One more, fumble, fumble!
We start in Philadelphia where Saequan Charles Barkley was the round mound of touchdowns, opening the scoring after some terrible tackling by the commanders. And like my good friend Max, Saequan was obviously winded at the end of the runs, breathing heavily and having big pants. Also like Max, Saequan flew and popped twice up the giant gut and rolled into the end zone, making Washington go belly up.
The story of this game was turnovers, not the ones Max eats fat. And much like Max in the back tub, washing ton, struggled to clean up their game. As the Eagles continued to pound the rock, they began to tip the scales and put up a huge number, Max. Ultimately, it was a great season for the commanders, but much like Max, Washington fans have to admit, even though they took one on the chins, being a good football team, was worth the huge weight.
As for the Eagles, just like when Max has ice cream, they go for the Super Bowl. I'm trying to cheer up my friend PFT. I'm trying to cheer up my friend PFT. Did you hear about the Washington commanders, the defensive players for the commanders? What I told, there were some bad LBS.
When I told Max I was gonna write this boomer. I said how about cherub? I'm a cherub my good friend pft. Let me finish it Max as for the Eagles just like when Max has ice cream They go for the Super Bowl. We're also gonna eat ice cream. I'm on the front It's my boomer Eagles 55 commander's 23. You played really well teach also also boom They're very excited about getting to the licks
We go to Kansas City for our annual coronation of Patrick Mahomes as the bills come into town with a wagon circle and after a quick three out the Chiefs get the ball and proceed to March 90 yards with Kareem with me Kareem for the year Kareem for the left Kareem for the tears Hunt said Errol Smith stadium a place
Buffalo responded to take the lead as Edgar James almost cook stood and delivered a score of his own. Xavier tears worthy had another grand day weekend, jamming up with Patrick Mahomes in a deep cut. And then Mahomes ran one in for six and celebrated with a worst attempted spike since Bill Crosby. But the bills needed to cut it to a one score game before halftime as Josh I'll drop back back back back.
back, back, back, back, back, back, back, back. Holland's cutting his lead to five before the break. The second half started like the bachelor party that Max will be invited to as the bills kept rolling. But the big man refused to get TD fucked. Buffalo did their best impression of Patrick the home senior putting together another wild drive before blowing two points. This game was drunk, folks. And somehow Kansas City's often stalled out giving Buffalo the ball back with the lead. Huh?
and on forked out in a touching tribute to William Jefferson Clinton's penis. The bill's got a bad spot. Now the cheese at the ball and Patrick Mahopinheimer said, now I've become deaf, destroyer of worlds, and the buffalo ties it up. And Harrison, I like big buckers' response by turning into circuits a lot, splitting the uprights like a thorn. And now the bill's took a shot downfield on forked out, and Dalton next of kin, Cade, has been notified that their season is once again dead, and when they die,
They died nasty as the Chiefs looked to make it three Super Bowl type of chips in a row winning 32 to 29. And that was fastest two minutes presented by Chevy, fastest two minutes presented by our good friends at Chevy, Chevy has packed more capability in the Silverado Trail boss.

Okay. Championship Sunday in the book. Super Bowl 59 is set Eagles versus Chiefs rematch. Super Bowl 57, but we got to talk about the games first. And then we'll, we'll do some, some early thoughts on the Super Bowl. Let's start with Eagles 55, commanders 23, PFT. I got to take some medicine. That sucked. I got to take some medicine.
We got our ass kicked. It was an ass kicking. The fumbles really what, what caused the game to be such a blowout, but it, it didn't really feel like I got bad vibes from that first defensive snap of the game. When sake won Barkley was one of my key to the games. It was not letting sake won Barkley score long touchdowns. Yeah. And he scored a long touchdown right when he got the ball. Uh, the defense played pretty poorly today. Offense with the fumbles. It was an ass kicking.
And I will admit that it was easier to come back against Kenny Pickett when we're down a similar amount. That was in the game. That was easy. He got in the game late. It was easier to come back against him in that offense. Jalen Hertz played awesome today. He played really, really good. Sequin Barkley is a beast. Dickerson is a tough motherfucker. Cam Jurgen's tough motherfucker on their offensive line. Yeah. Credit to them. I hear a lot of people talking about big picture.
That's the words of comfort that people are giving me to me right now is like, well, think about the, I don't wanna think about the big picture right now. The big picture, who cares about the big picture? I'm standing too close to the painting to worry about the big picture. Big picture, that's a conversation for another day. It's off season. Like I just watched Friday Night Lights yesterday, the movie. Big picture, yeah, you could say Billingsley has a cool ass dad that loves to party. Big picture, Booby Miles has twins that he loves very much. I don't care about big, I care about what happened today.
And what happened today was an ass kicking. We're very close to the Super Bowl one game away. But then once that game started, it did not feel like we were very close to the Super Bowl. Yeah. Jaden played awesome. I thought he played great. We're not counting that last interception. You actually said it before you're like, we're not counting these. If he throws a pick on this last drive, it doesn't count. And I agree with that. Yeah. Yeah. It counts for Quincy Mitchell. That was a great interception by him, but that doesn't go against Jaden stats in my book.
Uh, yeah, it was just, it was an ass kicking. Uh, the offense moved the ball pretty good, but when we did move the ball, we'd give it up on a fumble or it was the fourth downs were looking good too. Right off the bat, that initial drive that we took down the field, we only came away with three, but it felt like a good drive to set the tone, hang on to the football, control the clock.
just manage to take what they give you. And then the Eagles went up and then it felt like we were never really in a position where it felt like it could be real. So it sucks to lose. This is a new feeling for me because it sucks to lose a lot of games, but it also does suck to be close to going to a Super Bowl.
and then losing that because nothing is guaranteed. Dan Marino got to Super Bowl his second year and he's like, I'll be back to plenty of these. Not necessarily the case. I think he made it back to two AFC Championship games after that and lost both of those. So when you're this close, it sucks. But that said, I do realize that we've got a great quarterback. We've got, in my opinion, a great head coach for this moment and Adam Peters, a great GM. And also I will admit that
Max was right when I didn't say shut the fuck up, Hank. When I didn't say fuck. He was. I think we all knew that. I think the wind horse fingers. Yeah. We knew by your reaction that it was probably true. Yeah. So my off season, I'm trying to figure out levels of cope, levels of cope after this game. I'm not going to stoop to the levels of certain people.
I'm not going to just say I blame the refs. I saw a lot of that going on. A lot of the Eagles are seven and O when Sean Hockily refs their games. We got our ask it. They hung 55 points on us. That was not. I'm not going to blame that on the ref conference championship record. Conference championship record also tied the most rushing touchdowns.
Yeah, it was bad. It was an ass kicking. It was an ass kicking across the board. Our defense didn't play well at all. A lot of more didn't play well. Mike Sander still didn't play well. Nobody. I mean, maybe Jonathan Allen had a decent game. It was just bad. It was a, it was a bad thing to experience, but
You know, maybe we'll get better. My off season is going to be spent just scouring top 10 quarterback lists. I think that's how I'll go. And if I'm dissatisfied with where people put Jane Daniels, I'll get really mad at that. I feel like that's something I'm going to be focusing in on. That's good. You see your energy.
Also, great performance by Max today. He's sitting next to him on the couch. He spat on me like seven times accidentally. Hit me in my eyeball. Yeah. That one was wrong. That one was wrong. It was hell. It was hell sitting between you and Carter. It's in the eye very similar. Yeah. But I actually think Max, I wrote down his note, like, you should get to poke Max in the eye. Yeah. Listen, he should come in here right now and you should poke him directly in the eye. I wish he had hit me in both eyes, so we didn't have to see the ass kicking.
It's very rare that you can see yourself getting your ass kicked. Yeah, it was, um, it was a tough game for the commanders. I mean, the four turnovers or three turnovers or three fumbles were very bad, but I don't think that it was, uh, obviously they're significant, but also the Eagles offense was just running down your throat and Jalen Hertz was awesome. He that the game, I feel like came down to that fourth and five, uh, shot, played AJ Brown. Cause that was a, I think a 20 to 12 game at the moment, at the time.
And he makes that throw perfect throw and he was doing everything. Sequin was doing everything and the Eagles defenses is fucking good because it's as much as like Jaden played well. It also everything was more difficult for the commanders even that first drive. It was like 14 plays. You got three and you did that a few times where it's like you get three you get three instead of seven and you just can't do that against the team like the Eagles with the way they were playing on offense.
It was way more difficult for us when we had the ball, for sure. And yeah, the turnovers sucked. The turnovers were very significant, but also at the same time, they turned those turnovers into touchdowns. Right. And that's what made it so difficult to come back from. Yeah. And so yeah, at least we still have the hard rock.
you still have a hard rock manors territory you play that guy's video so for people who missed it uh... the commanders commander fan meet up at the hard rock and filly last night uh... the iconic space in philadelphia yes everyone knows i saw a lot of filly people being like i don't even know where the fuck this is but the hard rock has fallen uh... and if this guy's speech was was so funny because it really was like what i would imagine uh... they said once they stormed the beaches of normity and they and they finally got like the uh...
You know, they got control of France. They entered into France. This is almost exactly what it was like when they got the hard rock last night. All right, play it.
The hard rock has fallen Came out to we came out to make Yeah, good guy Yeah, he does seem like a generally good guy and it's more just the funniest is more just the fact that it was the hard rock Yeah, and they're like
We came out here to accomplish getting, you know 50 simultaneous reservations at the hard rock.
Shout out open table. We did it. That guy. That guy sounds a lot like Obama. It's not Obama. He's like good evening. Tonight. I can report to the American people to the world that the Washington commanders have conducted an operation that fully compromised the hard rock cafe. Oh no. Were they giving him shit on the way out? What were they saying? Great tailgate at the hard rock.
The hard rock, the rocky steps. This is what you think about. Great job. The hard rock cafe. It's so funny. It was the hard rock cafe. I think they went for the week that they went. They figured out that if Philadelphia has one weakness, it's that you can probably get a shitload of reservations on a Saturday night before the NFC Championship game at the hard rock town.
That's the one area of weakness that you guys have. That speech probably happens across America before every football game every weekend, like opposing fans coming to town. This guy was just unfortunate enough that it was videotaped and put out there as like a motivational thing. And then it was 5523. Yeah, it's I like to imagine like
What's the guy's name? Tailgate, something? He had it on his back. Anyway, I like to imagine this guy this week, like sitting around, tailgate Teddy, I think, sitting around with like war maps out, being like, should we go to for the Applebee's? What about the Chili's? No, sir. We've done some advanced scouting and the hard rock is weak. We can get into the hard rock. I've seen some vulnerabilities. We can take over the hard rock.
Yeah, the we scouted it out. We've had we've had advanced scouts at the hard rock all week. See, you know, testing their patterns and everything. I love that because for a moment when I felt like the commanders might win the game right basically right after kickoff. Yeah. I just thought about how that hard rock will always forever be known as a Washington commanders watering hole.
It'll just be like a place that you have to, you have to make a trip to whenever you're in Philly like it's Mecca. But yeah, listen, I, no excuses. It was an ass kicking. We got a rental defense full of a bunch of one year guys. It's going to be a different team next year. They were playing better than they did at the start of the year, but yeah, the defense was, was not good today.
