the amount of engagement that we've seen across
the get Sunday covered club this year has been
Fantastic dude this this super excited to like
start incorporating some of this stuff into the
podcast I love talking about it. It gets me excited
like Every time that I log in every time that
I go to my league all that stuff. It just gets
me so hyped up cuz like Dude, this is what it's
all about. Engagement is there. Yes. It's so
exciting and The this is truly my favorite time
of the year Hockey is right around the corner
basketball is right around the corner Yeah, it's
football is here. So it is no longer the boring
season of just Baseball and golf and all the
summer sports that. You know, I I want to tell
our audience for everybody that is listening
and shout out to those of you that are. We had
every intention of getting an episode out before
this, but this time of year. And I had to explain
this to like my family, like my mom even. I was
like, listen, you don't understand like Labor
Day weekend, dude. Just check it off like. How
many drafts did you do over the weekend? Oh my
god, dude Over this weekend, it was probably
upwards of like six or seven. I had five this
weekend Yeah, I had five this weekend alone How
many leagues are you in total? I You know, that's
a that's a great question. I am in nine leagues
this year. I to be fair, I really only care about
I would say for The other five don't tell your
league mates that No money invested. Let me put
it that way. Okay. There you go money invested
in four or five or five something like that,
but yeah, there's two there's three big leagues
that I would say I'm in GSE I Would say our dynasty
and I would say my actually I'd say four the
elevator weight league I'm in. Now I'm carrying
a little more. And then also the champs league.
All right. All right. How many leagues are you
in? I'm a little embarrassed to say. I think
the final count more this year than last year.
See, that's my thing, dude. Every year, I'm just
like, I don't want to do too many. I don't want
to, like, overextend myself. But the more that
Get Sunday Cover progresses and all of these
leagues start popping up, I'm like, yes, of course
I want to be a part of that. Like, that's the
whole purpose of this. I found myself in 16 leagues.
Yeah, so I I do not have time for that. I I know
last year I was in about 12. I made sure this
year I left a couple leagues I cut down and I
made sure I was just not gonna be as busy because
I couldn't have time so busy as is with just
my day job. I can't but what I will say is and
we're gonna talk about this a little bit later
in the show, but I am super, super stoked with
some of the new leagues that I am in this year
because not only is the GSC dynasty league popping
off and stuff like that, but I also added like,
three brand new ones with people that we haven't
played before. And I'm super excited about it,
man. 16 is a lot. I will agree with you that
I've got a couple that are a little bit more
of a priority, if you will. That's yeah. But
it's great, man. It's this. This has been a very
long weekend. And like I said, guys, we wanted
to get an episode out. There's been a lot going
on We had some people come out for the GSE main
draft party, which was super fun, by the way
I'm not sure if you noticed a little bit of a
different background. The lighting is shit. I'm
sorry I'm coming to you live from Vegas now guys.
So if anybody's listening from Las Vegas Here
I am Drop a comment say you're in Vegas link
up Link up with Cody. Roll around, say what's
up. Might catch him at Raiders Broncos game.
At the Roomba. It's quite a possibility. The
Roomba, not the Death Star. I like that. That's
funny. I haven't heard that yet. That's funny.
It looks like a Roomba. Tell me I'm wrong. You're
not wrong. But it's sick, though. You should
see it in person. It's insane. I'm planning on
being out in Vegas sometime soon. Definitely
come take a visit down to you, brother. Prove
it. Oh, I will. Don't worry. Maybe I'll snag
Felicia to come with us, too. OK, all right.
But jumping in, GSC leagues this year that I
am in. I'm in the Mountain West. I'm in the new
Sleeper League of Chopped Started that I'm excited
to see how we do this. It's like a guillotine
league Man, I will say I have a load of confidence
in that one just based off of where I do not
Everything fell I have no clue how I got burrow
and chase. I I don't know what it was this year,
but it was so crazy Like, every single draft
I was in, except my final... Except my, like,
final two, I was either... I was in the... either
last or I was in... Yeah, you got shafted. Dude,
I was in the bottom of every single draft that
I was in. I was drafting eight, or I was really
drafting nine or ten in every league. And then
the last two drafts, I did... I somehow randomized
and got the 101 and I just don't know how. I
was really stressing with the Chopped League
having the 101 because it's a 17 team league.
