Week seven, the weather web.

We start in Cleveland with the battle of Ohio and Long Island iced tea, Agins was trying to drum up the score as Odell Beckham got knocked down and didn't get up again. And as someone who went to Brown University, I would like to wish my sincerest condolences to LBJ and wish him a quick and speedy recovery. Donovan, here's the church. Here's the steeple. Look inside and see all the peoples. Jones found God in the form of a Baker Mayfield pass to finish off a thrilling victory in Cincinnati.

And the Cleveland Browns are five and two oh Browns thirty seven Bengals thirty four. In Nashville, where I want to ride my bicycle, I want to ride my Mike Tomlin had the game ready to go in the pre game down his guys. He don't get to coach until you put in the pedal work. AJ Brown Eyed Girl was a skip and a jump and making love in the green grass behind the stadium to the tune of one hundred fifty three yards and a score.

It looked like Juju Smith, Simon and Schuster close the book on the Titans comeback by Steven Landsburg. Gostkowski had a super bad kick to tie the game and we'll be standing with all his friends in the postgame locker room challenge. Twenty seven the he guards twenty four. Some spread in Washington, where we start with a verbal meme. Antonio Banderas Gibson realizing he's going against the Cowboys defense, sits back in his seat. Yes, the Cowboys dreadful season is now the KD Lamb Chop song.

This is the season that never ends. Yeah, we got a really shit defense. Jerry hired Mike McCarthy, even though he really sucks and we'll never win a Super Bowl again just because this is the season that never ends way down yonder on the bench. Tanuki. Dalton had the starting job for a Scaramucci the Washington football team. Twenty five, the Cowboys glory wrap up.

Ninety five to the Meadowlands, where this is your captain speaking without comment hyperdrive as the Jets scored. Not one, not two, not three, not four, but ten points in a losing effort not too far from Tony Soprano's old stomping grounds, Tyler big mouth Billy Bass said, Take me to the river flop around. Like I've said, Donald, if you're asking where have all the cowboys gone, Paula Cole Beasley is on the bells and Baltimore fans are saying, I don't want to wait for our lives to be over before the bells win.

Super Bowl feels like the New York Football Jets and Atlanta, where Raheem Zack Morris wishes he could pause time with one on four to go in the fourth. But his running back, Todd Squali, couldn't help but get that not only to get run over by Matt Stafford with Zeroes on the clock. TJ McCollum Hokanson step back to freedom and blast it off and Arthur Blank Space and Matt Make America Great Again Walked out after a tough sixty minutes declaring himself the Victor Lyons twenty three thousand twenty two in L.A. where I can't feel my face when I Menchu is looking forward to moving on from a bad weekend after Sunday's game, Justin Herbert went out for a play and Easton stick, huh?

I don't even have anything for that age. That's just a baseball bat. There might be a little dust in the bottle. Heartburn is aging nicely, Jerilyn. Saturday night's all right. Forgotten said sorry. Call Alten Johnson put the up is back as the Chargers got their second one of the season chargers starting on the Jaguars.

Forty nine up to mile high where once you pump Drew can't lock as Byron don't at me but sour cream and onion is the best flavor of Pringle ran a kick back for a score. Jerry Judy Blume is a good young adult, but Patrick Mahomes is already reading defenses at a genius level. Seeing my good friend Kenny read on the sidelines reminded me to be the first to wish all you young kids out there a happy Halloween. Full size candy bars at Uncle Swamp's House for the kids.

Do did this for the adults. You know, the ones that give you the nice pop they got. They got the codeine, began to do a little bit of codeine, a little bit of cold, and they give you a nice pop lions'. Twenty three thousand twenty two.

Standing on the corner of Jameis Winston down in no such a sacrifice to see, it's an old friend, my Lord, with a heart like a sword goes by the name of the teddy.

B, come on, J cook these corners stay. Sure, is Michael Thomas on the hot seat turning in your play, got to say, saves twenty seven point twenty four.

Saints go marching. We finished in Arizona where the Cardinals defense could use a little sparks, more affordable to build a record over a while. And he could he could go, oh, Dick Mechai catches up from behind to get back that touchdown he gave up against Dallas. Tyler, you lock it up. No, you lock it up. Remember the rule number three for the amount of touchdowns he had played like a champion? No excuses. Russell and Flo Wilson said it's hard out here for a simple as a Seahawks ball to the Cardinals in overtime.

Thirty seven to thirty four. Hey, boom, we forgot no one circled the wagons like the Buffalo Bills. All right. Week seven in the books. Sunday Night Football delivered. The Seahawks should play every single Sunday night. It just should happen. It should be a standing occasion because their games make no sense. And we thought it was going to be the DK Metcalf game because DK Metcalf is the fastest human being alive like scary fast. He's not faster than Usain Bolt, but I think he might be.

I thought you you could have just ended after you because he's not the person he is.

Fucking terrifying how fast you see a dude that size run that fast and like first 15 meters at the other 15 yards, the amount of ground that he covered was nuts. He was almost as fast as Daniel Jones. If you look it up, would you actually take the look at the advanced stats? Daniel Jones ran faster than DK. Metcalf tells me. I no longer trust the radar. The nerves and the eyeball test tells me that she is the fastest human being to ever step foot on grass.

That's like the time I met the guy at Wrigley who does the stat cast. And I was like, So what's the deal behind this is like I kind of guess you just make it up.

Yeah, it's like, do you really like.

Yeah, I like I have some numbers, but at the end of the day, like, I'm guessing, yeah, the NFL had to get us talking about the Thursday night game more.

So they just tossed that stat out there that Daniel Jones is like the fastest human being. It's Chris. But you're right, the Seahawks are just insane. They should play at least every week. They should be in primetime, but it should be it's a good Sunday night nightcap.

We basically stumbled. This season was weird as it has been. We've stumbled upon the perfect schedule Thursday night has to feature an NFC East team. Yep, Sunday night has to have the Seahawks. And you have to have two Monday night games in a Tuesday night game. Yes. And then you have your perfect schedule. That is absolutely the best way to do it. It was a credit to the cardinals because that felt like a game.

They were never in a million years going to win. Like I'm talking from the beginning when the Seahawks just walked down the field and we're up seven. Nothing. We all looked because we all took the Cardinals. Right. There's no chance the Cardinals can win this game. And they just hung around and they hung around Kyler Murray. I don't know what it is like. He can he there's there's not many quarterbacks right now who can go from. Has this guy ever played football to.

Oh, my God, he's the greatest ever as quickly as Kyla Murray. Yeah, no.

Every play he is he is definitely in danger of either fumbling the ball and getting hit after just like standing in the back of the pocket for ten seconds or scrambling for like 20 yards or hitting a guy on like a long pass for forty, that that that he made some incredible passes.

But that throw when the Seahawks through an interception and then the next throw he threw on one of the worst passes all weekend. Right. Like it was. And I'm not counting college football, too. It was that bad. Yeah, but that's kind of like he's I he's a young quarterback figuring it out. And I would I definitely think that he's going to be around for a very long time. But there are times you like what is going on right now.

A little fun stat about the game tonight. This is the first ever matchup of two sub six foot quarterbacks who both passed for over two hundred fifty yards. Oh, wow.

So this was actually a huge win for the five nine community over the five, ten communities. Same weekend that the app comes out on the iPhone where everyone can can now just pointed at people and get their height.

I'm actually looking forward to that because that'll just reveal me. There's a big there's conspiracy theories out there that think that I'm like five, five, five, six. Right. So the more I get cameras pointed at me, the more the truth comes out where. Oh yeah, he was only lying by one inches, five feet. Well, and also you you got your listen, I'm wearing the lifts right now.

The Zoom 720. Yeah.

So but yeah it was I have another fun fact. Ready for it.

If the playoffs started right now the Bears would be the one seed that is very fun. Found that up. So you guys haven't apologize. You guys have home field into the Super Bowl. Yes. Not going to apologize for that. Now, we haven't played yet. We still had to play Monday night.

And also there's more than half the season left yet.

We'll just, you know, take it. What's the old saying?

Like, if you don't stop and smell the roses every now and appreciate where you are as you spin, like if you stop and claim not one seed after six, seven weeks, what's the point of watching football, knowing that it's all going to fall apart? You sure you should become like full on Korona? So at this point, an advocate for the season to be shut down. Yes, that way when it does restart, oh, we have to only the playoffs spares of the one season.

I mean, for health.

I might put up a banner. Yeah, I put a banner. If the playoffs started after six weeks or seven weeks, pre Monday night game should be the one seed.

Yeah, but I, I got a verbal meme for you. Yeah. The little guy who pokes his head around the corner whispering. Josh Young for MVP back on now that Russell Wilson threw three touchdowns in a primetime game. Did you did you did you watch?

No, I'm not Jets. We'll get to the bills. Just came in a little bit. I'm just saying. So this game will definitely be a point like a factor for people to look and be like, yeah, I'm not going to vote for Russell Wilson anything. It's probably Aaron Rodgers back on. Right, right.

But still the. Oh, wait, so so the ending, though, we got to talk about this real quick. So.

Well, one, I think I think Russell Wilson, I hate to be the guy who, like when a really good player plays poorly at any point, you're like, wow, he must be injured. But I think he got fucked up on that Vance Joseph Blitz, where he set the house on that third down and just like no one was there to block him. And so the pick to Isaiah Simmons, which was an incredible play by Isaiah Simmons, but Russell Wilson looked a little off in overtime, which great point by Jake.

I do not know why they made it ten minutes. It makes no sense. Like player safety.

Yeah, there's player safety. Five minutes. There's really no point whatsoever. All it does is increase the amount of times which I'm OK with for the record, like I'm OK with having a few of those types of screw things up.

I guess it also increases stupidity because Kliff Kingsbury took a page out of Matt Nagy's playbook who did this last year, this exact same thing on second down when you can get more yards and decided not only could he get more yards, but he could waste more clock and he decided not fuck it. I'm going to kick it on second down like a forty plus yarder with two thirty left.

I get why you do that on third down. That would make a little bit of sense. Sure, you could spike it if the clock.

Yeah. And then he, he is his own kicker because they took too long getting the snap off. Yes. I had to call a time out on him but yeah they ended up ended up working out for the Cardinals. I agree with you that Seahawks are just they need to be featured in primetime.

It's just so much fun.

It's like I would like to see a study done on fan bases and see like which which team actually affects the life span of their fan bases, mostly because I think that probably being a habitual smoker of crack cocaine is healthier for you than being an active Seahawks fan.

I don't know. Browns fans probably are number one, like lowest life expectancy. But, yeah, it's a different life. It's a different shortened life. The Seahawks are like burn out. The Browns fans are just dying, just like slowly sleeping and eating like terrible.

I'm saying not eating terrible food, but like eating terrible football that will just kill you, like from inside out. We'll also aren't you way more pirogies?

I think eating worse food is probably right in Seattle. They get at least a lot of fish sushi. They say healthy. The the Seahawks, like if you just put them on on a Sunday night, like you can guarantee a few different things. It's Russell Wilson throwing a moon ball that you've never seen before. And you're just like, how the fuck did he do this? Some insane catch by Tyler Locker, DK Metcalf, the Seahawks being down and then the Seahawks being able to come back.

And this one was reversed because they were up and they lost the game. But the Seahawks are, I think, the pinnacle team in the NFL right now, where no matter what the situation is, you're like, shit's going to get weird.

Shit is going to get weird. If they're up by ten, it's going to get weird. They're down by ten. Shit's going to get weird. It's it is this. The Seahawks Seattle Seahawks are playing Mario Kart. And if you're in a spot, you're going to get a lightning. And if you're in the first spot, you're going to get hit by a blue show.

And Dick Metcalf got three mushrooms when he was chasing down Budda Baker on the sidelines, right? Yeah, it's crazy shit like that. Shout out to Larry Fitzgerald for his out there. He is like, yeah, well, not only is he out there, but he's playing he's playing the wide receiver. He's in the slot. He's also the side judge who's now in charge of spotting the ball. Yes. At the end of the game, he's doing this for boy, I don't know if you knew that.

Yes. Yes. For the Vikings. Right. When they had that team. Yeah.

He is like he's done this, I think, three weeks in a row where he will run directly over to the side, just like hand them the ball and help them spot it to get like an extra two or three seconds. Smart, very smart guy. Yes.

And it also confuses me because Larry Fitzgerald and DeAndre Hopkins, like we talked about with Madison and and Dalvin Cook. Yeah. When when they catch like a deep ball. Takes me a second back. Who caught that.

Well, yeah, if the guy is like fast then it's DeAndre Hopkins, right. If he's just got a big ass, big ass six catches everything. It's Larry Fitzgerald.

So. So that was Sunday Night Football, which was fantastic. So we're going to recap every game. We'll talk a little baseball, too. We got Dion coming up, packed Monday's show.

And we will start with the Atlanta Falcons, which the Lions beat them. Twenty three. Twenty two. We have joked that the Falcons invent new ways to lose every single week. It is not a joke.

The fact that they lost the game by Todd Gurley, his momentum taking him into the end zone, which was essentially like a reversal of the famous Todd Gurley going down against the Rams versus the Packers a year or two ago. I it's incredible. It is incredible that they lost that way if Todd Gurley just goes down, they win that game, not only if he just went down, if he had went down feet first, yeah, that would be technically giving himself up.

So the way that he felt, he just he realized it a half step too late and just kind of collapsed onto himself and the ball crossed the line at the last second. If he had just gone feet first is from where you start your slide, right. If you give yourself up that way. Yes.

So I have no way to prove this, but I think he did that on purpose because. The Falcons stink, they're not going anywhere. Scoring touchdowns is cool. It looks good for your stats. And the reason why I truly think this I actually said out loud when we were watching this game, I think the Lions were almost trying to let them score the player to the two plays before they were playing very loose defense where they were kind of doing like an old thing where if anyone had actually broken it, they might have let him score.

It's tough to tell the difference between that and normal. Matt, Patricia.

That's true. But I it and maybe maybe I'm way off. Maybe it's simply the fact that the Falcons are the Falcons and they have the lowest situational awareness on a football field of any team ever. Because how how you don't say that to everyone in the huddle beforehand, like, hey, there's a good chance they're going to let us score here, because the only way they can win this game is if they get the ball back. And still he's going full blown through the hole while the lions were just walking away from him.

They were about to, like, pick him up and tackle him. Yeah, it was crazy. So I all it tells me is that Todd Gurley doesn't watch college football. I'm just saying, if he had watched, like, any highlights from Saturday, he would have known go down on that exact same play. They are going to end up well for you. And then then it became a fight to see who could who could make the biggest boneheaded error.

Because after that happened and the the lions go all the way down the field, they score. Danny Amendola has a 15 yard penalty against him for unsportsmanlike conduct. So they had to back to kick up. And that would have been the most lions way ever to win a game. Is losing our tying a game that was connected to you after Todd Gurley just made a Lions type mistake? Yeah. In your favor. Yes. Find out for me, Jake.

Todd Gurley in his I don't know if these are listed, but bonuses for touchdowns.

