[Josh Allen]

The NFC and AFC Championship games will be played this weekend. I'll obviously get into it in a little while, but first I want to show y'all something we found on the Buffalo Bills social media handle. Good Lord. Check this out.

[Daniel Jeremiah]

It's gonna be 22 degrees in Buffalo. Do people live here by choice?

[Josh Allen]

Yes. Don't be rude to people in Buffalo.

[Daniel Jeremiah]

Four degrees on Tuesday. Four. What are you doing? Four degrees.

[Josh Allen]

What that got to do with Sunday's football game? Josh McDonald. McDonald, we not finished yet.

[Daniel Jeremiah]

What are you doing for degrees?

[Unknown Speaker 1]

They're a city of losers. They've won nothing.

[Josh Allen]

Now it's a city of winners. Winners, winners.

[Greg Rosenthal]

People in this town are winners.

[Josh Allen]

What that got to do with Sunday's football game?

[Daniel Jeremiah]

Josh, this is Buffalo. This is what they have to deal with. After the L.

[Josh Allen]

Obviously, y'all know why I'm here. Because he's here. My nephew Josh is in the house. I mean, I see you bopping to the beat and all of that stuff, but I gotta admit, Josh, they got you. You said they don't take the L and all of that stuff and they won the game. So they decide to troll my little nephew. How you feeling, bro?

[Daniel Jeremiah]

So they got me. Well, you ain't have nothing to do with that.

[Josh Allen]

No, no, no. I mean, I don't.

[Daniel Jeremiah]

It's your fault.

[Josh Allen]

How is it mine?

[Daniel Jeremiah]

They used your ball as a drop in the song. If you don't yell at me, they don't even have that.

[Josh Allen]

Yeah, but you were the ones that picked again. You were the one that picked against them and you chastised. I have no recollection of that. The point that I'm trying to make to you is that whether I picked them or not is irrelevant. The point is you attacked the city of Buffalo. You talked about who lives there, why live there. You said, what's there to do in 4 degree weather? You went beyond the game and started chastising them about their city, their town, you know, their extracurricular activities. You just threw the city of Buffalo under the bus. How does it feel to have them troll you and show you how wrong you were?

[Daniel Jeremiah]

Well, I learned from the best. Don't you say you like being in Miami? You would cheer for the Heat to go to the finals over the Knicks, depending on the weather.

[Josh Allen]

That's true. And your point would be valid if they weren't playing Kansas City and they weren't playing Baltimore before that. But because it was Baltimore and Kansas City, that argument goes right out the window. It makes no sense.

[Daniel Jeremiah]

See, my pick wasn't about the weather though. My pick was about Lamar Jackson. I kind of want him to finish a great season like anybody else. He's doing stuff to further his legacy and then you lose in a game because somebody can't catch a pass. So once again, it's somebody else fault. He has to take all of this heat from y'all and I just feel him like I feel him.

[Josh Allen]

Yeah, but before the game, you didn't bring up all of that. You. You brought up the weather. You brought up the town. You went. Actually, the game was on Sunday, but you sat that like a wannabe meteorologist and gave the weather report for Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday. And oh, by the way, Sunday's game is at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City. They won't even be in Buffalo. So there was no reason for you to chastise the city the way that you did, but you did it anyway.

[Daniel Jeremiah]

All I want to do is make sure Pat Mahomes, you gotta finish the job. Lamar Jackson ain't do it. We after this goat thing. That's it. Now, Josh Allen, I'm all about being a better Josh. So I really can't have him win a whole super bowl and then compete.

[Josh Allen]

I lost. I lost. I'm sorry. I apologize. I got distracted. Did you say you all about being the better Josh? What would make you think you a better Josh than him right now? He's an all world quarterback, a perennial all pro, a candidate for league MVP honors in three of the last five years. The brother's a stud. He was always the better.

[Daniel Jeremiah]

Josh, you are at the top of this whole media thing, right? Didn't I tell you what Jayden Daniels was gonna do? And what did you say? And what did Shannon say? And what did Ryan Clark say? Y'all make all these millions until it's we rich, but technically, y'all make all these millions. Why am I making the executive decisions and telling the fans what's gonna happen and being right? I was three for four.

