Chris simms is the best football analyst. I started watching nfl for 2 reasons. Lamar Jackson and Chris simms. If you come down london, I have some lovely kush waiting for you.
AHMED IS BACK
JT is not that guy anymore…you are talking about what he used to be….he is not that guy anymore…his ankle is trashed…BAD…he is no longer a pro NFL caliber athlete. To quote Bill Parcells "What have you done for me lately" Please stop romanticizing about the past regarding him. The Colts have the biggest moral issue in the NFL today, it's bad….Pittman- "I don't care anymore, I could be somewhere else tomorrow" …seriously??? you wanna be on THAT team?? I feel bad for Sirianni and Pierce.
Ahmed is so lame idk why people like him so much. He doesn’t know football well and he’s not funny. And it’s even more annoying that all his attempts at humor are at Simms expense
Give him a kiss chris
Saints got majorly screwed by the refs a couple times in the playoffs, that's why he gets a pass.
Tim Patrick seemingly injured again ..KJ Hamler waived. Add SP's comments and it's all going in the wrong direction for the Broncos at the moment.
Week 5 will be fun and most likely not for Wilson and Payton
Hype for that Thursday pod 😁🙏🔥
Everyone forgets brees had 2 really good years with the chargers they just already drafted rivers too 5
Great to see Ahmed back. Excellent show!
I 100% Disagree… Irsay has EVERY right to speak his mind ! I'm sick of these fucking Selfish Greedy Thug players fucking the Fanbase and the Team ! I'm also sick of these Broadcasters pushing these salaries saying they deserve more and more and more…. Do these IDIOTS know who pays the cost for that ??? Us the Fans… where would any of these Jackwagons be with US the FANS ? Do they realize the cost of Tickets… Parking…. Concessions…. Merchandise. What will they do when they all price themsleves out of work ? What will they do when WE the Fans say ENOUGH and just walk away ? It's time for the Fanbase to say ENOUGH…. Players making Multi Millions while we the Fans struggle to LIVE ! Ughhhhh
Welcome back Ahmed! I'm so sad about Burrow. He is the face of the Bengals. One of my favorite QB's.
Sean Payton is scumbag who puts bounties on opposing team players, how he’s allowed to coach anywhere is beyond me.
Chris I just graduated college and got a labradoodle as my graduation present, and yes, I got it bc it doesn’t shed
If Herbert deserves more money, Lamar deserves to be in convo for team friendly deal. Herbert has accomplished less. Not one playoff win
We need Chris simms to do top 5 kicker ranking
17:27 the saints got screwed in 2018 , the team loss players after SB run. 30:12 the saints will win the division I stamped that . Until Brady came the south ran through New Orleans
Sean Payton didn't say Hackett was a bad person – there wasn't anything personal. He said that last year was the worst coaching job in the NFL – he simply stated the obvious. It wasn't a pesonal attack as Chris Simms and others seem to try to make it out to be . Come on – they struggled to get to 16 points all season and the last two they left that in the dust… giving the superbowl champions a run for their money and beating the Chargers… and they didn't have to have a special coach to handle clock management to accomplish it.
Chris – I generally enjoy your show and what you have to say, but I think you're going off the deep end here.
Mark Schlereth has a great take on this whole thing.

I like the point that getting paid 50 million less is no big deal to a QB when a second superb owl can earn them another 100 million in endorsement deals or broadcasting contracts or …
How does everyone not see Payton is right?
I see many ppl on reddit (lol) claiming the Watson deal is horrible. He's the 7th highest paid qb or whatever right now until Burrow re-ups. Realistically Browns arent giving him up after 5 years, same like Chargers arent giving up Herbert after 5. The language might not say fully guaranteed but fqb money is guaranteed, especially on a short term deal. Mahomes deal is horrible, and same with Josh Allen. Both guys deserve new deals. If anything Burrow should take every dollar he can. Dude has been injured 3 off seasons in a row or whatever now, and already destroyed his knee. They can keep him and Chase, but keeping Higgins long term would mean they would have to sacrifice elsewhere. Its not smart, keeping them together you just become early 2000s colts that cant get passed the better defensive teams in the NFL.
I dare Payton to lose two in a row haha. This'll be the comedy line of the season with an mvp in sacks at qb.
Richardson is at least a year from being ready I think? His tape left a lot of meat on the bone as to seeing the field.
