In short

Week 2 NFL recap and debate across multiple games, centered on quarterback injuries and offensive performance—especially Jayden Daniels’ elbow injury in the Cowboys’ 30-27 win over Washington, plus Eagles-Titans, Vikings-Bears, and Panthers-Falcons.

Guests (hosts)

Ocho (Ocho Cinco) and Joe (likely Joe/Uncle Joe), plus “Unk” and “Partner” voices throughout the discussion.

Guest backgrounds

Ocho is a former NFL wide receiver known for candid football takes. Joe/Uncle Joe is a long-time NFL commentator/analyst voice on this show; the other recurring voices (“Unk,” “Partner,” “Cowie and Elliot”) are co-host/segment voices.

Key claims

  • Daniels’ left elbow dislocated again; X-rays negative for fracture; expected to miss time.
  • Cowboys offense looked like a true “offensive juggernaut” (Dak 26/31, 279; CeeDee Lamb 8-153-2).
  • Eagles beat Titans 24-20; Jalen Hurts responded to Jeffrey Simmons’ comments by throwing from the pocket and delivering the winning TD.
  • Vikings’ 9-3 win over Bears: Caleb Williams carted with hamstring injury; Vikings defense/special teams mattered.
  • Panthers crushed Falcons 34-3; Cooper Rush benched after interceptions; Michael Penix Jr. could debut soon.

Notable examples

  • Debate over coaching decisions (tight end blocking vs elite pass rushers).
  • Eagles’ final-drive approach vs Simmons’ “make Hurts play quarterback” remark.
  • Falcons’ inability to reach the red zone through two games.

Horrible news for the Commanders that Jaden Daniels dislocated his elbow in the game. Coach Quinn said Daniels suffered another dislocated left elbow and is expected to miss some time.

2:44X-rays was negative and showed no fracture. The last time he injured the elbow, he missed about a month. I know about those dislocated elbows. I suffered one myself. Guys.

2:56Joe Johnson:That's the left guard fault, man. He stepped on his foot. Why you stepping back so far, man? Why you ain't kicked the damn field goal?

3:06You getting the ball coming out of the half.

3:12Remember, I just talked about coach's decision. Same thing. Ben Johnson. Let me ask you a question. Your pass catching tight end, Costa Loveland, you really want him blocking? Dallas Turner on a crucial play. That's what you really want. That's the Vikings' first to second best pass rusher, and you got him going against a pass catching tight end. Really? Really? You should have had his ass out of the route. I don't get coaches. I don't.

3:46you're not going to make a living asking your tight end to block these premium defensive ends. You're not.

3:57Joe Johnson:Unless you're George Kittle. But go ahead. I don't want George Kittle consistently blocking Miles Garrett. I don't want him consistently blocking TJ Watt and a Will Anderson Jr. and a Dallas Turner. And I don't want him consistently. Yeah, he can win one or two. But that ain't what I want. No, sir. Left tackles have a problem with those guys. Yeah. There's a reason why they make$40 and$50 million a year. You're not playing guys that kind of money that can't be the tight end and pass pro. I promise you. Right. I don't get DQ. You're getting the ball coming out of the half. Take the points. You're getting the ball to start the half.

4:41Oh, he know damn three points ain't going to keep you in the game against the Cowboys in Jerry World. Joe, you getting the ball to start the second half. That man needs to see. Hey, you got – look, did you see what Jayden Daniels was doing to us, bro? Yeah, I saw. I'm talking about he had us at his mercy, running, throwing. We couldn't stop him. Doing everything. But when you can diss the field, I can limit where he can go because guess what I got to do, Joe? I came back at the end zone. He right there. That's why it gets harder for a scrambling quarterback because I ain't got all that space to cover.

5:21Where he going? Where am I going though, Joe? You're right.

5:31And anybody concerned, just the second time he's dislocated his elbow. Kind of like the same freakish play too, ain't it, man?

5:39Joe Johnson:Yep. Hey, trying to put his hand down. Trying to brace himself. Trying to brace himself? Hey, that thing, that's the same elbow he dislocated too, huh? Listen, I would think it would be a little stronger. Most of the time when you break something or you dislocate something, I thought it calcifies, you know, and it's a little bit more difficult for it to happen again. But if you just brace yourself and you're not putting that much weight, how does it dislocate that fast? It don't take much, Ocho. Joe, that's why they advise quarterbacks not to brace like that. Damn. He should just let himself go and just fall, huh?

6:15Man, come on, man. Man, he got to do some push-ups or something, man. Come on. Hey, look, I understand. I understand. You know, him bracing himself, that shouldn't be enough to dislocate your damn elbow or your arm, bro. I'm sorry. Oh, Joe, Joe, it don't take that much pressure to dislocate and break those kind of bones. It don't. But, Unk, there's no pressure on top of him. It's just his own body weight. But you got to realize, he might be double-joining to begin with. Wow.

6:46I just think. Hey, you saw what he did. I already knew what he did. I did. As soon as he did it, I know what he did. I knew he was done. I knew he was done. I knew he wasn't coming back in the game. But, Unk, it's just hard for me to believe, bro. I'm just keeping the 100 with you. Ocho, hear me out. for you to stumble and fall and brace yourself and for you to dislocate your elbow twice, not just once. Hey, man, it's something, bro. I'm being serious, man. You got to really lock in on your body, bro. Take care of yourself. Do your push-up. Like, hey, man, it's ways you can alleviate, you know, those type of injuries.

7:21I think because this is non-dominant arm. Your dominant arm is stronger than the non-dominant because you use it. You build it up. It was a freak. It's a freak. That's why they call them freak accidents. It was an accident. It's freakish. But I just don't know, man. I mean, he was looking so good. I mean, scrambling through the pocket, throwing. I mean. Everything. And they had a chance. That man, they called it the one up the sideline. The guy, I thought he got a knee down. They say the ball moved. McClurin. That was a touchdown. Yeah, I said it too. I thought it was a catch. That was a touchdown.

