00:03:39
Speaker
Gets us out to more people, so we really appreciate it. that like button for us. All right. Cool. Well. The Thursday night game, thirty seven to ten Chargers over the Vikings. This is ah was a blowout, and to be honest, Clubber D, and we're going to get into this, ah pretty much all of the weekend's games were blowouts. So let's go ahead and actually look, we got a ah we got a question, and actually I like this question better.
00:04:06
Speaker
We'll get right to the Thursday night game, but first let's... Tom's
UFC 321 Eye Poke Incident Discussion
00:04:10
Speaker
eye poke last night at UFC 321 ruined what was turning out to be an okay first round in the main event. Celebrity, that brings me to a question.
00:04:20
Speaker
What was the better fight this weekend, even though we didn't get that main event? This or the boxing?
00:04:25
Speaker
100% was Fabio Worley versus um josh Joseph Parker. I'm going to take the glasses off. That means are serious. That means serious business coming. That was a very good fight. I mean,
00:04:39
Speaker
Wardley, his style, he likes to get it. if If he gets hit, he's not gonna he's not his's his his instinct is to punch back. He's always going to punch but pun back out of trouble. um and I thought the stoppage Yeah, because, you know, after it happened, Worley laid down. I know if he was probably butt tired, but I kind of want let ah Parker go on a little longer, but that stoppage.
00:05:00
Speaker
um And, you know, Worley, he's going to go against Usyk next, so that's going to good heavyweight fight. So I am all the way in on Fabio Worley fighting out of England. and rockco Wow. Wow, that was terrible. I was reckless.
00:05:16
Speaker
I blame that on the meds. But I will say this, though, that eye poke. See, this is the issue where I don't like with the eye poke. You got everybody wanted to see Aspinall fight Jon Jones. And I saw all the memes saying, you know, if you fought Jon Jones, he'd get the same thing.
00:05:33
Speaker
But this man got poked in the eye twice. Bam, just like that. Double poke, yeah. And the knuckle damn there on the other one. And people are saying, oh, k jail said he should have kept on fighting and things like that. he's fighting a killer. He's fighting Serio Ghan.
00:05:46
Speaker
Yes, he didn't like track against John Jones, but I mean, he's a kickboxer. He will knock the race off your face. So, would you want to go against somebody like that when you're vision impaired? Yes, he got bloodied. ah asbo first trump but I mean, it's it's it's very anti-climatic the way that happened, but, you know, that just opens the door for the fight that everybody really wants to see for ah the White House car, which is Alex Herrera going against John Jones. They always trade him.
00:06:14
Speaker
Fourth. Yeah, let's do it. So that kind of opens the door for that fight. I don't know when they're going to rematch them, but I would say that just opens the door for Jon Jones, Alex Brayard, for that super mega fight to happen at the White House in June.
00:06:29
Speaker
Yeah, definitely looking forward to that card. That's going to be crazy what what they come up with for that that that mega event. So, yeah, we'll see what happens there. But, yeah, I'm glad that that fight at least continued all way through. I was sad to see because Sheryl Gahn came out looking you know pretty decent in that first round. So it was looking like was going to shape up to be a decent fight. So it's too bad that it got ended like that. But, um yeah, you can't blame like you said, you can't blame someone who took double poke to the eye, like all up in the eye, like just โ and then expect him to try to continue on. What if he has double vision, and he can't see the man's punches coming at him? Nah, man. Fuck that.
00:07:06
Speaker
You got time for that. Well, the common sense is two different things, and everyone everyone's like, oh, be a warrior, be a warrior, man. You be a warrior, okay? you're going to be calling out when y'all spraying your toenail. You know what I'm saying?
00:07:20
Speaker
Hopscuffing to work, so hush off. First one to make Tom bleed, so there you go. Yeah. All right, cool. Well, let's get back into this ah football. We were getting just into the the Chargers and Vikings, 37-10 Chargers over the Vikings. and now as I was about to say, this really portrayed a whole week of um of blowouts.
00:07:43
Speaker
And a whole bunch of games that was no contest except ah one of them, which we'll get to in just a second. But let's start off with this, a foretelling of things to come.
00:07:54
Speaker
Again, the Chargers, you know, they needed to make sure that they took care of business here. And if Peach were here, I wanted to ask him about... his theory on J.J. McCarthy because they can't keep hiding him if that's what the he thinks they're doing ah with with Carson Wentz playing at this horrible level. So what did you think about this game?
00:08:14
Speaker
Yeah, i actually like that theory. um ah J.J. might not be it, might not be ready. Carson Wentz, I mean, he shouldn't even play today. He looked terrible. And his can tell his arm was messed up.
00:08:27
Speaker
he looked terrible and his arms you could tell his arm messed up And offensive line, I don't know if they're they're they're betting against him or they don't like him, but they weren't blocking for shit. I mean, I feel bad for him, him going down like that, holding his arm. So Carson Wentz, you know, he is what he is, but I don't really put too much on a quarterback where he doesn't have time to throw the ball.
00:08:47
Speaker
You know, yes, you got Justin Jefferson, one of the best receivers, or not the best receiver, depending on who's quarterback, out there, but he can't get the ball if no one's blocking for the quarterback. um So, yeah.
