Yes.

[Jason Kelce]

Get on the field. Get off the field. Gosh, guys.

[Travis Kelce]

Killing it. Yeah, we're.

[Jason Kelce]

We're together in Kansas City.

[Travis Kelce]

How about that?

[Jason Kelce]

That's right.

[Travis Kelce]

And. Yeah. Jason's. You look good, bud. You look good. Love that shirt. Just talking about the all white was a heavy choice. What?

[Travis Kelce]

[Jason Kelce]

Nice.

[Travis Kelce]

Jason, why don't you actually tell people what we're going to talk about in the episode?

[Jason Kelce]

Sure. Well, we got an outstanding episode lined up for you guys. We're going to talk about Trav's big win with the Chiefs over the Saints, as well as me getting out of the house and where we are currently being in Kansas City. Kansas City. Little car jam, little tailgating. We got a bunch of good stuff. As well as obviously getting to everything else that happened in Week 5 in the NFL. But first, as always, as always, new.

[Travis Kelce]

New news coming in hot. A little new news brought to you by Meta Quest. That's right, expand your world. Mama Kelse is woman of the year or one of the women of the year.

[Jason Kelce]

Nice. Way to go.

[Travis Kelce]

First item. In new news, our mom was named one of Glamour magazine's 2024 Women of the year. Also on the COVID Beyonce's mom, Selena Gomez's mother, and Billie Eilish's mom. So that's.

[Jason Kelce]

She's in good company.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah, I don't. Yeah, it's impressive. It's impressive that Mama Kel has made it to the top. I mean, those. Those are top tier moms right there. She's. She described what it was like being our mom in. In quotes. Being a mom is probably the hardest thing I've ever done in my life. It's so much easier to just go to work. But raising children when they're totally dependent on you and you're trying to do the best you can with the limited resources you have, it's the most daunting t. I've ever had to do. And, mom, you made it look easy. I'm not going to lie. You made it look easy. If it was that hard for you, I'm sorry if we made it harder on you, because I'm sure Jason did. I know I didn't I made you. I made it easy.

[Jason Kelce]

I thought growing up was pretty easy. You show up, lunch is packed, breakfast is made.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah, sure.

[Jason Kelce]

Three rides everywhere is best.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah, Mom.

[Jason Kelce]

And what does mom know?

[Travis Kelce]

Caravans, like. You kidding me? It doesn't get any better than that. Happy as hell for you, mama. Glamour magazine. This is cool. This is cool. And you looked absolutely amazing, Mom. This is so good. Shout out to all the other mothers that are women of the year.

[Jason Kelce]

We also got a update on our film club poll. We wanted to give you guys results of the online poll that was very much rigged from the beginning by our friends. It's Jake. The winner, by a huge margin, of course, is Sisterhood for the Traveling Pan of the Traveling Pants. Whatever.

[Travis Kelce]

Don't say it right, Jason.

[Jason Kelce]

Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants.

[Travis Kelce]

Thank you.

[Jason Kelce]

We will now watch this movie and you guys will get a review. If you pay for the added 1.3plus feature, which also includes no ads and a bunch of other benefits, you will also hear, like, Jason, the agonizing review.

[Travis Kelce]

Exactly.

[Jason Kelce]

Of a movie.

[Travis Kelce]

Agonizing.

[Jason Kelce]

Of a movie about pants.

[Travis Kelce]

Dude, you are going to love movie.

[Jason Kelce]

Two of my least favorite things.

[Travis Kelce]

Why do you ha this?

[Jason Kelce]

I mean, I got a bunch of daughters. I don't. I guess I'm warming up the sisterhood.

[Travis Kelce]

There you go. There you go. Way to bring it full circle.

[Jason Kelce]

All I know is this. Is this. This whole thing. Jake threw a bunch of other movies that he knew would take votes from each other so that the Swifties could just freaking dominate the poll with such a. Trevor. Like Spaceballs, Goonies, and Necessary Roughness all took each other's votes. I hope you're happy, Jake.

[Travis Kelce]

I'm excited to watch. I think we were. We planned on watching this together.

[Jason Kelce]

You're. You're honestly excited to watch this movie?

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah. What.

[Jason Kelce]

What in the title makes you excited to watch this movie, Jason?

[Travis Kelce]

I don't. I don't let the title dictate what gets me excited.

[Jason Kelce]

I read books all the time by their title, and if it's a bad title, I don't read the book.

[Travis Kelce]

Well, take it from a guy that doesn't read books. Don't read into the title.

[Jason Kelce]

Don't read. Just don't read the books. Yeah, I don't even read the title. Do you know anything about this movie? What is this movie about?

[Travis Kelce]

I don't know. It has Blake Lively in it, and she's.

[Jason Kelce]

I know. Listen, I love Blake.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah. I like watching films with people that I've met and I know. Oh, I watched. I watched Hugh Grant and. Oh, what's Julia Roberts? Nottingham Hill. What is it? Notting Hill. I watched that one. I enjoyed it.

[Jason Kelce]

Did you?

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

What's it about?

[Travis Kelce]

It's about. Ah, see, this is why I'm not a good movie. It's about. It's about two people that fall in love. Now wait, hold on.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah, I could have told you that.

[Travis Kelce]

It's about two people that fall in love. Julia Roberts is a. Is a celebrity and what do you call it? Hugh Grant does not know this.

[Jason Kelce]

It's about two popular famous people that fall in love. Sounds great.

[Travis Kelce]

No, one popular, one unpopular.

[Jason Kelce]

Who's the unpopular one? Hugh?

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

I don't know. That's realistic.

[Travis Kelce]

I know, right?

[Jason Kelce]

That's a good looking man.

[Jason Kelce]

Sure. Yeah. Travis got a major compliment from the Fonz, AKA Coach Klein from the Water Boy. Mythical as you might know him, the legendary actor Henry Winkler. On X, Twitter, whatever you prefer to call it these days, he, quote, tweeted a tweet from Kansas City. Kansas City. Kansas City, Kansas Chiefs. No better day to pull out some of Travis Kelce's greatest hits. And Mr. Wrinkler said, and Mr. K is doing an amazing job as an actor on Grotesquerie on Fox. Did Fox pay him for this?

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah, no. Henry's son, Max. Max Winkler is actually a director on the show. Oh. Yeah. So he's a big fan of the show. Big fan of the Chiefs as well. Shout out to the fs.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah.

[Travis Kelce]

You know, we love you over there in Chief's kingdom, and it's pretty cool, man. Well, I remember watching Happy Days growing up, and it's just, you know, one of those life comes full circle moments.

[Jason Kelce]

Can you give us any? So we're four episodes in?

[Travis Kelce]

Yes.

[Jason Kelce]

How many episodes?

[Travis Kelce]

And you watched all four?

[Jason Kelce]

I've watched all four.

[Travis Kelce]

I can't believe you're actually. So you like or like, Listen, thrillers.

[Jason Kelce]

If you put Grotesque Re, or Sister of the Traveling Pants up, I'm watching Grotesque. What? There's four of us. How many episodes is there?

[Travis Kelce]

It's a great question.

[Jason Kelce]

Cool. Brandon figured that out. What kind of turns are we in store for? How many shoes are gonna drop?

[Travis Kelce]

I'm not gonna give away anything.

[Jason Kelce]

We'll just say, how many shoes are gonna drop? There's. There's definitely something happening.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah, there's about to be even more happening.

[Jason Kelce]

There is so much.

[Travis Kelce]

Just when you think like, all right, everything's gonna start to unfold. You're in. Just buckle up.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah.

[Travis Kelce]

Buckle up. Yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah. I feel like I already got it figured out.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah, I know. You do?

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah.

[Travis Kelce]

We talked about this earlier. You don't have it.

[Jason Kelce]

I can't. I can't tell if you are just a complete made up figment of Niecy's or Lois's imagination.

[Travis Kelce]

Okay.

[Jason Kelce]

If you're a demon or an angel, I'll accept both of those because they're dichotomies or if you're the killer. I'm pretty sure you're not the killer. Unless you're possessing people. I saw you on the second. You said you didn't premiere to the third episode. I saw you in the second episode.

[Travis Kelce]

What?

[Jason Kelce]

Oh, you know, somebody did a great job of grabbing the screenshot, and I. I know that tall, shadowy Figure like the back of my head.

[Travis Kelce]

No, No. I don't know if that one.

[Jason Kelce]

I don't know. You turn the turntable off.

[Travis Kelce]

I've seen it just creeping around in the background. Yeah, yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

Lurching.

[Travis Kelce]

No, I wish I was that sneaky.

[Jason Kelce]

Well, I can tell you one person you're not a better actor than, and that is Niecy Nash. She is killing it.

[Travis Kelce]

Absolutely.

[Jason Kelce]

It has been awesome to watch, and I can't wait to see the new epis. Was. Is it two every week? It was two the first two weeks. You gotta stop asking me. All right, cool. Max. Max Winkler, please respond to this.

[Travis Kelce]

She should have stopped asking me this stuff. I'm. I'm honestly, though, I'm along the ride with. With everyone else.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah.

[Travis Kelce]

I'm enjoying watching everything unfold because I really. I. I was so in and out of LA at the, like, over the off season filming this, that I. I didn't see any other, like, scenes or anything like that. So it's fun to, I don't know, kind of get caught up on a lot of the storyline or just not necessarily storyline, but just everybody's performance, how they're, like, how they're portraying people. And I think it's just cool. It's cool to be a part of it and, like, still see, like.

[Jason Kelce]

It's interesting to see the finished product.

[Travis Kelce]

Yes.

[Jason Kelce]

Because you see all the takes when you're doing it and, like, all this stuff, and then all of a sudden it's like, oh, that's what they were going for.

[Travis Kelce]

Yes.

[Jason Kelce]

They cut out all the other stuff less than me. Got it. Perfect. Oh, they didn't like that. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. I didn't do that.

[Travis Kelce]

I. I knew. I knew when I got there, like, a few takes, I was like, yeah, they didn't like that. And those takes definitely didn't make it, so. But at least I felt it, and I knew not to do it again.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah. Learning moment coaching.

[Travis Kelce]

I am coachable, I'll tell you that.

[Jason Kelce]

Do we think Fon saw the scene of you talking about Big Peter and his banana hammock?

[Travis Kelce]

Banana splitter.

[Jason Kelce]

Banana splitter.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah. Listen, man, everybody's got a pass. Jason.

[Jason Kelce]

Hey, they do.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah, it sounds like it sounds like it made me better.

[Jason Kelce]

You know what it sounds like?

[Travis Kelce]

What?

[Jason Kelce]

It sounds like Lois wants to remember Big Peter because Big Peter. That's right.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah. When I was reading that on the script.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah.

[Travis Kelce]

I was just like, this is going to somehow.

[Jason Kelce]

Cool, cool, cool. Yeah. I'll make this sound great. Big Peter and his banana splitter.

[Travis Kelce]

If I was a stripper, how would I make this sound?

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah. All right. All right. Let's get to some out of the house. That's right. But before we get into Travis's game, we're going to talk about out of the house in Kansas City. Out of the House is brought to you by Coke Zero Sugar. Tackle game day with irresistible taste of Coke Zero sugar. It's the best coke ever.

[Travis Kelce]

Try and decide. Jason, how was your first Kelsey car jam?

[Jason Kelce]

It's great. I saw a bunch of really cool cars.

[Travis Kelce]

Nice.

