  • The Best NFL Thanksgiving Football Slate Ever & More Week 13 Odds, Predictions, + Best Bets

    I cannot believe I am going to say this but I am thankful for Roger Goodell on this glorious Thanksgiving for giving us this amazing trifecta of football matchups to enjoy with our turkey, potatoes, and stuffing! The morning opens up with a Packers/Lions rematch, followed by a Chiefs/Cowboys afternoon blast off, and finally we get the return of Joe Burrow against Lamar in what may be the highest scoring game of the year! Gobble Gobble! The action does not stop there, Black Friday we get the red hot Bears against the defending SB champ Eagles, and tons of college football rivalries that go into the weekend before we finish with Sunday NFL where the lines are talking to Darren and Sterling as can be seen in this episode.

    We cannot wait!

    Enjoy your Thanksgiving everyone!

  • An Eagles & Cowboys Thriller, Chiefs Stay Alive & Who Acted More Like Kenny Powers Today; Shedeur Sanders or Aaron Rodgers? + More Week 12 Reactions

    What a week of NFL football, I can say that every week but specifically this week! The league fired on all cylinders as we had OT games out the wazzu, and had exciting finishes all morning and afternoon (we are trying to act like that SNF game did not happen because it was UGLY).

    The Eagles blew a 21 points lead, the Colts blew a 11 point lead to a team they are probably scared to ever play again, we had fireworks we had the Pats just sneaking by the worst defense in football, the Packers effectively ending 9's career, and Aaron Rodgers doing his best Kenny Powers impression but being possibly one upped by a better Kenny Powers impression later in the day, oh and Jameis Winston loves to play this sport + Much Much More!

  • Are The Kansas City Chiefs Actually in Trouble? Looks Like Sam Darnold Needs Another Exorcism & Goff's Cold Weather Disaster + Much Much More From an Amazing Week 11 of The NFL Season

    What a week of football! We provide a live watchalong to the second half of one of the worst games of it (Lions vs. Eagles) where Jared Goff shows that he doesn't spend enough time outdoors in the Detroit winter. This proved to not matter though as the bet one of the two hosts was sweating ended up hitting anyways because Mr. Bates right foot was able to take care of business in hurricane level gusts. We talk about every game, the state of the league, the fact that the Chiefs are in actual danger of missing the playoffs, Darnold having a new ghost haunt him around again after thinking the demons were gone, Josh Allen bullying the Bucs defense, the Chargers doing that(???), Jameis Winston, Myles Garrett, Shadeur Sanders, Jordan Love, and so much more!!! JAM PACKED!

    Greg DNP this week (Time Change)

    Sterling may be under the weather (Man-Flu) but that isn't the reason he rained on the premature Colts parade in Indiana! He and Darren both are perplexed that a team would trade 2 first round picks for a CB in 2025, and don't let them get started on Dallas and what the hell Jerry Jones & Co. are doing. They discuss all the trades, what they think of them, and where the league is at through 9 weeks before diving into all the week 10 action that is upcoming.
