NFL Week 2 Breakdown: Packers Rise, Chiefs Fall, and Surprises Everywhere
Recorded September 14th, 2025
The NFL landscape is already shifting dramatically after just two weeks of action. The Packers have emerged as legitimate contenders following their dominant Thursday night victory over Washington, complete with a striking "white cheddar" whiteout at Lambeau Field that had fans buzzing. Their defense has been particularly impressive, allowing just three touchdowns across two games against potent offenses.
Meanwhile, the Chiefs find themselves in unfamiliar territory at 0-2 for the first time in the Mahomes era, prompting speculation about whether they might make a desperate move to reunite with Tyreek Hill. The Cardinals have shocked everyone by starting 2-0, while the Bengals face uncertainty with Joe Burrow potentially sidelined for months with a turf toe injury.
College football delivered its share of drama too, with Tennessee's heartbreaking missed field goal against Georgia and Old Dominion's stunning upset over Virginia Tech that got their coach fired the next day. We break down all the action, including fantasy football implications from one of the strangest kickoff return mistakes you'll ever see.
Looking ahead to Monday Night Football's doubleheader featuring Tampa Bay vs. Houston and the Chargers vs. Raiders, we offer predictions and analysis on what to expect. Plus, we tease next week's special Ryder Cup preview as golf's premier team event approaches.
Whether you're a fantasy manager scrambling after Week 2 injuries, a bettor looking for edges, or just a football fan trying to make sense of this unpredictable season, this episode delivers the insights, laughs, and honest reactions you need to navigate the early NFL season madness.

Graham:What's up everyone? Welcome back to another episode of the Bald Guys on the Bench. Bro, week two of the NFL Excited much.
Scott:It's been a pretty good weekend. Some crazy games, but you know, before we start talking about them, it's that time. But before it's that time, I do owe you and the listeners a shot. Let's go.
Scott:Not many people will remember this until I bring it up. I did say I guarantee Kirk Cousins would not be on the starting roster for opening day for the Falcons. And here we are, week two. He's actually back where he came from, in Minnesota, and, god knows, is this about watching Grass Grow Game? Can we get the Vikings off of? You know national televised games, but anyhow, here you go. Little maker's mark. It was either that or vodka, and I ain't taking no shot of vodka. So maker's mark, here we go. This goes out to you and all the listeners. What did I see?
Graham:you had a bottle in your hand of you know a little bourbon myself, a little Redwood Empire.

If you like field goals, you're gonna love to love this game. But anyhow, how was your weekend? What did you do Anything special, anything fun? What can you tell everybody about? And just as you're getting ready to tell, that's like the 20th sack. I wonder what the total for sacks in this game was, because that shit was over in the first half, not only for the Falcons, but the Vikings, like good God, almighty.
Graham:I know, and I took the over. Whoops, bro, the weekend's been good. What did I do? I got woken up with a surprise today, got up, set the alarm. I know folks, oh, graham gets up super late, he's not going to make it. Guess what happened. Your boy was up at 9 45, came out, went out to the living room, saw pops there, saw the tv was already on. I'm getting ready to grab the remote so I can go to my quote unquote. And, folks, I'm in parentheses, my site that I use to uh, watch my sealer game because it's obviously not on the local channels here. And my dad says to me he's like hey, bro, I got good news.

Scott:I'm like, don't worry about it, dad it's the best feature of the sunday ticket. That's it yeah wow, uh.
Graham:So, yeah, just watch a ball today. Uh, yesterday watched a lot of college ball, um, and then really the only note of excitement was uh, I had a good interview the other day, uh, for a new job. I think it went well and hopefully I should be hearing some in a couple days. Other than that, weekends were good for me. What about you, brother? How was your weekend?
Scott:uh, it was good it was. My weekend consisted of one day off, just because it's crunch time at the club and had ladies member guests friday. Saturday, kellen had second jv game th night. Didn't get to see the first quarter of the oh, did he make that? Yes, he did 15-6. Didn't get to see the first quarter of the Washington Packers game but got home yesterday got to watch the ending of the Georgia-Tennessee game. We'll talk about that in a few minutes. Then got to watch Notre Dame-Texas A&M, a couple good college games on last night. Old Dominion at Virginia Tech, we'll talk about that too. But you know it was good.
Scott:Made some stakes today, dude, we were afraid about the propane for the Blackstone, like I don't remember when I bought the tank and kristen was like fuck, kroger's got some deals on some strips, let's go get them. And I'm like all right. So we were cleaning out the garage, cleaning out the shed today and, dude, literally saw a bag of charcoal. And then the thing that badger bought when he was here, the easy, you know light and charcoals. Now it's like this cylinder thing, you put charcoal in it, you get this shit and you light it and it's super easy. Yeah, and I'm like oh, dude, I'm breaking out the weber dude, I haven't cooked on charcoal in forever, dude. Oh man, chef boyard, wa guess who's back back again, chef boy waiwa Telefriend.
Scott:Oh dude, they were bomb, they were so good. And you know, obviously you know me, I'm a New York strip guy. I like ribeyes, but you pay a lot for a little.
Graham:Facts.
Scott:Yeah, but whatever, we're not even getting into that. So good weekend Ladies. Remember guests in the books dude Golf. I know everybody's gonna be shocked when I announce this, but guess who won again? Oh, scotty scheffler.
Graham:oh, let me show you my shock face but I I mean it would be your shock face, considering the guy was on the green for an eagle putt and three putted.
Scott:But even it's not in the notes and before we even start getting into football, I thought I'd bring this up. Uh, the european team played in the dp tour at the bmw championship and pretty much everybody except for xander shawley, who just had a kid, and bryson, who's not allowed to play, played in the pGA Tour tournament up in Napa. So Europe's team here's how they finished T5, t5, t5, t13, t20, t20, t46, t46, t61, miscut, miscut. Okay, I'm not naming names because that would take too long. Our team in Napa here's how we finished. And this is everyone except for you know, obviously, like I just said, shoffley and Bryson. Right Scheffler Wynn Griffin I have to say his name because he was a captain's pick. Second Spawn, sixth I'm going to name our names because I'm a United States citizen and I don't give a shit about those dudes Cam Young T9.
Scott:Sam Burns T13. Henley T19. Cantley T30. Harris English 43. Morikawa 43. And JT 69th. So both squads had a great weekend. Just saw a picture on Instagram. The Europeans are on a jet on the way to new york. It's close, it's getting there, bro.
