Gronk and Jules React to a Miracle at Mile High and NFL Week 8 Thrillers | Gronk & Jules Show

they were supposed to lose that game. It would have been a miracle, like the Miami miracle. Oh my gosh, I was gonna talk about that real quick. Every frickin' time they're playing the dolphins in Miami, and I'm watching the Patriots, man. They gotta show that Miami miracle. I slipped, okay, or else I would have made that tackle. (upbeat rock music) - We changed this six pack up about a thousand times. It was that kind of day. It was that kind of day in the National Football League. I mean, it was very spooky out there on the football field. A lot of craziness. Halloween week. - Yeah, we didn't know what costumes we were gonna see. We didn't know what candy we were gonna get, but let me tell you, we got an absolute treat. - Absolute treat. - Sure did, no apples, no toothbrushes, none of that lame stuff getting given out today. The whole food stuff only, no granola, nothing. Just straight care. And with that being said, we gotta go to mile high. We gotta go out to Denver for what was the wildest game came in our late slot here. Denver, Kansas City, Patrick Mahomes, had owned Denver up until this point, 14 and two, but 15 straight points from Denver in the fourth quarter. It went missing 20, 24. What the heck? I mean, holy smokes. Jules, how did this happen? - It happened. It's crazy. It was like a boring game at first. - Right. - Kansas City's up. - It was. - 11 points in the fourth quarter. 10 points in the fourth quarter. And then that big RJ Harvey run, set some up. They get the score. I mean, this was, it was crazy. Insane. You know what it was, the difference. The difference was fourth down, man. - Yeah, I mean, you look at these numbers. - The Broncos were two for two on fourth down. At the end of the game, when we thought Mahomes was gonna bring them back, always beats up on these guys. In mile high, fourth and one. Ball start, fourth and five. Sack. It just, my thought, when I watched this game, Kansas City is missing a playmaker on offense, like at the receiver position. Everyone's banking on the run right now with Kansas City since last week, how they lost the game. You know, Kenneth Walker didn't have that big of a game last week. They lose to Seattle. They got dominated. - Yeah, they get dominated. This week, the run game still wasn't there. And it just looks like they're, I mean, you had a couple good plays by Rishi Rice. It just was crazy to me. That like bonics led them down. They get the score at the end and Patrick Mahomes couldn't get it done. It was like, it must have been Halloween last night or something. - It was Julian. It was Halloween. And I was waiting to see your costume, but you didn't post anything. I'm disappointed. Yeah, you posted the Dom and Dom are a picture of us from last year. And that still is very qualified, but I wanted to see you dressed up this year. So send me a little text message after we're done here today. I want to see what you were doing last night on Halloween. But this game wasn't just won because of Fort Downs. I think a big difference was the kicking game once again. This kicking game has been just, yes. Buckner, another miss. This kicking game has just been lingering around the last couple of weeks. In the NFL, these kickers are just missing. I don't know the reason why they're missing. I don't know what's going on. I don't know if it's windy in America right now. I don't know if it's, you know, trick or treaters, all dressed up scaring these kickers. What the deal is, Jack, but that's a big difference maker. And Kansas City basically gave this game away. I was texting my buddy who was in Denver at the game. Actually, I wrote, yo, beginning of fourth quarter, yo, Denver has no chance. They don't have the offense. They're not explosive enough, you know, to go down the field and make the plays that need to have a comeback. They don't have the explosive 20 plus yard plays. And then boom, they missed that field goal. And then all of a sudden, Denver, I don't know, on that plate to the running back, they boom. Boom, Nick's hit some. He brings it all the way, Harvey. He brings it all the way down into their red zone and boom, they score on that drive to take the lead. So yes, the big difference. Momentum changer was definitely that miss field goal. And it gave Denver at mile high that momentum to just keep it rolling. And then Denver almost gave the game away. Once Kansas City got the ball back. These teams, you got to learn how to close out games if you want to win big ones in the NFL. Yeah, but, you know, I mean, right when Pat Mahomes got the ball, two minutes in the game, right? Two minutes, they go down, they hit the running back, then they hit Travis for like a big chunk game. I'm sitting there like, oh, they're going to do it again. In this movie before. I've seen this movie before and a hundred, a hundred times before. And then look, Denver made the play at the end of the game. What did this win tell you guys about Denver? It's the same story. They're just competitors. It really is. They fight. They fight. It's, it's sloppy. It doesn't look great. It's kind of like bone nicks. You know, he's, he's not playing great, but he just keeps grinding. That's like the definition of the Denver Broncos. There were two for 11, 24 11 is not, but that's not, that's 24 11 and how they're playing. That's not going to be good enough down the road, you know, no, it just really isn't going to be, but they were great in the red area. There was no turnovers in the game. No, clean game. So that's why like it was kind of like a back and forth game, kind of sloppy at first. And the, the lightning or the fireworks came at the end of the game. It was nuts. Unbelievable. I can't believe they couldn't get that touchdown. We're five, six and two, four, no at home. I think they're both in that kind of same range, though. Like Kansas City just rattled off their second loss in a row. That was kind of a weird, like template type game that they lost against Seattle. Now everyone's going to be trying to put everyone in the box and make them, make Patrick my home's beach. You throw on the football now. Right. That's what teams are daring them to do. That's what they're daring them to do. And then you look on the other side, like the Broncos are offense isn't kind of there yet. It's still hard, very hard. We don't have like a leap running back. We don't have, you know, big explosion plays on offense with the, the receivers, Waddle, where has he been? Like, so there's been a lot of like question marks. I think they're both, it's just that middle grind part of the season right now. We're fully, you're kind of learning what you are. And the execution quite wasn't where you wanted it, but still turned out to be a hell of a game. It was a win for Denver, big win for Denver and Kansas City was about to win that game as well. You know, they did score on that fourth and goal. But then it got called back and made a fourth and goal from the six yard line because of a false star. And it was the literalist flinch. I bet you, if the referees didn't call that flinch on the offense attack or the right tackle, that it would have went unnoticed to basically everyone in the whole entire stadium at mile high. And even anyone that was watching the game on TV was a slight flinch. I'm not even sure, like, if it truly is a false star, I think he was kind of like looking towards the ball and like his left arm flinch a little bit, but that was one of the main reasons why Kansas City lost that game as well. They gave the game away by not being disciplined and having that false star by their right tackle. Otherwise they did win that game because Patrick Maholms did hit his wide receiver for that fourth down place for a touchdown prior to the penalty. Me. Yeah. There's a lot of question marks in this game. Amen. We got to give a shout out to them. Johnson too. Beast. But that's the problem. If he's, if he's your number one receiver, I know he went for a 128 as the running back. That means they're like still trying to find someone. They don't have that one guy that like, you know, Kelsey's a little older now. He's not like the go to guy on the go to targets anymore as much, especially when, you know, the defense knows that too. They're struggling to find the guy who can make the play for them when they need it. Kansas City Chiefs have to button it up and they need a playmaker on the off the side of the ball because teams are figuring out, hey, let's stop the run. Let's force them to pass and let's go from there and it's worked the last two weeks. Now let's go to the desert, Jack. Yeah, maybe. Well said, Robbie G. For another, I mean, this might be upset of the weekend. Dallas, Arizona, down in Jerry world, 33, 30 Arizona stuns the cowboys, goes down there. We got Mintchumania back, baby. I mean, Arizona owns Jerry world, five and oh, five and oh since