  • Super Bowl LX Set: Patriots vs. Seahawks! Sean Payton’s Gamble, Patriots Chances, & Steelers’ McCarthy Mistake

    Super Bowl LX Set: Patriots vs. Seahawks! Sean Payton’s Gamble, Patriots Chances, & Steelers’ McCarthy Mistake
    2026/01/26
    1.25.26 Conference Championship Sunday did not disappoint! In this episode, John recaps a wild pair of games that solidified the matchup for Super Bowl LX. We officially have a rematch of one of the greatest Super Bowls in history as the New England Patriots prepare to take on the Seattle Seahawks in Santa Clara. First, John breaks down how the Patriots returned to the mountaintop in the post-Belichick and Brady era. Is Mike Vrabel already the best coach in the league? And can Drake Maye keep his poise against a relentless Seattle secondary? We also dive deep into the "Blizzard at Mile High." John questions Sean Payton’s controversial decision to pass up a chip-shot field goal in the 2nd quarter—a move that arguably cost the Denver Broncos their season. On the NFC side, we look at the Los Angeles Rams' narrow loss and whether Sean McVay made a critical tactical error as well. Finally, John shifts gears to the explosive NFL coaching carousel. He explains why he’s a massive fan of the New York Giants hiring John Harbaugh (and why giving him full power was a home run), while simultaneously dragging the Pittsburgh Steelers for the "uninspired" hiring of Mike McCarthy.

Brett Kane from Altitude Sports in Denver joins John to discuss the Broncos disappointing showing in the AFC Championship Game, if Sean Payton cost the Broncos the game by going for it in the 2nd quarter instead of kicking the field goal, and why he believes the Broncos would have won if Bo Nix was healthy.

    1.24.26 Is the "Steelers Way" officially dead? Ari Temkin kicks off a massive episode by breaking down the bombshell news that the Pittsburgh Steelers have officially hired Mike McCarthy to succeed Mike Tomlin. Ari explains why this is a catastrophic mistake for a franchise that prides itself on stability, and why it’s time for the front office to do the unthinkable: trade TJ Watt, embrace the rebuild, and stop chasing a mediocre "win-now" ceiling. The McCarthy Meltdown: Ari dives into why hiring Mike McCarthy is "Tomlin 2.0" but with a lower floor. Is the tradition of hiring young, first-time coaches over? Plus, why a TJ Watt trade is the only way to save the future. Championship Sunday Preview: Ari previews a wild Sunday. Can Mike Vrabel’s Patriots handle the altitude in Denver against a Jarrett Stidham-led Broncos team? Then, a breakdown of the NFC West rematch between the Rams and Seahawks. Bill Bender (The Sporting News): The guys discuss the College Football Playoff staying at 12 teams, Indiana’s historic 16-0 championship run under Curt Cignetti, and why Arthur Smith leaving the Steelers to become Ohio State’s OC is the ultimate "get out while you can" move. Gregg Bell (The News Tribune): The Seahawks insider explains how Mike Macdonald flipped the script in Seattle so quickly and why the mid-season acquisition of Ernest Jones IV and what the game plan looks like to stop Sean McVay tomorrow. Chris Mack (Kaboly and Mack and Westwood One Sports): A fiery local perspective on the McCarthy hire. Chris explains why the Steelers jumped the gun, what this means for DK Metcalf’s future in Pittsburgh, and why the "best-case scenario" for 2026 might still be a Wild Card exit.
