If your bet wins when you bet just five bucks only on draft Kings, the crown is yours today is Monday, November 18th. Week 11. And let me be the first to wish a congratulations to the Toronto Argonauts in the great and the great car in the great car. We start in Pittsburgh where you can throw out the record books when these two teams play.

Many people think you can't win a football game without getting in the end zone. But Boswell actually you can as Chris scored six times for the Steelers. La Marvellis became unremarkable on Sunday as a Steelers defense bottle them up forcing fumbles on likely in Henry likely Henry. That's what Tiffany Goma said when asked who smashed a holder back wall.

The Steelers put a stranglehold. Choke me daddy on the AFC North Steelers 18 Raven 16. Park. We go to Michigan get up.

Everybody's going to score to Edd's get down. Jameson says hold my ID. Got to lose a coach in Detroit. Proxity as the Lions punk the Jags and even proc right got it on the action with a touchdown.

Doctor says I need a Macchiatomy as Jones couldn't help the broken spine of the Jaguars and I haven't seen anyone miss Lawrence since Darren Aronofsky. Don't Peterson is looking less like well man and more like fail man as it's only a matter of time before he's fired. Now that's funny. Lions 56.

Then Jaguar. Lions 52. The Jaguars six down in Miami where it's a John New World Order has smith scored twice and had over 100 yards receiving through a tough start to the season Mike McDaniel told fans that if you don't love me now you'll never love me again. I can still hear you saying you will never break a chain as Devon slayed the Fleetwood on the Raiders defense all afternoon long as for the Raiders their season has boiled down to whether or not Brock to a could keep spitting on that thing as a rookie tight end had another career day.

Dolphins 34 Raiders. Those writers 19 lot of rocks this week. Boom a lot of rocks a lot of rocks a lot of rocks in Nashville Sam Donald Schwarzenegger said I'm back Nick Westbrook and Kenny Rogers says you got to know where to hold on know where to scallum know where to walk away. No one to run 99 yards far score Brian superchyla and allistic Titans are atrocious as Tennessee remains the chimney sweep of the AFT South but a spoonful of draft picks hope it's a losing go down the Vikings 23 the Titans 13 in Chicago where the bears play the Packers and lost again because the bears never beat the Packers and life is meaningless and Mike Tyson was right that there's no such thing as legacy because we all die in the end also Carl Brooks Burke got wild on the game winning field goal blocking it with his hand.

Remember that show I used to jerk off to it but doesn't matter because we're all going to die one day Packers 20 bears 19. We had to Fox world with Henry Lockwood on the scene in New England Drake may flower continued his stellar rookie campaign in the first quarter with a passing touchdown to Kendrick. Born to me. Methu and Stafford responded with a touchdown of his own to Cooper Kapow.

Grand Chief at Fort Fumble on a play that was actually a talk rule whatever got the ball back in the red zone. Pukinikou was looking absolutely fire in the end zone. So Stafford rewarded with a touchdown of his own the past fall back valently in the fourth quarter but not even a touchdown from offensive lineman Jeff via Zinfadarian low was enough and the Rams win 28 22 was that like name McQueen Henry Wow. All right.

We had to stick it in the AFC East memes. In MetLife Stadium where Anthony Soprano Richardson finished off the big pussy which is the jet ski. Spoiler boom. Metaworld Breeze calls Mouse at the metal lands as he scored two touchdowns of his own.

Drinking Josh down said to the just defenders. Whoa. Just take it easy man. As he scored a touchdown as far as Aaron Rodgers, it was time to quit.

He paid the piper with a sack and put an end to the this game and the jet season called 28 gets points out. They shot him on the boat boom. No swimmers didn't drink with the first way. Fetterson Buffalo where the bills were flocking their bodies as scored a Samuel shot a lot of legs and Khalil Shakira Shakira said these hips don't lie as he went what and what and some spread on the chief's defense.

Xavier. We are not worthy had chief fans saying came on gorth after our first half score. The game was back and forth back and forth as Noah 50 Shades of Grey had Josh Allen feel like he was back in bondage after a second touchdown. But the bills finally got their release shooting a massive Buffalo and a win.