I did not have any hope in it, dude. Yeah. I
think I think you're going to turn all right
there. I'm hoping I'm hoping. But in addition
to that Chopped League, Champions League, and
then obviously GSC Main. And then the last one
is Dynasty. Shout out to our Dynasty boys, Leafbug,
Jimmy, and KovalSkanator. Shout out to you boys
active in the chat. I know you guys watch the
podcast. Shout out to you. Thank you gentlemen.
Thank you for tuning in. We appreciate it and
we appreciate you guys being a part of the dynasty
and a part of the club. I just I just want to
say this real fast. Of all of the leagues that
have been generated so far as we started get
Sunday covered fantasy football club dynasty
is popping off, dude. Like the engagement in
this, the people that are talking like. It's
so great and and we appreciate you guys because
it that's that's in my opinion what makes it
more fun like I will join any league you want
me to join if the people that are in it like
get me excited to play and that's exactly what
happened in the dynasty league just literally
last week right like we have this whole conversation
in dynasty about you know some some setting changes
and some scoring changes and maybe there's some
money involved like that type of engagement and
that type of excitement about just When I play
fantasy football with you guys I feel like I'm
hanging out with you and at some point I would
really like to meet you guys honestly like that
that was the whole idea behind this club and
I just love to see it so seriously like thank
you guys so much like this it's already a lot
of fun my team is But cheeks that's what mine
is but cheeks. Yeah, that's a good way to put
it Yeah, we'll go with that. But honestly, it's
great and and I'm stoked about it. Like it's
I Love following the chat. Like you guys are
you guys are into it? That's what we're here
for man I guess I'll just talk about some of
mine. Well, let's get let's give Jordan a little
attention here, right? Jordan's missing. He will
be back It's this was a little impromptu thing
that we were doing tonight because we wanted
to get an episode in before the season started.
But Jordan had some things to share about the
Get Sunday Covered Colorado for three years in
a row. Now we have not lost any members. Which
shout out Jordan great job for that keeping the
engagement up. We just did that draft a couple
nights ago I do want to add this in there and
maybe Jordan can shine some light on this In
a further date, but next this league in my opinion
Has had some of the funniest team names that
I have seen I can't share a lot of them But uh
If you guys have any like really creative or
really funny team names, I would love to hear
them in the comments because this league went
really hard with their team names. And I felt
like I went pretty hard in our main league this
year on that. Yeah, it got really funny, really
fast. And I think that's like when you when you
get 10 people that are together for three years
in a row. That's that's when you start establishing
that that trust and that that understanding of
that camaraderie. Yeah, absolutely But I just
gotta say Jordan does not have the best of luck
in his own league and I'm telling him right now
It's mine this year, man. They let me get the
Chase burrow stack. So that's what I got. Yeah,
I got that and to be fair I managed to somehow
get that in both leagues where I got the 101.
Yeah you guys are screwed um but for me yeah
the the the main draft was super fun wish you
were there uh had a couple guys come out to vegas
and yes we went full vegas uh i won't even sugarcoat
it it was a great time but uh we had everybody
together on the zoom draft so that one went really
well um but I wanted to touch on some of the
new leagues that have been generated so far.
One of them being one that I did a pool party
draft for last night. The time change screwed
me up a little bit. I had to push it back. It
was about 15 minutes before the draft and I got
the alert from Sleeper and I was like... Oh yeah,
I'm not on mountain time anymore. Like, hey guys,
like I'm not going to make it. Like I, I do have
a real job. Like I don't get paid for this one.
Um, but it was super fun. Uh, had everybody in,
um, I think maybe a couple of auto drafted picks,
but it was super nice. People from Utah, um,
California, Vegas, obviously, and then Oregon.
So a little bit of a West coast vibe for this
league. And then also, I really wanted to shout
out the one that we just started this year. We've
got some kids, man. We've got the new generation
coming in. Couple of friends of mine. Shout out
the twins, Aidan and Landon. Love you guys very
much. Also, Connor and Carson from Florida. Guys,
super, super stoked that you're ready for fantasy
football. They were so excited. They were so
stoked. They were invested into the chat during
the draft. It was super fun. Like mom and dad
were there. You know, some friends of the family
were there and we've got this brand new league.
