Send us a text Football. Is. Fun. And the Giants keep reminding us of it as they rolled the Eagles convincingly. Jaxson Dart showed real moxie and earned loud public backing from Brian Daboll—apology to the team doctors and all. If “it’s too early” was our stance on starting Jaxson Dart, we’re rethinking it. Cam Skatteboo capped the night with a TD explosion. Philly check: Jalen Hurts had time, the timing didn’t. Coordinator heat is rising, A.J. Brown is defending the room, and t...
Send us a text This season feels like a simulation. We start with the 4–1 Jaguars—should we rethink Trevor Lawrence and admit Liam Cohen might be great? Then the 2–3 Chiefs: fine or fronting, and what Chris Jones’ effort on the game-winner actually says. Among the 4–1 crowd, we pick the team that’s for real and the one that’s fraud. Chaos file: the Browns trading Joe Flacco a week after benching him—only the third intra-division QB trade since 2001. What were the Browns doing, what are the B...
Send us a text Winners: Bucs, Seahawks, the Neuheisel family, and Ohio State WRs—Emeka Egbuka is a glue-guy mentality in a rising star. Losers: Penn State, the Harbaughs, the Jets, and yes, Mark Sanchez’s timeline. If the NFL playoffs started today, who’s real and who’s pretending? We open with Seahawks–Bucs (early game of the year): Tampa’s late-game DNA keeps cashing while Seattle answers every punch. The Broncos and Bo Nix stun the Eagles—what broke on defense and why ...
Send us a text 49ers upset the Rams at SoFi and everything gets messy—in a good way. Mac Jones looked terrific despite a mash unit around him. Is this a Mac stamp, a Kyle Shanahan masterclass, or a quiet Brock Purdy indictment? And what was Sean McVay doing late—why not put it in Matthew Stafford’s hands? San Francisco’s defense closed, and Kyren Williams learned an Ernest Byner–style goal-line lesson. New segment — SPORTLE (NFL): Top 10 all-time earners in league history. Who surprised us, ...
Send us a text We'll say it - The NFL has a QB problem and expectations are wild. We’re tackling it head-on with a new mailbag that answers your DMs. Benches and pivots first: Joe Flacco sits in Cleveland, Dillon Gabriel gets the nod over Shedeur Sanders—was that always the plan? And did Shedeur passing on the Ravens age differently now that Lamar is banged up? Then the league’s Europe push: more overseas games than ever. Smart growth or a slow bleed on practice time, travel legs, and QB pl...
Send us a text Tie on SNF?! Cowboys–Packers ends with no winner and the internet melts. Should the NFL eliminate ties or keep the chaos? Giants–Chargers: Herbert’s ball security vanished, Jaxson Dart was solid, and Malik Nabers’ ACL injury reignites the turf war conversation in the NFL. Steelers–Vikings: it’s time to talk Old Man Aaron Rodgers and the steady Steelers Chiefs–Ravens: Baltimore gets smoked, Lamar exits in Q3 with an alleged hamstring injury and the “quit” talk starts; Maho...
Send us a text TNF: Seahawks–Cardinals — a “for sure” kick, Marvin Harrison Jr.’s rough drops → redemption TD, and why panic needs context. Sam Darnold is dealing—did the Vikings misread the room? What a true “second chance” unlocks (confidence, role clarity, simpler asks). The Russell Wilson discourse: RG3 hates it, Richard Sherman torches it—where we land on the narrative vs the tape. QB Heat Check: our Top 10 QBs (performance-only) so far. Week 4 slate: favorite matchup and our upset pick...
Send us a text New York is benching Super Bowl-winning QB Russel Wilson and handing the keys to rookie QB Jaxson Dart. We debate the decision, walk through the next five games, and why the timing has us split between “bold” and “setting him up to fail.” Also in this episode: - 49ers lose Nick Bosa (ACL): when does a season become “washed,” and does a Trey Hendrickson trade make sense? - MNF: Lions vs Ravens: same ballsy identity, WRs blocking as a culture tell, and a defense swarming Lamar...
Send us a text QB stock up, stock down. We open with the Bears & Caleb Williams torching Dallas—were we too early to write off this coach-QB marriage? Two first-win speeches, two cultures between Dallas Cowboys DC Eberflus and Chicago Bears HC Ben Johnson Then: Baker Mayfield MVP watch (4th-quarter DAWG with the receipts), and whether Daniel Jones belongs in the way-too-early conversation. - Penix gets yanked, Atlanta whispers Kirk Cousins—what happens when teams bail on QBs too early? ...
Send us a text College football heat check. We open with the impossible job of keeping fanbases happy—why every presser is a referendum and what Brian Kelly did (and didn’t) say. We handicap current CFP paths, circle this week’s must-watch matchups, and stare down the Oregon–Oregon State “Civil War” with a historic spread and a first-year HC (Trent Bray) who isn’t exactly radiating swagger. Then to the NFL: the Bills smack the Dolphins, Miami falls to 0–3, and Josh Allen becomes the fastest Q...
