I think I did know this.

And apparently, I'm in great company because JJWatt and TJWatt might be the Peloton guys after seeing these outputs they posted. What are the Watt's made of? And TJ beat them.

Tj beat them?

Tj was seven. So he was Eight, and somehow TJ got seven, especially for how big they are.

I don't even know how this is possible. They're big dudes. Yeah, no.

That's usually... This is like skinny guys with big old quads. This is mind-blowing to me. This dude just went out, got three sacs, then hopped on the Peloton and put out that type of performance.

Well, one thing for certain, Peloton is a perfect place for some good old fashioned sibling rivalry. That's right. Between the two of us and the Watts, we might just have to find out for real who's taking that top spot on the leaderboard.

I'm Matt Ford. And I'm Alice Levine. And we're the hosts of WNDYRU's podcast, British Scandal. Now, our latest series is big. I mean, huge. You could say the biggest scandal ever to happen on British soil. It's political, it's religious. It was an extreme act of defiance. We're talking about a next-level assassination attempt. Members of the Royal family, religious leaders, as well as a load of big names in society. And they very nearly succeeded. So close. We're going to be telling you the story of the gunpowder plot and how 13 men set about planning to blow up the Houses of Parliament.

The stakes were impossibly high.

There were rifts in the group, a load of swords, and drunk men swigging beer in hostelries. Which always ends badly. To find out the full story, follow British Scandal wherever you listen to podcasts or listen early and ad-free on Wondry Plus on Apple Podcasts or The WNDRI.

That fucking glare coming through that end zone in the afternoon is fucking ridiculous.

Gary Jones has asked about the possibility of putting up curtains to block out the sun at AT&T Stadium. He said, Well, where's the moon? I need to hear this quote. What the fuck? To understand what the fuck he just said. What the fuck is Terry talking about?

And we got some fun clips throughout the week that I'm sure you guys will laugh at because we're idiots. Jason, tell the people what us idiots are going to talk about today.

Well, all the idiots listening, we have a fantastic episode lined up for all of you. That's right. We're going to talk about the Chief's walk off blocked field goal. The equals blow out of the Cowboys. Again, nice. Sorry there, Brandon. And also get to my time out of the house in LA. Plus, we're going to hit the biggest story lines, of course, from across week 10 of the NFL. I think we got to start with something we usually start with first.

What's that?

It's not old.

It's not- It's not late. It's not- It's not a hand me down. It's not not new.

It's not not new. That's because it is new. It's new, new...

New News.

Hey, new news is brought to you by Quest, Expand your World.

Yes.

All right, New Heights Film Club. First item of new news, 92% has voted in the next movie, and the New Heights Film Club is Roadhouse.

Shut the fuck. That's right. We're doing the original, right?

Yeah, I'm not doing the new... I have not watched it yet, and I probably... Based on the reviews I've heard from others, not going to watch it. The original ones are so good, man. There's some movies that you just can't remake, and I think Roadhouse is... You can't redo Swayze.

You can't, dude. There's nobody around that can do Swayze.

Yeah, it was a tight race. I'm lying, it wasn't a tight race at all. Roadhouse almost got half of the votes. It got 41% of a four.

That's what we're talking about, 92% That's what I'm talking about.

It was a clear favorite. Let's be honest, I think of all these movies, Roadhouse is the most iconic, and that's why it probably won.

Predator is by far the most iconic.

More than Roadhouse, you think?

Oh, I'll guarantee. I think people I think the 92% of us were interested because Patrick Swayze. They were like, All right, which one has the hottest guy?

Which one has the hottest guy? Predator has got the hottest guy. You got Carl Weathers, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Jesse Ventura. Come on now. That's a lot of man.

There's no way. Oh, yeah. There's no way. None of them are Swayze.

Don't underestimate, too. Oh, my gosh. What's the other guy in Roadhouse? What's his name? I can't think of his name right now. The Cowboy. Awesome mustache. I get Sam Elliott. Thank you, Brandon. He fucking kills it. Roadhouse has definitely got more cult following than any of these films. But I think Bloodsport is by far the one that I preferred. But you win some, you lose some. My ability to sway votes has definitely gone downhill. It did not work again.

Because everyone knows your tactics now. You got to start flanking, Jason. You got to start flanking. Take ahead of the curve. Everybody's scheming you up, man.

There are also some 92 percenters who are confused in the comments about what blood sport is. This is fucking good. So I had to clear things up for them there, Trav.

I don't know if you saw this. Yeah, Jason cleared things up for them. You had a back and forth with Te Ronto, Jordan from Te Ronto. She said, What is this movie about, and you replied with Bloodsport, just the title, just right back at her. That's what it's about. And then she then said, I just voted Bloodsport, but I still don't know what it is. And you then replied again with, It's Bloodsport. That's what is. I thought that was very clever because that's exactly what it is. There's no other review or explanation you need to give. Once you see the movie, you will then tell everybody else exactly what it's about, and it's about Bloodsport.

I guess it's about the Kumate tournament and all that.

Yeah, but the tournament's about Bloodsport.

Yeah, exactly. At the end of the day, it's Bloodsport. It's about the power of friendship. The power of friendship?

Don't do this. All right, we're trying to-Let's not try and make a thematic huge thing out of bloodsport. This isn't the Brotherhood of Bloodsport. Okay, this is bloodsport. We will give everyone time to watch this movie, so we'll drop our review later this month. In the meantime, tomorrow, we are going to dip back into the Heights Hotline and answer some more of your burning relationship questions. I don't know if we're qualified.That's right, ladies and gentlemen, you make sure that you hit us with the best questions you got, because we are miracle makers when it comes to your relationship advice.

You guys have been watching Jumanji?

Oh, dude. It's actually a nice little code. Now, I just text her if she wants to watch Jumanji early in the day. Say, Hey, I'm going to be plain and It's one of our mind tricks.

Don't get stuck in the game, folks.

I texted Kylie, Do you watch Jumanji today, and she said, I'm drier than the Sahara Desert. And I was like, That movie takes place in the rainforest.

Jason has dethroned the Queen of Christmas, the amazing, the wonderful Mariah Carey.

Oh, buddy.

A Philly Special Christmas party. Maybe This Christmas by Philly Specials and Stevie Nicks is the number one Christmas song on the charts right now. The Duet with Stevie Nicks is officially the number one Christmas song, and Beat Out All I Want for Christmas is You by Mariah Carey. I mean, that song is as good as it gets when it comes to Christmas music. Jason, how does it feel to officially be the Queen of Christmas?

I've fought my whole life to be the Queen of Christmas, and the fact that we're finally there is just really special. I forget what the stat was. Somebody said, I think All I want for your Christmas is you. It's been the number one Christmas song.

Since 1994?

I don't know if it's since 1994, but it's been for 20 years. It's been nonstop, the number one Christmas song or something like that. Yeah, of course. I know we caught it early November. We'll see if it holds up throughout the rest of Christmas. We caught it on the Christmas downslide. Not too many people were listening to Christmas music, so we jumped in.

Snuck in there, yeah.

I get it. I'll take it when I can get it. That's pretty amazing. It was incredible to work with Stevie Nicks. Obviously, I'm still in awe of the fact that that actually happened.

Stevie.

This is really cool. There's no % chance any song that I am in should be streaming number one on any service in any genre.

Yeah, well, don't give yourself too much credit. Stevie Nicks.

That's exactly right.

Yes.

Good point.

No, man, that's some cool-ass shit, man. I can't wait for everything to drop. It drops the day after Thanksgiving?

So the song is out now. The single came out.

Yeah, the single came out with the album.

The album will be fully streamable, I think. I think it's the day after Thanksgiving.

Yeah, I think that's what I remember reading.

The album goes for sale, but it's already pre-saling. Pre-ordered. We got to ask Connor. Connor knows all the details. I don't know half of the details. I just have fun making the music. He knows how the release structure works. I'm an idiot. I just show up.

I get it.

It's coming out slowly. We got another single coming out this week with our friends from Mount Joy.

Nice.

Iconic Philly Band. That song's tremendous. So pretty excited to see how that does.

