I mean, what would you think of the Chiefs having a chance to be the first to ever win three of them in a row? Nobody would have enjoyed the last five years more than my dad. Earlier on the show, CBS Sports broadcaster Kevin Harlan, ESPN MLB insider Jeff Passan, Pro Football Hall of Famer Rod Woodson. Coming up, your phone calls, latest news and more. And now it's Rich Eisen. Our number three of the Rich Eisen Show live from Kansas City at the Total Wireless studio is on the air.

That's the new Total Wireless. What a lot of fun we've already had in the first two hours of day two of our three-day residency here in Kansas City, Missouri. We're here in downtown Kansas City getting set to head over to Arrowhead as soon as this thing is all over so we could watch the Ravens and the Chiefs kick things off. We just had a great chat with Rod Woodson who really helped us chop up what's going to happen tonight with the Ravens changes of men losing to the Chiefs last year.

I think he gave some really terrific insight into what is going on with last year's number one seed that we all thought would finally get past Kansas City and into the Super Bowl again. But as we all know, let me just check my notes, that didn't happen. So, you know, so there was that.

So that happened. Yeah, so this third hour is for us. Rod's our last guest scheduled for the day and we've got our Super Bowl previews still to come here and predictions to come on this on this program.

And we also have a little bit of a breakdown of tonight's game, what to expect. And there's also our phone call is 844-204. Rich is the number to dial. Curtis in Colorado Springs has been hanging on for quite some time.

We're here live in Kansas City. We're here, you're there. What's up, Curtis? Curtis, how are you? Hey, Rich, I should call you chef.

Why is that? Chef from here on out because you were cooking to start the episode. Thank you, chef. Thank you.

I am not, I'm not delivering a pizza today, I promise. But I did want to go back and revisit my, also Sravan, my buddy, a good buddy of mine, Sravan says hi to all of you. Very good.

Say hello as well. I did want to go revisit my win-loss game for the Chiefs because Kurt Morrison said something as I was, you know, getting off the air when I was doing that. He said there was no way the Chiefs are winning 14 games and I kind of thought about it and I just want to go back and revisit that. Okay, so I believe, are you looking up the paperwork right here?

You have the paperwork? Okay, good lord. Well, great job.

You know, I stay ready so I have to get ready. So, you're, you're, you're revisiting your win-loss game. What were the three games that... There's a win that I want to turn into a loss and then I want to be reminded what my losses were. Okay, so it was August the 15th, Curtis, when you called in.

Yes. Your losses were week two to the Bengals, week eight to the Raiders, and week 16 to the Texans. Okay, so you want to change a win to a loss. You want to change the Chiefs final record of 13 and 4. We've never done this before.

No, he had them at 14 and 3. I know he wants to change. He wants to change a win to a loss, a change with 13.

Which, which win do you want to change? The Bills. I was a little disrespectful to the Bills and you know what, we have an agreement. We lose to the Bills in the regular season.

We beat them in the playoffs, so we're gonna lose. Okay, so we'll swap this out real quick. So, Curtis, you've spent the last three weeks ruminating about your win-loss game and you came up to the conclusion that you are being disrespectful to the Bills only to call up and say something even more disrespectful in changing your loss, your win to a loss in the regular season.

Is that what I just picked up on? I'm a thoughtful person, Rich. I'm a thoughtful person. I didn't get the last year. I got the Detroit Lions opening night loss right. I got the Raiders Christmas Day game right, so I'm a thoughtful person. How about that? Okay, 13 and 4 though and I appreciate the call.

Thank you. I think 13 and 4 still is good enough for a one seed anyway. Yeah, yeah or a tiebreaker situation where it comes down to whatever with another team. Name me another 14 win AFC team. This season?

Yes, sir. Can't do it. There won't be one.

I can't imagine that there would be one, right? Doesn't seem, I mean, I had an overreaction earlier this year where I said no team wins more than 12. I just think the AFC is so top to bottom strong. You got the quarterbacks. Rogers is back healthy. Joe Burrow back healthy. Harbaugh now with the Chargers. Just seems like everybody's just going to beat up on each other. 11, 12 wins kind of does it and then, you know, kind of shakes out, you know, we'll see how the playoffs go. Do me a favor and pop the Chiefs schedule up one more time there.

