On today’s episode, a preview of the NFL Divisional Round Weekend that sees some matchups with great storylines. Can Josh Allen carry the Bills to victory again? Are the 49ers too beat up to take down the Seahawks? Will the weather be too much for Houston? Can the Cardiac Bears pull off some more magic this week against a favoured Rams team? Along with this, coaching news; John Harbaugh hired by the Giants, Mike Tomlin out as Head Coach of the Steelers. Chris Costich, Adam Wright, and CJ Medeiros talk all this and more!

Today's episode of the Fumbaruski podcast. It's the NFL divisional round. We take a look at the four games for this weekend and make our pick on who's going to come out on top. This is Fulmuruski podcast. It may not have always showed it in the stat sheet, but you can see him making throws when he needs to make the throws. Back-to-back games where he has three touchdowns. Someone's got to get that six or seven spot. He's an elite wide receiver as a rookie.

truly a lose-lose scenario for both sides. Welcome to the Falmarusky podcast by Power 8018 Radio in Secret Weptain Consulting. We got C.J. Medeiros and we got Adam Wright in studio. And I'm Chris Costich. Glad for you to join us for today's Friday episode. And, yeah, I'm going to be looking at the NFL divisional round for this weekend and making our game picks for that.

Go over some of the storylines going into the... these games. But first, some house cleaning stuff, uh, adds some coaching news go on. I will start with the most recent one, which was John Harbaugh hired as the head coach of the New York football giants. I like the hire. I mean, if you're Harbaugh, you're freaking thrilled with the team that you have.

Get to screw around with Jackson Dart, Malik neighbors and Kim Skataboo. Pause. I can't go on after that. Someone take the reins. Jesus Christ. I'll be the host for today. No, you're not being the host.

Just talk about John Harbaugh and the Giants, please. I mean, I did it for like four years, but. Yeah, well, it's my turn. I'm the captain now. It's my turn. Pulling the strings from behind the scenes, I think the producer has a little bit of power, at least a little pull. Listen, I look.

I'll pull you, bro. I like the higher. I'm cautiously optimistic because I did say in my direct response to the firing when we first covered it, I said, whichever team that he ends up on, he will improve. The Giants are a team. I do think he will improve them. But the only reason I'm cautious about it, not just optimistic, cautiously optimistic, is because they need to be careful with Jackson Dart.

And the reason they need to be careful with him is because that kid has been reckless, which is a normal thing for quarterbacks, but he hasn't really shown a willingness to take the coaching. And that's part of why Brian Dable's gone. It's, yeah, Brian Dable is a great quarterback whisper who can get the most out of the strengths of any quarterback. But, and he seems to be one of the better analyzers of quarterbacks that I've ever seen. I mean, he was drooling over Drake May. He would have given his grandmother for that guy back in 2004, rather. But the kid's reckless and he doesn't really have a willingness to learn.

So you, if you're John Harbaugh, since he's more of a defensive guy, you really, really need to make sure that you hire the right guy to kick him in the ass. because that kid needs some way somehow to get the message through with him because he's not going to be in the league much longer and he's also not going to be very good if he continues with how he has been. His completion percentage was very low this year and all he did was want to just run. That's all he wanted to do.

So there needs to be some discipline there. The kid has all the tools possible to succeed, but Harbaugh needs to be a real hard ass with this kid and really whip him into shape. Otherwise, the Giants are going nowhere. C.J. I'll second that. A lot of what derailed the Giants this season, of course, was injuries. You know, Scataboo went down, Malik neighbors went down.

Like, nobody could stay healthy. Of course, neither could dart. But that was more so his own doing, if that makes sense. I do think Adam is correct here. And it's not, and much like him, it's not that I don't think Dark can't improve. He has to want to. You see, coming out of the draft,

he was a, like a backyard football kind of guy. You know, just chuck it all over the field with bad of care, run around, all that, you know, scramble, throw in a double coverage. He's learning the hard way that in the end. NFL, you can't do that. You know, and I think that was really exposed when they played New England where he was dancing on the sidelines and Christian Ellis took his head off or when he was trying to slide out of the pocket and Harold Landry buried him in the term.

That was really the game where we were like, okay, dark, calm down. And then after the game, he doubled down. He's like, no, we're not playing soccer, which, look, I love the attitude. Like, I love the toughness. But there's a fine line. I think between toughness and just self-preservation. And much like Adam Harbaugh is going to need to sit him down and say, yeah, you will not start if this is not going to fly.

He has to be coached somewhat. So I can't hate that. But as for Harbaugh, I do think he's a guy who can come in and he can set a floor for the team, if that makes sense. I think he can, obviously they're not going to compete for Super Bowl. right away. This is a good, you know, he won a ring with Joe Flacco. He coached two-time MVP and Lamar Jackson.

He's won 13 playoff games. Granted the success, the success has alluded him as of late. But the Giants are one of those weird teams that I think is better than their record would indicate, at least when fully healthy. So when you get neighbors and Scataboo back, I want to see Harbaugh kind of, you know, maybe keep Dar on a shorter leash, but open the play. a paybook a bit, you know, really let them gel with neighbors and, hey, they should be a good threat in the NFC.

Next year. I mean, maybe they're not going to win a division. They don't even go to the playoffs, but be one of those teams where it's like, all right, you can't look past them, you know? He's not like this year. I think my prediction for the next three years, expect to be like the first three years of Harbaugh in Baltimore. Sure.

Because, you know, it's kind of a similar. situation as when he was in Baltimore. New QB, new, well, obviously DART's going to be year two, but new wish QB. New QB, new head coach, offense that can be good, very good defense.

I think that they can be competitive, competing for the NFC East, as CJ said, for the next three seasons. And probably go back to the old ways of the NFC East and not having a repeat winner for 20 freaking years. Old ways, as

like last year. Yeah, literally. But it wasn't for commanders' injuries. I guarantee you they probably would have taken it. Oh, yeah. Eagles had a really bad year. All due respect. Yeah.

100%. Squawking Eagles, but. Yeah, respect. Other news in the AFC North, Mike Tomlin resigning as head coach of the Pittsburgh Steelers. Well, we were expecting him to get fired, but, you know, it's the Steelers and they can't fire anybody.

