The Lions are getting four and a half for entertainment purposes only. 8, 7, 7, 3, DP show email address tpdanpatrick.com Twitter handle @DP Show it was a wild weekend. Now, college football, not as inspiring and dramatic, but pro football, certainly those one o' clock games towards the end and you had a lot of drama, block kicks, we had punt returns, we had interception returns, fumble returns, a little bit of everything there. And maybe one of the worst beats ever in the history of the NFL with the Eagles coming back to cover against the Rams. It's one of those where and having been a former gambler, I've already chalked that up. Now I want to see if I could get some action on the 435 game. Like I already know I'm winning this one. Now all of a sudden I'm going, you know what, maybe I'll put nickel on this. You know, yeah, I got some money to play with there. Maybe I put a dime on this. And then all of a sudden the only way you can lose is if they block the kick and they run it back for a touchdown, which is exactly what they did. That's one of the worst beats in the history of beats and it's a 300 pound lineman who's going to score the touchdown there. Wow. But the Eagles come back to beat the Rams. Chargers over the Broncos, the Browns over the Packers. And that's one of those where it's 10 to nothing. And I kept thinking, what's going on with the Packers? Like it just, you know, Brown's defense played well, packers defense played well. And it was just one of those games where that's where in the survivor pool, where you go, yeah, you know what, I'll take the Packers. I, I can get through this week. I got the packers this week. And then all of a sudden, okay, it's 10, three and then okay, there's an interception. Okay, now it's 10, 10. Oh boy. And then all of a sudden we have a game winning field goal and Green Bay was 300 and oh, I think when, okay, here's the stat. So the Brown score, 13 in the final 3 minutes and 38 seconds. Green Bay had won 300 consecutive games when they were up by at least 10 points in the final 4 minutes of a game. The last time they lost a game like this before yesterday, the Baltimore Colts in 1967 when Vince Lombardi was the packers head coach and Don Shula was the Colts head coach. Oh, yeah. Stat of the day brought to you by Panini America. Every team is allowed one of those games and sometimes you can afford a loss like that. Now there are other teams where you go, boy, that's going to come back and haunt you when it comes to winning a division, home field advantage. And you start to wonder. And now I think you get a pretty good idea of how good your team is. You know, three games in now I got a pretty good idea. Now I don't know about the Texans. I'm watching and I'm thinking that defense is one of the top three defenses in the NFL. They're Owen 3 and CJ Stroud. Pick up a white courtesy phone. They're just like Jacksonville. I still don't know. I mean, I'm watching and I'm going okay. A lot of drops. You know, Trevor Lawrence, you know, his numbers should have been a whole lot better. I think the Broncos are still going to be okay. And that's a good win for the Chargers. The Bears over the Cowboys. I have no idea about either one of those teams. I mean, I know Dallas has a terrible defense and could probably use a pass rusher. When you can't sack a quarterback who was sacked 68 times last year, that seems like that's a problem. And Caleb Williams looked pretty good. Had some fun. That defensive know the secondary. They paid some guys. Bland and Diggs got paid and they got roughed up there. But I don't know how good Dallas is. I think Dallas. And then CD Lamb goes out with an injury. Dak had a couple of interceptions. But the Bears, I mean, the Bears deep. It's not the monsters of the midway. The Bucks. Baker Mayfield's getting into that. Hey, game on the line. Ball in his hands. He's almost like where Russell Wilson was seven or eight years ago. It's like, all right, just give me the ball. And he's a closer. It's probably the best compliment I can give him. He's a closer. And he did that yesterday with the Jets. Vikings over the Bengals. This was all about the Vikings defense. They were like, it doesn't matter who's quarterbacking. We're coming after you. And Carson Wentz is fine. You know, it's not that much of a drop off, but I. He didn't have to do that much. Mike Holt's over the Titans. Titans are bad. And I kept thinking, you know, they probably could use a better coach. Oh, that's right. They had one with Mike Brable. They could have had a. Maybe a good running. Oh, yeah, they did have a good running back in there. A wide receiver. Oh, that's right. He's in Chicago. But the Colts look great. Jonathan Taylor, is there a better player with less publicity? If I look at the ratio in the last four or five years with him, he's. He's pretty good. He's pretty good. Seahawks role. I have Chiefs over the Giants. Chiefs are boring. I mean, they should have been down at halftime. It's just. There's no excitement. I mean, that was a rough game. And Chris Collinsworth, man, does he love himself some Patrick Mahomes. It's like, chris, come on, come on. Slow down. Oh. Felt like it was a Hallmark greeting card. Every time he went back to pass, it was like, he's great, but he wasn't great. It's like, okay, all right. A backwards no look pass. But then they didn't complete it. But no other quarterback could have. Like, what? Who else could do that?
