The ASPCA today is Monday, November 2nd, week eight.

What what what if we start in Miami as Jared Fogle, Goff wasn't able to lose the Alby's as a Dolphins defense made him look too big for his britches. A nostalgic throwback to Miss Kicks in the past as Cobra Kai Forbath missed the net flicks by about twenty yards in the fourth quarter, Andrew Rip Van Winkle made a fool of everyone that slept on the Dolphins for the past twenty years as he returned a seventy eight yard fumble for a touchdown. Jakim, Eddie Grant and the Dolphins are taking it down to Electric Avenue as Miami wins.

Twenty eight seventeen. Yep, yep. To Baltimore, where are no touching tribute to Daylight Savings Time. Big Ben pulled his little hand back like a newly divorced mom. The Steelers played the field without Bush. Devin, that is. And Robert mansplaining saying, I'm sorry, Miss Jackson, the Steelers are for real, never meant to make John Harbaugh cry. Looks like Baltimore won't get a by the Steelers remain undefeated. Twenty eight. Twenty four in Cincinnati, Joe not Novembre exhibited large amounts of high t Higgins and edged out Ryan Tannehill.

Derek Enrique Iglesias said, you can run, you can hide, but you can't escape my glove. Jessye Norman Bates brought out the knife in the shower, picking off Ryan Tannehill late. And speaking of Norman's, the Bengals haven't looked this good since Andy Dalton, a.k.a. the Red Rocket. And speaking of red rockets, Hank's dogs, Dick is disgustingly huge. Some spread Bengals slop into a slim Jim and win thirty one twenty one.

Oh, yeah, to Buffalo, where duckbilled platypus looked like he was smoking crack when he went for an onside kick out of that giant V formation. Zach Live Moss. Could it be crunch wrapped up, scoring two touchdowns saying I don't care what taco bills, Josh Allen Wrench took the right angle and a touchdown run to seal the victory and no one circled the wagons.

I got Buffalo Bills, so twenty four point twenty one less to windy Cleveland where Josh Jacob Marsh really fudged the Browns up his ass on Hunter Biden. Renfro found all the cracks in the defense, scoring a touchdown and Trump tweeted out, Who is Darren Ravell Waller? But the Browns defense found that out the hard way. Dogface Pony soldier Cody Malarky had a gaffe at the end of the game.

And the Raiders are back about five hundred winning sixteen six left, right and Packers fans are starting to kerogen. Robert Tomlin targeting kneecapped our starters at the top of the NFC North DeVonté. Adam Daniel back at it again in the end zone and for the absent white fans of Lambeau. But in a touching tribute to All Hallow's Eve, Donovan Cookie Monster gobbled up all the yards and that touchdowns sang me one cookie one but down for me to touch down from three touchdowns for me.

Four touchdowns for Cookie Monster Vikings. Twenty eight Packers. Twenty two in Detroit where Johnathan Taylor matched up against DeAndre Swift. Hey, wait a second. Taylor Swift. Oh, Matt. Patricia said I had a marvelous time doing everything. As I don't know about you, I'm feeling Jaak new lead. Let the Lions in rushing. After switching to him from Adrian Peterson, the Colts moved to five and two and the Prater's going to pray, pray, pray, pray, pray.

But Philip Rivers will just shake it off with his throwing motion. Colts forty one, Detroit twenty one. Standing on the corner.

Jamie Swenson down and no such a fine sight to see. It's Nick Foles. Milo with a dig like Norm's hanging down right below is knee.

Come on to. You're playing like beauty, put me back in so he can start kissing and buppies saints, twenty six bears, twenty three footers in Seattle where Debbie does Dallas West catching and handling balls, scoring twice on the afternoon.

D.K., what can the forty Niners pissing down their legs while Brendan Walker outscored the entire Mississippi state offense by six points on Sunday and wants to remind everyone that even if his team lost, he won. The Seahawks are rolling as Russell Hustle and Bustle is on his way to an MVP. Mr.. And the Seahawks 37, the Niners 27. All right, week eight in the books, thanks to Norm for giving us a couple of lines there. Shout out Hank's dogs, Dick.

It is captivated the Internet. It broke the Internet. More so than Kim Kardashian asked that one time. Yeah, Norm's dick. How are you feeling? What are your emotions right now? Are you jealous? Are you are you upset that your dog's privacy has been violated? The fact that he's got a Howitzer is now we should actually just make sure that there was there's a line over the picture so you can't even tell it's him.

Yeah, sure. To be any dog. It could be any dog. Yeah. Could literally be any dog. Might even be different though. No, I mean it was a weird is a weird finding that I had to explain to, you know, my one year old puppy that, you know, why he was all over the Internet, why one was talking about him. You know, he was embarrassed. He's a little upset at me for even putting the picture out there, although I didn't.

I sent it to big cats. It appeared on the Internet.

No, thank you. Send it to our entire group. Correct. And you forced us to see. No, no. We play the tape back. Yeah, yeah.

We can also play the tape afterwards when he said I was hatching some schemes to try to get you guys to accidentally and that my dogs at ten.

But no, I was you know, I'm happy. I'm happy for him. I'm proud of him.

He was happy, too, at the end of the day. Oh, he's my real, real excited. And, you know, he's I was told that once he gets fixed that the boner won't be a problem. So I'm happy that the picture is the picture will always exist.

What do you think happened? Nude a dog. Do you think that they cut his entire penis off?

I did think that. I don't think that anymore.

But truly, one of those things I had a revelation. I was doing a little, you know, hot leaf and some lettuce. And I realized, like we've talked about this movie Boner Dogs for so long, it's true. I happen.

It wasn't really for any reason, but we got a wiener dog and the wiener dog happens to have the biggest boner, probably this entire podcast's. Oh, yeah, boy. Bigger than mine. So it's truly it's just destiny for, you know, and it's like I feel like a normal movie where it's like, oh, a bunch of sled dogs. And there happens to be this random wiener dog in there that, yeah, it was kind of the outcast.

And then he has to save the day.

Oh, it is perfect serendipity. It's like finding the Dalai Lama in your crib. It's like this dog was born to be your dog on this show.

Maybe maybe we had the the entire Bohner Dogs wrong too. Maybe it's Norman is his little tiny feet, can't keep up with the other sled dogs, but when he gets a boner, it acts as like a post like. Yeah, like a robot like fifth fifth leg where he's just going as fast as the other guys. Yeah, maybe that's it.

All right, let's see. Let's talk some football. NFL Football Week eight. It's sad to say a week because that means we're halfway through.

But no. Yeah, I don't. I'm 17 weeks. Yeah I know.

OK, we'll be halfway through on Wednesday. Yeah.

So we have right now we are in the fourth quarter of Gucci tanuki and the just one drive combination that is NFC East football. It is so bad. Watch, watch, watch it. It is so bad to watch the Beiste. We're watching it. So we will recap that when it goes final and also live react to whatever the fuck happens, because this game, like Carson Wentz, has looked at times like he's never played a football game. And then at times he's making he's dropping dimes.

Carson Wentz is played really, really bad, except for like he had two good passes today and he's just throwing some balls that looked like punts that just go he throws them up to God. He's like, here's an alley oop Lord. And then the wind takes it whichever way the wind's blowing in that instant. But, yeah, he's look pretty bad. I do appreciate Carson Wentz his gigantic camouflage sleeve. Yes, he's got tats. It's a miracle that the Cowboys can even locate that arm to to cause like a strip sack on him because I think blends in with the environment.

Ben, tanuki. I will say this about Banducci Gucci tanuki.

Not good, but he's played remarkably well for someone who lost their job to Nathan Peterman. Well, OK. And so I'll say something else nice about Pend Anokhi. When you have a backup quarterback that isn't supposed to be playing in a football game, the worst case scenario, in my opinion, is a guy who's too scared and just does check downs the whole time. And you basically get like putt putt, putt putt, maybe a couple of first downs.

It's just horrendous to watch. Like, I'm thinking of the the game that Jimmy Closson played when the Bears played the Seahawks and they punted like eleven times. That's that's painful.

Good tanuki. He's at least trying he's trying to throw it downfield. He's trying to be Patrick Mahomes throws sidearm. So I'll give him credit for that end credit. We don't know how this game can. We will we will recap once it does go final. But credit to the Dallas Cowboys for this is kind of their dying gasp where they have thrown everything at the Eagles. The trick plays, the fun plays. Everything is going, you know, out the window here.

Like, let's just let's just fuck it and be legends. And then, of course, fucking be legends for the Cowboys is nine points, but you get my drift. I do think that Mike McCarthy is just running the same script in fifteen plays. On repeat, he's just like going back to those because they've tried the same like in around a couple of times now and credit to the Dallas defense, it turns out that in a weird way, it's kind of good having a shitty quarterback playing because your defense gets this mindset of like we have to create turnovers, we have to stop everybody, whereas before they're like, oh, we got Dak, he's going to throw four million yards.

I can take a couple of plays off here. When you know that the alternative is like you've got Binda Nusi sleighing the ball field, you've got to do you're basically the offense when you're on the field as as defense. You have about the same amount of chance of scoring a touchdown as he does. There's also a fifty fifty percent chance that Mike Nolan never got that Tabasco out of his eyes and they're just playing backyard football without even a plan on defense, which would be better than Mike Jones plan.

Yeah. So maybe that's what the key to to the Dallas season is. Just keep Mike Nolan incapacitated and then have the defense just play like, hey, let's just tackle some guys. Yeah, that's pretty much their strategy and it's working.

So and also Carson Wentz just throwing the ball up and like he doesn't. Hey, you. That's crazy. Yeah. Some picks that are like, what is he looking at? You have to methode the side arm, throws the submarine, throws the news, you try to throw a curveball. You tried to do the what's that movie that the curve, the bullets and not the Matrix.

I think it was deception. Looper it was called shooter shooters. Yeah. Shooter, yeah. Binda Newquay thought that he figured out a way to throw a curve ball with a football and the first person in the history of the world and he's trying it on national. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So credit to him. There it is. And Carson Wentz by the way, terrible move on the great.

If you had the spectrum of quarterbacks feeling pressure, one end would be Eli Manning late Eli Manning when he would self sack himself whenever someone was within ten yards of him. And on the other end of the spectrum is Carson Wentz, who doesn't really feel like he's in trouble until he's midair. Being sacked at that point. Is he like he then will be like, oh, time to bail is too late to back. All right, dude, you just ran for five yard loss directly on a really good one, though.

Just straight to the side. That's fine. Listen, anyway, continue with the mustache. And I kind of love I wish that he would really lean into the Italians and do like a curly mustache. He looked like the guy on those office supply commercials and maybe maybe a couple of pepperonis inside of his little hand. One who said Noshaq had been tanuki, hey, you're fucking you know, you got a nosh. Monge MONCH Come on.

AZRI says every time you'd be talking about these.

Audible All right, let's get let's get into week eight. Like we said, we will we will give you a final recap as soon as the game ends. But that was a pretty good recap of everything that's happening. That's about it. Yeah. Greg, the league is pretty damn good. All right. Raiders, Browns. It was the wind day. It was the wind day. Every game was wind, but no game more so than the Raiders versus the Browns.

Wind, wind. When we got the Derek Carr stat of one in ten all time when it's under forty five degrees up against the Cleveland Browns, trying to go to like six and two and a six and two. Yeah, yeah. Six and two would be like whoa are these guys really for real. And just a beautiful, beautiful sight. I'm so happy in the world that is like so crazy up to Nucci. That's Sackman like.

Yeah. Looks like he was just standing in a wave pool. Is that ball still alive. You got to be shitting me. Yeah. I think that ball's you got to be kidding me. There's no chance there goes that cover. No, no, no. Get him. Get him. Diecast. Brutal fuck.

How did that happen. How did that to you.

He looked like he got hit by a car tanuki. Put it like a man to go with. Gee now they're doing snow angels are you don't get fumble there.

God damn it. That's brutal. I don't know if that was that was a fumble. All right. OK, so Raiders Browns, that was brutal because this whole entire room drank the Kool-Aid on tanuki and took the Cowboys.

He was down. He was down. Goes down. That was down. He got so hyped before the game, being like the New Jersey boy drank the like, God damn it, he drank the Eagles. I was trying to do the impossible two of middling the Eagles earlier in the week at minus seven and ten and a half. That's that's like when you could actually do that. You feel like you're splitting atoms. All right. So Schrader's so the what I was going to say was in a world that has gone mad in a world that nothing is normal, I'm so happy that we at least had a few thousand Browns fans in attendance for this game looking so goddamn sad as a hurricane of like hail and gross wind whipped around.

And just an awful like this is a throwback game. This was a game that was played in 1992. Well, I learned a new word today, and that word is gropple. There was gropple. That's the technical term for the weather, which is, I guess, a combination of sleet, hail, rain, all that shit. Just shit, just like the worst weather that you can ever imagine. It's called gropple. That's what was happening in Cleveland today, it was windy and I had a dumb this is it kind of embarrassing for me to admit, but maybe you guys can help me out.

What is wind? What do you mean what's wind? Where does it come from?

God, when God far low. So, yeah, the thought I had was maybe God farting. He's actually trying to put the tectonic plates. He's actually trying moving around mountains. When they move, they displace air. God's trying. It's God's birthday. And he said, oh, it did count.

