• 0:49
  Speaker 2: Nova, you ever heard of a second Monday before?
• 0:50
  Speaker 5: No, never have I ever.
• 0:53
  Speaker 4: Well, when you look at the world of health insurance,
• 0:55
  Speaker 4: there's such thing as a second Monday, especially with open
• 0:57
  Speaker 4: enrollment coming up.
• 0:59
  Speaker 3: Oh boy, open enrollment. I've got a story on open
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: enrollment that we can discuss about. And that's that I
• 1:05
  Speaker 3: need to sign up for open enrollment because I don't
• 1:09
  Speaker 3: got insurance.
• 1:13
  Speaker 4: In this economy, too expensive.
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: Yeah I mean it was more of the fact of
• 1:19
  Speaker 3: I had some financial things that happened a long time
• 1:25
  Speaker 3: ago and in the process of the financials being messed
• 1:29
  Speaker 3: up either they didn't contact me I didn't contact them
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: maybe a little bit of both didn't contact each other
• 1:38
  Speaker 3: and they were just like you don't pay no insurance for.
• 1:40
  Speaker 5: You that was a reverb if I've heard any I know.
• 1:46
  Speaker 3: That was weird. I was trying to be like the
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: Soup Nazi from Seinfeld, and Nova, I know that's too
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: young for you, but Brandon knows about the Soup Nazi.
• 1:55
  Speaker 4: No soup for you!
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: Come back for me!
• 1:59
  Speaker 5: I see some Seinfeld clips, but you are right.
• 2:01
  Speaker 4: It's one of the best Seinfeld episodes.
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: Everybody loves the Soup Nazi.
• 2:06
  Speaker 4: Speaking of being too young, hey, Nova, have you watched
• 2:09
  Speaker 4: any Spongebob episodes in the last week? No. Oh, boy.
• 2:16
  Speaker 3: I mean, Nova, not Nova, Brandon. It's actually funny you
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: bring up SpongeBob because my brother and I, we like
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: sending each other clips on Instagram because, you know, everybody...
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: Post funny Spongebob clips And the one that I sent
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: my brother today Was the episode Where Spongebob breaks his
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: ass On the mountain but it was Patrick flying off
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: the sand Mountain and he's just Ah Ah.
• 2:45
  Speaker 6: Ah I got dead again This game stinks.
• 2:51
  Speaker 4: Speaking of stinking games We got a few of those
• 2:53
  Speaker 4: to talk about tonight Oh, yeah, we do.
• 2:56
  Speaker 3: I mean, there's a reason that we titled this episode.
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: The script has been flipped. But before we get into that, Nova,
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: we got to talk about the high school and collegiate atmosphere.
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: What is the high school and collegiate report out there
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: in probably the best state for high school football in California? Texas?
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: I never.
• 3:19
  Speaker 5: okay i guess i'm not allowed to speak you know
• 3:21
  Speaker 5: i couldn't do my intro i couldn't do my thing
• 3:23
  Speaker 5: now okay i see how it is i'm fairly not
• 3:28
  Speaker 5: allowed to speak before i do i have a little
• 3:30
  Speaker 5: thing to talk about you know we have in the
• 3:32
  Speaker 5: pokemon world the global challenge coming up i still don't
• 3:35
  Speaker 5: know what team i want to run because of inconsistencies
• 3:37
  Speaker 5: and i gotta shout out a family member of mine
• 3:39
  Speaker 5: who goes by slayer finale you guys are not going
• 3:40
  Speaker 5: to see this on the camera because we're on the
• 3:43
  Speaker 5: podcast recording but for talon and brandon they already see
• 3:45
  Speaker 5: what i have on my fingers.
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: Wow, look at that.
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: Brandon, a pixelated Larvitar.
• 3:50
  Speaker 4: Nice.
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: I mean, why doesn't he just run Joe's team? Just
• 3:55
  Speaker 3: run the coaching Sneasler with Tyranitar.
• 3:57
  Speaker 5: I'd like to, but I feel like there's a heavy
• 4:00
  Speaker 5: argument for me to just go Mega Dragon Knight Mega Metagross,
• 4:03
  Speaker 5: you know?
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: I mean, I'm probably running dual Megas. Mega Z, for
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: that matter. I found a dual Z Mega team, and as.
• 4:14
  Speaker 3: Of recording on unofficial battle simulators, because I haven't made
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: the team on Champions yet, I am sitting at 20
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: wins and 13 losses.
• 4:27
  Speaker 5: Okay, and the last thing I'll touch up about that
• 4:30
  Speaker 5: is that I actually have a really funny acronym for
• 4:32
  Speaker 5: my team. I call it Sipper Smash Bros.
• 4:35
  Speaker 4: Mid.
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: Super Smash Bros.
• 4:38
  Speaker 4: Mid.
• 4:39
  Speaker 5: And the only reason I have it this way is
• 4:41
  Speaker 5: the acronyms are S-S-B-M-I-D.
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: Oh, man.
• 4:52
  Speaker 5: But into the high school stuff. We are actually really
• 4:57
  Speaker 5: starting league play. coming up this weekend, you know, we
• 5:01

• 5:04
  Speaker 5: Bear at Norte Vista. That's the game that they're going
• 5:06
  Speaker 5: to be featuring. Obviously, you can check that out on
• 5:09
  Speaker 5: Riverside TV if you ever get the chance to. But
• 5:11
  Speaker 5: in the collegiate world, Riverside City College, now the best
• 5:15
  Speaker 5: team in the junior college world in California after knocking
• 5:19
  Speaker 5: off number two Saddleback last week and continuing on. I
• 5:24
  Speaker 5: have a big thing to say because, well, San Bernardino
• 5:27
  Speaker 5: Valley College is They're 5-0 on the season, and they're
• 5:30
  Speaker 5: having a big home game this week, which I'll be
• 5:32
  Speaker 5: a part of on the IENG channel on Saturday against
• 5:37
  Speaker 5: the 20th best state, let me rephrase, 20th best team
• 5:41
  Speaker 5: in the state, Fullerton College.
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: Oh, yo, Brandon, that sounds like a game we got
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: to watch.
• 5:47
  Speaker 4: That sounds pretty good.
• 5:49
  Speaker 5: But yeah, that's pretty much how my day's gone. Still
• 5:51
  Speaker 5: trying to figure out things for the Global Challenge, but
• 5:53
  Speaker 5: more than excited for this upcoming weekend, because you might
• 5:56
  Speaker 5: want to pay attention to this night's Friday Night Pep Rally.
• 5:59
  Speaker 5: I mean, you guys might be asleep for it, but
• 6:02
  Speaker 5: Devon will always be there on YouTube, but if you

• 6:42
  Speaker 3: I mean, Brandon, we're talking about old, and we've got
• 6:47
  Speaker 3: the young man in Nova on our podcast with us.
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: But guys, I got two weeks left before I'm 30. Literally,
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: when we preview the week four NFL games on episode 10,
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: which comes out next Wednesday at the time of this recording,
• 7:05
  Speaker 3: I will be celebrating the last week of my 20s.
• 7:09
  Speaker 3: That Monday night game where the Falcons play the Saints
• 7:12
  Speaker 3: is my 30th birthday.
• 7:14
  Speaker 4: You better hope for a good birthday present because, God Almighty,
• 7:17
  Speaker 4: you both make me feel old.
• 7:19
  Speaker 3: Well, I mean, I'm going to be watching it. I'm
• 7:21
  Speaker 3: going to be watching and reacting to it live on
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: my Twitch channel. So that'll be a lot of fun.
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: But why are we talking about week four right now?
• 7:30
  Speaker 5: Yeah, it was barely week two. What are we doing?
• 7:33
  Speaker 5: Can we start this off by recapping the Thursday night
• 7:35
  Speaker 5: game in the new Highmark Stadium between the Lions and
• 7:38
  Speaker 5: the Bills?
• 7:39
  Speaker 4: Hold that thought, actually. Hold that thought. I do have
• 7:41
  Speaker 4: a very important update regarding the world of collegiate football.
• 7:44
  Speaker 4: If you guys remember, like week one or week two,
• 7:46
  Speaker 4: we briefly talked about at the end of the episode,
• 7:49
  Speaker 4: Victory Vaca in his scholarship that got revoked from Western
• 7:53
  Speaker 4: Kentucky University because he went to go see his mother's
• 7:58
  Speaker 4: funeral in California. Yeah. So the last update that we
• 8:01
  Speaker 4: had on that at that time was that he had
• 8:04
  Speaker 4: been stripped of his scholarship because his coach was honestly
• 8:08
  Speaker 4: just a piece of crap. Well, in between then and now,
• 8:13
  Speaker 4: apparently he wound up hiring an attorney, and he wound
• 8:20
  Speaker 4: up having his actual full legal battle against the NCAA
• 8:24
  Speaker 4: in western Kentucky funded by And successfully won by none
• 8:31
  Speaker 4: other than Lil Wayne.
• 8:34
  Speaker 5: What?
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: There's no way.
• 8:37
  Speaker 4: So, Victory Vaca now has transferred to Middles Tennessee State University.
• 8:43
  Speaker 4: And he was eligible for the collegiate football season week one.
• 8:49
  Speaker 4: I hear the research going right now.
• 8:54
  Speaker 5: No, for me, it's like Lil Wayne helping out. It's
• 8:56
  Speaker 5: like the least believable thing I can hear from somebody. Exactly.
• 9:00
  Speaker 4: I'm telling you. I'm telling you. Look it up. It
• 9:02
  Speaker 4: literally says College Football Player Victory Vodka transferred to MTSU,
• 9:07
  Speaker 4: which is not too far from here in North Carolina,
• 9:09
  Speaker 4: after rapper Lil Wayne funded his legal battle against the
• 9:13
  Speaker 4: NCAA in Western Kentucky. Direct sourcing by CBS Sports.
• 9:21
  Speaker 5: And that is how you do journalism, ladies and gentlemen.
• 9:25
  Speaker 5: I'm proud of you, Brandon.
• 9:25
  Speaker 4: Look, look, I might just have a two-year degree in
• 9:29
  Speaker 4: broadcast journalism, but I am a man of research. So
• 9:33
  Speaker 4: I didn't even think to look it up until today,
• 9:37
  Speaker 4: whenever he started mentioning collegiate football. And the more obscure
• 9:42
  Speaker 4: teams compared to what you would hear in today's modern
• 9:45
  Speaker 4: collegiate football world. So I was like, oh, hey, let
• 9:46
  Speaker 4: me look this up real quick. It was a very
• 9:48
  Speaker 4: pleasant find to see little Wayne funded some random football
• 9:51
  Speaker 4: players fight against NCAA.
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: And I actually do have the article up right now.
• 9:56
  Speaker 3: So Nova, he is right.
• 9:59
  Speaker 5: I never said he wasn't right. I just like, it's
• 10:02
  Speaker 5: just a crazy thing.
• 10:03
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it is like the, the, the tagline of that
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: article that Brandon's referencing by Chris Hummer titled after mother's death,
• 10:13
  Speaker 3: victory vodka lands at middle Tennessee with NCAA fight backed
• 10:16
  Speaker 3: by low Wayne.
• 10:21
  Speaker 4: The resolution of this was that Vodka won the legal battle,
• 10:24
  Speaker 4: was granted an injunction to enter the transfer portal, Jesus Christ,
• 10:31
  Speaker 4: English is hard, on August 20th, and he even got
• 10:34
  Speaker 4: flown to meet Lil Wayne after securing his new path
• 10:38
  Speaker 4: into MTSU.
• 10:40
  Speaker 3: I mean, hey, you can't go wrong with that, am
• 10:42
  Speaker 3: I right?
• 10:43
  Speaker 4: I mean, it's not the most ideal circumstances, you know,
• 10:47
  Speaker 4: considering how all of it came about to begin with,
• 10:49
  Speaker 4: and that shouldn't happen to anybody. you know, having your
• 10:51
  Speaker 4: scholarship revoked in a way that he did.
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: And I agree with you on that part, but that's
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: awesome at the same time.
• 10:57
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it is. Yeah.
• 10:59
  Speaker 3: That, that is awesome. And shout outs to low Wayne,
• 11:02
  Speaker 3: by the way, the most famous person to come out
• 11:06
  Speaker 3: of that state of Louisiana. And he's not even a
• 11:09
  Speaker 3: saints fan. He's a cheese head.
• 11:12
  Speaker 5: I remember he tweeted how he didn't want to watch
• 11:14
  Speaker 5: the Packers. He's enough that I Viking sting.
• 11:19
  Speaker 3: I mean, it kind of, I mean, you can't blame
• 11:22
  Speaker 3: him after how the Packers choked that game away. I mean,
• 11:25
  Speaker 3: did you see Tom Grossi's video?
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: I did.
• 11:29
  Speaker 5: God, I love Tom Grossi.
• 11:31
  Speaker 3: Yeah, no, he's hilarious. I mean, I just saw this one.
• 11:35
  Speaker 3: I mean, we're going to be talking about it in
• 11:36
  Speaker 3: a little bit for week two. This Dre Wallen guy,
• 11:40
  Speaker 3: he does like stupid comedy videos on TikTok, and he
• 11:44
  Speaker 3: did one of the Tampa Cleveland game, which we'll get
• 11:49
  Speaker 3: into it. It was hilarious.
• 11:52
  Speaker 5: Yeah, and that's also a part of why this title
• 11:55
  Speaker 5: is called Descriptus and Flipped, because I don't know why
• 11:58
  Speaker 5: I thought... It was a good thing I alluded to
• 12:01
  Speaker 5: the fact that the Browns could be the opposite, but
• 12:03
  Speaker 5: as you'll see, I didn't think it'd be believable.
• 12:07
  Speaker 3: I mean, none of us did, but Let's start recapping
• 12:11
  Speaker 3: week number two, guys. And I mean, Nova, you started
• 12:16
  Speaker 3: the lead with it because it was.
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: The home opener for the Buffalo Bills.
• 12:21
  Speaker 3: And they were breaking in that spiffy new stadium out
• 12:25
  Speaker 3: there in Orchard Park that has horrible.
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: Set up with the.
• 12:32
  Speaker 3: Various locations that have some bad viewpoints. And, you know, Brandon,
• 12:40
  Speaker 3: even though he's a Patriots fan, he probably slammed himself
• 12:42
  Speaker 3: through a table to be honorary Bills Mafia member of
• 12:45
  Speaker 3: the week.
• 12:48
  Speaker 4: Me? Honorary Bills fan of the week? Absolutely not. Yeah,
• 12:51
  Speaker 4: I'm going to jump off the roof of my house first.
• 12:55
  Speaker 4: Show Bills fans how you really elbow drop a table.
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: But you will be going through a table, correct?
• 13:02
  Speaker 4: I have to aim correctly, so I mean, that would
• 13:04
  Speaker 4: be the goal.
• 13:04
  Speaker 3: Oh my god.
• 13:08
  Speaker 5: But yeah, that is New Highmark Stadium that just got opened.
• 13:11
  Speaker 5: I don't know if they sold out. I'm pretty sure
• 13:12
  Speaker 5: the answer is yes. And oh yeah, boy, I called
• 13:15
  Speaker 5: this game almost correctly, because I hate that this is
• 13:19
  Speaker 5: the theme for the Bills, at least as of late,
• 13:21
  Speaker 5: that Josh Allen has to go god mode, but that's
• 13:24
  Speaker 5: just been what's been happening.
• 13:25
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Josh Allen has definitely been going god mode right now.
• 13:30
  Speaker 5: I mean.
• 13:32
  Speaker 3: Uh, that, that game was absolutely incredible for a Thursday
• 13:35
  Speaker 3: night contest. And all I can say about that, I mean,
• 13:40
  Speaker 3: I felt more like the James Cook show at one
• 13:44
  Speaker 3: point with how they were playing, like James Cook for
• 13:47
  Speaker 3: a buck 35.
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: Like that's great for a running back.
• 13:52
  Speaker 3: I mean, I have a running back that likes going
• 13:54
  Speaker 3: for a buck 35 when he can get running.
• 13:57
  Speaker 4: We'll touch on that later. Yeah.
• 14:01
  Speaker 5: But yeah, the final score, if I remember correctly, 41-34.
• 14:04
  Speaker 5: The Bills won, although that score is really deceptive of
• 14:08
  Speaker 5: how the game was played because the Bills at one
• 14:10
  Speaker 5: point were leading 21-7. And the Lions, you know, their offense,
• 14:14
  Speaker 5: they're continuing to work. You know, Jared Goff still doing
• 14:17
  Speaker 5: his thing with Amon Ross St.
• 14:18
  Speaker 3: Brown.
• 14:19
  Speaker 5: However, I think this game doesn't really... answer the questions
• 14:23
  Speaker 5: that we had from last week, whereas the Lions' secondary
• 14:27
  Speaker 5: issues are still there, and the Buffalo Bills' defense is
• 14:30
  Speaker 5: still suspect.
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: I mean, the Bills' defense has always been suspect.
• 14:34
  Speaker 3: They nearly lost to the Houston Texans in week one.
• 14:40
  Speaker 4: Yep.
• 14:43
  Speaker 3: Like, the Bills are a sack and a fumble because C.J.
• 14:47
  Speaker 3: Stroud tried to play hero ball away from potentially being
• 14:51
  Speaker 3: one-on-one right now.
• 14:53
  Speaker 5: But yeah, what I'm trying to allude to, just like,
• 14:56
  Speaker 5: what happens when Josh Allen doesn't go god mode in
• 14:58
  Speaker 5: that situation?
• 15:00
  Speaker 3: Then they just lose. I mean, I was going to say, Brandon,
• 15:03
  Speaker 3: you hit the nail on the head. They're basically up
• 15:05
  Speaker 3: Schitt's Creek without a paddle.
• 15:07
  Speaker 4: Yep.
• 15:09
  Speaker 3: I mean, the other thing that I want to throw
• 15:11
  Speaker 3: out here in this, like the box score, I mean,
• 15:15
  Speaker 3: Josh Allen, like Nova said, 20-31 for 248 with three touchdowns,
• 15:19
  Speaker 3: no interceptions. Jared Goff, 26-38 for 327 yards, four touchdowns,
• 15:26
  Speaker 3: no interceptions. Help me understand this, guys. So Jared Goff
• 15:31
  Speaker 3: had a higher passer rating than Josh Allen, but Josh
• 15:36
  Speaker 3: Allen had a higher QBR than Jared Goff.
• 15:39
  Speaker 4: Yep.
• 15:42
  Speaker 3: Make it make sense with these numbers.
• 15:48
  Speaker 4: It's, it's a really, it's a really weird thing though.
• 15:50
  Speaker 4: I mean, QBR is, it's not, I don't think it's
• 15:53
  Speaker 4: the most reliable thing in the world because it calculates
• 15:56
  Speaker 4: this weird play by play statistical model. And I think
• 16:02
  Speaker 4: a lot of that has to do with the fact
• 16:05
  Speaker 4: it just factors in all quarterback play. which I believe
• 16:09
  Speaker 4: would also include, I don't know this for sure because
• 16:11
  Speaker 4: I'm not looking at it, it would also calculate into
• 16:14
  Speaker 4: play the efficiency of the quarterback, also due to Josh
• 16:19
  Speaker 4: Allen's two rushing touchdowns as well.
• 16:21
  Speaker 5: Which, by the way, puts him in the top 20, apparently,
• 16:24
  Speaker 5: all-time in rushing touchdowns.
• 16:26
  Speaker 4: Which is crazy.
• 16:27
  Speaker 3: I know.
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: That's just stuff that you don't even think about, but.
• 16:33
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, Josh Allen right now, he is playing
• 16:36
  Speaker 3: absolutely out of his mind, so much so that Nova,
• 16:40
  Speaker 3: I'm going to bring up Brandon's favorite person in the
• 16:42
  Speaker 3: sports media world real quick.
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: He was at the.
• 16:45
  Speaker 3: Top of Nick Wright's Mahomes Mountain today.
• 16:50
  Speaker 4: Mahomes Mountain's so fucking stupid. I refuse to make a
• 16:58
  Speaker 4: comment on that one because I don't watch that show.
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: As you shouldn't.
• 17:03
  Speaker 3: I can tell you, Lamar was in row three of
• 17:06
  Speaker 3: Mahomes Mountain alongside the Prince.
• 17:10
  Speaker 5: Being who?
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: Oh, the Prince is Trevor Lawrence.
• 17:15
  Speaker 4: That's interesting because Trevor Lawrence is not even on the
• 17:19
  Speaker 4: Vegas odds for MVP.
• 17:20
  Speaker 5: I mean, as we'll allude to later, he didn't play
• 17:25
  Speaker 5: an awful game last week, but well, I think that's
• 17:28
  Speaker 5: more indicative of how he did against the Browns than
• 17:31
  Speaker 5: how good he is actually.
• 17:34
  Speaker 4: I think he's good. I mean, I do think he's
• 17:36
  Speaker 4: definitely stepped up. We'll talk about that more on that later. But,
• 17:39
  Speaker 4: you know, I definitely don't think he's top five right now,
• 17:43
  Speaker 4: just based on current week two performances. But just kind
• 17:46
  Speaker 4: of give you guys just a little bit of an
• 17:48
  Speaker 4: insight to it. Current Vegas odds for MVP are, from
• 17:52
  Speaker 4: first to last, Josh Allen, Mahomes, Lamar, Brock Purdy, Joe Burrow.
• 17:56
  Speaker 5: I actually agree with those rankings. I actually agree.
• 18:03
  Speaker 3: I would agree with those rankings myself. But, yeah, I mean,
• 18:08
  Speaker 3: what more can you say about the Bills and the Lions?
• 18:12
  Speaker 3: I mean, Jameer Gibbs, 16 carries for 52 yards. I mean, look,
• 18:16
  Speaker 3: people keep trying to tell me Jameer Gibbs is better
• 18:19
  Speaker 3: than Bajon Robinson. He is not better than Bajon, but
• 18:25
  Speaker 3: I digress on that one.
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: Amon Roth.
• 18:27
  Speaker 4: I bet you do digress.
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: I mean, yes, I do digress.
• 18:32
  Speaker 3: I mean, Amon Ra, nine catches for a buck 42
• 18:35
  Speaker 3: with two touchdowns. I mean, Amon Ra is a great
• 18:39
  Speaker 3: wide receiver, if you ask me. The other thing that
• 18:43
  Speaker 3: I'm noticing is that Jared Goff fumbled twice. Josh Allen
• 18:48
  Speaker 3: fumbled once. And yeah, I mean, so there were a
• 18:53
  Speaker 3: couple of times the ball was on the ground that
• 18:54
  Speaker 3: kind of is unfortunate. I'm also happy that Dalton Kincaid
• 18:59
  Speaker 3: made a showing because.
• 19:01
  Speaker 5: My fantasy team thanks him for that.
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so does mine because my other tight end is
• 19:06
  Speaker 2: Kyle Pitts.
• 19:09
  Speaker 4: He was the Pitts. Anyway... Oh.
• 19:14
  Speaker 3: Boy, oh boy, oh boy, oh boy.
• 19:16
  Speaker 4: We'll save that one for when the time comes.
• 19:22
  Speaker 3: Yeah, the other thing that I want to also point
• 19:24
  Speaker 3: out in that Thursday night game, third down efficiency, Buffalo
• 19:30
  Speaker 3: was 75% on third down.
• 19:32
  Speaker 4: That speaks a lot to that Detroit defense. As in
• 19:37
  Speaker 4: what defense?
• 19:38
  Speaker 5: Yeah, they don't have a secondary.
• 19:40
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that's what I was going to say. It's like,
• 19:42
  Speaker 4: what defense?
• 19:43
  Speaker 5: And I don't even think Brian Branch coming back is
• 19:45
  Speaker 5: going to help.
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: I don't think it's going to help.
• 19:50
  Speaker 3: Either but then you also throw in the fact that
• 19:53
  Speaker 3: the Lions if you add their fourth down so the
• 19:56
  Speaker 3: Lions were perfect on fourth down but they were four
• 19:59
  Speaker 3: for eleven on third down so six of thirteen just
• 20:03
  Speaker 3: sub under sub fifty percent but not terrible um I mean,
• 20:09
  Speaker 3: time of possession, Bills had the advantage by seven minutes. Penalty,
• 20:14
  Speaker 3: I mean, penalties usually are the big problem in the
• 20:20
  Speaker 3: league right now. But also when you think about it,
• 20:23
  Speaker 3: Jameer Gibbs had 52 rushing yards and the Lions finished
• 20:28
  Speaker 3: with 66 on the ground. Are they missing Montgomery right now?
• 20:34
  Speaker 4: Just a touch.
• 20:36
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I think so too. Again, Montgomery got signed and traded,
• 20:40
  Speaker 5: so I think it's more so Detroit. They were sure
• 20:43
  Speaker 5: they could move on from Montgomery, but I'm not too
• 20:45
  Speaker 5: sure if they truly could. At least now. Yeah.
• 20:52
  Speaker 4: Because if you look at their rushing, who else did
• 20:55
  Speaker 4: the rushing in that game? The answer is nobody. Because
• 20:59
  Speaker 4: outside of that, Goff had three carries for seven yards,
• 21:02
  Speaker 4: however many, you know. How many of that ever involved, like,
• 21:05
  Speaker 4: end-of-game procedure? And then you have this random other running back,
• 21:10
  Speaker 4: Sion Vaki, with one carry for seven yards. Outside of that,
• 21:13
  Speaker 4: Jameer Gibbs.
• 21:15
  Speaker 5: Yeah, a reminder that Isaiah Pacheco still hurts for the Lions.
• 21:18
  Speaker 4: Uh-huh.
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: Pacheco is still hurt.
• 21:22
  Speaker 4: But.
• 21:23
  Speaker 3: I'm sorry, you were saying, Brandon?
• 21:29
  Speaker 4: I was going to say, like, a lot of this...
• 21:34
  Speaker 4: The Detroit offense right now is really focusing on Jameer Gibbs, obviously,
• 21:40
  Speaker 4: and Amon Ross St. Brown. If you are not one
• 21:43
  Speaker 4: of those two players, your production is probably going to
• 21:46
  Speaker 4: be middle of the road. Because, you know, Amon Ross,
• 21:50
  Speaker 4: Amon Ray, you know, nine receptions, 142 yards, two TVs
• 21:53
  Speaker 4: on 13 targets with nine catches out of those 13.
• 21:57
  Speaker 4: And then, but you turn around and you also have
• 21:59
  Speaker 4: Jameer Gibbs with a receiving touchdown as well. six receptions,
• 22:03
  Speaker 4: 61 yards on eight targets. I mean, that's their offense.
• 22:09
  Speaker 4: It's like, and I'm going to kind of reference the
• 22:11
  Speaker 4: NBA here for a second. It's like prior to this season, right?
• 22:15
  Speaker 4: The Philadelphia 76ers, you let Joel Embiid do whatever the
• 22:20
  Speaker 4: heck he wants to do, you guard everybody else. Milwaukee Bucks,
• 22:25
  Speaker 4: you let Giannis do whatever he wants to do, you
• 22:28
  Speaker 4: guard everybody else. It's the same thing here. You just
• 22:31
  Speaker 4: let these two players kind of do whatever they want to,
• 22:33
  Speaker 4: do what you can to stop them, guard everybody else,
• 22:36
  Speaker 4: and you wind up with a result like this because
• 22:37
  Speaker 4: the Detroit defense just cannot do what they're supposed to do.
• 22:40
  Speaker 5: And the last thing I'll point out, now that you
• 22:42
  Speaker 5: mentioned it, I'm worried for the Bills if that's what
• 22:45
  Speaker 5: happens to any opposing defense facing the Buffalo Bills because
• 22:48
  Speaker 5: it's like, Josh, I keep alluding to this and I
• 22:50
  Speaker 5: hate to be the one saying it because Josh Allen
• 22:52
  Speaker 5: is the best player in the league right now.
• 22:55
  Speaker 3: Whoa, now.
• 22:56
  Speaker 5: But what happens... But... But what happens if Josh Allen
• 23:00
  Speaker 5: can't do his thing?