8:07McClurin, when you run that, bruh, run with width. Run with width. You got to realize the guy is rolling. The ball's going to sell. He's a quarterback. The ball's going to sell. Once you clear, Ocho, get wide. That's what the teacher, because you want the ball on your inside shoulder. hey do you blame you blame mcclellan yeah because i thought he should have got now look i'm just i can just base it on how when we ran gadget plays like that we get white right because who threw

8:40Joe Johnson:that ball hold on let me see joe he wide oh my grandma my grandma could have made that though No, he's wide open. We're talking about some of y 'all in separation. Just lay up there. But see, the thing is, you want him to pull up and be like a quarterback. He's still throwing it on the move. And the ball tailing. That's why they taught us to get wide. Because in that situation, now I guarantee you, probably come in practice, he probably pulled up. And he probably looked like Jalen. He probably pulled up. laid it out there to it you know what I guarantee you don't run that play without someone that has ability to throw the ball and I think he rushed it because he had time he could have set his feet instead of going off the run I think he saw McLaurin so wide open he just wanted to get out of his hands right away I was like oh my god with all that being said Cowboys in the winning column you can say what you want Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

9:50Both of y 'all slow down. It's week to week. It's still early in the season. It's second week. We had a muscle. I've seen a lot of food gazes out here in the NFL, too, this weekend. Yeah. I've seen some food gazes. We're going to get to it. I haven't seen some food gazes now. That's all I'm saying. From who? The Bears. Food gazes. Okay, okay. Yeah. Oh, they had to get – hey, man, look here. I don't know what DeAndre Swift was thinking. you can't fumble the ball on the one yard line Joe and conditions like that even if you don't get the ball in the end zone he fumbled on first down I don't get a crack at second down I don't get a crack at third down and I don't get a chance at a field goal I can't do that the tight end you got a ball bro you got to hold on to it I get the conditions I get that but guess what when it's raining you gonna pick up your check You don't drop it.

10:47You got to make plays, bro. I don't...

10:53I saw a lot of guys making plays today. Yo, y 'all one. That look good. I give him credit. 26 and 31, 279, 4 tubs. Yeah, CD. Get CD and credit. You saw CD? Huh? You saw CD lamb? That boy, they eating, wasn't it? Hey, hey, hey.

11:09Joe Johnson:CD stopped lamb. Hey, hold up, though. I want y 'all to slow down because I want Piggins to be patient. Your time's coming. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. Keep throwing that thing to CD. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Just be patient, baby. We're coming to you. Just be patient. Your time's coming. It's still early. We're still working some things out. Just be patient. Hey, what are we working out, Joe? Let me help you work him out. We are. We're going to find him. He's going to get his numbers. Ocho, we got him. Don't come to him. Ocho, you see what they're trying to do?

11:40They're trying to show up my value. Hey, say it again.

11:44Joe Johnson:Try to shrink my value. Say it again. That's the kind of game. No, no, no. Y 'all want him to sign that little 27 million knowing he could have been somewhere else just to do what they're doing today. Can I tell y 'all something? It's a lot easier when you go out there and you catch people by surprise. You catch these teams by surprise. He had that hell of a season last year. Hold up, Ocho. He had that hell of a season last year. He ain't surprising nobody. Now they gearing up to stop him and CD. Partner, we own all that. You know what I'm saying? But he doing his job. He doing his job. Ocho, you know, give him some time, man.

12:22We're going to work him in there. We're going to get him right. I just don't want him to get discouraged because, see, I know how you wide receiver get when y 'all ain't getting no touches and all that. You know what I mean? I know how y 'all start acting. Yeah. Okay. Okay. But, no, the Cowboys offense look really, really good. Dak was sensational today. Go ahead, Ocho.

12:45Joe Johnson:Now, I was going to say, I was going to mention Dak and that offense looking really good today, but I'm going to let you pick it up. Yeah, they look good. Dak, 26-31, 279. They didn't run the ball particularly well today. I thought Washington did a great job of neutralizing the run, but Dak did a great job of placing the ball. Actually, see, he had one. He dropped one. He should have had that one. Yep. when you think about it, but this is what we talk about when we talk about an offensive juggernaut on what it was that the Cowboys was talking about who they wanted to be before the season started offensively being a hell of a team to deal with.

13:22I don't know what that was week one. Hopefully we didn't get it out of our system, but putting up these type of numbers, man, you're going to win a lot of games. Y 'all were jokes. Calm down. Calm down. We got to start somewhere. We got to start somewhere. You know, your team's gonna split. You know, so you're on the fence. We don't know who you gonna be, Jekyll or Hyde, when you get on here. We don't know. Ocho, boy, he flying high right now. You can't tell him nothing. But guess what? The Ravens will get right next week against y 'all in Brazil. Against who? Damn. Hey, hey, hey, hey. We catching y 'all on the low, too.

14:01Our confidence booming. We done played against the commanders. They got our confidence high. we finna go to Brazil put it on you boy huh hey Unc let me tell you how it's gonna go I bet you won't bet nothing on it

14:13Joe Johnson:no disrespect to you Joe this is right for somebody disrespect me partners on let me tell you let me tell you what's gonna happen right down in Rio hey Unc they gave Derrick Henry the ball five times he gonna have about 50 carries on the couch he gonna have about 50 carries He going to have about one second. He going to have five carries on the first drive. Bet he don't. Five carries on the first drive. I guarantee he in the game with 25 plus carries. With an L. That's all we're talking about. What you say, hot L's and hot dubs. He going to get the hot L. Y 'all are going to have the ball, Joe.

14:57And he going to have that long ride from Brazil back to BMO. Back to BMO. It's a wrap. Oh, yeah. I don't know how far Dallas is from Brazil. But that's a long... You know we're going to have our feet kicked up. You know Jerry's going to make sure we right. We ain't coming over there the day before the game, jet lag. We ain't doing none of that. Hold on.

15:30Ocho, who you say y 'all got next week? Oh, we got the Steelers, Joe. We got the Steelers, Joe. Non-stop from Dallas, DFW to Brazil takes 10 hours and 15 minutes. Oh, man. 10 hours and 10 minutes to Rio de Janeiro, which will be playing. Hey. That ain't bad. That ain't bad because that Jerry guy, they're going to get us over there in 7. We ain't tripping on that.

15:58It's far from... It's far...