It's literally called for the kids and I'm so
excited. That's awesome. We'll have to get Theo
in it next year for sure. 100 % dude. Guys, I
talked to Theo before we started recording tonight
and he is ready. Dude, he was going to be game
picks. Don't you worry. We'll touch that on that
here in a little bit. Don't worry. We got you
guys covered this year. That boy is going to
be a problem in fantasy football. I'm telling
you. He's going to be a champ. You're looking
at a GSE champ when you see Theo. He is a stud.
Unlike his father. Don't give me that. Come on,
man. Come on, man. Is this your year? Are you
on Revenge Tour 2 .0 or is this 3 .0? To be fair,
I'm not the most confident with my league with
my team in GSC. Hey, man. Hey, man. It's a long
season. It's going to. Yeah, exactly. Anything
can happen. Exactly. And the difficult part isn't
going to be Ryan. I'm going to say it now. Ryan
is going to be a problem. Yeah. Well, We can
get into that a little farther. That'll be for
another episode. That'll be another episode.
I told you guys last year that you were making
mistakes. Yeah, valid. But nonetheless, let's
continue on. Cody, move it along. We can continue
through. Just give us some of your off season
takeaways, strong teams, weak teams that you're
looking at. going into into uh the 25 26 year
yeah um dude i think i think it's a lot for for
for all of us that you know follow football and
fantasy football religiously like we consume
a lot of information and it just kind of starts
to become mush in my opinion But I will give
you some teams that I have my eye on. I'll start
with, obviously, I'm a homer. Broncos, man. I'm
excited for the Broncos. I'm gonna be honest.
I think they win the division this year. I'm
saying it. I'm saying it. I'm making my choice
now. AFC West, Broncos. I think the AFC West.
in my opinion, has been one of the most consistently
competitive leagues. I understand Kansas City
has won it for the last 1500 years, right? I
get that. I understand that. But playing into
the division, they're always like close games,
right? Like Broncos almost beat them in the first
quarter of the season last year. It was a fluke
blocked field goal. What I'm saying is... Yes,
I'm excited for the Broncos, man. The defense
is going to be nasty. I do believe in Bo Nix.
I think, you know, they've done a lot of work
to build around him to allow him to grow. I think
that's what a lot of these organizations do incorrectly
is they draft this stud that's supposed to be
the game changer of their franchise and that
they don't do shit to help him. I think the Broncos
are working on that. So we've got the solid base
of the defense. I'm with you, dude. I wouldn't
be surprised if they won the division. I'm looking
out for them to make a strong playoff push. Do
I think they're going to make it to the Super
Bowl? I don't want to be the one that says no,
but it's no. Yeah, I don't think they make The
super bowl, but I definitely think they they
can win the afc west um Yeah, I mean at at at
at least out of that division, um for me That's
that's definitely, you know, it's it's chief
broncos chargers. Really. I mean the raiders
It i'm curious to see what they do with gino
smith, man That's gonna be a good division to
keep an eye on that's what i'm saying like Any
of those games? In my opinion, it's closer to
50 -50 than you think. 100%. But I'll move on.
I'll stay in the AFC. I'll go Ravens. They're
primed. Hard to go against the reigning MVP in
Lamar. Correction? Okay. Well, wasn't he regular
season MVP? Maybe. He wasn't NFL MVP. Correct.
That was Saquon. Deserved. But I, it was either
him. It, Lamar is reigning regular season MVP.
Okay. All that said, both sides of the ball for
me with the Ravens. Nasty. At some point, at
some... What scares me about the Ravens is I'm
nervous that he's going to start taking the path
of Josh Allen, right? Every single year we talk
about Josh Allen and the Bills and how they should
be up there and then they should have beat the
Chiefs and they should have made a Super Bowl
run. And how many years in a row now has that
happened? The last like three? Maybe four? I
think it's four at least. Is that going to keep
happening for the Ravens? Look at all, look at
all this stuff they put around. Great defense
added Derek Henry. They're primed for it. Yeah.
