Need to know what it takes for a home to fit your budget and your family? Well, Rocket can. It is week seven of No Huddle Offense, only on the Zach Gelb Show. One of the biggest plays and sound bites from another wild week in the National Football League. It's time for No Huddle Offense on the Zach Gelb Show. Love the performance that I saw yesterday from the Cincinnati Bengals.

Let's hope they can continue it. They destroyed the Falcons 35 to 17. Jamar Chase had a 41 yard touchdown reception to make it 28 to 7.

This is Dan Hoard and the sounds of Dave Lapham on the Bengals Radio Network. Burrow throws toward the left side. Back shoulder throw. Chase makes the catch. Cuts it into the field.

And the chase of Chase is unsuccessful. A 41 yard touchdown. The Bengals fourth TD in four first half drives. Eight catches for 130 yards and two touchdowns for Jamar Chase. Tyler Boyd led the Bengals wide receiving corps with 155 yards, eight receptions and a score.

And how about Joe Cool, Joe Burrow? 34 of 42, 481 yards, three passing touchdowns and a rushing score. Bengals go to four and three. They defeat the Falcons once again 35 to 17. Dak is back. Dak Prescott 19 to 25, 207 yards, a touchdown in his first game since week one. The Lions had five turnovers in this contest as they lose 24 to 6. And Dan Campbell is now 0, 11 and 1 on the road in his head coaching career.

Can't find a way to bite off those kneecaps on the road. He had a one yard touchdown. His second of the game. This made it 17 to 6 in the fourth quarter.

Here is the Dallas Cowboys Radio Network. Prescott under center. Pollard motion right. Hand on Elliott. Burrowing on the left side.

Wait for a single. Touchdown. Two for Zeke.

Touchdown Elliott. Our next stop Nashville, Tennessee. The Tennessee Titans and Indianapolis Colts. These two teams met a few weeks ago. Indianapolis got out to a 24, excuse me, Tennessee got out to a 24 to 3 lead. And they ended up winning the game. This time around at halftime it was 13 to nothing Tennessee. And in the first half of games this year, the Indianapolis Colts have been outscored 98 to 39. Now we know that Matt Ryan has been benched for Sam Ellinger. That was announced today.

Sam Ellinger expected to start the rest of the season. Let's hear Andrew Adams make a pick 6 to make it 10-0 in the second quarter. This is Mike Keith on the Titans Radio Network. Empty backfield on second and 13.

Ryan gets rid of it quickly. It's intercepted. 30, 40, 50. Adams 40, 30, 20, 10, 5.

In zone. Touchdown Titans. Andrew Adams to the house. It's the fifth straight win for Tennessee over Indianapolis and a big part of that is Derek Henry had 30 carries yesterday for 128 yards. Commanders, Packers, Landover Maryland. Let me just give you the Rogers stats and this basically tells you all you need to know from this game. Rogers 23 to 35 for 194 yards and two touchdowns. On third down, the Packers were 0 for 6. It's the first game without a third down conversion for Green Bay since week 6 all the way back in 1999. And it's the first three game losing streak for the Packers. Remember they lost to the Jets and the Giants two weeks before.

And now the commanders. It's the first three game losing streak for Green Bay since weeks 11 through 13 back in 2018. It's the first time in Aaron Rogers' career that the team is under.500.

They fall to 3 and 4 through the first seven games of the season. And the reason why they lost this game, Terry McLaurin from Taylor Heinecke. 37 yard touchdown reception. This made it 17 to 14 in the third quarter. Here is the commanders radio network as the commanders win 23 to 21. First and 10 at the 37.

RPO again. Heinecke going to take a shot towards McLaurin near sideline. It's caught! Touchdown! Touchdown Washington! A 37 yard bomb from Heinecke to McLaurin! Who had this on their bingo card?

Aaron Rogers losing to Taylor Heinecke and then Tom Brady losing to PJ Walker. T for Temple University! Fight! Fight! Fight! For the cherry and the white!