Well, that's terrible. Why? So we lost the cover.

It is when the forest fire here, actually the candles, anti-Taliban Italian bias there, the candles first God's birthday and he's trying to blow them out. OK, that's wind. Yeah. So it was it was a shit game. I wanted the Browns to win, but how weird would it be knowing that the Browns are a six and two football team? No, it would really strange. Very uncommon because they're not good. Browns aren't good, but they're they're average, I guess.

Yeah. I think the Browns are perfectly average football, so they're average.

And I hate to say something nice about the Browns. They have the next three weeks, four weeks, actually, they're going to get back on track. So they're sitting at, what, five and three? They have a bye week and then they play the Texans, the Eagles and the Jaguars. I think they can win two out of three of those, if not three. Yeah. So you're now looking at maybe the Browns being like seven in four or eight in three going into the final stretch.

That's real.

Well, I don't want to get people's hopes up from Cleveland because it's happened before bad things have happened to you. But Hank is in shock still. I mean, I am too. I'm pretty sure that the Cleveland Browns are going to make the playoffs.

Yeah, no, I'm pretty I'm like 90 percent sure that the Browns are going to be a playoff team this year.

And that's going to be a lot of fun.

Yes, I am rooting for the Browns in the playoffs at this point. Can I say something bad though?

Don't don't. I just said something really nice about this. Yeah. This game might have hurt them a lot because the Raiders are going to be the team that probably is going to be vying for that. If they had won this game, they were pretty much locked up to make the playoffs. Right. I would I would put them at 99 percent in my proprietary metrics and algorithm now, right now. Ninety little different. But the Raiders deserve credit because the Raiders have been like up and down all year.

It feels like one step forward, two steps back. But this was a big step for going on the road, winning this game. I told you the stat about Derek Carr. He doesn't play well in bad weather. Trent Brown almost. You know, it turned Brown almost died before the game. So Brown got a pre game. I've Jesus Christ. He's still recovering from what covid right. He had covered. I don't know if he did.

He just has a sweet ass tattoo of two women sucking him off. Yeah. So there's like clouds in the background and he's like throwing lightning bolts. He got a pregame I.V. and there was like some air that got into his veins and the air started circulating. He had wheeled out on a wheelchair. And so they didn't report exactly what happened before the game went down. But everybody on Twitter was just saying, like, this is classic Trent Brown drama, like, can we get rid of this guy?

They didn't realize that he was in the hospital like like maybe dying, maybe dying right now as a better. I would have liked to know this before the game so I could have bet on the Raiders because they said that they went out there and they played for Chris Brown. Right. I'm not going to make it all about me because obviously he was in some really bad shape. It sounds like he's going to be OK. But, yeah, that's a pretty fucked up way to start the game.

Yes, very fucked up way to start the game, Hank. You absolutely right. That was the most down person that I've ever seen. I don't understand what the rest were looking at.

Yes. All right. I agree, though. Pfft. Like, well, go ahead. Go ahead.

I can't believe what's happening. I literally we're not sure what is going on, so I don't know what they're saying. But I like this game is rigged.

This game is under protest, officially under protest. Binda Nucci is still a winner in my book. There we go. I'll take that. But he's not a loser. Not a loser. And energy. Not a loser. Not a loser. You're right, Hank.

You're going to be OK to you. Just going to score. We're good. Yeah, I know. I do not think that's going to happen.

Hank, throw another curve ball. Your job right now straight up. Not going to happen.

Oh, no, I'm sorry, Hank, but not going to happen.

How many reverses are we going to see on this next place? And by the way, shout out to Mike McCarthy for somehow getting a mask that fits over his face. Yes, that thing is hanging on for dear life between both ears. Yeah, he's he's been in the tight mask Hall of Fame. Yeah. All right. So Raiders, Browns, anything else? The Raiders. I am impressed with what the Raiders have been able to do, because when you look at like you look at the Raiders, don't I mean, that loss against what now is a two and five Patriots team is very bad, but they lost the other two losses.

Are the bills in the box those there's no shame in those two losses. And they've beaten some decent teams, including the chiefs, pre Korona Patriots, different team.

So there you go. Yeah. Yeah, they beat a healthy Cam Newton. So, like, the Raiders are even healthy. They're four and three. They're they're they're good. Yeah. Well, I think with the Georgian team, you're always going to get a physical football team, generators are physical damn football. I love that. I love that. I love saying that. Like, dude, they're just physical. They can run the physical and built for the playoffs.

That's true. That's true. If they can get to the playoffs, they're going to look like they're supposed to be there.

Yes, exactly. Exactly. All right. Next up, Titans, Bengals. So we had this one wrong. Bengals shocked the Titans. I, I hate that. I don't trust my gut sometimes because we've had these discussions about the Titans. And I do consider we'll continue to work on friends they are passing with. The Boys Are Fabulous podcast, so I don't want to hurt them too much. But this is kind of what we talked about when the Titans lost the Steelers.

They have no pass rush. They didn't get a single sack of Joe Buhrow, who that offensive line is starting like five backups. It's crazy. So that is the Titans major fatal flaw. And as good as Ryan Taino has played at times this year and as good as Derrick Henry is and some of the wide receivers have looked, if you can't get any pass rush, you're fucked. And that's what the Titans, that's what did them in today.

I think you hit the nail on the head. The problem with the Titans is they don't have Taylor Lewan and they don't have Wil Compton anymore. Yeah, well, Compton's buried on the scout team somewhere. I'm going to use the F word on the Titans. I think the Titans in saying I think the Titans were a fraudulent football. Wait, you were you were in on that? We don't know. I'm out on them. So you're in on my side.

They made me look like a jackass for saying that they were going to put the whomping on the Bengals when the Bengals reverse swamped them and just buried them underneath the term. I've been saying this for the Titans. So here's why I think saying this for here's why I think they're from when they were five and I was saying I don't think they're really that good because Ryan Tannehill, we should always stick with our gut on Ryan Tannehill and what we saw.

But in the first like six seasons out of Ryan Tannehill, there's no he can't just be, like, completely different. Right. Derrick Henry was coaching today. Derrick Henry got the ball. He ran for, what, like 120 yards? Something like that. Yeah, they're fraudulent. The Titans are frauds. But that's I wouldn't put it like I don't think Ryan Tannehill is their problem. It's the fact that their defense cannot get a stop. Their defense cannot get off the field on third down.

Their defense has no pass rush. Like to not be able to sack Joe Bura once with this. Oh, automatic safety taken. Smart play by Mike McCarthy. Even what you always have to take a safety to go down twenty three to nine even wonkier. They don't they don't care. What the fuck is Mike McCarthy doing right now. Mike McCarthy inside his little tiny brain that exists somewhere like that dangling hanging down thing in your throat is that's where McCarthy's brain is.

Yes. And that's telling him you're going to be such a goddamn genius if you take a safety with four minutes left in the fourth quarter to go down by fourteen point position, field position. What a fucking layoff. He just, you know, Mike McCarthy, did he just flip the field? Mike McCarthy just flipped the goddamn field. And this is what we talked about McCarthy last week, which is he learned something and now it's just going to stick with it.

Mike McCarthy saw Coach take intentional safety somewhere in film study this week. It was like, I'm going to work that into the playbook. Yes, I can. You I think you can.

Onside kick. I don't know if you can. It's a it's a punt. So it's I think to drop kick. It's a free kick it. Yeah. It has to hit the ground and then you kick it. Right.

So so I don't think it's Ryan Tannehill. It's the defense. The Bengals went ten for fifteen on third down today like the the Titans are dead, dead last in third down efficiency on defense. They can't get stops. So I agree that it's not Ryan Tannehill. I'm saying that Ryan Tannehill is using his voice. I think he's emblematic of the fact that we we are giving too much credit.

I'm happy that you've joined me because I have had to fight Titans fans for a long time now. And it's not I'm not trying to be offensive. I'm just telling you what I see. Times are good team. They're not a great team. Like they could make a little run in the playoffs. Sure. Do I think that they'll beat the Chiefs? Never.

Now, the only way that you can convince me that they're not a fraud after today is by if you just were to tell me this is a trap game, if you to say it's a trap game, then that's a really good way of me being like, yeah, you know what, you're right. It was a trap game now and again. Guess what? Next week, the Titans play the Bears. So they get to shit down my throat when the bears.

Obviously, because I'll tell you what, if Titans fans, if you're looking for one thing to turn this thing around, guess you can't convert on third down the Chicago Bears. Yeah. And we'll get to that later. So you will your defense, you're going to walk away next Sunday after that game being like our defense is sick. I think we shut down the Bears. The Titans are everything that the bears aspire to be like on your best day.

Well, we're just different teams. You can either tighten it now because we're the bears or if there are bizarro world titans where they just don't have any offense and they have all defense. But so we should say something nice about the Bengals. The Bengals are. I think they've surpassed Frisky, I think they're just like, oh, an ascending bad team, so they're sending to they've done the close losses, they've won a couple of games. They've tied a game like this is if you are a fan of an NFL franchise, this is the exact recipe that you want when they don't even flip the field because it's a punt.

Yeah, you know, I know it's from the same spot. You you want to have exactly what's happening with the Bengals right now, and that is losing close to winning some games. And you have your quarterback and Joe Brown is the quarterback. Oh, my gosh. The rugby world. That was a rugby dropkick. That's what I've been saying coaches should be doing. Yeah, I think it worked. This is hilarious. There you go. This game is so fucking phone now.

He's going to go down, get another field goal, then another onside kick, then another field goal, then an onside kick, then take another safety. When you recover that one, then another field goal, and then we only lose by two. Perfect. So Bengals, if you're a Bengals fan, you have to feel like this is the the time where you're almost like I don't want to say it's better than winning because winning is the best.

But there is something to be said about the building team like the team.

When you have your guy and you're like, oh shit, this thing is about to open up for us for a very long time because you don't have the expectations where if you don't meet them, then you're crushed. Right? Right now it's all gravy. Like everything that Joe Buhrow brings to the plate right now, you feel like your future is unlimited and you can do the thing where if your team is bad, but doing like doing better, you can have a couple of random stats in your back pocket where you're like, actually, the Bengals are the best at this.

So you can kind of shove it in random people's faces where they're like the Bengals suck you like, well, did you know the Bengals are, you know, this, this and that. And Joe, this, this and that. And then everyone's like, oh, wow, maybe the Bengals are good. You think Bengals trying to turn it reputation.

It's been a full seven days since one of their players quit and put their house up for sale online after the game. Yeah.

So no other team can claim that. And we talked about it last week. But Joe Buhrow, with the combination of Tee Higgins, who's a stud, and Tyler Boyd, you now have and we don't know what's going to happen. AJ Green. But you have and Joe Mixon, you have like the makings of an offense that should be around Jibaro will be around longer than this, but those guys with jobs will be around for the next five to seven years.

I don't know. It's it's exciting. That's an exciting win for the Bengals.

Well, what's going on with John Ross? Because John Ross demanded a trade. Yeah, I don't know if John Ross is good or not. I do know that he's fast as shit. He is. He's all the jokes about Dick Metcalf. But in reality, he can't turn. He just he he I don't think you run routes. I don't think you can catch balls, but he can run really fast.

OK, yeah. Well he is really, really quick. Really fast. But yeah, I agree with you, I think that the Bengals are in a good spot. This was, dare I say, a signature win for Zach.

I like that. I like to think about think about anything good that Zach Taylor has done in his first year and a half in the NFL.

It really it's just it's just like today. Today is the best thing. Yeah. That Zach Taylor has done. Yeah. Since that's pretty much a job. But that's a good win for the Bengals. Very bad loss for the Titans. They take a step back and next week should be interesting for. Yeah, I'm going to dread that game. Are we are we going to discuss Collin Coward's take of that? Was the Steelers have the worst quarterback in the AFC East right now or the CNN?

Excuse me. Yeah, let's do that. When we get to to Steelers. Steelers. OK, well, we'll rank them. That's a wild.

Well, OK, let's do when we get to talk to his parents, he said it after like one. And also he's saying it right now, I assume, huh. I actually don't hate that take. We'll do it. It would do it for Ravens. Steelers. All right. Patriots bills. This was a classic game where everyone in the world this happens every now and then an NFL season where everyone in the world says the bills minus four is the greatest bet of all time because the Patriots don't have Edelman, they suck coronavirus.

Their defense sucks. Everything sucks. It was all but guaranteed that it would end exactly like this, with the Patriots losing by three covering, but also losing because they're just not really a good team right now.

Bill Belichick, it's it's crazy to see him running these trick plays and these gimmicks like doing onsides kicks that are unexpected because he's afraid of losing and not just because he wants to embarrass the other coach.

Yeah, these are the types of things that Belichick usually does for fun because he's a sicko. He's like sadistic. And he likes to let the other coach know that he's operating like five planes above you mentally. Yeah. And this he's doing it because he's desperate.

Well, to not to sound like a super smart football guy, but if you want to sound like a super smart football guy, you should basically look at that game, watch that game and be like, that's actually here's ready ready for this one. That's one of the best. Bill Belichick never coached me like that. It was a winnable game. You like that, though? He was one of the best games because their positions always and they were running all kinds of weird like runs and and basically being like, we have to change our entire DNA to try to win that game.

