Let me be the first to wish you and your family a very happy Thanksgiving. We start in the windy city where Jordan Addison Ray was red hot, tick-tocking around the field past the Bears defense. Minnesota kept finding the end zone when Jalen Naylor hardly even know her teach. Little guy humor there scored in the second quarter.
Long Island ice TJ Hockinson exposed a lot of really bad decisions by the Bears coaching staff. But just when you thought it was over Caleb Williams, Roshan Moreno Johnson for a touchdown and the Bears took it to overtime where John don't call me Tony Romo sealed the win for the Vikings Vikings 30 Bears 27
Over to New York where Tommy Danny DeVito got beaten by the Mayman. Ahh! Fighter of the G-Men. Ohh! Throwing blocks of downfield runs. Master of Italian hand gestures for everyone. Mayman. Mike Evans Bacon was getting six degrees of separation from defensive backs as White and Tucker both scored. The first time a White Tucker was prominently featured since Silence of the Lambs.
The Giants love the lotion on its skin, or else it cuts the hose again. Box 30, the Giants seven. We head down to Houston where the Texans got in the holiday mood starting the scoring with a touchdown to Cade Stover top stuffing into the end zone. The Titans were rolling until Jimmy Ward manual flipped the game and it looked like the Bryce was right for the Texans, but not so fast as Irish Chig.
Oh, Conquo. Oh, Conquo. Dancing the end zone, conquering the six flags and seven nation army of Texans. CJ Orlowski sealed the deal as he was unable to color between the lines, stepping out for a safety dance. Titans 32, Texans 27.
We go to the nation's capital where DB Cooper Rush has hijacked the Cowboys season, escaping with hundreds of thousands of dollars. Caveante Turpentine took the polish off the commander's season after he did a whack and ran 99 yards for a touchdown. But contrary to Mike Florida was reporting, Washington wasn't dead yet, as Terry French on McClure and read for a touchdown, only to have Austin, old man and the seabert
put it into this depressing short story by missing a hook and making a really nice catch completely disappear. The Gobblies 34, the Commander's 26. We head over to Miami, down to Miami, for Henry Lockwood on the scene for the Patriot's Dolphin. Yes, boom, down to Miayo, where Jameo and the Pats took on the Dolphins. The scoring started early for the Finns after Mr. and Mrs. Janu-Nanu-Nanu-Nanu-Nanu-Smith.
Found his way into the endzone for six. During an interview after the first quarter when asked, what do you expect to see in the rest of the game? Mike McDaniel answered, two was goin' off the rails for two TDs to dev in a chain! And he was right!
Drake may have showed more flashes of brilliance including a fourth down scramble out of the pocket touchdown pass to Austin tongue in Yohupa. But the Pats couldn't block a cold or stop a slant and fell to the mighty Finns 34-15. Thanks Hank. In Carolina where Noah's Grey Anatomy and Dr. Karimi Hunt had several long running series and it looked like the Chiefs were going to take the Panthers to the ER on Sunday.
But they forgot about Bryce Young Thug, who has been living life like a beginner, but this is only the beginning. As the Panthers clawed back. We'll see if he's allowed in Atlanta, week 18 boom. They got a Rico charge, huh? Rico. Rico. But they left too much time for Patrick Mahomes and Spencer Schrader-Tots, who hit the game winning kick. And how do the Chiefs keep getting away with this? Chiefs 30, Panthers 27.
Out in Las Vegas where Cortland Sutton on the dock of the bay and Bodus Redding Nicks produced nothing but hits on Sunday. The Raiders need a miracle Abdul as he scored Sunday showing signs of life for their offense. But the Raiders kept going back to will let's get it on for five field goals leaving Raiders owner Mark van Gavis unhappy with his team's record for another year. The Broncos 29 the
and Seattle for an NFC West clash as Michael McDonald reminded people what a fool believes he sees as some people wrote off this Seattle Seahawks defense early in the season. James Connor Roy and the Conheads were bottled up early as Kyler Bill Murray begged his offense to Rushmore unable to get the ground game going. Jackson Smith and the Jig Bob
Jack Jackson Smith, the jig bop bop bop. Jackson Smith, the jig bop. Bowie was Robin, given the Cardinals defense fits all afternoon. And the game swung on a Kobe Bryant, Tarte picked six as Seattle climbs to the top of the West. Bop bop Bowie, that was giving me trouble. Jackson Smith, the jig bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop
To the frozen tundra where Josh Nowadays everybody want to talk lately got something to say but nothing comes out when they move the lips and to put the gibberish and what the fuck is that? Like they figured out about Jay Cubs score three times and the 48 Niners proved that Mathers when your quarterback is out as Brandon Allen played the game with vomit on a sweater already and Kyle Shanahan is gonna be writing some very sad letters Trying to get Brock Purdy to notice how bad this team is without him. That is Kyle Stanahan Stanahan
Pat, this Jackson Smith, the jig babooie! The jig babooie! Packer's 38, the lighter's 10, Kyle stand ahead.
Standing on the corner, Jameless Winston, Kyahoga, Such a fine sight to see. Victory comes from the Lord while the horse prepares for a war. Snow football kicks ass on TV. Hey Jerry Judy, he did his duty.
Russell Wilson runs like something's up his booty. Cleveland wins. I forgot the score because it was Thursday night, but Jim is deserved a song. Snowball, snow football, snow football, something romantic. There's something that makes you feel good about the world when there's snow and football on TV and you watch and Turkey.

Okay week 12 in the books Crazy weekend we thought it was gonna be Sunday we were like oh man these games kind of suck a lot of big point spreads But we had chaos. That was the most chaotic witching hour of the year Yeah, well most chaotic like ten minutes. Yeah, it was it was basically that ending ten minutes of both of our games was just Made no sense So we should start with
The Cowboys 34 commanders 26. I'm glad that we're starting with this because I feel like we I got to I got to get some things off my chest and it's more productive. If I speak on them now, then I hold them in. So there's two facets of this game I want to discuss. One is the play on the field. I'll get to you in a second.
The commanders aren't a very good football team right now. The offense looks disjointed. It looks like chaos. They look nervous, panicky on offense. This might be the cliff, Kingsbury cliff.
That happens, seems to happen every season. I don't know if the first three quarters and like 90% of the fourth, the offense couldn't really do anything. Looked off schedule, a lot of drops again, six drops again today from our wide receivers. I think what's happening is we're just not a very good football team. And I said out loud, it wouldn't surprise me if we missed the playoffs. Because we're not playing, we're a 10 and a half point favorite.
during this game. Yeah, the Cowboys were dead going to skate. Cowboys had a hundred million dollars in cap space on IR going into this game.
Yeah. And then they also left some people at home. Yeah. They said, like, don't bother making this flight. Just hang out, watch on your couch. So I thought that this should be a game that we should win and win decisively. Our offense looked bad. Our defense didn't look great. We managed to make some weird shit happen in this game. Brandon Aubrey missed a couple kicks. Edwin Block blocked a punt.
And yeah, it was the Cowboys. They had a blocked field goal attempt to block punt, a missed field goal attempt and two fourth quarter kickoff returns for touchdowns. Yeah. The special teams is crazy in this game. Yeah, there's two missed extra points and it was an addition to that. It was a bad boring football game for most of the game too.
And then there was 31 points scored in the last three minutes in two seconds. Yeah. So watching the first half, I said, was like a watching a drunk man tried to build a car. And then the final five minutes was like watching that man drive that car. It was insane, insane ending to the game. The last five minutes, I felt like I was out, back in, out, back in, out again. There were kickoff returns for touch. That's credit to Turpin for hitting like the spin move from hell against
Yeah, Cavante, a turpin who like, you know, he dropped the ball and it looked like he was going to get just killed for, you know, at the 10-yard line hits one spin move and then just finds a seam and is gone. I feel like dropping kick-offs and punts is actually a good thing more often than not. Yeah. It's like every time you see a guy flub it initially, something good happens to them.
And I blame Sam Schwartzstein for reinventing the kickoff policy in the NFL. I stand with President Trump when saying that the new kickoff looks disgusting, bring back the old one, and there's nothing to do with me getting burnt by one today. But then that happened. Two. Two today, excuse me. Then Jayden Daniels hits Terry McClure for an 86-yard touchdown with 26 seconds left, or whatever it was.
And I was all the way back in. They brought me back in after watching a game that we didn't deserve to win ever. We played very, very poorly. And I was all the way back in and then Austin Seabird goes out there and pulls one left. And then I yelled at Hank.
Mm-hmm. Excuse me. I yelled at Hank the first time after a touchdown after after the turpin spin move Mm-hmm cuz I could tell no no no no no no no no no do you don't get to you don't get to reframe this? No, I mean I know I know I want to hear the facts of what I want to hear the facts I was in the room so I'll tell you if they weren't facts I
Okay, go ahead, Hank. There was no animosity. Then PFT in his state of jubilation after the touchdown. It wasn't enough for everyone to high five of them and pat him on the back, like, Oh, great. I look, I got left hanging. He turned around and go screen. Yeah. Fuck you, Hank. You're mad right now. You're mad. Again, these are out of no way. I'm not letting you reframe the way we have
the clip. I know. No, no, no, no, no, that's that happened. Yes, that happened. But this is where Hank gets you with the details and he tries to screw you all up. So he doesn't get to reframe this. I'm over here trying to take accountability. I was smiling. I'm taking accountability for my bad team's bad performance. We're not a good football team. Our roster's not that great. I was excited. We were over performing the expectations early in the season. Now I will tell you the commanders are just not a very good football team. Okay. So I want to get that out there. I'm telling you, we're not good.
Uh, fraud alert. Yes. I will accept those charges, whatever the case may be. What Hank did, I could tell throughout the fourth quarter based on Hank's reactions to things that he for some reason was rooting against the commanders. And I noted that I made notes to that. And then when Turpin had that touchdown, I could tell he was excited about that. That's why when Terry McClellan scored that touchdown,
I looked at Hank and he had an oh shit smile on his face like I have to pretend to be happy but I'm not actually happy. That's when I told Hank to politely suck my dick. I love football and I was one of the greatest football players I've ever seen. See this is a lie. This is a lie. Was it not? Which one? The kick return. Yeah, that was pretty sick. Like I reacted and I was like that was sick because it was sick. It was sick for only that reason.
It was yeah, I wasn't again. I wasn't all fucking cowboys. I was like that. I said so I made I made nor was I like I made little fuck little tiny mental notice went up I went up almost hide the game when they almost hit out There's no emotion little tiny notes in the back of my head the entire day being like, okay, Hank's rooting against me for whatever reason That's fine. He puts the you know teams that are playing against the commanders in the hungry dog all the time This that's the game is the game. That's not true
Well, it's no, I don't I don't begrudge you for that. That's fine. That's that's you know, you can I'm not gonna tell you how to do the hungry dog That's your baby. That's you've raised that baby how to do today that baby is dead. It's up on the season Decades the baby is not up on the decades up. It's up. What week is this?
Did we judge on decades here? What week is it? According to Stu Feiner. 12. 12. It's up to you. There we go. OK, so I'll never begrudge Hank for putting a team in the hungry dog. That's whatever he wants to do. Whatever. I understand. It's all good. But today, the commanders and the Cowboys, that was not part of the hungry dog. But I knew. I could tell by Hank's little reactions that he has that he was ruining against me for some reason. I couldn't quite suss it out. And then he started doing the what I can't exist. You're just attacking me for no real reason whatsoever.
And I realized I was wrong last week when I took Hank's side against Big Cat. Because this is what Hank does. This is who he is. PFT turned to me. It's like, it was like, we'll save for the show, but you were right now. I was like, I knew I was right. Deep down in this course.
because he was gaslighting me making me feel like I was crazy for reading his facial expressions and like I was reading in his stuff that wasn't happening and oh poor little hanky I'm looking as sweet little innocent face I'm coming home and I'm beating my my child and no my it's because my child little hanky
has been home all day trying to start fires while I'm gone. And then he's like, Oh, what me? And when when memes does it, when he's out there looking for clips of me being upset about bad things that happened, that's fine. That's memes. His job. He's doing a good job at his job. When Hank's a hater, he does it for the love of the game, which is
Don't stop. I can't trust a word you're saying everything. I don't know when Hank when Hank talks in this episode I would like there to be a little close capturing the community notes Yeah, just as this is a lie. Do not believe Hank do not believe his lies. So then after the game This is content. I mean we're talking content right now when Hank is being all sweet and innocent. He lets it slip I said it that he
put in a bet last week for the commanders to not make the playoffs. And like I said earlier, we might not make the playoffs. We're not that good. But you just did it out of pure hate. No, out of pure, pure hate is how is why you did it. You're you're way too emotional. You're way too emotional PFT. You're
That was strictly that was three numbers commanders are bad. I'm I'm right. That's not your you're taking it personally I'm just looking at it analytically and just looking at you on the field. They're not good. They lost a Cooper Rush kid 10 and a half point favorites They lost I mean again. We keep they beat the bears, but like in my mind that was a loss. They're not kid Can you can you at least Hank just admit this part?
