6:13You know there's a theory speaking of sports the doc Emmett Brown's sole purpose of creating the time machine was to change the outcome of the World Series I think it was to get the cubs to win or something like that because he was a cubs fan in the in the movie there's a whole theory that that's the reason why Like that's why he was doing it. Let me let me tell you this let me get this out the way we're getting to our predictions I I pulled a carcress wall slash doc Emmett Brown Marty great Scott when I tell you I popped up here after saying hide all our old friends Bumped I didn't see Adam shine he's usually see that guy well did you see anybody that people might know in the radio world I didn't see mad dog I was just popping around I finally said Danny G guys I love you I talked to you later I got a plug in can we know when I go live nationwide on Fox Sports Radio like go go go go you get a put your head down and just march to the studio rich Santa

We're gonna break it down Plus Rich is super pumped about his team tomorrow. It's an action pack week But we kick it off with our predictions. It's an annual tradition as it is and props to Dan buyer who started this years ago at the network Yeah, Dan. Can you tell us again? I know we did this last year, but you know, this is our fifth year at Fox Sports Radio Coming up on our fourth anniversary in afternoon drive. Yeah, four full time. Dan, did you uh did you create this when the world lived in black and white? Was it this wasn't from the 1900s? Was this like post right post COVID or pre-COVID?

9:22Uh, he's dealing with some breaking news in there. Oh, wow. Oh, how long has this been going on out Danny G? Like way before COVID. Oh, yeah. Oh, this is this is I think he said 15 years old. Oh, wow. It's been going on that long. All right. So you know it's everyone's AFC pick NFC pick your Super Bowl champs You're out on a limb. You're hot take essentially your MVP and more and we do it every year. So I say we get right into let's go And I will say I'm always fires up some NFL films music as we get set for what really is we just came out of Labor Day. I feel like this is the real national holiday Tonight. Oh, yeah, kids are back to school, Thornton Mellon style NFL begins. That's right. Patriots at the Seahawks and we fill in the in studio prediction sheet. Oh, buyer got freed up right now. By how many years now would you estimate you've had this in studio. I would say it's probably about 15. That's what I guess. And everybody's fired up for because we could see everybody's pick. It's all written out in the studio. We could see what we filled in. And you know some bragging rights involved. Yeah.

10:31There should be more of a penalty for people that were like so wrong about it. But you know, it's it's a really cool tradition. D.V. started it. It's what it is. It's what it is. It eliminates it down after the season begins. So is you want to know you want to hear the story about the lamination. It's twofold. Please. Number one, it's to prevent people from changing their picks. Number two, it also protects the sheet from all the food and drinks that people walk in and put on the counter. That's what's important. Protecting it from the trash. Evidably, there'll be some grease stain at some point covering some of the picks, but it is twofold to the. And by the way, once the list is once we cut it off, I will cut off the remaining entries because we had people used to fill in the blank entries that may have been left over. If we had a couple of blank spots, those will be eliminated. Well, Dan, I then I'll have to tell everyone the daily reminder. I don't know if it's like this where you work, but at every radio studio. People think they're Kobe and they try to they try to throw their half-field coffee cup in the trash. So behind every garbage can. There's stains on the wall. There's stains on the carpet. And you ain't kidding. When you that sheet, I'd give it one day before.

11:41Yeah, someone spilt her. It fills a plate of spaghetti on it. Kobe. All right, we start with Steve Covino. Oh man, like, now I know what once it's filled in, there's no going back. So there's some pressure like you said, this is a lock. All right, so we're starting with your AFC champ. AFC champ. I said it. We posted a video about it today. The bills, man, it's the bills. And here's why second best Super Bowl odds this year, only second to the Rams, but the Rams is such an obvious pick. And I believe in the bills. I do. I'm from the East Coast, grow up with a lot of bills fans. My brother's a big time bills fan, but I'm a big Josh Allen fan and a big Josh Allen believer. And he is the biggest reason it's his season. You need an elite quarterback, like Josh Allen to survive the AFC and his games evolved. Right. He could pass, but he's got the legs to make it happen. And to open up the field. So Josh Allen, I believe in him. I believe it's his year. It's his time. He came real close last year. But I also believe that DJ Moore might be the missing piece here. Allen to Moore seems unstoppable.

