  Speaker 1: What's up, everybody? Game Preview Guy here with your Week
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: 3 Breakdowns. Got some teams having to go at it
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: with backup quarterbacks and the return of a starter making
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: his 2026 debut on Thursday Night Football. Atlanta Falcons head
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: to Green Bay on a short week, still in search
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: of their first win, hoping a new quarterback might do
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: the trick. Otherwise, the Dirty Bird's nickname is going to
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: get swapped out with the Boo Birds. Packers coming off
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: their first win, kind of a nail-biter, but better than
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: hitting Week 3 with a donut in the win column. Hey,
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: OT win over the Jets, and the Cheeseheads can still
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: talk smack in this case. It wasn't supposed to be
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: that hard, but nobody will care how you came up
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: with your Week 2 win after 18 weeks if you're
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: in the playoffs. And Titletown won't care if their defense
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: keeps playing the way it did a week ago.
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: Smith, he escapes, and now it's taken down.
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: After looking shaky versus Minnesota Week 1, second half especially,
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: Packers defense looking to carry over their Week 2 play
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: to this TNF game. held the Jets to 17 points,
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: fewer than 300 yards, and to a meager 4 yards
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: per play. LVN just wants to keep LIVI in. Lucas
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: Van Ness, 3 tackles for loss, 4 quarterback hits, 10 tackles.
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: One and a half of Green Bay's four sacks.
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: Lucas Van Ness, he's the one that's going to come
• 1:29
  Speaker 3: up and under. Once he does that, it flushes Geno
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: Smith out of the pocket right into the rest of
• 1:34
  Speaker 3: the defense.
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: Edgerin Cooper with a sack, too. He's got one in
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: each game so far. They'll be chasing Michael Penix Jr.
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: around this week, and boy, does Rise Up need him.
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: Falcons Week 2 quarterbacks took three sacks.
• 1:46
  Speaker 4: Lloyd with that big-time stop. Again, the Bluebirds are out.
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: Right tackle Juwan Taylor's pressure rate allowed on the high
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: side for the second week in a row, and he'll
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: be protecting the blind side. Cooper Rush, two INTs, no
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: touchdowns last week after an ineffective opener. Jack Strand relieved
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: him last week and got picked off, too. A 28 rating,
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: a pick six.
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: It's Lloyd again. Touchdown.
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: Offense posted 13 Week 1 points, followed it with three,
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: so when you account for the pick six, they were
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: minus four points for the day. Rare when you would
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: have done better punting all day on first down. And
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: still afraid to knock on Scott Hansen's door, as they
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: haven't made it past the 20-yard line once in two games?
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: Fans weren't pretending to be ghosts for Halloween or anything
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: last week. The boos raining down were directed at Kevin
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: Stefanski and the team.
• 2:37
  Speaker 5: Intercepted by Lloyd.
• 2:39
  Speaker 4: He never saw him, and it's the second time he
• 2:41
  Speaker 4: did that.
• 2:42
  Speaker 6: Devin Lloyd finally caught from behind inside the 20.
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: It was remarkable that Drake London ended last week with
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: 51 yards, really.
• 2:51
  Speaker 6: Again, a play fake to Robinson, and they find London,
• 2:53
  Speaker 6: Drake London, who has a chance to become one of
• 2:56
  Speaker 6: the great receivers in the NFL once his career's done.
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: No other Falcons pass catchers with even 21 receiving yards.
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: Kyle Pitts, 15. Jahan Dotson, 11. Bijan Robinson, just nine.
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: London Pennix, Robinson and company up against a Packers secondary
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: that did give up over 240 passing yards to Geno Smith.
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: Cornerback Keyshawn Nixon gave up a team high 85 yards.
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: They gave up 57 yards in a TD to Garrett Wilson. corner,
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: Brandon Cisse gave up a touchdown for the second week
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: in a row.
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: I told you how freakishly athletic Garrett Wilson is. You
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: put it anywhere in his vicinity, he's going to catch
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: it as he just did for a nice touchdown for
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: the Jets.
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: Packers come off another strong showing versus the run though.
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: They held Brees Hall to 1.8 a carry on his
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: 16 tries after holding both Minnesota backs to fewer than
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: four yards per carry week one.
• 3:48
  Speaker 7: On second down, Hall looks to spin, but Evan Williams
• 3:52
  Speaker 7: right there.
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: Now they test themselves against Bijan, who at least ran
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: for 72 yards on 4-5 per carry versus Carolina.
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: They do a nice job of blocking up front. Bijan
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: runs through one tackle, lowers his shoulders to finish the run.
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: And the other B-Rob, Brian, with 51 yards, 4-6 per run.
• 4:09
  Speaker 6: Strand dumps it off to Brian Robinson.
• 4:13
  Speaker 4: That's tough running right there by Brian Robinson.
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: Packers offense. Well, it's not rolling in hot. Jordan Love
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: did throw for a couple of touchdowns versus the Jets.
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: No INTs. Came through late in the game when they
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: really needed him.
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: Love to the end zone. Touchdown Christian Watson. What a drive.
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: What a response.
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: Only 145 yards, though. Just five yards per attempt. Green
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: Bay's offense only 20 points, and it took OT to
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: get even that many. Less than 200 yards of total offense.
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: One for nine on third down. and not even four
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: yards per play, like Lucy, they have some splainin.
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: To do. 14-7, start from the 14-yard line. Come on,
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: watch the football!
• 4:56
  Speaker 7: Giving Jonathan Dolma another chance to yell fumble.
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: It is chance football.
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: Packers fans not thrilled with Matt LaFleur right now. Can
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: he get his team going versus the Falcons? It's a
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: group that was paddling upstream a lot due to its
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: own offense. Gave up 27 points at the end of
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: the game.
• 5:13
  Speaker 6: Young, the pass is wide open and complete to Hubbard.
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: Love gets a secondary that allowed 287 yards to Bryce Young.
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: Three touchdowns, no picks, a 115-plus rating. They gave up
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: over 100 yards to Tedaroa McMillan. Corner Mike Hughes allowed
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: 67 yards, according to NextGenStats. Corner CJ Henderson gave up
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: a touchdown. Safety Xavier Watts, a TD, and 67 yards.
• 5:38
  Speaker 4: Plenty of options, and there's TMAC again.
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: They didn't play Pittsburgh's offense, or Aaron Rodgers' bad week
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: one at least. Their DBs dealing with Matthew Golden this week,
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: off to a good start so far, led the team
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: with 58 yards week two.
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: The awareness of Jordan Love, he then just lobs it
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: out there to Matthew Golden, like literally lobs it out there.
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: Christian Watson, only other Packer to hit 40 yards last week,
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: scored for the second week in a row 41 yards.
• 6:06
  Speaker 3: Christian Watson right here. And he's going to run this
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: slant inside. Half of that field to run that route.
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: Jordan Love puts it right on the money for Christian Watson.
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: Tight end Tucker Kraft, only 15 yards. Falcons pass rush,
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: got to Young twice, and without blitzing him much, pressured
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: him a very healthy 51% of the time.
• 6:26
  Speaker 6: Samson, Evacom, along with Dexter, Jervon Dexter, collaborating.
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: Love took four sacks week one, three sacks on 29
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: pass attempts versus the Jets. Right guard Jacob Monk gave
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: up a 12% pressure rate. That's high for a guard.
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: Left tackle Jordan Morgan, the only lineman blamed for a sack,
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: according to NGS.
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: Love looking. Wrapped up. Lost the football. It's still loose.
• 6:54
  Speaker 7: Looks like the Packers have recovered at the bottom of
• 6:57
  Speaker 7: the pile.
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: Along the ground, only 63 rush yards for Green Bay
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: a week ago, 3-5 a carry. Caleb Johnson at least
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: finished at 4 per.
• 7:05
  Speaker 7: It's Johnson up the middle, and Caleb Johnson picks up
• 7:09
  Speaker 7: the first.
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: Down for the Packers.
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: Falcons only gave up 68 rush yards to Carolina, allowed
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: Chuba Hubbard to hit a 4-4 a carry on 12 tries.
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: Steelers at home this week, hoping some home cooking gets
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: them back in the win column, hoping their offense can
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: somehow wake up. Fans starting to wave their terrible towels
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: at Mike McCarthy.
• 7:32
  Speaker 8: Manhandle Anderson, get his hand on the ball, and then.
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: Elijah Ponder scoop and score. Cook can't tackle him all
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: the way to the end zone.
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: Getting their O going against the Cincinnati Bengals, though, won't
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: be easy. Wait, is that a typo? No, no, that's
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: what I'm supposed to read? Okay then, Hootay turning over
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: a new leaf in 2026.
• 7:51
  Speaker 8: Burrow deep for Chase, and he caught it!
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: Touchdown! I thought he was falling.
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: Meet the Orange Curtain? Okay, maybe that's a bit much,
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: but they're not playing like the Bungles anymore. Cincinnati's D-Boys
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: have some flex to them heading into Week 3 after
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: a four-takeaway Week 1 and only giving up 20 points.
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: They hold a Texans offense that went for 31 week
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: one points to three. Less than five yards per play.
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: Five for 17 on third down. Stopped all four of
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: their red zone chances.
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: Beautiful sack made.
• 8:27
  Speaker 8: Cedric Johnson to clinch the win for Cincinnati.
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers looking at a Bengals secondary that gave up
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: over 350 yards to C.J. Stroud, but he threw 55 times.
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: They held him to a nice 6.5 yards per attempt.
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: didn't give up any touchdowns, held them to a mid-70s rating.
• 8:47
  Speaker 8: Third and 17 to the end zone, and incomplete for Hutchinson.
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: And they could keep it going if Pittsburgh's offense doesn't
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: step up. Two for 12 on third down, only one
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: red zone trip, a piddly 3.5 yards per play. To
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: put that in perspective, Cleveland finished last in yards per
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: play in 2025 with 4.3. 13 week one points, then
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: only three versus New England. and lost a fumble that
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: was returned for a touchdown, so they were minus four
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: points when they were out there.
• 9:18
  Speaker 9: Rogers only 4.8 yards per attempt last week, only 187 yards,
• 9:21
  Speaker 9: no touchdowns, got picked off.
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: Though it bounced off his receiver, so he's not getting
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: much help. He needs DK Metcalf to stop dropping passes.
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: Been a problem both games. He needs Michael Pittman back
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: from injury. He needs better pass pro. Took four sacks
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: to the pats. Right guard Spencer Anderson gave up one
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: with a fat 15% pressure rate, according to NextGenStats.com. It
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: was amazing. He got up after that one blindside sack
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: he took.
• 10:04
  Speaker 7: Christian Ellis is going to creep off the edge and
• 10:07
  Speaker 7: be completely unblocked on the blindside.
• 10:09
  Speaker 8: And my goodness, what a hit to the back of
• 10:13
  Speaker 8: Aaron Rodgers.
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: Now he gets a Bengals front that barrels in off
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: back-to-back four sack showings. Shamar Stewart with one. Jonathan Allen
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: with one. He has one in each game. And Cedric Johnson,
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: two last week. And how about a meager 12% blitz rate?
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: A pressure rate over 40, though.
• 10:31
  Speaker 8: Down he goes! Sacked on the play. Big time play.
• 10:36
  Speaker 8: Pulled in.
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: Cincinnati's DBs held all of Houston's wideouts under 40 yards.
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: It didn't have to deal with Nico Collins. And they
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: did give up 140 yards to Dalton Schultz. Most of
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: those yards allowed by their linebackers. Barrett Carter gave up 102.
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: Demetrius Knight, 91. Not one Steeler enters off a 40-plus
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: yard receiving game. Jeremy Bernard, 35. Pat Friermuth, 32. Roman Wilson, 28. DK,
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: nine targets, 27 yards. And their run game also stumbles in.
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: Jalen Warren, only 43 yards and fewer than four yards
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: per carry. Rico Dowdle, only 22 yards, 3-1 a try.
• 11:20
  Speaker 10: That's Dowdle for about three.
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: Bengals defense not the only one that comes in with
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: swagger despite losing. Steelers defense did their part holding New
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: England's offense to 13 points. They more or less won
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: them their week one game. Four for 12 on third
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: down a week ago only let New England inside the
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: 20 once.
• 11:39
  Speaker 9: Against Pittsburgh as May looks and takes his loss as
• 11:44
  Speaker 9: Highsmith was right there.
• 11:45
  Speaker 10: He falls at his feet.
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: Joe Burrow looking at a secondary that has yet to
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: be dinged this year. While locking up Cooper Rush might
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: not look very impressive, they didn't give up any touchdowns
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: to Drake May in their most recent contest. Picked him
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: off for a mid-70s rate.
• 11:59
  Speaker 10: Look in the throw.
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: May. Oh, no. Picked off right into the arms of
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: Patrick Queen.
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: Now, May and Rush have both looked rough two weeks
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: in a row. Burrow comes in off a solid week, too.
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: Still hasn't put up a big yardage game, but he
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: was clean versus a tough Houston secondary. Two touchdowns, no
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: picks last week, a 100-plus rate.
• 12:21
  Speaker 8: Third and five to the sideline, and Higgins with a
• 12:25
  Speaker 8: great spitting catch.
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: Bengals offense scratched out 20 points versus Houston, only one
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: red zone trip, only five for 15 on third down,
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: and only 4.5 yards per play, so they're hoping for
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: a spark. Kind of fits their early season production from
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: the last few years.
• 12:42
  Speaker 8: Throw, Higgins broken up beautifully on the play by Stingley.
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: The battle in the trenches. Alex Highsmith, one of their
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: three sacks. May only threw 22 times.
• 12:52
  Speaker 11: T.J.
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: Watt picked up one and a half, had two week one.
• 12:55
  Speaker 9: As May is sacked back at the 14.
• 12:59
  Speaker 10: And T.J.
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: Got to him first.
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: Watt now takes on the Cincinnati O-line that saw Burrow
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: get gobbled up five times on 31 pass attempts. Highsmith
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: will do battle with left tackle Orlando Brown. He gave
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: up two, according to NGS. Both guards gave up one each.
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: Four of their five big uglies gave up pressure rates
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: over 11%. That's kind of ugly.
• 13:21
  Speaker 12: Junior just plants Burrow into the ground. Watch 97. It's
• 13:26
  Speaker 12: a shot to that left shoulder.
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: Steelers' backside, of course, will be preoccupied with T. Higgins
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: and Jamar Chase. They gave up 96 yards to Romeo Dobbs.
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: Safety Rayshawn Jenkins gave up a team-high 63 yards. Tee
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: and Jamar, the only two guys with more than 17
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: yards versus Houston. Higgins led the team with 95.
• 13:46
  Speaker 8: Look at him dodge and wiggle and take it to
• 13:49
  Speaker 8: the 31.
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: Jamar followed a week one dud with two scores, 75 yards.
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: That one catch was phenomenal.
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: Oh, let's see.
• 13:57
  Speaker 12: He gets the possession and yeah, both feet are down.
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: Oh, the contortion. The body control!
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: And finally, on handoffs, Chase Brown, rolling in off a
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: nice 80-yard game, at least found his way to four
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: yards per carry.
• 14:12
  Speaker 12: 30% of the time last week, he was lined up
• 14:15
  Speaker 12: underneath center.
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: That's nearly double.
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: He draws a Pittsburgh front that gave up a touchdown,
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: 76 yards on 4-8, a run to Travion Henderson, 7-2
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: a carry to Ramondre Stevenson.
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: The A-gap, he's going to take this.
• 14:27
  Speaker 5: Watch the block here.
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: Just huge, huge hole.
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: Chargers head east week three, still in search of their
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: first win of 2026. The alarms are officially blaring, especially
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: when you factor who they play this week.
• 14:43
  Speaker 13: And all hand in the face, tackling them there in
• 14:45
  Speaker 13: the end zone. And when you get a holding in
• 14:48
  Speaker 13: the end zone in the NFL, that is an automatic safety.
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: They are in Buffalo paying a visit to the Bills'
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: new Highmark Stadium. Team got high marks there last week,
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: that's for sure. Set a pretty high bar to live
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: up to.
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: Deep drop. Pump fake. Going deep. Wide open. Touchdown, Joshua Palmer.
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: What a way to break in their new digs, and
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: Stephon wasn't there. Be wary, Bolts. Josh Allen averaging five
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: TDs a game in that stadium and has started off
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: 2026 on fire. Three more passing TDs, 248 yards, has
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: a 120-plus rate in each game this year. Five TDs,
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: no interceptions in 2026.
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: Allen fires, and that is held on for touchdown. Kincaid,
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: another one.
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: And forget the tush push. You need a toe or
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: a yard? Josh will get you a yard with green
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: nail polish on it. Believe me, there are ways, dude.
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: He can get you a yard by 3 o'clock this afternoon.
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: Scored twice with his legs, that's back-to-back two rushing TD
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: outings for Allen.
• 15:54
  Speaker 14: Rolling.
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: He'll run it in. Touchdown.
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: It wasn't just one-yard sneaks, either. though he looks unstoppable
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: if that's all they need. Clocked out with 69 rush
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: yards last week, too. Chargers defense also facing a hot
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: chef in the kitchen. After a ho-hum week one, James
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: Cook barrels in off a 135-yard, 6.4-per-carry one-score game.
• 16:20
  Speaker 15: Watch the block right here by 86. Kincaid on Harper
• 16:23
  Speaker 15: takes him out. Now it's one-on-one.
• 16:25
  Speaker 10: That jump cut is lethal.
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: With James Cook.
• 16:30
  Speaker 16: L.A.
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: 's defense trying to slow down a Buffalo offense that's
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: put up 36-plus points in each game, 41 last week,
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: converting 9-12 on third down. Perfect 5-for-5 in the red zone.
• 16:42
  Speaker 16: Second and a goal off the fake. Allen rolling, Allen throwing,
• 16:46
  Speaker 16: Allen connecting for the touchdown.
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: Allen and company staring down an L.A. defense that allowed
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: 24 points to the Raiders in their most recent loss,
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: had to deal with their own offense giving the ball
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: away three times, too, four if you count the safety.
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: But that's 24-plus points allowed back-to-back weeks to offenses nowhere
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: near as dangerous as Buffalo's.
• 17:06
  Speaker 11: Caught by Cody White!
• 17:09
  Speaker 2: What a catch!
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: And if they can't keep Kirk Cousins from throwing three
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: TDs over 250 yards on 8.7 per attempt for a
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: 113 rate, then how would they think they can stop
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: Allen right now?
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: He's going to take a shot. Tucker down there. Touchdown!
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: Chargers corner Cam Hart, who had a rough week one,
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: had a rough week two. Gave up a TD in
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: 71 yards. Trey Tucker going for 119 yards in a TD.
