Yeah, look the boys are good today. That was a good team chemistry 3:21 Seasons all the way back. I had about 5% left in my hope tank hope tanks 3:26 Unfortunately filled like three three-quarter tank right now. Wow. That's good to know 3:30 So even though it looks like Baker's gonna be out extended period of time Jalen Daniels showed you enough next man up 3:36 You know, is he the guy? Uh next man up for right now. He's doing he had I mean he had a 3:42 Bounds of improvements from last game. Oh 3:44 He was great. He started out kind of on fire. 3:47 He played great. 3:48 Like he didn't turn the ball over. 3:50 He he commanded the offense. 3:52 He took a few shots earlier. 3:53 Like he got he got pounded in the first opening drive. 3:56 And then I think he realized I can't do that. 3:59 But he did enough. 3:59 What he did. Well, the Cowboys defense will get to the Cowboys. 4:03 They're they're poo poo. 4:04 But he did enough to make it so that you had to at least respect his arm. 4:08 And then Bucky Irving was phenomenal. 4:09 Yeah. And the Bucks defense played great. 4:12 Bucky broke a big one. 4:12 He picked up the big yards. We need to buggy's feet didn't stop moving the entire game 4:17 Yeah, he doesn't he would still way after the whistle to just to let you know 4:20 I could have got two or three more if I needed to and then 4:23 They was able to just like extend a couple plates with his legs like oh, okay 4:26 If you don't give me the space, I'll take it. He take it pick up two easy first downs. It was nice 4:29 Yeah, I thought I thought um Todd bulls looks so relieved at the end of the game 4:34 Oh, yeah 4:34 When it came down to make that decision whether or not to kick a field goal or go for it on fourth down 4:38 He always has this look on his face when he has to make a decision and it always looks like he's he's in the smelliest room 4:44 Like somebody just farted next to him. He is like nose crinkles up 4:48 I think he's trying to do math in his brain and that's never a good place for him to be and he always 4:53 I don't know how he does it. It's actually remarkable. I don't think he's ever made the correct decision on whether to go for or not 5:00 That's one of the cases where like old conservative Todd would have done a good job 5:04 just kicking a field goal go up by 17 points. You said it exactly when it 5:08 happened you're like Todd Bowles will never do this again. And so now the fact 5:11 that he made he made the wrong decision by going for it they didn't get it and 5:15 now Todd Bowles forget about it he's never gonna go for a fourth down ever 5:18 again. Do you know what I think what happened to Todd Bowles in that situation? 5:21 I think he's just like he's like I see all these young bucks going for it. 5:25 Yeah. I'm gonna do it I'm gonna be the guy but it's like the one time. 5:28 You shouldn't yeah. The Bears had it last week where they where 5:32 We had like fourth and four in the in the red zone and Ben Johnson said after he's like yeah 5:36 When you can go up 17 you go up 17 like what was he doing? It makes no sense. I think he gets so confused 5:43 I think he gets dizzy when he tries to do math 5:46 That you can see the decision-making going 5:48 Confliction going on in his head and then every time last second 5:51 He'll just look to whoever's directly to his right or left hoping they have something to say yeah 5:55 Completely indecisive every time and somehow it's net a lot of the times never the right call 6:00 He's like looking around and he's like chuckling a little bit to himself 6:03 He's like I got myself in this pickle once again. What am I gonna do? 6:07 He's hoping that somebody's gonna like authoritatively come up to him anybody 6:11 It would be anybody that say next to him and just go hey Todd. You got to kick it here. Yeah. He's like, yeah 6:16 I was about to say yeah, we should we should definitely take the points 6:20 It's uh, it's awesome those act because you do you you are like your season is I know it's only one win 6:25 But you have a game against the Steelers next week and then you have two division games 6:29 So if you go if you can win those two division games like you're all the way back in this season whole different script 6:35 Yeah, this was a scheduled loss like even even with before the season you thought you'd make lose this game on a short 6:41 I mean, I just I was so impressed with Jill and Daniels 6:44 I actually think that like I I did a bad job of saying he played good 6:48 He played great given the circumstances short week 6:51 Going to Dallas on the road like knowing going into the game that Dallas's offense is explosive 6:58 and you have to play not perfect, but close to perfect. 7:01 Jalen Daniels was awesome. 7:02 Yeah. 7:03 And no, did the Cowboys have a good game? 7:05 No, but does that take anything away 7:07 from what they're able to do as a team? 7:08 Well, yeah, but he was like, he was decisive. 7:11 He was, he had a quick release. 7:13 He was accurate. 7:14 Like that's, he did exactly what he was trying to do. 7:17 There's two things that happened to the Cowboys. 7:18 One, we all knew and they just suck on defense. 7:22 They're so bad at tackling. 7:24 They're just so like the ball control, 7:26 the Bucks were able to exhibit was insane felt like the Cowboys just didn't have the ball. The second 7:31 is you expect their offense to be awesome. CD Lam I know he got hurt. He was he was nothing when he 7:37 was out there. Jake Ferguson like a couple balls on including the end the game ceiling interception 7:43 off his hands. Dak never got into a real rhythm other than like hitting George Pickens. 7:49 Their offense has to be perfect because their defense is so bad. 7:53 Dax sucked tonight. You didn't like playing simple. He got in a rhythm a little bit in the when they were down 24 10 7:58 Right, right. Yeah, that last drive was was good, but Dax sucked tonight 8:02 Yeah, this is a bad game especially compared to how he's been playing this year where he's played like close to MVP caliber football 8:08 Through four games, but I mean if you follow the Cowboys for any period of time, you know that this is going to happen 8:14 This is just that's just what they do. This is this is Dallas football 8:18 There's a 31 year track record of it happening again and again 8:23 They're gonna look awesome people are gonna say oh, maybe this is the year for the Cowboys and then you're gonna realize 8:28 Oh, yeah, this is an extremely flawed football. Well, yeah 8:31 Like going off a huge win against Houston where they come back and all that and all the vibes 8:36 And then they're like oh we get to play an oh and four team at home. The Cowboys, but about to roll 8:41 No, a good team 8:44 At least finds a way to win even if it's a Thursday night and and the other team plays like their hairs on fire 8:49 They're defenses so bad. It's it's actually I is I'm gonna say something that is gonna sound crazy 8:57 I actually feel bad for Cowboys fans because watching a defense that cannot get off the field is a 9:05 torture that 9:06 Like we've all experienced at some point 9:08 I'll eat you can't you can't describe the torture that it feels like when you just cannot get off the field and the other 9:14 team just possesses the ball and they just get, you know, first down, five-yard run, second down, 9:20 even if it's incompletion. Okay, we'll get it on third down. The Bucks had the ball for 40 minutes 9:24 tonight. 40 minutes at our longest drive since 2007. Yeah. In terms of time. You took up like 9:30 the entire half of the first quarter, the second half of the first quarter was it was just Bucks 9:35 going on a 90-yard drive. Yeah, it was one possession each in the first. And then for 9:39 most of the game, we had him play our game. Yeah. Like we had decent amount of control. 9:43 Seven for 13 on third down, like, yeah, the box, listen. 9:48 I'm not gonna say that they're good, 9:50 but your season at least has life. 9:52 Anything's better than what it's been 9:54 for the entirety of the season, so. 9:56 Are you, how many, are you a Steelers win? 9:59 So if you win next week away from starting 10:01 to get really mad about the first four games. 10:04 Cause you know that could like retroactively happen 10:06 where you're like, God damn it, 10:08 how did we not win one of those? 10:09 If we if we pick up both the divisional games, I'll look at like weeks one and two like 10:17 What's going on? Yeah, what the hell happened here because we talked about it 10:20 What I think was last week the difference between one and four and two and three 10:24 Psychologically massive 10:27 So but you guys are back in the Cowboys. There's just something beautiful 10:31 As much as I feel bad for their fans. There's something beautiful about watching Jerry Jones 10:35 Just have a meltdown in his 10:38 sweet on national television. 10:41 You know, one thing that we didn't get, 10:43 I don't know if this is like an Amazon deal 10:44 if Jeff Bezos made a special bargain with Jerry Jones. 10:49 We didn't see the sad Cowboys fans. 10:52 No. 10:52 They didn't do the traditional pan through the crowd. 10:54 You're right. 10:55 Where you see people crying. 10:56 You see like the guys wearing the giant jean shorts, 11:00 like bearing their face and tears 11:02 in their girlfriend's shoulder. 11:04 Like you usually get something very funny 11:05 or like a sad cowboy fan kid, we didn't get any of that tonight 11:10 and it felt very off brand. 11:11 Usually it's like, that's a must have shot 11:13 at the end of any loss. 11:14 Yeah, yeah, it's true. 11:16 We were robbed of that. 11:17 We're absolutely robbed of that. 11:19 How long has it been since the bucks covered? 11:21 They covered last week. 11:22 Last week. 11:23 Yeah, people were throwing around the stat 11:24 trying to like, it was almost, 11:26 I saw a couple of people tweeting it 11:27 like they haven't covered in 13. 11:29 It was almost like they decided 11:31 they were gonna do the stat to get some impressions. 11:33 They covered three and a half last week. 11:34 Okay. Yeah, they lost by three of the Packers. So now they're on a streak 11:39 Doubled up 12 is in the past two covers in a row. Yeah, I'm talking about an outright win is eight eight and a half point dog 11:46 Hank are you you're mad? 11:48 Never the Cowboys again 11:51 No, yeah, I'm that's that's that's survivor pools. Oh, that's it's always I looked at mine and there was like 15 of us left 11:56 I think nine of us had the cow. Yeah, that's that's the NFL 11:59 Yeah, the Cowboys are allowing Thursday night. Any time there's a there's a seven or more point favorite on a Thursday night 12:06 But this is like this happens every year 12:08 I know this one was so so hard to take though because you had the unknown really of Jalen Daniel's money line 12:14 Yeah, but the spread was 12:17 The Cowboys are allowing six point four yards per play 12:21 worst in the NFL 12:23 The most rush yards per game allowed in Dallas Cowboys history 12:27 The first was in their inaugural season of 1960, 186.8. 12:35 Second place is this year, 168.8. 12:39 They just don't tackle. 12:40 No. 12:41 Caleb Downs is the only guy that knows how to tackle on that team. 12:43 They take the worst angles. 12:45 Bad angles and their linebackers just arm tackle and they plant their feet just really 12:51 really bad, but also watching that as a division foe. 12:57 I told Max, even the Eagles have a chance 12:59 to win the division this year. 13:00 Eagles are favorites in the division. 13:01 Yeah, I know, I know. 13:03 You said that seriously though, not as a bit. 13:05 No, Max, I was telling you that like, 13:09 even though you're rebuilding, you should win the division. 13:12 They are plus 130 to win the division. 13:14 Yeah, and you should, 13:15 the Cowboys should not win the division. 13:17 I'm not saying that. 13:18 I had to fight with everyone in the cave 13:20 about how that that was so disrespectful for you to even say like it was like you max you still 13:26 have hope you can you can you can do this when we're favorites to win i don't know if you said it 13:30 like that yeah i would matt no but then i was fighting with everyone else about like oh yeah 13:33 you're gonna blow the the whole team's blowing up you're rebuilding blah blah blah and it's like 13:37 we're favorite we're favorites okay you are you are rebuilding but there's been a lot of talk 13:41 of rebuild the last couple days by fans i'm telling you the eagles should the cowboys 13:47 are not the best team in that division. I don't know who's the best team in that division. 13:51 It's not a good division. It's not a good division but even the Eagles can win. Yeah. 13:56 Hear that Max. You got this buddy. We're gonna fucking scrap right in your guy's face. 14:01 Don't scrap in my face. I'm scrapping your face. No, no, no. Before we talk. 14:05 I'm gonna muck it up right in your face. So much muck. Before we talk playoff baseball, 14:09 two updates to our preview because we did it earlier in the day. One, 14:12 Sean Payton is now fully taking control of the play calling. 14:18 When we did our preview, it was a collaborative effort. 14:23 I think the collaboration lasted four hours. 14:26 So who was it? 14:26 Was it David Smith? 14:27 No, what was his name? 14:28 Webb. 14:29 Webb, yeah, yeah. 14:31 Webb, that sucks for him. 14:33 He basically, it's like the reverse 14:36 of being the hot coordinator. 14:39 It was four weeks like, yeah, you're dog shit. 14:41 and and you don't really know how much is his problem and how much is on bonix but 14:47 you have to know if you take that job that the very first thing people are going to say 14:52 is hey why isn't Sean Payton calling the place right like you have that one of the best guys 14:56 ever to do it why isn't he so it's it was kind of like he was set up to fail unless it was a 15:00 perfect offense i also don't know like couldn't Sean Payton just call the plays and not say 15:04 anything that's what i was thinking he was going to do is just secretly yeah yeah on the other 15:07 update. This one sucked for the bears. Kalmanangai has turf toe. I don't know what if he's good. 15:13 I think he's going to try to play. But when we get to bears packers, I talked about how I expect 15:17 them to dominate Kalmanangai not playing. If he doesn't play that changes things a little bit 15:22 because the Andre Swift has had Fumbleitis. We also I've said we said this a million times 15:28 need a new word for turf toe. It is so much more painful than it sounds. 15:31 When you see the words turf toe, you're like, dude, just you're fine. Like you stubbed your 15:35 toe. Yeah, on the turf. You're fine. But it's way more pain. 15:39 His foot is fucked. Yeah. Yeah. So that's bad. Okay, playoff 15:43 baseball. Let's start with Wednesday night. The Yankees are 15:47 a joke. The rays are really, really good. The Yankees are a 15:51 joke though. All they do is get to the ALDS or ALCS and then 15:56 we have a bunch of our co workers who are diehard Yankees 15:59 fans tweet helplessly saying you need to change everything 16:03 you need to try to blow it up, get rid of Cashman, get rid of Boone, and nothing changes. 16:09 I feel bad for them because they are just helpless in the fact that they cannot, they 16:12 just every year is the same tweet. 16:14 And then that same tweet was kind of vocalized by Aaron Judge after the series and the 16:19 interview that he gave after the series talking about how like they've got, they 16:22 need to figure out what the holes are and they have to fill them. 16:25 He was talking like a guy that played in the series. 