Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:01):
Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to another installment. A for the fan,
Episode number one sixty eight is always I am well
and we got done. We've got Jake here, gentlemen. Hello.
So stop TikTok is absolutely failing us. So I want
to start by selling hold early and I'm selling TikTok
okay because well, this is just a big freaking kick
to the dick. That's what it's going on right now.

(00:22):
It's humid as hell, it's disgusting outside. This isn't even fall.
This is just like summer seven point four going on
here in New Jersey. But you can also follow us
on all the social media platforms down below. YouTube for
the fan network, TikTok for the fed network, X for
the fan Underscore, and Instagram for the fan football gentlemen.

(00:44):
Week three came in like a lion and actually left
like a lion as well, if you want to count
Monday night football with that matter. Early impressions, late impressions,
well after the fact. I mean, we'll be.

Speaker 2 (00:54):
Talking about week four very shortly. Here's the good death
of injuries. It's always one of the first flour It's true.

Speaker 1 (01:08):
It is. If there's a big injury report right now,
so we're gonna be going through that. They'll take me
at least like, I don't know, ten minutes, twenty minutes.
It's a long list of people. It's just a freakin'.

Speaker 2 (01:20):
It's everybody half the show.

Speaker 1 (01:22):
It's it's that scroll. But it just like never ending.
It just keeps on going on and on and on.
That's what. That's what it's going down there.

Speaker 3 (01:28):
Every time you think you get to the bottom the scroll.

Speaker 1 (01:32):
A new injury just you know, piles on.

Speaker 2 (01:35):
Yeah, the scroll bar starts lagging, so it's like you
think you're getting the end.

Speaker 4 (01:38):
It like kicks up and gets smaller and then you
gotta go. Yeah, that's the worst.

Speaker 1 (01:43):
Ah man. Well, for those watch it on X and YouTube,
thank you for tuning in. Uh and yeah, you're listening
and or watching for the fan. You are listening to
for the fan. What a week three. It was a

(02:18):
lot of moonballs, a lot of blocked field goals. I
don't know what was in the water this week, but
holy hell, there was a lot of stuff just going
in and around everywhere, up and down, left and right.
But obviously we got to start out with the first
thing here from this week's some news. Yesterday, the Giants
announced that they are benching Russell Wilson after sending two
hail mary's from the Kansas City seven yard line into

(02:41):
the stands there probably fifty rows deep in the lower
bowl to conclude one of the last drives that might
be his last pass as a New York Giants starting quarterback.
Jackson Dart, the number twenty five overall selection out of
Ole Miss, is going to be taking the helm this
Sunday in MetLife Stadium against the Los Angeles Chargers. And gentlemen,

(03:03):
what are your guys' thoughts on the rookie? Only three
weeks in they're turning to him as a late second
hail mary?

Speaker 2 (03:12):
Help Well, if you're gonna help me understand if he was,
if he wasn't ready week one, how is he ready now?
Just make that one makes sense to me. Help me
understand how this is anything other than organizational politics and
not what's best for a long term outlook for the quarterback.

Speaker 4 (03:35):
Well, we knew going into the season that this season
was like a strictly.

Speaker 3 (03:44):
And you're coaching staff trying to save their jobs, and you.

Speaker 2 (03:47):
Know, I saw it coming a mile away because I
believe I said multiple times on the show. But I
know I said to you guys like he's gonna start
before the first Eagles game. I've said it since the
day he got drafted, because this is how the poverty
organization works is they didn't want to sell another home
game of tickets where people didn't either didn't show up
and buy tickets or showed him booed. They didn't want

(04:10):
the optics or the loss of revenue. So let's start
the kid and thet them get absolutely trounced by the Chargers.

Speaker 3 (04:18):
I don't mean.

Speaker 1 (04:19):
They're one home game. They were giving away free medium
sized pepsis. That was their thank you to the fans
back in twenty twenty one. So wow, they've they've done
worse there. They have done worse.

Speaker 3 (04:31):
I don't know what the point of Jameis Winston is
on the roster.

Speaker 2 (04:34):
Yeah, if you don't like, if that's what you want
to do.

Speaker 1 (04:37):
Like, just just start Jamis for a game or two,
or just one until the Saints game.

Speaker 3 (04:44):
Yeah, I don't know.

Speaker 4 (04:45):
I don't I don't think he's necessarily gonna get eaten alive.

Speaker 3 (04:50):
I don't think I'll have a great game.

Speaker 4 (04:55):
I also found it weird that Dave All only referred
in the press conference to Russell Wilson as Russ after
they've only been together for three games and one off season. Like,
it just doesn't feel serious. Uh, the whole thing just
feels unseerious to me. Like I get, I get we

(05:15):
call him Russ, but like, I don't know, the whole
thing is just so it's always weird.

Speaker 3 (05:21):
It's always so weird.

Speaker 2 (05:22):
The whole thing seemed unserious because you signed to two
quarterbacks and then trade it up for a kid.

Speaker 3 (05:26):
Yeah, so, and it doesn't help.

Speaker 1 (05:29):
Too abdual quarter's not even with that defensive front that
they have. I don't know how many snaps they play
together with Burns and Lawrence and all the other companies.
It's just it's not looking like a very good class
outside of other fourth round pick in camp Scattabo.

Speaker 3 (05:43):
Well, it's also it's also none of it's a good look.
It's also not a good look.

Speaker 4 (05:47):
When like Xavier McKinney is leading the league in interceptions
and you didn't keep him, and then you have Daniel
Jones who's just balling the f out and you didn't
you chose to not have him, and then say Kua. Now, granted,
Tyrone Tracy is great, Scattabo's fun, but.

Speaker 3 (06:03):
Like, you know, you failed to keep the guys.

Speaker 4 (06:09):
That's I don't know if i'd say Daniel Jones matters,
but clearly he wasn't the issue because he can succeed
uh and I think he's had a better three game
stretch than he ever had for the Giants. So I
don't know, dude, none of it. It's a good look.
It's been stale you had. You ended the season with

(06:32):
the last few weeks of fans paying or doing it
themselves where they drove the plane over the stadium that
had the banner behind it saying, you know, fire everyone.

Speaker 2 (06:44):
Basically, I don't think it's anybody that's employed.

Speaker 3 (06:48):
What do you mean.

Speaker 2 (06:50):
The Mars and the Tities, Mostly the Mars because are
the ones who are super active.

Speaker 4 (06:55):
And oh, I just think, I just think none of
this is like you just can't care on with what
you got going on.

Speaker 3 (07:01):
The coaching staff needs to change.

Speaker 4 (07:03):
There's a clear issue top to bottom, like.

Speaker 3 (07:06):
Blow it up.

Speaker 1 (07:07):
It was the same issues under the last guy, and
it was it was the same as the last guy. Yeah,
like Ben McAdoo had the best season since the Super Bowl.

Speaker 3 (07:17):
For them, and that that wasn't was a wonder.

Speaker 1 (07:21):
Wonder for the next reason, that's just.

Speaker 3 (07:25):
I think you got to blow it up top to bottom.
Blow it up. You're not in a place where this
is successful.

Speaker 2 (07:32):
What's the point I sent to you, guys.

Speaker 3 (07:34):
We're treading water. Actually we're struggling to tread water.

Speaker 1 (07:37):
They just all they were drowning for like all years,
just shuffling deck chairs on the Titanic. Yeah, it's those
center blocks we have been talking about. Yeah, both the
Jets and Giants are about, you know, ninety five wins
and one hundred and fifty low. I think it's a
I think it's one hundred and ten wins since like
I don't I don't even know when. I don't know

(07:58):
when it like was like twenty fifteen or something since
moving into Met Life. Jets nine four, Giants ninety.

Speaker 4 (08:06):
Eight, and I believe those are the since that time.
Those are the two bottom records and tire thirty two
league at least since like in the past ten years.
I know they have the bottom two records in the league.

Speaker 3 (08:23):
And the Browns are okay bottom three, doesn't still not
and if.

Speaker 1 (08:28):
You want to include the Jaguars and they rebrand into
whatever ugly ass logo they have. Now they are just
the worst team with them as well.

Speaker 3 (08:35):
I think.

Speaker 4 (08:37):
Well is right that it is on an Indian burial site,
and it has to be.

Speaker 2 (08:44):
Everyone gets hurt.

