NFL Week 10, Fastest 2 Minutes, Dolphins Stun The Bills, Patriots Big Win In Tampa, The Bears Keep Winning And The Rams Are A Wagon + Who's Back Of The Week

29:00All the haters of the Patriots are just going to talk about the schedule. We've played two tough teams. We beat them both. That is true. What are you going to say about that? That is true. What about the weather? You also had to overcome the weather. Yeah, no, I mean, it almost looked like a dumb decision to defer the kickoff because their first drive was in the sun. They scored a touchdown. Our first drive was in the pouring rain. Drake may have had like two overthrows, two pretty bad overthrows. it looked like he might have to overcome some rain. And then all of a sudden the Bucs got the ball back, it was sunny.

29:30It stayed sunny, so we were fine. Do you think that... That was concerning. The rain was a concern. Does the rain concern you moving forward about Drake May? Yeah, I mean, as of right now, we have one drive worth of film on Drake May in the rain. It doesn't look great. But I think that's something you can practice. Now they know. Practice the rain. Yeah. I saw the weather channel checked in with you to make sure that you thought that weather was real over the weekend. Yeah, they can fuck off. Yeah. what happened uh remember we were talking about the whether or not the uh the wind oh yeah is like less effective than the wind at sea level so yeah they they replied they said uh technically yes wind at the same speed would be less impactful at higher elevations than at sea level because the density of the air is lower there are fewer molecules to blow against you and create the resistance you feel in heavy winds blah blah blah science science science science science still think weather isn't real at hennies oh you did get a win though with the windmill breaking yeah that was crazy at what cost because all of our cranberries are fucked now like i'm you know i can't be happy with that because it just destroyed the cranberry economy big cat you gotta stay woke on that hank had something to do with that yeah or gas i mean the timing is just insane yeah it's crazy like we talk about windmills and and you're anti-windmill and you're like, yeah, when they break, it's really bad.

30:50Boom, broken windmill. Yeah, into a cranberry bog. And the people need cranberries. And probably - Right before Thanksgiving. Probably like one - Families are going to be fucked because they're going to have to pay way more for their cranberry sauce. People are going to have UTIs left and right. Yeah, yeah. Probably a bird killed in it. At least. Yeah, which would still be like a billion birds. You like cranberry sauce? A billion birds behind feral cats. But yeah, I do like cranberry sauce. Yeah. So yeah, that is a bummer. So you're affected, yeah. Yeah, we're all affected. they're just not gonna have cranberries i don't know it's gonna be a recession was that the only bog the only cranberry recession of cranberries yeah a shortage of cranberries yes damn uh but it was a great win it was a complete game defense played great again a couple big third and fourth down stops no 50 yard rushing again it's oh wrong oh that's back not that and well wait It wasn't Rashad White Oh he's been waiting on it It wasn't Rashad White It was Tucker Sean Tucker I think he had 52, 54 yards Yeah I looked it up 53 yards Damn The streak is dead Alright whatever The eh is mean I agree I agree Wholeheartedly agree Never in a million years would I have my good friend, my dear friend, Hank Lightwood.

32:20I see us going down a bad path of Well, if you're wrong, you deserve to be

32:28It's when you're You weren't even wrong, PFD. Yeah, it's only when the other guys write that it's a problem to

32:39So, Goodwood, the Bucks are kind of in a slump. And the Bucks are in a weird spot because they have at Bills, who just lost, which Max, I know that you don't think that matters, but the Bills will probably be a little hungrier. And then at the Rams. And Baker has been in a little bit of a slump. Like, it's just not, it's not like, I mean, today he still threw three touchdowns, hit some big, you know, one of them was in garbage-ish time at the end, but he's been in a little bit of a slump the last, like, three games. Is Baker injured? I think he is. Because he's kind of stopped running as much as he did.

33:13Yeah. And the stats have fallen pretty far down. And we know that given his history, he's not going to tell the coach, hey, take me out, I'm injured. Right. That's the big mistake that the Browns did. At some point, they should have stepped in and be like, okay, you're just not going to play anymore. Get your shoulder fixed. Yeah. Because he's not going to take himself out. I think he'll be fine long term. I'm just saying it's okay to admit the Bucs and Baker in a little bit of a slump. Zach, would you agree? I agree that today the Buccaneers beat themselves as bad football. Couldn't establish the run.

33:44So not a win for the Patriots. I think a lot of teams that we would have been going up against would have gotten the win if we played like we played today. Patriots look cool. Patriots might have an inflated record due to their current schedule this season. What does that mean? I like this, Zach. What does that mean? I'm just hearing a lot of things about some of the opponents. Don't say hearing. What do you think, Zach? Let's hear what your original takes is. I'm hearing around the league that your schedule might not have been the hardest. What do you mean around the league? And I agree. Remember, he sits next to memes.

34:13Yeah, Zach is saying that league circles are telling him that the schedule is not so good. Yeah, I sit right next to you. I'm in the middle. You and Max. Look, you guys played football today. We played worse football. Ball up top. Ball up top. Good game, Hank. I had a little conversation. What? Do you want to go back at Zach? No. No, go back at him. No, it's good to know where he stands. He just talked some junk on you. It's just banter. No respect. It is. I mean, we just – You just went savage on him for a little bit. Straight up, man-to-man, up your fucking balls in your face, and you went with the schedule talk.

34:49That's crazy. I say good game. I got respect for you. Yeah, he was just passing on what he heard from sources. Good game. It was a good game. He said good game. Are you guys a playoff team? Yes. You think? They are. So we beat a playoff team today. Yes. You did. Fact or fiction? Yes, you did. Yeah, it was a good win. It was a good win. Thank you. No, the Bucs are a playoff team. The problem with the Bucs – and I talked to our good friend Stephen Shea, who is always the optimist and always the we're fine. I said, you guys are in trouble. He's like, well, we'll be fine. No one gained ground in the NFC South today.

35:22Fact. That's how I know. Well, I guess the Saints did. Yeah, the Saints did. But the third and fourth seed in the NFC, you don't want to be there because you're going to play a combination of the Rams, Seahawks, Lions, or Packers. Yeah. Most likely. Most likely, right? You don't really want to be anywhere. The NFC is just good. Unless you get the one or – The seven seed could be the 49ers or the Bears. That's a team – would you rather play the 49ers or Bears or the Rams, Seahawks, Lions, or Packers? Yeah, obviously. Yeah, I'm just saying there's probably – if you look at the NFC, it feels like there are five or six really, really good teams.

36:09and then the seventh is going to maybe be not so great. It's going to be shaky. Is that fair to say? Yeah, that's fair to say. But, you know, it's a playoffs. You've got to beat good teams. Well, yeah, the loser of the NFC West is going to be a really good team. Second place. Second place, yeah, the Rams and the Seahawks. I mean, I guess the Niners are still in it too. There's some really, really good teams in the NFC, and that four seed is not going to be a fun spot to be. Hank, if you're looking at the Patriots right now, 8-2, awesome record. Where would you put them in terms of the best teams in the AFC?

36:501-3. 1-3. Who else is in the 1-3 category? Chiefs. I would still put the Bills up there. Colts. What about the Ravens? Not as it currently stands. I mean, it'll be a fun game. We play them at the end of the season. They're going to need to win. That's going to be a great test before the playoffs. It's going to be in the rain? Who knows? It's not for like another month. Are you worried at all about the Jets on Thursday? Yes. You are? Yeah. Very worried. I don't want to go back to Amish. Oh, wait. What's the bet? Loser has to go Amish. Oh, I want to see you go back to Amish. Wait. Wait. Do you have that bet?

37:31I think it was just you have to go Amish. Oh, yeah. That's not a bet. No downside. You already agreed to it. I think you just made that up. But you agreed to it. Hank, he just said it. No, he said it last week. He was like, I'll go Amish if we lose to the Jets. All right, whatever. Yeah, the Jets are playing good ball right now. Okay. So, Bucs, you're still – where are you at, Zach? On the meter of feeling great and feeling not good, I'm okay. Okay. A little bit impartial. Patriots played good. Drake may play good football today. Oh, there you go, Zach. There you go. What do you think about the Patriots' schedule, though?

38:10We talked about that a little earlier. I still think. Look, it was a tough day, tough loss. Really would have liked to win that game. Yeah. I mean, the shitty thing about the Patriots' schedule is, yeah, they're playing weak teams, but they've beaten the good teams that are on their schedule. Yeah, they've had two big wins. There's not a lot that you can say. Still got the Bills, still got the Ravens, still got the Jets twice. Yeah. That touchdown pass Drake May made was pretty sick. I know it was a lot of yards after the catch, but it was a guys not open, threw him open type of pass. It was pretty elite.

38:41There's one deep ball a game. It's third down. It's beautiful. Do you respect Henderson? Yeah, he's back. I love Diggs. Diggs is a great leader. I love that they kind of have been pushing him. That's just good rookie hazing. You can't break off a 50-yard run, and then boom, he does it twice. Yeah. Okay. Let's do, I'm going to do a quick ad.

Okay, next up. Sticking in the AFC. Dolphins 30, Bills 13. This was our huh? Huh? Game of the week.

40:36The Bills. Are the Bills okay? Because they have now dropped three of their last five games. This was a stunner because it wasn't, yeah, there were some fumbles and everything, but it was just the Bills looked bad. They looked bad to start the game. They started the first half of their drive chart was three and out, turnover on downs, three and out, fumble, three and out. Like they just had nothing. They got back in the game for a minute, then another fumble. They just looked bad. They did, but this is what happens when you play the Miami Dolphins and you beat them seven times in a row. The last two times, the Bills had seven game winning streaks against the Dolphins, got snapped in the eighth game.

41:18Josh didn't look great today. He had that bad pick in the end zone. Then he had that scramble. I think that was in the fourth quarter off of a QB sneak that turned into like a 15-yard gain that then turned into a fumble. The Bills had a lot of chances to come back and win this game. Yeah. Like Tua gave him some opportunity. He had a bad pick today. Well, he didn't have a bad pick, actually, because Mike McDaniel said in the postgame he instructed Tua to throw the ball deep on third down on both of his picks today. I was actually really pumped. I told Tua on some third down calls to let it rip down the field and kind of act as an opportunity ball, act as a punt.

41:53So he's literally coaching him to throw picks now, which is genius because now you can't say Tua's playing bad when his coach is saying, hey, throw a pick. Yeah, I don't know. I think you should probably panic a little bit if you're a Bills fan. I think now is the exact right time to panic. Without a doubt. You should panic. Not only did you not get Waddle from the Dolphins, then they add insult to injury and beat you with Waddle. Yeah, they got shut out through three quarters. They had a 41-game streak where they had not been shut out through three quarters. By the way, I saw this stat. This was from Stat Hole.

42:25Do you know who has the current longest streak of not being shut out through three quarters? It's pretty crazy. It's the San Francisco 49ers, 259 games. It's like 15 years. That is crazy. Yeah. But they were just bad. They look a little bit off and broken right now. I don't know if that's a hangover from beating the Chiefs, which that game obviously means a lot. But it doesn't mean a lot anymore because you lost this game. Yeah, very frustrating. Yeah, that's the type of thing where it's like you feel like you have a big win against the Chiefs and that's going to help in seeding, and then you drop a game to the Dolphins who you beat 14 out of the last 15 times and you haven't lost to them by double digits in like 15 years.

43:12That was an ugly one. Yeah, you got your ass kicked by the Miami Dolphins today. If I'm a Bills fan, I'm definitely panicking a little bit. Maybe not a lot bit, but I'm definitely – the panic button's out and it's been pressed. Devon A. Chain is also still very fast and very, very good. He had 225 yards from scrimmage and two touchdowns. He's the man. You just forget every now and then like, oh, yeah, that guy is so much faster than everyone. Yeah, and the Bills, I don't know, man. I don't know what you do to fix this offense. It seems like nothing is working right now. Yeah, yeah. Nothing is working.

43:44I thought that their tight ends would rack off some yards today. Well, and Kincaid got hurt, I think, right? He got banged up. He left the game. That's not good. We talked to Chris Long about it on Friday when he was talking about how their ability to beat teams over the middle with their two tight ends is a huge, huge deal. But, yeah, he went out. He left the game with an injury. Hopefully, he's not injured for too long. But, yeah, the Bills are not in a good spot. Did you see the Dolphins celebrating in the laundry hampers after the game? They went surfing in the laundry hampers. It was pretty cool.

44:15Yeah. I mean, that shows that, like, because we should remember this for next year because we're going to get to the Jets game. Maybe bet on the teams that traded away good players because everyone overrates losing a player or two when the other guys in the locker room are probably going to rally around it being like, oh, look, they're giving up on us. Let's show them. And you got guys that are maybe making their first start in a long time. Yeah. Yeah. Trying to prove it in the league. But, yeah, Devon A. Shane, he's awesome. He is so, so good. And, yeah, I don't. Hank, you think the Bills are broken?

