Here's Joel Plankett, Jeremy Brando. 4-6-3-1, I think Texans losing this one makes me think the schedule probably had them losing a few more games. And I thought, I think they win the division still, but they got to be a good team before I'm ready to think they're ready. For winning in the playoffs, I'm not changing my Texans win prediction. I had them in 10 and 7. I also had them at two and one through, three games. I have them at three and two through five games. I'm not changing my prediction. Are you changing your prediction off of 10 wins? I'm sticking right where I'm at. 10 or 9. I had 9. I thought you counted them and you got to 10. No, but I mean, I got to stick with what I put on film. I put the videotape and said 9, so I have to stick with it. Which film, I guess. Yeah, I mean, we did film that segment and you counted up to 10. Oh, OK. So you had 9 or 10? I'll say 10. I'll say 10 for the sake of I hope it's 10. And I still believe in this team. You guys know this, and Brian hates it more than anybody, but the schedule still concerns me deeply. Yeah, yeah. Because I had them going, I just had them started the season undefeated going to Lambo. Yeah, I think there's some winnable games there. Are you changing your predict? Because you had them, what, 15 wins, Brian? No, I think 16. So there's the right on track. It's fine. It's the only loss in the season. No, I had an 11. And I too had them two and one through the first three, so I'm not changing off that. I thought you took it to 12 after they look good. No, I think we did that name, the tune thing. And I said 12. Oh, you actually know Joel's right. I had a cashier trash here. I think it was last week where I said they would get to 12 and win the division by six games. And thanks to Will Levison, Trevor Lawrence, the sixth game-- well, Anthony Richardson also. The sixth game still feels really good to me. I'm not back on that at all. Good idea, Brian, tape don't lie. All right. All right. We had tape on both of us. Yep. I just had two takes. I saw a lot of people on Twitter after this loss, saying that the Super Bowl contender talk needs to stop, that we can't say the Texans are a Super Bowl contender. Are we deleting the Texans from a contendership of the Super Bowl based on this loss? I'm not. I'm not because I still love the roster. I still think there's a boatload of talent on this roster. I just think that in every season, a little rain's going to fall, and you're going to have a hiccup, and you can't judge a team on one bad week. Now, the next couple of weeks are going to be real telling in terms of can they recover? Can they get rid of all the penalties? Can they improve the continuity of the offensive line? Can they do the kind of things defensively that they need to do like they did against what we thought were good teams that maybe weren't so good? And can they do the things from an offensive perspective to kind of make sure that no matter what kind of defense you're facing, you can still be effective? I believe there's too much talent on this team not to think that they're not still an upper echelon team in this league that could be a Super Bowl contender. But I do think that this is a critical couple of weeks here to figure out where we go from this hiccup. I just don't think many Super Bowl winning teams lose by 27 points. Like the way, like the texture saying, it's the way that they lost. I went in, I went and looked this up. It has been done. It's been done eight times, actually. There's been a Super Bowl champion that is lost by 27 points or more, eight times. Most recently, the 2020 Tampa Bay Buccaneers, the 14 Patriots, the 12 Ravens actually lost to the Texans, 43 to 13, went on to win the Super Bowl, 06 Colts, 03 Patriots, 94 Niners, 79 Steelers, 76 Raiders. So it's been done, it is possible. It just hasn't been done very often. Now, none of those teams lost by 27 are more again. They only, it only happened once. No Super Bowl champion has ever lost by 27 or more points twice in a season. So I'm not ruling the Texans out from Super Bowl Contendership yet. If they lose by 27 points again, see a goodbye season's over, at least from a Super Bowl Contendership conversation. I think a lot of times though, we get lost in just one single game. And I think that you're, like what you were saying is what matters the most. Losing a game in week three by 27 or seven really doesn't matter. It is the way you lose it, but it's also how you correct those things going forward. The way the Texans are playing right now in the offensive line, they are incapable of winning a Super Bowl. It will not happen. They will be an early exit if they get to the playoffs. So that must be cleaned up. If they clean that up, I think their offense has a really good chance to be really good. But right now it seems like they have a long way to go. So let's see how it gets coached up. Let's see if there's production there going forward. Like Titus Howard deleted his Twitter today. Okay, let's get serious Titus Howard. Let's make that offensive line good. Can you stop having 18 penalties in a game? And that's really for the entire team. And then the defensive side, I actually like some of what I saw defensively. They're one of the best in the league at getting to the quarterback. The pressure statistics and analytics are very, very high. The coverage numbers aren't great. So it's kind of like, hey, Demi. And I don't think it's a talent thing there either. 