Okay, go ahead.
Chad Ochocinco
The team beat the Colts for two quarters, including overtime. Chris Jones and the rest of the defense dominated the Colts offense, which allowed the Chiefs to exit Arrowhead with a motion much needed 23:20 comeback victory. After the game, it looked like Mahomes took a shot at the chief's coaching staff when he praised Lou Amarula. Amarulo Ocho. Take a listen to what my homeboy had to say. Yeah, they definitely do some of the stuff. I mean, Coach Anarumo is a great defensive coordinator, great coach, and he has this stuff. But I think what makes him such a great defense coordinator is he kind of tailors his team, tailors his scheme to the team that he's playing with. And so he wants to go with their strengths and so getting their guys in the best position to succeed. And even from some of the trades.
Commercial Announcer
They made, they've adjusted their defense as well.
Chad Ochocinco
And so I think that's that's something that makes him a great coach, is that he's not stuck in his ways of like how he calls the thing. He he adjusts his scheme to the team that's around him and obviously they've done a lot of great things this year. If you go back and study Ocho, if you look at them, what defense has given Patrick Mahomes the most trouble? The Cincinnati Bengals. Yeah, who's their coordinator, the guy that said end it.
Shannon Sharpe
And you know, you know what's funny is you think about how difficult the Chiefs in the Bangal games are or how, how difficult they make it for Patrick Mahomes and look at what he has to work with over there in Indianapolis.
Chad Ochocinco
Yes.
Shannon Sharpe
Supporting cast of players he has to be able to. To pull off making those games even more difficult. As opposed to the Bangle defense, which most consider to, you know, to be bad. You know, in a sense. So I mean, to Davious Ward. Goddamn Sauces out there. Zaire, Franklin, they got a really, really good squad. Really, really good squad. When Buckner coming back?
Chad Ochocinco
I don't know. There's a possibility he might not come back. No, not this year. Yeah.
Shannon Sharpe
Oh, hey, man. He the real, he, the real he.
Chad Ochocinco
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. He's. He, he, he's. He's the disruptor. He's the, he's the, he's the guy that you circle says, okay, we got to deal with him.
Shannon Sharpe
Yeah. But, but my home Mahomes. Almost, almost. You know, I think he was trying to do too much. Mahomes were trying to be Superman today, huh?
Chad Ochocinco
He, he missed some throws. Hollywood Brown had sauce beat bad on the go ball.
Shannon Sharpe
Yeah.
Chad Ochocinco
And, and Mahomes missed it. He had Trav on a, on a. On the uncover quick and he missed him.
Shannon Sharpe
Yeah.
Chad Ochocinco
He had juju on the over route. Route and he missed him overshot. So there's opportunities that are there that Mahomes normally wouldn't miss.
Shannon Sharpe
Yeah.
Chad Ochocinco
Good thing Rashid Rice showed up today. Kareem Hunt. Look, Kareem's gonna get your hard fought yards.
Shannon Sharpe
Yeah.
Chad Ochocinco
He's not, he's not what he would like his rookie his first two years. Ocho, he's not that guy.
Wilmer Valderrama
Right.
Shannon Sharpe
He was nasty, but he's solid.
Chad Ochocinco
He's gonna get you some hard fought yards, some hard ones, some hard three. He'll break a tackle. Good on the goal line. But Oo the problem that they're having is that when they get into the red zone, oo they had a 17 play drive, settle for three. They had a 14 play drive, settle for three. Had a 13 play drive, settle for three. They had a 14 play drive, settle. Ocho, you know this.
Wilmer Valderrama
Yeah.
Chad Ochocinco
You kick field goals, you get your ass kicked.
Shannon Sharpe
Yeah.
Chad Ochocinco
You score touchdown. Now you really, really put pressure on an opposing team. That is their problem. The problem is they used to be automatic when they got into the red zone every time.
Shannon Sharpe
Hold on. Not. Not only automatic when they got into the red zone. The creativity between Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid, it was unbelievable. Remember all the tricks they used to do? All the.
Chad Ochocinco
Yeah.
Shannon Sharpe
And doing all, you know, have. Dude, that's not working anymore. Because now the film is out there. Now the film is out there. So it's a little different. Everything is a little bit more difficult.
Chad Ochocinco
Yeah.
Shannon Sharpe
You know, once you don't want three Super Bowls already. It's the same offense. Everybody's seen almost everything. You have to. You have today. So therefore it becomes that much more difficult.
Wilmer Valderrama
We.
Shannon Sharpe
People were talking. Okay, The Chiefs are down. They're five and five. They're 500 for the first time and who knows how long. But again, keep talking.
Chad Ochocinco
My computer's messed up. We f. We f. To do something, but you keep going. Keep going. Keep talking about the Chiefs.
Shannon Sharpe
Okay. Any.
Malcolm Gladwell
Any.
Shannon Sharpe
Anyway, chat. Listen, I. I think when it. When it comes to the Chiefs, right, as bad as they've been this year, they're 5 and 5. Obviously we're not used to them being 5 and 5, but they're gonna be all right. Anytime you have a quarterback like Patrick Mahomes, anytime you have a quarterback like Patrick Mahomes, he can put that team on his back similar to what he did today. He almost lost the game a little bit because he was trying to do too much. Trying to do too much. Trying to be Superman, trying to carry the load himself. The commentators talked about it. I'm sure he knows as well. But Rashid Rice had one hell of a goddamn today day. Today. He was 8 foot. He had what, 8 for 141. Kareem Hunt with 30 for 104 and shoot. That's it. So Chad is just me and y' all right now. Welcome to Nightcap with oo. Oh, you still there, huh? Oh, you back?
Chad Ochocinco
Back. Oh, here it is right here. Hold on.
Shannon Sharpe
You good? I. I got it. The rest of the way. Go ahead and chill.
Chad Ochocinco
The Chiefs had a 17 play drive, 64 yards, 3 points. They had 18. They had a 13 play drive that took 8 minutes and 12 seconds. 3 points. They had a 10 play drive that 84 yards at 81 yards, 3 points, 5. Then they had 5. Then they fumbled. Then they had 11 play drive. 11, 11 play drive that resulted in a touchdown.
Shannon Sharpe
And.
Chad Ochocinco
And then Ocho to end the game. They had a 15 play drive.
Wilmer Valderrama
Yeah.
Chad Ochocinco
For 87 yards. And at that point in time, they were just trying to get in the get. Got the field goal and then the field goal to end win the game. Ocho another 12 plays. So that's 12. Let's see. 27, 30, 41, 46, 51, 54, 64, 77, 94. They had 96 play. Let me see if my math because I was quick in my head, you know? You know what I'm saying? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. You know, I'm just. Do. I'm just, you know, I'm speeding through the things. Let me see.
Shannon Sharpe
The hell.
Chad Ochocinco
They had 91. So minus the penalty, they had 90, 91 actual. Actual plays. That's crazy. Ultra. You don't normally see that many plays and an NFL game.
Shannon Sharpe
No, not. Not today. 6570 is. Is the norm.
Chad Ochocinco
Yeah. 6065 is. No. Is norm.
Shannon Sharpe
Right.
Chad Ochocinco
91, 91 actual call plays.
Shannon Sharpe
Yeah.
Chad Ochocinco
That's crazy.
Shannon Sharpe
Damn. Well, what. What, what you. What? What do you think? What do you think the issue is with the Chiefs obviously not being able to score once they get into the red zone, as they were automatic before?
Chad Ochocinco
Okay. They run, they won the wildcat with Travis Kelsey and then, you know, John pulls the guy's helmet, they call it back so you got to settle for a field goal.
Shannon Sharpe
Right.
Chad Ochocinco
Whereas before they were like you said, the creativity. They were able to get the ball into the end zone. Yeah, some razzle dazzle play. Flip it here, there, you know, shovel pass to the tight end, shovel pass to the back. They were always quick screen, you know, quick screens, get the ball into the end zone. Right now it's a struggle once they get inside the 20 because now it's condensed and so. And they're not getting the home run. Because you remember, Ocho, these. Remember how they used to complete the big play over the top when they had Tyreek. Now once they got rid of Tyreek, the offense completely changed because they didn't have anybody that can get over the top.
Shannon Sharpe
The top, yeah, they do have everything.
Chad Ochocinco
With like, ding, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping.
Shannon Sharpe
And the funny thing about it, even though they had the ping it and t. I call, I'm call it Tiki Taka. They had the Tiki Taka all the way down the goddamn field. But because you had Patrick Mahomes, you're still able to have success just doing that. Because he can make the right decision with the ball and not make mistakes.
Chad Ochocinco
But see what happens when you play that type of game, Ocho? You got to be perfect. You see, the thing is, I mean, he tried to go with a quick pass. Guy gets his hands up, he picks it off. Now he's got the ball. They got the ball at the one yard line.
Shannon Sharpe
That's. Now, that's unfortunate.
Chad Ochocinco
Yeah. And see, but here's the thing. What? What did they tell the mocho? The ball's gonna come out quick, so get your hands up.
Shannon Sharpe
Get your hands up. Yeah.