For the cherry and the white! We'll fight! Fight!

Fight! That's right. PJ Walker from the American Athletic Conference. Temple Owls who were the champions I think back in 2016. He was the quarterback. He was the game's most outstanding player up against Navy. He outplayed the GOAT.

Bah! Tom Brady as the Panthers win 21 to 3. Here's Tommy Tremble on a 29 yard touchdown reception from PJ Walker. This made it the final score 21 to 3 in the fourth quarter.

Here is the Panthers radio network. Walker the snap. Fires down field. Tommy Tremble's open. Makes the catch! Touchdown Panthers!

No run CMC no problem. Deontay Foreman 15 carries for 118 yards. This is the first time Tom Brady has a losing record through 7 games since 2002. Buccaneers fall to 3 and 4. Giants. Jaguars.

Comeback kids once again. Here is a Daniel Jones 1 yard rushing touchdown to take a 20 to 7 lead in the fourth quarter. And then the Giants tackle Christian Kirk right at the 1 yard line to end the game.

Bob, Papa and Carl Banks on the Giants radio network. Jones keeps it. Pushes into the line. No signal yet. He's in the end zone. No signal yet.

No signal yet. He's getting up in the end zone. Touchdown Giants! 7 seconds to go. Lawrence in a shotgun.

Empty set again. Takes the snap. Back to throw.

Steps up. Fires it to the end zone. It's caught at the 1 yard line. Giants stand him up. He's not in.

And the plane's gonna run out. The Giants stuck him in the 1 yard line. Holy cow! Incredible job by the Giants right at the end. They had 3-4 guys right around Christian Kirk as I thought for a second he was gonna get in. But a good job on gang tackling.

And I will say this. I thought a crucial mistake by Doug Peterson. Fourth and one. Not a lot of points in this game. He goes for it in a 17-13 game where he was winning. If he would have just taken the field goal, it would have been 20-13. We know the Giants ended up winning that game 20-17.

So maybe we could have seen overtime. Saquon Barkley continues to be a stud this year. 906 scrimmage yards this year. And in the contest on Sunday at 24 carries for 110 yards. The Giants are 6-1.

How about that? Ravens, Browns. Let's listen up to Gus Edwards on a 1 yard rushing touchdown. His second of the game.

No JK Dobbins. He's out because of an injury for the next few weeks. This made it 20-10 in the third quarter. And then let's hear Cade York another long field goal attempt. This time 60 yards. It would have been the game tying field goal attempt.

And it was blocked with 2 minutes to go. Here is Jerry Sandusky on the Ravens radio network. Jackson under center. He'll give it to Gus Edwards. Edwards looks to the left. Picks his way into a pile.

Converges. Touchdown Ravens. The yard field goal try for rookie Cade York to tie the game. Snap is down. Kick is blocked.

It is blocked. The ball will fall at the 10. And it will be down there.

And that will run the clock to the 2 minute warning. Gus Edwards in his first game since 2020. 16 carries for 66 yards and 2 touchdowns. Jets Broncos. Unfortunately, Breece Hall is out for the rest of the season with a torn ACL.

But he did have a 62 yard touchdown run to make it 7-0 in the first quarter. Here is Bob Waschusen on the Jets radio network. Bunch set left. Wilson under center. Takes the snap. Toss sweep to the left. Ball with blockers in front. Has a crease to the 45. To the 50. Left sideline 40. Down the sideline 30.

He's gone. 20. 10.

5. Touchdown. Breece Hall. House call. The Jets take the lead. I like that call a lot. Breece Hall.

House call. Unfortunately, Breece Hall is out for the rest of the season with that torn ACL. He did have 4 carries for 72 yards and a touchdown which is just such a shame because he was on pace to be the rookie of the year this year on the offensive side of the ball in the NFL. The Jets though are 5 and 2 as they take down the Denver Broncos. And Denver goes to 2 and 5 on the season.