44:48No. Oh. Okay. They have a tough game against the Bucs. They didn't look good. If you watched the game today, you would say that's a broken. I'll say it. The Bills are broken. It was one of those games. The Bills have enough experience, though, where it's like as long as they make the playoffs, they're going to unbreak themselves and be ready to go. If I'm a Bills fan, I'm not full panic button. and you'd rather be the Bills than the Colts, even I'd say the Patriots. It's like that level of playoff experience matters at that point in the season. Maybe this is just what the Bills need, to go into the playoffs with no expectations.

45:22Yeah, or just a little bit. They're not going to win the division, so it's like, who cares? They're definitely not going to win the division. They just got to get in. No.

45:33So, congratulate yourself. Thank you. Congratulate yourself for the AFC East Championship. I will, thank you. to announce it. I just did. The Bills are not going to win the AFC East. The Miami Dolphins are not going to win the East. And the New York Jets are not going to win the AFC East. Say it. That would mean that. Say congratulations to yourself. The New England Patriots are going to win the AFC East. No, no, no. Say, we did it with the Colts just a second ago. We said congratulations to the Colts for winning the AFC South. I'm not. I'm just here. Well, you did just say that the Patriots are going to win the NFC or the AFC East.

46:08Yes, I believe that. What if they don't? Amish. And a cat. Yeah. Amish and a cat. Yeah, I think the bills are a little broken. I mean, three out of the last five games is not good. And again, if you look at what they've done, you know, they lost to the Patriots. They lost to the Falcons. They beat the Panthers, who will get to them. and then the big game against the Chiefs, but then they lose to the Dolphins. And before that, they struggled a little bit with the Saints. They struggled a little bit with the Dolphins. I don't know. It's just something feels a little off. The offense feels disjointed, and it shouldn't.

46:45I don't know. You think Joe Brady talking to some college teams? LSU. Maybe. Maybe another college. I don't know. But it does feel like this offense. There was a lot of Josh just kind of drifting back there. That one play he made. And making super spazzy plays. On the third and 16 where he just had to run a million yards to get a first down. Yeah. That's when you know it's not working. There's a lot of wild boy Josh Allen out there. And I thought the Dolphins were dead, but the Dolphins are just going to keep doing this where they're dead and they look so, so bad and then they spring up and win again.

47:15Yeah. I think they're going to do it a few more times. I'm super pumped that the Dolphins won this game, though, because the Commanders play against the Dolphins next week in Spain. That's enormous. And the fact that they won this, they might not even have work this week. Yeah, you're right. McDaniel might just be like, hey, tell you what. victory monday tuesday wednesday we're getting on a plate on thursday we're good see you back yeah okay anything else on this game stunner of the day this was easily the stunner of the day because it was it did feel like one of those games sitting in the gambling cave there was i heard the murmurs of like when should we live bet the dolphins i'm sorry when should we live bet the bills when should we live bet the bills and that opportunity never really came out i did live bet the bills oh you Yeah, because when I hear Nikki Smoke say, like, we got daddy, fuck you, Josh, and it's the third quarter, and it's still kind of a two-score game, at that point, I'm like, yeah, there's a bubble.

48:06Sir, there's a bubble. Yeah, that's my - The strippers have boats. Yeah, that's exactly what I was going for. I mistimed it. You missed some of those shots. Yeah, absolutely. Okay. Next up, Bears 24, Giants 20. Hoo boy. This was a hell of a game. This is - The gateway has been completed. I said it on this show. What was that face, Hank? It's kicked a mile out of bounds on the opening kickoff. Sorry. The gateway's been completed. I said it. Memes reposted it. I said, you're going to snap your fingers, and the Bears are going to be 5-4, 6-3, and this was when they were 0-2 and looked god-awful after getting absolutely killed by the Lions.

48:44So they did it. They did that part. This was the easiest part of their schedule. The things get very tough after this, but it was an awesome game for Caleb Williams again, where he just, he's, he's clutch. I don't know what else to say. He's clutch. Like he did not, I know that there'll be what ifs in this game because Jackson dart was a problem. He was phenomenal when he was in the game, he was running the ball everywhere, passing the ball. Like he had, they just couldn't every third down. It felt like the bears had no chance because Jackson dart was playing that well. He gets concussed. Russ comes in.

49:16So I understand the what ifs. You can also play the what ifs the other way, where if you're watching the game, DJ Moore drops an unbelievable pass by Caleb Williams like 40 yards down the field on the run. Zaccheaus drops a sure touchdown. Like there were moments where Caleb was making big plays. His receivers were not like catching the ball. And I thought that like the game, the Bears in the last couple of years or forever in these situations do not win these games. Caleb Williams has that clutch gene where they're down 10 with six minutes left. He goes on a 91-yard drive and then goes on a 53-yard drive, both touchdowns.

49:53And it's like, yeah, when the lights get bright and the back is against the wall, he comes up with big plays. Caleb's learned how to use his legs in a way where he just – it doesn't look like he's panicking as much as he did in the years past, where he gets on the run, starts scrambling. In the past, he'd run his way out of his own shoes or run his way into making a stupid throw. And now it's like he's slowed down by like 5%. Yeah. And he's thinking 5 % more, and it's making a big difference. The fact that Caleb didn't get sacked in this game, he was getting out of rushes that looked like he was absolutely doomed.

50:28Yeah, the pressure-to-sack ratio in this game has got to be tough to deal with for the Giants. Yeah, they were all over him, and it was awesome. So, yeah, I've talked about it at length. If you want, I think we're getting to the point, too, where you've got to have a conversation with people in your life because they're mad about the Bears because there are a lot of people who are mad about the Bears, and I'll be the first to say, have I said at any point in this season that we are a good team? I don't think I've heard that. I have not, and I'm not ready to say it yet because if you look at who the Bears have beaten, they've beaten the Cowboys, the Raiders, the Commanders, Saints, Bengals, and Giants.

51:02Those are six of the worst ten teams in the NFL right now. Yeah. So I'm not going to delude myself. We have a very tough schedule coming up. We've got to play the Vikings. We've got to play the Lions. We've got to play the Packers twice. So you got to play the Eagles, the Seahawks, the 49ers, the Steelers. It just goes on and on and on. But the gateway was all about getting to this point at 6-3 and 5-4 where you are basically guaranteed to play meaningful football in December. If the Bears can find a way to go whatever it is, 4-5 down the stretch, they can tread water and still be playing meaningful football for a team that has a lot of holes.

51:41Their defense is still bad. but the culture's changing and they're winning games that they normally wouldn't have won. And you can feel the belief and like the, the difference in the team and the locker room and the vibe. And that's Ben Johnson and offensive coordinator, James is a dunze. Yeah. First play of the game was to Rome, which, which he said afterward. Thanks dad. Thanks dad. But yeah, I appreciate that. I'm just excited. They're a fun team to watch. And Caleb is very fun in these pressure situations where when we are down late in the fourth quarter and Caleb has a ball, it's like we got a chance yeah whereas normally that's not the situation it was you know justin fields or mitch that was not the situation you did not feel like we had a chance and colson loveland he's kind of been unlocked a little bit yeah now should we have a conversation about the giants and what they are going to do yeah well they shouldn't have russell wilson as the backup that's disgusting that russell wilson comes into the game you had you had james doing everything on the sidelines praying with Russ.

52:41Yeah. The game, so the way this game went down, I was sitting there frustrated being like, this sucks. But again, I went into this game being like, I don't think the Bears are some great team, so you can lose to anyone. There's no given wins when you have a defense like the Bears have defensively. If you make a few mistakes, you're going to lose a game. The minute Russ came in, though, I was like, it's a must win. You can't lose to Russ now. Yeah. And he did have that screen pass that went for like 60 yards that was like, holy shit, we're about to lose to Russ. A dot. But he also had a few other Russ Wilson plays.

53:17Why isn't – it's malpractice. It doesn't make any sense. Listen, I like Brian Dable. The fact that he has Russ Wilson starting or coming in second off the bench instead of Jameis, it's malpractice as a coach. It makes zero sense. I think that's actually a worse mistake than losing four consecutive games where you have a lead by 10 or more points. Yeah, the Giants have lost. Their point differential in the fourth quarter alone is minus 47 on the season. Obviously, the Broncos game did a lot of heavy lifting there. They've given up 115 fourth quarter points. Yeah. 115. So in the Cowboys, Broncos, and Bears games, this is the Giants' winning percentage or, I guess, probability, win probability in the fourth quarter of those three games 92.3 percent against the cowboys 99.3 against the broncos 96.9 percent against uh against the bears not great like dable if he was about to get fired after the broncos game i i feel like this might be a bad week for brian dable yeah it feels like this is it's tough to come back from it is and his hope was that jackson dart was going to lift him out, which he might have done today because Jackson Dart ran the ball really well, played well.

54:36But without Dart, it's like, what use do we have for you, Brian? Yeah, yeah. So, yeah, the Giants are in. I mean, Jackson Dart, he was very impressive. The Giants have a guy in Jackson Dart. He was a problem, and the Bears did not have an answer to the problem of Jackson Dart for three quarters. Also, shout out C.J. Gardner-Johnson. And he's been awesome. I think he has three sacks and a forced fumble since coming to the Bears. And he's been everywhere. And Dennis Allen's been using him perfectly in a secondary that needs all the help it can get. I've just had six and three is fun. I'm in the point, too, where there's a lot of people angry, a lot of Packers fans angry.

55:20So also maybe Jaden Daniels fans angry, some Lions fans angry about the Bears being six and three. and I'm like in the Mad Men meme, like I don't even think about you at this point because I'm just enjoying 6-3. Yeah. And it's probably not going to last, but I'm enjoying 6-3 and the opportunity to play some meaningful football in December. Yeah, 6-3 is a great set of numbers to see next to your team name. Yeah. So this, by the way, you want to hear a sad stat? Yeah. This is the first time since October 13, 2024, over a year ago, that the Badgers and Bears both won on the same weekend. Combined, I was 11-24 since October 13, 2024.

56:05First good football weekend since pre-Halloween last year. To have a Saturday and a Sunday of joy. That was fun. I enjoyed football this weekend. I had a good time. And I love Caleb. And he's fucking... That run that he had, not the touchdown run, the run before that set up the touchdown to go down three, he's just – guys can't bring him down. He just finds angles. Yeah, I mean – He's just moving around. In the fourth quarter, to do what he's done this season, I would have a lot of confidence in him. Yeah, it's fun to watch. And the defense needs to – it's going to be a problem when we play really explosive offenses and teams that can take advantage of it because you don't know how long you can – Like, I'm bracing myself for a very bad Black Friday with the Eagles in Philadelphia.

56:55Yeah. Because I just know. I don't think if you're like, hey, do you think the Bears are on par with the top of the NFC? The answer is no. Do you have any primetime games? That one. And then I think that's it. I think that's it. I think we, I know we play, we play at Minnesota next week. That's going to be a big test, too, because Caleb has not done well against the division. Yeah. obviously last year was a bad we were on a bad team he was on a bad team but you have nine or sunday night football nine or sunday night football so that could and then the packers and the lions at the end of the year also oh yeah because that's the ones the sat packers is saturday game so that's a standalone game i think that's the the game yeah that's a saturday game and then the black friday game against the eagles which will be on whatever streaming that lions could be flexed at the end of the season too i don't see it's gonna be fun we have a gauntlet schedule coming up there's no there's no gimmies there's every game i would say i'd say we're probably going to be underdogs in every game against the except for the browns that looks yeah that's i mean home against home against the sealers maybe maybe depending on if you beat the if you beat the vikings whose line is it anyway what's the vikings bears line next week uh vikings three On DraftKings.

58:10Vikings by three? I would say Vikings minus one and a half. On the DraftKings sportsbook, it is Vikings minus three. Oh, so there you go. So, yeah, we're not going to be favored in any games except maybe the Browns game. Who will be favored in the Browns game? Oh, you like the Hungry Dog there? is the hungry dog still alive no oh 49ers ah shit yeah we'll see i'm i'm excited six and three feels good and it bothers people. People have to have a conversation because they – I think that – wouldn't you say, PFT, you can't be accused of being a fraud team if you kind of know that this is what it is.

58:51We're 6-3, but we've beaten bad teams, and there's going to be some tough games coming up. No one's putting the Bears at the top of their power rankings. I think that to be considered a fraud team, if you've been blowing out the bad teams, then you could be a fraud. And be at the top of power rankings. Yeah, yeah. Like, oh, you're a top five team in the NFL. No one's got the Bears as a top five team. You're in dogfights. You're coming back. So that way it's tough to really overrate you. Yeah. So hopefully the dogfights continue and hopefully we can, you know, like I said, six and three. You're going to be, Bears are going to be in the hunt at least until mid-December.

59:23For fans of historically losing franchises, being at this point in the year and just seeing a record that's above 500 is just such a breath of fresh air. It feels awesome. We're 17th on the ESPN Power Rankings. fuck ESPN dude when are we going to get this figured out what the fuck tomorrow's got to be a turning it has to be although they got kind of they got kind of bodied by how good Penn State Indiana was they did I don't even miss whatever game was on I think it was Texas Tech BYU but if they didn't if they didn't bring it back after dancing with the stars now you've really reached like a hundred percent of the critical mass yeah yeah that's true but last Monday was a stinker tomorrow's going to be make or break time.