'Cause I like Stingly, I like Lasseter. So it's maybe more of a Demico Ryan's thing. So I don't care so much that they lost by 27. To me, it's more, okay. These are the areas that you're currently really bad at. And I think the offensive line is the biggest among them. They look dreadful offensively. They don't look like they're anywhere near a playoff team from the offensive line perspective. So it's how you clean that stuff up going forward. I still think they have the potential to be a very good football team. I don't think they are today. But we're not grading them how they are on September 24th. We're grading them how they are in week 17 and then going into the playoffs. They have a long way to go. I won't rule out that they can get there. That's why if you're gonna do one of these hiccups, it's better to have it in the first couple of weeks of the season than when it starts to be at a critical time. And now you're like in complete panic mode. But at the same time, I don't call for anybody's job, but I expect everybody to do their job. And that means no matter how you've been coaching up prior to this and whether that means from an offensive line perspective and you just think you can figure it out yourself or you consult with the guys like Bobby Sloak and also like your defensive side, defensive coaches to figure out, hey, when he was showing me this and I gotta work on that, I don't care how it gets done, but it's not just the penalties, it's the coverage. And you said, you know, even from the all 22, it was more glaring, it's figuring out how to not make those mistakes again. - Yeah, 7-1-3-7-8-0-ESP, it is. It's like you're graded based on who you are at the end of the year, not who you are in week three. Now, if the Texans are still playing the way that they're currently playing, they're gonna have some serious issues at specific areas. 1117, they got their butts beat by Cleveland bad last year then came back and beat their butt in the playoffs. That loss doesn't mean crap. They corrected some areas that needed to be corrected. Can they do it again this year? But then they also got to be badly by Baltimore the following week in the second half. A 0-9-7-9, if the Texans lose this week, the hate is gonna get real, but they'll be okay. Yeah, if they lose it home in Jacksonville, lose back to bad games, it will get pretty ugly. - Especially 'cause how bad Jacksonville looked last time. - Yeah, you hand them their first win. 5-1-5-5, it's not one bad week. It's one terrible week and one terrible week and two MA weeks. They couldn't put away Chicago or Indy. I'll agree with that. They were MA against Chicago or Indy. They showed signs of doing things that really good teams can do, but they didn't play consistently like that for 60 minutes. There's been more MA for the Texans so far this year than there's been good. I'll agree with that. - There's also been the big plays were there. They didn't completely execute them. We talked about the fact that there were drop passes and opportunities that they, the fumble inside. But that's what you got to clean up to. It's everybody's got to do better and you've got to be more clean with the way you play the game because these little mistakes are compounding themselves into being big reasons why you look so bad on film and when you play games against decent teams. - 2-5-8-5, does you not notice CJ holding the ball a little longer than he usually does in that last game I did? I just said it a few minutes ago. 3-0-6-6 told y'all the Vikings were beating that butt. They are the Super Bowl contender, not the Texans. Cash or trash, Vikings are Super Bowl contenders. - Yeah, trash it. - Yeah, I think they're playoff trash. - I think they, right now as much as I didn't think that they were when we were making our predictions and looking at them pre-season, like unless the glass slipper falls off of Sam Darnold, they got weapons on both sides of the ball. They got great coaching and they'll be in the mix for a playoff spot. - They're adding to the offense too. Like Addison hasn't played in the last two weeks. He's legit and then TJ Hawkins is coming back this year and is one of the better tight ends in football. So like their weapons are pretty dang good. It's just, you know, we heard DJ Binemay say in every point in his career, there's a point where Sam Darnold reverts back to being Sam Darnold of old. If he doesn't, there's a ton of talent on that roster and great coaching. - Yeah, I think they're a playoff team. Super Bowl contender, I can't call them that. Now NFC doesn't have a lead quarterback play. - They don't have a lead team play right now. Jeremy, you think about how bad San Francisco's been in Philadelphia looks bad too. - Yeah, so maybe they are a Super Bowl contender. 8-3-4-1, maybe all those Super Bowl talk has gotten in their head and they need to realize that to get to the Super Bowl, they have to go out and perform every game, every quarter, every possession, offense and defense and that gives them to the Super Bowl. I would agree with that. It's more like be where your feet are one day at a time. - I also think I go back to the whole adjustments, whether it's in-game in the middle of a game in the first quarter, second quarter, or at halftime, come out of the gates in the second half, noticeably making adjustments. We talked about just capitalize on the plays that are there. Just try and build one drive doing something differently from the schematic things you're doing offensive line, but more so, the plays that you're executing to show that you realize what they were doing to you and showing you and you can adjust. - 8-7-8-9, can we please get rid of Slowick? I don't think Slowick's the issue. There's some things I rather Slowick do, a little bit more, like quick game, I like to see that a little bit more, but I don't look at that offense and I'm like, "Oh, Bobby Slowick's doing a terrible job." In fact, there were some things he did where I was like, "That's pretty good stuff." I think the offensive line is ruining everything for the offense right now, quite frankly. Like, it's not like, and can Slowick draw some stuff up that's better, I guess, but he's running 12 personnel. He's past protecting with seven guys sometimes, and that's taking him away from his full allotment because he can't trust his offensive line. If I'm pointing to offensive issues, Bobby Slowick's not the first, second, third, or fourth thing I'm looking at. It all starts on that offensive line. - Yeah, I'm with you on that. I don't worry about Bobby Slowick. If anything, I think that he and CJ are on the right page. It's just a matter of being a little bit more cognizant of the fact that I just, what I was just talking about. When you play a dynamic defensive play caller with weapons on the defensive side of the football, you have to be willing to adjust and do some things that otherwise, maybe you weren't even game planning for that