Bobby Bones and Matt Cassel exchange some car stories before diving into the Broncos advancing without an injured Bo Nix. Matt explains how the team moves forward this week and has the opportunity to rally around Jarrett Stidham. Looking at the head coaching openings, who would be the ideal candidate for the Bills? Matt thinks it's a tough spot because of the immediate Super Bowl expectations. It's Conference Championship Playoff Weekend and the Patriots should feel confident against the Broncos. The Rams visit the Seahawks and Bobby explains why Matthew Stafford is the best QB left playing. Boston Globe Sr. NFL Writer Ben Volin will be in Denver to cover the Patriots. Ben notes the turnaround from New England after Mike Vrabel joined the team. How has Drake Maye established himself as the leader of this locker room? Ben was surprised by the Bills moving on from Sean McDermott because coaching wasn't their issue this season. What is the best candidate for Buffalo? Ben feels like the Seahawks have the advantage of rest against the Rams, but LA has been playing tough. Ben reveals his favorites for MVP this season, before Matt asks for Ben's favorite Tim Tebow story. With 4 QB's left, which one has the best 'story' if they won the Super Bowl?

A new OC with familiar roots The Detroit Lions hired Drew Petzing as offensive coordinator. The hire ties Detroit to the Kevin Stefanski tree and a system built on timing and detail. Petzing coached tight ends in Cleveland in 2020 and 2021. Those Browns made the playoffs and won a playoff game for the first time in more than thirty years. His Cleveland work stands out. Petzing helped turn David Njoku from a talented but inconsistent former first rounder into a much better pro. The improvement started with focus. Route depths got precise. A nine-yard out was nine yards, not seven or ten. The blocking jumped too. Njoku became a Pro Bowl caliber tight end. Harrison Bryant arrived as a glorified big wideout and improved as a blocker and in the finer points of spacing. The common thread was attention to detail. Scheme overlap that fits Detroit Petzing comes from the Stefanski offense that traces back through Minnesota and the Norv Turner and Shanahan Kubiak family of ideas. It is a timing and precision attack. It aims for yards after the catch and hits weak points. It mixes in deep shots from base looks. That is also the foundation Ben Johnson used in Detroit. The language changes, but the structure aligns. In Cleveland, the core pieces were Nick Chubb at running back, Odell Beckham and Jarvis Landry at wide receiver, and Njoku with Bryant at tight end. Baker Mayfield ran the show. The line was strong aside from a sore spot at left tackle. The results were a middle-of-the-pack offense, about fourteenth, that strung together long drives. It was not an all-or-nothing unit. It generated explosives out of its core formations. Landry was a draft comp for Amon-Ra St. Brown. St. Brown is the better athlete now, but the play style echoes. If you frame J-Mo as the OBJ role from that one good Cleveland year before injuries, the parallels are easy to see. Tight ends and 12 personnel on deck The Lions need more help at tight end. The head coach played tight end in the NFL and is a former tight ends coach. He likes 12 personnel, with one back and two tight ends. Petzing's track record with Njoku and Bryant pairs with that preference. Coincidentally, Njoku is a free agent this offseason. Petzing also served as quarterbacks coach in Cleveland in 2022. That matters for Detroit. Jared Goff is different from Baker Mayfield. Goff is more careful, less mobile, and a better decision maker. That profile fits the Stefanski-style approach. Within a familiar NFL framework, the Detroit Lions can carry over what already works and sharpen the edges under their new offensive coordinator. This is a continuity bet with clear intent. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TTkpjtwbT84 #detroitlions #lions #detroitlionspodcast #drewpetzing #detroitlionsoffensivecoordinator #kevinstefanskioffense #tightendscoach #davidnjoku #harrisonbryant #12personnel #benjohnson #shanahankubiakstyle #jarvislandry #odellbeckham #nickchubb #bakermayfield #amon-rast.brown #jaredgoff Learn more about your ad choices.

