Giants Upset Eagles - A Surprise Victory

00:02:22
Speaker
Oh, there he is. Clubber D is with us. Pop it in there. ah Pause. um All right, cool. So let's go ahead and there we are. One out.
00:02:33
Speaker
Do, do. Let's get into that Thursday night game. So Thursday night, we had the Giants in a very surprising ah victory over the Eagles, although this season has been pretty topsy-turvy anyways. But 34-17 was the final.
00:02:53
Speaker
Bam, bam, Cam, Scadaboo with three touchdowns just running forward. through fateful's faces, just taking, just as Clubber D would say, knocking the race off their face.
00:03:04
Speaker
I've heard him say that plenty of times. um So yeah, anyways, but we most people didn't expect the Giants to win. We'll start with you, Lamar. How did you feel about this this game? Very, very surprising game, man. I had made a ah comment in our in our group chat that, man, I really like the way Jackson Dart plays, man. he's He's a guy out there, man. He's he's fun to watch.
00:03:25
Speaker
ah He's trying to make things happen. um I mean, you can't you can't put anything past these guys, man. They look really fun. I enjoy the game. Cam Scadaboo. I talked about Cam Scadaboo a few weeks ago um some of so some of the guys that I coached with, and they were talking about how where he played at Arizona State and this and the third. He was really not that good.
00:03:44
Speaker
Bro, the guy can ball, man. He balled when he played at the what was that one school? It green school college that he played to, then he transferred into Arizona State. He balled in high school. He's balling now. I really like how he goes. du is he he brings that intensity and that energy that they need on the sideline.
00:04:00
Speaker
I love it, man. it's It's a great win for the um the New York Giants. ah But this is also the second week in a row that the Philadelphia Eagles defense just doesn't look like the defense that we expected from them.
00:04:12
Speaker
I know that that our boy from Georgia didn't play yesterday. I mean, I'm sorry, Thursday night he didn't he didn't get to play, but this is not the the Philadelphia Eagles defense that we were thinking is going to be there.
00:04:24
Speaker
And, I mean, you know, if they're giving up 34 points a game. Who was torching that dog? I don't know. It's not mine. Good grief. If they're giving up 34 points to the New York Giants, man, they're going to have to have a better show from Jalen Hurts and Saquon Barkley to keep them in these types of games. But a great show for the New York Giants and ah in a really poor show from the Philadelphia Eagles.
00:04:47
Speaker
He went to Sacramento State, the Hornets. Sacramento State. And, yeah, Peach, if if that happens, you can always just mute mute yourself on your end. So you don't need to worry about ah me doing it. All right.

Eagles' Defense - A Deeper Dive

00:04:58
Speaker
Go ahead great ahead, Peach. What did you think about the game?
00:05:00
Speaker
A shocker. I mean, my goodness, especially with how bad the Giants beat them. um It was just two weeks ago. It was two weeks ago we were discussing. I yeah i said this. Who's going to beat the Eagles?
00:05:11
Speaker
of A mere 12 days later, they lose two in a row and everybody in the NFC East is back in, in the division and tomorrow night's an even bigger game for my boys. That's all I'll say. And,
00:05:22
Speaker
You can't spell Cam Scadaboo without CTE, gentlemen. He runs like a maniac. Runs like a maniac. But I i don't think he's long for this league if you run like that every week.
00:05:33
Speaker
But, yeah. They also have a bunch of videos of him just, like, head-butting walls and stuff like that for just yeah no reason other than to hype himself up. okay Whatever, dude. you I mean, that's your brain.
00:05:44
Speaker
Do whatever you want with it. But ah they did intercept. Jalen Hurts three times on the day. Clubber D, what did you have on this surprising victory?

Disappointment with Eagles' Performance

00:05:53
Speaker
Yeah, kind of like what we said with the whole...
00:05:57
Speaker
not going last long. I said that last week, him and Dart, they'rere they're playing style. That's going to last long. They're going to get hurt. Two, I would say if he's hitting his head against a wall and doing things like that, remember runaway beer truck, that fullback from West Virginia, they used to do that, he hit himself over the head before games and ah have the bloody nose and all that stuff, didn't last longer in the league. That's cute. That's cool for like the movie or the program or something.
00:06:19
Speaker
But in reality, in the NFL, that's not going to last. Let's just let's just call it. Let's be honest with it. um I'm highly disappointed Eagles. I had them in my survival pool. And um ah Mr. Hurts, could you please stop looking stuck on stupid? Run if you're going to run.
00:06:36
Speaker
Pass if you need to pass, okay? You had Jalen Brown, I mean, A.J. Brown wide open in the middle, and you choose to throw a pick six. What are you doing? Calm down. Relax. Bring it in before we get benched for two again.
00:06:48
Speaker
so andy andy ah Andy overthrew Devontae Smith on that play in the third quarter. That would have a touchdown. Did you guys think Cam Scadaboo throughout the night when he kept showing him, he was going like He like shaking his head like he was trying to shake the stars off. And I was like, this dude's fucked up, man. But he kept going back out there, man.
00:07:08
Speaker
He's leading with his head. I forgot what what running back did the same thing and called it out and said, hey, when I lead with the head, it's ah it's ah it's a penalty. But he's doing it. It's not a penalty. So I'm wondering because he's so short. i don't know what it is, but he's leading with his head. I'm not calling that.
00:07:22
Speaker
yeah That's something that's going to be needed to be taken into consideration. If he's going to be head butting and ramming into people with his head, obviously that's got to be, got to be called just like you would, if it was like targeting or something on the defensive side. So, all right, cool.

Broncos vs Jets - A Sluggish Match

00:07:34
Speaker
Well, that was a very, again, very surprising, uh, game there. So let's move into the early game this morning. We don't really need to talk much about it. It was a crap fest.
00:07:45
Speaker
Points were at a premium and they didn't come by very many of them. I just want to see if anybody had anything to say about these booty juice teams. We don't really need to go long on this one.
00:07:57
Speaker
Good win for the Broncos. um I mean, other than that, I mean, they're staying ahead of with the win, they do stay ahead of Kansas City. I think they're tied with um ah the Chargers, but the Chargers since the Chargers had beat them already, the Chargers are one up on them. But, I mean, as far as that's concerned, I mean, you know, you beat a team that's supposed to beat. The Jets are reeling. The Jets are just not really good.
00:08:18
Speaker
I mean, but, I mean, to put up good fight against them, I mean, they ended up going down to kick the football to win the game. mean, it's It is what it is, man. But, I mean, it's good for the Broncos. but Yeah. Any other thoughts, yeah Well, I realize. thoughts on this game. Well, we know what it's like to watch a game before the forward pass was invented because that's what that game was.
00:08:38
Speaker
mean, what is it? Justin Fields like 13 passing yards in the third quarter. Dude, that game was more horrible. Yeah. So let me move on from that one. I'll say one quick thing. um and no i never thought Fields had it. I mean, maybe, who knows, if he runs, maybe, but and we're still searching for our right offense for him.
00:08:58
Speaker
But they had a stat saying that that is the only, that they're one of like five teams that have the same offensive line through through the first five games of the season. And they still look like they got beat like a Hebrew slave. Like, so they need to make some changes. OC from the old line coach, everybody need to go because that is terrible.
00:09:16
Speaker
What type of continuity is that? No, I mean, hey, yeah and especially if it's not actually producing the result that you wanted to produce either. So, um yeah, no, I agree. OK, yeah, we can move away from that.
00:09:29
Speaker
They need to the they do something about those early lending games. I know you're trying to extend your global footprint, but a lot of those games just aren't good because it's probably due to the travel that they have to go on. but Who am I?
00:09:42
Speaker
Anyways, all

Chargers vs Dolphins - A Close Contest

00:09:43
Speaker
right, moving on. Chargers-Dolphins, surprisingly very good game here. 29-27, Devin Achan with 128 yards, two TDs. ah Lance McConkie with 100 yards and one TD.
00:09:57
Speaker
this This game was crucial for the Chargers. Lamar, I know you were just talking about ah the Chargers. What? What happened? What happened? its It's glad McConkie, not Lance McConkie. What I say, Lance? That's great. I'm calling him Lance from now on. That's tremendous.
00:10:17
Speaker
anyway I like Lance. That's great. So anyways, very good game here. Back and forth. Cameron Dicker's fifth field goal of the game won it. Darren Waller, a resurgence of the old Raider coming back. Four touchdowns in the past four games.
00:10:33
Speaker
Clubber we'll start with you here on this one. How do you feel about this game? Oh, you know, this is so I avoided this game for a reason because, you know, we had the kind of like when they played the Giants, you had the Chargers coming ah to the West Coast and ah those one o'clock games get the West Coast guys a lot. And I felt Miami was coming off that high off that Monday night, Monday night win. So I was like, you know what? I'm not going to I'm not going to mess with this team. And then i was looking at earlier because I had four games on and I wasn't checking in. Then I saw at halftime that they were up. i was like, oh, snap. Let me let me start watching that game. And I think That West Coast, that jet lag, Herbert, them they woke up in the second half and just dominated.
00:11:07
Speaker
So ah Miami definitely made it made it a ah ah game towards the end.

