ITL celebrates official Houston Texans schedule release day as leaks continue pouring in ahead of the full announcement, with John Lopez arguing Houston may actually be getting screwed by how the schedule is shaping up. The guys debate travel stretches, primetime placement, rest disadvantages, and which leaked matchups could make the Texans’ road much tougher than expected. ITL also reacts to more league-wide schedule leaks, with Reggie Adetula making it clear he’s not a fan of this year’s Thanksgiving slate, while the crew debates whether the NFL is prioritizing hype over quality matchups. The show also dives into whether fans would want C. J. Stroud featured on Quarterback on Netflix and whether that kind of spotlight helps or hurts a franchise quarterback. More Texans schedule leaks continue later in the show, including a rumored Week 1 opponent, while ITL reacts to Maxx Crosby giving high praise to Houston’s newest tackle and what that could mean for expectations moving forward. Lunch-Time Confessions returns with hilarious and relatable stories before another edition of OG’s Buy or Sell. The Houston Astros are also a major topic after battling to a hard-fought win, with ITL debating whether it actually lifted anyone’s spirits and later asking whether Houston’s next stretch of games could ultimately determine how aggressive the organization becomes at the trade deadline. Figgy’s Mixtape wraps up the show with awkward funeral drama, a hilarious fake ad inspired by Clint Stoerner and Seth Payne that turns into a fake commercial for Reggie and Lopez to read on air, and more chaotic internet stories. Plus, the QOTD asks listeners: if you had one free punch with zero repercussions, who would get it?