So that's that's the like hot take. Go on.

What's what's the Fox show first? No, no. The first thing's first though. First thing first or go on. Max Kellerman will say that tomorrow Max Kellerman or Dan or lost Dan Orlovsky. General Laski will say that's the best game I've ever seen. Bill Belichick coach. That's what he'll say because their roster sucks so bad. And the fact that they were within three points. Yeah, I like that. I'm going to call my shot. I must say, someone's going to say that tomorrow.

He did put them in a position where they could have won the game. Watching that game if Cam Newton didn't fumble. Right. I was watching that game being like this is exactly what I expected when I took the Patriots plus four was for Bill Belichick to find a way to exploit the bill's defense, which is their rush defense, and essentially like throw like bandaids and duct tape at a game plan. And it almost worked. I disagree. I think the best game that Belichick ever coached was the Super Bowl loss to the Giants won in a perfect season because he dealt with the most ferocious front four pass rush of all time.

That game the Giants played the perfect game plan and Belichick had him within three, within three, like if you had no one going in that game that you were going to be dealing with. OK, Michael Strahan, all these guys that they were going to be hitting Brady all day long, the spread probably would have been ten and a half point.

Yes, it was. Yeah. Yeah. Was that spread? It was seventeen, which is crazy to think about. Like everything that we know about being like smart football, like seventeen. That was the spread of the Jets Chiefs game today. Night. Yeah, it was night. I mean, you know, pretty close was the spread of a Super Bowl, I think. Do you have any comment about the Patriots? Are they going to be sellers at the trade deadline?

Oh, that's a big topic, yes. Tuesdays waits. Adam Schefter. We know that Tuesday is the big news on Tuesday. Is the trade deadline.

So privileged to be saying that because, hey, do you have any comments about being sellers or buyers at the deadline?

I don't know. I mean, obviously, I'm not used to seasons like this, but is it crazy for me to still expect us to go to the playoffs? Yeah, it's pretty crazy.

And five really crazy, I'd say, in the AFC. Yes, insane. You do have two games, I think, against the Jets left.

So there you go. You know, put those down at football next week against the Jets. Let's go. Oh, my God. Belichick is going to talk.

He's going to do something he hates faces that he's like, what, Hank, you should try to go do. They let fans in there to answer back to back Monday night game?

We just how funny would that be if you went with a GoPro? Now, come on, Hank.

Hank, I'm not trying to sneak into a make believe Boston sports game. We'll make Billy go.

We'll make Billy try to capture the cat against the law. Try to try to adopt the cat. No, I don't know.

I thought they were going to win. The game was still ugly game, but I don't know. I don't know. I'm honestly, I can't focus because of this Cowboys game.

Well, yet you have brain fog. Yeah. Yes. I think the Eagles are offsides.

The Eagles are offsides. And then they had the ball clearly down. They ripped it out like ten seconds after the play seemed like it was over.

They they had the ball in their possession on the ground, did they not. Yes. For like ten seconds. That's insane. Under protest.

Disgusting. Oh, man. All right. Next stop, by the way, the bills, the bills have so the bills are six and two. They have command of the AFC now, although the dolphins are lurking, dolphins are four and three.

The bills, though, have like big time tests. They have a little mini gauntlet coming up where it's like, where are the bills?

Really, really for real, because they play the Seahawks next week at the Cardinals. Chargers were like spicy under any circumstance, lose to anybody by two points at the Niners and then versus Steelers.

So this next five games, that's not a mini gauntlet. That's yeah, that's like a hallway of death. Right.

So this these next five games are basically going to tell us, like because the bills are good, but are they like, you know, step good?

You know what today was today was a must win for the bills. Yes. Knowing that you had that many gauntlett coming up, you had to go in there on the right foot.

We also have, by the way, the this season for the Patriots is going to be crazy stats season.

So this is the first time the Patriots have a four game losing streak since 2002.

It's like the bizarro brown stat. Yeah. We're just going to get all these weird stats like this is the first time the Patriots are this much of an underdog. This is the first time the Patriots like it's going to be just constant stats reminding you that the Patriots just haven't lost in like ten years. I bet you every week you could find another crazy Patriots stat and have the exact opposite correlate to what the Browns just did that week. Right. Somebody out there find a good stat about like this is the first time that the Browns are five and three since so-and-so, which is also the last time.

That the Patriots are at whatever weird stat that you can drag up about that. Yes. All right. Next up, Colts, Lions. Where do you want to start? Your monster lions are colts.

Let's start with the Lions, because I'd like to I'd like to say something nice about Matt. Patricia. Oh, the Lions outscored the Colts seven to nothing in the first quarter and they outscored the Lions seven to nothing in the third quarter. It's just in the second quarter. They got outscored twenty to zero in the fourth quarter, twenty one to seven. But in the first and third quarter, that's when you come out coaching quarter coaching quarters like the game plan was good going into the game.

The adjustments at halftime appeared to be successful here to work. Yeah, it's just, you know, Matt, Patricia can only put his players in position to win for fifteen minutes at a time. Right. And then everything else is just like a fart in the wind. They need to like have is redundant. They need to have like a full like a Zach Morris timeout for lions games like timeout. Let's stop let's take a couple of days, then we'll come back.

But yeah, the lions like this was a very Lions game that they come out, they score first, like, OK, Lions, here comes the itty bitty run. And then the Colts just kind of manhandled that like the Lions weakness is just man football. When they play man football teams, they don't win. And I'm not I'm not going back on my little bitty I had a lot of people being like, what about that little bitty baby run?

I said, very clearly the lions will be Thanksgiving Day playing at five and five versus the Texans. I still think that because they're playing the Vikings, the the R words and the Panthers, the lefties in the Panthers, those their next three games, I think the I think the Lions can still go to and one in that stretch. This is a little setback, but the Colts are just a better team than them. That's true. And Darius Leonard, by the way, makes makes a huge all the difference, like the difference.

Colts defense is completely different now that he's back. And they the Colts now go from without Darius Leonard to like the Colts. What's going on to the Colts are now back into the mindset of they should and can win the AFC West. So get out of those remaining those three games that you mentioned, how many of those are at home in Detroit? One. OK, that's good. That's good. Because the Lions have not won at home in over a year.

Yeah, no, it's sad. Lost seven consecutive home games. It's a sad trombone we're playing all the time. Not great. They are starting to let Stafford cook though. Yeah. Lensed Africa got the rainfall and they ran the ball what, like five times. Yeah but Stafford Stafford, you fingered a robot that was just like, it was just a great it up. He looked like Trevor Bower. Yes, yes, yes. It looks like.

Yeah. He grabbed a drone out of the air. Yeah. No Stafford is an all time like fourth quarter seventeen injuries guy like hobbling not to the point where Ben will tell you about it like Stafford to his credit he's very, very tough and he doesn't really talk about his injuries like last year. Remember when he had broken back and it was just like, oh, Stafford might not play today. Yeah. Then it was like two days. There's like Stafford had surgery on his broken fucking back.

Do you imagine if Ben had that he had coronavirus earlier this summer, so the reporters had to, like, drag it out of the franchise? Yeah, he's a tough motherfucker. But every game, if it's like so even a little bit close in the fourth quarter, Stafford is like The Walking Dead. He is he's he's he's limping to the huddle. He's like Birhan left pushing down the field.

That's when you have pikestaff there is something really cool about walking around just with a bloody hand though. Yeah. Because everybody seems to do it. Yeah. You should see the other guy like babe, go grab me a rag and a beer. Yeah.

And let me put I put a t bone steak. I'm just not giving up on, on, on the on the nuke. Yeah well we're, we're cooking now Hank. He's not giving up on the new. This is fantastic. I'm eager to see what kind of two point conversion McCarthy pulls out of his extremely good pants can do it. All right. Next stop or no.

Sorry, I had something else I want to talk about the Colts. So I was looking through, you know, getting ready for the show. And I saw this stat and it's such a hilarious stat because who the fuck knows, like what league it is? But I saw a stat that Philip Rivers is now he had a good game, by the way. And he also throws Philip Rivers has the funniest screen passes ever where he threw a screen pass to Jonathan Taylor that touched the ceiling.

It was so fucking hard to hit the scoreboard.

It wasn't what he was doing. It's so fucking funny.

He's putting air under the ball, letting his receivers run under make a play. Yeah. All right. So the stat is Philip Rivers today moved into sixth all time in highest ranked fantasy quarterback. So sixth all time and fantasy points. Now, this is just assuming everyone has the same league, which no one has the same league. So six all all time. And he's never had a game with thirty fantasy points under this league that they were saying.

I believe that. Yeah. And I went back and I looked and Philip Rivers has played two hundred and thirty four games in the NFL.

How many. He had four touchdowns. Twice, no, it's more than that. Two hundred thirty four is a lot of games. Yeah, but he's a guy that will always I for a couple of years. Yeah. Had knives like 19 to 22 points every single. Yes. He's had nine games with four touchdowns. He's never thrown for more than four touchdowns. And then which is this is not very fair of me. But I went and looked up Patrick Mahomes Patrick Mahomes played 38 games.

He already has ten games with four more touchdowns. So it's it's just so funny because I never even if you had asked me before this, like, has Philip Rivers ever thrown for five touchdowns a game? I'd say absolutely, yes. But he never has. Yeah. If the thing about Rivers was in San Diego, he always had a pretty decent running game around right now.

Shoot out on his own. I just for some reason I envisioned him well, having a game where he threw five touches. I feel like Rivers doesn't get into that many shootouts. It's mostly just, you know, he loses twenty seven to twenty six. Right. Or, you know, if he's feeling real frisky, it's like a thirty five to thirty loss.

I wonder if he just turned on that Broncos Chargers game which we're going to get to. Oh my God Kenny score.

He can't score, will not score and hazmat and he deserves to be met because he got screwed. The pooch fucking refs.

We have more important things tomorrow. We'll be OK. Oh my God.

Jake Jong not so wrong answer.

Jake, Brooke. Hank is looking at the TV like will they put some more time back on?

I mean, I have to say it sucks. And I didn't do my I didn't try to split my my atom didn't get split.

Well, we almost sound nutsy.

So that was the NFC East. The Eagles have full control of it.

The Cowboys gave it their all would not say full control of the NFC East. And like they're giving the NFC East the Heimlich maneuver right now, they have the NFC East unlock.

No on God. Not true. I'm God. Carson Wentz on God. Carson Wentz doesn't have anything on online.

All right. So so that's their third win. Yeah, they're three, four and one. All right.

That does sound pretty commanding. Three, four. They wanted it that way. Yeah, that's a significant that's a significant advantage.

All right. Next up. Oh, this is a funny game.

I just saw Vikings. Packers.

I hate myself for not going with the real advanced stats that the Packers are now 017 in their last seven games on Daylight Savings Weekend. Please, everyone, remind us next year. I swear to God I will, Max. But it like no ifs, ands or buts.

I don't know why I put the Packers in my can't lose parlay this this week. I thought maybe they'd at least win but not cover. But holy shit 017 in their last seven daylight savings weekends. That is officially a stat that's officially it should have been a stat when we said it was a stat this week. But this week they're favored by seven in their playoff Vikings team. That's not very good and they lose at home and it's like, holy shit, they just literally cannot change their call.

I got them by six. And that to me, it's like I can't bet against that. Right. Packers minus six. Hellyeah they're going to win by at least a touchdown. Well, I forgot that. I was also betting against Father Time, who is undefeated. And I think it's because you can see the effects of Daylight Savings Time first, the farther north you get. Yeah. So you saw it in the Games in the play in Seattle, right?

They play in Seattle and in Wisconsin. It almost turned the sky turned orange at like one o'clock in the afternoon, which just made me sad because it's like, OK, now is the season where we we wake up and it's dark outside and we leave work and it's still dark outside. Sucks and it sucks. But yeah, we are we're idiots for not trusting the stats and the sabermetrics and all the advanced analytics and and going with the Packers this weekend fucking sucks.

So I have a question. I know that I know we won't spend so much time on this, but I have a question for you.

What would you say now? The Packers are good. I'm not going to say they're not good, obviously. Aaron Rodgers playing great this year, but similar to last year. Would you say the Packers might be a little a tad bit soft? I'd say their defense might be a little soft.

Oh, that's kind of where the hardness matters. I will say this. The Packers are an excellent team to root for this year. If you're really, really trying to get your heart broken in early January like they are, they are going to just destroy some hearts. They they because they will they're going to end up with a record like twelve and four.

And Aaron Rodgers is going to be cooking at the end of the season. He's going to win a playoff game and he is going to break everybody's heart. And you know what? Now it's time to start asking the question, how much blame goes to Matt LaFleur for wasting the prime of Aaron Rodgers career? Yes. With these fraudulent schemes. Yeah.

Just let's just flip that coin right from Mike McCarthy to. That LaFleur look, I'm not everyone knows I'm very biased in this conversation, but I mean, overall the same, I'm very biased. It's similar to last year when I was like, I don't think that they are a real 13 and three team because they can be run on like Dalvin Cook did today.