1:00:05Yeah. Because I feel like a lot of people probably will cave. If people can stay strong tomorrow, though, then. Stay strong. Yeah. Stay strong. You're going to get a bunch of people from Philly that maybe didn't know that their YouTube TV didn't work for that game that are going to be very upset. My mom sent our family a group text this morning being like, first of all, it's bullshit that coming off of a bye, I still have to wait another day to watch the Eagles. Yeah. Which I agree with. and then she said second of all ESPN better figure this out so I can watch tomorrow. Yeah, hey ESPN you remember what happened to Hitchbot?

1:00:38Yeah. Think about what they can do to you. I have cable so I can still watch it but the, I tried to like watch it on the ESPN app on my TV and they wouldn't let me watch it. Yeah because it sucks loading. It's like you don't have this service. I'm like how do I not have this service? You have to pay more. It's a separate thing. But I have, I bought ESPN Like it's crazy You have to sign in with your provider I did It's crazy I swear to god Sass said and I believe him He said that ESPN is making people pay$15 extra a month For sound on Red Zone So greedy Is that crazy Max is processing the joke And nope He's got nothing I love Caleb Williams That's my final thought Ravens 27, Vikings 19.

1:01:30Ravens are back. Fully back. Fully, fully back. Fully back. Great game. It was Harbaugh's first win in Minnesota. Now he's won in every single NFL city. Okay. That's a nice one. Yeah, he collected all of them. Yeah, Derrick Henry didn't have the best game, if you go by the stats, but he was still running the ball pretty effectively. Lamar ran the ball effectively. He had that nice, was that a fourth down that he converted with his legs? a little like fake tush push pitch out to Lamar uh yeah the Ravens are fully back and it's their defense it really is their defense because before they went on this little turnaround after the bye week their defense was one of the worst in the NFL and it seems like maybe they fixed that now is that they fixed it or was it J.J.

1:02:12McCarthy just air mailing a couple interceptions well I don't know one of those games so the stats are the first five weeks of the season the Ravens were giving up 35.4 points per game the last four games they also had uh they had two turnout two two takeaways in that time the last four games they've had eight takeaways and they're giving up 14 and a half points a game and you could say yeah jj mccarthy you know rookie quarterback one of those games was against the rams who are one of the best teams in the nfl and they had they had what's named cooper rush playing quarterback so they they have not given up in last four games they have not letting an opponent score more than 20 points yeah that's pretty good the ravens feel like they are back and their offense was a little slow to start today and yes the fumble on the kickoff did kind of that was i don't know if if they i think someone has a chart where it's like the most consequential like plays in a game that has to be up there because it was 12 to 10 ravens the vikings fumbled the kickoff then all of a sudden it's 1910 ravens but still the Ravens are back.

1:03:14Yeah, so in the three losses that Lamar has this season, the defense has given up at least 37 points in those three. What were the stats that you just said? Was it only three touchdowns allowed? They have... The Ravens, in the first five games of the season, gave up 35 points a game. In the last four games, they've given up 14 points a game. They have not let an opponent score more than 20 points in the last four games. Yeah, they've only given up three touchdowns On defense. Now, when it comes to special teams and tournaments, that's different. But since the bye week, they've only given up three touchdowns on defense.

1:03:49It seems like they fixed it. And today, Derrick Henry also shattered another record. In a long list of records, he finally broke his high school rushing record. Oh, let's go. So 10 seasons into the NFL, he now has over 12 ,124 yards. His high school career rushing yards in four seasons, 12 ,124 yards. So he finally did it. I also don't know if that was the right recipe for the Vikings in terms of J.J. McCarthy throwing it 42 times. I don't think that it is, and I don't think it's the right recipe for Jettas either. He seems like he's starting to check out a little bit. Both of the interceptions thrown by J.J.

1:04:31McCarthy were targeting Justin Jefferson. Yeah, targeting loosely. Yeah, one of them was really bad. The other one was kind of like they got tangled up. but yeah 42 times passing the ball 18 times running the ball for the vikings and they average 5.7 yards per pass attempt and 6.7 yards per rush attempt that feels screwy it does well also at the end of the game when jj was taken off a little bit like it was against more of a you mean nine yeah when nine was well no that wasn't nine today i think it was still not no this is nine is when he wins nine is in the fourth quarter when he wins a game he was he was getting a lot of looks where he could just take off with his feet and try to get a first down so i think some of those rushing yardage but you're right the overlying point which is that they just need to pound the fucking rock and let him throw for 170 yards yeah let jj be jj let jj be nine let jj be nine yeah let him be nine let him do his thing yep the ravens are so back though this is we we all credit to us no yeah we didn't we didn't fall for it no we did not fall for it they they are gonna be just fine if you could actually point to where the Ravens were back was probably when Snoop Huntley beat the Bears.

1:05:41That was a must win with Lamar still out. Yeah. And winning that game propelled them to they're now one game away from being back to 500 and they play the Browns and the Jets and the Bengals their next three games. They've got a great schedule coming up. Great schedule. Get the Steelers twice. They have the Patriots still. Yeah. Hank, mark it right now. Are you guys going to bench your starters at that point? December 21st? That's week 16. No. So what's the spread going to be? In Baltimore. Baltimore minus two and a half. Okay. Jot it down. Okay. Okay. Are you afraid of the Ravens? Again, I think, like, Ravens, Bills, Chiefs are all teams I would not, like I'd be pretty scared to play in the playoffs, and I feel like they would have an edge over us just because they have so much playoff experience.

1:06:36And the Ravens and Bills, they're fighting for their lives in the playoffs. They know they've been there. They've kind of choked. They haven't gotten to where they think they need to go. They're going to be gunning for everything, and they're not going to maybe feel the pressure the way the Patriots would. So Ravens, Bills, and Chiefs are the three teams that scare me, to your point earlier. Do you think that Kevin O 'Connell actually played scout team Lamar this week? Was that the rumor? He said that he was going to do it. He might have been joking, but I think he might have done it. That's one of those ones that I bet you Kevin O 'Connell feels like he's got a little psycho to him.

1:07:15I think that's fair to say. That he says it as a joke to the media to cover his ass in case any of the media, like, during one of the practice sessions catches him doing it. Yep. And they're like, he's getting ahead of it because you don't want to have a situation where the media is like, Like, hey, we saw you running around with a jersey on. What the fuck was that? He just let everyone know and then laughed a little so that they'd be like, ha-ha, he's joking. No, no, no, he did it. He might also say that and then hear the media being like, he's clearly joking because he can't be Lamar. And then he's like, I'll show them.

1:07:48Yeah. I'll fucking show them. I got this. I got this. Yeah, the Ravens are back. If you're someone who buried them, maybe I don't know. I'm trying to think if we ever said anything. I think a lot of people knew not to bury them. You can't. Because, yes, the defense was terrible to start the year. Guess what? Their defense to start the year last year was awful, too. Yeah. They just... Then they fix it. They fix it. They make a few tweaks. You get Malachi Starks picking off balls. It all looks different. Yeah. Okay. Let's pause for an ad, and then we'll do the last three games from the morning slate.

1:08:22We'll get back to the games in a second. They're brought to you by our great friends over at Pepsi. Food deserves Pepsi because Pepsi brings the flavor. Pepsi makes those flavors pop.

One slice of cheese pizza and a can of wild cherry Pepsi. That's it. I love that. Yeah, I was trying to, you know, looking for something to get fired up before this recording. I got a Pepsi. Pepsi got you fired up. Fired up.

1:08:54Nothing goes better with hot pizza, hot wings, hot takes from Hank than Pepsi. We should get pizza for dinner. You want to get pizza for dinner? Yeah. Yeah. Pizza and Pepsi for dinner? Pizza and Pepsi for dinner. Yeah, Monday night. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Two nights in a row? Yeah, we're going to be together. Yeah, we're streaming Monday night. Yeah. Pepsi. Pepsi pizza. Pepsi pizza. All right, twice in a row. I love it. I love Pepsi. I love eating food. Guess what I like doing at the same time? Eating food and drinking Pepsi. If you have any of these foods, you know, you're going to want a Pepsi going alongside of it.

Davis Mills is a certified Jaguars killer. He is. So if you look at his career, Davis Mills is 6-19 as a starter. Half of his wins, three of them, have come against the Jaguars.

1:10:43I was thinking about it. How weird is it? Like, it doesn't get talked about enough that Davis Mills, essentially, he was drafted in the third round by the Texans. He was given pretty much two full years to be a starter, proved that he was not good enough to be a starter, and then just stayed with the Texans. I like that, though. That doesn't happen. Like, everywhere else, if you draft a guy and he doesn't work out, he's gone. I think that Davis Mills, when he got the starting gig, he was just like, I'm just, I know I'm a backup. I got backup DNA. Oh, yeah, I like it, too. He basically just said, yeah, I'm just going to be the backup for the Texans for the next 10 years.

1:11:20Like, I'm good with that. How tall is he? 6 '5", 6 '6"? With the neck? With the neck. 6 '7"? Neck included? 6 '8"? Yeah. I mean, he just... Giraffe. Yeah. Listen, being a backup quarterback for one franchise is not a bad gig to have. Yeah. He didn't have any aspirations of doing anything else. I respect that. I was just trying to think about it. Like, does that... I'm just trying to, like, jog my memory. Usually, yeah, they might stick around for a year or two, but, like, they usually will go somewhere else and the team will be like, all right, we're going to find someone else because it's kind of awkward.

1:11:47You were the starter, now you're the backup. But it's like, yeah. Yeah. I don't think that Davis Mills did anything when he was the starter for him to realistically say, you know what? I deserve a shot. Yeah. Yeah. He's very self-aware. But he was awesome. And this game was crazy because with 133 left in the third quarter, the Jaguars go up 29-10. They have a long drive to go up 29-10. Game over. Game over. Except for you forgot about Davis Mills because in the fourth quarter, fourth quarter alone, he had three total touchdowns two passing one running yeah and it was yeah i mean they were they were driving they were down 29 10 in the fourth quarter with davis mills driving and he ends up with like over 100 yards passing in the fourth quarter alone and they forgot about davis mills and the texan season while on life support survives another day because this was a game where if they lost this and go to three and six it's pretty much over now they can get cj stroud back and they can maybe fight and scratch and claw to try to get that last seed in the afc especially because right now the owner of that seed is the jacksonville jaguars so i was thinking about this and i i believe that the difference between three and seven and four and six is the biggest one game swing possible so it would have been four it would have been three and six or four and five okay so now it's now we're at four and five yeah yeah okay four and five all right four and five very much still alive i think uh it's well the looking at the afc it's basically right now if you had to kick someone out i would say it's the steelers we'll talk about that game at the end but it would be the steelers but it would be kicked out for the ravens right and then the chiefs you would think would find a way in and the Jaguars would be out, but I don't know.

1:13:38Who knows? I mean, there's a lot of football left. There's a lot of football left, and there's a steep fall off. Basically, the Texans have survived to not fall into the Bengals and below division. Yeah, because there's like a there's a there's a 11 through 16 in the AFC that is just OK. Season's over and they stay. They staved off being in that section for another week. Yeah, their defense is good enough to keep them in it, and their offense is – if the Browns had the Texans' offense, they would find themselves in a similar situation from where the Texans are right now. Their offense is serviceable enough if you keep them outside of the five-yard line where it becomes just impossible for them to score.

1:14:19And it was actually very smart what they did at the end. They took a couple penalties to back them up to the 14, and then they were able to score on offense to take the lead. The 29-10 deficit that you're talking about, That's actually the biggest blown lead in Jaguars history, which I would have thought that they were capable of blowing a much bigger lead. Just regular season? Oh, no, that was the Chargers who blew to the Jaguars. Chargers blew that lead to the Jaguars. Yeah, but the Jaguars, I guess, just haven't had huge leads that frequently to blow. But it's the second biggest comeback in Texans history that they had here.

1:14:52The touchdown as time expired. That was a bit unnecessary for a lot of people at home that were watching that game. I understand. I feel your pain. I feel like, though, the Jaguars were, for the most part, it was a pick-em where the Jaguars were minus one and a half. So I don't think, unless I, I mean, I bet the Jaguars right before the game and it was a pick-em. I think earlier in the week before they announced the Davis Mills. Oh, okay. So, yeah, that's, you know, yeah. Yeah, I think it was like one and a half points for a few people. But I know the Jaguars were minus one and a half from Wednesday on.

1:15:24Daniil Hunter was insane. Will Anderson is insane. They had two and a half sacks just in the fourth quarter alone. And this is the Jaguars just have only themselves to blame for this because they were completely controlling this game and they went into turtle mode. They went run run pass on three three and outs in the fourth quarter that took a total of three minutes. Like I don't understand it. Just keep playing your offense. Keep trying to win the game. don't just run the ball up the middle and then get into a third and long incomplete pass punt, which is what they did on two consecutive possessions in the fourth quarter.