16:03it's 12 to 14 hours. It's 11 to 14 hours from Baltimore. Hey, what day we play? That's a Monday night? Sunday. Sunday. Sunday morning. We need to get over there by Wednesday. At least by Thursday. By Wednesday, Thursday, yeah. Make sure I hit Jerry. Make sure you get them boys over there early. Yeah. Are you feeling good? He feeling good about himself. Dak Prescott on breaking Tony Romo's all-time touch to Cowboys franchise passing record. I'm blessed. I'm honored. Records are meant to be broken, and I broke this one. Humble it. I don't take it for granted. CeeDee Lamb, eight catches, a buck 53, two tubs.

16:49Jake Ferguson, four catches, 43 yards, two tubs. Jerry was feeling good about himself. Jeff, if I'm not mistaken, Jeff Bezos and his wife were in attendance at the game and Jerry was talking some cash. He said, what did I tell y 'all? A dangerous man is an old man with money. Jerry said, y 'all ain't never heard that before? Hell, I think all men with money are dangerous. Not just old ones. You ain't lying, boy. You ain't lying. You ain't lying. No, no, no. The Cowboys look good, especially offensively. I thought Washington did some things to their defense and had some opportunity. I would have loved to see how this thing shaped up if Jay Daniels could have stayed in the game.

17:29But, hey, that's kind of been his MO. He's kind of been nicked this year. He's going to have to be more doable. But I don't know if that's his frame. I don't know what else he can do, Ocho. That's his frame. Hey, hey, hey, but I got a question. When you think about Jay Daniels, if you're the commanders, I don't know how this season going to play out. I don't know how much time he's going to miss. You got to resign that young fella and bring him back, though. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. He's your franchise. Yeah. Yeah, I'm saying even if they miss this stint, even if he missed this stint and they get off to a bad start to where they get out of the playoff picture, you know what I mean?

18:10I think at some point he comes back, he gets back healthy. Oh, he's coming back in the lineup, whether they're 0-6, or at 70, it doesn't matter. He's still coming back and playing. Right, right. Because if you're going to invest that type of money in him, you got to see something, man. You got to get back out there on that field.

18:29Joe Johnson:Hey, listen, he protected himself too when he – I'm going to joke – when he did run the ball today. Yeah. Yeah, he got down. He got down. He didn't take no unnecessary punishment. And it's so funny, the one play where he does get hurt, the guard steps on his foot, so he loses his balance. you know come and I'm like come on the field goal and guess what he ain't in the game he can't step on his foot I just don't know what I don't know what it was what it was hoping for it's fourth down in Ocho if it's third down and you got time okay let's try to make a play in the end zone if it's not there we can it's three seconds on the clock right it's three seconds

And then I would have said, we won. And then I would have said, you need to focus on your quarterback and stop worrying about me. Damn, you're not Cam Ward catching screens.

23:17Joe Johnson:That's it. No, I'm just saying. No, he needs to focus on his quarterback and not worry about me. I'm not throwing no shots. I'm just saying that if I were Jalen Hurts, that's what I would have said. Because you ain't even going to play with my name and have my name in your mouth talk about, we need to just make me play quarterback. That's what I've been doing since I was a shorty. Nah. Look, you wanted him to, on the final drive, you wanted him to stay in the pocket and beat you from the pocket. He did it. You walked to the center field, congratulations, man. Hey, hell of a player. Wish you the best.

23:53Stay healthy and move it along. He didn't beat you running around with his legs. You said you wanted to be a quarterback, which means you want him to throw the ball from the pocket. He did it. Hey, I want Ocho to beat me. I don't want Ocho to beat me over the top. Right. If I throw Ocho a hitch and he take it 60, he didn't beat me over the top. Hey, Jalen Hurts beat him from the pocket. He only had 16 yards rushing. Yeah. He did what you wanted him to do. You guys made him do what you wanted him to do What more can you say Ocho you want to the center? Yeah, you shake the man hand tell him congratulations Stay healthy.

24:37See you down the road possibly you won't shake hands

24:44Joe Johnson:Ain't shaking no hand that you talk a trade back me Now you insult me talk about you but you got you got the best of no Joe You know? You should have texted me that. No. You put that out. You put that out there. You are this and they already talk about me as a quarterback as it is saying I don't throw the ball. You know, I don't win. I've won a Super Bowl been the two of them and they still all I do is winning. Everybody still talk about me. Now I got my own players. That's a part of, you know, my, my, my, my family on another team saying taking shots at me too. Oh, no, you got to see me, homie.

25:21Man. That's why I was, hey, no, I want, see, I want to look, hey, ain't nothing like winning a game and having to look a man in the eye that had something bad to say. Ain't nothing better than that. No better people. All that they've been talking, oh, we want to do it. We want to make him do it. If a guy beat you, you know, Ocho, I want to see if he can box. I want to see if he can be getting a slugfest. Well, if we get in a slugfest and I knock you, I beat you with what you wanted.

25:50Joe Johnson:That's what I be trying to tell Joe. That's what I be trying to tell Joe. Listen, listen. I thought, hey, look, I thought Hurst responded how he needed to respond, Uncle Ocho. A game with a drive. 264 pass yards, two touchdowns. Yeah, he had two interceptions. Cool. But look, I got my big play receiver, Smith, 10 catches for 117 yards and the TD. Come on, bro. Think about it. Philly didn't play as clean this game, but I thought Jalen Hurts, he showed why he's trusted when the Eagles need – when they needed a touchdown, not a field goal, Ocho. When they needed a touchdown, they went to their young man, and he delivered, bro.

26:31You don't got to get on here and be like, oh, yeah, man, he – yeah, I heard him. I heard him what he said. Yeah, I heard what he said. Yeah, now take this hot L with you, partner. Yeah. Yeah. I heard what he said. He saw what I did. Yeah, hello.

26:47Joe Johnson:hello I ain't trying to hear listen that's too PC for me I just told y 'all I want players to be honest because I guarantee you when the homeboys asked him you heard what Jeffrey Simmons said he said something else he didn't say what he said in front of the media when the camera rolling I can tell you what Jalen Hurst did is basically what they said in the bible if somebody slap you you just turn another cheek that's what he felt like he said when somebody say something bad about you he didn't say nobody put no hands But you heard what I said. Yeah. Uh-uh. I ain't going to let you keep taking shots at me.