And they don't tackle well like they did today, where Dalvin Cook at 94 yards after contact and and also had a 50 yard screen pass that they took to the house that was like just sliced through their defense. So that's all I'll say is their defense of Aaron Rodgers is still playing like he was still, you know, they just didn't make a few of those plays at the end of the game. It felt like they were always in third and 10, 13, 15.

And like, if they get this, they'll still flip the switch and they'll be back in this game. They just couldn't they couldn't convert that. But I just I don't know, you know, what's going to be great on Thursday night. We get to decide in three days because you have the Packers going to the 49ers, the 49ers coming off a bad loss. Jimmy Garoppolo hurt. Greg Kittle might be hurt. And guess what the 49ers do they play man football.

Yeah. So so let's see what happens. It's funny because this game, the Minnesota Vikings took the 49ers blueprint and use that blueprint to break the Packers. Right now, the 49ers are going to take the Vikings blueprint of the 49ers old blueprint and try to beat them with essentially just a running game on Thursday night. I think they're going to do it. Yeah, I think that the Packers guess what? You don't have Blake Martinez this year being a little a little tackle vacuum back there, getting seventeen, eighteen tackles a game.

They are on defense offensively.

I think they're great and especially when they're there. Yeah. Aaron Jones being out definitely hurt. Yeah. Today offensively they're a very good football team defensively. If you are if you're losing to the Vikings and giving up one hundred and sixty yards on the ground, Dalvin Cook and then Kirk Cousins only had to pass the ball 14 times. That was it. Jimmy Garoppolo blueprint.

It was the most Kirk Cousins that 9/11 for fourteen one hundred and sixty yards and a touchdown and the one touchdown was the 50 yard screen to Dalvin Cook so he basically had ninety yards.

And you're dealing with Kirk Cousins. This is as hung over as Kirk Cousins gets is the day after Halloween when you had like a few too many Milk Duds. Yep. Stayed up all the way to eleven thirty at night.

He comes in, he's definitely raging headache pimps out his entire house, tries to scare all the kids. Yeah. Makes it way to extreme, you know, like. All right, Chillout.

He's got like those speakers like hidden under the fake cobwebs on his porch and then they walk by and you hear like Frankenstein moaning. Yeah.

And then tomorrow he's going to do the clean switch. He's going to take down all the Halloween stuff and put up all the Christmas stuff.

He'll probably go over to his neighbor's house and be like, hey, do you need any help taking down your Halloween stuff? Yeah, it's the Christmas lights. His neighbor is going to be like, I just got off work, dude. Yeah, just relax, OK?

Yeah. No, I. I guess my question for Packers fans would be this, because this is the cell I always tell myself with the Bears when it comes to the style they play and the fact that they just have never had an offense ever.

The Packers, don't they feel like a team that is built for a dome or a warm weather climate climate, their offensive explosive, they they can win shootouts, but they can't win when they have to grind it out and get man football.

Yeah, I think they're a team that's not necessarily built for a dome. They feel like a team that's built for California.

Right. They feel like they're like if I if you're a Packer fan, you're you're probably like, what the fuck? Can we play a little defense?

Yeah. They play West Coast football. Yeah. That's what do. Well, they don't they certainly don't play Heartland football.

I actually think I took a pretty easy on the Packers there. I don't see that many mean things. They're soft.

What we said some nice things. You said they're going to make the playoffs. You said that Aaron Rodgers is going to win a playoff game. Yeah. Playoff. Forget everything that happens after that. Yeah, exactly. And they're soft. We said that we kind of felt bad for Mike McCarthy getting blamed for wasting Aaron Rodgers career. Yeah.

And Matt LaFleur is also would let me ask you this. Would you rather have a soft football team go thirteen and three or hard as fuck football team go like eight and eight. Yeah. Will get first hardest.

But I rest my case because guess what, they play man up football. Yeah. We going to play defense and we don't play offense. Yeah. I'd rather put a hat on a hat than walk out into a fucking seventy five degree day with a visor that puts the shade of the forward pass arm.

No, thank you guys. All right. Speaking of other big games, so we had another big game. Steelers, Ravens. This was a huge, huge game actually. You know what? Because it was such a big game, I'm going to do an ad with our favorite new advertiser before we get Steelers. Ravens who sponsor that is Chevy Silverado. OK, so we're just talking about Madden Football. I got a little something for you. I thought starter for you, OK, because this is me right now.

I'm thinking about where I want to be, you know, when they say like five. Ten year plan, my five 10 year plan is to be a truck guy, I want to be a truck guy, I want to be a Chevy Silverado guy, because I think being a truck guy is the way to go.

There's something cool about it. I used to be a truck can help people out, but throw some stuff in the back. Chevy Silverado with the coolest thing in the world is. Yeah. Tossing something heavy into the back of your truck and then it makes dust when it hits the bat. Yeah.

Let me throw out some things for you. Ready? Tailgating. Yup. Trucks hauling new big screen TVs that you're going to watch football on trucks towing boats, fucking truck dude, off roading, moving day, helping out your friend or family member.

Now, this is getting into just the the altruism of owning a truck. That's very nice. Of, you know, a Chevy Silverado road trips. Yeah. Truck.

OK, how about this one? It's Monday afternoon. You're hung over at work from a big weekend of watching football laying down in the back of your truck, taking a nap. Riggo, Chevy Silverado. You see that one? We love Chevy Silverado, the strongest, most advanced Silverado ever. Silverado, strong, advanced, dependable, hard working. These are things I want someone to describe me as. That's what a Chevy Silverado is. The design is big, bold and commanding.

This truck turns heads and little. Some guess what happened just happened with the Eagles winning that game. I'm now eight a.m. my survivor picks if I go sixteen. You know, Chevy has told me and when I say they told me, I, I actually just said it out loud. And now they have to do it because otherwise they look like they're going back on the deal. If I go six and my picks, they're giving me a free truck.

How are you? Again, I said it. I said it out loud. And now they're kind of stuck because they're like, well, he said it. And if we don't do it, then we're going to be like, whoa, Chevy, how could you not do it? Guess what? Six, eight. No, I mean, no. Have you use all the good teams? Yeah, I've used all the bad teams. So you're in a good position.

I've used it. I've used the Cowboys against two to Filkin.

Holy shit. OK, I use the Cowboys. I use the dolphins. I use the Cowboys. I use the Eagles Chiefs. I've not used the chiefs. That's a win I like.

I actually have. The problem is I'm starting to think about it, which means I'm going to like the first six weeks. I just I was just like winging it. And then I said, Chevy is going to give me a truck, which again, they did not say that. I just said it. So now I actually think I'm going to get a truck. You know, I'm paying attention. Another cool thing about trucks, every song sounds better if you're listening to it in a system without even sounds better if you're standing across the street and you hear it coming from somebody else's truck.

Yes.

So everyone who's listening to this right now, you should be a truck guy and especially a Chevy Silverado guy.

So make sure you check out Chevy Silverado again.

I mean, tailgating, hauling off roading, towing boats. You don't have to do the part where you have to help people move. No, but I mean, you do have to do the part where you own the Chevy Silverado just driving past somebody that is moving themselves and then just kind of laughing at him because they don't have a truck, right?

That's right. Cool.

So Chevy Silverado, new sponsor, thank you very much. Chevy, the strongest, most advanced Silverado ever. We've also heard that we have some A.W. else on the sales team at Chevy Silverado. So shout out to those people just making the world go round.

All right. Steelers, Ravens, Steelers. Twenty eight. Ravens twenty four. I don't want to say I told you so, but I told you so.

OK, I'd like to counter your argument. You're implying right now you're not you.

Yeah, I'm not talking to you. I know we're all we all know actually answered that you thought Steelers were better. I think that the Steelers are better. But I also think that the Ravens displayed signs of not being a completely fraudulent football team. OK, and which were which are their defense good. They alkane the Steelers 457 and 221 totally fine. Also, they're not frauds because I haven't gotten the sense of dominance from them that I got last year.

So right now, I think the Ravens are exactly what the Ravens are, which is they're a good football team. That's extremely they're flawed. They're not frauds. Yeah, they are. They have flaws that are very noticeable that like I don't expect them to go and compete against the chiefs or compete against the Steelers or. I actually think that, like the Titans, would they give the they match up well against the Ravens. Still, like I don't think that the Ravens are going to be that team that you're looking at in the playoffs would be like they are the prohibitive favorites right now.

I think that they are a flawed football team, but everyone kind of sees it coming, meaning that they're not really fraudulent because they're not presenting themselves as being awesome.

Well, all right. So my counterpoint is well, first of all, I know that they have injuries. Mark Ingram being out is significant. They're wide receivers aren't great. But as I thought from day one when I've started, the Ravens are frauds. And again, it's not that they're a bad team. They're very, very good team. When I say the word fraud, I'm doing it because they have championship aspirations. They are Super Bowl contenders.

And at that point, I say fraud until I see it from Lamar Jackson. In terms of passing the ball consistently and and like moving the ball, not making any mistakes, he has flashes of it. He was the fucking MVP last year. He was incredible. He is incredible. But he was forty six percent completion today. He got sacked four times. He had two fumbles, two interceptions. And the interceptions were very bad interceptions. Those were interceptions.

First one was the first one was a pick six. But the second one might have even been worse because that's started the second half. You're up ten. Your defense is dominating. The only thing you can do you can't do is give the Steelers a short field to basically get right back in the game. And that's exactly what he did. That's situational. Like don't make a mistake here. Throw the ball away type of.

And it was actually it was set up for the Ravens to come out in the second half and do it. The Ravens do. The Steelers didn't play great. I played awful in the first. No, not good for their offense.

Struggled a lot. Their defense is for real is their defense. There's a gropple out there. Their defense got got, you know, eaten up in terms yards, but they made huge plays and they created, like, havoc when they needed to. And, you know, that's the Steelers defense is very, very, very good. Receivers also very good.

But I'm just until Lamar does it in in a spot where it's like, OK, we're going to let you run, but we're we're going to make you pass and you have to pass consistently, you know, ten, ten play drives against a good team like the Ravens are good enough that they can beat up everyone when they take the step up to those three or four teams above them. It's a different story. And when they beat one of them, those teams, I'll think differently.

Well, Lamar is entering the territory of he holds the ball like a loaf of bread. He's getting like that shady McCoy. He got hit hard today. He got he got hit hard, but he he's got bat. He doesn't carry the ball like like a good runner normally does. And that's part of partially like what makes him really, really good is that he is unpredictable and he's able to do stuff that nobody else can do. Yeah. And get away with it.

But when you catch him in an instance where he's, you know, he's like pulling his arm back or like taking the ball away from his body, you know, nine times out of ten, it works out really well for him. And then he makes the other guy, like, pull their groin and basically spontaneously combust right before walking around him. That one time out of ten that you catch him, you're going to get the ball out. Yeah.

And it happens a lot. And they had good fumble. Look, at times now the fumble looks turning around.

And and so I know what the counterpoint is going to be. Last year, obviously, the Ravens, they went and they beat Seattle in Seattle, which was a very good team. They beat the Patriots, who I think we're eight know at the time. But again, those games, if you look at it, Lamar threw like one hundred and fifty six yards. He wasn't needed. Like their offense was so good running the football last year, in large part because of Lamar, that he wasn't needed to throw the ball for 250, 300 yards.

The NFL like to be in upper echelon team. You have to your quarterback has to be able to throw have that type of game.

Man does maybe. I don't know if they. So this game almost shaped up to be the perfect Ravens game where they just come out in the second half and just ran the ball down their throats, then you wouldn't need Lamar to make those big plays to beat a very good football team. So it's possible to beat a dominant football team by, you know, not having to throw the ball more than 20 times or so. But he just he fucked.

Oh, man. Fucked up. OK, I just think of like when you get into a game against the chiefs, like, you can't you can't you can't beat the Chiefs if your quarterback doesn't throw for 300 yards.

Derek Carr, I don't play the best game of his career. Right.

Exactly like that. And that's really what it comes down to. Like, if we want to boil everything that I'm saying down to one statement, it's really just that I don't think this Ravens team can beat as currently constituted. I don't think this Ravens team can beat this Chiefs team. And that's kind of all that matters. Like it's kind of like when the Patriots were running, you know, we're dominant. It didn't matter if you won twelve games, if you couldn't beat the Patriots, it just didn't matter.

So it's not like this team sucks. It's not like they are a bad team. It's just when you put them up against the best team in the AFC, I do not think they can beat them. So I don't think that we've there isn't enough body of evidence to determine whether or not the Ravens are fraudulent because they haven't presented a case yet. They haven't presented a compelling case to play to say no, no. I'm saying this Ravens team this season.

Yeah, they they haven't shown no evidence to to prove that they should have any expectations, because the best win that they've had so far this year, you'd probably have to say, was week one against the Browns.

But they do have expectations because they have the MVP and they were and they were the one seed last year. So they definitely have based on this team. Yeah, they're not I'm not going to be able to call the Ravens. Frauds are not frauds until after they play against the Titans on November 22nd.

