Moser, Lombardi and Kane

0:00 - Let's preview tomorrow's Broncos vs Bills divisional playoff game with a man who's played in his fair share of NFL playoff games: Chad Brown!14:44 - Brett's nervous about the Broncos game tomorrow. Not because he thinks Denver will lose. But how could you not be?? Nerves are to be expected! And think about how much is at stake for both of these teams!Also, there are only 4 NFL games this weekend...but you better believe Moser...is still...gonna LAY IT DOWN! (and yes, I left in his grunting and breathing for all the podcast sickos who enjoy it)31:23 - It's our favorite part of the week DRUNK TAKES! We take clips from throughout the week, slow em down to half speed and it makes us sound like we're hammered!

0:00 - The Los Angeles Dodgers added ANOTHER high priced free agent yesterday. The rich keep getting richer. MLB NEEDS to put a salary cap in place. Period. It's seems more and more likely that the MLB is headed for another lockout sooner rather than later.Also, Bo Nix has legs and he knows how to use em, or whatever ZZ Top said. The Broncos offense needs to utilize his legs tomorrow so the offense isn't one dimensional. Keep Buffalo on their toes.16:18 - The Broncos offense is so up and down! They run hot and cold. That can't happen tomorrow. Start strong, come out of the gate flying and don't look back. We can't have an inconsistent offensive performance tomorrow.32:07 - Avs are hosting the Predators tonight. What are the keys to a Colorado victory?After that, Oregon QB Dante Moore has decided to return to Oregon for another year instead of declaring for the NFL Draft. Why? How much higher can his ceiling go?

0:00 - The narrative surrounding the game tomorrow has been almost exlusively about Josh Allen vs the Broncos Defense. But what about Bo Nix? What should the expectations be for Bo and the Broncos offense? 17:28 - Guys, calm down! Sean Payton was just joking around with Luca Evans. It's all good. ELE. Everybody love everybody. 35:30 - The Seahawks might not have Sam Darnold on tomorrow. How will Broncos Legend Drew Lock look in his place? Also, Brett's innocuous question about the playoffs turns into a "hey remember this guy?" session about the '85 Bears.  

0:00 - What's the blueprint for a Denver victory over Buffalo this Saturday? We previewed the game with our ESPN Broncos Insider Jeff Legwold.13:35 - In June 2024, the Dallas Mavericks were in the NBA Finals! Now, they're at the bottom of the barrell. How the mighty have fallen. As long as we live, we'll never understand the Luka Doncic - Anthony Davis trade.After that, what's next for Mike Tomlin? Will he return to coaching? Should he? Or should he ride off into the media sunset and become a commentator/analyst?33:42 - According to Shams, Jokic's recovery is going very well. He could be back sooner than expected. Unlike all of us on the show, Jokic is a fast healer.

0:00 - The Nuggets keep finding ways to win without Jokic, and they did it again last night in Dallas. From here on out, we don't want to hear any more excuses. Denver has proven they can win games with whoever is able to lace em up on any given night. "Oh, they lost because they were missing [insert player name here] isn't an acceptable excuse any more, and that's a good thing.17:07 - We're making a call to the bullpen! DMac out, Raj in!The Bills Mafia got mad at us online for suggesting that the key to a Broncos victory is stopping the run. Raj dug up some numbers, and low and behold: when James Cook rushes for less than 100 yards, the Bills usually lose.32:26 - Jamal Murray is reaching new heights. He's even surpassed "Playoff Murray" or the so-called "Bubble Murray." 

0:00 - Brett Kane is fighting the Denver Plauge, so DMac is back in studio to drive the bus.Second night of a back-to-back, no Jokic, no problem. The Nuggets beat Dallas last night in Dallas and they're now #2 in the West. This stretch of non-Jokic games has gone better than any of us could've predicted or imagined, and it's awesome.15:46 - Did Moser actually do some research into Saturday's Broncos game?? Did he look something up and then draw a conclusion based on what he found?? Well butter my butt and call me a biscuit.35:40 - We tweeted something that angered Bills Mafia. They've staged an electronic attack on us that we haven't seen since the Greeks and Panathanaikos fans this summer.