From the outside looking in. There's one other element. Commanders to not make the playoffs betting. It's the most hater bet of all time. It is the most you can't get anymore. I didn't know they listed it. Yeah. You went deep into draft Kings to find that bet. Hank might have asked Jack McCarthy to get that bet up just so he could do it. You might have invented that bet. There was one other part of the bet. See, this is where I was thinking. And I, again, like you say, I'm just doing it purely for just a troll. Like I do it for the love of this podcast and the game and then what
Could the best content be and that the same time I can show you the best lips at the same time I put that then and I put in the Patriots to make the playoffs This was two weeks ago when I thought that there was a path where if the Patriots could make the playoffs and the commanders don't that would be the best content for the show obviously the Patriots aren't going to but that was No, okay, so two separate bets two separate bets, but like it's a good bet in a bad bet. Yeah
Yeah. No, I think, hey, you like Sharon Stone and Casino. I just don't understand like this is just like this is your team and your game. Like I'm completely separate. I was I was completely completely separate. I wasn't rooting for or against and then some of this would be a pretty a pretty key loss. This would be a pretty key loss for you to have in your back pocket to lose this game against Cowboys. Yeah, for sure.
So, when I was picking up on your little tiny microfacial expressions, I was 100% correct. And then you made me feel like I was insane for picking up on that. The suck my dick was unwarranted. You deserved it. No, I didn't. You didn't hide it. You didn't know it was time. That's what I'm saying. You found out a fact afterwards that justifies it, but it was not justified at the time. Because I knew there was a reason. I knew you were rooting. That's convenient for you to say and for you to have, but it's just the time it works.
Don't I word Hank says I've everyone feel vindicated because yeah PFT turned to me and was just like hey you were right about Hank and I was like you know shit I was right about Hank I've known this guy for an entire adult life. It's I've known Hank since he was 18 years old It's not that he's rooting like specifically against your team What he's rooting for is for maximum pain for everyone. That's what it is
So it's not clear about the listeners. It's not PFD. If it makes you feel better, it's not. It's not like he's personally attacking any one of us. He's personally attacking all of us at the same time. Like he wants all of us to have pain.
on air at maximum amount of time. So it's like, once you can realize it's not totally personal, he's just, he's just like the Grinch. He's the Grinch. And he just wants us to, his heart grows bigger as we get more depressed. And no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
But then he makes these sneaky little bets to personally profit off of it. And then when I pick up on his excitement towards my misery, then he tells me that I'm a liar and that I can't pick up on anything and then I find out later that yes, I was 100% right and then Hank's making me out to be the bad guy and poor little sweet innocent Hank is getting attacked by Big Cat and PFT for no reason other than existing whatsoever. Never said that.
I can't fight a battle against a liar. No, I'm not a liar, I will say. Again, part of what picketh is true. However, and if you go back to the early season, I want what I do care, ultimately, not about myself, but about this show and the listeners. Thank you, Hank. I would love it. Would truly, from the bottom of my heart, love it. If you, anyone on this team, maybe besides the Jets and maybe besides the Eagles, so pretty much everyone in this podcast,
to go into the be a legitimate contender and go on a playoff run if i thought the commanders could do that i would better not
And that's not my fault. I agree that they're not. And with that being said, now that it's like they're kind of in the playoff contention, it's like, what's the best content for the show, they're definitely not going to win the Super Bowl this year. So they might as well flame out because it would be funny to watch you crash out as you have. I sat in the studio for 20 minutes in Dead Silence. It was the most awkward 20 minutes of my life before we were start recording the show. Wait, would I be if you sat here?
Silence. I didn't want to silence anything. We've done the same thing hundreds, probably thousands of times. And there's usually some level of banter or conversations. I care about the listeners. Nothing. I care about the listeners. I want them to hear the real conversation. And because I don't know what I... Because I care so deeply and Hank, you'll agree it's important to care about the listeners. You're mad at the commanders and take you on a meet. No, no, no. That's what this is. It's so great. It is great. You're a piece of shit. Like I always knew that Kaiser Sose was with us.
And it took today for PFT to realize, like, oh shit. He literally turned to me. I was just like, yeah. He's real. Everything you said is right. But why can you say they're not going to make the playoffs, but I can't.
That's true. I get a letter point. You're allowed to say that. But you did say it. But then you made a sneaky bet and then denied. It wasn't a sneaky bet. Why did you make the bet? It's on DraftKings. You can follow all of my picks. Why did you make it? DraftKings betting group. I'm not hiding them. When did you make the bet? Two weeks ago. I'll look up the end of the day. So it was when PFT still thought they were going to make the playoffs. Which they still very much could make the playoffs. And also at the same time Hank was saying that he might put a bet on the contest. I also
I also have the commanders to win the Super Bowl. So are you? So like, what is it? That's what I bet that on November 5th. What I thought they could do it. Okay. All right. So Hank, I thought they could do it. Then I watched them almost lose to the Bears and then I realized like they're just not that good. And so on November 14th.
I bet them not to make the playoffs. Okay, so the sneaky bad I bet the Patriots to make the sneaky bad aspect doesn't come up from you making the bet it come it comes from you acting like I'm crazy and and I'm attacking you for no reason. It was for accurately understanding where your heart was in this game, but I wasn't rooting I wasn't hourly rooting for it like you were trying not to but you were I picked up on it.
I, I, we have the clips. I mean, we can review. We can do all 22. Like there was, there was, cause I really didn't care one way or the other. You weren't outwardly rooting. You, you were inwardly like mincey rooting for it. Like I was just sitting there. I was, I, it was more just like, you turn around. It's like, you're, you're mad. You're mad. I was like, what?
You were upset. I picked up on that. I was smiling. Well, see, you're the whispers and everything. So Hank, since you care deeply about the lister, I do. I also do care very deeply about the listers. And I hope that they enjoy whatever roller coaster we're on. I thought about a hater bet to contradict Hank's hater bet. But a bigger hater bet simply doesn't exist. OK. Then what Hank has done. It's impossible to say. I'd have to make my own head. Celtics don't think the playoffs would crush me. Yeah, I'm not going to do that.
But I do care about the listeners, so I decided to release the Drake May Lighthouse shirt. Now, we can't sell the shirt because it's graphic, but what I would like to do is I would like to drop the graphic for the Drake May Lighthouse shirt. And then if any listeners make their own shirts, I will choose five of them and give them $100 cash.
That sure does that sure shouldn't be released. It's not released. Oh, we can't sell it. No, I know that the graphics shouldn't be released. It's quite unsettling. It is unsettling. Yeah. I mean, you're a sick mind for making it. You're holding it in my head forever. I don't really care when you release it. It's it's an indictment on you for releasing it. So that's fine. Okay. And coming up with it. I think it was a group effort when Hank said we sleep in May. I can't remember.
Well, I had nothing to do. I'm uncomfortable with the graphic. I mean, it's like I said, you're holding it, you're holding it over my head forever. So it's like, just release it. Like, I don't know. You don't release it now. Just keep holding it over his head. Well, I lose the power. But what about the listeners? Yeah. I mean, I don't know if the, I don't know if they'll make, I mean, I guess they could make a shirt. You can make your hand getting by a lighthouse. I think it's, I think Hank might be having a drink with Drake May with the lighthouse.
What? Because it's because it's we sleep in drag maze. It's that it's fair. I thought it was a lighthouse growing up your. I think drag maze drag maze is holding the lighthouse. His is a lighthouse. Something like I don't even remember this graphic. That's convenient. Well, no, I don't I think I saw a total of one time. I wasn't the one who commissioned it.
Well, let's see it. I want to see it now. I'm looking it up. Let's see. We should just put it up on the video of the let's put it up on the on the YouTube and the rumble so people can see it if they're watching and they can use it. We're releasing the graphic. Yeah, we're releasing the graphic on the video. So if you're if you're listening right now on the podcast, go go watch it as well so you can see the graphic. Let's find the graphic. We probably can't put that on YouTube. Why? We can we can blur it.
Okay, probably blur it blur the entire thing. Yeah, we'll blur it. Yeah, we'll have to blur it a little bit. That's president pug sexual sexual cuz it's sexual. Yeah, okay. Okay, so at the end of the day, I haven't seen it forever.
I can't remember what it looks like. See, it looks like they put they made an addition to it. Okay. They that's you. No, no, they did after the Ryan Whitney polar bear fiasco. Oh, you. Oh, so it's Hank Drake may. Yeah, I think it that's it should. It should be probably is not going to love that one. Should be the lighthouse going up Hank's ass. Sorry. Yeah, you want to jeopardize my, you know, my future with my favorite QB. I'll keep that in mind.
Uh, the moral of the story is the Washington commanders are not a good football team and Hank actually might be right. He might be right to put the bed in because we're not a playoff team. The way that we're playing in the last three weeks, not a playoff team, not very good roster, not very good season and jeopardy. But if you were to tell me that we would have seven wins this season back in September, I'd be pretty happy with that.
Yeah, I mean, you can't play that game because you were seven and two. We were seven, two. Yeah. Uh, can I ask you a question? Yeah. Um, now having a rookie quarterback is a roller coaster and it's not easy. And I've gone through some very, very big downs and had a few ups. Uh, you know, Bo Nix has kind of done the same where he had some downs early. Then he's now he's looking up. He's probably should win rookie of the year. Uh, Hank, you've had some up and downs with Drake May. Jane Daniels has had to start was all ups.
It's been down. What, what do we say about that? Uh, he hasn't played great, but he has had a lot of drops and the offense as a whole has not looked good. I would put, I would put like 30 to 40% of the responsibility on Jayden Daniels. Um, it's a no concern.
No, long term, no concern. The betting market right now. I haven't checked it since these games started. I was going to say that I think as of right now, Bonix should win rookie of the year. Yeah. He's been better for a longer period of time than Jayden, even though he got off to that electric start. And he also benefited from some like a prime time performance on Monday football. And you nerfing the Pepsi award and the Pepsi award, which Bonix has dominated recently. So Pepsi award might, it might be a great indicator of who ends up winning rookie of the year. I don't think that the race is over by any means.
No, I was playing the best ball rate. He's playing the best ball right now. And Jane Daniels has not, he was on an unsustainable stretch to start. And it was as light out as you could get. And it's been not as lights out recently. Yeah, I agree. He has not played nearly as well in the second half of these 12 weeks as he did in the first half.
And so it's a little concerning, but ultimately I don't think that anything really the thing that changed with him was the injury and now he's he looks like he's healthy for the first time. He was running pretty well today. I think he had 70 yards rushing. He looked fast. He didn't have any problem with his mobility today. So that is no longer the issue, but that was a part I think of
the last like three games before today. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, because it felt like the offense didn't get going until the last three minutes. Yeah. It was like you guys were kind of stuck in mud for a long time for, and it was also not being able to run the ball. Yeah, we couldn't run the ball. Brian Robinson, it looked like his knee got exploded in the, in the first court and then he came back and obviously wasn't healthy.
But yeah, we struggled to run the football today. Offensive line had two injuries on it. It was a bad day. It was a bad day to be commanders fan against a team that I was hoping that we would be significantly better than, and we're just not. You can't say, looking at the rest of the schedule for the commanders, you can't say that we should win any of these games. We have the Titans at home. If you'd asked me last week, I'd be like, that's a win. Now, I'm not so sure that it is. We've got the Falcons at home.
I can't count on that being when we got the Cowboys week 18 That's not a win anymore obviously because we just lost them today so
Yeah, things are, things are not great. The, uh, I mean, listen, I think Jane Dales will be fine overall. It's just, this is what happens with rookie quarterbacks. And we're, I mean, we're going to talk about C.J. Stratton next, like that's what happens with young quarterbacks, ups and downs, like where it's like, it's just one week, it feels great and one week it doesn't. Uh, also shout out Cooper Rush because he did play well. He did. He was very good and he was back to like being a competent Cooper Rush backup. Uh, and the
Cowboys in general, like they were dead. They were dead men walking. The last few games have been getting killed. So this is kind of like the any given Sunday, Michael Parsons actually kind of right. As he said, he was like, I think we're better than what we were showing. And they played better today. And the defense was pressuring Jayden Daniels all day. And the Cowboys like, this is still going to be a horrendous Thanksgiving game Cowboys giants, but maybe not as much on the Cowboys part as it is on the Giants part. Also credit to Mike McCarthy.
Yeah, the team didn't quit. He was so mad that what's his name ran in that onsite kick. Yeah, that is that really was so stupid. He should have gone down at the game is over the 10 yard line. He's just gone immediately down in the games over and said we had a chance for another Hail Mary at the end. And that would have been incredible. But yeah, might be cross the coach to really good game. The guys were ready to play except what is going on with Ezekiel Elliott?
