Ballinesian | Ep 190 - Chargers bounced, NFL Divisional Round preview, Mike Tomlin resigns from Steelers

BALLINESIAN PODCAST ON THE POLYTICKIN NETWORKWelcome to the Balliensian Podcast. Samoans talking sports. Happy Birthday to Coach Forest!Let's get into it. This episode, we'll start with the Chargers 3-16 Wildcard round loss in New England. The Chargers were unable to capitalize on a good start, slowly but surely watching their playoff lives slip away as the Patriots defense confounded and confused the Chargers' offensive line, eventually sacking Justin Herbert six times. After another underwhelming Wildcard performance, the Chargers released OC Greg Roman on Tuesday. We will go through each of the Divisional Round games and give our picks: The Bills travel to Denver, the Niners head north to Seattle, the Texans and Patriots prepare for a defensive showcase in New England, and the Rams head to Chicago as a 3.5-point favorite against the Bears.Steelers longtime head coach Mike Tomlin resigned Tuesday. After 19 years and no losing seasons, Tomlin reportedly has a analyst job at FOX in his back pocket and can semi-retire while still supplying his football experience for the betterment of all. Or he could coach again immediately for one of the seven other NFL teams that are without a head coach.Thanks for tuning in!