It's tough. Before we talk about the Eagles and let Max bathe in the glory here, I also want to say shout out Frankie Louvoo for letting us all know that a rule exists that I didn't know existed until today. It's called the palpably unfair act and apparently
Uh, if you just do this, if you, if you intentionally get a penalty over and over the ref conditional ward, a touchdown to the other team. So there was a moment in the third quarter, I believe where the Eagles were on the goal line and they were trying to touch push and Frankie Louvoo kept on jumping over the line, trying to tackle jail and hurts and getting it off sides penalty. And the ref said, this is a warning for a probably unfair act. And if they continue to do it, we will award the Eagles a touchdown.
I had no idea. Florio obviously was all over it. I guess it's been a rule since 1942. It's so like if Mike Tomlin had stepped onto the field and tackled the Ravens returner on his way into the end zone. Yeah. Then you can award it like in rugby they have it's called a penalty try that you do actually a lot. Yeah. I think he also noted like there was a game maybe last year where a team was jumping off sides over and over for a field goal try.
Yeah. So they could just give you the points, which I had no idea. That's kind of, it's kind of crazy. The ref could just say that. I kind of wish they had just ruled it a touchdown because if they had ruled it a touchdown, then I could be like the fucking refs gave you guys six points. Stay woke. Stay woke.
They obviously basically educated America on the probably unfair act rule right before they use it for the Chiefs in the Super Bowl Yeah, good call. I mean that's they're gonna use it for the Chiefs and we're all gonna be like wait Oh, yeah, that is a rule. It's been around since 1942
Yeah, you're going to look at the guy that's next to you at the Super Bowl party that doesn't know the palpably unfair rule. That's a rule I wish I could hear John Madden pronounced. Yeah. That would be great. It's an act. It's not even a rule. It's an act. It's a palpably unfair act. That was what Frankie Lulu was doing. I would also like to announce that this game, I will not allow it to turn me into an anti-Tosh push guy. Okay. Because the Tosh push, the Tosh push
It's a play. It's a football play. If you want to stop it, then stop it. Don't stop it by taking out. You can run it too. Yeah. Like anybody can do it. I saw a lot of people that were pissed off about the tush push. We didn't lose the game because of the tush push. We didn't lose the game because of the referees. We lost the game because Philadelphia played very, very good on defense and they played excellently on office. Yeah. Hurts had an incredible game today and that throw to AJ Brown that kind of felt like it stopped whatever momentum that we had. Yeah. It was a perfect throw.
It was a perfect throw. And yeah, Vic Fangio is an incredible defensive coordinator. It was very clear from the jump that their entire game plan was, let's just take away. We're going to take away Jaden Daniels first read and make him go through his progress, which he's able to do, obviously, but you could see the explosiveness wasn't there for the Washington offense because it was a lot of shorter passes that, you know, you had to go 14 play drive to get three.
And Vic Fangio is just, I mean, he's a great defensive coordinator. And you know, dialing up blitzes when he had to. They were able to keep, like they played really sound defense in keeping Jayden Daniels in the pocket as well. Like it didn't feel like he had, he had a couple of those big runs. There was one that I can really think of. But for the most part, they did a really good job of making sure that he wasn't able to just completely gas them with his legs. Yeah, they did a very good job and congrats Max.
Congrats Hank. Hank, how do you feel? Your birds are going to the Super Bowl. You, you actually, I think we're the closest to having the correct score. Yeah. Yet it is a blowout. It was a blowout. Uh, I feel good. I don't feel as good after the Chiefs win. I kind of stuck in between a rock and a hard place, but.
You know, if it wasn't for the Fumbles that could have been a closer game, I don't think the commanders played as badly as, as you're, you're kind of saying PFT, but the Fumbles made it impossible to win. No, they're often played bad. They're defense played off. Yeah. I mean, they're the seven rushing touchdowns is pretty hard to come, come back. And a lot of bad penalties that gave them the ball and scoring position. So it was, yeah, the defense played very poor. I don't think the offense played bad at all.
I give the offense a be great. The Eagles went to 30 passing 229 rushing. I mean, and that's, that's his, that's his like sound of a game as you can possibly have 459 total yards. And it did feel like whenever they had the ball, they were just going to go right down the field. Max.
Uh, I have some things to say about Nick Sirianni. Would you like to hear them? I would love to hear them. Okay. So Nick Sirianni, uh, as a head coach, this is his fourth season. He's the first head coach to win the NFC two out of his first four years in the last 40 years. No other coaches done that. He's 48 and 20, uh, all time, which is the highest winning percentage of any active head coach, 706 winning percentage. He's five and three in the playoffs.
Uh, he's made the playoff playoffs all four years. People obviously be like, well, yeah, he's had a super team. I mean, the first year they were nine and eight. They weren't a super team. Like the went to the Super Bowl his second year last year. It felt like everything was kind of falling apart at the end of the season comes into this year. Since September, they have not lost the game that Jalen Hart, Jalen Hertz started and finished, uh, and was healthy since September 29th. So that's a long ass time. I think that was week four against the box and he's done all of this.
while being like maybe having like a mental issue and very Italian.
No mental issue. That, that wasn't unnecessary. He's a little crazy. You tried to run away. You tried to run him out of town last year. Yeah. He's a little emotionally unstable. I'm saying, I, this is all credit to him. Like he's, and he's coaching Italian, coaching Italian. That's a hard thing to do. Your fiery guy. No, yeah. That's a positive coaching Italian is a good thing. You coach, but it can also be a negative sometimes. Vince Lombardi. Yeah. True. Ever heard of him? Coaching Italian is hard to do.
You're thinking of other Italians. Steve Spagnolo. Yeah. Great head coach. Great head coach. Great coordinator. I would say coach Italian is difficult. It's credit to Sirioni.
Yeah, he's coaching very Italian. Yeah, no, he's good. It's great. All right, so yeah, Siriani has proven that he's one of the best coaches in the NFL. It is crazy that I think at the beginning of this season, he was on a hot seat, but with the way last year ended, it's not like there's still some context, but he completely rebounded off of the debacle of the end of last season.
This team is really fucking good. And like I said, they haven't lost a game with Jalen Hurts Healthy since September 29th. And they're going to another Super Bowl two out of his first four years as a head coach. He's an awesome, awesome head coach. And he deserves a lot of credit. And Jalen Hurts deserves a lot of credit too because he has had games where it hasn't looked pretty. This is another big game where he came up big and he was awesome today with his legs and I mean, he's injured.
and he was throwing the ball well. And if you're going to say, like, Jalen Hers is in a good QB, then you should have to give more credit to the Nick Sierra Leone, right? You can't have it both ways. I'm talking about the haters. I don't think the haters can say anything. Yeah, the haters gets anything, but I'm just pointing out that, like, if your argument is Jalen Hers is not as, like, not great. It's like, well, then Nick Sierra Leone is the best coach ever.
or jail and hurts is really good and next year is also really good which is what I believe. No, I mean, jail and hurts. I, I, I knew he was going to have a good game today. He always does. How are you mad about that? Yeah. He's angry at the haters. I am angry at the haters. I have a list of the haters. Oh yeah. I told you make, make sure you compile a list. You know what we should do at the sewer? We should make max available for media interviews.
Yeah. Like if other shows want to interview Max, we'll screen him. I want to do a good job with those. He can go on any show. Yep. I want to do a good job with those. Okay. I want you going up and down radio. Yeah, put them on radio. Yeah. Don't take it on. I do it. I have six people on my bad list and then two people are on a good list. Oh, I do have two. Hank. Hank's looking for you. Yeah, why are you doing the thing? He wants to be on the good list.
Yeah, you, Hank, Hank can be on the good list. That's three people. I'll add Hank to the good list. Okay. I also don't have, there's no references here. It was just, I was, I was throughout the week going through Twitter and like watching different things and then just putting people on name on the list. I don't remember what any of them said. Okay. Okay. Don't ask, don't ask me that. Yeah, that's fair.
Um, bad list. Mike Greenberg. What do you say? Don't know. Chris Simms. Chris Simms had a lot of shit. Okay. Chase Daniel. Okay. Co-host of Diana Rossini. I think, right? Yeah. Yes. That's the name of the podcast. It's called Diana Rossini. It's actually just called co-host of Diana Rossini. Um, Alex Smith.
Kurt Benkert. Okay. And Nick Wright. Okay. All bad. All bad. Good. Dan Orlovsky. Yep. He told everyone that there are pieces of shit for saying that you don't hear it stinks and he said that he didn't say shit though. He said pieces of turd.
I don't think. Yeah. He basically just said it was good. Yeah. And Craig Carton, Craig Carton also was, was backing up the Eagles. So those are my two good guy list and my six bad guy list. I don't know any of the context for any of these people, but I get it. I get it. They probably said something like, I don't know if Jalen Hertz has what it takes to win this football game.
Yeah, no. Oh, there's a lot of jail and hurts. It's not a Super Bowl winning quarterback, which really pissed me off. Well, he's not yet. We got let out today. He said, Sirion, he finally let me out. Yeah, let him off the leash. Well, yeah, I mean, he was last week. Last week was snow game. It's hard for any quarterback to be good in a snow game. And he was hurt.
And now he's he's got a little confidence. We're going back to the Super Bowl. We had he had his best game of his career against Patrick Mahomes in the Super Bowl. He's got to do it again. Okay. So talk to us about the game. I mean, you you almost passed out watching this game. Yeah, that was bad. That was that was like this. A big wake up moment in that game. Some people are saying that what exactly you don't want to pass out play.
It was the fumble on the kickoff. He got up too fast and got and screamed and then spit on PFT and then held his head because he was like, Oh my God, I almost passed out. Some people are saying you don't go all the way because like the Eagles players are out there, blood and guts, puke and just trying their hardest and you're worried about passing out.
I was very close to passing out. You should have just passed out. I was very close to passing out. Mom, I know you're listening to this. I'm going to work on it. I'm sorry, because she's definitely going to be very upset that that that I almost passed out. She's going to wish you had passed out. Yeah. Were any of the things I said in the boomers? True. I know. Okay. Max, Max, you get a dog to live for now. You can pass out. Great. Great news. No. Breaking news. Breaking news. Name. Breaking news.
Nola was the name. I was really hoping that dog was going to be a jinx that he got a dog named Nola two days before the game to send you to Nola. Yeah, no, that was that was bizarre. What's he got a dog? I get a dog. So for the haters that say hate dogs.

Shoutout Paul, as Paul made it very easy, it was very good. They're the best. You know, interaction, they brought me into the dog, made it seamless, got me out the, in and out the door really quickly and you know.
Also, I just want to say pause does do screening. So like, they did screen Max before. I know that people are going to be like, what kind of operation is pause if they're letting Max walk out with the dog? They called me and they asked for like, they basically talked me for 30 minutes about the history of Max. Yeah. Well, I mean, you look at the Philadelphia Eagles jersey. You think Michael Vick? Not sure if this guy needs a dog right now. But yeah. So they vetted him and I had to I had to sign. I had to sign something on your back. This is this is all. This is all I.
I'm excited going into it going into the game pft pft at a better height video and and Max was like I haven't slept I've had a bad weekend because of this dog I was worried on that's not sure I had a good weekend because the dog but I had Well, it's like I haven't slept my sleep schedules fucked and this dog ruined like the reason I haven't slept is the dart stream and the dog and
Nola. Were you nervous about getting a dog named Nola before? I was very nervous about that. What is the dog? So the dog's name is not Nola anymore? The dog's name is Billy. Oh, like football. Yeah. Kind of like football. Nope. She's a good dog. We went through.