0:00 - On Saturday, we have the Broncos vs Bills playoffs rematch! Why will this year's game be different from last year's? Why do the Broncos stand a chance this time around?13:24 - What's the deal with Buffalo, NY? Why is the Bills Mafia a thing? Why would humans voluntarily take shots of schnapps out of a bowling ball then jump through a folding table in -50 degree weather with windchill of -100?32:01 - Yesterday, Sean Payton identified and debunked The 3 Myths of Playoff Football. 

0:00 - Are the Avs getting healthier? Or did they catch the same plague that we all did? The Avs actually have an extended bit of rest before they host Nasvhille on Friday. How are they using the extra time off? Avalanche Head Coach Jared Bednar answered all our burning questions this morning.18:02 - We need help! Let's make a call to the bullpen. Darren "DMac" McKee (who puts the D in PHD) taps in for a sick Brett Kane.31:45 - Vic Lombardi sat down for a one-on-one interview with Western Conference Player of the Week Peyton Watson yesterday.

0:00 - The Jokic-less Nuggets won AGAIN! This is not how we saw these games going, but in a good way! Peyton Watson is having himself a month. His play in January has been fantastic. You know who isn't feeling well? Poor Brett Kane. He barely survived the Appetizer then had to leave the building. The Plague comes for all of us eventually.17:42 - Did Luca Evans kick Sean Payton's dog or something? Sean really has a bone to pick with Luca "My Name is Luca" Evans for some reason. He got after Luca again yesterday. Do we care about how he treats Luca? Is it "real" or is it playful?36:07 - Peyton Watson is absolutely playing himself into a contract extension with the Nuggets. No question. But the problem is...can they afford him? Do they want to go into the aapron to keep him? If they don't, what are their options?

0:00 - OT and Shootouts are not kind to the Avs. Anything after the 3rd period is not Colorado's friend.After that, Vic may have found a good answer for his question about why injuries are more common across all (most) sports these days.18:09 - During Saturday's Broncos vs Bills divisional clash, when will you know if the Broncos can win? What will be the sign(s) that they'll win or lose?>32:20 - George Paton signed a 6-year contract back in 2021, and he'll be due for an extension next year. EXTEND HIM. Aside from a couple blunders, his resume is stellar. The good far outweighs the bad, even when the bad is Russell Wilson.

0:00 - The Avs lost a game at home! We're not used to seeing them take an L at Ball Arena. It's one game, and things are still fine. The panic button is still stashed deep in the basement under lock and key.Also, Steve Kerr said injuries are more common in the NBA these days because the pace of play is WAY faster than it used to be. Nuggets legend Dan Issel disagrees.17:44 - Another Gucci bag bites the dust. Jordan Seaton is hitting the transfer portal, and will depart from CU. The Buffs didn't have many good players last year, and one of the few ones they had is gone. Deion, CU, and the new Athletic Director need to take a good long look in the mirror and decide what they want to be.32:37 - Bo Nix is on his rookie contract right now. The Broncos are getting him for a steal! If the Broncos win the Super Bowl this year, will they have to pay Bo immediately? He's gonna secure the bag eventually. Will that timeline change based on his success?

0:00 - The Avalance lost to the Maple Leafs in OT last night at Ball Arena. We're not used to seeing the Avs take home Ls! It's been a while. 15:48 - The Steelers got embarrassed last night in the final NFL Wild Card playoff game. Houston didn't look much better, but their offense made the plays they needed to. Iis it time to move on from Mike Tomlin? Is it time to move on from Aaron Rodgers? Heck, will Aaron Rodgers even be playing football next season?33:05 - The Broncos are a better team overall. But the Bills have the better quarterback. In any given scenario, who has the edge: a better team, or a better QB?

NFL Wild Card weekend is (almost) in the books. What are Adam Schefter's takeaways? Will Matt LaFleur have a job in Green Bay next season? Why do Ben Johnson and Matt LaFleur have beef? Was it unprofessional for that Jacksonville reporter to console Liam Coen in the postgame press conference? Let's pick Shefty's brain on all of it.

