KCP and L get filled up pretty quick on game days, so make sure you're there pretty promptly. Speaking of tailgates. Jason was out of the house. That's right. He was in Chicago for the first Monday night football game of the year, and he tried Chicago's Marlor.
Jason Kelce
Malort.
Travis Kelce
Malort, are you there? In there?
Jason Kelce
There is Malort. M A L O R T Malort. It's a liqueur specific to Chicago. Not gonna lie. Does not taste good. It's one of those things that's like, it's not good enough that anybody else is going to try and take this from Chicago. It's not bad enough that, like, people are like, oh, this I'm never gonna have. It's like, it's like right in that range of like. It's kind of like a test of, like, your love for the.
Travis Kelce
It's like rubble mints.
Jason Kelce
I don't even know that it's that good, to be honest with you. I think it's. The Chicago handshake is a shot of Malort and a can of old style beer. I think that's what they're called. Old style. Yeah.
Travis Kelce
Nice, dude. One of my favorite drinks ever at Uncle Woody's was woodchuck in 43.
Jason Kelce
You did? Love you some woodchuck and 43i.
Travis Kelce
That is like candy, man.
Jason Kelce
Yeah, it was legitimately nothing but sugar.
Travis Kelce
Insider beer. Yeah, I used to feel terrible the next day, but God damn, those things used to go down smooth, man.
Jason Kelce
It was pretty good.
Travis Kelce
Shout out to Uncle Woody's, which is not in Chicago. It just hearing that kind. That kind of tailgate drink, that's what it reminded me of. A little liquor and beer.
Jason Kelce
Well, it was awesome to go to the stadium. You know, ESPN kind of hit me up and, you know, what do you think would be cool to cover out there? And the first thing I said, I, you know, I have a special place in my heart for all these old stadiums that have been around for a long time.
Travis Kelce
And dude, pulling up to Soldier Field. Are you kidding me?
Jason Kelce
Yeah.
Travis Kelce
Like, I. I remember going to the game you guys had in the playoffs with him, and I was just walking around with the fam and. And everybody and electric game, playoff atmosphere. Like, I'm. I'm walking up to Soldier Field and you just see that stone on the side of the state.
Jason Kelce
It is just so.
Travis Kelce
There's so much history and so much culture there, and I just. I love it, man. And I know, I know they want a new stadium and they want to kind of revamp it and maybe even take it to another part of the. The city and all that, but for sure there's Just something so magical about that place, man. From an outsider at least.
Jason Kelce
So I talked to all the fans throughout the week and it was a. Everybody is very geared up for a new stadium. So for everyone that doesn't know, they renovated the stadium, I believe, right after 2000, like 2000, 2003 maybe.
Travis Kelce
Yeah.
Jason Kelce
So the entire inside is all new and they tried to retrofit it and keep the old exterior and dress it up. And I think everybody agrees that what is there right now currently isn't working. It's dated it. Like there's. It just doesn't have what you want. And a new stadium is in order. And right now the plan is to put a dome on a stadium in Arlington outside the city. I am always against moving stadiums outside the city. I don't like it. I like when the stadiums are inside the city, especially these old school cities like Chicago. Yeah, I would prefer vastly stay downtown. Fans are mixed on it. A lot of fans are excited about the move out to Arlington. It's going to be a dome, so they're going to be able to host all sorts of events there. The best idea I heard, which I think they've moved on from, but I would much prefer them going back to, is there's a huge parking lot right next door to the stadium where it's currently at. I. Why can't the city and the Bears just figure out a way to make the stadium right there? Like, I just. To me that's the better location. You build a stadium there and then you can. You can still have that stadium. The. You can still have Soldier Field right there as like a. An ode. Right. Even if you knock down the stadium inside of it, you can make it like a giant park in there. It could be pretty freaking cool.
Travis Kelce
That'd be pretty dope.
Jason Kelce
And the, you know, I just think it's awesome. All the, you know, there's medallions embedded in the walls of the stadium to honor all the different branches of the military.
Travis Kelce
It's so cool, man.
Jason Kelce
The Doughboy freaking bronze statue, when you get into it, like, it's just, you know, I. They don't make stadiums in honor of things like that anymore.
Travis Kelce
Yeah.
Jason Kelce
It's all just become so commercialized. And I, man, listen, more money for the league is more money for everybody. And I am all about that.
Travis Kelce
And especially around the Midwest or at least not the coastal cities, man. You just gotta. I don't know. I don't know. I don't want to say they're not thriving as much as the coastal cities, but They, I mean, finding unique ways to. To, you know, have a sponsor somewhere so that they can, you know, find some bread. I mean that's just what it is, I think.
Jason Kelce
But you guys do it right? It's not Jiha Field, it's Jihad at Arrowhead. Yeah, that's to me, the state. The name of the stadium should be something that honors the city. The, like the, the. The citizens history.
Travis Kelce
The history exactly like.
Jason Kelce
I think that that's a much better way to name a stadium personally. And listen, I played in Lincoln Financial Field. The link is great. If you are a part of building the stadium, it kind of doesn't feel as like Hines Field. And Pittsburgh was pretty cool at the ketchup bottle, but now it's like pay core something. I'm like you. I'm calling it Heinz. I'm not going around n. Not doing it. Just like I'm not calling progressive progressive. It's the Jake, it's Jacob's Field, the Staples center, the Gundarina. I ain't calling it the gun, baby. Out of here.
Travis Kelce
The Gundarina was my entire childhood, man.
Jason Kelce
Whatever they end up doing is going to be great for the city. And I know most of this. Most of the people in Chicago felt like they were really excited about it. So as an outsider, I'm not trying to. Should probably just shut the up in my own business.
Travis Kelce
It ain't got nothing to do with me.
Jason Kelce
That's right. That's right.
Travis Kelce
Have a good one.
Jason Kelce
All right now. Yeah.
Travis Kelce
Well.
Rob Riggle
Yeah.
Travis Kelce
That was awesome, man. I love the. I love you guys doing the ode to Chicago, getting around the fans and everything. You always kill it, my brother. And that. That wraps up new news once again. New news is brought to you by Gillette.
Jason Kelce
Nice. Alrighty. Let's. Let's move on to some bold topics from week one.
Travis Kelce
Oh yeah, let's get into it.
Jason Kelce
Bullets is brought to you by NFL Sunday Ticket on YouTube TV. Chiefs 21, Chargers 27.
Travis Kelce
Trav, man.
Jason Kelce
What are your initial, initial thoughts, Trev?
Travis Kelce
I mean, first off, I want to just give a huge shout out to Brazil. The fans down there, the, the everyone that made that thing run. It was just. It was such a unique and cool atmosphere. I. It was, it was a bit of a, a different experience in terms of getting ready for the game and traveling all the way down there and just the prep and everything that we had to go through. But at the end of the day, football's football and the game and atmosphere was absolutely electric. We got to see a lot of people, a lot of friends and family and. Or at least the football family. And it was. It was a cool experience outside of us just not getting off on the right foot. And that's. Again, I know it's kind of sounded like a broken record from last year's super bowl, but that's on. On us as leaders and I'll take the most accountability myself. I wasn't ready that first drive. I ran into one of my guys and often out of the game, I literally took one of my players out. That's one of the most frustrating parts. And it's hard to get your juices back going knowing you just heard a guy. Yeah, it's just. It's a frustrating, frustrating way to start off the season. Way frustrating way to start off the game. But you could take some good from that second half. But at the end of the day, man, we just got to be able to win up front, be accountable on the back end and. And be able to, you know, start. Start fast and finish stronger, man.
Jason Kelce
Well, you know, you brought up the worthy play and I think that's the one that was the most jarring early on. For those of you that haven't seen it, we have a clip here. What. I guess when I was watching this, I don't know and I think obviously this is a rub route concept. You guys are trying to run routes close to each other to throw the DBs and have to make them alter their course. How does this go wrong? Who's like, who's got the. Right away at the stop sign here?
Travis Kelce
The. I'm supposed to be running my route at depth for. For worthy. So it's. It's frustrating for me. I was trying to kind of set up my guy to be able to get in a position to. And it all just happened pretty quick and I just got to be better, man. I'm 13 years in the league. There's no excuse for me running into my own guys like that and being able to play fast and. And help him out. Where they had his guy beat and we're out the gate and that game starts completely different.
Jason Kelce
Right.
Travis Kelce
You know, instead, I'm not sure where he is exactly in terms of health wise, but I'm hoping that we get him back as fast as possible because he means so much to this team and I. I was the. His biggest.
Jason Kelce
You've been hyping him up.
Travis Kelce
Not just fan, man. I can see that guy and how hard he works and I can see his game getting better and I know he's going to take the league by Storm when he gets back. The biggest thing is that he's one of our best players, right? He's going to take that step into being one of the best wide receivers in the National Football League. And I run into him and all of a sudden one of the biggest pieces of the game plan is out.
Jason Kelce
Of the game for sure.
Travis Kelce
You know, one of the most val. One of the fastest guys in the league and speed kills in this league is, you know, now they don't have to worry about that.
Jason Kelce
Right.
Travis Kelce
Thankfully enough we had Tran, Thornton and, and Hollywood Brown to, you know, be able to step up in those situations. Not that they weren't already in the game plan, but obviously you need to fill the, fill those spots.
Jason Kelce
Juju Smith Schuster had a freaking great game.
Travis Kelce
I love Juju, man. He. He helped save that offense in, in, in a lot of different ways, man. I just love having that guy as a teammate, man. And yeah, I think, yeah, I mean.
