We start in Germany, where America finally got revenge for World War II by forcing them to watch the Panthers and Giants play football. Danny Dimes translates to Danny Deutschmark and his stock is currently sitting stacked up in a 1933 wheelbarrow. Chubba L. Ron Hubbard was reached the executive division of his career after signing a massive extension and running for a buck fifty and a score, the Giants defense put up the softest resistance since the French Army.

We come back stateside to Indianapolis where Bill's head coach Sean McDermottologist clogged all the pores on his defensive line. Joe Flacco the Owl couldn't fly straight and got smashed by the Bills super bowl window, throwing three picks on the day, Tyler Big mouth Billy Bass was giving the Anthony Soprano Richardson fever dreams that he should be back as a cold starter as Indy drops another one and no one circles the wagons like the Buffalo Bills. The Bills 30, the Colts 20.
Big Cat
Over to Kansas City, where the Broncos may have found their Neil diamond in the ruffians. As I saw his face now I'm a believer as Bo Nicks led the Broncos to two first half touchdown drives. Cortland Sutton About Mary had sticky hands on his touchdown and Vince Devon Bailey scored as well, telling the Broncos to lock it up. No, you lock it up. And it was locked up until the Chiefs went into superhero mode. Teenage Kansas City Turtles Leonardo blocks kicks and Patrick scores TDs as Chanel blocks the game winning kick keeping the Chiefs undefeated on the season at 9 0. Chiefs 16, Broncos 14 I wrote down the wrong team name there, Teege.

That was good ad liboom.

Thanks Teach.

We go down to Washington in our nation's capital where Jamarcus Russell Wilson has the Steelers leaning towards the top of their division as he found Pat Brianna Chicken Friarmouth for a touchdown making the quarterback look like the smallest man alive. Did you hear? They're calling what? They're calling Zach Bryan. They're calling him NDA youngboy. Oh shit, I heard about that. Jeremy McNickleback scored a touchdown and saw Zach Ertz looking like a rock star and get called short. Take a look at this photograph. Looks like a first down this catch. How the hell is that not a first down? The parallax angle's wrong. The Steelers 28, the Commanders 27 in.

That is week 10 fastest two minutes there's a reason we've never done a Mount Rushmore pickup trucks. And that's because for pardon my take, there's only one pickup truck, the Chevy Silverado. Why is that? Silverado is a partner. A partner you can depend on. We've all spent time driving and using the Silverado for all kinds of pardon my take jobs, adventures and other shenanigans. Silverado has been our ride across the country to the Super Bowl. Silverado helped us dig the biggest hole ever in the state of Ohio. Last year at Grit Week, Silverado helped us give fullbacks the recognition they deserve with the Low Man Award. And this year, Silverado was out west with us for our latest Grit Week. Silverado brings the grit too. Legendary grip paired with modern truck tech inside and out. Massive screens, up to eight cameras with 14 different views to help make driving, towing and parking all easier. We love the bold, blacked out look of the new Silverado HD trail boss.

We had the worst afternoon slate, I think, of all time, which we will get to. But we're gonna, we're gonna talk about some games, talk about some teams. The Sickos and perverts have lined up for this episode. I was convinced by. After the early slate, I was convinced that the Eagles and the jets would lose in the afternoon so that it would just be. Hank would be the sole winner on this show. The Eagles ended up winning easily, but we have misery to chase, to throw around.
Memes
Yeah.
Big Cat
What?
Memes
Big day for the couch, boys.
Hank
I'm in the wrong spot.
Big Cat
Oh yeah. Max supposed to be on the couch.
Memes
Winner's couch.
Big Cat
Yeah, the winner's couch. Okay. Should we get into the games though, boys?
Memes
Let's talk about it.
Big Cat
All right, let's get into it. So we started in Germany.
Memes
Did you wake up for it? Because I did.
Big Cat
Well, yeah, I Woke up at 6:30, so yeah, I was up.
Memes
Yeah, it was, it was a tough game to be a Giants fan.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
Now we talked about how the owners of the Giants, the Mira family, they told Brian Dabel that they weren't going to fire him. They made a public statement about that.
Big Cat
Yes.
Memes
And then we went back and we looked at the last two coaches that they've said that to. And those last two coaches were fired before the end of that season.
Big Cat
Correct.
Memes
I didn't think that they, I don't think that they should fire Dable, but today actually made me look like an idiot for saying that because it did look like a team that quit. Yeah, you could see it in a lot of the small things like the, the punt returner getting a personal foul after he caught the ball and then throwing a pun like an open handed punch.
Big Cat
Yeah, they're bad.
Memes
And then he goes to the sidelines and then he just sits there on the sidelines by himself without having like a coach come up to him and be like, hey dude, what the fuck are you doing? You're hurting the whole team. That's the dumbest thing you can do. That is. That's the mark of a. I'm gonna say poorly coached football.
Big Cat
Yeah, it is. So. So. Panthers 20, Giants 17. I, I want to talk about the Giants but I wanted to give the Panthers. They don't get anything. The Panthers are a sad organization. They've been a laughing stock for the last, like a true laughing stock for the last three years. David Tepper's completely put them in, in the dumpster and they finally have a winning streak for the first time since 2022. So I want to give them credit because Bryce Young, maybe not the numbers but the poise you can tell that he has gotten, he's more comfortable and you know, maybe sitting him for those few games Was huge for his development because we talked about on Friday, but the Giants were leading the league in sacks. They only sacked him once today. He was moving around. He was. You know, he extended some plays with his feet. He made some big throws. At the end of the game, I, like, maybe I'm back into believing in Bryce Young, but either way, it looks like he is getting better, which is something that you couldn't have said at the beginning of this season. Yeah.
Memes
So Bryce had a couple plays where in the past, he drops back, he feels pressure, and then you can see him say, oh, shit during a play, and then he panics and freaks out.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
And today he was, like, moving decisively.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
He wasn't stopping to think in the middle of plays and be like, oh, this is fucked up. He was, like, making that decision a half second sooner than he normally would. And he did look good. I thought he looked good in the first half. Next week, I believe. Let's see. I think they have a buy and then the Chiefs.
Big Cat
Yeah, they have a buy, but they could be.
Memes
That could be bad for them. But you won two in a row.
Big Cat
Two in a row. First time since week 14 in 2022.
Memes
And Bryce's. Bryce's trade value just skyrocketed.
Big Cat
It did. And Chuba Hubbard is awesome. He got signed to an extension, and then he came out and he delivered 153 yards in a touchdown. He was running all over them. The Panthers have, like, no weapons. Everyone's hurt. They traded Deontay Johnson and they found a way to win this game. And I know that it doesn't really mean anything because they're still bad, but it still means something in the fact that Bryce Young looked a little better. And like any little, like, glimmer of hope is. Is nice to be like, hey, maybe we're moving a little bit in the right direction. So I feel happy for Panthers fans, especially when you have to wake up early to watch that game. You don't want to watch a game where you lose. And they look like they were going to lose it until Tyrone Tracy fumbled in overtime. Which you should be happy if you're a Giants fan, because at this point, you should be tanking. You should be. Daniel Jones should not play another snap. He should not play another snap because he has. He has the member Russell Wilson last year. And there's Jimmy. Was it Jimmy Garner? No, it's Derek Carr a couple years ago, where if he gets injured, his money becomes guaranteed and you can cut him this year. And it's. You don't have to pay him any more money. And it's like a $22 million cap hit. You should not play him another down of football this year.
Memes
Well, let's embrace the bait, Big Cat, because you said that they should tank. They should be hoping for the lowest draft pick possible if you play now, if you play Drew Lock, Drew Lock's going to do some fuck shit.
Big Cat
He is. But.
Memes
But he might win you a couple of games that you might not win otherwise.
Big Cat
But part of tanking is also clearing your salary cap going forward. And you don't want to have. Have to pay Daniel Jones another dollar once you cut him after. I think it's the fifth day of the new league year.
Memes
The risk reward on playing Daniel Jones is, is it worth it to keep him in the game to increase draft value and to have a higher draft pick? Is that worth the risk of getting him injured and having to pay him more money and put you in cap?
Big Cat
Hell yes.
Memes
That's. It's a good question. That's up for debate.
Big Cat
I think you just roll the dice with Drew Lock. I also think as a Giants fan, you probably just don't want to deal with Daniel Jones anymore. He is so bad. He's. I tweeted during the game, he's breathtakingly bad because there were a couple plays. There was the one where he just threw one, I think it might have been to neighbors where he threw it like 20ft over his head and it was maybe a seven yard out. And then the flea flicker which was perfectly dialed up. Two wide open receivers and he somehow got sacked on that. And that's not even mentioning the interceptions in the red zone where the first one he got tipped, but it was tipped in a lot. Like, I think Jade McClany was directly in his face. And the second one, he couldn't have thrown a ball to a worse placement when they were trying to score. And he threw it on like all the way on Tyrone Tracy's back shoulder. He's so bad and he's so bad. And I have to give Daniel Jones a little bit of credit because somehow he has. He has made $108 million being as bad as he has been six years he's played in the NFL. He's 24 and 44 as a starting quarterback, you should tip your hat. Like, I don't know how he did it. Even the year that he was like, you know, the year that he was incredible, he wasn't that incredible. He was just hit. The bar was so low that they're like, oh, shit. He looks like he's building something.
Memes
Yeah. You do have to give him credit. He is an all time bag getter and he somehow he managed to convince everybody, like, okay, let's. Let's give him a little bit more time to develop. He's a time to develop King. So I don't think that that has any more Runway for him. I don't think that there's anybody out there saying, like, we still need to see what Daniel Jones can do. Let's give him time in the system.
Big Cat
And the craziest part about Daniel Jones is like, when he was picked out of Duke, everyone was like, that's a bad pick. And then it was like, he's bad. He's never at any point been like, oh, my God, he's an incredible quarterback. He deserves all this money. He's just been mediocre to bad his entire career and he's made $108 million. I tip my cap to him.
Memes
You know what? I want to tip my cap to the fans on draft night. That freaked out.
Big Cat
Yeah. Big Ev. Our guy, Big Ev.
Memes
Because there were. It was Big Ev at the front of it. I saw some other people that were shamed during the season where Daniel Jones didn't look that bad. There were people that were shamed. They brought them like on television. Do you remember that?
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
And they said, will you, Will you take back your draft night take? How bad do you feel right now? They got in their face with the camera and they try to convince them that they got gaslit that season. Those guys need justice.
Big Cat
Yeah, they do.
Memes
They should bring the people that interviewed them onto TV and be like, apologize to me now.
Big Cat
Yeah. Yeah. Tommy Smokes also said he might leave fan base if Daniel Jones gets drafted. That was on draft night. He did then come around and say he's the guy when he got his contract extension. But that, Listen, I trust your instinct on draft night should count. Like, everyone can be fooled. If you win some games, get to a playoffs. Can you find the big F video? Because he was. He. It was an all time video and he nailed it. Yeah. He deserves all the credit in the world.
Memes
That's the opposite of an old takes exposed. Yeah, these people were right. And the people that old takes expose them. They got the old takes now.
Big Cat
Yeah. Right. So it's. I mean, it's just. It's. Oh, here's. Here's Big F. This is the. This is the moment that he gets drafted. Oh, my God, this is such a great video.
Memes
Why did you do that? You're so stupid. Gentlemen.
Big Cat
What are you doing? What are you doing? Josh Allen's gonna be in a gold jacket.
Memes
No, I mean, he, yes, yes, he's right. This, this is a correct man. And we told him he was wrong.
Big Cat
Oh, man, that's so brutal.
Memes
You know what I think was baked into that take too, is the fact that he knew that Daniel Jones was built in a laboratory for the Mara family to fall in love with.
Big Cat
Yes.
Memes
Right.
Big Cat
Yes.
Memes
And he knew. He somehow saw the future of Nice enough guy. Very soft spoken, looks kind of like a Manning.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
And if he's just average to below average, they would throw a bag at him and he, you have to deal with him now for six years.
Big Cat
He's built for Wall Street. By the way, that was Josh Allen's. Josh Hines Allen, that big Ev was talking about. Because Josh Allen was drafted in the draft before. Maybe it was 2017. Maybe. Yeah, yeah. So that wasn't still bad, but it wasn't as egregious. But it's very funny because all these guys were right, like the, they were exactly right. And that clip is so perfect because he's screaming and in the background it's like he was rated a zero star recruit and he comes from a very athletic family. We should check if those are the first lines out of your mouth when you get drafted. That's a bad, bad thing.
Memes
His mom is way faster than he is. So just wait. He might, he might grow into it. We should put out a graphic that says something about how like, Daniel Jones drafted by the Giants while Josh Allen's still on the board.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
And then in like very small letters at the bottom say Jaguars.
Big Cat
Yeah. Well, it goes to, I mean, I've had this take for a long time and there's very rare exceptions, but quarterbacks that are average, just average in college don't usually become superstars. You know, like they, you gotta have at least some flash somewhere in college to then be like, oh, my God, they're gonna become something great. Most of the time. A guy who's just averaging college, it just stays average.
Memes
Real swag is no swag, though.
Big Cat
Yeah, it's, it's, it's a disaster, though. I, I, I feel bad for Giants fans. $108 million and the fact that you paid him and it cost you Saquon Barkley. That's the double whammy. It's a double whammy. But yeah, you gotta, I think it has to be over. I think Dable has to bench him. It's the bye Week. Just be like, we can't get him injured and cost us more Cap. If like Dable should do that as a sign to be like I. Because you said that I'm here for the long term. This is what the long term should, should, should do. You know what I mean? Like, we should keep. We should, we should sit him so we don't have to pay him if.
Memes
He gets injured and then force them to make their decision right now.
Big Cat
Right.
Memes
Based off that.
Big Cat
Yeah. And so. And they are in Tankathon. I think they're number two right now. So they could get a quarterback.
Memes
Good spot.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
Did you see what I see though, on the sidelines? Brian D. It looks like he's numb to it.
Big Cat
Yeah. Oh yeah.
Memes
It looks like every time they make just a boneheaded decision, he's. The camera's on him and he's just staring into the abyss.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
The thousand yard stare. He doesn't even, he doesn't get mad anymore.
Big Cat
No.
Memes
He's like, I've seen it all. Nothing's going to change.
Big Cat
I'm just here so I don't get fined.
Memes
Yeah.
Big Cat
Kind of thing. Yeah. No, it's a, it's a bad vibe for him and it's a, it's a bad scene for Giants fans. I feel bad for Giants fans. It's. It doesn't feel like any fun. And you had to wake up early to watch this game and everything, you know, it just. You're basically restarting again, which is a shitty feeling. I know it all too well. A couple other notes from this game. Sean Hockley, a little bit of a show off. He did the. Did you guys see. He did a penalty in German. His dad did that in Mexico City in 2005. So it's kind of like passing the torch of the hockey. And then we also had. Roger Goodell said that his World Domination tour is just getting started because he announced he's planning on doing eight games next year internationally. London, Spain, Brazil, Mexico City, Germany and possibly Ireland.
Memes
So I think this is Goodell shooting, shooting his fan base in the foot on this one. There's a lot of hungover NFL fans. We don't want to wake up that early in the morning.
Big Cat
I said it.
Memes
He doesn't respect hangovers.
Big Cat
I've said it. The European game is fun if it's two times a year. That's a fun thing. It's a, it's a cool thing. Oh, oh, cool. Sunday, we gotta, we gotta eat. If it's every week, which it feels like it's Too much. It's too much. And it's also like the inverse of, like, I don't want them to send really good games. I want them to send the Giants and the Panthers because I don't want to have. I don't want to have to have it be like Ravens and Bengals international. Yeah.
Memes
Don't make it a game that means something.
Big Cat
Right. So. So it's kind of a catch 22 where it's like, I. I don't really. You're. You're making us watch this game. Cause we do. We are owned by the nf. Our brains are owned by the NFL. I watched the majority of this game and I just stopped doing it. Put it on Sunday sacred. Don't do this.
Memes
Like, if you're going to have a game that you need to be drunk to watch, don't have it. Start when it's too early to be drunk.
Big Cat
Yeah, yeah, I agree. The Tyrone Tracy is good, minus the fumble, which could have helped him.
Memes
Fumble was bad.
Big Cat
But this is what to look at.
Memes
But you know what? I liked how he reacted to it.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
Because he went to the sidelines, it looked like he was crying. He was really upset. And he still feels something. Yeah, he cares.
Big Cat
He cares a lot. He cares a lot.
Memes
Just don't trade him away.
Big Cat
We also had Dexter Lawrence, I think afterwards they said, like, is Dable's message getting through? And he said, yes. We just have to comprehend it better.
Memes
Got it, got it. So it's on us. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I also liked. He was talking about schnitzel and he couldn't pronounce it. And he was like, I like. And he told the. The reporters, he was like, you guys are gonna make fun of me for how I say this. I like schitzel. Yeah, it was delicious. And then I just couldn't stop thinking about Xavier Leggett saying the word schnitzel. Yeah, schnitzel.
Big Cat
Schnitzel.
Memes
Schnitzel.
Big Cat
Yeah. I mean, all the shots of the German beer holes, that look kind of fun. I mean, they do. They wear lederhosen all the time. September, right?
Memes
It's in. Yeah. Like late September.
Big Cat
So. But do they just dress up like that all the time to go to the beer hall?
Memes
That's their lingerie.
Big Cat
Got it.
Memes
Crotchless lederhosen.
Big Cat
Got it. Yeah. Cuz they were showing. I was like, what's going on here? But yeah.
Memes
A lot of pretzels in the stands.
Big Cat
Yeah. Pretzels in the stands. Yeah. They were. They sung. Did they sing Country Roads again?
Memes
They say, I think Machine Gun Kelly sang Country Roads.
Big Cat
So they just think that we just all walk around singing Country Roads, which I guess we do. There was a more appropriate for be Wagon Wheel.
Hank
Yeah.
Memes
There was a very funny part when they sang Sweet Caroline in the middle of a play.