[Jason Kelce]

I'm not. I'm. You know me. I'm terrible with, like, makes and models of cars. Yeah. But I know when I see a car if I like it.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

And there is a lot of cool cars there.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah. And I like old cars.

[Travis Kelce]

There was. There were. There were, like, two that stood out to me. There was a. There was a really old, like, resto mode Bronco.

[Jason Kelce]

Nice.

[Travis Kelce]

That looked sweet.

[Jason Kelce]

Go wrong with a Bronco.

[Travis Kelce]

And it was like, would you say.

[Jason Kelce]

What kind of bronco?

[Travis Kelce]

Resto Mo. So it was like. I think that's what it's called. Restomod. Resto mode, something like that. I don't know the pronunciation.

[Jason Kelce]

Is that just like a fancy word for restoration?

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah, I think.

[Jason Kelce]

What's a. So Resto restoration.

[Travis Kelce]

It's basically a old. It's like the. It's like the original look of the Bronco with all exterior is the original. It's just like the frame and everything's brand new on it.

[Jason Kelce]

Okay. It's custom, so they've restored it. But it's all original look and feel and everything. Got it. Okay. That's cool.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah. That thing was awesome. And then the. The monster truck. Dude, I love monster trucks, man.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah. I want to get in one so bad. You want to Ace Ventura?

[Travis Kelce]

I just want to.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah. My favorite was the international harvester pickup truck that was out there. It was like a. It's like a metallic grayish blue. I got in it. There's a picture of me out there sitting in it.

[Travis Kelce]

Nice.

[Jason Kelce]

It was awesome.

[Travis Kelce]

Excited for the ignition lab to get the. Their Bronco up and running. It looks absolutely awesome. Are they working on the matte silver look right now? Yeah, it was sweet. They showed, like, how far along they were with it, and then on top of that, they. They're auctioning off the 1969 Chevelle that they turned into an electric car to put a Tesla engine under it. And when I say they. These high school kids at the ignition lab.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah. Why don't you Explain what the Ignition lab is for people that don't.

[Travis Kelce]

So the ignition lab is. It's an extension of what Operation Breakthrough has been doing with their STEM labs in the building. And STEM is science, technology, engineering, math. And they have just a bunch of like, I don't know, rooms of like the mechanics. The. It has a entertainment studio. It has, it has a whole bunch of stuff that these kids can get their hands on and get into. And it's just an expertise and yeah, it gets just everything and it's, it's just, it's giving these kids something that they wouldn't have otherwise and giving kids something to do outside of school and after school and something they can grab, gravitate towards and see if they enjoy. One of them is the mechanic Mechanic shop like I just mentioned. And they actually turned a 69 Chevelle into an electric car by, by doing the welding and the, all the, I don't know, the battery, the Tesla battery pack that's on the bottom of it or in the, in the front, the back trunk. It's pretty cool.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah, they got my Chevy Silverado. They're converting to electric right now.

[Travis Kelce]

Nice, dude.

[Jason Kelce]

And it's a 1986 square body Chevy. And I still haven't been. I need to make it to Operation Breakthrough in the Ignition lab and all that. But yeah, I'm fired up to see what it's like and they said they're going to try and teach me to weld, which I think is also sounds pretty good.

[Travis Kelce]

It's pretty sweet. Yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

If it's anything like soldering, I'm going to be fucking terrible at it.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah, I wouldn't know.

[Jason Kelce]

I mean, it's definitely not like soldering, but it's kind of like, I don't know. We don't know what the we're talking about.

[Travis Kelce]

No idea.

[Jason Kelce]

Well, that's why you go to places that do and you get to learn.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

Shout out to Operation Breakthrough. Shout out to Kelsey. Car Jam was an awesome event. Shout out to everyone that showed up. It was really awesome to see the community support everybody there. Obviously it goes towards a good cause.

[Travis Kelce]

Kansas City always shows up, baby. That's why I love it here, man. Whether it's foundation events, whether it's, you know, celebrating somebody or just, you know, good old Chiefs game, baby. They're. They're showing up no matter what, man. That's why we love them. Tailgate with Chiefs Kingdom.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah.

[Travis Kelce]

Moving on to game day. ESPN send you out into the kingdom. Yeah, that's right. You were, you were Tailgating a little bit out there in the parking lot.

[Jason Kelce]

I was. Yeah.

[Travis Kelce]

What was it like? What was it like tailgating at Arrowhead? I've only tailgated at. At Eagles games.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah. And I've only been to one tailgate. I have been to a tailgate before, a chief's kingdom for a playoff game years ago. But I didn't really venture around. I was kind of just in one spot, and it was like a. It was like a Budweiser tent that was there or whatever, and I just stayed there. And then every other time I go to your games, you have the. The bus that takes everybody there. So I just go with that. So I really haven't tailgate a lot.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

So I thought it'd be cool to go experience it. And I was only able to be out there for, like, 40 minutes, maybe. Like, it was quick.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

But they were running me around the golf cart. I was meeting all sorts of people. It was awesome. It was great. Good food, good people.

[Travis Kelce]

I love it.

[Jason Kelce]

Everybody just looking to have a good time, getting fired up for the game.

[Travis Kelce]

Come on now, baby. That's Kansas City.

[Jason Kelce]

I asked everybody, like, why they do it, and they're like, hey, these, this, these. Everybody around here is, like, family now. Like, they. They've been going to it for years. Season ticket holders, mostly. There was more New Orleans food than there was Kansas City food. I had so much like gumbo, jambalaya.

[Travis Kelce]

I didn't see any, like, barbecue or anything.

[Jason Kelce]

I mean, there was. It was around. But most of the stuff that everybody was eating where I was at. I think that it's common for, I guess, the teams to make, like, the food that they're playing.

[Travis Kelce]

Kind of like a fun. There's also hot luck deal that they got going on.

[Jason Kelce]

Yes. There's also a decent amount of New Orleans fans in the tailgate. They showed up.

[Travis Kelce]

All right, so it's fun.

[Jason Kelce]

I always like it. That's the beautiful thing about sports. It's a unifying thing. Everybody comes together, and you try and kill each other, but then your friends afterwards.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah. Best doesn't always work out like that, but. Yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

Learned how to suction cup a beer can to my palm.

[Travis Kelce]

Sorry, what?

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah, the tailgate was incredible. Had an Abner Haynes jersey on. Nobody asked me a single thing about Abner Haynes.

[Travis Kelce]

Tell everybody about the Abner Haynes. Because I was.

[Jason Kelce]

So. Yeah.

[Travis Kelce]

You asked me to try and help you out with this, and I was like, yeah, perfect. No, no problem.

[Jason Kelce]

And it was pro shop. Hooked it up for sure. So this off season Shout out to.

[Travis Kelce]

The Casey pro Shop for getting the.

[Jason Kelce]

Turnaround for us this off season. Abnehes died.

[Travis Kelce]

Oh, all right.

[Jason Kelce]

Yes. Rip. He is in the Chiefs Ring of Honor or hall of Fame.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

And I saw. I didn't know, really, whoever Ames was. And then obviously you see that he passes away, so you start clicking articles and. Dude was just awesome. It's a great running back. Played for the Dallas Texans and the Kansas City Chiefs. But more important than that, it felt like he was, like, really a member of the community. Went to North Texas State, I believe.

[Travis Kelce]

North Texas State, which, you know, you're.

[Jason Kelce]

Good if you're going to North Texas State and then going to the afl. Yeah.

[Travis Kelce]

Afl. Nice.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah. Lived a good life of being a great football player and a promising, like, just awesome member of the community. So I thought it'd be cool to pay honor to the great Abner Haynes.

[Travis Kelce]

I love it, man.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah.

[Travis Kelce]

Kansas City's got a bunch of them.

[Jason Kelce]

They do.

[Travis Kelce]

They do.

[Jason Kelce]

It's a story to franchise. Who's Bobby Bell?

[Travis Kelce]

That's a great name, Bobby Bell. Defensive end, I believe. Linebacker, maybe? No, Willie Lanier was definitely the linebacker.

[Jason Kelce]

Willie Lanier.

[Travis Kelce]

Yep. He was. He was a big time. He was always. What is it? Walter Payton man of the Year. He's got a. He got a lot of honors for being, like, awesome in the community, which it wasn't Walter Payton man of the Year back then.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah. But it's the equivalent now.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah, yeah, he's.

[Jason Kelce]

They really don't have an equivalent now. But, yeah.

[Travis Kelce]

Met Willie. No. Bobby. Everybody that, like, the Chiefs ambassadors are the best. Even when Len was alive. RIP. Len Dawson, when he was. When he was in the building, he was actually one of the first guys I met. And there's just. There's. I mean, the list goes on of ambassadors in Chief's kingdom that kind of stick around and, you know, past that legacy, man.

[Jason Kelce]

The best thing I ate at the tailgate probably was the cheddar brat, because I wasn't ready for the cheddar. And the moment I bit into it, there was cheddar in it. And it was just a magical moment.

[Travis Kelce]

You know, I'm out on that cheddar.

[Jason Kelce]

You're out on a cheddar brat?

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

What on earth are you out on a cheddar brat for?

[Travis Kelce]

I just. Anything in, like, a casing like that, I'm out. I just don't.

[Jason Kelce]

That's right. You don't like cylindrical meats. We've been over this. They make sausage without, like, the casing around it.

[Travis Kelce]

No, no, they don't.

[Jason Kelce]

I guarantee they do.

[Travis Kelce]

No. Oh, you saw my, like, tacos. Taco meat. That's not sausage. All right, well, I'm glad you enjoyed your jambalaya in Kansas City.

[Jason Kelce]

Also. It's a pasta lie. You ever had that?

[Travis Kelce]

No, I'm not. I'm also not a Creole, like, New Orleans style.

[Jason Kelce]

Food missing out.

[Travis Kelce]

I hear this all the time, and every time I try it, I'm just, like, still not feeling it every time. Well, I think it's just a mental block.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah. Or you just don't like it. Is it the spice? Like, what do you not like about it?

[Travis Kelce]

Jambalaya. I just. There's something about just, like, water and rice. I just. I don't. I don't think it's like a soupy rice. Soupy rice. I just. And then it's like.

[Jason Kelce]

Do you like.

[Travis Kelce]

It's like curry. It's like pooey.

[Jason Kelce]

Pooey.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

He's a mine color.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

You're still judging foods by their color?

[Travis Kelce]

It's not even judging it. It's just like. It's like a mental block. Like. Oh, it. That's.

[Jason Kelce]

That's poop.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

Do you like curry? Do you just. Do you just.

[Travis Kelce]

Dude, you know, I'm. You know, I'm starting to open up to.

[Jason Kelce]

I know.

[Travis Kelce]

To the girl.

[Jason Kelce]

Tay's getting you opened up.

[Travis Kelce]

She is.

[Jason Kelce]

She's introducing new foods to you. And this has been one of the greatest things that I've been happy about.

[Travis Kelce]

And the Israeli spot in Philadelphia, Zahav.

[Jason Kelce]

Yep. Shout out to Michael Solomonov.

[Travis Kelce]

That was awesome. Yeah, I like that spot a lot.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah.

[Travis Kelce]

I mean, I'm still picky when it comes to, like, what. I'll eat on it, but.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah.

[Travis Kelce]

Or eat on the table, but at the same time, it's like, I'm so.

[Jason Kelce]

Are you in or out? I'm down.

[Travis Kelce]

Dance. I'll dance.

[Jason Kelce]

Are you in or out on curry?