it opened. So they pulled Jacobi. They pulled him. They put in Menshue. Gardner Menshue. Menshue goes 17 for 23, three Tuddies and they get a win. So does Jacobi, does he still get the money? I think he still gets a 285 in the deal, but I think so. He deserves it. He deserves it as well. Yeah, straight to the bank, you know, Dallas kind of controlled it. Jacobi and the boys weren't doing anything on offense. We pretty much weren't even watching it. We're checking in here and there. Yeah. And then all of a sudden, we look back and and Menshue's going in for a win 24 to 10 in the quarter, it was holy crap, you know, I'm really, I'm like sad. It made me sad that the Cowboys lost like this because I want the Cowboys to be so good just because it's just good for football when the Cowboys are good. Oh, for sure. It's fun. I agree with you, Jules. They're like the biggest. They're good. That's so bad. Like everyone tunes into the Cowboys. If you like the Cowboys, if you don't like the Cowboys, you want to know what the Cowboys did on any given Sunday, you want to know you're just interested. They peak your interest and it's just disappointing that they just lost this game like this. It's not good. you know, it's not good. It means the Dallas Cowboys are still the Dallas Cowboys, you know, of the past five, six, seven years. They're literally the same exact team. They gotta find a way to close out these type of games, Jules. They really do. They can't let the Arizona carnivores come back and from such a deficit and come back and win this game. For me, they're not getting the run game going. When Javante Williams goes for 100 or 120, they usually win 24 carries for 56 yards. I ain't going to get it done. And it's just like, yeah, they have a lot of firepower on the outside. But it's just like it, it's so hard to be in dropback past game and try to methodically go down the field all day long without a run game without a big, you know, without a big explosion play, these teams will play in that too safety. And like they didn't turn the ball over. It's crazy. They did all it's just it's crazy that they lost this game to me. You let up 30 points in the second half and over time. Holy smokes, Taylor, two halves. The tackling was bad bad bad. I mean, Al Jir bald out. Shout out to the alligator ball ball. Is this ball? I know there's been you. I've got a job for the next five years too. Backs, bro. Let's go, man. She might be hyperbole. Is this the worst loss of the season so far? It's up. I mean, who'd they lose to? It's up there. It's up there. It's up there. He got caught saying this is embarrassing. I wonder what that guy in the tunnel had to say. You know what I mean? Like they've had some of these bad losses where they shouldn't have lost these games going into the game. No. If you want to be like a big boy team, and this is not going to help their case. They got to find something on defense, man. That's bad. You can't they still scored 30 points on offense. Right. Right. You know, I mean, you'll still lose a game. She's Louise. They brought in, you know, Parker washing or they brought in Christian Parker's mentor to help them. Like they got to figure something out. Maybe the guys, they got to look in the mirror. Amen. Hey, no shade. Parker washing they might do a better job calling that defense. No, man. That's a bad loss, man. That one hurt me. Really bad. Jerry can't be happy with this one. Hey, Jules, what about Trey McBride talking garbage to Caleb Downs asking him, why were you a first-round pick, bro? Like, what do you think about that? I love Trey McBride, man. I didn't know he brings this much eat to the table. This whole year he's been talking garbage to players, to referees, at all times on the field. And now he's telling Caleb Downs, hey, why were you a first-round pick? Like right there, right in front of his face. What do you think about that? I think that's crazy, because Caleb Downs is making plays out there. Yes, he really is. It's just McBride. Don't give a I love about any of it. I love it. He plays with that talk, man. He plays with a lot of juice. And it's contagious. Look, he made some big plays out there. They go out and win a ballgame. He backed it up. So, you know, I was actually I always can go either two ways here, man. They can either go two ways here, but what they either got to they got to figure out what they got to do on defense. Or it could be a punt season. This could be a punt season. Like it's getting right that part of the season. We're halfway, halfway through. Thank God they're in that division, that the rim, because they still have a chance, even though where they are right now. But when I do love what you said, that trademark ride, he really is contagious. That's kind of how the Arizona Cardinals are playing. That's their personality is that they're gritty. That they're going out there. They're going to be in the game that they're going to work their tail off. And they're going to talk to talk to shit that they need to talk. And that's trademark ride. They're adapting his personality. And it's getting these guys wins that they shouldn't win in the desert, you know. So I got to give it to him. I think trademark ride is the reason why this team is picking it up when they need to pick it up, because he's bringing that juice to the table. He's leading these guys to where they need to go to. Man, shout out to the Cardinals, man. No quitting these guys. I mean, like deck put up a decent stat line. Didn't turn it over. Their offense is always going to perform. They really are. Even if they turn it over, don't turn it over. Jack that off and stack, you know, he's a leader on the offence side of the ball. It's just, can their defense perform? Can their defense, you know, hold the opponent to less points? And what their offense is going to put up, I mean, it's, it hasn't really happened much this year. And even though when they do win, they still let up a lot of points still. So they got to get it together. I've had a couple of friends, St. Brian Shionheimer is basically Jason Garrett with a visor on, you know, it's just a continuation over the last 10 years. How they been playing, that's a Mike McCarthy. They had Mike. They did. That's why I skipped it right now. He sure is. That's why I skipped that era. That's why I skipped Mike McCarthy because he's doing a fine job, you know, over in Pittsburgh. Man, so true. Man, I mean, that's a crazy one. Shout out Michael floor, but everyone's favorite. That's a, that's a, that's a confidence killing loss. And they've already had like a confidence killing loss against the Bucks. Like this is one of those games where you guys sit and look at each other in the locker room. Like, man, what do we got to do? You know, I mean, like we're doing everything what the coach says. We're not turning the ball over. I mean, yeah, we could have been better on third down. We were okay in the red area, but like, what do we do, Rob? It's like one of those, like after the game where we're sitting at the locker room, just like looking at each other. Coach just left the, the, the locker room. It's just the guys in there. We got like two minutes before the media. You're just sitting there. You're like, what, what do we do, man? What, what do we got to do? And here's a, and, and also in that conversation, here's the problem as well. It's like, yeah, what do we do? But we were entertaining out there. You know, we did put up points and we lost, like at least we competed in the game. At least we showed out. At least people are tuning in. But like, what do we do? How do we win games? That's the conversation that's going on. Let's move on. Let's give me, let's give me the press. The Cowboys are entertaining. It is. It's the Cowboys are entertaining. At least that's a plus. And they are entertaining even though they're losing games that they shouldn't be losing. I got a game changer for y'all. Like a Gronk mismatch in the red zone or a third and long miracle. No, I'm talking Walmart plus and Sam's club plus together. That's right. Now you can get both memberships and all their benefits for one unbeatable price. Now that's what I call going for two like T W O great pun jewels and it gets even better. Both memberships have tons of time and money saving benefits like free same day delivery with Walmart plus and 2% cashback at Sam's club. This really is a game changer and we thought we were the iconic duo. Nah, we weren't. From one bad loss to a near bad loss, Tennessee at Sincy, we're heading to the jungle right now for another overtime thriller 4336. The bangles escape behind Joe Burles 462 yards and five touchdowns. Holy smokes. I mean Rob can you please for the love of God. Give us any advice on how Sincy can avoid these slow starts. It's, we've seen this movie a million times. I mean, we really have. They're the same thing as the Dallas Cowboys over the last 10 years. The bangles are the same team