12:54The dude scored more touchdowns than anyone else. Any receiver on the bills right now. I like it. And now your NFC champ. Oh, I'm not done. Oh, he's not done. Look at James. Oh, man. Can Cade and James cook this team's going to cook. So the bills. All right. In the NFC, we already said it. The Rams. I hope they cook better than you. The best you can do is a scribble deck, right? A, but I'm getting better every day, bro. Every day. Okay. Let him cook as the kid will say, let him cook like James. All right. And now your NFC. It's obvious, man. And it's everyone's obvious pick. Right. It's the Rams. And I don't know why I think it just became more of the narrative than anything. Like, oh, man. The odds coming back. Oh, yeah. Let's go Rams. Really? The Rams. I know they're going to be that weekend's picking Australia mate. You know, we'll see what happens tomorrow. You know, Rich, not the blow smoke up your team. But the 49ers are going to give them a go. But I do believe it's going to be the Rams in the NFC. Okay. Now you're super bowl 61 champion.

13:57I said it and I meant it. I meant when I said and I said what I meant. Steve Favino's promise 100% and my promise is to the bills. I said it. Super bowl champs all day every day this year. It's their year. We say more than anything on the show that every team has such a small window to make it happen. This is their window, man. This is their window. All right. And now you're out on a limb. Now I'm a little tough on this one, bro, because. It's like a two fold two parts. So help me figure out what I'm trying to say here. I think the Cowboys are going to be better than anyone thinks, but I think the reason is that press got. I think he's always putting up solid numbers. I feel like a lot of times the season he gets in his own way a little bit. And I think that he gets past the last year. So maybe you could write in Dak has the best year of his career. Like Dak has the best year of his career. What I wrote here is Dak has an MVP season. Okay. Like type season. Wait, that's your what? That's my own on a limb. Well, no, no, no. I don't a limb can't be the second highest paid quarterback winning MVP. You don't have to add on a limb. No. All right. Get this.

15:06I mean, I feel like the national narrative though, Rich is that the Cowboys are probably going to have a good season, but I don't know if anybody's predicting Dak to have a MVP season. All right. No, I'll say this. Arizona Cardinals get five wins this season. It's more of an out on the limb. You're that on the limb. Those are two like out on a limb. One more. Can I say Rich, you have the Cardinals winning one game. So I'd say five is definitely out on a limb. Yeah. And the it was the overrun. There's what three and a half. No. It is five is their ceiling for sure. All right. Maybe I could maybe I could tweak my out on a limb since you don't like it. But worst season dolphins. Obviously, I don't see any problems there. The worst team you're taking dolphins. I'm taking the dolphins. I think they're going to be due to diapers. And my actual MVP, your MVP, my actual MVP of the season. And I already gave you the reason. Josh Allen, man, he's the guy this year. All right. Now Rich Davis. The floor is yours starting with the AFC champ.

16:07You know, my out on a limb should have been Rich's 49ers at the weakest record. How about that? Oh, all right. How about how about this? Wow. Wow. Wow. The bills. I love the narrative. I love Josh Allen. But I just don't I mean new coach. I don't know. I just feel like they've been close so many times. I would love to see it. I just don't see it happening. I think New England takes a mini step back. I think they played out of their mind last year. Do you think the Patriots are going to be 13 and 4 again? Probably not. Right. I mean, Lamar Jackson, New coach, you don't know Patrick Behalms. He's coming off an injury. You don't know. A symptomatic. Just a lot of I don't know. But you know what I do know. I do know that Joe burrow is the man is the man. And Joe burrow Joe burrow said that he wants he's you know, thinking into existence. He is he's put it out there into the universe. And I'm a believer in Joe burrow. So I think your AFC champions are the Cincinnati Bengals. Wow. All right.