The game against the Colts next week is actually be very interesting because that's a that's a that's a tough team to play against in Indianapolis. Like if they win that game, I'll be like, OK, this seems a little bit, you know, revenge game for the entire city. Baltimore. Yeah, that's true. So. All right, so let's have the discussion real quick, the conquerer take that, what was his take? No, I thought he said he'd been, in his own words, quarterback in the AFC North, as currently stated.

I think I'd still have him, Abubaker. You think Burrow is second part, you think Burrow's banks? I think I think it's Lamar Warnbro to Baker or Ben three. Ben doesn't look great.

He got his arm worked on today. He got his arm worked on massage. He doesn't look great. He looks good enough, which is what we said last year when the Steelers like we're trying to get into the playoffs with Doug Hodges and Mason Rudolph, like they need just average quarterback play because their defense is that good. Ben is a great quarterback career wise, but right now he's not playing great football.

He by the way, he said it was just a funny bone, which that's just very hilarious to me to imagine Big Ben saying my funny bone hurts.

Yeah, he looked he didn't look great today. He really didn't score. He's not like Washington jacks off real quick hits.

The stranger out there, he's got a little bit of the of the Joe Flacco, like just half the offense is just getting past interferences. Yeah.

Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. He's he's getting into the like I'm going to throw this guy portion of career. Right. And his someone about his shoulders. I don't know if his shoulder pads have gotten wider or maybe he's just like accidentally putting on linebacker shoulder pads. I think maybe since he's coming off an injury, even though it's like to his to his elbow. Right. He's a better safe than sorry. I better wear bigger pads on my shoulders this year.

I'm not going to doubt him, though, because he could end up looking great like the big bears defies all logic, I would say.

I'm going to say that. Lamar Jackson and Big Ben are tied for number one, OK, and then Baker and Buhrow are tied for number two, I guess I don't think you can also watch quarterback.

I think it's a great division of quarterbacks. You could do like the who's who would you rather have going forward? That's an interesting debate. Who do that another time? That's an interesting debate I take, bro. Bro. Right. It probably Berl, Lamar Baker, Ben, just in terms of age. So maybe that's what he was saying, that that could make sense given the cap ramifications, just like and just like who you're building the next like three years off.

All right. Next up, Rams, Dolphins. This was a fucking weird ass game to who gets his first win. This is how stupid like quarterback winds are that he gets his first win. And he wasn't good. I mean, he had he had that good touchdown throw, but he was fucking crushed a few times today and he had like ninety three yards of offense.

It's also just sad to see Ryan are not Ryan Tannehill. Ryan Fitzpatrick on the sidelines with a clipboard. Yeah he doesn't. He gives off no clipboard vibes. Just look sad. I know, I know. And I, I actually I think that Fitzpatrick should be starting right now. I think they went to it too early, not because how he played like I could give a shit out to a play today. He didn't get hurt, which is great.

Yeah. He was an awesome skirt. The level. Well I think soccer I think more guys should wear skirts. Yeah. I think that it provides more mobility. All righty. Sean Connery. Yeah, exactly. There you go. And it's just it's more comfortable, more more breathable. Yes.

But it looked like he got out of the shower. Yeah, it looked awesome. He told me that doesn't look more comfortable. Basically, when you put on pants in the morning, you're essentially putting ace bandages over both legs and just walking around all day.

Yes. Yeah. But I could care less how he how he looked today. I still think that Fitzpatrick, if you're actually going to be maybe a playoff team, why not just stick with Fitzpatrick and see where this goes? Because he gives you, I think, a better chance to win most games. Yeah. In this game, it was Jared Goff just had it had a case of the opuses today. Yeah. Jeff, big upsy game.

It was just a bad game.

The Rams offense is so weird they can either look so, so good or just like they've never played before together like that.

And today was one of those times zones. Was this a time zone? I don't know if it's a tie. I mean, Sean McVay, we said it was seven and two against Sprint times.

It's the Rams travel schedule, too. And I'm not trying to just make excuses for our friend Jared, but I totally am. The Rams have had I feel like they've been on the East Coast every other week, is that not?

No, they I think they played like two games back to back. They've stayed at the Greenbrier.

They just played Monday Night Football and then had to go and then had to go all the way to to Miami. Yeah. With the exception of. One game at the 49ers, all the road games have been, yes, East Coast is very, very bizarre. And the guess what? They play the Seahawks in two weeks, they have a bottom and then they go to the Bucs. This is just the weirdest schedule for them.

So they can't they keep going, crisscrossing and going back and forth. All right. So, yeah, the two wasn't great. Doesn't really matter. Now, the game, if you watch the game the whole time, you're like the Rams are going to win this game. They just they didn't because they just couldn't make like a couple.

Kai Forbath When that guy came out, I said it out loud. You guys heard me. He has the skinny arms. He was in that perfect spot where the sun was shining in his face.

And I said, this guy has no chance of missing. Yeah, he's he's what you may think of whenever Mike Ditka talks about some kicker, he's the person that Mike Ditka is picturing inside his own head.

I think that if you gave him a 10 pound weight, he it would it would cripple, you know, he would blow away and just roll it. He would just follow the way. Just hold on to it.

It would just take him drop downhill. Yeah. Yeah. Just put a ten pound weight on him. Yeah. If you just throw him into a river right now, if he's wearing shoes they're pretty much like he's wearing cement is.

Yeah he's done. He's so he. Yeah. So the Rams that game was very weird. The Dolphins got like basically dominated yardage.

I should just not be a name of a professional athlete surfer. Well I was going to say like maybe like a yoga instructor that fucks your wife.

Yeah. Yeah. That's that's a chi chi.

He's got cool cool guy Phibes. Not Keker, not Keker. Vineyard care. All right. Jets' chiefs. I mean, who cares. Yeah. Yeah, who cares. Cares. Mahomes is incredible. Patrick Mahomes doing his underhand shovel pass is so unfair. It was kind of so cool.

It was kind of fucked up that the chiefs faked a punt against the Jets. I like it. It's kind of like Adam case. He had him. Guess we talked about Matt. Patricia doing the coaching quarters out of the Jets were frisky in the first half, like they were a little frisky.

And you only say that because I think you bet on the chiefs to cover it. Just barely did they know what they have.

You said that the game was going to be a twelve point game after the first half, like, oh, that's kind of frisky. Like they're moving the ball.

They're only getting field goals.

But the the second half, they got sixty three total yards and two first downs. So that's good coaching. Adam Case.

Well I think they just game plan this entire game to try to stop. Le'Veon Bell, you feel like we're not going to let this guy beat us because he came from our team, he disrespected you guys, pushed mission accomplished. He had six catches for seven yards, one point two yards per carry. So I honestly think that if you're Gregg Williams, you're treating this like you won. You did your job. Yeah, you did. Yeah. You claim you can blame Adam Gase to the reporters.

That's as an unnamed source.

That's all Greg Williams needs is like one reason why it's not his fault. Yeah. And then he'll be totally happy that. So he went in this like as long as Le'Veon Bell did not score, you know, two touchdowns and have eighty receiving yards and one hundred and ten rushing yards, Greg Williams is going to be happy. So, yes, mission accomplished. He shut them down. He did his job. Now it's time for the offense to kick it in hyperdrive and start doing theirs.

Yes, I agree.

Yeah, he's great. Williams definitely walked away being like, good job, dude.

When was the first time Rush? That was last time the Jets scored more than ten points. Never against the Broncos Thursday night. Yeah, that came in. That was that was hyperdrive.

That's also Flacco crazy crazy mahomes that he has. So like I said, he's played thirty eight games, regular season games. He has three pass passing touchdowns and zero picks in a half. Ten times. Ten times.

They scored more than ten three of their first four games.

Whoa Jake. That's actually big but now they don't. OK, before we get to the afternoon games. Pfft I saw you wearing a zip up the other day. Yeah. It looked fucking cool.

My quarter zip. Is that what you're talking about? I am, yeah. You know, I look cool. It's because it's from our good friends at Roback. I actually have their mask. I've been wearing their masks to wait. Hell you wear a mask, forget and vote and vote save lives. That's from Roback. Roback is awesome. If you see me where the quarter zips their polo shirts or their masks, the ones that have the the cute little dog on them, that's roback.

It's pronounced like Brogan Roback. Very easy for you guys, remember. And the guys over at robock have been sending us their performance. Polo's their quarters at pullovers and their hats for a while now. And I'll be honest, we're in love with their stuff. And at PMT, we're elite athletes. We demy, we demand high performance apparel and Roback delivers exactly that. Occasionally you're going to see somebody rock and roll back quarter zip or hat with their dog logo and you just kind of give them that.

Said a little nod like the Jeep wave. You see them on the sidewalk because, you know, they get it when it comes to gear, real backs, quarters. It pullovers are soft, they're comfortable. They're super awesome. Nobody does quarters like Roback or Q zips like they call their top quality. Sometimes we rock Roback Cusack's Comando. They're so soft. You don't need the undershirt. You don't need any sort of jersey tank top underneath. And with the weather getting cooler and Kucik.

Season in full swing, I definitely check them out, they just dropped a bunch of new quarter zips and their performance polos are next level. The collars are structured. They last after a lot of washes, unlike a lot of other polo shirts out there. And the fabric is so comfortable you don't want to take them off. They're not your typical boxy golf polo's. Their print designs are awesome. The Polos are popping up all over the NFL. If you see me wearing a cool looking polo shirt, like a polo shirt where you you look at it, you're like, that's not a normal polo shirt.

That's not a dress up polo shirt. That doesn't look like, pfft, got caught. That doesn't look like he's out of his element wearing a polo shirt. It's because I'm rocking a roback polo shirt and they've got awesome designs, cool prints. They're big time right now. And here are part of my take. We're proud to wear their gear. It's the highest quality. They were founded by award winning listeners who also happen to be big dog people.

And Leroy's been wearing their bandanas, too. They've seen fabrics. Leroy's rockin the the dinosaur prints right now. Use the code, take on Roback Dotcom. That's our job. Ask.com to get twenty percent off through the end of this week. That's our H.O. backa dotcom get twenty percent off all their polo's their quarter zips and performance tips.

All right. Chargers Broncos Drew lock back Trulock Moxey.

This is, this is a moxey off baby that I'm going to give you. I'm going to give drooler credit for the game winning drive. It wasn't like a great drive by him, but I don't think he had a pass over like fourteen yards because he he had like a twenty yard pass interference and he missed a couple of wide receivers.

But a win is a win and the Chargers are I man it's so sad.

And they have had so thirty eight one score losses since 2015.

That's since twenty fifteen. They have forty nine total. Thirty eight of their forty nine losses are one score losses, that's that that's insane. That is when you say a number like 38. Yes, I thought you were going to say like 2002. No, since two thousand and fifteen. Pfft. They have in the last two years. So year and a half they have had fourteen one score losses. That's the last year and a half. They are, they are three and fourteen in one score games in the last year and a half.

Think about that. No that's crazy. It's mind boggling how they're able to do this.

I think we've been talking about them and how weird and heartbreaking their losses are. The weird types of games that the Seahawks, if the Seahawks ended up losing games, they're like if you're if you're a footy fan, they're like the English national team. Yeah. Essentially just finding new ways to lose games.

They have they're the first team in NFL history to blow for Leeds of sixteen or more points in four straight games out there.

It's crazy. They're they're like more sad than the Falcons. I know that's even insane to say, but the way they lose these one score games like look at their losses this year, there are two and five.

They lost in overtime by three to the chiefs. They lost by five to the Panthers.

They had the ball, I think, to score to end the game. They lost by seven to the box where they remember that game. They were up and going into halftime. They're going to be up like twenty one. And they had that fumble. Yeah, they lost by three in overtime to the Saints and they lost today by one, basically handing the game over with the drooler. Eighty four yard drive.

It's insane how they lose games.

Do you think that there are any Los Angelenos out there that were not Rams fans but they got these two teams that just moved in town? Do you think anybody thought to themselves, like, I wonder which team I'm going to pick? And they picked the Chargers just out of nowhere? Or is it only people that have some sort of connection? I don't know, man, because it's sad.

It is like can you imagine if you were a Falcons fan or if you were a resident of the city of Atlanta and there were two football teams. Right. And you chose to remain a Falcons fan?

It boggles the mind. No, it boggles the mind. And that game, the Broncos in the first half, they looked like the worst team in football.

I thought there was zero percent chance the Chargers would lose that game. They gave up that huge run to Phillip Lindsay. They gave up, I think, a huge touchdown. Jerry, Judy, like, they it's crazy.

And we thought it was Phil Rivers. It's just the Chargers. The Chargers are the Chargers. And I don't forms.

I don't know what you can do to fix who they are.

I think you've got to burn down the stadium, burn down the old stadium, lost four games, blown leads of seventeen, seventeen, sixteen and so on. And twenty one today.

Yeah. Jesus Christ. And like thinking about what the Chargers like even you can actually see the Chargers are sadder than the Falcons because now I'm thinking about it.

Of course the Falcons. OK, wait, hold on, hold on. The Falcons obviously had twenty three in Super Bowl put the Chargers, they had a Hall of Fame quarterback, Phil Rivers, and one of the greatest running backs of all time, Ladine Tomlinson in their prime. And they had some seasons where they were like the best team in the league and they never won. The Falcons had an MVP and then they had possibly the best rushing quarterback of all time, put for a while.

