• 0:00
  Speaker 1: Hello, everybody, and welcome to week one of the NFL season.
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: I am Game Preview Guy, every bit as real as
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: Dajon Love. Wait, I don't know if that's the best
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: way to really convince people I'm not AI, but hey man,
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: I feel kind of proud the NFL had to release
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: a statement about me, letting everybody know that I am
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: human and have been previewing games for like a decade now.
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: But to the business at hand, each preview will center
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: on 10 storylines you can watch for in each game,
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: It doesn't mean those are the only storylines. You get it, right?
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: Stoked the season is back. Hope it goes well for
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: you and whichever team you rep. Time to run it back.
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: They were the last two standing to end the 2025 season.
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: They're the first two to start the 2026 slate. New
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: England Patriots head to the Northwest to start the year
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: hungry for a little revenge.
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: Warriors!
• 0:53
  Speaker 3: Come out to play!
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: The reigning champs await. Just beware, the dark side reigned
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: in the sequel of the original trilogy. Seattle Seahawks ready
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: to open their defense of their crown they wear. Pats
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: should know when most folks show up to Lumen, they
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: don't remember how rough it was the last time they
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: were there.
• 1:14
  Speaker 4: That sun that went down.
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: That darkness coming. They know. They know.
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: Hawks defense led the way to their Super Bowl victory
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: from start to finish last year. Never saw Darth Vader
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: with a hangover, but Super Bowl champs often suffer them.
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: Will Seattle's defense, which was first in points per game
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: allowed and on third down last year.
• 1:34
  Speaker 4: Finish it our way.
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: Finish it our way. They don't get nothing.
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: Pick up where they left off and be just as dominant.
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: If they can't score, they can't win, huh?
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: Drake May looked like Luke and Empire against them in
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: the Super Bowl. Storyline number two, he threw two picks
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: and finished with a sub-80 rate versus Seattle.
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: Pull on the ball! Pull on the ball! Midfield, Julian Love!
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: Didn't have a cutoff hand or anything, but there was
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: talk of a bum shoulder in the aftermath. Kidd had
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: an MVP-worthy regular season.
• 2:04
  Speaker 5: Drake May often compared to Tom Brady, the second-team All-Pro
• 2:08
  Speaker 5: quarterback in a second season.
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: So does he pull a Return of the Jedi and
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: best Seattle's defense in the next chapter or struggle again?
• 2:15
  Speaker 6: Have a little fun, you hear me?
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: It's okay to smile.
• 2:18
  Speaker 7: Yes, sir.
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: May has some new amigos to get acquainted with. The
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: most prominent, A.J. Brown, who replaces Stephon Diggs as May's go-to.
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: Our third storyline, what does the May-Brown connection look like
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: out of the gate?
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: Quarter to 10, in for the touchdown!
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: Brown is basically a perennial thousand-yard-a-year guy, and if he's
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: interested enough to put down Orwell's 1984, he can pop
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: for a lot more than just a K.
• 2:44
  Speaker 5: It's Brown across the 25, across the 30.
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: Brown isn't the only pass catcher making his Pats debut.
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: Romeo Dobbs puts on the red, white, and blue for
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: the first time in a regular season game after going
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: for over 700 yards wearing green and yellow last year.
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: Slammed down a six-pack of TDs, too. At number four, though,
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: the Spoon man versus the librarian won't be every snap,
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: but when Devin Witherspoon does cover Brown, it's a heavyweight battle.
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: Fires to the end zone. Almost intercepted.
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: Spoon, second team All-Pro in 2025, has established himself as
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: elite in the cornerback world. And even when Brown isn't
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: being covered by Witherspoon, he's going to be looking at
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: either corner Josh Jobe or Nick Amonwuri, who is hoping
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: to play week one, but his status was uncertain at
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: the time this was being put together due to his
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: ankle injury. So keep track on news about him. Safety,
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: Julian Love backing them up. The one change, their other
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: starter at safety, Kobe Bryant, he departed. So, we're going
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: to see more snaps out of Tai Okada.
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: Okada is going to blitz, and he gets the stride
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: and brings it down!
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: If their back end is just as hard to get
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: open against, Maywell need more time, which he didn't often
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: have last year due to some problematic O-line play. He
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: took a lot of sacks.
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: Back at the New England 45-yard line.
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: So New England made changes up front. How their new
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: look O-line fares comes in at number five.
• 4:26
  Speaker 7: Great job, man.
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: Great job.
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: Guard Jared Wilson struggled at guard. He's moving to center,
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: replacing Garrett Bradbury. They signed former Jet Elijah Vera Tucker
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: to take his place at guard, and they drafted tackle
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: Caleb Lomu with their first pick.
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: Great job, fellas. Great job, fellas. Come on.
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: This is the one right here. Seattle's pass rush will
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: test them plenty, too. Demarcus Lawrence, Uchenna Nwosu, Byron Murphy,
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: Leonard Williams all return.
• 4:51
  Speaker 4: Play with swagger all day, boy.
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: All day.
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: And they, along with Ernest Jones and Drake Thomas, an
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: underrated linebacking duo.
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: They cannot with us. They can't with us, man.
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: Made Seattle's rush defense the hardest to run on. They
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: were number one in yards per carry allowed.
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: Everything you got.
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: So, New England's revamped line will also have to see
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: how much room they can supply Ramondre Stevenson and Travion Henderson.
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: Two men to beat for the 25-20, 15-10, touchdown!
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: Who were vital pieces to New England's explosive offense.
• 5:27
  Speaker 8: Seattle's offense was just as adept at putting up digits,
• 5:36
  Speaker 8: but now they have a new OC.
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: He's our number six storyline to watch for. What's the
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: same and what's different with Brian Fleury calling the shots
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: instead of Clint Kubiak?
• 5:46
  Speaker 3: I believe this new version of the Seahawks offense is
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: going to feature the tight ends.
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: Teams aren't going to know whether they're going to run
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: the football or whether they're going to throw the football.
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: Remember, Kubiak guided their offense to the third most points
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: per game in 2025. Touchdown Seahawks! Their offense was JSN
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: heavy last year. Wasn't a bad thing. Jackson Smith and
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: Jigba led the NFL in yards.
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: JSN gets clobbered, but he makes the catch at the
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: 20-yard line.
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: Teams knew he was the focal point and it often
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: didn't matter. Number seven, does he keep getting the lion's
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: shares of looks in the passing game? And that brings
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: us to another Hulk Hogan-Andre the Giant-like duel. Checking in
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: at the Ocho, Smith and Jigba versus Gonzo, not the
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: skinny Muppet, Christian Gonzalez, who covered the best most games
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: last year. He's many people, CB King. He held his
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: targets to a mid-70s rate, which is not easy when
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: you shadow as many WR1s as he did. How often
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: he gets tested depends on Yosemite Sam.
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: You're a Super Bowl champion, brother.
• 6:59
  Speaker 8: Love you, man.
• 7:00
  Speaker 7: Thanks for believing in me.
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: I love you, man. I love you.
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: How Darnold looks out of the gate slots in as
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: our ninth storyline to watch. 25 TDs, close to 240
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: yards per game, and a 99 rating in 2025. Touchdown, Seahawks, Jackson, Smith,
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: and Jigba. He will have to pay attention to more
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: than just Gonzalez. New England has last year's top free
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: safety in their secondary now. Kevin Byard led the NFL
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: in INTs. And Draymond Jones also debuts for New England.
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: Jones takes the place of pass rusher Calavon Chason, who
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: had a great year for them. Jones had seven and
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: a half sacks between Tennessee and Baltimore. They'll have inside
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: linebackers Robert Spillane and Christian Allison between them. as they
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: take on Seattle's retooled rush attack, which is storyline number 10.
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: Hawks lost Kenneth Walker to free agency, so we're going
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: to get some Emmanuel Wilson, George Helani, who was used
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: sparingly by the Hawks last year, and Judarian Price, Seattle's
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: first round pick.
• 8:03
  Speaker 7: When you think about the Seattle Seahawks offense, they only
• 8:06
  Speaker 7: needed to replace one position.
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: That's the running back position. Unfortunately, that's the most important
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: position for the Seahawks.
• 8:12
  Speaker 7: Why?
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: Because they want to run the football.
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: San Francisco 49ers may not come from the land down under,
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: but that's where they're going to open up 2026, ready
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: to squabble up with the team their faithful love to hate.
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: They meet up with the L.A. Rams where the beer
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: does flow, women apparently glow, and the men plunder and chunder,
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: eager to make an early statement that they are in
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: fact Super Bowl faves, may snack on a Vegemite sandwich
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: while they're at it.
• 8:41
  Speaker 4: Don't let them off the hook.
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: We finished the job. There's no coincidence.
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: Let's go. Starting with the Rams' new look front four,
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: which will feature at least one future Hall of Famer.
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: Miles Garrett just broke the single season sack record, then
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: gets let out of jail, traded out of Cleveland to
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: the Rams in a blockbuster.
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: And who is it? None other than Miles Garrett.
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: So how good does L.A. 's defense look with at
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: least him in the lineup?
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: There it is! Miles Garrett has five sacks today!
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: The front four, San Francisco's O-line, is having to try
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: and slow is stacked. Kobe Turner in the middle, coming
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: off a seven-sack year.
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: Breaks the sack drought.
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: Braden Fisk by his side and Byron Young across from
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: Garrett coming off a 12-sack campaign. It's as fearsome a
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: foursome as you'll find.
• 9:33
  Speaker 7: Here it's the Rams making plays as Byron Young gets
• 9:35
  Speaker 7: home for the sack.
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: Garrett isn't the only superstar debuting with a new team.
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: Key storyline number two, Mike Evans playing his first game
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: with a Niners helmet on.
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: I think the ball got away from Mike Evans. Watch this.
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: He has to take it back. away from Kobe Bryant.
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: He was dealing with a tight groin ahead of the game,
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: was expected to play but track his status. Assuming he's
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: a go, Brock Purcell newest option is a huge red
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: zone target.
• 10:03
  Speaker 4: Mike Evans, touchdown Tampa Bay.
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: Second round pick, Dajon Stribling.
• 10:07
  Speaker 9: I can't wait to see him get in the end
• 10:09
  Speaker 9: zone because I'm going to call it the Strip Club.
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: There seems to be a good chance George Kittle will
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: have made it all the way back from his injury
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: to play week one. And hear that squeaky bike? Yep,
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: Debo's back. Samuel making his 49ers encore appearance, as it were.
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: Debo fights for it. What an effort. Debo into the
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: end zone.
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: And at number three, with Evans in the fold, will
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: San Francisco's offense still be as CMC heavy as it
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: was last year?
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: He somersaults into the end zone.
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: He was handed the ball 311 times in 2025 over
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: 1,200 rush yards. Not once, not twice, but thrice for McCaffrey.
• 10:45
  Speaker 4: Caught over 100 passes for 900-plus receiving yards.
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: He's got it! McCaffrey caught it!
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: Will it be foot on the McCaffrey gas pedal all
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: game long, or will they ease off some?
• 11:00
  Speaker 4: Check is to the five, still on his feet, into
• 11:02
  Speaker 4: the end zone!
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford, our fourth storyline, led the NFL in touchdowns
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: with 46.
• 11:08
  Speaker 7: MVP!
• 11:08
  Speaker 9: MVP!
• 11:10
  Speaker 4: MVP!
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: Won the MVP, has a few more gray hairs, does
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: his age show at all? Or is he going to
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: show age is just a number and start hot?
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: It's Kyron Williams. He walks in for a receiving touchdown.
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: Stafford's fave target takes storyline number five, Puka Nakua, 16
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: games over 1,700 yards. He doesn't miss that one game.
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: He probably would have taken the receiving yards title from JSN.
• 11:44
  Speaker 8: What's up?
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: What's up?
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: 50-plus more targets than Devontae Adams saw, is their pizza
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: pie going to be heavy with puka shells again?
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: Best in the world, brother. Best in the world. Don't
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: you ever forget that one, too. Ain't nobody better than you, boy.
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: Put it on tape today. Love you, dude.
• 11:59
  Speaker 6: Love you, dawg.
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: He and Adams are a Mario-Luigi-level duo. They will test
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: San Francisco's secondary. When he wasn't chowing tacos in his
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: living room last year, he was catching TDs. He led
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: the NFL in receiving scores.
• 12:12
  Speaker 6: Stafford's O-line gave him plenty of time last year.
• 12:17
  Speaker 4: He wasn't sacked much.
• 12:24
  Speaker 2: I love it. I love it.
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: Primary guy he'll be watching for out of the corner
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: of his eye in this one, Nick Bosa.
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: Pocket collapsing. Down he goes. Nick Bosa.
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: Assuming he plays as he comes back from that torn
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: ACL that cost him most of last year. 49ers pass
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: rush had as many teeth as Mr. Herbert without him.
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: Does Bosa look the same pre-injury? Are the Niners able
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: to turn up the heat on Stafford with him back
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: in the fold? His return checks in as storyline number six.
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: The 49ers have it. It's Bosa!
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: Lucky number seven, the guys behind Bosa at linebacker. Former
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: Niner Drake Greenlaw missed the Bay Area. He's back after
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: a stint in Denver, and he'll be back next to
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: Fred Warner.
• 13:07
  Speaker 9: How we coming out?
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: How we strike this? We tattooing the asshole!
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: Who is returning after that broken ankle, will he be
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: back looking as good as usual, or will there be
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: some rust? They will test themselves against a nice running
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: back duo. In at the eight spot, LA's Blake Corum,
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: over 700 yards, over five yards per carry last year.
• 13:33
  Speaker 6: Uh-huh.
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: Run up the field, see what happens. Run up the field,
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: see what happens.
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: Kyron Williams, close to five a pop over 1,200 yards.
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: 16 TDs between the two.
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: A go-ahead touchdown for the Rams.
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: Number nine, number nine, number nine, BCB. He missed a
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: few games due to injury a year ago, only played
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: in nine.
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: Brock is going to keep it. Brock is to the
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: end zone.
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: Niners need Purdy's play to match his salary, not only
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: in this game, but all year long. What kind of
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: start does he get off to?
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: And there's Robinson! Touchdown!
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: Purdy will not only have to perform with that front
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: chasing him around, he has to beat LA's new look secondary.
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: Our final storyline to make it into our 10, Jalen Watson,
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: former chief.
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: It's going to be intercepted! Intercepted by Jalen Watson!
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: And his teammate Trent McDuffie, who was also part of
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: a huge trade, making their L.A.
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: Debuts.
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: Both guys showed out well for Kansas City in 2025.
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: McDuffie is expected to make it hard for Evans and
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: company to get open.
• 14:38
  Speaker 5: This is a pick going the other way, and it's McDuffie.
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills head south week one back to the Lone
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: Star State, debuting a new head coach, a new WR1,
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: both of whom are supposed to push the Mafia to
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: new heights in 2026. Mission simple, man.
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: Find a way to get it done.
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: They must feel like the teachers giving them a finals-level
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: test on the first day of school. They're in Houston
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: taking on the Texans in that defense.
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: One time, baby, Texans!
• 15:06
  Speaker 8: Four!
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: Leading off, Bills back in H-Town where Josh Allen took
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: a beating last year.
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: Allen in the backfield in trouble. He goes down again.
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: He's sacked by Henry. 2-0, 2-0.
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: At the hands of Houston's Daniil Hunter, Will Anderson-led pass rush.
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: They sacked him eight times in their win.
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: Gotta get the ball out. If you do not, you
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: are a dead duck against this defense.
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: Most times, Allen has ever been taken down in his career.
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: Finally brought down to the 24-yard line by Will Anderson Jr.
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: Daniil and Anderson accounted for four and a half of
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: those sacks. Are they going to pester him as often again?
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: Whoa, and down he goes back at the 24-yard line.
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: Just relentless. Who else? It's Anderson again.
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: Joe Brady saw Allen get buried from upstairs in that one.
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: Now he'll be on the sideline as the team's head coach.
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: Did Joe call it or did Joe call it?
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: Still going to be calling the plays. He was plenty
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: effective guiding Allen and the offense into Bob Ross land
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: on the regular last year.
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: And he skates into the end zone for the touchdown.
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: They averaged 28 points per game.
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: Fires into the end zone to Keion Coleman.
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: We'll see if taking on other responsibilities affects his play-calling
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: at all.
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: Tucks it, and he reaches the goal line! The beast
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: has been released!
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: Allen still looked the part of an MVP.
• 16:26
  Speaker 2: That's the Josh Allen that we've come to know in Buffalo.
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: Expected to again, but can CJ Stroud?
• 16:33
  Speaker 2: Yeah! I love you, baby. Have some fun out there, boy.
