Joakim Noah, NFL Week 2 Picks And Preview, Eagles Run It Down Vikings Throat + Fyre Fest Of The Year

Hey, Pardon My Take listeners, you can find every episode on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or YouTube. Prime. members can listen ad-free on Amazon Music on today's Pardon My Take. We have our good friend Joakim Noah back in studio, great interview with him in person.

Okay, all right.

It's official, it's official, they are not winning.

I can't believe we got an early drop.

Nowhere close, they're 0-2, and I actually thought, Kirk Cousins played okay tonight.

When he had time to pass, when he didn't have time, he stunk. But when he had time, I think all four of his touchdown passes were from a relatively clean pocket.

Yeah, he was on his third left tackle, no center.

So the Eagles had 259 yards rushing. They doubled up time of possession. It was 40 minutes to 20 minutes. It was an ass-kicking. They could not stop anything.

259 yards is insane.

And the Eagles have a running back.

And it was 5.

Do you think that the Eagles chose to start Gainwell? Because his name's Gainwell? And that's an awesome name for running back? That's a great name. Forgetting that the guy they had behind him was named Swift, which is also a very good name for running back. The Eagles have the two best running back names at the running back.

And Boston Scott's a great name, too.

It is, yeah.

Yeah, they have great names, Rashad Petty's a great name.

They do, they've got all the names.

They have all the names, but yeah, this was, listen, people know our piece with Kirk Cousins. This was not on him. He had very little time and he did everything he could to keep the Vikings in this game.

Threw it to Justin Jefferson a lot.

Yeah, Justin Jefferson is incredible. You want to do the insult stat.

I don't want to do the insult stat.

Do you want me to? Yeah, because people want to hear it.

All right, so Justin Jefferson. Fun stat about Justin Jefferson. He now has more receiving yards than any Bears wide receiver ever, and but the Bears haven't been playing football that recently, right? They're, they're an expansion team.

Well, they haven't been doing the forward pass since, like like Jay Cutler.

Okay, so it's been what, like, over a hundred years of bears football.

Yeah, so it's. It was, uh, it's an insult stat. it hurts, but it also, like every bears stat, when you do, wide receivers or quarterbacks will always hurt. It. Then did have us go down to Johnny Knox, Uh, rabbit Hole, which was nice.

Johnny Knox from From.

The U.

From J.M.U. I think Vanderbilt.

I think it's.

I think maybe I'm making that up.

It might you might be thinking of Earl Bennett and, uh, Jay Cutler.

That's embarrassing if I do a from and it's not right.

I I think you might be right, though, I think you might be right.

Okay.

You were thinking of Earl Bennett and Jay Cutler?

Yeah, to be fair, I was.

Yeah, you were thinking of of that.

I will, I'm swearing off froms for the next three weeks.

Cause I was like, Wait, do I know this? I was like, Wait, I don't know this.

It sounded like it was a I don't know a question where you knew he could have gotten into Vanderbilt.

It was, I know exactly where your brain was. Jay Cutler, Earl Bennett. But yeah, the Justin Jefferson is out of this world. Good. Like some of the catches he was making, the like the run after the catches he was making, he is so fucking good.

I thought what we saw tonight, Big Cat, was perhaps the emergence of two diva wide receivers.

Yeah.

Maybe Jefferson, maybe Brown, A.J. Brown, I would say, but he's, but it's. It seems like maybe A.J. Brown's diva-ness is coming out because he realizes he's not, he's not him on the Eagles.

Devontae Smith is.

Devontae Smith despite the fact that he's got skinny legs.

Also, great moment while we're watching the game. I think you mentioned you're like, Did you see A.J. Brown going up to Jalen Hurts? Diva Watch? And Max goes, Yeah, but then Jalen Hurts threw him the ball four times straight.

So you placated him?

Yeah, it's like, that's exactly what a diva is.

Which you force the ball to him. And to be fair, we want diva wide receivers. Yeah, we miss diva wide receivers.

No, you need, it's good.

Yeah.

The Four of Browns is phenomenal.

And also Justin Jefferson kind of has a case. He's the best receiver in the football right now. Yes, it would be nice if he won some games.

It would, it would suck to be that much better than everyone else and be like, Why are we owing two?