Whenever he gets the ball, I don't even think that he runs with the ball anymore. No. I think he just gets it and kind of walks forward and gets tackled and then he's like, all right. Yeah. Yeah. It's very strange watching him get curious. He's old and bad. Okay. Anything else in this game? Hank? No. Congrats to the Cowboys. Good one. Good. Good bet. No, there's a lot of games to be played.
So Hank's bet might end up being a good bet. What was the odds? It probably is a good bet. Plus 400. Oh, it probably is a good bet. It's good value. However, the sneaky aspect of the bet is where I realized that Hank's entire veneer of being right down the middle and being good guy, Hank. Bad guy. Wait, wait, wait. When did I ever say I was right down the middle? Bad guy, Hank. I've never said I'm right down the middle. Bad guy.
I mean you guys are still up right now. You're still in the playoffs if the playoffs started today. Yeah, and You I mean I think you guys I don't know it basically comes down to like if one or two of the NFC West teams can can Win games and not all of them beat up on each other. Yeah, like one or two of them run away with it also the boxer lurking there. They're definitely in it, but I
I think you guys will still make it. I also blame GZ.
Yeah. When is he at the game? I thought it was Troy. Did anyone ask him about Diddy? Will Compton. Have you seen those? Have you seen those clips? It's so funny. Like TMZ people just asking random celebrities about Diddy and just their response is always like they seen a ghost and they just like hustle into the car. I would like to know the answer to that. I just anytime you've got like Jay Z showing up out of nowhere to your game. That's a good that's a good sign that maybe your your team has been overhyped a little bit. Yeah. And Michael Rubin with him.
Okay, next game another crazy I would say upset that we didn't expect the Titans 32 the Texans 27 Titans I This was this couldn't have started more Titans ask in the fact that the Texans ran back a kick What 60 yards and then the second or third play the game the Texans scored it was seven nothing you're like up This is over like they got no chance, but we'll let us
Will Evans is fun because he throws bombs, he takes sacks, threw a pick six all over the place, but they get a win and I really walk away from this game being like, is the Texans good? I don't think, I don't know if they are. See, I don't think that they've been good all year. Yeah. Well, they've been like clunky all year. They've been clunky, but they've never been good. They've never been as good this season as they were last year.
Their offense doesn't look good. And I know that Texans fans are now openly asking for Bobby Sloak to be fired. So here's a guy that was a hot name for head coaching last year. And now they're asking for him to be fired because the offense looks so bad. Yeah, I just think that this is what they've been. Well, when they beat the bills, they started 5-1. So there was definitely a time when everyone's like, oh, they're really good. At least they were winning games. But their line camp block
They have, I feel like the most amount of unforced errors and penalties against them every single time. Even Kaimi Fairbairn missed a chip shot that would have tied the game. And then you had CJ Strive running out of the back of the end zone. I just, they're just not a very good team overall. Like they're, they're going to win the AFC South, but I don't trust them at all because you kind of are what you are. And every time I watch them, they'll have like spurts where it was like everything will click and Nico Collins will be running down the field.
and it will look great and then they'll have quarters where it's just fall start or holding and CJ Stroud throwing the ball away and like just everything looking broken. Yeah, they haven't beaten teams that they're supposed to beat by like a significant margin. I haven't been super impressed with them all season long.
I don't know what the quick answer is for him because they seem to have taken a step back from what they were last year at least. And this is what expectations will do to you because nobody expected anything from the Texans last year. They look good for most of the season. Then you build that up into year two and you think, okay, sky's the limit year two. And then now they just, you know, they're only what? What's the record now?
They're, what, six and five, I believe? Seven and five. Seven and five. Seven and five. And then there's seven and five and you're like, the sky's falling. This is bad. The good news is you get to play, I believe the Titans might be their last game of the season. Oh, they just lost them. Yeah. But again, yeah, like if you look at their schedule, they have, they've got some pretty tough game games come up. I think they have like the Ravens, the Chiefs. Yeah, they play the Chiefs Ravens. Sorry, Dolphins, Chiefs Ravens. Yeah, Dolphins, Chiefs Ravens. That's gonna be very tough. Yeah.
Blind resume for you, ready? From week three on, so if you can remember what happened in week two, and I'm just gonna keep this completely by, I'm not gonna reveal who these two guys are. 11 touchdowns, nine interceptions, and then that's QBA, and then QBB is 11 touchdowns, three interceptions.
So when we saw the what we thought was the little broing at the time. I don't know. That was that was a passing of the torch. I don't know what you're talking about. That was a blind that was this is blind of a blind resume is it could get because I'll never reveal what I'm referring to and what which two quarterbacks that might have met at midfield after Sunday football game week two. So player a little brod player B but he was really saying
11 touchdowns nine interceptions 11 touchdowns three interceptions. He said you got next. It is interesting. Listen, C.J. Stroud, I think is still going to be fine. But if you're a Texans fan, you might be like, I could have used like a couple less podcasts in the off season where remember when he did his top five quarterbacks and named himself three, maybe like
The NFL can't humble you quickly. And that was his third multi interception game. He only had one last year. I think CJ Shroud still going to be phenomenal, but running out of the end zone was not not ideal. And it feels like there's been a little bit of humble pie because we listen, we all we all part took in it where we're like, given the contract, you take CJ Shroud over anyone. Yeah, you know, we were as guilty as as CJ Shroud is, but it is
The NFL is really hard to be good year and year out. I'm not saying that Texans fans are doubting CJ Stradolong term. No, I don't think they are. You should. But what I am saying is that maybe this week, for the first time in a long time, the phrase Ohio State quarterback question mark entered your head.
But that doesn't mean that you're doubting. That's a perfectly natural reaction. It's a perfectly natural reaction. I think Nicole said it best. She's a, uh, she's a Texans fan that called into the post game show. Yeah. And she said, uh, that Kaime Fair Baron and Bobby Slowick are being bought off by the NFL cartel. Oh, to throw games. Oh, and she also believes that the cartel is after CJ Sprout too. Oh, okay. And then they cut her off because she was getting emotional.
Have you guys seen that meme of the guy who looks like CJ Stroud? Yeah. It's like a junkyard. CJ Stroud, that one's tough. Yeah. Yeah, there it is. It's right there. Year two, CJ Stroud after he spent all summer doing podcasts and defense has got tape on him. Yep. That's tough. I just think that it's funny to think that the NFL cartel wants to see Will Levis and the Tennessee Titans be successful. Yeah. And that the nation's fourth most populous city should not get any publicity. Yes.
Yes, by the way, we should talk real quick about the Titans because I this is this basically every single week I was like, I'm not giving up on the Titans. I'm not giving up on the Titans. I should have been giving up on the Titans. I bet him again this week. And finally, I feel vindicated because they have pieces of their team that are not terrible. Their special teams are terrible.
But their defense is good and will Levis is I mean he's up and down but the ups are great like they were big big chunk plays that he went for big touchdown throws and He also is the first quarterback since 1970 to have 105 plus passer rating in a three-game span in which he was sacked 20 plus times and
So he basically just gets killed and still finds a way to make passes and throw it down field. I mean, the pick six was horrendous, but everything else was good. So and and hey, remember Tony Pollard? Yeah, he's 22 yards away from having a thousand. He was awesome today.
That's pretty crazy. Tony. Yeah. Tony Pollard's been good. So the Titans deserves some credit. Like they are not going anywhere this year, but they, it feels like they have the structure for a future if they can maybe get some offensive line help in the draft. I think Brian Callahan's going to be a very good coach in this league. I, you know, Will Levis is
It's good and bad. If you can get, if you can just take away some of the bad, the good is really, really good. And this is a good moment too for Titans fans because you ultimately do want to lose as many games as possible, but you should still keep that hatred for your division rival. Yes, absolutely. Absolutely. And yeah, where are the Titans right now in tankathon? I mean, that was what their third win.
They're not a bad fool. They are a bad football team, but they're not. Like if you watch them, they basically, every game, they will start well and then they'll just fall apart and they almost fell apart today, but the Texans, like the pick six felt like it was gonna be back breaking and they just kept on fighting.
Yeah. So they deserve a lot of credit for this game. And that was a big win because I do, I am a believer in, you can't just totally lose out. You have to, you have to keep fighting and for culture going forward continuity, especially for a new coach. You're, you're wanting to win a couple of games here and there so that you can be like, Hey, remember, we were pretty close.
Yeah. Also, if you're a new coach and you're being asked to tank and you do tank, then that's the kind of coach that should be fired. Yes. I want to see a new coach be very disobedient to the front office. Correct. They tell them like, hey, foot off the gas. Correct. Correct. Okay. Also, did you know that in Texas and Houston in the press box, they have a ranch fountain?
No, that's awesome fucking ranch fountain. I would prefer blue cheese and blue cheese guy over ranch. I Know that is a spicy take for some. Yeah, the ranch. Hey, I got a question for you guys I was getting shit online this morning. That's cool. Wait, is there hot sauce too? Yeah, it's Buffalo sauce. I'm in for the Buffalo sauce ranch And I think they've got nacho cheese found to that's the fountain game is very strong use
Do you guys like cranberry sauce? Thanksgiving? I like a tiny bit to dip some of my stuffing or turkey in here. I mix it in with my stuffing. Just a little bit. I was getting shit on for it. I was like, just throw it in there. I like to do the staple. I like to do the big mashup where I just have turkey stuffing, mashed potatoes, cranberry sauce, gravy, and all is just like one food. It's a staple for a reason. I think the correct ratio is like,
20% of the size of the mashed potatoes. I go like two scoops. I go two tablespoons of cranberry sauce. Yeah, I like cranberry sauce. It adds a little sweetness to it.
Okay, next up Vikings 30 bears 27 Listen, I'm not going to be doom and gloom although That was the bears are kind of inventing new ways to lose like it's this five or whatever game losing streak we're on right now. I think it's five We've had everything a Hail Mary a couple quick games a block field goal and overtime comeback or you know come back to go to overtime and then lose again and
So they just find new ways to like reel me in and then spit me back out I Said last week and I I believe this is like as long as Caleb keeps looking good and wins and like looks better in spite of Matt Eberfluice that fucking moron I'll be happy so I'm not gonna change My goals for the season Caleb look good. This is a great day for all the like post-chain Waldron stats
Yeah. Like if you just look at before he was fired and after he was fired, this is gonna be a nice little, you're gonna have a great graphic by the end of the season that show two like separate halves of Caleb's progression offensively. It's actually, and this is gonna, people are gonna say I'm crazy, and I know, drinking the Kool-Aid, whatever.
I actually think Caleb Williams, he's my personal rookie of the year because what he was able to do with Shane Waldron as a coach is maybe the most impressive thing ever. And I mean like actually want to keep playing football, like not just quit football altogether because Thomas Brown coming in, everything looks different. The ball gets out so fast.
Guys are open. DJ Moore's being used correctly. Keenan Allen, they're targeting Cole Comette. Like, he looked good today. And I think the one thing that has kind of faded here is the Bears defense is not as good. They got torched by Jordan Addison. Torched. It was clear they were going to not let Justin Jefferson beat him. And Jordan Addison went and beat him.
Uh, but Maddie Rifflous is a doofus and he's 14 and 31, uh, as a head coach. All he does is lose one score games, which he did again. Uh, and so like whatever, just get rid of him and Caleb keep looking good. I think Thanksgiving might be a really, really bad situation because I think the lines might put up like a 50 burger on us, but I don't care. It's all about Caleb Williams. And if he can survive this season, getting a little bit better each week,
I'm gonna be just as bullish in the off-season because like how did he survive? The idiot that has met eber flus and Shane waltz So it might be a good thing to have a rookie quarterback and give them like the dumbest possible offensive coordinator for the first eight weeks Just so that it becomes so much more easy for them with a competent guy Yeah, I like that take with the eber flus this shouldn't have been a one-score game though like the end of this game was crazy He he backdored his way into a one-score
Yeah, I mean, Caleb started making some big time throws. I mean, the throw he made to DeAndre Swift down the sideline, the throw he made to DJ Moore to get into field goal range at the end of the game was an absolute laser. So far, the Vikings who have a pretty good defense, there's only been one quarterback that has 300 yards and two TDs and no turnovers and Caleb Williams. So as much as people want me to be down, he looked good. So I mean, getting another kick blocked.
was very funny. You had, you had the best loss of the weekend, sir. Yeah, I wish we hadn't been real all the way back in and the overtime did not look good because the overtime was a combo of kale getting sacked, a false star penalty. And then Matt Hebrew flus coaching scared and having everyone off the ball and Sam Donald went six for six for 90 yards. Sam Donald, by the way, played great. He, I was going into this game being like, we need
See, you know, have Sam Darnold have a couple mistakes to be in this game. He didn't make any mistakes, and he's a tough motherfucker because he got hit hard a couple times, and the Vikings are good, but I just, I can't be upset because I told my past self, as long as Caleb looks good, you can't be upset, and so I can't be upset. I have a question for a big cat. Did Matt and Amber Flus know that they could lose the game with a field goal at the end? Yeah, I think so. Okay, because the defense was like, yeah,
playing there, but maybe not against 30 yard pass. Yeah, no, it was crazy. It was really, it was insane. And yeah, he's, he's a bad, bad, bad head coach and he needs to be gone. But I'm not even like Matt Hebrew flus. You can't bother me anymore, dude. Dweber flus. He's the worst. What do you think Hank? So I was distracted by Rob Lowe. Do I have a realistic take on this game?
