| 0:00.0 | Hello, welcome to the MFTV NFL podcast. |
| 0:09.0 | I'm Connor here in New Jersey. |
| 0:11.2 | That's Albert Rear in Massachusetts. |
| 0:13.2 | And unlike Brandon Ayyuk, we decided to show up for work today, both of us at the same time. |
| 0:19.4 | And talk about a huge weekend of games. |
| 0:22.8 | I would argue that this was one of the biggest Sundays stacked on top of a couple of weeks prior to that, where we've had some major games. |
| 0:31.8 | And again, I mean, I don't want to sound like a broken record, but I hate the way that the NFL schedules, but it's working. |
| 0:39.9 | Because, like, you are knocking out contenders. |
| 0:43.7 | You are, like, you're putting your thumb on the scale. |
| 0:47.5 | And now you have all these teams that are, like, strangely relevant. |
| 0:51.1 | Like, at the end of the season, for example, and we'll get to the Panthers, but like Bucks Panthers is going to be one of the biggest games of the year. They play twice in the next three weeks. It's insane. Yeah. Yeah. And it must be something to it. And there were like in the early window.

| 1:18.0 | Like Bears, Browns, there was no messing around there. |

| 1:31.0 | for a little while, you know, like, so it kind of allowed you to, to hone in on, on a couple of the |
| 1:37.1 | closer games. And obviously, we're going to get to, you know, Bill's Patriots and then, you know, |
| 1:42.3 | what happened in the Chargers Chiefs game. |
| 2:01.9 | Yeah. I mean, I think that's where we start. So it's tough to combine these things. And so we'll kind of take them one by one, right? And, you know, there's no, this was a fun weekend. There was a lot to talk about, but there's no mistaking the fact that Patrick Mahomes Tours ACL and Micah Parsons Tours ACL, and those are going to have major ramifications |
| 2:08.0 | for the NFL and at least for Green Bay for the remainder of this season. We'll take Micah first |