Speaker 1 (08:45):
It was an Indian burial site. Then they probably threw
a bunch of garbage on top of it, made it
a landfill, and they're like, oh, we should put a
stadium here, and then now the Indians are so pissed.
They would have been okay if it was like a
casino or something, but now it's just like garbage atop
a garbage playing on top of the garbage at top
of where their ancestors once were and got buried and

(09:06):
all that stuff. Yeah, that's probably what happened up there.

Speaker 4 (09:08):
You just have like ghosts of them reaching out and
grabbing Aaron Rodgers ankle.

Speaker 2 (09:13):
And well, you know when Daniel Jones fell on a
seventy yard run.

Speaker 1 (09:18):
Literally that wasn't the link though.

Speaker 2 (09:24):
It follows it.

Speaker 1 (09:28):
Whatever his name is, Big don He hit a button
he was at the beat ups hit the button for
the sprinkler head they go up. That's what tripped them.

Speaker 3 (09:35):
But it's just man it's just so how do you have.

Speaker 4 (09:41):
Two NFL teams in one of the top markets in
sports in the world and they are literally two of
the least successful teams for an entire decade.

Speaker 1 (09:54):
I think the expectations just so high. They're just way
too high, because it's like, oh, New York City of Light,
you gotta be successful, you got to bring home a championship,
like you have like everyone in the world watching you
because you're in New York City. It's not like Green Bay,
Like I haven't heard much about Micah Parsons since he
left Dallas to go to Green Bay. Like it's just
silent Baker. Oh yeah, you heard everything about Baker. He

(10:16):
goes to Tampa Bay. It's silent. Like all these like
major cities just get so much in there.

Speaker 2 (10:21):
But it's just like, what's the what what's the difference
in Philadelphia and Boston.

Speaker 3 (10:25):
Then I was.

Speaker 4 (10:26):
Gonna say Boston, Boston has success, they don't have Well,
Pittsburgh's not a top they're not shoes.

Speaker 1 (10:34):
They got three rivers.

Speaker 2 (10:35):
Well, I mean, the only thing that whole city cares
about are the Steelers and nothing else.

Speaker 3 (10:40):
Well set of Mesopotamia. But like, I don't know what.

Speaker 2 (10:44):
That's only two.

Speaker 1 (10:47):
But you know Pittsburgh also has three bridges for those
three rivers too, so lot of getting around in that
two cities in the same state. Yeah, all right, let's
go to the the injury round up where the state
of California just had so many injuries on this past Sunday,
especially in the late window. Nick Bosa tore in ACL.

(11:07):
He's done for the season. He tore the other one.
In the COVID year against the Jets, he tore his
right one, so now he has two ACL tears. Well,
in ACL tear in each of his knees, so that's
not good. In the same game as well, James Connor
got wrapped up and it did not look very good
because Fox did not want to show a replay of
a foot injury. He got carted off. He's been put
on IR. His season is over. According to some sources,

(11:30):
Najee Harris on a play action run he blew out
his achilles. He's also done for the year. Omarion Hampton
is now the lead back for the Los Angeles Chargers. There,
Browns ended up losing Dewan Jones for the year due
to not even seeing it. Yep, he's out for the year,
though as I scroll up, though.

Speaker 3 (11:52):
The might be by choice. Who knows, uh?

Speaker 1 (11:56):
Colts Alec Pearce's in concussion protocol Ceedee Lamb ended up
hurting his ankle in Chicago. They are projecting it to
be a three to four week injury, but other people
are saying it could be a two to three week injury,
so some questions there. Jayden Daniels was limited in practice
that he says he feels better, but that does not
mean he's guaranteed to be back and playing Sunday against

(12:19):
the Atlanta Falcons. Marcus Davenport placed an injury reserve on
a PEX strain for the Detroit Lions. He's out at
least four games. Let me scroll up to the rest
here see everything else that's going on. Herennd Matubique for
the Ravens won't play someday do to his neck injury.
There was some talks about him going on to IR

(12:43):
if I scrolled down a little bit more. Titans cam
Ward ankle and calf was limited in practice today. Rock
Perty was limited for the Niners, but Ricky Pearsall and
Juwan Jennings did not practice for the San Francisco forty
nine ers. Tetra McMillen for the Panthers and not practice
due to a calf injury. Terry McLaurin is not looking

(13:06):
to be playing this week due to a injury that
he suffered. Nolan Nolan Smith, who had a triceps injury
last year, ended up straining it. He's been put on
I R so he's gonna be missing at least the
next four weeks.

Speaker 2 (13:21):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (13:22):
Yeah, I think I might have hit it all. Maybe.
Uh Zach Tom, the Packers right tackle, is not expected
to play against the Cowboys, but with the bye week
next week, they're looking to regroup after the buy and
see if he's going to be able to go up
against the Cincinnati Bengals in lambeau Field week number seven.

(13:43):
I think, Uh, I think we got it all. Mike
Evans hamstring's gonna miss a couple of weeks as well,
So yeah, there we go.

Speaker 2 (13:50):
Is there anything on like the status of uh Tristan
Works and Chris Godwin?

Speaker 1 (13:56):
Uh they I think they they might be able to
come back and play. I know Godwin is I don't
know about Worfs. I know they said Godwin could be
like a week five or week six return. Yeah, well
I looked at their last week practice reports and they
were limited the entire week, but ruled out without them.

Speaker 3 (14:15):
I don't think Godwin's ready yet.

Speaker 2 (14:16):
They were never put on pup so that they could
come back earlier.

Speaker 1 (14:24):
Yeah, they didn't. They were not put on pup. They
weren't put on i R. They were allowing them to
play and do all that kind of stuff. But there
is no uh update though on Twitter.

Speaker 2 (14:36):
Well because I don't know if you said those ones,
but like the last.

Speaker 1 (14:40):
One I saw is from Tampa Bay Sports Daily that
says they've made good progress in practice last week. They
will not be playing against the Jets in week three,
but Godwin I think could be a week five return.
But also with the Mike Evans injury, I don't know
if that would be like let's kind of get you
back in a week early because he did have a

(15:00):
second surgery that was to clean up a lot of
the stuff to end his ankle, which was like minor
compared to what he had to go through last October
November time.

Speaker 2 (15:10):
So I said they could to say because both Dori
Jackson and Jacooran are.

Speaker 1 (15:18):
Hurt, everyone's hurd on the Eagles defense. Well not everyone
at least three. And here we go. Let's go into
let's go into some debate questions, gentlemen, who impressed from
week at number three this past week? I get the

(15:40):
homersm right out of the way.

Speaker 2 (15:43):
One Jalen hurts, are you sure not?

Speaker 1 (15:46):
The other Jalen made that ran eighteen point sixty six
miles an hour on the field goal block.

Speaker 2 (15:51):
Good job. No, A lot of a lot of game
and it's you know, I'm not comparing, but a lot
of that game reminded me of the Bellachick and Brady
just do your job and then you know, getting everybody
ready on the sideline kind of stuff that you always
saw in those games when the Patriots were inevitable.

Speaker 1 (16:12):
Mm hm, I do have one. Well, I'm just want
to group a whole team the Minnesota Vikings, Mamma, Carson
Wentz and Jordan Mason and everyone there just assault on
national TV. Just the saw stop.

Speaker 2 (16:29):
He's already dead.

Speaker 3 (16:30):
They played out, man, they really bobbed out.

Speaker 1 (16:34):
Like Carson Wentz then to have the most impressive stat line,
but for his first game since December of twenty three, Yeah,
I looked really good. You couldn't ask for anything else,
and with a very bad Bengals team that they're still
trying to figure themselves out and maybe, just maybe we've
invent the forward pass. Uh Vikings said, look really good.

Speaker 2 (16:58):
I mean, how can you not give Baker a lot
of love?

Speaker 3 (17:02):
Yeah, dude, it's just how balls of absolute steel?

Speaker 2 (17:07):
Like that drive was easy easy.

Speaker 1 (17:10):
Everyone on the Jets was hurt. Quincy Williams left, Sauce
was out, like everyone like there was no surviving souls
on that Jets defense.

Speaker 3 (17:17):
It was hurt.

Speaker 2 (17:18):
So it's like, see, I didn't I mean, I didn't
know that either because I turned that on and like
I saw that the Jets blocked the kick. I changed
the game.

Speaker 1 (17:26):
Right after the Eagles one and I went over and
I'm like, oh my god, it just happened again with
the I caught the end of the kick and then
then the obviously they drive they followed that.