Yeah, and after the Kirk Cousins experience in Minnesota, who knows who he's going to get to play with next?

So I said again, Not Kirk's fault tonight, not his fault. We don't. We're not going to fall. People will think that we'll just be like, Oh, primetime, Kirk, not his fault.

No, this was not primetime Kirk the fumble.

He did have the fumble, the fumble was bad, but then he had no time. Like Kirk, we've said this many times with Kirk. When his offensive line sucks and he's on the road and the defensive line is down his throat, he looks like he's like five feet tall.

Yeah, so I actually pulled up a stat. This is a next gen stats, that's how deep we're getting into the technology here. Kirk Cousins threw four touchdown passes in rhythm, which is between two and a half and four seconds against the Eagles. Tied for the most such TDS in a game in the next gen stats era.

Yes, yes, I mean, yeah, he, he was not bad tonight.

And since, Oh, this is fun. Since 2016, he's thrown 114 touchdown passes in rhythm, 15 more than any other player. Kirk Cousins avid subscriber to the rhythm method.

Yes, yeah, he is all in on it.

He needs me. If he's got good protection, it would probably help out a little bit. Max, you are the star of the show today.

Yeah, so we haven't even gotten to that point, but we can do a preview. Yeah, so we people will have to trust us because we did tweet it out. Uh, Max. Later on in the show, we little peel behind the curtain how we do.

Yeah, that was cool, that was a cool moment and I saw it coming. I think, like, midway through the third quarter, I'm like, Ah, there's a path here that I could nail this prediction, exactly.

Score you like, whispered it. You were like yo. The 34 28 is alive right now.

Saw it coming. So what do you think the Eagles defense secondary got work to do?

Yeah, there's a lack of communication in the secondary right now.

There has been, it sounded like the hardest words play-by-play guy or the, uh, the color commentator.

There's a lack of communication.

They're not on the same page.

Uh, yeah, no, the past two weeks I, I was watching an X video this week, uh, from Baldy, and he was talking about how last week. There was just a bunch of blunders in this in the secondary and guys were just wide open for absolutely no reason. And again, it happened the exact same thing tonight. But the D line can help with a lot of those mistakes because every guy in that front seven is just so good.

As long as the turf is good.

As long as the turf is good.

Correct, I think you guys are down your top three corners now. Slay's healthy, Slay's healthy, Bradbury.

We had to score a Gomi injury.

Yeah, but you're down, you're down. Yeah, we had a name, a guy, an injury, Gomi, today.

I think it's one corner, one or maybe two safeties, one linebacker.

Max I have another question, play calling.

Uh, got better.

It started off poor, but then once we realized that we could run the ball every single time.

Yes, I'd agree with that.

You just, we just did the run, the ball play.

It felt like they were like trying to get Jalen Hurts some running plays, but it was they all felt like kind of half ass.

Yeah, but. But you figured it out? I mean, it's a new offensive coordinator.

Two and o is two and o.

Two and o is two and O, and you'll get better throughout the season. New coaches got to get get a feel for the guys, we'll be fine.

Yeah, Hank. Thoughts on the game.

Hawkinson, Hawkinson, he did it for you. Two touchdowns, seven receptions, great game.

Just great recap.

Max, you're out, uh? Two cornerbacks now and a starting safety.

Uh, yeah.

Or okay, yes.

Yeah, James Bradbury, Reed, Blankenship, and then you had another injury tonight.

Okay.

Two and o is two and o.

Two and O is two and o. But the good news is the front seven is good enough, like they're going to be able to get pressure on anybody.

Jalen I I Whenever Jalen Carter's on the field, which isn't every drive which makes me upset, I just watch. he's the only thing I watch.

So you actually are a little like, it's getting a little homoerotic, yeah.

No, it's great, I showed you that that one during the game, it was awesome.

Also, we should say, Max, Uh, for people who are listening right now and they're like, Hey, is this guy sick? For like the seventh straight week? He is? He's going to see a doctor, though.

Yeah, any Chicago doctors out there?

Please help Max.

Real doctors.

Real doctors.

Or a vet? We could send you to a vet.

I feel I feel like I feel like I'm your parent, because I've been telling you to go to the doctor for the last two weeks.

