Your host, Brian Goodwin, breaks down and discusses the day's most relevant sports topics. We include solo shows with Brian, co-hosts, interviews, and different segments. It's sports and we have fun with it.
On today's show, Brian addresses what teams did in the draft and if they answered the most important questions their respective franchises faced. Are the Eagles still the NFC's best? Did the Lions or Seahawks close the gap at all? Did the Bengals and Bills address needs that help pull them even with KC? And the Cardinals appear to be pulling off an obvious tank job for Caleb Williams or Drake Maye.
The tradition continues as Champ joins the show during the live First Round of the NFL Draft. The guys banter over picks, laugh at the Lions, and try to figure out the Jets.
On today's show, Brian discusses what's being said at the 2023 Owners Meetings about Lamar Jackson. Plus, it's been a couple weeks since Aaron Rodgers told the world that he wants to play for the New York Jets. We discuss why this hasn't happened and what we hope the Packers will do.
It's Friday night and there's breaking news!!! We react to the huge trade that gives the Carolina Panthers the number 1 pick in the draft. What this trade means for the Panthers and Bears? But Brian opens with the Lamar Jackson situation and what to make of all the reports that have come out since that teams are not interested in the 26-year old former MVP.
Get ready -- the quarterback news will start coming fast and furious! Yesterday, we got the reports that Derek Carr is a New Orleans Saint and Geno Smith is back with a new deal in Seattle. Brian discusses these deals. Then, we look ahead to what might happen next, with Aaron Rodgers to the Jets likely leading the way. But there's more! What will Baltimore do with Lamar? Brian predicts non-exclusive tag and why that will result in Lamar starting on another team in 2023! Plus, could the Rams deal Matthew Stafford??!! Lastly, the Bears have been busy putting a lot of smoke out there. What's all the noise really mean about the number 1 pick in the draft? And why potential trade partners are waiting.
We're in the middle of Combine Week in the NFL, and Brian is in the mood to make some draft-related predictions. We examine which QB will go number 1 and which team will be poised to trade up for him. Which surprise defensive player will come off the board first? Could QBs really go 1-2-3? Should the Lions grab a quarterback at 6 (or 18)? And who's the QB below the top-4 who could have a Jalen Hurts-type of impact on his team?
Welcome to Combine Week in the NFL, as everyone descends upon Indianapolis! One of the top storylines (if you can believe it) is potential number 1 pick Bryce Young's weight! Brian has some thoughts! Plus, we discuss the tweet that Schefty put out about the Bears' number 1 pick being up for sale. We put on our Brian Windhorst hat and theorize what this means. Then, we dive into what is most important at the Combine, and how we should be sorting through the WR prospects this year.
The 2022 NFL season has ended, but that only means that the offseason is just beginning! Brian takes us through ten predictions for the coming months. Where does Aaron Rodgers end up? Does Lamar stay in Baltimore? Which top level WR will get dealt? How does Philly respond to being oh-so-close in the big game? All that and many more predictions!!
On today's show, the KC Chiefs are champions once again. Why was this one more impressive as we examine Andy Reid's coaching performance? Plus, we look at all the angles from the game that played out -- some as expected while others were not. Then, we discuss how a classic game was marred by officiating, and Brian explains why that call -- while correct by the letter of the law -- should not have been made. Lastly, we talk about grass! How was that playing surface so brutal???
On today's show, Brian reacts to a bummer of a Championship Sunday. Plus, Tom Brady retires (again), Eagles-Chiefs storylines that we'll hear about, and movement on the coaching front -- Sean Payton to Denver, DeMeco Ryans to Houston, and coordinator positions filling up.
What a Sunday of NFL playoff football! Brian runs through winners and losers. -the Bengals o-line showed up despite the doubters -Joe Burrow is elite -Greg Olsen was excellent on the SF/DAL game -changes coming in Buffalo? -CBS and FOX miss out
Today, we breakdown the 4 NFL Divisional Round games on the slate for this weekend. What do the Jags need to pull the upset? (HINT: Everything....and more! But Dougie P will be ready.) The Bills-Bengals features two championship-caliber teams, but will it be a QB mistake that makes the difference? Will the third time be a charm for the Giants, as they head into Philly? Watch for Wink's blitz and the Eagles' response. Lastly, let's go into a time machine to the 90s for 49ers-Cowboys! So many keys and questions: Brock versus Micah Parsons; Dak versus the nasty Niners defense; Big Mike in a huge game; the Cowboys' ability to make the big plays. Plus, Brian gives his Best Bets.
With the news earlier in the week that the Chargers have parted ways with OC Joe Lombardi, Brian takes it upon himself to help Brandon Staley find the next playcaller for Justin Herbert. We give a list of potential candidates and tier them out.
On today's show, Brian recaps the weekend's playoff action. Baltimore blew a chance to upset Cincy -- what was John Harbaugh thinking at the end? And now, what's the future of the Ravens and Lamar Jackson? The Bengals advance but at what cost, as more O-line injuries emerge. We also talk about the Giants advancing and the 49ers doing it with Brock Purdy. But let's not forget the main event here -- the Chargers do what we all should have expected and lose a 27-0 lead! The Jaguars come back, Dougie P shows why he's got a ring, and now the Chargers franchise must ask and answer some difficult questions about their head coach and coaching staff. Plus, we wrap up with Bucs-Cowboys on MNF.
Champ joins Brian to discuss the Packers season-ending loss to the Lions, the offseason, and what might, what should, and what could happen with Aaron Rodgers. Then, the two examine the five head coaching vacancies and discuss which are the most intriguing -- and could two more open up after this weekend? Lastly, we wrap up by discussing all 6 Wild Card games this weekend.
On today's show, Brian hands out recognitions for all the major NFL awards. How'd Patrick Mahomes have such an outstanding season after an offseason where he lost Tyreek Hill?!! Why can't we recognize Nick Bosa and Justin Jefferson as legitimate MVP candidates? Who wins the very very crowded field for Coach of the Year? Sauce or Hutch for DROY? And a surprise OROY! Plus, we get into a few leftover storylines from Week 18, as we head into the playoffs.
The NFL regular season is over and it's playoff time! We'll talk playoff matchups and the schedule, but first we reflect on the 2022 season: big changes probably necessary in New England, Mike Tomlin just wins baby, and did Sean Payton's next job just open up in Arizona? Plus, Houston loses the number 1 pick in the NFL Draft and Lovie Smith, consequently, loses his job as Texans' head coach.
On today's show, we examine the Week 18 slate of games, but first we celebrate great news about Damar Hamlin. Plus, new pieces to understand with regard to the AFC Playoffs -- homefield, number one seed, neutral site title game, and coin flip to determine homefield in a potential Bengals-Ravens Wild Card Round game. We got more on the playoff picture: Lions-Packers-Seahawks for the 7-seed in the NFC, Patriots still with a shot (???!!!), Jags-Titans for the AFC South crown, and we have Best Bets (based on player incentives).
Brian discusses Damar Hamlin and what we saw on Monday Night Football.
On today's show, Brian wonders aloud how anyone could trust the Bucs this weekend against Carolina. Plus, we get a good one on MNF -- Buffalo at Cincinnati. Could this be the Game of the Year? Then, we examine some other Sunday games -- Packers' magic versus Vikings' magic, Tomlin on SNF against a hated rival, and the Washington Commanders entrust their playoff hopes to Carson Wentz. Plus, we give out some Week 17 Best Bets.
On our mid-week show, Brian examines teams, players, and coaches that may have an eye on the 2023 offseason. What will the Detroit Lions decide to do with Jared Goff and their QB decision? What's Lamar Jackson's future? Where do the Jets and Commanders go for QB answers and does Jimmy G fit into any of these plans? The Colts have lots to sort through: head coach, quarterback, and rebuilding the roster -- where do they start? And of course, no offseason discussion can happen without talking about where Sean Payton may coach in '23 -- what's the best potential opening? And lastly, is a reunion of sorts just what Tom Brady needs in a bit of an unexpected place?
On today's show, Brian reacts to Tampa's OT win at Arizona and why that offense is unwatchable. Also, more from Week 16 including the Christmas Eve nap the Lions took against the Carolina run game, the Ravens clinching a playoff berth, the AFC 7-seed scenario, and the Cowboys looking pretty complete in a big win over the Eagles. Lastly, we lookahead to tonight's MNF and wonder if it's too good to be true for the Chargers.
On today's show, Brian delves into the possibility that all is not well in Foxborough, what might be fueling this, and what the results could end up being. Then, we get into a fun slate of games for Week 16, starting with the TNF game between Jacksonville and the Jets.

