Guaranteed Human.

Welcome to NFL Daily, where we are not one of the nine organizations trying to hire

0:12.8

John Harbaugh right now.

0:14.1

I am Greg Rosenthal, and I'm here in the Chris Wesleying podcast studio with my friend friend Patrick Claibon and joining us from the UK,

0:26.1

lovely Manchester, our friend, Ali Connolly, it's not Saturday, but this is the wild card preview.

0:32.0

And I think it's a perfect time for the sickos to come out.

0:35.4

I'm looking forward to this one.

0:36.5

Is this the best weekend of the year for the NFL, Ollie? How would you rank them?

0:42.9

I would rank this first this season. I traditionally agree the divisional round is the

0:47.0

best weekend. I think this season with the matchups we have, it's a ridiculously loaded

0:52.1

slate with how even all the teams are. So I think this year,

0:54.6

this is the best week of football. I agree with that because this is a unique season in which

0:59.9

I can see any of the AFC teams making the Super Bowl except for the Steelers. And I can see

1:06.1

any teams in the playoffs winning the Super Bowl except who would you cross off? You're trying to make me say it, Greg. I see what's taking place here. Okay. Well, it's an interesting, because someone asked me, like, who's your, I haven't really thought about, like, who you're going to pick to win the Super Bowl. But the only teams that would really surprise me winning the Super Bowl would be Pittsburgh. Okay. I threw that. Carolina,

1:30.4

certainly. I'd throw in Chicago and San Francisco. And even Green Bay, I guess, would surprise me in the

1:37.5

end because the NFC is a little deeper. But that means that there's nine teams right now that wouldn't

1:42.0

really surprise me that much if they won this. Yeah, it would be the two incredible Cinderella runs and everybody else you know it's it's a Super Bowl champion but they won't like make a movie in 40 years about like like they would the Steelers or the Panthers and the divisional round is great i think i still would go with week one is always to me is always like the most exciting because it's just, it's just an explosion.

2:02.2

And you have, and you have so much ahead of you.

2:03.9

But right now, we're going to go through each one of these games.

2:07.0

We're going to start in the NFC.

2:10.2

And we'll start with the biggest point spread, I guess.