16:27 Yeah. 16:28 It was kind of shy. 16:28 It seemed like, like if you listen to him talk, you'd think this is a guy 16:32 that just went out there and hit like 400 and and four home runs in a five game series 16:38 and they lost the way he's talking about how to how to rebuild the team after this. Yeah, 16:43 kind of shocking to hear that from him. But he's also not wrong. No. But I mean, I don't 16:48 know what you're going to do that they're they've been doing the exact same strategy 16:50 for the last it feels like seven years. They always have one or two innings and big series 16:57 Crucial series that they just fuck up with errors 17:01 Bad bad night in the field last night. Yeah from from the Yankees. Hey, can I ask a question? Yes 17:06 Can we put on the playoff baseball instead of a golf tournament that's taking place? Who what are they? 17:11 How's our golf on the bay current classic? They're in Japan 17:14 Can we put on the playoff game? The white socks have two on in the bottom of the ninth down nine five 17:19 And let off the inning with a Homer and let off the inning with a gamer game. How were they playing golf still? 17:26 If I did be current man, can you get can you change it and say don't put it on here? Yeah 17:31 Can we get baseball? 17:36 Bridge he just rolled his eyes about the bay current classic that's since that's an insane IRL 17:43 Here's all say before I before I change for what? 17:47 Be played in our no, but this is so performative because like I could have just turned like if I didn't 17:51 And you guys wouldn't be like oh Hank why did I immediately said that the White Sox led the inning off with a homer 18:00 I was following it big cat was falling it on my on my computer 18:04 I've got I've got the the play-by-play on I same. I was like this is actually something we should monitor 18:11 But you didn't say anything when we walked in the studio because it was 18:14 But now it's a thing. Yeah, it's become an elevator 18:18 You didn't have to knock the big current 18:23 I 18:24 Just can't believe this golf still it's also 11 o'clock at night. How the fuck is their golf on? 18:30 Where's this being played in Japan? It's delightful. It's in Japan 18:34 Who is playing everyone's playing a max homeless fucking dial all right go max 18:40 Go max go. Oh, Kevin Williams in the game. He's gonna be their starter on Saturday. I'll be grounded a double player right now 18:49 All right, I just you I think that was an unnecessary ricochet. You could have just said could you please put the way 18:53 No, no, that was not a ricochet. That was a direct shot. Yeah, I'm necessary golf on in October at 11 p.m.. At night on a Thursday 19:00 That's an you sports podcast. I guess not 19:04 Sports international 19:05 Told you to turn this off to watch dancing with the stars, but like 19:11 Dancing a sport the Bay current classic who could forget. No respect 19:16 It's the sixth major no respect. Yeah, it's that even that's a game. Is that the PJ Toro? Yeah 19:22 No, what is it? How it is a PJ Toro? No, it's Japan. Yeah, it is FedEx Cup 19:26 PGA professional is that not PGA of America? No, it's a different. That's a different lead. How is how is it the PGA tour? 19:34 They do events in the fall 19:36 In Japan events in Japan. Yeah in October. Yeah 19:41 That's weird 19:43 Good good had a fall event until the Coway stuff. What happened with them? 19:48 All right 19:49 Yeah, the Yankees are I mean the rays are just really good 19:52 So it's more about the rays like they were really good all year. They are a perfect 19:57 We'll actually talk about it with Rizzo 19:58 He gives some good insight into like the rays organization and how they work small ball small ball and just coaching 20:07 But the Yankees are a joke the Dodgers 20:10 Well before we before that what I don't want to call for people's jobs. Yep 20:20 Whoever is 20:21 The VIP ticketing person for the Yankees that stuck Dua Lipa next to Marlins man 20:28 One of the worst like I felt so bad for do I think what like absolute night like Dua Lipa will never go to a Yankees game again 20:36 I saw that and ever and my thought was the ticket salesman 20:41 It was a salesman. That's like the VIP 20:45 Yes, they're like, oh, we got two tickets for you. We got you. I think coordinator Marlon thought was they know exactly 20:50 Oh, that's that but that's evil. That's evil. Yes. Yeah, I agree. I agree 20:55 Would you guys like to know what Marlins man texted me please not really but please well 21:00 He texted me go to Twitter search Marlins man hit latest. Yeah 21:04 Yeah. 21:05 Smart. 21:06 Humble. 21:07 Humble as ever. 21:08 Our humble king. 21:09 Marlin's man, I've noticed and I don't want to say anything disparaging about Marlin's 21:14 man because the Lord knows he would not do that about us. 21:18 Marlin's man seems to be paying less attention than he did in the past. 21:23 Don't say that. 21:24 Like he's always on his phone. 21:26 Don't say that, PFT. 21:28 Always. 21:28 Like it's not, I think he watches like six pitches a game now. 21:33 No, it can't be possible. Have you not noticed that? 21:37 Oh, yeah. I was locked in. I was I was like here. 21:40 Well, I know because he used to watch like half the game. 21:43 He's not. He left early. Wow. He left early. 21:46 His crypto buddy in Hank. Not a double play. 21:50 All right. White Sox down to their last out in game four. 21:54 Dodgers win again. 21:56 Do you see the Dodgers like the way they celebrate? 21:58 It's like basically winning a series in the middle of July. 22:01 Yeah, they're just what do you think scuba like I saw that where it's like scuba and and 22:06 Haster's act like he's been there before even though he hasn't well 22:11 No, he didn't get to a CS. Did he know he was he pitched in the DS. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, he yeah 22:18 There was butts out in the Dodgers 22:21 They're just 22:23 dude 22:24 They just do it like we were talking about Kike Hernandez having 17 home run 22:28 I we didn't meant Max Muncie hit a home run. Do you hit a home run last night? 22:33 Yeah, you know Max Muncie has 19 postseason home runs. You know Max Muncie is 22:40 he he is 22:42 the 22:44 Seventh most postseason home runs. All right the game's over. Yeah, the Guardians. We just miss likes call more cow 22:50 I'm making par for that. All right. Get it back on get the big crest back up 22:52 No, no, I want the big current big current back on 22:55 The Dodgers have three guys who are in the top 20 of baseball all time postseason home 23:04 runs. Freddie Freeman, Max Muncie and Kike Hernandez. And I will say this. I can't I can't 23:13 stand what the Braves did on Wednesday night. Now, there was an error that was a brutal 23:20 error to tie the game up. But Tyler Maul was pitching like great. He gave up an unearned 23:28 run in in like whatever it was the second inning. He was at 85 pitches and they pulled them. 23:34 I don't know why managers do this. He was pissed too. Do you see him when he's getting 23:39 taken off the mound? He was like, what the fuck? And then the game just fell apart 23:42 after that. Yeah, I mean, the pitching not great. 23:45 They just didn't hit for shit though. That's the thing like the Braves sucked on offense 23:48 throughout the postseason and it's been a recurring issue with them going back the last like 23:54 ever since they won the World Series. Here's the stat. They won the World Series, which by the way, 23:59 they did without Acunia. Yeah. And it was a bunch of guys that were like filling in. I said at 24:03 the time, like, are the Braves better without Acunia? Just to fuck with Braves fans. It turns 24:09 out I was right about that. That was the best that they were ever going to get. They never 24:13 approached that level in the postseason. Acunia probably he might not be a brave next season. 24:18 there'll be teams lined up I would imagine for that name even though he 24:22 doesn't produce in the postseason but yeah they're not they're not happy with 24:26 their offense down in Atlanta. Braves fans are not happy with Ronald 24:30 Acuna. No he sucks in the postseason. He got booed so hard. Did you guys see this 24:35 stat if you saw it don't answer but they had the Braves had 23 opportunities 24:40 with runners in scoring position against the Dodgers how many hits did they get? 24:43 one I did not see this one yeah one for 23 it's the it's the second worst batting 24:52 average with runners in scoring position in a postseason series in MLB history 24:56 behind only the Dodgers in the 1966 World Series who are 0 for 22 yeah that's 25:02 insane one for 23 with a guy on second or third base we don't talk about 25:09 Braves fans misery a lot because they do they make the postseason like every 25:13 year yeah they always they're always a good team they always somehow they win 25:18 the division they get the wildcard they're always there and they did win a 25:22 World Series back was at 20 21 I think but the life of a Braves fan is like you 25:29 win a World Series once every 30 years and in between you just get kicked in 25:34 the dick every October yeah and it's never really close yeah so this is just 25:39 more the same. Yeah. And the Dodgers are the Dodgers. And now 25:42 we have all time NLCS Dodgers and Brewers Brewers win the 25:46 series which was is who did the the closest for was it Mike 25:52 Greenberg when the when the Lakers got swept. He's like it 25:55 was the closest sweep ever. That was the the the nuggets and 25:58 the Lakers Lakers that was the closest three one series when 26:03 you could ever have because the Padres were right there but 26:06 the Brewers just they're they were the better team. They 26:09 got bigger hits. I mean play better defense. Yeah. So South 26:12 Freilich is a stud. I it's going to be awesome watching the 26:15 Dodgers of Burrs. Best two teams in the NL all season long and 26:19 going head to head. I think we're going to get a different series 26:24 than we did last year when it was a sweep by the Dodgers. I'll 26:26 say it best. Best two teams of baseball. Best two teams of 26:29 baseball. This is the real world series. Razor. Razor 26:32 good. Razors. The razors. It's probably because I'm an NL 26:35 guy, not a nail guy, even watching that that 26:37 race Yankees series. 26:39 I just looked at that as the Yankees fucking suck. 26:42 Well, I know the rays are good. 26:43 Raise the rays are good. 26:44 The show and we just we continuously overlooked. 26:47 Yeah, but it is. 26:48 It's a bit in you to overlook them. 26:50 It's the best team at baseball by record 26:52 and how they played all regular season in the Brewers. 26:55 And then the team that was like, you knew they were just going to be there 26:58 and they have the highest ceiling in the Dodgers. 27:00 Is Tampa having a moment right now? 27:02 That's a sports town. Maybe. 27:04 Maybe. 27:04 Some are saying. 27:05 Yeah. 27:06 And the Brewers have home field advantage now. 27:08 They didn't last year, right? 27:09 They might have last year. 27:10 Did they last year? 27:11 I think they might have. 27:11 They 100%. 27:12 100%. 27:13 They definitely did. 27:13 The Dodgers didn't even get a buy last year. 27:14 Yeah, they definitely did. 27:15 Yeah. 27:16 So kind of weird stat. 27:18 We just looked this up the other day. 27:19 June 6, 2025, the Brewers were 34 and 29. 27:23 Me and Aaron threw out the first pitch since then, 172 and 102. 27:28 They're really good by far best record, but they've been really, really good. 27:31 The point is for the last like year and a half, they have been the best team 27:34 They got to get there though. They just have to beat the Dodgers. I think everybody's rooting for them to beat the Dodgers 27:40 You're not I don't like the first you'd rather have the Dodgers. Yeah, I don't care 27:45 Hard for the bird. Yeah, I'm just being honest. I'd written hard 27:48 I'm not gonna be like go Dodgers go, but I would like the Dodgers to be the first crew. Yeah, bro 27:54 And the bruises are just own the cubs right now. I can't I can't I'll be honest to you 27:58 They they they fuck us up every single year drives me nuts 28:01 I would at least I could just be like all the Dodgers spend so much more money 28:04 That's why they won at the Brewers when it's like, what's the Cubs excuse? 28:08 I would root for any team in baseball, maybe except for the Yankees. Oh, I think every Cubs fans over the Dodgers in this 28:14 Yeah, I was asked that on Wato and Sylvie today, and they all were like, yeah, 100% Dodgers. Yeah problem 28:19 any team in baseball over over the Dodgers the Yankee I would root for the Dodgers over the Yankees 28:24 That's the only exception. I was rooting for the Dodgers over the Braves in this series 28:28 But yeah, that's the same thing. Yeah, exactly. If you have a 28:32 Division rival, you're gonna probably just be like fine. Just let the Dodgers win and just be like, oh baseball's broken 28:37 It's it's an easy way to go to bed at night to just like baseball is broken 28:40 So if the Dodgers win the World Series if it's if it's Dodgers, I will not be rooting for the Dodgers in the World Series 28:46 That's for sure. I would definitely be rooting for the Rays 28:50 Over them if it's Dodgers 28:52 White Sox 28:53 I'll just be like 28:55 I'll just be like whatever I don't care like whatever happens happens if it's just kind of remove myself mentally from it Dodgers raise 29:01 That is the ultimate like 29:04 Which way is you're going to be the future of baseball because everyone's gonna make it mean something so if the raise when the world series 29:10 It's like baseball is not broken. Yeah small market teams 29:13 They can win to owners will be like we don't have to spend that that much 29:17 Right raise do if the Dodgers win then the owners will be like baseball is broken lockout. Yeah, yeah 29:22 up. We're going to get a lockout anyway. Although we do have new rules that we're taking away 29:26 baseball games. It's actually I'm fine with that. 154. 154. Yeah. And then what would 29:31 it be? You can pick your own opponent. So basically reseeding, which they should have 29:37 been doing forever because I think I think basketball should do this too. Yeah. Pick 29:41 your opponent is fun. Yeah. Because that great bulletin board. Right. Yeah. Calling 29:45 them out. And it like it gives the teams at the top a reason to like fight towards 29:50 the end too. And is it also the DS would be seven games? Was that the other change? 29:54 Yes. Which I agree with that. I agree too. Yeah, that's way better. 29:58 Well, yeah, if you're doing less games. Yeah, yeah, that's good. Yeah, you'll start to play 30:02 off like a little bit earlier in September. Yeah, I'm cool with that. Sounds good to me 30:08 if we ever get there. Yeah. And then the last one, Guardians tie the series to two 30:14 with the White Sox, it felt like the Sox just ran out of, 30:19 like their bullpen just ran out of gas 30:21 because they've been going bullpen, 30:23 just throwing their bullpen at the Guardians 30:25 and they had one horrific inning that just sunk them. 30:29 And now we're going to a game five. 30:31 And I don't know. 30:32 I mean, I think these two teams are pretty even 30:34 but it's just like, how much, 30:36 how much do the White Sox have left in the tank 30:38 when it comes to like their pitching at this point? 