No one circles a wagon like the bubble bills bill starting that drinks 21. Standing on the corner, James Winston, Kaya, hope that such a fine sight to see. He's throwing seeds against his old team revenge against new Orleans. The gumbo swivel.

You got a ball. It. Rizzy. I'm like a pregame.

The Saints go marching 35 14. And that is the fastest two minutes from week 11 in the NFL and is brought to you by our friends at Chevy. There's a reason we've never done a Mount Rushmore pickup trucks and that's because for part of my take, there's only one pickup truck, the Chevy Silverado. Why is that Silverado is a partner?

A partner you can depend on. We've all spent time driving and using the Silverado for all kinds of part of my take jobs, adventures of other shenanigans. Silverado has been our ride for a cross country trip to the Super Bowl. Silverado helped us dig the biggest hole ever in the state of Ohio last year.

Great week. Silverado helped us give fullbacks of recognition they deserve with the Lomann Award in this year. Silverado was out West with us for our latest great week. Silverado brings the grit to legendary grit paired with modern truck tech inside and out massive screens up to eight cameras with 14 different views help make driving, towing and parking all easier.

We love the bold blacked out look of the new Silverado HD trail boss. So head on over to Chevy.com, build your own Silverado or Silverado HD and check out all the current offers on Silverado Discover World of Strength and Capability, all behind the wheel of our favorite truck, the Chevy Silverado. Okay. Week 11 in the books.

We have some of the football that we'll talk about at the end that is about to start. We're going to tape some of this early, but week 11 in the books, I feel like we're officially at the point where there are some teams that we can just stop paying attention to and that came clear this week, specifically the Jaguar. Well, which things about the Jaguars is you can stop paying attention to them because they're relevant and the NFL makes perfect sense sometimes. However, we might have to start paying attention to the Jaguars again, because they're probably going to have an interim coach.

Yeah, we'll have to see how the interim head coach of these fat or fun or passion. You want to look at their coaching staff right down predict who it should be? It's not going to be their defensive coordinator. No.

You know what? Let Tony Conduit. Yeah, let's let Tony Conduit on the sideline. Let's wait.

Let's wait till we get to the Jaguars lines. Let's get into the games. We'll start with the most important game from Sunday and it was Steelers 18, Ravens 16, exactly how you expected a Steelers Ravens game to go. Said this on Friday.

All they do is play close games. All you got to do is take the underdog and the Steelers win the game with six field goals, never getting into the end zone. Not the best game from Russell Wilson, but I think this was the game that was like, damn, the Steelers need to be taken very much for real because their defense just bottled up a very, very explosive Ravens offense. And they now have a two game lead in the AFC North and they are in play for a one seed as well because the Chiefs lost.

So the Steelers, like you had, I actually think if you went in this game and you told and you said that Russell Wilson was going to play like that, I would say the Steelers had no chance because it was all kind of short underneath. He had that one really nice pass to George Pickens, but when he was pressured, he was sacked a bunch of times through an interest, the one of the worst interceptions in the end zone, but the Steelers defense did it. Yeah, the Steelers defense, they take away the long ball. They're like, we'll give you stuff underneath and really, I feel like this game came down to a couple of things.

One was the Derrick Henry fumble. Yeah. On the very first drive, one of the first plays of the game that added up with the missed field goals by Justin Tucker, he might actually be bad who now should either fake an injury and be like, yeah, I've been dealing with this since like week two. I don't know, just say that you've had a hamstring problem that's gotten worse.

Yeah. Or say that you've got like the measles, but there's something wrong with Justin Tucker. And we've been calling him washed. I think ever since it might have been 2017 when he missed the extra point against the Saints.

Yeah, it's how this show goes. We're very rarely right. The only times we're right, it usually is because we joke about something and then enough time elapsed is that it becomes right because we were the first that Justin Tucker has washed as a joke. And now I think he legit might be washed.

He's 30th in the NFL in terms of accuracy to show in kickers. He also lost. He's no longer the most accurate kicker of all time. So he's in a battle by percentage points.