week. And you can still be effective 'cause you have too much talent. - Six-four, the offensive line, those playing so bad. - The line is where I thought they had more talent than maybe they do. I believe in the receivers and the skill position players, the line really has me concerned. - I hesitate to say talent though, 'cause I think they're talented. I think it's production and they're having a really tough time past protecting for whatever reason. I think it's mostly communication, but I'm worried about Chris Strauser. Like all of you are in Bobby Slowick. I'm saying Chris Strauser. Six-four, zero, three Houston fans have always been the quickest to get on and the quickest to get off the bandwagon. You're probably right there. Six-three, zero, two. Do you think Sam Donald told CJ Stroud post game that he can't hold onto the ball like that and can't take those hits? Well played. - That's pretty good. I like that. That is funny. All right, 713-780-3776. Let's give out some game balls. Who's getting game balls based on their week three performance? It's the B's on ESPN 97-5 and ESPN 92-5. - Got story, we go to the break. A word from a good friend, Doc Linville. Doc Linville best in the business at the Neograph procedure at PRP treatments. Look, he also does spot treatments, Botox, plastic surgery. He has a jack of all trades and he does them all better than just about anyone, but at the same time, the one that I have personal experience is the PRP treatments and the Neograph procedure. He's the best. He got my hair back. If you have hair loss, you have thinning hair, you don't think there's anything you can do about it. You're fearful of going bald and you think your only resort is gonna be either a toupee or the sprays and the creams and the foams that just masked the problem. I'm here to tell you there's another solution and that is Doc Linville. All you gotta do, if you don't believe me, is get a free consultation with Doc and his staff. You listen to us, you wanna talk to him? You don't pay a thing. No commitment on the dotted line, no money out of pocket. Just you talking to them, they explaining to you what they can do and you thinking about whether you might wanna try it. I did both. I did the PRP treatments after I did the Neograph. The results, phenomenal. I got my hair back. My eight head went back to a forehead. I got my hair back and I owe it all to Doc and his staff. You can get the information on how you can do the same. And essentially in long talk, you can make the same kind of correlation. If you just need it, you have hair there, it's thinner than it was previously, but you can still see it and you know that it's there on your head. The PRP treatments is like fertilizing your lawn to make it thicker, stronger and longer. And you don't need to go all the way to the PRP, to the Neograph procedure. If your hair's already gone, you've got bald spots and Doc'll be the one to tell you, then the Neograph procedure's a game changer. It's essentially like re-siding your lawn, taking hair from where you're never gonna lose it. And I found out from Doc, you never lose the hair on the sides in the back of your head, no matter where you lose it otherwise. And it doesn't come back. So you take some of that, puts it where you need it most. In my case up front, sometimes it's the bald spot up on top and back, but it gets you the results of your hair back. You see the follicles immediately when you get out of the procedure. And as the next six to nine months go by, that hair's gonna grow, get stronger, longer, establish the roots, not go anywhere, be with you for the rest of your life and give you your hair back. Better coverage, better look. With that more self-confidence, it's a game-changing experience. Check 'em out today, tell 'em I said you buy, go to 975hair.com.

Now back to Joel and Jeron. - Who are you giving game balls to after their week three performance? 713-7803-776. Linkers, who's your first game ball to go to? - Let's give it to the NA. Let's give it to the guy that's not blonde or brunette. Let's give it to Andy Dalton, and then the fact that he did what I don't think anybody thought could be done. And that was get the Carolina Panthers a solid victory and not make any mistakes in the process. The fact that he threw for over 300 yards, he got multiple touchdowns. He didn't turn the ball over, and he made canals look like he could execute the offense. I give him my first game ball. - You know the biggest testament that game was to, though? Bryce Young. That game was a bigger testament to Bryce Young than anybody on Planet Earth. - You're talking about the testament that he can't play. - Yeah. - Like if Andy Dalton, Andy Dalton, the Red Rocket, if the Red Rocket is doing that, you say RBI. If the Red Rocket is doing that, 319 yards, three touchdowns, he's making the Panthers offense look good. You know what that tells me about Bryce Young? And he's a bum! - That's the most telling sign. - He's a bum. - That is the most telling sign. If it wasn't the new coach that's supposed to be the quarterback whisperer for smaller guys, saying I'm done, then it is this. - My first game ball goes to the dark headed Sam Darnold, 17 for 28, only through 171 yards, but four touchdowns for Sam Darnold. Sam Darnold gets a Bradham game ball. - My first game ball is gonna go out to Malik neighbors, had a huge game. Best rookie rider receiver right now. Obviously Marvin Harrison had a huge week two game, but Malik neighbors have not played them so far, and he helped the Giants beat the Browns that I always enjoy with just Sean Watson. Looks awful loose as a football game, so shout out to Malik neighbors in the New York football Giants. - That was a bad loss for Cleveland. - No, it really wasn't. - You lost it whole. - You saw that. - To the Giants. - That was like a six and a half point favorite, I think they were. - That's a bad loss. Does Malik neighbors save Brian Dable's job? - He's really good, man. He's making vanilla Vic look confident, right? - Yeah, I think if you're the mayor of family and you realize, hey, with a different quarterback, Dable can coach offense, and you got a weapon now that at least another weapon that he can