NFL teams with deep pockets might be in for disappointment—this year’s free agent market for offensive and defensive linemen is thinner than expected. Joe Marino and Kyle Crabbs scrutinize the trenches, spotlighting possible big earners like Tyler Linderbaum, Rasheed Walker, and Jalen Phillips, and debating which linemen are worth a lucrative extension versus a riskier reclamation project. Will teams target young upside swings like Zion Johnson, Dylan Parham, or Trevor Penning, or lean on seasoned vets hoping for a resurgence?
Free agency buzz heats up with debate over franchise tags, re-signings, and how salary-cap giants like the Tennessee Titans and Las Vegas Raiders can maximize limited options. The conversation covers potential shifts for teams like the Green Bay Packers and Baltimore Ravens, hidden value among backup linemen and versatile interior players, plus which edge rushers—from Boye Mafe to Odafe Oweh—could command top dollar. Are extensions the real headline of the offseason?

Seattle Seahawks claim Super Bowl glory with defensive dominance and Mike Macdonald’s breakout as head coach. Can Seattle sustain this new era of success and keep their powerhouse roster intact?
Joe Marino and Kyle Crabbs break down the Seahawks’ emphatic win, spotlighting Sam Darnold’s redemption arc, Kenneth Walker’s MVP performance, and Michael Dixon’s elite punting that changed the field position battle. The conversation shifts to the New England Patriots’ turnaround under Mike Vrabel, Drake Maye’s puzzling postseason regression, and tough roster decisions ahead for both franchises—like the potential departure of Super Bowl MVP Kenneth Walker. The Draft Dudes also preview key draft strategies, possible splash trades for Maxx Crosby, New England’s wide receiver needs, and Kyle Crabbs’s fresh mock draft with risers like Carnell Tate and looming questions about sustainable team building.
Are the Seahawks set for a dynasty? Will the Patriots’ calculated rebuild yield playoff consistency?

Patriots and Seahawks lock horns in a Super Bowl 60 showdown marked by fierce defensive duels and high-stakes quarterback questions. Can Drake Maye power New England’s offense past Seattle’s relentless front led by Byron Murphy and Leonard Williams, or will Sam Darnold and JSN expose the Patriots' vulnerabilities? Red zone struggles, turnover battles, and the X-factor potential of Rashid Shaheed and Ken Walker amplify the tension as both teams chase championship glory.
Joe Marino and Kyle Crabbs break down key matchups, from New England’s patched-up O-line to Seattle’s opportunistic offense and league-best run defense. The hosts debate player props, game totals, and Vrabel’s game plan, weighing whether low-scoring grit or explosive plays will decide the winner. Who thrives under pressure, and which unit tips the scales in the ultimate test of playoff football?
