Don't miss
The panel’s Buffalo split crystallizes the episode’s uncertainty: Nick predicts the Bills miss the playoffs, while Chris picks Josh Allen to win the Super Bowl.
The brief
Dallas becomes the episode’s hinge point: the panel weighs Dak Prescott’s MVP case against the cost and logic of pursuing Maxx Crosby after moving on from Micah Parsons.
The predictions diverge quickly. Nick sends New England past Detroit, Chris picks Baltimore over Dallas, and Danny builds a field filled with surprise playoff teams.
Buffalo draws the sharpest disagreement: Nick predicts the Bills miss the postseason after seven straight appearances, while Chris ultimately picks Josh Allen to win it all.
Matt Leinart previews Indiana’s championship defense, evaluates Josh Hoover and Ole Miss’s Trinidad Chambliss, and describes the eligibility chaos reshaping college football.
The overtime debates widen to Jared Goff’s pressure play, Justin Herbert’s 0–3 playoff record, and the travel and injury questions surrounding the 49ers-Rams opener.
