# The Right Time with Bomani Jones (@therighttimewithbomanijones) Podcast on Boilpoints Page: https://boilpoints.com/u/therighttimewithbomanijones ## Latest segments - [Ernie Johnson to retire](https://boilpoints.com/point/ernie_johnson_to_retire_3566636567), 2026-10-29: **Appreciates Johnson and names his replacement**. Turns the retirement into a long appreciation of Ernie Johnson as the template for the white homie, then names Lefkoe as the pick to replace him. The one new fact is Barkley's own framing: he had already said this would be his last year because it is Ernie's last year. - [Seahawks beat Chiefs](https://boilpoints.com/point/seahawks_beat_chiefs_1020217404), 2026-10-29: **Argues Seattle's run defense undid Mahomes**. Foxworth argues the fix is not a receiver but a run game: Seattle stopped Kansas City's run without compromising its coverage, so Mahomes never got the loaded boxes that made the early-season offense work. Opinion and analysis, staying inside the Week 7 loss. - [Broncos beat Cardinals 30-16](https://boilpoints.com/point/broncos_beat_cardinals_30_16_2782651175), 2026-10-29: **Questions Denver's record against its play**. Uses the Broncos' 5-2 record as a jumping-off point: the wins feel better than the play, with the Rams pass interference call and Fitzpatrick's criticism of the quarterback as evidence. Then pivots to McCarthy and a riff on running quarterbacks. - [Browns beat Ravens](https://boilpoints.com/point/browns_beat_ravens_494179259), 2026-10-29: **Adds the owner's verdict on the Watson trade**. Turns to the Comeback Player of the Year chatter around Deshaun Watson and the Browns' 5-2 start, then maps a path to 11-6 and the quarterback decision that would follow. The new piece is the owner's own verdict on the trade and contract. - [Lions-Vikings Week 8 line](https://boilpoints.com/point/lions_vikings_week_8_line_1313586611), 2026-10-29: **Previews Detroit's test and Gibbs' workload**. Previews the Lions-Vikings Week 8 meeting as a measuring stick for Detroit's offense against Minnesota's defense, and flags a workload concern: Gibbs is on pace to break the NFL record for touches, and he and St. Brown are listed as questionable. - [Bears trade for Jeffrey Simmons](https://boilpoints.com/point/bears_trade_for_jeffrey_simmons_4050386863), 2026-10-29: **Reacts to Simmons fitting Allen's front**. Reacts to the Simmons trade, calling him the one difference maker on Tennessee and arguing he fits Dennis Allen's front-dependent defense. Frames it around Caleb Williams' improvement and the Bears' trip to Seattle, staying inside the trade reaction already on the record. - [Ravens at Bills, Week 8](https://boilpoints.com/point/ravens_at_bills_week_8_2449550909), 2026-10-29: **Frames Lamar's leverage and the 4-4 stakes**. Foxworth frames Ravens-Bills around Lamar Jackson's leverage: the no-agent, NBA-style approach that leaves the team and insiders guessing, plus the stakes of falling to 4-4 and last in the division. Stays inside the week's reporting. - [WNBA Finals Game 6](https://boilpoints.com/point/wnba_finals_game_6_2243559045), 2026-10-29: **Argues the sellout was the real story**. Riffs on the afternoon tip and the outrage machine around it, arguing the sellout of 17,000 seats is the real story and the mess was avoidable with better front-end planning. Stays inside the scheduling debate already on the record. - [Miami at North Carolina](https://boilpoints.com/point/miami_at_north_carolina_3929904754), 2026-10-28: **Recalls Miami's 2004 loss at North Carolina**. Reaches back to Miami's 2004 loss at North Carolina, which the segment calls the end of the U era, and frames the coming trip to Chapel Hill as Belichick against Cristobal. Then drifts into 1988 Miami-Notre Dame nostalgia, with Pat Forde recalling covering that game. - [Auburn stuns Georgia](https://boilpoints.com/point/auburn_stuns_georgia_408548492), 2026-10-28: **Reacts to Auburn's win over Georgia**. Reaction segment on Auburn's win in Athens, framed through Kirby Smart's