00:08:58
Speaker
um Something has to me up with McCarthy. I just don't think that ah he's right. I'm going to peach on that one. Hmm. Okay. Yeah. I mean, it's it's either that or the injury is is worse than we thought. One of the two, because something's going on where, yeah, you're keeping him out week after week. And, yeah and, and especially with Wentz looking the way that he has, and especially this past week, which was just horrendous.
00:09:19
Speaker
The chargers, by the way, scored 30 more, 30 points or more for the first time in history and did not punt. How's that? That's crazy. And also Keenan Allen, joined Hall of Famer Antonio Gates as the only players in Chargers history with 11,000 yards.
00:09:36
Speaker
So shout out to Keenan Allen, continuing his good play at a at a as an elder veteran in the league now. Vikings running back Aaron Jones did return from that hamstring injury that kept him out four games.
00:09:48
Speaker
The running game was nonexistent between him and Jordan Mason. Minnesota just could not get off the ground whatsoever. As I mentioned, the Chargers really needed to make sure that they took care of business um to make sure that they keep that lead in that division or at least, you know, try to keep the lead because now that we saw Denver blow out the Cowboys, Denver actually now leads the AMC West, which is crazy.
00:10:15
Speaker
So, yeah, and and again, this is just leads us into the rest of the games that were a bunch of blowouts, but definitely was needed by them to take care of business here.
NFL Blowouts Review
00:10:23
Speaker
Shout out, K-Team. Appreciate you, brother. All love go down as well. your Your Falcons didn't look too good either, buddy.
00:10:29
Speaker
And if if Lamar were here, we'd talk about that game. He's not here, so we're not even going to talk about it. ah ah But, ah yeah, let's move into some of these, ah as we like to call them here, booty juice and blowouts.
00:10:42
Speaker
That was what this week was all about. We told you about the 27-point victory on Thursday night. How about this for more blowouts and booty juice games?
00:10:52
Speaker
Only one game today over the whole slate. was, um or sorry, i two games in the whole slate were less than 14 points in in the in the margin of victory. And that was the Jets' one-point victory over the Bengals and your 49ers' unfortunate loss to the Texans, which was by 11%.
00:11:15
Speaker
So only one game in the whole week was decided by 10 points or less. That is crazy. Just blowouts across the board. So this is what I'm going to do, Clubber D, because we're going talk about all these. We do want to talk about a couple of them that we talked about backstage.
00:11:29
Speaker
But I'm just going to throw but throw out the ones we didn't necessarily talk about that we were going to talk about. And if you have any opinion on any of these games, you just stop me and go ahead. So let's start with Lamar, who he's not going to show up and take his medicine. thirty four to ten blowout.
00:11:43
Speaker
By the Dolphins. Jeez, Louisville. Patriots, 32-13 over the Browns. Eagles, 38-20 over the Giants. Got a bone to pick with that game.
00:11:56
Speaker
but Hold on, hold on. I got a bone to pick with that game because leave yeah I picked them in my survival pool on that Thursday night game and they lost against the Giants. And now they act like they want to throw the ball. And I'm sorry, not throw the ball, run the ball with Saquon.
00:12:07
Speaker
Get the hell out of here, Eagles. I'm sick y'all. Get out of here. And I say medical say at the end game who got saved by this game, I guess. So it's like it's a weapon's luck to have this happen and, you know, not fire the coach, but whatever.
00:12:24
Speaker
No, you're right about that. i really He was on the hot seat, and this has taken it off of him for a week. But again, ah they the Falcons aren't a great team either. So even if he can hold them off for one game, that doesn't mean that they're necessarily going to be the old Miami Dolphins of old.
00:12:41
Speaker
so And one thing I do want to shout out, Miles Garrett. Five sacks today, just proving that he is the best pass rusher in the league, hands down. Wow.
00:12:53
Speaker
That was a great performance by him. ah Back to the blocks. The Bills completely romped. The Panthers 40-9. The Ravens coming back with Lamar Jackson the first game back, 30-16 over the Bears.
00:13:08
Speaker
The Buccaneers 23-3 over the Saints. And the Colts with an absolute slacking of the Titans 38-14. Do you have any thoughts on any of those other games?
00:13:21
Speaker
Well, I'll say this about the Colts game. Shout out to my homeboy, Shady, that won my survival pool. About to send you the money. Unlike other leagues, I pay the money when this stuff happens. Some people like to weeks and months and months and not pay people what they owe, which is just ridiculous.
00:13:38
Speaker
But I'm going to pay man Shady here in a second. um shotmi Shout out to Cash and Neek for tuning ah But, ah you know,
00:13:48
Speaker
I will say this about a lot of these butt whoopings we just talked about. um i was more impressed with all of them would be the Bills because they had to respond back to losing to Atlanta on the road, and they went on the road again ah played team that's very good at home, you know, that being the Panthers, even though it was Annie Dalton playing, and they had this little parallel with that game because with Annie Dalton, when he was with the โ I want to say the Bengals, he had beat, I forgot what team, but him winning that game, got the Bills to the playoffs.
00:14:16
Speaker
It was the first time in so long back in day. And they even cheered him when played in Buffalo that following year. think it was like 2019 or something. I could be wrong, but that's a weird little parallel. So they just gave him his medicine by saying, thank you back in the day us finally getting to the playoffs and handling this butt whooping.
