And down the stretch they come. Detroit reclaimed its mojo against the punching-bag Chicago Bears, Minnesota earned a thrilling win in the Pacific Northwest. Tonight, the Packers will face New Orleans.

It’s a strange week with Christmas Eve on Tuesday and Christmas Day on Wednesday, so we dinged record on the Ty & Bob Pod a little early here.

Audio is above. Video is below.

Much is discussed: Jameson Williams’ ascent, Jared Goff’s fatherly presence, Sam Darnold’s elite play and the McGinn Memory brings us all back to August 1987. The same month I was born, our friend Bob here was learning the game from Forrest Gregg.

I cannot thank you all enough for listening and sharing with a friend.

Have a very MERRY CHRISTMAS, everyone!