Yikes. No Russell Wilson in this one. And it didn't really matter even if they would have had Russell Wilson. The way that Broncos offense has been performing can't have any confidence with the Denver Broncos. Raiders Texans.

It was the Josh Jacobs show. Here's a 15 yard touchdown. His third of the game. This made it 31 to 20 in the fourth quarter.

Here Jason Horowitz on the Raiders radio network in just a moment. Josh Jacobs in the game. 20 carries for 143 yards and 3 touchdowns. Jacobs broke Marcus Allen's record for most rushing yards in a player's first 50 games in Raiders franchise history. First and 10 on the Texans 15. Delayed hand up to Jacobs.

Huge hole in the middle 10. Touchdown Jacobs. The hot trick in the end zone. His third rushing touchdown of the day.

Hickey just want to get a little clarification here. The Seattle Seahawks are 4 and 3. They defeated the Chargers who are now also 4 and 3.

They blew them out 37 to 23. If I would have told you before the year that 7 games into the season the Seattle Seahawks without Russell Wilson would be 4 and 3 and have Geno Smith starting at quarterback you would have said. No way Jose. No shot. And you would have never believed right that the Denver Broncos would be 2 and 5. Also no way.

Well that's the world that we live in. Kenneth Walker he's really starting to find his groove the last 3 weeks. Kenneth Walker the third 74 yard touchdown run. His second in the game.

This made it 37 to 16 in the fourth quarter. Here's Steve Rabel on the Seahawks radio network. His last 3 games Kenneth Walker 8 rushing attempts against the Saints for 88 yards had a score against the Cardinals 21 for 97 and a score and yesterday 2 touchdowns on 23 carries for 168 yards.

The rookie running back out of Michigan State the 41st pick in the second round of the 2022 NFL draft is really starting to find his groove in the NFL. Chiefs and the 49ers. The debut of Christian McCaffrey in a 49ers uniform after getting traded earlier in the week by the Carolina Panthers for a 2, 3, 4 and 5. Kansas City trailed early by double digits. It did not matter as they ended up winning the game 44 to 23. Here's the JuJu Smith-Schuster 45 yard touchdown reception. This made it the final score of 44 to 23.

Here's Mitch Holtus on the Chiefs radio network. Time to throw over the middle. JuJu Smith-Schuster wide open 25-20.

Jukes to safety 10 gets a block angling near side pylon. Touchdown Kansas City in his yards after catch all day long. A 45 yard touchdown reception by JuJu Smith-Schuster.

That was the score for JuJu. He also had 6 other receptions. The total 7 in the game for 124 yards. Patrick Mahomes 25-34. 423 yards in a casual 3 passing touchdowns. Paul Hardman is the first wide receiver in the Super Bowl era to record 2 plus rushing touchdowns. He had 2 carries for 28 yards, 2 rushing touchdowns and a receiving touchdown in the same game. Kansas City they bounce back after a loss to the Buffalo Bills to just annihilate the 49ers in Santa Clara. And finally, dolphins, Steelers. Kenny Pickett returns from injury.

Tuatunga Vailoa returns from injury. And 2 in the game 21-35 for 261 yards and a touchdown. Kenny Pickett had 32 for 44 for 257 yards. One touchdown 3 picks. And Kenny Pickett according to NFL research has thrown 7 interceptions in his first 4 career games. Only other rookie quarterback to throw 5 plus INTs in their first 4 career games was... Terry Bradshaw.

Must be a Steel City thing. Let's listen up to Raheem Mostert. Had an 8 yard touchdown reception. This made it 7-0 in the first quarter.

And then we will also hear an interception in the endzone with 25 seconds left in the 4th quarter to seal the win for the Dolphins. Here's Ryan Rakey on Westwood 1. Hill goes in motion to the right. Snapped it to him. Back to pass.

Looking. Steps up in the pocket. Moving left.

Swings it out left side. Caught Mostert down the sideline. Into the endzone.

Touchdown Dolphins. Tuatunga Vailoa able to flip it out to Mostert on the left sideline and he walks in untouched. Pickett wants the snap.