Yeah, you do. You've gotten past the doom of gloom, that's good and productive. We're not going to the playoffs. I mean, I would like to win a couple of these games just for Caleb's sake. That would be the next step because it does feel like I'm kind of in the same spot I was last year and the year before where it's like win a couple games so that your rookie quarterback or your young quarterback can get the confidence. That part sucks because that is Groundhog's day. But other than that, if Caleb looks good,
I nothing else can bother me. Yeah, we he's got something. He's got something. He's got something. Let it go. He's got something. I want to ask a question, but I'm going to ask a call, but it's, you know, again, like it's a it's a genuine asking. Yeah.
because you are the one that brings this thing up all the time, is the reverse record. And if you guys win a couple more games like that, your reverse record of one score games might come back to be painful. Because there's three off the top of my head. I don't know if there's any goals. Yes, it would be painful. Especially with two division games. Yeah, it would be painful if it weren't for the Cardinals in the Patriots game. Those quick games sandwiched in.
But if you win up, if you, if you, you know, go in and run at the end of the hail, Mary doesn't happen in a block field goal doesn't happen. Then we, I mean, this game, we shouldn't have like won true. Yeah. And the onside kick was good. Yeah. The outside kick. That was actually my biggest gripe with this game is I feel like we wasted it on side kick. Yeah. Cause we probably were never going to win this game. I think if you get, if you take it to overtime, not a wasted on sides kick.
You know what I'm saying? Like we need that onside kick in a season when we're actually trying to go to the playoffs. I mean like macro zoom out. Yeah. Yeah. Like yes. In your life, you only have so many successful onside kicks that you will watch your teams do. Today was a waste of
That feel right? Yeah. Like you just know it deep down. You're like, you can't, it's like the whole, whenever you have like a big moment, you're like one time for me. You can't say one time every single time. You know that that's not gonna happen. But this was the one time it happened and I feel like it might be wasted. It's like if you get hot at a shoot around, you're just shooting the basket by yourself. Yeah. And you hit like 10 in a row from three and then you go, you play a pickup game next week and you can't make a bucket. Yeah.
My only other note, hater note, I guess. I wouldn't say that it is, but the sack he took an overtime, you can't. Yeah, it's a bad. No, it's bad. You gotta just throw the ball away. It was bad. That was a bad sack, and it's still not perfect. I'm not saying the kill was like a finished product, but it looked so bad for the last three games of Shane Waldron.
So to have the last two games look good again, gives me new life in me. And like he, he's, he's playing free again. He's not, he's not mentally locked up. He's throwing the ball. He's seeing it, throwing it. He's running it hard. Yeah. So it's winning divisional games with a rookie quarterback is very hard. Very hard. It's very hard to fight. It's weird you would say that. No, it's like, if you keep him within one score, that's
That's great. Yeah, quarterback for sure. Yeah, I mean like losses are losses whether they're one point two points whether you know You could have won with the two point conversion and chose to kick a field goal and then miss the extra point Or if you you know lose by 20, it doesn't matter loss of loss loss loss loss
Uh, and yeah, the Vikings, I Sam Darnell, I expected Sam Darnell to start to melt, but he was fine. He was done right now. It's good thing that we're in Chicago. Uh, yeah, no guns here. Uh, by the way, did you guys see one of the weirdest quirks in this game when Jordan Addison had that big catch and run down the sideline? They had Maddie before was challenged. It didn't win the challenge. He's, I think he's over for lifetime and challenges.
They had a view that they that showed that Jordan Addison might have stepped out of bounds, but they couldn't use it because it was the boundary cam. Yeah. And not every stadium has the boundary cam. So for equity of the game, you're not. So they had the view, but the rest were not allowed to use it. So apparently you can use them for expedited reviews. If it's a scoring play, the league can call it in if it's a scoring play and they know the information. But if it's a challenge, you can't.
So how stupid is that? Do we have access to these boundary cams? I don't know. I just saw it. My prayer was on. He was like, yeah, this is the boundary cam. You can't use the boundary. They're you might have stayed in bounds too. So it doesn't really. This is why we need the push. We need the super challenge. Yeah. The super challenge should include the boundary cams as well. Yes. Absolutely. Absolutely should include it.
Um, credit to the Vikings though, they're going to the playoffs and they're, they're a good team. Sam Dora looked very good. Yeah. He's, his mobility has gotten so much better in the last couple of years. One, it's like moving around the pocket. And the big thing is if Jordan Addison is going to be like that, the, because it really was the bears like we're not going to let Justin Jefferson beat us. I think he had seven yards before overtime. He had a big catch in overtime. Uh, but if Jordan Addison is going to be that good, the Vikings are a very big problem. Memes. How do you feel about potentially bringing Sam home this week?
This week? No, I mean, like last week you were out on it the week before you were maybe in on it. Now, Sam Darnold, the quarterback for the New York Jets 2025 were your thoughts. I'm at fucking mode too. Yeah, just bring them in. Hey, memes, did you see the latest Jets thing? Yeah, yeah, I saw it. Well, actually, I think there's a source offering. I think there's multiple things. I don't know if I saw a big cat. What was it? Well, there's multiple things.
Let's save the Roger stuff for maybe who's back. I was talking about the anecdote that Woody Johnson landed his helicopter in practice. And Joe Douglas turned to Jeff Ulberg and was like, if he's coming to fire me, it's been an honor serving with you. And then he literally was coming to fire him. Yeah. The new Jets are the TV show succession.
I just love that was that's insane to like there's like the person who was sourcing it was like, yeah, they had a good chuckle about it. And then minutes later, Woody Johnson pulled Joe Douglas off the field and fired him. Has anything good ever happened after a billionaire stepped off the helicopter? No, I can't think of anything. No, that's that. Yeah, that's not that feels bad. Uh, okay. Chiefs 30 Panthers 27, uh, Bryce Young. Is he back?
Dude, price shown. I think he might be back. He was awesome today. And I know awesome is relative. Like you're not gonna look at his numbers and be like, holy shit, he was so good. He was awesome in the fact that the chiefs were blitzing him nonstop and he looked composed, didn't make any big mistakes. There was one where they brought the house and he just stood in there, hit his guy,
Like kept on going at two fourth quarter drives for Touchdown. This was or sorry, scoring drives. This was only the third time in the Andy Reed Chiefs era where a team scored on 75% of their drives against them. That's pretty crazy. That was Bryce Young today. Yeah. So I'm happy for Panthers fans because it's been a tough couple of years. And I don't know. I mean, Bryce Young looked like he was 11 for 13, 135 yards in a TD versus the blitz today.
Yeah, and that's good. And they were down 11 points in the fourth quarter. And Bryce Young, he brought them back on those drives. And they might have taken this over time. And Patrick Mahomes did the thing that Patrick Mahomes does when he runs with the football. And then defenses assume that he's going to slide. Yep. Or he's going to go out of bounds. So they let up because they know if you hit Patrick Mahomes even like a quarter of a second late, you're going to get flagged for it every single time. Yep.
And then he does a thing where he just keeps on going. Yeah. He's like, oh, yeah, I'm not going to stop. And then peeled off another like 15, 20 yards. He ate a 33 yard run down the sideline that was just vintage Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs just keep. I mean, it's crazy. The Panthers are in this game because I think if you have to look at anything, you kind of know what the Chiefs offense is. Maybe they'll get a little bit better when Hollywood Brown comes back and maybe her she rice. I don't know.
Uh, the Chiefs defense has not looked as good as it did to start the season. I think spags will probably get it figured out, but Bryce Young, I mean, he had a nice day against them. So went up and down the field against. Do you think, do you think Panthers fans are like, maybe, maybe just Bryce Young next season too?
Yeah, I think he's played well enough recently where you might be happy with him now. Listen, it's not the craziest thing. He's looked better and you already have him under contract.
I don't know, you don't wanna, why not? Why not? Cause here's the thing, right now you might be finding yourself in a New York giant situation where if Bryce goes to another team and he plays really well, you can't live with that. You can't live with yourself. That's true. If Bryce Young even has like a moderately successful career for somebody else. That's true. You can't do that. You just have to just kind of keep him around. Yeah. And hope that this trend keeps to progress. And if it doesn't, you can bench him again, maybe he'll get even better after you bench him a second time.
You want a blind resume? Yeah. Quarterback A, last two games, two touchdowns, three interceptions, quarterback B, last two games, two touchdowns, zero interceptions. Oh, I think quarterback A might be the same quarterback from the earlier blind resume. Yeah, we've kept quarterback A consistent. Yeah, consistent. And then quarterback B is probably Bryce Young. Yes. So B is Bryce Young. Hey, listen, Big Cat, Ohio State University quarterbacks. Yes.
Can't make it in the NFL. I do think though that Patrick Holmes might be the fastest slow guy on the planet. Well, his speed is deceiving in that he's slower than he looks. Yeah. So he like gets you kind of he gets guys coming fast that he kind of gives a hezy. It's yeah, he's incredible running the ball and you know,
This was a game that it felt like the Chiefs are just gonna play in this game every week I guess no matter who the competition is and then they're gonna win the majority of them. I think we should make a ruling though on Chiefs fans whether or not they're allowed to post the graphic that is uh can't wait to watch the Chiefs play football for the first part of it and then along I'm going to kill myself. Wait and then at the end
Nice. We won. No, I don't think they should be. That's not allowed. I've seen it. You won? No. Yes, I've seen it. You won three Super Bowls. You can't use that. I think we should make a public statement about it. National Sports Podcast. If there's any Chiefs fans complaining about being 10 in one and going for a... Well, the meme is just that the roller coaster game. But it doesn't matter. They always win. Yeah, they always win.
It's true. The meme suggests we have Patrick Mahomes, this kicks ass. Yeah. The biggest complaint that chief fans have right now is our tight end is too famous. Yeah, the meme should be, can't wait to watch chief's football. Oh shit, we don't look that good, but we have Patrick Mahomes, so we'll probably win. Yeah, nice. I was right. Sick.
That's crazy. It is crazy, isn't it? That's a crazy thing to do. There are certain memes that should be held exclusively for loser franchises. Yes. And as card-carrying members of loser franchises, this is where we need to step up and say, my culture is not your costume. No. Nope. You can't, if you're a cheat state, you can't. And even if you lost this game today, who the fuck care? Hank, you don't get to claim loser franchise.
Author current. Not bad. Yeah, um Is no great tight end one he might be if you look at the stats between him and Kelsey. Yes Interesting. What's that memes? He's got three touchdowns in the last two games Yeah, no grace got three touchdowns in the last two games. He might be tied in one Do you think there's? Do you think there's any?
No, I'm not going to do it. What? No, I was going to talk about Noah Gray and maybe his prospects. Yeah. No, I was going to say I'm not going to say anything. I'll just ask the question. Is he married? Does he have a podcast? Let's see. Noah Gray wife. Oh, yeah. She looks nice. Okay. Great. So good for Noah Gray.
scored three touchdowns the last two weeks. That's fucking sick. Two touchdowns today. And you're married to a beautiful lady. Yeah. You basically have it all. You have it all. And your Patrick Holmes favorite target. Yeah. Yeah. Like this is sick for you. Okay. Anything else from this game?
It was good. This was another one where I was like, because I will get to the Lions cults. I had these ugly, it was my week where I was like, I'm just going to bet all the ugly teams. So I bet the Titans, I bet the Panthers, I bet the cults. It was good that the cults hurt, but these two teams showing up and the Panthers almost winning this game.
felt good if uh, if the chiefs didn't lose last week, I think they lose this game. They might have. Yeah. They would have been the mean would have been correct. The prophecy would have been accurate. Yeah. Yeah. Uh, okay. Let's uh, take a break for a couple of ads and then we will talk
about your teammate. Wait, is this that true that the Chiefs have now won 10 games for 10 years in a row? You don't get to use the thing. That's crazy. You don't get to use the because we're nice. We won thing because guess what? I was going to say this for the Lions thing, but the Lions have won 10 games for consecutive seasons for the first time in their 95 year history. Yeah, they've won 10. I guess that makes sense because of Alex Smith, right? Like they would rip off wins.