Chargers' Inconsistencies - Cause for Concern

00:11:12
Speaker
And on a personal note, I feel like a jackass because I drafted Darren Waller and then I cut him. And he has just been looking amazing.
00:11:20
Speaker
Interesting. That would have been he wasn't even on my radar but for for the draft, so that would have been a foresight for sure. um Hey, what up, Rob? See you in the chat here.
00:11:30
Speaker
ah Lamar, i don't know why it's covering your face. I like it to shift up, but sorry. Since Fields showed why he is not a starter today. Yeah, I mean, look, I i have I have at points defended Justin Fields because I think it's exactly what Clubber D was just alluding to, is that no one has actually properly used his combination of legs and in order to open up his you know pretty much non-existent passing game.
00:11:58
Speaker
But in order to do that, you need to let him run. And when he was really good in that stretch with the Chicago Bears, it was because they were running him pretty much yeah eight, ten times a game, and which is what you have to do with him.
00:12:11
Speaker
So anyways, that's enough about that. But yeah, I don't know. yeah he's He's probably not for long in this league. um Obviously, if you play like this and then you're playing for such a bad team that's winless, it just doesn't make you look ah you know any better.
00:12:27
Speaker
What up, Canteen? Heading back from Charlotte, safe travels, friend. Cowboys lost. Yeah, we'll talk about the game in just a minute here. um But anyways, all right, Peach, what were your thoughts on this game?
00:12:38
Speaker
What game were we talking about again, gentlemen? Chargers-Dolphins. Chargers-Dolphins. I was watching that a little bit today. and Chargers just a slow starter this year, and they needed to win this bet. I mean, they got the they got the Chiefs on the ropes, man, where they're with a slow start. you That's what I'm saying. That's important.
00:12:55
Speaker
yeah You cannot lose this game today. they They hung on one, so good for them. But, man, you have got to be able to win easily against Miami. They're so bad. When you watch, they you watch, I watched them. Like I said, that when I watched them today, they were still bad. They just kept the game close. I don't even know how. But yeah, big win for the Chargers.
00:13:13
Speaker
They needed it. Yeah, definitely. Lamar? Yeah, I mean, so, you know, me, I picked the, uh, I picked the Chargers to win that division. And the last three weeks, I mean, aside from last week, they did play a a better team in Washington Commanders. But aside from that, the two teams that they've struggled against, 0-5 Giants, i but I'm sorry, the winless Giants when they were winless, and now a 1-4 Miami Dolphins team, regardless if you go to the West Coast or not. I mean, at this point, it was Jackson Dart's first start. You got a rookie's first start.
00:13:47
Speaker
You got to do something against that. um And then you had Tua and the Dolphins, who are also one of those teams that are reeling and everybody's talking about their coach probably getting fired and and and all this stuff going on. I don't like how they've played against teams that are are less, you know, you know inferior to them.
00:14:04
Speaker
um Next week, they do have the c Colts, which you can't come out against the Colts next week and start off slow like they did because the Colts are playing lights out football. So, um you know, i'm I'm a little disappointed in how slow they have been starting.
00:14:17
Speaker
um They did intercept um two or three times today to only win by two points and to get in the field goal range with 20 seconds to go to win the game. that's that's not That's not what you want to see from the the AFC West leading Chargers. So, I mean, they got some stuff that they got to fix next week. Like I said, they got the Indianapolis Colts. This is going be a tough game, but they got to do better. they They got to play better football.
00:14:42
Speaker
um but you could You could say it was a by the skin of their teeth type of victory, and I would accept that. But I also think that the Chargers, you know, once they can get into that midseason groove and Justin Herbert, um you know you know, it takes him a while every season for him to get going for some reason.
00:14:59
Speaker
But once he does, you know, I still think this is, as you said, Lamar, the you called it that they were going win the division. I still think they're a playoff team. I don't see anything changing. that we've seen so far, especially as you mentioned with the Chiefs' slow start and the Raiders sucking.
00:15:15
Speaker
So, ah yeah, anyways, yeah, so we'll see if they can continue to win games and maybe even put a little more domination on those victories. All right, cool.
00:15:26
Speaker
Let's move it on into the next game here. The Cardinals and Colts, the aforementioned Colts, 31-27. Good game here too. another Another case of the bad team, as as Peach just mentioned, playing up to their potential against a better team.
00:15:42
Speaker
The Colts, oh, surprising five and one. Jonathan Taylor is a beast. 123 yards, one tutty. um The Colts, man, very, very surprising that they're off to this start, but they are actually, i mean, at this point, you got to start taking them seriously and and and and and and think that they may may be

Colts vs Cardinals - Surprising Records

00:16:02
Speaker
legit.
00:16:02
Speaker
Peach, we'll start with you on this one. They're 100% legit, especially being in the division they're in. i I mean, another good performance by Daniel Jones. Like you said, got the best one of the best running backs in football. It was a show today. today like It was little closer than it should have been, but, hey, they still got the W. And like you said, what a surprise team so far this year.
00:16:25
Speaker
Five and one. Wow, I didn't see that at all. ah Lamar, what do you got on this one? So the good thing for Daniel Jones is here, even when Daniel Jones was with ah the New York Giants and him having Saquon in the back,
00:16:37
Speaker
in the backfield, he's able to have another top-tier running back that helps him out. That helps him out tremendously when it comes to to playing football. But I will say this. Having a guy like Tyler Warren create mismatch against linebackers and safeties.
00:16:51
Speaker
I mean, Tyler Warren is last year. It's this year's Brock Bowers. I mean, he's playing fantastic. I mean, you cannot put that past it. You know what I'm saying? them Him being on that team but was a great i was a great draft pick for them.
00:17:03
Speaker
If they can get that true number one get them deep, a wide receiver out there that can stretch the field, that can make those those plays and so like that. Man, and and and let's let's think about this, guys. Man, we are one Adani Mitchell,
00:17:18
Speaker
Bad play from them being 6-0. Him reaching that ball out, fumbling into the back of the end zone. They win that game probably. They're 6-0. So, I mean, you know, Indianapolis Colts are playing fantastic football.
00:17:29
Speaker
um you You can't yo, you got to give them with giving the props. They got a tough one next week against the Chargers. They should win that game. It's going to be a great game. I think that'll probably be one of the games we're talking about most next week.
00:17:40
Speaker
Who was the guy that fumbled? Adani Mitchell. Oh, Adani Mitchell, OK. Adani Mitchell, yeah. ah He was a Georgia receiver that transferred to Texas, and then they drafted him. But right he was trying to reach out, and he fumbled it in the back of the end zone. Right, right. They ended up losing that game.
00:17:54
Speaker
No, it cost him. Clever D, what you got on this one? Yeah, everyone pretty much covered it. I feel like I'm with Lamar on that one. But you know maybe maybe he doesn't need a a home run threat because and maybe his style is best for like that intermediate and and running ah we in the ball.
00:18:11
Speaker
And then he can just run the ball when needed. I think he is this year's Sam Darnold. Like, you know, there's always that surprise team that's going to make the playoffs, and they're definitely going to be that. um And I'm not sure what he's signed for, it how many years, but he's definitely going to get a check after this.
00:18:28
Speaker
Yeah, I mean, he already got a huge check from the Giants for producing shit, so I guess he might as well take another check. um The Cardinals have lost, gentlemen, check out this professor's fact.
00:18:39
Speaker
The Cardinals have lost four straight, the last two by blowing fourth quarter leads, and they have been in every single game down to the last minute. um So they are just not able to close out victories.
00:18:52
Speaker
um when they have the chance. And I mean, they've just been in close games every game this year, but that's what separates a Colts team from a Cardinals team is can you win those those games? so All right.
00:19:06
Speaker
Well, let's move it on to a very surprising victory after the Panthers defeated Dirty Mojo's Falcons a few weeks