Graham:I know my excitement is yeah like I'm like shaking excited right now for my flight, not this wednesday, but next wednesday. Um, just so pumped, so ready to go out there. Uh, I mean, to be honest, how about is the over-under? Am I gonna lose my voice the first day, the second day, the third day?
Scott:I I mean I don't, I don't, I don't know. I just, I just hope you send some good videos of some New Yorkers beating the shit out of some Europeans, because you know you're going to see it. I mean, I don't want to see fights at a golf tournament, but you know you're going to see it.
Graham:No, of course not, of course not.
Scott:You know you're going to see it, yeah, but you know we're not going to dive into that today. No, because next week is that Ryder Cup preview. All right, week is that Ryder Cup preview, but dude, thursday night, you know, packers hosted in Washington.
Graham:First thing I got to say is how sick was the whiteout at Lambeau as.
Scott:Bess likes to say, the white cheddar For a team that's built around tradition and not doing anything different. Right, I loved it. Loved it, and I guess it was originally planned. I was listening to it on the radio coming home from kellen's game. This game was originally planned to be in like november or something like that for the white, but the organization was like wait, what we can't do it in November. We don't own white jackets. Please catch that, jefferson. The overthrowing by six yards. They don't have jackets, all they have are green jackets. I get it. Packers are like we ain't spending all this money for jackets on the sideline for one game. Yeah right, yeah no.
Graham:But, that being said, I wouldn't object. I mean, look, I'm not a Packers fan, obviously. Could I put a petition in? I think they should stay with the white helmets. I think they look sick. That's just me.
Scott:Just me personally. It'll never happen, but I like it too. I like it too.
Graham:Dude, it's like when Cincinnati does it when they have the white helmet Sick With their new stick. Yeah.
Scott:You know, yeah, but anyhow, is it time to go ahead and acknowledge the Packers are legit? I mean, not that we didn't think that after week one, but there were questions. Are the Lions that shitty, losing both coordinators, which obviously we saw today with the amount of points they put up? No, but the one thing we can both agree on is guess what, hey Bears, no matter who your head coach is, no matter who your quarterback is, you're still the shittiest team in the NFC South North.
Scott:Yeah yeah, yeah, you can do all this. I mean and deep breaths and whatever. Caleb Williams, ben Johnson, whatever. Yeah, you can do all this. I mean and deep breaths, and whatever. Caleb Williams, ben Johnson, whatever. Dude, you got boat raced and of course, you got boat raced when I'm playing Jeff and he's got Amon St Brown and scores 37 touchdowns. We appreciate it, dude. I mean the Packers. Add Micah and the way he looks week two. I mean he just got there three weeks ago, bro. He just got there. He don't even know people's names.
Graham:Yeah, do they play the Eagles this year?
Scott:I don't know they will eventually.
Graham:Yeah, you know. The biggest question marks for the Packers was what's going on with the wide receiver group? Can Love step up as a quarterback and lead his team, be the commander? What's going to happen with the defense?
Scott:I see what she did right there, commander, thursday night they're gelling.
Graham:Dude, you got to. I don't care who you are, you have to give credit. Where credits do I mean, unless you're just a jackass? I mean watching the packers play balanced. The run game looks good, the defense looked good, the back end looked good and they're not playing slubs and they lost a wide receiver.
Scott:Re, is it read? Yeah, read, yeah, shoulder, but he's done yeah and their their rookie receiver really hasn't even gotten going yeah, golden golden. Yeah, I mean Jacobs. I mean, how many games in a row is my guy got a touchdown? I think 11, now sheesh, I mean you and I were mean. How many games in a row has my guy got a touchdown? I think 11, now, sheesh, I mean, you and I were talking the night before the game. I want to put an anytime touchdown bet on Jacobs. It was minus 180.
Graham:Yeah.
Scott:No, I'm good.
Graham:Yeah, I'd rather make a 10-leg parlay for a dollar than bet that.
Scott:I mean Same waste of money. There you go. I mean, just listen to this dude. The Packers opened up against the Lions. We all know what the Lions offense is right. And then game two was against Washington. We all know, rookie of the year last year, daniels, in their offense, how they fly around Right, they've allowed three touchdowns in two games against those two teams. Yeah, three, three. And one of them was a garbage time touchdown to a tight end from Detroit when the game was over.
Graham:You're right, I just I mean. The thing about it is, if you think about it and this is just my observation it's week one, you know what I mean? Well, it's week two now. Well, no, but I'm just saying I knew you were going to say that, with how the lions looked week one. And I knew you were going to say that.
Scott:With how the Lions looked week one, and I knew you were going to say that, and so I didn't put it on the notes.
Graham:Of course not.
Scott:I know Graham's going to say it's week two. Just remember you're going to laugh your ass off at this. Don't take a sip when I say this. Okay, remember what the Saints did last year through two weeks and all the points they were scoring and everybody was crowning them. Yeah, how did that work out?
Graham:Everyone always talks about, especially the announcers, are like oh, it's tough for teams, or especially, statistically, teams that go 0-2 rarely make the playoffs. Correction, there were three teams last year that made the playoffs. That started. Oh and do so. I mean, it's a nice trend that maybe the times are changing. But look, I'm still. I'm still sticking to. It's the beginning of the season. A lot of the stars didn't play preseason. Teams are a little rusty and you know they're going to start getting into. Think of it right now. Um, it's just, it is what it is granted. There are teams that look better than others. For sure, aka the packers eagles look pretty good, but you can also tell that the eagles don't look the same as they did last year. You know their defense doesn't look well. Let me say their back end doesn't look as dominant. They don't have Slay anymore. They don't have another one of their linebackers anymore. They lost one of their defensive tackles, but they're still solid.
Scott:They looked good, dude Hurts, I just saw something we're not even getting in the NFL yet, but dude, the eagles played a terrible offensive game today.
Graham:Yeah, terrible, yeah, beat the chiefs the eagles can win games and their two top wide receivers combined probably only had what seven catches yeah, I mean, I don't even know.
Scott:But before we get into some college football, since we're talking the Eagles Chiefs the Chiefs are 0-2 for the first time in the Mahomes era. How's that feel? You know how it feels. You know how it feels. You know how it feels. But, dude, if I'm the Chiefs and I know we're going to get into this later if I'm the Chiefs, I call the goddang Miami Dolphins right now and go. What do you want for Tyreek Hill? Whatever you want, I got it. They're the only team in the NFL that has dealt with this guy. Knows his bullshit drama. Yeah.
Graham:Is he worth a third?