He's got it. Back to throw. Pickett looking. Steps up in the pocket.

Pickett thinking about running. Now throws down the sideline. Percepted in the endzone. And it's Igbinoggini.

Kenny Pickett threw it to the corner of the endzone. Igbinoggini picked it off. Hickey can you try to pronounce that last name for me? Noah Igbinoggini.

One more time? Noah Igbinoggini. Can you say it 10 times fast? No.

I absolutely cannot because I don't think I can even say it one time correctly. War Eagle out of Auburn. Noah Igbinoggini. Good thing you're not a Dolphins play-by-play man. No. Saying that name all the time.

Those are easy. Tuatunga Vailoa. I think I've met my match. Noah Igbinoggini. I have no clue how to say that.

I think I'm adding a B too. How do you say it? Noah Igbinoggini. Noah Igbinoggini. Kenny Pickett threw it to the corner of the endzone. Igbinoggini picked it off. Igbinoggini. There you go.

Yeah, I would just be praying if I was a play-by-play man in that game. Just Noah I. Don't make a play, Noah I. There's two of T. There's Noah I.

Everyone knows. Everyone that is friends with Noah just calls him Noah I. I'm friends with him. I call him Noah I.

He only goes by Noah I. That is your No Huddle offense for Week 7. Dolphins take down the Steelers 16-10. Zach Gelb's show, CBS Sports Radio. Live and on demand. Wherever you are, whenever you want. And did we mention it's all free?

You can think of O'Reilly Auto Parts where your car care needs get guaranteed low prices and excellent customer service from the professional parts people at O'Reilly Auto Parts. So, Clemson struggled with Syracuse. I actually thought Syracuse played the better game, and it felt like Syracuse should have won, but how many times do you see, I don't know Syracuse undefeated going into the game, but on paper an inferior football team go up against a superior football team, the inferior team look like they're going to win the game, and then the superior team pulls a rabbit out of its hat and finds a way to get the W. The part that surprised me, because you and I are both kind of on the same page, we're going into this year, we weren't very confident with Clemson, I'm still not confident with Clemson, but D.G. Uncle Allae has had moments this year where he's impressed, not against the greatest competition, but the way that he played against Wake Forest and NC State, where you go, okay, he's turned the corner, and he's been a top 10 name in the Heisman Trophy conversation. Now, no one said he's going to win the Heisman, I don't think anyone has put him in the top 3, but there's been a top 10, maybe even a top 5 case to make for D.G. Uncle Allae to win the Heisman this year. And what we saw on Saturday afternoon was D.G. Uncle Allae look like 2021 D.G.

Uncle Allae, and not the D.G. U that we've seen through 2022, and with how adamant Dabo Swinney has been that D.G. is the guy, and that they're not going to put Cade Klubnick in for any serious reps in critical moments this year, and this is D.G. 's team, he deserves it, last year the offensive line stunk, the wide receivers aren't as talented as they once were, all the excuses have been made for D.G.

Uncle Allae in a critical moment with this season on the line, because Clemson, if they win out and they're undefeated, they're going to be in the college football playoff even if you don't think they're deserving. But the moment they drop a game, that opens up Pandora's box, and when the tough got going there for, and when tough times happened there for Clemson, Ryan, I was a little bit surprised, and it was the right call, and not that Cade Klubnick played great, and that's a tough spot for him, really his only good play was that 2 point conversion that he made, when it got a little bit of adversity in a critical spot of the season, this was the first critical spot they had all year. There was a quick hook there for D.G. Uncle Allae, it was deserved, but I was surprised with how vocal Dabo's been and how obnoxious, almost to a point that Dabo's been to defend and go out of his way for D.G., how in the first big critical moment it looked like they could actually lose, he yanked his quarterback out of the game. Obviously the right move, and look, we've seen Dabo not be shy about yanking quarterbacks, he's had plenty of quarterback decisions to make in the past, and has done so, and it's just kind of also kind of what we're going back to before with analytics, having a pulse for the game, having a pulse for your team, it was clear D.G., for whatever reason, just was not reading the defenses very well, was struggling with just ball security, was struggling with just simple plays, and so you almost had no choice of your Dabo, and you could have made the argument, you could have done it at halftime, like he was even generous enough to give him the opportunity to play. Like he was even generous enough to give him the start of the third quarter before yanking him after an interception.

