Summary

Cousin Sal, Dave, and Martin recap Thursday Night Football between the Jaguars and the Bengals which turned out to be a great game. Mr. Thursday Night is back as Sal continues to nail his bets as he once again called who would score the first touchdown, Trevor Lawrence no interceptions, and Jaguars to cover. Dave faces a new reality that the Bengals will actually make the playoffs. Then it’s a preview of Tampa Bay/New England as the guys break down the big primetime game as Sal predicts the NBC director will have the toughest job of all. FanDuel has a bet of who will catch Tom’s record-breaking pass and Dave has an interesting idea for Bob Kraft to officially end the Brady/Belichick era. Next, the guys preview Steelers/Packers as Dave gives advice to Steelers fans. Plus, they preview the Rams/Cardinals, Cowboys/Panthers and predict the highest-scoring team of the week. Then former Indianapolis Colts’ defensive end, Dwight Freeney joins the show to talk about chasing Tom Brady, who has the edge between the Bucs and Pats, and why this is really a rebuilding year for New England. Plus, Dwight discusses how impressed he is with Michah Parsons so far, uniform numbers and why a mid-season Hard Knocks with the Colts is a horrible idea. Dwight gives his thoughts on how Carson Wentz can improve. Martin leaves mid-interview because of his small bladder and has to go to the bathroom. Finally, the guys pick their Week 4 underdog picks as Dave tries to take his Steelers love to a whole new decibel level. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