I should have brought my book with me. I didn't have the same sense as you. Because the fact that I pulled out of the Niners schedule at the top of the show where apparently I was cooking, so I'm the chef. They play eight playoff teams from last year, so they're going to be tested. I was just wondering how many playoff teams are on the Chiefs schedule. The Ravens are the only one that they play until in week one until they play the Niners in week seven.

Then they play Tampa. That's three. Six. Buffalo's four. Cleveland's five. Houston's six. Pittsburgh's seven.

Seven, seven. So it's an easier schedule than the one that the Niners have, right? Yeah, by what? One playoff team, I guess. I guess and you could say that the Bengals with Burrow back is a de facto playoff team. I mean, you'd think so. I mean, the Chiefs are going to be, they're going to be challenged in the first three weeks with two teams that are very difficult to beat, but they're home and then they go to Atlanta for week three and we're just assuming Atlanta is better.

Yep. But can't, does it even matter what the Chiefs do in the regular season? All they do is get in the tournament and that's all that matters.

Then they come to your house and you have to beat them or you go to their house and you have to beat them on any given Saturday or Sunday or potentially Monday of a super wild card weekend. They're the new Patriots, right? So like for all the years of the Pats dynasty, every single week was a Super Bowl because it was that team's biggest game to play them and that's what Kansas City is facing now this year.

They're getting every team's optimal effort. Not that they weren't before, but because of their two-time defending champs. They didn't get it last year. They might've, you know what I mean? Like, so might have, but now even more so now that all we've been talking about for weeks is the three-peat and that's all we're going to talk about all season long.

Like every game is that much more heightened for their opponents. Yeah. It's like you said, man, like they, I just, I know you're not a believer in this three-peat thing. It's not that I'm not a believer.

It's like Rod said, it's just extremely difficult. Are they better? Yeah, they're better this year a little bit than last year, but so is everybody else.

True. And it all starts with tonight and we might as well just hit tonight right now because this is the top of our third hour here of our second day of the residency and it's time for our kickoff preview presented by Lowe's right here on the Rich Eisen Show in Kansas City. And in terms of the kickoff preview, I think it's as simple as this. Certainly since we just said goodbye to Rod Woodson and he just broke it down, how will the Ravens offense look with Derrick Henry in it? Listen, this Ravens offense is known for its commitment to the run because a Harbaugh is a head coach and that's what Harbaugh's do. I mean seriously.

Yeah. And the Ravens have a history of depending on the run and they lean into the run more than most professional football teams do in this quarterback-driven pass-happy league. And with Gus Edwards and JK Dobbins when they were healthy and Justice Hill who is still there just recently. And then obviously this is a team that once upon a time had a 2,000 yard rusher in Jamal Lewis back in the day. And we can go on and on and on with how this run first mentality that the Ravens have had even with Lamar running the ball too, right? They've never had a guy like the guy on the screen quite frankly. I mean let's be straight up about it, right? The guy on the screen in Derrick Henry and we had him on on Tuesday's show and I try to elicit an answer out of him on the concept of being an avatar for running backs at age 30 number just as a number.

It doesn't matter, right? And he's that. He is that. In a league where running backs are devalued more and more and more in terms of a contract with the exception being Saquon and Christian McCaffrey just for two. This guy has an opportunity to show 30 is just a number.

I am as healthy as an ox. Name me another 30 year old that looks like this, right? And how will it look? And the idea of having him stand next to Lamar Jackson in shotgun and have the ball just put in his belly right there at the mesh point might not be the best way to go about it because he needs a head of steam. He needs to start moving forward and then get the football. And maybe you've got a fullback actually in front of the sky in a system that is designed for it and you put Lamar under center and have a fullback in front of Derrick Henry or in a way that I think it's going to look, the pistol where you kind of get Lamar halfway into the shotgun position.