00:14:31
Speaker
So that's pretty much it for to those games. And Lamar Jackson getting that win. The Ravens desperately needed that to stay in the hunt, especially with Pittsburgh losing last week and the possibility of them playing a good Packers team tonight and losing tonight. Did Lamar play?
00:14:46
Speaker
Yeah, he did. He played today. yep and sitting what's you like Yep. He played. And Derrick Henry got his 111th rushing touchdown ah to move him into fifth place all time in rushing touchdown leaders.
00:15:01
Speaker
As well, when I mentioned Myles Garrett's five sacks earlier, I forgot to state your professor's fun fact. He passed Reggie White today on the all-time sack list. and now He's just reaching 30.
00:15:14
Speaker
That's crazy, dude. That's crazy. 111 sacks. And he's just hitting Cody. He's still in his prime. It's fucking crazy. wait All right. Well, let's talk about it. You got to take your medicine.
00:15:28
Speaker
ain't got no problem with that. stuff, okay? a i wrote down some stuff okay
00:15:37
Speaker
Robert Sala, I know we have injuries. lost three people today. Sam Okawana, Maryland grad. don't know if he graduated, but he went to Maryland. He got hurt this this week, so that's another offensive end down. We lost Bryce Huff last game, um who was our best pass rusher since Nick Bosa went down.
00:15:53
Speaker
um You know, I have never been a fan of soft zone for quarterbacks. and It works on quarterbacks that will mess up. But C.J. Stroud, with his numbers, I saw that he is top 10 when playing in soft zone.
00:16:06
Speaker
All right? So if you give somebody a cushion, they're going to carve you up, and you're waiting for them to make a mistake. He's not the quarterback to do that. Yes, they were they were down, Nico Collins and other wide receivers, but going to read off some stats there, O. Okay, here we go. All right.
00:16:22
Speaker
like it let's go and I got this on a different page. so i'll be and I got glasses on, so I want to look cool. ah The Texans went 9-16 on third downs. okay The Texans had 23 first downs. The Niners had 12. The Texans had 75 plays. The Niners have 44. The Texans had 318 passing The Niners have Texans had yards. And yeah but texans had one hundred and fifty seven rushing guard rushing yards pardonn me
00:16:53
Speaker
and the nines have forty eight and here's the kicker oh and a sixty minute gain How long do you think the Texans had the ball?
00:17:05
Speaker
a I mean, after telling me all those stats, I want to say like three-fourths of the time, maybe 45 minutes. 41 minutes. forty one minutes 41 minutes. don't care who you are. right You're not going to win like that. You're not going to win.
00:17:19
Speaker
D'Amico Ryan's outcoached Shanahan. Yes, we didn't get a first down to about three minutes into the second quarter. um Texans only punted the ball twice, but you got adapt. You got change. And that's something they didn't do. The Texans won this game. I know we are a very injured team. We're down to where we're going to be There are four-string defensive ends and third-string linebackers coming up pretty soon. So I get it, but I cannot sit here and be happy that we beat the Falcons on Sunday Night Football list with those injuries, and then we lose today with those same injuries plus one or two or three.
00:17:53
Speaker
So you got to take the medicine either which way. Good with the bad. I can't use that same excuse when we win and not use it when we lose. So, you know, they up we got outcoached. And, you know, you got Colt McKibbitts, our white tackle, who was being a turnstile for Will Anderson Jr. You know what I'm saying? You hiked the ball. you to flip it. What was that? You're right by him. That's what I was going to ask you because I was going to say, if Trent Williams was playing, like what happened to your offense? Because your offense, I mean โ Mack Jones is has been there now for a few games, so the offense has just didn't didn't look to get into gear today with 15 points.
00:18:28
Speaker
Yeah, the offense line, I know one. They're only two hours behind because it's not all the way. It's not East Coast or West Coast. think it's Central time. So it was two hours behind. i think they were still in probably Santa Clara or just passing sorry passing ah Vegas.
00:18:41
Speaker
Their mindset, i don't think it got to Houston officially. I just don't think so because they just played like that they did they weren't they just weren't with it. And, you know, you're not going to win a game like that for those stats I just said. So offensive line looked like Pasuda, Mierna, you know what i'm saying? They looked awful.
00:18:57
Speaker
So โ Now, you are still in the hunt there. Seattle, five and two Los Angeles, 5-2. Y'all are 5-3. So, you're still there. Stroud did, as you mentioned, a great job of distributing the ball, completing passes to nine different players.
00:19:12
Speaker
Nine. So, he was just, as you mentioned, cutting up that zone and just spreading the ball around. And as you also mentioned, the Texans did keep Christian McCaffrey in check to only 25 yards rushing, 43 yards receiving after getting 200 yards of offense last week.
00:19:29
Speaker
Rookie Woody Marks for Houston went for 62 rushing yards and 50 receiving yards. So the rookie faring nicely there um in a game. But ah again, there were injuries.
00:19:40
Speaker
The 49ers ended a NFL record of 14 straight games without an interception. Right. trial covering 469 consecutive passes.
00:19:53
Speaker
And i know you mentioned that stat earlier in the year, so that y'all hadn't got an interception. All right. Well, that's that for the 49ers. Before we move into the only good game of the day, shout out to Jonathan Taylor.
00:20:06
Speaker
Three TDs for the Indianapolis Colts. And I started touting the non-quarterback MVP on the Professor Saman Almente last week. And I got to say, ah Jonathan Taylor is up there in the MVP voting for me, especially with the quarterbacks having a down year.