Big Cat
Yeah, it was.
Memes
It was an interception or a turnover, I think. So there's a big play, but the whole crowd didn't care because they're like, hey, Sweet Caroline's on.
Big Cat
Yeah, we're playing this. Yeah. So, yeah. Good job, Germany. I guess you. I mean, good job, Panthers. That's really all that matters. Good job, Panthers. First year head coach. You got to try to win a couple games. They might win a couple more. And it's. It's good to not be the worst. You can't just tank every single year.
Memes
And honestly, if I'm a Panthers fan watching this game, I'm. I'm a little bit excited about Bryce Young.
Big Cat
Like you could tell yourself that maybe some.
Memes
I mean, listen, it's probably the best that he's looked in terms of decision making since he was in college.
Big Cat
And it's also like, yeah, I get it. If you have a top draft pick and you could take another quarterback, you should. But he's also the cheapest he'll ever be. Is right now. Yeah, Well, I guess. No, he could definitely be cheaper.
Memes
Second contract.
Big Cat
Yeah, he could definitely be cheaper now that I'm thinking about it. But you're not paying him a lot of money right now.
Memes
Do you think if the Panthers and there's a whole bunch of reasons that go into like the CBA and when you are and are not allowed to extend a quarterback. If it was possible and the Panthers offered Bryce young like a four year extension at $1.8 million a year right now, do you think he would take it?
Big Cat
Probably not.
Memes
I'm saying if the fifth year option was not a thing.
Big Cat
Probably not.
Memes
You don't think so?
Big Cat
No, I think he probably thinks. I mean, Bryce bet on most backup quarterbacks. Yeah. Could get a little more than that.
Memes
Yeah.
Big Cat
Yeah. He might have a. Maybe if you, if you made it four years, 5 million a year, I think he would maybe take.
Memes
He'd be interested.
Big Cat
Yeah. And also, I mean, the Panthers like that you're already a bad team. The flight back from Germany's got to suck. Sucks a lot less. Yeah. Sucks a lot less. Giants flight sucks a lot more. Yeah.
Memes
They're going to be eating sad Stroop waffles.
Big Cat
What does Daniel Jones do? Is he. He kind of was Built to be a backup, wasn't he?
Memes
Well, he looks like a generic create a backup quarterback.
Big Cat
Right?
Memes
And even his name on. On like Nintendo Wii, he's like a me backup quarterback. His name, everything about him, his style of play, he seems like a backup. But the fact that he was drafted so early, sometimes it's hard for those guys to become backups.
Big Cat
How. How much do you think Daniel Jones o Cutcliffe for getting drafted that high and just basically being able to survive six years in the NFL being terrible because that, that I feel like was the big sticking point for him getting drafted because Cutcliffe and like the Mannings, everyone's like, you gotta trust this guy. I feel like that was a, you know, obviously throw aside the super athletic family. Which. What quarterback? What. What number one first round quarterback doesn't have a super athletic. I'm trying to think that his.
Memes
Trevor Lawrence's brother, Trevor Lawrence, I bet.
Big Cat
You if he wanted to, he could be. He probably could show up and be a baller.
Memes
I think he just was probably introduced to marijuana at the age of like 14.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
He was like, this is cool.
Big Cat
Yeah. Someone gave him a Rage Against Machine cd. Yeah, I'm done with sports. But yeah, Daniel Jones, David Cutcliffe, good job. You got him. Six years, $108 million.
Memes
He probably had like one good day at the Manning Passing Academy.
Big Cat
Probably just called. The Merritt family was like. And called. David Gettleman was like, hey, you remember Eli? I got one. I got number two for you. He is.
Memes
He showed up early for the first day of intermediate drills at Manning Passing Academy and he was just set from that point on.
Big Cat
Yeah. Okay. The best game in the early slate. Steelers 28, Commanders 27. PFT. I'll let you go whatever direction you want to go with this. I feel like you guys, I mean, you almost won that game.
Memes
I think this was a. This was a good game for me because I was. I didn't want to say it out loud, but when we got up 10 points, I was. I did the emojis, I said the thinking emoji and then the soup emoji, but I didn't say it. It's probably good for me to lose.
Big Cat
This game around you a little.
Memes
I would have. I would have declared that the commanders could win the super bowl on this show. And I don't think that that's realistic. Yeah, I think that there's a lot of holes in the secondary. I think Marshawn Lattimore, when we get him back, it's going to make a difference. But we Got holes at receiver too. I think we had like six drops today. Ton of drops, some boneheaded mistakes. Overall, I don't think we played that poorly, but we're just not a complete team yet. And yeah, it's good for me. I'm on to Philadelphia right now. I'm not, I'm not upset. Although the narrative will start. I think it already has started, that we can't beat a good team, but we do have two great losses to the Steelers and the Ravens. Yeah, excellent losses. Yeah, those are, I'd say those, those losses probably even better than wins also.
PFT Commenter
Talk right here. For sure.
Memes
Thanks, Max.
Big Cat
It also being sarcastic. Yeah, he was being very sarcastic. I also feel like if you, if you said it would take all the way to week 10 for Jaden Daniels to have like not a MVP level game. Yeah, that would be a deal you would take in a heartbeat.
Memes
He didn't do a lot with his feet today.
Big Cat
I thought the Steelers did a good job of keeping him in the pocket.
Memes
What I took away from this is the Steelers defense is awesome. Yeah, they're really good. Everything that, that the commanders had to do today was very, very difficult. Jaden, I thought threw the ball pretty well, had a lot of drops, but I think he threw the ball well, didn't run at all basically. And we kept TJ relatively in check, which was nice.
Big Cat
Yeah. The only thing I would say negatively about the Commander's offense, and it's something they'll just get better at, is that they only had two first downs in the fourth quarter, which is like, that's, you know, that's when you got to salt the game away. Yeah.
Memes
And then a dumb ass mistake at the end by, by Newton.
Big Cat
Nobody.
Memes
Nobody. I've never seen a player actually fall for that hard count trick in the last six years.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
Except maybe to Aaron Rodgers.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
Occasionally Aaron will get you.
Big Cat
But that was insane. Like the whole world knows that that's what they're doing.
Memes
Yeah.
Big Cat
And then he jumped almost instantly. It wasn't even like 5 seconds left in the play clock. It was like 14 seconds. I said.
Memes
When they, when they went out on the field and looked like Tomlin was going to go for it, I said don't jump.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
Because that's. Tomlin doesn't want to go for this.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
Tomlin would much, much rather punt him.
Big Cat
Well, he did say that. He said we'll never know if he was going to go for it because, you know, I'm a degenerate.
Memes
That's true.
Big Cat
Which I don't Even know what that means.
Memes
A degenerate.
Big Cat
What I don't know. Tomlin was. Was in his bag because he said. He also said. I think he was talking about the Ravens upcoming game. He said, they're a hot group. We want to be the firemen.
Memes
Yep.
Big Cat
And then also on the fake punt, which was the coolest fake punt and should have worked, but they just dropped the ball. He just said, I'll do it again.
Memes
Yeah, it should have worked. Danny Smith, the special teams coordinator for the Steelers all time gum guy.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
I think he is the only person that's on the gum. Mount Rushmore.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
He's always got like six, seven pieces. He also looked like he got into a fight before the game. Do you see that? Yeah, he had like three knuckle marks on the side of his head, but that was. It was a good call. Didn't work out. Also credit to Russell Wilson because I think Russell Wilson and Pickens played awesome. The catch that Pickens had in the first quarter.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
Unreal. And then Pickens, you get the good Pickens with the insane Pickens.
Big Cat
He was maybe the most insane he's ever been.
Memes
This is why I love watching George Pickens play football, because you don't know what he's going to do on any given play. On the interception, he gets up and then he throws. I think that was San Restrill. I threw him to the ground.
Big Cat
He went full ufc.
Memes
Just ignores the ball carrier. And then he goes down onto his neck like he's gonna bite him like he's a vampire and rip his throat out.
Big Cat
And there was. And there was also the one play where it was. It was basically he caught the ball on the sideline and there was maybe five commanders and he was ready to fight each and every one of them at the same time.
Memes
Yeah, he's like.
Big Cat
He just turned up field and just started pushing people and was like, fuck you guys. Yeah, this just like ready to take on the whole commander's defense.
Memes
He tried to do a stiff arm after he was already while jumping.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
If you know anything about physics, you want to have your feet planted when you're doing. George doesn't care.
Big Cat
No.
Memes
Just know about physics.
Big Cat
Yeah. And he has been completely unlocked by Russell Wilson. The Steelers offense looked bad in the middle part of the game. And then, I mean, Mike Williams, he had nine snaps all game and he just got traded and he makes the winning touchdown catch. And Russell Wilson made the plays when he had to. So, yeah, the Steelers are really, really good. And Mike Tomlin is one of the best coaches. I told this to Jerry, and this goes for all Steelers fans. I don't ever want to hear mediocre Mike again. Mike Tomlin is a really fucking good head coach. I would kill for Mike Tomlin as my head coach. What he does in intangibles is insane. He gets the most out of everyone all the time.
Memes
Yeah. Including some of his psychotic players that he's had over the years.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
And I. I do fully believe that Mike Tomlin enjoys having one guy on the team like that.
Big Cat
Right.
Memes
I think that's part of what he loves about coaching, is having one guy that will absolutely wreck you mentally.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
And then figuring out a way to harness that guy's energy.
Big Cat
And he's just. Just time and time again, he. He. We went through the stats. It's another win against a rookie quarterback. Another win off the buy. Another win is a road dog. Like, this is just Mike Tomlin. This is what he does. He's just. He. It's. It's so consistent. I know that Steelers fans are like, oh, he hasn't won a playoff game in six years. Okay. There's a lot of franchises that have not been to the playoffs in that time. And. And, like, you just don't. I. Mike Tomlin's just such a good head coach. He's. He just. He. He. You feel like when you go into a game with Mike Tomlin, there's a chance, you know, like, he's going to get the guys to a place where they can overcome maybe some talent deficiencies and win games. Yeah.
Memes
But. Do you know what I'm saying? Like, I'm. I don't wish that we had. I wish that we had won the game.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
It would be nice to win the game and look at the records and say, okay, we're still up on the Eagles, but I think it might be good for me mentally to keep myself from becoming too delusional. Like, this made me a little more illusional.
Big Cat
Yeah. Brought you back down to earth. I'm Max.
Memes
Maximum illusional.
Big Cat
Max has his hand raised.
PFT Commenter
I think Jaden Daniel did not have.
Big Cat
I thought he.
Memes
I didn't. Don't think that.
Hank
He played for 34.
PFT Commenter
68 quarterback rating.
Memes
I think he had six drops, though.
Hank
So you just make that number up.
PFT Commenter
I'm looking at the stats right now.
Memes
There were a lot of drops.
PFT Commenter
Oh, the drops.
Big Cat
Yeah.
PFT Commenter
I think it's okay to say that, like, when he doesn't have a great game.
Memes
I don't know. He didn't play his best game for sure. I Wouldn't say that he played poorly.
PFT Commenter
17 for 34. 68. Quarterback rating, lost the game.
Memes
I know, but, Max, if you watch the film, you a film watcher.
PFT Commenter
I. I'm. I'm. I'm a numbers looker.
Memes
I'm gonna.
Big Cat
I'm a numbers looker.
Memes
I'm gonna put up a report and I'm gonna see how many. How many drops he had.
Hank
I'm gonna think about it this way.
Memes
Make a compilation of them.
Hank
Records don't matter in the playoffs. It only matters the game in front of you. That was a playoff game and you guys lost and your quarterback didn't play that well.
Memes
So we're 0 for 2 in playoff games this year.
Hank
Like, if you're gonna keep up with this facade of being a really good team, like, you have to, like, this is a playoff game. You could not be like, Jane played pretty good like that. That doesn't work.
Memes
Okay, all right, I'll take that. I'll take that under advisement. That's fair. I need to learn how to win, and part of learning how to win is learning how to lose. Yeah, right.
Hank
Yeah, it is.
Memes
Like, it's. You know what? This doesn't live up to my expectations.
Hank
You're going to be a winner. You got to be mad at losses.
Memes
Jaden, this will probably be.
Hank
That was a game that slipped through your crack.
Big Cat
I notice. I'm not saying anything because I would suck a dick for that stat line.
Memes
This will probably be Jaden's worst, least deserving Pepsi rookie of the week award. When all said and done.
Hank
I don't think he's getting.
PFT Commenter
I don't think he's getting the.
Big Cat
Well, PFT stuffs the ballot. That's what he's been doing. He's been voting a million times every.
PFT Commenter
Year he talks about it, and he also talks about it.
Memes
Vote early, vote often.
Big Cat
Yeah. He's won weeks where it's not even been close.
PFT Commenter
That's fair. That's fair.
Big Cat
Yeah.
PFT Commenter
I just feel like the listeners deserve to hear an opposing opinion towards Jaden Daniels game.
Memes
Max, I will agree with you that this was reminder.
Big Cat
They are division rivals. That's why Max.
Memes
Yep. But, Max, thank you for thinking of the listeners. I appreciate that.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Hank
Listeners want you on the couch and you're back in the.
Big Cat
That's true. And Pug. Yeah, President Pug did say.
Memes
That's a good point. You're dividing. Defying an executive order right now. Max, that's not.
Big Cat
You could go to jail. You could go to.
PFT Commenter
Jail's not even here.
Memes
Oh, so because he's not here, is.
Big Cat
He on his way?
Memes
Character is who you are when no one's watching.
Big Cat
That's facts. That's big facts.
Memes
I was on the wall of my weight room in high school.
Big Cat
That's big facts.
Memes
I took it to heart. Yeah. Max, I will give this to you. Jaden probably had his worst game.
Big Cat
That's what I'm saying.
Memes
It's week 10, though.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
Yeah, probably. I'm trying to think of when the last. Probably his worst game since week one.
PFT Commenter
Okay.
Memes
Against the Buccaneers.
Big Cat
Yeah. But.
Memes
But I do think it's fair to go back and watch the throws and the drops that he had, because I think that would add like 70 yards to it, 60 yards to it, and there were a bunch of them. But I'm a winner, so I say the standard has to be better than the standard is the standard.
PFT Commenter
There we go.
Memes
It needs to be higher.
Big Cat
Saying Thursday night. Thursday night is going to be a hell of a game.
Memes
The towels didn't work, by the way.
Big Cat
Towels.
Memes
There were a ton of. Ton of Pittsburgh Steelers fans there.
Big Cat
Are you guys.
Hank
I also gotta just say, like, I think you're wearing one of your most ridiculous outfits of all time.
PFT Commenter
I didn't. I didn't want to pile on, but I also was thinking they're being mean to you.
Big Cat
Pft.
PFT Commenter
I don't like yellow shades.
Hank
I'm not piling on at all. I'm just. I've just been looking at you. I just can't figure any of it out.
Memes
These are my sad shades that I have on.
Big Cat
I don't think there's anything that PFD could wear that would make me be.
Memes
Like, whoa, what if I came in here?
Hank
Combination, maybe in a suit.
Memes
Yeah, I. You know what? I'll be honest with you. I just put the sweater on because it was the closest that I had to me. I didn't think about the matching. It was cold in here. It's freezing in the studio in the barstool store. Max turned the air conditioning down. Okay. Whatever. Cold. I'm not happy. I'm not happy with the loss.
Big Cat
Thursday night's going to be a huge game for the division also. I mean, this is a huge game for the division. I also feel like. Pft noticing. I've been noticing it from afar because I have nothing to do with the NFC East. Your wish before the season. Max is definitely bothered by the commander. Oh, yeah, you are. He. You have accomplished that feat where he's. He is looking at you as a real rival now.
Memes
Yeah, I'm starting to hear from Philly fans out there a lot.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
I'm starting to get like a.
Big Cat
And he's rooting against you, like, hard one.
Memes
Like. Of what?
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
What you deal with, Hank. I'm getting like 1% of the Philly hate. Yeah. But, yeah, this is exactly what I wanted. I wanted you to care.
Big Cat
And he does.
PFT Commenter
Yeah. I mean, it's a. It is as clear of a two team race for the NFC east as you could possibly have.
Big Cat
Yeah. As there's ever been. Yeah. Where's the game on Thursday and whose.
Hank
Line is it anyway?
Memes
I'm going to say draftkings.
Big Cat
Whose birds.
Memes
Anyway, by four.
Big Cat
I was going to say four as well.
Hank
It is eagles minus three.
Big Cat
Oh. Oh.
Hank
I will be taking the commander's money line. 50.
Memes
Thank you, Hank.
Big Cat
Should I take the Eagles for. So it's a split house.
PFT Commenter
I mean, Hank's just a troll. He's only.
Big Cat
You knew he was going to do that. Although Hank had the Steelers today. Yeah.
PFT Commenter
He also had the Cowboys.
Hank
That was a good pick.
PFT Commenter
Right.
Big Cat
He basically just takes whoever our teams.
Memes
Yeah.
Big Cat
No matter what.
PFT Commenter
And he. He likes to see my pain way more than PFT's pain. So that's why.
Memes
Yeah, that's true.
Big Cat
That's fast.
Hank
Very true.
Big Cat
Yeah. That's more.
Memes
Who'd you have in Cardinals and Jets?
Hank
I had the Cardinals.
Memes
Okay. Interesting.
Hank
Well, that was big Hat made me.
Big Cat
I mean, I was right that it was like one. Like we're gonna just have one of those Mondays where the sickos and perverts all line up to listen to this shit. Okay.
Memes
I would have loved to get to 8 and 2. 8 and 2 would have looked awesome.
Big Cat
8 and 2 is a serious, serious record.
Memes
You got to pay attention to an 8 and 2.
Big Cat
8 and 2 is. Yeah. 8 and 2 is a top five team. Yeah. No matter. Pretty much no matter what the season or what the situation. 8 and 2 is like, whoa.
Memes
This is a cool my jets weekend.