I was also going to say Florio tweeted Todd Gurley, quote, mad as hell, unquote, about scoring 8D. Yeah, that's smart.

That's hard to fake. Like you're mad. Yeah. Because he's a tax bracket. That's why he's pissed off.

Goddammit, sometimes you're you're so young and, like, dumb. And I don't mean that in a mean way.

Like you believe that like Todd Gurley, Todd Gurley probably walked in the locker room and said, I'm mad as hell.

Yeah, well, Jake believed it because it was from our friend, a journalist. Yeah. Mike Florio.

Not us guys with brains and maybe shit for brains. But we have brains and eyeballs and we have the fans sense.

So the Falcons have also broken math. They broke numbers this year. Yes. They've played out of their seven games. They've lost three games when they had a greater than 90 percent chance of winning it.

No, it's a ninety eight percent, nine ninety eight percent on win probability, which I think win probabilities bullshit.

I agree with that. That's kind of its kind. In the same pile for me right now is like judging Daniel Jones, the speed in the open field. I think they just come up with numbers and that way because it feels like every week there's a team that has a ninety nine percent win probability that ends up losing the game.

Well, in win probability, can't count for a team being so citral is the situational awareness like illiterate.

There's going to be sliding scale for it. Right.

Like the Falcons should never be over.

Ten Falcons should never have a ninety eight percent chance of winning a game. Right. Like it just it shouldn't be entertaining. This is why we're smarter than computers and robots will never beat us for this simple fact.

They actually think that the Falcons have a ninety eight percent chance of winning a game that we know as human beings. That's not true.

Computers don't do stereotypes like they are up by 20 to 50. 50. Yep. Fifty five.

I agree that it should be. Yeah. For the Falcons. There should be a cap on it until you get within a minute. And then in the last minute of the fourth quarter it should go all the way up to twenty five until the last minute. Yes, but never above.

Yes. Them all I'm seeing is a two million dollar signing bonus, but it does say incentives, three point five million. That's going to fund the.

Oh look into that. Yeah. How many, how many touchdowns against the line. Just seven.

Mad as hell. Just mad as hell. Makes me like if Florio had said Todd Gurley was despondent or when like Todd Gurley was emotional in the locker room, I believe it more but mad as hell.

Mad as hell is the fake Esmat that's actually cartoon. Matt, you're like mad as hell. This piano fell on my head.

Yeah, he's got steam coming out of his ears like a like a tea kettle.

Yes. I always heard a the give it to me, Jake. April seven. Twenty twenty. Regarding the incentives, Gurley gets the full five hundred with thirteen TDs or one thousand rushing yards.

OK, I'm telling you man, I'm telling you they're right.

He was caught and was really low and there's really no point for him to not score that touchdown.

And if you're thinking like in the long run the Falcons are going to make the playoffs, it's actually better for the Falcons to get a better draft pick. Yes, they're going to need a Trevor Lawrence or they're going to need a Daniels or they're going to need a tray lance when they move on potentially from Matt Ryan.

So, yeah, I didn't think that he did it on purpose. But you're kind of you're winning me over.

I, I you'll never be able to is a great debate, a fan debate that you'll never be able to prove one way or another. But I just I, I the only reason I thought of it was because of the plays before when it felt like the lions, it was clear what they were going to do. What they're trying to do, how he touchdowns on five out of 13, so he's on pace these days to be there. Interesting.

Yeah, well, tourists are way more suspicious because there was that classic example of him doing the exact opposite thing and being superstitious. Yes. And then he shrinkers. Sean McVay is a good coach. If he did not do this on purpose, he's going to be very confused to see, like, the level of hate and like people going to be pissed off at him online. And he's going to think back to the last time and he's not going to know what the right thing to do is.

He's going to be a very confused boy. Right.

So we need to at least give some credit to the other side. So Matthew Stafford, who I've always been a fan of, because I think he's a good quarterback, that's in a bad situation. Seventy five. Seventy five yards and 64 seconds for the touchdown for the game winning touchdown drive. That was like vintage Stafford. That was a great moment. That was a great like he is a guy. He's the reason, a small list of guys in the fourth quarter with the ball down and like, no, you know, no timeouts.

You can trust him to get the ball down the field. So he needs to get some credit. And remember what I said on Friday, little baby, little baby run lights going on, the little baby run their schedule and just start out of their little itty tiny cutesy Woodsey taking their first steps.

Tiny little baby. They're three and three now.

Would you wouldn't have thought after like week one and, you know, the week to they go up to Green Bay and they go up fourteen. Nothing to get absolutely shit pumped. So again, Colts at Vikings Washington football team at Carolina, at Houston, little bitty tiny little baby. What I said they were going to go I think I said they're going to be five and five going to the Texans. We said that on Thanksgiving. Yes, they were going to be competitive.

They were going to be like on Thanksgiving five and five on Thanksgiving, going play against the Texans. And I mean, look, with the NFC East being so, so terrible and, you know, obviously the NFC West is awesome, but the three and three, you're in it like three and three's not you're not out of this.

It's still very early teams. You're very much in this. So credit to the Lions for four coming back. And Matt. Patricia. He's got to find a new like he's wearing like a poncho thing that is essentially like a baseball.

Well, like they talk about when it rained at that size, like it's crazy. The only thing that can fit on you with a neck hole, that's the appropriate width and girth is something that's going to kind of fall down at an angle to make it look like a poncho you're basically stuck with. You can go with a blanket. You can go with like the five white tees that you can buy in a gas station. And that's it.

I think if you looked underneath his tarp at any given moment, there's like the six foot eight year old summer intern from the ballpark, six foot hundred and fifteen pounds who always gets swallowed up in the target, swallowed up by the TARP.

If you just shook Matt, Patricia, one of those kids would fall out like I'm just here for for credit. I'm just here at this this single a ball team for credit.

Maybe it's me, but as Matt Patricia has he just ditched the pencil entirely? I think so. It wasn't funny when you suck. I haven't seen the pencil recently. I don't know if it's like the mass that he's wearing. Maybe if you put the strap over your ear, it makes it difficult to fit the pencil in there. Yes. I need to know from Matt. Patricia, if you listen to the show where what orifice are you stashing the pencil in?

Yes. Yeah. Where where's the pencil? Probably. Probably in the tarp, I would think. Bellybuttons in the tarp.

Just shake them. Yeah. You get change. Jimmy Hoffa, a pencil.

Yeah, all kinds. The the like a skull. An old skull. Yeah. Like a cat. Maybe a cat skeleton to two buttons.

Some string yarn. Yeah. Oh out there.

A dip bottle without a cap on another t shirt that he forgot to take off like six years ago. That just finally Ward's elasticity it would just all fall out of there.

So. All right, that's lions. Falcons. Just incredible stuff. Falcons, you're just and. Eat the jersey is terrible, like, I don't know, there is that was one of the least visually aesthetic games I've ever watched with the weird color of their turf. The what do you call them? The gray.

What is a gradient the by the Falcons uniform, the greatest gradient red. It looks like their entire bodies were infected like it was it was some sort of like old like frostbite that they had and taking that was gradually oozing at the top. It was a very it was a weird look. And then combined with the with the all grays, the lines all great.

Yeah.

So it was the whole thing was just disgusting.

Just to discuss it looked like if you simulated a game on Madden like a preseason game or like when you can make your own franchise and you're the Tiburon Sharks.

Yeah. Yeah. You're like a defunct Euroleague team. Yeah. All right. Browns, Bengals. Browns thirty seven. Bengals thirty four. Baker Mayfield was awesome. So he starts over five. Odell Beckham gets hurt.

Now the take is going to I mean, someone's definitely going to use this. Take that. He's better without it. Yeah, I was actually going to say that.

Yeah.

And then he finishes, he goes twenty two of twenty three for his final twenty three passes, two hundred and ninety seven yards, five touchdowns. And the one incompletion was a spike. Right. So he was incredible. It was productive on fire, on fire against the bad Bengals defense. But still like that's if you're a Browns fan, not only five and two, but that's the type of game that you've been waiting to see from Baker for a while now.

We like let him just go out and win a game and be incredible. And Odell being out like it makes it even more impressive.

I don't like that the media has put so much expectation on the Browns that they're making them feel like five and two is a bad place to be. Like they should be better.

No, I think it's the opposite. I think that they've oh, there were expectations coming into this year. Any time that you have Baker playing for the team, since he's like a guy that, you know, he's in the media a lot.

He's on like all the Hulu commercials and progressive commercials. People are always talking about Baker being like he should be the guy that's, you know, taking you guys to the playoffs five and to fucking celebrate if you're overweight. You guys had you guys had beer fridges that were stored around your town for the moment that you won a Thursday night game against the Jets. It was a big celebration. Like don't let anybody take away the joy of five and two from you, Cleveland.

Well, I totally disagree, though. I think it's the opposite. I think last year, what you're describing this year, like last year, everyone was hype. I think this year everyone was like, do they suck? Well, after a couple of weeks and they got killed by the Ravens. We were we won a week one this year. Yeah. So everyone's like, fuck the Browns. They're terrible. This team sucks. So I think it's like looking them at five and two.

I do think people are saying we're five and two. This is incredible.

They should be. But I'm saying you should feel that way. It was mostly like ESPN for the last couple of weeks are saying things like paper and all that. Yeah, yeah.

I disagree with the ESPN take. I'm sure they're selling Cleveland go off Kings. Not great news for the Bengals. Carlos Dunlap put his house on sale on Twitter right after the game was over. Oh, he said six thousand square foot Cityview with huge balcony, four bedroom, four and a half bathroom in one of the best school districts for sale. Do your market analysis make me an offer? Serious inquiries only with proof of funds.

I love that. So he immediately he's going to sell that. I'm with Bitcoin.

He immediately put his house on sale because he's like, fuck Cincinnati. I've been here for nine years, but this is too much.

I'm out. So the Bengals, Joe Buhrow. And we've we've talked about this before, but he's like running for his life now, we should get a little bit of context that the Bengals do have four out of five of their day. One starters have been out with injury. So it is a revolving door there. It's bad. The offensive line is bad. But if you're looking for positives, Zach Taylor looks pretty competent. Joe Barrow is the guy.

I've upgraded him, actually. Yeah, he was that dude. Now he's the truth. Yeah. Yeah.

Joe Mixon didn't play today and you were in this game. And then you have Tee Higgins, who looks very good, young receiver, Tyler Boyd, young receiver. I don't know where AJ Green is going to be in a year or two, but there's at least some like we've had this, you know, theme every time we talk about teams that are really down, if you could have one or two things, you can point to that like, OK, this is what we'll be looking forward to.

It doesn't feel as bleak. And I feel like that's definitely the case for the Bengals, especially the fact they're in every game. Yeah, they're fighting every single game.

I think what we're looking at here is a team with like a lot of young offensive talent, a team with, like, no real defense to speak of. And you're losing your guys like Carlos Dunlap, Geno Atkins. Again, we don't know where Geno is. Geno could be buried in Carlos Dunlop's basement somewhere for all we know.

But like, if you're hemorrhaging talent on that side of the ball, you're kind of being set up to be the next Falcons are the next Lions, because you're going to have a good quarterback for a while. You've got some really fucking fast receivers.

You've got a good running back to you have the draft one you just got to draft.

Well, come on, Cincinnati. So easy.

Nobody big, so easy to do. But I, I wanted to not be negative about the Bengals because I do think there are positive pieces and they're like next year will be big because next year, if you hope, maybe they can trade AJ Green, get some draft picks, whatever it may be. But next year you hope they start winning a couple of these close games because they've been in them. They've been in a lot of these games where, like, you know, last week, they're up twenty one.

Nothing against the Colts. They've been in games where it feels like, OK, they're a play or two away. So and that's credits, Joe. And, you know, if they get some help on the offensive line, maybe they'll win some games later on this year.

Maybe they'll do. Which would you? That's like the backup to or actually the best thing, the where the Bengals are at right now is not good, actually objectively bad, but things to look forward to. The next step is winning four out of five to finish the season. And being like this thing is we're cooking sleeper team going into next year.

Yeah. So you can see that's still ahead. Do you like if you can figure if you can get some help from the offensive line and figure a couple of things out at the end of the season, you rattle off a couple of wins because once you have your quarterback, you're not playing for a draft, but you are playing. Obviously, you still want to hydrophilic, but you're not playing for the number one pick and you're not like. Right.

You know, let's take let's take let's take tanking is for quarterback.

Imagine that luxury to be a Bengals fan and to be drafting not like at a at a best player available level, but just drafting for need. You're like, you know what, we need a defensive tackle. OK, that was that'll be a nice spot for us.

Here we go. Bengals fans, I mean, we're going to keep getting it. We're going to keep it going, OK? Keep the positive vibes going. You're the end of your season. Washington football team, Giants, Dolphins, Cowboys, Steelers.

You're going to lose Texans and Ravens week seventeen, which they're not going to probably be playing for anything because they'll have like the fifth seed locked up.

So they could be one of those teams. Get just get ready for that.

If the Bengals have five wins at the end of the season, I feel like that's I think they were victory.

I think they will have five wins at the end of the season. And I think what four wins is the end of season, but five wins because you count as a tie.

And when you perform three more, three more not losses.

Right. That's five losses.

That is a that's a great season in Cincinnati, right? Yes. Five nine. You've got a guy who's the truth at quarterback. Yeah, he's got the future.

OK, he's a picture of Joe with his family back like they went to a game in Cleveland. I want to say it was I know seven, eight years ago. Ah, it was right before he went to he went to OSU and he looked like he actually looked like a seventh grader. And he was like just standing on the field in Cleveland. And I think his brother was like today something like we're no longer Browns fans, like Fuck the Browns or something along those lines.

It was just nobody has aged more in there, like had as much of a blow up in their college days as Joe Brown did. Yeah. When he went there, he looked like he was twelve. When he got out, he looked like he was. Yeah, yes, yes.

He's good looking, dude. All right. So that's Browns. Bengals. Oh, one last thing. Donovan Jones, you might remember him from all time. Gus Johnson name on Big Noon Saturday was supposed to be like a stud of studs at Michigan.

He was good. But I just love the name because it's just it's the Gus Johnson name people Donovan Peoples Jobs. Yeah.

He loves having three names to say. Texas. Yeah. He loves having three names to say.

So that was a hell of a catch and a. Overthrow to win that game. All right, Steelers, titans. Well, I think we're actually going to disagree here, I, I thought the Steelers were going to win the game. The Steelers won the game and they kind of just fucked around in the second half. I still don't think the Titans are like top top level AFC. Oh, I don't think the Titans.

I didn't come away from this game. They they fought. They stunk in the first half the Titans. I know.

But so the two things that stick out to me with the Titans, are they they have. And maybe they'll just have a horseshoe up their ass this year because there are teams that just get the lucky bounces. They had two turnovers that were just kind of lucky bounces. They they won the turnover battle three, nothing in this game and still lost. And the other thing is they are the worst team. And I'm not saying this, this is not my opinion.