Scott:Right now For them You're 0-2?. You got to go to the Giants next week and then, I think, the week after that they play the Lions and then the week after that they play the Ravens. You better do something on that goddamn offense. I mean so to answer your question.
Graham:Yeah, I mean, you can't give up after week two, you can't, but that being, said they're without that schedule? No, but my point in saying that is does that make you as the chief's organization, do you offer a little more to probably get tyreek? Do you say, hey, maybe I need to give you a two?
Scott:if you gave them a third, you're gonna have to get the dolphins to take on some of that salary. You're gonna have to yeah, well, I don't think they can take on that salary right now anyway, so no they can, they're gonna have to, they're gonna have to eat some of it, half of it, whatever Right, and if I'm the chief I'll give them a third if they eat some salary.
Graham:But anyhow, Well, I got to ask you this one question If they get Tyreek, is that the answer?
Scott:It's what they need. Were these out, even though he practiced. Yeah. Rasheed Rice is out for another four weeks. Yeah.
Graham:Yeah, no, I agree.
Scott:I mean, if my Chargers win tomorrow night, every team in the AFC West is going to lose week two. Yeah, and we got a game at hand. My Chargers win tomorrow night, every team in the AFC West is going to lose week two. Yeah, and we got a game in hand because we beat them. Yeah, I mean, dude, I've talked a lot of shit. No, they come to us.
Scott:Oh what a liar. Like Pete in the book, he said dude, I've talked a lot of shit on. He goes today, before the Colts actually beat the Broncos. He goes, dude, the way the Broncos and the way the Chargers are playing, it could be the year it's week two. Like you just said, a lot of football. Everybody was crowning the Saints last year for the greatest team on earth. With how many points they were fucking scoring who, and then how did that work out? Yeah, exactly, but, dude, points they were fucking scoring who and then how? Yeah, how'd that work out? Yeah, exactly, but, dude, I don't know. Uh, let's just jump real quick. College football, we'll jump into the week too. Uh, dude, the team that everybody was claiming a national championship contender, clemson. They lost their second game, you know, and they lost to georg. I mean, they lost, yeah, week one to LSU, who's solid right now? Clemson, notre Dame 0-2. Lost week one by three points to Miami and then week three to Texas by one. They've lost two games by four combined points.
Graham:But they played pretty big programs, you think. And then week three to Texas by one.
Scott:They've lost two games by four combined points, but they played pretty big programs, you think. Well, that's my point, I mean, you think I mean a lot better programs than Penn State's been playing. I mean they've been playing Division III junior college blind teams for the first three weeks. Oh, let's play Villanova. Oh, that sounds like a barn burner. Who did Michigan play the first week? We actually had a good game. I forgot who. We played week one and then we played week two at Oklahoma and then yesterday we finally got our Division III blind team. We got to play Central Michigan or whatever, but at least we played two good opponents. But we'll see what happens in a couple weeks because y'all, I think I don't know if y'all go to oregon or you host oregon your next game. I don't know where the game is, but it's going to be solid. Um dude, georgia at tennessee. Everybody's thinking tennessee's got it. Oh, that poor kicker dude.
Scott:and I got, and I got a little small spot in my heart I don't know if I've ever talked about this for Tennessee oh just because my freshman year at Lewisburg Junior College, our first golf tournament my freshman year, was in Knoxville and my golf coach at Lewisburg played offensive guard for Tennessee and so we literally drove there on Saturday morning and he got us tickets to the Saturday night game, tennessee hosting UCLA 8 o'clock kickoff. It was sick and I was talking to TP about it last night. All I remember from Knoxville was my God, why don't they have this kind of women at every university?
Graham:You apparently haven't been to ASU, have you?
Scott:Dude, top 10 women in college universities. Oh, I see tennessee have made top five, but anyhow, the day after the game, sunday morning, we had a tour of neiland stadium. I got to walk around in the checkerboard end zones. It was sick, it was a good time. Yeah, that's why I always have this little. I mean the game I was at, I was looking it up last night. It was Peyton Manning's junior season at Tennessee. Yeah, it was sick, dude, but I was like, oh my God, are they finally going to do it? Are they finally going to do it? And then that kicker oh, you could tell before he even got on the field they're showing his mom and his mom's like shitting herself. And oh, dude, it was awful, bro, it was bad.
Graham:It was bad. The football fraternity house was getting everything ready for him. They were putting up the banners, they were setting off a special room for him, they got the girls ready for him and they're like bro, all you got to do is make it. That dude would have been the king of the town. They haven't beat Georgia in eight years now.
Scott:Eight years. I think it was what they said, yeah, and then he misses that when the game goes to overtime. It felt like two seconds later he's having to kick again in overtime same kick I'm like, oh my god, oh, my god, oh my god. This poor kid, oh, but he made it. And then, we all know, georgia scored a touchdown. But oh, he's. But hey, both of those teams are going to be in the playoffs yeah 100. I think tennessee's better than they were last year I 100 agree.
Graham:Yeah, I'm now with the playoffs. Now, now that it's 25 26, how many teams are we letting in now?
Scott:same thing, same thing. Yeah, they haven't changed it yet, but you know it was wild. And then real quick, I gotta say old dominion at virginia tech. You know, old dominion's a local university here in my hometown, norfolk, where my boy heineke was, where my boy bobby water coached to bring the football program back. Dude went into virginia tech, buckeye text me before the game. He's like what do you think? You think old dominion's gonna win? I'm like they going to definitely cover it. We're getting five and a half Dude.
Scott:Not only did they cover, they had that stadium which has probably possibly the greatest atmosphere pregame to a college football game in the country when they come out of the tunnel when they're playing. Inner sandman in that place was going buzzer, going crazy. Right stadium was emptied out at halftime. Emptied out, gone, gone. Not only that, they beat him so bad, they fired their coach today. He gone, he gone. And once again, penn State defensive coordinator should have never hired him. The Old Dominion coach coached with him at Penn State. Ricky Ronnie was Penn State's offensive coordinator, dude.
Scott:But the crazy thing is I don't know if I even told you about this earlier it's pretty wild. This is the end of the home and home with Virginia Tech, because Virginia Tech are a bunch of whatever and they canceled the contract, had to buy out Old Dominion. They had a contract going through 2030, and they got out of it. So last night Virginia Tech paid ODU 400 grand to play in Blatsburg. The Monarchs just beat them 45 to 26. Odu now has three all-time upsets over power conference opponents all against Virginia Tech. Sounding good? All-time upsets over power conference opponents all against virginia tech is that any good? And let's just think about this. Virginia tech used to be a nationally ranked team, every year a top 10. Ever since frank beamer left, they've been garbage. Yeah and dude, it's time like my dad and I were talking about last night Frank Beamer. You know all the athletes that have come out of the Hampton roads area where I live. That's where he, that's where he's made his money. Dude was the Hampton roads area and recruiting. He ain't winning this area anymore.
