was pretty sharp but made a play and we needed it and offensively just been sharp man i mean just every drive we're getting points we're getting touchdowns tyler warren he's been phenomenal uh Jonathan taylor went over 200 total yards and then danny dimes he was getting his ass blitz i want to say three like 70% of the time he got blitz and this Denver Broncos defense they lead the league in sacks.

It had six in week one, 69 coming into this game, and they protected him. He was pretty sharp against the blitz. Went over 300 yards for the first time since week two in 2023. So love with Danny Dimes. We've been looking for a quarterback. Danny Dimeson obviously been looking for a good place, and I think it's kind of a match

made heaven right now. Shane Stuyken's been looking for a quarterback, too. I think he is very comfortable with everything that Danny Dimes. Just the convey into the offense, what Danny's saying, and you could tell the offensive of lines bought in. You can tell everybody's bought in. It's a different vibe with this Colts team this year. Yeah, and that's probably the best two

game span for a home team to start a season of all time. Like, when you I'm serious, when you talk about like the expectations and the question marks around the Colts and for them to come out, week one, dominate a team from start to finish. And then week two to come out, be down by five in the fourth quarter, kick two

field goals and win. Like you mentioned, it's so much different whereas it was 28 to 23 and it was fourth down. And I just assumed the Colts were going to go for, screw it up, and it was going to go the other way. And instead, kick a field goal, get a stop on defense, kick a game winner. Like, it's unbelievable football in the O line. This is Danny Dimes' first real offensive line,

and he's one of the top five, top ten quarterbacks in the NFL right now. Danny Dimes' first shoot is going to be an Indianapolis coat for the next 10 years. I hope so. I've heard he was out last night, maybe having a couple beers with the love with. Yeah, we like that. And we are not saying that as a negative. That is 1,000% A positive. That is the boys enjoying the city.

That is a good thing. Not a bad thing. Hadn't been happening for a long time. Danny Dimes, old school guy. Joining us now, ladies and gentlemen, senior NFL insider for ESPN, Michigan Mott. Ladies and gentlemen, Adam Schaeftery. Sheffty, we apologize for having you wait around right there. That's on us.

The 15 minute clock might just disappear. But on that note, anything that we missed there and the Colts are going to win a Zer Bowl? Well, the 15 minute clock is turned into a 30 minute clock. Pat. But that's okay because the Indianapolis Colts are rolling along. They are the first team in the Super Bowl era not to punt in the first two games of the season.

Whoever would have thought that the cults with Daniel Jones playing quarterback would become the first team not to punt in the first two games of the season. They scored on their first 10 possessions this season, scored every single time, rolling

along. It seems like a long, it was a long time ago that there was a quarterback competition. You want me to go on to the other 90 seconds here like we did last Monday you want to take over and follow up? I'd love that. Well, the follow-up is that first 10 thing, also a record. And also, I think they've scored 17 of, I forget the exact number, 20 or something like that, or 24. And it's the highest percentage of scoring in 45 years in the NFL when it's start season. But go ahead on you. If any of the 90 seconds have anything with Danny Dimes being a greatest quarterback, maybe in the history of the NFL through two weeks, you can certainly add that.

but we are excited to hear what we need to catch up on. Well, who would have thought that the cults would have a more stable quarterback position right now than the Cincinnati Bengals? But the story of the day, obviously, Joe Burrow has a turf toe injury that will require surgery. He will be sidelined for a minimum of three months. Typically, this is a 12 to 14 week recovery period from an injury like that. That would mean that if it was best case, the soon as he could be ready, as much as he might push, would be December 15. and very well could be into the new year before he's ready again. Let's see if the Bengals and Jake Browning, their new quarterback, can keep them afloat until then.

But Joe Burrow went down yesterday. You knew it had to be serious. He's going to have surgery as soon as the swelling and that toe goes down and he's going to be sideline for a minimum of three months. The Bengals already had been calling around to add another quarterback. That's from a debt standpoint. But the fact of the matter is Jake Browning will be the guy. He is expected to be the guy.

and Joe Burrow has taken so much punishment there in Cincinnati from the time that he arrived there in 2020. You put up the pass rush win rate right there where the Bengals have ranked in the league and you see those numbers. That is rough for a quarterback to absorb all those hits, all those years, and you wonder what type of cumulative effect it will have on Joe Burrow physically and mentally moving forward. So we'll keep an eye on that as that unfolds. Jets quarterback Justin Fields is in concussion protocol, left the game yesterday, went out, was replaced by Tyrod Taylor. We'll see if Justin Fields can clear in time this week to get back into action. The Jets had a terribly disappointing game yesterday against the Buffalo Bills. They looked inept out there. Nobody would have thought the Jets could look that bad, but they did, and now there'll be a question

about the quarterback. And the other quarterback to watch today will be Jaden Daniels. obviously came up a little limpy on Thursday night in Green Bay and I think they did some testing over the weekend and I think Dan Quinn will address the media today and we'll see what that is whether his status for Sunday is in question at all don't know yet I don't think it's serious in any kind of way

but I do think that we're going to hear something there regarding some sort of issue with Jane Daniels That's my sense of things, and we'll see how that plays out there working through it right now. Okay, on that note, Jaden looked unlike what we've seen of Jaden in the NFL, I think, in the face and everything on the field, certainly against that Packers team, who might be, they might be the best team in ball right now. It might be. So that might just be the case. I didn't think I remembered him potentially having an injury coming out of there.

We will obviously keep T's A&Ps in positive vibes for Jaden Daniels, Anglin, everybody that got injured. Ty has a question for you, Shepty. Shout out to YouTube TV, by the way. Every game, every Sunday, all in one place. Love it. You got Quad Box, too. Oh, no. You can build them.

You can build them. You can choose what you want. And Red Zone, are we still? We are? Yeah, I watched it all day yesterday. Oh, okay. Yeah, I had it on as well. Now, granted, I know there's people that didn't because they were saying terrible things to me whenever I said, you guys are going to have a play-through commercials.

We do not care. I spoke for the wrong people. There are people that here. I can tell you that you don't go there. Yeah. Well, I did because I knew that I was. going to still watch. And that's on me for assuming everybody else is.

Are their numbers down? Did they still have a full minute of commercials? Because I've boycott. I haven't peaked over there. Really? They did something more egregious yesterday. Was that a new border yesterday? Oh, the red line. I will say, the red line is pretty nice whenever it's in the quad box, because you know which one is exactly the red zone channel, as opposed

to everything else. But I saw people were not happy with the red border. They don't want it. Taking an inch off both of my sides of the TV. I want to let people No, I'm on your side. It was incredibly convenient to see that in the quad box because I know that's the Red Zone one. Not that I wouldn't forget, but it's a reminder.

Like, oh, wait, I thought these games wrong, what's going on here? But I agree. I can't take it anymore. It did help me in a couple different times. A lot. But I hate it. Yeah, done with it. Moving on.

And the 4.15 second things? Enough. Those need to be at least zero seconds. What's next five? Red Zone's awesome. It is awesome. But I do share everybody else's sentiments. Let's not ruin it.

Let's not do that as a whole. I agree. Go ahead, Ty. Chefty, looking ahead to tonight, do you have any update on Brock Bowers' status? We heard last week after he came out of the game, hey, he would have finished this if this game mattered. But then all this week, now he's questionable. They don't know if he's going to play.

Where are we at with Brock Bowers going into tonight's game? I believe he's going to play. I think Pete Carroll has said he expects Brock Bowers to play. play. The head coach himself, who's celebrating, by the way, is 74th birthday today. So happy birthday, Pete. They expect him out there. I don't think it's a lock yet that he's going to play. Again, I go back to Christian McCaffrey last year in the opener when everybody thought he was going to play and he didn't. I think Bowers plays. He wore a left sleeve over his knee in practice, but I still want to see that he's fully and officially active before we know for sure

that he's playing. But I think it's trending towards that. that clearly, even though they list them is questionable. Anything else in this game that we should think about? Oh, there's a lot that we should think about. Kalee Mack, the former Raider, gets to go up against his former team, and the Raiders at offensive lane, he'll be up against DJ Glaze tonight, so that'll be an interesting a little matchup to see how that plays out. We've got these two great rookie running backs right now.

We'll see how that plays out between Omar and Hampton and Ashton Gentie. Justin Herbert has played very well. Gino Smith is airing it out for the Raiders' first home game. game for the Vegas Raiders this year. So really it's the first time that Pete Carroll has coached that team in front of the home fans there in Las Vegas. Ashton Genti making his home debut.

We'll see if Brock Bowers is in fact out there as we think he will be. It should be a good matchup on Monday football in the second leg of the game. We're hoping that these primetime games remain good. Yes. Need it. We're starting to look at the schedule. Feels like the NFL really wanted

to put some good stuff up front. Yeah. Yeah. We want this first week to not be a dud. Let's put some division games in here. Let's put some rivalry games in here. And then we all, because I think we got caught up in a moment, we're like, yes, this is the new NFL. Yep.

Yesterday's slate, you look around. You're like, hold the phone. Okay. And you start looking ahead. You're like, what games are on prime time ago? Do I see the Miami Dolphins are in prime town? See, that's pretty messing up. Don't look ahead.

Stay in the moment. Yeah, you're Jay Taylor. You told me I got to stay in the moment. I understand. Tom Brady said I got to stay in a moment. The Miami Dolphins are in prime time here in the not so distant future. We can't be doing this NFL. This cannot be what this is.

On the Miami Dolphins, though. Go ahead, DeBudge. Yeah, Tula played a little bit better. It was a game kind of down to the wire for the Dolphins. But everything that's going on over there is under a microscope, including the head coach when he's speaking at the press conferences. Body language on the field. The defense, you know, coach started off historically.

They did it as well. I allowed points in their first 10 or 11 drives. How hot are the seats down in Miami? And will Tyreek Hill possibly be on the move here soon? Well, they essentially hadn't gotten a call as of last week. But I think what happens here is as losses mount up, as they continue to pile up, that inevitably gets the attention of teams and they begin to start calling. Nobody had called as of last week.

But if they keep losing, you know that people will be calling. Now, the Dolphins last week had zero interest in trading him, and I still think that they probably think their own two, and they think they're going to be bouncing back. Now, they play on a short week, play Buffalo. That's the matchup you don't want right now. So, you know, let's see how this goes right now.

But it's not a great matchup, not a great time. They're not interested in training, Tariq. Now, a month from now, there could be a different story. Yeah, but when you put that tweet out that note, and you're wheeling and dealing right now, is that anything that we need to talk about? There's a lot of the work going on right now. Yeah, all good.

Like what? Like what? Stuff, Pat, like stuff. Oh, come on. Chefty. Sheffty. We'll call you stuff. Stuff.

Adam stuffed. Stuffter. Yeah, it's a lot of stuffter. Adam had a lot of stuffter. When you put that tweet out, though, about nobody's really been interested in trading for Tyreek Hill, that's a, who, do-to-who, right? That's a bird call for everybody that Tyreek may be available, or is that you literally just saying interesting storyline that I'm learning about here? No, I think various people

have speculated, you know, about him being traded, people have been saying that Dolphins have been getting calls, teams have been reaching out, this team's interested. I just don't think any of those things as of last week had happened. I don't think that there have been teams that call. That's who I said to date. They hadn't received any calls from other teams, and they had no plans to trade them. Could change this week? Sure. Is it likely to change? I don't think so. There's a short week. Miami is more intent upon turning

around its season. Obviously, we all have our own feelings about where they will or they won't. But they're in the thick of it, and they think they have a good team with good players. So unless they start a game... They don't. No, they do. Chris Greer's phone might not actually work

either. That could be the problem. No, he can get everybody out of town. That's a one way... It's a one way phone. He's great. On that note, though, as soon as I read that from you, I immediately think, oh, this is the team saying, Chefty, let people know that we are definitely, to date and they currently, those two little parts right there. You just try, you're trying to make it accurate. By wording, Pat, that's like, again, I'm trying to come up with it so that, so that if the events change and circumstances change a month from now, somebody said, you said they weren't trading. Well, that, that's where they're at on this day. They're not trading them.

They're not looking to trade them. We all know that things are fluid and that teams change their minds and circumstances change. So that's my language. I understand, but I'm just telling you from your Twitter account, me reading that, especially with all the people that follow you and all the people that literally notable people with power in a lot of buildings, read your tweets and go, oh, there's a little bit of a thing over there. Let me go ahead and give a – as soon as I read that, I was like, oh, that's drumming up. That has to be to drum up interest for the Miami Dolphins

and potentially hear about Tyreek Hill. How much is he getting paid? What is Tyreekills? I think like 30 a year when he signed. Anybody potentially called him trade for head coach, maybe? What do you mean? I mean, that happens in the NFL. Yeah, no, I think like the main Red Claws are coach basketball up there, G League.

I think they're calling. Who? For Mike McDaniel. Oh, my gosh. That is not. That's what he was alluding to. It was like teams trading for the head coach, I said. He doesn't even know basketball.

The main red claws? me, Daniel's so freaking cool. He could probably figure out basketball in the day. He's probably run that triangle offense like Phil Jackson. He's going to be an offense coordinator somewhere, we all assume. But they like their team. They think they're going to be able to turn it around. Hopefully they will be able to do that.

Maybe he heads back to San Francisco. Who? Wait a minute. Go ahead, con man. Chefty, we got to talk about it, all right? You're very tied in with the Niners. I know you're tied in with every team, but when it comes to the Niners, it's like an Eagle Scout-type knot when it comes to tied in. Mack Jones went out and balled out for the San Francisco 49ers.

Kyle Shanahan, you have reported, wanted Mack Jones in the draft. Something happened after they trade up to three, they end up taking Trey Lance. But Mac Jones gets into the Kyle Shanahan offense, and it basically goes off without a hitch while not having George Kittle on the field. Is it too soon to say we have a quarterback controversy? Are we a win or two away from a quarterback controversy? because we also looked at Purdy's, you know, contract, and his cap hit doesn't go north of 30 million. So this does almost feel like a, you know, not a Kirk Cousins Pennick situation.

But if Mack Jones has a hot hand, Kyle Shanhan's probably going to continue to roll with him, Chefty. Are we reading that right? Well, they're going to roll with him as long as Brock Purdy is out. And when Brock Purdy is able to come back, they're going to roll with Brock Purdy. I don't think there's any quarterback there right now. I think it's them having a backup that they believe in. And I think he's a backup. He signed a two-year, $7 million deal.

He's the backup. He's the number two. And frankly, the better he plays, the better it will be for them. If they decide that, hey, he's got value in the off-season and they want to deal him, then maybe they could do that. I don't think they're thinking like that. I think that they're just thinking, look, they've had so many injuries at so many key positions. They had to rely on that.

a backup tight end, a backup quarterback. They didn't know that they were going to have Trump Williams until pregame warmups. They're missing wide receivers. Like, this is a team that's been decimated early on. So to have Mack Jones step in and complete 26 to 39 for 279, three touches, he looked great. He looked great. And they were saying to me over the weekend that they believe that that environment that they have there elevates players. Like, they've seen players step in and perform work.

Well, that's what they were expecting for Mac Jones. And it was interesting because everybody kept talking about how awesome he's been to be around and part of a real spunk and swagger to the team. And I think Mac Jones learned a lot going through his two experiences in New England and Jacksonville. And it sounds like he got there kind of with some maturity and some experience and probably acted in a way that maybe he might not have around. earlier in his career. And he played great.

Played great. It looks really strong yesterday. But I don't know. I don't think there's any quarterback controversy there. Okay, we'll continue to monitor it. I think Kyle Shanahan originally won in Mac Jones. Now he's seeing what he could have had. We love Brock Purdy.

Yes. More than anybody else. I have his out. I have his costume from Harriet. That's right. I bought it. The thing he wore and did the two-step or line dance in any commercial, I thought he looked so cool.

I actually bought it. But any place on earth that would potentially do this would be Kyle Shanahan. in the San Francisco 49ers, especially if Kyle Shanahan originally could prove, just like I said, it was. Now, on the note about Mack Jones bouncing around, you got Baker, you got Donald, you got Gino, you got a lot of guys. Dimes. Danny Dimes here that go through whatever humbling process or maybe enlightening process that they go through in their own football journeys in their own football lives. Mac Jones in the Kyle Shanahan offense, we all immediately were like, that would make sense, which is probably what Kyle Shanahan was thinking when he was coming out of draft. It appears if that's the case, week one, if that continues, you're saying no problem. Okay.

I'm saying it too. You're saying same thing as Shifty? Same thing. Brock Purdy's the guy. I agree. However. Kyle Shanahan is a guy that has done this. I mean, this is something Kyle Shanahan would do.

Not saying he wants to cause you problems. There's no riff. Brock Party definitely quarterback. They paid him and everything like that. But if Mack Jones is a guy, he wanted a number three overall, they traded multiple number ones to go get. and he comes into his system. Kyle Shanahan's guy in charge over there, right? Kyle Shanahan has this guy that,

just like I fucking said it would. So it's happening? That's a tough thing. Two years seven million two? You know what he just saw? Somebody wants Brock, right? We got a lot of salary cap all of them. I'm not saying that it's overreaction Monday.

No, he's playing really well right now that they couldn't hold on to. Debo Samuel. Okay, so there's a lot. It's Kyle Shanahan. How much car is guaranteed? 182. 182.

So much money. That's a lot. So much money. Including injury. So who knows what the actual total number. No, I think that was... All right. Chef, you're saying it. You're saying it. I'm in. Brock Purdy. Can't wait to get you back. He's got to stay healthy. It's good to have a good backup.

In two years, you've got a good backup for two years. 279, three tuds. 112. One game. Purdy is, you know, Kittles one of Purdy's guys, though. All right. The last question. Two, three years of Purdy.

I agree. Saints are tough, too. You got 10 years. Last question here from AP Tone. Yeah, Shephti, to be honest with you, I thought I was getting a darn stuffeder this weekend. I saw a tweet, but then I went A, D.A.M. Nope, that's at Adam Schaefter. You put out a tweet that Shadur told Ravens no.

They wanted to draft him in the fifth round, and he said, no, I don't want to be a backup to Lamar Jackson. That was a real thing? That's a real thing. Yeah, the Ravens were planning to take Shador Sanders at pick 141. And that was the plan. And we got back to him that he preferred not to be in a situation where he would be in a quarterback room with an all-world superstar elite quarterback, Mar Jackson, where he wouldn't be able to sniff the field.

And so that was something that did not appeal to Shador. And he preferred to take the mystery behind door number two rather than the certainty of Baltimore at door number one. And basically let it be known, like, yeah, I thank you very much. much, but please don't. I want to be in a place that I can have a better opportunity to play. And so, yeah, if that message had been there, would the Ravens have picked it at 141? Yes, they would have done that.

That was the plan. I want to play behind another guy. Great history in Baltimore. Yeah, one of the ghosts of the other guy, though. One of the other guys. Maybe learning from Lamar, be cool. Getting drafted at Pick 141. Is it a guaranteed that you're going to play anyways?

Man, I'm on Team Shador always have been. When I read this, just like Diggs, I was like, who would want this in for, why do we have this? And I read it, I'm like, why did this happen? Then I started thinking like 10 different times. If it all works out, it all works out. But if I could have the opportunity to be in a Lamar Jackson room versus any other room, I think I'd want to be in a Lamar Jackson room.

Not me? No? No, not if I'm a quarterback that feel like I'm good enough to be a starter. I feel like I'm good enough to be the first or second round pick. I don't want to go to a team that has Josh Allen, Lamar Jackson, maybe Joe Burrow, Patrick Mahomes. Those are probably, yeah, I'll open the other door if I'm a guy that wants to get on. Because these guys, we expect to play for another 10 years unless something happens. And this happens usually at the back end of the draft.

Sometimes guys don't want to get drafted late 6th round, 7th round. They'll rather be an undrafted free agent to pick a better destination and go in there and compete in the roster. So it makes sense from that standpoint A lot of times this type of shit doesn't get out either What did he end up getting picked? What pick? 24, three picks later. Okay.

Yeah, and if, you know, to your guys' point like picking a place with all those things considered, would you want to go to a place where you're the second rookie quarterback drafted in the class? Well, I mean, I'm sure he didn't want that either, but I'd rather be... What if he told the Browns? He said no to the Ravens.

He could probably say no to the Browns. I'd rather be in a brown situation in an Arabian situation. Yeah, if you're on a quarterback. Yeah, but, man, I don't know. That doesn't look good. I don't think it personally looks good. Only three picks later is good, I think, as a thing.

Because the complaints about him not getting picked were the thing. And now we're hearing, well, he told people not to pick them. How many other people do he say not to? Yeah, good point. You know, so then that's the issues. Because I was like, what the hell is going on? I was part of the whole, I was part of the whole, we're not driving with the and then now we're hearing, well, he turned down a team to get drafted to them.