Titans fans don't get mad at me yet. I'll say more things you can get mad at. They are the worst team in the NFL on third down defense. They're so, so bad. The Steelers were 13 of 18 today. Their pass rush, they were they were worse coming into the game. Yeah. And they probably are even further into like thirty seconds.

I'll bet you right now, Mike Vrabel is like, why the fuck did I sign Jadeveon Clowney?

Just because I worked with him down in Houston for a little bit.

So I just that's I think Tannehill is good. Very good. I think obviously Derrick Henry's incredible AJ Brown when he's out there like that touchdown was awesome. And they they're very well coached. But the defense makes me pause at saying they are at the Chiefs, Steelers, Ravens level at the AFC because you can't you can't win if you're that bad on third down the way.

Didn't that exact same defense for the most part beat the shit out of the Ravens in the playoffs last year?

Yeah, so I think that's why I think that they can put it together.

But again, I just have, you know, a hot run. I'm just talking about, like what I'm watching. And this is not if we're putting it into to to tears, I'm not saying the Titans are bad. I'm saying there's a tier of Chiefs, Ravens, Steelers, and I think there's a step down to the Titans.

I think that the Titans and the Steelers are at about exactly the same level.

Did it feel like to steal the Steelers? They lose control. They just kind of so fucked up.

That angle the angle I'm taking is that as shitty as the Titans played in the first half, they were able to come back and almost win the game or tie the game in the second, basically saying, yeah, they sucked ass in the first, but I'm thrown out the window.

Yeah, I just watched the game. I feel like they got a couple of bounces that were like this.

They were their luck is just never going to run out. There were a sleeper for most of the first half.

Big Ben was doing like, oh, he was all his he was on all his, like, weird throws where he's at his best when he just goes full on panic in the pocket. And there's like two guys draped on me, just throws a ball out there and gets killed.

He's just he's falling down. It's a big tree falling down. Yeah. He just chucks the ball in a general direction.

I was also I was looking forward to the Titans maybe winning this game because I think that if they had, we would have the conversation of like Ryan Tannehill is he'll eat like he's in the MVP race.

I mean, he wasn't incredible today, but he was still good.

And, you know, he turned the ball over. So I I still think the Titans are they're obviously going to get to the playoffs. They're obviously going to win a bunch of games. And guess what?

Titans fans, the best part about this is in two weeks, the Titans play the Bears.

So we get to do this and you get to you get to tell me how long are you you get to help me out it even though I've never claimed that the bears are incredible.

But, yeah, I just I think the Titans are good. Not great. I think I walked away from it being like the Steelers. If the Steelers had just focused for sixty minutes, this would have been a three touchdown game. Yeah.

I also liked in the second half when it looked like we were watching the game on a VCR.

Yeah, well ah I was like yeah it was like the nineteen ninety earthquake World Series. Yes. We're just like these weird patterns we're floating across my TV. I had no idea. I thought it was like a filter that they put on the TV as was as I was watching RedZone channel that was kind of nice. And then I wanted to give a Gostkowski Hall of Fame update.

Second ballot now. Yes, second second best hammer. I agree with you there. Second ballot misses it. The woes continue where I think Mike Vrabel is going to get fed up and just be like we're not kicking like he did last year.

He should have done that after the after the Broncos game this year. And Brady was such a good coach because you are right that they did like coming back. That's so that's a good coach team to not lay down and just die.

And for all the fans that are very much going to get mad at me, I will say that I have the blessing of Taylor Lewan because I talked to him after the game and I was like, I think I'm borderline maybe going to start respecting the Titans. And he was like, I'd actually appreciate you not because from everything that I've seen, once you respect a team, they suck.

And I was like, good point. That's true. Yeah. So good point. I'll I'll keep nagging the Titans. They'll keep winning. I'll keep looking like an idiot. Theme of the show, I'll disagree, I will respect the Titans, I will give you guys I'm going to respect it that way. They can't get mad at the entire pod. Yes. No, that's OK. Yeah, listen, we could disagree on that.

I think it's always takes me a long time to ever respect the Titans just because of their their color scheme and uniform and the general like aura around the Tennessee Titans. And as they've been in the past. Yes, I guess they still have a little like Jeff Fisher Musk on them.

Yeah, and I, I also they're one in five against the spread. I don't count their win against the Texans against the spread. That was bullshit that they won by six in overtime. But they're so if you count, that is not a win like I just did the one in five against spread. And so, you know that that matters to me.

My big question is, how do the Steelers get this schedule? The steal the Steelers don't play anybody ever.

Yeah. Outside of their division. I mean, all the time. Well, buddy, you just disrespected the Titans. I said the sizes. Yeah, but it took you a second. Just disrespectful to you know, they do not.

This is insane. Like how how does this happen.

They're going to how Mr. and Mr. Rooney has some little future.

I have a little tiny little future on the Steelers. This is a nice price.

They've played a ridiculously easy schedule.

The Giants, Broncos, Texans, Eagles, Browns, and then besides the Ravens, which is going to be a great game next week, that's going to be a very big game for both of those teams to play the Ravens twice.

And then they have to play the bills at the bills. Besides that, they should win all their games.

Yes, according to team rankings, dotcom. Thirty of thirty two. There you go. Who's number thirty two Colts.

Oh, interesting. That's just because they get to play. Yeah. The Jaguars and the Texans twice. Yes. And and who else is in this.

They have a really strong opponent down in Nashville. Yeah. All right. Before we get to the next thirty ones, probably the Jaguars the before we get to the next ad, you're probably thinking about lunch today.

Well, I got you I got you covered right now with our friends at Jimmy Johns. I love Jimmy Johns. You love Jimmy Johns. And Jimmy Johns delivers freaky, freaky fast so, so fast.

I did forget one thing I wanted to throw out there for the Steelers Titans. I totally forgot. So Steelers with the twenty point lead. The only reason that this is a relevant stat is because we talked about the Falcons win probability and how terrible it is.

The Steelers with a 20 point lead in the history of their franchise, 213 in zero.

Jesus, the Falcons have lost the twenty point lead game this year.

That's insane. Yeah, I mean, it's it's it's crazy because you think like, oh, twenty point lead. You should never lose that button. Of course. Two hundred thirteen games at some point you lose it, but now 213 to zero and one.

The only other note I have in this game, the head coaches, it was Mike and Mike. So that was kind of an that was just okay. Yeah.

All right. So Panthers Saints Drew Brees washed, Meeta not washed, had a good game. I kind of felt this one coming just because the Panthers don't really have, like, a ferocious defense and.

Drew Brees had time today, but yet he he looked good today. Well, yes, from a football standpoint, he looked good. But I'm actually I'm concerned with him and Matt Ryan with their health.

Well, they're both just getting they're both shrinking to both getting smaller and emaciated.

I don't know if they've been sick with the whole it's whenever whenever like what? Five years ago, whenever someone made the decision that fitness was no longer being men and lifting weights and now it was just having little rubber bands and stretching your hamstrings, it's because fitness is these days, guys.

It's because Drew Brees isn't allowed to play dodgeball in PE anymore. No, you know what it is?

It's everyone saying that soccer bodies are the hot spots. Yeah. So now it's not there's no muscles are out. Toned bodies are in.

He's just he's banking on his self. He's getting paler. He's turning into I know he looks almost like a he looks like a Six Flags guy a little bit. Remember that annoying guy that used to dance around. Yes. He's just like his his his head's getting bigger. Yeah. But his skin is like shrinking in on itself.

What are palletize. Palletize is where you say that you go to meet chicks. What is it though.

A system of exercises using special apparatus designed to improve physical sports taxability bullshit and enhancement bullshit. You know what it is?

I think I think it's a class that you go to to lift the smallest amount of weight possible in like very, very high reps. Do you say, you know what, I'm not looking to get bulky. I'm just looking to get toned?

See, we need the pendulum to swing back because I think we've had this idea on the show that we should start a gym that's just manual labor and we just make someone, like, build stuff.

Yeah, the gym is you build us the gym. Yeah.

You build us the gym and then a house and then a wall. And then a car. And then a moat. Yeah. Then we have a castle.

If you just assemble like the squat racks and treadmills and shit for it's a workout. Yeah. And then you get to work out for like a week after you've assembled a part of the gym. That's right. That's your payment instead of dues.

Yes. So safe seats.

Panthers Michael Thomas, according to our friend Mike, Mike Florio said potentially maybe someone could be traded. And then Sean Payton said insiders on the outside where they belong roasted.

I think that there's something weird going on, Michael Thomas, because you think that because he is so good, can't guard Mike, one of the best Twitter names out there.

But yes, he is he's a big reason why the offense hasn't looked awesome like they have in the past.

Also, Drew Brees, his arms falling off maybe. But there's something going on where I think he's probably on the trading block. Yeah.

And Sean Payton, they just keep coming up with weird excuses for me. Thinks the lady doth protest too much like he replied on Twitter and is a katsas.

What does that from his account is locked.

Is this Shakespeare or some. Yeah, I think it's Shakespeare or whatever. I mean, if you say me thinks it's got to be chassagne, trying to it's trying to he who smelt it dealt it basically.

Yeah. So if you're like, oh, someone farted, it's like, yo, that dude that just said that Shakespeare, that dude protesting way to Hamlet, the lady doth protest too much.

Methinks I had it right.

Yeah. Shakespeare. Yeah. No but I screwed up the sentence. You're good. The I like you actually fact checking us. This is something Billy could do but he doesn't know if you have got it exactly right.

I would say that that's more of Florida. Yeah. You say I do plotty. Yeah. Michael Thomas. I think he's going to be traded. Yeah. He likes soccer practice.

Sean Payton. Yeah. Sean Payton replying to that is a total red flag. Sean P doesn't do Twitter. Yep. He was. He's basically trying to say, no, we're not just so that he can get a better deal. And also I think Florida is on the inside of the Saints.

Jaros got his tentacles. Sean Payton, this guy, they reach way down south.

Yes. He's a big Saints guy. So Teddy Bridgewater was awesome.

Joe Brady is by is like No. One on the boy genius. Next boy genius.

Yeah, he's he's my wild card to get a job. I hate coaching jobs. Yes, absolutely. Going to happen.

He is definitely going to be. There's going to be a feature about Joe Brady revolutionizing football, just like every guy who's revolutionized football before him. But he is awesome. I mean, that that offense doesn't have a running game right now. And they're just they don't have, like, incredible talent. Teddy Bridgewater, he didn't his his only real big mistake was taking that sack.

He's good. D.J Moore is really good, too. Yeah.

Did you know they don't have they don't have to have a running game speak of you. Right. But they don't have like they don't have insane wide receiver. They have good guy James recruiters. Good. Yeah. No, no. Robby Anderson. Robby Anderson. The other other guy. Yeah. Robby Anderson's good. Yeah. D.J. Moore is good but they don't have no one's going to confuse the Panthers skilled positions as being like a top five unit in the NFL.

And it's hard to tell sometimes when you have a new head coach, like how much of it is just the fact that nobody has film on you so they can't figure out what the fuck you're doing and how much is like, oh, yeah, this guy actually is changing stuff up like, you know, the second half of the season. They don't change anything and now every defense knows what they end up doing.

I want to I want to flag Matt Rule. Yeah. That room went to the smok today for the first time.

This. Yes, he did. He debuted the Carolina Blue Smock. I, I feel like he went to the smocked too soon. Yeah. That's that's a move that you wait to do.

If you're like losing in a playoff game at halftime, you come out for the second half in the CMOC.

Well, you don't do it in week seven. The only reason the spark works for him right now is with the face shield. He really is just everyone. Shop teacher from seventh grade. Yeah.

Like he really has that look. Yeah. I'm a guy who's, you know, at some point maybe there was an athlete in there, but he's really given up. And right now he just wants to make sure none of the kids, like, cut their fingers off.

Yeah, he's kind of got the wylder look going on to. But I don't know.

It's just it's too early to that is that's a major, like, big time energy boost move. You don't want to waste it in a game like this. You want to.

Yeah. Hold on your back. Although, División, you know, this would have been a nice, really nice win for the Panthers. Now they fall back down to earth where where we kind of expected them to be because after that win, whatever it was a few weeks ago where they went three and two and was like, oh, watch out for the Panthers, ourselves included, because Teddy Bridgewater is a covering machine.

It did lead us to respect Teddy. I mean, he's a covering machine. He covers spreads. That's what he does. So the Panthers, though, fall short. Gisli, that kick, that was the best mis kick of any sort of kick. He it was just so Teddy Bridgewater takes a sack, a pretty inexcusable sack. I don't know what I mean.

I'll have to wait till all twenty two comes out guys. But he takes a sack which it was like around. It would have been about a fifty two yarder. He takes a second on, third down and so now they're all the way back. Joey Slye kicks a sixty five yarder when I say it was dead on like in the center, it was dead on in the center and it missed by maybe eight inches fell short. So if, if, if Teddy Bridgewater had taken a sack that was an inch, you look at that, it was that close and that was sixty five yards that none of that he needed.

It was the greatest missed kick. Yeah. Again, Joey Slye. Great, great, awesome, cool guy name.

And he had I think he had covered all week.

So he was he was practicing at 1:00 in the morning with no one around.

I mean, that's a perfect position to get covered because no one hangs out with him anyway. Right. So let's show you probably doing that. Yeah. All right. Next up, Bill's Jets hyperdrive hyperdrive actually worked for a quarter and a half.

Well, I did think you had Jets money line ten, nothing.

Cover the your first cover of the year for the Jets. Oh, wow. OK, are you guys I didn't want to have the Jets beat me.

I was like, I'll beat myself going down with that with that plane day. I do think we're ten points. Yeah. Adam Gates gave up play calling. Yeah. Start a dialogue, so he'll probably like take it back again next week. Yup. You know what the like impetus for him doing that was when all of his assistant said, no, you keep calling plays. Yeah.

He foisted on dialogue and Arnold looked good like a little shot in the arm. I think that's just I think maybe that's the key to the Jets for the rest of the year. They should look at their schedule. If they're playing a tough team, they should. Flacco in there, when they play a team, maybe a little bit less, they put Donald in. It's like swinging with with the weight on your, you know, a batting doughnut.

Right. Because when you have to go from Flacco to Donald, everything looks just about twenty five percent better and faster because it's not a corpse under center.

And you also don't want to ruin Sam Donald's confidence entirely.

What's left of it after he's gotten through dealing with Adam Gase for like two years, you put make them let him play against the shitty teams.

You didn't even you're not even like protesting anymore about Flacco.

Flacco is like I usually when I see him, you're like, hey, now I've know I've given up on it's over. Flacco is a beautiful boy.

The Jets, they can kill anybody.

The Jets, jets, the Jets, except what little remaining life Flacco had running through his veins.

Right now, maybe hyperdrive looks good for ten. Nothing. Maybe he'll get on a team next year and I'll buy back in. Maybe the guy in the locker room. Yeah, he's a good guy to have around.

He's got a big family. Give him a job next year. Be a hyperdrive worked.

He's he's an old coach. He's one of those old quarterbacks. It's sad because you see, like Tom Brady playing to his forty three and you see, you know, Josh McCown, you know, I think forty and he was a backup last year.