Graham:Yeah, but to be fair with the NIL and transfer, do you need to?
Scott:you got to do something.
Graham:No, I mean like, I agree. I mean it's just, it's a different way to play, to coach the game, coach the game, but it's a different way to construct a team now, especially since there's you know, you don't have to sit out a year when you transfer, and all that stuff. It's just exactly which, I think, just I want to say, dilutes the college game. But it's just like to know, like, how can you, how can you be a fan of a team when it's just like, oh, hey, this year I'm going to root for you, you, you and you. But even though you're not going to be in the NFL next year, you're just going to go to that school, that school, that school and that school, and I'm going to have eight new players I need to root for. I mean, it's good for college football in the sense that you're not going to have the same six teams always. Be good, you're giving other teams a chance. Hey, texas A&M. There you go.
Scott:Yeah, but dude, think about this. This dude, old Dominion's quarterback, colton Joseph. He's a true sophomore for Old Dominion. Okay, threw for 276 yards touchdowns he gone. He ain't gonna be there next year. This dude's a stud and he's gonna be post because of the nil he gone. Wow, it's like I don't know, but what are you wowing? Are you wowing? But what are you wowing? Are you wowing what I said? Are you wowing about the game? I haven't even looked at it, except for stupid game. It's 15 to six.
Graham:The game. Falcons had them fourth and inches on what I think they're on the 11 yard line and they got them to jump off sides. Mind you, it's fourth and inches and you're running. Oh, he jumped. You're not, you're not doing a quarterback sneak, you're not doing it. Not, you know, and I form, you're running, you got, you're running back six yards back. What, dude? I mean that first down, knock on wood here. You know they have no timeouts left.
Graham:Yeah, because they're trying to stop them. They're down nine. They're down two scores with four minutes left. They got to do something. They're trying to hold them to three here, because if they hold them to three it's still a two-possession game. They score a touchdown, it's over.
Scott:Yeah, anyhow, let's jump in Sunday slate of football. This morning Dallas Giants game. Oh, dude, I had Cowboys in a Survivor League. I know you did, I know Audrey did, whew, wow.
Graham:So leading up to today go, we talk almost every day the bets we put in the survivors. We talk about everything out here.
Graham:Wow, not even the guy that's been taking them the whole way down. The whole game, bijan, the whole game. Look, if there was a few things that we were confident on, and not just us, we went to the you know net circus survivor right and who? They picked the top three teams to take cowboys, baltimore and uh, arizona with how the giants played last week and Arizona With how the Giants played last week. I'm watching this game and I'm like what the hell is happening right now? You and I both thought I mean I don't want to say that the Cowboys are going to run away with it, but it's like DraftKings when you get those no sweat bets. That's kind of what it felt like. All right, just Dak, go out there, sling the ball around, don't throw it, don't give it to the other team. Run the ball Should be good. Russell Wilson was just like hey, man, it ain't over for me, I can still sling the rock. And Malik Naperson.
Scott:And by slinging the rock, thank you. I mean 450 passing yards, and hey, you know that guy Malik Neighbors 167 yards, two tutties Wondell Robinson 142 yards and a tutty.
Graham:And what did I say during the week?
Scott:I said we picked up this guy, Pick wandell robinson.
Graham:he's injured he's injured yeah, yeah, eight for 142 and a tutty yeah, but a large chunk of that was on like a 40 yard td, to be fair.
Scott:Okay, so he had 142 receiving yards, so 40 of them were on one reception.
Graham:Okay, I'm just saying what about the other hundo. I'm just saying yeah, but he's only valuable if Russ does that.
Scott:He was valuable last year with Danny Dimes. And what's the other dude's name? Tavita Tommy, yeah.
Graham:Hey, sometimes you're a believer and sometimes you're not. I wasn't, and what happened was.
Scott:Hey, whatever, it doesn't matter. We survived, we got the win. Brandon, what's the dude's name? The kicker? Hey, whatever, it doesn't matter we survived. We got the win. Brandon, what's his? Name the kicker, audrey. Yeah, aubrey, aubrey, 60-something field goal to tie.
Graham:Yeah, bro, there was like 17 points in the last three minutes of the game.
Scott:And then all I'm thinking in overtime is oh my God, they're going to fucking tie and I'm still going to get eliminated because they're going to tie. If you tie, you're gone that overtime period. Hey, no, you win, no, you win, no, you win, no, you win.
Graham:I bro, I was the 60 plus yarder to take him to overtime. You know, yeah, they're even saying now it's just like, if the conditions are good, kickers nowadays like they have so much leg and practice now that it's like it's not like 20 years ago where it was like, oh, you got to kick a 52 yarder. I don't know if we should do this now. Now there's certain kickers in perfect conditions Did you see some of the games today with kickers.
Scott:Yeah, aka Broncos. Don't care. I mean don't care. Did your boy not call it though Colts winning? Like, did I not call it at the beginning Colts winning? Did I not call it at the beginning of the week, did I not? You're welcome. To be fair, I did, I know I did.
Graham:Are they technically the winners 100%?
Scott:Oh, you're going to call some fucking penalty bullshit. No, did he break the rules of the NFL by touching the center? 100% he did.
Graham:There's a difference between touching them and I mean the true essence of the rule. Look, I'm not defending the Broncos, I'm just saying the fact that it came down to that and the guy missed it horribly. There's wide right and then there's where the bleep are you aiming. But yeah, I mean it got sucked out and look, I ain't mad at it because that I had Colts in a parlay, so I was just like you know what, Pull it out, and God's truth, thank you very much. So it worked out, Dude. After two weeks you're telling me the Colts are 2-0, leading their division. Anyone see that coming?
Scott:For the first time since 2009. Damn. Dude, danny Dimes. Change of scenery, bro. We talked about it last week. Talked about it last week Baker Mayfield, sam Darnold. Change up their scenery. Give my guy some weapons. Look what happens.