• 23:01
  Speaker 4: Then he's loose.
• 23:04
  Speaker 5: That's my word for Buffalo. I don't want them to
• 23:06
  Speaker 5: loose because the defense lets them down. I know you do.
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: I know I do too.
• 23:11
  Speaker 5: But from a general perspective, I don't want to see
• 23:14
  Speaker 5: that happen.
• 23:16
  Speaker 3: I do. But Nova, when you think about it, all
• 23:21
  Speaker 3: you got to do is wait for January to come
• 23:24
  Speaker 3: around in Buffalo. And then Brandon's even happier than he
• 23:26
  Speaker 3: is right now.
• 23:28
  Speaker 5: Oh, I was too.
• 23:29
  Speaker 4: Don't worry.
• 23:29
  Speaker 5: All right. Let's move on to the Sunday slate. And
• 23:34
  Speaker 5: we had a difficult time seeing who was going first
• 23:36
  Speaker 5: amongst the three of us because the Ravens, Falcons, and
• 23:38
  Speaker 5: Patriots all had the same time window, but.
• 23:40
  Speaker 4: All three of them had different results.
• 23:44
  Speaker 3: I'm going last. I'm going last.
• 23:46
  Speaker 5: I mean, that's the part we decided on. That's what
• 23:48
  Speaker 5: we decided on.
• 23:49
  Speaker 3: Wait a minute.
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: Why did we decide on.
• 23:52
  Speaker 3: This, by the way?
• 23:53
  Speaker 4: Would you like to go ahead and reveal the answer
• 23:55
  Speaker 4: to this one, Talon?
• 23:58
  Speaker 2: I don't know, Nova. Do you want to answer the question?
• 24:02
  Speaker 5: Why don't you want to?
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: Because I would rather you guys lead it off.
• 24:10
  Speaker 5: I mean, you probably have the longer time anyway. I mean,
• 24:14
  Speaker 5: I am going to go with my tangents, but I
• 24:16
  Speaker 5: probably am going to have the least amount of time
• 24:18
  Speaker 5: on it than the two of you might. But I
• 24:20
  Speaker 5: have some things to say, so let's start off with
• 24:22
  Speaker 5: me then. So New Orleans at Baltimore... i hate the
• 24:27
  Speaker 5: way the ending was it was like seven it was
• 24:29
  Speaker 5: like 14 to 3 or 17 to 3 a half
• 24:31
  Speaker 5: time i was talking to us in the discord while
• 24:35
  Speaker 5: we were watching the games you know talent had a
• 24:37
  Speaker 5: lot more notes than i did at the time you
• 24:38
  Speaker 5: know i thought it's gonna be another chill game derrick
• 24:40
  Speaker 5: henry had a touchdown it was like a decent game
• 24:43
  Speaker 5: i mean keep in mind we didn't have jacoby lane
• 24:46
  Speaker 5: or zay clowers because of injury tez walker had a
• 24:48
  Speaker 5: great catch but Then the second half happens. It's like
• 24:52
  Speaker 5: our offense suddenly shut down. You know, Tyler loop had
• 24:54
  Speaker 5: that field goal to make a 17 to three. And
• 24:57
  Speaker 5: then for whatever reason in the four quarter, we play soft,
• 25:00
  Speaker 5: super soft coverage on defense. You know, there was a
• 25:03
  Speaker 5: point during the saints comeback drive when we were tight
• 25:06
  Speaker 5: at 17, where the defensive backs were playing 10 yards
• 25:09
  Speaker 5: apart from the receivers. Like, what are we doing on defense?
• 25:13
  Speaker 5: And then Chris Olave and Vele both got amazing receiving
• 25:18
  Speaker 5: days for Tyler Shuck. Are we just not putting our
• 25:21
  Speaker 5: best defensive backs on Olave? What's going on? And then
• 25:25
  Speaker 5: it all came to that goal line touchdown that I
• 25:29
  Speaker 5: don't think should have been called a touchdown. But they
• 25:31
  Speaker 5: missed a face smash, so it wouldn't have mattered because
• 25:33
  Speaker 5: either we would have lost there or they would have
• 25:36
  Speaker 5: got that touchdown and we'd be in the same situation
• 25:39
  Speaker 5: we did. And then stupid fourth quarter. I was so
• 25:42
  Speaker 5: livid at this because as soon as we were driving
• 25:46
  Speaker 5: and then Lamar over froze Bateman and I don't know
• 25:49
  Speaker 5: if it's truly Lamar's fault or it was Bateman's fault.
• 25:52
  Speaker 5: Then it gets intercepted. The game's over. And then the
• 25:54
  Speaker 5: internet labels us as jokers. They're saying Lamar's fake and
• 25:57
  Speaker 5: Talon's over here livid because the Saints won.
• 25:59
  Speaker 3: I mean, I'm not even livid that the Saints won
• 26:06
  Speaker 3: per se because again, I may hate the Saints from
• 26:11
  Speaker 3: a division rivalry and a historical standpoint, but there have
• 26:15
  Speaker 3: been players that wear that Fleur de Lis that I
• 26:20
  Speaker 3: have respected. And again, You will not find a Falcons
• 26:23
  Speaker 3: fan out there that will say that Drew Brees did
• 26:27
  Speaker 3: not deserve first ballot Hall of Fame. They'll say that
• 26:30
  Speaker 3: they hated him when he played for New Orleans, but
• 26:34
  Speaker 3: you'd have to find the dumbest, most loyal supporter. They'd
• 26:39
  Speaker 3: have to be so far up Trump's ass. I couldn't
• 26:42
  Speaker 3: tell where Trump ends and they begin. That's how... a
• 26:46
  Speaker 3: shade of Brown, their nose would be to say that
• 26:49
  Speaker 3: drew breeze was not a hall of famer.
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: First ballot.
• 26:53
  Speaker 5: Yeah. Continuing on though, that is apparently our 21st blown
• 26:57
  Speaker 5: four quarter league since 2020 decade, which still so most
• 27:01
  Speaker 5: of all time, people are saying that John Harbaugh wasn't
• 27:04
  Speaker 5: a problem. The thing about Mars, the problem, like I
• 27:07
  Speaker 5: truly don't know what's going on. Like our, our office,
• 27:09
  Speaker 5: somebody forgot how to play Derek Henry again. There was
• 27:12
  Speaker 5: a third and one where we threw a deep ball
• 27:13
  Speaker 5: to Chris Moore for some reason instead of running for it.
• 27:16
  Speaker 5: Then the defense, as I said, was playing super soft
• 27:19
  Speaker 5: coverage for no reason. We're playing pre-event defense in a
• 27:22
  Speaker 5: third and eight? What are we doing? Lamar is owning
• 27:26
  Speaker 5: up to the interception. Again, I don't know if it
• 27:27
  Speaker 5: was his fault or if it was Rashad Bateman's fault.
• 27:30
  Speaker 5: This game is so lost to me. I was angry
• 27:32
  Speaker 5: at the time, but I'm less angry about it because
• 27:34
  Speaker 5: it's probably one of those early losses that we have
• 27:36
  Speaker 5: to learn from, but I hate the internet sometimes. That's
• 27:40
  Speaker 5: all I'm going to say.
• 27:41
  Speaker 4: I mean, honestly, I think this was more on the
• 27:43
  Speaker 4: defense than it was Lamar.
• 27:44
  Speaker 5: That's what I'm thinking too.
• 27:45
  Speaker 4: Like how else are you just going to give up?
• 27:47
  Speaker 4: You're going to go into the fourth quarter and you're
• 27:49
  Speaker 4: up 17 to nine. And then you let 15 unanswered rip.
• 27:54
  Speaker 5: Because again, they were playing super soft coverage. Like you'll
• 27:57
  Speaker 5: notice on one of the plays, like on a third
• 27:59
  Speaker 5: and eight, they're playing different defensive backs, 10 yards deep.
• 28:02
  Speaker 3: Like what are they doing?
• 28:03
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 28:04
  Speaker 3: I mean, again, the only thing that I was going
• 28:07
  Speaker 3: to say about, like the saints or whatever is the
• 28:10
  Speaker 3: fact that, you know, I remember an earlier episode that
• 28:15
  Speaker 3: we talked about, you know, Drake London V Chris Olave.
• 28:19
  Speaker 3: Brandon is probably waving his flag saying.
• 28:22
  Speaker 5: Ha ha.
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: I'm right.
• 28:24
  Speaker 2: You're wrong right now.
• 28:27
  Speaker 3: I still believe Drake London is better than Chris Olave,
• 28:29
  Speaker 3: but that is me. But, yeah, I watched the touchdown
• 28:34
  Speaker 3: that Olave hit where he just hit the skinny post
• 28:37
  Speaker 3: on the inside. And yet, Brandon, there wasn't a receiver,
• 28:42
  Speaker 3: a defender within, what, 20 yards.
• 28:45
  Speaker 2: Of him, it felt like?
• 28:46
  Speaker 4: I don't like him the whole time.
• 28:50
  Speaker 5: I also need to point this out, too, because apparently
• 28:52
  Speaker 5: the Internet's talking a lot of crap about Alki Starks,
• 28:54
  Speaker 5: our first-round pick for, I think, two years ago.
• 28:56
  Speaker 4: He is.
• 28:57
  Speaker 5: God, he's near the bottom of the rankings in pro
• 29:01
  Speaker 5: football focus. Near the bottom of the rankings in safeties.
• 29:05
  Speaker 5: And he's a first-round pick. Oh, my God. This is
• 29:09
  Speaker 5: just an infuriating loss for me. I'm sure we can
• 29:11
  Speaker 5: recover from this with Dallas coming up in the schedule,
• 29:14
  Speaker 5: which we'll talk about later. But, oh, my goodness. I
• 29:18
  Speaker 5: hate how this is how the internet's labeling us. Especially
• 29:22
  Speaker 5: the Bills fans. They're out here saying Lamar's washed. They're like,
• 29:25
  Speaker 5: he's flipping cheeseburgers or something. And again, that interception, I'm
• 29:29
  Speaker 5: going to say it for a third time. I don't
• 29:30
  Speaker 5: know if it was his fault or who's the follower
• 29:33
  Speaker 5: shot baby i truly don't know.
• 29:35
  Speaker 3: I i think it was i think you're even throw
• 29:37
  Speaker 3: forget on one part of it nova they had to
• 29:40
  Speaker 3: drive 65 yards and 30 seconds so it might even
• 29:44
  Speaker 3: be you know they were just so crunched for time
• 29:47
  Speaker 3: that they were trying to just hit a home run
• 29:50
  Speaker 3: ball get inside like the 15 or whatever spike the
• 29:53
  Speaker 3: ball get two plays into the end.
• 29:55
  Speaker 5: Zone yeah that was another thing too because it's again
• 29:58
  Speaker 5: that final touchdown i I'm pretty sure it wasn't a touchdown,
• 30:01
  Speaker 5: but they missed a face mask call. So it was
• 30:03
  Speaker 5: either you get the touchdown there or the Saints run
• 30:05
  Speaker 5: out the clock and we lose. So I ultimately think
• 30:07
  Speaker 5: that missed call didn't even matter.
• 30:11
  Speaker 3: I mean, I don't think it mattered either, but I mean,
• 30:16
  Speaker 3: by Brandon, I mean, we were talking about fantasy teams.
• 30:19
  Speaker 3: I very much enjoy when Derrick Henry hits his head
• 30:21
  Speaker 3: on the goal post.
• 30:24
  Speaker 4: Well, guess what?
• 30:25
  Speaker 5: It didn't freaking happen because apparently we forgot about him
• 30:27
  Speaker 5: again in the third quarter in the second half for
• 30:29
  Speaker 5: some reason.
• 30:30
  Speaker 2: But he had a touchdown, so again, that's what I'm saying.
• 30:34
  Speaker 5: Yeah, and I'm just annoyed at this loss more than anything,
• 30:37
  Speaker 5: and that's why I think it's a shorter and sweeter thing,
• 30:39
  Speaker 5: whereas you're going to see very next, like coming up,
• 30:43
  Speaker 5: I don't know if the ad's going to be here,
• 30:45
  Speaker 5: because whenever I listen to Spotify, the ads sometimes pop
• 30:48
  Speaker 5: up random segments, but if it pops up here, then
• 30:51
  Speaker 5: I hope you enjoy Talon's segment, because guess what, buddy?
• 30:54
  Speaker 5: You're next.
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: Do we have to?
• 30:58
  Speaker 4: People listen to Spotify with ads? That's criminal behavior.
• 31:01
  Speaker 2: I mean, hey, if there's ever a plug for Spotify Premium,
• 31:08
  Speaker 2: it's right there.
• 31:10
  Speaker 4: Heck yeah. Anyway, so Talon.
• 31:14
  Speaker 2: So Brandon.
• 31:17
  Speaker 4: What happened in Georgia?
• 31:19
  Speaker 5: This is your segment.
• 31:20
  Speaker 3: Come on. Well, I mean, I figured you guys were
• 31:22
  Speaker 3: going to lead me in a little bit better than that.
• 31:25
  Speaker 4: Oh, no, we're ripping the bandaid off, brother.
• 31:28
  Speaker 5: No, I gave you a transition.
• 31:30
  Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, you gave me a transition, but I figured,
• 31:32
  Speaker 3: you know, maybe like you're going to like lead me in,
• 31:35
  Speaker 3: you know, just be very sly with it. Be very coy.
• 31:39
  Speaker 3: Be very cordial. And then I hit the button.
• 31:43
  Speaker 5: Let me try this then. You alluded to last week
• 31:47
  Speaker 5: with your pick on the Falcons that you would switch
• 31:49
  Speaker 5: the pick between if Cooper Rush was starting or someone
• 31:51
  Speaker 5: else was starting. And let's just say they decided to
• 31:55
  Speaker 5: start Cooper Rush for some reason because Kevin Stepanski is
• 31:57
  Speaker 5: still in his Browns form for some reason.
• 32:00
  Speaker 3: And to that I say....
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: Because what the fuck was that embarrassment on Sunday? Holy shit!
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: I was livid on Sunday. I could take losing to
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: a division rival.
• 32:29
  Speaker 3: I could take the fact that Bryce Young is this
• 32:32
  Speaker 3: generation's Jameis Winston when he plays the Atlanta Falcons because
• 32:36
  Speaker 3: for some reason, Bryce Young, despite not being the greatest
• 32:40
  Speaker 3: quarterback in the world, and I don't give a fuck
• 32:42
  Speaker 3: that he went to the University of Alabama, Brandon, he is...
• 32:47
  Speaker 3: not the greatest quarterback. But for some reason, I can't
• 32:52
  Speaker 3: figure it out. Every time it was Jameis when he
• 32:55
  Speaker 3: was in Tampa, now it's Bryce when he's in Carolina.
• 32:58
  Speaker 3: They always play out of their fucking minds whenever they
• 33:04
  Speaker 3: are playing the Falcons, whether it's at home or it's
• 33:07
  Speaker 3: on the road. And Bryce Young really likes playing Atlanta
• 33:12
  Speaker 3: on the road. Because he really He has taken Mercedes-Benz Stadium,
• 33:18
  Speaker 3: and he might as well take ownership of that and
• 33:20
  Speaker 3: the Georgia World Congress Center that's right next door to
• 33:24
  Speaker 3: the fucking building when the Pokemon tournament goes there in
• 33:28
  Speaker 3: January because that's how bad he owned our fucking asses.
• 33:32
  Speaker 3: But it also doesn't help the fact when you.
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: Have Cooper fucking Rush as your fucking starter.
• 33:41
  Speaker 2: My God, look, look.
• 33:45
  Speaker 3: I gave a little bit of flack for week one.
• 33:48
  Speaker 3: I was willing to be right on that game picking
• 33:52
  Speaker 3: Pittsburgh because I picked it based on history. I told
• 33:55
  Speaker 3: you guys that. I didn't care what starting quarterback. I
• 33:59
  Speaker 3: said I would have even thrown the two of you
• 34:02
  Speaker 3: as the starting quarterback, and you still wouldn't have my
• 34:05
  Speaker 3: prediction to beat the Pittsburgh Steelers. And I was right
• 34:08
  Speaker 3: with that. But then you factor in that Atlanta's offense
• 34:12
  Speaker 3: scored the same amount of points on offense as the
• 34:14
  Speaker 3: Steelers' offense did in that game.
• 34:16
  Speaker 2: And the only.
• 34:17
  Speaker 3: Difference was because our quarterback throws a pick six to
• 34:20
  Speaker 3: arguably one of the greatest edge rushers in the game
• 34:23
  Speaker 3: and probably in league history in TJ Watt. Let's just
• 34:26
  Speaker 3: call a spade a spade. But you get the ball
• 34:31
  Speaker 3: to start that game. And you run a play-action bootleg.
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: You have Jahan Dotson wide-ass fucking open. You could have
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: pitched and caught it like you were a kid with
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: his father in a baseball out.
• 34:48
  Speaker 3: In the driveway.
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: And you run the ball and you die for the
• 34:55
  Speaker 1: first down.
• 34:57
  Speaker 3: And yes, I understand. To most people, you thought he
• 35:00
  Speaker 3: was down by contact. Even I thought he was down
• 35:02
  Speaker 3: by contact at first. I still hated the fact that
• 35:05
  Speaker 3: he ran, but he fumbled the ball and Carolina recovers.
• 35:08
  Speaker 3: And then they drive 30 yards. Fourth and goal happens.
• 35:12
  Speaker 3: And Mike Hughes and Xavier Watts, I don't know what
• 35:14
  Speaker 3: the fuck they were talking about with each other, but
• 35:17
  Speaker 3: they got confused. And Shuba Hubbard just so happened to
• 35:22
  Speaker 3: be so far wide open, you could have put a
• 35:25
  Speaker 3: railroad crossing sign out there and you still would have
• 35:30
  Speaker 3: been open. That's how bad that was. Then three plays later,
• 35:34
  Speaker 3: you have Bajon Robinson run a halfback angle route and
• 35:37
  Speaker 3: Cooper Rush hesitates on the throw. And he throws it late.
• 35:43
  Speaker 5: And it's tipped.
• 35:44
  Speaker 3: And it's intercepted by Bobby Okereke. And yes, Atlanta's defense held.
• 35:49
  Speaker 3: Because the only saving grace is Atlanta's defense right now.
• 35:52
  Speaker 4: Yes, I know.
• 35:53
  Speaker 3: They gave up 34 points. I get it. But at
• 35:57
  Speaker 3: the same time, they were bending as hard as they
• 36:00
  Speaker 3: could to not break.
• 36:01
  Speaker 2: They were trying to keep the team in the game.
• 36:04
  Speaker 4: It was.
• 36:05
  Speaker 2: At one point, it was.
• 36:06
  Speaker 3: 13 to nothing. You were in field goal range. You
• 36:10
  Speaker 3: could have maybe gotten a touchdown. And Cooper Rush knew
• 36:12
  Speaker 3: he threw an interception right there when he threw it
• 36:14
  Speaker 3: to Olamide Zaccheaus. There were two guys there, and you're
• 36:17
  Speaker 3: lucky that ball hit the ground because that was a
• 36:20
  Speaker 3: horrible play.
• 36:21
  Speaker 2: But then in the second half, wait, it gets better.
• 36:25
  Speaker 3: You have Kyle Pitts running an inside seam route and
• 36:29
  Speaker 3: a cover six defense for Carolina. And you watch as
• 36:35
  Speaker 3: Devin Lloyd is just saying, please throw that ball. Please
• 36:39
  Speaker 3: throw that ball.
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: Oh, my God, he threw the fucking ball.
• 36:41
  Speaker 2: I can't believe he's this fucking stupid.
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: And he one-handed intercepted it and ran it back for
• 36:46
  Speaker 1: 60 yards.
• 36:48
  Speaker 3: Mind you. God, was that horrible. I was texting my
• 36:53
  Speaker 3: friend Anthony. He goes by Sharpie. He's one of my
• 36:57
  Speaker 3: moderators on Twitch. He's one of my best friends in
• 36:59
  Speaker 3: the Pokemon community. I was texting him. For the love
• 37:02
  Speaker 3: of God, put in Jack Strait. This can't. Be reality
• 37:09
  Speaker 3: right now. I know Nova is smiling because he went
• 37:13
  Speaker 3: through this experience and he knows that I'm saying everything
• 37:17
  Speaker 3: that he was saying years ago, but it was so, so,
• 37:22
  Speaker 3: so bad. I don't even give a fuck about the
• 37:26
  Speaker 3: stupid-ass Arthur Smith-esque fourth and one jet sweep where you
• 37:32
  Speaker 3: have Devin Lloyd in the mic-back position where nobody blocks
• 37:36
  Speaker 3: Devin Lloyd and he blows up the play.
• 37:39
  Speaker 2: It was stupid.
• 37:40
  Speaker 3: I hated it. Then you have Darren Waller, who basically
• 37:44
  Speaker 3: comes out of fucking retirement and catches two touchdowns. You
• 37:48
  Speaker 3: have Chuma Hubbard, who catches a touchdown. I'm surprised TMAC
• 37:52
  Speaker 3: didn't catch a touchdown, but he still had over a
• 37:55
  Speaker 3: buck in receiving guards. And he had a really nice
• 37:57
  Speaker 3: catch on the sideline. It was great coverage by Mike Hughes.
• 38:00
  Speaker 3: Just a better catch. It's one of those classic ones that...
• 38:04
  Speaker 3: You can't really, you can't really fault a defender. If
• 38:08
  Speaker 3: you're making perfect coverage and they still make a catch,
• 38:11
  Speaker 3: I give a tip. Great coverage. Great catch. But one time,
• 38:16
  Speaker 3: TMAC in Atlanta runs a cover six. TMAC finds an
• 38:19
  Speaker 3: open hole. That was actually right before Chuba Hubbard's touchdown,
• 38:21
  Speaker 3: mind you. Then you factor in the fact that.
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: Nick Folk, again, this guy hasn't missed, didn't miss all
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: three kicks in three years.
• 38:28
  Speaker 2: He has missed three kicks in two games. Like, What
• 38:32
  Speaker 2: the fuck, man?
• 38:34
  Speaker 3: We are just, it's not worth a curse. Ever since
• 38:38
  Speaker 3: Matt Bryant left, we can't find a kicker. We are
• 38:41
  Speaker 3: the Tampa Bay Buccaneers of the 2008 to 2010s where
• 38:46
  Speaker 3: they couldn't find a kicker because they ran Matt Bryant
• 38:49
  Speaker 3: out of Tampa Bay and he went to Atlanta. And
• 38:52
  Speaker 3: then you bring in Jack strength. I mean, it was
• 38:55
  Speaker 3: so bad. You actually had the fans chanting. We want strength.
• 38:58
  Speaker 2: You didn't even need.
• 38:58
  Speaker 3: John boy out there to see what they were showing
• 39:02
  Speaker 3: on the broadcast. And by the way, I'll say this
• 39:04
  Speaker 3: on the, uh, Fox broadcast. It's a little bit of
• 39:06
  Speaker 3: a tangent on this.
• 39:08
  Speaker 2: Um, uh, The game was.
• 39:09
  Speaker 3: So bad that we were actually listening to the Jets
• 39:12
  Speaker 3: Packers game audio instead of the Falcons Panthers broadcasters. That's
• 39:17
  Speaker 3: on Fox number one. And number two, I don't know
• 39:20
  Speaker 3: where the hell they got those two broadcasters for the
• 39:23
  Speaker 3: Fox coverage game. But holy shit, are they the worst
• 39:27
  Speaker 3: team I've ever heard of? my and that's saying something
• 39:31
  Speaker 3: with how bad some nfl broadcast teams are but these
• 39:35
  Speaker 3: two guys they were where you don't as a broadcaster
• 39:39
  Speaker 3: you don't refer at least to me i don't know
• 39:42
  Speaker 3: about you nova i don't know about you brandon but
• 39:44
  Speaker 3: this is to me You don't refer to somebody by
• 39:48
  Speaker 3: their nickname. You don't say, oh, there's TMAC wide open.
• 39:52
  Speaker 1: You don't say that. You say, Young throws the ball
• 39:54
  Speaker 1: and it's McMillan wide open with the catch. You don't say,
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: and there's TMAC.
• 40:01
  Speaker 5: I like to interject by saying that my opinion on it,
• 40:03
  Speaker 5: you don't refer to them by the nickname first. You
• 40:06
  Speaker 5: refer to the name first, then you go nickname after.
• 40:08
  Speaker 5: You do that every single time. I don't care if
• 40:10
  Speaker 5: you said this name, full name before. You got to
• 40:12
  Speaker 5: do the nickname after.
• 40:14
  Speaker 4: Yep.
• 40:15
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, look, I don't even remember the broadcasting duo,
• 40:21
  Speaker 3: but actually, I'm going to look it up real quick.
• 40:23
  Speaker 2: I just want to look it up.
• 40:25
  Speaker 5: I'm also going to go for real. I actually prefer
• 40:27
  Speaker 5: the CBS broadcasters more than the Fox broadcasters. I'm going
• 40:30
  Speaker 5: to be so 100 right there.
• 40:32
  Speaker 4: I'm liable to agree there.
• 40:34
  Speaker 2: All right, so week two, that game was.
• 40:38
  Speaker 2: Tim Brando and Matt Millen.
• 40:40
  Speaker 3: I'm sorry. I hate doing this on NFL broadcasts or
• 40:44
  Speaker 3: just broadcasts in general, but you guys have to be
• 40:48
  Speaker 3: some of the worst broadcasting teams I've ever heard in
• 40:52
  Speaker 3: my life. And again, I'm not saying this because I'm
• 40:55
  Speaker 3: an angry Falcons fan. I'm saying this as an angry
• 40:58
  Speaker 3: NFL fan.
• 41:00
  Speaker 2: You two suck at broadcasting.
• 41:03
  Speaker 4: I have my own broadcasting commentary to make later for
• 41:06
  Speaker 4: a certain game.
• 41:08
  Speaker 3: Oh, I think I do, too.
• 41:09
  Speaker 5: I think I know which one you're referring to. However,
• 41:11
  Speaker 5: I want to add on. Please, Fox, you had success
• 41:14
  Speaker 5: with Eric Collins with that Carolina game against Miami last year.
• 41:18
  Speaker 5: Please bring him into full time. You're going to do
• 41:20
  Speaker 5: wonders with Eric Collins.
• 41:23
  Speaker 2: That was the Charlotte Hornets announcer, right?
• 41:25
  Speaker 5: Yes. He called the Carolina Panthers game last year.
• 41:28
  Speaker 2: Yes, and he was great. He was excellent.
• 41:31
  Speaker 3: You get him with that Phillies guy who won the
• 41:35
  Speaker 3: right to announce like a radio inning for the Phillies
• 41:39
  Speaker 3: radio game. You get those two guys together, that could
• 41:41
  Speaker 3: be one of the best broadcasting teams out there.
• 41:44
  Speaker 5: Yeah, that's what I'm saying. Fox, you got a gem
• 41:46
  Speaker 5: in Eric Collins. Bring him in. You tried him before
• 41:48
  Speaker 5: and he worked.
• 41:50
  Speaker 3: But getting back to my rant, because again, I'm having
• 41:55
  Speaker 3: fun with the rant of Then you bring in Jack Strand,
• 42:00
  Speaker 3: and the place erupts in cheers. I don't think I've
• 42:04
  Speaker 3: ever heard a stadium erupt for an undrafted free agent
• 42:08
  Speaker 3: out of Minnesota State, or just an undrafted free agent
• 42:11
  Speaker 3: for that matter, mind you. And his first career.
• 42:14
  Speaker 1: Pass, he throws it to Jahan Dotson, who it bounces
• 42:18
  Speaker 1: off of Jahan Dotson into Devin Lloyd's hands, and Devin
• 42:22
  Speaker 1: Lloyd returns it for a pick six. And by the way,
• 42:25
  Speaker 1: I'm also going to say this, even though The injury
• 42:27
  Speaker 1: report came out for Thursday's game, and Jawan Taylor was
• 42:32
  Speaker 1: fully healthy and fully practicing, even though it's a Thursday
• 42:34
  Speaker 1: night game, so it's walkthroughs more so than actual practice.