0:00 - NFL Wild Card weekend is (almost) in the books. What are Adam Schefter's takeaways? Will Matt LaFleur have a job in Green Bay next season? Why do Ben Johnson and Matt LaFleur have beef? Was it unprofessional for that Jacksonville reporter to console Liam Coen in the postgame press conference? Let's pick Shefty's brain on all of it.19:19 - Avs are hosting the Leafs tonight at Ball Arena! What are the keys to an Avs victory?Also, can we get Moser to call tonight's game using an Old Timey announcer voice?34:30 - What's your top priority: watching the Broncos playoff game this Saturday? Or going to the Stock Show with your Mother in Law?

0:00 - The stage is set. The Broncos will host the Bills on Saturday in the Divisional Round. Denver's out for revenge, baby. They got straight up embarrassed last year in their playoff game in Buffalo. Can they flip the script this time around?10:29 - This game vs the Bills will come down to the last possession. No question. Which scenario would you rather have: Broncos defense oneeds to make a stop to secure the win? Or Broncos offense needs to drive down the field and score to secure the win?28:24 - In these Jokic-less games, Zeke Nnaji has looked like a servicable rotation piece. He's looking like the NBA talent we've always hoped he could be. Does this mean Adelman will keep using him? Or does it mean he's increased his trade value as the deadline gets closer?

0:00 - It's official! Next Saturday, the Broncos will host the Bills in the Divisional Round. It's a rematch of last year's Broncos playoff game. How do we feel about the Bills this time around?21:16 - Wild Card weekend did not disappoint! It rarely does. I hope you spent the whole weekend on your tuchus watching football. 34:48 - The Jokic-less Nuggets beat the Milwaukee Bucks last night! Somehow, this scrappy squad keeps finding a way. 

0:00 - Chad Brown joined us to break down last night's CFP game, preview tonight's Oregon vs Indiana game, and to delve into NFL Wild Card weekend. 13:56 - There's a stacked NFL playoff slate this weekend which means it's time...to LAY IT DOWN!(side note: I used to edit out Moser's grunting and breathing from the podcast, so there wasn't a weird long gap of quasi-silence. But it turns out, you sickos enjoy maximum Mose noises. So I'll always leave them in from here on out. Lesson learned)34:13 - It's our favorite part of the week DRUNK TAKES! We take clips from throughout the week, slow em down to half speed and it makes us sound like we're hammered.These are Drunk Takes from the Mosey's Vault. Some of our favorite times we we sounded hammered throughout 2025. 

0:00 - Not only did Josh Manson have a Gordie Howe Hat Trick last night (goal, assist fight)...but he was a fight away from having a DOUBLE Gordie Howe Hat Trick. As far as we can tell, that's never happened before in NHL history.13:16 - The NY Football Giants need a new head coach...did Jaxson Dart drop a hint about their coaching candidates? The internet lip readers seem to think so.Also, the Cleveland Browns need a new head coach. Their starting QB (for now) is Shedeur Sanders. So you KNOW someone's gonna bring up the elephant in the room...should the Browns hire Deion as their next head coach?30:41 - Nuggets are back at home tonight hosting the Hawks. What are the Keys to the Game?After that, Erik Johnson shamelessly, blatantly, and intentionally dropped a GLORIOUS s-bomb on the Avalanche postgame show at Colorado Social

0:00 - Avs needed a get right game and they got one. Boy, did they EVER! An 8-2 beatdown of Ottawa that included 2 separate heavyweight fights. Good work, boys. 16:33 - Miami beat Ole Miss last night which means...an SEC team will not with the college football championship this year. It's official: ENOUGH with the SEC bias. "It just means more," huh? Well it didn't seem to matter much this year. 36:46 - Let's preview all the matchups from a stacked NFL Wild Card weekend that kicks off tomorrow. Brett & Mose developed a new system to evaluate QBs: guttural sounds. 

0:00 - Our Broncos Insider Jeff Legwold joined us to preview Wild Card weekend, and discuss the firing of Mike McDaniel and what's next for Miami.18:35 - If you ask 10 Broncos fans who they want to face in the Divisional round, you'll get 10 different answers. Why is that? Why can nobody decide on a favorable matchup for Denver?34:01 - Trae Young wanted out of Atlanta, and he specifically chose to head to...the Washington Wizards? Huh?