go to, and you're gonna have draft picks, I think he's the safest job. - Does he save Daniel Jones' job? - No. - No, he don't. - I don't know. - No. - Daniel Jones looks competent. - Is it his pant or somebody did the comparison that if Daniel Jones came out as the number one pick with the hype that Trevor Lawrence had, they are almost mirror images of each other in their career over the last couple of years. That's bad news for Trevor Lawrence. - Man, great. - Yeah. - My second one goes to Derek Henry. - Malik neighbors, by the way, dark here. - Derek Henry. - Breaking news. - That means ran all over the team that everybody had kind of penciled in as the team that was gonna go get Derek Henry, and Jerry Jones and the Dallas Cowboys now are eating crow and Jerry's saying, I guess it's on me, but Derek Henry just ran rough shot over the Dallas defense. Dallas, we talk about the Texans making mistakes and having coaching issues and continuity and where the hell was that? They were constantly outmatched on the defensive line. They couldn't stop the run, and Derek Henry was doing his thing, stiff farming people and bulldozing more and just running rough shot. - You remember who said he was washed after week one? - You lookin' at me? - Oh, you said it? - I said he was a bad fit for the Ravens offense. - Oh, I think you said washed. - I'll eat that out. - I'll eat that out. - I don't remember that. - I think you said washed. - I'm pretty sure you did. - I'm pretty sure you did. - The 30-year-old running back. Oz were in my favor. - Pretty sure you did. Not Derek Henry. He spends a quarter million dollars on his body and has dark hair. - Say he doesn't eat a wheel 'til four or five o'clock at night every day? - Yeah, occasionally he'll eat an avocado or a banana. - Before practice, then he doesn't eat 'til one meal for dinner. - I think there's a, I think there's a, this type of diet has a name. I think it's like the Titan diet or something like that. It's funny if it is the Titan diet. - Yeah, it would be apropos for him. - I don't know if it's Titan. - I don't know if it's Titan. - No. - But it's kind of like-- - Maybe a Viking diet where you eat all of your calories in one city. You feast, you eat like 2,500 calories in one city. - It's kind of like when we-- - There's a name for it. - What was it, we were talking about a couple, like six, eight months ago about the fasting where you do the power fast. - Yeah, intermittent fasting, there you go. - Yeah, yeah, that's weird, weird diet. I wouldn't want to do it. Malik Willis gets a game ball. I'm surprised Blankers didn't say that. - Oh, it's on my list. - Malik Willis, "Dark Hair" beats his former team, by the way, 275 total yards, two touchdowns. Here's my hot tank. If I'm the Packers, I feel like Stetch. I would not play Jordan Love until I lost a game. And this isn't because I'm playing the hot hand Malik Willis. There's nothing to do. It has nothing to do with playing the hot hand here. It's buying as much time for Jordan Love to get 100%. Because I don't want to put Jordan Love back when he's 90% and he does more damage to the knee and then you lose him for the year. So this isn't my, Malik Willis is on an eat or play him. This is because I want to make sure Jordan Love gets right and you can afford to keep riding Malik Willis 'cause he's two and 0. Once you lose a game, then make the change. - I trash it only because this week, if it wasn't a traditional game, that they might consider doing that. - You're going to hurt. Bernard's going to ruin his life. - Yeah, it's Minnesota and it's at home. And I think they're going to play him this week. - You would say Love this week? - I would say Love this week. Yeah, I mean, because they pulled out two surprise wins that no one had them winning, they could afford to wait an extra week or two. They're not out of it, which we all thought they would be by this point. My next one is going to go to the light haired Bowed Nick's who went into Tampa Bay. Did throw a touchdown pass, but it was very efficient pass in the football, picked up around 50 yards rushing and ran into touchdown. - For probably the biggest surprise of the weekend, going in and knocking off the undefeated Tampa Bay Bucket. - Yeah, that's true. But Carolina and the Giants, we had a couple of, we've already had most of them. - No, Carolina was way up there, but I mean, it's off the sausage, a tenured quarterback and Bowed Nick's have done nothing and the Broncos have looked awful. - You're the leading rusher for the Broncos, was that game? - It's, his name is pronounced, oh gosh, it's a, oh yeah, I know, I know who you're talking about. Tell me about it. - Is it pronounced funny? - It's pronounced. - 'Cause it reads baddie. - It's not baddie, it's bidet. - Oh, okay. - Yeah, we all fought like, 'cause his names come up in the fantasy community. We all thought it was baddie, but apparently he's told everyone it's pronounced bidet. - Tyler, the big town bidet. - Big town bidet. - Big town bidet. - Yeah, it does. - How does he lead the Broncos in rushing? That was weird. All right, next game, ball blinker. - Sequon, Sequon, 140, 147 yards and two touchdowns. I actually had two eagles with as shaky as that game was. But your tight end goes for 170 Dallas Goddard and Sequon gets you 147 and two touchdowns. Those are pretty good weapons. - That Dallas Goddard performance is out of nowhere. - Yeah, I had Goddard getting my game ball with Sequon as an honorable mention, but both were huge. - No doubt. - Both were huge. It was a big win for the Eagles. It was a good game. - Yeah, it really was. - Sporing. - I was surprised. - Not as the over like I did. - No. - The over was over very quickly. - Saints had chances. I mean, Jalen Hurth doesn't look great right now, but, and then you've got, it was a lot of dirty plays in that game. You saw that with Smith when he went down and his helmet came off and the guy speared him and then spit on him, they said. That's, that was, I thought New Orleans had plenty of opportunity. - I was Peyton Turner to go couch. - Oh really, wasn't it? - Yeah, it was. - I don't think he was actually, I think he was just stuff came out of his mouth. I don't think