In The Loop

This week on ITL, we've got a jam-packed lineup! First, we dive into Nick Caley's big test — is he showing signs of a hidden coaching superpower, or just rookie growing pains? Sunday should give us the answers, and we'll also discuss Thursday Night Football, injuries, and whether we're overlooking just how banged-up the Ravens are. Around the NFL with B Scott breaks down TNF, debates if Mac Jones is the real deal, and shares his Texans vs. Ravens thoughts, plus the latest in sports and entertainment in “What's Popping.” Audacy NFL Insider Jason La Canfora joins to preview the Texans-Ravens matchup, Lunch-Time Confessions digs into Reggie's TV setup, and the OG College Football Theme of the Week explores the “Life of a Showgirl.” Finally, in Texans Win or Lose Because, we analyze why the Texans win or lose — and Figgy's Mixtape brings trending stories, including Taylor Swift almost getting Figgy fired and whether CJ Stroud should learn from Deshaun Watson.