00:20:23
Speaker
i don't really want to hear these arguments against running backs and receivers if they're having such a good year. I'll put him up there. You got to put McCaffrey up there. got to put John, if you're going to say nine quarterbacks. I'm trying to think of a receiver that's kind of been out of this world. I can't really think of him at the moment.
00:20:41
Speaker
But ah definitely, I'll put him up there what with those running backs. If we're going to put quarterbacks also, I got my man Baker up there. He's killing it. So...
00:20:53
Speaker
44-24, Cowboys get a butt whooping by the Broncos. Any thoughts on this game? It's funny how ah a week changes things, okay? Last week it was, we're this, we're that, and you beat the commanders.
00:21:05
Speaker
um You know, the commanders were down, you know, Debo, down Terry, a down Jaden in the game, and, you know, Cowboys are, we're back, we're we're scoring, we're scoring.
00:21:17
Speaker
Reality really sets in quick in the NFL, okay? It's what have you done for me lately, Lee? And we saw what happened today. So everybody i was chirping all that da-da-da-da-da, Calm it down. Because I had Dak in there as as as MVP.
00:21:31
Speaker
canadanna who's playing He's been playing very well. Not today. Not today. and i'm Not today. He looked he looked like Carson Wentz out there today. Two interceptions, 188 yards, a 51.5 quarterback rating is just horrible.
00:21:44
Speaker
So bad that they brought in Joe Milton at some point that ah went for 156 passer rating. So he completed three or four for a touchdown. So, I mean, hey um yeah, that doesn't look good for for Prescott or the Cowboys who really needed that victory to stay in the hunt.
00:22:01
Speaker
Now at three and four, they're falling further behind the Eagles. All right. Well, let's move it to the only competitive game of the day. The New York Jets finally get off the snide and get their first victory. No, they will not be an this year, 0-17 now, team this year. No, the Bengals finally won 1-39-38 in a thrilling yay against the Cincinnati Bengals.
Jets' First Win Analysis
00:22:33
Speaker
Joe Flacco still throwing the rock all over. Looked like he was about to lead them to a win.
00:22:38
Speaker
What are your thoughts on this game? I was watching this because I had this on or when i was watching Niners game because the Niners, the way they were playing, they deserved to be on the big screen. They had to be shared screen with three other teams the way they were playing.
00:22:50
Speaker
That's how it goes in my house. If you don't play well, you don't get all my attention. I got to be all over the place. um I'll say this. All that talk about Joe Flacco, shut it down. he He played well in the first half. And then, you know, Aaron Glenn made some adjustments. He wasn't throwing all over the place like he was. Because when we hit when he hit T. Higgins to make it 24, I was like oh, snap, they don't want this game. But ah there's no there's no quit. And we all tested Fields' will to be a quarterback. Do you want to be a quarterback? Are you going to get better?
00:23:19
Speaker
I think that from what I was watching, they kind of simplify the offense for him. Stop having him things he cannot do, you know. And finally, Commit to Brees Hall. He is good.
00:23:31
Speaker
You see what happens when you give him the ball creatively. Brees Hall is good, okay? if If Fields is more of a running quarterback and he's more of ah an intermediate quarterback, do that. Stop making him read, go through progressions. He can't do that.
00:23:44
Speaker
Stop, all right? Stick to what he does best, and that's what they did. And I will say Aaron Glenn on the defensive side. um Of course, you know, the the Bengals, they'd scored about 38 or whatever.
00:23:57
Speaker
Mm-hmm. Yeah, they scored that, but he he he put the clamps on when needed to. So he made the adjustments when he needed his team to respond to the coaching change of plays and stuff. So I'll shout out to Aaron Glenn on that one. But, hey, got a win. So, you know, they got robbed. Not robbed, but, you know, when the Buccaneers beat them, he thought they were going back and Buccaneers came back and beat them. Now they finally got a win. Good for them, man. You know, hey, JTES, Jets, Jets, Jets.
00:24:26
Speaker
Yeah, and I mean, the Jets, 502 yards of offense, 502. And a week after the Broncos came back in a huge comeback, they were down 31-16 after three quarters and ended up coming back and winning this game over the Bengals. So two amazing comebacks week after week. And as you mentioned, Brees Hall.
00:24:47
Speaker
18 carries, 133 yards. Justin Fields, 244 yards and touchdown. Yeah, we talked about it last week, right? and um And I've been saying this since he was in Chicago, and he had that stint of like six to eight games where they were just using his legs and making sure he was only game managing and passing.
00:25:03
Speaker
And he was getting, he was like... getting a whole bunch of yards, scoring touchdowns, and yeah I don't know why they ever went away from that. Then they trade him, and now no other team, as we've talked about, knows how to properly use him. like He's got to be a game manager in the passing game and use his legs. We know what he is at this point. I don't know why they keep trying to do otherwise, but hopefully we will see this as a change.
00:25:28
Speaker
Hopefully Aaron Glenn is learning in his first season. Obviously as a rookie coach, it takes time to get acclimated to the league. And, uh, you, Hey, he made the right halftime adjustments, which is a very important part of being a coach. So, you know, good on them. We'll see if they can win any more games.