• 42:38
  Speaker 1: That player, number 52 on the Carolina Panthers. Brandon, I
• 42:42
  Speaker 1: say this with all due respect because you're a North
• 42:45
  Speaker 1: Carolina boy. Number 52 on the Carolina Panthers.
• 42:49
  Speaker 5: Fuck you!
• 42:52
  Speaker 3: Because who the fuck thinks that you were trying to, oh,
• 42:55
  Speaker 3: it was point of view. You're trying to avoid falling
• 42:57
  Speaker 3: on Devin Lloyd.
• 42:58
  Speaker 1: So you do the Randy Savage elbow drop onto the
• 43:02
  Speaker 1: one Taylor who is prone on the ground and you
• 43:06
  Speaker 1: hit him in his back and the recoil makes his
• 43:09
  Speaker 1: head bounce off the turf.
• 43:11
  Speaker 4: Now that's, that's you. Yeah.
• 43:14
  Speaker 5: Travis Gibson.
• 43:16
  Speaker 4: Travis Gibson.
• 43:17
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 43:17
  Speaker 4: T-R-E-V-I-S. It's really, really shitty. Um, first of all, if
• 43:22
  Speaker 4: there's one thing that we will never condone on this podcast,
• 43:26
  Speaker 4: it's intentional dirty plays like that. Like even if our
• 43:29
  Speaker 4: own played, even if our own team play, uh, players
• 43:32
  Speaker 4: on our own respective teams do it. I would hope
• 43:33
  Speaker 4: that we would all call that out because there's, there's
• 43:36
  Speaker 4: no place for it.
• 43:38
  Speaker 3: I don't even wish that on the, on a saints player.
• 43:42
  Speaker 3: And again, I'm not saying that as a Falcons fan.
• 43:44
  Speaker 3: I'm saying that as an NFL, like, because again, you
• 43:46
  Speaker 3: would think, oh, again, like we've said multiple times, oh,
• 43:49
  Speaker 3: Talon's a Falcons fan. He must hate the Saints. Again,
• 43:51
  Speaker 3: I don't hate the Saints. I hate them for the
• 43:54
  Speaker 3: division rivalry. I hate them for history. But at the
• 43:57
  Speaker 3: same time, no Falcons fan is going to wish for
• 44:01
  Speaker 3: a Saints player to be deliberately injured intentionally in a game.
• 44:05
  Speaker 3: And I'm pretty sure Saints fans would say the same.
• 44:07
  Speaker 3: I'm not going to speak for them, but I'm speaking
• 44:10
  Speaker 3: for me. that I do not wish for intentional injury.
• 44:14
  Speaker 3: But yes, Travis Gibson, take this to heart. Fuck you.
• 44:19
  Speaker 5: Turn over, turn blue.
• 44:22
  Speaker 3: Like your Carolina Panthers color, and drop over. Because you
• 44:28
  Speaker 3: deserve to lose your game check, you deserve to lose
• 44:31
  Speaker 3: your next game check, and you deserve to be suspended
• 44:34
  Speaker 3: for a game for what you did. That was bullshit. I,
• 44:41
  Speaker 3: and again, I didn't even notice that in the moment.
• 44:44
  Speaker 3: I found that out the day after the game, because again,
• 44:47
  Speaker 3: all I'm seeing is, oh, Jawan Taylor is questionable to
• 44:51
  Speaker 3: return with a back injury. I'm thinking, when did he
• 44:54
  Speaker 3: get hurt? But then again, I wasn't really caring at
• 44:58
  Speaker 3: that point. I was like, when did he get hurt?
• 45:00
  Speaker 3: Then you also factor in AJ Terrell got hurt on
• 45:03
  Speaker 3: that first drive. Now, I don't know where they came
• 45:06
  Speaker 3: up with a groin injury.
• 45:08
  Speaker 2: Again, I'm not trying.
• 45:09
  Speaker 3: To sugarcoat another man's body or anything like that, but...
• 45:15
  Speaker 3: I don't know where he got a groin injury. I
• 45:17
  Speaker 3: thought when he went down on that first drive, I
• 45:20
  Speaker 3: thought he was going after his left shoulder because to me,
• 45:23
  Speaker 3: I would have sat week two after the week one
• 45:27
  Speaker 3: game where, yes, he got away with a DPI on
• 45:30
  Speaker 3: DK Metcalf, but he paid the price because he banged
• 45:33
  Speaker 3: his shoulder on the grass at Akershire Stadium. So to me,
• 45:37
  Speaker 3: I would have sat out. on Sunday if I was
• 45:40
  Speaker 3: AJ Terrell. He didn't. He got hurt. He is now
• 45:43
  Speaker 3: on IR. Fantastic!
• 45:47
  Speaker 4: You want to know what else is fantastic on a
• 45:49
  Speaker 4: much lighter note?
• 45:51
  Speaker 3: What's that?
• 45:53
  Speaker 4: And this is just going to kind of add fuel
• 45:54
  Speaker 4: to Talon's fire already, right? Oh boy.
• 45:58
  Speaker 5: Oh boy. I have something too if I'm saving it
• 46:02
  Speaker 5: for later.
• 46:03
  Speaker 4: So I would just like to reference... Referring back to
• 46:09
  Speaker 4: the performances of Cooper Rush and Jack Strand, where Cooper
• 46:15
  Speaker 4: Rush has a rating of 32.6 and Jack Strand's 35.1.
• 46:23
  Speaker 4: I'm going to throw this number out there to you. 39.6.
• 46:32
  Speaker 4: Do you know what that number represents?
• 46:34
  Speaker 5: Average QBR for the first two weeks?
• 46:37
  Speaker 4: Nope. 39.6 is the rating that a team would have
• 46:43
  Speaker 4: if they spiked the ball into the ground every play.
• 46:49
  Speaker 5: That's crazy. And you want to know the worst part
• 46:54
  Speaker 5: about this? Everyone in the NFL gets to suffer because
• 46:56
  Speaker 5: the Falcons have three free-time games coming up. Oh, no.
• 47:01
  Speaker 3: Wait, what?
• 47:01
  Speaker 4: Are we serious now, actually? Hold on.
• 47:03
  Speaker 5: Yes, we are serious. They have Thursday night against the Packers.
• 47:06
  Speaker 5: They got a Monday night game against the Saints. And
• 47:08
  Speaker 5: then me and Talon are meeting up in week five.
• 47:12
  Speaker 4: Yep. No. More games I'm just not going to watch. Awesome.
• 47:17
  Speaker 4: What do you mean?
• 47:18
  Speaker 5: You're going to watch a week five game with us.
• 47:20
  Speaker 2: No, you are required to watch those games with us.
• 47:24
  Speaker 4: Jesus Christ.
• 47:26
  Speaker 3: But again, again, Evidence of that. Irrelevant of that. Because, again,
• 47:35
  Speaker 3: this is also the second time in the last two
• 47:38
  Speaker 3: years that the Panthers have beaten the Falcons by at
• 47:41
  Speaker 3: least 30 points.
• 47:42
  Speaker 2: Again, I can live with that.
• 47:45
  Speaker 4: I can.
• 47:46
  Speaker 3: Hey, at least it wasn't 34-0 again.
• 47:47
  Speaker 5: No, it was only 30-0.
• 47:49
  Speaker 3: It was a 28-3.
• 47:49
  Speaker 4: Okay, buddy. What? Can we move on?
• 47:58
  Speaker 3: But, hey, look, it might be smooth sailing because, as
• 48:04
  Speaker 3: it was announced yesterday, Michael Penix Jr.
• 48:08
  Speaker 2: Is starting for the Falcons again.
• 48:10
  Speaker 3: According to the reports, because he had a press conference
• 48:13
  Speaker 3: earlier today, he was ramping up his workouts to, you know,
• 48:19
  Speaker 3: feel comfortable because, again, He was saying that he wasn't
• 48:23
  Speaker 3: ready physically. There were a couple of hurdles. The hurdle
• 48:26
  Speaker 3: was apparently he was doing some really strenuous workout, and
• 48:30
  Speaker 3: he woke– so this would lead up to week one.
• 48:33
  Speaker 3: He woke up after doing the strenuous workout, and he
• 48:35
  Speaker 3: felt sore in the leg. So that's why he didn't
• 48:38
  Speaker 3: suit up for the Pittsburgh game. Apparently, on Saturday, he
• 48:43
  Speaker 3: did the exact same workout, maybe a.
• 48:45
  Speaker 5: Little bit harder.
• 48:46
  Speaker 3: I don't know. This is according to reporting by Falcons Media.
• 48:50
  Speaker 3: that he did the exact same workout and he was fine.
• 48:55
  Speaker 3: And he felt no discomfort. He didn't feel sore. So
• 49:00
  Speaker 3: he told Stefanski, I guess before the game on Sunday
• 49:06
  Speaker 3: or probably even after, I'm ready. I'm good. Let's go.
• 49:11
  Speaker 2: So now he gets to play.
• 49:14
  Speaker 3: Now we actually get to see the offense open up because,
• 49:18
  Speaker 3: I mean, yes, teams will still put six or seven
• 49:20
  Speaker 3: guys in the box and i know i just did
• 49:21
  Speaker 3: it six seven because.
• 49:23
  Speaker 4: I i mean i wasn't gonna say you just kind
• 49:25
  Speaker 4: of did it for.
• 49:26
  Speaker 3: Us yeah i know i know but but again let's
• 49:29
  Speaker 3: be real when you have cooper fucking rushes your quarterback
• 49:33
  Speaker 3: it's very easy to stack the box against bajon Now
• 49:37
  Speaker 3: that you actually have a player who can stretch the
• 49:40
  Speaker 3: field vertically and get those passes to Pitts and Dotson
• 49:45
  Speaker 3: and London and Zaccheaus and Zachariah and Bajon and Brian
• 49:52
  Speaker 3: Robinson and Austin Hooper and... Uh, Chris Blair, even though
• 49:59
  Speaker 3: he's like so far down the depth chart, it's not
• 50:01
  Speaker 3: even funny. And as, and if we can also get
• 50:03
  Speaker 3: Charlie Warner out of the fucking backfield on a blitz pickup, cause.
• 50:08
  Speaker 2: It's not working. It's not working.
• 50:10
  Speaker 4: Uh, I always forget Atlanta has Hooper.
• 50:16
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 50:17
  Speaker 4: He is. Yeah.
• 50:18
  Speaker 3: We said, yeah, we signed him back after he left
• 50:20
  Speaker 3: new England.
• 50:22
  Speaker 4: Yeah. He didn't really do a lot for us there.
• 50:25
  Speaker 3: No no he did not but i i yeah no
• 50:29
  Speaker 3: though i i think that i think that was a
• 50:30
  Speaker 3: good rant from me don't you guys think that was
• 50:34
  Speaker 3: one like 25 minutes or something.
• 50:36
  Speaker 4: Yeah that was a long rant.
• 50:39
  Speaker 2: I mean i i i deserved.
• 50:41
  Speaker 4: It after that but look i'm just saying we've been
• 50:44
  Speaker 4: recording for 50 minutes they were just we completed like
• 50:47
  Speaker 4: what three games.
• 50:49
  Speaker 5: Yeah let's get a number four let's get a number four.
• 50:55
  Speaker 3: Oh, by the way, before we get into this one, Nova,
• 50:57
  Speaker 3: I do also want to point out, because we are
• 50:58
  Speaker 3: going to talk about this game, Pittsburgh, New England. Out
• 51:02
  Speaker 3: of the 64 games played, the Pittsburgh Steelers week, I
• 51:07
  Speaker 3: don't know if it was either the week one or
• 51:08
  Speaker 3: the week two game, they had the 61st worst, sorry,
• 51:14
  Speaker 3: the second to worst offensive performance in the NFL through
• 51:19
  Speaker 3: two weeks. The Falcons had the third worst and the worst, right?
• 51:24
  Speaker 5: I also think the Falcons have no red zone plays too, right?
• 51:27
  Speaker 3: Yes!
• 51:29
  Speaker 5: Perfect.
• 51:30
  Speaker 4: Lovely. Love that cherry on top. Speaking of lack of
• 51:34
  Speaker 4: red zone plays. Speaking of lack of red zone plays.
• 51:36
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I was going to point it out.
• 51:38
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah. Speaking of no red zone plays, zero
• 51:42
  Speaker 4: is the number that Pittsburgh had for red zone plays
• 51:46
  Speaker 4: against New England because we love to see it. Get
• 51:51
  Speaker 4: to work today. I'm wearing my Patriots jersey. See my
• 51:54
  Speaker 4: HR lady. She's sitting at the front desk. He just
• 51:57
  Speaker 4: looks at my jersey and rolls her eyes. I said, Brittany,
• 51:59
  Speaker 4: what's going on? She goes, y'all beat us on Sunday.
• 52:04
  Speaker 4: I'm like, you're damn right we did. Patriots won this
• 52:08
  Speaker 4: game 20-3. No thanks to Drake May, who had yet
• 52:13
  Speaker 4: another subpar performance. Granted, 14 for 22, 208. Passing-wise, fairly average.
• 52:23
  Speaker 4: One pick, no TDs. Man, just through two weeks, has
• 52:28
  Speaker 4: not really looked good. He really hasn't. He did okay
• 52:33
  Speaker 4: in the first half against Seattle last week, but we
• 52:36
  Speaker 4: discussed that last week. Outside of this, this was the
• 52:40
  Speaker 4: Patriots' defense's game to lose. Because we made Aaron Rodgers
• 52:48
  Speaker 4: our bitch. So, for reference... Aaron Rodgers goes 23 for 39,
• 52:56
  Speaker 4: 187 passing yards, one interception, no scores. We sacked Aaron
• 53:01
  Speaker 4: Rodgers four times for a total yard lossage of 43.
• 53:08
  Speaker 4: That puts their overall passing total to 144 yards. On
• 53:13
  Speaker 4: the same page now, right? We held Aaron Rodgers in
• 53:16
  Speaker 4: the Pittsburgh Steelers to 144 passing yards. Their highest rusher?
• 53:21
  Speaker 4: was Jalen Warren with 43 rushing yards. We held them
• 53:28
  Speaker 4: to a total of 91 rushing yards. This was a
• 53:33
  Speaker 4: Patriots defense that I wanted to see against Seattle. I
• 53:38
  Speaker 4: don't know where they were. I don't know why they
• 53:40
  Speaker 4: left in the second half of the Seattle game, but
• 53:43
  Speaker 4: I'm glad they made it back, especially against Aaron Rodgers, because,
• 53:45
  Speaker 4: God Almighty, we sacked that man into oblivion. Because he
• 53:49
  Speaker 4: fumbled twice, and the last time he fumbled, we ran
• 53:51
  Speaker 4: it back for six. I'll take that all day, every day.
• 53:55
  Speaker 4: Ramondre Stevens, I'm sorry, Trayvon Henderson, pretty much the only
• 53:59
  Speaker 4: bright spot in the offense. And I know I talk
• 54:02
  Speaker 4: shit about him. Romeo Dobbs was our leading receiver. Three receptions,
• 54:07
  Speaker 4: 96 yards on four targets. I still think the man's
• 54:12
  Speaker 4: kind of trash. Because he fumbled as well. That's fine. Whatever. Overall, offensively,
• 54:20
  Speaker 4: The Patriots stunk.
• 54:25
  Speaker 5: I also want to point out that I think the
• 54:27
  Speaker 5: Patriots and the Steelers are like the second and third
• 54:30
  Speaker 5: worst each.
• 54:33
  Speaker 4: They have not been good. Even though Aaron Rodgers had
• 54:37
  Speaker 4: 187 passing yards, not including the sacks, Drake May had
• 54:43
  Speaker 4: 208 passing yards, but he was sacked three times for
• 54:45
  Speaker 4: 17 yards. So 191 to 141, if you want to
• 54:49
  Speaker 4: break it down to that manner. Trayvon Henderson, glad he's back.
• 54:53
  Speaker 4: 816 carries, 76 yards in one score. Awesome. Great. Lovely. Whatever.
• 55:01
  Speaker 4: We had one interception for 11 yards, and then we
• 55:03
  Speaker 4: turned around and had a scoop and score there at
• 55:04
  Speaker 4: the end of the game.
• 55:05
  Speaker 5: It's fine.
• 55:06
  Speaker 4: Our kicker is mid. Two for three on field goals.
• 55:10
  Speaker 4: Made both of his XPs. No biggie deal. You know.
• 55:14
  Speaker 4: Kick a fucking ball, I guess, better next time. Could
• 55:17
  Speaker 4: have won 23-3. That would have been better. I like
• 55:20
  Speaker 4: the three extra points. Overall, the Patriots offense is still
• 55:24
  Speaker 4: kind of subpar. We could be better if Drake May
• 55:28
  Speaker 4: turn around and get some shit together. I don't know
• 55:30
  Speaker 4: if he's having a Super Bowl hangover or what have
• 55:33
  Speaker 4: you just from making it to the Super Bowl, but
• 55:35
  Speaker 4: we're not looking like Super Bowl contenders. I would like
• 55:38
  Speaker 4: to look like Super Bowl contenders, so if we could
• 55:40
  Speaker 4: please get our shit together and actually have a decent
• 55:42
  Speaker 4: passing game. and actually look like we know how to
• 55:44
  Speaker 4: throw the ball like we did when we played for
• 55:46
  Speaker 4: the Tar Heels, that would be freaking phenomenal. Because, like,
• 55:51
  Speaker 4: can you just imagine Bill Belichick with Drake Mendoza? That
• 55:53
  Speaker 4: would be kind of cool. As somebody who's a Tar
• 55:56
  Speaker 4: Heels fan in college basketball, you know, seeing Bill Belichick
• 56:00
  Speaker 4: coach our football team is really cool. I think it's great.
• 56:04
  Speaker 4: It's got a lot of good publicity. They still kind
• 56:07
  Speaker 4: of suck, but, you know, it is what it is. No. No.
• 56:11
  Speaker 4: because that's a different tangent, though. Realistically, the Patriots offense
• 56:17
  Speaker 4: really just needs to step it up because the defense
• 56:20
  Speaker 4: is here to play, but clearly Drake May and the
• 56:23
  Speaker 4: offense is not.
• 56:24
  Speaker 5: I have to do want to point out something else
• 56:29
  Speaker 5: really funny. Wasn't there like a 4 from 40 or
• 56:30
  Speaker 5: something that you shared with us?
• 56:32
  Speaker 4: Yes.
• 56:33
  Speaker 5: Yes.
• 56:33
  Speaker 4: I'm so glad you mentioned that because I totally forgot
• 56:36
  Speaker 4: about it. I was sitting here watching a game, kind
• 56:38
  Speaker 4: of keep a track with it on ESPN as well.
• 56:40
  Speaker 4: And there was a 4th and 43. No, it was
• 56:43
  Speaker 4: originally a 4th and 43, and then it wound up
• 56:46
  Speaker 4: being like a 4th and 49 off a penalty. And
• 56:49
  Speaker 4: I'm sitting over here like, yes, this is what I
• 56:52
  Speaker 4: like to see in defense game to play. No, it
• 56:55
  Speaker 4: was one of those situations where we wound up causing
• 56:58
  Speaker 4: a fumble from sacking Rodgers, and it was one of
• 57:00
  Speaker 4: those hot potato fumbles where nobody could seem to catch
• 57:03
  Speaker 4: the ball. And it just wound up going so far
• 57:07
  Speaker 4: backwards that Pittsburgh eventually recovered on it, and it was
• 57:09
  Speaker 4: like 4th and 43. Then it was another penalty for,
• 57:12
  Speaker 4: it was some, like, offensive holding or something like that.
• 57:16
  Speaker 4: And they were just so far deep. I was like,
• 57:17
  Speaker 4: you know what? This is fine. Push the bat further.
• 57:20
  Speaker 4: It's not like they're going to do anything anyway, considering
• 57:23
  Speaker 4: their punter punted eight times for 385 yards. I mean,
• 57:28
  Speaker 4: he had more yards than the total of the entire
• 57:31
  Speaker 4: Pittsburgh team. So... I'm just saying that, you know, if
• 57:37
  Speaker 4: there was MVP for punter, it looks like Prince Pittsburgh
• 57:40
  Speaker 4: has got the lead on that one.
• 57:42
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I remember we were watching the one
• 57:46
  Speaker 3: o'clock slate and then we just got that message, Nova,
• 57:49
  Speaker 3: from Brandon. It was just, what the, like.
• 57:53
  Speaker 2: Fourth and 43?
• 57:55
  Speaker 3: Like, what the hell happened? And then you watched the
• 57:58
  Speaker 3: play happen in real time and you're just like, what,
• 58:02
  Speaker 3: can nobody pick up the ball? And evidently the answer
• 58:05
  Speaker 3: was no.
• 58:06
  Speaker 5: Until Troy Faltano. Until Troy Faltano.
• 58:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 58:11
  Speaker 4: No one can catch the ball. I'm like, that's fine.
• 58:13
  Speaker 4: That's fine. I would prefer to have recovered it. But
• 58:15
  Speaker 4: that's fine. Also, not to cut you off, Noah, because
• 58:18
  Speaker 4: I also did just remember this one as well. You know,
• 58:20
  Speaker 4: we did lose our right guard to a really, really,
• 58:25
  Speaker 4: really bad injury.
• 58:28
  Speaker 5: I refuse to watch it because I know how graphic
• 58:30
  Speaker 5: it is.
• 58:31
  Speaker 4: I don't recommend watching it if you If you have
• 58:35
  Speaker 4: a bad stomach, very big, bold trigger warning. Disclaimer, do
• 58:38
  Speaker 4: not watch that clip. Because it's gruesome. It's very gruesome.
• 58:45
  Speaker 4: He's 100% done for the season. Yeah, he's not coming
• 58:50
  Speaker 4: back this season. I'd be surprised if he comes back
• 58:52
  Speaker 4: at the start of the next season, honestly. Because that leg,
• 58:55
  Speaker 4: they called it a right leg fracture. But I'm sorry,
• 58:58
  Speaker 4: that is not a right leg fracture. That is a
• 59:00
  Speaker 4: right leg. My thing might as well have been severed.
• 59:03
  Speaker 4: um that that break was bad yeah.
• 59:07
  Speaker 3: I mean prayers up to uh on when new for
• 59:12
  Speaker 3: for that but yeah no that was that that was
• 59:16
  Speaker 3: just horrible of an injury man um but yeah moving
• 59:22
  Speaker 3: on let's uh let now that we've got the good
• 59:25
  Speaker 3: games out of the way we can run through a
• 59:27
  Speaker 3: couple of these other games um How about Cincinnati Houston?
• 59:35
  Speaker 4: Can we not talk about this? No, we've got to
• 59:39
  Speaker 4: talk about this one, Nova. From what I said last week, no,
• 59:42
  Speaker 4: we've got to talk about this one.
• 59:44
  Speaker 5: I know, but it's like, can we just stop glazing
• 59:46
  Speaker 5: the Bengals? I hate this. It's like the only thing
• 59:49
  Speaker 5: I got to say for right now is that like
• 59:51
  Speaker 5: CJ Stroud played a great game. Nobody else did. Apparently
• 59:56
  Speaker 5: I wouldn't.
• 59:56
  Speaker 4: Even call CJ Stroud's game great because he If you're
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 4: a QB and you're forced to throw the ball 55
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 4: fucking times, what the hell is the rest of your
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 4: team doing?
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 5: Good question. Like, what happened to David Montgomery? What happened
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 5: to Woody Marks? And then, where the hell is the
• 1:00:12
  Speaker 5: Texans defense?
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 3: Well, let's be real, though. The Texans defense this time,
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 3: they only gave up 20. That's kind of.
• 1:00:21
  Speaker 4: It's an improvement.
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, let's be real.
• 1:00:24
  Speaker 3: That was kind of what the whole thing was about
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 3: the Texans' defense.
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 2: I mean, they really weren't giving up more than 30.
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 3: It was the.
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 4: Dalton Schultz show.
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 3: This time they only gave up 20. And 14 of
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 3: them were to Jamar Chase, who had one of the
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 3: craziest circus spinning around like a ballerina during a rendition
• 1:00:48
  Speaker 3: of Swan Lake.
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 2: For a touchdown.
• 1:00:51
  Speaker 3: I don't know how he caught that ball and stayed
• 1:00:54
  Speaker 3: inbounds all in one swoop.
• 1:00:59
  Speaker 5: Yeah, it is. It comes to show you as well
• 1:01:02
  Speaker 5: how much of an impact Dexter Lawrence has just been
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 5: on that Bengals defense. Honestly, they've done a really good
• 1:01:08
  Speaker 5: job fixing that defense. I just hate it, personally speaking,
• 1:01:10
  Speaker 5: because it's a rivalry and everything. I hate this, not
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 5: because the Bengals are 2-0. They deserve it. I really
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 5: hope that they continue to be this good, but We
• 1:01:22
  Speaker 5: got to talk about this. Why are the Texans having
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 5: back-to-back years of slow starts? Are they going to go
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 5: 0-3 again, just go on a massive win streak? Is
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 5: that their plan?
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 3: Maybe?
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 4: I mean, their next three game stretch is Colts-Cowboys-Titans, so... Maybe? Possibly?
• 1:01:46
  Speaker 3: I wish we knew somebody's going 0-3.
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 5: That's like.
• 1:01:51
  Speaker 4: A hundred percent.
• 1:01:53
  Speaker 3: Somebody is going. Oh, and three in that slate, but
• 1:01:56
  Speaker 3: you know, who's not going to be. Oh, and three,
• 1:01:58
  Speaker 3: both the green Bay Packers and the New York jets,
• 1:02:02
  Speaker 3: because they played an overtime.
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 4: Yes.
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 3: We've got two straight weeks of an NFC North team
• 1:02:07
  Speaker 3: going to overtime and the NFC North wins the overtime game.
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 2: No, that Packers game was ugly as hell.
• 1:02:16
  Speaker 4: It really was.
• 1:02:16
  Speaker 5: Can I just say, I perfectly, I perfectly predicted the
• 1:02:19
  Speaker 5: way that game would go.
• 1:02:23
  Speaker 3: I mean, he did, Brandon.
• 1:02:24
  Speaker 2: He did.
• 1:02:24
  Speaker 4: I mean, he did.
• 1:02:25
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean. But, you know, it was ugly. I mean,
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 3: the other thing to note is that apparently the Packers
• 1:02:36
  Speaker 3: have one of the worst pass blocking offensive lines in
• 1:02:40
  Speaker 3: the league right now.
• 1:02:43
  Speaker 5: Jordan Love just can't catch a break.
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 3: He can't catch a break. They can't really run the
• 1:02:47
  Speaker 3: ball because Josh Jacobs isn't there. Micah Parsons isn't there.
• 1:02:51
  Speaker 5: They just lost Jaden Reed.
• 1:02:53
  Speaker 3: They did just lose. That was scary as hell, man.
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 3: You never want to see the backboard. I mean, look,
• 1:03:00
  Speaker 3: we talked about it with Brandon. It's one thing when
• 1:03:02
  Speaker 3: you see the cart come out for a player. It's
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 3: another when you see the backboard and the gurney and
• 1:03:09
  Speaker 3: the ambulance.
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 4: Yep.
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 5: But yeah, it was not a pretty game. I did
• 1:03:15
  Speaker 5: allude to the fact that they also see this rather
• 1:03:17
  Speaker 5: for New Jersey, a place where the Packers, for some reason,
• 1:03:21
  Speaker 5: never play well in. And I did call that they
• 1:03:23
  Speaker 5: would win a very ugly game at the last minute.
• 1:03:26
  Speaker 5: Although I think that's also the blame for Aaron Glenn,
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 5: because apparently due to reports on social media that I've
• 1:03:32
  Speaker 5: been seeing, he didn't know about the play clock. He
• 1:03:34
  Speaker 5: didn't want to try to win the game. He wanted
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 5: to play for overtime. How is this guy still a
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 5: head coach?