And it's like, did that happen anywhere else? I have no idea. Like, did the Beals say, hey, we'd love to have you. No, I don't want to go there. If it all ends up working out, it's good. But I hope that's the only time that that happened. What if there was a fourth round team that didn't want to? Yeah.

Or third round. We don't know if that's true. It's not. Maybe. I mean, that's what we heard, though, with, like, the interviews. Like, was he just going in and being like, you guys can draft me? I'm not coming here. Sorry.

If it all ends up working out, All good. Good luck, Shadar. Pulling for you, man. Always will. All right, Shafty, we appreciate you, man. If you got any more that stuff that you want to tweet out, we'll follow along. There'll be stuff coming here soon. What type of stuff? Good stuff? Do it now. Not good stuff, no. Oh, no. Oh, bad news stuff. So we got suspensions coming in. You're bad new stuff. Oh, no. Oh, no. Injury or suspensions? Bad new stuff. Bad news. Fire injury. You'll see. You'll know when you see. It's the time, man, that's Adam Stuffter, dude.

That's Adam Bad Stuffter. I mean, kind of perfect, though, because we haven't done the G's Louise plays at the moments. Moments. Sorry, Gis Louise, moments of the weekend. I don't know if now's the time. I was going to say, if not now, then when? Yeah, I mean, we're doing that way for him to end that. Yeah.

I feel like did a massive star player die over the weekend and I'm not aware of? I mean, if we're doing bad stuff. I think it might be Jover in Miami. What? Oh, no. It's Mike Mcdover? I think the way I looked into his eyes and his face. Looking into Schepter's eyes.

I felt it. I felt it, brother. Call back, call back Schaefter, call back Shepter, please. Gumpy, you can't just be saying it just because you're hoping for it. Okay, that isn't how this works, you know? It is overreaction Monday. After week two, if they fire their coach. It might be Jover down there.

It might be Joe Mcdover. Oh, my God. Mike Mcdover? Oh, my God. Most press conferences, man. They're awesome, dude. No, they're not. If you score, you win.

So kind of freaking score. That's what we like the bottom, though. Is that he wasn't the same as everybody else. And that's exactly the reason they should fire him today. Whoa. Because of that yesterday. You should have some juice. You should have juice when he did that shit.

Okay, I understand. Shepty, the coach get fired. Did a coach get fired? You know, we got fired? Okay, thank you, thank you, thank you. It's Acho McGover.

All right, see you. We appreciate you. Ladies and gentlemen, that's up, Shephton. Come, you can't just be doing that. No, I said, I think it might be. When I looked into his eyes and he was saying something bad was coming, I felt like a coach could be getting fired.

I didn't say who. Sounds like health. But you're wrong, though. You said it's not. We don't know. It hasn't broke yet. We don't have any news yet. If it is health,

the Patriots were without their DC this weekend and he has had health problems this year. Okay, we're pulling for everybody. Teague two firing would be wild. It would be. That'd be a wild thing. We haven't had that early before, right? When did Rivera get fired?

Six, seven? Like Frank Wright was kind of around mid. Frank, yeah, they were pretty, yeah, it was a little bit there. A couple college coaches got fired this week on right? Salon. Yeah, they'd see that. Hey, we ain't got time for you to be doing what you're doing. there at Virginia Tech last year they returned like 20 of 22 starters and just didn't win and then this

year they seemingly did well in the transport on getting guys in their head dogs everywhere just don't win this guy 16 and 24 he's fired see you later Brent Pry appreciate what you did for college football but everybody in Virginia Tech said it'd be cool to be good at football not just have a great entrance and then who else Sean Foster UCLA now he said we're in Los Angeles at the big 10 media days and go he's ex-niffel guy who obviously we all got respect for from playing ability, but his head coaching stint did not start good at UCLA. That is rough start.

Prada and Nico, though. Got Nico I Amaliava and, you know, I see some people who are Tennessee fans saying, is this guy the dumbest guy in the history of the NIL? Seems like he is. I was down there. I know. The jerseys, you saw what they did.

Oh, yeah. I am having a regret. Yeah, that was good. It's creative. Yeah. Very creative. Good crowd. Hopefully you make a great crowd down in Tennessee.

Shout out to that. Also, congrats to George Bulldogs, big time win. That's tough. Get in there and get away. Especially with the way that city was buzzing. 102,000 show up 45 minutes before the game starts. That place is packed. What a great time to be alive. During the Volvo Fall Experience event,

Yeah. God. The goat. It is so cool. Yeah. You turn on TV, all you do is you see electrifying environments with an amazing sport being played. You can be dazzled, you can be emotional. It can be thrilling.

It can be a bummer. It's the greatest sport of all time. We're lucky to be right in the middle of its season. College football has been delivering in a big way. Ratings are up 21%, whatever that means, across all college football games. And I assume the NFL is going to have similar statistics. Sports as a whole are a great unifier.

A good thing to really rally around, and we're certainly doing that with our sport football. For the next, what, five months? Yeah. Love that. It's been great. Tonight, two Monday night football games will cap on. off this NFL week to Slate.

Obviously, one of them is very, very late, and we are going to struggle to stay awake for it. But the Buccaneers will take on the Texans at 7 o'clock, and then the Chargers will take on the Raiders. Baker Mayfield, C.J. Stroud, let's go. Okay, let's do that. Let's have a good one, especially down to Houston. Monday night, in Houston, early in the season.

Texans still very much at a point where they can go. The Houston Texans fans are about to be outrageous tonight. That was by far the loudest stadium that I played in every single week, or every single year. I did not get a chance to go play in Seattle, have since gone to Seattle witnessed the game there with the Amazon Prime commentators. It's loud as shit. I'm not going to say it's not. I assume that I would have said that that place, loudest if I ever got to play there. Houston, though, every time we played there was an AFC South Championship game.

It was like a primetime feeling game. Obviously, JJ was there, so the place was crazy. Loud, you'd leave the place. Your ears would still be ringing for like an hour, two hours after. of the game. Tough to have those types of environments and

lose. So I think the night might be tough for the buccaneers in prime time. And then Chargers and Raiders,

Harbaugh, taking on Pete Carroll. I don't feel like there's a lot of love loss between. No, there's not. AFC West. There's going to be

some new kings this year. Patrick Mahomes and Chief show a little bit of weakness and maybe it is time for one of these other AFC West teams who have legendary coaches

to go on a run. We shall see the toxic tables here at Boss Conner Natty Schmidt. Thank you very much. Yeah, it's part of the New England NFL rivalries gear. It is unbelievable. It says it, well, actually just has the end of it. We are all Patriots. But the full thing is we, the people of the United States and New England are all Patriots. So it's kind of like,

like I know you guys consider yourself Patriots. Well, that's, I was wondering actually when I saw that thing, who made it, because I thought if one particular company made it, we could maybe just rip off that N.E. off the chest. And then also the Patriots logo on the sleeve. So then it You just have a We're All Patriots here, which is a pretty sweet little Go America type hoodie. Yeah, it's not that poopie brand. It's Nike. So it's pretty legit. We'll let other people decide what the poopie brand is that we were talking about.

And I almost said it, and I decided, you know what? Smart. No. It wasn't Adidas. Adidas is spending a lot of money in our sport. We just need them to know it is not Adidas. Or Under Armour or Reebok or New Balance or Puma. That's Tysmore or Puma.

Hallie Wals. Whoa. Whoa. How did you get those already? Are those the... They're the Hally ones. They are sick. The opals?

Is that the opal collection? Yeah, I said it should have been called the avatars, but opal's cool too, man. It does look like it's straight out of Pandora there on Uptanium right there on your feet. I'll tell you. Those green pants are sick. They are clean, yeah, you do got nice green pants kind of... Yeah, it brings the whole outfit together there. I think you look at...

They're also very comfortable. It's super comfy. A lot of basketball shoes and a lot of people will have shoes. Their shoes are built for looks, not for actual wearing. his shoes look sweet and they're also very comfortable. Yeah, they're both. It is perfect and I'll probably wear these every single day in here. They're awesome. Thank you for giving them to me. Yeah, no problem.

Tyrese and not send them to me. No, he actually sent, I think you sent them to the whole group. One half of the Hammer, Don! Cowboys AP Tone is here. Congrats to your Steelers, tone. Thank you. I appreciate that. We kind of did a fast little run through of it earlier. You know, chit chat about whose team is potentially more done than the others. Everybody kind of wants to rule out to Pittsburgh Steelers right now.

Aaron Rogers says it's week two. It's going to be good for us in a long run. Seattle Seahawks might have a team. Maybe. Tony. Even if they do, I mean, it's still not good. I mean, things, it was 14. It was 14.

It was 10 a.m. local. First ride. 10 a.m. local for Seattle. Yeah. They go into Pittsburgh. Oh, mama, I'm in V for my life from the long, mom of the law. 10 a.m. local, they play this game. Yeah.

In Pittsburgh, Aaron Rogers' first time. getting introed running out there doing the entire thing. I mean, you think the Seattle Seahawks are in some shit here now. This is going to be tough. Instead, huge win. Multiple turnovers. Obviously, red zone turnovers and everything like that will change the game. But I think the Seattle Seahawks might be better

than anybody's giving them credit because they're so far away and also a brand new team, brand new quarterback, everything like that. So maybe the Pittsburgh Steelers aren't as ass as maybe they looked yesterday or maybe some fans feel. Hopefully, but you know, you talked about how the Jets looked against the bills. And, you know, that wasn't great. So, I mean, it's always, it's hard to tell early in the season. And yesterday it was like it was 14, seven and half.

And it's not like things were great in the first half. They Seahawks scored on the first drive, but then they didn't score since then. And the old line, Aaron was getting pressured in. But it was like 14-7, all right, you know, well, this will be just be an ugly home loss or whatever. And it's 14, 14 in the second half. They score on their first drive of the second half. And then Steelers get a huge play out of Jalen Warren. They're going down.

It's four minutes left in the third quarter. Be like, all right, either touchdown or a field goal here we go up. And then this is just a, it's a tough interception for Aaron. Calvin Austin goes off his hands into the defender. If it got through, it would have been a touchdown from youth? We'll never know. And then the Seahawks go down, they kick a field goal after this. And then after they kick the field goal, they have to kick off.

Let's go to our geez, Louise, moment of the weekend. A lot of people saying, oh, no, geez, Louise. What is this? Fourth quarter of an NFL game. New landing zone rules. Go ahead and run it. Hit the kickoff, try to hit it in the landing zone, try to make it a little bit of an ugly ball. It takes a bad bounce. It goes over

Calvin Olsen's head. Caleb Johnson. Sorry, Caleb Johnson's head. And he lets it go. And then boom, Boise State legend. George Holani dives on it before it rolls out of the back of the end zone. Since it landed in the landing zone, which is in between the 20 and a goal line, that is a live ball. Now there was a conversation.

Did he touch it? Did he not touch it? The refs say, we don't care. The ball was down in the landing zone, and it was not down in the end zone for a touchback. So that right there, ladies a touchdown for the Seattle Seahawks. Mises would then make the extra point. So you take the field goal after the pick, then you add the kickoff touchdown, and then release the touchdown to Fryermouth potentially from the Steelers side.

17-point swing. That interception right there in the moment where Calvin Austin hits it off his finger. hits it off his fingertips. Aaron Rogers was incredibly upset. Once again, this is the kickoff, lands in a landing zone, stays live in the end zone, they covered up,

that's a touchdown. Kickoffs used to be always live, always had to down balls, even if they wanted the end zone. Then they tried to make it a kickoff touchback fest, basically, and they started rolling it down as soon as the ball would hit the end zone.

As soon as the ball would hit the paint and be like a high school game, balls down, balls down, balls down. They just kind of rolled that into the NFL. That was never a thing. Because on kickoff, balls always live. like, hey, might score a touchdown.

We got a dupist returner back there. He might not know that this thing is still alive. We might steal a touchdown. So now with the ball landing in the landing zone, definitely being full go, and then them not knowing to down it in the back. That's alarming. That is an alarming situation. Danny Smith better be on the boys for that entire situation.

You mentioned, though, that's been a rule in college. That's a rookie running back there. Well, he didn't return in college either. Who wasn't much of a returner in college either? You got to know these rules that's tough. I think this has only happened four times in the National Football League. It's a legendary coach. You used to say, if you're a return, there's two things you got to know.

You got to know the rules and you got to catch the ball. Those are two things. Obviously, he didn't do either right there. So tough, but it's a learning lesson. Not only for Caleb Johnson, you know, in all special teams meetings around the league, this will be shown now. And everybody will kind of remember it now going forward. And there's going to be a lot of people in special teams meetings that had no idea that was the rule.

And they're going to be like, thank God. That didn't happen to us. And on that note, with the new rule of the landing zone, that was a perfect ball. Yeah, that is exactly, that was a squib that was ugly and when I hit the ground, skirted through. That is the kick that every kicker is looking for because if that ended up being a touchback like old Cuzz wanted it to be, that goes to the 20, okay, as opposed to a 35. So that was like perfect kick and then obviously perfect execution by the special teams unit from Seattle, knowing that's a live ball and scoring a touchdown.

That's attention to detail early in the season. Now, let's go back to the Calvin Austin interception because Aaron was very pissed off. It seemed like others were pretty pissed off. It was talked about afterwards. Calvin Austin got into a space that he wasn't supposed to get into, allegedly, and is this a tumultuous point for all of Pittsburgh Steelers fans? Yeah, well, it's a tumultuous point because the whole thing about who's going to be wide receiver or two during the offseason and stuff like that, and it is Calvin Austin.

But no, Mark Sanchez was talking about on the broadcast how Calvin Austin should have went one way, and he did, and then Aaron, obviously, they show Aaron in the replay, and he's pointing, and he's not happy either. it was just a litany of airs and then Foxy if you have right after this and after the kickoff there was a third in goal from the 20

and Kenneth Walker touchdown they just ran a simple little pitch outside and I mean the run the defense oh that's Pittsburgh Steelers fourth quarter defense 30 goal like the Keystone cops up here the defense two weeks

like the Keystone cops out there two weeks in a row now the rush defense has been horrendous. The third down defense has been horrendous. Like this is the biggest worry. The defense looking like the old line, we knew there's going to be question marks, you know, the special team stuff happens, whatever, but the defense looking like shite

to start the year is tough. Nine-year NFL vet, Darius J. Butler is here and joining us live from Manatic in Ohio is a man who's a college football national champion, a Super Bowl champion, a Rider Cup winner, and best friends with quarterback at Pittsburgh Steelers, ladies of gentlemen, AJ Hawke.

Hawker, You saw him get a little bit animated. He certainly thought Calvin was going one way, and he had Friermouth wide open. Mark Sanchez said in a replay, like, Austin's got to know that Friarmoot's going to that back corner, kind of clear space there, as opposed to bring his guy in and kind of muddy the entirety of it all up. What are your thoughts on where the Steelers' offense is, where Aaron is, and kind of how it looks after week two in Pittsburgh? I mean, yeah, this is some unbelievable mistakes.

I think that usually tend to not happen with an Aaron Rogers lead offense, something like this. kind of a fluke and then the whole kickoff situation that you showed like how often what dbut said it's happened four times i mean i don't know with this new rule how it works out yeah i don't i don't know how it happens i don't i'm not as down on the steelers because i feel like things like this obviously if they don't happen they have a much better chance to win but you're right the defense not holding up these first couple weeks that that would worry me a little bit more and shout out dbut bringing out the keystone cops reference i used to hear that every day for 20 years you know starting as a youngster when coaches say it but uh yeah i'd be a little bit

concern, but also, I mean, Seattle's legit, man. I think they're pretty solid. I think Seattle is legit. I don't think anybody's talking about it. We'll find out as the season continues to go. The Pittsburgh Steelers, though, we're going all in. We're winning a Super Bowl. You know, we're winning a Super Bowl here.

I don't think anybody in Pittsburgh thought Seattle was coming in and beating them on that particular day. I don't think any Yenzer thought that was possible. I know that Seattle Seahawks fans thought it was possible because they think they have a good team. They're like McDonald's defense. Good. Like, hey, he's got a good defense. That's why he got this job.

Sam Darnard, you forgot? Good. Also out there. I think they liked being under the radar as well. Kenneth Walker, man, I love that too. Well, especially if nobody's going to tackle him or try to get any lane. They're playing out there on a third and 20 in the fourth quarter. He had 100 yards on 13 carries, I think, so that was pretty good. Yeah, that's the other thing. He's running all

pissed off because they're using Zach Sharper. Yeah. So he's all, you know, motivated with him, with Sharpenet, kind of creeping up on him. For Pittsburgh, like the rule thing I saw people killing Caleb Johnson, rookie, remember coward use track went to harvard he didn't know the rules in the super bowl when it came to overtime but are people pissed at tomlin for this too like in pittsburgh just because like rookie not

knowing the rules you kind of point right at uh yeah not just for that also the defense is you know because that's his thing how much money is on defense set of all number one number one in the NFL I think like 150 million I didn't know the exact number but I just know it's number one in the NFL highest paid defense in the NFL and uh Kenneth walker's good runner He is. Jackson Smith and Jigua, he's a stud. Cooper Cup played really well yesterday. And also, if you think about Seattle, they're big coffee city, right? So 10 a.m. local start might have been good for nothing.

You know, that wake up at 5 a.m. local for this particular game in Pittsburgh. Okay, sick. Sun shining in Pittsburgh. That's great. I'm trying to do that. It was a beautiful day. Glorious day. Beautiful day. Across the board. Everything was set up for the Steelers. Oh, my God. It was. And I, Gumpy called me before. Hand. I was like, I'm feeling really. good and that kind of scares me and then it

happened. How boss did you guys give him a pay raise? Just give him payers? I keep trying to. Maybe they take some money from Hayward now that he can't stop the run. He got a deflection for a pick. You got a deflection for a pick and you look at those runs they weren't going through the head of Hayward.

That's true. They were going on the other side out there. Seems like that's been an issue back to back weeks, sir. Yes, it has. They just keep running away from Teach. They found the fish. Yeah. We just go this way. Move around. Oh. They said they would. But then what do they do?

They put them over there. Guess what they're going to do? They're going to run it out of the other way. I mean, at least make them think. Or you're coming to the game plan on Wednesday. You know, hey, 90s going to be here. The lieback is running. With the whole game playing away from them.

Stats guy, Daniel, Daniel Valenti. Here's Steelers ranks through two weeks per true media. True media always gets it right. Yep. Defensive success rate 31st, EPA per play, 29th. Know what that is. Exactly. Defensive success rate?

Yeah. Yeah, yards per play, 29th. Yards per game, 29th. Positional spending, first. That's via over-to-cap via True Media, via Daniels, that's right. You know, points allowed, 29. Not good. That is a cheese, Louise.

Jeez Louise. Steelers might be dead. Then we thought the Detroit Lions were done. Uh-uh. AJ, did you see them? Guess who's back? Back again. Dan Campbell is all you need to know, my friend.

He ran this up on the Chicago Bears. It looked like it was going to be a game early. Obviously, I think probably a lot of Lions fans were wondering what type of season it was going to be. A little carryover from week one into week two. Oh, maybe we do stink. Maybe all the new coordinators are a problem. Maybe we still have the guys, but we don't have the brains that we had last year. Everything's going to be shit again.

Oh, no. The Detroit Lions are just a Thanksgiving game where everybody wants. watches them lose. That is what was on the line for this Detroit Lions team. And the brand new lion showed up in a huge way, AJ. Among Ross St. Brown has three tuds. Jared Gough gets back on his bullshit. And the defense just said, nah, you're not scoring anymore. 50 some points. Obviously you blow out the Lions all the way back, AJ, at one in one after week two. I mean, I'm definitely feeling much better now than I did a week previous. But like, What about the Bears?

What about the team they were playing? Like, do you take any into account that they were playing the Bears and they looked this good? And they also had like the spike game situation. I didn't, I'm sorry. I was not aware of how pissed off they were at Ben Johnson. I really was not. I thought like, you know, it might be in a division rival, all that stuff. But, you know, everyone wants to be a head coach and he felt like that was best opportunity.

The Detroit Lions do not feel that way, do they? They feel like they had real hatred towards him taking that guilt. I thought the Lions fans had it, you know, it felt like it was a media-driven thing. Like, this guy, and, like, people that aren't around it, like, yeah, it could have why anywhere? Why do you go to Chicago? It's like, well, there's only certain jobs that open up, and there's only certain opportunities that you would take.