Big Cat
Yeah. Okay, next up, Chiefs 16, Broncos 14. The Chiefs keep getting away with it. It's incredible. The Chiefs should have lost this game. Well, actually, no, I shouldn't say should have lost because Leo Chanel Badger made an incredible play to block the field goal that would have won the game for the Broncos. But this was a game where if you're the Broncos, it is like in two parts. The most demoralizing loss because you had the win and then also a really good, not moral victory, but just a, hey, we're not as bad as we. We looked against the Ravens. We can Hang with these guys.
Memes
If you're, if you're a Chief's opponent and I think that they've now won nine games in a row where they're down by seven points or more, which is crazy. That's a crazy stat. If you're one of their opponents, would you rather have the most heartbreaking loss against the Chiefs so that your loss to them stands out and you're like, hey, you remember what a good fight that team gave you or would you just have like a run of the mill type, you know, eight point comeback that they had where nothing super heartbreaking happens at the very end?
Big Cat
Probably nothing super heartbreaking because this one, I mean this one, if you had gone into this game and you're a Broncos fan and you said the Chiefs were going to go 1 for 4 in the red zone scoring touchdowns, that Bo Nicks was not going to throw any interceptions and the Chiefs would weirdly struggle to run the ball, you'd be like, shit, we got a chance here. We're going to win this game. And Bo Nicks, like he didn't, he didn't make any mistakes. He had two first half like great touchdown drives. And even like the Broncos defense standing up at the end making the Chiefs kick a field goal where you have the chance to potentially win the game. And Bonix driving down the 13 plays 43 yards to end the game. He put them in the perfect spot. And the Chiefs just keep getting away with it.
Memes
Yeah, they're going to, this is, it's going to be the same episode week after week after week. If you're, if you're watching a Chiefs game and you're a fan of their opponent, that's like watching Scooby Doo and being a fan of an old guy that likes to dress up like a ghost. Yeah, like, oh, I think they fuck. They did it again.
Big Cat
They did it again. They did it again. And the Broncos defense was all over Patrick Mahomes. They sacked him four times. It felt like he was under pressure nonstop. They're blitz, they were doing creative blitzes. They were just all in his face. It had all the makings of the Chiefs losing a game like that, like that's, that was a Chief's loss until it wasn't. And the Chiefs are now the first team to win 15 straight games since the packers won 19 in a row in 2010, 2011 season. So you know when they won the super bowl and then started out hot, they just 71 possession game games this year they're undefeated still. They have the lowest Point differential for an undefeated team. 9 and oh, but it doesn't matter because even if you could, even if you want to be one of those devil's advocate and be like, oh, well, the Chiefs are different. They're not like they're just barely winning these games. It doesn't fucking matter. They're going to win the Super Bowl.
Memes
You know how we've had the conversation.
Big Cat
This is what they do.
Memes
We've had the conversation about Andy Reid versus Belichick because Andy Reid's stacking up wins now to the point where at some point he could pass him. We already having the conversation about Tom Brady, Patrick Mahomes. If these Chiefs go undefeated and they win the Super Bowl. Oh, yeah, that would pretty much seal the deal for which dynasty is more impressive, right?
Big Cat
It would.
Hank
It would definitely be one of the Patriots dynasties.
Memes
One of the three.
Hank
Yeah.
Memes
Would it be the top dynasty, though? It would be the top dynasty.
Hank
Top dynasty, not top organization yet.
Memes
Gotcha.
Hank
It would be undefeated three in a row. There's like, you can't really take anything away from.
Memes
It'd be best dynasty chiefs second place patriots in the late 2000s. And then what would be third place patriots early 2000s. Early 2000s. And then fourth place would be Patriots late.
Hank
Patriots only had. Patriots had two.
Big Cat
Two dynasties. Tom Brady had an extra like a AD on top extension of the dynasty with the Bucks. A personal dynasty. Yet Andy Reid is now 39 wins away from Bill Belichick.
Memes
Yeah.
Big Cat
So that's. I mean, if they keep. If they keep winning how they're winning, that's four or five more years. I mean, I think Belichick will coach again, but that's reasonably five more years if they win 10 to 12 games at a clip. And right now I don't. Next week they play the Bills. If the Chiefs beat the Bills, the one seeds wrapped up. Yeah, I don't know what would like because it would be head to head Ravens and I guess the Steelers could be in the mix there, but it would be head to head against the Ravens and the Bills wins and they would be. They would have zero losses and the Bills and the Ravens would each have three. So I don't know, like it would be hard for them to fuck that up. It'd be pretty hard for the Chiefs to fuck that up.
Memes
So the Chiefs are now nine and oh, you know they do play the Steelers.
Big Cat
So that is week 17.
Memes
So they're nine and oh, you know what their preseason win total was in Vegas?
Big Cat
Probably 11 and a half.
Memes
11 and a half.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
Easiest money in the world.
Big Cat
Yeah. Yeah.
Memes
Easy.
Big Cat
We're gonna walk to it.
Memes
We all should have seen this coming.
Big Cat
Yeah. And again, I don't even care if they've been impressive, because it doesn't matter. They have a complete football team. That's the thing. It's like. Like the. I guess the only thing that. Like the. The injuries. Did Xavier Worthy get banged up again today? I think it was because I think Patrick Holmes might have got another wide receiver hurt because he kind of overthrew him and he got hurt, I think, going to the sideline. But, yeah, I like it. They'll. They'll be fine, though. I'm sure. I'm sure Rashid Rice will probably somehow come back. I don't know what his exact timetable is, but why wouldn't he come back? Did he tear his acl?
Memes
No, I don't think so. Pcl?
Big Cat
Yeah, he'll probably be back, and he'll probably be like, oh, Rashid Rice hasn't played any games. Oh, he's going to play in this first round of the playoffs and he's going to get like 100 yards. Like, oh, no, no problem. Yeah, they're just really, really good. And the Broncos, I feel bad for them, but at least you know that you can hang and you're building something. Because last week was bad. Last week was the Broncos or Frauds. This week, I don't like. That was a loss. And I do not think the Bronx. I think the Broncos are a good football team. Building something, you think?
Memes
Best loss of the week.
Big Cat
Best loss of the week. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, definitely. Bucks. We will get to the Bucks. Bucks had a pretty good loss, too.
Memes
Yeah.
Big Cat
Yeah. Bucks keep having good losses. Okay. Anything else for this game? I don't think I have anything else on my. Oh, yeah, Audrey. Estimate. He's. He looked good. Notre Dame power back. I think he's a. Is he a Roback athlete? Was he a Roebuck athlete last year? I feel like I did. I said his name a bunch for those ads. May his body armor shout out. Roger Castime.
Memes
Estimate.
Big Cat
Okay. Patriots 19, bears three. Henry. Yeah, I mean, I knew it was. I had a feeling that this could happen, so it didn't hurt as much. I think you wanted more pain. You said it on Friday. You wanted more pain out of me, but I had already kind of quit. Everything's a disaster. The Bears are a joke of an organization. Caleb Williams looks really, really bad. Shane Waldron's a joke. Matt Eberflusse needs to get fired. They're just as bad as there's been some really bad Bears offenses, they have somehow reached a new low. That I said during the game, I was like, if you, instead of waterboarding in Guantanamo, if you just made a terrorist watched the Bears offense on repeat, they would tell every secret they've ever had. That's how bad we are. And I mean, the numbers are insane. That we had one drive longer than 21 yards. We had one play longer than 12 yards. The Patriots going into this game had 16 sacks on the season. They sacked Caleb Williams nine times today. Caleb Williams now second most all time through 10 weeks. The last three games, they have 34 possessions, 27 points. They've been outscored 66, 27 since the bye week. They started the season or started this game with field position on the Patriots 48, the Bears 40, the Bears 48. And they got zero points out of it. It is one of the worst teams, if not worst teams in football.
Memes
How many drives in a row has it been now without a touchdown?
Big Cat
A million?
Memes
Is it like 23?
Big Cat
A trillion?
Memes
And it's a lot of drives.
Big Cat
It's all bad. And it's. And, and listen, I. I'm. I am an optimist at heart, so I'll be like, maybe Caleb Williams will turn it around with a new coaching staff. But right now it's. He's by far the worst rookie and nothing works and he looks completely lost and everything sucks and everyone was right and I was wrong and I'm stupid and it sucks. I don't know what else to say. I know people are going to be like, you have to admit, I admit everything, that I've been wrong about everything and everything is terrible and it's just back in the same spot. And I. I went on Tankathon today during the game. I have not been on Tankathon at all this year. And I was excited to not be on Tankathon. I was looking at offensive linemen on Tankathon in the middle of the third quarter. This game was so, so bad. The Bears are so, so, so bad. And Matty Berflu should be fired tomorrow, and it won't fix. Listen, Matty Berflusse and Shane Waldron deserve blame, but I'm not saying it's all on them. The offensive line is horrendous. Ryan Poles should have done a better job with the offensive line. And Caleb Williams has looked really, really bad. So it's a collective effort, but you can't fire Caleb Williams, but you can fire the coach and the coach stinks. So make Us feel better for a day, and nothing will change.
Hank
I don't really have anything else to say.
Big Cat
I feel bad.
Hank
I. I legitimately feel bad. Chicago.
Big Cat
No, you don't. Don't feel bad, dude.
Hank
No, I. I've said it a bunch of times. Like, I don't. There's no rivalry with me and the Bears. I like, you know, people from Chicago. It's a great sports town. There's a lot of excitement all summer long. Everyone I talked to is like, bears, Bears, Bears, Bears, Bears. And then to see how the season gone is is stunning. I actually, at the beginning of the year, if you said that not only would the Patriots dominate the Bears, it wouldn't even be a surprise. Like, it wasn't even.
Big Cat
No, that's.
Hank
Everyone. All the other Bears fans that were in the gambling cave were also basically dejected before the game even started. And when they lost, they expected it, and they. It was just. They. They rolled over without even a fight.
Memes
It's sick having a team that you know is going to disappoint you and still every day, making. Every week you make an appointment to sit down on a couch and watch them disappoint you to make you angrier.
Big Cat
And we play the packers next week. I. Yeah, I mean, I think I actually should apologize to you, Hank, because I probably stole a little of the joy out of this for you because I was realistic going into this game where I was like, I think this team might have quit, and there's a good possibility that we lose in a very ugly fashion. I was hoping I was wrong, but I. When we talked about. On Friday, when we talked about it this morning, I definitely. This was on the table for outcomes for today. It was worse than I imagined in terms of how it looked. But I absolutely walked in this game being like, we could 100% lose it, and we probably will lose it because they've quit.
Hank
Yeah, it was really ugly. Their. Their offense was horrendous. One of the worst I've seen ever.
Big Cat
And it was. It's like the worst combo of.
Hank
It's got to be the coaches. I like. You can't have the weapons.
Big Cat
I.
Hank
They don't have the offensive line?
Big Cat
Well, no. The offensive line is terrible. I don't think anyone gets schemed open and Caleb misses every throw. Add that altogether, and it's just like the worst possible outcome you can get.
Memes
What are the percentages that they beat the Packers?
Big Cat
Zero.
Memes
Is it zero? It's not one.
Big Cat
Zero. Zero. I don't have a winning team that I root for. I. All. Every single team I root for is a loser. I haven't won a football game in three weeks. Four weeks. That's college and NFL. I gotta play Oregon in college and the packers in NFL. I'm gonna lose. We should. We. I wonder if draftkings would do that. Combined point spread. Did I lose by. I would set the line at 33. 34. 34 and a half actually. No. That's way low. 44 and a half combined loss next weekend. I don't know what else to say.
PFT Commenter
What do you think the Packers Bears line is going to be?
Big Cat
Let's guess it.
Memes
Where's the game?
Big Cat
Whose lines anyway? Is it at Soldier field? Packers minus eight.
PFT Commenter
No way.
Big Cat
No.
Memes
Six and a half.
Big Cat
Should be 1450.
Hank
Hit it on the head. Packers minus.
Big Cat
That's free money. If you want to. If you want to take the packers, that's free. That's. But that's also because they don't know if Jordan loves playing. They will be eight if Jordan loves play. Everyone's going to bet the Packers.
Memes
Yeah. Doesn't that make you excited?
Big Cat
No.
Memes
That should make you a team is.
Big Cat
I guess if they fire Matt Eberfus. But I don't even know who the interim would be.
Memes
Shane Waldron.
Big Cat
It's a. It's just a joke. The whole thing is a joke. It's the whole organization joke. Everyone was right.
Memes
Give me.
Big Cat
Shouldn't have said any. I should have gotten excited over the summer. Actually, you know what? I don't regret getting excited because that's the only happiness I have is to get excited before they actually had to play games. But it's the same organization that is just consistently getting in its own way. And I was wrong to ever think that like Caleb should have asked to not come to Chicago.
Memes
He should have give me a hierarchy of blame. Who's number one?
Big Cat
The McCaskies.
Memes
Okay. Number two?
Big Cat
Probably Eber Fluss. But then. Well, no, because the McCaskies again, probably because they probably didn't want to fire Eber flu. So I was gonna say polls but I think polls was hands were tied with Eber flu. So it's probably McCaskey's then McCaskey's. Okay, then we'll throw Kevin Warren in there because people don't forget he tried to cancel the Big Ten season for. Because of COVID Then Eber fluss and polls. Shane Waldron and then Caleb.
Memes
Okay.
Big Cat
And I. I mean Caleb's been bad. He's. He looks so bad. It's. It's really, really bad.
Hank
Bad body Language.
Big Cat
I. I don't know what. Did you see the clip of Shane Waldron, like, laughing in his face? I would punch him. He should have punched him. And now I, like, get it. DJ Moore. I get why you're upset. I'm upset too. Bad body language, bad team, bad everything. It's just a gross, gross situation. But it's the same situation they always find themselves in.
Memes
I think, personally, you should have Shane Waldron ahead of Matty Bravlus, because the Caleb Williams body language, all that shit that comes from an offense that's just confusing. Not just. I'm not talking about confusing for, like, a quarterback to process. Confusing for what the fuck he's trying to do offensively.
Big Cat
But Matt Eberflusse was a bad coach last year. Yeah, he was a bad coach the year before. I know we're trying to tank, but he's never been a good coach. He got a good haircut, so his.
Memes
Barber should go Funk High up on Funk's.
Big Cat
A man. Just all sucked. Drake may look good. Hank, minus the pick. He looked good.
Hank
Yeah, he did.
Big Cat
He's going to be. He's going to have a better career than Caleb Williams. All these guys are.
Hank
First time next year.
Big Cat
JJ McCarthy hasn't even entered this.
Memes
You look good. Preseason.
Hank
First time this season.
Big Cat
I.
Hank
You know, they look good. And then I took a look at the schedule. First time I've really looked ahead. Patriots got a lot of winnable games coming up.
Big Cat
Oh, look at you. Maybe Yoffs.
Hank
I don't think. I think we're too far away from Yoff's. So it's like, who cares about winning these games?
Big Cat
But what are the winnable games? Dolphins. Colts. What?
Hank
Dolphins. Colts? Yep.
Big Cat
Okay. Rams.
Hank
Yep.
Big Cat
Really?
Hank
Yeah.
Big Cat
Cardinals?
Hank
Yep.
Big Cat
Cardinals are good.
Hank
So are the Pats.
Big Cat
Bills. What?
Hank
Bills. Probably not.
Big Cat
No, no, no. I think you're getting confused. I think you're getting confused. The Bears are the worst team in the NFL right now. If you did a power rankings for the last three weeks, they are the worst team in the NFL by far. Not even close.
PFT Commenter
Memes is arguing Jets.
Big Cat
I know. The jets won a game, didn't they? They beat the Texans. What are you talking about?
PFT Commenter
Dude, he just keeps saying we suck to it.
Memes
Okay, so, Hank, we lost in the.
Big Cat
Exact same way to the Cardinals that you did, and then we lost to the Patriots. I guess they're actually kind of on par because you lost the Patriots as well.
Tommy Smokes
Yeah, we're the same fucking franchise.
Big Cat
We are the same franchise. It really is. It's. It's crazy. How. How bad it is. It's just no matter what they get in there, we get in our own way. If they had hired Jim Harbaugh or Mike Vrabel going into this season, I think the whole world would have looked different.
Tommy Smokes
They always hire one. One. Either the GM or the coach. At different times.
Big Cat
Correct.
Tommy Smokes
He's around the same page. The owner suck cock.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Tommy Smokes
Just fucking the same.
Big Cat
They're cheap.
Tommy Smokes
Over and over.
Big Cat
Yeah. No, it's, it's, it's a joke. And I'm still gonna hold out hope for Caleb because that's what I. I want and hope and pray and I like him, but it's. I can't pretend that it's looked anywhere close to competent in the last three games.
Memes
I'm projecting at least three more wins for the Patriots.
Big Cat
Okay.
Memes
Minimum.
Big Cat
Now do the Bears.
Memes
Let me pull up the schedule.
Big Cat
Zero.
Memes
I think you guys might. Might surprise somebody.
Big Cat
Who are we going to beat?
PFT Commenter
I think you're going to beat.
Memes
I think you're going to beat the Vikings. You're going to beat the Vikings at home.
Big Cat
I mean, if we beat the packers, it'll be the greatest. Like this. I'll be so happy. Kidding me.
PFT Commenter
That's why.
Big Cat
But it's.
Memes
And I think you could beat the Packers.
Big Cat
I think we beat the packers if we have an interim head coach.
Memes
Packers last game of the season. Interim head coach. Also, packers have locked up their playoff seed.
Big Cat
Yeah, it's bad.
Memes
Maybe the Seahawks.
Big Cat
It's bad. I don't know what else to say. Have I covered it all? Do you think there's going to be people like, you didn't cover this. You didn't say this. You missed this.
Memes
Hank, has Drake been exciting enough for you to. To like, really get amped up about.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
Like you think he's the future.