• 1:03:41
  Speaker 3: Because he's a nice guy.
• 1:03:45
  Speaker 4: Sure. I mean, that's our reasoning behind it.
• 1:03:50
  Speaker 2: Sure.
• 1:03:51
  Speaker 3: That's the only argument I can come up with, Brandon.
• 1:03:53
  Speaker 3: He's a nice guy. And I would know. I'm a
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 3: nice guy myself. Minus that rant from earlier.
• 1:03:59
  Speaker 4: You know what they say about people who brag about
• 1:04:01
  Speaker 4: being nice guys?
• 1:04:03
  Speaker 3: We finished last. Don't remind me.
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 4: I was going to say they're usually not nice guys.
• 1:04:07
  Speaker 4: But I mean, we'll put that spin on it. No,
• 1:04:09
  Speaker 4: I'm kidding. Oh, man.
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 3: But yeah, the game was ugly. I mean, it says
• 1:04:18
  Speaker 3: something when Jordan Love is outplayed by Geno Smith.
• 1:04:22
  Speaker 4: Geno Smith's not really a bad QB, though.
• 1:04:24
  Speaker 5: Yeah, he's redesigned himself.
• 1:04:26
  Speaker 4: Yeah, no, he did really well.
• 1:04:29
  Speaker 5: The issue was just like the Raiders squad was not
• 1:04:31
  Speaker 5: good last year.
• 1:04:31
  Speaker 4: No, they really weren't.
• 1:04:37
  Speaker 5: That was like that kind of downside of Geno. But, well,
• 1:04:41
  Speaker 5: that's neither here nor there. Where do we go? Oh,
• 1:04:43
  Speaker 5: I know where we go next. Eagles-Titans. And I bring
• 1:04:47
  Speaker 5: this up because I said it would be funny if
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 5: the Titans would win this game, and they nearly did.
• 1:04:52
  Speaker 4: Oh, do you mind if I take this one? Yes.
• 1:04:55
  Speaker 3: Please do.
• 1:04:55
  Speaker 4: Okay, awesome. Yeah, no, because it's something else for me
• 1:04:59
  Speaker 4: because I really hate Philadelphia. I'm sitting over here going,
• 1:05:03
  Speaker 4: Are the Eagles really playing a trap game right now?
• 1:05:06
  Speaker 4: Because how the hell? I'm over here watching the fantasy
• 1:05:08
  Speaker 4: scores and whatnot. You know, one of the lead trainer
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 4: for the place that I work, he is a Philadelphia fan. Like,
• 1:05:16
  Speaker 4: he is from Pittsburgh. Or not Pittsburgh. He's from Philadelphia. And, like,
• 1:05:21
  Speaker 4: he came to work today wearing a Philadelphia jersey. I
• 1:05:23
  Speaker 4: don't know. I keep wanting to say Pittsburgh. He came
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 4: to work wearing a Philadelphia jersey. So I was like,
• 1:05:27
  Speaker 4: all right, cool. And, you know, talking to him, I
• 1:05:30
  Speaker 4: was like, dang, your boy Jalen about let me down
• 1:05:33
  Speaker 4: until he did it. Because Tennessee had that game locked up.
• 1:05:39
  Speaker 4: And I'm sitting here going, this probably wouldn't be the
• 1:05:40
  Speaker 4: ugliest losses I've ever seen Philadelphia potentially take. And then
• 1:05:45
  Speaker 4: they let Jalen Hurts slide into the end zone with
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 4: a touchdown. Well, not himself, but he literally slipped one
• 1:05:52
  Speaker 4: right there into the end zone with nine seconds left
• 1:05:56
  Speaker 4: to play. And you have every Tennessee fan there in
• 1:06:01
  Speaker 4: Nashville had their heart broken at the last nine seconds
• 1:06:05
  Speaker 4: of the game. And, man, Cam Moore, 13 for 20,
• 1:06:11
  Speaker 4: 183 yards, no scores.
• 1:06:14
  Speaker 5: Didn't he get a rushing touchdown?
• 1:06:16
  Speaker 4: Huh?
• 1:06:17
  Speaker 5: Didn't Ward get a rushing touchdown?
• 1:06:18
  Speaker 4: Ward had two rushing touchdowns. He had four carries for
• 1:06:23
  Speaker 4: seven yards and two touchdowns. So he was their red
• 1:06:28
  Speaker 4: zone threat.
• 1:06:31
  Speaker 5: It says a lot about the Titans.
• 1:06:33
  Speaker 4: It says a lot about the Titans. It really does.
• 1:06:36
  Speaker 4: And I'm sitting over here going, what the heck? And,
• 1:06:38
  Speaker 4: you know, and honestly, Tennessee almost did half the game.
• 1:06:43
  Speaker 4: One had a money hooker. Whenever he picked off Jalen
• 1:06:48
  Speaker 4: had just a hair, tiny bit of extra space because
• 1:06:53
  Speaker 4: he took that ball. 92 yards. He takes that ball
• 1:06:58
  Speaker 4: the rest of the way. Philadelphia still doesn't win this game.
• 1:07:03
  Speaker 4: It was a couple of yards difference of Philadelphia losing
• 1:07:08
  Speaker 4: that game at least 27-24. Saquon got hurt, too.
• 1:07:13
  Speaker 5: I think I heard from you, too.
• 1:07:15
  Speaker 4: Yep, Saquon got hurt. I think it was a hamstring,
• 1:07:18
  Speaker 4: if I'm not mistaken, because there went one of my
• 1:07:23
  Speaker 4: fantasy teams. I was like, oh. Man, no, it was
• 1:07:25
  Speaker 4: a neck and shoulder stinger. So, you know, I mean,
• 1:07:32
  Speaker 4: Devontae Smith for Philadelphia, 10 receptions on 13 targets, 117
• 1:07:37
  Speaker 4: yards in a TD. They couldn't stop Devontae Smith. Just
• 1:07:42
  Speaker 4: like they couldn't stop the last nine second TD. But,
• 1:07:45
  Speaker 4: you know, I digress. It was a very ugly game
• 1:07:50
  Speaker 4: for Philadelphia.
• 1:07:52
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I was about to say, what is this more
• 1:07:53
  Speaker 5: indicative of? The fact that Philadelphia can't finish out their
• 1:07:56
  Speaker 5: opponents again? I've been hearing rumors that their O-line's not
• 1:07:59
  Speaker 5: been good this year. Or is this more of a
• 1:08:01
  Speaker 5: negative that Tennessee's poised for the upset like the Cardinals
• 1:08:05
  Speaker 5: did last week?
• 1:08:07
  Speaker 4: I think this was more along the fact that Philadelphia
• 1:08:09
  Speaker 4: just played down to the level of their opponent. I
• 1:08:12
  Speaker 4: think that's what this was. Um, because I think their
• 1:08:15
  Speaker 4: own line is definitely not the best on the league,
• 1:08:17
  Speaker 4: but they definitely played down the tendencies level. They definitely
• 1:08:20
  Speaker 4: played a trap game. Um, and they almost, you know,
• 1:08:24
  Speaker 4: they almost paid the price for it.
• 1:08:26
  Speaker 3: I mean, it's not even, it's not even just that though, Brandon.
• 1:08:28
  Speaker 3: I mean, yes, it was also a trap game, but
• 1:08:31
  Speaker 3: it was also a hot game.
• 1:08:35
  Speaker 4: Oh, it was incredibly hot there.
• 1:08:38
  Speaker 3: I mean, I saw 95 with a heat index of
• 1:08:42
  Speaker 3: 105 in Nashville at kickoff time. And apparently, Nova, that
• 1:08:47
  Speaker 3: wasn't it. Apparently, the field temperature got to 156 degrees. Like,
• 1:08:53
  Speaker 3: you saw video of the water people for the team.
• 1:08:59
  Speaker 4: Oh, yeah.
• 1:09:00
  Speaker 2: Wearing the water bottle on the bottom of the cleats.
• 1:09:03
  Speaker 4: Well, not only that, with those cleats, because the heat
• 1:09:07
  Speaker 4: index was 105 there in Nashville, and it did get
• 1:09:10
  Speaker 4: to 157 on the field, to the fact where after
• 1:09:15
  Speaker 4: the game, Nick Sirianni needed an IV for fluids. Not
• 1:09:19
  Speaker 4: only that, but the heat on the field was so intense,
• 1:09:23
  Speaker 4: cleats began to melt. So it wasn't just that. I
• 1:09:29
  Speaker 4: do think that's definitely indicative of it, but outside of that,
• 1:09:32
  Speaker 4: I do think Philadelphia genuinely did play down. But it
• 1:09:38
  Speaker 4: was incredibly hot because right now, and I say this
• 1:09:41
  Speaker 4: as someone who is actually going to be in Tennessee
• 1:09:44
  Speaker 4: in a week, week and a half, is that there's
• 1:09:47
  Speaker 4: a giant heat dome over the entire state of Tennessee
• 1:09:50
  Speaker 4: right now, where they're just going to be sitting in
• 1:09:51
  Speaker 4: like 90 to a hundred degree temperatures while the rest
• 1:09:54
  Speaker 4: of us are turning around and getting the, you know,
• 1:09:56
  Speaker 4: the upcoming fall weather. Too bad.
• 1:10:00
  Speaker 3: Too, too bad. There's their new stadium, their new spiffy
• 1:10:04
  Speaker 3: climate controlled stadium won't open until next year. But yeah,
• 1:10:11
  Speaker 3: Speaking of teams that played, I mean, I'll say it
• 1:10:14
  Speaker 3: because they were playing down to their competition. It's a
• 1:10:17
  Speaker 3: combination of that and a combination of the bad weather.
• 1:10:20
  Speaker 3: Let's talk about Minnesota and Chicago.
• 1:10:23
  Speaker 4: Oh, yes.
• 1:10:26
  Speaker 2: Okay. Okay.
• 1:10:27
  Speaker 3: Nova, lead us in.
• 1:10:28
  Speaker 5: Lead us in on Minnesota and Chicago.
• 1:10:32
  Speaker 3: Something else.
• 1:10:33
  Speaker 5: Sure. I'll do this one. Everyone's talking about the Bears
• 1:10:36
  Speaker 5: having a high-flying offense.
• 1:10:38
  Speaker 4: Yeah. What happened? What happened to that one?
• 1:10:40
  Speaker 5: Where did that go?
• 1:10:41
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I know. You want to be the highest scoring
• 1:10:44
  Speaker 3: offense in NFL history, and you were on pace for
• 1:10:47
  Speaker 3: that after one week.
• 1:10:51
  Speaker 5: Exactly. And, well, I guess the offense doesn't matter when
• 1:10:55
  Speaker 5: you have a defense. Led by Brian Flores.
• 1:11:00
  Speaker 3: I mean, look, let's be real. Brian Flores' defenses, they
• 1:11:03
  Speaker 3: have been no.
• 1:11:05
  Speaker 2: Small feat in and of itself. They've been very good.
• 1:11:09
  Speaker 3: Again, and also, I mean, you know that a game
• 1:11:13
  Speaker 3: is bad when on a turnover for your team, your
• 1:11:17
  Speaker 3: defense starts breaking into the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse hot dog dance.
• 1:11:22
  Speaker 4: Hot dog, hot dog, hot diggity dog.
• 1:11:25
  Speaker 2: Like, look, that was all my timeline was on Sunday.
• 1:11:31
  Speaker 3: If it wasn't people complaining about the Falcons game like
• 1:11:36
  Speaker 3: I did, it was just seeing that fricking dance and
• 1:11:41
  Speaker 3: hearing that song. And I'm like, look, I had to
• 1:11:45
  Speaker 3: work with that. I'm not going to say stupid song
• 1:11:49
  Speaker 3: because again, it's a kid's song. It's for a kid's show,
• 1:11:54
  Speaker 3: but I had to work with that stupid ass song
• 1:11:57
  Speaker 3: when I was working for the minor league baseball team.
• 1:12:00
  Speaker 3: Cause they decided to start doing that during tail wagon Tuesday.
• 1:12:05
  Speaker 3: They started doing, doing a hot dog thing where the
• 1:12:08
  Speaker 3: mascot came out and we were, and they were, it
• 1:12:11
  Speaker 3: was dancing to, well, it was a giant fish dancing
• 1:12:15
  Speaker 3: to a hot dog song and throwing hot dogs into
• 1:12:19
  Speaker 3: the crowd of 40 people because who the fuck wanted
• 1:12:23
  Speaker 3: to go to a minor league baseball game in Tampa
• 1:12:28
  Speaker 3: at six o'clock at night when it was 90 degrees out.
• 1:12:34
  Speaker 5: Your guess is as good as mine.
• 1:12:36
  Speaker 3: I'll give you the answer, me, because I worked there
• 1:12:38
  Speaker 3: for nine years and had a great time doing it.
• 1:12:40
  Speaker 5: See, that's good.
• 1:12:43
  Speaker 3: Yeah, the best part was the year after I leave,
• 1:12:45
  Speaker 3: they're in the freaking championship game, and they lose. To
• 1:12:52
  Speaker 3: the point where they have a farm report, and I
• 1:12:55
  Speaker 3: know I'm throwing on a tangent here. Whoever did the
• 1:12:58
  Speaker 3: farm report, yeah, the championship ended on a Wednesday. The
• 1:13:05
  Speaker 3: audio recording said that the championship ended on a Thursday.
• 1:13:12
  Speaker 3: I will take a sip of Barks root beer as
• 1:13:15
  Speaker 3: you guys figure out how a recording could be so wrong.
• 1:13:22
  Speaker 5: You know what was also wrong? Apparently Caleb Williams' overreaction
• 1:13:24
  Speaker 5: to what we thought was a career... What the.
• 1:13:27
  Speaker 3: Hell is that? What was that?
• 1:13:31
  Speaker 4: That was my bad. That's what that one was. Continue.
• 1:13:38
  Speaker 4: Don't mind me. Don't mind me falling. Don't mind me
• 1:13:41
  Speaker 4: actually opening up an ESPN video and just hitting an
• 1:13:44
  Speaker 4: ad at the very start of it. Just ignore me.
• 1:13:47
  Speaker 5: Wait, what happened to talking about the Vikings and the Bears? Okay,
• 1:13:51
  Speaker 5: let me continue. Caleb Williams, apparently we all thought was
• 1:13:55
  Speaker 5: a career-ending injury to Apparently, we now know it was
• 1:13:58
  Speaker 5: a hamstring injury, but that didn't help because Tyson Bajan
• 1:14:00
  Speaker 5: still couldn't break through that Brian Horace defense.
• 1:14:04
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, look. And also, I'm just going to
• 1:14:07
  Speaker 3: say this about Caleb Williams' injury. Look, again, when it happened,
• 1:14:11
  Speaker 3: you saw the way that the injury happened. Yes, it
• 1:14:15
  Speaker 3: was bad weather. Yes, he slipped. Yes, he didn't brace himself.
• 1:14:20
  Speaker 4: But....
• 1:14:22
  Speaker 3: At first glance, you watch that injury and you're thinking,
• 1:14:25
  Speaker 3: and again, it's not even just the injury, it's the
• 1:14:28
  Speaker 3: way that he reacted. He was, you heard the audible groan.
• 1:14:34
  Speaker 3: You heard a silence in Soldier Field that hasn't been
• 1:14:39
  Speaker 3: heard since the Bears said we're.
• 1:14:40
  Speaker 2: Moving to Indiana. And he went on a cart.
• 1:14:46
  Speaker 3: He went off on a cart. So naturally, we're all
• 1:14:51
  Speaker 3: predisposed to think the worst. But then you start hearing
• 1:14:55
  Speaker 3: the reports that, okay, maybe it's not as serious as
• 1:14:59
  Speaker 3: it's going to be. And maybe they dodged a bullet.
• 1:15:04
  Speaker 2: Again, we.
• 1:15:05
  Speaker 3: I mean, Nova, you thought it was Achilles.
• 1:15:07
  Speaker 2: I thought it was ACL. Brandon thought it was yes.
• 1:15:11
  Speaker 4: And then....
• 1:15:14
  Speaker 2: And then we come to find out that it's hamstring.
• 1:15:19
  Speaker 5: Watch that allude to the Achilles.
• 1:15:21
  Speaker 3: Technically, ACL is the precursor to the Achilles from all
• 1:15:25
  Speaker 3: previous history, but.
• 1:15:27
  Speaker 5: That doesn't change the fact that the Vikings just went
• 1:15:30
  Speaker 5: out there and just completely 180'd the Bears. Ben Johnson
• 1:15:37
  Speaker 5: wanted a high-flying offense. Hey, guess what? How do you
• 1:15:39
  Speaker 5: always score three points? I mean, all of you had
• 1:15:41
  Speaker 5: a few little blocks, but still. Yeah.
• 1:15:44
  Speaker 3: How?
• 1:15:46
  Speaker 2: Honestly, Brandon, I think you're going to have to help
• 1:15:48
  Speaker 2: me with that one.
• 1:15:52
  Speaker 4: Man, I don't even have an answer for that one.
• 1:15:56
  Speaker 4: I don't.
• 1:15:57
  Speaker 3: But I can tell you who does have an answer
• 1:15:59
  Speaker 3: for Caleb Williams' injury. A nice friend of ours by
• 1:16:04
  Speaker 3: the name of Antonio Brown. Oh, my God.
• 1:16:10
  Speaker 4: What did CTSBN have to say now?
• 1:16:13
  Speaker 3: He said, I'm paraphrasing, but he said it was for
• 1:16:18
  Speaker 3: the hamstring and the car. All that for an injury,
• 1:16:21
  Speaker 3: and he called him a fag.
• 1:16:24
  Speaker 5: Oh, my God. Why are we using slurs?
• 1:16:29
  Speaker 4: It's because it's Antonio Brown.
• 1:16:32
  Speaker 3: Look, I think we can say right now the three
• 1:16:36
  Speaker 3: of us do not condone certain words and slurs or whatever.
• 1:16:41
  Speaker 3: I literally paraphrased exactly what he said on his Twitter account.
• 1:16:45
  Speaker 3: And again, I'm paraphrasing Antonio Brown. So you can't really
• 1:16:49
  Speaker 3: come after me for paraphrasing a jackass.
• 1:16:53
  Speaker 5: You want to know who else has a jackass? Todd Bowles.
• 1:16:56
  Speaker 5: Let's talk Browns Buccaneers.
• 1:16:58
  Speaker 3: Oh, Brent.
• 1:17:00
  Speaker 5: I actually want to lead this off because I alluded
• 1:17:04
  Speaker 5: to last week during our predictions that the Browns happened
• 1:17:07
  Speaker 5: to be able to pull an early upset against an
• 1:17:09
  Speaker 5: NFC team. We all thought this wouldn't be the week.
• 1:17:13
  Speaker 5: But the Browns just said, want to see me do
• 1:17:15
  Speaker 5: it again? Wait, wait, wait, Brenton.
• 1:17:18
  Speaker 2: Brenton, he did it. He finally did it.
• 1:17:23
  Speaker 4: My excuse for this....
• 1:17:26
  Speaker 3: No, but.
• 1:17:27
  Speaker 4: Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on.
• 1:17:29
  Speaker 3: He just did it.
• 1:17:30
  Speaker 4: I don't give a fuck about Deshaun Watson. My excuse...
• 1:17:36
  Speaker 4: Let's be fair, though. The Cleveland-Tampa Bay game wound up
• 1:17:40
  Speaker 4: being on, like, a two-and-a-half-hour rain delay. Which I ended.
• 1:17:44
  Speaker 5: Up asking Talon about because he's in the area.
• 1:17:47
  Speaker 4: Because, like... I don't know if the entirety of that
• 1:17:50
  Speaker 4: area wound up seeing it, but it wound up, it's
• 1:17:53
  Speaker 4: made its way up here. And it's actually going to
• 1:17:55
  Speaker 4: hit my area here shortly.
• 1:17:58
  Speaker 5: Oh.
• 1:18:00
  Speaker 4: It is a bad storm. So for them to have
• 1:18:04
  Speaker 4: been delayed that long, yeah, sure. I genuinely think this
• 1:18:08
  Speaker 4: gave the rest that was much needed to the Cleveland
• 1:18:10
  Speaker 4: team to kind of help them out here. Otherwise, I
• 1:18:13
  Speaker 4: genuinely don't know that they would have won this game.
• 1:18:17
  Speaker 3: I mean.
• 1:18:18
  Speaker 2: And again, I will bring up that.
• 1:18:22
  Speaker 3: Yes, I was in the area of Tampa in the
• 1:18:27
  Speaker 3: sense that we had storms in my area, but I mean,
• 1:18:32
  Speaker 3: they were pretty quick. I mean, it was, I mean, yeah,
• 1:18:36
  Speaker 3: there was some thunder and I had a, I had
• 1:18:39
  Speaker 3: to play with the puppies. I had to play with,
• 1:18:41
  Speaker 3: with Juno and, tequila because they were absolutely petrified. I mean,
• 1:18:47
  Speaker 3: what do you expect? I baby Juno because he's a
• 1:18:50
  Speaker 3: husky and Tequila's a chihuahua. So it doesn't take much
• 1:18:54
  Speaker 3: for a chihuahua to start being afraid of anything.
• 1:18:58
  Speaker 4: But.
• 1:18:59
  Speaker 3: Uh, yeah, no.
• 1:19:00
  Speaker 2: I mean, I, I saw that, uh, like.
• 1:19:03
  Speaker 3: I was watching Twitter and I was watching the game
• 1:19:06
  Speaker 3: and then out of nowhere, like they just stopped playing.
• 1:19:08
  Speaker 3: I'm like, wait, why did they stop playing? Which is
• 1:19:14
  Speaker 3: a legitimate thing. Like, because again, I've worked in minor
• 1:19:17
  Speaker 3: league baseball. I worked at an outdoor baseball stadium. If
• 1:19:23
  Speaker 3: there was any semblance of lightning from cloud to ground,
• 1:19:27
  Speaker 3: mind you, this is another thing that some people don't
• 1:19:30
  Speaker 3: know about those weather alerts. Anytime lightning is in the area,
• 1:19:35
  Speaker 3: it is only if it's cloud to ground. If it's
• 1:19:39
  Speaker 3: cloud to cloud, where like you see almost like a
• 1:19:41
  Speaker 3: heat lightning stroke or whatever, those ones don't.
• 1:19:45
  Speaker 2: Count towards a weather delay.
• 1:19:46
  Speaker 3: The bolt must strike the ground.
• 1:19:50
  Speaker 4: And.
• 1:19:51
  Speaker 3: evidently there were bolts that were striking the ground within
• 1:19:54
  Speaker 3: 10 miles or six months. I don't even remember the
• 1:19:59
  Speaker 3: freaking distance. I think it's 10 miles max or something
• 1:20:04
  Speaker 3: like that.
• 1:20:05
  Speaker 1: But anytime it happens in that dome of 10 mile radius,
• 1:20:09
  Speaker 1: it doesn't matter. It literally does not matter if you
• 1:20:12
  Speaker 1: are at 29 minutes and 45 seconds.
• 1:20:16
  Speaker 3: So you have 15 seconds before that weather alert clears.
• 1:20:21
  Speaker 3: If there's a bolt that comes and it's clad to
• 1:20:23
  Speaker 3: ground and it's inside that dome, back to 30 minutes
• 1:20:27
  Speaker 3: for you.
• 1:20:30
  Speaker 4: And.
• 1:20:30
  Speaker 5: Water delays aside, how... I'm still flabbergasted that this was
• 1:20:35
  Speaker 5: the game that I wish I would have been able
• 1:20:37
  Speaker 5: to predict because, like, Oh, my goodness. Like, where's Baker?
• 1:20:43
  Speaker 5: Why is Baker Mayfield all of a sudden fumbling the ball?
• 1:20:46
  Speaker 5: Where is Vita Vea? Where's Ruben Bain? Why was Buck here?
• 1:20:49
  Speaker 5: The only thing that's worth relevant on that Bucks team.
• 1:20:52
  Speaker 5: I mean, look, I hate Deshaun Watson, but the fact
• 1:20:57
  Speaker 5: that he's making Denzel Boston, the rookie, look really good.
• 1:21:01
  Speaker 5: I'm impressed by.
• 1:21:09
  Speaker 2: You literally stunned him. You stunned him speechless right there, Nova.
• 1:21:14
  Speaker 5: I just care more about Denzel Boston more than I
• 1:21:16
  Speaker 5: do about Deshaun Watson. I care more about Denzel Boston.
• 1:21:22
  Speaker 4: Fuck Deshaun Watson. By the way, he may have the
• 1:21:27
  Speaker 4: treatment that people think Caleb Williams gets. Anyway, hi. No.
• 1:21:35
  Speaker 4: I will never be a Deshaun Watson supporter. I don't
• 1:21:38
  Speaker 4: care if the man has a perfect fucking passer rating
• 1:21:41
  Speaker 4: and has like a 6 TD game. I don't care.
• 1:21:44
  Speaker 4: I will die on this hill. I think he's a
• 1:21:46
  Speaker 4: trash QB. That being said, 24 for 30, 238 yards,
• 1:21:50
  Speaker 4: two scores. Tampa Bay choked this game. And they choked
• 1:21:55
  Speaker 4: it hard.
• 1:21:57
  Speaker 5: I think the better question to ask is when you
• 1:21:59
  Speaker 5: guys are calling, like choking during the predictions, be like,
• 1:22:03
  Speaker 5: Todd Bowles should be fired if he loses his game.
• 1:22:04
  Speaker 5: How is Todd Bowles still employed?
• 1:22:09
  Speaker 3: Um, that's a good question. And look, I'll also say this.
• 1:22:14
  Speaker 3: Cause I mean, Nova, you brought it up. Like where's
• 1:22:17
  Speaker 3: Ruben Bain? Where's Vita Vea? I mean, they were touting
• 1:22:21
  Speaker 3: how great Alex Anzalone was signing him from the Detroit lions.
• 1:22:25
  Speaker 3: And on that Denzel Boston, 55 yard touchdown, Anzalone took
• 1:22:29
  Speaker 3: out his own two guys, which allowed Boston to do
• 1:22:32
  Speaker 3: that spin move and get up the sideline for the touchdown.
• 1:22:35
  Speaker 4: Yeah. Yeah.
• 1:22:41
  Speaker 3: And, and also again, like, like we were talking about, um,
• 1:22:44
  Speaker 3: when we're talking about like just, uh, comedy guys that
• 1:22:47
  Speaker 3: we like watching, uh, this guy, his name is Dre Wallen.
• 1:22:51
  Speaker 2: I guess he's like big on Tik TOK or whatever.
• 1:22:54
  Speaker 3: He did a whole skit about this game and, uh,
• 1:22:59
  Speaker 3: his whole thing with the Cleveland Browns and we're the
• 1:23:02
  Speaker 3: Cleveland Browns.
• 1:23:03
  Speaker 4: I love him. That guy is awesome.
• 1:23:06
  Speaker 2: You're the Cleveland Browns.
• 1:23:08
  Speaker 1: I know you're the Cleveland Browns.
• 1:23:14
  Speaker 2: Punt.
• 1:23:15
  Speaker 3: He came up on my Facebook reels out of nowhere
• 1:23:19
  Speaker 3: and I was just like, oh my god, this is
• 1:23:21
  Speaker 3: fucking hilarious.
• 1:23:22
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that guy is amazing.
• 1:23:25
  Speaker 3: Yeah, so it's like, he was just like, and we're
• 1:23:28
  Speaker 3: the Cleveland Browns.
• 1:23:30
  Speaker 7: And it's like, we punt, we punt, we kick a
• 1:23:33
  Speaker 7: field goal. What's a field goal? Oh, wait, we got
• 1:23:37
  Speaker 7: one of those touchdown thingies. Oh my God, we lost
• 1:23:41
  Speaker 7: to the Cleveland Browns. Wait, we're the Cleveland Browns.
• 1:23:45
  Speaker 3: I know you are.
• 1:23:48
  Speaker 5: We won a game.
