The West Coast Gamblers

Wow, what a week! There couldn't be more parity in this league if we had planned it ourselves. Too bad we can't say the same for the Battle for LA. At the top of the list for the guys this week is a visit from longtime friend of the show, Professor Pat. He joins in on a spirited MFK of surprising division leaders(10:34), a discussion of which coach will get fired first (21:00), and What Grinds His Gears (25:05). Matt attempts to explain What Had Happened to his New England Patriots against TJ's Panthers(3:11). They breakdown The Battle for LA (30:41) with the extremely disappointing Chargers (31:09) and the high flying, pride of LA, division-leading Rams (37:34). The season long Gravestones (27:03) and Pick'em (49:28) challenges are becoming hotly contested as teams are finding it more difficult to separate and we address the increase in parity in our Questions From the Fans (45:39).

This week on TLC, Brian takes a turn explaining 'What Had Happened' (5:24) after the Lions lost to the Falcons on a soul-crushing last-second play. Then, things get heated as the guys debate a Von Miller penalty(9:53). Plus, we MFK 2nd year QBs (14:53) and as always, hand out our Gravestones (22:41). Plus, with the Rams now leading their division and the Chargers in last in theirs, we update the Battle for L.A. (26:31) and tell you where we're at on the Chargers/Rams fan-o-meter after three weeks of L.A. football. Last, we answer fan questions (46:50) and do our weekly Pick 'Em Challenge (51:33), where a new leader has emerged once again. It's the best podcast west of the Mississippi and your one-stop shop for Los Angeles football.

With a week remaining in the preseason and after dueling over who will reign supreme in the AFC, the boys are back to duke it out in the 2017 NFC Preview. First, the guys marry/fuck/kill rookie QBs who have had strong showings in the preseason (4:26) and then move on to the divisions. First, the NFC West (7:45)...will the Rams get any love from the guys or are they destined to remain in purgatory as neither the best nor worst team in their division? Then, a heated battle erupts in the NFC East (20:23) after a surprising 'marry' pick from Dangles and maybe an even more surprising 'fuck' pick from Tony. Then it's on to Brian and Tony's beloved NFC North (40:17) before rounding out with the NFC's toughest division this year, the South (53:13), and sharing their NFC playoff picture predictions (1:12:14).
