It's FOOTBALL FRIDAY in The Sportsocracy, and we're coming off one of the craziest Thursday Night Football games of the entire season.The Seattle Seahawks pulled off an absolutely miraculous overtime win over the Los Angeles Rams — a game they had no business winning — and with that victory, Seattle sits all alone at #1 in the NFC.Sam Darnold. Overtime magic. A defense that refuses to bend.The NFC might officially run through Seattle… and yes, we're saying that OUT LOUD in December.Today we're asking:
Tank Spencer and Chris Womack, Sports Director at News 13, catch up on the College Football Playoff. The 1st Round has two games we expect to be competitive.

Also, The Carolina Panthers have a chance at the playoffs and Puka Nacua accuses the refs of making up penalties to get on TV.
As we enter Week 16 of the NFL season, it's time for Power Rankings Tuesday — but this isn't about standings, records, or preseason expectations.This is about TRUST.Which teams still alive in the NFL playoff race can actually win when everything tightens up?Which contenders are real… and which ones are just surviving?On today's show, Tank Spencer & Jeremy Greene break down every NFL team still alive in the playoff hunt, ranked not by record, but by how dangerous they truly are right now.Yes — the Los Angeles Rams sit at #1, and yes, there are going to be some rankings that make people uncomfortable.

It's FOOTBALL FRIDAY in The Sportsocracy, and we've got A LOT to unpack after a wild Thursday Night Football in the NFC South.The Tampa Bay Buccaneers walked into a must-win game… and walked out staring at the very real possibility that their season is cooked. After losing to the Falcons, Tampa now no longer controls its own destiny, and the NFC South has become even more of a clown-car circus than usual.From AFC Wild Card insanity to the NFC teams clawing for relevance, Week 15 is full of landmines — and we'll guide you through every one of them.
