Talkin' Football with Hank and Put

Hank and Put take pride in their predictions. And how couldn’t they? They’ve been killing it for years. But unlike most football yappers, these fellas own up to their mistakes.  The Bears will win?  Preposterous.  The Lions are the faves and proved it with their Week 1 win versus the defending champs, the Chiefs. Some in the media want to put a qualifier on their win; that is just weak-minded nons...

The NFL is back!  Hank returns for a second season of expert football analysis. This week the boys make predictions for the division winners, with some surprise picks in the NFC. Hank believes that Saquon Barkley is underpaid, and Kyler Murray isn’t. He also expresses his desire for the Cardinals to stink so they can draft Caleb Williams out of USC. Hank learns about “East Coast bias,” and believe...

The boys are back to discuss some great Week 13 games including a wild one between the Chiefs and surging Bengals. Last week's Marquee Matchup was another good one, with a surprisingly easy win by the Niners and their third-string quarterback, “Mr. Irrelevant” Brock Purdy. Purdy outplayed Tua and led the Niners to another win. The Eagles and Vikings continue to roll. In the AFC, the Bills have a c...

Hank battles through the podcast this week despite being ill. The boys are back on track with Marquee Matchup as the Bengals and Titans played a tough, very entertaining game.

There are lots of good games next week, but the Marquee Matchup is the Dolphin...

Happy Thanksgiving from Hank and Put!  The boys discuss their first (and sure to be last) dud Marquee Matchup pick.  Hank continues to be skeptical of the Eagles, as they narrowly escaped Indy with a win.  The Chiefs are clear contenders and likely the current favorites to win it all.  The Bills fall slightly in the power rankings.  The boys take a question from Luke about a radical plan to limit...

Henry’s streak of picking excellent Marquee Matchups continues as the boys break down the Bills and Vikings incredible game. The Vikings are for real. Hank has been skeptical of the Eagles all year, moving them to #2 in his AFC Power Rankings in Week 9. And guess what? The Eagles fall to the Commanders for their first loss. The NFL should call Hank for recommendations. The Packers stink. https://a...

Hank and Put open this week's episode with a discussion of last week's Marquee Matchup between the Cardinals and Saints.  Next they discuss the improbably Monday night romp had by the Chicago Bears over the New England Patriots.  Bears' coach Matt Eberflus is the undisputed Rain King, posting a 2-0 record as head coach during rainstorms (believed to be an NFL record).  The boys...

This week the boys field two excellent calls about the power rankings and their own biases. Hank issues some new power rankings. We discuss quarterbacks and compare Kyler Murray and Justin Fields.