Yeah, no, it's not that bad. I've had a cough for six weeks now and it just doesn't go away.

And he keeps saying long Covid and he already took antibiotics and that did nothing.

Yeah, so I went to the doctor, I took steroids, and then I went back to the doctor and then they gave me antibiotics and it helped. My throat is fine, I just still have this cough.

Yeah.

I feel like I'm talking to a doctor right now.

No, there'll be a doctor that will hit us up.

It's like, you're treating us like a like a therapist, like I've talked about my feelings, I feel sick.

How many drinks a week do you have?

Subjective.

It's all right, everyone lies to their doctor, the one person in the world you shouldn't lie to. Really the dumbest brain thing that men do. We're like, Hey, this guy's here to help you.

The doctors know that, though.

They know they don't multiply your drinks by five. But it's just such a funny concept where it's like, Yeah, I'm going to lie to my doctor, yeah, the one guy that you don't want to lie to.

Have you ever been to a doctor where they don't put you on the scale, but they ask you what your weight is? Yeah, never give them the right way.

No.

Six, three to 15.

You're like, What's bothering you? Nothing? I feel great, like, you know, this is the one time you should actually bitch, all right?

No, there's no chance. Although I, I, I've got a future on the Vikings at 4,000 or plus 4,000..

Okay.

Uh, that's dead. Yeah, I might as well just late that on fire.

They're not there, they've got too many defense.

The defense stinks.

Yeah, and their offense, I mean, Justin Jefferson, just, he's so good.

I thought their defense couldn't be any worse than last year. It might be well, granted they did play the Eagles tonight. That might mean that the Patriots are really good, hank.

It's just really tough when you get undressed in that manner. In a in a pro football game where it's like, we're going to do this one thing and there's nothing you can do to stop.

Absolutely nothing that I do love the cheap play, it might be cheating, but I love it.

No, it's great.

Best playing sports.

Jerry Joe I can't believe Jerry Jones didn't ban that this off season. I thought for sure he would. He really wanted to put a pin in that. He'll do it next off season, or AI, Jerry Jones will do it.

Yes, yes, um, okay, let's kick it to ourselves weekend preview.

We got some root beer last week and it was elite.

Elite Week two boys, I almost said, week three, week two, because week three, college football, week two, we're ready to find some things out. Uh, just a general week two note. I wanted to throw out there it. Teams that lost by double digits are 39, 22 and one in week two.

Yeah, this is the classic. Don't overreact, but we're going to overreact.

So that's. The Panthers, the Bengals, the Steelers, the Seahawks, the Bears and the Giants are all teams that fall under that category, where they lost badly. And now you got to say to yourself, huh, who do I like this week? Is that real?

Yeah, I made a little note today, and it was before, I hadn't heard about that stat in particular, but it's the same mindset. If a team gets their ass kicked, if they were a favorite, that gets their ass kicked in week one and then their underdogs in week two. That's going to be a system play for me, this.

Year, Yeah, I like it, so, uh, we're going to do it how we did it last week.

I don't give a fuck, yeah.

This, this seems like I don't need to hear the bears.

I was looking through this late and it's like, if we weren't Bears and Commanders fans, those are probably the games that aren't going to be on TV this weekend.

Yeah, probably. Broncos Commanders, Tampa Bay, Broncos Commanders is late slate. So we'll have enough TVs. It would have, it would have been on the cut line, Bears would have been on the cut line. I think officially, because there is a couple not great games, but Jags Chiefs will be center TV sound.

He had a long rest before the Lions game, though.

Yeah, yeah, he did. He had a very long rest. But Andy reed off of a buy mini buy, uh, cause they played on Thursday. Uh, last 20 years, on eight or more days. He's 45, 35 and one against the spread, and 56 and 25 straight up, yeah.

Pretty good, and he's getting Chris Jones back, which is probably the biggest thing considering that. I think. The Jaguars have two offensive linemen that are down, one of them being Brandon Scherf, who's one of two, uh, all pro players from the Washington franchise in the last, like, 40 years.

Cam Robinson suspended for four games.

Cam Robinson out, Uh, Chris Jones, who won the contract negotiation, cause I would say, not Chris Jones, uh he. Basically. They said, Okay, we'll take you back and we'll give you some, maybe a potential more money in incentives.