30:41 But again, their pitching wasn't even, 30:43 Like their pitching was was a problem, but that one inning where they just I know I know they weren't technically errors, but there was 30:51 Miss ball and right field and then you can touch you can catch it touch 30:54 You can catch it and then a kick ball in a second base and it just kind of all kind of unraveled from there 31:01 Yeah, the sixth inning. Yeah 31:03 the guard I mean I 31:05 Don't I still don't know if the guardians are good 31:07 But they listen they came to that's an intimidating place to play the White Sox like rate field 31:13 looked awesome. They did the blackout. They brought back the Pirates of Caribbean intro, 31:18 which is cool. And they went in there and they took two games. And now they get to go home 31:23 and play a game five. There's something fun about like the White 31:26 Sox Stadium when everybody in the crowd in the wintertime or in the fall is wearing, 31:30 you know, black or dark colors. It looks like an EPL game. Yeah. In the stands. 31:34 No, it's intimidating, but it wasn't intimidating for the Guardians. 31:38 Sam Antonacci. Yeah, cheeked up. Cheeked up, got hit right in the ass. 31:41 bases loaded, hit by pitch. And that's the second game in a row. 31:46 He said that. I think that's the first time in baseball history 31:49 that somebody has said back to back, hit by pitches, RBI bases 31:54 loaded. Yeah. And I also think I think we said that Jose Ramirez 31:58 was just doing nothing in the first two games. He showed up 32:01 for these two games in Chicago because he hit he hit a I 32:06 think he went two for he went two for four on Wednesday 32:10 night with two RBIs, then he hit a big two run homer to go up three to tonight. So he's been 32:16 that's that's he's been looking a lot better. Yeah, he yeah, he had another big night. So 32:22 I'm excited game five. Are there just a nation game like this? This series is it just going to 32:27 be a series of like the last two games or just gonna be nothing but bullpen games? 32:32 Well, no, Gavin Williams is still I mean, he pitched tonight in the ninth, 32:35 but Gavin Williams is is going to probably pitch for the Guardian start for the garden. 32:39 So he's gonna he's gonna start even though he pitched. Yeah, I think that was his scheduled bullpen day 32:43 He threw 11 strikeouts in the first game. He was awesome. Okay, so and the Guardians are going with starters 32:48 It's just the the white socks have just been throwing everything they have at them 32:52 And again, they just kind of ran out of gas 32:53 But they get an off day and we'll see Saturday night will be fun 32:57 I guess they have been going with starters, but but Messick where he was there for like two innings tonight, right? 33:01 Yeah, well, he didn't have it. Yeah. Yeah, he looked like shit 33:03 He actually I think he still had like six or seven strikeouts, but he just didn't have it 33:08 He was kind of all over the place. 33:10 OK, yeah, Cleveland had eight pitchers. 33:13 Yeah, yeah, yeah. OK. 33:15 Yeah, just before we sign off, Max. 33:18 Max Holma ever heard of him is playing in the big current classic. 33:22 And since we started recording this podcast, he's buried at three holes in a row. 33:25 And what is he in first? 33:26 He's in seventh. Are they playing? 33:27 Have they played them on the broadcast? 33:29 Yeah, you saw him. 33:31 You're looking at your phone right now. 33:32 It seems like you didn't see him.

No, definitely not the chargers. Absolutely not the chargers 37:16 All right, let's let's get into it. Maybe the chargers. You think the chargers are good? Absolutely not. Yeah, okay 37:23 Good. I was gonna say like we need to check you for something. Is it like give you a concussion? 37:28 We fully bolted. We should have like a 37:31 Concussion blue tent for takes. Yeah, okay. You said the chargers are good. We're gonna need to we got the spotter here 37:37 We're gonna need to go into the tent real quick. I mean the entire podcast should be done out of yeah 37:41 Yeah, okay speaking of two and two teams and whether they're good or bad 37:47 We will start with the international game. Yes, we were doing an international game again. Fuck you Hank fuck 37:52 Yeah, bro the Eagles 37:54 Plus seven and a half. I think it's all the way out to oh, I love it over under 41 and a half 37:59 Max has been doing Max has been basically going back and forth where 38:05 The season was over the team stinks now and I like this. I appreciate this for Max 38:09 He's now getting mad at all the disrespect the Eagles are getting that people are saying the season's over 38:14 And he's come all the way back round. He's like we're gonna fucking win this game 38:19 Well now it's a different outlook on the season. Yeah, tell us now supposed to do it the last time the Eagles are seven 38:25 Half point favorites. I don't have the stat. I'm gonna go with 38:28 Eight years ago. Okay, the last time there are seven and a half point dogs 38:33 There's the outlook towards the future of the Philadelphia Eagles this season is no longer 38:38 or what it was at the beginning of the season. 38:40 It's bad. 38:40 It's bad. 38:41 People think that they're gonna be bad now, 38:43 and I love it. 38:44 I'm ready to scrap. 38:46 I'm ready to scrap. 38:47 The Cam Juergens trade, 38:49 he was a great player for us for a long time, 38:53 helped win us a Super Bowl. 38:55 Also thank you, Cam Juergens, 38:56 for everything that you've done for the Eagles. 38:58 Great haul in return. 39:00 Yeah. 39:00 Didn't really lose that much. 39:02 Drew Kendall had replaced him at center 39:04 and had done a better job than him. 39:07 and if you just look at the stats of the last two years, 39:10 Landon Dickerson is gonna be coming back from IR soon. 39:15 So there was a chance that Cam Jergens 39:17 wasn't even gonna start 39:18 and you got a second round pick for him. 39:20 Yeah, the trade goes, 39:22 Howie Roseman spent a 2022 first and second rounder 39:25 on AJ Brown and Cam Jergens. 39:27 They won a Super Bowl, P pieces to a Super Bowl in 2024. 39:32 Then he flipped them for a first and second rounder 39:34 in the 2028 NFL draft. 39:36 That's good business. 39:37 That's good business. 39:38 That's good business. 39:39 And I don't think that a lot of people have said, 39:42 all right, it's a hard rebuild, hard rebuild, hard rebuild. 39:45 Disagree, this team's still going to scrap 39:48 and the team is going to cover seven and a half this weekend. 39:50 I'm very, very much looking forward 39:53 to the Eagles competing this weekend in London. 39:56 Soft rebuild. 39:57 Soft, yes, I'm all right with a soft rebuild. 40:00 We're doing a soft rebuild. 40:01 I told Max this yesterday and actually, 40:03 you know what? Take your headphones off, Max. This pisses me off so bad because the Eagles are 40:10 absolutely doing a very, very smart thing by entering rebuild mode now. So many bad franchises 40:16 and I root for many so I understand what they look like would see a team like this and say 40:21 we're still in our window. Let's just keep doing what we're doing and let's do it harder. 40:25 We still got a chance to win. No sense in giving up on this season. 40:28 and the writing's on the wall, 40:30 Howie Roseman sees it immediately 40:32 and he's like, okay, rebuild mode. 40:34 We're gonna start, if anything, 40:35 maybe a little bit early on the rebuild 40:37 and we're gonna reload and by the time 40:40 that other teams would just be entering really 40:42 the rebuild, they'll be ready to win again. 40:45 And it pisses me off. 40:46 Not only that. 40:47 He understands that. 40:48 Yeah, you're right. 40:49 Not only that, but you can already tell Max has been, 40:52 you can actually put it back on for this. 40:54 You can put it back on. 40:55 Max has been freed from the shackles of expectations. 40:59 So yeah, they got to make him play quarterback 41:00 as we were saying. 41:01 Yeah, yeah, yeah. 41:02 But Max has been freed from the shackles of expectations. 41:06 He is now entering a world where he will not, 41:08 if the Eagles lose a game, he'll be like, 41:10 well, we're not, we're rebuilding. 41:13 And if they win a game, he's the scrappy underdog. 41:15 I kind of hate this for us. 41:17 I know. 41:17 You know, he no longer is gonna be, 41:19 there's no longer the Eagles have the best roster 41:21 in football and this team is built to win a title. 41:23 No, they're they're in transition. Their offensive line is going to be remarkably different. Lane Johnson is a big loss 41:30 They have a young receiver core outside Devante Smith. They're trying to work in say Kwan is hurt 41:35 Max gets to play underdog. I know it's exciting. I haven't been able to play underdog in a while 41:40 And I think it's gonna be fun. Mr. Commenter. Yeah, I have a question. Mr. Max 41:43 Is it interesting at all that how he seems to be focusing on 41:49 Loading up on 2028 41:51 eight assets. 41:52 No, that's also good business. 41:54 We have two years until we can get out 41:56 of the Jalen Hertz contract. 41:58 You're loading up on 2028. 42:00 You need to see what you have in-house up until then 42:03 because 2028 could be a big transition year. 42:06 Jalen Hertz still has all the ability 42:08 to prove that he is the long-term answer 42:11 at quarterback in Philadelphia. 42:13 Because it kind of seems like how he's made up his mind 42:15 that 2028 we're moving on. 42:17 2028 is a decision where you can move on 42:19 So why wouldn't you build for that year? And if you don't need to move on then oh, oh no 42:26 Now we have assets that we can build around Jalen Hertz. It's a win-win 42:29 Who would you rather be your quarterback going for a Joe Burrow or Jalen Hertz? 42:35 Jalen Hertz. Okay. That's a lie. Yeah. I mean, I I mean, are the bangles trying to move on from Joe and 2028 42:41 There's just a question about Joe Burrow this year if the bangles don't go to you know, the playoffs now the Eagles 42:47 Better playoff success. No, no, but oh wait. I'm not I 42:53 Just asked a question. Would you rather have Joe Burrow or Joe? Yeah, I answer the question 42:56 Yeah, mm-hmm, okay, but you don't get paid for what you've done in the past, right? 43:02 Then Patrick Mahomes is nothing. I guess Vlad Jr. You could 43:05 Patrick Mahomes was just born. Yeah today 43:09 Patrick was the most underplayed person. I think in the world. I 43:13 Like that idea that we're just judge literally nothing you have done nothing's happened every day is a 43:18 Brand new day. It's the first day on earth. There's just as much of a chance that Patrick Mohams win Super Bowl as I do as a quarterback 43:24 We don't know. It hasn't happened yet. Ah 43:27 All right, so Eagles are gonna look totally different 43:30 I actually kind of agree that like the line has gotten a little out of hand the Jaguars are really really good 43:35 The Jaguars are inching closer and closer to like hey this team 43:39 I mean, I think we're already there as a podcast and I don't know if the national media will ever get there, but like 43:46 They've just been consistently extremely good for a large sample size now and their defense 43:53 and like is has been really good. Red zone defense taking the ball away. Travis Hunter 43:58 looks like a shut down corner now that he's playing only corner. And Liam Collins a great 44:04 coach and Trevor Lawrence is playing great. Are the Jaguars playing back to back London 44:07 games? They are. Yes. And they're going to be the home team in both of them. Okay, 44:11 rarely happens. They usually make them be the road team in one. So it's weird. 44:14 They're gonna be playing I believe in two different stadiums in London 44:16 But they're gonna be the home team both times as much 44:19 I would like to take the Eagles plus seven and a half of the thing the fact that they're flying on Friday scares me 44:24 It is it's very strange that they're doing that, but Willie Lampkin is starting at left guard and his nickname in 44:31 Practice so far this week has been a bowling ball of knives 44:34 So that has nothing to do with us him flying on Friday, but he's still a bowling ball of knives 44:39 But I said fright they're flying on Friday. He said but Willie Lampkin. Yeah, can you question all knives is good nicknames? 44:46 He's a short it's not it's a lineman in Philadelphia in 68 years. I believe not functional at all 44:52 What a bullet yeah wouldn't roll? 44:56 If you tried to roll a bowling ball full of knives either the knife at all break off or the ball would stop 45:00 Oh, I didn't think about rolling. I thought about throwing it at someone. Oh 45:05 Yeah, I mean I guess 45:06 How hard can you throw a bowling ball? Yeah, they roll what how hard can you throw a bowling ball don't really have to 45:11 That's full of knives. Yeah 45:13 Maybe you can't throw. I wouldn't even have to throw it skimpy little bitch 45:17 How would you throw a bullet? What did you just said catch it? It's just a ball. I mean no bowling 45:21 How would you throw it? Oh, what do you mean? I would just throw it on a med ball toss 45:25 This is a guy who's never done it 45:28 Med ball toss with knives knives all over you wouldn't be able to 45:36 Not full of knives. There's a bowling ball. I would you a lot of knives on it, but no 45:39 I can throw a bowling ball and I coordination dude read a book 45:44 I'm with Hank. It doesn't sound like it's functional 45:46 I saw it sounds like Hank would die if I toss him a bowling ball full of not no 45:49 I'll just catch it where you we got to make a bowling ball full of knives 45:52 Yeah, we do same as the watermelon video you guys did yeah 45:54 We're gonna have to make a bowling back get on it and I get to throw it at Hank 45:57 And he gets to catch it you get you can't bring a bowling ball full of knives on an airplane though with handles 46:02 Well, but they're leaving Friday. Yeah, but you can't fly 46:05 I know carry on Friday. I'll just stand 20 feet away Max. Maybe check it and hope they don't they don't examine the luggage 46:13 It's a practice aid. You don't get to stand 20 feet away on the line 46:17 It's also true a lot of good football 46:20 But you couldn't throw like what's how fast could you throw something one in one inch? 46:26 Pretty fast. Yeah, really fast. I would block your arm Hank 46:30 you're losing this. Yeah, this part of it. When he was a real 46:33 strong point when you were talking about the physics of it 46:35 now. Yeah. Max's guys are covering them all. Yeah. Scrap. 46:40 I'm running a scrap. Scrappy underdog Philadelphia Eagles. 