Chad Ochocinco
Chief's upcoming schedule at Cowboys, Texas at home, Chargers at home at Titans, Broncos at home at Raiders. Hey, schedule again, Thanksgiving at Cowboys, then that Sunday Night Football. They get the Texans at home, then they got Raiders at home. Then the on the roll Texans. Excuse me. Titans bank, then Christmas, they get the Broncos and then tbd Raiders.
Wilmer Valderrama
Damn.
Chad Ochocinco
Well, by that time the Raiders, everybody be living in. Everybody be living in the hotel. Cuz they be done pack their stuff up, they ready to go. Oo.
Shannon Sharpe
Hey, well, honestly, listen, uncle, if you play in Vegas, it really ain't no. Ain't no need to really rush back home. If you in Vegas, I mean.
Chad Ochocinco
Yeah, but you just want to get away. Oo. Cause you've been in the grind, you've been, you've been here. I just want to get away. I can always come back, but I'm gone, right?
Shannon Sharpe
I got you.
Wilmer Valderrama
I got you.
Shannon Sharpe
I got you. I got you.
Chad Ochocinco
The outcome that everybody expected. The Patriots beat the Bengals by the score of 26 to 20. Mike Grables, New England Patriots became the first NFL team to reach 10 wins. Joe Flacco. Oo, Chad, y' all remember I told Ocho, I said, oo, Joe Flacco, he gonna start out hot, right? I mean, he gonna be hotter than. He gonna be hotter than four foxes in a forest fire. Yeah, but he'll turn over machine.

Commercial Announcer
I'm Malcolm Gladwell, host of the podcast Smart Talks with IBM. I recently sat down with Chairman and CEO Arvind Krishna, and I asked him, how can companies use AI to its fullest potential to create smarter business?
Malcolm Gladwell
My one advice to them, pick areas you can scale. Don't pick the shiny little toys on the side. For example, if anybody has more than 10% of what they had for customer service 10 years ago, they're already five years behind. If anybody is not using AI to make their developers who write software, 30% more productive today with the goal of being 70% more productive.
Shannon Sharpe
Yeah. Wow.
Malcolm Gladwell
So we are not asking our clients to be the first experiment on it. We say you can leverage what we did. We are happy to bring out all our learnings, including what needs to change in the process. Because the biggest change is not technology. It's getting people to accept that there's a different way to do things.

He wasn't where he's supposed to be. You know that. He cheated up. He stayed up much closer. How could you not, as a quarterback, not see that out using your peripheral? But it was a two shell. Instead of. Instead of going back where he's supposed to be at, he's sitting down there at the line of scripts. I'm like, man, what is he doing?
Chad Ochocinco
Cause guess what?
Shannon Sharpe
What?
Chad Ochocinco
Got a little pressure, and he throw it late. What happens when you throw late to the flat?

Chad Ochocinco
Chad.
Shannon Sharpe

I'm still a banger. I'm still a bangle. I'm. I'm still a Bengal fan at heart, but I never knew. Yeah, I mean, listen, I, I, you know, honestly, I love everybody on the Patriots.
Chad Ochocinco
You told me, right? You told me you played with them bangles and your heart and your team, that you grew up watching the Miami Guppies.
Shannon Sharpe

Chad Ochocinco
That was your two teams. What about you went to the super bowl with the big. With the Patriots? Yeah, yeah.
Rob Gronkowski

No, the ornament on the tree, he really there, but he. He ain't really got no. No, no. Well, doing like the star that's at the top. You feel me?
Malcolm Gladwell
Yeah.
Shannon Sharpe
You know, my days was really over. I was just out there like, okay, this is why they went all the time, you know, and, you know, they're having a good time, enjoying the ride. I. I'm. I ain't really get, you know, to be productive or nothing like that, so I don't really want to claim nothing. I ain't really get no work in, you feel?
Chad Ochocinco
I sure hope y' all got on that prize pick or. Or that parlay I had. I sent that thing out that night for y'.
Commercial Announcer
All.
Chad Ochocinco
I got another one coming for you.
Shannon Sharpe
Hey, you know what I want to see, too? Un. Now we talk about the Bengals, too. Hey, that goddamn Mitchell Tinsley. Yeah, that goddamn Mitchell Tinsley, man. Every time. Every time. Young bull in the game, uncle, he making a play.
Wilmer Valderrama
Game.
Chad Ochocinco
He make plays happen.
Shannon Sharpe
Hey, I need, I need to see him, man. Since the. Since. Since the preseason when he made that one handed catch in the end zone. Every time he in the game, uncle making a play. I'm talking about every time. Today he beat Gonzo. He beat Gonzo at the line of scrimmage. Hey, I'm talking about setting like, oh, hey.
Chad Ochocinco
And you know, at that, at that position, Ocho, if you stop your feet as a corner, it's over, it's a wrap.
Shannon Sharpe
It's A rap.
Wilmer Valderrama
It's over.
Shannon Sharpe
Yeah. You got. You got to keep your feet alive. You got to keep your feet alive. So I would love to see him get a little bit more burnt. T. Higgins went out today.
Chad Ochocinco
Chase is coming back over for Burton. I think Jermaine Burton. I think it's over. Ocho.
Shannon Sharpe
You think?
Chad Ochocinco
So incensey. I'm not saying it's over for him in the NFL. Yeah. But I think his time's up. I mean, he's another healthy scratch. Again, they're down to receiver Chase, and they don't get.
Shannon Sharpe
Yeah, yeah.
Chad Ochocinco
I. I don't.
Shannon Sharpe
I don't know what's going on in that area. You know, I think, if I'm not mistaken, I think Chase and. And T did what they could to take him under his wing. I'm really not in the facility. I don't know the personal things that may be going on, but I know he's an extreme talent. He's an extreme talent. I'm not not comparing him to Pickens. I'm just speaking on. He has a lot of upside, a lot of potential, and I hope he gets on the right chick at. On the right track at some point, even if it's not in Cincinnati, because he can be tremendous. He can be tremendous for some team once you get things going.
Chad Ochocinco
Ocho. The Ravens beat the Jets. The Ravens have gone from one.

5 start the first place tie in the AFC north despite Lamar not had in his MVP form, Lamar has been held on the 200 yards passing for three straight games for the first time in five years. He also has gone back to back games without a touchdown pass for the first time in six years. Lamar was asked if he felt fully helped, felt felt fully himself in the recent weeks and if injuries are holding him in the offense bags. He said, I can't call it but I'm out there so I feel like I should still be able to do what I do. I feel like we just need to execute a lot better. We're getting great field position but we're not putting points on the board and that has nothing to do with no injury. One of the biggest change in the game has been the decrease in Russian. He holds the record for the most rushing yards by a quarterback and he's averaging a career low 29 less than 30 yards rushing per game. And Derek Henry, they came to Ocho. Normally this is when you see the Ravens run the ball 34 times. Yeah, it's normally 200 plus yards.
Shannon Sharpe
Yes sir.

They ran the ball 34 times a day, less than 100 yards.
Shannon Sharpe
Yeah, I mean, hey listen, it's something weird about this season. It's something weird about this season when it comes to certain teams that we're used to seeing be very dominant, especially offensively. The Chiefs, it looks weird. It looks very weird. The Baltimore Ravens, it looks weird. You know, even. Even when they were healthy, they started out owing to unknown. They started out so they really haven't been able to get themselves in a groove before Lamar got hurt. But the fact that they've been able to come back and dig themselves out a hole and Lamar being back now, it gives them a chance. No matter what, they will always have a winning chance. As long as eight is back there, as long as they just back there, they're going to be all right. At some point that offense is going to have to hit their stride, they're going to have to hit their strike because the defense is playing a little better as opposed to how they are. As opposed to how they looked at the beginning of the season. Ain't no way in hell they still.
Chad Ochocinco
I don't want to put too much. I don't want to put too much because they played.
Shannon Sharpe
You can't.
Chad Ochocinco
So let's. Let's.
Shannon Sharpe
Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay. I got you. I got you.
Chad Ochocinco
I mean, they had 26 carries for 76 yards.
Shannon Sharpe
Yeah.
Chad Ochocinco
But for the Ravens to run. For the Ravens, Lamar was 13 to 23. Oh, D. Hot. Ran a stutter. Go. So sweet. And he threw it out the end zone.
Wilmer Valderrama
Yeah.
Chad Ochocinco
Did you see. I don't know if you saw that. Ocho ran a study. Go, Ocho. He runs. He run a stutter. So sweet.
Shannon Sharpe
Yeah. And he missed him.
Chad Ochocinco
And Lamar missed him.
Shannon Sharpe
Yeah, I ain't see. I ain't see that play. Hold on, let me get my charger.
Chad Ochocinco
Go ahead. Lamar was 13 of 23. 153. No touchdowns, no interception. He was sacked once. Derek Henry had 21 carries for 64 yards. Again, as I mentioned, they had 34 rush attempts for 98 yards, but they did have two touchdowns. Derek Henry did get the ball in the end zone twice. But offensively, for something that just. They seem to be off, and I don't know why.