It's basically like tallying votes. Is that a coup? I think I think California still has like a million votes still left to go. No, it's anything narrow.

Oh, really? Anypony arrow is 89.38% and Justin Tucker is 89.32%. If he goes three for three in his next three, he will be back at number one. Yeah.

So this is like you can do this with any player really. You can say that they stink that they're over the hill and eventually you will be correct by the only person who's probably immune to that was very Sanders. Well, in top of me, it's Max Kellerman did it like every year and then he looked like a fool every year. That's true.

Yes. It was the was that show Dexter? It was like the Dexter on Showtime principle. It's like you want to move on one season two early, not one season two, right?

But Justin Tucker's a legitimate problem. He missed back to back field goals. It was the difference in this game. The Steelers kicker Chris Boswell made all his field goals.

Yeah. Art like that was something that the Ravens always could just rely on. Like, Hey, if we get past the 50 yard line, we're going to score points. Justin Tucker, like, are they if you're a Ravens fan, are you legitimately worried now?

Yes, you have to be worried. This could be an issue that rears its ugly head. Yeah. The strength of your team, like the most dominant player, one of the most dominant players ever at their position, Justin Tucker, I would say like for a while, Justin Tucker was as good at kicking as Tom Brady was a playing quarterback.

Yeah. And it's automatic. It hangs nodding his head back and forth. You disagree, Hank?

It was good for a few years. No, I'd say probably like seven years, eight years. Justin Tucker unquestionably the best kicker in the history of the game. That's a stretch, but that's fine.

I think it's probably a position to play to. That's, yes, that's accurate. I'll give you that. We are an international podcast.

So I will make sure to see important points to you. Yes. Um, but yeah, Justin Tucker, there is an actual issue with him. I don't know if I was Harbaugh, I would probably just say that he was injured because you can't deactivate.

You can't like bring in competition to kick against Justin Tucker. Hey, but I mean, he still came in after he missed those two. He bought you had a 50 yarder later on in the game. So he's still good.

He's just not Justin Tucker. Yeah. The Ravens essentially just have an average kicker now where it's like, I hope it goes in if it's deep. Yeah, that's essentially.

And then the big story though is Lamar can't figure out the Steelers. He's now one in four in his career against the Steelers. He has as many wins against the Steelers as Russell Wilson has against the Ravens in this rivalry. Yeah.

And in the one win is against Mason Rudolph. It was Mason Rudolph and Duck. Yeah. It was 2019.

Yeah, you got half of Mason Rudolph and then you had Duck Hodges in the second half. Besides that, he hasn't got it done. Now, I looked this up. I went back to the start of the Harbaugh time with rivalry.

So I think that's 2008. Yeah. Match up between these two teams since 2008, the total points. Steelers are now winning by 10 points.

That makes sense over the course of that entire time. That's an average of point three points per game between the two of those guys. Every single game every time is just it's within a touchdown. It's usually a it's usually a weird score.

This was a weird score. Yeah. Like, you know, if it's a two and a half points, we're just take the two and a half because it probably will be a one point game. And yeah, it was it was pretty shocking to see the Ravens defense be bottled.

Actually, weirdly both defenses. Like, I felt like over performed because I knew the Steelers defense was really good. But I thought, you know, the Ravens offense is really, really good. So they would have more success.

And then the Ravens secondary has been a problem all year. And the Steelers weren't able to like gash them really. Yeah. So it's just both these teams to get together and they just play old school football every time.

On both sides, it was like neither team wanted to make a mistake. Yeah. And so they were just taking what the defense was giving them. And the Steelers, yeah, the difference was the kicker in this game.

And the breaker in a wash kicker. And and what's his name? The other Wilson for the Steelers that that interception he had was just man football. Yeah.

He just took it. He literally took it away. And that was that was a huge pivotal play. And yeah, I think both these teams are very good, but I like the Steelers, I think for the majority of the season, we've been playing this game in our head.

We're like, the Steelers are good, but how good? Why? Why aren't they in the category with everyone else when it comes to their defense? They are.