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: Have some fun. Can't wait to see you sling it, man.
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: Houston's quarterback had a rough 2025, played the role of
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: trailer a lot instead of tractor.
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: Rose to the end zone, caught, touchdown, Houston scores.
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: Led to some questioning whether he was the true franchise
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: signal caller type. Will he quiet the talking heads with
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: his week one showing?
• 16:59
  Speaker 4: Hey, we got to get better, but we take the does.
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: We got to get better.
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: Not the ones that sang Psycho Killer, but the ones
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: who like to overreact to Week 1 games. Hitting cleanup,
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: DJ Moore's debut as a Bill. Allen has Khalil Shakir
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: at wideout. Hopefully, at least, he was dealing with an
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: injury when this was put together. Didn't sound like he'd
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: miss the game, but track his status to make sure.
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: How does he score? How does he score here, dude?
• 17:22
  Speaker 4: He spun out of it and ran past the other guy.
• 17:24
  Speaker 4: The other guy thought he was going down.
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: He was like on the ground and spun out of it.
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: Dalton Kincaid, Dawson Knox at tight end.
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: It's complete to Dawson Knox!
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: But there was a sense they needed more, so they
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: acquired it, literally. DJ has put up plenty of WR1-type years,
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: kind of got bumped from that role in Chicago, but
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: still came up with some of the biggest catches and
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: some big games for them. Will he be Allen's go-to?
• 17:47
  Speaker 5: With room to run, Moore inside the 15!
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: Moore is not going to find it easy to get
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: open against Houston's secondary.
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: Picked off by Bullock. It's over.
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: Safety Reed Blankenship, former Eagle, debuts alongside safety Kalen Bullock.
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: And he scores. Boom. Get in there.
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: Backing up corners, Jalen Petrie, Kamari Lassiter, and Derek Stingley,
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: who might be the best in the biz.
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: Intercepted Stingley.
• 18:16
  Speaker 4: Across the 20.
• 18:17
  Speaker 6: 10.
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: Rock and roll. Pick six.
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: Going to see if they're just as stingy as they
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: were a year ago. And the test comes against Allen,
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: so it will say a lot if they are.
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: Stingley sticks it with a one-handed grab.
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: Those dudes don't just have Anderson and Hunter to help
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: them out either. He's back. Jadabian Clowney, back in H-Town
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: where he started his career, comes off an eight and
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: a half bag shopping trip in 2025. No, he's going down.
• 18:44
  Speaker 2: Cowboys stayed after him.
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: Of course, Buffalo could just go heavy on James Cook.
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: And he is G-O-N-E gone.
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: He slapped Houston with over 100 yards in last year's game,
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: one of several gems for Cook, who led the NFL
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: in rush yards.
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: As the Cook is in the kitchen.
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: Popped it over five a carry in 2025, so maybe
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: they just lean on their chef.
• 19:06
  Speaker 2: With that, he becomes the Bills' all-time leader. Eight consecutive
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: games with a rushing touchdown.
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: Houston's rush attack should be on everybody's radar. David Knuckles
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: Montgomery debuts for the Texans after spending the last few
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: years in Detroit. He played second fiddle to Jameer Gibbs.
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: He's expected to spark the Texans' rush attack that wasn't
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: always effective in 2025.
• 19:28
  Speaker 3: Down to the 10, down to the 5, to the
• 19:30
  Speaker 3: game zone!
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: Woody Marks should also see action, of course, looking to
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: build off a solid rookie year.
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: 10, 5, Woody to the end zone!
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: At 8, Buffalo's new look secondary, they made a lot
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: of changes. Second-round corner Davison Igbenoson and corner Dee Alford,
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: former Falcon, debut.
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: Davison Igbenoson sticking with nice coverage.
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: Along with C.J. Gardner-Johnson, who was with Chicago to end
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: last year but started the season with Houston.
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: It's picked again! C.J. Gardner-Johnson!
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: They all partner with safety Cole Bishop and corners Maxwell
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: Harrison and Christian Benford, their CB1. Who should spend a
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: lot of time with Nico Collins, Houston's top wide out
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: comes off three straight thousand yard campaigns. CJ can now
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: call himself a booty man, too, as Houston traded for Kayshaun,
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: 551 yards, six TDs for New England last year, many
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: plenty worthy of... Touchdown, Patriots! How much time CJ has
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: to find Nico depends on the play of Houston's retooled O-line.
• 20:43
  Speaker 4: Let's go!
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: Let's go!
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: Stroud didn't take too many sacks in 2025, hoping the
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: new group can fare the same or better when it
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: comes to pass pro.
• 20:53
  Speaker 2: Touchdown, Dolphins!
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: At 10, the debut of a guy they'll be trying
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: to slow down, Bradley Chubb. Dolphins' last few years made
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: the interdivision jump to Buffalo, eight and a half bags
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: last year.
• 21:05
  Speaker 6: Come on, man.
• 21:07
  Speaker 2: Come on, man.
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: Hoping to provide Greg Russo, Buffalo's sack leader, with a
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: little help as the Bills didn't excel at dropping quarterbacks.
• 21:14
  Speaker 2: Russo going crazy.
• 21:16
  Speaker 4: That's a Rousseau going crazy.
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: New York heads south to start the 2026 season. Jets
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: debuting their retooled offense, hoping to show that Cruz guy
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: isn't the only top gun in the skies.
• 21:29
  Speaker 2: Who want to fly with them?
• 21:31
  Speaker 5: Jets!
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: Gang Green will feel like Spicoli walking into history class.
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: They know that dude. They fly into Tennessee to take
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: on their old head coach. Time for Robert Sala to
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: tighten up for real. Can he take Cam Ward and
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: company to a whole nother level? What's Cam Ward going
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: to look like with a new head coach, a new OC,
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: and new pass catching options? Ward had a roller coaster
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: of a 2025. But the highs were pretty fun to watch.
• 22:02
  Speaker 2: Ward just throws an absolute seed.
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: Will there be more ups than downs versus the Jets
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: week one?
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: Crosses body to the back byline.
• 22:12
  Speaker 8: It's gone!
• 22:13
  Speaker 2: It's gone!
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: Ward didn't have a ton to work with last year. Now,
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: not only does he have Calvin Ridley, but he has
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: first-round wideout Carnell Tate plus Wandel Robinson, a 1,000-yard guy
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: with New York a year ago, Tennessee's new O.C. Brian Dable,
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: his head coach, when he put up his career year.
• 22:32
  Speaker 7: From his end zone, Ward gets it out quick, and
• 22:35
  Speaker 7: Robinson snags it in front of Robinson.
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: Tennessee's new-look offense is taking on a new-look Jets defense.
• 22:41
  Speaker 5: Yeah!
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: Storyline number three, Jets front seven, which has all sorts
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: of new cast members making their debut in gangrene. First
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: round edge guy David Bailey will have the most eyeballs
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: on him up front.
• 22:55
  Speaker 9: That's David Bailey, who was brought in as the second
• 22:58
  Speaker 9: overall pick here.
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: Edge rusher Joseph Asai, five sacks in Cincinnati last year.
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: David Onyemata, former Falcon, Tavondre Sweat, former Titan in the middle,
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: and former Saints linebacker Demario Davis all hoping to show
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: out week one. How effective those cats are depends on
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: storyline number four, Tennessee's O-line. Ward would have been welcomed
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: into Eric Foreman's basement based on how often his face
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: was in the grass last year. He has two new
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: linemen debuting with the hope he isn't left dazed and
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: confused as often.
• 23:45
  Speaker 2: How are we going to respond? How are we going
• 23:47
  Speaker 2: to respond?
• 23:47
  Speaker 4: Let's go.
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: The Jets' secondary Ward is trying to dissect has a
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: new look to it as well.
• 23:52
  Speaker 5: Defense!
• 23:52
  Speaker 2: Keep that level of play out!
• 23:55
  Speaker 4: Keep that level of play out, man!
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: Second-round cornerback D'Angelo Pons, free agent pickup Nashawn Wright, five
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: INTs with Chicago last year. And safety Minka Fitzpatrick all debut. Minka,
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: a Pro Bowler, five of his eight seasons in the show.
• 24:11
  Speaker 9: Bounces off a couple of guys, gets back up, but
• 24:13
  Speaker 9: he was down by contact.
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: Tennessee's defense also was guided by David Bowie this past offseason.
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: Ch-ch-ch-changes galore for their D2.
• 24:21
  Speaker 2: Yes, Lord. Yes, Lord.
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: Up front, Jeffrey Simmons being joined by three key newcomers.
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: First round pick, Keldrick Falk. Former Jet, Jermaine Johnson, who
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: dropped three quarterbacks in 2025. And John Franklin Myers, who
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: blew up seven and a half QBs in Denver a
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: year ago.
• 24:40
  Speaker 2: A sack by John Franklin Myers.
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: And their backside also received a lift. It's a thing
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: these days. Two new starters at corner with Cordell Flock
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: coming off a good year, playing the pass as a giant.
• 24:52
  Speaker 4: Got a bounce, great stop there.
• 24:54
  Speaker 2: By Cordell Flott.
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: Corner Elante Taylor, former Saint, who's given plenty of WR1s,
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: troubles the last few years.
• 25:02
  Speaker 4: Close to the near sideline, and that's picked off Elante Taylor.
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: Those gents will be looking to keep Geno in check.
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: Smith hoping to pull a Lloyd Christmas and totally redeem
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: himself to the Harrys and Fireman Eds of the world.
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: He kind of crapped out on the strip in 2025,
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: piled up a lot of picks. This is yet another
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: shot at a fresh start for the vet.
• 25:23
  Speaker 9: Scores the first points of this game on a very
• 25:24
  Speaker 9: nice drive engineered by Geno Smith.
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: And hey, he better show up because Jets fans would
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: love to break out their Cade Klubnick jerseys if he's shaky.
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: He won the backup job and gang green loves him.
• 25:35
  Speaker 9: Man, that's a big game by Cade Klubnick and he's
• 25:38
  Speaker 9: done that a lot in his career at Clemson.
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: Geno will not be short on pass catchers who possess
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: plenty of potential. Two young tight ends and first rounder
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: Kenyon Sadiq and last year's second round pick Mason Taylor
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: It's caught!
• 25:51
  Speaker 2: Mason Taylor!
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: Plus at wide receiver, first rounder Omar Cooper.
• 25:56
  Speaker 9: And that is Omar Cooper Jr.
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: And Garrett Wilson, a proven highlight machine and WR1 type,
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: who's looking to rebound from an injury-shortened year. Rainbow is caught!
• 26:07
  Speaker 2: Garrett Wilson!
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: And finally, the guy Smith is handing off to, how
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: might the improved offense impact Brees Hall's game? Career high
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: in 2025 cracked 1,000 yards for the first time under
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: less than favorable conditions. Now he gets to see what
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: it's like not having to face so many stacked boxes.
• 26:29
  Speaker 6: Finds a crease, runs left, he's into the end zone
• 26:32
  Speaker 6: for a jet touchdown!
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: NFC North Beef Week 1. Green Bay Packers on the
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: road to begin 2026. Cheeseheads hoping Tesla and the Beatles
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: had it right. If all you need is love, then
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: it should find a way, right?
• 26:47
  Speaker 9: Let's go!
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: They are in Minnesota. The Vikings debuting their new dual
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: threat signal caller. Hoping Kyler can get Kid Dynamite poppin' again.
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: Restore the good times to Skull Nation.
• 26:58
  Speaker 6: Hey, just so you guys know today, I am going
• 27:01
  Speaker 6: to consistently stay above the line and be a positive person.
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: In this one, lots of eyes will be on Kyler's
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: debut in purple.
• 27:13
  Speaker 2: For the giant 41-yard line, Jordan Addison.
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: His Arizona run may have fizzled out, but we all
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: know what he's capable of. Minnesota's passing attack was on
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: the anemic side last year. We'll see if Murray injects
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: life into it out of the gate.
• 27:26
  Speaker 3: Tyler Murray has to win this competition, which he did,
• 27:30
  Speaker 3: and I think it was the right call by the
• 27:31
  Speaker 3: Minnesota Vikings for sure.
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: Tied to his play, of course, won Justin Jefferson.
• 27:36
  Speaker 2: Hey, go out there and do your thing and be blessed.
• 27:38
  Speaker 2: We'll leave it all on the field.
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: How does he fare with Kyler behind center? He can
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: be downright unstoppable. In the convo for best in the biz,
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: so long as he has a decent quarterback, does he
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: get to teach us how to Dougie in week.
• 28:01
  Speaker 6: One?
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: I know he doesn't do the Dougie when he scores.
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: So spare us your AI slop comments. Everybody knows it's
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: called the floss. Storyline number three, the play of Jordan Love.
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: Love has three weak ones under his belt, has played
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: well in all three, so seems to be a fast starter.
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: Can he keep it up versus Minnesota's defense?
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: Touchdown, Green Bay Packers!
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: His pass-catching amigos are the same as last year, though
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: he doesn't have Romeo Dobbs, who led the team in targets, receptions,
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: and yards last year, in part because he was the
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: only guy to stay healthy. How will Green Bay's passing
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: attack be divvied up versus Minnesota?
• 28:43
  Speaker 2: Watson leaping grab! Oh, sensational touchdown catch! Christian Watson!
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: Last year's first-rounder Matthew Golden should get a chance to
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: make more of an impact.
• 28:54
  Speaker 9: You talk about run after the catch.
• 28:57
  Speaker 2: What a run!
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: Jaden Reed has flashed plenty of potential, hoping for a
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: healthy year.
• 29:02
  Speaker 3: Left side, Jaden Reed, touchdown Green Bay Packers!
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: Same is true of Christian Watson. And of tight end
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: Tucker Kraft, was on pace for a monster year when
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: he went down last year.
• 29:19
  Speaker 2: Hi Bailey, hi Charlotte. My wife and my daughter, I
• 29:23
  Speaker 2: love them very much. My mom's cool, I love her.
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: That bunch squaring off with a slightly new look Minnesota secondary.
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: Four of Minnesota's five key secondary members are returnees. James
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: Pierre debuts at Corner after coming over from Pittsburgh, where
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: he played the pass really well. He joins Corner's Isaiah
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: Rogers breakout 2025. He's the first NFL player with two
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: defensive touchdowns and two forced fumbles in a game. And
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: Byron Murphy, an established CB1 type.
• 29:56
  Speaker 2: I didn't miss one yet. I didn't miss one yet.
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: Will they be as tough to throw on as they
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: were last year?
• 30:02
  Speaker 2: And it's intercepted by Isaiah Rodgers.
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: How much help will Minnesota's DBs get from their ballroom
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: blitz-happy pass rush?
• 30:11
  Speaker 2: Vikings ball!
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: Wow! First-round pick Caleb Banks debuts at defensive end. Whenever
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: you can get Caleb Banks one-on-one with a tight end,
• 30:20
  Speaker 1: he's going to win that battle. DT Dominique Orange, a third-rounder,
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: does as well. They'll be up front with DT Jalen Redmond.
• 30:27
  Speaker 2: You ain't ready for that? You ready for that?
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: Flanked by outside linebackers Andrew Van Ginkle.
• 30:33
  Speaker 2: The gink is on fire!
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: And Dallas Turner, who they expect to blossom into a
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: top-tier QB hunter this year.
• 30:40
  Speaker 7: Dallas Turner sacks Michael Penix.
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: Green Bay's front seven also features some new faces.
• 30:47
  Speaker 4: It's show up and show out.
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: Lucky for Kyler, he doesn't have to run for Micah
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: as he's not healed up yet. And they don't have
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: Rashawn Gary, who was second on the team in sacks,
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: so where's the pressure gonna come from?
• 31:00
  Speaker 2: Trust yourself. Play with your heart, alright?
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: Third round pick Chris McClellan, who debuts in the middle.
• 31:12
  Speaker 10: Javon Hargrave, who was a Purple People leader last year,
• 31:17
  Speaker 10: and linebacker Zaire Franklin also puts on a cheesehead for
• 31:20
  Speaker 10: the first time, 100-plus tackle guy for the Colts last year.
• 31:24
  Speaker 3: There's that spinning ability. He's a strong player, but chased
• 31:27
  Speaker 3: and brought down. Franklin hit him once.
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: Jonathan Gannon will be in charge of that group. Former
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: Cardinal head coach makes his regular season debut as Green
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: Bay's D.C., working with five returnees in their secondary.
• 31:40
  Speaker 2: Looking for Judy, and it's intercepted.
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: Safeties Xavier McKinney and Evan Williams, corners Javon Bullard, Carrington Valentine,
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: and Keyshawn Nixon.