46:42 Okay. Let's get out of England. We'll go to the US and 46:48 we'll start with Bears Packers. Packers are right now plus 46:52 one and a half over under 45 and a half. I'm excited and 46:57 also nervous for this game. I'm nervous because I do 46:59 think the Packers have a advantage in the fact that 47:03 they are the desperate team. And like given what happened at 47:08 the end of last year, there might be an extra. There's a lot 47:10 of quotes coming back like Tucker Kraft talking about the 47:13 pads talk there. The Packers have finally I don't think they 47:17 realized they were in a fight until Ben Johnson shoved them 47:21 in in a locker and said fuck the Packers last year. Now they 47:25 know they're in a fight. How does that look? You probably 47:27 know the answer to this but maybe some people don't do 47:29 know the last time I'll ask Hank Hank do you know the last time that the Bears were favored 47:34 at Lambeau Field. Nineteen ninety nine. No it's gotta be like Rex oh six. It's 2006 it 47:40 was I believe week one of 2006 and that year what did the Bears do. Went to the Super Bowl. 47:46 Went to the Super Bowl. So yeah it's been a while the rivalry does feel like it's even 47:51 now like it's anybody's game. I mean I don't hate the fact that Ben Johnson picked 47:55 to fight. No, he should. It's good. It's I think it's good for him. It's good for his 47:59 team. He clearly likes having a chip on his shoulder. My question coming out of that. Do 48:04 you think the chip on Ben Johnson's shoulder has gotten too big now? No. How so? I was 48:09 just thinking back to like he got he was mad that somebody reported that Tyson Bajant 48:15 was going to start. So he was like, I'm going to show the media what's up. So I'm 48:19 going to put two quarterbacks on the field. I don't think mad is the right word. I 48:22 much and finding disrespect where it doesn't exist. No, his point was like everyone decided for me who 48:28 our starter was. So I'm showing you how ridiculous the media is. Yeah, but what I'm saying is like 48:33 does is he listening too much to things? I don't think that's if he's gone to those depths. No, 48:38 because I think listen, like I don't see that as him listening. Everyone was reporting that it 48:43 was going to be Tyson Pageant. I don't think he's like tuning into to radio and TV. Like 48:50 Everyone was saying it right he was just like okay case Keenum is but he also said it was like a passing of the torch 48:56 But I think most coaches would just be like, okay. Well, they yeah, they know 49:01 And he wouldn't like roll two of them out there. Yeah, it was one play 49:03 I it didn't it didn't register as anything more than one play. Okay. Yeah, I don't think he's thinking about it 49:11 One play didn't if he like had been like we're gonna start case Keenum for a quarter 49:16 Just to try to stick it to people that would be weird 49:18 But it was yeah, because I like I like to chip on a shoulder. I just want to make sure he doesn't have too many chips 49:23 How many people do you think on Facebook have shared the Ben Johnson AI video of him crushing a coke can being like 49:30 This is the Packers and the Bears are my hand because I saw it yesterday 49:32 I was like this is gonna get a lot of people. I haven't seen that. There's got to be at least 49:37 They're actually I think so there's elections are coming up 49:40 I really wish we could get that as a question on 49:43 and like the Illinois election sheet when you show up, 49:46 you're like, did Ben Johnson crush a Coke can? 49:48 Is this real? 49:49 And then anyone who says yes, we just don't count their vote. 49:51 Well, we're listening to it. 49:52 Can you find it, Max? 49:53 Max isn't listening, he's done. 49:56 He was literally like, Max was like looking like 49:58 he was going to make out with memes. 49:59 He had his full body turned to memes. 50:01 What's going on? 50:02 I was looking at the bad percentages of the Eagles. 50:05 Okay. 50:06 I'm sorry. 50:07 Okay, can you find the Coke can video? 50:09 Just do Ben Johnson Coke can. 50:12 It's the most a I video and I think it's a lot of people on Facebook 50:19 60 plus 50:21 You might have fallen for it. No, I say hey watch this video and tell me if you thought this was real first sight 50:27 You gotta turn the press conference. You're trying to sound 50:31 Go back 50:32 You're doing a terrible job. What are the Bears expectations versus the Packers this week? 50:39 So this is the Packers and my hand is the Bears 50:49 Hey, that's a banger on Facebook next question. You think that I thought that was 50:57 Hey, that's the fakest video ever 51:00 I've seen faker. Okay the whales that was real 51:06 Have you seen the videos of the people jumping off of like a hundred foot 51:11 Helicopters on the trampolines then bouncing back up. Those are real 51:14 Or the guy who has like pounds and pounds of popcorn he drops it into a 51:21 Active Volcano shoots out popcorn. That's real 51:26 Are you guys what do you guys think about this game? 51:29 Are you taking the Packers home dogs, man, right home division dogs robbery like is is tough to not take 51:36 And if you're an underdog connoisseur, yeah, I think I'm gonna take kind of like a system play no offense 51:43 It makes sense. No, I'm not offended by that. I I'm a little nervous about this game and 51:48 One the Bears defenses looked a lot better, but it also the home road splits last year were stark this year there 51:55 It's only one road game, but if they still 51:58 Gave up a lot of points the Panthers look good the last three weeks 52:01 Haven't really played great quarterbacks when Gino Carson Wentz and Jalen Hertz 52:05 so how's it gonna look when you play a real offense real quarterback and then also there is a 52:12 When you have a backup quarterback 52:14 And it's no knock on Tyson Beijing or case Keenum 52:16 But when you have a backup quarterback 52:18 You can win a game the first game you can win by kind of doing something different 52:24 Then tape comes out and it's like oh these guys are backups for reasons, you know, right? 52:28 So it does it makes it a little bit harder 52:30 I'm gonna believe in the Bears offense until proven otherwise. Yeah doesn't matter who they're starting under center 52:35 It could be the whoever the emergency backup quarterback is gonna be 52:38 I don't know who your your fourth stringer would be in this case 52:40 but I'm gonna believe in them until I see a clunker of a game come out so I 52:46 guess all that's to say I don't know what it's gonna look like but I do think 52:48 there's gonna be a lot of points I would I think the over is yeah is where I'm 52:52 gonna be leaning the Packers they've looked like doo-doo but at home they 52:56 tend to score points still and the Bears obviously give up a lot of points 53:01 on the road and the offense is gonna look good until further notice so I'm 53:04 I'm gonna trust in Ben Johnson's offense and I am going to believe that 53:10 that's going to that part of the game is going to be efficient for the Bears. 53:13 But I still don't know about the defense on the road right. 53:16 Yeah, I I'll leave. 53:18 I'll end with this. 53:19 I I mean, it's a weird spot to be in that, like, 53:22 I expect the Bears to win this game. 53:24 So I'm not like emotionally hedging and being like, oh, we probably won't win. 53:27 No, no, I expect the Bears to win this game. 53:29 I think the Bears are the better football team. 53:31 If they do not win this game, I'll be wildly, wildly disappointed. 53:35 So I expect them to win this game. 53:37 Yeah, I hope that they win. 53:38 And I placed, I'm in your hole big cat. 53:41 I officially came in big cat's hole this week, took two bets futures on the Super Bowl. 53:47 The Jaguars like I alluded to earlier in the week, I full on believe in the Jaguars now 53:51 and the Bears watching what Ben Johnson's done with backup quarterbacks tells me that 53:56 he's got it. 53:57 He's got it going on. 53:58 Like there's something that he's doing that's working, he is dialed in right now 54:01 when Caleb gets back, it's going to be even better. 54:04 And then I do think that with the defense, even though it doesn't look great, they've 54:08 turned the ball over a little bit, which is good. 54:10 But I think they've got such a, 54:11 they've got a good coach on defense. 54:13 Yeah, no, Denison was great on third downs, 54:14 great in the red zone. 54:15 And my theory is that as the weather turns 54:18 and they have the consistency of that coach, 54:22 the defense is going to improve 54:24 as the season goes on, not get worse. 54:26 So I think that the Bears are legitimate 54:28 Super Bowl caliber team right now. 54:31 Well, see, yeah. 54:32 I mean, I have a future on them as well. 54:34 A very large future. 54:36 I believe in them. 54:37 I believe in Bed Johnson. All right, Texans, Titans, Yuck. 54:43 What do you guys make of this game? 54:45 Titans are seven and a half point underdogs, thirty eight and a half. 54:48 Titans have their Texas have to win this game, right? 54:51 And when it handily, they have to, they have to win this game. 54:55 I don't. So the line, I believe earlier in the week, it was even like Texan, 54:59 six and a half. OK, so the the bets have come in now. 55:02 They're, I think, seven and a half point favors. 55:04 Tank down might be back right now on the road. 55:06 So that's that's the big part is Tank Dell might be back and the offices look pretty good 55:10 So D'Amico Ryan says that he is going to take back defensive play calling this week. Oh, which that tells me like, okay 55:18 The bad man's back. Mm-hmm. Like the real principal is here 55:22 I don't know what you guys did when the assistant principal was running things, but I do trust in D'Amico Ryan's defense 55:28 Yeah, I I found a quote. I agree with you. That's also is it too early to hit that button 55:34 I don't know. They they ran out of time. They have to do it. Yeah. I mean, no, I think it 55:39 it feels like it is early because it's only four games, but it's not because it's not 55:42 it might be too late. Yeah, right. They did it. And that was your strength. And I think we 55:47 also talked about this on Monday, but giving up that many catches to CD lamb at some point. Yeah, 55:53 you're an elite defense. You have to make some sort of change. And that I think told 55:57 Domingo Ryan's, okay, well, it's time for time for me to take it back. I got no 56:01 interest in watching the Titans play football. I know that's mean, but it's just the facts. 56:05 They're just a bummer. I also found Robert Salah had a quote on par with Hank saying 56:13 that he is was going to dunk or get a six pack. Robert Salah when asked about whether 56:19 an own four team can make the playoffs in today's NFL, he said, I think anything is 56:23 achievable. Okay. Maybe actually now that I'm saying it, maybe the reporter was asking 56:29 him about the Texans. They're like, Hey, Bob Salah, do you think the Texans can still 56:34 make the playoffs? That is achievable. The Titans being the playoffs is not achievable. 56:39 What was the context? Did the reporters just say like a hypothetical 0 and 4 team? But 56:44 how funny would it be if he was like, Hey, I know you I know we're here to talk about 56:47 your team. But what do you think about the Texans? Could they make the playoffs? Yeah. 56:50 After they beat you this weekend? The worst would be if it was just like, do you 56:54 think an own four team can turn around? And in his mind, he thought that they 56:57 they were asking about the Texans. 56:59 He's like, oh, yeah, that team, yes, absolutely. 57:01 They definitely can. 57:02 Yeah, I don't, yeah, I just, they're a bummer to watch. 57:07 I think this will be, we have, do we have seven games? 57:10 So this will be on one of the small TVs. 57:12 This is, it would actually be nice 57:15 if the Texans could just beat them handily 57:17 and we don't even have to look at this game. 57:18 Eight games. 57:19 Eight games. 57:20 Eight new games. 57:21 Eight new games. 57:22 The Weather Channel dunked on this game. 57:24 What'd they say? 57:25 It was like the NFL memes account 57:26 Or whatever they're like they should flex this game to the weather channel. Oh and the weather channel said no, thanks 57:31 Oh, the channel turned it down 57:33 And let me just say like I know whether like people like the weather there's a bunch of weather freaks out there 57:39 You think you're bigger than the NFL? You think you're bigger than football weather. Yeah, you take this game 57:44 Yeah, you take this you take this game in a heartbeat. Ah 57:47 Cam Ward with he has three touchdown passes this season 57:53 three touchdown passes his three touchdown passes this season when he was down 20 with 57:58 242 left first the Jets when they were down 12 with 535 left first the Giants and when 58:06 they were down 14 with 112 left against the Ravens mm-hmm those are his three touchdown 58:10 yeah not not great yeah not great I think I think Salah and Demico Ryan's are probably 58:18 maybe the two closest friends that have to coach 58:22 against each other twice a year. 58:25 Like Shanahan and McVeigh, I think. 58:26 There's like a frenemy kind of thing. 58:28 Frenemy, but like mutual respect also. 58:30 But those two, I feel like they're close, close friends. 58:34 Yeah. 58:35 Like they're probably, I wouldn't be surprised if 58:36 Salah calls up to Miko Ryan to ask him for advice. 58:39 Yeah. 58:39 This week going against the Texans. 58:41 Actually, Ben Johnson and Dan Campbell might be 58:44 in that group. 58:45 Are they still close? 58:46 Yeah. They're good? 58:47 OK, I mean he speaks you actually saw after the I think anyone from the Lions 58:52 day for Ben Johnson after the Jets game he went up to Aaron Glems like I love you 58:57 you guys are you guys are close like you could tell he was he was shown respect 59:01 by running the ball out at the end of the half right end of the game. 59:04 OK, the next game this one I have no idea what to make of it. 59:09 It is the Bengals and the Dolphins the Bengals and the Dolphins. 59:13 The Dolphins are plus six and a half. 59:15 That's plus 100, so it's probably a seven. 59:18 Over 100 is 42 and a half. 59:20 I don't know, I really don't know what to make of the Bengals. 59:23 I think they're good, but the last two games 59:25 have been very frustrating to watch. 59:27 I know what to make of the Dolphins, 59:28 the fact that they suck, they're young, 59:30 but they've also shown a little bit more fight 59:32 in the last two weeks versus the Chiefs and the Vikings 59:36 than the first two weeks this season. 59:38 So I don't know, I kind of like the Dolphins 59:40 in this game, is that crazy? 59:42 Also, they're gonna be, 59:43 the Bengals will be in the sun. 59:44 You know early early Miami games. We have temperature. I don't know. Tim check. I'm guess hot 59:50 Probably gonna be hot 91. That's hot. It's gonna be hot. I'm gonna put them in the sun. That's gonna be very hot 59:56 I think that it's not crazy to believe a little bit in the Dolphins because the defense does look pretty good 60:01 They've got a lot of really young players on defense and a couple really young good players on defense 60:06 So this is a great thing that the Dolphins are doing this year. They're doing it the right way 60:11 this is they've got they've got a plan in Miami and usually when you put in a 60:15 plan like that you will end up winning a couple games against good teams and so 60:19 this does feel like you said seven and a half now seven at seven exact if it 60:23 was seven and a half I would say yes I would take the Dolphins at seven it's 60:27 kind of close I probably still would because yeah it's a home game they 60:30 played pretty good and I don't know if if Jamar Chase is gonna play do we 60:34 know I don't think he is I don't like to further clarify the weather the 60:38 real feel will be 104. Whoa, how do they do real feel humidity? I 60:44 think it's just a guy that goes outside as I guess. It's about 60:48 104. Yeah, guy walks out and he's like, I need a coat. It's 60:52 52. Yeah. He walks outside immediately takes his shirt off 60:55 that's when you know it's 100. 60:59 Stanis, you got to get you got to get a little sunlight when 61:01 you get outside. Otherwise, you get tricked by the shade. 