Wow. We're at awards. Wow. There it is. Motor Trend is Ram 1500 Truck of the Year for 2025. Congrats to them. Ram Trucks also back on the track, returning in the NASCAR Craftman Truck series for the 2026 season. Obviously, we talk about all the time now. I don't want to talk about racing too much because the boys might take it in a different way because they watch Brad Pitt race this weekend and all of a sudden we might have some new G1 fans around the Thunderdome, which I certainly did not expect. But let's get to the top five headlines of Week 15 of the NFL season. Listen, we're in prime football season. We're in meaningful football season. We're in the time of year where football teams are playing their absolute best. So your team's going to lose a game, potentially your team. It's not over until it's over. If you're still in it, it's okay if you lose. So if you're the Patriots and you lose to the Buffalo Bills after having a 21 point lead, it's okay. That's going to happen. A lot of good football teams, what you can have happen is you can't be deemed from the playoffs and gone. Listen, new teams have been added to the playoffs gone list now, obviously, Jets, Browns, Titans, Raiders, Commanders, Giants, Falcons, Saints and Cardinals have already said, what are we playing for? Absolutely not the future. Add in the Bengals and I'll tell you what, with this Bengals team, oh, man, they get their ass beat by the Baltimore Ravens still lurking in the afc. The Baltimore Ravens. But from what Joe Burrow said last week, where Joe Burrow was saying, like, what's the purpose of doing this? Period? This kind of sucks, man. Not fun. Not having any fun. This kind of stink. I don't know, am I a football player anymore? Then you think to yourself, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Joe, Joe, Joe, Joe, Joe, Joe, Joe, Joe. We need you to be enjoying this. We need you to be loving this. Also, you're the quarterback of an NFL franchise, Cincinnati Bengals, who have bet good on you. Can't have you wondering in the middle of the season whether or not this is what you're supposed to be doing. Then he had the opportunity to get on the field in AFC north battle against Baltimore Ravens, another team that's kind of been in a year, and make up for it, maybe start having some fun. Nah. Yeah, he stunk.

Zero fun.

They stunk. They get absolutely obliterated by the Baltimore Ravens. Kyle Van Noy makes a heady decision. Get the ball out of his old ass hands and they take a pitch six all the way back. But the Ravens absolutely thump the Bengals. And going into the game, we wondered if Joe Burrow likes football. Now, we know there's no way he can enjoy anything about this. So D. But my question for you about this Bengals team is like, hey, whenever you sign Ja' Marr Chase and T. Higgins to number one wide receiver contracts and you pay Joe Burrow and it doesn't seem as if you're investing in the defense at all. And your offensive line moves have never really worked. Will you ever win with this particular recipe? Everybody that knew ball going in the season said, probably not like in history, this is not a way to win. But if you don't win, life is not fun. Is Joey B at the situation now where because they suck and because there's no super bowl dreams and aspirations, he's not enjoying what he's doing? Or do you think maybe Joe Burrow is a human and there's some stuff going on in his life plus the fact that they're ass that maybe it's combining right now for not a great time of his life? And we shouldn't worry about what the future holds for Joe Burrow. This is just a chapter or an era that will move on.