Graham:Speaking of changing scenery, hawkinson, you're going to change scenery from a starting lineup to the bench because you are a bum. Is that his fault? No, it's obviously the quarterback's fault. But I'm just saying I don't know why. I'm the idiot that's keep putting him in my starting lineup Like this dude, sheesh. Putting him in my starting lineup like this dude, sheesh. Thanks, oh man, uh, dude. That game, to be honest, was some of the most. The cowboys giants game was one of the more exciting games of the day, to be perfectly honest with you 100 uh mean, as I'm looking at all the other scores that Bengals-Jaguars game turned into something I mean shouldn't it.
Scott:Yeah, it killed me in a parlay, but because I was calling that one too, jaguars beating the Bengals.
Graham:And I was telling you, I'm like I don't know what you're seeing, bro. I'm like I'm and here's the worst part- oh, get Jefferson.
Scott:Oh, I just threw a pick.
Graham:The worst part for me is this what do I always say? Football team first, now this year, 100% Bet. Second, then fantasy right. 100%, right, right, 100% Bet. Second, then fantasy right 100%. Right, right Now. That being said, as a Steeler fan, I should be rooting against the Bengals, but when I got money on the line, I'm like maybe you should come back and get this tutty.
Scott:I mean dude. They scored with 18 seconds left to win the game.
Graham:On a QB sneak at the goal line.
Scott:And by QB sneak. We're not even talking about Burrow. Yeah dude, we're talking about Browning.
Graham:And look, I'm kind of optimistic that when Burrow went down, browning's been there long enough, he has enough rapport. Look, my guy chase still did what he needed to do he did he did praise the lord because I needed a dub this week. So I still feel confident with him moving forward until Burrow comes back. But hey, turf toe is no joke. Everyone's like oh a turf toe, be a man.
Scott:Dude, think about try walking without your big toe. People don't realize. Try having balance.
Graham:Absolutely.
Scott:Without your big toe.
Graham:It's impossible.
Scott:TP sent me a text. He goes turf toe. Really, is it that bad? I'm like dude, don't you remember back in the chargers days gates and lt battled it? Yeah, it's no joke. And now homeboy pulled ligaments in that toe. Yeah, he's like two to three months months or weeks?
Graham:Months? Oh, I thought it was weeks.
Scott:Oh shit, no, he's having surgery, bro. They're saying December return.
Graham:Like why come back at that point? If you're out of it, what's the point of him coming back?
Scott:It's wild, wild. But dude the Bengals, gee, I don't need crickets, dude they. Finally they're two and oh, you know they were all like, oh, we gotta start fast. We gotta start fast because you know what they did last year they scored more points than anybody on offense and didn't make the playoffs right and started off slow. Now they've started off fast. Two and oh, and they just lost their quarterback.
Graham:Yeah, and something just thinking about it for fantasy purposes, chase Brown being taken in what? As early as the second round? Third For sure, but usually the second round. What's his value moving forward? You're telling me teams aren't going to stack the box.
Scott:You still got to respect what's his nuts.
Graham:Oh for sure, Higgins and Chase for sure.
Scott:You still got to respect them. I mean, we all saw who was throwing the ball at Justin Jefferson for the last three years.
Graham:Touche, touche.
Scott:Yeah, you say that, but whatfferson done the last two weeks. That's because his offensive line couldn't block me. I mean mccarthy got sacked 37 times before halftime tonight, yeah, in fact, I mean I just want to look and see how many times he's gotten sacked, because it's a shit ton it's a lot. It is definitely a lot two minutes left in the game. The falcons d has six sacks insane now.
Graham:but in my part wasterdam is like I was surprised that the falcons I mean I get it, it's the home, but the fact that they were plus money, I thought they were the better team.
Scott:I really did. They played well last week.
Graham:That's what I'm saying. I'm like they did. I mean that's why, dude, I took them straight up and I took them with the points. I just. I mean I also took them with the tease that I don't even need the tease.
Scott:I mean they played well last week against Tampa. Tampa won the division right Last year.
Graham:They should have won the game against Tampa last week. They didn't Should have, but hey.
Scott:But anyhow, moving right along Game, I know you've been trying not to talk about no, I, your boys you haven't even mentioned them. I'm like man, grandma hasn't even mentioned this yet. Wow, in the notes. I'm like we literally went straight to the Broncos Colts skipped over the Steelers' home opener against Seattle.
Scott:Dude, your rookie, running back from Iowa, like really, not only did he make the dumbest play I've ever seen in my life, but he crashed fantasy football platforms across the country because of the dumbest play you've ever seen. I didn't see it live because I got on the red zone and I get a text from bucky. He's like, dude, seahawks just scored a touchdown on special teams. It's not giving me credit for it. I literally go on there and look and then Dan and everybody in our San Diego league, they're like, yeah, it's bullshit, because the only special teams touchdown they normally give is for a kickoff return or a punt return. Yeah, not a kickoff touchdown where the ball goes through homeboy's arms and he decides he's just going to run to the sideline because he thinks it's going out of the end of the end zone. And I will say this before you even get into your rant. Watching it over and over and over. I'm still not 100% convinced that Seattle possessed that ball before he went out of the end zone. He did.
Announcer:He did. I mean, I don't want to talk negatively on it Anyhow.
Scott:Dude. You know Anyhow Dude, the Seahawks head coach, was one of the best defensive coordinators in the NFL for the Ravens Went to Seattle.
Graham:Seattle has a squad. Believe me 100%, I'm not talking shit on the Seahawks at all. This was a game.
Scott:I know you're not and listen to this. The NFC West standings after two weeks Niners 2-0, cardinals 2-0, rams 2-0, seattle 1-1. If you would have told me, dude, you could see that coming though you could see that coming matchups.
Graham:It's early, you know.
Scott:Yeah, it is what it is but anyhow, I'll let you get into your steelers real quick I home opener.
Graham:I thought our run game looked better than it did last week. But look it. All coaches say next man up and look. I don't even want to say like that's. I don't want to start off with excuses but, here we go.
Graham:Hey, we held them against the run pretty well in the first half and the second half they pretty much ran all over the place. I think my biggest surprise is, while I'm watching this game, be perfectly honest, who was the? I mean, there was a couple of guys, but there was one guy in particular all off season especially as we're talking fantasy and I'm talking wide receivers and the worst part about this is because he was on my team last year. There was one guy specifically that I was like there is no way I'm touching him with a 10 foot pole and folks in Jigba JSM, you don't know where he's going to play he only went 8 for 103 today, cooper Cup 7 for 90 exactly, and the thing was and three today, cooper Cup, seven for 90.