• 31:50
  Speaker 2: Intercepted!
• 31:51
  Speaker 6: A leaping interception by Keyshawn Nixon, and there is your dagger!
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: Joined by second-round corner Brandon Cisse, what exactly will a
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: Gannon-run Pac-D look like sans Micah for now?
• 32:06
  Speaker 2: Young throws right side of the end zone, intercepted! Intercepted,
• 32:10
  Speaker 2: Xavier McKinney! J.J.
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: Might be the focal point, but Minnesota has a beefy
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: playmaker stable. Who eats and how much? Tight end T.J. Hawkinson.
• 32:19
  Speaker 2: Former Lion, T.J. Hawkinson!
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: Plus wideouts Jordan Addison and Juwan Jennings, who puts on
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: the horn for the first time. He's gone! And Green
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: Bay can't sleep on Minnesota's two-headed rush attack either. Aaron
• 32:36
  Speaker 1: Jones hit it 4-2 a clip in 2025. To the left.
• 32:37
  Speaker 10: Touchdown!
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: Over 500 yards in 12 games. Jordan Mason over 750 yards,
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: six TDs for eight per. Along with Kyler, Minnesota is
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: plenty capable of piling up plenty of rush yards if needed.
• 32:54
  Speaker 2: Mason is in for another Minnesota touchdown.
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: So let's cap things off with the biggest X factor
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: of them all. Green Bay's rush attack, which will be
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: without Josh Jacobs. They traded Pittsburgh for Caleb Johnson and
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: have Marshawn Lloyd, rookie in 2024, didn't play last year.
• 33:12
  Speaker 4: It's caught at the back.
• 33:14
  Speaker 6: There's a touchdown.
• 33:15
  Speaker 4: The running back has it. Marshawn Lloyd.
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: Miami jumping in with Trent and Mikey and heading to
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: the Strip week one, hoping their new head coach and
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: new quarterback find themselves up 500 by midnight and at
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: least by one on the scoreboard when they leave town.
• 33:33
  Speaker 2: We didn't come all the way over here to play around, bro.
• 33:35
  Speaker 2: We didn't come to play around.
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: They get the Raiders, who are also debuting lots of
• 33:40
  Speaker 1: new faces. Vegas trying to ride some of that Golden
• 33:43
  Speaker 1: Knights magic to an opening day victory.
• 33:45
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, baby. Come on, baby. Woo!
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: Let's go with Vegas' signal caller as our lead. It's
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: Captain Kirk out of the gate. You like that, Raiders fans?
• 33:55
  Speaker 2: Kirk Cusk, the four-time Pro Bowler.
• 33:59
  Speaker 7: Washington, Minnesota, the last two years after the torn Achilles
• 34:02
  Speaker 7: did not work out in Atlanta, but he seems renewed.
• 34:05
  Speaker 7: The energy is there, the leadership, and he has the
• 34:08
  Speaker 7: experience with Clint Kubiak. They were together for three seasons
• 34:12
  Speaker 7: in Minnesota.
• 34:13
  Speaker 1: Cousins getting first crack at the starters role, leaving first
• 34:17
  Speaker 1: overall pick Fernando Mendoza in the Padawan role. With that
• 34:20
  Speaker 1: being the case, it does mean Cousins has pressure to perform.
• 34:24
  Speaker 6: On third.
• 34:30
  Speaker 1: Miami's QB now, how does Malik Willis fare in his
• 34:33
  Speaker 1: debut for the Finns and his first ever start as
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: the man?
• 34:41
  Speaker 2: And Willis decides to call his own number.
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: Back up in Green Bay past two years, Dolphins liked
• 34:47
  Speaker 1: enough of his backseat driving, they decided to let him
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: move up front and steer the wheel of their offense.
• 34:53
  Speaker 2: Willis looking to the right side. is the catch made.
• 34:59
  Speaker 1: Dolphins also have a new head coach. This will be
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: the regular season debut of Jeff Halfley as lead man.
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: He was in Green Bay as well last year as
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: their DC. He's calling Miami's defense too, a defense that
• 35:12
  Speaker 1: was bottom third in both yards and points per game
• 35:15
  Speaker 1: last year. He's hoping his guidance will lead them to
• 35:18
  Speaker 1: levels similar to Green Bay's, which were top third variety.
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: They drafted cornerback Chris Johnson in the first round, so
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: this will be his NFL debut. Same for Jacob Rodriguez,
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: who they nabbed in the second. Halfley expected to get
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: more out of his front three, who seemingly possess plenty
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: of potential to swing games in their favor.
• 35:41
  Speaker 2: It was a bad hit from the backside and sacked.
• 35:44
  Speaker 2: Zach Seeler. Come on, Rob.
• 35:47
  Speaker 1: Raiders also debuting their new head coach, Clint Kubiak, who
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: won the Super Bowl as Seattle's OC. He's not only
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: expected to get the most out of their quarterback spot,
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: but Ashton Genty as well. They believe he'll be good
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: to go despite tweaking his ankle, but track his status
• 36:06
  Speaker 1: as the game gets closer. Genty's rookie year wasn't bad.
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: He just had to grind a lot, being he often
• 36:12
  Speaker 1: got hit as soon as he was handed the ball.
• 36:16
  Speaker 1: Let's see how he fares with Kubiak's influence on the
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: offensive approach. How about Kubiak's touch on tight end Brock Bowers?
• 36:27
  Speaker 1: Bowers was limited to 12 games last year, still made
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: the Pro Bowl, scoring seven times with close to 700 yards,
• 36:38
  Speaker 1: Kubiak helped JSN lead the league in yards in 2025,
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: so what might he do for Bowers? We could get
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: an idea based on how he's used versus Miami.
• 36:47
  Speaker 2: Made the catch! Oh my God, Bowers!
• 36:51
  Speaker 1: Vegas doesn't have a JSN-level receiver. Former Viking Jalen Naylor
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: debuts alongside Jack Besch and Trey Tucker, who was the
• 36:59
  Speaker 1: team's top wideout in 2025. Open net is Tucker!
• 37:03
  Speaker 2: Underneath it! Caught! Touchdown, Raiders!
• 37:06
  Speaker 1: Back to Miami's offense. Bobby Slowik making his debut as
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: their O.C. He was Houston's O.C. in 2023 and 24
• 37:14
  Speaker 1: before being let go. Will he simply load up on
• 37:17
  Speaker 1: Devon Achan?
• 37:18
  Speaker 2: There he goes!
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: The electric back represents their most dangerous weapon. They didn't
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: add any big names at receiver or tight end, so
• 37:27
  Speaker 1: are they going to go Marsha, Marsha, Marsha and make
• 37:29
  Speaker 1: it all about A-chan?
• 37:30
  Speaker 2: He's going to walk into the end zone.
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: Any of Miami's pass catchers emerge as Malik's go-to. He
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: has Greg Dulcich at tight end, Chris Bell, and Kevin Coleman.
• 37:41
  Speaker 2: Goes deep for Coleman. He holds it in in double coverage.
• 37:46
  Speaker 2: Kevin Coleman Jr.
• 37:48
  Speaker 1: Rookie Caleb Douglas, former Cowboy Jalen Tolbert, and returnee Malik
• 37:53
  Speaker 1: Washington as possibilities. Anybody in that group worth having on
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: your fantasy team, so to speak?
• 37:58
  Speaker 7: Quick hitter into the end zone, caught for a touchdown
• 38:02
  Speaker 7: by Malik Washington.
• 38:03
  Speaker 1: Mad Max, how big a chip does he have on
• 38:06
  Speaker 1: his shoulder in their opener after everything he went through
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: this offseason?
• 38:11
  Speaker 2: Gotta practice the art of being calm. Especially in the tornado.
• 38:15
  Speaker 1: Crosby's amp typically cranked to 11 a la Spinal Tap.
• 38:19
  Speaker 2: Come on, bro. Come on, baby.
• 38:20
  Speaker 9: Let's go.
• 38:22
  Speaker 1: If there's a guy who has a 12 he can
• 38:25
  Speaker 1: tap into, he's it. Crosby will be flanked by a
• 38:32
  Speaker 1: number of new starters to the silver and black defense.
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: Former Colt, Quiddie Paye, hoping to help him pressure Willis.
• 38:41
  Speaker 1: At linebacker, N'Kobe Dean, and former Packer, Quay Walker, Vegas'
• 38:46
  Speaker 1: new inside linebacking duo.
• 38:48
  Speaker 2: Jeremiah Love, and he is my real.
• 38:51
  Speaker 7: Way Walker, the leading tackler for the Packers last year.
• 38:54
  Speaker 7: He and N'Kobe Dean, Georgia teammates, national champions, and they
• 38:58
  Speaker 7: are reuniting here in Las Vegas.
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: Rob Leonard debuting as DC on the strip. It's a
• 39:04
  Speaker 1: new look defense. Will the results look any better than
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: they did last year?
• 39:07
  Speaker 3: Three previous seasons, he was a defensive line coach for
• 39:10
  Speaker 3: the Raiders.
• 39:11
  Speaker 4: He got promoted to defensive coordinator and.
• 39:13
  Speaker 2: What did the Raiders do?
• 39:15
  Speaker 4: They went out and they got him some help defensively.
• 39:17
  Speaker 1: And we wrap it up with Miami's O-line. Dolphins debut,
• 39:21
  Speaker 1: first round pick, guard Caden Proctor. He's the only new lineman.
• 39:25
  Speaker 1: Joins tackles Patrick Paul and Austin Jackson. Those guys have
• 39:29
  Speaker 1: been Houston Tua playing hot potato with the ball.
• 39:32
  Speaker 2: Waller! Did he get his feet down? Yes!
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: Arizona Cardinals hit the road to start 2026, short trip
• 39:40
  Speaker 1: to Hollywood, the latest team hoping to prove Tesla was right.
• 39:44
  Speaker 1: If all you need is love, then maybe they're ready
• 39:46
  Speaker 1: to turn some heads. They roll into SoFi to take
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: on the Chargers, L.A. believing they're ready to light the
• 39:54
  Speaker 1: NFL up now that they have their two key QB
• 39:56
  Speaker 1: bodyguards back on the job.
• 39:58
  Speaker 4: Don't believe in it.
• 39:59
  Speaker 2: Keep believing it. Let's go, man.
• 40:00
  Speaker 1: Justin Herbert is real, too, and he's hoping to see
• 40:03
  Speaker 1: what it's like to have time to do his job,
• 40:06
  Speaker 1: which is the first storyline of 10 we have for
• 40:09
  Speaker 1: you as a way to preview this game.
• 40:11
  Speaker 2: Takes a shot to the end zone for McConkie. Caught! Touchdown!
• 40:15
  Speaker 1: Rashawn Slater and Joe Ault are back at their tackle spots.
• 40:19
  Speaker 1: They missed all or most of 2025, which really hindered
• 40:23
  Speaker 1: Herbs and the offense. Wasn't the reason his beer consumption
• 40:26
  Speaker 1: ticked up this past offseason, but the belief is he
• 40:30
  Speaker 1: and the O could be ready to charge it up
• 40:32
  Speaker 1: with those two big boys back in the fold.
• 40:35
  Speaker 2: Touchdown, Keiondre Lambert-Smith, my goodness.
• 40:38
  Speaker 1: Along with three new interior linemen, their center a second
• 40:42
  Speaker 1: stringer as they already lost their starter in the middle
• 40:45
  Speaker 1: to injury.
• 40:46
  Speaker 2: Into the end zone. He slides for effect. Touchdown.
• 40:51
  Speaker 1: What does love have to do with it? Well, Tina,
• 40:53
  Speaker 1: when it comes to the Cardinals offense a lot, Jeremiah
• 40:57
  Speaker 1: hopefully makes his regular season debut for Arizona. The third
• 41:00
  Speaker 1: overall pick did suffer a high ankle sprain. Cards hopeful
• 41:04
  Speaker 1: he'd be healed up in time for week one.
• 41:06
  Speaker 2: I'm putting him in bubble wrap and see you September 13th.
• 41:08
  Speaker 9: He's going to be a fun back to watch.
• 41:11
  Speaker 2: Very special.
• 41:12
  Speaker 1: They also have former Falcon Tyler Algier making his Arizona debut.
• 41:17
  Speaker 1: He'd be the starter if Love were to miss the game.
• 41:19
  Speaker 1: We'll all be keeping our eyes on Love's injury status.
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: How about Marvin Harrison Jr. proving his first round selection
• 41:26
  Speaker 1: was justified?
• 41:27
  Speaker 2: Left side end zone. Harrison goes up and stabs it.
• 41:30
  Speaker 2: What a catch by Harrison.
• 41:32
  Speaker 1: Same as Raylan Givens' drawing on bad guys. Harrison suffered
• 41:36
  Speaker 1: from the dreaded sophomore slump in 2025. He'd love to
• 41:40
  Speaker 1: start hot and give the Red Sea the feeling he
• 41:42
  Speaker 1: can be WR1 material just like his pops.
• 41:45
  Speaker 2: It is underthrown. but it's caught anyway by Harrison.
• 41:50
  Speaker 1: Gotta give Michael Wilson props. He was more the WR1
• 41:53
  Speaker 1: last year, underrated wideout.
• 41:55
  Speaker 2: And it's a touchdown. What a dart.
• 41:58
  Speaker 1: Does McLovin return to being a receptions machine with Keenan
• 42:01
  Speaker 1: gone again?
• 42:02
  Speaker 2: Hey, what'd you do?
• 42:03
  Speaker 1: Shark tip?
• 42:03
  Speaker 2: Shark's fin? Yeah. It was like, when you score, I
• 42:06
  Speaker 2: want you to do a wrap in the concrete. So
• 42:08
  Speaker 2: I came running over here, look at your dad, he's
• 42:10
  Speaker 2: not here.
• 42:11
  Speaker 1: Ladd McConkey was Herbert's go-to in 2024 sans Allen. When
• 42:15
  Speaker 1: he returned, Ladd had to share Herbert's attention. Dude seems
• 42:19
  Speaker 1: open on almost every route. It'll be interesting to see
• 42:22
  Speaker 1: if he's the focal point for the passing attack once again.
• 42:25
  Speaker 5: You give him a one-on-one and he gives you the double,
• 42:29
  Speaker 5: triple wiggle.
• 42:30
  Speaker 1: Speaking of focal points, Trey McBride is a good one.
• 42:33
  Speaker 1: You can make the case he is the current tight
• 42:36
  Speaker 1: end king.
• 42:36
  Speaker 2: On the goal line. Touchdown, Trey McBride.
• 42:40
  Speaker 1: More catches than any other tight end in a season
• 42:42
  Speaker 1: in history last year.
• 42:43
  Speaker 2: Holds on for the touchdown. That worked, dude. Let's go.
• 42:47
  Speaker 2: Got it back. Got it, baby.
• 42:50
  Speaker 1: Get him in the ring with Derwin James in this one.
• 42:53
  Speaker 1: That's He-Man Skeletor-level entertainment. Sit back and enjoy.
• 42:57
  Speaker 5: Hooking up for the second time today, Brissette and McBride.
• 43:00
  Speaker 1: The old cartoon version, still the only one really worth
• 43:03
  Speaker 1: your time. Speaking of the Chargers secondary and defense, really.
• 43:08
  Speaker 2: Derwin James! End the game, Derwin!
• 43:11
  Speaker 1: Will it still look as good with their new D.C.
• 43:14
  Speaker 1: Chris O'Leary, who takes over for Jesse Minter? Big shoes
• 43:18
  Speaker 1: to fill because Minter had them playing on an elite level.
• 43:20
  Speaker 2: And picked off! Ben St. Juice jumped the route.
• 43:24
  Speaker 1: He's working with 10 returning starters, so has continuity on
• 43:28
  Speaker 1: his side. They will be trying to stop Jacoby Brissett.
• 43:36
  Speaker 1: He may not have won many games. Some say his
• 43:39
  Speaker 1: stats were empty, but he made them more entertaining at times.
• 43:42
  Speaker 2: Throws deep middle in the end zone. It's caught for
• 43:44
  Speaker 2: a touchdown by Trey McBride.
• 43:47
  Speaker 1: Out-statted plenty of other top-tier quarterbacks, can he put up
• 43:50
  Speaker 1: some digits when it counts against a top-shelf D?
• 43:53
  Speaker 4: Turns around, falls over, makes the catch.
• 43:56
  Speaker 1: Back to L.A. 's offense, which is now being run
• 43:59
  Speaker 1: by Mike McDaniel. Feels like he's the micro to Harbaugh's punisher.
• 44:03
  Speaker 1: Same kind of look, too.
