 It's an interesting debate in our control room and in our 5 a.m. meeting here on Up and Atoms. And welcome to the show, and happy Monday. We have to start with Sunday Night Football, right? We have to, that's the game everybody wants to talk about. Ooh, this is one of those mornings you wake up and you're like, oh, we really wanna talk about the 11 to 10 Broncos win. The sloppiest game that I've seen in a long time. Jimmy G, who I defend relentlessly throughout my NFL career and here on the show, he was awful. We saw a bad offense and good defense. I don't wanna start my show like this. I don't wanna start my show lambasting the play by the Niners and the play calling by Kyle Shanahan. Jimmy, Jimmy, Jimmy, Jimmy made some terrible mistakes. Broncos defense deserves some credit, but Jimmy, Jimmy never should have thrown that ball midfield, first down, a little bit of pressure, forces it into triple coverage. I can't, I can't defend him, throw the ball away. Jimmy, the Broncos were sloppy. It was not cute, but I will say this, they're buying themselves some time. They are learning and accepting and growing as they win ugly. I appreciate a team that can win ugly. I mean, nine three and now sets up about as ugly as you can get now. I think Russell is going to figure it out. There's just so much talent on this team. There was less hack it drama. They brought in that guy. It all seems to be working. And so I'm less worried about the Broncos, tougher division, of course, tough sledding, but so much talent on that team. The Jimmy side of things. I mean, woof is all I can say. And speaking of woof, we'll play some panic and patience on some of the losing teams in a bit. Raiders fans, oh, and three, the numbers are not cute. We looked them up this morning, of course. So we'll get into all of that. We'd love to hear from you, of course, the show Twitter handle at up and Adams show week three, all about close games, like I said, 10 to 14, we're by one score, which is wild. My takeaways are as follows. Number one, I think the AFC South is a bit spicier than we think, everybody. The AFC South with three and one on Sunday, taking care of the AFC West, the one that we call and crown the most exciting divisional league. Colts take care of the Chiefs, Jags over Chargers, Titans with Raiders, and the Texans fall to the Bears. Hey, go Bears, by the way. But I want to give some love to the Jags team to start the show. How about that? Only here. Well, that happened. They sit atop the AFC South. They're two in one. They snapped an 18 game road losing streak, with his 38 to 10 win over the Chargers. I gotta tell you, they're a hell of a fun watch. This team scored 38 points yesterday. Trevor Lawrence stringing together for the first time I've ever seen, back-to-back wins. He was looking sharp. He had two good games in a row. The offense is so fun. James Robinson, great Travis Etienne. He's getting involved. They put him in at Wildcatties out there being quarterback. So, so fun. Keep it up. Zade Jones, Christian Kirk. They were scoring touchdowns. They combined for 157 yards and two touchdowns yesterday. And the defense is good. I see you. Now we will talk to Lear Overton, who I became best friends with over the weekend about the Colts. But I said it. I hung out with these guys. All the Colts players, as you guys all saw, I got pie in the face. They had a nice fundraiser, kicking the stigma. And I flew out to Indianapolis and I'm playing pop-a-shot with these guys. And it's Matt Ryan and it's Yannick Ngakwe and it's Grover and it's, you know, Julian Blackman and all these players. And I'm just saying, you guys are gonna be okay. It's Shaquille Leonard. Me saying, I think you might win. I don't know if Kansas City's prepared for this. If they had a long time to prepare for it, I think they might be counting you out. I'm talking to DeForest Buckner an emotional game for him, of course. And they pulled it off. They upset KC 2017. They're now one and one and one. And Matt Ryan did exactly what I would tell him to do. What I would do if I was a quarterback myself, I would do the same mind-numbing eight-minute drive that he strung together. 16 plays, 76 yards in the fourth quarter. Keep the ball out of my home's hands. Always a great idea. So the Colts held the Chiefs to 315 total yards. That very, really, very rarely happens. And Matt Ryan looked good. And so I'm happy that they got their thing done too. Titans pick up a win too. Gotta love that. Their first win of the season over the Raiders. Derek Henry, I think looked the best that he has. He's still averaging a career low 3.6 yards per carry of the season. I'd like that to improve. But I see you, the AFC West. Listen, the South is coming for you. Three and O against the West this week. Eagles and Dolphins deserve some love to start the show. I couldn't be happier about this. I stood up here and I said, Eagles are going to go and win the division and make it really deep into the playoffs. And then A.J. Brown's going to be this huge addition. And then I said sort of the same thing about the Dolphins. They're going to shut everyone up. And Tua is going to do that. And now low and behold, both three and O. The only two undefeated teams in the thing. And the Eagles have held a lead of at least 17 points in all three games this season. That is dominant. So if that can continue, and if they can set quarterbacks like they did yesterday, the Carson wins nine