So Tomlin decides he's going to resign. Basically the big thing about this and this whole thing is, A, the Steelers, if Tomlin wants to coach anywhere else, Steelers have to trade him. So that's the big thing, which Tomlin basically just gave his team it out, which good on him. You know, he's been around for almost 20 years or was, Yeah, it was 20 years. And on top of that, too, it sounds like Tomlin's going to be taking the Sean Peyton route,

which is take a break from coaching altogether. So don't know when the next time we'll see Tomlin is, but truly an end of an era for the Steelers and should be interesting to see what they end up doing for their coach of search for this offseason. I'm actually very, I'm interested in both sides, because on one hand, the Steelers do need a new head coach. And they knew to new, let's be real, they need to new everything. I mean, everywhere you look, that team is aging like milk.

And it's getting worse. So I will say, we've dumped on Mike Tomlin for being the mid coach, the guy who's held that record of nine and eight or better. But look at what they've had to work with lately. So I will give him a little feather in his cap that he's been able to continue with what he's been given. I mean, I don't know what kind of a say he's had in the personnel as far as what's on the field. But I will give him a little credit there.

And when he did have the toys to really compete, when he had prime Ben Rothesburg, when he had Antonio Brown not psychotic, lay beyond Bell before holding out that one year. When he had the talent around him, they were winning games and competing with the Patriots, as good as you can be without being. Peyton Manning. If I'm Tomlin, I'm kind of excited to see what options there are out there. And I would be looking at the bills and saying, how committed are you to Sean McDermott if you're out?

If they make it to the AFC championship or further, I don't see them moving on from Sean McDermott. But I think Mike Tomlin's much better of a head coach. I think he hasn't been given much to work with. let's say in a world, and I'm building a bit of a steel man here, the bills decide to fire Sean McDermott, they bring in Mike Tomlin, and they reload with weapons trading for AJ Brough. This is a bit of a steel man, but they would automatically probably win that division again. And I mean, who's beating them right now?

The chiefs are going through a bit of a reload process right now. the Bengals look incompetent with Joe Burrow. The Ravens are going through a little bit of something themselves. If the bills made that hiring change and they bring in AJ Brown or just some other number one receiver, they're back. They're back. And I might have them as a slam dunk favorite to go to the Super Bowl next year. And here I'm saying that as they have a chance that they could do it this year.

But they're kind of limping there. They would become a juggernaut again. they got that. So just saying. So you, Jeff. This is a very weird scenario because I think Tomlin, you know, it's like, oh, Mr. 9 and 8, Mr. 10 and 7, he is a good coach, you know. I think he's a very good coach. But the thing is, obviously he stepped down his head coach.

But I kind of view it as like, you know, when they say mutual parting away, It's like when the organization sits you down and says, your ass is out one way or another, do you want it to be on your own accord or do you want to be dragged out? That's more or less how I view this. It might not be. We don't know for certain, but that's like nine out of ten times usually how these things go.

You know, it happens with like Go Belichick and so on and Harbaugh and all the others. So, you know, we don't know. That's usually how it happens. It might not be. But he's still under contract. meaning a team would have to trade for him, which is definitely an important wrinkle here. Because resigning, even if the team prodded him into doing that, like I said, still under contract.

So we'll see. Like we said before, the language is important there. So for him, I could see him going to TV for a year because he's got to, I find him very funny. You know, the Tomlinisms are always, you know, funny. I'm not a Steelers fan. make me chuckle. So I could definitely see him going to maybe replacing Terry Bradshaw on Fox Sports or something like that. That guy don't go.

But I was saying, though, I could definitely see that. I could see him taking a year off and then coming back. Because say what you will about him, I think there is a place in the NFL forum. No, I know there's a place in the NFL forum. But when you look at the Steelers, I'm not trying to start a debate, but it is worth noting that he had almost full roster autonomy

especially when it came to the draft and free agency. Many Pittsburgh people reported it. I had seen it myself. So, you know, he buys the groceries, he cooks the meal, that's kind of his thing. So this roster like, dude, come on.

And I think what we might see is a ripple effect. With Tomlin gone, Aaron Rogers I don't think is going back. He either retires or, he packs up his stuff and he goes somewhere else. You might remember for this season, Cam Hayward wanted an extension. Didn't get it.

He threatened a hold out, but he didn't. What happens now that Tomlin's gone? Is Hayward still be willing to play ball? T.J. Watt has an extension that is going to kick in now, and he took a major step back this year. Injuries are not, he still did. So what happens there? to, you know, D.K. Metcalf is a notorious headache. Is he going to want to stick around?

You know, one of the reasons he went to Pittsburgh was for Tomlin, now you don't have that. Pittsburgh, for a potential spot for free agents to go, just became a hell of a lot less sexy. And one more thing. I do not trust their owner, Art Rooney II, to hire a new head coach. a lot of Steelers fans don't like them. The Steelers media is kind of iffy on him. Do you think, like, what do you think? What's going to happen?

I don't trust him not to promote someone like Arthur Smith. I don't. Or he's probably to go for a retread like McCarthy. I just, I don't know. I think things in Pittsburgh are back at worst where they get better, but they kind of need to as well. Well, either way, they're going to be looking for their fourth coach since 1969. So I say that the Rooney's

are pretty good at finding coaches in general. Art Rooney, the second has not been proven. Well, we're going to want to pick up the pace a little bit. Yeah, because we also have a couple other things. Another coach getting the can. Kevin Petulow out as offensive coordinator for the Eagles. It comes as no surprise, but it did seem like at first that he was going to be sticking around because of the comments that Nick Siriani had and made.

but now he's out as OC and probably for the best because it turns out that all the shit that we've heard about AJ Brown, the Eagles this season was coming from Kevin Petulow himself. So they got the rat out of the building. They, I think Cliff Kingsbury is going to end up with a head coaching job. But if not, the Eagles should go after him. That just feels like the perfect fit for them. With a run for a scheme, Cliff Kingsbury loves his run, his run heavy offenses. He did the same, he did it in Arizona.

He did the same stuff over there in Washington. I think he would do great as the Eagles OC. It's just a matter of whether or not he's taking any other offseason. I feel like Cliff Kingsbury would have to settle for OC. But the reason, but with, with the head coaching candidates being so, slim. I see him being a head coach. But they should look at it. It's an option. Also, Mike McDaniel. I was just about to say McDaniel. I feel like that has to be, I know that Mike Warren be over at school.