And then they got to the Super Bowl, which they lost because their Walter Payton Man of the Year went out and got a hooker the night before the game. I don't know, man. That's pretty heartbreaking. I mean, I could go on with some stuff.

I mean, the Chargers to the Chargers lost probably forty in their Super Bowl. I don't know the Chargers. I'll have to look into it. I'm just thinking like the way they've lost games have been so, so painful. And the way that like, if you look at like who they had with Lety and man, I think I'm sorry Chargers, but also very sad.

I don't even know if there's I think I don't know how part of it also has to do with the fact that you can look at the Chargers and every time they lose, even back when they were in San Diego, be like, well, they get to they get to go back to a sweet. That absolutely matters. You're absolutely right. Like go surfing after exactly like their lifestyle. They don't they don't feel like losers.

They the Chargers, the one time they went to the AFC, maybe I think they might have done a couple to.

But remember, Phil Rivers had a fucking torn ACL, played on the tornado, played on a Tahnee Kading. Was that the exciting game to they were that. Yeah, they were fourteen into eleven and five. Thirteen, three, twelve and four. And they fired Marty Schottenheimer. Yeah. Brought in Móvil man the chance. It's tough. Don't get me wrong, I think that what they have to do is just they need to burn boatman's costume at the stake.

Yes. Like tie it up like it's Joan of Arc. Yes. Put a bunch of kindling underneath it. Yeah. Maybe even like rig some sort of robotic thing on the jaw. So it looks like it's screaming when you light it on fire and just fucking send that thing up in blazes and the.

So the Broncos are frisky, and the reason why they're frisky is Vic Fangio is such a good defensive coach.

I think they're defensive coordinator actually didn't coach today because he had the coach that Coco and Vic Figes like. I got it. Vic Fangio looks healthy as ever, went out there with a giant Band-Aid over his entire nose. Yes. It looked like he pissed a kidney stone out of his nostril.

But I think, you know, the Broncos, they might officially be in the frisky category where it's like you don't ever count out the Broncos.

Don't count out Drew Lock. They're three and four. Trulock he went from having moxie to now it's like he can win new game. Yeah. If you need him to and they're playing, don't ask him to do it too much. And they're playing the Falcons next week so they could go to four and there you go. Well, there you go. Drew Moxey lock that last the last drive was good. And then it was always it was nice to see Drew like dancing around doing it.

Yeah. Like, yeah. Who does he whosay. Raptor. I'm looking at Bubba like Bubba knows. Yeah, so he was he was doing like little cheesy dance again, but there were a lot of Trulock haters out there in the first half. Yes. And just I want you to know and it's like I saw you.

Yeah. I mean, it was a nice drive. All right.

I think the entire fourth quarter he played pretty well. Yeah.

No, no, he did. He did. He came back. You look bad and he came back.

It helps that Jerry Judy is a fucking monster.

Yes. So good. So good. All right. Seahawks forty Niners. So T.K. Metcalf, I don't know what else to say about him.

The forty the Seahawks are fucking the fact that, like Tyler Lockett had the game he had against Cardinals and then Dick Metcalf is like, now my turn. And that run that that pass he took for a touchdown was that was like Prime Odell. Remember when Odell would take like a slant and it looked like he was jogging and everyone was in slow motion. He took that pass like a seven yard pass, I think was like a curl route and then just ran through their entire defense looking like he was jogging, going by every.

Well, that's what's crazy is he's gotten so good at running the straight line nine route and just burning everybody that the cornerbacks, he doesn't have to be good at doing the curls anymore because the quarterbacks are so afraid that he's going to keep running. Right. Are they he's going to chase after them and tackle them in the open field. They're just going to assume that he's running towards the end zone. So he comes back. It was it was a pretty good route, don't get me wrong.

And then the the quarterback kind of fell down and then decayed, much to everyone's surprise, ran to the side directly across the field and then made another ninety degrees. Right. He made one hundred and eighty degrees worth of turns on one play. It was good for him. It's like he's going to be dizzy after that.

Yeah, it was incredible. I mean he's he's special. And the Seahawks, like their defense, kind of figured it out a little bit and yeah. I don't know. The Seahawks are are very, very good. And then on the other side, the 49ers, I think this is going to be the forty Niners all year where they lose a game, get injured. They might they'll probably lose by like fifty next week and then they'll win like three in a row.

You've got the 49ers are back.

We just we skipped over CJ Bathory today. We're like we're going right to convoyed Nick Mullin.

Yeah. And he did OK. He had you know he had a couple touchdown drives. Yeah. I think it's really over. So when, when Jimmy G goes out injured, it's always nice because Nick Mullin ceiling is like a 65 percent, maybe seventy percent of Jimmy G. Yeah. So they actually they improved when he came in as the backup for him. Who knows how injured Jimmy G is. And then Greg Kittle obviously going to the locker room.

I think he's OK. I don't know. I don't know. So I hand out hope he's OK. This is going to shock you guys. I missed I missed this one, too. I thought this this is my other whomping of the week. Yeah. And the 49ers, they got whomped. They got whomped physically. Yeah. Physically. They got they got pushed around a little bit.

And the forty Niners have a tough stretch coming up. So I don't know like they have, they have the Packers, Saints Rams bills. That's going to be this could, this could with their injuries.

The fact that they're four and four right now is pretty incredible with all their injuries. But it feels like they've they came back after that Dolphins game and beat the Rams in the Patriots. Can they come back again?

If they played the Steelers schedule? I think that they would be probably like six and one. Five and two Steelers beat the Titans and the fucking Ravens. Yeah, but besides those games, OK, I think the Niners are I mean, they're they're kind of there when they got schedule fucked, maybe. No, but hold on. Their their wins are the Jets and the Giants are two of their wins.

So and they've also gotten to play the Eagles and the Dolphins. So I wouldn't say they're totally skittish.

I think they're scheduled for they've won all the games that they're supposed to win. But then, well, they should have beaten the Eagles probably and probably dolphins, maybe.

They're like ten point fifty maybe. Maybe I just don't think they've been I think the forty nine is going to be that team that I get stuck on all year where I think that they could come out and beat literally anybody in the know they have to get they they have not been scheduled fucked.

They are about to get schedule fucked. They they have not had a tough schedule up to this point, but they are about to they're about to have a fucking really tough schedule. Yeah. The Seattle is just fucking good and there's so much fun to play.

I wish they were in prime time all the time.

All right. That is all the games you want to get to. Dion, let's do it. That's all the games. Yeah. Those all the games. Oh, happy. No, not November. Are we doing that this year.

That's the thing. Yeah. We're going to do no November. What does that mean. All the games. Watch. That's it. We're considering going to football Monday Night Football. Oh, also the bears against the Saints bears play the Saints. No, that didn't happen. Oh, it did happen. It was almost a tie. I was hoping for.

I think America was rooting for a tie, or at least I think that was all the games for a second. No. Yeah, he did for a second. Because I think we just I think we literally do this every single week when the bears lose. No, usually talk about them early. That's it. If they play at one o'clock. Everybody wanted to say, I wish there was a tie, or at least I wish a big cat had had like a more heartbreaking way to lose.

Instead, you just kind of lost.

No, it was actually like. Well. Well, it actually kind of was heartbreaking because. Well, this Bears team is just so they are they are not good enough to be like good like for me to be like, oh, this team is good and they're not bad enough to just straight up suck. So they just put you in that zone where it's like every single game. I just go up and down a roller coaster being like, oh, here we go.

That first half of them. So they went in to prevent defense for God knows what reason. They played a perfect first half. I was like, wow, this Bears team, this is legit. Then they suck. They come out in the second half, they fucking delay a game punt. Javon Wims fights a guy without him looking. Well, everything falls. Allen Robinho loses his mind. No, no. This Bears team sucks. He tapped him on the face mask, got his attention, let him know and said, I'm about to hit you.

And then he hit him twice. Yeah, the sucker punch tribunal rules it. Not a sucker punch.

They and they so then they that happens. And I'm like, wow, this is the worst coach team. This is a fucking joke of a team. Alan Robinson is like he like left the sideline, the offensive sideline to like be upset because he can't believe that he's got another quarterback, can't get him the ball.

God bless him for just like being there every week. And then they come back and they tie the game and fucking Cairo. Santos is now like an asset. He's like, good. I actually feel good about a kicker.

And then they in a way that ends poorly. And then I want to mark that time stamp.

And then they almost sacked Drew Brees like 16 times in overtime and lose.

And it's just and I said this is why it was painful, because when the call play happened, which was a very lucky, fortunate bounce for the bears to have that called forward progress down when he clearly fumbled, I said out loud, well, at least it wasn't a painful death.

Yeah. And then we had like twenty five more minutes of football.

If you could watch every single Bears games game this season without any knowledge of what has happened so far this season. So like every game, you're actually zero and zero in your own head. You would probably be happier because you just be like this team stinks, right? And then if you got a win, you'd be like, OK, that's lucky that we got to win. But the fact that you've accumulated a number of lucky wins means that you're always kind of in on it.

You're always kind of like five and three.

I'm not going to apologize. Five and three is still in on it. And please apologize. I feel so bad for this fucking defense. This defense is so good. This defense kept kept on holding the Saints to field goals. This defense ball's out every single week and the offense just sucks. It sucks. They can't block for shit. They like try to run the ball and they can't run the ball. Matt Nagin is stupid fucking dork. Plays suck.

I feel bad. Foles is like Nick Foles sometimes like I actually juju. I think you just don't put them in it until you need a drive at the end of the game because there are times when it's like he'll just take a twenty step sprint back, drop and throw an interception. Where's this ball going, Nick?

I feel bad for Matt Nagy because that little hard count, he's a fucking no, no. I feel bad for him because he isn't aware that he's doofus. And also, I don't think it's his fault that he's this. I get rid of the visor. I think he's just naturally dumb. That little hard count that he pulled in the third quarter. Yeah. It was like, what, fourth and for fourth into fourth and two in like the start of the third quarter.

Yes. From his own twenty sixteen yard line. Sent his sent his offense out there, had them run a play to try to draw the defense offsides, which they obviously didn't do. Then best case scenario you have to take either delay of game penalty back you up five yards for no reason or you burn a timeout at the start of the third quarter. And I feel bad for Matt Nagy because in his head he was doing something insanely smart, like that's in Matt Nagy's brain.

That is something that a smart person would do. So his idea of what a smart person is is so far from actually being what a smart person really is that I don't think is his fault. I think he's I think he's just got an extremely low IQ.

He's he is essentially playing every game. He's playing chess. And he says to himself, checkmate. And then the other teams. Like what? Like you just left your queen exposed. Checkmate to you or King. King. I don't play Chess Kings with checkmate to you, and then what happened, what just happened, I thought I had checkmate.

Yeah, like he Queen's Gambit five show Queen's Gambit.

I'm going to watch it all. I'm just going to read in a Chemex. I'd say it's like he's playing chess against a dog, but he falls asleep every game and time expires on it.

It's just sucks, man. It sucks. I can't. This team is so they are such a fucking like parody of every Bears team was just painful to watch them play offense and so enjoyable to watch them play defense. And when you put it together, it just it's such a shitty like this is really the only thing you just need. Devin Hester, that's really the only thing that, like, is missing that like could make this a full on bears team where it's like, OK, now really all we want is to play defense and get punt return, you know.

Yeah. When your defense does even when you happen to give up a touchdown, it's also well guess what, they're going to kick the ball now. Right, exactly. So I chemex that afterward. Afterwards you got to let it hurt. Sometimes you got to let it hurt. So that's it. And it hurt. I fucking I can't believe I keep like doing this where I keep buying back into this team when I know they're not that good, but their defense is so.

And like I said, what the Packers I'd rather play man football and suck than play soft ass candy ass football. That's right. And win a bunch of games. And Ellie Goulding song. Yeah, I told her I got a guy to listen to her. He wants to hurt also Troy Aikman. Like, can we make sure that Troy Aikman doesn't ever call another Bears game because he was physically in pain watching it. He didn't even said at one point like this is so frustrating to watch because it was at Soldier Field.

He's like, this is a tremendous waste of taxpayer money. Yes. Yes.

He couldn't fucking handle it. He was he actually said that he's like, I can't I this is frustrating. And the and the bears still can't get plays in. Oh, I still can't get plays. Right. The set was broken. It's crazy. I want to put some respect to Sean Payton, though, because the time out that he called was an extremely relatable one, the one where Cole Kimmett fumbled and Payton calls a timeout. Yeah, there's nothing that he can do to overturn the play because it was the refs ruled that is for progress.

It stopped. So you can't go back and challenge that and say no. After that, there was a fumble. We recovered. But Sean Penn just essentially called a timeout because he was mad, frustrated. He called a timeout because he was mad. And then he wanted to make the refs watch the replay on the stadium. Jumbotron said they could see exactly how mad he was getting. Yes. Over their mistake, which I always love it when a coach says that I am a big, big detractor when it comes to coaches taking time out to think things over.

Yep, I think that you should just go with what your balls tell you in that situation. Don't take a time out. You just don't overthink it. But I'm a huge proponent, proponent of calling a timeout just because you're angry and wanting to know exactly how angry they are and how badly they're fucking you over, right? Yes. Yes.

