It's part of my take. There's an about horses sports. Welcome to part of my take today is fria December 1st and is Dak Prescott, the NFL MVP. I was about to say congratulations to the Dallas Cowboys

for winning the Super Bowl. The Super Bowl? The Super Bowl? I think the Cowboy, this is actually this is perfect because Dallas fans are so confident right now as they should be. You're a good team, but you're basically the same team that you've been, or that you were last year at least.

Yeah, I'm Mike McCarthy is the same guy that he was last year. He almost blew that into the game thing. Yes. You almost did with that pass to the in zone, stop the clock, gave him a lot more time. That would have been something we would be discussing right now if it didn't work out, but the Cowboys are good enough. Well, like Citi Lam is a fucking beast and they're good enough offensively their defense came up big when it mattered even though there were no punts tonight. They didn't force a single punt and they didn't have to punt. The Cowboys played a good game, but I do love it feels I'm getting excited since I can't root for the commanders doing anything special this year. I am finding myself just rooting more and more for the expectation for Dallas Cowboys fans to get higher and higher and higher and then end in ultimate heartbreak. But hold on a second. You just said the same team is last year.

Dak Prescott's playing way better than last year. He is better than last year. He is playing out of his mind. Like and I know he probably won't win the MVP because the MVP is going to go to the one seed. They'd have to jump the Eagles. Jalen Hertz also playing very good football. I'm just saying, Dak Prescott, I mean, he's playing phenomenal phenomenal football. Hank, you're a Cowboys fan. I saw your friend is a Cowboys fan.

Yep. Tiff. Shout out to Tiff. Dak is awesome right now. Like, there's just no way to, like, that's just what he's taking care of the football. Last year he had, he finished the season. I know he was injured for a few games, but he finished season 23 touchdowns, 15 interceptions this season through week 13.

He's 23 touchdowns, six interceptions. He's having an awesome, awesome year. And he's up there for MVP if they could figure out a way. I mean, it's all, it all sets up now because if the Niners could somehow beat the Eagles on Sunday, next week becomes a colossal game between the Eagles and Cowboys. We're gonna find out how many points the bank is worth. That's what we're gonna find out.

It's, but yeah, the Cowboys, like offense is humming, they have so many weapons, it feels like they finally, like last year, a couple of years ago, like it felt like they didn't have the complementary weapons. You know, now Brandon Cooks, Brandon Cooks is back. I also think a couple of years ago, they were in this pattern where they had to run Ezekiel Elliott more than they should have.

Yeah, because Jerry was paying him so much money, and Jerry's like, hey, this is my star running back, let's give him the ball. And it became pretty clear at least last year that Pollard was a better option for him at running back when he was in the ball and it became pretty clear at least last year that Pollard was a better option for him at running back when he was in the game. Yeah. So they were like forcing the ball to his equal.

Now they don't have to worry about that anymore. They're wide receivers are dynamic. They've got a good tight end. Yeah. Jake Ferguson is awesome. He was a beast tonight. The sea ox middle of their defense was just getting gashed. And so I do want to talk about the sea ox in a second.

The one thing that would make me nervous and maybe you can just say hey that was a little off night weird weird setup their defense the cowboys defense which they have been you know that has been the thing that they've been resting on for a couple of years now did not look great tonight and it was against you know if you want to look through the cowboys season you could make the fraud case and the fact that they have really kicked the shit out of some bad teams and some bad quarterbacks and when they face good quarterbacks, their defense does not look the same. I mean, that did happen tonight. I mean, you know how to good night.

I'm not making the fraud case against the Cowboys. I think the Cowboys are a great team. They're one of the teams that could win the Super Bowl right now. I'm just saying, like, I'm putting a lot of my, my, uh, sweat equity and my mental well-being in the fact that I'm, I'm just imagining a world where they have a very heartbreaking and other stuff. Oh, that will most likely happen. I'm just, it's just, this is, the Cowboys feel different this year, just in the fact that Dak Prescott is playing a lot better and he has to prove it still But he is playing better than he was last year and it doesn't it feels like you know if he can keep elevating his game

Who knows max you're shaking your head. This is you you blame this loss on me Yeah, I mean you changed the whole vibes of the game but that's right I told him he had to come in the gambling cave because we were watching the game in the gambling cave and we would just hear max For people who think that max is doing a stick. It's not because he was sitting in the editor's bay Where guys were working and we would hear him from around the corner just screaming like that's a flag and shit like that So I was like, hey, you got to come sit in the gambling cave and then the I don't think the see ox scored again Where they don't think they see.O.X. score again. Where they were the C.O.X. winning when you did that. Yeah. Yeah. And I don't think there was a positive play for the

no, I don't think so. Damn. That's so met messed up. You did that. Well, and then Big Cat tried to give me the whole he's like, Oh, so you think that that really affected the game by you sitting by you sitting in here rather than sitting out there. And then I actually defended you, Hank Hank and I was like, yeah, no, it didn't you freak out and hang for pulling. No, I said he goes. I was.

Obviously it affected the game. I agree with you. No, that's not what you do. Yes, I do, but no, but I would I know that it did and then I asked Taylor LeWan who was sitting there was like, did you ever when you were playing in the NFL, were you ever like, man, it feels like someone switched their position on the couch right now. Max, what that rep was bad. Max, so yeah, did someone just, it feels like someone switched their position on the couch right now. Max, you know what that rep was bad. Max, so bad.

Yeah, did someone just put on their lucky underwear? What the fuck just happened? It affected the game. Yeah, it affected the game. Yeah, it affected the game. The Seahawks are in trouble. I played well tonight. And like, that was like, it felt like this was their kind of, like, hey, this is our last

stand. We got a, this is our best effort. I don't know that they're in trouble. This might be a moral loss for the Seahawks. Well, no, they're in trouble. They're in trouble in the fact that they, a statement lost for them. They, they have to play their next two games against the Niners and the Eagles and they, they can't keep losing and make the playoffs. I think with tonight's win games, the playoffs, with tonight's game proved more than anything, is that Thursday night football whoops ass as long as the teams that are playing, also played on a Thursday the week beforehand.

And if the refs decide to throw a thousand flags to make sure every offensive possession gets all the way to a touchdown. There were tons of flags today, but there was some good offensive football that was played. There was DK had a hell of a game. Incredible. When he caught that first pass and took off and they said that he reached a speed of like

22.6 something miles per hour. Yeah. Maybe it's no 22.2 miles per hour, which is 0.2 miles per hour faster than Tyree Kill has been with the ball that's here. And for DK to be faster than Tyree Kill, despite the fact that he outweighs him by what? Do you think 50 pounds is insane? It's insane that that's the fastest dude in the NFL. He was little boy to Ron Blint. He was. Yeah, Dr. Blint got sign language in sign language as well. Yeah, no signs. I don't know. No,

I mean, Roger Del will probably be like, that's a gang sign. I'm going to find you. We learn sign language. Yeah, which is pretty cool. If you're gonna learn sign language to talk shit on your opponent, I respect that. You see, Oxford in trouble though. You gotta learn it. There's six and six, and they have to play the Eagles and the Niners.

Yeah, not a great couple games coming. Anything could happen though. Anything could happen. They could, they did feel like this was like, hey, we're gonna put everything into this game. We gotta win this game. We can't keep losing these games. There are three game losing streak.

So yeah, it feels like it could, it could spiral a little more. Having to go to app 49ers next week. Yeah, I could see that. But also like the sea hawks, they find a way to win weird games. They do. They can drag you into the mud and make you play a really strange game. They can beat you. Yeah, I don't know I was not impressed. I was not impressed with that play call at the end

Uh, would they try to run the screen on fourth down? Well, they just didn't block the one guy you have to block Yeah, like micro Parsons. Let's see you you have to I don't actually run a play where it's like Hey, we're not gonna block anyone else except micro Parsons And it might work. Yeah, I think in theory a screen could work if you're just banking on them sending everybody at you And then you could get a big chuck of yardage off that screenplay the problem with running a screen there is that Micro Parsons is faster than almost every single other edge defender in the NFL Yeah, so if you don't even chip them or get in his way make him like take a half step to the outside He's going to get in Geno's face. Yes. Yeah. That was a sad way to end the game. Anything else before we get to week 13. Oh, thank you to everyone

Spotify wrapped. That's always cool. I mean, it's always like crazy to see how much time people spend with us because we're fucking idiots. There was some insane numbers this year. Yeah. Yeah. Everyone that everyone there. Appreciate everyone. And even if you're not listening, I'm Spotify.

It blows my mind to think about it. Thank you to everybody. Every year, we know Spotify rap is coming

and every year I'm like, oh my God, like this is crazy. That's a lot of it. I think maybe one of the good things about this show is that at the end of the day, it does still feel like our lives haven't changed that much. It feels like we're just sitting with our friends and talking. So when we have these moments where it's like,

oh shit, the numbers are that big. It's always like, damn, 100 countries. Like you could tell me no one's listening to this show. I'd be like, I'll keep doing it. 100 countries? Yeah. 100 countries? What was the craziest country?

They're not sending us. No. It was an email because if it was I did not read it Hank's been sending off a lot of emails recently You're the email king of this office Someone stole some golf clubs. Oh, no Whoa, Hank sent a email being like we're about to go through the tapes.

I know. I just don't, because now we're putting the word teen in there and that sounds a whole lot like week 18. Yeah, we're in the teens now. Okay, so Sunday feels like we have a little bit, not the best sleep, but the Eagles 49ers game which we'll get to is definitely the crown jewel of this weekend. I like that, the crown jewel. The crown jewel, you like that?

That's gonna be the game that everyone's gonna be focused on the afternoon. Yeah, the crown jewel of the weekend. We will live stream it, Max, you got any flights or anything? He's not on. How's the foot, Max? Foot's good, I will be here. Okay, great.

Yeah, great, ready to roll. All right, so let's get into the Sunday slate. Let's start. I ordered them in how I thought, what are you gonna say, Hank? You say anything? I ordered them in the games that I thought were the most appealing and again, it's not like the most appealing slate

to start, but that's okay, because that's usually chaos. Lions at Saints. Lions at Saints. Dan Campbell said he's not gonna just yell louder. They're gonna have a plan. I think he should have a new plan and also yell louder at his team. Hmm.

Okay. That's to both worlds. I, uh, yeah, this, this is going to be a true test to the Lions. They're, I feel like they're at a crossroads because they've had two bad games. The Bears was a bad game, even though they won and the Packers was a bad game on Thanksgiving. Are they a real team in the NFC? Can they go down and beat the saints who are very injured? Uh, I think it's Michael Thomas's out. A lavas in the concussion protocol.

She chees. She chees. He's got a thigh injury. Cam Jordan is banged up. March, March on Latin. More is out. Wait, you say Michael Thomas is out. Michael Thomas is out. Shut the fuck up. Never believe it. We also have a little, uh, uh, discord, discord. Discord, we have discord. Discord? No, discord. Acrimony is discord. Is it discord?

There can be discord. Discord is like a conversation. Discord is bad. Discord is bad. We've got some, I know it's actually a website, Hank, it's an application. Discord.

Boomer. I mean, you could type in discord.com, is that not a website? Well, you shouldn't be typing any websites right now, Mr. Hacked discourse written or spoken communication or debate. Yeah, but what about discord? Yeah, there can be discord. Yes. Is that mean it's bad, right? Discord. Disagreement between people. Correct. Yes. Okay. So he okay. So the Saints have some discord. Happy we got that cleared up. Alvin Camera after Sunday's game said the offense of the

offense for the Saints doesn't have an identity. And then Dennis Allen said on Monday, I think we have explosive players on offense. I think we prove we can be explosive on offense, essentially saying the offense is explosive. They're 19th and scoring. So they do have explosive players, but that seems to also imply that they don't have an identity. If you answer, do you have an identity by saying, well, parts of our team have an identity? Yeah. That means you don't have an identity. Right. It's like, we've got good, we've got good parts, but the whole thing. Right. If you look at it, you just don't know what we do. Do you have a car? Well, I have a tire. Yeah, I've got a lot of, I've got a, I got a seat and

a seat belt. I've got a lot of gas. Yeah. Do you have a car though? No, you do not have a car. They don't, well, they do have a car actually. Yeah, they do. Yep, that's true. But when you look at the Saints and this division as a whole, the NFC South, I have a prediction about this division. Okay. We're gonna see, whoever wins the NFC South

will not fire their coach going into next season. Agreed. Every other team will. Okay, so we already have the Panthers. We got the Panthers, they're out. Saints, they're gonna fire South. Okay, so we already have the Panthers. We got the Panthers. They're out. Saints, they're gonna fire out. Yeah, no, that's what you're right.

The Bucks should fire. Todd Bulls. Todd Bulls, if they don't make it, Top 10 Coach on the hunt out there. And then the Falcons probably, I think that they might fire Earthen's. I'm not saying that they should. Well, they're gonna win the NFC.

They are gonna win, but if they don't, actually, I'm not gonna entertain hypotheticals. I like that thought though, because I think you're right. But it also makes for, I think, hopefully better football from every team in that very sad division going down the stretch, because every coach, we can say the entire NFC South is coaching for the job. I would, it actually be fun if like,

if divisions did like league meetings, like all the NFC South got together and like, hey guys, we gotta be better. Yeah, that's a joke. Any agar does that. Yeah, that's right. She does. Yeah, she does. Okay. Yeah, I like the lines this game mostly because the Saints Rush defense is kind of falling off a cliff. They've been getting gashed 228 yards last week against the Falcons. I feel like the Lions might with Jared's mini slump They might be like hey, let's just run the ball down their throat and then we'll just do play action

and then we'll win the game. I would like to see the Lions win this by double digits. Yeah, because I really would. I really would. With all the injuries that we've listed and Alvin Comar saying, we don't have an identity. I just don't know. The Lions defense is bad, but the Saints offense is worse. So it's like, you should be able to stop them. They don't have a ton of guys that can beat you. I actually agree 100% that they don't have an identity.

Right. When you, when everyone on the team seems to like the backup quarterback more than the starting quarterback, that is an issue. That's what it feels like. So I went back, there was an alternate angle of ludicrous repelling from the ceiling, landing at the 50 yard line, which again, ludicrous, it feels weird to say that he's underrated, but I feel like ludicrous has gotten more underrated in the last like five years. I agree. But he was, yeah, he's the best. So he's, he's repelling down, sing and move bitch.

And then James Winston is again, all up in Derek Carr's face, like sing and move bitch to him. I think he was doing it to hype up Derek Carr, but also at the same time, when you're back up quarterback is telling your starting quarterback, move bitch, repeatedly, the starting quarterback starts to interpret that in a different way. James has never been a read the room guy. No, that's not his strength.

Really read anything. Read a linebacker. No, it's not like getting the temperature of a room and being like, hey, I shouldn't do this. Shouldn't eat a W. Shouldn't stand up on the table, say, fuck him right in the pussy, that kind of stuff. Yeah't need to W. Shouldn't stand up on the table, say, fuck him right in the pussy.

That kind of stuff. Yeah, fuck her. Fuck her right in the pussy. Yeah, so, okay. Maybe, yeah, read the room like he's never even read a stadium before he went out dressed in his pads before a game. Exactly, which is like, hey, Jamie's your suspended. That's why we love him.

Yeah, that's why we love Jamie. That's exactly where we love him. It was a great clip though. It was a great clip. It, it to me, surpassed Drew Locke, wrapping to Yeezy. Yes. It was Yeezy on the, rapping to Yeezy. Yes. It was Yeezy on the sideline. Yeezy.

Uh, okay, nerd nugget. The Lions have produced at least 325 net yards in all 11 games this season for the first time in team history. No other team has an active streak or more than five games with 325. King the banner. Okay. Good job Lions. Yards.

Yards. Yards. Yards. Kings, but we got a lot of yards That's like a great name for a mower. Yeah, the yard king or like a good giveaway to minor league park Yeah, be the yard king. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, you get to come down We're gonna do the yard king giveaway like right behind home plate and you wear a crown And a drone and a lawn chair. Yeah, no like a lawn chair that's got jewels and shit on it The yard king. I'm the yard king. Yeah, this is a van a bananas are definitely a steal that from chair. Yeah, no, like a lawn chair that's got jewels and shit on it. The art king. I'm the art king. Yeah. This is Van Abenanas or Devin Nistila from us. Uh, okay. Broncos of Texans. Good game. I say,

organ game. I say great game. Yeah. I say this might be the crown jewel of the morning. Oh, so it's an important game. The Broncos, uh, if they win on Sunday, have a 64% chance of making the playoffs, which is wild to say given where they were at the end of September. If they lose, they go down to 21% and the Texans similar, 54% if they win 18% if they lose, it's a loser leaves town game. The loser of this game will be under 25% chance to make the playoffs. I'd say loser moves to the suburbs. Yeah. They can still get back in if they want because I looked at the Bronco schedule.

