Ep. 45: The Battle for the NFC South

1 hour 21 minutes

Nearly at the halfway point of the 2022 NFL season, is it reasonable to say we've learned anything yet? Well, who knows, but we're trying to act as if we have. We recorded a podcast in a state of chaos--Jackson returning from a night of editing Dominican baseball highlights and Cale returning from MetLife Stadium with a Grade 3 sunburn. So let chaos reign!

Why a setback for the Giants wasn’t exactly a surprise (7:00)

Examining the disaster that the 2021 QB draft class has become (11:25)

We were right that the South would be chaos… just the wrong conference (21:26)

Checking back in on the old man quarterbacks continuing to suffer losses (30:21)

What do we make of the New Orleans Saints? (42:10)

Game balls, including offense (45:36), defense (53:24) and special teams (59:18)

The uniforms that stole our hearts in Week 8 (1:01:00)

Why taking one’s helmet off in celebration is a head-scratcher, but maybe not in the way you’d expect (1:04:49)

Looking ahead to Monday Night Football (1:13:40)

…and previewing Week 9 with some ticket price assessments! (1:13:42)