Jason Kelce
It'S frustrating whenever you lose a guy that early. You. You run the plays that are called. But the coaches all week are trying to design specific things around the skills that, that each guy has and the players that they envision at those spots and like the personnel groupings and all that stuff goes into a factor and Worthy is such a. Whenever you, you're unique in one thing, coaches are going to try and design things around that unique talent that you have. And Worthy's happens to be one of them, is that he's insanely fast and quick. So you have all these things in and you want those to be a big part of your game plan. And all of a sudden he's out in the first series. And same thing happened to Philadelphia. We Ben Van Sumerin, who listen, not a lot of people know him like, this is a guy that everybody was excited about. He's a great special teams player and he's been playing fullback now for us. He goes down opening kickoff. I don't know how many plays are in the game plan, but you got all these plays where you're anticipating to have a fullback available and now like he's gone like that. Those reps that you did during the week are now done. Like you're not running those plays anymore. So that's one of the things that can really frustrate you about it. An injury early, especially when it's a guy that's very unique who it's going to be hard to replicate that with.
Travis Kelce
But anyways, yeah, I owe my guy big time, man. X knows it. I, I felt like I could barely Even play the rest of that first half, man. But we geared it up once I found out that. That he was, you know, in better spirits than I. Than I imagined at halftime. So just tried to go back out there and win that thing for him.
Jason Kelce
Let's talk about something positive. Fire drill. Field goal.
Travis Kelce
No gray, baby.
Jason Kelce
Dude, no gray.
Travis Kelce
Smart football player, baby.
Jason Kelce
Smart football player, man.
Travis Kelce
Just a ball player.
Jason Kelce
For those of you that don't know, this only happens. Teams go out of their way to try and make sure you don't get put in this position. You try to make sure you can clock it or call a timeout. The last thing you want to do is get tackled going out of bounds or inbounds. So now the clock's running.
Travis Kelce
Yeah.
Jason Kelce
With the clock moving because momentum stopped before he got out of bounds. Seven seconds to go.
Travis Kelce
It's fourth down. They can't spike it, so Butker's coming out. Will they get it off?
Jason Kelce
They do, but I mean, from 59. Insane.
Rob Riggle
It's good.
Jason Kelce
Yeah. These. These things are so hard to execute because of the speed. The kicker doesn't have time to set everything up. You got to just go. And you might get one of them a year, if that. You're trying to make sure from a call stamp lane. That play was designed for Noah to hopefully be able to get out of bounds on his own ability. Great play by the defense to knock him out going backwards because that's the one way he goes out of bounds. Of the clock runs.
Travis Kelce
Yeah.
Jason Kelce
So now all of a sudden, you guys got to go fire drill. You got to go freaking like you gotta. It's no huddle. Field goal. One of the hardest things to execute. And the team did an unbelievable job. Noah Gray, you already shot him out. Runs onto the field, making sure to get the ball back into where it needs to get spotted. I see my man. I think it was wan. Yeah. Is he the one that's eligible? One of the guys, he's like. Yeah, he's running and making himself eligible.
Travis Kelce
Got to make sure everybody know. Everybody knows the eligible guys. You got to make sure that you know.
Jason Kelce
And for those of you that don't know, on field goal, typically you have more offensive linemen than on a regular play.
Travis Kelce
The problem is everybody's got to be ready on the sideline to understand that situation is happening.
Jason Kelce
Yes. And the problem with having more offensive lineman is you have to declare eligible if you have an ineligible. Number. So for an offensive lineman, if you're a tight end on field goal, you have to tell the official you're eligible.
Travis Kelce
Yeah.
Jason Kelce
So not only are you running on the field to try and get set up, you're trying to find the official and make sure you're signaling to him. And this all has to happen in nine seconds, and the snapper has to get set up, the holder has to set up. The kicker's getting walking off his line, and, like, the chance that that thing gets, like, done without a hitch is. Is very low. So, yeah, shout out to the Chiefs. That was one of the positive things.
Travis Kelce
Dave. Toad, baby. Coach Tobe. Hey, there we go, coordinator. There we go, Coach, baby. That's my guy right there.
Jason Kelce
We also got a big yeti touchdown. Little fake wide receiver. Screen flanking.
Travis Kelce
He's flanking every time, baby. Every time. Always flanking, man. Bull don't care, baby.
Jason Kelce
Yeah, so for people that don't know this is a fake little bubble screen to the back. Trav is gonna act like he's blocking kind of. Although it didn't look like you guys really sold the blocking aspect as much. You just kind of, like, mosey enough the ball, and then you kick it into second gear. I don't want to. I know you probably don't want to get into.
Travis Kelce
I mean, it's. It's exactly what you were saying it was. And I saw the flat defender go with the back and the. The corner latch, and I just said, let me get out of here. Let me. Let me go. Let me. Let me catch them while they're not thinking. I'm going deep.
Jason Kelce
Nice. Big yeti can still scoot into the end zone, baby. What's with the bull? What's with this touchdown? We had a lot of questions.
Travis Kelce
Bodacious effort, baby. Bull don't care, baby. We're down, but we're not out.
Jason Kelce
That's a Eugene Chung staple right there.
Travis Kelce
Oh, hell, yeah, baby.
Jason Kelce
Coach Chung.
Travis Kelce
Oh, yeah. Shout out to Coach Chung, man. And coach Andy Heck, baby, for continuing keeping it alive. Oh, yeah.
Jason Kelce
Perfect.
Travis Kelce
Oh, yeah.
Jason Kelce
What are the takeaways after week one? Week two? What? Where are the Kansas City Chiefs at? What are we trying to make sure we fix?
Travis Kelce
Motivated football team. Motivated football team going in against the team we just. We just got beat by in the Super Bowl. A team that we feel like we didn't play our best and coming off a week where we didn't feel like we played our best. So we got to fix a lot of things, both offensively and defensively, and we got to get this thing going, man. We got to get this train running a little bit more. And the biggest thing for me is energy, man. We got to come out with energy. And I know Arrowhead's gonna bring it. It's going to be fun to. To feel that atmosphere, but unless the players are on the field doing that, Arrowhead's not going to be a fun atmosphere, man. So we gotta bring it knowing that we got one of the best teams or the champs coming in.
Jason Kelce
Yeah.
Travis Kelce
Speaking of the champs, let's get to them. The Eagles 24, Cowboys 20.
Jason Kelce
Yeah.
Travis Kelce
First football game of the 2025 season. Everyone gets to see the birds, baby.
Jason Kelce
Yeah.
Travis Kelce
What was it like watching the Eagles banner night? As a. As a fan, it was awesome.
Jason Kelce
It was. I feel like. So my man BG was down there on the field with Jeffrey Lurie as well as a bunch of fans and people. They did the Eagles fight song, and then the banner got dropped, and I don't know, I might have missed the time. I didn't actually see the banner officially fall. I was looking forward to that. At one point, BG just, like, pointed, and then I was like, oh. And then it was already down. So it felt like the timing kind of. If I'm being completely honest, I feel like the timing got a little up. I don't know if that's fair to say, but it was electric. Did not disappoint. Before the game, during the game, fans were freaking. Going crazy.
Travis Kelce
I was about to say the link looked like it was.
Jason Kelce
It was rocky. It was. It was. It was very much a fun place to be. Got a much closer game than I think anybody was expecting.
Travis Kelce
We can go ahead and jump off the game with how the game jumped off. Little Jalen Carter spit on deck after deck. Antagonized him a little bit.
Jason Kelce
I can't emphasize how crazy this, like, sequence of events was from the, like, box that I was in. All I. You see the opening kickoff, and then within a span of, like, a minute, there's a guy in the field, a cart coming out, and Jalen Carter just walking off the field. I'm like, what the. What the hell's going on right now?
Travis Kelce
Yeah.
Jason Kelce
And then an announcement that he's been ejected from the game. Ben Van Sumerin, a guy that everybody's looking forward to playing this year, who's been getting a lot of reps in a fullback and special teams coming off of a torn patella tendon gets hurt, so he's carted off. I was just like, dude, the game hasn't even started and we just lost two players for the entire day. This is wild.
Travis Kelce
That's crazy.
Jason Kelce
And I'm like, what the hell happened?
Travis Kelce
Season hasn't even, like.
Jason Kelce
Like, it's gotta be the craziest. It's gotta by far be the craziest start to a season ever. In fact, I believe Jalen Carter being ejected. He broke an Eagles. He broke an NFL record that a previous Eagle held, which Jeremiah Trotter held the previous record for the fastest ejection in NFL season's history. So Eagles pretty good at getting ejected early.
Travis Kelce
Yeah, well, let's. Let's do it next Sunday, boys.
Jason Kelce
Again, I didn't know what had happened. And I remember turning to Richard Green, one of the owners of the Eagles. I'm standing right next to. Sitting right next to him. I'm like, what the heck happened? And he said he spit on him. I'm like, what? And then I, like, I'm going online on Twitter to find out, like, what's going in the. I mean, just like, Hawks and loogie right on deck. I think everybody knows that now. And I'm just, why the fuck. Why are we. What are we doing? I don't understand, like, why that would happen. And it was just a very frustrating moment, not only because he's one of our best players, but it's just a. It's just a really awful thing to kind of be out there. It's an awful thing to be a part of as a fan base, as an organization, and for that. That player, you know what I mean? Like, he's a. He's a great player. He has had all of these character things or whatever surround him, and then to do this, all of that starts getting brought back up, which I just like, man, this just really. This sucks on so many levels. He has to be smarter than this. He has to be better than this. And he has said so much. I mean, he said it right after game. It won't happen again. He has a chance to be one of the best defensive linemen in this general era of football. That's how good this kid can be. That's how dominant he has been to this point.
