Episode Details

NFL power shifts as the Los Angeles Rams enter 2026 with Super Bowl-or-bust expectations—can Matthew Stafford and Sean McVay finally deliver on the hype, or will history repeat itself for preseason favorites? Dark horse contenders like the Houston Texans and Cincinnati Bengals threaten the status quo, with stars like C.J. Stroud and Joe Burrow poised for breakout campaigns. Plus, are the Dallas Cowboys ready to break their decades-long postseason slump and claim NFC East dominance over the Eagles?

Brian Peacock and Matt Williamson break down every division race, spotlighting key trades such as the Buffalo Bills’ DJ Moore gamble, New England Patriots’ development around Drake Maye, and potential trade deadline blockbusters that could tilt the NFC North. Award predictions heat up: is this Myles Garrett’s year for Defensive Player of the Year, and could rookies like Jadarian Price or Reuben Bain shock the league? Tune in for bold forecasts and expert insight on the NFL’s most compelling storylines for 2026.

Matt Williamson (former NFL and college scout) along with Brian Peacock (football analyst and radio personality) host this national daily NFL podcast with the most up to date news, analysis, trades, rumors, fantasy advice and NFL draft coverage!