He's a backup right now. He's backup right now. Yeah. Burning it like a hotel somewhere.

But Joe Flacco has lost so much athleticism here and have a lot to begin with. But he lost so much that he can't like taking a snap under center and doing a five step drop fast enough to not get sacked is almost impossible.

Yeah, he I don't know what happened to him over the course the last three years. I think maybe he just kind of was always trending this direction. But just being out in Denver. Yeah.

Exacerbated that he had the greatest run like he. The life lesson of Joe Flacco is just for one stretch in your life, in your career, get a personal life, get hot and stay hot for a little bit of time. And then you can always look back and be like, that was me back the truck up.

Yeah, that makes me so kid in good shape. One also has like that was me. He hasn't found an offensive coordinator that's willing to use his strength, which is just like protect him for three seconds, let him throw the ball 40 yards downfield and let him get a pass interference against the defense. Yes, that is the ultimate Joe Flacco offense. And he has he hasn't been he's been a square peg in a round hole at the last two places where he's expected to complete passes.

Yes.

And that's not his game. Yeah. So the bills were sloppy, straight up sloppy. Eleven penalties. They won with eight field goals. I think we need to do something because I can't I can't do the back and forth Josh Allen thing every single week.

I like Josh Allen. I'm going to defend Josh Allen. I'm just going to say here now, he's still young and he's still a work in progress. And sometimes, like, they'll be weeks where he's not a finished product.

Listen, the first four weeks of the season, all right, we ran up the score. So now when he does it anyway, didn't play like that bad today, but they had trouble in the red zone. And so we get it back thrown. I'm I'm saying, Truc, if you if the other side can agree that he's a good quarterback and we can agree that he's not yet an MVP, I think that's a fair middle ground.

I disagree. I think I think he still has who he was right under the surface lurking. I think the guy that we saw going in the first four weeks, the guy that we saw is still inside that body.

Someone still got I'm is I'm not taking a knock at him. I'm saying it's going to be week to week.

Sometimes there will be weeks where it's just he did do the thing today where he was getting tackled and then, like, tried to throw the ball backwards and he was about to move it out. Yeah, I love it, too.

It's part of what makes him endearing. And he beat the Jets.

Listen, he went he didn't throw any interceptions. He won. Yeah, he wasn't. It was just more their offense looked bad in the red zone. Like when you have eight field goal, something went wrong. Yep. Yeah. Against the Jets. But then again, maybe that was just low energy because the Jets bring low energy, they suck you down the energy vampires, the reverse Seahawks. Yeah, well when you play the Seahawks. Yeah.

Crazy shit happens. Your offense can score from anywhere on the field. When you play against the Jets, sometimes you're just like, I'm bored playing against you. Yeah, they're energy vampires. All right. I just actually look at.

Oh, God damn it. The Jets do have Monday Night Football game. Yes, so the Patriots, which now is like a terrible game like I was I was hoping you'd saying, like the jets are energy vampires.

Like, please don't give us one more prime time jets game, OK?

All right. Next up, Cowboys Washington football team.

Yep. So I guess stat for you to start it off the Cowboys. Well, no, I've got to that.

We're going to start with the Mike McCarthy. Yeah. When you get to four wins in your division, a lot of research that he's found. Yes. Says that you're more likely to win your division.

Yes. So so. So who who's the reporter. Was it. Was it. Shit.

I don't know. Find it, Jake. She said Mike McCarthy told me there's research that once a team gets to four division wins, it's likelier to win the division.

Wow. Research uncovered. Yeah.

Football games can lead to success and winning divisions and making the play in your division.

If you beat those divisional opponents, it makes you more likely a lot of teams game plan to not win those divisional games and throw them out and say whatever will treat them normally. But when you treat them with more importance, you can get more wins, which then means that you can win your division, sometimes more likely.

I wonder if Mike McCarthy then took that incredible knowledge that he got off the pro football focus subscription that has definitely lapsed and said, oh, my computer making my brothers, Jake.

I think that the zones of the NFL Network, Kate Jones, Jim Jones are. So Jim Jones who?

Kim Jones. I like that as good. Nice, Hank. That was good. Thank you. Do it again. Is it the first time Jones who? Mike Jones who. I'm Mike Jones. Kim Jones.

Now just hope stepping on Mike Jones, who got aspire to be a rapper that just says their name and their phone number one.

Yet, Jason Derulo, you could just call me Psych Derulo. It was like in his songs, you just give him a call.

He'd pick up sometimes. Yeah, yeah. It's very, very smart marketing.

So, Mike McCarthy, do you think he then took, though, that incredible analysis that he got that winning football games in the division can help you win the division and then took it to the guys and was like, listen, this means all we got to do is go one and all this week.

And he just like Mike, Mike McCarthy has overthought everything he's known about football since getting fired by the Packers and having Aaron Rodgers ruined his life to the point where he is now reading all this stuff and then, like reverse engineering himself back to the most basic Neandertal football guy.

I think he uncovered that stat and he actually thought it was like he was a national treasure. We like uncovered this ancient football riddle written in blood on Jerry Jones's will. And he's like, you guys will never believe what I just came up with right now. So we got to go out. We got to beat the Washington football team.

And if we do, we're in a better position to win the division. And he thought that he was the smartest person in the room, which he probably usually does think that.

Yes, I'm. Oh, yeah, always. I'm actually now like this quote is making me a Mike McCarthy fan. And I never thought I would do that because here's what what I love about it is that Mike McCarthy is so relatable in this moment that I've had this personally.

I think a lot of people probably I've had that where you say to yourself, I want to be smarter, I want to read more, I want to learn numbers. I want to try to better myself. He had all the intentions of doing that.

And then when he absorbs all the information and takes in all the articles and the numbers and everything, his dumb shit for brains can only spit out like the most baseline understanding of it, which is winning is good.

Yeah, like that is the most. Because every time I try to get smarter, all that comes out is like the absolute bare minimum of what I learned. And I go touting it around and telling everyone I'm like, hey, I read a book, you know, you see me when I read a book, I'm on one. Right? So Mike is doing Mike McCarthy reads Malcolm Gladwell jumping point. Yeah.

And he spends like a week in a dark room with this book and he comes out, he's like the Beatles were good because they practiced a lot.

Yeah. Like Joe Paterno didn't actually know. Yeah. Yeah. They just here's why he he reads a book and then comes out of it with like the most basic or dummies version. Yes. Like you read the back of the book. Yes.

He probably read Pro Football Focus for ten thousand hours.

I like Mike McCarthy. If he actually meant this as like something that he's uncovered, if he was being sincere, I honestly think he's doing it pretty.

I think he did. I think he is so dumb like us.

Again, I'm saying I am just as dumb as Mike McCarthy that this is the lesson he learned from looking at a bunch of fucking pie charts and percentages and cool color graphs that you see on pro football focus.

I have a pro football focus subscription.

That shit is like Chinese to me, so I just stare at it. If he if he came out of this or he had like this interview with Kim Jones and he was like, you know what, I have to put something out there in the news that will get back to Jerry. So Jerry thinks that I'm working hard. So I'm just going to say some numbers. I like him less. But if he actually believes, like, holy shit, this is cool.

Yeah. Something new. And then he gave that as like an honest answer. Yeah, you're right. I like I like games in the division matter more. Yes. Because you want to win the division. So Mike McCarthy, I think we just talked ourselves into being Mike McCarthy.

God, I like how he's also saying, like, maybe I'm coaching these guys too much. I think that might be the problem is, yes, I'm being too hands on with them.

Well, I'll tell you what stuff there is a I mean, that is true with Mike Nolan. Mike Nolan.

I don't know what Mike Nolan has done an incredible job of just making all of his defensive players terrible and so much so that so the Washington football team going into this game, they were the only team in the NFL to not have a rusher with 60 yards or more in a game. They got that in the first quarter. Yeah. Yeah.

So that's how bad the defense is for the Dallas. But don't they have good linebackers?

Like the last I checked, they they had latent Vandar. I think Mike Nolan had Jaylon Smith, right. Yeah. And he's been lost. Thinks he stinks this year because Mike Nolan, it's like remember when whenever North Turner would go with his ten thousand page playbook and the offense would look different.

But what's going on here like. Oh well yeah, it's a totally different system. I think Mike Nolan has just confused the fuck out of every single person on the Dallas D and Mike Nolan has one move to save his job as a defense coordinator.

You don't have a lot of. Because you don't really ever give up or take play calling, you're usually like the one guy that gets blamed, even if your head coach is a defensive guy like defensive coordinator. It's a hard job to keep in the NFL. When you stink, the best thing that you can do is just become known as like a mad scientist blitz guy. Yeah, like just dial something up, just bring the heat.

Just say, like, go go in the press next week and be like, you know what? I'm going to need to dial some new stuff up. Yeah. I'm going to get exotic with my blitz's. Our guys are going to pin our ears back. Yes.

Look at fucking Gregg Williams. He is Gregg Williams is an absolute shit head of a person, but he's just as much. Yeah, he's a rat. He's an asshole. He's a jerk. He throws everyone under the bus, but he brings the heat. Yeah, you blitz.

And it doesn't matter if they like if they catch you on a zero blitz and they they drop like a forty yard touchdown, you you're like, yeah, you know what, we'll live and die with that guy because he's an aggressive play caller on defense, because it also when you blitz when you're when you're Dr. Heat and you blitz and it works, nothing looks better.

Yeah. You look like you look like the eighty five bears and then you can also blame your players after the game.

If you just blitz the shit out of them and they score fifty on you, you'd be like our guys got to get home. Right. You know, when we, when we bring pressure we've got to get to the quarterback and you can also just be like the well, because usually you'll lose like Tom Brady or Drew Brees or who just eat up blitz's and be like, wow. I mean, no one's beaten those guys, but you have to try something.

I'd rather die. I'd rather die blitzing, then die just playing end zone. Yeah, we can always say that. And if we play, if we drop back into Nicole coverage or dime coverage, they're just going to pick us apart back there. Yeah. So you're going to get pressure on them and knock them down. And that's really the best way that you can. The only way that you can beat the Washington football team and Kyle Allen is if you get up in his face and knock him around a little bit.

Yeah. If you don't, he's just going to be a surgeon out there dissecting you for up to and including twenty five points.

That's it's a great point. Got to blitz my going. You got to blitz, I mean you also have to tackle which you just haven't taught.

Everyone forgot how to tackle this game was two to nothing for a second which was awesome. And there was fifteen to three. It was awesome. And then also we should mention that John Bostik, Steeler former Pittsburgh Steeler, drafted by the Bears, whatever, which I watched that that clip of him hitting Teddy Bridgewater, Florida, Louisville in that bowl game. I've never sold myself on a draft pick faster than that. But it's just a cool name. Bostik.

Yeah. In that hit, I mean, that hits an old timer, like, I'm pretty sure Florida lost that game.

But I remember on draft night being like, oh, my God, this guy is going to bring the fucking wood.

But yeah, that was a dirty scumbag hit on Andy Dalton and Andy Dalton.

We make our jokes and we have our fun, but like normalcy and don't get hurt.

No, it says a nice guy said it was a dirty hit. I'm not going to go Tom Wilson on this. It was a dirty hit. Dirty, very dirty hit. He'll probably be suspended for a little bit. I actually thought, fine, is that the most interesting take was Danny Woodhead podcast partner Matt Slawson said all the Dallas offensive lineman should be in prison for not fighting Jeff Bostic after that hit.

Yes, John Bostik. Yeah.

If you saw the hit, the lineman just kind of stood around like, damn, they got Andy Fox.

Yeah, man, I wish it was me. Yeah. I didn't have to play anymore. You got to play.

Quarterback Mike McCarthy said that after the game, too. He was very upset about that.

Yeah, but you're the coach like you're the coach of the team. Pull up the John Bassett. Teddy Bridgewater said, I want to see that just to feel it.

Now, we have been to Nucci, Ben Bernanke keeping a good change that they really should trade for for Ryan Fitzpatrick.

They really should. I was thinking about Keenum.

Could Fitzpatrick conceivably do a series of one week contracts with different teams. Yes, why not. I want them to be floating around.

I don't want to be committed to to the Dallas Cowboys. This hit made me. I was like, oh my God, John Bostick is going to be the monsters of the midway or back. Yeah, he sucks. By the way, he's not a good player, so he just does big hits and sometimes very illegal hits. We also saw Ezekiel Elliott is having like quietly the worst year. Not only is he fumbling, but that clip of him trying to recover, which blitzed by USC legend Cole Holcomb.

Yeah, Cole looked like a fucking Hall of Fame linebacker. Yeah, he looked like someone talk shit to him.

Your text reads like, oh, run over. This guy ran over him.

It was one of the hits where he, like you, hit the guy who's trying to block you into the quarterback. Yes. And that's how you get the sack. It feels awesome. Yeah. When that happens, Elliott, time feels about right for him to fake an injury.

Well, he got paid, so he's just kind of hang.

He should just he should say, listen, I got a rib, I'm hanging out for a couple.

He's kind of already doing that. Yeah. But like, why do I do it at home? It's incredible.

And I guess what I would say, I'm not even really talking shit about Ezekiel Elliott, because if I were him and I got paid how much money to get a shitload, I'd probably be.

You know what? I don't really want to go out there and absorb hits and concussions and break bones anymore. I'd rather just chill at home playing Xbox. Ninety million, yes, six years not, you know, the Cowboys just saw a bean bag that's the size of my entire room. They eat barbecue all day.

The cowboys, like with coronavirus, the NFL should have given an option for teams to opt out collectively at any point during the season. Cowboys and the Jets absolutely would do it at this point.

Jerry would not let them. I don't know, man. Jerry get better. It would start an entirely new team and bring them in close to.

Here's the good news for everyone. The Cowboys are horrendous. We have three more times that. They're on national television.

And you know what? It's not that there are energy vampires like the Jets because watching the cowboys stink this badly is so much fun to do. Yes, it is a lot of fun to see how bad they suck because usually the cowboys suck, but they have at least a hint of an expectation that they've got enough talent to win a game.

Yes. Like they could maybe go 10 and six or seven and five if all goes well.

Now you get to see the Cowboys as one of, like, legitimately the three worst teams in the NFL. And just know that Skip Bayless is watching. You know, he's when you look out the window at the same moon, you're like Skip Bayless is looking at that moon right now thinking he's pissed off cowboys.

Yes. And Stephen A. Smith is looking at that moon. Just Flip and Skip Bayless off.

Yes. Yes, it's a great point. So more cowboys.

The first time in NFL history there were week seven with no teams in the division with at least three wins. This incredible who cares?

Washington football team is still in it. Half a game out. They killed their Trevor Lawrence chances maybe. Do do you think just winning two games. It's a possibility. No way. FLACCO What? I'm talking about Flacco again and the end and Washington football team is going to play the Cowboys again. And they have the Giants twice, right? Oh, no.

They have one more one more time against the Giants. Now, I am talking myself into the Washington to Washington football team. This is what this is the beauty of the NFC East. One week you're Trevor Lawrence. The next week you're in the winning the NFC.

