Every time I think I still have a parking ticket, it's back and I would say my dad used to get so pissed. Yeah. Oh, Christopher, Christopher. I mean, I could have got you a personal

chauffeur by now with all the tickets. You're making me pay here. Oh, baby. What's up? It's episode three 15. Chris Simpson button

presented by under armor. I'm here with my man Paulie B who's looking dapper as usual. What's up?

Big guy. How are you? I had a little thing on the drive in today. Right. Something happened. I'm like, I gotta bring this up with Chris. Oh, I like it.

November 17th up. Right. Christmas carols. Christmas carols. Yeah. Negative ghost rider. Exactly. Negative ghosts. I'm a huge. I'm a huge holiday.

Right. A theme kind of guy. Love it. Right. But I mean, not November 17th, right? Absolutely not. Post Thanksgiving. The day after. Go. Maybe even that night. Go time. But today, after the dinner, you're good. No. I changed it. Good. Yeah. Yeah. So wait, you were going to go do Christmas caroling? No, no, no. So I'm driving into words. Oh, yeah. Oh, you can't. I was trying to get my podcast to work. And for some reason wasn't working. So, okay, just go radio. Yeah. First station. Yeah. Christmas carols. Yeah. Okay.

It's it's before Thanksgiving. No. Can't do it. Change it. Yeah. Good for you. I was right. Good for you. That's the right move. You know, you got to draw a line in the sand, somewhere there. Yeah. No doubt about it. I mean, what? What is the rush with all this stuff? I don't know. I don't get that lately either. I mean, it's they're given. It's it's Halloween Halloween. They're trying to sell Halloween stuff. August 29th now. It's just like, what the fuck is going on? Did you do any of the grocery shopping at your house? Because all the grocery stores are like decked out. Right. I don't do any of it. Okay. I don't. You know, that's

the wife's department there. I'll send you pictures. Oh, yeah. Please send me pictures. Let me know. But I am seeing like some Christmas lights here and there. Yeah. Which I mean again, I'm not going to be mad at a little fest of this. But I'm also like, no, you shouldn't be able to turn on the Christmas lights till Thanksgiving dinner. It's a little aggressive mid November. I wanted to do that this year. I wanted to have Thanksgiving at my house. Are you not? And then we know we're going to my parents house. Okay. They redid their kitchens. So we're going to go there. Big fill cook. No, my wife cooks. And we buy the groceries.

But we're still going to go there and do that. I don't know why. I think you just take it across state lines. Yeah, we're going to take it across. I hope there's not an illegal there. Well, there might be some stuff illegal in my car. But either way. Yeah. So, so yeah, we're going there. But one of my things this year was I was kind of going like, let's do Thanksgiving. Yeah. And then after we eat, I want to bring everybody out. And let's turn on the Christmas lights. Like because I like to do that. Right. But it's not going to work out that way. So whatever. But I'll be there. Very Clark W. Griswold. Oh, I'm very

Clark W. I am. I'm known to be Clark W. Esk in my family. I am. Yes. I will. And that is something I will certainly be watching during the holidays. But that's right. No Christmas. Thank you. All right. Yes. Before Thanksgiving. Don't want to hear it. And that's like a what the fuck happened to Thanksgiving. Now this is the what the fuck happened podcast on a Wednesday. We're going to break it down here today. Good pivot. Thank you. Very good. Yeah. We've got some. I was I was kind of waiting for the underarm read. But it's later later. We're teasing you later. Yeah. Yeah.

I gave underarm read their love. They're good. Yeah. Yeah. I said we're presented by them. So yeah. There are there were a number of games. And what it's like we're in sync with what happens on Sunday. Teams present things that just have what the fuck happened Wednesday. We're all over. Right. On the positive and the negative side. Definitely. I don't think that I don't think there was a game where both Ron display more than Cleveland and New England this past weekend. Yes. Especially with the the Browns offense and the Patriots defense. Yeah. A lot of questions raised some positive some negative. I think that would be a good place to start. Yeah.

It's a great place to start. I mean, come on. At the weekend, we know it was crazy. It's the NFL. It's crazier than ever this year. Right. It is. It's crazier than ever. I think it's because the the extra game. Players and coaches a little bit mostly players have this attitude of like. I'm going to have a stretch where it's just not that good. And it's okay. I think there is something to that. I don't know. I like. Yeah. There's a little bit more wiggle room to relax or whatever. I don't know what it is. I really don't. Of course, the league is so equal. We know there is, you know, that aspect. But I don't

remember it being ever like quite this all over the place or getting to this point of the year and not going. Wait, we know the two or three best teams. Period. I mean, right now it's kind of like we have six or seven teams that we know are like. I think a little bit above the rest. But outside of Green Bay's first game. Right. And Arizona a little bit last week. All the other really good teams you'd put in there is. Okay, maybe Super Bowl. They've had a couple of three weeks where they just stand there. You're right. Shake their head and you just go, what what is there? What is there? You know,

Dallas would be another team that I would probably throw in that Green Bay mix there. They had to go. They had the bad game two weeks ago. A horrible game. But I'm going to give it a little bit of a asterisk because it was Dak Prescott two weeks not doing anything. Then just coming in cold as when. Yeah. So that's why I'll give that a little bit of a like a wiggle room there. Yeah. Right. But I know I think to your point. I mean, we saw Green Bay have a stinker, but there was no air in Rogers. So that's yeah. But but I'm with you. I've never been this far into the year where you just go. Man, there's not two teams that stand out or three teams that stand out.

There's six or seven that I look at are definitely Super Bowl caliber can win the Super Bowl. I like it. But it's not like consistent domination on a week to week basis. And that's where it's awesome that we're going to talk about this team because I mean in the AFC right now. There's no doubt the two best teams playing right now. The last few weeks are the New England Paters and the Tennessee Titans. And of course they're coached by similar people there. You know, they know how to go to a new game with the appropriate game plan for that week against whatever team they're playing. They manage.

Situational football to a tee. And what I mean by that is third downs red zone red zone defense, you know, special teams. When to call a trick play. You know, all of that is very special. Let alone. They're all into the basic fundamentals of like we're going to hit the right way. We're going to block the right way. We're not going to get a lot of stupid penalties. And that's is winning football. And to me. Hey, there's the one thing I'll say and with the Patriots. And this is why to me. You know, they're building a dynasty here.

Right now, they're building it. We're watching 2001 Patriots happen right in front of our eyes. Once again here. It's like the same fucking story. And where the greatness of why one team could be consistently great for 20 years, I think I've come to this realization that they didn't build a roster just to be like, we're going to get a bunch of fucking ass kickers and just be the greatest fucking thing you've ever seen. They billbell check went the route with salary cap from the agency.

Stuff's too equal. I'm going to build a team that has versatility. It's a matchup league. And you see in this year, I think it even says there's some teams. There you go. They're a good team, but it's not a good matchup against this team.

Who's lesser than them as a whole. Bellachack built a team the last 20 years. That's yeah, not maybe high end superstar talent, like the greatest show on turf or the 90s cowboys or the 80s 49ers.

He went, I'm going to build a team that can match up with any style of play. And then I'm a brilliant coach. And I'll figure out now that I have at least the right pieces to compete.

A few things that, you know, screw that team over schematically. And to me, that's where he's a genius. It's such a good formula for what they have offensively with Mac Jones. Right.

And I hate it when people say, well, it's, it's been easy for him because all it's around him. It's been easier for him than some of the other rookie quarterbacks. Yeah.
