Saturday vs Sunday episodes

  • Josh Allen MVP | Bucs | Mahomes hurt | Vikings | Packers | Lions Injuries | Campbell quitter

    NFL Week 15 is in the books.


    Josh Allen looks like the MVP, and the Bills, Ravens and Chiefs are separating from the rest of the AFC.


    The Eagles, Packers and Vikings are joining the Lions at the top of then NFC.


    Injuries are piling up:


    Detroit Lions suffer three more season ending injuries to key players including David Montgomery, Alim McNeil and Carlton Davis.


    Patrick Mahomes, TJ Watt, and Geno Smith may all have suffered ankle injuries that might keep them out of next weeks games, and Nick Chubb broke his foot.


    Turnovers:


    The Browns, Titans, Colts, Bengals, Dolphins, and Panthers all had 4 or more turnovers, which is totally unacceptable this late in the season.


    Bad Offenses:


    The Steelers, Chargers and Seahawks offenses continue to sputter and look shaky going into the final games of the season.


    Broncos win despite 3 INTs from Bo Nix.


    DeVondre Campbell quits on the 49ers and gets a 3 game suspension. Jonathan Taylor drops the ball before crossing the goal line in what continues to be the most infuriating trend in football, the show boat ego drop.


    Davante Adams goes off, but it's too little too late.


    And Derek Stingley pics off Tua twice while covering Tyreek Hill to help secure a big time win for the Texans.

  • Can Lawrence Taylor help Belichick build a national championship contender at UNC?

    Bill Belichick is the new head coach at University of North Carolina.


    Belichick's father coaches there in the 50's but perhaps his more relevant connection to the school is their greatest ever player, and possibly the greatest pure football player he ever coached Lawrence Taylor.


    Taylor has already mentioned in an interview that he loves the idea of Belichick coaching at UNC and Taylor still loves the school and how it was a major formative part of his development as a person and player.


    With all of the success in New England with Brady it's easy to forget that Belichick's also won two super bowls as a defensive coordinator with the New York Giants and Lawrence Taylor as their star player.


    Belichick coached Taylor from his rookie season through to his retirement.


    In today's episode we give our takes on how we think this could work and how it might not. Could Lawrence Taylor be a key to attracting top players and build UNC into a national title contender immediately? We will find out!!!

  • Oregon ASU, UGA, Boise, Clemson, Army win! SMU gets spot in playoff despite loss. Best and Worst.

    NCAA Championship weekend is a wrap. In this episode we share the best and worst things we saw this weekend.


    Navy dominates behind a stellar performance from their all world QB Bryson Daily.


    Cam Skattebo goes off and Arizona State dominates Iowa State in the BIG12 championship game. ASU earning a bye is the likely the most improbable outcome given they were picked to finish last in the Big 12.


    Oregon defends #1 rank and earns a bye by winning a track meet against Penn State. Thats right, I said a track meet!


    Georgia plays yet another half game but earns a bye with their second win over Texas.


    Ashton Jeanty gives the Hiesman voters more fuel to choose him as the Broncos secure a bye in a gritty win over UNLV to take the Mountain West championship.


    Clemson wins the ACC in a stunner with 16 seconds left in regulation. This is likely the outcome that left Bama and Miami on outside looking in for the playoffs.


    Great weekend, and the bracket is now set for the first ever 12 team college football playoffs.

  • Eagles! | Leonard Williams had a day | Josh Allen MVP | Eberfus Fired | Al Shaair Dirty Hit

    NFL Week 13 is in the books.


    Josh Allen looks like the MVP as the Bills demolish the 49ers, adding to the narrative that warm weather teams cannot compete in the cold. The Dolphins getting soundly beat in Green Bay reinforces the sentiment.


    Philadelphia Eagles took over the game in the second quarter and never let the Ravens back in it. The Eagles are making a case as one of the two best teams in the NFC with the Lions. Conversely the Ravens have now dropped 5 games and may end up only squeaking into the playoffs as a wild card team.


    The Colts win a thriller against the Patriots in a game that featured two of the leagues new young QBs. Drake Maye looks like he's going to be a gem, and Richardson may be the best red zone weapon in the NFL.


    Burrow and Cousins throw 4 picks each as both teams drop another game in what is turning out to be disappointing seasons for both.


    The Panthers lose a heart breaker in overtime as Hubbard has a back breaking fumble.


    The weekend was also plagued by terrible special teams play, topped by the Seattle Seahawks giving up a kick return TD, and them fumbling the ensuing kick off...yet they somehow won the game, and that was thanks to the 92 pick six, 2 sacks, 3 TFLs and blocked kick by Leonard Williams!


    We would be remiss if we did not discuss Matt Eberflus's inexplicable decision to let the clock run out at the end of the Bears Lions game, and ultimately led to his dismissal.


    And finally the ugliest thing of the weekend was the blatant dirty hit from Azeez Al Shaair on Trevor Lawrence. Lawrence was clearly concussed after the hit, and we discuss the dangers of the feet first slide and put forward an argument for the head first slide actually being a safer way to slide moving forward.