- [10:37]
Lewis Riddick
Throw a crappy pass and then recover.
- [10:40]
Dan Patrick
Oh, man, college football. I watched a lot of the Clemson, Syracuse game. Texas Tech dominated Utah. Michigan over Nebraska, Oklahoma and Auburn. The Indiana, Indiana game. Say goodbye to Illinois. You lose by 53 points. Oh, my God. LSU, Miami, Oregon, Florida State, Texas, they roll. But Indiana, I said Indiana, could you Know, put up points. I didn't know they were going to put up that many points. The Clemson loss to Syracuse, once again, Lewis Riddick was on the call with that and Dabo Sweeney, you can't have that kind of performance out of your team at home after you have a press conference where you're calling out the media for calling you out. Mike Gundy with Oklahoma State, I mean you're seeing some of these coaches and, and this is what Nick Saban was talking about. You have to, to get up to speed with today's game. And I'm not talking about the actual speed of a player or the game. I'm talking about you got to get up and understand. Exactly. You got to be aggressive. And talking to somebody about Mike Gundy, that he has not been aggressive with recruiting, you know, Dabo with nil transfer portal. I mean this drove Saban out of the game. But you, you can't sit there and have your head in the sand and go, ah, you know what, we're still going to get great players. You are, but so are other teams and they get them by just paying them. And you know, we talk about firing a coach, you know, Mike Gundy, well, you also fire the assistance as well. So it's not just a coach. You're gonna have to fire an entire staff there. When you talk about the money. And I know somebody can write a check for this, but they have been non competitive and that's what's surprising Syracuse, Syracuse played well. They, they, they were the better team and it showed. But Clemson at home, man, that's one of those what? And I'm watching, I'm going, okay, where's Cade? Club Nick. And you know, and he threw I think three touchdown passes. But you're losing at home. Just surprised. And even Nebraska, I watched that and I thought Nebraska would win. I thought may, okay, maybe like when are they making this turnaround here? You know, the days that Tom Osborne are long gone. Long gone. And it shows. Nebraska is just a team. They are, they're just a team. And you know, Oklahoma's had its moments. I mean those, they, those were top five teams for a long, long, long, long time. But Oklahoma, big win against Auburn. But Nebraska, those are the games you gotta win. I mean Michigan's not a great team, but Nebraska, if we're waiting for them, we may be waiting a lot longer than we thought.

Paulie
Yeah, Paulie, that Clemson Syracuse game, it got interrupted by one of those lightning delays and that was like the best thing to happen to Clemson. People turned the Channel.
- [13:54]
Dan Patrick
That's the only way they stop Syracuse. Yeah. Best and worst of the weekend, as always on Monday. What you saw that you liked, you didn't like. We'll get to your phone call Seaton. Got a poll question for us for the first hour of the program?
- [14:07]
Lewis Riddick
Yeah. I'm calling this the come back to haunt you game from this weekend. What does the comeback to haunt you game this weekend say? The Broncos losing to the Chargers couldn't come back to haunt them. Falcons, Panthers, what the heck happened? What the heck happened?
- [14:25]
Dan Patrick
I. I'll give you one of those games a year, but you can't even. And then they let go their longtime kicker and coup. And then Romo comes. They should had Tony Romo kicking. They might have had better results there. They. You can't get a field goal and then you bench Michael Penix Jr III. What other.
- [14:51]
Lewis Riddick
Let's see. We got the Rams. Eagles.
- [14:55]
Dan Patrick
Yeah. Yeah. I don't know if that loss, you know, you, you lose and you had a chance to win. I don't know. Sometimes losses count like one and a half losses. You know, does that hurt you home field? Do you win your division? You know, Chargers have won all three games. They have been against divisional opponents. I believe so. You, you have. I mean, that's great momentum there. And when you have one of those losses, does when, you know, at the end of the year, is Denver looking at that and going, you know, that they might look at the cold scape, because that's the one, you know, they're. They, they should have won and didn't. That might be the one where you go, hey, that cost us. Yes. Todd.