Plus, we talk about how weather will impact Saints-Browns, and we give out Best Bets.
On today's show, Brian opens with the disastrous ending in the Patriots-Raiders game and how it tells the story of the New England season. And what's next for Bill Belichick and that offense? Next, the Jaguars are coming for the division as the Titans lose again, the Lions might be the THIRD (???!!!!) best team in the NFC, and the Bengals got it going on!! Plus, we look at some potential playoff matchups for January that would be fun.
On today's show, Brian looks at the most intriguing storylines heading into Week 15 in the NFL, starting with the surging Lions heading into their game against the playoff-hopeful New York Jets.

Also, the Bengals are better than the Chiefs, the Ravens are slipping (at the very best), and the Jets are legit playoff team. We wrap up with the Tie Heard 'Round the NFC East!!

We start with the reunion between Mike McDaniel and Kyle Shanahan in San Francisco, where the high-flying Dolphins offense takes on the 49ers D.

Then we examine Titans-Eagles, Jets-Vikings, and Commanders-Giants. Lastly, we wrap up with Best Bets.
On today's show, Brian examines which NFL teams might be primed for a run after their Week 12 performances: the Bengals, Jets, 49ers, Commanders, and Dolphins. Then, we answer who should be concerned as we turn the calendar forward to December: Ravens and another blown lead, the Broncos losing to Sam Darnold, the Seahawks giving up 40 to the Raiders at home off a bye, and the Cardinals losing again and appearing to have no answers.
We open the show reacting to the Michigan win at Ohio State -- Harbaugh's adjustments on offense, the run game bullying OSU again, and what this win means for expectations on the College Football Playoff.