If you have like 15 sacks this year, they also, uh. I saw someone posted on Twitter that someone on Chief's Reddit did a deep dive into Chris Jones's agents, and basically, they don't have any players except Chris Jones.

So they get all their time.

So they were like, trying really hard to get Chris Jones more money. But yeah, I'd say Chris Jones probably didn't win that. But I'm happy he's back, he's fun to watch, play football. Is Kelsey playing?

I don't know, because it seemed like he was going to try to play last week. So you would assume if he tried to play last week and it was coming down to the wire that he would play this week.

Last week felt like a don't hold me back, bro, it was like it was put out the report.

I fought to try to play like a lot of, uh, a lot of emotion going into week one. Yeah, there was a report that own Bruce that that Taylor Swift is trying to tank the chief season to make her Eagles win. That came courtesy tick-tock some lady on TikTok.

Also, Mahomes is an underdog or favorite of three or less 1966 and one. So I think it's three and a half now, so I guess that's outside of that. But, uh, I. So I think that the Chiefs will have a very good game, I think they'll win this game.

Miles Jack wasn't down, yeah.

People forget Jack out of the league.

The Jaguars should have won that game, the Jaguars should have been in the Superbowl. Blake Bortles should have been in the Superbowl against Nick Foles and tell me that Blake Bortles doesn't win that. Can you imagine? Can you imagine if Jaguar if Jacksonville had a Superbowl parade and Blake Bortles was up front? Like driving a Silverado, just like cranking tunes and just chugging bush lights.

That was the insult graphic that went around. Remember it? It was, uh, it was Bortles, Foles, Kirk Cousins, Tom Brady or Case Keenum, right? Thank you.

Yeah.

Out of these four quarterbacks.

I mean, fucking Bortles, man, that he should have been Superbowl MVP. So in this game, if the Jaguars beat the Chiefs in a shootout, the Superbowl champs, will there be somebody that says? A major passing of the torch moment? Oh, for sure. From the homes to Trevor Lawrence, for sure.

Yeah, I, uh, yeah, this game makes me nervous, uh, cause I probably will most likely bet the chiefs and I. I am a little nervous about the fact that the jags like this is. This will be kind of everything, and then it will be fade hard.

Yeah, so the good news if you're a Jaguars fan, or I guess if you're a Chiefs fan, great news going into this week is that cadareous Tony can't possibly play worse, right? Oh yeah, no, he can't.

They would have won the game without him on the field. Yeah, so I think, yeah, he could play worse, why not?

You think so?

I think he's the only guy up for the challenge.

He is, if anyone can do it, it's Tony.

I believe in him. Yes, yes, um, okay, so I'm excited for this game.

So real quick before Jake does his nerd nugget. Um, something to keep your eye on, which is an overall trend this year. It's from last year, it looks like it's carrying over, uh. Last year. There were 3,416 attempts of at least 15 yards downfield, right?

That might also the the Bears definitely skew those numbers.

Well, the bears also patty checkdowns. Well, he's becoming a running back now. Yeah, we'll see if Patrick Mahomes can learn to pass the ball, like pocket thrower Trevor Lawrence.

Yes, uh, I am worried about the Jags offensive line, though. uh, I think it's going to be Chris Jones. He's got something to prove, he's got incentives to make.

And he's, yeah, he's got incentives.

He has to make these incentives to get his money.

And he's off a mega buy.

Yeah, huge, huge buy. Uh, all right, next up another TV game.

Nerd Nugget.

Yeah, nerd nugget, sorry.

Uh. Jaguars head coach Doug Peterson returns to face Kansas City, where he served as Chiefs OC from 2013 to 15.

Did you have a Doug Peterson nerd nugget last week? Is it just Doug Peterson's been on a lot of teams? Should we just make that? The nerd nugget for the Jaguars was that not? Am I confusing? I'm not saying it was, I think it was Doug Peterson.

Jaguars Colts was the Colts, uh, New Week one quarterback?

Oh, okay, all right.

Well, with Doug Peters, it's like you've got the best former Philadelphia Eagles coach in the NFL and also Andy Reed playing. Where do you? where do you? How do you rank those Max as a Philly guy?