So you give him some level of comfort. He's comfortable obviously in shotgun one would assume and give Derrick Henry's right behind him to dot the eye and see what happens there because as Rod pointed out when something's happening at the mesh point between the two of them and you don't know if Lamar is going to pull it and run or he's put it in the belly of Derrick Henry with a head of steam and block it in front of him. Man oh man how does that look for the first time and it's Chris Jones and that front seven that Kansas City depended on so much for the push in last year's offensive struggle season. I can't wait to see that play out tonight.

Like how that battle is won because obviously we're also talking about Kansas City coming out of the box faster than before but Hollywood Brown is not playing tonight. He's hurt. How will Xavier Worthy look?

How will they employ him? Will Sky Moore look any better than he did last year? Because he and Kadarius Toney were definitely disappointments last year but Sky stuck around. He's still one of their guys that they drafted.

Kadarius Toney has been sent packing. That I think is it and how will Lagerius Sneed not being there look defensively but how can Baltimore potentially be the first to exploit that? I think it's all about the Ravens. We know how good the Chiefs are.

We know they're going to look good at home. Derek Henry in the last five years has averaged 1400 yards a season. He scored 68 touchdowns since 2019 and now you're putting him on the best running team in the NFL in that span as well.

I just cannot wait to see it. We've got to assume we talked about it with Rod. Only six carries by running backs in the playoff game last year. Got to assume Derek Henry's going to get six carries maybe on the opening drive. That would be amazing. That would be a lot in the opening drive. That would be just like here we are. This is who we are going to be this year.

Try and stop it. There's 22. We got eight.

Good luck. You know who took that approach in the kickoff game last year were the Lions. If you remember they went forward on fourth down deep in their own end of the second drive of the game when they got it and then wound up taking a lead on a touchdown and then setting a tone for the rest of the game and then the rest of their season in a way. Going forward on fourth. You got to wonder if the Ravens are going to tone set in that regard right and how will Patrick Queen's loss be absorbed by the Ravens defense and how will the Chiefs be able to take advantage of that too.

I cannot wait for it. I am also this may seem crazy. I'm curious how Travis Kelce looks.

Guys I wouldn't worry about. Guys had a pretty wild non-football offseason. We haven't seen much of him in the preseason. I'm just curious.

So what are you what are you curious about? He didn't play in the opener last year. I'm just curious what he looks like. I think he's going to look like the first ballot hall of famer. That is a major problem major problem but as Rod was talking about as soon as he got up from the chair he said then you know looking at the film of last year's AFC championship game they didn't chip him off the line.

They didn't touch him once. He got free releases. All day. I can only imagine that will be different. Yeah. I can only imagine that will be different. And there's no Patrick Queen there now to. It's going to be something else.

I cannot wait. That was our kickoff preview presented by Lowe's official partner of the NFL. It's easier to make the right calls with the right team so kick off your next home improvement project with Lowe's.

Lowe's knows home improvement. There is a news a news story that popped up in the National Football League yesterday that we did not discuss yesterday that we're about to dive into in the next segment. And I wouldn't go anywhere if I were you because we are going to cover it as only the rich eyes in show can. And that is Bill Belichick's on Instagram everybody. Words that just came out of my mouth that I can't believe I actually said. Instaface. It meant it. No no no it's Instagram. He might have called it Instaface. It was a real gram. Snapface. I'm saying that's what he calls it. Yeah he's on a gram.

IGB squared. When we come back on the Rich Eyes in Show. Honestly we're about to do something I did not believe we would do here in Kansas City.