Buy These 2024 Players Instead of Spending Picks on 2026 Rookies Jagger May and Andrew Mott break down why dynasty managers should target undervalued vet players instead of chasing 2026 rookies. With the 2026 class lacking depth, buying low on players offers better value for contending teams looking to maximize their rosters. Marvin Harrison Jr. tops the buy list after a disappointing rookie season hampered by injuries and poor offensive coordination. With Drew Petzing gone and a potential offensive overhaul in Arizona, Harrison could be acquired for a fourth or fifth round startup pick. Brian Thomas Jr., Rome Odunze, and Ladd McConkey all offer bounce back potential, with McConkey especially appealing after Greg Roman's firing in Los Angeles opens up the passing game. Zay Flowers quietly delivered consistency despite limited touchdown equity, while Woody Marks presents running back value despite a struggling Texans offense. The hosts even highlight veteran quarterback Jared Goff and breakout tight end Kyle Pitts as targets now that Kevin Stefanski is coaching the Falcons. Start Using the Film Room Today!

Robinson's Fit and Play-Calling Proof Detroit moved fast on the offensive coordinator search. The Detroit Lions Podcast focused squarely on two NFL names. Zach Robinson interviewed in Allen Park on Thursday morning. He was the Atlanta Falcons offensive coordinator. Atlanta underachieved, but Robinson's work with Bijan Robinson stood out. Bijan piled up almost 2,400 yards from scrimmage this year. Robinson balanced him with Algier. He understands a two-back system. That matters with David Montgomery and Jahmyr Gibbs. Robinson worked with Jared Goff in Los Angeles as an assistant quarterbacks coach. He comes from the McVay tree. That signals continuity for Detroit's offense rather than a reset. He has called plays. He has coached wide receivers, quarterbacks, and tight ends. Atlanta's interior offensive line was strong and often overlooked. Robinson built around that strength. He navigated a season with Michael Penix and Kirk Cousins. Results were better with Cousins. The Lions need that kind of pragmatic design for Jared Goff, who shares a similar athletic profile. Robinson tailored calls to the quarterback. He used motion, spacing, and run-pass balance to keep structure intact and drives on schedule. Kafka's Creative Case Mike Kafka interviewed Wednesday. He just served as the interim head coach of the New York Giants. One game against Detroit still resonates. With Jameis Winston at quarterback, the Giants pushed the Lions to the edge. Kafka leaned into trick plays and gimmicky blocking. He attacked known weaknesses in Detroit's defense. That creativity landed. Kafka trained in the Andy Reid system. There is crossover with McVay concepts. West Coast principles with an aggressive streak match what Ben Johnson often does. Kafka has worked with different quarterback styles. He developed a run game in New York without a good offensive line. He used a power option in Cam Scataboe and paired it with Tyrone Tracy, a capable receiving back. He darn near beat the Lions without Malik Nabers, Jackson Dart, or Cam Scataboe available. That adaptability fits what Detroit needs from an NFL coordinator: answers when pieces are missing, and a plan that highlights Gibbs and Montgomery while keeping Goff comfortable. What Happens Next at Allen Park The building is closed to media. There will be no access until draft time inside the media room. On-field views return at rookie minicamp in May. The timeline is tight, but the process is clear. Detroit is not changing its identity. The Lions are evolving it. Robinson offers continuity with proven play-calling. Kafka brings creative problem solving and opponent-specific attack plans. Both align with how the Detroit Lions want to score and protect the ball. Now it is about selection, fit, and timing as the Detroit Lions and this NFL search move forward. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lBvzESu16-8 #detroitlions #lions #detroitlionspodcast #offensivecoordinatorsearch #allenpark #zachrobinson #mikekafka #two-backsystem #jameergibbs #davidmontgomery #jaredgoff #mcvaytreeconcepts #bijanrobinsonusage Learn more about your ad choices.