We've been looking at Paul's, me and my girlfriend have been looking at Paul's for a really long time and we finally found a dog that we were not, not finally, but we found a dog that we were really excited about and we jumped on it and it happened to be that her name was Nola. You jumped on the dog? We jumped on the opportunity to get the dog. It would have been so good if you had lost this game and your dog's name, I would have just called the dog Nola. Yeah. For forever.
But you didn't. If you win the Super Bowl, I think it's got to go back to know. Yeah. We can't keep going back. I thought about it, but we can't keep going back and forth. All right. So back to the game. Congrats on the dog. Very cute dog. Also, everyone go get a dog from Posh Chicago. Any Chicago dog trainers out there? Hit me up. I got a train. Okay. Okay. Congratulations, Max. The game, Max.
Yeah, no, the game was great. There's not really much more. I can say Jalen Hurst was fantastic. Saquan Barkley is the best player in the NFL. And I think that he will he's going to change the running back market because it shows that we're going we're going back into a play of game where running the football matters and you can win running because there was that stat that was going on for forever that actually. Yeah, I still don't know that. We still don't know that stat. Well, yeah, because you didn't win the Super Bowl yet.
I know, but Saquan Barkley is a piece that this team, this team is not where they are right now without Saquan. Okay. Max, I fully acknowledge that. Saquan Barkley is probably the best running back in the NFL. Him and Derek Henry, I would say Saquan's probably a little bit better. I'm pissed off at the Giants. The Giants for letting you guys have him. That sucks for me. But what do you say? He's going to change the way that we look at running backs and signing running backs.
The free agents this off season, Aaron Jones, pretty good player. Najee Harris, Jeff Wilson, AJ Dillon, Nick Chubb off an injury. I don't know if any of those guys are worth it. I'm not going to say immediately, but like going forward, like if Bijan, like, Saequan Barkley is getting paid less than Gabe Davis. Yeah, no, I mean, Saequan Barkley, but he doesn't grow on trees. But like, I'm saying like, Bijan's next contract, like he's going to get more than the top running back was getting this past off season.
And it's also like the Eagles played it perfectly because I still don't think that you should pay a running back a ton of money if you're not a team ready to compete for Super Bowl. The Eagles were a loaded roster and adding Seguan Barkley just makes them that much better. Whereas like if you added Seguan Barkley to the Giants.
The Giants aren't going to the playoffs. True. So it's more like teams that are on the precipice. Like that's a perfect, perfect signing. But he's a beast. The Eagles are just really fucking good. And they were, we said it on Friday. Like they're better at pretty much every position than the commanders. And that, that showed today. Like their defensive line got a great push. Their offensive line, even though there's injuries was, was very good. Kept Jalen hurts relatively clean.
A.J. Brown and Devontae Smith are still difference makers. Dallas Goddard, one of the most underrated tight ends. He needs more credit. Dallas Goddard's a beast. He was an absolute monster. Um, and he actually, the, the, the biggest, one of the biggest plays in the first half that felt like a pretty consequential play was when they didn't have Dallas Goddard on the field and Calcutera wasn't able to pick up the blitz and they got a huge, the commander's got a huge sack.
And that was like the moment where it was like, oh shit, are the commanders gonna be back in this game? But yeah, the Eagles are just all around for really, really good team. Speaking of huge sacks, that was a great fake punt that Dan Quinkle. Oh yeah. It was awesome. And when I said that we have a better punter, Tresway, can also throw the ball. Yeah. But that was also one of those, you're down what, 14 to three at the time, I think. Yeah. It's like you gotta try something. You gotta put your nuts on the table. And it was a great play.
It never felt sustainable with the commanders we're doing. Yeah. It just didn't. We got behind and we kind of stayed behind. Great touchdown catch and run by Terry McLaurin. I'm so glad he's a commander. I'm so glad I get to root for guys like Terry and guys like Jaden. But still, I don't want to, I don't want to think big picture. A lot of people are going to be sending me big picture wishes. I appreciate the wishes, but I do not. I don't want to think about the big picture right now. Just let me be, be very sad and upset in this small little microscope. I'm looking at the season with an electron microscope.
Yeah, play-by-play for today. I think that's the correct way to do it. The big picture is an off-season thing. Yeah, that's an off-season thought exercise that you'll be able to do for the next seven months. Right now you got your ass kicking the NFC Championship game. That's all. I promise you, I will be moved on to big picture by next week.
This may be no. I'm going to make this happen. I'm going to make this happen. I'm going to make this happen. I'm going to make this happen. I'm going to make this happen. I'm going to make this happen. I'm going to make this happen. I'm going to make this happen. I'm going to make this happen. I'm going to make this happen. I'm going to make this happen. I'm going to make this happen. I'm going to make this happen. I'm going to make this happen. I'm going to make this happen.
Yeah, no, it was great. It, it's still, it still was stressful. You know, I was saying stupid shit at the end of the day. Yeah. Max said when the Eagles were up, I believe they were up 25 with six minutes left. Max said this is still going to end up being ending a one score game. Yeah. And we had to explain to him, we're like, there's six minutes left. The best, like if they score 17 points, they're down eight and they, that would mean they had three possessions in the last six minutes.
Well, we work at a company where it's like you you realize that you have to go out of your way not to say anything that could be ever interpreted as a change. So if you're up, you don't say things like great win before the game's over. You don't count your chickens. And that was White Sox Dave, by the way. Yeah. Nice job. No, he said I'll never apologize for
I'll never apologize for a win. Yeah, so Mac, but Max has learned to not touch these third rails because he's gotten shocked so many times That now he's just he's not even going out on the subway station. I I still graced those rails. Yeah, I mean he said we we want the commies before he even played the Rams That's her but in his defense. He was drunk. Yeah, he was a Saturday Max also shout out Ron big. He surprised everyone. He texted me yesterday. He's like I'm gonna be there Don't tell anyone he walked in
I You could tell that it was that was tough. It was tough and hey I gotta put my weapon I put my hand up too and say like I didn't show enough fight either I don't know I got to learn how to win. Yeah, it's a process It was it was a asking though max you gotta you gotta feel good and you're going back to the Super Bowl You got to get redemption against the Kansas City Chiefs and not the pressure on you max, but I
Do you have you had the moment to realize like what what's at stake here in terms of you in this podcast and like if we have to have another losing max second place situation like
I mean, that's you would love that. No, I don't want that. You have a future on the Eagles, but as far as for this podcast, you would be good for numbers. You would love to see me lose. Just in terms of numbers, I think people want to see Sad Max in the pants. Yeah, I'm not saying they've seen it. Oh, but it's chiefs.
I know I'm rooting for the Eagles. If it was the Bills, it would be a whole number. The Bills, I would have cashed out an event. I would have been Josh Allen in your face the whole time. Let's mix it up. Let's get some Happy Max celebratory. Oh, you don't have anything financially. No, it's steak here. Do you? Or legacy steak. Oh, you legacy. Oh, I'm thinking about the fans and what they want. Big legacy steak. They want to see Mac Quinn.
I don't like that memes has weaponized the max picture and even when max wins He just puts somebody else's face on max. Yeah, and then it's also a reminder of that time that max loss I don't think that's fair to max. Yeah, you put your face I don't think that's fair to max. It was you it was me. It was my face. It was a deal with a beard. It's just a great Yeah, oh you get wax now, too. Oh I forgot about the wax to shit. I'll get wax and Nola. How about that?
Yeah, that'll be tough.
Max, have you texted Big Dom yet? No. I texted him on your behalf. No, already? Yeah. I said, no, I didn't say anything about the, I just said congrats to you and Nola with the Eagle emoji in the Italian flag. And he just wrote back, thanks, Paisan, see you there, Italian flag. He thinks I'm Italian, which is fine. I don't know. Italian father. Italian father. Yeah. Italian father. Max, this is the fifth time in Super Bowl history. We're going to have a rematch of coaches in the big game.
the losing coach has lost all four of the rematches. You were telling me stats last week though. I'm just telling you that. So Scott Snow over Tom Landry, Jimmy Johnson over Marv Levy, Coughlin over Bill Belichick and Andy Reed over Shanahan. And this will be Andy Reed versus Nick Sirioni too. So each time the winning, the winning coach the first time won the second time as Eagles win rematches though.
Yeah, there you go. Yeah, and we're go killers. Yep. She's also win rematches. Shit. Do they? Well, they, well, they won the stat for four. Well, they win the re they win the first one too. And the rematch. Yeah, I guess that's all the rematch. Yeah. They somehow win everything. Yeah, she's like to win.
Yeah. All right. So anything else, Max, like like New Orleans, it's going to be your week. I know I'm so excited. It's going to be like the best week of my life. I cool. That's awesome. That's fucking cool. That's it. That is so, so fucking. But what about the week before? Like what about proceeding that?
We're probably going to get to interview an eagle. Hopefully. Yep. That'll maybe even say Dom. Maybe Big Dom. Although I don't really want to know. Big Dom. I don't want to interview Big Dom super weak. I didn't want to ask because he's going to be like, it's about the players. The people want Big Dom. We're going to interview Big Dom Grit Week.
We are. We're going to interview him. Let's not. Well, let's not Big Dom, you know, Big Dom does what Big Dom wants. We love Big Dom. We're not going to pressure. We're not going to pressure. I don't know. I wouldn't feel comfortable asking him, but we're going to try to get an eagle. When a, when if his daughter is getting married, like during the week and we can go to him, we can ask him whatever favor we want. He has to say yes. That's true.
I don't know. I'm just excited for the week. I want the Eagles. Will the pants be making a can we get the pants back? No, I'm wearing the same thing that I've worn in the past two games. Can we get them? I saw what PFT did when he changed up his outfit. What do you mean when I changed my outfit? I wore two different outfits for each of our playoff games. I didn't have an outfit to repeat.
You got bullied online for the jumpsuit. Oh, I got bullied online. You got scared. You think I'm afraid to wear something that makes me look ridiculous? You showed up in jeans today. Yeah. They're pants. They're mugsies. They're super comfortable pants. They feel like sweatpants. They're the most comfortable pants in the world, you idiot. But you're not a jeans guy for a big game. You're a wear crazy jumpsuit guy.
That's last week. I wear jeans for games all the time. My most famous pictures at games are of me wearing jeans like big jeans. Clutch jeans. You could have... Oh, that's fair. I should have worn the jinkos. I should have worn the jinkos today. We have Muggsy Jankos. I should have worn them. That's a fair point. But to say that the jumpsuit, I didn't have like an outfit that I wore, a good luck outfit.
and you shave your beard. But Max had a good look outfit. I didn't shave it where he is. I got a haircut. I got a haircut. Everyone knows playoff time, playoff beat. Max wants us to mention the fact that he's been growing out his beard. No, that's not true. I don't even want you to realize it. I just want you to know that I am dialed on winning a Super Bowl. I need to win a Super Bowl. He also, he's out of the boot and you wore the boot. Yeah. I had to bring in the boot. I'm bringing the boot to Northern. You're bringing the boot to the boot.
I'm bringing the boot to the boot. I have to wear. You have to wear the boot inside the Caesar's. Caesar's Superdome. Okay. Do Nick say that'll be so gross. I love it. Nick say that every Tuesday is Mardi Gras for Max.
Yeah, he did. Yeah, I thought I heard that another another thing Nick wrote down. Yeah, I didn't say oh cuz I'm fat I didn't say no, no, I know you spoke French Hey, so max you're good. Can we get the pants during the week?