It's gotta be dougie p.

Dougie, P. Andy, R.

What and what's that? Look? Yeah, it's gotta be Dougie P dude.

It's Andy was there for so long, forever.

So much, all those NFC Championship losses that you have.

Philly, Philly.

All right, Nick Sirianni, or Dougie P, Dougie p.

Okay.

Sirianni lost the Superbowl, too.

Yeah, they all tank, got you good on that one, damn.

You're not remembering all those NFC Championship game losses, hank?

Hank, I'm proud of you. That was fucking, I mean, yeah, you bad. No, it's, it's, it's, it's. Dougie P.

But Andy Reed had had the Eagles in contention every single year.

But did they win anything? This is an insane question.

I know it's Dougie P.

I mean, he's got a fistful of rings from the years that he had them in contention.

That's Nick Falls easy, I don't know why.

What's the ring? It's the exact same question.

It's the exact same question.

I Okay, that's fair, that's, that's fair.

He's got you twice now.

I think I just like Andy Reed as a guy more than I like Donovan as a guy.

Andy Reed's more of like a philly guy.

What's the difference between the two Max?

Make that was kind of a jerk.

They're both kind of chunky.

No, I mean, one guy, big cat.

One guy is the kind of guy that you'd want to date your daughter, you know, the other guy. He comes home and you're like, Hey, what's going on here?

Not make that said some shit after he left.

Yeah, well, you guys said some shit to McNabb.

Yeah, well, he was puking in the huddle.

Max Andy Reed beat you, Andy Reed beat you in a Super Bowl.

That's also true.

That's 30 this side of the room.

Okay.

Unreal?

Dougie P Okay, next game on TV? Ravens Bengals very excited for this one.

New haircut Big cat?

New haircut can't play Can. He is unlike Canary Stoney, who I think can play worse. Joe Burrow cannot play worse.

Did he play worse in this game or against the Steelers in week one last year? No, I feel like T..J. Watt played really good in that game.

Scored in that game, though it didn't score against the Browns.

He was pretty bad. If you own any of the Bengals players on offense and fancy football, you're like, what the fuck happened last week?

What just happened? So I'm excited for this game because I just AFC North, baby, yeah, AFC North.

These teams don't like each other.

They don't like each other.

Ravens already very, very injured.

Yeah.

Oh, right, right out of the gate.

John Harbaugh Sneaky, great as a underdog, too, he's in that camp of coaches that somehow find an extra little something for underdog Phil.

I love Zay flowers.

Zay Flowers is going to be awesome.

I've been watching a lot of tape of Zay Flowers in Week one. That dude's going to be a problem.

That's the only reason why I'm kind of leaning. The Ravens is because when you have these AFC North battles, they know each other so well. Ravens are running a new offense. They ran a lot more wide receivers out there and Mark Andrews might be back.

Yeah, but they've got some linemen down.

Yeah, no, they got everything down. The Ravens are the Ravens.

Defensive line on the Bengals is going to eat this week.

They're always injured. Okay, next up Seahawks. At Lions, I was looking back through history. I think this might be the most hype Lions crowd ever because last time there. I think they're 17 to one one to win the Superbowl right now.

It's going to be awesome.

It's going to be so loud and so much fun and I'm excited to watch this Lions game. Also our friend Jared Goff. Little little fun betting Nugget 10 and one against the spread weeks one and two in his career. That's pretty cool, that's pretty good.

He loves the good weather.

He loves it, he loves early season.

Here's a bunch of reasons why I think the Seahawks might suck. Yeah, okay, they were three and five to close out the season last year, correct?

And they needed that last win to get in.

They needed the last one, they were playing for a lot. They started out the season hot, beat some good teams, beat a couple teams that they really should have beaten.

Very attractive family.

Very attractive family. Very, very attractive family. He's probably going to have a pretty good day for the Lions. So everything is telling me the Seahawks might actually suck. But it's that stat that we talked about earlier, where a team gets their ass kicked.

Can I give you a counterpoint?

Yeah.

These lions are different. Fuck, that's all I keep saying to myself. They might be different, they might be lions.

We're talking about those Lions.

You know, no, we're not talking about the same old lions, we're talking about these lions.

