After Connor Williams went out, the Dolphins were on 4 back up lineman
Wrong Chris. It’s McCarthy bro. Compare GM and operations, and it’s a no brainer. Kyle gets to work with Lynch, Mike has to deal with a shitshow. It’s Mike freaking McCarthy bro. You’re mistaken
Remember when the Dolphins had a creative offense with a HC offensive genius, now it's just let's get Tyreek to 2k yards is what it looks like.. Tyreek would score, Waddle, Cracraft, Cedric Wilson, all would score
Connor's shoes are HUGE
The ravens are not in this video?
No Ravens
No shade to Ahmed, but this show is radically different with Conor cohosting. Much more engaged, nuanced and collaborative conversations about schemes, strategies and personnel. Gotta get him on more consistently.
Portland, JAMAICA in the Building!!! 👑🇯🇲🔥💥🌟⭐💯💎
I don't think the Ravens belong in the group. They are 4th in ppg and 1st in rushing. They should definitely be in the top tier, scoring over 30 ppg while winning 7 of 8.
Need a cornerback ranking immediately
Gardner…Minshew…Madness!!! Hoping he cooks this week💯🍻
If I listen to this entire show, I will be able to leave work before it’s done, good work boys
i think it's time to drop the conversation about brock purdy and the system bs.
and i'm a cowboys fan…
justin fields can't make the throws that purdy does… i don't care what system you put him in.
purdy belongs where he is… he's on a great team (no doubt) but that doesn't take away from what he's been doing.
everybody is waiting for him to have a stinker… so they can throw doubt on him.
stinker or no… i believe he's the real deal.
and i hope we can put him on his a$$ and cause that stinker for him in january.
i would just as soon do it there too… let all them fans walk to their cars sad.
my heart would bleed peanut butter…
Phenomenal summation of Pittsburgh; no creativity, straight up stale🤦♂️
I love the Conor and Simms chemistry. I miss the old podcast days with these two
Conor needs to stay! Especially around fo draft time he should be on once or twice a week!
It’s next to last not second to last.
Stafford showed why he is awesome even in a losing(refs) effort. Better than anyone named(rhymes with hims)….you know😊. McVay has Rams headed to the playoffs with Puka/Kupp/Kyren…woot. watch the Rams make some serious noise from here out…
The Eagles were the best team in the NFL a couple a weeks ago. As Debo said if Purdy were playing last year they would have beat them. This year Purdy was there and they won. Everyone else was there last year including Kyle. Purdy is the most valuable player!!!
Tyreek hills one plus is that he runs fast. Not contested catches or possession. Nothing cerebral or off the charts about the way he plays the game. To me the MVP shows you impact the game through multiple facets of physical and mental processes
Chris Simms is the man
Amazing podcast
There is a new RB on the scene. Bengals rookie RB Chase Brown out of the University of Illinois. He was clocked last Sunday in a game running 22.05 mph. That’s the second fastest speed of any ball carrier this year. So he is fast. Look at the stats. The Bengals running game game is taking off. Joe Mixon looks like he did in 2019! Chase Brown is off of IR and he has something to prove. He was a 5th round pick. I have a feeling he believes he should have been a 1st round pick. The Bengals offensive line is playing at an All Pro level. The weakest link on the line coming into this year was second year LV Cordell Volson. In the last 3 games he has looked like an All Pro guard. He has allowed 0 sacks 0 hurries and 1 pressure in 3 games!! Against the Ateelera defense the Jags 4th ranked rushing defense and the Colts
Defense. He was DOMINATING Deflrest Buckner on Sunday. Same thing with the whole o line. They are all playing phenomenal football. Zach Taylor and OC Brian Callahan have had a revelation in play calling style. He is calling plays that look like the 49ers and Dolphins and some old school Sean Payton Saints. I think when Burrow gets back and gets adjusted to this he will be what Browning is doing now plus 50.
Shanahan shouldn’t be coach of the year. He has 10 All Pros on his football team. 10. Come on now. I think if the Bengals make the playoffs Zach Taylor should get it. Making it to the playoffs from a 5-5 record to the playoffs with a backup QB who isn’t just a backup but has NEVER played an NFL game in his life! Coming into this year and against the Ravens when Browning came
In he had never played an NFL game. Now that is doing something special. What Shanahan is doing is expected with all the All Pros on that team.
Jake Browning is every bit as good and I would argue better than Brock Purdy. In 2017 Browning had Washington in the playoffs and he had over 4000 passing and 47 tds. Yea that guy. He was 4th in Heisman voting. Did Brock Purdy ever do that? And before you say well Brock Lurdy started like 48 football games in college I will tell you Browning started 54 games in college. And he won the PAC 12 twice. And in HS In California this is still a record and yes it’s true I’ve verified it and I don’t know how the hell he did it but his senior year in HS he had 91 tds. Yes I’m serious. His 4years in HS he was a 4 year starter he threw for over 16,000 yards and had 222 tds. Both records that I don’t see ever being broken. The guy had 91 fucking td passes when he was a senior in HS. I’ve never heard of ANYTHING like that before. That’s not only a California record it’s a US HS national record.
Did you say McVay is having a great year? The Rams are 6-7.
Once again Chris says that Josh Allen has no help and again I’m calling bullshit. Again he has a Pro Bowl left tackle a Pro Bowl center and All Pro WR a Pro Bowl TE another 1st round draft pick TE and on defense they got 2 Pro Bowl/All Pro safeties who yea are getting old but are still good they got an All Pro CB and a Pro Bowl MLB who I understand is hurt the rest of the year then they got an All Pro Edge rusher and a another Pro Bowl edge rusher in Leonard Floyd then they got 1st round draft picks all over that d line. Ed Oliver and Rousseau. So don’t tell me Allen has no help because it ain’t true.
Ju Ju Smith Schuster was also a former Pro Bowler. He had a 1400 yard season a few years back. He is a dam good slot receiver. He just has a bit of an attitude.
Simms is a very intelligent man. Keep puffing
FYI-“I’m on a new level” is performed by ASAP Ferg. lol
I love watching and listening to Chris Simms trying to sound cool. 🤣
FLOCK!👿 no sleep til vegas baby!
Falcons last not hearing anyone out
awesome pod
I miss Ahmed because he has the correct length of trouser leg.
Hey NBC, what's up with the 2 minutes ads twice in the middle of the pod on Spotify ? I don't mind the sponsored segments, but this is too much. I pay prenium, I shouldn't have to manually skip ads to listen to my favorite podcast.
From a day one fan, probably your biggest in Canada, who is about to give up.
Let Connor always cohost please
It’s so nice having someone else on this show. I wanna start the “anyone but Ahmed” petition. Definition of buzzkill square
I swear Connor’s right eyebrow is permanently raised. It’s like surgically fixed
Love Conor!! NFLSE to Matt Berry to Chris Simms, this man deserves all the praise he gets.
“Under talked about”. Oh Sims 🤦🏾♂️