1:16:03That's how you let a team come back down 19. So D 'Amico Ryan said to amp his team up for this game showed his squad a video of a boxer who dislocated his shoulder and still knocked his opponent out on Saturday night. Can we figure out what boxer that was? Who dislocated their shoulder? I mean, it seems like it's big-time Nate Diaz vibes. He didn't box. He didn't box. I know, but he's a fighter that would do something like that. I got to figure out who this boxer was that he showed the clips of. Danny Williams. Yeah, Danny Williams. So it was a Danny Williams hype-up here. Mark Potter in 2000.

1:16:40After dislocating his right arm, he fought with one arm for two rounds before landing a knockout blow with his left uppercut. That's pretty good. All right, so that got the boys amped up. Yeah. And, yeah, the Texans, they're definitely still alive. I mean, the Jaguars being 5-4 and in that 7 spot right now, that looks like the team that... They're just holding it for the Chiefs? They're hanging on to it, yeah. Though, who threw it out there? Memes, did you say that maybe the Chiefs won't make the playoffs? I did. You want to stand on that? Sure. Chiefs won't make the playoffs. Oh, you're saying the Chiefs won't make the playoffs.

1:17:12Yeah, there's a lot of teams. There are a lot of teams. You're absolutely right. There are a lot of teams. And after what Chris Long said, they don't have the pass rush. They don't have linebackers. They do have Patrick Mahomes. Did you forget about Patrick Mahomes? Trevor Lawrence. He is a quarterback. He's a quarterback. He certainly is. Lamar Jackson. Also was unfair at the end of this game with the shadows and the sun. The Jaguars had like 17 seconds, which I wish they had been able to attempt a kick. because Cam Little obviously has the record from last week. They basically had to do the entire 17 seconds just directly in this one patch of sun.

1:17:59Yeah, it was so bright. That was so mean. Like, I don't know how you operate. They got to think about something with this sun situation. We had a sun problem in the NFL. Yeah. For sure. Maybe it's just a Texas sun problem. Yeah. I don't know. If you got a different way to design. Isn't, yeah, NRG Stadium, you got a roof. Let's use our roofs, guys. Let the sun go. Yeah, stop with the windows. Put some curtains up. Yeah, I don't like it. That's one of those things, though, that if you... Although I do feel that if the sun is at your back, that probably adds, like, five yards to the kick. That is one of those things that the curtains in...

1:18:32If they put up curtains in Houston or... I know they have curtains in Dallas. Like, I bet you those curtains cost, like,$300 ,000. Something ridiculous. Oh, to have a curtain big enough to knock out? Yeah, like, some outrageous price. It's like, damn, that's a lot of money for curtains. It's like, just give me a bed sheet and some duct tape. I'll handle it. But if any NFL owner could build something to block out the sun, it would be Jerry Jones. Absolutely. He would do that. Absolutely. Yeah, so Texans still alive and the Jaguars, they're just frustrating. I mean, for Jaguars fans especially. I still don't know if the Jaguars are good.

1:19:06I don't think that they're good. I'm willing to say it. I don't think they're good either. I think that they are like a slightly below average team. I think their good looks great and their bad. Well, it's just basically the Chiefs. They won their Super Bowl and they beat the Chiefs on Monday Night Football. Yeah. It's kind of been all bad. They've lost three out of four since that moment. Now, it was against some very good teams in the Seahawks and Rams, but they just blew a 19-point lead and needed overtime to beat the Raiders. So, yeah, I'm going to say not good. I think that their bad is worse than their good is good.

1:19:43their bad is worse yeah and their good is good yeah they're like they're good is okay and they're bad is dog shit yeah they have the chargers next they're gonna now yeah chargers outdoors i don't know they i mean they could still make the playoffs and not be very good there's a lot of teams that's the seven spot feels that way in both conferences Okay, here's a team that could make the playoffs. Jets 27, Browns 20. Are we believing memes? No, they're not making the playoffs. This was a culture. I would say this is a culture win. For the culture. For the culture. This was what we were saying earlier.

1:20:25You trade guys away and everyone assumes that everyone's giving up and the team has no chance. The Jets prove that, hey, the culture. We're building the culture. Aaron Glenn, we're going to be a team that we're proud of. Maybe not right now, but soon. Yeah, soon. Ish. Soon-ish. Ish. This is a good win, though, Memes. Special teams. Special teams. Incredible. Special teams stepped up. 99-yard kick return and then a 74-yard punt return. The Jets had 62 total yards of offense in the first half and were tied 17-17. Pretty good. Their offense was not good, but it doesn't matter. Credit to Justin Field.

1:21:05He spread the ball around. He didn't complete more than one pass to a single receiver today. Still got a win. Pretty crazy. Will McDonald was a terror. Will McDonald was very good. Jermaine Johnson was very good. Defense tackles were very good. We lost our starting corner. He's a rookie almost immediately. So I thought we were going to be in big trouble. But defense stayed strong. Defense stayed strong. And Brees Hall is awesome still. He's still a very good player. He took that screen. So Justin Fields was 6 for 11 for 54 yards, and 42 of them were on a screen pass to Brees Hall. Yeah, it was a 42-yard touchdown pass.

1:21:45It was a dot. So he had 12 yards other than that, 5 for 10 for 12 yards. Listen, Justin Fields is just there to manage the game. Why aren't we taking his under on every game? All right, he's just managing the game. Why aren't we taking his unders every game? I guess I'm saying no. It's all right. Wouldn't do that. Why? I would only do that if they play a top 10 defense. Okay. Fair. Fair. So, Broncos were two. Browns were three. Okay. That's actually very fair. Yeah. They played the Patriots on Thursday. They're top 10 defense. So, I would take it under. Unders. Unders. What happens if you win on Thursday?

1:22:22Oh, man. It's on. What happens if you win on Thursday? I wouldn't let us win on Thursday. Oh! You wouldn't? I just wouldn't. You wouldn't do it? But you don't want – if the Jets win on Thursday, things could be happening. Things could be happening. I don't think they're going to happen. Whose line is it anyway on Thursday? I know what it is. I know what it is as well. Oh. Let's see. Where's the game? Foxborough. In Foxborough. I'm going to say Patriots by – I'm going to say – Eight and a half. I'm going to say – Eleven? Ten and a half. Ten and a half. Okay. I like the Jets memes. I wouldn't want to see you guys win.

1:23:05Whoa, Hank, that was a mean laugh. P.O.T.'s a hater. I like it. It makes me laugh how sad you are now. I'm not a hater of the Patriots. Oh, yeah. Okay. That is a lie. Oh, no, I'm a hater of you. Yeah, okay. It's completely – it has nothing to do with the team. Transitive property, you're a hater of the Patriots. That's an accurate use of transitive property, yeah. You're a hater of Gaz and Hank. They're one and the same. Hank did nothing, and he acts like the history of success in Boston sports is because of him. I do not think that. I didn't say that you thought that. I said you act like it. We've now watched this kick return 75 times.

1:23:46Max says, I'm just leaving it up for memes. Hank, I just want to see memes. That was a mean laugh what you did. PFT makes me laugh. PFT is a confirmed funny guy. I want memes to be happy. I do, too. not on Thursday. Yeah. No, but the way PFC said, I like the Jets. It just made me laugh. I do. Well, per my metrics, funny comment. I had the Patriots at eight and a half points. Favorite turns out it's 10 and a half. I look ipso facto. Mathematically. I like the Jets. We need to start tracking our, for my power, our, our power rankings versus how the games end up going. Wonder if we're ever like, if there's anything to it, the gut reaction.

1:24:26Cause I do that. Sometimes we're on a Sunday night. Yeah. After he finishes the show, I'll go down the entire card for the next week and be like, here's what I think, and then wait three or four days and then just flip them all. Just go gut reaction because you're just stupid, you know? Do we think that this was a good coaching job by Aaron Glenn today? Let's say yes. Yeah. Yeah, wins a win. Yeah, because the Browns fucking stink. Teams were 225-0 when holding their opponents to 175 or fewer yards and not turning the ball over going into today. And the Jets are now that one team that won. That's an impressive win.

1:25:05I guess you've got to say that's an impressive win. Defying all odds. All odds. Yeah, and I think they did everything to lose this game. Not special teams. Not special teams, but I'm saying they traded their two best players on defense. They left Justin Fields in the entire game, and they ended up winning. They should have lost that game. I like how one of the data points is they left their starting quarterback in for the entire game. They've pulled him for less. I know. It's true. Today was a tough day to be a Justin Fields supporter besides that one, that dot to Bree Saul for 42 years. Win is a win.

1:25:40It is crazy that he didn't complete more than one pass to any receiver on the team. No, as soon as he threw that interception, he was never throwing again. Yeah. And he also threw one. Garrett Wilson ended up limping. I think you just have to shut him down for the rest of the season. Yeah. Was that a soft benching? Not a soft benching. He had a dislocated knee from the Broncos game. I think he re-heard it. I think he just got to shut him down. Dislocated knee sounds so bad. The Browns. I've said this a couple weeks ago, but it is just the same story every single week for the Browns. In their losses, and I'll do it again real quick, these are their losses.

1:26:20At halftime, down four, lost by one. At halftime, down seven, lost by 24. At halftime, down 13, lost by 24. At halftime, up three, lost by four. Halftime, down three, lost by 14. At halftime, down two, lost by 19. At halftime today, tied, lost by seven. It's the same story every single week for the Browns. They're competitive for a half of football, and then they lose the game. And they just can't. Dylan Gabriel, he is their – Kevin Svansky said, we're going to stick with Dylan Gabriel. I think it's just tank-a-thon. They're going to probably take another quarterback. And Myles Garrett just continues to be frustrated.

1:27:00But guess what, Myles Garrett? You did take the money, so you can't really say anything. You had the fork in the road where you demanded a trade, and if you had just stuck with it, you probably would have gotten a trade. Instead, you took the money. And I do think that the Browns probably should have traded him. Yeah, probably. I don't think that that – Myles Garrett's going to be upset and frustrated for probably the rest of his career in Cleveland. and the Browns aren't going to take advantage of having the best defensive player in the league on their team. Yeah. So, yeah, I don't know why that ended up not happening.

1:27:31Yeah. I don't know why, like what changed Miles Garrett's tune besides just a shitload of money. A lot of money. That they had. Also, shout out Max B. Max B at the game today. Yeah. Max B was in the office on Friday. Recurring guest. Shout out Max B. Yeah, Max B was here doing an office tour. And then he was at the game. Shout out Max B. Really? real awls will know the max b max b confusion all the time yeah max b you're pumped max b got freed we did it i love max b yeah shout out max b we've been trying to free him for what nine years he's been he's been in jail since i was like 15 what do you do murder oh well i don't know do we really want to free him like he's robbery gone bad like real murder he killed someone Robbery gone bad.

1:28:21Robbery gone bad is a little different than murder. A robbery that led to a murder. Okay. Was he the one? He was an accomplice. Okay, so are we happy he's freed? I'm a fan of his music. I'm excited. Zach, happy he's freed? Yeah. I think you did get to society and get back to your family. Yeah. And get back to the Jets game. He was at the Jets game like four hours after he got freed. Someone said that should be a parole violation. no I think that should that should count for time served no getting out of jail and going straight to the Jets and Brown should be a parole violation that shows that you're still sick in the head you should be able to serve time at MetLife Stadium it's like it's like Brooks and Shawshank being like he basically said he can't live without jail so he wanted to go back to jail the Browns vs.

1:29:12Jets at MetLife imagine escaping jail and you crawl through a sewer system and then you just pop up on the sidelines of this game. Yeah. Shout out John Fanta. Yeah. Our guy, Johnny Fanta. God bless everybody that was at this game. Memes, I look. It was actually a pretty kind of fun game to watch. It was. Two kick returns is as thrilling as thrilling gets. It was fun. The Jets are the most exciting team. Most exciting team. Most exciting team. Power rankings two times a week. I look through the schedule, Memes. If you only lose one game for the rest of the season, you're not dead. Let's go, Memes.

1:29:44Not dead. I mean, it's dead. I want the number one pick. Well, can we look at Tankathon? Because this will be a big game when it comes to Tankathon. You probably shouldn't have won this game. Right? No, no. They can still win this game. All right. You're five right now. The Browns are four. The Titans are one. So the Titans are key. They are key. Because you could trade up to the Titans. Yeah, because they're not going to need a quarterback. No, so Titans need a hold. And the Saints don't need a quarterback. And the Giants. And the Jets play the Saints. Okay, so that will be a big tank-a-thon game.