Hell, yeah.

I think we're going to be releasing this tomorrow, but I'm going to be putting on a concert before this Thursday night game with Mount Joy.

I'm sorry, what? You're going to do live music?

Dude, I'm performing the song that we recorded for the album, Live at the Link before the game starts with Mount Joy. And I feel, I don't know if this is the right to do. The Eagles are about to play a heated, the most important game of the year, they're playing the Washington Commanders. And me and Mount Joy are going to go in there before the game kicks off and perform a Christmas song because we want to help raise money for the album.

What game is this?

It's Eagles versus Washington, the Commanders. This week? This week. It's on Thursday. It's going to be the day after this.

It's a little too soon if you ask me. It's a little too soon if you ask me. But all right.

And see, initially, I was like, Yeah, let's just do something-It's Thursday.

Now, you're doing this in two days. Yes, dude.

Bro. Initially, we were like, We're just going to do something in the parking lot. It'll be fun. Just to get it on video to help promote it. And somehow it's turned into, We're full on, have a stage in the link in a part of it, and we're just going to be performing this song right before the most important game of the Eagle season to date takes place.So yeah.So.

You better make it epic.

Well, my voice is shot. I don't know if you can tell, so it's probably going to be...

You just always have a raspy voice, man. Just go ahead, just get some honey. A little throat coat.

You ever heard a throat coat?

Nope.

It's a type of tea.

It's not. Whisky. Get some whiskey tea. Don't bother with that shit. You're right. Get some whiskey and some honey.

Yeah.

You know what I'm saying?

Yep.

You know what to do.

How do you know so much about vocal soothing?

I read up on it.

Big reader. Big Wikipedia guy. Yeah.

That does it for a new news brought to you by MetaQuest. Expand your world and disappear in reality.

Yes.

Fan mentions of the week. Let's shout out King James. Yeah. After our Freddie Freeman episode, he explained why he spelled Freddie's name wrong. What did he say? I thought it was pretty clever. Probably not why he did, but it's a nice little excuse. It's a good dog ate my homework. Excuse right here. Freddie, my bad man. You was the boogie man out there, so I just thought Mr. Kruger, like Freddy Kruger. Yep, the boogie man himself. It's a good one. Nice. And he was. He was haunting the Yanks. Yeah, that was pretty damn good.

Always love a good King James shout out. Yeah, he was pretty much like Freddy Kruger out there for the Yankees. No doubt about it.

Ain't that the truth? Actually, if you missed that Freddie Freeman episode, make sure you check it out, man. Freddie is an unbelievable guy. He's got a beautiful story with his family, both his father and his kids, and his wife, and just what they've all had to go through, and just how he got to where he is in life, man. It's so cool to hear what fuels him and what makes him great, man, especially after winning his Second World Series. So check that out.

In particular, you cannot listen to that episode or watch Freddie and not just have the biggest smile on your face. That dude smile. That's one of the greatest smiles I've ever seen. He does, man. It is outrageous. It's infectious. It's infectious. It is. We had a fucking blast. Make sure you check that episode out.

Let's move on to a little bit of that bold topics to wrap up Week 10 in the NFL. Starting with the Kansas City Chiefs. How about those? Chiefs. Chiefs, 16. Broncos, 14. Man, that was a crazy... I was watching this game, actually, at Big Deans down in Venice Beach, which is a New York Giants bar, which was embarrassing for them right after losing to the Panthers. But the whole bar was absolutely losing it with this one. You guys trail the entire game up until the fourth quarter, which in typical fashion, you guys then take the lead. And it comes down to, I mean, what is this? A 35-yard field goal kick. I mean, probably the most electric way to end a game. I used to think like, Hale Mary or like a TD walk off, touch down. I don't think there's anything more electric than blocking a kick to win a game. The place just erupted.

I don't think I had been a part of the stadium where it went fucking apes.

Dude, I can I can't really imagine.

It got me to the point where my eyes, the emotion and everything, my eyes started watering, and I was getting goosebumps. I'm like, This is insane how we just got through here with a win.

And we were talking, right when it led up, the whole bar where we were at had pretty much, Okay, well, the Chiefs just lost their first game. The Broncos did a great job. They did what you need to do to beat the Chiefs. Don't give the ball back to Pam Holt. Whatever you do, do not give it back. Milked the clock. They got it down to one second.

Yeah.

Tj, who was the bartender, was like, I don't know, man, they still got to make the kick. And I literally was like, You know what? There have been a lot of blocks this year. I swear to God.

That's insane. To talk about it like that.

I didn't think it was about to happen, but I was like, You know what? It could.

I mean, I guess. Kareem was on the sidelines screaming, We're about to block this punt. In my head, I'm just like, It's only one loss, Travis.

You're like, It's not a pun, Kareem.

I was already in my head. No, I mean, my bad. You blocked this kick. It was my bad. He was saying he was going to block this kick, but I was in my head from not scoring a shutdown on the drive right before that and forcing them to score a shutdown instead of kick a field goal for the win.

I know exactly what player... You looked like you just couldn't quite get your footing to jump. It was like an awkward timing.

It was that one. It was a great ball by Pat. I was fading, so I didn't have my feet under me to be able to just spring up. Two plays or three plays before that, I actually got a first down, but they went cover zero, and all I had to do was make one guy miss, and he wrapped my shoes up.

That's the one you're more talking about? Yeah.

I think I've put that much pressure on myself or that much accountability on myself to make that guy miss and be that difference maker.

I hear you.

It's just, for whatever reason, it was a good tackle by six, and I hate myself for it. I hate that everybody's looking at Pat for... He overthrew me on that last play. It was a great ball. I just didn't have my feet under me to go up I didn't get it. The ball didn't even... It's not even like it went over the cross-bars. It was a very catchable ball, if I were to just say.

It was right on the... I think if you would have had foot in, you definitely could have jumped up and got it, but you just didn't. Yeah, 100%. But either way, this is why you have teammates.

This is it. I was in the tank, and these guys, fucking, yet again, when I do something stupid or I fuck up, my guys are right there to pick me up. It was awesome to see a guy like Leo Chanel be the difference maker.

Exactly. That's I was about to say, we talk about teammates. The way you talk about him and the way it feels like all the Kansas City Chiefs talk about this guy, he is the ultimate teammate. He does so many things. You guys will put him at fullback. He plays D-line, he plays linebacker. He does all these things for the Chiefs. And on top of that, he blocks kicks to win games.

Ain't that the truth?

Let's talk about this a little bit. Let's rewind this, Brandon, if we can. Get it back to the start here. So 54, that position is called tight end on field goal. And I'm just letting you know this right now, people.

It is the worst position. It is arguably the hardest position on any special team's unit. This guy is being taught to stab the guy that is in the gap inside of him, stab the guy that is in the gap outside of him, inside of him and outside of him. And then on top of that, take a fucking guy right down the center.

An NFL player. And you're not even allowed to touch it with your hands.

You just have to eat it. You're just here, and they tell you to die Die slow. That's the coaching. That is literally the coaching on it is like, listen- We know you're going to get your ass beat. You're going to get your ass beat. All right? We put our toughest guy in there. We just need you to be stout for two seconds or however long it takes for them to snap the ball and kick it. We just need you to have that two-second strain to finish. And that's why they say, Die slow, because you typically end up on your ass every fucking time.

Every time they put this rush where there's three guys over top of you, you are going... Three people pushing on you, you're going to fall. Just don't fall too fast, essentially. And he felt. I'm not going to lie. I don't even... Look at where his butt is. You got to get your butt up a little bit more than that.

We need more flat back. We need more flat back. Exactly.

We're not worried about our head being down or anything. You got to get a job done. Yeah.

We got to bring Newton's lawn to this thing and start breaking up the protractor.

We used to say this guy used to be... We used to say he's the most unselfish player on the team. Before, when there was a kickoff return and a wedge wedge unit, wedge unit and this guy. But now that there's no more wedge unit, this guy takes a cake. You're going to get killed.

He gets the award, yeah.