Panthers vs Cowboys - Defensive Struggles

00:19:14
Speaker
ago. ah They now came and put a loss on the Cowboys record.
00:19:20
Speaker
30 to 27, the Rico Dowdle revenge game. He goes for 239 yards on his former team from scrimmage. He's also ah two that's two weeks back to back that he went over 200 yards ah from scrimmage, by the way.
00:19:37
Speaker
So Clubber D, we're coming to you on this one. How did you feel about this game? Well, you know, I think this is the first time undrafted rookie free agent, not rookie, but undrafted person went from back to back 200 yards in the NFL. I think I saw that stat.
00:19:52
Speaker
Very nice. um You know, I i saw a little shot thrown at Lamar because that was like two weeks ago. You didn't have to throw that in there. But anyways. ah I sure did for no reason. Sorry, Lamar. It's ah But this is, you know what, if you look at it, they are undefeated at home, I believe, and they just have ah they have a very good record at home.
00:20:12
Speaker
So maybe just if they play at home, they they have a you know ah better chance of winning. Bryce did what Bryce does. He played kind of so-so in the first half, of then In the second half, started throwing the ball more. So I've always been a Bryce fan, but I think, I mean, I said this last time they they when they beat the Falcons, and I'm to it, I think I said it last week, I'm to say it again, this might be the win that kind of gets them jump-started into being positive and then not being such a crappy team.
00:20:38
Speaker
So I'd like to win for them. And Teratoa McMillan finally breaks out with two of Bryce's touchdown passes that he caught today. So, Peach, how did you feel about this game?
00:20:52
Speaker
I think this is another example of the Dallas defense being horrendous. yeah um They can't stop anything, especially the run. And rico Rico went up and down the hill like he was looking for Billy and Chuck.
00:21:04
Speaker
So, yeah, I mean so so yeah i mean I just another another the week. Great. Another great thing for my commanders. No Dallas and Philly loses tomorrow's game's huge.
00:21:16
Speaker
And yeah, keep it going. Good. Good game for Carolina for sure. yeah Yeah. I mean, any win is a good win for them, especially after that. How desolate they've been the past few years. Dirty Mojo, what you got?
00:21:27
Speaker
Yeah, I mean, it it was actually a really fun game to watch, guys. ah You know i'm saying? Regardless of what they are as far as the record is concerned, I mean, it was it wasn't like a team had to come back to win. It wasn't the team was up big. and it it was ah it It was a very...
00:21:40
Speaker
Good game, back and forth game. Dak played a well. and he played He played well. ah We got to talk about George Pickens here, man. George Pickens is balling out, man. He is balling out as the true number one receiver over there in and Dallas. And, you know, we like we've liked George Pickens when he came out as a rookie because he's just that aggressive, punch you in the mouth style wide receiver. And I love the way that the kid plays. um You know, it was an unbelievable.
00:22:02
Speaker
Yeah. Yeah. I mean, it was ah is an unfortunate loss for Dallas because, you know, saying Dallas really needed this win, um and especially ah a big win for Carolina. I mean, they keep the the pressure on the teams in the top of the division. I mean, it's a it's a big game for Atlanta tomorrow when they play Buffalo that they got to win that game. And then, you know, with the Buccaneers still ah doing what they got to do with their winning, they're still still in that damn competition where, you know, they still got to play each other. So anything could happen in the division right now. And that's ah that's a huge win on Bryce, you know, 200 yards, three tuts.
00:22:31
Speaker
I mean, it's a really good win for the, ah for the Carolina Panthers. And that is a a good point beyond that you made that, you know, you're three and oh at home, you know, so that they could fix those, those ah road

Panthers' True Capabilities - Are They Contenders?

00:22:39
Speaker
games. um You know I'm saying? It could be a a different story for them.
00:22:43
Speaker
The only thing that I would have to say is, is that they are kind of like, Big win, then big loss. And then, you know, then they played well here. And then, what saying? Saw me from last week to this week to the Atlanta week. to the So it's kind of like, what are they what are where what are they really?
00:22:58
Speaker
We don't know. But good win for them. Bad win for the Cowboys. Yeah, no. I'm sorry. Bad loss for the Cowboys. I knew what you meant. Yeah, yeah. That sums it up. Okay. ah Oh, D. Cleasy.
00:23:10
Speaker
Who tuning in said the Raiders still stink. Yeah, we do. We suck. We suck ass. We'll get to that game in a second. I'm going save hours in the 49ers for last. um We're not going to go into this game. I'm just going to say some scores. But if anybody has thoughts on any of the teams I say, you can go ahead and just give us your thoughts.
00:23:28
Speaker
ah Patriots 25, Saints 19. um The only thing I would think here is just Drake made very efficient day is what I would say there. um Anybody have any thoughts on that one? No?

Steelers vs Browns - Quarterback Woes

00:23:39
Speaker
yeah yeah Steelers 23, Browns 9. I have nothing on this game. Put in Shador. but time Please! Actually, no, I do have something to do. You're completely yeah i late right I'd say for this, if Shador was in the game, what the hell is he going to Dylan Gabriel, he's on the ground.
00:23:58
Speaker
They couldn't run the ball. They couldn't throw the ball. I get it. Dylan Gabriel's not selling tickets, though. At least you but get Sanders in the game. We all know it's politics. we all that Let's already start by we all know it's not fair. so Let's not even go with that crap again.
00:24:11
Speaker
We know it's not fair, so let's not repeat ourselves. cause I was talking somebody on TikTok about this. i like oh, well, he did it. Man, you know what time it is. Let him play. Fail, and then when his time is right, put him in. But you push your door in, you're adding to the critics. If you put him in this game, what the hell do you think he's going to do? You know? No, those are all valid points. The offensive line horrible, sure. If you let someone go further in quicksand, then he's that shiny new toy on the side that everyone's clamoring to get.
00:24:42
Speaker
I don't want to set him up against ah play start him against Baltimore. How about that? Don't start him against the the Steelers. He's going like ass, though. No, that's a good point. Steelers, Steelers, good defense, yeah.
00:24:53
Speaker
You know, at at this, at this point, I mean, come on. The Cleveland Browns did this shit to themselves. When they drafted, ah when they draft drafted Dylan Gabriel and they took Shador, and before then they had taken the other two guys and they had eight quarterbacks. like Like, like they did this shit to themselves. They knew, they knew. I don't, I do not feel sorry for them one bit.
00:25:15
Speaker
um He said this last week. They're terrible with fucking quarterbacks. They're terrible with who they have as quarterbacks. Look at Baker Mayfield, what he's doing. I mean, just, you know what saying? At this point in time what do you do?
00:25:26
Speaker
I believe, and this is just this is my my um my opinion, I believe Shador is better than they ah than Dylan Gabriel. The only reason why they are starting Dylan is because they drafted him higher.
00:25:38
Speaker
And you're paying him more. That's the only reason why. Yes, would I put Dylan in? I mean, would I put Shadorn? I sure would. I sure would put Shadorn. Maybe not this week. Maybe not next week. But at some point, you're going to have to say, oh, he's definitely going to go in at some point. I saw this crazy stat. It showed all the teams.
00:25:57
Speaker
NFL, college, and ah um and even baseball that have scored more than 17 points. I think there was like 12 baseball teams that have scored 17 points.
00:26:08
Speaker
The only professional team that has not scored 17 or more points, Cleveland Browns. That's fucking crazy, bro. That's terrible. That's terrible. Wow. That is horrible.
00:26:19
Speaker
They showed like 12 baseball teams that scored 17 or more points. So it's one of those things like at this point, like, gosh, man, I'm,
00:26:28
Speaker
Sorry, man. i feel so I don't feel sorry for them. I do not feel sorry for the Cleveland Browns at all. Well, speaking of 17 points and the aforementioned horrible Ravens with Lamar Jackson, not there.
00:26:41
Speaker
seventeen three Rams victory. Anybody got anything on this?