Speaker 2 (17:38):
Baker just let him right down the field. But that
was a wild thirty minutes for me.

Speaker 1 (17:45):
I did that meme where you know you're lean back
in the chair and you get up. That was me.
I was like, are they gonna do something here? I
was really unimpressed for fifty eight minutes and yeah, I
literally fifty eight minutes. I was not impressed with the team.
And then just like, okay, they have to be back
in and they said, you know what, we got to
curb stamp your heart again.

Speaker 2 (18:03):
Well, how do you think I felt negative one passing
yards in the first half?

Speaker 1 (18:07):
Yeah, somehow won the game.

Speaker 3 (18:14):
I don't you know.

Speaker 4 (18:15):
Honestly, I don't know who impressed me. I will say
because I wrote them down for a buy and then
I was like, I bought them week one.

Speaker 3 (18:29):
I can't even buy them. But it needs to be said.

Speaker 4 (18:32):
The Chargers just ran the division straight through and came
out all w's. So I'm just saying that's I'm very
happy with how that's going.

Speaker 2 (18:43):
That's not even the most impressive part of that game.
That's the kind of game late late in the game
that the Chargers would charger and just blow yeh.

Speaker 3 (18:52):
But dude, I mean like, and then you have nause
you know, pop his achilles.

Speaker 4 (19:00):
You still make a first down a completion out of it.
Herbert look poised like it just you just ran the division.
You ran table in the division week one through three,
which no one needs to or should be put through.

Speaker 3 (19:15):
That's weird. To me, But you took the schedule.

Speaker 4 (19:19):
To the chin, ran through it, and now you're three
and zero against your division to start your season.

Speaker 3 (19:25):
I don't know if vibes could be higher there.

Speaker 4 (19:27):
So cool, I think the Chargers, I think in the
entire league, when you're talking about teams where the expectations
they're performing two expectations whatever. All right, that's cool, Like
Detroit wins, the Bills win, like whatever, we expect that.
But like as far as you know, exceeding or raising expectations,

(19:52):
I think the Chargers are on the top of the
league right now.

Speaker 1 (19:54):
As far as they're my number one team, I'll just
spoil that for Power Rakings next week have.

Speaker 3 (20:00):
To go through it. I don't know if I could
do that yet, but they they might be.

Speaker 4 (20:03):
I mean, they'd probably be a top five for me easily,
right off, right off the top.

Speaker 3 (20:09):
But I'm impressed. I like what they've been doing. They're good.
They have they have a lot of the factors that
you hope for and you want.

Speaker 4 (20:17):
Just like Detroit has that that you know, big playability
and consistency factor, the Chargers seem to also be having
that right now when plays need to be made, they're
made Quentin Johnson's your dude, You're Jamison Williams, but maybe
even a little bit more consistent. So I I like
I like the path they are on. I think it

(20:39):
is the path we've been hoping that Justin Herbert could
be on for the last whatever however, five six years
or whatever.

Speaker 3 (20:46):
So go Chargers.

Speaker 1 (20:48):
I guess a new injury report came through. Xavier Worthy
was a full participant in practice today.

Speaker 2 (20:57):
Okay, that sounds about right.

Speaker 1 (20:59):
So after being limited last week, you know some questionableness
of fifty to fifty, it looks like he's on track
to play against the Ravens on Sunday. Which one team
in that game is gonna go two and two and
the other team's gonna go one in three. So it's
not good for either team to be in that position
this early.

Speaker 2 (21:15):
I can guarantee which team that's gonna be.

Speaker 3 (21:18):
Oh lot, nom nikame.

Speaker 1 (21:21):
So I sent you guys this list of one hundred
and twenty eight modern era player nominated for the Pro
Football Hall of Fame Class twenty twenty six. I know
you guys are very critical of this list, because I
was getting my phone blown up while I was just
enjoying a lunch of my fiancee not look at it.

Speaker 3 (21:40):
I mean I saw that you sent it, but I
have not.

Speaker 1 (21:43):
Looked out of the people on this list. Okay, who
should be the guaranteed lock to make it?

Speaker 2 (21:51):
We're gonna do this live lock to make it as
in like first ballot or just just lock out of
these people.

Speaker 1 (22:00):
There's a lot of names here, Okay, we have a
really stacked receivehn Core here with Ant Kwam Bold and
Donald Driver, Larry Fits, Tory Holt, Chad Johnson, Brandon Lloyd,
Brandon Marshall, Derek Mason, Herman Moore, uh must and Muhammad,
Jordy Nelson, Jimmy Smith, Rod Smith, Steve Smith Senior, Hines,
Ward Reggie, Wayne, Wes Welker, and Roddy White.

Speaker 2 (22:22):
All right, well, Jonathan Abraham, that's that?

Speaker 3 (22:26):
That?

Speaker 1 (22:27):
Can that be over? Plates?

Speaker 3 (22:28):
Could he just be in?

Speaker 1 (22:29):
Bro even Robert math is there, I mean like he
should be in as well, Like.

Speaker 4 (22:33):
Yeah, but not over Jonathan Abraham. We did we did this,
We did this. This was that conversation.

Speaker 1 (22:37):
No, I know, don't worry. You guys are blowing on
my phone like, oh, isn't this so stupid? Like how
is this not going to be a thing.

Speaker 5 (22:42):
No, I thought it was before an episode. I think
we're blowing up your ears with it. We had the
list pulled up and everything.

Speaker 1 (22:49):
I will say.

Speaker 3 (22:50):
I think last year.

Speaker 4 (22:52):
We also looked at some players and Tory Holt not
being on there's kind of nuts when like all the
rest of his teammates are on there.

Speaker 2 (23:00):
Uh oh, Randall Cunningham, I know he didn't never won
It's championship. Cunningham needs to be in.

Speaker 1 (23:06):
I need London Fletcher to be in. I really do
that May does not get any respect in his entire career.
It just doesn't make any sense.

Speaker 2 (23:15):
Honestly, I don't think if. I don't think eight of
these ten quarterbacks are Hall of famers.

Speaker 3 (23:21):
I think Drew Brees makes it in.

Speaker 2 (23:23):
Drew Brees should make it in.

Speaker 4 (23:24):
He had, he held number one records before Tom Brady
broke them.

Speaker 2 (23:29):
So in my opinion, Randall Cunningham's a Hall of Famer.

Speaker 1 (23:33):
But then like Jake the Loom, Richard, Jeff Garcia, Eli
Banning definitely not McNabb, not McNair. Phil is as four
line as it gets, Door make it.

Speaker 3 (23:47):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (23:48):
I don't think so.

Speaker 4 (23:49):
I don't think so either, when you, dude, I like
looking at these running backs because we grew up with
like this was your Sean Alexander. Absolutely when you were
making like your experience to fantasy football, all these dudes
were guys like Aaron.

Speaker 1 (24:04):
You're playing your first like Madden, like Madden O six,
and you're like.

Speaker 6 (24:07):
Holy crap, Sean McCoy like like, how is Mike Allstar
not in there?

Speaker 3 (24:14):
What?

Speaker 1 (24:14):
How is what Mike Allstar? That's a guy that you
don't want to run into on the field. That was
a guy that you know to anywhere, avoided at all times,
even the tight ends, like Delaney Walker being there, Like
I thought he just left the league like three years ago.
So the fact that he's like on this list is
like wild to me.

Speaker 4 (24:32):
Tell you about seeing Chris Johnson's name is wild. The
fact that we've watched his entire career. I remember all
the you know, CJO two K, that whole thing, and
now we're at the point where he's eligible.

Speaker 3 (24:43):
It's kind of nuts.

Speaker 1 (24:44):
Get away from the cop speed.

Speaker 3 (24:48):
Does Vernon Davis make it end? Probably nah?

Speaker 1 (24:51):
He like I want Donald Driver to make it Like
when I started watching obviously it was at the end
of his career, so he was obviously slowing down. He
wasn't the same guy as he was like the early
two thousands. But like man, almost all of these linebackers
are like, yeah, hall of famers, if not borerline first ballots.

Speaker 4 (25:11):
That all of these, all of these linebackers are Hall
of fame in their team's hall of fame already, like
all of them, every single one of them hands KEYO Spikes, Wow,
Terrell Suggs will be a for.

Speaker 1 (25:24):
That has to be Clay Matthew's dad, right, or is
that the Clay.

Speaker 2 (25:28):
Matthews Matthews right?