61:04 That happened to me the other day. 61:06 do you think it's cool yeah I know I went for a walk around my neighbor and I 61:11 wore a jacket because I thought it was cool yeah got on the walk way too hot the 61:16 Sun hits you yeah it's different so then I had to put my jacket around my waist 61:19 like a little Princeton preppy yeah it's kind of a weird move you know do we 61:25 know if Miami is necessarily that bad because all their all the teams that 61:32 they've played against. Yes. They have great records. I think 61:36 they're. Yes. Bad. We're just hey Hank we're having the 61:39 discussion. Hey, we're it's it's going adult conversation here. 61:43 I think they're I'm closer to what PFT is saying. I think 61:47 they're bad but not as bad as we do. The reason I would have 61:50 a lot of hope if I was a Dolphins fan is number one, 61:53 you're not going to fall into the like seven and 10 trap this 61:55 year. Nope. You're going to be bad. But again, you're 61:58 playing a lot of really, really young players. Your coach 62:00 seems to understand the assignment and so far even though it's it's early on in the season 62:05 they're a bad team but they're playing hard they're they are a bad football team that could cover 62:11 spreads north of seven they've only covered once but i think that they could cover spreads north 62:18 of seven and like that chiefs game they lost 24-10 i think it was 17-10 in the fourth quarter 62:25 or like right at the start of the fourth quarter. 62:26 So it wasn't just like a total dog walking. 62:30 This is as close as we'll get to like an ethical tank job. 62:34 Mm-hmm. 62:35 Yeah, yeah. 62:36 They went out and got a $60 million quarterback. 62:40 Yeah. 62:40 New coach. 62:41 Yeah. 62:42 They're like, hey, we just suck. 62:43 They're doing it the right way. 62:44 Oh, their entire defense is young guys. 62:47 Mm-hmm. 62:47 Yeah, they are doing it the right way. 62:48 Congrats to the Dolphins. 62:49 An ethical tank job. 62:50 Yeah, doing it. 62:51 They get to doing it the right way of the year award. 62:53 Yeah. All right. So Jamar Chase, do we have an update? I think he's not. 62:58 It usually takes a little bit of time in the concussion protocol when you're... 63:01 I don't think that he is. It would be my guess. 63:04 Where is he in the concussion protocol list? 63:09 Uncertain for Sunday. Yeah. 63:13 I don't remember the last time a guy was uncertain with a concussion and then it was like, oh yeah, he's fine. 63:18 It just depends on where he is in the protocol, but I feel like most of these 63:24 Concussions now it's like one at least a week injury. Yeah, you know 63:28 Okay, next game 63:31 Raiders, yeah at Patriots Hank. Oh, by the way, the Dolphins we said this stat on Monday 63:39 But they're the first team through four weeks to score 14 or less 63:43 Points yeah in a game since the 2019 dolphins. Yeah, that's really bad Hank 63:51 Yes Raiders Patriots Patriots my three and a half over under 45 and a half 63:55 Drake may never lost as a three-point or more favorite 63:59 Is that true? Yeah 64:01 12 and 0 12 and 0 64:05 That's an impressive stat. Yeah, that's of all time super bowler. Is it really? 64:11 I believe so that's pretty crazy 64:14 I 64:15 riding high very excited for this game 64:19 And obviously the Raiders are a good team surprisingly 64:23 But this does feel like a let down a let down spot. I'm I'm excited. I feel like we're gonna for the Patriots 64:29 Oh, okay. You're saying for the Raiders like no, we're running 64:33 Riding hard we were we beat the bills and we that last year that you know, vaulted us into into the Super Bowl 64:40 Feels like that could happen again this year. Mm-hmm 64:43 But I'm just a little worried we're riding a little too high. Yeah, okay 64:46 Yeah, the ups and downs of an FL season for sure and in Kirk Cousins is 64:50 He's been playing really, really good and Max Crosby scares me a lot. 64:55 All right, you should scare the fuck out of you. 64:57 Well, their head coach also might have a blueprint. 65:01 Yeah. 65:02 Super Bowl. 65:03 Super Bowl. 65:03 Yeah. 65:04 Clint Kubiak. 65:04 Yeah. 65:05 Do we have anything from Glenn? 65:09 No. 65:10 No. 65:10 Okay. 65:12 And Hank made it pretty clear that like he's not a fan of Glenn and doesn't like 65:16 his sense of humor or whatever. 65:18 So I don't know Glenn's kind of going through his fields right now. So I think he's focusing on Glenn's getting lazy 65:22 We go Glenn you're Hank you ruin. He's not. Yeah, I didn't yeah, you said you didn't think it was funny 65:28 I thought it was funny Glenn is I think he's again. It's I said I literally said it's a subjective thing 65:33 I'm I appreciate that people enjoy it and they're a lot of things funny 65:37 I personally don't that was not me just saying don't do it 65:40 I think well listen Glenn can't take a little criticism grow the fuck up 65:44 Let's see, grow the fuck up. 65:47 Glenn has an issue where- 65:48 You think people don't like what I say on this show? 65:50 I'm still here every Tuesday, Thursday, and Sunday. 65:53 There you go. 65:54 I'm not scared of some criticism. 65:55 There you go, Hank! 65:56 Yeah, Glenn just has an issue like- 65:58 What, Hank? 65:58 He listens too much- 65:59 Why don't you go Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday? 66:01 Yeah, he ships when we record. 66:02 I know, but the people only here 66:03 on Monday, Wednesday, Friday, but yeah, go ahead. 66:05 He's got an issue with some people hating on him 66:08 and sometimes he gets in his field and he retreats 66:13 And I think he's got a country music album that's like kind of jelly rollers coming out. 66:17 So I think he's just kind of focusing on on the side quest right now because it seems 66:20 like people online. 66:22 Honestly, this feels like one of those like you there's like a pump and dump. 66:26 Like you you Glenn was asking for subscribers and for people to pay for his services 66:30 and shit. 66:30 They need to stop making. 66:31 He's clearly not a fraudster. 66:33 That was very clear in the last video. 66:36 So just because he owes some people money that he's actually working on paying 66:40 back right now doesn't mean he's a fraudster and he'll sue you but yeah no 66:44 he's just he's focusing on the music right now it would be really funny if 66:49 actually he was like remember that bears jaguar super what better I was I got it 66:54 from Glenn through the people oh yeah well you're not glad so I'm not no I 66:59 don't know who Max would have done that max would have if anyone he's max but I 67:04 think Glenn's his own guy and he's got yeah he's got so actually I listen to 67:08 How do you know he doesn't have anything coming out because he tweeted about it today. What was it? 67:12 Hey guys, no film breakdown this week. Unfortunately, there's too much negativity in this world 67:16 So diving back into my rap slash country album coming out soon numbers lie women lie, but the tape never does 67:23 Thanks to all the film junky tier subscribers. Hopefully get back soon to all 22 67:28 They didn't subscribe for your stupid country out and they subscribe for whatever he's hot to a you can 67:33 I mean take it up with with Glenn. I don't know what to tell you 67:36 The song is kind of a banger. 67:40 Let's hear it. 67:45 He'd still be running through their bones. 67:50 He can't his head on the floor. 68:01 Schedule. 68:02 He'd still be running. 68:04 What? 68:06 Have you seen the schedule this year? 68:08 Yeah. 68:08 Why? 68:09 Have you seen the graph talk schedule? 68:11 No. 68:11 Oh. 68:12 Let's hear it. 68:13 Graph talk with Hank. 68:14 Uh how the cleanse out it would just this anyone speak that was my favorite Glenn content till the end of it 68:19 I like that. I like this. He's still be running the first half second. I have 68:24 Schedules a trigger for you, but the word schedule. It's it's reverse graph talk reverse. Oh, okay, the Patriots 68:38 No, I for my friends the sports info solution the Patriots run game 68:43 is going up their bottom three zone rushing success rate against a top 10 Raiders defense so far 68:50 Remondry Stevenson possibly out, right? 68:53 So that could be something to watch especially if the weather is bad 68:57 Raiders are good. Yeah, there's a I don't know if the reason you're gonna win this game 69:01 Cuz I also think the Patriots are good, but the Raiders are not like I of the surprise teams 69:08 In terms of like will they last let's just do it real quick 69:12 Brown's Raiders Giants. I would probably say Raiders. 69:16 They might, it's easier to make the playoffs in the NFC, 69:20 but I think the Raiders are more likely to be in, 69:26 to win more games than the other two. 69:27 Yeah, I'd have to look at what their schedule is. 69:30 Although the Browns do have a good schedule. 69:31 But I don't think that there's, 69:33 it's not like trickery going on. 69:35 The only trickery that's going on 69:37 is like Kirk Cousins is healthy. 69:38 I think it might actually- 69:39 Kirk Cousins is old and healthy at the same time 69:41 and how long is that gonna last? 69:42 And it also might just be I did a confusing way of saying I strongly believe in Clint Kubiak. 69:49 And I think he is proven right away his worth and how they've raised the floor of this organization. 69:58 They've scored at least 26 points in every game this year. 70:01 Yeah, he's good. He's a good coach. Hank, did you find it? 70:04 Yeah, two things. One about Josh, the schedule out and he be their 70:09 wins have come against teams with a combined record of two and ten and this 70:15 one's a little bit confusing it's a graph so saying it might not make the most 70:19 sense but the Patriots have played the hardest schedule so far but they have 70:26 the easiest schedule going forward based off of teams this year. Based on 70:31 what teams records are at the present is what you're saying. They've got an easy 70:36 schedule moving for those two things don't don't those don't work together how 70:42 so you just your first point was the bills are a fraud because they played 70:46 nobody no bills and bills the bills wins are nobody's okay but then you're like 70:50 but your win against the bills is something yeah don't listen I'm talking 70:58 about graph I'm not I'm not it's not it was not it was not a it was not a 71:02 that the that was not subjective the graph is just a graph the graph is 71:05 graph. If you get it, I can't put the first thing was just a 71:09 synodjective. The Patriots being at the top of like harder 71:11 schedule so far. That's the graph. Right. But also the bills 71:15 have played nobody. So let's know the bills when they when they 71:18 beat no one wins or against nobody. The bill schedule has 71:21 been easy. But also the Patriots have played the hardest 71:25 schedule per the graph strength of schedule Patriots. You 71:29 see how I was confused. Yes. Yes. But that you 71:32 understand yeah yeah I got it remaining games and that the higher you go up the 71:37 easier it is hard easy this is a really confused yeah you guys it's not it's not 71:45 for the weak minded remaining games season so far so what is it why top left 71:51 yeah just hard so far easier going forward okay hard so far easier going 71:55 forward okay so the oh that's bad news for everyone oh no she's from the other 72:00 They're sick, okay, all right. 72:01 Got it. 72:02 It means that the teams that are more likely, 72:04 now here's where it gets tricky, big cat, 72:06 because you'll notice that with the exception 72:08 of like the Buccaneers, pretty much every team 72:12 that's in the bottom right quadrant 72:14 is a team that has a good record, 72:16 meaning that that's going to be one out of four 72:20 of their opponents' games being a loss. 72:22 So the teams that they've played have bad records 72:24 because they won that game. 72:26 Right, you're forgetting a big one 72:27 The bottom right of easy so far hard going forward Zach noticed. How are we how are we open for it? Well, I said that yeah 72:34 Yeah, did you say bucks? Yeah. Oh, I missed I missed the bucks part. Yep 72:39 That's the only one 72:42 That's poppackers not that great, but yeah, it's okay. It's early. It's early to be doing schedule talk 72:47 Yeah, Hank you're obsessed with schedule 72:50 And I think it's just a trick. It's like a trigger word for him 72:53 Well, no Glenn Glenn Glenn mentioned it that that did make me bring it up. I am you know, I'm a graph 72:59 I thought Glenn free in your head 73:00 This is basically consumed up pretty easily in the fact that like 73:07 Have you played the bad teams in your division yet is essentially what the graph? Yeah, because the Patriots haven't played the Jets or the Dolphins 73:14 Have you played the bad teams yet? 73:17 No, right 73:19 Like half the Colts played the Titans. No 73:21 they're still on their their schedule but yeah I'm I'm very excited for this game 73:26 I think it's gonna be a battle I think it's be close but I think if we win which 73:32 it's it's where the division's ours it's yours oh so this is if you win this 73:37 game things are it's gonna feel like the division's ours I'm not calling the 73:42 division over yet you just said if we win this game the division's ours 73:46 that's where my head that's where my head will be at mm-hmm okay it'll be 73:50 to lose you'll be you'll be thinking that yeah mm-hmm who if you were to pick 73:56 one guy on the Patriots like your dad what's the missing dad one guy on the 74:02 Patriots Drake yeah I think he's going to try to 74:07 tap him on Thursday football yeah yeah it could yeah he's gonna do it that max has 74:13 a question yes max it's the question I can memes ever dapped no memes would 74:16 not. He's never dapped. Is the division or is that combined with the bill's loss to the Rams? 74:25 I think he's assuming that yes. Yes. No. Oh. So yours to lose but you would still be behind 74:33 the bills then. Yes but eventually we're going to play them again Max and if we win that then 74:40 and will have the advantage. 74:43 Idiot. 74:44 Oh! 74:46 He just said it's ours to lose when you're not in first place. 74:49 But you understand that we're going to play them again, right? 74:52 I do understand that. 74:54 So then when we win that game, that's it. 74:56 But if their record is still better at that time, 74:58 it's still not yours. 74:59 No, what you guys aren't understanding 75:00 is the patients are obviously going 75:04 to beat the bills the next time they play each other. 75:06 That's Hank's whole point. 75:08 He's counting that as a win already. 75:10 Got it. Yeah. Mm-hmm that haze in the barn. Are you falling are you following that? 75:15 It's the bills to lose cuz they're in first place 75:18 It's the bill the bills have one less loss when we even if they win every single game from here 75:24 I'll get it from their standpoint you fucking idiot. They are in first 75:27 He's up. It's theirs to lose if they they can say the same fucking thing as you 75:33 But they will lose but hey do you control your own destiny? 75:37 Yes, yeah, yeah, the bills bills do no the bills again. Yes, they both 75:42 They both control their own destiny. Yeah, that's impossible. We all do 75:47 No, the pager. Yeah, we control our own death. No, the bills. Stop saying no stop saying no the bills control 75:53 That's they're in first max. I don't know what you're having such a hard time under same 75:57 I mean the jets control their own destiny 75:59 Yes, we do if they beat if they 76:02 Great point. They would absolutely win the AFC. Yeah autopilot 76:08 Okay, both are true. But it's ours to lose. Yep. Are you worried 76:14 about Drake May saying he doesn't talk? He's talking about 76:17 moon conspiracy theories. We talked about this. No. No, not at 76:20 all. Not at all. No. Maybe a tiny bit. No. The moon conspiracy 76:24 is the most cookie cutter like that's what I'm saying. Like 76:27 I would much rather my quarterback be in it. It felt 76:29 like Drake may is not like a controversial guy. I feel like 76:32 he was holding something back because that's the one 76:33 that people go to when they try to do got your 76:36 journalism gave him nothing I think the drink was holding back because like 76:40 that's the one that people say when they don't want to reveal what they 76:42 actually believe it's like oh what's the safe one oh I can what's the one that's 76:46 not gonna get me banned by Robert Kraft oh it's gonna be I'm gonna go with 76:50 the moon landing the landing is I'm not worried about it there's your 76:55 question no I am not worried about it all I'm sure him and Matt Collins I'm 76:58 sure has some fucking crazy ones it's back all it's hurt yes he's out 77:02 for I don't know how long, but he's hurt. Okay, uh, A. J. Brown, though, practicing. 