00:00All right, in case you missed it last night, we had some Major League Baseball, not much

00:07of a game, had some NFL, probably not much of a game either, but let's go through it

00:11here.

00:12First of all, the Cincinnati Bengals, late last night on Sunday Night Football, dismantled

00:15the New York Giants.

00:17Best defensive performance for the Bengals all season long.

00:20There's no question about that.

00:21They've been the worst defense in the NFL, but they finally stepped up and did a good

00:25job.

00:26They didn't really need to do much.

00:27They mustered seven points in the game last night with the Bengals picking up the win,

00:32so Cincinnati kind of stays in the hunt.

00:33Giants, of course, taking a step back.

00:36Let's hear from Zach Taylor, the head coach, who, like I just said, is giving his defense

00:40a lot of credit.

00:41You know, our defense kept us in it.

00:42Our offense was a little sloppy at times tonight, but there in the fourth quarter when we needed

00:47it, everyone just stepped up and everyone did their job.

00:50Everybody finished.

00:51I thought special teams put us in some really good positions with some of those punts.

00:55And then defensively, obviously, getting the ball back and offense finished with the touchdown,

00:58so no better way to do it.

01:01Start building on that, and hopefully we can string some wins together.

01:03I think you can name a lot of people on that defense that really stepped up.

01:09You know, three turnovers on downs, the turnover, and just a lot of big plays.

01:14And they got some, and that's kind of how their offense operates.

01:17They got a good, efficient operation.

01:19I think their quarterback does a really good job, but our defense stepped up the right

01:22times and held into, what, seven points, I think it was, yeah.

01:27Meanwhile, the Giants situation just continues to get worse.

01:31Of course, they were playing without Malik Nabors, who may play this week, but of course

01:35has missed the last 10 or so days due to a concussion.

01:38So up against it was, of course, Brian Dable with his team last night.

01:41But after the game, not a lot to smile about when you only put up a seven against the Bengals.

01:46All right, tough, tough loss.

01:50I thought our defense played very good football, you know, missed the quarterback run early

01:56on a rush lane.

01:57But they played winning football to hold those receivers to what we held them to the past

02:03game.

02:04You know, I think Breaux had about 50 yards rushing.

02:07But hats off to the way the defense played.

02:09Missed two opportunities in a kicking game, and then didn't score enough points offensively.

02:13And that starts with me.

02:15And you know, it's hard to win games when you score seven points.

02:19And that's the reality of it.

02:20That's probably a number of things.

02:21Dan, I'll go back and watch the tape.

02:23You know, I thought we had some opportunities, you know, throughout the game, you know, whether

02:28it be run, whether it be pass, you know, we turn the ball over down there, you know, on

02:32that drive, which was a good drive and to come away with no points.

02:35And then I think five of 15, somewhere around there.

02:38Now we were aggressive on four down, as I thought we needed to be against this offense,

02:43but just couldn't generate any explosive plays we did.

02:47We had the penalty.

02:48And then other than that, we didn't hit many explosive plays.

02:52Giants offense, just ugly in a word.

02:54And it has been like that for the majority of the season, although it didn't play well

02:57against Seattle a couple of weeks ago.

02:59All right.

03:00Last night's game open and shut case, really, when it comes to the National League Championship

03:04Series game one, they'll play game two today.

03:05Bats are going to have to score some runs eventually.

03:08But again, are the Dodgers ever going to give up a run?

03:10They've now had 33 straight scoreless innings.

03:14And folks, that's not a typo.

03:15It was 9-0 last night if you didn't catch the game yesterday.

03:18So the Dodgers take a 1-0 lead in the best of seven series, kind of feeling like the

03:23Mets may need to win one game here in LA to stay in this thing, because the Dodgers right

03:26now are playing their best baseball of the season at the right time.

03:29All right.

03:30Let's go back to the NFL here just for a minute.

03:32Jacksonville was just one of the worst performances you could possibly see individually from a

03:37lot of different players on Jacksonville, dropping the ball, fumbling ball, all Sunday

03:41morning long in London.

03:43And now they've lost Travis Etienne, Jr.

03:45They're starting running back, although it looked like he was getting outplayed by their

03:48backup Tank Bigsby.

03:50Right now, it looks like Etienne is out for at least one week, maybe two.

03:55They're staying week to week.

03:56The Jaguars are headed nowhere, staying in London for this week's game against the Patriots.

04:02And also earlier this morning, a report from ESPN coming out that Hasan Redik, the holding

04:07out player for the New York Jets, although he's never played a game for them, has switched

04:11agents.

04:12His agent is now Drew Rosenhaus, and he'd like to get a deal done either with the Jets

04:18or somewhere else.