Ravens' Struggles Without Lamar

00:26:45
Speaker
Pretty much what I thought was going to happen with no Lamar. so they're They're horrible without him. yeah Yeah, and i don't know that I don't know that they're going to be able to survive as we were talking about last week.
00:26:55
Speaker
I don't know. It's not looking that good. I mean, they also... i mean they also did not prepare in the right way for Lamar Jackson going down. There's no way you get a guy in there that has no no type of same attributes to Lamar Jackson so you can run that same offense. I mean, and and that team was that team, we six weeks ago, we're sitting here talking about that team going to the Super Bowl.
00:27:22
Speaker
this is This is terrible, man. It's a terrible showing. um Man, oh, gosh. I don't know. When when is Lamar supposed to come back? hopefully I mean, I think it was what, like four weeks was the original diagnosis? So something like that. i guess Will John Harbaugh be there before he comes back?
00:27:42
Speaker
Oh, interesting. and the turn into some You think they would fire him? You think that he doesn't have enough cash? from i don't think I don't think they would end season, but I think they might at the end of the year. First first one to is going to be at D.C.
00:27:56
Speaker
so That young guy a they that took over McDonald, he's going to go. He's going to go. They're not going to. don't think they're going to do hardball just for what he's done for the city and how long he's been there. Yeah, that's what i was thinking too. yeah the DC, they're definitely going to get rid of that DC and get a newer one.
00:28:09
Speaker
I would say. I would think they would at least give him at least one more year. I don't think they would get rid of him like that. um four four of their games Four of their games, they've given up 35 points or more. That's not good. That's embarrassing. That's definitely not good. their standards to Speaking of the aforementioned Mike McDonald's new team, the Seahawks, 20-12 over the

Seahawks Shine Against Jaguars

00:28:30
Speaker
Jaguars. Somehow the Jaguars are 4-2, even though they look like absolute trash booty juice.
00:28:36
Speaker
I don't understand. But anyways, Seahawks, they took care of business as they should have in this game. Peach, we'll start with you on this Great win for the Seahawks. More disappointment for the Jags. The the Jags is just that team. You think they're going over the hump, and then they win a big game, and they come back the next week and just just choke again. and That's why I think the Colts have that division. The Colts are going win that division.
00:29:02
Speaker
I'm not scared of the Jaguars at all, gentlemen. And so Trevor Lawrence, kind of like Kyler Murray, at some point you're just going to be like, well, this is probably the best that it gets, huh? yeah You know, kind of thing.
00:29:14
Speaker
uh, uh, what you got? Yeah, I mean, that game, I mean, Trevor Lawrence, he, Travis Etienne, he's having a good year, but I guess if he's not on, Trevor's not on. And Thomas has not been looking too good. I know he had a case of the dropsees earlier this year.
00:29:30
Speaker
And, um you know, I don't know when he's going to turn on, but he's it's kind of like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. he They were hiding behind a very good defense. And, you know, Seahawks came in and didn't care.
00:29:43
Speaker
So they took their remote and changed the channel in their own house. So they're going to wake up, but they are 4-2. And it's going to be fun when they play the Colts again. or i don't know if they played more already, when they played play the Colts, that's going a good game. But I'm going to side with the Colts.
00:29:55
Speaker
Traveling to the East Coast, as we know, is tough for West Coast teams. So if you can take care of business, then it proves something. Jackson Smith in Jigba here had 162 yards and a touchdown.
00:30:08
Speaker
ah ah Lamar, what you got?

Sam Darnold's Effective Game Management

00:30:10
Speaker
Yeah, um Sam Darnold, man. I mean, he's he's he's playing fantastic football. ah He's not doing things that to cause the team to lose. I mean, 4-2. Managing the game properly. Managing the game properly. ah They're that sneaky team that will that can sneak into the playoffs, get into the playoffs. I don't know as far as as the NFC West concerned. you know Dion would know that a little bit better than me.
00:30:30
Speaker
But with the Rams being a 4-2 team and now ah and now um ah The 49ers losing today and having two losses. I mean, that division's up for grabs. But I could see the Seattle Seahawks going to a game.
00:30:44
Speaker
And if they get a home game, let's just say they sneak out and win out and win that division, they could probably beat one of these teams that we're looking at and saying, oh, this is a good team. They could go out there and and probably sneak one from it from a team. So I don't see them you know going to the and NFC Championship or winning this football, but they are one of those teams that could go out there and beat a team that we're expecting to win and go out and do something like this because Sam Darnold.
00:31:08
Speaker
Sam Darnold is going to manage that game ah ah good enough to to keep them in the game and and have them win a game. Yes, no, that's a very that's a very good point that you made there. and Like you said, right, his he's not turning the ball over. He's not making mistakes. He's not giving the game away.
00:31:22
Speaker
And that's what you need when you have a really good defense. You you don't need the quarterback to be Superman. Yeah. yeah no i That's seven sacks today, man. They had seven sacks. I mean, that's that's good. That's very good.
00:31:33
Speaker
Yep. All right, cool. Let's move it on.

Packers vs Bengals - Bengals' Continued Struggles

00:31:35
Speaker
Bengals Packers, ah Packers won here 27 to 18. eighteen The Packers, again, this is another game, the third game we've kind of talked about today like this, a team taking care of business when they should be taking care of business.
00:31:50
Speaker
Joe Flacco in his first week in Bengals uniform was not going to be the world beater that he sometimes has shown himself with the Browns or or the Colts or otherwise. um Jamar Chase, 10 receptions, 94 yards, one to a touchdown. He's had two great back-to-back games, so he's in a groove now that Jake brown jake Browning finally started throwing him the ball, and now he got a more competent quarterback.
00:32:14
Speaker
Josh Jacobs, 93 yards and two touchdowns as well. So, yeah, game was game was taking care of business like it should have been. Lamar, we'll start with you on this one.
00:32:25
Speaker
So, I mean, Joe Flacco, man, you got to give dude his props, man. He came in here, what, in the middle of the week? And, you know, he puts 18 points against Green Bay. I don't even know how the hell you know what to do. Like, but how do you know the playbook at that fast? So, i mean, that'ss that's kudos to him being a professional. He's a professional. and in the league, I mean, that's that's on that's unreal to me. I mean, no interceptions. He had two touchdowns. I mean, obviously, you know, you got arguably the best wide receiver in the game with Jamar Chase. You just throw the ball to him and just, you know, something something good is going to happen.
00:32:53
Speaker
But, I mean, this is what we thought. We we know that with I mean, with Burrow, it's probably a lot better for them. Still, that defense has to play better. I mean, you gotta give ah you got to give Joe Flacco a chance to win this game. And, I mean, they were up you know, the Packers were up pretty big. I mean, it was a lot more towards the end of the of the ah ah the game that they they got those points in there. but I mean, I give i give some some credit to Joe Flacco to come in there this week and and still do what he did. um You know, it could have been a shutout or whatever, but it wasn't. So ah right now, man, um unfortunately for the Bengals, don't think this is a year that they're going to be able to do anything.
00:33:30
Speaker
You know what I'm saying? I think Pete talks about it, man. If you're a fan, you're probably looking at the mantra on what you probably want to get in there because it's just not your year. But, I mean, it is what it is. So got to go with that, man.
00:33:45
Speaker
Yeah, no, Cincinnati, ah you know, um just has had problems. And I know we'll talk about the 49ers in a second and their injuries, but just injuries. You know, I've hurt this team over the past few years as well. And then those slow starts that they got out to.
00:33:59
Speaker
And yeah, Flacco is a professional quarterback. So he did what a professional does, but that's still not going to save their season. So it really doesn't matter in

NFC Playoff Picture - Who's Leading?

00:34:08
Speaker
the end. um Cool. All right. ah Who was next on this one?
00:34:13
Speaker
Peach, go ahead. Packers took care of business. They needed to, you know, they got to keep pace with the Lions. So that was a huge win not to lose to a bad team. um The Bengals are the Bengals, man. that That AFC North is so messed up right now. It looks like done Brandon and his Steelers are going to walk away with that one, if I'd have to guess right now.
00:34:34
Speaker
Yeah, Pittsburgh looking looking like the the team to beat right now in that division. Cleber D, what say you? Yeah, I i was going to pick the Packers in my survival, but I chose not to because I'm an idiot sometimes, a lot of the times, and i'm just I just wanted to drink some goop scoop. But anyways, um the are going to have that division. It's going to be sold out by probably like week nine, you know, i don't the way the way things are going. And um what I was really looking at the Packers. Were they going to dominate you know the way i we we want them to dominate? you know After they had that draw against ah Dallas, were they going to come here and wipe the floor with Cincinnati? and you know I was little nervous looking at the game a little bit. I saw those closer than I liked, but you know they still got the win.
00:35:22
Speaker
um The real question to me ah for you guys is after today with Tampa Bay winning and then you got the Packers winning, it's NFC still wide open, you know, or is it just like Detroit and, you know, saying like, how do y'all feel about the NFC? 100% wide open, 100% wide open, man. I think anybody can win it and at this point.
00:35:41
Speaker
Yeah. I think the best team's playing in the NFC right now from three weeks ago when we were talking three weeks ago, we were saying it was the Eagles and the Packers. But now, but now I would say right now is Detroit and the Buccaneers.
00:35:53
Speaker
Yeah. They're the ones that are doing what they got to do. So, I mean, it's, it's, it's, i mean, this is this is what it is. ah This is what makes the NFL so great. I mean, it's yeah any given Sunday. You don't know who's going to win. You don't know what's to happen as far as injuries are concerned, as far as winning streaks, losing streaks, and damn, this team lost to this team, and damn, this team beat that team. So you never know, man. This is what makes the NFL such a great sport.
00:36:15
Speaker
yeah It is why we love football and why we are here to talk about it. That is for damn sure. Clubber um cleverde did you did I go to you yet? about it I'm good. and did okay heart cool yeah I get mixed up sometimes. all gold ah well Let's move into your game.