They weren't throwing, they weren't throwing touchdowns to wide receivers for like two seasons. And they were still winning 10 games a year? No, okay, it's not. Oh yeah, it is. 2014. 2014 was the last time they won less than 10 games. That's insane. That's very impressive. You cannot use that meme. No, you can't report that meme. Anyone who sees that meme tag us will report it. That person is, that's bullshit. That actually makes me mad.
Uh, okay, let's take a break. And when we come back, we'll talk a little Patriots dolphins. Yes.

Okay, Dolphin's 34, Patriots 15. Now Hank, you told us that you bet the Patriots make the playoffs. They got absolutely smoked today.
Yeah. I know the last two weeks, uh, they've gotten exposed on defense pretty bad and their offensive line has been even worse. Yeah. I can't stop. I listen.
I'm not a football guy. I'm a football guy's guy guy. Wait, I thought you were a huge football fan. You just root for the game. You said that at the beginning of the show, you said you just love football. I'm talking X's nose. I'm being honest. I don't know the game. I never played the game. Like when I hear coach Gruden talk about the X's nose, like that shit goes right over my head when I look at it. But I enjoy watching it. Enjoy your life.
Even I know. Quick question. You enjoy the game of football? Yeah. You enjoy like pit, pit football and a set pit Saturday or heat. And Sundays. It's just only on Sundays. My teams, I enjoy watching my teams play football. Okay. I think it's pretty common. Washington. Yeah, even Washington. Not the commanders. No, he enjoyed it today. That's true.
The Patriots can't stop a slant. Like that, like it's the most obvious thing in the world. Like it's the last two games. They just fucking run diagonally, but the Rams did it too. They did it all game. They just run diagonally in the middle of the field is wide open. And again, like I don't know much, but I know that that should not be as easy as it has been the last two weeks. And today it was unstoppable. I think they went three and out in the first drive and then just didn't stop getting first downs for the rest of the game.
you guys also struggle to cover tight ends felt like john is everything is just always open everything in the middle of the field wide open yeah jail in wattle made his comeback today big time he was all over the place uh yeah to it was awesome i mean i think the dolphins might be back we'll find out because the the best part about the dolphins right now they they were
Okay, then to a gets hurt and obviously the bottom fell out and now that he's back They've looked really good in the last three weeks obviously they lost the the bills with the last two weeks they won And I think there was a that was there's that weird Cardinals lost to mixed in there, but they're five and six They're in the race for the AFC playoffs
And now they have to go to Lambo on Thursday night and we get to decide whether the dolphins are still the dolphins or this team could maybe make the playoffs because cold weather dolphins will tell us everything and they have three cold weather games remaining on their schedule because they finish with at the Browns and at the Jets. So they asked too about the cold weather coming up. Okay. And his response was, I'm excited to kill narratives. Let's go. Bring it on. Because it's inherently a destroyer of narratives. I think
These dolphins are different from last year's dolphins. Oh. I think that maybe getting shamed into the whole fraud discussion last year, I think that might have made them more prepared for this year, where nobody thinks they're a fraud, where they had their use to adversity at this point. Yeah. Getting shit on for the last eight months.
I mean to it looks great he's a five five games in a row 70% passing completion or better he had four touchdowns today they did whatever they wanted like even the score 34 15 isn't really like it was it was 24 and nothing and half
Yeah. And I feel like the dolphins could have just kept scoring if they wanted to. Yeah. The dolphins and chopped Robinson looks good. Yeah. Shout out chopped all time football and name. He looks great. Yeah. Jalen Waddle has been rediscovered down in Florida.
Also, how about the fact that John and Smith's good? Yeah, John and Smith, like the offense runs through John and Smith. They couldn't guard him today. He was always open. I think it's a touch on every single game in the last three weeks. My only problem with jail and waddles that he said that the Penguin dance is off limits now. Oh no. He's done doing it. Because of the Penguin show, he's not doing the waddle anymore because he said that people asking him in public to do it got to be a little bit much. You can't take that away. You got to give people what they want. If you're scoring touchdowns, you got to do the waddle.
I don't think Mike McDaniel after the game brought his baby daughter in. Yeah. And he just openly said it. You know, some coaches out there, not to name any names, some coaches will bring their children with them to the press conferences afterwards and use them as human shields. Correct. But Mike McDaniel was like, yeah, I just wanted you guys to ask me easy questions. That's why I brought my infant daughter in here. Yeah. And the first question was, why are you such a great dad? That's great. It works. That's great. Yeah. Smart by him. So Hank, are you worried at all about Gerard Mayo?
Definitely. Yeah. That quote he had. He said, uh, talking about the errors. Yeah. He said once, once those guys cross the sideline, there's nothing I can do for them. There's nothing any coach can do for them once they cross the sideline. It's my job to continue to prepare them.
But they're crossing the sideline and doing terrible, which means you're not doing good preparing. You got to prepare them. And then, because I also feel like there is something, you know, you can't say that. It's kind of like the mutiny thing where it's like, there's things you, he's not, he's not very well media trained and.
Once they're across the sideline, you still are getting calls into the offense and defense. Yeah, like, hey, defense, and he's a defensive coach. That's really where it's, yeah, I lose it a little bit where it's like, he's a defensive coach and our defense looks so bad. Yeah. So because I thought you guys were in that frisky category was like, and he even said it. I think he's like, we want to be the team that no one wants to play at the end. You need a good defense for that. Yeah.
It turns out it was just the bears quitting and like being lifeless and Shane Waldron that made that thought percolate. Yeah, in theory, it should be you have a defensive coach, the defense is standing up and then you know your rookie QB, there might be some good, there might be some bad, but you can turn together some wins. The rookie QB is playing above average, but everything else is just really bad. Yeah. Is Jared Mayo the guy? Probably not. Probably not. How quickly do you move on?
Uh, I wouldn't hate again like my my personal thing. I don't think draw Jared mails bad guys, right? You're up Jared drawd drawd drawd
The defense is bad. He's defensive coach. Why not get an offensive coach to work with our phenom quarterback? It would seem smart. I deal with the same thing. Phenom. Phenom. Phenom. We're putting Drake Mane in the phenom category now. Yeah. Have you seen these graphs? Phenom. I don't think I've seen the same graphs you have. He's been looking at graphs. He's a playmaker. That's what I've learned and I was wrong in my analysis with him pre-draft. Maybe the ball looks a little heavy, but he is so good on his feet, scrambling, running out of the pocket and making plays happen.
I think it's phenome. Phenome. So maybe does that today, but it's like also it'd be nice if he had more than one second in the pocket where he didn't have to scramble and run for his life every single play. Do you think that Robert Kraft is the guy?
Yes. Absolutely. Okay. I'm saying the whole thing. Yeah. What do you think about Mr. Kraft not making the whole thing? I clearly Roger Goodell has proven time and time and time again to have a bias against the Patriots against Mr. Kraft against everything that the Patriots stand for. Roger Goodell does the voting for the whole thing.
I don't think he does either. You don't think he has an influence. I think it's sports writers. No, those are journalists. I mean, did you see? Did you see Ian Rapport almost cry about an old story? Did you guys see us? So fucking funny. Mike Malarkey, the story goes that Mike Malarkey knew he was about to get fired by the Titans. And he told Ian Rapport that he was actually about to get an extension. And I guess Ian Rapport, this was five years ago. And I guess he found out about it like this week. And he got very upset.
Yeah, that's not funny. The guy's name is literally malarkey. Yeah, also it's funny Sorry, it's funny. You should use a second source
Also, it's like you assume he was drunk. It's a very funny drunk. Like should I text? Yeah, right? Tell him I'm fucking like the guys want to get fired He's like fucking I'm gonna just see if someone will report that I got a contract extension That's funny, but if the guy tells you that and then you report it and he gets fired You should by all means be like hey just as a heads up my source on this was my yeah, my car Yeah, so the new time of your sources. Well, that's funny. You should have done it right away. Yeah. Yeah, it's a fun. I laughed I
I laughed and then when I watched rap ports, reaction, I laughed even harder. Yeah. But Hank, you don't think that Robert Kraft is his, uh, his non hall of fame vote is getting to him a little bit? Because he spent the last three years just trying to get to the hall of fame. Yeah. He did the, uh, the it with the stop hate, the timeout to hate. They're also in the, in the report about him not making it. I guess. I think that was to stop hate, but sure. Yeah. Well, he just wanted, he just woke up and was like, I'm going to stop hate today.
Yeah, I mean, that's that's that's very I would never wake up and think you're going to stop hate. I would say no, but I would not like I would not like one on this podcast is a negative thing that cares my Hall of Fame resume. I agree with that. But stopping hate is a very hard thing to do. He's I know. So he should be applauded for trying to stop. He's own one against hate.
If anything he's only impolence kick his ass. Yeah, cuz they hate the NFL all the voters. Yeah, they voted in a guy who who owned a team for four years. Yeah, and he didn't want to pay the players. Yep, uh
Yeah, they're apparently they've been sending like every year they send Robert Kraft's book to all of the voters. And then the article I read one voter was like, yeah, I've gotten it like two years in a row. The book still haven't read it. Still haven't read it. So I think you should get in. I think that when Hank stops hating, that will be the biggest test of Robert Kraft's success. He should get in because I mean, he owners in the last 20 years, 30 years,
He's had a pretty big impact on the game of football. I would say so, but it also is very funny that he's keeps getting denied. I do think it's a, it's a, it's a funny story. It's kind of like Mike malarkey story. I do think that Roger Goodell looks at this podcast and he's like the number one Patriots fan is still the world's biggest hater. He has Robert Kraft on. That's a good point. PFT. I didn't even think about that. You can get him in Hank. You have that power. I'm not a hater. So yeah, see? Yeah. Okay. Gun to your head. Do the dolphins find a way to make the playoffs?
Yes. Uh, yeah. I say no. I want them to cause I think two is fun and like it sucks that they had the injury, but their Broncos are currently in the seven seat at seven and five and they dolphins have five and sixty. We think the Broncos are going to drop a couple more.
The Dolphins also have not the easiest schedule. They play at the Packers. Tough to win division games with the rookie. Actually, they might have an easy schedule given the state of some of these teams at the Packers who are good. Jets, Texans, Niners, Browns, Jets.
They probably have to win. They probably have to get to 10 wins. So they can lose one more game. I think I got to go five and one in the last six. And the Broncos would have to go two and they only have five left. Two and three. Would that get him in? Who has a tiebreaker? I don't know who has a tiebreaker. But yeah, it feels like I don't know. I don't think the Broncos are going to go two and three. I think the Broncos might go two and three. Really? Yeah. I'm a believer.
I'm not going to give the Broncos two and three just yet. Who has it? Because head-head isn't a part of the second type of your conference, or minus four and four in the conference, then versus three and four. The team's finished with the same conference record, then the record against common opponents would break the tie. That's too complicated. It's very complicated.
Uh, the chiefs aren't going to be playing anyone in week 18, maybe it's possibility. Yeah, or they might be, they might be playing for a better seed. Yeah, that's true. Either way, I'm happy the dolphins, the dolphins, credit to the dolphins winning this game saved Thanksgiving football.
Because if the Dolphins had lost this game and they were sitting there at four and seven, we would have had just, I mean, the Bears Lions game, the Bears are playing for the Bears are getting embarrassed. The Giants Cowboys game is putrid and then we would have had a four and seven Dolphins game team going to Lambo. They saved Thanksgiving. Thank you. Thank you to the Dolphins. You saved Thanksgiving.
Uh, okay. Speak it off. Uh, Lions, 24, cold six. I said it earlier, but I'll say it again. The Detroit Lions have won 10 games in consecutive seasons for the first time in their 95 year history. Uh, and they did it with their defense today because we all talk about Ben Johnson. Aaron Glenn is also going to be a head coach. The Detroit Lions have not given up a touchdown in the last 10 quarters of play. So that's half time of the Houston Texans game.
They just like, swallowed up the Colts. And the Colts, I mean, they gave up a couple, you know, there's some big chunk plays here and there. But when it got to red zone and a lean McNeil is just unblockable, just an absolute force on that defensive line. Aaron Glenn deserves a lot of credit. And the the Lions showed that even like they weren't clicking at the highest level of Lions offensive football today and they still want.
Yeah, I was going to talk about the not allowing touchdowns in over two games now because that's that's very, very impressive for this. Yes. And winning games on the road as well. So there's six and all on the road right now. They beat the Colts, the Texans, the Packers on the road, the Vikings on the road, the Cowboys on the road when they weren't dog shit and the Cardinals on the road. They're a really, really fucking good football team.