It was the right move, and look, you mentioned it, it paid off in the end, but it wasn't because Kate Clubbing all of a sudden lit it up in the air, for sure. But it does show you that Dabo Swinney thought there was a better alternative than D.G. Uncle Allae, who's played well this year, to go win what was the biggest game of the season against an undefeated Syracuse team, and he went with someone else, and then you see that action, and after the game, not that I'm expecting Dabo to fully say Cade's our guy for the rest of the year, but he gave his full support to D.G.

Uncle Allae, and made it seem that D.G. is going to be starting now, they have a bye week, and then they play Notre Dame the week afterwards, when Clemson goes up against Notre Dame. So there's one thing to say that now, and there's one thing to voice that vocal support now, and this wasn't a Oklahoma situation last year, where they were trailing in Red River, and then Caleb Williams gets on the field, and he was clearly better than Spencer Rattler. Yes, Cade Klubnick won the game, but it wasn't as if Cade played great, so maybe that makes a decision to go back to D.G.

Uwe Uncle Allae easier, but I'm just curious, in two Saturdays from now, if it will actually be D.G. under center to start the game against Notre Dame. I think it depends what Dabo is trying to accomplish. If your goal is to just make the college football playoff this year, I think D.G. is the guy who gives you the best chance of running the table undefeated, and getting there.

I don't think it matters, honestly. But if you are like, does D.G. bring Clemson on the same level as Ohio State, or Georgia, or Tennessee, or even a faulty Alabama team, or if you want to put Michigan in the mix? I don't think so. I'm with you, no.

So, also, you're going to run them out there? I don't view Clemson as a championship team this year, and it's weird, because D.G. has played well enough to be the starter, but if you think Cade Klubnick could give you something more, which there was that belief before the year, yes, I don't look at Clemson as a national championship contender, but maybe they turn that page now. At least there's some unknown with Cade Klubnick.

What's the worst that happens? I get it. It's easier for us to say that in this position. We are just watching the games and talking about it compared to Dabo Swinney, but you're right. They're not an elite-level program this year like they were in past years. Now, when you are Clemson, you get everyone's best because of what they've done for pretty much the last decade. You have Notre Dame, first-year coach Marcus Freeman trying to make a statement on Notre Dame stinks. You have Louisville. Then you have Miami.

Mario Kristobolt has the ability to beat a big team, but that Miami program stinks right now. South Carolina, am I expecting? I know Beamer Squad plays tough, and you have Spencer out, but am I expecting them in that game? No.

But you're going to get everyone's best because you're Clemson. Should DJ lose any of those games? No. Should Cade Klubnick lose any of those games?

No. I don't think it matters, and it's a tough decision because DJ has played well enough to get the job, but can he take you back to that championship level where fair or not, that's the standard. And the answer of who do you have more confidence in, naturally because of the unknown and how highly touted Cade Klubnick is, and this was probably a similar conversation we had a few years ago, a little bit different because of who DJ was replacing, that we probably had with DJ, where, yeah, look at the prospect ranking. Look where he's supposed to be. He's going to be great. Remember when he filled in for Trevor Lawrence when Trevor Lawrence had COVID up against Notre Dame? He played sensational.

And it never really came together to make you think that Clemson's back to a national contender. Now you have a similar vibe with Cade Klubnick. Oh, this guy's supposed to be great. He's supposed to be awesome. You hear about all of his past in high school. Everyone you talk to, this guy's going to be a stud.

He's going to be a stud. I don't think it really hurts you if you go to Cade Klubnick. Because if you lose a game that you're not supposed to lose, is there even that thought that DJ absolutely is going to win that game if you end up losing it? I think Cade's a better quarterback.

