Mahomes, Bo Nix, and Homer’s Odyssey?! (Feat. SI's Matt Verderame)

September 11, 2026·58m

Football is back, and Dave kicks things off with a wild premise: why the modern NFL season is basically Homer’s Odyssey. Then, Sports Illustrated’s Matt Verderame stops by and brings the heat for Chiefs vs. Broncos. Matt breaks down why Patrick Mahomes is about to remind the world who reigns supreme, why Bo Nix’s mistakes will cost Denver dearly, and why this division rivalry is bound to come down to a single point. Finally, we lock in our game picks before we roast the J-E-T-S.