Speaker 1 (25:31):
And then because Jake Matthews, because Jake Matthews, his brother
is the tackle for the Falcons. Yeah, okay, yeah, the
bad one that was an eagle Casey Matthews.

Speaker 4 (25:45):
Reproduces don't have been a Terry's on here.

Speaker 1 (25:49):
He should make it. He should, like, come on, the
longevity of him and four Super Bowls as a kicker
is like, honestly, he probably should be first ballot as
a kicker.

Speaker 2 (25:57):
That's what I thought all the time. Scorer in the
end NFL history?

Speaker 3 (26:01):
Is this his first ballot?

Speaker 1 (26:02):
So if they're italicized on the article here, it says
if they are italicized. Italics indicate first year eligibility. So
obviously that's like Drew Brees and Philip Rivers, but like
phil oh they updated it because Philip Rivers had like
an asterisk next to him earlier. So I was like
confused about But I don't know what the freaking dashes are.

(26:24):
It's not even like that explained because oh, so the
dashes were the finalist from last year.

Speaker 3 (26:32):
Minitari was a finalist. They didn't make it, and you're
kidding me, bro, get out of here.

Speaker 2 (26:38):
Yeah, not making it last year, Now.

Speaker 3 (26:41):
It's like that.

Speaker 1 (26:42):
That's that thing where it's like, okay, they play seven years, Like,
are you really sure that that's a Hall of Famer?

Speaker 3 (26:49):
I mean, yeah, he was.

Speaker 2 (26:50):
He was easily the best linebacker Rose era period.

Speaker 1 (26:54):
Acting like Andrew Luck isn't even on this list either,
But I know it's like weird because he didn't end
up playing for like two and a half years.

Speaker 3 (27:01):
That'd be crazy if he was on this list.

Speaker 2 (27:02):
I feel like, shouldn't he be.

Speaker 1 (27:05):
Yeah, he retired in twenty nineteen, so he should have been.
I think he was last year on this list.

Speaker 4 (27:08):
I guess that's right. Sae didn't make it. Steve Smith
Senior didn't make it. He didn't make it last year.

Speaker 1 (27:14):
All right, this is a dumb question, but that is
that that Chad Johnson is Ocho Senko? Correct, that's cho Senko. Yes,
his legal name, well, well legally.

Speaker 3 (27:26):
Just I thought it changed his name.

Speaker 1 (27:28):
Yeah, didn't we all like, oh, why is this guy
his name Ocho Cinco?

Speaker 3 (27:33):
John Abraham not being a finalist.

Speaker 2 (27:35):
That didn't say Ochosinko did legally change his name so
that he could have it on his jersey because he
got fined for it.

Speaker 3 (27:41):
Yeah, that's right.

Speaker 1 (27:43):
These these defensive backs are so stacked here, Eric Berry,
cam Chancellor, Nick Collins, Nick Collins, if he did not
get hurt by Jonathan Stewart on a hurdle, would have
been in the Hall of Fame first ballot.

Speaker 3 (27:57):
Sante Samuel Sante.

Speaker 1 (27:59):
Samuel's year, Patrick Sartan Senior, Troy Vincent still on here,
Adrian Wilson. Yeah, like you got so many great people
at Earl Thomas. How was Charles Tullman not there? They
literally call it peanut punch for a reason. There's a
move named after him. Most of the time, you know,

(28:20):
some people missed the ball and just hit another pair elsewhere.

Speaker 3 (28:22):
But how many make it in a year seven?

Speaker 1 (28:25):
It's weird. Last year there was four, and you know
it could go as high as like eight. I guess
it's like you have to hit a threshold of like votes.

Speaker 2 (28:33):
Yeah, I think because I think that's because.

Speaker 1 (28:35):
Last year was four.

Speaker 6 (28:36):
We were like the Tory was a finalist. Like it
was like it was a finalist. It was a very
weird class.

Speaker 1 (28:44):
Last year it was Jared Allen and Antonio Gates, Devin
Hester I think was on it. Like it was a
very very weird list.

Speaker 2 (28:51):
Yeah, didn't.

Speaker 3 (28:54):
Yeah, I think they need to change how they do this.

Speaker 1 (28:57):
Now with like now with like this classic, you go
as high as like eight, nine, ten, But like last year,
I think it was like okay, like we have these
guys here. They get headlined up, but they're not like
first ballot guys. Like this year, it's going to be
headlined by If you want to do two quarterbacks with
Drew Brees and Philip Rivers, I mean no, because you.

Speaker 3 (29:13):
Get backlogged so quick.

Speaker 4 (29:15):
So like the fact that you only entered four sucks
and now look at this list, we're like backlogged as hell.

Speaker 3 (29:21):
Like I that's crazy.

Speaker 4 (29:24):
To me that Luke Aigley got there could have been
a first ballot that Tory Holt should be in by
now Adam Van Terry. I mean, there's no reason he
headlines that, like there's he should have made it in.
I don't know, that's that's crazy. I think there should
be a minimum. Four is absurd when you think about
how backlogged this list gets. I mean, you're choosing what

(29:49):
four out of we just looked at one hundred and.

Speaker 1 (29:51):
Well, I think it has to be from like the
votes or whatever. If you hit like a certain amount,
like baseball, and it's I know, it's not going to
be the same as baseball, where it's like, okay, you
need like eighty percent of the votes, and it's like, oh,
if we don't have anyone, there's no Hall of Fame class.
Oh well, just I do like the way baseball because also,
like you have X amount of years to do it.

Speaker 2 (30:07):
There's none of this.

Speaker 1 (30:08):
Like eighty year old eighty year old players making it
in when they passed, when they're even alive, Like you
have this amount of time to make it. If it's not,
you are not considered a Hall of Famer. And that's
what the Hall of very Good is for the Hall
of nice, and that's like Eli Manning, Philip Rivers.

Speaker 2 (30:30):
You know, you're very good players, but you're not Hall
of famers.

Speaker 4 (30:33):
I mean it is also crazy because there's three hundred
and eighty two players in the NFL Hall of Fame,
which sounds like a lot.

Speaker 3 (30:39):
I mean that sounds.

Speaker 1 (30:40):
Rearly not of like there's like a sixteen hundred players
on yes, like sixteen hundred players that are on active rosters.
So it's like you think of it like that.

Speaker 3 (30:52):
I mean this is since this since sixty three, so
we're talking yeah.

Speaker 1 (30:59):
Sixty yeah, sixty two years, and they like overfilled it
for like the hundredth year. They just kept on like
they were like everyone was just getting inducted in there.

Speaker 4 (31:12):
That's a I mean, that's an average of six players
a year, so it really isn't that much.

Speaker 3 (31:18):
I don't know, it's interesting.

Speaker 1 (31:22):
Now. I ask one question here, Okay, I always have
a non sports question because I like to think of it.
And I thought of this while working out this morning
at the ripe time of six fifty am that I
had to type it down, okay, but I didn't type
it down until I got home because I was really
thinking about it. We all had a lot, like we
all had stuff that like, man, I wish I had
this when I was a kid, Like this would be

(31:43):
like so freaking cool, like all that stuff. What's the
one thing that you have now that you wish your
younger self had?

Speaker 2 (31:52):
Jeez?

Speaker 1 (31:53):
Time Wait now, the time was so prominent back then,
It's like, okay, I could game all day. It's like, oh, hey,
two hours past, I played all this stuff. I have
one and it's really good and it would relate to
us as like twelve year olds. Faster Internet. I remember
having that, like downloading the very the Last World at
War mat pack with the de Rece map and like

(32:15):
all that stuff. That shit took a day and a
half to download and it was one point six gigs.
I literally went to bed and I woke up and
it was at seven percent. I was like, what's going on?

Speaker 3 (32:27):
A disappointing thing as a child, bro, that's wrong.

Speaker 1 (32:31):
But then I mean like, hey, physical physical stuff was
so cool, like going the Target or your local best
buyer Walmart get in a game like that was just
like the hype there. That was the one thing my
twelve year old self wishes they had.

Speaker 3 (32:50):
I don't know.

Speaker 4 (32:52):
That's a that's actually a great question. This is a
great question confidence conference. That's you know, that's pretty valid,
to be honest, riz, Riz, I still don't have that
I had the confidence I had now way earlier. Yeah,
life would be different, way different. I don't dude, that's

(33:15):
kind of that's a crazy question.

Speaker 1 (33:17):
I really don't know.

Speaker 3 (33:19):
As far as objects go. I don't know if there's anything.