How awesome would it be, though? I think we looked it up last week. I was wondering if a team could conceivably win their division if they went, I think three, thirteen three and thirteen could go Unifor and twelve in four and twelve could win division if you go four and twelve and every other team finishes at four and twelve also.

But like you win the series of tiebreakers or coin flips, you win the division and then you also get the number one overall pick in the draft because you win the series of coin flips that determines a tie for every team. No, that can't happen to get there.

But it's if you make the playoffs. Yeah. You then you're automatically put out of that team.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Which you actually ruin yourself for a draft. Yes. You really four and twelve.

You would be like the fifth draft pick and then you bump all the way down to eighteen but you could tie for first place in the NFC East and also get the number one overall pick in the draft.

You actually quotability by the way, you'd actually go, I think. I don't I don't know if it's when you lose, I think you actually be lower than eighteenth because you'd win the division. And then I think it's based on like when you lose, but I think I'm trying to do the math with all the different wild cards. I think it's I think you'd be lower than the wild cards. You should one division, I would think. But you know what?

At this point, I want if I were to go one way or the other, we're not going to get the number one overall pick. So let's just win the whole fucking division and be legends.

And then who knows, maybe you catch lightning in a bottle one week in the playoffs, you win a wild card game.

Yeah, why not? It could happen here. Yeah, believe it. Achieve it.

Packers, Texans, Texans suck and Davante Adams and Aaron Rodgers aren't fair together. That that's all I wrote down.

Yeah. Davante Adams is good. JJ What is mad as hell. He also said he was mad as hell and they just said about losing shit. Sucks shit really sucks. Watch your mouth JJ Bill.

Brian's ghost kids are coaching this team because the Texans did kick a field goal to make it a three score game from a three score game. So I think the score was twenty eight to seven.

Yes, twenty eight to seven. And they kicked a field goal to make it twenty ten, which sounds a lot better, you have to admit.

Twenty eight to ten sounds way.

But what if you're Romeo Crennel. You can't do it, you can't have it both ways. You went for two against Titans last week to go up nine in like the the gunslinger interim head coach. Fuck it, let's just do it now. You're doing like the Pat Shurmur box score next day.

I want to lose by less so that they give me the job, which they won't do.

You're assigning way too much strategy, right? Not to Romeo Crennel, Romeo Crennel. He coaches off his gut.

It's that's why I think it maybe Bill O'Brien actually still has like he still has an office in the stadium and he's just talking to every well, he is still the janitor.

He's the grounds crew guy. He's a single chef.

Yeah, but Romeo Crennel, he just he looks at twenty eight to seven. He's like, man, look a lot cooler if we had double digit points. Yeah. And then sometimes every now and again he just goes for two. I don't think there's a rhyme or reason to when he does or doesn't do it. No. I do know that like when coaches fall into these weird score games, like the football team Cowboys game where it was fifteen to three coaches just start going four to every time they score a touchdown because they're like, I'm not used to seeing these numbers.

Yeah. And we score touchdowns. I'm going to assume I need to go for two.

I want to get back on track. Yeah. I want to get to got to get back on track. Get me to a zero or a seven and then I'll stop going for two.

Yeah. So the Packers looked good afterwards. They're like we, you know, we owed it to ourselves after, after getting our ass kicked by the box like we're mad.

All this stuff you play, the Texans you played, the Texans, you looked good. The Packers are good team. They will beat up on bad teams.

They did this also without Aaron Jones. So the Packers are very good, but the Texans are really bad. Yeah. And the Texans run. Defense is really bad.

And I think the Packers are in a good position to receive bad. No, I mean, I don't know why they beat the Texans. Dude, Packers are really good. No, they beat the Texans. Why would you say, like one week they beat the Texans. The Texans are the best, worst team?

No, I don't think so anymore. After this loss. Maybe not. Yeah, I have to crunch the stats in the best, worst team to me is the Titans.

OK, that's fair. I was going to say maybe the Patriots, you know, we're going to get there because, heck, we got to get Henck Heynckes.

We got to get there. All right. The Packers are good. They're very good. OK, they're very good. Whatever. I don't care. I'm obviously very biased or very good whatever. But it was the Texans. Who cares.

They're very good chargers, jaguars Justin Herbert gets his first win, Gardner, Minshew, six straight losses. This game was fucking crazy.

This game, every time you looked up, there was a different touchdown, a weird touchdown score GOMI. Right, Jake score GOMI. Yep. Thirty nine. For me, the scores never happened in the NFL history, but yeah there was like block kicks and DBMS. But Justin Herbert, it's good that he finally won a game because he like basically did the Chargers thing where he was just losing in terrible fashion against really good teams. Yeah. So it's nice to have the Jaguars come in and get that win.

He's got that a little bit of like youthful night. Was it naive. Nice where he just he likes to tuck the ball and run with it. He's really good at it. Yeah. But he's one of these guys.

It like scrambles after looking off one guy and then he'll just get his ass kicked as he's like jumping, diving forward. And he still hasn't gotten hit hard enough, I think over the course of like the last six weeks.

Yeah. Like realize, oh, that's the electric fence. I might want to stop touching that. Yeah, he's fun to watch. He just like kind of he's a big ball energy which I like. Yeah.

No he and he's got a rocket arm and on the other side I'm getting really sad about the Jaguars because I saw this article that they're thinking about going to Mike Glennon. Like why would you do that.

Like why would you do that to us. You're going to lose you're trying to tank Gartmann shoes, at least fun to watch.

It's cool to look at on the sideline.

Do you see his bandana? He was rocking like that. Yeah. Yeah. That looks Swedish, right? Exactly.

He should be allowed to rock like a tie dyed jersey, like a uniform, like the red one where you're not allowed to hit the quarterback. Yes.

Tie dye one where you're only allowed to hang out and smoke a shitload of weed with the quarterback after the game. Yes, I like Gardner Minshew.

I don't think that he's the problem. I think that there are a lot of other problems, though. They have no talent. Doug Moran was wearing his mask upside down for the entire game and nobody told him.

That's fine. That's it's fine. I don't have a problem with it, but I have a problem with the fact that nobody told Doug Moran they respect him too much.

No, he could never beat the shit out of them because he would broncs to him.

Yeah. He got beat up Jalen Ramsey. He would in a heartbeat.

Yeah. I just felt bad for him because it was like very obviously on upside down and nobody was even talking to know what it was like.

He is he is a scary guy. He is a positive thing about that. But I actually kind of agree with Diana's tweet a little bit.

He could beat the shit.

I think he could beat up every coach in the NFL not named Mike Vrabel.

Yeah, I think Vrabel would be forgetting anyone specific. Yeah, Vrabel, Riverwood Vrabel would kick the fuck out of it.

He would he would eat Kliff Kingsbury.

I'd like to say I actually like Skidmore's I might be a dark horse now Brian for pretty tough dude. Yeah. Yeah. OK, ok. That was that game that was good for the Jaguars and nothing else to talk.

Yeah. Good for the Jaguars. Good for the Chargers. Bad for the Jaguars. Jaguars scored a lot of points any time the Jaguars scored more than twenty points. I kind of chalk that up as you know, as a moral victory for them.

They've also given up like Jaguars. If the Jaguars can score a little bit, they're great over team because they their defense is so bad.

They give up thirty points to everyone. Yeah, everyone. And it's and there's the public perception because their defense was so good that like, oh, they still got that defense before we get to our next game.

Pfft. I have to say we talked about this game earlier, but my group was going off for the end of the Lions Falcons. My, my spin been going off all weekend. Off go off King. I've been I've been rocking this thing. I'm wearing it tomorrow.

I think we're doing the the five K on Monday afternoon, shortly after noon, people in the office are going to run.

I'm going to try to run it there, try to get a decent time. I don't know what good time is for me. As long as they break thirty minutes, I'll be happy with it.

OK, Chiefs. Broncos. Patrick Mahomes threw for two hundred yards. The Chiefs, 143, 16 now, they had a pick, kick, return, pick six. But the chiefs are fucking scary, man, because they can win games like so many different ways now.

And when their defense plays well and then they can run the ball, it's like, what the fuck?

And then now Le'Veon Bell is happy. Yeah, he jumped out of the out of the plane in New York with, like the D.B. Cooper briefcase of cash. And now he's just in an offense that he likes and enjoys and is fun to be around.

It's not fair for the entire rest of the NFL that now Le'Veon Bell is a is a chief because I was actually I was liking the Chiefs more this year than it was like last year, because I like l'air.

I like club. I just like, you know, Clyde seems like a cool guy as a rookie coming in and playing that well, he's fun to root for and now they're just like, OK, they've got everybody there. The chiefs of everybody on the.

Yes, they have The Avengers. Are you ready to talk about your boy? Because you hold me to standards when it comes to guys. I might have been I might be your guy. I might have been oversold.

Andrew Luck by others. If my question to you is, if, Drew, if we never get that video of true Lochte dancing on the sideline, does anyone think that Drew Lock is a franchise quarterback? My reason for thinking he was a franchise quarterback was way dumber than that.

It started back at like the Senior Bowl when he gave the double finger guns to a reporter that asked him a question.

Oh, OK.

Because he also did he did the dance. Mizzou played Texas. No, no.

He got it thrown in his face.

No, he was just doing the double finger guns because he was talking about how he doesn't. I think he said he doesn't bench that much, but he squats a lot. Yeah. And somebody said, like, legs feed the wolf somewhere and give him the finger.

So where are you at with him? Because he's now not complicated. It's complicated. Eight touchdowns, seven interceptions.

He looked bad. He did. He looked very bad and lost. Yep. Like, you know, when a young quarterback just doesn't see it. And so they're scrambling and they're throwing it to places they shouldn't be throwing it. And it's just like there's some young quarterbacks where they'll once in a while, you know, in a game there'll be one or two throws you like, whoa, that was young quarterback throw. You know, then there's young quarterbacks.

It's like they're lost. He's in the loss category right now.

I'm not going to throw him out. I'm not saying he's done. I'm just saying you might have to reassess.

I'm I'm in the process of reassessing right now.

And right now, the biggest conclusion I can come to is that he looks very Pat Shurmur like Pat Shurmur has his hooks into him big time.

Like you want to talk about an energy vampyre. Pat Shurmur, just the name Pat Shurmur.

Yeah, I think I'm falling asleep halfway, say, but his offense is they're just boring to boring as fuck. They're boring in in New York when he was coaching there like he is, he's not a good person to be installing like a fancy high speed offense.

And the fact that he's teamed up with Vic Fangio, who doesn't want to do anything innovative offensively, he's like the height of of developing an exotic offense for Vic Fangio is like, let's sign a free agent running back.

So what I'm getting from this is you're at the state of I'm not ready to admit that maybe I was wrong.

No, I'm going to blaming everyone else. I'm blaming everyone.

OK, I am assessing, though I'm in the process of assessing, which I usually don't do. Yes, I usually ignore everything. And I'm just like, he'll turn a corner. Yeah.

Or just like keep going with it and then it becomes its own bit. Yeah. Like I'm good then. I'm just joking about my guy.

Yes. No but Drew like I'm assessing Drew like OK. The thing about me and Drew like is I'm not really tied into the guy whatsoever. Well you did. I just spoke very highly of him. You said he was your guy. I thought my biggest key indicator for Drew Lock was he was making these you gave REMOXY word Moxey gave him a lot of praise.

He was making these throws into tight windows and finding himself in the right place at the right time all the time.

And so at some point I'm like, there's something about him which is not really because he's only eight touchdowns in seven or just his last year that I was saying that. No, that's and those stats are for both years. OK, well, then there was also Von Miller being like this, guys making the craziest throws I've ever seen in my life at practice. Yeah. And the finger guns and the double finger.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

So you're right, we're reassessing we're gathering information at the time had like three of those eight touchdowns in one game right now. Right now the main culprit is Pat Shurmur. The second main culprit is the altitude weather and the third is not look good and calls Vic Fangio and he's not used to he's not used to the snow.

But Fangio also, he's in a bad division, big he's in a very competitive, very tough, very he has to play the chiefs twice. Vic Fangio, such a good fucking defensive coach.

And he's not a good head coach, but man, that guy he like I'd give anything to have him back, like defend everyone should want him as a defensive coordinator. He'll get he'll get another job because the the the Broncos got blown out today, but they weren't that good on offense.

Like they weren't the you know, Patriots had two hundred yards passing and they had one hundred yards running. It wasn't like the chiefs. Lit them up, they just had some special teams, defensive plays that made it a huge fucking win, right? No, he's he's a great defensive coach, but he's just I don't know why John Elway thought that he was going to be like the guy to lead them.

I think he just kind of thought it was the CICIG while everybody else. Everyone. Well, there are no more Sean McVay assistant coaches to interview. Yes. I'm going to get this old guy from Chicago.

Yes. All right. Football theoretically happen today, but it was not. Yeah, we all agree. We need to be falling snow. Yeah.

We need to do whatever we can to climate change to get snow football to actually have. Yes. Yes.

All right. Wrapping up. We have two games left. Weirdly, they're they're kind of linked. Hank is sitting up in his way. So we'll start with the forty Niners.

Patriots, forty Niners. Thirty three Patriots, six thirty one team's pass on Cam Newton. We saw a lot of those tweets in September. Seems like we don't see as many now. Hank Cam Newton went nine for fifteen. Ninety eight yards, three interceptions.

He's recovering from a virus that's killed hundreds of thousands of American lives. And he's playing the game two weeks after having.

OK, and what would you say if he really hasn't looked all that great passing the ball except for the Seahawks?

I mean, Pat brought this point up to me earlier and it really, you know, turn the light on in my brain. One of the side effects of Korona is having foggy brain.

Yeah. So he's got long wrona.

He's got the long wrona and where, you know, a situations where he might just be symptomatic. No, he's got the long Kocho copycat, but he's asymptomatic and he had it right. Well, you can be asymptomatic and then two weeks later you can still got it symptoms.

Sometimes that's the biggest symptom is not having one.

OK, got it. I know he's great.

He's been throwing weird when he throws it just doesn't look like it looks strange.

It's very strange. Mechanics like he's going like overhand like. Have you ever seen somebody throw an axe or a hatchet.

He is throwing it really hard at people's feet. Yeah.

Now I think we should say Bortles that's where on that. I like that too to defend Cam.

I'm not directly defending Cam but indirectly defending Cam covid. The Patriots defense was terrible like that. Should get criticism as well. Like Cam Newton wasn't good. Oh there was a patriots.

It shouldn't be all about Cam but it's a lot more fun to make it all about.

Well he doesn't have like obviously he doesn't have weapons. It's going to be about Cam anyway because one, he's a former MVP, went to a Super Bowl high profile guy, too.

He's on a one year contract. So like the future and where he fits in is always going to be a conversation.

It's funny that you talk about the balls that go like straight into his shipmates. He's been thrown. It's it's weird. He releases it like above his head and then the ball. It seems like the ball has more gravity coming out of Cam Newton's hands where just like it goes down, it's alarming.

You know what it is?

It's it's almost like it would be like a trick, you know, like the trick. Golf balls are trick football where one one side of it is weighted. Yeah.