• 44:04
  Speaker 2: You just got too many ball guys. You can't help yourself.
• 44:07
  Speaker 2: It's awesome, man.
• 44:10
  Speaker 1: But he doesn't just have Herbert and McConkey to toy with.
• 44:13
  Speaker 1: Quentin Johnston led the team in touchdowns last year. They
• 44:16
  Speaker 1: think he'll be good to go for this one, but
• 44:18
  Speaker 1: keep an eye on his injury status as he was
• 44:20
  Speaker 1: listed with a lower body injury he suffered in practice
• 44:23
  Speaker 1: a few weeks ago. Has Orande Gadsden, too, at tight end.
• 44:30
  Speaker 1: Breakout 2025.
• 44:31
  Speaker 2: Orande Gadsden. And if you thought it was a fluke,
• 44:35
  Speaker 2: think again.
• 44:36
  Speaker 1: And Omerian Hampton, who hopes to stay healthy at running
• 44:39
  Speaker 1: back all season. Let's see what Eminem does with all
• 44:42
  Speaker 1: those dudes.
• 44:43
  Speaker 2: Touchdown!
• 44:45
  Speaker 1: And a new head coach in Arizona's case, Mike LaFleur
• 44:48
  Speaker 1: makes his regular season debut as lead man for the Cardinals,
• 44:51
  Speaker 1: has Nathaniel Hackett as his OC, Nick Rallis as his DC,
• 44:56
  Speaker 1: Cardinals added a couple of guys in free agency, Jack
• 44:59
  Speaker 1: Gibbons at linebacker, former Pat, Andrew Wingard at safety, former Jag,
• 45:04
  Speaker 1: but he's working with a lot of returnees.
• 45:07
  Speaker 2: He had it, and then he went to the ground,
• 45:09
  Speaker 2: Buda Baker ripped it out.
• 45:10
  Speaker 1: If they weren't an especially strong group defensively in 2025,
• 45:13
  Speaker 1: will they look better Week 1, 2026? and rounding things out,
• 45:24
  Speaker 1: the Cardinals tackles one who is new, Elijah Wilkerson, former
• 45:29
  Speaker 1: Falcon Manning Wright tackle, doing battle with Khalil Mack and
• 45:32
  Speaker 1: Thule Tuipulotu. They are a beast defensive end duo. Mack
• 45:37
  Speaker 1: was still disruptive despite his low sack total last year.
• 45:40
  Speaker 2: Here comes Khalil Mack in the end zone. He drops him. Safety.
• 45:44
  Speaker 1: Thule just keeps getting better year by year, bagged 13
• 45:47
  Speaker 1: quarterbacks last year.
• 45:49
  Speaker 2: Hit and dropped by Thule.
• 45:53
  Speaker 1: Atlanta Falcons launching the Kevin Stefanski era in the Steel City,
• 45:57
  Speaker 1: hoping they can steal a win in this first game
• 45:59
  Speaker 1: leading the Dirty Birds.
• 46:02
  Speaker 2: Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Let's go, bud. Here we go.
• 46:04
  Speaker 1: It's a battle of two new head coaches as the
• 46:07
  Speaker 1: Pittsburgh Steelers go without Mike Tomlin for the first time
• 46:10
  Speaker 1: since 2006. Mike McCarthy leading the team he grew up
• 46:14
  Speaker 1: rooting for, reunited with his old quarterback, hoping it goes
• 46:18
  Speaker 1: as well as it did for captain and to Neal.
• 46:20
  Speaker 7: Terrible towels are out, and a sold-out crowd at Akershire
• 46:23
  Speaker 7: Stadium is ready.
• 46:24
  Speaker 1: Starting with the beginning of the end of the Aaron
• 46:27
  Speaker 1: Rodgers era.
• 46:29
  Speaker 2: Got a great quarterback.
• 46:31
  Speaker 1: He'll be playing his final week one game. He lit
• 46:34
  Speaker 1: the stat sheet up with four TDs in last year's opener,
• 46:37
  Speaker 1: but the previous four, not the best outings. One of them,
• 46:40
  Speaker 1: the game he got hurt for the year. What will
• 46:42
  Speaker 1: his final season opener look like?
• 46:45
  Speaker 2: Has him in the end zone. Touchdown to Kalen Metcalf.
• 46:49
  Speaker 1: On the other side of the ball, Atlanta's quarterback, they
• 46:53
  Speaker 1: decided to go with the lefty.
• 46:54
  Speaker 5: A guy who has plenty of experience in the National
• 46:57
  Speaker 5: Football League and says he wants to rejuvenate that right
• 46:59
  Speaker 5: here in Atlanta.
• 47:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, the southpaw who didn't have the greatest 2025,
• 47:04
  Speaker 1: but his flashed potential as being a guy who can
• 47:06
  Speaker 1: get the job done.
• 47:07
  Speaker 2: Put it to the end zone. Touchdown, Drake London.
• 47:10
  Speaker 1: Michael, tongue of Iloa, two appendix. Preview went up on
• 47:14
  Speaker 1: September 2nd, and they hadn't named a starter. You guys
• 47:17
  Speaker 1: are plenty capable of getting it, though. This is very
• 47:19
  Speaker 1: much a tomato-tomato scenario, which is why Kevin Stefanski delayed
• 47:23
  Speaker 1: his decision. So if you're watching after they picked between
• 47:26
  Speaker 1: the two, hit the comments section and let the world
• 47:29
  Speaker 1: know if you think they made the right call. Of course,
• 47:42
  Speaker 1: if you're not watching Bijan, then you can assume you
• 47:45
  Speaker 1: haven't been watching football for the last three years.
• 47:48
  Speaker 2: Robinson is a highlight machine, can break a big one
• 47:50
  Speaker 2: off whenever he touches the ball. Here goes Bijan Robinson,
• 47:52
  Speaker 2: keeps his feet!
• 48:01
  Speaker 1: His peak rush performance in his three week one games,
• 48:05
  Speaker 1: just 68 yards, only 24 last year, but with 100
• 48:09
  Speaker 1: receiving yards. He will no doubt be the focal point
• 48:16
  Speaker 1: for Pittsburgh's defense. How many times he gets checked down
• 48:23
  Speaker 1: to could depend on how much pressure Pittsburgh's pass rush generates.
• 48:27
  Speaker 1: Cameron Hayward in the middle, With Keanu Benton and Derek
• 48:38
  Speaker 1: Harmon and off the edge, Alex Highsmith, nine and a
• 48:42
  Speaker 1: half sacks last year, led the team.
• 48:44
  Speaker 2: It's Alex Highsmith! comes up with his sack.
• 48:47
  Speaker 1: Nick Herbig, seven and a half, and TJ Watt, of course,
• 48:51
  Speaker 1: seven last year.
• 48:52
  Speaker 10: He is now the Watt family all-time sacks leader.
• 48:55
  Speaker 3: I mean, if he's going to pass my record, that's
• 48:58
  Speaker 3: one hell of a way to do it.
• 48:59
  Speaker 1: But is that guy when it comes to hunting down quarterbacks?
• 49:03
  Speaker 1: He lines up in front of right tackles, so he'll
• 49:06
  Speaker 1: be mano a mano with Atlanta's new right tackle, Juwan Taylor.
• 49:09
  Speaker 2: Boy, did Justin Fields get walloped.
• 49:11
  Speaker 1: Will Atlanta's pass rush be as effective as it was
• 49:14
  Speaker 1: last year?
• 49:15
  Speaker 2: In trouble, ball is fumbled. It's scooped up, James Pierce.
• 49:19
  Speaker 1: Dirty Birds finished second in sacks, but are forging ahead
• 49:22
  Speaker 1: without Jalen Walker, who tore his ACL. and no James Pierce,
• 49:26
  Speaker 1: led the team with 10.5 bags as a rookie, suspended,
• 49:30
  Speaker 1: signed veteran Zedaria Smith, only five games with Philadelphia last year,
• 49:34
  Speaker 1: a nine-sack dude in 2024, though, and they still have
• 49:38
  Speaker 1: Brandon Dorlis, who dropped 8.5 quarterbacks in his second season.
• 49:42
  Speaker 2: Jones can't get away this time!
• 49:44
  Speaker 1: They'll be trying to hurry Rodgers up so he can't
• 49:47
  Speaker 1: use his new receivers. He still has DK Metcalf, who
• 49:50
  Speaker 1: was kind of the only consistent pass catching threat last year.
• 49:52
  Speaker 5: Floats it out for Metcalf, elevates and makes the catch.
• 49:57
  Speaker 1: But he will be joined by Jeremy Bernard. He was
• 50:00
  Speaker 1: a second round pick in the draft. And hopefully Michael Pittman,
• 50:03
  Speaker 1: who led the Colts in receptions in 2025, but he
• 50:06
  Speaker 1: hurt his hamstring late in preseason. He's hoping he's healed
• 50:09
  Speaker 1: up enough to play, but keep your eyes on his
• 50:12
  Speaker 1: status as the game gets closer.
• 50:13
  Speaker 2: He's in!
• 50:14
  Speaker 1: He stretched the ball across the goal line! Atlanta's passing
• 50:17
  Speaker 1: attack now being guided by Kevin Stefanski, of course. Falcons'
• 50:21
  Speaker 1: new head coach will call the offense.
• 50:23
  Speaker 5: They bring in the two-time coach of the year, Kevin Stefanski,
• 50:26
  Speaker 5: who has tough, smart, physical football on his resume.
• 50:30
  Speaker 1: Jahan Dotson debuts in black and red, was with Philadelphia
• 50:34
  Speaker 1: last year. Olamide Zaccheaus is back after a few years away.
• 50:38
  Speaker 1: Former Falcon was with Chicago in 2025. This is Zaccheaus
• 50:42
  Speaker 1: finds the edge, Zaccheaus lunging! Both expecting to chip in,
• 50:45
  Speaker 1: but neither should steal too many targets from tight end
• 50:48
  Speaker 1: Kyle Pitts, who looked the part of a top-tier tight
• 50:51
  Speaker 1: end finally.
• 50:52
  Speaker 7: Oh!
• 50:52
  Speaker 2: Hey!
• 50:54
  Speaker 6: And Drake London, who has always looked the part of
• 50:58
  Speaker 6: a WR once, London has.
• 51:05
  Speaker 2: Done it again. This is an unbelievable grab.
• 51:08
  Speaker 1: We're going to see exactly what a Stefanski-led Atlanta offense
• 51:11
  Speaker 1: looks like.
• 51:12
  Speaker 2: Michael Steps shoots it down the field, London.
• 51:14
  Speaker 1: Those dudes doing battle with a new look Pittsburgh secondary.
• 51:18
  Speaker 1: Two new starters make their Pittsburgh debuts. Safety Jaquan Brisker,
• 51:22
  Speaker 1: former Bear, and corner Jamel Dean played really well for
• 51:25
  Speaker 1: Tampa the last few years.
• 51:27
  Speaker 2: Jamel Dean, touchdown Tampa Bay.
• 51:29
  Speaker 1: Will he be out there with Jalen Ramsey and Joey
• 51:32
  Speaker 1: Porter Jr.? Both guys also dealing with physical ailments when
• 51:39
  Speaker 1: this was written, both hoping to make a go of it.
• 51:42
  Speaker 1: Falcons secondary has new blood too. Avion Terrell debuts, second
• 51:46
  Speaker 1: round pick in the draft, AJ's little brother. Safety's Xavier Watts,
• 51:51
  Speaker 1: who's looking to build off a fine rookie year.
• 51:53
  Speaker 2: It's intercepted. Xavier Watts.
• 51:55
  Speaker 1: And stud Jesse Bates, the battle between them and Pittsburgh's
• 51:59
  Speaker 1: pass catchers should be good stuff too.
• 52:01
  Speaker 6: Jesse Bates, 20, 15, 10, 5, house call.
• 52:06
  Speaker 1: Rounding out hour 10, Pittsburgh's new look rush attack, which
• 52:10
  Speaker 1: now features Henkel McCringleberry, Rico Dowdle with 1,000 yards in
• 52:14
  Speaker 1: Carolina last year, and who got jobbed by that ref
• 52:17
  Speaker 1: who clearly doesn't know two pumps is supposed to be okay.
• 52:20
  Speaker 6: What?
• 52:24
  Speaker 1: He joins Jalen Warren to form what could be a
• 52:26
  Speaker 1: very sneaky good one-two punch.
• 52:28
  Speaker 6: And Warren races into the end zone for the Pittsburgh
• 52:32
  Speaker 6: Steelers touchdown.
• 52:35
  Speaker 1: Baltimore's present faces off with its pass to start 2026.
• 52:39
  Speaker 1: The Ravens, though, leaving its own recent past behind. For
• 52:43
  Speaker 1: the first time since 2007, John Harbaugh won't be on
• 52:47
  Speaker 1: the sidelines guiding the team. Welcome to the Jesse Minter flock.
• 52:52
  Speaker 4: Of everything he wants to do.
• 52:54
  Speaker 1: They are in Indianapolis taking on the Colts, who hope
• 52:57
  Speaker 1: Indiana Jones can hop back on the horse and pick
• 53:00
  Speaker 1: up where he left off.
• 53:01
  Speaker 2: About to be a movie.
• 53:03
  Speaker 1: Starting with, what does Lamar Jackson look like without Harbaugh
• 53:06
  Speaker 1: on the sideline for the first time in his career?
• 53:09
  Speaker 2: Hey, let's go, let's go.
• 53:10
  Speaker 4: Let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go.
• 53:12
  Speaker 1: Declan Doyle, his new OC. Lamar missed time last year hurt.
• 53:16
  Speaker 1: Season was a little clunky.
• 53:18
  Speaker 5: Ah.
• 53:23
  Speaker 1: How does Doyle employ him versus Indy out of the gate?
• 53:26
  Speaker 1: More arm, more legs, a couple scoops of each maybe?
• 53:32
  Speaker 1: What's a Declan Lamar offense actually look like?
• 53:36
  Speaker 2: You can't coach that. You can't teach that. You can't
• 53:39
  Speaker 2: stop that.
• 53:40
  Speaker 1: Batting second, Indy's offense, which will have Daniel Jones back
• 53:44
  Speaker 1: behind center.
• 53:45
  Speaker 2: Great throw by Danny Dimes.
• 53:47
  Speaker 1: Colts offense was torching defenses last year until they lost
• 53:51
  Speaker 1: DJ to injury.
• 53:52
  Speaker 5: It is.
• 53:56
  Speaker 1: They were the top 0 in points per game for
• 53:58
  Speaker 1: the first half of 2025. And the Colts now have
• 54:01
  Speaker 1: 40 points for the second time this season. Will they
• 54:05
  Speaker 1: just pick back up where they left off against Baltimore's D?
• 54:08
  Speaker 2: Goal line, touchdown for the Colts, Tyler Warren!
• 54:12
  Speaker 1: Jonathan Taylor, of course, was a key player in their
• 54:15
  Speaker 1: points barrage, led the NFL in first downs and rushed
• 54:18
  Speaker 1: TDs with 18.
• 54:22
  Speaker 2: Touchdown! Jonathan Taylor!
• 54:25
  Speaker 1: Close to 1,600 yards. You're the best in history.
• 54:28
  Speaker 2: Come on.
• 54:28
  Speaker 4: You're the best in history.
• 54:30
  Speaker 1: But wasn't nearly as efficient over the second half without
• 54:33
  Speaker 1: Danny Dimes. Seven straight games under 4-1 a carry to finish.
• 54:37
  Speaker 2: Big run down the far sideline. 30. He's at the 20.
• 54:40
  Speaker 2: Speed to Bird and Jonathan Taylor is right out of bounds.
• 54:43
  Speaker 1: No 100-yard games as defenses just loaded up the box.
• 54:47
  Speaker 1: How does he fare with Jones back in the mix?
• 54:50
  Speaker 2: Slits out of a tackle.
• 54:51
  Speaker 4: He's at the 20. He's at the 10.
• 54:52
  Speaker 2: He's at the 5. Touchdown!
• 54:55
  Speaker 1: This game features two beast backs, none beastlier than the King.
• 55:00
  Speaker 2: Henry to the 20. The King to the 10. Touchdown!
• 55:04
  Speaker 1: Over 5 a pop last year. Close to 1,600 yards.
• 55:07
  Speaker 1: 16 paint jobs down low. Same question that we had
• 55:10
  Speaker 1: with Lamar. What's his role and workload under Doyle's command?
• 55:15
  Speaker 2: The King to the 15. 10, 5. Touchdown, Ravens!
• 55:20
  Speaker 1: Henry almost doesn't need a good O-line at times.
