#556: Super Bowl LX Recap + Latest NFL News (with Hal Bent)

from Sports Krunch w/DKROM · host Sports Krunch

1. Super Bowl LX Takeaways-DKrom: The last two Super Bowl winners are proof that there’s no such thing as too much DL depth-Hal: Seahawks won the battle of attrition and peaked at the right time thanks to their strong depth2. Super Bowl LX Honors-GOAT of the Week (DKrom: John Schneider, Hal: Mike Macdonald)-Dunce of the Week (DKrom: Rams D/ST, Hal: Josh McDaniels)3. Coaching Carousel-Grading the Steelers hire of Mike McCarthy as head coach (DKrom: D, Hal: C-) -Grading the Bills hire of Joe Brady as head coach (DKrom: C, Hal: D) -Grading the Browns hire of Todd Monken as head coach (DKrom: C, Hal: D)-Grading the Cardinals hire of Mike LaFleur as head coach (DKrom: D, Hal: C) -Grading the Raiders hire of Klint Kubiak as head coach (DKrom: A. Hal: A)-Would you be surprised if 2 (or all) of Davis Webb, Grant Udinski and Nate Scheelhaase are NOT head coaches in 2027?-Would you say Aaron Glenn is entering 2026 on the hottest seat of any head coach? -Do you think a potential dumpster fire awaits the Eagles in 2026 (particularly on offense) with Jeff Stoutland no longer in the building? 4. Pro Football Hall of Fame Class of 2026-If the PFHOF doesn’t (at MINIMUM) change the selection process for seniors, coaches and contributors back to the pre-2025 system, do we riot (metaphorically speaking of course)?-Outside the Belichick/Kraft snubs, do you think the Hall assembled one of the better classes it has in recent years?-Which one of these three (Willie Anderson, Marshal Yanda, or Terrell Suggs) do you think is most deserving to be enshrined in 2027? 5. Tag or No Tag-George Pickens-Trey Hendrickson-Kyle Pitts-Rashid Shaheed-Tyler Linderbaum-Daniel Jones or Alec Pierce6. Truth or Exaggeration-We will see A LOT more trades than we're accustomed to from March through late August-Either Jeff Bezos or Howard Schultz will end up buying the Seahawks as part of a larger group-Ohio State LB Sonny Styles will hear his name called before fellow Buckeye Caleb Downs on draft night-Raiders RB Ashton Jeanty will lead all NFL skill players in total touches in 2026-Two (or all three) of Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Puka Nucua, and Will Anderson, Jr. will receive a blockbuster contract extension averaging $50M per year or more this season -The Patriots OL will have 2 or 3 new starters in 2026-Unless the Raiders significantly move off their demands for a Micah Parsons-type haul in exchange for Maxx Crosby, the Bears should be content to rebuild their DL via the draft and value FA signings-The Los Angeles Chargers will win the AFC West and a playoff game in 2026 7. Offseason Bold Predictions -DKrom: Both Maxx Crosby and A.J. Brown well get traded about a week or so before Week 1. One will end up in Buffalo, and the other will end up in New England. Raiders will end up getting the same compensation the Cowboys got in the Micah Parsons trade and the Eagles will end up getting an extra first and second in 2027. -Hal: Despite only one first-round talent, 3-4 QB's get selected in the first round (Mendoza, Simpson, Nussmeier, Chambliss)8. Challenge Flags-DKrom: Seahawks…only hand out big $$ contracts to in-house extension candidates (Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Devon Witherspoon) and in-house free agents (Kenneth Walker III and Rashid Shaheed). Address your likely FA losses at corner with low-cost, supplementary signings and find long-term answers in the draft-Hal: Bears and Patriots...CONTINUE THE REBUILDING PROCESS
