Chapter 1: What are the key highlights from the NFL schedule release?
The schedule came out yesterday, and I had to go through the Jets' schedule and go, oh, week one, Pittsburgh. That's a win. Oh, you gave him a win there, huh? No, I didn't, but I was just doing my thing.
Well, it could be a double revenge game if Aaron finally signs there. He will.
That's a good point, right? He will. Someone will exact their revenge, meaning if it's Aaron versus Justin Fields, someone's going to have a day where they exact some sort of revenge on the other team.
Yeah, revenge will be exacted. By the way, guys, God bless football is presented by DraftKings. DraftKings, the crown is yours.
Yep. Mikey, where'd you have the Jets in terms of record?
Six and 11. Really? That good, huh? Six and 11. I had to stretch for it. Wow. I had to stretch for it, but I got one. Billy, what did you make of the Dolphins schedule?
Did you even look at the Dolphins schedule?
So I have, and I have a game. I have a couple games that I want to play with you guys today if you would like to indulge me here on Gobbler's Football. So we have, here's a headline, which we're going to get to soon, but we have some new games that we want to debut today. We have a new game called That's a Game, which we'll explain when we get to that. Here's a headline. We have more Mike Lee.
We may have blind rankings today, uncertain. And I have Stugatz in front of me, something that I'm just going to tease the back of real quick. There you go. That was it. It's very exciting. It's hot off the presses. It's something that we haven't really featured on Godless Football before. And I think that it's going to be the star of That's a Game.

Chapter 2: What is Derrick Henry's new contract and its impact on the RB position?
That's a good question. I feel like it is slowly coming back. Maybe defense has caught up with the offenses and we're shifting back to the running game now, but Mikey, it does feel like the running game is kind of back, I guess.
Maybe the ones that weren't getting paid really weren't worth it. Oh, wow. I mean, you can make an argument.
Maybe. You can make an argument. Saquon Barkley, Derrick Henry, both those guys, they were in the conversation for MVP last year. It's been a while since we've had two running backs be in that kind of conversation, the MVP conversation.
I think the interesting thing, though, that you mentioned, Ashton Gentry is, you know, a now top two, three guaranteed money running back in the NFL before even taking a snap. So... He, I think, might be a test case for this, right? Because if that pick hits, it's going to be interesting to see how you handle running backs in the NFL draft moving forward.
Also, though, obviously, he had a year that no one has had before in college. So he earned being picked there. But with the way money is and the running back position, it'll be interesting to see in the coming years if we now start paying running backs again and if we start taking them so highly in the draft.
It's interesting because Mel Kiper was on with us and he still swears by his theory that he put out there many, many years ago. Don't take a running back in the first round. Never take a running back in the first round.
Take Shador in the first round.
Take Shador Sanders. No, not in the first round. Number one overall.
Yeah. And number two, if you can. Yeah. But to Mel's point. Have you checked on Mel, by the way, Mikey? Like, have we checked on your friend Mel? Because he was, man, I felt for Mel, and he was going through with that weekend. And then people were coming after him. And then, honestly, I saw you then caping up for Mel and fighting people off on Twitter left and right.

Chapter 3: Who would the hosts go to war for and what's the story with Mel Kiper's boat?
What a cop-out answer.
If Billy says something on Twitter and people start attacking Billy, you're not jumping in the way I did for Mel Kiper.
If Billy says take Shador Sanders number one overall and people start going after Billy, I will defend Billy. Yes, I will.
I don't think you know your Twitter password.
I don't think you do. Yeah, no. I don't know my Twitter password.
Taylor's enjoying being me. Yeah, I've noticed that. I've noticed that.
I think that Sugatsu would go to war for the Goliks.
I'm going to tell you who I'd go to war for.
I would go to war for the Gullocks. Yeah. But I would go to war for Greg Cody. That's who I would go to war for.

Chapter 4: What is the status of Stugotz's potential return to Around the Horn?
He just wants – and this is judged on the 11 minutes we spent with Trey Hendrickson. I think he just wants to feel the love because they went out and they had the absolute worst PR ever where they're like, no, he should just be happy. And it's like, no, no, this is not how negotiations should be going. Stop kind of trying to crap on him every chance you get. That's not how it's going to work.
And now he's not playing because they handled it horribly. But again – Trey, you going to play? Yeah.
He's had back-to-back seasons of 17 and a half sacks, but I'm with Billy. Push comes to shove. Burrow, Chase, Higgins. Yeah, I'm going to play.
Yeah, I'll be there. I'll be there, guys. Talk to me after training, Kim. I'll be there. Yeah.
What voice is that? The Hendrickson?
That's Trey Hendrickson. I'm a Trey Hendrickson voice double sometimes. Yeah, I'll be there. Anonymous sources next.
God bless football is presented by Smirnoff. We do game days. Please drink responsibly. The Smirnoff company, New York, New York. So you got, you teased one of our, uh, more popular games.
Yeah. Anonymous sources. Yes. I am very much looking forward to it. We also have blind rankings coming up and, uh, Is that a game?
Yeah, not is that a game, just that's a game. Oh, I'm sorry. And more Mikely. And more Mikely. We have a lot to get in on this episode of God Bless Football. Also, Stugatz, I was wondering, because I was thinking of doing this as we're kind of winding down our run here, because there's another show that's winding down its run, which is Around the Horn, and it had me thinking.

Chapter 5: What are the anonymous NFC team executive sources saying after the draft?
Chapter 6: What is the new game 'That's a Game' and how does it work?
Chapter 7: What is the situation with Trey Hendrickson's contract holdout?
I do. Yeah. No, I, well, I don't know about that, but I do. I do like Greg. Yeah. I was thinking maybe Sims, but I feel like if I went to war with Sims, he'd be a casualty of friendly fire. I would be the guy that you can't really trust him. I'd pull out a pin in the grenade, put it in his pocket, and just walk away. Oh, what happened, Chris? You don't have legs now. No legs and no spleen. Yeah.
One last thing to clean up. Explain. I feel like Sims would not go to war for us, right?
Not at all. No, I'm shocked that he even comes on the show still. Right.
But the people who have been on the show, I feel like Golik would go to war for us.
I do.
No.
Go, Joe. Go, Joe. Go, Joe. Gojo maybe. Better chance with Gojo. Mike's too old to fight wars.
He's fought too many wars. Do we have another headline, Billy? Are we done with headlines?
Usually we all provide a headline.

Chapter 8: How do the hosts blind rank running backs and what are their opinions?
Okay, Frank Isolo, the Iceman?
The Iceman is, I mean, you have the complication of Jay Mariotti, who's probably not going to be on the shows at all going forward, but he was like a Mount Rushmore guy. What about Bill Pulaski? Oh, yeah, Bill Plash, she's got to be there. Jackie McMullen's got to be there. Jackie McMullen's got to be there. Jackie Mack is big, yeah. Yeah, she's got to be there.
Wow, I'm surprised with the few segments that we have left.
Tim Kalashaw.
Yeah, let's see here.
The old Boston sports writer, too.
Ooh, maybe he is. Nah. Nah.
Bob Ryan? Bob Ryan?
Oh, Bob Ryan's got to be there. Yeah, you see why, Stugatz? I'm telling you, you really got to.