It's not the easiest thing in the world, but if they lost this game, I could still see them when I think they're probably gonna lose one more at least. And things can shake out differently, obviously, over the course of the last few weeks. But I don't, yeah, I don't think that the Broncos are totally out of it.

They've won what five in a row right now. Five in a row. Five in a row since October 22nd, they've beaten the Packers chiefs bills Vikings and Browns I'm gonna put an asterisk on the Browns win too because that was that wasn't a real football team that we saw last week after DTR got hurt Yeah, so so you brought up those teams and that was that was my What I'm thinking about this game so the Broncos have righted the ship. They've looked a lot better They've also been getting a shitload of turnover.

16 turnovers in the last five games in that stretch. And I was thinking about it. I was like, huh, I wonder how turnover prone those teams that they beat. So the Browns Vikings, Bill's chiefs are all at the bottom of the league in terms of giving up the football. They have the most turnovers. And the Browns and Vikings are actually the worst and second to worse. Okay. So they had a string of games where they played teams that are careless with the football. They were able to greatly, you know, benefit from

that. The Texans on the other hand are pretty good with the football. So you just try to obviously started his season without, you know, any turnovers for the first, whatever it was, six, seven games. That's kind of why I like the Texas. I feel like the Broncos have, it's been very nice. But when the fumbles and the picks stop is like, okay, do they have the offense to like get these sustained drives? Do they, can they do it when it's not a, you know, start the drive at the 50 start the drive at the opponents 40?

Let me ask you a question though, Big Cat. Let's take it one layer deeper on that analysis. Are those teams ranked as being so careless with a football because they've played the grounds and the Browns took away the football from them? No, the Broncos. Broncos. Yes. Broncos took away. Well, that's part of them, but they also, like, they also have a lot of turnover. Yeah. My home's had a bunch of turnovers. And the Vikings have had a lot of turnovers. The Browns have had a lot of turnovers, like in other games. So they, I mean, the Browns, their quarterback situation has have had a lot of turnovers. The the Browns have had a lot of turnovers like in other games. So they, I mean, the Browns, their quarterback situation has led to a lot of turnovers.

Right. So the, the Broncos defense in addition to the turnovers are also averaging giving up just 16 points a game in the last five weeks. Yeah. So they're from 36 to 16. They're legitimately good. There's no tank Delphur Houston this weekend. And yeah, so I kind of like the Broncos. I know I like CJ Stroud, we are Stroud boys, but I feel like, I don't know, the Broncos, if the Broncos win this game, I'm gonna get reckless when my Broncos takes. And I've been already like, I've been hitting the median

a little bit, I'm gonna go fully off the road with my Bronco. The nice thing about this game is I don't really have like a rooting interest in either. I like both teams kind of. You know what I mean? If either of these teams made it to playoffs, I'd be like, that's fun. I want like the Broncos would be a fun story,

Russell Wilson, you know, putting it all back together. So you know, Strauss obviously been one of the best stories of this year. So I think I'm okay with either team winning. It's not one team that I'm like, I don't want to see this team in the playoffs. I think that what we might have here is a coach of the year, Bull.

Mm. Maybe the winner of this game. Shane Steichen though, still. Shane Steichen. It's one of my votes. I don't like Tom Lee. I'm gonna win for coach of the year. You don't think so.

He should win come back coach of the year. Come back coach of the year from the beginning of the year. For how he started. Yeah. And also coming back. Yes, that's it. So the Texans have never beaten Russell Wilson. I've just put, I've got one thing

that I'm gonna say about each game where I'm trying to steal Jake's dirt nugget. I love it. I've been doing that too, but it's great. Was that a Jake? No, I mean, you guys were close about the turnovers, but I have a little extra sprinkle. All right, go ahead, give us a sprinkle.

So the Broncos are now number one in the NFL and takeaways. And their best turnover differential is right now plus eight since 2005. They're plus 20. See, I'm saying fumble luck. Ball luck. This is the whole town. You got to try to, you got to try to time it.

We talked about that Hank. Remember the season that Hank did not like that. Hank doesn't believe in luck. Turn over luck. Turn over luck is a real thing. You don't believe in weather. Turn over luck. Turn over luck is a real thing. You don't believe in weather. No, the ball bounces like there's times when the ball will bounce. It's like, oh, it went right into someone else's hands or it didn't like there is a there's an element of luck that comes into turnovers. Tip balls. Yeah. If there's like a cornerback that

tries to make an interception and he should and it bounces off his hands and we're like, that's where he plays defense. Most cornerbacks would make that pick. You know, like there's elements of... There's small, but it's not like a data point. I think it is a very definition of a data point. Yeah. I think it's a small sample size.

Everyone kind of regresses to the mean where it's like there's certain turnover plays that, okay, that was expected to be a turnover. But like, you could have a team that just recovers all their fumbles. I can understand why Hank doesn't believe in turnover luck because when Mac Jones throws interception, he throws a fucking interception. That's true. Like there's no luck at all. That's actually, it's turnover skill.

And Mac Jones is very good at it. It is. Okay. Next game, Colts of Titans. Jonathan Taylor's out. That sucks. Thumb injury. It feels like a, a Mike Vrable game.

I know. Will Levison home has been good. It does feel like a Mike Vrable game. It feels like a Vrable special right now. What uniforms are they wearing? Are they, they're not, they're not doing their throwback skin. Are they? The Titans?

No, I don't think so. Okay. I'm gonna guess that they're gonna wear, um, some combination of blue, gray, and like, slightly a color that's in between gray and blue. I think I guess that they're gonna wear some combination of blue, gray, and like slightly a color that's in between gray and blue. I like the Titans uniforms in general. You do? Yeah.

No, I disagree. Yeah, I kinda like them. I think they're fine. I don't think there's anything Sunday, Titans uniform, Sunday. They're like the uniform equivalent of ambient music where you're just like a study. It's just kind of stuff like create a player on a 2K. It's like create a player on. Yeah, it's like 2k. It's like rain listening to rain drops in your headphones. Yeah. All right, well, I guess I can't find I was going to just basically base this

all off of the uniforms. But yeah, I like the Titans in this game. I did sure. This I mean, if the cults can win, they're they are right now, the 7th seed. Menshu on the road is an issue. That is a I always remind myself of that. Menshu on the road is an issue. That is a fact. I always remind myself of that. Menshu on the road. Yeah, all I'm seeing is can the Titans please wear the throwbacks again? Fair.

Fair. It's a fair request. Yeah, it's a fair request. And listen, our gripe is not with the Titans wearing those uniforms because the uniforms are bad. And we understand how teams work when they move cities, but you can't, I don't like the idea of going back and wearing a Houston Oilers jersey, especially when you're playing against Houston Texans.

Right, right. All right, Nerdnugget for this game. Titans running back to Eric Henry has great success against the Colts and his 14 games against the Division rivals. He has 7-100 yard Russian performances. Yep, this is Mike Frabel, Derekry game. That's what I'm predicting that Okay All right next game up cardinals and Steelers can he pick it unlocked here? We go

I didn't realize how funny the Matt Canada stats were the fact that The last game that Matt Canada was not the offensive coordinator for the Steelers was when they lost the Browns and the playoffs and the Steelers had 523 yards of offense and then they went two and a half years without getting over 400 yards and then the very first game that Matt Canada was not the OC. They went over 400 yards. Yeah, it's insane. Like how is that? was that? I just don't even understand it. I don't get it. That's how bad he was like it's insane. Like how is that, was that, I just don't even understand it. I don't get it either. That's how bad he was.

Like it's actually, you can statistically look at it. Really good offense, offensive output. Two and a half years where they couldn't get over 400 yards. He leaves 400 yards. Yeah, it's just funny to me that Mike Tomlin kind of took on the Rooney's mentality with his own coordinator. Yeah, where he was like, yeah,

we like continuity here. Continuity sucks when the person that you're keeping continuity with is garbage. Yeah. That's actually a downside to continuity. Yes. But then again, maybe Tom would talk to himself like if I start firing people, maybe the Rooney's don't even think that you can fire coaches. Yeah.

And so if I start firing them, they'll be like, wait, we can do this. This, we didn't know this button was here. I mean, I'm going to press the button. Yeah. Acts. But yeah, it is very funny to see the offense. Look, they looked like a real NFL offense last week through in the middle of the field. Have a fireman season. Firemuth, I wonder what Deontay Johnson's going to be.

Is this going to be a Deontay Johnson works as a ass off this week to try to get rid of the film from last week? Our Steelers insider Jersey Jerry said that TJ Wad had a player's only meeting that he called to hold people accountable. Well, I heard that there was a fight that was going on. Actually, another one from Adam Schefter. There was a fight that was going on, Mink of its Patrick and somebody else in the locker room

were upset and then TJ Wad stepped in and he goes, Hey guys, we all need to be a team. Let's cut this out. There's an exclusive report from Adam Schefter. I like it. I saw that and then he marched straight into the workout room and started doing squats. we all need to be a team. Let's cut this out. Is it an exclusive report from Adam Schefftrow? I like it. And then he marched straight into the workout room and started doing squats.

He gave them some, what is that, what do they do? The taco seasoning? What's the... El Paso? El Paso, that's it. Here, take some El Paso. Do you remember that report from Schefftrow a couple of years ago?

Yeah, he was talking about his contract. And he marched straight into Mr. Rooney's office. Yeah. Said, let's get this done and then went right to the weight room. Yeah. So the best when chapter tweets Just strictly from the age I love TJ. What in chefter's brain is like an 80s movie character That's hey, he's how he long we all need to listen to coach. Yeah, okay. Let's get on the same page coaches right guys

Yeah, we yeah, who's the cheesiest? Not the commercial. It's always stuck our head. Yeah, what's cheesiest? Uh Yeah, the Cardinals are bad Who do you. Yeah, well, it's easy. Uh, yeah, the Cardinals are bad. Who do you think JJ is rooting for in this matchup? Steelers He's got a root for the Steelers. So Chance that he comes back. Yeah, he was he was talking about it. I think on McAfee that he was working out with the guys He did he did the eyeball emoji

Maybe before last week's game or the week before game eyeball emoji, maybe before last week's game or the week before game. And I think it was last week's game actually, in Houston. How would he lock? He like, quote tweeted something and did the eyeball emoji. And then people were like, oh shit, is JJ walk coming back to the Texans. I think he was just like the captain,

the honorary captain. You got it. That would be cool though. It would be cool. He came back for just the playoffs. I would love to see JJ want play for the Steelers in the playoffs. No, I'm saying for the Texans. I think he's saying either on Macvieve

that he was working out with the Texans. Either one for the Steelers, that would make sense. Yeah, the Steelers would be awesome. I like the Steelers in this game, even though it's stupid to take Mike Tomlin as a favorite of five and a half points or whatever it is. I just don't, the Cardinals defense bad. They're very bad. James Connor revenge game. They're going to run the ball down their throat. One note about this one, Zach Irts got released today as reported by insider

JJ. Why? Yeah. So Zach Irts released from the Cardinals max. Congratulations dream team. Dallas got it out with a broken forearm. Everyone's saying that he wants to sign with a contender. Congrats on getting Zach Erts back. Let me be the first to report exclusively on part my take that the Philadelphia Eagles have signed Zach Erts. Uh, Dallas got Erts is going to be coming back soon so that might not be the case. He said he was trying to play this week, but I don't think you will. Okay, but you don't want Zach Erts then. I do want Zach Erts. Julia Erts is husband.

I do want Juliaer. It's Julia Earth's husband. I do want Julia Earth's husband. But this whole thing that gotter might be out one maybe two more weeks. You can bring Earth's in, but I don't think he's gonna be like a difference maker. You don't think Earth's gonna be a difference maker. Tramac pride is really good. That's why, that's why it's happening.

Tramac pride's good. Yeah, for the Cardinals. Yeah, no, I mean Zach Zach Hertz is a Philly legend, but we don't need Zach Hertz right now. Wow, not a difference made from your back on the family. I'm not turning my back on no family. It sounds like you kind of are. I'm not turning my back on the family.

I want Frank Reich, I was just telling you that. Give me Frank Reich. You want Frank Reich over Zach Hertz. That's for me to bring back, yeah. No, that's not bad family. It's bad family. That's family that I want to call. No, that's not bad family. It's bad family. That's family going on a cold. Bad hecko, he's got that panther stink off.

That's family, you just let the panther stink. You let the text just sit there, and you don't respond to it, because I don't want to fucking you. Max is just arguing like a six-year-old right now. That's not true. I'm not arguing. No, this doesn't need to be an argument.

You just asked me my opinion, and I gave you my opinion. It's a bad opinion. To each their own. To each their own. Okay. Nerd nugget for Cardinal Steelers. The Steelers have 124 regular season victories against the NFC since the 1970 merger, which is the most among AFC teams. Wow. Almost as much as Lamar Jackson. That's wild. That is wild. Superborematch too. Yes. These two teams don't like each other very much. Throughout the record. John Madden's last game.

Was it really? Yeah, what an ad. Oh, I didn't know that. Yeah, I'm pretty sure that was John Madden's. The Santanya Holmes game. I'm pretty sure that was. You can fact check me. I'll look.

Pretty sure that was John Madden's last game. Yeah, I've told the story a million times. But one of my buddies decided to drink an entire bottle of malignant and I missed the run back. Oh, no. He's just puking in my house. Were you holding his hair back? No, he was, he disappeared.

He started, he's like, I'm gonna try to drink this whole bottle of malignant and then he disappeared and then I found him in my room, he had puked in my room and it was just like the worst thing. That's bad. That was a great thing. It smelled like, it was a basement apartment too. It was just, oh, so bad. It was a great run back. I just, I missed the run back. Larry Fitzger it smelled like it was a it was a basement apartment. It was just oh so bad

It's a great run back. I just I missed the run back Larry Fitzgerald never gets the credit for it But now one of the all-time hustle plays on his part. Oh, is this the year where they did the split Madden cover right after the Super Bowl Paul and Molo and Fitzgerald. Oh, they might have I'm not sure what year that was I think it was mad intense So it would make sense. Yeah, that does make sense. Okay, next up, wait, did you do the nerd nugget? Yeah, most ones against AFC. Yes, that's right. And I see it for AFC teams. We had considered putting an entire bottle of maloort

in the room with Max and Hank. Oh yeah, they're live stream. They're live stream. Next Wednesday, we're gonna do it. So everyone, this is the Mount Rushmore punishment. Max and Hank will be live for 24 hours, starting Wednesday night at 9 p.m. Central. Part of my take YouTube, part of my take YouTube, we have some things planned for them.

They can sleep a little bit overnight if they want to. We will stay live. So tune in. It's going to be. We're also looking for someone who could maybe purn, not maybe who could burn PFT's hair. Yes. And give him a tattoo.

And give him a tattoo. So anyone in the Chicago area who knows someone that would like to come into the office, please reach out to do. That can do purms and tattoos. And tattoos. Preferably the same person. Yeah, that would be great. But no, ideally different people for both those tasks.

Loki, I'm going to get kind of a glow up on this one. Yeah, you're going to see. It's like, you're going to see. You're going to see. Yeah, you're gonna make over PFT. It's gonna be great though And we're also it's good. I don't play it on sleeping. It's gonna be brought to you by cell cell blue Because we're gonna have a gold mug that day too, so I'm excited. Get excited. Oh, yeah, what's the email again Jake? PMT intern at barstool sports comm Okay dolphins of commanders Uh, okay, dolphins and commanders. TFT, I'm sorry.

Yeah, I'm very sorry. This is going to be a chick pumping, chick kicking. No two ways about it. I think that the dolphins are going to hang a million points on us. So, uh, I just don't want to give up as many points as the Broncos. As long as we don't set any NFL records, but they're going to put up a bunch. Did you see what the dolphins do on defense? They don't have a turnover chain.

They don't have like a turnover plank or anything, but they have a turnover cake. What? So every player on the dolphins defense, they get to turnover, they get a cake later on the week. Oh, that's awesome. It's awesome. Yeah, so the guy was at Holland that ran back to Holland.

Yeah, he got a turnover cake this week. Love it. It's a great, great, like, means to motivate your players on defense. It's like, okay, either you can wear a chain around your neck for 30 seconds on the sideline, or you get a full dessert. Yeah. That's awesome.

