Hour 1 opens with a breakdown of Thursday Night Football, where the Falcons pulled off a 29–28 win behind a big night from Kyle Pitts while the Buccaneers continued to look out of sync. We check in on the latest high school football playoff action before turning to Dolphins–Steelers on Monday Night Football, where Miami will face cold weather, a loud Pittsburgh crowd, and a major opportunity. With the Dolphins’ formula of a strong run game and solid offensive line finally clicking — and the Steelers boasting one of the league’s weakest defenses — Miami has a chance to take a big step forward and silence long-running narratives about cold-weather and big-game struggles. We wrap with some pickleball drama and a trip around the NFL, including the Falcons’ penalty-filled TNF win, Tampa Bay’s slide, tough outlooks for the Colts and Chargers, a T.J. Watt injury update, and why keeping DK Metcalf in check remains a key for Miami.