DoorDash Advertiser
Can good or very good teams have moral victories? We always focus on the bad teams with a moral victory. Like for the Rams. That's not a moral victory, say. Well, it was against the super bowl champs on their field.
- [15:48]
Dan Patrick
They should have won the game.
- [15:49]
DoorDash Advertiser
When you're up 26, 7.
- [15:50]
Dan Patrick
Yes, yes. I think if, if it would been reversed and you know, they were, they were the ones coming back. And then you go, okay, Mammy, you had a pretty good stand against a really good team. I mean, the Eagles weren't anything special until they needed to be. And then Jalen hurts all of a sudden, you know, look great and leading them to three touchdowns. But to lose like that, that, that's, that's one of those. It stays with you. It feels like a little bit longer. Who else is on the list? Eden?
- [16:19]
Lewis Riddick
On that list? I have Packers, Browns and Patriots, Steelers.
- [16:28]
Dan Patrick
Oh, boy. Well, if you believe in the Patriots then that's, that's probably the game that's going to keep you out of the playoffs. And you have the fumbles and they are, you know, you're, you're scoring, you're moving the ball on the Steelers. Oh, yeah, that one's tough. Those are tough. That's tough.
- [16:48]
Lewis Riddick
That's not ideal.
- [16:49]
Dan Patrick
The pack, the packers probably, you know, that, that won't hurt them. Now maybe home field advantage, that, that's, whenever I see a loss that it is that bad for a team that's that good, then I always think, okay, are you on the road in the second round of the playoffs? You know, and, and, and that's where championships are, you know, won and lost. When you think about did we have home field advantage? Yeah. Now the Chiefs have gone wherever they need to go. They can win. But some of these other teams, like this game with the Lions and the Ravens tonight, this might be one of those home field advantage type things. Patrick Mahomes, he doesn't care where he has to play. He just play him anywhere. He'll, he'll just win. Is that your Chris? That's your Chris Collins. I mean, who else is going to win on the road like this? Look at this guy.
- [17:33]
Paulie
Very serviceable.
- [17:34]
Dan Patrick
Chris Collins. Yes. Paulie.
- [17:39]
Paulie
Going back to the Patriots, five turnovers. They're one and three. They could be three. And oh, and the next few weeks, the Patriots have the Panthers, the Saints, the Titans and the Browns. With the Bills mixed in there but a bunch of winnable games, they could have been in great position. Now they kind of cooled off.

I've been a Danette for many years. As a matter of fact, it's one of the longest relationships I've ever had in my life. Longer than actually my wife. And one of the things I've learned in that time is that most athletes elevate performance through better nutrition. And here's the thing. Your pets aren't much different. Your pets need quality protein to build lean muscle, balanced nutrition to maintain energy and proper hydration to support recovery and thrive regardless of their preferred form of exercise. That's why gold medalists like Simone Biles and Caleb Dressel, they trust new low for their own pets and and they understand that champion performance starts with what goes into their body. Nulo is loaded with premium protein that builds and maintains muscle. Their low carb formula prevents those midday crashes. So your pet stays in the game all day. And their mix and match options help you customize nutrition for your pet's specific needs, like a pro athlete's meal plan. The bottom line is champions don't leave performance to chance. And neither should you. My dogs, I have got three of them and they absolutely love new load. You should visit nulo.com that's n u l o.com to fuel. Incredible.

My Colts finally punted. They don't have a turnover yet this year. I like these public apologies by analysts to Danny Dimes. I mean, it's early, they're playing well. I thought that he would be a Pro bowl caliber quarterback this year. And you know, Jonathan Taylor's been great. Yes, Marvin, comeback player of the year. Well, I'd say right now probably so. But they finally punted on their third drive. So that was a streak of 19 drives without a punt. That's the longest such streak to begin a season since at least 2000. This is the station out of the day. Chiefs fan Melissa E. Thank you. Brought to you by Panini America, the official trading cards of the program. Lewis Riddick on the call for Syracuse win at Clemson. He's got Florida State, Virginia coming up on Friday on the mothership and then he'll be doing one of the Monday night games. Jets and the Dolphins also on espn. So Louis, what I love about you as an analyst, what when I'm listening to you call the Syracuse Clemson game is you don't Hide your distaste for something. When something is bad or something bothers you, you don't try to mask that. You groan sometimes. I appreciate that. So very enjoyable listening to you guys do that game. At what point did you think Syracuse was a better team than Clemson?