times, Ferris Bueller style, nine times, they're going to go places. And then there's the Dolphins. My goodness, a win over the Bills. That's about as impressive as you can get. And to me, it's that they're winning in different ways, right? That's what we have to pay attention to. I like teams that are able to do that. I like teams that can win ugly. And I like teams where last week it was the offense and it was Tua going through the air and putting up six touchdowns yesterday. It was all about the defense. It is this whole team coming together to do their thing. My last takeaway for now, what a buzz kill. Let's get Conrad in here. Aaron Rodgers versus Brady. This is just not what you expect Conrad to see. Packers and Buccaneers combined for just 26 points in yesterday's meeting. I what, you know, they had more turnovers in yesterday's game than touchdowns four to three. Oh, I know it. I know it. Again, first time in a long time, drafted Tom Brady this year. I know no one cares about that, but I watched that game very intently. And I have never seen Tom Brady struggle like how he struggled yesterday. It was very hard to watch. Every time it seemed like they got a drive going, they fumbled. And it was, it was a very sloppy game. This was the worst game I've seen between two surefire Hall of Famers and my entire life watching football. Well, Aaron's not clicking with his receivers. I tried to blame the heat about it. Everyone's like, you were wrong. I mean, was it, was it that Rodgers was great and defeated the heater that Brady just, you know, come on, played a little worse. Like that was the situation in my head. No points in the second half for Aaron Rodgers. That's weird. On the Brady side, that two minute drive, the late, all of it was weird. No one was open the whole game. That's what I kept seeing. Luckily, Bucks will have Mike Evans back, which we'd be super excited to see, of course. So I'm not panicking on them and you are or you wouldn't? I would, I would panic on Tampa Bay. I mean, listen, I know they don't have God. When I know they don't have Mike Evans, he's coming back from suspension. But when you saw this offense play, like he was using Cameron Brate yesterday, like he was using Gronk 10 years ago. Yeah. I mean, Cameron Brate, I, that's a name that I, that hasn't been relevant in my opinion in the last couple of seasons. He hasn't been used as much. They've had other tight ends there. And it's, he was like the only guy that could get open. I mean, they brought in Cole Beasley last minute. Cole Beasley tried doing what he could, but it got to the point where I think- He had one good catch, right? One good catcher. But yeah. He did, but like Tom towards the end of the game- We were hearing he's going to be so heavily involved. It's going to be Cole Beasley everywhere. Those are the reports. Yeah. But at the same time, like I think Tom Brady's like anger, like completely folded over in the fourth quarter where like he was just like, wow, this is what this is. Like he wasn't yelling. He wasn't screaming. He was taking bad sacks. And he was just getting up, looking over at the sidelines like somebody, like anybody help me. And it was, it was hard to watch. It really was. It was a very hard game to watch. Yeah. We'll see. I mean, Packers have hooned this week. They have a gimme game against New England, I think. Yeah. Back at home. So we'll see what's your background and what you're talking about today? My background, I mean, listen, I mean, come on, those dolphins. More and more so than anything, watching that Dolphins game against the Bills extremely impressive. And you know, just kind of like you talked about Aaron Rodgers having to go down to that, that Florida heat, the Bills going down to South Florida was a very big issue for them. I mean, Stefan Diggs was cramping up every 10 minutes. Yeah. He couldn't stay on the field. Josh Allen throwing the ball 60 plus times. You told me this. You said last week, because I was trying to, I was throwing my, you know, I was trying to get my ideas together. And you and I spent an awful lot of time together this weekend, which we'll have to get into at some point. Well, you and I bonded, but even before we left for Indianapolis, I told you that there's something about Florida and you couldn't agree more. I couldn't agree more. I mean, there, there was a big difference. I mean, growing up, I played a lot of sports. My life has a lot of friends from Florida that came up north and ended up playing at some level of college football up in Ohio. And the biggest difference to them always was like, there's no way a lot of these guys on my team up here in the north could have made it through those practices down in Florida because they are, they're excruciating. Yeah. It's a different breed of athlete that comes from Florida, Texas. It's, it really is, it's unbelievable. The fact that they can play in these conditions and that they can continue to stay on the field is probably one of the more impressive things in football that not a lot of people talk about. In Miami, those players are used to it. They're training down there, they get it. I've always, you know, there's always been a lot of lines you can cross and point from New England having to travel down there late in the season, early in the season, and the lack of success they have coming from New England where they're used to those conditions. But we did at least get in this