Nate Tice is joined by Steve Palazzolo to sort out which NFL teams are worth buying into or fading after two weeks of the season. They kick off with quick reactions to the Los Angeles Rams’ dominant 28-6 win over the New York Giants, then debate whether to buy or sell several 2-0 clubs: the Cincinnati Bengals, Las Vegas Raiders, Philadelphia Eagles, Minnesota Vikings and San Francisco 49ers.
Next, they flip the script and assess 0-2 teams to decide if it’s time to buy the dip or cut bait — covering the (temporarily un-banned) Los Angeles Chargers, Houston Texans, Indianapolis Colts and Tampa Bay Buccaneers, with a particular question mark around Baker Mayfield’s outlook. Later in the episode, Nate is joined by Giants legend Eli Manning to analyze quarterback play, reminisce about Eli’s favorite throws, and evaluate Ole Miss QB Trinidad Chambliss, among other topics.

Fan take: This matters because early-season evaluations shape trade chatter, roster moves and fantasy decisions—momentum (or panic) from Week 1–2 can snowball quickly. How analysts and former stars like Eli Manning interpret QB play and young prospects could influence scouting narratives and fan expectations for the rest of the year.