Travis Kelce
Yeah.
Jason Kelce
Don't let this dumb behavior jeopardize the career and person and legacy you can build, especially in this city. You shouldn't let that jeopardize you. And listen, I've made mistakes, too. I'm not.
Travis Kelce
I've gotten kicked out of games for throwing a goddamn towel at a ref. Like, what. What are we doing? You know what I mean? You just got to be able to keep your composure, understand that this team needs you. And. And. And you know what? I Mean, just keep your blood pressure down. Whatever you got to do to stay in that game.
Jason Kelce
Yeah. Woo.
Travis Kelce
Yeah, there you go, the old woo.
Jason Kelce
That's the beautiful thing about this game too. I mean, listen, I. Everybody saw Dak spit afterwards. Whatever channel you got to water, boy, this thing, you got four quarters now to have Dak spitting towards you on your mind, to take that out on Tyler Booker and like, that's the beautiful thing about football. You don't need to do that back. You got four quarters to do something back to this dude. You're going to have your chances, bubba. So I think, you know, it's just, it's really unfortunate that that happened. It's really unfortunate that now he's going to have that image on him. And like, again, we all make mistakes. I've done things that I am not proud of. Everybody gets caught up in the heat of the moment. He's taking accountability now moving forward. We need you to be better than that, Jalen. We have to have you better than that and you need to be better than that for yourself. All right, shout out to our partner.
Travis Kelce

Travis Kelce
Yeah, do you want to talk about the. The weather delay? I don't think I've ever had an actual weather delay.
Jason Kelce
You've. I feel like I've watched a game where you had a weather delay one time.
Travis Kelce
You know what it was like in the beginning before the game started. I think, though.
Jason Kelce
Okay. All right. Yeah, this one was.
Travis Kelce
I don't know if I've ever had, like go back into the locker room, but somebody in the locker room's giving you an update on the situation, how many, how much time you have. I think it's something like we gotta wait 30 minutes after every light, every lightning strike in a certain area radius around the stadium. Yeah, you're so you're getting Updates on how much time you have left. When can we go back out on the field? When is this thing going to get going? So you have an understanding of that. Some guys go on their phones, some guys put the headphones back on so they stay in the zone. Some guys, you know, just stay loose, things like that.
Jason Kelce
I'm not going to lie. This isn't Little League football. It's not Little League soccer. I think we should just play through the lightning. I don't know what we're going inside for. What are the chances somebody gets struck? And if it does, it's gonna be.
Travis Kelce
Electric as it's gonna be good for tv.
Jason Kelce
It's gonna be electric. Now. It's gotta play through that, boys. It's part of the game. AJ Brown up for a deep ball. Like, holy shit, he's down. You imagine that highlight.
Travis Kelce
Yeah, we probably shouldn't put that in there either.
Jason Kelce
I think most people know I'm joking, but we'll see. Felt like both offenses struggled after the delay. Both offenses were clicking really early. I thought the Eagles came out with, you know, their beginners or whatever you want to call it. They had some really cool design plays, some. Some big hitters. And then after that, it kind of felt like it was a little bit slower offensively. Thought Jalen Hurts. Played really well and took what the defense was giving them. Was very smart, was very calculated. But the one glaring thing is obviously, we gotta give fucking A.J. brown the ball. I mean, I think that that's. We can't let a game get to that point without getting them the ball. And you've been a part of this. What's it like being in a game where it's like, it's just not coming your way? Oh, like it's.
Travis Kelce
Bro, you're winning.
Jason Kelce
Who gives a man, get the out of here. I played receiver. I know. When you were getting open and you're not getting the ball. It is frustrating as.
Travis Kelce
I don't want to hear if we're winning. I. Nobody.
Jason Kelce
You don't care.
Travis Kelce
Nobody wants to hear how you feel when we're winning.
Jason Kelce
I understand. Don't even.
Travis Kelce
Don't even let yourself get to that point, dog.
Jason Kelce
I'm not even letting. I'm saying. But what's going on in your head? What's the honest truth in your head that's happening.
Travis Kelce
We're winning. I can't say.
Jason Kelce
Nobody's saying you're gonna say something.
Travis Kelce
I can't say. What am I gonna say? Oh, I need the ball.
Jason Kelce
Nobody's saying. What do you Give me a chance.
Travis Kelce
That's what I'm saying in my head. I'm just like, we're winning. Let's keep this thing going.
Jason Kelce
You're not frustrated one bit? No, I'm not buying that.
Travis Kelce
Do I feel. Do I feel like I'm not contributing as much as I could? Yes, but that's not frustrating. Frustrate. Like, there's nothing frustrating about winning.
Jason Kelce
Let's move on.
Travis Kelce
I'm pissed because I'm not getting the ball is such a good. If we're winning, there's nothing to be pissed about.
Jason Kelce
I'm not saying you're pissed. I said frustrated, which is two different things. And I think that it is very normal when you're a receiver and you're open and you're not getting the ball, you feel like you're one of the best players in the league and you're not being incorporated into an offense. I think it's a very normal feeling to be a little bit frustrated. Even if the offense is winning the game, I still think it's normal to be like, man, come on, man. Like, I. I still think that's a normal thing. Now, he still went out there and played and to my knowledge, he didn't complain about it one bit. But I think moving forward, I mean, this is the way it works. Like, the coaches are going to make sure that there's more design things for them. It's.
Travis Kelce
I mean, I would say I'm so wrapped in the team success and everything and I get excited about everyone else's success that I'm not really. If we're not performing as an offense and I'm not like getting opportunities like that. Yeah, that's frustrating, you know, because I feel like I can help my team with that. But if we're rolling as an offense, I don't have anything to be frustrated about.
Jason Kelce
Well, I can tell you I played freshman football. I played receiver for a little bit.
Travis Kelce
And well, Jason, I was all I would. I saw all those games and you guys were not winning.
Jason Kelce
I'm telling you what, I was getting frustrated. I was like, throw me the ball. What the you doing? I'm. I'm the best player on this field. Why are we not throwing me the ball? It's the dumbest thing in the world. Coach Hu me run laps. How could you be so selfish? Like you coach who? I didn't say that. One of it. You would never, never say that. Coach. That mustache beat my ass.
Travis Kelce
He put you in a full Nelson.
Jason Kelce
But that dude, I just think. I think being Receiver and not getting the ball. And listen, AJ's a great teammate. He's going to make sure that he's not making it. Vocalized in a negative way. And I just, you know, we gotta. You can't let four. Four quarters go by before this dude touches the ball. It's just not. Not only to make. Keep him happy, just to have the best offense, like, he's the. He's the best player on the team. He should be touching the ball. I mean, I'm not throwing. I mean, Saquon's pretty good, too. Jalen's pretty good. I mean, we got a lot of good players, fortunately, in Philadelphia, but you.
Travis Kelce
Want to get that guy the ball if you're the Eagles.
Jason Kelce
Yeah. And I'm not even saying, like, Jalen played great. I don't know what the answer is. I just blocked for a living. But.
Travis Kelce
Nice. All right, any. Any other takeaways from the Eagles? Week one?
Jason Kelce
Yeah. I mean, listen, everybody's talking about, you know, we could have played better in the back end corner position. Two has been one that we've been trying to figure out. A Dory Jackson had a tough matchup. CD Lamb is one of the best receivers in the league. And, you know, they got George Pickens now, and Dak Prescott's a great quarterback. I mean, the Dallas offense is very. Has some playmakers, and the offensive line played pretty well. I know they're kind of young and new, but, you know, I still got faith in these guys. They'll figure it out. I think even Adore Jackson figured out. If everybody remembers from last year, you know, defense looked a little spotty.
Travis Kelce
It's not how you start, man.
Jason Kelce
And I think we have great coaches. We really do. And it's. Everybody knows Vic Fangio is a great coach. I think our position coaches are fantastic as well. I think our DB coaches, our linebacker coaches are our dealer. I've seen guys develop, and that's what gives me confidence. Like, I know it was a rough night, but the beautiful thing about football is, I mean, unless you bench, you get an opportunity to go out there and make that correction, right? And you get an opportunity all week to try and get better. And we're going to get to see how these guys respond this week against Kansas City and moving forward. And I got to think that these guys are going to be able to make the adjustments necessary. Offensively, I think there's a lot of good to take away from it. Not consistent enough. Not consistent enough in the run game. Right. We let. We let some of the Movement things get us a little bit here and there, but overall, as a week one game, I'm happy that we won. We, we hung in there and played well enough, long enough to get a win. Now we can keep moving forward, making the corrections and getting back to where we need to be to try and compete for another world championship. That's my take.
Travis Kelce
Well, we'll see you Birds next week. Arrowhead, baby. Arrowhead is going to be rocking. All right, I say we talk about the rest of the NFL. Week one.
Jason Kelce
Nice. All right, let's get into it. We're calling this section rest of week one overreact. Underreact. We're gonna hit a bunch of topics and say, is everybody overreacting this or is everybody underreacted? Are we overreacting? I don't even know. We'll figure out how we do this. All right. Ravens and Bills was the game of the year. It was incredible. I mean, outstanding game. Was this a collapse or a comeback is the question.