Their defense has always been good. Yeah. Like this modern era of the Steelers, they've always had a dominant defense, but then they've had to like go out there and win games on their own sometimes. I would be concerned a little bit about Russell Wilson because it's, I mean, he was great in the fourth quarter against the commanders, but he wasn't great, like the first three quarters.

And then this game, are we getting back to like Russell Wilson just throwing checkdowns and being a little, you know, when he's under pressure, he doesn't have the mobility that he wants. Okay, there's the Ravens didn't want to give up anything big. That interception, Arthur Smith's face during that interception was perfect. I mean, everyone was like, what do you do?

Russell Wilson had the largest target maybe in the NFL, the largest pass catching target. And he just air mailed it by about well, it really wasn't that high of a throw. I would like to see Washington try to jump up in the air. Agreed.

He should have played defense on it, but it was more time and place. It's a 15, 10 game. Yeah. If you get a field goal, you're up eight and you just like the one thing you can't do is throw an interception.

And then we also had unfortunately for Justin Fields, it didn't, it will fortunately, it didn't matter. But his one big play was actually a really smart, well-designed QB run by Arthur Smith to try to win the game late and get that first down. And he slid like a full yard and a half short. And then he gave like the first down because he didn't know where the sticks were.

That was bad. And then they zoomed in on his face for about 15 seconds on this. I feel like that's most of the camera time that Justin Fields gets is right after a bone-headed mistake where they just show him staring off into the distance like he's in Vietnam and zooms in on him. And he just looks upset.

We also had, we get this every week, George Pickens temporarily goes insane during a game. They were actually, I got two of them. I got two of them this week. So this is why we've said George Pickens is a must watch player.

Yeah. There needs to be an all 22 of just George, but in all one of just George Pickens every single play. The first one was early in the first quarter. He caught a pass.

It was first in 10. It goes out of bounds after two yards and then makes the first down sign in the defensive backs. There was that. And then at one point he caught a pass and then he just started walking off the field.

Like when Forrest Gump just ran through the end zone into the tunnel. He was just walking down the field to nowhere. And Tomlin had to pull him off the field and explain to him, hey, the game's still going on. Yeah, he's just kept on walking.

It's not halftime yet. But I just, I love watching this guy. Yeah, I can't get enough of him. It's so much fun.

He's the absolute best. Okay. So yeah, the Steelers are sorry. The Ravens chances to win the North went down to 37% with this loss.

But Browns. Yeah. Yeah, the ultimate Tomlin trap game. Let's play whose lines anyway if it's been released on DraftKings.

And the Browns are the bet on Thursday night because the Steelers are coming off. I mean, it's just my time on as a dog all day every day. And then they're going to go to Cleveland. Whose lines anyway?

Four by DraftKings. Steelers minus three and a half. It's act Cleveland. That Cleveland.

It is Steelers minus five and a half. Whoa. Okay. Browns.

Yeah. Love it. Browns. Give me the Browns all day.

Browns. There's no reason for it. But I'm James Primetime. Steelers looking ahead.

You're going good about themselves. Road favorite. Yeah. Almost a touchdown.

Yeah. That's proud. This is a Muni Latt legacy game. You like that?

That's a bounce. And the under. And the under. They have seen North Divisional games.

These teams know how to play. Well, except for Ravens Bengals. Yeah. Literally like 150 points between the two of them.

Both games. Mm-hmm. Jomar Chase. I think Jomar Chase by himself hit every over.

True. End of the season. End of the season. And not Ravens Bengals.

Well, no, now we're in the end of those games. Those were in the early end of the season. Got it. It was last week.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. This is the end of the season.

This was week one. This is week one of the AFC North Unders. Yes. I like that.

That's smart. Hey, guys. As a man with championship. No.

As a man with championship pedigree. Can you tell me when good teams should say that they start paying attention to football? I mean, you're always paying attention, but you're not really. It's the playoffs.

This is the time. Would you say December even? Yeah, late November to summer. Okay.

Thanksgiving. Big cat made a comment and no one probably get to it last week. That kind of stuck with me when it was like it's not even though it's not even Thanksgiving. Yeah.

And the season's over. Yeah. And it's the opposite for good teams. Yeah.