Shannon Sharpe
But this is. This is. This is. This is Lamar. What? It's only, what, second. Those third week back, right?
Chad Ochocinco
Yeah, it's probably about his third week back.
Malcolm Gladwell
Yeah.
Shannon Sharpe
Third week back. I mean. I mean, as. As he goes, the rest of the team goes. So as. As. When he gets back into rhythm and he starts feeling that confidence back again, then I think everything will. Will pick up.
Chad Ochocinco
Well, it's gonna have to. After Sunday's lost, the Jets 2 and 9 have officially clinched their 10th consecutive losing season and extended a brutal streak for the worst. Reports suggest that Glenn's job is safe beyond the 2025 season, but he'll have his work cut out for him if he plans on actually turning the troubling trend around. Ocho, the jets need a quarterback.
Shannon Sharpe
That's it.
Chad Ochocinco
Don't care. I don't care who the coach is. They've had a lot of coaches, a lot of them. Without a quarterback, you're not going to win. And I don't really see anybody in college. I. Look, I'm making a trade for Kyler. If I can give up. If I can give up, I'm not giving up. No first for him. Right. Because I know y' all want to get rid of him, but if I can get Off a second or third Ocho. I, I would do that.
Shannon Sharpe
For Kyler Murray. Do you have any other options? I'm just, just, just thinking who's gonna.
Chad Ochocinco
Be, who's gonna be available?
Shannon Sharpe
I mean veterans that, that can, that can come in and, and make somewhat of a difference.
Chad Ochocinco
No, Mac Jones signed a two year deal with San Francisco, so he's, he's not going anywhere. Sam Darnold's under contract. Baker's gonna be, they're gonna extend Baker. Matthew Stafford probably get another, get an extension. Yeah, I don't see the veteran quarterback Russell Wilson. You, you got Russell, you got Jameis Jameis played. Unbelievable. We're gonna talk about James here in a little bit. I mean Russell Wilson.
Shannon Sharpe
Hey James. Hey man, you know what? James for mvp. I don't give a. My bad. I don't care what nobody do. I don't care about, hey listen, I love Matt Stafford, but James after the day. James for mvp.
Chad Ochocinco
The Lions beat the Giants in overtime. Jir Gibbs ran for a 69 yard touchdown on the first snap of overtime. Had a career high 264 yards from scrimmage to go along with three scores. Giants interim head coach Mike Kafka helped Detroit too. Kafka went forward on fourth and goal from the sixth when his team slumping leading by three instead of kicking a short field goal that would have forced Detroit to score a touchdown. Giants Malik Walker let his frustration be known on Twitter as Malik labor that say Malik Malik neighbors Let his frustration be known on Twitter as he called out his team decision making making against the Giants overtime. This is what he tweeted. Ocho Sometimes I think they be making us lose on purpose. Cause ain't no way for you to throw the ball instead of running it and make them burn them two timeouts then you don't kick the field goal. Then you have to go down and score football. Common sense. The tweet was quickly deleted 1st Jameer Gibbs Ocho man this is college. You don't normally run the ball 15 times for 219 yards. 15 for 219, two touchdowns. And then he caught another 11 for 45 on 12 targets. Army Ross St. Brown had nine for a buck 49 and a touchdown. They look Jameis 18 of 36, 366, two tubs one pick. Hey Gunner Oevsky hit man. What you call the one of that touchdown so bad? Who Jameis James wanted that touchdown so bad.
Shannon Sharpe
He wasn't going. He wasn't going down. Hell no he wasn't going down. But James so funny Unc, man, just having him out there on the field, man, playing was playing with such a smile. He's so entertaining, so infectious, you know, I'm, I'm happy for him. Obviously, I'm not sure if he's starting next week, but if he is starting next week again, I'm gonna be tuned in. I'm gonna be tuned in because just, just seeing him out there, man, it brings just a, a joy for me, you know, as, as someone that can't play the game anymore. I get the vicariously live it through watching him play, man. But that's. Hey, that young bull, one Dale Robinson.
Chad Ochocinco
Wanda himself a day nine for a buck 56 in a tub.
Shannon Sharpe
Boy, you showed up today, boy. Boy, you showed up today. I don't, I don't know where you've been, but they need, need to give you more targets. They need to continue to put you in positions to make them plays. God damn. Well, you was cutting today, boy. You the real, you real deal.
Chad Ochocinco
And the guy that closed the deal at the end of the game, Aiden Hutchinson, got the sack to preserve the victory. Oo, we're starting to see a shift. We're starting to see athletes publicly question their own team. Whereas before oo, we might get like, damn, I don't know what that call was, man. I don't know what that was and I don't know why we did that in that situation. But these guys, as you saw, Malik, neighbors, he put it out there like, bro, what the hell are you doing? Yeah, run the football, make them burn them timeouts. Kick the field goal. We go up by six. Now they need to score a touchdown in order to beat us.
Shannon Sharpe
Yeah, I don't understand. I'm confused. I was thinking it. I mean, I wouldn't tweet it if it was my team, but can you please explain the reason on why they would do that?
Chad Ochocinco
No offer without explanation. I guess he's saying, look, man, he's not wrong, Ocho. We what? We. We two and nine. We two and nine. We got an opportunity to beat the Detroit Lions. That's how he's looking at it. But your defense has done a great job up until that point.
Shannon Sharpe
Very good job.
Chad Ochocinco
I'm gonna kick the field goal. Maybe if at the one yard line. Ocho, I would, I would consider it. But not from the six. Nah, not from the six.
Shannon Sharpe
That's crazy.
Chad Ochocinco
Now if we're at the one yard line, we got Scat Pack. Hey, I'll give it to Scat Pack. I'm gonna give it to Scatterble but in this situation like this, I, I, I get. I. I get the frustration. Mike Kafka, the. In them head coach is like, man, look here, let. We. Hey, we going for it. But they played. I mean, they played as well as they. They played as well as they could, huh? For as long as they could.
Shannon Sharpe
Yeah, they did.
Chad Ochocinco
And it wasn't enough, Ocho.
Shannon Sharpe
Look, it wasn't enough. Honestly. The Giants fought, right?
Chad Ochocinco
Yeah, they did.
Shannon Sharpe
That was a very. That was a very exciting game, a game that I thought the Giants were going to continue to pull away from. I thought they were going to keep pulling away, but they and them goddamn Lions wouldn't go nowhere, man. That goddamn Jameer Gibbs, man, might be the closest thing we have in today's game that's similar to Chris Johnson.
Chad Ochocinco
That's what I was about to say.
Shannon Sharpe
Hey, he's out. How you outrunning the goddamn angle? How you outrun the angle?
Chad Ochocinco
Angle. The angle 20 yards deep.
Shannon Sharpe
You not supposed to be able to do that unless you really, really. You got to be. Tyreek fast. And he. I'm thinking he might be up there with Tyreek.
Chad Ochocinco
When it comes to speed, Ocho, I, I think, for me, I was like, when he hit through the hole, I say, boy, if somebody. If somebody don't. You cannot let. He's a guy that. With that kind of speed, Ocho, you got to make him chop his feet.
Shannon Sharpe
Yeah, man.
Chad Ochocinco
You can't let him. Ocho.
Shannon Sharpe
You got to.
Chad Ochocinco
First of all, he's already eight yards deep. You gonna let him hit the hole? You gonna let it get to the line of scrimmage? He damn near the full sprint.
Shannon Sharpe
Oh, yeah, absolutely.
Chad Ochocinco
He's damn near the full sprint. So now by the time he gets. By the time he get to where the linebacker's supposed to be, yeah, it's a wrap. And the safety. The Ocho got the safety. I don't want to over. I don't want to overrun him and then have him cut back. So I got to try to. I got to try to. I got to try to. I got to try to. Damn. He in the end zone.
Shannon Sharpe
It's too late. It's too late, huh? Because what. Listen, once some guards come off and they engage and goddamn Jameer again get to that second level clean.
Chad Ochocinco
Yes. You done.
Shannon Sharpe
As a safety, if you ain't close the gap, you have no choice. You got to shoot. You got to shoot, because if he's. If he square you up or we catch an angle, unless you got you, you got to be just as fast as him in order to catch him.
Chad Ochocinco
Yeah, they ain't got no safe. They ain't got no safety as fast as him. I wonder what it's. I wonder what his speed hit. He hit 22 miles an hour.
Shannon Sharpe
You think so?
Chad Ochocinco
I think so. Yeah. Yeah.
Shannon Sharpe
He had to respect especially, Especially on that long one. He had to.
Chad Ochocinco
Yeah. Yeah. He a man. He's special. Special.
Shannon Sharpe
Nice.
Chad Ochocinco
He got to be over a thousand yards now, isn't he?
Shannon Sharpe
After the, after tonight, after the night, he definitely got to be over a thousand.
Chad Ochocinco
He gotta be. Cause he just went crazy. Didn't he go crazy last week?
Shannon Sharpe
The week before?
Chad Ochocinco
Yeah. Nine fifty one.
Shannon Sharpe
Damn. That's it.