rare home loss to an unranked team and a 2018-20 flashback. Stays inside the result already on the record, then widens to SEC parity and offseason hires. - [Texas beats Ole Miss](https://boilpoints.com/point/texas_beats_ole_miss_425851819), 2026-10-28: **Adds Smothers' absence against Ole Miss**. Revisits the Ole Miss win as a must-win that only calmed the water, then turns to whether Manning is allowed to audible at all. The one new item on the record is a second absence: Hollywood Smothers missed the game along with Colin Simmons. - [Riley's USC doubts](https://boilpoints.com/point/rileys_usc_doubts_1642301489), 2026-10-28: **Puts Riley's buyout at $70 million**. Puts a number on the hot seat: Riley's buyout is $70 million, which the hosts treat as the reason USC probably won't move on him. Frames Saturday against Ohio State as the last stand and floats a Baylor parachute. - [Dante Moore out for season](https://boilpoints.com/point/dante_moore_out_for_season_18110686), 2026-10-28: **Recaps Oregon's collapse around Moore's injury**. Recaps Oregon's collapse around the Dante Moore injury: the coordinator firings, the 15-17-10 scoring line, Raiola's struggles and the suspended receiver. Stays inside the season narrative already on the record. - [Dream move Finals to State Farm](https://boilpoints.com/point/dream_move_finals_to_state_farm_2271856330), 2026-10-26: **Reports Game 6 still has no venue**. Turns to the next scheduling squeeze: Game 6 has no venue yet, and the Dream are still hunting for a building. Frames it as success rather than incompetence, with the College Park arena, the Hawks' back-to-back and a Ramona Shelburne quote as the evidence. - [76ers spoil Knicks ring night](https://boilpoints.com/point/76ers_spoil_knicks_ring_night_2671057898), 2026-10-26: **Adds the 257 rings bought for employees**. Retells the ring-night loss and the phishing test, then adds the team's announcement that 257 rings were purchased for employees and reads Adam Silver's absence from the ceremony as Dolan's doing. The 257 figure is the one new item on the record. - [Hornets drop Heat to 0-3](https://boilpoints.com/point/hornets_drop_heat_to_0_3_1845223318), 2026-10-26: **Adds Miami's league-worst point differential**. Puts a number on the 0-3 start: Miami's point differential is the worst in the league. Reads the roster as bizarrely constructed and argues Giannis, in year 14, is no longer a great perimeter defender. - [Jalen Williams leg injury](https://boilpoints.com/point/jalen_williams_leg_injury_2170791903), 2026-10-26: **Recaps the injury and pivots to Thunder depth**. Takes the Williams injury as a given and spends most of the segment on the Thunder's depth and on Wembanyama's low-post habits, using the Amen Thompson block as the exhibit. The Williams portion is a recap with no new reporting. - [Ty Jerome's 45-point night](https://boilpoints.com/point/ty_jeromes_45_point_night_3072554902), 2026-10-26: **Adds Jerome's 34.7 points per game**. Pivots from the 45-point night to the season line: Jerome leads the NBA at 34.7 points per game for a 3-0 Memphis, up from 19.7 last season. A new figure from a new source, not a retelling of the game. - [Giants beat Texans in OT](https://boilpoints.com/point/giants_beat_texans_in_ot_2665713791), 2026-10-26: **Puts a 58 QBR on McCarthy's first start**. Concedes McCarthy looked good in his first start, then puts a number on it: a 58 QBR with no touchdown passes, a line that reads better than the stat. Frames a Giants win as an indictment of Kevin O'Connell and reaches for the Favre trade as precedent. - [Packers-Lions showdown](https://boilpoints.com/point/packers_lions_showdown_166839917), 2026-10-26: **Argues Campbell's fourth-down play was too slow**. Bomani spends the segment on Campbell's fourth-down gamble in the tie game, arguing the play was too slow developing and rejecting the guaranteed-possession defense. He reaches for Switzer and Belichick comparisons; the substance stays inside the decision already on the record.