Yeah, very, very good. That's why they're my until further notice team. Yeah, until they until I have a stinker again, I'm just going to blindly believe that the Detroit lines are going to steamroll everyone. Yeah. And this wasn't even a steamrolling like it was. I mean, they steamrolled defensively. Yeah, defensively, they steamrolled them because the Colts were
The Colts are maddening to watch because they just had so many penalties, self-inflicted wounds, Anthony Richardson, kind of the same thing that we've talked about a million times. Sometimes it looks great, sometimes it doesn't. Also, Ogletree dropped a touchdown for him, that sucked. But yeah, the Colts just beat themselves. And when you're playing Alliance team that you have to play pretty much perfect football, it was pretty much over at halftime. Even though it was 14-6, it's like you can't kick two field goals against the line.
They're gonna beat you if you kick two field. They've only really had one game where they've looked bad offensively. It was the box. Yeah, it was their one loss where they scored I think 16 points. Yeah, it's actually the Rams game week one was not like perfect like it was basically September. Yeah, since September they have just been dominating. Yeah, and this is this is a crazy stat. So the Lions have finished their 4-0 against the AFC South.
In fairness, I'll do a quick insult stat. The NFC North played the AFC South this year. The NFC North was 14 and two against AFC South. The Bears obviously were the two losses. They went two and two. Every other team went four and O. The Detroit Lions against AFC South this year. Tell me what you think the scores were in the second halves of those games. 17 nothing.
No, no, total. Four games. Four games against AFC South. Four games. I'm going to say that they had a point differential of 63, 17. Just the second half. Just the second half. Four games against the AFC South. I think they had a point differential of plus 70. Yes, that's exactly right. You saw the same stats. 70. I did not see it. I heard Hank say 60 and I was like 70 to nothing. That's wild. Nothing. Zero.
70 to zero in the second half against the AFC South. I have a question. 70 to zero. That's insane. That's two full games of football over four games, eight quarters, 70 to zero. Go ahead. Would you rather be 10 and one with a bunch of clunky wins, close games or 10 and one with a bunch of blowouts and never endowders?
Blowout lines. Yeah. Yeah, and also they've not had all blowouts and never-indaughters They had a really tight game against the Vikings. They had a really tight game against Texans. I mean that was a That was the Texans game was like to prove it like Jared through what five picks. Yeah Well, what do you mean like by would you rather be like would you rather like moving forward and confidence in your team?
Yeah. With the hypothetical team that has a lot of clunky games, have Patrick Mahomes as a quarterback, then I would rather be that team. Yeah, probably. But the Lions right now, I think it's safe to say they are the best team in football. Yeah. And they have, they've been tested a few times, but they just kill teams that are not, I mean, the Lions deserve a ton of credit because when they play inferior opponents, they kill and you should get credit for that. Like they just smash them.
Also, the Montgomery Gibbs, Sonic and Knuckles, this is the 11th time they both scored in a game. It's mostly NFL history for tandem in the backfield. Yeah, so they can obviously beat you if they throw the ball all over the place, but they can also just run the ball down your throat, which is what they did today. Yeah, the lines are really fucking good in the Colts. I don't really know. They're not going to make the playoffs. It feels like, well, actually, they could win the AFC South. Who knows?
That is not five and seven right now. That's not totally the I would actually say if you said like can the Colts win? Can the Colts make the playoffs? I would say not as a wild card, but maybe winning the AFC South. I think it's probably over for the Colts, but it's not it's not over over yet.
They could. Yeah, no, it's probably over. But it's probably over. But they could. It's most likely over them. But wouldn't you say that their path to the playoffs would probably be the Texans just falling on their face? They do not control their own destiny. They do not control their own destiny. Although we all do kind of.
Yes. How are positive? They can decide how they want to play. Yeah. Okay. Last game of the early slate, Buck's 30 giant seven. This was an absolute shit kicking. Baker is the best. He's the best. He is so much fun to watch. He did the Tommy DeVito Italian
He did. He was blocking like 40 yards downfield for Bucky Irving, the fumble recovery. He just looks like he has so much fun playing football and I have fun watching someone like that play football. He goes 100 miles an hour downfield looking for work. Yeah, on a handoff. Yeah, like no quarterbacks do that. That was awesome to see. Yeah, the Bucks, they've been waiting to play a team like the Giants for a long time.
They had a tough schedule. They had a very tough schedule and they were competing against every team and now finally they get to play a team that they should beat and they should kill and they went out there and they did it. The Giants are, they've got to be just like the most miserable fan base right now. They've got to be so frustrated with how the season's gone. That's true, the entire city of New York right now is down fast. I'd say the Jets. The Giants, I didn't know this until earlier today. They only have one interception this season.
which is crazy in week 12. I think that they started DeVito just to get Italians to buy tickets. Yeah. I think they were like, we need to give people a reason to come out to the games. I know we'll get the Italian guy out there. He didn't look great, but I mean, he also got his ass kicked today.
Yeah, they were hitting him and hit him hard. No, and he, I mean, he had five completions for 31 yards in the first half. Malik neighbors basically summed up the entire Giants locker room. He had a couple quotes after he said, I started getting the ball when it was 30 to nothing, asked, asked Abel about it. And then he also said team has been soft as fuck.
Yeah. Yeah. I think Dexter Lawrence also said that they played soft. Yeah. So it's bad. And then we had the Daniel Jones. We recorded on Thursday. He got caught on Friday. I will say the scout team safety thing that you see. I think Ben DiNucci said something about it where he was like every team I played on is the third string quarterback. I was scout team. That might just be because Ben DiNucci is an elite athlete. Yeah. So they're like, you remind me of a Troy Palomale and get back there.
But Daniel Jones is going to go to a, he said he wants to go to a contender. Yeah, like the Ravens and the Vikings are interested. Those are the two teams. He feels like he would be a good Vikings backup, doesn't he? Yeah. Yeah. Like you do worse than Daniel Jones as a backup. Yeah, I'd agree. Yeah. No, Daniel Jones, I mean, if Daniel Jones has to come in for a series, no, you'd probably be pretty nervous. I mean, I think it'd be, it'd be very funny if he ended up going to the Eagles.
Yeah. And then I want him to go to the, the Cowboys for Thanksgiving, save Thanksgiving. If Jerry Jones signed Daniel Jones and started him against the Giants on Thanksgiving, that is the way to save Thanksgiving football. Jerry Jones, please do it. I agree. But if he goes to, if he goes to email, yeah, I don't know. No, no, no, he got cut. If they wanted to claim him off waivers, yeah, they would have to pay him. But if he passed waivers,
And he's free to sign anywhere. You have to pay him, but you're going to pay him like minimum. Cowboys currently have Daniel Jones listed on their website. Is that real? As what? Wait, hit the website. This will be so awesome. That was my initial thought was like, just sign Daniel Jones and let us, let us watch him play against the giants. The ultimate revenge game. Oh, he's not there. There's a troll.
But imagine this, imagine he gets signed by the Eagles. They are a contender, signed to the Eagles, and then last game of the season, Sequin Barkley rushes for an all-time record for him for rushing yards, potentially breaks 2,000 rushing yards, and Daniel Jones has started quarterback and beats the Giants as the Eagles quarterback.
But Jalen Hertz is your guy. That's what I'm saying. Like the Cowboys thing makes sense because the Cowboys don't have a starting quarterback. Oh, no, obviously that would have been great for for things. Yeah, I'm saying like as a backup. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. For Pete chaos and misery. That is probably a twist tonight. Yeah. Yes. Stop it. Would you say he's maybe a being a hater? Big time. Yeah. Stop Pete.
Stop it. The Bucks had 11 receivers catch a pass. I think the Bucks set it two weeks ago. I think they're going to find a way to get it into this playoff. I don't know. I mean, it might be your expense, PFT, but it also could be they win the NFC South.
They've, they've been playing good football. They've just been really banged up and been playing really hard teams. And now they have a little bit of a reprieve in terms of their schedule where I think they have, they need to pick up, I think one game on the Falcons, right? Well, the Falcons have the 2-0 head to head. Yes, that's an issue. So the, that, that is a, I think they could. I think that they right now, they're one of the best teams in the NFC. They only, the only team they play that is above 500 left on their schedule is the Chargers. So they go Panthers, Raiders, Chargers, Cowboys, Panthers, Saints.
Yeah, they very easily could make the playoffs. I kind of want it. I want them to just because of Baker and Baker so much fun to watch. Baker has the right mentality after the game. He said, we feel like we control our own destiny. Yes, which is exactly the way that you want to feel. Did you also see the reporter? I love this. It felt like they were they had Baker on trial. They asked Baker if he's Italian because of the hand signals and wondering if like this was a hate crime or not. And he said he hasn't done a 23 in me. So he doesn't know.
So he might be. He could be. But it was just very funny for a reporter to ask it because it was kind of a serious tone where they're like, you're not allowed out in New Jersey if we can put this charge on you. By the way, I think that he should do it 23 and me because they tell everybody that they're a little bit Italian. Yeah. I'm 1% Sicilian according to that. They'll probably find the same thing for him. Yeah. And then you'll be like, yeah, see, I was allowed to do it. I was allowed to do it. Yeah, the Giants were really sad. This is going to be a sad Thanksgiving game.
Put in Drew Locke. Yeah. He got warmed up today. Did he get in? He, I think he got in for, I mean, they were killing Tommy DeVito. Killing him. Drew Locke is the ultimate spark quarterback. Also, Vita Bay being the fullback was sick. Yeah. Because he is an absolute monster of a man. Yeah. And that's exactly who you should have as your fullback.
Tristan Worfst didn't play today, right? I think he was out. Yeah, so if you can get but they had some they had I think Zion McComb played they had some guys back on defense like they're starting to get healthier. So this is big This is big. Yeah, let's see Tristan worse Yeah, I think he was I think he was there with a big brace on Steven Shay was there so I'm sure he
He's got every, he's got all the intel. Happy for, no, I'm not happy for, I'm not happy for Stephen Jay. No, and was this? Yeah, Tristan Worf's in play. Was this the same week as we saw Antonio Brown quit at halftime? I don't know if it was the same week. I know it was the same. It was the first time the Bucks went back to MetLife. Yeah, the first time was against the Jets, this time against the Giants. I think it might have been the same. Who knows? I don't think, I think it was, I think people were just playing that video because they were like, this is the first time they're back at MetLife since then. That was an all time moment.

Okay, afternoon games. We've got a problem, by the way, in the NFL, our afternoon games have sucked ass. Actually, we had chief spills last week, but I feel like this just anecdotally, we've been having these crazy witching hours to start. And then it's like three games and two of them are blowouts.
They should start being allowed to flex games out of like good games out of Sunday night football back to the Afternoons in case of emergence or just give us the four and five Yeah, it was four and five that we can we know that you know if all hell breaks loose We will have a backup plan if you have more than three gives you a much higher probability And honestly the card will see Hawks could have been good, but it was just ugly
It was just boring. Yeah. So, uh, the ugliest of all of them was the Packers 38 49ers 10. This was an absolute shit kicking by the Packers and, uh, Josh Jacobs was incredible and he is, uh, I was wrong. I thought, I mean, I was, it was the hater in me, uh, being like Josh Jacobs, like pay him all that money of running back. He is a difference maker and he was incredible. Just absolutely shoved it down the 49ers face.
Yeah. So when I found out that that Purdy was going to be on, I think they released that news on Friday. Friday, yeah. And Bosa. Yeah. Purdy and Bosa. I thought that Purdy had looked hurt the last game that he played because he wasn't throwing the ball down field at all. I didn't think that it was like keep him out of the next game. Yeah. Type of an injury. But we knew that this had to potentially be an ugly game. But then by the time kickoff happened,
because I had talked myself into the 49ers. I was very wrong about that. I went back and I looked at the box score from was the NFC Championship game in 2020 where they had Jimmy Garoppolo complete six passes, I believe, and just ran the ball down the throat. Well, it also helps when you have like Trent Williams blocking for you in that game.
Yeah. And the 49ers. And all your weapons that are all healthy and look good. And I think maybe most importantly, if you have like prime debo where it's just like get debo the ball somehow, the ball in his hands and let him do the rest of it, that debo no longer exists. Yes. That debo, he looks like a shell of himself physically while simultaneously looking like a much larger version of himself. Yes. Physically? I was saying that you were right about Brock Purdy obviously being injured, but when we were talking about it on Friday,
Divo's definitely lost stuff. He looks big. Yeah. Him and Corral Patterson, I feel like they hit the same buffets in the off season. Yeah. It's the Niners are in a lot of trouble. And I don't know, like they have a tough schedule coming up. The Bills are next. And I don't
I think this is just going to be chalk it up to the season from hell. It might be a season from hell and what do you go for? Like it feels like a reset of everything because this window of the Niners and they did it with both Jimmy Garoppolo and then Brock Purdy going to two Super Bowls going to a bunch of NFC Championship games.