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: against their secondary. Unclear if Allen will have DJ Moore
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: this week, left their win over Detroit with a shoulder injury.
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: He'll for sure have Khalil Shakir, 38 yards versus Detroit,
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: 50 week one. Joshua Palmer rolls in off back-to-back scoring games,
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: 43 yards week two.
• 17:56
  Speaker 15: Nobody's back on the back end to help out. You
• 17:58
  Speaker 15: can see Maddox there has his arms up, kind of looking.
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: Keon Coleman did a nice job filling the void left
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: by Moore, finishing with 63 yards.
• 18:06
  Speaker 16: Caught Keon Coleman. To the 13-yard line. That is 14
• 18:11
  Speaker 16: first downs.
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: And L.A. has to be able to defend the tight
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: end position. Dawson Knox scored, as did Dalton Kincaid. Seven catches,
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: 95 yards. 95-plus yards in both games so far.
• 18:24
  Speaker 16: Team leader for Allen, who has one already tonight. Pass
• 18:28
  Speaker 16: is caught at the 50-yard line. And to the 41,
• 18:31
  Speaker 16: Dalton Kincaid.
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: Allen took two sacks in their most recent win. Right
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: tackle Spencer Brown getting beat on one.
• 18:37
  Speaker 17: But.
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: Allen was blitzed 55% of the time and only faced
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: a pressure rate of 34%, only lost five yards on
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: the two sacks, 31 pass attempts. They can live with
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: all that again if need be.
• 18:51
  Speaker 16: Allen scrambles. He can run, of course. One of the
• 18:54
  Speaker 16: best maybe ever on the ground with his legs. First down.
• 18:59
  Speaker 2: L.A.
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: 's pass rush only got to Cousins twice on 29
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: pass attempts. Khalil Mack with a sack. And they did
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: pressure Cousins over 40% of the time, at least.
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: Cousins in trouble, and Cousins is sacked.
• 19:12
  Speaker 11: It was Khalil Mack getting back there.
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: For the sack. The former Raider.
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: As for dealing with Cook, Chargers at least come off
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: a good game against the run. held Ashton Gentry to
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: 48 yards on 2-3 a carry.
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: Try on the left side, Gentry tripped up. Dante Jackson
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: came up.
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: Bill's defense does hit week three a little wobbly. They
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: played well early last week, ended the game stopping Detroit
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: on seven of their 11 third down tries, and some
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: of those early stops allowed Allen and company to build
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: a big cushion. Bradley Chubb comes in off a one
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: and a half bag night. Gregory Rousseau, with two of
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: their four sacks, he has two in each game thus far.
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: Down he goes at the 30. Greg Russo, two strip sacks.
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: Still, Buffalo allowed Detroit to convert three of four red
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: zone chances and has given up 31 points back-to-back weeks.
• 20:03
  Speaker 15: Your warrior is still fighting and competing, and that's why
• 20:07
  Speaker 15: he turned around at 22 to let him know.
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: Secondary still looking for a way to slow down the quarterback.
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: Herbert looking at a group that gave up over 300
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: yards and four TDs to Jared Goff, a 130-plus rate.
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: a week after giving up over 270 yards and two
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: TDs to C.J.
• 20:23
  Speaker 2: Stroud.
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: It's been a shaky start for their DB room. Corner D.
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: Alford gave up 85 yards and a touchdown to the Lions.
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: Team allowed Amonra St. Brown to score twice, along with
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: over 140 yards.
• 20:34
  Speaker 15: They're just kind of like setting up the defensive back.
• 20:38
  Speaker 15: And by the time he lands, he works inside of Benford.
• 20:41
  Speaker 5: Look at that ball.
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: Again, their play never really put them in danger last week,
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: but they would still like to clean up their play
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: versus the pass this week. Hampton does get a defense
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: that's been tough to run on so far. Held Jameer
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: Gibbs to 3-3 a carry, just 52 yards. Played the
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: run well the week before, too.
• 20:59
  Speaker 16: What a workload he had the other day. And he's
• 21:03
  Speaker 16: wrestled back at the line of scrimmage.
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: They might unless Justin Herbert wakes up. His 2026 has
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: not gotten off to a great start. Fewer than 200
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: yards versus Vegas. TD against two INTs. A sub-60 rate.
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: Picks in both games. Sub-90 rates in both.
• 21:19
  Speaker 11: Left throws and it is juggled and intercepted.
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: Picked off by Hezekiah Messes.
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: Offense Buffalo is facing hasn't scored 15 points yet, 14
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: both weeks. Mike McDaniel starting to take some heat from
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: bolt-up fans, 5 for 14 on third down last week.
• 21:40
  Speaker 11: Coming, Herbert, pump fakes in trouble, now gets rid of it,
• 21:42
  Speaker 11: and it's incomplete.
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: Herbert's line also needs to play better. He took three
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: sacks week two, faced pressure 54% of the time, and
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: the Raiders weren't blitz-happy yesterday. Every guy but their center
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: gave up a pressure rate of 12% or higher.
• 21:59
  Speaker 5: Feel how important this fourth quarter is.
• 22:01
  Speaker 4: Herbert.
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: Lost the football!
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: Trey Tucker caught one pass for 53 yards. Ladd McConkie
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: finished with 35. Aranda Gadsden, 18. Quentin Johnston, 7. Omerian Hampton,
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: the only Chargers O guy with a little something positive
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: to build off of. He lost a fumble, but he
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: did go for 94 rush yards on 4-1 to carry.
• 22:26
  Speaker 2: Hampton is going to pad his stats.
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: Who wants to get to 2-1? Jacksonville Jaguars at home
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: this week having to bounce back from their first loss
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: that saw their offense come to a slowdown worse than
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: Peter Gibbons' computer on a Friday afternoon.
• 22:43
  Speaker 5: Fires short of the goal line, and it's incomplete.
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: Hey, Peter, what's happening? Well, the New England Patriots are
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: what's happening. They're in town. Their O has been glitching
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: a lot too so far, but man, that defense is
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: taking care of business.
• 22:59
  Speaker 9: And here he is, trying to fight for time. Balls
• 23:01
  Speaker 9: on the ground, and it's scooped up! Scooped up and
• 23:05
  Speaker 9: run into the end zone!
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: Both these Ds are playing well in 2026, really, but
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: New England's won them their Week 2 contest, so that's
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: where we start. They held Seattle to 13 points in
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: their opener, upped the ante by keeping Pittsburgh to just
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: 3 points a week ago. Minuscule 3.5 yards per play
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: stopped them 10 times on 12 third-down tries.
• 23:28
  Speaker 4: Blitz.
• 23:29
  Speaker 9: Their secondary held Aaron Rodgers to 187 yards on 4.8
• 23:32
  Speaker 9: yards per attempt, picked him off, zero TDs obviously.
• 23:33
  Speaker 2: Can they play Trevor Lawrence as tough?
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: Just depends on which key law they get. The week
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: one version was unstoppable. Week two, different story, as he
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: only threw for 189 yards, no TDs, one INT for
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: a low 60s rate.
• 24:04
  Speaker 18: Slings it, intercepted, Riley Moss steps in front of Washington.
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: So, same deal with their offense, 34 points week one,
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: 13 versus Denver, fewer than five yards per play.
• 24:17
  Speaker 4: Snap, third and eight.
• 24:19
  Speaker 5: Lawrence fires downfield, incomplete.
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: They're hoping it was a Denver defense on the road
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: kind of thing, and their line can give Trev more
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: time this week, pressured on 45% of his throws while
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: facing a low blitz rate. Left tackle Anton Harrison gave
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: up a sack and a 19% pressure rate, according to NextGenStats.
• 24:39
  Speaker 2: Against Q Robinson. Oh, the running back tripped him.
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: Now they do battle with a pats front that blew
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: up Rodgers four times and man did they blow him
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: up on that one sack. Christian Ellis has no mercy
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: for the elderly, I guess.
• 24:54
  Speaker 2: My goodness, what a hit to the back of Aaron Rodgers.
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: New England's secondary comes off a game that saw them
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: fold every Pittsburgh pass catcher to fewer than 40 yards.
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: Only two Jags had more than 40 Week 2. Jacoby Myers, 28.
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: Tight end Brenton Strange, 14. Parker Washington has started 2026
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: off well. 98 yards versus Denver after starting off with 83.
• 25:19
  Speaker 18: In the pocket, laser beam downfield, caught by Washington, extending
• 25:24
  Speaker 18: to the one.
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: And Brian Thomas checked out with 40.
• 25:27
  Speaker 9: Beats the right guard, just slides away, and still delivers
• 25:31
  Speaker 9: the football.
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: But Thomas has got to get some sticky to his hands, man.
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: Bashaw Tootin has a little mojo to his walk ahead
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: of this game, 65 yards and a TD versus Denver,
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: hit at five a pop.
• 25:42
  Speaker 5: Eighth play of the drive, snap it.
• 25:45
  Speaker 2: Tutin turns the corner for the touchdown.
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: Facing a Patriots defense that held both Jalen Warren and
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: Rico Dowdle under four yards per carry, so tough sledding
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: there based on last week.
• 25:57
  Speaker 10: That's Dowdle for about three. Yeah, it hampered him.
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: Now, if they could get that offense of theirs going,
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: 10 points week one, only 20 week two, so I
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: guess they're headed in the right direction. Drake May did
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: average nine yards per attempt, completed three passes of 29-plus
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: yards last week.
• 26:18
  Speaker 2: All right, in the.
• 26:18
  Speaker 9: Meantime, Raritan, who was the touchdown maker for the Patriots
• 26:22
  Speaker 9: last week.
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: But May without a TD, another pick that was very undue.
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: Only 208 yards for a sub-80 rate, so back-to-back dud-like
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: games to start.
• 26:33
  Speaker 2: Oh, no.
• 26:33
  Speaker 9: Picked off right into the arms of Patrick Queen. He
• 26:38
  Speaker 9: underthrew his receiver.
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: He draws a Jags defense that hits Week 3 off
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: a mixed showing. On one hand, they held Denver to
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: 20 points after holding Cleveland to 10 Week 1. They
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: held Bo Nix to 1 TD while picking him off,
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: held Denver to 4 for 11 on 3rd down, 2
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: for 5 in the red zone.
• 26:55
  Speaker 5: Dials it up, and it's intercepted!
• 27:00
  Speaker 18: Jordan Lewis in the back of the end zone!
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: They need to be able to close games out, though,
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: which they did not do versus Nixon Company. Secondary gave
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: up 288 yards to Bowe, over 9 yards per attempt,
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: after letting Deshaun Watson hit it 9 per clip, gave
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: up a number of 20-plus yard passes. A 49-yarder to
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: Jalen Waddell let him go for 138 total. Corner Monteric
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: Brown allowed a team height 80 yards, according to NGS.
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: corner Jordan Lewis with 58 yards allowed and a touchdown.
• 27:31
  Speaker 2: Wide open, touchdown caught by Adkins.
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: Only two Pats enter off 40-plus yard games. Mack Hollins
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: only 18, DeMario Douglas 9, Hunter Henry with 40.
• 27:44
  Speaker 9: New England as May goes down the field. He's got
• 27:47
  Speaker 9: a wide open target.
• 27:48
  Speaker 2: It's Henry!
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: And Romeo Dobbs rebounded from a bad week one, 96
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: yards last week.
• 27:54
  Speaker 2: Wide open! It is Dobbs! And Dobbs makes the big play!
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: Drake dropped three times on 22 pass attempts. Right tackle
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: Morgan Moses gave up one and a half to T.J.
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: Watt and couldn't slow him down, allowing an 18% pressure rate.
• 28:11
  Speaker 2: For May, May is sacked, wrapped up, and T.J. Watt.
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: Josh Hines-Allen, Trayvon Walker held at bay last week. Jacksonville
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: didn't sack Knicks on 31 pass attempts. They blitzed 45%
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: of the time and only produced a 19% pressure rate.
• 28:29
  Speaker 2: That's rough.
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: They at least held Denver's rush attack under four a
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: carry while facing 28 attempts.
• 28:36
  Speaker 2: Stayed upright.
• 28:38
  Speaker 18: Third effort is not enough.
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: Now they squabble up with Ramondre Stevenson and Travion Henderson.
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: Henderson broke loose for a TD, 76 yards, 4-8 a carry,
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: and his first go of it in 2026.
• 28:49
  Speaker 19: And he is gone!
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: Stevenson, with 43 yards on 7-2 a run, did lose
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: a fumble. As a wise woman once said, it's so
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: cold in the D, and it's not even October yet.
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: Detroit at home this week. Is this a must-win game
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: for them? It's a must-play some semblance of defense at
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: the very least.
• 29:15
  Speaker 2: Humpfake going deep wide open. Touchdown, Joshua Palmer.
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: They welcome in the Jets this week, having to try
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: and rebound from a loss that no team in history
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: has ever had to try and rebound from.
• 29:30
  Speaker 7: Packers in overtime.
• 29:33
  Speaker 2: The rookies smack.
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: You hold your opponent under 200 yards of offense, they
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: give you 100 plus yards in penalties. and you win
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: the turnover battle. That is supposed to be the lock
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: of locks in the NFL because every team that had
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: done that since 1941 had won until last week. Thanks
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: to the Jets, the record of teams in that situation
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: now 1-44. Lions facing their old DC this week. Some
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: gangrene faithful are like, can you take him back? He
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: made some questionable calls that contributed to their late collapse
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: versus Green Bay. Jets also have to be more disciplined
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: after getting flagged 13 times. for 156 yards still the
• 30:20
  Speaker 1: Lions offense facing a Jets defense that has started the
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: year well held Tennessee to 10 points and then Green
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: Bay to 20 with OT needed for that last three
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: they held Jordan Love to five yards per attempt held
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: the Packers offense to four yards per play one for
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: nine on third down that's supposed to be enough to
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: win you a game in.
• 30:41
  Speaker 7: Yard line lost the football Given Jonathan Vilma and other chances.
• 30:47
  Speaker 2: To yell fumble.
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: Jared Goff hoping for a quicker start this week. He
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: piled up serious numbers in their loss to Buffalo. Over
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: 300 yards passing, four TDs, no picks for a 130
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: plus rate. has six TDs and zero interceptions in his
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: first two games.
• 31:04
  Speaker 2: Fires into the end zone. Hold in. There he is again. Gibbs.
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: Detroit has put up 31 points in both their games.
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: They're seven for nine in the red zone in 2026. Scoring,
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: in and of itself, not the problem.
• 31:18
  Speaker 16: Down, Goff stepping up. He's already thrown for 300 yards.
• 31:22
  Speaker 16: And add a few more.
• 31:23
  Speaker 2: St. Brown into the end zone.
• 31:25
  Speaker 1: Their offensive production last week largely came when they were
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: chasing points, though. To avoid that again, they need to
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: convert more third downs, especially early in the game. They
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: went four for 11 overall. O-line play partially to blame.
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: Goff took four sacks. They were missing Christian Mahogany and
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: Blake Miller. Right tackle Larry Borum gave up seven pressures,
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: a hefty 15% pressure rate, and one and a half sacks.
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: Left tackle Panay Sewell, right guard Tate Ratledge were tagged
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: with one and a half each as well by NextGenStats.
• 31:57
  Speaker 15: Rousseau ends up getting home. The entire pocket just collapsed
• 32:01
  Speaker 15: on Jared Goff.
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: You're like, that's four and a half. Yeah, it's one
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: of those different combinations of guys gave up halves across
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: the four they took. The Jets front, Goff and his
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: boys take on in this one, come off a three-bag
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: shopping trip. How about David Bailey looking to start his
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: NFL career with a sack and three straight? He's picked
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: up one in his first two.
• 32:21
  Speaker 2: Yard line, pump fake, and then low pass.
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: O-line also made it hard for Jameer Gibbs to get
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: it going. He's looking to bounce back as a runner
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: this week after being held to 52 yards on 3-3
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: a carry. New York would be happy if they played
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: him that tough. They didn't have any issues with Green
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: Bay's rush attack, holding it to 3.5 yards per carry,
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: just 63 yards. Jets DBs gave up 58 yards to
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: Matthew Golden, 41 yards and a TD to Christian Watson.
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: Corner Brandon Stevens allowed a team-high 52 yards, according to NextGenStats.
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: How will he fare when guarding Detroit's WR1, or wide
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: receiver one if you're not into the whole brevity thing?
• 33:14
  Speaker 1: Amon Ross St. Brown hits week three off back-to-back two
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: TD games. He blew up for 142 yards and nine
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: catches last week, too.
• 33:23
  Speaker 16: Under pressure throws, that's his second catch. Of course, the
• 33:26
  Speaker 16: minute you bring it up, he grabs another one, and
• 33:28
  Speaker 16: that's the first down at the 40.
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: Jamison Williams, 33 yards on four targets, fewer than 50
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: yards in his first two games. Isaac Tesla, 30 yards
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: after being shut out week one. Tight end Sam Laporta,
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: still key to Goff's game, six catches versus the Bills,
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: had five week one, found the zone a week ago.
• 33:48
  Speaker 2: Play fake, little toss, wide open, touchdown. Sam Laporta.
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: Gibbs, the pass catcher, scored 61 yards, has caught five
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: to six passes in each of their first two games.
• 34:00
  Speaker 15: And he throws in rhythm. And that time, really that
• 34:03
  Speaker 15: entire drive, you could see.
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: Lots of members of One Pride not happy with D.C.
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: Kelvin Shepard right now. Lions looked like they wanted to
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: make sure Buffalo's housewarming party went as smoothly as possible.
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: They hit this game as dazed and confused. As Slater
• 34:17
  Speaker 1: on a Friday night, 41 points allowed, let Buffalo convert
• 34:22
  Speaker 1: 9 of 12 third-down tries, didn't stop them once inside
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: the 20.
• 34:26
  Speaker 16: Their secondary followed up a game that saw them give
• 34:29
  Speaker 16: up over 400 yards to Tyler Shuck by allowing 248
• 34:30
  Speaker 16: yards and three TDs with no interceptions to Josh Allen,
• 34:32
  Speaker 16: a 120-plus.
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: Rate, Safety Thomas Harper gave up a touchdown in 48
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: yards week two. But when Geno looks for Waldo, he'll
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: find corner DJ Reed is wearing the funny hat and glasses.
• 34:55
  Speaker 1: Gave up a perfect 158.3 rating to Buffalo, allowing a
• 34:59
  Speaker 1: team high 63 yards and a TD. A week after,
• 35:03
  Speaker 1: allowing 134 yards to the Saints.
• 35:06
  Speaker 2: Going deep wide open. Touchdown, Joshua Palmer.
