The guys discuss the defense's woeful performance and debate who's to blame for the shortcomings. The conversation then shifts to Jayden Daniels, who left the game early with a hamstring injury. JP and Mitch then discuss the outlook for the remainder of the season following back-to-back losses. The episode ends with Game Balls and Goats, with plenty of the latter.

| 0:12.0 | I mean, what up everybody? What do you want me to do here? |
| 0:15.0 | Here's Barshon Lattimore walking off. |
| 0:17.0 | Blah! |
| 0:18.0 | I mean, this was, we all have our notes from the game, and none of it matters because this team just came up and threw up all over its shoes. So you have your notes from your game, and there's things that matter defensively, particularly. Then Jaden gets hurt, and you're like, oh my gosh, I don't know what's going to happen with any of this now. Now, we saw Jaden in the locker room. He seemed to be in decent spirits, but there's an MRI coming. That's what matters. And defensively, dude, if you want to be mad at Marshall and Ladimore, fire away. You want to be mad at Juan Martin, fire away. But at some point, you've got to wonder what the coaches are doing. Yeah. Like, George Pick is at C.D. Lamber, two of the best receivers of football. You're not getting home with your rush. You leave these guys kind of out so low on the edges. And I'm sure they're frustrated. They should be. I'm taking my tie off. Last week we took our ties off. This is even worse. I might take my shirt off this loss was so bad. Are we just going to start removing clothing after losses? Because this can get real dangerous. I mean, I don't know when the next win is coming for this team because things are ugly right now. But there is a, there needs to be a material change to this defense before they hit the field on Monday night. And do you think that's coming? Is there any reason to think that's going? It can be Joe Witt going from calling games up in the box to coming down on the sideline. Something has to change. And DQ allowed, like, after a performance like that, I got to look at everything. He did get asked by Candy, by Seawall. It was a very good question. Is play calling on the books? And he's like, no, I got the headset on. I'm very involved anyway. But then he's like, but everything's on the books. I mean, the front four can't get pressure. We talked about it all offseason, you know, having the angst, the edge angst. That's showing up particularly with all the injuries. What if Doran's Armstrong's out for the year? Let's just throw That was a very desperate move by this team having Dorence Armstrong active for this game. I'm watching the injuries. What if Doran's Armstrong's out for the year? Let's just throw that out. That was a very desperate move by this team having Dorrance Armstrong active for this game. |
| 2:04.0 | He clearly wasn't able to go. He didn't look like he could really. He was like, they had no other option. Yeah. And that's the problem. It's the same thing, a wide receiver too. Yeah. I mean, I don't know. You mad at Chris Moore for me and Chris Moore? |
| 2:14.7 | Are you mad at the people that are in a situation where Chris Moore's got to be your guy? |
| 2:18.7 | I texted somebody that knows stuff this. AP and DQ are about |
| 2:24.3 | to find out what it's like when the golden horseshoe doesn't break your way every time. Last |
| 2:28.3 | year everything broke their way. It's not now. The injury problems are very real. The injury |
| 2:32.7 | problems could impact Jayaden Daniels again, |
| 2:35.8 | who's already missed two games. And the receiver room... They have four active receivers today. |
| 2:41.5 | Do you feel confident that Terry and Debo are back next week? No. It'd be hard to. |
| 2:45.2 | I mean, who knows, but you can't be confident about it. Totally. And it speaks to the building of this |
| 2:49.8 | roster. Who would have |
| 2:50.9 | thunk that the oldest team in the NFL would have all these injuries? They built this, they talked all offseason about wanting to build this thing long term. And then you come out, you have the oldest roster in the league. You go out and get Javon Kinlaw, and that stops Johnny Newton from being on the field. That tells you what they think about Johnny Newton. They go sign Debo Samuel. |
| 3:08.7 | They don't get any more backup that tells you what they think about Luke McCaffrey's development. They went and got Laramie Tunsell, who's been fine, but that tells you what they thought about Brandon Coleman. Well, Brandon Coleman being inactive for a month. All of these young guys who, if you are really building this thing long term, need to see the field and find out whether they can play or not. |
| 3:26.2 | Dude, we were talking about it in the locker room on Thursday, standing around. |
| 3:29.9 | Just like something feels off. |
| 3:32.0 | Yeah. |