Or 4pm game. Sciberras Who should be clear about who is for his own sake?

I just have one question for the Saints, Goodwin, for the Saints hard win, but Saints fans kind of see what everyone else sees and that Drew Brees, like there are some throws sometimes where he just like there'll be a guy wide open, ten yards on the field. No, just throw it in the ground using pitcher lingo. He doesn't have his best stuff anymore. He's not out there.

Shoven he at that the Saints have a ceiling in it is Drew Brees, his arm. And it's kind of been that way for the last couple of years.

And I don't like I don't know, I just like he did enough to win the game and the Bears had some baffling defense at times like that.

You know, like I said, going prevent the end of the first quarter or first half. But that's got to still make you a little nervous, because I don't know if the Saints are good enough to have every game be in the dome. And that's what the dome's different when when it's not.

But still, it's there's no there's no weather and everything. So, like, I, I feel like old quarterbacks aren't going to do well in the weather. What's it like December. What's going to happen, though, with Michael Thomas? Is he coming back? Are they going to. Oh yeah. Javon Wims defecates got paid by Michael Thomas to punch CCJ.

Gardner Johnson who wanted to. So we were with our new newest Higher Passell Penman's, who's a Louisiana guy, Ole Miss grad, and he said that C.J. Gardner Johnson tried to legally change his name to seduce. Do you remember him? Yeah. In the preseason sick. Yeah. Like KD Deuce is that or Michael Thomas was doing the Scout team wimps. Yeah. And prepared him extremely well by Suckerpunch.

And that was so weird. It was really weird. Fuck does he do. There has to be something did happen. Right. What was he doing. So I kept my eye on what's his name. Gardner Seduce Kiddo's. I kept my eye on CTD for the rest of the game and after every single play was over he does something that makes somebody want to punch him after every play. Yes, he is. He doesn't have a punchable face. We looked up his face.

His face looks perfectly fine.

It's a punchable ear about him after plays. Yeah. And so I guess right before that, he went up and he poked the poke, Alan Robinson, I think so he just like poked him, which is annoying as shit. If somebody gives you a wet willy, you should be allowed to stab them in the throat. I agree. But you need to escalate that shit yesterday. Yeah, but I don't know if Wims was going up to just, like, take him out because he saw the wet willy or the finger poke or the point.

I don't know. Or if he was just like Michael Johnson or Michael Thomas paid me or if he was like, you tried to snatch my chain, I don't know. It was there was some serious violence. It was very weird. But, yeah, the bears are just they're not good.

But when I say that, I mean, I said it right after Monday Night Football is like I love bears plus. Forgan since they covered I love I saw the line bears plus six against Titans. They're going to cover that. They are. Yeah. They're fucking might not win.

They're, they'll cover, they'll be in every game and I will keep believing and I will keep thinking that they're like just going to turn the corner in. That offense is going to click at some point man. He's going to be a genius and the line's going to block and Nick Foles is going to be Super Bowl MVP Nick Foles. None of that is going to happen. But in the back of my brain, my stupid dog brain, I think it's still pass.

You know what Matt Nagy's best hope right now is just to randomly put quarterbacks out there on any given drive. I think, guys, I think they should actually go back to you got a chance you've got a chance at putting Nick Foles out there randomly in the middle of a third quarter to where it's one of the good Nick Foles drives. And same thing with Mitch like I out there in the first quarter and have him do some more mobile stuff.

I think they just go back to college. Yes, because there are fewer than half, Mitch at least can use his feet.

And it's like I think I don't think Nick Foles is playing right now. Nick Foles is not playing better than what Mitch Rescue is possible.

Plus, if you keep switching quarterbacks, you keep getting that spark. Yes, right. You need a spark by putting it back. I'm sure that's true.

All right. Let's get to Dion then we'll wrap up real quick with Football Guy of the Week and who's back of the week.

All right. Coach Prime here with us as always, Sunday night. Recapping Week eight, a great week eight. Let's start with the biggest game of the weekend. The Steelers go into Baltimore and win a gutsy game like that was a game that if you looked at the halftime, the Steelers looked a little lost on offense, didn't think that they had any rhythm. They come out in the second half. They win that game. Your thoughts on that and maybe give me some thoughts on the matter, the thrower not having his best game?

Well, I'm upset with Lamar, the runner fumbling the ball in the red zone, which was a game changing, game altering. It was a red. When something like that happens, it's not going to end well. Now you're behind and you got to throw the come back and that makes you one dimensional. And that's tough. These guys are not a one dimensional team that can throw the ball when expected. They're not like that. The only way to have success throwing the ball is to the objective of Ron.

When you think in Iran, they throw they can throw a rock, they keep you off balance. They didn't have that today. Yeah, no.

And those two interceptions he threw were very, very bad. Obviously, the pick six was really bad. I also I saw that their offensive lineman, who I think just got paid his name is escaping me, got hurt. Are you worried at all about the Ravens offensive line? Because that's kind of where it all starts. And they miss Marshall Yanda Hall of Famer who retired after last year. But is that a bigger issue? It was Ronny Stanley got carted off.

Is that a bigger issue going forward where you're like they might not be able to do what they want to do in terms of running the ball, running the ball, running the ball?

The issue for me going forward, is there going to be a good of they're going to control the clock. They've got to keep that going because LeBron is running prowess, but defensively. They play good, but they they weren't lights out. They made some mistakes defensively that they don't normally make. This has been a really dominant defensive team and they didn't show that they didn't play the display that they did in the first half. But on second thought.

What about up in the NFC North? We had the Packers and the Vikings Vikings win 28 to 22 while they had the perfect formula that we like to talk about on the show. A great Vikings blueprint for victory is just limiting. Kirk Cousins throwing the ball. So they they said Dalvin Cook. He had thirty carries cousins, attempted 14 passes, completed 11 of them. So he had an OK game. But is this is a straight up like an indictment of the Packers defense, or is this one of my favorite words, an aberration?

Are we going to see the good Green Bay Packers next week?

Are you going to see the Packers? I think it was their due for a letdown and they underestimated the Vikings. You got to understand, any divisional rivalries are everything. It doesn't you can throw the records at the book, but the Vikings have been laying down all year long. So we did not expect this to happen under no circumstance. But they were prepared. Jim had them prepared. And when I did what they had to do, come back with a victory.

Do would you say that the Vikings are the best bad team in the NFL?

Oh. That's just that's a pretty good statement. Thank you. Although I'm not going to say I'm not going to say that, well, that's a good state.

We can throw out a couple other teams, give us your best bad team, because I actually think the Broncos today, they look dead in the first set and they come back and win that game. That's a very good, horrible team.

You guys try to belittle being make me feel bad. When the Cowboys have to run the wildcat in the pros, there's a problem. You guys try to belittle me to try to make me feel bad because I told you that was going to be a really good game and it was going to come down to the wire.

Did not say. He did say that. He did say it. So are the Broncos on your very good, bad team list?

There are good, bad the Broncos are good to the best good that he has to be without a shadow of a doubt. It's a tie between the Cowboys and the Falcons who are good and bad. I would not count the Cowboys as being a good bet. What games have you been watching? The Cowboys. The Cowboys are a shitty, bad team.

Yeah, the Bengals are a good, bad team. The Bengals are very good. Thank you.

But no, they're not Yevsey. You expect the Bengals to lose and when they mess around and win, you say, oh, man, they've got they've been in every game, though.

They have been in every game. They have a bad offensive line, a lot of injuries. And they beat a Titans team there. Two weeks ago, everyone was saying, look out for the Titans. The Titans are going to be an AFC, you know, contender. The title. What do you what are your thoughts on the Titans kind of falling back to Earth here with a Steelers loss that everyone can stomach and a Bengals loss that you can absolutely not stomach?

The tides are just uncertain. You just don't know who they're going to be from week to week. You don't know their true identity. You think they're running team? No, but the quarterback has been really playing really good football, throwing the ball. You think their dominant defensive team then? Bless you. Didn't they give up certain things defensively? You just don't know who they are. They truly don't have an identity. And that's not a good sign for a good team.

They don't have an identity. You can't count on nothing that they do right now.

What about stick with the AFC West right now? If we're just going with let's throw Patrick Mahomes out the window, OK? Let's say we're just talking about Derek Carr HERBUT and then Trulock between those three quarterbacks going off like their current situation right now, I'm talking the salary that they make, you know, the cap implications, all that stuff out of those three guys. Who would you want to be your quarterback right now?

I'll take CA because I know what I'm going to get. I don't know what those other guys are going to do. I don't.

I'll take ca would you take herbut over locker right now. Yep. In a heartbeat. So yeah. Yeah.

I mean that was, that was a good game, a good comeback game for Drew Lock. He still wasn't super accurate, but it was a good I mean the fact that they came back was, was impressive. So we talked before. There was a ton of wind today there was a ton of weather.

From a players perspective, can you rank like the weather and how much it sucks and how it can affect, like, whether it be wind, rain or snow, how it affects game plans and just wanting to be out there looking like a team like Kansas, Kansas City who throw, throw, throw wind or rain, I wouldn't pick I wouldn't pick them like a team like the Saints who played every game in a dome except this one. If it was really, really cold and windy, I wouldn't have picked.

When you guys told me what the temperature is going to be, I was waiting on that. I wanted to know what the temperature of the temperature was going to be. I wouldn't pick up like a Florida team going to play in the East Coast or somewhere where it's really Midwest and is really cold. I don't pick up in those type times of year. I don't pick them in November.

And you were long sleeves guy ramifications.

Yeah, you were long sleeves with the long sleeves that I was I think I played in one game that was like fifteen or 12 degrees that was in Green Bay and it was horrible. They did the break. So it was missile did you could wait to get back on the bus.

Did you ever think about becoming a no sleeves guy? Like, weren't you afraid that people would look at you like Diane Soft.

No, I didn't call you with sticks and stones. May break my bones. Words never guy. So can can you tell though like could you tell when you go to Green Bay and it's 15 degrees. Can you look around in the locker room, be like, nah, we don't want this. Like this is not.

I didn't go no no it didn't wait till we got to like when we got there the day before and they wanted us to walk out there on the field just to get a feel of it. We didn't get out the bus like, no, no, no, you're not especially specialist. Go out first. The kids like, no, I'm not going I'm not going out there to the stand to play. I'm doing.

Yeah, why? Why. See, that's the type of stuff that I love to like, learn about, because that's the human element of watch out when we when we get to November and December, these teams, you can you can pretend it doesn't matter, but it absolutely does. It's a warm weather up north. They don't want to play that.

They don't want you to know how you're big on the little hands. Yeah. Always visit you, but they look OK. You got to be big on it. Some quarterbacks can not play in the cold, can not play, do not pick. Like that's the kind of stuff you've got to really check their records. What is it when it's cold it cannot perform.

Yeah. Does that mean they like it to be what they don't like where they're from. Like a cowboy can't play in the cold mostly.

Yeah. Yeah.

Did you have those conversations with Troy like Troy. How, how are you going to be able to play. It's like thirty degrees outside. You're used to you know, seventy degrees every single day.

Well. He had five problems on the out of the gate, so it made it easy for him. That's true. It is much easier for you, I'm sure that you saw today.

But there was a little there was a skirmish. The boys were getting chippy today in the in the Saints Bears game. And it was the dude, C.J. Gorner Johnson. He's the guy that actually got punched in the face by Michael Thomas in practice. And he got into it with Javon Wims. We've asked you if you've ever punched somebody wearing a helmet. We should ask you from like the quarterback's perspective, have you ever been punched like in the in that earhole know when it's cold outside?

Because I imagine that would sting a little bit. I've never been punched, period, what have punched several men, you've never been much too fast. Oh, no, no, no, no, no, I too much respect. I don't I don't give up that bar that you can try me like that. I'm good with these things. As we say in you know, I've swung as I've swung so many men, many men. I feel like it's the more fight take.

Yeah I can some more fighting back. I know I need to hit you.

I think I need to be the first person to ever punch John Sanders. You will.

We will be in court because I would pay I would pay the would be worth it and you'd be like, you know, we would go to court. How much is this asking where I would go into writing the check right now because I'm swinging back.

Oh, man. I should we should at least try it. Yeah. I mean, that's unbelievable that you've never been punched. I've been punched several times. Right.

OK, we'll try it because you provoked it. You guys provoked it. Yeah. No, I just figure everyone has a plan to get punched in the face. Steve does provoke that. He they provoke, they provoke someone to harm his face. He wants them out of the parking space and just throw his head.

Just throw it.

All right. So my last question is so coming away from week eight, we still got a couple of games watching Sunday Night Football, Monday Night Football, but has give me, like, your top three teams. And has it changed because we had the Packers lose? Obviously, the Ravens lost. The Seahawks bounced back nicely.

So what's your what's your top three?

Top three is Casey. OK, here's number one. I would say Seahawks probably at number two, OK.

Paris is still is three, they still don't care about the basket abberation now. Yeah, yeah, the Packers are still three and then it would have to go between probably. The distillers in Baltimore is probably for this deal right now with one another. One team won today and one team lost.

So yeah, yeah, but they're still right there is still right there. OK, that game could win either way. You could win either one. Yeah, but it didn't.