Good season. It's really time to lock in and the season starts. But they also did make Thanksgiving extra late this year. So late as it can possibly be.

It's our Thursday this year. It's on Thursday this year. It's the latest it can possibly be. So yeah.

It kind of fucks everything up. Yeah. Yeah. It should have been it should be like in four days instead it's in whatever 10 days.

I also have a real problem with the schedule makers because we've got six buys next week. Yeah. Then we have no buys. Well, they have no buys because Thanksgiving.

You got to play. Yeah. And then after Thanksgiving, we go back to six buys again. Yeah.

Don't like it. I actually do like the six buys just because it's less games to like I want to be able to you get through all the buys and get to the other side. And it's like you have buys because there's just a bunch of teams that are so bad. You don't have to pay attention to.

They should be able to do flex scheduling, but with buys. They should be able to just team should be able to say we're done up that we're done for the year. Like there are definitely teams where if they said, hey, we're done for the year, you're going to pay all the players. That's fine.

But we're done for the year. We find we find by me. Okay. Next game.

The reason the sickles and perverts are tuning in Packers 20 Bears 19. I got fully baited. I got fully drawn back in. I thought the bears were going to win this game.

Really thought the bears were going to win this game. Matt before goes to 11 and 0 against the Chicago Bears. We haven't beaten them since 2018. I got completely baited.

So I went back a little bit further than that. Oh, it's like 52 and 14 or something. I went to in the far Rogers love since 92 in the far of Rogers love willess love era. The Packers are 15.

Flynn 51 and 15. Flynn 51 and 15. Forgot his actual record. Yeah.

50. Yeah. I mean, we can't beat them. And this is a game we should have beaten them and we played better than them.

And it doesn't matter. Can I use we have a stupid fucking head coach. There was a guy who wanted me to apologize to Matt. He was halfway through this game.

Matt. He was now 14 and 30 as a head coach. He's five and 17 in one score games. He's five and 17 in one score games.

And I want a little credit Shane Waldron being the worst coach of all time. That actually turned out to be true. Yeah. The offense looked pretty good today.

It looks significantly better. They basically were like, Caleb, get the ball out fast. We're going to try to run the ball. They called even amount of runs and passes.

Caleb got the ball out of his hands in 2.3 seconds average. He was decisive. He on third and fourth downs. He was 10 for 12 for 112 yards passing.

Good 40 yards. Yeah. 40 yards rushing. He got 10 first downs on those plays like even the end of the game.

Third and 19 like the Bears played well offensively all game. Then you get to the last two minutes. It's like, all right, he's got to go on and drive and they were they reverted back to the Bears of the last three weeks. Sacks sack.

And then Caleb gets him out of it. He's now in the last four weeks, he's gone on two game winning drives that Matty Bufus has fucked up. Yeah, I think if you're if you're a Bears fan, don't let the fact that you had a game winning field go distract you from the fact that Caleb should have been sacked on that play that he got out of. Yes.

And converted a miracle first down. It's just the fact that it's the Packers. That's the part that really kills because it's it's I'm not stupid to think that this team is a playoff team. And in reality, I don't even like Matty Bufus is such a bad kid coach.

I don't want to keep this going for much longer. But the Packers, like you can't we can't beat the Packers. They have voodoo magic or metaphors 11 and O, you have kale Williams, get him to field goal range. And then all the quotes afterwards just out coached again, rich Missaccia, who we like, said in the team meetings on Saturday night, he said that he would be shocked.

He wouldn't understand if they came out of the game today without a blocked field goal or extra point. And the Packers also said that in the last seconds of the game, several players, this is from Caitlyn Kaler. She said, just talk to several players on the Packers field goal block unit. And all of them said they noticed that Kyros Santos kicked with a low trajectory when doing film study.

And they expected the Bears to run another play, which in their opinion would have made it more difficult to block. Well, yeah, if they'd run it, that's the question is why did the Bears just agree to a 46 yard field goal? Because we have a coach that's five and 17 in one score games. And he also, he's coaching like a guy who has like a 10 year contract.

