Episode 237: Playoff Blues!"

from We Don't Make The Rules Podcast

We recap a weather-soaked NFL weekend as the Patriots take down the Broncos in a game full of missed chances, questionable decisions, and continued struggles from Drake Maye. The hate watch delivers, Jarrett Stidham's turnovers loom large, and a blown fourth-down opportunity shifts the game early. Out west, the Seahawks hold off the Rams behind a big performance from Sam Darnold. We break down the Rams' shaky secondary, special teams issues, and why no weather machine was needed this time. We preview a Patriots vs Seahawks Super Bowl rematch, revisiting the infamous 2014 goal-line interception. Seattle opens as a 4.5-point favorite as two defensive head coaches square off. Quick Hits include Mike McCarthy landing in Pittsburgh, questions around the Eagles OC job, Mike McDaniel named Chargers OC, Shedeur Sanders making the Pro Bowl, and thoughts on the Lakers, LeBron, and Jeanie Buss article. Rule Breakers wraps with Deion Sanders, the Bills owner vs Keon Coleman, Anthony Edwards thoughts on the recent events in Minnesota, LeBron's MLK "homage", Inside the NBA, Kanye West, and prayers for the East Coast.
