- 0:00Speaker 1: This Thursday night football game sure does feel different, doesn't it?
- 0:03Speaker 1: The dog pound is going to be rabid. The hated
- 0:06Speaker 1: Steelers in town. We got your Browns going to Browns
- 0:09Speaker 1: right here, buddy. Cleveland with a 2-1 record that very
- 0:13Speaker 1: few people saw coming.
- 0:15Speaker 2: And throw up a duck and it's answered by an
- 0:18Speaker 2: interception for the Browns.
- 0:19Speaker 3: And that will seal the deal.
- 0:22Speaker 1: Pittsburgh and aaron rogers pulling the old man facing the
- 0:25Speaker 1: cart and holy grail we're not dead yet we feel
- 0:28Speaker 1: happy maybe they'll go for a walk also sitting at
- 0:31Speaker 1: two and one sets up some good old-fashioned afc north beef.
- 0:36Speaker 4: Burrow gets away for a moment loses the ball dealers
- 0:39Speaker 4: try to jump on top of it and they do.
- 0:42Speaker 1: Black and Gold's defense sealed Pittsburgh's Week 3 win, but
- 0:45Speaker 1: it was their offense that led the way, finally. After
- 0:48Speaker 1: going for 20 Week 1 points, then just 3 in
- 0:51Speaker 1: Week 2, they woke up and hung 30 on a
- 0:54Speaker 1: defense everybody was raving about. 7 for 12 on 3rd down,
- 0:58Speaker 1: by far the best their O has looked.
- 1:01Speaker 5: Off his back foot, floated up in the air, caught by.
- 1:03Speaker 3: Wilson, and he's gone!
- 1:05Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers hits Week 4 hot. Over 290 yards, three TDs,
- 1:10Speaker 1: over 8.5 yards per attempt, a rating over 100, first
- 1:14Speaker 1: 90-plus rate game in three tries.
- 1:17Speaker 5: Rodgers looking, wide open, touchdown to Metcalf!
- 1:22Speaker 1: The Cleveland defense he gets comes off two good games
- 1:25Speaker 1: in a row. The secondary he gets next comes off
- 1:27Speaker 1: back-to-back strong showings versus the pass. Held Bryce Young to
- 1:31Speaker 1: a 70 rate, 6.1 yards per attempt, picked him off
- 1:34Speaker 1: after taking care of Baker Mayfield the week before. That's
- 1:38Speaker 1: two straight holding the quarterback to sub-75 rate performances.
- 1:41Speaker 2: They gave up 291 yards to Young, but on 48
- 1:42Speaker 2: pass attempts, they held Carolina to just 1-for-3 in the
- 1:45Speaker 2: red zone, just 4-for-15 on third down, fewer.
- 1:46Speaker 1: Than 5 yards per play. to 18 points. So that's
- 2:01Speaker 1: back-to-back shifts holding teams under 20.
- 2:04Speaker 3: Sacked!
- 2:05Speaker 2: Bryce Young back at the 19-yard line. Could not get away.
- 2:09Speaker 1: And Rodgers still has to worry about MG. Yeah, the
- 2:13Speaker 1: Browns still have one, and he started the year on fire.
- 2:16Speaker 1: Mason Graham looking to start the season with a sack
- 2:18Speaker 1: and four straight after putting up a two-back game in
- 2:22Speaker 1: their win over Carolina. The second, a huge fourth-quarter job.
- 2:26Speaker 1: Cleveland's pass rush with three sacks a week ago and
- 2:29Speaker 1: a fat 51% pressure rate.
- 2:32Speaker 3: Guess what I found? Bryce Young. Go ahead and eat,
- 2:35Speaker 3: big fella. This is your day.
- 2:37Speaker 1: Rodgers took two sacks versus Cincinnati, 34 pass attempts, faced
- 2:41Speaker 1: pressure 35% of the time, average territory, guard Mason McCormick,
- 2:46Speaker 1: tagged with allowing both sacks by next-gen stats.
- 2:49Speaker 4: Pump fake, and Rodgers will be whistled down.
- 2:53Speaker 1: Rodgers was betrayed again by some slippery hands, his pick
- 2:57Speaker 1: set up by his own guy. Five Steelers enter off
- 3:00Speaker 1: 30-plus yard games. Tight end Pat Friermuth with 30. DK
- 3:04Speaker 1: Metcalf caught a TD with 31. Roman Wilson hauled in
- 3:07Speaker 1: a touchdown with 60 yards to help balance out his mishap.
- 3:11Speaker 3: Rodgers, look at end zone. Touchdown. You like offense? You're
- 3:15Speaker 3: getting it.
- 3:15Speaker 1: And Mount Washington erupted for a 47-yard reception. Darnell, a
- 3:20Speaker 1: 67-yard week three.
- 3:22Speaker 5: The big man works his way to the sideline.
- 3:24Speaker 4: When you feel the earth move from Mount Washington.
- 3:29Speaker 1: Browns DBs he faces off with did give up a
- 3:32Speaker 1: lot of tight end yards last week, gave up 41
- 3:34Speaker 1: to Tommy Tremble, 51 to Darren Waller, 83 yards to
- 3:38Speaker 1: wideout Bryson Tremaine, corner Makai Blackman giving up a team-high
- 3:42Speaker 1: 71 yards. But he faced 10 targets, too, and they
- 3:46Speaker 1: held Tedaroa McMillan to 17 yards. Along the ground, they
- 3:50Speaker 1: gave up 82 yards to Chuba Hubbard on 4-3 a carry.
- 3:53Speaker 2: Hubbard is going to get the first down. Chuba Hubbard
- 3:56Speaker 2: out of bounds.
- 3:57Speaker 1: They gave up over 80 yards on 5 a carry
- 4:00Speaker 1: to Bucky Irving the week prior. That's potentially relevant because
- 4:03Speaker 1: Jalen Warren is next and, like Rodgers, comes off his
- 4:06Speaker 1: best outing yet. 49 receiving yards plus 127 rush yards
- 4:11Speaker 1: versus Cincinnati on a hefty 7-5 a pop.
- 4:15Speaker 3: Hand it off to Jalen Warren.
- 4:19Speaker 1: That side of the coin is strength versus strength based
- 4:22Speaker 1: on recent results. The other side is tarnished as each
- 4:25Speaker 1: team has some things to clean up. Now, Deshaun Watson
- 4:28Speaker 1: came through in the clutch. No picks, two touchdowns, the
- 4:32Speaker 1: second late to put them in.
- 4:33Speaker 3: The lead again.
- 4:34Speaker 1: It's as favorable a position he's been in with the
- 4:37Speaker 1: fan base in a long time.
- 4:39Speaker 2: Watson does throw, and in the end zone, they convert. Yeah,
- 4:43Speaker 2: give it to me to the dog pound, he says.
- 4:45Speaker 1: Now, no one's writing home about 4.8 yards per attempt
- 4:48Speaker 1: or going 5 for 15 on third down. 4.1 yards
- 4:52Speaker 1: per play is worse than their average last year, and
- 4:55Speaker 1: they were last on that front. 21 points, they haven't
- 4:58Speaker 1: hit 24 yet.
- 4:59Speaker 3: Bam here, bam here. Carolina like they've been in their
- 5:03Speaker 3: playbook right there.
- 5:04Speaker 1: The Steelers' defense they line up against went from being
- 5:07Speaker 1: the group making them look respectable and held each team
- 5:10Speaker 1: under 21 to giving up 27 points to a Bengals
- 5:14Speaker 1: offense that hadn't been able to really get it going
- 5:16Speaker 1: until they met up.
- 5:18Speaker 5: Burrow, guns it downfield, it's caught with the go-ahead touchdown!
- 5:23Speaker 1: The secondary Watson is eyeing, gave up 282 yards and
- 5:27Speaker 1: three touchdowns to Joe Burrow, no picks, a rate allowed
- 5:30Speaker 1: over 120, roughest they've looked on the young season.
- 5:34Speaker 3: Look it up top, and somehow ends up in the
- 5:38Speaker 3: hands of T. Higgins!
- 5:40Speaker 1: That sack that sealed the game was the only one
- 5:43Speaker 1: they had Week 3. They didn't even pressure Burrow 30%
- 5:46Speaker 1: of the time, so T.J. Watt and company, looking to
- 5:49Speaker 1: make a bigger trench impact, Watson took two sacks, 30
- 5:52Speaker 1: pass attempts versus Carolina. Rookie left tackle Spencer Fano, tagged
- 5:57Speaker 1: by NGS with both. He's now allowed three and a
- 6:00Speaker 1: half over three games.
- 6:01Speaker 3: Gave a soft corner for the rookie tackle. Major loss
- 6:05Speaker 3: of 10 yards. What a play.
- 6:06Speaker 1: When the ball is up for grabs, only two Browns
- 6:09Speaker 1: enter this battle off 40-plus yard games. Casey Concepcion only
- 6:13Speaker 1: had nine versus the Panthers. Denzel Boston with 41.
- 6:17Speaker 2: Throws right on target. Wondering when he would have his
- 6:20Speaker 2: first catch. Denzel Boston.
- 6:22Speaker 1: Tight end Harold Fannin with both Watsons touchdowns, 51 yards.
- 6:26Speaker 3: On the move. Enzo throws. Touchdown, Browns! What a play!
- 6:31Speaker 1: Pittsburgh gave up a touchdown to tight end Mike Gasicki,
- 6:33Speaker 1: 90-plus yards and TDs to both Jamar Chase and Tee Higgins.
- 6:37Speaker 1: Cornerback Asante Samuel in need of a rebound as NGS
- 6:41Speaker 1: blamed him for two of the touchdowns allowed last week.
- 6:44Speaker 1: And they have to tighten up versus the run. Only
- 6:46Speaker 1: 61 yards allowed to Chase Brown, but 4-7 to carry
- 6:50Speaker 1: on 13 tries. Didn't play Travion Henderson well Week 2 either.
- 6:54Speaker 3: Second down and eight. Motion man is Chase. It's a
- 6:56Speaker 3: blast up the middle to Brown.
- 6:58Speaker 1: Quinshawn Judkins next in line. He racked up 70 yards
- 7:02Speaker 1: versus the Panthers.
- 7:03Speaker 3: Straight ahead. Judkins. First down inside the 30-yard line.
- 7:08Speaker 1: 18 attempts, so still under four yards per carry. Has
- 7:11Speaker 1: been under that all three games, but it was improvement.
- 7:14Speaker 1: And Watson escaped for 45 yards. 132 rush yards total
- 7:18Speaker 1: for the team. Way better than weeks one and two.
- 7:21Speaker 3: Say, hey, man, we're going to get to the edge.
- 7:23Speaker 3: You guys are going to have to do something for us.
- 7:25Speaker 3: And look at the misdirection. That is good team football.
- 7:28Speaker 1: Time to wake up with the breakfast club, hang out
- 7:31Speaker 1: with Bender, Claire, Principal Vernon, Carl the janitor, to watch
- 7:35Speaker 1: some early morning London football, two teams coming off victories too,
- 7:40Speaker 1: Indianapolis Colts, the last second variety that finally got them
- 7:44Speaker 1: into the win column.
- 7:45Speaker 2: Snap is low, handled well, kick is on the way,
- 7:47Speaker 2: end over end, it is good! And with 16 seconds left,
- 7:53Speaker 2: the Colts have taken the.
- 7:55Speaker 3: Lead, 19-17!
- 7:58Speaker 1: Don't mess with the bull, young man. You'll get the horns.
- 8:01Speaker 1: They meet up with the Washington Commanders, who fly in
- 8:03Speaker 1: off the biggest upset of Week 3. What a way
- 8:06Speaker 1: to win their first game.
- 8:08Speaker 3: Mariota pulls it.
- 8:09Speaker 2: Old Marcus Mariota, Oregon style, dives ahead first down.
- 8:15Speaker 6: Wow.
- 8:16Speaker 1: Oregon's backup QB game was strong last week, wasn't it?
- 8:20Speaker 1: First that USC game, then former Duck Marcus Mariota vs. Seattle,
- 8:25Speaker 1: steps in for Jaden Daniels and throws three TDs without
- 8:28Speaker 1: any INTs, a 1-10 rate, Washington's offense put up over
- 8:32Speaker 1: 24 points for the first time, accounting for 27 last week,
- 8:36Speaker 1: and that was 27 versus the vaunted dark side Seattle defense, too.
- 8:41Speaker 2: Mariota steps up, scans, throws, White for the touchdown! Rashad
- 8:47Speaker 2: White has his first touchdown in a commander's uniform.
- 8:50Speaker 1: Okay, Indianapolis' defense isn't looking at an O-face coming in
- 8:54Speaker 1: on fire, though. They went three for 13 on third down,
- 8:57Speaker 1: averaged a paltry four yards per play. Their defenders, meantime,
- 9:01Speaker 1: enter off their best 20-26 outing. After giving up 33
- 9:05Speaker 1: points the first two games, they held Houston to 17.
- 9:09Speaker 1: Four for 11 on third down, just 4.4 yards per play.
- 9:13Speaker 1: Their secondary holding C.J. Stroud to 167 yards on 6-2
- 9:17Speaker 1: per attempt.
- 9:18Speaker 2: Pass is knocked away, incompletes. Well, that's just solid defense
- 9:22Speaker 2: by Wally.
- 9:23Speaker 1: Mariota having to try and elude a Colts pass rush.
- 9:26Speaker 1: that comes in off a three-bag shopping trip. 27 pass attempts.
- 9:30Speaker 1: DeForest Buckner, quack, quack again. Now at three sacks after
- 9:34Speaker 1: getting strowed one and a half times.
- 9:36Speaker 7: The interior offensive line, a weaker spot for the Houston
- 9:39Speaker 7: Texans and DeForest Buckner able to take advantage of the
- 9:42Speaker 7: rookie that time.
- 9:43Speaker 1: For the record, Colts didn't blitz much versus Houston, didn't
- 9:47Speaker 1: generate much pressure either. Now Buckner goes after his old teammate,
- 9:51Speaker 1: Marcus took two sacks on 31 pass attempts versus Seattle,
- 9:54Speaker 1: did take nine hits, barely got blitzed, and still faced
- 9:58Speaker 1: pressure over 40% of the time.
- 10:00Speaker 2: Mariota's in trouble. Drilled at the one. Derek Hall, he's
- 10:05Speaker 2: got his first sack.
- 10:06Speaker 3: Of the year.
- 10:07Speaker 1: He has Stephon Diggs to work with, only 33 yards
- 10:10Speaker 1: week three. Antonio Williams, just 15. Jalen Lane, 21. Terry McLaurin,
- 10:16Speaker 1: the only guy to go for 35-plus, he caught a
- 10:19Speaker 1: touchdown to go along with 77 yards, his best 2026
- 10:24Speaker 1: game so far.
- 10:24Speaker 2: For this, on second and eight, Loftin wants McLaurin. He
- 10:28Speaker 2: goes up to get it for a touchdown. Terry McLaurin,
- 10:33Speaker 2: scary again.
- 10:35Speaker 1: Colts DBs they do battle with this week held every
- 10:38Speaker 1: Texan but one to 30 yards or fewer, 51 yards
- 10:42Speaker 1: allowed to Xavier Hutchinson. But their front seven also is
- 10:45Speaker 1: flexing heading into this matchup as they held Houston to
- 10:49Speaker 1: 70 rush yards, just 3.3 a carry.
- 10:51Speaker 2: The tight end in motion, they give it off to
- 10:53Speaker 2: Woody Marks, and Marks is stopped.
- 10:55Speaker 1: After racking up over 180 rush yards versus Dallas Week 2,
- 11:00Speaker 1: Washington left last week with just 82. Jacory Kroski-Merritt hasn't
- 11:04Speaker 1: hit it for a run in a game yet. 19 attempts,
- 11:07Speaker 1: only 36 yards last week, an average of 1.9. Rashad
- 11:12Speaker 1: White broke free for that big late-game run to finish
- 11:15Speaker 1: at 4-4, a carry at least.
- 11:17Speaker 2: It's a handoff to Rashad White. Rashad White has a
- 11:20Speaker 2: first down, stays inbounds. My goodness, everybody at the line,
- 11:26Speaker 2: and White goes around him.
- 11:27Speaker 1: The back on the other team is who most eyes
- 11:30Speaker 1: will be on, but Jonathan Taylor is trying to rebound himself.
- 11:33Speaker 1: Just three per attempt versus Houston, 68 yards. That's back-to-back games.
- 11:38Speaker 1: He's finished under.
- 11:39Speaker 3: Four a carry, too.
- 11:40Speaker 2: Jones hands the ball off, trying to get the running
- 11:43Speaker 2: game going. Both teams are trying to establish that.
- 11:45Speaker 1: Lots to fix with that Colts offense. Only 19 points.
- 11:49Speaker 3: Versus the Texans.
- 11:50Speaker 1: That's two out of three. They've been under 24. They
- 11:53Speaker 1: turned the ball over three times a week ago, have
- 11:55Speaker 1: given it away at least once in each game. Just
- 11:58Speaker 1: 4.2 yards per play last week.
- 12:01Speaker 3: He sees Anderson on that side. He's in trouble.
- 12:05Speaker 2: He fumbled the football. It's loose on the field. Anderson
- 12:08Speaker 2: knocked it away. Zoghii was able to get the football.
- 12:13Speaker 1: Daniel Jones with all three turnovers, two lost fumbles, and
- 12:17Speaker 1: he was picked off late, too. is on a three-game
- 12:20Speaker 1: pick streak that has some fans mumbling, dimes more like
- 12:23Speaker 1: Danny donations.
- 12:25Speaker 2: Blankenship able to force another turnover for the Texans. Here
- 12:28Speaker 2: comes Anderson powering in. Him and Hunter were both there.
- 12:32Speaker 2: And then Blankenship playing center field. Took care of the rest.
- 12:37Speaker 1: It was against that tough Houston defense. His line needs
- 12:40Speaker 1: to help him out, too. He was only blitzed 26%
- 12:43Speaker 1: of his throws. He was pressured 46% of the time.
- 12:47Speaker 1: He took four sacks. Right tackle Jalen Travis has to
- 12:51Speaker 1: get off the struggle bus. Two and a half sacks
- 12:53Speaker 1: allowed with a whopping 24% pressure rate allowed. He gave
- 12:58Speaker 1: up 10 pressures, most of any lineman last week.
- 13:01Speaker 2: First down, off the play fake. Jones looking to throw.
- 13:03Speaker 2: Pressure's coming. Anderson knocks the football away. The ball is loose.
- 13:07Speaker 2: It's picked up by Anderson.
- 13:09Speaker 8: Wow.
- 13:10Speaker 3: Will Anderson is causing havoc.
- 13:13Speaker 1: Washington's pass rush and defense not on Houston's level. They
- 13:17Speaker 1: didn't sack Sam Darnold once last week on 45 opportunities.
- 13:22Speaker 1: They gave up 31 points to Seattle, let him convert
- 13:25Speaker 1: four or five red zone trips, have allowed 24-plus points
- 13:28Speaker 1: in each game thus far.
- 13:30Speaker 2: Darnold with a flag down gets a first down. Dorrance
- 13:33Speaker 2: Armstrong ushers him out of bounds. Let's see what this flag's.
- 13:36Speaker 3: For, though. Holding. Number zero. Defense.
- 13:40Speaker 1: The secondary DJ Wrangles with, gave up 270-plus yards and
- 13:44Speaker 1: four TDs to Dak Prescott Week 2, then gave up
- 13:47Speaker 1: over 370 yards on over eight yards per attempt to Darnold,
- 13:52Speaker 1: a 100-plus rate Week 3. Their DBs gave up 46
- 13:56Speaker 1: yards and a TD to Cooper Cupp, 48 to George Holani,
- 13:59Speaker 1: 48 to Torrey Horton, 69 to A.J. Barner, 128 and
- 14:05Speaker 1: two TDs to Jackson Smith and Jigba, Corner Mike Sainrestill
- 14:08Speaker 1: gave up two touchdowns. Second week in a row, he's
- 14:12Speaker 1: allowed as many.
