Rams Upset 49ers, Rookie QB Shines & Josh Allen Dominates! NFL Week 3 Reactions with Jason & Osi

·55 min·2 clips

Tyler Conklin says, "I worked way too hard to treat this like it's luck," after a five-catch, 93-yard game.

J-Bell and OC start loose. They trade jokes about charisma, then turn that into a bigger argument about star power and who belongs in the league's top tier. Josh Allen comes up early, and the conversation treats him as both a dominant force and a measuring stick for Super Bowl talk. The hosts do not stay there long. Brian Flores becomes the center of the episode, and they use his path through Miami, Pittsburgh, and Minnesota to talk about coaching talent, opportunity, and how the league decides who gets another shot. They revisit the Steelers moving quickly to hire him after Miami. That decision opens the door to the Rooney Rule and the way minority candidates are put in front of owners through mandated interviews. The point stays practical. Minnesota's defense gets strong praise, and the hosts connect that success to Flores's influence and to the broader value of a coach who can build a unit that slows explosive offenses. Seattle gets pulled into the picture as another example of a team winning through defense and strong coaching, and they note that the team is undefeated. The banter keeps the pace moving. A gripe about an Instagram clip, some mock outrage, and a few side jokes break up the football talk without taking over the show. Even so, the episode keeps returning to one central idea. Modern offenses are explosive, so teams need more than slogans and optimism to keep up. The final stretch looks toward Tampa Bay and the Bucs' next test. Baker Mayfield gets framed as the quarterback who may need to hit some big throws if the defensive front does its job. The hosts stay in that familiar zone between broadcast booth and locker-room argument. They explain the game, tease each other, and then circle back to the football point. The result is a conversation that feels fast and lived-in. It has opinions, jokes, and a clear defensive throughline. The episode closes on the same note it starts with: loud, informed, and comfortable arguing the game in real time.
