What's Wrong (and Right) With the NFL This Season + College Football Shakeups & Early Divorces

Kirby is joined by Sam to unpack a wonky-but-hopeful start to the football season — and maybe do a little collective therapy while we're at it. Joe Burrow's turf toe has broken spirits, the Chiefs are somehow both mid and still Super Bowl favorites, and the Ravens might be the most confusing 4–5 team in football. It's giving full 2007 energy at the top of the table.

Over in college, LSU's early-season split with Brian Kelly is getting messier than Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie — complete with gaslighting, delusion, and a dash of SEC drama.

And finally, we get real about NFL seasonal depression — the heartbreak, the false hope, and the emotional toll of watching your team crumble by Week 3 (but still tuning in every Sunday anyway).

It's chaos, it's cathartic, and it's exactly how we like our football.