- 14:13Speaker 3: Getting a man look here with Cooper Cup. See if
- 14:16Speaker 3: he likes it. He's wide open. Touchdown. In the blink
- 14:19Speaker 3: of an eye, the champs strike back.
- 14:21Speaker 1: They do come off a three-takeaway game, though. Two INTs,
- 14:25Speaker 1: one a house call. They hadn't come up with any
- 14:27Speaker 1: their first two games. The main three guys, they have
- 14:30Speaker 1: to try and stop through the air this week. Tyler
- 14:32Speaker 1: Warren comes off a 55-yard game.
- 14:35Speaker 7: Daniel Jones able to hit Tyler Warren right there in
- 14:37Speaker 7: that honey hole in the cover two zone.
- 14:40Speaker 1: Keenan Allen with a TD in 63 yards.
- 14:42Speaker 2: Jones steps up, throws toward the goal line, passes complete.
- 14:45Speaker 2: Keenan Allen, touchdown Colts.
- 14:49Speaker 1: And Josh Downs, who led them last week with 77.
- 14:52Speaker 3: Jones looking to throw again.
- 14:54Speaker 2: Jones steps up in the pocket, throws to the near sideline,
- 14:56Speaker 2: passes complete to the near sideline to Downs. Downs cuts
- 14:59Speaker 2: back inside the 30.
- 15:01Speaker 1: As to stopping Taylor, Commander's Front has had good command
- 15:04Speaker 1: of runners. Aside from one long run allowed to Saquon
- 15:07Speaker 1: week one, they have held their ground. Stuffed Dallas' Javante Williams,
- 15:12Speaker 1: then took care of Seattle's three backs, held the Hawks
- 15:15Speaker 1: to 44 rush yards, just 2.4 per attempt.
- 15:17Speaker 2: Toss for Jadarian Price. Not a whole lot there. The
- 15:22Speaker 2: ball came out, and there is the first takeaway of
- 15:25Speaker 2: the year for the Commanders.
- 15:28Speaker 1: Arizona Cardinals head east, hoping they can get back to.
- 15:32Speaker 1: 500 on the young season, hoping playing NFC West teams
- 15:35Speaker 1: is the problem. No offense to the Red Sea, but
- 15:42Speaker 1: the Giants are looking at this game as a legit
- 15:45Speaker 1: shot to get to 3-1 despite all their injuries. just
- 15:53Speaker 1: need Javon Holland to pick off a pass and four
- 15:55Speaker 1: straight maybe. Giants defense stepped up again and might need
- 16:00Speaker 1: to again. May take an even stronger effort this week though,
- 16:03Speaker 1: especially since they lost Brian Burns for the year. Please
- 16:07Speaker 1: make it stop already. New York, though, has held two
- 16:10Speaker 1: of their three opponents to fewer than 21 points after
- 16:13Speaker 1: limiting Tennessee to seven points, held them to fewer than
- 16:16Speaker 1: five yards per play, and five for 13 on third down.
- 16:23Speaker 1: They had that pick of Cam Ward, plus held him
- 16:26Speaker 1: under 185 passing yards to five yards per attempt. They've
- 16:30Speaker 1: held two of the three quarterbacks they've faced to less
- 16:33Speaker 1: than 185 yards.
- 16:36Speaker 3: Chased out of the pocket, throws on the run, and
- 16:38Speaker 3: it is incomplete.
- 16:40Speaker 1: Jacoby Brissett represents a tougher challenge based on his Week
- 16:43Speaker 1: 3 outing. He put up 280 yards, two TDs, a
- 16:47Speaker 1: rate close to 100. He's been good for 275-plus yards
- 16:51Speaker 1: in two of three.
- 16:52Speaker 8: Brissett on the boot. It's Wilson to the goal line.
- 16:55Speaker 8: He's in for an Arizona touchdown.
- 16:58Speaker 1: Giants defense, looking at an Arizona offense that cracked 30
- 17:02Speaker 1: points on the road, went 9-for-18 on third down, 3-for-5
- 17:06Speaker 1: in the red zone. They went for 26 points week one, too,
- 17:10Speaker 1: so they're capable of lighting up the scoreboard.
- 17:13Speaker 8: One with the catch and the touchdown.
- 17:17Speaker 1: Jacoby only averaged 5.4 yards per attempt, their offense only
- 17:21Speaker 1: 4.5 per play, so could use a little more juice
- 17:25Speaker 1: this week, but it was a clean outing for him.
- 17:27Speaker 1: He only took two sacks despite throwing 52 times. He
- 17:31Speaker 1: only faced pressure 24% of the time. Every quarterback would
- 17:35Speaker 1: be happy with that kind of time. Set on the roll,
- 17:42Speaker 1: stacked against a Giants pass rush, Sands, Spiderman, and that
- 17:46Speaker 1: wasn't able to sack Ward once on 36 pass attempts
- 17:50Speaker 1: and didn't create much pressure. Giants secondary gave up a
- 17:56Speaker 1: TD and 57 yards to their old mate Wondell Robinson.
- 18:00Speaker 1: Cornerback Colton Hood tagged with the touchdown and 49 yards.
- 18:04Speaker 1: They gave up 58 yards to Carnell Tate. Now they
- 18:08Speaker 1: line up against Marvin Harrison, 40-yard effort versus San Francisco.
- 18:11Speaker 3: Marvin Harrison Jr. quiets this crowd.
- 18:16Speaker 1: Michael Wilson coming off his top 2026 showing, a touchdown
- 18:20Speaker 1: 89 yards.
- 18:21Speaker 3: First of the year for Michael Wilson.
- 18:24Speaker 1: And of course, Trey McBride, who went for 75 week
- 18:27Speaker 1: three yards, 75 plus yards and two of three, eight
- 18:31Speaker 1: or nine catches in each game.
- 18:33Speaker 3: Trey McBride to the 25-yard line.
- 18:36Speaker 1: And how about a little Cardinals ground game? Jeremiah Love
- 18:40Speaker 1: hits this week off his top 20-26 performance, 90 yards,
- 18:44Speaker 1: 4-3 a carry.
- 18:45Speaker 8: Trying to get to the edge, he does, and Love's
- 18:48Speaker 8: got a first down.
- 18:49Speaker 1: Maybe he builds off it, too. Giants gave up 4-4
- 18:53Speaker 1: a run to Tony Pollard, 74 yards, and they didn't
- 18:56Speaker 1: play L.A. 's backs well in week two, either.
- 18:58Speaker 3: On first down, Pollard breaks free. Tony Pollard cut from behind.
- 19:02Speaker 1: The other side of the coin is where we find
- 19:04Speaker 1: concerns for both teams. New York's offense came up with
- 19:08Speaker 1: four field goals versus Tennessee, four for 13 on third down,
- 19:12Speaker 1: 0 for 2 in the red zone. That, after only
- 19:15Speaker 1: putting up six points versus the Rams.
- 19:17Speaker 3: And they're going to run it with Skadaboo.
- 19:23Speaker 1: Jameis Winston struggled off the bench versus LA and as
- 19:27Speaker 1: a starter versus Tennessee. Just 118 yards on 5-4 per attempt,
- 19:32Speaker 1: not one New York pass catcher, Isaiah Likely, Darnell Mooney,
- 19:37Speaker 1: Malachi Fields, or Malik Neighbors with even 41 yards. They
- 19:46Speaker 1: do now have J.J. McCarthy in the building, so they're
- 19:50Speaker 1: is another option if things don't get better. Maybe they
- 19:53Speaker 1: can find something versus Nick Rollis' defense. Arizona's D.C. is
- 19:56Speaker 1: under fire after allowing 31-plus points back-to-back weeks, 36 to
- 20:01Speaker 1: San Francisco. Each time Arizona clawed back into it, they
- 20:05Speaker 1: let the Niners counter with a scoring drive.
- 20:08Speaker 3: It's McCaffrey going up top, tumbling down for the touchdown.
- 20:12Speaker 1: They gave up 8.7 yards per play. That is ugly.
- 20:17Speaker 1: Winston drawing a secondary that gave up 11 yards per
- 20:20Speaker 1: attempt to Brock Purdy, 297 yards, four TDs, no picks,
- 20:24Speaker 1: rate allowed over 130, which came a week after they
- 20:28Speaker 1: got torched by Drew Locke.
- 20:30Speaker 3: It's Purdy to throw over the middle. It's Kittle, Kittle, Kittle.
- 20:35Speaker 1: Jameis gets a pass rush that didn't come up with
- 20:37Speaker 1: a single sack of Purdy on 27 pass attempts, only
- 20:41Speaker 1: pressured him 14% of the time. That's nothing. McBride against
- 20:45Speaker 1: a secondary that allowed George Kittle to score twice, go
- 20:48Speaker 1: for 82 yards, and Cam Scadaboo facing a defense that
- 20:52Speaker 1: let CMC go for 5 yards per carry, a touchdown
- 20:55Speaker 1: 75 yards. McCaffrey into Cardinals territory.
- 20:59Speaker 3: Look at the pull!
- 21:01Speaker 1: Gadebu, the lone offensive bright spot for New York week three,
- 21:05Speaker 1: 40 receiving yards, 60 rushing yards.
- 21:09Speaker 3: Gadebu cuts it up inside. Gadebu with the 10 and
- 21:11Speaker 3: wrestled down.
- 21:12Speaker 1: He only hit a three a run, though. Najee Harris,
- 21:15Speaker 1: on the other hand, went for 52 yards, 5'8 a pop.
- 21:17Speaker 1: Harris again, giving.
- 21:18Speaker 9: The Giants a burst of energy.
- 21:22Speaker 1: Both teams need to clean up the penalties. They each
- 21:25Speaker 1: took 10 last week, made things harder than they needed
- 21:28Speaker 1: to be. Tighten up? More like tighten down, as Tennessee
- 21:32Speaker 1: takes to the road Week 4 still winless. Questions are mounting.
- 21:36Speaker 1: If you can't beat a famous Jameis outfit, then who
- 21:39Speaker 1: can you beat?
- 21:40Speaker 3: Ward throws across his body! Intercepted!
- 21:44Speaker 1: They would have to pull off quite the upset this
- 21:46Speaker 1: week because they're in Baltimore. Ravens playing that last kick
- 21:49Speaker 1: on a loop on their flight home from Rio, I bet.
- 21:53Speaker 3: Looped kick!
- 21:58Speaker 1: Tyler going full Lloyd Christmas and totally redeeming himself. Now
- 22:03Speaker 1: the Ravens have to make sure they don't blow what's
- 22:05Speaker 1: supposed to be a layup, but it happens. Just ask
- 22:08Speaker 1: Seattle last week, for example. But if Baltimore's big three
- 22:12Speaker 1: are out there doing their thing, the flock will feel
- 22:15Speaker 1: pretty good about their chances. What if Lamar has more
- 22:18Speaker 1: than seven seconds to work with? Jackson, feeling good as
- 22:21Speaker 1: he was able to come through in the clutch to
- 22:23Speaker 1: help take down Dallas, enters off a 130-plus rate game
- 22:26Speaker 1: that saw him toss two TDs without being picked off,
- 22:29Speaker 1: a very healthy 9.3 yards per attempt. Has his go-to
- 22:38Speaker 1: again in Zay Flowers, returned from injury to lead the
- 22:41Speaker 1: team with 84 yards, the only Raven hitting Week 4
- 22:45Speaker 1: off a 40-plus receiving yards game. He also broke off
- 22:54Speaker 1: a 20-yard run versus the Cowboys, offense putting up 34 points,
- 22:58Speaker 1: 4 for 6 inside the 20, a 34-plus point offense,
- 23:02Speaker 1: two of three games so far. Can they keep it
- 23:08Speaker 1: going versus Tennessee's defense? They haven't given up more than
- 23:11Speaker 1: 24 points yet, which is a feat considering the offense
- 23:15Speaker 1: they're working with. Held New York to four field goals
- 23:18Speaker 1: in their Week 3 loss, stopped them on 9-13 third-down tries,
- 23:22Speaker 1: held them to a meager 4.1 yards per play.
- 23:25Speaker 2: Winston, pass deflected and incomplete.
- 23:28Speaker 3: Franklin Myers got a hand on it.
- 23:30Speaker 1: Secondary, Lamar takes on, held Jameis Winston to 118 yards passing,
- 23:33Speaker 1: sub-80 rating. Their DBs didn't give up 41 yards to
- 23:39Speaker 1: a single receiver. Highton's pass rush comes off a three-sack game,
- 23:47Speaker 1: only had 22 attempts to get to him, too. Keldrick
- 23:50Speaker 1: Falk with his first NFL sack, Jeffrey Simmons, his second
- 23:53Speaker 1: of 2026.
- 23:55Speaker 10: Winston, pressure coming again, Jameis in trouble again, and he's
- 23:58Speaker 10: brought down again.
- 24:00Speaker 1: And their rush defense held Cam Scadaboo to three yards
- 24:03Speaker 1: per carry. They handled their business, but to handle it
- 24:07Speaker 1: this week will take an even better showing. They not
- 24:10Speaker 1: only have Lamar's arm to worry about, have to be
- 24:12Speaker 1: able to stop him when he bolts too. He ran
- 24:15Speaker 1: for 50 yards versus Dallas, 8-3 per jaunt.
- 24:18Speaker 10: Lamar shakes off the tackle from behind by.
- 24:21Speaker 3: Quinn and Williams.
- 24:22Speaker 1: And of course, they are dealing with their old mate,
- 24:25Speaker 1: the King, grinded out 89 yards down south, broke on
- 24:28Speaker 1: through to the other side twice at the goal line.
- 24:31Speaker 3: He's going to break outside, and here he goes. Henry's
- 24:34Speaker 3: in again for a Baltimore touchdown.
- 24:37Speaker 1: Henry 3-4 a carry, so hopes for a more efficient
- 24:40Speaker 1: game this week. And Baltimore's defense hoping to leave work
- 24:43Speaker 1: without giving up so many points. 31 allowed to Dallas' offense,
- 24:47Speaker 1: gave up a lot of long passes. Safety Kyle Hamilton
- 24:50Speaker 1: was not pleased with their showing. At the same time,
- 24:59Speaker 1: they're not heading into week four totally rattled. They held
- 25:02Speaker 1: Dallas to five for 13 on third down. stopped them
- 25:05Speaker 1: in the red zone with the game on the line.
- 25:08Speaker 3: Shotgun, Prescott, no one close, nothing there.
- 25:11Speaker 1: A red zone stop they had to make in part
- 25:13Speaker 1: because Madagascar Marty once again sided against them in a
- 25:17Speaker 1: big moment. Didn't realize the Zebra community had such ire
- 25:21Speaker 1: for Ravens. Are Ravens even inhabitants of desert lands? I
- 25:24Speaker 1: don't get it. Either way, Baltimore's secondary did give up
- 25:27Speaker 1: 112 actual yards to CeeDee Lamb. 82 to George Pickens,
- 25:32Speaker 1: over 270 to Dak Prescott. Next-gen stats hit corner Marlon
- 25:37Speaker 1: Humphrey with 108 yards allowed. Humphrey was trying to cover.
- 25:40Speaker 6: Him, but didn't.
- 25:44Speaker 1: So he's looking to bounce back. Lots of DBs have
- 25:47Speaker 1: bounced back versus Cam Ward. He had some decent stretches
- 25:51Speaker 1: in their latest loss. Before his last pass landed in
- 25:54Speaker 1: New York's hands, he had made some good throws to
- 25:56Speaker 1: drive them to get them there. But we're back to
- 26:03Speaker 1: K-Dot again. A few good throws is not enough. He
- 26:06Speaker 1: only averaged five yards per attempt for the game, ended
- 26:09Speaker 1: with 181 yards, hasn't thrown for more than 185 in
- 26:13Speaker 1: a game yet. A new OC and new weapons were
- 26:16Speaker 1: supposed to give life to their passing game and offense,
- 26:19Speaker 1: which only put up a single touchdown versus the Giants.
- 26:22Speaker 1: bad on third down and in the red zone again,
- 26:25Speaker 1: still haven't scored 21 in a game this year.
- 26:28Speaker 11: And that pass is incomplete, intended for Mondale Robinson.
- 26:33Speaker 1: Ward threw 36 times and wasn't sacked once and didn't
- 26:36Speaker 1: face a high pressure rate either. Wandale Robinson scored with
- 26:40Speaker 1: 57 yards, so he comes in off his best game
- 26:42Speaker 1: so far.
- 26:43Speaker 3: Looks right, throws right, and it is caught for a touchdown!
- 26:47Speaker 10: The former Giant, Wandale Robinson!
- 26:50Speaker 1: Harnell Tate had his best game of 2026 with 58 yards.
- 26:54Speaker 8: Ward fires a strike, another Tennessee first down.
- 26:58Speaker 1: Ravens' pass rush had five sacks over their first two games,
- 27:02Speaker 1: only one versus Dallas, not a very high pressure rate,
- 27:05Speaker 1: got Nnamdi Madubike back too, and their front is having
- 27:09Speaker 1: to try and rebound from a rough showing versus the run,
- 27:11Speaker 1: gave up over five yards per carry to Javonte Williams,
- 27:14Speaker 1: 98 yards and a TD. They get Tony Pollard next,
- 27:23Speaker 1: who actually got some play week three. 17 carries, 74 yards,
- 27:27Speaker 1: 4-4 per run. He's hit it 4-4 or better in
- 27:31Speaker 1: each game, too. Robert Sala's clock management and personnel management
- 27:39Speaker 1: need to improve. Special teams has been a bit of
- 27:42Speaker 1: a mess, too. Ravens took nine flags so they could
- 27:45Speaker 1: clean up their act on that front. Or apologize to
- 27:48Speaker 1: the Stripes for whatever it is you did to them.
- 27:51Speaker 1: New England Patriots are headed to Buffalo this week for
- 27:54Speaker 1: a big early season AFC East throwdown. Drake, maybe you
- 27:59Speaker 1: and the offense could make your real 2026 debuts this week.
- 28:03Speaker 1: It would settle some nerves.
- 28:04Speaker 3: It is desperation time. He's picked again.
- 28:06Speaker 12: Rumbling down to the five-yard line.
- 28:11Speaker 1: The Bills, looking to start the year 4-0 for the
- 28:13Speaker 1: second season in a row despite a clunky Week 3,
- 28:17Speaker 1: they're still one of the unbeatens heading into Week 4.
- 28:19Speaker 3: Allen, thinking about running, he's in trouble, gets away!
- 28:22Speaker 13: What a play from Josh Allen!
- 28:25Speaker 1: Hey, when you can win a game turning the ball
- 28:27Speaker 1: over five times, your star quarterback giving it away three
- 28:31Speaker 1: times without throwing a touchdown, and win by eight, life
- 28:35Speaker 1: is pretty good. But still, Mafia members aren't going to
- 28:38Speaker 1: want to see those Nickel City uniforms or helmets again
- 28:42Speaker 1: anytime soon, ready to sell them for a penny. Buffalo's
- 28:45Speaker 1: offense carried the load weeks 1 and 2 with a
- 28:48Speaker 1: sketchy defense along for the ride, but they head into
- 28:51Speaker 1: this week off a game that saw the D take
- 28:53Speaker 1: the wheel with the O riding shotgun. After giving up
- 28:56Speaker 1: 31 points in each of their first two games, Buffalo
- 28:59Speaker 1: held LA to 16. Six for 15 on third down,
- 29:03Speaker 1: one for four in the red zone, while having to
- 29:06Speaker 1: deal with all those turnovers, mind you. D.C. Jim Leonard's
- 29:10Speaker 1: stock up.
- 29:11Speaker 11: And James Cook says, thank you, defense.
- 29:14Speaker 3: You have bailed us out all day long.
- 29:17Speaker 1: Their secondary rolling out after holding Justin Herbert to 6.6
- 29:21Speaker 1: yards per attempt, only one touchdown, while picking him off
- 29:24Speaker 1: for a mid-70s rate. Again, much better than how they
- 29:28Speaker 1: looked the first two weeks.