I mean, a hundred percent. Well, it'll be interesting
to see what happens there. I mean, touching off
of what you said, obviously we've mentioned both
of these teams now. How many times are we going
to say Kansas City and Buffalo? I know. I mean,
I always look forward to that game or that, you
know, rivalry. But like, honestly, like the only
one who's done it is Kansas City. The only one
that can do it is Burrow. Burrow's at least done
it. Not with that defense. Oh, yeah, no. No chance.
No chance. burrow is going to have to put up
40 plus points a game to give them a chance to
win to give them a chance i you know obviously
like like i said before like we all consume a
lot of information but that's what they're gonna
have to do to stay relevant and especially in
that division though I mean, AFC North is always
strong. And you think about the Bengals, Chiefs
went 12 -0 or 11 -0 in one score games last year.
The Bengals might have to do that shit this year.
Well, the Bengals, they lost a handful of games
by one score. That's what I'm saying. They better
hope their luck turns around this year. Well,
I better hope their luck turns around this year
cuz I've got a lot of shares of Bengals players.
I feel Now let's go to the flip side weak teams
who you got I Think this is like I Mean it's
pretty easy right like the Browns are always
there start your door Should or chance just start
him now just start him now you start him now
For fantasy sake, no. You got to start Joe Flacco
and then go 0 and 6. Yeah, but I mean, and then
you're saying shitter. They're going to start
Dylan Gabriel and Dylan Gabriel's tiny as shit.
He's just going to get absolutely smoked. What
is it with the Browns? Like. I am. Don't I have
no stake included. I don't care. I don't hate
the Browns. I don't love the Browns I just have
nothing invested into it. I ask you guys that
are listening as a Browns fan like All that it
all that the only stake I would want in the brownie
Jerry Judy and that's about it What like what
do you do? How can you be so bad for so long?
Like you think about some of these teams you
get rid of your players that are actually decent
that's what you do look at Baker now That's what
I'm saying that's what I'm saying like think
about some of these other teams that are quote
-unquote Trash right like everybody's got high
hopes for Jacksonville because Travis Hunter
Brian Thomas jr. Like maybe Trevor Lawrence can
pretend to be a quarterback for a few games But
for the last four or five years, Trevor Lawrence
has been dog shit. But if you think prior to
that, they were playing Tom Brady for a playoff
spot. That was a playoff game. You know what
I mean? Jacksonville? Playing in the AFC Championship.
Think about the Giants. Giants have a couple
of Super Bowl wins. I just like it's it's so
crazy to see the fluctuation in all of these
teams. I won't say all of them because some of
them seem to remain relevant. Kansas City. New
England for the longest time. Denver Denver has
been shipped since 2015. Yeah, but they felt
last year. I mean. They're in competitive games.
It's not like. Their defense ever went away I
will say that about denver. It's not like your
guy's defense went away All right, so pretty
consistent you guys had von miller you guys have
What about the titans dude Like titans fans I
don't know how you are you buying that onto the
lions fans because y 'all did it for you know,
30 30 years or You know, 30 plus years. I got
high hopes for Detroit this year, by the way.
I really do. More than last year. Yeah. I'm.
I would love to spend 60 seconds talking about
that. I am terrified that they lost Ben Johnson.
You know, I I don't know. I mean. Ben Johnson
leaving, but. I think they'll be OK. I really
do. I'm scared. We'll find out. All right. What
else from the offseason? We had a lot of. Contracts
get signed a couple of interesting trades, in
my opinion, Michael Parsons. Well, not fancy
though, but yeah. Dallas, yo. Get your shit together,
Jerry. Oh, Jerry. Honestly. Jerry, you probably
should just step away from football. Let's start
with Washington. I've got two big names here.
Terry McLaurin. with the long dry out to get
his contract signed and then they get rid of
their RB2 or maybe arguably their RB1. That's
what's interesting to me because prior to this
trade, Brian Robinson probably would have been
a fifth round pick. Sixth round pick. I don't
know. I don't have it in front of me, but. So,
yeah, I think his ADP was signing right around
the 50s. And then they low key trade their running
back one. Did you know that Washington is the
oldest team in the league? Despite Jaden Daniels,
they are the oldest team in the league. Really?