• 35:12
  Speaker 1: Now, here comes Geno. Smith would like to show he
• 35:15
  Speaker 1: can come up in the clutch, but he still hits
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: week three off a solid performance, 247 yards, a TD
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: with no picks, 27 of 41 for a 90-rate game.
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: Smith throws, end zone, touchdown!
• 35:31
  Speaker 2: Garrett Wilson.
• 35:32
  Speaker 1: Geno's top week two target, Adonai Mitchell. Six catches, 63 yards,
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: 60 plus yards in each game so far.
• 35:40
  Speaker 3: I think Keyshawn Mason is a really good corner, but
• 35:42
  Speaker 3: they are going after him.
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: Garrett Wilson scored with 57 yards. He's picked up at
• 35:47
  Speaker 1: least 55 yards in each contest.
• 35:49
  Speaker 2: Third and 11. Smith throws and sliding and making the catch.
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: Tight end Kenyon Sadiq with 38 yards. Brees Hall, 63
• 36:00
  Speaker 1: receiving yards.
• 36:00
  Speaker 7: But KDOT will tell you, 17 points, it's not enough,
• 36:05
  Speaker 7: and neither is four yards per play.
• 36:07
  Speaker 2: If they don't want fans turning the TV.
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: Off, They should find a way to get their foot
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: on the gas and be more productive all game long,
• 36:24
  Speaker 1: not just for a drive or two. Somebody's got to
• 36:27
  Speaker 1: do it.
• 36:27
  Speaker 2: Direct run downhill, and look at that.
• 36:30
  Speaker 3: There is no penetration, no push, excuse me, from the
• 36:34
  Speaker 3: offensive line.
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: Better pass protection would help, too. Smith took four sacks
• 36:38
  Speaker 1: week two. Only two blamed on linemen, but he faced
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: a 49% pressure rate, and all five of their big
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: uglies gave up pressure rates of 10% or more. Both
• 36:49
  Speaker 1: tackles allowed eight pressures each. Every time they cut away
• 36:59
  Speaker 1: to Aiden Hutchinson, you couldn't help but feel bad for
• 37:01
  Speaker 1: the guy. He's doing what he can, dropped Allen once,
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: Detroit only two sacks.
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: The Lions blitzed 55% of the time. They only generated
• 37:08
  Speaker 2: pressure 34% of the time.
• 37:18
  Speaker 1: And most of the time when they did, Allen simply
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: escaped with his legs. They gave up 69 rush yards
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: to him along with two TDs and also gave up
• 37:27
  Speaker 1: 135 yards on 6-4 per run to James Cook, who
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: also scored on them. So there isn't one facet of
• 37:35
  Speaker 1: their defense that's not needing a tune-up ahead of Week 3.
• 37:38
  Speaker 16: And around the corner, and there goes Cook. And Cook
• 37:42
  Speaker 16: will be taken out of bounds.
• 37:44
  Speaker 1: Lions also need to cut down on the penalties got
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: flagged 10 times in their week two loss. But let's
• 37:50
  Speaker 1: be honest, some of them were the phantom variety that
• 37:53
  Speaker 1: one holding call really hurt, too.
• 37:56
  Speaker 15: You know, the crowd noise, respecting the potential pass rush
• 37:59
  Speaker 15: and the quickness off the edge by Hoyt.
• 38:01
  Speaker 1: Hall, as a runner, not as effective as he was
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: as a pass catcher, held the 29 yards on 1.8
• 38:07
  Speaker 1: to carry. Jets rush attack in need of a spark, too.
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: Tennessee Titans hit the road week three, hoping maybe they
• 38:15
  Speaker 1: can come up with their first win of 2026 after
• 38:18
  Speaker 1: coming up oh so close to a huge upset last week.
• 38:22
  Speaker 20: Blitz is coming for Philadelphia, and Ward just slings it
• 38:25
  Speaker 20: to nobody in particular.
• 38:27
  Speaker 2: It was deflected, and the game is over.
• 38:30
  Speaker 1: They are in New York facing the Giants, who left
• 38:33
  Speaker 1: Hollywood with that oh-not-again feeling.
• 38:35
  Speaker 2: Another look at the hit.
• 38:38
  Speaker 1: And it looks like that is that, at least for
• 38:42
  Speaker 1: a while. What a major bummer. So it's the famous
• 38:45
  Speaker 1: Jameis show going forward. Maybe a full week of practice
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: will help. Winston wasn't able to spark anything up last
• 38:51
  Speaker 1: week off the bench. 111 yards passing, only 4.1 yards
• 38:56
  Speaker 1: per attempt through a goal line interception, sub 40 rate.
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: G-Men's offense only put up two field goals, three for
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: 14 on third down, a brutal 3.3 yards per play.
• 39:08
  Speaker 1: Titans defense that comes to town isn't showing up rattled
• 39:16
  Speaker 1: despite coming up short versus Philadelphia. The last drive hurt
• 39:20
  Speaker 1: led to the 24 points allowed, but they set the
• 39:22
  Speaker 1: offense up for one TD. Imani Hooker's INT returns 92 yards.
• 39:28
  Speaker 1: They held Philadelphia at a yards per play, picked off
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: Jalen Hurt's twice.
• 39:33
  Speaker 20: Without blitzing much, Tennessee.
• 39:36
  Speaker 14: Sacked Hurt's three times and pressured him.
• 39:44
  Speaker 1: A nice 40% of his throws, Jacob Martin, John Franklin Myers,
• 39:49
  Speaker 1: Jeffrey Simmons, all signed on the dotted line.
• 39:52
  Speaker 18: Get yourself into a decent third down situation.
• 39:55
  Speaker 20: Well, that's the time to ratchet up the pass rush,
• 39:58
  Speaker 20: and Jacob Martin.
• 39:59
  Speaker 1: They go after a Giants O-line that gave up two
• 40:02
  Speaker 1: sacks and a fat 58% pressure rate. NextGenStats tagged Jermaine
• 40:07
  Speaker 1: Illuminor with both sacks allowed and a hefty 17% pressure
• 40:10
  Speaker 1: rate allowed. Blue fans, that's what NGS had. Don't kill
• 40:14
  Speaker 1: the messenger.
• 40:15
  Speaker 19: Winston steps through, but caught from behind and brought down.
• 40:20
  Speaker 1: I found out this past offseason, Giants faithful are very
• 40:23
  Speaker 1: protective of J.E. Real ones know what I mean. Only
• 40:26
  Speaker 1: one New York pass catcher comes off a 35-plus yard game.
• 40:30
  Speaker 1: Tight end Isaiah Likely, 33. Malachi Fields, 30. Malik Nabors
• 40:35
  Speaker 1: just won. He got hurt in the middle of the game.
• 40:37
  Speaker 1: Darnell Mooney led the team with 48.
• 40:39
  Speaker 2: Winston protected. Floats it. He's got his guy. That's Mooney.
• 40:44
  Speaker 19: Darnell Mooney is out of bounds near the 30.
• 40:47
  Speaker 1: Tennessee's secondary they battle with gave up 74 yards to
• 40:51
  Speaker 1: Dontavian Wicks, 117 in a TD to Devontae Smith. Four
• 40:55
  Speaker 1: different defenders gave up 40 to 50 yards each. But
• 40:58
  Speaker 1: the Titans didn't allow any Philadelphia runners to leave with
• 41:01
  Speaker 1: 35 yards. Held Saquon to nine yards on four attempts.
• 41:05
  Speaker 1: He did get hurt. but they stuffed him when he
• 41:07
  Speaker 1: was out there.
• 41:07
  Speaker 2: It is Saquon Barkley.
• 41:09
  Speaker 20: This was a problem last week, getting hit behind the
• 41:12
  Speaker 20: line of scrimmage by Washington.
• 41:13
  Speaker 1: This week, it's Cam Scadaboo, hoping for a better week three,
• 41:17
  Speaker 1: just 36 yards on three of carry versus the Rams.
• 41:20
  Speaker 19: Toss to Cam, kind of a tight formation and a
• 41:23
  Speaker 19: short toss, and Scadaboo got maybe half a yard.
• 41:26
  Speaker 1: Titans offense still looking to crack 21 points. Week one, 10, 20.
• 41:31
  Speaker 1: Week two, so trending in the right direction, I guess.
• 41:34
  Speaker 1: Cam Ward punched in two short runs versus Philly.
• 41:37
  Speaker 20: He threw for 9.2 yards per attempt, a rate over
• 41:40
  Speaker 20: 90 but no TDs, but several big chunk plays.
• 41:42
  Speaker 2: Certainly looked better compared to Week 1.
• 41:43
  Speaker 1: Giants D, Ward takes on, gave up 28 points to L.A.,
• 41:45
  Speaker 1: tough with their offense working against them. but didn't stop
• 42:04
  Speaker 1: any of the Rams' three red zone trips, gave up
• 42:07
  Speaker 1: eight yards per play, gave up four touchdowns to Matthew
• 42:10
  Speaker 1: Stafford on a hefty 10.5 yards per attempt, allowed a
• 42:14
  Speaker 1: 130-plus rate to him. Ward took two sacks, 20 pass attempts.
• 42:24
  Speaker 1: Left tackle J.C. Latham gave up one, according to NGS.
• 42:27
  Speaker 1: Fernando Carmona gave up one along with a 16% pressure rate.
• 42:31
  Speaker 1: That's high for a guard.
• 42:33
  Speaker 5: But so costly, especially since you just had all that momentum.
• 42:36
  Speaker 2: You're inside the 10-yard line. You're now sitting there going.
• 42:39
  Speaker 1: New York's pass rush only got to Stafford once on
• 42:42
  Speaker 1: 31 pass attempts and barely pressured him. Made it tough
• 42:45
  Speaker 1: on their secondary as they gave up two TDs and
• 42:48
  Speaker 1: 195 yards to Devontae Adams. Safety Tyler Newbin tagged with
• 42:53
  Speaker 1: a whopping 143 yards. gave up seven catches on 10
• 42:57
  Speaker 1: targets faced. Alec Ayomaner, the only Titan with more than
• 43:01
  Speaker 1: 40 yards, hauled in a 41-yarder as part of a
• 43:04
  Speaker 1: 69-yard game.
• 43:05
  Speaker 20: Who hurdles a defender over the top!
• 43:09
  Speaker 1: And as for the ground game, Tajay Spears went for
• 43:13
  Speaker 1: 41 yards on 5'9, a carry week two. Tony Pollard,
• 43:16
  Speaker 1: 64 yards, 4'6, a run.
• 43:18
  Speaker 20: Multiple blockers and a big run near midfield. They move
• 43:22
  Speaker 20: it into Philadelphia territory.
• 43:24
  Speaker 1: They get a wobbly Giants rush defense too. They gave
• 43:27
  Speaker 1: up 163 rush yards. 85 allowed to Kyron Williams.
• 43:31
  Speaker 10: 7-1 per.
• 43:32
  Speaker 1: 79 yards to Blake Corum at a 6-6 clip.
• 43:35
  Speaker 19: Corum go over the right side and there's no containment.
• 43:38
  Speaker 2: Corum with a big run.
• 43:41
  Speaker 1: Arizona Cardinals head to the Bay this week looking to
• 43:44
  Speaker 1: recapture that week one buzz they were feeling.
• 43:47
  Speaker 21: Extra pressure. Brissette is floating one. Did Julian Love come
• 43:51
  Speaker 21: up with the pick? The official says yes.
• 43:54
  Speaker 1: Won't be easy to feel groovy again facing the 2-0
• 43:58
  Speaker 1: 49ers who just showed they are not prone to looking
• 44:00
  Speaker 1: past their opponent.
• 44:02
  Speaker 21: Good play fake. Purdy chugging for the goal line. Purdy
• 44:05
  Speaker 21: in for the touchdown.
• 44:07
  Speaker 1: Brock Purdy is feeling it to start 2026. BCB ball
• 44:11
  Speaker 1: in full effect right now. Ran for 30 yards week
• 44:14
  Speaker 1: two with that TD. plus through two piled up 287
• 44:18
  Speaker 1: yards a redonkulous 13 yards per attempt a 149 rate
• 44:24
  Speaker 1: just short of perfect.
• 44:25
  Speaker 21: Play action use check down the sideline touchdown san.
• 44:30
  Speaker 1: Francisco arizona in turn dealing with a niners offense that
• 44:34
  Speaker 1: put up 27 plus points in each game 35 last
• 44:38
  Speaker 1: week five for seven moving the sticks A perfect 5-for-5
• 44:42
  Speaker 1: inside the 20.
• 44:43
  Speaker 2: McCaffrey, second and goal, in for the touchdown.
• 44:46
  Speaker 1: Cardinals defense, meantime, just gave up 31. Purdy looking at
• 44:51
  Speaker 1: a secondary that gave up three TDs to Drew Locke.
• 44:54
  Speaker 1: 235 yards on nine per attempt, a rate allowed close
• 44:58
  Speaker 1: to 140, so they have a lot of cleanup work
• 45:01
  Speaker 1: to do week over week.
• 45:02
  Speaker 22: Towards the sideline, it's a Jigma. Jackson, Smith, and Jigma.
• 45:06
  Speaker 1: Their secondary gave up 155 yards and all three TDs
• 45:10
  Speaker 1: to Jackson Smith and Jigba. Next-gen stats tagged safety Buda
• 45:14
  Speaker 1: Baker with two of the touchdowns and a hefty 105 yards.
• 45:18
  Speaker 13: Jigba on Buda Baker, stabs him to the outside, cuts
• 45:21
  Speaker 13: back inside.
• 45:23
  Speaker 1: Cardinals lost two corners to injury, too, so it could
• 45:26
  Speaker 1: get worse. Arizona's pass rush only got to lock once
• 45:29
  Speaker 1: on 26 pass attempts, didn't even pressure lock 30% of
• 45:33
  Speaker 1: the time, and now they have to try and get
• 45:35
  Speaker 1: to Purdy who wasn't sacked once on 22 throws, he
• 45:38
  Speaker 1: was blitzed 40% of the time too and only faced
• 45:41
  Speaker 1: pressure 24% of the time. Made it easy to complete
• 45:45
  Speaker 1: long passes, like the 40-yarder he hooked up with George
• 45:48
  Speaker 1: Kittle on. He scored and went for 80 yards.
• 45:51
  Speaker 22: With time, to the end zone, it's Kittle!
• 45:54
  Speaker 2: His first touchdown since the return!
• 45:58
  Speaker 1: Six different San Fran guys had 25-plus yards Week 2.
• 46:02
  Speaker 1: Kyle Juszczyk scored with 27. Debo had 31. Demarcus Robinson, 31.
• 46:08
  Speaker 1: Though he got hurt, he's going to miss a few weeks.
• 46:10
  Speaker 1: Mike Evans also left the game hurt after going for
• 46:13
  Speaker 1: 54 yards. Hip injury, but they think he'll be okay
• 46:16
  Speaker 1: this week.
• 46:17
  Speaker 14: Resets, finds Evans, loping down the sidelines, and Evans out
• 46:21
  Speaker 14: of bounds with the one.
• 46:23
  Speaker 1: And Christian McCaffrey hauled in 43 receiving yards.
• 46:26
  Speaker 14: Middle, it's McCaffrey inside the 10, rolling his way to
• 46:30
  Speaker 14: the 1.
• 46:31
  Speaker 1: CMC comes in off a rough game down low, though,
• 46:33
  Speaker 1: 23 yards on 10 attempts. He at least made two
• 46:36
  Speaker 1: trips to Bob Ross land.
• 46:38
  Speaker 21: McCaffrey leaping in for the touchdown.
• 46:41
  Speaker 1: Kalen Black only 25 yards, so that's the area they
• 46:45
  Speaker 1: hope to shine up a little this week. Arizona's entire
• 46:48
  Speaker 1: offense needs Mr. Miyagi to get Daniel LaRusso to wax
• 46:52
  Speaker 1: it up. Only seven points versus Seattle, three for 12
• 46:55
  Speaker 1: on third down, and these numbers are brutal. 151 total
• 47:00
  Speaker 1: yards of offense on a minuscule 3.2 yards per play.
• 47:04
  Speaker 21: We'll throw into the dirt. Harrison was in the area,
• 47:07
  Speaker 21: but he just didn't want to be back there when
• 47:09
  Speaker 21: the Seahawks closed in on him.
• 47:11
  Speaker 1: Jacoby Brissett enters as dazed and confused as it gets.
• 47:15
  Speaker 1: 95 yards on 3.4 per attempt. Almost would have been
• 47:19
  Speaker 1: better not to drop back at that rate. He got
• 47:21
  Speaker 1: picked off.
• 47:22
  Speaker 2: You cool, man?
• 47:26
  Speaker 1: Uh, no, not after that kind of game. He took
• 47:29
  Speaker 1: two sacks on 28 pass attempts, which isn't so bad,
• 47:32
  Speaker 1: but he got pressured over 40% of the time, even
• 47:35
  Speaker 1: though he only got blitzed on 19% of his throws.
• 47:38
  Speaker 1: NextGenStats tagged left tackle Parris Johnson with one sack allowed
• 47:43
  Speaker 1: and a whopping 19% pressure rate.
• 47:45
  Speaker 2: Brissette, and he'll go down.
• 47:47
  Speaker 1: Brissette handled the pressure he faced about as well as
• 47:50
  Speaker 1: Phil Dunphy does, and now here comes a 49ers pass
• 47:53
  Speaker 1: rush that buried Malik Willis four times on just 23
• 47:56
  Speaker 1: pass attempts. Jacoby will need to be ready for heat.
• 47:59
  Speaker 1: as San Francisco sent 5-plus 46% of the time.
• 48:03
  Speaker 21: Willis on the run, and Willis runs out of bounds
• 48:06
  Speaker 21: and takes a loss at the 10.
• 48:07
  Speaker 10: Fred Warner there to shove him out.
• 48:09
  Speaker 1: Success is 1% inspiration, 98% perspiration, and 2% attention to detail.
• 48:15
  Speaker 1: Secondary Brissette gets this week did give up a 77-yard
• 48:18
  Speaker 1: TD to Willis, which allowed him to get out of
• 48:21
  Speaker 1: Dodge with a 100-plus rate. Cornerback Upton Stout on the
• 48:25
  Speaker 1: hook for that bomb, according to NGS.
• 48:27
  Speaker 23: Actually, Upton Stout's down inside a little bit more, and
• 48:30
  Speaker 23: he's looking into the backfield.
• 48:32
  Speaker 2: He has no help over the top.
• 48:33
  Speaker 1: But that was the only real slip-up they suffered. They
• 48:36
  Speaker 1: still held Willis to less than 200 yards, held Miami
• 48:39
  Speaker 1: to 13 points, so haven't given up 14 in a
• 48:42
  Speaker 1: game so far.