[Josh Allen]

You were three for four?

[Daniel Jeremiah]

Yeah, I was three for four.

[Josh Allen]

How were you three for four? How were you three for four? I don't recall you picking the Eagles. I don't recall you.

[Daniel Jeremiah]

I did pick the Eagles.

[Josh Allen]

You picked the six. Didn't you pick C.J. stroud? Did you pick C.J. strouD?

[Daniel Jeremiah]

C.J. who?

[Josh Allen]

C.J. strouD, damn it. For the Houston, Texas. You didn't pick him.

[Daniel Jeremiah]

He didn't even play last week.

[Josh Allen]

Excuse me. Yes, he did.

[Daniel Jeremiah]

Who they played?

[Josh Allen]

The Kansas City Chiefs. Oh, my Lord.

[Daniel Jeremiah]

I did not pick C.J. stroud, though. I didn't pick C.J. stroud.

[Josh Allen]

I told you, Pat.

[Daniel Jeremiah]

Don't lose early. Didn't I say that?

[Josh Allen]

Yeah, you did. You did. You did. You did.

[Daniel Jeremiah]

You had three for four.

[Josh Allen]

You had three for four.

[Daniel Jeremiah]

And everybody else is two for four. Cause nobody.

[Josh Allen]

Everybody tells two, four.

[Daniel Jeremiah]

Pay me, please. Pay you what?

[Josh Allen]

Cause you guessed right for one weekend, so you guessed right for one week.

[Daniel Jeremiah]

When we signed our contract. My portion should be a little bit more than what we had agreed to before.

[Josh Allen]

You think you're entitled to my money?

[Daniel Jeremiah]

Our.

[Josh Allen]

When you gonna work for it?

[Daniel Jeremiah]

I did already.

[Josh Allen]

Cause you gave a prediction.

[Daniel Jeremiah]

So it wasn't three for four. Cause of me.

[Josh Allen]

No, the show wasn't three for four. You were. We giving it to you. We giving it to you. And then the second we put you up there, you supposed to be Mr. Meteorologist. You got everything wrong.

[Daniel Jeremiah]

You know why? Because I didn't get it wrong. Cause it is four degrees in Buffalo, it is cold, and people don't like living there. They said that in the comments.

[Josh Allen]

But you know what? If they don't have anywhere to go, that means, you know, the lady's home with her husband or her boyfriend and stuff like that. Cause there ain't much places. There ain't too many places to go, right? So you're there, and you can enjoy each other's other's company. How about that plus?

[Daniel Jeremiah]

Nah, it was the plus. That's why I was telling you that I would Run out of the stuff that, you know, we be getting from Camron in New York.

[Josh Allen]

Why are you wearing the Kansas City stuff right now? You're no Kansas City Chiefs fan.

[Daniel Jeremiah]

I am. I will be. Sunday.

[Josh Allen]

Oh, just for Sunday. Where you get the jacket from?

[Daniel Jeremiah]

New York? Because New York is one of those places you can get any team you can't go to.

[Josh Allen]

Hold it. You went and bought that?

[Daniel Jeremiah]

Yeah, we rich. You know what? I.

[Josh Allen]

You went. You. You. You went and bought that. You went and spent my money and.

[Daniel Jeremiah]

Bought that for your show. Yeah, my name ain't on. And that's another thing, too. I was when. Where's my. Where's my graphic? I'm up here.

[Josh Allen]

What would you want on the graphic saying, like, do you even know what you would want?

[Daniel Jeremiah]

Minus the Steven and put J O S H o.

[Josh Allen]

You could put you. Josh. You could put the Josh Smith Show. Everybody would think about the Atlanta Hawks. That's what they would think about Josh Smith, former NBA player. That's what they would think about before they thought about you.

[Daniel Jeremiah]

And when they think about Steve Smith, they would think about the other Atlanta Hawk guy, too.

[Josh Allen]

No, because he spelled it S T E V E, not pH. I did that on purpose.

[Daniel Jeremiah]

Well, see that?

[Josh Allen]

That's called shutting your nephew up.