1:30:25And Cleveland plays Tennessee. What about the Raiders? Cleveland plays the Raiders. Oh, you got this all set up. I want the number one pick. When it was 14-14, it turned into a must-lose for me. Who are you taking with the number one pick? I think Fernando. Yeah. Because he said he's willing to die on the field for his teammates. Yeah, he's good. He's good. He's clutch. That throw he made was so sick. Dante Moore. I heard Tom McShay say he's going back to Oregon. Oh, Ty Simpson's too bad. He can't come out. He can't come out yet. I think he's a sophomore, a sophomore. He says junior. Oh, he is.

1:31:01Oh, he can come out. Wait, the way college, the way the college is set up right now, everybody could just go back. Mock draft 2026. what is it can we it's probably gonna be mendoza bain oh no ty simpson can't come out i'm sorry yeah yeah you're right though guys can if if you don't want to get drafted somewhere and you're a really good quarterback you can come back for 10 million dollars yeah you make you make so much more than you would in the nfl i mean not if you're top not if you're top if you're the number one pick but yeah it would be yeah i mean and you also get to be in college that's sick i'm just getting paid 10 million dollars to be in college i would die but then there's the other side to it like nussmeyer drew all or who who stayed and then their stock just tanked true good point good point okay last game of the early slate we have saint 17 panthers 7 they forgot about tyler shock massive day for the saints Every other team in the NFC South lost.

1:32:08Tyler Shuck looked serviceable. Drew Brees got hired by Fox. Yep. Big day for Saints fans. I mean. Enjoy it. The Panthers should not have been favored. No. Probably against anyone. Never make them the favorite ever again. The Panthers fans were booing the Panthers, which I think is actually ridiculous. They're 5-5. Yeah, but that just means the standards change. I guess so. Culture change. Very quick to change the standard. Culture change, yeah. But yeah, Tyler Shuck was – I like the way he throws the ball. You know what he does? Something about Tyler Shuck, he throws a catchable ball. You know what he does?

1:32:42He deals. Yeah. He was dealing a little bit today. But there's something about – it's like a soft ball. It's not that he doesn't have a strong arm. It's just that he throws like a beautiful catchable ball. And he was – yeah, he was moving around in the pocket through for – he hit 282 yards, two touchdowns. First New Orleans rookie to win a game since 1981. Yeah, it's crazy, isn't it? Nuts. And, yeah, we should just never, ever let the Panthers be favorites ever again. I also was upset because as soon as this game kicked off, I was like, damn, I wish I had known that the Saints were wearing their Stormtrooper uniforms because those uniforms are the best.

1:33:22I love they're all whites. The white helmets, pretty solid. Yeah, those are sick. You can't overlook anybody in the NFL if you're the Panthers. No. You can't. Yeah, you're still the Panthers. Yeah, you're the Panthers. Let's remember that. Now, does Meow Mix come back after a loss? I feel like now's the time to re-enter. Yeah. But think about it. The Panthers just went to Lambeau and beat the Packers, who have Super Bowl aspirations, then lost to the worst team in the NFC. Yeah. That's the life of the Panthers. It's almost like that win last week. If they could take it back, they might. Yeah. Because this game hit more.

1:33:56Or it just means the Packers fucking suck. Have you thought about that? I hadn't put that into my brain yet. No. Nope, I would like to. I'd love for that to be a reality. You think they fucking suck? Yeah, we're going to find out tonight, but yeah. Okay. Go Barrett. They could maybe suck. This was also a game where the Saints had a very good game plan of being like, hey, you know what we're not going to do is let Rico Dattle beat us. Let's let Bryce Young beat us. And Bryce Young could not, in fact, beat him. Nope, it's a good strategy overall. Very good strategy. Rico Dattle, he did do a touchdown celebration where he acted like he was going to do pumps.

1:34:31did zero pumps nice he just froze up no pumps uh by the way he just soaked i know that i was accidentally stumbled upon this on friday and i was wrong but juan johnson had a touchdown 92 yards that's what he does that's what he does that's what he does usually gets two more of them yeah i was like holy shit look at that juan johnson i might pick him up uh did you see did we talk about the bryce young fortune cookie uh no he kind of he took a page from jalen hurts last week. He said, you don't rise to the level of the occasion. You fall back to the level of your training going into this game. That does sound like some JV Jalen Hurts stuff.

1:35:08What was Jalen Hurts' one? Jalen Hurts had a crazy one last week. He had an insane one. I was waiting for you to bring it up. It was such a fortune. It was actually I actually think he's now in on the joke. Although I heard, was there a story Max, that Jalen Hurts went to Saquon's party and then had a guy holding his coat for him. He paid a guy to hold his coat for him the entire time. I love that. That's like something that you would hear Prince do. I did not hear about that. Like I went to a party at the Prince Estate. Yeah. Paisley Park. And there was somebody just standing behind Prince the entire time holding a cape in case he wanted it.

1:35:44Did you? You live life forward, but you learn it backwards. Yeah. I think that is a. That is such a fortune cookie. I think that's a Kierkegaard quote. I don't fucking know I don't know You just said a name that I've never heard of Learn it dude Kierkegaard I think Who is that It's a restaurant Is that what you just said Hank A restaurant No you've got it confused with the tequila guy Hank Don Quixote I think I gotta read that book Don Quixote You would love Don Quixote Oh book report Hank This dude hated windmills so much Hank You love him. Book report. Yeah. Kierkegaard. Life can only be understood backwards, but it must be lived forwards.

1:36:30Ah, it's a book, right? Don Quixote. And it's Kila and a play. The man of La Mancha. I'm going to read the book. You are not going to read the book. I'm going to read the book. I mean, can we just let's have the hard CJ Stroud hard conversations. You are not going to read that book. I will read the book. I think you are not. You can't even say without laughing. I will. Dude, you're not going to read that. What if I do? You won't. What if I do? It doesn't matter. You're not. I actually don't think you can read five pages of that book. What the fuck does that mean? You know exactly what it means.

1:37:09We're not book readers. I'm capable of reading. Yes, you know how to read? I didn't say you can't read. If you read the entire book, cover to cover, every single word, I will wipe the debt. Okay. Wait, no. He's got to also beat you in golf. no that way we can double down later on that and a book report what you will do is you will look up the shortest YouTube summary Hank you admit that you didn't read books when you had to read books I used to read when I was a kid I read that Game of Thrones book no I read all the Henry Potter books Lord of the Rings I think it's been a decade since I've read a book The Outsiders I read Mark Titus' fucking book oh there you go There's no one better in the world than starting books.

1:37:54That was a ricochet shot. No. That seemed pretty mean towards Mark Titus. No, that's not a ricochet shot at all. It's a bestseller, isn't it? I read it as an adult. Yeah. No, my brother got it from me for Christmas. I read it. The whole thing. Yeah. I read Mark Titus' book. Hank, why don't we put that in our book, your book report on Don Quixote? That would be great. Okay. You can read a book. I will. Yeah, that will be the chapter. Hank reads a book. Told you. There's zero percent chance you read the entire book. This is crazy. It's not crazy. You're not going to read it. Hank, you won't read it.

1:38:27Okay. What's the book? This might actually. You saying you're going to read that book. I actually, there was a moment where last year around this time in the back of my head. This is book reading time. No, no, no. Let me follow along here. In the back of my head last year, I was like, maybe there's a chance Hank can dunk. and we just all have been doubting him. I don't even have that feeling about you reading a book. All right, here's the thing about Don Quixote, Hank, is this is over a thousand pages. Yeah, it was written in... A thousand pages? You didn't know that, did you? It was written in two parts.

1:39:07It's a two-part novel. It was written in... Have you read it? 1605. No, fuck no, Evan. It's going to be all kinds of weird words and shit. Yeah, old English. Oh, you're so fucked. There's no chance you would read this book. Stay tuned. There actually is zero percentage. That sounds like a pig's punishment is having to read this book. Maybe that is. Maybe that is our gambling punishment this year. You have to read the book in a week and give a full report. That actually would be pretty good. I'm looking back right now. I'm reading. This is on the Reddit classic literature page on Reddit. How long did it take you to read Don Quixote?

1:39:47and then people are like, yeah, it took me three weeks, but then I had to take a break to avoid burnout on it. These are people who love literature so much that they post to classic literature on Reddit. Unbelievable, Hank. You're not going to be able to do it. I just bought it. You ever read it on your phone? No. Oh, you bought it in hardcover? Yeah, softcover, but yeah. Should we do this as the punishment? It's 1 ,072 pages. I'm going to be done with it by the time the punishment comes around. No, you aren't. No, you aren't. All right, we'll see. we will see. I don't, so if no one, everyone was so mad at me for not knowing what it is.

1:40:23It sounds like no one's read this book. Oh, no one's read this book. But everyone's like, you don't know Don Quixote. No, you just know him with his donkey, and he just goes around. But no one's so, so the people that are getting mad at me are fucking fraud. Yeah. Like, they were very, people were very upset to the point where I was like, I think I just need to read this book, but apparently it's a book no one's read. No, they just know Don Quixote and his donkey going around. So you're a fraud. Everyone that's chirpy, and there was a lot. There was a lot of fucking people that were like, how dare you not know who he is?

1:40:50If you know who he is and haven't read the book, you're as much of a fraud as I am. I think they just know things. But you don't know anything if you didn't read it. Like, oh, I know the name of a fucking book. Wow. You're actually making a really good point. You're making a good point. So if you average 250 words per minute reading, Hank, the book will take a minute. Yeah. No way. No way. Should we dial it down? Okay. I was just going to tell you what the math was. I was just going to tell you what the math was. That seems like a lot. If you do average 250 words per minute and you read the book for a half hour every day, it would take you 33 days to read it.

1:41:24All right. That's a lot. The audio book is between 36 and 40 hours long. I'm not doing audio. I can't do audio books. I know. I'm just giving you a - That's not a book. I'm just giving you a reference. You're listening to a podcast. All right. Max, I don't know if you know what reading is, but when you're listening, you're not reading. Shut up. I know you're - Whatever. Hank, 0 % chance. And that's not a knock against you. 0 % chance I would. It's not. I wouldn't do it. No. I would not do it. I just thought, again, the reaction that I got, I was like, maybe I'm missing out. No. But it sounds...

1:42:00Whatever. I ordered it. I'm going to give it a shot. I think we should save it for the punishment. I'm going to give it a shot. See how far I get. You're not... I mean, okay. A shot? Maybe I love it. Maybe it's my type of writing. Can you pull up the first page? I want Hank to read the first page. did you get it on on kindle too don quixote first page i think this is one of those books where people have seen like the animated cartoon version of it and they're like oh yeah i've read it yeah all right oh my god the table of contents is crazy oh my god hank i've been scrolling to the table. All right, here we go, Hank.

1:42:43I don't have to swear any. This is tough to read. I'm far away. I don't have to swear any oath to persuade you that I should like this book since it is the son of my brain. Oh, wait, no. No, no. Go to the prologue. Fuck the prologue. All right. Look, Hank, you're already on page like 25. There's too many fucking. Is this the book? Are these songs? Is this the book? Keep going. Erganda the Unknowable. This book sucks. The prologue is insane. Here we go. Chapter one. In a village in La Mancha, the name of which I cannot quite recall, there lived not long ago one of those country gentlemen or Hidalgos who keep a lance in a rack, an ancient leather shield, a scrawny hack, and a greyhound for coursing.

1:43:33A midday stew with rather more than shim of beef. The leftovers for supper most nights. Lardy eggs on Saturdays, lentil broth on Fridays, and all occasional pigeon as a Sunday treat ate up three-quarters of his income. The rest went on a cape of black blood cloth with breeches of velvet and slippers to match for our holy days. And on weekdays, he walked proudly in finest homespun. Sounds like he eats all his food, spends all his money on food and clothes. That's relatable. Yeah. He maintained a housekeeper, the wrong side of 40, a niece the right side of 20, and a jack of all trades who was good at saddling the nag as plying the pruning shears.

1:44:18Our Hidalgo himself was nearly 50. He had a robust constitution, dried up flesh, and a withered face. And he was an early rider. All right. Keen huntsman. His surname is said to have named Quezada or Quezada, as if he were a job owner of cheesecake. concerning this detail there's some discrepancy among the authors who have written on the subject although credible conjecture does suggest he might have been a plantive quick sauna but this doesn't matter much i would love to know the amount of people that are skipping as far as our story is concerned provided that the narrator doesn't stray one inch from the truth all right all right like one one thousand it sounds like an interesting guy yeah you learned a lot about him Hidalgo.

1:45:05Great movie. A little creepy with the niece talk. Great movie. Yeah. I love Hidalgo. Is that what Saints Panthers? Yeah, that was Saints Panthers.

1:47:33Basically the exact same play. Tyrese Knight stripping Jacoby Brissett and then Demarcus Lawrence picking it up and scoring. It was crazy that it happened. The only reason that you knew that it was different was because they happened on different sides of the field. It was nuts that both happened. Credit to Brissett for keeping his interception percentage low by getting swatted at the very last second. DeMarcus Lawrence scoring easy touchdowns and that Seattle defense is relentless and their offense, I mean the last two first halves that Seattle's had the game has been over before the second quarter started.