over the last like six, seven years as well with Joe Burles as they're quarter back slow start to the year or slow start to games. It's all about slow starts and Cincinnati and how do they fix that? They got to overcome that in practice. I believe. I mean, instead of going out there stretching for an hour or so before practice, come boom, the first period is, oh boom, we have a situation. It's third and 20 on our opponent's 20 yard line and it's third down and we got to score the next two plays. They got to have that sense of urgency from the very beginning of the game for the Cincinnati bangles. I think that starts in practice and you got to engrave that starting at practice throughout the week. So then boom, when they hit the game, it's hey, we got to score right here. This is a situation already. Hey, we can't sit here and wait till, you know, Jamar chase makes a big play or T Higgins makes a big play or Joe burrow has insane throw. Let's get it going right now right here in the very first quarter. Yeah, I mean, they're and also jewels. What do you think their pregame meal is? I mean, whatever their pregame meal is, two hours, are they slow? Are they heavy? Are they having shake, shake milkshakes? What's going on? I don't know. Whatever the pregame is, whatever the pregame meal is, we need to change it. Scrap the menu. We need to scrap the menu. Ted, get us some new stuff. That's our that was our nutritionist shout out. Ted, get us some new juju at the meal. Whatever it is, man, they got it. Like they're 14 point favorites. And they gave these guys 14 points and they, the Tennessee Titans lost their best football player this week. Simmons, they still went out there and almost won this thing. And that's on the road. That right there is the NFL facts like you can you can ship your best guy out, but still the teams are a lot closer than you actually think in talent because no one saw this coming. I mean, Joe burrow, you guys turn the ball over. You know, they gave him time after time. Like they did well on third down. It's just that first Joe, Joe, Joey B couldn't stop them on the ball to the other team. Well, it's yet three picks. I'm gonna do it brother. You know, but like they're so this is what you think the Cowboys should be when they turn it on. Yeah, they turn it on. Like the Bengals, they turn on their offense. They turn on their offense. Like they, they can't be stopped. They got to figure a way out. The defense couldn't tackle again. They forgot how to tackle again, giving up 36 to Tennessee. But look, when the defense needed it, Dexter Lawrence had that big sack, came through clutch, came through clutch. And was that overtime? That was big. That was, uh, it had pretty much still the thing, wasn't it? Yeah. So like they're, their big players made big plays when they needed them to. But like, we got to, we got to get this thing going. Hey, it jules. Right now, as it stands, Cincinnati contender or pretender in the AFC, I still think with their offense, they're, they're still contenders. They're still contenders. I, the only thing that makes me scared they don't have a run game. Yeah. I hate when teams don't have a run game because that's how you control the game. Even if you have like kind of a defense at struggling, you keep that defense off the field. You know, and it's hard to do that when you're, you're going 16 play drives and you're dropping back every time. And now, like, these guys, the NFL's good. NFL's good. That's hard. And Jules, that, that, that NFL is not just good. The NFL is great. And it doesn't matter. The talent, you know, that you think that our team has, they still got talent, no matter what, even if you don't know the players, those guys are the best high school athletes. They were the best, you know, at their college still, you know, it's just a slight difference in talent. But here's the thing, when you don't have a run game as well, Juleen, you can't close out games. You can't control the clock. You can't run down, you know, drives and have, you know, six, seven, eight minute drives at the end of the game in the fourth quarter. So the other team doesn't get the ball back. So when you don't have a run game, you're kind of always giving the other team a chance, you know, to win the game still, a chance to come back, because you know, they can't run down the time. Unless if it's a miracle and they boom, they hit every pass down the field, but that's never usually the case when you got to run time off the clock. It's, hey, let's run the ball. That's how, that's majority how every team does it. So when you can't run the ball, it's scary in those situations to close out games. You're always giving the other team a chance. Very true, but these Cincinnati bangles, man, they're five and two now, like their legit, their pretenders, but they're also a little, they're, I didn't take it back. I meant contenders, but they're also a little pretend a little bit just because of the miscues that we're bringing up. A lot of turnover still. They can't run the ball and their defense can't tackle and they can't control the clock, but their offense is so fire and we love watching them go. T Hagen's Jamar Chase, Joe Barrow, they got a couple tight ends as well. You got to love them. You got to tune into the Cincinnati bangles. They are a firework show, basically every weekend as well. Look at the stat lines for those boys on the Higgins, 10 receptions, 155, two touchdowns, Jamar 11 receptions, 141, and a touchdown. Like they performed no matter what those two guys, I mean, and Joey B, he does know how to deal. Like if there's one guy that gets hot, that can do it. It could be Joe, but they've lost two games. They're two losses. They had a chance to win at the end of the game. This is true. So like maybe they're just collecting, you know, they're collecting some experience in that category going forward. It'll help them. Let's hope to learn from those losses guys. I mean, this could have easily been like a really bad loss, like unlike the Cowboys, but they got it done. They got it done. They got those picks like way him down either. He's bouncing back. I'm seeing a theme in the NFL right now, which I kind of like, which all NFL fans should like as well, is that there's really no terrible, terrible team yet in the NFL. I feel like still any team can be any other, any other team, any given Sunday, you know, all headed into week, you know, nine next week as well. Like the Tennessee Titans, we all know that they're one of the bottom feeders in the NFL, but they're competing. They have fight. It's not like you're going to blow them out. And yes, they'll beat you as well. If you take them lightly, that's what makes the NFL so great. And especially this year because even the bottom teams are still fighting. And up next, we got the New England Patriots versus Miami Dolphins and the Miami Dolphins are awesome. A bottom feeder team, but they have fight as well. Their coach great. They don't give up. They just don't have enough playmakers to win the games on the offensive side of the ball. And that's why they only have one win. But you don't see any teams right now that are like the Detroit Lions or like the New York Jets over the last like six years, even the Jets are a better team. You know, that or the Detroit Lions go back to them when they were all in 16. They were just horrendous, getting blown out by 50 points. You don't see that yet in the NFL. I'm sure a couple teams are going to start tanking in about three, four more weeks. But right now it's any given Sunday still, Jack. And you got to appreciate that in the NFL all the way all the way through week eight. We love some parody. Amen. And speaking of that, as you mentioned, Rob, no bottom feeders out here, another near near upset. The Patriots had to overcome a 13 to three halftime deficit to win this thing down in Miami 24 19 notoriously tough place to play. Rob, what did you learn about the Patriots in this one? Yeah, that we have fight. No matter what the situation is, we're down, going into the half that we can make the adjustments that the Patriots need to make. I'm saying we like we're on the team, but the Patriots, well, we, you know, we are a fan of them. So, you know, it's just naturally to say we, but the Patriots can make the adjustments. That's what Josh McDaniels is for on the off the side of the ball. He opened up the offense. He goes, Hey, we got to make a change. Let's start throwing the ball down the field. Let's trust and Drake may more, you know, let's get the ball. Let's push it down the field. Let's get huge gains. Let's get explosive plays. And that's what changed the whole momentum of this game when Drake may start launching it down the field into Williams for that, you know, touchdown. I think that was the momentum in slash game changer of the whole entire game. Once you call that Kyle Williams for that big time touchdown, the bomb, the bomb. Yeah, it's