  • Good but…

    …too much click-bait-like hyperbole. Mainly from Wilbon. Some of his takes are either crazy or, more likely, purposely outrageous to attract attention. It’s disingenuous and tiresome. You should be better than that at this point in your career.

  • Great show, terrible technology

    Love PTI so much - Tony and Mike's banter about and historical perspective of sports can't be beat.

    You know what can be beat? The technology and people behind the technology of uploading podcasts. The sound quality is terrible (often so quiet followed by the loudest ads), they take forever to upload episodes and they often upload incorrect episodes to the feed. It's kinda crazy.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Biggest headline from NFL Week 8?
Q: So Tony, what does this mean for the Raven season, and also Lamar Jackson's future personally?
Kornheiser says Jackson's absence is damaging to Baltimore and raises uncertainty about his long-term fit, given his recent missed games, contract situation, the defense's struggles, and Derrick Henry's declining production.
Biggest headline from NFL Week 8?
Q: What is the biggest headline?
Pablo Torre chooses Tampa Bay's strange win over Atlanta, noting Baker Mayfield completed no passes and still had a higher passer rating than Falcons quarterback Michael Penix Jr.
Are the Bears the BEST TEAM in the NFL?
Q: Tell me what you saw from Jeffrey Simmons last night.
Jeff Saturday describes Simmons as a dominant interior defensive lineman who created chaos, recorded a sack and six tackles, and helped Chicago's defense generate pressure without blitzing.
The First CFP Rankings are Here!
Q: How aware were you that you were mic'd up? How much were you performing for the microphone?
Young says players are very aware of microphones and that he enjoyed playing to NFL Films' cameras, finding the experience fun rather than distracting.
Are the Bears the BEST TEAM in the NFL?
Q: What does this performance say about the Bears, where they stand in their division, the NFC and in the league?
Frank Isola says the Bears look capable of reaching and winning a Super Bowl, citing their improving defense, strong coaching and Caleb Williams's play on important drives, but says he cannot yet call them the best team in their division.