17:08Cincinnati Bengals. And now you're an FC champ. Everyone so high on Buffalo and Baltimore. And I could I could see all that, you know, I rolls, but I'm telling you Bengals. All right. Now the NFC. All right. Here's what I'm thinking with the NFC. No team from the the East is strong enough. Eagles little step back. Cowboys little step ahead. But they're both playoff teams. Maybe. But nothing happens out of that. I mean, Chicago is a great team. But I could see Chicago losing a battle in the NFC championship game. Not against the Rams. Not against the defending Super Bowl. We all know what's coming. The Seattle Seahawks. I've talking about bang bang. Niners getting so 49ers NFC champ. You know what you're doing. And you interrupted me. So I'm going to interrupt you. When it comes to these predictions in these lists, everybody likes to be cute and rich made his little cute picks. When sometimes the obvious choice is the right choice. You know, and I didn't go Rams. But I do think the bills and the Rams will be there. Sometimes it's obvious. The not fun answer very well might be the answer.

18:15And Rich, I'm going to go out on a limb here and think that you're going to pick your Niners as Super Bowl 61 champions. Danny G. I'm calling it the rich Davis lifetime three Pete because the 49ers will now have beaten the Bengals three times in the Super Bowl. One when I was in diapers. One when I was a schoolboy and one when I'm a dad. I'm calling the Niners. I'll probably do it again when you're in diapers when you're 85 years old. Maybe that's the fourth. Maybe that's the. But no, when you're back in diapers, Bengals Niners, Niners win. Niners running the Super Bowl. And so it's the trifecta. It's the. It's the early 82. It was 80. It was 89 and now 2027. And now Rich Davis, you're out on a limb. My out of the limb. The highest paid quarterbacks going to be MVP. My out of the limb is that the Seattle Seahawks don't even sniff the playoffs. Wow. Wow. Seattle. Wow. You can't say that and not watch hard knocks, bro. They got chemistry.

19:18All right. There are because I guess what someone's out this year because I think I think all three wild cards are not going to come. I'm sorry. I don't think you're going to get two wild cards from the NFC West. They played too many tough teams. So I think someone's out and they think the out. The Seahawks. So Seahawks out. That's my out on a limb. The defending Super Bowl champs don't even make the playoffs. Now the worst team. The worst team by far is your one and 16 Arizona cards. Wow. Triple in down on the one and 16 quadrupling at least one and 16. Hey, and you know what? If the jets are feeling it, maybe they go 0 and 17. That's all I'm saying. All right. And now your MVP MVP. I've been high on this guy only because I think he's going to strike gold. I think you with a high period. I was on the flight last night. That's a story for another day. I've been way high on this guy. And I feel like he's got the special sauce now. Some gold, not fool's gold gold in the form of former 49ers offensive coordinator, former Dolphin said coach Mike McDaniel is going to take Justin Herbert to new levels.

20:28I think the chargers make a nice playoff run. They don't call the way. But I think it's the year where the charges break through and Herbert is just a machine. He's going to throw for a ton of yards. He's going to look disciplined in the pocket. I think Herbert is your MVP. I like that one. That's cool. So I feel like that's an out on a limb. But yeah, I like it. There you go. Got both Kovino and Rich's in studio predictions. Sometimes the obvious answer is the right answer. I feel like it's boring, but it's true. So like when I say Josh Allen, yeah, it's a boring answer. But you know what? I think it's a pretty solid answer. Rich, I like your answer. Just because I want to keep it fun, man. I'm staying away from anyone that's like a top two favorite in anything. Like to me, that's the one. That's like Rich's big dream and list right here. I didn't know. The big dream and list of the week. So we still got to get to Danny G. And Sam and we'll see what buyer has to say about all this. Yeah, we'll buy our fire back and have the Niners not sniffing the light. Yeah, and you know what? Fox Sports Radio Nation is not fun if we don't involve you. So your thoughts on these picks as we get super pumped for NFL tonight.

I survived and I've spent my life exploring how other people survive what should have destroyed them. I'm Elizabeth Smart and these are the survivor files. I just remember this low taunting voice next to my ear saying, shut up, don't say anything.

23:49Every week, I'm with survivors who live through the unthinkable. I knew if he woke up without a doubt, he was going to hurt me. I started feeling that there was someone at the end of my bed and I just started screaming. They are abducted, stalked, controlled and nearly silenced, but these aren't stories about what's taken from them. Their stories about what it takes to make it out alive. Listen to the survivor files with Elizabeth Smart on the iHeartRadio app Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts. Hi, this is Kylie Breakman, Angel Jaretana, Jeremy Colhane, Cash McDonald.