27:20That's in the Bible. I ain't in there. Yeah. I ain't seen nobody named Shannon in the Bible.

27:28Joe Johnson:Hey, see? That's why I see. See? That's why I need to be playing today, man. Why? Because if I was one of Jalen Hurst's receivers, huh? Well, I would have fired back, boy. I would have fired back for him. They did. Hell, they did. By catching 10 catches is 117 yards. How much you want me to find back? You need to keep my receiver name out your mouth. That's my guy. That's your guy? Devontae Smith? Yeah, he's my fantasy team. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

27:57I got him in, what's, in Armoura. Him in Armoura. Oh, OK. All right, you got a nice little score. Y 'all probably put some numbers. That's why I beat the brakes off Ocho.

28:08Joe Johnson:It's cool. Oh, now it's cool. Hey, like I said, hey, Joe, when it comes to playing fantasy football i'm getting so happy now he's not this ain't a hey hey hey hold on why are you talking i think you got me next week here why are you sitting there bumping your guns hey joe you've been losing please i didn't wax ash what you talking about that's bad look ask me to get you going forward to you my bad ass i didn't mean to bring you in this my bad ass go ahead and sell up players hey as you got anybody you want to sell

28:48Your team, your team, her team already on our. Hey, hey, hey, but on another note, what about Saquon Barkley? I see he went out with the, what he had, what he hurt? His hamster. What was that? A shoulder, a stinger. Got a pinched nerve. That ain't that bad, Joe. That's Ash got two. Ash, that's a running back. She got him in the Saquon, K-9. Hey, can I ask, hey, I got a real question. Because I seen this today. I said, damn, I got to bring it up to Ocho. Is that Madden-Kersh thing for real, bro? Yeah.

29:21Joe Johnson:Ooh, Joe. No, not really because Josh Allen was on the cover, and he played a full season. And the way JSC is going, JSC is going to have about 25 touchdowns. Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey. I don't know what that corner. I know what he was doing. He trying to jump that out, being aggressive. Did you see him give him that move and didn't break stride? Hey, beep beep boop. Hey, that's two times. Every time I turn around, I see Buddha. And Buddha like, hey, hey Buddha, I wouldn't have chased him. Because people think that's your fault. Oh, it was his fault. It was 101. The safety was in the middle of the field.

30:02But I'm saying Buddha was the corner?

30:07Joe Johnson:No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. That's what I'm saying. Buddha chasing him. Oh, trying to catch him. No, whether you know when they turn that film on, you at least want to show you make it after you catch him. Nah, who the last one to chase him in the end zone? That's who Manny was. That's why you running so hard. Dose, sir. That was a good move. Jason cut him. Oh, man. He did a number today. But no, look. Jalen responded how he was supposed to respond. Yep. Y 'all want to make me prove to y 'all that I can beat y 'all throwing the football. No rushing, no tush push. Y 'all want me to show y 'all that I can throw this football?

30:48Okay, okay. I got something for y 'all. Hey, Smitty, let's get to work on him. Ooh. And that's exactly what happened. Yeah. That's exactly what happened. And I appreciate that, Smitty. Appreciate that good old fantasy. Yeah, 10 catches? Come on, man.

31:07Joe Johnson:You knew we were going to have Smitty. Huh? You know what Smitty died? What is it? McDonald? Hell, he got that little thin frame like you. Y 'all can't gain no weight. He put a little bit of weight. I'm just telling you what his diet is and what his nutrition is and why he's playing the way he's doing. Can you imagine if Smitty ain't healthy? What, you try to get him to 140?

31:35The hell? He need a pack on his mitt, He need to eat whatever he wants.

31:46Cam Ward, 13-20, 183 yards, two rushing touchdowns.

31:53Joe Johnson:Hey, I got a question, too. You just told me the numbers, right? But it's hard for me to have a fair assessment on Cam Ward's play because I was at Allegiant or NRG Stadium watching my Bengals beat up on the Texans. So I need you, if you saw today's game, to tell me exactly what went wrong with Cam. I wasn't able to see. I couldn't see what game was. Ocho, I'm going to give it to you short. He's not very good right now.

32:24Joe Johnson:Joe, what you think? Yeah, I probably agree with Ocho. You know, it's still early in his career. But I don't know if it's the weapons around him to where he came. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Cardell Tate, Calvin Ridley, Rondell Robinson Ridley? Listen, y 'all can run all these damn names off, but hey, hey, hey, when I look at the stat sheet, it ain't statin', okay? It just so... Matter of fact, chat, chat, I know y 'all can see me. You give me honest opinion, chat, because one thing about the chat, they ain't gonna die. The chat, they not gonna sugarcoat nothing. Be honest with you and give me a fair assessment on what the issue is with Cam Moore.

33:08Joe Johnson:Keep it short. It ain't got to be long because I ain't going to read too much now. Just make it one line real quick. Just do that for me, please. I wasn't able to see this game. It can't be that bad. Not with Cardinal Tate. Not with Calvin Ridley. What's young bull that came from the Giants? That was balling. Come on, man. Come on, man. And you know what I don't like? I don't like the fact that he's playing bad and the man that where they revoked his past now they're making him look like he he right i was hoping he would play well and prove him wrong dude if you keep playing like this they're gonna tell the reporter to come back we apologize now he's just gonna keep he's gonna have to keep asking them some tough questions you see but but but what about freedom of speech we're like we like freedom of agreeance if I agree with you Ocho you're free to continue to talk if I don't I'm going to try to shut you up or shut you down wait a minute I like this I like to see see see y 'all not giving me the whole story now I'm looking at the chat now most of the chat say the old line is bad and Cam Ward is running for his life Ocho he's not good he's not good right now not saying that he won't.

34:29Yes, he ain't the only one. CJ Stroud, O-line ain't good. Joe Burrow, O-line ain't good. Joe Burrow got sick five times. He was running for his life. You saw Joe.