like NFL blitz. The bomb. You do that every single play. The bomb, but that was the game changer. That was the difference. Josh McDaniels adjusting the offense and letting him, Drake may just air it out. Look, I thought this was a big time win. Okay, this could have been a real easy game for the New England Patriots to give up and let the dolphins win. They're depleted on offense right now. They got a lot of money. That's not out there. Okay, they're two starting receivers that they brought in this off season weren't there. So they're relying on a lot of guys that don't have a lot of experience. They made some big plays. Kyle, etc. Chis, he had a couple of big plays. They also have two young guards or they have two guards backup guards in right now. And on that big touchdown pass to Kyle Williams. I mean, Drake was patting the ball. He was buttering the biscuit back there. He had some time. So he was able to make that play. Drake's playing very well right now. He's taking the game. He took the game in his own hands, you know, with his legs and being able to buy time and hit guys like he's playing well. Defense made a bunch of big plays. It's always tough playing in Miami against Miami, regardless of the situation. I thought this was a very solid win for the Patriots with how many guys are not in the lineup. That's that time of the year right now for every team. But they handled it pretty well and to get out of there with the win division win. That's huge man. That's huge. We've lost there a bunch. It's not easy playing there. I mean, the humidity, it looked like it was raining there. I mean, the rain game too. Yes, on the West Coast in Tampa. I mean, it was a hurricane over there. So it just makes sense that Miami is raining as well. Because when it's raining somewhere in Florida, there's going to be another in one spot of Florida. There's going to be a cloud raining somewhere else in Florida. So it was raining down there. It was probably humid as can be the Patriots. You don't really practice in that humidity. You're not really used to it. So you're sweating in your balls off. You know, you're gasping for air in that humidity. You're taking deep breaths in your lungs. I mean, it gets to you eventually, especially going into the third and fourth quarter, but they picked it up in those quarters. They they elevated to where they needed to be. But the Miami Dolphins, their head coach, I'm telling you, he's something. He was a head coach at Boston College. And when I was doing that fan duel kick of destiny, where I was doing that first live commercial of all time, first one ever at a super ball. It was when I was kicking the field goal. I was practicing about three times a week at Boston College. And then all of a sudden, there had coach left. And I asked a couple guys that were, you know, training me that were on the staff. I was like, why do you leave? Why do you go to the NFL? He was doing good at Boston College. He's like, you know something? Like he doesn't like the end. I and I out. He just likes to coach. You know, he likes to just do concentrate on football. He's all about football and being a head coach, you know, in college, you know, you're all over the place with recruiting, with paying guys, all that nonsense. So he left to go be the defensive coordinator at Green Bay. And at that moment, I was like, that's respect, you know, when coaches don't want to deal with that, even other guys like Sabin, like he left the game because of that reason as well, which is true because you're not just focusing on football. I was like, you know, this guy's just football minded. I love coaches like that. You got to respect that situation. And then when I saw he was higher down in Miami, and I'm seeing the type of job that he's doing, his offense is horrendous. He doesn't have the players, you know, to make the big time plays to win games, but they are competing every single week and they're in every single game as well. So Miami, they got something with this high coach, I believe. Logan Ryan thought he was like one of the best coaches he ever had. And Logan Ryan's a smart football player, what he says, I believe darn right. know. Loving Ryan's one of the smartest football players. Yes. And that's why he's in the booth now as well. Tough day for the Miami dolphins to lose like that. But look, this is a hell of a tank job season. They're very close. They're very close in all these losses. But they're lost to masterclass taking. I don't I don't think it's a tough day for Miami losing that game. It would have been a miracle like the Miami miracle. Oh my gosh. It's talking about that real quick. Every fricking time they're playing the dolphins in Miami. I'm watching the Patriots, man. They got to show that Miami miracle. I slipped. Okay. Or else I would have made that tackle. I don't know how Christ. Why are you even in? That was like 900 yards away. Oh my god. Let's move on. We thought they were going to do a hell marry. Yeah. We missed judgment. We missed judgment as a team. But I thought it was pretty cool that I was back there at that moment. I didn't care that I was back there. Even though I was like, what am I doing here? Because it's not a hell marry. But I mean, if I can go back, I would put myself back in that situation because it's a hell of a story now, baby. That's what it's always about. All right. Now that's the story. That was our last loss. All right. Oh, yeah. No, no, no. We lost the following week to the Pittsburgh Steelers. Oh, yeah. One of our worst games. Good memory. We had two in a row. And we were we were awful two games in a row. Actually, Miami, we were decent in Pittsburgh. We were got off. I'm telling you like no one was on. Yeah. That was when Joe Hayden had the interception over both of us, Julia. We both were like slow motion, trying to slap the ball out of the air. And he just jumped up in the air. Yeah. You hit your foot. I was slow as can be. Yeah. But then we didn't lose a game from there on out. So let's move on. Let's turn the page. Let's go to the motor city here for Minnesota Detroit. I mean, the NFC North. Do we love this division? Or what? This was this was a rock fight burn burner grinded out tough divisional game Detroit escapes to give Minnesota their first loss. 19 to 15. I mean, what a score. This is crazy. I mean, that is a grind it out kind of score. Jules, what did you learn in this one with MC DC and these these lions, man. Well, he didn't go for it. He didn't go for it on four days. They won the game. There it is. And he said, I feel goals. They kick two field goals. They win the game. I'm just listening to us, Jules. He's listening to grow. It's two field goals. First time I ever seen him a line up with the field goal kicker. Elf rose over. Yes. And they win the game and pigs flew. Yes. Seriously. I'm worried DC. I'm worried about the Vikings now. Are you really? Yeah. I thought, you know, I've been trying to give Kyler and KOC, you know, some slack these last few weeks. Like they'll figure it out, but it's just it looks so hard right now. It looks hard for it. It does. It just they don't know rhythm on offense and like they can't get anything in the rush game. Kyler's your lead rusher. It's just it's I'm worried. And then you look over on the other side. I mean, you only gave up 19 points to an offense that can put up points for up 30 in a heart beat for the Lions. You know, it was just an ugly game that. Jameer Gibbs took over took over. And so did Jmo. Yeah, yeah. I mean, it was the Jmo Gibbs show. And I think Jules, in order to be a defense like the Minnesota Vikings, you got to have explosive players. Exactly. Like Detroit Lions have like JMO. JMO is one of the most explosive players in the NFL. Jameer Gibbs, one of the most explosive running backs in the NFL. That's how you keep that defense on their toes. That's how you beat them. But what's crazy about it is that the Detroit Lions, I saw them trying to, you know, throw the defense off a little bit. They hurried up to a line of scrimmage. This is just how pointing how well coach they are under Brian floors that they hurried up to the off, you know, they hurried up to a line of scrimmage. The offense hiked it and boom, they were still able to blitz and still able to sack Jared golf. I just just started clapping on the couch and just tip my hat to Brian floor. It's like, wow, he even has that defense prepared to the tee to wear when the Lions hurry up to the line of scrimmage and snap it. They're still ready to go and they can still get their calls off. So that's coaching right there. And that just shows how well coach they are. You got to tip, you got to tip your hat to the Detroit defensive coordinator, chef, who's been, you know, he's being killed by everyone. Look, they're not really though. He went first to Minnesota Vikings offense jules. You're just saying. It's still a division win. It's a division win points. Yes, they killed them on. They over there. Kyler, though, was, he was struggling, though. There was some times in some situations where he could easily hit his, you know, three friends and he was just throwing it. He was off. Yes, he was off the little bit. It's been off. And it's they don't have a run game to like help that rhythm get involved. Like Mason's coming back from injury. Jones is like he's kind of like beat up still. So we get Jonathan Taylor in there or what? That would be a huge that if they got Jonathan Taylor, that could be. That could be huge for all. That could be a game changer for them. It's going to be real interesting. These next couple weeks about with these trades. Let's move on. Amen. Oh my goodness gracious. Let's move on to the last installment of our six pack said to the metal hands here for what turned out to be a points fest. Las Vegas comes across the country early start 10 a.m. kick for those guys. Punch New York in the mouth, but up 38. When this thing Kirk cousins plays a heck of a game. I mean, this was a great Brock Bower's performance. But look at the Raiders still getting it done. Holy smokes. Raiders don't have an explosive receiver. And they're still putting up 38. 