00:25:45
Speaker
Um, I don't actually, let me, uh, bring up their schedule here. So we can see one of the ones coming up. They might have some winnable. So they got the Browns it next week, possible. yes They got the Patriots after that.
00:25:58
Speaker
Maybe. Ravens, probably not with Lamar. Falcons, I don't know. Dolphins, maybe. Jaguars. Okay, so they got a pretty weak schedule. Yeah. Yeah, they got a pretty weak schedule down the stretch. They only play the Bills really tough. Okay.
00:26:12
Speaker
All right. Yeah, they could they could get a couple more victories in there then. right. Oh, by the way, um ah prayers up. Rest in peace. Nick Mangold um unfortunately died to due to kidneyney kidney disease complications at the age of 41. Okay.
00:26:29
Speaker
That's terrible. And I heard something about this, and apparently he had been looking for a donor since he found out back in like 2006 or something. And I never knew that there were there was just not ever ah like a match in a donor, right? I figured everybody always had a match and that there just probably weren't enough donors. That I know happens.
00:26:51
Speaker
But to not have a match at all, and when they were talking about it on the broadcast, they mentioned that he never able to find a match at all. And I was like, that seems pretty crazy. I didn't know that was even possible. That's all Yeah, prayers to his family. Also prayers to Cam Scadaboo.
00:27:07
Speaker
I didn't see it, and I'm glad I didn't. I turned it off right before it happened, and then they said they were playing the replay, and I was like, I'm not watching because I don't like seeing those things. ah So I don't know if you saw it, but his season is apparently over with a ankle ah broke broken ankle.
00:27:24
Speaker
Yeah, it was kind of similar Fred Warner, you know, facing the opposite way. You know, would when that would When I always said that, think he said it also, him and Dart, they're not long for this season.
00:27:38
Speaker
This isn't the way I was thinking it would be. Actually, when it happened, I thought it was exactly that. I thought of you, and I was like, that's not what he was what he was getting at when he said that. Yeah, I was more of like you know him wearing the ball. It's just football's football. Anything can happen. But ah you know his style...
00:27:55
Speaker
oh This injury didn't attribute to it, but it's just, you know, unfortunately football and things happen. And it's unfortunate happened to him, especially the rookie year. And anybody really gets injured like that, you know, you don't want their season get taken from them like that. So, you know, at first had think about it because I was like, man, was that in Jersey where they played?
00:28:14
Speaker
Because that field, you know, it's notorious for ACLs and all types of stuff. Oh, yeah, yeah. It was actually in Philly. I think they used regular grass in Philly. So, you know, it's what it is.
Aaron Rodgers vs. Packers Discussion
00:28:24
Speaker
oh Yeah, no, i'm but don't I don't like seeing those things, so I'm glad I didn't see it. But, ah yeah, no ah prayers up. Get well soon, sir.
00:28:31
Speaker
All right. Well, let us ah move it into the Sunday night game. Tonight, yes, we have ah the โ
00:28:48
Speaker
games my bag of Revenge game of all revenge games. games. The Packers and the Steelers. Aaron Rodgers in his new home in Pittsburgh looks to defeat his old team that he spent 18 years with. Now, he mentioned in an interview that um he still loves the franchise and he doesn't harbor any ill will and things of that nature. And maybe that's the case now. Maybe he's grown a little bit since he was upset when they drafted Jordan Love in the first place. But this is going to be an awesome game nonetheless. Even without that storyline, two really good teams coming in here.
00:29:30
Speaker
What are your thoughts on this game? Well, mean, this game is going to be good. You know, think that we're going to be in for a treat. We're going to be in for a major treat. I think that hopefully it's a high-scoring game because we've had a lot of blowouts all week.
00:29:51
Speaker
This game hopefully changes the mode what we've been ah used to it and having. It's going to be โ oh he claimed would I know Aaron Rodgers said that he doesn't have any ill will. Did he say that he didn't have any ill will towards the Packers or this game just like any other game?
00:30:06
Speaker
Or has he come out and said that, you know, hey, I'm going to put about 40-50 on them? um I haven't heard any rumblings of that, but I know he wants to say that in his mind. And I think Jordan Love, he has something to prove because he looked like trash against the Cardinals last week.
00:30:20
Speaker
even though they won, and he needs to prove that the the fan base said, no, you guys didn't make a mistake by drafting me. I am that dude. So as both both of them have something to prove.
00:30:30
Speaker
um I'm eager to see how this goes. Am I making my โ Yeah, it is ah before you do, it is a three, two-and-a-half-point spread.
00:30:41
Speaker
Green Bay is the favorite in Pittsburgh, so the road favorite in this one. Okay. Yeah, you can go ahead and give your pick. I'm going to โ let's see. Let's see. Let's see. Let's see. I'm going go with a classic 34-27 Packers win. Okay. 34-27.
00:31:02
Speaker
twenty seven packers win okay thirty four twenty seven um I'm actually going to โ hey, you know me. I'm all about the storyline. The professor loves the storylines. ah I'm going to take the Aaron Rodgers revenge game victory at home with Pittsburgh. I get that the Packers are probably the better team.
00:31:25
Speaker
um But not by, I wouldn't say by a whole lot. Yeah, they're probably the better team overall, but I wouldn't say it's by that much more that they should necessarily be the the favorite on the road. But yeah ESPN Analytics matchup predictor does predict Green Bay after all the simulations to win 56% of the time. So there you go there. But yeah, I'm going to take it. I'm going to take the spread. The spread is 40, the over-under is 45 and a half.