Ewing staring out the cowboy hat at any rate and we sit down in this room and you say you know what we should do let's have a Rich Eisen show fantasy league draft yeah we're all here let's just do it i know and and there were some who weren't involved in it guys couldn't i mean no no but we're involved we're there right right right Sarah and Liz and Kristen were not there and Roku Joe didn't want any part of it and wanted in the league Joe well he said that he wouldn't have time to run it and it's like great i like hearing that from somebody who's basically you know honchoing the uh marketing and expansion and the distribution of our program yeah somebody basically saying i got stuff better stuff to do than i can't do fantasies with you yeah i like having my lights on i gotta be honest so so we decided to name the championship the Roku Joe Cup whatever was going to go for it but all i know is that we're like all agreeing let's do it let's sit down and do it while we're waiting for you know dinner to hit the table and then i just look in the corner and TJ's at the end of the table like steaming i was doing dude stewing you were so you were angry why were you angry i was annoyed why were you angry because i started on this show in march of 2018 when i got on the scene i said hey you know what we need to do a show fantasy football league 2019 2020 21 22 23 yes i asked you and chris every year i'm ready let's do this and you both just treated me like a redhead stepchild that's not true first of all first of all my brother's a redhead okay so let's let's choose a different analogy sir we're not turning off all the redheads out there the dreadlock step stepchild then i guess and you guys just wouldn't you would you know we've got too many leagues i don't want to do it every year these all true we are like hey let's do this brockman one year is like i don't want to do it if you're commissioner wow well that's a little disrespectful that i didn't you know that was one of them and then eric dane comes on the show and he tells you for 20 plus years i've been one of the best commissioners you gotta focus on that league you know so it just it annoyed me that like every year i tried to do it and then you guys shot me down and all of a sudden hey let's do it now and we all instantly literally within 20 seconds everyone's like let's do it yeah so well it also helped that we were all was it something was it something i said no we're all in the same place at the same time you mean like the studio and work every day for three hours a day five days a week exactly on the road you know like being there everybody wants listen listen listen i know you don't have children that's true okay i understand that i know okay ladies and gentlemen hey i'll be here all week or at least oh my word wow but no in in in all seriousness though like we're there at dinner it's no you know like where else am i going i have other things to do in life right you know and so that was my pushback then for five years okay i'm going to spend another hour hour and a half all my kids are basically hanging from the ceiling you know that's a very uh i guess uh uh out of control way to describe my normal lifestyle with my children but anyway the bottom line is like hey for 90 60 to 90 minutes i'm going to tap out and just do another fantasy league sitting at home no we're all there it's nothing against you we were at work but okay no we're working we're working and then you guys all got all over me because i got the 10th overall rich and had garrett wilson sitting there and literally garrett wilson your favorite player on your favorite team falls into your lap and what did you do she was pukanaku instead i'm not mad at that that was jet fans are so angry at me right now because i chose the dolphins to win the afc east i'm getting a lot of i'm getting a lot of memes about me being a uh a judas or being fake jet fan being fake being fugazi um being a turncoat trader i'm getting a lot of that it's like i'm just calling it as i see it which by the way i will do week week five jets versus vikings you know i'm also very sensitive on that subject matter because i'm calling a jet game on nfl network and i i will be calling that game straight down the middle as i do every single game just like i did calling the afc east for the dolphins just like i did last night when i'm like i'm going to go with pukanaku in a full point full point pr league full point i'm going with puka instead of assuming the garrett wilson to rogers connection would would be as special as we thought it would be last year before rogers put up a thousand yards with zack wilson i mean of course he's going to dominate with aaron rogers i hope so not you don't hope so because you didn't take him who did did took him james took him james did you get him james james yeah he gave us thumbs up here's the thing though was i i was annoyed for literally for like about the most fun draft ever but after that like sarah and liz says i just went with the bit after that i was just like pretending because i was like all right everyone's here then you were like tj don't worry we're calling in the wolf and i was like well hey that's all you need to say like you're calling in the world guess what guess what you choose you us basically heckling you into taking dak with a fantastic peer prior you've you buckled under peer pressure oh yeah because you have to peer pressure me and taking the guy who's the runner up in the mvp race last year we threw 39 touchdowns short right okay but here's the thing people at home after they disrespected me and wouldn't enjoy my league here we go here's what happened about 40 minutes after the draft was over we look at all our phones to get like our draft grades and what does it say oh the tj spite team because that's what i named them tj spite team is projected to win this league okay so hey holler at your boy yeah so so the ai the ai chose you right yeah by the way and your draft grade was still a b-minus that's that honestly that's the point that was a little weird it's a little weird yeah but they they said my team is i stacked up on running backs i'm nice i'm real nice you won the preseason congratulations to the dan orlovsky lions i'm not i'm not going to win 60 yahoo gpt said i was going to finish oh and 14 well there's a good chance that is going to happen you got the lowest draft i had the lowest draft grade did you really a d-minus whatever nobody knows rich d is for diplomas attaboy so i'm good don't worry about these as mike don't worry about it 844204 rich number to dial we'll take some phone calls also still to call me is our super bowl picks and our mvp picks as well um chris brockman rich words that i know you as a die-hard patriot fan never thought would exist uh me as an inveterate bill belicheck watcher and a colleague on occasion him showing up on the nfl 100 set never thought this would actually happen uh but it is proof there's actual proof there's a video to actually prove it yes and and and and again he's