And they just kept on running into that wall. And then this year, it just feels like everyone's hurt. They got a lot of like, they got to pay Brock Purdy. There's a lot of guys getting paid right now. I don't know what you do. Just calcium and want to stick around as you want to come to Chicago. I don't know. I don't know. But you were asking that question.
I've noticed as the season gets progressively worse and worse for the 49ers, doesn't Kyle Shanahan look more and more homeless? Yes. Like he's every loss. He might not actually, he might not let himself go home after loss. He might just start walking back to his house and then it's so far away because the stadium's in the middle of nowhere. Yeah. That he just has to turn around and go back to work before he even gets home. It was the worst loss that Kyle Shanahan's taken since 2018. That's pretty bad. So it was pretty bad. They had back to back 12 men on the field penalties. Yeah. Which is very hard to do.
three turnovers couldn't do anything offensively. Very one dimensional there. It was more though like their defense obviously bosses out, but they got bullied. They got absolutely bullied by the Packers and Jordan Love even he didn't throw an interception credit to him. He tried a couple times. He also had Christian watching Watson drop like one of the most perfect deep balls ever. Yeah, that would have, you know, helped his stat line. But
I was just shocked with how like I thought the Niners were going to fight a little bit more and it felt like it just season from hell like this. I don't know. I don't know where they go. Like they have to start winning. I mean the NFC West at least no one's out of it.
But still, the Niners still have a schedule that's coming up that's like, it's not going to be easy. They have to go to Buffalo next week. And then they still have to play the Rams, Dolphins, Lions and Cardinals to finish the season. They have the Bears in there, which they probably win. You definitely win. Yeah. I mean, that's.
What I don't see the season turn around for if they go and I was thinking this like two weeks ago three weeks ago when they were when they were playing with their food and like even the the box game where That was when I was like this off a buy and they should have dominated a lot more as like there's some red flags going on But with the schedule that they have going for the rest of the season. There's six games left. They're five and six. I don't know. I mean
If they go four and two, okay, they're nine, they're nine and eight to finish the season. I mean, four and two would actually be pretty good with that schedule. Yeah. And they probably, they might not even make the playoffs. I would say they wouldn't make the playoffs. No, nine and eight would not make the playoffs. So yeah, maybe it's just season from hell. And then for the Packers, I'm, I'm starting to get nervous because they were flying around. And I know it's Brandon Allen, but still Xavier McKinney at his seventh interception. I am officially on, uh,
I'm nervous, watch. I'm nervous that they're gonna make a run. Yeah, the Packers are legitimately good. They're a good team. I change my Packers fans know me well enough that I start to change my tone when I start to get really nervous. I don't make the same jokes. I'm more like holding my breath for the rest of the season, hoping that things go poorly for them, but knowing that they're better than, I mean, they're eight and three in their third in the division, which just tells you how hard the NFC North is.
But their defense was everywhere. Josh Jacobs is a beast. And Jordan Love is getting healthier. And again, I feel like he wanted to throw a couple interceptions, but he technically threw no interception. Is Jordan Love a coward for not throwing any any interceptions? He tried. He tried a couple times. There was a couple big time drop interceptions. So he tried, but technically he did not throw an interception.
Yeah, so you know how I mentioned earlier that the Giants have one interception this season? Yeah. Xavier McKinney has seven. Yeah. Yeah, he's tied for the most. Yeah, that's all. The Giants could use a guy like him. Yeah. No, you mean the Niners? Oh, no, the Giants. Yes, the Giants who left who he used to play for. Yes. Yes, I would agree. Yeah. No, the Packers are just a very, very good football team. I don't know if they're an FC champion. I would not put them in the same class as your Lions or your Eagles, but I would say that they, uh,
I mean, they're kind of done a disservice by having to play in that division because if they were playing in like the NFC South, they would just smoke everyone. Please dolphins. Do something crazy in cold weather. Do something different than we all expected. Save Thanksgiving. Beat the Packers on Thanksgiving.
Yeah, dude. Okay, so we were talking about the dolphins earlier and how maybe since they aren't thought of as frauds this year, maybe this year where they can come and actually like be a little bit gritty. Yeah. I just, I just thought about Mike McDaniel in freeze and cold weather. Yeah. And now I can't, I can't believe him anymore. Yeah. I need to wipe that thought of my head. No, it's, it's just the teal uniforms. It's not going to work.
Yeah, he's probably gonna be vaping on the sidelines again They're probably gonna run the ball again down like just run it run it run it and then the Dolphins be like all right. We don't want to do this Tyreek Hill is gonna have like 17 layers underneath Mm-hmm have that neck that neck warmer that he has Tyreek needs to warm up just like he does like all his Instagram training videos in the summertime like the smallest shorts possible No shirt out on the field at Lambo
But that tirey kill proves that it's the jerseys because he played in cold weather games for the Chiefs. Yeah. And he was really good in cold weather games with the Chiefs. But then you put on the teal jerseys and you just can't, you just get extra cold. Yeah. It's nothing's adding up in my mental image of this game, but I hope I'm wrong. Yeah. I've been wrong before. Yeah. Okay.
next game or the Niners are perfect in the red zone today. Oh, nice. That's good. So that they fix it. They fix it. So you can only fix one thing at a time than something else breaks. Yeah. Now you gotta go fix that. They only got there once and they're perfect. Yep. Okay. Broncos 29 Raiders 19. Bonix. Bonix is.
Awesome. Yeah, he is on a tear his last three games. He's eight touchdown zero picks If you take out so the first two weeks of the season Bonix first two starts in the NFL He had zero touchdowns in four interceptions since then he's 16 touchdowns in two interceptions Sean Payton just has him playing like Drew Brees football in that he is just accurate and he's he's just making the right you know throws and
Courtland Sutton is one of the most underrated receivers in the NFL. He's gotten healthy and he's been awesome. He had two touchdowns today. The last five games, he had 36 catches, 467 yards and 3 TDs. Is everything that they were hoping that Jerry Judy would have been? Yeah. But the big question of this game is, and I know you have the answer, Shador Sanders.
Yes. Did he tweet? Sidor Sanders did in fact tweet today that God is great. Okay. After the raider. Well, actually, let me let me switch this up a little bit. He tweeted it today on the same day that the raider's lost. So he tweeted it probably after the church. People are saying he actually posted it after the Giants lost.
Oh, because he posted it early. Either he knew before kickoff that the Raiders were already going to lose this game. And he posted early or he's trying to go to the Giants and was happy that they lost. So we'll never know. What can you call it? Just might be going to church. Yeah, I think he's probably going to church. Man, we really need it. Oh, Friday, we're going to find out.
Oh, they're playing black Friday. They're playing black Friday. Yeah, you're going to go search on Friday. Vida's God is great on black Friday. Then it's clearly. Yes. Okay. It wants to be a raider. Because we also are going to maybe get, I think we're getting deserting redder. So, government should, I think, broke his collarbone.
I know Connor, like, might be back from IR, but he broke his thumb. Just give us someone new. It's so bad for the Raiders now. That's so depressing. Really, all the Raiders can do for us is just start a new quarterback every game. Yeah. Just like signing Guy off the street and let that guy start that week just to keep us interested. But as for Bonix, yeah, the last 10 games. You talked about taking out the first two games.
and how great his stats would be. If you take into account all of his touchdowns, he's got 20 touchdowns and only two turnovers since the start of week three. Yeah. It's crazy. He is playing like the rookie of the year right now. There are also eight and three against the spread.
Yeah, which is pretty good. They're not getting their respects. Not getting their embedding on them. I hope that people I hope they don't get more respect. I hope they keep making the lines. You know, this was under a touchdown. Did you see crazy bow? Well, yeah, crazy eyes. Oh, yeah. He doesn't care. He'll fight anyone. Crazy eyes bow. Crazy bow, Nick's has been unlocked.
He stared at who was on the Raiders that he stared down. Defensive lineman. I don't know who it was. You can see like all the whites of his eyes. Looked absolutely nuts. I'm doing shots of Bozemic, lines of cocaine. I am all in on Bonix. He's been awesome. Yes, he's great. And Sean Payton knows how to coach. Yep. We probably, it turns out he just needed his guy.
And not Russell Wilson. I like how when when bone aches in with the crazy as the ref stepped in to make sure that the Raiders player was OK. He's like, Hey, are you guys those are kind of illegal? Did that hurt? Yeah. Yeah. That's a little too much. It was at Torbert. I was Torbert. I was Torbert. Oh, Ron Torbert. Torbert kid in there being like, Hey, guys, come on. This is too much. Don't look at each other like this.
So I saw this take online. I love this take because I want to hear your thought about it. It's from Vic Lombardi. Okay. And anytime somebody the last name says something about football. Football, yeah. I believe them even if they're not related to Vince Lombardi. Yeah. Okay. He says, I know this is a very irrational tweet, but I have to say it. It bothers me so much when I see neighbors merely walking around the neighborhood during an important Broncos game.
They just gallivant about town with no care in the world about watching the local NFL team play football. How does this happen? What has my community become? Why does this make me angry? Am I alone in my misery? Oh, I think he's 100% right. Well, he's 100% right. But in the neighbor's defense, the Broncos have not been good for a while. So this is actually this was the first time that the Broncos won at the Raiders, both in Las Vegas and obviously in Oakland.
since Peyton Manning was playing for the Broncos. Yeah. So 2015, that's how long it's been since they won a road game against the Raiders. I think if you, I think it's basically by the time Christmas, actually, you know what, next season, if this happens next season, like you have a season to realize like, Hey, you got an awesome young quarterback because these are not, we're not talking about football fans. We're talking about the casual football fans, but casual football fans.
Once they realize that Bonix is there, they need to get their ass inside. They need to know that Bonix is there immediately. Yeah. No, I agree. I mean, we say it all the time. Like, what do people do that don't watch football on Sunday? Like, they just... They gallivant around town. They just...
Remember we went to that dinner and we sat next to, who's the guy? I can't remember his name. This gave me the guy who wrote the music for succession. Oh, yeah. And I asked him straight up. I was like, hey, not to like get too personal. But like, I was like, do you watch football? He's like, no. I was like, so what do you do on Sundays? He was like, is that with his family? No, he was like, I'll take like a walk, like in Central Park. Yeah. I'll do like shopping, get the laundry done. I'm like, holy shit.
I basically was talking to an alien. I was like, that's so fascinating. I just love the idea of somebody getting mad and thinking that somebody's gallivanting around because they're not watching football. I get it. I completely understand that mentality too. But I think what we have to do is just encourage if you're a fan of the Denver Broncos, if you're a listener, part of my take, you live in Denver.
Tell a friend. Well, they're not gallivanting around if they're listening to this show. Tell a friend. Go tell a friend. Yes. Like about Bonix. Let them know that they're missing out on Possible Rookie of the Year. If everybody in Denver that's listening to us right now goes out and tells two friends, hey, Bonix is fun. You should watch them. Yeah. And then they tell two friends. Then within like three chains of that, I think the entire city of Denver will be listening and watching Bronco's games on Sundays instead of gallivanting around without a care in the world.
I, it would piss me off too, especially when Bo Nix is playing like he's playing eight touchdowns, zero interceptions, the last three games guys on fire. And, and I, yeah, I think the Broncos are going to find a way to get in the playoffs looking at their schedule. That's for the Raiders. So we like Antonio Pierce. We had him on the show. I like his existence in the football ecosystem, but
This feels bad. Seven losses in a row. So the Raiders credit, they actually played the Broncos pretty evenly. They just had turnovers. If you look at yardage, if you look at first downs, the Raiders were able to move the ball.
They just had the costly, costly turnovers that changed the game. I would just like to go back to the Raiders off season and point to the fact that it seems like they didn't really have a plan of how they were going to win football games this year. And that's kind of what you need to do in the NFL is you have to have a plan of what our team is going to be. And that plan, generally speaking, shouldn't be AOC or Gardner Menchoo.
Yeah, or Desmond Ritter. Or Desmond Ritter. Yeah. If Desmond Ritter is included in your plan, it's a bad plan. So who's going to get you? So the Raiders, I believe, I don't think they have, I think they play the Jaguars, but other than that, I don't know if there's another win on this guy. The Raiders beat the Ravens. I kind of, like the Ravens winning the Super Bowl would be very funny, just to be like the Raiders beat the Ravens. Yeah, they don't have a lot of wins left other than the Jaguars games. So,
If they end up winning no more games, I think they would get the third pick depending on what happens. Oh, no, I guess they would get at least the second pick if they lost the Jaguars and the Giants might not win a game as well. Sure. So it feels to me like. Sure. And Dion. Well, so the Dion would look awesome on the sidelines. Carl did just get a big. That's what I'm saying. Unless Dion was like, hey, I'm going to stick around and then he leaves.
