Having uncontrolled eosinophilic esophagitis or EOE can mean you're stuck in many ways, like cutting your food into tiny pieces.
Or stuck chewing food for a long time. Dupixant dupellumab, a prescription medicine for patients one year and older weighing at least 33 pounds can help with that. It's a breakthrough treatment that can reduce inflammation in the esophagus and improve swallowing.
SPEAKER_2 (1:26)
You can get with this or you can get with that.
SPEAKER_5 (1:28)
How about this? Dupixant is not a steroid. It proactively treats EOE so you can get ahead of it.

Severe allergic reactions, including skin reactions, can occur. Get help right away if you have trouble breathing or wheezing or swelling of your face, mouth, tongue or throat. Tell your doctor of new or worsening joint aches and pain or a parasitic infection or asthma. Don't change or stop other treatments without talking to your doctor.
SPEAKER_5 (1:49)
Feeling stuck with EOE? Start treating with Dupixant. Talk to your gastroenterologist or allergist today about Dupixant. Learn more at dupixant.com or call 1-844-DUPIXANT.

Before the season started, you and I lamented one thing in particular, right?
And I'm going to get to the defense. Don't worry, I have plenty of things to say about the defense for all.
Mike G (3:01)
Fair enough.
Ike Jones (3:03)
I want to start the conversation with the offense, though, because you and I had this conversation in the preseason, and I said to you and you agreed with me, I did not want to get on post game shows and on Sunday shows talking about an offensive head coach with a broken offense. I didn't want to do it. Not again this year. We're at the bye week, and it feels like every week, we have to have a conversation about the inability of this offense to produce points.
Again, what do you feel like is the reason why they can't get this together, man?
Mike G (3:49)
Offensive line.
I think that this, how they've called it up so far, you require a better offensive line than you have or how they're calling it. I'm not sure if there's a version of this offense that works with the personnel that they have and this offensive line. I know somebody's gonna say, well, it doesn't matter what offense you have, as long as you have a good offensive line. But yeah, false. If you got the right personnel, you can get, and I want to point out, Byrum Brown's first interception had nothing to do with the offensive line.
So you're not throwing picks because the offensive line can't protect. You just sailed it. That's it. He's been inaccurate on throws down the field.
Ike Jones (4:37)
That is true.
Mike G (4:38)
We were five games in. So here's the thing. Why isn't it working? Well, it's because your run game isn't, it has to use the bathroom.
And your pass game is not consistent enough to compensate. That's why we're here. Now, you can say it's personnel, but I don't think that the wide receivers are the problem.