Travis Kelce
I mean, it's both. I hate to say it, it's both, but it's a little bit of.
Jason Kelce
It's a collapse. It's a collapse, man. 40 to 25 lead, like if you lose that lead, it is far more on the team that had the edge. Winning. Right.
Travis Kelce
100.
Jason Kelce
Can't let a team come back from that.
Travis Kelce
And on top of that, you got.
Jason Kelce
The best player in the world.
Travis Kelce
Running game in the league. You have literally a two headed monster back there in terms of speed and lightning and Lamar and, and King Henry and I mean, I know Derrick Henry's got to be kicking himself. He's probably already taken the, the blame for the loss. I think he had stand up guy.
Jason Kelce
But I think he had like maybe two fumbles all of last season.
Travis Kelce
I've never seen the man fumble in my life.
Jason Kelce
It's nuts.
Travis Kelce
Like, he played him every single year in the afc. Never seen him fumble the football ever.
Jason Kelce
And in his defense, Ed Oliver was on him like as he was getting the handoffs.
Travis Kelce
Like, he was like, he was like taking off one finger at a time.
Jason Kelce
Yeah, yeah.
Travis Kelce
You know what I mean? It was a crazy situation, man.
Jason Kelce
Yeah, I know, I know. And it wasn't even just him. Like it all started, bro. They, they punted a ball. The ball is like dribbling at the one yard line. Clearly not going in the end zone when that happened. And this dude just jumps on it and like, and we go over this, this is why it's frustrating that people. This has gone over like routinely in special teams meeting do not go into the end zone. Like what do we. There's no need to. Like if I could see the ball.
Travis Kelce
Dive on the ball.
Jason Kelce
Right?
Travis Kelce
They just hit it back.
Jason Kelce
Yeah, dude. Never let your momentum take you into the end zone. It's just a very basic premise.
Travis Kelce
That's a tough one.
Jason Kelce
And it was from there that the Bills got the ball at the 20 yard line. That's when the whole thing started, right. They get. Then all of a sudden the Derek Henry exacerbates things. They score on a tipped like 4th down or whatever into the end zone. On that one. Yes, it was a completely wild. And then the fourth, the, the four minute drill. They do like two hand one hand off to Derek Henry like an outside zone play. Then they do like a gadget little like jet suite play. It's like, dude, put the ball in Lamar Jackson's hands. What the fuck are we doing? And then they finally get aggressive throw on third down. They're short. And then the election upon. I mean even that's like at that point you can't give the ball back to Josh Allen. With Josh Allen too much time. He's got four downs in over a minute to get into field goal range. We can't do that. Right.
Travis Kelce
And he's got momentum.
Jason Kelce
Not just momentum. I, they're like, they're running downhill. This thing is, this is an avalanche at this point. And the only thing that can stop the avalanche is the abominable Lamar Jackson. That's the only thing that's going to be able to stop this motherfucker.
Travis Kelce
It definitely should have been in his hands for sure.
Jason Kelce
Hindsight's always 20 20. I know that those 4th and 3 is a tough one. If it's 4th or 2 and 1. I bet it's not even a question. 4th and 3 is like, man, this is like, this is hard. And if it doesn't happen, it's. Well I guess if it doesn't happen, then you got to hope you can get three and out, let them get the field goal and hopefully get the ball back to try your own version of this.
Travis Kelce
Yeah. So are people overreacting or underreacting to this game? Oh yeah, yeah. The segment. There's a premise.
Jason Kelce
There's a premise here. I mean it's not. It's too early to be game of the year, so I'll go overreact. But I mean it's incredible.
Travis Kelce
The stakes aren't high enough. Even though it's two, it's going to be two of the best teams in the, in the afc, I think. Game of the year. Game of week one for sure.
Jason Kelce
Yeah. No question. It was one of the best ways to kick off the opening week of NFL in the history. Both MVPs of the last two years. Lamar and Josh Allen going head to head like that.
Travis Kelce
Yeah.
Jason Kelce
And.
Travis Kelce
And you see an MVP performance out of both of them.
Jason Kelce
Yeah.
Travis Kelce
Hell yeah. Sign me up. I'll watch that again. Also got a shout out Matt Prater. Hey, yeah. We got Elizabeth Walker telling us on. On Twitter, Matt Prater going for. From coaching youth football to game winning kicks. Within 72 hours this guy was at a youth football practices and then going straight to the. Yeah, straight to the Bills on a. On a desperate heave to get a kicker in there at the age of 41.
Jason Kelce
Yeah, baby.
Travis Kelce
And then kicking the game winner for him. Man, he was. Everybody threw him on their shoulders like he was Rudy. Man, that she was electric at the end.
Jason Kelce
I don't even know if we have this in here, but how many games were lost from kicks this weekend? I mean, missed extra points, missed field goals. I mean, could Shador kick? If we wanted Shador to get on the field, he might have a better chance getting up there kicking. He can't do worse.
Travis Kelce
Now I want to see if he can kick just for the fun of it.
Jason Kelce
He can't do worse. I mean, I was wild. All right. Overreact. Underreact. Wide receiver one, struggling in week one. Jamar Chase 2 for 26. A.J. brown, 1 for 8. Aman Ross, St. Brown, 4 for 45. Nico Collins 3 for 25. Tyreek, 4 for 40.
Travis Kelce
Overreact. It's week one, ladies and gentlemen. They're the best players on their team. The defenses have had all off season to try and find a game plan for them. I think that's a bit of an overreact.
Jason Kelce
I'm with you. I think that it's always interesting starting the year. A lot of times it ends up being extremes. I feel like coaches have put in all this time trying to do new things. How do we combat things, how do we expand on things, innovate the sport and certain plays. So I always feel like the first four weeks, some of the teams just come in with something that's really working and some teams come in with stuff that is just like it's not working for them. So you end up having some teams like blow out. Like the jets look like the best team in the NFL right now. They, I mean, they damn near beat the Pittsburgh Steelers. Justin Field dominated. Like, we'll see how this keeps transitioning as the season goes. But it's always interesting early on. It does feel like it's not a lot of middle ground. It's like okay, either what you tried to do this offseason worked or it didn't and or like guys are executing or they're not. Like. And then eventually the. The law of averages and norms and people getting more tape out there and figuring out ways to execute leads to a more consistent basis, especially for a lot of these guys. So I'm with you. I think it's an overreact. I think you'll see these numbers fix pretty quick.
Travis Kelce
Overreact, underreact. Veteran QBs had great games on new teams. Are these just week one wonders? Daniel Jones obviously new team, veteran QB had a great game. Colts got the dub Aaron Rodgers back to looking like Aaron Rodgers went for 244 and four tuddies. Geno Smith 362. God damn. On a. I mean Gino defense.
Jason Kelce
Gino's been balling out for like three years.
Travis Kelce
So I don't know Gino's. Yeah. I mean there's a reason why I play tight.
Jason Kelce
Yeah.
Travis Kelce
And it's because of Geno. Justin Fields, now a veteran quarterback, maybe didn't have as as many starts as all these other guys but 16 to 22 for 218 and a tutty and 32 points.
Jason Kelce
Yeah.
Travis Kelce
Or led a team to score 32 points. Are we over or are we overacting or underreacting to veteran QBs having great games? And are they one week wonders?
Jason Kelce
So the underreact would be saying that they're one week wonders.
Travis Kelce
Yes.
Jason Kelce
I don't know that I'm on either fence here. I think that Daniel Jones finally being behind a competent offensive line might lead to different Daniel Jones than people have seen. I think Aaron Rodgers being in a new building that has a much better culture will lead him to playing pretty well. Justin Fields is probably the biggest outlier as well as Daniel Jones of the bunch. I do think that quarterbacks oftentimes will come in, even backups and you'll see like mid season whenever you'll see them play 2, 3, 4 games at a really high level and then all of a sudden there's a drop off. And I think once there's tape out there a lot of these things revert back to what the skill set actually is. So I don't think that we're overreacting. I think it's fair to say these guys perform really well.
Travis Kelce
Yeah.
Jason Kelce
And I but I also don't Think that they're one week wonders. Like, I think by all accounts these guys could end up being the Sam Darnolds of this year or the Geno Smith of three years ago, or the Baker Mayfields of what happened down in Tampa Bay. Like a change in scenery, a lot of the times can prove to be pretty damn good for talented quarterbacks.
Travis Kelce
Hell yeah, I'm with you on that. Overreact, underreact. Lions without Ben Johnson struggles. I think that is pretty on par. I don't think that's overreact or underreact. They gotta find. They gotta find some.
Jason Kelce
It's a fair concern, especially with the way it looked. I mean, the Lions didn't get into the end zone until the final drive and garbage time basically by with an incredible catch, by the way.
Travis Kelce
Yeah. All right.
Jason Kelce
Now I think that everybody is accurately questioning what the Detroit Lions are. And I think when you go out and play offensively like that, I think you're going to get that. I also don't think it's just Ben Johnson though. I think that they lost. Their entire interior line has been either lost or reshuffled. Frank Ragnar retired. Zeitler left. Glasgow, who's played guard for them more routinely, is now playing center. So that's a lot of change with three out of the 11 starters on your offense. Especially in an offense that's predicated primarily on running the football and play action. They were held to 44 yards rushing the last time that happened. I was still in the NFL. This is a new Lions offense. That's like over a year ago.
