Transcript

Welcome to the Double Eye Show Fantasy Island Fantasy Football Edition. This is our Sunday reactionary under the Influence edition. Tonight with me is RW King and I'm sweet team. We're gonna go over a lot of stuff that happened this Sunday. Lot of crazy shit that happened. Hey King, you wanna tell everybody what the hell you got going on and what this show's gonna be all about?

Yeah, no doubt. To, it's Sunday night, all the games just ended. We just finished the night game. So what we're gonna do is we're gonna be throwing out a reactionary show for you. Let you know right now who really did well today. Obviously we don't integrate that too much in our regular. So a lot of people been hitting us up for some kind of reaction back on the, you know, the guys who did well the week before.

So we're gonna go in and do that immediately, right after all the Sunday night games. It doesn't include Monday nighters. So you still got New Orleans in Baltimore? That isn't included in it, we got a lot on tap tonight and we're just gonna get to it right now. Bono's not gonna be with us tonight in the first show.

He's outta state right now. But our first show's just gonna be me and t. And what we're each gonna do right now is pick out our biggest stu of the day. So right now t's gonna go ahead and talk about his biggest stu of the day. Who is your Stu of the day?

Oh, well, you know me. I'm a Chicago homer, so it's gotta be Justin Fields for me. This kid, not only did he take a huge step like we thought he would be doing. But let's just face it, he just broke an NFL record. He just broke Michael Vick's record for the most rushing yards in a single game by a quarterback.

This kid was unstoppable today. Yes, I know. They lost by three points. I'm not even gonna get into the controversy of the refs, not making that call on the past interference at the end, but let's just talk about the performance that Justin Fields put together. He had 123 yards passing. Three touchdown. One to Moony, one to commit, or two to commit, excuse me, and then rushing 178 yards on the ground and another touchdown kid had four touchdowns on the day.

It's just this kid is special. You know, King, you and I both are Chicago Bears fans. We've been saying this for a lot of years now that you know, the Chicago Bears stink, Chicago Bears stink. We'd never have a quarterback, and then all of a sudden we draft this kid and we both said, This kid is special. And we never had anything to back that up until the past few weeks.

And then today, today just kind of blew it out of the water today. I, I couldn't believe it. I was telling, you know, Bombo today because I know he's out of state, but we were, you know, kind of chatting back and forth during the game and I said, I'm almost in a weird space because I, this is unchartered territory for me being a Bears fan.

Never have a quarterback that I can kind of rally behind and be proud of and kind of just, I don't know, just kind of talk. And all of a sudden this kid's having a crazy day and I'm like, This is weird for me to be able to be praising my Chicago Bears quarterback. So I gotta love what this kid's doing. I love what this staff is doing.

This is awesome shit for me.

No, I, And you're right, a hundred percent. And I think Justin Peels was probably the performer of the day. You know, and here's the thing, I don't get Tee, Now they're throwing the stat around, right? It was the greatest single game performance, but it's not the most rushing yards ever by a quarterback.

He missed that by, I think eight yards. No, three. Three yards.

Yeah, Colin Kaepernick had 181, but why don't they count that? Just cuz it's a playoff game.

Yes. That's a playoff game.

And, and you know what? Whatever it was, man, it was a hell of a day. And, and just to throw a little sauce on your stats there, t it was a 60 yard touchdown. It wasn't like a two yard touchdown. This fucker. Yeah.

So that's what I'm saying. You know what I mean? It was, it was a long touchdown. This guy's just got wheels. He makes shit happen. And if it wasn't for a block punt, return for a touch. the bears probably would've won the game,

Absolutely. And a lot of people started picking them

they're taking

the game.

you know, And like we said, you know, the, the team looked like it was fire sailing a little bit, but you could see the maturation of Justin Fields and you could see him progressing every week.

And they're like giving him a little bit more to take on every week. So hopefully by the end of the season, you know, maybe his weapons, you know, they mature a little bit and Darnell Mooney caught a nice dime today. He was a little bit more involved because Chase Claypool was acting as the one, so it frees him up a little bit,

Absolutely, and we, we kind of figured that was gonna happen.

you know, and, and still you just gotta contend with an offense that's just ridiculous.