Speaker 2 (33:22):
Yeah, yeah, I don't really care about material things.

Speaker 3 (33:25):
I don't know if there's anything.

Speaker 4 (33:28):
But there's some knowledge things, maybe experience that would have
been cool, I don't know.

Speaker 1 (33:35):
Instead of learning about since when I was twelve, instead
of learning about the microchondria, you know, you invested bitcoin.

Speaker 2 (33:43):
Yeah, there you go when we were twelve. I think
it was two thousand and eight. So yeah, it's pretty
buying a house.

Speaker 1 (33:51):
Yeah, my fall for you know, trying to remember my
middle school locker code instead of just having it preset
to where I just have to turn it the littlest
bit and it just opens up and I can just
go in there.

Speaker 3 (34:02):
You know, that's still crazy to think about. I brought
this up to my girlfriend the other day.

Speaker 4 (34:07):
It's still crazy to think about at least for us
could grow into the same school. This is so off track,
but I'm just gonna bring it up, because why not
We had to buy locks to the lockers in middle school,
and now I think back to that, it's weird.

Speaker 1 (34:22):
I think it's weird, like the lockers.

Speaker 4 (34:26):
All right, sorry, not middle school to like, uh, to
your gym lockers like you're just required.

Speaker 1 (34:31):
I had to do that in middle school too. No,
you know, no, no, no where I went to middle
school because like we didn't go to the same middle school.
They actually say like here, if you want to lock,
you could get a lock, but if you have your own,
you have your own, you can do that. So they
had like all these locks and all that stuff. But
I want to figure out how they ended up having
to reset all these combinations every single year. Remember, okay,

(34:53):
it's like whatever this like three digit combination is for
like this having to go through that?

Speaker 3 (34:58):
You really do that, right?

Speaker 1 (35:00):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (35:01):
I didn't need.

Speaker 4 (35:03):
Did you guys ever try to open your locker from
previous years?

Speaker 1 (35:07):
No?

Speaker 2 (35:07):
I couldn't remember the combo.

Speaker 1 (35:09):
Yeah.

Speaker 7 (35:09):
So, actually, now that I think about it, I remember
just recently I even tried to h I tried to
remember like, okay, let me go through like my freshman
year class, where did I have to go from like
five hall?

Speaker 1 (35:21):
I had to go like eight hall two? And I
was like trying to be like okay, let me try
figuring out if I could remember the steps of me
having to go around like high school.

Speaker 4 (35:29):
Like I'm thinking, do they reset each lock of every
locker every year?

Speaker 3 (35:33):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (35:34):
Definitely, definitely every year for.

Speaker 3 (35:37):
That specific locker.

Speaker 4 (35:38):
So like you go back to your freshman locker and
just open it, and I feel like.

Speaker 1 (35:42):
That's like a custodial work thing that they would do
like over the summer to like fi a lot of work.

Speaker 2 (35:47):
Well, my one locker junior year, all you to do
is just hit it and it would open.

Speaker 1 (35:51):
The lock never worked, I remember.

Speaker 3 (35:56):
I remember.

Speaker 1 (35:58):
I don't know if I ever told the story my
senior year. My girlfriend at the time, you guys know
who the name is. I like just like she like
opened up her locker and I just locked it and
it was never able to close again, like the custodians
could have do like like just so it's broken the
entire year. That was like September, dud, good job, that's fair.
I know. You talk to your friends after and it's

(36:20):
like sometimes you're like, oh, let me just dick with them.
He has the locker open and just lock and you
like walk away like okay, yep, see you later. Now
you just go through like redoing the combination, have the closet.

Speaker 4 (36:31):
Or I'd make little marks on my thing so I
know where these numbers were.

Speaker 2 (36:35):
And then I just you know, I thought of that.

Speaker 5 (36:38):
Like take a little highlight or a little sharper or
something that's colored and just make little.

Speaker 3 (36:45):
I don't care, like what are they gonna steal my
text book?

Speaker 1 (36:49):
Oh dude?

Speaker 3 (36:50):
Rough, Like I don't whatever.

Speaker 1 (36:53):
My lunch, my brown paper bag lunch. Yeah not when
I started on that, man, there's no fantasy questions, so
we could just go right on ahead here. Hell yeah,
alrighty Game of the Week. There was that one o'clock hour. Man,
I don't know, there was a lot of crack involved

(37:15):
in that. That was like a great one o'clock hour, mam.

Speaker 3 (37:20):
Absolutely chaos.

Speaker 1 (37:21):
I wonder if Scott Hanson another phenomenal outing for the
red zone.

Speaker 2 (37:27):
That half hour of just blocked kicks.

Speaker 4 (37:31):
Come back wins, Like, yeah, that was a good That
was a witching hour.

Speaker 1 (37:36):
I liked the late window too. I really enjoyed it.
The Niners went down to the wire, the Broncos and
Charges went down to the wire. I don't even know
what the other games were.

Speaker 2 (37:44):
Of football we've ever seen. Like there's been like almost
no duds of a game.

Speaker 1 (37:49):
I mean that's for this year.

Speaker 3 (37:50):
Yeah, I mean there have like there's there's.

Speaker 1 (37:54):
Obviously games, but it's like, okay, yeah, but I can
remember like all these other games that were like way
better than that game.

Speaker 2 (37:59):
But of like the four o'clock and night windows, like.

Speaker 3 (38:02):
No, it's the night windows. It's the night windows.

Speaker 4 (38:05):
The night games have been good so that now it's
bridging all those gaps between the because there's always good
games in the one o'clock's at four o'clock pretty much,
but the night games are bridging all those gaps that
usually suck. So I think that, you know, mentally, we're like,
because like this is a good start.

Speaker 2 (38:22):
This is like the.

Speaker 1 (38:23):
First year in a while where I've each week have
actually like rolled from one to the other every every.

Speaker 4 (38:29):
Time and been sighted and like enjoyed watching and watched
the night game to like the end, like constantly.

Speaker 1 (38:35):
Now, like I've watched even like the Thursdays too, like
it's just like it's good.

Speaker 4 (38:40):
Yeah, honestly, I mean this Thursday was eh, but you
set it up with the two teams that you had
in there.

Speaker 1 (38:47):
But but yeah, what were you guys? Game of the week.
You have to pick one, uh, unless if you want
me to go first, I'll go first. They got always
take a longing fruit. Here you go for it, alrighty
Lions and Ravens. Yeah, there was Dave Montgomery's you know,

(39:09):
big breakout game for twenty twenty five. Jamior Gibb still
looks really good. The Lions just really looked unstoppable. And
Lamar Jackson now is a losing streak against NFC teams.
He's now two in the hole with the Eagles and
the Lions now, so I don't know trouble's brewing. Lamar
is putting up some really good numbers. He's number one
a lot of passing statistics, and everyone else you know

(39:31):
that's you know, had the same exact ones all three
and zero, Lamar one and two.

Speaker 4 (39:37):
I'm actually curious what his record is when they are
a national game, including like playoffs, including all the time.

Speaker 1 (39:46):
Know, the Lions are now ten and one under the
waning Gibbis moon I sent that on Thursday. I said, man,
I should really change my pick.

Speaker 4 (39:56):
I don't know what it is because this whole whatever
this is doesn't follow any other team ever, it's just
the lines. So it's it's maybe just because everyone likes
when the Lions win right now, So you know, the Lions.

Speaker 1 (40:10):
Are just like maybe the most likable team in the league.

Speaker 2 (40:14):
Yes, because they were terrible.

Speaker 3 (40:16):
Yeah, because it's fun too, it's fresh.

Speaker 2 (40:18):
And also because their coach is awesome.

Speaker 3 (40:21):
Yeah, the vibes are so high it's insane. So how
could you not like if.

Speaker 2 (40:25):
You don't like Dan Campbell, I don't like you and
you don't like football.

Speaker 1 (40:27):
Yeah, like going back to like the pat the pitching
play that they gave to like a monro and like
fourth down they pitched it away. Like when Campbell was
on the Cowboys in two thousand and three. They did
that exact thing with you know, EMMITTT. Smith twenty nineteen
when he was one of like the coordinator people for
the Saints. They did it with Taysom Hill. Now it's
Jamier Gibbs. Maybe Ben Johnson was in the system. Maybe

(40:54):
it's just Dan Campbell being behind you know, Hall of
Fame greats and just being a part of all these teams.