0:00 - The Nuggets won AGAIN last night, on the road, in a hostile enviroment, with no Jokic. The biggest positive takeaway from this East Coast road trip has been...Jamal Murray. He's absolutely stepping up to lead this depleted roster.14:10 - The Avalanche power play is still a problem...but the penalty kill is really good. They have half of their special teams woes figured out.Mid-segment, the news broke that the Dolphins have fired Mike McDaniel. Is John Harbaugh taking his talents to South Beach?32:22 - All season long, Brett has questioned whether or not the Broncos' method of winning games is "sustainable." Well, they're the 1 seed in the AFC. Clearly it was sustainable. Why? What made it sustainable?

0:00 - Down, but never out. The depleted Nuggets wrapped up their East Coast road trip by beating the Celtics in Boston! How da ya like them apples?? Looking back on the last few games, what have we learned about this Nuggets team, and more specifically, the bench?17:15 - Lots of NFL teams are interested in hiring Vance Joseph to be their head coach right now. He has a whole slate of interviews lined up in the bye week. Let's be honest...the Broncos climbed to the AFC 1 seed on the back of the defense. Not the offense. So, could this team survive losing VJ? Or would that be a big blow?35:12 - The CFP rolls on tonight! It's Ole Miss taking on Miami. Who are you rooting for? Do you have a vested interest in either team? 

Didn't get enough of the Moseys over the past few days?? Not sure how that's possible! But if you're still craving more Moseys insanity, here's the recap of the 2025 edition. It got scrubbed from the podcast over the summer, so I'm bringing it back.Take a walk down memory lane, guided by our favorite British fill-in traffic reporter, Vic D. Full disclosure, I had to edit out one song from the "singing" category for copyright reasons. So you all will have to sing I Keep Forgettin (Russ Ain't Here Anymore) on your own. I trust you all to sing better than we did.

Welcome to the 2026 Mosey Awards. Every year, we hold an Awards Show to honor all the dumb, stupid, terrible things we've done over the past year. This year's edition did not disappoint. Just when you thought we couldn't get any stupider, we found a way. Thanks for another great year of Moser, Lombardi and Kane, everyone. Happy New Year!

0:00 - The Avs just returned from a 3 game road trip out East. They won one, and lost back-to-back games in regulation. Plus, Landeskog got injured and will miss some time. All things considered, how is Avalanche Head Coach Jared Bednar feeling about his squad right now?Plus, let's get Coach's thoughts on a particularly loaded Moseys category. After Coach, the next Moseys category is: Best? Worst? Sexual Tension.21:00 - The Nuggets are FINALLY on the last game of their marathon East Coast road trip. Tonight, they face the Celtics in Boston?After that, we still have so many awards to give out! Next Mosey Categories: Mispronunciation, Best Moser Rant, (Mostly) Vic Not Listening.36:16 - Let's wrap up a long, fruitful, 2026 Mosey Awards. The final categories are We're All Professionals Here, Best Drunk Take and then...the highly coveted Ed Sprinkle Lifetime Achievement Awards, where we lift one of our clips into the proverbial rafters. It's essentially our version of a jersey retirement. 

0:00 - The Avs lost back-to-back games in regulation, and we don't know how to handle it. It's been ages! Also, some good news: according to Shams Charania, Jokic is making great progress in his injury recovery, and he could be back later this month.Next Moseys categories: Worst Analogy, Let's Not Get HR Involved16:24 - Turns out, someone snatched the trademark for both "Las Vegas Athletics" and "Vegas Athletics"...which means the ACTUAL TEAM isn't allowed to use them.Next Moseys categories: Worst Prediction, Worst Question That May or May Not Be a Question31:04 - David Webb, the QB guru wunderkind, is being courted by lots of NFL teams right now. He could get hired as an OC or even a head coach! Both Webb and Vance Joseph might leave Denver and move up the NFL ladder.Next Moseys categories: Worst Treatment of Each Other, Huh??