• 48:43
  Speaker 21: In some trouble, able to break free and throw over
• 48:46
  Speaker 21: the middle incomplete.
• 48:47
  Speaker 1: Arizona's Trey McBride has a shot to start the year
• 48:50
  Speaker 1: with a touchdown and three straight. He accounted for their
• 48:52
  Speaker 1: lone week two touchdown, 41 yards on eight catches.
• 48:56
  Speaker 9: Well, when you've got 85, you've got a chance to
• 48:58
  Speaker 9: do something special.
• 48:59
  Speaker 1: But not much action from anybody else. Michael Wilson saw
• 49:03
  Speaker 1: seven targets, only 18 yards. Marvin Harrison, only one target.
• 49:07
  Speaker 1: Zero yards. Kendrick Bourne, 11 yards. And Jeremiah Love also
• 49:12
  Speaker 1: hits this contest cold. 29 yards, nine carries for 3-2
• 49:16
  Speaker 1: a run.
• 49:16
  Speaker 2: And Love will lose a yard.
• 49:18
  Speaker 1: Tries to get it going against DeSantis. Fran front that
• 49:20
  Speaker 1: held Devon Achan to less than 4 yards per carry.
• 49:23
  Speaker 1: So another tough test lies ahead.
• 49:26
  Speaker 2: Achan again.
• 49:27
  Speaker 21: And Achan this time runs right into the arms of
• 49:30
  Speaker 21: Grayson Holton.
• 49:33
  Speaker 1: Lamar, Derek, Dak, CD, they've all been practicing the Samba
• 49:37
  Speaker 1: this week. Maybe the Pacino, because when they celebrate a
• 49:40
  Speaker 1: TD in Rio, they best do it right. The flock, though,
• 49:44
  Speaker 1: not doing much celebrating last week, just a lot of fuming.
• 49:48
  Speaker 24: It comes down to this. Shuck, again on the keeper.
• 49:51
  Speaker 24: Did he get the push? Touchdown!
• 49:55
  Speaker 2: Boy, and this, if he got in, this is just
• 49:58
  Speaker 2: by a whisker.
• 49:59
  Speaker 14: I don't think he got the ball across.
• 50:01
  Speaker 2: After review, the ruling of the field stands as called.
• 50:05
  Speaker 1: Hey, man, if penalties and face masks can't be reviewed,
• 50:08
  Speaker 1: somebody explain how that was a TD. I will wait.
• 50:12
  Speaker 1: Cowboys head to South America vibing, though. The stripes not
• 50:15
  Speaker 1: only favored them, their offense snapped, too. They seemed ready
• 50:19
  Speaker 1: to party.
• 50:19
  Speaker 2: Here's Prescott. Going deep for CeeDee Lamb.
• 50:22
  Speaker 25: Up.
• 50:23
  Speaker 5: Lamb.
• 50:24
  Speaker 2: Got him. Touchdown, Dallas.
• 50:27
  Speaker 26: Prescott now has the most touchdown passes in Dallas Cowboys history.
• 50:31
  Speaker 1: Prescott may not be a week one aficionado. But after
• 50:34
  Speaker 1: he's warmed up, look out, dropped 279 yards and four
• 50:38
  Speaker 1: TDs with no picks week two, hits Brazil off a gem.
• 50:42
  Speaker 26: Prescott back, it's caught, touchdown Cowboys, Jake Ferguson.
• 50:47
  Speaker 1: So does CeeDee Lamb, 153 yards and two TDs, scored
• 50:51
  Speaker 1: week one too so he's looking for a three-game scoring
• 50:54
  Speaker 1: streak to start his 2026.
• 50:56
  Speaker 2: Fake throw cd lamb touchdown.
• 51:00
  Speaker 1: Dallas cowboys offense rumbles in off a 37-point outing got
• 51:05
  Speaker 1: some slushies while moving the sticks seven of 11 times
• 51:08
  Speaker 1: converted three of four red zone trips.
• 51:10
  Speaker 26: Throw in it is caught for a first down out
• 51:12
  Speaker 26: there to ferguson who had the touchdown earlier.
• 51:15
  Speaker 1: Baltimore's defense nice week one take away seven from their
• 51:19
  Speaker 1: total last week, and they'd have fared even better, held
• 51:22
  Speaker 1: New Orleans to 4.7 yards per play.
• 51:24
  Speaker 23: Chandler Rivers, no hesitation, beats the block, shoots his gun,
• 51:29
  Speaker 23: perfect form tackle, and a huge play.
• 51:32
  Speaker 1: Technically, 23 and 24 points allowed in their first two games, though,
• 51:36
  Speaker 1: and the secondary DAC faces gave up a 100-plus rate
• 51:39
  Speaker 1: to Tyler Shuck, over 250 yards, a touchdown, no picks,
• 51:43
  Speaker 1: Safety Jalen Hawkins gave up a team-high 90 yards according
• 51:46
  Speaker 1: to NextGenStats. Safety Malachi Starks allowed a touchdown.
• 51:50
  Speaker 2: He bites on the corner route.
• 51:52
  Speaker 23: That's Starks, and Shuck fires it, a dart to Olave
• 51:56
  Speaker 23: for the touchdown.
• 51:57
  Speaker 1: They gave up 86 yards and a TD to Chris Olave,
• 52:00
  Speaker 1: 64 yards to Devon Bailey, and 66 yards to tight
• 52:04
  Speaker 1: end Jawan Johnson. Dallas' tight end Jake Ferguson scored twice
• 52:08
  Speaker 1: versus the Commanders, 43 yards.
• 52:11
  Speaker 2: It is caught! Touchdown! Jake Ferguson, number two!
• 52:16
  Speaker 1: George Pickens chipped in 40 yards.
• 52:18
  Speaker 2: Who's open?
• 52:20
  Speaker 26: Pickens gets smacked! And there's a penalty, but he held
• 52:23
  Speaker 26: on to the football.
• 52:24
  Speaker 1: Dak was sacked twice by Washington, threw 31 times, so
• 52:28
  Speaker 1: not a bad ratio, but he was pressured over 40%
• 52:30
  Speaker 1: of the time. Cooper Beebe gave up a sack and
• 52:33
  Speaker 1: an 11% pressure rate, which is high for a center.
• 52:36
  Speaker 1: That could be something Nnamdi Madubike takes advantage of if
• 52:40
  Speaker 1: he returns from injury. Either way, though, Baltimore's pass rush
• 52:44
  Speaker 1: comes off a three-sack outing. Trey Hendrickson, Mike Green. Tavius
• 52:48
  Speaker 1: Robinson doing the damage, Robinson with sacks in his first
• 52:51
  Speaker 1: two games.
• 52:52
  Speaker 24: And Baltimore tightened up the screws on the run defense,
• 52:54
  Speaker 24: holding New Orleans to 65 rush yards on just 2-4
• 52:56
  Speaker 24: a carry. Javonte Williams comes in cold, held to 30
• 52:58
  Speaker 24: yards and 2-5 a run versus Washington.
• 53:16
  Speaker 1: Under 3-5 a carry in each game so far.
• 53:19
  Speaker 2: Hit right away is Williams, who breaks free, but swarmed.
• 53:23
  Speaker 1: Stopping the run, though, is a bigger deal if you're Dallas' defense.
• 53:26
  Speaker 1: They have the King and Lamar to deal with. Cowboys
• 53:29
  Speaker 1: gave up a lot of yards to Jackson Dart week one,
• 53:32
  Speaker 1: then gave up 69 rush yards to Jaden Daniels last week,
• 53:35
  Speaker 1: and he didn't finish the game.
• 53:37
  Speaker 2: Daniels gonna run. Why not? It's work today. Big hole,
• 53:40
  Speaker 2: Jaden Daniels!
• 53:41
  Speaker 1: Lamar only ran four times versus New Orleans, 8-5 a carry,
• 53:45
  Speaker 1: ran more week one, And so did Derrick. Henry still
• 53:49
  Speaker 1: scored again, 68 yards on 4-3 a run versus the Saints.
• 53:52
  Speaker 24: Henry looking for a crease. Henry in for the Baltimore touchdown.
• 53:58
  Speaker 1: But 16 attempts, they always seem to have these games
• 54:02
  Speaker 1: where they don't feed them enough. But you'd think they'd
• 54:04
  Speaker 1: load him up versus Dallas, even though they won the game.
• 54:07
  Speaker 1: 182 rush yards allowed overall at a 5-7 clip.
• 54:12
  Speaker 26: Big hole for Rashad White, who bursts his way inside
• 54:16
  Speaker 26: the 15.
• 54:17
  Speaker 1: Jackson had to play without Zay Flowers. Hopefully he's back
• 54:20
  Speaker 1: this week. You know that dude has serious dance moves prepped.
• 54:23
  Speaker 1: Rashad Bateman led the way in his wake, 88 yards
• 54:26
  Speaker 1: into TD.
• 54:27
  Speaker 24: Dead pass, pinpoint, it's Bateman for the touchdown.
• 54:32
  Speaker 1: Mark Andrews, 49 yards week two.
• 54:34
  Speaker 24: Jackson over the middle, delivers a strike, and this should
• 54:37
  Speaker 24: be a Baltimore first down.
• 54:38
  Speaker 1: Devontae Walker with a 47-yarder.
• 54:41
  Speaker 24: This is where he was so deadly last week, takes
• 54:43
  Speaker 24: a shot, there's a flag thrown, and it is caught.
• 54:47
  Speaker 2: Devontae Walker.
• 54:49
  Speaker 1: Jackson with one TD, 235 yards last week.
• 54:53
  Speaker 24: Second at 10, Jackson throws a dart.
• 54:55
  Speaker 1: Wasn't able to produce on the final drive though. Last
• 54:59
  Speaker 1: pass intercepted, so Ravens offense clocked out with just 17 points.
• 55:04
  Speaker 24: Picked off, and the Saints turn out the lights on
• 55:07
  Speaker 24: the Ravens.
• 55:08
  Speaker 1: Dallas' defense with a better week two. In their case,
• 55:11
  Speaker 1: the instant replay gods did save them seven points. so
• 55:15
  Speaker 1: they held Washington to 20.
• 55:16
  Speaker 26: So they ruled incomplete. The call on the field was
• 55:19
  Speaker 26: a touchdown. It was reversed, and that looked like the
• 55:22
  Speaker 26: right call.
• 55:22
  Speaker 1: The secondary Lamar Battles gave up two touchdowns, one each
• 55:26
  Speaker 1: to Daniels and Marcus Mariota, allowed a 99-plus rate to each.
• 55:30
  Speaker 1: Both TDs allowed to Stephon Diggs, and they didn't sack
• 55:34
  Speaker 1: either quarterback once.
• 55:35
  Speaker 2: Throwing, end zone corner, Diggs. He's got it!
• 55:40
  Speaker 1: But if you want glass half full numbers, only 207
• 55:42
  Speaker 1: yards allowed, and they held Washington's passing attack to 5-9
• 55:47
  Speaker 1: per attempt. A zero sack bunch week two versus an
• 55:50
  Speaker 1: O-line that gave up three, and the Ravens left tackle.
• 55:53
  Speaker 1: Ronnie Stanley left hurt. Before he left, he gave up
• 55:56
  Speaker 1: five pressures and a 17.9 pressure rate. His backup gave
• 56:01
  Speaker 1: up an 18% pressure rate. Center Javon Gwynn gave up
• 56:05
  Speaker 1: one and a half sacks, according to NGS.
• 56:07
  Speaker 24: Shot out of a cannon, and by the time Jackson
• 56:10
  Speaker 24: saw him, it was too late.
• 56:13
  Speaker 1: Hey, look at this, a couple of 1-1 teams getting
• 56:16
  Speaker 1: down in this one, both rolling off wins. Carolina on
• 56:19
  Speaker 1: the road in Cleveland, feeling pretty good about that QB
• 56:22
  Speaker 1: of theirs.
• 56:23
  Speaker 5: Carolina with a bounce back.
• 56:25
  Speaker 1: They will be met by a pretty raucous dog pound
• 56:27
  Speaker 1: that gets to cheer on its team for the first
• 56:30
  Speaker 1: time this year, and maybe cheer on their signal caller,
• 56:33
  Speaker 1: which they aren't really used to doing, right?
• 56:36
  Speaker 2: And Deshaun Watson and the Browns, 1-1.
• 56:39
  Speaker 1: Hey man, Deshaun Watson faced off with the guy many
• 56:41
  Speaker 1: Browns fans viewed, as the guy that got away and
• 56:45
  Speaker 1: went 24 of 30 for 238 yards, two TDs, and
• 56:49
  Speaker 1: no picks. It's as good as he's looked in years
• 56:51
  Speaker 1: for a full game. So what if he's finally refinding
• 56:55
  Speaker 1: the form that led to that big trade?
• 56:57
  Speaker 22: Touchdown, 17 yards from Deshaun Watson.
• 57:03
  Speaker 1: To keep it going, he has to dice up a
• 57:05
  Speaker 1: Panthers defense and secondary that you can best describe as
• 57:09
  Speaker 1: As the mayor of Halloweentown over two weeks, all nervous
• 57:13
  Speaker 1: and twitchy versus Caleb Williams and the Bears giving up
• 57:15
  Speaker 1: 59 points. But then, all smiles last week versus Atlanta,
• 57:20
  Speaker 1: holding them to three points. Coming up with three INTs,
• 57:24
  Speaker 1: one pick six, so that's basically like holding them to
• 57:27
  Speaker 1: minus four points.
• 57:29
  Speaker 6: From looking like a train wreck to just 4.3 yards
• 57:31
  Speaker 6: per play, four for 13 on third down, zero red
• 57:33
  Speaker 6: zone trips allowed.
• 57:42
  Speaker 4: That's a really solid defensive play.
• 57:44
  Speaker 2: Really good play.
• 57:45
  Speaker 1: Yes, they were dealing with Cooper Rush and Jack Strand
• 57:48
  Speaker 1: and an offense that hasn't crossed the 20 once this year.
• 57:52
  Speaker 1: By comparison, Cleveland's 23 points last week makes them look
• 57:56
  Speaker 1: like a juggernaut, but they still have a lot of
• 57:58
  Speaker 1: work to do. Fewer than five yards per play is rough,
• 58:02
  Speaker 1: and their run game has been almost non-existent in each
• 58:05
  Speaker 1: game so far. Quinshawn Judkins went from 2.8 a carry
• 58:09
  Speaker 1: week one to 1.8 per last week.
• 58:12
  Speaker 2: They go to Judkins, he tries to make one man miss,
• 58:15
  Speaker 2: and he cannot.
• 58:18
  Speaker 1: Maybe he gets it fired up versus Carolina's defense. They
• 58:21
  Speaker 1: did give up 157 rush yards to Atlanta. Sure, 72
• 58:25
  Speaker 1: on 4-5 a pop to Bijon is expected, but they
• 58:28
  Speaker 1: also gave up 51 yards to Brian Robinson on 4-6
• 58:32
  Speaker 1: a carry, and they got gashed by Chicago's running backs
• 58:35
  Speaker 1: in the opener. Panthers pass rush hits week three off
• 58:40
  Speaker 1: a three sack game. Jalen Phillips with his second in
• 58:43
  Speaker 1: as many games. Devin Lloyd coming in en fuego as
• 58:47
  Speaker 1: he not only had that pick six, he had three
• 58:49
  Speaker 1: passes defensed, two TFLs and a sack.
• 58:53
  Speaker 13: Devin Lloyd has put a dinosaur sized footprint on this first.
• 58:57
  Speaker 4: Half for Carolina.
• 58:58
  Speaker 1: Carolina turned up the blitz knob, sending five plus 53%
• 59:01
  Speaker 1: of the time last week. Watson was blitzed 50% of
• 59:05
  Speaker 1: the time, but he was okay with it, obviously, taking
• 59:08
  Speaker 1: two sacks on 30 passes. attempts in that scenario is
• 59:11
  Speaker 1: a win. Right tackle Titus Howard, though, gave up one
• 59:15
  Speaker 1: and a pretty high pressure rate, according to NextGenStats. He's
• 59:18
  Speaker 1: given up one in both games, surrendering a high pressure
• 59:20
  Speaker 1: rate in both.
• 59:22
  Speaker 25: Gotta be more stout right there if you're Titus Howard.
• 59:24
  Speaker 1: Panthers DBs allowed 55 yards to Drake London last week,
• 59:28
  Speaker 1: locked everybody else up. Seven different guys caught Watson passes
• 59:32
  Speaker 1: week two, only two finished with more than 30 yards.
• 59:35
  Speaker 1: Carolina corners, this Denzel Boston kid is for real. Scored again,
• 59:40
  Speaker 1: TD in each of their games.
• 59:42
  Speaker 2: Boston makes a bad miss on the spin move. He
• 59:44
  Speaker 2: can go.
• 59:45
  Speaker 1: Rookie with a career-high 95 yards versus the Bucs. Casey Concepcion,
• 59:50
  Speaker 1: 28 yards. Tight end Harold Fannin five catches, 54 yards.
• 59:55
  Speaker 21: Watson to his left. He's got Fannin at the 41-yard line.
• 59:59
  Speaker 1: Brown's defense enters with some confidence. They looked a lot
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 1: better week over week. After getting lit up by Trevor
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 1: Lawrence in the Jags offense, they held Baker Mayfield and
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 1: company in check. Held Mayfield to 182 yards, only 5.4
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 1: yards per attempt. A low 70s rate while picking him off.
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 1: Stepped up with the game on the line.
• 1:00:19
  Speaker 2: Fourth down and a go to the end zone.
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 25: Incomplete.
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 2: And that should do it for the Browns.
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 1: Held Tampa Bay to 19 points. One for four in
• 1:00:29
  Speaker 1: the red zone. Only five yards per play.
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 2: Throw to the end zone. Almost intercepted.
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 1: So they're hoping to carry over some of that mojo
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 1: into this week. It's not going to be easy facing
• 1:00:39
  Speaker 1: Bryce Young though. How's that sound keep pounding? Over 350 yards,
• 1:00:44
  Speaker 1: three TDs week one. Then he piles up 287 yards
• 1:00:48
  Speaker 1: and three more TDs week two. 115-plus rate. He's topped
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 1: 110 in each game. He's very much looking like H-I-M.
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 5: What a catch and a phenomenal throw.
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 1: In turn, Brown's D stacked against a Carolina O-face that's
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 1: gone for 27-plus points back-to-back games, 27 versus Atlanta.
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 5: Touchdown, Carolina!
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 1: Young took two sacks on 36 pass attempts versus Atlanta.
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 1: That's a ratio they can live with. He did, however,
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 1: face pressure 51% of the time, only blitzed 28% of
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 1: the time. NGS tagged left guard Damian Lewis with a
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 1: sack allowed, right tackle Monroe Freeling with one. He's allowed
• 1:01:30
  Speaker 1: one in each game.