Also, Michael Dales has had quite a week. He, did you see the clip he got hit in the nuts on the sideline? He was, he was hanging on for dear life. I, my heart goes out to him for that moment. But he also had to correct Al Michaels report that he stole his players girl friend and made him made it his wife. Okay. Yeah. So Al Michaels told the story on black Friday that they were Mike McDaniels. They were at like some team function. And then this girl was with one of the players and he told the player like, I'll take it from here otherwise you're cut.

It wasn't exactly like that, but he had to come out and correct out Michaels for that. But yeah, that's a very funny story to get wrong. Yeah, he said that they had just met like 45 seconds before. So it wasn't like he's still someone else's girlfriend. Gotcha. But still, very funny to have to come out and say, hey, I want to just correct one thing the mother of my Children my wife of many years. I didn't steal her. Yeah Good for my big day for like having people believe that for a week. Yeah, it's kind of a baller move

Yeah, I'm I'm not optimistic as you can tell about the commanders this weekend is feels like a game that The dolphins use is just like target practice like let's go out there and let's open up the playbook try a bunch of weird shit is just like target practice. Like let's go out there and let's open up the playbook, try a bunch of weird shit, see if we can get our defense right. I'm personally hoping for good things from the commander's office. I would like to see us put up some points. I'd like to see Sam how continue not taking sacks,

continue being a good quarterback. And he's thrown for a million yards this year. I think he has the most yards of any quarterback in the NFL. Who? He's asking him to drop back a lot. And he's he's shown a lot of promise. I'm still committed to Sam Howe, but I just, I don't have good thoughts

or feelings or vibes at all. Yeah, but this could be one of those games that like, usually when you go in expecting the worst, maybe something good happens. Yeah, it could be. Yeah, that's a, that's a good way to put it. And I am very dumb with my football analysis. So there's a chance I'm wrong about this too. I would love could be. Yeah, that's a, that's a good way to put it. Um, and I am very dumb with my football analysis. So there's a chance I'm wrong about this too. I would love

to be wrong about this. But we don't even really get an interim bump from our defense coordinator Jack Del Rio being fired, which kind of sucks. Cause now it's just like, okay, Ron Rivera is going to be right defensive coordinator. So you don't have like, it's not that much of a change of scenery on the defense. I would like, would have loved to have Revere get fired, but Revere kind of did Del Rio a solid though. Yeah.

Like hey, I'll just do all the work that you're doing. You're gonna get paid. Yeah, just get out of here, man. Just leave. Scram. You don't have to drive to Land Over Maryland every weekend good for you. You don't have to worry about not showering after a game

because we don't have any water in the locker room. Yeah, it actually was, it probably like, he brought us like, thanks, man. Yeah, I can go home for Christmas. So all I want for the rest of the season is for Sam Howe to continue to be good enough to make the commanders an attractive head coaching destination.

Yeah, and not get sacked. That's all I want. And stay healthy, stay healthy, and be good enough to the point where Bella checks like, okay, I can take, I can win with this. I think that's a reasonable goal. Yeah, I like that. All right, Jake, your nerd nugget.

A win on Sunday would improve Miami's record to 93 this season, something that dolphins haven't accomplished since 2001. Head coach Mike Winkdang, I would also lock up another winning season. He'd be the third head coach in Dolphin's history to have a winning record in each of his first two seasons, joining Don Shula and Dave wants that. Wow. Okay. That must be nice.

All right. I saw a very depressing stat the other day about the commanders and how historically bad they've been through November over the last 23 years. I think their best record was one year when they had, I think, seven wins going into November and we missed the playoffs. Every other season has been like three wins, four wins, five wins, three wins, three wins, four wins, three wins. It's, November, this time of year, it's just generally not a good time.

It's one team's start playing real football. Yeah, we bow out. Bellicic said that. He said the season doesn't start till Thanksgiving, right? Well, charges of Patriots. Yes. The season finally starts. Season has begun. I hope we lose.

Okay. A couple of fun facts for you, Hank. This is, so the last time the Patriots were underdogs against an under 500 team at home was the game that Drew Bud but so got knocked out. Wow. Started it started as a underdog finished as a minus one and a half favorite against the jets, but that's how long it's been.

They are five and a half point underdogs, I believe, to the chargers, which I the Patriots are really bad. Really bad. They're really bad. Horrible. Mac Jones is really bad. I think Zappy is happy is happy is also really Mac Jones is running scout team this week. Okay. With all that said and they're really really bad. Maybe worse team. I Don't know how you could bet the chargers minus five and a half on the road because the chargers love to not

Like win games that they should win convincingly. Yeah, Brandon Staley might be motivated to beat the guy who could potentially take his job, though. I guess, but like, could you, would you ever, like, I don't know if I take the chargers minus five and a half against a college team on the road, just, just at a principal. Just the logo, the colors, the history, they'll be like, oh, they'll probably win by three. But you know how bad the Patriots are right now? The Patriots are so bad that they got flexed out of Monday night football. It was going to be the Patriots. First ever. It was going to be the Patriots.

The Patriots. The Flexagami. It was going to be the Patriots and the Charger, or excuse me, the Patriots and the Chiefs. And ESPN said, you know what? The Patriots are so bad that we don't want Taylor Swift's boyfriend to be playing in this game. That's how bad we think the ratings are going to be for the Patriots are so bad that we don't want Taylor Swift's boyfriend to be playing in this game. That's how bad we think the ratings are going to be for the Patriots. That's an awesome. That's an awesome. I'm never.

They're not wrong. I'm honestly I'm happy. Yeah, no, you should be happy. Fun Chargers stat 61 career starts for Justin Herbert. 1,526 points scored 1,542 points allowed. Pretty damn close. Yeah, well just a couple of weeks ago, it was dead even, right?

It was dead even, yeah. And so updating it, I wanted to stay dead even. They have what, one more loss, then then? Yeah, with him as a starting quarterback, so by the system, they win this game. And I think it's like something crazy, like 20 of the last 29 chargers games have been decided by a touchdown or less,

which leads me to my point of like, how could you bet the chargers? I know that you, the patrons are so, so bad. This is a game you should not bet. I'm probably still going to bet it, but you should not bet. To Hank's point, Bailey's Abbey hasn't really started though. This could be a coming up. All right, so Hank's going to take a turn. Or history repeats itself.

And last time this happened where there was this much of home dog, drew blood so it got hurt. Tom Brady stepped in, right? So you're starting quarterback Bailey's happy gets hurt. You're back up, Mac Joe steps in and then he becomes the guy. Yes, this is the start of the DVD. Love it, Hank. Yeah, this is bad time to be a fan of either team, but to Hank's point earlier about fumble luck, turnover luck being bullshit.

The charger kind of back them up on that because they have been like exactly as we said even with point differential wins, losses, all that stuff. And they have like the worst turnover luck of all time, but it's consistent. You know, there's a bad like with the chargers, you can be consistently bad at having turnover luck, and it actually just means that you're bad. Bad, that you're bad at football. Yeah. Okay, Hank, you don't want to win.

No, okay. I think we might though. That's what I'm saying. It's just that, but I don't want to. It's like the Patriots are so bad. It has nothing to do with the Patriots, it's just the chargers. Five and a half on the road.

The lighthouse. Like who's gonna stop bringing up the lighthouse? That's crazy. It shouldn't be five and a half point favorites. There's the chargers. They're just zaster right now. They're on Quit Watch. Yeah.

Quit and Johnson got benched last week. I think the Patriots are on Quit Watch too. Oh, I think the Patriots are already quit. Because it's like, I don't think Quit Watch is lost to Tommy DeVito. Yeah, in quit watch too. I think the pages are already quit. Because it's like, I don't think quit watch watch lost the time in the video. Yeah, the quit watch happens. It's true. Like going into work every day and have Bella check,

just reading you the riot act. That's a really good thing if you're a great team and he's like motivating you to play even better to the best of your ability. But if you're a really bad team, that just makes you bummed out all the time. Yeah, yeah. You see the Gibrali Peppers clip?

No. He hugged Seikwam Barkley and was like, you're lucky out all the time. Yeah. Yeah. Did you did your burrito pepper's clip? No. Yeah. He hugged Seiko on Barclay and was like, you're lucky we ass. Oh. Yeah. Love it. You're lucky we're not better because we would have beaten you if we were better at football. We lucky we ass.

Uh, okay, Jake, you're nerd nugget. Patriots head coach Bill Belicek will coach in his 424th overall game this week. That'll move past Don Schulup for the third most games coach with one team behind George Howellis is 506 and 454 by Tom Landry. Crafts coach, Bella check winner, lose, you were third place now. Most games ever with one team. Unless they fire him before it's on day. Okay, that'd be funny. You might take the GMU job I heard.

There was a Photoshop going on. He loves DC. He does love DC. That's great. I saw a Photoshop. That's basically close to. He does love DC. That's great. I saw a Photoshop. That's basically real. That's basically anapolis. It's very close.

And to land over where he'll also be coaching the commanders. Yeah, he's gonna be a busy man. We'll dip in. Okay, Paulkins of Jets. Tim Boiles' Worson's at Wilson. Do you think so? I do think so. But he's not Zach Wilson is a thing.

I think, yeah, I know he has. I don't think he's as he's not as bad in hilarious ways as Zach Wilson is. Yeah, but in unique ways. Yeah, he's like traditionally bad at football. Yeah, I don't know. This Jets team is such a bummer. I think they're they're defense's quit watch. Obviously Aaron Rodgers back in practice.

Okay. Is he really going to play for a team that's like, because they lose this week, it's they're almost mathematically eliminated, but they are eliminated. Memes, you want him to play? Why would you want him to play behind this offensive line? I slightly got my hopes up after seeing all those videos. But why? I know why I know why the videos would make you amped up because you're like, oh, that's cool. Maybe we won't suck ass next year.

But do you really want him back this year? Why would you be amped up for that? If they win, he's mastered this offense. Well, how is he mastered this offense? This offense, he's always run. Okay. That's all I got. Okay, that was not convincing. Yeah. You you you tried you tried you tried you understand what we're saying like he's mastered

maybe like the diagrams of the plays and where to throw the ball. But the offensive line is really the point. Yeah, that like he's going to be on a recently repaired very recently repaired a kill ease. And it's not like they have the easiest schedule. Like they have to win out. Means. Yeah, which isn't happening. But what if he got hurt again? Why would you want to risk that? Yeah, so a tweet that said his other Achilles has the possibility to do the funniest thing ever. Yeah, it's true. That is very true. It would be very funny. I don't know, this game, I feel like the Falcons you have to, it's the Falcons here, but then the Falcons

also like Desmond Ritter could so easily throw three interceptions in this game. Yeah. The thing is, the big question is how many points is the Jets offense going to give up? Right. Like, the Jets offense is one of the worst defenses in the league. Yeah. Yeah. If they don't, if the Falcons score a touchdown, or even like a short field, field goal,

I'm going to say if they score a touchdown, if there's any six involved, if they score a touchdown, the Falcons are going to win. If they defense doesn't score a touchdown against the Jets offense, I still think the Falcons are going to win. So memes, are you in, you want to win this game? I'm saying if we win, I'm all the way back in. Got it. I guess five and seven is look, I mean, five and seven does look not that bad. Does he play the Texans? You play the Browns? The putt. Both of those teams are. I'm just, I'm just saying like you have,

you have a chance. But, but, but Aaron Rogers on like a recently repaired Achilles behind that offensive line against Miles Garrett and the Browns defense what shotgun Yeah, actually I didn't think a shotgun. I didn't think shotgun get rid of the ball in two seconds Yeah, I didn't think a shotgun Aaron Rogers running shotgun only is better than Tim Boyle Did what I actually agree with that Aaron Rogers with one foot in the shotgun formation is better than Tim Boyle Yes, he can just play and line up like a punter so that no one can touch him. He just like,

He just like, Double Shotgun. Just make the feel longer, but it's Aaron Rodgers. Having been 50-Cal formation? Sure. Oh, memes. When he tours Achilles,

was he in shotgun? Yeah. Oh, fuck. He was. He was. He was. Join Brown was playing though. though wait he won't be it So your day one offensive star you're that's better your offensive lines got better

Has it gotten better it's got worse. Okay. I'm trying to has the field gotten better has the met life turf Been in we're trying to find a place where we can maybe agree with something you're saying and I'm we're digging deep We just need them to lose to agree Okay, all right, all right, so they're all right, so then yes, so like lose and then it's over Yeah, losing and so but winning it's Rogers win and it's Roger This might be the worst win in New York Chats If they win this game and And then Rodgers gets in. I love this analysis.

And, but I feel like we've had this exact same conversation. Oh, we'll do the same about it. Yeah, it'll be four and eight. And then memes goes and he watches his Jets score three points on offense. Yeah, is it well, maybe next week? Yeah, maybe they win next week's Rodgers time. Young Way Koo, the kicker for the Falcons

is now the all-time most accurate kicker in the history of the NFL. Oh, because Justin Tucker's washed now. Yeah. So shout out young way coup. Jake, did I get it? No, I know you're trying to. All right. What is it? Falcons running back to John Robinson needs 62 scrimmage yards on Sunday to secure the title for having the most yards in his first 12 games of any Falcons rookie and franchise history. I think it might be beyond season. I do too. I think Arthur Smith might be, he finally might listen to all the fancy football nerds out there and say, okay, you want Bijon?

We're gonna build the entire plane out of Bijon. Go straight ahead. Yes. That word scrimmage, that's a weird word. Why do we call it the line of scrimmage? That's a good question. I've never thought about scrimmage on watching football all my life. We're I right now. No, I wish I was

a confused struggle or fight. I guess that makes sense. Oh, I didn't know that that's the scrimmage is a confused struggle or fight. That's the first definition. Oh, didn't know it. Because we always talk about scrimmage being like a practice game. Yeah, but that is where that's where to explain what happens in American football on the line of scrimmage being like a practice game. Yeah, but that is where, that's where, to explain what happens in American football on the line of scrimmage, it is a confused, struggling or fight. It is. Like if you watch it, you'd be confused what's going on. Yes.

And they're struggling and fighting. Hank has been in a scrimmage against words and reading his entire life. That's, yeah. Okay. Before we do the late games, Chevy, there's a new family with unstoppable grit and they're the official partners, the part my take family. That is the Chevy Silverado ZR2 family. The first ever Silverado heavy duty ZR2 joins the franchise to make Chevy ZR2 the

Head to Chevy.com, check out Chevy Silverado and the family of Chevy ZR2, the official trucks of Pardon My Take. We love Chevy. We are Chevy podcasts. So shout out Chevy. We appreciate you. Go check it out right now. The Chevy Silverado and the family of Chevy Silverado ZR2, the Chevy ZR2, excuse me, the official trucks apart in my take.

Tell them apart in my take, send you when you go to Chevy. Okay. Panthers a box. Frank, right gone. Frank, right gone. Chris Tabor, did you do some research on Chris Tabor? Well, he was, he coached one game for the Bears when Matt Negi had COVID.

He's a fiery guy. So the fun fact that I found about Chris, Tabor, is that he coached one game for the Bears. Yeah, that's it. That's all we know about him might be. I'm with the mind of the law second that any interim coach is better than Frank Reich right now, like just something different. Yeah, is good for the Panthers. He is a fiery guy.

He's, I kind of like a special team's coach being named interim head coach because he usually has like a pulse on like the dogs of the locker room, you know, the grinders. So I'm good with that. Also Thomas Brown, who we talked about earlier in the season because member Frank Wright gave him offensive play calling duties. They won a game, then he took it away three weeks later gave him offensive play calling duties. They won a game.

Then he took it away three weeks later. He's back calling plays. It seems like the players want him to call plays. So that might be good. And Baker may feel a little banged up. I'm talking myself into the Panthers. I don't know if you should do that. I know.

I don't know if you should do that at all. But realize what the interim head coach bump is a real thing. And the Panthers, we talked about earlier with the Raiders in their interim situation. The Panthers are actually the perfect candidate to do our theory of just putting a different interim coach in every single week. Just somebody that has a tenuous connection at best

to the Charlotte area, bringing them in, be like, okay, now it's your week because I think in this circumstance, like players will respond to just a change. Yeah, no matter what the change is. Anything different, anything different. I was also thinking about David Tepper more this week. He is a classic example of a billionaire

who is used to just having things done. Almost like the wave of a magic wand. If you're a billionaire, your life is so easy that you just say you want something and then it happens. Having a billion dollars is a magic wand. Yes. For anything.