Yeah. I could see it actually looking at it now.
I'm a little nervous. Just just based off of
how well they played last year with with the
playoff push and how impressive their offense
was. I'm a little nervous that that's. They're
going to have a setback this year. I really I
really don't think they're. I think last year
is kind of a one off. I don't think they're going
to have that kind of year this year. Yeah. Yeah,
what do you think about Brian Robinson going
to the Niners I I mean they better have a hell
of a lot of confidence in Eckler and Bill because
I think that that is I mean III don't understand
it, but I think To be to be fair, I think the
most gangster shit would be if Ricky Pearsall
and Bryant Robinson Jr. walked out in San Fran
to many men. That'd be some baller shit. That'd
be some gangster shit if they did that. Yeah,
you know, you know. That's wild. I didn't even
think about that. That's wild. But like, so like,
does that move? Make you concerned about Christian
McCaffrey. Yes, that that makes me. You were
already concerned about Christian McCaffrey,
AKA. Yeah, I mean, I feel like after last season,
there's a reason his ADP was in the second round.
Yeah. Because I think. The reason they brought
in. Him brought in Robinson jr. Was because of
the fact that At the end of the day I think it's
gonna they're gonna do a split backfield or something
because They want a healthy CMC at the time of
the year where it matters, which is January February.
Yeah, I Think you nailed that That's that's kind
of how I feel about it, too. I personally don't
have any shares of CMC this year, but when that
happened, I was like, ah, that's that's kind
of a big name to be coming in as the number two.
This feels very much like a timeshare to me.
Yep. I mean, you're bringing him in. I'm assuming
you're going to be doing a timeshare. There's
there's just no way you're putting. Robinson
Jr. on the bench to play fiddle. Yeah. Yeah.
All right. OK, it is that time of the year. We
are just about to get to kickoff. I hope you
guys are listening prior to kickoff. If you're
not, we're going to kick off our Super Bowl picks
for this year. We do this every year. I want
to switch it up. before we jump into Super Bowl
picks. Fuck with me. Let's go. I want. Division
winners. Oh, get me off the cuff here. I want
division winners. So NFC West, we'll go one by
one, we'll each say and then we'll knock it out.
We'll go NFC West, AFC West. You know, Jordan's
going to be pretty upset that he doesn't get
to play this game. Well. We'll ask Jordan next
week. It's all good. We'll get Jordan's picks
next week. Don't worry, folks. We'll get it on
camera. All right. You hit me. I'll answer. You
answer. Yep. All right. We'll go. We'll go both.
So we'll do NFC first. AFC. So let's start in
the West. NFC West. AFC West. Give me both. NFC
West for me. Give me the Seahawks, dude. Really?
Sam Darnold? Listen, Darnold balled out last
year. He did. I just don't... The JSN now? I
am terrified of the three other teams in this
division. Yeah. The Niners dismantled their defense.
They've got their... This team is so cursed by
injuries. It's insane The Rams Sam Darnold has
a back made of spaghetti apparently Stafford
you mean What did I say Darnold? Did I say that?
Yeah, that's embarrassing. Yes Stafford His backs
fucked up Think the offense is gonna be fine.
I'm just terrified of how long they can sustain
that Mm -hmm, and then the Cardinals are another
one of those Just inherently bad teams for the
last ten years Okay, I get I Say bad sparingly,
but right. I'll take Seahawks dude. Give me a
box AFC AFC West. Yep. No, you're supposed to
answer NFC West next. I want to know what you.
OK. NFC West, I'm I'm going to go with the 49ers.
I think. Somehow they're going to find a way.
I it's hard to go against them with, you know,
just. They've ran that division for so long.
OK. I just don't think anyone made any significant
moves in my eyes to take it from them. All right.
AFC now. AFC West. You don't want to save the
best division of football. I think we're safe.
I know we've already touched on it. I've already
touched on this. I'll go Broncos. I'm taking
the Broncos to win the AFC West. Let's go. We're
hurting here first. Taylor Swift, sorry, but
I hope you're ready to play the Super Bowl without
Travis playing in the Super Bowl. I'm going to
take Denver also, man, not just because I'm a
homer, I just think. You know, Raiders are ramping
up, I think they're going to have. Give them
a year or two, something in a couple of years.