blinking so it's not like this is a hostage situation okay i only wish he had held up a copy of yesterday's newspaper right the proof of life is that uh there it is you could see on the screen right there his instagram account has been created unbelievable blue check mark what is it at bill belicheck at bill belicheck that it was available all lowercase there it is yeah he is on the gram do we have a video to prove it okay roll it hit it hit it hit it hello everyone surprised to see me here yeah well i am too over the past few months and not being with a team i love it i haven't had the opportunity to express my thoughts at a moment's notice so now i'm changing that i tried to join snapface but i couldn't find it i decided this was a good place for me to land so i could talk to you and share what i'm up to because there's a lot going on so here i am hello insta face see you soon is he reading a script maybe so teleprompter he's already on there so we're already seeing him the fact that bill is 75 years old the fact that bill is cannonballing into this social media pool he's everywhere the fact that he's going to say you know what i'm going to try media out circumstances have put me in the position trying out the media and he is going to be in the first half of the manning cast right he and payton manning are doing a friday show friday show he's doing mondays with pat yep right with macafee yep he's also what doing the 33rd team he's on the cw for inside the nfl inside the nfl yep everywhere he's absolutely everywhere and he's got his own instagram account i mean you way to go man way to go why not it's bound to happen and so and so um we're just wondering how into it he's going to get right for sure we're gonna have to look at the posts on instagram do we get anything from his personal life do we get anything from that let's keep an eye on let's keep an eye peeled for that because that's what the gram's about it's true you know it's true i don't know if bill knows what thirst trap means i don't know okay wow you probably think thirst trap is like a guard that's pulling yeah okay yes right so it's a 30-counter thirst trap we'll find out if he understands about sliding into one's dms oh i'm sure okay he probably thinks that's giving up on the play yeah when you slide into somebody's dms you have to you're you're being spotted right where the slide begins okay so this is amazing and also the question is is who is he going to follow right that's the big right how many how many followers does he have bill as of right now so he started it yesterday yes he's at 291 000 already wow he's almost said i've been building this cable on instagram i got a quarter of a million followers over all this time 24 hours he's almost he's 300k he's almost got numbers right now look at bill i'm sure he didn't buy any of these followers either mike bill's not but could you imagine who's the person who's the person that would have to sit bill bill to check down and say you know you could buy followers bill whose job would that be to actually explain to him that he could actually give harder money to one of his kids because then he would get the same number of likes as michael likes would help like you need more likes do you think bill's going to start doing toothy selfies toothy selfies like this is driving to work del tufo could give him all sorts of tips what because they got they both they both like uh being out on the open sea he's a good seaman bill's announcement post has 68 000 likes of course it does so he's good he's going viral this is great but you what do you want to do right so so i thought it was hilarious just to look at who so bill is following 12 people 12 people 12 people that's on tv 12 people that's what i'm saying and so i thought it'd be kind of funny if we could have a contest between you and tj can you guess who bill bellacheck is following on instagram okay how are we going to run this what are we gonna do here all right i'm gonna throw this out we're kind of gonna do feud style so i'm gonna i know whoever which one of you guys wants to start first okay and tj you can go you can just try to guess and uh three x's you're out okay okay so so he now is it family feud style where he keeps going until yes it's he gets three x's and then i have a chance to steal i want you to go back i want you to keep going and if you get an x then rich you have a chance to steal okay oh okay tj first and then i would keep going until he has a chance exactly exactly so it's sort of a hybrid family feud stuff yes who is bill bellacheck following on instagram now let me uh see what i know about bill now bill recently has started uh dipping back into the dating pool correct oh so i would imagine i've seen him taking pictures like an instagram boyfriend does a good instagram boyfriend so i would say right off the bat the person who helped him set this page up would probably be his you know his sweet little tender young thing so i'm gonna say uh jordan hudson uh this is getting followed by i hope he does man i hope he does tj i did not see you going there but you are correct he does bill does follow his new squeeze jordan he better unbelievable well done he may be joining this for professional reasons but he's still you know he's a man rich he's a man he better follow her going to jordan's page real quick you can see who else follows her tom pelosaro also following tommy just came up i don't know tommy you better not be sliding buddy oh my god i'm just saying sarah's gonna lock him out i'm just saying okay tj you're one for one it's for informational purposes obviously to follow bill obviously great who else is bill belicheck following tj jefferson well who else do i know about bill well i know bill was a fairly successful football coach true uh he coached the team called the new england patriots they won a lot of football games do you think he's gonna follow the patriots they well there was a man in particular who went hand in hand with all this winning so i'm gonna say that he also follows thomas edward does he follow tj yes he does of course he follows tom brady okay so everything's copacetic with these two huh they're good maybe that was remember when instagram buddies you remember when brady came back to new england as a member of the bucks and things weren't going well apparently between him and bill remember they had a meeting after the game like they were met for a long time after the game and they hash things out maybe it's just like one day i'm gonna join instagram but we follow each other right is that does brady follow him back is the question oh good question does brady follow him back is the question let's see hold on can i quickly can i quickly find this let's stir it up stir it up chef he does follow oh it's all good it's all part everything is good all right you're you're on fire tj keep going man what do you got so i'm gonna go a little left here right what else do i know about bill bill belicheck he is a student of the game right he's a student of the game he loves