I can Eagles are saying no, but I mean like, he's got a good offense. He would actually have Jalen Hertz run the damn ball. because, like, he didn't do that a ton this year. The Eagles tend to be at their best when Hertz is actually running it. But, CJ, who would you, what would your pick be if you were the Eagles? Honestly, I would go to Cliff Kingsbury just to spite the commanders, and I think he's a good O.C. I thought it was, sorry to cut you off. I thought it was interesting that Adam had said Clingsbury to start off with, but now I'm seeing it more and more of like, yeah, like go fuck yourself type of thing. Yeah, Petulah was expected to explore other opportunities, but apparently according to Nick Siriani, the doors left open for him to stay in Philly in a lesser role.

So we'll see what happens. I personally wouldn't. After that rule, after that news came out that he was the one leaking all that stuff to the press, he shouldn't hold the job again. So basically, whatever the heats on him, he just leaks internal drama. Like, that is a bitch move. That's really all that is. And as for Philly, well, yeah, it's about time they got rid of him is all. Like, that's pretty much it.

Like, this was the right choice. And honest to God, I think this was a Howie Roseman decision because Siriani did not want to fire him. Oh, yeah. But if you're going to bring in a new offensive coordinator for the love of God, let Howie Roseman do it. Because it has now been proven, Siriani cannot be left to his own devices. Yeah. Be careful with that,

because arranged marriages can be very hit or miss. What? I said arranged marriages can be hit or miss. If the GM is picking the coordinator for the head coach. Well, he picked Vic Fangio and Kellyn Moore. So I'm just saying. We're also talking about goddamn Howie Roseman.

I mean, let's be real here he's going to pick the perfect guy if it ends up being his choice I know it's just the you also brought coaches tend to be very territorial and if they don't like the guy and they don't get along with him then that can cause some problems oh yeah I get it but he brought in Stuyken and Gannon and he brought in Moran Fangio the ones that didn't work were Siriani hires so I mean I'm not going to lie man that's yeah we should probably move on to the next part of the show just because we're all right at almost 20 minutes.

Yeah, yeah. Well, we'll get to that part. Real quick, Dante Moore announcing he is staying at Oregon for one more season. So if you're the Jets, get fucked. That's my take on it. It's a great, I mean, it's a great choice for him. Oh, yeah. I just didn't think he was ready for the big, I don't think he was ready for the big league stage either way.

I mean, he was in, in the college football playoffs, he got, destroyed by L. I just don't think he's running. Long Island University. What? L.I.U. You mean Indiana? Yeah, that's what I said. L.I.U. L.I.U is Long Island University. You mean just I. Or you could just say.

Maybe I misspoke. Maybe you're not just going to get an L from I.O. Yeah. That's misspoke. But I, listen, I think it's a good, it's a good choice for him. They, he, there's so many, there are so many quarterbacks who went, uh, who registered for the draft and they definitely shouldn't have and they, they would have been better for it if they just waited a year. Um, and he's one of those guys who did not go in early. He didn't take the cheese and now, you know, he has another year to sort of develop and kind of build up that instinct of being able to play against, uh, tougher opponents. So I, I, I think this is a good choice for him. That being said, he's definitely not going to be the number one pick next year, not even close. But yeah, I think this is a good choice for him.

Well, for more, I think this was the right choice, obviously, you know, a state Oregon, another year developed. Whether you're the number one pick next year, you know, depends on how the other guys do. I know everybody's saying it should be Arch Manning, but we'll see if his turnaround at the end of Texas season was actually real. But as for the Jets, I'm going to say a nicer way I possibly can. Now, you're screwed. Like, what are you going to do now?

This is one of those weird drafts where the talent isn't the best. So I genuinely see no difference between picking at two and picking it at 10. So, and there's really no blue chip prospects in this draft outside Caleb Bounds, but he's a safety. So they don't really get value that high. So unless you want to take art. I'll reset too than be my guest, but I don't know, this is just a horrible situation. And there's really nobody worth trading up for us.

So trade back's not an option. Maybe you grab Ty Simpson with the other first round pick, but this is probably the Jets nightmare scenario happening in real time. I mean, the Jets are in the middle, they're in the middle of a tear down. So it seems like this is going to be a, this is going to get worse before it gets better. Oh, yeah. And I think the past few quarterback drafts have proven that taking a quarterback just because you need a quarterback is not a good idea.

If the Jets took Dante more, that kid wasn't ready anyways. So if anything, that's a good thing for the Jets. He wasn't ready. And it seems like it's a poison. It's such a cancer within the league as far as drafting goes, that if a team needs a quarterback and there's a consensus number one or top five pick, they're going to take him if he's there, which is stupid. Because if the kid can't play, he can't play.

Go find another pick. go find another player at a different position and then wait until that quarterback draft like 2004 and find your guy. But it's become such a problem in the NFL and teams are wasting a pick using three years trying to develop him, learning he doesn't, he can't play and then doing it again and you're wasting all this time. So you wonder why some of these bottomed out teams stay at the bottom. But they're wasting picks on quarterback so they know can't play.

it's kind of stupid. I'll expand on that too. I mean, if you're the Jets at this point, you build for that quarterback. You build what you have? You probably be here next year anyway. They still have a fuck ton of picks

like throughout the next couple of years. So I, I, like I, I'm not saying that, uh, you're wrong about your taking that the Jets are fucked. They just have to.

They're fucked anyway. They just, yeah, they're fucked anyways because of what they have. it just means they have to pivot that's all yeah but is there anyone really worth taking it too like is my point in this draft there's not and i will go to war with anyone who says otherwise like i will maintain there's not a difference between picking it two and ten it's one of those weird classes don't they have two first round picks though yeah they do they could use that that second

overall pick to at least trade back if if somebody would be willing to take it so again if you don't want that quarterback, which it looks like if it's not Fernando Mendoza, it's going to be nobody, then just trade back and maybe someone who really needs that elite edge rusher is going to trade up, something like that. This is also the Jets and that's smart. So, you know, the only other possibility is maybe Ty Simpson, but you can't reach for him to, too, they'd have to take him with their other first round pick. He's the only other quarterback who could go on the first round, but even still, I might

doubts about them. We'll get full fledged into draft season when we get there and Ciguel will have, we'll be able to talk plenty about all that once we get there. We're going to take a quick break when we come back. We'll get into our NFL divisional round preview. This is the Fulmeruski podcast. It may not have always showed it in the staff sheet, but you can see him making throws when he needs to make the throws. Back to back games where he has three touchdowns. Someone's got to get that six or seven spot. He's an elite wide receiver as a rookie. a lose-lose scenario for both sides. Welcome back to the Fulmobar Husky podcast.