On the other side, they gave up their pass rushers, so obviously Miami on the other side, Tua went off. Another 300 yard game, three touchdowns. You know, Jeff Wilson came in, I think he was your waiver wire of the weak tee,

He

what I mean? So if he was on the waiver wire and you picked him up, he was the running back in that backfield.

He, he un he up planted fucking moster cuz I watched most of the game and he got ATU at the end of low passing Teddy.

He

So he's, he's in integrated in the offense and Tyre kills Tyre kill, you know. But man,

Well, little, little node to Bombo, little node to Bombo cuz Bombo did call out Justin Fields as being, you know, that wave wire pickup. And, and I went head to head in a, in a different, in one of my fantasy leagues against Bombo today. And I got crushed because of fields, cuz he has fields and it crushed me.

Well, actually I had fields in DFS in two of my dfss today.

Oh man,

You know what I mean? So yeah, I did really well in dfs.

you did.

I've been crushing in DFS the last couple weeks. Dude, I've been killing it. Well, the, today was a $2 entry and I got 16 bucks back, which is decent.

Oh, that's

in a, in a shitty week, like this week I scored 140 something points, you know what I mean?

That's not

good for dfs. That's not

Well, that's good. That's good for this week, especially cuz this was by Mcgon dude. There was six teams on a buy. There was only two afternoon games. So, you know, there was just no options, you know, But I'm gonna talk about my stut of the day, and it's gotta be Joey mixing, man.

Mm.

You know, Cincinnati finally figured out, Hey guys, let's just run the damn ball. You know, finally, you guys are stopping us. And they're, they're not letting us throw the ball like we want to. Fucking Jamar Chase blew out his fucking hip, so let's run the ball. And Joe Mixon ran the shit out of the ball, dude, 22 times for 153 yards, four touchdowns on the. He also had four receptions for 58 yards and a touchdown, five total touchdowns today. No one else had to do anything. It was a Joe Mixing show

it was.

and the reality was is he just was the best player on the field. Nobody else even touched him today. And hats off to Joe Mix and Manny tore it up. And I, I think going forward, you know, you just gotta be careful with games like this and this. These are the games that skew the season like we talked about. right? This guy's gonna end up with 12 touchdowns or 14 touchdowns, and he got five in one day. You know what I mean? So it's, it's one of those things where you gotta be careful too.

but

gonna throw out some names.

all right.

Yeah, I mean, the reality is they just, they're not underperforming. They've been overperforming the last couple weeks and today really, PJ Walker showed what he was, He's not ready for the. He's a backup guy and I mean PJ Walker shit to bed hard today. You know, he went three for 10 for nine yards and two interceptions before he got benched. And Bakker came in in a half and threw like a buck 40 for a couple touchdowns. You know what I mean? So we'll see what happens going forward, but I think PJ Walker's about that and they gave him as much rope as they could.

But let's write a couple other names of guys who performed today, Tee, and we'll talk about a couple of 'em. You. running backward wise. I wanna talk about your boy Travis at the end looked really good. Little bit of a slow start, you know what I mean? But came on at the end but towed it 28 times 109 with two Tudies, two catches for 17.

So he had a big day to me and I think one of the biggest days, you know, this week, you know also, Kenneth Walker, the third again, 26 carries 109, two Teddys. But the thing that's making this guy impressive to me t is that he's closing the games for them. You know when at the end of the game, when the other team knows they're gonna run, he runs and he either gets first downs or he gets that touchdown to seal the game.

He did it the last two weeks and this guy is just a machine.

Okay.

So you know the other guy, I think the other top guy to me was Damien Pierce, who played on Thursday night against the Eagles. and they ran right at the Eagles and smashed them right in the mouth and they got one of the better run defenses in the league.

And that kid ran for 20, for a buck 39. He didn't get any tds. And I think that's gonna be the knock on Damien Pierce. I think that they wanna save him for the rundowns. They're gonna give him 20 to 25, carries a game. He might get two to four catches or targets a game depending if he gets the catches.