[Travis Kelce]

I'm in on, like, a light curry. The more. Yeah, the more it's like it gets thicker and it looks like. Like a baby food or like baby. Then I'm out.

[Jason Kelce]

So you just have a metal block with foods that look like poop.

[Travis Kelce]

Food that looks like it just came out of a butthole. Yes, I do. I have a metal block for that. Yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

Big Skyline Chili fan, yo.

[Travis Kelce]

You know, I'm. I'm so in. Just throw cheese on it. I'll be all right.

[Jason Kelce]

Just won't even notice.

[Travis Kelce]

Won't even know. Come out the same way you went in. Sorry, guys.

[Jason Kelce]

Well, I don't know what else to add there.

[Travis Kelce]

What's better, tailgating at the Link or tailgating at Arrowhead? Don't be biased.

[Jason Kelce]

I don't. I haven't really. I mean, I did some. I did do a little bit of tailgating at the Link, but it wasn't the tailgate I went to at the Link had an alligator, which I don't think is regional to the Philadelphia area. So I'm not sure why there was an alligator. I mean, they were both great. I think. Honestly, I don't think I got a. Because of this short time period and we were moving because I had to get on Monday Night Countdown. I think I'd probably want to get back to Kansas City to do, like, a fuller tailgate. And the only one I've been to with the Eagles tailgated was when I was doing my Countdown as well.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

So, like, I've just been. Because I have to work later. I haven't been able to drink and fully experience the tailgates the way I probably normally would. Yeah, they've been great. And the people there, Top notch at both establishments. Almost blew out my man Dumpy's acl Shout out to Duffy. He's all right.

[Travis Kelce]

That's a big dude.

[Jason Kelce]

3 point stance, chest bump.

[Travis Kelce]

You forced him into doing that, too. He didn't want.

[Jason Kelce]

He asked me before we went up there to do it.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah. Then he was like, n. This isn't a good idea. Like, we're doing it.

[Jason Kelce]

Well, once you get on the ride, you can't get off.

[Travis Kelce]

Such a banger. Yeah. All right. Little Monday Night Countdown. Well, you didn't sign any babies, but you did sign a leg during a commercial break.

[Jason Kelce]

I did. Prosthetic leg.

[Travis Kelce]

That's. That was pretty cool. Did you. Was that the guy wearing the 62 jersey?

[Jason Kelce]

No, there was a woman.

[Travis Kelce]

Oh, okay. Nice. A fan in the crowd sent their prosthetic leg down to have you.

[Jason Kelce]

And I know it was a woman because as I was signing, I looked up and she had her leg up in the air and there was nothing.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah, that's chining down. Usually you could tell that. That.

[Jason Kelce]

And I was like, oh, that's her leg.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah. It's a dead giveaway. Not my first leg I've signed.

[Travis Kelce]

Oh, who's.

[Jason Kelce]

I think I signed a vets league. That was an Eagles fan at some event that I've been to. But this is the first Monday Night Football Countdown league that has been signed.

[Travis Kelce]

Very cool.

[Jason Kelce]

Me, Ryan Swaggy and Scott Van Pelt all signed It. So I hope you're happy with those signatures. Yeah, I mean, she threw her leg up, so it's get what you get.

[Travis Kelce]

At that point, 100%.

[Jason Kelce]

I guess. What's nice about the prosthetic, I suppose, like some people get tattoos now. You can just, hey, just get another prosthetic.

[Travis Kelce]

I don't think.

[Jason Kelce]

It's just they're probably pretty expensive.

[Travis Kelce]

And that does it for out of the house. Brought to you by Coke Zero Sugar.

[Jason Kelce]

Hey, some people just know they could save hundreds on car insurance by checking Allstate first.

[Travis Kelce]

Just like, you know, to check if you packed your headphones before you get on the bus or plane to go to an away game.

[Jason Kelce]

Or like, you know, to check if you put gas in the car before you head out on a family road trip with three kids and two hours. I've done that before.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah, check you first is smart. So check all state first for quote. That could save you hundreds. You're in good hands with Allstate Savings.

[Jason Kelce]

Vary terms apply. All state Fire and Casualty Insurance company and affiliates, Northbrook, Illinois.

[Travis Kelce]

All right, now it's time to talk about our partner, American express. As the 92 percenters know very well, Jason and I do a lot of traveling. In season for games and in the off season for fun at events like golf tournaments, horse racing, and tennis matches.

[Jason Kelce]

We do. We do.

[Travis Kelce]

That's right, Traveling.

[Jason Kelce]

We've been getting out of the house more than ever. And now that I'm visiting a new city every week this season, I've learned firsthand that traveling is better with American Express.

[Travis Kelce]

Whether you're traveling for work or for a much needed vacation, you can get complimentary breakfast for two and guaranteed 4pm checkout at fine hotels and resorts when you book through AMEX Travel using your platinum card.

[Jason Kelce]

Plus you can get access to the Centurion Lounge. Doesn't that just sound good?

[Travis Kelce]

It does.

[Jason Kelce]

Airports all around the world, yeah. And with RESI Global dining access, you can get access to the hottest restaurants while you're there. I might just have to book an international trip so I can try these lounges. Where should I go? Renos, Aries, Sao Paulo, Sydney, Melbourne, Hong Kong, Mumbai, Delhi, Mexico City. London style. I would go to any of those places.

[Travis Kelce]

Sounds like you got to figure it out. I can tell you one thing for certain. Whether you're taking a trip or going out to eat. Eat. Your experience is better when you're with amex, and that's the powerful backing of American Express.

[Jason Kelce]

For terms and to learn more, visit American Express.com with Amex. All right. Want to do the donut bit? Cool. So before we get to football, we're going to review some donuts. Lamar's donuts.

[Travis Kelce]

Oh, yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

This is specific to Kansas City.

[Travis Kelce]

Oh, yeah. Since 1933.

[Jason Kelce]

Oh, yeah. Right on the box.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah, it does. Right there. And we celebrating 90 years. How about that? Donuts have been around for 90 years.

[Jason Kelce]

Well, these donuts have probably been around longer than 90 years.

[Travis Kelce]

It's a good point. Lamar, back then, back in 1933, figured it out. Yellow box, man, I see these things. This is like. This is like seeing gold. It's like finding Pokemon when you see a yellow box just on, like, a random desk football facility. It's like, oh, I wonder if they got the blueberry glaze in there.

[Jason Kelce]

Well, you know that I'm a very critical of donuts. I don't like cake donuts. It's a waste of time. Don't know why anybody likes them.

[Travis Kelce]

It's not a donut.

[Jason Kelce]

It's a cake. It's a circular cake. A donut needs to be fluffy and airy, and you always start with glaze. Go with the simplest thing. Don't get all these concoctions where they try and sell you on these gimmicky donuts.

[Travis Kelce]

Did you have a gimmicky donut named after you?

[Jason Kelce]

I did, and we raised some money. So it was for a good cause. Some. Some people like them. Listen, if that's what you like, that's what you like. But you always start with the simple donut.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

Give it a little pull test. It's a good pull. It's a good pull part.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah, it is.

[Jason Kelce]

It's got good gluten structure.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah. And it's also this. We're. This is. This is in the afternoon, and these were made in the morning.

[Jason Kelce]

So it's a good observation. It's a good donut.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah, it is really good donut. It's fantastic donut. You can see how, like, Jason's fingerprints are. Like, they're in it.

[Jason Kelce]

It's got. It's got good squish and rebound, though. It's got good squish and rebound. The glaze is a little, like, crystally, if that makes sense.

[Travis Kelce]

I like a nice little, like.

[Jason Kelce]

I mean, it's not bad.

[Travis Kelce]

I like a nice little sugary chunk here and there.

[Jason Kelce]

That's not bad. Very good.

[Travis Kelce]

Yep.

[Jason Kelce]

It almost tastes like. It's, like, almost a little bit under baked.

[Travis Kelce]

Dude, I'm telling you.

[Jason Kelce]

I think that that's good, though. Like, it's. I Like it. But it could have.

[Travis Kelce]

Oh, yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

I could have maybe spent like a second more in the fryer.

[Travis Kelce]

I grabbed the best one in the box.

[Jason Kelce]

How's Portnoy do this? Would you give it like something out of 10 or something like that?

[Travis Kelce]

I mean, it's 10 out of 10 right here.

[Jason Kelce]

You can't give it a 10.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah, I can.

[Jason Kelce]

What do you do with the rest of the donuts? What if we get a donut that's better than that one?

[Travis Kelce]

Then it's what?

[Jason Kelce]

What if you get a donut better than this and you've already rated this a 10? What do you rate that one?

[Travis Kelce]

That's a good point.

[Jason Kelce]

That's why you don't ever go straight.

[Travis Kelce]

I gotta re rate this one.

[Jason Kelce]

Then you can't rerate.

[Travis Kelce]

Yes.

[Jason Kelce]

You can't rewrite.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

That's why you don't go 10. You got to go below 10. You always got to give options to go higher. No, it's a good donut.

[Travis Kelce]

It's a 10 out of 10.

[Jason Kelce]

It's not a 10. It's slightly under baked. It's got great structure. Sugary glaze. Could be a little bit more smooth. I'm gonna go seven.

[Travis Kelce]

Eight what?

[Jason Kelce]

Ah, I'll go eight. Two. Good donut. Good donut. Really good donut. Very happy with this donut.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah. You're serious about your reviews? I think this is a phenomenal donut. I'm enjoying the hell out of it. And when I feel this, I give it a 10.

[Jason Kelce]

So you're gonna get a lot of 10 donuts. What's up with. But they also. They also have cake.

[Travis Kelce]

10 donuts. So they also have, every Friday before practice, 10. Well rated. I only eat like four, but that's.

[Jason Kelce]

Just the carb up.

[Travis Kelce]

Right? Here's a little Friday practice.

[Jason Kelce]

They also have cake. I don't know how anybody could prefer this to this.

[Travis Kelce]

They need the. Yeah, I hear you. They need the blueberry glaze. There's.

[Jason Kelce]

This is a lazy man's donut. There's nothing to it.

[Travis Kelce]

It goes good with coffee.

[Jason Kelce]

Listen, I'm not saying it's bad. Like, it's sugar and dough. It's gonna be good.

[Travis Kelce]

Love these things. I'm just wearing all this sugar too. And I'm just gonna piece by piece, just eat it.

[Jason Kelce]

All right, well, there you have it. 8.2. 10. Meaningless.

[Travis Kelce]

If you're. If you're in Kansas City, make sure you check out Lamar's. You got a bunch of locations all over the place. Bold topics to wrap up Week 5 in the NFL. Starting with my game.

[Jason Kelce]

That's right.

[Travis Kelce]

How about that?

[Jason Kelce]

Chiefs 26, saints 13. I don't even know if that score adequately reflects how much you guys pretty much dominated the whole game. If you guys could get in the end zone fucking more, it would be even higher.

[Travis Kelce]

Tell me about it.

[Jason Kelce]

Start with the offense. You guys dominated the time of possession the entire first half. Really got to go on Kareem Hunt again. Another solid outing. I mean, coming out of nowhere, wasn't on anybody's team. And sure enough, him and juju Smith Schuster, you think that they're kind of done in the NFL. They come to the Chiefs and look like two of the best players in the NFL.

[Travis Kelce]

I don't. I don't get how these guys were just.

[Jason Kelce]

Well, Juicy was in New England. He didn't have any quarterbacks throwing him the ball.

[Travis Kelce]

That's a good point.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah.

[Travis Kelce]

Kareem had over there in Cleveland one.