And what's unique about this, too, is I don't know if we still do this, to be honest with you, because I haven't been in the field goal meetings in a while. But typically, the fieldside tight-end is a bigger body guy that dies slower because the way the kick has to go on the right hash, it's going to go to the left. So teams will usually put their bigger, better tight end to the field. A lot of times, they won't play sides. It looked like Chicago just played these guys on sides. They didn't really swap them. I know Jordan Malata, when he used to do this, we used to put Jordan Malata to the field. When Bo Allen used to do this, he was really good at it. We would put him to the field because we knew that the rush, if they were going to get there, had to come from that angle on a hash.

Which also makes it very interesting. And I don't want to call anybody out. I think it's already been noticed that 5-4 for Denver, I'm not sure of his name, but he was getting pointed out in the special teams film that, Hey, this guy isn't necessarily dying as slow as you would hope.

Of course, yeah.

You would hope that you fix that before you get put in a situation like this. And ironically, the play before this, the offense did a play where they snapped the ball and they run the ball over to the right hash and take a knee.

Yeah, they center it.

They centered it. So now the kick has to go over the left side of the offensive line or the field goal block or the field goal unit. That's right where the 5-4 is. It matched up perfectly for us to really give us confidence that we could go and get it. But at the end of the day, everything goes down to making the play And you see guys like Leo Chanel and George Carloftis who's right here shooting. What is that? The sea gap as well, trying to get in there, bone them down.

They're all going through that gap.

Everyone's going right through that gap. You could tell it was an effort in something that Coach Tobe, one of the best special teams coordinators of the NFL's history, he had dialed in on that one to make sure our guys knew that that was a weak point or something that we could take advantage of.

And for those of you wondering why you would put the ball in the right hash. A lot of the times, kickers actually don't want the ball in the middle of the field. They prefer having an angle on the kick, and they'll ask the kicker, Hey, do you want this on the right hash or the left hash? When they have enough time like this in a crucial moment, they're going to try to make it as easy or put it in a position where the kicker has as much confidence as possible. So they put it on the right hash, unknowingly making it more vulnerable to being blocked because of where the pressure was coming the majority of the game. And I don't want to Listen, I'm going to give Alex all the credit in the world. That position sucks.

It's the worst. It is so hard. It's the worst. It's so easy for us to say, Why isn't he leaning forward?

Well, the problem is once you start leaning, then they're jetting the other gaps.

Then they start jumping through gaps.

It's a position that is really hard to be right on. You have to have great balance. It was not executed well for him, obviously, on that play. But part of it's also just like, he didn't get his foot down, which would have helped him. But what an amazing effort and just outstanding play from Karloftis and from Leo Chanel. Was that Chris Jones, who was also in on that on the inside?

Mike Panell.

Mike Panell.

Jack Cochrane getting in there. Everybody was in that thing.

Yeah, it was an insane effort on a play that's like, at that point, you can't help but think a little bit like, God, dang, man, this is damn near games over, almost.

I told you, I was in the fucking tank.

Yeah. I mean, Especially on the sideline, when you can't make a difference, you're like, Come on, guys, please. Somebody, please make a play. But you know the chances that that happens is so small. I think couldn't happen to a better guy, it seems like, in Leo Chanel. Loved everything that happened after the game. So yeah, couldn't happen to a better teammate, it seems. Everybody pumping up John Cina here. John Cina.

He's like the strength. When he comes out of the tunnel next, they got to hit him with the John Cina.

It's got to be for now on. Yes. Dude, he's like the strength of a D-He's my fucking dog, man. He's like the strength of a D-lineman, but he plays the linebacker position. You don't want to be the guy on the end when he's working out.

Bro, he made my training camp living hell going against him, man. I loved every bit of it, too. He's just such a good teammate, accountable every single day, and you just love to see a guy have success like that, knowing how much he fucking works, man.

Yeah. What did he do to make it hard for you?

He's long arms. He gets his hands on you in terms of reroutes. Spags was playing some defensive stuff that he knew we were going to play some good tight ends this year, so he wanted to have some packages in to slow down the tight end off the ball. And Leo was the guy that fucking just making my day hell the third day in practice and just fucking standing in front of me and just making sure that I don't get into my route.

Can't get right into your route, throw the timing off.

And then on top of that, blocking him is just one of hardest things because his arms are so long and he plays with such good leverage, man.

Yeah, he's got good ankle flexion. It's always a bummer. Mike Pennell also said, Leo, before the play, he said that he was going to do it, so we all had faith in each other. He was unwavering faith in his ability, so we're all behind him. We call him the beast. He is the beast. Mahomes calls him John Senna. Everybody else calls him the beast. This guy's got some great nicknames.

Dude, do you know his nickname from college?

What's his nickname from college?

Death Row.

Death Row? Death Row. Death Row Records? Why is he Death Row?

Dude, watch how he plays. You'll get it.

All right.

My favorite clip ever, though.

What?

When he got drafted, they asked Leo Chanel What are you going to bring to Kansas City? And he looked at that reporter, Violence and Physicality.

Wow. That's a good answer. That's a football guy answer right there.

Can somebody please pull up that video? Can you find that video? I think it was Violence and Physicality. I forget what it was. Leo, what do you bring to the table for the kingdom? Violence and Physicality, man.

I am addicted to hidden people. I love it. I can't get enough.

Let's fucking go. I'm addicted to hidden people.

The whole crowd just erupts.

You just got someone that loves to assault people for a living. I will take full advantage of being able to assault the man in front of me.

Leo, can you give us a nuanced answer as to why you are going to be a great pick for the Kansas? Violence and Physical.

That reminds me.

That reminds me.

It's so good, dude.

That reminds me so much of that Marshawn Lynch interview.

Like his high school interview?

No, he's doing an interview, and the reporter is asking him questions. He's like, There's not too many people that can take you running through somebody's face over and over.

Over and over.

Over and over and over and over and over again. The guy said, the reporter says, Is there some type of... I forget. He tried to have some quick smart comeback where it's like, Oh, is there something symbolic in that? And he said, Run through a motherfucking face.

I mean, my son is gold, man. God damn, I would have loved to fucking play with that guy.

Yeah, the field goal attempt almost didn't happen. It was reported on Pro Football Talk that there was talk among the Chiefs defense of possibly letting the Broncos score at the end as a strategy to get the ball back. And I'll explain this. Every team has a play in their playbook on defense. When you're out of timeouts, there's no way for you to stop the clock anymore. You'll actually let the team score just so you get an opportunity to get the ball back.

You have to be within a score, though.

It's a last-stitch effort. It usually happens with seconds, like you're under a minute on the play clock, and you're like, Man, they're going to get a field goal. We can't stop the clock anymore. Let's just let them score a countdown, because then maybe we can somehow get in the end zone if we get the ball back. And I was actually in that same bar wondering if you guys were going to do that. So it's interesting to know that you guys were also thinking about it because it was in that... This was the situation where it's like we're in... I don't know what you guys call it. I don't even want to say what you guys call it because I don't know if that will tip it off.

Just let them score mode. Let them score mode.

But you don't want to make it too easy. We actually tried it on you guys very unconvincingly, and you guys took a kneel down and didn't score. Unfortunately, we would have hoped you would have scored.

This is a situation where sometimes you'll actually see the defense trying to carry a guy in, like carry a tackle. Try and make a tackle, carry him into the end zone. You know what? Seriously. And so if you ever see that at the end of a game- Sometimes it requires a little bit of acting ability.

You don't want to just make it obvious you're letting him score. You want to actually miss a tackle on purpose. But either way, Spags have poorly said, No, we're not doing that. We're going to make this stop and force him to make the kick. Interesting. I mean, listen.

And Spags, we trust, baby.

Thoughts on the strategy. It worked. I don't know what I'm saying.

In Spags, we trust, baby. Yeah, right?

In retrospect, it's absolutely bonkers that you guys blocked this kick. Like I said before, it is probably the most electric way to end a game on a block.Dude.

It was-The double thump to end it.

That is absolutely freaking crazy.

Especially from 35 yards out. It's one thing if it's from fucking deep, man.

Exactly. This is like a... I don't know what the... It was 92%?

It was a build-up. It was a build-up.