34:41Joe Johnson:Was Joe running for his life? Time out, time out, time out. We playing a top three defense in the league. Was he running for his life? Was he running for his life? Was he making plays? Yeah, he was. Yeah, but I mean, we can't compare. We can't compare, you know. Oh, never mind. You got it. All right. What pick was Joe Burrell? What pick was Cam Ward? Joe Burrell had the same. You remember Joe Burrell went to Tennessee? Got sacked nine times. Still won the game. He go to Kansas City, get sacked another five times. Still won the game. Go to Buffalo.

35:24That's the thing. You can't make a whole bunch of excuses, Ocho. because everybody got those excuses.

35:30Joe Johnson:Yeah, I ain't going to make none. Listen, I'm just basing my response on the chat who has a better assessment than me because I wasn't able to watch that game. The one game I wasn't able to watch was that one. You know, because, hey, Joe, when I'm sitting in the stands, you know, I'm on red zone, Joe. Yeah, I'm on red. I got my phone propped up, you know, watching. So I'm okay, boom, okay, ooh. And it's another game we ain't got to yet. I'm kind of mad. but the fact that they're competing and they fighting. Who fighting? Well, Aaron Glenn, you doing a number over there, boy. Yeah. Aaron Glenn, you doing a number over there.

36:04Joe Johnson:Well, Aaron Glenn, look here.

36:09What, Aaron Glenn, first of all, why you going for it? We're going to talk about it. Like I said, these coaches, y 'all got to stop this foolishness. And then, use your time out. We're going to move on. The Vikings defeated the Bears 9-3. scary day from Bears' Caleb Williams, who was carted off the field and reported a hamstring injury in the fourth quarter. Here's Ben Johnson on the latest with Caleb Williams' injury. Thank goodness. Do you have a sense of the severity of Caleb's injury? No, we'll know tomorrow. Do you have a chance to talk to him?

38:51Joe Johnson:Didn't catch the latest Roland Martin Unfiltered podcast? Here's what you missed. And the argument is, do you want to win? If you don't win, you have no power. It's real. Those are the very people who I always say vote against their own economic interests, and they complain about the very thing they're receiving. It's raw. I knew that the issue of transgender athletes was not going well with a lot of black men. Roland Martin unfiltered. I went off. I said, this is exactly what I'm talking about.

39:45Joe Johnson:And download Roland Martin Unfiltered on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. That was my first inclination. But, yeah, the hamstring could be pretty damaging as well. So we'll see how bad it is tomorrow. And, you know, we'll go from there. But, yeah, it's quickly got to turn the page. And particularly when you're right there, we needed points desperately at that point. And, you know, it's a shame.

40:16Joe Johnson:Hey, I was nervous, Uncle Joe. I saw the replay and I saw him go down. There was no contact. There was no contact. He just pulled up. And normally, Joe, when someone pulls up like that, you know, and they turn over, what's the first thing you think it is? His knee is Achilles. Yep. Achilles. I thought it was Achilles. So I'm like, oh, come on, man. Not week two. Not Caleb Williams. Not as well as they played last week. Putting up 59. And the only reason I think, obviously, the Minnesota defense is very good. The Minnesota defense is very good. So, obviously, you can't put up 59 every single week.

40:57Joe Johnson:Hold on, hold on, hold on. You can't put up 59 every week, Uncle Ocho. Excuse me. but to come back and drop a tray three points bro after scoring there 60 points that's like me coming out in the game i i i score 50 and i i come back the next game i drop a four come on man i've been hearing all this high praise i've been hearing all this high praise about the bears and how good come on man i know inclement weather under certain conditions whatever the case may be but this football they know what they signed up for you know what i mean i just don't know how you go from 60 points to three. Well, turnovers.

41:36Joe Johnson:It happens. That's one. And you're going against a Minnesota defense with a very, very, very good. You got to be able to handle pressure. You play Minnesota. If you cannot handle pressure, you can't beat. It's hard. It's going to be hard for you to move the ball against Minnesota. Because Brian Flores is going to dial it up. Every time, Joe. You've got to be able to handle pressure when you deal with the bikes. He preheating the oven before the game even started. Yeah, this wasn't pretty, but, you know, a divisional game, they sometimes aren't, you know, when you look at style points. But when we talk about Minnesota defense and their special team, that's what won the game, bro.

42:20Yeah. You know, Chicago wasted too many opportunities. Too many opportunities.

42:27Joe Johnson:hey matter of fact the backup quarterback's not that bad is it tyler bag vignette bagnet big how you say backup quarterback bajant bajant yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah he got hey he gonna he gonna he gonna steer the ship now huh he gonna open up the sails and keep them afloat hey we got you know they got two dogs over right what's that what luther burton what and roma dunes i get all that ocho but i'm i'm thinking from a quarterback's perspective yeah this kayla william we talking about i've been hearing people talking about this man be fighting for mvp he was how much long how long he that's a hamstring injury y 'all know that's gonna linger probably the rest of it all depends is it a strain or did he tear it off the bone because if he tore it off the bone he done yeah they carted him off the field Uh-uh.

43:22But he done.

43:23Joe Johnson:You know, he, yeah. I mean, Joe, you know, you gotta be careful, man. You don't want nobody like that walking. He's your quarterback. They said he was walking around in the locker room. Yeah, so see, he good. Without clutches, but he just had a limp. I gave him three weeks, Joe. I gave him three weeks. Nah, he's gonna be more than three. A little mild strain. You know, technology is a little different than when we played. No, not drunk like that ain't no mild strain. Hey, hey, hey, hey, to be carted off, Ocho, come on, man. Yeah. Hey, well, hell, look at Paul Pierce. He went out in the damn wheelchair.

43:55Joe Johnson:He didn't want to do it. Yeah, he just wanted the dramatic effects. You know, he... Yeah, hey, man, shoot, man. Man, it's all good. It's all good. We'll know more tomorrow when they get the imaging done. Yeah. We'll see the severity of that injury. But guys drop like that, boy, that's really bad. That means it's really... Because normally you strain a little bit, you're able to hop. He stopped right there.

44:30Joe Johnson:It probably shocked him. He stopped right there. But if you're dealing with the – Hey, vet player walking to him, 11 to 20, 143. He didn't turn it over. Aaron Jones Sr. ran the ball, 119 yards. He had 105, 23 carries 105. He carried him. He carried him. And guess what? They go in there, they 2-0. And he picked up another, what, 100 ,000. Ooh. So you ride this train to the wheel, fall off, ain't it, man? Absolutely. Carson Wentz was 11-21, 43. Not great, but he got 100 ,000 for this. Aaron Jones, 105 yards. The Vikings are the first team in NFL history, regular postseason, and win four straight games with four different starting quarterbacks.