And if, you know, speak reasonably to a fan, fans of media reactions, I don't care. Why did he go to Chicago? We don't like Chicago. Why would he go anywhere near the NFC North? I didn't know, to your point, AJ, that trickled into the locker room. That definitely trickled in the locker room. Yes. Players were talking about it after the game.

I mean, that is, like, but you would think, to your point, AJ, business, like, the players understand business. business, business, especially at the NFL level, as opposed to the college level. I like that MCDC was probably in there stirring it up a little bit. He wanted to play you guys twice a year. That's what he thought of you. And the boys remembered it. Yeah, you know, the coaches always find a way to different ways to try to motivate the guys.

You can definitely tell. That was a message throughout the locker room. Now, Jared Gough, he had a handful of games like this last year, so who knows, maybe he was just back on his bullshit. You know, Bears are still kind of banged up on the back end. But yeah, seeing them spreading the ball around, seeing them be protected, seeing them get that running game back going was great. And then Jamo coming out after the game said, yeah,

I don't really feel much difference with Ben Johnson not being here. I thought that was very, very interesting. But you need these kind of games. Week one, look, the Packers, what we've seen from them so far, they may just be the best all-around team in football right now. So you take that lump early. You know you're going to see that team again down the stretch. And when you have a chance to put up a 50 burger against an opponent

that you have any type of history with, you do it. especially on your home turf. Great catch there. I also love the Jared Goff. We got to zoom in on his eyeballs. He's locked in laser focused. It's the brand new golf, not the same old Gooflofsky that people are saying.

Yes, exactly. And noticing these clips, he has so much time. And that was the key thing I wanted to watch all weekend to see if the offensive line could actually block for him. And if we could get the run game going. So we got the run game going, and then we go play action, and all of this opens up, and it's good.

Sonic and Knuckles again. Yes. They're good. because I don't like all these nicknames everyone has for our team right now, okay? Ass and cheeks, that's not nice. Gooflofsky, that's even worse.

Enough nicknames, okay? Sonic and Moose knuckles is pretty funny, Foxy. No. Moose knuckles is good. Yeah, okay, Gomses-Zano. Yeah, just a little bit of a retweet there from the back row if anybody else needed it. Let's go to the Bears.

There's some bad news coming out of Chicago. Adam Stuffter has reported Jalen Johnson. Pro Bowl corner for the Bears is out indefinitely with a groin injury, happy to hear it's just a groin, but also sucks that this has happened to Jalen Johnson, the way Adam Schaefter was kind of speaking. We thought maybe something very, very, very, very serious

was happening. It is a groin injury. The team is still evaluating the full extent of the injury, whether surgery is necessary and how long Johnson will be sidelined. Johnson exited the second quarter of the Bears lost to the lines after sustaining the injury while breaking a basket, miss all the training camp to preseason and Chicago's opener with a groin injury. Okay. So he came back

too early is what the easy thing is to say here at corner you got to be healthy yeah you got to be healthy in court yeah but they'll take advantage you will get exposed oh you're not healthy and those soft tissue things like if they i mean they take forever to hill if you have one of those are growing a calf a hammy a quad you got to kind of let it fully heal which is tough during the season a lot of people say you know you come into the season limping you're going to leave it limping so this is tough but hopefully he goes away and gets healthy and then comes back because he is a very very very good corner when he is healthy and out there playing football. What will the bears look like

whenever he returns? What will the expectations be on the bears when he returns? We don't know. Still a lot of season left for all teams. Never forget it. Four teams who've started O and two have made to the Super Bowl. You're right. Okay, four of them. So it's been done before. Yeah, it was the far right column

of the teams that go O&2. Bang, there it is. Four have made the Super Bowl, 45 have made the playoffs. You make the dance. You never know what's going to happen. You might be absolute ass right now. You might have got screwed. Maybe by caller 10. Just know there's a lot of games left, 15 of them. You can turn everything around. This ship can still sail into glory. Four teams made to the Super Bowl, you can still do that. I don't know if Dolphins fans feel that way right

now? No chance. That's O and 2. or Bears? Saints. Saints, dolphins, Browns, Panthers. Those are all. Chiefs or O and 2? Chiefs, yeah. Chiefs. On that note, let's talk about the Eagles. Eagles get another win, go into the kingdom, do their thing. People, Real pissed about the tush push because of all the penalties and how ugly it looks, AJ. Is this just a new thing or what with them getting such a great jump? I mean, good luck stopping this. There's no chance. They just run it to perfection.

But the thing is, though, like, everyone's technically allowed to run at what study and try to run exactly like the Eagles do. Well, we're running the dimes dive here in Indianapolis. There's no push behind that, is there? The dimes dive? Yeah. No. Nobody knows they're running it on the offense either.

You'll see it tight in and why is you're getting, like, the, The guys on the outside, the tight ends, wide receivers that are blocking, I think they end up at Danny Dimes' feet, too. I mean, they're getting tossed. Yeah, they get kind of shoved in there as well as their guy goes. So I think we're just trying to perfect it at this moment. We will. Know that we will.

It already has the kind of been. I almost ran one with Tyler Warren. That was a fake one. He got up on his soon. Yeah, and then they brought in their tackles and he drifts out. And then all of a sudden we try to run it out to the outside. Shane Steichen's always cooking. And they're going to run one with Warren.

It's going to be awesome because it probably won't be the Dimes dive. It'll be like the Warren jump and he's going to take like a wildcat snap and he's going to jump eight feet over the goal line into the end. See, what I'm thinking he's going to do is it's going to be the Warren Waltz. He's going to walk right down the field. He's going to take the snap and then he's just going to walk backpacking. Backpack. Sure. Like Neil Brown at Texas. Backpack.

Backpack. And then the boys in front of them are going to be Boralini. Yeah. Boralini. Sure. He's going to be pushing and rolling the pasta. the dough, right down there, and he's just going to walk. It's going to be a touchdown.

That might be the next play that everybody wants to ban. Can't tackle the Sasquatch. We know. Figure it out. It's football. Colts won in the Super Bowl, AJ. I don't know if you saw. Wild leverage call.

Wild call on that field goal. But you know what? What? Technically, you cannot. So he's saying he pushed off of him to try to jump. Yeah, he pushed down and he tried to break his neck. You can see him touching his brickboard up off it. That's classic leverage.

Oh, snap. In the rules, yeah. You cannot touch it. You can not touch them. I think the rule is stupid. I think you should be able to bulrush that dude and jump over top. But these are the rules. I get it.

Hey, I agree. If we're just going to play chaos with no rules, let's do it. Okay, let's just not play within the rules of the game. No, I mean, now the rules have changed. I'm saying the rule is dumb. But under the rules, yes, you can make that call. Well, for leverage as a defender, as Craig Rolls, I said, you're not allowed to place your hand on an opponent or teammates

and push off to propel yourself into the air to block a kick. In this case, number 92, came across the line to the right guard, and he put his hands on the right guard and pushed off him to elevate himself in the air in order to try and block the kick. You're not allowed to do that. It is a personal file and a 15-yard penalty. In this case, since it was the last play of the game and it was a foul on defense, we extended the game for one untimed down.

We assessed the 15-yard penalty, and they were able to run under the play. Is AI answering these questions? That doesn't sound like a human. No, it does. That's bullshit. You know, that's referees. There's no way that is coming out of somebody's mouth. I feel like I'm an above-average speaker communicator there.

That sounded like chat GPT answered that question. I could see that. That was a grok answer right there. I mean, for leverage, as a defender, you're not allowed to place your hand on an opponent or a teammate and push off to propel yourself into the air to block a kick. In this case, number 92, came across the line to the right guard, and he put his hands on the right guard

and pushed off him to elevate himself in the air in order to try and block the kick. You're not allowed to do that. It is a personal foul and a 15-yard penalty. In this case, since it was last plate, that sounds like a robot. I bet they did use chat GPT printed it out and we're like, this is what you said. Guys, who are we're talking about? We're talking about referees here.

This is what they are, they're not human beings. Valid. Can we ask AI if AI wrote that? Yes, you could. Yeah, you can copy and paste it. That doesn't sound like a human speaking. No, not at all. Because the way, does it?

I haven't heard Craig speak before, so. Yeah, it's true. We heard him speak at the game. He was holding He was pretty normal, he was funny, and... He's the white cap? Is that white cap right there? Yeah. He had a great game. A lot of flags.

MVP. A lot of flag. MVP, there was a lot of calls against the Colts that were a bunch of bull. Oh, I know. Hey, I enjoy watching the Colts play football. I really do. I truly do. But is the rule, I can't put my hands on them or I can't forcibly push? Do we know? Is like, hey, any contact is, boom, penalty goes.

I don't know if I call this a push. I'm not. push. He propelled himself, clearly. He did. See the springboard. And also, if you get in the air, I don't think you're allowed to land on anybody either. It's like another part of the rule that I think you could have. There's like six different things that they probably could have called on this. But I think what Broncos are saying is, is this happen on every kick?

Or are we just calling this on a game winner from 60 that the guy was nowhere near making and changes the entire outcome of the game? You got to have some balls to throw that flag. They were throwing a lot of flags. Yeah, you do. It was almost like you were calling it. Yeah, it was kind of going both the ways, though. Cote's got some shitty ones.

I think the Broncos got some shitty ones. But to call that one, like game winner, 60-yarder. And with that 60-yarder, you know, I think the end-the-game operation with all this stuff we've been talking about Danny Dimes and how much, how well they were moving the ball. I think we could have been a little more aggressive there. Maybe get a little more yardage. Don't set up spank for a 60-yarder.

but yeah that was that was a that was a that was a balsy call right there by the white cap or whoever threw it they were all throwing a lot of flags yeah i mean they really said hey it's our it's our league too and uh week one i don't think we talked about the refs much i think after that colts game my first takeaway was oh the refs want to be talked about a little bit after how much cragg's crew yep was throwing it but then changing the yeah leverage anytime you say that I can barely hear it get out of his mouth because all we saw was whatever it was and then this way and we're like

molligan time. 45-yard molligan guaranteed make for an NFL guy. Guaranteed make for an NFL guy. Look at him. Pull shoot. Yeah, you just can't do that. You can't push that. Gee, I got to kill him.

Point of emphasis. Now if the Colts do that, let's make sure we learn from this, boys, make sure it's not obvious. Well, and that's why, I mean, in Craig's defense, if you're going to do that, that was the time to do it. You're in Indianapolis, you've got a home game.

It's like, you know what? I'm going to be a hero in this city for the rest of this season. Okay, so if it's even close, I'm going to throw this flag. I'm going to make sure they win. The tone put it into chat, GPT. Yeah, and now this could be chat, GPT covering for AI, but it says the statement doesn't look like it was written by AI. It's actually very typical of the official post game,

pull report, explanations, NFO. They're all these guys are. So they got their own. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Injures. Who can we trust? No one. I want to let whichever AI know that made that call, we appreciate it.

We had a great time. Broncos fans are not thrilled about it. They are not thrilled about it. Some of the storylines around the NFL that we haven't really chatted about. Rams get a big time win. Oh, yeah. Congrats to Rams. Is AJ lose his focus a little bit up there.

Love that the Rams are going to be a real team. Pooka Nakua is untackle. This guy is outrageous. They just handed a ball off to him. It was very muddy. It was all Oos to the crib. Puka Nakua on a fourth

and one gets to the end zone. McVeigh seemingly always going to have great offense and on defense, they got dogs all over the place. Congrats to the Rams being a team. This West Coast now starting to have some teams over there are going to have to pay attention to. Oh yeah, and

Stafford and DeVante got going. DeVos had his first 100-yard game. As a ram, here's his touchdown right there too. in an absolute bucket. And then also for the Titans. Like, hey, this Texans team that we're going to see tonight, they only scored nine points on this defense. For Cam Ward, I mean, shoot, you're not looking for moral victories,

but last week we kind of talked about the tweet that said Cam Ward good, Titans bad. This play was unbelievable. I mean, this is across the field touchdown on third down. Like the stuff you're seeing as a Titans fan out of Cam Ward, you've got to be happy. But, yeah, the Rams are very much for real. They're going to be in it.

Titans 0 and 2, but everybody's saying, They got a guy down there. Congrats to them. Cardinals beat the Panthers. Panthers had a little bit of a comeback coming on. 273 was the score, and then all of a sudden, Panthers start piling it on, piling it on. Cardinals end up getting a win.

Are we in on the Cardinals? Oh, no. Are we in on the Panthers? No. And for whatever reason, it seems like these two teams play each other 12 times a year. I don't know how. But I watch this game at least three-fourths of the Sundays of the NFL. season. I think it was

Cardinals in Carolina a couple of years ago. Now they're out there. You're right. And when they're playing, we can probably look at the whole slate and go, this slate kind of ass. And it's always in the four o'clock slot. So there's only like one other game. Three of them are two and oh now, too. There's so many chances, you know, like so many chances that Kyler can create himself.

There's so much to like, I don't want to say fall for. Yeah. But for the Cardinals, there's so much. like, wait, could this be the year? Could this be the year? Obviously, we're fans of Gannon, Coach. Love Gannon.

We love the way they play. We love what Kyler's able to do. Are the Cardinals for real? I love Traybauds. Nobody in here saying yes. Love Booth Baker. Absolutely not. They're touring out of air.

They're touring O right now. AJ, nobody's showing him any love the Cardinals at all. That's good, though. They're in a good spot. I think they're in a great spot because of that. I know AQ will have his opinions on it, but I think they're like, imagine, though, just trying to just think about,

facing this dude like come on it would be impossible like i would hate to play against him i have a lot of respect for what he does but the cardinals i don't know what maybe eight nine games in then people will say okay one way or the other what they feel about no people still give him no credit they are a team that gets no credit i think personally undefeated right now now they're running the nmc south right now they're running the nfc south right now from the saints where kailer was up at 430 in a morning dumping and puking all over the place because a little food poised in dinner my little bag gumbo I didn't know they had that day I thought they only had good guble

I'll tell you what he didn't have any bad gaito no definitely if he would Governor Landry Jeff Landry ain't no chance there's bad gaita down now you shoot that Gato 8 in the head we go hunting that thing So he was sick week one they win now obviously he's playing his best ball

I like the Cardinals but you're talking about the undefeated people out there I mean that thing that's that conference is started that division started to look really good well and it's a different era but even when the Cardinals were 11 and no with Cliff Kingsbury it felt like no one really gave a shit just because the other team's in there. And I think that is the thing.

Like everyone loves the Rams. Everyone is pretty high on the Niners right now while they're healthy. And the Cardinals just always seem to be that team that aside from playing the Panthers six to seven times a year, they end up winning eight to nine games. Look unbelievable. Kyler does stuff just like this. And then inevitably, they kind of fall apart in the end. Yeah, it's all about who you're facing the last three weeks of the season.

If they're a better team than you, everybody's going to go into the offseason thinking you're not a good team. A team that we thought was going to be good, still undefeated. Cincinnati Bengals. AJ, you're obviously over there in Ohio. Just. Brutal. Never ends. It really seemingly never ends for the Cincinnati Bengals and the Bengals fan base.

Obviously this time, it'll be at least three months for Joe Burrow-esque surgery on a broken turf toe that he suffered yesterday on a very kind of normal sack seemingly. We've seen him take much tougher hits, much stronger hits. This one is going to be the one that is going to have Jake Browning. as the starting quarterback for the Cincinnati Bengals for the next three months? That's a long time. Fifteen games left in the season. Three months is 12 weeks. That's at the early of this thing. Could be 14.

And obviously there's a bye week in there as well, but this sucks for the Cincinnati Bengals and for Joe Burrow. AJ, your thoughts over there in Ohio? Yeah, well, they finally got out to that fast start that Zach Taylor has been chasing for the last what, three, four, five years. But unfortunately, yeah, losing Joe is just brutal. And I think

Browning can play. He can sling it, but nobody is Joe Burrow. We know, like, the Bengals are everything has run through Joe and for it to happen on a play like this too it's weird I don't know three months is wild I hope Jake Brownie can find a way but man he's going to need some help for sure yeah and there's a lot of

obviously in that play he skips out of the pocket comes back into the pocket he's under duress it's like that's kind of been the story of Joe Burrow with the Cincinnati Bengals even during their Super Bowl run I think he was sacked 11 times in one of the games and then nine times in another one of the game like eight in the Super Bowl

this has kind of just been the story including the final play with there in Donna, where if he has a half a second longer, he hits Tamar Chase. They might win the Super Bowl in this entire thing. So this has kind of been the story of the Joe Burrough Cincinnati Bengals. The AFC North, though, also a division that gets after the quarterback as well. So it's going to get exposed if you can't protect your quarterback. And obviously it happens here to Joe Burrow. This sucks.

It doesn't. Jake Browning had a good year last time he had to do this for Joe Burrough. So hopefully there's some hope. And he did lead them to the victory yesterday, even though he had three interceptions. and the jack like that game neither of those teams wanted to win that game and jemar chase was unbelievable yesterday but no like if you wanted to compete for the north and against the ravens like i think that might be probably out the window but there's still you know you still hold on hope for the playoffs and maybe there's a chance that joe can go back for that joe coming back

for the playoffs and the bengals going on a magical run would be insane 49ers and mac jones go down to new orleans and do their thing a mac i brought this up to schfter sheffer said no way, he is tied in there. Okay, D. Butt said no way as well, because there's 180 million in guarantees. It's one game, but if you're Kyle Shanahan, he wanted, he traded the future of the team to get this

dude at number three. And then he goes on his voyage from New England to Jacksonville, gets humbled multiple times, learns different offenses, learns different situations, is publicly executed, basically, publicly ridiculed and murdered by everybody in

football, saying this guy stinks, basically. then he ends up in Kyle Shanahan's offense Kyle is a guy that will make that decision Kyle is a guy that would do that $180 million maybe not but Mac and he looks great executing an offense with some injuries across the board AJ

Yeah they did and it wasn't just like Dinking and Duncan like Max pushing the ball down the field so I was impressed you would imagine that that Mac does have a good relationship with Kyle and they started off the right way let's see if they can find a way to keep this up but yeah Mac did he looked apart

Maybe he is like a little, a little more mature. We'll see, I guess, one of the first time he slides if he tries to kick the dude in the dog, what happened. Maybe if Kyle wants him to do that or not. But yeah, good first start for sure. I forgot that he was a dong kicker, whatever. He had a lot of stuff that made him very hateable. But he was playing for a team that was hated by the masses at the time, a little bit different now. I think most people are kind of indifferent to this era.

New England Patriots beat the hell out of the dolphins in a close one. Patriots get a win, AJ. Drake May looks like he's real or the Patriots real con man? I would say so. I would say the bones of the Patriots are real. Again, it's going to be tough because Pittsburgh this upcoming Sunday, it's one of those situations where until they beat a team that you know is good, it's going to be impossible to say, hey, the Patriots are back

until they do something of relevancy against the Buffalo Beal. What do you think, AJ? Do you think the Patriots are a good team? You think Dolphins' ass team? This was a battle of this game. I think a little bit of both there. I think Patriots aren't a good team. They're definitely not a great team yet, but I think they have the possibility to become great late in the year, man.

People are talking about dolphins as if they are just ass cheeks. We're talking about getting clapped every week. 15 more games, got capability to become the first ever team to be 0 in 17, as well as being the first ever team to go completely undefeated back in 1972. The dolphins have both ranges potentially on the horizon. What are your thoughts, D-Butt South Florida got? It's ugly. It's ugly right now.

The things that is most concerning is the quarterback and the head coach not being on the same page when it comes to personnel and operation and all these things. They've been together for, what, four years now. So if you came into this season, that was the thing you wanted to hang your hat on our. We got explosive weapons. Tyreek did finally have a 30-plus yard catch. He had a 47-yard. He went over 100 yards. But he had another terrible interception talking about to it.

And then defensively, even though we don't have a bunch of household names on defense, I thought we had some good. players, a good defensive coordinator, so forth. The Dolphins, to start off, I believe, first 10 or 11, however many drives to give up points on every drive, that is, that's tough. Yeah, and I don't know if the Patriots are good or bad, but I am pretty quite sure that Drake May is good, and that's all it really matters. I'm pretty quite sure the same thing. The Patriots also have a 50-year-old coach who's trying to roll with kickoff return. Yeah, exactly.

How's he not pop his hammy here? Look at that lean. It's a good leg. It's unbelievable. I mean, everything about it. He's at 90, knees at 90, good lean on there. And I don't know if he thought he was going to keep up with him or not. Looks like he's running a little bit of mud, but he certainly got down there. The Patriots all the way back on, man. Yeah, and it does feel like it is a little bit of a different vibe. I'm not going to say people like the Patriots or anything or they want them to be good.