Chad Ochocinco
Yeah. We have it updated because we don't know if it included today because he been, he been, he been, he been doing something kind of special.
Shannon Sharpe
Jack. Seagulls, Falcons. Damn. I can't believe the Bengals lost, man.
Chad Ochocinco
I can if the Bengals.
Shannon Sharpe
We almost had that game, though.
Chad Ochocinco
Oh, Jam Gill's about to get paid this year. Three is his third year.
Shannon Sharpe
It is.
Chad Ochocinco
It includes today.
Shannon Sharpe
Yeah.
Chad Ochocinco
Yeah. But he ain't got nearly the carries that those other guys got.
Shannon Sharpe
Yeah.
Chad Ochocinco
Man. This. That's what's happened. Oh, you know what it is? Oo. When you lose, you find ways to lose.
Shannon Sharpe
Yeah.
Chad Ochocinco
Teams that win find ways to win.
Shannon Sharpe
Win.
Chad Ochocinco
Yeah, the Jazz just found another way to lose.
Shannon Sharpe
I mean, hey, that play calling was iffy. I'm just gonna be honest. I'm with this. This, this is why. This is why people question. Yeah, this is why people question. Sometime if you heard me. Huh? With games like today or this, this, the decision making coaches and game. This is why they question if, if the games be rigged or not. Because why would you, why would you make the decisions that you made? You know? And now you got your own player calling, calling it out. And I think he deleted it right away because somebody.
Chad Ochocinco
Oh, he did it. But hey, Ocho, you know what happened when you press in?
Shannon Sharpe
Yeah.
Chad Ochocinco
You can't get it. Somebody done screenshotted it.
Shannon Sharpe
Oh, yeah. It's too late. Yeah, too late.
Chad Ochocinco
Then you can't even. You can't press in and then put delete. You can't hit it fast enough.
Shannon Sharpe
I just, I, I don't, I, I, I, I'm, I'm with Malik, though. Like, what are you doing? Like what?
Chad Ochocinco
Yeah, I would. I'm with Malik. I'm with Malik. To myself or to my family?
Shannon Sharpe
Yeah. I ain't gonna say it.
Chad Ochocinco
I can't put that out there with you.
Shannon Sharpe
Hell no.
Chad Ochocinco
But, man, Gills was sensational today, man. This doo doo. This he ridicul. He ridiculous. He up there and catches because I think this is the second double digit. How many catches he got? Cause remember the other time, the other day, ocho, he had 140something yards receiving in like 80 yard, like 70, 80 yards rushing.
Shannon Sharpe
You know. You know what? You know what? He like, he damn near like he's a dual threat. Like Christian. Christian McCaffrey.
Chad Ochocinco
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. He got more speed than McCaffrey, though.
Shannon Sharpe
Oh, yeah, absolutely. Of course. I ain't even close.
Chad Ochocinco
Yeah, he got. He got speed to burn, Ocho. Caleb Williams throws for three touchdowns as the Bears beat the Steelers 3128 with Aaron Rodgers on the sideline. Rogers is 25 and 5 against the Bears from the long tenure in Green Bay, counting the playoff. He once famously turned a crowd at Soldier Field and screamed that he still owns Chicago. But he didn't get an opportunity to play today to show off. That's still the case. Instead, the NFC north leading Bears 8 and 31 for the eighth time in nine games. Caleb Williams, 19 of 35, 239, three touchdowns. They didn't run the ball about four yards of carry. D.J. moore had five catches, 64 yards, two touchdowns. Doomsday had some big catches. Loveland, 4 for 49, a touchdown. Burden the third, 3 for 46. Man, he looked good. Bears look good. Ben Johnson got this team playing. D A. Got that defense getting after the quarterback. Man, I will say this, Ocho. I'll say this.
Shannon Sharpe
Hold on, hold on. Tell me, tell me, tell me.
Chad Ochocinco
Take your time, Caleb. You got to know when the journey's over. Oh, you can't give up. You can't give up. You can't give up seven points on your possession.
Shannon Sharpe
Oh, the safety.
Chad Ochocinco
You got sacked, you know, Watt sacked him and he lost the ball. You can't do that. You can't put your team in harm's way like that. Go ahead. Go ahead and throw the ball away. I mean, you. He's tremendous. He can. Hey, he can throw from the pocket. He can throw rolling right. He got great legs. And get out of harm's way, but you can't do that. Yeah, other than that, I thought you played really, really, really well today. Hello, Joe.
Shannon Sharpe
No, I was just gonna say, man, Ben Johnson and Caleb Williams together has been. It's been magic. They've been pure magic. The Bears have been abysmal, you know, the past few seasons, and obviously they've always been. They've been struggling at the quarterback position. Trubisky brother Fields. But now, now you know, even though there were so many people that, that were doubting Caleb Williams, not understanding. If you get the right coach, if you get the right coach that has the right play calling and can play to his strengths and maximize his potential at that position, this is what you get. You get, you get a Bears, a Bears team that's leading their division. Wait, they are, they are leading the division, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean a nine and three.
Chad Ochocinco
Eight and three.
Shannon Sharpe
Okay. Eight, eight and three. Hey, that might be a team too. You don't want to see. That might be a team. You don't want to see it.
Chad Ochocinco
Extremely. Well, they got a quarterback that's mobile. There's a chance that they're going to have a home game. You ain't really trying to, are you really trying to be out there and so you trying to be outside in that weather? Oh yeah.
Shannon Sharpe
Absolutely not.
Chad Ochocinco
Cuz that, that, that wind coming off Lake Michigan ain't nothing to play with. Now that's that bone. That's that bone chilling cold.
Shannon Sharpe
Hey one thing about it, when it is cold like that, you might not be able to run the ball. It's cold and windy. You might, might not be able to throw the ball like you want to.
Chad Ochocinco
Yeah but give, give Chicago credit. They've look and I said this when they got to. I, I remember having this conversation. They like oh I wouldn't take a quarterback. I got Justin Fields. I said they passed on a quarterback. You think they go about to pass on the number one overall quarterback back to back years because they had, remember they traded that Ocho to Carolina so Carolina could select Bryce Young.
Wilmer Valderrama
Yeah.
Chad Ochocinco
I say you actually think they're going to pass back to back years on the number one overall quarterback. You do realize the reason why they're in this position? This quarterback that he got, they moving on. Oh you think? I don't think. I know. He's good. He's really, really good. And they've done a great job. They've done a great job. Oho. Getting him talent. You look at D.J. moore. They extend D.J. moore. They get Roma Dunes. They got two tight ends with Cole commit and Loveland. They get Burton the third in the draft. They hey, they get Swift. I, I like, I like what they've done.
Shannon Sharpe
We gotta offensive line.
Chad Ochocinco
They rebuild the offensive line Ocho. They, they, they, they got, they, they, they gonna be, they're gonna be good. They can be good for a minute. Now that's not an easy division because you got the packers in that division with a young quarterback. You got the. The Detroit with. With golf and Gibbs and Armin Rod and Jameson Williams and they got an outstanding defense in Detroit.
Shannon Sharpe
Yeah.
Chad Ochocinco
I don't know.
Shannon Sharpe
Don't. Don't forget them weapons down there in Chicago. Now we got to say.
Wilmer Valderrama
I said.
Chad Ochocinco
I say they gonna be good for a minute. I was talking about them. Yeah.
Shannon Sharpe
Okay.
Chad Ochocinco
Okay.
Shannon Sharpe
Okay. We got a dunesday. You know we Luther. Luther Burden.
Chad Ochocinco
Yes.
Shannon Sharpe
Come on now. Yeah, we. We them boy gonna. It makes you up. Never mind. I ain't gonna say it. I ain't gonna say it no more.
Chad Ochocinco
But I don't know Minnesota. Hey, I know it's early what or so but hey.
Shannon Sharpe
Early what? Ain't no way in hell you supposed to let Sam Donald like that goddamn door. Now stop playing.
Chad Ochocinco
Well he gone now.
Wilmer Valderrama
So.
Chad Ochocinco
Ain't no. Ain't no sense in ain't no sense in closing Ain't no sense in closing the door now, cuz the cow's already out the barn.
Commercial Announcer
Did you.
Shannon Sharpe
Were you able to watch that game today?
Chad Ochocinco
I would did watch it, man.
Shannon Sharpe
Please, if you could. If you could turn back the hands of time. I guarantee they don't let.
Chad Ochocinco
I'm sure. Absolutely they would. Absolutely. Yeah. 1,000 as a matter of fact. Justin Jefferson go pick his ass up from the airport. Yeah, you're absolutely right. Absolutely.
Shannon Sharpe
I know my dog Jeddah got to be frustrated. Why? Oh, I know. I know.
Chad Ochocinco
He frustrated from go to putting up those kind of numbers.
Shannon Sharpe
Yeah.
Chad Ochocinco
I mean think about what he Ocho. He was on a historic. I mean he was talking about the best five years, six year totals in NFL history. That's the kind of place he was on.
Shannon Sharpe
Yeah.
Chad Ochocinco
And now it's come to a screeching halt because his quarterback play is inadequate.