45:18Damn.

45:23they have started these quarterbacks during their seven-game win streak. McCarthy, McCarthy, Brosmer, McCarthy, Murray, Wentz.

45:37Yeah. The Panthers defeated... Boy, look at here. What happened?

45:42Joe Johnson:Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Don't be surprised. Don't be surprised. Go ahead and take your time, Matt. And when you introduce him... The Panthers defeated the Falcons 34-3. Cooper Rush, 10 of 17, 86 yards, two interceptions, benched in the third quarter. Jack Strand, he wasn't much better. 8 of 15, 59 yards. The first pass he attempted, got picked, ran back for a touchdown. According to Adam Schefter, Michael Penix Jr. could make his debut Thursday night versus the Packers. How much pressure is on Michael Penix Jr.? I never liked this because guess what? You brought in a tour that's injured to compete with a guy that's always injured.

46:28And then your backup is Cooper Rush, who hadn't been good since I was a kid. Hey, it is a lot of pressure on Michael Penix, Ocho, considering the fact that the Falcons haven't reached the damn red zone in two games, bro. In two games, they hadn't reached the red zone. I think this was a bounce back game for Carolina considering the fact that they just got their head beat in by Chicago last week. They got their 60 ball put on them. And for them to bounce back the way they did. But what we always talk about with the Falcons. Man, if you can't get no good quarterback play, I've been hollering Jack Strandhill.

47:03He getting that first pair. Pick six. He wasn't expecting to play. But he should have been. He should have been expecting. Why he wasn't expecting it? But see, this is why an NFL execs, Cooper Rush is a quality backup. No, he ain't. Cooper Rush is terrible. And this is why fans get upset because they see guys like Cooper Rush get opportunity after opportunity after opportunity. And there are some other guys. He ain't better than Jimmy G. Yeah. Jimmy G better than Cooper Rush right now. I ain't saying Jimmy G a world beater. He better than Cooper Rush.

47:39Joe Johnson:Yeah. You have to understand. You got to think how they think, huh? They're going to say Cooper Rush is a character guy. Well, he need to be in cartoons if you're a character.

47:55Joe Johnson:But listen, it's not about the Falcons. You hear me? It's not about what the Falcons didn't do. It's what the Panthers, what they did. What I told you about Bryce Young, huh? Uncle Joe, what was I preaching before the season started last year? 23 or 36, 287, three touchdowns. Kent McMillan, five for one-on-one. Jalen Coker, love his game. Eight for 66. Xavier Leggett siding, two for 64. Darren Waller, three catches, 33 yards, two tuds. Chuba Hubbard, two for 11, tud. Huh? Hey, David Tepper, I know you're going to see this. What I told you when I came out there. Then I told you this was going to happen.

48:36Joe Johnson:I told you what was going to happen. See, it all started with you. It all started with you. And you got your quarterback for the future. You got your franchise quarterback. So at the end of the season, when most of the season will probably go this way, y 'all going to make the playoffs again. You see how all the pieces of the puzzle, you put it together, and now it's going to make sense. Every Sunday. Every Sunday. Now you're picking up where you left off last year. Coach O, I wonder how Arthur Blank is feeling now because they had this thing. Allegedly, they had a thing that nobody was going to sign Lamar Jackson.

49:08Remember, you could have had Lamar Jackson for two first rounders. You got to go into the draft and get another first round quarterback. Now, just imagine, with Drake London and B. John Robinson, you got Lamar Jackson.

49:22Hey. Boy, God, boy, Grady used to say all the time, boy, God don't like ugly. Sometimes he don't like pretty. He don't.

49:31Joe Johnson:Hey, I'll tell you what. I know we got some Panther fans in the chat, boy. I told y 'all what it was going to be last year, I'm going to tell you again. We're going to make the playoffs. We're going to keep pounding all season long. I'm not sure who we got. But we're going to, hey, Joe, whoever we got next, they finna get this work too. You got all these weapons. Just, hey, it's like, you know, you got a bunch of cars and you ain't got no driving lights. You can't drive nothing. You got Bijan. You got Drake London. You got Kyle Pitts. Hey, these ATA lens around here, they sick of it. too. I'm going to tell y 'all they sicker.

50:10They done had enough.

50:11Joe Johnson:Hey, there's a quarterback. There's a quarterback that can move with it. Make it a little exciting, Uncle Joe. Make it a little fun. He's everything you have on your roster right now. Cam right there. Cam right there. He still work out. He's in shape. He can still throw the ball. I just seen him doing some content with LaShawn McCoy not long ago. We know he has an arm. But listen, it might do him some justice. They might as well bring him in. It can't hurt. he's a better option than what you have in your building right now. And that's no disrespect to, you know, who they have. I'm just saying.

50:43I love Cam. I just can't see them bringing them in, though. I can't see it, Ocho.

50:49Joe Johnson:I tell you what, Joe. Well, that's your team. Y 'all going to keep going down the drain. Why you got to throw a mouth on me, though? That's your team, Joe. You live in Atlanta, just like the Hawks. The Hawks is your team, right? The Hawks is my team, yeah. Okay, but so it's the Falcons. I root for the Falcons. I ain't like no diehard Falcon fan. I root for him. I go to games from time to time, Ocho. Damn. Why didn't you go to the game today? God was busy. We going, Joe, because we got to check the concession stand. We got to try the food. All right, how you got to do it? Let me know, Hug. You know I'm down.

51:25Joe Johnson:Hey, what? Dad, y 'all going to bring me?

51:30Yeah. Hey, Joe. I think we better hold up all day. Hey, y 'all boy, let me know, man. The Falcons are the fourth team since the NFL play-by-play was first tracked in 1978 without a red zone drive through two games, joining the 2008 Rams, the 1997 Lions, and the 1992 Patriots. They're the fourth team in the play-by-play era, first tracked in 1978 without a red zone drive in the first two games. Hey, man, it's got to be bigger than just a quarterback, though, Uncle Ocho. You can't just tell me one position determines whether you get in the red zone or not. I know it's valuable, but, man, it seems like it's bigger problems than just a quarterback position.