24:51Okay. A panel of New Yorker cartoonists. Have you guys done Terry Gross's Peloton class? No! I've been dying too. I'm so sorry, I'm seeing a reading of Sudako in the Thousand Paper Cranes by Auderman Donald at the Wonderland Bookstore, 14.

25:51In over my career, I've heard a count after a count of prosecutorial misconduct, story after story of injustice. But I've never heard a story quite like this. The more I kept reading that stuff, I thought, man, there's more red flags that just kept coming up over and over. We'll hypnotize them to strengthen that memory. So, we went into a good France. I really didn't believe any of it was real. And I was like, well, they're going to figure out this is not me. They're going to do their police job. Listen to examined the backfire effect on the IHR radio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Hey, everyone. I'm Mike M. And I'm Trevor Sikama.

27:52Hell yeah, we're ready for some football. Kavino and Rich, it has begun. With any G superproducing Iowa Sam on the ones and twos and DB's got your update and his picks in just a minute. Again, Broadcasting live from the Fox for radio studio coast to coast is to show you love most CNR on FSR. Now, Rich, any final words about your week as picks? I really love my, I love my Dan buyer beginning of the season sheet more than any other year. I love the idea of Herbert MVP. I love the idea of the worst team being the Cardinals. They're going to be one in 16. Seahawks, Missed the playoffs. I love that as my out on the limb. And I'm telling you, the trifecta, the Niners beating the Bengals in the Super Bowl for the third time ever. That's what it's all about, bro. All right. So who's next, Danny J? Sure. Are you ready? I'll go quickly here, AFC champ for me. I'm matching you, Kavino, the Buffalo Bills. I've been writing them in on this in studio sheet for years.

28:54They've been knocking on the door for years. This feels like the season Buffalo finally gets it done, gets over the hump and back to the Super Bowl. And if see champ, I'm going to go with the Dallas Cowboys. I love what they did in the draft to boost their defense, especially adding Caleb down. So I was wishing the Raiders drafted and J Sean Baram. I love that pick. I think with that new defense along with their talent, their weapons on offense gives them a chance to make a huge leap this season. But the Super Bowl winner, the Buffalo Bills. That would be a big rating, Stadia. Cowboys, Bills, Super Bowl would be ratings. Goal, baby. That would be a classic Super Bowl throwback. Bills finally finished the job. Win it all. Out on a limb, it's going to be my one home or pick. I don't have three like rich. Well, Danny, that would be a great redemption, you know, Super Bowl as well, because the Bills got clobbered two years in a row by the Cowboys back in the 90s. It would mean a little more to them as well as a franchise. I had heard Colin saying, I think he, you guys do a better Colin impersonation.

29:57He's the steal of the draft talking about steal of the draft. Thank you. Fourth round pick, Mike Washington, Jr. Stars daddy, long arms. Fourth round pick turns heads around the league proves to be the biggest steal of the 2026 NFL draft. He's going to be that Kubeak one, two punch like he had in Seattle. And for my worst team, I'm going to say the dolphins just because they're not only the youngest roster in the league, but they're paying a ton of money. 183 million dollars to players who aren't even on their team anymore. It's not like that's the weakest. Yeah, it's that I heard all season going to take them a couple of seasons to recover. So I could see things unraveling there in Miami. Although I am excited to see what Willis does at the quarterback spot. He's going to be on the line horn, Finkel Fickles, signhorn. And what should I talk about, when this

31:08is your MVP. He's definitely a bulge maxing. That's for sure. And now Dan buyer with your AFC champ, Dan. Guys, a lot of deliberation and I don't mean to pigeonhole myself, but I'm going to take you back to take you back kind of know about 18 months or so. Nice. And I was making a pick in the 2025 masters and it had been a long wait for Rory McAroy to win the Grand Slam. And I just said to myself, I am not going to stop picking Rory McAroy when the masters because when he does, I want to be on the winning side of that. And what happened, right? That's what that's what happened. Rory McAroy won. So when the Buffalo Bills finally make it back to the Super Bowl. I don't want to be on the wrong side of that. So give me the bills like Steve Kavino in the AFC. Man, Dan buyer. It sucks being on the wrong side of like a casual rooting interest. Like remember when I played the villain and I was like, go spurs over the nicks and I feel like I sucked the air into my own fun. Yes. Yes. So I go what you're saying. You don't want to,