• 55:23
  Speaker 2: Touchdown, Derrick Henry!
• 55:26
  Speaker 1: Not to say it doesn't help, though. The one he
• 55:28
  Speaker 1: and Lamar will be relying on has a new look
• 55:31
  Speaker 1: to it. Three new interior linemen make their debut for
• 55:34
  Speaker 1: the purple and black, a new center, and two new guards.
• 55:38
  Speaker 2: If stiff arms are bad, touchdown!
• 55:40
  Speaker 1: If that group gels, their two superstars are even harder
• 55:43
  Speaker 1: to contain.
• 55:44
  Speaker 2: Arm me up, man! Arm me up! Arm me up!
• 55:47
  Speaker 1: They will do battle with a new-look Colts front seven.
• 55:50
  Speaker 1: Their stars DeForest Buckner, Liatu Latu return.
• 55:54
  Speaker 2: That was Latu? Latu?
• 55:57
  Speaker 1: Grover Stewart does too, but they'll have Arden Keene next
• 56:01
  Speaker 1: to them. He was with Tennessee last year. And two
• 56:04
  Speaker 1: new linebackers behind them, second-round pick C.J. Allen and Akeem Davis-Gaither,
• 56:09
  Speaker 1: a 100-plus tackle dude with Arizona last year.
• 56:12
  Speaker 2: It's picked! Over the middle, Davis Gaither.
• 56:16
  Speaker 1: Jones, meantime, will be running from Baltimore's reconfigured pass rush.
• 56:20
  Speaker 1: Second round pick Zion Young. Super vet Calais Campbell back
• 56:24
  Speaker 1: for a second tour. Six and a half sacks last
• 56:27
  Speaker 1: year with the Cardinals.
• 56:28
  Speaker 2: It's Calais Campbell.
• 56:30
  Speaker 1: And Trey Hendrickson. They all make their debuts for the Ravens. Hendrickson,
• 56:35
  Speaker 1: a former Bengal, was hurt last year, was a QB
• 56:38
  Speaker 1: wrecking machine before that, as flock fans know all too well.
• 56:42
  Speaker 4: And he gets hit by Trey Hendrickson.
• 56:44
  Speaker 1: If Jones can stay upright, what does he have to
• 56:47
  Speaker 1: work with? They signed Keenan Allen, vet, longtime Charger.
• 56:51
  Speaker 2: It's Keenan Allen. That's a pretty good start for an
• 56:54
  Speaker 2: eventual Pro Football Hall of Famer.
• 56:57
  Speaker 1: Hopefully Josh Downs, who was dealing with a calf injury
• 57:00
  Speaker 1: as the opener approached. Hopefully Alec Pierce, the NFL's yard
• 57:04
  Speaker 1: per catch leader the last two years. He was trending
• 57:06
  Speaker 1: in the right direction coming off ankle surgery.
• 57:09
  Speaker 2: Pierce has got it! Catch for Alec Pierce! Touchdown!
• 57:14
  Speaker 1: And hopefully tight end Tyler Warren, who is dealing with
• 57:17
  Speaker 1: a groin injury when we put this together. Just keep
• 57:20
  Speaker 1: your eyes out on the status of their pass catching
• 57:22
  Speaker 1: group as the game gets closer. Tyler Warren has a
• 57:24
  Speaker 1: touchdown in three straight games. Baltimore's pass catcher is next.
• 57:28
  Speaker 1: They picked up receivers in the third and fourth rounds,
• 57:31
  Speaker 1: but are still basically relying on the same guys as
• 57:33
  Speaker 1: last year. Mark Andrews at tight end.
• 57:36
  Speaker 2: Caught andrews in touchdown.
• 57:39
  Speaker 1: Ravens rashad bateman davantez walker and zay flowers at receiver.
• 57:44
  Speaker 6: He's got him zay flowers touchdown.
• 57:48
  Speaker 1: Ravens flowers was the focal point most games will it
• 57:52
  Speaker 1: be more of the same when lamar lets it fly
• 57:54
  Speaker 1: let's go Colts likely to pour plenty of sauce on
• 58:00
  Speaker 1: Flowers in this one. Gardner, the big trade acquisition last year,
• 58:04
  Speaker 1: got hurt and wasn't able to contribute as much as expected.
• 58:08
  Speaker 1: How often does he shadow Flowers, and who comes out
• 58:11
  Speaker 1: on top of what is very much a heavyweight battle
• 58:14
  Speaker 1: when he does?
• 58:14
  Speaker 5: Sauce Gardner nearly had his first big impact play as
• 58:18
  Speaker 5: a Colt.
• 58:20
  Speaker 1: The Monsters of the Midway putting on their traveling shoes
• 58:23
  Speaker 1: to start 2026. The Hammond Pros. No, sorry. The Chicago Bears,
• 58:28
  Speaker 1: with their Madden cover boy leading the way, begin their
• 58:31
  Speaker 1: NFC North title defense.
• 58:33
  Speaker 2: Ice there! I told you I got it!
• 58:36
  Speaker 1: It's a battle of reigning division champs as they are
• 58:39
  Speaker 1: in Carolina to take on the Panthers, infused with plenty
• 58:42
  Speaker 1: of new blood and hoping Bryce Young is ready to
• 58:45
  Speaker 1: turn his QB amp to 11, spinal tap style.
• 58:48
  Speaker 2: We know what it looks like.
• 58:49
  Speaker 4: We start fast.
• 58:50
  Speaker 3: Here we go.
• 58:51
  Speaker 1: Let's kick things off with Caleb in the Bears offense.
• 58:54
  Speaker 1: Can he get it going early instead of late?
• 58:56
  Speaker 2: The Iceman cometh! The Iceman taketh!
• 58:59
  Speaker 1: We know their 2025 story, Comeback Kids.
• 59:02
  Speaker 2: You call them the Comeback Kids. They've been in this position.
• 59:05
  Speaker 2: It is tough. It's a postseason, but they believe.
• 59:08
  Speaker 1: Won seven games after triathlon. with less than two minutes
• 59:11
  Speaker 1: to play.
• 59:11
  Speaker 2: Caleb looking to throw. Going deep. Searching for DJ Moore. Catch. Made.
• 59:17
  Speaker 6: Touchdown.
• 59:18
  Speaker 1: But for the sake of all the Bill Swirsky super fans'
• 59:21
  Speaker 1: hearts out there, it sure would be nice to maybe
• 59:24
  Speaker 1: put a few games on cruise control in the fourth quarter.
• 59:27
  Speaker 6: Go!
• 59:32
  Speaker 1: Williams, Carolina counterpart up next. Bryce Young made progress in 2025,
• 59:37
  Speaker 1: but still had plenty of room for improvement. A stellar
• 59:43
  Speaker 1: week one performance certainly would do a lot to inspire confidence.
• 59:52
  Speaker 1: and send a message that he's him, as it might
• 59:55
  Speaker 1: be said in the parlance of our times. Storyline number three,
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 1: Chicago's beat up secondary. They have two new guys doing
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 1: the S-S-S-S-A-A-A-A-F-F- Okay, that's going to take too long. Dylan
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 1: Thienemann will be doing the safety dance for the first
• 1:00:12
  Speaker 1: time in the NFL.
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 2: Rookie Dylan Thienemann. is there to help make the stop.
• 1:00:16
  Speaker 1: Bears backside dealing with a number of hurt guys. Corner
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 1: Tyreek Stevenson was questionable at the time this was being
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 1: put together. Kyler Gordon was put on the pup list.
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 1: Safety Kobe Bryant out for a while. Former Bill Cam
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 1: Lewis will factor. Cornerback Jalen Johnson is healthy.
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 2: It's picked off by Jalen Johnson.
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 1: And rookie Malik Muhammad will see plenty of action. Guys
• 1:00:39
  Speaker 1: they'll be trying to contain in this one, Xavier Liguette,
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 1: if he plays, had a hurt foot that left his
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 1: status as uncertain when we were putting this together, Jalen
• 1:00:48
  Speaker 1: Coker and Tedaroa.
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 2: McMillan, McMillan, left corner, makes the catch.
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 1: TMAC looking to build off a great rookie year. They
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 1: didn't add any big names at receiver during the offseason.
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 3: The California connection.
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 2: Bryce Young to Tedaroa McMillan.
• 1:01:06
  Speaker 1: This is our first chance to see if holding the
• 1:01:08
  Speaker 1: pass catching hand they played last year was the right move.
• 1:01:11
  Speaker 2: He's got the 10, the 5, touchdown TMAC.
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 1: How much time will Bryce have to connect with those gents?
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 1: Chicago also didn't ask for any new cards when it
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 1: comes to its pass rush. They didn't produce a ton
• 1:01:27
  Speaker 1: of sacks a year ago. Grady Jarrett has promised to
• 1:01:30
  Speaker 1: up his game this year. They have high hopes that
• 1:01:33
  Speaker 1: Austin Booker will break out. He, though, was weak to
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 1: weak due to a groin injury.
• 1:01:37
  Speaker 2: He escapes for the moment. Sanders sacked once more.
• 1:01:41
  Speaker 1: And Montez, the one guy they know can make Young sweat,
• 1:01:45
  Speaker 1: as he's been a consistent double-digit bad guy.
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 3: He gets around him quicker this time, gets to Mason Rudolph, knocks.
• 1:01:51
  Speaker 2: The ball out.
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 1: Bears also hope they're harder to run on. Linebacker Devin
• 1:01:55
  Speaker 1: Bush makes his debut, comes off a 125-tackle year with Cleveland.
• 1:02:00
  Speaker 2: There's the former Brown, Devin Bush.
• 1:02:02
  Speaker 5: So we're already talking about a lot of speed on
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 5: the defense with some of the players we've mentioned.
• 1:02:06
  Speaker 1: Chicago's front will be going mano a mano with a
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 1: new look Carolina O-line. They drafted tackle Monroe Freeling in
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 1: the first, signed former Packers tackle Rasheed Walker, plus they
• 1:02:17
  Speaker 1: have a new center. Hoping their new group is as
• 1:02:20
  Speaker 1: adept at keeping Bryce upright versus Chicago, they didn't give
• 1:02:23
  Speaker 1: up a ton of sacks last year.
• 1:02:24
  Speaker 2: Rolling right. Now Young rolls back to his left. Eyes up.
• 1:02:32
  Speaker 1: Back to Chicago's offense, no more DJ Moore. Xavion Thomas,
• 1:02:37
  Speaker 1: speed to burn, third round draft pick debuts, joining Roma Dunze.
• 1:02:41
  Speaker 3: Oh my goodness, he's got a wide open man.
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 2: Xavion Thomas might go. Touchdown, Bears!
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 1: Luther Burden was trending towards playing, was dealing with a
• 1:02:53
  Speaker 1: groin injury, so keep tabs on him, and tight end
• 1:02:56
  Speaker 1: Colston Loveland, who took over as Caleb's go-to over the
• 1:02:59
  Speaker 1: second half of the year.
• 1:03:00
  Speaker 6: He's almost to the point now where he's saying, hey guys,
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 6: I'm going to 84.
• 1:03:04
  Speaker 1: Who gets the lion's share of looks from that group?
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 1: Does everybody get some cake, or is there a Milton
• 1:03:09
  Speaker 1: who's going to get left out?
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 2: Middle of the field, Loveland catch! Breaks away in the 30!
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 2: Loveland 20! Loveland end zone!
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 1: The ratio of cake to people is too big. That
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 1: bunch has a tough secondary to deal with as Carolina's
• 1:03:21
  Speaker 1: cornerbacks Mike Jackson and J.C. Horn come off fine seasons.
• 1:03:25
  Speaker 4: Intercepted again!
• 1:03:27
  Speaker 2: Picked off!
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 1: As do safeties Nick Scott and Trayvon Merrig. They weren't
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 1: easy to throw on.
• 1:03:32
  Speaker 4: It's a shot deep downfield into triple coverage. It's intercepted
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 4: by Merrig!
• 1:03:37
  Speaker 1: On the Ocho, the guys in front of them, Panthers
• 1:03:40
  Speaker 1: front seven, which features some new faces, the beast that
• 1:03:43
  Speaker 1: is Derrick Brown has some new playmates, assuming he plays.
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 1: He was dealing with a hurt knee late in the preseason.
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 2: Derrick Brown the hit, and DJ won him the ball.
• 1:03:53
  Speaker 1: Second round pick, DT, Lee Hunter. Outside linebacker, Jalen Phillips,
• 1:03:58
  Speaker 1: former Eagle and Dolphin.
• 1:03:59
  Speaker 2: Allen in the pocket, trying to escape and cannot. Ball
• 1:04:03
  Speaker 2: came out after he was ruled down.
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 1: And former Jags inside linebacker Devin Lloyd all make their
• 1:04:09
  Speaker 1: keep-pounding debuts.
• 1:04:10
  Speaker 2: Cook is taken down for a loss.
• 1:04:12
  Speaker 1: To walk out of this one like the Magnificent Seven,
• 1:04:15
  Speaker 1: they not only have to give Williams trouble, but they
• 1:04:18
  Speaker 1: have to slow down Chicago's two-headed rush attack, which was
• 1:04:21
  Speaker 1: pretty potent in 2025. Yo, I feel like a free throw,
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 1: you hear me?
• 1:04:24
  Speaker 9: I said, damn!
• 1:04:27
  Speaker 1: Kyle Menungai had a nice rookie campaign with close to
• 1:04:30
  Speaker 1: 800 yards rushing, 5 TDs, 4-6 a carry, but is
• 1:04:33
  Speaker 1: also on the injury watch list due to a bum knee.
• 1:04:37
  Speaker 2: Clears a path to the end zone for Kyle Menungai!
• 1:04:41
  Speaker 1: DeAndre Swift, 4-9 a pop, nine scores over 1,000 yards.
• 1:04:45
  Speaker 1: Expect them to get plenty of chances out of the gate.
• 1:04:48
  Speaker 2: I kick into the end zone for the touchdown.
• 1:04:51
  Speaker 1: Rounding out our top 10, Carolina's rush attack, which no
• 1:04:54
  Speaker 1: longer features Hinkle McCringleberry. So, Jonathan Brooks, who's been hurt
• 1:04:59
  Speaker 1: the last few years, is now Chuba Hubbard's new running mate.
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 1: Hubbard was dealing with a pulled hammy recently. They were
• 1:05:05
  Speaker 1: expecting them to be ready for this game, though. Just
• 1:05:08
  Speaker 1: keep your eyes on his status, just in case.
• 1:05:10
  Speaker 2: Touchdown!
• 1:05:14
  Speaker 1: Let the Todd Munkin Browns era begin. Cleveland's new head
• 1:05:18
  Speaker 1: coach and his squad getting 2026 started on the road.
• 1:05:21
  Speaker 1: These are not the same old Browns as they say
• 1:05:24
  Speaker 1: in the pound. They are off to Duval to face
• 1:05:30
  Speaker 1: the defending AFC South champs. The Jacksonville Jaguars looking to
• 1:05:33
  Speaker 1: show year one of Liam Cohen was no fluke. Trevor
• 1:05:37
  Speaker 1: Lawrence ready to show the world he has indeed arrived.
• 1:05:40
  Speaker 2: A lot of work put into this moment. A lot
• 1:05:42
  Speaker 2: of work. Remember one thing today. You're not alone. You
• 1:05:45
  Speaker 2: got 10 dudes around you that are going to lay
• 1:05:47
  Speaker 2: it on the line for you.
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 1: But we will lead off with Lawrence.
• 1:05:50
  Speaker 2: Fires toward the end. Caught! Touchdown!
• 1:05:52
  Speaker 1: Can he keep it rolling, rolling, rolling, Limp Bizkit style
• 1:05:56
  Speaker 1: the way he had it rolling last year?
• 1:05:58
  Speaker 2: Now fires toward the back of the end zone. The
• 1:05:59
  Speaker 2: ball is going to be caught! Parker Washington!
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 1: He looked very much the part of number one overall
• 1:06:05
  Speaker 1: pick with Cohen calling the shots. You know he wants
• 1:06:09
  Speaker 1: to get out of the gates hot as a way
• 1:06:10
  Speaker 1: to carry over all the good vibes he stacked up
• 1:06:13
  Speaker 1: in 2025. Now he fires downfield.
• 1:06:15
  Speaker 2: That ball's caught.
• 1:06:16
  Speaker 3: That's going to be a touchdown pass to Tim Patrick
• 1:06:19
  Speaker 3: of 26 yards.
• 1:06:19
  Speaker 2: Hey, unbelievable throw. I tell you, it's a big time throw.