It was probably a 92 % chance that the field goal was going in.

It might even be higher than that. The fact that it was building up from the two-minute because we used just about all our time. I think we had one left, but we used all our timeouts, tried to set it up so that we would have time left, and they get the big first down on the third down play. That gets them into field goal range, and now they keep just slowly taking off the clock, slowly taking off the clock. So it's like building up. It's like, Fuck, how do we let them get to this point, man? Now it's like the chances are slim, and then and the fucking top just fucking pops off, and just the entire stadium just goes nuts. It was insane, man. Yeah, I can only imagine. You don't have too many regular season games that get the stadium rocking like that, man. For sure. But Little Chief's Broncos always gets it going.

Well, another thing that got it rocking on social media after the game, the Chanel Jersey incident.

My God, Leo, man.

This was pretty cool. Once Coach Reid finished his postgame remarks, he let Chanel break down the team's final huddle, a first-time moment for him in his career. A few minutes later before his postgame- He was definitely broke down the huddle.

I don't know who's writing this.

I don't know, but I'm just going to read it because I don't know anything. A few minutes later, before his postgame shower, Chanel asked Kelsey for something he's wanted since his rookie season. Just before Chanel left the locker room, Kelsey, still shirtless, gave his teammate the memento he wanted, his red, game-worn '87 jersey with his signature and a short message of Chanel written in black Sharpie on the white number seven. And Chanel said, I've been waiting for the right time, smiling. I felt I earned it. That's pretty awesome, man.

He earned it just by fucking being a good teammate. He's been earned it, right?

Yeah.

And this is actually my It's my fault. Of course, it's my fault. He mentioned that he wanted it since his rookie year. He came up to me and asked me before, and I was like, Dude, fuck you. No problem, man. I'll write this thing out to you in a heartbeat. And sure enough, I forget to do it that day. And two years later, I'm sitting here, he comes up to me and calls me out. He's like, You still owe me a jersey. I'm like, Goddamn, today's the day you're getting it, brother.

This is how you know we're brothers.

So he's got not only the game-winning block kick jersey. I put the date on it. I told him how much I appreciate him being a teammate and a Super Bowl champion with me.

Oh, that's awesome.

Ironically, it was the day I became the leading reception. Oh, my gosh. Reception. Yeah. Well, did you-Touchdown reception leader.

You overtook it or you tied Tony?

I can't remember which one was. I think I might have tied him.

I think you tied Tony. Yeah.

Which I tied him on that day. So I I made sure to write that down there on him.

That's awesome. On the Jersey phone. That's a legendary.

When I told that to him, he was sitting there like, What? No, I can't. I'm like, It's in good hands. It's yours, brother.

Dude, that's crazy. Yeah, this is how you know we're brothers. I think I owe 15 guys from the League of Jersey.

Oh, a million. I think I still owe my guy Hunter Henry one, man. Fuck.

I don't know how your jersey is after games. When I tried to sign the jersey after games- Soaking what?

It all runs.

And it bleeds. It never is It's part of it. That's a part of it. That's a part of the magic of it? That's a part of it, yeah.

That's how you know. It's another part of the... That thing was worn, and it was sweated on, and there was blood shed.

What do we think was the better postgame gift to Leo? The jersey from you or a little cheeseburger?

To Andy, treating him to a cheeseburger? Hell, yeah. Shit, the entire cheese kingdom treats him to meals for the rest of his life, I bet you. I would say the cheeseburger from Andy Reid is all time It's an all-time great gif.

I do want to say we're pumping up the end of this game in Leo. I do got to give the Broncos credit.I mean, they played fantastic.Are.

You kidding me, man? Their defense has been good.

Their defense has been great all season long. They came off of a little bit of a rough one the week before, but they have been really good.

Their front seven flies around. They do a great job of mixing up blitzes and just throwing guys at you left and right and playing fast. 5-5, their middle line Their backer flies the fuck around. 40, their backers are super athletic, very in-tuned, very well-coached.

Good instincts. Vance Joseph has got those guys playing really good.

Vance Joseph, I told him afterwards, Man, it's an honor going up against you, man, because I know it's one of the biggest challenges in the league, man. Who would have thought one of the best defenses in the league got a white corner?

There's an outside corner?

Yeah. 21. Starter. He hides it, though. He wears long sleeves. He hides it. Andy, I think he wears the turtle neck, too. That's smart. He hides it, yeah.

Don't let him see the skin. He hides it. Don't let him see the skin. Which one's the white guy again? I can't tell.

It's like camouflage.

That's funny. Oh, man.

No, man. Seriously, he can play. Everybody over there, their safety's got covered by a linebacker for a play. They throw different looks at you. And Coach Payton. Yeah, of course. Sean Payton has got those guys motivated and playing great ball on the offensive side, too. Bo Nicks. Holy shit. That guy was fucking-How about that?ripping it out there yesterday.

Especially in the first half.

Playing some good fucking football, man.

Well, the Broncos, we just talked about it. The Broncos did hold you guys. The three or four field goes in the red zone. They were very stingy down there in particular, but they did let up one. And that was to the big Yeti himself. We talked about it a second ago, where you tied Tony Gonzales for the most touch downs in Chief's franchise history. Let's see this clip. And this was a fourth down, like ballsy. It was early in the game. Was it 3:14? I think it was second quarter, yeah. What is this route called?

It's called to just get the fuck open and get your eyes around because you're wide-ass open. This is the one time the Bronkers got a little botched up. We had guys going crossing, going left and right, a guy going vertical. Sometimes that just softens up the defense enough to... If the guy underneath just gets his eyes back, it's a countdown.

It's interesting to me is like, so you guys are in this bunch formation, and a lot of times you'll see teams throw these quick screens and do these little follows into the end zone with the guy. But you guys do this. It's almost like a delayed follow, where they go out, they run their crossers, and you act like you're going out and then come right back where you just were. Does that make sense at all?

I don't know. No, I mean, you're right. What it does is it puts a team that- Because they're all bandjoing this.

They're trying to figure out, who am I taking?

They're playing a defense that's very similar to what you would play in the field. They box the bunch. Where they put five guys, literally like a box. They put the corner high outside, the safety right over top, and he plays everything inside, the corner plays everything outside. The underneath nickel or the wheelbacker then plays the flat while the Mike sits in the inside and takes any short crossers. Well, this formation, we scored two touch downs with D-Hop on the backside, so the Mike flies left to try and take away the inside throw to D-Hop.

He's got to take the first crosser.

Yeah. And then Justin Ross does a great job of taking off the top. And at that point, there's a lot of space underneath for me to work. And Pat was right on time.

That outside defender, he's got to respect you running to the flat. So when you come and follow that guy who takes the inside defender, there's nobody left to take you. I thought it was great. It was a great design.

Yeah. And my guy, no gray's wide-ass open here, too. So it was literally picker poison by the pad right here.

Either way, awesome play on fourth down. Chief's defense still balling out. I know they got led up a little bit early. They gave up some leakage late on that last drive.

They only gave up 16 points if they made that field goal, 19 points as an offense with a guy like Pat Mahomes back there, Coach Reid dialing up plays. We have the pieces to put up fucking points, man, and it is getting a little frustrating, but Chiefs Kingdom, stick with us, baby. We're going to start putting fucking points up, and we're going to do it in an old Chiefs fashion. We're finding ways to win, which is always a good thing, and we're learning, and we're growing, and we're definitely rolling with the punches in terms of how teams are playing us, and we're growing with that. I think that Coach Nagui, Coach Reid, Coach Heck, the offensive staff that's really creating these game plans, they're putting us in great positions to have success. But it takes It takes all 11, man. It takes all 11. It takes the tight ends to be having their feet underneath them so we score touch downs instead of field goals. It takes everybody up front to be on the same page so that we're picking up blitzes. It takes everybody running their route to the discipline that Coach Reid teaches it so that guys get open faster, and it's a clearer picture for Pat.

Everybody's got to do their fucking job every single play. And I know I haven't done it. I got to make sure that as a leader on I'm doing everything I can to help this team and to make this thing go.