Travis Kelce
Yeah, I mean, I. I think it's an overreaction. Dan Campbell. If there's one thing Dan Campbell's going to get going, it's that run game. He's a tough son of a buck. His teams are always one of the toughest in the league. He's going to get those guys motivated, fired up running the football, get Gibbs at Montgomery going and that's going to open up everything in the back.
Jason Kelce
And also the packers are pretty damn good, especially with Parsons on the team. Like this is a very new.
Travis Kelce
I think that's even more of the overreactions that they weren't playing any, just slappies.
Jason Kelce
Well, that's the under reaction people are under reacting to like how good the Packers I think are going to be end up being this year.
Travis Kelce
There you go.
Jason Kelce
Alrighty. Do we want to show Michael Parsons for a sec? Dude, this dude, he came out of this thing like a bobcat. You watch this. Check out Parsons sec Watch this.
Kevin Hart
Second and ten.
Travis Kelce
His Golf's being chased by Parsons.
Jason Kelce
He's got like a.
Rob Riggle
His first sack as a Green Bay packer.
Travis Kelce
It's like every single time in Terminator when he's like, finally getting away from the silver dude.
Jason Kelce
Yeah, he's just like.
Travis Kelce
And he looks at his rear view.
Jason Kelce
And the dude is just so good. That is so good. That is such a good reference.
Travis Kelce
It's so freakishly athletic, man. So powerful.
Jason Kelce
Yeah, I was gonna say it like reminded me of like a lioness hunting, like a gazelle. Like, it just like it was like in the. In the weeds and all of a sudden and then it's like out there. But I. I think I like your analogy way better. That was dope. That immediately brought back memories. That's great. All right, last thing. Mike Tomlin, quote of the week. I mean, you could give this to Mike Tomlin every week. He's a quote machine.
Travis Kelce
He is.
Jason Kelce
Our kicker is a serial killer.
Travis Kelce
What?
Jason Kelce
Let's see this.
Travis Kelce
I can't say enough about boss man. Our kicker is a serial killer, man.
Kevin Hart
He's.
Travis Kelce
He got a low pulse rate. He can't wait to deliver. Way to fire up your kicker.
Jason Kelce
This guy's the best.
Travis Kelce
The most non violent, like, threatening position on the field.
Jason Kelce
But if we're being honest, a lot of times that's what serial killers are. A lot of times serial killers are. Yeah, they're not like the big bad guy. They're the guy that's living off in the cabin and creating bombs and stuff.
Travis Kelce
The guy's over on field three kicking.
Jason Kelce
Yeah. Hey, what's that guy doing over there? Why is there a package on the front door?
Travis Kelce
All right, that does it for bold topics brought to you by Sunday Ticket on YouTube TV. And don't forget the multi view in the NFL Sunday Ticket. You can watch up to four games at once.
Jason Kelce
Hey, now sign me up. I'm already signed up. I used it actually at the bar this week. At the bar. I couldn't see all the games at Jake Melnick bar in Chicago.
Travis Kelce
Yeah.
Jason Kelce
So I had the four panel going on my phone and I was watching two other games on the tv. They had the Browns game going over top at the end of it when the freaking kicker kept missing the fields. That was frustrating.
Travis Kelce
I was kind of like, come on.
Jason Kelce
Browns, you could do it. You can do.
Travis Kelce
You could be the hero.
Jason Kelce
Don't forget the multi view and NFL Sunday ticket. You can watch up to four games at once. Hey, how about a quick fave four travel faith for NFL Sunday Ticket and YouTube TV features. I think obviously one of them is you can watch YouTube TV and you can watch NFL games anywhere.
Travis Kelce
Not right now.
Jason Kelce
How about no hidden fees? I'm a big fan of no hidden fees.
Travis Kelce
Big fan of no hidden fees.
Jason Kelce
How about up to six individual accounts? I'll tell you what, that's going to come in mighty handy as these girls start growing up. I don't want them messing up my algorithm. What's a. What's the fourth one? I'll probably go. Being able to just build out your entire own multi view.
Travis Kelce
Yeah.
Jason Kelce
Pick your four games you want to watch. Yeah, but it's not even just the games. Like anything on YouTube TV, like your home page and like, it starts to learn what you like so you, like, you could build out, basically.
Travis Kelce
I was watching college Games and the U.S. open last week.
Jason Kelce
Nice. All righty. Before we get to our guests, Trav, you want to do a little stamp of the week?
Travis Kelce
Yeah.
Jason Kelce
Yeah.
Travis Kelce
We're bringing stamp of the week back, baby. And after the first week of the NFL season, let's get to a little.
Rob Riggle
Stamp of the week.
Travis Kelce
See who we give some love to. Stamp of the week is brought to you by Raising Cane's Chicken Fingers. How about it, man? Raising Canes.
Jason Kelce
Who doesn't love fried chicken?
Travis Kelce
Shout out to our friends at Raising Canes. How about it, man? My stamp of the week is tight end Indianapolis Colts Tyler Warren. First game of his career. Seven reception, 76 yards on a. With a quarterback that said that everybody said didn't have it anymore with Daniel Jones, man, just to surprise the entire NFL. And I'll tell you what, man, this guy was a. He was a problem at Penn State. When he got the ball, he got north. He knew exactly how to knife the defense. Could go up, make any catch you need. I'm excited to see this guy's career keep going in a hell of a way to start off your NFL career, brother. With a dub and seven receptions for 76 yards, man. Congrats.
Jason Kelce
If you're going with a rookie, I'm gonna go the opposite of rookie. I'm gonna go with Matthew Stafford. Our good friend Maddie Stafford, baby. Former New Heights guest, Matthew Staff. Tenth player to throw for 60,000 yards in the NFL.
Travis Kelce
Holy.
Jason Kelce
That is rare territory. Way to go, Matthews. Congratulations once again.
Travis Kelce
Stamp of the week is brought to you by Raising Canes. Chicken fingers. They're everywhere.
Jason Kelce
Go and get you some. Thank you to our partner, Raisin Canes.
Rob Riggle
Raising Canes.
Travis Kelce
I'll tell you what, man. Back in the day, and when I say back in the day, just like a decade ago when I was in college when I used to drive to Ohio State or around Columbus, I would go through the Columbus drive thru at Raising Cane's every single time.
Jason Kelce
Dedication, Trav. And it makes sense because that cane sauce is unmatched. And don't even get me started on that Texas toast.
Travis Kelce
All right, now.
Jason Kelce
Yeah. And now they have over 900 restaurants, so you no longer have to make the long drive over to Columbus.
Travis Kelce
Damn straight I do not. Is right down the street. Jason, what's your go to order at Cane's?
Jason Kelce
Chicken Fingers.
Travis Kelce
I love it, man. That's. That's my favorite order too, Jason. But we got to give a shout out to the owner and founder, Todd Graves. Man, such a good dude. He's huge in the philanthropy world. He helps out a lot of foundations, including mine, 87 and running and.
Jason Kelce
Nice. Don't wait another day to try the best chicken fingers in the game. Raising Canes is waiting for you.
Travis Kelce
Thank you to our sponsor, Allstate.
Jason Kelce
Nice. Some people just know they could save hundreds on car insurance by checking Allstate first. Like, you know to check if your beach chair isn't broken first before leaning back to watch the sunset.
Travis Kelce
Oh, you're a big sunset guy. Like, you know to check if your fantasy team roster is set first before the Sunday kickoff.
Jason Kelce
You do. Like, you know to check if you're. If the avocado is ripe before planting a taco night.
Travis Kelce
So check All Save first for a quote that could save you hundreds of. You're in good hands with Allstate.

All right, now let's get to the the Eagle's Chiefs preview. We got some some fun guests we want to introduce here real quick.
Jason Kelce
Differently.
Travis Kelce
Do you want to do the honors?
Jason Kelce
You know it. Trev, get ready. Alrighty, now it is time to preview what is now the annual Chiefs Eagles game. But you guys have heard us talk about both of these teams enough. So we're going to be bringing in two super fans to help us preview the game. First up, representing the Kansas City Chiefs from the University of Kansas. He is an actor, comedian, and a United States Marine. You know, from The Hangover. Step Brothers, 21 Jump St. The Daily Show. Holy moly is so much more. Please welcome Mr. Rob Rigo. Yeah. Big Rick. Oh, my God, that's great.
Rob Riggle
All right, thanks, guys. Grant, so glad to be here. I can't wait to see who you brought on to join us today. I'm so excited.
Jason Kelce
Well represented the Philadelphia Eagles from the Community College of Philadelphia. He is a comedian right now, entrepreneur, actor and producer. You know him from his global stand up shows, Jumanji Ride Along, Coldest Balls, all the draftkings, commercials and much more. Then we have time to really rattle off. Please welcome Mr. Kevin Philadelphia Zone.
Kevin Hart
The first time I think I realized that I don't. I don't have any phrases. Rob had a bunch of noises. Nothing. It's just me off, Rob.
Jason Kelce
Well, are you guys ready to represent your team?
Kevin Hart
I am.
Jason Kelce
We know what we're here for.
Kevin Hart
I am.
Jason Kelce
All righty. How are we feeling about the season so far? Let's start with you, Rob.
Kevin Hart
Well, it's an easy conversation. I mean, it's not starting off with a band. It's not starting off with a bag.
Rob Riggle
I believe that was. He's asking me.
Kevin Hart
Well, yeah, in this case, it's not starting off with a bag.
Travis Kelce
I'm sorry.
Kevin Hart
So I figured I would help with your answer. Right.
Travis Kelce
I didn't set you up.
Rob Riggle
This is what, what great moments are made of.