It's the touchdowns. That's gonna be hard on that. Because they just don't score. But out of those guys, man, who do you wanna talk about to you? Who was your guy? Who do you think out of those guys you really liked

Well, I really love what

what they did?

Yeah, I really love what Edan did today. My only concern about him, and it's been my, my biggest knock on him all season is, you know, just dropping that rock and he fumbled again today and we just gotta get this kid to just hold onto the ball. when he's in the game, he's very special.

We saw it today, now, before today. The touchdowns were kind of sporadic for him this year. Kind of like what you were saying about Pierce, but today, two touchdowns. He's averaging like one a game now. now that he's taking over that backfield, he's, he's just, he's d. And I, I think you were telling me this before the, the start of the season, you're like, You gotta watch this kid.

He's gonna be something. He's special. You know, last year should have been his, his year, but you know, he got hurt. So we're really seeing him just emerge and I just really want him to hold onto that ball, but, I, I love, this is two back to back monster games by him. so I, I, I really like Etan. and I really liked today what he did.

you know, not to take anything away from Kenneth Walker, cuz I'm huge on him. I'm, I'm big on Kenneth Walker. I love me. That Walker.

Yeah, no, I'm, I mean both of those guys are studs and really, and, and I wanted to say like, you know, all three of those rookies, cuz really Etti end's a rookie. He didn't play last year. So all three of those rookies are extremely impressive. And for what they're doing, fuck, they're amazing. You know what I mean?

But let's talk about receivers a little bit, cuz there really wasn't any other quarterbacks that stood out. Everybody really stood around that. 250 to 260, Sorry. This is the Under the Influence show. Well, my homes fucking went

other, Mahomes 4 46.

But he threw the fucking ball 65 times dog or something like that, dude.

You know what I mean? So it's like, yeah, they're not running the ball. And he went into overtime, you know, he had three 80 going into overtime and he got 40 on the last play on a junk play from Hardman where they just, instead of throwing a hail Mary, they tried to do some screen shit and he got tackled 40 yards down field at the end of the game.

So he patted his stats a bit. I mean, the most of these guys this week were just like two 40 a tudy, a couple tudies, You know what I mean? There was really no huge games from these guys, you know? And I think the only other guy that stood out was Tua, you know? But he's got the machines going, dude. And that's so crazy.

Those two receivers, and I wanna talk about them a little bit right now as Tyre Kill, and still even Jalen Waddle today. Jalen Waddle, he only had 80 some yards receiving, but he had a. You know, Tyre Hill caught a ATU today for the first time since week two, but that guy still had like 130 some yards. You know, 143 yards or something.

Today, seven catches 143 in a touchdown. This guy is just my machine.

He

smokes, man.

absolutely on

mean, every week, I mean, it's like we talked about T, right? I could have both those guys on my team every week, and they're scoring big every. That's crazy. How, how does a quarterback support that? You know what I mean?

don't, And you know, now here's the thing though. When you look at, at a guy like Tua, and you look at that receiving core, to your point there, King Tua under throws the ball on every fucking. His, his, his deep passes are highly underthrown, but because he's got a guy like Hill that's just so good, it doesn't matter.

He'll just gets that ball

you know, saying that today he had a wide open Jalen Waddle, that he overthrew him and the DB caught up to him for about a 30, 40 yard reception at least. If not a touchdown. If he would've let him. Cuz he had so much space.

right.

You know what I mean? So, Yeah, no, I get it. You know, But the other part is, and that's what everyone else isn't getting to his releases so fast.

When these guys come off the line and hit that slant, they get that 10 yard recept. That probably no other quarterback can throw to them cuz it's just so fast and it gets there so quick, the other guys can't get on 'em. So it's a give and take,

it

know what I mean? And I get it. You know what I mean? So, but I mean the other

two guys, I was gonna say, hey, real quick. Those two guys are some of the best at yards after the catch. So to your

just, they're so fast. And somebody today, and I forget who on a podcast or something this afternoon, I was listening or TV show or something, made a comment and it sort of was right. They, they reminded them a little bit of the Rams team, that greatest show on turf. were just faster than everybody, you know what I mean?

