Welcome back to another fall of Victory Mondays! Andy is on cloud nine after his Bears put up 59 points in Week 1 of the 2026 NFL season while Brendan took in another pitiful Browns loss during a trip to the great town of Cleveland, Ohio. After some NFL Minute(s) kick off this episode, the two bring in Kevin Van Valkenburg to recap Team Europe's win at the Solheim Cup. Andy, Brendan, and KVV discuss some social media motivation that might've pushed the Euros across the line today, takeaways from the broadcast coverage, and why all of American golf can't seem to figure out foursomes in team competitions. They then move on to Shane Lowry's runaway win at the Irish Open and Andy recalls his proclamation that Lowry "may never win again" after blowing it at PGA National earlier this year. Lowry beat a strong field including Patrick Reed, Joaquin Niemann, and The Gentleman in Training on the way to receive the trophy from President Donald Trump. PJ pops in to share some heartbreaking news about Michael Block's Champions Tour Top 10 streak and applauds Zatch Johnson for securing his fifth win of his rookie season. More NFL Minute(s) close out the show, with Andy peppering PJ about the state of the Packers, who happen to visit the 1-0 New York Jets for a massive Week 2 matchup at JetLife Stadium next Sunday. We will return on Wednesday with more chatter about golf and other things.
