  • taking a look here at Stephen.

  • A top five teams in the NFL last week.

  • Number five.

  • Packers four.

  • Hiss, Steelers.

  • So disrespectful.

  • Saints at three.

  • Bills at two.

  • Chiefs at one.

  • What changes?

  • This week, Mr Smith?

  • Go ahead.

  • Well, there's always changes because the list is mobile.

  • It's week to week.

  • Things change.

  • You ain't married Thio anything until come playoff time.

  • During the regular season, you got to generate interest.

  • Let's go to number five on my list, please.

  • Who Doe I have here?

  • The Tampa Bay Buccaneers?

  • Why?

  • Because I got a record.

  • Quite a quarterback in Tom Brady.

  • That's completely about 66% of his passes.

  • I got a defense.

  • That's number one against the rush and number three in yards allowed.

  • I got an offense that's got Let it for net averaging over four yards a carry.

  • Ronald Jones averaging over five yards a carry.

  • I've got Mike Evans.

  • I got Chris Godwin.

  • I even got some dude named Scott Miller and also I got Antonio Brown in grand.

  • I'm sorry.

  • I'm looking at the Tampa Bay bucking this, making amends for that blow.

  • I lost the New Orleans definitely in the top five.

  • I got to give it to them.

  • Let's go to Number four on the list.

  • Please give it to me, y'all, the Los Angeles Rams?

  • Why?

  • Because even though you look at Jared Golf and obviously he's had his troubles this week, Robert Woods has been playing well.

  • Cooper Cup is there?

  • Obviously, I'm looking at their three headed monster running the football relatively effectively, but that's not the biggest thing.

  • This team is a top to defense in the league in points allowed in yards allowed.

  • Don't get me started with what we saw Jalen Ramsey due to the great D.

  • K.

  • Metcalf just a few days ago, and we know what they could do against the Runas.

  • Well, the Los Angeles Rams or one of the elite defense, is in the National Football League with Sean McVeigh handle in their offense.

  • I'm sorry.

  • I got to give love to the Los Angeles Rams.

  • Let's go to number three on the list.

  • Please give it to me.

  • The New Orleans Saints.

  • Why?

  • Because even after a cracked ribs and a collapsed lung, Drew Brees still went out there due to touch down last time, I checked, even though he's gonna be out for a few weeks.

  • We got Alvin Kamara.

  • You got Michael Thomas.

  • You still got Emmanuel Sanders.

  • You still got Sean Payton calling plays with Jamis Winston and taste some help that he could utilize at the quarterback position in a defense that is far better than just respectable.

  • And we saw what they did to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

  • At this moment, they are on top three team in the league.

  • We gotta give love and respect where it's due to the New Orleans Saints.

  • Number two on the list.

  • Give it to me.

  • My team, the Pittsburgh Steelers, undefeated at nine and oh, ramrodded Joe Burrow and the Cincinnati Bengals, just like I told Max they would do.

  • I like Joe Burrow.

  • He's got tremendous promise, but gj wide had to let him know.

  • Excuse me, this is the A F C North.

  • Welcome to the North.

  • This is how we do it.

  • This is how it goes.

  • The Steelers undefeated got one of the elite defense in the game, and in case anybody missed it, big Ben Roethlisberger is playing like an M V P candidate in the National Football League.

  • Even when Cove in 19 has him quarantine for the week, and he's missing practices, still shows out on the field and shows out the Steel is the only undefeated team in the National Football League.

  • Are Number two?

  • Can't give him number one, though, because it's still that do Patrick Mahomes in Kansas City with the Kansas City Chiefs.

  • There's still Tyreek Hill on the squad.

  • It's still Travis Kelsey on the squad.

  • It's still Mako Hartman, and Sammy Watkins is still Andy Reid and Eric B.

  • Enemy calling place with a respectable defense.

  • We can't take the Kansas City Chiefs for exit for granted and just summarily ignore them because of their greatness.

  • We understand who they are.

  • We understand that everybody has to go through them.

  • You might have to go through the city of Pittsburgh, but to get to the Promised Land, you're gonna have to go through the reigning defending Super Bowl champions who, by the way, are just cruising under the radar to some degree.

  • Ain't worried about anybody.

  • Those are my top five teams.

  • Okay, the Bucks Rams Saints Steelers in the Kansas City is You know what?

  • You've had some sorry lists recently, but this is a good one.

  • The Onley gripe I have is the placement of the Rams, and even that I understand what you mean about the fact that they have a defense and everything.

  • But here's the problem.

  • Their last four games, they forget.

  • Four weeks ago, they lose to San Francisco when they have Jimmy G.

  • They beat Chicago in a tough close game where Chicago really had no line.

  • Play it all they lose to Miami is starting a rookie quarterback.

  • I know it was to a but still and he didn't put up big numbers or anything.

  • And then they just beat Seattle there, too.

  • And two in their last four with a couple of losses in games that a top four team probably should have one other than the Rams, I probably replaced them with the Packers.

  • I agree with the list.

  • Y'all, ma'am.

  • Max, you and I are reading the same sheet, man.

  • This.

  • Listen, Stephen A to your credit is the best list you've had since I've been busting up on your list.

  • So this is a solid list by you.

  • I respect it, but I'm gonna I'm gonna agreement with mask on the Rams because, hey, here's one other issue with the Rams.

  • Their left tackle.

  • Whitworth just went down with a leg injury.

  • I think it's four weeks or something like that.

  • That's a big loss for this team.

  • We talk about Breeze when he gets hurt, right?

  • We talk about like this is a big miss for that team.

  • Not only is, is he a decent, he's a good run blocker.

  • He's an excellent pass blocker.

  • That's the blind side of golf.

  • And we know, Listen, that's the iffy part.

  • I would put the Packers at five, the Bucks it four and then Rams at six.

  • But I like the list.

  • I think it's pretty solid, Steve, you should take some pride in this.

  • This man, this is like a minus.

  • First of all, a few people like Max Hold on, Max.

  • First of all, I take pride in all my list.

  • Secondly, I've never had a starry list.

  • Don't know what the hell you're talking about.

  • Thirdly, when you talk to win worth well, that's next week, cause remember, the list is mobile flu.

  • It's week to week, so global list.

  • So I'm allowed to do that.

  • Okay, let's keep that in mind.

  • Let's understand that.

  • And, oh, by the way, the reason I didn't have the packets necessarily on that list or whatever.

  • I'm looking at the Rams right now, Jeff Saturday, and I'm telling you, this defense is elite.

  • It's big time, and that's why I believe they belong on that list.

  • I can't rely on Green based defense the way I can rely on the Rams defense.

  • Remember when they lost to Miami?

  • That's because Jared Goff stunk up the joint with four turnovers in the first half.

  • Well, remember, they held two of the 93 yards passing and Miami the 55 yards rushing.

  • Their defense.

  • They did.

  • Their defense did their job.

  • They're doing two in their last four there, too, and two in their last four.

  • They have two losses in two wins.

  • I don't know if they deserve to be number four, even if you wanted to put him five.

  • Remember when Whitworth was a three?

  • Teams like Jack passed on him because they thought he was a little bit old to be getting guaranteed money.

  • Over years, Whitworth has been one of the best free agent signings by any team in recent years, he's absolutely key to the ramp success.