• 1:06:24
  Speaker 1: T-Law doesn't have to worry about Miles, of course, does
• 1:06:27
  Speaker 1: have to be concerned with Jared Verse, who they picked
• 1:06:30
  Speaker 1: up in their big trade with LA, and he's a force.
• 1:06:33
  Speaker 4: Come on, hey, I need you, hey, right here, right here, hey.
• 1:06:36
  Speaker 5: One more, one more.
• 1:06:37
  Speaker 1: But sure, this is the first time we get to
• 1:06:39
  Speaker 1: see if Cleveland's pass rush will be as effective without Garrett.
• 1:06:45
  Speaker 1: How about the legendary Cleveland QB curse? Is Deshaun Watson
• 1:06:50
  Speaker 1: ready to break it? His play caller in this case,
• 1:06:58
  Speaker 1: Todd Munkin, who makes his regular season debut as Cleveland's
• 1:07:01
  Speaker 1: head coach, was Baltimore's OC last year, Munkin taking over
• 1:07:05
  Speaker 1: for Kevin Stefanski. He and Watson with the tall task
• 1:07:08
  Speaker 1: of trying to get Cleveland's offense humming, which it rarely
• 1:07:12
  Speaker 1: did in 2025, what kind of first impression are they
• 1:07:15
  Speaker 1: going to leave Cleveland's faithful when the final whistle blows?
• 1:07:19
  Speaker 5: Muhammad trying to get over to the rookie Concepcion and
• 1:07:23
  Speaker 5: unable to bring him down before he picks up the
• 1:07:25
  Speaker 5: first down.
• 1:07:26
  Speaker 1: Fourth, the return of Travis Hunter. The dual threat weapon
• 1:07:30
  Speaker 1: only got in seven games last year before getting hurt.
• 1:07:33
  Speaker 1: He's supposed to catch balls and knock them down.
• 1:07:36
  Speaker 2: Well done playing the football. This guy's got tremendous instincts.
• 1:07:39
  Speaker 1: How much does he do of each? How prominent is
• 1:07:42
  Speaker 1: he on each side of the ball in their opener?
• 1:07:46
  Speaker 2: As his first career touchdown.
• 1:07:49
  Speaker 1: Hunter is part of one of the most improved defenses
• 1:07:51
  Speaker 1: year over year in 2025. So good, they're basically running
• 1:07:55
  Speaker 1: the same 11 starters back.
• 1:07:57
  Speaker 2: Slokes fires deep downfield, and that ball's picked off.
• 1:07:59
  Speaker 1: They added some guys in the third and fourth rounds,
• 1:08:01
  Speaker 1: but it's all returnees who are expected to be out
• 1:08:04
  Speaker 1: there for the first snap.
• 1:08:05
  Speaker 2: That ball is going to be knocked away! The Jags
• 1:08:09
  Speaker 2: win it in overtime!
• 1:08:10
  Speaker 1: Their secondary may not be well-known by folks outside of Duval,
• 1:08:14
  Speaker 1: but Hunter's fellow corners Jordan Lewis, Monteric Brown, safeties Eric Murray,
• 1:08:19
  Speaker 1: and Antonio Johnson gave QBs fits all of 2025. They're
• 1:08:24
  Speaker 1: looking to show it was no fluke.
• 1:08:25
  Speaker 2: Antonio Johnson with a pick six.
• 1:08:29
  Speaker 1: They're doing battle with a new-look Browns pass-catching group, first-rounder
• 1:08:33
  Speaker 1: Casey Concepcion.
• 1:08:35
  Speaker 5: Watson threads the needle, just shy of the sticks. Catch
• 1:08:37
  Speaker 5: is made by the rookie Casey Concepcion.
• 1:08:40
  Speaker 1: And second rounder Denzel Boston, both making their regular season debuts.
• 1:08:44
  Speaker 5: That's a completion to the aforementioned rookie Denzel Boston.
• 1:08:48
  Speaker 1: Paired with Jerry Judy, the vet of the bunch.
• 1:08:51
  Speaker 2: Jerry Judy! And he's off!
• 1:08:55
  Speaker 1: And tight end Harold Fannin Jr., who put up a
• 1:08:57
  Speaker 1: great rookie year. How does the target pie get split
• 1:09:01
  Speaker 1: up between those dudes? Brown's offensive line will be on
• 1:09:07
  Speaker 1: many fans' minds as they have five new starters, four
• 1:09:10
  Speaker 1: of whom weren't on the team last year. First-round pick
• 1:09:13
  Speaker 1: Spencer Fano will be at left tackle. Former Texan Titus
• 1:09:16
  Speaker 1: Howard at right tackle. They have a new guard and center, too.
• 1:09:20
  Speaker 1: They need to gel right away if their playmakers are
• 1:09:23
  Speaker 1: going to have a chance to do their thing.
• 1:09:24
  Speaker 6: Inside the 30, it hit another home run ball to Ivey.
• 1:09:29
  Speaker 1: Fano and Howard versus Trayvon Walker and Josh Hines-Allen. That's
• 1:09:33
  Speaker 1: a tag team matchup to eyeball.
• 1:09:35
  Speaker 2: Biggest defensive play of the day for Jacksonville.
• 1:09:38
  Speaker 1: Walker is a force despite his low sack total last year.
• 1:09:42
  Speaker 1: Hines Allen, Jacksonville's all-time sack leader. Team didn't have a
• 1:09:46
  Speaker 1: ton of bags last season. See if they can rack
• 1:09:48
  Speaker 1: up a few on their opening shopping trip.
• 1:09:50
  Speaker 2: Josh Hines Allen got him!
• 1:09:52
  Speaker 1: They will also need to keep track of Quinshawn Judkins.
• 1:09:55
  Speaker 1: Nice rookie season for him despite having to grind behind
• 1:09:58
  Speaker 1: that line.
• 1:09:59
  Speaker 2: Go, buddy!
• 1:09:59
  Speaker 7: Go, buddy!
• 1:10:02
  Speaker 1: He's another guy who's supposed to have a bigger impact
• 1:10:04
  Speaker 1: if their line is better. Super powerful, explosive kid.
• 1:10:09
  Speaker 4: We the best rookie class.
• 1:10:10
  Speaker 2: Nah, for sure. Overly.
• 1:10:13
  Speaker 4: Overly.
• 1:10:13
  Speaker 2: Overly, for sure.
• 1:10:14
  Speaker 1: His counterpart, Basial Tootin, who takes over as RB1 for Jacksonville.
• 1:10:19
  Speaker 1: Jags let Travis Achan depart, handing the reins to Tootin.
• 1:10:23
  Speaker 1: Achan had a good year for them, so Tootin has
• 1:10:25
  Speaker 1: some semi-big shoes to fill.
• 1:10:27
  Speaker 2: They handed to Tootin, lowered the shoulder into the end zone.
• 1:10:30
  Speaker 2: He walked into the end zone.
• 1:10:33
  Speaker 1: New Orleans Saints take to the road to kick off
• 1:10:35
  Speaker 1: 2026 off to the Motor City. Year two of Kellen Moore,
• 1:10:39
  Speaker 1: Tyler Shuck, hoping some of last year's late season mojo
• 1:10:43
  Speaker 1: rolls over.
• 1:10:44
  Speaker 2: Be selfish. Do it for yourself.
• 1:10:47
  Speaker 4: And then do it for everyone around you.
• 1:10:49
  Speaker 2: Let's go. Love it.
• 1:10:49
  Speaker 1: Detroit at home for week one. The Lion Kings looking
• 1:10:53
  Speaker 1: to get off on the right foot so they can
• 1:10:54
  Speaker 1: show last season was nothing more than a stumble on
• 1:10:57
  Speaker 1: their quest to claim the throne. 226 regular season is
• 1:11:03
  Speaker 1: here which means game preview guy is here save your
• 1:11:07
  Speaker 1: AI slop comments as that would make your comments slop
• 1:11:11
  Speaker 1: We don't use it in any way shape or form
• 1:11:13
  Speaker 1: on these previews. Don't really know how it works. Oh
• 1:11:18
  Speaker 1: clean slates for all so we'll navigate this preview by
• 1:11:22
  Speaker 1: looking at 10 storylines worth keeping your eyes on as
• 1:11:25
  Speaker 1: the game unfolds like just how big a workload will
• 1:11:29
  Speaker 1: sonic get without knuckles to spell him.
• 1:11:32
  Speaker 2: You got no shot at catching that man 10-5.
• 1:11:35
  Speaker 1: End zone Jameer Gibbs comes off a monster year. And
• 1:11:41
  Speaker 1: that was with sharing touches with David Montgomery, who is
• 1:11:44
  Speaker 1: no longer with the team. More Gibbs could mean the
• 1:11:47
  Speaker 1: same as coming across more money if you're New Orleans defense.
• 1:11:51
  Speaker 2: It was said it just means the more problems you'll see.
• 1:12:02
  Speaker 1: Next up, Tyler Shuck, Saints second-year quarterback hoping to kick
• 1:12:06
  Speaker 1: off 2026 with a bang.
• 1:12:08
  Speaker 2: Let's go. Let's go. Let's drive it down, baby. Let's
• 1:12:10
  Speaker 2: drive it down.
• 1:12:11
  Speaker 1: He looked pretty good late last year, providing hope New
• 1:12:14
  Speaker 1: Orleans may have their guy at quarterback. Can he carry
• 1:12:26
  Speaker 1: over that momentum into week one? Unfortunately, they don't have
• 1:12:32
  Speaker 1: wide receiver Jordan Tyson, their first rounder. So who else
• 1:12:36
  Speaker 1: other than Chris Olave steps up? Olave's great, but he's
• 1:12:39
  Speaker 1: the only wideout they have with much of a resume.
• 1:12:42
  Speaker 2: Chris Olave! Touchdown, New Orleans!
• 1:12:47
  Speaker 1: Tight end Juwan Johnson was New Orleans' second most productive
• 1:12:49
  Speaker 1: pass catcher last year, so he could see plenty of
• 1:12:52
  Speaker 1: looks with Tyson out. They may need to light the
• 1:13:00
  Speaker 1: scoreboard up to keep up with Detroit's typically high-powered O.
• 1:13:07
  Speaker 1: In the cleanup spot, are we going to get the
• 1:13:09
  Speaker 1: same old, same old from Goff, St. Brown, Jamo, Laporta,
• 1:13:13
  Speaker 1: and Gibbs?
• 1:13:14
  Speaker 2: What a delivery that time by Goff.
• 1:13:16
  Speaker 1: They weren't the problem in 2025. The one catch, each
• 1:13:19
  Speaker 1: of their last three weak ones, they finished with 26
• 1:13:23
  Speaker 1: or fewer points.
• 1:13:24
  Speaker 4: Once I seen them running with two, I said, it's touchdown.
• 1:13:27
  Speaker 2: We gone.
• 1:13:28
  Speaker 1: Their success will hinge in part on our fifth storyline,
• 1:13:31
  Speaker 1: Detroit's retooled O-line. Panay Sewell will be protecting Goff's blind side,
• 1:13:36
  Speaker 1: taking his place at right tackle, Blake Miller, their first rounder. Plus,
• 1:13:41
  Speaker 1: they have a new center. Time to see if that
• 1:13:43
  Speaker 1: new lineup is more effective than last year's bunch.
• 1:13:46
  Speaker 4: It only takes two things.
• 1:13:48
  Speaker 2: It's here and here.
• 1:13:49
  Speaker 1: They will get tested by New Orleans Beastie Boys level trio.
• 1:13:53
  Speaker 1: In at six, Carl Granderson, Chase Young, and Cam Jordan,
• 1:13:57
  Speaker 1: who decided to play one more year.
• 1:13:59
  Speaker 2: Hey, Cam. That's enough already.
• 1:14:04
  Speaker 1: Though he too is on the injury watch list as
• 1:14:06
  Speaker 1: he hurt his hamstring, if you see any updates on him,
• 1:14:09
  Speaker 1: throw it in the comments section. Jordan came back, DeMario
• 1:14:13
  Speaker 1: did not. What is the impact of no Davis at
• 1:14:15
  Speaker 1: linebacker for the first time since 2017? It's sacred every.
• 1:14:18
  Speaker 2: Time you get a chance to touch this field.
• 1:14:20
  Speaker 1: Caden Ellis is back, though, former Saint, 100-plus tackle guy,
• 1:14:25
  Speaker 1: the last three years with Atlanta. New Orleans held teams
• 1:14:28
  Speaker 1: to 22 a game in 2025. That was respectable. Will
• 1:14:32
  Speaker 1: it be more of the same, better or worse, versus
• 1:14:35
  Speaker 1: a high-powered Detroit offense?
• 1:14:37
  Speaker 2: But he runs right into Cam Jordan.
• 1:14:40
  Speaker 1: Detroit's defense also will roll out plenty of new faces.
• 1:14:43
  Speaker 1: Of course, Shuck has to be worried about Hutch.
• 1:14:46
  Speaker 2: Go 9-7.
• 1:14:47
  Speaker 9: Let's be great.
• 1:14:48
  Speaker 2: Let's go, buddy.
• 1:14:48
  Speaker 9: Let's be great.
• 1:14:49
  Speaker 2: Let's go.
• 1:14:49
  Speaker 1: But will Derek Moore, DJ Wanham, be riding shotgun in
• 1:14:53
  Speaker 1: that sweet Ford Gran Torino as his star ski?
• 1:14:57
  Speaker 4: Picked off by Aiden Hutchinson.
• 1:14:58
  Speaker 2: Down the right side.
• 1:14:59
  Speaker 4: Hutchinson to the 40.
• 1:15:00
  Speaker 2: Down to the 20.
• 1:15:01
  Speaker 1: And he's taken down from behind at the 16-yard line.
• 1:15:05
  Speaker 2: Great job, man.
• 1:15:07
  Speaker 1: I don't know if Starsky or Hutch drove the striped tomato,
• 1:15:10
  Speaker 1: but the guys in Detroit's secondary are also going to
• 1:15:12
  Speaker 1: be under the spotlight. Injuries really hurt them last year.
• 1:15:16
  Speaker 1: Many that have carried over to start this season. Former
• 1:15:18
  Speaker 1: Buccaneer DB Christian Izian, cornerback Roger McCreary, safety Chuck Clark
• 1:15:24
  Speaker 1: with Pittsburgh last year, all debut for Detroit in this one.
• 1:15:27
  Speaker 2: It's another opportunity, man, to play for your brother, play
• 1:15:30
  Speaker 2: for these fans, man.
• 1:15:31
  Speaker 1: And finally, back to the Saints to round it out.
• 1:15:34
  Speaker 1: Travis Achan, thousand-yard guy with Jacksonville last year. Saints' rush
• 1:15:38
  Speaker 1: attack was fairly anemic as a result. They hope the
• 1:15:41
  Speaker 1: new combo meal gets them going down low. Tampa Bay Buccaneers,
• 1:15:50
  Speaker 1: Captain Jack, aka the Baker Man, with a new Marine
• 1:15:54
  Speaker 1: pilot helping guide him and the Bucs' offense, hoping to
• 1:15:57
  Speaker 1: fire the cannons and hit some cats hiding out in
• 1:16:00
  Speaker 1: the jungle.
• 1:16:00
  Speaker 2: Fire the cannons! Let's go score 50, let's go!
• 1:16:03
  Speaker 1: They are in Cincinnati, the Bengals, still plenty equipped to
• 1:16:07
  Speaker 1: put up plenty of points, hoping all the new blood
• 1:16:09
  Speaker 1: they injected into their defense makes an early season statement
• 1:16:13
  Speaker 1: that will give the Who-Days of the world hope that
• 1:16:16
  Speaker 1: things will be different this year.
• 1:16:18
  Speaker 2: You know what to do, you know how to do it.
• 1:16:20
  Speaker 2: Expect greatness. Expect greatness.
• 1:16:23
  Speaker 1: What will Baker Mayfield look like with new OC Zach
• 1:16:27
  Speaker 1: Robinson calling the offense?
• 1:16:29
  Speaker 2: Dirty dams. Dirty Dan with a dirty mullet.
• 1:16:31
  Speaker 1: Throwing 26 TDs isn't bad, but as Trent would tell you,
• 1:16:35
  Speaker 1: that's kind of industry standard.
• 1:16:37
  Speaker 2: Inside the 5, 3, 2, 1, touchdown Tampa Bay.
• 1:16:40
  Speaker 1: Throwing 41 is kind of money, which is how many
• 1:16:43
  Speaker 1: Baker threw for in 2024 with Liam Cohen guiding their O.
• 1:16:47
  Speaker 2: Slant pass, catch, touchdown Mike Evans.
