Stroud's sophomore slump, whether or not the Seattle Seahawks are the new team to beat in the NFC West and much more.

  • Week 12's biggest games: Bears & Panthers show glimmers of hope in close losses | Football 301
    Nov 25 2024

    Nate Tice & Charles McDonald kick off the new Sunday night edition of Football 301 looking into five of the most interesting results from Week 12.

    The Chicago Bears lost yet again close, this time to the division rival Minnesota Vikings. The guys explain why hope is not lost for Chicago as Caleb Williams has continued to finally show improvement under new offensive coordinator Thomas Brown.

    Likewise in Carolina, it's been a rough two years for Bryce Young, but in 30-27 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, the former first overall pick may have put together the best game of his career.

    Nate & Charles also discuss the Texans falling to Will Levis' Tennessee Titans, a completely crazy fourth quarter between the Washington Commanders and Dallas Cowboys and a Seattle Cardinals win that may have reset the NFC West race.

    (2:15) - Williams shows hope in loss to Vikings

    (7:20) - Commanders/Cowboys goes crazy in fourth quarter

    (14:00) - Rollercoaster Will Levis gives Titans win over Texans

    (19:55) - Bryce Young may have had his best game yet against KC

    (25:05) - Seattle D resets NFC West against Cardinals

  • Giants release Daniel Jones, Browns win in snow & who can you REALLY trust to win the AFC? | Inside Coverage
    Nov 22 2024

    After relegating him to QB4, the New York Giants officially release Daniel Jones. Jason Fitz & Frank Schwab ask what went wrong in the ‘Daniel Jones era’ and look ahead to where he might be able to still land on his feet elsewhere in the NFL.

    The Cleveland Browns beat the Pittsburgh Steelers 24-19 in the snow during Thursday Night Football. The Steelers showed they might not be the postseason contenders we imagined in this game where their offensive star George Pickens was almost nowhere to be seen. All the Browns' problems seem to lie with their quarterback, but would getting a new QB in the 2025 NFL Draft truly get them back to winning ways?

    Fitz, Frank, and Charles look ahead to next season for Aaron Rodgers. If he’s not retired or with the New York Jets, where could the veteran QB realistically go? Plus, the trio look at two other QB contracts worth keeping an eye on in the second half of the season with Brock Purdy’s new deal with the San Francisco 49ers and if the Steelers will extend Russell Wilson.

    The three then ask which teams they really, truly trust to win either the AFC or NFC. Can the Steelers be trusted to win the AFC after a loss to a Browns team with nothing to lose? And is there anyone in the NFC who can threaten the Detroit Lions?

    (0:26) Giants release Daniel Jones

    (8:21) Steelers @ Browns recap

    (33:49) Where could Rodgers go next season?

    (43:01) QB contracts worth watching: Russell Wilson

    (46:23) QB contracts worth watching: Brock Purdy

    (56:01) Who do you trust to win the AFC?

    (1:05:08) Who do you trust to win the NFC?

    Nov 22 2024

The Baltimore Ravens take on the Los Angeles Chargers on Monday night, and Nate and Charles break down the Chargers' blueprint to keep up with a dangerous Ravens offense before moving on to the San Francisco 49ers vs. the Green Bay Packers, where two offenses with some key issues will face off.

    Later, Nate and Charles give one thing to watch in every Week 12 game and discuss Drake Maye's emergence as a legitimate franchise quarterback, big tests for Anthony Richardson and Caleb Williams, one way for the Dallas Cowboys defense to stifle Jayden Daniels, the Arizona Cardinals' offensive evolution, Sean McVay facing off against his nemesis Vic Fangio and much more. The duo finish up with a mailbag question of the week on the Georgia offense.

  • What's next for Aaron Rodgers & the Jets? Giants bench Daniel Jones, Mike Tomlin's career year | Inside Coverage
    Nov 20 2024

    Jason Fitz is joined by Jori Epstein and Frank Schwab to go behind the scenes on the latest news and storylines from around the NFL. The New York Jets fired their general manager Joe Douglas, which leads to a conversation about the future of the Jets and whether the complicated late-career saga of Aaron Rodgers is truly coming to an end after this season. In other New York quarterback news, the Giants benched QB Daniel Jones and are planning to start Tommy DeVito with Head Coach Brian Daboll's job potentially on the line. Is desperately trying to win games really in the best interest of the 2024 New York Giants?

