Summary

In seven days, the 2020 NFL season kicks off in Kansas City as Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs face off against Deshaun Watson and the Texans. We can’t believe it either.Charles Robinson & Terez Paylor devote the majority of the podcast to previewing the 2020 season. Who will win each division? Who will the three (yes, three) wild card teams be from each conference? Our experts weigh in on the AFC (4:15) followed by the NFC (28:40).On Thursday night, reports surfaced that the New Orleans Saints could be interested in making a move for free agent defensive end Jadeveon Clowney. Terez & Charles talk about why going all-in on Clowney means the Saints are going all-in for a Super Bowl in 2020. (1:01:05)As a special treat, the guys close out the show with an even more special guest. He defiantly stood up to a skeptical government board and spoke out against the cruelest of evils. Yes, Ander Christensen went viral this week imploring the city of Lincoln, Nebraska to call boneless wings what they really are: chicken tenders. Ander joins the pod to talk about his crazy week and his fight for proper chicken meat nomenclature. It’s the interview of the millennium.

0:15.4	NFL writer Torez Paler. Here were my main man and fellow senior
0:19.4	NFL writer Charles Robinson and Charles, it is December just one week until the
0:25.5	2020 NFL season will kick off.
0:28.7	Bro we are this close it feels like we've made it are Are you feeling that way? Oh, you just, we just ruined it.
0:35.8	That was just, we just destroyed it right there, man. You just tanked the entire tomorrow.
0:44.4	2800 positive coverage.
0:47.4	This lab failures across America.
0:52.0	Yeah, no, we made it. I mean, I feel like at the very least we're going to get the kickoff, you know, that we've been waiting for. I'm very
1:00.5	excited to kind of see. So I was I was talking to a guy from an
1:05.2	uh, EFC West team and he was like, he genuinely sounded excited. He was like, I'm kind of excited to see what happens with all these basically the cuts and the trades and like all the things that are about to go down as these rosters get finalized. he was like, we don't know anything.

1:54.8	tape than ever on other teams you won't really know who came back in great shape

2:04.8	maybe you bring him in for a workout or whatever, but you won't really know how that guy has
2:09.9	improved as a football player with his eyes until he gets on the field for you.
2:14.7	So I think this is going to be a really interesting season, one that we've mentioned many times,