He's coaching like he shouldn't push the buttons to be like, hey, you're a foreign, five team now four and six that is spiraling out of control. You finally have a solid effort from offense. And you know, the defense got gassed on some big plays, we can get to that. But you're you finally are in a spot to win a game.

And not only do you not run an extra play when you have a timeout in your back pocket to try to get closer, but in the drive before that, it's it's fourth and three on the 50 yard line. Try to win the game right there. Like try to win the game right there. I don't know.

There's four minutes left. Just go win the game. Yeah, you're right about him coaching like he has jobs. He needs to coach scared.

He's not scared. No, he he coaches like extra scared though. Yeah, but no, he needs to have not going forward on it. Fourth and three.

Right. He's the opposite of Dan Campbell. He's the exact opposite of Dan Campbell. It's like he's he's he's mad.

It's so fucking frustrating. And at this point, so the part that really hurts is the Packers because we can't beat the Packers and we finally were going to beat the Packers. And then of course we get a field goal block. By the way, I thought you couldn't touch the center when he had his head down.

The people who were complaining about a no-call on that, you're actually right. They they bold over the long snap on that left. Yeah, I'm not going to complain because it's like I the bears are the bears and this is just it was just bound to happen. I can't believe I fell for it.

I can't believe I thought we were actually going to hit that field goal. But at this point of the season, like if we'd won this game, five and five. Oh shit, we might be back in it. Like I'm starting at this point.

It's like it makes it pretty cut and dry just salvage kills rookie season more days like today and make sure that you lose enough games that Matty before was gone. Yeah, so this might have been the perfect result. But it's still the Packers. That's the part that hurts.

It was anyone else. Yeah. I would have been like I could have I could have if it was the Vikings, if it was any other team, I could have twisted myself and been like, you know what, that was actually a good loss. The fact that it was the Packers and Packers fans are going to go away being like, oh, we're so much better than the bears.

And yeah, I know they are. But like they're throwing up this throwing intercept every fucking game. I got a question for you, though. When it comes to the low kick trajectory thing.

Yeah. That's not really a coaching point. Kyros Santos has to kick with a low trajectory because he doesn't he's got a very accurate leg. He's a good kicker.

Correct. But he doesn't have the biggest leg in the world. Like he has a 2009 leg where 56 yards an end. You can probably count on him to get it there, but he's not going to set any records.

So to kick it that distance, you have to have lower trajectory, then most other kickers do. But that's why you go get more yards. That's why you get more yards. That was what the Packers were saying.

They were surprised they didn't run another play. Yeah. That's the coaching part. Yeah.

That's the coaching part where he had a timeout and the Packers are like, they're going to run another play because they know what we know that he has a low trajectory. And there's but no, he's it's just it's so frustrating because it's the Packers. That's the part that kills me because like fucking hate the Packers and all they do is beat the fuck out of us time and time again. And it was going to be so big that like kill wins beat the Packers first start against the Packers we played the Vikings and the Lions on Thanksgiving, but I was going to have one week where everything was good.

And I thought about it and I believed it and I thought it was going to happen and it just didn't happen and we're back to there. It's frustrating. You had such a good night's sleep. I had such a good night's sleep.

Post-win sleep is so good. DJ Moore's back. Shane Waldron caused all his problems too. Yeah.

DJ looks great. Four receivers over 40 yards. The great part about what they did with DJ Moore was they got him the ball early. So they're like, we're not going to let this guy have time to get upset at the quarterback.

Shane Waldron was the worst coach of all time. You can't tell me differently. And that is also on the that's on the head of Matt Eberfluice. That's on the head of Ryan Paul's.

The fact that Shane Waldron was hired is just an abomination. The Bears looked so dead the last three games and to have an offense that was actually functional this week just as such an indictment on Shane Waldron being the offensive coordinator for a rookie quarterback. Yeah, they look great. They look really, really good this week.

They still didn't get. I wish we had scored a couple touchdowns and then of course Jordan Love, he just no matter what, two or three times a game, he's just going to throw a deep on to Christian Watson. It's going to work and I knew it was going to work and I knew it was going to work. And there's nothing you can do about it.

