The Goal Post

The Goal Post is back after an interesting weekend of CFL Football.

Damien and Patrick start off the show by talking about the smoke-delay to the Stampeders / Roughriders game on Friday night, before getting into the game itself on Saturday. Hamilton continues to soar while Ottawa gets closer to absolute rock-bottom. Speaking of rock bottom, Edmonton crashed hard against BC on Sunday, just a week after getting their first win.

The Boys then issue another edition of The Goal Post 3 Stars of the Week - in which they were forced to actually give out 4 stars instead of 3. Next, they do a major re-shuffle of the CFL power rankings to take into account Week 6 wins and losses, before moving to Week 7.

They quickly preview each game on the Week 7 slate, including moving lines and quick thoughts, before giving out their Week 7 picks - The Podcast is 13-7 to date.

To finish is the culmination of the Goal Post Playoff Picks battle - Damien went 3-2, while Patrick went 4-1 to become the Playoff Picks champion! Both ended up over .500 for their playoff picks.

The Goal Post is back after the Championship Round in the NFL

Damien and Patrick start off the show by lamenting what the Pro Bowl has become before jumping into both the AFC and NFC Championship games. They go through what went wrong for the Bills and what the Chiefs did right, along with major coaching decisions on either side - they finish by reflecting on just how impressive this Chiefs run is, and the general lack of parity in the Super Bowl over the last 6-7 years.

The Boys then move to the NFC Championship - a game that was dominated on the ground and through turnovers. They reflect on the great season that Washington had, but came away most impressed by how polished the Eagles look.

To finish, the boys give their early thoughts on the Super Bowl matchup and initial reads on the game - which includes an interesting discussion about the limited amount of hosting sites for the big game. They also outline their game plan for settling the Goal Post Playoff Picks - Both Damien and Patrick sit at 3-3 after 3 rounds of playoff football, and will settle the score with a props competition in the Super Bowl.

The Goal Post is back after a huge weekend of both College and NFL Football:

Damien and Patrick start off the show by recapping a massive Monday Night for the Ohio State Buckeyes, winning the National Championship. Patrick is officially a National Champion. They recap the legacy and resume of OSU’s season, where Ryan Day stands now, and go through a full game recap - which ends in some choice words from Patrick to Michigan and their fans.

The Boys then quickly recap the Divisional Round games — the questionable refereeing in the Texans/Chiefs game, the Commanders Cinderella story, the snowy Rams vs Eagles game, and the Bills huge win over the Ravens.

To finish, the boys break down both the NFC Championship and the AFC Championship: Washington is in for a bit of a mismatch against Philly, but they don’t count Jayden Daniels and the Commanders out of this game, while the Bills’ Super Bowl hopes rest solely on Josh Allen’s shoulders. They finish with another edition of The Goal Post Playoff Picks!