But it does feel like there is some sort of buzz around like, hey, the NFL is almost better when the Patriots are good. It feels like Vrable also pretty baby-faced over with a lot of fans. Like I almost feel as though you guys in a lot of the country wants. of the New England Patriots to be good, and that is why we're all Patriots. You said NFL is starting to realize that it's better when the Patriots are good. That's Boston, brother.

That ain't the rest of that. That ain't very boldly. One last thing, a little bit of an update here from Jeremy Fowler, about the Baltimore Ravens, a team that could potentially go win a Super Bowl. Lamar Jackson, number one passer rating in the history of the NFL, absolute beast with the arm and obviously on the ground. And now, Kyle Van Nuoy is potentially going to miss

multiple games due to a hamstring injury. suffered on Sunday. Not going to call mold, but I'm just going to say sometimes as you age, these types of injuries linger a little bit. Kyle is in incredible shape, takes care of his body very well. We assume he'll be back as soon as physically possible. Bummer, though, for this Baltimore Ravens team. Yeah, bummer. You always want one of your best pass rushes out there, let him in Sacks last year. But as you mentioned, as you get older league, these things get tougher to bounce back from. But hopefully he has the proper amount of time to recover and then finish this season strong. But I feel like the Ravens,

defense, they obviously have the pieces. They have the talent. They just got to continue to get better weekend and week out. Ladies and gentlemen, joining us now is the undisputed super middleweight champion. I think he's currently a champion at five different weight classes. Jeez. It's kind of all over the place.

42-0 and L. No big deal. You never fought anybody. You never fought anybody. Who would you like? Well, Kenella Alvarez. Well, he's like 15 pounds heavier than me. Well, why don't you fight him? Sure. I'll do that. And then what will I do?

Put on a master class in the fight of the century. The fighter of the century out of Omaha, Nebraska. Ladies and gentlemen, Terrence, Bud Crawford. How's it going, man? Oh, great. Going great. Hey, we appreciate you represent America out there, brother. The fight of the century and getting a big time win.

How does it feel here? A couple of days removed. I don't know how many hours, maybe 36 hours removed from that fight. Did it feel special when you're in there? Immediately afterwards, did we celebrate this thing properly? Of course it felt special. You know, it was a historical moment, historical fight. I just chilled out of the words.

Went to dinner and just came back and relaxed. Been there, done that, brother. My first fight, it's my 43rd. Okay, you got to do what you got to do. Ninth round. You had it won. I think everybody thought. Like, you were winning the fight.

Then there was a moment where you two just went to the middle, almost a point at the middle of the ring and say let's just bang here let's get after it what is the mindset is it to put on a show do you think in this moment okay I'm built for this and also I can now class him in here like what is the strategy round around and in this exact moment

did it feel like a Legion Stadium just needed some fireworks real quick well you know it's a fight you know like I said before you know we're going to do a lot of switching up and we're going to do a little bit of everything in there. We're going to do a little bit of boxing. We're going to do a little bit of banging, counterpunch it.

You know, it's going to go a lot of places in that room. And that's, you know, one of the places that it end up in is in the middle of the ring. Have you seen the clip? Obviously, you saw it live in person. I don't know if you remember every single moment of every single fight. You caught him. You caught him with a great left. His head spins and then he looks back at you almost like a white. Why, I did not expect that. I did not expect that.

Neither of you guys obviously get knocked down ever. It felt like you caught him with a few. Was there a moment where you thought maybe you ended it on, like, as you connected, and then his jaw maybe impressed you? Or what was kind of the feel as you're kind of figuring each other out with the power and the strength of the shots to each other? Not at all. Canelo is a strong fighter.

actually when I caught him with that shot he was actually you know anticipating the right hook so he kind of rolled and then was anticipating the right hook a little bit so you know that's kind of why he looked at like it was like

had him on skates in there go ahead AJ yeah how do you prepare for a fight like this are you a guy that sits there do you watch a bunch of his older fights or his most recent fights. And I guess when you do bring a game plan into a fight, are you constantly changing that, especially in between rounds?

Are you making adjustments that your corner is given you and you can actually execute those in the next round? No, to be honest, you know, I don't watch a lot of fights in camp of my opponent because I know they're not going to fight me the same way. I let my team handle that, let my team make sure that I'm in the best position possible for myself

so I just want to sharpen myself up and then fight week I watch a little bit of fights and see just to refresh my memory of what they attended is and what they like to do and then I make my adjustments

gonna fly in the fight okay so when you're in there early you're feeling like oh wait a minute because obviously there's a mystique of Canello just like you have the mystique of Terence fucking Crawford here so this was why it was is the fight of the fight? There's a feeling out process.

And then is there a moment, it's like, ooh, I got a good tell on this guy, I got a good quick, was that early? Is that going into the fight you feel that? Do you just maintain that confidence throughout it all? Or is the first couple rounds a moment for you to realize, okay, maybe this works, maybe this doesn't work? Yeah, the first couple of rounds is always fell out round,

see what you can get away with and what you can't. And then, you know, you go from there. You make, you know, assessment on what works and what don't. Size looked good in the fight. On that note, Dibut has a question for you. Yeah, champ, you kind of talked about your camp and get ready for the fight. What was it like putting on the weight

to jump up a couple of weight classes? How did you feel in the ring as far as your speed and as far as your power once you got in there? I felt great. I felt strong. It wasn't a sense of putting on a lot of weight. Like a lot of people is, you know, running with that narrative and said he had to put on all this way like no i just didn't have to

lose too much weight you know that way i could put on you know a little way here and there because of course i get to do more in strength of condition but i didn't have to put on too much weight okay i ran with that narrative i thought you're fucked that's what everybody was saying the people that ran with that narrative convinced me that that was a narrative because i don't know the world as much the thought of not having to lose weight is probably a happier probably a happier was it a how was camp good camp it was great you know it wasn't a camp that we was focused on weight you know so we could just focus on my craft and focus on you know getting stronger which we was already strong you know but you know we we don't know what we up against so you know we definitely want

to make sure our body is prepared for whatever onslaught Canela brings. So of course, you know, we won't, you know, cross our eyes and dot our T's. And, you know, that's what we did in training. You looked unbelievable. You looked absolutely unbelievable. Not that you ever don't, but it's just like, this guy looks like he is very prepared. And then as the fight continued, it felt that way. Turkey a la al-hishik deemed you the fighter of the century. And obviously, Ring Magazine and TKO come together to put this incredible event together. What has it been like? know, with the modern world of boxing now, that Riyadh season has gotten involved.

And obviously Dana and Nick Kahn of the WWE, and it feels like anything is possible in the boxing world now? Is that the big takeaway that we should think after you and Kinello fight and have the success? Or how do you kind of view it all? Yeah, for sure. You know, anything definitely possible, you know, when a lot of people kept saying that what I was trying to accomplish was impossible. And I just kept saying it's impossible until somebody do it, you know, and I'm going to be the one to do it. And a lot of people looked at me and just, they said, okay, you know, and, you know, now I made a believer out of all of it.

Yeah, you got that ring to that. Terry, turkey pointing that ring. Yeah, yeah, yeah, how you doing? You got one of these? You don't. I do. Allegiance Stadium, 70,000 plus watching me dance around Canelo. Yeah, I'll class them.

That's what all the super boxing people are saying. Outclass, outclass. But it started a little differently than you normally start. Go ahead, Con, man. Yeah, bud, you are the main attraction whenever you're fighting, but this fight you were the first entrance. Normally you were kind of clean-up hitter. Here we go.

The attraction is here. Was it weird having to wait inside the ring while Canello's doing his walkout? Did it feel like almost one of your early fights from that aspect? Just because you were already in there? Not at all. You know, it's part of the game. You know, I've been, you know, and that, position before. You know, it's been a long time, you know, but at the same time, I understand,

you know, that he was the ace, and he was the champion, and I was, you know, the challenger coming to take his title. So, you know, me going, walking before him, hey, so be it. When the bell ring, it's all the same. You should have put one of those 40-50-pound things on that the Deont de Walder. Just test yourself. Just test yourself. Have that on the entire time. I assume that phone call was Turkey or

Dana or Canello saying when's the rematch or when does that type of conversation start for you? I already saw you getting called out by folks. I don't know. You know, right now I'm resting and my victory and

I'm going to go back to my family and I'm a just chill for a minute. Yeah, take it in, brother, fighter of the century. Yeah, yeah. Once in a century fight. All the time. Looking who's the champion, me.

I'm going to enjoy that and let everybody else handle it. You're going to go back home, we assume to Omaha, Nebraska might have a team over there. Go ahead, Tone. Yeah, champ, we all saw the Nebraska logo on the mouthpiece. That looks sick. How do you feel about Coach Rul and the boys this year? I feel great about them. You know, every year I'm always pulling for him.

I think this year we got a great team, and, you know, we got a great. staff and I'm looking forward to big things with Nebraska Cornhuskers. Can you tell me something about anybody can be a nobody because I saw a Matt Rule hear you say it and now that's becoming like the Nebraska Cornhuskers, I think like mantra, is that your thing? Well, you know, listen, everybody always say that I fight nobody's, you know, and that was a big thing, you know, in the press conference because, you know, I remember telling Canelo, so you're going to be a nobody when I step a mullah hole with your eyes.

I just want to everybody to remember that, you know, everybody that I fight, they say, oh, they know, they nobody's or they washed or they did. So, you know, anybody can be a nobody. Yeah, we can certainly make them that way, yeah, for sure. So I like that. I like that phrase, you know, anybody can be a nobody. Well, on a deeper thing, like anybody can be a bum and be a nobody. You know, it takes a lot to not be a nobody.

And the amount of work, obviously, that goes into all of this is something that not everybody gets to see every single day. Your commitment to your crafting your sport was on showcase in front of 70,000 people. And now you're five division champion, the super, doper, doper, doper middleweight champion. I mean, it's just like, and we don't know what the money is, but we heard what it could have been, and then we heard what else it could have been. And we assume it's that one, you done good, bud. Yeah, you done good, bud. AJ has another question for you.

Go ahead, AJ. Yeah. the venue. It looked amazing on TV. Being in person, I can imagine watching it would be great, but what was it like for you fighting inside there in Allegiance Stadium? It was electrifying. It was great. I remember my first time ever in Arena was at WrestleMania. And I walked, when I went in, I looked around, and I was like, dang, I kind of got nervous because I was like, man, look at all these people in here. You're going to be fighting in this mug in September.

I was just preparing myself mentally of what it was going to feel like, what it was going to look like, you know, and me walking in that arena, it was like, whoa, you know, once I walked out, all that went away. It was like, it's showtime, you know, so go out there, have fun, be the star in the sky, and do what you do best. So, you know, I was more relaxed. I was more, you know, ready than ever, you know, for that moment. I was watching all the stars ringside go crazy for you. Were you feeling that in the moment? Did you see? Chappelle's losing his shit right over here going crazy for butt.

Did you feel that, see that? And who all did you chat with afterwards? Well, I seen Dave Chappelle afterwards, but, you know, during the fight, nah. I just seen, you know, my corner of Shakur, Stevenson. I've seen Bill Haney and Devon. Two other people, I've seen Chance, a rapper, you know, in the crowd, you know, the people I kind of made eye contact with. While you're fighting?

No, before and while, you know, like, fuck. Not while fighting, but like action and things like that. Canello, chance right there. Yeah, last question for Debug. Go ahead, Bob. Yeah, you and Canello obviously have a ton of respect for each other. And I saw something you did after the fight. You handed him back a bunch of his.

titles. Now, I don't know how often does this happen. I know they're customized every time you win one, but how often does it happen that you actually hand it back to the fighter? Well, you know, them, and it's his titles. You know, it's all respect, you know, like I told everybody for, you know, a long time. I'm like, man, me and me and, me and Canelo, you know, I got a lot, a ton of respect for Canello. You know, I'm a fan of Canello. I always been a fan of Canelo, and, you know, I wanted to be the one that give him back his belts. I didn't want my team hand him back to his belts. I wanted to be the one that give him back his belts.

That's sick. All you guys that fight each other for a living seemingly have such a better sense of maturity about it all than I would for anybody else. It was an honor to watch you work. Are you in the Fountain Blue right now? Yes, sir. That place is beautiful. We're there for WrestleMania.

That place is glorious. Enjoy it all. You've earned it. It was an honor to watch you fight on Saturday, and we can't wait to see what you do next. Thank you. Ladies and gentlemen, that is the champion. And it's Budcroft. Yeah, baby champ, Territ.

70,000 people boxing. Yep. Awesome. Yeah. We're fighting a century, two names. It was stunning at Mania, too. You can attest to that, just being in there. Yeah, the stadiums, anytime the stadiums have a ring in them, like any of the WrestleMania's,

just walking out before anybody gets in there and you're just kind of looking at the layout it's like, geez, how are they going to people are going to fill this whole place? That's a big, it's a lot of area. Yeah, both nights actually. And then you come walking out on the stage, walk out on the stage, you're just kind of like,

it's hard not to just be like, whoa, holy fuck. Super Bowl, kicking off Super Bowl, that was hard not to just be like. Could you feel the flashbulbs going as you're approaching the ball? Yeah. I thought maybe I had a little bit of wardrobe malfunction. You know, I thought there was a reason, you know.

Something hanging out of here with it. Oh, no, this is history. Got it got it, got it. Let me not whiff on this thing. It's pretty good. Not the best kickoff in the history of Super Bowl, but it's not the worst. That's all bad.

Last time the co-started 2-0? Huh? Mm-hmm. Lost in the Super Bowl to Saints? Got all the way to Super Bowl. Don't worry, that's not happening this year. Saints aren't going anywhere. Yeah, you're right.

Maybe the backer. Maybe the dolphins lose. that title being the only team that goes under Feeding. That might be the one thing we only ever hold on to. You watch the coach, brother. You got eyes on it. You're in the barn. Larry Zonka brother. Never take that. You were in the

barn, brother. I was there. You seen it? Coach for something special. All right, we will continue digitally. We'll have Adam Ray join us in the next hour. We'll also show our full conversation on Brandon Aubrey, the kicker of the Dallas Cowboys. We've got a chance to catch up with him and this morning. He's a guy. He's

going to be a guy for a long time. We're thankful for him. And AJ has this message to say to everybody who's maybe a little down in the dumps today. Enjoy the double Monday night football tonight, everybody. It should be a good one. Double barrel Monday night football. We'll back tomorrow to ever react to it all. Goodbye. AJ.

Wow. Dano on one of their games. I was going to, does Dano doing one? Oh, yeah. Early one. We try to have him. He's on the early one? Yeah, he's on the, yeah, he's on Box, Texans.

Okay. That's sick. We try to have him on today. He's got a production meeting. You know, ESPN NFL runs. those, so we'll go ahead and put those right through the entirety of the show. Very kind to them. And also, they need

to do it because they don't get to work together as much. And I assume tonight is going to go flawless. Cannot wait to watch. Buccaneers and Texans, 10 o'clock 1, I'm going to try. Yeah. I'm going to try. I'm going to give it my best go.

I'm pulling for me to watch that entire game. You stayed up for the Canelo Crawford fight. Bingo. I was getting a lot of calls from a lot of people. but everybody was there. I don't know if you guys saw. Yeah. Oh, yeah.

Everybody was there. Stay through. There was billions and billions and billions and billions and billions and billions and billions and billions and billions and billions and billions and billions of dollars in that stadium. Hundreds of billions of dollars. Maybe maybe trillions of dollars in that stadium. I was getting text from everybody. When do you get to fight? Not going.

What do you mean you're not going? No. I was in Tennessee. I just got back. Put my daughter asleep. you're not coming to this no who made that decision that that's what everybody said i'm like me motherfucker that's far flight what do you want me to do everybody is here it's fire to say true everybody is here that you've done business with do business with or will do

business with in the future where the fuck are you i just put mackenzie down she's actually pretty rowdy tonight it's kind of uh go shot couch i'm kind of a i'm kind of a little tired actually early morning tennessee i'm a little tired or whatever this is how outrageous. They're going to tell stories about this is what they said. I bet. And then I see the people that are all calling me sitting ringside. They look like they're having a fucking great time. And I look around them, I'm like, fucking

everybody is there? Oh, my God, would have been nice to do some business with that person. Oh, my God. This is what I'll say. If they want to do business with you, they'll come to you. I was going to say, absence makes the heart grow fonder. Yeah, and we have become known as the group of people that don't go to those things. You're not their lap. Precisely.

Fucking lap dog, all right? We get invited to these parties. Yeah. Thanks, but no. Everybody wears white. Yeah, I don't think so. We get invited to these fests. You know, everybody's going to beat her.

Okay. We'll see. We'll see. I'm excited for it. I don't think we're going to make it. Next year, next year, next year, next year. We usually always make it to the Super Bowl parties and all those cool get-togethers. We've got to be the only ones that do the super.

That's the only reason people go to the entire. Yeah, we'll see you there. Yeah, we'll see it there night for sure, guys. Just can't do it. As a group, we have never done one. right. We did one. You guys did one. You were the Posner. That was called football. That was a national championship.

That was awesome. That was college football. That was a great one to go to. That was the right one to go to. It was. It was what? Two hour to drive away from the hotel? It was so far. It was fucking perfect. Honor drove us in a minivan. Great driving. It was fun. That was a great time. But that's the only one we've ever been to whether NFL or called. Yeah. It's going to be a new us. We're going to go extend the olive bridge these people for sure.

Yeah. Bruce, why don't you tell him we're coming? Noted. Walk in the rare carpet. That's one thing we're not doing. Not doing that. I guess we just had to do that at the SPs, didn't we? No, we avoided it.

We had to do the picture. Well, yeah, I guess, yeah, they did just hurt us like cattle in front of the... Forced us to do a picture at the SPs. It's good pick. I'm happy we did it. Happy we did it. Wasn't planning on doing that. And then they're like, all right, you're heading this way.

No, I'm not. I am not going down that thing. We're walking in. Everybody's going now. We don't have another entrance. sweet we're going to go ahead and get on out of here we can find another then we're lost in the bowels yeah we're in the legitimate bowels they were just worried about cups at that point gump there's no way gumpy was going to find us

down in the boughs he had come through the front door yeah comp he had to come through the front door which is the right move to get to us by the yeah we're not good at that stuff but that fight I guess was would have been a nice we went to slap fest we did boom we extended that's nothing I want to go I need to go to one of those Those sound pretty sweet. Okay. We already did that, so it's going to be tough to get us to go to another one. Yeah, that's on you.

But I think you... I'll recruit something. Maybe Mitt will come with me and be my plus one. Oh, fuck, yeah. Just know you have to wear. We got to give you guys the microphones, the thing. And then we'll have talk with the camera and Bailey with a camera. That honestly would be a lot of fun.

I would really enjoy myself. I'm not joking. Yeah, but everybody you're going to walk into is going to have at least one audio person and one camera person for themselves. Every person there had their own. Goofball convention. It was a goofball. It was a bit of a goofball.

All these things, kind of a goofball convention is what we're talking about. But they're good people. Trying through their thing. All right, we're back on the other side. We got Adam Ray joining us. Can I wait to chitch out with him? See the energy and spicy he braces. Five sold-off shows here in Indianapolis.

Let's go. Happy for him, man. That's good news. He was also great vibes in a suite yesterday. He is a Seattle Seahawks fan, so his vibes were up because of what they did to the Pittsburgh Steelers. But then also, you know, that's Seattle, Pacific Northwest fandom, loud.

He was doing a lot of yelling. A lot of yelling. He was hoping. Third, Don, let's get this thing loud. Okay. Yeah, we're talking. He was trying to be somebody that brought happiness and joy in a win.

Because if we would have lost with him in there, obviously. Yeah, get this guy to fuck out of here. What the fuck at him. Forever. Yeah. We're the best team of football a week ago. That's right.

You fucking pop in here and we lose. Yeah. So he didn't want that. So he was helping team win. He was up there with Blue. Yeah. Getting it going. Back on Jumbotron.

He's up there. Do you get anybody? No cream pies for anybody, but that we saw. But it was a joyful night. Adam got a little bored with the dance. They started doing his own. Good move. Started to his own remix.

I like it. Yeah, he was having a good time. Place was alive. Alright, let's wrap up all the storylines. Let's make our predictions for tonight. How do we do this weekend? How do we do on picks? Do we know?

I have not seen, AJ. This is real. I have not seen it. It wasn't me. Eight and six, you did good. Boom. Whoa. Comes down to the night, boys.

We got two tonight. Okay. All right. I think I know which way I'm leaning so far on these two games. All right, which way? We'll see, won't we? Well, I'd just like to know which way. I'm going to be forced to go here, you know, which will be...