These lions are way better than those lions. I think what I might do is just hold my nose, take the Seahawks and then just write it off to being smart. When that bet loses, yes, it's a loss, I can live with that loss.

Yes.

No two teams in NFL history have ever combined for at least 80 points in three consecutive meetings. These two teams can do that last year 48, 45, 2021, 51 29..

You got to take the over, you got to take the over.

51 29.

And 48 45 last year.

You got to take the over, I have to. It's history.

I want to be a part of history.

Yeah, you got to be a part of history.

Three straight games, combining for 80.

There's a couple teams that are playing week two that I would actually say have must wins and can't loses, and the first one is Raiders. At Bills, the Bills must win. It does feel Monday night football was a disaster. It feels like the Bills have to win this game and they have to win it convincingly to get their swagger back a little bit.

Yeah.

The Stefan Diggs story, with the reporter who accidentally on a live mic, said He's terrible to deal with. And we'll say, Fuck you to your face. And then had to walk it back and be like, just kidding, I didn't actually mean that. Yeah, you did.

Is it not true that he'll say, Fuck you to your face, though?

That's actually a good thing.

It is a good thing he's a dog.

Yeah, you also you'd rather that than have him be passive aggressive to your face.

He's a dog, put a deal on his chest, Max.

It does feel like it's kind of, I don't want to sound the alarm so bad, but the bills just. They need to win, they need to win this game and they need to do it well, and they need to win by a lot. And everyone will be like, chill out.

Yeah, so, um, just a little little counterpoint to maybe why the bills should knock the shit out of the Raiders. The Raiders are pulling the old football guy move of staying at the Greenbrier this week.

Yeah, they've been on the East Coast.

Doesn't really make a lot of sense, no, you usually do that when you've got two East Coast games back to back, yeah.

They played in Denver.

And they played in Denver last week. And then Josh McDaniels is like, Well, you know what Bill Parcells would have? These guys stay at the Greenbrier, so I'm going to make them stay at the Greenbrier.

I also think now that you just gave us that fact I someone do some investigative journalism. But there's probably a 99 chance that Mark Davis just rented out the Raiders facility for, like, a birthday party.

Yeah.

You know what I mean, like, that's why they had to say it's not, they didn't. They weren't like, let's get a competitive advantage, staying closer to the time zone. They're like, No, we can't use it because there's a bar mitzvah at the Raiders facility.

It might also just to be we got to get some cash. They might've done to get away from Mark Davis for a week.

That would be so funny. There's a bounce house at the Raiders facility right now.

Yeah.

Mark Davis charged someone like, a hundred thousand dollars, like, Hey, look, that's a that's a practice squad player. We got to pay her guys somehow.

To me, it seems like it's a it's a try hard move on on McDaniel's part to, like, you can't break the green, brighter glass for no reason, right? You have to. You have to do that when it makes sense, right?

Right, um okay, nerd nugget.

Similar to last game, when the Raiders and Bills get together, a lot of points are typically scored. In their last five meetings, they've averaged a total of 57.2 points per game.

Okay, so another over. Okay, I do think that Josh Allen just goes nuts this week.

He has to, he will, I think he will as well.

He looks so depressed after the game. When he was saying that, like, Yeah, it feels like it felt last year, and I hate that. I feel that way. He just looks super, super down.

This is the game, right?

I want to be happy, I want Josh to be happy.

This is a must-win, get right.

Yep, he's brought to you by the farmer's dog. The results of switching your dog's food from kibble to fresh can seem like magic. When a senior dog starts acting like a puppy again. And the pickiest eaters can't wait for dinner time. You might think that some spells were cast, but the farmer's dog doesn't use any sorcery.

Um, okay, next one, I want to say right now, I was a week early. uh, I was premature.

Chase Claypool was awesome.

Chase Claypool is a bum. Get him out of here, I don't even think he's going to play, which will be good.

Uh, they should honestly cut him.

Yeah, they should, they should, but I think that it's one of those situations you can't do it right now.

Yeah, a first round pick is a second round, second round pick. You gave up for him, yeah.

Okay, Max, thanks.

So that is a first round pick. Yeah, thank you Max. Thanks Max. Um, but I know that sucks to be like, Well, we made a mistake.