- [26:38]
Paulie
Well, I don't know if they're. Well, let's just say this one through, let's just say 80. I don't know if they're a better team in terms of the individual players. I think Clemson is very talented as far as the kind of kids they have on that roster.
- [26:57]
Dan Patrick
Yeah, but that makes it even worse.
- [26:59]
Paulie
Exactly, exactly. That's my point. That's my point. I think right out of the gate you could see that Syracuse had a different mentality. And the dabo told us that when we talked to him, he said, really? This game's about a mentality. It's about how our guys, or are our guys going to go ahead and play up to their potential? Are they going to accept the challenge? Are they going to be sick and tired of being sick and tired of losing the two games that they lost to Tech and to lsu, which are basically, you know, like one possession type games where they could have won the game? And are they going to rise up? And early in the game you saw they weren't ready for it and Syracuse was like, guess what? We're pulling out all the stops. Fran Brown said. We're pulling out all the stops. We're putting the ball up in the air. We're going to put it up to our 6, 3, 64 wide receivers who we think has an advantage. We're going to have surprise onside kicks. We're going to run the football better than we've run it in the past two years. Right at the heart of your team where you supposedly had two or maybe three first rounders on your defensive line and we're going to smack them right in the mouth. And how are you going to respond? How are you going to respond? Clemson? And right out of the gate I was sitting there going, they're not. And how many people picked them on game day? How many people picked them, probably in our own crew to think this is a get right game for Clemson. They're going to blow Syracuse out. Syracuse struggled with UConn. Syracuse got beat up by Tennessee in week one. There's no way they can play with them. I'm telling you, as you know, you've covered sports for a long time. Football in particular is about an attitude and a mentality. And there's something Wrong with the attitude, the mindset and the mentality of the players at Clemson right now. For whatever reason, they are just not able to dial in and maintain consistent performance. And Fran Brown, you better give the guy some respect after the season he had last year coaching that team to 10 and 2. They give him the one of the hardest schedules in all of FBs this year and now he comes out and goes down to Death Valley and wins there like they won. That guy is for real, man. That they are for real. Syracuse is on the up and up.
- [29:07]
Dan Patrick
These things don't happen overnight. Mike Gundy didn't forget how to coach football at Oklahoma State. And Dabo didn't forget to how to coach at Clemson. But it doesn't feel like they are caught up with the times of college football. Saban talked about this. This drove him out of the game. You gotta be nil. You gotta be transfer portal friendly. And you know, these are, these are hall of Fame coaches that are getting embarrassed.
- [29:38]
Paulie
You know what? Look, I love Nick to death, okay? Obviously the guy taught me basically everything I know about football, him and Bill. I don't necessarily agree that you have to be like gung ho, like 100% into the nil transfer portal arena in order to compete. Look, obviously when you look at a team like Florida State that revamps their offensive line, revamps both coordinators, and all of a sudden they go from a. What were they, 2 and 12 last year? I mean, I saw that, I saw the beginning of that slide last year when we did their game against Boston College to now this year being the seventh, eighth rigged team in the country we're going to see on Friday. And they did it in large part by getting a new quarterback, getting new offensive coordinator, whole new offensive line, a bunch of guys coming on the defensive side and all of a sudden it turns Devil's got good players. You know, they got Will help out of the transfer portal from Purdue, who's their best defensive player this year but Peter Woods, TJ Parker, these guys, Sammy Brown, Wade Wood as Brian Wesco, these dudes are all four and five star kids. They're all four and five star guys who are good players. There's something though that doesn't connect, that doesn't. That they're not able to get across to these guys as far as playing consistently for 60 minutes. And from week to week, there's just something weird. Look, Bill, Bill just revamped his entire roster. Belichick down in North Carolina, right, They're all in the transfer portal. Dion's all in the transfer portal out in Colorado. It's not working for them. It's not all of a sudden putting them at the top of the heap. I think what they're, what people are saying, though, is maybe Dabo could be a little bit more selective and a little bit more of a participant in terms of finding maybe a couple more pieces that could help get him back into the national title contention picture. And I don't disagree with that.