- 29:30Speaker 13: And now they take on a Drake that looks like
- 29:33Speaker 13: he's been spending too much time with them.
- 29:40Speaker 1: Mr.
- 29:40Speaker 3: Duckworth.
- 29:41Speaker 1: May turned the ball over three times last week. He
- 29:44Speaker 1: has six INTs in three games, at least one in
- 29:47Speaker 1: each game, and they're bad ones, too. Two more last week,
- 29:51Speaker 1: less than 200 yards, sub-50 rate. There is a what-happened-to-May
- 29:56Speaker 1: anxiety growing amid Pats fans.
- 29:58Speaker 3: May rolling right, looking, end zone, picked off!
- 30:03Speaker 1: And how May goes, so goes the offense. Only six
- 30:06Speaker 1: points on two field goals versus Jacksonville. 10 and 20
- 30:10Speaker 1: point showings week 1 and 2. 4 for 12 on
- 30:13Speaker 1: third down, 0 for 3 in the red zone week 3.
- 30:16Speaker 1: If this isn't a turning point, they could find themselves
- 30:18Speaker 1: in a huge hole.
- 30:20Speaker 3: The ball security. May squirted through his hands. Jacksonville's got it.
- 30:25Speaker 1: May has taken three sacks in each game. He didn't
- 30:28Speaker 1: face many Jaguars blitzes and still faced pressure 47% of
- 30:32Speaker 1: his throws. Right tackle Morgan Moses gave up one and
- 30:36Speaker 1: gave up a 20% pressure rate according to NextGenStats. He's
- 30:40Speaker 1: had two rough games versus elite pass rushers. He's given
- 30:43Speaker 1: up two and a half sacks now on the year.
- 30:45Speaker 3: They buried it. My goodness. The floodgates are open.
- 30:50Speaker 1: That could be problematic because Gregory Rousseau moves around and
- 30:53Speaker 1: he spends more time in front of right tackles, too.
- 30:56Speaker 1: And he has started 2026 on a major sack bender,
- 31:00Speaker 1: two per game with three forced fumbles.
- 31:03Speaker 3: In trouble and sacked.
- 31:05Speaker 13: Big-time pass rush that time, and it's Greg Rousseau.
- 31:09Speaker 1: Buffalo cornerback Dee Alford gave up a team-high 67 yards
- 31:12Speaker 1: last week, a touchdown allowed the week before. The team
- 31:16Speaker 1: gave up 66 yards to Ladd McConkie, 76 to Trey Harris.
- 31:20Speaker 1: Now on to DeMario Douglas, one catch, 38 yards a
- 31:24Speaker 1: week ago. Mack Hollins has been their best wideout this season,
- 31:27Speaker 1: 87 yards last week.
- 31:29Speaker 3: Rolls out on a third-down pass. They're going to rule.
- 31:33Speaker 3: I think he got it.
- 31:35Speaker 1: Romeo Dobbs went for 49.
- 31:37Speaker 3: First down pass. That pass is complete. Dobbs has been quiet.
- 31:42Speaker 1: Not much action from their backs in that loss to
- 31:45Speaker 1: Jacksonville either. Travion Henderson and Ramondre Stevenson both fewer than
- 31:49Speaker 1: 25 yards, under 3-2 a carry. Everybody, for the most part,
- 31:54Speaker 1: on that offense needing a get-right game this week. Stopping
- 31:57Speaker 1: the run wasn't a Bill's strength versus L.A. I mean,
- 32:00Speaker 1: they held O'Marion Hampton to 3-7 per run. And he
- 32:03Speaker 1: was their RB1. But they had trouble with Keaton Mitchell.
- 32:07Speaker 1: They gave up over 130 rush yards on 4-7 to
- 32:10Speaker 1: carry overall.
- 32:11Speaker 3: Nothing on the left side.
- 32:12Speaker 11: They run a little crack play where they crack the end.
- 32:15Speaker 11: Bounces off Keaton Mitchell.
- 32:17Speaker 1: Their own offense's rush game, a different story. The cook
- 32:20Speaker 1: in the kitchen is heating things up. James did lose
- 32:23Speaker 1: a fumble. Made up for it with 154 yards and
- 32:25Speaker 1: a touchdown on 6-4 to carry overall. 135-plus yards and
- 32:31Speaker 1: a score back-to-back games.
- 32:33Speaker 3: Here is Cook, right up the middle. It's James Cook,
- 32:37Speaker 3: so speedy.
- 32:38Speaker 1: He propelled the offense to his 24 points for the
- 32:41Speaker 1: most part. He set up Allen's two goal-line Josh sneaks.
- 32:45Speaker 1: It's as unstoppable as a tush push, I tell you.
- 32:48Speaker 1: That's two in each game for him down low.
- 32:50Speaker 3: Allen's just going to sneak himself. He's in! Touchdown, Buffalo!
- 32:55Speaker 1: Bell's offense was fine on third down, for the most part,
- 32:58Speaker 1: and in the red zone. Just have to ban the
- 33:00Speaker 1: chili peppers from pregame warm-ups versus New England. Allen gave
- 33:04Speaker 1: it away now on a fumble loss and two picks.
- 33:14Speaker 1: He will try and get back on track versus a
- 33:16Speaker 1: New England defense that looked good weeks one and two,
- 33:19Speaker 1: then gave up three touchdowns to Trevor Lawrence, gave up
- 33:22Speaker 1: 35 points to Jacksonville, eight for 12 on third down,
- 33:25Speaker 1: allowed them to convert all five of their red zone trips.
- 33:29Speaker 12: On second and 10, Lawrence over the middle, caught for
- 33:32Speaker 12: the Jacksonville touchdown.
- 33:34Speaker 1: Marcus Jones did pick Lawrence off. They held him to
- 33:38Speaker 1: 182 yards, but they only sacked him once on 29
- 33:41Speaker 1: pass attempts, blitzed him over 50% of the time, and
- 33:44Speaker 1: only pressured him on 31% of his throws, so their
- 33:47Speaker 1: pass rush needs fixing too.
- 33:53Speaker 3: That's on the pass rush, and they just haven't been
- 33:55Speaker 3: able to get there.
- 33:56Speaker 1: Allen took four sacks a week ago, only 26 pass attempts, too.
- 34:00Speaker 1: Left tackle Deion Dawkins, right tackle Spencer Brown, and center
- 34:04Speaker 1: Connor McGovern, all with a sack allowed, according to NGS.
- 34:12Speaker 1: When Allen lets it fly, Khalil Shakir, only six yards
- 34:16Speaker 1: versus the Chargers, Keon Coleman hauled in a 37-yarder. Dalton
- 34:20Speaker 1: Kincaid cooled off to 38 yards and a lost fumble.
- 34:24Speaker 1: Ty Johnson had that huge 29-yard reception out of the backfield,
- 34:27Speaker 1: 50 yards.
- 34:29Speaker 11: He's got three receivers here. He's got the tight end
- 34:31Speaker 11: coming across. And Allen escapes to the right, and there's
- 34:33Speaker 11: Ty Johnson.
- 34:34Speaker 1: And they got D.J. Moore back. He led them with
- 34:37Speaker 1: 67 yards, saw 10 targets. Nobody else had five. Pats
- 34:47Speaker 1: only let one Jaguar go for more than 40 yards,
- 34:50Speaker 1: 64 yards and a TD allowed to Jacoby Myers. None
- 34:53Speaker 1: of their DBs gave up even 35.
- 34:55Speaker 3: Yards, though.
- 34:56Speaker 1: But the front Cook draws gave up 37 yards on
- 34:59Speaker 1: 4-6 to carry to Chris Rodriguez and a touchdown. 73
- 35:04Speaker 1: yards on 4-9 per and a TD to Bashaw Tootin.
- 35:12Speaker 1: Pats took nine penalties last week. Bills took 10, so
- 35:16Speaker 1: both teams hoping for less yellow this week. It's the
- 35:20Speaker 1: Battle of Texas. Houston at home have the league right
- 35:23Speaker 1: where they want them. 0-3 the magic numbers if you're
- 35:26Speaker 1: a Texan.
- 35:27Speaker 2: And it is incomplete and the Colts have hung on.
- 35:32Speaker 1: The last two 0-3 teams to make the playoffs, the Texans.
- 35:35Speaker 1: I know, having Alice in Chains down in a hole,
- 35:38Speaker 1: be the soundtrack to the start of your seasons, is
- 35:41Speaker 1: getting old. But star fans feel the same way about
- 35:43Speaker 1: their defense. They return from Rio 1-2, once again trying
- 35:48Speaker 1: to shed the Alice Cowboys' label.
- 35:50Speaker 14: For the victory from 56 yards.
- 35:53Speaker 3: Oh my goodness! It's good!
- 35:56Speaker 1: This game pits a questionable defense against a questionable offense,
- 36:00Speaker 1: along with an O and a D that usually have
- 36:03Speaker 1: all the answers. But man, America's team's fans are once
- 36:07Speaker 1: again asking if they've been duped again. How in the
- 36:10Speaker 1: world did they give up that long pass to allow
- 36:13Speaker 1: that field goal to be kicked? They gave up 34
- 36:16Speaker 1: points to Baltimore, let them go four for six in
- 36:18Speaker 1: the red zone. didn't come up with a single sack,
- 36:22Speaker 1: only have two this year, allowed over nine yards per
- 36:25Speaker 1: attempt to Lamar Jackson, two TDs for a 130-plus rating.
- 36:29Speaker 3: Look in the end zone, flick it, caught! Caught for
- 36:33Speaker 3: the touchdown!
- 36:34Speaker 1: Dallas has allowed 28-plus points in two of three games now,
- 36:38Speaker 1: but it wasn't all bad Week 3. They have some
- 36:41Speaker 1: positives they're working off of. They held Lamar to 186
- 36:45Speaker 1: passing yards, they held Derrick Henry to 3.4 a run,
- 36:49Speaker 1: baltimore's offense to three for nine on third.
- 36:51Speaker 8: Down lamar throws it outside and oh and off the
- 36:55Speaker 8: hands of flowers.
- 36:57Speaker 1: But their rush defense overall struggled again henry punched in
- 37:01Speaker 1: two against them they gave up 50 yards to jackson
- 37:04Speaker 1: down low eight three a carry let zay flowers get
- 37:08Speaker 1: him for a 20 yard run and gave up six
- 37:10Speaker 1: six an attempt to justice hill That's 180-plus rush yards
- 37:14Speaker 1: allowed back-to-back weeks, 165-plus in each game so far.
- 37:19Speaker 3: Here is Henry, going to break outside, and here he goes!
- 37:23Speaker 3: Henry's in again!
- 37:25Speaker 1: Sets up a Cartman-Kyle-like slap fight, Houston's rush attack has
- 37:29Speaker 1: been almost non-existent through three games. 70 yards last week?
- 37:33Speaker 1: David Montgomery better not need Jameer Gibbs to be effective.
- 37:37Speaker 1: 33 yards on three a carry versus Indianapolis hasn't topped
- 37:40Speaker 1: three a carry yet.
- 37:42Speaker 3: C.J.
- 37:42Speaker 1: Stroud had some good late throws to put them ahead
- 37:45Speaker 1: last week, but just 167 yards passing, the offense only
- 37:49Speaker 1: 17 points. Four for 11 on third down, fewer than
- 37:53Speaker 1: 18 points now in back-to-back games. Their O.C. is starting
- 37:57Speaker 1: to find himself in the crosshairs of Houston's fans. only
- 38:00Speaker 1: 4.4 yards per play.
- 38:02Speaker 2: Off the play fake, Stroud looking to the middle of
- 38:04Speaker 2: the field, passes, incomplete.
- 38:07Speaker 1: A Cowboys pass rush coming off a zero sack game
- 38:10Speaker 1: against a Texans O-line that allowed Stroud to get dumped
- 38:13Speaker 1: three times on 27 pass attempts. Next-gen stats had right
- 38:17Speaker 1: guard Wyatt Teller with one and a half sacks allowed,
- 38:20Speaker 1: left guard Keelan Rutledge with one, right tackle Trent Brown
- 38:24Speaker 1: with one, Brown and Rutledge with sacks allowed in back-to-back games.
- 38:28Speaker 1: Stroud has taken three-plus sacks now in three straight.
- 38:31Speaker 7: We talked about the interior of this offensive line being
- 38:35Speaker 7: the weak spot.
- 38:36Speaker 1: Now, Stroud only faced pressure 22% of the time last week.
- 38:39Speaker 1: That's a pretty low pressure rate. Wasn't able to use
- 38:42Speaker 1: the time he had to generate much, though. They really
- 38:46Speaker 1: need Nico Collins back. Only guy last week with more
- 38:49Speaker 1: than 30 yards, Xavier Hutchinson with 51.
- 38:51Speaker 3: Stroud. Looking, stepping up, throwing to the back of the
- 38:55Speaker 3: end zone, and it's incomplete.
- 38:57Speaker 1: It was another wasted outing from their defense, who will
- 39:00Speaker 1: really get tested this week. They held Indianapolis to 19 points.
- 39:04Speaker 1: That's fewer than 21 points back-to-back weeks. They took the
- 39:07Speaker 1: ball away three times week three, held the Colts to
- 39:11Speaker 1: a lowly 4.2 yards per play.
- 39:13Speaker 3: He's in trouble. He fumbled the football! It's loose on
- 39:16Speaker 3: the field! Anderson knocked it away!
- 39:19Speaker 1: Their secondary held Danny Dimes to a low 80s rate
- 39:22Speaker 1: by picking him off only one TD allowed. That pass
- 39:25Speaker 1: rush is still very real. Caused two fumble recoveries on
- 39:29Speaker 1: two of their fours. sacks of Jones. What else do
- 39:31Speaker 1: you need from Will Anderson? Backed Jones two and a
- 39:34Speaker 1: half times. has been in on a sack in every game.
- 39:37Speaker 1: Houston pressured Jones 46% of the time, while only blitzing 26%
- 39:42Speaker 1: of the time.
- 39:43Speaker 2: And Jones looking that way, just throws it up for
- 39:45Speaker 2: grabs for downs, and it's picked off by Blankenship.
- 39:47Speaker 1: Now Anderson goes DAC hunting. Prescott only took one sack
- 39:51Speaker 1: versus Baltimore, and he threw 40 times. He was blitzed
- 39:55Speaker 1: at a fairly high clip, too. Below average pressure rate faced,
- 39:59Speaker 1: piled up 276 yards.
- 39:59Speaker 3: A touchdown, no picks.
- 40:02Speaker 10: Get Jake Ferguson out into a dead spot, and Dak
- 40:06Speaker 10: knows exactly where he's going with that football.
- 40:08Speaker 1: Houston's D versus a Dallas O that hit Baltimore with 31,
- 40:13Speaker 1: 37 the week before.
- 40:14Speaker 3: Can they get it to three? There's the pass, and
- 40:17Speaker 3: it is caught. Great job grabbing that.
- 40:20Speaker 1: Need to be better on third down, five for 13
- 40:22Speaker 1: week three. Three for five in the red zone, but
- 40:24Speaker 1: many fans not happy with the play calling inside the 20s.
- 40:28Speaker 1: On their last drive, tight end Jake Ferguson has a
- 40:31Speaker 1: two-game scoring streak after finding the end zone once, only
- 40:34Speaker 1: 23 yards, and he lost a fumble. George Pickens with
- 40:38Speaker 1: 82 yards, most he's had over three games.
- 40:41Speaker 10: Watch George Pickens come back down to attack this ball.
- 40:45Speaker 1: It helps your quarterback out so much. CeeDee Lamb with 112,
- 40:48Speaker 1: that's back-to-back 100-plus yard games for him.
- 40:51Speaker 9: One-on-one for C.D.
- 40:52Speaker 3: Lamb, and he is gone.
- 40:54Speaker 9: That one was 88 and out the gate.
- 40:56Speaker 1: Texans secondary give up 63 yards to Keenan Allen, 77
- 41:00Speaker 1: to Josh Downs, no single guy on the hook for
- 41:03Speaker 1: many yards, and their front kept Jonathan Taylor to just
- 41:06Speaker 1: three yards per carry, so coming in strong down.
- 41:09Speaker 3: Low, too.
- 41:09Speaker 2: Petrie coming in, showing blitz. They give it to Taylor.
- 41:12Speaker 2: Taylor trying to run away from the defense.
- 41:13Speaker 3: He cannot.
- 41:14Speaker 1: They get Javante Williams next, who hits week four off
- 41:17Speaker 1: his best game of 2026, 98 yards, 5.2 a pop,
- 41:22Speaker 1: one score.
- 41:22Speaker 3: I wonder if they'll go with Williams this time. Here
- 41:24Speaker 3: he is. I guess yes.
- 41:26Speaker 15: Williams straight ahead.
- 41:28Speaker 1: This game should have top week four billing. Shame it's
- 41:31Speaker 1: not in a primetime slot. Denver Broncos head west to
- 41:35Speaker 1: the bay off a thrilling win over another NFC West superpower.
- 41:39Speaker 3: Stafford fires end zone. Hufanga holds on. Intercepted. The Broncos win.
- 41:46Speaker 1: From the Rams to the 49ers who are feeling awfully
- 41:50Speaker 1: good about that offense of theirs. which they hope propels
- 41:53Speaker 1: them to a 4-0 start.
- 41:54Speaker 3: Oh, what a flip! Mike Evans to Debo! Samuel breaks
- 41:58Speaker 3: a tackle! And Samuel on the run! Razzle dazzle touchdown!
- 42:03Speaker 1: In last week's 49er preview, I think the top comment
- 42:06Speaker 1: to get the most thumbs up was, please let us
- 42:09Speaker 1: get out with a win and no injuries. Well, one
- 42:12Speaker 1: of the two wishes was granted. Lost Mike Evans to
- 42:15Speaker 1: a rib injury, waiting to see what it means, but
- 42:18Speaker 1: the Niners are used to half their lineup hanging with
- 42:20Speaker 1: Hawkeye and Pierce, They forged ahead without him and still
- 42:24Speaker 1: went for 36 points, 35-plus points back-to-back games, 27-plus in
- 42:29Speaker 1: all three so far.
- 42:30Speaker 3: Kittle diving into the end zone for the touchdown.
- 42:33Speaker 1: Five for eight on third down, two for two in
- 42:36Speaker 1: the red zone. Gaudy, 8.7 yards per play. Brock Purdy
- 42:40Speaker 1: playing at an MVP caliber level, 11 yards per attempt
- 42:44Speaker 1: last week, 297 yards and four TDs, rate over 130.
- 42:50Speaker 8: Down the sideline, Evans in the end zone. It's Mike
- 42:53Speaker 8: Evans with the touchdown.
- 42:56Speaker 1: BCB with nine TDs in his first three games. Now
- 42:59Speaker 1: he gets to see what he's made of versus that
- 43:01Speaker 1: Denver secondary, one that picked off Matthew Stafford twice, holding
- 43:05Speaker 1: him to a mid-70s rate. a week after shutting down
- 43:08Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence, who's looked good except when he played them.
- 43:12Speaker 3: Stafford Tillman pressures. Stafford's throw incomplete.
- 43:15Speaker 1: Now, they did give up 390 yards to Stafford, 137
- 43:17Speaker 1: to Devontae Adams, 93 to Kanata Mumfield. Next-gen stats hit
- 43:24Speaker 1: Patrick Sertan with 96 yards allowed, but keep in mind
- 43:28Speaker 1: he faced 11 targets too, six catches allowed, five incompletions.
- 43:33Speaker 1: Corner Riley Moss, 98 yards allowed and two TDs. Denver
- 43:37Speaker 1: may have given up 26 points, but they held to
- 43:40Speaker 1: one for four in the red zone. In Talanoa, Hufunga
- 43:43Speaker 1: had two interceptions, the first of the house call variety.
- 43:47Speaker 3: Hufunga!
- 43:48Speaker 16: Stafford's got an angle, Hufunga back inside, stays on his feet,
- 43:52Speaker 16: and he will score!
