TNF Recap: Nick Foles tops Tom Brady again as the GOAT forgets it's 4th down and Bears beat Bucs (Football 10/9)
Welcome to a very special episode of the Pick Six podcast! Sure, Nick Foles beat Tom Brady again. Sure, probably the greatest player of all time forgot what down it was in the most crucial moment of the game. That stuff happens. However, this show provided an even more surprising Superfriends moment and something that hasn't happened since July. Well, now we're past that initial shock, the Bears did beat the Bucs 20-19 on Thursday Night Football. Will Will Brinson apologize for attacking the city of Chicago? You probably know the answer to that one. The crew also discusses some questionable coaching decisions, Brady's questionable play and much more during this TNF recap.'Pick Six' is available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, Google Podcasts, Castbox and wherever else you listen to podcasts.

Quarter-Season NFL Awards: Russell Wilson and Aaron Rodgers in 2-man race for MVP? (Football 10/6)
Cue the now very real sound effects. It's Wednesday and it's the Brady Quinn Football Show in your podcast feeds! This week, Will and BQ discuss Bill Belichick's scheme on Monday vs. the Chiefs (7:00) before further analyzing the firing of one of the members of his coaching tree, Bill O'Brien (11:45). What are the next steps in Houston? Brady offers his insight. We're 4 weeks into the season, so it's only appropriate for the guys to hand out quarter-season NFL awards (32:00). Russell Wilson and Aaron Rodgers are atop the MVP conversation, but there are some other names you shouldn't count out just yet. Defensive Player of the Year is a wide open race, but Will and Brady keep their picks within the AFC North. They stay there for Offensive Rookie of the Year as Joe Burrow has proven to be the obvious selection early on, but if Justin Herbert keeps his job, he could be a threat. Defensive Rookie of the Year and Coach of the Year picks are made to round out our quarter-season choices.

MNF Recaps: Chiefs top Cam Newton-less Patriots while Rodgers, Packers dominate Falcons (Football 10/6)
We had the luxury of two Monday Night Football games all the way in Week 4 and the Pick Six Superfriends are here to break down both of them. First, the Chiefs managed to improve to 4-0 with a 26-10 victory over the Patriots, despite Patrick Mahomes not having a great game. Will Brinson, Ryan Wilson and John Breech heavily focus on New England's quarterback play in the absence of Cam Newton and when we might see their regular starter back in action. Next up, it's analysis of the Packers 30-16 win over the Falcons. Now that Bill O'Brien has been fired, how much longer does Dan Quinn have left. And can Aaron Rodgers pose a legitimate threat to Russell Wilson in the MVP race? Those answers and more on this edition of the Pick Six podcast.'Pick Six' is available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, Google Podcasts, Castbox and wherever else you listen to podcasts.

🚨 Texans fire coach/GM Bill O'Brien - Emergency Podcast (Football 10/5)
Bill O'Brien is no longer the coach of the Houston Texans and no longer the GM of the Houston Texans. Will Brinson, Ryan Wilson and John Breech react to the surprising Monday news that O'Brien had been let go from both roles by the organization. BOB has been the subject of jokes on the podcast for years now, so the merits of the move aren't too shocking, but the timing and considering the status he held with the Texans caught the Pick Six Superfriends off guard. The guys walk through his timeline with the team before examining what the future holds in Houston.'Pick Six' is available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, Google Podcasts, Castbox and wherever else you listen to podcasts.