• 1:16:50
  Speaker 1: He came from the Sean McVay tree, and so does Robinson,
• 1:16:54
  Speaker 1: so will the combo elevate Tampa's O to 2024 levels
• 1:16:59
  Speaker 1: in 2026? Typically, the Bengals are the perfect team to
• 1:17:05
  Speaker 1: get right against. They don't have a new D.C., but
• 1:17:08
  Speaker 1: plenty of new faces who are supposed to restore the
• 1:17:10
  Speaker 1: D to what was basically an E-fence in 2025. Allen
• 1:17:13
  Speaker 1: steps up.
• 1:17:15
  Speaker 2: In the pocket. Allen looking for the end zone, and
• 1:17:17
  Speaker 2: he's in!
• 1:17:18
  Speaker 1: Three new starters debut up front. Defensive end Boye Mafe,
• 1:17:23
  Speaker 1: former Seahawk. Defensive tackle Jonathan Allen, a Viking last year.
• 1:17:28
  Speaker 1: And DT Dexter Lawrence, the big addition via that blockbuster trade.
• 1:17:33
  Speaker 1: Storyline number two, will they make the hoped-for impact?
• 1:17:37
  Speaker 2: Dexy Dexy, the leader of that defensive front. He'll get
• 1:17:39
  Speaker 2: a special meal from his wife Donna, who's a chef,
• 1:17:43
  Speaker 2: executive chef.
• 1:17:44
  Speaker 8: Executive chef.
• 1:17:45
  Speaker 1: In the three-hole, Tampa's beat-up wide-out room, Chris Godwin, the
• 1:17:49
  Speaker 1: one fully healthy guy, Jalen McMillan was rehabbing a bum knee,
• 1:17:52
  Speaker 1: has fallen in the day-to-day category, so they expect him
• 1:17:56
  Speaker 1: to play. Emeka Ibuka was dealing with a sprained toe
• 1:17:59
  Speaker 1: ahead of the opener, same deal. They think he's going
• 1:18:01
  Speaker 1: to be okay, but have to track the status of
• 1:18:03
  Speaker 1: both guys as we get closer to the game.
• 1:18:05
  Speaker 2: He makes the catch at the 50-yard line with one hand.
• 1:18:09
  Speaker 4: Incredible play.
• 1:18:10
  Speaker 2: What an amazing cat.
• 1:18:12
  Speaker 1: They may need to put on their track shoes to
• 1:18:14
  Speaker 1: keep up with Joe Shiesty, Chase, and Higgs.
• 1:18:17
  Speaker 2: Yes, sir.
• 1:18:18
  Speaker 4: We do this.
• 1:18:18
  Speaker 2: Get out of the way. Get out of the way.
• 1:18:22
  Speaker 1: Burrow, Jamar, and Tee are usually good for plenty of points,
• 1:18:26
  Speaker 1: but they have struggled some in Week 1 games. Hitting cleanup,
• 1:18:29
  Speaker 1: are they going to start slow again or get off
• 1:18:32
  Speaker 1: the blocks in midseason form?
• 1:18:34
  Speaker 6: Jamar Chase cutting inside of Tyson Campbell.
• 1:18:38
  Speaker 4: From the left and the Bengals have scored.
• 1:18:41
  Speaker 1: The answer to that question is connected to storyline number five,
• 1:18:44
  Speaker 1: Tampa's revamped pass rush. Reuben Bain makes his regular season
• 1:18:49
  Speaker 1: debut after being drafted in the first round.
• 1:18:51
  Speaker 5: This is going to be a big addition for this
• 1:18:54
  Speaker 5: Buccaneer defense.
• 1:18:55
  Speaker 2: Keep an eye on number three. He can play outside.
• 1:18:57
  Speaker 5: He can also go inside over the guard in some
• 1:19:00
  Speaker 5: passing situations.
• 1:19:01
  Speaker 1: And his partner in crime is also new to fire
• 1:19:04
  Speaker 1: the cannons. Al-Quadeen Muhammad makes his first regular season start
• 1:19:08
  Speaker 1: with the team. He went for 11 sacks a year ago.
• 1:19:14
  Speaker 1: Buck's pass rush didn't pile up a ton of sacks
• 1:19:18
  Speaker 1: in 2025. Those two gents are supposed to fix that.
• 1:19:20
  Speaker 7: Those dudes will also be looking to stop our sixth storyline,
• 1:19:23
  Speaker 7: Chase Brown.
• 1:19:31
  Speaker 1: Sneaky important piece of Cincinnati's high-powered offense, he scored 11
• 1:19:36
  Speaker 1: touchdowns total last year, hauled in 69 passes for 400-plus yards,
• 1:19:41
  Speaker 1: and ran for over 1,000. That was big time Chase Brown.
• 1:19:45
  Speaker 2: That was such a sick run by Chase.
• 1:19:46
  Speaker 1: He won't have to worry about Levante David tackling him.
• 1:19:50
  Speaker 1: Bucs retooled second level checks in at seven. They will
• 1:19:53
  Speaker 1: debut new inside linebackers, Josiah Trotter, second-round pick, and Alex Anzalone,
• 1:20:00
  Speaker 1: former Lion.
• 1:20:01
  Speaker 9: Ah!
• 1:20:01
  Speaker 2: Alex Anzalone, come back left side. Anzalone inside the 35.
• 1:20:05
  Speaker 1: They'll be doing battle with the Bengals' offensive line that
• 1:20:08
  Speaker 1: made strides last year.
• 1:20:09
  Speaker 2: What's up, OI?
• 1:20:10
  Speaker 1: And one made up of the same five starters. Between
• 1:20:14
  Speaker 1: Brown's effectiveness down low and a middle-of-the-pack finish in sacks taken,
• 1:20:19
  Speaker 1: they performed better than previous seasons. Will their continuity lead
• 1:20:23
  Speaker 1: to even better play, perhaps?
• 1:20:25
  Speaker 2: Touchdown! Touchdown!
• 1:20:29
  Speaker 1: Back to Tampa for storyline number nine. Bucky Irving, another
• 1:20:33
  Speaker 1: Buck who lost time to injury. He went for five
• 1:20:36
  Speaker 1: for a run as a rookie over 1,100 rush yards
• 1:20:39
  Speaker 1: to three for a run last year in 10 games.
• 1:20:42
  Speaker 1: Which version of him are we going to see out
• 1:20:44
  Speaker 1: of the gate?
• 1:20:44
  Speaker 2: Bucky Irving, first touchdown of the season.
• 1:20:47
  Speaker 1: He also has a new running mate. Kenneth Gainwell puts
• 1:20:50
  Speaker 1: on the flag for his first regular season game. He
• 1:20:53
  Speaker 1: was with Pittsburgh last year. Over 1,000 scrimmage yards and
• 1:20:57
  Speaker 1: a timeshare, eight total TDs, he takes over Rashad White's
• 1:21:01
  Speaker 1: old role.
• 1:21:02
  Speaker 4: There's Zach Robinson, coach.
• 1:21:04
  Speaker 3: You have a little bit of insight on what he's
• 1:21:06
  Speaker 3: going to try to do on offense this year.
• 1:21:08
  Speaker 7: He used two different running backs extremely well in Atlanta,
• 1:21:12
  Speaker 7: Bijan Robinson, Tyler Algier, and I'm sure he has a
• 1:21:15
  Speaker 7: similar plan with these two backs.
• 1:21:17
  Speaker 1: And finally, at 10, Cincinnati's tweaked secondary, cornerback Takerio Davis'
• 1:21:23
  Speaker 1: third-round pick, safety Kyle Duggar, former Steeler.
• 1:21:26
  Speaker 2: Short pass, nothing doing.
• 1:21:29
  Speaker 7: Kyle Duggar arrived from Pittsburgh over the offseason, makes the
• 1:21:34
  Speaker 7: hit at the line of scrimmage.
• 1:21:37
  Speaker 1: Old school beef squash. Washington makes the short trip to
• 1:21:40
  Speaker 1: the land of the cheesesteaks to start the season. JD5
• 1:21:43
  Speaker 1: back in the saddle, looking to restore order and take
• 1:21:46
  Speaker 1: command of the NFC East. Philadelphia hosting the Eagles, reigning
• 1:21:53
  Speaker 1: division champs, hoping to make an early statement that they
• 1:21:56
  Speaker 1: are still the Hank Hills of the neighborhood.
• 1:21:58
  Speaker 2: The whole world knows what we're doing. It doesn't matter.
• 1:22:02
  Speaker 1: Starting with Jaden Daniels, who will be behind center again.
• 1:22:05
  Speaker 2: Perfect throw from Daniels to McLaurin!
• 1:22:08
  Speaker 4: This guy's got ice in the veins.
• 1:22:10
  Speaker 1: Had that great rookie year, then suffered through an injury-plagued 2025.
• 1:22:15
  Speaker 1: Will he just fire it back up, or might there
• 1:22:17
  Speaker 1: be some rust to his game?
• 1:22:19
  Speaker 4: Throws open to Luke McCaffrey!
• 1:22:21
  Speaker 2: He walks into.
• 1:22:22
  Speaker 1: The end zone! What should we expect from Philadelphia's A.J.-less offense?
• 1:22:27
  Speaker 1: Eagles no longer having to worry about what Brown is
• 1:22:29
  Speaker 1: reading on the sideline. First-round pick Makai Lemon makes his
• 1:22:33
  Speaker 1: debut in his place.
• 1:22:34
  Speaker 2: I'm super excited to showcase what I can bring to
• 1:22:37
  Speaker 2: the offense.
• 1:22:37
  Speaker 1: Former Packer Dontavian Wicks puts on the winged helmet for
• 1:22:41
  Speaker 1: the first time. Hollywood Brown also debuts after spending last
• 1:22:45
  Speaker 1: year with Kansas City. It's a new-look group despite Devontae
• 1:22:49
  Speaker 1: Smith returning. It will be interesting to see how Jalen
• 1:22:52
  Speaker 1: Hurts passes are divvied up.
• 1:22:53
  Speaker 2: It is for Devontae Smith. Touchdown!
• 1:22:56
  Speaker 1: Sticking with Hurts, what's his game look like with all
• 1:22:59
  Speaker 1: those new faces? He didn't have a bad 2025.
• 1:23:02
  Speaker 7: Fires.
• 1:23:03
  Speaker 2: Complete. Touchdown.
• 1:23:05
  Speaker 1: But there was a clunkiness to it at times. Let's
• 1:23:07
  Speaker 1: see if he's back to top shelf form without having
• 1:23:10
  Speaker 1: to worry about whether AJ was getting enough action. Some
• 1:23:14
  Speaker 1: Eagles fans have said it's an addition by subtraction kind
• 1:23:17
  Speaker 1: of thing. Time to see if that's true as it
• 1:23:19
  Speaker 1: pertains to Hurts.
• 1:23:20
  Speaker 2: Hey, man, all for one and one.
• 1:23:22
  Speaker 1: He will be trying to dodge what is a new
• 1:23:24
  Speaker 1: look Washington front seven. They have all sorts of dudes
• 1:23:27
  Speaker 1: making their Washington debuts. Sonny Stiles at linebacker, their first rounder,
• 1:23:32
  Speaker 1: supposed to be a generational talent.
• 1:23:34
  Speaker 2: He's got a physical presence.
• 1:23:35
  Speaker 1: He's a former safety that dropped down to linebacker. Leo
• 1:23:39
  Speaker 1: Chennault's former chief will be next to him along with
• 1:23:42
  Speaker 1: returnee Frankie Louvu.
• 1:23:43
  Speaker 2: He has hit the mark and Louvu's got him for
• 1:23:46
  Speaker 2: a sack.
• 1:23:47
  Speaker 1: Hopefully, former Charger slash Raven Odafe Owe and former Pat
• 1:23:51
  Speaker 1: Calavon Chason from the edges, each guy with seven plus
• 1:23:55
  Speaker 1: sacks last year, each guy dealing with an injury that
• 1:23:58
  Speaker 1: left their week one a little uncertain at the time
• 1:24:01
  Speaker 1: of this publishing. Washington's secondary also has plenty of new guys.
• 1:24:05
  Speaker 1: Three new corners. Amik Robertson puts on the W for
• 1:24:09
  Speaker 1: the first time, trying to rebound from a tough year
• 1:24:11
  Speaker 1: in Detroit in 2025. Rasul Douglas played the pass well
• 1:24:15
  Speaker 1: in Miami. Safety Nick Cross debuts after spending last year
• 1:24:19
  Speaker 1: with Indianapolis 100-plus tackle dude. The hope is they will
• 1:24:23
  Speaker 1: be a tougher team to pass on compared to last year.
• 1:24:26
  Speaker 2: Intercepted! Herbert is picked!
• 1:24:30
  Speaker 1: Every one of those guys will have to help with Saquon,
• 1:24:33
  Speaker 1: of course. Barkley looking to show he's still capable of
• 1:24:36
  Speaker 1: looking like he did in 2024 when he cracked 2K.
• 1:24:39
  Speaker 1: He still cracked 1K last year. Still plenty capable of
• 1:24:43
  Speaker 1: jaw-dropping runs.
• 1:24:44
  Speaker 2: It goes to Barkley. Cross the 10. 5. Touchdown!
• 1:24:48
  Speaker 1: Will Washington be able to run the ball effectively? They
• 1:24:50
  Speaker 1: brought in Rashad White from Tampa Bay. So long as
• 1:24:53
  Speaker 1: his hamstring is healed up, he'll debut. Another dude on
• 1:24:56
  Speaker 1: the injury watch.
• 1:24:57
  Speaker 2: List, though. Rashad White gets it! Rashad White!
• 1:25:01
  Speaker 1: Joins Ja'Cory Kroski-Merritt, who also was dealing with a lower
• 1:25:05
  Speaker 1: body injury late in preseason. Bill popped for 4.6 a
• 1:25:08
  Speaker 1: run as a rookie with eight scores. Along with Daniel's
• 1:25:11
  Speaker 1: ability to run, they could give Philadelphia trouble along the ground.
• 1:25:15
  Speaker 2: Into the end zone! Touchdown!
• 1:25:18
  Speaker 6: Bill!
• 1:25:18
  Speaker 2: Kroski! Merritt!
• 1:25:19
  Speaker 1: Number of times Daniels bolts will depend on how often
• 1:25:22
  Speaker 1: Philadelphia's pass rush breaks through. Jordan Davis and Jalen Carter
• 1:25:27
  Speaker 1: make up a crazy good DT duo. Mauro Ojomo is
• 1:25:30
  Speaker 1: nothing to sneeze at either.
• 1:25:32
  Speaker 2: Taken down again. Fourth sack of the day for the Eagles.
• 1:25:36
  Speaker 2: It's Mauro Jomo who delivers.
• 1:25:38
  Speaker 1: They have Jonathan Grenard, former Viking, but he was on
• 1:25:41
  Speaker 1: the pup list late due to a pec injury, so
• 1:25:43
  Speaker 1: track his status. And Jalix Hunt, who Philadelphia expects to
• 1:25:47
  Speaker 1: really break out this year.
• 1:25:48
  Speaker 2: He's sacked all the way back. He's sacked by Jalix Hunt.
• 1:25:53
  Speaker 1: When Daniels lets her rip, it's third-round pick Antonio Williams'
• 1:25:57
  Speaker 1: first regular season NFL game, tight end Chigo Conquo's first
• 1:26:01
  Speaker 1: game as a commander, plus Stephon Diggs, who put down
• 1:26:04
  Speaker 1: 1,000-plus yards for New England last year.
• 1:26:07
  Speaker 2: Play with confidence and let's feed off each other. Gang
• 1:26:10
  Speaker 2: on three. One, two, three.
• 1:26:12
  Speaker 1: Scary Terry, still the go-to, of course. McLaurin, a toe-tapping
• 1:26:16
  Speaker 1: highlight machine wizard.
• 1:26:17
  Speaker 2: Trick or treat! Scary Terry arrives!
• 1:26:20
  Speaker 1: And those cats will battle Philadelphia's retooled secondary. No more
• 1:26:25
  Speaker 1: Reed Blankenship at safety. Returnee Andrew Makuba taking his spot.
• 1:26:30
  Speaker 2: There's the turnover! Intercepted by Makuba!
• 1:26:33
  Speaker 1: Reek Woolen takes over Adore Jackson's role at cornerback, and
• 1:26:37
  Speaker 1: he gets to see what it's going to be like
• 1:26:38
  Speaker 1: to play alongside Cooper Dejean and Quinion Mitchell. Either guy
• 1:26:42
  Speaker 1: versus McLaurin is worth getting the popcorn out for.
• 1:26:45
  Speaker 2: And it's intercepted!