• 1:23:49
  Speaker 4: But....
• 1:23:52
  Speaker 3: Again, getting back to the Todd Bowles thing, I mean, yeah.
• 1:23:56
  Speaker 3: How do I put it delicately right now? Tampa Bay fans,
• 1:24:04
  Speaker 3: I know you are calling for Todd Bowles' job. I
• 1:24:08
  Speaker 3: don't blame you for calling for Todd Bowles' job. I'm
• 1:24:13
  Speaker 3: usually one of those people, regardless of a team, that
• 1:24:16
  Speaker 3: tries not to call for a person's job. But now
• 1:24:20
  Speaker 3: you guys are seeing what Raheem Morris went through last
• 1:24:23
  Speaker 3: year because Atlanta had a... Because keep in mind, 2024,
• 1:24:31
  Speaker 3: Atlanta had a 6-2 record, and then they finished 8-9.
• 1:24:37
  Speaker 3: And the team kept their head coach, and then Atlanta
• 1:24:41
  Speaker 3: last year finished 8-9, and they fired their head coach.
• 1:24:46
  Speaker 2: Tampa Bay.
• 1:24:48
  Speaker 3: You might want to take a nice drive up I-75
• 1:24:51
  Speaker 3: and say hello to your neighbors. They're called the Atlanta
• 1:24:54
  Speaker 3: Falcons because right now Todd Bowles is looking very similar
• 1:25:00
  Speaker 3: to one Raheem Morris in the terms of your team sucks,
• 1:25:05
  Speaker 3: you suck, and you're probably not going to have a
• 1:25:10
  Speaker 3: job after December. If you even make it that far.
• 1:25:16
  Speaker 5: It says a lot about the ownership when you don't
• 1:25:19
  Speaker 5: fire bowls after that disaster run.
• 1:25:22
  Speaker 3: I mean, it said something about Atlanta that they didn't
• 1:25:24
  Speaker 3: fire Raheem after it happened to him in 2024, but
• 1:25:27
  Speaker 3: they gave him a shot in 2025.
• 1:25:30
  Speaker 2: So the Bucs are doing what Atlanta did.
• 1:25:33
  Speaker 3: And I actually found this very surprising, listening to this
• 1:25:37
  Speaker 3: one Buccaneers creator post. because I follow along with Roundtable Sports.
• 1:25:42
  Speaker 3: Shout them out, by the way. Their Bucs reporter, who
• 1:25:47
  Speaker 3: does their Buccaneers coverage, apparently the Tampa Bay Buccaneers have
• 1:25:52
  Speaker 3: never fired a head coach in season before.
• 1:25:56
  Speaker 5: You can say the same about Chicago until Matt Eberfuss
• 1:25:58
  Speaker 5: made history.
• 1:26:01
  Speaker 3: Okay. I mean, do we think that they bucked the
• 1:26:04
  Speaker 3: trend with Todd Bowles or not?
• 1:26:06
  Speaker 5: If Chicago did it, so can Tampa Bay.
• 1:26:10
  Speaker 3: I mean, I think it might come down to how
• 1:26:14
  Speaker 3: the next couple of games go. And also, I'll just
• 1:26:17
  Speaker 3: say this, because remember how we talked about it, Brandon,
• 1:26:21
  Speaker 3: when we said Baker Mayfield is not worth that contract extension? Again,
• 1:26:27
  Speaker 3: we said he was worth a contract extension. We just
• 1:26:28
  Speaker 3: said not for that kind of money. Yeah, he ain't
• 1:26:32
  Speaker 3: showing that he's worth it.
• 1:26:35
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 1:26:38
  Speaker 5: All right. Well, that's all taken care of. We have
• 1:26:40
  Speaker 5: the 105 slash 405 window now. Who wants to do
• 1:26:46
  Speaker 5: Jaguars Broncos? Oh, me, me, me, me, me, me.
• 1:26:52
  Speaker 4: Sure.
• 1:26:53
  Speaker 5: Let's do it.
• 1:26:55
  Speaker 3: I don't have anything to say about that game.
• 1:26:57
  Speaker 5: All right. Let's start this off. Broncos 20, Jags 13.
• 1:27:03
  Speaker 5: Another fourth quarter comeback for the Broncos. How does this
• 1:27:08
  Speaker 5: keep happening? It's like, why are the Broncos models just like,
• 1:27:12
  Speaker 5: we play terrible, then we just go to the fourth quarter,
• 1:27:14
  Speaker 5: suddenly we're the best team in the league.
• 1:27:17
  Speaker 3: I mean, they have Bo Nix and they have a
• 1:27:21
  Speaker 3: head coach that my mom calls the Grinch in Sean Payton.
• 1:27:26
  Speaker 4: I mean, he's not wrong.
• 1:27:29
  Speaker 5: The better question is like, where's Travis Hunter and where
• 1:27:32
  Speaker 5: did Brian Thomas Jr. go for the Jaguars? They're just non-existent.
• 1:27:41
  Speaker 4: Yeah. Travis Hunter had four total tackles, all of which
• 1:27:45
  Speaker 4: were solos, and had one defended pass.
• 1:27:48
  Speaker 3: I think he only had, like, what?
• 1:27:50
  Speaker 2: Five plays on offense or something like that?
• 1:27:54
  Speaker 4: Something like that. He's pretty non-existent on the team. He's
• 1:27:58
  Speaker 4: so insistent on being a dual-threat player. You know, not
• 1:28:01
  Speaker 4: the terminology that we're used to for someone who wants
• 1:28:04
  Speaker 4: to play offense and defense. He's just He's not going
• 1:28:07
  Speaker 4: to see a lot of time.
• 1:28:10
  Speaker 2: No, he's not going to see a lot of time.
• 1:28:13
  Speaker 3: I mean, it says something when, look, and again, I
• 1:28:18
  Speaker 3: love Deion Sanders with what he did for Atlanta, for Dallas,
• 1:28:24
  Speaker 3: for San Francisco, what he did for the University of Colorado,
• 1:28:29
  Speaker 3: and the fact that somebody got on prosthetic toes after
• 1:28:33
  Speaker 3: he lost his real ones.
• 1:28:35
  Speaker 2: But, Yeah, no, Travis Hunter.
• 1:28:39
  Speaker 3: If you are to pick one side of the ball
• 1:28:42
  Speaker 3: and stick to it, it's defense. You're not a receiver.
• 1:28:46
  Speaker 3: I'm sorry. You're not that explosive. That's conducive with the NFL.
• 1:28:52
  Speaker 3: You may be, a gadget player, like a, like a
• 1:28:56
  Speaker 3: JJ walk or something like that, where maybe you come
• 1:28:58
  Speaker 3: in for a play where you are the only one,
• 1:29:02
  Speaker 3: your quarterback is going to target. But outside of that,
• 1:29:06
  Speaker 3: stick to defense, man, you're a very good cornerback. And
• 1:29:11
  Speaker 3: I don't see his style of wide receiver play conducive
• 1:29:14
  Speaker 3: to succeeding in the NFL.
• 1:29:17
  Speaker 4: It's not going to be. And the only reason that
• 1:29:18
  Speaker 4: he even got looked at like that was because of,
• 1:29:21
  Speaker 4: you know, because of Sanders, you know, Because of Deion,
• 1:29:25
  Speaker 4: it's the weight that his name carried and the turnaround
• 1:29:28
  Speaker 4: that he made for that Colorado system. But outside of that,
• 1:29:32
  Speaker 4: like you said, he's a very good defensive player. He's
• 1:29:35
  Speaker 4: just not good in what he thinks that he wants
• 1:29:42
  Speaker 4: to do. Just for a record, within two games, as
• 1:29:46
  Speaker 4: far as receiving, he has one target on him, one
• 1:29:50
  Speaker 4: reception for eight yards. And then he's rushed for three yards.
• 1:29:55
  Speaker 4: And that's it. Like, why would you put him in
• 1:29:59
  Speaker 4: on the offense unless you're just in garbage time?
• 1:30:03
  Speaker 5: Speaking of which, I'm looking at the box for announcements.
• 1:30:05
  Speaker 5: We barely have anything in the Broncos. Bo Nix, 22-31,
• 1:30:08
  Speaker 5: 288 yards, a touchdown and a pick. The best rusher
• 1:30:13
  Speaker 5: was Jonah Coleman, a rookie with a touchdown. I can't
• 1:30:16
  Speaker 5: believe both these touchdowns came in the fourth quarter.
• 1:30:20
  Speaker 4: Yep.
• 1:30:22
  Speaker 5: God, that was horrible.
• 1:30:25
  Speaker 4: So is this more of a Jacksonville, I'm sorry, is
• 1:30:27
  Speaker 4: this more of a Denver being a comeback team or
• 1:30:29
  Speaker 4: a Jacksonville just choking in the fourth quarter?
• 1:30:31
  Speaker 5: I think it's the former.
• 1:30:32
  Speaker 2: I think it's the former too.
• 1:30:36
  Speaker 5: And I never understood why the Broncos are like this.
• 1:30:40
  Speaker 4: Sean Payton effect.
• 1:30:42
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and I mean also Jacksonville, I don't know if
• 1:30:48
  Speaker 3: this is any part of it, but They were playing
• 1:30:51
  Speaker 3: in Denver, and we all know Denver is the mile-high city,
• 1:30:56
  Speaker 3: mile-high stadium. The stadium is literally a mile above sea level.
• 1:31:02
  Speaker 3: I'm actually about to look it up just so that
• 1:31:05
  Speaker 3: way I have this.
• 1:31:06
  Speaker 5: 5280 feet, right? Isn't that their motto?
• 1:31:12
  Speaker 2: I was looking at Jacksonville.
• 1:31:13
  Speaker 3: Jacksonville sits at an average elevation of about 16 feet.
• 1:31:19
  Speaker 3: above sea level with terrain ranging from sea level along
• 1:31:23
  Speaker 3: the coast and waterways up to 190 feet inland for Jacksonville.
• 1:31:29
  Speaker 3: So that's about a 5,000 foot difference in terms of
• 1:31:36
  Speaker 3: elevation and altitude.
• 1:31:38
  Speaker 2: I don't necessarily want to say.
• 1:31:39
  Speaker 3: That's part of why Jacksonville looked bad in the fourth quarter,
• 1:31:44
  Speaker 3: but it's possible.
• 1:31:49
  Speaker 5: Yeah, it is entirely possible. Although I will point out
• 1:31:52
  Speaker 5: they beat the Barnacles in Mile High last year, which
• 1:31:55
  Speaker 5: makes this a lot more confusing than it should be.
• 1:31:58
  Speaker 5: And now we go to the other game, which I
• 1:32:01
  Speaker 5: have a really funny joke for. We have the Las
• 1:32:03
  Speaker 5: Vegas Raiders, who were the home team at SoFi Stadium
• 1:32:07
  Speaker 5: against the Los Angeles Chargers. And we alluded to the
• 1:32:11
  Speaker 5: nickel joke because, well, guess what? It was the same
• 1:32:14
  Speaker 5: score for the Chargers as it was last week. How?
• 1:32:18
  Speaker 4: How? how is the question.
• 1:32:23
  Speaker 5: And the answer for your question is 26-14 that was
• 1:32:26
  Speaker 5: the score against the cardinals but they also lost to
• 1:32:30
  Speaker 5: the raiders.
• 1:32:31
  Speaker 4: 26-14 like what what what happens here to where you
• 1:32:39
  Speaker 4: are a team and you give up and score the
• 1:32:42
  Speaker 4: exact same amount of points two weeks in a row Like,
• 1:32:48
  Speaker 4: how do you begin to analyze that? You know, it's like,
• 1:32:51
  Speaker 4: all right, cool. Here we are. We scored, you know,
• 1:32:53
  Speaker 4: these things. And then, oh, well, I guess we're done
• 1:32:56
  Speaker 4: playing for the day. I'm just like, bro, come on, man. Because, like,
• 1:33:01
  Speaker 4: for reference, and I thought this would have been really
• 1:33:03
  Speaker 4: funny if this was the case, that the Chargers only
• 1:33:07
  Speaker 4: TDs came in the second and third quarter against Vegas.
• 1:33:11
  Speaker 4: So I kind of pulled up the Arizona game and
• 1:33:13
  Speaker 4: see where their touchdowns came from. But theirs came from
• 1:33:16
  Speaker 4: the first and the third. So they're at least scoring
• 1:33:18
  Speaker 4: in the third corner. I don't know. Kirk Cousins actually
• 1:33:24
  Speaker 4: looks kind of good, honestly, on this team.
• 1:33:27
  Speaker 3: I miss you, Kirk Cousins.
• 1:33:31
  Speaker 4: 19 for 29, 253 yards, three touchdowns, one pick. Not terrible.
• 1:33:37
  Speaker 3: Not terrible at all.
• 1:33:39
  Speaker 2: And two of them were to Cody White.
• 1:33:43
  Speaker 4: And I'm sitting over here going, yeah, sure. Whoever he is.
• 1:33:47
  Speaker 4: Outside of that, you know, Trey Tucker, five receptions, 119 yards,
• 1:33:51
  Speaker 4: and that's where Kirk Cousins' third TD went to. I mean,
• 1:33:56
  Speaker 4: the Raiders bottled up the run game pretty well, so
• 1:33:58
  Speaker 4: Ashton Gentry didn't have a really good game. You know,
• 1:34:00
  Speaker 4: 21 carries, 48 yards. Not the best game in the world.
• 1:34:04
  Speaker 4: You know, Justin Herbert kind of looks like boo-boo. I
• 1:34:07
  Speaker 4: don't know if, you know, he's doing his best Yogi
• 1:34:10
  Speaker 4: Bear impression and taking a picnic somewhere else with all... But,
• 1:34:15
  Speaker 4: I mean, like, 15 for 27, 192, touchdown, and two
• 1:34:17
  Speaker 4: turnovers is not where you want to be at.
• 1:34:22
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I heard the Chargers fumbled six times.
• 1:34:25
  Speaker 4: They did fumble six times, and Herbert had three of them.
• 1:34:28
  Speaker 6: Hey, Brendan, let's see what we got in this picnic basket. Oh, boy,
• 1:34:32
  Speaker 6: it's a lost ball. I'm going to try and take it. Oh,
• 1:34:37
  Speaker 6: I can't take it because I'm giving it to the
• 1:34:39
  Speaker 6: other team.
• 1:34:41
  Speaker 4: The only bright side of this Chargers offense was that
• 1:34:44
  Speaker 4: Marion Hampton, 23 carries, 94 yards, and a touchdown. That's
• 1:34:48
  Speaker 4: pretty much it.
• 1:34:51
  Speaker 5: Well, as soon as we get back into this, we're
• 1:34:54
  Speaker 5: going to have another talk about this during the Week
• 1:34:56
  Speaker 5: 3 preview. I seriously think this is a big argument
• 1:34:59
  Speaker 5: discussion that the Chargers may end up with the worst
• 1:35:01
  Speaker 5: team in all of football.
• 1:35:03
  Speaker 3: I mean, you know it's bad when the other team
• 1:35:06
  Speaker 3: that people are saying might be the worst in football
• 1:35:09
  Speaker 3: in my Falcons, you have people actually Photoshopping a picture
• 1:35:14
  Speaker 3: of Justin Herbert in a Falcons jersey with the caption, Sue.
• 1:35:20
  Speaker 4: That's fantastic.
• 1:35:23
  Speaker 5: Oh, man. I don't know how low the Chargers can go,
• 1:35:26
  Speaker 5: but they're going to definitely go low here, and I
• 1:35:27
  Speaker 5: would not be surprised if they.
• 1:35:29
  Speaker 3: End up 0-9. Speaking of that, by the way, Nova,
• 1:35:33
  Speaker 3: because that's a great lead for me. So the Chargers,
• 1:35:38
  Speaker 3: as Brandon said, they have lost 26-14 in week one
• 1:35:44
  Speaker 3: at home, and they lost 26-14 at home in week two.
• 1:35:48
  Speaker 2: Did I get that right, Brandon?
• 1:35:50
  Speaker 4: Yes.
• 1:35:51
  Speaker 2: Okay, so. You want to know what's fun about that stat?
• 1:35:57
  Speaker 4: Tell us, Talon. What's so fun about it?
• 1:36:00
  Speaker 3: They are the first team in NFL history to start
• 1:36:05
  Speaker 3: 0-2 with losses to teams that had 14 or more
• 1:36:10
  Speaker 3: losses the previous season because the Cardinals and the Raiders
• 1:36:13
  Speaker 3: both went 3-14 last year. And not only that, They
• 1:36:19
  Speaker 3: are the second team in NFL history to lose back-to-back
• 1:36:24
  Speaker 3: games by double digits with both coming at home against
• 1:36:29
  Speaker 3: teams that had a sub-200 win percentage the previous season.
• 1:36:33
  Speaker 2: Would you like to guess the name of that other team, gentlemen?
• 1:36:39
  Speaker 4: It's the Atlanta Falcons.
• 1:36:41
  Speaker 3: No, surprisingly.
• 1:36:44
  Speaker 5: Is it the Tampa Bay Buccaneers?
• 1:36:48
  Speaker 2: Where is my sound effect? There it is.
• 1:36:55
  Speaker 3: You two are incorrect because this team apparently the Chargers
• 1:37:01
  Speaker 3: are so bad they have set football back a hundred years.
• 1:37:05
  Speaker 6: Oh.
• 1:37:06
  Speaker 3: Because the team that I am talking about is apparently
• 1:37:08
  Speaker 3: a team called the Racine Tornadoes.
• 1:37:12
  Speaker 2: In 1926 they lost.
• 1:37:16
  Speaker 3: On October 10th and October 17th in that scenario. They
• 1:37:22
  Speaker 3: played one more game, and then they said, yeah, this
• 1:37:24
  Speaker 3: football thing isn't all for us, so we're going to
• 1:37:27
  Speaker 3: stop playing.
• 1:37:28
  Speaker 5: I don't know if they're thinking about the Chargers, but anyway,
• 1:37:36
  Speaker 5: the Raiders look good. At least we're happy for Clint Kubiak.
• 1:37:40
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Raiders look good, Chargers look like crap, and yet
• 1:37:46
  Speaker 3: I think they're staring 0-9 in the face.
• 1:37:50
  Speaker 5: Someone else might join them. It might be Miami.
• 1:37:53
  Speaker 2: Yeah, how quickly do we want to get through those
• 1:37:55
  Speaker 2: two games, Miami, San Francisco, and Seattle, Arizona?
• 1:37:59
  Speaker 5: Well, here's the thing. I don't think the Seattle game
• 1:38:01
  Speaker 5: is going to be that much of a quick one,
• 1:38:02
  Speaker 5: but the Niners won. I think Brandon wants to talk
• 1:38:05
  Speaker 5: about it, and I imagine it will be quick.
• 1:38:07
  Speaker 4: Yes, yes, yes. Oh, wait, that's the wrong tab. That's
• 1:38:11
  Speaker 4: a cowgirls game.
• 1:38:16
  Speaker 5: How?
• 1:38:16
  Speaker 4: Look, man, look. You want to know how? It's because
• 1:38:22
  Speaker 4: they're kind of right beside you. I already had one tab.
• 1:38:24
  Speaker 4: I already had both tabs opened up already, and they
• 1:38:26
  Speaker 4: just kind of were side by side.
• 1:38:28
  Speaker 5: Anyway.
• 1:38:31
  Speaker 4: Niners continuing to defy the substation logic. I don't understand
• 1:38:36
  Speaker 4: how this team.
• 1:38:38
  Speaker 2: And they just got.
• 1:38:38
  Speaker 5: Brandon Cooks, too.
• 1:38:40
  Speaker 4: Yeah, they just got Brandon Cooks on their practice squad
• 1:38:42
  Speaker 4: four hours ago. Absent over here like, what? What is
• 1:38:45
  Speaker 4: happening here? I mean, Christian McCaffrey is apparently powered up.
• 1:38:49
  Speaker 4: kind of, sort of, because he had 10 carries for
• 1:38:52
  Speaker 4: 23 yards and two touchdowns, whereas Brock Ferdinand went 20
• 1:38:55
  Speaker 4: for 22. I'm sitting here going, why? But then I
• 1:38:58
  Speaker 4: realize it's Miami.
• 1:39:04
  Speaker 5: It is indeed Miami.
• 1:39:05
  Speaker 4: It's Miami. They suck. I went into this season saying
• 1:39:12
  Speaker 4: that Miami, both biasly and unbiased, were the worst, was
• 1:39:17
  Speaker 4: the worst team in the league, and that Tennessee was
• 1:39:19
  Speaker 4: not that far behind them.
• 1:39:21
  Speaker 5: Hey, you might want to put the Chargers up there, too.
• 1:39:23
  Speaker 4: To be fair, at the start of the season, I
• 1:39:26
  Speaker 4: thought the Chargers were going to be better than us,
• 1:39:28
  Speaker 4: but now they're kind of up there, too. But no,
• 1:39:31
  Speaker 4: as Talon, you know, also alluded to, you know, they
• 1:39:34
  Speaker 4: just got, you know, Brandon Cooks onto their practice squad.
• 1:39:37
  Speaker 4: But what this really interesting thing is, and... To me,
• 1:39:42
  Speaker 4: I liked Brendan Cooks. I liked him as a Saint.
• 1:39:44
  Speaker 4: I liked him as a Patriot. I thought he was great.
• 1:39:45
  Speaker 4: Very concussion-prone. In a very similar fashion to that of
• 1:39:50
  Speaker 4: Luke Kuechly. In terms of his being this susceptible to concussions.
• 1:39:59
  Speaker 4: But there were two teams that were really vying for
• 1:40:03
  Speaker 4: Brendan Cooks to sign with them. And obviously, the team
• 1:40:07
  Speaker 4: who signed them was the 49ers. And the other team
• 1:40:11
  Speaker 4: that apparently, that's a allegedly made a very strong pitch
• 1:40:16
  Speaker 4: to Brandon cooks was the Baltimore Ravens. I don't know
• 1:40:21
  Speaker 4: how well he would have, he'll, he'll slot into either
• 1:40:23
  Speaker 4: one of these teams, but if he can get behind
• 1:40:28
  Speaker 4: a good offensive line, he might be okay. If he can,
• 1:40:29
  Speaker 4: you know, keep his head on a swivel, he might
• 1:40:31
  Speaker 4: be okay and not have his brain turned into cheese grits. But,
• 1:40:35
  Speaker 4: you know, The Niners are just defying the logic that
• 1:40:39
  Speaker 4: I had put in place for them already. I thought
• 1:40:41
  Speaker 4: they were just going to start out 0-2, and that's
• 1:40:44
  Speaker 4: just solely because of how extensive their injury report was. Like,
• 1:40:48
  Speaker 4: nothing more, nothing to go against their team, nothing to
• 1:40:51
  Speaker 4: say that they're a bad team or anything like that.
• 1:40:53
  Speaker 4: I genuinely thought they were going to start out poorly
• 1:40:55
  Speaker 4: just because of how decimated their roster was. I'm very
• 1:40:58
  Speaker 4: glad to see that that's not the case because, damn,
• 1:41:02
  Speaker 4: they look scary.
• 1:41:06
  Speaker 5: I mean, wasn't it given that the NFC West is
• 1:41:09
  Speaker 5: going to be the hard division to win in with
• 1:41:11
  Speaker 5: three mega teams?
• 1:41:13
  Speaker 4: I mean, I mean that too, but I'm sitting there like,
• 1:41:15
  Speaker 4: and that's, and I knew that, you know, and I
• 1:41:18
  Speaker 4: did say that as the season progressed and, you know,
• 1:41:20
  Speaker 4: people became healthier that the Niners would, you know, eventually
• 1:41:25
  Speaker 4: climb their way back up there. I didn't think they
• 1:41:28
  Speaker 4: would start out like this though. Cause they it's granted,
• 1:41:31
  Speaker 4: you know, it granted, it has only been two weeks
• 1:41:34
  Speaker 4: of the season. but they're really good because I think
• 1:41:38
  Speaker 4: about it like this through two games, Brock Purdy, 45
• 1:41:41
  Speaker 4: for 56, five touchdowns in an interception with eight carries
• 1:41:45
  Speaker 4: for 59 yards in one touchdown, one turnover in this
• 1:41:50
  Speaker 4: entire time, man's playing at a really good level. And honestly,
• 1:41:54
  Speaker 4: if he continues this, I think he deserves to be
• 1:41:56
  Speaker 4: in a MVP conversation too.
• 1:42:00
  Speaker 5: What do you got to say about that? Tell him.
• 1:42:03
  Speaker 3: About the Niners game.
• 1:42:06
  Speaker 5: Yeah, we're still on it.
• 1:42:08
  Speaker 4: Man's not even listening. God dang it, Talon.
• 1:42:13
  Speaker 3: I was busy listening to something on the back end
• 1:42:17
  Speaker 3: for when we were talking about the Seattle game.
• 1:42:22
  Speaker 4: Which, by the way, do you want to go ahead
• 1:42:23
  Speaker 4: and take that one over since you're so researched for it?
• 1:42:27
  Speaker 2: I mean, I am researched for it because that game
• 1:42:33
  Speaker 2: was a JSN special.
• 1:42:35
  Speaker 3: My God, could Arizona be any more stupid with JSN? Look,
• 1:42:42
  Speaker 3: I get that he's the reigning offensive player of the year,
• 1:42:44
  Speaker 3: and I still think Bajon Robinson should have gotten more
• 1:42:47
  Speaker 3: than one. for Offensive Player of the Year last year,
• 1:42:53
  Speaker 3: but I digress. But my God, it was like JSN
• 1:42:58
  Speaker 3: was the only player on the field against all of
• 1:43:03
  Speaker 3: Arizona's defense, and they still couldn't stop him. Like, it's
• 1:43:08
  Speaker 3: like JSN is the next coming of Calvin Johnson and
• 1:43:11
  Speaker 3: Julio Jones, where, okay.
• 1:43:14
  Speaker 1: We know they're out there, and we can't fucking stop them.
• 1:43:20
  Speaker 5: He used to work for the contract extension.
• 1:43:23
  Speaker 4: They stopped him twice because he had, like, what, two
• 1:43:25
  Speaker 4: incompletions on him? Something like that?
• 1:43:29
  Speaker 5: Yeah, two.
• 1:43:30
  Speaker 3: Something like that.
• 1:43:31
  Speaker 4: Yeah, something twice. You know, not enough to save him
• 1:43:34
  Speaker 4: from going 155 yards and three scores on him, but,
• 1:43:37
  Speaker 4: you know.
• 1:43:38
  Speaker 5: And you're meaning to tell me this was the team
• 1:43:40
  Speaker 5: that beat the Chargers?
• 1:43:42
  Speaker 4: That's what I'm saying.
• 1:43:43
  Speaker 2: I mean, it was seven all at one point.
• 1:43:47
  Speaker 5: And then Drew Locke finds JSN.
• 1:43:50
  Speaker 4: Yeah. Three times.
• 1:43:52
  Speaker 3: Exactly. It's just like, what the hell? Side note, I
• 1:43:56
  Speaker 3: do believe the Cardinals are wearing their rivalry jerseys for
• 1:44:01
  Speaker 3: this game. At least that's what it looked like.
• 1:44:03
  Speaker 6: It is.
• 1:44:06
  Speaker 4: Again, I.
• 1:44:08
  Speaker 3: Like certain of the rivalry jerseys that have come out
• 1:44:11
  Speaker 3: so far because every team... between last year and 2028
• 1:44:16
  Speaker 3: are going to be getting those rivalry jerseys.
• 1:44:21
  Speaker 2: I'm just going to say it right now.
• 1:44:22
  Speaker 3: I get that Arizona's is like that all white, like
• 1:44:27
  Speaker 3: cream looking coloration.
• 1:44:30
  Speaker 2: It's horrible.
• 1:44:31
  Speaker 3: I like, I didn't like it when it came out.
• 1:44:35
  Speaker 3: I hated it on television.
• 1:44:36
  Speaker 5: It looks horrible.