In Episode 3 of Allegedly Sports, M|M and Tom Schneider return to break down one of the most chaotic weeks across both college football and the NFL. From the College Football Playoff semifinals to NFL Wild Card weekend, the conversation blends sharp analysis, strong opinions, and real football perspective. The episode opens with Indiana's continued dominance in the College Football Playoff, including their convincing win over Oregon and what makes them the most complete and well-coached team in the country. M|M and Tom debate quarterback Fernando Mendoza's NFL future, his personality, and whether leadership style actually matters at the next level. The conversation expands into coaching pedigree, with the surprising statistic that nearly every remaining head coach in the playoff tree traces back to Nick Saban's coaching tree. They also dive into one of the most controversial moments of the playoff — the missed pass interference call that helped send Miami to the national championship. M|M and Tom debate officiating, game-deciding calls, and whether refs shy away from making big calls in big moments. From there, the focus shifts to the NFL Wild Card slate, including Carolina's upset potential, Bryce Young's strange career arc, and why momentum late in the season often matters more than regular-season records. They also break down Caleb Williams' evolution in Chicago, Ben Johnson's impact on his development, and why Justin Fields was never the long-term answer for the Bears. The episode closes with a broader look at NFL disappointments and expectations — including the Lions' post-Super Bowl collapse, coaching turnover, Jared Goff's ceiling, and why defense and experience still rule in the playoffs. M|M and Tom finish by making full Wild Card and playoff predictions, including bold picks for Jaguars, Steelers, Eagles, Patriots, and Rams as potential deep-run teams. As always, the conversation stays unfiltered, opinionated, and grounded in how the game is actually played.

Detroit Lions Podcast: Lions Contact Mike McDaniel for OC OC Search Turns to Mike McDaniel The Detroit Lions fired John Morton. The Miami Dolphins fired head coach Mike McDaniel. Credible reports say the Lions contacted McDaniel about the offensive coordinator vacancy. The outreach reads like due diligence. He is a viable candidate with an inventive mind and a track record. The question is fit. Practice Tape and Scheme Mismatch Joint practices this summer left scars. McDaniel hardly engaged with players. Aloof and off putting came up around that field. Detroit just moved on from an OC players did not feel connected to. A repeat would be costly. The Dolphins offense landed bottom 10 in scoring and yards in each of the past two years and trended the wrong way. The usage did not match the roster. Tua was asked to throw short to the speediest wide receiving group in the game. The offensive line was asked to hold longer on routes he was not going to throw. That is a disconnect between talent and scheme. In the red zone the tells were obvious. You could read the call from the formation. That predictability helped stall drives. It mirrors a Detroit sore spot from this season. Detroit Context: Adapt or Fail Detroit at times called plays like Sam Laporta and Frank Rigg now were available. They were not. Results suffered. Miami's issues looked similar. In those joint sessions the Lions defense beat the living hell out of Miami, especially the first day. Detroit knew what was coming. Think Tecmo Super Bowl when you pick the play and blow it up. Miami did not adjust. Players did not show fight. McDaniel stood and took it. That picture matters when you weigh scheme flexibility and sideline communication inside this NFL building. Alternatives and a Blough Path There is a workable path if Detroit believes in McDaniel's concepts. Install him as OC and make David Blough the passing game coordinator. Let Blough learn the system for a year or two. Groom him. It is plausible. McDaniel has worked with dynamic offensive weapons. Devon A. Sheen compares to a smaller Jamir Gibbs. Jalen Waddle and Tyreek Hill thrived in space. Translating that speed and spacing to Detroit could hit, if the calls match the personnel and situation. Tua is not the answer for Detroit over Jared Goff. That is clear here. Todd Monken remains out there, technically still employed by the Baltimore Ravens. He is interesting and has had success in a variety of spots. The Lions need adaptability, clarity, and player connection. That should drive the hire. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i89gfyp3uvU #detroitlions #lions #detroitlionspodcast #mikemcdaniel #offensivecoordinatorvacancy #johnmorton #miamidolphins #jointpractices #lionsdefense #redzoneoffense #davidblough #passinggamecoordinator #tua #jaredgoff #samlaporta #frankriggnow #toddmonken Learn more about your ad choices.