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 2: They got home that time.
• 1:01:33
  Speaker 1: Pass rush Bryce tries to elude this week comes off
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 1: a three-sack outing. Browns only blitzing Mayfield 30% of his
• 1:01:40
  Speaker 1: passes still generated pressure over 40% of the time. Mason
• 1:01:45
  Speaker 1: Graham with his second sack in two games.
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 2: Mason Graham continues to evolve. He is a heck of
• 1:01:50
  Speaker 2: a talent.
• 1:01:51
  Speaker 1: Cleveland DBs gave up a 49-yard reception to Tez Johnson.
• 1:01:54
  Speaker 1: Cornerback Tyson Campbell pegged for allowing a team-high 70 yards.
• 1:01:59
  Speaker 1: But their secondary held Emeka Ibuka to 16 yards. Top
• 1:02:02
  Speaker 1: guy they wrangle with this week. Tedaroa McMillan comes off
• 1:02:06
  Speaker 1: his first 100-yard game of the year after starting the
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 1: year off with 75.
• 1:02:10
  Speaker 24: Jalen Coker had a monster week one, then hauled in
• 1:02:12
  Speaker 24: eight balls for 66 yards.
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 1: Xavier Leguette chipped in with 64 a week ago.
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 5: Throws deep downfield for Liguette.
• 1:02:29
  Speaker 2: Makes the catch!
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 9: Maybe the biggest catch of his career, Xavier Liguette.
• 1:02:37
  Speaker 1: And tied in Darren Waller two touchdowns a week ago.
• 1:02:41
  Speaker 4: Bryce is really feeling it now.
• 1:02:43
  Speaker 2: There's another strike. Touchdown, Waller.
• 1:02:47
  Speaker 1: Chuba Hubbard heads into week three off two solid outings,
• 1:02:50
  Speaker 1: 53 yards, 4-4 per carry versus Atlanta.
• 1:02:53
  Speaker 4: Hubbard sets sail for another first down.
• 1:02:55
  Speaker 1: He takes on a Cleveland defense that gave up 89
• 1:02:58
  Speaker 1: yards on over five a carry to Bucky Irving.
• 1:03:01
  Speaker 2: Irving's got daylights.
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 1: So Brown's hoping to clean some things up down low.
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 1: Speaking of cleaning things up, Carolina, nine flags last week.
• 1:03:10
  Speaker 6: Well, even when you have a blowout victory, coaches love
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 6: to say, we got some things we need to clean up.
• 1:03:15
  Speaker 4: I think we know what Canales has to clean up.
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 1: Neither of these squads wants to start off 0-3, but
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 1: one will. Indianapolis Colts still hoping to figure out a
• 1:03:26
  Speaker 1: way to keep teams off the scoreboard so often and
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 1: how to snap the nine-game losing streak they're on.
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 27: Houston, meantime, hits Week 3 hoping to find a way
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 27: to blend their Week 1-0 with their Week 2-D.
• 1:03:45
  Speaker 1: They'd come up with that mixture and they'd be cooking
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 1: with some serious gas.
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 8: Third and 11, they need the 34. Here comes Anderson,
• 1:03:53
  Speaker 8: he's got Burrow, held, spun, set!
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 1: Texans defense, feeling like itself again ahead of week three,
• 1:04:00
  Speaker 1: had trouble with Buffalo's offense but not Cincinnati's. Held them
• 1:04:04
  Speaker 1: to 20 points, just 4.5 yards per play, 5 for
• 1:04:07
  Speaker 1: 15 on third down, basically played to their expected levels
• 1:04:11
  Speaker 1: for the most part. what they expect again this.
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 4: Week, too.
• 1:04:15
  Speaker 1: The big battle on this side of the ball, their
• 1:04:25
  Speaker 1: front versus Indy's O-line, and specifically Will Anderson and Daniil
• 1:04:29
  Speaker 1: Hunter versus Indy's tackles. Anderson and Hunter with a sack
• 1:04:33
  Speaker 1: each of Joe Burrow, Houston rolls in off a five-bag game.
• 1:04:37
  Speaker 8: Colt's O-line, though, comes off a strong showing, too. Didn't
• 1:04:38
  Speaker 8: allow Daniel Jones to get dropped once on 31 pass attempts.
• 1:04:41
  Speaker 2: He was blitzed 39% of his.
• 1:04:42
  Speaker 1: Throws, faced pressure less than 30% of the time.
• 1:04:55
  Speaker 27: Great to put a spotlight on Nelson. Six-time All-Pro. Man,
• 1:04:59
  Speaker 27: as he delivered.
• 1:05:00
  Speaker 1: It was an ice cube kind of day for that
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 1: group because they also helped pave the way for Jonathan
• 1:05:05
  Speaker 1: Taylor to rip off some big runs. He scored twice,
• 1:05:08
  Speaker 1: 92 yards.
• 1:05:10
  Speaker 2: Second and three. Taylor.
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 5: Left.
• 1:05:13
  Speaker 2: End zone. Touchdown, Indianapolis.
• 1:05:16
  Speaker 1: Okay, he did grind a little. Only 3A to carry.
• 1:05:19
  Speaker 1: But still, no need for any AKs. Taylor now faces
• 1:05:22
  Speaker 1: a Texans front that held Chase Brown to four a run.
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 1: held Cincinnati to 85 rush yards, 3-7 per.
• 1:05:28
  Speaker 8: Brown, no place to go. Big time hits. All over
• 1:05:32
  Speaker 8: the joint.
• 1:05:32
  Speaker 1: Again, they were better on that front week over week.
• 1:05:35
  Speaker 1: Against the pass, not a lot of yards allowed to
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 1: Joe Shiesty. held him under 7 yards per attempt, but
• 1:05:41
  Speaker 1: not able to pick him off, a rating allowed over 100.
• 1:05:47
  Speaker 1: Gave up two TDs to Jamar Chase, cornered Derek Stingley
• 1:05:51
  Speaker 1: allowed 78 yards in one of the touchdowns, but it
• 1:05:54
  Speaker 1: took a Matrix-like catch to pull it off, it was crazy.
• 1:05:58
  Speaker 1: Now on to Indiana Jones, he threw a pick for
• 1:06:00
  Speaker 1: the second game in a row, but he rallied and
• 1:06:02
  Speaker 1: isn't coming off a terrible game. didn't have Alec Pierce
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 1: for part of it. He left hurt, but Jones with
• 1:06:08
  Speaker 1: some big throws he's building off of.
• 1:06:12
  Speaker 27: Jones retreats, got downs downfield. And the Colts get a
• 1:06:15
  Speaker 27: first down.
• 1:06:16
  Speaker 1: Taylor picked up 40 receiving yards in the passing game
• 1:06:19
  Speaker 1: last week as well. Tyler Warren had the TD, just
• 1:06:22
  Speaker 1: 21 yards. Keenan Allen only five yards. Laquan Treadwell with
• 1:06:27
  Speaker 1: the big 48-yarder in OT, 61 yards overall.
• 1:06:31
  Speaker 27: He's thrown for Treadwell, who's got it at the 20,
• 1:06:34
  Speaker 27: spins at the 16.
• 1:06:35
  Speaker 1: And Josh Downs led the team in targets, receptions, and yards,
• 1:06:39
  Speaker 1: 72-yard night.
• 1:06:41
  Speaker 2: He now becomes that guy for this offense.
• 1:06:44
  Speaker 1: Texans offense also missing a key wideout. Their top guy,
• 1:06:48
  Speaker 1: Nico Collins, missed last week altogether, so track his status
• 1:06:52
  Speaker 1: this week, too. C.J. Stroud piled up plenty of yards
• 1:06:55
  Speaker 1: without him, 353 of them, has started off 2026 with
• 1:07:00
  Speaker 1: back-to-back 270-plus yard games.
• 1:07:03
  Speaker 8: First and 10, going deep, and he's caught his receiver!
• 1:07:07
  Speaker 2: What a throw to Noel!
• 1:07:08
  Speaker 1: Now, he threw 55 times, ended the game with a
• 1:07:12
  Speaker 1: sub-80 rate, averaged less than 7 yards per attempt and
• 1:07:15
  Speaker 1: no touchdowns, offense needing a big Sean bounce back after
• 1:07:19
  Speaker 1: going 0-4 in the red zone, 5-17 on 3rd down,
• 1:07:23
  Speaker 1: 0-4 on fourth downs and fewer than five yards per play.
• 1:07:27
  Speaker 2: And they stop him! What a play!
• 1:07:29
  Speaker 8: Blew it up and Montgomery could not carve the necessary yards.
• 1:07:33
  Speaker 1: If you're a real one, you know how to bounce back.
• 1:07:36
  Speaker 1: And if Indy doesn't find a way to play better defense,
• 1:07:38
  Speaker 1: Stroud and company could do it. Colts defense gave up
• 1:07:41
  Speaker 1: 41 points to the Ravens, then 33 to Kansas City,
• 1:07:45
  Speaker 1: allowed over 500 yards of offense last week.
• 1:07:48
  Speaker 2: Mahomes, touchdown pass, number two on the night.
• 1:07:51
  Speaker 1: Stroud, looking at a secondary that made Patrick Mahomes look
• 1:07:54
  Speaker 1: like Patrick Mahomes again, gave up 382 yards to him.
• 1:07:59
  Speaker 1: On over eight yards per attempt, three touchdowns, didn't pick
• 1:08:02
  Speaker 1: him off, a 114 rate allowed, so back-to-back games giving
• 1:08:06
  Speaker 1: up 320-plus yards.
• 1:08:07
  Speaker 4: Thornton!
• 1:08:12
  Speaker 1: Colts secondary, cornerback Justin Wally gave up two TDs and
• 1:08:16
  Speaker 1: a team-high 105 yards, according to NGS. Both their inside
• 1:08:20
  Speaker 1: linebackers gave up 50-plus yards each, too. 101 yards and
• 1:08:25
  Speaker 1: a touchdown allowed to Travis Kelsey, and it was a
• 1:08:27
  Speaker 1: tight end who ate the most for Houston versus Cincinnati.
• 1:08:31
  Speaker 1: Dalton Schultz piling up 140 yards.
• 1:08:34
  Speaker 2: What a catch by Schultz!
• 1:08:36
  Speaker 12: Right up the seam, Schultz gets a hand up there
• 1:08:38
  Speaker 12: and he's able to bring it in.
• 1:08:40
  Speaker 1: Rest of Stroud's production spread out. Xavier Hutchinson, 37 yards.
• 1:08:45
  Speaker 1: Keyshawn Booty, 37. Foster Moreau, 34 yards. Jared Wayne, 33.
• 1:08:51
  Speaker 1: Stroud was sacked four times on his 55 pass attempts.
• 1:08:54
  Speaker 1: All four came in the fourth quarter. Left guard Keelan
• 1:08:57
  Speaker 1: Rutledge allowed one with a 16% press rate allowed. Right
• 1:09:01
  Speaker 1: tackle Trent Brown gave up one with a hefty 20%
• 1:09:04
  Speaker 1: pressure rate given up. And left tackle Ariante Ursary gave
• 1:09:08
  Speaker 1: up two sacks. Stroud didn't face many blitzes either, still
• 1:09:13
  Speaker 1: faced pressure over 40% of his throws. Colts didn't blitz
• 1:09:17
  Speaker 1: Mahomes much, didn't pressure him much, only two sacks on
• 1:09:21
  Speaker 1: 47 pass attempts, and they didn't play the run well either,
• 1:09:24
  Speaker 1: gave up 117 yards on 4-9 to carry to Kenneth Walker.
• 1:09:28
  Speaker 27: Bouncing it to the outside with Mahomes out in front
• 1:09:32
  Speaker 27: looking for somebody to block.
• 1:09:33
  Speaker 1: Something's got to give then, because Houston's rush attack only
• 1:09:36
  Speaker 1: produced 60 yards. Woody Marks and David Montgomery each finishing
• 1:09:40
  Speaker 1: with less than two yards a try.
• 1:09:42
  Speaker 8: And Marks almost had his helmet taken off by Miles Murphy.
• 1:09:47
  Speaker 1: Miami Dolphins at home for the first time this year,
• 1:09:50
  Speaker 1: still trying to win a game for the first time
• 1:09:52
  Speaker 1: this year, too. Yeah, you're a great player, man.
• 1:09:55
  Speaker 2: I grew up a big Minnesota fan. Oh, yeah, that's right.
• 1:09:57
  Speaker 7: That's right.
• 1:09:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you're a great player. You have a great career
• 1:09:59
  Speaker 2: at Tech, man. You're going to be a good player
• 1:10:00
  Speaker 2: in the league.
• 1:10:01
  Speaker 1: That won't be easy, though, as they take on the
• 1:10:03
  Speaker 1: 2-0 Chiefs who could be more dangerous than ever if
• 1:10:07
  Speaker 1: their Week 2 offense is going to be a thing
• 1:10:09
  Speaker 1: going forward.
• 1:10:10
  Speaker 27: Final play of Sunday, number two of the season, Butker
• 1:10:13
  Speaker 27: from 40 for the win!
• 1:10:16
  Speaker 2: Kansas City, 2-0!
• 1:10:19
  Speaker 1: Used to be that no one would give Patrick Mahomes
• 1:10:21
  Speaker 1: the ball back in overtime. Then a couple of down
• 1:10:24
  Speaker 1: years came along, an injury, so maybe he just isn't
• 1:10:27
  Speaker 1: the same. Well, he's strutting in off a 382-yard, 3-TD outing,
• 1:10:33
  Speaker 1: No interceptions, 1-14 rate game. Cue the little girl in
• 1:10:37
  Speaker 1: Poltergeist 2. He's back.
• 1:10:40
  Speaker 2: From the 13, Mahomes fires right. Kelsey! Touchdown!
• 1:10:46
  Speaker 1: But he's never been paired with a back like this.
• 1:10:49
  Speaker 1: Miami's defense has to be able to stop Kenneth Walker too,
• 1:10:53
  Speaker 1: and apparently he's still going. followed up his monster KC
• 1:10:57
  Speaker 1: debut with a 117-yard 4-9 per carry encore.
• 1:11:01
  Speaker 23: Even the Kansas City Chiefs talked about how much better
• 1:11:05
  Speaker 23: their defense got because of all the bounce-outs and bounce-arounds
• 1:11:09
  Speaker 23: that they had to deal with with Walker.
• 1:11:11
  Speaker 1: In turn, Finn's defense stacked against a KCO that's put
• 1:11:15
  Speaker 1: up 30-plus points back-to-back games to start the year, 33
• 1:11:19
  Speaker 1: versus Indianapolis, piling up over 500 yards.
• 1:11:24
  Speaker 2: Kelsey on the move.
• 1:11:26
  Speaker 16: Mahomes.
• 1:11:26
  Speaker 2: Touchdown pass.
• 1:11:28
  Speaker 27: Number two on the night to number one Xavier Worthy.
• 1:11:31
  Speaker 1: Okay, the Dolphins did at least play CMC well down low.
• 1:11:35
  Speaker 1: They got that going for them at least. Held McCaffrey
• 1:11:38
  Speaker 1: to 23 yards on 2.3 per carry last week.
• 1:11:42
  Speaker 21: Purdy turns McCaffrey to the goal line.
• 1:11:45
  Speaker 2: Stopped short.
• 1:11:46
  Speaker 1: But everything else stacks up as a mismatch. Gave up
• 1:11:50
  Speaker 1: 287 yards to Brock Purdy on a whopping 13 yards
• 1:11:54
  Speaker 1: per attempt. No interceptions, two TDs allowed for a fatty
• 1:11:59
  Speaker 1: 149 rate allowed. He threw 22 passes, completed 20 of them.
• 1:12:01
  Speaker 1: Here's Purdy.
• 1:12:07
  Speaker 2: With time, to the end zone, it's Kittle! All the
• 1:12:11
  Speaker 2: way back.
• 1:12:12
  Speaker 1: Pass rush going to show up. Zero sacks on Purdy's passes.
• 1:12:16
  Speaker 1: Gave up 35 points when the day was over. Let
• 1:12:19
  Speaker 1: the Niners convert five of seven third down tries and
• 1:12:23
  Speaker 1: all five of their red zone trips.
• 1:12:25
  Speaker 2: On third and three. Play action. Use check. Down the sideline.
• 1:12:29
  Speaker 2: Touchdown San Francisco.
• 1:12:32
  Speaker 1: 80 yards and a TD allowed to George Kittle. And
• 1:12:36
  Speaker 1: now they get Travis. Kelsey scored with over 100 yards,
• 1:12:40
  Speaker 1: showing the world the bling he ponied up for in
• 1:12:42
  Speaker 1: the process.
• 1:12:43
  Speaker 27: You think he's making payments on that? Lots of guys
• 1:12:46
  Speaker 27: come in with full bellies.
• 1:12:48
  Speaker 2: Xavier Worthy scored. Jalen Royals did, too. Walker caught six passes, too,
• 1:12:52
  Speaker 2: for 61 yards.
• 1:13:05
  Speaker 12: Turns.
• 1:13:05
  Speaker 2: Going to pivot. Walker. Open field. Inside the 40. Walker
• 1:13:10
  Speaker 2: to the 30. To the 25-yard line.
• 1:13:13
  Speaker 1: Rashe Rice got it going for the tune of 83 yards.
• 1:13:17
  Speaker 2: Pressure. Thrown in the middle. And complete to Rashe Rice.
• 1:13:22
  Speaker 1: And Tyquan Thornton with 86 yards. Huge clutch catch.
• 1:13:26
  Speaker 2: Kelsey into block.
• 1:13:27
  Speaker 27: Now releases Mahomes downfield towards Thornton.
• 1:13:30
  Speaker 2: Did he hold on? Yes, he did.
• 1:13:33
  Speaker 1: Now, Chiefs defense has some cleanup work to do. Colts
• 1:13:36
  Speaker 1: hung 30 points on him. They didn't sack Daniel Jones
• 1:13:40
  Speaker 1: once on 31 pass attempts, blitzed him 40% of the time,
• 1:13:44
  Speaker 1: yet only pressured him 27% of his throws.
• 1:13:47
  Speaker 27: Josh Downs inside the 35-yard line, and the Colts get
• 1:13:50
  Speaker 27: a first down.
• 1:13:51
  Speaker 1: Now, to a Miami offense that only mustered 13 points.
• 1:13:55
  Speaker 1: That DJ producer guy would rather not have his name
• 1:13:58
  Speaker 1: associated to that. That's 13-point efforts in both their games
• 1:14:01
  Speaker 1: so far.