Speaker 4 (41:03):
I mean, the other game of the week I would
say is his Bucks Jets. You know that was you
got to watch that exciting ending Eagles round, all right.

Speaker 1 (41:11):
I was gonna go Bucks Jets, so I didn't go Eagles.
But I guess you're leaving me that one.

Speaker 3 (41:15):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (41:16):
He's gonna name them all and you gonna have to say, yeah,
I really like the Panthers and Falcons that that was
my favorite game of the entire week.

Speaker 2 (41:23):
He's just gonna run right, you know, I really like.

Speaker 1 (41:28):
The Falcons of Bengals. It made me feel like the
Bengals had a chance and you know in the fourth
quarter when you know they scored the first touchdown.

Speaker 3 (41:34):
Yeah, yeah, that's what I was.

Speaker 1 (41:37):
Sorry, I'm gonna do that later with by so Hold.
I like seven things reach Dom's not. Dom's gonna have
to like sell on like I don't know moon phases.

Speaker 2 (41:48):
You know what I'm selling moon faces. That's what he
did to me the other.

Speaker 3 (41:52):
Other week with the Chargers on the Moon.

Speaker 2 (41:57):
Like I said it, I'm doing it, and like he
starts off like I'm gonna buy the Charges.

Speaker 3 (42:02):
And it was that one really wasn't on purposely there.

Speaker 1 (42:07):
But hey, let's go into a buy, sell and hold, gentlemen,
where are we going to go with our byes? Bye
bye bye, sell, sell sell. I would say the other word,
but you know it's not gonna flow really well. I
don't know if you guys would understand the reference.

Speaker 2 (42:21):
Yeah, just do the opposite of it.

Speaker 1 (42:24):
There is no opposite.

Speaker 2 (42:28):
Don could start it because.

Speaker 1 (42:31):
He's gonna buy everything, so you can't buy anything anymore.

Speaker 4 (42:34):
You can start with your vibe because I wrote another
one down, so you can go, okay. Well, this is
why I can't even differ from what Jake said, just
because I held them week one, so I have to
make a decision on my holdes, like I have to
start making decisions here. So I'm gonna buy Detroit. That
was everything I needed last week. This week, everything we

(42:54):
were hoping Detroit was again. Week one was a little
bit sketchy. So that's why I held them. Detroit's back.
We're happy all as well.

Speaker 3 (43:03):
Bought the Troit.

Speaker 2 (43:04):
Yeah, I wrote down Detroit. They are going to be there,
are looking like the one seed caliber team. But the
other thing I wrote down because I knew he was
gonna do it. Special teams, spec teams all season has
been a weapon. It's kind of true, like all the
block kicks this week.

Speaker 1 (43:23):
The I think it's due to the new like way
they can like work in the kicker ball, but like
the sixty yard kicks, And did anybody else catch the
the Rams kicker what he was doing every single kickoff
that like knuckleball.

Speaker 2 (43:40):
I don't know. Yeah, he was kicking these like wobblers
that were like getting caught in the wind. And we
didn't feel the single one clean the entire day. We
were starting at like the five and ten yard line
every drive.

Speaker 4 (43:54):
Well, kickers really got to figure it out, like they've
been having some trouble figuring out how they want to
kick the ball, how deep they want to kick it,
where they want to put it.

Speaker 2 (44:02):
They're trying to like land it in the landing zone.
But but they don't get that.

Speaker 1 (44:05):
Running start like they used to. Like last year they
had like the same like ten yards. Now it's like
they're like three yards and they gotta kick it, like you.

Speaker 4 (44:12):
Gotta figure it out. It's a new new for kickers
more than anyone else really, like.

Speaker 2 (44:16):
Go look up if you are on a side screen
of one. You guys like the cardis kickoffs wild. It's
like doing this all.

Speaker 1 (44:25):
Over the place.

Speaker 3 (44:26):
That's interesting.

Speaker 1 (44:27):
We fumbled every single one and fumbled, but like bobbled
every single one.

Speaker 3 (44:32):
That is really interesting. That might be a move.

Speaker 4 (44:34):
That might have to be a move for kickers. I mean,
it's been interesting, the new kick and rule.

Speaker 3 (44:41):
I think special team.

Speaker 2 (44:43):
Is a weapon now.

Speaker 1 (44:43):
I like it. It's fun, it's exciting.

Speaker 4 (44:46):
Yeah, that's cool again, dude, this brand of football this
year has been more exciting. I don't know, it doesn't
feel stale at all.

Speaker 3 (44:55):
We're in it.

Speaker 1 (44:57):
Well, uh my b I I don't even know if
he mentioned the Lions, but I'm just gonna buy in
the Lions. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (45:06):
So sweep, sweep Lions sweep.

Speaker 1 (45:10):
Uh yeah. Shall we move on to cells? Do you
guys want to sell on anything?

Speaker 2 (45:14):
I got a lot of things to sell first.

Speaker 3 (45:17):
Okay, he's gonna cover mine. I know that, So who
would me? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (45:23):
Uh?

Speaker 2 (45:23):
Well one just I already said the Giants are just dumb.

Speaker 3 (45:27):
Right away.

Speaker 2 (45:29):
The Dallas defense is the worst I've ever seen. Like
they're just making everybody look like Hall of famers.

Speaker 1 (45:35):
At quarterback, Matt Eberflus. I don't know what the hell
is going on there.

Speaker 2 (45:39):
Defense mastermind. There was a possibility they could have been
better without without Michael Parsons and Nels stop the run,
but that hasn't happened either, so they're screwed. That's he
like everybody's going to have a career day against the
Cowboys this season.

Speaker 3 (45:56):
That no dan Quinn thing. Dude.

Speaker 4 (45:58):
I don't know if he's a good head coach, but
he's a good defensive coach. And they ain't doing He
left and that was it. They can't figure it out.
They can't even put together anything.

Speaker 1 (46:07):
But I can't even give Kale credit for that game
because of how bad Like Russell Wilson had a career day,
had a renaissance day versus Dallas defense. So Jordan Love's
gonna put up Aaron Rodgers types that line might be
even better than that game that we saw at the
beat Dubs, that wildcard game.

Speaker 3 (46:27):
I'm starting Golden for that reason.

Speaker 1 (46:28):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (46:29):
And then the final one I have is Michael Panis
saw stat this morning or yesterday? He is winless when
the other team scores seven points.

Speaker 3 (46:40):
That's such a crazy.

Speaker 1 (46:43):
Is that college too?

Speaker 3 (46:45):
No?

Speaker 1 (46:45):
But like in the his NFL, Like he's like, oh,
in six and seven when the other team scores seven points.

Speaker 4 (46:55):
And I don't I don't feel like those games are
that low scoring for the Falcon Cup.

Speaker 3 (46:59):
Maybe they just are man.

Speaker 2 (47:01):
So McCarthy was like had like a normal throwing arm.
They win that game. Apparently he's not just mister handoff.

Speaker 3 (47:12):
What. Yeah, I I sold the Giants.

Speaker 4 (47:19):
The fact that we watched like the worst red zone
possession in our entire lives and not a single ball
was a threat to do anything, like nothing at all
is absurd. I mean, that's that really may be the
single worst red zone possession we have witnessed as football fans.

Speaker 3 (47:41):
So we're done here.

Speaker 2 (47:42):
That's that whole franchise getting sold.

Speaker 3 (47:45):
We're done that. Yeah, it's just it's stupid.

Speaker 1 (47:53):
I'm gonna sell on the Saints. Uh yeah, that was
just an abysmal outing. Another game, you know on Sunday
where just forty points by halftime by the other team.
It was just like, okay, it's like not really competitive
and all that stuff. No, no, we don't know ball guys.
Remember that. Guys like I can't wait from the proven wrong,
I can't wait for seventeen to be like, I want

(48:14):
to know what you're having and please send it to me. Yeah,
I love that. I would love whatever stuff you're you
know you're.

Speaker 2 (48:21):
I'm gonna sell that guy.

Speaker 4 (48:22):
Who is who's the what's the team that gave us
like the entire rundown on how their team could I'm.

Speaker 1 (48:29):
Pretty sure it was the Saints. It was the one guy.
He broke it all down. It was really cool. It's
really nice. And this other guy's like, you're a dumb ass,
fucking idiot, Like, you know, you guys don't know ball
Kellum Moore. You guys just don't like Brandon Stale. He's
gonna bring us everything, yeah, brand stay defense, Yeah dude,
and uh for my fiance and Domb's girlfriend. I'm gonna
sell the show nine to one one because I don't

(48:50):
know the realism of going to space. But those memes
are hilarious. Okay, I love those memes.

