Ten Takes is a production of the NFL in partnership with iHeartRadio. Ten Takes. You clicked. You're a beautiful person. Thank you so much. We're not going to waste your time. We give you ten takes every single week and ten minutes we start the clock. It blows up at the end. Let's just get to it. Start the clock. Take number one. Derrick Henry is what happens when perfect genetics meet perfect work ethic. It is a rare, rare combination of athletes that won the genetic power Ball and also work out like a fiend. It's Lebron, It's Derrick Henry, and it's maybe a few other guys. We saw it though last night. Derek Henry is thirty years old. Do you understand that in his life he has had over two thousand carries in the NFL, He's had over six hundred carries in college, and he's had over thirteen hundred in high school, where his high school stats are legendary. That means that thirty year old Derrick Henry has been tackled over four thousand times. I'm being generous too, four thousand times. He should be broken down, he should be slow. I see guys in the league right now at running back who are younger than him, have had fewer carries than him, who clearly are broken down and slow, and they still have jobs. Derrick Henry looks so fast and so spry, and it's because he is such a hard worker. It's all about his diet, it's all about his weightlifting, it's all about all of that stuff. It's so incredible. He's a Hall of Famer, and honestly think this season is the one that's going to really expert at it once he retires, Because you saw Dereck Henry going to the raveis like, I don't know, Dereck Henry is thirty years old, a lot of carries. He's gonna slow down. He's sped up. He's sped up. One of my co hosts and Good Morning Football was getting way over his skis akbar over the summer saying, let me tell you something, Dereck Henry joining Lamar is gonna be like Shack joining Kobe, and the Lakers were like a bar. That's a terrible take. If anything, maybe it might be like Shaq joining Dwayne Wade on the heat. Maybe he looks like Shack on the magic. He's so fast, so sprung. He caught a touchdown pass last night. He has been in five years. It's working. It's all there. That Derek Kunny thing was incredible. Take number two. The Bills got absolutely slacked last night. They never lose games in regular season by more than six points. They actually had the longest NFL streak ever of regular season games where they didn't lose by more than six points. They felt like they lost by sixty. I felt they like they lost by sixty. It was a terrible game. It was like one of those Jorge Masvidal mma fights that's over with a knee lift in the first two seconds. It did feel like that Derek Henry run ended the game. And he's done terrible things to the Bills over the years. He has an eighty seven yard run last night. He also has a seventy five yard run against the Bills when he was on the Titans. It's just so fun to watch if you're a Henry fan, But that was a disastrous watch if you're a Bills fan, or maybe if you're a Titans fan, that he got away. Bills are still they're not built for that. They're three best tacklers, in my opinion, are all standing on the sideline wearing sweatshirts. They can play really well against a bunch of teams, but when Alan's not going ballistic and they have to face that running game, not a good matchup for them. Take number three. I have avoided using this phrase because I'm too old and it's obnoxious. But when I turn on the Vikings, the vibes are immaculate. The vibes are immaculate. With the Vikings there, I go. I just said it. It feels terrible. I'll try not to say it again. It is fun when you watch red Zone and Scott Hansen just jumps around from game to game. There's such a contrast in the games and the teams. It's a fun way to see you go from one team that's really struggling, even if they're winning sometimes they're struggling to win, to another team or just feels effortless. When Scott Hansen goes to the Vikings games this year, it feels effortless. There's something about their body language, even their facial expressions, the sideline shots. They don't even necessarily need to be winning at the time. It could be close, it could be early and it just feels right. On contrast, you go to the Jets games, it didn't feel right. The vibes were off, and guess who plays next, The Vikings and the Jets take number four. Miserable day for the Jets. And I mean, actually literally, it was a miserable day. If you're listening to this right now, you're probably outside the New York, New Jersey area. It was ten out of ten disgusting on Sunday. It was one of the worst days I've lived through since I've been here in nine years. It wasn't just that it was wet and it wasn't necessarily raining, and it wasn't cold. It was a hot wet. It was a hot, disgusting wet and it affected the game a lot. The Broncras had to play in it too, but they were terrible, actually historically terrible offensively, and they still won the game. But I still think, listen, Rogers, they make a field goal at the end, the Jets win. We're not talking about this, We're saying, thank god they survived that weird weather, terrible, terrible, disgusting day for them. I still can't believe that's why that dumbest segment in sports media, and that's saying something is the one when the schedule comes out and someone goes up to a and there's seventeen games, they just go through predicting win loss, win loss, because nobody predicts a home loss for the Jets against the bow Knicks, Broncos. Nobody, nobody, not even Broncos fans, and yet they lost. That's why it's folly take number five. It's a difficult loss for me personally. You know why, because I'm right now, I'm in Lower Manhattan. After this, I drive the floor in Park, New Jersey for an exclusive interview with Aaron Rodgers that's been on the books for a few days. And so can you imagine me watching that Jets game yesterday and watching him get the crap kicked out of him and watching them lose to bow Knicks who had negative fifty passing yards or something. You're like, I'm gonna sit with Rogers. He's definitely gonna cancel