Bucs at Cowboys TNF Preview | The White Sox Magic Run — Coach and Company Thursday 10/8/26

It's Thursday Night Football week on Coach and Company. Coach is headed to Arlington for Buccaneers at Cowboys tonight, and he, Mikey P and Peyton Lodge break down the matchup: Dallas (2-2) coming off a 34-30 comeback win in Houston, and Tampa Bay (0-4) starting undrafted Kansas rookie Jalon Daniels with Baker Mayfield (thumb) out and Antoine Winfield Jr. sidelined. Can the Cowboys' offense, with CeeDee Lamb coming off a 17-catch day, run away with it, and does Todd Bowles survive the season? Mikey P says the moving trucks should already be around the corner. Raphael Esparza stops by for Inside Info, and the crew shares their Best Bets. Picks are opinion, lines move, and please play responsibly.

Then the show turns to October baseball. The Rays swept the Yankees, the Dodgers and Brewers meet in the NLCS, and Peyton makes the case that the White Sox, who lead Cleveland 2-1 in the ALDS with Game 4 tonight, are the best story in the sport. Coach recounts Barstool's first-pitch mix-up, gets "recognized" at Fluffy's Dodger Stadium show, and finally asks the question everyone's thinking: what is it with Mikey P and Ben Johnson?