49ers' Injury Woes and Criticism

00:36:32
Speaker
Unfortunately, you all did take the L here.
00:36:34
Speaker
30-19 to the aforementioned Buccaneers. ah so We'll start with you. This is your account. How do you feel about your team's performance today? i mean It was bound to happen. When you lose Fred Warner,
00:36:46
Speaker
you know that sucks yeah hall of fame fred i'll say and i'll stay on that hill uh when you lose him and you see his foot sideways already knew was like god oh man what why why me why us why does this always happen the niners and their injuries that's just crazy and i'll take away from this it's football and i'll take away with tampa banks tampa bay they're injured they Emeka Jigba, he didn't go back in. You know, he was hurt in the first half. They lost another guard. Their offensive line is in shambles. They already have Mike Evans down and got one down.
00:37:21
Speaker
So there's injuries on both sides. I don't want to make excuse too much on injuries, but I feel like Tyrese, I said this before, and I'll say it again, got me spitting. How much more do you want?
00:37:32
Speaker
and just I just need to know this. Football gods, what do you want from us? What do you want? I don't understand. Why is it every goddamn game somebody gets hurt and every goddamn year something bad happens, you get to the Super Bowl, Kyle Shanahan doesn't even understand overtime rules. I don't understand. why Why are we cursed? What did we do?
00:37:52
Speaker
What did we do? i You know what? Look, okay. If it was a goat, kind of like the the the the the Cubs did, get the goat back. Where the hell that story is, all right? Someone put a jersey in a in in Santa Clara. Wasn't like all the teams in the league put a jersey and put it in cement and curse us? don't understand. I don't get it.
00:38:11
Speaker
Why us Okay? And all you people talking shit about Brock Purdy. He didn't play great in his last game. I'm not going to say whatever, but you saw what Mac Jones is. Mac Jones is not a bad quarterback, but sometimes you can't read defenses. And all y'all are shutting hell up right now, okay? There's two bad interceptions that he threw, you know, didn't have a great game, but he's he's walking wounded as well. And Dominic Pune beat Ava.
00:38:34
Speaker
Buy him dinner. Buy him lunch. Buy him dinner for a whole week, okay? Because he took yours today. He took yours. Buy him food. I'm done. Sorry. No, the bright spot today for the Niners was Eddie Pinheiro kicking four field goals. And also, by the way, an impressive stat that I saw.
00:38:52
Speaker
ah Christian McCaffrey is on pace for 133 receptions this year. I wish there was some less on team we throw to. so I wish. Right. Yeah, you know, I got i got that. lee ah Beach, what do you got on this one?
00:39:05
Speaker
The Baker for MVP tour continues, gentlemen. Oh, oh, oh. He's my MVP right now, man. I mean, he's slinging it to... Amul running out there. Amul's having a hundred yard games out there mean right i out there. He's just it back and forth.
00:39:24
Speaker
pause and yeah sliing it's wild though yeah that' sling is all yeah yeah that's reckless that's very reless ah lamar what you got on this one So, i mean i know I know Dion was a little little twisted here and stuff like that, but you know the I know they played at the same college, but N'Jigba plays for the Seahawks.
00:39:43
Speaker
So it's oh oh not a Mecca N'Jigba? I thought when you said that, shit,
00:39:54
Speaker
so yes so yes so yes tampa bay was was down some players uh he just he just fused it hard the two of them guys
00:40:05
Speaker
Emeka and Emeka and Jigba. But, hey hey, but listen, listen. I know the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are are are rolling. And, you know, some some might say Lamar's a hater. They're division rivals, man.
00:40:20
Speaker
They are playing on they are I mean, they are playing so tight to teams. You had all the injuries for the 49ers, six sacks, two interceptions, and it was closer than it should have been.
00:40:36
Speaker
So I'm really, like I said earlier, they are the team right now that is in the NFC. They are winning. They're winning those close games. And some some might say that, hey, you know, those games those games create the Super Bowl teams. When you can win those tough ones at the end of the game, those are the ones that you need because when you get into those games and it's a hard-fought game, who's going to pull out, right? Yeah.
00:40:58
Speaker
i Five times i didn't. Five times I didn't. so i oh we know but We know. But for right now, for right now, yes, they are winning it out, man. They're doing what they got to do to win the games, man. It sucks for the 49ers. Hey, Deion, I've had this conversation with Deion a couple times, man. He knows that I don't dislike the 49ers.
00:41:20
Speaker
I hate Kyle Shanahan because what he did with my Falcons a couple years ago by throwing the ball after Julio Jones made that amazing catch. I i won't get into that 23, but whatever. But but i I kind of was like, for me, it was like either one could lose because I don't want Kyle Shanahan to win.
00:41:36
Speaker
but I don't want the Bucks to win. But, I mean, um Matt Jones, he didn't he didn't play very well today. I mean, he didn't have the the blocking. He was all over the place, man. Six sacks, two interceptions.
00:41:48
Speaker
But they only lost by 11. And I think they kicked the field goal, um you know, with two minutes go. So, I mean Closer game than it should have been. um But then it sucks too, that loss that you guys had, Dion. I feel for your boys, man, with all those injuries, man. It's it's it's your is your team and the Chargers. Those two teams have the most injuries every fucking year. And they're like, ah, can they fire their strength and conditioning coach and get some money in here that can give these guys off? They're the only one that lost in like a nil down before something like that, spiking the ball. It's just the other person.
00:42:19
Speaker
All right, cool.

Raiders' Ugly Win Against Titans

00:42:20
Speaker
Well, let's move it on. If Clutch B is watching, remember there is only one nation, sir. That is the Raider Nation. ah But anyways, ah Raiders, I'm going to bask in the one victory that we might have the rest of the year.
00:42:32
Speaker
ah So I'm happy that we beat a really shitty Tennessee team. yeah All you people here in Nashville that were talking shit all weekend long. Okay. Uh-huh.
00:42:43
Speaker
I told y'all what was going to happen. And at least yeah day my team at least got me a, I mean, it wasn't a good victory. 20 to 10 over a bad team is not good. But at least we won. um Gino Smith threw another interception here, and it was crazy because right before he threw it, I was like they said on the broadcast, oh, yes and he has he hasn't made many mistakes today. And I was like, yeah, just wait. And then like the next pass or the two passes later, he throws a fucking interception. I was like, damn it, man.
00:43:07
Speaker
Anyways, I'm happy with the victory, even though it was an ugly victory. We'll start with you on this one. Lamar, what do you got Ugly victory? That's not the word, bro.
00:43:19
Speaker
not the words to call it an ugly victory, but it was a victory. I mean, it's not too much to say. It was two bad teams playing each other. Any one of these teams could have won. No disrespect no more. mean, you know what I'm saying? I agree.
00:43:32
Speaker
got to call a spade a spade. ah Yeah, a Geno Smith experiment, man. I mean, i don't know who who you're looking because I know you know ah know what you've been doing the last couple weeks.
00:43:43
Speaker
You've been on the on what what is it What is it, Peach? He's been on what? asked He's been on the Montrach. but I don't know what quarterback you're hoping falls to you guys. um you know But you guys keep winning. You're going to just play yourself out of the top five. And I don't know what quarterback's going to be in there.
00:44:00
Speaker
Carson Beck, I don't know. Quarterbacks in college look like ass. it's This year is not the year of the college quarterback. So you skip on that and try to get somebody in free agency. I don't know. Yeah. but Well, they so they screwed themselves last year when they won those meaningless games at the end of the year against like Jacksonville and moved us out of the position to get a quarterback last year.
00:44:19
Speaker
Yeah. So, I mean, i mean that Raiders are going to do what Raiders do. I mean, whoever's the fastest quarterback, to probably draft them. I don't know. I don't know. But it it was it was a stinker. It wasn't a game to watch. is ah Well, yeah. I mean, I watched it. It was a game for me to watch. Pete, what do you got on anything on this game? You don't have to. i'm just that Bad news is you're not going to get the number one pick. That's to Tennessee.
00:44:40
Speaker
Good news is Tennessee doesn't need a quarterback, so there you go. it doesn't matter That's a good point, too. That's a good point. The Jets, don't forget the Jets. They're 0-6. Oh, yeah. Yeah, to get a walk.
00:44:52
Speaker
But, yeah, Omar, good win for you. I know i know you live in old Nashville. You didn't want to lose that one. That's for sure. Especially with how bad they are. Yeah, I wouldn't have heard the end of that at all.
00:45:02
Speaker
No, I'm so glad that we avoided that. So, yeah. Clever, you what you got? a It wins a away. you guys beat the Patriots first game the season. That win just looks even better now. And now you got this one. So now you got two.
00:45:13
Speaker
And also, not to be Marty McFly or or Doc, but you know you guys did have five rounds to draft Sidor, which you didn't. so I agree completely. i wanted to I wanted us to draft him. I think I told you all of that.
00:45:27
Speaker
Trade for him. That's one more two I'm reading, but I i might think it might be fake. I would be like that. Yeah, they should trade for a Cedore. Tom Brady's there. he's he's He's double dipping, but you know. that's That's why I thought that they were going to draft him because he trained under Tom Brady.
00:45:40
Speaker
Yep. And, you know, get Pete Carroll out, get, get double dip chip out. And then, you know, get a, get Dion in and shut all the the haters up, but you know, go oh that'd be fun. um Yeah. Las Vegas coach Pete Carroll did win his 171st game, moving it into to a tie for 17th with Bill Parcells.
00:46:01
Speaker
How many games? 171. Three years off his birthday. All right. yeah as an ancient I'm sorry. I ruined my joke. I fucked my joke up. Damn it. yeah but I know. this time oh cool Let's ah move it on. We got some games to pick.
00:46:16
Speaker
ah One game tonight, two games tomorrow. And boy, the game tonight is going to be a doozy.