Hank
He's definitely the future. Patriots look good. Their. Their defense has turned around. Like it doesn' Dysfunctional. As the media tried to shape it out a few weeks ago. Their receivers are horrible. So it's like.
Memes
Are you talking about the mutiny?
Hank
Yeah, I'm saying there's.
Memes
The mutiny worked.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Hank
Yeah, the mutiny worked.
Big Cat
So there wasn't. He worked.
Hank
And there's, there's there's a lot of room for improvement. That's not like you have the quarterback.
Big Cat
Yeah. If you catch more balls.
Hank
Yeah. But that can be. That's, that's, that's a off season fix.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Hank
You can fix with the draft.
Big Cat
Yeah. You. I don't know. I. I feel as lost as ever. You guys feel like you have A direction. So answer the question. Did I cover everything? What do you think I missed? What will people say? You didn't say this. You.
Hank
Oh, you gotta admit this bad body language. You covered Caleb being bad. You covered.
Big Cat
Yep. I was wrong about thinking it was a good situation. Heber flu is a joke.
Memes
Justin Fields. They're gonna ask about Justin Fields.
Big Cat
No, I won't do that because Justin Fields got benched as a 4 and 2 guy. That still the Justin Field. Keep Justin Fields and load up in these fantasy drafts that have Joe Alt going ninth overall and like. No.
Hank
Are you mad about this? Your second draft pick?
Big Cat
Roma Dunes A. No, I think Rome.
Hank
You have done that over though given.
Big Cat
The holes you have offensive line. How is Olu Fashion who played? I think he was the pick after.
Tommy Smokes
He's been pretty good.
Big Cat
Yeah, I mean he's just a plug.
Tommy Smokes
In guy right now.
Big Cat
I will say the only thing that I'll say is the Bears do have like all their offensive line. Their offensive line wasn't good and then they all got injured. That's a bad combo. Like Darnell Wright was out. Tevin Jenkins gets injured every other game. Nate Davis didn't play. He should be just cut. I don't know. Like everyone's hurt. So you started bad and then you got way worse because you got everyone injured. So yeah, I think I covered it all.
Hank
Yeah, I think so.
Big Cat
There's probably like a dozen packers fans literally jerking off to this like sitting in their car. I hope one of them gets arrested.
Hank
I. So I. Like I said, I. I was pretty neutral on this game until, you know, this weekend. I kind of. I thought about it more and how many Bears fans I've. I've met and become friendly with and how, you know, just instinctively it's like you kind of want to win. You kind of want to rub in their face a little bit. Not just you, but like other. Other people that I know as well. And I was talking about how good of a sports town Chicago is. It's a huge city and all of our teams suck. And it's even worse that like Milwaukee.
Big Cat
Why would you do that? Why would you throw that in?
Hank
It's just crazy that the big brother in this situation is like the little city.
Big Cat
Okay, well, let me, let me just fix that for you.
Hank
Like that's got him. That does. I understand how it makes sense.
Big Cat
Packers aside, the brewers will never win a World Series.
Hank
But the packers decides Packers.
Big Cat
The Bucks obviously have Giannis, but he's going to be a Nick soon.
Memes
And then what's Wild is the Wisconsin team that Big Cat roots for.
Big Cat
Yeah. Is also bad.
Memes
So.
Big Cat
But they good in the past.
Memes
Again, this is just this. We're asking questions from the haters.
Big Cat
Yeah, no, it's.
Memes
It's how much blame.
Big Cat
Everything sucks.
Memes
Would you put on yourself in the hierarchy of blame?
Big Cat
All of it. I shouldn't have got as excited as I did. But that you.
PFT Commenter
Don't say that. Don't say that.
Big Cat
I agree with you. I shouldn't say that because then that's the most boring thing in the world. If I sat here all summer, I was like, we'll see. I don't know what's going to happen. We'll see.
Memes
I think it's.
Big Cat
It'll be good. Well, maybe he'll be good, maybe he'll be bad. Maybe Matty Bruce be good, maybe bad. I can't. I can't do a wishy washy.
Memes
It's fair for you to say I shouldn't have gotten this excited, but also knowing that like.
Big Cat
Fuck.
Memes
That you're going to get excited.
Big Cat
Yeah. I love hard and I hurt harder. Put it on a quote card.
PFT Commenter
What's the point of being a sports fan if you're not going to get it?
Big Cat
Yeah. Yep. Yep. Yeah. It's the best part of the year is August. Yep. And it will happen again this fall, this summer, we're going to hire someone new and we're going to draft an offensive lineman. And I'm going to say that everything's going to be different and right around Thanksgiving time, it's going to. We're going to do the exact same show and I'm be sitting right here saying the exact same things. And I won't regret it.
Memes
But just wait. What if. What if something weird happens next week?
Big Cat
No.
Memes
Imagine how back you.
Hank
You gotta start like a. How to go for me. What are the petition.signsign change.org. you got to use your. Your power and influence to get them out. Eva flu's out.
Big Cat
Did you get the McCaskeys out?
PFT Commenter
I don't think that get.
Hank
Okay, now we're talking.
Big Cat
Chicago needs new owners. Like I guess, Rickets. Well, we'll see. Maybe Rickets could sign Juan Soto. That will never happen. But get reinzor for the McCaskeys out.
Memes
If the city of Chicago was as communist as some people think that it is, they would absorb the Chicago Bears. They would take them.
Big Cat
It would do better. I mean, it's just. Yeah. I don't think. I don't think he's got to get fired. Yeah.
PFT Commenter
There's no chance that he's back?
Big Cat
No.
Memes
What about the secret extension?
Hank
I get fired tomorrow.
Memes
See? Can you.
Big Cat
But they won't fire him because they never fire anyone.
PFT Commenter
Like, they're still not going to make the playoffs.
Hank
If you got to get the locker room back, I agree. Like, you got to get it back.
Big Cat
And the only thing with firing him is that you could maybe get a jump start on a new head coach, but they won't. They won't get a jump start new head coach and they won't hire the best new head coach because they won't hire someone who's bigger than the organization.
Memes
Is it Kevin Bayard?
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
So they asked him about the coaching staff after the game and he was like, I don't really want to go there right now.
Big Cat
No one does.
Memes
And he's a guy that he's, he's.
Big Cat
Like, he's like classy guy. Yeah.
Memes
But he's just doing no comment. He's like, I talk to my attorney.
PFT Commenter
Yeah, I think it's a fair response too.
Big Cat
Yeah, yeah.
PFT Commenter
Rather than.
Big Cat
I don't want to go there either.
Memes
Like, rather, rather than say anything because if you say like I have full confidence then, then you sound like an idiot. And if you say anything else, it is like a police interrogation.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
Just don't say shut the fuck up.
Big Cat
Fridays April Foo said, we're going to look at everything. Start with a mirror, dude. Okay.
Memes
Did they see Cole come at today? Did he play?
Big Cat
Yeah, he played. He got a couple targets. Not enough.
Memes
That's good.
Big Cat
Yeah, not enough. Yeah, everything sucks. I love Cole. Okay, let's do a couple ads and we'll get to the other early games.
Memes

Big Cat
H E L p.compmt okay 49ers 23 bucks 20 49ers off a buy Brock Purdy looked good. He was under pressure the entire game. Todd Bowles was dialing up those blitzes and I feel like so I walked away from this game being like the 49. I expected the 49ers to win this game more convincingly off a buy. Getting healthy, all those things. I feel like the 49ers are kind of snake bitten this year and they have a tough schedule coming up and I weirdly think we should maybe take this opportunity to bet on the Bucks to maybe win the NFC south if we can find a good line. Because the Bucks have lost four in a row. Five in a row.
Memes
The Bucks have now lost four in a row.
Big Cat
Four in a row. They've been competitive in Saints win.
Memes
That was kind of wedged in there.
Big Cat
Yeah, yeah. They. They were competitive in the last two. The. The Ravens game, that was when everyone got hurt. They made it closer. And the Falcons game, same deal. They were down like 14. But they look competitive against 49ers today. Look competitive against Chiefs last. Last week. Mike Evans is coming back. Baker is an absolute dog. That fourth down play where he was holding Bosa off of him was such an incredible play. And again, Brock Purdy played great. Like, the drive to get into the field goal range was. Was awesome. And they deserved to win this game. But I walked away from it being like, I kind of think the Bucks are especially looking at their schedule, are going to maybe be heard from again.
Memes
So the Bucs right now, their last five losses are all great losses.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
And they're. They have one loss. That's a bad loss.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
And that's when the Broncos came into town and everybody was like, what the fuck is going on right now? But, yeah, the 49ers. Brock Purdy, has he gotten faster?
Big Cat
I feel like he's so good in the pocket.
Memes
He's gotten great in the pocket. He's, like, very. He's deceptively quick back there. A lot of functional speed out of Brock, and the way that he moves around and manipulates the pocket is really fun to watch. Now, I do think that the 49ers. I. I believe in the 49ers. I know you said that They've got a tough schedule coming up.
Big Cat
Yeah. They play the Seahawks, Packers, Bills.
Memes
I think they can figure it out. Christian McCaffrey's back.
Big Cat
I just wanted to see. I. Maybe it was. So the first half, they looked very good, and then they kind of just ran out of a little bit of gas. And it's also.
Memes
They missed three field goals, too.
Big Cat
Jake Moody is a problem and got.
Memes
Hit in the face by. By Debo.
Big Cat
Debo. Yeah. Was fighting his kicker and his long snapper.
Memes
The Debo punch that he threw was like that Detroit urban survival guy.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
He took out the kicker and the long snapper with one shove.
Big Cat
Yeah. And I. The offense looked good for the 49ers. Like, I'm not. They. I guess it's more that my expectations were that they were going to kill him, and they. And the Bucks just keep. Maybe it's more the. That's what I was saying. The 49ers probably are going to be fine. There'll be a Playoff team. I shouldn't be worried about the 49ers. It's more that I'm. I'm impressed that the Bucks keep fighting. And I guess, yeah, they do have to become wins eventually. But I looked at their schedule. They have the Giants, Panthers, and Raiders as their next three. We could blink in the box. And Mike Evans is coming back.
Memes
And they also get their last two games, last three games to close out the season. Cowboys, Panthers, Saints.
Big Cat
Yeah. Yeah. They play our Chargers in the middle of that.
Memes
Yeah.
Big Cat
There's. Like. I was looking. I was like, this team could easily get to 10 wins. Would that be enough in the NFC? I don't know. But I was more. I'm just more impressed that the Bucks feel like they are time and time again outmatched and like Tristan Wurf's got hurt in this game. And still, it's just Baker. Baker just keeps you. It feels like Baker can do anything and keep you in any game. And the Bucks defense played okay. And then they, you know, obviously gave up that last drive to Brock Purdy. And Brock Purdy was the MVP of this game. In my mind, he was. He was under pressure the entire game, and he was. He was still making plays. And, yeah, it was good to see Chris McCaffrey back. Healthier than I think he's ever looked.
Memes
Hank, he said he missed playing football.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
He said it's fun to play football again. Sounds like a guy that really wanted to get back out there on the team.
Hank
He looked great.
Big Cat
He looked great. Yeah, he looked great. I guess it's also. And we'll get to the Cardinals, but, like, I think the Cardinals might be really good. And the Cardinals already beat the 49ers once, so that's going to be a tough division to end up winning. And if.
Memes
If.
Big Cat
If you think that there's going to be three NFC north teams, Packers, Vikings and Lions, and you think there's going to be two NFC east teams, the Eagles and Commanders. That only leaves one spot for the NFC West. Yeah. And that's tough because those are. Those are some. Like, the Rams are tough. The Cardinals are tough. The Seahawks. I don't fucking know what to make of them. So it's more like the 49ers coming into this, like, because they've kind of played with their food a little bit this year. They have to. They have to start winning some tough games coming up, so.
Memes
But that's what we talked about with Kyle Shanahan after the buy.
Big Cat
Yeah. His teams are awesome.
Memes
They're true.
Big Cat
I shouldn't doubt them.
Memes
The breakdown was, I think they're 40% winning percentage before the buy and then 70% after the buy.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
Which is crazy. And this game actually might be the one that we point to at the end of the season. Be like that decided who that wild card team was going to be.
Big Cat
Yeah, yeah, yeah. You know what? I'll walk back my take. I still believe in the 49ers. I more. I just watched this game. I was like, I did not think the Bucks were going to be able to hang with the Niners off the buy, and they somehow found a way. They did get that muff punt, which was big. That kind of turned the game in the second half.
Memes
Baker does look like he has to use all of his energy on every pass, every single pass play. And he'll get. He'll get almost sacked by three guys, he'll spin around in the pocket, he'll scramble somehow, figure out a way to get kick a ball to a guy that's downfield that probably wasn't on the roster week one. So it looks like he's, like, maxing out effort every time.
Big Cat
Not only that, but I feel like I can say the same for Rashad White and Bucky Irving. Yeah. Every run, they feel like they have to max out all of their effort to get, like, five yards.
Memes
Yeah.
Big Cat
I guess this is a credit to Todd Bowles, but his defense keeps fucking up.
Memes
He just loves blitzing.
Big Cat
Yeah. Oh, also, shout out. Ricky Pearsall scored his first touchdown in the NFL.
Memes
That was very cool to see.
Big Cat
Yeah. Very cool. Great play. Yeah. I think Brock Purdy's getting, like, really good. They got to pay him, right?
Memes
They. That's going to be him this year. It's going to be such a fun conversation to have about Brock Purdy.
Big Cat
Do they have to pay him this year?
Memes
He's going to want. Do you think he's going to want more money than Dak?
Big Cat
I mean, he's better than Dak. Like, that's not even a question in my mind. Would you. I would. Is that a question in your mind?
Memes
No. But is he going to get more money than Dak?
Big Cat
Oh, I don't know. Yeah, but I mean, he should because he's better than him. What is his contract? How many more years is he a free agent this year?
Memes
Let's see.
Big Cat
He is an free agent after next year. So you got one more year where the windows wide open and then they got to pay him. Yeah, I think. I think Brock Purdy is really good. Bless you. Bless you. Anything else? In this game. Oh, I have. Oh, I have two tweets that I bookmarked that I wanted to bring up. One is a pro Bucks tweet. So this is from Greg Almond. He said Bucks have averaged 30.7 points in the last six games, but are one in five in that stretch. In NFL history, there are 1353 times a team has scored 180 plus points in a six game span. Of those 1353, only two teams managed to only win one game. The Bucks this year and the 2019 Bucks, the James Bucks.
Memes
Interesting. So.
Big Cat
So they're playing well without just Jamis.
Memes
The reason for those is probably just James. Yeah, he probably did some fuck shit.
Big Cat
He drew a lot of. A lot of picks, a lot of touchdowns.
Memes
So what would the. The reason be for this season?
Big Cat
Their defense is bad and Mike Evans.
Memes
Got hurt and their coach maybe.
Big Cat
But the fact that they're still scoring points about Mike Evans and Chris Cobwin is pretty crazy.
Memes
The other stat, that's true with Todd Bowles. He's a guy that will get your team ready to play.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
And then he'll probably screw something up in the game.
Big Cat
Yeah. All right. So this has never happened before. Ever. Florida's FBS, FCS and NFL teams are combined 0 and 11 on the same weekend. FBS, FAU, FL, MIAMI, FSU, USF, UCF all lost. FCS, FAMU, BETHUNE and STETSON all lost. And in the NFL, the Jags and Bucks lost. It's all up to the Dolphins on Monday night. That's a pretty crazy stat.
Memes
So what's the call?
Big Cat
I don't know.
Memes
It's never happened before.
Big Cat
0 and 11. They are the state of Florida in football this weekend.
Memes
I don't, I don't think they can go oh, and 12.
Big Cat
I think you got to take them to go 0 12. History. It's a history game. It's a history defining game. History's at stake.
Memes
They also extended Billy Napier though, or not extended, but announced that he's not being fired.
Big Cat
Yeah, he's not being fired. Yeah, he's not being.
Memes
That could be counted as a loss too.
Big Cat
That could be huge. Okay, next game. Saints 20, Falcon 17. Darren Rizzi. We told you the Rizzler. Darren Rizzi. He did it all. He came to the stadium, he clogged the toilet, brought the boom. He said it was going to be a crappy day. It wasn't a crappy day. The Saints played with passion, with fire. They blocked a field goal, which is. He's a special teams coach. And then he even got hurt in the. In the aft after the game. He got a stinger and looked like he was losing all ability to walk. I thought he torn his ACL at one point he said, no, he got a stinger. He couldn't feel his entire left side. So his equilibrium was off.
Memes
He was trying to back his guy off, right?
Big Cat
Yeah. Well, no, he said, yeah. So Peyton Turner started spraying water on him before there was like 30 seconds left. And he's like, stop, stop. We have to wait till zeros. And then I guess Peyton Turner came and hit him in the back and he said that he's. He had a history of stinger, so he just got another stinger and he looked like he was a baby deer at the end of the game.
Memes
I love that he was angry because they were celebrating the win too early. Yeah, that's. That's winning mentality. Yeah, that's alpha male type shit. Getting to the stadium early, taking a shit so big that it clogs the toilet. Yeah, that's marking your territory. I like that. From the Rizzler.
Big Cat
He was. He was everything we wanted. He was interim head coach. Just everything you wanted wrapped up into one. Weird years and all. And Dennis Allen's got it. This should add. This should actually be another loss on Dennis Allen.
Memes
I agree. I agree. This was, it was. It was a good start for him. Who knows how long the interim coach bump lasts? I think we just got to bet him until it. It doesn't work. Right.
Big Cat
They play the Browns next week. It might. It might. You might get another week.
Memes
Yeah, they added a warm up. They stretched before the game.
Big Cat
They stretched before the game.
Memes
That was pretty big.
Big Cat
Yeah. Changed the locker room. The defense like had fight again because they. The defense has been really bad for the Saints. And yeah, they beat. I mean, that's. That's a game they always want to win. They hate the Falcons, so big win. And the Falcons are going to look and be like, what the fuck just happened? Because they are better than the Saints, but they weren't today. And Kirk Cousins was just kind of off all day.