Like, oh, I want a new plane. Okay, here's a new plane I have. And it's not even you have to do it. You should have to tell someone plane. Yeah, just be like, hey, spin my money on this so that I can do it. And then it just happens. Everything happens for you.

Once you get to a competitive sports league, you no longer have the magic wand. Correct. You can't just be like wild card. Plane. Yeah. I want bowling. Playoff appearance. It's not like that anymore.

Clean house. And Tepper is very, very confused with not having his magic wand ability work right now. Yeah. No, I agree with you. It's very fun to watch. Because he doesn't seem like the best guy. Nope. Not a guy I want to work for. No, I agree with you. It's very fun to watch because he doesn't seem like the best guy. Nope

Not a guy I want to work for you know, he he bought when he was at Goldman Sachs He didn't get a promotion and Eventually he goes off starts his own hedge fund his former boss didn't promote him. Yeah, he was so pissed off at his former boss He bought his former boss's house. Yes, I remember this in Tortown, right? Destroyed. Yes. Raised it to the ground and then built a bigger house where his former boss's house used to be. I'm a David Teppro fan now.

Yeah, I mean, I would not want him running my football team. No. However, I appreciate it when like a billionaire does cartoon billionaire shit. He definitely has had that conversation in a meeting where it's like, what if we just tear down another team's stadium? Yeah.

Yeah. Would we win the game? Yeah. What if we bribe them? Yeah. He's probably tried to bribe his opponent. We blow up someone's stadium. Would they forfeit?

Would we win? Have I found a way to a perfect season? Yeah. I was up every stadium. I need to have like, Bane. I gotta have Hard Knock, David Tepper. Oh, yeah. Maybe sick, wouldn't it?

It's gonna be the barricade, cause it's gonna be hardball. What do you mean? Like, hardball is gonna come to the bars, they're gonna need to hard knocks. Oh, the hard knocks, yeah. I mean, like, just following David Tepper. Oh, I would want to, yeah. It's entirely like, yeah, yeah, yeah.

I want to see, oh, you're saying that, yeah. I was saying, like, who's gonna be hard knocks next year if David Tepper was featured would be great. Yeah, yeah. But wait, if you have a new head coach, you're right. That's right. So David temper. Oh no, they're gonna have a new head coach too.

Shit. Who do we want? We need to start thinking about that for next year. We're on the back with the jets. Come be the major. New head coach. Yeah, new head coach. Yeah, okay.

We'll start making our predictions. Okay, Nerd nugget for this game. I am gonna take the the the panthers and I'm going to regret it. I just want that on the record a Duo of bucks defensive players lead the league and rookie tackle for lost leaders Kalaija can see tied Prefer some on rookies with eight while yaya Diabi is right behind with seven TFL this season Yaya, so the future of the bucks defenses bright nice. I with eight. Well, yay, yay, Diabi is right behind with seven TFL this season. Yeah, yeah. So the future of the Bucks defense is bright. Nice. I guess so.

Yeah. Sure. Yeah, one anonymous Bucks fan, I won't say their name, but they work at this office and they're knowing his fuck. Gave me a tip to bet on Elijah Cancy to win defensive player of the year.

And he's like, at the very worst, you'll have a lucrative cash out option later on. Okay. So that was a fucking lie. Yeah. And that's, that's my nerd nugget. Well, he's the top rookie tackle for loss leader. We could get to spin zone going. He is the top rookie tackle.

He's got eight of them. Yeah. Eight. That's what I just said. Yeah. That's a lot. Yeah. Yeah.

Wow. And I had the obby right behind him. Stop it. Stop making your head. Don't shit your fucking head. Okay, I'm going to say something nice about Jalen Quar lot. Yeah. Wow. And the audio, Abbey right behind him. Stop it. Stop sticking your head, Max. Don't shit, you fucking head. Okay, I'm gonna say something nice about Jalen Carter. Yeah.

That play they had where he chased down Josh Allen last week. We remember we watched. That was Jordan Davis. Oh, that was Jordan Davis. That wasn't Jalen Carter. Which is more impressive because he's like 50%. I'll say something nice about Jalen Carter. It's still unclear whether he was reprimanded

by a police officer or not. Okay, that's nice. How is that nice? Actually, that's still unclear whether he was reprimanded by a police officer or not. Okay, that's nice. How is that nice? Actually, why sit still unclear? That's just like stating a fact. There's still unclear. Yeah. Right, so he might not have done it, that's nice.

But you're not even saying that he didn't do it. Oh, he didn't do it. There you go. Oh, wait, when he was at Center City, yeah, and they were going through a self-checkout line. Target. And he. Oh, you know a lot about this case, huh?

Yeah. What's going on there, Max? I knew that he was with stole something and never find the bike that hit Kelly Ubre. That is weird. I still don't know anything about that. Or the car. Yeah. That would actually be funny if a bike if it was a bike.

Yeah. He was holding a bike, but he there wasn't talks. And this was Whatever Jordan Dates to support my take segment where we just read Jeff need to do stuff. Yeah Jalen Carter defensive rookie. Yeah, did they ever they ever find the guy in Mexico that killed all those people in the cartel? I don't listen. I like Jalen Carter, but how many tackles for lost does he have? Listen, I like Jalen Carter, but how many tackles for lost does he have? Closet, can't see with just name, then I fell defensive rookie of the month for November of the month. Whoa four hours ago. Whoa

And that's over. That's incredible. He did it. How? Yeah, so Jalen Carter, how many you didn't get back to me? How many tackles for lost is he? I don't remember. How many is his status more or less than eight? How many defensive rookie of the months is he won? Let's see. Okay, go check that. Uh, zero collage of cancer. Just he's built different. He is. He really is. One of one was it was a C or K. Collide, I believe.

No, C. C. I was asking about his last name. You had a 50 50 shot. I thought you were asking about his last name. It had a 50 50 shot. I thought you were asking about his last name. It's okay. I don't know if he has any. Let's see what the lucrative

past is. I'm actually just like right now. I think it's like $3. It's like $3. All right. He doesn't have any. I don't think he has any. Elijah Cancer.

Elijah can't see with a K. Your boy has zero tackles for loss and you think. No, I was talking about rookie of the month rookie the months and for sex collage a little sag collage for that the tackle for loss Yeah, so he's got no rookie of the months and collage a can see with the K has at least one one Yeah, it's correct. Okay Six for Jalen Carter Okay, not it. It's not it.

It's not it. I'm looking at my cash out. Oh, cash out unavailable. Oh, that's because they know it's about to pop pop pop. All right, Browns at Rams Joe Flacco. Joe Flacco, baby. Is it? Is it Joe Flacco? I don't know. It is. It is.

And what I'm hearing, it is hell. Yes. DTR is still in the protocol. I? I don't know. It is. And when I'm hearing it is. Hell yes. DTR is still in the protocol. Usually you don't recover. You don't get out of the protocol in a week. It's happened like one time. So he's still dealing with that. And I don't think that they have any designs

on going back to PJ Walker. No idea. I think this is very funny that the Browns fans have to root for Joe Flacco. It is very funny. Per the offense coordinator of the Browns, Alex Van Pelt, he said Flacco still has an elite arm. Hmm.

So listen, I've staked my entire reputation on Joe Flacco possibly being elite. This is going to be a great test too. Like Joe Flacco's well, well past being old. He's very old. And when we last saw him, he looked terrible, but like could a terrible, once good quarterback who's now old be better than a 22 year old that doesn't know how to play football?

It's a possibility. We're going to find out. Here's the thing with Flacco is when we last saw Joe, he looked like he couldn't move at all. Yeah. I don't know if he's gotten better at moving around. I think basically Joe Flacco was like, I've got seven kids or six kids. It kind of sucks being in a house all the time. Yeah. I don't know if he's gotten better at moving around. I think basically Joe Flacco was like, I've got seven kids or six kids.

It kind of sucks being in a house all the time. Yeah. It would be nice to just get out of there for Sundays at least. Yeah. So I think that was as big motivation when getting back to the NFL. But the arm looks good, elite in fact.

Yeah. I'm in on the Rams though this week. The Browns defense is very good, but they also have had a few games where they've really feasted on some unfortunate situations. Kenny Pickett, Matt Canada, Clayton Tune. Remember Clayton Tune? Yeah, remember him that was wild. So there's four games that they've held their opponents at 10 points or less.

Joe Burrow, week one when you still hurt Ryan Tannel bad Clayton tune bad Mac Canada Kenny Pickett Browns and defense still very very good. I'm just saying more the point is Matt Stafford is better than the four I just listen is much better. I just Joe burrow Clayton Tune Ryan Tannel Mac Canada Kenny picket. I just hope that Joe Flacco and Aaron Donald don't get to meet each other at all. Yeah, because that that would be bad. Yeah, that would be I can tell you who's going to win that. I want to I want the browns to hold on and get to the Boy, I was so bad. I just don't know it's you never know though. Flacco. He's still got that arm. Flacco could I Do think Flacco will have at least a game that surprises us. Yeah, you remember that comeback that he had yeah on the jets

Was that jet was against the browns jets Browns. Yeah, dude Flacco still might have it They played the at Rams Jaguarsars at home, Bears at home, at Texans. That's okay. All right, come on, come on, Browns. You know where it got? You know where it got? Just hold on.

Real bad with Flacco was, when he was on the jets, he was struggling to back pedal and turn around and hand the ball off. That movement was tough for him. Yeah, he's got to stay loose. He's got fresh legs though. He's got fresh legs. It's not the game.

Okay, nerd nugget. Before the nerd nugget, I think it's worth telling you guys that the Browns stayed out west. Yeah, they did. Yep, good point. From Denver and they practiced at UCLA last week, this week, and it's supposed to be a homecoming for DTR, but he might not play.

Yeah, so. Miles Garrett banged Garrett being up. He is playing though. He's playing, but I don't know how, yeah, I don't know if he's a hundred percent. If Joe Flacco was going to play for the Browns this weekend, keep in mind. He is two no against the Rams. They were the St. Louis Rams for both games in 2011 and 2015. In the pair of wins, that's terrible. The average terrible nerd 300 300 I like to score. Yeah, past yards per game.

Yep. Yeah, he's a Rams killer. Yeah, two games average 344. It comes Silverado. Yeah, it destroys the Rams. It's way better than the Rams. 2011. I mean, I like it is.

It's funny because it's a means nothing. You think it means something. So it's like, hey, what are we going to do? It's a stat that I like because ironically, if he goes off to seek, yeah, then I guess we're going to say, yeah, then I'll say, if he goes off this week

and the Browns win this game on Sunday night, I'll say, Jake, you were right. He is the Ramskiller. I'm just reporting facts. What is going off for two of Flacco this weekend? We should define that because it needs to be on a scale of 200 yards.

Yeah, to over 200 yards. Multiple passing touchdowns. Two passing touchdowns. Two passing touchdowns, one interception and one 40 yard pass that's 10 yards under throne for a passer-fair. Yeah. I'd like to see two of those. I mean, I would love to see the entire office.

Yeah, it's built those. Okay. Game. The crown jewel of Sunday. Niners and Eagles. Niners and Eagles. Niners and Eagles. Do you feel disrespected, Max? Cause I feel disrespected for you.

No, I love, I mean, yes, it's disrespectful, but I'm happy to see that line. Yes, to Fanski is so excited. The boys are gonna be fired up. I think this is gonna be the first game. In a while that like right out of the gate, we're humming. I think they could be humming too, but like, oh, I think they, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, I don't know.

I just talked a lot of shit. Like, and they, and they, and they, they have to back it up. Debo just keeps talking shit. He just keeps going on different shows and continuing to talk shit. Like, I don't, like, the Eagles didn't do anything wrong. The fact that, no, I don't think that they're, I don't think they're talking shit. Like, no, they are. I'm not saying they did anything wrong i said as a diner's and bullies i think no the dbos say the not the eagles have done wrong things i'm not saying that the dbos say like what do you like what do you expect the eagles to do it all on the not but what did dbos say but but you you just keep talking shit where what is he saying well he keeps talking shit on james bradberry says that james

james james bradberry's trash and then people keep asking me about And he's like I said what I said, and I'll say it again, and Do you think James Bradbury's trash? He's not having a great year, but I'm not sure So you're talking shit. I didn't say he's not a great year You had the penalty at the end of the game in the soup bowl. That was a fake ass penalty. Who was it though? That was a fake ass penalty. Who was it though? That was a fake ass penalty. It was James Bradbury. Oh shit. But he had a good year last year. But if you're asked to fancy, this is the best news you could hope for us to be underdogs at home. Wait, this is seriani.

Seriani, I always mix those two up. Yeah. Seriani is absolutely jacked up. He gets put on like Rocky in the locker room. Here's what it's like to be an underdog in this city. He gets a lean into it big time. I just, Max is not like what I say. He's gonna jump down my throat if I say anything. No, say it. I, the, the Eagles have the defense, especially. They played 92 snaps on Sunday. Okay. That's a lot of snaps. I had a big win against the Chiefs on Monday. I just feel like this is, I feel like the Niners have this game circled more than the Eagles can. And I think that like this will be the NFC championship game in the Eagles will probably beat them in the NFC championship game. But I feel like this Sunday it's not sure. Is that fair? I mean, I disagree. Okay. I also think that the

Eagles are probably like you say the Eagles might lose for all, I didn't say you ask me if that's fair. And I said, I disagree. Okay. Max, we pissed off at the 49ers that they've been doing a lot of like every media opportunity they get. They talk about how they would have beaten the Eagles in that game if they had a quarterback. I get it, but like, we still kicked their ass.

Like, I get that they didn't have a quarterback. We still put up points. Like they still couldn't stop the offense. So like where, what's that? Like where, where's the explanation there? Yeah. Well, their explanation is we didn't have a functional quarterback. But, but how does that affect the defense?

It does and they're just saying like the entire game was thrown off and field position, all that shit. But that just mean like, okay. That just means that. You know that I'm agreeing with you on the side. I'm saying like if I was an Eagles fan, I would be upset by that. You're just getting, you're in your red zone.

Like it's, Max gets, it's maybe it's the green zone where you, you know, you become the Hulk. He's gonna, whatever we say, you're just gonna, like, I think if we were on the road, we would lose this game. But being at home helps. I think it's also supposed to be another rainy game, like shitty rainy.

I mean, that helps both teams. Yeah, I don't think that hell, yeah. The nine years can run the ball. Yeah, I know. I obviously, but I'm not saying that helps or where it hurts anything. I'm just, that's just an observation. Have you heard the Kelsey Christmas album?

No, I did hear the song. I mean, I did hear the song between the brothers. Yeah, RIP, Shane McGowan. They did the Pogs fairy tale in New York, but they did about Philly. Yeah, it was pretty good. It was actually pretty interesting. Travis Kelsey singing about Philly. Yeah, you know what I mean? Interesting. Well, his girlfriends from there. Kind of. Kind of. Yeah, you know what I mean? Interesting. Well, his girlfriend's from there. It's right there. Kind of.

Um. I love, Jason Kelsey has a beautiful voice. He's a beautiful man. It's surprisingly good voice. Uh, I think false starts though. Yeah, false starts are bad. False starts are bad. I think you had the shit.

I think you had the shit. We've all been there. Jordan Milada has a great voice too. Yeah, Jordan Milada actually has a incredible voice. It's not incredible. It's incredible voice. Like Jason Kelsey has a nice man's voice. Yeah. Like there's something that's like the neighborhood bar guy. You can get up on the karaoke and be like, oh yeah, that guy's got an incredible voice. Like Jason Kelsey has a nice man's voice. Yeah.

Like there's something that's like the neighborhood bar guy who can get up on the karaoke and be like, oh yeah, that guy's got a good voice. Jordan Milotta has like real, like real real. He's saying he's saying a Mariah Carey song, didn't he? Yeah, I mean, he's unreal. He's he's he's got talent. Wait, my man's got pipes.

You have to you're gonna bet the Eagles on this? I'm retired. Actually, no, I'm gonna be unretired by Sunday. Okay. I think no, I'm gonna bet the I'm. Oh, you dick. I thought you were gonna bet. I'm retired. Actually, no, I'm going to be unretired by Sunday. Okay. I think, no, I'm going to bet the... Oh, you dick. I thought you were going to be on Sunday. You didn't even let me finish. You didn't let him finish.

I said no, the answer... I'm going to bet props. Oh, say you go. Yeah. That means nothing to me. Okay. A lot of stuff doesn't make sense. All right.