Let's get into the divisional round. Start with the first game of the weekend. The Bills and the Broncos. This matchup opened up as Bills as one and a half point favorites, but now it's the Broncos favored by one and a half at home, over under's 45 and a half. I saw an interesting stat right before. we recorded.

And it was the Broncos this season against winning teams, or the Broncos this season when they let up 17 or more points to winning teams are 1 in 8. This season? Yep. You want to? Did they face nine winning teams this year? One and eight. I must have, I definitely butcher that stat.

Hold on. Hold on. Because they're four and two again. against playoff teams this year. So they've only faced six playoffs. Maybe I'm, maybe I'm, it was Sean Payton.

Maybe I, like, I definitely put you the shit out of that stat. Okay. All right. Let's, let's rewind. Let's rewind.

Let's take a breather and rewind. That was there. Um, look, well, um, and it was a lie too because the Jaguars put up 34. Um,

and one. So, all right, let's rewind. I've had two bad moments now on the show today. This is rough. The Jaguars put up 34 and the Broncos lost. Yes. Now, if anything, that would help your probably butchered statistics. Yeah, yeah.

I mean, they haven't allowed more than 17 points many times this season. The few times, of course, being like against the Giants, against the Cowboys. shit like that because those games were high scoring affairs. But this game, I mean, Broncos are at home, home field advantage, always tough to play in Denver. The bills, they were able to face their road playoff demons and beat the Jaguars last year. Josh Allen carrying the team on his back. Curious how healthy Josh Allen is, how much he's recovering from, again, beat to shit against Jackson. And, well, I mean, if the Jacksonville game is showing us anything,

it's probably a precursor of what's to come for Denver, because Denver is a much better defense than the bill or than Jaguars defense. But Josh Allen's still going to be carrying the team on his back. Fellas, what do we think? So I was earlier in this in the season, I was terrified of going to Denver as a Patriots. fan and I still kind of am, but when I look at how the Broncos have played since their by week, particularly their defense, I feel the same way about Bo Nix as I did all season long.

I think he's a good quarterback, not a great one. He's one who can make great throws when he absolutely needs to at the end of the game, and the defense keeps it close. But that's just the thing. The defense needs to keep it close. And the Broncos defense has not been the same. And their offensive line is elite, but it doesn't matter what Bo Nix can do if the defense can't hold Josh Allen and company to a certain number of points. So I'm, I think the Bills have a really good shot on the road in this game.

If there's any quarterback who can go on the road for an entire postseason against this particular, against this particular AFC playoff picture, it's Josh Allen's bills. He's the most seasoned quarterback as far as playoff experience goes in this entire playoff picture. And I give the bills the best shot to take this one. Better team versus better quarterback. Most of the time, the better quarterback wins. All right. I found the stat. This is the correct stat.

Here we go. All right. Bo Nix in his first two seasons, one and eight versus winning teams that score more. than 17 points. Wasn't this season. We're talking bo-knicks through the first two seasons. That's what it was. And the bills have scored 17 points and 14 out of their

17 regular season games this season. The Packers, though, that was correct. That was correct. That was their one win against a team that has scored more, a winning team that has scored 17 or more points. CJ. For some reason, I can see this game, a slog. It's going to be one of those games where the bill don't wake up until the second

half. And then Josh Allen, you know, once again, dances through the raindrops to deliver his wholly undeserving coach a win. Which has happened many times. Yeah, but the same thing. Now, it's not get me wrong. Well, the bills are incredibly shaky and they're very much a dance through the raindrops kind of team. So is Denver. Denver probably more so. I mean, I don't know anybody who thinks who would rather face Josh Allen than Bo Nicks. I mean, Denver's got a better defense, yeah, but Denver's, they're eerily similar to last year's chief's team, where a lot of their wins are just ugly cardiac down to the wire nail biters where it's like, all right.

Like, you know that the defense is ferocious, but the offense just doesn't scare you at all. and Bo Nix, you know, where you see him create, you know, do these clutch comebacks. Like, everyone's like, oh, hey, look at these cool throws for Bo Nix. Like, yeah, against garbage defenses, against garbage teams. Can you come back against, like, the bills? What really changed my perception of the Broncos was the Jaguars game. The Jaguars marched into mile high and beat Denver by two scores. The thing is, though, the Jags, I think.

Is Lawrence better than Allen? No. But is the team around him better? Arguably, yes. So I think this is going to be a weird game. I think it's going to be ugly until like the second half where then both teams start going back and forth. But if there's one thing Josh Allen can do, it's play hero ball. And he hasn't been burned yet. The raindrops haven't got him yet. I think he kind of lucks his way into another win. or should Denver just bad luck themselves to another loss thing on how you want to look at? These are two incredibly just odd teams to look at. I like Buffalo here just because of Allen's experience alone. Let's be clear as far as the Denver goes, their defense is good, but it's not as good as it was in the first half of the season. That defense has faded out so much.

And I will tell you that, like, it's not that anyone fears the broad. Broncos, like they don't fear Bo Nix. When they say they feared going into Denver, they fear that whole team as a whole. And the place, the head coach, the quarterback who can make throws if the game is close, the defense who can keep the game close. But how's the game, how is he the, how is Bo Nix going to make the right throws if the game isn't close? So that's, that's where I'm saying, yeah, I liked him earlier, but, you know, not feeling it anymore. Yeah, I feel like I've kind of hopped off the bow train at this point. Like, I still

like him, but I something about like just the way that this season has gone has been like, really considering them top 10, like, I just don't see it. Um, and honestly, like, if this gets into a shootout, I don't think that Denver's going to be able to keep up with Buffalo. Um, because most of these wins that they've had have been groggy low-scoring affairs. The bills don't tend to do well with those games. So I could see if it's a shootout, Bill's win, if it's not a shootout, Broncos. But I'm going to lean just for the pick's sake. I'm going to go Bill's.

Isn't it so weird, too, that that's what they do well in is the shootouts? Yeah. Isn't it the other way around? If you get into a shootout, you, If you get into a shootout all the time, usually you lose. But the bills are weirdly really good at winning those games. Yeah. I think the only other thing, really, if your Buffalo is just the amount of injuries that you're dealing with

and how is that going to affect you really. And also down a wide receiver again because Gabe Davis tore the shit out of his knee in that Jacksonville game. Yeah. Anything else that we want to. touch on from this game. I feel like we touched on it. This is going to be a big one. Yeah, this is pretty much it.