[Jason Kelce]

Of my favorite quarterback sneakers.

[Travis Kelce]

They were there. I mean, Nick Chubb, you want to give that guy the ball?

[Jason Kelce]

You do.

[Travis Kelce]

And we want to give Kareem the ball. And he's absolutely killing it right now.

[Jason Kelce]

He's doing great. You guys have needed it. In Pop's absence, him and Carson Steele have stepped up.

[Travis Kelce]

Done day.

[Jason Kelce]

Cream hunt ended with 102 yards. A touchdown. For some stat nerds out there, which I know everybody loves that now.

[Travis Kelce]

Just the Northeast Ohio ballplayer, baby. I mean, the guys.

[Jason Kelce]

This is his first touchdown as a chief in 2149 days.

[Travis Kelce]

It was a Kareem Hunt style touchdown. Just break a few tackles, break run through a few arm tackles.

[Jason Kelce]

And did he break some tackles?

[Travis Kelce]

I'm pretty sure Kareem breaks at least one tackle every time. He does.

[Jason Kelce]

Every time.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

That's a good. That's a good running back. He's also the first Chief to carry the ball 27 times since. Oh, yeah, that's right. Cream Hunt also did that on December 24, 2017.

[Travis Kelce]

It was a good idea back in 2017. Now it's still a good idea to hand him, especially if it's working. Oh, yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

Juju Smith Schuster also had some stats out there. Led all receivers for the Kansas City Chiefs to seven receptions for 130 yards. Everybody was wondering what that Kansas City offense was going to look like without Rasheed Rice, how they were going to place him. And Juju goes out there with a big game for 130, almost had a touchdown. But that. We'll talk about that in a second. Some stats for those nerds. Juju's 130 receiving yards are his most in the game since the 2020, 2021 season wild card round with the Steelers. JuJu is also the first Chiefs wide receiver not named Rashee Rice with a hundred plus yards receiving in a single regular season game since. That's right. JuJu again had 124 yards against the 49ers on October 23, 2022.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah. Why was it so easy to simply just put juju in the game and then all of a sudden, him to ball out?

[Travis Kelce]

Well, one, both these guys are familiar with the offense. They're familiar with the scheme. I think they're familiar with the nucleus of the coaching staff and the players that we got here. So they just. Honestly, it just felt like we got our guys back in the building. It wasn't. There was no, like, all right, let's ease them into it. It was like, no, they. They're ready to rock and roll right now.

[Jason Kelce]

And all the terminology and all the.

[Travis Kelce]

Plays and, I mean, juju's won a Super bowl with us. Kareem's had unbelievable success in this offense before. So, yeah, I think when it comes down to what Coach Reid is going to call, everybody is very familiar on how to have success with it.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah. And Andy knows how to utilize those guys to their shirts 100%.

[Travis Kelce]

And Pat knows how to get these guys the ball. And he's. He's. He' It.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah.

[Travis Kelce]

Which is awesome to see.

[Jason Kelce]

Well, the other person he's trusting is prime time big Yeti. That's right. As we all know, Travis came up big because he had someone special in the stadium, someone that means a lot to him, and he really tries to always perform well when they're there, and that is me.

[Travis Kelce]

Have I. Have I ever had a. Not. Not in Kansas City. I didn't have a great game.

[Jason Kelce]

You've always had good games when I show up.

[Travis Kelce]

Well, I guess last year I didn't.

[Jason Kelce]

Which one?

[Travis Kelce]

Great game.

[Jason Kelce]

Which game? The playoff games. You dominated the playoffs. Those are the only games I went to last year.

[Travis Kelce]

Oh, I thought I was, like, talking, like, the games that I played against you guys.

[Jason Kelce]

Oh, that's true. The. The game that we played last year wasn't, like, outstanding.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

Super bowl game. The super bowl game. You had a couple big catches.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

You didn't go for 100, but you still went. It was a good day.

[Travis Kelce]

Like 90 or something. 89.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah. You still had a good day.

[Travis Kelce]

I do. I do love a good Monday night showdown.

[Jason Kelce]

Come on now.

[Travis Kelce]

Damn.

[Jason Kelce]

Come on now.

[Travis Kelce]

I Mean, I was fired up for that.

[Jason Kelce]

It's also the knees feel a little bit better. You got a little bit extended rest too.

[Travis Kelce]

It's crazy what that extra day does.

[Jason Kelce]

It's. Yeah. One just 24 hours later. It's crazy how big of a difference it makes for the body is remarkable. Which he will pay the price this week. Oh, you know, bye week. I forgot.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

That's nice. Yeah. So you're not on a short week.

[Travis Kelce]

I mean, I'd rather have a shorter week and have my buy later in the season, but it's fair.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah. It's early. Early by. Sucks.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah. Dude. The Chiefs have the ability to turn the lights off and on now in the stadium. Like talking about.

[Jason Kelce]

They didn't have an off switch for their lights.

[Travis Kelce]

No, I don't think so. I think they were always on.

[Jason Kelce]

There's no way that's possible.

[Travis Kelce]

Either that or like, you know, remember like in. In like the high school or like older lights.

[Jason Kelce]

When you turn them off, it would take them a while to go off or you turn them on. You'd have to wait for them.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

They're not. Yeah.

[Travis Kelce]

I don't know the name of them, but yeah, now we have the ability because.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah, they. They replaced out of the tunnel.

[Travis Kelce]

The lights were off.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah.

[Travis Kelce]

And I was like, we had that.

[Jason Kelce]

Top flight organization, Chiefs getting new lights.

[Travis Kelce]

How about it, baby? Who said we had the worst facility?

[Jason Kelce]

Billions of dollars at stake here and we can finally turn our lights off and on. And a button.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

Let's get right to the play. Everybody's talking about Travis. And that's the lateral. You guys got about. I don't know how much time was left in the half. Maybe 30 seconds, something like that.

[Travis Kelce]

No way. It was not 30 seconds. It was like two minutes. Like just under the two minutes.

[Jason Kelce]

No chance. There was two minutes left. You guys are way under.

[Travis Kelce]

Just under the two minutes. We got the ball back and almost scored again.

[Jason Kelce]

Oh, this was the first possession.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah. Am I right on that? Three and a half minutes left. Yeah. Thank you.

[Jason Kelce]

Okay. I thought that this was the second two minute deal either way. All right. There you go. Thank you. Third and 22. Most teams are like, hey, let's just get the ball in the middle of the field, push it forward, make it a little bit easier for old butt kicker. And you guys decided to not do that.

[Travis Kelce]

Well, I actually went into the huddle like, hey boys, let's just get. Let's just make sure we get in the field goal range here. I remember saying that in the huddle yeah. And. And then Pat literally said, yeah, listen, you are that. Like, you're the underneath guy. Like, if you're open quick, I'm probably gon to you. Yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

Just kind of get north. Get as much as you can. We're kicking the field goal.

[Travis Kelce]

Yep.

[Jason Kelce]

Well, that's not what you did. Here's a clip for those of you that didn't see what he did. He did probably the riskiest thing that any coach. It's actually like anybody else that does. Stick the plan, stick the plane. Oh, my God, he's lateraling again. Oh, my gosh. Hey. How about that? We almost got a first down. What was going on here? I don't. So I knew before you even pitched this when you caught it and the first thing you did was not tuck it, but you held it like this. Well, I didn't. I was like, this dude is. And you looked. And I'm like, this dude is about to pitch the ball. Then you tucked it. I was like, okay, thank God he's not pitching. And I was like, oh, no, he actually is still gonna do it. So what goes on in your head?

[Travis Kelce]

It all happens so fast. I kind of black out, which I'm sure coach Reed is going to love hearing.

[Jason Kelce]

I'm sure coach Reid doesn't care because there's never been one of these that hasn't worked out. 1.

[Travis Kelce]

Where's the. Can we not.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah, that's right. Yeah. We don't want to jinx this. So when you. When you catch this ball, do you just know that P. Ryan's going to be in the flat?

[Travis Kelce]

I had no idea that he had a chip anything on the backside. I was, what are you looking?

[Jason Kelce]

You just know I was reversing.

[Travis Kelce]

I was reversing field. I felt guys over everyone pursuing to you, and I was like, you kind of just get more yards going this way. Yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

And then.

[Travis Kelce]

And then I realized I couldn't get more yards.

[Jason Kelce]

What is causing you to look and see if there's somebody behind you? There's again.

[Travis Kelce]

There's a guy in red over here. I just feel him.

[Jason Kelce]

You just feel that?

[Travis Kelce]

That. Yeah. It's like fast break basketball. You just. You're here. You just feel your running the lane.

[Jason Kelce]

You look like Larry Bird out there.

[Travis Kelce]

Larry Bird, Larry legend. I'll take that.

[Jason Kelce]

Just a better looking version. I mean, Larry was an ugly guy.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah. But Larry's a smooth operation.

[Jason Kelce]

He was very smooth.

[Travis Kelce]

Hell yeah, he was.

[Jason Kelce]

Well, you got the fourth and one. It was incredible. I love.

[Travis Kelce]

I mean, you can't just Throw it on me, Samaj. Unbelievable job by P. Ron, dude. Actually, like, be ready because he was. He was kind of like shuffling.

[Jason Kelce]

Did you see his quote after the game?

[Travis Kelce]

No, I didn't. What did he say he was.

[Jason Kelce]

It's not in here. But he was. He was like, yeah, because he hasn't. P Ron's only been here for how long?

[Travis Kelce]

Three weeks.

[Jason Kelce]

Exactly.

[Travis Kelce]

Four weeks. No, I guess the beginning of the season.

[Jason Kelce]

It was like right around the start.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah, he's been here for five weeks.

[Jason Kelce]

I don't think he was. Was he there for week one?

[Travis Kelce]

I think so.

[Jason Kelce]

Okay, so he's been here, but he was a late addition.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah, he was definitely here since the beginning of the season, for sure.

[Jason Kelce]

So either way, he's like, yeah, you know, I saw him do it a couple times in practice and I just figured, you know, hey, I guess I'll just stay in phase here.

[Travis Kelce]

It's a ballplayer right there. That's a ball player right there. I love it, man.

[Jason Kelce]

They were like, have you ever been a part of something like that? He's like, nah. What was it like? He's like, hey, it's like, I'm playing backyard football. It's fun.

[Travis Kelce]

Let's go, baby.

[Jason Kelce]

Some other reactions. Coach Reed was asked about it and. And this was actually going into half. Coach Reed was asked about that play and he said, we do it every day in practice. I can't. I can't tell you the name of it. So Andy clearly acted like this was something that was called.

[Travis Kelce]

I mean, he's not lying.

[Jason Kelce]

Scott told me this on. Because I did the halftime segment, dude. And they said this clip. And I was like, there ain't no chance that he's cold. The old reverse field lateral from our foot. No. Yeah. Especially in that situation. No, that was not.

[Travis Kelce]

I mean, coach isn't lying, though. We do. We do. You do do it a lot. I mean, said it too.

[Jason Kelce]

He was ready for it. And I think they might should just start letting you do it. I think Andy kind of does.

[Travis Kelce]

Listen, just have to let it.

[Jason Kelce]

What did Andy say to you?

[Travis Kelce]

I haven't talked to coach about it.

[Jason Kelce]

See, that's how he's, you know, he's letting you do it. Well, if he did, if anybody else did it, he would be crushing them. What?

[Travis Kelce]

Why would he be crushing them? If he got us to fourth and one and a chance to convert?