Yeah, that's also true. Nerd nugget time. Got tags in this one a lot. This is Game 2 in the 49ers. Bird gauntlet of a schedule. Oh, last week. Seahawks. This week, Eagles. This is one of gone. Pft. And Cardinals. Then Ravens. Pft. Washed. I am washed. Yeah. I mean, you're the birdie. I am the bird gut. But Jake, I think you're misusing the term bird gauntlet because the true bird gauntlet is playing against every single bird team in the NFL You didn't mention the Falcons. Yeah, well still a gauntlet. It is it's not the complete no, it's not a gauntlet The bird gauntlet is playing against all of the bird teams and no NFL team has ever beaten the bird gauntlet It's never happened. I don't think it's probably hasn't been

scheduled. Yes, it has. Wrong. Wrong. We're not correct. Nerd, nerd, nerd nugget of the week. Do do. No team has ever beaten every bird team in a single season in the history of the NFL. And it has been scheduled multiple times. Well, well, check your little spreadsheet. The C-ox are twice here, so it could be six games. Yeah, it could be. Never happened.

Okay. Check your birdfac. That's a bird brain on your part, Jake. Yeah. Okay, last game, seven-and-a-foot ball. Chees Packers. The Packers might be pretty good. No, the Packers are good.

The Packers are fine. That's what I'll say about them. They're fine. Yeah, I don't know. I mean, I'm excited to watch this game. I just hope the homes play as well. I think you will beat them. I think you will.

I think the offense, they might have something going with the Brishie Rice. Yeah. This is, we did lose because the Flex, Hankanks team was the first team to ever get Flex out of Monday football. Yeah. They should actually have to announce it that way too. Like we're flexing out because of this team.

Yeah. Because it wasn't the chiefs. So we do lose the moment that we talked about. The Michelle Bisoner Buck moment where he's talking, she's talking to Patrick Mahomes being like, these guys are really coming along. So let's find somewhere else. It'll happen. Yeah.

I'm very confident that did you see what Tyree Kill said about leaving the chiefs? Yeah, he didn't get invited over, right? He felt like he was their side piece and he's never been a side piece before and Patrick Mahomes has Travis Kelsey over to his house all the time and never had Tyree Kill over. Yeah. Which sucks. Brutal. Holmes has Travis Kelsey over to his house all the time and never had Tyree Kill over. Which sucks, brutal. Like I wonder what might have been. They just, well they probably played a lot of like

call of duty with each other, right? They were, they were in land party. It also matters like how much, like was Patrick Holmes inviting Travis Kelsey over every week because then that is kind of fucked up. And that is, you know what I mean? Like if it was like, oh Travis Kelsey got invited over once that Tyree Kild didn't.

Yeah, whatever grow up dude. But like yeah, they had like a standing date. Yeah, and he wasn't invited. That's messed up. I think I think all of you guys have been to my house, right? Yeah. Not Max. Yeah, not much.

Well, that's because I have a dog. Yeah, don't look. So you didn't want to come over. Don't let him. Factorfiction Max asked you to dogs that you said no. It was over the Liberty Weekend. Yeah. Yeah.

Oh, all right. Nerd nugget for the last game. Dude, dude, dude. Oh, God. Nerd nugget of the week. That was, that was the worst one than the first time you did it. You guys liked it. What did my soul dies every time?

This one also went viral this weekend or this week. Aaron Rodgers and his first 11 games as a starter, 2500 99 passing yards and 21 total touchdowns. Jordan Love and his first 11 games as a starter, 2500 99 passing yards and 21 total touchdowns. It felt personal to Big Cat that you made that the nerd nugget of the week. Yeah, I don't say that one games. It just felt personal. He did. I took it personally. That could have been just felt personal. He did. I took it personally. That could have been just any other nerd nugget.

I took it very personally. You did the trumpets and everything. Yeah. Well, I was extra proud this time because you were mocking. Because it was personal. Well, it deserves to be my. Get your bird. We need to keep, we need to keep the world in order.

That was my, that was my bird nugget of the week. Bird nugget. Have it. Oh, you should come up with bird nugget. I'll do it. But yeah, now I'm doing bird nugget of the week. Bird nugget. Haven't always should come up with bird nugget. I'll do it. But yeah, now I'm doing bird nugget of the week for every bird. Because listen, I've been on the bird beat for a long time. That's what I'm saying.

That was your. Well, it wasn't even a good one because it didn't involve. He missed bird gauntlet. I didn't make the name up. Yeah, the bird gauntlet is a different thing. The bird gauntlet is all that's like the internet for making it up. That's the crown jewel is a real true that's not creating any of the crown jewels counter up here

it's crown jewel okay let's take a Jake for the record I I like the nerd nuggets thank you I like the nerd that I didn't like that one I didn't like that one fun and I didn't like the sound well I had an extra one for this game, just in case you stole this one. Oh, do it. Uh, an answer, Jinks. Kicker Harrison Bucker is a perfect 20 for 20 on few goals and 28 of 28 on extra points this season. Another kicking performance this week. He'd be the first chief's kicker to ever be perfect through his first 12 games of the season and the seventh kicker and NFL history to do it. Okay, so he'll make it pretty impressive. Yeah. Bet him to miss. I might not. You know what? I might flip it and reverse it, get back in on the doinks.

It hasn't been done since 2016, Justin Tucker. I might bet a doink games without a miss. I might bet a doink. Can you do that for a regular season? I think for a standalone primetime game. We'll find it. You might be able to. Might snow.

Might snow. Oh, a doink in the snow. A doink in the snow would look great. Get a little like flurry of snow falling off the top of the goalpost. Yeah. It'd be nice. Okay, so let's do our picks.

Give us the standings. We killed it last week. Yes, we went 14 and four as a group. Look at that. We know ball. We know ball. It also was one of those weeks where like all the favorites covered. Yes.

All the squares won and I hate when I find that out on Monday. It's like, I had a great week. They're like Vegas got killed.

So I put it down and then you know,

One of our favorite sponsors available in stores nationwide. But you can head on over now to the body armor store on Amazon and get yours today. Okay, here, here they are.

Brandon Marshall and Cam Newton. Okay, we now welcome on a very special guest. Not too special. Yeah, I mean, NFL MVP. National champion. Highsman trophy winner. Not too special. Yeah, I mean, NFL MVP. National champion. Yeah. High's been trophy winner. Cool hat guy. Cool hat guy. Appreciate it. It is Cam Newton. Appreciate it. In the studio. It's on again. Yeah, this is this is an honor to have you here. It's a deal, bro. Like, I told you before, like, I fuck with the campaign that you guys are doing. I like that. Oh, and here's Brandon Marshall. So Brandon that you guys are doing. I like that.

Oh, and here's Brandon Marshall. So Brandon Marshall's here as well. We just started. So these two guys are doing a tour. It's called the IMI iconic tour. They're doing a show in Chicago. Where else we got on the tour? What before we even get into that?

What have you guys taken y'all show on the tour? No, we haven't. We need to. Why? We're lazy. Oh my goodness, yo, you guys are going to love it. So we travel a lot for work. Our thing with the tours that we've always thought that if we were going to go on tour,

we'd have to make a show that's different. Like we didn't want to just sit on couches and do our regular podcast. So then to come up with a unique show takes a lot of effort. We should do it. We should. It does it. You know, I know you're asking us about to get into what we're doing here and everything. And that's exactly what we were able to do.

It's come together and just like, you know, we're both creative, but in different ways, like super creative. And it's like, all right, we have 90 minutes. What does this look like? Right. Because you can go. And it's just like sitting on Caljus and you think that you're gonna see just funky Friday or four to one or I am at the end.

It's not that. It's like, you get that, but then there's so many different elements. So, that's cool. The live aspect to filling the audience, you know, incorporating them to. Yeah. Do you have any added visual aspects to it,

because that's something I thought about too. If we do a live show, it's like we, I would want to have something going on above us a little bit, make it look different in addition to being a different show. I think that's essential. We have a cigar roller. Nice. You dig it.

So how many tours dates are you doing? Because that's the other part of it is that we wouldn't want to do a tour if we, like we're, we, we try to talk in a national way in terms of sports like obviously we have our teams but we would feel like if we did like a two or three stop tour a lot of our fans would be like what the fuck why aren't you coming to our other the other dates are are undisclosed at this particular moment okay like that we can't we can't tell you that this is one of three shows that's leading to the fourth show in Vegas. Oh, we're actually going to do a live show in Vegas. Oh, yeah.

Yeah. Yeah. Everybody Hank is going to he's going to do an hour of stand up. Yeah. And stand up before. Yeah. Wow. We're excited about it. Um, you know, it's going to be a pretty cool. And it's like how you guys are thinking. And I hate saying this like we're here in Chicago. You know, it's going to be a pretty cool. And it's like how you guys are thinking. And I hate saying this like we're here in Chicago. So tomorrow Wednesday at city winery for people want to get their tickets and come out and experience it. It's going to be an experience for sure. But what I hate saying is it's like, you know, it's going to be phenomenal tomorrow. But as you grow and go like so much more you learn and it's just gonna get bigger and bigger

Like when you talk about like the elements, you know video boards and things like that. Yeah, you know We're gonna start adding some cool things because we're gonna learn as we go. Yeah, yeah, I like that. I like that Camer, are you retired? No question. No, officially not retired. Have you been getting phone calls? No. What's up with that? I don't know. I don't think I will ever retire.

Oh, oh, yeah, that's good. I'm one of those guys. So I could see Cam just coming back when you're 45 years old. Not 45. By that time, I would probably pull the bar stool move and make some real big strides in the media space So yeah, if I were to come back at that particular point in time, it'll be just

For the fan. It would be like dream on green you could do a podcast and also play Not or like that. No, you did it. You did it. That's where funky Friday was created.. Yeah. We just played with the pets. I did, but I think, um, no, it's not must, must is. If you had to play a game on Sunday, Brandon, how many catches would you get? I mean, at tight end, I get 10 catches.

Receiver. Three. Okay. Yeah. Slant back shoulder tight. Yeah, it's different out there. Yeah. It's definitely different. But tight in, you know, you see Gonzalez catch 110 balls when he was 40, right? Yeah. And it's just being savvy and understanding how to get in certain positions. That position wasn't a brush to his skill set either. I don't think he does that in this day and age. You don't think so? I don't think that while Tony Gonzalez was playing, I don't think the outside linebacker position slash cover

safety was up the par what his skill set was offering. Guys like, you know, Tony Gonzalez, Esk, Shannon Sharp, Esk, Antonio Gates, Yeah. Mayways for Greg Olson, Travis Kelsey, George Kittle. But teams were forced, Rob Grant Kowski, yeah, we forget. Yeah, he was monster. That forced teams to get prepared for this movement

of tight ends. Now we have national tight end day and, you know, things like that because these guys are really X factors in the space. So so you're saying I won't get 10 catches based on saying you will not get that's basically all that to say is that I won't get to get they get three. It's him always a hater like this. No, it's a real list. I'm a realist. But I disagree with him because, you know, it's like,

all right, stick, we call stick. Yes, sticky. Right. Any of those routes, like, come on. In coverage, that's it easy. And then I also like my matchup versus a safety. There's only probably sticky. You're usually, it's the linebacker that.

What I'm saying, for zone. For sure, but that's like zone, like I can sit it and he's on, I'm saying for zone for sure, but that's like zone like I can sit it in these are I'll say be able to get right there but I'm talking about even if I have like You put me outside You put me outside and I'm match up one-on-one versus a safety you don't like me on a go-ball back shoulder I don't think that even happens

With that why think that even happens with that. Why? Now, third and two to short, you could get that match up. Oh, there we go. Yeah, there's one. There's a catch. There you go. There's one.

But now my question is one. And now my question is to him, it's not how many catches you will have, it's how many yards would you have? Because that catches is like, sticky is going to average out by six to 10 yards with a broken tackle. Oh, I'm still right now to this day. Like I'll go run. I can run 20 miles per hour. I can my speed is still there. The problem is when you get older, can you stop? Right. Yeah. That's the problem.

And then actually that that quick tip twitch muscle at the line of scrimmage. That's when I'm talking about the matchup at Y receiver. But if I get the ball in my hand, well no, the other problem is the king take a hit. Yeah, that's the other thing. You get a bit of, oh yeah. It was like, yo, your yak would probably be like negative. Yeah, right, like I don't want to get hit.

Yeah, sure. But even really for you, like you played that sport where you could get down. You know what I'm saying? It's like catch, get down. Tyler Lockett. Yeah, Tyler Lockett does it. You mentioned down, right?

He did that a lot. He was not a bruiser. Greg was like that too. He was not like one of those guys that's gonna deliver to blow. Grunk was a guy that was like, ouch, that hurts. I'm gonna keep battering and boom, boom, boom.

Yeah. What a time. Let's get back to Can real quick. Cause I've been asking him this question every time I got it, every time I get an opportunity. So you know what I feel? My gut says that cause like, he's built in his empire media, that, that. I feel like this offseason,

you're going to like put pressure on, like you ain't put pressure on nobody right now. Oh, you're gonna maybe work out? Yeah, I feel like it's like, yes. I feel like next year's the year you're gonna put pressure on people right now. Oh, you're gonna maybe work out? Yeah, I feel like it's like, oh, yes. I feel like next year's the year you're gonna put pressure on people and you're gonna be back in the NFL next year. That's not too far off. Ooh. See, I'm saying.

He has a plan. That's not too far off. I'm just waiting on somebody to tick me off. Yeah. Oh, you want us to do it? Yeah, I don't think you got anymore. You know, I think he cares too much about off the field. That doesn't have to be.

He was so bad on his face. Yeah, I really wasn't though. Look at that. See? Look at him now. Yeah. Yeah. You're going to come back.

Look at him now. Camdune just doesn't love football. Oh. No, I think really for me is it's one of those situations where if I'm moved by, I'm gonna get moved by. Right, I'm saying. Right spot, right place, right time. Fire up like an Instagram video of you working out

with that unusual. Throw like, found underneath. Dead the fun. Can we talk about the fun? Yeah, I post my way, go download the app right now. It's not in our sense. You have an app for it? And you can write like, yeah?

It's an app, it's a keyboard. People always ask like, how do you type so fast? If you were to look at my app right now. It's not in our sense. You have an app for it? And you can write like, it's an app. It's a keyboard. People always ask like, how do you type so fast? If you were to look at my phone right now and pull up how I type, it's a keyboard. So it kills me. Buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, b, buh, b, b, b, b, b, b, b, b, b, b, b, b, you're like, hey, regular taxes just doesn't have enough flavor to me. Like I want to make my own fucked up alphabet. No, it's not fucked up. It's more like, if I were to give everybody a sheet of paper right now and I was in our to say, we love Jake Blake

Bordles. Yeah. And you know, Barstoo sports media and everybody has to write that. Mm-hmm. We all wouldn't type it the same. We wouldn't write the same. Why should we type the same?

So like handwriting yeah, but you're putting the onus on like does he text you in the weird font? Oh, yes, it's yeah, you put the onus on everyone else. Yeah, huh? We all have to like when we read it. It's like what is this? It's one of those things that yo We're not used to seeing media like this until bar still was created. Okay. Now it's like We're not used to seeing media like this until bar still was created. Okay. Now it's like, get a line. It's like, it's mine. Yeah. It's Amazon.

So, do you ever text real? No. Never. No. Like, what if it's an emergency? Like, call the ambulance. You're going to do that weird text and people like, what is it? I text my mom.

Look, let me see. Let me see. Fill out your taxes online on TurboTax. You use the fucked up font. I pay people to do that. Yeah, for you. Yeah, you're rich. That's incredible.

But this was the time I created it around 2016 when everybody was creating apps. Remember Kimoji, remember Steph Moji. Yes. Like all these different things. And I was like, yo, I don't want to just create a bunch of avatars. I was like, yo, I want to do something that I'm going to use, right?

And was going strong at the time. I was like, yo, like I type and I didn't know how many different versions of A, it was. Yeah. And I was like, yo, how many is A? Then you got E, then you got, I'm like, yo, I've never seen a wildlife that. I was like, yo, I want to create my own like that. I was like, yo, I wanna create my own app where I could type like this and then boom. I kinda respect that.

So did you ever text Bella check with that? Of course. Yeah. Yeah. Did he ask you any follow up questions or is it like I guess maybe my phone's broken? Well, no, no, I recant that, not Bella check or craft, but initially, but over time it was one.

Once you got to know them. Once they got to know me. Right. Oh no, so you, you, you, you, you text something regular font initially? Until the, no, it was going out process. Yes. Okay.

Yes, because I didn't, look, everything about Cam Newton in some ways, Brandon Marshall is like, okay, is he who we here he is? Mm-hmm. And I didn't want to kind of spook him a little bit, you know what I'm saying? I would have been dope if you like Ralph the top. Yeah. Yeah. Here you go, boom.