Oh, have you guys seen the memes of Haley Steinfeld being a Broncos fan? I have seen those. It's awesome. There's also her wearing a Seahawks jersey, too. It's great. And all the Broncos fans flaunting it, they don't realize they're acting like the ex-girlfriend

who got dumped. Yeah. Facts. night game, 8 p.m. Saturday night, Seahawks, 49ers. 49ers beat to hell without George Kittle. Seahawks are seven-point favorites at home,

over under's 44.5. I think week 18 was pretty much a precursor of what this game is going to be. I mean, credit, like, Credit Kyle Shanahan, credit to the entire team for getting here with all the adversity, all the bullshit they've had to go through. But the buck stops here. And the biggest thing for me is that the Seahawks have shown that even with Sam

Donald's worst game, they will find a way to win. So, yeah, is Sam Darnell going to need to perform still? Yeah, he's still going to need to perform. But I think that with the Seahawks, especially from Week 18, they're going to really attack on the ground game again. By the way, we touched on Fred Warner potentially. It could be back for playoffs, not activated for this week. But they did open the practice window, which, hey, you know what?

If the 49ers can get away, find a way to get the upset this weekend, then highly expect Fred Warner for the NFC championship game. But what are you guys' thoughts on this one here? This is one that I begrudgingly will have to say it's probably the easiest one to predict. As much as I don't believe in Sam Darnolds, I just think that 49ers team is way too depleted. And the rest of that Seahawks roster will be able to pick up Sam Darnolds. And he'll be able to make enough throws for them to win the game. It won't be a pretty game.

Yeah, week 18, like you said, Chris, is it's kind of a precursor to it. It's like the Seahawks are better, but they're like begrudgingly better. They're not one that you really look at as a Super Bowl contender. The Seaharl? So they have Sam Darnlett at quarterback. Okay. And that's the most important position on the field. This team's been nails all season long.

There's a reason why that they had the best Super Bowl odds. Vikings won 14 games last year. Look at how Darno performed in the playoffs. Great. And we've also. Maybe I'm being fine. I guess I'm being a little, if you win 14 games, you're a Super Bowl contender. I'll give it to you.

I just don't believe in them. They should win a Super Bowl because that's what the expectations should always be. But I don't believe in San Darnold, and I begrudgingly believe that they're going to make it to the NFC championship game. Because the 49ers are just too depleted to challenge the Seahawks at this point. So their defense is really good. Every offensive piece around Sam Darnold is really good. I think the quarterback has a choking problem.

And I think that'll eventually catch up with the Seahawks, whether that's in the NFC championship game or the Super Bowl, if they make it there, it's going to catch up with them. Can you tell me, do you see Sam Darnold hoisting a Lombardi trophy? No. Even me visualizing it in my head, it feels Photoshop. It's just, I don't see that. Sorry.

I don't see that happening. Look, I don't see it happening, but I feel like calling the Seahawks not Super Bowl contenders at this point of the season is, like, Sam Darl or not, I think that's pretty wild. Like, we, you can, we can, I'm, I'm not even saying that the Seahawks are going to make the Super Bowl, but I think it's just, I think it's a little harsh. That's all. I might be being harsh, but I'm, I'm a harsh guy. So I have expectations. I tell it how it is. If Sam Darnold proves me wrong, then I will show up on this show with egg on my face and say I was wrong in that I underestimated Sam Darnold.

But I need to see it because I can't even visualize it in my head. Hey, and it's same thing with a lot of other people. I'm not telling you you you're wrong for it either. Did you like how I reacted much calmer than C.J's Jordan Love Take from Tuesday? that was interesting CJ yeah well yeah nice job picking favorites there man

yeah yeah sure this is the time where you don't choose to act like a total whatever I'm sorry brother oh don't worry I'm waiting to go nuts I just haven't found anything worth going nuts over but you don't go nuts over Jordan Love

no I just I don't care enough you know honestly I don't even know if I wanted to Bain and we're just going to be like, okay, bro, whatever, and move on when I disagree with something just because, like, yeah, no. Caring these days is hard. Anyway. Forty-Hawks, what do you got? I'm getting there.

Damn. Anyway, long story. I remember the last time they played with the one seat and division crown on the line and how it was just an ugly, just slug-best, as most divisional games are, even though the Niners are, even though the Niners are depleted, even though the Niners just seem to lose another pound of flesh every game outside of Christian McCaffrey, which is weird. I think they're going to play Seattle close because once again, it's a playoff division game. That's just how these go. But winning in Lumenfield, a place that historically even when it was named CenturyLink, which was always a

cooler name, was always just, which was just always a tough place to play very loud. This is going to be the part where I think the Niners injuries come back to bite them. If they were a fully healthy team, like they had Warner, they had Bosa, they had Kittle, Ayukes on the field, not causing problems. Honestly, I might be leaning the Niners, but they're just too banged up. even if Sam Darnold turns into a pumpkin, I think the defense is just going to be enough to get them over the top. Give me the Seahawks.

Seahawks crossed the board. Amy looks like you wanted to rip in on something. No, everything CJ said is it's right on. If you're a 14 win team, you should be expected to be a Super Bowl contender. The thing is, the fact that a lot of people can't, just can't get past Sam Darnold. That says a lot about him. So another jab at their quarterback, but, you know.

And we'll see how it plays out this Saturday night. And you know what? Hopefully the two games we just talked about are just as good as the two games from last Saturday. We're going to step aside for a quick break. When we come back, we'll get into the Sunday slate for the NFL division round. This is the former podcast. It may not have always showed it in the stat sheet, but you can see him making throws when he needs to make the throws.

Back-to-back games where he has three touchdowns. Someone's got to get that six or seven spot. He's an elite wide receiver as a rookie. Truly a lose-lose scenario for both sides. The AFL has been gone for some time, Chris. I meant to say it. I was like in the middle of saying AFC and NFL. Yeah, I know.

All right, Ung. AFC division. It didn't like back in my day. Back in my day, they used to wear leather for helmets. Pat's Texans. Patriots are three-point favorites at home. Overrunners 40 and a half. I saw a great meme.