I don't know yet, but I'm a big Baker-Mayfield fan, and I do like Justin Herbert. Okay. All right, I'm okay with that. If that's how it ends up going. I'm okay if that's how this ends up going. I don't know, though, actually. I'm not exactly sure because C.J. Stroud is the man.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. And Dino is legit. We made our decision already. Didn't you already make your decision? I didn't make any decisions yet. I just told you where I'm leaning, bud. Do you want to pick him right now? He should have to send his picks off of there.

AJ, what's your pick? For which one? First game, Buccaneers, Texans. What's the money on right now? The money. I'll give me bucks at plus two and a half or plus three, whatever it is. 52% on the bucks.

Okay, 52% is on the bucks. Plus two and a half is the biggest he can get? The odds are yes, plus two and a half is the biggest Okay, so that means I'm on the Texans minus two and a half and for a second game you got? Give me the Chargers. All right, and I'm on Pete Carroll on his birthday and the Raiders plus three and a half

is that the most? Can I get four? Three and a half is across the board. Okay, so I got plus three and half with the Raiders and minus two and a half with the Texans at home. Dibut, do you like the picks? Who do you like? I go, I got Texans at home as well, minus two and a half and the Chargers on the road ruining Pete Carroll's birthday. They win and they cover.

In Las Vegas, they just had to cross. That's a tough barn. I am a little afraid that hook, but, you know, it is what it is. You've seen the headlines. Heard the debates. The three-point ball has created a monotonous rhythm to the game. Has the three-pointer ruined basketball? And how did we get here?

The rise of a three-point shot can be partially traced to an eccentric Kansas genius named Martin Manley, whose story didn't turn out quite the way he imagined. I decided I wanted to have one of the most organized goodbyes in history. 30 for 30 podcast presents chasing basketball heaven available now wherever you get your podcasts talk about stepping up it's time to level up your game introducing the all new ESPN app all of ESPN app all of ESPN all in one place your home for the most live sports and the best championship moments the electricity is palpable step up your game with no annual contract required it's the ultimate fan experience Level up for more on the ESPN app or at stream.esPN.com.

Good. It's always nice whenever we see you over there. you know it's great to get you off stage but it's because we have somebody special on stage that's right sure and obviously every day we have a nine-year NFL vet deris jay butler coming through his big brain he looks so cool but ladies and gentlemen uh you know him from either a stand-up comedy or stand-up specials or from kill tony where he is a multitude of characters or you know him from young rock where he was vincent McMahon tough casting yeah tough cast that is a tough guy yeah i have to do Yesterday, he was a die-hard Colts fan, ladies and gentlemen, Adam Ray.

There it is. There it is. You nailed it. I had the towel. Me and Sally were doing jello shots in the bathroom. I mean, the vibes were high, dude. I don't know why you're in a bathroom

with my mother, Sally. It was her birthday yesterday. She was trying to add a little spice to the show. Yeah, it was her birthday. Happy birthday, Sally. Sorry, add a little spice, yeah. Tim McAfee loves hearing that. He's on his way back with his guns.

No, no. You were a great fit in the suite yesterday, dude. Thank you for coming through. Hospitality. You guys, I'd never been to a stadium. The vibes were so high. People were so excited. I hadn't been, you know, you just get, it's infectious. Like when people are going that crazy. And you see the Peyton Manning statue out front. You see the, you know, the McAfee statue. They're starting to build it, right? Yeah. No, they're not. But they will. But they will. We got to believe, as radio said, you know. And it's, it was, he said something. I haven't seen it. But it was, he did say a lot of things. He said something like that. He said something, man. Shout out to Cuba. But he, it was. It was. It was. wild, man. You guys being 1-0 and Jones at the helm and the good D and I mean, dude,

Tyrese right at the beginning was so sweet to me and he was asking me what my diet plan was and I was like, you know, six push-ups a year and crustables and he'll be back soon, but it was awesome man. You guys do it. Don't you be telling anything to Tyrese. We need

him on, grow chicken. Yeah. Groch chicken, yeah. Avicano smoothies. All the H-Chi-H. All the steroids. All the steroids. All the steroids. Get him back. shot up with everything. He doesn't need uncrustables right now. Uncrustables, although they are delightful. Delicious, dude.

They're so good. What was the pregame snack back in the day? I was an uncrustable guy, for sure. For real? Yeah, I like Reese's as well. And then my, what's that called? The metabolic rate hit zero. And I started getting fat for everything.

The uncrustable stat that comes out of the NFL, I forget the number. 10,000, I believe, a month for NFL teams and encrustibles. Wow. Yes. So whenever you're talking about Tyrese, he's locked in his house right now. he's trying to go to events you know so he can be alive but he's doing rehab and going home he's doing some gaming and he's told me who's talking a lot of shit to some kid and uh nom on halo or something exactly he's good he's got to be

doughty he's a gamer 2k and yeah but he don't need to be thinking about uncrustables because one of those uncrustables you know that turns into well oh it's a gateway snack it to another one yeah and another all of a sudden we got 400 pound tyrus alberton bro as a former fact kid i'll tell you i used to dip pop tarts double-fif thing into Cool Whip. Thanks, Dad. Where's my thanks, Dad, Cam? Who left, yeah.

No, that's what happens. But you eat your feelings. But Pop Tarts also, shout out. So delicious. It's Kellogg's fault for having 97 flavors. Did you see the movie? The Pop-Tart movie? Yeah.

Oh, the Seinfeld one. Yes. Yeah, it was all right. Yeah. It was good. It was, yeah. The story, I don't think anybody knew the story, so. I'm happy to know the story.

Yeah. I don't know what people were expecting everything else, but... I wish it had more of a twist. I wish, like, Harrison Ford came in at the end and was just like, I work at post you're all going to die I wanted a little more action Seinfeld was just like

you know there's not enough strawberry I didn't see it but you were flying high yesterday because flying high man because the Seahawks beat the hell out of the Pittsburgh Holy shit so we just give it up one time for SD card as I'm calling him Sammy Donald no one's catching on with that nickname but he

is he's dialed in man our defense looks strong I think we had 146 yards passing week one against the Niners 268. shout out to my white rapper brother-in-law, Dirtay, who hit me up with a bunch of stats. He hit me up. Dirtay, look him up. Dirtay, look him up.

Dirtay, look him up. He's got Dirtay's got a lot of hit songs. One's called I'm an asshole. One's called, is this my life? One's called Watch You Back, Adam. He's on Twitter. He's on Instagram. No, no. We had our beefs. He's a great guy, great dad. What do you say? He goes, dude, Rogers has very few red zone interceptions. We held

DK to 20 yards, the defense without Witherspoon. I mean, that's the thing. I think going to the game, I was nervous because I'm like, we are shortchanged, but we got Big Cat, we got SD card, we got Mikey McDee, you know, I don't know, I feel good. Losing last week sucked,

and I think, you know, a lot of Hawks fans started to panic because we lost, missed the playoffs by one game last year. So, I mean, you can probably attest to this better, but I know it's early in the season, but still, every game still fucking Matt.

Yeah. You can curse, right? Yeah. All right. Fuck it. Fucking math. Yeah. Yeah. fucking right. It fucking does, bro.

But it does matter. I don't know. But it was big. On the road, too, it was a good test. Does Derte swear in his music? Bro, Derte, I mean, he's... Let me hear a little bit like D.M... Yeah, he got one?

I mean, he's a little bit like D.M... I mean, you know, I have these old... Dirté's like DEMX. I used to say, I go, when your sister comes home and is like, oh, my God, I met someone special. The next one's out of your mouth usually aren't. I hope it's a semi-locally famous rapper named Derte. I hope he talks about opening for DMX once all the time.

And he did, and he does. But he's the shit, and he rips it. Look him up on YouTube, follow him. I think he's at Dirty on Instagram, but, dude, he, he believes. Is that an E with a thing? No, it's D-A-Y-R-T-A-Y. Oh, good.

His shit slaps. Norm can tell you, Norm, Slaps. Like, Norm, D-A's got some shit to him? He's got some slaps, dude. Oh, you like that. He opened for DMX, ain't nobody just doing that. When I first met him, I go, I go, you have the face of a dad whose kids probably call you by your first name,

because we were kind of going tip for tat, you know? And he was like, what's at me? I was like, you know how like if your friend, you know, like your friend's dad doesn't command a lot of respect. And he's like, all right, boys, time for bed. And the kids are like, fuck you, Dustin. And you're like, all right. Hold me down to my birthday, maybe, you know. But he's, he's killing it, dude.

AJ has a question. Hey, Joe, good to say it. Hey, I hope I can count your vote in 2095. Hey, how are you? Hey, I think we'd go. We take naps at the same time, don't we? Go ahead. Mr. President, thank you for coming.

Yeah, Mr. President, my parents, my kids actually call me. me age. So they don't even call me a nickname for my first name. Not even your name. Maybe I need it. So disrespectful. Yeah. Oh, no. It's actually respectful. I take it the other way. Yeah. But like, hey, no, that guy. Get me a juice. Yeah. Go ahead. I want to ask about your prosthetic guy or your prosthetic lady, whoever it might be. Yeah. It's part of it's part of your characters, but you are

what the characters are, whether you were in costume or not. Who does that? We do a Halloween show here and I'm always doing my own makeup and everything for whatever cost of my house. Yeah, certainly. Yeah. I mean, you're, yeah. I got to be honest, dude, until I'm just seeing you live when I would see you on the tube I thought this was all a prosthetic so it's good to see that this is actually real just not doing its job

so yeah dude when I met this girl Jen Aspenow she was on Mad TV the CW did a mad TV reboot for one year I'll hold for applause exactly I was all in Mad TV welcome back

because you know when you think of CW you think a comedy and uh sports too they're doing that they're doing sports yeah but we also know for one tree hill right Smallville. Smallville.

A lot of vampire stuff. A lot of Vampire Diaries. But they had Gloryhole comedies on C-Dub. They're coming back,

dude. There's something for everybody. Dude. But you don't know what it is, which is part of the thing. Hey,

I used to check ideas at a glory hole in Delaware. But, no, her name's Jen Aspenal and she, you know, from S&L,

Mad TV, West World. She won an Emmy. I played Jay Leno on Pam and Tommy, the Hulu show that Seth Rogen did. They put me in like four hours of makeup.

to do Jay Leno, she won an Emmy for that. And so during COVID, my wife and I were sitting around watching, you know, just bored, look, you know, drunk high, looking for content. We're like, how many more times can we watch Tiger King or, you know, two girls, one. Like, we need a new show, right? Yeah, sure. A new show. We know how it is, you know? And so these Phil reruns would come on, and that's how the Dr. Phil thing started.

And I hit her up, and she's bored, and we're not doing anything. So I was like, I kind of want to do these, like, lost Phil episodes with my buddy online. And so, and she's just a gangster and a goat. And so she did that. She did, you know, the Tony Hinscliffe and the Joe Biden. And she did Shane's Trump for that episode of Kill Tony. And it's cool, man. She's kind of the goat for character makeup.

But you're right. It's like, whatever you bring to it, even doing, you know, Tony on Kill Tony, when, you know, doing all that, you know, un-fucking believable. We're really doing it right then. You know, oh, my God. Pat McAfee. Pat McAfee.

Oh, my God. You know, so it's like, but, you know, we tape my ears out for that and, like, did a little bit of a nose job. and, you know, put some stuff, I don't know. What's that? Put some stuff. Yeah, you were talking about doing Tony Hinchcliffe, I think, and then you just continue to roll,

and then you just continued to roll, and then you decide whether or not you were going to say it, which I respect. We all love Tony. No, Tony's the best. Tony, I'll give him credit. I pitched it to him. I go, Tony, all these fans are told me I should do you on Kill Tony. And he goes, absolutely.

And then he goes, just don't, right before the show, he goes, just don't make me look like a fucking asshole. Of course. And I'm wearing the same vest as him. Bro, Woody Harrelson was there that night that killed Tony. And Woody, and I walk up, and Woody's just like, and I walk up, I go, Woody fucking Harrison. I go, oh, my God. And he's like, holy shit, man.

He goes, yo. And Woody, I think Woody was enjoying himself, you know? I took a hit of whatever Woody had at the end of the night and forgot math for an hour. It was, it was wild, dude. But she's just so specific and kind of a perfectionist. And I think when you're doing any sort of character or stuff like that, for me, it's, you know, it's all commitment and it's like looking having it look that good because even pat was like yo can you just wrap up a ball cap for today and i was like man it like having it looks so good

uh adds a lot and for me when i look in the mirror and see that i feel like i'm you know maybe a different person it it helps me uh jump into that more there was a gal and our show here in india in june we did the marat theater and this gal comes up to the front i'm taking pictures post show and she goes my mom thinks you're really dr phil and so i was like i got to talk to this talking psycho. So I walk up and I go, how you doing, sweetheart? And she goes, I've been watching you for the last 40 years. I love you. I go, I've been watching you two on your ring cam.

I go, I'm surprised you got that tampon out, mausel top. And she was like, what? I go, we'll be right back. And then, yeah, dude, it was. Unbelievable. That's awesome. And she was just, I took a picture. I signed a book for, but so that stuff matters. It just makes it's more fun too, man. I mean, you know,

but she's a gangster. Jet Aspen, that was her name. You saying, shout to Jen, multiple award winning. Obviously, an incredible talent. You're saying we'll be right back. Is that what is the... We'll be right back. I mean, I got a lot of catchphrases, Pat. I've got don't make my mustache fall off. I've got, uh, if you think you can, uh, you can. There's two sides to a pancake. I didn't come 90% of the way to get 10% of the information. You know, I'm looking across at Connor right now and he looks like a guy who wipes his butt after he pees, but, but the point

is everyone's got something going on. You know, we're talking about the dolphins. Oh and two, right? That's a big deal. And look, if you're a Miami fan, I know, look, look, Miami's not just sunshine and butt plugs. It's also the home of Shaquille O'Neill and Gloria Estefan. Okay, shout out. It's also where Ray Finkel and Lois Einhorn became one, you know. It's a place where Dan Marino and Flipper once had an orgy with Tiger Wood. It's a place where everything's happening, Pat.

But if I'm a Dolphins fan and I'm O&2, I go, you know, life sucks right now, you know. But guess who it sucks more for? There's a guy who's recently divorced in his dad's basement. He's 0 for 2 with women getting back on the train. and he's playing Xbox Live eating a chicken pock pie and feeling bad for himself. So at the end of the day, Pat, you got to stop drop and roll, only do drugs of fun people and shave your head, your back, your pussy, and your crack. We'll be right back.

Jeez. Good for you. What a run, dude. Can I get a Gatorade Zero? Oh, shit. Ask and you shall receive. And catch, good catch. That was good catch.

I came out there like a missile. Two years in high school, man. And then I quit to play Danny Zucco and Greece. What's up? Oh, nice. Did you really? Yeah, that's my story, dude. How was it?

I thought I was going to be. the first Jew offensive lineman and just didn't pan out, man. I was going to start varsity my sophomore year. The coach was like, dude, our offensive line was a senior, got injured, I think you're starting. And then I was like, man, I got a chance to play Danny Zucco in this play.

The plays were a big deal growing up as a kid. We take field trips to go see him at Shortcrest. And so now I can maybe be a league because the director was like, look, I don't want to tell you you're going to get Danny, but it's between you and this Filipino kid named Danny Park. And, you know, he might go with you.

And so, you know, You know, typecasting. And so I quit football, and I had to tell my coach, I tried to do it jokingly. I was like, I'm not going to be able to memorize the playbook this year because I've got to memorize the lyrics to grease lightning. And he was just like, get the fuck out of my office. And then he came to the Sunday matinee with his kids and I mean, you know, got a leather jacket and makeup. And he was like, I was pretty good. Yeah, you crush it.

Seems like it all worked out pretty well. It worked out okay. But, I mean, there was a moment where I was like, I think I'm going to, I mean, Hoops was my sport. Obviously, ripping the soups hat, which we'll be back in a couple of years. But, you know, when the summer. When the Sonics left, it was a gut punch, but it gave the fans more, more love and passion towards the Mariners who were killing it right now. Shout to Big Dumpur who just tied Mickey Mantle for the most home runs for a switch hitter. Big Dumpur is sweet guy, great guy to drink with, great guy to hang, a great, I mean, just the most chill.

It's always wild to me. I mean, you're the same, athletes that ripped it up that are just so chill, dude. Cal, I'm like thinking he's this, and I was telling the boys at the sweet last night, the Mariners let me go down and roast. them during spring training and then suit up. And the jokes they posted were, you know, jokes like Julio, look at his, you know, look at his teeth. They're so white. Like it looks like, I said, I'm from Seattle.

I know this place like the back of my hand. The only place I get lost is in Julio's eyes. That's the only joke they posted. But the other jokes I did where I go, look at Julio's teeth. I go, they're so white. I go, I don't know what's more white. Julio or his teammates. Look at this clubhouse.

Where are you guys on January 6th? And then I don't post that? And then I go, I go, Cal's got 50,000 followers on Instagram, 60,000 followers, and only fans. And then, but there was a moment where I was taking BP off Dan Wilson, our manager. And my buddy, Albert's down there shooting content. And there's a moment where I hit one decently, just made some good batting cage contact. Good one.

You know, when you get into the cage sometimes, and more often than not, we're like, all right, 60s, 60 miles per hour, maybe, maybe softball. I had a long night last night, you know? And you get in there, maybe it's 70, 80, and I just hit one right off. off the sweet spot into like deep outfield and I'm running the bases and I get back and I'd use Cal's bat. I'd gone up to Cal right before and was like, can I use your bat? And he's like, yeah, go for it. And so I get that shot and I go up to him after I go, dude, I put a little extra juju in this for you. If you have a wild season this year, it's because of this moment right here. And Cal takes the bat and goes like this. And then he was like, he's like, dude, this is

it. Let this be the moment that if I have a crazy year that it's because of that you using my back. And I turn over to see Albert with the camera and he's over in the corner on his phone. and I go, the fuck are you here for me? What are you here for? This is what we were freaking out of this week yesterday. That's what we were freaking out about. We're like,

you got to tell this right now. I would be so mad. Who's cameraman? Albert? I mean, he's shooting the doctor Phil Doc from our whole tour and he does a great show. No way.

Yeah, he said it didn't matter. He was like, it doesn't matter. I mean, it's just like one little piece of content. Ah, historic here, Mickey Mantle. Yeah. But he might hit 60? Might hit 70.

There's two weeks left. So the Seahawks are your team, though? I'm diehard, dude. I mean, I used to take the bus down to the kingdom to watch, you know, Rick Meyer, you know, Chris Warren. I mean, yeah, dude, Holmgram came in, that changed the game, Hasselback, Sean Alexander. I mean, it's so, and then I went to SC 0-1 to 05, so during the Trojan War years when it was Pete, Reggie Bush, Mike Williams, you know, Dwayne Garrett, you know, Linerd, obviously. And it was Lindel, it was, he doesn't know that. Not to out, Lindel, yeah, yeah, yeah.

After he retired. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But he, it was, I mean, it was Kobe Shack Lakers in L.A. But SD football was king, dude. Everyone had a jersey of every player. And it was been in. So when Pete went to Seattle, I was fired up, which is why it was sad when he left for a bit. Because it was like, oh, I've been with this guy for 17 years, more or less.

But it's awesome, dude. Yeah, you guys kicked him out. You kicked them out. I mean, yeah. You kicked them up. That was me. It was, I sent one Facebook message to Jody Allen, and she responded. And she said, yeah, it's...

Come on it out. But they didn't kind of kick him out, though. Yeah. It was, I mean, it would have been cool to let him, I guess, finish one more. Those things are so complicated. I think it's really... Tough. You know, and it seemed like I watched Pete, I think, on Mike Rob and Beast Mode's podcast, and he said something about that, you know, philosophies were just different towards the end.

And he wanted it to go one way and knew it was kind of the beginning of the end anyway. And so they just kind of, you know, cut it short sooner than later. But Mikey McDonald is crushing it. This is his first full year, really, like, where he feels like it's his team. And I was at camp. They let me call the Chiefs Hawks preseason game. And I don't think it all happened again. I pitched a lot of catchphrases like Jake Bobo had two touchdowns.

And on the second one, I go, somebody check my watch. It's touchdown time. And Steve Rayble was like, can you just stop talking? And then Tori Horton and then got a touchdown. And I was like, I go, I go, someone open back out the kitchen. We're serving touchdown salad. I might have been on an edible, but it was a good time. How was everybody's response to it? Pretty good.

Overwhelmingly positive. Overwhelming. Possible, yeah. They sent me a contract right after that. But we look good. And Mike said, he's like, dude, the squad is so, he said no egos. That's what really stood out to me. He goes, everyone is just on the same page.

