BREAKING: Patrick Mahomes suffers season-ending torn ACL in devastating Week 15 loss to the Chargers. The injury eliminates Kansas City from playoff contention and marks a historic turning point for the NFL — for the first time since 1998, the playoffs will feature no Tom Brady, no Peyton Manning, and no Patrick Mahomes.Czabe and ANDY POLLIN break down the ruinous Week 15 results that crushed both the Chiefs and Packers' postseason hopes. Even though Green Bay remains mathematically alive, Kansas City's dynasty is officially dead. What does the NFL look like without its elite quarterback safety net?Plus: Shedeur Sanders goes ice cold in Chicago's brutal conditions. Philip Rivers (yes, Ol' Man Rivers) delivers a surprisingly solid performance. Sherrone Moore faces his first courtroom battle (with many more likely coming). Diego Pavia's embarrassing sideline meltdown. Fernando Mendoza - the lovable dork who might actually be an NFL-caliber QB. And the Army-Navy game delivers inspiration once again.Our Sponsors:* Check out Aura Frames and use my code CZABE for a great deal: https://auraframes.com* Check out CBDfx and use my code CZABE for a great deal: https://cbdfx.com* Check out FRE and use my code LISTEN20 for a great deal: https://frepouch.com* Check out Hims: https://hims.com/CZABE* Check out Indeed: https://indeed.com/CZABE* Check out Infinite Epigenetics: https://infiniteepigenetics.com/CZABEAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Czabe welcomes PAUL CHARCHIAN to the pod for his weekly chop-em-up. What does the Colts calling Philip Rivers off the couch "say" about the NFL? The boys have wildly different views. A sidetrip down what constitutes the "Hall of Fame." Czabe revisits a painful but iconic play that went against Charch's Vikings when he was a young boy. Travis Kelce was once a dork, and loved dating the sistas! Where's Taylor? Kata Mara, Miranda Lambert, and concert stereotypes you hate.

Czabe welcomes MATT MUELLER - a "man about film" along with ERIC GITTER to discuss the Netflix news and what it *might* mean to the future of movies (spoiler: the good guy dies. Shhhh...). They also get into what else, the college football playoffs, and the lying ass committee. My podcast guru CHRIS BROUSSARD (no, not that guy) joins us, and as a father with 2 sons who went to Notre Dame, he was ready to stuff me into a locker! Also Jalen Hurts has 2 TO's on one play. Justin Herbert is rude to a pretty girl. Why did Bad Beats skip the Raider game?

Czabe welcomes MR X to the pod, as they go through some of the idiotic decisions, brutally bad instant replay calls, laughable "concussion awareness protocol" in the NFL and more. Also Mr. X weighs in on the Selection Committee. Czabe points out how what they are trying to do is actually impossible. Also replay is the *cause* of so many of these stupid rules. The Raiders bad beat. Portnoy goes too far. Fire Kevin Stefanski. Don Mattingly and Dale Murphy snubbed.

In one of the most improbable coaching feats in sports history, Curt Cignetti has lifted Indiana football to a level that defies belief. Czabe welcomes ANDY POLLIN and his IU grad JEREMY POLLIN to discuss the miracle witnessed on Saturday night. Also, the Field of 12 is set. There are problems all around. And now Notre Dame is throwing a hissy fit. Whatever. The Commanders get demolished in MInnesota, and Jayden Daniels is hurt again. What are we doing here? Plus Czabe reads a letter from a ghost of Redskins past, that he had buried in a box of memorabilia in the basement. MORE . . .

Czabe welcomes STEVE BUCKHANTZ and CHRIS KNOCHE to the Palm in Tysons for a Power Lunch. They discuss issues like "how powerful really is" agent Jimmy Sexton? And is Nick Saban just the unlikable slimy prick you thought of him before all the winning? Or is Czabe too damn naive to even think otherwise? Knoche talks about the Players Era Invitational in Vegas. Buckhantz hopes his JMU Dukes somehow get a miracle berth in the CFP. Laying the sod over a kick. The Thunder's Doomsday Machine. Giannis looks ready to leave.

Czabe welcomes PAUL CHARCHIAN to the show and they get deep into the nerd weeds on the state of video games. Charch also introduces Czabe to "RiffTrax" and his world is not quite the same anymore. "There's so much room for activities!" The Vikings Max Brosmer should have been told to surrender his helmet and jersey on the spot. Plus they aren't any good at trading lately either. The Patriots have hit the quick rebuild. Jaxson Dart has a shiny necklace (though it's fake I found out!) and a real idiot's attitude toward getting killed on the NFL football field. Good luck, pretty boy. The league will chew you up and spit you out in no time playing like that.

Czabe welcomes ANDY POLLIN to chop up an otherwise dud of a Sunday in the NFL Week 13, with the end for Aaron Charles Rodgers looking more and more in sight than ever, as the Bills destroy him and the Steelers in Pittsburgh. Lane Kiffin bolts for LSU, in one of the least suprising moves ever. But good for Ol' Miss to have some balls and tell him to "get out!"
