    NFL Week 8 WTF Moments: Jameis Winston, the Bears Hail Mary, Anthony Richardson, Nick Bosa and More

    It was a crazy, and at times hilarious week in the NFL, but before Bomani Jones recaps Week 8 he begins today's episode by discussing Dwyane Wade's sculpture. Why does it look so bad and why have modern day sculpture artists gotten worse? (0:53) From there Bomani first talks about Jameis Winston and the Browns who had a big upset win over the Baltimore Ravens. Bomani says that watching Jameis is like watching Uncut Gems, while listening to him talk sounds like you're at a church. (4:15) Then Bomani covers Anthony Richardson's statements of being tired, and the insane Bears hail mary, more specially the Bears corner who let the catch happen because he was taunting the fans. (9:30) After briefly talking about Trevon Diggs' comments to a reporter, Bomani transitions to Nick Bosa who made headlines for wearing a MAGA hat after the conclusion of last nights game. Bomani listens to Bosa's postgame statements or lack thereof, and asks the question to Bosa, why is this important? Bomani compares Bosa's actions to what Colin Kaepernick's stand and why he suffered so much more than Nick Bosa. (22:40) And finally, we get another round of If You Haven't Heard stories and your voicemails on the crazy things you've seen at a youth sporting events.
