Summary

In this episode, Alex Bleuel and I review Week 1 of the 2022 NFL season. First, we head to Cincinnati, where the Pittsburgh Steelers and Cincinnati Bengals played another AFC North showdown. Despite Joe Burrow's five-interception game, a late touchdown to Ja'Marr Chase gave tied the game before a potential game-winning extra point attempt. Unfortunately for the Benla,s a blocked Evan McPherson extra point sent this game into overtime. After two more missed field goals, Crhis Boswell ended this game with a 53-yard field goal in overtime. Late in this game, Steelers star pass-rusher T.J. Watt tore his pec. Onto Houston, where the Colts and Texans played to a 20-20 tie. Despite Jonathan Taylor and Michael Pittman Jr.'s strong afternoons, a Rodrigo Blankenship missed field goal kept Houston alive. We try and answer why the Colts cannot win a season-opener and whether Lovie smith should have been more aggressive late in overtime. We then look back at two more impressive displays. Alex was impresses with Justin Jefferson in a strong win over the Green Bay Packers. I loved the New York Giants beating the Tennessee Titans in Nashville. Patrick Mahomes showed his all-around brillance and Justin Fields handled a tough 49ers defense and Chicago's rain. We then finish this episode by talking about Alex's head-to-head DraftKings win over me this weekend by five points. Despite Alex's win, I explain how Week 1 was a very good DFS week for The Big D.

The Top Two Inches is a predominantly Celtic rugby-focused podcast, but we're not afraid to tackle the big issues in the wider rugby world, if and when the crop up - say, for example, Justin Marshall is wearing a particularly on-point tie during punditry one day, we'd be on it! Enjoy Trenta Patricia Davide All this time in isolation inspired me to keep creating so I thought of filling the blog with conversations. A podcast felt like a good place to start. Pre-quarantine, my friends and I would get together for Wine-not Wednesdays-turned-gin therapy Thursdays and we'd talk just about anything til the wee hours of the morning. We began recording those conversations some three years ago as the topics got a bit deeper and we were inching a bit closer to the big 3-0. I wanted to continue documenting how we and other thirtysomethings ride and roll with what this new decade brings. Hence, Trenta.