Same with the Chargers. I just look, they're
cooking in Denver right now on both sides of
the ball. And. Yeah, give me Denver. Why you
want to go next? I'll let you take charge. All
right, let's go AFC East. Bills. I mean, I'm
a Patriots fan, but. The East runs through the
Bills right now, just like it was before running
through New England, Buffalo, hard to go against
Josh Allen. Dude's a dude's a beast. Now, I will
say. I'll touch on New England real quick. I
do think New England this year, I think they
make the playoffs. Yep. I'm 100 % with you. That's
exactly what I was just going to say. Bills for
sure. But watch out, man, because New England's
made some silent moves. And while we're on the
AFC East, let's touch on these rivalry jerseys.
Can I just say Some of them are Nasty and some
of them are just plain trash I'm a huge fan of
New England's Buffalo's dude the whiteout. Oh
Dude, the whiteout is fire fire I'm honestly
I like Arizona's I Also like Seattle's I thought
Seattle's were pretty fire with the 12 in the
in the numbers. I thought that was a tribute.
That's nice. You know, I mean, college teams
have the 12. In their stadium and their thing,
it's like everybody has the 12. Fuck off with
that. Come on. Yeah, it's the 12. You only that
only got famous because you have the loudest
stadium in the league. Yep. Fair enough, but
yes dude gotta start buying some new jerseys.
Thanks for the reminder You can text me we might
be able to coordinate something with that burrow
I've been trying to get that burrow Jersey off
you bro You sent me a New England rivalry Jersey.
I'll I'll send this one to you. How about that?
That's a fair trade I Figured that's a fair trade.
I win the league again. You give me the burrow
Jersey Yeah, exactly. I'm already giving you
$60. All right. Well, uh, we did AFC. Let's do
NFC now. All right, but he got NFC East Philly
without question. Defending champs. Yeah. Take
one. Jalen. Yeah. Honestly, I could see you.
Yeah, we'll we'll talk about it, but I could
see Philly going back again this year. Yep. I
agree. I could easily see back to back too. Yeah,
I am interested to see the week one. It's week
one, right? Dallas versus Philly. Yeah, tonight.
That's tonight, bro. That's right. That's that's
kickoff. All right, baby. All right. All right.
Let's Dallas gonna have a good offense. They're
still gonna go like. Ten and seven. No. Maybe
now. I don't know. They got time. I'm curious.
Yeah, I'm thinking more nine and eight. Yeah.
All right. Well. I'll keep I'll keep it entertaining
for the last one, so I'll go. Let's do AFC South.
AFC South. Let me look. Let's see here. Houston.
That's where I want to say. What if the Jags
are what if the Jags get hot? Dude, I that's
I'm I was kind of on the cusp there, but. Think
I'm going to stick with Houston. I don't know
if I can. And I'll tell you why. I love CJ Stroud.
I love Nico. That offensive line is absolute
dog shit. You may throw on the ball quick. Lots
of slants. I just wonder if with the hype around
Travis Hunter, not that I'm saying like he's,
you know, the greatest rookie that's ever been.
Whatever. He's great. Like he's fantastic, but
like. I'm got it like give me the checks, OK?
Yeah, I'm. I was touching on this earlier with
individually with you and I was like this is
why I did not want to share of Travis Hunter
because I knew it would be a problem if you pick
them up, you would have had a I felt like you
would have had to address this pre draft. Because
a lot of people are gonna be pissed now that
they have to go in and update the settings within
sleeper for Travis hunter to get points on defense
And I personally I took no shares. I had plenty
of opportunities to pick him up but in my eyes
what I saw was dude's not gonna be playing a
hundred percent on both sides and I just I feel
like he's going to be very limited on a snap
count for one. And I felt like it was just a
wasted pick to pick someone up like him. I don't
get me wrong. I hope he makes me in my words
100 percent. But I just I did not see the the
value behind someone that's going to maybe play
40 to 50 percent snaps well on each side of the
ball. Yeah. Obviously, you know, I hope he comes
out and goes crazy, but I didn't get any shares
of him either because play both sides. You have
twice the entry risk. I don't know. I think he'll
be great, but not for my draft. Okay. NFC. I'll
start here. I'm going Tampa Bay Baker. Baller.