32:10you don't want the year you finally say, I forget, Josh Allen. That's the year they win. And you can't enjoy it. It's like I don't want the C.O.X to face the bills in the Super Bowl because then I would all the, if the bills won the nation, we're going crazy. And then I'd be just miserable as a C.O.X fan. I did want to. In fact, I was, I was texting Monty Belonios and Kerry Rhodes because I gave my pick on Sunday on our show of my NFC champ. And I said, you know, the games tonight, I'm wearing my C.O.X sweatshirt like I am feeling C.O.X pride. But I am going with the Chicago Bears. A B and B Super Bowl bills and bears in Super Bowl 61 in Los Angeles. Is it that you're high on the bears or is there something about the C.O.X that you're now vibing? I think it's going to be incredibly difficult for them to repeat. It's back. It's I think they'll make the playoffs. I think that they will. And I think that they'll win playoff games. But I just think that it's tough to repeat as a champion. And the other reason why I like the bears is I actually think Chicago could go to LA and win a playoff game.

33:14So if the Rams are as good as they are and let's say they get the number one scene, you're going to have to go to LA. There would be a lot of Bears fans there. And I think that offense could match what the Rams do offensively. So I do think that the Chicago Bears could have an opportunity. I know there's defenses to question, but no team is perfect in the NFL. So give me a B and B Super Bowl with the bills and bears. Nice. All right. And then we go to out on a limb. Out on a limb. By the way, I think the bills beat the bears in Super Bowl 61. I'll just move on from that and tell you this. I've been on this bandwagon through the summer. The New Orleans Saints win the NFC South. I know it's not an out on a limb. But they were last place last year, only six wins. I think people expect a lot from the Buccaneers. We talked about yesterday when Baker got his extension. But the Saints are the worst to first team in the divisions this year. And there was always one, right? Yes. It seems to me. It seems to be always one team. Yeah. We've been we tried to talk rich into the Saints a couple of weeks ago down. We've been waiting

34:17for Saint schedule watching. We'll go through it. Sure we will. But I do think that's that's a great out on the land. All the way. Shuck finished off the season last year. There's a plenty of people high on the Saints. All right. At least enough. It's winning that division. Absolutely. Worst team. I there are teams that are just going to be bad from the get go. But I don't think any team is going to be worse than the Cleveland Browns. Oh, I give me the Cleveland Browns to be the worst team. I feel that Todd Monkin is a sacrificial lamb. I don't think that they want to win. I don't think that they want to win with Shador. They don't want to do Sean Watson. They want the number one overall pick. And I wouldn't put put it past the Browns to tank for that number one overall pick. All right. And your MVP kind of like I did with the bills. I've said I'm just going to pick this guy until he wins one Joe burrow since it had a bangles quarterback. I will just continue to pick Joe burrow until he wins an MVP. It's going to happen in our lifetime. I just don't know what year. So I'm picking Joe burrow as my MVP. Yeah. I love it. I feel like it's bound to happen. Right?

35:20You know, what I what I love is that we all watch the same games. We all are obsessed with it. We're all going to be watching tonight. Tomorrow, all day Sunday, all nights on day. We've been studying. We've been watching. You've been scrolling on social media. Yet the four of us all have a completely different list. I know. And that's what makes it fun. You know, we'll think of picture of it. So you can see we'll post it at Covino and rich. As soon as we hear Mike Tarekos voice tonight, we are going to be so. Oh yeah. And Carrie Underwood going to be kicking off the season because for the 14th year in a row, doing the waiting all day for Sunday night, but it's Wednesday night. You get the point. NBC. So 14 years now, Carrie Underwood and her arm or all legs going to be starting the festivities. I also love this tradition. When we make our picks on the air, we immediately get text to tell us where it is by random friends or friends. That's nice. So yeah. So I looked up and looked at my phone. Oh, let's see. Oh, okay. I'm a moron. So TB bills bears. Yeah.