• 1:44:40
  Speaker 4: Yeah, they didn't look the best.
• 1:44:45
  Speaker 2: And I know my brother hates your guys' Brandon.
• 1:44:49
  Speaker 4: I'm not a fan of our jerseys like that either.
• 1:44:52
  Speaker 5: Yeah, there you go. So that was our final score
• 1:44:58
  Speaker 5: of Seahawks 31, Cardinals 7. The Seahawks still, in my opinion,
• 1:45:02
  Speaker 5: are the best team in the league despite not having
• 1:45:04
  Speaker 5: Sam Darnold. But that's neither here nor there. We have
• 1:45:08
  Speaker 5: one more game left in the 25 window. I think
• 1:45:10
  Speaker 5: Brandon wants to talk about this the most. It's Commanders Cowboys!
• 1:45:13
  Speaker 2: I think he does!
• 1:45:16
  Speaker 5: Woo!
• 1:45:18
  Speaker 4: So, Cowgirls Commanders. First of all, R.I.P. Jaden Daniels. Because
• 1:45:31
  Speaker 4: man got hurt. That was a rough rough elbow injury.
• 1:45:38
  Speaker 4: And if I'm not mistaken, one of y'all please correct
• 1:45:40
  Speaker 4: me if I'm wrong, it was the same elbow that
• 1:45:43
  Speaker 4: he had problems with last time.
• 1:45:47
  Speaker 3: Nova, I will let you take this one.
• 1:45:49
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I had one thing to say about that injury,
• 1:45:51
  Speaker 5: and it was just going to be brought up again
• 1:45:53
  Speaker 5: once we get to the Monday game. Do you want
• 1:45:55
  Speaker 5: to know something about that one? I was watching Red
• 1:45:57
  Speaker 5: Zone towards the end of it after being angry at
• 1:45:58
  Speaker 5: the Ravens game earlier on that day. And then when
• 1:46:01
  Speaker 5: they brought it up on the halftime report, do you
• 1:46:03
  Speaker 5: want to know what happened? Because the injury happened at halftime.
• 1:46:06
  Speaker 5: Do you want to know what happened? What happened? The
• 1:46:11
  Speaker 5: only person to check on Jaden Daniels was Marcus Mariota.
• 1:46:13
  Speaker 5: Everyone else left.
• 1:46:18
  Speaker 4: That says a lot if that's true. Because it makes
• 1:46:21
  Speaker 4: you kind of draw on the question, you know, what
• 1:46:24
  Speaker 4: happened to the leadership of Jaden Daniels that he commanded,
• 1:46:27
  Speaker 4: you know, when he had a fully healthy season, you know? Because, like,
• 1:46:32
  Speaker 4: after that went down, it was the Marcus Mariota show.
• 1:46:35
  Speaker 4: Jaden Daniels started 11 for 17, 96 yards in a TD.
• 1:46:40
  Speaker 4: Mariota comes in 11 for 16, 111 yards in a
• 1:46:44
  Speaker 4: TD as well. It was all in all kind of
• 1:46:49
  Speaker 4: a mid-performance by Washington overall. I think they kind of
• 1:46:53
  Speaker 4: lost a little bit of enthusiasm whenever Mariota came in.
• 1:46:57
  Speaker 4: And Mariota was one of those players I really wish
• 1:46:59
  Speaker 4: he had had a bigger impact like he did. Because
• 1:47:01
  Speaker 4: he did come into the NFL in the same year
• 1:47:04
  Speaker 4: as Jameis Winston. Because they played against each other in
• 1:47:08
  Speaker 4: CFP from Oregon and FSU. So I was kind of
• 1:47:12
  Speaker 4: hoping that the both of them would have a better
• 1:47:15
  Speaker 4: performance in the NFL than what they've had. Instead, they're
• 1:47:17
  Speaker 4: nothing more than pretty much just glorified backups. This was
• 1:47:22
  Speaker 4: honestly kind of a game for Dallas where they were
• 1:47:26
  Speaker 4: just like, look, last week was a fluke. Let us
• 1:47:29
  Speaker 4: show you what we can really do. And I don't
• 1:47:32
  Speaker 4: know how much that goes to say with it being
• 1:47:34
  Speaker 4: against Washington. But Dak Prescott went 26 for 31 and
• 1:47:38
  Speaker 4: four touchdowns. And then he had a 26 rushing on
• 1:47:42
  Speaker 4: the ground. Dallas had a very good offensive game. And
• 1:47:47
  Speaker 4: much like JSN for Seattle, CeeDee Lamb just couldn't be
• 1:47:50
  Speaker 4: stopped either on eight receptions, 153, and two touchdowns.
• 1:47:55
  Speaker 5: Yeah, that was more so the offense I was expecting
• 1:47:57
  Speaker 5: from the Cowboys from week one, which I think says
• 1:48:00
  Speaker 5: a lot about the commander's defense, if I'm going to
• 1:48:02
  Speaker 5: be honest.
• 1:48:04
  Speaker 4: That's always been a rough spot for Washington, though, for
• 1:48:06
  Speaker 4: as long as I can remember.
• 1:48:09
  Speaker 5: But yeah, the one thing I wanted to point out was, again,
• 1:48:11
  Speaker 5: Marcus Mariota was the only person to check on Jaden
• 1:48:14
  Speaker 5: Daniels while everyone else left for the locker room at halftime.
• 1:48:17
  Speaker 5: Why are you doing this to your captain?
• 1:48:20
  Speaker 3: Well, I mean, the offensive line, you saw them taking
• 1:48:24
  Speaker 3: a knee and then they walked away, but I think
• 1:48:28
  Speaker 3: it was More on the side of, like, they were
• 1:48:30
  Speaker 3: just like, oh, fuck, it happened again.
• 1:48:33
  Speaker 2: Like, they were just so distraught.
• 1:48:36
  Speaker 3: I mean, the other thing also, because I saw this video,
• 1:48:40
  Speaker 3: apparently even Dak and CD, like, they were running to
• 1:48:44
  Speaker 3: the tunnel at halftime, and Dak and CD, they both stopped,
• 1:48:48
  Speaker 3: and they were like, and you can see Dak, he
• 1:48:51
  Speaker 3: audibly says, daniels is hurt and you can see him
• 1:48:54
  Speaker 3: and cd look up at you know jerry world's big
• 1:48:58
  Speaker 3: thing the gigantic jumbotron and you could just see like
• 1:49:02
  Speaker 3: even their hearts sank.
• 1:49:05
  Speaker 5: Yeah but it just hurts to me that it felt
• 1:49:07
  Speaker 5: like marcus mariotto's the only one who cared.
• 1:49:08
  Speaker 3: Well yeah i mean now he has to start for
• 1:49:13
  Speaker 3: them well i.
• 1:49:15
  Speaker 4: Mean yeah not only that but like i said it
• 1:49:16
  Speaker 4: kind of draws more into question you know what happened
• 1:49:19
  Speaker 4: what's happening in the locker room.
• 1:49:23
  Speaker 5: That's the only thing I wanted to allude to. Don't worry.
• 1:49:25
  Speaker 5: I'll bring it up again later on, but now we
• 1:49:28
  Speaker 5: go to the prime time games. Um, who wants to
• 1:49:31
  Speaker 5: take the fame for a Colts chiefs?
• 1:49:35
  Speaker 4: Don, you will take this one and I'll take the
• 1:49:37
  Speaker 4: Monday night game.
• 1:49:39
  Speaker 3: Sure. I'll take the Indianapolis, Kansas city game. Um, yeah,
• 1:49:46
  Speaker 3: I mean, Patrick Mahomes, what more can you say about it?
• 1:49:49
  Speaker 3: I mean, Wait, where's my buzzer? I got to be
• 1:49:52
  Speaker 3: Nick Wright for Brandon. I got to hit the button.
• 1:49:56
  Speaker 2: Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
• 1:49:57
  Speaker 3: Wait a minute. I actually do have it on my computer,
• 1:50:03
  Speaker 3: and I just want to read the banner because the
• 1:50:07
  Speaker 3: banner is phenomenal for something as ridiculous as what Nick
• 1:50:14
  Speaker 3: Wright can do because... Uh, where is it?
• 1:50:19
  Speaker 2: I had it here.
• 1:50:22
  Speaker 3: And, oh, here it is.
• 1:50:24
  Speaker 1: MV Patrick Mahomes will return to Chris Broussard's ballot for
• 1:50:30
  Speaker 1: the first time since 2025.
• 1:50:31
  Speaker 3: That was the, that was the banner.
• 1:50:37
  Speaker 5: Um, yeah, no, though it makes sense that you cut
• 1:50:40
  Speaker 5: out there.
• 1:50:41
  Speaker 3: Oh, I cut out there.
• 1:50:45
  Speaker 5: It makes total sense. Brandon wasn't brought that into fruition.
• 1:50:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah, probably, because... Manifestation. He manifested all right.
• 1:50:57
  Speaker 3: But in all fairness, I mean, it was actually a
• 1:50:59
  Speaker 3: really good game between the Chiefs and the Colts. And
• 1:51:05
  Speaker 3: another game that went into overtime because it was 33
• 1:51:09
  Speaker 3: to 30 as a final. Mahomes nearly 400 yards with
• 1:51:11
  Speaker 3: three touchdowns. I mean, he was fine in Kelsey, and
• 1:51:18
  Speaker 3: that means we got to see Tay-Tay on the broadcast.
• 1:51:22
  Speaker 3: We got to see old Taylor Swift. And I think
• 1:51:25
  Speaker 3: somebody tried to maybe ask her out because you saw
• 1:51:28
  Speaker 3: her point to her fucking ring.
• 1:51:33
  Speaker 2: Like, you know she's married, guys.
• 1:51:37
  Speaker 3: Like, come on.
• 1:51:41
  Speaker 2: Kenneth Walker, like, unbelievable.
• 1:51:43
  Speaker 4: Kenneth Walker things.
• 1:51:46
  Speaker 3: He is proving more and more like, Seattle, you should
• 1:51:50
  Speaker 3: have never let his fucking ass out the door with.
• 1:51:53
  Speaker 4: What he's doing. Which is crazy. I'm over here looking
• 1:51:56
  Speaker 4: at his stats right now, and in two games, okay,
• 1:52:00
  Speaker 4: two games for Kansas City has 47 carries for 290 yards. Yeah.
• 1:52:05
  Speaker 5: In two games.
• 1:52:13
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's just absolutely insane. And then you factor in
• 1:52:17
  Speaker 3: that Kelsey had nine receptions for 101 yards, had the touchdown.
• 1:52:23
  Speaker 3: I mean, look, we've known this for years with the Chiefs.
• 1:52:27
  Speaker 3: When Mahomes and Kelsey are on, that offense is very
• 1:52:32
  Speaker 3: difficult to stop. But then you throw in a running
• 1:52:34
  Speaker 3: game and it gets even more difficult to stop. I
• 1:52:38
  Speaker 3: think we can just call a spade a spade on
• 1:52:40
  Speaker 3: that one, right, Brandon? I know how much you hate
• 1:52:42
  Speaker 3: the Chiefs.
• 1:52:43
  Speaker 4: Speaking of calling a spade a spade, here's my insert
• 1:52:46
  Speaker 4: commentary that I alluded to earlier. Who are the broadcasters
• 1:52:51
  Speaker 4: for this game?
• 1:52:53
  Speaker 5: Mike Tirico and Chris Collinsworth.
• 1:52:56
  Speaker 4: Chris Collinsworth, get your mouth off of Patrick Mahomes' dick.
• 1:53:03
  Speaker 4: Because I'm telling you, every single fucking time that Patrick
• 1:53:10
  Speaker 4: Mahomes did anything Anything. If this man fucking looked at
• 1:53:15
  Speaker 4: the camera and licked his lips, Chris Collinsworth was all
• 1:53:19
  Speaker 4: over it praising this man. If this was any other
• 1:53:23
  Speaker 4: fucking quarterback in this league, it would have been a
• 1:53:26
  Speaker 4: small dissection of how the play was bad and how
• 1:53:29
  Speaker 4: it could have been better. But instead, there was one play.
• 1:53:35
  Speaker 4: I think it was a Mahomes-Kelsey connection. that went for, like,
• 1:53:39
  Speaker 4: seven yards, right? So, like, it wasn't even enough for
• 1:53:42
  Speaker 4: a first down. It was, and I quote, this is
• 1:53:45
  Speaker 4: a play that makes the Chiefs specials that Kelsey and
• 1:53:48
  Speaker 4: Mahomes have engineered that the rest of the team, the
• 1:53:50
  Speaker 4: rest of the league uses as a blueprint. And I'm like,
• 1:53:54
  Speaker 4: it's a fucking slant route.
• 1:53:56
  Speaker 5: Shut up.
• 1:54:00
  Speaker 4: And I'm just sitting over here like, what are we
• 1:54:02
  Speaker 4: doing here? Why are we just glazing Patrick Mahomes at
• 1:54:08
  Speaker 4: this volume? It's almost like Mahomes has something written into
• 1:54:13
  Speaker 4: his contract that says Chris Collinsworth must slobber on me
• 1:54:17
  Speaker 4: every time he commentates. I don't understand. I will die
• 1:54:23
  Speaker 4: on the hill that Patrick Mahomes is a mid-quarterback. I
• 1:54:25
  Speaker 4: will stand on that statement. I know I'm kind of
• 1:54:28
  Speaker 4: having some unserious takes. I genuinely don't think Mahomes is
• 1:54:31
  Speaker 4: that good. I think he is the OBJ of quarterbacks.
• 1:54:37
  Speaker 5: The only difference is that he actually has the rings.
• 1:54:39
  Speaker 4: He actually has the rings. That's the thing. But when
• 1:54:42
  Speaker 4: your team has been loaded on like it has, then, yeah,
• 1:54:45
  Speaker 4: anybody's going to win a ring. Like, Nick Foles won
• 1:54:47
  Speaker 4: a fucking ring, for God's sakes. Like, that Philadelphia team
• 1:54:50
  Speaker 4: where Nick Foles was loaded. No one was beating that team.
• 1:54:54
  Speaker 4: It didn't have to be Patriots or Super Bowl. No
• 1:54:56
  Speaker 4: one was beating that Philly team. Anyway, fuck you, Chris Collinsworth.
• 1:55:01
  Speaker 5: I wish he didn't say that about Mike Tirico. Tirico's
• 1:55:05
  Speaker 5: a really good commentator.
• 1:55:06
  Speaker 4: I will, yeah. And also, I'm sorry, because I kind
• 1:55:12
  Speaker 4: of just saw the message, I did kind of want
• 1:55:13
  Speaker 4: to apologize. There was a moment in time that Talon
• 1:55:15
  Speaker 4: did ask in our personal studio chat if he could
• 1:55:17
  Speaker 4: talk about the Jaden Daniels injury, and I just saw it. So, Nova,
• 1:55:20
  Speaker 4: I apologize for taking that away from you.
• 1:55:22
  Speaker 5: No, it's fine. I just wanted to point out the
• 1:55:24
  Speaker 5: teammate thing, which we're going to talk about next, because
• 1:55:27
  Speaker 5: we're going to go straight to the Monday game that
• 1:55:29
  Speaker 5: you wanted to talk about It's Giants and it's the Rams.
• 1:55:33
  Speaker 4: Oh, my God. First of all, man, Jackson Dart. I
• 1:55:41
  Speaker 4: had such hopes for him. He gets hurt early on.
• 1:55:48
  Speaker 4: And they're originally saying four to six weeks.
• 1:55:52
  Speaker 3: And you even saw it on the broadcast, too.
• 1:55:55
  Speaker 4: You even saw it on the broadcast. Exactly. You even
• 1:55:58
  Speaker 4: saw a camera pan down to the head coach in
• 1:56:03
  Speaker 4: OC talking about, hey, four to six weeks, you could
• 1:56:06
  Speaker 4: even see them mouth it. And then eight hours ago,
• 1:56:10
  Speaker 4: Schefter comes out and reports, Dart is facing the possibility
• 1:56:15
  Speaker 4: of season-ending surgery after further testing Tuesday revealed that the
• 1:56:19
  Speaker 4: left knee injury he sustained is worse than originally anticipated. I.
• 1:56:26
  Speaker 5: Go on.
• 1:56:27
  Speaker 4: I was going to say, I have such high hopes
• 1:56:30
  Speaker 4: for this Giants team. And they just, anytime that they
• 1:56:34
  Speaker 4: get anything good going, there is something that always goes
• 1:56:38
  Speaker 4: drastically wrong. I took a screenshot of it when it
• 1:56:41
  Speaker 4: popped up on my phone. I remember I'm at work,
• 1:56:43
  Speaker 4: you know, earlier today. And I sent it to my roommate, too,
• 1:56:46
  Speaker 4: or my former roommate, who's a Giants fan I told
• 1:56:48
  Speaker 4: you guys about last week. And he was just like, dude,
• 1:56:52
  Speaker 4: are you kidding me? He goes, we cannot catch a break.
• 1:56:56
  Speaker 4: And they genuinely looked really good last week against the Cowboys.
• 1:57:03
  Speaker 4: Whether it was a fluke game or not, we'll never know. But, man,
• 1:57:08
  Speaker 4: I genuinely feel bad for the Giants. I really do. Because, like,
• 1:57:14
  Speaker 4: outside of that, you know, this was a game that
• 1:57:16
  Speaker 4: the Rams were just like, If they lose this game,
• 1:57:19
  Speaker 4: then there's going to be a lot of questions that
• 1:57:21
  Speaker 4: the Rams would have had. Because even though, you know,
• 1:57:25
  Speaker 4: with the injury that happened, the Giants defense kind of
• 1:57:27
  Speaker 4: just said, you know, screw it. Because they let Matt
• 1:57:30
  Speaker 4: Stafford go 22 for 31, four TDs and a pick.
• 1:57:34
  Speaker 4: Kyron Williams, 12 carries, 85 yards. Devontae Adams, though. We're
• 1:57:40
  Speaker 4: talking about the big games of receivers here lately. Eight receptions,
• 1:57:43
  Speaker 4: 195 yards, and two touchdowns. That's a game.
• 1:57:49
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, that is that.
• 1:57:52
  Speaker 4: Is primetime key.
• 1:57:55
  Speaker 3: Status.
• 1:57:56
  Speaker 4: Devonta Adams that we saw in Green Bay.
• 1:58:00
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, it was saying something because it's like,
• 1:58:04
  Speaker 3: I don't know if you said it, Brandon. I think
• 1:58:06
  Speaker 3: you said it last week, but it was like, there's
• 1:58:08
  Speaker 3: no Puka Nakua going. into this game. The Giants defense
• 1:58:12
  Speaker 3: was going to feast on the Rams because no Puka.
• 1:58:17
  Speaker 3: And I think that's exactly why you picked the Giants.
• 1:58:20
  Speaker 3: You were like, I'm going to stick to my guns.
• 1:58:22
  Speaker 3: I'm going to say the Giants are going to win
• 1:58:24
  Speaker 3: this game. And well, yeah, that game happened.
• 1:58:31
  Speaker 4: I just, man, I really do feel bad for them
• 1:58:35
  Speaker 4: because they, I think they had figured out, you know,
• 1:58:40
  Speaker 4: a really good identity very early on. And then not
• 1:58:44
  Speaker 4: only did you have that Jackson art potential season ending injury,
• 1:58:48
  Speaker 4: you also have neighbors who also left that same game
• 1:58:52
  Speaker 4: with a right arm injury and never came back. He
• 1:58:56
  Speaker 4: had one reception and they come to find out it's
• 1:59:00
  Speaker 4: a shoulder injury. So not only did they lose Jackson
• 1:59:03
  Speaker 4: Dart to a potential season-ending injury that we'll know more
• 1:59:06
  Speaker 4: about when it's actually confirmed, you know, they turn in
• 1:59:08
  Speaker 4: lost neighbors who just came back from an ACL tear, too. Like,
• 1:59:14
  Speaker 4: I will say this. Like, you know, the Giants might
• 1:59:16
  Speaker 4: have taken away two Super Bowls from us, but damn,
• 1:59:20
  Speaker 4: they really cannot catch a break lately.
• 1:59:24
  Speaker 3: They really can't catch a break lately, and.
• 1:59:29
  Speaker 2: I mean, hey, look at the bright side. Now they
• 1:59:31
  Speaker 2: have Jameis as their quarterback.
• 1:59:34
  Speaker 4: Is that a silver lining? Like, what happened here? This
• 1:59:39
  Speaker 4: conversation still seems downtrodden because I don't think that's any better.
• 1:59:43
  Speaker 3: I mean, look, the way that he played on last
• 1:59:51
  Speaker 3: night or Monday night, I'll just say, look, he did
• 1:59:54
  Speaker 3: not look good. He was airmailing. He was underthrowing. But
• 1:59:59
  Speaker 3: I think I can give him a very... Like, I'm
• 2:00:02
  Speaker 3: talking the thinnest of thin margins for the fact of
• 2:00:08
  Speaker 3: the matter that I really don't think he thought he
• 2:00:11
  Speaker 3: was getting in that game yesterday.
• 2:00:15
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 2:00:17
  Speaker 3: So....
• 2:00:19
  Speaker 5: I have one thing to say, and that goes back
• 2:00:21
  Speaker 5: to the Jaden Daniels thing. The Giants teammates were all circling,
• 2:00:25
  Speaker 5: and we're all hoping that Jackson Dyer was okay. And
• 2:00:27
  Speaker 5: to me... it's a good thing but it also comes
• 2:00:30
  Speaker 5: back to the jayden daniels thing i mean unfortunately i
• 2:00:32
  Speaker 5: have to go back to this one because it's an
• 2:00:33
  Speaker 5: easy comparison like you can look at the difference.
• 2:00:37
  Speaker 4: And that's exactly why i said you know there's a
• 2:00:39
  Speaker 4: different like what's happening in this locker room for you
• 2:00:42
  Speaker 4: know the leadership versus the two because like he said
• 2:00:44
  Speaker 4: it's a good comparison you know you have all of
• 2:00:46
  Speaker 4: these people huddled around their captain hoping everything's good and
• 2:00:49
  Speaker 4: then you have jayden daniels and the only person who
• 2:00:51
  Speaker 4: visits him is a backup qb like night and day
• 2:00:54
  Speaker 4: difference there honestly.
• 2:00:57
  Speaker 5: There's no way the Jaden Daniels memes are that powerful,
• 2:01:00
  Speaker 5: are they?
• 2:01:00
  Speaker 4: The internet's manifested worse.
• 2:01:05
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, the internet has definitely manifested worse, but
• 2:01:15
  Speaker 3: I mean, again, prayers up to Jackson Dart, because yeah,
• 2:01:21
  Speaker 3: I mean, you never want to have an injury like
• 2:01:23
  Speaker 3: that happen, but Is it too soon to say that
• 2:01:28
  Speaker 3: every quarterback in the NFC East is injury prone?
• 2:01:33
  Speaker 5: I haven't heard anything from Jalen Hurts.
• 2:01:37
  Speaker 4: Well, it's already in his name, so it's bound to
• 2:01:38
  Speaker 4: happen eventually, right?
• 2:01:41
  Speaker 5: Oh, God. You deserve to be booed for that joke alone.
• 2:01:50
  Speaker 4: It's fine. Everything's fine.
• 2:01:55
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, we're fine. They're fine.
• 2:01:58
  Speaker 3: Well, they may not be fine, but.
• 2:02:03
  Speaker 4: Like, I mean, it's like, y'all know that meme of
• 2:02:06
  Speaker 4: the dog sitting in a cafe. This is fine. And
• 2:02:10
  Speaker 4: everything's on fire around though. Yeah. Like, let's just hope
• 2:02:15
  Speaker 4: the Chicago defense steps up against Philadelphia next week. Anyway.
• 2:02:20
  Speaker 5: That's actually a good transition to where next week. What
• 2:02:21
  Speaker 5: do you got, Talon?
• 2:02:23
  Speaker 3: Oh, yes. Let's start talking about the week three games.
• 2:02:29
  Speaker 3: And I'm just going to put this out here for everybody.
• 2:02:33
  Speaker 3: So we are doing the predictions and I'm going to
• 2:02:35
  Speaker 3: be keeping the prediction tab going through two weeks. There
• 2:02:41
  Speaker 3: is a two way tie at. in this pickums, there
• 2:02:46
  Speaker 3: is myself and Nova. We have correctly predicted 20 of
• 2:02:52
  Speaker 3: the 32 games and we have a five game lead
• 2:02:56
  Speaker 3: over Brandon Nova. What do you have to say about that?
• 2:02:59
  Speaker 5: Nothing. I really don't. That's not indicative on us.
• 2:03:05
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 2:03:06
  Speaker 2: It's not indicative on us. It's just that Brandon doesn't
• 2:03:08
  Speaker 2: know how to pick games.
• 2:03:09
  Speaker 4: So no, to be fair, to be fair, First of all,
• 2:03:14
  Speaker 4: I didn't know we were making a competition out of it. Otherwise,
• 2:03:16
  Speaker 4: I would have been drastically different over these first two weeks.
• 2:03:19
  Speaker 4: I played underdog the first two weeks, honestly. Second of all,
• 2:03:24
  Speaker 4: we would have played serious. I got you. I'll make
• 2:03:27
  Speaker 4: up this five-game gap in no time.
• 2:03:29
  Speaker 5: We're counting on it. I was not the one that
• 2:03:33
  Speaker 5: brought it up. Talon brought it up.
• 2:03:35
  Speaker 2: I did bring it up, and also, hold on a second.
• 2:03:39
  Speaker 3: I'm going to do my fancy French narrator for Brandon
• 2:03:43
  Speaker 3: because he'll be catching up to us in no time. 2,000
• 2:03:49
  Speaker 3: years later.
• 2:03:50
  Speaker 4: I don't know about that one, buddy, because speaking of 2,000
• 2:03:55
  Speaker 4: years later, it's probably going to take 2,000 years for
• 2:03:57
  Speaker 4: this Atlanta offense to catch up to Green Bay.
• 2:03:59
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 2:04:01
  Speaker 3: Okay, let's... Yeah, let's... All right, let's let me have
• 2:04:08
  Speaker 3: it for this Thursday because I will... Because I'll be
• 2:04:12
  Speaker 3: telling you guys this. I'll be casting my Pokemon tournament
• 2:04:16
  Speaker 3: on Thursday while I am watching this game live. So I'm.
• 2:04:23
  Speaker 2: Just excited to see competent quarterback.
• 2:04:25
  Speaker 3: Play on Thursday from my team because, again... I have
• 2:04:31
  Speaker 3: hooked my train onto the Michael Penix wagon, mostly because
• 2:04:35
  Speaker 3: I'm left-handed like Michael is.
• 2:04:38
  Speaker 2: But I like what he does.
• 2:04:42
  Speaker 3: And this was a very impressive stat before his injury
• 2:04:46
  Speaker 3: last year. He had the lowest interception percentage in the
• 2:04:53
  Speaker 3: league at 1.1% last year. So by intercept, I mean,
• 2:05:00
  Speaker 3: interception worthy passes. So out of every pass he threw
• 2:05:06
  Speaker 3: only 1.1% of them were categorized as could be intercepted
• 2:05:13
  Speaker 3: or were intercepted because he did throw three. And if
• 2:05:16
  Speaker 3: I'm not mistaken, two of them were in that 30
• 2:05:18
  Speaker 3: to nothing dropping at the hands of the Panthers and
• 2:05:21
  Speaker 3: that 30 to nothing shutout that we don't talk about.
• 2:05:26
  Speaker 3: I just got to remember which game was the other
• 2:05:30
  Speaker 3: interception because he didn't throw one against Tampa.
• 2:05:32
  Speaker 2: He didn't throw one against– oh.
• 2:05:34
  Speaker 7: Wait, no.
• 2:05:37
  Speaker 3: Wait, I think it was Washington in week four, and
• 2:05:39
  Speaker 3: then he didn't throw another interception for the rest of
• 2:05:41
  Speaker 3: the year.
• 2:05:41
  Speaker 2: But needless to.