38. Like it's crazy. The two tight ends beat for them. And Kurt played very solid football really did. There are seven for 11 on third down. Four for four in the red area. That's coaching and good quarterback play. Yep. And that's a hard place to play travel across the country. Go play against the jets. We weren't going to lay down for anyone. They played a solid game in their own. Seriously. Like that's a big time win for Vegas who, you know, they in playing a lot of tough games where they're losing a lot of good football teams. They're once again in another dog fight and they come out with the win. That's a big win, man. That was huge. Yeah. Talking about the last Vegas Raiders in their wide receiver corpse. Everyone's talking, hey, the Kansas City Chiefs should trade for a wide receiver. The Patriots should possibly trade for a wide receiver. Well, Jules, shall the Raiders trade for a wide receiver? Yeah. Well, we don't know if they're, they're going to be, you know, going to the playoffs this year. We don't know. They're four and four. That's a good point. You know, you're going to, you're going to mortgage your future for a receiver that's not going to help you this year to win a super. Well, I don't know. I probably wouldn't do that. That's a great point because when you do mortgage your future, it's either you get, you're getting a guy that you know is young and that can build throughout the years, which that's, that's not going to really be the case in the trade. You usually get a guy that's more of a veteran. You know, has a couple of years left and you're Morgan in the future just so that guy can help you right then. And now that is a great point, Julian. But the Raiders, they do need a wide receiver. They've got to get one in the off season coming up or possibly in the draft. They got the best. I would say Titan Tandem in the NFL at Michael Mayer, who was a second-round pick out of Notre Dame, who, you know, who's very, very solid. He's kind of more of like, you know, a style of playing like like myself. And then you got Brock Bowers a complete compliment, you know, you know, to each other at that position, where you can have that 12 personnel on the field. Both of them at the same time and you don't know what you're going to get because they both have a totally different skill set, which is huge. That's how you want it between, you know, two legitimate starting tight ends on your roster. But just overall, lots of Vegas keeps finding ways to win. Let's get this out of the way right now. Kirk Cousins is going to be your starter. Once again, next week Fernando Mendoza, keep him on the bench for a while. Let him keep riding like I said, he's only going to play. Once the Raiders are eliminated from the playoffs, or Kirk Cousins not going to what if accidentally gets harder or something, because you know, I'm not even going to bring this up. His play is elite right now. It's not going to go down at all. It's just getting better and better every single week. So that situation is not going to occur for Fernando to go in and get some time. So the Raiders, they're defense as well. You know, they're letting up too many points. You know, they got to button that up. They look good at the beginning of the season, but they got to get stronger and they got to tackle better as well. And how about our guy? What was the Long Island kid, Dylan Lobby. Lobby kid goes down out the gate. 98 yard in the second quarter. First kick return of the season. It's the first kick return in his hometown. Long out that. He had like 30 tickets. That's a fun you and age. That's a fun day. That's big time. That is big time. 30 tickets. Do you think he lost money in this game because of how many tickets he had to get? Yeah, definitely worth every penny, definitely. But oh my god, you go out in front of your friends and you house a kick, man. That's a awesome day. And that's a huge part of the win. They needed that massive. They needed that. Like that was just a good team win. They had a big stop at the end. Raiders got a little little mojo. We'll see. I'm real interested to see him, you know, going on in the middle of the season. They too. Four and four. Are they going to continue to win or is like Kurt's playing really good football? You got a tough stretch coming up though. I mean, 19 for 26 247 three touchdowns and a rushing touchdown. Come on, Kurt. let's go. Let's go. Let's go. Let's go. Let's go. Let's go. That was a big way to put a radius, but let's just talk about the situation awareness by the New York Jets at end of the game. I mean, we're seeing this on a continuous basis, not just with the Jets, you know, in this game, but with so many different teams, it just happens, you know, to a new team every single week, but like they're on the Las Vegas 35. There's a good amount of time left and they're down three points and they launched a ball into the Yenzone, a hell marry. And it got intercepted and they could easily, you know, had another play. I think they should have ran some crossing routes instead of throwing a hell marry. I felt like they felt like the urgency was a hell marry. It wasn't like at the Miami Miracle here at Julian, where I was, you know, back there in that case, you launched it up, but, you know, they should have ran a play where they could have dumped it off and at least gained 10, 20 yards and they had a timeout as well. So that, that's just situational football that you got to be alert to that gives you a better chance to win games. And it has to be stressed more. I feel like that starts in the front office. It starts with the coaching staff, you know, in training camp as well. Be situational aware. So you give your team the best chance to win games. Yeah. I was, it was a little, little frost off. I mean, the Raiders loved it. This is true. Good interception. Way to close that. I mean, I mean, it was cool to see the hell marry. But I like, I wanted to see two hell marries in a row or something. I wanted to see two chances. Like, I took away some football from me. Yeah. Come on, man. I think there was not, there were seven seconds left on the clock. I think seven seconds was it when the guy intercepted it? Like, come on. Like, you got two chances. You don't, don't waste a chance and toss it in the end zone like that. I felt like one of the guys should have crossed across the field. I saw the replay from, you know, the up top camera and they all just went deep into the end zone. Yeah, get a chunk play. And then boom, you're 20 yards closer to the end zone. You can just rifle it in, bowl it in. It gives you a better chance. Chances probably go up only about six, seven percent. But still, that's a better chance to win the games. That's what it's all about. Probability. You know, right? I agree with you, Rob. Six, seven percent, man. Thank you, Jules. Your situation, right? Six, seven, eight percent. Yeah, situation. I'll wear it with my mathematics. You think deciding whether to go for it on a fourth down in the red zone is complicated. Look, we spend way too much time complicating things back in the day. They'd hand me a three inch binder full of plays to memorize. Nowadays, it's trying to decipher your phone bill and the plan you're on. Life's a lot better when you just keep it simple. Right? That's why I got to tell you about Verizon's simplicity plan. They took all the guesswork out. It's one plan, one price, just 30 bucks a line per month. Even if you're flying solo, it's still 30 bucks. Plus, you get Verizon's best 5G network. Now, when it comes to your phone, you can do what works for you already love your phone. Great. Keep it. Need a new one? Verizon has you covered. And you can upgrade to the newest phone every year for an additional monthly