Memes
I think Kirk Cousins was exactly on for Kirk Cousins. The way the game ended, though.
Big Cat
Oh, yeah.
Memes
It was classic Kirk Cousins. Yeah, check down on fourth down. It was. It was like that Vikings tight end play all over again. He hasn't learned. No, he never will learn.
Big Cat
He has not learned. I mean, Bijan is still amazing.
Memes
He's amazing. And Kirk being Kirk. I don't know if you saw the sack fumble that he had. I think the Falcons recovered So it wasn't like a huge, huge game.
Big Cat
You know who did that?
Memes
Who's that?
Big Cat
You know who sacked him? Strip sacked him.
Memes
Who sacked him?
Big Cat
Chase Young.
Memes
Yeah, Chase Young.
Big Cat
Chase Young guy is your guy.
Memes
But when you see Kirk Cousins, we've said that he's the most sackable quarterback in the NFL, right?
Big Cat
Yeah, he.
Memes
I think he's also the most fumbleable quarterback on a sack in the NFL.
Big Cat
Yeah. But you know, when someone's bearing down.
Memes
A Kirk, he does a good job when he, when somebody's bearing down on him, when he throws it away and turtles at the same time. Yeah, he's very good at the turtle turn away, throwaway. But when he gets hit, every time Kirk Cousins gets hit, I think he's going to drop the ball.
Big Cat
But he also is really weirdly good at fumbling like in his own orbit. Yeah, he like almost does like a. He's almost dribbling a basketball.
Memes
Yeah.
Big Cat
Where it comes right back to him.
Memes
Bounces to him or bounces to his teammate.
Big Cat
Yeah, exactly.
Memes
He doesn't lose a lot of them. But when I see a guy getting close to Kirk, I'm like, he's going to drop this.
Big Cat
Yeah, he's going to drop this ball. Also mvs. I didn't even know he was on the Saints. He got signed two weeks ago. He had 100 yards and two touchdowns in the first half.
Memes
That's huge.
Big Cat
Marquez valding scantling like that was, that was out of nowhere. Yeah.
Memes
If this was like four, four weeks earlier, I would say he's going to go back to the Chiefs.
Big Cat
Yeah, he. Yeah, they probably will find a way to get him back to the Chiefs. He'll just prove that he's good and then the Saints will cut him.
Memes
Yep. Also, three missed kicks by coup.
Big Cat
I was going to say we, we should know better. We are knee jerk reaction guys. We said that NFL kickers are too good and they should make the, you know, the uprights closer together. This was the week where everything starts to turn. And because we had missed kicks like Jake Moody went 1 for 4, Young Hoku went 1 for 4. It feels like kicking is getting, you know, Justin Tucker missed a kick on Thursday Night Football Extra point. Feels like kickers are coming back to just still fucking up every now and then.
Memes
So what's the knock that we have historically had against kickers?
Big Cat
What do you mean?
Memes
Just when you think of kickers mentally weak. Mentally weak.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
I think that the discussion of kickers becoming so good and the threat, the looming threat of them narrowing the goalpost has made kickers fuck up more.
Big Cat
They're. They're like, we have to get in front of this. We have to start missing some kicks before they take this away from us.
Memes
Yeah, it could be intentional.
Big Cat
It could be.
Memes
They all got together and they're like, hey, we need to. They're going to fuck everybody over.
Big Cat
Yeah, yeah. But, yeah, kickers suck again.
Memes
Shout out to coup for great solidarity.
Big Cat
Yeah, he did get one blocked, but, yeah, I was pumped to see that. I just love interim head coaches. Whenever there's an interim head coach, I will dig deep on this person and find out if they fit the bill for an interim head coach that can get us a couple cheap wins.
Memes
This was a double threat, too, because you not only had all the textbook stuff about Rizzi, but you also had the rivalry game. Yeah, like the very vicious, physical rivalry that these two teams have. I don't think that a team has swept the other in, like, eight years. They always split this series. So when you. When you combine the two of those, it felt like a nice bounce back for the Saints.
Big Cat
Yeah. And in the Saints. The Saints offense basically did it. It was a microcosm of their entire season. The first half, they looked awesome, and then they just sucked again for the second half, but their defense held on and. Yeah, the foul. I think the Falcons. I don't know what to think of the Falcons, actually, to be honest with you, I don't know what to think of the Falcons.
Memes
I think they're. They're a good team.
Big Cat
I think they're a loser.
Memes
You know what? They're fine.
Big Cat
They're going to probably win the NFC South.
Memes
Yeah, I'd say most likely.
Big Cat
Most likely.
Memes
I'd say that they're a fine team.
Hank
Think of the Falcons and the Commanders were matched up in the playoffs.
Big Cat
I would take the Commanders.
Memes
I would take the Commanders.
Big Cat
I would be at the Falcons, most likely, because I don't think the Falcons are going to probably win the NFC South. So they'd have a home playoff game. It would probably be Falcons, like, minus two. And I would take the commander's money line spot.
Memes
I love that spot for us.
Big Cat
Yeah, that's a good spot for you.
Memes
I would.
Big Cat
Falcon's got kind of a tough road, though. Coming up. They have the Broncos, Chargers, and Vikings. Those aren't. Those are good defenses.
Memes
I would rather play the Falcons on the road than the Eagles at home.
Big Cat
Yes.
Memes
That's where I'm at.
Big Cat
Yeah. And Bajan is still the best. Oh, we're watching Sunday Night Football.
Memes
It is very confusing. Though how they decide to use Bajan and how they decide to use Algier.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
Because there was that one goal line stand where it was just like, we're going to try our damnedest to get Alger a touchdown. We're going to hand the ball to him three times in a row. Then when our backs up against the wall. Okay, fine, we'll get. We'll let Robinson get. Get in the game.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
Try to score a touchdown.
Big Cat
Yeah. I.
Memes
If they're. If you're on the one yard line, just let your best running back run it in. I know that you guys do the thing where you're trying to divvy up their workload and okay, one drive for one guy, one drive for the other guy. But in that situation, just put fucking Bijan Robinson in the game.
Big Cat
Yeah. Yeah. I. And he. The touchdown that he did score, he was kind of dead to rights. And he's just like, I'm faster than everyone. Okay. Other two early games, bills 30, colts 20. I have to ask what the Colts are doing. What's the plan here? Now, because you brought in Flacco. We love Flacco to make a playoff push. Euro and 2 now, and Flacco starts. I guess the plan is that you're still in a playoff push.
Memes
I think it's like they wanted. They wanted Richardson to learn from Flacco. And in a weird way, I feel like Flacco has learned from Richardson. Oh, the first two picks, they were very. Anthony Richardson, like, yeah, they were bad.
Big Cat
And he had a fumble as well. This was. This was a game where I actually thought it was like a tough spot for the Bills because coming off the Dolphins, when they got the Chiefs on deck, and the Bills did play a little clunky, they just got four turnovers. And Josh Allen was not. Not great at the start of the game. And then in the fourth quarter, he put together two 13 play drives and took the game away.
Memes
I have a fun stat for you.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
Josh Allen has now tied O.J. simpson for most Bills rushing touchdowns.
Big Cat
Oh, wow.
Memes
How about that elite company.
Big Cat
That is a league company.
Memes
The Bills have been waiting for so long for that record.
Big Cat
You got it. Yeah. Josh, that's gonna be a big day when he breaks.
Memes
You gotta get that. They're probably gonna put up like a permanent banner in the stadium.
Big Cat
Yeah, I was so. I was taking notes before we sat down and I was like, what. What is the plan? Why not just play Anthony Richardson? You're not going to make the playoffs. But they're still right now they're the eighth seed in, in the afc and obviously the AC doesn't make the playoffs, but they're a couple wins away. So I guess you gotta keep going for this playoff push thing.
Memes
I guess you make the playoffs, you lose your first game.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
Bad draft pick. Rinse and repeat.
Big Cat
Also, why Shane Steichen, who I think is a good coach, why did you stop running with Jonathan Taylor in this game?
Memes
Did he used to do this in Philly?
Big Cat
What. What was the. What was up with that?
PFT Commenter
I don't know.
Big Cat
He. Jonathan Taylor had 16 carries, 107 yards in the first half. In the second half, he had five carries for seven yards and it was a one score game all the way into the fourth quarter. It wasn't like the Bills ran away with. It was 20 to 13, what felt like forever.
Memes
Maybe he was tired, he ran so far.
Big Cat
I don't know. That was weird. That was very weird. Also the. I mean, you could say the same for the Bills because I feel like James Cook. The Bills should just run the ball more. They get a little cute, especially with Keon Coleman, with Amari Cooper and Keon Coleman banged up. Like, run the ball more, dude.
Memes
Yeah, that's been the knock on the Bills for the last couple. I feel like Joe Brady is not a guy that loses sight of that. For the most part, he tries to remember. Okay, it's not a bad thing to run the ball. Even though you have Josh Allen. If the running game's working, stick with it.
Big Cat
But he only had. He only had eight carries in the first half and Josh Allen was 4 for 10 for 25 yards and two picks on first down passes. Yeah, run the ball. You guys are a good running team.
Memes
I mean, the Bills are playing pretty good for a team whose super bowl window is closed.
Big Cat
Yeah, that's true. No, I actually like, I. Weirdly as it was kind of a sloppy win for the Bills, but I give them a lot of credit because I thought this was a bad spot for them and they just take care of business. They found like the fourth quarter happened. Like I said, it felt like the Bills had the ball for the entire fourth quarter. They went 13 play, field goal drive, interception, 13 play, touchdown drive, game over.
Memes
Yeah, depending on what happens next week, I fully reserve the right to reverse this take and do a 180 on it. But I feel better about the Bills chances in the postseason right now than I did. I think at any point last year.
Big Cat
I feel like the Bills should maybe try to lose this game so then they can beat him in the playoffs. And they can avoid everyone being like, oh, you won your weekend 11 super bowl against the Chiefs.
Memes
But I also think they're in that dangerous spot where every heartbreaking loss that Sean McDermott has to the Chiefs makes it more likely that he loses to the Chiefs again. Yeah.
Hank
I think that the Chiefs, being undefeated, going in the playoffs, they have more pressure than.
Big Cat
Yeah. So. Yeah. So I'm saying the Bills, kind of sneaky, might want to lose this game. Yeah, I know they don't.
Memes
Is. Is.
Big Cat
I know this is the dumbest thought.
Memes
I've had is losing this game. The Buffalo Bills Super Bowl.
Big Cat
It. It might be smart. Cause then you can kind of just.
Hank
Be like, start a ch.
Big Cat
Championship dvd and people can't talk shit where they're like, oh, you beat him in the regular season, can't beat him in the playoffs. You avoid that. Well, no, they just can't. They won't say that.
Hank
You just can't beat them now. You just can't beat them.
Big Cat
They beat him in the regular season, I think last year, or maybe it was the year before.
Memes
But if they. If they lose the Chiefs. Hanks. Right. This is like, you definitely can't be. Nobody on that sideline truly believes that they can beat the Chiefs unless they see one go in.
Big Cat
But that happened last year.
Memes
Yeah, it didn't work out.
Big Cat
No. But what I think what Hank is saying is you weirdly want the Chiefs to be undefeated because the pressure is going to get too high. Yeah.
Hank
The pressure of an undefeated season and a 3 Pete is a lot is a shitload.
Big Cat
That's guys playing real tight, Hank. Real tight. Which is playing loose.
Memes
Would you rather see the Chiefs go undefeated in the regular season and not win the super bowl? Or the Chiefs get beaten up and then win the Super Bowl?
Hank
No. Undefeated. Lose.
Memes
Yeah.
Hank
Means nothing. It means nothing.
Memes
No, it means that season means nothing to you.
Hank
No, it's just disappointing. It's a disappointing season. It's like, you want to say it's the greatest season of all time, but you can't.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Hank
Because anyone could just say, is watching the Super Bowl.
PFT Commenter
Is watching the Chiefs like your number one interest in football right now?
Hank
No.
Big Cat
What is ear. Washington Huskies.
Hank
No, they're terrible. Yeah.
Memes
Whomping pit football.
Hank
I like. I like. I mean, the Bears. It's kind of over. I like. I was enjoying the. The Commanders and Bears dynamics. And now I'm backing on the Patriots.
Big Cat
Yeah. Drake May. You were wrong about Drake May. Yeah, I was not wanting to play.
Hank
I was. I was wrong.
PFT Commenter
But, like, making sure that Chiefs don't.
Memes
He's monitoring Chiefs.
PFT Commenter
Yeah.
Big Cat
Yes. Do you have an eye on the Chiefs at all times?
Hank
No. Doesn't matter to the playoffs. The Chiefs are like it match the Chiefs like the play Patriots where it's like their season doesn't start till the playoffs. And I think that if they're undefeated going into the start of the season, a lot more pressure.
Big Cat
Got it.
Hank
And it would make a lot more pressure on me.
PFT Commenter
So once the playoffs start, that's when your attention will turn to like Chiefs, all eyes.
Memes
It's perfect.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
In a roundabout way, Hank is back to his old. His old me where it's like he doesn't pay attention until the playoffs start.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
But now it's just a hate about the Chiefs. Yeah.
Big Cat
Yeah. But you were right. You're right. PFT for reset year. The bills are 8 and 2.
Memes
Yeah. And they're definitely a Super bowl contender.
Big Cat
Yeah. I do think the Bills, they. They should try to win on Sunday against the Chiefs.
Memes
You think so?
Big Cat
Yeah, I think they should try it. I'm thinking about it more because they're. They're one other. Was it Sunday Night Football?
Memes
What if that was the problem? What? They just. They were trying too hard. What if they don't try to win? They take big cat's advice and somehow they'll end up winning.
Big Cat
Yeah. I'm going to walk back my. But I think they should try to win because their other big game this year was against the Ravens. They got killed.
Memes
Yeah.
Big Cat
They got a. Yeah.
Memes
They got to prove it.
Big Cat
They got to beat the Chiefs that way. It's the three way at the top where the. Where the Chiefs beat the Ravens. The Ravens beat the Bills. The Bills beat the Chiefs. And you could say, holy shit, it's wide open.
Memes
And the Raiders.
Big Cat
And the Raiders. And the Raiders. Okay, last early game, Vikings 12, Jaguars 7. Aha. This was a hell of a game because the Vikings dominated this game to an insane level. And they won by five. They had 402 yards of offense to the Jaguars 143. They had 28 first downs to the Jaguars 10. And the Vikings ran 82 offensive plays. 61 of them were in the Jaguars territory. And you might say, why is it only 12 7? Well, Sam Darnold. So Sam Darnold, he's the first QB to win without leading his offense to a touchdown and throw three picks since Rex Grossman in the famous Monday Night Football game against the Cardinals where he threw four picks. And he's also the first QB to throw three picks and have zero touchdown drives since Sam Darnold did it. Week nine, 2018, where he threw four picks against Brock Osweiler and the Dolphins.
Memes
So I like those stats where quarterbacks do something crazy and bad and then you go back and you're like, oh, the only other time this happened was the same guy.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
They should rename that, that stat after him.
Big Cat
The good news is the Vikings won and their defense was like, save the day. The bad news is, if you're a Vikings fan, are you a little worried that Sam Darnold's turning back into a pump?
Memes
So you might have said this stat in a different way, but it was chaps. Sad Jag stat of the week that the. The Vikings are the first team to win a game with zero touchdowns and three plus turnovers since 2006.
Big Cat
Yeah, yeah. Those. The Bears who are who we thought they are.
Memes
Yeah. Teams had lost 195 straight games before that. Also, the way that the Jaguars lost this game at the end, this is another one of those probably a poorly coached football team mistakes.
Big Cat
Yep.
Memes
Where Trayvon Walker threw a punch after a third down stop.
Big Cat
Yep.
Memes
Like, you did your job.
Big Cat
He was wailing on him.
Memes
You did your job. You, you, you got a turnover where you essentially have. I forget how much time was left. Like a minute or so.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
But you had a chance to win the game and then you're like, no, fuck it, I'm just going to punch this guy real quick.
Big Cat
Yeah, it was. The Jags are just, I mean, Mac Jones, do you have three turnovers in the fourth quarter? You know, he had two picks and a fumble.
Memes
He didn't look great. He looked awful.
Hank
Terrible.
Memes
He looked awful.
Big Cat
Yeah, he looked shell.
Memes
White helmets did not suit Mac Jones.
Big Cat
He did have a 70 yard touchdown drive and then all other drives he had 73 yards total.
Memes
Did Pete Prisco kill the Jaguars?
Big Cat
He might have.
Memes
I think he might have. I actually went back because they've been 3 and 13 in their last 16 games. The Jaguars have. After that hot start last year, the turnaround was when Trevor Lawrence got injured and everybody thought, like, oh, maybe a year he'll be out. We took his helmet off and remember he had to walk.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
Training room.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
I don't necessarily think he got severely injured on that hit that he took. I think the walk, something about the walk, the sad slow walk that he made to the training room, it ended it. From that point on, they're 3 and 13.
Big Cat
Yeah. And Doug Peterson is getting very testy. He said. A reporter asked what happened during the Mac Jones interception. He said, I'm not going to go through the details of the play because you guys wouldn't figure it out. But we'll look at the tape tomorrow.
Memes
You guys wouldn't get it.
Hank
I feel like the Jaguars are permanently 3 and 13 in their last 16.
Big Cat
Yes. Except for that hot start and those jerseys today. I know we discussed them on Friday when seeing them in action. Maybe it was the Mac Jones part of it. Not for me. It looked like a college team alternate.
Memes
Two things. One, Mac Jones did not look as good as Trevor did. Two, the Blur really fooled us. The Blur fucked us up on the Photoshop.
Big Cat
Yeah. And is Trevor Lawrence could be out for a while now.
Memes
I don't know. Because it felt like it was a. Was it a Thursday decision Friday?
