0:00.0	Welcome back to the Minicaym Show, featuring Lenny.
0:08.2	Only NFL podcasts.
0:10.2	One of the hosts thinks fixing games means you're robbing them of their ability to have children.
0:14.4	That's Lenny.
0:15.0	Aminikimes.
0:16.4	It's very convoluted.
0:20.1	Here, joining me to preview week three of the NFL season, the host of NFL Daily, the great Greg Rosenthal.
0:28.6	Welcome back to the show.
0:29.6	Yeah, I'm not used to the opening joke being so dark, but very excited to be here.
0:34.8	I was going to go with the Stefan Diggs joke because big news, TMZ is reporting that him and
0:40.2	Cardi B are starting a family. But I've done, I've leaned on the Diggs brothers so often for
0:45.4	digging related jokes that I felt like it didn't have to go back to that well. We'll get to the Patriots.
0:53.0	We will not get to Cardi B, but once again, we will be discussing all the games in order. I don't know if you caught that.

1:29.3	This feels like zero juice.
1:31.3	No juice. I think it's a 12 and a half point line, which is crazy.
1:35.3	Don't like that.
1:36.3	Actually, weirdly, I feel like it was almost the peak of the Mike McDaniel era where those two games against the bills that they lost late in his first year, one in the
1:44.4	snow where I thought they played well, was back and forth late, and then in that playoff game.
1:48.6	And now you look, and it's just depressing there. And weirdly, the most depressing thing I think
1:53.9	about their team that it's been a little under the radar is their pass rush just hasn't been there
1:58.0	at all this year. That's my key. Sorry.
2:00.4	On my key. Yeah's my key. Sorry.