77:07 There you go. I also think Mike Vrable might have got his swag back 77:11 and I have a reason for it. What? What are you going to say? 77:14 He just, I just, yeah. 77:16 Okay. I think Mike Vrable got his swag back because we talked about on Monday, 77:22 C. D. Deuce going after Efton Chisholm, talking about practice squad player. 77:28 Mike Vrable then defended Efton Chisholm and said, 77:31 for a guy that's been on eight teams talking about CD Deuce, 77:34 eight teams in four years, I mean, I guess he knows the drill. 77:38 That's a ballsy move for Mike Vrable to take a shot 77:41 at CD Deuce who CD Deuce will say anything about anyone. 77:44 So I think Mike Vrable might be back being like, 77:46 that's in the past. 77:47 I don't care. 77:48 Because he basically like almost dared him like, 77:51 go and say something about me 77:53 and what happened this past year. 77:54 Yeah, CD Deuce is, that's what he does. 77:56 He's very good at but he's also a good player. Yeah, like if you're that much of a headache off the field 78:01 You would not have had the career that he's had if he also wasn't really good, but he's good when he's out there 78:06 That felt like a little it was being a bitch after the game 78:10 He was like I can't believe we lost so I'm gonna have to make fun of the guy that caught the game when he passed 78:14 Yeah, but the the variable part of it. Do you agree Hank like him? 78:17 Him saying that is but he's opening himself up to have a shot back at him from CD deuce 78:22 and he's okay with that. 78:24 Yeah, cause I don't just use that. 78:26 Yeah, so I think he's, I think he might be back. 78:29 Okay, Viking Saints, Saints plus two and a half over under 78:32 is 41 and a half. 78:33 This is gonna be a tough one for our boy, Shuck. 78:35 The Saints need a win, very badly. 78:38 Vikings four and O, bad offense, incredible defense. 78:42 What are we thinking? 78:43 Also, here's the problem. 78:45 Here's what the Saints, in concerning this game, 78:49 the Saints are so bad in the first half. 78:51 And if you get in a hole against the Vikings they're going to just tee off on you 78:56 So I'm very nervous about the Saints in this game 78:58 They're one and nine against first half spread at home since the start of last season 79:02 Kelmore feels like he has not been able to get the team going early 79:06 And get them on you know off on the right foot 79:09 That's a problem for a team like the Vikings who love playing with the lead 79:13 So the Vikings the question is their offense. What is their offense? 79:16 We know what the defense is gonna be they're just gonna blitz 80% of the time maybe more 79:20 but on offense, I believe they have the last ranked offense 79:25 by yards. 79:25 Yeah, they're 32nd in yards per play. 79:27 In yards per play, which is obviously terrible. 79:31 They did sign Odell Beckham this week, 79:33 who's taken on number nine. 79:35 He's the new nine. 79:36 We felt like they gave that out like a little early. 79:38 I don't know, you have to wait like a respectful amount 79:41 of time that felt disrespectful to JJ. 79:44 But I guess the offense can't get worse 79:46 and my thought with them is that 79:48 Kyler is going to get more comfortable in the offense as the season goes on as he gets more more reps in more games in 79:55 It should in theory get better. Mm-hmm. So I think 80:00 Is it though? 80:01 What well, I'm just asking questions. I mean in theory it should get better. Yeah, what I'm saying 80:07 so Mike Zimmer was a 80:10 Coach that was not he wasn't no 80:12 He's not a QB whisperer coach right when he coached the Vikings 80:14 Oh, no, he would he would have rather won games without a quarterback at all. I think right 80:18 So Mike Zimmer coached the Vikings for eight seasons 80:21 How many times in those eight seasons did he have a game where? 80:25 Regular season game where they did not score a touchdown 80:30 Anyone a guess eight seasons not an offensive explosive 80:35 explosive coach how many games 80:38 to 80:40 eight 80:42 Four four times in eight seasons 80:45 How many times Kevin O'Connell? 80:47 Had his Viking seems not score a touchdown. He is a offensive coach a QB whisperer 80:53 Eight nine that's a lot. I 80:58 Don't I want to say that the Vikings will get better offensively. I don't know if they will I 81:03 Think they should they because it can't get worse it quite literally cannot get worse 81:07 Well, I mean they could just keep winning games like this like I'm not saying they're gonna be bad as a team 81:11 I just don't know if it's gonna get I just don't know 30 second 81:14 and they can't do any work. 81:16 It has to get better. 81:17 Kyler Murray has, he has some talent. 81:20 That's not a question. 81:21 I think he just has to get familiar with it. 81:23 Well, the NFL led Brian Flores coaching him. 81:26 Yes. 81:26 Head coach. 81:27 Yes. 81:28 He should be a head coach. 81:29 Well, the real question is, 81:30 will there be an owner that will hire him right now, 81:32 even though he's actively engaged in a lawsuit? 81:35 Cause that might be the real question. 81:37 I feel like. 81:38 I don't think the old guard owners would do that. 81:42 But there might be one out there that says, 81:43 Yeah, I don't care. He should. He should. Yeah. He's been awesome. I mean, he's a 81:51 is he a better coordinator than coach though? I don't know. 81:54 Might be. It might be. That is that does happen where a guy is really good. 81:58 It really awesome at one side of the ball. And then when he has to 82:01 control everything, it's a little out of his hand. But a lot of times when that happens, 82:05 that guy will get a second chance. Yeah. No, I agree. I think it's like 82:08 Josh McDaniels case in point he he flamed out in Denver and then he found there were two teams that 82:15 were like yeah let's give him a second chance maybe he learned from his first time as a coach 82:18 mm-hmm I don't know that Brian Flores is going to get that shot but he he probably should yeah 82:23 Tyler shucks they said they're gonna start the emphasis on this week on starting faster are 82:28 we are we laddering every time they're gonna be they're gonna be down in this game maybe we 82:34 live ladder ladder against Brian Flores is oh no because live ladder because if 82:38 they're down then I don't know we have to ladder against Flores is kind of 82:45 someone's got to be open when you're blitzing right yeah mini ladder step 82:51 ladder mega ladder step ladder little squatty potty are we gonna go are we 82:57 gonna go cherry picker we're gonna go like bucket truck I don't know what that 83:03 is you know with the stair the chair we the thing you like fixed power line yeah 83:10 oh yeah mega ladder yeah mega thing that uh Donnie convinced all of us that he 83:16 knew how to use and then and then he used it yeah you got the hot dog off the 83:20 ceiling the Brian Kelly ladder that was a great day that was a great day we don't 83:22 talk about that thing we really don't this is incredible day I believe that was a 83:32 You know what you're right someone's got to be open so listen you blitz you blitz Tyler 83:39 Shuck at your own risk right that's what I'm talking about and you know what you blitz 83:43 him until he makes you pay and I think Shuck's gonna make him pay he's gonna make it pay 83:46 uh okay brown shits let's go memes win a football game I'll keep it quick rain okay 83:56 It rains every fucking Sunday in New Jersey, so the rain is is on your side. I 84:05 Don't think so. No, I don't think so. I think it's a negative 84:08 This is bullshit. You already have to watch a bad football team every Sunday 84:12 Yeah, and you also have to watch them in the rain. I agree with that 84:16 build the dome 84:18 Jets minus one and a half 84:20 Over 39 and a half. I've it's ridiculous that Brown's fans are calling this a trap game 84:25 It's yeah, you're not favorites. You're underdogs the jet the jets are favorite 84:29 It's impossible to have a trap game where the other that's how you can tell Browns fans are and listen 84:34 They deserve to be happy and I'm glad that their team is playing well 84:37 But I guess I'm directing this singular that Dom. Yes, you're not the favorite 84:42 No, can't be a trap game and also you're the Browns. Yeah, you have to like you don't lose being the Browns 84:48 Just because you started three and one right 84:51 You got to earn not being the Browns. Yeah process 84:55 It's a trap game ugly rain 84:58 Rain ugly trap game if it rains so much. Why don't you why don't you build the team in a way that is optimized for the rain? 85:05 They would net why would they do that that'd be smart? 85:08 Yeah, all right fucking bodies there 85:11 Yeah, they should have they should just build the O line 85:15 Have a beast running back never throw it. Mm-hmm. That's it 85:19 you know what I went down a little bit hard there I I see the the logic kind of 85:25 behind it that they have the Ravens afterwards so if we go Steelers there'd 85:30 be a look-ahead spot right if you but if you go Steelers Jets Ravens Browns fans 85:36 have and the team probably looks at the Steelers and Ravens games a little bit 85:41 differently yeah but you're right look ahead not trap the Browns are they 85:46 have a schedule coming up that like they could make some especially if Lamar's 85:51 out if they can win this game I we could be looking up and saying oh shit 85:56 with the Browns they play the Jets the Ravens maybe without Lamar at the 86:02 Titans at the Steelers at the Saints it's not murderers row how good do you 86:07 think Dishon Watson has to play this season for him to win comeback player 86:12 the year. Have we thought about that? I think he has to play, I think he has to play, I think he 86:19 has to play MVP level. And they're like, I think it has to get to a point where they're like, we 86:25 can't give him MVP. Yeah. So we'll have to give him comeback player. And they'll have to change it 86:30 to like, in the official announcement, it will have to say for bouncing back from two Achilles 86:36 engines, they have to, they will have to label it as clarifying. Yeah, he'll have to play 86:40 So good that everyone would be like that guy should be the MVP. Yeah, but we can't possibly do it 86:48 He's un-MVPable. Yeah, but oh Patrick Holmes is eligible. That's that's a runaway 86:54 Don't have a kid. Oh, they'll have a nice out 86:57 You know should get talked about more of the fact that he came back win less than a year in his dominant 87:02 Mm-hmm, like he he tours Achilles nine months ago. It's fucking crazy. Yeah 87:09 All right memes you think you're gonna win this game you're gonna win this game. Can you win this game? 87:13 I hope so because if you win this game you get you get the cavalry back the following week. Oh 87:18 Cavalry's coming. Yeah, who's in the cavalry 80 Mitchell who had a mystery broken finger two weeks ago 87:26 Omar Cooper 87:27 Breece Hall and our left guard 87:31 Everyone's coming back cavalry, but you got Braylon Allen for plays 26 yards 87:36 Yeah, hopefully it does that again. Hopefully it's a Brandon Allen game. I don't understand that 87:40 tweet. So it's been a week. So I think I figured it out. Teams have the social media quotas they 87:46 have to hit because they sell ads against the interactions they have against the impressions 87:51 against the follower account. So they have to they have to tweet something out. And that was 87:56 the they can run a mean pick six of the jets where it's like we got to get something out. 88:02 but let's just do a screenshot of this. 88:05 Honestly, you would take four yards, 88:07 or four plays 26 yards. 88:08 All day. 88:09 That's a nice little, nice little series. 88:11 He's a great four plays. 88:13 He's got a nice little rhythm, 88:14 but the fact that, yeah, it was highlighted is. 88:17 While the Jets were down, it was the third quarter. 88:21 And you know what, it deflects emoji too. 88:23 Yeah. 88:24 It deflects emoji. 88:24 I think that's what it is. 88:25 That made it worse. 88:27 I think you, yeah, Joey Lingo and shout Joey Lingo 88:31 One of our our guys who who works for Barstole. He's a great behind-the-scenes guys can tweets be banners 88:36 We should make it. Yeah, we should that's a good banner. Yeah, good idea Joey. All right Colts Steelers 88:42 We got two more games in the early window Colts Steelers 88:46 Steelers are minus two and a half over under forty four and a half 88:48 I really want to bet the Steelers because the Colts I do not believe in Daniel Jones the Colts are coming back from England 88:54 No buy going on the road 88:57 It just feels like it's an absolute mess in Pittsburgh right now 89:01 Do you know how easy it is for Mike McCarthy and Aaron Rodgers 89:04 to just give cliche answers? 89:07 Like, yeah, we're competitors. 89:10 You know, in the heat of battle, 89:12 we're going to have that type of back and forth, 89:14 but we respect each other and we're always on the same page. 89:18 That is so easy to lie like that. 89:20 And they hate each other so much, 89:22 they couldn't even do that. 89:23 They can't. 89:24 Partially they hate each other, 89:25 partially they're just too familiar with each other. 89:27 So it's like, yeah, they'll air all the dirty laundry 89:30 because they've done it before they've done it again the more I think about it the more it would be 89:34 it would be if Mike McCarthy has any balls he came back to take the job to ruin Aaron Rodgers 89:40 well hard yeah remember we talked about that theory it would be it would be to retire 89:44 Mike McCarthy he's got all the power doing it and he doesn't know it just to retire Aaron Rodgers 89:49 yeah the count of money Crisco what we talked about this theory yeah whatever the chances Aaron 89:54 Rodgers would just say no. And just no out on the field? Yeah. High like he 89:59 goes. Like 100%. Like Mike McCarthy tries to bench Aaron Rodgers. Aaron 90:04 Rodgers says no. It would be a constitutional crisis in Pittsburgh. 90:08 It's like who has the power. Yeah. And Aaron Rodgers would try to rally the 90:11 guys around him and then Mike McCarthy would be like I'll cut you if you 90:15 don't follow what I'm saying. It would actually be fascinating to watch. 90:19 Who does Will Howard listen to if Aaron Rodgers says no? Like Aaron 90:24 Mike McCarthy says you're in Aaron Rodgers says no you're not. What does Will 90:28 Howard do? I think he just cries honestly sits down and cries. I think he cries 90:34 while taking the field to take the job from Aaron Rodgers and meanwhile Drew 90:39 Aller 65245 stands resolute on the sidelines refuses to take Aaron's 90:46 job refuses to even participate in that and thus gains the respect of the 90:51 City Pittsburgh, then Mike McCarthy at the end of the year is fired, Drew Aller, quarterback 90:56 and waiting. He's the true quarterback of that team. He refused to divide it in half. 91:00 I think there would be too many men on the field situation. I don't see a world where 91:05 Aaron Rodgers is like, I'm coming off of this field. 