Show notes

John dives into another Monday Night Football double-header, headlined by reigning NFL MVP Lamar Jackson’s Baltimore Ravens dominating Baker Mayfield’s Tampa Bay Buccaneers. John tips his cap to one of the best offensive players in the NFL and explains why the Ravens dynamic offense, after adding star running back Derrick Henry, is capable of propelling Baltimore to the Super Bowl this season. John proceeds to say that Baltimore’s borderline-unstoppable run game actually might make it EASIER for them to advance past Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs than ever before, and could finally take it to the next level. After, Middlekauff breaks down the Buccaneers slew of injuries, headlined by the loss of stud WR Mike Evans and Chris Godwin. Then, John unpacks Kyler Murray’s Arizona Cardinals defeating John Harbaugh and Justin Herbert’s Los Angeles Chargers in a close 17-14 contest. Finally, another edition of Penthouse/Outhouse.

Show notes

John is back reacting to the Pittsburgh Steelers, led by journeyman QB Russell Wilson, defeating Aaron Rodgers and the New York Jets in star WR Davante Adams’ debut. John breaks down how Russell Wilson, Najee Harris and the Steelers turned the tide after a shaky start against the New York Jets thin defense to win 37-15. Middlekauff salutes Mike Tomlin and the Steelers consistency across several years, and explains why the Steelers way, despite challenging, provides consistency other teams would kill for. After getting worked in the second half, Middlekauff wonders if Aaron Rodgers and the New York Jets season is OFFICIALLY over after falling to a disappointing 2-5 on the season. After, John recaps the full Sunday slate of games and goes through the gamut of games.

Then, they move onto a close win for the Detroit Lions and the reasons why Jared Goff doesn’t get enough credit for being the last great “true pocket passer” (45:00) and why the Lions are the team to beat in the NFC (51:00)

They discuss the discord that must be happening in the Giants organization after Saquon Barkley torched the Giants and why the Daniel Jones era is done in New York (56:00). They move on to the Packers/Texans game and break down why both teams are both “a year away” but why one of the two teams is closer to Super Bowl contention (01:04:00).

Then, they move to college football and break down the marquee matchup between Texas and Georgia that was dominated by the Bulldogs (01:18:00), why Georgia quarterback Carson Beck has proven he’s not a first round draft pick (01:20:00) and why this could actually be a loss that helps Texas win a national championship (01:23:00).

Finally, they try to make sense of USC’s woes on the field, and their struggles recruiting top talent from the state of California (01:30:00), and debate whether USC and head coach Lincoln Riley could be destined for a divorce (01:35:00).