Yeah, love it. Lebron's head of the game. No other team in NFL history has won nine straight games in which they trailed in the second half, regular and postseason. You guys have trailed in all nine games? Is that what that stand is saying? That's not correct.

This is true, Jason.

You're saying you guys have trailed in all of your nine less?

Every fucking game.

Wow.

In the second half.

That's fucking mind-blowing, actually. That's not a LeBron That's pretty fucking crazy.

It's not where you want to be as an offense, Jason. I know this, and like I said, it's frustrating. It is frustrating knowing that we're not scoring enough points right now. It's what you go to work for, baby. You got enough pride. If you get it fixed, you're going to fucking get it fixed. I got my mindset on that.

Well, next week, you guys have an opportunity to get it fixed. You head back to Buffalo. How about this to take on Bill's Mafia? Yeah. Last time you were in Buffalo, I was there, and it was a fun evening for everyone involved.

Unless you're the Bills.

Yeah, correct. Unless you're Bills Mafia, in which case, not the best end of the season for those guys, but they are rolling right now. Bills are looking good.

Josh Allen- He is playing fucking lights out right now.

He's got his best TD to interception ratio in his whole career. Joe braided. Joe braided is really taking the offense to another level, it feels like.

I think Josh is taking it up another level, too. To himself? Yeah. I think he's doing an unbelievable job of taking care of the ball, mixing in when he's going to be the bulldozer that he is, and then mixing up when he wants to run around guys. He's playing great football. When you get a juggernaut like him on the offensive side, you got to fucking put up points, man. So now more than ever, are we going to need to fucking score touch downs?

Yes.

And I'm going to be locked in this week to try and make sure I'm accountable for my guys.

Can't wait to watch this one. I will not be shirtless this time around. I'll be watching this one from some comfortable area.

Let's talk about a little bit of the birds out in LA.

Yeah, baby.

Yeah, we'll talk about the birds and then get into your LA trip after this one. Eagles 34, Cowboys 6. Jason, initial thoughts on the game, the fucking blowout.

The initial thoughts are that Dallas is just really bad right now.

Yeah, the fighting Dallas is. And the other eagles are playing great football. Yeah.

I mean, listen, I know Dallas isn't good right now, but this is what you're supposed to do against bad teams. You're supposed to beat them 34 to 6. Yeah. Philadelphia has really settled into who they are. It seems like they're playing much better. We've all known that they've had the players to get it done. They have great talent on both sides of the ball. They're really starting to gel as units and play as a team. And I think that that's the thing that's been really fun to watch the last couple of weeks. They're figuring out their identity on offense, and they're starting to really play to their strengths as a unit. And defensively, they've had a couple of bad games. But outside of that, they've been good. They've been really good. And as of late, the defensive line has picked it up. They're playing fantastic. I mean, obviously, everybody's criticizing the pass rush. When you play with a lead, the pass rush looks a lot better. You put them in third and long situations. Keep them, stay ahead of the sticks, you're going to get good opportunities to rush the passer. And I think that the Eagles right are playing very, very well.

It also helps me get five turnovers.

Yeah, how about that? When the turnover battle, baby, the fucking win percentage skyrockets. Eagles now in first place in the NFC East with a fifth straight win, and Bird get their first win in Dallas since 2017. As Jason remembers. Quick stats from the game. Jalen went 14 of 20 for 202 yards in a tutty. He's just playing so... He has the answers to the test, man. It seems like he's He's ahead of the curve, and it's fun watching him ball out right now because he's flawless right now. His throws are right on point. Everything downfield seems to be in sync. A. J. Brown had five catches for 109. A. J. Brown is doing his That damn thing, as he always does. Forced five, cowboy turnovers, one interception, and four fumbles. Guys are fucking punching the ball. And the Eagles pulled starters early in the fourth quarter. How about that?

Yeah, Jalen is playing really good right now. I mean, And I know the thing that he's really done since the buy is he's taking care of the football. He's being very smart. I know he had the one interception to Diggs in the end zone, where Diggs really slupped off of his responsibility, made a good play. And then he had the fumble, where I don't know what you do. Michael Parsons came around on a Te and was on top of him before he really had time to react. But he's been very smart with the football, but also still taking chances. It's hard to navigate that, how do I be aggressive and allow my guys to go make plays like A. J. Brown, but also do that in a way that is smart and we're not putting the ball at risk. I think that he's been really good. It's clear that him and Kelen have really started to build a chemistry as to what this offense is now. It looks like it has an identity. Hell, yeah. They've turned into... They lean on Saquon. They allow it. They run the football. They're doing the play actions. They're doing a little bit more under-center stuff, which lends yourself to some different play actions that you can do from the gun.

They've done some really good things the last three or four weeks. It's fun to watch right now. It's a lot of fun to watch.

Hell, yeah. Well, I don't get this next quote, but the biggest takeaway from the game, Jerry Jones is still at war with the Sun.

Yeah. There was a moment in the game, CeeDee Lamb running across the end zone, had a chance to have a wide open shutdown and could not see the ball.

I'm not going to lie. Playing in that stadium, I've fucking had that problem before. That fucking glare coming that end zone in the afternoon is fucking ridiculous. Absolutely ridiculous. It's like the glass makes it fucking spread more. It's like the sun is bigger and brighter than it's ever fucking been. I get it, but obviously, you try not to let those things be an excuse. But holy shit, man. I mean, I get it. I understand where he's coming from here.

Yeah. I mean, there's some pictures right here. I mean, it is crazy how aggressive that sun is at that time of the day coming through that window. You'd think they put up like shades or something, but alas. Look at that, dude.

What the fuck? Why the fuck is it that bright?

The funny thing is, I think I saw somewhere, and I don't know if this is true or not, but I saw it on the internet, so I'm going to assume it's true, like everybody else does. Of course. I think they They actually have shades because they do concerts in there, and singers have said that it bothers them. So they have shades. It's an option that they could legitimately just put the shades down, and they just don't do it. Might have to ask.

Might I have to ask somebody that. Ceedee Lamb, postgame comments on the sun at AT&T Stadium. I couldn't see the ball. I couldn't see the ball at all.

The sun.

Yeah. All right. Nice. Is he in favor A lever of curtains? Probably. Yes. 1,000 % he is. Did you talk to Jerry Jones about that, Lamb? I mean, you all doing my job right now. He'll hear it.

I think Jerry is going to get it. There might be shade next game. Yeah.

I mean, knowing that, maybe in the fourth quarter, you make the other team in an afternoon game, have to deal with that. You know what I mean? Have to look into the sun.

See, Jerry Jones was asked about the possibility of putting up curtains to block out the sun at AT&T Stadium. He Well, let's tear the damn stadium down and build another one. Are you kidding me? I'm saying the world knows where the sun is. You get to know that almost a year in advance, someone asked me about the sun. What about the sun? Where's the moon? I need to hear this quote. What the fuck is Terry talking about? To understand what the fuck he just said. What the fuck is Terry talking about?

Listen, I hear him on You know where the sun is, dude.

The world knows where the sun is. Yeah, and so do architects and people that build stadiums. Usually, you try to avoid the fact that the sun might be directly in your receiver's eyes.

Dude, whatever it is. At Arrowhead, there is a time-Is there a recording of this?

I want to hear how Jerry says this. I can't repeat this and say it with the right inflection.

There is 100 % a time at Arrowhead Stadium where it's an afternoon game, and typically it has to be a noon game. The sun's already going down by four o'clock and getting underneath the stadium at this point in the year. But there is a time, if there is a noon game that in the first and second quarter, maybe even peaking into the third quarter, that you're going to get that sun coming across the field. So it's like if you have a hitch, it doesn't necessarily go downfield or how this is coming through the end zone in Dallas. You don't catch it that way. But you put the stadium so that- Yeah.

Have it going across the stadium. Don't have it so that you're going to be looking right back at where the ball is going to be coming from 90% of the time.

But it's going to look beautiful when the sun just glares through there in the afternoon. And it does look beautiful. I do love playing in Cowboy Stadium when that's happening. It makes it feel really cool. It is cool. Until you miss a touch down. Knowing that, we got to fucking block that thing out. I mean, have we played outfield before?

