Football America is a show about stories that matter—discussed by people who don’t. Why? Because this beautiful game deserves all of the spotlight. Football raised us. We obsess over it. We fight about it. We name our dogs after retired players, then name our children after those dogs. We talk football the way Sinatra sang songs: with conviction. And drunk. Each week, Dave Dameshek’s embarrassing habit of assigning meaning to frivolous stats is on full display as he is joined by a host of celebrities, players, and well-meaning people who play experts on television. Hilarity ensues. Debate follows. It’s a love letter to football written in spicy mustard. Football America! is synonymous (see what we did there?). This isn’t just a sport. It's our national identity… but it’s also a sport.

Top NFL Games of Week 12 with Conor Orr, Drip Drill with Mike Ryan Ruiz on the AFC East, And Why Miami is Better Than Notre Dame
Wondering which NFL games are the most consequential in Week 12? Well, so did we. So with the help of the amazing Conor Orr of Sports Illustrated we created a Top Five list. (He also weighs in on the Ja'Marr Chase spit debate. TLDR: Dad of newborns don't flinch.) We also have Mike Ryan Ruiz join in to provide insight into the uniforms of the AFC East. It's a division that's lost its way. There's some Shadeur Sander chat, too. But the spiciest debate happens when we decide who is best Transformer. (Soup says Grimlock. But do The Dinobots count?) This episode of Football America! with Dave Dameshek and the gang is not one to miss. Settle in as they act as a free tour guide for your weekend plans, Football Americans.