04:19Yesterday, in the NFL, the Dallas Cowboys are the gift that keeps on giving in terms

04:22of blowouts.

04:24When they lose, it's pretty ugly.

04:26And it was again yesterday, Lions laughing their way through a 47-9 victory over the

04:31Dallas Cowboys.

04:32They were three-point favorites in that one.

04:35The Cowboys haven't won a game at home this season.

04:37In case you missed it yesterday, Aiden Hutchinson had a very serious leg injury that is going

04:43to cost him the season.

04:44He already had surgery last night, and of course, he's one of the best defensive players

04:47in the NFL.

04:48Best defensive player on the Lions, for sure.

04:51Great game between the Ravens and Commanders yesterday, coming all the way down to the

04:54wire.

04:55Ravens win 30-23.

04:57Lamar Jackson threw for 323 yards.

05:01Jane Daniels had a nice game as well.

05:03Needless to say, Ravens, since starting off 0-2, they have won four straight games.

05:07And also, the Eagles needed to go all the way to the end against the Cleveland Browns.

05:11They win 20-16.

05:12Cleveland has now lost four games in a row, and I think I saw a stat that says they're

05:15the first team in NFL history to play six games and not score 18 points in the first

05:20six weeks of the season.

05:21That's kind of crazy.

05:22Tampa Bay's offense explodes.

05:25They go to New Orleans.

05:26They get 51 points.

05:27They ran for over 200 yards.

05:29They win 51-27.

05:31Remember a few weeks ago when the Saints were 2-0?

05:34And everyone was saying, yeah, they're legit.

05:36They've lost four games since then.

05:37And Tampa Bay has looked a lot better.

05:39By the way, that was probably the most impressive offensive performance for Tampa Bay in years,

05:42maybe even going back to before Tom Brady at quarterback.

05:45All right, interesting scenario playing out yesterday between the Chargers and Broncos.

05:49Not the game, because the Chargers dominated.

05:51The Broncos pretty much start to finish.

05:53But their head coach, Jim Harbaugh, exited the game with heart flutters, is what they're

05:57calling it.

05:58But he returned to the sideline.

06:00The Chargers beat the Broncos by a final of 20-16.

06:03But it really wasn't that close.

06:04Chargers were 2-1, some places they were three-point favorites.

06:08But Harbaugh, pretty cheeky after the game, saying that he had to go into the medical

06:12tent.

06:13But it was much ado about nothing.

06:14Yeah, everything turned out to be OK.

06:17I deal with this, I guess, minor, it's called atrial flutter.

06:22And I got into an episode today with it.

06:25And then doctors checked me out.

06:27And it got back into sinus rhythm, normal rhythm.

06:32So I came back.

06:34Yeah, I've had a couple of ablations.

06:38One in 1999 and one in 2012.

06:41And I always remember the one in 2012, because it was during the Monday night game, Colin

06:48Kaepernick and the 49ers versus the Chicago Bears.

06:52And Colin had a great night that night.

06:54And yeah, I knew I was in it during the game.

06:57And after the game, I got checked out and ended up having to have an ablation for that

07:02one because it didn't go back into rhythm.

07:05But 2-0 with an arrhythmias.

07:10Not something to be excited about, I would not think.

07:18All right, Packers dominated the Arizona Cardinals yesterday.

07:21Jordan Love threw four touchdown passes.

07:23Again, Green Bay wins 34-13.

07:26The Atlanta Falcons just handed the ball off to Tyler Algier and B. John Robinson constantly.

07:31Over 200 yards on the ground, they beat Carolina, final 38-20.

07:36And also the Houston Texans went up very big on New England.

07:40Patriots made a lot of mistakes in this game, fumbles, interceptions, et cetera.

07:43Although Drake May did make his debut and throw three touchdown passes.

07:46But relatively speaking, game was not close.

07:4841-21, the Houston Texans finally starting to play some good football.

07:52All right, new AP college football poll is out.

07:56Number one team in the country, not a surprise, it's Texas.

07:58So guess who's in at number two?

08:00Of course, it's got to be Oregon.

08:02After their win against Ohio State on Saturday night, Penn State's three, Ohio State barely

08:07falls to four, Georgia went to five.

08:09By the way, Army undefeated, Navy undefeated, both ranked in the top 25.

08:14Meanwhile, Texas, Oklahoma, Red River rivalry goes to Oklahoma, 34-3.

08:19Crazy game Saturday night.

08:20We don't have enough time to get into it, but Oregon ended up beating Ohio State.

08:24LSU beat Ole Miss in overtime and Alabama barely beat South Carolina.

08:28National League Championship Series game two is coming up tonight with the Dodgers minus

08:33142 on the money line.

08:34And of course, ALCS game one is this evening between the Yankees and the Guardians.