- 43:55Speaker 1: Trenches are going to be key. Denver sacked Stafford four times,
- 43:58Speaker 1: had 55 chances. Hufunga also got in on that action,
- 44:02Speaker 1: as did Nick Bonito and Zach Allen, who now has
- 44:06Speaker 1: three for the year.
- 44:07Speaker 16: Pressure off the edge, thwarted, but inside they come against Stafford.
- 44:11Speaker 3: Zach Allen.
- 44:12Speaker 1: Can they get to Purdy? He hasn't taken a single
- 44:15Speaker 1: sack yet. faced pressure a piddly 14% of the time
- 44:19Speaker 1: versus Arizona.
- 44:20Speaker 3: Purdy, McCaffrey, first down.
- 44:23Speaker 1: Evans caught a TD before leaving the game. He's been
- 44:26Speaker 1: big in the red zone and on third down. They
- 44:28Speaker 1: still have George Kittle, though. He looks like he's back
- 44:31Speaker 1: in all-pro form. Two touchdowns a week ago with 82 yards,
- 44:35Speaker 1: has scored with 80-plus yards two games in a row.
- 44:37Speaker 3: Play action. Purdy on the roll. Floats it for Kittle!
- 44:42Speaker 8: And Kittle in for his second touchdown of the day!
- 44:46Speaker 1: Debo looms. How about not catching a single pass, but
- 44:50Speaker 1: going for 80 receiving yards and a TD? One of
- 44:53Speaker 1: the coolest stat lines you'll ever see.
- 44:56Speaker 8: The completion to Mike Evans. The pitch to Debo, who
- 45:01Speaker 8: did the rest.
- 45:02Speaker 1: Say hello to Jordan Watkins. Two catches, 60 yards last week.
- 45:06Speaker 3: Open is Watkins.
- 45:07Speaker 8: Down the sideline and close to field goal range.
- 45:11Speaker 1: And Denver cannot lose track of CMC just because they
- 45:14Speaker 1: don't hand him the ball. 41 receiving yards.
- 45:17Speaker 8: It's McCaffrey at the 15, bouncing off contact, and McCaffrey
- 45:20Speaker 8: first and goal.
- 45:22Speaker 1: McCaffrey, also adding 75 rush yards at a 5 per clip,
- 45:26Speaker 1: scored again, has found his way to the zone in
- 45:28Speaker 1: his last two.
- 45:29Speaker 8: It's McCaffrey going up top, tumbling down for the touchdown.
- 45:34Speaker 1: Denver didn't play the run great versus L.A., gave up
- 45:36Speaker 1: a 30-yard run to Kyron Williams, 88 yards on 5-9
- 45:40Speaker 1: to carry when it was over. They've allowed 5-1 per
- 45:43Speaker 1: attempt over three games. Only two teams have been more generous.
- 45:47Speaker 6: Big run by Williams as he cuts back.
- 45:49Speaker 1: Broncos offense still looking to leave a shift accounting for
- 45:53Speaker 1: 24 points, that respectable mark, if you will, 23 last week.
- 45:57Speaker 1: But they at least went three for three in the
- 45:59Speaker 1: red zone, seven for 13 on third down.
- 46:02Speaker 3: And it comes all the way to the right.
- 46:03Speaker 15: That means his brain is functioning the way it's trained
- 46:07Speaker 15: to function.
- 46:08Speaker 1: But 4.3 yards per play is no bueno. Bo Nix
- 46:12Speaker 1: has been picked off in each game, only averaged 5.5
- 46:16Speaker 1: yards per attempt versus L.A., 186 through the air for
- 46:19Speaker 1: a low 70s rate.
- 46:21Speaker 3: This throw's intercepted!
- 46:23Speaker 10: So the pressure came from Kobe Turner!
- 46:25Speaker 1: He did throw for a couple of TDs at least,
- 46:27Speaker 1: played better in the second half last week to get
- 46:30Speaker 1: them back in the game, and ran in the game-winning score,
- 46:33Speaker 1: so he's hoping to carry over that late-game momentum into
- 46:36Speaker 1: this week. He could very well do that if San
- 46:38Speaker 1: Francisco's defense doesn't figure some things out. They gave up
- 46:41Speaker 1: 30 points to Arizona, got burned a lot in the
- 46:44Speaker 1: second half, let the Cards convert 9 of 18 third
- 46:47Speaker 1: downs and 3 of their 5 red zone chances.
- 46:50Speaker 8: It's Wilson to the goal line. He's in for an
- 46:53Speaker 8: Arizona touchdown.
- 46:55Speaker 1: Nix takes on a secondary that gave up 280 yards
- 46:58Speaker 1: and 2 TDs to Jacoby Brissett.
- 47:00Speaker 3: Love with the catch and the touchdown.
- 47:04Speaker 1: Now for the Sir Mix-a-Lot Big Butt. They played the
- 47:07Speaker 1: pass well weeks one and two, and held their opponents
- 47:10Speaker 1: to fewer than 14 points. One of those opponents, Matthew
- 47:13Speaker 1: Stafford and his Rams, but maybe Nick Bosa is that important?
- 47:17Speaker 1: No argument here. They only found their way to Brissette
- 47:20Speaker 1: twice on 52 pass attempts, only pressured him 24% of
- 47:24Speaker 1: the time. Nick's meantime only took one sack on 34
- 47:28Speaker 1: pass attempts, didn't take any their previous game either.
- 47:31Speaker 3: Throwing wide open, Troy Franklin!
- 47:34Speaker 1: Didn't face a high pressure rate versus L.A., just needs
- 47:37Speaker 1: to use that protection to complete more passes and longer ones.
- 47:41Speaker 1: 49er secondary gave up 75 yards to tight end Trey McBride,
- 47:45Speaker 1: 89 yards and a TD to Michael Wilson. Now on
- 47:49Speaker 1: to Jalen Waddell, only 10 yards versus the Rams, seven
- 47:52Speaker 1: targets too. Cortland Sutton led the team with 46 yards.
- 47:56Speaker 3: Sideline toss is caught.
- 47:58Speaker 16: The flag is well.
- 48:00Speaker 3: Cortland Sutton brings it in.
- 48:01Speaker 1: Pat Bryant with 44 yards.
- 48:03Speaker 15: Chasing Pat Bryant across the field and just slams into
- 48:08Speaker 15: his own teammates.
- 48:09Speaker 1: RJ Harvey with 41 receiving yards.
- 48:12Speaker 3: Out of the backfield, Harvey with space, first down Denver.
- 48:15Speaker 1: He didn't do much as a runner, neither did J.K. Dobbins,
- 48:18Speaker 1: 49 yards under three yards per carry. San Francisco gave
- 48:22Speaker 1: up four three a carry to Jeremiah Love, 90 yards.
- 48:26Speaker 1: It's the Battle of the Bays, Tampa Bay limping into
- 48:29Speaker 1: this one, and it's not biscuit style. 0-3 and now
- 48:33Speaker 1: have to go without Baker for a few weeks.
- 48:35Speaker 10: Instead of pumping and using the timeouts, Rayfield under pressure
- 48:39Speaker 10: from Wilson, still on his feet, now he throws.
- 48:44Speaker 1: Green 1 on the road, the cutaways of Packer fans
- 48:47Speaker 1: throughout the second half of last week combined with the
- 48:50Speaker 1: chorus of boos. they unleashed on the team as it
- 48:52Speaker 1: walked off the field, tells you everything you need to
- 48:56Speaker 1: know as it pertains to where this team is at
- 48:58Speaker 1: ahead of week four.
- 48:59Speaker 17: They'll throw it and they will, and that pass is
- 49:03Speaker 17: out of the back of the end zone.
- 49:06Speaker 1: Jalen Daniels, hoping Green Bay's defense treats all NFC South
- 49:10Speaker 1: quarterbacks the same, because after picking off Michael Penix early
- 49:13Speaker 1: last week, they sat back and let him have his way,
- 49:16Speaker 1: gave up over 250 yards on over 10 yards per attempt,
- 49:20Speaker 1: to him. Rate allowed over 100. didn't give up a
- 49:23Speaker 1: lot of passing yards the first two weeks, so coming
- 49:25Speaker 1: off their worst showing versus the pass so far.
- 49:28Speaker 17: Pass rush enters off a zero-sack effort, too. Blitzed 40%
- 49:32Speaker 17: of the time, piddly 20% pressure rate. Defense gave up
- 49:35Speaker 17: close to 500 yards.
- 49:48Speaker 1: Let Atlanta in on four of five red zone trips,
- 49:50Speaker 1: six for 10 on third down, 35 points. So the
- 49:53Speaker 1: Bucs looking at a team that's allowed 35 plus in
- 49:56Speaker 1: two of three games now.
- 49:58Speaker 3: Into the end zone, Robinson for the touchdown.
- 50:02Speaker 1: Packers secondary gave up 194 yards to Drake London last Thursday.
- 50:07Speaker 1: Corner Keyshawn Nixon allowed 55 yards, according to NGS. He's
- 50:11Speaker 1: had rough games two weeks in a row. Cornerback Brandon
- 50:14Speaker 1: Cisse gave up touchdowns weeks one and two. then gave
- 50:17Speaker 1: up 106 yards last week, plus got hit with a
- 50:21Speaker 1: costly penalty.
- 50:22Speaker 2: Rookie against rookie, Georgia against South Carolina, very physical, ball.
- 50:26Speaker 3: Hadn't even gone up into the air, never really gave
- 50:29Speaker 3: Branch a chance to.
- 50:30Speaker 1: Now they try and correct things against a backup quarterback, Daniels,
- 50:34Speaker 1: undrafted rookie out of Kansas.
- 50:36Speaker 10: Daniels steps up, and now he fires downfield.
- 50:40Speaker 1: But even before Baker left the game, it was a
- 50:43Speaker 1: Bucs offense that went 2 for 17 on 3rd down,
- 50:47Speaker 1: didn't even average four yards per play, only 16 points.
- 50:51Speaker 1: They haven't accounted for 21 points two games in a
- 50:54Speaker 1: row now.
- 50:55Speaker 3: He winds up getting forced out of bounds.
- 50:58Speaker 1: Green Bay's donut pass rush going after a Bucs O-line
- 51:01Speaker 1: that gave up six sacks to Minnesota's pass rushers.
- 51:04Speaker 10: Looking in third downs, tries to spin out of trouble,
- 51:08Speaker 10: running for it.
- 51:09Speaker 3: And he is out. Thrown to the turf.
- 51:12Speaker 1: There is a catch. Only one and a half blamed
- 51:14Speaker 1: on their linemen. Baker trying to extend plays played a
- 51:17Speaker 1: big role. Daniels pass catchers. Chris Godwin only 25 yards
- 51:22Speaker 1: versus Minnesota. Jalen McMillan, none. Ted Hurst hauled in a
- 51:26Speaker 1: 40-yard TD.
- 51:27Speaker 10: Now Mayfield finds a wide-open Ted Hurst for a Buccaneers touchdown.
- 51:34Speaker 1: Cade Otten hit for 56 yards.
- 51:37Speaker 3: Over the top of Eric Wilson. Cade Otten there getting
- 51:39Speaker 3: him involved.
- 51:40Speaker 1: And Emeka Ibuka led the team with 62.
- 51:43Speaker 10: Fake to Bucky Irving, and the pass is caught for
- 51:46Speaker 10: a first down.
- 51:47Speaker 1: Bucky Irving hoping to find more room this week, only
- 51:50Speaker 1: 46 yards on 3-1 a carry. Maybe he should tape
- 51:53Speaker 1: Robinson over the top of Irving on the back of
- 51:56Speaker 1: his jersey. Packers apparently don't know how to stop B-robs.
- 51:59Speaker 1: Gave up 50 yards on 5 yards per carry to
- 52:02Speaker 1: Brian Robinson, who found the zone against them. Gave up
- 52:05Speaker 1: 194 yards to Bijon on 6-7 a carry. two TDs.
- 52:10Speaker 18: Green Bay's offense, akin to moldy cheese right now, they
- 52:22Speaker 18: have almost zero run game, fewer than 70 yards the
- 52:26Speaker 18: first two weeks, then basically abandoned it versus Atlanta, only
- 52:30Speaker 18: handing off eight times.
- 52:31Speaker 1: Marshawn Lloyd and Caleb Johnson combined for 17 yards. Pack's
- 52:36Speaker 1: offense started the season off with 22 points, but followed
- 52:39Speaker 1: it with 20, then left work with 14 a week ago.
- 52:42Speaker 3: 49 at Minnesota. This one's blocked.
- 52:45Speaker 19: Zach Harrison just brought up he is 6'5, and then
- 52:49Speaker 19: just elevates.
- 52:49Speaker 1: Jordan Love put up over 300 yards versus Atlanta. Second
- 52:53Speaker 1: time in three games he's gone for three-plus bills. Two TDs,
- 52:57Speaker 1: which he's thrown for in all three games.
- 52:58Speaker 17: Throwing, caught. Christian Watson for the touchdown. Lambeau Leafs.
- 53:06Speaker 1: But Love threw 53 times last week. Mid-70s rate on
- 53:10Speaker 1: the back of finishing under six yards per attempt with
- 53:13Speaker 1: an INT had little Wayne pointing out Miami quarterback Darian
- 53:17Speaker 1: Mensah would look good in green after the game. But
- 53:19Speaker 1: not everybody agrees with Weezy. They point to the lack
- 53:22Speaker 1: of run game and a makeshift O-line. We all know
- 53:25Speaker 1: Love needs time. Nobody likes a minute man. Only taking
- 53:28Speaker 1: one sack on 50-plus pass attempts is remarkable, but he
- 53:32Speaker 1: was pressured over 40% of the time by a pass
- 53:35Speaker 1: rush missing its best two guys and who barely blitzed him.
- 53:39Speaker 1: Guards Jager Burton and Jacob Monk allowed seven and eight
- 53:42Speaker 1: pressures each with a 14% pressure rate, which is not
- 53:45Speaker 1: good for that position.
- 53:46Speaker 3: Love. Deep.
- 53:48Speaker 10: Whoa.
- 53:49Speaker 17: No connection there. It's golden. Wasn't even looking that way.
- 53:53Speaker 1: The Bucs defense they throw down with this week did
- 53:56Speaker 1: everything they could to keep them in it last week.
- 53:58Speaker 1: Holding a team to 23 when your offense goes 2-for-17
- 54:02Speaker 1: on third down is better than it looks. And they
- 54:04Speaker 1: were missing Josiah Trotter and Reuben Bain. They held Minnesota
- 54:09Speaker 1: to 2-for-15 on third down. Didn't allow them inside the
- 54:12Speaker 1: 20 once. Held them to 4-2 per play.
- 54:16Speaker 3: Scrambling. Down he goes. What a flag.
- 54:21Speaker 1: Watson, Golden, Love get a Buccaneers secondary that held Kyler
- 54:25Speaker 1: Murray to 168 yards, under six yards per attempt. Picked
- 54:29Speaker 1: him off for a sub-70 rate.
- 54:32Speaker 10: Pass gets batted back on third down and intercepted.
- 54:37Speaker 1: It was their best game against the pass thus far.
- 54:40Speaker 1: Didn't have to deal with the full game of JJ.
- 54:43Speaker 1: Held everybody but Jordan Addison under 35 yards, though. gave
- 54:47Speaker 1: up 90 yards to Addison and a TD. Next-gen stats
- 54:50Speaker 1: placing the blame for the score on corner Jacob Parrish,
- 54:53Speaker 1: along with 77 yards allowed.
- 54:56Speaker 3: Third down and eight. Murray going deep. What an adjustment!
- 55:01Speaker 9: Wow!
- 55:02Speaker 3: Into the end zone, touchdown Addison!
- 55:04Speaker 1: Tight end Tucker Kraft, only 26 yards, and did not
- 55:07Speaker 1: win over fans when he criticized their boos after. Matthew Golden,
- 55:11Speaker 1: starting to look like the first rounder he was supposed
- 55:13Speaker 1: to be, 100 yards and a TD. 95 plus yards
- 55:17Speaker 1: in two or three games.
- 55:19Speaker 17: That pass is caught. Golden into the end zone he goes.
- 55:25Speaker 1: Christian Watson looking to make it four straight good games
- 55:28Speaker 1: to start the year. 96 yards, so has 96 plus
- 55:31Speaker 1: in two or three games. He scored for the third
- 55:34Speaker 1: straight time.
- 55:34Speaker 3: Defense, watch Hughes, 21. Watch his movement inside. Just enough.
- 55:39Speaker 3: Now look at the communication with he and Bates.
- 55:41Speaker 1: Loves looking at a Tampa pass rush that gobbled up
- 55:43Speaker 1: Murray three times on 29 pass attempts. He should expect
- 55:47Speaker 1: to be blitzed a lot. They sent five-plus after Kyler
- 55:50Speaker 1: over 40% of the time.
- 55:51Speaker 10: Third down, and he is taken down back at the
- 55:56Speaker 10: 10-yard line.
- 55:56Speaker 3: That's David Walker. We talked about him earlier.
- 55:59Speaker 1: Should Green Bay try to run more, they'd be running
- 56:01Speaker 1: into a front that held Aaron Jones to 3-4 a carry,
- 56:05Speaker 1: have held the last two teams faced to fewer than
- 56:07Speaker 1: 80 total rush yards. Cincinnati Bengals at home week four
- 56:12Speaker 1: looking to rebound from their first loss of the year,
- 56:15Speaker 1: a loss that felt a lot like the kind they've
- 56:18Speaker 1: taken the last few seasons.
- 56:20Speaker 4: It's a battle of two and ones as the Jaguars
- 56:21Speaker 4: are in town to take on an orange team for
- 56:24Speaker 4: the third time in four games. Jacksonville blazing in off
- 56:28Speaker 4: another dominant win.
- 56:40Speaker 3: Designed run for Lawrence. Lawrence breaking tackles.
- 56:44Speaker 12: Going to try to stay out of the end zone
- 56:47Speaker 12: and continue to run that clock.
- 56:49Speaker 1: Man, weeks one and three, the Jags have looked the
- 56:51Speaker 1: part of Super Bowl contender. Week two, not so much.
- 56:54Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence, rolling, rolling, rolling, in off a three TD game,
- 56:58Speaker 1: has thrown for three plus, two of three games now,
- 57:00Speaker 1: 100 plus rating and two of three.
- 57:03Speaker 12: Take away on second and ten. Lawrence over the middle.
- 57:05Speaker 12: Caught for the Jacksonville touchdown. It's Josh Cameron.
- 57:09Speaker 1: He only went for 182 yards, only one pass play
- 57:13Speaker 1: went for 20-plus yards, so they are hoping for more
- 57:15Speaker 1: pop this week. Still, 35 points of offense, so 34-plus
- 57:20Speaker 1: and two of three, nice eight of 12 on third
- 57:22Speaker 1: down last week, perfect five for five in the red zone,
- 57:26Speaker 1: all against a Pats defense that had played tough the
- 57:29Speaker 1: first two games.
- 57:30Speaker 3: Patriots bring in four. Pump fake in end zone. Caught.
- 57:34Speaker 3: Jacoby Myers. Touchdown.
- 57:38Speaker 1: Now they try and keep it going against a Bengals
- 57:40Speaker 1: defense that looked great Weeks 1 and 2, then went
- 57:43Speaker 1: back to 2025 Bengals defense Week 3, sort of, gave
- 57:47Speaker 1: up 30 points to Pittsburgh, over 400 yards of offense.
- 57:51Speaker 3: Looking. Wide open. Touchdown to Metcalf.
- 57:55Speaker 1: The asterisk for some is their special teams. they gave
- 57:58Speaker 1: up 100 yards on kickoff returns, set up a lot
- 58:01Speaker 1: of short fields. Still, this game will be very telling
- 58:04Speaker 1: as to whether Weeks 1 and 2 are who they are,
- 58:07Speaker 1: or if they're who some thought they were, a la
- 58:10Speaker 1: Dennis Green, because now they get T-Law after giving up
- 58:14Speaker 1: 290-plus yards to Aaron Rodgers, three TDs, and a rate
- 58:18Speaker 1: over 100, over 8.5 yards per attempt allowed. Will the
- 58:22Speaker 1: real Slim Shady please stand up, as it were?