91:07 I don't think that he deserves to be bad. He's probably the best, I don't know, the 91:12 offense has looked okay in spurts this year. Yeah. That was the nicest way you could put it. 91:18 You know, I'm grading on Steelers Offenses. 91:21 Oh, Steelers Offense, I think it's actually looks explosive. 91:23 Yeah, so I don't think that they're even close to thinking about that. 91:27 It's just funny that they do openly just like take snipes at each other, 91:31 like they're an old married couple. 91:33 Yeah, that is the one thing you could say about Mike McCarthy and Aaron Rodgers. 91:37 If you grade it on the last few years of Steelers Offense, 91:41 whether it be Kenny Pickett, Russell Wilson, Justin Fields, 91:43 where in whatever post Ben iteration of Steelers offense 91:48 has happened. 91:49 This is the greatest show on turf. 91:52 Yeah. 91:53 They have looked way better again on a curve 91:57 to every other offense they've had in the last few years. 92:00 They're so bad. 92:01 Yeah. 92:01 And I do. 92:03 I agree with the. 92:03 I think I like the Steelers in this game. 92:05 I did too. 92:06 The last time the Colts this is this is one of those sneaky 92:08 one side owns the other series. 92:13 the only Colts quarterback to win in Pittsburgh in the Super Bowl era is Peyton 92:19 Manning did it once in 2008. It's kind of crazy. That is. Yeah. Yeah. They just don't 92:24 win. They're two and 14 all time in Pittsburgh. I think back to that playoff game with the 92:30 Lickard up kicker, Mike Vanderjack. That was in India. Yeah. Yeah. Bob Sanders. He missed 92:34 Fumble Jerome Bettis who was on the Steelers not the Rams. Mm-hmm. And yeah, missed it at the very last second 92:41 Don't roll your eyes. I saw that. That was such a sassy eye roll. Thank you 92:49 It wasn't do yeah, whatever 92:50 No one like of all the dumb things that have been said in the show first of all maxed at it second of all 92:56 Yes, why are you rolling your eyes? Because it's it's the most overblown 93:01 thing that you guys 93:03 Like beaten to the ground now. There's a that's not true 93:06 Yeah, that's awesome, but it it is it is not close not even close to true 93:11 It is not even top ten. I'm dying people forget. Yeah, you can talk. I'm dying. Uh-huh. Yeah, buddy 93:17 We haven't even started the NBA season yet. Yeah, okay. So hey, there's a lot of meat left on a lot of bones 93:23 Can I ask a real quick question? Do 93:26 Maybe we could talk to our lawyers like could we buy the IP to live and just make it a YouTube channel of us 93:31 golfing. No, it's going to be a do you see that it's going to be a billion 93:36 dollar company. Okay. All right. Well, we'll talk about that. 93:39 Teams are valued at a hundred million dollars. So yeah, they shed they just 93:42 shed all their good player salaries. They knew that was not spending that was 93:45 part of the money. So that was part of every penny that comes in. You guys 93:49 don't know finance. All right, last afternoon. Wait, there is one thing 93:52 because you mentioned it earlier. The teams that play the week after an 93:55 international game, with no buy are 27 and 21. 94:00 And the teams that take the buy coming back 94:03 from international games, 36, 39 and one. 94:07 So it's actually, the track record is way better 94:10 for teams coming home with no buy. 94:13 Oh, that is interesting. 94:14 You wouldn't think that that was the case. 94:15 Yeah, well, that also could be, 94:18 they put it into the spread, that's against the spread? 94:20 Or straight up? 94:21 No, that's straight up. 94:21 Oh, okay, yeah, that is, yeah. 94:23 Interesting. 94:24 interesting. Alright, last early game, Giants Commanders. Commanders minus three and a half 94:29 over under 41 and a half. Jane Daniels full go. Jane Daniels full go. The thing I'm concerned 94:35 about in addition to him having his elbow just exit his body like sponge bob and say 94:40 I'm out is possibly the handoff situation. Because if there's one if you have a bad elbow 94:47 and he is elite and he is great at handoffs but like kind of seriously if you handoff 94:52 to your right as a quarterback, use your left arm. The brace he's going to be wearing 94:57 is going to theoretically keep it in place and prevent it from popping out, but straightening 95:03 it I think is probably still going to be very painful. So a lot of times quarterbacks will 95:06 then hand off with their right hand as they go to the right like backhanded, which I was 95:13 concerned about that. I asked Arian about that yesterday on macro dosing and he was 95:17 like, Yeah, I have one experience with that. Eric Ainge hurt his finger. And so he had to 95:22 hand off backhanded. It was against Florida first handoff for the game fumbled, they recovered 95:26 touchdown, we lost. I was like, Well, that's not what I want to hear at all. So I don't 95:34 know. I don't know what the handoffs are going to look like. But I'm back in like if you 95:36 play as well, I'm fully back in on the season because I still think he's got a very, 95:42 very bright future head of him in the NFL. But every time he gets hit, and I'm hoping 95:49 that he won't get hit much on that side where he's falling down to his left. You don't want 95:53 to take hits on the right shoulder for your quarterback that throws your right arm anyways. 95:56 So hopefully he'll protect it a little bit. But to say that I'm not confident in the 96:02 way it's going to go would probably be an understatement. 96:04 Are you worried about getting Jamest? 96:06 Definitely. Jamest has been really, really good against Washington. 96:09 And he's feeling himself. He's kind of back. 96:11 Yeah, he's a big time back. We had the full James Winston experience, but part of the James Winston experience is when you get a game 96:17 That's the full on James experience. The next game tends to not be. Mm-hmm. So I'm hoping that we catch him on the bottom of rollercoaster 96:26 But yeah, he is he historically he's 96:28 He's owned the commanders and we it would be kind of nice to see Marcus Mario against James 96:33 Yeah, one last time for all time's sake. What uh, where are you feeling if the commanders win this game? 96:39 season back on in what in what way what way do we win it because there's a 96:45 different way not a blowout but let's say let's say you win by 10 and it's no 96:53 you know what you win by 7 giant score a field goal to make it 7 towards the end 96:58 so you're up by 10 not like a crazy impressive but also not I we were you 97:05 never thought you were gonna lose the game a workman like victory yeah like 97:08 Give me a stat line from Jaden. 97:11 Jaden Daniels went 15 for 22 for 215 in a touchdown. 97:20 Any rushing your rushing touchdown? 97:22 He had no rushing touchdowns, but he had four rushes for 35 yards. 97:27 Okay, I'm going to feel average about that win. 97:31 Okay. 97:31 But then on Monday, I'm going to go back and cherry pick his best throws. 97:34 And I'll say Jaden's fully back the rest of the league's in big trouble 97:39 And I'll talk myself into feeling great about which should not be a great feeling when that's where I'll be with that performance 97:44 And if you lose this game season over season over it's big game big game big game 97:51 There's a lot of there's a lot of big games as 97:55 Podcasts going on at the noon slate 97:59 Yeah, happiness and sadness and just everything in between 98:02 I think a lot also has to do with if Terry's gonna be playing is he don't know don't know 98:08 That sucked here is his quad in practice on Friday before the the London game 98:12 Okay, because like the the commander's offense is a different team for sure 98:17 But I guess good job getting Stefan digs because the offense was not the problem. I don't think last week 98:24 Yeah, it was a 98:25 It was the referees. I blame the rest. It was also England is England's fault. It was the King 98:31 Prince Andrews fault and it was the referees. Absolutely. Okay, before we do afternoon games 98:38 twisted tea. It's football season where we've never been more ready for game day. We're 98:42 bringing twisted tea along for the ride all season long. Twisted tea is a refreshing hard 98:46 iced tea made with real brewed tea and 5% alcohol. Twisted tea party pack has a little 98:51 something for everyone with original half and half raspberry and peach. It's got 98:56 that refreshing taste a little kick no carbonation it goes down smooth making it the perfect 99:00 drink to keep the good times going at the tailgate all day long and all football season long whether 99:06 you're tailgating at the stadium crushing teas in your man cave or grilling out with friends 99:10 twisty is there to turn your day up a notch and make a good time a great time we love 99:15 twisted tea grab a twisted tea today grab keep it twisted with twisted tea the original 99:20 half and half the peach my personal favorite I'm gonna have a twisty sitting on my back 99:25 Padilla watching ball this weekend because it's going to be beautiful out twisted 99:29 tea the most refreshing drink out there it is the best it's twisted to keep it 99:34 twisted okay afternoon games boys the NFL did it to us only three afternoon games 99:41 mm-hmm it's about time it's about time too good for too long too good for too 99:46 long three games I will say one of them does feature the Lions defense so 99:52 That should be at least points. Yeah, but the first game Broncos at the Chargers 99:59 Chargers are plus three and a half 100:01 Home division dog. This is the week. Let me let's talk about over 41 and a half 100:08 This is the week that Sean Payton has decided to take back 100:12 Well, I shouldn't say take back. It's clever. He's collaborating. He's collaborating on play calling. Hmm. I 100:19 I do expect them to look better because they have looked so bad. 100:22 They're ranked 27th in points and 17th in defensive points for game. 100:27 The Broncos have been like the conversation has been a lot about the chargers or the Texans. 100:33 The Broncos have looked remarkably average for a team 100:37 that everyone thought was going to be a good team and build on last year's 100:41 AFC championship, especially the first half, right? 100:43 First three quarters of the game. 100:45 So, yeah, it's Sean Payton was very clear. 100:47 This is not a demotion. 100:48 Okay, it's not a demotion. It's a collaborative play-calling effort like Ringo star collaborated on writing all those number one hits 100:55 I'm John Lennon. Yep. It's pretty much an equal position 100:59 Denver is 101:00 Not panicking they will also want to make that clear not a panic move that they're doing. Okay 101:04 So I believe them and if you look at the stats going into this Denver 101:09 Has not been good against the spread in its last five divisional games. Mm-hmm. It has actually been bad 101:16 I don't think that they've won a single one out of those five and 101:21 On the other hand Harbaugh is 101:24 If you thought he was desperate last week 101:25 Yeah, this is about as desperate as as it's going to get 101:29 I do think that there's probably gonna be some sort of move made if they lose this game 101:32 Yeah, I don't know what moves he has I guess 101:35 McDaniel is there. I don't he doesn't seem like a guy that would move on so quickly 101:39 Well, the question would be would do they start trading guys 101:43 Yeah 101:44 They also the Chargers offensive line is very banged up. There's a chance. They're gonna start for rookie offensive linemen 101:52 This Sunday 101:53 So, I don't know how that's gonna look that makes me scared to hang because I want to take the Chargers 101:59 but for offensive 102:02 Liman for rookie offensive linemen Herbert used to it 102:06 He is that's true. And also you're bad already. So maybe 102:11 like switching it all out won't be better. I mean he's getting his ass kicked. It's been bad. Just 102:16 pressure in his face all the time. He hasn't been playing well either. So it's a combination. 102:20 Before he was getting his ass kicked and he was still good for getting his ass kicked. Yeah. This 102:25 year he's getting his ass kicked and he sucks. Which is you can't have both of those at the 102:29 same time. And I don't know. Yeah, they could be looking to make some moves if they fall 102:34 to even deeper hole with Justin Herbert kind of put it in perspective there's one quarterback 102:41 that has had more passing yards without a playoff win through their first hundred games 102:47 because I think this is either his hundredth game or he has played a hundred without a playoff win 102:54 without a playoff win there's one quarterback oh boy who would that be can you guess hold on 103:02 One quarterback with more passing yards without a playoff win Tony Roma in their first hundred. Nope, not Tony 103:10 That was a good guess. Very good guessing. Really good guess 103:13 Dak Prescott won a playoff game early didn't he? 103:17 He's one wild. I think yeah eight manning. Nope 103:21 What era? 103:24 Modern era modern era modern era. Yeah, okay modern era 103:28 passing yards. Phillip Rivers. No. Not no. No one play out. Yeah. Yeah. Hmm. What 103:35 conference? I'm going to do division next. Okay. Oh, Jay Cutler. Nope. No, Jay 103:41 wanted to play. Oh yeah. NFC. NFC. NFC. Andy Dalton. What team is AFC? AFC. That's 103:48 AFC. Come on. Get it. Wait. He's NFC now. Don't say team. Don't say team. I'm 103:52 not going to tell team. Don't say team. I won't tell team. Can I rehear the 103:55 that. Yeah. Can we get the can you tell us the country of origin as well? Okay, United States. 104:01 The question means is there's one quarterback that has more passing yards than Justin Herbert 104:09 to his first hundred games. So how mad are we going to be? Not I don't think it'll be mad. 104:15 Okay. So Justin Herbert is I think this is his 100th start. There's one quarterback that has 104:22 more passing yards without a playoff went through their first hundred starts 104:26 then Justin Herbert has. I think I'm gonna be mad. Kirk Cousins. No. Sam Bradford. 104:31 Nope. Alright tell us. Oh come on. Older younger than you. Get in the game means. 104:37 Older younger than you. Get in the fucking game. Hundred games. Oh. Matthew Stafford. 104:43 That's correct. Yes. I knew we'd get it after 75 passes. We knew it all along boys. Cut the 104:52 Hey, dude perfect first try Matthew Stafford whoa 104:56 We did it. It is crazy. I think that me and big cat are three years older than Matt Stafford 105:01 And we talk about you to say that we thought we talked about him like he is 105:06 God damn it god damn it. Yeah, I mean Rogers retire. There's gonna be a problem. Yeah, that's it LeBron 105:13 LeBron and Rogers and then maybe like a kicker a 105:17 Nick folk. No, we're older. We're older than Nick full, which is crazy 105:20 That makes me that part makes me feel better. Nick folk is is like way younger than I thought. Oh, no 105:27 We're all we're younger than Nick folk. Thank God 105:30 All right, Nick folk is 41 years old, but he was born in 1984 105:34 I got us stick around it folk. All right, you're gonna you want to say what you're thinking about 105:40 I'm not gonna pulled you to the hungry dog, but what are you thinking about hungry dog? 105:45 Chargers giants are pretty pretty much locked in. I actually think I 105:50 and Colts. Oh. So you're not touching the Packers? I, that's, I put this in. I've, 106:00 I sometimes will do a combination of Hunger Dogs. I only tweeted out one 106:04 official Hunger Dog. I have already put in Colts Giants Chargers. Straight bits. No. Oh. 106:12 Okay. And I'm guessing, so it's either gonna be Giants Chargers, Colts or Giants Chargers Packers. 