Don't shake your head, don't shake your fucking head, oof.

It sucks.

Yes, what is it? Don't shake your fucking head.

It sucks to admit that you made a mistake so quickly and you gave up a lot to get just an absolute loser.

Yeah, we have two first round picks, which also sucks.

But you got a loser, but he's a loser.

Oh, he's a bum, you can't win with him. he's a bum, he. I. Two things happened way too early. That makes me very nervous.

Do they ever get concerned? Is there ever a report that they're concerned with the direction of the franchise?

There was one, I think, maybe at the end of the Treston years, where, where? Well, there was one time where George McCasky got pushed, uh, at the stadium, that was funny, uh, Virginia McCasky. I think like, was like, Uh, went and went to a game and was like, very just, you know, upset at the at, at the loss or something. These are the reports that we get. Nothing changes again, but it happens every year.

It sounds like she just needs to get laid.

Maybe you, I mean, you want to, I'll take her down.

Yeah.

Just do it, yeah, fucking bend her over, doggy baby.

Yeah, you, you name's not virgin.

McCasky's you sister, Jean and Virginia.

That's a hell of a three-way.

That would, that would maybe be the oldest three-way ever.

Yeah, I mean, they'll both been Chicago.

I'm only 27, though.

That's okay, um, the other thing that's happened way too early.

Do you think they've ever met?

Yeah, definitely, they might be the same person, I don't think I've ever seen them in the same room.

Let's look into that.

Uh, the other thing that's happened way too early. This makes me very nervous is that I've already started telling myself to first round picks.

Yeah, that's bad.

That's really bad and the Bears, they need to win this game so, so badly, cause they play the Chiefs in Kansas City next week. Oh, and three disaster start.

All right, but but counterpoint pick at an own three would look very bad on the record. It looks bad you don't. Nobody out there is going to have Chicago Bears, oh, and three in their Twitter handle.

I'll maybe have to do that now.

But what if you guys go down to Tampa Bay? The offense looks great, You guys score 35 points, they need to. The Bucks score 37 points. You would be happy with that.

Yeah, if Justin Fields look good, I would, I could, I could spin my zone, spins on myself. If it looks like it looked on Sunday, though, it's disaster. Everything I thought is gone, everything I believed.

It's not necessarily a must win, it's it's a must must offense.

No, it's, it's a must. Not look like you did against the Packers. Just do.

That was very loud.

Is that you? Yeah, I'm sorry.

That was a hiccup.

You just can't look that bad.

It must score, it's a must score game.

Must look competent.

Yeah.

That's really, let's. That's where the bar is, cause there was no competence on Sunday, and so you just need competence. Also, I'm starting to another bad thought in my head.

Well, it'd be nice if you threw the ball to him more than twice, yeah.

The bet it's bad and the tape is worse. I saw all baldies, breakdowns, it's bad. It basically just relived all week because I, I. I had a flashback this week where it was like, remember the the classic Mitch Trubisky screenshot with the Packers game?

I speak on behalf of America and probably all Bears fans. When I say, let Justin Fields run the ball, yeah, let him run the ball and do everything, put in some design runs for him.

And on top of that, Justin, if you're listening, I still have confidence in you. But don't be afraid to let it fly. Baby. Like that. Josh Allen arm punt where he threw a 60 yard interception. I'd suck a dick for one of those, okay?

It was a great interception.

You throw an interception 60 yards down the field, I can't be upset.

Let's keep a running or running stat for interception of the year. That one's because I think that Josh Allen pick was the best interception I've seen, yes.

Yes, that was great. Uh, okay. Next game Packers, Falcons.

I love the Falcons.

I got a stop for you.

I love the Falcons.

Desmond Ritter has never lost a home game in college or NFL.

That's pretty good stuff.

That's pretty good stuff.

Where are they playing this weekend?

They're playing in Atlanta.

I love, I love the Falcons offense.

And if you only love is strong.

No, here's why. Cause if you only pay attention to fancy football, you're like the Falcons. Often sucks because your guy, Drake London isn't getting any catches, because Kyle Pitts doesn't get the ball downfield. Uh, but guess what, they're playing mustache football, yeah.

