Sobre el podcast
Football America is a show about stories that matter—discussed by people who don’t. Why? Because this beautiful game deserves all of the spotlight. Football raised us. We obsess over it. We fight about it. We name our dogs after retired players, then name our children after those dogs. We talk football the way Sinatra sang songs: with conviction. And drunk. Each week, Dave Dameshek’s embarrassing habit of assigning meaning to frivolous stats is on full display as he is joined by a host of celebrities, players, and well-meaning people who play experts on television. Hilarity ensues. Debate follows. It’s a love letter to football written in spicy mustard. Football America! is synonymous (see what we did there?). This isn’t just a sport. It's our national identity… but it’s also a sport.

Week 10. The season has flown by like it always does. The Chargers are done. The Texans are done. The Browns are almost done. And somehow Aaron Rodgers has the Steelers in first place in the AFC North. If they can beat the Bengals, then a Super Bowl is in the picture. And if the Bengals win, then a Super Bowl win is in the picture. Over in Las Vegas, we’ll get our first look at Fernando Mendoza. How will he do? Our friend Joey Mulinaro stops by to say Hoosiers great will lead Vegas to a playoff spot! That’s crazy talk. But is it crazier than everyone picking the Chargers to win it all ten weeks ago?

Week 9 is in the books. And it felt like we survived it instead of enjoying it. The Browns game was brutal. The Giants needed JJ and Jameis to beat Joe Milton. JOE MILTON!? But amid the garbage, we have the NFC North. That’s a truly dominant collection of teams. It’s wild to think the Green Bay Packers at 6-3 are in last place. Or that Caleb Williams can throw 4 picks and still win a game. Or that the Lions can simply game manage their way to the Super Bowl. What a time to be alive! Our friends Ten Day Tony and Nick Kostos join the show to break it all down.

Brissett to the Rescue, Super Bears, and the Book of Malachi (feat. Mike Ryan Ruiz)

It’s the best of times. It’s the worst of times. Best: it’s elimination Saturday in the SEC. Worst: it’s sad times in Miami for Malachi Toney. Mike Ryan Ruiz gets into his feelings to explain what Toney’s injury did to his beloved team. Then we hop in the DeLorean for some time travel. (Our flux capacitor is on the fritz, so apologies ahead of time.) Just know Ten Day Tony is here to chat the classic NFC East matchup between the Cowboys and whoever is playing for the Eagles these days. And that Baker Mayfield will need more than game management against the Bears. But please pump your brakes on all the Chicago Super Bowl chat. There are like 14 teams left with a legit shot to win it all this year. Even the NFC North’s last-place team, the Green Bay Packers.

What in the ever-living hell just happened? Our best guess is we’ll look back on this week as the wildest week of the 2026 season. Think about it: Baker Mayfield won a game against his arch-nemesis Kevin Stefanski without completing a single pass. That’s the first time a team has blanked a team solely on the ground since the Steelers beat the Bears in 1945. Then Gardner Minshew II pulled up like Aragorn in jorts to beat the Cowboys in Texas. Somewhere Mike Leach is smiling down from above. And we haven’t even gotten to the Ravens dying in Buffalo, the Broncos outsmarting Andy Reid at the goal line, and the Lions pulling out some Canadian Football League moves to beat the Vikings. Absolute bonkers week. Ten-Day Tony and our NIL signee Nick Kostos are here to get it all on record.

Could the Ravens fall to .500? With Josh Allen boasting a flawless career record following a bye week, a Bills victory might just put Buffalo in the driver’s seat for the AFC's #1 seed. We break down the playoff implications and preview the biggest matchups of the week, including heavyweight clashes between the Broncos and Chiefs, and the Vikings and Lions. Later, former NFL wide receiver Andrew Hawkins drops by to talk all things Browns and Steelers. We dive into why the battle for control of the AFC North is the most fiercely contested it’s been in years.

