Hello and welcome back to Football 301. I'm your host, Nate Tice, special episode today.

It's Thanksgiving week. So we're doing this a little bit early, and we're doing kind of a combined episode here, hitting a few different things. We're going to do some Monday night football thoughts to start the show. We're going to do a 2026 NFL draft primer because I know some of you sickos are already looking at it and also some of your teams might have one, two or three wins in the win column. So it might as well start peeking towards that draft and see who's interesting. So you can see who can help your team. We're also going to look ahead at the Thanksgiving games. Do a little cheat sheet there

to help me do all that. My guy, I would say every Tuesday, but no, he's my every Thursday guy,

but we're combining these shows and every Sunday guy, Mr. Forverts, Charles McDonald, how you do today, Chuck?

Do it all right, you know, the flying has still been a nightmare this year, so we

was supposed to get home yesterday, and then somehow a flight that was supposed to be at, like,

10 a.m. yesterday, got delayed to 1.30 p.m. today. So we're going to try and get through

this real quick so that my mom doesn't

kill me later today, you know? But other than that, I'm doing a lot better than Bryce Young. I can

promise you that. Yeah. Then the same window of flight, huh? Just a whole, you know, 24 hours later.

Jeez. What the hell's going on here? That's a delay. I's, I thought you just had a really flight. That's what, my goodness, hey, at least. The government to work, that'd be nice. We'll try to figure that out. That'd be nice. Or, you know, just nicely, as they say. That's what they say the issue is people aren't dressing nice enough at airports. They said that'll help it all out. Yeah, so make sure you take that hat off. Like, I know you will. That's apparently the key issue to all this. Now, have a safe flight, have a happy Thanksgiving, and let's get into the show, because I know we've got to cruise. So we'll also do a Black Friday game. I want to mention that as well, Thanksgiving and Black Friday game for our little cheat sheet. But we'll start with Monday night football. Panthers, 49ers, 49ers win this game 20 to 9 pretty handily because the Panthers' offense couldn't get going against this 49ers defense. That is banged up, but has a lot of interesting young

players, and they're playing really hard under Robert Sala. I want to give them a lot of props.

But the Panthers defense got three picks on Brock Purdy pretty early on, but still pull off
