Daniel Jeremiah is joined by Brain Baldinger to discuss the top 5 surprises and additions through six weeks of the NFL season. What exactly went wrong for the Los Angeles Chargers? Who saw the Los Angeles Rams being 2-4? Why is the Houston Texans defense not a dominant unit? And the Browns and 49ers being THIS good is certainly surprising.
Daniel Jeremiah breaks down all the action from NFL Week 6 Sunday. DJ first reacts to the news out of Indianapolis that Chris Ballard has been fired by the Colts, and that Philadelphia Eagles QB Jalen Hurts is out for the season.

DJ also asks Jim to share his best stories on Calvin Johnson, Jevon Kearse, Matthew Stafford and Myles Garrett, along with getting Jim to reveal his comeback plans.
Daniel Jeremiah breaks down every game from NFL Week 5 Sunday offering his biggest takeaways from the results around the league. First, the 49ers got a HUGE road win at Seattle. DJ takes a look at Mike Evans' dominant showing while also discussing Gracen Halton's impact on the San Francisco D-line, as the rookie made arguably the play of the game in the win. Plus, the Patriots and Packers offenses lit up the Raiders and Bears, with both offering their best performances of the season after some lackluster efforts earlier in the year. The Ravens got a big win on Sunday Night Football thanks to some Tyler Huntley heroics, and DJ took a look at a Baltimore edge rusher that probably isn't getting talked about enough. The Lions offense flexed its muscle on the road in Arizona and the defense played surprisingly well. Does that say more about Detroit or the Cardinals? The Vikings remain perfect and the offense looked better this week! DJ breaks down how Kevin O'Connell is learning how to use Kyler Murray before getting into the great tape from David Bailey, Arvell Reese and Sonny Styles as the three Top 10 picks continue to deliver on a weekly basis. Finally, some notes on the Bengals offense and Jordan Battle's 2 interception performance and Will Anderson Jr.'s continued dominance as he strengthens his DPOY case.
Daniel Jeremiah is joined by former Los Angeles Chargers and Las Vegas Raiders GM Tom Telesco to do a deep dive on the 4-0 and 0-4 teams.

Plus the path to getting the Los Angeles Chargers back on track might be simpler than it seems. And what has plagued the Texans and Buccaneers? DJ and Tom share why teams with playoff aspirations have gotten off to such a poor start. Tom also breaks down how significant Denzel Boston and KC Concepcion have been for the Cleveland Browns and how there's a bright future ahead.