[Jason Kelce]

Because most people are. If they try and do that a lot, it's going to lead to fumbles and turnovers. But he knows for some Reason you have the. This weird Spider man sense for lateraling the football. That doesn't make any sense.

[Travis Kelce]

I'll tell you what.

[Jason Kelce]

Other than the fact that you played.

[Travis Kelce]

Basketball, my guy, Honey Badger, Tyrone. Matthew could have absolutely smoked me on that play.

[Jason Kelce]

He ran right past you, full speed.

[Travis Kelce]

You'll see me, I like, brace myself. Oh, God. Yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

You were exposed, like, bowled it.

[Travis Kelce]

Nah, man, it was a fun play. And it got us a 4th and 1 and got us a chance to convert, man.

[Jason Kelce]

Another quote from one of your teammates. Pat was asked about the play. I told him I was. I told him I was throwing it to him so we could kick a field goal. Yes. Makes sense. And he laterals it all the way across the field. It's like I'm talking to Sterling.

[Travis Kelce]

His daughter.

[Jason Kelce]

In one ear, out the other.

[Travis Kelce]

I got you.

[Jason Kelce]

No, yeah, for sure.

[Travis Kelce]

I'm pretty sure I replied with I got you.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah, no, that's. Yeah. What else would we be doing here?

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah, no, I got. No, I'm with you. Field goal, fourth and one.

[Jason Kelce]

Hey, we're going for touchdown because you guys ended up getting the fourth and one.

[Travis Kelce]

We got the fourth and one, but we ended up kicking.

[Jason Kelce]

But hey, kept. Kept the drive alive.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

Nick Sirianni actually called me this morning asking if it was as I play.

[Travis Kelce]

Dude, if you watch it from like the, the, like full 22, it looks. There's no way.

[Jason Kelce]

You don't think it does. Oh, because of the. The chip.

[Travis Kelce]

It's the chip. And on top of that, it's just like the lateral across field. Like, that's. I'm not banking on that as a coach, that everything's going to go right to where somebody could run across field and then throw it.

[Jason Kelce]

That's fair. I think he knew the answer when he was asking it to me.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah, he just wanted. We do practice it, then we got.

[Jason Kelce]

You in the Wildcat. Second half, Pat motions out the big yeti, goes to the Q position, and you guys do a little zone read type option. It wasn't a zone, but you guys do a little Read, read.

[Travis Kelce]

The end, it was like a power lead.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah, exactly. With Xavier Worthy going on like a little. He's going flat at the end. Collapses on the run.

[Travis Kelce]

Man, this is the first play I've ever had in college football. Just a nice little trail.

[Jason Kelce]

Touchdown.

[Travis Kelce]

Follow Jason up the lane, man. Right up the hash, baby.

[Jason Kelce]

But you did not hand it off or you did not keep it. You handed it off to Xavier, who went around the end.

[Travis Kelce]

You got to read the end.

[Jason Kelce]

But I Could tell you wanted to keep that because you dragged that readout.

[Travis Kelce]

As long as possible.

[Jason Kelce]

Please take it. Please take that. You can't it.

[Travis Kelce]

Some of these DNS are getting savvy on these reads.

[Jason Kelce]

If you.

[Travis Kelce]

So you gotta. You gotta. You gotta keep them honest, and then.

[Jason Kelce]

They'Ll jump back out. You're right.

[Travis Kelce]

You gotta keep them honest.

[Jason Kelce]

They're seeing it a lot more nowadays, especially with the way offenses are incorporating these types of plays more and more.

[Travis Kelce]

At the end of the day, if it's. If it's cloudy, give it to the fastest guy on the team.

[Jason Kelce]

That's probably a safe bet.

[Travis Kelce]

All right. He can just run. Everybody just go run in there. I'll tell you what, man. He's fine.

[Jason Kelce]

You can score the touchdown.

[Travis Kelce]

Xavier's been killing him, man.

[Jason Kelce]

He has been.

[Travis Kelce]

I absolutely love watching him play, man. I love playing with him on the field. And he. He has this crazy, like, ability when he has the ball to just get like. He's like this. He's already skinny, but he just sliz. He slithers through shit.

[Jason Kelce]

Slithery is a good trait for a bull carrier.

[Travis Kelce]

It is. And I'm not going to lie. He. He slithered his way in on that one. We needed it big.

[Jason Kelce]

Well, he also slithered his way over to his mama. After the touchdown, Xavier Worthy found his mom in the stands and gave her the ball. Ball, which, hey, how can you not love a guy that's giving the ball to mama?

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah. You already know what's.

[Jason Kelce]

Mama worthy.

[Travis Kelce]

I was trying to catch him the whole time. I was like, come here.

[Jason Kelce]

Come here.

[Travis Kelce]

I handed it to you.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah, you're going to your mom.

[Travis Kelce]

Oh, nice. Yeah. Love it.

[Jason Kelce]

Yep.

[Travis Kelce]

Gotta show mom some love. Well, she'll. She'll put that one on the mantle, I'm sure.

[Jason Kelce]

Then we got to talk about the other thing, and that's the thing that has been dominant for the Chiefs for, I mean, two years now, and that's this defense. Spagnola has been running the best defense in the NFL for close to two years now.

[Travis Kelce]

Spags, man, I love that guy.

[Jason Kelce]

What else is there to say about the defense that hasn't already been. I mean, I knew, Listen, when you went. New Orleans struggled big time against the Eagles and Jalen Carter. And then they're out three interior guys or two interior guys. I'm like, dude, Chris Jones about to have a day. And he did not disappoint.

[Travis Kelce]

He was Chris Jones. I'm pretty sure you could have your interior guys in there.

[Jason Kelce]

Good point. Doesn't matter. But I mean, even with those guys out, it's like even more like, gosh, how are they going to do this? I mean, and they did it.

[Travis Kelce]

You gotta. You gotta have a plan. And.

[Jason Kelce]

Well, they had a plan and then they got Chris Jones.

[Travis Kelce]

I mean, I get it.

[Jason Kelce]

I can't do it right now.

[Travis Kelce]

Going on, man. This. This Mr.

[Jason Kelce]

He got a thing going on. He's swimming the gods.

[Travis Kelce]

All right.

[Jason Kelce]

Bull rush in the center, man.

[Travis Kelce]

He is. You want to talk about slithery? It's a big slithery guy right there.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah. That's a guy that shouldn't be slithery. But he is.

[Travis Kelce]

But he is.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah.

[Travis Kelce]

Like, he does, like, I feel like whenever I, like, get a chance to block him in practice, he just knows that he could just pick me up and move me.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah.

[Travis Kelce]

So he just has fun trying to slither me.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah, well, he knows he can go to that.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

So he works on the slitheriness so that he has both in his pocket. The defense got the momentum going right from the jump when B. Cook my. Well, yeah, B. Cook my man. Car just threw a. I mean, it was like a jackpot throw.

[Travis Kelce]

Jackpot.

[Jason Kelce]

What was he doing?

[Travis Kelce]

Just, what's that throw?

[Jason Kelce]

Dude, I love Derek Carr. Derek Carr.

[Travis Kelce]

Who doesn't he.

[Jason Kelce]

When he's on, he's like the best. I don't know what that was.

[Travis Kelce]

I've seen Derek Carr throw some. Throw some teddies. Of course he threw me one in the Pro bowl. Actually.

[Jason Kelce]

He threw one in this game.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah, he did. Yeah, it was.

[Jason Kelce]

You rebounded nice from the interception.

[Travis Kelce]

I was. It was one of my, like, backyard football moments in the Pro Bowl.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah.

[Travis Kelce]

He's in there. We get into the red zone. We had ran the. The Tampa, the corner concept so many freaking times. Yeah. That I went up to him, I was like, hey, if they plan that, cover three, I'm just about to run that corner post. And he looked at me, he was like. It like registered in his hand. He's like, all right. Sure enough. Right. I'm talking about on time. Three and a hitch.

[Jason Kelce]

So the same throw he made in that game is the same three. Because they ran a corner post. That's what they scored on.

[Travis Kelce]

Yes. But mine wasn't like 80 yards downfield. It was just like a little, like 15 yard touchdown. But essentially, yeah, he was ready for it.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah, there you go.

[Travis Kelce]

I just. I just like it when, like, QBs are just ball players. You know what I mean? Like, guys, like, they're not regimented into.

[Jason Kelce]

Like, the lines on the Paper and.

[Travis Kelce]

Like I just this read, then this.

[Jason Kelce]

Read, then this read and then I do this.

[Travis Kelce]

You got to go out here and make sure you shake.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah. Make sure. Yeah. Well, here are some stats for the Chiefs defense that has been unbelievable through the first half of the season. Well through the first quarter of the season. The opposing teams feature running backs are a combined 66 carries for 169 yards. That is a whopping 2.6 yards. Yards per carry, zilch. Derek Henry, who has been looked unstoppable these last few weeks for Baltimore, I guess really just that last play this past week. But 13 carries for 46 yards against the Chief. Zach Moss, 12 carries for 34 yards. Bijan Robinson, heard of that guy. He ran all over the Eagles. 16 carries for 31 yards. J.K. dobbins, 14 carries. I mean these are awful stat lines. Alvin Camara, one of the best running backs over the last one.

[Travis Kelce]

I mean you just named four of the. Yeah. Top running backs in the NFL right there.

[Jason Kelce]

And not just like this year like that have been.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah, up there. Yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

Like Alvin Kamara, 11 carries, 26 yards. Again, I went into the game not expecting much spags.

[Travis Kelce]

He got half of those yards on a.

[Jason Kelce]

That's right. That reversed like a play. That was a broken play that he made happen. Yeah.

[Travis Kelce]

Which that's what he does. And obviously we can throw spags names out there but the defense just plays so great together.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah.

[Travis Kelce]

And when it comes to the run game mdana George Carloft, these guys are just like playing their part and then you got the backers just flying the.

[Jason Kelce]

Around all over the place. Bolton, he sniffs screens out.

[Travis Kelce]

I mean he's, he's Drew Tranquil's out there flying the around like is Leo.

[Jason Kelce]

Chanel a dn now he's everything.

[Travis Kelce]

He's, he's our like Jack of all trade. He could just do everything. Yeah, he's John Cena. I just want to see him come to the game in George and a fucking big tee and a hat sideways like this.

[Jason Kelce]

Well, you guys saw a few familiar faces come to the game this week. Four former Chiefs including Tyron Matthew, Willie Gay and Colin Saunders.

[Travis Kelce]

My brother from another and he caught.

[Jason Kelce]

A nice little juju, kind of missed one of them. Went off his hands right into the big man's hands. And take a look at this highlight. He was moving thick, thick, thick pick. That's he was moving. According to next gen stats, 15.8 miles per hour on this 36 yard interception return. That doesn't even do it justice. You gotta watch it. His little legs were a churning, bro.

[Travis Kelce]

Them legs aren't little. He's. His stride is little.

[Jason Kelce]

No, them legs are short. He's got short little stumpy legs and they were trucking.

[Travis Kelce]

And I mean, former running back in.

[Jason Kelce]

College, he looked like it.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

It was an impressive like athletic run.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

It wasn't like a detachable deal.

[Travis Kelce]

I've seen that guy do backflips.

[Jason Kelce]

I've seen the social clips too. He's a good athlete and this was an impressive pick.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

All I could hear was the Super Mario Star theme song. The third fastest speed by a ball carrier who weighs over 320 pounds. I suppose that's a compliment.

[Travis Kelce]

That's hilarious.