• 2:05:42
  Speaker 3: Say, I am riding with my Falcons.
• 2:05:47
  Speaker 2: Brandon, let me have it.
• 2:05:52
  Speaker 4: It's definitely Green Bay. You're playing in Lambeau. Like, you're
• 2:05:57
  Speaker 4: coming off with a QB who is allegedly ready for,
• 2:06:02
  Speaker 4: you know, full action play. And you're... The only thing
• 2:06:10
  Speaker 4: you have going for your team is B. John Robinson.
• 2:06:15
  Speaker 4: That's it. That is the Atlanta Falcons. I think Green
• 2:06:18
  Speaker 4: Bay wins this. It might just be about like a touchdown,
• 2:06:20
  Speaker 4: but I think Green Bay wins it.
• 2:06:23
  Speaker 5: I actually never got to bring this up during the
• 2:06:25
  Speaker 5: middle of Talents, right? But I want to fuel the
• 2:06:27
  Speaker 5: fire even worse.
• 2:06:28
  Speaker 3: Oh, God damn it.
• 2:06:31
  Speaker 5: Do you guys know about the YouTuber Tub Frog?
• 2:06:35
  Speaker 4: No.
• 2:06:36
  Speaker 3: Never heard of him. Okay.
• 2:06:37
  Speaker 5: Well, they're a rising NFL, you know, recapper, NFL YouTuber.
• 2:06:41
  Speaker 5: And I watched their recap today. And do you know
• 2:06:44
  Speaker 5: what he said when he was recapping Panthers Falcons?
• 2:06:49
  Speaker 3: I'm assuming you're going to tell me, and then I'm
• 2:06:52
  Speaker 3: going to hate this guy even further, and then I'm
• 2:06:55
  Speaker 3: going to go watch the recap and hate him even more.
• 2:06:59
  Speaker 5: He said that the Falcons are not going to do anything,
• 2:07:01
  Speaker 5: that Bijan's the new age, Barry Sanders, and that they
• 2:07:04
  Speaker 5: should trade him, because what are you going to do?
• 2:07:10
  Speaker 3: I mean, here's the thing, though. Barry Sanders wasn't traded.
• 2:07:12
  Speaker 3: Barry Sanders retired. So the guy's already wrong. The guy's
• 2:07:19
  Speaker 3: already an idiot. Like, look, I get the comparison for
• 2:07:28
  Speaker 3: Bajon to modern day Barry Sanders. I get that.
• 2:07:31
  Speaker 2: I respect that.
• 2:07:33
  Speaker 3: But again, Barry Sanders wasn't traded. Barry Sanders retired from Detroit.
• 2:07:40
  Speaker 3: He didn't get traded out of Detroit. He didn't get
• 2:07:43
  Speaker 3: released from Detroit. He said, I don't want to play
• 2:07:47
  Speaker 3: football anymore. So this, what was it? Tub frog.
• 2:07:53
  Speaker 5: Yeah. Tub frog. Yeah.
• 2:07:54
  Speaker 3: You're an idiot.
• 2:07:59
  Speaker 5: Anyway, my pick is the. Packers. I don't think it
• 2:08:00
  Speaker 5: would be close at all.
• 2:08:03
  Speaker 4: All right.
• 2:08:04
  Speaker 3: So I, again, I mean, I I'm riding with Penix
• 2:08:09
  Speaker 3: this week. I, again, I, I think you guys can
• 2:08:12
  Speaker 3: agree though.
• 2:08:13
  Speaker 2: The offense will look more competent than it has in
• 2:08:15
  Speaker 2: the last two weeks.
• 2:08:18
  Speaker 5: They'll only hit the red zone two times. Calm down.
• 2:08:23
  Speaker 2: But we haven't hit the red zone once.
• 2:08:25
  Speaker 5: That's the joke.
• 2:08:28
  Speaker 3: Oh, my goodness. Brandon, I think I might be getting
• 2:08:33
  Speaker 3: too old. You might have to take me around the back.
• 2:08:38
  Speaker 4: Come on, old yeller.
• 2:08:43
  Speaker 3: All right, moving on. Let's go to the next game
• 2:08:47
  Speaker 3: on the list, which is the Los Angeles Chargers at
• 2:08:51
  Speaker 3: the Buffalo Bills. How quickly is Buffalo going to murder
• 2:08:55
  Speaker 3: the Chargers?
• 2:08:58
  Speaker 4: Very, very quickly.
• 2:08:59
  Speaker 5: The better question is, will the Bills defense suffer again?
• 2:09:04
  Speaker 2: Not against this Chargers team, if you ask me.
• 2:09:08
  Speaker 4: No, I don't know. I think Chargers put up a
• 2:09:14
  Speaker 4: little bit of a fight, but then it's just one
• 2:09:16
  Speaker 4: of those situations where, you know, Chargers are going to
• 2:09:19
  Speaker 4: score 14 points and then just turn around and take
• 2:09:21
  Speaker 4: a nap again.
• 2:09:21
  Speaker 5: Look, we're not going to end three games in a
• 2:09:25
  Speaker 5: row 26-14, okay?
• 2:09:27
  Speaker 4: I never said 26-14. I just said they scored 14
• 2:09:29
  Speaker 4: and called a nap.
• 2:09:31
  Speaker 3: Could you imagine if that game actually does end 26-14?
• 2:09:34
  Speaker 3: We'd all call out.
• 2:09:35
  Speaker 5: The NFL for, like, alluding. or whatever the word is.
• 2:09:44
  Speaker 4: Colluding?
• 2:09:45
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 2:09:47
  Speaker 4: Foreshadowing.
• 2:09:49
  Speaker 5: If this ends up being 26 to 14, I don't
• 2:09:52
  Speaker 5: know what we're going to tell you guys.
• 2:09:55
  Speaker 2: I think Nova should eat his hat.
• 2:09:58
  Speaker 5: I can't even eat hats.
• 2:10:00
  Speaker 3: That's the joke.
• 2:10:03
  Speaker 4: Look, I'm sorry. If our buddy can turn around and
• 2:10:07
  Speaker 4: eat a piece of shoe... on Twitter over a Pokemon prediction, then,
• 2:10:14
  Speaker 4: you know, I think Talon can cut off a piece
• 2:10:15
  Speaker 4: of his hat. So it's doable.
• 2:10:17
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I do think the Bills win, but I am
• 2:10:21
  Speaker 5: really afraid that, you know, the Bills are going to
• 2:10:24
  Speaker 5: repeat the Josh Allen-Codwell script because the defense can't defend.
• 2:10:26
  Speaker 3: But, you know.
• 2:10:28
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 2:10:29
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 2:10:31
  Speaker 3: Next game on the predictions. Carolina Panthers at Cincinnati Bengals.
• 2:10:37
  Speaker 5: Wrong team.
• 2:10:40
  Speaker 3: Wrong team.
• 2:10:41
  Speaker 5: It says it's the Browns, no?
• 2:10:43
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it's the Browns.
• 2:10:46
  Speaker 2: Oh.
• 2:10:47
  Speaker 4: Oh, fuck.
• 2:10:47
  Speaker 5: I wrote it wrong. Hall opener for the Browns. Oh, right.
• 2:10:54
  Speaker 2: I forgot.
• 2:10:55
  Speaker 3: Yeah, because Deshaun Watson, Brandon's favorite quarterback of all time,
• 2:11:00
  Speaker 3: is starting this game, most likely.
• 2:11:02
  Speaker 4: I'm going to burn your car down.
• 2:11:13
  Speaker 5: Bro tried to save himself from his own misery. He
• 2:11:15
  Speaker 5: gets roasted.
• 2:11:18
  Speaker 4: Literally.
• 2:11:18
  Speaker 3: I mean, I think I know who Brandon's picking, right?
• 2:11:27
  Speaker 4: Carolina.
• 2:11:29
  Speaker 5: Carolina.
• 2:11:30
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I think it's Carolina by two scores.
• 2:11:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm kind of riding with Carolina, but I would
• 2:11:39
  Speaker 3: not be surprised if Shador plays in this game if
• 2:11:42
  Speaker 3: Deshaun shits the bed.
• 2:11:43
  Speaker 4: We said that last week and look what happened.
• 2:11:48
  Speaker 3: But again, I mean, Deshaun didn't shit the bed. I mean,
• 2:11:53
  Speaker 3: he played so well that fuck. Oh, that fucking TJ
• 2:11:56
  Speaker 3: Houshman Zada. And I can't believe I pronounce his last
• 2:11:59
  Speaker 3: name correctly. He was trying to insinuate that Deshaun Watson
• 2:12:03
  Speaker 3: looks like a more competent quarterback now than he did
• 2:12:06
  Speaker 3: with Kevin Stefanski.
• 2:12:11
  Speaker 5: Why do I agree?
• 2:12:12
  Speaker 4: Why do.
• 2:12:14
  Speaker 5: I agree?
• 2:12:16
  Speaker 4: It's not a very strong take, but it's, it's, it's doable.
• 2:12:20
  Speaker 5: All right. Now we can go on to Talon's mistake.
• 2:12:23
  Speaker 5: You wanted to see the Bengals at home?
• 2:12:25
  Speaker 4: Nope.
• 2:12:25
  Speaker 5: They're on the road at Akers for San Diego. It's
• 2:12:27
  Speaker 5: Bengals Steelers.
• 2:12:29
  Speaker 3: Give me the Bengals on the road.
• 2:12:31
  Speaker 4: Give me the Bengals on the road.
• 2:12:34
  Speaker 5: Do I want to be the first one to strays away?
• 2:12:36
  Speaker 3: Well, technically, I'm already the first one because you guys
• 2:12:41
  Speaker 3: both picked Green Bay and I picked Atlanta.
• 2:12:44
  Speaker 5: Because my thing is, do we see the Steeler BS
• 2:12:48
  Speaker 5: happen again? Because for some reason, the Steelers always consistently
• 2:12:51
  Speaker 5: beat the Bengals no matter what happens or no matter
• 2:12:53
  Speaker 5: how good the Bengals look. And you know what? I
• 2:12:57
  Speaker 5: think it happens again. The Steelers are going to BS
• 2:12:59
  Speaker 5: their way into a win that they shouldn't have won.
• 2:13:01
  Speaker 3: They're going to do it.
• 2:13:02
  Speaker 5: I'm picking Pittsburgh. Ooh, all right.
• 2:13:07
  Speaker 3: All right, let's get through some of these weaker games then.
• 2:13:11
  Speaker 3: And again, we apologize, but we don't apologize because these
• 2:13:15
  Speaker 3: games are probably going to be horrible to watch, even
• 2:13:17
  Speaker 3: for the local markets.
• 2:13:19
  Speaker 2: First up, Jets and Lions. I don't think that's a
• 2:13:25
  Speaker 2: weak game.
• 2:13:25
  Speaker 4: I don't think that's going to be a weak game either.
• 2:13:29
  Speaker 4: I would like to see the Jets finally figure out
• 2:13:33
  Speaker 4: how to close out a game for once and actually
• 2:13:35
  Speaker 4: look how played he's in doing it. But at the
• 2:13:37
  Speaker 4: same time, Jameer Gibbs exists.
• 2:13:43
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, honestly, I'm picking the Lions in this
• 2:13:47
  Speaker 3: game mostly because Aaron Glenn's returning to Detroit. You don't
• 2:13:52
  Speaker 3: think Dan Campbell wants to, you know, have some fun.
• 2:13:56
  Speaker 3: I'm not going to say they're going to run up
• 2:13:59
  Speaker 3: the score on Aaron Glenn, but you don't think Dan
• 2:14:03
  Speaker 3: Campbell wants to You know, be like, you know, you
• 2:14:06
  Speaker 3: had your chance to stay with us and you took
• 2:14:09
  Speaker 3: a head coaching job.
• 2:14:10
  Speaker 2: So now I'm going to kick your ass.
• 2:14:14
  Speaker 5: You say that until you see the Lions secondary happen again. However,
• 2:14:19
  Speaker 5: I think the Lions do run away with this game,
• 2:14:22
  Speaker 5: but do not be surprised at this sense of ugly.
• 2:14:26
  Speaker 4: Like a 9-3 game?
• 2:14:29
  Speaker 3: No, ew.
• 2:14:31
  Speaker 4: Ew, no. That'll never happen with this one.
• 2:14:32
  Speaker 5: No, I imagine like a 20-20 tie to a Lions'
• 2:14:35
  Speaker 5: last-second field goal. I wouldn't be surprised if that's the result.
• 2:14:37
  Speaker 4: What? I think that one's pretty strong.
• 2:14:42
  Speaker 5: Because apparently the Jets can contest now.
• 2:14:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah, um.
• 2:14:50
  Speaker 5: Like, I don't think they're going to win, but they
• 2:14:52
  Speaker 5: can somehow compete now.
• 2:14:54
  Speaker 2: I'll say this.
• 2:14:55
  Speaker 3: If the Jets do shock the Detroit Lions and win
• 2:14:59
  Speaker 3: that game, we might have to start talking about them
• 2:15:02
  Speaker 3: as a potential contender in the AFC East this year.
• 2:15:06
  Speaker 4: Let's not go too crazy. Let's not go too crazy now.
• 2:15:12
  Speaker 4: All right.
• 2:15:12
  Speaker 5: From one New York team to another Titans Giants at
• 2:15:16
  Speaker 5: East Rutherford, New Jersey.
• 2:15:22
  Speaker 3: I apologize to the greater East Rutherford, New Jersey, the
• 2:15:26
  Speaker 3: state of New Jersey, the state of New York, the
• 2:15:29
  Speaker 3: area of long Island and everything between there and Nashville.
• 2:15:39
  Speaker 4: This one could go either way. Honestly, it really could. Yeah.
• 2:15:44
  Speaker 5: That's the worst part.
• 2:15:46
  Speaker 4: If it's not Philadelphia playing a trap game, it's Tennessee
• 2:15:49
  Speaker 4: playing up. And if it was Tennessee playing up, now
• 2:15:52
  Speaker 4: you got them going to the fucking Giants as an
• 2:15:55
  Speaker 4: away game. And the Giants have Jameis Winston. It would
• 2:15:59
  Speaker 4: hurt my league neighbors. I'm just like, I don't understand
• 2:16:02
  Speaker 4: this NFL season.
• 2:16:03
  Speaker 5: Fuck it.
• 2:16:04
  Speaker 4: I'm going Tennessee. You know what? I will, too.
• 2:16:09
  Speaker 5: I mean, unless Jameis Winston has a comeback in, because
• 2:16:12
  Speaker 5: who has to be real? Jameis Winston, for as fun
• 2:16:14
  Speaker 5: as he is, he always has these wild games where
• 2:16:16
  Speaker 5: it's like either really good or really terrible. There's no in-between.
• 2:16:18
  Speaker 5: But I think the Titans will be too much.
• 2:16:22
  Speaker 3: And guess what? I'm going to say this is that game.
• 2:16:26
  Speaker 3: I'm taking the G-Men.
• 2:16:28
  Speaker 4: Wow.
• 2:16:31
  Speaker 5: This is what Jameis Winston does to a man. He
• 2:16:34
  Speaker 5: plays so wildly inconsistent that this is what's going to happen.
• 2:16:40
  Speaker 5: It's like, which Jameis Winston are you going to get?
• 2:16:43
  Speaker 2: I'm going to say.
• 2:16:47
  Speaker 3: It's going to– I'm going to take Jameis this time.
• 2:16:52
  Speaker 3: Moving on to another game that is– I apologize to
• 2:16:58
  Speaker 3: the Kansas City area, the Miami area, the South Florida area,
• 2:17:06
  Speaker 3: because this is going to be a bloodbath.
• 2:17:09
  Speaker 2: Kansas City at Miami.
• 2:17:10
  Speaker 5: Keep in mind this is a Miami home opener.
• 2:17:15
  Speaker 4: Keep in mind that I also mentioned in our chat earlier,
• 2:17:18
  Speaker 4: or sorry, it was our pre-recording, that I have Patrick
• 2:17:21
  Speaker 4: Mahomes in fantasy football, and I've never made such a
• 2:17:23
  Speaker 4: quicker QB change from Hurts than Mahomes in my life.
• 2:17:28
  Speaker 3: No, you didn't say fantasy.
• 2:17:30
  Speaker 2: That's not against.
• 2:17:31
  Speaker 3: Me, is it?
• 2:17:32
  Speaker 4: No, it is not against you. I do not have Mahomes,
• 2:17:34
  Speaker 4: and I have Mahomes in only one league.
• 2:17:37
  Speaker 3: Thank God I don't have to deal with my homes
• 2:17:39
  Speaker 3: this week in fantasy.
• 2:17:42
  Speaker 5: I'm looking this up right now because I can actually
• 2:17:43
  Speaker 5: check it.
• 2:17:46
  Speaker 4: Yeah, no, I do not have my homes in in
• 2:17:48
  Speaker 4: our league. I will say though, in our league, I
• 2:17:55
  Speaker 4: have Jared golf to start.
• 2:17:57
  Speaker 3: So, yeah, but I, I mean, I'll say this though.
• 2:18:02
  Speaker 2: You're one on one and I'm two and oh, I
• 2:18:06
  Speaker 2: guess it was a one or less too. I don't
• 2:18:12
  Speaker 2: want to answer that question.
• 2:18:13
  Speaker 4: My one loss was to Nova because my team shit
• 2:18:16
  Speaker 4: the bed. Saquon got hurt, G & T got bottled up,
• 2:18:19
  Speaker 4: MHJ didn't have any catches, and they're matching in Seattle,
• 2:18:23
  Speaker 4: and that was all she wrote for me. And then
• 2:18:27
  Speaker 4: I had Trey Tucker on my bench.
• 2:18:30
  Speaker 5: You want to talk about bench forwards? I had Chase
• 2:18:32
  Speaker 5: McLaughlin on my bench. He has back-to-back 18-point games.
• 2:18:36
  Speaker 2: I mean, that's possible, but Nova, you're picking Kansas City,
• 2:18:39
  Speaker 2: I assume?
• 2:18:41
  Speaker 3: Yes.
• 2:18:41
  Speaker 5: I imagine that the networks that aren't local are going
• 2:18:44
  Speaker 5: to switch from this game. The CBS network is going
• 2:18:46
  Speaker 5: to switch off if they're not local.
• 2:18:48
  Speaker 3: Or they're going to be like the Falcons-Panthers game and
• 2:18:51
  Speaker 3: start playing the audio of the Jets-Packers game instead of
• 2:18:55
  Speaker 3: the Falcons-Panthers audio.
• 2:18:59
  Speaker 5: Chiefs fans, I hope you're happy.
• 2:19:00
  Speaker 3: I think they'll be happy, but... I don't know which
• 2:19:05
  Speaker 3: one of these two teams are going to be happy.
• 2:19:07
  Speaker 3: Houston and Indianapolis.
• 2:19:11
  Speaker 5: All we know is that one of these two teams
• 2:19:12
  Speaker 5: are going to go 0-3. Potentially. They don't tie.
• 2:19:16
  Speaker 2: Well, I'm going to say Indy is going to go 0-3.
• 2:19:23
  Speaker 4: Nova?
• 2:19:24
  Speaker 5: I got the Texans. I do agree with Talon.
• 2:19:31
  Speaker 4: I think Indy wins it.
• 2:19:34
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 2:19:35
  Speaker 5: I mean, if the Texas defense doesn't show up, sure.
• 2:19:37
  Speaker 5: Because that's what's been happening.
• 2:19:40
  Speaker 4: I haven't showed up yet.
• 2:19:43
  Speaker 3: I mean, the Texas defense couldn't show up and they
• 2:19:46
  Speaker 3: still win like 27-24 last second field goal by Kaimi Fairbairn.
• 2:19:55
  Speaker 3: I mean, the real question is how many Texans employees
• 2:19:59
  Speaker 3: on the sideline are going to get hit with a
• 2:20:00
  Speaker 3: pie in the face by Blue?
• 2:20:05
  Speaker 2: Who?
• 2:20:08
  Speaker 5: Oh, the mascot. Oh, right. Yeah.
• 2:20:10
  Speaker 4: I love their mascot.
• 2:20:12
  Speaker 3: Oh, he's hilarious.
• 2:20:14
  Speaker 4: I love him. I hope whoever is in his mascot costume,
• 2:20:19
  Speaker 4: I hope he makes big bucks because that man does
• 2:20:21
  Speaker 4: his job very well.
• 2:20:23
  Speaker 2: Yes, he makes good money.
• 2:20:25
  Speaker 3: I still think Freddie Falcon is better, not because I'm
• 2:20:29
  Speaker 3: a Falcons fan, but last time I checked, Blue has
• 2:20:32
  Speaker 3: him bungee jumped off of the roof of Lucas Oil Stadium.
• 2:20:36
  Speaker 5: Brandon, what did you do?
• 2:20:38
  Speaker 4: What?
• 2:20:41
  Speaker 5: I think Brandon messed with your audio signal again.
• 2:20:45
  Speaker 2: You know, what I said was.
• 2:20:49
  Speaker 5: We heard the bungee cord part where you cut off.
• 2:20:51
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I haven't seen Blue Bungie jump off of Lucas
• 2:20:56
  Speaker 3: Oil Stadium's roof before, so Freddie Falcon is better for
• 2:21:00
  Speaker 3: that and that alone.
• 2:21:04
  Speaker 5: Where do we go next? Sure, let's save Brandon for last.
• 2:21:07
  Speaker 5: Let's do Seahawks Commanders.
• 2:21:12
  Speaker 2: If it was Jaden Daniels, I.
• 2:21:16
  Speaker 3: Might have been crazy enough to say Washington wins this game,
• 2:21:21
  Speaker 3: but It's Marcus Mariota. I can't pick Mariota over Drew Locke.
• 2:21:28
  Speaker 3: And I can't even believe I said that phrase out loud.
• 2:21:32
  Speaker 4: I can't pick Marcus Mariota over JSN.
• 2:21:38
  Speaker 5: Why do you guys not believe in Drew Locke?
• 2:21:42
  Speaker 4: It's fine with Drew Locke. This is just going to
• 2:21:45
  Speaker 4: be the JSN show again.
• 2:21:46
  Speaker 3: Sure.
• 2:21:51
  Speaker 5: I'm picking the Seahawks, too. Don't worry.
• 2:21:53
  Speaker 4: Oh, yeah. No, for sure. Yeah, no. You're high as
• 2:21:56
  Speaker 4: a kite if you're not.
• 2:21:57
  Speaker 5: I will say, though, this game does have upset material.
• 2:22:02
  Speaker 3: Again, if Jaden Daniels was starting, I probably would have
• 2:22:05
  Speaker 3: picked the Commanders to win.
• 2:22:09
  Speaker 5: I just think that dark side defense is just going
• 2:22:10
  Speaker 5: to be too much for Marcus Mariota.
• 2:22:12
  Speaker 4: Probably.
• 2:22:15
  Speaker 3: Probably. But speaking of a bird, let's talk about Arizona
• 2:22:22
  Speaker 3: and San Francisco.
• 2:22:24
  Speaker 5: Dude, how?
• 2:22:25
  Speaker 4: Does this even need to be talked about?
• 2:22:29
  Speaker 5: No, we skipped over a team.
• 2:22:30
  Speaker 4: What do you mean? We skipped over.
• 2:22:34
  Speaker 5: Yes, we skipped Patriots-Jaguars.
• 2:22:37
  Speaker 2: Oh, I thought you wanted to save Brandon's team for that.
• 2:22:39
  Speaker 3: Hey, you said save me for last.
• 2:22:41
  Speaker 5: Yeah, last in the window.
• 2:22:42
  Speaker 4: Oh, that's fine. I don't care. Yeah, no, anyway. Niners. Niners.
• 2:22:48
  Speaker 4: Niners and Broken Birds. Who wins?
• 2:22:52
  Speaker 5: I have the Patriots.
• 2:22:55
  Speaker 4: Hold on. Hold on. I'm so confused right now. There's like...
• 2:23:01
  Speaker 4: Talon and I have one book in our hands, and
• 2:23:05
  Speaker 4: we're on one page of this, and Nova is on
• 2:23:09
  Speaker 4: a different chapter.
• 2:23:10
  Speaker 5: Okay, I screwed that one up royally.
• 2:23:15
  Speaker 4: Uh.
• 2:23:18
  Speaker 4: Birds, substation.
• 2:23:21
  Speaker 5: I'm taking the Niners, though. Okay, I'll just take the
• 2:23:23
  Speaker 5: Niners and I'll play along.
• 2:23:25
  Speaker 3: Okay, now we go to the other book. New England
• 2:23:28
  Speaker 3: and Jacksonville. Nova's taking New England. I'm assuming Brandon's taking
• 2:23:34
  Speaker 3: New England.
• 2:23:41
  Speaker 4: Brother, I actually don't know. I really don't know. I
• 2:23:48
  Speaker 4: honestly would not be surprised to see Jacksonville win this one.
• 2:23:52
  Speaker 5: Same.
• 2:23:54
  Speaker 4: One, because if our offense does not get it together,
• 2:23:57
  Speaker 4: then we will lose this game. 100% we will lose
• 2:24:03
  Speaker 4: this game if we cannot develop an offense this game.
• 2:24:07
  Speaker 4: And if we slow start, if we have a cold
• 2:24:10
  Speaker 4: start to this game inside of Florida, haha, funny, funny, then...
• 2:24:16
  Speaker 4: then Jacksonville is going to run all over us. Like
• 2:24:18
  Speaker 4: they're like, they are. Trevor Lawrence has looked really good. Yeah.
• 2:24:21
  Speaker 4: I mean, even though he kind of looked like a
• 2:24:23
  Speaker 4: little mid against Denver, but to be fair, most players
• 2:24:26
  Speaker 4: who play, who are not used to mile high stadium,
• 2:24:28
  Speaker 4: don't really do that. Well, historically anyway, I just, if
• 2:24:34
  Speaker 4: we don't get an offense together, Jacksonville wins this game.
• 2:24:36
  Speaker 4: Jacksonville is actually favored to win this game. But I, I, I,
• 2:24:42
  Speaker 4: I would like to go out on a limb and
• 2:24:44
  Speaker 4: say that Patriots come out with a victory on the road.
• 2:24:49
  Speaker 3: And I will be joining suit. I will actually say
• 2:24:53
  Speaker 3: New England barely beats the Jaguars in this game.
• 2:24:58
  Speaker 2: I mean, it'll be tough.
• 2:25:02
  Speaker 3: Don't get me wrong. But I think New England could
• 2:25:05
  Speaker 3: potentially pull out the shock upset of this week. Meanwhile,
• 2:25:11
  Speaker 3: since we're in the state of Florida because of Jacksonville,
• 2:25:15
  Speaker 3: the Minnesota Vikings have the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
• 2:25:20
  Speaker 5: Who would have seen my opinion change of the Buccaneers?
• 2:25:21
  Speaker 5: I think the Vikings blow out the Bucs.
• 2:25:25
  Speaker 4: Blow out the Bucs with Carson Wentz?
• 2:25:27
  Speaker 5: Yes.
• 2:25:29
  Speaker 2: I mean, I'll say Minnesota wins. I don't know about
• 2:25:31
  Speaker 2: a blowout.
• 2:25:32
  Speaker 4: I will also say Minnesota wins, but I think blowout
• 2:25:36
  Speaker 4: is probably your hot take of the session. No.
• 2:25:41
  Speaker 5: Okay, there's my ruffling of feathers done.
• 2:25:44
  Speaker 4: This is a hot take at the session. All right.
• 2:25:49
  Speaker 2: Well, now, Brandon, let me ask you a question. What
• 2:25:53
  Speaker 2: was your thoughts on Quaquavel?
• 2:26:00
  Speaker 4: It's a really bad design.
• 2:26:01
  Speaker 5: Why are we bringing Quaquavel up?
• 2:26:07
  Speaker 4: I feel like there's a point to this. I'm kind
• 2:26:09
  Speaker 4: of scared to ask.
• 2:26:10
  Speaker 2: Because the next game, we're going to Rio!