    Later, Jori delves into her latest reporting around Chicago Bears OC Thomas Brown and the changes he's made to build around rookie QB Caleb Williams, and how Brown's focus on creating a simpler ecosystem for Williams is already showing on the field. Frank has officially launched the Mike Tomlin for Coach of the Year campaign, and he argues why Tomlin is having his best ever year leading the Pittsburgh Steelers.

    The hosts wrap up with Frank's latest controversial power rankings – as Frank attempts to defend keeping the Kansas City Chiefs above the Buffalo Bills despite the outcome of Sunday's head-to-head matchup – and predictions for Thursday night's matchup between the Steelers and the Cleveland Browns.

    (5:30) What's next for Aaron Rodgers and the Jets?

    (24:50) Giants bench Daniel Jones, will start Tommy DeVito

  • Playoff hopes for teams on the bubble: Bengals, 49ers, Colts, Broncos & more | Football 301
    Nov 19 2024

    Nate Tice and Matt Harmon take an in-depth look at the middle class of the NFL as they determine whether each playoff-hopeful team should be preparing for a playoff push or packing their bags.

    First, the duo start with the news that the New York Jets fired their general manager Joe Douglas. This move was mostly expected, but it really puts in perspective how far this franchise has fallen from the optimism surrounding the Aaron Rodgers acquisition just two offseasons ago. Nate and Matt also discuss whether Rodgers could return (on another team) in 2025.

    Moving on to some teams more deserving of attention, Nate and Matt start with teams on the bubble in the AFC playoff race, as they diagnose the Miami Dolphins, Cincinnati Bengals (both sit under 10% playoff odds), Indianapolis Colts and Denver Broncos and decide whether they are ready to make a playoff push or are destined for Cancun.

    The NFC race is even tighter than the AFC, as Nate and Matt give their predictions on the Atlanta Falcons and Tampa Bay Buccaneers before attempting to parse out a neck-and-neck NFC West that includes the Arizona Cardinals, Seattle Seahawks, San Francisco 49ers and Los Angeles Rams.

    (3:35) Jets fire GM Joe Douglas

    (10:05) Playoffs or pack it up: Dolphins

    (17:05) Playoffs or pack it up: Bengals

    Jason Fitz and Frank Schwab join forces to give their instant reactions and takeaways from every single game in the Week 11 NFL Sunday slate. The dynamic duo kick things off with the biggest highlight games of the day, as they give their thoughts on the Buffalo Bills finally slaying the undefeated dragon that was the Kansas City Chiefs and how the result changes the entire AFC playoff race, the Detroit Lions embarrassing the Jacksonville Jaguars in what looked like the best team in the NFL beating up on the worst team and the Pittsburgh Steelers officially putting the league on notice that they are the team to beat in the AFC North.

    Next, Frank and Fitz move on to the rest of the Sunday slate of games and discuss the Chicago Bears falling short against Green Bay for the eleventh straight time, Anthony Richardson's huge bounce-back game, the Denver Broncos looking like a clear wild card team, the muddy mess that is the NFC West race and much more. The two hosts finish off the episode with their thoughts and predictions for Monday night's matchup between the Houston Texans and the Dallas Cowboys.

  • Deion Sanders CANNOT fix Cowboys & did we forget about the Eagles? | Inside Coverage
    Nov 15 2024

    The Dallas Cowboys have problems but Deion Sanders is not the answer. Jason Fitz, Charles Robinson & Frank Schwab look at what a path to fixing the Dallas Cowboys would really look like. While a Deion and Shedeur Sanders combo might not work for Dallas, are there any other NFL franchises that should consider the father + son duo?

    But first, the trio recaps the Thursday Night Football game which saw the Philadelphia Eagles come out on top of the Washington Commanders. Despite having a solid roster and 8 wins, the Eagles have slipped from the NFC title conversation. What made us forget about the Eagles up until Thursday night?

    (1:53) Commanders @ Eagles recap

    (18:19) Is overpaying RBs an issue?

    (24:17) Path to fix Dallas Cowboys

    (47:47) Is Deion + Shedeur Sanders to the same NFL team a bad idea?

    (1:00:46) Stock up on C.J. Stroud