Shannon Sharpe
God.
Chad Ochocinco
It is what it is. I mean we. We. We're not ocho. We're not breaking ocho. We're not interrupting normally scheduled programming to break news.
Shannon Sharpe
Right.
Chad Ochocinco
If you watch the vacuums play their quarterback, he leaves a lot to be desired. As I said, I know this is his first year starting, although he's a second year player. I'm willing to give him time. I'm even. I'm willing to give him some Runway. But I'm saying what my eyes are telling me right now is that he le. He leaves a lot to be desired. Let's see if he can change my perception of how good I think he can be. Chat. I'll leave that up to y'. All. Maybe y' all think he's you Know, hey, listen, it.
Shannon Sharpe
It's not up there. It's not up to us. He got to make them believers over there in that organization. Yeah, he got to make his receivers believers too, because obviously, based on what I saw today, the small sample size of the game I was able to catch. Boy, that ain't it, right. No, that didn't get it done.
Chad Ochocinco
Not even. Not even close to being it.
Shannon Sharpe
And the funny thing when I think about it is you still have the same weapons that goddamn Sam Donald had last year. So it really shouldn't be. It shouldn't be that goddamn difficult, even though playing the quarterback position is difficult. But for Sam Donald to make it look like he did last year and then go to Seattle and continue making it look like that, I'm thinking, well, hell, shoot, if he's what he's supposed to be as high as he got drafted, he should be able to get. Get it done the exact same way.
Chad Ochocinco
I was. I was concerned. Ocho, let me tell you why I was concerned about him is because they really didn't throw the football at Michigan. No, they were running team.
Shannon Sharpe
Yeah, they run. Run it right down your mouth.
Chad Ochocinco
So. O. Whoa, hold on. Whoa, whoa. Hold up, hold on. Run that back. I. I need you to rephrase that and then plus pray.
Shannon Sharpe
Oh, my bad, my bad.
Chad Ochocinco
Yeah, yeah, I need. Come on. No, no, no, no. Just. Just rephrase it. Play.
Shannon Sharpe
Okay. Run the ball.
Rob Gronkowski
Damn.
Shannon Sharpe
Let me see how you say they run the ball against. No, I'm trying to. I say it the right way.
Wilmer Valderrama
Huh?
Chad Ochocinco
I don't know. But you. I just need you to rephrase the way what you did. Just rephrase that.
Shannon Sharpe
They run. They gonna run the ball downhill.
Chad Ochocinco
Okay. Yeah.
Shannon Sharpe
Okay.
Chad Ochocinco
Yeah.
Shannon Sharpe
There you go. My bad.
Chad Ochocinco
Emmanuel Wilson ran for 107 yards and two touchdowns as the pike packers beat Minnesota by the score of 23 6. Wilson provided all the office Green Bay needed on a day the packers forced three turnovers, produced five sacks including two from each from Michael Parson and Devonte Wyatt. The Vikings total four net yards and three turnovers in the second half. The Vikings hadn't finished the half with with as few as 4 yard total yards offense since 1991 or as far back as Sports radar. Sports Sportster Radar. Sport radar. Sport Radar research goes. Damn. Oo. We were kind of having this conversation just a minute ago. Yeah, I'm willing to give him. Look, he missed last year with an injury. Yes. So he didn't really get a whole lot of reps this year. He missed what Five games with an injury, so that kind of started his growth. I'm willing to give him some time, but, boy, next year, this time, Ocho.
Rob Gronkowski
Yes.
Chad Ochocinco
He'll have to show me a lot to convince me.
Shannon Sharpe
Yeah, absolutely. I mean, listen, the. The clock is ticking. Obviously, the clock is ticking. You have to prove yourself, because if you don't prove yourself next year around this time, then they just go, they're gonna move on. You know how. You know how this business is. You know, you understand how this game is. They want instant gratification right away. They not. They not waiting around, waiting to develop, waiting to get better. You have to show signs. You have to show signs of improvement fast, quick, and in a hurry. If you don't, you got to be able to show some type of potential. And in order to do that, you got to be healthy. You got to be on the field.
Chad Ochocinco
Yeah, you think about ocho. He was 12 or 19 for 87 yards, two picks, and then they had another 93 yards on the ground. So basically they had 180 yards of total offense, maybe that. Maybe didn't have that many. When you take the sack yardage into account, they might have had 140 yards. My bad. 145.
Shannon Sharpe
That's crazy, man.
Chad Ochocinco
You know, I don't know if you're gonna win a whole lot of game unless you sack their quarterback 10 times, unless you take the ball away from them another five times. It's hard. Or.
Home Depot Announcer
Or.
Chad Ochocinco
Or you get pick sixes, scooping scores or return touchdowns. Ocho, in the special teams game, you not winning no game with 145 yards of total offense unless you get a punt return, a kick return, you block a punt, something unforeseen.
Shannon Sharpe
Right.
Chad Ochocinco
But 145, Damn, that's embarrassing. I mean, you got Addison, you got Jenna, and you got Naylor.
Shannon Sharpe
Oh, and you got stealing. You got Thielen in there, too.
Chad Ochocinco
No. Yeah, Thielen. And you got Hawkinson, and you got Aaron Jones, who could not. There is no excuse. Hey, that's no excuse.
Shannon Sharpe
That's. That's crazy. Boy, I know. Jet is hot.
Chad Ochocinco
This is what Justin Jefferson said. It gets frustrating when they keep saying the same fixes are coming each week, but nothing is different the following week. It's frustrating. It's frustrating to lose. It's frustrating to be up here saying the same thing every single week, expecting things to change the following week, and we're still in the same spot, and we just got to figure it out.
Shannon Sharpe
Yeah, I mean, he said he's saying all the right things. He's saying all the right things to us in front of the camera, but behind closed doors to those that he know, those that he trusts. That conversation is completely different.
Chad Ochocinco
Throw my whole meal in the trash.
Shannon Sharpe
Completely different. Oh, that's. Hey, can you imagine, though? I'm. I'm just thinking about it, you know, how bad you have to be to have Justin Jefferson, Addison, Thielen Hawkinson. You got Aaron Jones back there running the ball to take some of the pressure off of you. Even if you are one dimensional, you can be able to throw the ball with them. Mother. Excuse me. With those weapons. Come on now. The same. The same Sam Donald that's with the New York jets that they didn't want anymore. The same Sam Donald that with the Carolina Panthers that he didn't want because he would. But he went to Minnesota and looked like a goddamn man. Come on now, stop playing. If you really are who you say you are based on your draft status, based on where you were picked in the draft, supposed to be the franchise quarterback, eh? But it's looking like a hit. It's looking like a heavy miss, and I say that with all due respect.
Chad Ochocinco
Falcons got on the winning track. Ocho by the score of 2410 over the New Orleans Saints. Kurt first cousins 16 to 23, 199, two touchdowns, one pick. He was sacked three times. Bijan Robinson had 14 carries for 70 yards. Algeria had 12 for 44, 29 carries, a buck 21. Mooney has three catches, had a big touchdown. Over the top 49 yards, one touchdown. Ocho, I watched this game.
Shannon Sharpe
See, this is one game I ain't get to see. There was only so many TVs out there.
Chad Ochocinco
Yeah, Chat, if you're a Falcons fan, you know what I'm about to say is true.
Shannon Sharpe
What happened? What happened?
Chad Ochocinco
Kyle Pierce senior dropping too many passes. Ocho, he just. He just. I don't know what it is. I don't know what it is. I mean, he just dropped. I'm talking about routine stuff. I'm not talking about no acrobatic catches where you got to go up. I'm talking about stuff hitting him dead in his hands. I'm talking about over the shoulder stuff. He's. And he's too talented. He's as talent of a tight end, receiving tight end that I've seen come out the draft. He's supposed to be Brock Bowers. He's supposed to be McBride. That's what he's supposed to be.
Shannon Sharpe
Yeah, He's dropping them. Clean up.
Chad Ochocinco
Clean Clean.
Shannon Sharpe
Hold on. You talking about clean like contested catches?
Chad Ochocinco
No, he dropping routine stuff, hitting him in the chest. Ain't nobody right now. No, he just dropping.
Shannon Sharpe
Oh, damn.
Chad Ochocinco
And I just thought. I just knew this was gonna be the year that, you know, he shows everybody why he was a top five pick. He went in front of Chase.
Shannon Sharpe
Yeah. He was number four. Huh?
Chad Ochocinco
It's just. It's. I just. I don't know what it is. I don't know what it is. I. I just. I. I did. I did not envision, especially come off the season that he had as a rookie where he went over a thousand yards.
Shannon Sharpe
Yep.
Chad Ochocinco
I just knew, like, okay, the sky's the limit. This is gonna be. And it just. It just hadn't. It just hadn't clicked. Just hadn't clicked. Jackson, Smith and Jigba had another awesome day. Ocho, eight catches, a buck 67 against the Titans. He has 13, 13 receiving yards. He broke DK's record that he set in 2020. DK did that in 16 games. He's broken the record in 11 games. Smith and Jigba is on first, is on pace to become the first player with 2, 000 receiving yards in a single season.