Like ready to go, coach. Let's get this. Yeah, let's get it. What's the, uh, what is it? Dosekies, most interesting man in the world. Yeah. Do you think that I feel like you might be top five in the world and he should probably do the spot now. Yeah.

Interesting man in the world. You never see that Dosekies commercial. Yeah. People bow down in his brand. Yes, yes, yes. People pray. Yes. But I think really, I don't drink by the way.

What the reason why I said that is because like the hats and you know the tour You know now we're spending a lot of time together, you know what I mean? We talked down there every day. It feels like or at least texting with the font the crazy fun Mm-hmm, and so like I hit he might hit me at 8 30 in the morning. He has the hat on Yeah, he has the abotar on sometimes like he's always dressed up. He's texting in this font You know people always ask that question like really because sometimes I'll post like a little screen grab or when I that's why I say it like you might be The most interesting do it definitely in sports wait, so so the hat I have a question about it. We have a theory and this is from a fans perspective. Did you? Did you ever bring a losing outfit

to because like when you lose a game and then you're wearing like a yellow suit and like a weird feather hat? Fans are like, what the fuck? Did you ever think about bringing like a losing suit? Never. Never. Never. You know, one of the things that when people who knew me knew that whole Super Bowl post-game interview, they knew something was wrong because I'd never enter a post-game without being dressed. Right. I was in, I was still in my field of tire. Yeah. Yeah. I was just, so, but to that point I never wanted to distract myself from the only focus being winning. So bringing a backup outfit would have distracted me to say what what if we do lose I may don't want to look like fuck that. Maybe get like a trainer like one of the trainers to like have just like a sweatsuit. You don't have to pack it. Like here.

Can I have just in case or something? Anything else anything it's three picks. Maybe we'll go to Anything I would do the interview and In my outfit and then on our way back home. I would then change You put on a bow tie like an AM Yes, seven AM when I'm taking the kids to school. Do you get dressed up to go to sleep? I get dressed up. No, I get... That's a great question. Yeah, where you put your arms to sleep.

Or are you faster than I'm going to sleep? It's a great question. I like you. I like you too, Brandon. You what? I sleep naked. Oh, nice. Me too.

Yeah. We're going to get back to Cam and Brandon in a second. They're brought to you by Bluetooth. You can have better sex with Bluetooth. Bluetooth is currently the only place to go for chal versions of Sildenafil and Tadella Phil. These ingredients help men achieve stronger, harder, and longer lasting erections for sexual activity. It helps come back all forms of ED, which also includes performance anxiety and also maintaining interaction long enough for sex. The tubal tablets have the same

You had a clip the other day where you were talking about your penis, I penis say it was small It's average, okay, I don't like that you yeah cuz like I know that it's probably not small And I don't like you like you're encroaching on small guy dick territory. We're in I do have a small We're encroaching on suspect conversation. I'm just saying you you're the one who started it

No, he started it. No, but you started it with the clip. Wait, I'm just gonna look up and see you started. Cam Newton, penis. But this is the first one. Is this the first one? Is this the first one? Who said it first? Like that challenge that? He has to be its bullshit because he's like,

oh, I'm average. No, that's not fair, because I have a small penis. And that's not, you can't. Every man here, Cam Newton, Prattly, states he has a very average. Sorry, sorry. We talking six inches. We're talking. Every day block every block every man hero came to in Prattley states. He has a very average We talking six inches We're talking his average place in average for your body size because Let's move forward

You're six foot six and that looks tiny listen if you really want to find out make sure you come to city winery At 7 30 I'll be happy to happy to give more insight to this question. And somebody will be finding out later that night. The so Brandon, you're, I am athlete, what you built has been awesome. Yes. What's the status of the beef right now that went viral a couple weeks ago? I forgave them. Okay. So what was the what was the the status of the beef right now that when viral a couple weeks ago? I forgave them Okay, so what was the what was the genesis of the beef?

Yeah, Cam Newton and Cam Newton He's really encouraged me to Forgive and the Bible says you know 77 times. Okay, 77 time. No, it's not that I'm just messing around look We did something special and What was it to give the backstreet business? It's just business right like you know when you start out. Hey Let's go let's go. Let's go sell a show right and you know, there's no deals On a table. There's no contract sign and then boom it it turns into its cultural, social phenomenon,

things change, right? And so, Yeah. Brennan Marshall has not and did not do bad business. Right. Brennan Marshall is a person who mismanaged business. It's a good, I don't like how you did that. So, not signing contracts, that's not bad business, that's just mismanaged business. It's a good, oh my God, you did that. So not signing contracts, that's not bad business,

that's just mismanaged. It's like, it's also if you have friends involved, there's always a little bit of interest. It can be conflict adventures. Right, right. It can be conflict adventures. But as you know, you guys built this empire of bar stool that we see bar stool, Alburn,

we see bar stool like in Nanny. Like it's so many different prefixes of barstool that we see now. Trying to buy shares or trying to buy a piece of the company today is different than trying to buy a piece of the company at 2012. That's facts. And I think when you see his situation,

it's kind of tangled when it shouldn't be that hard to just say like, yo bro, I wish we would have had It's kind of tangled when it shouldn't be that hard to just say like, yo bro, I wish we would have had more of understanding of what the real is. Orcite of yeah. Rather than just pushing it back like, yo, when we're doing a tour, you know, hold on, we're gonna handle this after it.

And then after that, it's something else takes on. And that's where I think. The first time too. You said it again. When you're doing it for the first time, you don't know what you don't know. Right into it. Yeah, I mean, the vision was just to sell the show.

That was it. I wasn't thinking about building a platform and even more fun until where you guys are at today. That wasn't even it. It was like when I went out there and we started having conversations, started learning. And people were like, well, we want to own 60% of the IPs. Yeah, huh.

This is during the time in the pandemic, where a lot of artists are talking about ownership and owning your IP. And so you start learning, and then you just, you grow. You get stronger, you get smarter. But I would say after the first, once we got into it, we definitely invested, maybe, we invested a lot of money into, you know, offers and contracts.

You. Yeah. And no one else put in money. So like that's, yeah, that makes sense. Like when I was listening to you explaining, I was like, and so you've forgiven the guys. Here's the reality, I'll say this and then we could, like I'm like kind of moving on.

Okay. This is what I would say. It's like, you know, what I've learned, right? In this process, it's not bad business, like what Cam said. What, you know, I've done things that were bad for business, right? And what that means is, you know, sometimes just taking things to personal, right? Sitting down with some of the guys and, you guys and after six, seven months having certain conversations,

then it's like, you know, it's back in the locker room or we're in a field and that conversation's like, no, like this is business, boardroom talk, you gotta be able to separate the two, you can't take this personal. So there's times I may have said things, my tone have changed and that's what's been bad for business, right?

But we've invested hundreds of thousand dollars just in attorneys coming in and building out platform and infrastructure and all of those things. So they're in a great place, they're crushing it. And for me, my journey is a little different. I'm not building podcasts, I'm building platform. And so it's going gonna look a little different, but for sure we'll get there. And it's a different type of sacrifices,

a different type of risk. You know, I'm a real entrepreneur, and I've always been that way. And there's a lot of opportunities for us. So, you know, definitely a journey, a lot of key learnings. And I think that it's gonna help me as I move forward. Let's, let me say this to it because the the honesty in me cannot say this enough, but let's

be real and about this. Even though we didn't come on here to talk about this. This is a part of his story. Yeah. Right. And what I will hate for this to kind of spin off and you guys take a sound by this, like, oh Brandon says he forgives, but he doesn't feel like, man, look bro. I would love, oh here he goes. No other than everybody who has some type of emotion in regards to feeling a certain type of way good, better and different. Let's talk.

Yeah. Yeah. And respectfully, I hate that it's just being extremely honest. Yeah. Black man, making a mockery of business. Because we're coming together to do good business. And I love what Fred has has become Channing has become Ryan has become this this whole space of media is so much out there for everybody to eat. Yeah, and there's no need for us to say, man, fuck bar still,

bar still ain't shit. part of my take should I They're fratin' eyes and with part of my interrupt. You're like Bro everybody has their own different. That's facts. Yeah of their different Point of view for certain different things and just me being around Brandon has just been a breath of fresh air because he's helped me so much I can't say that enough. And I told him the only reason why I'm inspired to go on tour was going on the IMF lead tour. I've seen I was a guest. Speaking of guests, we have Vic Mensa as our guest for the show.

But I saw that and I was like, yo, I need that, right? And I'm looking at my producer right now, Krista Myers and she came by way of Brandon. Yeah, and I'm saying, and so much about life, fuck business, it's about harmony, it's about how you two able to put differences aside to say like, listen bro, we have a due diligence to put a great product in screen.

That's what we said at the start of every show. Yeah I'm saying. It's so much. It's incredible what you built brand. Like it should be very proud of it. Sure. It's been awesome to see it because you can tell the people that have been guests on your show

are immediate, they're comfortable. That's right. They're speaking in a way that they don't speak anywhere else in the media. And you see like, when you guys run the league, you talk to a reporter, you do an interview, you do press conference. It's almost like you got the second thought

going through your head the whole time of, okay, what am I not supposed to be saying right now? What are those guardrails? And I guess we're touching. But when they're talking to you and your podcast, they seem to just open up right out of the gate. Is there any guess that after you were done with the interview and the cameras are off, just like you all exhale and you're like, that was some deep shit.

Yeah. I mean, I would say like, I'm sorry, you asked this, I asked that question, but I know I've known gotten to know Brandon so well along this three-to-four-month process that there was clips that we left out. And it wasn't to protect him or to not expose certain things. It was just like, yo bro, like damn, we only got two hours. Yeah, but a product together like we should have had a part two part three But I think really for him and I'll call him out on so many different sounds or it's like bro You change him and fuck that we need that doll I need fucking To kick the ball over the fence

That was a great punt by the way people don't talk about how great I was when you were you I don't know if you were trying to get off the Broncos. I don't know what the situation is right. Yeah behind the scenes But you pointed that ball You hit that thing like 60 yards. That was a nice boot. Oh It was a great point. We got to get that talk back Maybe Cam just should hold a picture of Robbie Gold and just show it to you and then you know I'm back in you listen It's a tough. It's a tough. it's tough. It's tough, right? Because like, it's tough.

It's tough. Like, here's my goal. My goal is over the next two years. I want to morph into more of what cams at, right? Meaning over the next two years, I want to just do what I want to do right I want to do like 20 30 episodes a year people I really want to learn from putting out a show every Monday just because it's the business the man I'm not into that right like I want to build platform I come

in here I'm inspired you know you see the multiple sets I can envision this athletes podcast, this athletes show, we have three, four, five, five day week shows live, we're gonna do that, right? And I'm more interested in that than being in front of the camera. And so you gotta move a little differently, but you always gotta show up as yourself. So it's a learning process. That's what I would say.

But throughout this process, and we can move on after this, but on this process, I think he's been a punching bag when he should have been getting his flowers. Yeah. Like real shit. I think there's respect there though.

I think across the media landscape, people respect it. Yeah. And that's also just a part of the internet is when you put yourself out there, people will take you down. It's never going to be a point of topic in regards to branding. Yeah. Bartholomeal tyrone. It's the name. Yeah. I like it. It's like that. And while we got y'all attention before he gets to talking about the make sure y'all come

out to city winery. Yeah. Check it out. You mentioned Greg Olson a couple times. His name's in the news today. I don't know if you saw this yet. You see that? There's a report that he wants to be the coach of the care lot of panthers. What do you know about like we know Greg. We like Greg. He's a good guy. Do you think he's got the right personality be a head coach or you think he's just he wants to stay in the booth. But if your name's connected to a head coach. I think it's a little premature. Honestly speaking, do I think he could be a head coach one day? Uh, yes. I think he's extremely thorough.

I think he's an ultimate professional. I think he prepares in ways that he doesn't get or people don't even care to think of a tight end to be prepared that way. There's times where he finished the play before the play, the place prefix was even given. It was like, Kim, Kim, what, what does it sound like? Hold on, hey guys, guys, hold on, no, we got empty the gun trip slept like 6.55. Like, let's go, let's go, snap the, like that was, that was who Greg is.

That was pretty compression, you know? But I was with him, like, he made me, you know what I'm saying? I made him. You know, that was a guy who, you know, those relationships in sports and life, you know, you know, from his wife to his, to his beautiful kids, his twins, like you just see the man kind of grow. So do I think he gets the head coach and job for the Carolina Panthers? Who knows? If he gets it, I

will probably be at more Panthers games. But would you be the offense accord? No, chance. And what offense would you run? I don't think a lot of offense is really lean on the impact of up tempo offense. Yes. Yes. I would have that fucker in high gear. Yes. Now the problem is complimentary football because I love whenever a team goes up tempo and

you know, don't let them sob and like just just keep keep the pedal of the metal. But then if you go three and out and up tempo offense like multiple times and your defense just on the field forever. That's why you know, a little bit of why Chip Kelly in the NFL maybe it didn't work out because once that once a defense starts stopping the up tempo offense, it's like wait, time and possession here like our defense on the field for 70 snaps. This is crazy. It's a different way and possession here like our defense on the field for 70 snaps. This is crazy It's a different way of of ball control Yeah, and whether it's up tempo or just ground and pound. It's still controlling the clock. Yeah But I'm a product of the

fruits of up tempo offense the fruits of up tempo offense, it forces teams to get prepared. Another thing to work on, endurance in a given week, but also into the point that you was gonna get to, we can get to it right now. I think I beneficiary, who would benefit off of up tempo offense

is Justin Fields. Mm, yes. Cause a tire at Lyman, Laman does not want to run around trying to chase him. He does look good when they go up-tempo. Yes. And I mean, he's a great offense accordion. Yeah.

Are you guys think that Justin Fields like the bear should keep him? I mean, you know Brandon how this city works with quarterbacks. It's not maybe the best relationship when it comes to like back. Oh, we need to back up. We need to move on. Listen, listen, I get so much love in Chicago. It's unbelievable.

I left for a couple of years and coming back, you know, maybe it was a year or so ago, I forget how much love was in Chicago. Okay. And that last year, we imploded, and it was tough. But down, I came in September, watched Justin against the Packers opening day, and there was like a hundred players there, and they recognized us at halftime and ate behind buckets. Yeah.

I got the second loudest ovation. And so like, thanks for the love. But I gotta say this, like, and they know, as the city knows, I'm always gonna be real, I wear my emotions on my sleeve, leave fucking Justin alone. Yeah. Yeah.

Leave Justin alone. Get the right, get the coaching system right. Cause I don't know if they need to, I'm not in the room. So I don't know if they need a new coach or the coach need to adjust. Earn offense, of course. Right. But what I'm saying is,

Justin can be special. Justin is special. Now I'm put him in the right situation. Leave him alone. Leave him alone. Let him play ball. Leave him go out there and play. What you always say?

Keep it super simple. Yeah. Yeah. No, it's true. When when they do up tempo and they let him like be himself, he looks great. Yeah. When you can see that they're trying to make him a just a pocket passer, it starts to break down a little. See, see, this is this is the narrative of and I I was kind of judged on this principle. Yeah. of and I was kind of judged on this principle. Yeah. People who think they know football or sports Peyton Manning did this league a disservice. Right. Okay. By having like, you know, 350 yards passing, you know, for touchdowns, the Brett Farves of the world

All right here comes Michael Vick here comes a Cam Newton here comes Steve young Right here comes these athletic quarterbacks that we're gonna get the yards elsewhere, all right, so a typical winnings stat line for Cam Newton is this, 208, 215 yards passing, another 80 yards rushing, one touchdown, you know, either passing or running, and three touchdowns in total. All together, that's upwards of 300 yards in total offense. Not only that, it's controlling the clock and you know that kives, you know,

there's chunk plays in there, but it's not the prototypical way where you used to seeing cars being made, right? Now when you see Justin last night, right? He went 10 for 10, but he probably had like 42 yards in those 10 passes. Yeah. It's, it's, it's confidence builders. Now you're throwing the ball out on smoke screens. You throwing a ball out on bubble screens. You're throwing a screen. You're throwing this.

You're throwing that. But at the same time, when it's time for him to say, this is a Justin Phil's moment, get the fuck out of his way. He's now fresh to do that. Rather than I would hate systems like this, Hennibal off one yard. Hennibal off again, a negative two yards. Now it's third and twig.

