NFL Divisional Round Preview: No. 1 seeds Broncos and Seahawks join the fray; Drake Maye faces scary Texans defense and Caleb Williams tries to outduel Rams

from Between the Tackles · host BurgTheGoalie

Burg and Manish react to Mike Tomlin's stunning departure from the Steelers before breaking down four marquee Divisional Round playoff matchups. Can Josh Allen carry the Bills to another road win against the top-seed Broncos? Or will Sean Payton and Bo Nix exact revenge from their blowout playoff loss in Buffalo last season? Sam Darnold takes center stage in a Week 18 rematch against the injury-riddled 49ers. Kyle Shanahan's team laid an egg a few weeks ago, but rides the momentum from a Wildcard upset over the defending Super Bowl champion Eagles. Drake Maye and the Patriots face their toughest test yet against a ferocious Texans defense led by Will Anderson, Jr. Can the Texans rely on the turnover-prone C.J. Stroud to help them advance to their first conference championship game in franchise history? Are the cardiac Bears a team of destiny? Caleb Williams tries to pull another rabbit out of the hat against the high-powered Rams. Sean McVay will lean on Matthew Stafford, Puka Nuca and Devante Adams to help L.A. get one step closer to the Super Bowl. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