he actually spat on him. - It wasn't a close up enough to verify it, but multiple people were talking about it. - You say that was a smirk. I have no idea. I mean, it definitely looked that way. I'm not trying to lie. I'm not gonna lie. Hey, I like violence. Josh Allen, dark care, over 300 total yards for touchdown. Josh Allen looks good. Buffalo Bills, the good. - Josh Allen could have had a good touchdown if he wanted it. - James Kirk dropped an easy touchdown. - He could have a touchdown. If they wanted, the thing about it, the Bills are putting a huge stats. They really haven't had to play in the second half yet. - And they found a way to kind of control his turnovers by just keeping him within the framework of the offense. He's a leading candidate for MVP, right? - Yeah, he literally is. - Yeah, no joke. My next game ball will go out to, I'm trying to find a light here guy on my list, but I can't find one, damn it. Terry McCorran, I know that hearing balls probably should go to Jayden Daniels, he was great, but Terry McCorran's someone who I've rooted to actually have a quarterback for a long time, and you can tell just how happy he was in the post-game afterwards. Like, I finally have a freaking quarterback. Of course, he has to touchdown to put the game away, where Jayden Daniels apparently saw zero and decides, you know what? - I got up to my dude, Terry, and Terry came down with it. - What's the stat where they only haven't punted in two games? - Yeah, they haven't punted in two games. - No turnover, yeah, it's also, it's no turnovers, no funds for two games. - It's not like 15 possessions or something like that, but it's ridiculous. - They've been in Texas. - They've been in Texas. - They've interviewed Cliff Kingsbury, is there OC. - That's right. - Yeah, he's there. - They interviewed him. - Yeah, I would have given Daniels the game ball there, in dark care, 293 touchdowns. - So scary, dark care. - I had Kyron Williams. - One more round, one more round. - I had Kyron Williams, 89 yards rushing two touchdowns, 27 receiving yards and another touchdown, three touches and 100 plus yards of total offense. Rams get the wins, win against the Niners. That was a debacle of an ending, but cute as to him and the Rams. - Dark care, Jonathan Taylor, 23, 1-10-2. This is how the Colts have the win game. Do you see the Anthony Richardson interception? - You're bad. - Oh my gosh, have a shot with some of them. - Oh man, the one in the Enzo was the one that was at this one. I didn't think he got it to three. - They get two or three, at least two, but it was a three the week before in Green Bay to this one. - And he was like 10 for 20. - Yes. - You have to run the ball. You have to run, he didn't throw in your, he threw two interceptions, three the week before. He was 10 for 20, two interceptions. The one of the Enzo was awful, awful. You have to feed Jonathan Taylor if you want to win games in Indy. Have to. All right, was it my game? Oh, it was your final one. - Okay, is it on me? I'm going to give it out. This is to a combo of players or maybe the coaching staff, but the way the Detroit Lions established the run and gave Jameer Gibbs and David Montgomery all the work they could handle combined for 39 carries for 188 yards. They didn't even have to score the second half to give the Cardinals 'cause they control that game so well. I love to see the En Campbell establish the run there in Detroit. - Yeah. David Montgomery was a beast in that one. So it was Gibbs, so it was another good game. That was a low scoring game. Shout out to the under team, I think. Yeah, I had the under on that one. - There you go. - I think Arizona sees that again. I think there's a game, there's a game plan in the mix now. - There's a game plan to run Arizona for sure. They also don't have any really heavy pass rush. That defense is not very good. - But Arizona and Indy, the rest of the season until otherwise proven different are going to see a force feeding and running. - Yeah. 6302, game ball to Brandon Aubrey, baby. That guy's a freak. 65 yard field goal, and they did it with like seven minutes to go in the first quarter. Like you only see that kick attempted late in the half. First half, second half, game winner, when the other team's not going to get the ball. They had the audacity to try a 65 yard field goal in just the middle of the first quarter. And he drilled it. That was stupid. - That one yard away from the all-time record. - Yeah, Tucker's got it at 66. I think that record goes down this year. - When do you see a 65 yarder attempted in the middle of the first quarter? - You nailed it. - How the count was seen. - I don't know if you guys remember week one. They ended up chickening out of it. Shout out to Mike McCarther for that one. But they almost attempted a 70 yarder at the end of the half against Cleveland. I want to see Arby try it. I think he can make it. Brandon Aubrey is to kickers, as to Steph Curry is to three point shooting. - I like it. - I think before his career's over, I think he holds the all-time record as long as he's field goal. - Three, two, four, three, Will Levis. Brandon can't talk. I hope you didn't like Bryce Young because Will Levis is better than Bryce Young. If you like Bryce Young, you can't come in me. 5798 Jawan Jennings should get a game ball. I don't give game balls to losers. So that's why I didn't give Jawan Jennings a game ball. - Same thing with me. That's the same way when you look at it. - It's like 173, yeah. - Yeah, tournaments and otherwise, with the exception of Jerry West one time, you don't give the game balls with the MVPs to lose. - Yeah. Good game, but a loser. Doesn't get a game ball. 0979 game ball to Justin Fields. Steelers are rolling, man. I didn't see that coming. Their defense is really good, and Fields is doing a good job. - They know how to use them, right? They're Arthur Smith for as much as this was who he was in Atlanta and he got criticized for it, but he's utilizing his run game and he's getting the most out of Justin Fields. - Yeah, these skill players fit what he likes to do. They're more than he did in Atlanta. - Justin Fields is the perfect Arthur Smith. - Yeah, yeah, he's