Week 18 is the nastiest of the Nasty Boys

With Andy away on family business, best friends Mike and Jason host a Week 18 episode introduced as 'unlimited diarrhea' and the nastiest version of the Nasty Boys because ordinary championship starters give way to names such as Davis Mills and Davis Webb.

moment

A championship ring beams directly into Jason's pupil

An unnamed champion host orders another ring for the studio's mounted collection and plans to adjust the light so a single reflected beam points directly into Jason's pupil, emphasizing that Jason's display will not grow this year.

moment

The Wentz-versus-Ryan bet changes winners for the fifth time

Carson Wentz starting for the Rams puts Jason's side back ahead in a years-long bet with the other live host over whether Wentz or Matt Ryan leaves the NFL first. Both sides have already declared victory roughly five times, and even now they wait another season because Ryan could return like Joe Flacco.

moment

Four Fantasy Faceoff losses earn Andy a secret pie

Andy loses Fantasy Faceoff four times in a row, allowing the week's unnamed winner to select the next shame: a pie directly in Andy's face on the following show. Because Andy is away and unlikely to listen to the Week 18 breakdown, the hosts tell the Foot Clan early and ask them not to tag him.

moment

The undefeated Derrick Henry snow model faces its first loss

A Burlington weather-desk report forecasts snow and revives the undefeated Derrick Henry snow model. The hosts audit whether last week's snow merely sitting on the ground invalidated the test, admit it felt like their first loss, and preserve hope by noting Henry's recent failures came specifically against Houston.

moment

Follow the shmoney into Tannehill's hand warmer

DeAndre Hopkins needs 49 yards for one million dollars and seven catches for another $250,000, so the hosts imagine him offering Ryan Tannehill $50,000 for the receptions, slipping bills from his hand warmer, and exploiting a mysteriously failed headset to call repeated Hopkins screens.

summary

Episode notes

Andy is away on family business, so Mike and Jason frame their two-man Week 18 show as best friends helping listeners survive 'unlimited diarrhea' and the nastiest of the nasty boys. A championship-merchandise discussion reveals a studio ring display; an unnamed champion host has ordered another and plans to adjust the light so a single reflected beam hits Jason directly in the pupil. The deepest canon is the five-year Carson Wentz-versus-Matt Ryan bet. Carson starting for the Rams puts Jason's side back in the lead, but the hosts refuse to finalize the result because both men have appeared finished repeatedly, each side has already 'won' several times, and Matt Ryan could still stage a Joe Flacco-style comeback. The hosts joke that Wentz and Ryan know about the bet and are deliberately playing them for fools. Andy's absence creates a separate punishment conspiracy: after Andy loses Fantasy Faceoff four times in a row, the current winner earns the right to choose his shame and decides on a pie to the face for the next day's show. The Foot Clan receives inside information and is told not to tag Andy. A Burlington, Vermont weather report then revives the supposedly undefeated Derrick Henry snow model; last week's snow-on-ground result felt like its first loss, but the hosts keep the model alive by separating Houston matchups from the rest. Matthew Betz's incentive article supports the episode, and the money theme culminates in imagining DeAndre Hopkins stuffing Ryan Tannehill's hand warmer with cash in exchange for screen passes while Tannehill's headset repeatedly fails.