1:48:07They scored 44 points and they only needed Sam Darnold to pass the ball 12 times he basically hit a dime to JSN to start the scoring I believe and then just didn't have to pass the rest of the game and also Rashid Jahi looks fast in that Seahawks uniform. But this was It's just an absolute shit kicking. I feel like an idiot for thinking the Cardinals had maybe done something and turned the corner with the whole benching Kyler. The Seahawks are just really fucking good. This is a bona fide big-time playoff run type of team, especially with Mike McDonald getting his defense going. We knew he was a really good defensive coach.

1:48:46This was the defense two years ago for the Ravens that was one of the best in the league. he just has everything going right now. And now he's solved the last puzzle for himself is to win at home. And he's doing it. The Seahawks now have a winning record at home. Didn't have that last year. I think that they're actually a Super Bowl threat. Yeah. I believe fully in the Seattle Seahawks right now. It basically just comes down to what Sam Darnold is going to be. If they get home field advantage, I do believe in the Seahawks. And they also, what was big for the Seahawks is they ran the ball, which they haven't been able to run the ball consistently, like game to game, and they ran the ball really well.

1:49:27Obviously, the game flow helped here where they were just up so early that, like I said, Sam Darnold, he was 10 for 12 passing in an absolute blowout. And, yeah, this was never even close. Never even close. The Seahawks, they got a third guy, George Helani. Yeah. So not only do they have Trevor and A. Walker, They got Helani who will step in there and just – whoever you're starting on the Seattle Seahawks in fantasy, whoever you're betting on to score a touchdown from the running backs, you'll be wrong every week. That's just how it's going to be. Yeah. You can't time the Seahawks market. Yeah.

1:50:02That's – by the way, the most interesting thing of this game was that I think – we've talked about it before, but Scorigami is broken, just a broken, broken app that tweets out random things. I believe they tweeted out that this was a Scorigami 44-22. Our darling Jake was quickly on it and said that's actually not a Scorigami because it happened less than a month ago with the Cowboys and the Commanders 44-22. And then it also happened like 10 minutes after this with the Commanders and the Lions 44-22. And it also happened with the Rams and the Niners. Yeah. It happened. It screwed up three times this afternoon.

1:50:44But there was a Scorigami. Wait, no, the Rams and Niners weren't 44-22. I know, but it was 42-26, yeah? 42-26. Yeah, it tweeted out that that was a Scorigami too. But I was saying that it's crazy that they tweeted out this was a Scorigami when it happened less than a month ago and then also happened twice in the afternoon slate. Yeah, but - 44-22. I'm just saying that the Scorigami bot, within the span of about 10 minutes, fucked up three times on three different scores. There was a Scorigami in the Jaguars, Texans, which you should have said. Yeah, we - Jake was very happy. I think he was at a wedding.

1:51:12We missed that one. I think he posted a picture of it. But, yeah, this game was never even close. It was just the Seahawks are really, really good. What do they got coming up? I feel like they've got – so right now, if the playoffs started today, the Seahawks would be the one seed. Wow. They're 7-2. And they still have to, I believe, play the Rams. Do they play the Rams twice still? Yes. they play the Rams next week which will be a great game then they play them again in week 16 Seahawks have a pretty nice schedule actually they play the Rams and then at the Titans at home against the Vikings at the Falcons at home against the Colts Rams Panthers Niners Seahawks I'm just what are the Seahawks odds to win the Super Bowl I like I like the way the team's built that I okay all right Hank I got you I know what you're saying I got you I'm just asking for the odds?

1:52:11The Seahawks to win the Super Bowl. Listen, the way you said that, I got it. I see what you're saying. This is what I'm talking about with Henry Lockwood. He wins a couple games and he's like, no other team is worthy of my praise. I'm going to defend Hank here. I think the Seahawks are a very good team. I think their defense is awesome. JSN is one of the best. He's probably the best wide receiver in terms of this season. Sam Darnold still has to prove it in the playoffs. Yeah, 100%. That's the big question. Unless you're a Patriots fan, it would be probably crazy to bet the Patriots win the Super Bowl.

1:52:49Unless you're a Seahawks fan, it would probably be crazy to bet the Seahawks win the Super Bowl. That's fair. That's what I'm saying. What are the Seahawks to win the Super Bowl? They're plus 850. Okay. That's not juicy enough. Yeah, I would. Look, Sam, the good thing is he's on a team that he's going to be able to prove it. And I'm glad that we got. He was last year. And he didn't. Yeah. I know. I agree. You and I are agreeing. Okay, good. But if you were the Vikings, would you rather have Sam Donald back? Yes. Yeah. Yeah. Then nine? Well, we didn't see nine today. He's nine. No, he's nine every time he puts on the eye black.

1:53:30He's nine when he wins. No, that's not what he said. He said he's nine right before the game. He switches into nine. I'm correcting him. it's nine when he wins. You can't just pick when you're not. It's JJ when he's not. That's how we know. That's how we know if it was nine or not, is if he won. Then you've got to decide before the game. He said he does it before the game. He turns it into nine. I think nine might not be that great of a quarterback. I think it was a fake nine that we saw out there. Yeah, the Seahawks are really good. The Cardinals are not. It was like a New York six. That's a great set of New York boobs.

1:54:03But yeah, the Seahawks, I believe. I believe, and I'm glad that we get to see the Seahawks potentially play some meaningful, hopefully, games under the lights this season. I like it when Seattle is a contender and we get some big-time games up in that stadium. I believe they're good. I don't—because you can't just pick every team to win the Super Bowl. I do not. They're not better than the Rams. I guess we'll find out. Yeah, we will. We'll find out. We'll find out on Sunday. That's why they play the games. All right, that's the other game. Rams 42 49ers 26 the Rams are really fucking good and Matthew Stafford is playing out of his mind right now he is the last three games he has 13 touchdowns zero interceptions he has so uh three straight games four more touchdowns no interceptions the only two guys who've had longer streaks is Peyton with five and Marino with four he's in that level right now he's playing out of his mind And the Rams, they jump out 21-0, and then the 49ers came back and kept on making a seven-point game.

1:55:10And every time the 49ers answered, the Rams were like, all right, fine, we'll just score again. Yeah, they never stopped. They never stopped. They just kept the exact same pace going. And if you back it up even three more games, in the last six games that Stafford has played, he's got 20 pass touchdowns, no interceptions in six games. No quarterback has ever done that in a six-game span within the same season. MVP. Right now, I'd say Matt Stafford is the MVP. MVP. He's playing like an MVP right now. He absolutely is. And the 49ers, they have a pattern. We can at least say that. Their pattern is that they win every other week.

1:55:47Yeah. And the craziest part, Matt Jones played well. I know that he had an interception at the end in kind of garbage time. He was 33 for 39 for 319 yards. He wasn't the problem. The 49ers defense just has nothing left. Yeah. They just – the Rams were so – you could say Mac Jones, you know, they probably could have used a couple drives early in the game to keep them in the game and keep their defense off the field, yes. But overall, you can't look at this game and be like, man, Mac Jones really sunk them. No. And it's just the 49ers defense just do not have answers right now, personnel-wise, for the Rams offense.

1:56:27I did like Brock Purdy on the sidelines wearing the wristband. Looking at the plays. Yeah. It seems like he's probably going to try to get back in, but the Rams are a much better team. They're a much better team. Devontae Adams looks good. He got banged up. Did he? Yeah. How bad is it? I don't know, but I think he left the game. So we'll see. He was good while he was playing. He was good while he was playing, but I know he left the game later. Yeah, he's an insane red zone threat. And then also Sean McVay has just – I know 13 personnel isn't something he came up with but the way the rams are using it it feels unstoppable right now this might be the wrinkle you know yeah i mean matt stafford he's playing as good as he's ever played with the niners yeah you go back to week three they beat the cardinals and then since then it was loss win loss win loss win loss so every other way so they're gonna they're gonna beat the cardinals Oh, that's interesting.

1:57:21So, like, after a loss, they're a little more hungry? Yeah, they are. Huh. You don't want to play the Niners off a loss. That's interesting. That's an interesting stat. Good team like that, well-coached team like that. Yeah. That's an interesting stat. Did you guys see Kendrick Bourne with the most untied shoes of all time? Yeah. Can you pull up the clip? I don't think I've ever seen that in the NFL. It's actually – I know that I'm sounding like a father of three here, but I yelled at my TV. I was like, dude, you've got to tie your shoes. you're going to trip while he's running for, it was like a 40 yard gain.

1:57:55Yeah. Watch that, that right there. Pull this up. I've never seen anyone with - It's not like they were just untied. They were so untied. Look at his shoes, Hank. Those are the most untied laces of all time. Is that pass interference to step on his shoes on purpose? Yeah. He immediately, you know what, keep playing it because they should do a replay. He immediately went to tie them because he's like, oh, fuck, man. This is actually a pretty big danger. Those are so untied. They're thick laces too. Yeah. You got to tie those up. The Niners can't be risking that type of shit with injury. No, I would just step on those laces.

1:58:35That's like they got to they got to maybe have that in film study. Be like, dude, tie them up. That really was a inconsequential part of the game. But I just I felt like I noticed it and I was upset. Yeah, this game was just the Rams get ahead. They stay ahead. Yeah. Yeah. And they just every single time you thought there was gonna be an answer. It's like, nope, nope. We got this right down the field. 13 personnel. We just got three tight ends that all look the same. And you have to wait until one of them scores. And you think that you got your guy scoring. And you're like, oh, that's not Tyler Higbee.

1:59:12That's the other Tyler Higbee. Oh, there's a third one. And it was the Harrison Mavis game, too. Yeah. Love watching that guy. I do, too. I do, too. We said that, Rams. One issue is they don't have a kicking situation that they feel like they figured out. So, good job, Rams. They are my power rankings. Well, I guess we'll see on Monday night. We got to see Monday night. But as of right now, week 10, after watching everyone play, I think the Rams might be the best. They're number one in the NFC. Yeah. Now, I feel like the team that wins on Monday night is going to be right up there. Yeah, absolutely.

1:59:46That's what I'm saying. There's definitely still time to change that. I mean, the Rams' two losses were a division loss, obviously the Niners when they beat them on Thursday night, which was kind of a crazy member. Kyron Williams fumbled at the end of the game and then the loss to the Eagles where they had two kicks blocked yeah so this team is very good very very good okay last game Lions 44 Commanders 22 PFT yeah um I was watching this game and I thought to myself this might be the worst team in football yeah I still think the Titans are worse they might be right up there The defense is worse than Titans right now.

2:00:26Damn. Maybe. No, the defense is historically bad. We can say historically bad because it is, in fact, historically bad. Now I'm thinking, like, top three pick. It's a possibility for this team. Have you guys won too many games, though? No, we won three games. Right. Not that many games. Who else do you have on your schedule to win some more games? Well, we got the Dolphins in Spain next week. That could be a win. I don't think anyone's going to wake up to watch that one. Wait, so are you full-on tanking? Yeah, I'm full-on tanking. And there was a report last week that Jaden might come back after the bye.

2:00:58I want to be perfectly clear about this. Under no circumstances should Jaden Daniels step foot on the field with this team this year. The defense is, yes, historically bad. It's worse than it was when Jack Del Rio was at his worst as our defensive coordinator. Now, they have lost four games in a row by 21 or more points. First team to do that since 2002 with the Cardinals, who were so bad that Pat Tillman said, I'd rather go fight in Afghanistan than return to this team. And next up, if they somehow manage to get blown out by the Dolphins. Jayden's thinking something similar. What, fighting in Afghanistan?

2:01:32I don't think his mom would let him do that. True. War's over, bro. Yeah, we got out of there. But if we lose... Nothing bad happened getting out either. If we lose somehow to the Miami Dolphins in Spain by more than 21 points, that would be the first time that a team has lost five games in a row by 21 or more since the 1965 pittsburgh steelers so yeah things are bad things are very bad right now the team's really not that much to look forward to i just again like i said on friday i put on my hat i put on my commander's shirt i i clocked in to get my teeth kicked in knowing it was going to happen and sometimes you You just got to pay the piper.

2:02:17So I'll just get my ass kicked, I think, probably just about every week for the rest of the season. But I am looking at Tankathon, and there's a good chance that we could finish up in that top five, top three. Yeah, you got to lose this game to Dolphins then. He's almost a must-lose. This would be a huge, huge. Who's line? Is it anyway? That would be a huge switch if you somehow win this game. Marcus Mariota still has not learned to not try to hurdle people. He tried to do that again and did just a flying ass into somebody's face. Yeah, I don't know. What is the spread for next week in Spain? Whose line is it anyway?

2:02:55I'm going to say Commanders. Dolphins are home. Oh. Dolphins minus one and a half. Commanders by one. Dolphins are minus two and a half. Wow. Yeah. It's crazy. I mean, if anybody here watched the game, it was bad. Dolphins or the Lions getting away with whatever they wanted. Yeah, Dan Campbell took over. So that was a big story from this game. Dan Campbell took over the offensive play calling. It kind of like trickled out during the game. Like, hey, Dan Campbell's got the headset on, and he's talking a lot when the offense is on the field. Turns out he did, and it worked because they scored in the seven possessions that Jared Goff was in for.