I don't know exactly where those pants are right now. Oh no. I love that. I think they're here. They might be. I gave them the hang for the Halloween costume and then I think he gave them back to me. We got to find him. We got to find him. People want to see the pants. We got to find the pants. To me losing pants is one of the funniest things you can do. Yeah. I lost those particular pants. I lose all of my clothing. My clothing has like a one year lifespan until it gets lost. Max, I have a question for you. Honest question.
So after the game, Nick Sirianni called Jalen Hurts a winner. He's a winner. Do you think that Jalen Hurts is a winner? Good question. His head's just about to. Look at that. Max is getting a fever. He can't get out of the heart. He might just pass out. He can't get out of this. This question's going to make you tap. Yes. Yes. He is a winner.
Yes. Has he won a Super Bowl? He's in the Super Bowl. Okay. Hank, Hank, I'm calling him the lefty. Every winner that's ever considered a winner has also lost Super Bowls. Joe Montana? Most of the winners that the... has lost Super Bowl. Okay. That question. I am going through the list of winners. A lot of losses in the Super Bowl. My whole thing...
I just want to Nick Sirianni to also be listed as a winner when he's not terrible. Bradshaw. Terry Bradshaw loses. I don't think I don't think he did. But they lost games. They lost big games. Okay. We're not talking about big games. We're talking about winning because that's the standard that we have on this podcast. Is Terry Bradshaw the goat? Is he like me into the goat? We're not talking about Jill and hers is a goat. We're just asking if he's a winner or not. Yeah, he's a winner.
He doesn't want the big one yet. Okay. So you can be a winner without where he went. But Max said that he's like 27. Yeah, but Max said Dan Campbell's not a winner. He won a national championship. Yep. Dan Marino to winner. He was on team. He won. He played played in the game. It's Dan Marino winner. Now. Okay. He only made it once.
Dan Marino is not a winner. That was my phone, not a fart. So if you make it twice, then you're a winner. Farky. I mean, make it twice at the age that he's at. I would, I would classify him as winner and winning a national championship. Is Josh Allen a winner? Josh Allen is a winner. Okay. Lamar Jackson.
He has Josh Allen has over performed in the playoffs. Lamar Jackson has under performed. Okay. But if Lamar wins a second MVP, Phil Rivers third, third MVP. Phil Rivers. No, not a winner. No. Okay. Okay. Joellen Bead. Absolutely not. How can you say that with the Philly shirt on? He hasn't been to the past. Do you see Paul George got stuck in the
in the Broad Street, like. He was trying to drive down Broad Street and it was just like a problem. In the middle of the game? Like after the game? Yeah. I saw the funniest video afterwards. There was this one kid from 12, and when I say kid, I mean, I think he was three years old. Yeah, he looks very young. That went up to the light pole and started trying to climb the light pole. And then a cop came up to him, fake arrested him, like put his hand behind his back. The kid wiggled out of the fake arrest and ran right back over the light pole and started getting ready to climb it again. I love it. Yeah.
The Philly fan, too, that was walking around with the roasting a pig with a shopping cart. That was genius. Real men are genius. Listen, we got to learn how to win like that. Yeah. Philly was on fire today. It looked like a very fun day in Philadelphia. Well, I'm not thinking big picture. I do have to acknowledge that this was an awesome season. It was beyond anyone's wildest expectations for the team. Hank laughed when we hired Dan Quinn. The tweet was, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
which I bookmarked, we got into a big bookmark off. I want to bring that back up. Left hand up. All in that. So he's sorry about your future, by the way, on the commander. Yeah. Yes. It's heartbreaking stuff. But it was a great season. I'm not thinking big picture yet, but I am saying I'm willing to acknowledge the fact that being in this game and the NFC Championship game is a feeling that I haven't felt in a very long time, and it was awesome to care this deeply about football, this late into the season.
And cherry on top, we actually, I think, posed this question last week. Does Dan Snyder watch? The story came out, which was, like, pretty much just porn for you. Oh, yeah. The Dan Snyder not only, like, is aware of the commanders, he's living in England and he's fucking pissed off and so angry about all of it.
Yeah, it was so good. It came out like first thing in the morning on Saturday. I laid in bed reading the story, just laughing out loud. He's really fucking pissed. Good. I'm glad you're pissed. I hope you watch every second. I hope that your life is just tormented from this point forward. I was very happy reading that. But the details in that story were crazy. Yeah. Like after I'd probably celebrated six times the sale of the team.
When it came time to send the financial information, all he had to do was send Josh Harris his routing number, his bank account number. And at the very last second, Dan Snyder was like, no, I don't think I'm going to send him my bank account number so that he can't pay me $6 billion.
And, and the best part was Goodell got Dan Snyder on the way out because Dan Snyder basically was like, I'm only selling this. I don't want to sell this team. I'll sell. I'm going to make the price so ridiculous that like no one's going to be able to pay for it. He wanted over $6 billion. Josh Harris was barely able to get the $6 billion. And then as he's like about to wire the $6 billion, the NFL find him $65 million that took the actual like full transaction just below $6 billion.
Yeah. That's you know what? We said that at the time too. We said that feels like an oddly specific number. It was like 50.5 million dollar fine on the way out. Good. I'm glad. I'm glad that he's not happy. So funny. I take I take pity on whatever EPL team
You ran him out of the country. Yeah. He literally doesn't live in the country anymore. Yeah. I can't sell his house. He had to give that away. Yeah. Uh, which, I mean, I guess that was a nice move by him because he did give it to like the cancer society, but he also gave his attacks right off too, but he gave it to them and it still hasn't sold. Yeah.
Yeah. And now they have to pay for the upkeep of that house. And they're like, can we just sell this fucking thing already? Yeah. And he, uh, yeah, he's, he's basically been run away. He lives in England. And, uh, they even threw in like, Oh, no, well, uh, he actually loves it there. And he like goes to a pub and like, yeah, he's, he's having a great time. Like a normal guy. I kind of, I want to do it. And he doesn't drink. I don't think.
I want to go over there. Imagine living in London and not drinking. He's got a drink if he's going to Westminster. Well, there was that there was that anecdote to where he was like at one point they were trying to say that he was basically going to get out of all the shit he did bad by being like, I used to drink and I did that all when I was drinking and now I don't drink anymore. Yeah. Like I went, I checked myself in a rehab excuse.
Well, his plan was I'm going to tell them that I stopped drinking, which is that's what you say when you are really admitting that you have a problem. I'm going to make them think I don't drink anymore. But yeah, I'm going to become a born again. Yeah, but that's I was very happy to read that. That was great. It was fun to care about football this much until late January.
but it still sucks. Yeah, it still hurts. And congrats to Max. Stressful week, not a stressful game, and you're on to New Orleans. It's still pretty stressful. And so Max is gonna go to the game. He will have a setup so that he can zoom in, win or lose. We're not gonna stay in New Orleans for those extra days, but Max will go to the game as well, on field reporting, and he will be on the show, win or lose. Actually, when does he have to come on?
He could maybe he could he could like zoom in from his phone on.
No, we'd have to, you have to get your victory lap if you win the Super Bowl. You have to really stick it to us. Shut up, there was nothing stressful about that game for you. No, there really wasn't. I mean, there was, you scored a 60 yard touchdown on your first carry from scrimmage. Yes, take one, Rox. The only stressful time was like in the second quarter when it was, I think 14, 12. And then, but then you guys scored and then you got a fumble on the kickoff right after and scored again.
Like 14 12 was the only time was like, oh, this could be a game. The fake point was stressful. You were up 14 to three, but you were up. Yeah, but that felt like a game like a momentum changing. But the minute you touched the ball on offense, you never were trailing.
Yeah, no, that's true. We were trailing for like 16 seconds, I think. Yeah, right. So you in the 1412, like that was when it was close, you scored. And then the next time the commander's touch the ball is 2712.
Yeah, but we were up, we were up two scores against them in that, that other game too. So that's all. Can you pick it? Well, I kept saying that and you kept telling me that. Yeah, because I was deluding myself into thinking we had a chance to win. Perfectly normal behavior. It did matter. I know, but I, it's still stressful. Like when we went, when we went three and out to start the second half, I felt kind of stressed then.
I would say like maybe at the start of the game when we kept converting those 4,000 on that very first drive. That was probably the first drive was stressful. But Max, here's my roadmap that me and a lot of other people had this week to convince ourselves this was going to be a good football game.
The Eagles are so good. They're better at every position. Yeah, but Jane Daniels might be actual magic. That's what, that's what we were telling ourselves and forcing, we're forcing ourselves to believe that Jane Daniels was literally God and that he could do whatever he wanted. He wanted and nothing else in the game would matter. That's, that's the level that we had to get to, to convince ourselves that this was going to be a commander's win. Fred Smoot, we probably want to lose by thinking. Do you think Fred Smoot watched that game and was like, what the, what the
No, I was watching that came in like did I turn is am I sleeping right now like this can't be happening I was getting I love with I love what Fred Smith was saying because I liked hearing it I liked listening to it But also as he was saying and I was just thinking the whole time like this is not good This is not good that he's gassing us up so much, but yeah congrats max Congrats Hank. Yeah, I'm excited for next week. I got a future to on the Eagles and
Oh, also buy some merch. We got some new merch in the Philly store. Hank is wearing some of this. Does that make you nervous that it's Chiefs Eagles again and I can I can win a shitload of money? Oh, yeah. Okay. A lot of this sounds familiar. Yeah, a lot of it sounds very familiar. Hit him low, hit him high.
Those are both unnecessary roughness penalties. Yeah, those are sick. Okay, let's take a break and then we will talk AFC Championship game. We'll get back to the games in a second.

How do we want to do this PFT? Do we want to just do the ref thing at first or we want to talk about the game and then we can give ourselves a minute to talk about the rest? I was thinking that we would do 40 minutes on the spot. Yeah. 40 minutes on the fourth down spot. That game was a great game, incredible game. Like as close as it could be, it felt like to start the game, the bills were going to get boat raced, but they hung tough and
You know, let's just say it because everyone's complaining about it. The spot, I did not agree with the spot. I still will, uh, I'll still maintain that the chiefs, like again, we've said it a million times, say it a million times more. Like they have the championship DNA that big time plays big time moments. They will come through. And if they have a 50 50 thing, go their way, they will capitalize on it. That did suck though.
Because if the bills got that first down, it felt like they were going to go down and score and be up nine. And it was like, you won't even give Patrick Mahomes a chance to win this game. And I thought the spot sucked. But here's what really sucked about and for anyone who who didn't watch the game, I assume everyone who's listening did.
It was fourth and one on the Kansas City 41 in the fourth quarter. The bills are up 22-21. They do Josh Allen's sneak and the far line judge, I believe, ruled it pretty much close to a first down. The the the closer line judge had a completely different interpretation. They went to review. They didn't give him the first down. I thought it was a first down. I thought it was bullshit, but you know what was really bullshit?
is the fact that Sean McDermott and Joe Brady decided to keep running the same play that the Chiefs were clearly ready for all game. And that was the touch push that they didn't even do correctly. Don't even push. They just they just ram Josh Allen in the line.
