We kick off Football Fancave (02:04) with game recaps: discussing some scary blowouts and upsets in the NFL. Starting off with the Jets knocking off the red hot Bengals, the Colts and the Titans mistake ridden nail biter, the Detroit Lions having their biggest loss in their most winnable game, and the Steelers getting it done over the Browns.

In Combat Corner (09:07) Max talks Khamzat Chimaev's latest statement win and makes the case for title shot ASAP. Islam Makachev needs no such case made but Max makes it anyway after the 1st round finish of Hooker. He also talks Yans dominance and names him best Bantamweight in the world (duh) and laments one wrong move ends the fight nature of MMA after the main event.

In BBall Storylines (18:00) Max kicks off the talk with the elite level of basketball the Miami Heat are playing 6 games into the season. Owen discusses the 3 game win streak of the Toronto Raptors, and gives some praise to Evan Mobley's early showing of himself this season.

We wrap up with Talkin' Hockey (33:52) checking in on the last few undefeated teams in the league. Before getting into our usual Toronto Maple Leafs segment who extended Morgan Reilly and picked up a win over the Red Wings this weekend.