Yeah, always behind. And I'm like, yo bro, I'm not that guy. Right. You know what I'm saying? Now you got these exotic blitz packages where it's like, hold on. Said, hey, hold on, hold on. Hey, 52's to my here.

Why the easy, easy, easy, no, no, no, no, no, hey 38s to my, hey, let's rover to 52. Set, it's too much. Right, it's too much. Just let them go, let them go. So if it's not offence a corner, can it be offence a consultant team just hire you to bring you in and just, that's a good one.

You make a lot of money. And if the quarterback gets injured, you can be like, hey, I'm right here. It's like coaches and organizations, they need to listen to players more. That is not happening. It's a lot of, if I own the team, if I own the team and I had a Josh Allen,

I had a Justin Fields, I'm calling you, what do we do? Like we got to learn from Cam Newton. In 2015 MVP, what are you talking about here? But we got to turn the page to. We got to turn the page. But you're not retired yet. Yeah, but you're not retired. We're not returning to the beginning.

We're not returning to the beginning. Do you know how to turn the page? Yeah, I'm already on the other page. Part of my take is sponsored by BetterHelp. This time of year can be a lot.

Let's turn the page backward real quick. Let's talk about Florida. Let's talk about going to go to school down Florida. I saw the look that you I'm not going to ask you the bad stuff about Florida. But ask ask. But I do I do want to know just like how crazy was it being on campus with all those guys that we know now. Yeah, we're playing there under urban mar I mean you had like Tim Tibo. All right. The pounties were down there, right? Of course. We're in the same draft class. I mean,

recruiting class. It seems like it was the biggest collection of the biggest group of personalities you could ever imagine on campus at one place. Yeah. My second down campus, they won a national championship and it forever, like, changed my mentality of college. Yeah. At 17 years on, I graduated early and I was on campus and classes were canceled because Florida was in the national championship. I think for the first time in like I think a decade. I think it was a spur year. There's the last time So I'm like I'm going to class. I'm supposed to go to class and I'm looking. I think I'm in the right place. Oh class is canceled Wow got palsy twins got Joe Hayden

Carlos down lap myself air Hernandez resting piece council. Wow. Got palsy twins, got Joe Hayden, Carlos Dunlap, myself, Aaron Hernandez, Reston Peece. Steve Wilkes was a receiver from Lakeland, Amabla. It was seven of us. Brian Wagner, which was the number one quarterback from Dream College. He wasn't kind of in our thing because he was older, but we were all in the same dorms together And I just remember that second day when they won at Chris League at the helm obviously Tim Tibo had a major impact with that And seeing that college experience went from university of Florida to project X Wow my my time at Florida was, everything was impeccable. If it was up to me, I would have never left Florida. But the main reason why I went to Florida was not, it's not happening.

It wasn't manifesting for me. I went there to play football. I was never going to play football there in ways that I wanted to without hoping somebody got hurt. Right. And I never wanted that to be, you know, like my MO. are in ways that I wanted to without hoping somebody got hurt and I never wanted that to be, you know, like my MO, I never wanted to be like a hater, which was like, I was a celebrated person.

Like people saw it later on in my career when somebody's score, I didn't give a damn who score. I just was so excited about it. When Tibo went on that run to win a husband and the first, he was the youngest run to win a husband and the first, he was the youngest person to win a husband at that time, which was unbelievable. I wanted him to succeed. I just wanted to play too. And it wasn't enough footballs on the football field to do that. Exactly. So now I was like, yo, I just got to leave because even though even putting more microscope to the situation,

they didn't even identify who the backup was. And I was having a conversation with my dad. I was like, pop. They can't even name the official backup. Why would I stay here? The point is not to be the backup. The point is to be the guy. And I don't want to find myself in a situation as a junior or a senior and we're

still platoonin' as, you know, teammates, which, you know, it is what it is. But if I could have it my way, this, this would have happened had they be LSU that year when I was at Auburn. I would have loved to play Florida in the SEC Championship. Oh my God, I was praying for that. It would have been so many emotions. What was your relationship like with Urban Meyer? It was stagnant for so many years. I mean, it's not like I got his number now, but the first time I seen urban was at a Tim Teebo's event. I think it was like a third or four-year in the NFL. And they weren't used to people leaving and having success.

That was kind of their thing. It was like, well, what's better than Florida? Right. In 2008, it was title time USA. You had Joe Camino and basketball, Tim T. Boe, Chris Leake, and football. Dan Pilserian. You know, yeah. Shit, a lot. And during that time, I didn't think that they knew

a rose could be created from concrete. Yeah, I'm saying it was it was just so hard to believe. So when I thrust it back on the scene at Auburn, it was like, how could you let this guy leave? Yeah. And everybody was scrambling like, no, he left because it was so many different reports about this. A stolen laptop of this and that and that.

Or what he's still is doing. I was like, listen, bro. So what happened when y'all sent when he when he seen you at Tim Teebo's event with the I approach Tim okay and what happened I approached him which is like man listen all bygones be bygones bro coach appreciate you you raised me in a lot of who I am, I owe it to Errimir and especially Tim Tibo, the mentality, the grit, the preparation, the attitude, the persona, all that. I learned it initially from University of Florida, and then when I went to dream college, I would have been a fool not to take on those different attributes and ingredients, sort of speak speak because we had Percy Harvin Brandon Spikes yeah, Crenerity's Singroom, Lewis Murphy, Major Wright, like that

in salary, Brian Brandon, no, Brandon, Tyler was gone. But these guys were very big personality, hard working guys that they may working hard cool and I wasn't used to that. You know, I'm saying, my fuck, we gonna get up, we gonna work, we gonna whoop some ass, we gonna party, we gonna whoop some ass again. I was like, oh, that's what we doing. And boom, like they was doing.

I seen Joe Hayden literally, you know, left two times his body weight as beer was seeping through his pores. That's how much. That's what the deal was. It's like, oh, he parties hard, but he gets it though. And shit, I fell in love with that type of mentality. So when I went to dream college and I went to Auburn, I carried those same traits, barring. I never drank steel to this day. You never drank beer? Never drank a beer.

Not one. No. In my life. Or any hard alcohol. I'll drink wine. Uh huh. I mean, that's alcohol. That's basically beer.

Hard liquor though. We got a guy here who talks about his sobriety and he still smokes weed and eats mushrooms. That's not. That's not me. I'm never sure. Well, before we switch topics real quick, I got one more. Jersey Jerry, by the way, that's Ben Mence.

We're talking about that. One more question here and then you guys can take wherever you want. Oh shit, see, Bordles. Look at him. That's our guy. Yeah. We had that conversation.

Um, which, which, uh, path was sweeter. The journey to the national championship or the journey to the Super Bowl. Good question. Because as he's talking about leaving Florida, being there, then going to Auburn, Auburn, they were nothing. And that iron bowl was all time going there. It's almost like Kobe winning it without Shack, right? Can I flex? Yeah. All right. Please. There's two times in my life where I could not do no role. And there's two times in my life that I was 14 and no.

Auburn, 2015. Mike, that's crazy undefeated. Undefined. Like in an NFL, like I'm talking like, and had I, and this is a backstory, we lost a game that I did not practice that week. At that time, Carolina didn't have an indoor facility, so we were practicing, like we're doing like a lot of walkthroughs, the weather was bad,

and then the day that it cleared up, my son chosen was born. So I skipped practice. And we were having these kind of face time calls, like we're putting this end, or the, I was already in Atlanta, thank God we played in Atlanta. And my girlfriend at the time had chosen.

And I was like, yo, it was Christmas Eve. It was just so many different distractions. So had I had a great week of practice or a week of practice would probably be undefeated. Yeah, but I think it had to be Auburn. Yeah, I thought you would say that, that's sweet. But I had a title, yeah. Yeah, we won, but everybody knows,

Auburn is like the little brother to Alabama and since day one being on campus it was like but we almost beat Alabama right you know but we all I'm like man motherfucker this shit is always to beat the motherfucker It ain't to compete it's the beat Yeah

and you know I think to compete is the beat. Yeah. And, you know, leading is something that I knew, it wasn't gonna be a verbal kind of leadership tactic. It was gonna be a, I'm gonna show you, motherfuckers. This is how I do it, you know what I'm saying? And as that season kept going, my life completely changed after that Saturday night game versus

South Carolina and I no longer could go to class. It was just a zoo and I just remember people were so blown away by the fact that Auburn's winning. They've always had a good defense but it's the offense. Yeah, I'm saying. And people also forget that I was only at Auburn for 12 months. Yeah. Dang, N&O. So, left's quite an impression.

I mean, listen, what guy has for you, bro, is for you, and it's no denying that. So, then I made an impact. I just threw a quick jab and got the hell out of there. So that altered my approach to the NFL too because leaving Florida, I was that Florida longer than I was at any other school. So I floored it for two years. Juco for one year, we won the National Championship in junior college as well. Then I won a National Championship at Auburn. But I'm not, I don't have off seasons with people.

You know what I'm saying? And like you guys know, like after this show, whatever, like you guys families may connect, or you may say like, bro, it's Thursday, bro, like it's half off wings, like this is our deal. I never had that in college. Everybody was getting to know, it's like, hey, yo, I think that's Ken,

that's the new quarterback, five star got, yeah. Tammy biggest head. Like a ghost, hey, yo, I think that's can. That's the new quarterback five star got. Yeah. Tammy biggest. Hey, like a ghost. Yeah. Yeah. Get it out. Yeah. So when I got to Carolina, that was something that my teammates was like,

bro, you're going to be here for a long time. More than just a year, you got to lean into, you know, people in relationships. Yeah. Interesting. And it fucked with me, because, you know, I came on my fault, but I came on a team where Steve Smith was trying to leave. And he would tell me how time is like, bro, like I wanna win yesterday.

Right. Like I don't wanna rebuild. I was about a rebuilding phase is, you know, the majority of the times that I was about a rebuilding phase is, you know, the majority of the times that I was here. And, you know, Jordan Gross, Ryan Khalil, these guys are really just saying, like, bro, that's not it. Now, you don't do that. You can't just go a week without talking to nobody. Like, people, they saw Cam is soaking from, you know, losing and things like that. But the truth of the matter was that I didn't know how to lose

because I didn't lose for two years. Right. Right. Think about that. That's a good big sense. I never lost. It's like a pros fighter. You know what I'm saying? It's like I went to Juco and really for three,

because like when I first got to Florida, we won a national championship. Yeah. Then we had an off year, still won. And then that following year, Tibo wins the Hossman and we went wanted national championship. Yeah. Then we had an off year still one. And then that following year, Tibo wins the Hivesman and we win the national championship again. That year I left. Now I'm taking those attributes and saying, all right, and during college, what am I going

to do? Win. Okay, boom, we win the national championship there. Then what I got to Auburn, what are we going to do? Win. We won that. And it was, I was already a professional prior professional prior to like I wasn't in the moment like After the national championship

Everybody went back to Auburn and they celebrated they rolled to much corny they had a good time what I do I go to Flot of LA and like the teams going to Auburn or Alabama. I'm flying L.A. to do David Letterman. Yeah, right Yeah, that's why you should never draft a quarterback who wins a lot in college. Yeah, draft a bunch. Draft a loser. Interesting. No, no, no, no.

They'll be ready to lose in the NFL. But it's just still a process. It's still a process. I mean, that was some of the things that I had to do a lot of soul searching and realized like a lot of what I thought was winning energy is not and it's a different monster in NFL and guys like Bryce-Shung have to know and like

just a field. It's a process from the fans, from ownership to the management. It's a process and the the best that we can get them comfortable, the better off they're gonna be. I'm curious, Noah, because he's talked about forgiveness a couple of times. Have you ever made forgiveness with Rosemary Ploren? Do you know who that is? Is that name ringabelt to you?

She wrote a letter to the Charlotte observer back in like 2015, because she took her daughter to a game. Do you remember this letter? No, no, no. Were y'all just not talking about this? We were talking about celebrations. back in like 2015 because she took her daughter to a game. Do you remember this letter? How did it work? Were y'all just not talking about this? We were talking about celebrations. Yeah.

And this was after the game of the Nashville, Tennessee Titans. We were just talking about it. Yeah, yeah. So this is Rosemary's letter, all time letter to the editor. I actually think they sold... Celebration. Like hundreds of thousands of papers

because the letters to the editor regarding Cam Newton. Yeah, you were a lot of people mad. were fire. Um, here's what Rosemary said, because of where we sat, we had a close up view of your conduct in the fourth quarter, the chest puffs, the pelvic thrusts, the arrogant struts and the in your face taunting of both the Titans players and the fans. We saw it all because your role model, your behavior brought out the like behavior in the stands. Some of Panthers fans in our section began to taunt the hometown fans. Many Titans fans booed you.

A few offering instructive but necessarily family friendly suggestions on how you might change your behavior. My daughter since the change immediately and started asking questions. Won't he get in trouble for doing that? Is he trying to make people mad? Do you think he knows he looks like a spoiled brat? I didn't have great answers for it honestly in an effort to minimize your negative impact and what was otherwise a really fun day I redirected her attention to the cheerleaders and the mascot

So because you I think you dabbed I think you dabbed in rosemary's face And she was like that's disgusting. How do I explain that to my daughter? Well the hip thrust that's not a part of My celebration. She's talking about like your Elvis. Yeah no that so that Comment led to What we saw on the Thanksgiving gang with the cow, because I think we played them next that following a week.

So I did the twist. Oh, yeah. That was like, my kind of, hey, I heard you talking, maybe I'm going to do a dance that you can relate to. And then, you know, do the little thing and then add my thing at the end. Yeah. So it never, I was so comfortable in my skin. I've always been the outcast, even in my family.

And being misunderstood, being a stereotype. So when I see different, it doesn't, it doesn't make me go away like most people, if anything, it makes me interested, interested into that person, that thing, that whatever it is, and hell different. Yeah. I'm like, yo, hold on. Let me get my own perspective about what this is, right?

And that article is just a perfect example of what my career was because a lot of people took chances on me, Brad French Young, my head coach at in junior college, Gene Chizek, Gus Malzahn, Curtis Looper, Trooper Taylor, like these guys at Auburn. Chizek was the reason I landed at UCF believe it. Yeah, Jean Chizek and even with Marty Herney and and Ron Rivera draft me or or bitcat Mr. Richardson Dracked me number one overall like these things are a reason why it's like bro

or all, like these things are a reason why it's like, bro, it's okay to be different, but I think I always say this, that's the number one reason why we have racism, prejudice and sexism, any type of grouping in this country, because people aren't curious to find out for themselves. They make they Preconceived notion like why is he wears hair like that instead of say hey, Kim like Are those dreadlocks rather than just saying like no, I don't like it. It looks nappy You can ask the same question though So like what you saying you can be like why are you where you're here like that?

Or you'd be like why are you here like that? saying, you can be like, why are you wearing your hair like that? Or you'd be like, why are you wearing your hair like that? Like the curiosity, like I had it. It's like curiosity. Right. Something is lost. I've had it so many different times where, no, they won't never say like, why do you wear your hair like that?

They just won't say anything. No, that's what I'm saying though, but it's to your point. Tell me why you wear that. You're hair like that. There's a curiosity too. Then there's like a judgment. Right.

You can ask the same question. There's things. I do want to say this real quick. Let's do, I want to give you your flowers. You're really good at what you do. We know you, Big Cat. We all feel like you guys have been doing this a long time, but one, you're a really good reader.

Okay, so Rosemary, you know. Good reader. And like you do your fucking, your research. I appreciate that. You are super talented, and I want to give you your flowers. Good job. Thank you, man. You guys are good. I appreciate that. I appreciate that you are super talented and I want to give you your flowers. Thank you. Oh, thank you, man You guys are really good to appreciate that. I appreciate flowers This is not we're having this conversation right so it was like yo bro like you're athlete and you're doing all this media stuff

I'm like no bro. Don't consider me an athlete. I'm a youtuber I just did my show and then One of my producers was like, yo, can we just take a couple pictures for you? And then he don't even know what he did, but he just shitted on my hope, right? He was like, oh, YouTube. Yeah, no, too. Oh, guys, you know what I'm talking about.

Yeah, YouTube, I remember those days. Yeah, my mom. No, no, what it is is so funny because our guys do the same thing where they have a camera and they come up to you And they're like I need to take a couple pictures and like act mad act happy. Yeah, be surprised and I'm like I this is YouTube I had I had one last question. This has been awesome I had one last question. This has been awesome. Everyone do listen, I am athlete, fourth and one.

Go out to the iconic tour when they're in your city. My last question was rowback question, rhoback.com, promo code take, 20% off first purchase, QZPs, polos, hoodies, joggers, shorts. So this is a theory that I stumbled upon a couple of weeks ago with the Broncos right now it applies to Broncos.