00:31:53
Speaker
I'm going to take Pittsburgh by a field goal. I'm going to 27-24 Pittsburgh over the Packers in this one. And just to let everybody know, um this is his, I believe, let me see, 12.
00:32:16
Speaker
ah
00:32:20
Speaker
I believe this is the first time, right, that Rodgers has played Green Bay since leaving. I believe so. I think so, yeah. okay yeah, that's what thought. You wrong, but I think this is the first time. Because him playing with the Jets because he only played really last year.
00:32:35
Speaker
head up Yes, no, you're right. Okay, wow, yeah, this means even a lot more then to him. Yeah, no, I just realized that. I was like thinking, I was like, wait a second, I don't remember him ever playing. No, that's crazy, okay. Wow, so this is even bigger than we were even thinking about.
00:32:49
Speaker
um So we'll see. packers Packers have not won in Pittsburgh. Get this, your professors from Fat Club, or D. Since a 2012 victory win, way back in 1970 was the last time the Packers won in Pittsburgh.
00:33:04
Speaker
So they lost each of the, yeah, they've been back six times since and have lost every single time. That's why it's only been six times that they've played there. I know the Niners, we haven't won in Minnesota since the eighties, I believe. So yeah it's it's weird how those, and that, well, mean, it's worse for us as NFC, but yeah. a It's like, it's like a one out of, one out of every eight year average, but that is weird because we're supposed to play what?
00:33:27
Speaker
One every four years. I thought it was. Yeah. One every four, but Yeah, that's just crazy, right? Yeah, saw that. I was like, damn, that's in 1970. That's crazy. All right, cool. Franchise, you really don't ever think playing each other that much.
00:33:42
Speaker
You know what i'm saying? That's true. Yeah, that's true. Yeah. All right, cool. Well, let's get it into the Monday night game. Wish Pete was here, but he's not.
Chiefs vs. Commanders Predictions
00:33:51
Speaker
We got the Kansas City Chiefs and the Washington Commanders, obviously, Arrowhead Stadium.
00:33:59
Speaker
Going to be a really good game here. Let me get up the ah odds and the... And the, well, let me see what the spread is here. It's 11 and a half point spread for Kansas. Oh, that's right, because ah Daniels isn't playing.
00:34:14
Speaker
Jane Daniels is out. Marcus Mariota is playing. 11 and a half point favorites for the Chiefs at home. forty seven 47 and a half point spread here, Clever D. What are your thoughts on this game? I'm going to s switch this string.
00:34:25
Speaker
Yeah, I'll say this. Yeah, no. yeah I'll say this. ah we got We got the ah the commanders going against the Chiefs. Everybody thinks the commanders will go down. This is going to be a battle of used to be Native American named teams, but now you know they they changed the watchful team to commanders. you know We all think that the Chiefs are rolling on all four cylinders. okay They got Rasheed Rice last week.
00:34:54
Speaker
they They blanketed the Raiders last week. we not and They're rolling like Golden State back in the day. Now, Commanders will have McLaurin back. They will have Debo back. We'll start for J5. The real thing is, will the defense, will they be able to stop Mahomes?
00:35:12
Speaker
Okay? We're due for a fluky game this week. Was it the Jets game or will it be this game? That is the real question. I personally feel that with all these butt whippings this week and we haven't really had too many good games, the Sunday night game and the Monday night game will be thrillers.
00:35:32
Speaker
All right. I already said Pittsburgh is going down tonight to the visiting Paffers with my selfish fantasy needs. um Where's this game at tomorrow?
00:35:44
Speaker
Is it here? It's in Arrowhead. Okay. Okay. but You know what? i'm I'm going out on a limb. Okay? Commanders will win the game.
00:35:56
Speaker
With Marcus Mariota. With Marcus Mariota. They will go down there. They will march up and down Arrowhead. Debo will finally get on the slide and beat Andy Reid because he couldn't do with San Fran. We could go get our butts whipped.
00:36:10
Speaker
Debo, Terrible Clone will be back. The Chiefs won't see it coming. The Commanders will win. Everybody starts. We're going to lose this game. I got the Chiefs by 30. Yeah, you got me. I was like, wait, what? For real? Chiefs are rolling right now. They might put up 40. I'll say 40. I'll say 44. That's what put on last week. I'll say 42 to 24, Chiefs.
00:36:34
Speaker
I'll go with that. so ba put upon last week i i say forty two so to twenty four chief ah wrote that Yes, I think it's going to be a blowout as well. Patrick Mahomes still proving you know that he's one of the best 1,800 yards, 14 TDs with only two interceptions this season. So they've won three out of four. They are definitely found their groove.
00:36:57
Speaker
um And yeah, Andy Reid is a tough coach to beat, and it's not very often that he gets out game planned or outcoached. And so I don't expect that to be here either.
00:37:08
Speaker
The commander's defense, your professor's fun fact, is giving up an NFL worst 7.8 yards per pass attempt and allowing 364 yards per game, twenty seven Out of 32 teams, that means that Patrick Mahomes is about to blow them out of the water with his passing.