And, you know, he got some, we got, you know, some high-paid guys. But, like, Leonard Williams and Lawrence are such good, I guess, mentors and leaders. And the young guys are swagger-filled, but not cocky. right there's such a balance between cocky and confident um and i think sam is a beast and i think you know mark sanchez and i used to have this short-lived uh podcast we did it with all the smoke guys did it uh it was called fourth and forever and we would have on comics and athletes and you know we interviewed miles teller before top gun and dischaun watson before the massages and and we had jason kelsey and oh yeah i remember yeah and it was uh and it was awesome and uh and so i got to know sam

then right before he got drafted and he uh he's just so dialed in man and he's just so dialed in man And he's just matured, I guess, is the word I'd use, but he's also just, like, ready to, you know, he's finally the guy, right? He's got, like, three years to be the forefront of a team, so. You go into Pittsburgh, break some hearts. Oh, yeah. I mean, that's a huge wing. Seattle's always kind of one of those teams that don't get talked about enough, especially in the national media. We love that.

Yeah, obviously, you've had some great moments with him. Who would be, we talk about Mount Rushmore's a lot back in the think thing. Who would be your Seattle Seahawks, Mount Rushmore? Oh, man, you know, I got to throw Joey Galloway in there, just right up top. Of course. Just because when I started, you know, I think that was probably around between 10 and 14 when you, like, kind of find your sports fandom, I think, in any city, right? I remember, I mean, the first sports moment I had, and I'll get right back to that was my mom took me to a Mariners game. Shout out to Puddin.

A single mom did it for a while, then married George. Shout out to George. Shout to Puddin and George. Shout to Puddin, though. Puddin's the goat. You want to talk about Tom Brady's seven Super Bowl rings. my mom had five jobs while she had my sister and I she was, and then married George

and then George was like, do you want to, you know, stop working so much, what do you want to do? She's like, I always want to be an actor. I was living vicariously through Adams. So then she did like seven, you know, community theater productions of the vagina monologues, which was fucking weird to watch her being that. But she crushed it and then she went,

she stopped and then they called her and she came back out of retirement and did it again. She was like the Brett Farr of a vagina monologues, right? She just couldn't stop talking about her fucking vagina. And shout out, mom. And but so. Chow Puddin. I don't think I know what you're referring to there.

It's a play, the vagina monologues. It's a play, yeah. What's the last play you've been to? Probably Hamilton. Let's go. Yeah, I've been there a couple times. Yeah. Booker Mormon.

Book of Mormon. Seen that a couple of times. Classic. What else? There's a couple I went to in New York. Oh, the J. Sud one. The one where he was Robert Williams. Dead Poet Society.

Dead Poet Society. Yep. I went to live. Off Broadway. Jay Sud played. Wow. Yeah, I'm cultured, dude. Let's go.

I'm cultured. There's like 200 people in there maybe. Oh yeah. It was like in a roundabout. He was up in the crowd at one point. Yeah. Imagine being in a 200 seat theater and your mom's like, it won't stop.

And you're like, you made my lunches. You got to stop talking. Puttin was so good. She was so good. She was so good in there. Funny. She was great. She knew the time.

She had Adam's time. Actually, Adams got pudding stuff. Bro, 1,000. Once you see your parents as people and not parents, you see what you get from them. And my mom, super quick, super funny. I mean, detail-oriented. I mean, she's 76, but everyone feels like she's like 50.

She came to a Hawks game and met one of Schneider, John Schneider's buddies who was hitting on her, and he thought she was like 50. And she's just a little spunky, she got a lot of pizzazz for a little spunky Jew from Oklahoma. And, but anyway, so Mount Rushmore. Is that normal? Just follow up. What's that?

I don't know. Spunky Jew from Oklahoma? Yep. Obama's got a lot of Jews Seattle's got a lot of Jews Germany not so much Let's see it where else Why Sports team? Not all

Sure I was talking about Yeah but we're But no we're live But so it's Oh so my mom took me to a marriage game And I go mom I want to stay after And get some autographs as you do

You're a kid you're like I want to meet the players Jay Buehner walks out right Waves to the fans Wade Boggs comes out We're playing the Red Sox. We're talking Mo Vaughn. We're talking Alan Trammell. We're talking Movon, family.

We're talking Wade Boggs. And I see Mr. Boggs come out. And I go, Mr. Boggs, right? Somebody, I guess it told me, call them Mr. and then their name. Mr. Boggs. I go, he's time of baseball. You know, and young fat Adam, you know, just my tits are shaking out of my shirt, right? And he goes, follow me, kid.

He grabs my ball and goes, follow me. And so I follow him. I'd say about 200 feet onto the team bus. I'm now walking onto the team bus. where there's Roger Clemens, Mo Vaughn, guys are cracking beers, just walking down this Greyhound bus and walking all the way down.

And no one's really looking up at me. I remember Roger Clemens did kind of look up and kind of look at me being like, Joe Biden. And then, you know, I don't believe in the vaccine, or whatever he said. And then I walk right past and I sit down and Wade Box has a ball and he goes,

what's your name, kid? And I go, Adam. And he goes, I wrote Allen. And then he hands me the ball back. You already written it. Anyway, but so Mount Rushmore, Joey Galloway. I say beast mode for

Wade Boggs, maybe. I mean, shout out to Wade just for being, you know, it's so, when you see players, you know, stiff arm a child for the, for the graph, it drives me nuts. Well, it's not the kid normally getting a stiff arm. It's all the autograph hounds around them. Well, that is like, yeah, I don't mind if you're.

Scumbag behavior. I guess those guys end up intercepting some of the, what about the Phillies, did you guys cover that a lot? Was that? Which one? I don't think we talked, I don't know if we talked about up here,

the Philly lady who, who stole the ball. Went back. Oh, yeah. Jeez. Wild? Yeah. I mean, now, I do want to play devil's advocate.

What do we think about the dad leaving his base and running over to a section that's not your section? I think it's fair game. I think it's fair game too. I'm just trying to, you know, play both sides. But because I think finders keepers at the end of the day. Also, it's every man or woman for himself. A ball's coming towards you. I mean, dude, I've been to games where I saw a ball.

Dude, Edgar Martinez is in a fly ball. It went off the guy's head and somebody else got it. And I was like, dude. That's the way it works. That was not your day to be outside. You got to get a hand up. You got to get a hand up. You got to bring a glove.

They'll tell you to bring a glove. The worst one was at tennis during the U.S. Open. One of the tennis players was signing autographs and, you know, handing stuff out. And, like, he's signing autographs. He sees a kid. He takes his hat off to hand of the kid as he's signing. Old guy comes in, grabs hat. He's out of there.

Some CEO or something. Yeah, yeah. Bingo. He found that guy. They found him. And he got fired. Yeah, dude, CEO's having a rough year, huh? Dear Coldplay, thank you so much for taking the heat off the Epstein.

I mean, he was so pumped, dude. It was Epstein nonstop. Dude, you know what I love about the Coldplay CEO, the guy that went to the concert and... Oh, yeah, we know. We know. Bro, like, he apologized, but then he blamed Coldplay and his apology. He was like, he was like, dear... I'll tell you what, I think they got some... They might have something there.

But, bro, that guy was like, first fall, I fucked up. All right, I'm a bad dad. I'm a bad husband. but I'm also a huge cold play fan and what you guys did was not cool that was a cold play man I mean too blaming cold play I was telling my buddy I go blaming cold play for your

affair like outing you is like shitting your pants in traffic and then calling the gap and be like you said your pants were holding my boo-boo what's going on you're like it's on you man you got to take some accountability so I'm going Marshawn I'm going maybe Cole play maybe Coldplay

maybe Wade Gallo way Box Joey Galloway Marcion I mean, dude, Hasselback was... Russell Wilson. Good call, AJ. You know, can I be honest? I love Russ. A lot of good memories. The same way, like... Uh-oh. Hasselback over Russ. No, no. I'm just saying, this is a sidebar.

Loved Russ and for the memories. I think the way things shook out at the end. Bad news bears, dude. I will say this. I got to roast the Steelers and shout out to Cam Hayward. Shout out to the Steelers for setting that up. And I get out there. And I thought it was going to be just the rookies for, like, their talent show. They were like, hey, will you roast and host the... rookie talent show that they do you know ends up being the whole team Tomlin's in there

fucking Russ and Fields are right up front I'm like oh shit and I had a lot of jokes and the opening joke was about Russ but I wasn't going to do it because I didn't think he's going to be there so now he's up front and I go guys so pumped to be here at Russ I see you right up front man I'm a Seattle boy

so thanks for the memories and man I'm so glad you're getting a fresh start in Pittsburgh man because you got they did you dirty in Denver man I haven't seen someone get fucked that hard on tape unless it was at Diddy's house man and this was right after the Diddy thing And, dude, they all laughed.

And Rush just went like this and took his hand and looked up. And I go, Russ is laughing. We're fine. Yeah, thank God. Yeah, thank God. He knew you, by the way, I assume. Yeah, yeah, yeah, from Seattle. Oh, great.

We're having this guy. Yeah, he's about fun. I don't think he was pumped. Yeah, he hasn't responded to my life. He had a good game yesterday. He ripped it up here. That needs Roos. Almost 500 yards.

Yeah, career high. I was telling Connor, I'd go, he might still have the best deep ball in football. I mean, it's like he put that shit on the money. It was on last night. On the money. And how did it end, though? Yeah, when he needed to complete one, he threw that nice deep ball right,

just right to the middle of the field. And that's what you remember, right? A can of corn. Yeah, dude. Yeah, it sucks that Russ had such a good game. You think, yeah. Boom. Great. It's such a great game.

He did. And then. I mean, just the worst interception of all time. I mean. Yeah. I don't know what the beginning of the end for him was. Maybe the subway commercials. Yes.

I don't know. The Danger Witch. But Subway is so, the Danger Witch. Those are so tough. Even when Charles Bark was like, you got the 10. The 10-inch cookie. Subway's just got to stop, dude.

You know, I know you're trying to, like, make up for Jared Fogel. That was a long time ago. Hey, that was here in Indiana. Oh, it was. He was getting out soon, too, yeah. There was helicopters. He put on top of there. AJ loves the story.

AJ, you get released soon. I don't know, Pat. You don't want to said you were in a VIP section with it, but he does get released. That was when he was just Subway, Fatso, normal looking guy. This is what I love about the Foggle shit is there's guys out there that definitely, like, went on. the subway diet and like probably pre-fogel you know and so like i'm sure when that happened they were like get guys at barbecues being like you know uh david why don't you tell

uh frank i you lost weight oh it's not important it's just hard discipline and hard work he's like no he's eating subway all day and they're like oh you're a focal guy you're like oh i did it before you don't be labeled a focal guy so i'm going joy galloway i'm going marchion and you got to throw hassle back up there because he took us to a bowl and um and you know the the refs uh took control that one but you say you hate russ okay he took you to a good good enough russ won you a bowl brother to a one russ won you a bowl i'm talking about hasaback russ isn't on the uh the the rush more for me see that's that's what we're talking and that's because of the interception russ i'm i swear that is why if the seahawks go back to back

no it's strictly because that would end i think i would have definitely i've heard a lot of things i've heard man i i've heard a lot of things from players, from coaches, from my stepdad George. I've heard a lot of things. Putin, Dirtay. Dirtay's in. Shout out. My wife, my wife, Amanda, shout out to my wife, Amanda.

Cardinals fan. She thinks the Cardinals are going to the bowl this year. Nobody's perfect. She's not Jewish, but she is circumcised. But she is a great, she's a great gal. I love my wife. Amanda, I love you. But I think that interception should not have happened.

I think Russ had every, I think he could have just called an audible, baby. You hear that call. Oh, so you want Russ to call out of that play? I think you call out of that a thousand times every time. But I think you want to be the hero. You want to be the hero, dude. And I think, you know, it's so funny I was telling Connor I go. Because, you know, anytime I meet a Pat's fan, that day is one of the, you know, I went to the bull in MetLife where the Hawks, you know, took care of Denver, where nobody picked us, you know.

And after that snap went over Peyton's head, and he was like, Papa Jones, you know. And then, and Chad's a great guy. guy, by the way. Is that Peyton? That was Peyton, yeah. I don't do a Peyton Manning, but I do do a Jason Satham. Here's Jason Satham finding out that he got bumped from the Pat McAfee show, ready? Hey. And so I'm sitting there, and so

I'm sitting there watching this snap go over Peyton's head, and everyone goes nuts, and I'm like, there's a lot of Hawks fans here, right? And so cut to the next year, I'm like, I'm going to fly up to Seattle and party in the streets. I flew my pops up, with all my best buds from college, all their buddies were in about 50

people in like one of these community rooms in their condo and Jermaine Kirst makes that wild circus catch you're thinking like David Tyree this is going to happen again to the Pats like down to the wire and then Marshawn runs in and I remember he gets stopped and I just look over my dad and I go ah he goes what I feel like we needed to get it on that one and he goes what the fuck does that mean and then literally we look up and boom and then nobody said anything I had friends there I didn't see him in five years nobody said anything to anybody everybody just left it was like it was like the end of Cool Runnings. Remember when like, you know, they

lost and then they carried their thing down and then once they carried this sled down, John Canney was like, let's go get them to Chipotle. I don't think you. No, I haven't seen that movie. But it, but it's... You've definitely seen the movie. I've seen Cool Runnings. I was first in line when it came out. You know what I also saw? I saw Mrs. Doubtfire when it came out.

Which was advertised as a like Robin Williams comedy. Like, hello, it's a run by fruit. And you're like, dude, Williams at its best. Opening scenes, Sally Fields like, get the fuck out of my house. You had a llama on my dining room table. You shut up, bed.

Had to battle through that. Bro. My folks had gotten divorced, maybe a month prior. I'm sitting there. That's like taking somebody to see Blackhawk down when they just got back from Iraq. I mean, I'm like, dude, I just saw the same fight a week ago. So I'm triggered. I'm crying.

My buddy's like, you crying? I'm like, it's so funny. But shout out to that movie. Rob Williams is like, you know, that's, you want to talk about goats to me. So we're going beast mode. We're going. Matt Hasselback. Matt Hasselback.

Definitely dog. Joey Galloway. Man, you know, you're going to love this one. Cam Chancellor, dude. Hell yeah. Cam Chancellor was a game. Sherman, Earl Thomas, dude. I mean, you can go down the list.

Browner. You could put the Legion of Boom in there as one of the... You could, but I think... You don't even want to do that. I was giving you an out. But you're like, not... No, no. Well, I mean, yeah.

But that's obvious, dude. They obviously were... That was... They'll never be... a group like that ever. The way that it got put together with Wagner and KJ and they'm all being so young and so on the same page and it was insane to watch. It was like

the same way people talk about in Seattle if you got to go see Griffey play live or getting to see Jordan. Like every city I think has a version of that guy. That's what it was like going to Hawks game. And you got to see Danny Dimes yesterday. In Indy. In the lot house. Yeah. Dude, you guys going, I mean when you were saying, man, we just haven't been

hasn't been excitement like this in a hot minute and feeling that in the stadium and when what's your field goal kicker's name? Spencer Schrader. Spencer Schrader. Did I go to middle school with that? Spencer Schrader? Yeah, might have been. Let's go. Yeah, I think he's much younger than you

but let's go. There's a chance. Yeah, he when he shanked the first one, I mean, it was the wind got taken out. It was like everyone found out there on the Epstein list at the same time. It was like, you know what I'm saying? Everyone collectively was like, no! I'm saying. I'm I thought I wasn't there, you know?

Yeah, here we go. Just came up short. And right. And right. Yeah, it was bad ball early. But then the one down the middle, I mean. Yeah, you can't cheat. They're cheating.

Can I be honest? When you said to me at one point, you go, if we lose this game, you never welcome back. Not only in the suite, you said in the city. And then we believed it. And even Sally was like, I second that. And I was like, I thought we were friends. And then I sang my heart out for your birthday. And then do it.

And then blue is doing the pelvic thrust from new kids on the block. I mean, but by the way, you guys just have all the right things click into that stadium. Right now. Right now. Whoa, whoa, whoa. Forever. Now, this is 2 and 0 at home, right? So, like, I don't know how you are on the road. You know, time will tell.

Oh, we're going to be even better. Find out next week. Times is a road to talk tight. I'll tell you this, though. I mean, confidence in any avenue, right? It's like huge. Like, you get a good, like, you know, obviously. Like, once, you know, like coming off these five

sold-out shows at Helium, which was shout out to everybody that came to the shows. Yo, your boy, Derek came last night. Derek on Mike. Add a boy, Murf. Can he confirmed. He came to the show, which is big time. It was awesome. But, like, you know, you're riding that high into my shows for next week or whatever.

but he was just like, nah, man, I'm here to support, man, do your thing. But I was like, you want to come on stage? We can fuck around. But maybe in Seattle. But yeah, huge tour up through the fall, and then I'm announcing a big theater tour,

my first theater tour for January through April. You know, every year you want to stack the chips, get better. And once you start selling out shows in the clubs, then, you know, people in your world go, I think it's time for theaters, baby. So then, yeah. Congratulations. That's awesome.

Who knows? Who knows? I'll fight you out, Spirit. When's that? It's Tuesday, December 6th. Spirit is the Denny's of the sky. But they are... Well, moon's over my hammy is.

You're right. I take it back. Yeah, please. Dude, you remember the great... You know what? There's always like a VH1, where are they now? Like, you know, the kids from the Goonies or like, you know, the kids from BB Mac or whatever. Nobody guys.

But they... But the Denny's gals. Remember the Denny's gals? were like, um, it's $2.99 or you're out of your mind? Remember them? Oh, yeah. Couldn't fucking believe you could get breakfast for three bucks.

And they were only in their 60s. Those were the days. They were like your mom's age where they're like, three bucks for bacon and eggs. Pull the blow. Denny's was awesome. And those ladies were right. They were crazy. They lived at Denny's.

They were like, you know what's the best part about Denny's in L.A. on Halloween? You'll see like Batman and Jack Sparrow at like 2 a.m. just slam it down some pancakes. Yeah, you're never going to see that in spirit so you need to maybe have a little bit more respect whatever you say you're right spirit hey they just they just like fix their seatbelt i think they got seatbelts now so yeah got a pay for them shout up the spirit yeah all right uh we sent out a tweet earlier you're going to be great for this about you know we want to hear from the NFL fans from around the league we want to hear your

thoughts we want you to showcase why this is called overreaction Monday all you have to do is put out all your emotions into one tweet and make sure you use the hashtag I don't want to overreact but you see that you'll catch the beats there at the end the butt is all of us together tie went through all of the tweets that were sent in picked out his favorites

it became a number one trend on X which we're very thankful for how active it has become but these become must read Ty how are they this week I think much better this week still a little optimism for teams last week so people were overreacting but not really selling out there are some

pissed off people this morning. All right, let's dive into them. I don't think this one's pissed off. Hashtag, I don't want to overreact, but... Says Connor, everyone and anyone can see it. Some will deny it. Some will laugh at it, but it's too obvious to avoid. The Pats are going to win a Super Bowl with Vrable in May. Not this year.

Maybe. But at some point, those two will hoist a Lombardi. Pats are back. Jack Conman. Not an overreaction. No, no, no. All you're really looking for is a great head coach and a great quarterback, and the Patriots got both of them. I mean, there's other spots.

to get better at? Whatever. I don't care. This year we're not going to win the Super Bowl because next year we might. And then the year after and then all a sudden, 15 years later, the Pats have been the one, two, or three seed with Mike Vrabble at the helm. I feel very good about it. How do we feel about the Patriots and maybe being back at him?

You know, it's good for football and the Pats are doing one. Oh, I don't want to hear it. That is so interesting. You would say something like that. That is so interesting. I feel, I feel bad. I feel bad. I'm over the Super Bowl loss. Times are changing. but you know you're dealing with a lot with Belichick you know like it's he's getting a lot of flack

you know his girls on the sidelines ordering postmates and getting in his ear and just it's a lot so I feel like I we don't know if she's ordering postmates she's she's doing she's doing she's doing down there she's it's in his ear what is she doing what is she doing down there they were saying she was asking him for money for the concession stand that's not true she runs all the social and digital it ain't postmates or concession that was online no she got no I think she was She was like, is it T-H-E-I-R-E? She was like, I don't know, especially on X. She is a social media person, but she, Air Jordan. Yeah.

H-E-I-R-Jordan. Yeah. What? Beast. I think she's, she has stayed in the pocket. Oh, yeah. Hasn't she? You don't think so?

Yeah, no, I agree. I was bummed. They actually tried to, she tried to trademark all of his taglines from the Patriots, but then did parentheses Bill's version, like Taylor Swift, which is kind of cool. And so she tried to do that. And so now I don't like North Carolina anymore. Wow. What?