And it was just like at every position, they were just faster than every. so, and Jeff Wilson and Moster. Those guys are speed guys. You know, even though they blow themselves out and they get flat tires all the time, they are speed guys. But I think the reality is that, you know, Tyre Hill had a big day.

Devonte Adams huge day, 10 catches a hundred forty six, two touchdowns, but they lost again. Man. Raiders are just as shambles. Jacksonville ended up beating. Mediocre decent days for Christian Kirk. For for Trevor Lawrence. You know, Trevor Lawrence again, only one touchdown, but it's really not what they were doing et he in with the two touchdowns there. So, I mean, the team's winning. I think he's learning how to win. You know, Trade deadline hit, they got Calvin Ridley, so I think next year is gonna be a bigger step for him. But you know, I think Devonte Adams had a chance to really do some things at the end of the game, and he didn't really step up for me and probably could have had more than 200.

Probably, I mean, they had

I saw that he didn't fight for that were at least 20 yard chunks, you know?

Yeah. Yeah. I, I mean, he only caught 10 for 17 targets, so

game for the Raiders? He saw:

were, they were

they had like 11 in the first half. That means they only had six in the second half.

They really changed their offense up from half to half. And I think that's their problem cuz they're a tale of two halves every, every game.

Yeah, they make some weird adjustments in the second half, and it's almost as if they don't have an identity right now. I just don't know what the Raiders,

don't know what they are. Yeah, I agree man. I think that's the best way to put it, Tee.

Yeah. But I mean, hats off to, to Devonte Adams for just, I mean, having such a big. , you know, and that's the

Yeah. You know, But

we've been wanting and we've been

probably would've rather taken the win than had the big game. But Jacksonville hats off to you for sticking into it. Justin Jefferson had a big day. And you know what, man, I just gotta say this dude. Washington's D is no joke. Their pass rush, their run.

They run. Defenses is

are fucking ridiculous

They're

and they beat you up the whole game.

Kirk Cousins had to go out a couple times. They just beat the shit out of him. So Justin Jefferson, that was a great game from him. Seven catches a buck, 15 and Atu, he had one run where he got a crucial first down, I think almost a seal of the game. So it was good for him. And I think the last guy will just mention as far as stead receivers, man is, What are you laughing at?

Asshole.

because it better be who I think it is.

It's Cooper Cub Doug. Okay.

Wait, but why? Why are, why am I laughing about Cooper Cup?

because he was my, my sit of the week, Doug,

Yes,

I fucking, Yeah, I took it in the ass right now. I'm just saying this, but I'm gonna break down the number to you, bro. Okay. Homeboy got eight catches for 127 yards and a touchdown. His touchdown was 69 yard. Okay. You with me?

I'm

He had one other catch for 34 yards.

Mm.

two catches are 103 yards. That means besides those, he had six catches for 24 yards.

Yep.

Even if he doesn't get that teddy catch, I'm golden on my sit. Doug. I was one catch away just saying. But I, I, It's pathetic. It's pathetic what the Rams and the Bucks do. Cause they played each other today and the Rams gave the game away at the end to Tommy Touchdown, let him be a hero again and get all excited.

And he threw the ball 60 fucking times today as well. And he didn't even get 300 yards. You know what I mean? So they're just, their offenses are pathetic and really not much to talk about. Their receivers aren't doing good other than Cooper Cup on either. No running backs to speak of in either of those offenses, so it's just a little bit of a crapshoot over there.

But out of those receivers tee, who do you want to talk about? Devonte Tyreek, Justin Jefferson or Cooper Cup.

You know, I think it kind of, One guy that we haven't really talked a lot about is Justin Jefferson, cuz we kind of went into Devonte and Tyreek already just finished up Co. Cooper Cup. I really love me some. Justin Jefferson. I mean this guy's top three in the league, obviously, and he just keeps stacking these hundred yard games every single game.