- 58:25Speaker 3: Put by Wilson, and he's gone! Touchdown, Steelers!
- 58:31Speaker 1: They came up with a gift INT. Their DBs gave
- 58:34Speaker 1: up 49 yards to running back Jalen Warren, 60 yards
- 58:37Speaker 1: in a TD to wide receiver Roman Wilson, and 67
- 58:40Speaker 1: yards to Pittsburgh's mountain with legs, tight end Darnell Washington.
- 58:44Speaker 1: No specific Bengals DB comes off a horrible game individually,
- 58:48Speaker 1: but collectively they are looking for more. And same is
- 58:51Speaker 1: true of their pass rush. Now, Dexter Lawrence dances in
- 58:55Speaker 1: off a two-sack day. First time we got to see
- 58:57Speaker 1: the sexy-dexy sack dance.
- 59:00Speaker 5: But an average pressure rate, and.
- 59:04Speaker 1: Those were the only two times they dropped him on
- 59:12Speaker 1: 34 attempts. Lawrence only took one sack for four yards
- 59:15Speaker 1: on his 29 throws. He faced a fat 53% blitz
- 59:20Speaker 1: rate and only dealt with pressure 31% of the time.
- 59:23Speaker 1: He'd take more of that. No monster games for many
- 59:26Speaker 1: Jags pass catchers last week. Brian Thomas, 8 yards. Tight
- 59:30Speaker 1: end Brenton Strange, 32. Parker Washington with 40 and a TD.
- 59:35Speaker 1: His second, he's made his mark in all three of
- 59:38Speaker 1: their games.
- 59:39Speaker 3: This time New England brings four.
- 59:41Speaker 12: Lawrence threads the needle and it's Washington!
- 59:46Speaker 1: Jacoby Myers with 64 yards versus New England. A score
- 59:50Speaker 1: like Washington, he's also scored now in two of their
- 59:53Speaker 1: three contests.
- 59:54Speaker 3: That's on the pass rush, and they just haven't been
- 59:57Speaker 3: able to get there. You cannot play zone coverage.
- 59:59Speaker 1: Jacksonville's run game rumbles in with a little mojo. Chris Rodriguez,
- 1:00:03Speaker 1: 37 yards and a TD on eight attempts, 4-6 a carry,
- 1:00:07Speaker 1: and Bashawl Tootin also scored 73 yards on 4-9 per.
- 1:00:14Speaker 12: Hand off to Tootin, and he is in for the
- 1:00:18Speaker 12: Jacksonville touchdown!
- 1:00:20Speaker 1: That's 4-4 or better in each game. Could make it
- 1:00:23Speaker 1: four straight if Cincinnati doesn't figure out how to correct
- 1:00:26Speaker 1: a rush defense that gave up 127 yards to Jalen
- 1:00:30Speaker 1: Warren on 7-5 a run.
- 1:00:33Speaker 3: Hand it off to Jalen Warren. Warren is still going.
- 1:00:39Speaker 3: Finally caught from behind.
- 1:00:41Speaker 1: That was part of what made it hard on Cincinnati's
- 1:00:43Speaker 1: offense once again. Respectable 6-for-12 on third down last week,
- 1:00:48Speaker 1: 27 points, so have been good for 26-plus 2-of-3 games.
- 1:00:52Speaker 3: On field, it's caught!
- 1:00:54Speaker 4: Kosicki with the go-ahead touchdown!
- 1:00:58Speaker 1: Joe Burrow only took one sack on 37 pass attempts.
- 1:01:01Speaker 1: It was a painful one to take, of course, as
- 1:01:04Speaker 1: it sealed the game. Otherwise, he'd be coming off his
- 1:01:06Speaker 1: best outing of 2026. 280-plus yards, three TDs, a rate
- 1:01:11Speaker 1: over 120, so 100-plus rate showings back-to-back weeks.
- 1:01:16Speaker 3: Look it up top. And somehow ends up in the
- 1:01:22Speaker 3: hands of T. Higgins.
- 1:01:24Speaker 1: Now he eyeballs a Jags pass rush that planted Drake
- 1:01:27Speaker 1: May three times. He only made 25 pass attempts, too.
- 1:01:30Speaker 1: Didn't send five-plus after him much, either, and still pressured
- 1:01:34Speaker 1: him a rotund 47% of his throws today. They'd love
- 1:01:38Speaker 1: another day at the office like that. Joe Shiesty and
- 1:01:47Speaker 1: his mates dealing with the Jacksonville defense that held New
- 1:01:50Speaker 1: England to six points, haven't allowed 21 in a game yet,
- 1:01:53Speaker 1: stingy bunch, held the Pats to four for 12 on
- 1:01:56Speaker 1: third down, 0 for 3 inside the 20.
- 1:01:58Speaker 12: Their D has takeaways in three straight games now.
- 1:02:06Speaker 1: The secondary Burrow will have in front of him, held
- 1:02:09Speaker 1: May to 199 yards, picked him off twice, sub 50 rate,
- 1:02:13Speaker 1: Travis Hunter with his first NFL INT.
- 1:02:17Speaker 12: Right looking, end zone, picked off, intercepted, it's Hunter.
- 1:02:23Speaker 1: Their DBs gave up 49 yards to Romeo Dobbs, 87
- 1:02:26Speaker 1: to Mack Hollins. Cornerback Jerrion Jones allowed 77 yards according
- 1:02:31Speaker 1: to NextGenStats.com. Hunter, 75. Now, for a Key and Peele
- 1:02:36Speaker 1: or Vincent and Jules-level duo, Jamar Chase, 98 yards last week,
- 1:02:40Speaker 1: scored 75-plus yards and scores back-to-back games.
- 1:02:44Speaker 3: Handoff, Burrow will throw it. Catch is made. Jamar Chase
- 1:02:48Speaker 3: is in!
- 1:02:49Speaker 1: Tee Higgins, 90 yards and a crazy TD. 90-plus for
- 1:02:53Speaker 1: him the last two.
- 1:02:54Speaker 11: Are you kidding me that the 6'4 guy just caught
- 1:02:58Speaker 11: that on his butt?
- 1:03:00Speaker 3: Like he was boxing out!
- 1:03:02Speaker 1: They're akin to a Royale with cheese. Chase Brown looms
- 1:03:06Speaker 1: as well, 61 yards, 4'7 to carry in his latest venture.
- 1:03:09Speaker 3: Blast up the middle to Brown. Big run across the
- 1:03:13Speaker 3: 40-yard line.
- 1:03:14Speaker 1: Against a Jacksonville defense that held both New England's backs
- 1:03:17Speaker 1: to fewer than 3-2 per attempt, holding rush attacks below
- 1:03:21Speaker 1: four a try.
- 1:03:22Speaker 12: Jags bring it for May, sensing it. Boy, I think
- 1:03:26Speaker 12: May fumbled that football arch towards the end. New England
- 1:03:28Speaker 12: recovering the football.
- 1:03:31Speaker 1: These two have never met with 3-0 records. The last
- 1:03:34Speaker 1: time they met week four or later with first place
- 1:03:37Speaker 1: on the line, 2019 week 13. Man, this should be
- 1:03:41Speaker 1: on primetime. Kansas City sort of sleptwalked their way through
- 1:03:44Speaker 1: week three.
- 1:03:45Speaker 9: Mahomes, third and six, end zone, touchdown, Kelsey. He's done
- 1:03:50Speaker 9: it again.
- 1:03:51Speaker 1: The black hole in an utter frenzy. The last time
- 1:03:54Speaker 1: the silver and black opened 4-0, we thought, this is
- 1:03:58Speaker 1: how you remind me was gold. Tobey Maguire was putting
- 1:04:01Speaker 1: on the mask for the first time. To get there again,
- 1:04:04Speaker 1: have to make a real statement.
- 1:04:06Speaker 3: A fumble recovered by the Raiders.
- 1:04:09Speaker 6: And if it stands, Las Vegas would be 3-0.
- 1:04:15Speaker 1: 2002, in case your memory is like mine. Tom Brady
- 1:04:17Speaker 1: owns a nickelback worth of the Raiders, 5%. So does
- 1:04:21Speaker 1: that mean Patrick Mahomes has a 10% stake in them?
- 1:04:24Speaker 1: He's 13-2 against them. So if they can get win
- 1:04:27Speaker 1: number three against him, it would be especially sweet. Captain
- 1:04:30Speaker 1: Kirk would take on Shatner-level fame if he pulls it off.
- 1:04:34Speaker 1: You know you like that 3.0 is coming right after
- 1:04:37Speaker 1: if Cousins does pull it off, right? He heads into
- 1:04:40Speaker 1: this beef-squatch battle off a 3TD get-down, 248 yards, rate
- 1:04:43Speaker 1: a tick under 120, no interceptions. Three TD passes in
- 1:04:49Speaker 1: each game of 2026.
- 1:04:50Speaker 3: Snap it with three. Cousins.
- 1:04:53Speaker 9: Fires.
- 1:04:54Speaker 3: Bowers. Wrestled in. Touchdown, Raiders.
- 1:04:58Speaker 1: So, we have a Raiders offense that went for 35
- 1:05:01Speaker 1: points versus New Orleans. Three for six in the red zone.
- 1:05:04Speaker 1: Seven for 12 on third down. and one that's been
- 1:05:07Speaker 1: good for 26-plus in all three games.
- 1:05:09Speaker 3: Third and three, empty it out. Cousins to the air.
- 1:05:12Speaker 6: One-on-one along the sideline, and Bowers wins this one.
- 1:05:16Speaker 1: Against a Kansas City defense that held Denver to 10
- 1:05:19Speaker 1: points week one, then 30 to Indy, then holds Miami
- 1:05:23Speaker 1: to 10.
- 1:05:24Speaker 9: Third and six, batted down Poulton.
- 1:05:26Speaker 3: Who else?
- 1:05:27Speaker 1: Hard to say what their identity is right now. They
- 1:05:30Speaker 1: let Miami go eight for 16 on third down, and
- 1:05:32Speaker 1: they didn't have Devon Achan most of the game, back-to-back
- 1:05:36Speaker 1: games with zero sacks. Still, Held defends to fewer than
- 1:05:44Speaker 1: five yards per play last week. No touchdowns allowed to
- 1:05:47Speaker 1: Malik Willis under six yards per attempt. Picked him off
- 1:05:51Speaker 1: low 60s rate.
- 1:05:52Speaker 9: It was batted down by Jones. And on the ricochet,
- 1:05:55Speaker 9: it was intercepted by Karloftis.
- 1:05:57Speaker 1: Kirko Chains looking at a secondary that gave up 50-plus
- 1:06:01Speaker 1: receiving yards to three guys. Malik Washington got him for 56.
- 1:06:05Speaker 3: Chris Bell, 67.
- 1:06:05Speaker 1: Tight end Greg Dulcich, 55. Tight end they face this week,
- 1:06:10Speaker 1: the top shelf variety. Brock Bowers made his return last week.
- 1:06:15Speaker 1: Cousins was like, that's my Spock. Nine more targets than
- 1:06:18Speaker 1: anybody else, 13, caught 10 of them for 116 yards
- 1:06:22Speaker 1: and a TD.
- 1:06:24Speaker 6: Left side indeed they do near the sideline. He vacuums
- 1:06:28Speaker 6: that one in.
- 1:06:29Speaker 3: Wow! And picks up the first down.
- 1:06:32Speaker 1: Trey Tucker is what, the McCoy? The only other guy
- 1:06:35Speaker 1: with 40-plus yards last week.
- 1:06:37Speaker 6: And he goes across the body to find Tucker. And
- 1:06:40Speaker 6: first and goal.
- 1:06:41Speaker 1: Cousins did take three sacks on his 33 pass attempts.
- 1:06:44Speaker 1: Next-gen stats hit left tackle Colton Miller with two of them.
- 1:06:47Speaker 3: Third and five. How do they handle it? The veteran
- 1:06:50Speaker 3: quarterback will throw. He's hit by Young. Ball out.
- 1:06:54Speaker 1: But he didn't face a high pressure rate, and again,
- 1:06:57Speaker 1: dealing with a KC pass rush that's been kind of
- 1:06:59Speaker 1: non-existent early. Ashton Genty, back-to-back rough games. 56 yards versus
- 1:07:04Speaker 1: New Orleans on 2-9 a carry, 2-3 the week before.
- 1:07:08Speaker 6: Genty, oh, he's blasted! Boy, that defensive line with a roar!
- 1:07:13Speaker 1: Kansas City let Willis lead the team in rush yards,
- 1:07:16Speaker 1: 56 of them. Won't have to worry about that with Cousins.
- 1:07:19Speaker 1: Didn't face an RB1, held the RB2, Ollie Gordon to
- 1:07:23Speaker 1: 2-4 a carry.
- 1:07:24Speaker 9: Now to Mahomes, had a pick versus Miami, one of
- 1:07:26Speaker 9: four passes he didn't complete versus the.
- 1:07:27Speaker 1: Dolphins, 246 yards on over a beefy 10 yards per attempt.
- 1:07:38Speaker 1: Rate close to 120, two touchdowns, still looked like that
- 1:07:42Speaker 1: guy again, back-to-back 110-plus rating games.
- 1:07:45Speaker 9: Here's Mahomes, more of the block, wide open, they got Rice!
- 1:07:49Speaker 1: Chiefs, good for 24 points last week, hard-earned, too hard
- 1:07:54Speaker 1: for some. Some in the kingdom say Andy held back,
- 1:07:57Speaker 1: but 24-plus in all three 2026 contests.
- 1:08:01Speaker 9: It's a shovel pass.
- 1:08:01Speaker 3: Walker, touchdown.
- 1:08:03Speaker 1: Vegas' defense was opportunistic versus the Saints. They took the
- 1:08:06Speaker 1: ball away four times.
- 1:08:08Speaker 6: Third down, four to go, four in the pattern. Shaq
- 1:08:11Speaker 6: hit as he throws. That ball hits the ground, ruled
- 1:08:13Speaker 6: a fumble. Crosby stumbles, gobbling it up.
- 1:08:17Speaker 3: Crosby.
- 1:08:18Speaker 1: Man, they needed those because they still gave up 27 points.
- 1:08:22Speaker 1: Letting New Orleans convert 9 of 15 on third down
- 1:08:25Speaker 1: didn't stop any of their four red zone trips.
- 1:08:27Speaker 6: Vegas held their first two opponents under 15 points and
- 1:08:30Speaker 6: a fewer than 190 yards passing.
- 1:08:37Speaker 1: They gave up over 250 to Tyler Shuck, along with
- 1:08:40Speaker 1: four touchdowns and a plus 100 rating. So it's a
- 1:08:47Speaker 1: tale of three weeks sort of thing. 53 yards allowed
- 1:08:51Speaker 1: to tight end Jawan Johnson, 107 to Chris Olave, main
- 1:08:55Speaker 1: culprit according to NextGenStats, safety Isaiah Polamau, who they tagged
- 1:08:59Speaker 1: with two touchdowns allowed, both short. Gotta figure Trav and
- 1:09:03Speaker 1: Tay are hitting the strip for some fun, right? Kelsey
- 1:09:06Speaker 1: has scored back-to-back weeks, went for 59 yards last week.
- 1:09:09Speaker 9: There'll be a play action right there as Mahomes goes
- 1:09:12Speaker 9: to the air. Wide open, he's got Kelsey. On the
- 1:09:15Speaker 9: move and room to roam.
- 1:09:17Speaker 1: Rasheed Rice led the team versus Miami with his best
- 1:09:20Speaker 1: effort of 2026. 88 yards, nine targets, nobody else with
- 1:09:25Speaker 1: four a week ago.
- 1:09:26Speaker 9: Bryce has been a huge target. Pick up a 15
- 1:09:28Speaker 9: right there.
- 1:09:29Speaker 1: No one else with 40 receiving yards. Kenneth Walker had
- 1:09:32Speaker 1: 70 on the ground.
- 1:09:33Speaker 9: Walker on first and 10, bursting into the secondary.
- 1:09:37Speaker 1: But under four yards per carry for the first time
- 1:09:39Speaker 1: as a Chief. Vegas gave up 57 yards to Travis
- 1:09:42Speaker 1: Achan on 4-4 a run, allowed 148 rush yards on
- 1:09:46Speaker 1: 5-3 a pop to the Saints, let Shuck get away
- 1:09:49Speaker 1: for a 36-yarder.
- 1:09:51Speaker 3: Off and running, Tyler Shuck with so much pace!
- 1:09:55Speaker 1: And the pass rush. Raiders got to Shuck twice, but
- 1:09:58Speaker 1: 42 pass attempts, a pressure rate of 17%, that's really low.
- 1:10:03Speaker 1: And they didn't blitz a lot. Nothing for Mad Max
- 1:10:05Speaker 1: last week. Malcolm Kuntz with a sack in back-to-back games, though.
- 1:10:11Speaker 1: Mahomes not dropped once, only pressured 20% of his throws,
- 1:10:15Speaker 1: left tackle a little bit of an issue at times, though.
- 1:10:19Speaker 1: Chargers go all the way east to the northwest in
- 1:10:22Speaker 1: two weeks. Maybe they can figure out how to win
- 1:10:25Speaker 1: a game up there. They are in Seattle, who had
- 1:10:33Speaker 1: their 12-game win streak snapped at the hands of a
- 1:10:36Speaker 1: backup quarterback trying to rebound from the biggest upset of
- 1:10:40Speaker 1: Week 3.
- 1:10:41Speaker 3: Lofty runs McLaurin. He goes up to get it for
- 1:10:44Speaker 3: a touchdown.
- 1:10:46Speaker 1: Who saw that one coming? Twelves, though, are not panicked.
- 1:10:49Speaker 1: Seattle got its starting quarterback back. And while Sam Darnold
- 1:10:53Speaker 1: threw two INTs, one was tipped. He also comes in
- 1:10:57Speaker 1: off a 4TD game. Over 8 yards per attempt, over
- 1:11:01Speaker 1: 370 yards for a plus 100 rate.
- 1:11:03Speaker 3: Darnold giving time, he checks it down. Fighting!
- 1:11:06Speaker 2: The ball whipped out for a moment, but he hung on!
- 1:11:09Speaker 1: Chargers defense squaring off with a Seattle offense that went
- 1:11:12Speaker 1: 4-for-5 in the red zone have put together back-to-back 31-point games.
- 1:11:17Speaker 2: Darnold throws, end zone, Smith and Jigba, touchdown! Don't overthink it,
- 1:11:22Speaker 2: give it to JSN!
- 1:11:24Speaker 1: And how about the pass protection Darnold's working with? He
- 1:11:26Speaker 1: didn't take a single sack, on 45 pass attempts. He
- 1:11:30Speaker 1: got blitzed 48% of the time, too.
- 1:11:33Speaker 3: Darnold looking end zone, giving all day. He's got Brady Russell.
- 1:11:38Speaker 1: The Chargers' pass rush he faces, though, got to Josh
- 1:11:41Speaker 1: Allen four times, only 26 pass attempts. Tooley Tooley below
- 1:11:45Speaker 1: two finally showed up. One and a half sacks, Khalil
- 1:11:48Speaker 1: Mack picked up his second of the year.
- 1:11:50Speaker 13: Trouble out and sacked on back-to-back plays. Khalil Mack that
- 1:11:55Speaker 13: time around.
- 1:11:56Speaker 1: Darnold across from a secondary that held Allen to a
- 1:11:59Speaker 1: mid-50s rate. No TDs while picking him off twice. Best
- 1:12:03Speaker 1: they've played the pass in their three games.
- 1:12:06Speaker 3: Going deep into triple coverage for DJ Moore.
- 1:12:08Speaker 13: Who wasn't picked.
- 1:12:11Speaker 3: He's got it.