I meant to bring it up while we were talking about the Seahawks game, but it was Seahawks defense, Mike McDonald's Seahawks defense, and it was like, oh, we're going to beat you with precision. this and that, analytics, da-da, and the Texans defenses, line that shit up.

Which I could see that. I like it. I like it because that's what the Texans are. They are a hard hitting defense. Saw that last week or on Monday night against Pittsburgh. Texans really got the shit hands of the schedule here. Because, I mean,

I enjoy Monday night football for the wild card, but it shouldn't be happening. You shouldn't have a Monday night game for the wild card because you're automatically giving a team. The winning team that plays on that day, a disadvantage. Take the injuries, for example. Nico Collins and Christian Gonzalez. Christian Gonzalez is a full participant practice today, both going through concussion protocol this week. Nico Collins has a shorter amount of time and the earliest that he would be able to be active is Saturday.

And if you fail one day, then that resets the whole protocol. Christian Gonzalez, the earliest he can be his Friday. On top of that, Gonzalez did not get whacked in the head as bad as Nico Collins did. And he's already missed two. He hasn't shown up for a practice. So it's pretty much over. There's almost no way Nico Collins plays. Yeah.

And Gonzalez was a full participant today. Yep, yep. So you got that. I guess the other key to this game is can C.J. Strout, who's going to be able to hold on to the goddamn football? CJ Stroud, fumbling problem. Drake May, fumbling problem. What the fuck's going on here?

On top of that, it's supposed to be shit weather on Sunday. New England, baby, I love it. We got 50 degrees for the last three goddamn days, and all of a sudden we're hit with a wintry mix for this weekend. It's supposed to drop 50 degrees in the next 18 hours. What the hell, man. It's supposed to be caught. It's going to be.

When it's good degrees. Yeah. Well, as they say, if you don't like the weather in New England, go back where you came from. Yeah. I've lived here my whole life and I'm ready to move to Florida myself. So screw. Nah, I'll forever be in New England. But I think this game encapsulates what the Sunday slate is going to be.

shit weather cold. It's going to be a rough go for the visiting teams because it's a team from Houston and it's a team from Los Angeles that are on the road this week to some of the coldest places to ever be played or to ever play a football game. Now, we're going to talk about the Chicago game, of course. Chicago, by the way, they're expecting it to be zero degrees in terms of the wind chill. It's not going to be that cold in New England, but weather's still going to be a factor. So I think my big thing is who's going to be able to hold on to the ball the most or not lose the football the most.

I almost feel like the turnover battle doesn't matter because the Steelers just won the turnover battle and the Texans still won 30 to 6. It's pretty much just the fact that The turnovers that the Texans do create, they get points out every single time. It's like their defense is so ferocious, so borderline generational to the point where it becomes its own offense. They're making up for the deficiencies on the offensive side of the ball. It's like being the quarterback.

The quarterback is meant to be the position that really overcomes deficiencies on the team. But this is a rare instance where the defense is doing that. And before you move on to your next point, real quick, do you think that there's going to be a difference? Because, you know, we're talking about the Steelers defense. They're all right and all that. But do you think that it's going to be a difference with the Patriots defense? I was just going to get to that.

The Patriots defense is better than the Steelers. So the matchup is very interesting. What it's going to become is a middling quarterback against a very good to solid defense. against an elite quarterback versus, you know, an elite defense. Who wins? That's going to be very interesting. And since the game is played in New England, a dome team is going to another cold weather environment for the second week in a row. And defense does travel, but that's going to be a very, very interesting matchup.

and this is going to become a rock fight. It's going to come down to not just, not necessarily the turnover battle, but not allowing, not handing the other team points. If your turnovers turn into points, if you throw pick sixes or fumbles returned for touchdowns, this game is over because I think if Drake May can just hold on to the football, not turn it over, not give points, they win the game.

You should expect the Patriots to win this game regardless. The Texans are too one-dimensional. However, I am feeling more and more uneasy about this game, the closer we get to it, just because that defense is so good. And this does match the formula of past playoff teams that have beaten the Patriots in the past during their dynasty days, teams with a lesser quarterback, ferocious defense though in a really good fearless coaching mind to head in and and really punch new england in the mouth this is the type of team that used to beat them that being said you should still expect to win in the same way that you expected to win those games too so this will be an interesting one it's going to be a scary one probably the toughest test new england has had yet i'm very excited for this game very excited cj oh i've kind of feel like Adam here, man.

Like the closer we get, I'm just like, oh, yeah. And look, I want to, oh, I hate to admit it, but Drake May low-key has a fumbling problem. And I'm not going to lie. Are the fumbles his fault? No, not really, because he's getting blindside shots. And it's one of those things that if the Patriots were a little older and a little wiser, especially on, like, the offensive side of the line with, like, Will Campbell and Jared Wilson, I wouldn't be as concerned because there, I think there's Campbell,

Wilson is solid. I think he's better as a center, but Campbell's been very good, but they're still rookies. And that I think is going to be the difference maker. When Drake May, of course he's going to fumble the ball when he's just taking blindside shot after blindside shot. And he also threw a pick. This was against the Chargers.

But obviously not his fault. it was a tip drill that resulted in a circus catch. Well, lots how lot of his turnovers are. A lot of his fumbles have just been him getting blindside shots. A lot of the many, not most, but many of his picks have just been tip drills. But at the end of the day, where on the stat sheet does it say, but it wasn't his fault? It doesn't. So that's pretty much the problem.

This is a game where if you're the receiver, like digs or whoever, and may he, hits you in the numbers, then and you pop it up into the air, Houston's just going to snatch that ball out of the air. The defense is going to be, is going to be teeing off on him every time. And, May, I love you, but you got to hold on to the ball. Yeah, your fumbles really aren't your fault when your, when your young lines just, you know, getting their inexperience exposed, but you got to be better than that. Yeah. Can you, sorry. No, no, no. Go ahead, I'm sure. This will be very enlightening. Yeah.

So what needs to happen really is the problem is this Houston defense is swarming because they dominate the flat and the backfield. And the issue that came in the Steelers game is that they had way too much going under center, or rather way too much shotgun. Not enough nine-step drops. And I think they need to do a little more of that because what the Texans seem to be very vulnerable is allowing quarterback scrambles and deep shots. They have a tendency to on the second level allow that play, whether it's over the middle on the intermediate route or on a deep shot. Those are two spots where Drake May actually exceeds. and weirdly enough, Josh McDaniels and Drake May might have a spot where they can actually succeed there

because a couple of the Texans few weaknesses on their defense happen to be Drake May's strengths. Yeah, and to be fair, I believe Drake May is the second ranked quarterback when facing the blitz and put under pressure. So there's that. But what scares me, though, is Aziz all shy. And I know he's not as big of a piece of this Houston defense, but he is by far the dirtiest player in the league. Of course, don't call him dirty.