football he knows a lot about the history of football where could you get that history of football nfl films nfl films i think does he follow nfl films that's a good one i think that's gonna be a good one that is a great question as you know bill won an emmy award uh with you rich on the uh all-time 100 show he does follow of course he does nfl film bill knows tj jefferson is on fire you must be butter on fire it must be butter you think that price is right thing was just like you know set me up for this you're gonna leave me you're gonna leave me with nowhere to go slim picket okay all right then i'm gonna have to say he also follows nfl then at nfl wow very great deductive reasoning about you he does follow at nfl nfl if you tell bill belicheck once upon a time you'll be on instagram and you're gonna follow the league that's been up your behind as much as that has been it's crazy it's the pages this is crazy the pages i cannot believe it's a tsunami of page turning that's happening right now it's like bronson reed coming from brady follows the nfl you're down to eight tj are you going to get all 12 there's no way on the table but there's one more i i think i have to know for a fact that is he he's you mentioned him earlier yeah he's working with him he's going to appear on this show he made the announcement on this show that's got to be my guy pat macafee he's got to follow absolutely he's got to follow i'm like syd justice powerbomb you know it's funny if this was in order of when they followed them pat is first he followed pat he follows pat macafee shot yeah well done pat look at you pat macafee yeah all right now i'm in trouble you're on fire okay i want to say gronk right because that would make sense but something tells me no no you got to say no no no no you said it come on now all right well let me continue to my reason okay i was gonna say i was gonna say gronk but i don't know if bill's ready for gronk's foolishness on instaface he just got there he's not gonna be on it he's got people doing it but i'm saying he doesn't want to be overwhelmed with gronk stuff so all right since i said it i'll say it's a great thought i love where your head's at but bill belichik does not follow i've got an opening i've got an open i felt like steph curry in the olympics right there rob don't worry about rich eisen okay tj took some big ones off the board let's see what you got okay let's see what you got i'm gonna go that he's going down again the path of just his professional i say he follows payton manning i say he follows payton manning on instagram because he's doing the manning cast and he's also doing uh a show with payton manning on on a friday i say he follows payton manning that's a rich genius genius thought process by you he does follow payton okay okay i'm gonna keep on going with this i'm gonna keep on going with this okay he follows eli manning on instagram i say the guy who beat him twice in the super bowl he's gonna follow that guy both mannings that this is these are like it's a tsunami of page turning i don't know if eli's on the gram i'm a little nervous that eli's not on the gram but i'm saying he follows eli manning rich like nikki like nicki minaj said manning eli let me soothe your nerves about this eli manning is on instagram and bill pelicek does yes follow him this is crazy eli manning the man who beat him twice manning he died he follows him on the gram yes it's a tsunami of page turning okay i say he follows omaha productions on the gram wow i'm going i'm going down the whole manning cast list he follows omaha productions on the gram yay or nay chris brockman survey says yes omaha yes follow omaha productions he follows omaha productions on the gram how many we got left here all right hold on we got let's see we got three left okay he follows espn on the gram oh he's going to follow the place that he is actually working for on the gram he follows espn on the gram chris brockman yes or no espn is ctc and as we know to bella check but does not follow the worldwide leader but i took all the gram off the board the mannings are off the board tj there are three remaining one of them i know you will not get fantastic will you get the other two all right that's probably not i'm gonna go for it i think we actually sorry well there's four left there's four left there's four left uh tj jefferson this is great oh tj jefferson does andy reid have a instagram okay let's find out let's find out does andy reid have an instagram even if he does even if he does services he does not follow andy now would you like a hint no no no no i go i go i go rich eisen you are up with four remaining words i never thought i would say he follows ocho cinco on the gram he's working with ocho cinco on inside the nfl does bill bella check follow ocho cinco on the gram please say yes this would be the greatest moment maybe in the history of my life in the show it really would and maybe ocho could get bill a pair of debos and he still owes you but no bill does not follow all right we both have two x's all right so something popped into my head remember about two weeks ago we thought he was joining uh instagram and yeah twitter yeah or twitter and so i went and i looked uh-huh on twitter and i saw something and it was it was the bill bella check like it was like a an organization a group okay he was following on twitter like a bill bella check uh oh you're struggling you're swimming you're swimming bill bella by the way he's drowning cool for uh football you're on the right path i don't know i'm actually gonna give this to you really it's the bill bella check foundation okay that's close enough and i think that counts you are on the right path i'm gonna award you okay bill bella all right so you've got three more to go three to go tj three to go now do i want to give him a hint here no you don't okay i don't i want to but i'm not going to there are three remaining tj jefferson who is bill bella check following on instagram the rock oh wow oh wow who doesn't follow them on instagram right what does he have like 300 million followers unfortunately one of them is not bill bella the window is open i'm gonna do it will you climb through i'm gonna do it words i never thought i would say bill bella check follows the cw on instagram cw is the home of inside the nfl and bill is following the cw because he also wants to know what's up on the channel that he is being employed by please say yes chris brockman i can't say yes i'm not following the cw okay so what's the final three the final three is he one of the patriots no you are on the right path with with who he's working with so he does follow the 33rd team okay he follows the coach podcast his own podcast okay that he's doing with matt patricia uh with underdog so why not just talk to him and the final one is his his guy his consigliere bears bears he's following bears i should have guessed it i never would have got i knew tj you would not get bearish i really thought rich you were gonna i didn't think i didn't know bears