• 1:14:02
  Speaker 21: Pressure up the middle as they tried to set up
• 1:14:04
  Speaker 21: the screen to A-Chan and nothing doing.
• 1:14:06
  Speaker 1: Malik Willis, connected on a 77-yard bomb at least, walked
• 1:14:10
  Speaker 1: out with a nice 103 rating.
• 1:14:12
  Speaker 2: Deep shot down the sideline. It's Ryan Miller.
• 1:14:15
  Speaker 14: He'll take it all the way for a Miami touchdown.
• 1:14:19
  Speaker 1: 77 yards on that play, 120 the rest of the game, though,
• 1:14:24
  Speaker 1: and he got planted four times on 23 pass attempts.
• 1:14:27
  Speaker 1: Their guards blamed for two, according to NGS. Right tackle
• 1:14:31
  Speaker 1: Austin Jackson gave up a 25 percent pressure rate. That's
• 1:14:35
  Speaker 1: crazy high.
• 1:14:35
  Speaker 10: I mean, that's your biggest threat is 97.
• 1:14:38
  Speaker 1: Malik Washington with 43 yards. Ryan Miller, the recipient of
• 1:14:42
  Speaker 1: that 77 yarder. Caleb Douglas, just 19 yards. Chiefs DBs
• 1:14:48
  Speaker 1: gave up 61 yards to Laquan Treadwell with help from
• 1:14:51
  Speaker 1: a very particular ref sitting in a booth. I don't know, man.
• 1:14:55
  Speaker 1: Also gave up 72 yards to Josh Downs. Corner LeJarius
• 1:14:59
  Speaker 1: Sneed tagged with 121 yards and a TD allowed by NGS.
• 1:15:04
  Speaker 1: Along the ground, Devon Achan still trying to find room
• 1:15:07
  Speaker 1: to do his thing. He did at least go for
• 1:15:10
  Speaker 1: 74 yards.
• 1:15:10
  Speaker 2: Nice jump cut.
• 1:15:11
  Speaker 21: Here's a talent that they have weaving around, breaking tackles.
• 1:15:15
  Speaker 21: Devon Achan with a good run.
• 1:15:18
  Speaker 1: But just 3-7 to carry hasn't cracked four yet in
• 1:15:21
  Speaker 1: his two games. Chiefs D he'll try to against gave
• 1:15:25
  Speaker 1: up 92 yards and two touchdowns to Jonathan Taylor, but
• 1:15:28
  Speaker 1: played him tougher as the game went along, held him
• 1:15:31
  Speaker 1: under four yards per carry when it was all over.
• 1:15:33
  Speaker 2: It's a run. Taylor tries to bounce it. Can't get
• 1:15:36
  Speaker 2: away from Nick Bolton.
• 1:15:39
  Speaker 1: Tampa Bay Buccaneers at home this week. Forget firing the cannons.
• 1:15:43
  Speaker 1: Time to hit the panic button before things get out
• 1:15:45
  Speaker 1: of hand.
• 1:15:46
  Speaker 2: 22 seconds left to play on fourth down. They go
• 1:15:48
  Speaker 2: to the end zone. Incomplete. And that should do it
• 1:15:52
  Speaker 2: for the Browns.
• 1:15:54
  Speaker 1: They're hoping to get their first win against a Minnesota
• 1:15:57
  Speaker 1: Vikings squad that started 2-0, equipped with a defense that
• 1:16:01
  Speaker 1: would blitz Baker's wife at the grocery store.
• 1:16:04
  Speaker 22: And Williams will get away momentarily, but that's all.
• 1:16:08
  Speaker 2: He ultimately gets finished off.
• 1:16:10
  Speaker 1: Bucks having to try and get right versus a Minnesota
• 1:16:13
  Speaker 1: defense that just smothered an offense that went for 59
• 1:16:17
  Speaker 1: points the week before, holding them to three.
• 1:16:20
  Speaker 2: Was it wet?
• 1:16:21
  Speaker 4: Sure.
• 1:16:21
  Speaker 1: Football gets played in the rain, last I checked. Held
• 1:16:24
  Speaker 1: the mighty Chicago offense to 5-for-15 on third down, 0-for-3
• 1:16:28
  Speaker 1: in the red zone, a lowly 4.2 yards per play.
• 1:16:32
  Speaker 22: Instead, they're all the way back at the 42, and
• 1:16:34
  Speaker 22: Williams tackled from behind as he throws it. Eric Wilson
• 1:16:38
  Speaker 22: getting home.
• 1:16:39
  Speaker 1: Mayfield staring at a DB group that held Caleb Williams
• 1:16:42
  Speaker 1: to 138 yards, no TDs allowed, picked him off for
• 1:16:47
  Speaker 1: a mid-50s rate.
• 1:16:48
  Speaker 22: Williams steps up, Williams lets it rip, and gets picked
• 1:16:53
  Speaker 22: off by Byron Murphy.
• 1:16:54
  Speaker 1: Baker, meantime, unable to crack 190 yards versus Cleveland, who
• 1:16:59
  Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence glided through, held to 5.4 per attempt, got
• 1:17:04
  Speaker 1: picked off for a low 70s rating.
• 1:17:06
  Speaker 2: Mayfield looking to throw again, throws to his left.
• 1:17:08
  Speaker 22: And it's intercepted at the 48-yard line. Red, the eyes
• 1:17:13
  Speaker 22: and the body of Mayfield beautifully.
• 1:17:15
  Speaker 1: Buck's offense only accounted for 20 week one points, then
• 1:17:19
  Speaker 1: only scratched out 19 last week, one for four in
• 1:17:23
  Speaker 1: the red zone.
• 1:17:23
  Speaker 21: Mayfield drops back to pass. Mayfield toward the goal line.
• 1:17:27
  Speaker 2: Incompletes. It was short.
• 1:17:29
  Speaker 1: And here's the big one. Baker took three sacks on
• 1:17:32
  Speaker 1: 34 pass attempts. Guard Ben Bredesen gave up another sack.
• 1:17:36
  Speaker 1: That's two and two games for him. Mayfield faced a 42%
• 1:17:40
  Speaker 1: pressure rate.
• 1:17:41
  Speaker 22: Trouble's coming, and Mayfield is going down.
• 1:17:45
  Speaker 1: He only faced a 30% blitz rate versus Cleveland, and here,
• 1:17:49
  Speaker 1: at least so far, is the critical stat if you're
• 1:17:52
  Speaker 1: a Bucs fan. He's 11 for 12 versus the Blitz
• 1:17:55
  Speaker 1: so far, a 125 rating, his one TD last week
• 1:17:59
  Speaker 1: against the Blitz.
• 1:18:00
  Speaker 17: And Baker Mayfield again, I mean, he's... Houdini at times
• 1:18:09
  Speaker 17: with the way that he's able to make plays.
• 1:18:11
  Speaker 1: This week, it's not so much when will he get blitzed,
• 1:18:14
  Speaker 1: but when won't he? Brian Flores would send five plus
• 1:18:18
  Speaker 1: after your grandma. He doesn't care. 78% week one, 79%
• 1:18:21
  Speaker 1: week two. It's an absurd rate to send extra heat.
• 1:18:27
  Speaker 1: It led to four sacks of Caleb and a pressure
• 1:18:30
  Speaker 1: rate close to 50. It means Minnesota's DBs have to
• 1:18:39
  Speaker 1: handle their business. They did last week. Most yards they
• 1:18:43
  Speaker 1: gave up was to running back DeAndre Swift. No bears
• 1:18:46
  Speaker 1: wideout or tight end with 45 yards. Now they do
• 1:18:50
  Speaker 1: business with Emeka Ibuka, who wobbles in off a 16-yard game.
• 1:18:54
  Speaker 1: As you saw, he at least scored. Tight end Cade
• 1:18:57
  Speaker 1: Otten had 38 yards versus Cleveland. Chris Godwin with 46. Well,
• 1:19:01
  Speaker 1: we knew it was only going to be a matter
• 1:19:03
  Speaker 1: of time before.
• 1:19:05
  Speaker 25: Chris Godwin got involved into this passing game. And that time,
• 1:19:08
  Speaker 25: Chris Godwin just wins with speed.
• 1:19:10
  Speaker 1: And Tez Johnson hauled in a 49-yard pass to lead
• 1:19:14
  Speaker 1: the way.
• 1:19:14
  Speaker 2: Mayfield slipped. He still makes the throw to Johnson. He
• 1:19:17
  Speaker 2: got it this time.
• 1:19:19
  Speaker 1: Vikings D mixed bag versus the run week two. Did
• 1:19:22
  Speaker 1: give up 47 yards on 4-7 to carry to Kyle Menungai,
• 1:19:26
  Speaker 1: but held DeAndre Swift to 2-8 per carry and knocked
• 1:19:29
  Speaker 1: the ball out of his hands at the goal line.
• 1:19:38
  Speaker 1: Now they get Bucky Irving, who ripped off a 38-yarder
• 1:19:41
  Speaker 1: versus Cleveland, went for 89 yards on 5-2 a pop
• 1:19:45
  Speaker 1: as a result. You're not going to win too many
• 1:19:52
  Speaker 1: games 9-3, of course. Vikings offense not able to carry
• 1:19:56
  Speaker 1: over the momentum of their second half versus Green Bay.
• 1:19:59
  Speaker 1: Carson Wentz only threw for 143 yards versus the Bears.
• 1:20:03
  Speaker 1: Offense fewer than five yards per play. Only three for
• 1:20:06
  Speaker 1: 13 on third down. Only one red zone trip and
• 1:20:09
  Speaker 1: clearly didn't finish that one off. They hope and expect
• 1:20:15
  Speaker 1: to have Kyler Murray back for this game. He'll see
• 1:20:18
  Speaker 1: what he can do for a full game versus a
• 1:20:20
  Speaker 1: Tampa defense that gave up 23 points to Cleveland. That's
• 1:20:24
  Speaker 1: kind of meh. They stopped him on two of their
• 1:20:26
  Speaker 1: three red zone trips, held him to five for 13
• 1:20:29
  Speaker 1: on third down. Murray not looking at a rattled defense,
• 1:20:32
  Speaker 1: per se.
• 1:20:33
  Speaker 2: Watson dancing in the pocket. He's ripped down.
• 1:20:36
  Speaker 22: Sacked at the 21-yard line.
• 1:20:38
  Speaker 1: But the secondary he gets, hoping to play the pass better,
• 1:20:41
  Speaker 1: gave up 238 yards to Deshaun Watson on 26 of
• 1:20:45
  Speaker 1: 30 passing.
• 1:20:47
  Speaker 10: Two TDs allowed, rate.
• 1:20:48
  Speaker 1: Allowed over 120. did not come up big when the
• 1:20:51
  Speaker 1: game was on the line. Murray also has to be
• 1:20:59
  Speaker 1: ready for the blitz. Buccaneers sent five plus 50% of
• 1:21:03
  Speaker 1: the time, but only came up with two sacks on
• 1:21:05
  Speaker 1: Watson's 30 pass attempts and only pressured him 36% of
• 1:21:08
  Speaker 1: the time. didn't really tilt things their way. Wentz got
• 1:21:13
  Speaker 1: blitzed 50% of the time too, took three sacks. Right
• 1:21:16
  Speaker 1: guard Will Fries gave up a sack and a high
• 1:21:18
  Speaker 1: pressure rate according to NextGenStats. Right tackle Brian O'Neal also
• 1:21:23
  Speaker 1: gave up a sack. Wentz only threw 20 times.
• 1:21:25
  Speaker 22: There's a flag down, and Wentz is down as Odenbo
• 1:21:29
  Speaker 22: gets him.
• 1:21:30
  Speaker 1: Tampa's secondary gave up 95 yards and a TD to
• 1:21:33
  Speaker 1: Denzel Boston. Now in comes Justin Jefferson, who finished with
• 1:21:37
  Speaker 1: 55 yards versus the Bears.
• 1:21:39
  Speaker 22: Justin Jefferson makes the adjustment and the catch.
• 1:21:43
  Speaker 1: He was the only Viking with more than 30 yards,
• 1:21:45
  Speaker 1: TJ Hawkinson, 29, Jordan Addison, 21. Aaron Jones is the
• 1:21:50
  Speaker 1: Vike with the most momentum, ran for 105 yards on
• 1:21:54
  Speaker 1: 4-6 per.
• 1:21:55
  Speaker 19: And just great vision here by Aaron Jones.
• 1:21:58
  Speaker 1: We'll see if Jordan Mason is healthy enough to go
• 1:22:00
  Speaker 1: this week. Tampa did not have trouble with Cleveland's backs,
• 1:22:03
  Speaker 1: held Quinshawn Judkins to 1-8 a carry.
• 1:22:06
  Speaker 25: They're playing to the strength of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers
• 1:22:08
  Speaker 25: right there.
• 1:22:10
  Speaker 1: Houdat's turn to hit the strip, and be wary, Vegas.
• 1:22:13
  Speaker 1: These dudes are the kind that don't bluff. They keep
• 1:22:16
  Speaker 1: going all in with their chips when it matters most.
• 1:22:19
  Speaker 24: Tyler Shuck brought the Saints back. 71,000 erupts in displeasure.
• 1:22:25
  Speaker 1: Look, I get the Baltimore point of view, but I
• 1:22:27
  Speaker 1: get the NOLA side, too. Saints would have deserved four
• 1:22:30
  Speaker 1: more chances if the first mistake isn't made. So on
• 1:22:33
  Speaker 1: they march to take on, get this, the 2-0 Raiders,
• 1:22:38
  Speaker 1: whose fan base is on tilt right now, a shot
• 1:22:41
  Speaker 1: at a 3-0 start, which they haven't pulled since Chucky's
• 1:22:44
  Speaker 1: second tour.
• 1:22:45
  Speaker 11: And the party is on in SoFi for the Raider fans.
• 1:22:49
  Speaker 1: Maybe beating Miami was kind of expected, but taking out
• 1:22:52
  Speaker 1: the Chargers by 12 has everybody's attention, and they did
• 1:22:56
  Speaker 1: it without Brock Bowers, and he's back this week. Even
• 1:22:59
  Speaker 1: without him, Kirko Chains grooves in off a 250-plus yard,
• 1:23:04
  Speaker 1: 3 TD game over 8.5 yards per attempt, a 110-plus rate.
• 1:23:09
  Speaker 1: He's put up back-to-back 3 TD games to start.
• 1:23:12
  Speaker 2: Cousins to the end zone, wide open, touchdown!
• 1:23:16
  Speaker 1: Raiders' offense was abysmal in 2025. So starting off 2026
• 1:23:20
  Speaker 1: with 27 points and then 24 is huge.
• 1:23:25
  Speaker 2: Wow.
• 1:23:25
  Speaker 11: Kirk Cousins got hit hard, but a 42 yard pickup.
• 1:23:30
  Speaker 1: Four for 14 on third down. So they have some
• 1:23:33
  Speaker 1: work to do still. Chargers D is supposed to be tough.
• 1:23:36
  Speaker 1: Saints defense represents another good test then. because they just
• 1:23:40
  Speaker 1: got done holding the Lamar King Ravens offense to 17 points,
• 1:23:45
  Speaker 1: only let them cross the 20 twice. Cousins mixing it
• 1:23:53
  Speaker 1: up with a secondary that stopped Jackson when it mattered most,
• 1:23:56
  Speaker 1: gave up a TD in 235 yards, but came up
• 1:23:59
  Speaker 1: with a big pick when the game was on the line.
• 1:24:02
  Speaker 24: Jackson's pass picked off and the Saints turn out the
• 1:24:06
  Speaker 24: lights on the Ravens.
• 1:24:08
  Speaker 1: They didn't have to deal with Zay Flowers, gave up
• 1:24:10
  Speaker 1: 88 yards in the TD to Rashad Bateman. Cornerback Kool-Aid
• 1:24:14
  Speaker 1: McKinstry gave up the touchdown in 58 of those yards
• 1:24:17
  Speaker 1: according to NextGenStats. Vegas only had one pass catcher finish
• 1:24:20
  Speaker 1: with more than 30 yards versus L.A., Trey Tucker, who
• 1:24:23
  Speaker 1: went for 119 and a TD.
• 1:24:25
  Speaker 2: He's going to take a shot. Touchdown! Cousins to Tucker!
• 1:24:30
  Speaker 1: But how about tight end Cody White, scored twice, just
• 1:24:34
  Speaker 1: 24 yards.
• 1:24:35
  Speaker 11: Cousins throwing end zone, and it is caught by Cody White!
• 1:24:41
  Speaker 1: Cousins took a couple of sacks on 29 pass attempts.
• 1:24:44
  Speaker 1: They can live with that ratio. Right tackle DJ Glaze
• 1:24:47
  Speaker 1: tagged with one and a half sacks allowed a week ago.
• 1:24:49
  Speaker 13: Saints pass rush bagged up Lamar three times, blitzed him
• 1:24:51
  Speaker 13: over 40% of the time, pressured him over 40% of
• 1:24:52
  Speaker 13: his throws.
• 1:24:53
  Speaker 2: Chase Young, one and a half sacks.
• 1:25:04
  Speaker 1: He is now living up to his draft pick. He
• 1:25:06
  Speaker 1: is a beast.
• 1:25:08
  Speaker 24: Play action from Jackson. Here they come. Chase Young buries him.
• 1:25:12
  Speaker 1: Along the ground, they gave up a TD to Derrick Henry.
• 1:25:15
  Speaker 1: 68 yards on 4-3 a run. 34 yards to Jackson
• 1:25:19
  Speaker 1: on four runs. If you had told them ahead of
• 1:25:21
  Speaker 1: the game they could hold those two to 102 yards,
• 1:25:24
  Speaker 1: I think they would have happily accepted it.
• 1:25:26
  Speaker 24: Funky little formation here on second down. New Orleans front
• 1:25:29
  Speaker 24: not fooled.
• 1:25:30
  Speaker 1: Ashton Gentee up next comes in off a dud, held
• 1:25:34
  Speaker 1: to 48 yards on just 2.3 per carry.
• 1:25:36
  Speaker 5: Right in the middle of.
• 1:25:37
  Speaker 13: Your screen, kind of swims somebody and gets Gentee back
• 1:25:40
  Speaker 13: behind the line of scrimmage there.
• 1:25:42
  Speaker 1: As excited as the black hole is about their offense,
• 1:25:45
  Speaker 1: they're equally jacked over their defensive play, created a safety,
• 1:25:49
  Speaker 1: held L.A. to 14 points, 5 for 14 on 3rd down.
• 1:25:53
  Speaker 1: have held both their opponents under 15 points. Again, huge
• 1:25:57
  Speaker 1: improvement year over year.
• 1:25:59
  Speaker 2: There is a flag down in the end zone.