[Jason Kelce]

Since 2016, which I think is like when they started recording this type of data.

[Travis Kelce]

Third fastest fat guy.

[Jason Kelce]

Well, third fastest big, like extra fat guy.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

Cuz he's not the fattest, but he's. There ain't many guys over 320.

[Travis Kelce]

Felt like I ran into a brick wall when I on the play right.

[Jason Kelce]

Before that obliterated you.

[Travis Kelce]

It was like I caught the ball and the play that was designed, it's like it's such a bang bang play. Like I catch it and I'm already having to like lean forward. So it's like either the hole's there or it's not.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah.

[Travis Kelce]

And he was just standing right in and I'm just like well we're going right.

[Jason Kelce]

Here we go. Yeah. And he is a muscle. Let me tell you. If you're 320 pounds doing flips, there ain't a lot of loosey goosey nest to that 320. That is a boulder.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

With short stumpy legs on it. And he is also the brother. Oh, there he is. Look at him with the. The gas mask.

[Travis Kelce]

Oh yeah. The bane mask. Getting some fresh oxygen. I'd have been tired after that.

[Jason Kelce]

Just.02 for sure. LeBron started the game with eight catches in the first half of tonight's game. Travis tied his record for second most catches in the first half of a regular season game in his career. What the fuck am I reading? He has had eight plus first half receptions versus the Los Angeles Chargers on October 22, 20, 33 and 9. And then he last had exactly eight first half receptions at Hughes. So he had a really good first half. That's what that stat means. Week six, the next time the Chiefs are going to play is going to be week six. They're on a buy this week or week seven, they're on a buy this week, next week. The next time they're going to play is going to be against San Fran. I see. This is what pisses me off. San Francisco. Do you know that they don't like being called San Fran? San Franciscans?

[Travis Kelce]

No.

[Jason Kelce]

Like, what did they like? They. They get mad if you like, abbreviate. I don't. Because they're. Because they're too good to be called for Sam for. You don't get to choose your nickname. Everybody knows that. Growing up, your nickname is what your nickname is. People choose your nickname. You don't get to choose your own nickname. Don't tell me what to call you. Sam Fran. Now I want to call you Sam Fran more. I don't even want to call you saying I'm going to shorten it. More. You guys are now Franny. You guys play Franny Week 7 next week.

[Travis Kelce]

I won't. I won't be a part of this.

[Jason Kelce]

You don't want to give him any more gas. Well, hey, they don't need any more juice. They. They're going to be fired up to get back in the wincom. They're not happy with how things have gone. I'm sure.

[Travis Kelce]

Man, it was. It was tough watching them this week.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah. Any you guys? Any you. Any by week plans?

[Travis Kelce]

[Jason Kelce]

We did.

[Travis Kelce]

We did. I fell asleep on some of those afternoon games, the 4 o'clock games.

[Jason Kelce]

You took a nice little nap, which you're getting ready to play Monday, so.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah. And. And you. You dozed off there a little bit towards.

[Jason Kelce]

I did. I took a little 15 minute power nap.

[Travis Kelce]

But that's what Sundays are for. Yeah. Sunday was officially the longest day of NFL football ever. How about that? The London game kick off at 9:32am Eastern on Sunday and Sunday night football ended at 1am Eastern because of the rain delay.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah. That's a long day.

[Travis Kelce]

That's a pretty crazy day. I will say this though, man. There's just nothing better than just getting the crew together and watching some football, man.

[Jason Kelce]

I agree. I mean, there's a reason why it's the most popular SP in America.

[Travis Kelce]

It's just. And YouTube TV just makes it so fun because you can watch four games at one.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah.

[Travis Kelce]

It's just. It's just you could. You always have something to talk about and something to see Sunday ticket.

[Jason Kelce]

And being able to watch all the games drastically improves Sunday.

[Travis Kelce]

It's.

[Jason Kelce]

There's nothing worse than being stuck with the two games that are on that are just abysmal games.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

Because now you're just watching like ESPN to see what's happening in the good games.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

So being able to go to all the games, it's a big bonus.

[Travis Kelce]

I'm with you, man. Watching that, what was it? We were watching the Baltimore game. Baltimore game, Baltimore, Cincinnati. That was a freaking.

[Jason Kelce]

It was awesome.

[Travis Kelce]

That was a banger.

[Jason Kelce]

Slower first half, but the second half was bombs over Baghdad.

[Travis Kelce]

Dude, that Lamar. We're gonna probably get to it, huh? I don't know.

[Jason Kelce]

I don't know what he put in this rundown.

[Travis Kelce]

No, we're not. Dude, that Lamar touchdown where he broke like three.

[Jason Kelce]

It's like stiff arms and he's running, still rolling. I still thought him twice. Hubbard came back from. Back in and he keeps going. I'm like, dude, he's about. There's no way he's about to throw.

[Travis Kelce]

Yes, he is going to throw in the end zone.

[Jason Kelce]

And it was a dime right to Isaiah likely. I don't know how Isaiah likely was that open. I mean, you can legitimately hold people.

[Travis Kelce]

I'm not gonna lie. I don't. I don't understand what we were doing as the.

[Jason Kelce]

You like tackle the guy.

[Travis Kelce]

Yes. And there were two Guys over there.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah. They were just looking at them, which, I mean, I guess.

[Travis Kelce]

I mean, I probably would have been.

[Jason Kelce]

Mesmerized by what Lamar was doing too.

[Travis Kelce]

Nice.

[Jason Kelce]

Now that I think about it. My man Burrow was throwing lights out too, dude.

[Travis Kelce]

Him and Jason.

[Jason Kelce]

It was a old fashioned gunk. Listen, they were talking about defense. The whole first three to four weeks has been how the defenses are taking over the league. Points are down all over the place. We're trying. I mean, grown men are crying about too high safety defenses and how we need to outlaw them. Mel Kuiper. It's embarrassing.

[Travis Kelce]

He did go on a ran.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah. Call stick the draft analysis. Mel. And then Lamar and Joe Burrow go out there.

[Travis Kelce]

When baseball complains about the. No, we need to wind the baseballs up a little bit. We need more offense.

[Jason Kelce]

We need to. We do need to back the mound up.

[Travis Kelce]

What?

[Jason Kelce]

I'm a big fan of backing them.

[Travis Kelce]

Fuck you are. Mel Kuiper right now.

[Jason Kelce]

That's fine. I don't care. I'm not a baseball player. So I can be Mel Kiper baseball. I get to be that now.

[Travis Kelce]

You're ridiculous.

[Jason Kelce]

That mound distance was set when people were throwing like 80 miles an hour.

[Travis Kelce]

What?

[Jason Kelce]

When that, that distance. The last time they moved that mound back was like a time in baseball when offensive like production was struggling again and they wanted more hits, they wanted more on people on base. They wanted to make the game have more action. So they moved the mound back. They haven't moved it back in like, I don't know. I forget the date. So I'm not just going to pull a number out of my ass. But it's been a long time. The hitters have also gotten better.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

I just think that they should move it back just a little bit. They're outlawing the shift. They outlawed the shift. I think that's ridiculous. You should be able to line up wherever you want.

[Travis Kelce]

The shift.

[Jason Kelce]

You should be able to shift. Don't tell me why I can't like.

[Travis Kelce]

Hit it over there.

[Jason Kelce]

I think that was stupid. I just move the mound back.

[Travis Kelce]

I guess that's probably closer to 2 high safety.

[Jason Kelce]

That's what I'm saying.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah. Yeah. So what would be equivalent to baseball to move in the mound?

[Jason Kelce]

To football?

[Travis Kelce]

It would be the kickoff.

[Jason Kelce]

It would be like if they. If like what they probably should do for kickers. Kickers are making like 60 yarders. Like it's routine. We need to narrow these field goal. It's too easy to kick field goals now.

[Travis Kelce]

We gotta narrow.

[Jason Kelce]

We gotta Narrow. We gotta go to rugby. We gotta go to rugby. Goalposts. I'm old. Like, kickers should not be influencing football games as much as they are right now. Me and Connor Barwin said this like 10 years ago. We need to get specialists out of the NFL. Specialists, Just kickers.

[Travis Kelce]

So how is it. How is it at the end of.

[Jason Kelce]

Ruined the game, everything's got to be.

[Travis Kelce]

A hail Mary now?

[Jason Kelce]

I don't know.

[Travis Kelce]

It adds excitement to the game.

[Jason Kelce]

Just throw the ball through the uprights. Why do we have to have this guy come out here and kick it? That doesn't belong on the football field.

[Travis Kelce]

Too easy.

[Jason Kelce]

Make it tighter. You just make it. He's got. Just have a big one. Post. You just got to hit the post.

[Travis Kelce]

Hit the post.

[Jason Kelce]

That's three points. I don't want these guys going out there in soccer shoes and you can't touch them and. Or make believe like this is a football player.

[Travis Kelce]

Harry's won me a lot of football games, man.

[Jason Kelce]

Well, yeah, I'm sure you're pro kickers. You got a great kicker and Jake Elliott. Shout out to Jake Elliott. He's a great kicker too.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

I just disagree with everything about it.

[Travis Kelce]

Back to offenses not being dead. Rookies Jaden Daniels, Caleb Williams and Bo nicks each had 200 plus and big wins.

[Jason Kelce]

Big, big days for the rookies.

[Travis Kelce]

How about it, man?

[Jason Kelce]

And we were just. So we went to Andrew Santino's show.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

After the show.

[Travis Kelce]

Sidetown.

[Jason Kelce]

After the show. Santino, being a Bears fan, asked me about Caleb Williams. I'm like, I don't know. They don't look that good. And then all of a sudden he goes out and plays like that. And I made sure to text Santino halfway through the game, hey, Caleb Williams looks pretty good today.

[Travis Kelce]

Exactly, dude. He. Him and Jaden Daniels both have the ability to extend the play for sure. So I feel like with them it's. It's all about understanding the scheme and understand and getting the ball out in time and things like that and letting those extra, you know, extended plays like come natur. I think Caleb in the beginning was. Was trying to do a lot with the ball in his hands.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah, he wasn't comfortable.

[Travis Kelce]

And sometimes you just. You need to have a few of those games to get acclimated into the NFL. And now you realize what you can and cannot do every. I mean, he's getting acclimated.

[Jason Kelce]

The coaches are getting used to what he's good at and he can.

[Travis Kelce]

I'm not. I'm not going to say he Was the team at usc. But he had to do a lot at usc.

[Jason Kelce]

Sure.

[Travis Kelce]

And to feel like that in the NFL is unfair.

[Jason Kelce]

He's got a lot of good weapons.

[Travis Kelce]

That's what I'm saying. So it's like sometimes it's just letting your guys do. Do some work for you, man.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah, well, he was finding D.J.

[Travis Kelce]

And he was absolutely. He was. That's what he was doing. He was throwing. He was slinging the thing around. Right.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah. He looked more comfortable this week. The old line was. I mean, the Panthers were not offering much.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

Sometimes you just need to, you know.

[Travis Kelce]

Get a little confidence booster.

[Jason Kelce]

Dude, I don't know. All I know is that, yeah, some. Some guys take a little bit more time to, like, feel more comfortable. Obviously, this is. He's been getting better.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

And whether that's him getting more comfortable, the coaches get more comfortable, the offensive line playing better, it could be a number of things. All I know is that it looked pretty good this past week, so hopefully they can build on it. Their defense is rolling. I did not know they were three and two.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

I thought the Bears were terrible. And then all of a sudden, I look at the record like they're a winning football team. Yeah, I forgot.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah, no, they're. That's the NFL for you, brother.

