NFL reactions, big games this week,
let's bring up the scores, because I want to point
out, let's start off, okay, let's go all
the way down first, and let's start off with the
battle for L.A., because we're L.A. guys, and we'll work our way up.
Right into business, this is Humberto, right into business.
The Rams are back to 500, they're 4-4,
I think they're riding the ship, they're definitely
going to, you know, they definitely got
their mojo back, the Chargers look like they're
not going to ever win a game this season at all,
they're going to go completely win.
Any Chargers in the house?
No, I've never heard a Chargers fan in LA ever there hasn't
I actually saw one guy with a Chargers jersey in a day
We're all around here. I was gonna stop the car and be like
Are you a Chargers fan? Yeah
But here's the thing, man.
The Rams are doing something I call spamming.
Okay.
They throw every pass to Puka, what's his last name?
Puka Nacua?
I'm going to go with Puka.
Okay, but it's like 11 receptions, which is great,
but you've got to spread the ball around.
Matthew Stafford only had like 150 yards.
But it's working.
Can we get a resident L.A. guy's reaction?
Let's go with Miguel.
Miguel, what do you think about the Rams?
What's up, Miguel?
What happened, man?
Let us know what's happening.
Are they good?
Are they bad?
There we go.
Rams are going to hit the wild card this year.
We've got to keep winning.
We need folks in our division to lose,
so tonight, all Rams fans and Browns fans, keep
running the ball, dude.
Chargers suck.
They pay rent at SoFi.
Let's go.
All right, all right, all right.
Yeah, there you have it, Miguel, the local L.A. football expert.
Okay, now let's work up some of these other scores.
Let's go up a little bit.
Okay, stop right there.
Wait, wait, wait.
Come back, come back, come back.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
Tampa Bay, Tampa Bay, Tampa Bay.
Oh, Tampa Bay.
Come back.
It's a historical game for Tampa Bay.
Dude, it was raining.
It's Florida.
I'm from Florida.
Torrential downpour drops the size of...
Sorry, bleep that out, Marisa.
They didn't complete one thing with that.
See, Baker Mayfield had zero completions in,
I mean, that's like a high school game from
like the 90s.
16-0, so Tampa Bay back on it.
Now, the score above is Pittsburgh.
I want to point this out.
I know that Cleveland's having a wild game, dude.
Well, Cleveland is coming back down to planet Earth.
I think that their few wins to start off the season
were kind of an illusion, but Pittsburgh
has one of my favorite players right now, Aaron Rodgers.
Why?
He's over 40, and he does ayahuasca.
I'm a fan.
There you go.
What are they, 5-2?
They're looking good in the ranking for Humberto.
Now, there was a very key game.
Let's go up to the, well, Jacksonville are good.
Detroit, okay, so Minnesota finally lost their first game.
We're going to touch upon this in the XOXO segment
coming up after the break about the historical defense
that Minnesota has.
They're blitzing a majority of the time,
and that's unprecedented.
I'll explain why.
But they lost to a very good Detroit team at Detroit
by only four points.
So I still see Minnesota as the number one seed so far in the NFL.
That was, though, a costly victory for the Lions
because they lost Jack Campbell to injury.
He was hospitalized after a neck injury.
Hopefully he's doing great and he can recover.
Speaking of injuries, can we go to the Ravens?
Let's go to the Ravens score.
Yeah.
Okay.
So Buffalo's looking amazing.
Josh Allen is looking as solid as ever.
Do you think they're like the Super Bowl contenders?
Yeah, we might see Minnesota versus Buffalo
in the Super Bowl if all things play out.
But let's stick to Baltimore.
They had a great team.
I'm not going to go stay on that.
We had injury news.
Their quarterback, Lamar Jackson,
broken thumb, I believe, season-ending injury.
Season-ending injury for him.
That is not good news.
Baltimore has a good team.
It's really a shame to see because...
It's sad when you see a team that is playing so well
lose one of the key elements.
You know that that magic that was being built
is going to take a little bit to be brought back.
But that's football, man.
Football, you have to count on the fact that you're going to lose.
And really quick, the Tennessee...
Cincinnati, what's that, Marky?
My feedback, Flaco.
I feel bad for Cam Ward, former number one pick out of the Hurricanes.
He had a great game.
He was throwing dimes, but Tennessee has no talent.
So Cincinnati eked out the game.
Jim Burrow.
Joe Burrow is considered one of the best quarterbacks in the league,
but I got to be honest with you.
Three interceptions in one game.
Yeah, even though he won.
Four touchdowns, three interceptions.

He gave me a lot of points in my time in the league.
I'm not going to say that.