That's what it looks. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. You're right. When he releases at the front, the nose is already pointing down. It's, it's, I think they have those footballs in practice.

Those are the ones that Tom Brady left over that he uses to like work on his motion and then he just accidentally used them in the game.

Yeah, it does look weird. He also doesn't have that many weapons on offense. I'll give him that.

So what's what is the prognosis?

What is prognosis mean, what's the diagnosis? Well, what do you think the the what's the diagnosis of the problem and what is the solution here?

We are as well.

Our team is looks like asked are you talking cheek's the solution is butthole you tongue in cheek cheeks. Yeah. Just ask Jesus Big Sean ass as an ass as I did not expect this out of you.

OK, but I'll be honest with you. Ass is a generous description of what you saw today is last week. Yeah. And yeah. Last week. Yeah.

And the covid game against the chiefs which we said it was just because of covid once gameplay is the way to beat them. Now Nacho's not so sure.

I think it's more straight buty than it is. Here's where it like I bet on the Patriots today because I just like, you know, Belichick, he's a system coach, but I think that this is right where we want them.

No, this is actually like the first time you got to be like take a step back, like, OK, so we can't just beat Belichick here.

I mean, like, do the players do matter?

You can't just beat Belichick, our coach, someone when Cam Newton is throwing balls into people's shins, we need to win two out of the next four games.

And you have the bills, the Jets, the Ravens and the Texans.

Yeah, you can do that. Yeah. You went to of those four, three and three out of four of them were back in the playoffs. I'm feeling great. That's where I'm at. OK, all right.

So there you gave yourself some homework, ready to go. People always say the whole Belichick gets rid of a player one season too early rather than one season. I don't think that he actually does it that often. But this is what it looks like when he actually does do that. Like with Tom Brady.

Yeah, this was the one season where it's like I would not I would not like to have Tom Brady back.

I would. But it's one of those things where there's just so much more that goes into that. It's not like as simple as like, oh, if we you know, let's sign Tom Brady.

There's just so much like history and like clearly Antonio Brown thing like that was an issue like Tom Brady wanted Antonio Brown in the Patriots, Kraft and Belichick like stood the ground or like fuck that were cutting them. Now Antonio Brown's on the Buccaneers.

Like, it's clearly goes more into it than just straight up, like the Patriots wanting Tom Brady as their quarterback.

There was much more of a power struggle and it like it made sense.

I don't know. I don't feel like that. I'm not I'm not like sitting here like I wish we had Brady, obviously. I wish Brady. But like, I understand that it just wasn't realistic given the circumstances of the team.

I'd like to give respect to the San Francisco 49ers offensive line. I feel like they get like their tight ends. Obviously, like Kittel, the fullback, like Jimmy G gets talked about a lot. The receivers are good. Their offensive line is the shit. Their offensive line is really good. And when you watch the Niners play, it seems like every position on offense kind of like has they kind of look like offensive linemen a little bit. The way that they block and like run, they all kind of get like great technique in everything.

They don't, like, get low there.

I don't know. People always talk about hips. I don't really know what a hip is, but I feel like all their hips are sunk to like proper leverage on offense and they're just all blocking. Everybody comes in and it's just an incredible coach.

And for NFL fans that are maybe a little younger, who don't remember Mike Shanahan's like heyday in Denver, this is essentially what it was in that he had Jeff Wilson Junior, who ended up getting hurt, which looked pretty bad, undrafted free agent from North Texas. He had seventeen carries for one hundred and twelve yards, three TDs. He gets hurt, Michael. I don't even know hasty, hasty, undrafted free agent from Baylor comes in nine rushes for fifty seven yards.

That was Mike Shanahan. Like you just put a guy in. Doesn't matter. He'll just be a runner. You you'll fucking how many running backs are they gone through? Like, I feel like it's going to be like six or so.

They get an injured running back every week and like so they just plug in all the injuries and everything that's going on in the fact that think about how bad the 49ers looked against the dolphins three weeks ago and to win on Sunday against Rams to go into Foxboro when this they need a lot of credit. They feel like they're back on track. But, yeah, the Patriots, I don't know, like, you just can't beat Belichick for Belichick anymore. It's a weird feeling to be like, oh, so Belichick isn't going to just he's going to lose three in a row.

OK, yeah. I guess it does matter who's playing and their defense is the defense stunk today very bad.

I don't I mean, I'm look at the schedule right now. How many yards? On one hand it's like, hey, welcome to the club. Yeah.

Pat, you've had a lot of field. You've had Telopea for at the end of October. This is what everybody else sucks, right? Don't feel good.

Well, it's not a normal field. It's not normalcy doesn't sound normal season. Your star players don't taken hours. It was hilarious. Just give it back in a couple of weeks. You know, Wisconsin loses a couple of games, like you'll understand my pain. Hmm. It's sad that you're lashing out like that. I'm not. I'm I'm trying to help you understand where I'm at. And you're looking at me like I took a shot at you.

It's a fact. You're a star quarterback also. I was covered. It sucks. And then when he comes back with Foggy Brain and he's not throwing five touchdowns in a game, you're going to be like, wait, what happened?

Yeah. All right.

OK, so next game box. Forty five, Raiders 20. Tom Brady laid it up. I don't know everyone I was I like watching the Buccaneers. I enjoy watching the Buccaneers and Gronk, not Gronk is. That's all he's got. I feel like Gronk put on two and a half pounds every single week consistently. And now he's so good. He's looking good. Yeah.

Looking like old game right now. This is this is I mean, everyone has spoken a million times over how Tom Brady is like the greatest quarterback and he is incredible.

But the little things that end of the first half was why Tom Brady, Tom Brady and everyone else is not.

You know what I mean? Because they get the ball with like two and a half minutes left. He ran off the perfect amount of time to get into field goal range. Take the one shot that ended up being a touchdown was an incredible pass and catch. But if he doesn't get it, he still gets another shot and then he gets a field goal. Yeah. And it's like that's why Tom Brady is Tom Brady and other teams will you'll see them just absolutely shit down there, their pants in end of half.

And of course, end of game situations. He's done it so much. He was so calm and cool. And it was like, OK, this is exactly the amount of time we need to take off the clock so they don't get the ball back and we can have a chance to score here. Best case seven, worst case three. And then you do the double score and they might not have gotten the ball to start the half. But like, that's that's the difference.

I, I am a little bit concerned about the Bucs after this. Because of Antonio Brown. Yeah, because of him. So I actually think Antonio Brown. I think he's insane. I think he's like a total nutjob job. What gives you that?

And ideally, like, you're right, there is something going on with Tom Brady and Antonio Brown. I think he I think Tom Brady wants to go into business with Antonio Brown. I think he's going to be like involved in TV twelve moving forward, like Antonio Brown. Brady was like, I so you get your dick sucked by China Trump in your gym.

Yeah, that seems like a cool feature we could add to the TV, but like he seems like he's involved in his weird Tom Brady universe with Antonio Brown where he's getting like, what's his name, Tony Robbins to like, go give him pep talks and convince him and brainwasher Antonio he got. Yeah. Wow.

Tony Robbins is like talking to Antonio Brown being like, yeah, here's what you need to do to unlock. It's like Shalal except you all of a sudden I'm going to shake your hand. You're going to want to pay all the people that work for you. Yes.

Yeah, there's some there's some weird shit going on with Tom Brady and Antonio Brown. And I don't think Bruce Arians doesn't like Antonio Brown. He said like pretty clearly back in March that he does not want him on his team. He's like that guy's diva. Like I said, some pretty like Bruce Arians after three cockatiels type stuff about it. Right. And now all of a sudden, Tom Brady wants him. So he's going to let them in.

Bruce Arians didn't like him when he was in Pittsburgh. Yes. He's not going to like him now. No, he's definitely going to. I think that the the Bucs might things might get blown up real fast.

And I don't know, though, Tom Brady has that power of like, yo, if you want to buy in, we could win. All right. Just if everybody agrees for the season to become part of the right, like Bruce Arians, right?

No, I really do think that he has that ability. Yeah.

And the Bruce Arians I don't know if you saw the coalition that had nothing to do with Tom Brady. Him the Jim had been working on it for a while.

There's no chance that I'm just excited to hold our good friend Stephen changed his feet to the fire, making him answer for all of Antonio Brown's actions.

Scumbag Yeah. Say something nice about the Raiders. They actually it was a four point game and they did lose the right side of their offensive line to injury and ejection during the game. And it kind of changed from that point on. So I don't know.

The Raiders are just I don't I don't know what to make of them.

Here's something nice about the Raiders. I'm stealing this from the announcer in the game. But Derek Carr has good balance when he runs. Yeah. So oftentimes when Derek Carr runs, he doesn't fall over. Yeah, this is not something that you can say about every quarterback.

And he also really takes his time before he runs. I think he waits for as many options to happen before. He's like, you know what, he goes through his progressions. Yes.

He's really good at taking his time, making sure that he doesn't have a receiver open. And then if he doesn't get sacked, then he'll start running in perfect balance.

Yep, it's true. All right.

So Alec Ingold, their fullback, he stopped leaping over people and now he's just running through people like he knows that he should be doing. Yup. Yup. Also true.

So good job. Raiders losing by a million. But whatever that game was a little bit closer than like it was a twenty five point game, but it was a four point game going in the fourth. Right. So it kind of fell apart really quick. Yeah. The bucks are a problem. The Bucs are officially a problem. What do you did you have like is there such a thing as a baby moon?

I've heard about this. We're like people do have a vacation before they like our last time together.

Before we did. No, this is baby moon people. This this is the guy. Go on. Yes. Yeah.

You might want to take care of the cats. You have to get somebody pregnant. Yeah, I have a dog. No, Billy. I actually had a really high idea of doing like a sketch where it's a dude who is like a terrible GM of his own life, and so he keeps trading future picks for current like situations where so he'll like hit up his fiancee being like, I don't want to have a really big, like, boys weekend.

Like, I'm going to go watch the games like week eight of the NFL. Like, let's just pretend it's my bachelor party.

So he just trades ways. Bachelor party. Yeah. And then, like, he just keeps going down the line where he's like, you know, for just like the most like quick hit stuff. Yeah. Like oh like let's like just pretend it's the day I get a raise when I'm 45.

Yeah. Like I really want to watch week 12 with my guys at some point and then he gets to like he's like twenty seven years old and he's just, he has no draft capital left.

He's like I'm fucked with. The last thing you can do is like, OK, I'll trade you my entire funeral. No one comes back, you know, I don't even have one.

Just like, like my body on fire like or like let's pretend this weekend was our seventieth wedding anniversary.

Yeah. He's just trading everything. He's Sean McVay. He's like, I'm going to trade it all for win now. Yeah. Which we now is literally just I want to go eat wings with the dudes. Yeah.

And watch college football. It's Taco Tuesday where you get you got beer towers for 999. So instead of having a funeral, can I just go down there and get hammered to 1:00 a.m.. Yes, that's actually a pretty good idea. Yeah. All right.

It's yeah, it's like a sketch, but also everyone's life. But yeah. So should we talk baseball real quick, real quick, Clayton Kershaw, MVP, World Series MVP. Why not just you know, it would have been so awesome if they had stolen home on them tonight.

Oh, my God. That came for was incredible. Like one of the best World Series games that no one watched. I watched it. No, I know.

I'm just saying, like, it doesn't feel like on a macro level, but, yeah, it's it's it was awesome.

Like a million lead changes and that there's something about there's something about whether it's a shot in basketball or throw the alligator arms coming out at the worst possible time because that throw I think who's Turner Turner made the throw and he just alligator armed.

Well Turner cut off.

Yeah. And then he alligator arms the throw to home where he like he started the throw and then he thought twice about making the throw and I just there's something about the alligator arms.

I think there were four errors on that last play. It was incredible.

And then Kelly Kenley Jansen like Dude Little League, he was standing in the worst possible spot. If he's backing them up, they probably go to extra innings.

Yeah. Where he was standing on a plate. Right. He he's just he was watching the play happen. You got to know where you're going to be. Before the play happened, he was the kid in Little League who, like you, have to put in right field because he's going to sit down and like, pick the grass. Yeah. In the middle of the play, it was that was an awesome into the game.

It reminded me a lot of Luis Gonzales. Remember, back in like 2000, 2001 when the duck starts. Yeah, yeah.

Yeah. Great ending. Yes. Oh yeah. Tuno, Clayton Kershaw. I think he's going to be. Here's what I'm hoping they do. I'm hoping that well no, he's not going to pitch on Tuesdays, game six, maybe bullpen Wednesday, game seven. Yeah.

Yeah. If it goes seven. But he was. Yeah he's Tuno. Why not. I feel like they'll give it to him. Right. Why not. Fuck it Mookie.

Earlier in the series. Yeah. Shit. All right. Well that's our baseball talk. It's been a great series. I would highly recommend people watch it. Joe Buck's doing a wonderful job.

He's doing a great job. They closed the roof on him tonight so he couldn't complain about a flyover.

There's some really funny fans there was doing the fucking do doing a suck it.

He looked like he was fifty years old, wearing a Hawaiian shirt. That guy was living. Oh, I don't know who's going to these games, but I fucking love you.

Think it'd be fun to go to a game right now. I was thinking about this yesterday. Like would it be fun to go to not not World Series game. Would it be fun to go to an NFL game that had like 10000 people?

Yes. You think so? Yes. You traffic would be sweet. Everything would be sweet.

You could just sit in your own fucking section. Everything would be sweet.

And these World Series games, like the fans, I don't think any of them have jobs, but they look like they're having a great time like they probably do.

Yeah.

They every time they show someone, it's some older dude with the Hawaiian shirt. I mean, he literally was an old dude, Winshaw doing Suck My Dick. And then the guy the night before you threw the to the glove on. Yeah. And then the the shirt. Nice swing bitch. Yeah, that's right. Yeah. What a great girl. You don't get those in baseball audiences, especially not in the postseason because the tickets are like five thousand dollars.

Somehow this World Series, the entire fan base, the entire stadium is just full of like everyone's everyone's cool.

Divorced dad.

They know. Yeah I know. It has a lot of uncles. Yeah. Baseball. You never get neutral sites like these fans don't really care who wins.

I think there's real fans are there are some Dodgers fans for sure. Yeah. A lot of news. There's there for a good time.

All right. Let's get to Don and then we will wrap up with some football guy of the week and who's back of the week.

Before we get to Deon Sanders, want to talk to you about our great friends over at three CZI three. She is the leader and hemp derived. Cannabinoid products, all the products are formulated by a biochemist. They're made in the USA with USA grown hemp. When we released their Delta eight products, they were the first federally legal THC products sold in the USA since Prohibition started almost 90 years ago. Delta eight is a federally legal version of THC. Its effects are a perfect hybrid of CBD and Delta nine.

In other words, it makes you feel awesome. That's I can tell you what they want me to read off this piece paper, but it's easier if I just tell you you feel awesome when you use Delta eight from three feet. Their THC is incredible. You're going to have the similar buzz that you get to Delta Nine, but you don't get the laziness, anxiety, the paranoia or the mental fogginess. You feel more out, outgoing and more active with increased confidence and almost none of the anxiousness or paranoia that you get with Delta Nine.