Shannon Sharpe
If there's a player that should get it, if there's a player that the NFL and the team and the powers that be that control everything, he's one of the ones you want to do it. He's one of the players you want to allow to be able to break that record. JSN is having one hell of a season. He's having one hell of a season. And the fact that he's continuing exactly what he started at Ohio State. We saw him in the Rose bowl go for what, 200, 280, almost.
Chad Ochocinco
No, he went for three, like 330.
Shannon Sharpe
Yeah, he did. He went for three.
Wilmer Valderrama
Something.
Shannon Sharpe
And then coming to the NFL, most of the time, it's a hit or miss when it comes to receivers, but for him to. To show that not only did I do in college, but hold on, hold my beer. I'm gonna give it to you in the NFL, too. Every week. Not just one week. And then you go missing for two or three weeks. But I'm talking about back to back to back. And this is a testament to not only the quarterback, but the play calling that continuously puts him in position to be able to make these plays and create mismatches so he can do exactly what he's doing.
Chad Ochocinco
The Tennessee, yeah, the Seattle win, they moved to 8 and 3 thanks to a 3024 victory over the Tennessee Titans. Sam Donald was 16 to 26, 244, 2 touchdown. Kenneth Walker had 11 carries for 71 yards. They had 20 rushes, 114 yards, 1 touchdown. Sharpen up. But it was Jackson, Smith and Jigba. Eight catches, a buck 67, two touchdowns. They had 16 or 16 completions for 244 yards. Man, he. He cooking, folks. I mean, he's unbelievable. I mean, he is. Wow. He's so smooth, Man. I've seen silk that wasn't that smooth, Ocho. That joker, man. Good God almighty.
Shannon Sharpe
Yeah, he cut. He cutting up now. Yeah, man, he cutting up. And you know, you know, the funny thing about it is it don't matter who it is. You know, you think, man, okay, maybe playing against bad defenses, maybe playing against bad.
Chad Ochocinco
It don't matter.
Shannon Sharpe
Everybody getting that work.
Chad Ochocinco
Everybody getting that. Everybody so don't know about. Oh, man, I locked. Not this year. There might be a time down the road that you say I locked him up, but not this year. I want to see him get 2, 000.
Shannon Sharpe
Yeah. Once you get into a rhythm like this, ain't no stopping. And the play calling is going to always continue to be in your favor just so you can get that record.
Chad Ochocinco
Ask somebody, is he gonna be the MVP if he get 2, 000 yards? No, because somebody had to throw him the ball to get him 2,000 yards.
Shannon Sharpe
Yeah, that is true.
Chad Ochocinco
So Matthew Stafford. Right now, I think Matthew Stafford has a stranglehold. Now. I will say this. If Miles Garrett was on a winning team doing what he's doing, he would get serious, serious, serious consideration.
Shannon Sharpe
Yeah. Hands down. Hands down, Absolutely.
Chad Ochocinco
Cause I'm talking about. I mean, he might. He might be. Like I said, I think he's gonna be the first defensive player to win Defensive Player of the year that's on a losing squad since Cortez Kennedy did it.
Shannon Sharpe
Oh, but can you see me?
Chad Ochocinco
Yeah, I see you.
Shannon Sharpe
Now hit the wrong one.
Chad Ochocinco
I like you.
Shannon Sharpe
Hold on. I hit the wrong button on my computer, man. Oh, there you go. Damn.
Chad Ochocinco
But Smith and Jigba is having an unbelievable season, and it's. It's a pleasure to watch him, watch him go to work. And it doesn't matter. They see you too, Ocho.
Shannon Sharpe
Okay.
Chad Ochocinco
The Jags beat the Cardinals in overtime. We had a couple of overtime games today. I thought we might get another one with the Cowboys and the Eagles. But, hey, the Cowboys walk it off thanks to Brandon Aubrey's a 42 yard field goal. But we did get two overtime games. We got Detroit and the Giants. And we got this one right here, the Jags and the Cardinals. As Trevor Lawrence was 18 of 30, 256, three touchdowns, three picks and a fumble. So they got four turnovers.
Shannon Sharpe
Damn.
Chad Ochocinco
The. The Cardinals got four turnovers and still.
Shannon Sharpe
And still.
Chad Ochocinco
And still lost.
Shannon Sharpe
Ajacoby was dealing, though, right?
Chad Ochocinco
Oh, yeah. 33 or 49. 317. One touchdown. Michael Ocho.
Shannon Sharpe
Yeah.
Chad Ochocinco
Again, you see what he did? Now he get a big play. He spin the ball, hit his foot, rolled to the end zone. Now he got to go get it. Now he got to come back and try to find the official. You see, bro? Come on, man. Y' all come on now. Come on, bro. There's a time and a place to celebrate. You down? Why are you spinning the ball? Do you not understand situational football in that situation? Yeah, spinning the football. This is not the first quarter. This is not the second quarter, bro. This is over. This is overtime.
Shannon Sharpe
No, they don't. They excited.
Chad Ochocinco
Oh, my gosh.
Shannon Sharpe
He's excited to make them plays, huh? But you got. You got to know. You got, you got to be. You got. You gotta. You got to be aware of your situations.
Chad Ochocinco
The time you remember Pittsburgh, the guy Claiborne. What. What was the name? Receiver from Notre Dame. He caught the ball in Minnesota. Chase Claypool. It started celebrating. Ocho.
Shannon Sharpe
Timer going down, huh?
Chad Ochocinco
Yes, but I'm looking. I'm like. I'm. I'm just. Ocho. I'm just looking at him. I'm looking at him like this. Here. Come here. You come here. See, back in the old. When we played. Ocho, you do some cool like that. Come here, son. Come here.
Shannon Sharpe
Yeah.
Chad Ochocinco
Get your ass over here. Hell, no. Now, if he hasn't already, he'll apologize.
Shannon Sharpe
Yeah.
Chad Ochocinco
He apologize like, look, I just can't do that. Valuable time is off the clock. Ultra. You got the ball. Just get the ball. Go back. You saved 10 seconds.
Shannon Sharpe
Seconds. Yeah. Hand. Hand him. Hand it to the rest.
Chad Ochocinco
Maybe more.
Shannon Sharpe
You hand it to the ref. It get. But you get. Leaving more time on the clock.
Chad Ochocinco
But the Jags win the score in overtime, 27 to 20. Even though Arizona takes the ball away four times, they still lose the game. Now, we're gonna get you out of here on this. It's time for our final segment of the evening. It's time for Q and A.
Shannon Sharpe
Damn. I was feeling. I was feeling. I was feeling good. Good at night, bro.
Chad Ochocinco
Dr. Frankie L. Bellamy. How's everybody doing tonight? It sure is a bright outside. It must be all them stars in the sky. How about them cowboys? Love y'. All. Yeah, Doc, you finally get a chance to celebrate. You get a chance to celebrate. We take a bow. LPR98oo. During your time in Cincinnati, you were very popular at comedy spots on Tuesday. Is it true you once ruffled a new car away?
Shannon Sharpe
Oh, yeah, yeah, I did. I did. And I. I raffled off a new Lexus, I think.
Chad Ochocinco
Oh, raffled?
Shannon Sharpe
Yeah, raffled off a new Lexus around Christmas time. But I think.
Chad Ochocinco
Who car was it, huh?
Shannon Sharpe
But I gave it to the girl I was dating at the time, you know, and then the people, the people got. The people got mad, they got upset. They. They sued. They sued me for that, too. I'd never forget that.
Chad Ochocinco
After y' all broke up, did you take the car back or you let her keep it.
Shannon Sharpe
Now? I let her keep it.
Chad Ochocinco
Ah, damn. I don't think that's real financial responsibility there, though.
Shannon Sharpe
Well, yeah, it is, because I, I got that money back. No, I had, I had a deal. I had a deal with the dealership.
Chad Ochocinco
Oh, you had a deal with the dealership?
Shannon Sharpe
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Chad Ochocinco
So you. Ocho, you do realize, like, when you have a rock, a raffle, or a lottery, friends, family cannot win.
Shannon Sharpe
Oh, my bad. I ain't know that.
Chad Ochocinco
Oh, Lord have mercy.
Shannon Sharpe
I know that. But, you know, you try to do something like, you try to do something nice for, you know, for the people, man, you know, but it's all good.
Chad Ochocinco
Dragon Man 56 Shador didn't need to start the season. Cause he only got. He only got perfect timing. Yep. Let's hope he can keep it going. He got a big. Oh, who did play next week? Niners. You got the Niners at home? Me, CD Lamb sucks drop after drop, then points the finger at himself. Yeah. Oo there so many times you gonna give us that church?
Shannon Sharpe
Oh, that. This. This the church.
Chad Ochocinco
Hey, hey. Yeah. Like you try this. Cute. Like you tipping it, bro. Just cause you hold that fake up. Try to excuse yourself, bro. We know it's you.
Shannon Sharpe
You right. You right.
Chad Ochocinco
Hey, let's see. Better than this.