perfect, yeah. - I'm sure George Pickens doesn't like the Arthur Smith offense a whole lot. - No, it's working. - Neither of the fantasy managers. - Yeah, that's tough. All right, those are our game balls. Let's get to our week three overreactions. What are you overreacting to now that week three is over in the NFL. 713-780-3776, it's the B's on ESPN 97-5 and ESPN 92-5. - Hey, right now I want to tell you all about Stella Rosa wines. They have just a ton of different flavors that will go with just about anything you're serving. And especially now when we're in season and we're talking about having people over to watch games, college football, pro football, baseball playoffs around the corner. And you want people to come over as important as it is to serve the right foods. And we know you got the chips and the dips, the pizza and the wings and all the finger foods. You're also going to want to get all the options in terms of the beverages that you serve. Sure, the beer and the hard liquor are great, but sometimes you want to pace yourself and you want something that's refreshing, that's really going to hit the palate well that people are going to enjoy. And that's why I recommend Stella Rosa wines. You serve them chilled, there's a variety of different flavor profiles and they all are going to go great with whatever food you're serving. And you don't have to worry about pacing yourself because they're going to do that for you. You can enjoy them throughout the day, you're not going to have too much, and you're going to just love the crisp quality taste that you get out of Stella Rosa wines. They're fantastic and they're available at your local retailers. Your liquor stores, your grocery stores, and you can pick up a couple of bottles, serve them chilled and your people that you're coming over, your guests are going to love them. You should check them out today, the next time you go to your local retailer and grab a couple bottles for your next viewing party. People are going to love them, you're going to be the hero for bringing them and you're going to understand that you can really spice up your party in a variety of ways but you can really improve it with Stella Rosa wines. And always, celebrate responsibly. (upbeat music) (upbeat music) - You listening to The Killer Beans with Joel Blanket, Jeremy Branno. - On ESPN 97-5 and 92-5. - Broadcasting live from the Veritex Community Bank Studios. - What are your week three overreactions? 713-780-3776, what do you have like her? Overreaction to me is the first one that I've brought up for Cash and Attraction. I just think that there's too much overreaction to the Cincinnati Bengals. I think they're going to make the playoffs. I think they're still a really good football team. I like more of what I saw against Kansas City in the fact that they looked like that they were in control of that game. I think they should just shut their mouths more and play better football than run their mouths before games and then get shown up. But I think with Chase and Burrow and the fact that they have a lot of talent on that team, I believe they're going to make the playoffs. I believe they're going to make a run. And I believe that all these people that are riding them off for dead may be speaking a little too soon. - Yeah, I just don't love their defense this year. They're running game with Moss and Brown. I think they took a huge drop off. Now, we've kind of questioned Jamar Chase. Chase was great yesterday. Got a couple of touchdowns. First time they had Higgins too. And then that Andre Yosovia guy, like I guys go nuts. How good he's been. I just don't like their defense though. And they're open for me too much. I think they've dug their grave too deep. It's possible. You think they miss mix mix mix in now? - Yeah, I do. - Yeah, I think so too. I think that though, like Shannon Sharp this morning was saying that Burrow needed to do more that he wasn't good enough last night. He did everything he could possibly do last night. He didn't turn the ball over through 300 plus, was all over the field. And Chase was good too. I'm not going to put the blame on Joe Burrow. - He needs his roots to come through quite frankly. - Sorry, I'm doing it. - That's it. That's the last one. - I mean, they scored 26. I don't think they, if they had to put it, it wasn't very often. It wasn't like the Bengals offense played poorly. You mentioned Jamar Chase went off. I mean, you scored 26 at home. You would expect the defense to hold them under that and for you to get the win. So yeah, I definitely would put that more of the defense than any offense of performance. - My week three over reaction, people are still telling me Trevor Lawrence is overrated. He's not even overrated anymore. Because how is Trevor Lawrence rated? Trevor Lawrence is rated as a guy who never lived up to the hype. He's rated as one of the worst quarterbacks in the NFL. If we're being honest with where Trevor Lawrence is rated by people who keep up with the NFL, he's no longer overrated. He's properly rated as a bottom third quarterback in the NFL. Now is it overpaid? Absolutely he's overpaid. Did he not live up to the hype? Absolutely didn't live up to the hype. But I can't say that he's no longer overrated. I think he's rated properly because we've caught up to who Trevor Lawrence actually is. - No, I completely agree. I mean, you and I would get into this a year ago or so and I just haven't ever been convinced enough to believe in him as being a guy that can be that guy. Do I love it? Because Jacksonville's in the division, they already gave him the monster contract. Now they got to live with it absolutely. But Trevor Lawrence, man, you got to be better. And I think the leash is going to get short here in a little bit. You got to figure it out quickly. - All right, what you got, bro? Let's go over here. - I think the Cowboys are going to absolutely flame out here over the next few weeks. - Slam it. - Just bad vibes. They start off one or two, Micah Parsons. So I kind of get the feeling Micah Parsons going to talk his way out of town. The way he goes on his own podcast and other podcasts and trash the team at times, I have a feeling if they start off