You feel great. It's awesome if you want to go to sleep, if you want to take a ticket, Gumee, to just knock the edge off on your couch over a weekend, if you want to just chill out, just melt into your lazy boy recliner. The best way to do it is to just pop a little bit of three cheese Delta, eight THC. They're not just the best in the Delta eight industry. They invented the damn industry.

It's going to have you feeling functional and clearheaded instead of lazy and paranoid. You feel great. That's the best thing I could tell you. You feel great. Start off slow, take a half one, see how it hits and then you can kind of amp up from there after you figure out what your tolerance to the three Key Delta eight stuff is. So check it out at 3Com. That's 3Com. Use promo code PMT, check out. Get five percent off your order.

You have to be twenty one to purchase. Just go to three chee dotcom, get some delta eight vapes, gummies, tinctures and oils. It can even make your own homemade edibles. Those check them out at three dotcom. Now here's Deon Sanders.

All right. It is Monday. So we have our favorite coach, Coach Prime.

Talk to us ten, fifteen minutes about the NFL Sunday, week seven. Where do you want to start? Dónde we could start with the Falcons being a dumpster fire. We could start with the Cowboys being even bigger of a dumpster fire. We could start with, what else? A Patriots dumpster fire. Yeah, or Tom Brady being incredible at age 43. Where do you want to start? What stuck out to you?

Let's start let's start with the Patriots. I know Dan is just just taking a dump right now. Like he has to be furious. I didn't see that one coming. I didn't see it coming. The Patriots aren't as good as some thought they were. I didn't think they were win the division anyway. I think I still think Buffalo is going to do that. But what they did today. Was horrible. I've never been able to associate that word with the Patriots over the last decade, but that today was horrible.

And so, I mean, I agree it was a very bad game. What, though, is the fix? Because Cam Newton and there was a lot of talk early on of, you know, how did all these teams pass up on Cam Newton? If you take out the Seattle game, which every Seattle game becomes a track, meet up and down.

He hasn't looked that great passing the ball. He's look good running the ball at times.

So what is the fix? Is it mechanics? Is it he's not fully healthy. Like where do you see it going to try to get this back on track for them?

Well, first of all, let's start with the defense. That's the defense is a glimpse, a glimpse of what it once were. And Cam is the kind of quarterback that thrives on a good defense that they could control the clock and run the football with his read options and all of that. When Cam has to sit back in the pocket and throw you back into the game, that's not who he is.

He's not going to be successful. I've never heard no one say consistently, hey, man, boy, camp is just eight is alive throwing the ball. I really hadn't heard that associated with Cam Newton.

And I heard a couple of people use the word to toss that you were out there about the Patriots saying they've never seen New England team play with this little effort as they did this week.

Yeah, I don't. So it's it's tough for me to, like, watch a professional football team on TV, you know, like from the outside when they're not giving a hundred percent effort and when they are from your mindset, like, do you actually think that, like, maybe they've just taken their foot off the gas, maybe there's something mentally going on?

I just think it's the level of play on the defensive side of the ball offense as well. But really on defense, like, that's what we see consistently with the Cowboys, like, oh, come on, guys, you've got to try a little more than that. Like when you start seeing long runs and you start seeing like explosion plays, what role? We understand you can have an explosion play, which means twenty yards or more of offensive play.

I understand that with the passing game. But when I was a running game, when the run has explosions that don't make it sense. That means guys are not getting to the ball, guys are not doing their jobs, guys are not filling the gaps. And it's just consistently is the kind of things that we see for the Cowboys, not necessarily the Patriots, but we saw it today.

So if you look at those two teams of patriots in the Cowboys, you've been on some pretty good teams in the past. At what point does Dion Sanders say it's time for the players only meeting? We're going to we're going to have ourselves a little chat minus the coach like his. Now is now the time to be pushing that panic button?

The Cowboys. You did it last week. They should have broke the glass because this is a case of emergency and the Patriots should be doing it Monday morning. They should be doing it tomorrow because somebody needs to stand up and talk and take control, because what they did today at home, oh my God, it was bad. But I'll tell you what, on the flip side of that, the 49ers looked like the 49ers that we saw at the end of the season before they went to the Super Bowl.

That's who they look like with all the injuries that they have. They still look great.

Yeah, no, it's incredible. I mean, Kyle Shanahan is such a good coach. The fact that they're able to do that with all those injuries. So the players only meeting, how many can you only do it once a year or could you get two? Can you sneak in the second?

You know, you can sneak in a second. You can sneak in a second. You can. What I don't like is the leaders only meeting because if the leaders were leading, it wouldn't take that.

I don't think that yeah. I don't think that a leader would have a leaders only meeting because why are you going to where are you going to exclude people responsibility? Jim Boyland had his leadership committee. That's true. And that worked out really well. That was a bad. So. All right.

So so in a players only meeting, can everyone talk or is it like, oh, OK.

So explain it to us, because we've never been in a players only meeting, obviously.

OK, it's like the dogs would. OK, I'll just give you history. Suppose we had a players only meeting in Dallas, so Troy has the authority to get up and say so Mike Irvin has the authority to get up and take them in as well. And he probably was a guy like myself, Darren Woodson, Charles Haley could get up and say, everybody else got to sit down. Shut up.

Mm hmm. Right. So unless there's that guy, there's really not known, but he works his butt off and he has the respect of the team. He could possibly say something.

Have you ever been in a players only meeting that, like, turned the entire season around where it actually worked? No, yeah.

Yeah. And it's and now is there is there one guy in the players only meeting that, you know, you got your eyes on? You're like, this guy is going to go just snitched to the coach.

He's going to tell everyone, he's going to tell the coaching staff exactly what's said here, not because good teams, you don't have that that guy because you get rid of. Yeah. Like he got to go. I feel like you make sure he's gone.

I feel like Charles Haley was a good person to have on your side and players. You probably just like walk out there naked and start body slamming people, did you not, Charles?

The naked part? I don't know how you knew that, but yes, the naked part is authentic.

I mean, there's been like books written. A big nude guy. Yeah. So like he was like when he's in the locker room, he would only basically put on pants if he was walking out of the locker room. Right. Yeah.

Chalta anything you could think of. Anything Gameday. Anything you could think of. Charles, did you know that like we know everything about those cowboys.

Are you saying we don't know. Like if we were like, oh yeah. Remember Michael Irvin's White House. You mean like how do you know about that now?

You know, you know a lot of stuff, but you don't know about everything that happened because that was before the plan. That was before me. I mean, I wasn't there in those days, right?

Yeah, right now I just Googled Charles Haley when the first thing that came up was an article called Charles Haley The Last Naked Warrior.

It's amazing. What a great title. All right. So the Falcons, I mean, what do you even say? Like they're inventing new ways to lose. You say this every week, but that was Todd Gurley goes down and the Falcons win this game instead. They're now one in six.

They should be four and three, essentially, like they have to know, wouldn't you say the Falcons, like they should they should be looking to trade some of these guys. Right. Who who's going to want them?

Julio Jones. You don't want them. No, no, the country is the French country. That's what I'm saying, kind of got to start to make some some tough decisions, but I guess they don't know who's going to be in charge of the team next year. So who would have the authority to trade anybody right now? Arthur Blank. Well, I'm pretty sure I'm pretty sure they have a handle on it. This is what they got to start concerning themselves with.

The quarterback, the quarterback and the owner has a real relationship and they got to figure out what direction they're going to go, because when fans turn on you and start saying, hey, man, that guy has to go, you're going to have a problem. But he's attached to the hip with the owner. I'm not saying that it's Matt Ryan's turn to go, but that's the first thing oftentimes people blame is the quarterback because that's been the most consistent thing there.

Yeah, yeah.

No, it's true. And it's always it's always interesting when it feels like a franchise player has a true friendship with an owner because it can get messy.

Right. I think they have more than the friendship. What about Pittsburgh, Tennessee? Do we talk about that game for us? Thank you. Well, my takeaway was I still think that the Titans are really good the way that they came back in the second half. Like, I think that either one of these teams, like any given Sunday, could beat the other. I didn't walk away being like, damn Pittsburgh, like they have their number.

Your assessment is 100 percent accurate. And I think this one, in spite of it being today. How many times do you win the game, the quarterback, those three picks he was on won like he was feeling himself. He was old school, Big Ben, like, how many?

That never is. No way possible. Like, it's like unwritten rules in football. If a quarterback goes to pick someone is almost impossible to win. And if you get a punt return and kick return all special teams touchdown against you is no way you win it. That rarely ever happens. And they won the day in spite of not on a great note, I cannot believe, but I can. And I'm happy that Baker played well. I'm happy.

OK, I'm happy you brought that up because that was going to be my my last question because Odell gets hurt. Very sad. We don't want to see everyone loves watching Odell Beckham play. You know, there's hot takes about him, but I'd rather watch him play than not. Baker then goes just insane in that game. What are you going to eat? A little crow for me. What are you going to do now?

They played all of you know, they were playing the Bengals. Yeah. You know, OK, it's going to be OK. So let's not let's not burst our hands. Clapping Let's not make our hands red. Clapping for Baker. But I'm happy that he showed us something. I really am. I'm you don't sound happy because he when he when he plays well, my guys play well. When he plays well, my guys get you know, they get the ball, they get credit.

And now you see that you got guys to throw at you. You just got to do the job well.

And he played well. He had like twenty one consecutive completions. He started out like shit, obviously, you know, he threw the interception. Yeah, but but but still you should eat a little bit of crow just a little bit.

A little bit. You guys put a little crow in your mouth. It's tiny. Just just one strike. The nails, the toenails. Twenty one completions. How many went over ten yards. Yeah.

Oh see, I knew he weren't. I knew you were giving Baker full credit. I knew it. I saw that was not real.

I saw one that went over ten yards and it went to the end zone and it won the game at the very end of the game. Did you see that one?

Oh oh oh levitates is one of the funniest things happened when I watched the video in the way you were turning around looking, you knew something was up. That was the funniest part of the video, you know, the way you looked then turned around before it even went down. Right. So if I messed up when I said my website, I messed up. Yeah, yeah.

I was like, you know, Deon tried to dunk on me in the office and he called me in bighead over. He's like, let me get a picture for my website. And what do you mean your website? You mean barstool sports back on that website. Yeah. Yeah. And then you try to talk on me. I swatted you and then I mostue then I, I don't know if you saw the steel, the steel frame of me watching you.

You had your head in your hand away from it, bent over, running away away from it. And then I spiked the ball in your face.

I was in there with respect the ball in my face. But when you turned around, it flinched because, you know. So what's up? That was the I didn't flinch.

That's called reaction time. It's called keep in flow. It helps. Right. Right. And ready for anything. Sure. I like it.

I actually had one last question asked, Manning, are we are you going to let PFG and I go and recruit him for Jackson State? Because we will.

No, I don't I don't know if he'll be comfortable there. Injections. They would make them comfortable. I want you to make him comfortable, but I don't know if he would be OK. Well, I don't know. He grew up in an environment. Let us open. Let us recruit him. You know what? I'm going to put you guys on things that I know you could really attain. I don't think that's containable.

Put us in a position to succeed. Actually, wouldn't that be a wonderful moment for America if we could recruit Archie Manning to go play for Coach Prime at a historically black college?

But you got to understand that that's going to be hard, though, because it's a kid in my halls that my coaches are recruiting right now, that I want to play quarterback at the HPC unit I coached. OK, so you should give it.

So to set us up for success, you should let us recruit your son to play for you.

You know what? I tell you what, you guys gotta come up with five things that you can do to say that my son would want to call five white five things. And you guys got, trust me, what I saw the other night at the boxing thing. You guys got a lot of way to get it done. He does it. So personal number one.

Best reason to do it. You have offensive guru, future quarterback whisperer, producer of the accident change that's going to be giving you plays. So he's going to be putting some stuff in there all over your mind. Shay Shay has exploded my email already. We know. You know, just. Yeah, he he goes I'm using two of his plays this week as well. I'm going to take a chance and day they make it. He then.

Oh my God, he you're creating a monster. I'm rooting for them to fail. I just want you to know because he is I want him to be successful in life, but he's got to be gradual because if he gets too much too fast, he's going to rub all of our faces in.

It is good. I got some good stuff. He's going to clip this, goddammit. All right. We'll have to take this pass. We're going to take this out. All right, Coach. Well, thank you as always. We will see you next week. All right. Appreciate you guys. God bless you. Do not ever forget me again for the boxing match. We're not going to be free. OK, there we go. There.

We can't ever forget it. All right. Yeah.

Oh, OK.

Thanks, Dion. Let's get to our football guy of the week and we'll finish up the show with Who's Back Football Guy The Week presented by Phillips Norelco.

We choosing one winner a month. Your style made simple Phillips Norelco One Blade Do it again. TriMet hashtag tribute to win at Philips Norelco. We love the one blade and they are a great sponsor of our football guy.

The Week The Philips Rothko One Blade Football Guy, The Week Jake Hobb.

All right, guys, we're going to start off with Steelers offensive coordinator coordinator Randy Fitzner. He says you pronounce that correctly. It is Pfitzner. I was freaking out, trying to. I took like twenty minutes to find it out feet to dinner, feet, feet, feet, nerve feet in.

That's like. Yeah, Rex Ryan's wet dream.

How many? How many? How do you spell it? F I see NYR, but it's Fitzner.

Vikner, OK, it's like David Fincher. We're going to call him Vikner. So what's the deal with David Vikner? He said he hasn't gotten a haircut, gone to a gas station or restaurant or grocery store since March 16th. Wow.

So he's a huge lib, cock oriented artist, like the complete opposite. Just a mountain man. I mean, maybe survivalist and had had an apocalypse bunker that has come in very handy over the last year.

I wrote about it in the football blog. The first half of the streak is due to on circumstances out of his control. But after summer, I think we've all gone to.

Yeah, yeah, right. Yeah, yeah. He just liked it. Right. He liked being alone but I don't know, probably sucks for his wife. How do you survive. He's like, oh, sick Bragge. You haven't done anything around the house. Yeah. She's like, no, I can't, I can't confirm that. He probably left. He probably like coronavirus hit. And he was like, guess what, honey, you can't take out the trash, can't do the dishes, can do anything.

I think that if you're a real football guy, you would have just stayed at the office the entire time. Yeah. Like, I don't know when I'm going to be able to get back in if I leave. So I'm just going to kind of make this my my little guy next. Yes.

Stephen F. Austin had Coach Kolby carful. I saw this. He took his shirt off and celebrated with his team immediately after his lumberjacks had a big win on Saturday.

It's a beautiful thing. It was great because if you see the screengrab, you're like, is this just a random dude who ran from the stands? And then seems like that's my coach. Yeah. What do you mean that's your coach? Oh, that's a strength. No, that's my head coach. The head coach.

Sometimes when us guys just get excited about stuff, the first thing that we think of doing it just taking off clothes. Yeah. For some reason, just like it brings you in tune with your happiness a little bit.