• 2:26:13
  Speaker 4: That was my.
• 2:26:15
  Speaker 5: Second.
• 2:26:16
  Speaker 4: You ruined it. Boo, Talon, boo.
• 2:26:21
  Speaker 5: Oh, man. You're horrible for this one.
• 2:26:23
  Speaker 4: Anyway.
• 2:26:24
  Speaker 5: Hold on.
• 2:26:25
  Speaker 3: Hold on.
• 2:26:25
  Speaker 5: I actually thought you were going somewhere else with that one.
• 2:26:30
  Speaker 4: Nope.
• 2:26:31
  Speaker 5: It's mine. So Ravens Cowboys and the rumors are that
• 2:26:35
  Speaker 5: this is the real game, but apparently the field conditions
• 2:26:37
  Speaker 5: are really bad. So there are rumors that they could
• 2:26:39
  Speaker 5: move this back to AT & T Stadium. I am
• 2:26:42
  Speaker 5: buying into the Ravens. I'm hoping that last week was
• 2:26:45
  Speaker 5: just a fluke. I hope the Cowboys defense shows up
• 2:26:48
  Speaker 5: again and doesn't cover the receivers. I'm hoping Tez Walker
• 2:26:51
  Speaker 5: shows up. I'm hoping Derrick Henry actually has his carries.
• 2:26:55
  Speaker 5: I'm hoping Lamar Jackson isn't afraid to use his legs
• 2:26:57
  Speaker 5: because apparently that's another thing. I hope the Ravens beat
• 2:27:00
  Speaker 5: the Cowboys and expose that defense again.
• 2:27:04
  Speaker 3: I'm not surprised that Nova's picking his Ravens. Honestly, Brandon,
• 2:27:15
  Speaker 3: I think it's safe to say this one might actually
• 2:27:17
  Speaker 3: be the toughest game to pick of the week.
• 2:27:23
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I could probably get behind that one.
• 2:27:31
  Speaker 3: I mean, look, I want Baltimore to rebound from that
• 2:27:36
  Speaker 3: debacle on Sunday. And yes, I'm calling a debacle. I mean,
• 2:27:42
  Speaker 3: do I want Dallas to lose?
• 2:27:45
  Speaker 4: Yes. I will answer the question for you.
• 2:27:49
  Speaker 5: Yes. I have a relative who's a Cowboys fan.
• 2:27:53
  Speaker 3: My parents are Cowboys fans.
• 2:27:56
  Speaker 4: Both your families are psycho.
• 2:27:59
  Speaker 5: Luckily, it's just one person. It's no one else, luckily.
• 2:28:12
  Speaker 3: What is the line right now for this game, Brandon?
• 2:28:15
  Speaker 3: It's Baltimore 3.5 or is it Dallas 3.5? It's Baltimore 3.5.
• 2:28:17
  Speaker 3: Baltimore 3.5.
• 2:28:18
  Speaker 4: It opens at 52.5.
• 2:28:28
  Speaker 5: Why do I have a feeling that's going to go over?
• 2:28:29
  Speaker 3: It'll definitely go over. I will take Baltimore to win,
• 2:28:34
  Speaker 3: but I would not be surprised if Dallas backdoor covers.
• 2:28:42
  Speaker 5: It's just these Brandon lovers.
• 2:28:47
  Speaker 4: I have to record it and take that up. In
• 2:28:58
  Speaker 4: all honesty, I definitely echo the thinking here. If Baltimore's
• 2:29:04
  Speaker 4: defense doesn't have a fire lit under their ass about
• 2:29:08
  Speaker 4: getting lit up by the Saints, then they're definitely going
• 2:29:13
  Speaker 4: to lose this game to Dallas. But I would like
• 2:29:19
  Speaker 4: to put faith in the defensive mindset of Jesse Minter.
• 2:29:24
  Speaker 4: and hope that he basically says, hey, put up, shut up,
• 2:29:29
  Speaker 4: or go home. And I would like to see Baltimore
• 2:29:33
  Speaker 4: win this game in a pretty convincing fashion. I would
• 2:29:35
  Speaker 4: like to see them do to Dallas what the Giants
• 2:29:40
  Speaker 4: did to Dallas, except with fewer points by Dallas.
• 2:29:44
  Speaker 5: I'd love that, too. Don't worry.
• 2:29:48
  Speaker 4: I think Baltimore wins this game, but I think it's
• 2:29:50
  Speaker 4: a one-score game.
• 2:29:52
  Speaker 3: You'd also like it so that you have something to
• 2:29:55
  Speaker 3: talk about next week with how much of a Cowgirls
• 2:29:59
  Speaker 3: fan you are.
• 2:29:59
  Speaker 4: God, I'm going to light your car on fire and
• 2:30:04
  Speaker 4: your job on fire.
• 2:30:08
  Speaker 3: Well, Nova, I've gotten him to light my car on
• 2:30:11
  Speaker 3: fire twice. What can I say that I'll get the
• 2:30:14
  Speaker 3: third one?
• 2:30:17
  Speaker 5: Getting you to talk about Raider Saints. Which has suddenly
• 2:30:25
  Speaker 5: become an interesting game.
• 2:30:27
  Speaker 4: So we suddenly went from Rio and taking Nova's pick
• 2:30:31
  Speaker 4: to talking about Jack Del Rio. So... Oh, yeah.
• 2:30:38
  Speaker 3: Mmm, this game. Oh, this game, this game, this game,
• 2:30:46
  Speaker 3: this game. Yeah.
• 2:30:52
  Speaker 2: Forgive me, Father, for I have sinned. I'm picking the Saints.
• 2:31:01
  Speaker 3: Ooh.
• 2:31:02
  Speaker 4: I know that one was difficult for you, wasn't it?
• 2:31:07
  Speaker 5: The hard part is just how good are the Raiders
• 2:31:09
  Speaker 5: are compared to the opponents they faced.
• 2:31:12
  Speaker 4: So, I think this is going to kind of be
• 2:31:15
  Speaker 4: that test that gauges that because of how well the
• 2:31:22
  Speaker 4: QB performance has been from New Orleans. And if New
• 2:31:26
  Speaker 4: Orleans is a legitimate team, even though they're 1-1, if
• 2:31:35
  Speaker 4: they keep this trend going, then the Raiders are going
• 2:31:41
  Speaker 4: to lose pretty heavily, I think. If the Raiders are legitimate,
• 2:31:48
  Speaker 4: then the Saints lose their home opener. It opens up
• 2:31:55
  Speaker 4: as minus three New Orleans with a spread of 42. Okay.
• 2:31:58
  Speaker 4: So it's over under 42.
• 2:32:00
  Speaker 3: So it's a, so it's a general, it'd be a
• 2:32:04
  Speaker 3: pick them on a neutral field then.
• 2:32:06
  Speaker 4: Yeah, exactly.
• 2:32:07
  Speaker 3: Again, I'll, I'll take new Orleans in their home opener.
• 2:32:15
  Speaker 3: And maybe part of this is because I, I mean,
• 2:32:20
  Speaker 3: we were in New Orleans, Brandon. I'll say this. Look,
• 2:32:24
  Speaker 3: I may not like your team, but I like your city.
• 2:32:28
  Speaker 3: Your city was great. Like, I had crawfish for the
• 2:32:33
  Speaker 3: first time ever, and it was delicious.
• 2:32:39
  Speaker 5: I cannot speak for.
• 2:32:42
  Speaker 4: That. I think this is honestly a more difficult game
• 2:32:45
  Speaker 4: than the Dallas game. Yeah. Just because both teams are
• 2:32:51
  Speaker 4: being kind of really tested on how good they actually are.
• 2:32:55
  Speaker 4: New Orleans, in my opinion, plays like a team that
• 2:32:59
  Speaker 4: should be 2-0.
• 2:33:02
  Speaker 2: And they're a two-point conversion away from being 2-0.
• 2:33:05
  Speaker 4: And they're a two-point conversion away from being 2-0. So arguably,
• 2:33:09
  Speaker 4: I do see this as a team that could, like
• 2:33:11
  Speaker 4: a game that could be against two 2-0 teams. And
• 2:33:15
  Speaker 4: I also put a lot of And I'm a very
• 2:33:18
  Speaker 4: logistical person, you know, having been, you know, in the various,
• 2:33:22
  Speaker 4: you know, and being in like warehousing management and things
• 2:33:24
  Speaker 4: like that in the past, I'm a very logistic minded person,
• 2:33:27
  Speaker 4: especially when it comes to numericals and you just hard data,
• 2:33:30
  Speaker 4: you know, productivity and whatnot. Right. So I do put
• 2:33:33
  Speaker 4: a lot of faith in numbers to a certain extent. Right. Obviously,
• 2:33:39
  Speaker 4: you know, numbers don't tell the entire story and variables
• 2:33:43
  Speaker 4: do exist. However, looking at the matchup predictor, on ESPN's
• 2:33:49
  Speaker 4: site for this game. New Orleans has favored the win
• 2:33:52
  Speaker 4: this game 64.6%. I hate to interrupt.
• 2:33:58
  Speaker 5: You, but I'm going to make my pick now so
• 2:34:00
  Speaker 5: we don't take forever. I'm picking the Raiders!
• 2:34:04
  Speaker 4: I was going to say I would like to see
• 2:34:07
  Speaker 4: the Raiders win this game.
• 2:34:10
  Speaker 5: Let me believe in Clint Kubiak.
• 2:34:14
  Speaker 3: I mean, you can believe in Clint Kubiak, and you'd
• 2:34:18
  Speaker 3: be well within.
• 2:34:20
  Speaker 2: Your belief to do so.
• 2:34:22
  Speaker 3: I mean, again, I picked the Saints, and I mean,
• 2:34:31
  Speaker 3: I'll stick with it.
• 2:34:33
  Speaker 5: What's your final answer, Brandon?
• 2:34:35
  Speaker 4: No, that's the Raiders.
• 2:34:36
  Speaker 1: All right.
• 2:34:40
  Speaker 5: Let's kick off the primetime game, shall we?
• 2:34:44
  Speaker 3: Yes, the Rams and the Denver Broncos.
• 2:34:52
  Speaker 5: Keep in mind, this is the third game in a
• 2:34:53
  Speaker 5: row where Rams have the primetime game all in different days.
• 2:35:00
  Speaker 3: That is true.
• 2:35:01
  Speaker 4: LA opens up to minus 2.5. Here's what.
• 2:35:08
  Speaker 5: I'm going to tell you is going to happen. The
• 2:35:10
  Speaker 5: Rams are going to look like Super Bowl contenders the
• 2:35:11
  Speaker 5: first three quarters. And then they're going to pull out
• 2:35:14
  Speaker 5: the four-quarter comeback again. I'm going to go to the Broncos.
• 2:35:16
  Speaker 5: We got our own BS.
• 2:35:20
  Speaker 3: Nova is taking the Broncos in the Sunday night game.
• 2:35:25
  Speaker 5: And yes, I know I'm making an enemy of my
• 2:35:27
  Speaker 5: own city. I know.
• 2:35:28
  Speaker 2: I mean, maybe, maybe a little bit, but you never
• 2:35:34
  Speaker 2: know at this point.
• 2:35:35
  Speaker 5: I'm calling four-quarter comeback for the Broncos again.
• 2:35:40
  Speaker 3: Calling a fourth quarter comeback for the Broncos again.
• 2:35:46
  Speaker 5: It's their trap card.
• 2:35:47
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 2:35:47
  Speaker 5: All right. Well, I caught your wire system. What's going on?
• 2:35:59
  Speaker 2: No, I mean, again, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm just thinking
• 2:36:02
  Speaker 2: about this game and.
• 2:36:05
  Speaker 5: I'm worried because Brandon keeps cutting your wire off for
• 2:36:07
  Speaker 5: some reason.
• 2:36:08
  Speaker 2: Why does he have to keep cutting my wire? Beats me.
• 2:36:17
  Speaker 3: Yeah, beats me too.
• 2:36:20
  Speaker 4: I'm over here thinking pretty hard about this game myself. Honestly,
• 2:36:23
  Speaker 4: I think it's the Rams in this game.
• 2:36:26
  Speaker 5: Are we sure Ravens Cowboys and Raiders Saints are the
• 2:36:29
  Speaker 5: hard picks? I think this one might be the harder one.
• 2:36:31
  Speaker 4: Oh, no. No, I definitely have a harder time with
• 2:36:33
  Speaker 4: the Raiders game. I'm just over here looking at their data.
• 2:36:36
  Speaker 4: But no, I definitely think this is a Rams game
• 2:36:39
  Speaker 4: for sure.
• 2:36:40
  Speaker 3: Yeah, honestly, I got to go with the Rams on
• 2:36:48
  Speaker 3: this one.
• 2:36:51
  Speaker 5: Don't come laughing at me whenever Broncos make the fourth
• 2:36:54
  Speaker 5: quarter comeback.
• 2:36:55
  Speaker 4: I will make sure to find this podcast and clip
• 2:37:02
  Speaker 4: that exact sound bit right there whenever the Rams win.
• 2:37:07
  Speaker 5: I don't know i i have to own up to
• 2:37:09
  Speaker 5: it but i'm just saying don't be surprised to do
• 2:37:11
  Speaker 5: it again because that's an ender motto i.
• 2:37:15
  Speaker 4: Know for sure so and so did we so nova
• 2:37:19
  Speaker 4: picked denver talent you also picked the rams right.
• 2:37:24
  Speaker 2: Yep i did Alright, awesome.
• 2:37:27
  Speaker 4: So where does that leave us at, Nova?
• 2:37:30
  Speaker 5: Eagles-Bears, and I want to kick this off by saying
• 2:37:33
  Speaker 5: that Case Keenum could be starting for the Bears.
• 2:37:36
  Speaker 2: Case Keenum could be starting for the Bears.
• 2:37:40
  Speaker 5: And the only reason this is happening is because Tyson
• 2:37:42
  Speaker 5: Bajent is apparently in concussion protocol.
• 2:37:47
  Speaker 3: Of course he is.
• 2:37:51
  Speaker 5: Okay, I'm pretty sure this rule is not going to
• 2:37:53
  Speaker 5: apply to me as much as it applies to Talon.
• 2:37:55
  Speaker 5: I have different various thoughts. Well, we know Case Keenum's starting,
• 2:38:00
  Speaker 5: but which Case Keenum are we getting is where I'm
• 2:38:03
  Speaker 5: stuck at. Because if you get the Case Keenum that
• 2:38:05
  Speaker 5: doesn't play well, the Eagles win this by a landslide. However,
• 2:38:08
  Speaker 5: the Eagles have no offensive self-destruction. And this is in
• 2:38:11
  Speaker 5: Soldier Field, too.
• 2:38:15
  Speaker 3: This is in Soldier Field. But I'm picking the Eagles.
• 2:38:20
  Speaker 3: I mean, at least one has their starting quarterback. The
• 2:38:23
  Speaker 3: other one doesn't.
• 2:38:25
  Speaker 4: They're down to the third string.
• 2:38:28
  Speaker 2: On the road to victory.
• 2:38:35
  Speaker 5: Fine, I'll pick the Eagles.
• 2:38:39
  Speaker 2: All right, Brandon, do you want to do the chant
• 2:38:41
  Speaker 2: or should I do the chant?
• 2:38:43
  Speaker 4: Please don't.
• 2:38:44
  Speaker 3: Hey! A, G, L, E, S.
• 2:38:56
  Speaker 4: I will never do a Philly chain in any fucking sport.
• 2:39:01
  Speaker 5: Get ready to learn LeBron James, buddy.
• 2:39:04
  Speaker 2: Get ready to learn LeBron James, buddy.
• 2:39:06
  Speaker 4: Look, on that note, I don't give a fuck about
• 2:39:09
  Speaker 4: LeBron James. I'm more worried about the Jalen Brown revenge game.
• 2:39:16
  Speaker 5: Fair. How's it?
• 2:39:17
  Speaker 4: As a Celtics fan, I am more worried about the
• 2:39:18
  Speaker 4: Jalen Brown revenge game because that man's fixing to drop
• 2:39:21
  Speaker 4: 50 on us, and it's fine. He deserves it.
• 2:39:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he deserves it.
• 2:39:29
  Speaker 3: But with that untold, that is all the games for
• 2:39:35
  Speaker 3: week three.
• 2:39:36
  Speaker 2: So before we get out of here, guys, let's ruffle
• 2:39:39
  Speaker 2: some feathers.
• 2:39:42
  Speaker 5: I already did mine. Tell them to lead us all.
• 2:39:48
  Speaker 3: All right, I'm going to lead us off on this one,
• 2:39:50
  Speaker 3: and I'm going to say that.
• 2:39:57
  Speaker 3: Let me see. Which game can I royally piss people
• 2:40:01
  Speaker 3: off on?
• 2:40:02
  Speaker 4: Um....
• 2:40:14
  Speaker 5: While you think about that one, I'll repeat my pick.
• 2:40:17
  Speaker 5: I think the Vikings blow out the Buccaneers by at
• 2:40:20
  Speaker 5: least three scores.
• 2:40:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that one actually could happen, and that might actually
• 2:40:28
  Speaker 3: be enough to cost Todd Bowles' job.
• 2:40:33
  Speaker 5: I expect they're going to booze around Raymond James Stadium
• 2:40:35
  Speaker 5: as much as they were in Mercedes-Benz Stadium.
• 2:40:39
  Speaker 3: Oh, I don't know.
• 2:40:41
  Speaker 4: Oh....
• 2:40:43
  Speaker 2: Brandon, that one might actually be a lot tougher.
• 2:40:46
  Speaker 4: Yeah, just a bit.
• 2:40:47
  Speaker 5: They coincide with one each other. Don't worry.
• 2:40:53
  Speaker 2: You know what? I will actually... I'll go this route
• 2:40:59
  Speaker 2: even though I picked them to win.
• 2:41:03
  Speaker 3: And Brandon, again, forgive me, Father, for I have sinned
• 2:41:07
  Speaker 3: on what I'm about to say.
• 2:41:08
  Speaker 2: I'm going to say Dak Prescott throws.
• 2:41:11
  Speaker 5: for at.
• 2:41:12
  Speaker 3: Least 400 yards against the Ravens defense.
• 2:41:15
  Speaker 5: What the hell, man? That's a bold take.
• 2:41:22
  Speaker 4: That's a really bold take.
• 2:41:24
  Speaker 5: Why do you hate me?
• 2:41:27
  Speaker 3: I don't know. All I know is that I'm going
• 2:41:30
  Speaker 3: to hate myself watching that game because we're going to be.
• 2:41:33
  Speaker 2: Forced, the three of us, to listen all game to.
• 2:41:41
  Speaker 2: Here we go!
• 2:41:44
  Speaker 3: God, I hate that fucking.
• 2:41:45
  Speaker 2: I fucking hate that cadence.
• 2:41:48
  Speaker 5: Wouldn't the real crowd blanket?
• 2:41:51
  Speaker 2: Why would they blanket?
• 2:41:53
  Speaker 5: Because they're cheering for either side. It's an international game.
• 2:41:59
  Speaker 3: Uh maybe but i i think the cap i forget
• 2:42:05
  Speaker 3: what was i i forget off the top of my
• 2:42:08
  Speaker 3: head but i remember the nfl had international rights.
• 2:42:13
  Speaker 5: Uh uh.
• 2:42:16
  Speaker 3: Yeah program for for 2026.
• 2:42:20
  Speaker 4: What is happening with your audio talon you're messing with
• 2:42:24
  Speaker 4: it brandon I'm really not. You started fading out. You
• 2:42:28
  Speaker 4: sound like an old-timey speaker for a second.
• 2:42:31
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 2:42:33
  Speaker 4: That was the first time I've heard that.
• 2:42:37
  Speaker 3: I wonder if you're hearing my dog scratching into her bed.
• 2:42:41
  Speaker 4: No, you actually sounded like you were talking through a
• 2:42:43
  Speaker 4: different device altogether. But anyhow.
• 2:42:49
  Speaker 3: You know, I gotta figure... I'll have to figure that out.
• 2:42:53
  Speaker 3: and everything, but I'm looking at the, the global market
• 2:42:56
  Speaker 3: program and, uh, yeah. Oh wait, Brazil, Brazil has lions, dolphins, Eagles,
• 2:43:07
  Speaker 3: and Patriots.
• 2:43:11
  Speaker 4: Okay.
• 2:43:13
  Speaker 3: So it's possible that you could still hear Dax cadence, uh,
• 2:43:23
  Speaker 3: All right, Brendan, what's your take?
• 2:43:27
  Speaker 4: For, oh, God. Look, I had a brain fart. I
• 2:43:30
  Speaker 4: totally forgot where we were at.
• 2:43:32
  Speaker 5: Where were we?
• 2:43:34
  Speaker 4: It's been a long day, man. It's been a long day.
• 2:43:36
  Speaker 4: My day's been going since 5 o'clock this morning, Eastern time.
• 2:43:39
  Speaker 4: And it's 1130 now.
• 2:43:41
  Speaker 5: Hey, guess what? We're making history with this podcast. We're
• 2:43:43
  Speaker 5: going over two hours, 40 minutes in this recording.
• 2:43:45
  Speaker 4: Oh, Jesus. Look at that.
• 2:43:47
  Speaker 2: Well, again, there was a gigantic rant.
• 2:43:51
  Speaker 4: That took up about 25 minutes of that. Yeah. I think,
• 2:43:56
  Speaker 4: and I think this is a reasonable hot take. So,
• 2:44:01
  Speaker 4: even though I picked New England to win, right? I
• 2:44:07
  Speaker 4: would like to say that this is the hot take
• 2:44:09
  Speaker 4: where Drake May gets it the fuck together. And when
• 2:44:12
  Speaker 4: I say I think he gets it the fuck together,
• 2:44:14
  Speaker 4: I think he has four TDs against Jacksonville. And I
• 2:44:19
  Speaker 4: think one of those... I think one of those goes
• 2:44:22
  Speaker 4: to Romeo Dobbs.
• 2:44:24
  Speaker 5: Oh, my. I thought you were going to say one
• 2:44:26
  Speaker 5: was going to be on Travis Hunter.
• 2:44:29
  Speaker 3: Oh, I mean, hey, it could be Romeo Dobbs defended
• 2:44:32
  Speaker 3: by Travis Hunter.
• 2:44:35
  Speaker 4: I'll take that one. But yeah, no, let's let's. I
• 2:44:38
  Speaker 4: think that's a reasonable enough hot take there. Yeah. Yeah,
• 2:44:42
  Speaker 4: I mean, that it's kind of mild, but, you know,
• 2:44:45
  Speaker 4: it's with the way our offense has been looking since
• 2:44:47
  Speaker 4: like late last season that it's it's kind of hot.
• 2:44:52
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, it's something out there, but... It's something.
• 2:44:57
  Speaker 3: It's definitely something, but we get to enjoy more football
• 2:45:00
  Speaker 3: this week. We get to watch some quarterbacks return. We
• 2:45:05
  Speaker 3: unfortunately get to watch some quarterbacks not play. We get
• 2:45:08
  Speaker 3: to watch a third-string quarterback play three weeks in a row, guys.
• 2:45:13
  Speaker 5: Except now it's on a different team.
• 2:45:16
  Speaker 2: Except now it's on a different team.
• 2:45:18
  Speaker 5: And again, as.
• 2:45:21
  Speaker 3: I know I forgot to throw this in my rant,
• 2:45:23
  Speaker 3: but I'll say this. I, I don't want Cooper rush
• 2:45:26
  Speaker 3: on my team anymore, but I definitely don't want to,
• 2:45:28
  Speaker 3: I don't want him to die.
• 2:45:32
  Speaker 2: Like, you know how idiots are on Twitter.
• 2:45:35
  Speaker 3: Like, some people were saying that they would like, if
• 2:45:37
  Speaker 3: they had a, I remember seeing this stupid tweet and
• 2:45:40
  Speaker 3: they did with the bucks too, where they're like, if
• 2:45:43
  Speaker 3: they have one bullet and it's between for the bucks,
• 2:45:46
  Speaker 3: it was Anzalone and for Atlanta was Cooper rush and Hitler.
• 2:45:52
  Speaker 3: They would send Anzalone or Cooper rush.
• 2:45:56
  Speaker 2: To hell with the bullet. They'd actually let Hitler survive.
• 2:46:01
  Speaker 4: Jesus. Yeah. Yeah.
• 2:46:05
  Speaker 3: I think it's safe to say, as we end this podcast,
• 2:46:08
  Speaker 3: stay off of Twitter.
• 2:46:11
  Speaker 4: Never.
• 2:46:13
  Speaker 5: No, I agree with Alan.
• 2:46:15
  Speaker 4: Twitter is a very dark and toxic place. Stay off
• 2:46:18
  Speaker 4: of Twitter.
• 2:46:19
  Speaker 5: Only use your following page. Never check anywhere else. Thank
• 2:46:22
  Speaker 5: me later.
• 2:46:26
  Speaker 3: I mean, honestly, I think I've been checking out the
• 2:46:30
  Speaker 3: new NFL feature. On my feed.
• 2:46:34
  Speaker 5: I have not gone into that space ever. And I
• 2:46:39
  Speaker 5: don't plan to.
• 2:46:44
  Speaker 3: Yeah, so... I mean... It's definitely... Something on Twitter. I'll
• 2:46:54
  Speaker 3: just say that. That's probably easy enough to say... Like
• 2:47:01
  Speaker 3: with Twitter, but really, look, if I'm there, I reply
• 2:47:07
  Speaker 3: to some people. I like certain things. But other than that,
• 2:47:11
  Speaker 3: I stay off.
• 2:47:17
  Speaker 4: It. That's probably honestly the better thing to do.
• 2:47:20
  Speaker 3: Yeah um but outside of that i think that's a
• 2:47:28
  Speaker 3: good ending point for our episode guys hard to believe
• 2:47:32
  Speaker 3: that next week we're going to be recording our 10th
• 2:47:35
  Speaker 3: episode isn't.
• 2:47:35
  Speaker 4: It that's crazy.
• 2:47:38
  Speaker 5: Hopefully we don't do three hours No, we're going to
• 2:47:41
  Speaker 5: do four hours next week.
• 2:47:43
  Speaker 5: We're not going that far.
• 2:47:45
  Speaker 3: No, well, you got to remember, though, we have to
• 2:47:47
  Speaker 3: do four hours, and then we stop in honor of
• 2:47:50
  Speaker 3: Jaden Daniels.
• 2:47:54
  Speaker 4: Look, I'm just saying, if we're going four hours, you
• 2:47:56
  Speaker 4: just better be prepared to hear me snoring with how
• 2:47:58
  Speaker 4: late we do these.
• 2:48:00
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 2:48:01
  Speaker 3: Yeah, no, that's definitely fair. But ladies and gentlemen, thank

• 2:48:13
  Speaker 2: Of ranting, have a lot of ranting.
• 2:48:18
  Speaker 3: You know it's a bad day when Nova and I
• 2:48:21
  Speaker 3: are the angry people and Brandon's just sitting there twiddling
• 2:48:25
  Speaker 3: his thumbs and humming kumbaya and.
• 2:48:29
  Speaker 2: having a great day at our expense.
• 2:48:32
  Speaker 4: Absolutely. As I literally have been sitting over here in
• 2:48:36
  Speaker 4: the midst of all of this, doing homework and low-key
• 2:48:39
  Speaker 4: playing a game of Pokemon Champions here and there. I
• 2:48:44
  Speaker 4: managed to get a game in whenever Talon was ranting.
• 2:48:49
  Speaker 2: Think about that.
• 2:48:50
  Speaker 3: And the amount of times it took me to rant,
• 2:48:53
  Speaker 3: Brandon was able to play a Pokemon champions battle on
• 2:48:58
  Speaker 3: his Switch, mind you, because I don't think he did
• 2:49:00
  Speaker 3: on his phone.
• 2:49:01
  Speaker 4: No, it was on my phone. No, it was on
• 2:49:03
  Speaker 4: my phone. I'm on a 13-game win streak currently. So thanks, Talon.