Garret Price and Jagger May break down the top 72 dynasty rankings for Superflex tight end premium leagues, revealing a major philosophical shift toward elite running backs. The hosts agree that securing elite running backs has become critical for dynasty success. Bijan Robinson sits at three overall, with Jahmyr Gibbs at 11 and De'Von Achane cracking the top 24 at 13. Jagger emphasizes that his struggling teams this season all faded running back early, leading to his philosophical change. Garret explains that Josh Allen and Drake Maye remain the only quarterbacks he feels comfortable taking in the first round, with quarterback depth allowing managers to wait until rounds five or six for Jared Goff or Dak Prescott. Both consistently finish as QB1s despite being undervalued. Jaxson Dart ranks ahead of Joe Burrow and Justin Herbert at 21 overall, with both hosts praising his production despite having no coaching stability and limited weapons. Price's rankings feature only six quarterbacks in the top 24, a dramatic shift from previous seasons when he'd rank 11 or 12 signal-callers that high. The duo identifies round four as a crucial buy low tier, featuring Marvin Harrison Jr, Brian Thomas Jr, and George Pickens. Pickens draws particular praise from Jagger despite contract year concerns about his effort level after getting paid. Kyle Pitts also earns strong backing at tight end eight after a solid season with Atlanta that featured consistent floor production.

Detroit Lions Podcast: John Morton Out and the OC Search Morton Out, Campbell Hints at Calling Plays The Detroit Lions moved on from offensive coordinator John Morton on Tuesday. The decision resets the offense and spotlights the play-calling question. Dan Campbell signaled he is open to handling the call sheet. He also suggested stability if the play caller is him. The likely model is clear. Hire an offensive coordinator who keeps the current Detroit Lions structure intact while sharpening schematics, play designs, game planning, and week-to-week sequencing. The midseason shift strained the operation. Campbell did a lot of the heavy lifting, and it bled into other duties. If that setup existed from Week 1, the outcome might have looked different. Now the Detroit Lions can define roles before the next snap. The NFL calendar will not wait. David Blough Makes Immediate Sense David Blough was the first name to surface. He served as the Washington Commanders quarterbacks coach last season. He is young and considered an up-and-comer. He once backed up in Detroit and understands the Lions locker room. He also knows Jared Goff well. That matters. Blough has been around varied systems, including Washington's approach and time in Cleveland with Stefanski. Jumping to offensive coordinator after two years as a coach is a big step. It becomes more reasonable if Campbell calls the plays. In that setup, Blough could drive passing concepts, opponent-specific installs, and weekly structure while the head coach manages the call flow. Antoine Randall El Fits the Room, With a Catch Another strong candidate is Antoine Randall El. He is the Chicago Bears wide receivers coach and assistant head coach. He left Detroit after a long run coaching the Lions receivers. That was not easy for him. His fingerprints are all over the current room. He helped rein in Jamo and earn his buy-in. Jamo rewarded that trust with a fantastic season. Randall l knows the personnel, the tone, and the standards. He has worked with Mark Brunell, Hank Fraley, and Scottie Montgomery. Seth Ryan is likely to remain and is well liked. The snag is title. Moving from assistant head coach to coordinator is technically a demotion. Extracting him from Chicago could be complicated. Internal Route Unlikely, External Fit Paramount An internal promotion appears unlikely. The Detroit Lions did not pivot in-season when it was needed most. Maybe they were averse to an in-season firing. Either way, the search points outward. The next OC must align with the offense built by Campbell and Ben Johnson, then refine the details. If Campbell keeps the call sheet, the coordinator's job centers on design, sequencing, and opponent answers. The mandate is simple. Make the current Detroit Lions offense more efficient on Sundays. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A6dP3VIyDo8 #detroitlions #lions #detroitlionspodcast #johnmorton #offensivecoordinator #dancampbell #playcaller #davidblough #jaredgoff #washingtoncommanders #stefanski #antoinerandalll #widereceiverscoach #chicagobears #passinggamecoordinator #gameplanning #schematics Learn more about your ad choices.