- [31:28]
Dan Patrick
Okay.
- [31:29]
Paulie
But I don't think that all of a sudden he is doing something that everyone needs to, like, hammer him for him and say, well, you know what, he's just lost it because he doesn't want to play in the transfer portal. Nick also has been the, been the person who has said this. If you, you can go in the transfer portal and you can go gung ho and you can throw a bunch of money at these guys if you want, but if you pick the wrong guys, as he says, you're shit out of luck. And then, then what? Then what are you going to do? So I think there's a fine line, man. There's a fine line.
- [32:01]
Dan Patrick
Are there any great teams in college football?
- [32:08]
Paulie
I don't know if there's great there. Look, I think right now, I think Miami has the potential to be a great team, I think, but Georgia is going to be there in the end. We'll see what Ohio State looks like when it's all said and done. I think there, there's, you know, we'll see what Penn State, we're going to find out about them this week. Against Oregon. I don't know if there's great teams. I don't know if there's one team that's just separating themselves from everyone else. But I think we have some very, very quality teams right now that's going, that is going to make the CFP very, very interesting and very, very hotly contested, which I think is just great for college football. You see it with the ratings so far this year, it's, it's as good a season as I can remember recently.
- [32:57]
Dan Patrick
Louis Riddick of the Mothership, he's got the Jets Dolphins next Monday night. He'll have Virginia, Florida State coming up on Friday night. Let me turn our attention to the NFL. The Jackson Dart. Do you play him? The easy man? They looked uninspired against the Chiefs and I'm just not sure when is a good time to bring in a rookie quarterback.
- [33:23]
Paulie
Now, now it's, it's, it's. Look, I, I, I respect Russ, I really do. I respect his entire career, his process, how he's conducted himself, all that. I think obviously we have to kind of look in, you know, with proper context, the performance that he had a week ago against Dallas. We saw what Dallas is defensively. We saw it yesterday. They're going to struggle. They'll be the worst defense in the league this year. We also saw what Russ looks like against the championship caliber defense, which is what Kansas City has, and we saw how he looked in crunch time. He's like, I couldn't understand some of the decision making. He was that, that, that you saw on display from him late in that football game. Throwing the football out of the back of the. It's like, russ, what are you doing? Like, you're not even giving your guys a chance. What are you like, Come on. I don't, I don't believe in the whole. You ruined quarterbacks by playing them too early in particular. Well, let me put it this way. It's a case by case state. We saw it last year with Drake May. A lot of people thought you would ruin Drake May in his rookie season if you played him too early. He inspired the football team. Okay. You thought, you know, maybe in Washington, Jaden Daniels, can he handle being the starting quarterback from week one? Yeah, he handled it just fine. He took him all the way to the NFC title game. I think Jackson played a lot of football at Ole Miss. He was very well schooled at an SEC school. He infuses that football team with, with really, with confidence. You can see they're starting to lose. Malik Neighbors. From a mental standpoint, he looks so, he looks so distraught again last night. It's like, look, you got to be careful. You got to be careful. You got to kind of like safeguard the rest of the football team, you know, as far as keeping these guys engaged. And I think Jackson could do that for the rest of this team. He could give them some hope. He can give the fan base some hope. Although they're not the ones playing the games. Long story short, put him in there now.
- [35:11]
Dan Patrick
But do you put him, put him in there now. Put him in there for a home game against the Chargers or a road game against the Saints.
- [35:19]
Paulie
I think I had mentioned, like back in the preseason that that game against the Saints on the road would probably be a good time to put him in there because he's on the road against maybe a quote, unquote inferior opponent than what the Chargers look like right now. So maybe that is the time. I don't know. I, I, I, I would just do it Much sooner rather than later. I wouldn't be opposed to doing it this coming week. Obviously, you would like for it to be a setup to where you. He could come out of the gates really humming and on fire and feeling confident and not having the weight of the home crowd on his, on his shoulders. But I don't think Jackson really cares. I think the guy's played enough football at a high enough level when you're talking about college to where he doesn't really care about that. And honestly, this offense, the kind of things that they do with this offense when he's in there, the way they run, the hurry up, the way in which they spread it out and kind of have him do a lot of the things he did at Ole Miss. Look, I think that's going to work regardless of whether you're in New Orleans or you're at home against a tough opponent like the Chargers. Just put him in there. This team needs. They need an infusion of energy because right now, I mean, they just look like dead man walking again. And how many years has that been the case? At the beginning of the season with the Giants, consecutively. Now, this is the same old story.