I really do. And maybe that's because we haven't seen a lot of Cade yet, but on Saturday for DJ to play like that, it shows that I thought 2021 was out of him. It shows that 2021 to some part is still in him somewhere. And even when he's been at his best, I mean the two best games he had so far back-to-back, Wake Forest and NC State, he played really well. But also at the same time, we look at this Clemson team. The SEC stinks this year. Again, not at that top level.

So it's like you almost kind of reached your ceiling already with DJ Uwe Ungolais, which is a really good team, a playoff caliber team. But we've seen a gap, even playoff teams, between making the playoff and then actually legitimately competing and contending for a national title. I was actually rooting for Clemson to lose because I don't want to see Clemson, and something against Clemson the program, I just don't think Clemson is that good this year. And these semifinal games have been terrible in the college football playoff. Now is there a better alternative instead of Clemson? You know, that's a fair debate. We're going to have to see where we are at the end of the year.

But I wanted to see Pandora's box be open because I told you this a few weeks ago. You said, oh, Clemson could run the table and miss out on the college football playoff. If they run the table, they're going to be one of the four teams in. And that ACC has been so down this year, and Clemson is good, not great this year. I was hoping that Syracuse was going to beat them, even though Syracuse would still be undefeated. But does anyone think Syracuse is going to a college football playoff? Absolutely not. So I was rooting for Clemson to put some road bumps and some speed bumps in the way of them making the college football playoff over the weekend while it was happening.

Now it didn't end up going down that way. This is the thing, though. If they're not one of the four best teams that we're looking at, they won every game, but their conference stinks, I think there has to be a discussion. There could be a discussion, but you know what's going to happen. There needs to be a legitimate discussion. Is Clemson one of the four best teams?

Here's what we know. Two SEC teams will get in the college football playoff. Whoever wins the Big Ten, Michigan, Ohio State, will get in the college football playoff. If, let's say, TCU is undefeated and wins the Big 12, based off resume, they should be in over Clemson.

In the Pac-12, who would be the team that you think would have the best resume? Prove to be Oregon at this point, honestly. And Oregon already has one loss now to Georgia.

Yep. I mean, USC, no. If Clemson's undefeated, I think they get in over Oregon, even though the Pac-12 has run circles this year in terms of competition around the ACC. So we need Clemson to lose. But since that game on Saturday was their closest one, you think they're going to lose? Would you pick Notre Dame, Louisville, Miami, or South Carolina these next four games?

No. Maybe an upset in the ACC championship game? Now that's what we're going to have to hope for. Because I'm with you, Clemson probably does not deserve to get in the college football playoff this year. Even if they go undefeated.

But you know they will get in if they are undefeated. There's a lot to listen to. So get started and download the free Odyssey app today.

AutoZone. DK Metcalf did suffer a knee injury in the Seahawks win yesterday against the Chargers. He was carted off.

X-rays though are negative, so we'll see what the timetable is from here. But I don't know about you, Ryan. When I saw him get carted off yesterday, I go, oh, maybe he's just going to the bathroom again. Because it was no more than, what, two or three weeks ago he was carted off. And I'm thinking to myself, I was against the Saints, and I go, oh, what injury did he suffer? And then you just found out that he had to go to the bathroom. And then you find out that this was actually an injury. So unfortunate to see, but good signs that the X-rays are negative and he's not going to need surgery. What if it's like, you know, let everyone know, hey, I'm not going to the bathroom. This is actually serious to actually, you know, get the X-ray machine ready and treat it real instead of, oh, he's got to go to the bathroom again.

All right. Yeah, you say with the smirk on your face, but you're probably not wrong. Now, you never know if they recommended him to get carted off or things like that. But my first thought when I read the tweet, he got carted off, I go, well, is this actually an injury? Is he going to the bathroom again?

