Max Homa on Presidents Cup, Chess Drama, and Bills-Eagles Super Bowl

Monday Night Football gave us two absolute massacres, and Big Cat and PFT are already printing the Super Bowl tickets. The Bills and Eagles look like they are playing a different sport than the rest of the league. While Jalen Hurts was putting on a clinic, Kirk Cousins was busy being exactly who we thought he was in primetime.

The Bills and Eagles will play in the Super Bowl

I don't wanna overreact PFT, but the bills and Eagles are playing in the super bowl.

The Eagles did make the Super Bowl (SB LVII), but the Bills lost to the Bengals in the Divisional Round. The Super Bowl was Eagles vs. Chiefs.

PFT is officially out on the Vikings' signal-caller. After years of trying to talk himself into the Cousins experience, the three-interception performance against Philly was the final straw.

I am officially done believing in Kirk Cousins

I've been fooled by Kirk cousins for the last time, for the last time. That was the last time that he's gonna fool me for the last time last night.

This is a subjective sentiment of personal fandom/trust, though Cousins continued to struggle in high-profile primetime games.

The guys also took a second to appreciate Jalen Hurts, not just for his play, but for being a genuinely good dude who handle the Alabama situation with more grace than most veterans.

Jalen Hurts is the most likable player in the NFL

Jalen Hurts is like the most likable dude in the NFL. I mean, just the way he handled the whole Alabama thing shows that he's a great dude and a great teammate. Like there's a lot of guys that would've handled it very differently.

Subjective opinion on player likability.

Hank is so all-in on the collision course between Buffalo and Philadelphia that he's already putting his money where his mouth is.

I don't see how the Eagles or Bills miss the Super Bowl

I watched the games last night, right after put in a bet. Barstool sports book plus 1850 Eagles bills Super bowl. Anything less is an object... I don't know how either of these teams don't make the super bowl.

The Eagles made the Super Bowl, but the Bills lost in the Divisional Round to the Bengals.

College Football and the Triple Option

Georgia looks like an NFL team that accidentally ended up on a college schedule. PFT is convinced their defense is basically a professional unit that just hasn't been drafted yet.

Georgia's defense is currently an NFL-level unit

They're an NFL team, Georgia. Their defense is an NFL defense. It's just three years away from being in an NFL defense.

Subjective comparison, but Georgia's 2021-2022 defenses set records for NFL draft picks (15 in 2022 alone).

Speaking of elite units, Big Cat has a vision for the future of the sport. He wants to see what happens when you stop trying to be a pro-style offense and just embrace the chaos of the triple option with the best athletes in the country.

A college team running the triple option with five-star recruits would be unstoppable

I would love to just see the triple option with elite athletes, cuz no one, I would love to just see the triple option with elite athletes and how much it would fuck everyone up. Cause I don't know how you would defend it. If you had like five star dudes buying in to triple option.

This is a theoretical sports debate that hasn't been tested in the modern era with a top-recruiting program.

As for the coaching carousel, Big Cat thinks Nebraska needs to stop overthinking it. If they can get Urban Meyer, they'll be back in the national title hunt within a decade because Urban simply doesn't know how to do anything except win and eventually leave a program in flames.

Urban Meyer would win a national championship at Nebraska

Urban Meyer at Nebraska. I I'm confidently saying they will be in a college football playoff. And I would say, if he stays there, if you told me he's staying there for 10 years, I'd say they'd win a national championship. He's that good of a coach?

Urban Meyer did not take the Nebraska job; Matt Rhule was hired instead.

Hot Seat/Cool Throne: Anal Beads and Beyond Meat

The sports world has peaked because the biggest story in the world right now involves a Chess Grandmaster potentially using vibrating anal beads to cheat. PFT has gone deep down the rabbit hole and thinks the goat, Magnus Carlsen, might be projecting a bit.

Magnus Carlsen is likely the one using vibrating anal beads to cheat at chess

I think that Magnus... he's recognizing that the guy that he's playing against is stealing his trick, which is also using anal beads. Whoever smelt it, Delta. I think Magnus Carlson is the guy with the anal beads that's accusing our maybe our baby goat, our American goat.

The theory itself was a viral joke/hoax and never verified as a real cheating method used by either player.