dolphin's game, the butt punt. The butt punt. I know somewhere we have the butt punt. And look at this. This was magical. I mean, this was only, this is one of two plays historically yesterday that, you know, Mark Sanchez now is no longer the lead person for the butt fumble. It's now the butt punt. Butt punt is in in 2022. The butt fumble is out. Why should I care about the butt punt? Well, the butt punt honestly was probably one of the most crazy things because it couldn't have worked out any better for Miami when it happened. I mean, to run into your own player in the back of the end zone and for this to happen. But the fact that Miami's defense was able to stifle them on the last possession with Josh Allen trying to lead him back. It wasn't, it wasn't great, but look at this. I mean, what an amazing photo. How often do you see stuff like this happen in the NFL? NFL account saying, is this the greatest photo of all time? What a question. Oh, and Sharmin, oh. Sharmin, these cheeks are going in to need something soft. Check the DMs. Gotta love it. Look at this. Some branding happening. Mark Sanchez. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Stay out of my lane, bro. That's Thomas Morstead. We love to see it. We love some joshing in the NFL. Talk to me about the other thing you saw. Here's Tyree Kill. I've never seen a butt bump, but next time, Sherfield's gonna catch it with his butt cheeks because he's got strong butt cheeks. I think I took a nap during this. I was not, I was not around for butt cheek, butt cheek, Sharmin, Twitter. I was around for last night. I don't, you know, I want to love Jimmy G. The safety, break it down. I mean, listen, I know we had the safety play too, but the fun thing about this safety is, in which a lot of people won't give credit for, Jimmy G actually made the right play here. I mean, they end up losing the game, but he threw a pick six on this play. He stepped through the back of the end zone, which, I mean, Orlowski. Dan Orlowski was probably, he was hands down the darling of Twitter last night. Tyrico got that out real quick. Look at this. I've never been happier. Freedome. I mean, Orlowski has been seeing these tweets for what? The last 10 years? Yeah. Oh. I think Orlowski's okay. You're doing okay, buddy. You're crushing it over at ESPN. We love to see it. Step Brothers, very cute, very cute. It was. Not great Photoshop. It looks like a horror movie. Little face off, Don Travolta action, Nick Cage, but that's okay. Big news yesterday. How casual Apple music and the NFL during a nine game slate just throw out there that Rihanna's doing the Super Bowl halftime show. And can I tell you, can you think of a Super Bowl halftime that you've been more excited to see? I literally yesterday when it happened was like over the moon excited. Rihanna to me is probably a top five artist in my opinion. I love Rihanna so much. I mean, LeBron obviously loves it as well, but who doesn't love Rihanna? Like she's been gone the last, what, five years basically? Well, she hasn't been gone. She's been busy launching a lingerie empire, Savage Fenty and of course Fenty makeup, which if you saw what I looked under here, you'd understand how important my Fenty contour stick is and my lip gloss. I lose her gloss balm every day of my life. Really? She's an incredible business woman. I've been saying, and she gets asked this on every red carpet every the past five years, new music question mark? Like can we get, and so you gotta think, you gotta think we're getting a new album here. Don't you dare do this to me, to Adams. No, don't. Why would they come to the conclusion that it's her? Instead of somebody that has new music, a la, a Harry Styles or, you know. It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter who you get. Rihanna, Rihanna is gonna bring the bangers from the past. Oh, I mean, regardless. She will, but she's gonna have new music. Watch. I mean, if she comes out with new music, then I mean, consider this the best halftime show ever for me. Yeah. Ever. I mean, she could bring out Chris Martin from Coldplay. She could bring, I mean, she's done collabs with, she can bring out Jay-Z. That would be fun to watch. Now that would be something. She's done, she's done with Eminem. She's done it all. She has. She's done it all with everyone. So congratulations to NFL fans for getting the gift that will be Rihanna for 12-ish minutes in Arizona when the Eagles are facing the Bills. I cannot wait for it, K-Adams. Is this a little reread? Last one for you because you are my eyes and ears, all things Seahawks. This is it? I do not see this. And I don't think I care. So break it down. K, look at this corgi race. I don't care. I know you don't, K, but the world cares. Tell me what. We have a on the loose corgi after an amazing corgi race during one of the breaks in the Seahawks game. I mean, me personally, you know how big of a dog I am. This literally brought me a smile ear to ear yesterday. I just thoroughly cannot get enough of this and they couldn't catch the corgi. I mean, come on. What's better than that? Having a bunch of people trying to catch a dog and at the same time too in the Seahawks game happened against the Huskies too. There was a drone over the stadium. I can't. You lost me five minutes. You literally lost my attention the second. Oh, all right. It's over. Yeah, we'll get off the corgis then. It's over. Love you. We're done with the corgis.