Graham:Exactly. And the thing was the defense was playing well but there was just too many times that they converted like a third and 15, a third and nine, a third and seven. You know, they just broke the defenses back like we had them dead to rights and then they make a play. I get it, it is what it is. Look, we're already down Jerry Porter Jr. We were already down Harmon. We're down a couple other players.
Graham:Dude, we lost three guys on defense during the game. We're playing guys, aka rookies and second year guys From the second quarter on. Jack Sawyer and Yaya Black Played pretty much the entire game. We lost Loudermilk, our linebacker. We lost why his name is blanking me right now Our stud, second Pass rusher. We lost him too. I get it the next man up, but how many times do I have to tell you? You can say next man up as long as you want, but the guys that are coming in Are not at the same quality as the guys that went out. Like when you lose studs, what? What do you expect to happen? I mean, jalen Ramsey looked good today. He had to play corner today because we lost another guy. It's just like we lost four guys on defense. This game, it's just. And then when you're in a close game, turnovers can't happen, right, they just can't happen.
Scott:Darnold turned it over twice, had two picks.
Graham:The only reason we were in the game was because of that. If you saw the stats at halftime, I think Rodgers had like 40 passing yards. He had two picks too, yeah.
Graham:Yeah, and that's another thing, because Rodgers was all upset about it the pick that he threw in the end zone which, by the way, is the second pick he's ever thrown in the end zone since, like I think they said, his rookie year, or his second third. It was very early on in his career, that pick, because Austin was running it out in the end zone. But then he ran out of room and came back, just happened to be in the same vicinity as Friermuth and that's where he was throwing the ball low and away and Friermuth was diving to catch it. But, you know, homeboy was right and Colin Ofton was in front of him. But Homeboy was right and Collin Offsen was in front of him, thought it could be going to him. So he made a play on the ball, missed it, bobbled it and the defense got it. You take away that, even if we don't get the touchdown, that's three points Right. And then they get the ball, they score, and then the next play is the Caleb Johnson mistake. So if the defense is keeping us in the game and we're, you know, slowly, methodically, taking the ball down the field, we're doing all right. You can't have those mistakes. And then also revenge game for DK. I get that, bro.
Graham:He's also another wide receiver that has all the hype, but also he's been known to have drops. He had two drops in this game that were like, bro, they were in your hands. I get it. It's the NFL, you're expected to make every catch. I mean, if it's difficult, I mean we'll give you exceptions. But like, there's certain times where it's just like, hey, man, this is the NFL. Like we paid you, pittsburgh doesn't pay wide receivers. I mean they did pay AB, but like it is what it is.
Scott:But hey, they paid DK and he got a tutty against his old team yeah, but did you see the play though?
Graham:no, yeah, his tutty was a basically a two yard touchdown. They were on the two yard line and Deke and Rogers just basically they moved the receiver over and he basically just had a one-on-one jump ball. Okay, it wasn't like I mean, hey, good for him, exciting I mean, he's still finished with decent fantasy numbers, but like DK, really hasn't shown us anything. Granted, it's only week two, I get it. But, that being said, when that play happened and it went behind Caleb Johnson, you gotta know the rules. And look, the announcer said it, which, by the way, I don't know if I text this to you how this was the game that was done on Fox blows my mind. But listening and I got no beef with this guy, but listening to Mark Sanchez for three and a half hours, I'm going to say it. You heard it here first. I would, a hundred thousand percent would rather listen to Collinsworth, joe Buck and in, tori Aikman. A hundred percent.
Scott:Well, of course you'd rather listen to Collinsworth, because if you're listening to Collinsworth, that means my girl, melissa Starks, on the sidelines.
Graham:You're unbelievable why.
Scott:Because I spit facts. Yeah, that's exactly why yeah. Oh man, we're going to lose in San Diego League. We're going to go 0-2. Both games.
Graham:I mean really yeah, well, that's a good thing, we started off 2-0. Well, I mean it doesn't help when, as you were saying, Henry has the fumble. He didn't even get in the end zone, right?
Scott:No, he had 23 rushing yards. Sutton had one reception for six yards.
Graham:Yeah, what's going on with that?
Scott:I don't know Some dude named Franklin for the Broncos number 11.
Graham:I've heard good things out of him.
Scott:He played at Oregon with Bo Nix. I'd like to know what that motherfucker had today, because that dude and whatever.
Graham:Yeah, but like that being well, I'd say, who would we start over him? But like that being well, I'd say who would we start over him? But when you see Wendell Robinson on the bench for 29 and Stevenson with 21, I just I feel you, yeah, I mean, let's see. It's like Sutton's the number one. Like are we not playing him Broncos?
Scott:Franklin eight for 89 and a touchdown. Sims had two for 24 and a touchdown.
Graham:I don't know, Are we completely done? Oh dude, we got a chance.
Scott:Yeah, we still got two quarterbacks and a day-to-day they need to have games Yep, games Yep.
Scott:Games, yep, but anyhow, moving right along, we kind of talked about the Broncos and the Colts. We don't even need to talk about that, something I texted you earlier as I'm watching the Cardinals and the Panthers on Red Zone. I'm literally sitting here with Christian and we're just watching the game. Kellen's out with his buddies. He was at the movie and I'm like you know my mind how it wanders. I'm like dude, I need to find this stat. This could be the all-time NFL record for combined height of NFL starting quarterbacks between Kyler Murray and Young, like shortest height, by the way. And I look up their height, dude, they're both 5'10". Kristen looks at me and she goes. I can't believe. You just said that. That is hilarious, dude. Cardinals are 2-0. Yeah, and Marvin Harrison Jr had one more reception than I did today.
Graham:Dude, game script is everything I mean speaking of game script, a game that we didn't even talk about, with kind of two of the bottom level teams, although one of those two teams was projected to be finished second in the AFC East. Did you think the Patriots and Dolphins was going to be a 33-27 game?
Scott:No, not watching that shit, but did you see when the Dolphins returned the punt for a touchdown? And after they returned the punt for a touchdown, the very next kickoff, gibson returned the kickoff for a tutty? Yeah, it was sick Back-to-back plays, thanks for playing. And Vrabel is on the sideline sprinting down the sideline with Gibson and there's video of it. It's like damn okay, I see you, boy. I see you. Did you see? On a side note, did you see Cam Ward's first touchdown pass? Yeah.
Scott:Dude he's going to be legit Running around, running around, then throws across his body, across the field, the one thing that everybody tells you not to do. And it was a dime.