- 1:12:11Speaker 1: Defense surrendered 24 points, but they came up with five takeaways.
- 1:12:16Speaker 1: Two INTs, three fumbles recovered against an offense that was rolling.
- 1:12:26Speaker 1: That is three straight games they've allowed 24-plus points, but
- 1:12:29Speaker 1: you can't hang last week on their defense. The one
- 1:12:32Speaker 1: thing they need to do, shore up their rush defense.
- 1:12:35Speaker 1: They gave up a touchdown 154 yards to James Cook
- 1:12:37Speaker 1: on 6-4 per run. gave up two Allen sneak TDs
- 1:12:47Speaker 1: too but what are you going to do with that
- 1:12:49Speaker 1: Hawks run game hits week four as cold as vanilla
- 1:12:52Speaker 1: ice no rag tops down so their hair can blow
- 1:12:55Speaker 1: 44 rush yards Emmanuel Wilson 14 yards Jadarian Price 15
- 1:12:59Speaker 1: George Holani 10 He at least gave him 48 receiving yards.
- 1:13:04Speaker 2: And they give it to Helani. George Helani spins free
- 1:13:07Speaker 2: to the 30.
- 1:13:09Speaker 1: And L.A. did get burned by a back out of
- 1:13:11Speaker 1: the backfield in a key moment, let Ty Johnson go
- 1:13:14Speaker 1: for 50 receiving yards, DJ Moore for 67. And now
- 1:13:18Speaker 1: here comes JSN. Smith and Jigba not off to a
- 1:13:21Speaker 1: very good start this year. Two touchdowns, 10 catches, 128
- 1:13:24Speaker 1: yards versus Washington. A TD in each game, six total now,
- 1:13:30Speaker 1: at least eight catches per game, 120-plus yards in each.
- 1:13:35Speaker 1: I mean, I guess that's okay.
- 1:13:37Speaker 2: It's mind-blowing he doesn't see a double team on literally
- 1:13:40Speaker 2: every snap.
- 1:13:47Speaker 1: Five guys roll in off 40-plus yard games, A.J. Barner
- 1:13:50Speaker 1: making Gronk proud with 69. Back in Darnold's hands in
- 1:13:54Speaker 1: the flats, A.J.
- 1:13:55Speaker 3: Barner having himself his best game this year.
- 1:13:58Speaker 1: Torrey Horton, 48.
- 1:13:59Speaker 2: Back to the air here, under pressure, steps up and throws, downfield,
- 1:14:04Speaker 2: first down.
- 1:14:04Speaker 1: And Cooper Cupp, a TD and 46 yards.
- 1:14:07Speaker 8: You can't play two-minute type offense any better than that.
- 1:14:11Speaker 1: All of that, and it still wasn't enough to win
- 1:14:14Speaker 1: because of a sort of uncharacteristic performance from its defense.
- 1:14:17Speaker 1: Giving up 27 points to a Marcus Mariota offense wasn't
- 1:14:21Speaker 1: on many people's bingo cards to a Washington offense that
- 1:14:25Speaker 1: hadn't cracked 24 points until that game.
- 1:14:27Speaker 3: Mariota pulls it.
- 1:14:29Speaker 2: Old Marcus Mariota, Oregon style.
- 1:14:32Speaker 1: Justin Herbert hoping maybe they don't know how to handle ducks.
- 1:14:36Speaker 1: As they gave up three touchdowns to Mariota, a 1-10
- 1:14:38Speaker 1: rate didn't pick them off. Their pass rush, only two
- 1:14:41Speaker 1: sacks on 31 pass attempts.
- 1:14:43Speaker 3: Mariota steps up, stands, throws, right.
- 1:14:45Speaker 13: For the touchdown!
- 1:14:48Speaker 1: Now, as Paul Harvey would have said for the rest
- 1:14:51Speaker 1: of the story, that, my friends, is a super deep cut.
- 1:14:54Speaker 1: They held Mariota to 183 yards. They haven't allowed 185
- 1:14:59Speaker 1: yards in a game yet. Seattle's offense turned the ball
- 1:15:02Speaker 1: over three times, and all three were converted into Washington touchdowns.
- 1:15:06Speaker 1: They held Washington to four yards per play, three for
- 1:15:10Speaker 1: 13 on third down. They only blitzed 17% of the time.
- 1:15:13Speaker 1: That's nothing. Pressured Mariota over 40% of his throws. Leonard
- 1:15:18Speaker 1: Williams with a shot at a four-game sack streak after
- 1:15:21Speaker 1: picking one up and three in a row.
- 1:15:23Speaker 2: He gets sacked. It's Leonard Williams. A sack in all
- 1:15:27Speaker 2: three games so far.
- 1:15:28Speaker 1: What they hope to get back to doing is making
- 1:15:30Speaker 1: more situational stops. Those runs they gave up to Mariota
- 1:15:34Speaker 1: and Rashad White late were backbreakers. but they still held
- 1:15:37Speaker 1: Washington to 2.6 a carry down low, just 82 rush yards.
- 1:15:41Speaker 3: He's just so good.
- 1:15:43Speaker 19: You gotta fire off, because if you don't, he's gonna
- 1:15:45Speaker 19: run you five yards in the backfield.
- 1:15:46Speaker 1: Now they set their sights on L.A.
- 1:15:48Speaker 3: 's offense.
- 1:15:49Speaker 1: Bolt Up was so excited about Mike McDaniel taking over
- 1:15:52Speaker 1: as O.C., how things have changed. Still not even 17
- 1:15:56Speaker 1: points in a game, 16 versus Buffalo, despite their D
- 1:15:59Speaker 1: handing them the ball five times. One for four in
- 1:16:02Speaker 1: the red zone, six for 15 on third down.
- 1:16:04Speaker 3: Four-man rush. Herbert nearside. Johnson dropped it!
- 1:16:08Speaker 1: And Justin Herbert has not looked good with him in
- 1:16:11Speaker 1: his ear. Or maybe it's beer, I don't know. At
- 1:16:13Speaker 1: least one INT in each game, sub-85 rate game in
- 1:16:16Speaker 1: each game. completed less than 60% of his throws back-to-back games.
- 1:16:21Speaker 13: Herbert with time. Fires down the middle. It is picked off!
- 1:16:25Speaker 3: Intercepted!
- 1:16:26Speaker 1: Seems like Big Cat has a good shot at keeping
- 1:16:28Speaker 1: his streak going. Herbert has taken two plus sacks in
- 1:16:31Speaker 1: each game. Buffalo's top guy got him twice. NextGenStats hit
- 1:16:35Speaker 1: left tackle Joe Ault. and right tackle Rashawn Slater with
- 1:16:39Speaker 1: one each, Slater with a 15% pressure rate allowed too.
- 1:16:42Speaker 13: Herbert in trouble and sacked! Big time pass rush.
- 1:16:48Speaker 1: When he has time, his three main targets, Trey Harris,
- 1:16:51Speaker 1: who was targeted most versus Buffalo, 76.
- 1:16:53Speaker 13: Yards, Standing in and delivering, and that is somehow caught
- 1:16:57Speaker 13: in a tight window by Trey Harris.
- 1:16:59Speaker 1: Vlad McConkie left high mark with 66.
- 1:17:02Speaker 11: And then the zone defense gets in there behind Bernard.
- 1:17:05Speaker 11: And a really nice touch throw by Herbert.
- 1:17:07Speaker 1: And Quentin Johnston, 40.
- 1:17:08Speaker 3: On the fake, Herbert in deep trouble, slings it out. Oh,
- 1:17:11Speaker 3: Johnston with a one-handed catch.
- 1:17:14Speaker 1: Their ground game also needs work. O'Marion Hampton, fewer than
- 1:17:18Speaker 1: four yards per carry week three. Under four per. two
- 1:17:21Speaker 1: of three games now. Keaton Mitchell more efficient last week
- 1:17:25Speaker 1: going for 52 yards on 6-5 per attempt.
- 1:17:28Speaker 11: Left side they run a little crack play where they crack.
- 1:17:30Speaker 3: The end bounces off Keaton Mitchell.
- 1:17:32Speaker 1: They start 0-4 and that's a massive uphill climb back
- 1:17:36Speaker 1: to a shot at the playoffs. Only one team has
- 1:17:39Speaker 1: ever pulled it off but hey guess what it was
- 1:17:41Speaker 1: the Chargers. Two squads in the rebound line meet up
- 1:17:45Speaker 1: in this one. Rams hoping to get back to. 500
- 1:17:48Speaker 1: after coming up just short in the Mile High City
- 1:17:51Speaker 1: last week.
- 1:17:52Speaker 3: Hufanga holds on. Intercepted. The Broncos win.
- 1:17:57Speaker 1: They are now in the city of brotherly love, though
- 1:17:59Speaker 1: there is very little love going around after they took
- 1:18:02Speaker 1: an L to a 38-year-old quarterback who hadn't started a
- 1:18:06Speaker 1: game in three years.
- 1:18:08Speaker 3: They just get it away, and Keenum is in. Touchdown, Chicago.
- 1:18:16Speaker 1: What in the world was that? Was echoing throughout Philadelphia
- 1:18:19Speaker 1: all last week, may have been the Eagles' first loss,
- 1:18:22Speaker 1: but a narrow escape versus Tennessee Week 2, and then
- 1:18:26Speaker 1: that Week 3 debacle? Confidence is not high in Go-Bird circles.
- 1:18:30Speaker 1: With 247 yards, two TDs, and a 100-plus rating allowed
- 1:18:34Speaker 1: to case Keenum, didn't sack him once on 34 pass attempts.
- 1:18:38Speaker 1: Defense wobbling in after giving up 27 points to a
- 1:18:42Speaker 1: Keenum-led Bears O.
- 1:18:44Speaker 3: Here's Raymond Khalif! To the end zone!
- 1:18:48Speaker 1: It begs the question, if they had trouble with Case,
- 1:18:51Speaker 1: then what will Matthew Stafford do against them? He's gone
- 1:18:54Speaker 1: for 300-plus yards back-to-back games. He just threw for two
- 1:18:58Speaker 1: TDs in 390 versus Denver.
- 1:19:00Speaker 7: L.A.
- 1:19:00Speaker 1: 's offense good for 26 and 28 points, their last two.
- 1:19:04Speaker 3: Touchdown! Stafford comes right back, and the Rams take the lead!
- 1:19:10Speaker 1: Plenty to clean up, though. One for four in the
- 1:19:12Speaker 1: red zone. Stafford a mid-70s rating last week, throwing two INTs,
- 1:19:16Speaker 1: the first to pick six.
- 1:19:18Speaker 16: And Stafford will likely give Philadelphia's pass rushers more time
- 1:19:23Speaker 16: to get to him.
- 1:19:31Speaker 1: His average time to throw, 2.8 seconds. Keenum's was under 2.5.
- 1:19:36Speaker 1: He took four sacks versus Denver on 55 pass attempts.
- 1:19:39Speaker 17: Both L.A.
- 1:19:40Speaker 1: 's tackles got beat for a sack each. Left tackle
- 1:19:43Speaker 1: Aleric Jackson is allowed two now in his three games.
- 1:19:49Speaker 3: L.A.
- 1:19:49Speaker 1: Hoping Puka Nakua might be healed up. Hard to say, though.
- 1:19:52Speaker 1: He missed his second game in a row. Track his status.
- 1:19:55Speaker 1: If he's out, it's more Devontae Adams. 130-plus yards back-to-back
- 1:19:59Speaker 1: games without him. 137 last week on 13 targets.
- 1:20:03Speaker 3: That's for Devontae Adams. On the run, Adams. There he goes.
- 1:20:07Speaker 3: Devontae Adams, midfield and more.
- 1:20:10Speaker 1: Konata Mumfield stepped in Puka's place, 93 yards and a touchdown.
- 1:20:14Speaker 3: Great job by Stafford. He saw it all the way.
- 1:20:16Speaker 15: They tried to bring pressure, and you saw what happened.
- 1:20:19Speaker 1: Kyron Williams, six catches, 70 yards out of the backfield.
- 1:20:23Speaker 3: Stafford, they're going to the middle of the field. It's
- 1:20:25Speaker 3: Kyron Williams.
- 1:20:26Speaker 1: And tight end Tyler Higbee, eight catches, 62 yards and
- 1:20:30Speaker 1: a score.
- 1:20:30Speaker 3: The throw is complete at the goal line. Higbee gets him.
- 1:20:34Speaker 1: Eagles secondary primarily struggled with wideouts last week. gave up
- 1:20:38Speaker 1: 61 yards and a touchdown to Luther Burden, 90 yards
- 1:20:41Speaker 1: and a 41-yard TD to Kalief Raymond. Linebacker Zach Bond
- 1:20:45Speaker 1: blamed for that one by NextGenStats, along with 86 yards allowed.
- 1:20:50Speaker 1: Along the ground, they gave up 84 yards on 4-2
- 1:20:53Speaker 1: a run to DeAndre Swift, held Kyle Menungai to 3-1
- 1:20:57Speaker 1: a carry. Sort of a mixed showing.
- 1:20:59Speaker 3: Menungai, Zach Bond.
- 1:21:01Speaker 1: Get another two-headed attack this week. Blake Corum, only six
- 1:21:05Speaker 1: attempts last week, just 2.5 a carry. Williams went for
- 1:21:09Speaker 1: 80-plus yards, 5'9 plus back-to-back weeks.
- 1:21:12Speaker 3: Kyron Williams into the secondary. Big run by Williams as
- 1:21:16Speaker 3: he cuts back.
- 1:21:17Speaker 1: Philadelphia's back also comes in off a good outing. Saquon,
- 1:21:20Speaker 1: 82 yards, 5'5 a carry versus Chicago.
- 1:21:23Speaker 14: Barkley, nice, nice run as he bounces another good one.
- 1:21:27Speaker 1: Barkley, only 15 attempts, barely got run in the second half.
- 1:21:31Speaker 1: It was baffling based on how easy it looked in
- 1:21:33Speaker 1: the first, too. And the game was tight in the
- 1:21:36Speaker 1: third quarter. His lack of use, part of the reason
- 1:21:38Speaker 1: Philadelphia's offense only mustered seven points.
- 1:21:41Speaker 3: O.C.
- 1:21:42Speaker 1: Sean Mannion taking heat as the weeks pass. Two for
- 1:21:45Speaker 1: nine on third down. Jalen Hurts following up a two-I-and-T
- 1:21:49Speaker 1: game versus the Titans with another bad pick versus Chicago.
- 1:21:53Speaker 1: left Chi-Town with just 153 yards, no touchdowns, and a
- 1:21:57Speaker 1: mid-60s rate.
- 1:21:58Speaker 3: He was going to Devontae Smith the whole way, just
- 1:22:00Speaker 3: not there.
- 1:22:01Speaker 1: Lots of play-calling questions. Sure, no Eagles fan was happy
- 1:22:05Speaker 1: about the sensitivity level that led to Hurts having to
- 1:22:07Speaker 1: hit the blue tent, but maybe just have Andy hand
- 1:22:10Speaker 1: to Saquon a couple of more times? rather than try
- 1:22:13Speaker 1: and throw it when he was cold. The LA defense
- 1:22:18Speaker 1: they try and get right against is banged up, won't
- 1:22:21Speaker 1: have corner Jalen Watson, allowed Denver to go 3-for-3 in
- 1:22:24Speaker 1: the red zone, didn't come through down the stretch when
- 1:22:27Speaker 1: they really needed a stop. Okay, but they're not totally
- 1:22:34Speaker 1: dazed and confused either. That P.I. call that negated a
- 1:22:37Speaker 1: pick on Denver's game-winning drive? had Rams fans feeling the
- 1:22:41Speaker 1: same way O'Banion did when those freshmen dumped paint on him.
- 1:22:44Speaker 1: They held Denver to 4.3 yards per play, held Bo
- 1:22:48Speaker 1: Nix to 186 yards, and a low 70s rate by
- 1:22:51Speaker 1: picking him off. They've held the last two quarterbacks faced
- 1:22:54Speaker 1: under 190 yards.
- 1:22:56Speaker 10: This throw's intercepted! So the pressure came from Kobe Turner!
- 1:23:00Speaker 1: But they need more from that pass rush. Only one
- 1:23:02Speaker 1: sack on 34 Nix pass attempts, blitzed him 40% of
- 1:23:05Speaker 1: the time, sub-35% pressure rate. Hurts' line is hurting. The
- 1:23:11Speaker 1: Cam Juergens move to guard hasn't been working. He gave
- 1:23:14Speaker 1: up a 16% pressure rate versus Chicago. That's high for
- 1:23:17Speaker 1: that spot. Didn't give up either sack Hurts took at least.
- 1:23:21Speaker 14: Hurts in trouble. Breaking tackles and has to slide.
- 1:23:25Speaker 1: LA's secondary held every Bronco under 50 receiving yards. Only
- 1:23:29Speaker 1: one Eagle with 35+. Dontavia and Wicks only 32%. Makai
- 1:23:34Speaker 1: Lemon just 29%. Devontae Smith led the way again with 65.
- 1:23:37Speaker 2: It's a great play by Devontae Smith going up one-on-one.
- 1:23:42Speaker 1: As for Saquon, L.A. held J.K. Dobbins to 2.9 a run,
- 1:23:46Speaker 1: holding running backs to 3.8 per so far in 2026.
- 1:23:49Speaker 1: Miami Dolphins are on the road this week searching for
- 1:23:54Speaker 1: win number one still. Maybe Lebowski can find it in
- 1:23:57Speaker 1: his toilet with a million dollars? Let him take another look.
- 1:24:00Speaker 9: Fourth and three, a lot of pressure, and the incompletion
- 1:24:04Speaker 9: with the coverage by Delane.
- 1:24:06Speaker 1: Apparently, you're not a golfer. They head to Minnesota, the
- 1:24:09Speaker 1: Vikings still waiting on their new-look offense to show what
- 1:24:12Speaker 1: it can do. In the meantime, though, they're 3-0 because
- 1:24:15Speaker 1: they know what their defense can do.
- 1:24:17Speaker 10: Instead of pumping and using the timeouts, Mayfield under pressure
- 1:24:24Speaker 10: from Wilson.
- 1:24:26Speaker 3: Still on his feet. Now he throws.
- 1:24:30Speaker 1: Minnesota better take advantage of Brian Flora's defense soon. If
- 1:24:34Speaker 1: nothing changes, dude's gone at the end of the year, right?
- 1:24:37Speaker 1: Off to be one of those HCDCs. There is no reason,
- 1:24:41Speaker 1: on paper at least, that he and his boys can't
- 1:24:43Speaker 1: lead the way to another win in this one.
- 1:24:48Speaker 3: He winds up getting forced out of bounds. by Eric Wilson.
- 1:24:52Speaker 1: They held Tampa to 16 points. That's three straight under 23.
- 1:24:56Speaker 1: Held them to two for 17 on third down to
- 1:24:59Speaker 1: fewer than four yards per play. That's ridiculous. Held Baker
- 1:25:03Speaker 1: Mayfield to a sub-70 rate, picked him off, and then
- 1:25:06Speaker 1: sealed things with a pick of his backup. They already
- 1:25:09Speaker 1: own the first place slot in rating allowed.
- 1:25:11Speaker 10: Now he fires downfield.
- 1:25:19Speaker 3: Time winds down.
- 1:25:20Speaker 1: And now they take on a Miami offense without its
- 1:25:23Speaker 1: best player. And they were not lighting up the scoreboard
- 1:25:26Speaker 1: with Devon Achan. His backup, Ollie Gordon, was held to
- 1:25:30Speaker 1: 41 yards on 2.4 a run last week. Their offense,
- 1:25:33Speaker 1: 13 points weeks 1 and 2, and then 10 versus
- 1:25:37Speaker 1: Kansas City. Malik Willis, no touchdowns, one pick, a low
- 1:25:40Speaker 1: 60s rate. He has one TD and two INTs over
- 1:25:44Speaker 1: three games.
- 1:25:45Speaker 9: And Denver.