Yeah. I hate that. It's like when Josh rolls out to the sidelines and he's going to his right, you know that he's about to do something crazy and unspeakable to a defense. That's what it's like when Jordan Love starts back badly.

Yeah. Like here it comes. God damn it, just fucking well. When that game is a week 17?

I don't even know. I think it's week 18 that we've been in again. So last game of the season. And it's just a fact that like the two, now I'm going to play the game where it's like if Matt Eberfluice plays sideline defense against commanders on the play before the Hail Mary and if he runs another player two in this game, the Bears could be sitting at six and four and I'd be thinking, Yoff's in the hunt and I'd be thinking holy shit, everything looks different.

And it'd be like, oh, Kale Whims is going on two game winning drives. And yeah, it's been bad at times. I've never seen I was giving up on Kale Williams. I still think that whoever they hire as the next coach will be very, very important.

But this was a good day for him and it was good to bounce the pack. He addressed the whole team and apologized to them for his part in getting Shane Waldern fired. He should have actually been like, you guys should thank me. Yeah, because Shane Waldern never should have had a job.

I've got the schedule right here. You do have the Packers week 18 last game of the season. I know the schedule. You could play spoiler and that would be a great win if you go into Lambo.

And then the next day, if they don't fire Eberfluice the day after that, then that would be literally your January 6th. Yeah. Yeah. No, we would.

We'd have to. We'd have no other choice. A little dust up is Jack Doeriel said. Hank, do you have any questions that are going to put me in a bind and make me talk out of both sides of my mouth?

You're really good at that. What? No, usually ask a question that I give an answer and then people are like, well, you said this and now you're saying this and I get, you know, I'm an emotional wreck. I just, I mean, the and then the Badgers on Saturday night, I was devastating.

Don't smile at me like that, Max. I would just like to point out that I was a tough loss. I was good for the Badgers. On Friday's show, it was brought up that if the Bears look good against the Packers, you might be like Bears are all the way back during the game.

Did you think that the Bears were back? I said Bears might, I think I tweeted exactly Bears might be back situation remains fluid. Okay. They had to win the game.

Caleb looks confident. It was a positive day for me. I understand, but it's the Packers. Who cares?

It was, I do. What do you mean? It was Max. I agree with you.

Everything you're saying is correct, but it's the Packers. We can't beat the Packers. Matt Leforz literally never lost to the Bears. It's insane.

It's like the beating just won't stop. It just happens every year like clockwork. So it was any other team. If this was a game against the 49ers, I would have been like, you know what?

Rookie quarterback. We're still working on things next year's year that was great. Performance by Kale Williams, but it's the Packers and we had the game. We had it.

That field was never going in. It was never going in. If he didn't block it, if they didn't make it, if they didn't assault, you know, long snapper, it might, it might, it might be a good thing. It got blocked.

There's worse ways to lose a game on it. He easily could have just missed it. He was going in. It was going in.

It was going in. He owned. Kale Williams looks really good. This is a good day for Bears fans.

Has to be a good day for Bears fans. We lost the pass. That's crazy. That's not that you would.

If it rolls reverse, it was the Cowboys for you and you were going through the same thing. Also, Matt Eberfluze, fuck you, dude. He said, tough times don't last tough people do. First of all, you're not going to last, buddy.

He has. Second of all, tough times do last. What was this that? It was 55 and 15.

It was going back to 1992, the start of Brett Favre, 51, 15. That's literally tough times lasting. That's literally do not stop. It's just tough times.

I just saw the replay of the Tipton Field Gold. That was going to go in. Yeah, it was. That was going to go in.

We beat in the Packers like three times in the last 10 years. All right. So can I just confess that while watching the game, I wanted the Bears to win. I wanted that field goal to go in.

I want to be get to be happy. However, during the setup, I thought, how fucking funny would this be if it doubled to win? That would have been funny. There's worse ways to lose.

I mean, yeah, it would have been funny for a lot of people. Yeah. I'm sobering for the rollercoaster. So I was really, really open to that.