Graham:Yeah, it was sick, but anyhow you know, just quick, looking at these scores I know we already, we already talked about the game Just look at the scores. Patriots and chiefs they did just play the defending champs and only lost by three. You know they, yeah. Chiefs they did just play the defending champs and only lost by three. You know they, the chiefs, yeah, they kept it close. Obviously, getting tyreek would definitely help, I mean I just think like they need to get their guys back.
Graham:They need to be healthy. I mean, I think, at home, though yeah, that's the yeah, I'm just that's the thing my point saying that was it's not as of dire straits, even though they are oh and two, but you know they had. Look, they had two tough games, started with the chargers and then played the chiefs, and by the chiefs I mean the Eagles.
Scott:Jalen Hurts only had 101 passing yards.
Graham:Yeah, Trust me.
Scott:If it wasn't for the tush push, my fantasy score would have been geez Dude, did you see the thing I said to you on Instagram when Chris Jones was talking shit to Hurts and Hurts was like you didn't even have 100 yards and Hurts was like suck up't even have 100 yards and Hurts was like suck up. We won the game. Right, that's who?
Graham:the Eagles are Speaking of not getting 100 yards. Did you notice? In our CBS League, badger Badger didn't even. Not only did he not eclipse 100 points, he didn't even eclipse 90.
Scott:Dude, I don't even want to talk about that league because I'm about to go 0-4. Okay, I have 48.9 points at this moment, right now, wait what. I have a lot of people playing tomorrow.
Graham:Oh okay, yeah, that's different, that's different.
Scott:But still.
Graham:Hey, no fire cells. It's still early, no fire cells. And if that is the case, me first. I want first dibs, I mean what's Badger's name? Short Bus. Oh, he's got nobody left too. No, he's done, done yeah. But to be fair, justin Fields 3 too. No, he's done, done yeah. But to be fair, justin Fields 3.9. After what he did last week, brees Hall 5.8. And he got hurt.
Scott:Yeah, and Fields left the game hurt. I'm playing him in ESPN too. I'm up 147 to 121, but I still got Herbert. Well, how about this.
Graham:We start three wide receivers. If I would have told you that aj brown, justin jefferson and drake london would have given you a total of 23 points, what would you have said? Sorry, yeah, you know what I mean. Mark andrews 1.4. At least drake may gave. At least Drake May gave him 26.1. Dude.
Scott:Drake May was out there running today. Yeah, he was. I loved it. Yes, he was, but anyhow, sunday night game's over. Falcons won. We got a doubleheader tomorrow night on Monday Night Football.
Graham:Predictions.
Scott:Let's go. Your boy is not very happy about the Chargers playing at 10 pm Eastern time. If you could have heard my dad bitching and moaning about it earlier today, I'm like Dad. We've been talking about this for months. Why are you so pissed off all of a sudden, like you knew it was coming.
Graham:T-Bone. It sucks. You're retired. I know you wake up at five in the morning like every old person that's 80 years old. I get that. I'm just saying take a power nap during the day few hours, and be refreshed, ready to go, just no chance he'll watch.
Scott:He'll watch, he'll watch the beginning of the game and we'll be texting and then it'll be like radio silence. Then he'll get up in the middle of the night to go take a leak and then he'll respond to all my texts and be like oh shit, let's go bolts, or you know this or that so what you're saying is we I need to be be texting him, keeping him on his toes.
Graham:Nothing's going to keep him awake. Come on, t-bone, not happening, not happening.
Scott:Anyhow we got Tampa Houston. It starts at 7 o'clock Eastern 4 o'clock your time. Love it. Yeah, and then our game starts at 10 o'clock. What do you?
Graham:like in those games.
Scott:I don't understand why everybody's giving Houston so much credit after the way they looked like absolute dog shit last week. But you know I don't know. That's why Vegas makes money and I lose it to them, except for the last two weeks.
Scott:Motherfucker, I don't know. I'm a believer in Baker Mayfield. Tp called me out and said I had a man crush on him because he's on every one of my fantasy teams. I like their weapons, I like their defense. I mean, houston does have some weapons, dude, but their offensive line Can't lock a series Me or you.
Scott:Yeah, I mean they trade one of the top five left tackles in the league to Washington. I don't know. I mean, I don't know. I mean I like Tampa, I like Tampa to win the game. And then we got my Chargers playing in Vegas On the road week two. We just had a lot of time off. You know, going to Brazil on last Friday or whatever it was, and then going to Vegas, you know, short trip, half-hour flight, I don't know. Dude, bowers is going to play, which is fine. I don't care about Bowers.
Scott:The main thing is, you know, with Pipkins at right tackle, how do you protect Herbie from Crosby? Last year, week one, joe Alt making his first start at right tackle, he pretty much laid the wood to Crosby, didn't allow pressure. Well, now that Alt's at left tackle, what side do you think Max Crosby Didn't allow pressure? Now that Alts had left tackle, what side do you think Max Crosby's going to line up on? Probably not Joe Alts' side. So you got Pipkins at right tackle. Will Disley, our blocking tight end, he's going to be on that right side of the line all night long helping Pipkins out.
Scott:I don't know, dude, I think we're going to be able to run the ball a lot easier against the Raiders. You know the Chiefs defensive line. I mean Chris Jones, I mean Hall of Famer duh, it's going to be easier to run the ball. And once again, everything I've read Harbaugh and Roman, allowing Herbie to throw the ball on early downs is a difference maker, dude. And our wide receiving corps went from one of the weakest in the league to one of our strengths. I mean, we got third in Keenan, we got Lede Day. I just I think we win the game, but I'm being a homer. But yeah, the Raiders beat the Patriots. Okay, that's great, don't care.
Scott:Geno played some ball, though. Yeah, not going to take anything away from him. Yeah, geno stood in the pocket, threw the ball. It sucks. Elijah Molden's not playing for us. It sucks. Perryman's not playing for us, but whatever, perryman's always injured, so we can deal with that. Uh, it comes down to derwin, bro, derwin playing against bowers. Is bowers really that healthy? Is he a decoy? You said it last night. I don't know. Look at quarterbacks. You know we just came off a high right where the league everybody was bashing Herbert, calling him a social media quarterback. He had one of his worst games ever against the Texans. The guy threw three interceptions in the regular season and then threw four in the playoff game against the Texans, and everybody's bashing him. My guy looked like he was different last week and, herbert, I trust that's all I can say. I mean my guy's hanging out with a hot supermodel now.
Scott:She's not a supermodel, what artist, whatever she is. She's a singer right.