106:19 I can say that with compliments. Okay. All right. Next game the fun game 106:24 Just because the Lions defense are featured Lions minus five and a half 106:28 Over under 54 and a half against the Cardinals 106:31 Yeah, I mean, I I don't know what to make of the Lions and in terms of like their defense 106:35 I they just have to get healthy, right? Like they're just so bad right now. They're so bad 106:41 They I think help is on the way. Okay. I heard that Brian Branch might be practicing. Okay 106:48 So that they are going to get healthier and the defense is at a spot where it's like historically bad 106:53 So I expect that it's gonna maybe rounded to form and just be average bad 106:58 They're there last in every category and so points per game yards per game passing yards per game 107:06 Third down defense fourth down defense. There's third down defense 107:09 They're giving up a first down fifty two point eight percent of the time and there are a hundred percent of time 107:14 when a team has gone for fourth down, they're five for five have gotten it and this is the 107:20 one that's really bad. The most first downs allowed. The second highest is 96. The Lions 107:26 have given up 113 first downs 113 first downs over four games each. So they need to it's 107:34 bad, but bad also means good because when we have three games in the afternoon slot 107:39 and all three are stinkers. That sucks. I feel like the Lions are like, I looked at this line 107:46 and I was like, Hey, is this when I should bet on the Lions? I just don't know with that defense 107:50 if you can win by five and a half points. I think the Lions will win this game. But like, 107:54 think about it. If they're up a touchdown at the end of the game, the Cardinals can go score. 107:58 I think you have to count on on Jacobi Bresset giving one back. 108:01 Yeah, but even 10 points. Let's say this 10 point game, four minutes left. 108:06 Cardinals have the ball. Do you feel confident in five and a half? 108:09 No, no, no, no, if it's that close and they have the ball, no, it's going to be backdoor. 108:13 100%. 108:13 Yes. 108:14 So that's the tough part when you're betting on a team with that bad of a defense. 108:18 Jared Goff has won nine straight against the Cardinals. 108:21 Okay, that makes me feel a little more confident. 108:22 So it's foreign to him to lose a game like this. 108:24 I do think the Lions are going to win this game. 108:28 The Cardinals are going their black alternate uniforms this week. 108:31 Does that mean anything to you? 108:33 Yes. 108:33 It means that they're probably listening to Metallica in practice. 108:36 And no, the Cardinals. 108:37 The Cardinals. 108:38 Yeah, the Cardinals Cardinals are they playing that are they wearing that during the game as well? Yes 108:44 Yeah, I think I do think that that's more at home for Dan Campbell 108:48 Do you think Cortez is going to match that he has to right? I think Cortez does he he doesn't switch uniforms 108:54 I don't know. He might not I think he's just got the standard old school 1980s helmet the super baggy Jersey 109:00 I don't think he wears like the splattering one that he wore the other that the team wore the other week 109:05 Yeah. 109:06 I don't think he messes around with rivalry jerseys or throwbacks or color rush or anything 109:12 like Cortez is who he is. 109:13 Why don't the Cardinals play Carson Beck? 109:17 Because Jacobi Bresset. 109:20 Okay. 109:20 Yeah. 109:21 I think I figured out why Jacobi Bresset gets such a long leash in this league. 109:27 Besides the fact that he seems like a good guy. 109:29 Yeah, he seems like the man. 109:30 He's the man. 109:31 He's a very, you know, he's an average backup quarterback, I would say. 109:35 but like people will give Jacobi Bresset a lot of chances in this league and I'm happy for him. 109:41 Did you know that he was like best friends with Bill Parcells growing up? 109:44 No. So yeah, like when he was in high school, Bill Parcells was around him and was like, 109:50 there's this high school quarterback, Jacobi. He's really good. They used to, 109:55 they used to go to breakfast together like a few times a week. 109:58 This does sound vaguely familiar. Yeah. 110:00 So like Bill Parcells is like his mentor kind of. So there will be an endless supply of 110:04 coaches in the NFL that are willing 110:06 to give Jacobi Berset a job. 110:08 I mean, Parcell still has the cachet. 110:10 And I'm happy for it too. 110:11 Like Jacobi Berset seems like the kind of guy 110:13 that you would want to have in the supply jobs. 110:15 And if you catch Jacobi Berset in the right, 110:18 like five minutes span, he can look really good. 110:21 Yeah. 110:22 If you watch the whole game, no. 110:24 I would even say it's half by half basis with Jacobi. 110:27 It's like, let's go quarter by quarter. 110:28 Okay. Yeah. 110:30 Quarter by quarter feels right. 110:31 Cause he can go good quarter, first quarter, 110:33 quarter, bad quarter, bad quarter, good quarter. Yeah. Lose by 20. Alright, last game. This 110:39 is going to be a great game in the afternoon window. 49ers at Seahawks. This is a fun game 110:45 because it's Seahawks minus three over under 45 and a half. How good are the 49ers? That 110:50 is what this game is to me. I don't even know if they have to win the game for me 110:54 to come away from it being like they're really good. I think just don't allow kickoff 110:59 return for a touchdown in the opening kick. Yeah. And we got progress. And how does 111:02 your offense which is unbelievable look against the Seahawks defense and listen the 49ers defense 111:09 has played good ball in the fact they don't give up explosives and you know that the same 111:14 Donald's going to want to try to push the ball downfield. I'm very excited for this. 111:18 Yeah, very excited. The 49ers win this game. Let's say Brock 111:22 Purdy hypothetical stat line. Two touchdowns. No interceptions. 280 yards is Brock 111:29 party your MVP through five weeks. I think he is right now anyway. I think he is. Yeah, 111:34 I think he is. I think we need to have a discussion just as as Americans we need to 111:39 prepare ourselves like Brock Purdy. He is the MVP right now. Will he get sacked? 111:45 I think so. I think he's gonna get sacked. McDonald's too good. Yeah, because he hasn't 111:49 been sacked so far. It's pretty fucking awesome. Yeah. Yeah, I'm excited for this game. Big 111:54 time excited, especially with what happened last year where it was just not even a competitive 111:58 of game in the playoffs. 112:00 This is going to be this is going to be a fun one. 112:03 Do you think the Seahawks miss Kenneth Walker? 112:06 Yes, especially with all the injuries now. 112:08 So they didn't they brought in Joe mixing, but then said, nah, I guess so. 112:12 So he had mystery foot. 112:14 So I saw someone start a rumor that he shot his own dead foot. 112:17 You had a mystery foot. 112:18 Someone said he shot his own. 112:19 That's what happened to me. 112:20 Yeah, it turns out the Seahawks 112:22 decided not to go sign veteran running back Joe mix into their practice squad 112:27 after you're underwent a physical for the team, 112:29 per league source, mixing were made and free. 112:31 Do you think they just took off a shoe 112:32 and they're like, hey, did you shoot your foot? 112:34 Yeah, they were like gross. 112:35 Yeah, that's just a rumor, by the way. 112:36 It's not actually real, I don't think. 112:38 You might just have funky feet. 112:40 That's true. 112:41 And they're like, ew, no, no, thanks. 112:42 But yeah, the whole, the way that it went down 112:44 in Houston was very strange to the point where like, 112:47 I think we probably don't want to know 112:49 all the details behind everything. 112:51 Because it was so weirdly secretive about it. 112:55 So, yeah, he got an invite out to Seattle. 112:57 They're not gonna fly him out 112:58 if they're not gonna sign him, right? 112:59 And then they did the physical. 113:01 Yeah. 113:01 And they said, no, we can't do it. 113:03 But I think that they do miss Kenneth Walker a lot. 113:05 A lot. 113:06 I don't know if they regret. 113:07 I mean, the way that it worked out, 113:09 all he did was get a Super Bowl MVP 113:11 and then probably increase the price of the sale 113:14 by like a hundred million dollars or more. 113:16 Yeah. 113:17 And then he left, 113:17 because they were like, 113:18 no, we can't give you any money. 113:20 We don't really have any, 113:21 but thank you for making us all that money this year. 113:23 Not a credible source why it's world no offense to why it's world 113:28 Content creator for Bill's mafia. Oh, okay. Yeah, he said I'm hearing rumors that Joe mixing literally shot himself in the foot 113:34 And blew his toe clean off. What's sad is that it's a very very believable story. Mm-hmm 113:41 But you're the one reporting it 113:44 Algo stellar also said not a rumor wasn't his toe either and it was it was the middle of his foot 113:50 Oh, he blew the middle of his foot off. So we got Wyatt's world and Al go stellar. That's such a brutal to be like 113:55 I shot I shot myself in my foot 113:57 You can't really you can't really blow off the middle of your foot. Can you know? 114:03 That's like pretty if you blow off the middle of it you blow off the whole foot. Yeah, the whole thing's gone. Yeah 114:08 It's a generate foot issue is what doctors are saying. Oh, there is a bunch of people say 114:16 this oh 114:16 Man. All right, Joe makes it. Maybe you got to come out and do like a foot reveal. Nah, you got to make people pay for that 114:22 What is it? What's the only feet? Tutsis? 114:26 Tutsis their website a foot finder foot finder. Yeah, Joe makes it just does a foot reveal on foot finder 114:32 Number one offense according to DVO a versus number one defense according to DVO a 114:38 Excited. Yeah. Do you guys have a lien in this game? I kind of want to take the Niners see y'all. Yeah. I was thinking Seahawks, too 114:44 Okay, but now I hope the night is when it feels like it's probably gonna be a field goal game one way there 114:49 Yeah, yeah, all right last game Sunday football Ravens Falcons Ravens are plus three and a half over under is 43 and a half 114:58 Tyler Huntley so Lamar's injury is enough that he's gonna be out for a couple weeks Tyler Huntley 115:03 Mid ankle spraying mid ankle spray. Yeah, it's not high. It's not low. So it's like a lame ankle spring 115:11 I don't know it 115:12 when somebody says like I'm not tall I'm not short that means that you're short 115:16 mid ankle ankle so might be more lower than it is mid I I uh alright so let's 115:25 start with this Falcons been awesome awesome they also are wearing their red 115:29 jersey black pants combo on Sunday football so they're gonna they are 115:33 they have been awesome they're going to look awesome the primetime Falcons 115:38 have been a thing this season I think I'm gonna bet the Ravens just because 115:42 because it's such a sell high spot on the Falcons Falcons could win the game by a field like Tyler Huntley isn't he's going to keep them in the game ish, right. 115:52 I wonder what's going to happen. 115:54 You think Cam Jurgen is going to play. 115:56 I doubt it right. 115:57 Well, because you know, yeah, why not. 115:59 Remember we talked about that that have been filling in for him. 116:01 Yeah, like they had a they had a guard that never played center before rookie that was trying to snap the ball. 116:06 So I feel like they probably are going to try to get him to play. 116:09 Yeah, he might be right. 116:11 I don't max he's been playing for the birds, right? 116:17 You're gonna have to ask me Juergens. Oh 116:19 Juergens, he's been playing left guard and bad. He's been the worst worst ranked player in the NFL because he's center 116:25 But he was all so bad in his first game as a center 116:27 Okay, also bad last year as a center, but I like came Juergens 116:31 I'm just thinking we're trying to figure out if he's gonna play or not. He's not gonna play 116:34 He has he's in concussion protocol. Oh, okay 116:37 Okay, glad we went to you. He got my bad. Are you in concussion protocol max? I could be I was 116:43 I was looking, hand up. 116:45 I've had a bad, I haven't been locked in on this episode. 116:48 Hand up. 116:48 What happened? 116:49 I don't know, we started, 116:50 I started thinking about my bets for tonight 116:52 and then I started placing it. 116:53 He was on his phone. 116:54 Yeah, I just, I just took White Sox, 116:58 White Sox minus 105 for tonight. 117:00 I like the White Sox tonight. 117:01 Okay, that'll be really, really good 117:03 for when people get to this portion of the episode. 117:05 But yeah, Cam Jurgen's not gonna play. 117:07 It looks like he's going to make his debut 117:09 next week for the Ravens. 117:10 Okay, I'm glad that we went to Max on this one. 117:13 By the way, Harold Perkins, Jr. for the Falcons been they that was a homerun pick through four weeks. He's been awesome 117:18 He's obviously remember the guy who popped his I think it was his freshman year at LSU and then had not maybe not a great 117:25 Couple years after that, but he looks awesome 117:27 And that like when you get a draft pick like that not a top draft pick who plays well 117:33 That's a big bonus for their team. And I know the Falcons have some injuries on defense that they're still dealing with but I 117:41 I think they might be good. I don't know. This is like, I mean, yeah, they got some injuries, 117:48 but they're they're very, very good against the run. Yeah. On defense. Yeah. I'm saying 117:52 they're going to get healthy. That's kind of more like this is they should get stronger 117:55 and stronger. And it sucks that we can't do Lamar Jackson versus an NFC team because that's 118:00 free money. Can't say free money, but he wins all the time against NFC. It's very 118:05 cheap money. Yeah. Now, currently, Snoop Huntley, he's a pro footballer, good, good backup. 118:10 And this happens all the time. He's it's not like a surprise that he's gonna have to play. Yep 118:15 This is a mildly boring stat, but maybe you don't remember but the Ravens 118:20 Selected Hayden Hearst in the draft. Okay, and they took him before they drafted Lamar Jackson. Remember that I do 118:29 And then now he is a Falcon Wow, so revenge game 118:33 So they got the Falcons got a player better than Lamar Jackson. They have yeah 118:36 They've got a better maybe two players that are better than Lamar Jax per draft order. Okay. Do you want to is 118:43 Their offensive lineman gonna play who why did what oh Jake Matthews? Jake Matthews. It's gonna be like his what? 118:49 Do you want to start? There's only been a few guys have done that in a row. Let's see news Jake Matthews Jake Matthews 119:00 Jake Matthews and Zdarius miss that were estimated DNPs yesterday are both on the field going through stretches 119:06 All right, he's going to play. 119:07 OK, good for him. 119:10 200 starts in a row in the NFL is insane. 119:12 Especially at Lyman. 119:14 Good for him who started 200 games. 119:17 I know far of obviously Eli NFL, maybe Eli AI mode. 119:22 I'm going to go AI mode. 119:23 Guys started 200 NFL games. 119:26 Nope, I got it wrong. 119:28 It doesn't have it doesn't give it to me 119:30 the way I need it consecutive. 119:32 Max, give me consecutive. 119:35 I 119:35 Said scored scored 200 games.