[Jason Kelce]

Me, high level NFL analyst right here on primetime television, didn't even know the Bears record. I was like, I'm not paying attention. And then they suck. And then all of a sudden it's like, oh, hey, I guess I gotta.

[Travis Kelce]

Watch the Bears being the best division of football.

[Jason Kelce]

That's my opinion, Santino.

[Travis Kelce]

In terms of record, I think ar the best division in football.

[Jason Kelce]

I think that's right. Them Minnesota Lions and Green Bay, all of them are good.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah. NFC North. I mean, is there anybody else that's even close? I thought the AFC east was going to be good this year. They suck again. Every time, I think. I thought they were going to be great last year. And then like, that's like the Bills are even struggling now. All of a sudden, they beat the brakes off of Jacksonville. And now the last two years, the last two weeks, they've kind of calmed down.

[Travis Kelce]

Jacksonville found a way to get a dub Dougie P. Down there.

[Jason Kelce]

They did. They finally got their first win.

[Travis Kelce]

Sometimes just gotta get back on. Get back on the tracks, baby.

[Jason Kelce]

That's right. That's right.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah. And Joe Flacco reached a top speed of 18.76 miles per hour.

[Jason Kelce]

He was moving.

[Travis Kelce]

Moving.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah.

[Travis Kelce]

The big man still got the stride.

[Jason Kelce]

Yes. He does he's got long legs?

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

He's got some new shoes I saw him on. Pat McAfee said he's got. He's got like coconut something or something. What the they say about his shoes? Brandon, can you get this? Weird. I don't know.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah. Well he. He also threw for 350 yards and three touchdowns.

[Jason Kelce]

That's probably better than the 18 mile per hour run.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah, I think the more impressive one though is the 18 mile per hour run because I just don't know too many 39 year olds that can do that.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

Not just 39, but 39 years that were not known for running previously. He's never been known for being a runner.

[Travis Kelce]

No.

[Jason Kelce]

Alec Pierce, former Bearcat had a lot of those receiving.

[Travis Kelce]

How about it, huh? Bearcats is making plays all weekend. Yeah, all weekend. While the Bearcats were on a buy. Coming back baby. Yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

So it's good that the NFL offenses aren't dead because that is makes for exciting games. Definitely happy to see the production getting back up there. Speaking of getting up there, let's get to the Giants doing something that a lot of people have never seen before. This is all over social media. Giants in their win over the Seahawks 29, 20 score. A late minute fumble. A block kick for a touchdown. The Giants jump over or jump through the a Gap.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

19. Who's 19? Do you know 19?

[Travis Kelce]

Isaiah Simmons.

[Jason Kelce]

Isaiah Simmons, yeah.

[Travis Kelce]

Ball athletic as hell.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah. Jumps through the A gap. A lot of people didn't know you could jump. You can jump in the NFL it is illegal thing to jump.

[Travis Kelce]

You're allowed to jump.

[Jason Kelce]

You just can't land on anybody or use yourself to propel upwards off of somebody. But you can indeed jump on an NFL field.

[Travis Kelce]

Noted.

[Jason Kelce]

Randy Moss made a career out of it. They also didn't know that you couldn't hold people down which that is a little bit of a gray area.

[Travis Kelce]

100. It's like there's one thing about yanking someone.

[Jason Kelce]

You can't like grab and pull the person forward. That's definitely against the rules. I've seen that call. That's whole. But if you are just. If you are just assisting somebody who's already going in a way, in other words to. In order for you to not get your ass kicked on field goal, you need to be as low as possible. So every line, what they do is they get as low as possible and then rise on contact. So what the Giants did here is they just put their hands on the O lineman when they already went low themselves. So that's not holding. They just assisted them in going low. Assisted. And then Simmons jumps out through the A gap. Great timing. One of the reasons you don't see this done as much is because it's near impossible for the jumper to time it that perfect. To be able to jump, not touch any of the O linemen, get through those two guys to get the hold or the assist on the O line down and then to then land and then rejoin jump. There's like a. And then the opera. There's a million things that have to go right for this to get pulled off.

[Travis Kelce]

Is there. Is there a world where they call this a penalty? And it's like, yeah, you can't do.

[Jason Kelce]

That, like, in the future.

[Travis Kelce]

No, just like on this play.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah. Refs make mistakes all the time.

[Travis Kelce]

Oh, so you think it was completely like. There's no, like, gray, like, oh, it could have went either way. It just depends on, like, how they say there's a hold on every play.

[Jason Kelce]

I don't think that this is illegal in any anyway.

[Travis Kelce]

Okay. Personally, keep this thing moving. Max Crosby talks the tap, man. What?

[Jason Kelce]

What? He's got a lot of tattoos. It's Tatman.

[Travis Kelce]

Oh, he is. He is. Listen, he is tatted. Max Crosby shital caught on broadcast. How about it? Screaming Bo Nick, speak up. They don't know while Bo Nicks was audible on a third and four in the second quarter. And I love a good shit talk.

[Jason Kelce]

I do.

[Travis Kelce]

Is this just good coaching? Because it did kind of look like at first, like everybody was waiting on to figure out what was going on.

[Jason Kelce]

What do you mean on the.

[Travis Kelce]

On the Denver side.

[Jason Kelce]

What do you mean is good coaching for Max?

[Travis Kelce]

Max is coaching him up.

[Jason Kelce]

Max is on coaching.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

It's good talking. I mean, I think he's just observationally seeing that the O line is like, what? What are we doing? There's some funny stuff that happens in the trenches. Like, there is confusion sometimes. And sometimes, like, you just say exactly what's happening and you get this back and forth. Every once in a while, like, he's like, just pull. There are moments where it's like, you don't have time. Like, you can't say, like, chico. Chico. What was that? Chico.

[Travis Kelce]

What? Pull, damn it. Just in the fucking crossbow, there was one.

[Jason Kelce]

You know the radar defense, when they're, like, moving around and they. You don't know where the down guys are or anything. He was up there. He said the. The clock was moving. He's like, just block.

[Travis Kelce]

Dude. There will be sometimes, like that just rambles up like, he just spits it out because the. We're losing time on the clock.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah.

[Travis Kelce]

And I'm just like, what was that?

[Jason Kelce]

What?

[Travis Kelce]

I can't hear. And I'm like. All I hear is, like, the formation. I'm like, walking up. It's like, what the play is this? And he'll just tell me what it is, and then I'll look at the guy that's guarding me. I'm. I'm like, what do I. Don't just fucking tell them.

[Jason Kelce]

There'll be. Sometimes you're like, playing a team that you play a lot and you're trying to mess with them on, like, where the slide's going. So I'd be like, this. I'd be like, hey, rip, Rip. Rip. And he's like, what? He's like, rip.

[Travis Kelce]

God damn it.

[Jason Kelce]

Now everybody knows you ruined it.

[Travis Kelce]

Oh, man.

[Jason Kelce]

Locker room media policy. Let's get to the real important stuff and more important news around the league. The NFL PA has put out a statement about something that they shouldn't be worried about at all. The FoBA has put out a statement about moving media interviews out of the locker rooms. And a lot of players have since spoken up about. This has been something that guys have talked about for a long time. For those of you that don't know, after games or practices, there is a period of time that the locker room is open for media members to go in and talk to players, interview them, ask, you know, what happened in the game, you know, what's going on this week, Week, whatever stories are writing. And there's no end to that.

[Travis Kelce]

That is me.

[Jason Kelce]

Watch. I don't think that that's why they're in there. This is what is being alleged.

[Travis Kelce]

This is. Yeah, this is what I mean. This is what is being alleged.

[Jason Kelce]

I suppose that there's probably been a few Peters gazed over the years. Here's the statement the NFL PA has issued. Tori Smith tweeted. My good friend Tori Smith, former teammate, super bowl champion.

[Travis Kelce]

Speak up for the league, Tori Smith.

[Jason Kelce]

If only y'all knew how awkward some of the male reporters reporters act. Straight meat watchers. I'm not gonna lie. I. It is a little weird that people are in there, but I don't mind. I never minded it.

[Travis Kelce]

You never mind.

[Jason Kelce]

Listen, somebody wants my. My dick. My dick is low on the totem pole. I'm not impressing anybody or doing anything. If you want to look at it, go for it. Be my guest. They got nothing. It's not going to impress you. It's going to Be.

[Travis Kelce]

It's going to make some babies, man. So it's going to do.

[Jason Kelce]

It's efficient. It gets the job done, Especially making girls. But it's not. I don't know. I've never cared. I've never thought about it, and I've never noticed anybody staring at it.

[Travis Kelce]

We've been in locker rooms our entire lives. So it's like, I still remember going.

[Jason Kelce]

Into the YMCA and Cleveland Heights and seeing an old man's balls drag along a sauna. I didn't know that we were all of a sudden.

[Travis Kelce]

Which is risky in two ways, man. You can splinter those things.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah. I remember it being.

[Travis Kelce]

Visually, you can. You can sear those things, man.

[Jason Kelce]

Listen, I was a meat gay sauna.

[Travis Kelce]

You.

[Jason Kelce]

How hard it is not to look at an old man balls in a sauna. You can't not look at those. There's nothing sexual about it, Tori. It's like, how the hell are those things hanging that low?

[Travis Kelce]

He's got a point, Tori. Man, I think this was a h. An absolutely hilarious statement. And, you know, Twitter. Twitter, you can. You can just have some fun on there. Yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

Kyle Use also went out there on Twitter. He said, maybe we can keep Grant Khan. I think that's how you pronounce this guy's name. Sorry, Grant, for this. From always hanging out around lockers while we're changing. So he directly not only is calling out the collective group of porters, but Grant is catching strays here. Apparently, he has been known to shout.

[Travis Kelce]

Out the juice, man.

[Jason Kelce]

I do think. Oh, I don't think this is the problem that it's being made out to be.

[Travis Kelce]

It's so funny, though.

[Jason Kelce]

I really honestly think guys just don't want to be interviewed in the locker room. And a lot of people are crying wolf right now to just try and.

[Travis Kelce]

Get the reporters on the locker room. Hey, listen, man, it sounds like everybody's having fun with it, man.

[Jason Kelce]

I don't. Yeah, I'm just like, I don't. I don't think this is a big deal. I never had an issue with it. I think it's like, it's so easy to just not show your dick to everybody.

[Travis Kelce]

Like, yeah, that seems like putting a.

[Jason Kelce]

Towel on or go into the. The bathroom that they aren't in. Like, they're not in the showers. Like, hey, how'd you catch that ball? Like, you can definitely not show your dick if you don't want to. Guys, it's not mandatory that your dick's out while you're talking to these people.

[Travis Kelce]

I think it's actually encouraged.

[Jason Kelce]

Excuse me. Lower your pants please. I need to do my interview now. The. Are we talking about. I don't know what the problem is.

[Travis Kelce]

No, I've never had a problem with it. But I think. I think it's actually encouraged by the NFL to be collected clothed. I don't think they encourage you to be naked.

[Jason Kelce]

Hey, can you please show me that tush? Push. Reach down and touch your toes real quick. I want to see what this looks like. If you're self conscious, there's a. Definitely a way to not have your genitals out. Breaking NFL news, the jets announced they have parted ways with the head coach Robert Salah because he was the issue. After five games this season and a 2 and 3 record, the much maligned jets offense struggling and they fire their defensive coach. Jets J, can we get your thoughts?