36:23Covino bills. Ram. Boogan. Rams. Ram. Yep. I have a I have bills cowboys. And we're going to find out Iowa Samuel's picks after the update. Wait. So you three are all. Yeah, you guys are all hanging, huh? Yeah. High on the bills this year, man. So, uh, you know what? Think about your picks and we'll get to Sam. But since we got DB with his picks, let's do an update. What's up, Dave? I didn't come back with bills, bills, bills. I don't know what's going on. All right, guys, uh, some more drama today. What a day it was yesterday at the USO. Ben, of course, we had the match between Ben Shelton and Carlos Alcaras ending at about 330, just past 330 local time in Queens last night. More good tennis today. American Coco Gough rallied from losing the first set to fifth seed Mira and Drava as the fourth seeded golf rallied winning 7662 in the final two sets. Coco Gough onto the semi finals where she will face segatine Elena. Excuse me, Elena.

37:25For Bikina. That's how you got to pronounce it in the semi finals. All right, on to the matters that matter most Patriots and C. Oxtonite 820 Eastern time. No Travian Henderson forward to win them out with that ankle injury. The big news in the NFL is that Raider's 10 and Brock Bowers is not going to play against the dolphins in week one. He could miss a couple of games according to the NFL network. He had a Miniscus Tremenez knee and Dallas earlier this week. The silver lining for Danny steam. Ashton Gentie slated to fully practice today after injury his ankle during training camp. Malik neighbors fully practice for the giants. He's on track to face the Cowboys on Sunday night. The Vikings have the Packers. Kevin O'Connell named Carson Wentz as Kyla Murray's backup. JJ McCarthy is third string in baseball. The A's top to J's to nothing. Tigers lead to twin seven to two in the ninth. Cardinals of six one lead on the giants in the seventh while the Mariners have a lead on Texas 3-1 and the sixth and the Padres are doubling up the Nats 4-2. New York Knicks guard and NBA champion Jalen Brunson will host the season premiere

38:26of Saturday Night Live on September 26th. Guys back to you. House. Debe. I was listening to Jason Smith and Mike Harmon on my way to the airport last night. And I heard Steve DeSager talking about those late tennis games in Queens. Like we talked about the Rams and Niners adjusting for the time for a football game. Like is anyone really prepared to play tennis at 2am? No. It's a weird thing. No match started at 11 o'clock because the other matches went so long yesterday. You know, imagine you get pushed back that you're like you're you're on the tennis court after midnight. No, that's wild, man. No, for sure. By the way, I was wondering, does your dad know how to say Alcarazia or no? All Alcarra. Alcarra. My dad loves that. But that's the tennis guy. I know he loves him. Rich's dad is a huge huge fan. All right. So thank you, Debe. Thank you, Rich Davis. And speaking of Sam and his picks, because they're coming up here on the Covino and Richo Fox Sports Radio, we got to talk Sam's club. So you got your picks and a club,

39:28Sam? Yeah. Well, Rich football season is here. And if you're feeding a whole crew every weekend, like you normally do, game day can add up fast. Exactly.

When I was 14 years old, I was kidnapped and held captive for nine months. I survived and I've spent my life exploring how other people survive what should have destroyed them. I'm Elizabeth Smart and these are the survivor files. You just remember this low taunting voice next to my ear saying, shut up, don't say anything. Every week I'm with survivors who live through the unthinkable. I knew if he woke up,

41:40without a doubt he was going to hurt me. I started feeling that there was someone at the end of my bed and I just started screaming. They are abducted, stalked, controlled and nearly silenced, but these aren't stories about what's taken from them. Their stories about what it takes to make it out alive. Listen to the survivor files with Elizabeth Smart on the iHeartRadio app Apple podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts.

Have you guys done Terry Gross's Peloton Classic? No! I've been dying too. I'm so sorry, I'm seeing

42:45a reading of Sudako in the Thousand Paper Cranes by Audrement Donald at the Wonderland Bookstore. That's crazy. I went to the Wonderland Bookstore yesterday and I heard Nora Jones do a reading of Zero Dark Thirty. No way! Patrick of the last bookstore though, Kim Kertroll is reading the guitar tabs of yesterday. A panel of Eurovision participants. And we do a little Halloween sometimes. Does the Pope dress up?