• 1:26:01
  Speaker 11: Max Crosby is saying he was held, and this should
• 1:26:03
  Speaker 11: be a safety.
• 1:26:04
  Speaker 1: The secondary, Tyler Shuck, takes on, picked off Justin Herbert twice.
• 1:26:09
  Speaker 1: Hezekiah masses with both. held him under 200 yards.
• 1:26:13
  Speaker 2: Herbert with time, fires, picked off! Masses, does it again!
• 1:26:18
  Speaker 1: Shuck's confidence is getting stronger by the week though, 250
• 1:26:21
  Speaker 1: plus yards for the second week in a row. TD,
• 1:26:24
  Speaker 1: no picks last week, drove them down to win it,
• 1:26:27
  Speaker 1: making several clutch throws.
• 1:26:29
  Speaker 2: On a second and four. There it is. Shucks pass.
• 1:26:31
  Speaker 1: Olave.
• 1:26:32
  Speaker 2: And here comes New Orleans.
• 1:26:34
  Speaker 1: Saints offense has put up 24-plus in each game. 24
• 1:26:38
  Speaker 1: versus Baltimore. Eight for 15 on third down. No turnovers.
• 1:26:42
  Speaker 24: Shuck on third and six. Ravens bring five completion. First down.
• 1:26:47
  Speaker 1: Now, 4.7 yards per play. That needs freshening up. Their
• 1:26:50
  Speaker 1: rush attack, pretty bad versus Baltimore. As Travis Achan only
• 1:26:54
  Speaker 1: ran eight times for 25 yards, Alvin Kamara made his
• 1:26:58
  Speaker 1: 2026 debut, didn't matter. Team finished with just 65 yards
• 1:27:02
  Speaker 1: on the ground.
• 1:27:03
  Speaker 2: There's a fumble.
• 1:27:04
  Speaker 24: Achan just falls on the football. They're going to lose
• 1:27:06
  Speaker 24: heavy yardage.
• 1:27:07
  Speaker 1: Their line also let Shuck get planted three times. NGS
• 1:27:11
  Speaker 1: blamed right tackle Talisi Fuaga for two. and they lost
• 1:27:15
  Speaker 1: their starting left tackle, Kelvin Banks, to an injury.
• 1:27:18
  Speaker 24: A couple of fakes, pocket muddies, Chuck Secht coming with
• 1:27:22
  Speaker 24: some serious heat.
• 1:27:23
  Speaker 1: Here comes Mad Max and company, though Crosby didn't get
• 1:27:26
  Speaker 1: the quarterback last week. Malcolm Kuntz did, though, one and
• 1:27:29
  Speaker 1: a half times. Vegas nabbed Herbert three times, and how
• 1:27:32
  Speaker 1: about a 54.8 pressure rate while only blitzing 32% of
• 1:27:37
  Speaker 1: the time?
• 1:27:38
  Speaker 11: Herbert is brought down, and Herbert.
• 1:27:41
  Speaker 2: Ran out of time.
• 1:27:43
  Speaker 1: When the ball is in the air, Shuck loves him
• 1:27:45
  Speaker 1: some Olave. Chris, with 86 yards and a TD, went
• 1:27:49
  Speaker 1: for 182 week one. Their chemistry looking Jesse Pinkman, Walter White-esque.
• 1:27:55
  Speaker 2: Shuck on a third and five. It's caught. Boy, just
• 1:27:58
  Speaker 2: when they needed a big play, it's Olave.
• 1:28:00
  Speaker 1: Not that kind of chemistry, obviously. Don't need to call
• 1:28:03
  Speaker 1: the cops on them. Shuck to Juwan Johnson also keeps clicking.
• 1:28:06
  Speaker 1: He connected with him for 66 yards.
• 1:28:09
  Speaker 24: Johnson on the underneath. Johnson, he's got a first down!
• 1:28:13
  Speaker 1: And Devon Vele, 64 yards. All three of those pass
• 1:28:16
  Speaker 1: catchers with good starts to their seasons.
• 1:28:19
  Speaker 24: Boy, every time they needed a big play last week,
• 1:28:22
  Speaker 24: it seemed like it was Vele.
• 1:28:23
  Speaker 1: Raiders defenders gave up a 53-yard pass to Trey Harris,
• 1:28:27
  Speaker 1: held all their other guys under 40 yards. Against the run...
• 1:28:31
  Speaker 1: 4.1 a carry to a Marion Hampton that touched down
• 1:28:34
  Speaker 1: 94 yards, but also stole the ball from him once, too.
• 1:28:38
  Speaker 11: Hampton up the middle, he lost the football! Right to
• 1:28:41
  Speaker 11: Jeremy Chin!
• 1:28:44
  Speaker 1: Washington at home week three, feeling the same way Tom
• 1:28:47
  Speaker 1: Brady did calling their game, which is to say they
• 1:28:50
  Speaker 1: felt like Ralphie in Christmas Story.
• 1:28:53
  Speaker 2: Oh, fudge.
• 1:28:55
  Speaker 26: Daniels falls in trouble, just kind of throws it out there,
• 1:28:58
  Speaker 26: and it's incomplete!
• 1:29:00
  Speaker 4: Oh, s * * *.
• 1:29:01
  Speaker 1: Tom spent all Sunday night with Lifebuoy soap in his mouth,
• 1:29:05
  Speaker 1: don't worry. Commanders going forth without JD5 again, and having
• 1:29:09
  Speaker 1: to do so against the reigning champs, who despite a
• 1:29:12
  Speaker 1: couple of personnel changes... sure look exactly like they did
• 1:29:15
  Speaker 1: when they won it all.
• 1:29:16
  Speaker 21: Stifling D, two guys to tote the rock, loads of JSN.
• 1:29:27
  Speaker 1: Wasn't that the formula in 2025? Sure, maybe Sam Darnold
• 1:29:31
  Speaker 1: comes back, but if he doesn't, does it matter? The
• 1:29:33
  Speaker 1: way Drew Locke is playing, every QB who's washed out
• 1:29:37
  Speaker 1: elsewhere is going to beg to sign in Seattle. 139
• 1:29:39
  Speaker 1: rate versus Arizona, 235 yards on nine per attempt, three TDs,
• 1:29:41
  Speaker 1: no picks. Sam's like, hey, butt feels fine, man. Let
• 1:29:49
  Speaker 1: me get back out there before this gets out of hand.
• 1:29:52
  Speaker 5: Is Drew Locke playing with confidence right now?
• 1:29:54
  Speaker 13: Does Drew Locke look like a starting quarterback right now?
• 1:29:57
  Speaker 2: Darn right he does.
• 1:29:59
  Speaker 1: Locke is no dummy. All three of his TD passes
• 1:30:01
  Speaker 1: went to Jackson, Smith, and Jigba. Only Seahawk with more
• 1:30:05
  Speaker 1: than 40 yards for the second week in a row,
• 1:30:07
  Speaker 1: 155 yards last week. So, C-Note plus change second week
• 1:30:12
  Speaker 1: in a row.
• 1:30:13
  Speaker 22: Jackson, Smith, and Jigma will take it down the sideline,
• 1:30:17
  Speaker 22: and that is a Seahawk touchdown.
• 1:30:19
  Speaker 1: Rashid Shaheed, 35 yards. Cooper Cupp, 20. A.J. Barner, 8.
• 1:30:24
  Speaker 1: Didn't matter. Didn't need him. as Seattle hung 31 points
• 1:30:28
  Speaker 1: on the Cardinals. Nice bump after they only managed 13
• 1:30:31
  Speaker 1: week one.
• 1:30:32
  Speaker 2: Well, the end zone lock.
• 1:30:33
  Speaker 22: It's another touchdown. He's got three today.
• 1:30:36
  Speaker 1: Now they try and keep it humming versus a Washington
• 1:30:39
  Speaker 1: defense that gave up 37 points to Dallas last week.
• 1:30:42
  Speaker 1: Let them convert seven of 11 third downs and three
• 1:30:45
  Speaker 1: of four red zone trips.
• 1:30:47
  Speaker 2: Throw, CeeDee Lamb, touchdown Dallas.
• 1:30:51
  Speaker 1: JSN eyeing a secondary that gave up 153 yards and
• 1:30:55
  Speaker 1: two TDs to CeeDee Lamb, Washington's DBs trying to rebound
• 1:31:00
  Speaker 1: after giving up 279 yards and four touchdowns to Dak
• 1:31:03
  Speaker 1: Prescott on 26 of 31 passing. A 143 rate allowed,
• 1:31:09
  Speaker 1: safety Jeremy Reeves tagged with a touchdown allowed by NextGenStats
• 1:31:13
  Speaker 1: corner Mike Sanristill giving up two. Lock threw 26 times,
• 1:31:24
  Speaker 1: only took one sack, faced pressure less than 30% of
• 1:31:27
  Speaker 1: the time, didn't face a lot of blitzing. Washington, on
• 1:31:30
  Speaker 1: the other hand, sent five plus over 40% of the time,
• 1:31:34
  Speaker 1: pressured Dak over 40%, got to him twice, Caleb on
• 1:31:38
  Speaker 1: chase on, and Javon Kinlaw the sack man.
• 1:31:40
  Speaker 26: Play action pass, pressure though on Prescott. He is sacked!
• 1:31:44
  Speaker 26: Javon Kinlaw.
• 1:31:46
  Speaker 1: Commander's front does at least hit week three off a
• 1:31:48
  Speaker 1: good showing versus the run, held Javonte Williams to 2-5
• 1:31:52
  Speaker 1: a carry, only 30 yards.
• 1:31:54
  Speaker 2: Here's the run, but hit right away as Williams breaks free,
• 1:31:57
  Speaker 2: but swarmed.
• 1:31:58
  Speaker 1: They get Emmanuel Wilson and hopefully Jadarian Price next. He
• 1:32:02
  Speaker 1: suffered an injury. Before that, he chipped in 52 rush yards.
• 1:32:06
  Speaker 22: Pitch to Price, and he's got room. And a hard hit,
• 1:32:10
  Speaker 22: but he keeps going. Price lowering that shoulder.
• 1:32:12
  Speaker 4: That's the boom.
• 1:32:13
  Speaker 1: Wilson went for 92 yards on 4-4 a pop, his
• 1:32:16
  Speaker 1: best game as a Hawk so far.
• 1:32:18
  Speaker 21: It's Emmanuel Wilson bouncing outside. He'll get a first down.
• 1:32:22
  Speaker 21: He'll get more than that.
• 1:32:23
  Speaker 1: Now to the dark side. Hasn't let much light in
• 1:32:26
  Speaker 1: two games to start the year. Held New England to
• 1:32:29
  Speaker 1: 10 points, then followed it by keeping Arizona to 7.
• 1:32:32
  Speaker 1: Three for 12 on third down, and check this out.
• 1:32:36
  Speaker 1: 151 total yards, 3.2 yards per play. Those are absurd figures.
• 1:32:42
  Speaker 21: Third down, Brissette knocked away at almost intercepted.
• 1:32:47
  Speaker 1: Marcus Mariota gets a secondary that got Nickham and Worry back,
• 1:32:51
  Speaker 1: staring at a Hawks DB group that followed their 3-INT
• 1:32:54
  Speaker 1: game versus Drake May by holding Jacoby Brissette to 95
• 1:32:58
  Speaker 1: yards on 3-4 per attempt. Picked him off. Are they
• 1:33:02
  Speaker 1: even darker than last year?
• 1:33:03
  Speaker 21: For pressure, percentage floating one. And nobody there except a
• 1:33:07
  Speaker 21: Seahawk defender.
• 1:33:08
  Speaker 1: The Mariota Daniels commander's offense only came up with 20
• 1:33:12
  Speaker 1: points versus Dallas. Haven't hit 24 yet this season.
• 1:33:15
  Speaker 2: Mariota now back to pass. Oh, look out. Barham with
• 1:33:18
  Speaker 2: a big hit. Ball is loose.
• 1:33:20
  Speaker 1: Apparently Madagascar Marty is a Cowboys fan. Or maybe Zebras
• 1:33:24
  Speaker 1: can't see TV screens the same way dogs can't? I
• 1:33:27
  Speaker 1: don't know how else to explain it though.
• 1:33:29
  Speaker 12: But on we go.
• 1:33:30
  Speaker 21: Mariota did play well off the bench, throwing for a
• 1:33:32
  Speaker 21: touchdown without being picked off.
• 1:33:34
  Speaker 2: 11 for 16 for a plus 100 rate.
• 1:33:50
  Speaker 1: He wasn't sacked, and neither was Daniels. On 35 pass attempts, too,
• 1:33:55
  Speaker 1: would be a feat to pull that off versus Seattle's front.
• 1:33:57
  Speaker 1: They don't blitz much, still pressured Brissett over 40% of
• 1:34:01
  Speaker 1: his throws. Jaron Reed, Leonard Williams made it home to
• 1:34:04
  Speaker 1: see mom last week. Big Cat hoping to visit three
• 1:34:07
  Speaker 1: straight weeks after starting his year with a sack in
• 1:34:10
  Speaker 1: each game.
• 1:34:10
  Speaker 21: The Seattle defense on third down. Brissette, and he'll go down.
• 1:34:15
  Speaker 1: Hawks secondary gave up a TD and 41 yards to
• 1:34:18
  Speaker 1: Trey McBride. Nobody else hit 20 yards against them. Now
• 1:34:22
  Speaker 1: they get in the rectangle with Antonio Williams, 24 yards
• 1:34:25
  Speaker 1: versus Dallas. Stephon Diggs, 47 yards, both the touchdowns. he's
• 1:34:30
  Speaker 1: scored in both their games.
• 1:34:32
  Speaker 26: They will throw it here, and they'll throw it on
• 1:34:34
  Speaker 26: in for the touchdown, Stephon Diggs.
• 1:34:36
  Speaker 1: And Terry McLaurin, who led them with 50 yards, could
• 1:34:39
  Speaker 1: have had more save an off-target throw.
• 1:34:42
  Speaker 2: That's McLaurin who breaks the tackle. Terry McLaurin with a
• 1:34:45
  Speaker 2: great move.
• 1:34:46
  Speaker 1: Rashad White, with 40 receiving yards, ran for 43-2 on
• 1:34:51
  Speaker 1: a nice 6-1 run.
• 1:34:52
  Speaker 26: White again, get a big hole for Rashad White, who
• 1:34:56
  Speaker 26: burst his way inside the 15.
• 1:34:58
  Speaker 1: Jacory Kroski-Merritt chipped in 43 yards last week, held to
• 1:35:02
  Speaker 1: 3-6 a carry though. Okay, now this matchup feels more
• 1:35:06
  Speaker 1: like we expected. Seems the right fit for the Sunday
• 1:35:09
  Speaker 1: night football game.
• 1:35:10
  Speaker 16: L.A.
• 1:35:10
  Speaker 1: Rams coming off their first win, armed with 99 on
• 1:35:14
  Speaker 1: defense and an offense that's more in sync.
• 1:35:17
  Speaker 2: Backpedaling, what a catch! Touchdown, Devontae Adams!
• 1:35:21
  Speaker 1: Taking on a Denver Broncos squad that's also coming off
• 1:35:25
  Speaker 1: a dub and whose defense is back to looking like
• 1:35:27
  Speaker 1: the brick wall we were expecting them to look like.
• 1:35:31
  Speaker 18: Launches, incomplete, and Denver's defense has held.
• 1:35:36
  Speaker 1: Orange's defense back to crushing week two, an early statement
• 1:35:40
  Speaker 1: that they are indeed that D, if you will, against
• 1:35:43
  Speaker 1: a Jags team that had cruised to bushels of points
• 1:35:45
  Speaker 1: the week before, holding Jacksonville to 13 points, held them
• 1:35:49
  Speaker 1: to fewer than five yards per play, and just five
• 1:35:52
  Speaker 1: for 12 on third down.
• 1:35:53
  Speaker 5: Lawrence is going to keep it himself. Lawrence trying to
• 1:35:56
  Speaker 5: get to the outside, and.
• 1:35:57
  Speaker 2: He's cut down.
• 1:35:58
  Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford, drawing a secondary that just faced Trevor Lawrence,
• 1:36:02
  Speaker 1: who had thrown four Week 1 touchdowns, held him without
• 1:36:06
  Speaker 1: any while picking him off, kept him to fewer than
• 1:36:08
  Speaker 1: 200 yards.
• 1:36:10
  Speaker 18: Lawrence slings it, intercepted! Riley Moss steps in front of Washington.
• 1:36:15
  Speaker 1: Now they square off with Stafford, who hits Week 3
• 1:36:18
  Speaker 1: feeling spry. Didn't have Pukanakua? No problem. 327 yards, four TDs.
• 1:36:22
  Speaker 1: 10 and a half yards per attempt a 130 plus rate.
• 1:36:28
  Speaker 19: Good protection Stafford end zone Kyron Williams touchdown and they're
• 1:36:33
  Speaker 19: starting to look like the Rams again.
• 1:36:35
  Speaker 1: In turn LA's offense rumbles east off a 28 point
• 1:36:38
  Speaker 1: night a gaudy eight yards per play perfect three for
• 1:36:42
  Speaker 1: three in the red zone point being we have a
• 1:36:44
  Speaker 1: hot d getting in the ring with.
• 1:36:46
  Speaker 19: A hot o doing a great job and Matthew Stafford
• 1:36:49
  Speaker 19: just puts that in a perfect spot.
• 1:36:52
  Speaker 1: Stafford threw 31 times, only sacked once. He faced pressure 15%
• 1:36:57
  Speaker 1: of his attempts. That's about as low as it gets.
• 1:37:00
  Speaker 19: Good pass protection and the coverage broke down. That is
• 1:37:03
  Speaker 19: good for 64 yards.
• 1:37:05
  Speaker 1: Denver's pass rush, of course, key to their good defensive
• 1:37:08
  Speaker 1: showing typically. They put Lawrence down twice on 29 pass attempts,
• 1:37:12
  Speaker 1: but just as importantly, pressured him 45% of the time.
• 1:37:16
  Speaker 1: and weren't blitz crazy like they can be sometimes.
• 1:37:19
  Speaker 5: Lawrence, pocket, collapsing, and he's brought down.
• 1:37:24
  Speaker 1: Broncos gave up 98 yards to Parker Washington, the only
• 1:37:28
  Speaker 1: Jag to give them any kind of trouble. If Nakua plays,
• 1:37:31
  Speaker 1: they face double trouble, because Devontae Adams reminded everybody he's
• 1:37:35
  Speaker 1: just as much a one... as he's always been if
• 1:37:38
  Speaker 1: he gets all the looks. Two touchdowns, 195 yards on
• 1:37:43
  Speaker 1: eight catches. They always cut away to Taylor for Travis.