really poorly, which I think they will, that they might decide to go ahead and move on. Do you look at their upcoming schedule? You're on the road, they're on the road, the next two, the Giants who obviously just played well and it gets the Browns. The Steelers of three, you know after that, they got the-- - Could you say that with a straight face? They're going to, at New York is a daunting game. - You're saying that with a straight face? - Giants played better last week, that's all I'm saying. I would say if it was in Dallas, I would mark that up as a win of the Cowboys. The fact that it's on a short week on a Thursday in New York, I think that's a toss-up game. But after that, I mean, even if you're given the winning it's a Giants, you have the Steelers on the road, Lions, 49ers at the Falcons, Eagles, Texans at the commanders. It's a more difficult schedule for the Cowboys than we would have thought. I think they're going to flame out here, miss the playoffs and you can see a guy like Michael Parsons can trade it. - I think the one thing that you really got to focus on here is just like we're talking about with the Texans, you can have a bad week, but the way that the bad week happened, the fact that there's looks like there's a whole bunch of internal strife, a whole bunch of finger pointing, a whole bunch of people talking about guys not putting in the best effort, coaches need to do more. That thing could implode so quickly 'cause McCarthy is not that guy that's going to be able to reel them all in and lead his men like that. I think the Cowboys could be in for a world to hurt the rest of the season. - They lost by three to Baltimore. I think I need to chill out a little bit. - But it's called overreaction, sure. - Chill out of, they lost by three to the Ravens. You're one of the better teams of the NFL. - After the Saints used to drag them all over the field. - It's a better reaction for last week than the fact that they lost out. They did lose, they were losing by quite a bit. - Yeah, they were getting strummed in this game too. - But they pulled within three. I think that they'll be okay. Now do they miss the playoffs? I think that's certainly in play, but I don't think the Cowboys are going to flame out and trade Mike Apparsis. - I don't think they're trading Mike Apparsis. - Yeah, I think they got real pro. - And I think they'll be competitive. Maybe not make the playoffs, but I think they'll be competitive throughout the year. Like they're a solid team. They're solid. - Talk about running game. - Their running game is poor. I will give you that. Rico Doudl, I think he'll come on and be okay. - If they love him, beak. - Yeah, they need to let him be 'cause he's got a better chance of being good than Zeke does at this stage of his career. All right, seven, one, three, seven, eight, zero, three, seven, seven, six. Let's go out to the HR and P, listener line, Keith, what's your overreaction? - Overreaction Tuesday, despite what everybody's saying about Justin Tucker, Kicker the Raven, three misses so far in three games. He missed one against the Cowboys. He's over two from 50 plus. He used to be automatic. He is not overrated. He is not overrated. So if people are saying he still has some left in the tank. - He's not washed, says Keith. - Kicker ticks on the Killer Beast. - Who to thunk? - I don't think he's washed. I don't think he's had that sauce. - I don't think it's argued. I think he's the best place kicker in the history of the league. - But that doesn't mean that he has a good chance of making a kick this weekend. - I would bet on it. - That's back to baseball. - But I would bet on it. - Yeah, I don't think he's washed. I mean, everybody at some point in their career gets washed. I don't think Tucker's washed yet, even though he hasn't been his best. - Sometimes, kickers have brain farts. We know how emotional and mental the kicking game can be. He's just lucky enough. He hasn't really had one of those spells yet, but he could be having one now. - Yeah, I would say Keith is right there. 9229, I don't think I'm overreacting. The Titans will have the number one overall pick and next year's draft, and I'm a Titans fan. They look bad. They look bad. We'll let us look awful. - I think the surprising thing is the Patriots look better than we thought that they were gonna look, but I think that Carolina and Tennessee are definitely in the conversation for worst team in the NFL. - The way Carolina looked though? - Well, if any adult can do that for a couple of weeks. - I think they can win a few games. - Tennessee's defense is good enough that they should be able to win a couple of games, but what we'll love is just makes a bunch of horrible decisions. - He does make some bad decisions. Brandon T, fans are overreacting to the Texans lost last week. They'll be just fine in a playoff contender. playoff contenders sure because they're in a bad division, but I think that the areas of weakness for the Texans are worth your concern. - Yeah, I think that they basically, the way the season has started and with how bad the rest of the teams in the division, they're gonna have to fight long and hard to lose the division. They're gonna be a playoff team, but are they the kind of team that we look at and say can contend for far more than that? That remains to be seen 'cause they got a lot to clean up. - 5, 7, 9, 8 cash to trash. Parsons get traded for the trade deadline trash in that one. Brian would cash it. He's all in on that. Let's get to our car wreck of the day. What's your nomination for the car wreck of the day? 7, 1, 3, 7, 8, 0, 3, 7, 7, 6, it's the B's on ESPN 97-5 and ESPN 92-5. - Hey, if we go to the break and we're in for Banderford Air, go to banderfordair.com.

There's a lot that you cannot get done or do once it gets to that point. That's why you deal with Banderford Air because they take care of everything for you. They put everything in writing. Say you have something wrong with your air conditioner. They'll write up a written estimate for you that will let you know what it will cost to repair and put in a new part.