Send us a text Baker Mayfield keeps closing games like a psycho—leading the NFL in 4th-quarter TDs since ’23—and we break down why his late-game traits travel. Then we ask: is Justin Herbert turning into the Josh Allen 2.0 — a true “lab-made” QB finally moving the needle? Plus: JJ McCarthy’s injury (and why a reset helps), Carson Wentz’s return, the most surprising 2–0/0–2 teams, a quick power-ranking check, and what’s really going on with Mahomes’ two-year dip. Drop your...
Send us a text The Bengals let Joe Burrow get battered (turf toe) — cash-poor vibes, no cart, and a franchise failing its QB. At what point does he say "Enough is enough - goodbye"? The Chiefs are 0–2 for the first time since 2014—losing the magic or early noise? Thoughts on Kelce’s sideline blowup. And yes, Sirianni’s legit. SNF stinker?: young QBs struggled and defense was the real story; JJ McCarthy couldn’t find Jefferson or anyone in Vikings purple as Michael Penix Jr. did just enough ...
Send us a text Packers stamp the Commanders on TNF—2–0, real defense, and pass-rush juice showing Micah Parsons–level impact by the Next Gen numbers. Tucker Kraft went off (SHEESH). Bad news in San Francisco: Brock Purdy (turf toe, 2–5 weeks) and George Kittle to IR—are the 49ers suddenly cursed? QB Stock Market: who’s rising/falling after Week 1? Where we land on Jayden Daniels, C.J. Stroud, Bo Nix (yes, it’s early). Plus Tom Brady’s quarterback wisdom from Cowherd—how it applies this week. ...
Send us a text Did we just watch the best Week 1 in NFL history? We hit the biggest highs—and the uncomfortable truths. Caleb Williams + Chicago Bears Concerns - Missed a would-be TD late on 4th; rough day by the metrics. - Kurt Warner’s defense vs our tape notes: where we actually land. - Swag ≠ substance: when it helps—and when it hurts. JJ McCarthy + Minnesota Vikings Earned the Win - Captain stuff: operation, toughness, and the snap-to-snap answers you want from a rookie. - Big fo...
Send us a text Overreactions only. Week 1 gave us classics, chaos, and a pile of bad takes—so we’re sorting what’s real vs noise from every headline you care about. 0:00 - 🔥 NFL Week 1 Intro 0:41 - NFL Playoff Energy: Lamar Jackson vs Josh Allen Allen got the late edge in an instant classic, but Lamar + Derrick Henry looked like a bully-ball cheat code (that 4th-quarter clock-eater says plenty). Also: why Kyle Hamilton already plays like a “best at his position” safety. 10:32 - Steel...
Send us a text Dak Prescott looked elite—even in a loss. Dallas fell late in Philly, but the tape says Dak was on time & in rhythm. We break down why CeeDee’s drops swung possessions, and where the Cowboys actually graded out. Tonight: Chiefs vs Chargers (Brazil) - Chargers haven’t beaten KC in 3 years—is this the spot? Justin Herbert + Keenan Allen back together; why L.A.’s run game could be the swing. Plus, Chiefs/Chargers field/end-zone noise—does any of it matter? Also in this episo...
Send us a text An NFL execs & coaches poll on “which QB you’d start a franchise with” just dropped—and it’s spicy: Lamar Jackson below Jayden Daniels. We break down what the list got right, who got disrespected, and which QBs will surprise or sink their teams this season. Then we hit FOX’s new Power Rankings (actual shockers), the Micah Parsons podcast fallout in Dallas (why the room’s “happy it’s over” and why the injury isn’t nothing), and Johnny Manziel still blaming the Browns—does he...
Send us a text Texas and Notre Dame lost, but there’s real hope. We flip the Week 1 overreactions and focus on what traveled on tape—young QB growing pains that actually project forward. - Notre Dame at Miami: CJ Carr took hits and kept his composure; why Jeremiah Love needs more touches - Arch Manning vs Ohio State: rough start, but real keeps—protection IDs, a few layered throws, poise after the first miss; credit to Matt Patricia’s plan - Alabama at FSU: “Then vs Now”—what’s truly missing...
Send us a text Micah Parsons has been traded. We break down who actually won the deal, why Jerry Jones thinks Dallas can win more this way, and whether this is the kind of roster math we feared with the Trey Hendrickson situation. Plus: the new highest-paid non-QB list and whether GMs are making hard calls…or missing obvious ones. NFL - Parsons trade reaction: winners/losers, scheme fallout, cap flexibility vs. elite edge scarcity - Jerry Jones's logic: short-term wins, locker-room dynamics,...
Send us a text The Cleveland Browns and Shedeur Sander saga continues, with conspiracies popping up about the way head coach Kevin Stefanski has been handling his reps and development. Couple that with the fact that Shedeur's brother, Shiloh Sanders, was ejected from his final preseason game and then released the next day, and you've got some theories swirling. Micah Parsons added some interesting elements to his ongoing negotiations with Jerry Jones and the Dallas Cowboys as he was see...