00:37:27
Speaker
um There have been at least eight pass plays of at least 40 yards that Washington has given up to their opponents tied for most in the NFL. So look for a lot of deep passes to Rasheed Rice, x Xavier Worthy, and expect, as Clever D mentioned, the Kansas City Chiefs to blow out the ah the the commanders here, I believe that 11.5 point spread is even a little generous.
00:37:54
Speaker
um So I'm going to say to go 35-21. 35-21 Kansas City. think that's even probably... twenty one thirty five twenty one kansas shitty i think that's even probably a little too much for Marcus Mariota, but I'll stick with it. It sounds all right. But yeah, I think they might even get blown out worse than that. So we'll see. It's going to be a close game, hopefully the one tonight will be.
00:38:20
Speaker
Yeah. All right. We're good for that. It's, it's, it's, uh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Let's take a look at the games next week on the schedule. So the only one I highlighted because it's really the only really one featuring. Oh, no. And the Chiefs and Bills.
00:38:36
Speaker
um You got the Chiefs and Bills on the left and the Colts and Steelers on the right. Those are the ones featuring positive win teams. um The rest are a variation of of law of winners and losers going against here. So what are your thoughts about any of these games here?
00:38:52
Speaker
Damn, they got the Commanders on Thursday night when they play on Monday night? Unbelievable.
00:38:59
Speaker
No, they're playing on Sunday night. Oh, okay. I'm sorry. I see. I ain't got glasses on. That's what I get. Sunday night. Sunday night against the Seahawks. And then the Cowboys play the Cardinals Monday night. So, i yeah, only game besides the Chiefs and Bills. It's pretty intriguing.
00:39:15
Speaker
Yeah. oh Pets and Broncos might be interesting because that's going way too good defenses playing each other. Oh, yeah, that's Yep. Colts and Steelers, yes, that's definitely must-see.
00:39:29
Speaker
oh so For some reason, ah that Dallas will bounce back and go back to their old ways when the Cardinals were defeated. The Cardinals were in that division, how that would make which makes no sense.
00:39:41
Speaker
so I feel like they're going to resort to their old ways. My sleeper game, which would be semi-interesting, will be ah the Bears versus Bengals. think that would be a very interesting game for some reason.
00:39:54
Speaker
Yeah, probably going to be some scoring in that one. Yeah, think there will definitely some scoring on that one. All right, cool.
College Football Overview
00:40:00
Speaker
Well, let's take a look at the college games from this past weekend. There were three major contests, which I'll highlight in a second.
00:40:06
Speaker
But these are your overall scores just for anybody looking there. So the ones we have, we won't touch on. My UCLA Bruins, obviously, I got to take my medicine. We got a fucking ass-whooping.
00:40:17
Speaker
Talk about ass-whooping casserole. That was a one. That's not cause. Yeah, with just a bunch of sides of corn. um Georgia Tech blew out Syracuse. Oregon over Wisconsin.
00:40:28
Speaker
good shout ah Good victory by Memphis over South Florida there as well with ah BYU beating Iowa State. Virginia beating Bill Belichick and North Carolina there.
00:40:39
Speaker
ah Tennessee blowing out Kentucky. Texas getting a much-needed win to keep them in any type of playoff talk. um They're over Mississippi State. Michigan State just looks looking horrible lately these past few years. They're probably go to end up firing that coach there.
00:40:55
Speaker
Houston being beating, defending, Big 12 champs, Arizona State. And then we have three games we will talk about here in a second. But anything stick out to you there on this one? Switch to the first spring real quick.
00:41:07
Speaker
Yep, gotcha. Just for one second. There's only one game that really matters. That's Virginia Tech winning in double overtime against Cal at home. Everybody was tuned in on Friday night to watch Virginia Tech do their god darn thing, okay? The first drive we scored and then forgot knew how to play a football until the the game. We came back. We won the game, double overtime.
00:41:27
Speaker
Please, somebody save that school. We need it. That's all I got. Sorry. So, I mean, I just have to bring up the the fact that everybody's been talking about and the most, the thing that makes the most sense.
00:41:39
Speaker
Aren't we just expecting Shane Beamer to become the coach at Virginia Tech? ah Well, here's the thing. As my medicine's wearing off, I feel like after watching that SEC joint on Netflix on the way out to Vegas for fancy draft, we love him down in South Carolina. He could do no wrong, okay?
00:41:58
Speaker
um He had a lot of, expectation for this year for that for that school, but you know it's just a down year for them. I don't think they're going to fire him. If they fire him, yeah, of course, I think that he's going be the guy, but I don't think South Carolina is going fire him.
00:42:14
Speaker
They like him too much. Okay. Yeah, and they got it and they got a good young team. They've hit some bumps in the road this year, um but they've they've been they've been pretty they've been decent. They've been in most of the games, too, this year. All right, let's talk about the three big games from this weekend.
00:42:28
Speaker
ah We got the um the LSU Tigers getting shellacked. By Texas A&M, Brian Kelly may get fired himself this season if he doesn't shape up ah because they just they lost to Texas A&M who just fired Jimbo Fisher.
00:42:44
Speaker
Then you got Ole Miss with a good victory over Oklahoma in Oklahoma. Oklahoma really needed that game. That sucks for them. They're probably out of the playoffs now. Yeah. And then finally, Vandy, I was at game day. It was awesome. Vandy, 17-10 over Missouri. They are going to stick in the top 10.