That was going to be all the way back in. Also, that was the worst over game to have in the history of over games. You needed two points and they stopped at the Coline twice, two point inversion, missed twice, and the block field goal was the worst over game. Yeah, defense played well in that Coline.

And they just couldn't stop the long passes. Jordan Love would just rip a 60 yard. All right. So Hank, you got any last questions that will twist me up and we'll end up being in the rollercoaster reel at the end of the year?

No, I felt bad. I was looking at the game looking at the record and I was like, if the Bears win this game, the records are going to be one game apart. They could be better than the Packers, not the last team in that industry north. Yeah.

But I'll say this, Max, you're wrong on the take that it was a good day for the Bears. It was not because we lost the Packers. The one positive out of this is the rest of the season is as clear as it could possibly be. Just have Kale Williams be good and not regress and not look like last three weeks.

Gale Williams look like this Sunday. Kale Williams and get Matt Iburfus fired. That's it. That's it.

Those are the only two objectives at the end of the rest of the season. That's it. There's nothing else that matters. He looked good, though.

Winning and losing, which is a good thing. Does not matter because we know Matt Iburfus had given the chance to win. He will choose the loss every time. Max is confusing, seeing good signs with having a good day.

And it also is against the Packers. He's just completely like he's pretending like he doesn't become a nervous record when he plays the Cowboys. Yeah. I get it.

I get it. But the Bears are never doing anything this year and Kale Williams looked good and you don't have to freak out. They win that game and I look at the schedule. No, it's the gauntlet of all the time.

No, it's why the last three weeks I've been as emotional as I've been because the schedule was going to be a disaster. All right. Another positive. We don't think it's giving.

That's going to be what we're going to get fucking smoked on Thanksgiving. Holy shit. If you don't stop, imagine if you don't. That would be fun.

That would be fun. I'll agree with you guys. That'd be fun. Yeah.

Another positive thing. The offensive line looked good. Yeah, because they actually ran the ball and they actually got the ball out fast. It turns out if you don't make Kale Williams go through five progressions and also you tell Kale Williams, hey, just fucking throw it underneath if a guy's open.

Yeah. Things can work. Who is that? Who is that?

You play to your strengths. Who's your tackle that laid that block? Brack and Jones. He's doing this a road career.

Yeah. Where's that been? Office line would have to be so pissed off at Shane Waldron. Yeah, because they're not being asked to block for a million seconds anymore.

Where like, route trees don't make sense and no one's open. Like it was very clear that they were like, Caleb, throw the ball when it guys open and just get the ball out of your hands. And when you do that, your offensive line can look good. And also, if you don't see anybody open, just run.

The Packers fucking stink. I'm they stink. Okay. They're not winning shit this year.

They aren't. You guys agree? Don't think they're going to win the Super Bowl. They're not winning shit.

Jordan loves just throwing some things about it. What? Like last year at this time. They went in shit.

They stink. Josh Jacobs is pretty good. Jordan loves not fully healthy. He's fucking healthy.

He's healthy. He throws if he's throwing a pick, he's healthy. That's Jordan Love. He got a kicker now.

He throws picks. So he does. Okay. Rams 28 Patriots 22.

Henry? Yeah. Trick may look good. Trick may look good.

Uh, bad interception at the end. Last play of the game. That might have been on the receiver too. Yeah, it was a weird ride.

It looked like he was wide open miscommunication. Kind of what I thought might happen where saffered, picked apart the defense. They kind of did whatever they wanted. Three for four touchdowns.

Drake may look good. Exciting loss. Exciting loss. Exciting loss.

You're excited. Look at you. It was a fun, it was fun game to watch. And again, like going into the season, I wasn't expecting to go into the Sunday.

He's expecting to win. I'm not super disappointed that they lost. But Drake may look good. It was a fun game to watch.

He had a bad fumble. He did very well. That he was, you know, the hands moving forward. It's kind of like a tough rule situation.

Small hands. You basically watched my game, except you weren't playing a rival. Yeah. Who would beat your brains?

And we also weren't going into the season being like, Drake may have the best talent. OK, all right. All right. And it's going to be a huge year, y'all, et cetera.