Are we watching the NFL's Michael Jordan? We dive into Caleb Williams harnessing MJ-level pettiness and debate if this 2024 QB class—with J.J. McCarthy also rolling—is actually destined to eclipse the legendary class of ’83. Plus, we unpack all the Week 7 fallout from our Winner Stand games: the Lions defending the Motor City against Green Bay, the Chiefs showing their true colors against Seattle, and Cincinnati’s offense absolutely exploding on Baltimore. After raising a glass to the week's most spectacular uniform matchups, Nick Kostos drops in to break down why the undefeated Vikings are the league's most disrespected team since the 2021 Cardinals. Finally, we cap things off with a hilarious detour into Doug Flutie’s relentless history of shilling for late-night boner meds.

Sports Illustrated's Connor Orr joins the show to unpack a chaotic week of NFL action. We start in the AFC North to debate Lamar Jackson's injury status and Joe Burrow's superhuman pace against a hostile Ravens defense.

Finally, we break down why Jordan Love is primed to torch a permeable Lions secondary for 400 yards and end the show investigating the broadcast booth drama currently unfolding between Joe Buck and Troy Aikman.

What a crazy weekend it was in college football and the NFL! Dave, Ethan, and Gino are joined by Nick Kostos of the You Better You Bet podcast to break it all down. Where do the Philadelphia Eagles go from here, with quarterback Jalen Hurts missing the rest of the season with blood clots in his lungs? How was he allowed to play in London in the first place? The gang also discusses which teams are most likely to make it to Conference Championship Sunday, and which team will emerge from the wreckage in the NFC East. Plus, the Jaguars/Texans played a great game in London, the Steelers outlasted the Bucs in OT, and it seems like the NFL has figured out the Dallas Cowboys. Also, Ethan argues that all the chaos in the SEC this weekend is the exact reason people say it is the best conference in college football.

Mike Ryan Ruiz joins the show to talk Cleveland and college sports. We dive straight into the high-stakes Ohio State vs. Indiana showdown. If the Buckeyes lose, will their perception actually improve like Alabama's did against Georgia? Plus, we question how LSU is still ranked and expose the sheer madness of the College FPI—imagine if it put the Chargers and Texans in the NFL playoffs! We also count down our three can't-miss games for Week 6. To wrap it all up, we hit the Las Vegas Raiders with a reality check.

On this episode of Football America, Todd Haley and Jarrett Bailey from The Pump Fake Podcast join to spill tea on his attempt to bring Josh Allen and Saquon Barkley to the Cleveland Browns. We debate whether the Jacksonville Jaguars are legit and marvel at Cam Little’s leg cannon. We also examine why Micah Parsons is Green Bay's missing Super Bowl link and dissect the controversial call that saved San Francisco against Seattle. Finally, we highlight Caleb Williams' upcoming return to Chicago, point out signs of life in the Bengals' run game, and question why skill players (READ: Cam Skattebo) aren't forced to wear sticky gloves.

Nick Kostos joins the show as we break down all the chaotic storylines heading into Week 5 of the NFL. Is this sudden wave of player injuries a genuine crisis or just the annual media narrative? Are two AFC West offensive coordinators on the absolute hottest seats? Over in the NFC North, the Chicago Bears sit at an unexpected 2-0 without Caleb Williams, gearing up for a high-stakes statement game against their arch-rival Packers. Meanwhile, Philadelphia is reeling after Lane Johnson’s sudden mid-week retirement stripped the Eagles of their offensive Jenga piece. Finally, we ask if the 3-1 defending Super Bowl champion Seattle Seahawks are somehow flying under the radar as the quietest frontrunners in recent memory.

