Richard Sherman reacts to Russell Wilson leading the Pittsburgh Steelers to a victory over Daniel Jones and the New York Giants on Monday Night Football in Week 8 of the NFL season. Russ looked like his old self from the Seattle Seahawks as he sliced up the Giants defense by feeding George Pickens and Calvin Austin III. Are the 6-2 Steelers a contender in the AFC? Also, Richard reacts to reports that Christian McCaffrey has experienced "no setbacks" and is set to return to San Francisco 49ers practice, Trevon Diggs getting into it with a Dallas Cowboys reporter, Tyrique Stevenson drawing criticism for taunting fans at the end of the Chicago Bears loss to the Washington Commanders, and Sean Payton clapping back at Jaycee Horn after the Denver Broncos blowout of the Carolina Panthers.

John is back reacting to Mike Tomlin’s Pittsburgh Steelers, led by QB Russell Wilson and defensive superstar TJ Watt, defeating the struggling New York Giants on Monday Night Football by a score of 26-18. John salutes Mike Tomlin’s squad after climbing to the top of the AFC North with a Lamar Jackson & Baltimore Ravens loss this past Sunday. Despite all of the question marks surrounding the Pittsburgh Steelers, Middlekauff breaks down how Russell Wilson, George Pickens and the Steelers are surprisingly competitive before diving into how Wilson, the veteran QB, took back the starting job from Justin Fields earlier this season. Next, Middlekauff goes off on the hapless New York Giants and Brian Daboll, who has been coaching well, despite falling to 2-6 on the season putting them in the cellar of the NFC East. Then, John explains why Giant QB1 Daniel Jones is the “worst type of athlete” before going into the numbers on the former Duke signal caller. John goes on to explain why the New York Giants and New York Jets would kill for the front office success of the New York Yankees or New York Mets. Finally, another electric edition of Outhouse and Penthouse featuring Patrick Mahomes & the Kansas City Chiefs, the red-hot Detroit Lions and more. 3:10 - Giants at Steelers reaction 24:54 - NFL Penthouse & Outhouse 37:45 - Tyrique Stevenson cost Bears the game 44:02 - Questioning Anthony Richardson's competitive nature 52:03 - The power of good coaching Follow John on Twitter, Instagram and YouTube for the latest.

John reacts to another electric Sunday of NFL football, capped by a matchup between Dak Prescott, Ceedee Lamb and the Dallas Cowboys against Brock Purdy’s San Francisco 49ers. Middlekauff explains how the San Francisco 49ers have a challenging but realistic path to winning the NFC West after “the better team won” against the Dallas Cowboys. John breaks down how a late game interception from Dak Prescott cost the Cowboys in a 30-24 loss and explains why Jerry Jones and America’s Team could get lost in the shuffle as the NFC playoff race begins to shake out. Then, John salutes the Washington Commanders and star rookie QB, and former Heisman Trophy winner, Jayden Daniels for a miraculous Hail Mary that secured an 18-15 victory over former No. 1 overall NFL Draft pick Caleb Williams and the Chicago Bears. Next, Middlekauff sounds off on the rest of the NFL action throughout the day and dives into another edition of Overrated/Underrated before hitting on some of the weekend’s biggest College Football games. 6:37 - Sunday Night Football reaction 29:29 - Jayden Daniels' Hail Mary 34:33 - Overrated s.

Colin’s joined by John Middlekauff, host of “3 and Out” to break down all the week 8 NFL action! They start with Sunday Night Football and the Niners holding off the Cowboys. They point the finger at Jerry Jones for signing bad contracts and mismanaging team personnel (7:00) and point out that Brock Purdy and Dak Prescott are very similar quarterbacks…with wildly different paychecks (15:00) Then, they break down a crazy hail-mary finish between the Commanders and Bears and rip the Bears for their absolutely horrific offensive game plan and explain why they made a mistake drafting wide receiver Rome Odunze instead of drafting an offensive lineman (30:30). They point to a total “systemic breakdown” for the Jets after their third straight loss since firing Robert Salah and highlight their defense getting progressively worse (40:00). They both agree Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson can’t function as an NFL quarterback and agree that if the Colts want to win they need to start Joe Flacco (55:00). They call the Eagles win over the Bengals one of their most important, and call out Bengals ownership for being cheap and refusing to support Joe Burrow with a quality supporting cast and coach (01:09:00), and contrast that to the coaching job Sean Payton has done with the Broncos in order to get a subpar roster to a 5-3 start (01:17:00). Finally, they discuss the huge ratings so far for the Yankees vs Dodgers World Series and point out to the star studded lineups for both teams as one of the drivers of huge fan interest (01:25:00) (Timestamps may vary based on advertisements.)

Colin’s top takes of the week! He starts with the Rams beating the Vikings on MNF and explains why the Rams are still very much in contention in the NFC West and why they shouldn’t be looking to shop Matthew Stafford and Cooper Kupp (3:00). Then, he tips his cap to Kyler Murray and Justin Herbert for “pulling their franchises uphill” (11:30) and to Lamar Jackson for being the “best football player on the planet” (15:45). He also points out that despite his ups and downs in recent years, Russell Wilson has still played better than Aaron Rodgers (26:00) Next up, John Middlekauff stops by to break down a dominating win for the Kansas City Chiefs over the San Francisco 49ers (34:00) and debate whether the Houston Texans and Green Bay Packers are Super Bowl contenders… or a year away (44:30) Finally, Chad Millman, Chief Content Officer of the Action Network, joins Colin for a round of “Sharp or Square,” to help provide Colin with the sharpest betting advice for week 8 of the NFL season! 58:30- Cardinals vs Dolphins 01:01:30 - Colts vs Texans 01:04:45- Seahawks vs Bills 01:07:00 - Bears vs Commanders 01:09:30 - Eagles vs Bengals  01:17:00 - 49ers vs Cowboys 01:19:30 - Giants vs Steelers  01:22:00 - Jets vs Patriots 01:24:00- Ravens vs Browns 01:26:15 - Packers vs Jaguars 01:26:45 - Lions vs Titans (Timestamps may vary based on advertisements.)

John is back breaking down another edition of Thursday Night Football, this time led by Matthew Stafford’s injury-prone Los Angeles Rams taking down Sam Darnold, Justin Jefferson and the NFC North’s Minnesota Vikings by a score of 30-20. Middlekauff reacts to Matthew Stafford’s 4 TD performance, and salutes the Los Angeles Rams for a big win despite being decimated by injuries across the roster. John gives Matthew Stafford his flowers, and explains why he’s still SO good at 36 years old, showing shades of his former Detroit Lions superstardom and even displays a game similar to Hall of Fame QB Brett Favre. After, John says that despite their lack of depth, with Puka Nacua and Cooper Kupp back on the squad, Sean McVay’s team could pose some problems for the rest of the NFC as the season gets into full swing. Then, John goes across the NFL and breaks down the NFC East’s Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones popping up in the news as former players blasted the franchise for extracurricular tours, distracting the team from their goals.Next, John explains why he feels NY Giants owner John Mara eluded to the fact that GM Joe Schoen and HC Brian Daboll are safe for next season.