0:00 - Man, we're not used to this feeling. The Avalanche lost their second straight game in regulation! They've doubled their regulation loss total from last year in the first 6 days of January. Even still, it's not time to panic YET. The Avs are still in a fantastic situation.It's Day 2 of the 2026 Moseys, our annual awards show honoring all the worst stuff we did in the previous year. Today's first categories are: Nailed It and PHRASING!20:42 - The NCAA transfer portal is wide open, and there's more and more insanity with each passing day. It's like the Wild West out there. The latest example: Washington Huskies QB Demond Williams entered the portal 4 days after signing a new deal to return to Washington for another season.Next Moseys Category: Worst Toss to Break34:52 - Do you have any specific concerns about the Broncos heading into the playoffs? Don't just say "the offense." SPECIFICALLY, what are you concerns?Next Moseys Category: Vic and Moser vs Technology 

0:00 - How did the Nuggets pull off the upset last night? Vic said it best. Effort trumps talent.Next Moseys categories: Best/Worst Caller, That's Not My Name.19:32 - Which AFC opponent would be the best matchup for Denver in the divisional round? Is it the Bills? Maybe the Chargers?Next Moseys categories: Worst Accent, Worst Treatment of a Spouse.36:06 - Moser's in Tampa today for Avs vs Lighting. Let's get a quick preview of the game tonight.Then, let's wrap up Day 1of the 2026 Mosey Awards with 2 final categories: Vic Rant, and Worst Tribute to a Recently Deceased Beloved Celebrity.

0:00 - That was the most predictably unpredictable win by your Denver Nuggets yesterday. Credit the young guns, man. They all stepped up under the bright lights of the P'Cock. What an upset over the (fully healthy Embiid-led) 76ers in Philly.Next Moseys Category: (Mostly) Vic vs Stats.14:24 - We have an epic football-watching weekend coming up. Two days of CFP games, followed up 3 days of NFL playoff games. Strap in. Crack some beer. Don't both leaving your couch from Thursday-Monday.Next Moseys Category: Worst Treatment of a Guest.31:45 - So many Moseys to give and so little time. Let's give out TWO awards this segment: Worst Family Feud Answer and Worst Analysis.

0:00 - The most predictably unpredictable win EVER! The Nuggets always pull these crazy games out of their hat. In Philly, second night of a back to back, everyone either hurt or resting...and you beat a fully-healthy 76ers squad. One of, if not the greatest, Nuggets win of all time.Next, it's our favorite day(s) of the year. The Moseys are back. It's our annual awards show where look back on all the stupid things we've done in the past year. First category: Worst Bodily Function.18:14 - Of all the AFC teams that the Broncos could face in the divisional round...is there one that you'd prefer? Is there a matchup that best suits the Broncos?Next Moseys category: Worst (Best) Use of the Dump Button.34:38 - The NCAA Transfer Portal is open, and already, all hell has broken loose. That didn't take long.Next Moseys category: Worst Live Read. 

It's Black Monday aka one of Schefter's busiest days of the year. And yet, he still carved out a few minutes for us. What does Schefty think of the head coach firings so far? What are his thoughts on the NFL's playoff picture, which is finally set in stone?

0:00 - It's Black Monday aka one of Schefter's busiest days of the year. And yet, he still carved out a few minutes for us. What does Schefty think of the head coach firings so far? What are his thoughts on the NFL's playoff picture, which is finally set in stone?14:22 - The Vegas Raiders locked up the #1 pick in the NFL draft then fired Pete Carroll. Are they going to draft Fernando Mendoza? Also, no rest for your Nuggets! They play again tonight in Philadelphia. What are the Keys to a Nuggets bounce-back victory? 33:27 - The Broncos locked up the AFC's 1 seed and secured a first round bye. What are their plans for the bye week? How is it different from the regular in-season bye week?

