Kevin Cole, creator of Unexpected Points and former PFF analyst, joins Cade Massey, Shane Jensen, and Adi Wyner to share insights on how advanced models reveal hidden truths about NFL teams, quarterbacks, and coaching decisions, offering a sharper perspective on what early-season performance really means. Cade, Shane, and Adi also discuss how predictive models sometimes miss unique advantages like the Eagles' “tush push,” why metrics such as EPA per play may misrepresent team value, and how player evaluation in baseball—including Aaron Judge and Cal Raleigh—challenges conventional measures of MVP worth.

We hear from Steelers fans on the loss. The Steelers offensive line significantly struggled. Troy Fautanu graded by PFF as a 50 overall. Mike Tomlin said he punted on 4th and 1 near midfield to get the defense on a long field and help them. We think helping them would be keeping them off the field and the offense converts.

From halftime jubilation to dissecting those pesky penalties, this episode captures the pure chaos and triumph of a team that's firing on all cylinders. Host Ryan Schlipp fields calls on everything from Micah Parsons' beast mode to Matthew Golden's blistering speed that nearly torched the secondary. Debating the "window" myth: Why the young roster means sustained success, not a ticking clock. Gushing over standout plays like Tucker's long grabs and Love's pinpoint bombs, despite some overthrows. Fan predictions nail the dub, plus thoughts on Watson's extension as trade insurance for Dobbs. Roasting announcers and refs for biased calls, while praising the defense's shutdown of Daniels.

Bryant McFadden joins the show. He has faith that Broderick Jones will get it together and have a better game this Sunday. He thinks that PFF is dead wrong and Rodgers looked great. The eye test was passed with flying colors for Rodgers. What will the Steelers do at corner with Joey Porter Jr. seemingly not playing?

Things Discussed: Story time with Craig: Where the name Sooners comes from: it's the guys who cheated to get to the land stolen from the Indians. Oklahoma: Ultraconservatism made it feel like they're not trying to win this game. Every time they got to a decision point they made the conservative call. They ran on 3rd & 6, got four yards, and kicked a field goal. They punted rather than give ZVADA a shot at a 55-yarder. They kicked (and missed) a FG with 3 minutes before the half on 4th & 2 instead of trying to end the half. You've got 7 guys on the LOS and the CBs are off: you have to take that. Probably going to be a blip: you have to have a lot of confidence in your defense to play the way Oklahoma did. Michigan's gameplan: do all the things you do with a freshman QB. Oklahoma's gameplan: take away all the things people do with a freshman QB. It felt like a Dantonio Quarters where they have a safety who only cares about your run game and our disjoined offensive gameplans from years past where we don't have a plan to deal with aggression. Defense: Every vet played worse than his norm. Didn't know how to fit their gaps vs a +1 run game. Brian: That's the +1 run game. They ran Mateer 19 times—that is going balls to the wall. PFF scores: We don't agree with them. Grades for OL: Crippen and Norton were okay, Efobi okay, Sprague 2 big bads, Gio was good until he got hurt, Z-Marsh is not ready—Klein was a big loss as a blocker. Underwood: worse on the review than we thought. He missed some early reads and then Oklahoma sped him up. Also had major fetters on from his coaching staff. Once they're more confident in what they're seeing they'll trust him more. He can't read a smash route right now, so it's a pickle. Disappointed with Chip: You're supposed to be the guy who Malzahns our offense. Sam: they're playing the 2023 Penn State game. Difference in that game was Michigan had the top two defenses in the country. But that 2nd defense is on the field: Benny, Guy, Moore, Hausmann: That's the 2nd team! Defense: Predictable response: put 12 personnel on the field and go 4-wide. Wink needs to learn he can get away with regular-ass nickel unless they have impact blocking TEs. When you're missing tackles and chips and have vets busting there's too much on them. "Too much" may have been Game 2 with injuries piling up at cornerback, Barham out for a half, and playing in Oklahoma.

Munaf Manji, Mackenzie Rives and Dave Essler talk NFL contest picks for week 2. He argues the Jets “could have won” and notes Buffalo's heavy workload (78 offensive plays). With division games historically close, he sees value in the Jets. Munaf (12:06 – 13:24) – Agrees, adding Justin Fields' dual-threat potential and Breece Hall's role against Buffalo's shaky run defense. He stresses line shopping, noting DraftKings had Jets +7. McKenzie (13:24 – 15:24) – Supports Jets further, highlighting success rate: Jets ranked third-best in Week 1. He warns of historical ATS struggles for teams after miracle comebacks like Buffalo's. Consensus Pick – All three lock in the Jets. McKenzie Rivers (15:51 – 17:30) – Takes the Chargers -3.5 vs. Raiders, praising Justin Herbert's breakout game and offensive dominance. He dismisses concerns about travel from Brazil, saying rest days and comfort offset it. Munaf (17:31 – 18:52) – Agrees, even bought Herbert MVP futures. He views Raiders as vulnerable after travel from Foxborough. Dave (19:11 – 20:20) – Adds Chargers dominated Raiders last year, credits their underrated defense, and believes they can win the AFC West. Munaf Manji (20:21 – 23:22) – Picks the Cowboys -6 vs. Giants, citing Dak Prescott's history: 22-5 straight up vs. division opponents at home since 2016. 20-7 ATS (74.1%). 8-1 straight up vs. Giants at home, winning by 15.4 points on average. He doubts Russell Wilson can lead the Giants' offense, predicting Dallas rebounds strong. Dave (23:22 – 24:49) – Fully agrees, pointing out the Giants' defense allowed 220 rushing yards and committed penalties that masked their weakness. McKenzie (24:51 – 26:52) – Notes Dak was PFF's second-best QB in Week 1. Dallas showed top-10 offensive success despite losing to Philadelphia. He supports Cowboys strongly. Survivor Picks (30:04 – 34:58) Dave – Chooses Steelers, betting against Sam Darnold's inconsistency and praising Pittsburgh's home-field edge. Munaf – Chooses Chargers, preferring their divisional setup and momentum. McKenzie – Keeps his pick for a separate Survivor pod but warns Week 2 will bring “carnage.” Closing (35:36 – 38:44) The trio agree the Jets are their collective best bet for Week 2. Dave closes with thoughts on fading Carolina, noting Bryce Young's struggles and a porous Panthers run defense that allowed Jacksonville 200 rushing yards. Munaf echoes that Arizona may exploit Carolina's weakness with James Conner, Trey Benson, or Kyler Murray. Munaf wraps the show by thanking his co-hosts, reminding listeners of Pregame.com promotions, and urging them to enjoy the fast-moving NFL season. ✅ Final Consensus Best Bet: New York Jets +6.5 (with value at +7). ✅ Additional Contest Picks: Chargers -3.5, Cowboys -6. ✅ Survivor Selections: Steelers (Dave), Chargers (Munaf).