Chiefs vs Lions - Predictions Favor Lions

00:46:22
Speaker
We got the lions who y'all were just talking about earlier. They're, they're one of my Superbowl picks.
00:46:28
Speaker
They are very, very strong. um Against the chiefs, our resurgent did not look good at first, but the past couple of weeks have looked better. Patrick Mahomes is starting to look a little more Patrick Mahomes-esque. Clubber D what do you got on this one?
00:46:43
Speaker
It's hard to pick against the chiefs because we all know they, they find ways to win. um Unfortunately, Some of those calls, you know, aren't going their way.
00:46:54
Speaker
um i got I got Detroit on this one. And we're going to go my patented 30 to 21. 30 to 21. thirty to twenty one Yeah, it's say a two and a half point spread. ah Kansas City is the favorite at home.
00:47:09
Speaker
ah Go ahead, Peach, what you got? 31-24 Lions. I think the Lions keep rolling. I hope I'm wrong because, you know, another NFC loss would be nice for the week. But I just I think they're the strongest team in the league right now, not just the NFC.
00:47:22
Speaker
So, yeah, I actually i like that score. I agree with somewhere around there. 32-21, 32-27, something like that. um but i definitely am going with a a detroit victory lamar what you got Yeah, I like Detroit in this game also. ah The reason why is because of across the board. I think at this point, the Lions have the better defense.
00:47:47
Speaker
um They have the better receiver that's played in the game. They have the better running back. You can say Patrick Mahomes is better than Jared Goff, but Jared Goff is playing a lot better. That's what I'm saying. Jared Goff is playing a lot better than Patrick Mahomes.
00:47:58
Speaker
Really? yeah wouldn't say, wow, I would take Patrick Mahomes any day of the week over Jared Goff. Jared Goff can tie his two shoes, man. Come on now. You know better. Well, and then, you know what I'm saying? You got to look at it like this, too. the ah the um The Chiefs' leading rusher is Patrick Mahomes. So, I mean, is he going to be able to do it all today? I don't know. I think Aiden Hutchinson is going to get to him ah way more than a lot of teams have gotten to. So look out for a lot of sacks tonight. um I would take the over on this. I think the over is, what, 48 and a half?
00:48:28
Speaker
48 and a half. So take the over definitely, but I have the Chiefs winning this one and in a high scoring game. I'm going to go 38, 35 Chiefs. umm I'm sorry, 38, 35 Lions. ah Yes, the over under is 51 and a half, sir. 51 and a half. So yeah, I take the i take the over.
00:48:43
Speaker
Take the over. Yeah, yeah, I would too. No, I'd definitely take the over. Hit the over hard on this one. Yeah, they're going to have some offense tonight. right, cool. Double header on on Monday night.
00:48:53
Speaker
We like the double headers on Monday night. ah you so pick Who'd you puto you pick?
00:49:00
Speaker
ah once Did you pick? Oh, yeah. you i you Yeah, I did. I picked Detroit. I picked right after Beach because he had a similar score. yeah bobby Yeah, I got Detroit. No, you're good. I got Detroit probably like thirty two when he's seven he'll be a close It'll be pretty close.
00:49:13
Speaker
i think I think they'll keep it there. Plus the play it at home. right, cool. Well, let's move it in. ah First, we're going to start with the early game. That is you,

Falcons vs Bills - A Redemption Game?

00:49:22
Speaker
Lamar. You're Falcons at home against the Bills, the powerhouse Bills.
00:49:27
Speaker
ah The Bills are a road favorite here by three and a half points. The over-under is 49 and a half. ah Lamar, this is your account. We will start with you. Yeah, um you know, we're coming up a bye week, so we had a little extra time to prepare for them.
00:49:41
Speaker
the thing The thing I hate about that, though, is that the Bills are coming off a loss to the Patriots. Patriots won today. So they try and they're going to definitely try to keep that handcuff on the division. it's gonna be i think it's going to be a great game. Atlanta is, I think, in the top three in defense as as far as like passing defense. I think they're the top passing defense in the NFL. So it could be hard for quarterbacks to throw the ball around which with Allen throwing the ball around.
00:50:08
Speaker
ah We do get our starting um cornerback back for tomorrow's game. I ah still don't think we're strong enough to beat the Buffalo Bills.
00:50:20
Speaker
As the Falcon fan, I you know i don't want to you know be a homer. I appreciate you being realistic. Yeah, I do believe do think the Buffalo Bills will win this game. I do think it's going good game, though. I'll go Buffalo.
00:50:34
Speaker
Okay.
00:50:37
Speaker
okay All right. i I actually will follow you up, and and I'm picking the Bills as well. um And it's going to be ah something like a 31-21, like a 10-point victory by Buffalo. I just, I agree with you.
00:50:50
Speaker
I don't think the Falcons are nearly as strong as a team as Buffalo, and I think Buffalo should and will handle business tonight. Peach, what you got? 30-17 Buffalo.
00:51:01
Speaker
I think they roll, especially they're angry from last week's loss. yeah need to They can't afford to to lose again, especially with New England winning. So I just don't think I'm with Lamar. I don't think the off your offense is is ready to roll yet. I mean, give a few more years and you might get going.
00:51:17
Speaker
Yep. yep Clubber D, what you got on it? I'm going to disagree with what everybody says. Atlanta going to be hyped. What? It's in Atlanta, right? It's in Atlanta. Atlanta is going to be hyped. They are going to be ready.
00:51:31
Speaker
They are going They did not score a point their last game, I believe. No, they scored last game, did they? Yeah, that was the two weeks ago. That was the shots fired two weeks ago when they got sent out by the Panthers. My bad.
00:51:43
Speaker
But anyways, I have... 24-17. Wow. Okay. There wow wow okay ah you go. The upset ah picked by CoverD. The rest of us went with the Bills.
00:51:57
Speaker
Yeah, we do. We do, Derek. We stink. We suck. And that's okay. You got to revel in the good victory sometime. And we're only going to have one or two this year. so All right, let's move it into the final Monday