sunday ticket for out of market games excludes digital only games we have been predicting each and every division in the national football league for a week and a half and we we didn't just we don't just spitball we we designed it to finish up with the afc west here in the home of the two-time super bowl champion in a row nfl super bowl champion kansas city chiefs it's time to predict the afc west chris brockman you are first what do you have over there what's up guys let's try and get it all in so just what do you have of course let's go right to obviously this is the chief's division until someone takes it from them which no one will this year kansas city wins this division i think pretty easily i'm gonna go denver number two i think they're gonna shock some people oh that is shocking there i had the overreaction that bow nix will be the second best quarterback in this division i'm gonna i'm gonna back that play chargers third raiders fourth could be a long year in vegas tj you know i like to go four to one so i got the broncos coming in the rear i got the chargers at three i got the raiders finishing second and of course like you said until somebody stops them it's chief's kingdom yeah and i i i'm obviously going to take the chiefs to win this division i again bow nix 61 career starts in college he's still a rookie his first week one rookie that the broncos have started since john ellway in 83 and i understand he can he can be coached up by sean payton clearly but um and offensively i don't know the the weapons um are are even the best in in the division quite frankly um or even close to it so i'm putting the broncos fourth i'm putting the raiders third uh i'm going to chargers second uh and i don't think that's going to surprise anybody that i believe in harbaugh i like that we all want something different i i'm i'm going to take the chargers second i really think harbaugh does plus up this team and i think herbert's going to look terrific certainly if he is healthy as he says that he's 100 coming back from that planter fascia issue that kept him in a walking boot for two weeks in august uh and then the chiefs to win the division the roku sports channel we have some information about that for anybody who watches us every single day starting on monday live episodes of the rich eisen show stream on the roku sports channel every

