Description

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.

Crazy to think we're already 11 Weeks into the NFL season. It's gone so fast. And now, the pressure builds for every game. (Unless you're Cleveland). That's why we have former NFL Defensive Lineman Gerald McCoy joining the show to give his picks for the Top Five NFL Games of Week 11. Then our podcast friend Jessica Smetana drops in to chat Notre Dame football ahead of the big game against Pitt. Dave Dameshek and the gang got a huge episode ahead to help you make sense of the weekend on this episode of Football America! (Photo by Nam Y. Huh/AP) Timestamps: (00:00) Too Much to Talk About.

What a week! So many takes being took right now. Think about it: If not for the Browns, the 2 worst teams in football would reside in New York. And if not for a Jackson Dart concussion, Brian Daboll would still be the head coach of the Giants. Sean McDermott is wasting Josh Allen’s prime. Epidurals should be considered PEDs. (Matt Stafford couldn't move in preseason. Now he's having the best year of his career.) If the Patriots win the AFC East, Drake Maye has to be the MVP. Meanwhile, let's keep the Sam Darnold MVP take and add onto it the Seattle Seahawks Super Bowl Favorite takes! We vet all these thoughts with Jonathan Zaslow. Then former NFL lineman Geoff Schwartz tells us why it's so hard to bet on NFL games.

NFL Week 8 is in the books. And I think we can all agree that it's a crime the Denver Broncos only bust out the Orange Crush Uniforms three times a season. They pop. The Steelers throwbacks?

Here are some takes: 1. Weird as it sounds to say about the reigning Super Bowl MVP, Jalen Hurts is officially holding the Eagles back. 2.

Well, there has been plenty of fallout across Football America! when it comes to kicking. So I invited Jordan Schultz to join Football America! to discuss who got the boot and who stood firm. Schultz is a true journalist to his core. He's the co-host of the new podcast Why Is Draymond Green Talking About Football with Jordan Schultz. He lends his reportorial acumen to FA! by explaining how the 49ers will deal with injury woes, and then shares inside knowledge on what it will take to replace the Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel. And then he lets us know about the food that best represents his hometown of Seattle. That's something I care about deeply. Actually, I think we all do. Anywho, the Super Fuentes Bros with their pal Ethan in Miami help me make my fantasy and game picks of the week. Newsman Bradley is in New York with the latest news. Then my mom, the great Mo Dameshek joins us to talk Joe Burrow! Really. Truly, don't miss this one. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
Football Americans! We’ve so much to get to this episode: Lamar v Allen! The long kicks! Jalen Carter’s spit! The sad, sad Dolphins. And we've got the right father and son duo to tell you all about it with Greg and Chris Cote from the Dan LeBatard show. Plus, we've bring in Geoff Schwartz to explain why he fell asleep and missed what could be the best game of the season. The Super Fuentes Brothers provide knee jerk reactions to Week One from Miami, and Newsman Bradley presents Aaron Rodgers unfiltered from New York. Hyperbolic, sure. Satisfying? Of course. Football is back, America, and here to cover it is Football America! **That said. Before you hit play we gotta protect our guy, Pittsburgh Hero Ryan Clark. A lot of people out there chose to get up on Mount Pious about Clark saying Tom Brady and Drew Brees weren’t generational talents. They aren’t. Neither guy was a measurable physical freak. Y’see the NFL’s got two basic types of QBs. 1. Specimens like Josh Allen, Andrew Luck, Cam Newton, even Jeff George. These guys can evolve into gunslingers like John Elway, Brett Favre and Ben Roethlisberger and take you to the top of Mount Lombardi. 2. Assassins like Tom Brady, Peyton Manning, Drew Brees, and Joe Montana. They’ve been marginalized with the name ‘game manager’ but they’re calculated and lethally accurate. Big game trophy hunters. That's why I call 'em ASSASSINS. In superhero terms, it’s like Superman v Batman. You'd of course like the measurables of the son of Jor-el over Bruce Wayne, but that doesn’t mean Batman can’t win thanks to being more clever. So, descend Mount Pious and just admit Brady and Brees are the Keaton and Bale Batmans (batmen?) of the NFL. And be good with it. As for serial killers, well... Mike Tomlin can go ahead explain that one. We're stumped. Now, start the show! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