it, and if he doesn't, he's gonna be beat up physically, tired, mentally. I don't gamble on sports, but when you have an interview set up with the star player of a team, that loses dramatically. It feels like you do. It's the closest I come to it, because now I'm going to show up and I have no idea how he's gonna go. If you don't see the interview, that means it didn't happen. I hope it does, but it's supposed to. I'm way behind as usual. Take number six Chiefs never been more fascinating for she Rice has done for the year. We think Pacheck Go's out. Kelsey is in a sarcophagus of some kind, although he was better yesterday. I want to see what happens with Mahomes when these weapons are gone. I feel bad that they're injured. Genuinely, I feel bad. Rashi Rice is playing really well, but it's really interesting to me because doesn't it seem like if you're in a dynasty. A dynasty is basically a franchise of movies, and now that they're in part three or part four, the stakes have to go up and it has to get more difficult for our hero. So this is like now John Wick has to fight five hundred guys in a nightclub, not just one hundred, and the next one it will be a thousand, and they all have dogs with them. This is what Mahomes is facing. He's got like, all right, I guess oh Kelsey and uh Kareem Hunt and Samaja and Justin Watson will get us our third super Bowl. Everybody's saying they're going to bring somebody in. Maybe they will. I actually kind of want them not to, just because they'll be really entertaining to see Mahomes still do it. This is John McLain. He's got the glass yards in his feet, and he's bleeding everywhere, and he's out of AMMO and Carl And won't talk to him anymore. And the guy from Breakfast Club is sending in the car like it's all going against them, and yet John McLain still finds a way to win. Ken Mahomes, I've never been more fascinated. Take number seven. The Bears still do exist. Their quarterback still does exist. I know, Jayden Daniels looks like the next best thing since ever. Caleb Williams had a pretty good game yesterday. That's not a good take. That's not a good take for ten takes. Not a strong take, but it's an accurate take. Here's an accurate take. You know, The Bears have the longest home win streak in the NFL. No team has won more home games in a row than the Chicago Bears going back to last season. You know, the Bears also have the same record as the Ravens, as the forty nine Ers, as the Jets, as the Cowboys, and the Eagles. Caleb's best deal right now is that he doesn't go up and down emotionally. He's got that kind of flat, almost monotone aloofness to him, and it works really well for him. After two bad games in a row, maybe three bad games in a row, really well, he played well in this game. He led four scoring drives and didn't turn the ball over. He's still alive. Although take number eight. Jade Daniels is like the best player ever. I can't believe what's happening here. I can't believe that the Washington Commanders are not in prime time so women can share this gift. Do you understand the significance of it. It's not just that he's playing well. It's not just that he is not throwing too many interceptions and the Commanders are winning. They went on sixteen straight scoring drives, sixteen drives in which they didn't turn over or punt that hadn't happened in thirty years. Thirty years goes back a long way. That means the best show on turf Rams didn't do with the twenty twenty four Commanders did that. The Randy Moss Brady Patriots didn't do it with the Jaden Daniels. With a new head coach and a new GM and the Commanders have done They're doing everything right, and the Commanders never do anything right. It's a miserable franchise. You know it, I know it, But it's an amazing team. Roger Goodell's going to bust an eye vessel flexing them into the primetime schedule. He better. People need to see them take number nine. Have we had the conversation yet about the cults are definitely better with Joe Flacco than they are with Anthony Richardson? When do we have that? How many teams would be better right now if you just drop Flacco in for their starter half of them, more than half of them? Is this going to be his deal? He is like an old cowboy sheriff Rooster Cogburn who always says, one last job, I'm going to clean up this town. And just goes from town to town, kicking ass, changing uniforms and getting awarded. It's incredible what he's doing. He looked great for the cults. Look just like you did with the Browns. Take number ten. My phone did my least favorite thing that it does over the weekend by far. I'm exercising. I'm listening to some very loud metal music. I'm listening to the Eye of My album by Tool. I think it's the best album of nineteen ninety six. I think it's the best hard rock album of the nineties. And Siri decides to get involved and pipe in and says, hey, you should probably turn down your headphones. It seems like you've been listening to loud music. Is shut up, Siri, don't tell me how to live my life. Don't tell you. You should have seen what we did back the day before you were even born, in the early nineties and the eighties, and we would have put on these headphones and turn them up to a thousand and listen to Guns N' Roses and Coolio and I'll go dev I will listen to the music. How I prefer to listen to it. Butt out, go fix some other nonsense. On my phone. That doesn't work, because this is working just fine. Don't tell me how to live my life. Seri boom. Ten minutes on the nose. We covered a lot. We got a quick entrance, so we can get you out of here and I'll have a quick exit hopefully the Aaron Rodgers interview happens. I'm looking at my phone as I'm giving you the ten Takes. They have not canceled yet, and currently it's eleven forty one am. It's supposed to happen a few hours from now. Keep you updated, follow me here, please like, follow, subscribe, do whatever you're supposed to do. It helps. It helps me do this and I love you for it. This was ten Takes. We give to you in ten minutes. See you next week. Ten Takes is a production of the NFL in partnership with iHeartRadio.