I mean, it's just. It's just awesome the way he puts it together. It's not like what you just said about mixing when you know, at the end of the year when you look at how skewed the numbers are gonna be. No. Justin Jefferson puts some, some games together and he's pretty consistent with it now. There's gonna be those weeks that, and I think we've said this before, is where he just gets.

Well for, I don't know if it's the matchup or if it's Kurt Cousins just having a bad game or whatever for whatever the reason is, he'll have those, those games every now and then, but they're few and far between. And if you got a guy like Justin Jefferson on your roster, fuck you gotta love it as a fantasy owner because it's pretty consistent with points that's steady points for you, right?

I know I have him in two of my leagues and I love it. The only time I worry about it is when he's on a bi week and he's already had his buy, so you know, he's healthy. He doesn't get hurt. You know, knock on wood right here. No, knock on wood, but I love me some Jeff and Justin Jefferson. I love what he did today.

you know, the touchdowns are the only thing I, I gotta say that is few and far between. For him. He doesn't get a lot of touchdowns cuz usually when they're in the red zone, they're going after looking at for theand. And now that they got hawkinson as a target, I think that's gonna be the guy that they're gonna look for too.

Yeah, Jefferson stacking those hundred yard games all the time.

No, you're right. And I think to me, I think. you know, watching the last few games and obviously he started out smoking hot, you know what I mean? But even in those games when he just to me could have went for 200 yards, so easy and just got shut down, I think his obstacle and what's going to his hindrance and what his restriction is is Kurt Cousins.

I really do. I think he can only do so much with Kurt Cousins,

Yeah.

cuz Kurt Cousins is what he is, you know. I, I mean, I hat's off to the new coach, but it's even like I told you too, I think the bigger year for him is gonna be next year because I think he'll have a year under his belt in this offense.

He'll get it a lot better. So will Kurt Cousins, they'll feed off each other a little bit more and hopefully the other guys will mature a little bit. They gotta do something on the other side of him though, dude, cuz Steven is just, he's a, Oh my God. He gets hurt like four or five times in a. You know, he's just so pathetic right now.

So, you know, they get

somebody breathes on 'em.

so, I mean, and you look at how they utilized Hawkinson, you know, obviously that was another big trade at the deadline. Hawkinson went over to the Vikings and, fuck man, homeboy balled out nine outta nine targets, nine targets, nine receptions for 70 yards. You know, he was a, an integral part of the offense.

So if they're going to use him like that, this guy's, his fantasy production's gonna be up there, bro.

And that's

they threw it up.

with them not even knowing the

him, does it well, okay. What they were saying was, I guess the thing that sort of helped him this week was he had already played Washington this year, so he didn't have to focus at all on their defense.

He could just learn the offense this week. So it helped him a lot and basically every play that they had him in was basically, and ran, was a play that he knew. He only knew it was so many plays. You know, I mean, whatever it was, his talent was there and if they utilize him like that and he's catching the ball like that, I mean, I'm just saying both those tight ends that got drafted out of Iowa today did really well.

No offense had 97 yard receiving as well for Seattle. You know, it was basically the him, Kenneth Walker in a little bit of sprinkling of Tyler locket over there. But I mean, yeah, it's, I think Justin Jefferson needs. and he needs help at the quarterback position. You know, maybe not completely, but I think he's limited there and has a ceiling.

But I think also on the other side of him, cause I think dealing's done,

Oh

get somebody else going

yeah. Get a look, you know, in the draft or somebody to try to take some

if you can. If not, dude free

you

there. Get a solid number two guy, man.

true.

what I mean? You can get a good number three. Who should be a number two? But there's just studs. You know what I mean? You can. So I, I mean at this point, man, you know we talked about all these guys that did well to you, but this section is called gf y, Bro, go fuck yourself cuz you know, we're tired of these dudes.

You know, there's a lot of them out there. And we'll say it, man. You know, there were some guys that would match up today. And that's the thing, Tee, right? It sometimes these matchups are supposed to carry us and you know, we're hurting a little bit because of a buy. So we're playing some bench. But some of our studs who've been studs have great matchups and they just shit to bed today.