My name is Josie Duffy Rice. I'm a journalist who covers the criminal legal system. And over my career, I've heard a count after a count of prosecutorial misconduct, story after story of injustice. But I've never heard a story quite like this. The more I kept reading that stuff,

43:49I thought, man, there's more red flags that just kept coming up over and over. We'll hypnotize them to strengthen that memory. So, he went into a good France. I really didn't believe any of it was real and I was like, well, they're going to figure out this is not me. They're going to do their police job. Listen to examined the backfire effect on the iHeard Radio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Hey, everyone, I'm Mike Am. And I'm Trevor Sikama.

So I'm going to go grab a little grub and then I got to figure out, I'm chilling in the York. Do I go to I guess sports bar with a buddy and just be like, watch a game, right? I guess that's the plan. Yeah, man, taking the East Coast atmosphere for the first game of the season for sure. When you when you haven't lived in a city for a while, sometimes you go back, I came back to New York this time, I feel like I'm on a different planet. Really? A lot of weed shops everywhere, right? Dude, everything smells like, but not good weed.

45:56That smells like urine and weed. It smells like pee and weed. Danny, New York City stinks like bed. No, honestly, you know, what we worked, we weren't used to that. We were used to like, like, rancid hobo ass, but we weren't like used to like weed smell in the air with, you know, hobo ass. Hobo smell that? Yeah, and now you get a little mix of all that when you're there. By the way, if you miss any of the show today, you want to catch the podcast, search Covino and Rich, wherever you get your podcasts and after the show, Danny G. Post the best of and a best of a week every Saturday, but we're streaming live right now at Covino and Rich FSR on YouTube. You can see Rich on the East Coast, me on the West Coast, the best coast. And of course, we're live from the Fox Sports Radio studio. We're putting in our NFL picks of the year. It's like sealed. Like, this is official now. So that gets me hyped in a little nervous. Got the nervous. You know what's and you know, who's really, really fired up, Rich and nervous about it because we saved them for last. Yeah, I was Sam. Are you ready for your

46:57picks? Yeah, I was Sam. What you got my friend? I'll keep it short and I'll keep it short. I want to hit you with all wind. I also want to throw in this caveat. This is Iowa Sam who last year picked a Patriots to go nine and eight when they're when they're over underwind total was eight and a half. My out on a limb this year is by far my boldest pick. And I think it's a decent one. All right. We'll start with AFC champ. We'll keep this short and we're going to keep it mostly chalk. It was either an AFC West team coming out of the AFC or the bills. And I went with the bills. Surprise, surprise. But like Cove said, the chalk is sometimes the right answer. The boring answer is usually the right one. Yeah. You know, I get it. People like to take a chance and be cute, but I'm not feeling that this year. All right. AFC champ. More chalkiness. I'm with the Rams. They're just so loaded. And I know like I don't think the pressure of winning at all is a type of thing that

47:58can affect Sean McVeigh in this team. So I went with the Rams. They are super blue. I love McVeigh. I hate the Rams. Yes, understandable. My super bowl champ is the Rams. Sorry, Bills. You continue to live the misery out for another Super Bowl. We've all been waiting for you out on a limb. My out on a limb pick is I love losing Super Bowls. That's a goal. By the way, help me before you give us the rest Sam because I'm on the edge of my seat. Did you hear Rob Parker yesterday talking about Donald and how he's worse than LeBron? He's worse than LeBron. He's making no sense, Rob Parker. I love him. Well, you know, he's saying that the team is really confident that this is their chance to win. That's why he's back. So, you know, I get it, Sam. They're a great team. Sam's got the Rams. He's right out on a limb. And that limb might be like a little stump. I don't know. We'll see. But, you know, of all the worst teams and the best teams, the Falcons are somewhere, I guess in the middle, maybe look more be lower towards the worst. But yeah, I,

