Ep. 184 - Texans Cook, Ravens Crumble | NFL Week 5 Recap

The Bleacher Bums are back with a spicy Week 5 recap, and this one’s full of chaos. The Rams shot themselves in the foot while Mac Jones suddenly looks like the future in San Francisco. Meanwhile, Cleveland’s got us scratching our heads: they traded Joe Flacco to the Bengals… but what exactly is their plan?

We dive into whether J.J. McCarthy is actually healthy, if the Ravens are officially in panic mode, and whether the Texans are really back or we’re just overreacting. The Colts look legit, Geno Smith might be running out of time, and the Jets are still hunting for that elusive first win.

Connor’s not buying what the Eagles are selling after another shaky outing from Jalen Hurts, while the Broncos clawed their way to a gutsy comeback win. The Titans finally get in the win column, the Cardinals completely collapse, and Kyler Murray’s future looks grim.

Baker Mayfield for MVP? Sam Darnold is turning into Kirk Cousins 2.0? The Chargers’ vibes are off, Omarion Hampton’s injured, and the Patriots pull off a huge upset while the Bills once again lose to a random team.

We close things out with Shot Takes, rapid-fire reactions, hot takes, and zero filter.