collection as of now same day replays are available starting at 6 p.m eastern time that's just some information for how you can catch the show through the roku channel portal uh all right it is now time to predict who is winning it all and also is the mvp of the season now it's time for championship predictions presented by total wireless chris you're up first i want your mvp of the league and then your super bowl participants and who wins it all you have the floors man this is so difficult to think about there's so much great talent in this league i think quarterback play has never been higher obviously mvp is a quarterback award i'm thinking about narratives i'm thinking about who's making the leap and who's a new superstar in the league i'm gonna i'm on the bandwagon i'm gonna go cj stroud as mvp this year that is huge of the houston texans uh love his development his jump from year one i thought it was the best quarterback entering the draft and he really proved it last year and then i'm gonna i'm gonna back the play i'm gonna say the texans make the super bowl uh maybe they host the afc championship game i don't know but i do think they get it done and they're gonna face the green bay packers in the super bowl this is cooper's prediction of the super bowl last year brother remember you had that hot take of packers texans i'm gonna help packers texans in new orleans this year wow for the lumbar and the packers win it all i don't know who wins well it says packers over texans up on the screen packers over texans you can't you can't come on the championship predictions and then not choose who wins it so tj mvp super bowl big game prediction please mvp of the league well we know obviously we just should call this the most valuable quarterback because they're the only ones that win so uh you know this is a total race i'm going with b rabbit that's joe burrow i'm picking joe burrow to be the nfl mvp and then who makes the big game and wins it all sir well we're in kansas city right now yes sir and you know i'm a wrestling fan and and they rick flair used to famously say to be the man you got to beat the man and until somebody beats them they're the man so i believe that the kansas city chiefs this year will lose in the super bowl to the dallas cowboys because we're all in let's go i got to give the people what they want that press card is all in on the road to riches and diamond rings real players do real things and that press cut is going to be a real player he's going to carry us all the way to the top he's going to get that 70 million contract that's what you wanted and that's what i gave it to you can i get a hell yeah hey i had no idea i didn't know you were going to cut a promo in the middle of all that yeah all right um um my mvp prediction for this year is exactly mine what you just said i'm going joe burrow everything i hear is this guy is 100 locked in he is next level locked in that everything that has happened in cincinnati with his um the calf and his hand last year he is eager to prove that he is still the man there and i think the bengals will get joe burrow's best performance and he will be mvp only to lose to the kansas city chiefs who go on to the super bowl and win it all again as you know i am predicting the three-peat and i'm doing it over the lions i think the lions get through and give the lions fans what they wanted and then the chiefs will just we'll have spent an entire week in new orleans hearing about how the lions beat the chiefs in week one of the 2023 season and the chiefs are just going to have enough of it and they're going to three-peat that's my predictions that was where you and those were championship predictions presented by total wireless get unlimited