- [36:28]
Dan Patrick
I mentioned this to start the show. Sometimes you have a win that feels like it's one and a half wins or you have a loss, that's one and a half losses, like the Rams, that feels like that's one and a half losses, that you're blowing them out, you're on the road, and then you lose in dramatic fashion.
- [36:47]
Paulie
Yeah, this is where coaching and leadership comes into play. Because you're right, this can have. This can have like a lingering hangover type of effect. Right. Where you're like, still sitting there a week later going, damn, how did we lose that? What were we up 26 to 7 at halftime? I mean, we're absolutely rolling and all of a sudden AJ Brown takes the game over. We have two block field goals, one return for a touchdown. We lose the game on that. Yeah, you have to, like, quickly try and find a way to turn the page. That's on. That's going to be on Sean. That's going to be on Matthew Stafford. That's going to be on Jared Verse. That's going to be on the dudes to say, hey, look, we got to flush this thing, as painful as it is, because we know we're a good football team. We had this team down. I mean, we were absolutely stomping their back out and we let them back in it. So leadership, that's where it comes into play.
- [37:36]
Dan Patrick
I'm not sure I have a strong opinion on the Bears or Cowboys when I'm watching that game and it's over. Like, I don't know how good the Bears are and I don't know how good the Cowboys are.
- [37:49]
Paulie
Yeah.
- [37:49]
Dan Patrick
Do you have an assessment of these? Do you know who these teams are going to be this year?
- [37:54]
Paulie
I think when it comes to the Cowboys, I think they are exactly who they look like, which is a team that will be able to put up some points when Dak is on. And if the offensive line stays healthy, they should be able to run it adequate, adequately. But defensively they are just not a very stout, tough, physical, grinding, gritty defense that can stop the run. And they give up way too many explosives in the past game. And I just don't see that changing. You can't really change that kind of thing midstream from a talent infusion standpoint because where are you going to get the players?
- [38:34]
Dan Patrick
Well, they paid those defensive backs too, you're right.
- [38:38]
Paulie
But you know what? Trayvon doesn't look the same, does he? It doesn't look like he has the same wheels. Their safeties in their corners don't communicate very well together. You saw it a week ago against the Giants. The number of coverage busts, you know, where people are not playing in unison. They don't rush the passer with consistency. Kenny Clark wasn't going to all of a sudden make them a top five Run stuffing defense. What did the Bear, what did the Bears do? They ran the ball like 11 or 12 straight times on him on like this grueling like nine minute drive. I mean, that's the kind of stuff that should never happen at the NFL level. You can do that in college. You shouldn't do that in the NFL level to anybody. People are just. People are really challenging Dallas's manhood from a physicality standpoint and they have no answers for it. And I think that's going to be the case with Chicago. Chicago's trending the right way. Ben Johnson will get that place going and get. And he will get Caleb going and he will even out his performances. And we know Dennis Allen is a very good defensive coordinator. He's always been a good defensive coordinator. If I'm putting on, if I'm betting on anybody of those two teams, I'm for sure putting my money on Chicago. There's no question about that.
- [39:42]
Dan Patrick
If the Cowboys offered you the GM job, would you pass on it?
- [39:45]
Paulie
I think anybody would, simply because it's balanced, right. It's Dallas, but I mean, obviously it would, you know, you would, you would hope that it would come with some stipulations. But I think at the same time you also know that it will never be just your job. But Dallas was like my squad as a kid. I love the Dallas Cow. I love Tony Dorsett more than life. So of course I would be interested in it. But that'll never happen. So I don't even really think about it. It'll never happen for anyone.
- [40:16]
Dan Patrick
You all in on the Chargers?