Jason Kelce
This is.
Rob Riggle
This is what it is. You can't, you can't.
Jason Kelce
You can't have a.
Rob Riggle
A comeback unless you start out a little. A little rocky.
Jason Kelce
So.
Rob Riggle
So what? We lost the first game. It was in. It was in a totally different time zone. We were playing in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, for crying out loud. How's anybody expected to play at these times? This is ridiculous. So first of all, we, we're fighting the clock. We're fighting the other team. You know, we're. You're playing all. You're playing on a different continent, for crying out loud.
Jason Kelce
So I can't understand anything. Anybody rare.
Rob Riggle
That's weird. Nobody understands. It was weird. I just put that in a weird category. So the season really starts.
Jason Kelce
Hey, hey.
Rob Riggle
It starts this weekend.
Travis Kelce
And of course in Arrowhead, baby.
Rob Riggle
It's going to be a repeat. Oh, Arrowhead is going to be electrified. Loudest stadium in the world. I don't know if that's true, but definitely in America. And you know, I just think it's going to be an incredible week. So to answer your question shortly, not, not super stoked about the way it started, but super excited about where it's going.
Jason Kelce
There we go.
Kevin Hart
Like, spoken like a true loser, right? Yeah, no, spoken like a true loser. I mean, I heard everything but accountability there, right?
Jason Kelce
Everything but accountability.
Kevin Hart
Everything but accountability. We talked about Brazil, we talked about the time zones. We talked about not being able to understand fatigue. I didn't hear anything that I should have heard. And by the way, that's the bigger issue. That's the issue that we're dealing with.
Jason Kelce
Right now in general. Right.
Kevin Hart
We're dealing with a much larger issue, Rob, and you may not want to address it, but I will. Jason, throw the question to me, please. Can I go?
Jason Kelce
Yes.
Kevin Hart
Can you ask me? Jason?
Jason Kelce
Kevin, how do you feel about the starts of the season so far for the Philadelphia Eagles?
Kevin Hart
First of all, I've never been. I've never been more ecstatic about a football season in my life. I mean, I mean, listen, you know, when you. When you come. Come off of a Super bowl, the. The first thing you want, right, As a. As a competitor, as a guy that understands what happens in these locker rooms, the first thing that you want to see at the start of a new season, you want to see the same energy and you want to see the same tone. More importantly, you want to see that. You want to see that tone. Get set out the gate. Coming out the gate and handling. Handling the Cowboys, who are. Yes. In our division. It sets a tone. It sets a tone to say we're back and we're ready to do what we did before. By the way, everybody else in the NFL, I don'. Know what you guys are doing, but guess what we're doing. We're playing winning football. This isn't Kansas City. This is the Philadelphia Eagles. It's the Philadelphia Eagles. I mean, talk about the firing me up.
Jason Kelce
You're firing me up, Kevin.
Kevin Hart
I've never been pumped up. And by the way. By the way, I saw a little. Russ, I saw. I saw some things where, you know, we got some kicks and stuff that we got to work out. I want AB to get the ball a little more. I want to see our wide receivers be a little more active. Saquan did exactly what we thought that he would do. We have a very strong football team and not having our defensive recruit that we just got on the field, I didn't like that. I didn't like the spit moment. So I want to see him on the field. I want to see what happens to our defense when we got that type of talent out there. So if you notice, there's a lot of energy to what I'm saying, Jason.
Jason Kelce
There's energy.
Kevin Hart
Not like Rob. When Rob was talking, he was.
Jason Kelce
He was stuttering.
Kevin Hart
He was stuttering. He had a stroke. He had a stroke in the middle of it. He was like, it was bad. Not me. Philadelphia, baby. E A G L E S E.
Rob Riggle
S. These eyes are clear, Kevin. These eyes are clear. This heart is pure. It's ready to go. The Chiefs. This is nothing.
Jason Kelce
This is nothing.
Rob Riggle
Week one is. There's a lot of season left. All right, let's get this back to.
Jason Kelce
The family, show that we are little. Friendly time. Friendly time. Kevin. Very, very clearly passionate about the Philadelphia Eagles. Can you please say something nice about the Kansas City Chiefs?
Kevin Hart
Yeah, I think the nicest thing that I can say is that they had a good run, right? I think they had a good run. And I will say this, man. I will say this greatness should always be celebrated. There is no way that you can ignore the level of greatness that the Kansas City Chiefs put on display. But what happens when greatness is displayed? People get motivated and they want to taste. And right now, the Eagles are in position to have their run of greatness. I mean, when you go and look back at the last four Super Bowls, right? The Eagles are definitely a part of the conversation. Three of those Super Bowls, we were in, two of them, we won. Not only are we winning, but we're a part of the conversation. The Kansas City Chiefs have been a part of the conversation for years. Before them, it was the Patriots. It's amazing to see dynasties happen, but dynasties in. So that there can be new ones, that's the most exciting thing. So I just. They had a good. They had a good run.
Jason Kelce
That is very nice. All right, Rob Riggle, can you please say something nice about the Philadelphia Eagles?
Rob Riggle
Well, here's the thing. Like, Kevin's right.
Jason Kelce
Like you.
Rob Riggle
You know, there are dynasties happening. Chiefs, obviously is one of them. I mean, if you talk about a team that owns the 20s thus far, it's the Chiefs. They've. They've been there every step of the way. Undeniable. And the Eagles have had. Eagles have had their moments. I won't deny that, either. The Eagles have had their moments. It's been. It's been pleasant for them, I'm sure. Not as great for as us, but it's been great for them.
Jason Kelce
They have these little pockets, you know, these little.
Rob Riggle
Little happy side parties going on.
Jason Kelce
It's fun.
Rob Riggle
But your question was. I want to get back to that. Your question was something positive about the Eagles.
Kevin Hart
You know what the question was, Rob? Answer the goddamn question.
Rob Riggle
I just want to. Because I don't want to say I'm struggling to come up with something to say, but I. Because I do.
Jason Kelce
I want to be.
Rob Riggle
You know what? Here's the thing. I'll say. I'll say about, about Eagles fans. You never have to guess where you stand with an Eagles fan, and I appreciate that.
Jason Kelce
I respect that. Very passionate.
Travis Kelce
That's a nice fan. That's a very nice thing you. That's very nice.
Rob Riggle
They will, they will throw. They will throw punches. They will throw hands. They will, they will tell you to s your own D in the parking lot.
Kevin Hart
They will, they will.
Rob Riggle
They shove people downstairs. They pull shirts over heads with, you know, hockey blows. It's all there. They. They punch out horses. I mean, you never have to guess where you stand with an Eagle's man.
Kevin Hart
Yeah.
Jason Kelce
So good.
Kevin Hart
Very passionate city. That's what I heard.
Rob Riggle
Incredibly passionate.
Travis Kelce
That being said, you know how passionate they are. Arrowhead, a very passionate, you know, place that, that we play. Kansas City gets it, Gets it fired up. Who has a better stadium experience, Arrowhead or the Link?
Kevin Hart
I, I think, I think that Arrowhead's a little safer, right? I think, I think you can say.
Jason Kelce
It'S a little more Midwestern. It's a little bit happier.
Kevin Hart
I think I can see some fans. I can see some fans in Arrowhead and I can wear an Eagles jersey. And a fan in Arrowhead may say, good luck today. And I may say, hey, good luck. Good luck to you, too.
Jason Kelce
They might offer you a plate of some barbecue.
Kevin Hart
No, they'll say, good, good luck today. And I. I'll go. You right.
Jason Kelce
Thank you.
Kevin Hart
And it's just. It's just because. It's just, just because of the way that I was raised in Philadelphia. We just have a different energy about us. But I. I'll give Arrowhead that.
Jason Kelce
Right.
Kevin Hart
It's just a little safer. A little safer.
Rob Riggle
I do appreciate your honesty though, Kevin. But I will say this. Arrowhead, very loud stadium and our tailgating. I've been to both stadiums. I have been to both tailgating in Kansas City is far superior.
Jason Kelce
Far superior. Interesting.
Kevin Hart
Superior is a strong word.
Jason Kelce
Superior.
Kevin Hart
It's a very strong word.
Rob Riggle
Superiority. I don't know how else I can say it.
Jason Kelce
Is it just the food at Arrowh or. Yes, the ambiance.
Rob Riggle
It's the food. It's the atmosphere. It's the.
Jason Kelce
It's.
Rob Riggle
It's 200 acres of barbecue being burnt smelling wonderful with everything, all the fixings. Don't forget the fixings, man. I mean, you got the coleslaw, you got the beans, you got the potatoes.
Travis Kelce
What's the best part of Eagle's tailgate?
Kevin Hart
I don't know. It's gonna be very hard to finish a conversation with somebody using the word fixing. Okay, okay. Don't forget the fixings. I almost. I almost hung up. I almost ended this when he said fixings.
Jason Kelce
What makes that tailgate so good? It's the fixes.
Kevin Hart
The beans, the slaw, the sauce.
Jason Kelce
No.
Kevin Hart
Okay. It's not Thanksgiving, right? We're talking about.
Travis Kelce
You guys haven't got to that level yet of tailgate. Once you get to that level.
Jason Kelce
Level.