Yeah. Tampa runs it right now. Pennix has a lot
to prove in Atlanta. And let's be honest, Carolina
is nothing. Carolina and New Orleans. No chance.
It's Tampa again. Yep. That's easy. All right.
Saving the North. Let's head on up. Let's start
with the AFC North. We'll save the NFC for last.
OK, I was like, you know, I don't want to do
this one. All right. I feel like this one's.
I think it's going to be a lot closer than. People,
you know, view it on paper, obviously. I mean,
realistically, you're not picking the Browns.
It's between and you're probably not picking
Cincinnati. Just based off of their defense.
Have more confidence in either Pittsburgh or
Baltimore. All right, but I'm gonna go on a limb.
I'm gonna take Pittsburgh in this to be fair.
Jesus Jesus, I'm a ride with Jordan. I'm gonna
take Titsburg. I Am NOT gonna do that. I will
take the Ravens for this We're gonna talk about
this when we get to our Super Bowl picks because
I think the Ravens are going but I would not
have taken Pittsburgh there. Um I do think Pittsburgh
wins probably eight or nine games. Ten. Ten.
I don't know if I'll give him ten. I don't know
if I can give him ten. I'll give him eight or
nine. I can't go ten. Uh I I think Ravens run
it. They have a battle with Cincy. See, I don't
think since he man I I don't give you wrong burrow
chase at Higgins like that offense fires on all
cylinders the defense is a problem I Just I don't
think they got it. I Can't go Pittsburgh, dude,
I can't Well Jordan will be happy with my pick
our resident Pittsburgh fan Rouchers too old
dude. He's too old. I think he's got a point
to prove Yeah, he's had a point to prove since
he left Green Bay, okay, how was that gone? He's
actually got a full season under his belt now
after Game one with the Jets. We all know how
that went I'm telling you I'm taking Pittsburgh.
All right. Let's go last division This one is
a absolute coin toss. I'm going to let you take
lead with the NFC North here. Gosh, dude. God,
where do you where do you even begin with this
division? Like, obviously, Lohing and fruits
got to be Detroit. Great season last year. I
don't love that they lost the OC. I don't know
how to answer this question, Brandon. I really
don't. Dan Campbell came in. They've done the
damn thing. I think I'm riding with Detroit again.
Give me Minnesota, dude. Shout out once again,
Gunner and Carson down in Florida. I know you
boys are Vikings fans. Go Vikings. Skull. Give
me the Vikings, dude. All right, that'll do it
for division champs. Now. Give me your Super
Bowl pick with your Super Bowl champ. Oh, Super
Bowl pick and champ. I didn't know we were going
champ, too. I am taking the Ravens. OK, I'm going
Ravens and Eagles. Oh, so you're going double
birds. Yeah, double birds. it's uh it's gonna
be lamar i i think he gets league mvp i think
he gets super bowl mvp yeah i i also don't know
what the fuck i'm talking about so i'm in i'm
very much in a toss -up because i know what i've
written down here and i know after i obviously
wrote this down like over a week ago and as i've
analyzed throughout the rest of that time and
done kind of my own research, especially drafting
and everything like that this last weekend. I'm
going to stick with my AFC. I'm going to go Bills.
But I do think the Eagles make the Super Bowl.
And I do believe. Jalen and Saquon. Go back to
back. Really? I do. I don't hate it. I don't
hate it. We'll let Jordan do his thing next week
while we have them on. I mean, we can just throw
it out there. What Jordan has written down for
now, he can back this up next week when he's
on. What Jordan has written down is Chiefs versus
Bucks. Which is wild, in my opinion. That's pretty
crazy. But we'll let him back that up when he's
here. We'll see. But alright well I Want to touch
on I know we at the top of the podcast we talked
about some new season segments So I want to just
let everyone know we got some cool new segments
this year. We're gonna be introducing one of
the cool ones that we have came up with over
the offseason is actually it's going to be our
double a. Segment, and it's going to be a analysis,
an analyst, so breakdown. It's double. That's
why I'm calling it a segment analysis analysis
analysis analysis analysis, whatever, analyst
analysis, whatever you want to call it. Man,
it sounds like we have a disease analyst anal.