[C]

I'm here.

[Jason Kelce]

I'm in the house.

[Travis Kelce]

You are here. Nice.

[Jason Kelce]

You are our expert in the New York jets comings and goings. What are your thoughts on the departure of head coach Robert Salah?

[C]

Yeah, I mean everything's going great. This seems like a well run organization. Nothing going wrong. It's crazy. I mean every year I get my hopes up and every year, five weeks into the season I'm in the same damn place.

[Jason Kelce]

Just. Are you familiar with the definition of insanity?

[C]

I've heard this once or twice.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah, I.

[C]

You know, I. I love this team. There's nothing I can do. But you know, maybe hiring a defensive head coach, forcing him to pick a quarterback he didn't want, forcing him to fire the offensive coordinator, then hiring a different offensive coordinator he didn't want than firing him because the offense sucked might not be a good idea. Just my take. I'm dumb. I don't know football. But that's my thought.

[Travis Kelce]

Well, you are.

[Jason Kelce]

I think you're right in everything you just said. What is the. What do you think should be the next head coach of the New York Jets?

[C]

All right, so I got one name. I. I'm going to fix the organization. You guys are going to love it. He's a Northeast Ohio boy. O, go get Mike Vrabel. Call Mike Vrabel today. Get him in the building. That guy can run a program.

[Jason Kelce]

Listen, I don't hate that they need. I will say right now I don't.

[Travis Kelce]

Do it next year or something.

[C]

Yeah, not right now.

[Jason Kelce]

I don't know that anybody's taking that job this year. It doesn't feel like any. Doesn't matter who they hire as the head coach. The head coach Is Aaron Rogers. I don't even know why they're not even just naming them the head coach. I just want to see a player, coach.

[Travis Kelce]

I do too, man. I kind of want to see.

[Jason Kelce]

I just want to see it. Just make Aaron the head coach.

[Travis Kelce]

Just do it.

[Jason Kelce]

You know you want to do it. Everybody wants to see it. What if he just fucking leaked into the promised land?

[Travis Kelce]

It would be.

[C]

That would be fucking awesome.

[Jason Kelce]

Shut up, Jake. You have any other thoughts from around the league you want to share while you have your moment here, Judge?

[C]

Jake, this nook is really sweet. This is a good setup you got here.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah, we don't need that kind of comment.

[Travis Kelce]

We.

[Jason Kelce]

I was asking about NFL takes, but thank you. Yeah, well, I don't have those.

[C]

Thanks, guys.

[Travis Kelce]

And lastly, it's time for the segment we debuted last week, Coach quote of the week. A little context for this quote. During the Broncos Raiders game, cameras caught Bo Nicks and Sean Payton going at it on the side.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah, I think we can tell from body language. Sometimes coaches like this Howard Mudd used to purposely get guys riled up just to see if they would, like, tell him, you're wrong, coach. He play mind games like that? Yeah, I think it's kind of up, but I respect it.

[Travis Kelce]

I mean, we want to talk about the best to do it ever. Tom Brady used to get pissed on the sideline. Yeah, you show some aggression.

[Jason Kelce]

I don't listen. I don't have a problem with showing emotion. And it seems like Sean Payton doesn't have a problem with it either. Post game, game. Sean Payton, asked about this moment, said there's still a little bit of Ferris Bueller in this player that we're trying to get rid of.

[Travis Kelce]

Hold on.

[Jason Kelce]

What does that mean?

[Travis Kelce]

Love Ferris. I got a little Ferris Bueller.

[Jason Kelce]

I mean, what's wrong with that? You should ever get a word of Ferris Bueller.

[Travis Kelce]

What's wrong with skipping school? Yeah, skipping school and stealing cars. What's wrong with that?

[Jason Kelce]

If Bo Nicks is Ferris, does that make Sean Payton the principal?

[Travis Kelce]

The principal?

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah.

[Travis Kelce]

What's.

[Jason Kelce]

What's his name? Rooney. Principal Root. Thank you, Brandon. Yeah. Does that make champagne principal? Because Principal Rooney's the bad guy in the movie.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah, I hope I'm. I don't.

[Jason Kelce]

If any. If you watch that movie, Ferris Bueller is the good guy.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah. He's who you're rooting for. Yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

Ferris Bueller is the coolest character in pretty much any movie I've ever seen. Keep fighting authority. Authority figures suck. Principal Rooney sucks. Keep being you. You're the good guy in this. Don't forget everybody loves Ferris B. Nobody likes Prince.

[Travis Kelce]

But also have a good relationship with your coach.

[Jason Kelce]

Also listen to Sean Payne. He's been a really good coach for a long time.

[Travis Kelce]

Oh, and then one last quote. Cowboys beat the Steelers on a last second Dak. Touchdown to Jalen Tolbert.

[Jason Kelce]

Good play.

[Travis Kelce]

Right there is Smith on the game winning touchdown pass from Dak Prescott to Jalen Tolbert. Bro, it was miraculous. JT literally sprained his fucking nuts. Excuse me. Sorry guys. Sprained his nuts the play before then comes back, makes the game winner. Unbelievable.

[Jason Kelce]

I love that he thought saying was the worst part of this dude. Statement.

[Travis Kelce]

Swear jar.

[Jason Kelce]

Sorry guys. Sorry. I forgot I'm not supposed to. He sprained his nuts. What does that even mean? Can you sprain your nuts?

[Travis Kelce]

I think. I don't know.

[Jason Kelce]

I know you know you can.

[Travis Kelce]

I've never heard of that one.

[Jason Kelce]

You know what you can do? You can twist your nuts. Call it testicular torsion.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah, you can.

[Jason Kelce]

Which by the way is a hospitable. Like I'll never forget a center for Cleveland Heights. And he had to go to the emergency room. Die. That's how important testicles are, kids. Which is why if you see an old man in the sauna, do not twist them things because they are very twistable.

[Travis Kelce]

They were droopy.

[Jason Kelce]

They're day. There's some sad nuts down low. They have seen a lot of gravity through the years and they are prone to detoursion.

[Travis Kelce]

Skin got a little loose as he got on.

[Jason Kelce]

Older one would only assume they were not fresh out looking like that. Thank you Tyler Smith for cleaning up that quote and making it safe for the kids watching kids watching. Nuts. That does it for week five roundup. Let's get to some no dumb questions before we get out of here. Let's wrap up the show with some no dumb questions. Because there's no such thing as dumb questions. Just dumb people. No Dumb Questions is brought to you by the powerful backing of American Express. What was the bit that we did about America?

[Travis Kelce]

Don't steal home without it.

[Jason Kelce]

That's right. Don't steal home without.

[Travis Kelce]

Shout out to the guards, baby. Let's go, man.

[Jason Kelce]

From Lacey Amos. Hey, New height show. What's the story with the T. Kelsey T. Rex logo on the inside of his gloves? Well, Travis, I would like to know this question and answer as well.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah, well, the gloves are custom from Nike and Nike asked me. Yeah, from Nike. And they asked me if I want to throw a logo in there. And I. I Guess When I was a kid, you. You said. You say it best when you say you don't choose your own nicknames. I was given the nickname T Rex when I played low post basketball and when I was like, 10 years old.

[Jason Kelce]

Okay, okay. Why were you nicknamed T. Rex?

[Travis Kelce]

That's a good question. I think T for Travis and T Rex was like, kind of like a. A mind frame, like a mindset.

[Jason Kelce]

It sounds like a little kid like Nick.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah. Or it was because I was just, like, fat with short arms.

[Jason Kelce]

Why have I never heard this before? Before?

[Travis Kelce]

Oh, no, it was that in traveling. Trav, have you heard traveling?

[Jason Kelce]

I did not hear traveling. Travel. That's not.

[Travis Kelce]

It's not because I was traveling all over the world because. It was because I did not want.

[Jason Kelce]

To put that basketball because I was Carmen San Diego.

[Travis Kelce]

It was because I did not like to dribble. I wasn't a dribbler at all. Who does. I know. Yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

You and LeBron James.

[Travis Kelce]

Well, I mean, back in the day, it was traveling. Nowadays, I would have. I honestly, I could probably made it the NFL. I mean, you know what?

[Jason Kelce]

I used to think you. There was no chance in hell, but the more I see how close in height you are to some of these.

[Travis Kelce]

Guys and you think height is the.

[Jason Kelce]

I thought that was.

[Travis Kelce]

The height isn't the difference.

[Jason Kelce]

Dude, Stefan, Steph Curry is an outlier. Just because he can shoot like, threes from mid court, height is a big deal. And whether you can make it to the NBA.

[Travis Kelce]

Steph Curry is, like, six four.

[Jason Kelce]

I know. That's what I'm saying. He's short. So when you, like, you're 6 5. I didn't think you were. Had the height necessary to play in the low post.

[Travis Kelce]

Oh, no, I definitely didn't.

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

But then I see you next to Luca, and you're the same height as the guy, so you could have.

[Travis Kelce]

You probably could have done it.

[Jason Kelce]

I think you legitimately might have had a chance to do it.

[Travis Kelce]

I. I don't think I would have been a superstar, an all star or anything, but I think I could have made it.

[Jason Kelce]

I think you might have been, especially with them lateral moves. That helps you on the basketball court more than it does the NFL court.

[Travis Kelce]

Listen, fast break. You want me on the fast break?

[Jason Kelce]

You're. Unless you have to.

[Travis Kelce]

No, no, no. I'm gonna catch that. I'm gonna get the rebound. Start the fast break.

[Jason Kelce]

Got it.

[Travis Kelce]

It would. Where I. Where I traveled was like, on the wing trying to.

[Jason Kelce]

I love that maneuver. Yeah. All right. Well, there you Go, Lacey Amos. Next. Note.

[Travis Kelce]

Childhood nickname that I like to really embrace the. The mentality of a T. Rex on the field. I think that's where. That's where I was going with T Rex, man.

[Jason Kelce]

T Rex on a field. I think you're the exact opposite of a T. Rex. T. Rex. Bad vision.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelce]

Although they see objects that move. So maybe when you saw P. Ron moving, then you're like, oh, T Rex. You don't have short arms either. I don't get that your arms are long.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah, I think it was at least average for you. I think it was just a nickname from when I was younger.

[Jason Kelce]

Next. No dumb question. Joe Cunningham, 1937. No dumb question. What happened to the shout outs? Nobody is taking their game to new heights this year. Bomb. Very passive aggressive there from you, Joe.

[Travis Kelce]

Yeah, we want to bring it back, I guess.

[Jason Kelce]

Well, Joe wants it back.

[Travis Kelce]

All right, you got a. You got a. You got a shout out. You got a New Heights stamp of the week. You got a stamper.

[Jason Kelce]

I'll stay. I'll give Alec Pierce some love. He almost single handedly along with Joe Flacco had the Colts come back this week. They didn't quite get it done, but he had some long catches late. He's having a good year. Alec Pierce been having a real good year.

[Travis Kelce]

Having a good career so far. He's been doing his thing over there. Indy.

[Jason Kelce]

There we go.

[Travis Kelce]

All right, now who you going with? Who am I going with?

[Jason Kelce]

Yeah.

[Travis Kelce]

I'll give my stance my guy. Juju Smith Schuster. Hey, that's a good one niner man. He's out there balling right now.

[Jason Kelce]

He is. He is. It's a heck of a welcome back into the starting lineup.

[Travis Kelce]

Yes, sir.

[Jason Kelce]

And that does it for notam questions brought to you by the powerful backing of American Express.

[Travis Kelce]
