The Indianapolis Colts have BENCHED their second-year quarterback Anthony Richardson and will start Joe Flacco going forward. Tyler thinks this is a massive mistakes, but Luke thinks this was a necessary change for the rest of the organization. Next, the Baltimore Ravens made a trade to acquire Diontae Johnson, but it doesn't seem like a move that will move the needles for the Ravens. On the flip side, the Houston Texans lost star receiver Stefon Diggs to an ACL tear and it truly hurts the Texans chances of being the Super Bowl team everyone expected them to be. Finally, there are a few teams like the New Orleans Saints and New York Jets who we need to STOP TALKING ABOUT, but they aren't the only teams. Tyler and Luke meet at the haterade cooler to discuss.

The Jacksonville Jaguars, New Orleans Saints and New York Giants are the talk of the NFL after more devastating losses in NFL Week 8. But Mike McDaniel and the Miami Dolphins aren't getting away from the focus either.

The Cincinnati Bengals and Dallas Cowboys are among the most disappoint teams going into NFL Week 9 and the Atlanta Falcons shouldn't be trusted even if they do make it to the postseason.

The Pittsburgh Steelers moved to 6-2 on the season after defeating the New York Giants on Monday Night Football. The Steelers will be a playoff team, but they cannot be trusted once they get there. The New York Giants are a flailing team that needs to change the head coach and the quarterback. The Kansas City Chiefs have not played their best yet they remain undefeated. Don't make the mistake of acting like they have a worse chance of winning the Super Bowl this season. The Chiefs made another trade, this time with the New England Patriots for edge rusher Josh Uche. These are two teams going opposite directions. Finally, the Arizona Cardinals are a super wild card in the NFC and the Buffalo Bills are more reliable than the Baltimore Ravens.