2:03:41they scored on every single one of them yeah and i i think there was like a rumor that he was going to take over play calling duties but then the real clue was he had his glasses on yeah during the game and so they're like oh he's he's really looking at the play sheet today he described it as it was just let's try something a little different so i he said it was a collaborative effort with john morton but yeah it feels like they might have made a little bit of a change and it worked i don't think that the the lions offense was that bad coming into this week but But Dan Campbell's just like, we're not going to win anything major in the playoffs if we have this offense.

2:04:13So he's making a change. Credit to Dan Campbell for making that call. And then Marcus Mariota said, we have to be honest and we have to be transparent. I don't think we are who we think we are. That's never a good quote. No. I mean, I know who I think they are, and I think they are. Right. But Marcus just didn't know. They got to listen to you. They got to listen to me. Joe Witt should not make the trip to Spain. I hear it's lovely this time of year, Joe, but I think it's best that you just stay behind because this defense is just not going to get any better. There's guys wide open. Just bad. Just bad football all around.

2:04:53I mean, the offense had its moments, but you've got to be realistic. You've got to be honest, and it's time for a tough conversation. Tough conversation. Tough conversation. I think that the commanders will probably end up with a top five pick in the draft, which isn't terrible, by the way. I'm okay with that. So wait, go back to Tankathon. I'm okay with, yeah, I'm okay with accepting the fact that we stay. Because you guys still play the Giants. We play the Giants once. You play the Dolphins. So yeah, this will be a massive game in the swing of Tankathon. Because if you win this game, you're basically, there's going to be very hard to get a top five pick.

2:05:28Yeah, and when the game starts, I'll be rooting for the commanders. I'll be wanting them to win. But as of right now, I can acknowledge that it would be best for the organization if we somehow manage to lose that game. You should just sleep through it. I'm not going to do that, Max. You should sleep. Because if you want your team to lose, you shouldn't watch. No, Max, you know how that goes. I know. That's what I'm saying. Like, once the whistle blows, I'm all right. Between the white lines. I haven't been in that spot in a while. Between the white lines. That's how it goes. If you're a realistic fan of your team, there'd be no point in us winning seven games.

2:06:08I agree. That's why it would be best to just not watch it. But I only get 17 chances to watch my favorite team play football every year. Three years ago or four years ago, maybe four years ago, when every game I was like, I hope the Bears lose. And then every game Justin Fields had the ball down one score with like three minutes left. Yeah. I was like, man, this would be cool if they won. Yeah. You know, you fall into the trap. When the game's going on, I'm going to want them to win. But as of right now, it's like, yeah, let's get – let's try to get – You should trade back. Arvel Reese would be nice, though.

2:06:41You only have two picks in the top four? Yeah. We do need – we need a lot of players. Trade back. Because it's – That would be nice to get a top five pick because then you could trade back. Then you could trade back for someone who wants a quarterback. And the more I watch this team, the more I think that last year, the defense wasn't really, we didn't really get any better last year. The defense was just as bad as it was this year. We just did a much better job of controlling the football and not letting the other team's offense on the field. Our defense last year was half our offense. Like anything good that you can take out of that, that was probably because the offense was so much better.

2:07:18So, yeah, we need an overhaul.

2:07:24you got Trey back. Hank, you gave a nice – you gave a little kind of – you said a damn when he started his – Oh, he was talking about this historically bad defense. That was a damn. That sucks. I mean, I'm being honest. It's just very bad. You get a bad defense out there. And the Lions, they – I mean, this was a revenge game for them from last year's playoff game, and they looked good. I mean, this is what you have to do if you're playing a bad team. you have to win like this. Yeah. Because the Lions have had a couple weird games, including last week against the Vikings. And, yeah, they got a – that was a good win for the Lions.

2:08:03Very good win for them. And now going into next week, I do think that the fact that the Dolphins won today, that makes me think that we're going to beat the Dolphins next week. And are you nervous, Max, at all about the fact that the Lions won? No, that would be good. In your eyes, that would be – The fact that you just asked that question. No, I'm asking you the question. but you just forgot what side you're on. No, I didn't. Yes, you did. I might've briefly. Yeah. So I'm back on track, but I'm right back on track. How important. No, I'm, I'm right back on track. They won handily. Huge, huge for next week.

2:08:39Okay. I thought that Donnie Trump did an okay job in the booth. I thought in terms of, I didn't have it on sound. His play by play was not, it wasn't bad. So he wants the stadium named after him. Oh yeah. So that my, my only reaction to that was that's a, That's a very funny slap in the face to RFK Jr. To be like, hey, you know that stadium that was named after your dad? We're actually going to take your dad's name off it and we're going to name it after B. And he's like, that's a great idea, sir. That also feels like a situation you can't request to get a stadium named after you. You just got to let them name it after you.

2:09:11Right? You would think. I think in almost every other example that's been true. Trump doesn't go by normal. Yeah, that's true. Social cues. Also, I can't. Listen, Trump's laser focused on the world. cup draw right now that's what that's what we got to get what is that uh start of december is when we're drawing yeah and he's gonna it's gonna be the most rigged thing ever and i'm gonna be so happy because we're gonna have such a great draw no group of death for us oh no no we're gonna be put into the group of life it is going to be incredible we're pro-life if i know we are going to be so pro-life if i know anything about trump and fifa and the world cup we are going to have the most cup kit it's going to make the patriot schedule look like it's a walk through hell it's going to be so easy we're going to be playing we might even play like the titans in the world cup that's how that's how good the draw is going to be trump is going to be at the world cup he's going to be the guest of he might even be pulling the ping pong balls out at the draw it's gonna rock it's so yeah yeah so that's where i'm at i mean what can i say about the commanders they suck they're a bad team um just need to overhaul everything about the defense and get Jaden healthy for next year.

2:10:25Super Bowl maybe next year. Hell yeah. Super Bowl back on next year. Thinking Soupy next year. I'm really thinking Soupy year after next, but yeah. Okay. So back to just a quick little rebuild. Well, the rebuild was supposed to be last season, and the rebuild kind of never happened. No, no, it just never happened. got the rebuild switched to all in like halfway through the season which means that we never had a full rebuild so it was last year actually bad for the organization that is it was bad for the people are saying but listen when you go to the nfc championship game that that can't be bad

2:11:11true maybe jets have been back to the playoffs in 15 years since it's a great point it's a great point what yeah what if 15 years from now jane daniels was arrested in indy that would be that would be that would be a crazy thing to happen trying to attack a grease truck driver it's crazy thing to happen listen these things happen in the nfl they do they happen in this league of ours okay last game we have the chargers and the steelers in a stinker for the Steelers. Chargers beat the Steelers 25-10, I think the final was. The Steelers are bad. I don't really know what else to say. Aaron Rodgers looked off.

2:11:49He looked old. He's missing the easy ones. Yeah. And the Chargers, I mean, they still can't block. Like Justin Herbert just is the knight in Monty Python where he just got, I think he was double wrapped up his ankles. Yeah, the old Carson Wentz injury. But he still is a baller, and he still was throwing it around, and they were able to run the ball. And the Steelers are just, I don't know. I mean, maybe it's because they got too far away from 9-8 when they won last week and they were 5-3. They had to come back to earth. But the Chargers are good. If they can figure out a way to consistently protect Justin Herbert, they're a dangerous team.

2:12:30Unfortunately, I don't know if they can do that. Although, Pipkins looked okay. Yeah, he looked all right. I mean, he's a body. He looked all right. Some of the injuries that Justin Herbert got tonight weren't necessarily because the offensive line stunk. It was like scrambling around a little bit. Yeah. That's going to be tough. That's an injury where you're going to wake up tomorrow morning and be like, oh, fuck, I'm really banged up right now. Oh, shit. But I have Madison Beer next to me, so I'm good. Hey, babe, I can't. Let's see. Looks like I can't get out of bed today. Let's see. I'm just going to do a quick search of Mike Tomlin.

2:13:02Let's see what is. Oh, okay. How would you assess? Let's listen to this. How would you assess the play of quarterback Aaron Rodgers? What do we think he's going to answer? Anyone want to guess? It's not just about Aaron. Something along the lines of Aaron is the least of her problems. All right.

2:13:24How would you? Oh, flipped it on him. Oh, that's good. We're at that point. You got a lot of questions. You gave him the how would you. Why don't you answer this? You have all the answers. The Steelers are a bummer to watch. Yeah, this is not a fun team at all. They're just the same team every year, and they just keep doing the same thing with a quarterback who's past their prime and bringing him in and running an offense. They're trying. They still did the third and 12 three-yard out pass. But Aaron Rodgers also, he was off. That was not as much play calling as he was missing guys. He missed a lot of open throws tonight, yeah.

2:14:06And the fourth down to DK in the end zone, where he just kind of threw a laser beam out there, that didn't seem like the Aaron Rodgers that we've grown up watching. No. I'm still fully prepared for him to have the greatest night of his career in two weeks at Soldier Field. That's definitely going to happen. It's a possibility. He's definitely going to throw back the clock. I want to walk back my take now that the Steelers. Oh, you can't. No, I said I want to, but I can't. You can't. I can't because Aaron Rodgers in primetime. Yes, has not looked good at all this season, but maybe they play the early wildcard game.

2:14:45Are they going to make the playoffs? They might. They might make the playoffs. They might not. I know. They very well might not. I personally put them at at 46 % chance to make the playoffs. I guess the one thing that is going for the Steelers right now is that they play the Ravens twice, which you'd be like, oh, that's bad because the Ravens are good and the Steelers aren't good, but they always will split it. Yeah, it doesn't matter. So that's basically you're saying it's a win. It doesn't matter what either team's record is. 39 % chance. They have the four seed and they're a 39 % chance to make the playoffs.

2:15:19Yikes. And the Ravens are the 10 seed and they have a 73 % chance. Whoa. what's the Bears chance to make the playoffs

2:15:3238 % and they're the 7th seed that kind of I gotta say whatever the algorithm this is pretty spot on it's pretty spot on yeah I mean somewhere it's definitely not yeah the Niners definitely should be higher percentage chance than the Bears that's a fair estimation even though the Bears are technically in the playoffs if it started today Yeah, I don't know if the Steelers are going to make the playoffs. They have – I'm looking at their schedule right now. They're playing the Bengals. They should win, but they lost to the Bengals. They can't – they've never been able to figure out how to guard Jamar Chase.

2:16:09They still have a game against – two games against the Ravens, a game against the Lions, and a game against the Bills. Bears, Dolphins, and Browns mixed in as well. But those four games, they're going to end up 9-8. it's pretty much a question is 9-8 good enough to make the playoffs which I mean it's perfect for Mike Tomlin yeah but that's it is 9-8 good enough to make the playoffs I don't know the answer to that I don't know either it's going to be right on that line yeah okay rowback question RHOBACK.com promo code TAKE 20 % off your first purchase Q-Zips, Polos, Hoodies, Joggers, Shorts rowback.com promo code TAKE Max we are streaming Monday Night Football so tune in Are we doing it on PMT channel?

That would be awesome. How many tush pushes are we getting? I don't know. Right in the Packers' face. Two. It feels personal for the tush push. Yeah, they should do it first play of the game. Yeah, they should. I like that idea. Set the tone. I like that idea. Let them know. Let them know we coming. Yeah. We coming. Are you going to... What's your attire tomorrow? What's the food tomorrow? I don't know. Are you doing the pizza and Pepsi?

It's a big fucking game. Yeah, every game is a big game. The Eagles only play the best teams in the NFL. Eagles schedule is crazy. It's insane. Have the Eagles made it to Lambeau yet? There were some travel issues. There were. I don't know about these issues.

2:18:44Oh, no. You don't know about these issues? It's snowing out here. Government shutdown. Eagles travel issues. I got a DM that Joe Flacco got de-planned. Won't be practicing tomorrow. What? Got de-planned? Yeah, travel issues. Shit. He's back home in Philly. I like that some fans have decided to drive because of the delays. I like that. I love that, yeah. Fans aren't going to miss it. Yeah, I don't know. They'll get there. They will be there by game time. Delayed a few hours getting to Green Bay. That's no problem. That's not. Yeah. Who cares? That's the reason why Penn State lost that game. Penn State loses every game.

2:19:25No, but they lost that one game because the flight got fucked up. Yeah. Yeah. Small runway. Small runway. They have to go all the way to Harrisburg. It's brutal. Brutal. It's fucking brutal. I had to do that. Yeah, you did. Fly out of Harrisburg. And you had like a, you got angry and had a meltdown. Well. Not as good as State College. We are It's such a great video Can we add the video in I think we should add the video in We want you to get up Hey it's Hank and Max Oh that was so bad Did I tell you that Hank tried to make me do that ad Oh my god Yeah and I was like this makes no sense I'm not even going to the game I tried hard You literally killed the Penn State program Yeah I don't really care about that but they do not have a win.