Big Cat
Yeah, but I think he said. I think I saw a report that he's getting a second opinion. Which. Second opinions are never good. Yeah.
Memes
You don't get a second opinion if your first doctor tells you something good. He's like, you don't have herpes. Well, let me check with somebody else.
Big Cat
Credits to Trevor Lawrence, I guess, because, you know, he's not been great this year, but. But it could get worse. Yeah, it could be Mac Jones.
Memes
By the way, if you get a second opinion on an injury and the second doctor tells you something completely different, you got to fire that first doctor, Right?
Big Cat
Yeah. Well, I think it's kind of. You just keep asking people to. Hoping that someone's going to say you're okay.
Memes
Yeah.
Big Cat
He could miss the rest of the season with serious ac. Joint sprain, per Diana Rossini.
Memes
What do you think about that memes?
Tommy Smokes
Fugazi.
Memes
Fugazi.
Big Cat
Oh, so you don't think he's actually injured?
Tommy Smokes
No, they're probably just sitting out because they're out of playoff contention.
Memes
She did say the other day that when she. She posts anti jets news, like jets news that Jets f. Jets fans will find disappointing, she thinks about memes before she sends it. Do you like that? Memes?
Big Cat
That's actually kind of cute memes.
Tommy Smokes
Some extra str.
Big Cat
Yeah, it's not that strange. You guys have a little thing. You guys have a little. You know, it's a healthy rivalry back and forth going on. It's cute. It's very cute. Yeah. I. I don't know if you're the Vikings. I don't know. You just gotta hope and pray that Sam Darnold keeps it together a little bit.
Memes
I'm not done believing.
Big Cat
I'm not done believing. But the cracks have begun to show. Would you say that's fair.
Memes
Yeah.
Big Cat
Like.
Memes
But. But if the cracks are showing and they're winning games, are they even really.
Hank
A crack Bears could be the Vikings.
Memes
Yeah, they could.
Big Cat
Probably not. Yeah. Bad.
Memes
If you get a bad Sam game.
Big Cat
Brian Floors blitzing. Probably not. Probably not. Yeah. Because. Yes. Sunday Night Football. He was not great in the first half in that game. Right.
Memes
Yeah. So if you get a bad Sam game and you get away with a blatant face mask, you could win. Maybe.
Big Cat
Maybe. Okay, let's. Oh, also shout out the Vikings new kicker, John Parker. Romo. Yeah, he's signed off the street. Four for four.
Memes
J.P. romo.
Big Cat
Yeah. J.P. romo. I don't know. I just like that they found a guy off the street. He was just tossing around. He was. I think he was on a bunch of practice squads. I think he was out of a job for a while. Good for JP Romo.
Memes
My husband cannot hold the ball and kick the ball at the same time.
Big Cat
J.P. romo. Okay, before we get to the afternoon games. Pft. You want to do a couple ads? Yes.
Memes
Before we get to the afternoon games, they're brought to you by our great friends over at Paramount. The epic return of Yellowstone is here. You guys watch Yellowstone?
Big Cat
I do not, but I heard it's good.
Memes
I love Yellowstone. Watch every episode. And it's only on the Paramount network. The wait is over, people. The television phenomenon is back. Everything is at stake with the Dutton's darkest secrets on the verge of being exposed. And as threats mount on all fronts. What will become of the Dutton family? Can they save the Yellowstone ranch and their way of life? How far will Beth Dutton go to protect the family legacy? My personal guess, probably pretty far. And who's going to the train station?

Big Cat
Okay. Afternoon games. One of the worst slates of afternoon games. I mean, we've talked about this a million times. With doing three games, you just leave yourself open to exactly what happened. All three games pretty much were non competitive and shitty, but we got to talk about them because there are big storylines coming out of it. Chargers 27, Titans 17. Justin Herbert is so good. He's so goddamn good. I know his numbers. He was 14 for 18 for 164 yards. But he was breaking ankles and this team is just playing hardball where he doesn't make mistakes.
Memes
Can I tell you one thing that his numbers are elite at? Interceptions.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
So he does not throw interceptions. Going into this game, Justin Herbert was tied for third lowest interception rate in NFL history. You know, he was tied with Aaron Rodgers, Brady Burrow, Mahomes, Colin Kaepernick. Oh, great wild list. Now he's in third all alone after this game. Second place, Aaron Rodgers.
Big Cat
Yep.
Memes
First place. You'll never get this in a million years, Hank. Maybe, maybe Hank will get it.
Big Cat
What, what year?
Memes
Jacoby Brisset.
Big Cat
Ah, yeah, there it is.
Memes
But yeah, he doesn't turn the ball. I don't think he's thrown an interception since week two.
Big Cat
Week two, Week two was the last time he threw an interception. He's playing harb ball.
Memes
I feel like he doesn't want to let Harbaugh down.
Big Cat
Yeah, he's basically like they, they have their system, their defense is elite. Their defense has 18 sacks in the last three games. They also are leading the leagues in points per game allowed at 13.1. The next closest is the Steelers at 16.2. They just have the formula, they have the formula down. And Justin Herbert is like, it's, it's, it's nice seeing a guy who we thought was good who maybe didn't have the win loss record that you, you'd expect to have a really good defense now backing him up. Where I think it's, it's something ridiculous where it's like, like 35 and like 6 or 7. The Justin Herbert, his record when his defense allows 24 points or less in the game.
Memes
Also Justin Herbert, I think we have to start calling him Beast now.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
Because Jim Harbaugh said that should be his name.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
On his Beast Herbert.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
Great, great nickname by Coach Arbaugh.
Big Cat
Yeah, he's. He. Yeah. I mean, I don't. I know we do this every week, but Harbaugh makes me laugh every single week. Did you, Max, can you pull it? Oh, Max walked out. He was just walking out. Can you pull up the. I tweeted it. But Harbaugh, it's as simple as having the entire team. High five. Yeah. It looks like the most fun ever. So watch this clip. Juan, go to the start. We can't hear anything and we got to start doing this.
Memes
High fives. Bring back the high five.
Big Cat
And then they just go around high fiving each other.
Memes
That's awesome. Dudes rock.
Big Cat
We gotta start doing this in the office. Yeah.
Memes
Shout out. Was it Dusty Baker?
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
Hey, Baker invented the high five.
Big Cat
Hey, give everybody a high five. And it's just. Yeah.
Memes
I mean that's the human body loving contact right there.
Big Cat
Yeah. The team is rolling. They have a formula and it works perfectly. And yeah, they're, they're just a good team. Now for the Titans, Will Levis was back. Didn't have a catastrophic turnover. Also, this game kind of turned when Herbert had the fumble. That was a return for a touchdown. Then it was ruled not a fumble. I. I don't really know. I, I feel like they might have gotten it right, but I understand if Titans fans were upset about that. Also I found out that I think one of the rules guys in the NFL, his last name is Butterworth, which. That's kind of funny.
Memes
That is very.
Big Cat
Because there was like a pool report and Butterworth had to. Had to explain what they saw in that.
Memes
Yeah, that's awesome.
Big Cat
But yeah, no, doy doy plays for Will Levis. The Titans have a problem where their defense is also good, but they play a good half of football and that's about it because this season they're being outscored 125 to 53 in the second half.
Memes
Yeah, it's an issue for them. They. It seems like they get frustrated when they're the only unit that's out there going. Calvin Ridley did play well today.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
Again, Calvin Ridley, he's emerged in the second. Second. I guess the second half of the first half of the season.
Big Cat
DeAndre Hopkins just needed to be traded. Hopkins and he needed to complain publicly. They need.
Memes
He needed to know he's the kind of guy that needs to know he's the guy.
Big Cat
Yeah, he had to like very publicly complain for it to work out. But yeah, I, I'm just impressed with the Chargers and yes, a lot of it is jealousy because I think that Jim Harbaugh would go to any team and do this?
Memes
I think probably, yeah. Think of like any opening in the NFL. Harbaugh is going to turn around pretty quick.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
And who knows like what the ultimate result is going to be. I could see the Chargers going to the super bowl in the next three years.
Big Cat
I think I said AFC championship in the next three years. I believe that. I mean Herbert's doing this with. Not like it's not like he has an insane cast of characters. I mean Lab McConkey who I like Quentin Johnson, who everyone cast off. He's good now. Yeah. I mean they get a couple more studs at wide receiver and they'd be a very hard team to stop. Oh wow. That was a deep field goal. We're watching the last five minutes of the Lions Texan game which has been a pick fest. That was a bomb of a field goal to tie at 23. 23. So yeah, I'm impressed with the Chargers. Titans are kind of. They're in the camp of teams that are going to bad teams that are going to keep playing hard.
Memes
Did the Chargers or the Titans have any special teams mistakes today? I didn't see any.
Big Cat
They did give up a big punt return.
Memes
A big punt return?
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
Was it a touchdown?
Big Cat
No, but it was. I'll get the exact yardage. By the way, our good friend coach Ron Rivera just texted me and said the lion should be up by one right now. I like that because they went for two. Yeah.
Memes
I like that. He hates two points. He really hates two point conversions.
Big Cat
Yeah, I, the, the, the Titans. Yeah. Their special teams still suck. It still sucks. Let me find the exact. I know it was a. In the second half, I want to say they gave a pretty big punt return. That there's just good for one really bad situation. Every single. It feels like every single game. And we talked about it. They have the second worst special teams unit of all time.
Memes
They have to play perfect on like mistake free on offense and mistake free on special teams to have any chance in a game.
Big Cat
Yeah. And it's just. It just doesn't happen for them. They just can't put the whole thing together and it's just. Yeah, it's hard. Oh, they missed a field goal.
Memes
I had a field goal. I had a. Want to feel old stat or not really stat. Just a thought today. Asante Samuel Jr. Yeah, right. So he's on the Chargers. I don't know what his career is going to look like, but I read a report about how this is probably going to be his last season with the Chargers. And I was like, well, how much longer is he going to be in the league? And start doing the math on it. He's only been the league, I, I think three years. But within a few years we're going to have a conversation about Assante Samuel Jr. Maybe retiring from football.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
And that's going to make me feel so much older than When Assante Samuel Jr.
Big Cat
Became a football player that I, My only note on Asante Samuel Jr. Is that time I said that he was, he was cooked. And then he had three interceptions in that playoff.
Memes
Yeah, that was funny.
Big Cat
That was bad. That was, that was, that was instant and instantly bad. They had a 56 yard kickoff return.
Memes
Okay.
Big Cat
The Chargers. That's bad. You don't want to have that happen. That feels like not a good thing for how you want to play football. And yeah, their special team still sucks. Okay, let's do Eagles 34, Cowboys six max. Absolutely kicking ass. That was a shit pumping whomping.
Memes
Yeah, you want him good, you want him good. You want them into Trey Lance.
Big Cat
You want him into. The main story being about the sun because we had CD Lamb losing the ball. An easy touchdown because Jerry Jones built his stadium where the sun just directly shines onto half of the field through like the lower part where it's really, really hard to see.
Memes
Well, there's no way that they would know where the sun was going to be setting between the hours of 1pm and 5pm every day. Yeah, they didn't know that you could build a stadium facing north, south, south.
Big Cat
Oh wait, he did know.
Memes
You did know that because it's happened for the last, depending on how old you think the earth is, at least 60, 000 years.
Big Cat
And he got really mad at the reporters after and he said that, he said, by the way, we know where the sun is going to be when we decide to flip the coin or not. We do know where the damn sun is going to be in our own stadium. And then someone asked if why not put up the curtains over the window? He said, let's tear down the stadium. Well, let's tear the damn stadium down and build another one. Are you kidding me? That, that seemed like a. The curtains seem like a fair point.
Memes
You can't put curtains up.
Big Cat
It would tear down the whole stadium.
Memes
You have to tear it out. You don't know anything about building stadiums, big cat. You have to tear, you have to build it from the studs up if you want to install curtains.
Big Cat
Yeah. And then he said everybody's got the same thing. Every team that comes in here has the same issues. I'm saying the world knows where the sun is. You get to know that almost a year in advance. Someone asked me about the sun. What about the sun? Where's the moon?
Memes
Yeah, where's the moon? What's. What's next? I like the slippery slope argument in this.
Big Cat
This. Was that Jerry Jones or Joe Biden.
Memes
We're talking about the fucking sun. Where's the sun? He's like, next thing, you guys are going to be asking me where the moon is. Well, Jerry, the moon doesn't make a difference.
Big Cat
Jerry, it's completely asinine that the sun in a. In a dome stadium and the ability to put up curtains is this much of an impact in the game.
Memes
Jerry Jones is as close as we'll get as Mr. Burns to an owner in the NFL. But Mr. Burns knew at least how to block the sun out.
Big Cat
Correct. And I also think. Think I feel like it's like, I think maybe he did up building the stadium the way he built it. Like, I think he built it east, west, and he should have been building it north. Like, the end zone should be north, south.
Memes
Yeah.
Big Cat
And he probably. They probably started building it, and by the time they were halfway done, he's like, wait, hold on a second. Did we this up? And now he's. It. It feels like maybe they struck a court.
Memes
This is the second time this year, too, where it's. It's had a serious impact on his own team being able to play.
Big Cat
Yes.
Memes
And it's not like that's a home field advantage. It's not like this is. This is Acure Stadium, where you have a better sense of where the winds are blowing because you play there all the time. This is impacting both teams, and I guess they know, like, how to manage the kickoffs and the coin flips so that they get less of the sun. Well, it didn't work out this time. It's. It's very funny, though, that this is the conversation that we're having about the Cowboys.
Big Cat
So funny. And the Cowboys are bad. They're bad. I mean, without Dak Prescott, they're really bad. They couldn't do anything offensively. Trey Lance came in. Trey Lance, by the way, congratulations. Trey Lance now has more pass attempts in high school, college, and NFL combined than Tom Brady's last season for the Bucks.
Memes
Okay, that's cool.
Big Cat
So he just finally passed. He's learning for one season of Tom Brady.
Memes
Let the young man develop a little bit. I think it's Funny, because the Cowboys obviously did not play a particularly inspired brand of football today. They didn't play an entertaining style of football today. And you look at the schedule and you know that we're going to get more Cowboys games in prime time.
Big Cat
They'll start flexing.
Memes
I think most people are like, I can't believe we have to watch the Cowboys in prime time. I actually think the opposite.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
I kind of like watching the Cowboys in prime time when they're at this stage.
Big Cat
Yeah. Because you know, Jerry's going to get really upset.
Memes
He's going to. He's going to scream about the sun.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
At some point. This is good for America.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
We're at each other's throats all the time. We hate each other. Other. Let's give ourselves something to unite behind. And I feel like laughing at the Cowboys is just good for vibes in this country.
Big Cat
Yeah, agreed.
Memes
So maybe flex them into more prime time games.
Big Cat
Yeah. And by the way, shout out Saquon. He had never beaten the Cowboys. He was 0 10. He now has beaten the Cowboys. Owen 10 with the Giants against the Cowboys. Max, let's talk about it. How are you feeling? I mean, your defense is playing well. I know it's Cooper Rush and Trey Lance, but still it feels like the Vic Fangio system is starting to take hold. And your offense looked great. That drive at the end of the first half was like. That was the game, basically.
PFT Commenter
Yeah. Everything looks good. I mean, past four games. 28 points, 37 points. 28 points, 34 points.
Big Cat
Look at that.
PFT Commenter
Offense looks great. Defense looks great. A couple bad turnovers in the first half, but he cleaned it up in the second half and just beat the shit out of a team that sucks.
Memes
Jalen looked healthy. Yeah, he looked healthy. Did you see the controversy about the injury report this week?
PFT Commenter
Yep. That was Siriann. Won't Sirianni good, coach?
Big Cat
Yeah, I was going to ask you. I have a. What was the controversy?
Memes
Yeah, yeah, I want to hear. You didn't really answer the question. You just kind of mumbled a few words and then said, sirianni, good coach.
PFT Commenter
Because it was such a stupid thing for him to do.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
So what do you do?
PFT Commenter
He just told.
Memes
Yeah. So what happened was they asked him about Jalen hurts and how he didn't practice. I think that was on Wednesday. This week. Week. And the question was, we haven't seen Jalen Hertz be held back for load management before. What was behind that decision on Wednesday? And Sirianni said, yeah, he was dealing with. It was on the injury report. He was dealing with the ankle. You know, just making sure we're precautious with everything. And then the reporter said, jalen Hurts wasn't on the injury list with an ankle. And then Sirianni goes, what. What was that? That was arrest. Yeah, sorry, I thought you were talking about somebody else. And then they said, his is Jalen Hurts dealing with an ankle problem. And he said, no, it's rest.
Big Cat
That's great.
Memes
He just.
Big Cat
Sir, the question was, is this your handwriting?
Memes
Misspoke.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
So, Max, he did look healthy, though, today.
PFT Commenter
Yeah.
Big Cat
Like I.
Memes
Watching him play, I was like, maybe. Maybe it was load management. Maybe Siri is just an idiot.
PFT Commenter
Yeah, no, this. This was one of those games. I guess it got a little stressful there. In the beginning, Hank was being an asshole.
Memes
I don't. I think Hank was being used.
Big Cat
Being Hank.
PFT Commenter
Yeah, he was just being Hank, cheering on the boys.
Memes
He can't exist.
PFT Commenter
Yeah. So it's. I mean it.
Big Cat
Yeah, he can't exist.
PFT Commenter
By the time the second half came.
Hank
Around, you stood up and told me to suck your dick.
Memes
Oh, that's true.
Big Cat
And you almost made memes suck your dick.
Memes
Yeah. You stood up. You.
Big Cat
It was like in memes face.
Memes
You touched your penis.
PFT Commenter
I apologize. I regretted doing that. I wish it. If I could take it back. I will.
Hank
I was rooting for my Cowboys and you made it personal.
PFT Commenter
Not your Cowboys.
Big Cat
Did you bet on them?
Memes
Yeah, they're his Cowboys.