• 1:26:49
  Speaker 1: If you can make it here week one, maybe you
• 1:26:52
  Speaker 1: can make it anywhere in 2026. New York at home
• 1:26:55
  Speaker 1: to start the season. A little Sunday night football giants
• 1:26:59
  Speaker 1: with something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue,
• 1:27:02
  Speaker 1: of course. So guess they're ready to say I do.
• 1:27:05
  Speaker 2: Two rookies.
• 1:27:07
  Speaker 3: Have breathed life into this franchise.
• 1:27:09
  Speaker 1: America's team is in town. Okay, at the very least,
• 1:27:12
  Speaker 1: the Cowboys are Dallas' team, hoping to shed the Alice
• 1:27:15
  Speaker 1: Cowboys label and restore the D to the Big D.
• 1:27:19
  Speaker 6: This team is different, and I'm so proud.
• 1:27:22
  Speaker 2: I will fight with you guys anytime, anyplace.
• 1:27:25
  Speaker 1: What the Giants look like under John Harbaugh leads the way.
• 1:27:28
  Speaker 1: The longtime Ravens coach makes his Big Blue regular season
• 1:27:31
  Speaker 1: debut at home versus the hated Cowboys, so this is
• 1:27:35
  Speaker 1: a chance for him to make quite the impression.
• 1:27:37
  Speaker 2: It's a different vibe. It's stronger. They're ready to go.
• 1:27:41
  Speaker 2: They're more physical.
• 1:27:42
  Speaker 4: They're working hard.
• 1:27:43
  Speaker 2: Nothing against past regimes, but they're working really hard, and
• 1:27:46
  Speaker 2: you can see it.
• 1:27:47
  Speaker 1: Dallas doesn't have a new head coach, but the They
• 1:27:48
  Speaker 1: do have a new D.C., Christian Parker, who's trying to
• 1:27:52
  Speaker 1: restore some kind of respectability to that defense that cost
• 1:27:58
  Speaker 1: the Cowboys a number of wins last year. It was
• 1:28:01
  Speaker 1: one of the worst, if not the worst, defense in
• 1:28:04
  Speaker 1: the league. Many a star faithful will be watching to
• 1:28:07
  Speaker 1: see if it looks any better under Parker's command. To
• 1:28:13
  Speaker 1: look good, the boys have to contain Jackson Dart. He's
• 1:28:18
  Speaker 1: back to start his second year off after tantalizing G-Man
• 1:28:21
  Speaker 1: Faithful with his dual threat abilities, not to mention flair.
• 1:28:25
  Speaker 1: He has Matt Nagy guiding him, New York's new OC,
• 1:28:33
  Speaker 1: so what does that combo look like for an entire
• 1:28:35
  Speaker 1: 60 minutes of football? He's going to wonder.
• 1:28:37
  Speaker 4: It comes to the 15, to the 10, to the 5.
• 1:28:41
  Speaker 1: How he fares as a passer could hinge on whether
• 1:28:44
  Speaker 1: Malik Nabors plays. He's hoping to return for this game
• 1:28:47
  Speaker 1: after a long rehab. At the time, this was going
• 1:28:49
  Speaker 1: to print, as it were. Wasn't 100% for sure, so
• 1:28:53
  Speaker 1: have to track his status as we get closer to kickoff.
• 1:28:56
  Speaker 4: Pops it downfield.
• 1:28:57
  Speaker 2: He's got Nabors in the end zone and makes the
• 1:28:59
  Speaker 2: catch for the touchdown!
• 1:29:01
  Speaker 1: Lots of new pass catchers for Dart to work with, too.
• 1:29:04
  Speaker 1: Darnell Mooney, former Falcon. Third-round pick Malachi Fields.
• 1:29:08
  Speaker 2: Fires it into the end zone. Touchdown, Giants! Malachi Fields!
• 1:29:12
  Speaker 1: And some chap who goes by OBJ. Giants fans, he
• 1:29:17
  Speaker 1: used to be pretty good at catching the football with
• 1:29:19
  Speaker 1: one hand. You should warm up to him.
• 1:29:21
  Speaker 2: That may be the greatest catch I've ever seen.
• 1:29:23
  Speaker 1: They're doing battle with Dallas's highly touted first round pick,
• 1:29:27
  Speaker 1: Caleb Downs, who makes his regular season debut.
• 1:29:30
  Speaker 3: A lot of expectations for him and He has met
• 1:29:33
  Speaker 3: expectations so far.
• 1:29:35
  Speaker 1: Dallas' remade secondary has a number of new faces that
• 1:29:38
  Speaker 1: make it up. Safeties Jalen Thompson, former Cardinal, P.J. Locke,
• 1:29:42
  Speaker 1: former Bronco, and cornerback Kobe Durant, who played the pass
• 1:29:46
  Speaker 1: great for the Rams a year ago. This group is
• 1:29:49
  Speaker 1: on the hook trying to make their D tougher to
• 1:29:51
  Speaker 1: deal with.
• 1:29:52
  Speaker 6: Intercepted!
• 1:29:52
  Speaker 2: Kobe Durant at the 1!
• 1:29:54
  Speaker 1: Dallas's front seven also has a new look to it.
• 1:29:57
  Speaker 1: Former Niner Dee Winters debuting at linebacker. Former Packer Rashawn Gary.
• 1:30:02
  Speaker 1: Their other first round pick Malachi Lawrence will be coming
• 1:30:05
  Speaker 1: off the edge. Three of the seven starters at levels
• 1:30:08
  Speaker 1: two and three new to the silver, blue, and white.
• 1:30:11
  Speaker 2: One person that made that play possible for Marquise Bell.
• 1:30:14
  Speaker 4: Malachi Lawrence.
• 1:30:16
  Speaker 1: They will not only be tasked with tracking down Dart,
• 1:30:18
  Speaker 1: but stopping his partner in crime Cam Scataboo. The running
• 1:30:22
  Speaker 1: back was just as much a part of energizing the
• 1:30:25
  Speaker 1: fan base with his no-holds-barred runs. He also had his
• 1:30:30
  Speaker 1: season cut short by injury, so we'll see if he
• 1:30:32
  Speaker 1: can pick back up where he left off before getting hurt.
• 1:30:41
  Speaker 1: Will New York's offense need their track shoes? They will
• 1:30:44
  Speaker 1: if Dallas' offense hasn't slowed down.
• 1:30:46
  Speaker 2: We owe it to ourselves.
• 1:30:48
  Speaker 4: We owe it to ourselves to stay on their hands.
• 1:30:51
  Speaker 1: Dak, CD, Hickens, Ferg, Javante Williams, they racked up plenty
• 1:30:56
  Speaker 1: of points in most games, barring a drop-off, they should
• 1:30:59
  Speaker 1: do so again. They square off with a Denard Wilson
• 1:31:04
  Speaker 1: new-look Giants defense.
• 1:31:06
  Speaker 4: Burns gets the sack, forces the fumble, scooped up by
• 1:31:09
  Speaker 4: the Giants.
• 1:31:10
  Speaker 1: Wasn't the strongest unit around in 2025, so a new DC,
• 1:31:14
  Speaker 1: a new DT and DJ Reeder, new defensive end in
• 1:31:17
  Speaker 1: Shelby Harris, plus two new linebackers, first-round pick Arvel Reese,
• 1:31:22
  Speaker 1: as well as Tremaine Edmonds, former Bear, paired with Kayvon Thibodeau,
• 1:31:27
  Speaker 1: Abdul Carter, and Brian Burns. They seem plenty capable of
• 1:31:31
  Speaker 1: putting pressure on Dak.
• 1:31:32
  Speaker 3: Spider-Man erases the Raiders on third down.
• 1:31:35
  Speaker 1: Okay, a few bonus storylines. Since we went heavy on
• 1:31:38
  Speaker 1: New York, Do the Giants have the corners to slow
• 1:31:41
  Speaker 1: Lamb and Pickens down?
• 1:31:42
  Speaker 2: Toss right, he's got Lamb wide open on the right
• 1:31:45
  Speaker 2: side of the end zone.
• 1:31:46
  Speaker 1: There are few teams with a wide receiver duo like theirs.
• 1:31:49
  Speaker 1: Both guys are basically WR1s. Both cracked 1,000 yards. Pickens
• 1:31:54
  Speaker 1: putting up a career year in 2025. How will New
• 1:31:58
  Speaker 1: York contain those two? And finally, will Prescott snap his
• 1:32:06
  Speaker 1: week one streak and start hot?
• 1:32:08
  Speaker 4: That's all we got.
• 1:32:09
  Speaker 2: That's all we need.
• 1:32:10
  Speaker 1: The last four week ones for Dak, 188 yards, 179, 143,
• 1:32:13
  Speaker 1: and 134, doesn't fit his overall body of work. Oh,
• 1:32:15
  Speaker 1: f * * * ing day. They f * * *
• 1:32:15
  Speaker 1: ing missed me. If you're prone to a case of
• 1:32:27
  Speaker 1: the moon days, we have your remedy. Monday Night Football
• 1:32:31
  Speaker 1: Week 1, Denver Broncos hitting Arrowhead as defending AFC West champs,
• 1:32:35
  Speaker 1: looking to make an early season statement that they don't
• 1:32:38
  Speaker 1: plan on giving up their crown anytime soon.
• 1:32:40
  Speaker 4: We're here all day! We're here all day!
• 1:32:42
  Speaker 2: Come on!
• 1:32:43
  Speaker 1: Kansas City opening up 2026 at home. Patrick back at
• 1:32:47
  Speaker 1: the controls of the offense, hoping to show the NFL
• 1:32:50
  Speaker 1: that he hasn't lost a step, no matter who he's
• 1:32:53
  Speaker 1: out there slinging it to. It's a hell of an opportunity.
• 1:32:55
  Speaker 2: It's a hell of an opportunity to make a statement
• 1:32:57
  Speaker 2: about who we are.
• 1:32:58
  Speaker 1: And this one starts with the return of Mahomes. Fighting
• 1:33:03
  Speaker 1: his way back from his ACL injury and time to start.
• 1:33:06
  Speaker 2: Go!
• 1:33:11
  Speaker 1: Now we get to see if he's got the same
• 1:33:13
  Speaker 1: old magic or whether there's going to be some rust
• 1:33:15
  Speaker 1: to his game. The defense he faces was as good
• 1:33:19
  Speaker 1: as it gets last year. Fueled by the top pass
• 1:33:26
  Speaker 1: rush in the game. Still have the likes of Zach Allen,
• 1:33:31
  Speaker 1: who is a monster leading the NFL with 47 QB hits.
• 1:33:36
  Speaker 2: Down he goes at the 32-yard line. That pressure again.
• 1:33:39
  Speaker 2: Allen and Bonito converge.
• 1:33:42
  Speaker 1: And their sack leader, Nick Bonito, who racked 14 quarterbacks.
• 1:33:46
  Speaker 3: Here comes Bonito, and Bonito's got Geno, and down Smith goes.
• 1:33:50
  Speaker 1: Their front may have to handle a few more KC
• 1:33:53
  Speaker 1: runs compared to what we're used to seeing. How exactly
• 1:33:56
  Speaker 1: will Kenneth Walker fit into Kansas City's offensive attack in
• 1:33:59
  Speaker 1: his Chiefs debut? The reigning Super Bowl MVP comes off
• 1:34:03
  Speaker 1: a 1,000-yard year. He was the team's big acquisition over
• 1:34:06
  Speaker 1: the offseason. Will his presence lead to an altered offensive approach?
• 1:34:11
  Speaker 4: Kenneth Walker, their free agent addition, Super Bowl MVP, is
• 1:34:14
  Speaker 4: in the back.
• 1:34:15
  Speaker 1: Denver's offense also added a star player to its lineup.
• 1:34:18
  Speaker 1: The Penguin makes his debut in orange and blue. Jalen
• 1:34:21
  Speaker 1: Waddell expected to improve Denver's passing attack, giving Bo Nix
• 1:34:25
  Speaker 1: two excellent wideouts to throw to.
• 1:34:27
  Speaker 2: Downfield, caught on the play, 35.
• 1:34:29
  Speaker 3: On the move right here, Jalen Waddell, the forward open,
• 1:34:34
  Speaker 3: swerving to the 25.
• 1:34:36
  Speaker 1: As he still has Cortland Sutton to work with as well.
• 1:34:40
  Speaker 1: Those two get to see what KC's first round draft
• 1:34:43
  Speaker 1: pick is all about. Mansoor Delane makes his regular season
• 1:34:46
  Speaker 1: NFL debut, the corner taking the place of Trent McDuffie,
• 1:34:50
  Speaker 1: so has big shoes to fill. KC has a very
• 1:34:56
  Speaker 1: different looking secondary, safety Elohi Gilman, former Raven, corner LeJarius Sneed,
• 1:35:02
  Speaker 1: back after a couple of years in Tennessee, all debut
• 1:35:05
  Speaker 1: or re-debut in the case of Sneed. They'll be trying
• 1:35:10
  Speaker 1: to slow Nix down, who's also playing his first real
• 1:35:13
  Speaker 1: action after rehabbing a hurt foot all season. Same deal
• 1:35:17
  Speaker 1: as Mahomes, looking to see if there's any lingering effects
• 1:35:20
  Speaker 1: from his injury.
• 1:35:21
  Speaker 2: Guards, keep them going. I can move up all day.
• 1:35:23
  Speaker 1: They'll be trying to avoid pressure from two rookie D linemen,
• 1:35:26
  Speaker 1: first round DT Peter Woods and second round defensive end R.
• 1:35:30
  Speaker 1: Mason Thomas.
• 1:35:31
  Speaker 2: And a high five for fellow rookie R. Mason Thomas,
• 1:35:35
  Speaker 2: who put him on his back.
• 1:35:37
  Speaker 1: They hope pairing them with defensive end George Karloftis and
• 1:35:40
  Speaker 1: stud DT Chris Jones sparks up a pass rush that
• 1:35:44
  Speaker 1: didn't really come away with a ton of sacks a
• 1:35:46
  Speaker 1: year ago. The offensive line they'll do battle with made
• 1:35:51
  Speaker 1: up of five starters from 2025 who will be trying
• 1:35:55
  Speaker 1: to open up lanes for J.K. Dobbins and R.J.
• 1:35:58
  Speaker 2: Harvey.
• 1:36:02
  Speaker 1: Knicks threw more than any other quarterback last year. Harvey
• 1:36:06
  Speaker 1: and Dobbins, though, make a nice one-two punch down low.
• 1:36:09
  Speaker 1: How often will they get a chance to land some haymakers?
• 1:36:12
  Speaker 2: Tosses right side, Harvey. Into the goal line! Touchdown, Denver!
• 1:36:19
  Speaker 1: Mahomes pass catchers, they let a few dudes walk, didn't
• 1:36:22
  Speaker 1: sign anyone of significance. Their aerial attack hasn't lit up
• 1:36:26
  Speaker 1: the skies in recent years, including 2024 when Mahomes was
• 1:36:29
  Speaker 1: healthy all season. Rasheed Rice seemingly has a lot to prove.
• 1:36:37
  Speaker 1: He'll have Tyquan Thornton and Xavier Worthy as well, both
• 1:36:40
  Speaker 1: burner types, and of course, Travis Kelsey at tight end.
• 1:36:44
  Speaker 4: We're going to get y'all boys some points.
• 1:36:45
  Speaker 1: What's the newly married gent going to bring to the
• 1:36:48
  Speaker 1: table as he starts his 14th season?
• 1:36:50
  Speaker 2: 23 miles an hour.
• 1:36:51
  Speaker 9: No chance.
• 1:36:52
  Speaker 2: They told me. 15 maybe. You're moving. 15 maybe.
• 1:36:56
  Speaker 1: Mahomes and company face a beast of a secondary, assuming
• 1:36:59
  Speaker 1: Denver's is as tough as it was in 2025. I
• 1:37:01
  Speaker 1: believe in our defense. All five guys are back, too.
• 1:37:06
  Speaker 2: Look at him, diving in front.
• 1:37:08
  Speaker 6: There's a reason why he was Defensive Player of the
• 1:37:11
  Speaker 6: Year last year.
• 1:37:13
  Speaker 1: Safeties Brandon Jones, Talanoa Hufunga, Corners Riley Moss, Jaquan McMillan,
• 1:37:22
  Speaker 1: and PS2, there are no Waldos to be found if
• 1:37:25
  Speaker 1: they come out playing at the same levels as they
• 1:37:27
  Speaker 1: did last year.
• 1:37:28
  Speaker 2: That's what I expect from you. Every down. Not sometimes.
• 1:37:31
  Speaker 2: All the times.