Commanders vs Bears - Aiming for Division Lead

00:52:09
Speaker
night game. Peach, this is your account, so we will be coming to you on this one.
00:52:13
Speaker
Bears coming in to that's weird, though. Didn't they go into D.C. last year where Peach caused the Hail Mary that's to happen for his team?
00:52:27
Speaker
Tell us about it. I'm ready for this game, man. Especially after what happened this weekend. It's a huge game. A win puts us in first place in the East, which two weeks ago I would have never thought that would be able to happen.
00:52:38
Speaker
um The Bears are coming in as the worst run defense in all of football, and that's what I expect us to do. Pound the rock. Come on, Cliff. Just give Bill and Rodriguez the ball all game. Keep the ball away from that Bears offense. They can be pretty prolific at times.
00:52:53
Speaker
They're inconsistent, but Caleb makes a big plays. so yeah, I'm going say 28-17, Commanders. Let's go. twenty eight seventeen commanders let's go 20-17 commanders. The spread here ah is 49-1⁄2, and Washington is ah is a favorite at home ah by five and a half points.
00:53:11
Speaker
they've won They've won every game at home this year by double digits so far. 3-0 with 10-plus point wins in all three. hey Very nice. There you go. I appreciate that stat. Clubber D., what you got on this one? Excuse me. um I think this game is going to be back and forth and beginning.
00:53:25
Speaker
and Then the defenses will clam down. I'm going to go with i'm going to go with ah
00:53:32
Speaker
20. scratch that. 33, 27, Washington. 33, 27, Washington. thirty three twenty seven watching All right, cool. ah Lamar, what you got?
00:53:44
Speaker
These teams on paper are very similar as far as statistics are concerned as far as their players one for one. I think they're they're they're really good two young teams. um But I do think Washington is a better team. They're better coaches. was going to say, I don't think they're even that close, to be honest. No, what what I mean by what i mean by like if you were going compare compare Williams and Daniels and Swift and Krosky and gangba and sam even bla from flair they're they're they're really good. I do think that Washington is a better coach team.
00:54:13
Speaker
I do think Washington is the better team. With that said, I think it's going be a close game. I don't think Washington will win on ah on a Hail Mary. I do think they'll win the game. um ah I'm going to go with 24-21. I think it's going to be a really good game to watch, though.
00:54:27
Speaker
ah It's going fun game to watch Monday night. You know I'm saying? Something to look forward to. But I do like Washington on this. I think Jaden Daniels um has a fantastic game in the mind. think he's really going to play really, really good. I would give him two touchdowns and a rushing touchdown.
00:54:40
Speaker
Two passing touchdowns and a rushing touchdown for Jaden Daniels tomorrow. Yeah, they're going to drop. They're going to have at least three or four touchdowns. I would say at 27, 28 points, the Redskins should be able to the distance Redskins. The commanders should be able to drop on the Bears. Yeah.
00:54:56
Speaker
ah but ah But the Bears, yeah, i just look, they're therere they're they're a growing team, but they're they're not the commanders. Commanders proved to us last year by going on that epic playoff run um that they are a legit team to be contended with, and I think that they take care of that's been the motto all show long, and they're going to do the same thing. They're going to take care of business. I see I think someone said twenty seven seventeen Was that you, Peach? That was me. Something like that.
00:55:22
Speaker
Something like that. It's going to be around there, 28-20. maybe a 30 to 17, something like that around their commander's victory. Yep. And and and that was that was a pretty cool thing that you said, Peach, about them winning this game, put some top of the division, and then they got you know they got the boys coming in next week. So, yeah you know i'm saying? For them to be the division leaders and going on against the boys to be able to punch them in the mouth, that would be a really good win for them to have. And hopefully they can ride that high into next week against Dallas.
00:55:50
Speaker
Yep. That'd be big. And Cantina, I believe all of us had Detroit. Is that correct? Or who had the Chiefs? um Nobody had the Chiefs. Yeah, okay. Yeah, everybody got Detroit just like you, Cantina. The Snail.
00:56:05
Speaker
All right, let's take a look ahead real quick. These are the games next week, Thursday. ah Brandon Steelers will be playing the Bengals. And then we've got see what what other good matchups we have. Not too many here, actually.
00:56:20
Speaker
Eagles, Vikings. What really good I know. i guess but No, early game, early game. We're playing you guys on well i' talk about early game on Sunday. what are The Rams, right?
00:56:32
Speaker
Rams and Jaguars. You're going have the Colton Chargers. That's going to be a good game. Four and one up three and two. um You got the, Ooh, we got y'all going up against each other.
00:56:43
Speaker
49ers and Falcons. Yes. Return of Brock and return of Kittle. Hopefully. And then we got the double Monday night header again. I'm loving the double Monday night game. I'm not. ah You don't like it? Oh, I love it. Oh, man. Okay. um Well, I like it.
00:56:58
Speaker
I like watching the Eli Manning show and Peyton Manning show too. I don't watch the night. Eli's. Eli's. Eli's. Anyways, Buccaneers-Lions, that's going to be a a really good game for pretty much the barometer of who's running the NFC, Lamar, right? Isn't that what you said?
00:57:15
Speaker
That's it right there. It's going to be great. It's going be fantastic. It's going to be fantastic game. And the Texans, look, the Texans played better before they're by those last couple weeks. So maybe they have a turnaround in them possibly, and they'd be going up against the Seahawks.
00:57:29
Speaker
ah But the Seahawks are looking strong this season, as we talked about ah earlier. all right, cool. Let's go into some college football results for the weekend. Believe me, I looked all over the internet for better pictures, so I apologize for the Oh, Lord. h Jesus Christ. I find anything better.
00:57:46
Speaker
I know. I'm sorry. I couldn't find anything better. I promise. I looked everywhere. Anyways, ah my UCLA Bruins, we're not going stick long on it, but damn. Just came out and whooped ass on another game. Like they're a whole nother brand new team.
00:58:00
Speaker
This is crazy. I don't understand. it was I was like 38. thirty eight We got 38 on. Wow, we were blowing them out too. Anyways, we don't need to stick on that. Maryland disappointing again after a loss to Washington. Then they lost to Nebraska both games at home. Peach, what is going on?
00:58:18
Speaker
They're doing what they normally do What do you mean what's going on? This is what I said. September, Maryland. they do September, Maryland. Yep. I mean, and then just in in both games, they blew too, you know. like it two Two weeks ago, you're up 20-0. Come on, you can't blow that.
00:58:33
Speaker
yeah And this week, you score that many points and lose. Come on. Come on, defense. Where at? But yeah, September, Maryland, Omar. That's all that was. Damn, that's crazy. ah Let's ah let's ah look at the, what is Indiana-Oregon game, 30-20 Indiana.
00:58:50
Speaker
ah The computers have them ranked number two, so are they for real Indiana football? Ooh, could we be seeing Indiana winning a Big Ten title?
00:59:01
Speaker
Oh, my God. How crazy. What world do we live in? They were a good team to watch last year. They were a good team. They put up a lot of points last year. I mean, they're they're they're continuing in that same role. I mean, they they can they can do i think they're yeah, are they number two or number three? But, I mean, that's a good team to watch, man. Another good team to watch too, man. Georgia Tech, man. Haynes King, man. That guy, he's a good quarterback to watch. Yeah.
00:59:24
Speaker
Yeah, and and you're and you're right, Fernando Mendoza, the Indiana quarterback, is right now projected to go up there in the top you know one or two, depending where Reuben Baines goes. um So, yeah, okay, cool. We also had ah Texas A&M beating Florida really bad, dominating victory, showing that they may be one of the better teams there in the SEC. I know a lot of people were were kind of ah you know hesitant to believe in them.
00:59:51
Speaker
um But they've been putting together some good performances. Also, Texas going in and beating the number six ranked Oklahoma now, granted. ah John Mateer was injured and had like hand surgery two weeks ago.
01:00:06
Speaker
So he probably shouldn't even have been playing. But that's a victory Texas needed because they have to win out if they want any chance to make the playoffs. Yeah. I didn't, I, you know, I, I expected Texas to win that game. I mean, Texas, Oklahoma, the red river ah rivalry is it's always like that between the two of those teams. I didn't expect them to win 23 to six. a Texas offense is still slow for me.
01:00:29
Speaker
There's still a slow start for me. Um, they They have a pretty tough schedule coming up. um They got some teams that going have to play. That loss to Florida was super big to them. um But, I mean, they they can win out. Georgia's not looking so good offensively in

Texas A&M End-of-Year Significance

01:00:44
Speaker
the first half. So with their last couple games, the biggest game that they'll have will be that Texas A&M match that they play at the end of the year. And ah if if I am right, it's at Texas. So if it's in Texas, then, you know, that home field advantage against Texas A&M, you know what I'm saying, it's it's a big game for them.
01:01:01
Speaker
all right, cool.

Alabama vs Missouri - Missed Opportunities

01:01:02
Speaker
Alabama 27-24 over Missouri. What a good game that was. I thought that going to be Missouri's game to get over that hump of, I'm a very good team now. Let me take that next level and had let the nation know who I am, kind of like what Indiana did.
01:01:15
Speaker
This was their time to do that, and unfortunately they didn't do it. And fix that fucking end zone, okay? It looks like dog shit, all right? What is going on over there? i thought it was like a ah construction zone. but You had all season to do that. Why is it still like that?
01:01:28
Speaker
Why is it still like that? Why is it like you had all year? What did y'all do? Way too long. Let's start doing this. What are y'all doing? You got money. Sorry. i just It's just terrible. I'm sorry. that's At first I'm seeing that.
01:01:41
Speaker
I'm like, what is that? That's embarrassing.

