Colin is joined by John Middlekauff, host of “3 and Out” to break down the final week of the NFL season. They start with the observation that the extended 17 game season has resulted in some terrible games featuring a ton of backup quarterbacks  in the final week of the NFL season (2:45). They preview the playoff field starting with the Patriots hosting the Chargers and they both agree the Chargers are a very live underdog that could upset the #2 seed Pats. Colin argues that he likes the Jaguars to win as a home underdog against the Bills and they agree the Jags can absolutely make it to the Super Bowl (11:15).  Colin predicts the Texans will be the winner in the Wild Card round regardless of whether they face the Ravens or Steelers and they both believe the Texans are the team nobody wants to play (13:15). They discuss whether the bye will be advantageous for the Broncos, but highlight that the collegiate atmosphere at Mile High Stadium is a massive home field advantage compared to other teams (16:45).  They pivot to the NFC and start with the Rams being a heavy favorite at Carolina and John argues the Rams defense has lost some of their early season mojo and both worry the Rams could be vulnerable on the road (24:45). They preview the 49ers at Eagles and Colin argues the Niners struggle offensively against good defenses like the Eagles, and that they’ll struggle to overcome all of their injuries (31:30). They move to the Bears hosting the Packers and while Colin likes the Bears to win, John argues that the Bears defense could sink them in the postseason (37:30). Outside of the playoff picture, they discuss reports that Pete Caroll & Kevin Stefanski are going to be fired, and identify the top head coaching candidates available (47:30). They preview the College Football Playoff semi-final games, starting with Miami vs. Ole Miss & they agree that the Hurricanes will bully their way to victory (58:15).

Colin's top takes of the week. He's joined by John Middlekauff, host of “3 and Out” to break down the NFL & college football playoff. They start with the Eagles holding off a late rally by the Bills to win in Buffalo and agree the Bills are entirely too Josh Allen dependent when he’s clearly not 100%, and discuss the hot/cold nature of the Eagles offense. They both agree the Bills look like a one and done team in the playoffs (3:00). They move to the Steelers loss to the Browns putting their playoff hopes in jeopardy and point to DK Metcalf’s suspension making their offense completely inept and discuss whether Mike Tomlin’s tenure in Pittsburgh has run its course (15:45). They move to the College Football Playoff and start with Indiana’s blowout of Alabama.  Colin explains why Curt Cignetti’s coaching has produced a Hoosier team that’s great in every facet of the game (29:00). They also break down what makes Fernando Mendoza such a great quarterback (35:00). Finally, they recap Miami’s thumping of Ohio State and Colin predicts the Hurricanes will meet Indiana in the championship game. They credit Mario Cristobal’s recruiting prowess for building a physically imposing roster full of NFL talent (41:45). (Timestamps may vary based on advertisements.)

In this hour of The Herd, Colin reacts to Wednesday and Thursday's College Football Playoff games and recognizes that the SEC has taken a back seat to the Big Ten in terms of college football dominance. Also, after Miami's win over Ohio State in the quarterfinal, we can see that the Hurricanes were legitimate this whole time. Finally, Colin wonders if the Pittsburgh Steelers are destined for the same, old offseason they've gone through the last eight years. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