Did you watch the clip, though? There's someone made a cutoff of Kyle Pitts and he was just open on everything.

I know, I know.

Every day there was one play where he juked the cornerback so bad that he broke his ankles and Desmond Ritter didn't throw him the ball. But Kyle Pitts still had to celebrate. Cause he's like, that move was incredible, like he clapped in his face.

You know what we call it? That's a good rep.

He had a lot of good reps.

He had a great rep. Uh, obviously, it'd be nice to to hit him downfield every now and again. But I still love the fact that Arthur Smith sometimes will just be like, Uh, fuck it. I feel like just running the ball. Yeah, no, just run it.

I agree with you. Um, also, I had another insults that, uh, you know how, there was, uh, you know. There was always a stat like, if you played Bama the next week, you would lose because Bama would just beat the shit out of you. Um, turns out, it's actually the reverse with the bears.

So I had a note that the bears might've softened up the last 20 years.

UH, teams have played at Soldier Field the following week, or 95, 58, and two against the spread.

Okay, that's not good.

But but 31 and 16 against the spread since 2017.

Aaron Jones might've gotten himself hurt, though. That's maybe. That's the one good thing about your defense, like, players will run so fast directly through your defense that they pull a hamstring and they can't play next week.

Yeah, so that one hurt. Uh, all right. Two more for the Uh, noon games charges of Titans. UH, Tannehill. So in his press conference, he said, Uh, guys, I just want to move on to San Diego.

Yeah.

So he said, San Diego. But it also makes me think, Um, it's actually not over. RYAn TANNEHILL I think you still suck.

Well, no, we again, we're waiting for the facts to come out. We don't have enough body of evidence yet on Tannehill. And, uh, clearly he's still figuring out this league if he doesn't know that they play in Los Angeles, correct?

This is like Urban Meyer finding out about Aaron Donald. Yeah, no one. Tell Ryan Tannehill they aren't in San Diego anymore.

Yeah, I got a couple of questions for you. Do you remember Khalil Mack?

Yeah, he was awesome, yeah, 2018..

Do you remember Joey Bosa? Yeah, it'd probably be nice if maybe a defense had those two guys and maybe they could get some pressure on the quarterback.

JOEY BOSA I would put more like, Hey, what's up, dude? And that was a shootout that got away from them with the dolphins. Khalil Mack is old now.

He is old.

He's getting old.

But still, he's still pretty good. And when you have Joey Bosa on the other side, they should meet. And they're passing the ball so much. They did a pretty good job of stopping the run. Pin your ears back, That's my, That's my coaching tip to the UH. To the superchargers of San Diego is pin your ears back this week.

Yeah, this is kind of feels like, I don't want to say a must win for the Chargers, but they kind of got to win. Cause there's a lot like this season is supposed to be a big one for him.

It should be, uh, in the In the Titans game last week, there was a great video that came out. If you haven't seen it, go watch the Saints. It was inside the N.FL, Derek Carr on the sidelines against the Titans to win the game. And he goes over to the sidelines. He's like, Hey, just run a go route, run a go route.

I know we'll get to the Dolphins game, but um, I've been, I've been watching some, some film. Twitter, Uh, as you can tell, the Mike McDaniel adjustment that they made against the Chargers, so basically when they play the Chargers. Last year, they were running Tyree Kill in motion and the Chargers were able to figure out where he's going. Because he's coming in motion. And they basically decided this year to run Tyree Kill in motion without running them in motion. Cause he's so fucking fast. So he would like they would snap the ball and he would run sideways and then come looping around and no one could guard him.

Should motion be legal? I like motion. Feels like it's a running start.

I like motion, because, uh, if you root for bad football, a bad football team, it feels like you're at least trying something.

It's like pussy football.

Lineup like men, you know, the play's not going to work, but at least she looks like it's like busy work.

Yeah.

It's like, Hey, I'm doing something over here.

Yeah, um, you've been watching a lot of Twitter film.

Yeah, I've been watching a lot of film.

Yeah, I like I do most of my film watching. Also on Twitter. I guess it's X videos. if you're watching it, I watch a lot of X videos during the week. To study a nerd nugget.

Los Angeles has absolutely dominated the series as of late, winning 11 of the past 13.
