FOJ 49 - Bears win ugly and Shaun Alexander has too many kids
Episode 49
On this episode of FOJ, Jeff and Jason break down the Chicago Bears' ugly but earned victory over the Las Vegas Raiders. They dive into the anemic offense, the heroic defensive performance despite key injuries, Maxx Crosby's utter domination in the first half, and the game-saving blocked field goal by special teams. The guys then recap a wild Week 4 across the NFL, discussing surprising stats, dominant teams, bad beats, and Lamar Jackson's injury. Later, Jeff goes on a rant about his biggest travel pet peeves after years of flying, shares a public speaking story that went completely off the rails, and Jason reveals a massive 7-leg parlay win. They also touch on the future of the NFL in Europe, the Bears' multi-billion dollar valuation, and the shocking news about Shaun Alexander's massive family.
