Merril says nobody wins in this league consistently by running around, and that Caleb has learned to play in structure and execute the play, using his mobility only when the defense forces him to. Stink says Caleb has been arguably the best quarterback in football over the last three weeks, and credits Ben Johnson for sticking with the run. Woody says the Jeffery Simmons trade shows the Bears believe they're ready to win now. Also in this breakout: • The Tom Brady lesson: take the flat 100 out of 100 times • Ben Johnson is learning when to take the points • Why the Jeffery Simmons trade changes Chicago's defense • How high is the Bears' Kalshi: https://kalshi.com/R/OGFB Disclaimer: 18+ only.

    The Cowboys Have to Blow It Up, Starting With George Pickens

    It's time for the Cowboys to tear it down, and Trey Wingo and Mark Schlereth say it starts with getting something for George Pickens before the trade deadline.

Trey says Dallas went all in on this year, and with Pickens on a one-year deal, the Cowboys need to get something for him now and take it down to the studs. Stink says he's seen Pickens make the spectacular play and then disconnect on the routes and blocks that don't make the highlight reel. And as long as Jerry Jones has the final say on all things football, Stink says, no head coach in Dallas, Brian Schottenheimer included, will ever be truly empowered. Also in this episode: • Jerry Jones' vote of confidence in Brian Schottenheimer • The two red-zone mistakes Stink found on the coaches' tape • Cowboys fans who have stopped planning their Sundays around the team • What Joe Gibbs, Mike Shanahan and Bill Parcells had that Dallas coaches don't • Why the Cowboys are the only NFC team without a conference title game since their last Super Bowl win Subscribe to The OG Football Show: https://www.youtube.com/@TheOGFootballShow?sub_confirmation=1 Kalshi: https://kalshi.com/R/OGFB Disclaimer: 18+ only.

    The Rams Are About to Go on a Run

    The Los Angeles Rams just rediscovered their identity, and Mark Schlereth believes they're about to go on a run. On The OG Football Show, Trey Wingo, Mark Schlereth, Merril Hoge and Damien Woody break down how Sean McVay returned to a physical, smash-mouth running game in the Rams' 35-21 win over the Las Vegas Raiders and why that formula could get Los Angeles back into the NFC West race.

Schlereth explains why McVay has always been a run-first coach disguised as a spread-offense mastermind, while Woody argues that committing to the ground game is exactly what Los Angeles needs with injuries piling up. The guys also break down how the running game opened up three touchdown passes for Matthew Stafford and helped neutralize Maxx Crosby and the Raiders' pass rush. Merril explains why he believes McVay has made a permanent change to the Rams' offensive approach rather than a one-game adjustment. The guys also debate whether the performance says more about Los Angeles or Las Vegas, how the running game can help an injury-depleted defense, and why the uncertainty surrounding Myles Garrett's return could have major implications for the Rams. Plus, a look at Los Angeles' upcoming schedule and whether the Rams can build enough momentum to make a serious run in the NFC West. Kalshi: https://kalshi.com/R/OGFB Disclaimer: 18+ only.

    Jared Goff Belongs in the MVP Conversation

    Jared Goff belongs in the NFL MVP conversation, and Mark Schlereth has been saying he's a top-five quarterback for years.

No other quarterback has more than 10. Schlereth breaks down Goff's elite accuracy and a remarkable throw to Sam LaPorta against Green Bay, while Woody explains why Goff's ability to process defenses makes him one of the toughest quarterbacks to pressure. Merril explains how Goff's reputation from his time with the Rams continues to follow him, even as his game has improved in Detroit. The guys also discuss whether having Amon-Ra St. Brown, Jameson Williams and Jahmyr Gibbs works against Goff in the MVP debate, how he compares to Caleb Williams and the rest of the NFC North, and why the upcoming matchup with Brian Flores and the Minnesota Vikings could finally change the conversation.

Javonte Williams had a career-high 155 yards, the most by a Cowboy since Ezekiel Elliott, and Dak Prescott threw three touchdowns with no interceptions. Stink explains what finally changed for the offensive line. Woody says the key is the attempts, not the yards. Merril says it’s about controlling the tempo, and that the Cowboys defense gets better the less it plays. The guys also debate how much of it was the Eagles, whether the Dallas defense can build on it, and why the next stretch of the schedule is where the Cowboys have to stack wins. Plus Stink on why Mike Shanahan would have been offended by a two-high safety look, and Merril’s warning about the Giants. Kalshi: https://kalshi.com/R/OGFB Disclaimer: 18+ only.

Seattle took away Kenneth Walker, and Kansas City had no receiver that scared them. Stink explains why Nick Emmanwori is one of the most versatile players in football, lining up at nickel, corner, safety, linebacker and on the edge from series to series, and why that makes this defense so hard to identify. Trey and Stink also get into Sam Darnold’s interceptions, why Jaxon Smith-Njigba is the best receiver in the business right now, and how Seattle’s schedule sets up the race with the 49ers and Rams. Plus Stink’s story of the night the 1997 Broncos walked into a buzzsaw in San Francisco. The complete OG Football Show drops Tuesday with the whole crew.