Texas Tech's Rising Contender Status

01:01:45
Speaker
Texas Tech, just like Texas A&M, showing that these Texas teams may be legit. Texas Tech there in the Big 12 handling business over Kansas. He also had Georgia. Yes, Canteen, you're Georgia.
01:01:57
Speaker
our dog dancing And our dirty mojo. No. Uh-oh. Uh-oh. What is this? yeah That's a timeout. That's a timeout. This... um I was clapping. I was clapping. No, no, no. Don't put your hands up.
01:02:09
Speaker
You know exactly what it was. Call it a spade a spade. You said it earlier. I want to hear it now. I'm waiting to to talk about this. You know damn well he was trying to call a timeout. that didn't That didn't change the outcome of the game, though. Let's be real. It's not like that.
01:02:22
Speaker
It's not like something happened because that. It's not like because of that something happened. I will say this a fan. I will say this as a fan. That... that fumble on the one yard line at the goal line.
01:02:35
Speaker
Wow. That hurts. And and and that that's terrible. But that what I'm talking about, was that a timeout? Was that not a timeout he called? i called it He called the timeout. but here's But here's the thing. Here's the thing that people don't understand is that they had talked about it before that it was going penalty that they can't the defense can't clap because Georgia uses it in that loud environment. They use with the hard snap clap and the safety was clapping.
01:02:58
Speaker
He was clapping. So, yes, they weren't able to get their timing down to snap the ball. So he was running down there, timing out, saying timeout, timeout, timeout, because they were about to have a delay of game call.
01:03:08
Speaker
But he was explaining to them that they're clapping and they're not allowed to clap. So I don't know. This is a long-ass explanation, which makes me seem like it's not right. yeah The is not allowed to clap. They're not allowed to clap. No, no, no, no.
01:03:24
Speaker
It's called timeout. I got caught and I played it off. That's all it is. That's great. They won, though. They do what they're supposed to They won. I'm not going to knock that, but I'm just saying that was the bullshit. Go Dawgs, canteen.
01:03:37
Speaker
also Also taking care of business, LSU over South Carolina, Tennessee over Arkansas. ah Sorry, Club Reddy, Georgia Tech over Virginia Tech. Come on. And sorry, we're Squish Touch B. hope he's listening.
01:03:51
Speaker
Y'all took an ass whooping to FUSC. We ain't hear from you. Hey, hey, hey, about Florida State losing three in a row? Jesus. Hmm. They haven't won an ACC game. He hasn't won ACC game in, like, what, a year or some change? Man. It's been a long time since won an ACC game.
01:04:09
Speaker
yeah Big game next week is that Tennessee-Alabama game is going to huge. And I think Georgia plays Ole Miss. And we got LSU-Vanderbilt up there as well. You got Oklahoma-South Carolina. Yep, Georgia-Ole Miss. right So we got some good got some good games next week. Tennessee-Alabama.
01:04:25
Speaker
Great games next week, yeah. Memphis, surprising Memphis 6-0. How do y'all feel about Memphis? I'm going apple to Apple Pickle. because Who? um not this Basketball? They bat six on basketball?
01:04:36
Speaker
Right, exactly. Six and O, man. Derrick Rose playing? Derrick Rose. So, yeah, good games. Is he coaching? Good games next week. Let me bring us back to the forefront here. Here we are.
01:04:49
Speaker
ah Yeah, so an awesome weekend of games. um I know I enjoyed it. Thank you, everybody who tuned

James Franklin's Firing - A Shocking Move

01:04:55
Speaker
in. Oh, wait. Thank you, Canteen. I appreciate it. We got one more thing to talk about that we cannot forget. Somebody was fired today.
01:05:03
Speaker
Oh, the loser. Yeah. James Franklin was finally fired today. Even with a $50 million dollars buyout, they still fired him.
01:05:14
Speaker
I thought he was at least going to last to the end of the season, but they just want that completely gone. Now that's the, the fans were chanting fire Franklin at the end of the game while he's walking off. It's just gotten so bad in Penn, in Penn state land. Anybody have thoughts on, on this guy?
01:05:30
Speaker
oh Look, man, from their first loss against Oregon, and that game was such a defensive game for the first two and a half, three quarters. I mean, it was like, wow, but pun punch, punch, one punch, punch.
01:05:43
Speaker
Those last two losses, you have to get them out of there. You have to. That team is not there. He's lost that locker room. Yeah. Nobody believes in him. This was talked last year. I mean, it's it's not it's not good.
01:05:57
Speaker
Get him out of there now. Start looking for your guys that you can get in there now. They're not going to hire within. They're going to look to the outs from the outside in. um But, I mean, Penn State is ah is a great ah great school to to coach for.
01:06:09
Speaker
That does suck to have paid his due. Was it $45, $50 million? $50 million buyout. would accumulate nobi yeah Get him out of there now. You got to stop the bleeding somehow, and you got to get the crowd back on your side. If he would have been out there again, they got Ohio State coming in soon, get him out of there now.
01:06:26
Speaker
Well, like you said, when they played Oregon in that really, really good double overtime game, people were feeling great about his actual prospects to finally win the big game. But then he came out and not only lost to my winless Bruins at the time, but then came out and lost to Northwestern.
01:06:43
Speaker
I'm like, wow. what like that's the UCLA was bad. Northwestern is an apocalypse for you to be losing to. so yeah Anybody got any thoughts

Virginia Tech's Coaching Prospects

01:06:53
Speaker
on this speech?
01:06:54
Speaker
cupboardy Yeah, ah I'm a little pissed off because ah first of all, Aiden Hutchinson got his family on the field after interviewing and he hugged them. Anyways, um I don't understand why can't Virginia Tech get a break? We were going to be one of the better schools to go to that had coaching slot open. Take Brett Pride back since we fired him.
01:07:13
Speaker
Penn State, but now everybody's going to want to go to Penn State over us. I was hoping we'd be the the better team of opening for a coach, but now you've got Penn State not having a coach and little pissed off about this, but you know, whatever.
01:07:25
Speaker
kind know It makes sense, yeah. You're to have your pick of the litter in that regard. No, not at all. yeah I might coach him. Peach? Peach? Just long time coming. I mean, he hasn't won a big game in how long? Has he ever? I mean, my goodness.
01:07:38
Speaker
Yeah, it was time for him to go. I mean, he was getting booed off the field. It was only going to get worse and worse as the season goes along. So get rid of that cancer now. Cut it out. Yeah, yeah, I agree. I thought, like I said, that they were going to go to the end of the year just because of that buyout.
01:07:53
Speaker
um But yeah, if if you if you have and an infection and you are hurting because you have an infection, you're not just going to let the infection sit there and fester. You're going to fucking go get it checked out by a doctor.
01:08:05
Speaker
So why wouldn't you do the same thing here and extract the infection? And that's what James Franklin has been to this ah university and this ah town.

Georgia's Football Struggles

01:08:14
Speaker
um Canteen says, Georgia's going to the Natty. Do you believe that, Dirty Mojo?
01:08:19
Speaker
o Not with Bobo calling those plays. not bu all as close as take Come on I love you. can' No, I know. but he let He's a homer. He's a homer. So as far as our defense concerned, our defense is young.
01:08:32
Speaker
um You know, we lost a lot of players to defense last year. We don't have that true defensive leader ah to that stands out and kind of gets the defense rolling and to fall behind. they're They're giving up too many points. And then the thing that sucks is that Bubba's play calling is so bad that If they do give up a touchdown, they're going three and out.
01:08:48
Speaker
And it's kind of like, uh-oh, uh-oh. And a lot of teams are like, if we can jump up out on on Georgia. Now, the last couple of years, Georgia has been a second-half team. It's been you know, weve we've talked about this, is that Georgia is scoring six to ten points a half, but then they'll come out and score 30 in the next half. So he does make the the adjustments that he does needs to win But, man, God, man, this this is not when Todd Monklin was there. When Todd Monklin was there, there's a bunch of people in the face.
01:09:13
Speaker
Todd Monklin's off in the NFL um office coordinator for the Ravens. um i i You know, and a lot of talks going into the end of last year was ah was Mike Bobo's job.
01:09:24
Speaker
um uh even even cyrus the offensive line coach they're talking about getting rid of him too a lot of people talk about getting of him the offensive line is a young offensive line uh sophomores and uh freshmen on that offensive line so i'm not too worried about them but mike bobo's play calling it's not good enough i don't think he's going to be there next year and in the university of georgia and i think they're going get somebody that's young to continue to keep these young um flashy uh offensive players coming to the school mike bobo the former wide receiver No, he was a quarterback for Georgia back in the 90s. Oh, he quarterback. That receiver still plays. He's with the... Oh, yeah and his his name was Jake Bobo anyway. Yeah, he's with there either... I think he's with the Lions or the... ah Not the Colts.
01:10:07
Speaker
think he's still league, though. Hey, that's a great segue because we got to get you out of here to go watch the Lions play the Chiefs.

Closing and Next Week's Teaser

01:10:14
Speaker
So go ahead. Hit us on with these sign-offs. Clubber D, what you got for the people?