Shannon Sharpe
Yeah, he gonna get it. He gonna get it. Right on. You know, when you wear that double eight, man, that, that's special, man. That's. That, that's special.
Chad Ochocinco
Brandon Martinez start with the Cowboys and Eagles game. Hey, Eagles fans, where y' all five star quarterback. Y' all all were talking all that smack all week. 21 point lead to start and got smoke. How about them Cowboys? Well, I, I, I, I think A.J. brown got everybody's Undivided attention. Saw your car, so we need nightcap. Swear. Swear jar for O.O. go, pack, go.
Shannon Sharpe
Wait, a what?
Chad Ochocinco
A swear jar? Curse jar.
Shannon Sharpe
Oh, my bad, my bad. Only now I encourage. I, I, I, I, I caught myself every time tonight. I ain't even letting on out.
Chad Ochocinco
No, you didn't. True and infamous. I'm sorry, but Kevin Petula needs to go. Eagle should hire Brian Daybar as OC because he was OC At Alabama. Who was the quarterback? Jalen Hurts. Carlton Falconer. Haters don't know what to do with themselves. Sam Le Grand, 89. That energy for Shador was not the same. Nah, he. He was quite reserved. I got no chill. Ocho. Can you invite CD to your wide receiver camp next year? Can't hold his liquor or touchdown catch, ma'.
Wilmer Valderrama
Am.
Shannon Sharpe
Oh, yeah.
Chad Ochocinco
Killer male is still clear. Brown's coaches doesn't want Sanders stats to resemble his skill. Both times in the red zone, he took the ball out of Shadora's hand. I mean, yeah, I mean, they running Wildcat. Bringing the quarterback. We ain't. We ain't gonna get into it. Yeah, but we see. We see it.
Shannon Sharpe
I know exactly what they're doing.
Chad Ochocinco
I am. Because scrappy win for my Patriots, but a win is a win. Yeah, absolutely. This time of year, you take them however you can get them. Biggie Dan. Watching y' all helps us go help. Helping go through hard times right now. Much love, Flock Nation. See the Bengals next year, Ocho. Y' all hot garbage.
Shannon Sharpe
Damn.
Chad Ochocinco
And is Almighty James. No matter how good he plays, they don't want him starting up. Ain't got no choice. Be so good, they can't take you out. Shakur. 85.
Wilmer Valderrama
5.
Chad Ochocinco
Patula Score 21 points in the first half, then get conservative and lose the damn game. Give it to AJ Then he don't get it again until later. He a bum. He gotta go. We ain't winning. Ish with him calling the BS. Raymond Felton. Y' all said trade would do nothing for them. For them boys.
Shannon Sharpe
You say, what trade?
Chad Ochocinco
I guess they say Quinny Williams and. And Logan Wilson, that was who they got. I mean, Quinn made the first drop of the night, and that was. That was pretty much it. But you know what, Raymond? We shall see.
Shannon Sharpe
Yes, sir.
Chad Ochocinco
What's the Cowboys record now? Five and four and five.
Shannon Sharpe
Right.
Chad Ochocinco
Five. Five and one. Okay.
Shannon Sharpe
Oh, they. They fight. They at 500.
Chad Ochocinco
Yep.
Wilmer Valderrama
Okay.
Shannon Sharpe
Oh, that's right. That's after the nice game. Yeah.
Chad Ochocinco
Reggie Johnson hurts. Took Carson's spot when he got hurt. He did. But it was Jalen playing better than Carson when Carson got hurt. Yes, he did. He was playing better at the time that when Carson was helping to come back in. He was playing better than Wentz when Wentz got hurt. So therefore, it's his job. Seems like they made the right decision. JJ PR20 man, call it what it is. The only reason they don't want him to succeed because they not trying to see a confident black man like Shador to win. Go, Shador. Can't hold. Can't hold. Progress must progress. Can't hold him back. Young Ray irl talk about how y' all was wrong about the Cowboys trade. Gold Cowboys. Cowboys look good. They won. What? They won two games since the trade. Yeah, they won two in a row. Two. And, oh, you get back to now they're above.500. Now the season starts East Coast Cab. Shador should have been over DG. Throw the whole coaching staff away. Fire Stefanski, Andrew Barry five them ninjas at the hot dog stand. So, m Sports, Uncle Nocho. After all the talk about football players spinning on each other, what do you think? The best CSU players spitting on players from Boise State. I saw that. I missed that one, man. Two players got suspended for the last game. Hey. And, oh, boy, he walking by Ocho.
Wilmer Valderrama
He.
Chad Ochocinco
Boy, I slapped fire from him.
Shannon Sharpe
Damn.
Chad Ochocinco
I bet you. I bet you he won't ever do that again.
Shannon Sharpe
I don't understand.
Chad Ochocinco
Moving forward, that Jo be talking with a handkerchief over his mouth, scaring somebody. He gonna get excited, livers. Boy, I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't. It's kind of like an epidemic because you see like. Like you see it somewhere. And then, hey, you see it again, like, oh, there you go. Yeah, I know. Ain't nobody gonna do that. Cause Jalen Carter started it. And then we see Chase do it. And now we see. Man, look here. Somebody just like. Like Mike Thomas say, do what comes natural.
Shannon Sharpe
Natural.
Chad Ochocinco
Yeah, whatever comes. Like I said, if somebody. If somebody spits on you, whatever happens to them after that, it is what it is.
Shannon Sharpe
I'm okay with it. I'm. Yep.
Chad Ochocinco
Young red girl. Oo always try to trade out players. Where is my super suit looking? Dude.
Shannon Sharpe
I'm not trying to trade nobody. I just want to make sure players get their true value. You just want to be selfish and keep them there. Just to say you got him.
Chad Ochocinco
Yeah. Brandon Martinez. Y' all crazy thinking Jerry gonna let GP Walk out the that stadium. He's a cowboy and he's playing with his heart for this team. Let's effing go.
Shannon Sharpe
Hey, you see. You see how Jerry got these fans wrapped around his finger?
Chad Ochocinco
Of course.
Shannon Sharpe
Like they.
Chad Ochocinco
Hey, they.
Shannon Sharpe
They forget about that. All the crazy stuff. All the. All the crazy stuff he done done and just be so. Just. Just locked in like he. I'm confused.
Chad Ochocinco
Don't be. David Madana Medrana Uncle Nocho, Huge fan. Why is it that Jackson dark swag is praised but Shador swag is looked down upon? I think you know the answer to that. The same reason some quarterbacks is passion and the other quarter and other players, that's. It's a malcontent. It's diva.
Shannon Sharpe
Yeah.
Chad Ochocinco
So Mr. Jet Life, if you don't like. If you don't like topics, how long or short they talk about them is close the app or do something productive. You don't run the show. Shannon does. Take your insufferable asses on. Yeah, tell him Mr. Jet Life. Cause all y' all do is complain. Anyway. 27 says CD couldn't hold on to his liquor tonight. Seemed like he couldn't hold on to the football either. That underscore spiral Ellie CD had me cussing tonight. GP got that dog in him and does TCock underscore 21. Chad, call him please and talk to him. He had what a G and co jeans on before the game. Who is that?
Shannon Sharpe
Who are you talking about?
Chad Ochocinco
I have no idea. Hey, uncle no show. Did you see GM Andrew Barry hugs your door after the game? That told me that he. He is in for Shador as the guy. Well, we'll see next week if he's in the game.
Shannon Sharpe
All right.
Chad Ochocinco
HBO OG Sup, Uncle Nocho. Did y' all catch what neighbor said on social media he posted, then deleted? We did. We talked about it. Davin's Daily TV at Ocho. What are you looking forward to talking about tomorrow on the Adams K Adams show? My two favorite shows. Thanks.
Shannon Sharpe
Everything. Football. Talk about my Bengals. I'm hurt.
Chad Ochocinco
You should be used to it.
Wilmer Valderrama
Damn.
Chad Ochocinco
Jared Vasquez, Okonocho. Can I get a birthday shout out for my daughter Adriana and my son King? My daughter is a Cowboys fan like her dad. My son is a Vikings fan. We got one up on him today. Yes, absolutely. Adriana King. Happy birthday. Enjoy your day. You had something fun? Got cake, went to the park, did no. Your dad probably had you watching the bike the Cowboys game, which was. That was a celebration in and of itself. So happy birthday to you guys. Kemper Norwood Jr. Ocho, my question who are you picking in the soccer game next weekend? Chelsea or Arsenal?
Shannon Sharpe
Oh, my God. That's gonna be a good one. That's going to be a good one. If anything, right now, being that Arsenal's at the top of the League, at top of the table, I'd probably go with Arsenal. Chelsea would have to pull everything out. They had to pull that one off. Did you see Eze today with the hat trick?
Chad Ochocinco
No.
Shannon Sharpe
Stop playing. No, I was talking to the person.
Chad Ochocinco
Oh, okay.
Shannon Sharpe
Yeah, yeah. Hey, matter of fact, I should go to that game. Hey, I'm trying to. How long is that flight to London? Six hours.