charge. Let's run the tape back real quick. One plan, one price, 30 dollars a line per month when you switch. Their best network for everyone and your phone your way. Their new customers, 30 dollars a line includes auto pay and switch discount, additional taxes, fees and terms apply. Man, this season's been a wild one so far. At this point, I feel like anyone can make it to the big game. Seriously, and you know what? I'm already thinking about the food, the tailgating, the whole atmosphere. There's nothing like it. What are you guys most looking forward to? All of that plus meeting some celebrities and doing some fun interviews. It's always so fun to see who is in town for all the festivities. That all sounds awesome, but we still have a whole season to go. Isn't it a little early to be thinking about the big game? Not for guys like us already looking to book their trip to LA. And for anyone who's in LA and looking to make extra cash, baby, it's definitely not too early to list your space on Airbnb. Good point. If you're in LA, fans already are looking for places to stay, so why not be the place they find you can make some extra cash listing your space for the big game. Find out how much at air B and B dot com slash host. Did we hit the meme corner? Let's hit the meme. Oh my god. What a week. Let's hit the meme corner. We got to turn the clock back to Thursday night football panthers backers. This Christian Watson return. This is crazy. This is generational stuff. This is what memes are made of. I mean, leaves the game coughing up blood, ribs all banged up. He gets in the ambulance. It's cooked. Oh, nights over for Christian Watson. Not so fast, my friend. Nearly 20 something minutes later comes back from the hospital out of the ambulance onto the field. This looked like something at a WWE. I mean, Monday night. This was unbelief. Did you have to take the ambulance back? Yeah, I was going to say like, wait, just for dramatic effect. I loved it. It was like, what did you think he had, Rob? Did he think he punctured along? I was thinking the same thing. I was like, he had a crack as ribs because I'll give you a situation when I was on Tampa and we were playing in LA against the Rams. I caught a pass, turned around, boom. I got drilled right in my ribs and I could barely breathe it. It was one of the most painful hits I've ever taken. So I go off the field. I go in the back. I get some X-rays and the X-rays were negative. It didn't show any breaks at that moment. I went back in the game, played about 10 more plays and then I just took myself out like, this is way too painful. There's something wrong with me. And then boom. I fly back home. I go get it. I go get a second opinion. I go get new X-rays. Actually, I get a CAT scan, I think at a corner hospital in Tampa and it showed I had six broken ribs. So in this case, it's the only thing I could think about is that they had to go use a machine that where the technology was better so they could read what the injury was at the hospital really quick. So that's the only situation I could think of in this instance. I mean, it literally reminded me of WWE. Unbelievable. I mean, Stonewall do something like that. Yes, bro. The glass smashing. Stone, pop another bag of it. And he made a big play out when he came back and get just after this. I mean, finished the night eight receptions over 13 yards. Christian Watson is a baller. It felt like he is a baller. It felt like Monday night, raw. He just needed the stone cold Steve Austin beers when he was coming out of the ambulance. Clash them together. You know, pour them all over his face and then just walk right back through the tunnel. That would have been the ultimate. And then he had an excuse as well. He could have been like, it's Halloween. I'm allowed to do that. Well, dramatic and a little dramatic player. And it also, I mean, this was the gift that he kept on giving. We got a great, we got a great quote tweet out of this meme wise. Some guy said, you know, Matt Collins would have come back with the hospital going on and his cheeks out the back. You know, Matt, he's showing up in the craziest fits. That one killed me. I might be, I might be meme of the year can't right there. What a great take from our man. Paul did back in the ambulance is chef's kiss. Chef's kiss for freaking your mad. Do you call that? Do you? Hey, do you call that Uber Lance or Uber? Umberlands. Yeah. Ambulance Uber combined. I know there was such a situation. That's crazy. Need an ambulance, but come back and play unreal. Christian Watson. What a tough guy. Yeah. That's that's a gronkey. Jules. I was shocked. I couldn't believe that. I'd never seen this situation in all the football. Like once you go to the hospital, first off, how close was a hospital to go there? Check. And then you come back. I know, but still just it was shocking. It was mind blowing. I never seen. I never seen this before my life. I liked it. I was all for I thought it was pretty intense. Me too. Yeah. Left it at 30 local time back on the field by 919. So he was in and out. Maybe maybe he needed the ambulance to get through the traffic. That's right. What the lights on the drive through. We're good. Oh my good. Jules. There's no traffic in Green Bay when the Green Bay Packers are playing everyone's at home watching that game. And that's why he got there and back so quick. No traffic at all. Perfect. Yeah. Good point. What a game they end up getting that win on Thursday night. Big win. Moving on. Down to the youth football ranks, the Peewee ranks about her man, Devon McCordy going viral this week. I should say coach, Devon McCordy out there in Chris Kill, New Jersey for the Cresk Hill Cougars. He showed up to practice for these kids in his full pads, everything. And after practice, he challenged him. How many of you guys can take me down? How many of you guys have taken me down? Did a little bull in the ring type drill here? What do you guys think of this? What are we doing, Dev? What are we doing? Oh my god. This was going everywhere on. It's awesome. It's awesome. Hey, Dev just, Dev just try to be cool to the kids, Julian. But let me tell you, this is one of the coolest things I've ever seen Devon do. Let me tell you that because at first, you know, the initial contact, he didn't go full speed, but then after that, he went full speed to see how many kids it takes to take him down. That was really cool. It was fun to watch. But also at the same time, it teaches these kids where they're at in life, you know, and where you got to get to to in life because if you want to tackle a pro football player, it shows that you need the work card that you're not there yet. That you need to get in the weight room that you need to get stronger. It elevates these kids plays, you know, these kids as a player as well to know that they got to work, you know, in order to get to the next level in order to get to the level where Devon McCordy played at. So I thought it was really cool, man, much respect to Devon for doing this. It was hilarious as well. And the Tigers went out there and got the win, too, by the way. They got the win. Got it. That had to be so cool to like be able to like say I like a half tackle against Devon McCordy. Yeah. Like one of like the 15 kids. Hey, man, Rob, how many of these kids want to take to take you down? I mean, probably the whole roster, all the kids, the whole kids on the sideline, their coaches, their parents, the babies as well, everyone, all 120 people on that field. And there's still scoring a tiny baby in the lane. Dev's looking lean. Yeah, I'm falling down in the end zone. They finally get me down. Yeah, I mean, I can tell you this. It looks like Devon's been, you know, missing his, you know, legs on leg day. He's been missing his quite. He's never had big legs. You never, he's fast guy. Yeah, very fast. Yeah, fast guys, I can tell you this fast guys don't have big legs. They don't have big legs at all. They're fast. Yeah. Yes, they're fast. Yeah, he's a fast guy. So you, you know, that's a cool video, but I was about way faster. It's a really cool video, man. I liked it a lot. I watched it about three times. That's great coaching. That's great. That's a player's coach right there. That's a player's coach. I love that. Speaking of bird legs, how about this one? I mean, this was a tough, tough, tough day in Tampa. I mean, this meme sums it up right here at half time of the Tampa Bay Atlanta game. Pennex completed passes to the box. Three pinnocks, completions to the Falcons, two Mayfield completions to anyone, zero. This was, this game was insane. This was unreal. I mean, holy smokes. How many completions does Bay have in last two weeks with two wins? Seven. He's got seven completions in the last two weeks. And they got two wins. Unbelievable. And they're back in the, they're back in the fight. Baker had the same amount of completions as a dead man. And I could tell you this as well, yeah, as