In the playoff playoff. AJ Blueball, the game one starter for the Sugar Land spacers. This is Fromber of out as his music. Could be a big day in the organization. Could get a game one win in Sugar Land. Could clench a division admit it made. Fromber 14 and 7, 285 ERA Logan Gilbert opposite of Fromber 8 and 11, 324 ERA. You nailed it yesterday with Hunter Brown with the exception of one critical element. - I didn't answer that and I think you did. - No, I said I hope they do. - I think you said it was good enough for a win. - I said six and one. You said it was a good enough a win. I said I hope so. - I think you said it's good enough a win. - We'll have to check the tape. - We'll do that later. We'll do that in post. What does Fromber do tonight? - He's going seven innings of shutout baseball. - Is it good enough for the win? - It's good enough for a win, Joel. - Hope so. - No, no, no, no, no, no, don't, don't, don't. - Yeah, they're winning tonight. - There we go. - I think behind, Joel Blake, you're insane. - Yeah. - Oh, no, I'm-- - Gear on tea! - I brought him foot and mouth that they're not going to win tonight. I'm doing it for the city. All right, let's get to our car wreck of the day. (upbeat music) (screaming) - You all right? - I'm right. He's broken, the ball's coming through. (screaming) - Get low, you prick. Where's my (beep) money? This is the car wreck of the day. - 8-8-3-5 says that it's Coco Carasquia. Please, Jeremy, that's not what it says on my prompter. My teleprompter says differently. I only read what's on the prompter. I'm Charles Barkley and I'm a, I'm Ron Burgundy. I can only read what the prompter tells me. 8-8-3-5. All right, what is your car wreck of the day, Blake? - It starts with the Astros bullpen last night. I mean, there's a variety of different ways. We could just say the Astros again, 'cause the offense wasn't great either, but the Astros bullpen was awful after you wasted a, just an outstanding performance by Hunter Brown. A one run game was quickly turned into a game that was out of reach. - Yeah, I get the offense more blame than the low leverage guys in the bullpen though. Like, the spot I went to the low leverage guys 'cause they were trailing 100 Brown left the game. - But those low leverage guys are supposed to keep it somewhat within reach. - They're not very good. - Exactly what they did. - I don't wanna see any of these pitchers in the playoffs. And you probably won't in games that you're leading or are close. Like you're not gonna see Caleb Ferguson in a closer game that you're leading. You're not gonna see Org King in a game that you're leading or is close. And Seth Martinez got option down today. - Hey, you're not gonna see Seth. Unfortunately, from where he used to be the last year and a half, Seth Martinez ain't gonna be on his playoff roster. - Yeah, so like none of those guys, I think are critical to the Astros playoffs. You might see them, but I don't think they'll be used in games that are within reach, quite frankly. I wanted to give it to the, you see Dan Campbell who was docked by his daughter's classmate, some dude on Snapchat. - That's how they found out where they lived. - Yeah, his, the daughter's classmate, a man, a boy. He put it on Snapchat after they lost the game in the playoffs, posted the address. - Oh, I thought this was the new house. - No. - Yeah, that's, that's me. - He was announcing he was gonna move but was about a week ago. - Yeah, nearly, nearly that's all it used. - We found out the source now, okay. - Yeah, he's already moved. - He's already, he's already moved. He moved in the off season. But the Dockser was his, was his daughter's classmate after he was mad for Lions and bad person. - And did he comment or something like say, just kick the damn ball or do something that they should have done? - Said that he was bad that they went for it. - Yeah. - And then people were showing up to the Dan Campbell house that night. Dan Campbell wasn't there, obviously. But his daughter was, so it spooked him. - That's not good. - Scared him a little bit. - Yeah, the Dockser, you're in car wreck of the day. What do you got, Brian? - One hate fever to the Bengals defense. I mean, you can't give up no puns. - What was the first thing you said? - Hate fever. - 'Cause it's legit paying up door. - Car wreck of the Eagles out too. Hate fever still be the thing. The next one though, it has to be the Bengals defense. No puns, no turnovers at home against a rookie quarterback and Cliff Kingsbury's coordinator as their coordinator. And that's not a great look for the Bengals defense. - What's wrong with Cliff? - Yeah, he's a bit of imaginative. - He's a bit of an unimaginative. - What? - I know it's hard to get beyond this list. - I know it's worth it, but that's part of it. It's on the Bengals defense. That's why they're car wreck of the day. - He threw an interception to a myth. Threw an interception to Dr. Death, who has killed the career Trevor Lawrence and has killed the career of two a tongue of a wah. - And Trevor Lawrence has to be on this list. - Yeah, put him on the list. - He was awful. - It's fine. - I'm adding it. - Throw him on the list. - You just made the list. - I think Doug Peterson probably could be on this list. - The Jags period. - Jags period? Now they're gonna win this weekend. - Oh God. - Oh, so I can only read what the teleprompter tells me. Sounds like something Larametunzel would say. Well, just call me Jeremy Tumsil also. - By the way, Glenn came to your defense and says, "His name is Coco, that's all." - Oh, so he doesn't go by his last name. - I guess not. So it's just Coco. So you're fine. - So who was the genesis of this read? - Copy and paste from Glenn's text. - 'Cause Lynn was the genesis. - Yeah. - Okay. - I don't try to infer soccer matters. I just take it from straight from Glenn. - Yeah. There you go. - Coco be here. - I do want to hear the interview. I just read the, I just read the teleprompter. - All right. What's winning? - Uh, Astros again? - I was gonna say Jags. - Lawrence? - Sure. - There you go. You guys broke the tie. - Dr. Death? Blonde headed quarterbacks? - Blonde headed quarterbacks. - Yeah, okay. - So we're going Jags or Trevor Lawrence? - Jags. - Okay. Congratulations Jags and Phil first win of the year. Does it for us?