2:20:17I definitely did, yeah. Since. That's just like funny to me. Yeah. Probably not for Penn State fans, but like I get. Thank God they didn't play that. I get humor out of that. Penn State fans, join me in my crusade against Hank. It really would have, like if they, if that actually got played anywhere except for ourselves, it really would have killed the bro. They should end up with the. 80 ,000 people versus like a million that have seen it since. No, but the optics is way different. Way different. They should win two out of the next three. Who knows? They've lost everyone. Yeah, they're playing Michigan State and Rutgers and Nebraska.

2:20:56Nebraska maybe not. I mean, they lost to UCLA and Northwestern. UCLA's a wagon. No, they're not. Yeah, no, they're not. They're definitely not. They had like two weeks. Max, did you see that play in high school football where that guy just walked all the way down the field with like six guys draped on him? That was a pretty sick play they were just showing on there. Yeah, that's what it was. Oh, really? That's what the Eagles should do tomorrow. Yeah, that was cool. Jalen Hurts. Just fuck him up. Let's make it an easy night. Yeah. Let's make it an easy bet. Let's make it an easy night. Yeah. I'm going to go nuke.

2:21:24Coming off a bye. On the Packers. Sirianni's great coming off a bye. Yeah, I'm betting on the Packers, too. No, I'm betting on the Eagles. I would not. I need the Bears would be, I think, second in the NFC North if the Packers lost. Are you going Eagles? You already went in on Hungry Dog That loss Oh now you're going back You just said they suck You just said they suck You just said they suck I have not placed a bet yet What's the spread It's minus one and a half Yeah Let's take a look Let's go birds Backers coming off a loss Fuck The Eagles coming out It actually is the only reason. What is it?

2:22:10That was just a lie, some guy on Twitter said. Oh. I don't know. Sirianni coming off a bye is good. I can't find the stat. All right, I'm putting it in right now. We're done talking about it. Sirianni coming off a bye is... Jalen Hurts and Nick Sirianni have never lost coming off a bye. Boom. Bet is in. Bet is in. Okay, let's do... Has Matt LaFleur lost coming off a loss? Who's back of the week? What? Has Matt LaFleur ever lost coming off a loss? That's a really good question. That's true. That makes sense. Matt LaFleur back-to-back losses. I mean, they definitely have lost back-to-back games.

2:22:54They definitely have. In 2022, Packers coach Matt LaFleur loses back-to-back regular season games for the first time. Yeah, it was in 2022. It was in 2022. Last year, they definitely lost two in a row. Did they not? They did. They lost their last two last year to end the season. Vikings and Bears. Yeah. Come on, Max. And then in 2023, they lost a bunch of times in a row. They also lost. Coming off their loss to the Browns, they tied the Cowboys. Yeah, and that was a loss. Yeah. That was a loss. So they already have a sample size of coming off of a bad loss. Yeah. And it wasn't good. And it was, yeah.

2:23:37It was a tie. It was a tie. So what if they tied you, Max? You've got to take plus one and a half then. That's your best case scenario. No, no, my best case scenario is for the Eagles to tie a game not to the Packers later. All right, let's do Who's Back of the Week, finish up the show.

2:24:53Wait, is it 50? 50-year anniversary. 1975. 75 what if what if there was an account that just tweeted out the entire contents of don quixote like tweet by tweet would you follow that account no he wouldn't even do that yeah he wouldn't even follow it no i'm i have i have that twitter account he wouldn't even do my possession it's called the book of a book yeah it is pretty crazy that it's 50 years to the date I saw that there was a snow cane out on Lake Michigan. Right now? Yeah. Yeah. No, it's like we have thunder snow. A hurricane of snow with an eye. I hit one tweet about it, and I've been in the algorithm ever since.

2:25:34It's basically the greatest event for any meteorologist or wannabe meteorologist. They're all talking about it because there's like some big – it's lake effect snow, and it's where is it going to land? And I saw a forecast that we're due to get between one and 15 inches of snow. That's not a forecast. That just isn't. Yeah, it's not a forecast. I did see one meteorologist the other night be like, yeah, you know, we might get thundersnow. And there are meteorologists that worked in this city for 40 years that never got to see thunderstorm snow before they retired. And it seemed like it was personal.

2:26:11He was talking shit to this guy that already retired. Stopped by his biggest haters funeral. They had the news on after Sunday football ended, and they had school closings on the bottom. My kids... We were golfing on Wednesday. Yeah. But it's going to be 50 again on this Wednesday. Might have to golf again. Might have to golf again. I don't know. I think after snow, it's over. No, I've played six last rounds of the year of golf so far. 18 inches. I can go for seven. I think we're going to get... I'll predict right now. None of this. Call my shot. I think we're going to get three inches, and it's going to be gone by Wednesday morning.

2:26:49I feel like it's going home. I live near the lake. It's going to be a war. Well, it depends if the band sits down on your face or not. You don't know. The band could sit down wherever the fuck it wants to. When are we going to know if we're going to have stool tomorrow? I'll report back on Tuesday. My kid's school already said, hey, we're doing school, which is like, okay, nice. No, I said stool. Oh, stool. Is stool canceled tomorrow? Yeah, yeah. Cancel it. No, I'm not canceling. Two hour delay for stool? A snow day would be so sick. You'd be such a legend. Dude, stool. One day we should get a snow day.

2:27:22We did have one in New York. Remember that? No. I think we went to work. I remember just taking the train and there was no one on it and then trudging in and we had to do the show. It was kind of cool. It was cool. I like the first snow day. I like the first snow day. Oh, so you're taking a personal snow day. Until the Eagles came. Yeah. I'll come in for the game. The first snow day of the year is awesome. I'll probably come in early. Are you not doing Yak Gauntlet? Nope, I'm doing that. Oh, yeah, you are. I thought because I had this exact thought of I might not come until the Eagles. I have to come in and do the fucking Yak Gauntlet.

2:27:55No, you get to do it. Yeah, you get to do it. And there's a fucking cash prize, buddy. It's a grind, man. The grind never stops. Okay, good who's back. I don't even know what it was. It's just the weather. Snow. I've been to Cheryl. For a national sports podcast, We're doing a bad job right now talking about the one band of snow that's going to hit essentially just Chicago and northwest Indiana. Nowhere else. Like if you're west of the city, if you're in Naperville, I don't even think you're going to get snow. So we're not even we're so hyper localized with with this snow talk. And I'm a show.

2:28:33And I'm a show. Never forget. PFT, you're who's back. My who's back of the week is Antonio Brown. Oh, he's back in the United States. Right now. He was in Dubai, and then he got extradited, flown back to New Jersey, and now he is flying to Florida to face attempted murder charges. Because of what happened, and was it the Aiden Ross livestream? Yeah. Apparently he stole a security guard's gun and allegedly fired two shots at a guy. One of the bullets, I guess, grazed the guy's neck. So, yeah, Antonio Brown back, also in prison. Okay. That was a crazy live stream, though. Is he still tweeting? Or at least the guy who runs his account?

2:29:19I don't know. I actually blocked Antonio Brown a while ago on Twitter before he started doing the CTE SPN stuff. Yeah, yeah. I forget exactly what it was. I think me and him had beef. His dick when he posted his dick? It was probably when he was jacking off in the hotel pool, yeah. I thought, maybe I don't need to see that. But, yeah, it was a wild live stream. That is, yeah. So he's going to go to jail or maybe? I don't know. He's charged with attempted murder. Pretty crazy that Tom Brady found himself around all these guys that did all this bad stuff. Kind of coincidentally.

2:29:55Hank? Yeah, Patrick Mahomes would never. That's actually a fair counterpoint. That was good. That was quick, Hank. For a midnight? On a Sunday? Not necessarily. That was quick. A counterpoint, more of an excellent deflection point. A pass-the-buck point. Yeah, there's bad guys that are good athletes. News alert. News alert. Welcome to Earth. It is weird, though, the way this all shook out. Apparently, he's been chilling in Dubai for the last two months. That's nuts. Yeah, and then they picked him up, and that's going to be the worst flight. That's a tough flight. Everyone talks about bad flights.

2:30:37The extradition flight has got to be the worst. Yeah. Do they let the handcuffs off on the plane? I don't know. My Who's Back of the Week is the Athletics, which Las Vegas, Sacramento, the Sacramento Athletics, Jussie Athletics, their Twitter account, because after 655 days, they have opened their account to replies again. That should be a mistake. That's insane. And they had on their first tweet back with replies open, they were talking about Silver Sluggers, and they had 1 ,400 replies to it. So they didn't have any replies open until November 8th. 655 days. Pretty crazy. Cowards. Good interaction.

2:31:28Also, Emmanuel Klaasé, he did some bad things. That was so they arrested Ortiz and then they are looking for Emmanuel Klaasay. Yeah. Yeah. And he did it all for like 12 grand. Apparently. Yeah. He was making 5k to rig his. OK. Yeah. So he and they have like a bunch of texts. I don't know why you would text about all this. Yeah. He was texting his buddies because there were a couple of times that he tried to throw first pitch for a ball and then somebody swung at it. And then his buddies were upset about it. He's like, my bad, guys. Sorry about that. Yeah. You should probably just never text these.

2:32:06You should not do them. But if you do do them, it's like there should be an additional penalty that gets tacked onto your sense if you're just stupid as shit. Yeah. While committing a crime. It is funny. This is not funny because this is bad and we need to get this out of sports. But watching the Andy Pagnes swing at Emmanuel Classe trying to throw a ball. Yeah. And his friend losing$100 ,000 on it. It is funny. Yeah. It's funny watching it back. All right, Zach, finish us off. My Who's Back of the Week this week is Sidney Sweeney. Oh. What happened? Sidney Sweeney may be getting into the fight game.

2:32:41What? Sidney Sweeney, recent star in a biopic for a woman, Christy Martin, female boxer. Yeah. And Sidney Sweeney saying, I guess she had to put on a little bit of boxing weight to get right and was doing the training and everything. Yeah, the heavy bags. Her quote was, in the middle of filming this, I was like, I love this. This isn't hypothetical as you think it is. I'd totally do a charity bout. That'd be so sick. You'll have to wait. I'm serious. Stay tuned and you'll see it. I have some names that can't be thrown out. Who do you guys think Sidney Sweeney could knock out in the ring? Me. Yeah, I think...

2:33:15I'll fight her. I think there's probably like a million horny guys that would sign up to get this shit kicked out of them. Yeah, just punch you in the face, Sidney Sweeney. Super fair point. Yeah. Women-wise, though, do you think there's a bout? Is there another actress you'd want to see her go head-to-head with? Pelosi. The Cannons show. She's not doing much. Cannons versus Cannons. Get her out of retirement? Yeah, she retired, right? Yeah. I don't know. Step in the ring. Pretty much anyone is the answer. Do you have an answer for this, Zach? I don't. I should just pull it up Cindy Sweeney's tits.

2:33:49What are you doing? I think Margot Robbie. What are we doing? I think that would make for a good bout. You know we can't concentrate when that happens. That's what I'm not supposed to. Yeah, I like it, but... I'm looking... This is the news. This is what we're talking about. We're trying to stay on task. You're just throwing her tits in our face. These are just pictures of... That's nipples and tits. It's a great dress. This is pictures of the woman we're speaking of. You're right. We wouldn't have known. It's a great dress. But what happens when you... I don't know if you noticed, Max, but when you keep pulling up pictures of Sidney Sweeney's tits, we just keep going silent.

2:34:23That happened. He did it again. He just did it again. Well, you didn't have to click on that one. People are listening to podcasts. They're like, oh, shit. Did my Bluetooth just fuck up on my phone? I'm sitting in my car. My Bluetooth's out. No. More Sydney Sweeney tits. I think this is a great news story, Zach. Thank you for bringing this up. Yes, sir. Maybe, you know, Sydney Sweeney, great curves. Body goes crazy. Maybe she has hands, too. Yeah. There was another pair right there. it's just we can't it's like chewing gum and walking we got a bud we can't podcast and look at tits you can't do it you can't just it just completely well brings this thing to a halt podcast professionally you have to have an ample supply of blood in your brain yeah max you actually that difficult if you could ever ever be smart and make the connection like when we're trolling you and poking you you just need to just throw tits in our face it's basically like a cop throwing out the speed strip or whatever.

2:35:25Just get our... The car's got flat tires now. There was another one. Okay. We gotta end the show. What is that?

2:35:39Okay. Go back to the dress real quick. I just want to see something. That's not the dress. That's ass. We can podcast her ass. I mean, I can see the dress right there. podcasting possible yeah this is actually worse than when hank read a chapter that's a problem i'm thinking about the podcast listeners is the problem i'm thinking about the ice cream they're probably pulling up pictures of sydney sweeney that's true shout out the boys doing the same following along they're following along the lesson plan there's there's there's her left tip there's her right listen i think she's beautiful me too i i'm a big fan of her lock me up if that's a crime.