0:00 - Are you satisfied with yesterday's Broncos win? A win is a win AND they secured the AFC's 1 seed. Or did you want to see more from the offense? Do style points matter?20:33 - Let's take a look AROUND THE NFL! The last weekend of the regular season never disappoints, especially the Sunday Night affair between the Ravens and the Steelers.38:06 - Which Broncos players were in the groove yesterday? Was anyone on the offensive side of the ball in the groove?Also, has Moser gotten an update on Landy's injury yet? Why are NHL teams so vague with "upper body" or "lower body," etc? Why don't they ever explain what's actually going on?

0:00 - It's officially official. Your Denver Broncos are the AFC 1 seed. They have a first round bye, and the road to the Super Bowl runs through Denver, Colorado. Stop me if you've heard this before...the defense was stellar yesterday, but the offense looked a bit anemic. Did you want to see more from the offense against the SuperChargers JV squad? Do style points matter? Or do you not care about any of that because A WIN IS A WIN IS A WIN and the 1 seed is locked up, baby!22:37 - The Avs lost their 3rd regulation game of the season, but that wasn't the worst part. Gabe Landeskog went crashing into the net, then left the game with an injury. THANKFULLY, it doesn't look like another knee injury.34:22 - Aaron Gordon and Christan Braun returned to the Nuggets lineup yesterday, and they lost to a 10-win Brooklyn Nets squad. In the postgame, Coach Adelman was less than pleased with the effort, to say the least.

0:00 - The Nuggets are running out of healthy guys to put on a basketball court. Their supply is dwindling. It's time to start utilizing DaRon Holmes. Brett is concerned they'll use him in the wrong position like Malone did with Zeke Nnaji for years. But Vic says...what choice to they have?12:01 - Broncos vs Chargers is a playoff game. Period. No two ways about it. If the Broncos win, they advance to the divisional round. That's essentially a playoff win. It doesn't matter how many players the Chargers are resting. Denver NEEDS to think of this as a playoff game. 30:35 - It's our favorite part of the week DRUNK TAKES! We take clips from throughout the week, slow em down to half speed and it makes us sound like we're hammered. 

0:00 - We were treated to a delicious slate of CFP games on New Year's Eve/New Year's Day. What did we learn from those games?19:44 - What does Chad Brown think about the CFP so far and the overall state of college football? Does he agree with Brett and Vic that Bama, and the SEC overall, are frauds who are propped up by years of previous success?39:50 - The Nuggets are running out of warm bodies to put on a basketball court. So, that being said...what are they Keys to a Nuggets victory tonight?

0:00 - Georgia is out of the CFP. Ohio State got bounced. Bama got DEESTROYED by Indiana. What an insane 2 days of college football. So much for the mighty SEC. Maybe it doesn't actually mean more after all.16:39 - The Nuggets hadn't suffered enough injuries, so let's pile on another! Jonas Valanciunas tweaked his calf on NYE, and he'll be re-evaluated in 4 weeks. Sheesh. 60% of Denver's salary cap is now out of the lineup.34:58 - The Avalanche scored 4 goals vs the Blues...BEFORE THE FIRST TV TIMEOUT OF THE GAME. That was a truly dominant performance on New Year's Eve at Ball Arena. And the best part? They did it against Jordan Water Bottle Binnington. Happy New Year!

0:00 - Moser's having trouble getting excited for Broncos vs the JV Chargers squad. By all accounts, the Broncos should SMASH them. If they do, it's what's expected. If they don't, we'll be disappointed. If they lose...I don't even wanna go there. So how can we get PUMPED FOR THIS GAME??19:11 - Every 2 years, Moser looks at the full slate of events in the upcoming Olympics and deems which ones are worthy and which ones aren't. Spoiler alert: most of them aren't. Let's dig up some memorable Olympic rants from the past.Next, both the Avs are Nuggets are playing tonight! This calls for a double diparoo Keys to the Game. 34:00 - As the CFP continues tonight and tomorrow, what are we expecting to see? What do we hope to see? Did the committee "get it right" with the teams they selected? Also, if a team loses and makes an early exit, do you think they shouldn't have been there in the first place? Do you follow that school of thought?