Speaker 4 (48:57):
Ude, No listen, Jake, just to like some groundwork here, huh,
just like the groundwork. They watched the show nine to
one one, right, which, yeah.

Speaker 1 (49:07):
Takes place in California. You know they did about like
b Nato and all sorts of.

Speaker 4 (49:13):
Some weird stuff whatever, right, and then they killed off
a guy at the end of last season and blamed
like everyone's favorite dude, and then they blamed it like
their explanation was realism. And then so the trailer for
this season comes out and it's like.

Speaker 1 (49:30):
A meteor shower and like they're gonna.

Speaker 3 (49:34):
On l A and the one dude's like they cover
like and it's just like, what are we doing?

Speaker 4 (49:44):
The l a p D Is gonna stop the media
shower with And now a new trailer came out last night.

Speaker 3 (49:50):
Force Dude. A new trailer came out last night and
they're going to spins.

Speaker 1 (49:54):
What is it?

Speaker 3 (49:55):
Astronauts, no military, No, the l a p D.

Speaker 2 (50:00):
The acts, the actual new branches of the military that's
called space.

Speaker 3 (50:03):
Force dude, Like, no, it's it's something, is what it is.

Speaker 1 (50:10):
I was like dumbfounded, and then like domb like have
you seen that? I'm like, yeah, this looks stupid. But
now I just found memes and I just send them
the dumb because they're so funny memes.

Speaker 5 (50:21):
Like the trailer came out and it is on real
I gotta, I gotta just is this it?

Speaker 3 (50:29):
Yeah, I'm just.

Speaker 4 (50:30):
Gonna show you even without sound, why look at this Ready,
ready watch this?

Speaker 3 (50:40):
Oh did they not shoot? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (50:46):
There doesn't need to be any more cop and no,
there's almose.

Speaker 1 (50:52):
People that are gonna watch it too. It's just like,
so people are gonna watch these just watched the reruns
from two thousand and six of all those shows. They're
not going to space what's going on with that?

Speaker 3 (51:02):
Because now because of the names, I kind of want
to know what the hell happens here. So I don't know.

Speaker 1 (51:09):
Maybe you're gonna have their highest viewership spike in like
history holds before we get So we're so far off track,
let's just go to hold? What are we hold?

Speaker 2 (51:18):
Tasting shows?

Speaker 3 (51:20):
I'm I can't.

Speaker 5 (51:21):
I don't know if I'm allowed to agree with that,
but you can. That's so funny, I'll say to her tomorrow.
All right, So, uh holds yet?

Speaker 3 (51:35):
Well did you sell? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (51:37):
We don't know. That's why. That's why we went on
a whole tangent here holds hold.

Speaker 3 (51:41):
I'm gonna hold.

Speaker 4 (51:42):
I'm gonna hold the Jags because they're doing more than
they should be, I think, So we'll see how that
goes going forward.

Speaker 3 (51:52):
And I'm gonna hold Seattle.

Speaker 4 (51:53):
I need one more week against I need a real
opponent game and uh, and to see if they are
more real than a lot of people I've saying. I
was kind of a little bit on Seattle going into
the season already, but like both, you know, we'll see.
As long as they keep Kenneth Walker running the ball,
I'll be happy. Because the split kind of annoys me

(52:17):
as a fantasy owner and as a fan.

Speaker 1 (52:19):
But you know, so there's been a very concerning trend
the last couple of years, so I should have either
done a hold or sell long before this. But is
John Harball a bad coach? Has he lost it? John
Ravens John won because he's laying himself squarely on the

(52:44):
whole list right now. He's going through that Andy Reid
phase with Philly. He's just kind of gone stalius to
go somewhere else to rediscover himself.

Speaker 3 (52:54):
He's the longest tenured coach by far right.

Speaker 1 (52:57):
For a single team right now. Yeah, those two thousand
and nine to twenty twelve Andy teams were.

Speaker 2 (53:06):
But I am also gonna hold Jordan Love because if
the Packers are gonna do what the Packers want to do,
Jordan Love actually has to show something. Like everyone tells me.

Speaker 1 (53:18):
How great he is, but he has not He does
not actually done anything yet. He has all these bad
like if Jalen Hurts is their quarterback, they win that game.
He doesn't have that stum turnover.

Speaker 4 (53:33):
Sorry, John Harbot is not the longest tended courage.

Speaker 3 (53:37):
Because Mike Tomlin's still the coach.

Speaker 1 (53:39):
Well, I don't even need to mention him. He should
have been sold. He was sold years ago.

Speaker 3 (53:43):
I just forgot that.

Speaker 4 (53:44):
I forgot that Mike Toumblin still exists just because he's
so But okay, sorry, No, I think.

Speaker 2 (53:51):
If there was an actual top ten quarterback on the Packers,
they win that game. I don't care about at the
old lot. You just don't throw that pick, you win
the game.

Speaker 1 (54:00):
But that's also the one guy he came out and
was like, oh I think we could go undefeated this year,
like he like put it into the air. So it
just became like a sudden like trap game.

Speaker 2 (54:07):
He doesn't. It was a lot of them. It was
Jacob's Parsons, like more than one of them, said belcoing
Owen or sixteen and l.

Speaker 3 (54:17):
Seventeen.

Speaker 2 (54:18):
Oh whatever, I'm dude, I'm not adapted to.

Speaker 3 (54:21):
The new No, no, I never will.

Speaker 1 (54:27):
Uh my holds this week after selling him last week.
I'm gonna put him back into the hold. I'm gonna
do o'murray and Hampton back into the hold. There.

Speaker 2 (54:34):
Oh, here we go.

Speaker 1 (54:36):
I saw that coming. Snip snap, snip snap, and I'm
gonna hold Rock Bowers because I don't know what's going
on here. It was the best tight end in football
last year, and I don't know what's going on here.
A game where like he probably should have gone off
and Trey Tucker gets you know, Randy Moss Thanksgiving type stuff.

Speaker 2 (54:55):
I can tell you the answer.

Speaker 1 (54:57):
Gino Smith's cool, I'm not Nope, No, not taking slander. Nope,
I'm not doing it.

Speaker 2 (55:02):
Gino has been bad, dude, Gino has been real bad.

Speaker 3 (55:04):
Yeah, but you know what, maybe not isn't.

Speaker 4 (55:06):
He He's not top five in yards?

Speaker 3 (55:11):
Right?

Speaker 1 (55:12):
He might be top five in yards?

Speaker 3 (55:14):
I mean so some of them got I think he's.

Speaker 1 (55:16):
Like number two one yards, Like he has a lot
of yards, but like he obviously doesn't have everything else
backed up with it.

Speaker 3 (55:21):
Yeah, I don't.

Speaker 1 (55:22):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (55:24):
Four touchdowns, four picks.

Speaker 3 (55:26):
Yeah, No, he's not been as good as I was
hoping he would be.

Speaker 2 (55:30):
And it's not like they in twelve sacks.

Speaker 3 (55:32):
It's not like they're lacking in well offensive line.

Speaker 1 (55:35):
Well, they also took you know, gent who has one
hundred and forty five yards after contact and he only
has one hundred and forty four yards rushing.

Speaker 2 (55:42):
Well, I saw the one about Chase Brown.

Speaker 1 (55:45):
Yeah, negative, HEAs Brown is horrible issue. But Joe Burrow
he's nothing. Well Simon, Well, well, Joe Burrow, it helps,
it helps so much.

Speaker 3 (55:54):
Yeah, it does help. But oh, line man, that was.

Speaker 2 (55:56):
Another team I wanted to sell the Bengals. They're done.

Speaker 3 (55:58):
Yeah, I thought about selling them. I did, I really,
But here we go.

Speaker 1 (56:05):
Here's our records after three weeks, forty eight games down. Uh,
Jake took home the cake here at ten and six,
while the other three of us finished nine and seven.
Last week, Dom with his big week, just decided to,
I don't know, fall flat on his face.

Speaker 3 (56:19):
How you like that?

Speaker 4 (56:20):
Buffalo game saved me a little bit. Still remained a
cushion small, but still remained a cushion.