Then he'll act all tough and cry. Remember that? That was funny. But if May slides, that Al-Shayr is going to be going headhunting. And he's also the type that you have seen him like grab and twist arms or he'll twist ankles when you're down. So you've got to be very careful with that. but the more I think about it, I just, I'm leaning Houston here. Yeah, look at me up, Chris Koss.

I'm shaking my head. Fuck you. I'm just saying, like, this is one of those games where I'm thrown back to May's debut or that Houston defense ate him alive. Granted, it was his debut, and this is a very different team, but just, this is just a terrifying defense. and I think it's going to be a good game. But C.J. Stroud, who was struggling last year, also diced up the New England defense.

And I don't know, man. I think it's going to be an ugly game. And New England can win those ugly games. But I'm tilting Houston, honestly. Drake made through three touchdown passes in that game. And he was a garbage time. Two or garbage time. No, they weren't.

One was. Well, it was like at the very end when it was already like a three score game. So like I don't care. Also, we had two picks. Okay. He was a, he was raw. He was a rookie. That was his first ever start.

I guess, bro. I guess. I'm just saying, like, we're also talking about L and Stefan Diggs. And I mean, if you put, if Drake May puts up 21 points in this game, they win. That's, yeah, they should. Like, they didn't even do that against the Chargers. Like, I'm just, I'm just really afraid that. like, this defense is terrified.

That's really what it is. And if Houston can get any sign of life from its offense, they win. Like, if they even show a pulse, which that's easier send than done, apparently, for Houston, which I don't know why. But New England should win. They just, they have to capitalize the only way to beat the Texans defense. Misdirection. Keep them guessing. Roll out of the pocket, like attack them.

You have to just be able to say, hey, I'm not afraid of you. Let's go blow for blow. because Houston, kind of like those old Ravens' defenses, relies a lot on fear more so than actual adjustments. But they're feared for a reason. Let me just give this one last point, regard. And this is one last pro-patriots line. Okay. The Texans' interior offensive line is not just mediocre.

It might kind of suck. and I've made this point many times about if your pass rush comes from the interior, it's more devastating than if it comes from the edge. That is true, especially for New England, because Christian Barmore, when he has an alpha right next to him, which is Milton Williams, he is devastating. Milton Williams is the best player on this defense. And Robert Spillane is great at stopping the run.

if they get to C.J. Stroud, then the Patriots will win the turnover battle, whether that be through fumbles or interceptions forcing C.J. Stroud to do things he doesn't want to do. Looking for Nico Collins, who isn't there. I think that the Patriots front versus C.J. Stroud in that Houston offensive line is a really big mismatch. And if it weren't for this Houston defense, we'd be talking the most about that. So that's something to keep an eye on because it is advantage Patriots and not a small one. Yeah, true. Yeah, my picks the paths.

I mean, when I think about this weekend, I'm thinking, you know, Patriots are playing in New England weather and they almost never lose when a team comes in for some New England weather. Plus, this Texan's O line is trash. and not saying that New England's offensive line had the most spectacular week last week. I think CJ pointed that out pretty clearly. So I am very much expecting Drake May to have a lot of dudes in his face.

Pause. But I expect CJ Stroud to have the same thing. That's the thing. It's like they're like, like CJ mentioned last year, this is also two very different teams at this point. Yeah, I don't think I said that. Yeah. It's two very different teams, and I have a lot more faith in this version of the Patriots, obviously, than last year.

But give me motherfucking Drake May. Drake May, buy a billion. No, I'm kidding. This is probably going to be low scoring as well. Look, first from over the top shots. I think this is going to be a deep ball game. Yeah. That's an interesting take, considering.

the weather, but that's the way they have to do it. If they're winning, they have to do that. That's one of the only weaknesses in the Texans, in this Texans defense. Fair enough. Let's get to the 6 o'clock game, NFC divisional round. The Rams at the Bears,

cardiac freaking bears. Rams are favored by three and a half points on the road. Over under 48 and a half. The over under opened at 51. and a half earlier this week. So interesting that a lot of people are taking the under, which makes sense when you think about some of the statistics involved.

We're talking about a game that's going to be below freezing. Great chance that it's going to be in the negatives on Sunday. And especially when it gets dark in Chicago, God bless you. That's all it is. The Rams, Sean McVeigh, his career, when going to into Chicago, oh and two. But when I think of this Rams team, you know,

you can make the dome argument all you want. This Rams team can surprisingly play good in the cold, aka the game from last year against the Eagles, when all of a sudden a blizzard appeared halfway through the game. And the Rams offense slowed down. No, they ended up almost completing a comeback against the Eagles. So I don't think the weather is going to play The cold is going to play too much of a fact

I mean, it's probably going to slow down their offense because it's got to be zero fucking degrees. But is it going to be enough where the Bears defense can stop them? When I picked the Rams to win the Super Bowl in my bracket A couple of like literally last week, I have since had a little bit of time to think about it. And I also, I did see, I did see the performance the Rams gave in that Panthers game. I'm feeling very uneasy about that pick, not just because of the way the Rams have been playing in recent weeks in the past month, essentially,

but also because I'm starting to talk myself into the Bears making a deep playoff run. I really am. They have whole field advantage all the way up until if, if they get to see, Hawks, and again, I've already talked about the Seahawks and Sam Darnold. If Caleb Williams can continue playing clutch football, then who are we picking them against? And also the Rams with Matthew Stafford having a bit of a turnover problem in recent weeks. If the Bears have the best turnover margin in all of football, even better than he, Houston's.

Don't you think that's a bit of a mismatch in favor of the Bears? And the Bears, the Bears, a cold weather team hosting, again, I know that they played well that one time last year in the playoffs. Still, a dome team, a vertical passing offense that relies much more on the vertical passing game than they did last year. I'm, this is going to be a game for the ages, but I might. called bears on this one. I think the bears have a bit of an advantage here.