a dead man. It's Halloween. That's allowed to be said. It's the day after Halloween. And also we should have really have taken the under on this one, Jack. I know, I'm pissed at myself because I was betting yesterday and I should have noticed that rain game, what the weather was going to be in Tampa Bay. If you look at these stats, you look at that meme, yeah, panic, completions to bucks three, panic, completions to Falcons to Mayfield completions to anyone's, you know, you would just think like how terrible are these quarterbacks playing? Like you just want to really put it into perception that a, you know, is there a hurricane going on in Tampa? And basically there was, you just saw the rain coming down. There was wind. There was an inch of water on the field. These are the stats that you're going to see when the conditions are, are, are present like that unbelievable. I mean, that was just, it reminded me of the wind game with Buffalo. Remember Mac only didn't have any complete completions that would, they didn't even throw the ball. No, it was the same exact vibe. He had a, he had a, I think Mac had about one or two completions at the end of the game to seal the deal. But same vibe, just different type of weather that was brought to the game. I am real disappointing, though. This real disappointing for Atlanta. It is. I thought they could go on the road and maybe give this thing done. But nah, I mean, nah, here in Bucky, though, he's out here. Game well, game well, they had over 200 yards of Russian. We'll give those guys some shine here later. I mean, this game might not have given us very many points, but it sure gave us some good memes. We got this one moving on. We also got a great one from the hood therapist. He said, I guess Michael pinnocks is to it for Halloween. Oh my God. Brutal to even to a catching stress. Yeah, Lee, unbelievable. And then last but certainly not least, another great one from our man, ghetto, Grant, who never misses, he never misses does he? He got a rock. No, he's shooting like, he misses once in a while, but he's shooting like 98%. Really? He's got a grog. He got a grog. He got a grog's ridiculous. Hey, it's a win over three, but it's a win. It's a win, baby. It's a win. A win is a win. It's a win. Man, I mean, that game was just crazy. 16. No, Baker over three zero yards. That line is hilarious. Shout out Tampa Bay, man. Don't write fence showed up. Vita Vaya came here to show groncajou's bump. And then all of a sudden, they Atlanta can't run the ball no more. God, man, he said, he said I got to take down the top of that zone. He kept out talking about that zone. And he sure did. Shake out a big win. I've a drink the cover, baby. And then I mean, Vira firstly takes up two of the Vita takes up three of the holes in the zone. So that's already a win right there. Definitely true. Oh, my God. massive. Oh, from, uh, from bad quarterback play to surprisingly good quarterback play. Last in the meme corner, we got our man Adam Rank said today, Gardner, Menshu is like the mick rib. He exists for a limited amount of time. But while he's here, it's spectacular. Spot on. You like the mick rib, Rob? I mean, I think this is, I think this is one of the most accurate Menshu descriptions ever, especially if you love the mick rib. It really is. I mean, Gardner Menshu, you've heard of him about, you know, when he was a quarterback on Jacksonville and just how fantastic he is, how, how just great of a personality that he has. Uh, and then he disappears and the boom. He shows up again and everyone's going crazy for him. I mean, it's, it's spectacular. It really is what he has done in this league. And what's so cool to is when you see backup quarterbacks in this situation, that just know how to take a advantage of these situations that come and give their team a huge spark. And it's not just Menshu as a mick rib. There's other ones like Fitzmagic, you know, uh, you know, Fitzmagic with the Buffalo bell. The lock was like a lock, you know, is Menshu still living in the van? I wonder, remember, he lived in a van. I don't remember that down by the river type vibes. Yeah. Oh, man, he looks like a guy that lives in a van, which I like wearing his shorts. He's just got like four or five more years. Uncle Rico backup quarterback win like that to get you a couple more years. All right. That bottom's some serious time. I'll buy you some wins. Shout out. Grads. Shout out, man. Grads. Grads to Menshu. That buys them some mick ribs for the next, you know, 10 years. It's time for our complete performance of the week presented by McDonald's quarter pounder meal. We're looking for a team or even a player that had a great all around day, got it done in multiple phases, just an all around complete game. Okay. Who had the most complete performance today, Rob? I'm gonna go with the Jacksonville Jaguars. Baby, they had a defensive touchdown. It had 104 on the grounds. The defense held in the 263 yards in just seven points. They had two touchdowns on the ground as well, running the ball. Three touchdowns in the air. I'm talking. This is one of the most complete performances. Not just, you know, this Sunday, but throughout the whole entire season this year and they beat Indy to top it off 42 to seven. That's how you dominate. That's how you win a game as a team where everyone contributes. Wow. That's definitely a complete performance. It's complete from a the Jacksonville complete team. They are a complete team weekend and week out. This episode of the Gronk and Jules show is brought to you by McDonald's. The quarter pounder with cheese meal with medium fries and a drink is now $8. You can't beat a good old QPC. That's bad. My go to McDonald's order for years as something of a burger expert myself. I can tell you. It's the perfect burger in my opinion. I still remember my first one on the way back from a high school football game. It was the first time I felt like a man. You never forget your first QPC. The two slices of cheese. I arranged in a star. So you get cheese in every bite. The two pickles are arranged side by side, but never touching. So there's pickle in every bite too. The 100% fresh beef cooked when you order. Did you know a bell sounds in the kitchen every time a QPC is ordered? That lets the grill master notes time to start making one fresh. I know where we are going to lunch after this. You read my mind. The quarter pounder with cheese meal with medium fries and a drink is now $8 for a limited time only at McDonald's for a limited time only prices and participation may vary. Prices may be higher in Hawaii, Alaska, and California and for delivery. Let's get into NASCAR. Let's go to the NASCAR off. Fast, fast, fast, fast. I think we can beat our time last time. We were under three minutes last time. Let's beat that thing this time. First up, guys, Panthers, Packers, Thursday night, Green Bay wins at 27 19 thoughts. Packers looking decent and also WWE match with all the everything. The ambulance. I can only remember WWE match. Yes, Panthers can't stop the run. Their defense is pretty terrible. And the Packers Jordan love at the quarterback position. He's legitimate two plus TDs in every single in every single game this year. He's elite. He's playing elite right now next round. Steelers 27 six Pittsburgh wins it. Man, best the Steelers have looked on offense since big bends like second to last year. It's true. I mean, this is, they've never ran the ball like this. Warren's a stud like this is a big It's a big win against the team that has been playing good defense in the Browns. Five and two team. Let's go. Let's go, baby. Eight Sacks by the Steelers, ridiculous. And if this team really wants to make an impact, you know, into the playoffs, you know, end of the season this year, DK Metcalf is going to have to pick it up. Other than that, this team is solid. Yeah, solid game, sweet, huge win, huge win. Moving on. Ravens, Bills, 36, 10. Buffalo takes it. Gosh, Lamar's on IR again, man, that team, a team's in trouble. The Ravens are in trouble. They were the second best odds to win the Super Bowl this year, the beginning of the season, not looking good. That's Bills, you got to do what you got to do to the third string quarterback and they won that game. Backspin. I mean, Josh gave him a couple early on, but man, let's go. Let's go, Ravens. The Ravens, the Ravens third string quarterback, he looked decent. The first two passes and then it just went downhill from there. It looked like that. He was going to actually compete and keep the Ravens in the game, but the Bills just took over. Josh Allen is just too powerful. James Cook had a great game, you know, I'm with running the ball. Oh, great game with running the ball. There we go. Foggins bucks 16. Nothing to win. A hurricane condition stuff. The Bucks showed that they have a run game, they showed that they punished that they can punish their opponents by just running the ball