What? I thought we liked North Carolina. No, no, no. Go Duke. Where my blue devils? Stand up, Blue Devils. All right, let's go to the next overreaction. It's from Tone Diggs.

Live in Hammer. Dahn. Hashtag I don't want to overreact. But. Chearing for a team is the dumbest thing a human can do. Lowe had it right. Let's go NFL. Processing.

men's new era graphite NFL training camp 970 adjustable hat with just NFL on it okay let's go to hammer died Todd love it you're an NFL fan now just like dumpy yeah that's Rob Lowe star of 9-11 lone star oh yeah I remember the hat with him sitting in you yeah I was just thinking I was like I was so I don't I don't have a division one football team to root for so I just have fun on Saturdays and I enjoy football and then Sundays my life is fucking miserable so I was like you You know what, I don't want my life to be miserable Sundays anymore. I'm just going to be an NFL fan. So that's kind of, I ordered that today.

I feel really good about it. NFL. NFL, NFL, NFL, NFL. Gumpy, had a little passion behind that chant there. Yeah, it's dark days, you know. Tua just takes the stand, and it's just, it's terrible. It's can't get any worse. Takes the stand.

Was he on trial? No, when he takes the stand and does the post-game interviews, I can't take it anymore. Talking of tour. Yeah, we like when Tua's talking because we learn a little bit about real tour. Show me the money. I felt like I knew the guy. Show me the money. After getting a deal. Did you see that video? No.

It's a good video. Some would argue that was also the downfall of Russ, Mr. It was. It was not a good look. And then he was, I don't know, a lot of the selfie. Here's the thing with the problem with social media. It's great because now we know exactly you know, where Kardashians get their smoothies from.

It's great to know, like, oh, dude, like, you know, you know, the kid from home improvement kind of DUI, like we get to see. AJ's related to him. It's AJ's cousin. Yes. We're related to Zachary Ty Bryant? You're related to Zachary Ty Bryant? I'm not. My wife is quasi.

What about JTT? What about Johnson and Taylor Thomas? No, not JTT. Just Z to the B as he would call me. Zachary Ty, Brian. He did come to our wedding back in the day. Let's go. I used to play the clarinet.

But it, so we, but we, dude, that's awesome, though. Wait, he came to your wedding. Was it dope? Was everyone freaking out? He's having a good time driving around. Oh, it's amazing, you came in me. I was freaking out. We went out with him out in L.A. like 15, 18 years ago.

Yeah, he re-ran that place. He rips it up. J.T.T. went to S.C. while I was there. Or no, he just was at a frat party across the street. I was in the Jew frat, A.E. Pye. And it was Sigma Chi across the street. And I met a year-old next home. I'd never seen a famous person.

I ran to Larry King while I was high at the Grove. I seen a movie. I think it was like Toy Story 2 or something and he's there with a kid and I walk up to him and we're at the automated snack machine and I go holy shit I go Larry King I go big fan man

by the way in my head I was like I gotta say something no you don't just let him be Larry's better off not having a stony encounter from some fucking so I was like I go okay and he was like hey how are you and I was like good man I go

how you doing and then he was like I'm fine I'm with my nephew do you mind and I go not at all I just got interviewed by Larry King and he was like huh and I was like I'm gonna get some liquorish peace and then went back to the theater but um j t t

great interaction there I felt good would you say immediately afterwards you said I nailed that yeah oh yeah I felt like and Larry King saying what on it I was in the pocket Larry King probably I mean he didn't care enough to talk about it on the show but he

RIP but he but he JTT was right next to me and I was like same thing and I was just like I wanted a moment so I look over and I was like by the way not a fan of talking to the urinal where do we all stand on that

I'm with you what do you mean where do we all stand we're all we're all in the same thing We're all in the same... Small talk. I got, like, I was once in the airport, and the guy looks over, he goes, is it me?

Is my dick just smaller? Is his urinal to make it? Is it a urinal too big? And I was like, hey, your penis is fine. Like, I don't know what this is, like, you know, he just almost sucked me into that conversation. So I look over at JTT. He did suck you.

And I look over at JTT. And I go, he baited bubble. Yeah, in the bathroom right now. I go, what's up, JTT? And he was like, hey, just so thrown off. And he was like, what's up, man? And I was like, yeah, yeah. And I was like, yeah.

And I go, Uh-oh-oh-oh. Yeah. I just fucking Tim Allen to it, bro. Oh, he did was just go, like, you're saying it's that, but it's like, dude.

You think you're nailed it, though. You sound like you had a pretty good little grunt. Nailed it, dude. I just was like, dude, if I ever see one of the Tim Taylor kids, I'm going to, I'm going to do my Tim Taylor. Don't know a choice.

Home Brum, it's a great show. Great show. Underrated. Tua has not been great. Tua has not been great. Yeah, for the Miami Dolphins. And is it because he's shaking? Is it, is he playing timid?

Is he playing scared? I don't know. Gumpy, what do you think it is, fan of the dolphins? My thing is he had his best year when he was, like, bigger. He was jacked the year he had in 2020. Yeah, when he got fat and he was rolling. Jiu-Jitsu, worked out all off-season, didn't get hurt. And then we decide we're going to scrap that and just change everything.

And now we're shit. Got paid. He played well yesterday. That's fine. He also missed Tyreek on the exact same ball. He threw the interception on when they played. played here. Like he misses those chances when he could have taken that game yesterday and when won that game. Yeah, Gump doesn't like that two had changed trainers. He just goes to

his trainer. He just moved on. Did he happen? He doesn't like that. Did he really? He changed the training regimen. And look, I told you guys, Tone, you're coming over to the dark side. Gump, I saw your tweet. You sound like you're coming up to the dark side. Don't let these organizations hold you hosses for five, six months. You're going to think, look, Packers fan, I get it. you. Patriots, a lot of success, a lot of parades, I get it. Stillers, six titles I get it. 25 years, no, pick another team. Get another. Maybe go NFC. Maybe go to different division. Don't let them hold you hostage. I mean, you're, we sit there, four, seven, 10 hours watching football. You just got to be shitty all week, all season long, because your

team stinks. Organizates, top down. I mean, come on, man. Yeah, you're still enjoy the other game. You're supposed to be waiting all day till Sunday now. Not hating all. All day. Exactly. You go Sunday night. If your team is ass, you're saying, don't be scared to snoop around, maybe pick up another team for a couple weeks, maybe forever.

Why not? Or just say you're a fan of the players. Use that gimmick. That gimmick sucks. Don't do that. I love Justin Hurt. I root for the charge. I like Jaylor Hurts.

I rule for the year. Use that gimmee. Oh, shut up. How about this? If you like Jail Lert, truth for the Eagles. If you like, who's the other player you said? Herbert. Whatever.

Have fun. Go Chargers. Don't do the player shit. that sucks. That's the generation that doesn't go outside. You're not a real fan. That's the same generation. No team fandom, you're saying. This is fantasy football. Bang. Boom. If you want to be. Exactly. Draft of fantasy team. What percentage of fantasy football players you think are that way

that are just rooting for the players for the coin? I think this has gone through a cycle. I think there was a time where it was just players. I think everybody still likes players, but I think being a team fan has become more of an in-thing. I think personally. They made it easier to join teams too. they have the commercials with all the celebrities that are reping their team

like I forget there's Twitch guys that were in it that I can't think of their name. Ninja? Yeah, maybe Ninja like And that other guy with a Tee. Tim the Tatman, yeah, like people who... A lot of T's three T's, three T's.

Yeah, right. Four T's actually. You can't remember the Twitch guys' names? That's weird. So nobody fucking knows who we are either. I didn't claim two. Sound like you kind of were, oh, you were just shitting on all of Twitch here. Is that what that was?

Well, no, I've been on this for a long time. Their names are so weird. It's always like Bubble McBubblestein or fucking something like that, you know. They do have cool crafty names over there, Twitch. Is Twitch still going, or is Bill? Is Twitch still a thing? I'm not sure farting around, yeah. Is it? Yeah. Kitts still a thing?

Is Kai on Twitch? I think so. What's Guy on? I have no way. I think I have on Twitter. What's speed on? Everything. Everything. Everything. He's definitely on Dog.

Kick, I thought. What's that, Bill? Bill. Geez, Bill, let's go. Twitch is still a thing, although they are desperately, desperately losing money. Okay, who's on Twitch? Where's Kai and I Show Speed

and that entire Streamer University group? What are they on right now? So I think they bounce around. Like, Kyle go back and forth. I think his last one was on YouTube, but he will do stuff on Twitch. I think kick is another big one that Gumpy just said.

That's where, like, Aiden Ross and a bunch of those guys are. It's kind of just like a free-for-all right now on where people are. They'll get paid for, like, three-month runs at a time and do stuff on those platforms. All right. Well, good luck to everybody for three months at a time. Hey, sometimes you've got to live life three months at a time. That's right.

Fast and furious. Exactly. Okay, what's the next ovary? Jeez. It sucks that he got hurt. Turf toe. It's also like the, when the injuries, like, just don't sound cool and sexy. What a bummer.

Tennis elbow. Tennis elbow. He had that stupid wrist. Premature, a jacket. There's just so many things that take you out and you just can't... I don't think...

No one's set out for that, no? Oh, maybe. I don't know what's going on in peace. We don't know. About 30 years. The next overreaction comes from a Giants fan, Bruce Brown. Hashtack, I don't want to overreacts.

But... Oh, Bruce, be happy. At least it was an entertaining close game where the offense scored points. No, I won't be happy. James Hudson embarrassed the program. You can't touch Dak Prescott without a rough

in the passer. The kickoff goes to the 35 and Aubrey is probably good from there. Giants football is hell. See you all on Sunday night football. But hey, Russ was slinging it. Sure sounds like a lot of condescending remarks from Bruce Brown. Bruce, it wasn't entertaining loss, was it not?

Oh, you're muted. God fucking damn it. The Giants football team, man. You and I can't do anything right. I'm so sick of fucking losing and just showing up every Sunday. And we got James hudson just doing the most embarrassing

is just slapping a guy upside the head fucking slamming him into the ground after a play right afterwards he should have been ejected probably for that two personal fouls get the hell out of here he's false start and every other fucking play I'm just so sick of losing I'm sick of losing to the Cowboys and Brandon

Aubrey who's just like a golden boy good from fucking 75 it's a nightmare congrats to Russ throwing the ball he can keep the seat warm for another week or two also Scataboo! Scataboo is running wild He's fucking rolling through people. He's awesome, awesome to watch.

But God damn it, I just want to win some fucking game. You're not inspired at all by that performance? It was entertaining. Yeah, right? Yeah, I'll take the moral victory of, you know, our head coach has no control. There's no discipline at all. We're fighting on the sideline.

But, hey, Russ turned back the clock for a Sunday. We can bank on that every weekend. Maybe we'll win a couple, 39 to 37. That'd be nice. Oh, wait. What the hell happened to the defense? That's not the end up to him? Yeah, actually, we're going to be the best D-line in football.

It is just one of those things where the stink of sucking for so long is just so a part of our DNA now where it's 1310. We got a half-time lead. And you just know we're going to lose the game somehow. You know, it took a little while. We really strung it out. Went to overtime. But, yeah, just losing football team doing losing football team shit.

That was the second penalty there, I think, on the same drive there. They were on a third and 20. So let's back that up. Another five, at least. I'm a full. start and then later in the drive he would get a late hit basically unnecessary roughness where he would drive his forearm through the back of a guy's head after the ball had been released and then they get all the way down and then he would fall start just run all the way into the defenses yeah

here's the unsportsmanlike conduct after a play yeah that was after two penalties already that was his third penalty and then a few plays later he would uh you know decide to get off on the ball just a little bit too quick tough sunday for james yeah i i i I think everybody would say. There he is. That's his fourth penalty in the same drive. Four penalties, same drive. Six-40 in the first.

Okay. And then also gave up a sack, I do believe. And it inevitably led to Dayball saying, okay, how much more are we doing? Get him out. Get him out. And then afterwards, there will be a little bit of a differing of opinion. Maybe he was just upset for how bad it all went. Maybe some people said, that can't happen in professional football.

Whatever was, a lot of emotions. So whenever, and James closed it up. Bringing him back down. So we're, it's okay. you got more penalties than anybody we've ever seen in one drive for most amount of yards and also the time in which you got him absolutely despicable. I mean, all of it's bad. But next week, we're going to be better.

He got paid, I believe, some money. Bruce, what is the deal that you guys have for him? Yeah, it's two years, $12 million. He was us shoring up our O line. It's like, okay, Andrew Thomas coming back from Liz Frank. At least we've got James Hudson to kind of, you know, handle things. Obviously not. He's fired up.

He's fired up. I love the passion. I love the passion, but hey, just between the lines, maybe not when the ref is, like, right in front of you. Do you shove the guy's head into the fucking ground after like a 40-yard pass play? First and goal. Sorry, Bruce. Not overreaction. A big week next week.

A very sane, normal response. You know those four teams that started 0 and 2 to end up going to the Super Bowl? Guess who one of them was? Eli Manning. But New York Football Giants. Was that Tom Cough? That was Tommy C. Shut out.

Discipline. Feel the same? The New York Giants are certainly a team that we can look forward to for bringing entertainment through that guy. That's right. Yesterday, he was loud in that sweet. Oh, boy. Russ hits at Deepall, fourth quarter, very late.

You know, we're talking yelling. Because it was quiet in the stadium, too. Yeah, because what was going on to Colts game was nothing at the time. Maybe offense was on the field, like who knows, maybe even having a moment of silence. It might have been before the game started. Who knows what was happening? He's screaming, losing his mind in the entirety. So it's been fun to watch you.

We shout out the Giants for being the type of football that they are. Let's go to the next overreaction. Josh Dorsey and Adam, you're a part of this. This is at J underscore Dorsey 3. Follow with the program. We appreciate him. Hashtag I don't want to overreact. But who's the colds punter?

Great question. I'm asking us, we only need a goddamn punter. First time in a Super Bowl era team hasn't putted within the first two games. Danny Dimes is an alien. This is a brotherhood, Colts Super Bowl. This one, winner. And Adam, you were there. You felt it.

Hot, dude. Hot vibes. Cool treats. we treat you right, Derry Queen. It was a blizzard. It was a blizzard of greatness. It was a white out. Oh, bro.

It was also, dude, there's something about, like, being around an environment in the squad like that where you know, like, the fans won it so bad, dude. So, like, the energy is just palpable and infectious. But, yeah, dude, that, that kick was incredible. I think if you guys go 3 and 0, dude, I mean, I might just have to fly back for every home game. Come on. I mean, I don't want to. I don't know if you're sitting with us, but you can definitely.

Second team. I'm Joe. You're welcome. Tyree said I could stand outside of his box. Do they always do the red Don dropping the T-shirts with the umbrellas with me? Yeah, Sam tries to win that every week.

Yeah, so it always goes the same section. Those things are falling to the same section basically every single time. Fucked up. Well, the only reason why I know that is because Sam has been desperately trying to win one since we got there, like pushing people out of the way.

Every once in a while, wind gusts will bring one kind of closer to us. Real excitement. and then that thing just goes right back to the same section. But there's good stuff out there. The helmet, do you see the helmet one? Do you see the helmet mix? They've added a couple things.

Last week, they sent all the helmets off the camera. I like that. And then they said, we're just joking. Nice. Brought it back, opened it back up. So it gave somebody a chance to catch up halfway through. That's good. How do you feel about the no punting?

So Rigoberto had a punt in the first game. He did it for like 60-some yards. Penalty roughing, first down. We went on a score. scored every single drive in that game and then the first three. The goal of the game is to have no punts. I mean, that is very much the goal. So I think I as a punter and Rigoberto definitely is a punter for the Colts. I don't know about how everybody would feel, but we love it. Punters love having a good time. We like winning. If we don't go to do shit, let's keep winning

this whole thing. I kicked off and obviously you hold as well. So if we were winning, I still had a little bit to do. Rigo does not kick off. Spencer Schrader needs to figure out his kickoffs. Maybe Rigo should kick off actually. It might be something to think about. out there. But yeah, no punts good. There's no punter being like, man, I need two, three punts. Kind of get it. I wish I could get four or five punts in this entire thing. Joe Judge. I don't know if anybody's doing that. Now, Joe Judd, yeah, trying to get the team, get the punter into the game early. Certainly a decision. Certainly a decision. I mean, I never punted. I was a guy in Madden. If it was fourth and 29, I was like,

we're going for it. Yeah, you got to play. Every time. Yeah, you got to play. Every time. Yeah, you got to play. Who puns in Madden? Raise your hands. Loosers. Losers. Bruce puns. Bruce. Jesus. Jesus. Hotel Rio, defensive mastermind. Wow, Mr. Unlimited back there, huh? Let's go to another overreaction, shall we? This is from Joe Malavia. Paizan here really loves football.

Hashtag I don't want to overreact, but... As a Bengals fan, the season is over. I would seriously look into trading Joe Burrow this offseason. He just can't stay on the field. Jesus. Top two QB when he's healthy, but... That win is doing a lot of heavy lifting. Blow it up and try again with Arch in 2026.

Okay, still one arch. still one arch That's what I heard AJ Is that what Ohio saying We got Arch Manning Billboards around town I have not seen any of those yet But you never know

What about Kirk Cousinses Is he a possibility? 1,000% Right It's got to be They were thinking about him Being traded before the season started Michael Pennock's clearly

Going to be the guy for them You've been watching this QB show On Netflix With Kirk? Yeah Oh yeah brother I mean dude he's like Just Joan foaming at the mouth

Just like I'm going to just be a good good guy and just, you know, help Mike win. But you know, like, when the cameras go, he's like, all right, thanks so much for being here, guys. Oh, did you get the coupons for the Panera broccoli cheddar soup? Okay. Thank you so much, man. No, you get really appreciate you guys being here. I said, and again, you can sleep over next time if you want. Okay, thank you. Door closes. Four! I mean, that guy is, I think, just needs to play, you know? He needs to have the keys of the Hyundai Tucson, you know? I don't think, he does have a

Hyundai Tucson and he, him and his boys can build a great fire. Yeah. And he has that little, you know, he has that little, He has that brain thing he puts on his head. Oh, yeah, dude. He's one of one, I do believe. And why not Cincinnati? He's the best option right now. Why not, right?

Also, I think a guy like... Two thousand and twenty-five, I think Browning over here, Kirk. Really? Personally. Jake Browning's got... He gets slinging now. He does. We like Jake Browning.

I'm a fan. He's got great Moxie, too. Jake Browning can talk. Young stud. From what I've seen, Jake Browning's got Moxy. He does. He's got game. Yeah.

Could be a college football coach if he had to be. Wow. Guy can play. He can. He can. Oh, I know. I'm a believer. Okay, we'll see if Cincinnati Bengals can somehow get lucky one time.

Do you think that's going to happen? I don't know. Typically when, you know, your star players want money and you say to them like, well, at a certain point, why don't you just shut your fucking mouth and be happy that we're even off paying money? Yeah, but they end up giving a little bit more money. They kind of. We'll see if that's the reality because the Pittsburgh Steelers who came Hayward more money, but they did it. It was $3 million in the center.

There's a little bit more. He got his hand on a ball interception. Obviously, he can't marry. He was doing his thing. Let's go to another overreaction, shall we? This is from Aaron Clinton at, hi. My name is Ninja.

Hashtag I don't want to react. But? Chiefs is not longer than Chiefs. It's been a good run, boys. But the other line is worse than last year somehow. Might go winless and get the number one overall pick. Hashtag. See you at the draft.

Whoa. Chiefs fans going through it right now. They really are, dude. I'm going to the steak. restaurant on Wednesday for Pat and Trav 1587 Prime. I mean, I was fired up, but, you know, I mean, I still am fired up. I'm going to eat everything. I'm going to, you know, it's going to be great. But, I mean, doesn't that affect, like, you're not winning, your own two?

Yeah, steakhouse, probably not going to have good vibes. Yeah, exactly. Not a lot of good vibes, we're over two. My Beard sign. Don't, do you feel bad if you're doing, no, probably not, right? That's a big deal. They'll celebrate and just get back to it. You got to shake it off, right? Obviously, Patrick and Travis.

Oh, they own that city. Dude, I was once there with Pat, and he was doing my podcast back in the day, and we're rolling around, and we're in the gas station. He's just saying hi, taking pics with everybody. I mean, it's like mayor of the, I mean, football, I was doing this little comedy club, and he just came through, sat in the back of the big track suit by himself, and the staff at this comedy club could not believe. It was like they were meeting Jesus and Bieber together.

