On today’s episode, Jason discusses why it's clear that the 2-4 Los Angeles Rams are the most disappointing team in the NFL so far this season... and why you still shouldn't count them out of the NFC playoff race, why he's betting on the Kansas City Chiefs to beat the Seattle Seahawks in their upcoming showdown in Week 7, why the Chicago Bears' win over Atlanta said just as much about the playcalling of Ben Johnson as it did about Caleb Williams' return to action, and whether ugly losses by the Indianapolis Colts and the Dallas Cowboys could lead to a few coaches getting fired.