That was coaching malpractice in my eyes, like stop running a play that's not working, and they kept running it, and it burned them on a fourth in one that, again, I thought they got it, but it was so close that it leaves it up to the review, and that sucked. And whichever ref got that spot and where they put it down, that's what they were gonna stick with. Because the review didn't show the ball, it didn't show anything, so it's hard to overturn that. You can guess where his body was gonna be. I thought it was a first down two in the moment,
Um, but yeah, the, the bills on just short yardage situations all day, not good, not good. Good. And that, that's why I, despite the fact that it, I just got fucked by the tush push. I can say that the people that are calling for it to be removed are losers because the bills tried to do the same thing. They can't do it. Everyone can try to do it. The best they looked on, uh, on that short yardage situation was when Josh had to jump over the pile. Right.
extend the ball in a bad play. That probably should have been a fumble. And he I think he did. He might have dropped the ball and picked it back up. Yeah. Big hands. But it was it's heartbreaking for Josh Allen. I know there'll be a lot of people who like he's he can't win the big one. If you watch that game and you're like Josh Allen can't win the big one. I mean they're
They, they, I think that really does come down to Sean McDermott had a really bad game again against the Chiefs, which happens every single year. Their defense got torched. I know that I know Benford went out early with a concussion and their, their secondary was thinned, has a little depth wrapped in play in the game, but
the Mahomes in that offense, like they scored more than 30 points the first time all year. Yeah. They had 8.3 yards per play on passing downs. They, it felt like guys were just wide open and the, and, and what really would drive me nuts if I was a bills fans outside of the ref stuff, which we've acknowledged is on that last drive where you have three time outs, you have two minutes or more than two minutes to try to go down the field and score touch on and win the game.
You did not get a single touch for James Cook, who was by far your best player on offense. Like James Cook had 139 yards receiving and rushing two touchdowns. He was averaging 8.6 yards per touch and he did not touch the ball.
On those six plays that you ran, one, you know, was a perfectly timed Steve Spagnola blitz where that's where it's the Chiefs. Like Spags is such a good coach and Andy Reed is such a good coach. They have that blitz that gave Josh no time. He throws up a prayer adult and concade who probably could have caught that. And I know people are saying Khalil Shakir was open on the backside. If you watch that play and you're like, how
Josh Allen had a guy in his face in less than a half a second. Yeah, he couldn't get the ball. He couldn't get the ball to secure on. Yeah. It was too much pressure. And Spaggs had, I think I counted three of those blitzes that were perfectly timed. Yeah. I don't know how he does it. It's, but it's, it's always perfect. It always causes the most disruption. It always changes the game. And it sucks for Buffalo because, yeah, you, you look like you're driving down the field with a one point lead. You're about to get that fourth down and everything's going to be different this time.
It sucks. And it's not different. And you just have to deal with the fact that my home is going to the Super Bowl again. Josh Allen and the Bills have to think about this for another year and hope that next time it's going to be different. Every year, I tell myself after this matchup, don't ever forget what happened. This is just always going to keep repeating. And then one calendar year later, I convinced myself the Bills are going to do it. And they are always so close. I guess it's not as bad as the 13 seconds.
What happened today? I don't know, man. Today was pretty brutal because like the 13 seconds was was was awful.
It goes into the whole storyline of the chiefs and the refs and everything. And look, I, I get it. Like that, that spot sucked. And, and the Xavier worthy review, uh, where there was a penalty on that place. So obviously it was, it cost them yards, but the chiefs were going to get a first down anyway, but that one was, was iffy and didn't really make sense to me.
I don't know. I just I'm not going to sit here and be like the Chiefs are only in the Super Bowl because of the refs. I feel like the bills like that place sucked but the bills game plan of defensively they weren't able to guard anyone and and offensively just ramming into Chris Jones and that defensive line on those short yards made no sense and it was just like
Like, I just don't get the James, like James Cook, that touchdown by James Cook was one of the coolest touchdowns I've ever seen. Yeah. He was in the Matrix. He floated. His body was contorted and he floated into the end zone and that guy didn't get, he didn't end up getting, and they also kind of went away from the run in the first half where a second half, you see them come out, they shove it down their throat, and here's another one. I get it. You can't second guess everything. Sean McDermott taking points off the board.
Basically, I mean, that's a 31-31 game if he doesn't take the points off the board. So essentially what happens is they score a touchdown at the end of the first half. The Chiefs get a penalty. The bills kick the extra point. So it's 21-17. There's a penalty. They're like, fuck it, we'll go for two. Now they don't get it. So instead of 21-17, it's 21-16. They score a touchdown in the second half.
because it's because they didn't get the first time they go for it again. So instead of being it, if you kick both extra points, it's 24 21. And now it's 22 21. Do the math. It would have been 31 31. Not to get all analytical on you, but part of the reason why I go for two is because there is a chance that you missed the extra point. Of course. So if you've already made the extra point, then that's a little bit less of a reason. Right. Don't take the points off the board. I just feel like
I feel like Sean McDermott just again, Andy Reed just out coached him and and I feel bad for Josh like yeah with their especially beginning the game. He was kind of erratic and could he have played better? Yeah, but he also has been asked to play basically perfect to give them a chance and it's yet again where his defense and his coaching just
They don't do enough. Yeah. It was, it was sad for Bill's fans. Sad for America too. Even though, listen, I appreciate Patrick Momes. I appreciate the Chiefs. I think we respect the Chiefs enough on this show. People will listen and take away, you know, people can listen to the show and they'll be people like you just glazed Josh Allen or you hate the Chiefs or I've been saying it for how, how many times have I said that the Chiefs, the reason why the Chiefs are the Chiefs is not because of the refs. It's because if you make a mistake, they take advantage of it. And that's what a championship team does.
Yeah. Like I don't know how more clear I can be that the Chiefs have that DNA. They every big play they need. They were six of 10 on third and fourth down. Patrick Mahomes uses legs perfectly today, scored two touchdowns. And then the best was we were having the debate in the cave when it was when the bills
So who went out of bounds? That was so stupid to them. Was it Pacheco went out of bounds? It stopped the clock with like a minute and a half left. I can't remember who went out of bounds, but it was very low football IQ. It was Pacheco. It was Pacheco. Like that was very un-cheese-like. So the Bills technically still had a chance. It was third and nine. And we're sitting there being like, should they kick the field goal? What should they do? And then I just stopped and was like, what are we talking about right now? They're going to get the first down. And that's what they did. They have a play that gets them a first down when they need to get a first down and ends the game.
Yeah. And when my homes is running with a ball, he was also tough as fuck today. Yeah. He was, he was putting his head down. He was trying to run through people. He, he did not do the tip toe on the sideline stuff. He didn't do any of the things that he's been criticized for. He played an awesome game of football. Andy Reed coached another great game of football. The Chiefs look like they, they might be unstoppable again. And now we've got a rematch, the Chiefs and the Eagles. Max, who do you think that Jason Kelsi's going to be rooting for?
I don't know. I am terrified of that. I think he's going to do like a like a house divided Jersey. He's going both. You can't do a house divided. You just got to sit it out. No, he'll be there. No, but I'm saying you can't like you can't wear a logo. Maybe the only thing that the only thing that makes me
He should be rooting for the Eagles. He should be rooting for the Eagles. He should be rooting for the Eagles. He should be rooting for the Eagles. He should be rooting for the Eagles. I agree.
When you think less of him, if he doesn't know. He was in the locker room. He felt the pain after they lost that. That's all his boys. And it's all those same boys have a chance to get revenge against the Chiefs. Also, I don't know like the storyline. He should be really like if not to give him podcast advice. But like, yeah, you root for the Eagles, dude.
Yeah. Yeah, I don't know. Like, I don't know what he ended up doing today. He was at the Eagles tailgate, but he said on like his show on Friday night that he was going to try and get to the Chiefs game. He was trying to go to both games somehow. I think that's not possible. Maybe second half.
Yeah, no, that's what I'm saying. I don't know what he ended up doing, but he was at the Eagles tailgate for ESPN game. I don't know what they do. They're pregame for the NFL. And then he was like, I really want to get to Kansas City, though, for Travis's game.
I think Travis is going to retire after this year. Either way, the way that you talked about that made me, made me think that he's going to. By the way, if they win, he, he will. By the way, more so to the Chiefs and preparedness Patrick Holmes. Travis Kelsey was taken away in this game.
The bills did a good job of taking him away and they're like, we're not going to let him beat us. And then Patrick Holmes, just Hollywood Brown, Xavier Worthy, DeAndre Hopkins. He found other ways with his feet. He found other ways to beat him. I got a couple crazy Patrick Holmes stats for you. So this is from Josh Dubois AP.
Patrick Mahomes has trailed in fourth quarters in nine playoff games. He has come back to win six and forced OT in two others before losing. He has a 132.2 rating with five touchdown passes. One TD run went down one to eight points in the fourth quarter of OT of playoff games, leading scores on 13 of 14 drives.
That's as money as you get. That's Patrick Mahomes being incredible. The best quarterback in football. That's not refs.
I know that people will say it's refs. That's not refs. We're about the blended clock. That was bullshit. We learned. Yeah, that the blended clock like who's that pain or Salvador Dali? The guy that pain. Yeah. The call the melting clocks. Yeah. So what the blended clock is just when the refs say we're going to combine the play clock with the clock before the two minute warning was explaining. It was like a half when it's half a second off.
You can just, you can just run it down. But then I see the zero. Yeah, I know. One and I don't see the zeros on the other. Makes no sense. Also, Patrick Mahomes has been a starter in the NFL for seven years. He has gone to five Super Bowls and his worst season is a loss in the AFC Championship game twice. Yeah, that's insane. That's insane. He's great. And again,
I thought that was the first down. I really did. And I'm so gutted for Josh Allen and the bills because I do think that if they get that first down,
Now, who am I kidding? The Chiefs probably find a way to win the game anyway. If they win that, if they get that first down, they win the Super Bowl. But it's just, it sucks. Being a Bills fan is torture. I, like, they, they, they go through torture. I don't know what else to say. Like, this is, it's, it's so brutal. And, and I really do, you said it a week or two ago, PFD, like,
If they lose in the playoffs, is there a chance Sean McDermott's on the hot seat? No, I think Sean McDermott's a really good coach, but kind of like Andy Reid in Philadelphia. Like, is there a chance that they've hit the wall and to get through the wall, they need something different?
Yeah, but then you got to make sure that whatever he put in place pre wall stays up. Yeah, because the bills, they were a bad team before Sean McDermott. I know. And then Josh Allen. So I, yeah, I don't think you fire him, but I just, it did feel like this game was a another winnable bills game that coaching and defense like it hurt them. And Josh could have been better. He was a little erratic at times, but he also made some fucking huge, that Matt Collins touchdown was a huge throw.
And, you know, they obviously were going to try to run the ball, and they did a really good job of that, and they just couldn't get stops. I mean, the Chiefs didn't score 30 points all season they did today. Do you think that Rex Ryan is going to publicly lobby for the Bill's job now? Probably. Like, it's coming home. Probably. What do we say to the people who are now saying they're not going to watch the Super Bowl?
Who's saying that? A lot of people online saying it's rigged, saying they're not going to watch Super Bowl. If it's rigged, if you truly believe it's rigged, then why don't you just make a fuckload of money betting on the Chiefs? Great question. That's me personally. That's all the time. Yeah. Something is rigged. Yeah. Just clean up. I also think people just don't like the matchup.
Yeah, no, they don't like to match it, but it's still the Super Bowl. I don't care. It's the Super Bowl. It's the last football game of the year. You're gonna watch Super Bowl. You gotta watch the Super Bowl. If you don't watch Super Bowl, you're just not American. Hank, why did you make a disgusted face when you said he's probably gonna propose?
