What began as a routine dive quickly spiralled into one of the most baffling missing-person cases in modern adventure history. Despite extensive search efforts by elite recovery teams, no trace of Ben was ever found - not even in a place where escape seemed impossible.

Hosts Brad Fowler and Alex Higdon break down all the biggest storylines from around the NFL and College Football — from massive playoff implications to a shifting Super Bowl picture and a loaded CFP first round slate. We cover — the Broncos making a statement win over the Packers and why Denver suddenly looks like a legitimate Super Bowl favorite in the AFC. Bo Nix delivers his best performance of the season, the offense finds balance, and the defense remains elite as questions about Denver’s ceiling are officially answered. On the other side, the Packers’ season takes a dramatic turn as injuries pile up, including Micah Parsons, leaving Green Bay limping toward the playoffs and no longer looking like a true contender. Plus — the Chiefs dynasty over? Kansas City falls again as the offense continues to look broken, and we dive into what the future holds for Patrick Mahomes, potential roster turnover, and why this feels like a rebuild rather than a reboot. Meanwhile, Jim Harbaugh’s Chargers keep finding ways to win despite major offensive line issues, showing just how much coaching still matters in the NFL. We also break down Josh Allen once again putting the cape on as the Bills storm back from down 21–0 against the Patriots. While Allen has carried Buffalo over the past month, major concerns remain about the Bills’ defense and their ability to survive in the playoffs. On the New England side, we discuss how quickly the Patriots have closed the gap under Vrabel and McDaniels, Drake Maye’s growth, and why this team feels ahead of schedule. In other NFL action, the Rams continue to look like a Super Bowl-caliber team as Matthew Stafford plays at an MVP level and the run game surges late in the season. We ask whether the Lions have ruined their playoff hopes, why Detroit’s defense remains a glaring issue, and how dangerous Los Angeles could be down the stretch. In College Football, we make our picks for the CFP first round — breaking down Alabama vs Oklahoma, Texas A&M vs Miami, Ole Miss vs Tulane, and James Madison at Oregon. We dive into key matchups in the trenches, quarterback play, roster mismatches, and why some of these games may not be as close as they look on paper. Plus — NFL Game Balls, and more.

They Said It part two hears from Josh McDaniels and if he wants to be in New England for a very long time.
Peter starts the podcast by recapping a weekend in Los Angeles, in which he watched what could have been the end of the Chiefs dynasty alongside Troy Aikman, listened to Arnold Schwarzenegger walk through a hotel lobby, discussed movies with Ryan Clark and Marcus Spears, and watched one of the weirdest "Monday Night Football" games ever. Peter weighs in on Josh Allen's potential to go back to back MVPs, the Houston Texans defense, and the Jaguars as a team nobody is talking about. Six-time Super Bowl Champion Josh McDaniels joins the show for a deep-dive on his career, his philosophy on coaching, and his many insights on Drake Maye and the 2025 New England Patriots. McDaniels talks at length about his time with Tom Brady, the Super Bowl wins, and what he's learned and taken with him along the way. Stories on Randy Moss, Gronk, Julian Edelman are matched with promising insights on young Patriots stars Drake Maye, TreVeyon Henderson, and Pop Douglas. McDaniels discusses his year away from football in 2024, how he got right, and why he's ready to do it all over again. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