He brings his luggage with him and it's Gucci. It's Louis. Yeah, it's Louis. I don't think that's going to happen, but he could. It also, I know that he only owns what 5% of the team, but does feel like Tom Brady, like,
Tom Brady doesn't strike me as a guy who buys a piece of the Raiders and is cool with them just lose. And knowing how much Tom Brady absolutely hates the Super Bowls that he lost, there's a chance that Tom Brady bought part of the Raiders just so he could fire Antonio Pierce. True. Right? True. Hank?
Would you respect that move? Kind of. I kind of would, you have to respect it. I mean, more. He tried to, he tried to buy the Chiefs to fire spags. Yeah. But he's like, Oh shit. Yeah. The hunts won't sell to me. Could you, could you in theory, like to bench my homes and fire fire. Yeah. Yeah. Like in theory, I could see that being being more of like a a rocky three situation where he's like, meet me on the 50 yard line. No cameras one on one.
Yeah. Yeah. Hypothetically, if Elon Musk gave Tom Brady $50 billion, could he buy the Eagles and then just close the team? Probably. Oh, there's no animosity with the Eagles. No, he hates Nick Foles though, right? Yeah, but they don't even say his name. They did beat the Eagles. Yeah. They're one and one, one. Okay. It's a giant. It's the Giants. So could he buy the Giants and then shut the team down?
and theory by ESPN and fire the man in cast. Yeah. That would be funny. You buy the NFL. Yeah. And close shut down every team except for the Patriots and then put Robert Kraft into the Hall of Fame. That'd be nice to be a good, good gesture. Yeah. It's petty. Also, I want to, I want to clear some of because memes thought that Hank and I actually hated each other because we were sitting in different rooms a second ago. Oh, you do. I don't hate Hank. I, I actually want to thank you, Hank.
Oh, you're welcome. I want to thank you. Because now I have a very clear Super Bowl. And my Super Bowl this year is just making the playoffs. And I got something to fight against. That's good. So it's good. You got something to wake up every morning. Every day. I'm going to wake up. It's going to be Hank's Giving Week. I'm just going to be thinking about Hank's face every morning.
I'm going to be like, you know what, just make the playoffs. So I don't, I don't care what the end of the season record is. If we make the playoffs to me, that is a massive success in my book. That's my super good luck. Uh, okay. Last game in the afternoon, uh, and then we'll have Max on to talk about the Eagles thrashing the Rams. Seahawks 16 Cardinals six. This was gross, uh, in the fact that
Offensively I thought it was gonna be a shootout and it was not because the Seahawks defense is really really good and Mike McDonald He's got them. This is what we saw last year with the Ravens And now he's got them playing the way he wants him to play they were all over Kyler Murray sacked him five times James Connor had eight rushes seven rushes for eight yards and
The Cardinals could not run the ball whatsoever. They had 14 carries for 49 yards total. And yeah, the Seahawks now are top of the NFC West, just like we all thought. Yeah. So every time that you think the Seahawks are dead, they end up winning. Well, that's because of how they are. Yeah. It's because Gino tries to kill them.
Yeah. Gino threw another interception in the end zone. That's just third of the season. But I think I think the Seahawks defense is getting to a point where they might be Gino proof where you can, you can, and I mean, I, Gino can still like sling it and he has moments, but he also has moments where shit goes bad and now their defense could pick him up. And Jackson Smith and Jigba, Bubba, Bubba Bowie was awesome. You still messed that up. Yeah. No, I know it again. Jackson Smith, the Jig, Bubba Bowie.
I don't know how to do it. The jig bubble buoy. The jig bubble buoy. There you go. Yeah. He's awesome. And yeah, the Seahawks are top of the NFC West. Yeah, their defense is great. Kobe Bryant did the hold my dick when he jumped in the end zone. March on.
Things have changed so much in the NFL where like a decade ago, Roger Goodell would try to suspend you for doing that. Now, team accounts were just like posting closeups of their players doing the whole my dick. Which I love. I think it's good. It's good that we're doing that. We're celebrating it. And the Seahawks first place in the NFC West. It's a mess in the NFC West. And they play the Jets next, right?
Yeah. Who they might be. And then the cards have the Vikings. Ooh, if the Jets so, if the Jets win that game, could they run the table, memes? It's a big game for the Jets. Huge game for the Jets. In theory. That's what I like to hear. I'm happy that it came out that Aaron Rodgers has so many injuries. He doesn't want to get scans to tell him how many injuries he has, but he's gutting it out. That's HIPAA. It's a HIPAA violation for asking him to do scans. Yeah.
You gotta love that memes. He's got two years left. I understand the athlete not wanting to come out of the game and being like, I only have certain amount of games left, but just sit a couple of games out, so it went some games. I think he might just be afraid of going to the doctors.
A lot of people are. Yeah. Like they don't like doctors. You don't like doctors looking at you and prodding you. You know, like, Blake doesn't like going to the vet. I get it. I think that's exactly what Aaron's going. I got a physical on Friday. Actually went pretty well. Also really pathetic because like all the things that you joke about with like a physical, like the doctor was like, how many drinks do you have a week? And I was like zero. And he's like, do you like, we ask everyone, do you need an STD test? He's like, nope. Like I just, it was just, I was the biggest loser ever.
He's like, do you do drugs? And I was like, you used to. Not anymore. Don't do shit. So maybe, maybe he shouldn't be afraid anymore. Cause once you get older, go to the doctor's actually like, you should do it. Cause remember when you're in your twenties and the doctor's like, how many drinks you have? You're like, uh, uh, five.
So I had a doctor's appointment like three weeks ago and they asked me the alcohol question and I said, okay, so I wanna be honest with you, I would lie about this if this was a long time ago, but I'm just gonna tell you the truth now, so you don't have to do the math. You don't have to do the like, take whatever number of views I say per week and multiply it by three. I'm just gonna be honest with you. And then he was like, okay. And then I told him the amount and then he like, silently multiplied it by three and he said, I was like, you don't stop doing that. You don't have to do the math.
I was just in such a bad spot of feeling like such a loser to my doctor that when he was like, do you do drugs? Like, no. I was like, but I used to, you know, cocaine, mushrooms. I like started listing shit. He's like, okay, but you don't. And I was like, no. No, but let me tell you about this one. But I used to do it, dude. I swear to God. It'd be very funny if you lied to him to your doctor to feel more cool. Yeah, that's what I was doing. You're like, can I actually, why don't you just give me an STD test? Just in case.
Oh, man. Yeah, no, it's brutal. It's brutal. Uh, Seahawks Cardinals though. Yeah, that game's stunk. And yeah, bad game, bad game, bad bird fight. Kyler Murray looked very short today. He did. And he gets sacked like that. He just looked so short in the all whites. Was it Witherspoon that was able to chase him down a couple of times? Yeah, I love watching Witherspoon. Yeah, it was a tough game to watch, but that's the problem with the three games in the afternoon. They're doing it to us again on Sunday.
How dare they? How dare they? Yeah, Sunday is the weird where, you know, we have four games on Thursday and Friday. So you'd think with no buys, we're going to have the like full Sunday, but we don't. Yeah, we don't. We have regular old Sunday. Black Friday is so unnecessary. I agree. Hank, thank you. So unnecessary. Listen, so unnecessary.
Yeah, the NFL just, it's the old meme of like the United States government being like, we're gonna fight three wars and we're gonna fund seven regimes in South America. We're like, we just want healthcare. And this, it's like, we just give me four games in the afternoon. And the NFL is like, well, we're gonna have a game in Germany. We're gonna have three to four games in Europe. We have one in Brazil and one in Mexico and one on Black Friday.
Just give us one more game on Sunday afternoon. So if three games suck, we're not stuck, you know, stuck watching them. Please. Yeah. That's all we ask. Okay. We're going to finish up with Max. Why do I only see one game in the afternoon? On next Sunday? Yeah. Bucks Panthers. No, Bucks Panthers, Rams, Saints, Eagles, Ravens.
Oh, okay, so the Eagles game isn't listed since I just ended. Yeah, and Ravens is tomorrow. And Rams Saints isn't listed because it just ended. Yeah. Yeah. Um, yeah. No, we have three games in the afternoon. Uh, I'll, Steelers, Steelers, Steelers Bengals will be good. I'm a reminder to everyone we're not, we, we don't have a show on Friday this week. We have one on Wednesday. It's going to be extra long. We're going to tell you when you can stop if you have to work on Friday. Um, but a preview is I'm very nervous about
How bad the bears are going to lose on Thursday to set the tone for Thanksgiving. It's an early tone setter. Also, Fred Smoot. Yeah, Fred Smoot is was an awesome interview. Yeah, we have a great, great show coming for you Wednesday. All right. Before we get to Max, who's going to join us, he's already back in Philly and talk about the Sunday night football game.

Okay. Sunday night football. Eagles kick the shit out of the Rams and our guy Max. He's back in Philly. What is he going? Where's he going? Where's he going? Where's he going? He's going to the bathroom. He's got to wipe his ass. He definitely forgot to wipe his ass. He's got to poop again. What happened? I was just crawling on the floor behind me trying to get her phone that she left in this room.
It's like literally army crawl. All right, Max. That was a shit kicking. The Eagles are really fucking good. Yeah. Yes. I mean, that is abundantly clear at this point. They're just kicking the shit out of everybody. Sequin Barkley deserves to be in the MVP conversation. Yeah, I agree. He's incredible. I was told he was nothing more than a Twitter running back.
I was also told that I have to be there to not to draft him in the first or second round of my fantasy drafts. Yeah. Interesting. QB 16 because he had only gone over a thousand five yards once in the last. I think it was like twice in the last four years. No, it was once in his career. A thousand and five yards. Yeah. Not a thousand. A thousand and five. Yeah. Yeah. No, Seguan 255 yards, two touchdowns. It's insane. He.
like he's just can't as soon as he gets a little bit of space you can't bring him down he he was just breaking people down uh... jailin hurts no turnovers again so what i mean what's stopping you guys from just win the whole god damn thing back now i think it's everyone's been anointing the lions the winners of the nfc
I would like to know what makes a line so much better than the Eagles at this point. Okay. You can say coaching other than coaching. Yeah. That was going to be what unit is better than is better than the Eagles. That was going to be my one thing was the end of the first half today. And like we're nitpicking right now because the Eagles are so good. But they still had that one moment where you're like, what is Nick Sirani thinking right now? Even then I didn't really like
I don't like that the aggressiveness is not like that big of a deal that like Truss your defense not to give it by how married and then that yeah people were mad that we weren't streaming your back for Thanksgiving and they would have been even more mad if we did stream because it was like it was the perfect game for the Eagles it was never you guys were like maybe a little sweat when you were down what seven to three and then it was just nothing
Yeah, the first two drives were like, all right, this is a different offense. Like. Frozen. Frozen. I think I like to think he's just in deep contemplation. He was. He was. He was frozen. Frozen. We'll keep that in. Yeah. The first two drives. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. No, the first two drives were a little scary because it was like, all right, this Rams deep offense is a little bit is a little bit different than the past teams that we've been playing. But then.
the defense settled in and it was like right back to where we were like looking like with the best unit in football. Yeah. Max, do you see you weren't with us this Sunday. Do you have any questions for anyone about their games or anything that happened Sunday? All I know is that the Eagles went up three games in the division. I mean, I had some family stuff going on. So I didn't get to watch every game, but apparently we're up three games in the lost column. Is that true?
It's true. Oh, do you have any other any other takes about it? No, I just didn't really know. I know that there was a missed kick and was there. Well, can you can you elaborate on anything or no? Yeah, Hank Hank was a bitch.
Hank. That's my, you missed that. It was a bitch. Yeah. Hank existed. I feel like he was probably just existing. No, no, no. Well, maybe, you know what? I've kind of come around to it. It is Hank can't exist because his entire existence is being a troll. So anytime he's existing, you have every right to be mad at him. Max, would you say that? Max was here when you ran that material last week. What? Max heard you do that bit. What bit? Two days ago. What bit?
I don't know what you're talking about. Yeah, I don't know what you're talking about. I live my life as a troll, yadda yadda yadda. Boy, yeah, that was all. See, we're doing it again. That's true. Max, do you have any questions about anyone in the cave or how we acted? Well, I have one more thing.
I remember when we did our preview, we were like, the commanders need to crush the cowboy. Yeah, we did say that. Yeah, I agree. Did they crush the Cowboys? No, listen, Max, here's the thing. We lost the Cowboys today. Oh, and you're right. There was a miss kick at the end. There was a miss kick at the end, but it never sort of even come down to that because the Cowboys just beat us.
previously in that game. So we were lucky to even be back in it at the end. And it took a whole lot of luck and weird shit to let us get back to that point. But we were so bad for the previous three and three quarters of a quarter that it's not about the miss kick. It's just about the team not being very good. Would you have gone for two max in that situation? Say it again. Would you have gone for two in that situation? I don't know. I heard that the guy missed a kick earlier in the game. So mayb