Chad Ochocinco
It's probably about six hours from New York. You six. You three out. You four hours from New York. So ten hours.
Shannon Sharpe
I should. I should go to.
Commercial Announcer
I.
Shannon Sharpe
You know what? That'd be a nice little trip, man, to catch that. That game on Sunday, man, And come.
Chad Ochocinco
H underscore hunt 23, Uncle Nocho. When analysts say a team wasn't ready to play, why does that fall on the head coach? These are pros. Shouldn't they be ready to jump on Y' all never needed a coach to tell you to ball. True. Well, that's why you have to have leaders in the locker room to make sure you guys ready to play. Understand the task at hand. All can coach can do is give you the instructions. After that, everything on you. It's all on you. KT93 who win between Texas. Oh, five. Texas and 0. 5, Auburn and 10. Oh, that'll be a good one. I ain't going against Cam.
Shannon Sharpe
Wait. Hey, that's Vince Young. Texas, huh?
Chad Ochocinco
Yep. Ain't going against Cam.
Shannon Sharpe
That's a good one.
Chad Ochocinco
A great one. Joshua Uganda choker. Y' all wish my wife Crystal a happy birthday. This is our 20th together. And I wouldn't want to share this day with anyone else. Absolutely. Crystal, Joshua wants to wish you a Happy Birthday and 20 birthdays together. He said he wouldn't want to share this day with anybody else other than you.
Shannon Sharpe
Oh, that's dope.
Chad Ochocinco
That's amazing.
Shannon Sharpe
20 years. What?
Chad Ochocinco
20 years. 20 years and we got. We gotta catch a dab Smith. Jackson Smith. And Jigba gets 2000 yard. He's the MVP. Nobody has ever done that before. So let me ask you this. If he gets 2,000 yards, how many yards you think what you call him gonna have? Sam Darnold. And what we're gonna do with Matthew Stafford. So Matthew Stafford has 45 touchdowns and two interceptions. So we just gonna overlook that, huh? Yeah, I think he'll be. I Think he'll get offensive player of the year? I mean, but we got some. We got some major contenders for offensive Player of the year. You look at what Jamel doing, You look at what Jonathan Taylor's doing? Yeah, you look at what JSN is doing? Oh, you gonna have some guys. Oh, oh, you have some guys in the running for this thing, Ocho?
Shannon Sharpe
Yeah, we have some guys. But. But the guys are in the running. Most of them already avoided. They're already done, or what they're doing has already been done. What JSN is going to do. That 2000 had never been done before. Therefore, I put him a little bit higher on the list because whatever Mass staff or whatever numbers Matt Stafford put up, they've been put up before.
Chad Ochocinco
True, but I think it's just so hard, Ocho, because they say he plays a dependent position. They don't get a. I mean, look at the season when Moss had.
Shannon Sharpe
Oh, the 23. The 23.
Chad Ochocinco
Yes.
Shannon Sharpe
Yeah, you. You right, you're right. Listen, he played the dependent position. Right. But the numbers that the quarterback is going to put up, they're going to be numbers that someone else has already put up before.
Chad Ochocinco
Aac3214. Uncle Nocho, my dirt. My dad turns the big six zero today. Celebrated in Vegas this weekend. But those damn Raiders know how to ruin Pop's birthday. Happy birthday, Pops. Yeah, they do. I sure hope you had to get him tickets to go to the game.
Shannon Sharpe
Happy birthday, Pops.
Chad Ochocinco
Rb Caps, bus. Ditto. Do you think Stafford should have been pulled out of the game earlier when the score was 31 to 7?
Shannon Sharpe
Nah, nah. Run that score up, man. Stat Pad.
Chad Ochocinco
DS Shepherd, 35. The Browns about to let Sanders walk out the door like Baker Miles is the mvp. This is all. This is a all time season. Tyler Booker handled Carter tonight. Y' all trash talked about Jerry's GM skill set. Mofo got Lambo with a third pick. Somebody. Oh, We gonna see, bro. We gonna see. Look, everything. Look. Jerry got off Michael. Michael's playing well in Green Bay. Kenny Clark's doing a great job stopping the run. They get Quinny. They pair him and Quinny. Diggy Zoo is playing really well. They're attacking a quarterback. Fowler's playing well. Got a big hands to the face call against the right tackle in the game call. Got a big play callback. Jadavian Clowney is playing well. Williams playing well. The guys are playing well. Look, I think the biggest acquisition was getting George Pickens for a third round picking this year in the 26 draft. George Pickens has been better than they'd hoped. Better.
Shannon Sharpe
Way better.
Chad Ochocinco

Host: Shannon Sharpe (with Chad Ochocinco, Wilmer Valderrama, Malcolm Gladwell)
Theme: Unfiltered NFL Week 12 Reactions – Mahomes’ “Superman” Game, Flacco’s Turnovers, Locker Room Drama, Breakout Performances, and Coach Critiques
In this episode of Nightcap Hour 2, Shannon Sharpe and Chad Ochocinco break down the highlights, controversies, and individual performances from NFL Week 12, focusing on Patrick Mahomes “trying to be Superman” in the Chiefs’ win over the Colts, Joe Flacco’s propensity for turnovers, Malik Nabers’ public criticism of the Giants coaching staff, questions surrounding JJ McCarthy’s future, and the steady rise of Jackson Smith-Njigba (JSN). The conversation is lively, fast-paced, and full of player insights, memorable lines, and behind-the-scenes perspectives from two NFL legends.
“Chris Jones and the rest of the defense dominated the Colts offense... allowed the Chiefs to exit Arrowhead with a much needed 23:20 comeback victory.” – Chad Ochocinco [03:41]
"Coach Anarumo is a great defensive coordinator... Not stuck in his ways, adjusts his scheme." – Patrick Mahomes (quoted) [03:54]
"They had a 17-play drive, settled for three. A 14-play drive, settled for three. You kick field goals, you get your ass kicked." – Chad Ochocinco [06:56]
"He almost lost the game because he was trying to do too much—trying to be Superman." – Shannon Sharpe [07:53]
"You don't normally see that many plays in an NFL game... sixty, seventy is the norm." – Shannon & Ocho [09:57–10:15]
"Joe Flacco... gonna start out hot... but he'll turn over machine." – Shannon Sharpe [13:44]
“What happens when you throw late to the flat? Oh, it’s going the other way every time.” – Ochocinco [18:39–18:43]
"Sometimes I think they be making us lose on purpose... football common sense." – Cited by Ochocinco [33:31]
"We're starting to see athletes publicly question their own team... Before, maybe you’d say, 'Damn, I don’t know what that call was...' Now, players like Malik just put it out there." – Ochocinco [35:06] “I’m with Malik... What are you doing?” – Shannon Sharpe [41:36]
“I can’t call it but I’m out there... we just need to execute a lot better. Has nothing to do with no injury.” – Lamar (quoted) [27:21]
“Something weird about this season... teams we're used to seeing dominant, especially offensively. Chiefs, Ravens—it looks weird.” – Sharpe [28:22]
"They ran the ball 34 times, less than 100 yards. Usually, that’s 200+ for Baltimore." – Ochocinco [28:19]
“Might be the closest thing we have in today's game to Chris Johnson. Outrunning the goddamn angle... might be up there with Tyreek.” – Sharpe & Ocho [37:05–37:44]
“JSN is having one hell of a season... might be the first with 2,000 yards receiving in a season.” – Sharpe [58:19]
“If he gets 2,000 yards, is he MVP?... No—because somebody has to throw him the ball.” – Ochocinco [60:41–60:47]
“Matthew Stafford has a stranglehold on MVP.” – Ochocinco [60:50]
“He leaves a lot to be desired... even willing to give him runway, but my eyes tell me otherwise.” – Sharpe [48:47]
“The Jets need a quarterback. Doesn’t matter the coach.” – Ochocinco [31:12]
(Discussed Murray, Winston, Wilson, Baker as veteran options; low confidence in rookie fixes)
“They really didn’t throw the football at Michigan. They were a running team.” – Ocho [50:02]
“It gets frustrating when they keep saying the same fixes are coming each week, but nothing is different.” – Sharpe reading Jefferson [54:04]
“Players want to get their true value... This business is about instant gratification.” – Sharpe [73:28–73:37 and 51:59]
“Coach can give you the instructions, after that, it’s all on you. That’s why you need leaders.” – Ochocinco [77:16]
“He almost lost the game because he was trying to do too much. Trying to be Superman, trying to carry the load himself.” – Shannon Sharpe [07:53]
“Remember all the tricks they used to do?... That’s not working anymore, because the film is out there.” – Sharpe [07:09]
“You kick field goals, you get your ass kicked.” – Chad Ochocinco [06:56]
“Sometimes I think they be making us lose on purpose... football common sense.” – Nabers tweet (quoted by Ocho) [33:31]
“He’s having one hell of a season... back to back to back. Testament to the play calling.” – Sharpe [58:48]
“How you outrunning the angle? Angle 20 yards deep... not supposed to be able to do that unless you Tyreek fast.” – Sharpe & Ocho [37:32–37:44]