I was just thinking, he wouldn't actually, after I said it, I realized Taylor would never allow it to happen, but I was thinking of confetti, like Boise State player, win the Super Bowl, propose, not retire. You think he could do better is what you're saying.
No, I just that that that thought of all that scene disgusted me, but I don't think I think they would do it and a little more classy way. I think she but I think he will retire and he will propose in the offices. I think she's going to propose to him. Mm hmm. Well, we just win Hank. What if we just win? We're not going. Oh, he just said you're cooked. Do you think it's going to be the refs or it's going to be patchful homes?
We just gotta win. The screenshot of the first down is going to be. It's also brutal that as good of a blitz as it was, and it was a very tough throw for Josh. It was an extremely catchable ball. It's not like he just had to throw it away or throw it up, and it was extremely catchable. And it would have been an all-time play that went down in the history books. But again, I still
I don't know how the...
the bills would have gotten any stops. I guess they'd have to score a touchdown there and then maybe the game would have been over. But it didn't feel like the bills were ever going to, like if it went to overtime, did you think the bills were going to get to stop them? It would have been poetic because of... Yeah, I know, but they couldn't get, they couldn't get off the field. That's why that first down, that fourth down was so big because they could have made it a two score game. I know. And then your defense has some room where they can, you know, they can let Patrick Mahomes do his thing and it doesn't kill you. I know.
It sucks. We're going to know everything. We're going to know everything there is to know about the ref that called that ball short and whatever connections he has to Kansas City or Texas Tech or Andy Reed. I really thought it was the first down. I really did. And I thought that one, that one ref like basically came out and did that, but it's just again, it's more like
I understand. But all Bill's fans should be mad at the refs and they should complain about the refs and they have every right to be mad at the refs and talk about it and not assume about the refs. I removed a little from it that I can be like maybe just don't run the same play that was getting nothing over and over. Yeah. You weren't even running the tush push correctly. You weren't pushing. I agree. I thought he got the first down as well. And it was clear the Chiefs had figured it out. Like the Chiefs were defending against it so well.
Yeah. I thought they got it, but I didn't think that there was anything on the replay that was like definitive enough for them to say. We're going to overrule what we just, whatever ref said on the field. And that's, then the Chiefs are just really fucking good. And that's what they do. They capitalize on everything and my homes makes big plays.
And you're right about Mahomes running like tough. He wasn't doing any of the trying to get hit late or trying to dance around the sideline. He was just, you could tell like he was jacked up on some of those runs. One thing you can say negatively about Mahomes today is he had the worst spike in the history of football. That's true. After the touchdown. That's a fact. He was too jacked up. He couldn't spike it properly. That's a fact. All right. Anything else on this game? I mean,
I just feel really bad for for Bill's fans. And I just feel really bad for Josh. I want a it just sucks because people will people will be like, Hey, Josh Allen sucks. Like though he's just keeps running up against my homes and like he he's playing to a level that should win games. I just think the bills keep kind of getting out coach in these games.
Yeah, like there's the margin for errors so small in these games and Sean McDermott makes a couple of these errors Chasing points early running the same play that's not working over and over challenging that one catch. Yeah, like there's just these these moments where it's like if you just can
do a better
They just, you can't make any mistakes against a team like the Chiefs. They're so fucking good. They're so well coached back from homes is just, he's money in the playoffs. That's what he does. Chiefs are just a wagon and they're going for history. First three P ever, which would be insane. Yeah, they're going to get it. Congrats. Jax, you stand in the way.
I know we have to, we got to take them down. We got to take them down for, for Hank's legacy really. And you've also for your, for your legacy too, Max, because it could change their, it could change their, well, how many, how many of these big games has Hank lost? You wasn't Philly Hank until recently. Only lost to the Eagles. No, I mean, but this just tears down everything the Patriots built.
It's but not if not homes keeps winning. If you keep winning, but I mean, a three P is three P is a three P is the best team in history of the NFL. But if your team's ever done a three P a three P would be tough against the Eagles too, because two of those would be against you. Yeah. Now that'd be tough. That would be tough. It would be known like people would think first of them beating the Eagles in the Super Bowl. Just win. Just win. If the Eagle, everyone knows lose this game. I will have lost 67% of the Super Bowls on this podcast.
That's since I've been here. Yeah. Since I've been here. Mm-hmm. Yeah, that's a lot. We're gonna say Hank. That's a lot of podcasts of Super Bowls. The Eagles are gonna lose. Shut up, Hank. What, see, now what I need you, you're just a fucking dick. Now I'm beginning to think you're not actually an Eagles fan, Hank. Well, what was, last week, last week you were, you were, you know... I was, I just, I, I call it how I see it.
I knew that game was going to be a blowout. I also thought that commanders were going to beat the Lions. I want the Eagles to win. I just it's impossible rooting against the Chiefs is legitimately like rooting against LeBron on the heat. Like it reminds me the same way. I root as hard as I can against them and they just win again and again and again.
Yeah, I wanted this game for Josh so bad. And I was just like, I should have just been on the Chiefs because that's the smart play. So what are you going to do with your future past from homes under a field? I'm going to ride it out, but I'm riding as well, Max. I'm not cashing out. All right. Go bird. I'm going with you. I'm riding with you. Go. The Chiefs are just really fucking good. So are the and they're so well coached. I just rather die than than not. Then root for the Chiefs, but I added. If you didn't have a future, would you bet the Chiefs? No.
I did it last year in the Super Bowl and it was a great experience. I'll just bet like no, because it was the whole time. It was just like, Oh, Wilma Holmes is going to win this game. Such a ticket. Why would you do that? Why'd you kick a man? I was just thinking that's what I did for that Super Bowl.
Do we give enough credit to the Chiefs? Fuck the Chiefs. Okay. I think they're just really good. I don't know what it like. I mean, the highest compliment you can get as a fan of a sports team is having everybody in the country hate your team. Yeah. And the refs, it sucks that that happened. The fourth in one, that sucks. That's
They're just going to replay that over. That's why it's like, man, I had to bills it like that. They just invent new ways to just what is it? What is maximum? You know, villain hero. I know there were some meme of like the Eagles and the Chiefs playing the Patriots into Super Bowl and it was one of those like America maps of like what every team. Oh, yeah. Yeah. The part of my take account to be that as long. Yeah. Yeah. Live long enough to be the villain. Yeah. Whatever the hell the saying is.
Yeah, if you're chief, you realize that people you've broken so many cities across through a rampage that you know that they're going to hate you. That's how that's how sports is. We all yearn to be hated. Josh is going to get one, right?
He asked, but this team was like, I know they were rebuilding, but their defense, obviously Benford going out in the first quarter was bad, but like defense was fairly healthy considering how unhealthy they've been in the last couple of years. And they have sees just so goddamn hard. How did you, how did you make that map means? What data did you sort through for that? You either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain. Got it off Google.
Okay. Yeah. And now it's flipped again where the Eagles are the hero again. Cause it's a map of everyone rooting for the Eagles and the Super Bowl against Patriots and everyone rooting against for the Chiefs and the AFC Championship against the Patriots and then everyone rooting for the Bills versus Chiefs and everyone rooting for the commanders against the Eagles. What do you think the breakdown on the new map is going to be though? Cause I think we might have a couple of States that are chiefs besides just Kansas and maybe Missouri. I think, I think Texas might be rooting for the Chiefs.
Yeah, Dallas. Houston isn't. Houston is not. Yeah. No, it's a bigger city too. That is a bigger city. Yeah, I don't. DC certainly isn't written for the Eagles. No, no. I don't think anyone's.
Although, yeah, no, DC giants certainly are not. Yeah. Yeah. Sake on winning. Yeah. So yeah, there's a couple spots. Niners. Niners, fans hate the Eagles. I think they also hate. They've lost twice to the Chiefs and the Super Bowl, Max. Chiefs are just destroying everyone. This is what they do.

Okay. Uh, Oh, whose line is anyway Super Bowl 59? I haven't looked. I said it was just going to be under a field goal.
Is chiefs, are they favored? What's the line? One and a half. Chiefs, one and a half. That's probably going to move a little bit. Okay. It's usually never stays the same for the suit, but it's also never going to get to a field goal either way. That's never going to be. You think chiefs minus three is never going to have out of bounds? I think it's never going to happen. I think people will gobble that up. Yeah. I think they would gobble that up in a second.
over under 49 and a half. Gotta probably bet the over because it's the Super Bowl. Yeah, it's un-American. Get it all on draft Kings. I'm gonna bet, I'm gonna bet Tails tonight just to feel like I'm locked in the national anthem. Yeah. You should be able to bet on the flyover too. Yeah. All right. So coaching news.
Liam Cone is the new head coach for the Jacksonville Jaguars, and it was quite a sorted affair on Thursday. It was after we recorded, we actually got a little bit of it in there, but then more details came out. He spurned the box. He basically, the timeline goes like this. Liam Cone took the first interview with the Jaguars, actually at the glazers telling him like, Hey, go take this interview.
Came back. Balki was still the head, uh, the GM of the Jaguars. The offer was probably in the, I don't know, five, six million, whatever you want to call it range. Uh, he talks to the bucks handshake deal. Bucks are going to make him the highest paid coordinator, offensive coordinator in the league. Part of the handshake deal is he can't go for a second interview with the jags. Uh,
Trent Balki gets fired. Sean Khan calls up Liam Cohen says, Hey, the price just went up. We're going to pay you 13, 14 million dollars a year. Liam Cohen's now stuck because he made this handshake deal that if he takes a second interview, he's not going to be the highest paid coordinator. So he goes to Jacksonville, basically tells the bucks, Hey, I'm going to come in on Thursday to sign my new contract.
Uh, doesn't take any calls from them tells them that he's tending to a family emergency. Uh, word gets out that he actually is in Jacksonville interviewing for the Jaguars job. Uh, the Jaguars are also trying to keep it under rack wraps because they had to, uh, clear the Rooney rule and get another minority candidate in the building. So they do that on Thursday morning.
Get Liam Cone to agree to be the head coach. Then Liam Cone, I think picks up a phone call from Todd Bowl is like, Hey, I'm at the hospital with my kid. And also this Jaguar situation is changing. Takes a Jaguars job and the bucks are pissed. He used the term material change. We haven't seen that in a couple of years.
Yeah, I don't ever fault the guy for taking a head coaching job because there's very limited in supply. If you get the opportunity to do it, you probably want to do it and you also get paid a shitload more money. He probably could have handled this a little bit better, but when you basically he went back to the box.
And then the Jaguars were like, we understand that there's a guy that you really hate. Yeah. And I know that we said we weren't going to fire him, but we want you so much that we're going to fire this guy just to make you happy. And then at that point, they now, if he didn't take that job, they just fired a guy for no real reason. And that was probably like a big selling point for me. I don't have to work with that guy anymore.
He's getting paid insane money. Ben Johnson money is what they said, which is insane money as well. The Bears paying Ben Johnson insane money, but it's unprecedented for a first time head coach. It's also unprecedented for first time head coach to be able to pick their GM. I don't really blame Liam Cohen at all in this. I know that that's probably look like scumbag behavior, but
The, I don't know what choices he had in the fact that the box shouldn't have made it contingent on not taking the second interview. If you're an employer, you should let your employees take those interviews. Go see what is out there, especially in this business when you know that guys are going to try to, you know, get dream jobs, only 32 of them.