Speaker 1 (56:27):
But here's our records. I'm thirty and eighteen, Colton twenty
nine nineteen, Jacobs thirty three fifty five, and Dom is
thirty five and thirteen through the first three weeks. It
can only go worse from here. Yep, Thursday Night football,
the Arizona Carnals will were in their rival jerseys that
Nike he's been pushing out. It looks like burrito but

(56:49):
they look like the best ones out of everyone in
the league. They are hosting the Seattle Seahawks, who are
coming off a very dominant win against the New Orleans Saints.
We're all sweeping the Seattle Seahawks here from Thursday night
foot we'll be going to nine point thirty in the
morning in Dublin, Ireland, where the Steelers are hosting a
home game against the Minnesota Vikings. And dom uh, you

(57:13):
have not typed in your pick here? Where are you
going here?

Speaker 3 (57:18):
With Carson, it's a sweep of the ginger Man.

Speaker 1 (57:21):
He's returns to Scotland, Ireland. Now he returns to Ireland
where they all are from all the Irish fools gold,
We're all there. Then at the actual early window slate
oft the one o'clock hour, the Commanders, after a very
big winnigans the Raiders last week, are hosting the Falcons,
who got you know, swept out by the Carolina Panthers.

Speaker 4 (57:44):
Here.

Speaker 1 (57:45):
I am that lone wolf in the Atlanta Falcons as
dom is, you know, changing everything up here.

Speaker 4 (57:49):
I'm not doing that thing. I don't know why we're
at that in the beginning. Anyway, that's crazy Washington.

Speaker 1 (57:57):
The Commies. They all going to the Commies here. The
Saints speaking to the NFC set. The Saints are traveling
coast to coast here after the West Coast last week.
They are going to Orchard Park to play the Bills
this weekend. We're all sweeping the Bills on this one.
Then for Mortard Park, we're gonna go to Detroit, where
the Cleveland Brown's coming off a very big upset win
this season, are going to uh play the Lions here.

(58:19):
We're all sweeping Detroit on this selection. Someone has to
win here or they can tie. I mean, what's worse
that could happen here? The o w and three Titans
and the Owen three Texans are gonna be battling it out,
and we're all picking the Texans. Is this a trap
game or the Titans gonna pull it off?

Speaker 2 (58:37):
If Houston loses, my hold of Stroud is going straight
in the cell.

Speaker 4 (58:43):
I wonder if Joe Mixon makes that much of a
difference for the Texans too as well.

Speaker 2 (58:47):
Like it's Woody Mark season.

Speaker 3 (58:49):
What I don't care.

Speaker 4 (58:51):
Oh no, Stroud needs to be way better, like a
billion But I'm saying I wonder if, like some of
these games would be a little bit less tight if
Joe Mixon was in the lineup. It is kind of
interesting to me. He comes back in what two weeks?
Maybe hard?

Speaker 1 (59:05):
I mean, the GM talked at the end of August.
They said they he wasn't confident that he will play
the season, So like, who knows if he's going to
be playing.

Speaker 4 (59:12):
He's projected right now to come back in two weeks.

Speaker 1 (59:14):
He hasn't even step foot on the field, so I
don't even know if he can.

Speaker 3 (59:18):
I don't know.

Speaker 4 (59:19):
That's like I said, that's a hard maybe, but I
don't know if that team even gets better.

Speaker 1 (59:25):
So the battle of one to two teams. The Panthers,
coming off their big win of the season against the
Falcons last week, go into Foxborough where the Patriots that
we're having some fumbling issues going on, but we're all
picking the New England Patriots on this one. From Foxboro,
we go to the Indian Barrel Ground that we talked
about In the beginning of the show, the Chargers come
into town to play rookie Jackson Dart who's making his

(59:46):
first career start in the NFL, and we're all sweeping
here the Chargers a rematch again, the Eagles almost calling
the Falcon because the Eagles are gonna be going down
south to play the Buccaneers the Battle of three and
oh was one team is gonna be undefeated after this

(01:00:07):
or if they're tied, they're gonna be half defeated after Uh, Jakie,
do you not have a pick in here for this?
You had it earlier and then I guess you took
it out.

Speaker 2 (01:00:15):
You can say who I originally had. It's okay you had.

Speaker 1 (01:00:17):
You had the Bucks? There he had the Bucks. Are
you staying with the Bucks?

Speaker 2 (01:00:22):
I fear no, man, But that thing that scares me. Uh,
it's just gonna suck if I lose the week because
I don't pick my team. That's just That's what I'm
feeling right now.

Speaker 3 (01:00:34):
Yeah, after that, you.

Speaker 1 (01:00:35):
Could always be a Jets fan. Doesn't matter because your
team's always gonna lose every week.

Speaker 3 (01:00:41):
Like I don't know, maybe not this week, man.

Speaker 1 (01:00:44):
Like the few times where I like I will always
pick my team, and as few times where I don't,
it's like always ends up biting me.

Speaker 2 (01:00:53):
I'm going, I'm I'm I can't. I can't. No, I can't.
I can't pick against my kid. I can't.

Speaker 1 (01:00:58):
Colon and Jake take the Birds, and Dom and I
are taking the Pirates of the Caribbean.

Speaker 2 (01:01:05):
I'm ready to get hurt again.

Speaker 1 (01:01:09):
As behead to the four o'clock hour. Here, the Rams
come home after a East coat well Central time zone
an Eastern time zone trip. They are hosting the Indianapolis
Colts here and Dom and I are taking the Colts,
and Colton and Jake are taking the Rams.

Speaker 3 (01:01:22):
Man, I think this is gonna be a good game.

Speaker 1 (01:01:23):
This is a true contest for the Colts here. I mean,
the Broncos were a true contest, but this one is
a very you know, it's there for them.

Speaker 2 (01:01:33):
If the If the Colts win this game, I'll believe
it's fair.

Speaker 1 (01:01:37):
I held them last week, so I'm gonna still you know,
I'm not holding them again, but I just want to,
you know, figure it all out here.

Speaker 3 (01:01:43):
Who goes like top receiver in the league.

Speaker 2 (01:01:46):
He is because they literally throw to him every play.

Speaker 1 (01:01:50):
The Jaguars go to Santa Clair the play the San
Francisco forty nine Ers. Here, we're all sweeping the forty
nine ers on the selection.

Speaker 4 (01:01:58):
I think there's a trap game for the trap yet
so hard.

Speaker 1 (01:02:05):
One team needs to win this or the other team's
gonna go one and three. The Ravens are going to
Arrowhead Stadium after a very bad showing again on Monday
Night Football. They were playing the Chiefs, who are coming
off their very first win of the season. Uh yeah,
Dominic Colton are taking the Ravens and Jake and I
are taking the Chiefs. As we head to Vegas on

(01:02:30):
this one, the Bears come to town after a very
dominant win against the Dallas Cowboys. They're playing the Raiders
in Las Vegas, and I am lone wolfing the last
Vegas Raiders on this selection. I'm not surprised. Sunday Night Football,
the Green Bay Packers Michael Parsons returns to Dallas. As

(01:02:50):
he said, it's gonna be a hert for woe when
he sacks u Dak Prescott in Dallas. Here, we're all
taking the Green Bay Packers on this selection.

Speaker 2 (01:03:00):
You couldn't pay me to pick up the Cowboys this point.

Speaker 1 (01:03:05):
So for some reason, this is a seven o'clock game
on ESPN, the New York Jets and the Miami Dolphins,
a game that you know no one wants to watch,
but you know everyone will be happy that there will
be a loser of this game. Uh, Colon and I
are taking the Dolphins and Domin Jak are taking the Jets.

Speaker 2 (01:03:23):
I feel zero about this game. Yeah, well the game
even happening, just just cancel it.

Speaker 3 (01:03:30):
Well, if you don't that, be excited about the other one.

Speaker 1 (01:03:33):
If you're not excited about this game at seven o'clock.
At eight fifteen, the Bengals and Broncos kickoff. So if
you want, if you have a good book, maybe you
should read that on Monday night. I don't know. Probably
Tom Brady I think dropped a new book too, so
maybe you could get that, get your hands on that,
read that. But the Bengals and the Broncos, we're all
sweeping in the Broncos on this one.

Speaker 3 (01:03:52):
Nice. What a Monday, What a slate? This could this
could break the streak.

Speaker 1 (01:03:57):
I'm gonna go I'm gonna go to bed at nine thirty,
gonna be really excited about that Jets game. Is gonna
be done by like eight thirty. Nothing but runs and
punts both ways. But if you like that, you can