48:59why not with Kevin Stofansky, either two or Michael Pentaxe, they got, you know, Drake London, they got B. John. I'm going to say they make the playoffs. That's my out on the limb. Wow. That's a good out of the limb. I think that division, I don't know. It's always a kind of a crap shoot. Who do you have to your worst team? By the way, Falcons odds to not make the playoffs a minus two 65 to make the playoffs is plus two oh five. So you'd, you know, I would be in fact out on some kind of dream. Yes, yes, you would. Yeah, don't juffle that limb. It's very fragile. My worst team, I remember it from this summer, the report that I saw about how Malik Willis and his dolphin teammates on offense had to get everybody in and be like, yo, this is not working out. We need to do better. So I'm picking the dolphins as the worst team. All right. And your MVP, my MVP, it's still Josh Allen's time. So I'm picking Josh Allen as the MVP. And those are my picks. All right. Now, Rich, you know, it's really cool. It started last year, but even more so this year, people are hitting us up on social media and are hitting

49:59up Danny G and a lot of our listeners, the Carl's, they we, they we even call them actually, they started out themselves. The coveno and Rich listeners, the Carl's. I love it. The Carl Nation, man. The Carl Nation's hitting us up strong. And they've been making their own picks. So Danny, you're saying that you'll keep track of it. If anyone gets some right, you'll hook them up. We did this all throughout the last couple of NFL seasons where we incorporate our shows email and you can send your picks into us. If you are right, where you're in the ballpark, as far as these picks go for the in studio sheet, I will definitely put you on our prize list. So here's the email address. You can fill out all them, but I'm most impressed by the out on the limb because that means you got to hunch on something no one else does. If you don't want to take the time to give us all your predictions, at least send in out on the limb. Yeah, because I feel like saying like, Hey guys, builds rams. Sorry, Sam. That's like, like, that's Vegas's prediction. Okay. I want to hear like the Falcons make the playoffs. That's a good one. All right. So Rich wants your out on a limb, especially and it's CR prizes at Gmail. That's CR as in the guys

51:02initials prizes, PR ICS at gmail.com. One more time, CR prizes at gmail.com. And I will lock those away in my inbox and keep them throughout the season. Nice look, because we want to give back, we want to keep you involved. We want to get you excited about the season. And look, it's one thing to listen. We appreciate that. But, hey, be part of what we're doing. Be a car like have you know, Rich, listen, there were a couple of times we did the bets, Rich, remember you put some money in the pot for all of us. For your for your famous solar power parlay's and there were listeners who wound up nailing the parlay's and they also got fat price backs from us. Well, thanks for participating guys. We appreciate it. I appreciate the Kavino Rich carls, Kavino Rich listeners more than anything. Now, Danny G, all these out on a limb are fun. I think I also want to, I think I'm going to start betting against the Cardinals every week and just doubling it every week. And for the whole season, I hope they wish I put my money when they're first game out the gate.

52:06That would be so big. But the thing is, I'm going to have to wait. I'm going to wait for a lot to win very little because there's such underdogs in all these games because they stink. So like week one, what's the point of betting them to lose when they're clearly going to lose automatically. I got to figure a way to make this work for me. How do I make it work for you? know what's terrible is Rich has you know, because draft Kings of Amel everywhere. He has it available like at his fingertips anytime he wants. Well, you know, even if they're even if their minus 200 or whatever they're going to be, or if the charges are minus 200, you're still making something off of it. Yeah. So if you continue to double up, at least you'll be making something you won't double your, you know, bet. But we've been making something off of it. DB, do you like your, do you like your Seahawks? That's that half a point scarier because I know it's three and three and a half in some place. That hook is always scary in a close week one game. I really like my Seahawks in the season. I don't like them tonight. I just think New England has

53:08all of the motivation. I, and I feel that that's a big part of it. I think I think you guys can win. I sort of like if you got, if you want to do some tricky teaser bet or get points, like I like the Patriots getting points. I don't know if they win the game. Your Seahawks are good, but I don't know. I just, I don't like, I don't like defending champions week one like that. Though historically, they've done well, but the Patriots geared up. Yeah. I like, I like defending champions, except when they play the team that just beat in the Super Bowl. Because that's so then not the other team actually has motivation. Yeah. All right. Well, DB, we got a lot coming up still. We got Midweek Major with Sammy Boy. Midweek Major. Sammy, you're going to break it down today. He's going to break it down and he's going to break dance probably because he's all fired up about the Reagan documentary on Netflix. So he might break dance. And we're still going to go over continue to go over tonight's game. The pants at the Seahawks. We got more Kavino and Rich live from both coasts with the best toast. CNR on FSR. Yeah, buddy. Paul begins. Go.