Big Cat
Well, Hank has been to a playoff Cowboys game more recently than you've been to a playoff Eagles.
PFT Commenter
I've never been to a playoff.
Big Cat
Oh, wow. I rest my case.
Hank
Fair.
PFT Commenter
Wait, that's not true. I've been to the Super Bowl.
Big Cat
Oh, yeah. It's a pretty big playoff game.
PFT Commenter
I was thinking at the link.
Hank
I got one.
Big Cat
I got a question for you, Max. Is it time to give Nick Sirianni a contract extension?
PFT Commenter
He's coaching good football right now.
Big Cat
He is 41 and 19 is the Eagles head coach. 20 of those wins by 10 points or more, so almost half. He also is the first Eagles head coach to begin with. First three or first three seasons or three seasons with a record seven or two or better in three consecutive seasons. He's a really good coach. I think you got to lock him up long term.
PFT Commenter
I don't.
Memes
I always like to ask this question, big cat. If he was on the open market right now, how quickly would another team snatch him?
Big Cat
That fast? Wouldn't he be able to get it out of your mouth?
Memes
I mean, you'd kill to have him on the Bears.
Big Cat
Yeah. Kidding me.
Memes
I really like that Super Bowl.
PFT Commenter
I like the way he was winning the Super Bowl.
Big Cat
Yeah.
PFT Commenter
Gets the guys ready for the game. There we go.
Big Cat
What are you, like, driving the bus to the stadium?
PFT Commenter
No, he got.
Memes
He gets the.
PFT Commenter
The team in a position to win pre. Pregame.
Memes
Okay.
Big Cat
I said I would never.
PFT Commenter
I'm not. I would never complain about him for the rest of the year, and I won't. I think he's a good coach.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
You have nothing to complain about today.
Big Cat
So contract extension.
PFT Commenter
I think he's a good coach.
Big Cat
Okay. We need a contract extension for Nick Sirianni. Lock him up.
PFT Commenter
I think he's a good coach.
Memes
Now. That's for the Cowboys. I don't know. I don't know what they do. It sounds like Dak is going to be out for the rest of the year.
Big Cat
Yeah, he got seasoned at the injury. Yeah.
Memes
He's getting surgery on the hamstring. So they're either going to stick with Cooper Rush or they're going to bring in the weirdest. I don't know how they made the decision of. Now it's time to put Trey Lance in the game. At this point, I think they're just.
Big Cat
In a. Fuck it.
Memes
It was like the saddest spark ever because he just put him in for two plays.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
One of they were both rushing plays, right? Yeah, he just ran the ball up the middle.
Big Cat
No, he came in.
Memes
I think that was later.
Big Cat
Yeah, later. Yeah.
Memes
Initially put him in for. For a two play shot in the arm.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
And he did like a draw and then a handoff. And then they're like, okay, get the fuck out of the game. Trey Lance, we don't need you anymore.
Big Cat
Yeah, scram.
Memes
I don't really know what they're doing with them at this point. I don't know what they're doing with their entire setup that they have going because they were not a good team when Dak was playing. But you could have convinced me that they would have been able to figure it out because Dak has a history of showing up and putting some points on the board. With CD Lamb, you could have convinced me that they would have been able to put together a little bit of a run. But now it feels like the run isn't even an issue.
Big Cat
No, there's no run coming.
Memes
Not on the table.
Big Cat
There's no run coming in. In a weird way, I feel like this is like almost Good for Mike McCarthy, Jerry Jones, the whole Cowboys organization. Cause they can just say it was Dak. Even though we know the truth. They were bad before Dak got hurt, but they can say lost season because of Dak.
Memes
Yeah. It is a good scapegoat for Mike McCarthy.
Big Cat
Right.
Memes
For sure.
Big Cat
It's like, yeah, Dak got hurt. Dak didn't get hurt. None of this would have happened. But in reality, it was already happening because Dak already was, you know, not playing well, and the Cowboys as a whole were not playing well. Yeah.
Memes
McCarthy can definitely gaslight the out of that and say that we were on the cusp of turning the season around.
Big Cat
Also, the Cowboys are one of those teams where, like, they have three guys that if any of them get hurt, they're Michael Parsons getting hurt. Him for that stretch.
Memes
Now Parsons is back.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
And I kind of feel bad for him because he's going to have to be out there doing it on his own.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
And they're not going to get wins and he's going to be frustrated. I can't wait for his podcast, though.
Big Cat
Yeah, it's going to be great. By the way, Ky Fair Baron is attempting a 58 yarder.
PFT Commenter
Why do you not go for it?
Big Cat
And he missed it. Yeah, that's stupid. Go for that. Now the Lions can turn around.
PFT Commenter
So dumb.
Big Cat
That was really stupid.
Memes
Dan Campbell would have gone for it.
Big Cat
Dan Campbell would have gone for it. Alliance are going to win this game. And they looked so bad in the first half, but they're just. That's just what they do. They're just a good team, a really good team. Okay, Last game, Cardinals 31, Jets 6. Now, before we get to memes, I would like to talk about the Arizona Cardinals and the. The fact that this team is for real and they're playing incredible ball. I think this is their fourth straight win. Five out of the last six. They have not allowed a touchdown in two straight games. They've not allowed a touchdown in three out of their last four games. Their defense is playing well and Kyler Murray is awesome. He was incredible today. 22 for 24. The ball didn't hit the ground after the first quarter. He was 17 for 17. Everything they wanted to do, they were able to do. He was great. He was throwing it everywhere. He was making play, extending plays with his feet. I feel like the Cardinals, like, this is a tough team that believes in themselves. Also, Buddha Baker was everywhere. He's just. He's an absolute heat seeking missile. I'm impressed with the Cardinals. I think they're really good. By the way, the stats on KYLER Murray going 17 for 17. Yeah. One in 408. Chance, statistically.
Memes
What does that mean?
Big Cat
That was the chance of him getting of having 17 straight completions based on the difficulty of the collisions. Yeah. One in 408.
Memes
That's pretty impressive.
Big Cat
Pretty impressive.
Memes
Yeah. Kyler Murray's playing awesome right now. Also. Trey McBride.
Big Cat
Yeah, it was.
Memes
Somehow he never got brought into the Baby Gronk conversation when we used to call every tight end. I mean, this is before the actual Baby Gronk. Yeah, but every good young tight end was called Baby gronk.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
Trey McBride is baby Gronk.
Big Cat
He's. He's awesome.
Memes
He's that good. Also, we need to remind people that he used to play basketball.
Big Cat
He did.
Memes
Yeah, he used to play basketball.
Big Cat
We always a tight end that played basketball.
Memes
So maybe his Baby Gates.
Big Cat
Okay, Baby Gates. His baby Gate.
Memes
Our baby.
Big Cat
I've never heard of that.
Memes
Yeah, I.
Big Cat
Baby Gates.
Memes
I'm trying to think who else would.
Big Cat
Have Baby Gates makes. Yeah, Baby Graham. Baby Graham.
Memes
Maybe Jimmy, but yeah, he's. He's so fun to watch. Baby Travis jumping people over. Baby Travis.
Big Cat
Baby Travis.
Memes
Baby Travis is cute because you don't.
Big Cat
Really think of any babies named Travis.
Memes
No, you don't.
Big Cat
Like if you had a baby and you're like, hey, here's my baby. It's Travis. Yeah, that's a weird name for a baby.
Memes
Baby Travis comes out of the. Out of the birth canal like it's a half pipe on a skateboard.
Big Cat
Yeah, he's got a.
Memes
Smoking a cigarette.
Big Cat
He's got a monster energy hat on.
Memes
Ready to go the minute he.
Big Cat
He comes out.
Memes
Now, somebody called us in assault stats, so if it is memes, you can go earmuffs.
Big Cat
He's so. He is boiling with rage right now before the Jets. I look at his face, he's mad.
Memes
We're just going to update it. We're going to update the stat real quick. During the Zach Wilson era. Oh, through this point in the season, 10 games, the jets average 106, 176 points and 2,103 passing yards. That's a three season sampled right there. Okay. The 20, 24 jets have scored 177 points and thrown for 2,117 passing yards. So they do have 14 more passing yards and one more point.
Big Cat
Zach Wilson was bad points.
Memes
What do you mean?
Tommy Smokes
Defense, special teams.
Big Cat
Oh, good point. He's trying to. He's calling you a Racini.
Memes
That's. You know what?
Big Cat
That's calling you a Rossini.
Memes
I don't have a breakdown of the.
Big Cat
Point Points, but the yards are very similar.
Tommy Smokes
Yards are similar, but the points.
Memes
Well, there's 14 more. 14 more yards.
Big Cat
Yeah, 14.
Tommy Smokes
I know for a fact the touchdowns are the. Zach Wilson error was defense. Special team.
Big Cat
Okay.
Memes
Okay. Defense, touchdowns. The top five defense.
Big Cat
Memes, I got a question for you. It's a rollback question. RHOP.com promo code, take 20 off your first purchase. QZIPs, polos, hoodies, joggers, shorts. Go to roback.com right now. Promo code, take.

Tommy Smokes
It's over.
Big Cat
Okay. So we're good.
Tommy Smokes
Yeah, we're good. It's over. We didn't even show up. Went out. Very, very sad.
Big Cat
Both of our seasons ended in Arizona.
Tommy Smokes
Yeah, no, it's sad. And we only had two opportunities to even be in this game today, which is even sadder. It was a tackle that Ahmad Gardner couldn't make and then the touchdown that Devonte Adams dropped, and that was it.
Memes
Memes, have a question?
Tommy Smokes
Yeah.
Memes
I want to take your side on something. What was the call for the illegal snap?
Tommy Smokes
We had the sound off, so I'm guessing it was just an inadvertent whistle that the refs were just like, that's on us. But according to Gene Sterritor, he said that the jets were offside and we should have got called for it.
Big Cat
Got it. Memes, I got a question. Y. I noticed you called him Ahmad Gardener.
Tommy Smokes
Yeah, he.
Big Cat
He t. You've stripped him of his sauce.
Tommy Smokes
His name's gone.
Big Cat
You've stripped him of his sauce.
Tommy Smokes
He's not good enough anymore.
Big Cat
Do you think that Ahmad Gardner, formerly known as Sauce Gardener, has maybe suffered from Henry Lockwood disease?
Hank
Was coming.
Big Cat
I mean, it's. It's true. Guy gets obsessed with g golf so much, loses his powers at his job.
Tommy Smokes
I think so. And the big contracts that were out there in preseason got to his head, being like, oh, I'm going to make this much money.
Memes
And then you think other. You think. You think he got fat, happy, and complacent based on other people's contracts?
Big Cat
Yes.
Tommy Smokes
And the fact that he was all pro the first two seasons.
Big Cat
And what about Henry Lockwood?
Hank
Men can't have hobbies anymore. It's sad.
Big Cat
Well, I mean, it's just playing so much golf. If golf gets in the way of your job, I think it's something like you. It would be. That hasn't gotten away with mom, still.
Tommy Smokes
We're talking about quarterback.
Big Cat
We're talking about Ahmad Gardner.
Hank
They're on the field.
Big Cat
We're talking about you.
Hank
They're showing up on the field every week.
Big Cat
We're not talking about you. We're talking about a mod.
Hank
He's playing every week.
Big Cat
Yeah, not well. So is that the. If you. If you get obsessed with golf. Golf, all you gotta do is show up.
Hank
I don't. I don't see the correlation.
Memes
Well, he started playing poorly after he started playing golf.
Big Cat
Yeah, similar to you.
Hank
No.
Big Cat
Started playing.
Hank
He could have played golf as much as he'd played golf. And there's probably people that play way more golf than he does. He just happened to share it on social media because he was trying to engage with the fans of his team.
Memes
Oh, so he's doing it for his job job?
Hank
No, it. That the mistake was posting about it.
Big Cat
Got it.
Hank
If you're gonna have a hobby, never share it because people will just hold it against you for as long as you live.
Memes
Can you offer some tips to him on how to golf and not get caught golfing?
Hank
Just do what you do and enjoy it for yourself. And don't, you know, let bring other people in, because even though you think it might be nice to share with people, like, what you enjoy doing, they're going to hold it against you in the future.
Memes
So maybe, like, don't maybe stop updating all your rounds onto 18 birdies.
Big Cat
Do you think Ahmad Gardner ever went up to Robert Salah over the summer, was like, hey, do you need me for practice this afternoon?
Hank
Yeah, probably.
Memes
You think he messed up his hips or his hips as fluid as they were?
Big Cat
Oh, that's a good point.
Memes
I don't think his hips are as fluid.
Hank
I don't know what the issue is. I blame the coach.
Big Cat
The jets are bad.
Hank
I blame the leadership.
Big Cat
The jets are bad. This is. Should Aaron Rodgers retire?
Memes
Is he going to.
Big Cat
I don't know. Should he? I. I don't know. Oh, my God. The Lions just won. Ridiculous.
Memes
Lines are invincible.
Hank
Two, they are snuck in.
Memes
That's crazy. You win a game, throw five interceptions. That must feel pretty good. Like, what a relief that, like getting away with a crime.
Big Cat
They played like dog. I mean, Jared had five interceptions. Mark of a really good team. All right, so should Aaron Rodgers retire?
Tommy Smokes
I don't know.
Memes
Should he play for the rest of the season?
Tommy Smokes
I think so. Well, if this is his last season, I'm dumb. I'm done with everybody on the team. But he should just play it out. Yeah, he should retire. Just retire.
Memes
Wait, right now?
Tommy Smokes
Not right now. And play, Play out. Play out your last year. Have catch with your buddy Devante.
Big Cat
Okay.
Tommy Smokes
That's it. Get rid of everybody.
Big Cat
Get rid of everybody. It'd be funny.
Tommy Smokes
Well, the young guys.
Memes
If he retired during a game.
Big Cat
That.
Tommy Smokes
Would be the most Aaron Rodgers thing.
Big Cat
Yeah, very much. Yeah. He could retire on McAfee show on Tuesday. Yeah, yeah. Memes. I mean, listen, and you said it when we were talking about the Bears were the same.
Tommy Smokes
The exact same.
Big Cat
You're. I mean, like, I actually don't even. I don't know if we're behind you now or ahead of you because we have a quarterback, but he's been bad and probably ruined. So we still need like. But. But you're going to get rid of Rogers and you're going to start a new quarterback. I don't even know where.
Tommy Smokes
So history says for the jets, we get rid of Aaron Rodgers, he goes to the Vikings.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Tommy Smokes
We go to back to back AFC championship games and then restart again.
Big Cat
Okay, that's you. You trade for that.
Tommy Smokes
I'm a trade for that in a second.
Big Cat
Yeah. What are you gonna say, Hank?
Hank
What if we just do a trade?
Big Cat
What?
Hank
Caleb Williams, Aaron Rodgers, fresh start for both.
Big Cat
I don't want. I don't want Aaron Rodgers. I don't. I mean, he's old, dude. What if he had one completion over 10 air yards for Aaron Rodgers?
Memes
Okay, so how about this memes. Season comes to an end and Roger says, please trade me to the Minnesota Vikings. I want to go out like Brett Favre did. And you trade them for Sam Darnold.
Tommy Smokes
Sam Darnold's a free agent next year.
Memes
Okay. You bring in Sam Darnold.
Tommy Smokes
No, I toy with that idea to my friends. They told me to off.
Memes
But. No, but you wanted it.
Tommy Smokes
You toyed with for a second. But then today was just a. Was a. That's what he would be on the Jets.
Memes
But what if he came back? He was good, Sam.
Tommy Smokes
He won't.
Big Cat
He.
Tommy Smokes
He just won't. We need a coach. We need Mike Vrabel.
Big Cat
Yeah. So can we pull up memes, tweets from the game? Because he was firing off. He was in his feels. He. I saw one where it was like, you should have just hired this. You should have just had this be the interim. And it was a picture of Nathaniel Hackett.
Memes
I actually don't hate that take.
Big Cat
Yeah. Because like, it would have just been easier. Yeah, it would have been so much easier. Let's see. All right, so here's one. Hey, hey. Kev, how was your weekend? And then it's Frank from Always Sunny, just hanging by a rope with a Jets jersey on. Then the next one is. Should have just made this fucking idiot interim just so everyone could have hated him instead of Jeff. That's Nathaniel Hackett. That's just a retweet.
Memes
Bobby Boucher of a Bobby Boucher parody count.
PFT Commenter
Wait, you have a retweet from himself.
Big Cat
Oh, you have a. You have a burner.
Tommy Smokes
Yeah, for videos.
Big Cat
Okay, so it says this is the worst jets defensive performance of all time. Clean house. Fire every single person. Release every single guy in a one year deal. See what the. Young's Young. Young's got.
Tommy Smokes
Young guys.
Big Cat
Young's got. And restart. Season over. Why you didn't want to do that on your main.
Tommy Smokes
No. Well, it's a meme account. You gotta post a meme. I didn't have anything for that.
Big Cat
He had. We had three drives. It was a meme. And then he. For Ahmaud Gardner. He said, keep golfing guy. That's brutal. Hank, you gotta stand up for him. You guys stand up for a mod guy. Kip, you took away the sauce nickname.
Memes
Oh, then you got a model plane.
Big Cat
Crashing, just blowing up.
Memes
That's a Viggen.
Big Cat
That's a model jet.
Memes
That plane is a Viggen made by Saab.
Big Cat
You got. You got.
Memes
Yeah, I nailed it.
Big Cat
Speaking fluent German. If you think we me and that was Shane Hockey. All right, memes. Well, here's a statue. Most losses since the start of the 2017 season. Jets 86, Giants 85. That's crazy. Joke of a city. Holy liberty. 1, 171 losses since the start of 2017 between the two teams. That's crazy.
Memes
Yeah, that's the thing that always fools you about the Giants. So the Giants. I. I would trade positions in a second with what? The Giants.
Big Cat
Two Super Bowls.
