The NFL offseason is heating up with quarterback rumors, free agency speculation, trade predictions, and bold roster changes heading into the 2026 season. Just like NFL teams searching for the right quarterback, we all have to ask:

What am I looking for? What do I truly need?

In this episode we ask:

👉 What quarterback in the right situation could THRIVE?

👉 What NFL team is just one QB away from getting over the hump?

We break down potential NFL quarterback trades, free-agent fits, and bold offseason predictions — plus a powerful faith devotional on fresh starts, renewed commitment, and hope. We discuss how Jesus Christ is the answer.

🏈 NFL QB Trade & Free Agency Predictions and Best Case Scenarios

Could we see:

• Justin Fields to the Ravens?

• Kirk Cousins back to the Vikings?

• Sam Howell to the Panthers or Patriots?

• Anthony Richardson to the Bills or Rams?

• Tua Tagovailoa to the Eagles?

• Derek Carr to the Jets?

• Kyler Murray to the Falcons?

Which teams will make bold moves?

Which franchises will settle?

Who gives their fanbase real hope for the future?

On this week's UNPACKIN' it podcast, Bryce Johnson and Trip Smith unpack if sports fans will follow hockey after Team USA won gold…and how this translates to following Jesus.

The guys discuss whether the sports fans who rooted so hard for Team USA in this gold medal game will begin following hockey, specifically the NHL, moving forward.

They also share their thoughts on the times we experience a “spiritual high” after an inspiring sermon, a powerful retreat, or an encouraging lunch with a friend...and ask if we will actually serve and follow Jesus after getting fired up in these memorable moments.

Check out the panel discussion from this year's Super Saturday Man Breakfast, hosted by UNPACKIN' it, that took place in Charlotte the day before the Super Bowl.

It's an authentic, encouraging, and inspiring conversation.

Topics Include:

• How God has worked in Dwan's life in the midst of a divorce.