One month into the NFL season, the league has officially turned into a fever dream. From an instant-classic shootout between Kansas City and Las Vegas to the Dolphins miraculously covering the spread for the first time all year, no leads—or storylines—are safe. We break down whether Dallas is crazy enough to let George Pickens walk while CeeDee Lamb dominates as the clear-cut No. 1, and detail how New England pulled off a staggering comeback to keep the Bills from putting the AFC East on ice in October. Plus, with seat heat rising fast, we ask the million-dollar question: Is Mike McDaniel’s time in LA running out? To wrap it all up, NFL Media’s Lance Zierlein stops by to drop high-stakes knowledge on everything happening with the Houston Texans.

It is only Week 4 in the National Football League but we already have some season-defining showdowns on tap this weekend. Can the Dallas Cowboys break through against the Houston Texans as the former AFC South favorites try and avoid falling to 0-4? Can either the Los Angeles Chargers or Rams come away with a win this weekend to ignite their seasons? How do the San Francisco 49ers and Denver Broncos match up as possible Super Bowl contenders in their respective leagues? Plus, Trevor Lawrence and Joe Burrow face-off in a rematch of the 2020 National Championship Game to see where they stack up with each other, and where their teams measure up in the AFC race. We've also got our Week 4 selections for Picks Picks Picks, our Stress-Free Sunday picks, and Arif Hasan of Wide Left Football joins us to discuss which teams need a win the most in this pivotal Week 4.

JJ McCarthy is a Giant, Deshaun Watson is actually popular in Cleveland, and Week 3 delivered absolute mayhem. We’re breaking down all the fallout with a stacked lineup of guests.

Then, Geoff Schwartz calls out USC for living in the past and blasts them for celebrating while Dante Moore was motionless on the field. Plus, we dismantle the latest AP poll and explain why its mix of bias and power ranking logic makes no sense.

NFL analyst Ross Tucker stops by to explain why Chad Johnson is criminally underappreciated, while also breaking down why Matthew Stafford deserves way more respect. Then, Tony Calatayud explains why Brock Purdy has been an absolute nightmare for opposing defenses since day one. Plus, we break down a high-stakes week for LA: the Chargers desperately need a win, and the Rams need to put an end to a painful era. Finally, we head south to Brazil, where the Ravens and Cowboys better check their footwear before stepping onto the wildly questionable turf at the Maracanã.

A cataclysmic Week 2 is in the books, and we’re breaking down all the fallout—from Ja'Marr Chase's mind-bending catch to why the Trinidad Chambliss "too old as a rookie" narrative at 25 makes zero sense. We update the season-long Picks battle before bringing on L.A. Rams play-by-play caller JB Long to break down Aaron Donald's return, whether Puka Nacua is the ultimate Jenga piece to this offense, and why L.A.'s Melbourne trip feels like ancient history. Plus, Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson are playing at their absolute peaks, but can either finally lift a Lombardi?

Sixty minutes are in the books, and the NFL landscape is already pure chaos! Are the Jets and Giants both actually competent? Is it time to panic about the vaunted Texans defense after giving up 36 points to Josh Allen and the Bills?

Football is back, which means it’s officially time to panic over sample sizes of one! Mike Ryan Ruiz and Tony Calatayud swing by to publicly recant the terrible Week 1 takes they immediately regret. We ask the tough questions: Are the Rams and Chargers cooked, or just sleeping in? Tony breaks down why the Giants are complete, unadulterated fool's gold, and we roast the Steelers for somehow making a victory look like a mid-afternoon snoozefest. Finally, comedian Brad Williams joins us live from inside a Red Robin to preview Broncos vs. Chiefs—assuming his bottomless fries don't distract him first.

Then, we head over to the AFC to declare why you need to buy all the stock in the Houston Texans and their fantastic young quarterback, CJ Stroud. We also break down why Fernando Mendoza has found himself in the absolute perfect situation to succeed, before taking a trip down memory lane to remind everyone that prime Dan Marino was basically Superman playing the QB position.
Finally, we close out the show with a pop-culture confession: we're defending the nu-metal renaissance and debating why Korn and Limp Bizkit might actually be... good.
