Cowboys at Eagles tonight on MNF.
@DamienWoody on Dallas: "Some people would say Brian Schottenheimer was like the sixth person on the list… a guy that Jerry Jones could control."
With the NFC East this wide open, he can't explain 2-4.
Cowboys fans, is he wrong? 👇
"You may not be out on the Rams, but I am."
@DamienWoody says the 2-4 Rams have lost their identity. They're throwing it way too much with Stafford and not playing the bully ball that made Sean McVay's teams work.
Rams at Raiders, Sunday 4:25.
Detroit's secondary has been an issue all season. Jordan Love is playing some of the best football of his career.
@DamienWoody thinks that's a problem for the Lions on Sunday: "Those guys can burn you over the top."
Lions fans, you worried? 👇
The Texans are 2-4 and still 10-point favorites. @DamienWoody gets it:
"CJ Stroud is playing like an NFL MVP at quarterback… he is completely dialed in."
His read on the line: "That's Vegas telling you what they think about the Houston Texans right now."
Chiefs at Seahawks tonight on SNF. Kenneth Walker's revenge game.
@DamienWoody: "You can make the case he's the MVP of the league right now."
Walker gave Kansas City a run-first identity, and Seattle hasn't had a ground game since he left.
"Give me home game, 1 p.m., lock me in."
Steelers-Saints kick off in Paris Sunday morning, and @DamienWoody wants no part of the NFL's international push. He gets that it's about the money. He still wants football "right here on American soil at 1 PM."
Preseason, Dallas was supposed to have the most explosive offense in the NFC. Now they're 2-4.
@DamienWoody: "The Dallas Cowboys are a major, major disappointment."
He says there's blame to go around, from Pickens looking disinterested to CeeDee not playing like CeeDee.
As a former lineman @damienwoody has no patience for the Jets' short-yardage struggles:
"I'm not gonna be denied by one yard. I'm sorry. I'm just not gonna do that."
He wants better design from the coaches and a better mentality from the players.
Dolphins at Jets, Sunday 1 pm
Brock Purdy is running the show in San Francisco now.
@damienwoody says Purdy's pre- and post-snap processing is "second to none" and that he "has a PhD in Kyle Shanahan."
Niners at Falcons Sunday. Still think he's a system QB? 👇
Patriots at Bears tonight on TNF.
AJ Brown had a game to forget last week. @damienwoody played with Mike Vrabel, and he expects New England to get Brown the ball on the first drive:
"Just let him know, you're still our alpha. You're our number one guy."
12 years in the league taught @damienwoody that players will always want to play through it. That's why he says it's on the team to step in:
"Sometimes the organization gotta save a player from himself."
He also didn't like seeing Nick Sirianni sent out to answer for it.
Charles Barkley on Jimmy Butler's media day look:
"That dude had like $5 million worth of earrings on yesterday."
Chuck has concerns.
Charles Barkley: "The East is better than the West now."
And Luka Doncic is under a lot of pressure this season with the Lakers: "He got to play well. He got to stay healthy. Got to get in shape."
Charles Barkley on playing Augusta National with Peyton Manning, Dwyane Wade and Grant Hill:
"If I had died the next day, I would have been good with it."
Who's in your dream Augusta foursome? 👇
Charles Barkley on the best crowds in the NBA:
"Those are the two best environments in the NBA… they're like a college town."
OKC and San Antonio. Discuss...
Charles Barkley on Michael Jordan's NBC "return":
"Michael's been wearing the same outfit all season… they sold a bill of goods."
Charles Barkley seeing Reggie White for the first time:
"Who's that little short fat guy over there?"
Chuck couldn't believe his eyes at Eagles practice: "When you put them around NBA players, we're so much bigger than they are."
The substation has taken out half the 49ers roster. Brock Purdy is still standing.
Charles Barkley: "Y'all better start taking him serious."
Is Brock Purdy the most underrated player in the NFL?
Charles Barkley on SEC vs. NFL tailgates:
"These people have no life"
Chuck says in SEC towns, college football isn't a Saturday thing, it's a way of life. 100,000 in the stadium and another 10–15,000 who show up just to tailgate.
"There's no better tailgates than the South."