over the last two weeks or diesel right now. Bucky Irving and run defense. I mean, you beat the Falcons like that. I mean, the Falcons know how to run the ball. Amen. Huge win. Enough said, Colts, Jags, 42 to seven, Jacksonville beats them down. Yikes. It's a fire sale in Indianapolis, the Colts are who they are. They they're back to being the Colts from the hay days when we used to play them. Juliana, Jags, they're eight plus right now. They're they're primo gasoline. Really nice. Jags, oh, you know, they got some big wins. And I know this is, you know, a crappy Colts team that's on a fire sale. But like the Jags of they've been good for the last few years now. They got a good run defense, take it, run the ball. They got Trevor Lawrence is looking great with Liam Cohen. They got receivers, it looked like a good ball team. Thorn right. Last game. Last one. Rams. Chargers. The battle for LA. 24 to 9. Rams. Win it. I feel bad for the chargers. It's it's rough. They have no identity. It's rough stuff like the Rams didn't even play that great. They got guys missing too. They got problems on the offense side of the ball. But, you know, they they found a way to win the game and it wasn't as close as it was. But I just feel bad for the chargers. The chargers. When are you guys going to make a change on the offensive side of the ball? Oh. That's all I got. Oh. Mayan. And guys. It's bad. Oh, NASCAR, NASCAR, NASCAR. Guys, speaking of LA, we got the big game coming up. It is. Fans are becoming into town from everywhere, everywhere, everywhere. Guys, for the big game, can you can you give me a little bit of insight? You guys are no stranger to these. How jumping does a city get for those games? Thousands and thousands, hundreds of thousands of people come into this city for this big game. Everyone needs a place to stay. The teams have all the hotels like NFL takes up all the hotels. That's true. Yeah. And with that being said, if you're living in LA and you're looking to make a little extra money, fans are already starting to book places on Airbnb. Your spot might be worth more than you think. It might be worth more than you think. Hey, it's never too early. Only baby. Never too early to list that thing. All right, guys, what a week it's been. It's been on game balls. We got to get on game balls and we got to start with our favorite one. It's time for I am him, presented by Hems, where we picked a player from. Who was him this week, a player that stepped up to the table, a player that dominated, you know, a player when his number was called, made the play all game long. And being him is about confidence. It's about showing up ready and not second guessing yourself. It's not thinking that the line is skirmish. It's right when you get the ball, you're him with the ball in your hands. And every kid is looking up to you and you're performing and you're making the kids proud that are watching. I am him. Yeah. So, Jules, who was him this week? I got to go with Jalen Warren with Pittsburgh. Shout out to the offense line too. We've never seen Pittsburgh have a rusher like this since like bettis. Like he's the spark plug to that offense. When they get the run game going and it sets up their play action, Aaron can do more when the past game, when the run's going 143 yards, touchdown, huge, huge run in that game. Like that's, that's awesome. I got to give mine to him. I think he's him. Oh, he's him. That was pretty good. Jalen, what about you? He's him. I really like that. I'm going to go with Kurt Cousins because he's just not getting the credit that he deserves. He's the one that's keeping the him, the first pick of the draft, him, Fernando Mendoza on the bench. You know, Kurt Cousins stayed 19 for 26, 247 yards, one rush to D as well. That no one's really talking about all rush to D by Kurt Cousins. They put up 38 points. They got to win in New York. I think Kurt Cousins leads the NFL in touchdowns as well. He leads the NFL or he's tied in first place. Kurt Cousins is him and he showed it today with the stanky arm dance as well when he was out there. He brought it to the table. He's him.

It's got to be Dylan, Dylan lobby, Dylan lobby. And his hometown from Long Island goes out and houses a kick off, first kick off a return for a touchdown this year in the NFL. I mean, that was a big, big momentum changing play in front of his hometown crowd. That would, that's got to be an unbelievable day. Unbelievable. That's the Matthew Slater teamer of the week, darn right. On the flip side, guys, who's going to have a rough Monday incoming? Oh, man. Gotta be the cowboy's defense. Hey. Hey. Hey. I'm laughing over there already. Hey, Jack, am I allowed, am I allowed to pick the charges again? If you did not be mad at you, if you did not be picked. Oh my God. Yeah. All right. The reason, wait, the, before you go, Jules, the reason why I'm picking the charges again because they're the ones who are, are making it worse. They're allowing me to pick them again this week because they fall, oh, oh, and seven. And the reason why I'm allowed to pick them again, it's not like they competed. They just look like they haven't given up now, you know. If they were competing, it went down to the wire, you know, they threw a couple touchdown passes. It was going to overtime. It was a hard-fought game. You could put them on the rough Monday incoming. But once again, they figured it out. Now they finally looked like they're giving up this year. And I take it back. At the beginning of the show, I said there's, there's no team in the NFL that can't compete. Well, the L.A. Chargers are on the road to be the first team this year that, hey, if they're on your schedule, just check it off. It's a guaranteed win. They're on that way. So L.A. Chargers, rough Monday incoming once again. I'm sorry. Oh, man. Man, that's a little, that's the biggest surprise of the year to me. I thought I had so hot, so many high hopes for those chargers. For me, it's got to be the Ravens. The Lamar's on IR, they're back up, Snoop got hurt. He's got turf toe. They're going under their third quarterback and like, we know the importance of Lamar Jackson. He wins like 80% of the games he plays in, but he ain't going to be playing for a while. I'm worried about these Ravens because look, you got the, you got the Steelers who are playing pretty good football. They're five and two. You got the Browns who have a really good defense, you know, they ran into a wall today. The Steelers, but, you know, it's going to be a tough road. And you got Cincinnati who just can light you up. So like the very tough division, I'm worried about these Ravens. The great second highest Super Bowl odds at the start of the season. That's how crazy the National Football League is, man. Just one guy like that, it hasn't been just Lamar all season. They've had a lot of ups and downs, but like that was one of the things that they, they were looking forward to getting Lamar back, gives the team confidence. They've been talking about leadership problems in that locker room. And I got to find one another leader with that Lamar once again, darn right. It's going to be a rough Monday, really rough. It's time for iconic duo presented by Walmart where we We select the duo from this week whose performance was downright iconic. Rob, what makes a great duo? I mean, it's all about complimenting each other. Each piece has to bring something unique to the table. Just like us. I move the chains, you scored the touchdowns. Exactly. And speaking of duos, now you can get Walmart plus and Sam's Club plus together. Two memberships, one great price, two good. The Walmart plus free, same day delivery is perfect for game day needs. Okay. So who is our iconic duo of the day, Rob? I mean, we got a lot of tough choices here. You got Jameer Gibbs and James and William, who we talked about, you know, from the Detroit Lions. They both had great days. T Higgins and Jamar Chase. They ball. You know, both of them ball, I like run game, double digits and receptions. But when you have a run game combo, when you're mentally tough, when you put the whole entire team on your back with just two guys out of the backfield to get the win, that is an iconic duel of the day. And I'm talking about Bucky Irwin and Kenneth Gainwell from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers performing in the hurricane type weather today, down in Tampa, Irving 27 carries 170 yards, one touchdown, Gainwell 25 carries 140 yards. It's the first time in history to running backs to each have 25 carries and over 125 yards in a game. Now, that's an iconic duo if you ask me 50 rushes. That's iconic. It really is. And on top of that, this run game going for Tampa Bay, letting Baker Mayfield heal as well. So when he needs to throw the ball, he's 100% that's being iconic, that's being legendary. And Kenneth Gainwell, just hopping on the train as well to make this an iconic duo, that's respect. [MUSIC]