0:00 - One final Avs game in 2025! How's Jared Bednar feeling about his squad? On Monday in his postgame interview, he said he was concerned about the Power Play. Why? Can we expect to see Logan O'Connor any time soon? And most importantly, which member of the morning show would Bednar NOT want to see his daughter date? 20:53 - Against all odds, Vic is embarking on an impossible mission. He's determined to reach his goal, even if his body isn't built for the task. 34:29 - RIP MTV 3 even though it hasn't had any M for like 20 years at this point. We'll miss seeing 24 straight hours of Ridiculousness. (btw the "Real" MTV song Moser had me to play was "Lay It Down.")After that, how much will you judge David Adelman based on the non-Jokic games over the next month? 

0:00 - Alright folks, let's be honest. What are REASONABLE expectations for the Nuggets without Jokic? Remember, he'll be out for at least 4 weeks, and the Nuggets are missing 3 other starters. So REALISTICALLY what should we expect to see while Jokic is out?20:45 - What are your expectations for the Broncos in the playoffs? Do they need to make the AFC Championship game? The Super Bowl? Would you be satisfied if they secure the AFC 1 seed, earn a bye week, then lose in the divisional round? Where's the bar?35:38 - We're looking forward to all the CFP games coming up, but for the wrong reasons. Is there anything better than hate-watching college football? Most of the hatred comes from the selection process. Somehow, there's still no consistency in how the teams are chosen.

0:00 - We can speculate all we want about how good or bad Jokic's injury is. But none of it matters until we get the MRI results back. The rumors are just that: rumors.14:43 - FINALLY! MRI confirmed no structural damage to Jokic's left knee. It was a hyperextension injury. He'll be re-evaluated in 4 weeks. That doesn't mean he'll be back in 4 weeks. He'll be re-evaluated. So the Nuggets will be without him for at least a month, maybe more. Still, that's really good news considering how bad his injury looked yesterday.31:45 - 4 weeks minimum without Nikola Jokic. The Nuggets will need to adapt and re-invent themselves. David Adelman, time to earn your stripes as a coach. Show us how deep the playbook goes. 

0:00 - We're crossing our fingers, toes, tongue, anything that's crossable and hoping for good news regarding Nikola Jokic's injury he suffered last night. He definitely hurt his knee, but no word yet if there's any structural damage. No matter what, Jokic will miss some time. How will the already depleted Nuggets make due without him?15:30 - Now that the Chargers are resting starters vs the Broncos on Sunday, including Justin Herbert, you HAVE to lock up that AFC 1 seed. But here's an interesting question...if the Broncos get the 1 seed, have a first round bye, then lose their divisional round game...are you okay with that? They didn't win a playoff game, but they did technically make it past the first round. 33:58 - The NFL released their list of finalists for the 2026 Hall of Fame class. As always, we agree with some of them, disagree with others, and aren't sure about some as well. 

0:00 - Last night, Nikola Jokic left the game with an apparent knee injury he suffered in the 2nd quarter. Hopefully, it's nothing structural and he just suffered a bone bruise. We won't know anything until Joker undergoes a full evaluation with an MRI. As we await the results...we imagine/try not to imagine a world without Jokic on the court.16:35 - Yesterday, Jim Harbaugh announced that he will rest Justin Herbert and other starters TBD vs the Broncos on Sunday. The AFC #1 seed is now on a SILVER PLATTER for Denver. All they have to do is beat the JV San Diego Superchargers of Los Angeles AT HOME, and the crown is theirs.34:09 - The Avs grinded out another grimy win vs the LA Kings last night. They're continuing to prove they can win all sorts of games, including gross ones where they power past mistakes. Speaking of power past mistakes, Bednar said he's concerned with the lack of production on the power play.

Your Denver Broncos sit atop the AFC West for the first time since 2015! KC's reign of terror is officially OVER. What does ESPN's Adam Schefter think about the NFL's playoff picture with one game remaining in the regular season?

0:00 - Your Denver Broncos sit atop the AFC West for the first time since 2015! KC's reign of terror is officially OVER. What does ESPN's Adam Schefter think about the NFL's playoff picture with one game remaining in the regular season?14:09 - The Avalanche and the Nuggets both play tonight, so we need a double diparoo KEYS TO THE GAME. This one turned into, quite possibly, the longest Keys to the Game on record. It was bordering on a triple Keysaroo. 30:52 - Did the Broncos with the AFC West because they're the best team? Or because the Chiefs took a step back? If the Chiefs were still the Chiefs, would the Broncos still have clinched the West? What do we say? What do the national pundits say?