Yeah, just go football player. We believe in one here, but we can't believe you're both here, you know? And they were freaking out, dude. And he was just like mayor of the people taking pictures. One guy, though, did who was filming my shows. I'm sure you guys have experienced this where you just meet somebody you're trying to do something nice

and then he just takes advantage and he goes the guy just was filming my shows and then he goes Travis what's up man and then just goes on Instagram live and goes I'm here with my main man Travis Gilesk and I was like dude

sounds like Albert a little bit yeah it was me but I didn't I felt comfy yeah let's go their next overreaction Chiefs fans might be a little bit upset Andrew hashtag I don't want to overreact

but Dane Campbell is the deliverer foretold the warrior of destiny in the prophesied prophesied prophesied he spelled it wrong but you get it you sounded it out correct prophesied champion the lions look great in week two and it's because of mcdc build the statue sign him for a hundred years and promote them the senior manager at apple beast apple beast commercial this year is ass for mcdc we thought that was going to be a trend for how the entire lion season was going to be we thought it was the same old lions. We thought Detroit was back to sucking. You're all the way back,

Foxy. Is Andrew on the same page as you? Yeah, I love everything what Andrew said there. I mean, MCDC, I said it last year. Give him a lifetime contract. Give Jared Gough a lifetime contract because the Lions were absolutely irrelevant until those guys came in here. So I love what Andrew's doing. And let's be honest, last week was probably the most hell Detroit's Benin with the Lions for so long because before those guys, expectations were so low. So no one cared. And then after that, they just won every single year and continue to get better. Last week, they finally regressed. So Detroit was in hell. The coaching came back, won a game, we're back.

Let's stay in the NFC North. We actually have some breaking news. I believe this is what Schefter was referring to as obviously a part of his bad news that was coming. Vikings quarterback J.J. McCarthy is expected to be sidelined two to four weeks with a high ankle sprint with McCarthy out. Carson Wentz is now in line to start. Carson Wentz football is back. J.J. McCarthy, we hope you get healthy.

Obviously, it wasn't the greatest game for the Minnesota Vikings offense last night. J.J. McCarthy in that fourth quarter, the first game showcased absolute excellence. Him getting hurt again obviously sucks for the development of JJ and the entire J.J. McCarthy era. But now one ankle sprain opens the door for potential two ankle sprains. Two sprains, Carson Wentz, back on a field. We saw him here in the Indianapolis Colts. when he's playing great ball, it is electrifying. When he's making some decisions that cost your entire city, team, and everything,

the game, it's not as fun. He's been through it, though, maybe a little bit more mature, maybe in the Kevin O'Connell offense, he has a chance. But if two sprains gets going out there, his Vikings team is going to go off without a hitch. NFC North needs to be scared as shit about Carson Wentz taking over. Yeah, we'll see. I mean, I'm excited to see if he can just listen to what Kevin O'Connell says

and not do all the other bullshit, all the extracurricular bullshit that he's kind of been known for doing the last several years where it's like, hey, you know, we just need to pick up three yards for a first down and kind of get this drive moving. You don't have to throw it 150 yards down field, which Wentz tends to do, but I love this. I mean, everyone, you know, JJ was the prince who was promised. We were kind of already starting that. Let's see if Carl Wentz can kind of turn his career around. I mean, we might be talking, you know, we said, hey, same thing with Mack Jones and Brock Purdy. Are we looking at a situation where Carson Wentz? potentially is the QB of the future for the Minnesota Vikings? I think there's a chance. There's also breaking news coming out about Jaden Daniels. He had a minor knee sprain that they got. I'm texting it in right now.

Okay. Underwent an MRI following the loss to the Packers was diagnosed with a sprained knee. Not a long-term injury, but Daniel status this week versus the Raiders isn't down. Holy shit. Wow. So that's what Schefter said he was referring to. Jalen Johnson, Jaden, Daniels, J.J. McCarthy now.

Three injuries reported here on this overreaction Monday. Seemingly, people losing time throughout the season. That sucks. Did not know that about Jaden? When was it? Do we know when it was? I mean, he was under pressure all night. But during the game, you know, he wasn't...

I mean, it looked not... Yeah, he wasn't as elusive. He wasn't able to get away from guys, but it never looked like he was really hurt. There was one tackle, I remember. That was, like, just one of those awkward ones where his leg went into the ground and it just kind of like moved a little bit

while it was at Lambo. I remember them showing the replay. Fourth quarter? Yeah, yeah, in the fourth quarter but he didn't come out. He just kept playing. He actually waved someone off after the play in the fourth quarter. This is always the tough thing too with having a quarterback that can run, right? Where you just like at some point somebody's going to land on your foot or your leg or you're going to

slide the wrong way or you're going to see a whole, you're still an aggressive competitor so you want to get a few more yards and extend the play but that might be the play that gets Kirk Cousins called in. On that note, though, whenever Lamar Jackson was up when he was a free agent, he's representing himself. There's a lot going on. A lot of people are like, it's going to be impossible to deal. They were trying to spread bad things because he didn't have an agent, okay?

So the word was, he's going to get hurt, he's going to get hurt, can't pay a guy that plays football like that. He's going to get hurt. He's going to get hurt. Some guys have an incredible ability to just avoid the big collisions. Now, granted, in the pocket, anybody can get hurt in the pocket. anybody can get hurt in the pocket Joe Burrow got hurt in the pocket seems like Jaden maybe got hurt in the pocket so it's like

Brock Purdy got hurt in the pocket so like those in the pocket injuries if you're not a durable person I think can show up or you can get unlucky and kind of get twisted up in there but the guys that run I think and Josh Allen's looking for contact

but if they make it to the NFL and they can run they also have an ability to avoid hits which is a skill like I watch TY Hilton just one of the FIU Hall of Fame by the way Congratulations, T.Y. I watched T.Y. Hilton, undersized wide receiver, but very fast could get open and understood ball.

So, like, he was a great asset. Right. But, like, his first couple games, he'd get the ball, and then he would go down before taking a hit. Colts fans were not happy. They're like, hey, let's go. And then all of a sudden, like, week 14, week 15, he's still playing. And it's because he's not taking the dumb hits that you don't have to take. So, like, running quarterbacks just can't take the big hits.

You have to know how to not do it. But if you're in the pocket and you get ripped up that you're, that's an ass. That was the borough thing you were talking about earlier, like where he wanted to get hit early. Yeah. No you don't, bro. We need you not getting hit. Man, Jaden Daniel.

You're going to take the hits regardless of what type of quarterback you are, like you're in there. And that's why like the quarterbacks that have like these Iron Man streaks like Brett far have playing as many games, you know, Peyton, Tom, you know, he had the ACL year. But most of these guys like, we always say your best ability is availability. Like if you have that same quarterback trotting out, like that's a huge deal just to have that. So when you have these quarterbacks that, you know, miss three games here, miss four games here,

miss six here, I mean, there is something for, you know, playing through injuries, and then obviously sometimes you just can't play through certain shit, but yeah, it's tough. Tees and P's, that's a lot of injuries coming out on an overreaction Monday. Go ahead. I was just going to say we're talking about taking hits and playing through anything, but you're tight-end Warren is like, maybe my new favorite play.

It's getting to see, you know how it is too. It's like, you're a fan of a band, then you see him live, and you're like, dude, like, you know, boys to mend it's so much better live, you know, but like, but you see Warren playing and you're like, this guy wants to be the best player in football. So they could be. So strong. Yeah.

Nobody was taking him down. I mean, yeah. Maybe not the fastest dude, but fast enough? Fast enough. Fast enough. So that's literally was the knock. He was the second drafted tight end. Colston Loveland out of Michigan was the first drafted tight end.

He was the second one. And the knock was he wasn't fast enough. And it's like, we're throwing him screens. So I think he's just, I think he's fast enough. Yeah, I think Colson Lovelin has two catches. I think he's doing just fine. Danny Dimes loves him. So leaning into the contact and just

Every time. Like, look, it just, it also feels like it's not even affecting them. That's what's crazy. When you see a guy that takes a hit and other guys are bouncing off them. It's only a second game. A couple A. A.B. Select start moves there. That is.

That is a couple A.B. Selects start. All right. Let's go to the next overreaction. We'll be in the NFC North. For the Chicago Bears. We went through a lot of them. Here we go. Yeah, it is. This is from Jay Bear.

at J Bear underscore 224. Hashtack, I don't want to overreact. But the Bears stink. They could have Jesus Christ, the quarterback, and God is the head coach, and they would still win a max of six games and go, oh, and six in the division. They got their asses beat this weekend. Yeah. And if you talk about God and Jesus Christ, I mean, Caleb was like this generation,

and Ben Johnson was literally, so obviously we're not comparing as religious fixtures, but when you talk about the two most prominent people for those roles, they got them right now in the very important. And they just got their asses kicked. Now, how long will it take to transition into everybody working to maximum maximization? What do you think, AJ? You think they ever get there? I mean, there's no guarantee that they ever get there.

I mean, I think if you give them enough time, yeah, most likely they will figure it out with Ben Johnson and the offense and what they want. But, like, that could be a couple years. We don't know. We have no clue when it could happen. All right. Let's go to the next overreaction. What are you shaking her head about it?

Well, no, I was just going to say, I mean, I love it. We talked about the Bears winning the Super Bowl all year, week two, you know, and they're fucking done. You know, they want to fire Ben Johnson. Also, I thought it was pretty funny. Caleb Johnson, if you were, or what's his name? Caleb Williams on draft night when they drafted Torrey Taylor. He texted him and said, like, don't worry about it because we ain't going to be punting.

Bears have punted the most times in the NFL since he sent that text. So it's kind of, you know, Freudian little, you know. But it's just, I mean, if you're in the NFC, like Foxy can attest to this. Vikings fans can attest to this. Like, if you're a fan of a team in the NFC North, you knew this was going to happen. You knew this was going to happen. Are they the most doomed team?

That's what I don't... I don't... I don't know if they're going to think of that. Because, like, Connor said this last week, and he was kind of joking, but, like, we are on the collision course for a Ben Johnson case of just massive blow-up on the sidelines, and then that becomes a big thing.

Is Tyson Baygent going to start, like, it's coming. They wouldn't fire him mid-season, right? No, no. No, no. They fired the other guy. This would be a Russell Wilson, Sean Payton's situation, we think. Oh, wow. We think Ben Johnson, because he took that job.

Now, obviously, did he take that job? Because Caleb's there and had a lot of hope for Caleb, certainly. But if he had multiple options, which everybody says he did, and he's like the most highly sell out of your head coach in the last decade or two, he would definitely say, hey, if this doesn't work, I have the ability to move in a different direction. You would assume. You would assume. Just because Sean Peyton and Russell Wilson, Sean Payton's a similar situation.

A lot of places wanted him. He was in Arizona for a while. He got paid a lot. A lot of place. He definitely went in there too and said, hey, if this doesn't work with Russ, I'm able to move on. The ownership told him yes. So I don't know if that's what it is with Chicago, but it feels like Ben Johnson would have that ability. Like they would ride with Ben much more than they would ride with Caleb is what I feel.

But we don't know if that's the case. That's the sense I also get you from the interview. Because we don't know if Ben was strictly hired to make Caleb good. Let me ask you this. I don't think, like you said, Sean Payton went to ownership instead of it doesn't work. I can move on. I don't think he even wanted it to work personally. I think that was good from the get-go.

So do you think Ben Johnson is like that with Caleb Or is he really, do you think, like, well, no, let's try to And then... Interesting. I think he was, because he could have, he was the battle of ball for like three years. And it's his first head coaching, John. Yeah, he decided, all right. Peyton was coming over being like...

I'm going to go coach this guy and we get it right. So I think he went there, but yeah, we're not in the same league where you're giving a guy three or four years to figure it out, like, they're on a quick timeline. I think he might have just made a mistake, honestly. How do you think, Ben? I think there's a chance. Like, the Washington, there's the story of the Washington going up there

before they drafted Jayden Daniels when they had the number two pick and he basically said like, no, I'm not going to coach for Washington and then they turned the plane around. Like that's the alleged story with Adam Peters and, you know, Washington and Washington turns out and ends up

being good and then, you know, Ben Johnson was the bell of the ball last year and then this year but like he got interviewed by the pass but he wasn't the pass number one. Whereas you know, a year ago he might have been probably the Pat's number one especially with Drake May and the North Carolina connection so I don't know.

I just hope it ends in a Caleb Ben Johnson fucking wrestling on the sideline, fourth quarter, 20 seconds left down by 50. Caleb's an incredible athlete, but Ben's got a lot of grit. I don't know how that wrestling match goes. I don't know either. And also, how was the manny? Was the manny sharp this week? Can he scratch with those nails?

You never know. Because that might help Caleb when it ends up being a restaurant. Oh, yes. You're talking about Angel Reese's nail texture. You're sorry, short for Manny. Excuse me, dull. I thought we were talking. I thought we were talking Duke head coach.

Yeah, Mandy Diaz. Yeah, that's what I thought. All right, let's move on to the next overreaction, shall we? This is from E.J. at Robo Nobbins. Almost pudding. Hashtex, I don't want to overreact, but the Dallas Cowboys need to stop all this winning garbage and loose. That was a hard-fought game with the Giants. Let's make the most of those draft picks and have a 3-14 season.

Yikes. We're battling it out against the Giants. Here's the fuck out of here. Let us get the number one over. overall pick. We are asked this year is what this Dallas Cowboys fan says. I don't think they feel that way now. I think the moving on from Micah, maybe Dallas Cowboys fans felt a little bit more. I don't think the locker room or the team really feel it that much. And obviously that's a huge win. I mean, that's a gigantic win, especially in the moment. You've got to battle

some drama. Brandon Aubrey, this guy's unflappable, absolutely unstoppable. It's like, I think the Cowboys think they're good. Do you see that video postgame? I mean, Jerry was down there being like, watch my Netflix special. And then, And then, did he say that. He did say that. And so, don't quote me, though. But they were all fired up for Shottie. They were, like, rallying around.

He was getting emotional. So I think you're exactly right. I don't think there's any sign of, like, you know, this is just a hard fought win. I think it's like, let's build on this shit. It's good vibes, too. Like, we talk about the Micah contract with them not working out. Like, now everyone's getting paid. They paid a lineman yesterday right before the game started.

So you're talking about, like, team morale, like, Duran Blanger just got paid. With Tyler Smith, you said, yeah, he just got paid. Signed clowny after the game. Signed clowny after the game. They could probably now, if they really wanted to, depending on how the season goes, like hang on to Pickens if they want to do a Pickens and CD. They have options now, at least.

What if the Cowboys are good, AJ? What if they are on them? Yeah, why not? I think they're legit. I think Dak is awesome. I think Dak is still underrated what he's able to do. One thousand. Kenny Clark got a sack yesterday as well,

so they're trading working out. And Mike is working out for Green Bay. This could be a win, win, win, win. All right, last overreaction here from Clayton at Clayton at E88. Hashtag I don't want to overreact. The Eagles are still the best team in the league. But? The old coordinator should have been thrown out of the damn plane on the way back to Philly.

Sure, a lot of people from Philly saying that? Yeah, there are. There are quite a few. But this is, I mean, this is Philly. You know, this is what you expect last year. I think they were like 8 and 1. And every week it was like, Siriani's a fucking dip shit. When we lose, it's going to be this moron's fault.

and they win the Super Bowl. So I don't think there's, you know, cause for concern yet. Yeah, we win, but let's make sure this offensive coordinator doesn't land on his feet. Yeah. That's awesome. Good for Philadelphia. Remember tonight, double header. Double header tonight.

Buccaneers at Texans, Chargers at Raiders. We have our picks already? Yep. I remember. AJ has the Buccaneers. I have the Texans. D. Butt has the Texans. J. and D.B.B.T.A. and D.

have the Chargers minus. three and a half. I have the Raiders plus three and a half. Adam Ray, would you like to make a pick? Yeah, dude. I mean, you know, I'm still a Pete guy. I'm going Pete. I'm going Raiders. It's his birthday. Happy birthday, dude. Today? Yeah. Good God. 73?

Four. Oh, shit. Looking good. By the way, the same way Marshawn got like a Skittles campaign, Wrigley's doublement, somebody should have jumped on that train with Pete. Chewing that gum. He's never, gums never

had so much press before. You know what I'm saying? That's good point. Bazooka Joe, something. Yeah, double bubble. Double bubble. Tiger Stripe was that one? Tiger Blood, Tiger Blood. Some of that, yeah, that Tiger Blood certainly had a road.

Watch that dog, by the way. Yeah, I learned a lot. And then we all, um, yeah, fuck it. Yeah, but I think, um, I think Pete's going to get that one. I think Pete's going to get that one. What was the other? Uh, then Hugh, yeah, um, boy, I love me some Baker. I mean, those Hulu commercials are so good.

But I think, yeah, I'm going, I'm going bucks and I'm going Raiders. All right. I think you've made the right decision. for your own. So I think you did good right there. Yeah, but that we're, you know, that's Baker was one of the best commercial guys we had. Yeah. And then it all went to shit. Yep. It's tough, dude. You see some of these guys step in

and they just like, you know, going back to Russ, it's like, you know, just wasn't, didn't really feel. He's back? He's back. He's back. He's back. Oh, I saw the Popeyes one. I've not seen the What's the Popeye's one? He's got a few Popeye's one, right? Let's go. Yeah, he just, he just, the one I saw, he sits there and goes, he's good. And then he eats the Popeye's leg. Huh? Yeah, he was.

It was great. I haven't seen it. I saw it and I was like, hell yeah, Baker. And a Popeye's fucking deal? Good for you, Baker. I was very pumped for him. Popeyes is good. Boston Market will be cool to see come out of the woodwork.

Rest and peace. Brady's got to bring it back. Tom is the man. If there's one thing Tom can do, it's win Super Bowls and bring back franchises. He actually said he's got a big announcement tonight. That could be. If it's bringing back Boston Market, can you imagine?

Give me a whole fucking chicken. And Giselle is like in some, it's how they like reconcile and she's in some, really sexy outfit. And like, I'm trying to eat that chick in me. I don't do her voice. But she, you know, she's like eating it. She's like, I love my potato, you know.

Is that Brazilian? Don't get me careful. I think so. You're trying your best. All right. Wait, I got to say one thing. We were trying to get my boy Johnny Schneider on the phone. Seahawks GM.

He said, I'm sorry. Tell Pat, it's my fault. Good thing. He said, you and I aren't in on communicating on headsets during the games. We fucking suck. But that's going to be in my Mount Rushmore for Seahawks. I'm throwing up Johnny Schneider for building these teams, baby. That's an underrated job.

All the way, Marshawn Lynch, Matt Hasselbeck, Cam Chancellor. That would be four, which is what a Mount Rushmore is. But let's go ahead and toss a fifth. I put Schneider like on top, like, even like the barrel. Maybe he's the back. He's the back of the back. He did just have back surgery. He's on the back of the back.

He's the back, dude. Could probably drop Hasselback and just go. And I'm a Hasselback guy. He's a mass guy. No, that's got a QB on there. Yeah, maybe the QB that, I don't know, probably fucking won a Super Bowl at him. I love me so. Dude, I know it's tough.

Can he, like, can Hasselback be, like, holding a cardboard cutout of Russ? Maybe. Come on, Tom, please come over here. It's been a glorious overreaction Monday. Steve Larges. We can't thank you all enough. A lot of great players over there in Seattle. Mount Rushmore only has four spots.

He's made five. We're winning in the West, by the way. We're winning the West. I know everyone still, like, you know, says Rams and Stafford, but, like, I don't know, Hawks, it's ours to lose, I think. Like you said, no one's talking about his DB. I think that's good. Only team to lose in that division so far.

Mack Jones. We are? Yeah. Matt Jones. All right. You guys want to talk about my parents' divorce rights? Jesus Christ. I thought I was having a good time.

You guys actually only seen it fucking sucks right now. Yeah. Sorry, we already talked about your parents' divorce. If we could hit anything else. Putting I love you. Yeah. Mr. Dalfire, what a tough scene. Be your friend, tell a friend something nice if I change your life.

We're in this thing together. Adam, keep killing it, brother. I love you guys. Thank you. If you get a chance to see him, obviously go watch him. His vibes are fucking immaculate. That shows are a blast man. Team on me, you got anything you said?

Well, you know what? Life gets tough. So wake up with the sun, go to bed with the moon, okay? And dig deep. And if you find yourself on the sidewalk and a stranger wants to give you a high five, give him a chest bump and a hug. And maybe a little extra finger, maybe pet his hair. Maybe, you know, ask him what his pen number is, where he lives, you know, what his blood type is, buy him a Coke or a coffee.

And at the end of the day, we're all the same. So live it up, suck it up, spark one up, and burn one down. We'll be right back. Team on three, one, two, three. Bye-bye.
