"I do eat butt all the time."

Chris Jones trusts in his kicker, Zaslow calls out one of the biggest busts of all time, and Roy knows what Greg's talkin' about. Plus, ESPN released a statement after Dan called them out for hiring primarily white voices for their NFL coverage. Dan has a response.

"Shough is the real d-, oh sorry."

After Dan makes sure we properly dive into the pain and agony of Ross Tucker's football-playing days, we go rapid-fire through some of the most important NFL topics, including the Saints, Bengals defense, and fears for Mike McDaniel. Plus, Ross walks us through the food spread at an NFL game and picks some Greg Cote Catchphrases to try to fit into his broadcast of the Steelers and Bengals this weekend.

"That's some Samantha Bennett hair if I've ever seen it."

Today is the day. Last week we heard No. 2 on Greg Cote's Top 70 Catchphrases, so we'll surely get his No. 1 today, right? He also, as a noted dog hugger, recorded a video about his future writing plans with dog hair all over him. Plus, Jeff Hafley says he's been getting compliments about his Dolphins team, which leads to a big bet between Dan and Greg. And should the national NBA media believe in Giannis Antetokounmpo, Pelle Larsson, and the Miami Heat more than they do?

Today's cast: Dan, Greg, Roy, Chris, Jeremy, Tony, and Zaslow.

A cataclysmic Week 2 is in the books, and we’re breaking down all the fallout—from Ja'Marr Chase's mind-bending catch to why the Trinidad Chambliss "too old as a rookie" narrative at 25 makes zero sense. We update the season-long Picks battle before bringing on L.A. Rams play-by-play caller JB Long to break down Aaron Donald's return, whether Puka Nacua is the ultimate Jenga piece to this offense, and why L.A.'s Melbourne trip feels like ancient history. Plus, Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson are playing at their absolute peaks, but can either finally lift a Lombardi?

" I remember when this show used to be a proper radio show."

We're goin' rapid fire through Dan's Top 10 but have to pause before his final Observation to get to some OTHER Observations. That's right, Amin is here to run us through his Weekend Observations, including a tough day for Aaron Rodgers, a coach who belongs in The Odyssey, and Marvin Tarantino. Then, finally... Dan's No. 1 (-8) Football Observation.

"Top of the cleat could be crushing the scrotum."

Football is a game of inches. You'll get that joke when you listen to the big moment of this hour. Speaking of inches, we're inching closer toward Dan's Top 10 Football Observations by discussing Roy's alias, Tyler Shough and them boys in New Orleans, and the return of 2022 Patrick Mahomes. Also, we're not sure who had the better fight this weekend: UFC or NASCAR.

"How do you chastise a person who was right?"

Since the Dolphins may just go 0-17 this season, Zaslow's TV quickly switched over to the Florida Panthers preseason game last night, but more importantly, the crew is concerned about the University of Miami's performance against Wake Forest. Plus, we get to Dan's No. 44 through No. 35 NFL and College Football thoughts from over the weekend, including Darren Waller, FSU, Taylor Swift, and an old rusty truck.

Today's cast: Dan, Zaslow, Roy, Jeremy, Mike, and Tony.

Sixty minutes are in the books, and the NFL landscape is already pure chaos! Are the Jets and Giants both actually competent? Is it time to panic about the vaunted Texans defense after giving up 36 points to Josh Allen and the Bills? Plus, we dig into Bill Belichick’s second chapter at UNC, the Patriots’ continued struggles, the sleep-drunk Rams, and the total power outages plaguing the Chargers’ offense. To make sense of the opening-week fallout, our friend Ten Day Tony joins our show along with the great Gregg Rosenthal (that’s Gregg with three Gs).