I guess in Jerry's defense, you would think the Cowboys would know this is an issue, and they could use it to their advantage, but I don't know.

Where's the moon?

Where's the moon? The old moon got in the way, Coach. Said no one ever. They're going to be a solar eclipse one night, and Jerry's going to I don't know. I think that this is one of those Jerryisms, where you got to hear him saying it for it to make sense.

Well, Jerry doubled down on his sun theory Tuesday saying, AT&T Stadium was built as an indoor stadium with an outdoor feel. Okay? Yep. People appreciate that stuff.

They do.

I do like an indoor outdoor stadium. I don't want to adjust the stadium for one reason. It's an advantage for us.

Okay.

The stadium has been an advantage for the Cowboys. The team knows where the sun is during the game, and it won't change.

He's got a point. The Cowboys have been very good at home. We had that stat up earlier. The Eagles haven't beaten them since 2017. I think it's pretty apparent the Eagles have had better teams than the Cowboys, and we have struggled down there. It's a difficult place to play for a multiplicity of factors. I've never noticed the sun as much, but I'm also not catching that many balls, so maybe there's something there. I don't know. That's my thing. If you know where the Sun's at, you can try and avoid that, I guess, or maybe wear a 10 advisor. I don't know.

Lebron's stat of the game, Jalen Hertz is the third player in NFL history with 75 passing touchdowns and 50 rushing touchdowns. So yeah, that's a LeBron stat. Not bad. That's both equally as impressive as it is pointless, because nobody cares about being the third player. Everyone wants to be the one player.

As we know, the Cowboys are struggling right now. They're in a freefall. I'll actually be in Dallas Monday night, and I'll get to see this sun, moon stuff firsthand and be able to offer my perspective potentially afterwards. I don't think it'll be any- Oh, yeah.

Let's see if Jason can catch an over route in the sun.

That's a good idea. That's a great idea. Let's see it, dude. It's not a- You'll have to do this before. It's a high game, so I'll have to do it before. I think Ryan and Swag usually go on NFL Live three hours before the game. So it should be right around that time.

Yeah.

I can go in there and try and catch a cross.

Or let's prerecord it. Let's pick out the exact time that this play happened and see if Jason can run full speed. I'm going to come back here. I'm going to catch a pass right here.

I'm going to come back the next week with a broken nose. I know that this is going to crush me.

Like Marsha braided?

Yeah.

Next week, the Eagles are taking on the Commanders on Thursday Night Football. That's right. We got a good one, baby. A little divisional game, probably the biggest game in the division. Those two teams are playing very fucking well.

This is huge.

Last time, both teams had records more than one game above 500 entering the game was November 26, 2000. Wow, how about that? 2000. Damn.

Been a while.

Who was on those 2000 teams?

2000 would have been Donovan. I don't know who would have been on Washington. I mean, Clinton Portis, maybe. That's a while ago.

Brad Johnson?

Wow. How about that?

Trick Shot, Brad. He's all over the internet doing trick shots. Shout out to Brad Johnson, man. Heck, yeah. All right, let's keep this thing moving and get out of the house because Jason was loose as a goose over there on the West Coast, baby.

All right, out of the house. That's right. Out of the House. That's right, Out of the House, brought to you by Coke Zero Sugar. Taco Game Day with the irresistible taste of Coke Zero Sugar. Is it the best Coke ever? Try it and decide.

Jason stopped by Egles Bar in LA, like he said, to watch the birds. How was it, Jason?

It was awesome. We were staying in Santa Monica for the game, so we hit up the local spots there. I think garage might have been a little bit outside of that, but we ended up going to Bertania, and the Garage Motor Club, I think is the full name of the bar.

Nice.

The whole weekend, though, was fun. It was a great time.

They didn't have any garage beer in there?

A lot of food. They did not have any garage beer. We're still trying to get over there on the West Coast.

We're going to get over there on the West Coast.

I talked to the guys about it. We're in the process. We're still working that out.

How was the LA Eagles fans compared to the natives back in Philly?

Obviously, they get to celebrate their Philadelphia fandom being together at these bars while eagles games are happening or Sixers or all this stuff. It's a fun moment for everybody to together. You're not around it constantly like you are in Philadelphia. So I think you could tell that this is much more of an event and a production for all the local guys and girls that live out that way. So it was cool. It was really awesome to be out there. I was trying to make it more of just a papa and show up, not be a whole production, but it turned into a whole production. But it was still fun. Everybody was super nice. The energy was crazy. Obviously, they were beating the crap out of Dallas, which leads to good energy from Eagles fans. Yeah. But yeah, it was a great time. Met a lot of really good people, have some stories, and enjoyed it.

Love it. Did you run into more Eagles fans or Rams fans out there?

Honestly, I'm probably saying Eagles fans.

Yeah, they're everywhere.

La is such a transplant city that there's really fans from all over the country there. Even the bar that I was saying, even before we went to the two English bars- All the coasts have that, though.

No doubt. I think LA and New York do have diehard fan base. It's harder in football because they haven't had that one team be there for the entire-Yeah, the Rams were there, and they left, and they came back. The Rams left, it came back. The Raiders have been in and out. The Chargers now are there. So it's like the fans, I don't know, latch on to whoever's good at the time because it's fun to watch, and it's tough. And I'm sure it's been hard on a lot of the fan bases or a lot of the diehard football fans to just fully commit to a team when the Ownership fucking yanks them out of there every 10 to 15 years.

Yeah, I also said I went to two Eagles bars, so obviously, I saw a ton of Eagles fans. At the Rams game, there were tons of Rams fans in the stadium.

Yeah, Ram's house, baby. They definitely get it rocking, for sure.

But the Big Dean's bar down there, the Giants bar, there's people from all over the country in LA. That was one of the cool things. It's a melting pot, right? You're seeing people from all over the country, all over the world.

It's the land opportunity. There's a lot of business that brings people together out there.

It was fun. I enjoyed my time there greatly. Had a lot of great food.

Jason, you got into a push-up contest. I did. Rocking the Gold's gym tank that you got. That is. We were out at Ram's house, and I was impressed, man.

54. I'm not going to lie. I did not think I was going to get 54. 54? I am very happy with this performance.

There's no way. My shoulders would snap. My shoulders would snap. You started... I mean, you did better than me. I would have went to a knee way before this. You fought through, and you dug deep, and you could tell you were grinding them out.

Yeah, and I got my ass kicked by a bunch of Navy Seals who are much better at pushups and a lot of things than I am. But this was awesome to be out there on Veterans Day with a bunch of guys that had served for this country for a number of years and to have some fun like this. It was a really cool experience, and just an awesome way to pay tribute. The whole evening was paying tribute to people in our military and armed services. It's awesome.

I think it's one of the best things the league does.

Salute to Service Week is always like...

It's the entire month in November. It changes depending on what teams have home games and when they specifically have their Salute to service game and stuff. But it's the reason why I wear the Army fatigue green gloves throughout the week. I typically try and get at least one pair to to somebody in uniform or afterwards, find somebody that's served or is serving now. It's awesome. We always pay our respects to those that are serving this beautiful country. We appreciate you guys forever for it, man.

Absolutely.

What was the guy in the black doing?

Dude, I don't know. This dude served like... I forget how many years Seth was in.

Dude, he's doing like the worm.

I have no idea if he's got bad hips Bad shoulders.

Maybe that's a technique.

All I know is doing 93 of whatever the fuck he's doing. I couldn't have done 93 of it. That's all I know.

It ain't cheating. It ain't... Yeah, whatever it is, he's doing them.

93 is still a lot in a one minute, and he killed it, so I'm happy for him.

All right. Anything else you want to mention in this trip?

No, it was just fun. Went to a lot of local spots. Like I said, had a bunch of great food. What's this burger place? I don't know. It was a fun. It was a very, very fun weekend in LA. Ran into Brandon one of the nights, which is always good. Did not see Jets Jake. He did not make the time for me, unfortunately. Yeah, had a good time.

Jets Jake is...

It's too busy. He's on social all the time. He doesn't leave the house except to walk his dog.