- [40:18]
Paulie
Absolutely. I think Jim Harbaugh has such a unique connection with today's players and with that quarterback and with Justin in particular. I think the leadership structure on that football team in the locker room between Justin, Joe Walt, Keenan Allen on the offensive side, Khalil, although he's hurt right now, but he'll be fine. Day on Henley, Derwin James on the defensive side. This team is, they believe now, they believe that they're a well rounded enough football team to deal with anybody in the afc. And I think you're going to see that. And for them to come out three straight division games like that and win them all, they are just, they are right now infused with so much confidence and so much like just willingness to kind of put in the work and do whatever Jim asked them to do, that's a very powerful combination. They're going to be tough to deal with.

I've been a Danette for many years. As a matter of fact, it's one of the longest relationships I've ever had in my life. Longer than actually my wife. And one of the things I've learned in that time is that most athletes elevate performance through better nutrition. And here's the thing, your pets aren't much different. Your pets need quality protein to build lean muscle, balanced nutrition to maintain energy and proper hydration to support recovery and thrive regardless of their preferred form of exercise. That's why gold medalists like Simone Biles and Caleb Dressel, they trust Nulo for their own pets. And they understand that champion performance starts with what goes into their body. Nulo is loaded with premium protein that builds and maintains muscle. Their low carb formula prevents those midday crashes. So your pet stays in the game all day. And their mix and match options help you customize nutrition for your pet's specific needs, like a pro athlete's meal plan. The bottom line is champions don't leave performance to chance. And neither should you. My dogs, I have got three of them and they absolutely love Nulo. You should visit nulo.com that's n u l o.com to fuel. Incredible.

I said it. I said to myself. I said, I don't want. I know. Fingernails look like freaking Joe Montana. Danny. 298 yards, four freaking touchdowns. This defense sucks. We know that. Heber flu sucks. Defense sucks. Secondary is awful. No pass rush. But Dak and then put up 14 points against the team that gave up a 50 burger to Jared Goff and the Lions. The problems are everywhere except in the kicking position. Shot in the highway, doesn't know what he's doing. Jerry's convalescent. Steven's got a silver spoon so far down his throat he can't see straight. Jordan Lewis going. Steph on Gilmore going. Danny, I skipped soccer games, right? I got kids to play soccer. I skipped those games for the Cowboys. Well, my eldest is now old enough to understand football. And she says, daddy, why do you watch the Cowboys suck when you can come watch me win? So now I'm going to be watching soccer all freaking weekend. Danny.

Second time, long time, still six foot. Now I'm a slim 195. I have two best of the weekends. My best, watching my three Philadelphia Eagles win in dramatic fashion. My other best of the weekend is watching those Dallas Cowboys fall apart in Chicago. And a quick stat of the day. Jordan Davis reached a top speed of 18.59 mph on the return, the fastest speed by a player over 330 pounds since 2017.
- [51:35]
Dan Patrick
Stat of the day. Stat of the day. Stat of the day. Stat of the day. Here comes that. What stat of the day? To be fair to the stat, I don't know how many guys over 330 pounds get the opportunity to run the ball back for a touchdown. Al in Atlanta. Hi, Al.

I had a best, but to mention it in the same breath with my worst, it's just, it's insulting to the best. So I won't even say it. So Saturday I was taken to an all day meditation retreat that I left rejuvenated, optimistic and excited for my football weekend. I had the line I on dvr. I wasn't going to let anything spoil it. I was going to go home and watch it. And the only thing worse than having to watch that game live is having to watch that game on tape delay. I felt like every time I was fast forwarding to a commercial, I was just asking myself why. But at least I have the Falcons on Sunday. And look, going against the Panthers. Yes, this is a getaway game. We need and then the game starts. Our offense can't move through the red zone. Our defense can't stop the Panthers. The Carolina panthers look like the 90s 49ers compared to our defense. Our kicker can't hit a freaking field goal. I, I, I, I can't take it anymore. This is why I didn't give him my heart last week after a win. And, and I just cannot take this anymore. But I can't break up with them. So I guess I just got a cheat on them behind my back with the Chiefs. Thank God they finally want to get all right.

Best of the Weekend Dan Best the endings of both the Rams Eagles and the Bucs jets games were epic. I was in a bar here in San Francisco and seeing all the Rams fans crying and then simultaneously watching the jets fans prematurely celebrating while Baker Mayfield was licking his chops in those Creamsicle unis on the sidelines was so fun and worse for the weekend. Dan, please tell me you saw Nate Burleson on the CBS pre game. Dan I mean I almost fell out of my chair when I saw him.
