Welcome back to the NFL Total Access Podcast, I'm thrilled to be joined by a Super Bowl Champion and former #1 Overall Pick, David Carr.

In this episode, it's "Top 5 Tuesday." We're diving into the rankings, analyzing the Top 5 teams in the NFC, the Top 5 teams in the AFC, and, of course, the Top 5 Teams in the entire NFL. Who's on the rise, and who's making a statement this season? David Carr and I have our picks.

But that's not all. The MVP race is heating up, and we're putting the spotlight on the top candidates. We'll debate who belongs in the MVP conversation, and you won't want to miss David Carr's shocking revelation about Brock Purdy's candidacy.

Next, we take a deep dive into the showdown between the Saints and the Patriots. It wasn't just a win for the Saints; they pushed the legendary Bill Belichick to an unfamiliar place, the hot seat. We'll preview the upcoming matchups between the Saints and Texans, as well as the Patriots and Raiders.

In the NFL, it often comes down to math versus the moment. We'll address and assess Josh McDaniels' latest head-scratching coaching decision. What do NFL players really want their coaches to do in those critical 4th down scenarios?
