Half-baked takes for the 2026 season

Sobre este episódio

<p>Here’s a simple recipe for baking a take: 1. Have a thought or feeling. 2. Look up facts, stats, etc to support or disprove that thought or feeling. 3. Ponder the scope of the thought or feeling (a day, a season, a decade). 4. Mix in some outside opinions. 5. Enjoy your take. For this episode, we’re stopping about halfway through step two. Robert Mays, Derrik Klassen, and Dave Helman share their half-baked takes for the 2026 season.</p><br><p>0:00 Welcome to the show</p><p>2:52 Coby Bryant injury</p><p>7:10 Baltimore Ravens &amp; Maxx Crosby/Trey Hendrickson</p><p>13:56 DaVonta Smith</p><p>19:31 San Francisco 49ers &amp; Ricky Pearsall</p><p>27:55 Washington Commanders &amp; Jayden Daniels</p><p>31:29 Mike McDaniel</p><p>34:12 Houston Texans</p><p>42:17 Field goals</p><p>47:47 Los Angeles Rams</p><p>54:10 Natural grass fields</p><p>57:46 Picking playoff teams</p><p>1:03:17 New Orleans Saints</p><p>1:06:21 Dak Prescott</p><br><p>Join The Athletic Football Show Discord Server: http://discord.gg/theathleticfootballshow</p><br><p>Host: Robert Mays</p><p>Co-Hosts: Derrik Klassen and Dave Helman</p><p>Executive Producer: Michael Beller</p><p>Senior Producer: Katy Duffy</p><p>Social Producer: Scott Krinch</p><br><p>Follow Robert on Bluesky: @robertmays.bsky.social</p><p>Follow Derrik on Bluesky: @qbklass.bsky.social</p><p>Follow Dave on Bluesky: @davehelman.bsky.social</p><p>Follow Robert on X: @RobertMays</p><p>Follow Dave on X: @DaveHelman_</p><br><p>Theme song: Haunted</p><p>Written by Dylan Slocum, Trevor Dietrich, Ruben Duarte, Kyle McAulay, and Meredith VanWoert / Performed by Spanish Love Songs</p><p>Courtesy of Pure Noise / By arrangement with Bank Robber Music, LLC</p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