And I was like, as soon as we get another, you know, couple of guys on who played in the league, I'd love to get their take. The Broncos season has turned around because the theory is that trade deadline happens, they're supposedly sellers, they're gonna sell everyone off, and then nothing really happens,

and then they have everyone in that room and they're like, this is what we got. And we no longer have to think about who's leaving, who's coming, what are we doing? Like, now we just gotta figure out ourselves. Has that happened in locker rooms where you had a moment in the season where it's like, okay, this is us, we're not getting outside help.

No one's leaving, this is us, we gotta go figure out ourselves. Yeah, so I'm going to be very direct here. And as to why this season turned around. Okay. Starts with leadership and starts with one guy, Russell Wilson. This is a guy that walks into the locker room into the facility every day. He doesn't change change He doesn't fold even when it fucking hurts. Yeah, it's we've said he feels it hurt. Yeah, he feels it That's leadership I'll show up at the same time every day winter, winter loose. We're gonna have this Tuesday meeting winter loose

I'm gonna pep in my step on the practice field winter lose. You know how many people fold in those moments change up Player coaches try to act tough tough coaches try to be player coaches. No That's it now obviously defensively they go from last year top five then they turn into the worst Defense in the league Okay, and then all of a sudden they switched van Joseph, he turns it around, so that's a big deal. 16 turnovers through these five game win streak, only giving up 20 points, huge deal. But you gotta understand like when a Cam Newton walks in a room

or Russell Wilson walking the room, like there to, what is it, the thermostat? Like there, there to one, this is gonna set the tempo. So if you got your head down, everybody else gonna get their put their head down, pack it up. Russell Wilson for two years, a year and a half came in and just stayed the same.

But he definitely felt it for sure. And so my theory is that the turnaround happened because Russell Wilson and his unwavering faith, he never folded, even when it hurt. I like that. Because it's true, there were some tough times. He was, he was getting shit on a lot ourselves included. I think people don't give the respect to the process

enough credit. And of course, leadership, right. But nobody believes or gives moral victory And of course leadership, right? But nobody believes or gives moral victories for losing. There are so many different times where a game was to be won if this would not have happened. Some mistakes are not, you can't come back from certain mistakes happening. A blown coverage, a holding penalty, a bad play, a la, this past weekend, Auburn

and Alabama. Those games are decided. Some mistakes are forgiven. Some mistakes are certain processes with a team to say like yo, we're three and five right now That doesn't make us a bad team. We just had some bad breaks that three and five those five games that we lost may have been A great play by the opposing team a Missed holding call in coverage nobody cares about us not losing, you know, a one-score game, but the reality of it is we're not too far away, right? Sometimes you get rewarded for insufficient season calls, and sometimes you get punished for insufficient season calls. So,

with that being said, it's just like, it's not necessarily luck. It's just the process. When teams are bumping, they have a good locker room. Leadership is there, skill is there. That cohesion is there. And you see it. So yeah, with the Denver Broncos, is it something to put your finger on one thing? It's like, no, it's like they never was off.

Outside of the game with the dolphins. They got the. Yeah. And until your point to what to cams point to big piggyback off of that opening day, they played a raider 17 16. You know, how do we correct there? Yeah. And you played the commanders 35 33.

And then you had a dolphins game 70 to 20 big deal. But then you come back and you play the Bears, you win 31, 28. And then you lose to the Jets 31, 21. These are all winnable games. And even if you watch, you know, the Broncos lose to the Chiefs. I think that was Thursday night football or Sunday night football was 18, 19. But they were in that game until the fourth quarter. It's an afterthought.

Yeah, people forget that. I'm sorry, go. No, that's it, but it's like, that's, you know, it's like bringing a two together. It's like in that, like when you are in the valley, when you're in the trenches, when your face with adversity, how do you show up? Right?

I mean, some of the great ones that I've seen, like even Eli Manning, like the end of my career, did the same thing every single day. He sat in the same seat every single day. He ate the same food every single day, no matter what. I can't change, he's just always saying, I can't break routine. Hey bro, we just landed in Detroit.

Let's go, the dinner. Ah, I gotta go get a massage. I can't break routine. It's like, you know, so the leadership there has, I said this at dinner last night. And Mike Shula told me this, it's never as good as you make it seem and it's never as bad as you make it seem.

It's about your perspective though, right? And offensive football is the ultimate team sport, not defensive football, not special teams. It's offensive football is the ultimate team sport, not defensive football, not special teams. It's offensive football. And when you sit back and you just think about so many different determining factors with football as a whole,

the greats, the parades, the mannings, the, you name it right Bordles Bordles, right? I'm pretty sure he's had Blake Bordles were talking about He could have been a Super Bowl winning quarterback. He should have been he got hose in that in that AFC champion Oh no, but nobody talks about that. That's an afterthought for so many different people. You just, yeah. Those things, was it an on-site kicker?

It was Miles Jack. Miles Jack was ruled down. He wasn't down. Yes. Those things, people don't remember. But when you go back and you watch these games, and for Thanksgiving, we saw they had the cambo, or the cam back, the bowl, the iron bowl.

And I was, remember looking at this game, and I was saying, I said, what if he would have dropped that ball? What if Antoine Carter punched a ball out from Mark Ingram while he was running in the ball, just roll miraculously 20 yards to get a touchback. Like, yo, these things are like, like what if the Charles Woodson sack was called a fumble? Yeah, by the way. The tuck room.

What if Adam Vittentary would have just said, you know, a fuck you, I'ma miss this. You know, like, it's, what if, it's so many what ifs in sports that after you lose, no one cares. Yeah. And but the reality of it is, it's not as good as you make it seem. It's not as bad as you make it seem. We're not too far off, fellas.

We're three and five as a record, but we're not a three and five football team. The great coaches will their guys who believe in that. The great players lead their team to saying, let's put this into perspective. We still have a chance. Yeah. If you catch it sooner enough, those are unforgivable mistakes. Leaning on rookies.

Like those, you get an asshole guy that comes in. First round draft big. He's new to money. He's going to buy the bent leaves and the Rolls-ers and all things like well, fuck it. Hey, we need you to make sure that you know what you supposed to do on these checks When I get corner cat my fucking look you running your regular right? I don't got time for you to run a 15-year-old dig But you got to do it. I don't fade Coach went over that all week matter of fact

I'ma tell you when I've tapped my helmet, bro Even though it's gonna be subtle, I see a three-tick in a shade right here. That's equivalent to third and sixth to eighth, this quarter-nader loves this blitz. He's blitzing off your stuff, like those things. When they get it. Yeah.

You've been watching tape, huh? You watch it, too. Yeah. Yeah. I'm like, oh, shit, that's all. Yeah. He coming. I heard you got it. It's great's all. He coming. But God.

It's great answer though, yeah. But God, but when you get guys like that and you sound like, yo, bro, hey, you do it. And then he sees it. But boom, he said, why didn't he say that? You're expecting them to run a back show to fade or to idle fade. You throw it in anticipation. It's a pick six. You come to the silent like, yo, bro, what's going on?

You got to ask Horricky, like, man, fuck, they get out my face. It's like no bro. That calls us the game right we was trying to tell you this shit in Wednesday meeting But you mother fucking looking at your phone Damn and shit like it's you worried about your food Man fucked your food like those type of things the ones who get it they get it. Do you ever go too far with that? Like getting on somebody? I had to get some straightener. But a lot of people just think shit sweet though, because of the hats and outfits and things like that.

You gotta know what changed. Volume one, there must have been like a FaceTime or a follow up. Like there was the text conversation. You had felt like we were missing holes. A little bit like kind of flirtatious, kind of not. And then just like, hey, what's up? Bam.

How to give a blow job? How to do anal? Volume two, just like hey, what's up? Bam! How to give a blowjob, how to do anal. Volume two, just being like, I regret the chapter in volume one that said use a lot of teeth. Update, do not use a lot of teeth. Alright, good fire fest. Thanks. Sick boy? Sick boy.

Okay, PFT. My fire fest of the week is that there's something that I've got set up on my phone. String piss. shut the fuck up. Nope. No, and that's actually not the worst thing that's happened to me this week. Believe it or not, I've got something set up on my phone where when it connects to my car speaker automatically, it starts blasting a song, right? And on full volume on my phone, I don't know how I set this up on my phone.

Now some for a lot of people, it's like, oh, the U2 album starts playing or something that you have in your iTunes library. I've downloaded very few songs onto my iTunes library. I usually use Spotify, but one song that I have downloaded is the one that starts playing and it's absolutely gonna fuck me over at some point. Uh-oh. As a joke, I downloaded Eminem's song, FACK.

And it is maybe the worst song of all time, right? It's, it's, it's, it's gonna fight, can come. Yeah, that song. It's, it's so bad. I actually do think it's the worst song of all time. And every time I sit down in my car, at max volume on my speaker, it's Eminem be like, I'm gonna eat that pussy.

And it's, it's bad. It's really, it's bad. It's really it's bad Fortunately enough for me. I've been driving I haven't had any passengers in my car since it started Which is like three four days ago, but there's going to be a time when somebody who should not listen to that song Hopped into my passenger seat and it starts talking about Eminem getting his dick sucked Yeah, that's tough. That's really tough. When I had the Mazda, it used to do that. I listened to music on Spotify.

I also shout out to everyone in Spotify Raps. Very nice, always fun to see. Yeah, that was great. So I don't listen to Apple Music and all my iTunes would just be me downloading the podcast recordings onto my computer so I could edit. And so when I would get in my car, it would just randomly start playing a recording session

of the podcast where we usually record for like 30 seconds or a minute before we start. Yeah. So it would just be like a random conversation of whatever we were talking about from like two years ago. Which is always just like a fun, let's see what we were talking about this day. Yeah.

Sometimes I'd be like, oh shit. Yeah, I'm just gonna read verse two because this is the verse that it's stuck on from M&M, okay? parental advisory if you got kids in the car turn it up. Oh Yeah, God. Oh wow boom that pow. Oh wow. I need a cigarette now. Oh, I'm so fucking hot and you're so fucking hot. Oh my god I want a fucking fact. No, no, not fuck. I said fac K fac K fuck, fuck, fucking freak me. Oh, yeah, girl see baby. They call me Mr. Freaky. Let's call your sister three way have some threesome me so horny and you're such a fucking babe. I want to go down on you fuck you shaved. Oh god damn here. I go again. I'm going to come I am

So that's what plays in my car. Jesus. Every time I sit down and start it up and it's at, when I say max volume, I mean maximum volume in my car. Damn. So I got to straighten that out. That's a lot. Otherwise I'm going to have some explain to do. Yeah. All right, my firefests is I also was sick. I had a stomach thing.

That was a battle. I battled. I lost like probably 10 pounds though, so that's pretty cool. You look great. Yeah, thank you. I do need a haircut. And then I also, I have a game of the year on Saturday, the SEC Championship over.

I'm the firefast. Because it takes a lot out of me, and I'm already weakened by the diarrhea. So I'm already in a fragile state, now I have to get my strength up. I hope you win. Thank you, Jake. Yep.

What max? I'll lose her talk, is that what you're gonna say? No, that's not loser talk. I'm saying I battle hard. You, it's a fire fest. It's a happy thing. It's a happy thing. I'm gonna bat, I don't know if my body is ready.

I need to get rest. I need to sleep. Last time I lost the game of the year, I got sick for a month. How many games of the year do you have in one year? Usually like three or four? I feel like you're a game of the year, the SEC title game every year.

I love it. I love it. It's gonna be so much fun to watch that game. I'm so excited to watch that game. I love that game so much. It is gonna be great. I think this is the best the best week in a football that we've had in quite some time. Yeah. And and we have the crown jewel on the

for and the crown jewel. Capping it off. Did you see Triggs? The guy that does the the cover art for part of my take tremendous artist awesome. Very talented guy. He made a flow chart of which teams are going to get into the playoff. I love that. Yeah. Depending on who won. Yeah. It's psycho. But it's very comfortable. No, it's very simple. I was sitting at my desk. You can meme's gonna test. I was looking at this thing for five minutes,

just going through everything I'm like, still don't get it. It's not a confusing, yeah. It's very simple to fall. It's not a confusing. I think I did end up getting it. I did end up getting it. There's just a lot of arrows and things.

I've never seen, here's the thing Max, is we have not been exposed to that. If we had seen that every year during this weekend, where it's like, here's the college football play of flow chart, then we grew up seeing it, and it's normal to us. But this is the first time I've ever seen four teams with the arrows, here's what happens, here's what happens.

And it took me a good like 10 seconds of staring at it. It's okay. Now I get it. He correctly. He correctly too. Like the Ohio State fans. They have a path, but they don't realize, because I was talking to Big Eve earlier, they need Washington to sneak you in. Because if Oregon beats Washington close, they could be dead. Why would Washington not be the one the one last team that gets in yeah, that's so like that's and Triggs actually called that out perfectly It's in it, you know that happened last year right the black guy snuck in after yeah, there was an Michigan Yeah, there was not as many undefeated teams, right? Okay Jake I can't parallel park It was home in Florida. No, duh. I want to say something so bad, but I can't You can say it no, I can't. You can say it.

No, I can't. I honestly can't. I have zero room to talk to you about maneuvering a car in a parking lot. But you can say it. No, I'm not going to say it. But if you were to say it, I'm not going to say it. I'm not going to say it because then obviously I'm a... I had a...

I had an unfortunate moment where I was a bad driver, so I can't talk about it. Yeah, but it's really hard to do. No, it's not. It's really not with the Florida. They don't make you do that. They just make you do a regular But with is it a new-ish car you were driving? Yeah, they've made they put it on easy mode. Yeah, it is like it's it used to be I Old man yelling a cloud like when we were growing up you have to like the first car you drove like you had to like Really parallel park.

Yeah. Last like five years, they've made it so easy. All the cameras, all the sensors, it's a fucking job. I actually miss it a little bit. I've never had a camera. You've never had a camera? No. So yeah, so you know old-school,

the middle parking. I need to get a car. I just got my car. So you don't even, well, of course you don't have a car. Well, no, I just got rid of my car before I moved to Chicago. Got it. I, I never had a camera have a car. No, I just got rid of my car before I moved to Chicago. Got it. I never had a camera until this car.

And it's easy mode. It's easy mode, but also I've done it for what, like a month, two months, and immediately I'm finding myself being like, how did I ever do this before? Yeah, no, it's bad. It's like when they first invented GPS. Yeah. You're like, wait, you had to look at a map ahead of time.

Yeah. And then you had to know what the different roads were and memorize all that. You should use a printout map quest. You could even before map quest, where it was like, here's a, oh yeah, I remember road Atlas. My dad used to like pull over and you just look at a fucking map. Yeah. Like we're going to get off at this place.

What? That shit happened all the time. That's what you talking about. And you had to like follow along on the road. You had to, it was like, it was some advanced shit. But immediately now that I've got a backup camera and the sensors and all that, I don't think I could go back. Yeah, wait so Jake, with a backup camera

and like you weren't looking at them? Cause I'll back you up in the fact that like sometimes I don't trust him. Didn't, you just didn't know how the car moved. Yeah, there's not a first time driving the car. I don't, okay. Frequently. Oh, this is the first time that's not, that doesn't mean you don't know how to pedal apart. Yeah, there's my first time driving the car. I don't know. Okay. Frequently. Oh, it's the first time that's not that doesn't mean you don't know how to parallel park. I mean, I don't. Okay. Yeah. That also. Yeah. That's right. I had a car in

high school. I couldn't do it. Okay. You know what the most exuding thing is when you have when you have like an audience that's watching you parallel. Oh, it's so easy. I got a question. Yeah. I got a question. I really hope the answer to this is not going to be what it is. Have you ever gotten out of your car and had someone else pay all the park for you? No. Oh, thank God. No.

That would have been bad. That is the ultimate Cuck move. Yeah. Mount Rushmore Cuck moves. We'll do that next summer. That like to be like, Hey, can you please help park my own car for me? No, I'll just leave and find a different spot.

That would be, yeah. If I can't get in there. All right, Jake, you've you're okay. Or sometimes you the person leaving in front of you leaves and it's much easier. Yeah, you know what? One of my favorite moves to do is is when you see somebody about to parallel park, you just walk out there and you start helping. Yeah, direct them. Yeah, without being asked. Yeah. And it's like, I got you, buddy. Yeah. Kind of a kind of a first responder. Yep. Okay, let's finish up the show numbers. 18. 17.