- 1:25:54Speaker 1: Willis didn't take a single sack last week on 36
- 1:25:57Speaker 1: pass attempts either, so what's it look like when Minnesota's
- 1:26:00Speaker 1: pass rush comes knocking? Flores dialed back last week, only
- 1:26:04Speaker 1: blitzed 56% of the time, which is still really high.
- 1:26:08Speaker 1: Vikings split a Baker sixer when it was over. Eric
- 1:26:11Speaker 1: Wilson with one and a half sacks. Newcomer Kyle Van
- 1:26:14Speaker 1: Noy with one and a half. They hit the QB
- 1:26:17Speaker 1: 12 times.
- 1:26:18Speaker 3: It's been out of trouble. Running for it and he
- 1:26:21Speaker 3: is thrown to the turf.
- 1:26:26Speaker 1: They are also first in sacks after three weeks. And
- 1:26:29Speaker 1: they don't sacrifice anything when it comes to stopping the run,
- 1:26:32Speaker 1: Gordon looking at a group that held Bucky Irving to
- 1:26:35Speaker 1: 3.1 a carry.
- 1:26:36Speaker 10: On second and six, a flag as Irving is hit
- 1:26:39Speaker 10: in the backfield by Wilson, who's had a strong game.
- 1:26:42Speaker 3: For the Vikings.
- 1:26:42Speaker 1: Vikings DBs gave up 56 yards to Cade Otten, 62
- 1:26:46Speaker 1: to Emeka Ibuka, a 40-yard TD to Ted Hurst, safety
- 1:26:50Speaker 1: Josh Metellus tagged by NextGenStats for the touchdown. Miami had
- 1:26:54Speaker 1: three guys go for 50-plus yards versus Kansas City, Greg
- 1:26:58Speaker 1: Dulcich with 55.
- 1:26:59Speaker 9: Here comes Woods, there he goes, downfield, caught!
- 1:27:03Speaker 3: What a grab, double-teamed!
- 1:27:05Speaker 9: It's Dulcich with the catch!
- 1:27:07Speaker 1: Malik Washington, 56.
- 1:27:08Speaker 9: In college, here's a second and seven, swings it outside,
- 1:27:13Speaker 9: there's Washington, on the move, and there he goes!
- 1:27:16Speaker 1: And rookie Chris Bell with 67.
- 1:27:18Speaker 3: Still, it's as lopsided a matchup can look on that
- 1:27:20Speaker 3: side of things.
- 1:27:21Speaker 2: But if the game were to be close, it's because
- 1:27:23Speaker 2: Minnesota's offense is still struggling.
- 1:27:25Speaker 1: Only 16 points last week. They scored on a punt return, too,
- 1:27:38Speaker 1: after only cobbling together nine in the rain win over Chicago.
- 1:27:42Speaker 1: Their own offense as bad as Tampa Bay's going two
- 1:27:45Speaker 1: for 15 on third down. They didn't make it into
- 1:27:47Speaker 1: the red zone once.
- 1:27:48Speaker 3: They need the 49-yard line.
- 1:27:50Speaker 10: Third down and seven.
- 1:27:53Speaker 3: Pass intended for Addison.
- 1:27:55Speaker 1: Kyler Murray didn't have Justin Jefferson for half the game.
- 1:27:58Speaker 1: They think he'll be back for this one. Ankle sprain? Murray,
- 1:28:01Speaker 1: only 168 yards, a TD and a pick. mid-60s rate
- 1:28:06Speaker 1: in his first full game in purple. Being he was
- 1:28:14Speaker 1: picked off in week one before getting hurt, he hasn't
- 1:28:17Speaker 1: made many believers in Skull Nation yet. Took three sacks
- 1:28:20Speaker 1: versus Tampa Bay, who didn't have two of their best
- 1:28:22Speaker 1: front seven defenders. Guard Will Fries allowed one per NGS.
- 1:28:27Speaker 1: Right tackle Brian O'Neal won. They both allowed one each
- 1:28:30Speaker 1: the week prior to.
- 1:28:33Speaker 3: Down he goes. Got a flag.
- 1:28:38Speaker 1: Dolphins defense. tries to show something against came up with
- 1:28:42Speaker 1: a pick of Patrick Mahomes and that was about it.
- 1:28:45Speaker 1: Let him complete 20 of 24 passes gave up over
- 1:28:48Speaker 1: 10 yards per attempt over 240 yards a rate near
- 1:28:50Speaker 1: 120 and gave up 24 points, which makes 24-plus points
- 1:28:56Speaker 1: allowed in all three games. Pass rush coming off a
- 1:29:05Speaker 1: zero sack showing, a lowly 20% pressure rate. And Chop Robinson,
- 1:29:10Speaker 1: you know the rules, okay, buddy? Only allowed to pull
- 1:29:13Speaker 1: his flag, right? Hitting the quarterback? What, you thought you
- 1:29:16Speaker 1: were playing tackle football or something? They gave up 88
- 1:29:19Speaker 1: yards to Rasheed Rice, 59 yards in a TD to
- 1:29:22Speaker 1: Travis Kelsey, likely get Jeddah's, for sure get Jordan Addison,
- 1:29:26Speaker 1: the only Viking with 35-plus yards last week, 41-yard TD
- 1:29:31Speaker 1: as part of a 90-yard day.
- 1:29:32Speaker 3: Down and eight. Murray going deep. What an adjustment!
- 1:29:37Speaker 9: Wow!
- 1:29:38Speaker 10: Into the end zone, touchdown Addison!
- 1:29:41Speaker 1: Aaron Jones with 34 receiving yards to go along with
- 1:29:44Speaker 1: 58 on the ground in his most recent outing.
- 1:29:46Speaker 3: Down. And Jones will pick up a Vikings first.
- 1:29:52Speaker 1: Only 3-4 a carry. Dolphins did play Kenneth Walker well, too.
- 1:29:56Speaker 1: Held him under four per run. New York Jets stay
- 1:30:00Speaker 1: on the road for another tilt with an NFC North contingent.
- 1:30:03Speaker 1: They gave the last one they faced a run for
- 1:30:06Speaker 1: its money. Now, if they can just cash that check
- 1:30:09Speaker 1: when they need it.
- 1:30:10Speaker 3: Comes the pressure, and down he goes. Ball came out.
- 1:30:13Speaker 3: It is scooped up by Detroit and Jack Campbell.
- 1:30:16Speaker 1: They are in Chicago this week. Third NFC North team
- 1:30:19Speaker 1: they take on in a row, actually. Bears fans rushing
- 1:30:22Speaker 1: to dust off the Keenum jerseys they don't own. Case
- 1:30:25Speaker 1: apparently able to work miracles in more places than just Minneapolis.
- 1:30:29Speaker 3: And away, and Keenum is in. Touchdown, Chicago.
- 1:30:38Speaker 1: Bear down, feeling like those old bandits.
- 1:30:41Speaker 3: Badgent?
- 1:30:41Speaker 1: We ain't got no badgent. We don't need no badgent.
- 1:30:44Speaker 1: We don't have to use no stinking badgent. We got 11, man.
- 1:30:48Speaker 1: Dude hadn't started a game since 2023, had been living
- 1:30:51Speaker 1: the Todd Chavez life, couch surfing for two years, goes
- 1:30:55Speaker 1: out and drops 247 yards, over seven yards per attempt,
- 1:30:59Speaker 1: two TDs for a 110 rate, no picks, like a
- 1:31:03Speaker 1: 13-year-old playing Madden.
- 1:31:04Speaker 3: Khalif to the end zone. Touchdown, Chicago. No flags.
- 1:31:10Speaker 1: It was pretty much on par with what Old Man
- 1:31:13Speaker 1: Rivers did last year. Leads Chicago's offense to 27 points.
- 1:31:17Speaker 3: To Burton again.
- 1:31:19Speaker 14: He's got a first down and still going inside the five.
- 1:31:22Speaker 14: And into the end zone.
- 1:31:24Speaker 6: Touchdown.
- 1:31:26Speaker 1: And they left points on the table, too. Two for
- 1:31:29Speaker 1: five in the red zone. Second and an inch on
- 1:31:31Speaker 1: the goal line. Ben, buddy. You needed a toe. Walter
- 1:31:35Speaker 1: could have got you a toe with green nail polish.
- 1:31:38Speaker 1: There are ways, believe me. Just run three sneaks in
- 1:31:41Speaker 1: a row and you got yourself a toe. Nonetheless, they
- 1:31:44Speaker 1: faced New York with a ton of confidence. Keenum didn't
- 1:31:46Speaker 1: get the week four nod after the game, so Tyson
- 1:31:49Speaker 1: could get it, if for no other reason than to
- 1:31:52Speaker 1: keep New York's defense guessing. It had fared well weeks
- 1:31:55Speaker 1: one and two, held it under 21 points those games,
- 1:31:58Speaker 1: then gave up 31 to Detroit.
- 1:32:00Speaker 3: Must play for Gibbs. Oh, he cuts it back. What
- 1:32:04Speaker 3: a move. Jameer Gibbs. Individual effort. Touchdown.
- 1:32:09Speaker 1: Let Detroit convert four of five red zone chances. Secondary
- 1:32:13Speaker 1: gave up over 260 yards on over eight yards per
- 1:32:16Speaker 1: attempt to Jared Goff. Two TDs, no picks for a
- 1:32:19Speaker 1: 120-plus rate allowed.
- 1:32:21Speaker 3: Gibbs with space, and a touchdown is third of the day.
- 1:32:24Speaker 1: And Detroit again had held the previous two passing attacks
- 1:32:28Speaker 1: to fewer than 140 yards. had held each offense to
- 1:32:32Speaker 1: fewer than 70 rush yards, then gave up 131 to Detroit,
- 1:32:36Speaker 1: couldn't handle Jameer Gibbs, who they let pull in 65
- 1:32:40Speaker 1: receiving yards and a touchdown, gave up 99 yards on
- 1:32:43Speaker 1: five a carry to him with two more TDs.
- 1:32:46Speaker 20: Gibbs knifing in 100 yards and another touchdown.
- 1:32:52Speaker 1: So they are hoping week three wasn't indicative of what
- 1:32:55Speaker 1: kind of defense they are, that it was just Detroit's
- 1:32:58Speaker 1: offense being too much to handle. They get a two-headed
- 1:33:01Speaker 1: rush attack this week. Kyle Menungai only 31 yards on
- 1:33:04Speaker 1: 3-1 to carry versus Philadelphia. DeAndre Swift more effective, 84 yards,
- 1:33:09Speaker 1: 4-2 per attempt.
- 1:33:10Speaker 14: Swift has got the first down and rumbles inside the
- 1:33:14Speaker 14: 20 and night-night.
- 1:33:16Speaker 1: Bears line also didn't allow Keenum to take a sack.
- 1:33:19Speaker 1: They employed a lot of quick passes. Time to throw
- 1:33:21Speaker 1: under 2.5 seconds, which is quick, but they used play
- 1:33:25Speaker 1: action plenty too. Faced pressure less than 30% of the time,
- 1:33:29Speaker 1: that's a win.
- 1:33:30Speaker 14: Jets got to golf twice on 32 pass.
- 1:33:33Speaker 3: Attempts, 44% blitz rate.
- 1:33:39Speaker 1: Yet pressured him only 30% of his throws. He completed
- 1:33:42Speaker 1: 25 of 32, so it didn't bother him much. They
- 1:33:46Speaker 1: ended up giving up 40-plus yards to four guys. They're
- 1:33:50Speaker 1: linebackers on the hook for most of the yards, though.
- 1:33:52Speaker 1: Linebacker Jamie and Sherwood gave up 115 yards alone per NextGenStats.
- 1:33:58Speaker 1: DeMario Davis, 61 yards allowed. Again, the Gibbs factor. Keenum's production,
- 1:34:03Speaker 1: more WR based though. Tight end Colston Loveland just 31 yards,
- 1:34:08Speaker 1: Romo Dunze 44. It's coming in in week 12.
- 1:34:12Speaker 3: Here's a pass caught. First down, what a throw. It's O'Dunze.
- 1:34:17Speaker 1: Luther Burden, 61, plus a TD.
- 1:34:20Speaker 2: On initial contact with Philadelphia, not so bad, but that
- 1:34:23Speaker 2: was a problem last week. Missed tackles, you see, they're
- 1:34:26Speaker 2: just not able to make a stop. Three or four tackles.
- 1:34:29Speaker 1: And everybody in Chicago loves Raymond these days. Kalief, 90
- 1:34:33Speaker 1: yards in that big TD. He's gone for 80-plus yards
- 1:34:36Speaker 1: in two or three games now.
- 1:34:37Speaker 2: Raymond, he just comes off. Nobody's there. They're locked up
- 1:34:40Speaker 2: in man coverage, a busted coverage. By Philadelphia.
- 1:34:44Speaker 1: DeBeers lovers aren't just excited about the prospect of the
- 1:34:48Speaker 1: offense still functioning without Caleb, who, by the way, was
- 1:34:51Speaker 1: feeling very Corey Hart last week. I wear my sunglasses
- 1:34:55Speaker 1: at night. But they're just as stoked about the possibility
- 1:34:58Speaker 1: of their defense being better than last year.
- 1:35:01Speaker 3: Hurt's in trouble.
- 1:35:03Speaker 14: Breaking tackles and has to slide.
- 1:35:06Speaker 1: Head into this week holding its last two opponents under
- 1:35:08Speaker 1: 10 points you can say the rain helped versus minnesota
- 1:35:12Speaker 1: but it was dry versus philadelphia and they kept them
- 1:35:14Speaker 1: to seven two for nine on third down secondary holding
- 1:35:18Speaker 1: jalen hertz to 153 yards just 6.1 yards per attempt
- 1:35:23Speaker 1: no tds picked him and andy dalton off oh shit
- 1:35:27Speaker 1: dalton Here comes another test because Geno is coming in hot.
- 1:35:37Speaker 1: Smith enters off his best game yet. Three TDs, 31
- 1:35:40Speaker 1: of 37, over 8.5 yards per attempt for a rate
- 1:35:41Speaker 1: close to 130. That's two 100-plus rate games now. and
- 1:35:48Speaker 1: zero INTs, which was his issue last year.
- 1:35:51Speaker 3: Some extra pressure. Geno, tough throw. Down the middle. What
- 1:35:55Speaker 3: a catch. Right on cue.
- 1:35:57Speaker 20: They stretch the field, and Garrett Wilson.
- 1:36:00Speaker 1: Jets offense came up with a season-high 24 points versus Detroit.
- 1:36:04Speaker 1: Six for 12 on third down, two for three in
- 1:36:06Speaker 1: the red zone.
- 1:36:07Speaker 3: No Smith.
- 1:36:08Speaker 19: They have two areas to try and fix week over week,
- 1:36:16Speaker 19: rush game and pass protection.
- 1:36:18Speaker 1: Smith took five sacks on 37 pass attempts. He didn't
- 1:36:22Speaker 1: face a high blitz rate, still faced pressure over 40%
- 1:36:24Speaker 1: of the time. Left tackle Hulu Fashanu gave up two
- 1:36:28Speaker 1: and a half sacks, according to NGS. He's now allowed
- 1:36:31Speaker 1: three and a half for the year.
- 1:36:32Speaker 20: Now four-man rush, getting to Geno Smith, back-to-back sacks, and
- 1:36:37Speaker 20: it's number two of the day for DJ Wanam.
- 1:36:39Speaker 1: Chicago's pass rush got to Hurts twice on 25 pass attempts.
- 1:36:43Speaker 1: Dio Odingbo and Montez Sweat each picked up their second
- 1:36:47Speaker 1: of the season.
- 1:36:48Speaker 9: Hurts, sacked.
- 1:36:53Speaker 1: Chicago's secondary allowed only one eagle to top 35 yards.
- 1:36:57Speaker 1: Devontae Smith, who went for 65, cornered Jalen Johnson, giving
- 1:37:01Speaker 1: up 63 yards and a 118 rate in that game,
- 1:37:04Speaker 1: gave up over 100 yards week one, a 100-plus rate
- 1:37:07Speaker 1: in week two. He is, of course, in front of
- 1:37:10Speaker 1: guys like Garrett Wilson each game. season-best 107 yards versus
- 1:37:14Speaker 1: the Lions, one of his patented Gumby-like TD receptions.
- 1:37:19Speaker 3: And Kenyon Sadiq with a real beaut, Clark.
- 1:37:27Speaker 1: That score, plus he also went for 100-plus yards. The
- 1:37:30Speaker 1: rookie shined.
- 1:37:32Speaker 13: Throws down the seam, it is caught!
- 1:37:35Speaker 3: Kenyon Sadiq!
- 1:37:36Speaker 1: Bears front still struggling versus the run. Gave up 82
- 1:37:40Speaker 1: yards on 5-5 a carry to Saquon Barkley. We're more
- 1:37:43Speaker 1: than happy that Philadelphia, for some reason, stopped handing him
- 1:37:46Speaker 1: the ball in the second half. They gave up over
- 1:37:48Speaker 1: 100 yards to Aaron Jones on 4-6 a run week
- 1:37:51Speaker 1: two as well. So, still trying to find a way
- 1:37:53Speaker 1: to stop backs.
- 1:37:54Speaker 3: Here's Barkley over the left side.
- 1:37:56Speaker 14: Good run! Out of bounds inside the five near the two.
- 1:38:00Speaker 1: Will they have to face Brees Hall? He left last
- 1:38:03Speaker 1: week hurt. Only 2-5 a carry before he left. Braylon Allen,
- 1:38:07Speaker 1: 3-5 per. He'd be the guy if Hall can't go.
- 1:38:11Speaker 1: Carolina Panthers, in prime time, come in battered and bruised
- 1:38:15Speaker 1: in so many ways. Have to overcome a lot of
- 1:38:17Speaker 1: big injuries to get back to.
- 1:38:18Speaker 3: 500.
- 1:38:19Speaker 2: He's looking, end zone throw, touchdown! That's a Carolina score!
- 1:38:23Speaker 3: John Mechie!
- 1:38:25Speaker 1: And have to overcome the Detroit Lions in that 31-point
- 1:38:29Speaker 1: offense of theirs.
- 1:38:30Speaker 3: Oh, he cuts it back! What a move! Jameer Gibbs!
- 1:38:34Speaker 3: Individual effort! Touchdown!
- 1:38:37Speaker 1: Detroit with a chance to become the first team ever
- 1:38:39Speaker 1: to open a year with 31 points in four straight games.
- 1:38:43Speaker 1: They went 4-for-5 in the red zone in their most
- 1:38:45Speaker 1: recent 31-pointer, 5-for-10 on third down, Jameer Gibbs with his
- 1:38:50Speaker 1: second 2TD game of 2026, 99 yards, 5 a carry
- 1:38:54Speaker 1: versus New York.
- 1:38:55Speaker 3: Knifing in, another touchdown.
- 1:38:57Speaker 1: Carolina's beat-up secondary might be more enticing to pick on, though.
- 1:39:01Speaker 1: And Jared Goff comes off a 260-plus yard, 2-TD game
- 1:39:06Speaker 1: over eight yards per attempt. Rate over 120, 120-plus rating,
- 1:39:10Speaker 1: back-to-back games, eight touchdowns without a pick over three games.
- 1:39:15Speaker 20: Goff fades it for St. Brown and a touchdown to
- 1:39:18Speaker 20: be held on.
- 1:39:19Speaker 3: He did.
- 1:39:20Speaker 1: Now Goff goes after a secondary that won't have J.C.
- 1:39:23Speaker 1: Horn its top corner. might not even have Michael Jackson
- 1:39:27Speaker 1: its second-best corner either. He hurt his groin. Their starting
- 1:39:31Speaker 1: safety Nick Scott missed last week too, as did linebacker
- 1:39:34Speaker 1: Devin Lloyd, who was excellent against the pass. They overcame
- 1:39:38Speaker 1: those losses or absences last week and still held Deshaun
- 1:39:42Speaker 1: Watson to 144 passing yards under five yards per attempt,
- 1:39:46Speaker 1: a sub-90 rate.