Steve Palazzolo from the 33rd Team joined the show. Steve defended his former employer, Pro Football Focus, on the harsh grading of Aaron Rodgers from Week 1. He explained why nice, schemed-up plays actually hurt the QB in their system. Steve discussed the verbiage that is used in PFF when it comes to grading QBs. Steve shared his thoughts on the Steelers offense on Sunday, a 34-point outburst. He said everything went Rodgers' way in the win over the Jets. Steve said people in Pittsburgh should be excited about the offense. Steve questioned the Jets' back end on defense, but credited their front.

Cam Heyward said the run defense doesn't fall all on him or the defensive line. The historic 2008 Steelers defense never gave up more than 122 yards rushing in a game – and that came in a blowout. What will this defense look like with Jabrill Peppers added to the mix? Heyward also talked about his new deal and the incentives trying to make it sound like all of the hoopla was worth it.

Terry Bradshaw is now a fan of Aaron Rodgers. He said on a station in Arkansas that Rodgers played great. Bradshaw was surprised the defense played bad. With some time and weapons, Terry thinks the Steelers can be something special. Crowley thinks PFF shifts narratives now like the AP Poll. 

Hour 2 with Dorin Dickerson and Adam Crowley: Roman Wilson only played 10 snaps. Crowley doesn't think they're dissatisfied with him. Mike Tomlin was very complimentary of Sam Darnold. Crowley thinks Darnold will be seeing ghosts. The Steelers signed Jabrill Peppers to a one-year deal. Jalen Ramsey only allowed six yards receiving, per PFF.

Heading into the Packers matchup, Lynnell says it's time to see more of Bill Croskey-Merritt. Despite playing only 33% of snaps in Week 1, Croskey-Merritt was PFF's highest-graded rusher and made history as the first player drafted outside the top 200 to rush for 75+ yards in his debut. On top of that, he leads all NFL running backs in EPA per rush after Week 1. Lynnell believes his performance has earned him a bigger role in Washington's offense against Green Bay.

Send us a textThe New York Giants preseason is officially in the books, and in this episode of 2 Giants Goofballs, Drew and Rob deliver a complete breakdown of the best and worst Giants players of preseason according to PFF grades, the latest roster cuts, and a look at the franchise's vintage and legacy uniforms returning in 2025. We'll also react to ESPN's Ben Solak ranking the Giants 22nd in “watchability” heading into the season.On offense, the PFF grades highlight some surprising standouts. Bryan Hudson (90.1) topped the entire unit, followed by rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart (84.7), veteran QB Russell Wilson (81.7), and depth names like Aaron Stinnie and Tommy DeVito. Meanwhile, the struggles of Evan Neal (48.2), Jon Runyan Jr. (47.7), and fullback Elijah Chatman (48.5) raise serious questions as the Giants prepare to finalize their 53-man roster.Defensively, Cor'Dale Flott (92.3) led the team with an elite grade, while the pass rush duo of Brian Burns (83.9) and Trace Ford (83.6) look ready to dominate alongside Kayvon Thibodeaux and Abdul Carter. But there were plenty of concerns on the defensive line, including poor grades for Jordon Riley (37.7) and Rakeem Nunez-Roches (50.2).The hosts also cover the Giants' recent roster moves. Jordan Bly, Zach Pascal, Montrell Washington, Jaison Williams, Jimmy Morrissey, Dyontae Johnson, K.J. Cloyd, O'Donnell Fortune, and K'Von Wallace have all been released, while TJ Moore was placed on IR after a brutal preseason-ending fibula injury. With the Tuesday cutdown deadline looming, these are just the first of many tough decisions for Joe Schoen and Brian Daboll.The show shifts gears to uniforms, as the Giants announce the return of vintage white throwbacks (11/9 vs Bears, 11/17 vs Packers) and legacy uniforms (11/12 vs 49ers, 12/14 vs Commanders) featuring the classic “GIANTS” helmet. Should New York bring that look back permanently?Finally, we react to ESPN's “watchability” rankings, where the Giants came in at 22nd. Ben Solak praised the defense, especially the pass rush led by Burns, Carter, and Thibodeaux, but questioned the entertainment value of Russell Wilson and Malik Nabers' early usage. The Goofballs crew debates whether the Giants are truly “unwatchable” or poised to shock the NFL in 2025.Call to Action: Giants fans — who was your preseason MVP, and which cut surprised you the most?

Today’s “Three Count” includes the Rockies hot streak of winning 6 out of 7 games and 4 straight, Patrick Surtain being underrated and coming in at number 6 on the top 25 NFL players under the age of 25, and 5.1 million viewers for the Bears and Bills preseason game.