Memes
Yes, two Super Bowls. And then you go through, you know, years and years of ass, but you still have those two Super Bowls against one of the most successful dynasties of all time. We'll wait to see if they are the most after the Chiefs, but I would trade that in a heartbeat.
Big Cat
Yeah, easily. But you're right. The Giants have fooled everyone because they won those two Super Bowls and their historic franchise. They have been so ass for so long now. Yeah, it's Asville. It's Asville.
Memes
So what do you say that you should do with. With Sauce or. Excuse me, you don't call him Sauce. You call him Ahmad Gravy Gardener because he's from New Jersey For a second.
Big Cat
I thought, like, that was a different player.
Tommy Smokes
Yeah, no, that's him.
Memes
So what do you do?
Tommy Smokes
He's got to earn a second contract. Gotta get in the weight room. You gotta. Gotta break down film. You gotta. Gotta learn. Gotta get better.
Big Cat
What about the simulator?
Tommy Smokes
Simulator. You got to burn it to the ground.
Big Cat
Okay.
Tommy Smokes
No golf. Put in your next contract. No go golf. You get to watch golf.
Big Cat
He's actually a really good golfer, too. He learned and got really good really fast.
Tommy Smokes
Yeah, no, he's sick.
Big Cat
So I guess he's not like Hank.
Tommy Smokes
Or he could golf. Just. No. No streaming.
Big Cat
No streaming there.
Tommy Smokes
He had a moment over the summer where he was just on every single person's livestream.
Big Cat
Oh.
Tommy Smokes
Like everything.
Big Cat
Sounds like he's got hobbies.
Tommy Smokes
Too many hobbies. Less hobbies. Football.
Memes
So even in the off season, no golf.
Tommy Smokes
Did you football?
Memes
All football all the time.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Tommy Smokes
We need an all pro corner.
Memes
I do love the take, though, that he got bad because other cornerbacks got paid.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
And he got. He got pre pocket watching. He got pre lazy.
Tommy Smokes
He's like, I'm going to make $100 million. But that's not the case anymore. So now you got to get back in the film room. No golf, pocket watching.
Big Cat
Okay. Sunday Night Football. We just watched the end. I don't think I've ever seen his field goal be as close to hitting the upright and not hit the upright. The last two, I think the last two. Yeah.
Memes
And they were on opposite sides. See, one right, one left, left.
Big Cat
That was. I mean, the lions were down 16 and they had five interceptions. Jared was off all night, and they win the game. Mark of a really good team. Also, I don't know what to make of the Texans because you shouldn't lose a game when you're up 16 at home and you have five interceptions.
Memes
No, it's going to look very bad for them. And in the first half, Jared Goff, like, there was something up about he. He didn't look comfortable. Obviously they were hitting him a little bit. They were. They were putting a lot of pressure on him. But sometimes even when he had clean pockets, he was like throwing them into the ground, ducking away early on throws something that he hasn't done all season.
Big Cat
Yeah. I mean, the Texans defense is very good. And it felt like they made a very concerted effort to make Jared throw and try and try to bottle up the running game as much as they could. And they did a pretty good job doing it. Cause the lions only had 3.3 yards per carry, which is Very low for a team like that. And it, like, it did feel like Jared had to throw a ton of times and he was not good tonight. But wins a win and the Lions team is just good.
Memes
I think it's good for the team that they won this way. In a weird way, like the fact that their defense got turnovers or defense put them in a position where they.
Big Cat
Defense played well in the second half.
Memes
Their defense played really well when their offense was struggling is going to make. That's going to make things better going forward for that team.
Big Cat
That first half, C.J. stroud was absolutely slinging the rock. It looked like everything was working. The Texans didn't score in the second half. They did not score a point. The Lions, I mean, we had the perfect coaching interview when Dan Campbell started. The second half was like, we need to get a turnover. Boom, turnover. Unfortunately, Jared then threw a turnover back. But yeah, their. Their defense bucked up and really good win for the Lions. And I don't. The Texans are going to win the AFC south because it's the AFC South. I don't know. Maybe when we get Nico. When they get Nico Collins back, we can see what they look like. Did you like the jerseys, by the way? I did.
Memes
I did not like these. Oh, I actually like the jaguar shell whites better than I like.
Big Cat
Oh, I like the candy apple helmets.
Memes
No, they were.
Big Cat
They looked fast.
Memes
The Battle Red. Here's why I didn't like the battle Red, Big Cat. Because it's against the Lions. I feel like you have to save those for an AFC opponent.
Big Cat
Yeah, maybe. I just. I thought they looked. I thought they. I thought their first half was because of their jerseys.
Memes
Yeah.
Big Cat
Like, they came out flying everywhere.
Memes
And I actually like the other ones. The. The dark ones.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
You didn't like. I like those on the Texans a little bit better.
Big Cat
The H Town Blues.
Memes
The H Town Blues.
Big Cat
H Town Blues. Yeah, the Lions are really good. I. I mean, let's do a quick. A quick. How many teams are you comfortable saying could win the Super Bowl? Right this side. Second.
Memes
Detroit Lions.
Big Cat
Detroit Lions.
Memes
Kansas City Chiefs.
Big Cat
All right, so let's start with nfc. Detroit Lions.
Memes
Yep. Philadelphia.
Big Cat
I think I'm gonna say the Philadelphia Eagles.
Hank
No, I.
PFT Commenter
Why.
Big Cat
Why can't the Philadelphia Eagles win the Super Bowl?
Hank
They can make a playoff run. They're not going to win the Super Bowl. They're not going to beat the Chiefs. They're not going to beat the Bills, they're not going to beat the Lions.
PFT Commenter
Why?
Hank
They don't have a good enough offense. They don't have a good enough defense. They don't have a good enough coaching.
Big Cat
Where.
Memes
Where.
PFT Commenter
Where is the deficiency on offense and where's the deficiency on defense?
Big Cat
You're getting grilled.
Hank
I'm just saying, in a matchup against the lines.
PFT Commenter
Oh, wait. The running back, the running game, the receivers, their offensive line.
Hank
Jalen Hurts is dealing with an ankle. You got a quarterback?
Memes
Yes, at the training room.
Hank
Coaching matters. Yeah, a lot.
Big Cat
I would say that's the deficiency of the Eagles. That is the deficiency. No, you can't say that. Matter. Max.
PFT Commenter
No, he's.
Big Cat
You can't say that.
PFT Commenter
Yeah, no, he's good.
Memes
You want. You want to give him an extension?
Big Cat
I can't wait till Dick Sirianni does something stupid. We're going to be live streaming. We're doing a special Thursday night football Eagles commanders in the PMT studio. I think Max will sit in my seat and I'll sit next to Hank on the couch. But you're. You can't say anything bad about Nick Siriani.
PFT Commenter
Nope.
Big Cat
Okay, So I. I'll throw the Eagles in there.
Memes
I said the Eagles. I fully believe that, given what they have on all their roster, is definitely good enough to do it.
Big Cat
Yeah.
PFT Commenter
Fangio has completely changed this defense.
Memes
Vic Fangio's boss. I don't know about him.
Big Cat
Any other teams in the nfc? I unfortunately think maybe the Packers.
Memes
I don't know.
Big Cat
I don't know.
Memes
But I'm just saying I'm not putting them on.
Big Cat
My Jordan Love gets healthy. I think they're going to be really good.
Memes
I think the 49ers.
Big Cat
Okay.
Hank
I can see the Bucks making a run. They could beat the Eagles.
Big Cat
They did. They killed you guys. He got you there. And then in the afc, I think it's the Chiefs, the Bills, the Ravens, Steelers, Steelers, Chargers. No, we put a future on them.
Memes
I think. I think that they could win a playoff game.
Big Cat
Yeah, I think so. I think the Steelers. No, I don't think the Texans. I. I think this. I think the Steelers are in that group.
Memes
The Texans haven't looked as dominant this year ever as they did last year.
Big Cat
No, their offense has been. Bro. Like, their offense looked great in the first half and then it went back to broken. Yeah.
Memes
What if the jets get it all turned around, though?
Big Cat
Oh, what if the jets get a pickup of someone who's out there? What if the jets sign leave on Bell?
Memes
That'd be good.
Big Cat
Dynamic jets might not. Let's keep the jets in there.
Memes
Yeah, jets could still do it.
Big Cat
Mm.
Memes
They got Aaron freaking Rogers. They got Aaron freaking Aaron freaking Rodgers, man.
Big Cat
Aaron freaking Rodgers.
Memes
He chose them.
Big Cat
And I do feel like after Week 10, it feels like the playoff picture on both AFC and NFC is now. So there's seven playoff spots, obviously. I think it's it's definitely whittled down to nine teams in the afc. It cuts off at the Bengals. So Jets, Patriots, Dolphins, Browns, Titans, Raiders, Jaguars all out. And I would say it's the same thing in the NFC where it's, I guess maybe the Seahawks, but the Bears, Cowboys, Saints, Panthers, Giants all out. We'll see about the Seahawks and Bucks.
Memes
Yeah, the the NFC west is going to be just a rock fight between all four teams for the rest of the year.

Hank
My who's back of the week is.
Memes
Coach K. Yeah, this is mine too. Yeah, let's talk about it.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Hank
The Lakers struggling. There's been, you know, some, some turmoil early on with their season. JJ Redick cussing out. Out.
Big Cat
What's their record?
Hank
They're 5 and 4. They're about to be 6 and 4. They're beating the Trailblazers right now in the fourth quarter. Okay, so LeBron tweeted on Sunday morning, I just woke up from having a dream. I was playing for Duke, for Coach K inside Cameron Indoor Stadium. That was exclamation point. It was insane in there. Told Coach K it was an honor to suit up for him. And he said the same thing back to me.
Big Cat
This is a dream.
Hank
He's such a legend. Then it turned right into a concert. Snoop and Dre were performers and they was doing the song. The next episode, the roof inside Cameron damn near came off. Haha. Then my alarm went off and I woke up.
Memes
All right, so I think this is this.
Hank
LeBron wants Coach K as the coach. Lakers.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Hank
Out.
Big Cat
Yes.
Hank
Because it was a dream. Coach K. And it was about Duke, JJ's team. Like.
Big Cat
Yep.
Memes
Okay, so I got a question, because when I read this, I thought a couple of things. One, one, it sounds like he's dreaming about Coach K being his coach. Obviously. Two, he also might be lying about the dream and then using the whole I had a dream thing to say what he wanted to say in real life, but do it under the pretense of explaining what his dream was.
Big Cat
Yes.
Memes
Which one? Yeah, which one do you think is worse for JJ Redick if he actually had to?
Big Cat
Second one.
Memes
Or if he's lying about having a dream?
Big Cat
I think you can't control your subconscious. I Think he, he. I think he's thought about it. Like jj, he obviously pushed for JJ to be the coach, and then things have not started well. I think he's gonna ask for Coach K to come and be a mentor. Not the head coach, but be a mentor on the side. Like be one of JJ's assistant coaches.
Memes
He's going to force a mentor onto his boss.
Big Cat
Yes.
Memes
That's such a funny.
Big Cat
I think. I think it's going to happen. I think there's going to be a point in the season where maybe he won't sit on the sideline, but Coach K is definitely going to have to come visit and do, like, speeches and, and. And try to get the, the boys going.
Hank
Like Jeff Van Gundy, kind of like. Yeah, right on. He's part of organizations and around the team.
Big Cat
He's actually an assistant coach now. Right.
Hank
But like, when he left espn, he was with the Celtics, but he wasn't an official assistant coach.
Memes
Yeah, a consultant.
Big Cat
Like.
Memes
Like Doc, right?
Big Cat
Yeah, Doc.
Memes
Doc, like Doc Rivers, currently with the Bucks. Currently with the Bucks.
Big Cat
Yeah. Yeah, no, he's currently consulting with the Bucks. He's not head coaching them.
Memes
No, but Doc.
Big Cat
No, I know. I'm joking.
Memes
Yeah, that's.
Big Cat
They're bad.
Memes
That is literally what he did.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
So what's maybe the biggest lie in this is when he said. Told Coach K was an honor to suit up for him, and he said the same thing back to me. Like, they definitely kissed in the stream.
Big Cat
Yes.
Memes
And that's what he wrote instead of the kiss.
Big Cat
He probably was. We. Yeah, he's wearing a Duke jersey. Probably took.
Hank
I also don't even know what that means. Like, is that like a situation, like when you're, you know, getting on a flight and. And the lady at the counter says, hey, have a nice flight. And out of instinct you say, oh, you too. Like, he said, it's an honor to coach. Suit up for you, coach. And Coach K was like, you too, LeBron. It's an honor to suit up for you.
Memes
Yeah, put the suit on.
Hank
Yeah. Like, that doesn't even make sense.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
Was he wearing the necktie and the, the jacket or was he wearing the, like, late stage, late model coach?
Hank
It's an honor to suit up as your coach. Yeah.
Big Cat
Yes.
Memes
He was wearing, like a LeBron jersey.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
And then the, I mean, the concert afterwards, only LeBron.
Hank
I mean, that's also something. If you were making up a lie, like, you throw in a little bit of a. An extra wrinkle to, like, throw people off the scent.
Memes
And also because he probably realized when he tweeted this out, he's like, that didn't really wrap up my story that well. I need to, like, include something else to make it a banger to go out. He's like, oh, also, Snoop and Dre were there, and then the roof came off.
Big Cat
Yeah. Yeah. It's. I mean, it's very. It's just very funny that he hand selected J.J. redick, and we're 11 games in. And again, whether it's subconscious or he's just lying, he. He wants Coach K. Yeah. So fast. Only LeBron.
Memes
I think maybe he had this dream a while ago. A long time ago.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
And then he just brought it up now because he wants to put the screws to jj.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
Make him feel the heat. I fully believe that LeBron had a dream where he thanked Coach K and then Coach K thanked him back.
Big Cat
Yes.
Memes
At some point that happened, but I just don't think it was last night that it happened.
Big Cat
All right, so that was your who's back?
Memes
That was my who's back.
Big Cat
Yeah. Okay. My who's back? I didn't. I can't believe you missed. You didn't say this one. Pfd. You actually might have. It might have been happening during Pop Punk, which I heard it was great. You got one more show, right?
Memes
We're playing on Friday the 20th. LSU at Fred's.
Big Cat
Fred's is the best place on earth. Mark is the best guy on earth.
Memes
I can't wait.
Big Cat
We got a new throat goat.
Memes
What?
Big Cat
Yeah. So on Friday night, Selena Powell.
Hank
Yep.
Big Cat
Who is she? An adult entertainment actress. She said she tweeted. All I'm saying is my throat. The reason the Heat will beat the Nuggets tomorrow. Y'all basketball games are more fun when you fuck the player before the game. Lol. Go number two. That's Terry Rozier. And I believe the Heat beat the Nuggets. Did they not? They didn't, but they covered. And Terry Rozier definitely went over his point total.
Hank
Correct.
Memes
I like that.
Big Cat
Yeah. So she tweeted that before the game too. She was just like, hey, just so everyone knows, I fucked Terry Rozier last night, so he's going to be awesome.
Memes
It's such a short sighted move on her part.
Big Cat
Why?
Memes
Because if you don't tell anybody about, then you'll. You'll get repeat business.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Memes
Tell his friends.
Big Cat

We came nowhere close and now we have 500 still unables.
Big Cat
Kind of a mistake by us.
Memes
I think we got through 200 uncrustables.
Big Cat
200 in a week.
Memes
Here's where we went wrong. You gotta. Either you're. You're learning something from your mistakes or you're just treading water. We needed to order the uncrustables and shipments that would come like every other day because after about three days in the fridge, they started to get super stale. And then only the real diehards were still going for them.
Big Cat
And we have like a ton more in the freezer.
Hank
Turns out we don't have like massive athletes burning a ton of calories at our facility all day every day.
Big Cat
Good point.
Hank
While also eating uncrustables. Us just snacking on a day is not equivalent to.
Big Cat
There's a couple days where was full of crustables. I was like, this is. I've had too many. I had like four or five. And I was like, this is gross. So yeah, we. We failed. We failed. So maybe we need to do this while also running like a mini training camp or high. We should. Next year we should do. We should. We should do our own training camp. Get like a full trainer for like an entire week. Do two a days.
Memes
Worst idea you've ever had.
Big Cat
Yeah, no, I agree, but I'm just. I'm feeling. I'm starting to feel the. The weight of football season. Starting to feel full all the time. I'm starting to take three shits a day, which is never good when you're like. When you fill the bowl fully three times a day, you're like, that's. That's overeating. I ate too much.
Hank
Tom Brennaman.
Big Cat
Oh, yeah. Is that your just favorite moment of all time?
Tommy Smokes
Yeah, I was waiting for it all day.
Big Cat
Yeah.
Tommy Smokes

PFT Commenter
Yes, yes, yes. That video was one of the saddest things.
Big Cat
Yes, it was.
Memes
I. I should have brought it up on. On Thursday night after the game was over. But what Kirk Herbstreet did, calling the game on Thursday night, actually, it takes an incredible amount of guts to do it. Like he was. He had to be like the saddest person on earth.
Big Cat
Not only that on Thursday, but then playing that video on Saturday on game day, which was just an absolute tear jerke. Yeah.
Memes
And then he had to talk about it later on during the game.
Big Cat
To do the game. Yeah, it's. Yeah. I don't know how he did that.
Memes
Yeah, it sucks. It sucks. I was thinking about Kirk when all that was going down.
Big Cat
All.
Memes
The one thing that somebody told me when Leroy passed away that actually like made things better is like at some point when you think about your dog, you will start to smile before you get sad. And you just have to work until you get to that point. And it'll be a good point once he gets there. But yeah, what, What Kirk did was like, could never have done that.
Big Cat
There was an old Peter King column that he wrote when his dog passed away. And it was. I can't remember the exact line, but it was basically like, the only way to not feel this pain is to never have a dog. And what a hollow life that would be. Like, that's the only way to not feel. You know, when your dog passes away and it's. It's the truth. Like the alternative is not having a dog. And no one wants that.