And the Ravens have played some big games against the Chiefs, the Steelers and they've lost.

But you got to say that again, you got to say, OK, they came down the stretch in these minor mistakes. They could fix that. These are fixable things that they lost, this very fixable things that they lost. So really, sometimes the better team don't win is the better team. On that day, they made all the plays that wins, but the better team to to me today didn't win.

All right, Don, thank you. Appreciate it. We'll see you later this week. And yeah, go cowboys koochie dinge.

All right, let's wrap up.

We got football guy of the week and then a quick who's back football guy. The week is brought to you by our friends in Phillips Norelco, one blade football guy.

The Week presented by Phillips Norelco, one blade, the only tool that can trim, edge and shave. And he like the hair, pick up a mark one blade barstool pack nationwide where you could win up to a thousand dollars to the barstool store. And if you have your own football guy looks, we want to see them tweet your funniest gameday facial or body hair. Looks to that part of my take using TriMet to win it, hashtag TriMet to win it for a chance to win a special experience like playing around a Mario party, sitting in on an episode, recording or watch a Thursday night football game with us.

We're choosing one winner a month. Your style made simple Phillips Norelco One Blade Jake, who is our roll call? One Blade Football Guy of the week.

Funny you ask, we have four nominees starting off with your team. The Bears wide receiver Darnell Mooney, a rookie, used the money from his first NFL paycheck to buy a Juggs machine.

Hell, yeah. Yeah, I love that. Get those reps and get the sneaker. Get the seeker Buccaneers defensive end Jason Paul said he is going to, quote, destroy the Giants and, quote, ahead of a revenge game against the team that drafted him.

OK, it's going to be make some explosive plays out there. It's going to destroy the Giants. Florida head coach Dan Mullen, who showed up to his postgame press conference in full Darth Vader costume of the fight.

Yeah, I'm a dead man pumping up the crowd after the fight. Yeah, no biggie. He went out there to make sure all his players were off the field. Yeah. In the locker room so they could make out with his wife. Dan Mullen is on a nice little hot streak of football guys, because he also was like after they lost the Texas A&M and Texas A&M had a bunch of fans in the stadium. He was like, fuck this, this is unfair.

I want the swamp packed.

Yeah, this was the real question is, do you think that Dan Mones knew who Darth Vader was when you put the helmet on? Because that's not very much that's not a football guy. You know, like you remember when somebody asked Will Muschamp if he was like a Jedi Knight or something like, yes, he was like, I don't watch I don't watch movies. Yeah. I think he probably thought it was like the Scream mask. Yeah, definitely.

LASLEY Brown's Water. Seiver Rashard Higgins. He said he feels so close to Baker Mayfield that he feels like his, quote, mama gave birth to him. Whoa, whoa.

Sean, your relationship QB so a little disrespect there. His own mom, like how would you feel if you squirted out something the size of a watermelon, threw something the size of a wallet, and then he's giving that credit to somebody else? I feel pissed off. Yeah, I would say.

Yeah. All right. Vote in the poll. Yeah. Vote on the poll. Football game of the week presented by Phillips Norelco one blade and use that hashtag TriMet to win it.

Who's back of the week to end the show. Hank, are you over it. Yeah, I'm over it. Yeah. That was you needed a moment. We've all been there.

It was more because there's no sound so I just couldn't believe what was happening. We had an explanation but that's. Yeah. Recording the entire time. I was it was bullshit. It was.

Yeah. I moved on. Whatever my who's back the week is Mike D'Antoni. Yeah. That's kind of got swept under the rug I guess it happened on Friday so we didn't talk about it.

But the nets, I mean the nets are going to win the championship. How do they not. Why Steve Nash, they signed Mike D'Antoni as an assistant. Oh that's great. Amar'e Stoudemire. So they're going to be doing like the nets. There's going to be running like scrimmages against the nets and like the coaches versus the players. Yeah, he did battle.

You know, what I like about this is you taking Mike D'Antoni and you're just kind of taken away, like all the day to day real boring types of responsibilities that he has when he's a head coach and just being like, go come up with the weirdest shit that you can do as an assistant. Yeah, he's like their director of creativity. He's going to come up with the most fucked up styles of offense ever to bring to Steve Nash. And so I'm looking forward to the necessary.

This also just has the makings of like a Hollywood movie ending where it's like these guys revolutionize basketball.

They never won a title together and now they've won a title together. Yeah, that's definitely what's going to happen.

That's it for who's back. Yeah. Yeah. And they all sit well, nothing else. How was your weekend. It was good. We talked about at the top of the show. Yeah. Let's talk about again Norman.

Oh your dog's penis. How how many Teeny-Weeny Norman on Instagram, the Instagram handle is a joke, so here's the deal with Norman. He's a small dog, but so it's kind of tricky to figure out, like, how big is the penis exactly? Because he's a little guy in inches. How many how big exactly? Talking about your dog. Stick your neck. I don't know, six inches, seven inches. Wow, you guys saw it.

Wow, that's incredible. It's a huge, huge Titlist, huge penis.

Huge, really big. I'm happy for your dog is a legend.

Yeah. All right. Who's your who's back? My my who's back of the week is saving lives. Wear a mask. Oh, vote. Nice vote. Vote, wear a mask and vote and vote and vote. Twitter is going to be fun this week. Yep. Should be great.

If you went out the vote wear a mask while you're voting or don't you had to pick one or the other.

I would say I would prefer that you wear a vote, wear the sticker after you vote. So we know you vote for you vote for masks. They should give away that. They should do the mask. That's a sticker instead. I voted mask. Oh, just a huge one. Yeah. Or just sold that. How about a sticker that says vote and you put it over your own face so you shut the fuck up about telling people to vote or wear or a sticker that says my mask is up here.

So and you look at your child like like yeah.

I would also wear a sticker of Normy. Yeah. Well to me we should make buttons. We should.

Or Murchú. Yeah, I would absolutely wear as long as the eyes are blocked out. So we didn't know who was a dog boner just to shock people.

Yeah. We should give we should make like a dog sweater for Norman says I'd rather be wearing a magnum.

You make a Christmas sweater for me. Yeah, that would be good. Cartoony eyes. It's not as graphic. What about candles. Yeah. Candles to make normy candles. Don't miss metalworks. Mothers back of the week is voting. Yeah. Masquerade mask wearing. All right, my who's back.

Put that on a graphic for you Liam. Circus peanuts, black licorice, candy corn. And what's the candy, pumpkin candy pumpkins. Those are for for top my cheeks. Mount Rushmore, all tied for number one.

He's our guy. He's one football guy the year.

But the knives are back out for Jim Harbaugh.

That which is a tough, tough weekend all around for the Harbaugh clan. Yeah, that was a tough one. So losing two, I was never good. There is something about Jim Harbaugh that he attracts, such like visceral negative energy when he fails. That is like it's shocking.

Some of the articles I read, they're very mean. Very, very mean. Yeah. So he doesn't beat Michigan State ever or Ohio State ever. And they totally aren't what they think they are.

Whatever may try not to be as me, but there is close to being what they think they are as they have been in a long time.

No, no. No more Michigan. No, no, they're not. The last time Michigan was was closer than this to being what Michigan thinks that they are. Nineteen seventy. No.

So they obviously want to split championship in 1997. I they know they were. The Harbaugh era has peaked and gone. The JT Barrett when they're an inch away, that was the peak they that Thanksgiving's on the other side. Seventeen. It's on the other end. Yeah. This is they are in massive trouble now because they don't get recruits. And I think this is actually might be close to the end for Harbaugh, but good for Harbaugh.

He'll get like the buyout in dollars to coach the Jets walk away. I will.

I'll also not coach Michigan for thirty million dollars or however much they're going to pay him. Yep. But if you're hardball, you don't have to go to the Jets now. You can go even shoot. You can aim a little bit easier than Falcons.

Yeah. You just need to get like you had it with the 49ers. You need to get away to get Greg Roman and Vic Fangio again. Yeah, that might help. That's true. That might be part of. And Jim Tomsula. Yeah, that might be. Part of what helped, but, yeah, it's it's bad, it's it's it's bad and we like Jim Harbaugh, he's a friend of ours. I just I'm saying is I think it's over.

I really do like twenty four twenty four and a half point favorites against Michigan State, which is like in total overhaul mode with Mel Tucker. And they lose like that and they have like an entire defensive scheme built around cornerbacks playing man, man, man to man football. And they just don't recruit them like everything. Just he doesn't have a guy. The craziest thing about Jim Harbaugh right now is like he hasn't had a quarterback in an age when every quarterback transfers.

Like you can get a five star in a second now because they all transfer like Justin feels he wasn't.

He came from Georgia, you know, I mean, like guys transfer everywhere. So it's just I think it's over.

It might be I think it might be. But also you could just if you're Harbaugh, you can just point at 2020 to be like, you know, it's 20/20. Yeah. Like everything's kind of weird and fucked up. But he did want to play twenty twenty. That's the. I know. I know.

Like, you got to you know, and like if you didn't have a team that could you could have saved your job if you didn't think your team was very good to just play the like. I want the safety of my guys.

I just think that twenty twenty is a perfect excuse for anybody. It doesn't matter what job you get fired this year, but I just feel like he's on the road. Twenty twenty was a fucked up year for all of us. Yeah. It doesn't really count. What do you say we just do it over and they play Indiana next week.

Shout out Indiana. The Rose Bowl goes through Bloomington. I think Indiana is going to be favored, which is when would when would you ever think Indiana would be favored over Michigan in football?

Football? Yeah, never. All right, Jake, I know a big fuck you to the refs in the in the game. I know. How dare you, sir. How dare you. It was a fun. You take away seventy one. You take the best play in the history of college football when Seventy-one throws the ball to hands over his head like 12, 15 yards backwards. Brutal. It was the best play that I've ever seen. You also who's back the week is Texas.

Texas back? Yes. Big time back.

Big J's doing their homework. So Boston College versus Clemson. Oh yeah. It's Hostetter. Happen to know the holder that he played multiple positions in college. We're growing up. It was a son.

Was that was that moment from a broadcasters. Your I would say a super fan of broadcasters. Was that moment the greatest moment sports moment in your life? Oh, it's like other moment, yeah.

Did you watch it as it happened?

I was walking back from lunch. Hank tweeted it out, man. I saw it.

I was it just like started to cry. Did you cry? No. I was like, I want to cry because like there are times when I hear I see something and I want to cry.

When I was watching it live, I was like, what tests or tests? Like, Joe must be loving this. But I was like, oh, and he was very obviously very professional about it. I can't even say that's my son. That's my son.

Right. I thought he was a little well, no, he was professional. It was like, oh he was like he grew up playing quarterback is like, no, every fucking kid plays quarterback and running back and coming up. I'm just glad that I was definitely like like if you if he was a regular player, he would have been like he played quarterback.

And when he was in elementary school, I'm glad that Joe was my son. Similar to ruin that moment for him. Yeah. Just went and definitely would have been like, wait, he has the same name as you like. He would he would have. Absolutely. You know that guy.

Yeah. That's great. That, that is insane Joe. But yeah, I think that it actually worked out better for this to be the play that he got. The call is way better that it was like some scrappy. Yeah. Like cerebral type fucked up weird scheme play that big hammered. Yeah.

First out it's in Death Valley. Yeah. It's in Death Valley. If it had just been like a if his son had gotten out there and like caught a ninety nine yard touchdown pass for some reason it would not have seemed as cool as the way that the game will go.

Laloux that guy's a real deal. We got a dude, he's got a fucking rocket.

All reminded me of in sandlot when the Jets the home and Smalls was in the.

Yeah yeah yeah. It's like. That's right. Yeah yeah. Yeah. Well you cried. Yeah you cried. Oh and also D.J. we go, we go.

Layla is 250 pounds. I just, I want to remind people that he's a big guy. He's got to. Do you know how big is. Twenty twenty six.

Number eight. I'm taking eight uyanga lullay Wyangala likeability. Well syllables takes because piece of shit too. All right. I'm taking a young girl and he'll never listen to this. Forty to eighteen.

Eighteen, eighteen, twenty six to eight bullets of what. Two to. Forty eight, 48, it's a never been used before 40. All right, 48. Chelsea Clinton fan. There you go. That's our show. We'll see everyone on Wednesday. Remember, Wednesday is a huge Tuesday, huge day NFL Free Agency and Wednesday match trade deadline big time. John Kerry make Ryan Kerrigan, where's this leader in D.C. going to end up? That's going to be talking about also, how come we didn't talk about this earlier?

Dick Metcalf posting an R excuse me, LeBron LeBron James posting a story on his Instagram, referring to Dick Metcalf as Baby Bron missing. This guy's really good. He's baby. I would be so pissed off if I was Dick Mac. And I'm going to actually I should start being like, what about if you're born Barney and you're actually like Joe Rogan, baby? Yeah, this guy's got something.

Maybe I'll just have to for his baby. Brown will get a five. Yeah. All right. Well, let me go back to talking on the I don't know what to say. I'm saying today is I'm not going to follow. On the other side. It's the better to be safe, say. Oh, oh. Dave. Oh. It's pardon my tape presented by bar stools by.
