After years of sustained success under Sean McDermott, the Bills have entered a new era with Joe Brady at the helm and Jim Leonhard leading a defensive overhaul. Matt Parrino welcomes NFL insider Mike Sando from The Athletic to take stock of the organization. Was firing a winning coach like McDermott a mistake, or a necessary "emotional reset"?

Ian is ready for confessions and is ready to admit he was wrong about Mike Macdonald at the beginning of the season. He tells you why. Mike Sando, The Athletic tells Ian where John Schneider falls in the hall of fame discussion and tells us what it would take to get him there, if he's not already. Nichole Massie, VP of Nikco Sports tells us about an awesome commemorative piece of Super Bowl history that YOU can own and how to get it. John Lund, Unleashed and Westwood One won a lot of money on the Seahawks, so he's all in after this Super Bowl. What happened in the Keion White shooting over the weekend? John says this was just as dominant a win as SB 48 over the Broncos, despite the score looking different. There wasn't anything the Patriots could've done to change the outcome of the game. Finally, a look ahead to the Seahawks' 2026 season and the NFC West. Checking in on the Talkbacks and Texts! Crosstalk with Softy!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