Kevin Hart
Okay, first of all, Travis, you. You've never seen tailgating until you've seen it done in Philadelphia. Okay? We're talking about. We're talking about live DJs. We're talking about a city that not only stands in the space of chance, but. But. But togetherness. You know, the city of brotherly love is what we are. And on a football Sunday is where we display it. We display it. I mean, bobbleheads, big faces. We got everything. And not only do we have everything, we share with each other. Hey, you guys. Y' all need something? Y' all need drinks here? Come over here. We'll toss you some. You've never seen anything like it. Cheesesteaks, pretzels. I mean, tasty cakes. It all happens in Philadelphia. The energy that we go into that stadium with is set in the parking lot. And not only do we tailgate, we do it in places that we're not supposed to. We block off streets.
Jason Kelce
Okay?
Kevin Hart
We block all streets. You know, we. We prohibit the highways from being used. A lot of the stuff isn't necessarily legal, but. But we get it done. It is what it is. It's called fanfare. That's what it's called, Rob. And I'll tell you what, we're not discussing fixings. We're not talking about fixings in Philadelphia. It's cheese on the cheese state. That's it.
Jason Kelce
That's all.
Kevin Hart
Give me the pretzel.
Jason Kelce
Oh, my God.
Travis Kelce
Oh, that's good.
Jason Kelce
That makes me so happy.
Rob Riggle
You guys have a prison in your stadium, if I'm not mistaken.
Kevin Hart
Damn right we do.
Jason Kelce
Yeah. Okay, that was the old stadium. That was. That was the Vet. That was the Vet.
Kevin Hart
We progressed.
Jason Kelce
We've moved on from that.
Kevin Hart
We progressed, all right? We had it there because we needed it. During those times, we. We needed it. And as a person that has been in that jail cell, as a person that has been in that jail cell, it is necessary, okay? It's necessary to know the consequences to some of our crazy actions. So when I sat in that cell for three and a half hours, I thought about my actions, and I never did it again. And they took my picture down, so it's a good thing you have not made it as a fan until your picture has made it to the Wall of trouble. When they go, no.
Travis Kelce
Watch out for.
Jason Kelce
This guy right here. Here.
Kevin Hart
The Wall of Trouble. I had an alert.
Rob Riggle
Listen, I do. I do respect that. I. I respect that a lot, actually.
Kevin Hart
I appreciate that, Rob. I'm not playing.
Rob Riggle
I believe you.
Kevin Hart
That's a. I had a real security threat alert.
Rob Riggle
I totally believe it on me from.
Kevin Hart
The year that I tried. From the year that I tried to get on the podium. When I was drunk and tried to get on the podium, they were like, hey, look, guys, Kevin, he's coming to the playoff games. We need a team just to watch Kevin. And they really did have a team on me. Like, I was on the sideline and I. You know, it took me a while to not. I was like, hey, man, why these security guards? It's like five of them, but it's the same faces that keep moving everywhere I go. And one of the security guys told me, he's like, oh, yeah, you got a threat alert on you, just in case.
Travis Kelce
Threat alert.
Kevin Hart
You got eyes on, you got a threat alert. That's when I knew I made it as a fan. Rob, you've never had a threat alert. They've never worried about you and what you going to do. Arrowhead, all they do is go, that's Riggle with that plate of beans and slaw right there.
Rob Riggle
They said they go. They go, is that Riggle? They go, yeah, of course it's Wriggle. He's got all the fixings. And then they even offer me a headset if I want to listen in on the game. Sometimes I'm like, ah, guys, it's too much. That's how friendly we are in Kansas City.
Kevin Hart
I do not think that Arrowhead is a bad place. I will say this is something I should have said earlier. I love the people of Kansas City. I'm a frequent visitor of Kansas City. Perform there tons of amazing shows in personnel. When it comes to the environment of football, all it's all about noise. And I will say, you guys are definitely up there with. With the level of noise that is. That is presented to your. To your opponent. But you got to come from noise. You got to come from noise to respond to that environment. And we're no strangers to it. That's the beauty of how we're trained in Philadelphia.
Travis Kelce
And there's nothing. Fire me up. There's. There's nothing more different than a. Than the noise of the link and the noise of Arrowhead. Like arrowhead. You're screaming. I mean, mean, you're. You feel the rumble? Yeah, you feel the rumble?
Kevin Hart
It.
Travis Kelce
The link. You hear more of what.
Rob Riggle
It's a strategy.
Jason Kelce
It's a. Strategy's not saying anything mean. So it's just. Let's just make as much. Philly's like, hey, we got to keep this noise down because I gotta tell, this.
Rob Riggle
Vibrates.
Kevin Hart
Kevin, your mother. You heard me.
Jason Kelce
You heard me.
Kevin Hart
23. We don't even say your names. We just say your numbers. We're so disrespectful. We don't even say. We don't say your. We don't say your last name. You heard me. 27. Shut up. 27.
Jason Kelce
That used to be. That used to be the funniest thing, sitting on the bench. We'd be out there having a rough series. You go back to the bench, these dudes always yelling behind you, hey, 62, what the are you doing? Oh, you got to save. You got to keep your head forward. Acting like you don't hear it, and you just hear all this out.
Kevin Hart
We do research, too, Philadelphia research. We know what's going on in your family. We know the problems.
Jason Kelce
Yeah, that's right.
Kevin Hart
You don't have a dad. Yeah. Yeah.
Rob Riggle
In all fairness, that's. I think that's most cities these days. Airhead's not above that. I mean, we're not.
Jason Kelce
We're.
Rob Riggle
We're friendly, nice people, and we like to get loud, but we're not above doing our research as well. You know, really, really burrowing down like a tick and getting in there like.
Kevin Hart
Hey, hey, hey, 91.
Travis Kelce
Hey.
Rob Riggle
I understand your nephew's having a little trouble in school.
Jason Kelce
I mean, it goes deep.
Rob Riggle
You know, it's a little.
Kevin Hart
It's a little more. It's a little more precise. It's a little more precise.
Rob Riggle
It's very detailed. It's very detailed.
Kevin Hart
Yeah, Somebody's grade point average just dropped.
Rob Riggle
He's trying to school with that gpa. Yeah, we know he had dreams of.
Jason Kelce
Going to Brown University.
Rob Riggle
He'll be lucky if he gets in Cord now. Then we all start laughing. That's just good old clean Kansas City heckling right there.
Kevin Hart
Two different guys, two different approaches. Two different approaches. Yeah, we. One's a little more flat, flagrant, vicious. The other one's a little more precise. I'll give you Rob. That's pretty funny. Hey, heard you heard your nephew's having a little trouble. Looks like your son's going to repeat the 11th grade.
Jason Kelce
Have you ever been heckled?
Rob Riggle
This this actually happened. This actually happened to me one time. I was, it wasn't at Arrowhead. I was at a, at a Jets Dolphins game. I was sitting on the front row behind the Dolphins bench for some reason, and Joey Porter came off, and all the jets fans around me were screaming at him going, screw you, Porter. You suck. You know, in that classic New York way. I was just sitting there minding my business, and he looked right at me and he goes, not up in here. I looked right back at him. I looked back at him and go, I didn't say it. I didn't say it. Like, I swear. And he was like, no, I'm right here. He was, veins coming up. And finally the guy next to me goes, dude, it's from the, the movie or whatever. Oh, dear God. I thought he wanted to kill me.
Jason Kelce
I thought, rob, I get killed.
Kevin Hart
I get killed. Fans, I, I, I don't mind it. Like, I, I'm no, I am no stranger to the lab. Funny is funny. So, so, like, when you, when you say to me, if it's funny, it's funny. And like, yeah, here's what I did stop doing, though. So I would come down to the field, you know, while the players are warming up. Let's say it's an away game. Eagles are playing away. I'm in the city, I'm a go, but I'm on the field. Where the fans would kill me is when you actually see how small I am compared to, like, the, the players, when they come out and they warming up, you would hear, kevin, you look like his dick. Hey. Hey, man, come on.
Rob Riggle
Hey. Hey.
Kevin Hart
Hey, man. Seriously, my son is with me.
Jason Kelce
That's my son.
Kevin Hart
That's my son. Get your stupid ass off the field, Kevin. Get your dumb ass off. I mean, they, they let me have it. Like, I put my kids in the headphones.
Rob Riggle
I, I gotta share this with you too. I got, I got heckled at the Ryder cup, and, and Travis, you, you've, you've met Kasha, my girlfriend.
Travis Kelce
Oh, yeah.
Rob Riggle
She's a professional golfer. But we were at the Ryder cup and the, the hush comes over the crowd. So now it's extra quiet it. And I'm standing there with my girlfriend, and somebody from the back screams, she's out of your league. R. To the, to the tremendous roar from the crowd of.
Kevin Hart
Yeah, you turned into a dog pile.
Rob Riggle
Then it was like, it got to a fever pitch. People like, kill him.
Jason Kelce
Kill that piece of.
Rob Riggle
I was like, hold on.
Jason Kelce
What just happened?
Travis Kelce
God damn it.
Rob Riggle
I mean, where does this stuff Come from.
Kevin Hart
Some of it's unprovoked when you really do turn around.
Jason Kelce
Why.
Kevin Hart
Why. Why did you say that?
Jason Kelce
Sir?
Rob Riggle
I just.
Kevin Hart
What the was that, sir? Why did you feel that's what you should have said to me, sir? No, I. I think it's all. It's all fun. It's all fair within the love of the game. I do want to credit my city man for. For keeping it in the stands. You know, we're seeing a lot of crazy activity. We're seeing fans get crazy. We just saw somebody push Lamar the other day. So I just want to say real quick to the city, Philadelphia, let's keep it in the stands. Let's keep it vocal, let's keep it verbal, and let's stand on business the way we normally do. But let's make sure that we still respect the athlete. Let's still respect the profession. Okay, I can protect us otherwise. I can protect the city and make sure that our talk stands tall, but we're keeping it in the stands. I' say that that's what we're doing there.
