NFL Week 6 Predictions with Podcast Flair

In this episode of the Big Chill Podcast, Frank and Eddie dig a little bit deeper into the absurdities of Chad Powers. Frank has a new conspiracy theory, but is there any truth to the idea that Krispy Kreme's bottom line has been affected by Eddie's gallbladder? The Giants picked up one of their biggest wins in a few years against the Philadelphia Eagles, but is there reason to be concerned about Jalen Hurts and co? Plus our previews and predictions for the rest of the Week 6 matchups in the NFL.

In this episode of the Big Chill Podcast, Frank and Eddie discuss Eddie's recent experiences at The Rugby Championship and the NFL in London, including a ticketing fiasco that left thousands stranded outside the stadium. Are the Lions the only really good team in the NFL after losses for the Chiefs, Eagles, and Bills? Eddie believes that the Baltimore Ravens might be completely done, but Frank explains why their easy schedule might save them. And can you trust the 49ers, Buccaneers, and Colts to keep their strong starts going? The conversation also touches on MVP discussions, particularly focusing on Daniel Jones and Baker Mayfield, and concludes with a surprising incident involving Mark Sanchez, as well as a reflection on Liverpool's performance in the Premier League.

In this episode of the Big Chill Podcast, hosts Frank and Edward discuss a variety of topics ranging from Tua Tagovailoa's unconventional approach to concussion prevention to the absurdities of the new Chad Powers show. They delve into NFL Week 5 predictions, critique the Champions League's new format, and share their thoughts on the MLB playoffs. 

Eddie and Frank discuss whether or not they would travel internationally by bus before discussing all of the action from Week 4 of the NFL. Losses for the Ravens and the Chargers, the Packers' tie, and unimpressive wins for the Bills have left Eddie wondering if there are any great teams in the NFL this season, but are things lining up for the Detroit Lions and the Philadelphia Eagles? Was fan behaviour at the Ryder Cup a microcosm of everything wrong with America at the moment, and just how close did the USA come to pulling off a comeback against Europe on Sunday? Plus, Liverpool finally lose as Arsenal escape a scare against Newcastle United, and 'Task' is moving towards an entertaining finale. 

Frank has a final hockey tournament of the year, but how do you handle splitting an Airbnb when you're a large group? And with the Ryder Cup starting this weekend, Eddie explains why the European team is more likable and, objectively, just cooler.  Plus, preview and predictions for every game from Week 4 of the NFL. Eddie believes that the Baltimore Ravens will get back on track against the Kansas City Chiefs, but Frank feels confident that the Giants, Buccaneers, and Commanders could all prove to be feisty underdogs. 

The NFL finally delivered some major surprises in Week 3, but do Eddie and Frank have reduced expectations for the Packers after their loss to the Cleveland Browns? And we've been here before with the Eagles, but do they have what it takes to make a deep playoff run? Plus, Liverpool were the only winners out of Arsenal and Manchester City's draw at the Emirates, and Frank has a newfound love for British daytime television. 

Tom Brady and a host of other NFL stars and coaches have signed up for a flag football tournament in Saudi Arabia, but Eddie remains stunned by the number of people willing to take money in exchange for helping the PIF and Saudi's to sportswash. Steak 'n Shake launched a bizarre billboard campaign attacking Cracker Barrel's CEO, but what do they actually sell? And Frank and Eddie are off to a hot start with their weekly NFL picks, but can Microsoft Copilot close the gap in week 3? Listen for all of our predictions for this week's NFL games, including a great matchup between the Lions and the Ravens, the chance for the Chiefs to get their first win of the season, and injury concerns for the 49ers, Vikings, and Bengals. Plus reaction to episode 2 of 'Task' as it looks like HBO is onto a hit miniseries, but is Fabien Frankel too good-looking for the show?

In this episode of the Big Chill Podcast, Frank and Eddie dive into the world of sports superstitions and the power of "chat magic" (0:00). They explore the impact of superstitions on game outcomes, sharing personal anecdotes and listener stories (5:30). The conversation shifts to a heated debate on the role of kickers in football and the challenges faced by college teams in recruiting top talent (15:00).

AI is everywhere, but is Microsoft Copilot good at picking NFL games? There seem to be some demons in the machine, but Frank, Eddie, and Copilot are all confident about the Buffalo Bills, Detroit Lions, LA Rams, Dallas Cowboys, and Arizona Cardinals heading into week 2. More injuries for the San Francisco 49ers mean that their season is already in peril, but can they survive against the New Orleans Saints without Brock Purdy? And a Super Bowl rematch is upon us, but Eddie is supremely confident that the Philadelphia Eagles will once again come out on top against the Kansas City Chiefs. Plus, 'The Paper' might actually be a good show, and it turns out that it's harder than you'd think to ship a Whoop.

The first week of the 2025/26 NFL season is (nearly) in the books, but did Week 1 really teach us anything? Lamar Jackson and Josh Allen played out an instant classic, but does the Buffalo Bills' comeback against the Baltimore Ravens mean that they should be favorites if they meet again in the playoffs? The San Francisco 49ers, the Cincinnati Bengals, Denver Broncos, and Arizona Cardinals were all unconvincing winners, and Eddie believes that we can already write off the Niners, Kansas City Chiefs, and the Bengals.  Plus, did the Green Bay Packers, LA Chargers, and Philadelphia Eagles do enough to show that they could be difficult to beat this year? And 'The Office' spinoff is out, but both Eddie and Frank believe that there could be some major character problems with 'The Paper'.