It's a tough life for Jets, Jake, right now.

He's also in depression with what's happening with the Jets right now.

It's tough.

We're actually going to have a video going up on some out-of-the-house stuff, so we'll see how that turns out.

Nice. I'm just so proud of you.

Of what, Travis?

For getting out of the house. You're such a homebody.

It was a fun week.

You're thriving right now. You're glowing. Look at you.

I love meeting people. That's what I like, being out of the house.

This is the first time I've ever heard of that.

No, I've always liked the people part. It's the walking and moving part that I don't like as much.

All right.

Yeah, that does it for Out of the House. Brought to you by Coke Zero Sugar.

Let's keep this thing moving to what else is going on in the NFL. Like Jared Goff, bringing the bun That's right. An incredible bun stat in the Lion's win over Houston, became the third quarterback in the last 30 years to win a game while throwing five interceptions.

How crazy is that?

Well done, Jared. As a fellow bun stats representative, Jared, I am proud of you for finding a way to fucking win. That's right. Because, God damn it, it is hard in the NFL.

Shout out to Jake Bates. Two big field goals at the end.

Oh, yeah. The actual game. That was a fun game. That was a fun game to watch. We were all watching it after hanging out, watching that game, and we were screaming, We want six. We want six. And we weren't talking about touch downs. We wanted to see that guy throw the six interception and still find a way to win. We wanted that button stat to be way more epic than it already was. Shout out to golf and the lines, though, man. Those guys are fucking playing hard. They got a big one this week, too.

Did you hear Dan Campbell speak into existence, the interception? Coming out of half, he's talking to the reporter. They do the little on field stuff, and the half starts, right? Houston's starting with the ball. First play of the second half. Campbell said, We just got to keep our head down, get a couple of things, go our way, get a couple of turnovers, and shoot as he says it. Interception for the Lions. Nice. Talk about speaking it into existence.

Fighting Dan Campbell's, baby. Yeah, baby. International Games. We had the final international game in Germany between the Panthers and the Giants. An absolute barn burner of the two and seven teams. After, Gael said, the League is looking to play upwards of eight games outside of the United States in 2025, including Ireland. Nfl has also announced it will play again. Yeah, that sounds super fun.

Dude, I am in on all of these.

A little Dublin. Where do you think it is? You think it's got to be Dublin?

It's going to be Dublin, I want to say.

Yeah, it's got to be Dublin.

Get a little Guinness factory in.

Nfl has already announced that it will play a game in the renovated stadium in Madrid that will return to the Estadio Azteca in Mexico City for the first time since 2022 when we played. You love that, right?

It was a nice mile long walk. Dude, I from the locker room. Dude, I love that shit.

Yeah, it was sweet, though. It was fun.

I remember you talked about how long the walk was from the locker room to the field.

It wasn't going down the ramp. It was coming up from half, and you're just like, Why the fuck did we just stay on the field?

Yeah.

But Mexico City was an awesome place to play. The Aztega was so fucking lit. And there's a lot of history in that place. Yeah. And it makes you feel like you're in a bunch of just a crazed environment for fucking competition. I love that shit. That's awesome. And the league is expected to be back in Brazil and Germany in 2025. So is this too much? Is this too much flying? Not to me. That's what I'm fucking saying, man. Send me to the moon.

I don't play anymore. For me, it's just a reason to go to a fun place to watch a football game. Are they traveling too much or going to Dublin, Ireland? Not if I get to go to Dublin, Ireland. I'm all on board with this.

This is what you did when I played in London last.

Yeah. I came to watch you guys.

You came out and then you went with your family over to Maryland.

It was our bye week, and I went out, and you guys are playing what, Detroit?

Detroit? Yeah. Found a way to get a dove. My guy Alex Smith had a great game.

Yeah, I am all in. I'm all in on all these international games. As long as most of the Eagles games are still in Philadelphia, I'm all in on all the international games.

I love it. I love the international games. Maybe get one over in Australia, though.

Let's go the other way. They've been talking about that for a while. I was curious that he didn't mention Australia.

We've been going east. Let's go west.

I think you can go either way. You can go either east or west. You'll run into it.

I think the Aussies would fucking get so rowdy playing one of those rugby stadiums.

Or one of those Australian football league stadiums. New Zealand.

Those things get fucking rocking, so I can only I can imagine.

Yeah, New Zealand is a different country, but it is-Yeah, that's what I said. It's the same, though.

I said Australia or New Zealand. Or New Zealand.

Okay. All right, my dude.

I mean, I used to think it was the same thing.

It's pretty much the Same.

All right, my dude.

Moving on to Steelers against the Commanders. Obviously, we just talked about the Eagles have a tough matchup against the Commanders this week. The Commanders lost to the Stealers this past week in a very close game that came off to a offsides jump.

Came down to it, yeah.

Watch this clip. They come up fourth and one. I mean, you know they're not going to run a play at the 50-yard line because if they don't get it, you're basically guaranteeing a field goal.

I mean, you don't know that.

Yeah, I mean, we're definitely running a play. But you know that the chance of them running a hard, you can't jump offsides. You know that there's a chance they're going to do this hard count.

That's tough. Gosh. That's tough.

My man, Isaac Sayamalu, signaling first down. Russ is happy.

He's doing the freaking- How can he not be, man?

He's doing the Mr. Unlimited dance. You just snuck one in there.

I think that was actually the put that shit on dance. Oh, okay. Steeler's Coach Mike Tomlin on getting the commanders to jump off sides on the clutch, fourth down. The reporter, I assume you were not going to go for it there on the fourth down. Mike Tomlin, We'll never know, will we? I am a degenerate. I am a degenerate. God damn, that's good. How about that? Yeah, just got to keep on their toes. You never know. Hey, Travis, which way are you supposed to go on this? We'll never know.

I think the more I think about it, you probably do go for it on fourth and one there because there's a lot of time left. And if you get it, the game's over. How confident do you feel?

We'll never know.

We'll never know what Mike was going to do. That's for sure. Is it hard not to false start? No, it is not hard. So this is what happens when some of the producers write the questions, guys. They said, Is it hard to not false start? I don't know. Is it hard to not false start for the offense? No. If it is the play that they're talking about where they're not going to run a play, it's incredibly easy not to false start. You're actually incredibly dumb if you do false start because there's no play. That being said, I have false started not knowing what the play was before. Never in a game But in practice, when you rep this, one time I was like, Doug's like, What are you doing, man? There's no play. I'm like, Yeah. I don't know why that just happened. I'm stupid for that. Doug was like, Yeah.

It's a good cadence, Coach.

It's a good cadence. I was like, I'm really dumb for that. Doug was like, Yeah.

We do that, they're going to jump. I was just letting you know I wasn't locked in. And if we catch them not locked in, that's what's going to happen.

I think the more applicable question is, is it hard to not jump as a defensive player? And probably not. I mean, typically everybody is reminding each other on both sides in this situation.

I mean, you would hope so. Maybe the commanders didn't...

Didn't signal it in. Any situation like that, you're typically telling them, Djo, or like, Dude, do not jump on the snap. It is okay to be a titch off of it. But maybe not. Maybe they just went all in. I don't know. Does the defense know you're not running a play? I mean, they might have had... That's the thing about this. They can go with a hard count and try and jump them off sides, but also have a play designed after that. I still got to think that they were probably not going to run a play there. They still had a couple of timeouts, so they probably were going to try and draw them off sides, then take the timeout and decide whether they're going to either punt or go for it.

Or just fucking do a QB sneak right there.

They're not doing a QBC. You know how I know that? Nope. The quarterback's feet. The quarterback, when they do quarterback sneaks, gets a foot behind him. He's got even feet. He's not running quarterback sneak right there. He could change him up, though, on the second cadence, I guess. I suppose.

There you go. Poopgate. Lyons, Linebacker, James Houston went viral this week for allegedly shitting his pants on the field. This is rough.

This is why I hate white pants. This is one of the reasons I hate white pants. I would like to say that I have not ever done this. And luckily, I haven't been out there during a game and done this before. But listen, sometimes you're exerting a lot of effort on the field. And if you get caught in the wrong type of gut situation- No, dude, what do you mean?