52:15He'll solve a lot of them. Ooh-wee. Hey, I ain't saying he all the problems, but he a major problem. Look at your quarterback room, Joe. Look how you put your quarterback room. You brought one guy in that's injury-prone to challenge a guy that's injury prone. And Cooper Rush has been bad from the beginning. So tell me who put this together. I think Matt Ryan is phenomenal. I like Matt Ryan. But boy, he did a horrible job. He did a horrible job. Now, he wasn't there for Michael Penney Jr. But I told Ocho at the time, it made no sense for me. It made no sense for them to take Cousins. I say, because at best case scenario, you might get.

53:00The man coming off an Achilles injury. He's not mobile to begin with. Now he's going to be less mobile. And you bring a guy in that's 24, 25 years of age, that's injury prone, that's going to be your starter for the future. And you say, you know what? To make matters worse, we're going to bring a guy in that's more injury prone than the guy we drafted in the first round. And if something happens to both of those guys, guess who we want to back them up? Cooper Rush.

53:34Oh, man. And then you can guess who we want to coach him. Kevin Stefanski.

53:47Well, hopefully Pennies get back, man, and he can be a sign of relief. But, man, it's just it's hard to watch that team because they got so much talent, Uncle Ocho, and can't put no points on the board. That's tough, bro. It's going to be hard to win any games. Hell, you can't get in the red zone. What are we talking about? That's what I'm saying. But it's even harder when your quarterback keep throwing interception after interception. Think about it. Who do they expect to beat? Think about it. They had five plays to start the game. Cooper Rush had turned the ball over twice. And he said, you know, for good measure, let me get me one more turnover before I get up out of here.

54:27Man, hell. Cooper Rush came to Atlanta. I don't think he's going to be the third quarterback. He wasn't thinking he was going to play Uncle Ocho. I'm thinking I'm going to start with them two injured mofos that's in front of me.

54:43Nah, he wasn't thinking that. Joe, you got one guy coming off an ACL injury. The other guy can't stay healthy. He got everything. He done had his hip dislocated. He done had concussion after concussion. he just don't look like a Cooper Rush don't look like a guy who was ready for his opportunity that's what I'm saying you know you got some guys who've been sitting in the weeds boy you put them in or they get an opportunity I feel like they're going to take advantage of it he just don't he don't show me or exude any confidence when he's out there he's not good

55:24he's not good and I know it's beating the drum in the chat I know y 'all you could have had Lamar or you could have put pressure on the Ravens two first rounders you mean think about what they gave up you mean to tell me you don't think Lamar Jackson in the prime as a 25 26 year old was worth two first round draft picks

55:48Joe Johnson:man please change your whole offense because guess what you believe with Lamar that where we going to be picking we're not going to get another quarterback I want to see them draft a quarterback that's going to be the equivalent of Lamar Jackson because he did go with another MVP after they chose not to but that's a little, you know equivalent, hold on, equivalent but we ain't going to see nothing like that for another 20 years man, no I'm saying the Falcons I want to see them draft a quarterback oh, that's what I'm saying get, let, bring him in for two first round picks because you're not going to see nothing like that for another 20 he is, it makes sense.

56:28The Falcons had no answer for Bryce Young in the Panthers offense. Bryce, 23 of 36. 287, three touchdowns. Ted McMillan, five for 101. Darren Waller had 33 yards and two touchdowns. Bryce Young ranks this season. Pass touchdowns, he's tied for first. Passing yards, he's second. Quarterback rating, he's fifth. Yards per attempt, he's third. Boy trying to get that money. He knows that state. Absolutely. back that Brink's truck up over here partner yes sir eat it he look good man I really like McMillan and Coker

57:08Joe Johnson:yeah yeah yeah hold on X-Man coming along too now 55 yard long today yeah oh yeah I like it I told you hey I know my Panthers fans in the chat I love y 'all I've been telling you, I've been standing on that table for y 'all. Ten toes down. Boy, I keep pounding. There's somebody to chat to about Lamar 2-4, the playoff record. What's the Falcons' playoff record in the last 10 years? Uh-oh. You would give anything to win two playoff games. Hmm. What's the Falcons' record in the last – Hey, give me – chat GPT. You know what? I ain't got chat. Joe, you got chat GPT? Give me the Falcons' record in the last 10 years, playoff record, the Falcons.

57:52And it made you hot, huh? Because they're talking about, oh, Lamar Jackson has two of this in the playoff. Dak Prescott, two in that. I want to know how many games the playoff games the Falcons won in the last decade. In the last decade? It's going to take you to that Super Bowl. That Super Bowl, right? Yeah. It's going to take you to this. Have they been in the playoffs? Okay, so. And they won. So they won. They were in the playoffs once in the last 10 years. Damn. So 2026, so 2016, they was 2-1, lost the Super Bowl. The next year, they lost in the divisional round, so they was 1-1. 2018, they missed the playoffs.

58:402019, they missed the playoffs. 2020, they missed the playoffs. 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, and guess what? Go have it again.

58:51Y 'all would love to have two playoff wins. As a matter of fact, you would just love to make the playoffs. Forget winning. Because you know the last game of the season, they're getting y 'all stadium ready for the bowl games. Because they normally have the Chick-fil-A bowl in there. That's the only football they'll be playing in January in there. And it's a football town, too. Or Beyonce and Chris Brown concerts. So while y 'all bumping y 'all gums, I'm talking about somebody with this and that. Y 'all would give anything to just make the playoffs. They would. Make the playoffs and as long as they beat the Saints, they cool.

59:32Yeah. Good luck beating the Saints this year with Cooper Rush. Now, he ain't going to be starting for long. He ain't going to be up there much longer. Hold on.

59:45Joe Johnson:We don't know yet now. Now, the coaches got to have a meeting. who gives us our best chance, even though we bad. Hey, you got to go with somebody. Hold on, Penick's going to come back, though, Ocho. What you talking about? You think so? Yeah. They say he could potentially start. They play Thursday night against the Packers. I hope they don't rush him back just for the sake of putting him out there now. Devin Lloyd had himself a game today, two interceptions, one return for a touchdown, a sack, nine total tackles. The last player to accomplish all that in a single game was O 'Neal Williams, December 8, 2003.

