NFL 2022 Season Debrief

Super Bowl LVII - F You, Congratulations

Alex recaps Super Bowl LVII as the Kansas City Chiefs win their second Lombardi in four years, and third as a franchise, by beating the Philadelphia Eagles 38-35 in State Farm Stadium. All of the big moments from the game are discussed, including the quality of the turf, the Eagles building their first half lead, the comeback from the Chiefs, and that controversial holding call. There's a look at how the Kelce brothers handled the game, what the two teams look like going forward, and discussion on how much Andy Reid enjoyed it. Also on the pod, some final news stories, a recap of the Halftime show, and a look at those dreaded pre-season predictions. Music: Hard Sell Hotel by Shane Ivers - https://www.silvermansound.com

Championship Round - Pushing the QB

Alex looks back at the Conference Championship round of the playoffs as the Kansas City Chiefs and Philadelphia Eagles book their places in Super Bowl 57, the former using an unnecessary roughness call to kick a game winning field goal, and the latter see an injury to Brock Purdy make their game a cake-walk. Also on the pod, coaching hires start, Tom Brady retires ... again, and a preview of the Super Bowl alongside some not great singing.  Music: Hard Sell Hotel by Shane Ivers - https://www.silvermansound.com

On the 100th episode of The NFL Blitz: two turnovers in three plays stop a potential Jaguars upset as the Chiefs make their fifth straight championship game, the Giants see their great season end in a blowout loss to the Eagles, the Bengals dominate against the Buffalo Bills and clock management is once again an issue for the Cowboys in a big win for Brock Purdy and the 49ers. Alex also looks ahead to the Conference Championship Round as the Bengals and Chiefs meet once again, and the Eagles and 49ers face off in a fitting battle to be crowned best of the NFC.

Also on the pod: discussions about Tom Brady, Johnathan Abrams, the most shocking comments from a player about his own teammate, and Brandon Staley's fitting pre-season remarks.  Music: Hard Sell Hotel by Shane Ivers - https://www.silvermansound.com

NFL 2022 Season Debrief

Alex looks back at the season for all the sides who missed the playoffs, including the good, the bad, and the Jeff Saturday. There's praise for the Lions as they entertain, the Steelers as they avoid a losing record again, and the Falcons who might quietly be moving in the right direction, meanwhile: there's scorn for the Colts, the Patriots, and the Broncos: 03:56 - Detroit Lions 08:37 - Pittsburgh Steelers 13:06 - Washington Commanders 16:51 - Green Bay Packers 23:36 - New England Patriots 28:34 - New York Jets 33:48 - Cleveland Browns 35:21 - Tennessee Titans 40:04 - New Orleans Saints 43:24 - Carolina Panthers 46:39 - Atlanta Falcons 48:52 - Las Vegas Raiders 53:29 - Los Angeles Rams 56:35 - Denver Broncos 61:56 - Indianapolis Colts 68:20 - Arizona Cardinals 72:22 - Houston Texans 73:46 - Chicago Bears Music: Hard Sell Hotel by Shane Ivers - https://www.silvermansound.com