It's Thanksgiving and for the first time in a while we have 3 intriguing football games. Brian delves into the biggest questions, betting angles, and talking points surrounding Bills-Lions, Giants-Cowboys, and Patriots-Vikings.
On today's show, Brian starts by proclaiming the 49ers to be serious threats in the NFC -- maybe as good as Philly. Then, we reflect on Sunday's Week 11 action -- the Eagles show cracks in the armor for the first time; the Cowboys definitely are SB contenders; Zack Wilson's days in New York are numbered; and Patrick is the unquestioned best in the league. Lastly Brian tries to reason with ownership in Denver to fix their QB/head coach problem.
On today's show, Brian answers the question: Who can win the Super Bowl? The obvious choices are there -- Kansas City, Buffalo, Philadelphia, but which other teams can join them as serious contenders? Where do teams like the Dolphins, Vikings, and Ravens stack up? Plus, we'll examine Week 11's betting card and hand out Best Bets.
Brian reacts to the GOTY -- does our opinion of Buffalo change, have we disrespected the Vikings? Plus more takeaways from Week 10, such as Josh McDaniels better solve this in Vegas, the Bucs might be back (maybe), the Rams are WAAAY dead, and I told you so about Taylor Heinecke!!!

It's midway through the NFL season, so what better time to do a check-in and see where every team sits?
Today, we preview Week 9 games by starting with a matchup of the only two above-.500 teams, when KC hosts Tennessee on SNF. Then, Brian discusses the ramifications of two desperate teams meeting in Tampa with Bucs-Rams. Plus, the Chargers made adjustments after their bye week a year ago -- will they do the same this weekend in Atlanta? And is the wrong team favored in SEA-ARI? We wrap up with Best Bets.
Today, we react to Week 8 in the NFL: no one is better than the Buffalo Bills; Christian McCaffrey is what we dreamed we could be in SF with Shanahan; Mike Vrabel won't let the Titans be terrible; and the Atlanta Falcons are now the FIRST PLACE Falcons! Plus, the Vikings somehow are the second seed in the NFC, Bill Belichick is number 2 in all-time wins, and Taylor Heinicke was always the answer over Carson Wentz.
On today's show, Brian gives his Best Bets for Week 8, including some Stefon Diggs, Derrick Henry, and Malik Willis player props. Also, we get on Buffalo, Philly, and Cincy in different spots, plus some outright winners with the Seahawks and Patriots.
The 2022 NFL season has been confusing to say the least: the Seahawks offense is fun with Geno Smith; the Bucs and Packers look lost offensively, the New York teams are a combined 11-3, the Falcons are in serious contention for the division, and the AFC West isn't that great. We'll talk about all these surprises and if we'll feel the same way about them in a month.
Brian dives into Week 7 and examines why smashing the Cowboys isn't a slam dunk. Plus, the Jags are the favorites over the 5-1 Giants. Hmmmm. Ravens should cruise offensively against a bad Cleveland defense, the Jets are the new hotness after a huge win in Lambeau last week but should we be discounting the Brett Rypien-led Broncos? We wrap up with some Best Bets.

We start today's show discussing the two huge Week 6 games: the fun and excitement of another Bills-Chiefs showdown plus the Eagles and Cowboys are both good and both have a ton to play for. Brian checks in on these two games before moving to some big questions on deck for Week 6, involving the Giants-Ravens game, Kliff Kingsbury's future, why Minnesota is laying 3 points in Miami, and if we can survuve a primetime MNF game with Brandon Staley and Nathanial Hackett. We wrap up with some Best Bets.
On today's show, Brian addresses the new of the week that Carolina has dismissed head coach Matt Rhule. What went wrong? Then, what is wrong with the Rams???!!! Finally, we play "Fiesty or Fraud," as we examine four teams and what the outlook might be for them for the rest of the season.
First, we recap the terrible TNF game between the Broncos and Colts. Then we move to Sunday's matchups, including Dallas' defense hitting the road to take on the defending Champs and Sean McVay's stagnant, one dimensional offense. We also look at the Eagles taking on Kyler Murray and prognosticate how that game could go, Lamar versus a nice Bengals' defense, and we discuss some games and teams no one else wants to. Lastly, Best Bets for Week 5.
On today's show, Brian recaps the dominant performance from the SF 49ers defense on Monday Night Football and why this rivalry with the Rams has become really fun to watch. Also, DeMeco Ryans is very quickly establishing himself as one of the best defensive coaches in the NFL. Plus, we look back on Week 4 and make some observations, like the Eagles are the best team in football, the Bears are despicable, and the Ravens defense is very concerning.
On today's show, Brian previews some of the top games on the slate for Week 4 in the NFL, starting with the highly-anticipated game in Baltimore featuring two MVP-level QBs. How will Buffalo's defense try and curb Lamar's explosive play? Then, we get Doug P's homecoming as he returns to Philly with the 2-1 Jaguars. And then we get to end Sunday with SB Rematch from 2020 with Brady v. Mahomes. Lastly, Best Bets for the weekend.