1:00:24When he was with the Cardinals? No, he might have been with Arizona. Yeah, no, no, no. He might have been with the Rams then. He feeling good, boy. Two picks, one pick, six.

1:00:36Joe Johnson:Yeah. Hey, Devin Lloyd was all over the place. He was all over the place. Yeah, my last year, me and O 'Neal made the All-American team together. I was seeing he was a junior at Southern. He was a walk-on. Wait, he went to Southern? He went to Southern, yeah. Wow. I didn't know that. That's dope. That's dope. Nah, come on, bro. Broncos defeated the Jags. That's right. My Broncos, they had me a little sweating a little bit. You know what I'm saying? Woo. Woo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo. This game went back and forth. But Bo Nix, 22-31, 288, one touchdown, one interception. Jalen Waddell showed why the Broncos went out, gave him a first-round pick to get him.

1:01:23Eight catches, a buck 38. Trevor Lawrence, who had the outstanding game one, 17-29, 189 yards. I don't know how the Broncos won this game. Ten pillars. They played some sloppy football early. That fourth quarter, huh? It was raining up? It was a nice day. Beautiful day. man, Tebow came out there, planted the flag. Man, Tebow was waving that flag so hard, the flag flew out the pole. Man, he had to start flapping it like a pillow cave.

1:01:58Hey, we put something out of the way. Hey, Duval! Duval!

1:02:06Duval! Hey, JV, stand up, where y 'all talking? Y 'all had so much to say last year. Hey, Unc, I don't want to hear you say foot or ball. If you from Jacksonville or surrounding counties, don't even, hey, y 'all already know. Y 'all can't say pigskin. Say oblong object. Hey, if you a Jags, this one hurt, boy, considering the fact they had that lead. Let them folks go 14 unanswered points in that fourth quarter. You can't ask if you don't, hey, If you don't know it, you can't answer what you don't know, Joe. I know, but they had Jacksonville had control of the game though, for three quarters. We let them get out there.

1:02:48We let them get out there to make them feel good. And he left them boys in striking distance. Oh, that's what it was.

1:02:54Joe Johnson:Yeah, they spotted them. You spotted them. Spot them and track them down. They came and got them like the 400, huh? Boy, y 'all know the blood house. We done got the blood house out there to track him down. Yeah. They were patient in that fourth quarter. Your boy Bo Nix came through for you. Yeah, you saw that? You saw Bo? Yeah, yeah. You feelin' good, Joe. Look at him. Look, it's funny how you real gloatin' over this win from the Broncos, you know what I'm saying, when last week, hell, you had your little Ravens helmet down there. You know, you - Joe, Joe, Joe, Joe. Come on, Joe. I gotta keep - Joe I got two teams you know that Joe yeah but listen you ain't really talking too much about your other team tonight to talk about we already talked about them we discussed them okay yeah okay y 'all want to talk about the Broncos I mean how we look how we look today was nice oh man you see that weather

1:03:57y 'all got we got what we got a hell of a schedule though whoo what y 'all got next I don't even want to talk about our schedule, man. Who y 'all got next? Hey, it don't even matter. They gonna catch this L. I just said, they just made it more difficult than what it needed to be to start the season. But you know, we play. Line them up, we knock them down. Okay, okay.

1:04:26Joe Johnson:Oh, you talking, boy. Line them up. You remember things like a man? Line them up. Hey, hey, what's up? Line them up. You knock them down. Yeah.

1:04:38Hey, we got the Rams on Sunday night or Monday night? Sunday night. Play the Rams next week, Sunday night. Oh, yeah. I know the Rams wants some give back. Oh, the Rams play tonight. The Rams play tomorrow. They got the Giants.

1:04:53Joe Johnson:Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, they definitely. Yeah, that's the L for y 'all. Look at that. He's so happy. Hey, you ain't going to be able to tell him nothing, boy. You ain't going to be able to keep that boy quiet. Look at it. He's so happy. Hey, Joe, he too happy right now. So you know the football guys, you know, got to humble. Yeah, I already know it, Ojo. Why they got to humble you? You was happy earlier. You all in Houston. I was at Kirby and Chapman. I mean, Chapman and Kirby, whatever it is. Yeah, I was there. You know, just say, hey, I want to thank y 'all. Hey, Cincinnati, you put y 'all shoulder for your boy.

1:05:31I mean, you know what I'm saying? It ain't so good to be there. Every time he all on my timeline. I said I didn't know Suge Knight was a football fan. He hugging everybody, all with the cameras.

1:05:47I mean, it was pretty easy. We did a number on him. We did a number on him. Y 'all did, man. I don't know about a number. If we don't stop committing all them damn penalties. Sean, you coaching this 10 penalties again? Think about the penalties they had last week against Kansas City. You either coaching it or you condoning it. Which one you do with? They got to get a rhythm, huh? Them boys ain't played no preseason here. They only got game action, so you're going to have to deal with some penalties here and now. They gave Jacksonville – they got – they gave Jacksonville four first downs on penalties.

1:06:31Damn. Play good teams, man. They get you beat there. All day long. Twice on Sunday. But it's all good. You know, we won. Bronco country. Stand up. Hey, the football guys ain't gonna like that, bro. I'm just gonna keep it real with you, because I know some people ain't gonna be 100 with you, but the football guys ain't gonna like how you flip-flop. Why they ain't like that? What'd I do? Because you flip-flopping. How you flip-flopping? Football guys ain't gonna like that. Oh, Lord have mercy. So the team that I won Super Bowls with, I ain't supposed to cheer for them.

1:07:11I ain't saying that. I'm just saying you have a way of cheering for them. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. Yeah. I will be cheering for Baltimore again next week. We're going to see about that. Yeah. We're going to see about that.

1:07:25Joe Johnson:One of y 'all is going to be upset next week. I'm not sure who it's going to be. if I had to take a guess, I would say it's probably going to be a joke. You got us bit. We got y 'all dead to right. We got y 'all where we want y 'all to be.
