  • Top 100 Throwdown: Lamar Respect, Saquon at #1 & Our Re-Ranked List
    Sep 12 2025

    The NFL’s 2025 Top 100 list just dropped, and you know what that means—Stacy and Riley are back on the couch with opinions hotter than Mahomes slander in Kansas City. From Saquon Barkley topping the list to WHY Patrick Mahomes is even on it at all, they tear into the rankings, re-order their own top 10, and of course clash over the eternal Living Room Rivalry debate: is Lamar Jackson being disrespected, or fairly ranked?

    They also:

    • Argue TJ Watt vs. Sexy Dexy, and whether injuries should dock elite defenders
    • Vent about Jamar Chase hype vs. Justin Jefferson consistency
    • Break down the Burrow/Lamar/Allen QB tier
    • Debate Derrick Henry vs. Saquon Barkley at the top
    • Question how defense ever gets judged fairly in lists like these
    • And pivot to MLB wild card chaos—Astros’ cold bats, Rangers’ push, Yankees’ revival, and a Giants hot streak

    It’s peak rivalry energy: football fights, baseball banter, and plenty of digs at each other’s “disrespectful” takes.

  • Fantasy Football Face-Off: Giants, Jettas & Couch Wars
    Aug 28 2025

    In this episode of Living Room Rivalry, Stacy and Riley kick back on the couch and dive headfirst into NFL fantasy football fever. From bold Giants optimism (and some masochistic fandom confessions) to Vikings quarterback debates, they spar over stats, schedules, and season surprises.

    The duo goes position-by-position in their fantasy matchup—Baker vs. Hurts, Bijan vs. Bucky, Jettas vs. AJ Brown—and argue passionately about wide receivers, defenses, and which picks were pure genius (or pure delusion). Along the way, they tackle name mispronunciations, trash talk Jamar Chase hype, and reveal just how far they’ll go to avoid cheering for the Cowboys.

    It’s fantasy football, family banter, and fan energy all rolled into one lively showdown.