00:43:04
Speaker
How crazy is that? What are your thoughts on these games? I love love, like, as much as I, I don't know, Vandy's quarterback. i know Pavla. He's, he's, he's, Is it Pavia? pop but javier javi Pavia. he's He's very good, I feel like he reminds me of Bo Nix and Chris Winkie. He's like 38 years old.
00:43:20
Speaker
um you know He's been there forever. They're a sneaky good team. you know You cannot take them lightly. They've proven that they are they should be talked about as a top 10 team in the nation.
00:43:30
Speaker
um With the LSU getting... a Molly walked, you know, it is what it is. I feel like I'm mad because once he gets fired, that's another high-level coaching job. as being I was thinking if talked about that same thing. was like, damn. Get out the SEC.
00:43:44
Speaker
you know glad da somebody i've got to so brought you check get out the scc Oh, before I forget, shout out to my moms and shout out Gremlin State University. and Little West Louisiana, where my mom went to school, right right near where she lives. They won the HBCU Classic against Jackson State, who was coached by, we all know, Deion Sanders out in Vegas. She wanted to go. i didn't know she wanted to go to the game. I would have moved my surgeon around, put her little a bit. But ah yeah, they won the first ever HBCU Classic out where the Raiders played in ah and um Las Vegas. Nice.
00:44:19
Speaker
And I want to make sure mention that. And also, speaking of the parallel, Deion Sanders is going to go back to Colorado. oh You might be on the clock, sir. That scene is pretty odd.
00:44:32
Speaker
I got something for you. Shout out. Shout out.
00:44:42
Speaker
um ah That's perfect. I did not know you were going to do that. You did not know I had this. Shout out to College Football Troll, who makes these memes on Facebook. This was tremendous.
00:44:54
Speaker
go I'm a Sanders fan, but take your medicine, bro. Like, this... You got the quarterback from for Liberty. You have probably the best tackle in the nation.
00:45:06
Speaker
He's probably going to go top 10, and they still can't get it together. I'm not sure what the hell is going on in Colorado. You know, I'm not one of those, you know, Chagor Sanders should have been. Chagor Sanders should be like, you know, the gods get the quarterback. I'm not on that stuff, okay?
00:45:20
Speaker
Let's call spade to spade. But get Jesus, geez, man. Did did air everyone just stop figuring how to coordinate and and call the correct place and put people in a position to do well for that work for that team? i don't i know't I'm lost at the downfall.
00:45:34
Speaker
okay It's not like they were boom, boom, but they were making strides to be a better school. And it just went, golly, out the window. Man. Yeah, it was like once was like once Travis Hunter and Shooter Sanders graduated, it's like they took all the mojo with them. It's very, very odd how bad they've been this season. and um I've got to put that meme up again, though, because that is hilarious.
00:45:54
Speaker
that That Jordan face. Look at the look at the little he that haved the hayweed in his mouth. a
00:46:03
Speaker
That's great. Man. That's an asshole. The Utah, too. So Carl Malone came down. He went on field. I said, Carl, what you doing here? Next week, we got some games. Indiana will go to Maryland.
00:46:17
Speaker
Traveling to Maryland. Penn State will travel to the Ohio State. Vanderbilt will go to Texas in a big matchup. Top 25. What else we got here? Louisville going to Virginia Tech.
00:46:29
Speaker
Going to see y'all in Blacksburg. You're going to win? Okay. We're going to win. didn't say we're a game, we're going to win. Okay. Jordan versus Florida going into the swamp.
00:46:41
Speaker
ah Texas Tech taking on Kansas State, who just mollywhopped Kansas this past weekend. Shout out Rock Chalk for tuning in. Ole Miss, South Carolina ah should be a good game there.
00:46:53
Speaker
Brandon, our brother Brandon, is Michigan, takes on Purdue. Georgia Tech, which has been a very surprising team, number eight ranked in the nation there. And then we look at that. You got another ranked game, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Cincinnati, Utah. What are your thoughts on next week's college football games? There are some good ones at all the times. you know I'm trying to see what' what's the noon game. It might be the Vanderbilt and then Texas. Yeah, that's definitely a 12 o'clock game the East Coast. that I would be tuning in to. Watch Penn State. This be game where Penn State play tough and make you think that they they're there there's somebody in the first three minutes of the game and their reality will set in. They're going get their ass whooped. They're going to get their ass whooped.
00:47:36
Speaker
Indiana will probably be They will be at the McDonald's in College Park by the second quarter. Not the McDonald's in College Park. They'll be right there getting lunch during the hot time. They'll probably be there during that game, adding more corn to the crab soup and crab cakes and stuff. They'll probably be doing that midway through the second quarter.
00:48:03
Speaker
That's not my brother. Agreed with you. Virginia Tech, watch the Hokies play tough, okay, against Vanderbilt for maybe, I'll say three quarters, and then fourth quarter, they'll do like they always do and find a way for Kyron Jones to just become what he's been playing off and on this the last two years.
00:48:25
Speaker
You know what I'm saying? We'll play them tough for a hot second then. you know But I'll be tuning in Vanderbilt versus Texas. That is going to be on my eyes right there on that one. Yeah, that'll be 12 o'clock. And then when do y'all play? y'll put Oh, 3 o'clock game, 3.30. Okay. And then the Texas-Oklahoma is the late game, 6.30, and then Cincinnati-Utah late, late.