And this might be an ugly game. This is going to be a close game up until the end. And the bears play their best football at the end of the game. See, Jen. Oh, vertical passing offenses that like these air raid teams tend not to do well in the cold. I know you said, oh, they almost completed a comeback against Philly or whatever. Key word there is almost.

Let me put you on game, son. Matthew Stafford, in his last 10 outdoor games in the rain and the snow, has a 1 in 9 record, 16 touchdowns, and 11 interceptions. Hey, you did read the tweet I sent. This is stats from Adam Wright, by the way. Let's all give them props for this. And the Rams themselves last 10 games in Chicago alone, 2 and 8 record, negative 109 point different. differential. So moving on to the forecast for Sunday afternoon in Chicago is 20 degrees, 18-hour wind gusts, and a 55% chance of snow. Chris himself even said with wind chill, we're looking at a

zero on the old thermometer. Potentially. Potentially. Oh, yes. But still, no, you're right, you're right. So that's all well and good. But I have some news for the the Bears. You cannot start out slow because the Rams are not a team that gets up big and then takes their foot off the gas. The Rams are a team that keeps their foot on your neck until the clock hits zeros. You will not come back against them. It's not like Green Bay where they just, you know, where they just like went flat because they started playing conservative. They went with runs up the gut and dinks and dunks. That's not what the Rams do.

If the Rams get up that lead, you might be able to get a few touchdowns, but the Rams won't play conservative. If you want to win this game, you're going to have to start out hot, and that's what I think they do. I got the Bears winning. I don't know if it's an upset or not, but it feels like an upset just because the Rams are more established. Yeah, no, I would agree with that. And obviously the betting line is currently giving the Rams as the favorites right now.

I'm taking the Bears. Part of me is kind of fantasizing about Drake May and Caleb Williams in the Super Bowl. Bears Patriots, little Super Bowl 20 rematch. But, yeah, when you look at the statistics, as CJ mentioned, the cold. in Chicago. It's hard not to pick the Bears. It really isn't. And on top of that, too, the Rams defense,

pretty overrated. They have been shit this back half of the season. Even look at the game against Carolina, but let up 30 again. Now, I will say that if the Rams are at 30 by the third quarter with a slow start from the Bears, I don't think that they'd be able to make a fourth quarter comeback out of it. But it's the come.

Artiac Bears we're talking about. I mean, we've seen Caleb Williams do it so many times before that I do believe that if the Rams get to 30 in the third quarter and are up multiple scores, up big, then it's over. But the bears can keep them around where the Packers were last Saturday night. I think the Bears are going to pull away with a win. Let me also just, I just want to say for the record, I do want the record, I do want the Rams in the Super Bowl. I think the best, the best Super Bowl for the league, I think would be a Rams Patriots Super Bowl again. And I know people would be saying, well, why would we want a third, a third one of

these? But I'm just looking at the storylines. You have, you've already had talking heads for the past month going back and forth between Rams and Patriots on whether or not their quarterback is the MVP. having these two meet and be able to prove which one is the rightful MVP in a winner take-all game would be maybe the best thing for the sport in a very long time. Sign me up for that. The young kid trying to prove his worth versus the veteran who's just looking to eke out one last hurrah before he ends. his career. That, that would be football. So it's, I don't, I picked them, I picked them because I thought they would go, but now I'm

starting to feel uneasy because the Rams are starting to come apart at the seams. But I hope, I do hope they make it. Yeah. Because that would be fun. I'm going to counter on you. And on it, I think the real people's Super Bowl here is at this point of the playoffs is Bill's Bears. I think that's the real people's Super Bowl right now.

Explain. Well, the bills haven't won a Super Bowl ever franchise history. You know, you mentioned, you know, we can talk about the four straight Super Bowl that they went to and lost. That's a story. Yep. The Bears, I mean, it's the motherfucking bears. They haven't won a rank since 85 with that historic team. And the bears have been one of the epitomies of failure, frustration.

and depression since that. So it would kind of turn into sort of the, in 2003, when in Major League Baseball, when the Red Sox and Cubs were thought to be able to make it, to face each other in the World Series, and one of them was going to end their drought, kind of that kind of thing. Yeah, funny, you mentioned the Cubs too, another Chicago team.

Yeah, I still want Pats, Rams. I just think that's a sexy matchup, and that would feed family. families. Also, that vulnerable Ram secondary would mean better stats for Drake May. Very nice. CJ, who at this point of the playoffs, who's your pick? Who do you want to see in the Super Bowl? Yeah. Ideally, New England, but if they lose, I feel like that could really, you know, screw it up because most quarterbacks don't go back if they lose unless like, I think John Elway and Jalen Hertz did it. But that those are the accept.

and it's not the rule. Ideally, I'd like, New England Rams would be cool, but I don't know. I don't think New England's at a point where they could win the Super Bowl, so I low-key don't want them there. Okay, so who do you want in this New England, L.A., or the Super Bowl that you want to see?

I'm going to be honest. As long as New England wins, I don't care. This is not something I've given any thought to. It's more about who I don't want to win. I don't want the bills to win because even though I like Josh Allen, I think Sean McDermott's wholly undeserving. I really don't want Denver to win just because really, Bo Nix. I don't want the Bears to win because there are some people that think Caleb Williams is better than Drake May, even though he's in a situation. Adiq you can Royerize all you want.

I don't care what you think. Actually, no, I actually do. Your opinion actually matters a lot to me, unironically. Honestly, I'd be okay if the Seahawks winning because the Jets fans would be sad. And the Niners winning, imagine them winning after all those injuries. That'd be so cool. As much as I can't, sorry. No, you can go.

As much as I can't imagine Sam Donald winning a Super Bowl, seeing him win it, I would be happy for him. I don't hate him. I just don't think he can play. So anyone's saying I'm hating. I'm just telling it how it is. That would be really cool. And also, the Jets on the same year, they tear their roster down,

their old quarterback they drafted and winning the Super Bowl and maybe Super Bowl MVP, would just be so hilarious to me. That's just another chapter in their torture history. Somehow the Seahawks win the Super Bowl and Donald Hoyce-Lombardi, the city slash town of East Rutherford, New Jersey, will simply cease to exist. It will just fall into a chasm, never to be seen again. It won't say nothing ever happened there.

Like, it won't exist anymore because they will just be that. to spombin. All right. As all the scheduled content that we have for you today, anything else that we want to touch on before we end the show? Then we hit on everything. I'd say so. I still love Drake May regardless.