If they didn't make it contingent on him not taking the second interview, I think he probably would have been more forthright about it, but he was stuck in a position where if he takes a second interview, he could potentially lose his job with the box and not get the jags interview job. I think if anything, he's guilty of being a bad friend and a bad texture. Bad texture probably could. Listen, could have handled it better, but I also go back to like
NFL franchises will cut players anytime they want. They will like our our colleague, John Gruden, who worked for the box, signed an extension, and then got fired four months later or whatever it was. Or like, look at Bobby Sloak, the coordinator for the Texans after last season. Yeah. He was one of the hot names out there getting all the interviews. He decides to go back to Houston.
The next season happens. His name is now not in good standing with the rest of the NFL. He gets, he gets fired by the Houston Texans. Lou and Arumo got this was the hottest name after the Bengals go to the Super Bowl. He just got fired by the Bengals. Like I, I just think it's such a cutthroat business that if you don't look out for yourself, you're kind of like, you can't be a nice guy in the NFL.
That's really because and you know what the craziest part is to like I understand top bowls is mad if the bucks didn't make the playoffs this year top bowls probably would have been fired for Liam Cohen. Yeah, but you know what I I Accept the fact that the bucks are gonna be pissed at him. Yeah. No, of course. They've already had the best But I'm just like should be like this guy is a snake. I'm fucking pissed at him I hope we beat the shit out of him. I hate that guy
That's a, that's a complete, pre-seasonable response from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers have, but just like big picture. I like, yeah, it's a hate coaching job. But people like calling him to take it. Yeah. People calling him like a scumbag. I'm just like, I don't know where's, where's that same energy when a team does that to a player or team does that to a coach.
Cause that happens literally all the time. And now it's the one time it's flipped where a coach has kind of fucked over a team. I don't know. It's just the NFL's cutthroat. It did play out like a soap opera though. Yeah, it was incredible. Succession meets eastbound and down. I just, I feel like the NFL, you just can't expect like loyalty and feelings just don't exist. Cause everyone's, they know that like the minute things go bad, you're going to get fired.
And the and you have no guarantee of having a job opening like this again, especially with this money. And really, if you want to blame anyone, it's probably shotgun probably should have just fired Trent bulky on on Black Monday when everyone expected it. And this would have made it a lot easier. But to be fair, he was told by Trent bulky that it would be a bad decision to fire to fire him. Yeah.
Yeah, I think that bad information. I think like on a personal level, I think, you know, people in the bucks building should be upset. But I also, again, I think that if the bucks had a chance to do something like this to a coach or someone they probably would, whatever makes their team better, they're going to do. So why can't Liam Cohen do whatever makes his life better? You know, the only reason why I'm mad is because Baker
because Baker has to have another offensive coordinator. And they're going to run that fucking graphic next year where it's the roller coaster, all the OCs that he's been with. They've gone far. This guy left. He got caught. He got traded, whatever, et cetera, et cetera. That's just, that's another thing that he's going to have to do. Also, uh, limb cone has jumped around. I think he said this is a fifth different job in five years.
You hired that guy. You knew that that guy could do this. You saw the resume. It's not crazy to be like, wow, I thought he would make roots here and stay forever. Some people convince themselves somehow that it's going to work for them, even though it never has. Will it work for us?
Yeah, I don't think it might. I also think like the Jags, they just got in a spot where, you know, Ben Johnson said no to them. I don't even know if Mike Vable interviewed with them and they like had to do a panic move where the price. They basically box themselves into being like, we have to fire Trent Palki and pay an insane amount of money so that we can get someone that is sought after instead of having a situation where we end up with like the sixth option and everyone's like, wow, the Jags really fuck this up. We did.
Would it be totally crazy to think like Doug Peterson would have been a good idea. Keep him around. Keep him around. He's the second best in terms of winning percentage in the history of the franchise. That's true. So it was crazy though. The whole thing was crazy. I just thought it was very funny that people were like,
how could anyone ever do this? It's the NFL. Yeah, it's good. It happens. Do you think when a coach gets in front of a college coach, does a press conference, like, I want to be here for the rest of my life? And then he gets an offer the next day and he jumps. We've seen that a million times. Like if the Bucks had hired Lane Kiffin to be their offensive coordinator. Yeah. And then he left after a year. Would you be pissed at Lane? Or would you be like, I can't believe that I let the scorpion ride on my back across the river? Right. Right.
And then when Lane Kiffin gets left on a tarmac at USC, that's the other way. It just goes, I feel like everyone just cuts everyone in the back in the NFL and it sucks, but it's just the truth of it. That reminded me of the time that Al Davis fired Lane and had a whole PowerPoint presentation on an overhead projector. Yeah. And he called the media into his room to watch his overhead projector and outline the reasons why he just fired Lane Kiffin. So that rocked. Good segue. Speaking of Al Davis, Jerry Jones is in his late Al Davis years.
because he hired Brian Schottenheimer, which was his offensive coordinator this year. So the Cowboys, basically the Cowboys off season has gone blocking Mike McCarthy from doing any interviews, having everyone believe that they're going to resign Mike McCarthy, not resigning Mike McCarthy, then doing like a half ass search for head coach, calling Dion once. And then Jerry Jones walking down the hallway and being like,
Hey, you, what's your name again? You want to be the head coach? And now Brian Schottenheimer said coach and in Jerry even said one of the weirdest quotes ever. Brian Schottenheimer is known as a career assistant. He ain't Brian no more. He is now known as the head coach of the Dallas Cowboys. That's his name.
He Brian. No more. That's you also left out Jerry Jones putting off a Emmy worthy performance and land man. Yeah. That was also a big part of their off season. Yeah. Well, I think it goes to show you that the Cowboys job probably probably not as desirable as Jerry Jones thinks that it is.
Yeah, I mean, they didn't even, did they even do a coach search? I don't know if they did. They kind of did. They interviewed a few guys, but if you're Jerry Jones, you, your big cell has always been, you get to be the head, head ball coach of the Dallas Cowboys. And now I think most football guys are like, that's not
necessarily a great thing because that means that Jerry Jones is really the head of the entire operation. And I'm just, I have to learn how to be Jerry Jones's bitch while also pretending to be the alpha on this team. When every player on the team understands that like when their boss, their coach is talking to them.
He's not really their final boss. Yeah. He's not the boss boss. And this goes to, I've been saying it for a while now because I thought they weren't going to fire Mike McCarthy or part ways with them. Jerry Jones, the Jerry Jones from the 90s and the Jimmy Johnson stuff and Barry Switzer and then bringing in Parcels. That guy doesn't exist anymore. He just wants a coach that will just follow whatever he says.
And guess who's going to follow whatever he says, the career assistant who is down the hall, who's like, here, you be the head coach. He doesn't. Thank you for your opportunity, sir. Yeah. Ever since Bill Parcells, he's not going to hire someone who is going to have that alpha energy and be like, this is my show.
He's going to hire people. Jason Garrett, Mike McCarthy, who didn't have, who sat out for a year. Guys who are going to basically do what Jerry says and be like, thank you, Jerry, for giving me a life. Yeah. It's like a situation where your head coach is speaking to you after practice, like taking e-boys. And he's like, the buck stops here with me. I'm the boss. I'm in charge of everything. And then his hat gets blown off by Jerry Jones helicopter as it lands on the field. Yeah.
Yeah, this has to make you PFT and Max. Oh, he's leaving. He's taking a piss. I think it's a great hire by the way. I think you guys got to be both very pumped. I think it's a disaster. You just have to ask the fans of teams that shot in Hymer has coached for in the past, what they think of them.
Yeah. Now, it could be wrong. I've been wrong before. I was wrong last year about Dan Quinn. I should have had him second on. I should have him first instead of, but I have him like third. Yeah. But I've been wrong before. I don't always get it right. But if you're asking me right now, I love it. I love the sire. And people are bringing up like, oh, well, everyone thought Dan Campbell was crazy.
This hire could work. I think it's more of the fact that the process made no sense because it doesn't feel again like they did. It felt like Jerry Jones just called up Dion Sanders and was like, do you want the job? He's like, no. He's like, all right. I think you talked to Brian Sean. Yeah. Who Pete Carroll got hired by the Raiders, which is awesome.
because Pete Carroll is it's going to be fun to have him back there. He will be on week one. He will be the oldest coach to coach in NFL game. I think he beats Romeo Canal by like six months who is the oldest who is the oldest right now when he was interim for the Texans. But the real story with Pete Carroll being in the Raiders is that
Jim Harbaugh and Pete Carroll are destined to just go against each other. I love that they, no matter what, they will always follow each other. This time it's Pete Carroll following Jim Harbaugh. Obviously, we had Stanford and USC and their famous dustups, the biggest upset ever 41 and a half point favorites. Then Pete Carroll goes to the Seahawks. Jim Harbaugh goes to the Niners and now Jim Harbaugh to the Chargers and Pete Carroll the Raiders. They just
They have to be together. And it's not just those two that hold division rocks. Yeah. That whole division. You got Andy Reid and Sean Payton. Yeah. And then Harbaugh and Pete Carroll. Yeah. That's great. That's going to be great. I'm excited about that. I also like, I like Pete Carroll teaming up at Tom Brady because Pete Carroll, he's not, he might be on his own TB 12 thing because he does not look like the oldest coach. No, he's, he's young as fuck.
Yeah, he's like, as young, his body years, his true body years, if you were to measure it and whatever shit Dana White got extracted from his blood that one time. Yeah. He's probably about as young as me or you. Yeah. I think that might actually just say that we're very old, but we meet somewhere in the middle. Yeah. Happy birthday week, by the way. What? Yeah. Birthday week. Birthday week. That is our last week in our thirties. I'm not freaking out about it. No, I haven't thought about it at all. I've definitely been freaking out about it a little bit.
Yeah. Memes is shaking his head. He's so happy to get up. Happy birthday. It's not our birthday yet. I have to get up three times. It's not our birthday yet. Actually, tune into Friday's show because I think PFT and I will, by the way, subscribe to the YouTube. Please subscribe to the YouTube and watch us on the Friday show. We'll probably do the kiss.
Cuz Thursday's my birthday and Friday's yours. That's right. Yeah, so we'll probably do the kiss midnight exclusive to YouTube only with a tradition Yeah, we kiss every year at the stroke of midnight the stroke of midnight between January 30th and 31st Yeah, it's very weird. It's fine. You know what? We just got to get through like the week where everyone says I you guys are old and then we'll be young again So like we're not 50 40 plus
Yeah, it's cool. Hey, you're fucking like 32. No, I know that. Whoa, whoa, whoa, not yet. Having panic attacks at 32. 31. You're going to be 32. Panic attacks at 31. Max is going to be 30. Yeah, I'm over it. In two years? This year. Oh, means you're like 40.
Next month. You're 30? Yeah, next month. Oh my God, we got to get it. All right, we got to get an intern this year. We got to get younger. We got to get one young guy here. Jack's young, change young. Yeah, I know, but we need to get, we're going to do it right this year. We're going to intern for the whole summer and we got to get, we can't say age, but we need a teenager. Yeah.
part of my drink. We need so, we need someone whose parents are really cool and they can sign the waiver. We use 16 year old. Yep. Next generation. We're cool. I'm just kidding. We're not going to get a 16 year old. 17 is fine. Unless they're like really good. Yeah. Unless they're really funny. 17 if you're listening to 17. Big Ken, big catademics. Yeah, you can get in here. We want a kid who's like, I want the Rizzler. I'll just say it. We can't afford the Rizzler. The spot's open for the Rizzler.
