Ballinesian Podcast

Welcome back to the Ballinesian Podcast! We're starting with the Chargers bucking a decades-long curse of ineptitude with a tough win on Sunday Night Football versus the Cincinatti Bengals. We'll also discuss the (Black and) Silver lining of this season for Raider Nation: finding an absolute DOG in Georgia TE Brock Bowers, who trails only Ja'Marr Chase (73) in receptions with 70 so far of his own. We'll also go down the list of our Quick Hits and give you the latest on all the top teams in the NFL, which former NFLers we think will be immortalized in the Pro Football Hall of Fame this year, whether Jake Paul will ever fight someone who can knock him out, Lakers' rookie Dalton Knecht almost getting to double-digit 3PM vs the Jazz, and which Thanksgiving sides are our favorites. Have a great Turkey Day, if you're one of the people that knows how to make juicy turkey...

Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa is set to return to action next week after missing time due to another concussion. He does not plan to wear a Guardian Cap when he returns. Personal choice. We also discuss the Chargers and Raiders losses in Week 7. Game balls to Cameron Dicker and Daniel Carlson, both had five field goals and accounted for all of their team's scoring. We hit some other rumors and transactions: Could Maxx Crosby be readying for a trade away from the Raiders? Did Mahomes pretend to go out of bounds? Is it okay for men to cry? Raiders also signed QB Desmond Ridder from the Cardinals practice squad after putting Aidan O'Connell on IR. Follow us at @ballinesian. Sponsored by www.levasaislandapparel.com.

Davante Adams was traded to the Jets and is expected to play this Sunday, his hamstring must have healed up on the flight over to New York lol. It's gonna be all vibes and backyard football but might actually go well, we shall see. On the other side of the coin, the Raiders look to move on after trading Adams away, should they fight for a Wildcard playoff chance or just tank to get their rebuild a better draft pick? The Chargers went into Denver and steamrolled the Broncos for their first win in six years at Mile High Stadium. Los Angeles has a chance to win their next four games if they can win their next game at Cardinals on Monday Night Football.

Welcome back! Football season is in full swing - we got a Firing! The New York Jets released Robert Saleh. Shout out to University of Hawaii's Jeff Ulbrich for taking over as interim head coach. Are the Jets desperate enough to trade for Davante Adams? (Will Aaron Rodgers ever make the playoffs again? Idk... no.) We also talk about the Chargers and Raiders upcoming games in Week 6: The Chargers head to Denver to stop the Broncos-winning streak or add to the growing lore of rookie Bo Nix. The Raiders look to hold down the fort at Allegiant Stadium vs TJ Watt and the Pittsburgh Steelers. Who will be starting at QB for the Raiders? Who will be starting at QB for the Steelers!? Shout out to BALLINESIAN OF THE WEEK Frankie Luvu, who finished with seven tackles (four solo), two and a half sacks, two tackles for loss and a fumble recovery lol HWHATT! Man's was on FIYYYERRRRR. Keep it up, Uso.

We dive into the Raiders Week 4 game vs the Browns before talking about how the team may look moving forward with today's news that Las Vegas is open to trading away WR Davante Adams. Bowers-Powers-Johnson Szn. We also discuss Justin Herbert decided to play through an ankle sprain vs Kansas City in a tough divisional game. We end with the latest season-changing injuries to players you may want to know about. Find us on socials at @ballinesian. Sponsored by www.levasaislandapparel.com.

Welcome back!

We're previewing Week 4 in the NFL and focused in on the Raiders and Chargers, both with some injured stars that will be out the week. Las Vegas looks to bounce back after a trap game loss at home to the Panthers and with Just Herbert nursing an ankle sprain (and with both his starting offensive tackles out), Los Angeles might tuck tail vs Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs and just limp to their Week 5 bye.

We also go through all five of the remaining undefeated teams (they're all on the road this week) and see which one of them doesn't make it to 4-0.