0:00 - The COLORADO WAGOOOONNNNNNN is still rolling at full speed! But lest we forget...Moser committed betrayal of the highest order by recording another song. He cheated on our program. Plain and simple. 16:05 - The Broncos didn't play this weekend, so we all got to watch football without a care in the world! Let's recap everything that happened and take a look Around the NFL.33:06 - Nick Wright is finally coming around on something. He's changing his mind. It took him WAY TOO LONG to do it. Are we gonna let him join the club? Or is he still on the outside looking in?

0:00 - It's been 84 years...but he's back. Brett Kane has finally made his glorious return to Altitude Sports Radio. Does he remember how microphones work? Does he remember how to do radio stuff?15:27 - Brett's been gone for a little over a month...and honestly, nothing changed while he was gone. 33:55 - Moser was about 40 minutes late to his own radio program this morning, because his good ol' jalopy was giving him serious trouble. Moser vs Car Issues is one of the great underrated rivalries in sports.

0:00 - Chad Brown joins the program to talk Broncos vs Chiefs, and how to walk the tightrope of seeing and respecting the results in the Win/Loss column while also being aware of how many of those wins came off of close shaves, and wondering how sustainable that is.16:16 - The Nuggets won in OT last night over the Timberwolves, and they did it without three of their starters. If Cam Johnson is out for longer than 4-6 weeks, should the Nuggets try to shore up their roster? How would they even go about doing that?33:01 - Believe it or not there are Broncos in The Groove after last night's game. Vic, Mose and Mat discuss who's groovin' and one last time before Brett Kane returns, Mat "Lucky Louie" Smith LAYS IT DOWN.

0:00 - Vic and Mose are BLINDSIGHTED by Mat Smith as Smith tells 'em Jokic was lowballed last night by one Charles Barkley at half time...in the middle of a game where Jokic put up 56 and a triple double. When will the disrespect end???14:09 - The gang discusses the finer points of Broncos/Chiefs and how the Broncos were able to gut out a win on the margins. They also learn something about Bo Nix that they had never heard before.32:21 - Mat comes back with RECIEPTS on Charles Barkley not putting Jokic in the same category as Shaq, Wilt, Hakeem, the Mt. Rushmore of Big Men. Is Jokic already standing head and shoulders above them? What's it gonna take for fans to accept that notion?

0:00 - Vic, Moser, and Mat Smith are back to talk Broncos as they beat the Chiefs 20-13 on Christmas night. Mat is cool with the win, so is Vic, Moser....is less enthusiastic about it. Should fans care more about the process or the results on this one? 20:22 - Meanwhile, the Nuggets and Timberwolves stayed up late last night playing one of the best games of the year as the Nuggets win 142-138 in OT. Jokic had a 56 point triple double in that game, which begs the question...is that the single greatest Christmas Day performance in league history?36:17 - The win was good, wins are always good, but Vic and Mose can't help but be a little bit concerned about the Broncos performing the way they did on Thursday night vs the Chiefs. Is it just another mid-week football game hiccup? Or is it an ill omen for the playoffs?

0:00 - Chiefs color commentator and former player Danan Hughes joins Vic, Mose, and Mat Smith to talk Chiefs-Broncos, what's next for the Chiefs as Mahomes is sidelined with a torn ACL, if this might be Travis Kelce's last dance, and more.15:03 - Mat Smith has some hot stove topics he wants to run by Vic and Mose before the end of the show, that includes a famous motorcyclist becoming offensive coordinator over at North Carolina, ASU head coach Kenny Dillingham throwing the gauntlet down for boosters, some choice Broncos quotes from yesterday, and more!32:44 - Tough loss for the Nuggets last night as Vic, Mose, and Mat unpack what could be even tougher news as they await updates on Cam Johnson's MRI. If he's out for an extended period of time...that's three total Nuggets starters down for the count going into Christmas night with the Timberwolves.