A couple of high school football teams in Michigan, they played each other and a big time mud bowl over the weekend. I saw this on Friday.

I didn't I saw the picture of it. Explain it to me in like, exquisite detail. Dirty, muddy, slow down.

Yeah, you couldn't make out the numbers because there was mud. So I turned it around. You know, Beckham's wet dream. Yeah. OK, so some study on that right now. Sloppy, sloppy.

Was it slippery, squishy, slippery, squishy, gooey, moist, moist. And he rocks in that mud. That's such a rock in the mud. Yeah.

All right. OK. And then we're ending things with Bills fan. Mike just called a pilot who drew a Buffalo Bills logo in the air over the team's stadium and surrounding areas. I mean, this guy this guy has to win this week. If you look at the pattern that he flew in the air, first of all, the attention to detail, he did include the buffalo penis in it, which people don't talk. I'm on a one man awareness raising wrecking crew to just let people know that the buffalo does have a penis.

And the logo he has that he made, like every single sharp turn, including some has worn sharp pointed out, like he risked his life to execute a turn this sharp to draw the logo just perfectly above western New York. It's unbelievable. In fact, when I first saw it, I thought it was fake. I was like, there's no way.

If you guys like prison, Paul on here, who was breaking down like the pilot maneuvers and loose change.

If you got Paul Watson to look at this, he'd be like, there's no way that that an untrained pilot would ever be able to pull off this turn without, like, thirty years in a jet.

All right. So football guy, the week Phillips Norelco votes full circle. One blade, by the way, then won it last week. Oh, it was random when we did this podcast.

And then he came out after us on Twitter. Now we know his name. OK, we go.

Yes. Oh, is he a few covid guy? Yes. Yeah. Your perspective. Perfect. Perfect. OK, thank you, Jake.

Great job. Philanthropical one blade football guy the week. Go vote. Hank, you want to start with who's back of the week. Sure is. It will be my who's back the week is.

Yeah. Why he fought this weekend. Moved on to twenty nine you know, and then he retired and it came out football guy that had a broken foot the whole time.

Wow.

And he did it for his dad who passed away recently. That's why he's retiring. Right. Said he can't. This was his dad but he won it for him too. Right. Right.

His dad passed away in the past year or so. And then so he was like, this might you know, I can't do it again without my dad. I'm upset.

He's I believe he's such a good fighter. But also, he's his hats are just the must see TV. You tune in and see what kind of hat he's going to wear afterwards.

That and I don't know if you guys ever seen the clips of him when he talks to his opponents as he beats the fuck out of them. It's the scariest thing in the world when he's, like, just smashing someone's face and he's like, I deserve this, like, title shot. I deserve this. I'm the one like you. Sorry I had to do this, but I have to do this. I'm the one. Yeah.

And he's such a good fighter that he's fighting like the best competition. But there just hasn't been anyone that can challenge him. Yeah. Really at all.

What economists say is like, yeah, he's like respect. He's like I don't get my ass kicked in. Good performance team.

Kobe, I will carry on respecting the as your father again. Also to you and family. Yours sincerely MacGregor's. Wow.

That's pretty nice. That's very classy. And I think that means MacGregor's next fight will be a title fight. Yeah. And McGregor again doesn't have to get his ass kicked by Habib because the way Habib kicks your ass, it's got to be the worst way. It's the most. He's a snake. The whole leg and foot stomping Steph too. I'm like you realize very quickly step into the ring that you've made a grave mistake with your entire life catching up to that point.

When I saw when I saw this crazy was the one of him in the the river. It was like an ice cold river. Yes. Swimming upstream. And he was just fine.

Do you think you can catch him? No, if he was a fish, I could be able to see if he was. You can kill when I say snake, I mean it in a very positive way, in the fact that he just will he, like, strangle the life out of his opponents and make him tap. And it's awesome. What are you looking at, Hank? Yes. Tushar 50. Whicher, who's back my who's back of the week, is the Ciano man.

You know, Rucker's is back. Rutgers got a big win. They are bowl eligible. I kind of told everyone who listens to the show on Friday that was going to happen every year.

Well, I did. I told everyone I love Rutgers, Rutgers of Indiana.

Really, they just have one more win to hit the the season over which I did take on Rutgers because I'm a believer in this young man, at least for a short period of time. I believe in the sentiment. So it's good to see him back. And then my other who's back of the week is another coach who we love that we haven't seen around in a while. Sue Jackson. Yeah. Jackson went on the radio in Cleveland and discusses Baker Mayfield.

He said, I think Baker is not playing in a system, in my mind that showcases his talent and ability. So if there's one person that knows exactly how not to showcase Baker's ability, I would take it from Hue Jackson.

Do you see who also is a big time like GM reply guy? I saw some of those floating around. Oh, really? People like giving him shit. And he's he's a big like, you know, I'm praying for you. I'll think about you. It's sad that you have to you have to belittle yourself in your family by trolling on the Internet type of guy. He's trying to improve people like one passive aggressive commentator.

He's the last human on earth that thinks you can change someone's opinion on. Yeah, bless your heart. I'm going to try to fix that so the article doesn't have to explain it to people.

That's all I got. Explain to him and DMS and on Twitter and they'll totally see my side. The article I read about him was very funny, maybe unintentionally, because it quoted him as saying the alpha male baker's not playing as well as he thinks he should or anyone thinks that he should, said Jackson, who went three thirty six and one as head coach of the Browns before being fired midway through the twenty eighteen season. So yeah, I'm here for more Hue Jackson like going back, doing the whole like talk show circuit again and saying how Kevin Stefanski is screwing up the Browns by, by having them at five and two or whatever.

Like I could deal with a little bit more hue. Jackson my life, he's really, he is prime. I really want to be relevant.

And oh, I remember when it was someone who was like over under like five wins that you would get if you or like, you wouldn't win a game, you went to the Browns or something back to the Browns.

And he was like, ha, I won six games when I was with the Raiders, like as a bracket, you know, like you like that means you were six and ten, but you also won three games.

Yeah. As the coach of the Brown. Yes.

He's he's become like the John Kasich of sports where you just like has stunk at everything that he does. But he goes back on the air saying that he was an expert when he was there doing it, which I mean, if you look around sports media in general, that's that's the game. Absolutely.

So more Hue Jackson making a fool of himself. All right. My who's back is having something nice and then having it crushed. So, Grandma, Friday night, do you guys watch Wisconsin quarterback? He was electric. Twenty four, twenty one, five touchdowns. Pretty much like I was losing my mind, like, hey, we have a real quarterback. And then it came out today that he tested positive for the cocoa and the Big Ten in their attempts to get football back, made the rule that if you test positive for the cocoa, it's for 21 days.

So just as I was like, this is going to be incredible, we have we're passing it down the field.

Well, who are your next three games? Nebraska.

Someone else that will be. And then Michigan. OK, the backups are Chase Wolf. Purdue in the middle. Oh, man.

All right. You know what? Hold on. Timeout, timeout. I wanna say something nice about Purdue because Purdue and I have a rivalry where Purdue fans hate my guts. Purdue, I bet on Iowa. I thought because Jeff Brohm, Rondo Moore, both out. I was wrong. Purdue was very, very good against Iowa. That's a gutsy win. That's a decent team. And therein lies my very nice compliment about Purdue. I'll say this and I say a word about them.

You see, I have seventy five percent male. Yeah.

College. I guess I could never last for four years on your campus, but that takes a tremendous amount of intestinal fortitude.

You got shots? Yeah, no, I'm hoping it's a false positive, but I.

Who knows the big ten. This is where it all kind of falls apart with the Big Ten having these rules, like because they made these rules, dragging their feet, being like, all right, we'll come back. We we've got to be extra, extra cautious. And now 21 D makes no sense. It makes no sense. It's just an arbitrary number that sounds a little bit longer than most schools then. Fourteen. Yeah, yeah. Like, OK, what's longer.

It's more than one week. More than 14. Yeah. So I mean Nick Saban be covered in like nine hours. It was less than that. Yeah.

So I think grandma can probably play but whatever I'll, I will be going through it. Big cat.

That's true. He's got the brains right. That's right. You don't want to rush but it is Chase Wolf is the Wolf and Danny Vanden Boom.

Yeah. Great names. Dugs Nick. Chase, one hundred percent, real name, it's an event, it's a good literally translates for Chase Wolf. I don't know, Wiley Coyote. There you go, Chase Wolf and Danny Vandar boom. So, yeah, it's just perfect, Wisconsin that I had that moment where I was like, this is incredible. We have a real quarterback. And then he tested positive for the cocoa in a shortened season with this stupid 21 day rule.

So he's going to miss, like, half the season. Mm hmm. Great. Awesome. All right.

Wait, wasn't he in the same meeting rooms as the other quarterbacks? I have no idea how any of this works. It's fucking so I'll be tough if you guys just didn't have a quarter. Have you just run an entire like, what is that formation that we talked about with Warren Sharpe? Where was all fullbacks?

Yeah, we could we have that. We have the ability to do that literally translates to Ramsay. Bolton. They were. Yeah.

There you go. Hey guys, I understand that ref. Nice. And we. Yes.

Game of Thrones. Screamo thrown thrown Ronia timely throne. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. The throne. Yeah, yeah. Got squat. All right.

Do you want to do a who's back. Because Billy's not here. Jake.

Yeah I have two. Oh wow. Whoa oh. What kind of overachiever.

OK, hey first the early 2000s Phoenix Suns. Oh yeah.

Steve Nash, mastermind one Gafsa. Maya Stottlemyre. Yeah. Yeah.

I think he's got to something shot. Kyrie what's going on in his coaching staff.

Oh yeah. OK, so tell us who's on the coaching staff. Josimar and Steve Nash. Now there's others. Yeah. Like what.

The matter. Shawn Marion. Oh let's see. OK, Raja Bell would be good dã. I like that. Amar'e Stoudemire. They were a really fun team to watch. Yeah. They're fun because they got stuck by the Spurs.

They got the real time video game. Oh they kind of fucked themselves but it's more the Spurs versus Bruce Bowen being scumbag shock jock. Vonn was a first of all, I'm Brian Vonn was on the roster. Yeah, right. It was Bruce Bowen who is a fucking scumbag to the Suns and started out that, uh, I think it was I think it was where he shoved Steve Nash into the score table. Yeah. Yeah. I'm pretty sure that was yeah.

Yeah. That was born. But that's are also going to be doing like the alternating coaches thing. So really, it's just it's not Steve Nash heading it up.

We're going to get head coach Morris Stoudamire. Hopefully he will bring the wine Barth's to the Nets.

Yes, we must to win both cost. Well, I think it just it's as cheap as the wine.

So Franzia, who is the sponsor, that's the best way to do it, because prices range from anywhere from seventy five dollars, which will get you a simple thermal bath and aromatherapy and access to the relaxation area to five hundred and fifty dollars, which will get either red wine ritual.

There you go. And then you can sell your bath wine to all the simps out there.

Yeah. Oh Robert Orey. I think it was Robert Orie. Bruce Bowen was come back for other things.

Maybe he was just a pest, but Robert Murray was the was the person who did that. So they the basically stopped the sons from getting a title because of the stupid you can't leave the bench rule that was in place because one time Ron Artest went and beat the fuck out of a bunch of Pistons fans one time and then everyone had to change every rule. Oh, my other whose back is you were like four. Yeah, I know, it's crazy.

Recurring guest interests. Bilyana back on the directive.

Right, gentlemen. Great to see him back. It was bodies all healthy. Yeah. I'm glad he's safe. Yeah, I'm glad he's very healthy. The recurring us. Yeah.

I do not like him. I don't have a problem with Anders so I do. But he bothers me.

When you listen to more Scott Hansen, you realize that caecilians Scott cares.

Cecilio, both of them sounds like he's no angel. Scott cares. Scott cares about the gamblers out there. He cares about fans. He cares about telling people, not giving people false hope.

He cares their siano is just there to cash a paycheck. No, he's got other Gylfi does. Scott Hinson's only job is RedZone. It's literally his only job. He can't get anything else. I think he hosts a few NFL Network shows. I don't think so.

But then they brought those Dan Wheldon brought in when Selena was asked what was he was great. It was interesting. He's a person. Fresh air. Yeah. He he very clearly got some instructions saying like, don't say anything. Don't try to do this job better than. Yeah. Probably from Sicily.

Honestly, I was like, I mean, better not if you covered it, do this job better than a coffin. You spin your mouth. If you try to say anything I don't recall. Yeah, she is the ongoing thing.

I got to stick up for my fellow alums, Jake, at some point you just have to you have to be like, hey, call a spade a spade. Sometimes a guy screws up and Sicilian porn is a screw up.

No, no, no. We can't get mean. We got to go right now. That's not nice.

I mean, he said he's he's led me astray many a time. I've been mentioned the fucking coyote park. He missed being a gambling moment. Mentioned it. Just mention it.

OK, I think he does a great job. All right. It's a very tough he seems like a lot of crap. Oh, there we go. All right. We have had him on it.

Yeah. I don't actually personally hate him. I just he he drives me nuts.

And you know what, I it's one of those like it kind of makes me it kind of gives me a little extra something. I'll give him a backhanded compliment, give me extra something on Sunday to have that hate my heart. It's like so he keeps me, he gives me a sharp iron, sharpens iron.

If you associate somebody like if you watch a certain game and you end up losing your bet and he's the one that informs you that he loses, you end up carrying on some bad feeling towards him. Like if you're sick when you're like six or seven years old and you have the flu and you remember eating a certain food and then you can't have that food for the rest of your life without wanting to scream at it, that's what Big Cat goes through is a silly thing, right, for fucking him over on some bets when he was like fifteen years old.

It's good to have a foe every now and then.

Maybe it gives you some punch when you lose it. Correct. So you know what, Sebastiano?

You serve a great purpose for me. You give me someone that I can just project all my anger on to. And for that I thank you, sir. And let me know when your birthday is. I wish you happy birthday.

I'm happy you were born and happy back. All right, let's do numbers eight six eight eight fifty six seventeen seventeen.

The okot showed to me what would really have picked someone. Say something.

Billy would have had twenty six. Six, nine. Thirty six. I hope he gets it.

Twenty one knock on wood, who is close, I believe he lives really close to Jacob's right bullshit.

This is not do you have a job?

And in fact, I love you guys. Go ahead, do it.

You don't have anything. You have nothing. You you've. No.

And what is the name of one of do you have here. I'll send you I'll send you guys this picture. Boehner Well don't know.

Hey, hey. Here's the animal fat bukkake said to us, hey, you guys want to see a fucking huge dog? Boehner and I both said, no, absolutely not. This is we're not bestiality.

Freesias is one of those. Like, if I do not send it, do not know. We don't block you know, don't send your notes to FBI.

Don't send it. All right. Here's the funny animal fact. Qual fingerprints are so close to humans that they could taint crime scenes.

Fun fact. Wow. They also get chlamydia, right? They also get chlamydia because they fuck it. That's why their finger. Yeah, they finger and fuck all the time. All Passacaglia zero wins.

Love you guys game.