You know? And I'm just saying, Ramon Stevenson 15 carries 60 yards, three catches for 10. Yeah, you gotta tudy to salvage the day. But come on, bro, You play the fucking shitty ass indie team that everyone's just beaten up. But you couldn't do anything else. I mean, Josh Jacobs really 17, carries for 60. When you're supposed to carry the shit outta the ball.

His first five carries. Were like for a negative three yards. I'm just saying. I'm just saying bro. You know the other one too is James Connor. Oh, he's ready. He's gonna come back. They give him the ball only seven times. He gets 45 yards. But give him the damn. You know What about Justin Herbert? Dude, 43 times he threw the ball for 245 yards.

One touchdown, one interception. Yeah, I know all his guys are hurt, but come on, bro. Tom Brady, 58 times, 280 yards in a touchdown. Get the fuck out. But the big, go fuck yourself today. T goes to the Green Bay Packer's. Because you know what? Aaron Jones, AJ Dillon, and Aaron Rogers, Go fuck yourself. You played the shittiest ranked defense in the league and you fucking shit the man. I mean, I don't know. I don't know what else to say t but go fuck yourself. Those dudes. Those dudes aren't playing on any of my teams the rest of the year. I'm just saying after you did that today, cuz what, what could you trust them for? Man?

Right. And you have Dylan. You have

play him a lot, man. I liked him this year,

I know. And we were all high on him.

it's just a shit offense. It's just a shit quarterback. It's just a shit, everything, dude. So, I mean, unless you wanna argue that dude, that's the big go fuck yourself. Today is the Green Bay Packers, and I love it being the inaugural go fuck yourself being a Green Bay Packer's offense. They can just go fuck themselves to you.

What do you think about?

No, I love it. You know, being a Chicago Bears fan. Absolutely. I'm there with you. However, I will say this one caveat for Jones and Dylan. Well, Jones got hurt with his ankle, left the game early. . But for both of those guys and that offense right now outside of, you know, that piece of shit, Rogers, think about this because you have such a toxic attitude from Rogers who's supposed to be the leader on your team.

That's what's driving this whole thing. That's what's making this season so shitty for. You know, it's, these guys feed off of how their leader is and their leader is toxic right now. This guy is just fucking bad attitude. You see him on the sidelines, you see him before the games. He just has this surly look.

He's just fucked up in the head right now, and it, and where he goes, the team goes. And so what that kind of attitude is, no wonder why they're doing and performing the way they are.

And there was a play when he threw one of his interceptions, or he got batted on the gold line on fourth down or something, and he's walking out the sidelines and he just screams like a little kid, like, Wow. And he just fucking, like, they're just showing him, you know, like, like flexing his arms really tight and just screaming.

You know what I mean? It's just like, Yep, that's what you get. That extra money really is worth all that right now. Huh? You coulda had Devonte Adams still, and you didn't say, Hey, take care of my boy and I'll take what's left. You know what I mean?

He under threw what would've been a touchdown, completely under, threw a a, a receiver

threw one off of homeboy's head, bro. On the goal line. He din it off his fucking donker.

dude. You can't even put it on the receivers at this point. You

Dude, he daunted it off of homeboy's head. That's all I gotta say. And he was throwing it to a tackle on a tackle eligible, huh? Huh? Really fucking Green Bay sucks. Go fuck yourself. Green Bay. So the next one, we're gonna go, we're gonna talk about tees. We're gonna help our listeners a little bit, and this is gonna be our last bit of the night.

And we're gonna close it up. We're just doing our reaction show again, like we said, under the, I. Because I am under the influence smoking the L Blonde Tito. Shout out to Ellon Tito for your donation. And what we're gonna do is we're gonna talk about, go the better. Watch your ass. Cause you know what man?

What we're starting to see T is we're starting to see defenses flex up. And when teams play these defenses, you know, a couple games, you can say, okay, they get lucky and really shut everyone down. But there's some defenses out there. You gotta be careful. You know a couple of 'em today, the New England D, they just shut down Indie, but they didn't have much there.

