    On this week's episode:

    Lions vs Steelers is bound to be a low scoring affair and Matt expects the steel curtain to put Ben in bubble wrap for most of the game (15:11-20:48)
    The Saints are a test for the Titans to see whether or not they could hang with the big dogs in the AFC despite not having Derrick Henry (20:48-26:27)
    Is this next game against the Chargers  for the Vikings  going to decide whether or not the job security of Mike Zimmer? (26:27-32:13)
    Mac Jones is going to have to keep his head on a swivel because Myles Garret might literally eat one of his ankles off to support his defensive end brethren (32:13-41:13)
    Will this be the week the Chiefs figure it out? Edward thinks so (41:13-45:46)
    Little Monday Night Football recap/broadcasters rant to end the show (45:46)

    The Lakers continue to look like a team of greatest hits instead of one continuously flowing album (16:59-21:40)
    It's time to debate rotations and more specifically whether guys like Wayne Ellington and Malik Monk should be given a turn in the starting rotation (21:40-24:17)
    With the score at 110-101 the Lakers committed three after the whistle fouls that resulted in 5 straight free throws and nearly cost them the game (24:17-28:55)
    The dichotomy of Russel Westbrook begins (28:55)

  • Episode 40: Doggone it Dave Roberts

    Edward and Matt's spirits are crushed and are down astronomically bad after Dodgers drop to 0-2 in NLCS after back to back walkouts in Atlanta. 
    Game 1 featured one of the most jarring and bizarre base running blunders you will ever see in the playoffs (0:24-5:03) Game 2 was manager Dave Roberts having thought induced CTE and not knowing how to make simple decisions. Every time he made a decision it was the wrong one (5:03-17:24) The boys end the show by sharing their apocalyptic views on the season. 
    Misery loves company so why not tag along for this episode.