Rob Riggle
I like that.
Travis Kelce
I like it.
Kevin Hart
Yes.
Travis Kelce
I respect it.
Jason Kelce
Let's get back to the game a little bit. All right. So, as players, we usually don't consider these matchups the next season. We don't consider it like a Super bowl rematch these times. You just played.
Kevin Hart
No, we don't. You, me, and Trans.
Jason Kelce
As fans, though.
Rob Riggle
It is.
Jason Kelce
As fans. Do you guys consider this a Super bowl rematch?
Kevin Hart
Well, I think. I think. Rob, I'll answer first, because I think as a player, it's good. It's good. Good to respect both POVs. Right. Like, I think I have. I have the advantage of looking through a dual lens. I can see from both sides.
Jason Kelce
Not at all.
Kevin Hart
You know, you have to respect it as a Super bowl rematch. I mean, I remember when I played in the church league, and we won. We won the conference, and the following year we came out and game two was against the church that we played in the. In the championship game. And that was the biggest game.
Jason Kelce
Literally.
Travis Kelce
Same scenario.
Kevin Hart
Same scenario, right? Yeah, the same thing. Same thing.
Rob Riggle
So I don't know if that's the same. I don't know if that's actually.
Kevin Hart
Definitely is. Pastor. Pastor Troy led that league with. With 17 touchdowns that year. And. And I. I remember it's definitely the same. Pastor Troy for sure could have went. He could have went. So I think. I think it is. It is a rematch. You got to respect it as that. We're stepping.
Rob Riggle
Kevin, I haven't played a Rec league, which is, as we know, is very similar to the NFL, unlike church leagues. But I don't want to go there because I don't want to make it about me. Today the question was about the teams. Do I consider this a rematch? I will say no. I will say yes, there are similarities, but each year you have a brand new team and yes, there are a lot of veterans that come along and get to, you know, continue their journey. But every. It's like a new. It's like a fingerprint. It's new every year. It's at least that's how I do it. What's up? Anyway, but that's. That it's a new team. It's a. It's a new season. So to me, it's all born and new. However do my feelings. Are they running hot? You're God dang right they are. Do I want a piece of the Eagles? I want a big piece. I want a big piece of the Eagles. That barbecue is going to be Eagle, okay?
Travis Kelce
American bald eagle.
Jason Kelce
Just.
Rob Riggle
Whatever.
Jason Kelce
Eagle, okay?
Rob Riggle
That's what's up. And we're gonna have a lot of fixings with that eagle.
Kevin Hart
It's a big game. It sets, it sets a tone. I think. I think this game definitely sends a message, right? I think we go in there, we handle business. You know, it sets. It sends a message. I think, you know, the, the.
Jason Kelce
The.
Kevin Hart
The heads underneath those helmets of the Kansas City Chiefs will be left with a lot to think about, right? It's like, holy shit, where are we? Who are we and what. What are we? Right? Like, you know, the Eagles are clearly trying to send a message, guys, and we clearly allowed that message to get delivered. Like, like that's psyche. We're playing the psyche game at that point.
Jason Kelce
Psyche game.
Kevin Hart
It's. Which is a big part of football, as you guys know.
Rob Riggle
But I've seen the. I've seen the Kansas City Chiefs team leaders. They never panic. The leaders of that team don't panic. I honestly, whatever. Whatever is thrown at us. I'm not sweating jack squat because I know come November, December, we're going to start D. We're going to start fine tuning. It's going to be tune in Tokyo. And don't tell me you haven't played that. It's going to be tune in Tokyo and we are going to be going for the gold. All right? I don't sweat the early days, friend.
Kevin Hart
Respectfully, wriggle. You're starting to piss me off. You're starting to piss me off. Well, you just said first you said fixings, and then you said jack squat. I'm gonna be honest with you. I don't know. I don't know who you're hanging around and where you're getting this swing from, but it has to stop today, okay? Has to stop today. Don't you ever say jack squat to me. All right, when we're, when we're trash talking, how. How do I follow that? What do I come back at when you say jack squat? I don't know. To say that.
Travis Kelce
Brilliant.
Rob Riggle
I'm sorry, it's just, it's. You're right, it is. It's old school Midwestern trash talk. That's probably.
Jason Kelce
It's.
Rob Riggle
It's like old English.
Travis Kelce
It's just good fair game.
Rob Riggle
It could throw people for a loop.
Kevin Hart
Travis, can I ask you a, a, a football related question? Just, you know, just football energy. Player to player.
Rob Riggle
You can tell this isn't real already.
Kevin Hart
Well, what do you mean you can tell this? I mean, it's clearly real. I just said player to player, which means I'm coming in hot. You know, knowing, knowing how stacked the Eagles are, knowing how talented our team is right now, I would love to know what the conversations are internally in your locker room about our team, about where we stand. Is there a little bit of like, bitter bitterness in, in the mouth of the Kansas City Chiefs because of the loss and, and how big loss that super bowl was? Because it wasn't just a loss. It was like, what do they call it?
Jason Kelce
And I see what you're doing.
Kevin Hart
Is it called a blowout? Right? All right, so. So when that happens, when that happens and you guys are like, wow, on that stage, on that stage with all those lights, that's the performance that we gave on the biggest night of football in front of the, the most people that will ever watch a game. We didn't show up at all. We didn't even, we didn't even like lace up correctly. So now knowing that, knowing that, that, that happened, how do you guys, how do you guys step in that field? And, and, and what do you think about the team?
Travis Kelce
The biggest thing is that it, it was, it was a lot of self inflicted stuff. I think I give the respect to the Eagles for the way they played that game. They were ready, they were prepared, they came out hot and they made plays. The biggest thing for me is that what can I control? I can control. We got in house, I think we got great players too. I think we have some of the best in the world. I think we have the best quarterback in the world. I think we have the best coach in the world.
Kevin Hart
Travis. Can you stop yelling at me? Can you stop yelling?
Travis Kelce
I'm sorry.
Rob Riggle
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
Travis Kelce
I got a little closer to the mic.
Jason Kelce
I wanted you to hear me.
Travis Kelce
I wanted you to hear me.
Kevin Hart
Go ahead.
Travis Kelce
I'm sorry. And I think that what I can control in house is that. That I can get fired up and fix my mistakes and make sure that my team and my guys are ready to play and myself is ready to play. And that. And the biggest thing from last week is that we have to improve on what this team is this year. And I'm not thinking about last year. I'm thinking about who we are as a team this year and how we can improve from week one and don't put ourselves in a. In a. In the lost column again.
Kevin Hart

Travis Kelce

Kevin Hart
At any point.
Travis Kelce

Podcast: New Heights with Jason & Travis Kelce
Date: September 10, 2025
Guests: Kevin Hart, Rob Riggle
Main Theme:
A jam-packed, hilarious, and insightful Week 1 NFL recap and Week 2 preview featuring celebrity super-fans Kevin Hart and Rob Riggle ahead of the Chiefs-Eagles Super Bowl rematch. Jason and Travis Kelce bring brotherly banter, insider football talk, and a deep-dive on stadium cultures, with memorable stories and trademark trash talk from two of the league’s most passionate fanbases.
Football is back! Jason and Travis kick off the 2025 NFL season by recapping critical moments from Week 1, relive the Chiefs’ tough debut in Brazil (“Chiefs Brazilian Bummer”), and break down the Eagles’ win against the Cowboys (and the “Spitgate” controversy). The episode’s highlight is a riotous Chiefs vs. Eagles preview with comedic heavyweights and super-fans Rob Riggle and Kevin Hart, who bring the heat on tailgating, trash talk, heckling, and what makes their team's home field a true fortress.
“There’s no excuse for me running into my own guys like that… I owe my guy big time.” – Travis Kelce (10:45)
“The chance that that thing gets done without a hitch is very low. So, yeah, shout out to the Chiefs.” – Jason Kelce (16:03)
Eagles 24, Cowboys 20
Banner Night & Early Chaos:
Despite the celebratory atmosphere, the game erupts with Jalen Carter ejected moments after kickoff for spitting on Dak Prescott (“Spitgate”).
“He broke an NFL record for the fastest ejection in NFL season history. Eagles pretty good at getting ejected early.” – Jason Kelce (20:32)
“Don’t let this dumb behavior jeopardize the career and legacy you can build, especially in this city.” – Jason Kelce (22:15)
“You just got to be able to keep your composure, understand that this team needs you.” – Travis Kelce (22:28)
“The name of the stadium should be something that honors the city...the citizens’ history.” – Jason Kelce (07:12)
“Arrowhead, you feel the rumble...at The Linc, you hear what your heart is.” – Travis Kelce (00:00–00:08, 66:55–67:10)
(34:29–46:53)
“Our kicker is a serial killer. He’s got a low pulse rate. He can’t wait to deliver.” – Mike Tomlin (46:10)
(52:00–82:47)
“Spoken like a true loser…I heard everything but accountability.” – Kevin Hart to Rob Riggle (55:14)
“The Chiefs will win because we are awesome and we don’t want to be 0–2.” (81:08)
“The Eagles will win because winning is an attitude, a feeling, our now... It’s our destiny, our livelihood, it’s what we’re supposed to do. Fly Eagles fly!” (81:41)