OK. Basically what that is is each one of us
hosts we are going to Basically Break down these
analysts that Have these other podcasts these
other shows, whatever it may be watch their stardom
sit -ups and really Dive in to see if they were
on or if they are off and judging off that We're
going to kind of give them a weekly score of,
you know, an A, a B, a C, and a D, and an E,
F, and really throughout the season see how good
these guys are actually as analysts. Yeah. Yeah,
it's guys. Listen, we get it. If you're listening
to us, I would assume that you're probably pretty
invested into fantasy football. And everybody
listens to the same podcast at this point. uh
you know everybody watches the same accounts
on instagram and youtube you know whatever like
we understand that what we're what we want to
do is incorporate our experience with our teams
in the analysis see how hard that is dude that's
hard it's it's tough dude it's it's we want to
incorporate the double a segment that's why i'm
calling it the double a let's call it double
a's double a segment that's all it is Basically,
we understand if you're listening to us, you're
doing fantasy research on your own. We're not
here to tell you who to start and sit and how
many, what's the A dot of this person? I don't
have the time to do that research. What we do
want to do is just kind of like, okay. I'm listening
to this podcast this week. I'm following this
account this week. What's our experience with
that, right? And we might switch it up week to
week, too. Yeah, absolutely. We might go find
some of the most random podcasts out there. Absolutely.
Obviously, we're going to start off with the
hot top ones, give you guys an actual idea, and
we might probably do a two -week roll. with each
of them and then find more and broaden our own
podcast, you know, findings with fantasy podcast.
And, you know, that'll help give you guys insight
to these other people as well. And, you know,
we hope that we can get some some of their crowd
to come join our channel and, you know, subscribe.
Maybe that's our calling, Brandon. That's what
we have to do is instead of watching football
and playing fantasy football, we'll play fantasy
analyst and we bet on the analyst that gets it
most correct. That could get spicy. That could
get spicy, dude. But yeah, it's going to be super
fun. We're going to talk about a bunch of different
shows. You know, obviously the big names that
are out there, you know, we'll get to them in
a future date. But yeah. We're spending our time
listening to this. Hopefully you spend our time
listening to us Yeah, absolutely. I mean, so
I'll just I'll kick it off I'm gonna go with
probably the hottest one out there, which is
gonna be the footballers fantasy footballers
I'm gonna kick off mine there and Then I already
I think I found already my second one that I'm
gonna do in a couple weeks Okay For me, it's
gonna be fantasy football today. That's who I'm
gonna be listening to the most the CBS fantasy
football today cast Adam Dave Jamie and Heath
Love them. Absolutely listen to him all the time.
Same with the footballers listen to him all the
time We're just gonna try to do what we can to
See how accurate they are. You want me to be
a hundred percent honest with you this year last
year? I had a percent honest with me Dude, last
year I did such an in -depth thing where I was
watching all these podcasts every single day.
I had the time for it. I started a new job, guys,
back in May. I'm probably about 100 times more
busier than I was. I don't have time to really
sit around and listen to podcasts all being able
to watch all these different people. Excuses
don't make champions Okay, shout out Jordan mr.
Champion that makes every excuse in the book
you can't make excuses if I have no excuse to
make yeah, that's what they all say no, but Essentially,
I did not watch anything leading up to the draft.
I saved everything Post -draft and now I'm starting
to get back into it I started the other day.
Not me. I just wanted to I was like, I just need
I'm gonna try and switch it up this year. See
what happens. I would honestly be curious to
see my Spotify wrapped for my podcasts and see
how many hours I spent listening to some of these
guys. But I love it, though. And that and we
hope you guys love it, too. Don't know. It's
just fun for me, man. It's super exciting. Like
I would much rather listen to dudes talk about
how many catches this guy got and and how many
yards this guy ran for then all all of the Negative
crap that's going on in the world right now.
I would much rather do that and we hope that
you do too and Honestly Brandon, it's just good