And how is this going to become a weekly thing with DK Metcalfe? But then you found out that it was an injury. The Seahawks, they're fun. I like this Seahawks team. And I feel like I say this each and every week, so I'm going to say this for my recap of week seven.

If I could have one wish the rest of the year, I want to see the Seahawks make the playoffs. Pete Carroll's likable. This team is likable. Geno Smith has played better than what anyone could have thought. Kenneth Walker's really starting to get on a little bit of a momentum wave the last three weeks.

I like Tyler Lockett, DK Metcalfe, you could be a fan of. Defensively, this team is playing better than what you thought they were going to be before the year. I'm rooting for the Seahawks the rest of the way in a division that is not that good. Cardinals not inspiring their three and four. Forty-niners, three and four, probably the most talented in this division. And the Rams sit there at three and three and they can't block anyone. I don't think they'll win the NFC West. I don't think they'll make the playoffs.

But I'm hoping that they do make the playoffs this Seattle team. Because it just shows you that maybe, just maybe. Russell Wilson, what he thought he was leaving, was better than where he viewed it. Because I'm not saying Russ didn't have some valid criticisms and valid complaints. But I always thought this situation could have been rectified.

And there had to be some middle ground that was met. Because Russ wanted it to be him throwing the football 47 times a game. Pete said, you throw too many interceptions when you do that. And we got to run the football a little bit more.

But you look at from, let's just say, a pure talent standpoint. Lockett and Metcalf are better than what the Broncos have on offense. And the Broncos' offensive line is not playing well. And Russ is starting to look like he is a football player that's in decline. Like, Geno Smith's not a good quarterback. But Geno Smith has outplayed Russell Wilson this year. And it just shows you what happens when you have the quarterback actually all in on the team. And not acting like a poser like Russell Wilson has been the last two years.

And really is what he's been doing this year in Denver. Come on. What, did the cat get your tongue there, hot day kicky?

You don't got no response to that? You're Mr. Russell Wilson. You're Mr. Anthony P. Carroll. You're Mr. Denver Bronco. You're a defeated man seven weeks into this season. I haven't even got to your Colts yet. That, I will give credit to the Seahawks and P. Carroll.

Because they have definitely proved me wrong for sure. This is like when a kid makes a mistake as a young child. And he has to then go talk to his mom and dad who he knows that he's in the wrong. And he really has nothing to say.

Ah! I guess the only thing, I just don't understand. I don't get it. I don't get how Geno Smith goes in there and actually plays well. And it's not like we saw this in training camp. The guy was battling with Drew Locke. For most of the training camps where Drew Locke got out. Because Russell Wilson wasn't fully invested. And when you claim to be a leader and you're not fully invested in believing in your teammates.

Most of the times it's not going to work. Running game now is better. The offensive line magically is blocking. Maybe the offensive line hated Russell Wilson.

Maybe that's what I just totally missed. Everyone hates Russ. And that's why the Broncos' O-line has gone to crap. And that's why the Seattle Seahawks' O-line is better than anticipated. Let me ask you this.

A year ago, Russell Wilson, through his agent, had four teams get leaked out that he'd be willing to accept a trade to. And then he shows up to camp and he's like, oh, Pete and I, we're best friends. We have a great relationship.

We love each other. There's no merit to that. That's all fake.

That's all fake. And if I was the guy in that locker room, I wouldn't say, yeah, let's go ride with Russell Wilson. Because this guy wanted out. And when you're supposed to be the leader and you want out and then you're there for another year, what do you think, those guys are going to fully buy into Russell Wilson?

No. And what you've been seeing this year in Denver, Russell Wilson is more about his brand than the success of the team. He's been a phony in Denver.

And he's been doing things that are so cringe-worthy. You find out, by the way, that Danger Witch sandwich, by the way, you can't even actually buy a Russell Wilson Subway sandwich. Wait, what? Yeah. What do you mean? It's fake?

There's no actual sandwich. Are you sure about that? It's not like something you have to order online or on the app. I think that's like one of those like super promotions where it's like, oh, download the app and that's the only place you can get it.