I wanted kids walking in here being like, yeah, I started listening to you guys when I was nine. Speaking of the Rizzler, what are the Saints doing? Are they going to hire a coach? I think Mike McCarthy. Okay. Feels like it. That makes sense. Yeah. Dennis Allen's now the DC in Chicago. But whoever signs up to coach the Saints, you are, you're walking into cap Hill. Yeah.

Noah, the question that everyone really wants to know is Saturday night, will you be drinking champagne and getting fucked up? I will not be drinking champagne. I will definitely be getting fucked up. Okay. Are you going to be losing your phone? I was thinking about just getting a new phone on super, like, that's a good. No, that's not good. Wait, what you're doing? What's your thoughts? I'm concerned, Max. The, I don't think, you know what? Enjoy the win. No, you got to be mentally. I don't know why I was thinking. Right now you're not mentally. Why not just save all your energy for Sunday?
What? Like, if I were you like, well, the night before Super Bowl is fun. Yeah. Nobody is. No, I'm not going to. I'm not going to get it last time. I'm not going to get his drunk. He tried to fight you. That was. No, I just said that I could fight the funniest side of my life. I would sign up for that. The thing about me is I beat the fuck out of hand. Yeah. No, I'm not going to get that drunk. Okay. I'm not going to do that. I never said that. Are you going to, are you going to creep out any mentalists?
in a puking it over. No, no. Shut up memes. He was having a ball right now. Oh, man. That was something. No, he's going to make good decisions. Who's going to go to his blackout drunk the night before the Super Bowl into Orleans? Who's going to go to the Super Bowl with you? Me smacking around. Love that. That's a hell of a crew. That's a hell of a crew.
All right. Let's do who's back. Does everybody know here what season it is? Basketball season? That's right. But it's also tax season, which we all know Hank is not a fan of. How are you feeling about that, Hank?

Ariana, Sabalina. Notorious, best women's tennis player, number one seed. We were watching this during the dark stream at 2.30 in the morning. I bet a lot on Sabalina because of my walks. She's so good. She's the best to do it. Got smoked by Madison Keys, American 19th seed in the tournament. Major upset, USA, Aussie Open champion, America's back.
I liked that Hank. That's very good. Very good for the country. Very good Hank. What happened to Novak? He got hurt. He has like a crazy hip contusion. Yeah. He tweeted out a picture of his MRI. And I looked at it and I was like, oh, I see. I had no idea what the fuck it was. Also, he basically wanted the whole thing because he beat out grass. Wait, would tweeting out a picture of your, isn't that HIPAA? Healing care about that shit. Yeah, right. Hey, Hank, you want to recap your dark stream at all? It was great.
The dark tree went well, yeah, I went a lot better than I thought. I got a triple, we split it up into three legs, 180, 180, 141. The second leg was always going to be help, which I thought was going to take a lot of time. I thought it was going to be, you know, I was tired. We're going to have guests come in. You guys are going to come in. Anyone can throw darts if they hit two. I always have to hit the third one. I had a 180 in my own in the first hour, which was a miracle on its own. Then max.
hit two triple twenties and I just stepped up and hit the third one first time. Absolute miracle if we're being completely honest. And then PFT came in the morning with Blake. He, you know, at his request, we're turning him into a golf stream, hit a hole in one in the first five times, no big deal. So the stream I was expecting to like
I was again dreading it. I thought it was still going to be going right now. Like I thought I was going to be living at this office, you know, doing this podcast and being like, all right, see you guys. I'm going to go to sleep here, wake up, continue the stream. So when I got home on Saturday afternoon and I was done, it was, it was a great relief. Thank you to everyone who tuned in. It was, it was honestly fun. We had it. We had a good time. Liam Blutman.
Do you got the game dart? He just hung out just to hang out like he loved I got trying to tell him like you don't have to stay dude, and he's like no I'm chilling darts or ball Yeah, yeah game dart was a touching award I was I was bouncing in and out on Friday night when you got started keeping tabs on I got oiled up Yeah, when I yeah, I was about to say when I tuned in I was I was greeted with Hank just completely shirtless covered in oil and
throwing darts for about an hour. Can you explain that to me? Everyone in the chat was like, oil up max, oil up pug, oil up hang. Somebody said boil pugs. Someone said boil pug. Yeah. And I was one leg in and I was like, if we get the second leg done before Sabalenka starts, which was at 2.30 in the morning, I was like, I'll get oiled up.
I think that was not gonna happen and it happened. So I, man, in my word, I got oiled up. Yeah, you were glistening. Love it. It also made the darts so oily. Yeah, which was... No duh. But like, and so hard to throw. Yeah. It was a big detriment to... You crushed it, Hank. You crushed it. Yeah, my arm, I think if my left arm is definitely pretty injured, if we had gotten another like six to eight hours, I probably would have been like Tommy John too.
I tuned in on Friday night when I got home from the movies and I like almost instantly you hit your first 180 and I was so pumped for you. What about the sleep talking?
Yeah, well, I was worried about the sleep talking. I wasn't even planning on sleeping, but I stayed up. It was like eight o'clock. I was getting, we turned the chat, we turned the stream over every 12 hours. You have to like start a new stream just so that it stays live on YouTube. And the overnight vibes were great. We were watching tennis, having a good time. Evelyn was positive. We switched over at like seven a.m. and I hadn't slept, so I was maybe a little irritated too. And Evelyn was so negative and they were so annoying.
just and that's when I realized I was like I'm fatigued I'm tired like I'm not we had the rocks on 10 minute edge where I got a mulligan I didn't get through it and I was like I need to take a break I'm gonna take a nap two hours and then we'll you know we'll finish this thing didn't put on any mouth tape and my friend Kurt who you guys have all met
He was in the chat at like 4am, like he just popped in and was like, oh, what's up? And I was like, oh, Kurt. So it must have just been on the top of my mind. And in my sleep, I was yelling. I was just like, Kurt.
Which was my biggest fear, because I've gone into trouble before where I just, I don't know why I say what I say. I don't have any recollection of the dreams or what's going on in my head when I say it. But I have woken up many times with people being like, what the fuck was that? Who was this person? What is that about? And I'm like, I have no idea. So I'm happy it was just Kurt. That's where it's like, shit gets weird in my sleep. I was worried about it and that was why. That's very funny. Yeah. He probably thinks you're dreaming about him.
No, I text them up. I was like, yeah, yeah, but it's always like it's like one of those random things. It's like it's not there's no rhyme or reason. It's just like it was probably because I was like talking about him or to him like late at night. And then it was just like, yeah, yeah, he's the last thing in your head. Yeah. Okay. PFT your who's back. My who's back in the week is going to be not understanding jokes. Hmm.
Because Hank has been on this goon-a-side for the last five days. And when he explained it, I mean, Big Cat, we're just like, wait, what's the joke? I don't think it's very funny. It might be funny. I don't know. Yeah, I don't know either. I don't think it's funny.
You think it's funny. No, I don't basically what happened was if you're way too deep online. Yeah, no, you probably know this a guy there's a there's a coffee shop in Arizona where the the baristas were bikinis a guy got caught on video jerking off while trying to order coffee He became a meme and then he killed himself. So it's not funny
Agreed and not funny at all. But he keeps bringing up the gooners. I was like, did you guys see about the gooners? I then earlier, like 30 minutes ago, Hank was like, they held a gooner. They had a gooner. Hank explained to us last week. And we just sat here. We're like, wait, we're that's not the guy died. That's fucked up. And he was just like, yeah, I probably should have said this out. I do think it's one of those things just needs to stay online. You think he's going to be cremated? Again, like I can't help memes make me laugh. And sometimes they're they're messed up.
Hank, who's going to eulogism? Yeah, exactly. It's a sad story. Not understanding jokes. Did I tell you guys the one that I had? But the goon-roll. The goon-roll, the cementary. Yeah. Yeah. The one I had last week that
Made me want to kill myself was our good friend Keith Yandall who's now part of our school sports shout out spit and chiclets. They've added yans I was talking to yans about mini golf and like now that he's part of Barcelona's like we got to get you in all these things and I was like you got to come and do March Madness with us and he replied and he's like when is that and I was like it's March and he's like yeah, I fucking know I was joking and I was like I want to
I might just kill myself and leave it as a suicide note. But to be fair, you were texting with Jans and in your mind, it was like 50% like texting with Biz. Yeah, but he, maybe, maybe there's just a bit. Jans is got like, he said to me, and then he made worse. He's like, I think he's like, I used to get all the Canadian dudes in the locker room with that one. I think you're the first American I've ever gotten. And I was like, God fucking damn it. So yeah, Jans is the best. So hopefully he'll be here for March Madness, which is in March.
Also a little bit in April. Yeah. Speaking of which, by who's back, National Sports Podcast, college basketball, college basketball is back for me feast week. I love college basketball, but now that the football is over, weekends are for a lot of America, college basketball, quick thoughts on college basketball. Duke is a problem, but the ACC fucking sucks. So I'm just going to tell myself that they're good only because they're killing everyone in the ACC.
The SEC is so goddamn loaded. Auburn and Alabama are both really fucking good. Tennessee's good. Florida's really, really good Houston's the same team every year. And I'm trying to think what other thoughts Kansas, Kansas. Well, Kansas, that was one of I hate Kansas so much now. That was they were, they were up six going to the line with 18 seconds left and somehow lost that game in double overtime.
Is that worse than what A&M did though? A&M was no because I shouldn't have even said Kansas also in regulation. They were up three and they got a five second call with two timeouts.
Yes, A&M. I like A&M. I think A&M is going to be a good tournament team, but yeah, they, they completely choked against Texans. That was a meltdown. That was bad. Total meltdown. And then also, uh, for the sickos and perverts out there, I have started to believe in the Wisconsin Badgers who are ranked and, uh, their offense is actually awesome. And they WAP threes. And so get ready for me to have my heart broken on that because I actually believe that they could make a run.
which they won't and you guys get to watch that on live stream. Also last one I had was Villanova. Dead next. So when you told me to bet Eric Dixon, uh, player of the year and I bet it was that a bad bet? Bad bet. I didn't even get a week of thinking that was a good incorrect Yukon Yukon.
it was a hundred a one i'd like if you give someone a hundred a one you can't be like all what the fuck it's a hundred a one of obviously was going to win bill nova was supposed to make the tournament you said
Yeah. And then they started sucking again, but it's okay. By the way, people are mad about Dan Hurley. If you missed it last week, he yelled in a ref, don't turn your back on me. I'm the best fucking coach in the league or in the country. Jay Billis did a whole preachy thing where he's like, this is just you're being disingenuous. Yeah, he did a preachy thing. I can't say this clearly enough.
college basketball needs asshole coaches. That's what it was built on. It's the, the players change the transfer portal has changed everything. You don't know who you're rooting for. I need a Bayheim. I need a coach K. I need a, like, as much as I hate a coach K. He has that, that like, I hate him. I want to root against him. Dan Hurley is that if you hate him, that's good for college basketball. So I want him to do whatever he wants to do. He's also being just as hard on his own players as he breaths.
Although he had a great line. Was it, was it against Villain over the, the carabin missed the free throws? Yes. Yeah. Carabin missed two free throws, great free throw shooter.
