About this episode
Simms & Ahmed Fareed break down all the Week 1 headlines, take a deep dive on the 2 biggest games of the weekend, and take a pop quiz to recap the opening Sunday in the NFL. (5:05) Give Me The Headline, Part 1: The Pats are a well-oiled machine and everyone else is in big trouble; the Cowboys feel like they have a different aura; the Panthers blow a big change; and Todd Gurley is still special. (18:50) "Damn! Okay": Shout-outs to Kyler Murray, Dalvin Cook, and John Ross. All 3 entered with question marks, and all 3 made say "Dayyyum! okay." (30:30) Titans-Browns Film Deep Dive: Baker's no-good-very-bad-day, don't forget about Nick Chubb, and Cleveland's O-line gets a C-, and momentum is HUGE! (46:25) Give Me The Headline, Part 2: DeSean Jackson's speed and Doug Pederson's cojones rule the day; why the Jets lost the game in the 1st half; Jameis Winston & Jimmy G played a game of "who can screw it up more?"; and Melvin Gordon might have reason to come back. (1:02:20) Chiefs-Jaguars Film Deep Dive: Patrick Mahomes put on a display, Andy Reid put on a friggin clinic, R.I.P. to the Seattle Cover 3 scheme, Gardner Minshew (!) looks pretty damn good, and why the Chiefs defense looks so different. (1:17:50) Simms checked the rule book, and the Dolphins are allowed to play a safety in the middle of the field (1:22:45) Pop Quiz hot shot- does Simms know who was the fastest ball-carrier, who threw the longest completion through the air, and which team faced an 8-man box more than anyone else?