You really can't buy the Danger Witch anywhere? I don't think so. And what's the point? They're selling a fake product? Yeah, I don't get it whatsoever. Why would Russell Wilson do that?

Why would somebody pay Russell Wilson to promote a fake product that doesn't even exist? I don't know. Can you walk into a Subway store and say, can I get the Danger Witch?

I have no idea. I've not frequented Subway often. I don't plan on it, especially now with how Russell Wilson is making me look like an idiot. So the last thing I'd ever do is get the Danger Witch, but I assume at least you can go and buy one if you're still a Russell Wilson sycophant at this point. The sandwich is no longer on the menu. I'm reading this on CBS Sports right now. No longer? Yeah. Oh, Russell Wilson's Danger Witch sandwich removed from Subway menu after awkward commercials go viral on social media. That's the story. Wait, what?

CBS Sports. They are removing it not because Russell Wilson stinks right now, but because people are making fun of his videos that he promoted that Subway probably directed? If anything, if I see this commercial, it's more likely I would go to Subway than not because at least Subway's in my brain because I see the commercial how bad it is. Like last week I was craving a sandwich. I went and got this Danger Witch sandwich, but they pulled it from the menu. So the sandwich is now nonexistent. What?

That is literally the stupidest logic you could ever use. Oh, he went viral, which is free marketing for us. And again, who do you think directed these? I'm sure Russell Wilson had a hand in it. And how cringey it is. If you're Russell Wilson and they're paying you money, you got to understand that he has no pulse with reality and no feel for reality. You got to realize that he was going to look terrible in this. But to pull the sandwich. That's part of the issue.

To pull the sandwich. Geez. I like that is a first. That is a first. And that this might be a hot take.

I will admit I'll preface that. But before I say this, that might be worse. Pulling the sandwich might be worse than actually Russell Wilson's commercials. What's worse, his commercial getting the sandwich pulled or the play on the field? I mean, and the sandwich pulled is pretty bad. I think the play on the field's been the worst part. Getting your sandwich pulled because of you. I think almost everyone's outplayed him.

Yeah, that's true. Like we did this last week. It was like 20 quarterbacks we take right now. And P.J.

Walker looked better over the weekend than any time Russell Wilson looked this year. Real quickly, just win loss. Seahawks rest of the way.

They're four and three. Giants this upcoming weekend. Where is that game? That is in Seattle. That's tough. You got to go quickly here.

We only had a minute. Win for Seahawks. At Arizona. Loss.

So that would put them at five and four. Tampa Bay. Loss. Five and five. Raiders. Win. Six and five.

At Los Angeles. Rams. Loss. Six and six.

Carolina. Loss. Seven.

I'm sorry, win, win, win. I was going to say. Seven and six.

San Francisco. Loss. Seven and seven. At Kansas City. Loss.

Seven and eight. Jets. Seattle?

Yes, in Seattle. I'll go win. Eight and eight.

Rams, last game of the year. That'd be a win and you're in. Nine and eight, you have them going. I'm going to give them a loss. Nah, nah, nah. Come on.

I'm overruling you just for that. The Seahawks go nine and eight. Imagine they make the plus and then get the top three pick from the Broncos. They're winning that trade more and more as the days go on. According to Ian Rappaport, you have a trade in the NFL. The Jets are making a big trade acquiring. Jaguars running back James Robinson to help replace injured running back Breece Hall. Draft pick compensation is going back to Jacksonville. We'll tell you when it happens. Funny, I was in the newsroom today and people talk about who could the Jets trade for. I said James Robinson. It ends up happening.

How about that? Eric McElhaney, next. Throughout the 60s and 70s, cops hunted down key figures of the Dixie Mafia, including its enigmatic ringleader, Kirksey Nix. I'm in a rush to making money.

I'm not in a rush to hurting people. Fifteen years into Kirksey's life sentence, the Dixie Mafia was practically folklore, but that would soon change. I'm Jed Lipinski.