- 1:39:48Speaker 2: Deadsell couldn't haul it in because of the excellent coverage.
- 1:39:51Speaker 2: Caleb Evans, because Mike Jackson went out They.
- 1:39:54Speaker 1: Did give up two TDs to Watson, the second late
- 1:39:57Speaker 1: that let Cleveland retake the lead, but that Panthers defense
- 1:40:00Speaker 1: gave them a chance, holding Cleveland at 21 points, five
- 1:40:03Speaker 1: for 15 on third down, only 4.1 yards per play,
- 1:40:07Speaker 1: fewer than 130 yards passing allowed back-to-back games, under 22
- 1:40:12Speaker 1: points allowed back-to-back weeks.
- 1:40:14Speaker 3: The third and 14th.
- 1:40:19Speaker 1: And let's be honest, that penalty that kept Cleveland's late
- 1:40:23Speaker 1: drive alive? Randy Marsh would be wondering why we aren't
- 1:40:27Speaker 1: just playing sarcastic ball at this point. Carolina's pass rush
- 1:40:30Speaker 1: did drop Watson a couple of times. have six over
- 1:40:34Speaker 1: three games.
- 1:40:34Speaker 2: Watson was backing up, trying to slip through the hands
- 1:40:38Speaker 2: of Gibson.
- 1:40:39Speaker 1: Goff threw 32 times, took two sacks, faced a 44%
- 1:40:43Speaker 1: blitz rate, only faced pressure at a 30% rate. He
- 1:40:47Speaker 1: could work with that again. Carolina really could use Lloyd's
- 1:40:50Speaker 1: pass-D skills. Gibbs, of course, just as dangerous as a
- 1:40:54Speaker 1: pass catcher, caught a touchdown versus the Jets with 65
- 1:40:57Speaker 1: receiving yards.
- 1:40:58Speaker 20: Like Jameer Gibbs with space, and a touchdown is third
- 1:41:01Speaker 20: of the day, and Detroit.
- 1:41:03Speaker 3: Has the lead.
- 1:41:04Speaker 1: Lloyd would also factor in defending tight end Sam Laporta,
- 1:41:08Speaker 1: who went for 44 yards a week ago.
- 1:41:10Speaker 3: It is a shot down field for Laporta. 27 yards
- 1:41:13Speaker 3: to the Detroit tight end.
- 1:41:15Speaker 1: Jackson needed to help handle Detroit's wide receiver trio. Amon
- 1:41:19Speaker 1: Ross St. Brown acquired 19 yards on eight targets last week.
- 1:41:23Speaker 1: He did score at least. Jamison Williams, 49 yards.
- 1:41:26Speaker 3: Up top.
- 1:41:27Speaker 20: Oh, Jamison Williams. This is an athletic catch by Jamo.
- 1:41:32Speaker 1: And Isaac Tesla, who led the team with 66 yards.
- 1:41:37Speaker 3: Big gainer.
- 1:41:38Speaker 20: Isaac Tesla down into the red zone of New York.
- 1:41:41Speaker 3: Just like that. A big play for Detroit.
- 1:41:43Speaker 1: I've decided to say his name like that forever on
- 1:41:46Speaker 1: for anybody who is new to these previews and takes
- 1:41:49Speaker 1: the bait and calls me AI slop. It's the little
- 1:41:52Speaker 1: things in life, man. So, we have a strong Carolina
- 1:41:55Speaker 1: defense as of late, with all sorts of hurt guys,
- 1:41:58Speaker 1: and a hot Detroit offense paired with a Lions defense
- 1:42:02Speaker 1: that's still a little wobbly in the legs, and a
- 1:42:04Speaker 1: Panthers offense that short-circuited Week 3 after looking pretty potent
- 1:42:09Speaker 1: before that. From 34 and 37 points to 18 versus Cleveland,
- 1:42:12Speaker 1: 4 for 15 on 3rd down, 1 for 3 in
- 1:42:13Speaker 1: the red zone, Bryce Young, a 70 rating game, only
- 1:42:20Speaker 1: one TD got picked off.
- 1:42:21Speaker 3: Young did throw for over 290 yards.
- 1:42:29Speaker 1: That's 280-plus in each game. How about the fact that
- 1:42:32Speaker 1: you're looking at the NFL leader in passing yards after
- 1:42:35Speaker 1: three games?
- 1:42:36Speaker 2: And leaping in the air and ruled a catch and
- 1:42:39Speaker 2: a fantastic throw.
- 1:42:40Speaker 1: And he could pile up more yards, being he's facing
- 1:42:43Speaker 1: a Lions secondary last in passing yards per game allowed
- 1:42:47Speaker 1: after three weeks. That gave up over 300 yards to
- 1:42:50Speaker 1: Geno Smith, didn't pick him off. Three TDs over 8.5
- 1:42:53Speaker 1: yards per attempt, a rating allowed close to 130.
- 1:42:56Speaker 13: Loads it up, throws down the seam, it is caught!
- 1:43:00Speaker 1: Detroit's defense allowing 24-plus points to each team they've faced.
- 1:43:04Speaker 1: 24 to New York, 6 for 12 on third down.
- 1:43:07Speaker 20: And Geno's going to take a shot one-on-one.
- 1:43:10Speaker 11: Receiver completed the process of the catch in the end zone.
- 1:43:14Speaker 3: It is a touchdown.
- 1:43:15Speaker 1: Their pass rush does come in off its best shopping trip.
- 1:43:18Speaker 1: Five bags full of Geno, DJ Wanham with two sacks,
- 1:43:22Speaker 1: a nice 40% pressure rate without blitzing much.
- 1:43:25Speaker 20: Now four-man rush, getting to Geno Smith, back-to-back sacks, and
- 1:43:29Speaker 20: it's number two of the day for DJ Wanaba.
- 1:43:32Speaker 1: Young got taken down three times by the Browns, did
- 1:43:35Speaker 1: throw 48 times, but got pressured 51% of his attempts.
- 1:43:40Speaker 1: Left tackle Rasheed Walker gave up a fat 18% pressure rate,
- 1:43:44Speaker 1: along with nine pressures. Right tackle Monroe Freeling gave up
- 1:43:47Speaker 1: another sack. That's three allowed by him in 2026 via NGS.
- 1:43:52Speaker 3: Sacks! Bryce Young back at the 19-yard line.
- 1:43:56Speaker 1: When he has time, he hopes to have Jalen Coker
- 1:43:59Speaker 1: yet another guy who was hurt. He hurt his quad
- 1:44:02Speaker 1: versus Cleveland. Xavier Liguette missed last week with a knee injury.
- 1:44:07Speaker 1: Tedaroa McMillan coming off a rare dud just 17 yards.
- 1:44:11Speaker 1: Wide receiver Bryson Tremaine led the team with 83.
- 1:44:14Speaker 3: The pass completed. It's Bryson Tremaine.
- 1:44:17Speaker 1: Bryce leaned heavy on his tight ends last week. 41
- 1:44:20Speaker 1: yards to Tommy Tremble.
- 1:44:22Speaker 2: Young will throw on the move and a catch made.
- 1:44:24Speaker 2: That's the tight end, Tommy Tremble.
- 1:44:26Speaker 1: 51 yards to Darren Waller.
- 1:44:28Speaker 3: There's a play.
- 1:44:29Speaker 2: Grab at the 48 by Darren Waller.
- 1:44:32Speaker 1: Detroit's DBs struggled with New York's tight end, who they
- 1:44:35Speaker 1: gave up 105 yards in a TD to, Kenyon Sadiq.
- 1:44:39Speaker 1: gave up 107 yards and a touchdown to Garrett Wilson, too.
- 1:44:43Speaker 1: Crazy TD catch. Cornerback Roger McCreary allowing a touchdown and
- 1:44:47Speaker 1: 83 yards. Linebacker Jack Campbell giving up 72 yards per
- 1:44:51Speaker 1: next gen. But he and their front handled the run well,
- 1:44:55Speaker 1: held the Jets to 58 yards, holding Breeze Hall to
- 1:44:57Speaker 1: 2-5 a carry.
- 1:44:58Speaker 20: Hall, nothing there.
- 1:44:59Speaker 3: That is good penetration.
- 1:45:01Speaker 1: Now they eye Chuba Hubbard, 82 yards versus Cleveland, 4-3 per.
- 1:45:06Speaker 1: 4-3 or better every game so far.
- 1:45:09Speaker 2: It's Hubbard inside the fourie and he's grinding now.
- 1:45:13Speaker 1: New Orleans Saints at home week four. Feisty team, but
- 1:45:17Speaker 1: still in the learning phase. Last week, they were kind
- 1:45:19Speaker 1: of like Eric Foreman when he had Laurie dead to
- 1:45:22Speaker 1: rights with that teacher. Oh my God, Mom, I mean
- 1:45:24Speaker 1: she was right in the crosshairs. Saints need to listen
- 1:45:27Speaker 1: to Kitty. If you ever get that opportunity again, pull
- 1:45:30Speaker 1: the trigger.
- 1:45:31Speaker 6: Here's Johnson, who lost the ball with a stiff arm,
- 1:45:34Speaker 6: still on the carpets!
- 1:45:37Speaker 3: Eric Stokes on top! A fumble recovered by the Raiders!
- 1:45:41Speaker 1: If it's not clear, up 27-16, and then they just
- 1:45:44Speaker 1: started giving it up for free. Atlanta Falcons on the
- 1:45:48Speaker 1: road again, but hey, they should look forward to popping
- 1:45:51Speaker 1: in some more, Willie. They had a good time away
- 1:45:53Speaker 1: from home last week. Apparently, it's a lot easier to
- 1:45:56Speaker 1: look good when your quarterback isn't working against you.
- 1:45:59Speaker 17: Welcome back, Michael Penix. I know at first Rise Up
- 1:46:02Speaker 17: was like, oh no, this doesn't look any better at all.
- 1:46:04Speaker 17: But hey man, Penix just needed a little warm-up time,
- 1:46:06Speaker 17: knock the rush off if you will.
- 1:46:19Speaker 1: When he walked off Lambeau, had his fist in the
- 1:46:21Speaker 1: sky Bender style. Don't you forget about me. Fans calling
- 1:46:26Speaker 1: his name as he rolls in off a nice 250
- 1:46:29Speaker 1: plus yard game that saw him go for over 10
- 1:46:32Speaker 1: yards per attempt and a 100 plus rate through his
- 1:46:35Speaker 1: first TD of the season.
- 1:46:36Speaker 17: Penix throws and it is juggled and caught by Hooper.
- 1:46:41Speaker 1: London wasn't just calling to faraway towns. He was calling
- 1:46:45Speaker 1: to Pennix on the regular, and he answered. Drake, loving
- 1:46:48Speaker 1: having Pennix back. After ho-hum weeks one and two, he
- 1:46:51Speaker 1: heads into week three off a 194-yard outburst.
- 1:46:56Speaker 17: And it's caught, and what a night that continues for
- 1:47:00Speaker 17: Drake London.
- 1:47:01Speaker 1: Not one other Falcon had 20 receiving yards versus Green Bay,
- 1:47:04Speaker 1: but maybe just throwing to one main guy could work again.
- 1:47:08Speaker 1: because they face an Orleans defense that knew the quarterback
- 1:47:10Speaker 1: was going to one guy most of the time, and
- 1:47:13Speaker 1: they didn't do anything to stop it from happening.
- 1:47:15Speaker 9: They let Kirk.
- 1:47:16Speaker 1: Cousins connect with Brock Bowers over and over and over again.
- 1:47:21Speaker 1: gave up 10 catches to him, 116 yards and a TD.
- 1:47:25Speaker 1: He saw 13 targets when nobody else saw five. Let
- 1:47:28Speaker 1: Cousins go for 248 yards, three touchdowns, didn't pick him
- 1:47:32Speaker 1: off for a 119 rating.
- 1:47:34Speaker 6: The sideline and Bowers wins this one. Mets up against McKinstry.
- 1:47:39Speaker 1: Defense in turn that Atlanta is looking at gave up
- 1:47:41Speaker 1: 35 points. They've given up 31-plus in two of three games.
- 1:47:46Speaker 3: He slips through! Houdini's his way down the sideline! And
- 1:47:50Speaker 3: the rookie Washington!
- 1:47:52Speaker 1: Chase Young does continue to be a problem, though. Saints
- 1:47:55Speaker 1: dropped Cousins three times, Chase dropping him twice. He now
- 1:47:59Speaker 1: has three and a half sacks on the season.
- 1:48:01Speaker 6: Veteran quarterback will throw! He's hit by Young! Ball out,
- 1:48:05Speaker 6: but Hayward grabs!
- 1:48:06Speaker 1: Falcons O-line didn't let Pennix get sacked once on his
- 1:48:09Speaker 1: 25 pass attempts. They faced a 40% blitz rate. and
- 1:48:13Speaker 1: only allowed a meager 20% pressure rate. That's nothing. They
- 1:48:17Speaker 1: also helped open up lanes for Mr. Robinson, not the
- 1:48:20Speaker 1: one who escaped through the window when somebody came knocking,
- 1:48:22Speaker 1: but Bijan was just as elusive week three. Also coming
- 1:48:26Speaker 1: off a monster showing, two TDs, 194 yards on 6'7
- 1:48:31Speaker 1: to carry, cue the middle schooler giggling, has popped at
- 1:48:34Speaker 1: 4.5 plus back-to-back games now.
- 1:48:37Speaker 3: Give it to them. Cuts it back. Touchdown. Man, they
- 1:48:41Speaker 3: talk about him cutting back.
- 1:48:44Speaker 1: Dude likes the spotlight. That's his third game with 200
- 1:48:47Speaker 1: plus scrimmage yards in prime time. First guy with that
- 1:48:50Speaker 1: many before turning 25. And the B-Rob squared rush attack
- 1:48:55Speaker 1: is looking great. Brian hit at five per on his
- 1:48:58Speaker 1: 10 tries. He's been at four, six or better two straight.
- 1:49:01Speaker 3: Quick snap.
- 1:49:02Speaker 17: Hand off, through the left side, touchdown, Brian Robinson.
- 1:49:08Speaker 1: Saints play versus the run. On one hand, they let
- 1:49:11Speaker 1: Mike Washington get away for a 36-yard run. They let
- 1:49:14Speaker 1: Bijon get away, and that could be a 72-yarder. But
- 1:49:17Speaker 1: on the other hand, they held Ashton Gentry to 2.9
- 1:49:20Speaker 1: yards per carry. And he was the main guy they
- 1:49:23Speaker 1: dealt with all game, so they'd take more of that. Saints'
- 1:49:32Speaker 1: own run game is now back in the hands of
- 1:49:34Speaker 1: Alvin Kamara. Travis Achan's going to miss time hurt. Kamara
- 1:49:38Speaker 1: ran nine times versus Vegas, four per run. Kendra Miller
- 1:49:42Speaker 1: will see a bump in.
- 1:49:43Speaker 3: Action, too.
- 1:49:44Speaker 1: Tyler Shuck broke off a 36-yard run last week that
- 1:49:47Speaker 1: helped boost New Orleans' rush total all the way up
- 1:49:50Speaker 1: to 148 by the time the game was over.
- 1:49:53Speaker 6: Off and running, Tyler Shuck with so much pace! All
- 1:49:58Speaker 6: the way towards the 30!
- 1:50:00Speaker 1: Shuck hits this contest off a career-high 4TD game, too.
- 1:50:04Speaker 1: rate over 100, over 250 yards, still looking very much
- 1:50:08Speaker 1: like the answer to their QB position.
- 1:50:11Speaker 6: Again with time, floats, a lobby, and a first down,
- 1:50:14Speaker 6: and gets out of bounds, the perfect duo.
- 1:50:18Speaker 1: Shock, 250 plus yards in each game so far, Saints
- 1:50:21Speaker 1: offense at least 24 points in each game, 27 in
- 1:50:25Speaker 1: their week three loss still looking good on third down
- 1:50:28Speaker 1: and in the red zone nine for 15 moving the
- 1:50:30Speaker 1: sticks perfect four for four inside the 20.
- 1:50:34Speaker 6: Shock fires right on target touchdown no offense.
- 1:50:40Speaker 1: Atlanta's defense back on track after a rough week two
- 1:50:43Speaker 1: versus Carolina and amazing how much it helps when you're
- 1:50:46Speaker 1: not battling your own offense. Held Green Bay to 14 points,
- 1:50:50Speaker 1: so have held two of their three opponents to fewer
- 1:50:52Speaker 1: than 21 points. They also hit this game off a
- 1:50:55Speaker 1: good enough showing versus the pass, gave up over 300
- 1:50:59Speaker 1: yards to Jordan Love, but he threw 53 times. They
- 1:51:02Speaker 1: held him under six yards per attempt, picked him off
- 1:51:05Speaker 1: for a mid-70s rate.
- 1:51:06Speaker 17: Meanwhile, that is intercepted, and this time, watch. To put
- 1:51:10Speaker 17: a Final ribbon on this baby.
- 1:51:13Speaker 1: Secondary Shuck takes on, gave up 96 yards and a
- 1:51:16Speaker 1: TD to Christian Watson, 100 yards and a touchdown to
- 1:51:19Speaker 1: Matthew Golden. Next-gen stats tagged cornerback Mike Hughes with a
- 1:51:23Speaker 1: touchdown allowed and a team high 89 yards. He gave
- 1:51:26Speaker 1: up 67 the week before, so trying to re-find his groove.
- 1:51:30Speaker 1: Four guys see most of Shuck's throws. Devon Bailey, 39
- 1:51:34Speaker 1: yards last week. Chris Olave, of course, plenty capable of
- 1:51:38Speaker 1: taking advantage of Atlanta's giving up all those yards to
- 1:51:41Speaker 1: Watson and Golden. Olave, 107 last week, 86-plus in all
- 1:51:46Speaker 1: three games, 100-plus twice.
- 1:51:48Speaker 3: Right on cue, two feet down, yes sir.
- 1:51:52Speaker 1: Noah Fant caught two of Shuck's touchdowns.
- 1:51:54Speaker 3: They're tied in, why not? It's Fant!
- 1:51:57Speaker 6: And Fant strutting by the pylon, he's rolled short.
- 1:52:01Speaker 3: No, give him a touchdown!
- 1:52:02Speaker 1: And fellow tight end Jawan Johnson, the recipient of his
- 1:52:05Speaker 1: other two TDs, went for 53 yards as well.
- 1:52:08Speaker 6: And this time a throw. Shaq finds Johnson. The tight
- 1:52:12Speaker 6: end makes one miss to the sideline.
- 1:52:16Speaker 1: Atlanta's pass rush only came up with one sack on
- 1:52:18Speaker 1: those 50-plus attempts. Still, how about pressuring him over 40%
- 1:52:23Speaker 1: of the time and they barely blitzed? They have a
- 1:52:26Speaker 1: 40-plus percent pressure rate through Week 3, have only sent
- 1:52:29Speaker 1: 5-plus 19% of the time. That's a nice ratio if
- 1:52:33Speaker 1: they can keep it up.
- 1:52:34Speaker 17: Second down, 10. Love tries to escape, and then gets
- 1:52:39Speaker 17: taken down from behind nicely by Cameron Thomas.
- 1:52:43Speaker 1: Shuck only took two sacks on 42 pass attempts versus Vegas,
- 1:52:47Speaker 1: faced pressure less than 20% of the time, which is nothing, basically. However,
- 1:52:52Speaker 1: he lost two fumbles on those sacks. Saints turned the
- 1:52:56Speaker 1: ball over four times to the Raiders. improved ball security
- 1:53:00Speaker 1: at the top of their honey-do list this week. Falcons
- 1:53:10Speaker 1: defenders should be fresh when facing the run they had
- 1:53:13Speaker 1: last week off. They only faced nine Packers runs, 1.9
- 1:53:18Speaker 1: yards per carry allowed. They've held each team faced to
- 1:53:21Speaker 1: fewer than 70 rush yards.