• 1:37:46
  Speaker 1: I think Tay's Taco Bell worker should get equal face
• 1:37:49
  Speaker 1: time after he scores.
• 1:37:50
  Speaker 2: Adams. He's got it! Touchdown Rams!
• 1:37:55
  Speaker 1: Only other Ram with more than 20 yards week two,
• 1:37:58
  Speaker 1: tight end Terrence Ferguson, who also scored, finished with 54
• 1:38:02
  Speaker 1: yards too.
• 1:38:03
  Speaker 2: Stafford finds his man, touchdown Ferguson.
• 1:38:07
  Speaker 1: And then there's their rush attack. That duo of theirs
• 1:38:10
  Speaker 1: also enters this one feeling themselves. Each guy with 12 runs,
• 1:38:14
  Speaker 1: Kyron Williams hit at 7-1 a carry, 85 yards.
• 1:38:18
  Speaker 19: And this Rams offense can gobble up yards in bunches.
• 1:38:23
  Speaker 1: Blake Corum went for 79 yards on 6'6 per.
• 1:38:27
  Speaker 2: Get the blitz, and they hand to Corum. First down Rams.
• 1:38:31
  Speaker 1: Those two get a front. They gave up a touchdown
• 1:38:33
  Speaker 1: in 65 yards to Bashawl Tootin. Five a carry. So
• 1:38:37
  Speaker 1: it's the one semi-blind spot that defense is looking to
• 1:38:40
  Speaker 1: shore up this week.
• 1:38:41
  Speaker 5: Toss to Tootin. Tootin slicing to the outside. He's got
• 1:38:45
  Speaker 5: a first down.
• 1:38:46
  Speaker 1: Denver's defense not the only one that struts in either.
• 1:38:49
  Speaker 2: Of course, L.A.
• 1:38:50
  Speaker 1: 's ended up facing a backup quarterback most of last week,
• 1:38:52
  Speaker 1: but they took care of the business at hand with
• 1:38:55
  Speaker 1: Aaron Donald back on the field, held New York to
• 1:38:58
  Speaker 1: two field goals, three for 14 on third down, a
• 1:39:01
  Speaker 1: paltry 3.3 yards per play, and 0 for 2 in
• 1:39:05
  Speaker 1: the red zone.
• 1:39:06
  Speaker 2: Chris Shula's going to be a little bit more aggressive
• 1:39:08
  Speaker 2: this year. You see the press on the outside.
• 1:39:10
  Speaker 1: Didn't allow Jameis to be famous in the aftermath, picked
• 1:39:13
  Speaker 1: Winston off, just 4.1 yards per attempt, a sub-40 rate,
• 1:39:17
  Speaker 1: just 111 yards.
• 1:39:19
  Speaker 19: Winston is going to be picked easily, intercepted by McDuffie.
• 1:39:24
  Speaker 1: Now they get Bo Nix. He comes off a much
• 1:39:27
  Speaker 1: better showing compared to week one, did leave with an
• 1:39:30
  Speaker 1: INT again, but 288 yards, lots of chunk passes, 9.3
• 1:39:35
  Speaker 1: yards per attempt.
• 1:39:36
  Speaker 18: Nix on the move, wide open, touchdown, the Broncos with
• 1:39:41
  Speaker 18: a big answer.
• 1:39:42
  Speaker 1: Offense overall, though, still needs work. Left lots of points
• 1:39:46
  Speaker 1: on the board, going 2-for-5 in the red zone, only
• 1:39:49
  Speaker 1: 4-for-11 on third down, they haven't put up 21 points
• 1:39:52
  Speaker 1: in a game yet.
• 1:39:53
  Speaker 5: Dials it up, and it's intercepted! The Broncos turn it over!
• 1:39:58
  Speaker 1: Wasn't an O-line issue when it came to the passing game.
• 1:40:01
  Speaker 1: Nix wasn't sacked once on 31 pass attempts, and also
• 1:40:04
  Speaker 1: faced pressure less than 20% of the time, and he
• 1:40:07
  Speaker 1: was blitzed 45% of his throws.
• 1:40:10
  Speaker 5: Fake the handoff, Nix through the air. extending for it, incomplete.
• 1:40:15
  Speaker 1: LA's pass rush may have only come up with two
• 1:40:17
  Speaker 1: sacks on 32 Giants pass attempts, but they applied pressure
• 1:40:21
  Speaker 1: at a fat 58% of the time, Byron Young picking
• 1:40:25
  Speaker 1: up his first bag of 2026.
• 1:40:27
  Speaker 19: Winston steps through, but caught from behind and brought down.
• 1:40:31
  Speaker 19: And that's Byron Young, who has been all over Winston.
• 1:40:35
  Speaker 1: Rams DBs gave up 48 yards to Darnell Mooney, held
• 1:40:38
  Speaker 1: everybody else to fewer than 35 yards, only gave up
• 1:40:41
  Speaker 1: one yard to Malik Neighbors. Only one Bronco with more
• 1:40:44
  Speaker 1: than 32 yards last week. Evan Ingram, 17. Cortland Sutton, 25.
• 1:40:50
  Speaker 1: Troy Franklin, 27. Nate Adkins caught the touchdown, 32 yards.
• 1:40:55
  Speaker 1: Jalen Waddell, the big week two earner, didn't get to
• 1:40:58
  Speaker 1: Waddell but 138 yards to make his mark as a Bronco.
• 1:41:02
  Speaker 5: Deep shot.
• 1:41:03
  Speaker 2: Jalen Waddell's got it. Down to the one.
• 1:41:07
  Speaker 1: Denver's rush attack. Still looking to find some traction. Jonah
• 1:41:10
  Speaker 1: Coleman scored.
• 1:41:11
  Speaker 4: Hand it to him.
• 1:41:12
  Speaker 2: Coleman takes it in for the touchdown. The rookie.
• 1:41:16
  Speaker 1: But only 3-9 a carry on 10 attempts.
• 1:41:19
  Speaker 2: J.K.
• 1:41:19
  Speaker 1: Dobbins 36 yards on 3-6 a try. They were without R.J.
• 1:41:23
  Speaker 2: Harvey.
• 1:41:24
  Speaker 1: Rams held Cam Scadaboo to three a carry in their win,
• 1:41:27
  Speaker 1: the Giants to just 52 yards on 2.5 per attempt.
• 1:41:31
  Speaker 2: Now on second down, Scadaboo gets one.
• 1:41:36
  Speaker 1: No team's fan base had a bigger case of the
• 1:41:38
  Speaker 1: moon days than Chicago's last week. Did get to exhale
• 1:41:42
  Speaker 1: a little in the aftermath, but bears having to try
• 1:41:45
  Speaker 1: and rebound from the highest of highs to the lowest
• 1:41:48
  Speaker 1: of lows in seven days.
• 1:41:50
  Speaker 22: Here we go, last breath for Chicago, and Dallas Turner
• 1:41:54
  Speaker 22: finishes the job.
• 1:41:56
  Speaker 1: They are at home again, taking on Philadelphia. The Eagles,
• 1:41:59
  Speaker 1: able to pull out their late game, come back to
• 1:42:02
  Speaker 1: stay perfect at 2-0.
• 1:42:04
  Speaker 20: And Ward just slings it to nobody in particular. It
• 1:42:07
  Speaker 20: was deflected, and the game is over.
• 1:42:10
  Speaker 1: Philly just barely avoiding a major upset, so on they
• 1:42:13
  Speaker 1: march looking for a 3-0 start to 2026. Jalen Hurts
• 1:42:16
  Speaker 1: hits week three off a 2-I-N-T game, but when he
• 1:42:19
  Speaker 1: had to turn it on, he did. Threw his second
• 1:42:22
  Speaker 1: touchdown of the game late, went for over 260 yards.
• 1:42:26
  Speaker 20: Roll into the right, floats it back of the end zone.
• 1:42:29
  Speaker 2: It is caught!
• 1:42:31
  Speaker 1: Philadelphia's offense good for 24 points in each game so far,
• 1:42:35
  Speaker 1: right at that respectable line. Three for four in the
• 1:42:38
  Speaker 1: red zone, converted 11 of 18 third down tries last week,
• 1:42:42
  Speaker 1: have converted more than half those across two games.
• 1:42:45
  Speaker 2: Hurts floats one. Oh, pass to Sticks and a perfect pass.
• 1:42:49
  Speaker 11: You know, this is where this Philadelphia offense can go
• 1:42:51
  Speaker 11: to another level.
• 1:42:52
  Speaker 1: They would like to see more pop from their offense
• 1:42:55
  Speaker 1: this week, though. Only 4.7 yards per play versus Tennessee.
• 1:42:59
  Speaker 1: Chicago seemingly needs their defense to show up again like
• 1:43:03
  Speaker 1: it did last week. Held Minnesota to 4-8 per play.
• 1:43:06
  Speaker 1: No touchdowns, just nine points. Three for 13 on third down.
• 1:43:11
  Speaker 1: Only let Minnesota inside the 20 once. It was a.
• 1:43:13
  Speaker 22: Marked improvement over their week one play versus Carolina.
• 1:43:17
  Speaker 2: Did the rain help?
• 1:43:24
  Speaker 1: Facing a backup quarterback in Carson Wentz, whatever. They held
• 1:43:27
  Speaker 1: him to 143 yards, a sub-80 rating.
• 1:43:30
  Speaker 22: 21, Wentz quickly juggled it incomplete.
• 1:43:34
  Speaker 1: Their defensive play and play versus the pass was enough
• 1:43:37
  Speaker 1: to win most games, so if they can stay that
• 1:43:39
  Speaker 1: tough versus Hurts, it would give them a chance. The
• 1:43:42
  Speaker 1: pass-rush battle will be key to that. They dropped Wentz
• 1:43:45
  Speaker 1: three times, Dayo Odingbo and Austin Booker with a bag each.
• 1:43:49
  Speaker 2: They sent an.
• 1:43:50
  Speaker 22: Extra man 50% of the time versus Wentz, only pressured.
• 1:43:53
  Speaker 2: Him on 29% of his throws.
• 1:44:00
  Speaker 1: Hertz didn't face many Titans blitzes, however, faced a hefty 40%
• 1:44:05
  Speaker 1: pressure rate, taking three sacks for the second game in
• 1:44:08
  Speaker 1: a row. Four of Philadelphia's five linemen gave up five
• 1:44:12
  Speaker 1: or six pressures each last week. Cam Juergens, the only
• 1:44:16
  Speaker 1: lineman blamed for a sack allowed, he got moved to guard,
• 1:44:19
  Speaker 1: gave up a hefty 14% pressure rate. This is an
• 1:44:23
  Speaker 1: area many Bird Gang faithful are worried about.
• 1:44:25
  Speaker 20: That's the time to ratchet up the pass rush, and
• 1:44:28
  Speaker 20: Jacob Martin comes up with a sack.
• 1:44:31
  Speaker 1: Chicago's corners kept Justin Jefferson to 55 yards, didn't allow
• 1:44:35
  Speaker 1: any other Viking to hit 30 yards, but corner Jalen Johnson,
• 1:44:39
  Speaker 1: who spent a lot of time with Jettas, gave up
• 1:44:41
  Speaker 1: a team-high 41 yards and a 100-plus rating, and he
• 1:44:45
  Speaker 1: gave up 127 yards the week before. Now he gets
• 1:44:49
  Speaker 1: Devontae Smith, went from 53 yards week one... to 117
• 1:44:53
  Speaker 1: week two with a score, led the team in targets
• 1:44:56
  Speaker 1: for the second week in a row.
• 1:44:58
  Speaker 2: Hurts floats it.
• 1:44:59
  Speaker 20: End zone, finds Devontae Smith for the touchdown.
• 1:45:02
  Speaker 2: There's the home run.
• 1:45:03
  Speaker 1: Dallas Goddard had the big game in the opener, then
• 1:45:06
  Speaker 1: only four yards a week ago, hurt his knee in
• 1:45:08
  Speaker 1: the second quarter and didn't come back. Makai Lemon, 14 yards.
• 1:45:12
  Speaker 1: Dontavian Wicks seems to be earning Hurts' trust. Five catches,
• 1:45:16
  Speaker 1: six targets versus the Titans. 74 yards, so back-to-back 70-plus
• 1:45:21
  Speaker 1: yard games.
• 1:45:22
  Speaker 20: Pump, throw, open man, first down. New reliable, Dontavian Wicks.
• 1:45:26
  Speaker 1: What should Philadelphia expect from their ground game? Ran 32 times,
• 1:45:31
  Speaker 1: only 89 yards, just 2.8 a carry. Saquon Barkley left
• 1:45:35
  Speaker 1: week two hurt. Hainback ended the day with nine yards,
• 1:45:38
  Speaker 1: only four attempts. Was set to get an MRI in
• 1:45:41
  Speaker 1: the aftermath.
• 1:45:42
  Speaker 20: Barkley being shaken up, got tumbled upon by a lot
• 1:45:45
  Speaker 20: of weight.
• 1:45:45
  Speaker 1: If he's fully healthy and gets his normal workload, he
• 1:45:48
  Speaker 1: could be lined up for a big night versus Chicago's defense.
• 1:45:51
  Speaker 1: They gave up 4-9 a carry to Chuba Hubbard week one,
• 1:45:54
  Speaker 1: then gave up 105 yards to Aaron Jones on 4-6
• 1:45:58
  Speaker 1: a carry despite the conditions.
• 1:46:00
  Speaker 22: Second and seven, Jones again, a lot of room, and
• 1:46:03
  Speaker 22: Aaron Jones crosses the 20.
• 1:46:05
  Speaker 1: The pressure, of course, is on for Chicago's D because
• 1:46:08
  Speaker 1: nobody can be sure what they're going to get from
• 1:46:10
  Speaker 1: their offense.
• 1:46:11
  Speaker 2: And he's in pain. Oh, no. The stadium is silent.
• 1:46:17
  Speaker 1: It was like every Bears fan took the biggest kick
• 1:46:20
  Speaker 1: to the you-know-whats that you can take. Luckily, it wasn't
• 1:46:23
  Speaker 1: an Achilles injury, pulled hammy. So now they have to
• 1:46:26
  Speaker 1: march on with Tyson Bajent, they hope, completed a few
• 1:46:30
  Speaker 1: passes to give the team a chance at the end
• 1:46:32
  Speaker 1: of last week at least.
• 1:46:33
  Speaker 22: Middle, there's Burden with a juggling catch.
• 1:46:36
  Speaker 2: So there it is.
• 1:46:37
  Speaker 1: But he's in concussion protocol. If he doesn't clear, they
• 1:46:41
  Speaker 1: turn to Case Keenum. The last time he started a game, 2023.
• 1:46:46
  Speaker 1: Chicago's offense, though, not able to produce in the wet
• 1:46:49
  Speaker 1: conditions against Minnesota's blitz-happy defense, even when Caleb was playing, too.
• 1:46:54
  Speaker 1: Three points after that 59-week-one explosion, 4.2 yards per play,
• 1:46:59
  Speaker 1: 5-for-15 on third down, and 0-3 in the red zone.
• 1:47:03
  Speaker 2: He's got it.
• 1:47:04
  Speaker 22: DeAndre Swift lost the ball, and Minnesota's got it.
• 1:47:08
  Speaker 1: Now they take on an Eagles defense that held their
• 1:47:10
  Speaker 1: opponents to 22 and then 20 points, been good enough
• 1:47:14
  Speaker 1: to get the job done.
• 1:47:16
  Speaker 2: Fake it. Fake it again.
• 1:47:17
  Speaker 20: Ward slings it. It's dropped in the end zone.
• 1:47:20
  Speaker 1: Bajent draws a secondary that held Cam Ward without a touchdown.
• 1:47:24
  Speaker 1: They haven't allowed either quarterback they've faced to hit 109
• 1:47:28
  Speaker 1: passing yards in a game.
• 1:47:29
  Speaker 20: On third down, it is Ward with a rifle shot
• 1:47:32
  Speaker 20: for Carnell Tate.
• 1:47:33
  Speaker 2: Incomplete, and he got drilled.
• 1:47:35
  Speaker 1: Giving up 9.2 yards per attempt to Ward isn't great, though.
• 1:47:39
  Speaker 1: But last week, it was their linebackers who got tagged
• 1:47:41
  Speaker 1: with most of the yards they allowed, not the secondary.
• 1:47:44
  Speaker 1: Bears pass catchers, tight end Colston Loveland, three yards over
• 1:47:49
  Speaker 1: two games so far, baffling. Luther Burden went for 32
• 1:47:53
  Speaker 1: yards last week, but he had seven targets. Kalief Raymond,
• 1:47:56
  Speaker 1: 40 yards, back-to-back weeks with 40-plus.
• 1:47:59
  Speaker 2: Keeps it alive, lets it go. Kalief Raymond, first down.
• 1:48:04
  Speaker 1: Rome Odunze, 43 yards, also has topped 40 in both games.
• 1:48:08
  Speaker 2: Steps up, lets it go, there's Odunze! He's got it!
• 1:48:13
  Speaker 1: De'Andre Swift led the team in receiving yards with 54.
• 1:48:16
  Speaker 22: Screen for Swift and he's got some room. He's got
• 1:48:18
  Speaker 22: blockers in front. DeAndre Swift.
• 1:48:20
  Speaker 1: He was not as efficient on the ground, though. Chipped
• 1:48:24
  Speaker 1: in 45 yards, but only 2-8 a run, and lost
• 1:48:27
  Speaker 1: that ball at the goal line, which really hurt. Kyle Menungai,
• 1:48:31
  Speaker 1: 47 yards on 4-7 a carry. He started his year
• 1:48:34
  Speaker 1: off well.
• 1:48:35
  Speaker 2: Pass rush sitch. Caleb and Bajent took four sacks combined
• 1:48:38
  Speaker 2: versus Minnesota, 35 pass attempts. Faced a ridiculous 79% blitz.
• 1:48:39
  Speaker 1: Rate, faced pressure 48% of the time. No Bears linemen
• 1:48:59
  Speaker 1: blamed for any of their sacks, though right tackle Darnell
• 1:49:02
  Speaker 1: Wright gave up a 16% pressure rate and seven pressures.
• 1:49:06
  Speaker 1: Philadelphia got to Ward twice, only blitzed 25% of the time, though,
• 1:49:10
  Speaker 1: so Bajent is facing a different kind of attack. Jalen
• 1:49:13
  Speaker 1: Carter and Nolan Smith with their week two sacks.
• 1:49:16
  Speaker 20: Keeps it, and the Eagles were not fooled. That's Jalen Carter.
• 1:49:21
  Speaker 1: Bears need to clean up the penalties so many in
• 1:49:24
  Speaker 1: the first half last week.
