Hoop and Huddle with Luke Touma & Nate Marshall

NFL Week 2 is here and the Hoop and Huddle guys are locking in picks, bets and bad takes. Luke Touma and Nate Marshall break down Monday Night Football: the Chiefs looking like the Chiefs again, Kenneth Walker III going nuclear, a loaded KC rookie class (Mansoor Delane, R. Mason Thomas, Peter Woods) and whether Bo Nix and the Broncos are already cooked. Is Patrick Mahomes actually washed, or is that the dumbest take in sports? Then it's a full NFL Week 2 preview: Bills vs Lions on Thursday Night Football (over/under 53.5, Josh Allen vs Jahmyr Gibbs, Buffalo's new stadium debut), Eagles vs Titans and the Cam Ward question, Bears vs Vikings with Ben Johnson going head to head with Brian Flores, Raiders vs Chargers, Seahawks vs Cardinals with Sam Darnold out and Jacoby Brissett stepping in, and Giants vs Rams on MNF. Plus: the four players under the most pressure in Week 2: Drake Maye, Justin Herbert, Jordan Love, Baker Mayfield, the worst betting lines of the week, Deshaun Watson somehow starting again in Cleveland, and a friendly wager where the loser chugs a beer at 10am next Monday. New episodes twice a week. Subscribe for NFL picks, betting takes and sports talk that isn't boring. Try not to lose your Bills gun at the bar.

Welcome to Episode 2 of Hoop and Huddle, the comedy sports podcast hosted by Luke Touma and Nate Marshall, produced by YMH Studios. Thursday Night Football: the 49ers destroy the Rams 27-7, the Australia travel plan backfires, Stafford looks washed, and Myles Garrett goes 0 sacks, 0 tackles, 0 pressures before landing on IR with knee surgery. Is the Rams hype train dead? Meanwhile the Niners defense looks elite with Fred Warner and Nick Bosa healthy. Texas vs Ohio State: Arch Manning starts shaky, Jeremiah Smith dices up the Texas defense, then Texas erases a 23-3 hole with 21 unanswered fourth quarter points to win 24-23 and take the No. 1 ranking. Plus the Tanner Take: Texas sucks. NFL Week 1 Sunday: Josh Allen goes nuclear (357 total yards, 4 TDs) in an 8-lead-change Bills win while CJ Stroud beats the fraud allegations. The Bears hang 59 on the Panthers with 4 Caleb Williams touchdowns, but Bryce Young balls out too. The Ravens drop 41 on the Colts with prime Lamar and Derrick Henry the vampire (144 yards, 3 TDs). The Lions beat the Saints in OT after a failed 2-point try, Tyler Shough is the truth, and the entire NFC South is 0-1. Trevor Lawrence throws 4 TDs as the Jags beat the Browns, so why is Deshaun Watson still starting? The Eagles beat the Commanders 24-22 after Stefon Diggs' goalpost celebration penalty, a Hurts first down on 3rd and 18, a Goedert 42-yard TD, and a stuffed shovel-pass 2-point conversion. Jacoby Brissett and the Cardinals derail the annual Chargers hype train 26-14. Kyler Murray throws a pick on the first play and gets knocked out, then Carson Wentz and a 22-point fourth quarter lift the Vikings over the Packers 39-22 (shoutout Brian Flores) as Jordan Love nears Herbert territory. And the Giants beat the Cowboys 28-20 on Sunday Night Football: Jaxson Dart is the real deal, the media wants Dallas to be good so badly, and the Jets and Giants both win openers for the first time since 2009. Also: future live episode at Chili's? We wrap with the Way Too Early MVP Race: Josh Allen, Lamar Jackson, Caleb Williams, Trevor Lawrence, Jaxson Dart, and their odds. New episodes every week.

Welcome to Hoop and Huddle, the all-new comedy sports podcast hosted by Luke Touma and Nate Marshall, produced here at YMH Studios. Episode 1 opens with the NFL Season Opener, and it went off the rails fast. Sam Darnold went down on the fifth play, AJ Brown is out with an ankle injury, Romeo Doubs stunk, and Drake "The Schedule" Maye threw for 178 yards and three picks, including the one that lost the game. Luke and Nate break down the Seahawks defense swarming the Patriots, JSN's deep touchdown to tie it at 10, Maye going 3-for-9 with three interceptions on throws over 10 yards, an elite Pats hate watch, and the Drew Lock legacy game. Then it's Thursday Night Football in Australia. 49ers vs Rams down under raises the real questions: why is the NFL playing in Australia, why did the Niners spend a week there while the Rams did 24 hours, and which player is most likely to end up in an Aussie jail (it's Puka). Plus Aaron Donald sitting out Week 1, Niners injuries, and whether the Rams live up to the hype. WAGER OF THE WEEK: Who covers their spread by more, the Bills or the Eagles? Loser gets their face painted up next time. NFL Week 1 Preview: Bills offense vs Texans defense, the new-look Eagles without AJ Brown or Kevin Patullo, Cowboys vs Giants on Sunday Night Football, Broncos vs Chiefs and whether Patrick Mahomes looks healthy, old married Travis Kelce, the Chiefs' 2026 outlook, a stacked AFC West, the 2027 No. 1 pick battles (Jets vs Titans, Dolphins vs Raiders), and Packers vs Vikings with Kyler Murray facing a Packers defense without Micah Parsons. We close with NFL players on Antarctica: Dre Greenlaw thinks it might be a lie, and DK Metcalf says there's a secret society buried under it. Also, Jaylen Brown is boxing in Nigeria.