If he said it right here, Hey, I sat on some Gatorade. Come on.

Dude, Travis. Travis, you and I both know he sat on no Gatorade. Not in that exact in a specific spot. We all know what that is. And he has nothing to be ashamed of. I am here to have your back, James. I have done this. Dude, I did this before a game once. What was this? You know when you chart and you know that there's a possibility something just came up, but you're not certain.

You got to get off the field.

I turned, and I'm not going to announce names. I turned to my buddy, my O-line friend, and I was like, Hey, can you check me? Because I think I might have just checked myself. And he checks me. He says, You're good. I go for warmups, do the whole warmups. Lane comes up to me after warmups. He's like, Hey, you got shit all up and down your pants right now. So in between warmups in the start of the game, I- That should seep through. Keep my shoulder pads on take off all of my lower half.

All of it.

Get in the shower, I'm showering.

Oh, that's funny as fuck. You felt that nasty. You had to get it out.

It was disgusting. Yeah, I get it. But this is not the first time it's happened. I know many players that this happened to. It could potentially be Gatorade. I think it's probably highly likely it was a Shart that went awry. Because it's just this white pants, man. It's risky. It's a risky situation.

You got to- You got to eat right. You got to take your vitamins, make sure that gut health is right. All right, I'm done talking about shitting yourself.

All right.

Coach, quote of the week comes from Saints Interim. Interim.

Interim head coach. Got to win.

Saints, big win after fire against health. Yeah, Darren Rizzi after After the win against the Falcons, I'm a pretty open guy. That's a good treat. I go to the bathroom. This is how my day started. I clogged a toilet. I'm like, This is going to be a crappy day, pun intended. Got fired up. He clogged the toilet.

Yeah. I mean, listen, he's an open guy. He's an open book. Not afraid to admit anything. It's just another list in the category.

Sounds like he was patting himself on the back there.

It's like he's letting him know, Hey, I'm a man. I take big shits. Hey, shit.

I don't need no modium. I'm going to fucking clog this shit up. You better have some good pipes.

Oh, my gosh. Yeah, what is it about interim coaches, man? It feels like they always win their first game.

It's like routine. I think it's a mixture of teams motivated to play harder. I think nobody wants to see anybody get fired, but at the same time, everybody wants to be there for whoever's job it is to step in. It's not an easy thing to do. I think sometimes that can circle the bandwagons for teams. On top of that, you see one guy get fired, you see the headman get fired at that, shit, everybody's on fucking notice.

No doubt.

Everyone's a little bit more dialed in, a little bit more locked in. And who knows what other motivating factors were going on in the building or who they got back or things like that. But maybe even to switch up a scheme, a little bit more unknown on what the play calls are going to be.

Yeah.

All that plays into part for sure. And that does it for BOLD Topics. Moving on to no dumb questions because there's no such thing as dumb questions. Just dumb-ass people answering some dumb questions.

Wait, what?

No Dumb Questions is brought to you by our friends at Burger King. Man, that Wapper was so good. It was pretty damn good. I'm not going to lie. That Sesame bun. Yeah, it's got my mouth water right now. I'm hungry myself.

I might go get a burger for dinner now, a little Burger King Wapper. First No Dumb Question, how hard is it really to make O-line position, to move O-line positions? When a right guard moves to left guard, sometimes anunciors act like it's no big deal, but sometimes it act like it's the most impressive thing an NFL player can do. I imagine it's like driving on the other side of the road. I would say it's a little bit harder than driving on the other side of the road. Some players are very good and natural at switching sides and are ambidextrous. It's more similar to probably switch hitting in baseball, but hitting a baseball is just way harder. What it really comes down to is you're using your feet in a different stance and stagger than you do on the other side of the ball. Maybe more importantly, your hands have to be used differently. Like your inside hand placement is obviously with a different hand, and that has a lot to do with how you pass it and your relationship with the defender. So I would say it is definitely hard, but some guys are very good at it, and it's not difficult at all.

They can go back and forth. A lot of it is player-specific. Some guys are awful when you try and have them play another side. They just can't figure it out quickly. And some guys can switch over like it's nothing. And that's one of the reasons why backup guys that can play both sides and move and play either left or right.

The tweeners.

It's a valuable thing to have.

We had a few of those guys here.

This always reminds me when I'm talking about this to the Pro Bowl, back when you actually used to play the game. The biggest issue all week was always that all All of the Pro Bowl tackles that made it were always left tackles. And somebody had to go play right. And nobody wanted to play right because it was a different... Like your right leg's back instead of your left, you're using your hands different. They all didn't want to play it. And it would devolve into the youngest guy with the least Pro Bowl, always had to play right. And he would be getting his ass kicked every game, and we'd have to slide it over to him because that was the only problem with the pass rush. So it's definitely a thing. It's definitely hard, but for some guys, it's easier than others.

I would assume that it's like driving on the other side of the road.

All right, there we go. And then at Witey's version, if you could pick one article of clothing to wear for the rest of your life, what would it be? Interesting.

That's a tough question. Where am I at in the world? Yeah.

Does this mean if I pick a shirt, I can't wear pants? I'm assuming this is what outfit, or do I have to wear suspenders because I got to get top and bottom coverage.

Again, there's not enough to this question.

Let's assume it's outfit. Let's say you get shoes, a lower half and an upper half. That's what you get.

Again, where am I at?

Well, this is the whole point. You don't know. You only get to choose it, and it has to be ready to adapt to any place that you might be.

All right. Well, then I'll go hoodie and sweat pants, and some Jordans. Hoodies, sweat pants. Jordans, I can do. Actually, not Jordans. I got to go like, combat boots.

I was about to say you can't go Jordans.

You can't go Jordans.Combat.

Boots.combat boots.

All purpose.

That's why they're combat boots. They got to be ready for everything.

If it starts to get really hot, roll those fuckers up, shorten those sleeves up, maybe get rid of the hoodie, put it in your fucking-Are you allowed to take it off? Pouch. Yeah, that's what You just cut the hoodie, put it in your sweatshirt pouch, though.

Well, if you cut it, then it's ruined forever.

No, then you put it in your pouch, and when you need it again, you just put it right on.

So it's a zippered hoodie? No. One of those zipper ones where the hoodie comes in.

Just tuck it underneath. You can find a way.

I would I have a wool clothing because it's anti-microbial, so I don't have to worry about it getting as dirty as cotton or synthetic materials.

Okay.

A decent medium thickness wool so that I'm pretty warm most of the time, and I'm trying to stay out of cold climates. I would go with a decent medium wool sweat because it's breathable so that when it's hot out, you still get some breathability. When it's cold out, it still retains some insulatory properties. And then I would go wool socks, and I would go hiking boots so that you're good to do whatever you want them.

You are going to one smelly motherfucker because wool, everything is going to be hot as fuck.

No, it breathes. It doesn't. Woll is a known breathable- Jason, you wear wool in 80-degree weather, you are sweating your ass off. Well, I'll just roll the pant legs up.

You're still going to see it. Shit's on your back and your chest. If it's on your shoulders, you're going to start to sweat.

What did you say you were going for pants?

Sweat pants. I'm just going to sweat the pants.

You don't think that's going to be hot in 80 degrees?

No. What are you talking about? Not if I roll it up.

But if you got the wool, the wool breathes better than cotton. Are you going cotton sweat pants? No. What are you going?

I'm going wool sweat pants. Everyone else goes wool sweat pants. You're going like synthetic? All right, that does it for no dumb-ass questions. I'm sick of these dumb-ass questions. You guys come up with some really fucking good dumb questions. Please. Or not dumb questions, please. I'm starting to get a bit of a pump. That does it for no dumb questions.

It's a lucky beaver.

Shut the fuck up. Yeah. Dude, they have cups now? When I was there-I guess they do. They do have a wall of merch that you can get. They do.

They had a bunch of cool shirts, and that was one of the cups. I was like, Yeah, I'm definitely snacking that.

What do you think the Lucky Beaver means?

I don't really ask questions. I think some things are best left unsaid.
