Tuesday Morning Blitz

Ep. 17: The Raiders and I

Listen Later

Lots of teams clinched, lots of others folded, and one of the great receivers of the past decade did a striptease. You might say there was a lot to discuss on this week’s TMB, and Cale and Jackson did their best to make sense of it all. Some of the wild directions the conversation took on:

  • Perhaps the most surprising result of the week, a comeback victory by the AFC North Champion Bengals! (1:36)
  • A wacky season in Tennessee somehow leading to a golden opportunity to earn a first-round bye (6:15)
  • The fallout of the Raiders’ triumph in Indy Sunday afternoon (10:13)
  • A quick timeout to pay tribute to John Madden, who contributes to our continuing love of football by the minute (16:12)
  • The Packers, who have locked up the one-seed and developed one of the most prolific QB-WR connections we’ve ever witnessed (19:20)
  • A true reversal of fortunes for both teams on the field in Dallas (25:26)
  • Brief discussion of the merits of Trey Lance (32:25)
  • Antonio Brown’s meltdown and the apparent end of a truly bizarre career (34:00)
  • Game balls, including offense (42:16), defense (49:05) and special teams (54:48)
  • The best-looking uniform games of Week 17 (58:26)
  • Some late-game head-scratchers that hurt our brains (1:03:40)
  • A Tuesday Morning Reading courtesy of the insane Joe Judge rant (1:11:13)
  • And the Monday Night Football Lookahead! (1:15:58)

    • Thanks for tuning into Episode 17. Be sure to follow @TMB_Pod, @CaleClinton and @jrobertsbsbl on Twitter if you like football (which you probably do, if you’re reading this), and we’ll see you next Tuesday!
