Finally, the preseason is over and Week 1 is here. The guys could not be more excited about the season kicking off. The guys talk some NFL News as Darrelle Revis and the New York Jets agree to terms, TJ Houshmandzadeh signs with Baltimore and Matt Leinart lands in Houston. The guys also report on a contract offer the Patriots have made to Tom Brady and reports that Reggie Bush will be stripped of his Heisman Trophy.
Steven and Jeff then discuss all 16 Week 1 games and make their picks. The guys only differ on two games so once again, the Challenge Game starts up again. Steven likes the Cardinals while Jeff once again takes the Rams.
Plus the guys reveal their news plans to join Sky Sports News Radio on Fridays to talk NFL action.

Those Madden simulated games are horrible. Bills, Bengals, Raiders, Rams and Chiefs winning Week 1 are CRAZY. Maybe I can see the Bengals winning, but that’s about it.
@Steven I know man, You never know though. WOuld would of though Broncos would go 6-0 and end up 8-8 :P
*who
Damn early mornings! Edit button please Steven :)
The Madden picks are a bit crazy…..The Pats have been the best team on Madden…like forever! I cant believe they would loose on Maddden! let alone real life….. I recon winners will be: Saints, Jags, Titans, Pats, Browns, Colts, Bears, Steelers, Fins, Giants, Packers, SF, Boys, Ravens, Chargers
and the Cards and Rams will draw 0-0….because they are both awful…and nobody will turn up/tune in to watch them anyways!
…your on about placing a bet………just walk into a Ladbrooks shop (there are loads around Wembley) or stalls in the ground….it takes like 2 minutes and you can bet on pretty much anything (sensible) to do with the game!
I just download from iTunes. It sounds like the show was recorded out of order. One minutes they are talking about TJ to the Ravens and then it cuts to the USC story and then back to TJ. Anyone else having this problem?
Oops. Nevermind, it is happening on some of my other podcasts. Problem must be on my end.
im still having trouble getting rid of the last episode of my iphone i cant access it to delete it everytime i click on it it goes back to my home screen ! thus meaning i cant hear the new show either ! HELP
Ross, I had the same problem and so listened to it on iTunes. When I deleted it from iTunes and synced my phone (i.e. deleted it from iphone via itunes) it all started working again.
Still having the iPhone issues as per the last episode (and I assume that others are too).
One solution I have found is to download the podcast direct onto the iPhone (i.e. via the iTunes app) and play it from there. For some reason this works but the synced podcast still just results in everything just returning to the home screen.
um… Jeff: on the Dan Patrick show the percentage was in favor of Reggie Bush not Matt Leinart. So Steven you are not crazy.
I agree with Steven on the whole Heisman / Reggie Bush story. It is a big pile of something smelly. USC and I’m sure most other big time college programmes know exactly that this sort of thing is going on. If Reggie had signed with the agent in question none of this would have come out. As for vacating past achievements only the NCAA (and perhaps the North Koreans) are so good at erasing whole chunks of history.
Steven, Chiefs won… okay it was 1 out of 5 but still lol
