This is an I-Heart podcast. Guaranteed Human. Good morning football is a production of the NFL in partnership with IHeart Radio. Welcome inside our cornucopia of Thanksgiving celebration. Look, we're so festive now. You have like a whole set up in front of you, Seth Rawlins. Is this edible? No, it's not. Any of this work? No, it's not. What's this?

The gold pumpkin.

You should try to bite it. Jamie, Manti, Mike Garifolo, and Seth Brinkin-Rollins here. We have a great games this weekend. Yes, we do. Which means that we got to line them up, as you just said, and knock them down and throw down Thursday three topics football to address like two former Oklahoma

quarterbacks will be under said and knock them down and throw down Thursday. Three topics, football to address. Like two

former Oklahoma quarterbacks will be under center for their respective teams in week 12,

with both looking to maintain their division lead. The NFC South leading Tampa Bay Buccaneers

and Baker Mayfield take on the Rams here in L.A. right across the street. And Caleb Williams and the NFC North leading bears play host to the Steelers.

It just sounds so good to Seth.

Both spoke to the media yesterday, Baker on his return to SOFI and Caleb on the high stakes at hand.

There's no way for me to, you know, sugarcoat it.

It was pivotal in my career and my journey. I've told you guys that helped me find the football, or the fun in football again, that joy. And just getting to learn from those guys, something I'm forever grateful for, and it'll be fun to go back and see some familiar faces. I don't ever flip into this is a higher state game than the other. That's never my. It's, you know, you start, you start falling to that trap and, you know, you start looking at records or you start looking at, you know, where teams are, where other teams are, and where we're at, and you start comparing and doing all these different things. And so then you start getting distracted with, you know, where you want to go and where you want to be. you know, each and every game, you know, means the world for that week. That was a lot of words from myself to just set up the fact that these guys were good in college and now they get to play this weekend and we want to talk about them, shall we? Who are you taking if it comes down to a game-winning drive on Sunday because of what Caleb has done with the Bears this season.

He's taken on the Steelers or is it Baker Mayfield and all of his magic against the Rams,

Mantae. I love Baker Mayfield. Everybody knows that on this show, but I don't think you can dismiss how Caleb Williams has been playing late in game winning situations.

Not only Caleb Williams, but the Chicago Bears.

Now, the Chicago Bears right now are going to play the Steelers, and you've got the Bucks playing

the Rams.

So when I look at this as an entire equation, not only how Caleb Williams is playing, how

the Bears are playing as a cohesive unit, special teams and all of that, against a Steelers

team who defensively has a really good pass rush, which Caleb Williams has seen to neutralize on most teams.

I got to give the nod to Caleb Williams.

I have been liking how he's been running around looking like Houdini.

Like, I don't know.