Meanwhile, in the world of plant-based proteins, the Beyond Meat COO was arrested for biting a man's nose in a parking garage. Billy Football has a very logical explanation for why a man dedicated to fake meat would suddenly develop a taste for human cartilage.

The Beyond Meat COO bit a man's nose because he craved real animal protein

My hot seat is beyond meat. The COO. Yes. Of beyond meat after the Arkansas, Missouri game bit a guy's nose in a parking lot. And that's just a class example of a guy craving real animal protein.

A humorous, non-verifiable psychological claim about a real news event.

Max Homa and One Question with Josh Allen

Recurring guest and double Fortinet champion Max Homa joined the show fresh off his win and ahead of the Presidents Cup. The guys discussed the "dad strength" phenomenon, as Max is expecting his first child in November.

Having a baby will give me 'dad strength' to win a major

I've I've, I've heard that. That is in a big part of momentum. And also I've heard a lot of guys see, you get dad strength for a little bit. So maybe at Augusta I'll just be bombing it. Outta nowhere. So I'm looking forward to the, to the perspective I will gain. And the dad strength. I think that those are the things I've been missing in the majors.

Max Homa did not win any major championship in 2025. The 2025 majors were won by Rory McIlroy (Masters), and Scottie Scheffler (Open Championship).

Before heading out, the guys caught up with Josh Allen for a quick segment. Josh is playing the best football of his life, but he’s already getting tired of the league-wide trend of everyone claiming to be "Him."

The 'He is Him' phrase is being overused in the NFL

I think there's too many hymns right now. It's like church. There's a lot of them. There's a lot of 'em going around. I think, you know, if everybody's great. Nobody's great. So we gotta, I there's gotta be a new word.

Subjective opinion on cultural/slang trends.

If the Bills keep playing like this, Josh Allen might be the only one allowed to actually use the phrase.

Minnesota is a bad sports town for not retiring Randy Moss's number

Minnesota, what the fuck are you doing? Not retiring Randy Moss's number... The fact that you have someone a tight end wearing 84, Randy Moss's number. I don't wanna say it Hank, but bad sports town. That's a bad sports town move to not retire one of the greatest wide receivers of all time.

Whether a city is a 'bad sports town' based on one jersey retirement is subjective.

The Titans are in for a tough year because they have lost the 'rise to the occasion' edge they used to have

It's gonna be a tough year for the Titans. It doesn't feel... that was a game that Titans a couple years ago go in and win like 10 point underdogs because they always would rise to those occasions and they were never in that game. That was an absolute beat down.

The Titans finished the 2022 season 7-10 after a 7-game losing streak, missing the playoffs.

The Texas A&M yell leaders are actually good because they are so bad

I've gone full circle on the yell leaders. I think I kind of like 'em now. Because they're so bad. They keep going revital and the videos keep going out... they're so bad now that I think that they're good.

Inherently subjective assessment of whether something bad is entertaining enough to be 'good'.

Marcus Freeman might not be a good coach

Marcus Freeman's in trouble a little bit, a little bit. He might not be a good coach. I'm actually gonna say that. He's not.

Freeman turned the season around to finish 9-4 in 2022 and has remained the head coach with winning seasons since, though his 'elite' status remains debated.

Albert Pujols will not reach 700 career home runs

Pujols isn't gonna hit 700... [but] he would be the goat of all goats if he did that. [Foul ball guy] already is, think about the odds of that happening. It's impossible. If he gets [700], it's still the most like calling your shot on that is the most impressive stunt of all time. There's zero chance.

Albert Pujols hit his 700th home run on September 23, 2022, just two days after this episode aired.

Magnus Carlsen is a 'baby back bitch' for quitting the chess tournament

And then they, they, they finally have another matchup yesterday and Magnus quits after one move. He retires. And he disconnects his entire computer. I might not be this goat thing might not be working out. He might, he might be baby back bitch.

Subjective characterization of Magnus Carlsen's protest against alleged cheating.

Russell Wilson is identically copying Tom Brady's social media videos

Russell Wilson has just completely ripped off his [Brady's] post game videos like identical. And it was it. I mean, it's so Russ it's so Russ and for doing it for a 16, 9 win against the Texans was even better. Everything was, was exactly identical going from the, the intro, the different cuts, the type of filters, the music.

Visually and structurally, Wilson's 'post-win' videos in 2022 were nearly frame-for-frame copies of the style Brady's production team (Shadow Lion) pioneered.