Graham:Yeah, I mean she was a influencer first turn singer, but regardless whatever, whatever, Wait hold on. What's her name? Some beer? Oh my God, you don't even.
Scott:Amanda, amanda beer. Madison beers whatever beers are last name, so that's all I care about.
Graham:No beers, not B E R B E R. S.
Scott:Like I've drinking more than one beer tonight in this episode Plural, you're welcome. Exactly, exactly. So Chargers win. I'm going to go out and say 30-21.
Graham:I like it. I can understand. I don't want to say your hesitation, but look, you've been a Charger fan for a long time. I don't want to sound like, oh you know, I'm just so confident that this is going to happen. I just do the way they've been playing, the coaching, the players that they have. I'm not saying that the Chargers are going to confidently like smack the Raiders, but I'm not saying they're blowing them out. But I do think they get the dub. I my point. I guess what I'm really saying is.
Graham:I don't think it's going to come down to a fourth quarter. You know you need a field goal to win the game, like I think they win by a touchdown, or even if they could win by three, four, five, six, seven, but that's with the Raiders scoring at the end of the game. That is inconsequential. You know what I mean. Like on paper, the chargers have a better team and if the team shows up they should get the dub. I mean that's just the confident, and if the team shows up, kind of like how, if tampa shows up, like that I would like them to, then my parlays baby, let's go. Because, um, honestly, bro, what a great week too and I feel like we can't let this go. Your boy won a little money last night onto boxing in what was one of the biggest boxing matches in the last 10 years the Canelo Crawford fight last night, and I just want to point out what I think is your boy, as in me.
Scott:Yeah, you, yeah, yeah, oh yeah.
Graham:What else am I talking about? What I do think is hilarious?
Scott:The best part of this.
Graham:You didn't know.
Scott:I bet on this dude. And I had. No, I don't know boxing, I don't know UFC. I'm like I'm betting on this dude, he's the underdog. I didn't even know it was on Netflix and it was free. I'm talking to Graham on the phone. He's like dude, oh yeah, the fight's on it's on Netflix. I'm like, oh damn, let's go. Then. I'm watching the fight with Graham on speakerphone and his dad's sitting right next to him, yeah, and Graham's like texting me on the side going hey, you do realize my dad's right here, right with what you're saying. I was good, no, you were good. I mean I was good. I mean Papa Cohen, I was trying to give him some humor, did I not? I mean?
Graham:Yeah, I still think the best part. You're like, wait a minute, crawford's the black guy. And I was like, yeah, he is Jamal Crawford. Yeah, that's him. And you're like, oh, I didn't know that. And I'm like, wow, you really don't pay attention to boxing Dude, I don't give two shits, dude.
Scott:The best thing. And what did I tell you? He's from Omaha, nebraska. He had Omaha on the back of his shorts and I'm like guaranteed winner, him and Peyton Manning. Omaha, omaha. The end Only thing that sucked is I picked the win under 10 and a half rounds, so I had that was a single bet, and then I had Crawford as a winner plus money as an underdog, so I won that one. You know whatever, don't care yeah.
Graham:It made it interesting hey it was a great fight. I enjoyed it.
Scott:Speaking of making bets for the fun of it, did you see the golf bet that I made that ended up winning? Yeah, I saw it. Dude.
Graham:It doesn't make me happy. Why? Because I'm in Nevada and I can't bet on DraftKings and I can't because I'm in Nevada and I can't bet on DraftKings and I can't get not no sub bets, but I can't dude. They don't. Let me bet parlays on certain things, like the fact that I can't parlay the golf picks, the fact that there's the what do they call it?
Scott:The ghost pick, where, if you, lose one of your yeah, a parlay by one leg.
Graham:By one leg. I don't get that. Do you know how many parlays I lose by one leg?
Scott:Yeah, I lost one today thanks to your Steelers. Appreciate it.
Graham:You're welcome. Do you think I was excited about it?
Scott:That's why I told you to cash out on your one, because if the Chargers lose tomorrow night, all I'm going to hear is your goddamn Chargers.
Graham:The problem is they're not giving me a cash out. I have no choice. Wonderful, I got no choice.
Scott:Wonderful. Anyhow, folks. Week two we got Monday night doubleheader. Your boy is going to be up late tomorrow night. Tuesday morning at work is not going to be cool.
Graham:What do you got going on at work on Tuesday? The look on his face, folks. He just gives me the death stare. I don't even want to get into that.
Scott:I don't even want to get into it. I tried to take Tuesday off and my assistant is doing his playing ability test, his PAT. Oh, okay. On Tuesday, and so I have to be there for the ladies clinic at one o'clock and I'm like really bro, Really he got you. Yeah, if you could have just passed this goddamn thing by now, it would all be good. But anyhow, graham, sorry your Steelers lost. At least you're going to win some bets. At least you're going to win some fantasy games.
Graham:Knock on wood. Knock on wood.
Scott:I won some bets. All my fantasy teams suck ass, so at least I still have the hope of the Chargers tomorrow night. Hey, you got survivor picks. Survivor's still clicking, hey, hey. And he's bitter too, because a lot of his entries in his league were the Steelers.
Graham:No, are you serious?
Scott:Yeah, I texted him the other night and I'm like what are your thoughts on Survivor? He goes 100% Steelers and I looked at it.
Graham:I didn't see how many, but All right, we can talk more about that off air Wow.
Scott:Yeah, anyhow, audrey, sorry you had to stress, you know. Sorry your Redskins got beat the other night. They're going to be okay. They're going to be okay. They're going to be all right. Oh, something I mentioned earlier, somebody that's close to my heart, austin Eckler. Yeah, career may be over. Oh, I hate saying it, but I mean Undrafted player from, I think, northern Colorado that made the team with the Chargers back in the day, signed with Washington last year as a free agent to the Achilles. Ugh, I hate seeing it.
Graham:Speaking of the Commanders, they host the Raiders next week. Wow, that could be a game.
Scott:I'm scared about Scary Terry the Raiders next week. Well, that could be a game, I'm scared about Scary Terry Dude.
Graham:He hasn't shown up. He showed up a week before the season started. They'll get it together. I'm not worried about it. They're just starting off slow. It is what it is. Look, they're not going to be the one seed, the two seed. They'll make the playoffs. They'll get in as a wild card and they just got to make damage. Then I mean it's the NFL Make the playoffs and then everything resets. You got to be good at the end. Look, as you were saying, the Saints, what's the point of going 2-0? Yeah, you know what I mean. So have that positivity with your fantasy football teams.
