This episode is going to make people uncomfortable — and that’s the point. Michigan didn’t just fire Sherrone Moore… they detonated their entire program in public. From the investigation, the jail incident, and the fallout across the athletic department, this situation raises one brutal question: how did Michigan let this happen — and who’s really responsible?

Indiana QB Fernando Mendoza went undefeated and won — but did college football actually get this right, or did the system overcorrect and hand out the award to “feel good” history? You’re not going to agree with this take. In the NFL, everything flipped in one weekend. Patrick Mahomes’ ACL injury didn’t just end the Chiefs’ season — it exposed them. Are we finally allowed to say Kansas City hasn’t been the same team all year? And while everyone’s defending the Eagles, we ask the question nobody in Philly wants asked: are they lying to themselves about Jalen Hurts? We’ve seen this collapse before — and it didn’t end well. We also don’t dance around: • Joe Burrow’s comments and why they sound like someone halfway out the door • Whether Trevor Lawrence is actually becoming elite or just hot at the right time • Why Bo Nix is still being disrespected despite winning • If the Bears are legit… or one more fraud story waiting to happen • The Colts signing 44-year-old Philip Rivers and why it’s embarrassing • Coaches melting down, dynasties cracking, and media narratives falling apart If you want safe takes, this isn’t your show. If you want real opinions, hit play and argue in the comments. Who’s wrong here — Michigan, the media, the voters, or us? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