The Jets D against Buffalo. Buffalo's a little bit in the ringer right now, man. They got some defenses coming up. You know, this week they played Minnesota and Minnesota's de was flexing up against Washington today. No running game allowed. I mean, not like Buffalo is a running game, but Buffalo ain't get no breathers, man.

So you gotta watch your ass a little bit with these. I think the biggest game coming up this week for me is the Chargers. The Chargers. You better watch your ass against San Francisco's d San Francisco's D is a fucking monster all the way around. Justin Herbert got lucky today against a shitty Atlanta team playing over their head and fucking they won.

Did he see that crazy ass last play Tee where Eckler fumbled? Then the guy from Atlanta picked it up with like 20 seconds to go in the. It's tied. He's on, like going on on the 20 Eckler fumbles. The guy picks it up, runs to about midfield, then he fumbles trying to switch hands, and then the chargers recover. Fucking Justin Herbert throws a fucking dime for like 25 yards and they kick a field go to win as the time expires. Oh my gosh. Now he's gotta play San Francisco out after a buy. Oh, good luck. Good.

yeah,

Yeah, dude, just watch your ass, bro. I, I just gotta say that, man. I just, I sit everybody from fucking the Chargers next week, including Eckler, cuz I think even this week he didn't have that great a game, you know, 50 50, if he was lucky, he got a couple touchdowns, but he fumbled twice in big spots,

he did.

you know what I mean?

So he's getting tired. It's just the, it's human nature, man. So just be careful and watch your. La Chargers next week. Watch your ass.

You know what King? I will say one other thing though. You did call out the Washington's d. Washington's D is for real. They're legit. We've been saying this for a couple weeks now. just you and I talking just offline, we are just talking about this shit. So I really like what Washington's doing and they're playing kind of tough balls.

They're in games because of that D and because Heineke. So I really like what they're doing right.

Well, they, they don't have to blitz, bro. Their defensive line is ridiculous

for just gets that penetration no matter what.

and that's why I have 'em there. You can't run the ball against them and it's really tough on the passing game, the deep passing game, cuz those guys get home and that's why I'm saying you gotta watch what you're doing and they're playing.

The Eagles coming up next week on Monday night. So I think the Eagles are gonna have a little bit of a tough game.

I think so too.

it's a divisional game, you know, So Eagles watch your ass too. Tee's calling it out on you.

Yep.

you Eagles, watch your ass. So Jaylen Hertz, AJ Brown Goddard, you better watch your ass cuz fucking was his pass brush is coming to eat your ass. That's what my boy's saying over there.

All right, King, real quick. Who's the number one running offense in the NFL right now?

Are you asking me my opinion? Or by.

No stats. Who's the number one running

be Chicago.

It is Chicago.

Well, yeah, especially if Justin, Jeff, if Justin Fields had the 180 yards rushing today.

Correct. But even before to going into today, they still were. Now, with that said, though, they struggled against Washington's D, they could not run the ball at all. So I'm just saying, man,

Well, the reality is he didn't even run the fucking ball today except for Justin Fields. Montgomery couldn't run the ball and Herbert really couldn't run the

couldn't. Yeah, they couldn't. So they had a tough day.

So yeah, I mean they're getting a little bit more predictable and I think that's why they have to open it up a little bit more cuz teams are just piling it.

But guys in the box,

Right.

Fields can break that box a little bit, he's gone, you know, with all of his 69 yard touchdown, you know, or whatever it was. 60 yard touchdown.

But Washington, I mean, they're, they're legit, so, Yeah, exactly. Eagles, watch your ass.

Better. Watch your ass Eagles. I'm just saying. So, all right, man. That's gonna wrap us up to you. We just wanted to do a quick hit recap, show Sunday nights, you know, we'll be coming at you every once in a while. Maybe not every Sunday night, but hopefully every night. And maybe we can get a bombo involved a little.

He'll be here next week hopefully, and he'll chime in too and hopefully he'll be under the influence. So for Sweet Tea, I'm r w King Under the Influence on the Fantasy Island Reaction. Sunday night show, we are out.
