Week 7 preview: NFC North hoss fight, C.J. Stroud vs. Jordan Love, Super Bowl rematch

Episode 26

Thursday, October 17, 2024 • Duration 01:06:03

Nate Tice & Charles McDonald join forces to preview some very juicy matchups ahead of an exciting Week 7 slate of NFL action. The duo start with the Houston Texans visiting the Green Bay Packers, as the two hosts tell the tale of one amazing quarterback who's being set up to succeed, and another great quarterback who's doing it despite the surrounding offensive system.

Next up is the Kansas City Chiefs taking on the San Francisco 49ers in a Super Bowl rematch, as Charles breaks down why people need to calm down about the Chiefs offense not putting up explosive numbers, and Nate explains the dilemma facing Kyle Shanahan about how to attack the Steve Spagnuolo defense.

The Baltimore Ravens head to Florida to take on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and Charles breaks down what makes the Ravens offense so unstoppable, while Nate explains how Baker and the Bucs can keep it close.

Finally, Nate and Charles deep dive on the NFC North showdown between the Detroit Lions and Minnesota Vikings. Sam Darnold had an off-game two weeks ago, and Charles wonders if that's just his floor if he's returning to the Darnold of old. On the other side of the ball, Brian Flores has to prepare for an absolute hoss fight against the bullying Detroit offense.

The hosts wrap up with a mailbag question on their favorite superhero movies.

WR trades galore: Cooper to Buffalo, Adams to New York & the great power rankings debate

Episode 25

Tuesday, October 15, 2024 • Duration 01:23:52

Nate Tice & Matt Harmon give their reactions to a HUGE day of news around the NFL before dishing out takeaways from Week 6 through the lens of their top ten power rankings.

The duo start with the news that Amari Cooper has been traded to the Buffalo Bills, as both are VERY excited about what Cooper can bring to the Bills offense. Davante Adams was also traded to the New York Jets in a slightly less exciting move, but one that will no doubt help the Jets offense. In other news, Russell Wilson will reportedly get his chance to start for the Pittsburgh Steelers, and Nate and Matt give their thoughts on why the (somewhat perplexing) move was made.

Later, Nate and Matt each made a top ten power rankings list separately, and they announce them live on the show before debating their biggest differences, including the Houston Texans, Green Bay Packers, Baltimore Ravens, Kansas City Chiefs, Minnesota Vikings and more.

Final 2024 season predictions: Super Bowl, MVP, more awards

Episode 13

Tuesday, September 3, 2024 • Duration 01:15:52

Nate Tice is joined by Charles McDonald and Matt Harmon to give their final predictions ahead of the 2024 NFL season, including awards like MVP and rookies of the year, division winners, Super Bowl champs and more.

The trio start off with their picks for Offensive & Defensive Player of the Year (one chalky and one dark horse), as Ceedee Lamb is the favorite, but Charles likes Nico Collins as a dark horse. For Offensive & Defensive Rookie of the Year, the trio discuss Caleb Williams, Drake Maye, Byron Murphy, Dallas Turner, Blake Corum and more. The hosts have three different answers for Coach of the Year and Comeback Player of the Year before moving on to MVP, where Matt likes C.J. Stroud to take a big year two leap, and Charles gets as chalky as you can get.

Later, Nate, Charles and Matt move on to their division winners and playoff teams, as they agree on every AFC division winner but disagree on some key NFC divisions. All three have the Kansas City Chiefs making the Super Bowl, but the NFC teams are all different. Nate gives the Green Bay Packers as his Super Bowl champ.

Thursday, August 29, 2024 • Duration 01:45:00

Nate Tice and Matt Harmon join forces to preview every team in the NFC. For each team they discuss win totals, give a player to watch and try to predict why each team could under- or over-perform expectations this season.

The duo start with the loaded NFC North, as Matt pushes back on Nate's Sam Darnold hype, Nate loves the Chicago and Detroit defenses and both are very optimistic about the Green Bay offense.

Next up is the NFC West, as Nate continues his praise of the Arizona offense, both express optimism about the Seattle Seahawks and concern regarding San Francisco and Los Angeles.

For the NFC East, Matt is completely out on the Washington defense but likes the New York defense a lot, and both reluctantly take the over for the Dallas Cowboys and comfortably take the over for the Philadelphia Eagles.

Last up is the NFC South, where Carolina still has a long way to go, New Orleans is a mess, Tampa Bay is Nate's team of the summer and the Atlanta Falcons are probably being overrated.

(2:50) NFC North: Minnesota Vikings, Chicago Bears, Green Bay Packers, Detroit Lions

(29:05) NFC West: Arizona Cardinals, Seattle Seahawks, Los Angeles Rams, San Francisco 49ers

Final predictions for every AFC team: Jets, Titans, Steelers & more

Episode 11

Wednesday, August 28, 2024 • Duration 02:13:10

Nate Tice and Charles McDonald join forces to preview every team in the AFC. For each team they discuss win totals, give a player to watch and try to predict why each team could under- or over-perform expectations this season.

After discussing why the Georgia Bulldog championship-winning defense has underperformed so far in the NFL, Nate and Charles dive into why they are hyped about the AFC South, as Nate predicts that all four teams will go over their win totals. They're especially curious about the Tennessee Titans and Indianapolis Colts.

The AFC West looks worse than it has in years past, and both expect the Kansas City Chiefs to get plenty of easy wins against their division rivals.

The AFC East is up next, as Nate thinks Drake Maye should start immediately for the New England Patriots, and that the Buffalo Bills have an underrated run game.

Finally, the AFC North looks to be an absolute bloodbath, as each team has major question marks that could slow them down, but the talent on all four rosters is too good to ignore.

(2:20) What happened to the national champion Georgia defense?

(10:30) AFC South: Tennessee Titans, Indianapolis Colts, Jacksonville Jaguars and Houston Texans

(51:05) AFC West: Denver Broncos, Las Vegas Raiders, Los Angeles Chargers and Kansas City Chiefs

(1:42:45) AFC North: Pittsburgh Steelers, Cleveland Browns, Cincinnati Bengals and Baltimore Ravens
