Summary

Our NFL regular season preview with our old friend Bill Barnwell is so big that we couldn’t even fit everything into one episode. So in today’s edition, we talk all things AFC. In the East, there’s Josh Allen and the Bills trying to finally get over the hump, the Dolphins are finally going all-in on the Tua Tagovailoa experiment, there’s whatever the hell is going on with the offense in New England, and the Jets are also a football team. In the group of death, aka the AFC West, there should be no shortage of offensive firepower with Patrick Mahomes, Justin Herbert, Derek Carr, and Russell Wilson at the helm. The Baltimore Ravens look to bounce back in the AFC North after injuries derailed their 2021 campaign and Lamar Jackson enters his contract year, while the Bengals try to make it back to the Super Bowl. And in the AFC South, a new regime in Jacksonville hopes to get the most out of second-year QB Trevor Lawrence…and Bill explains why he thinks the Tennessee Titans are one of the teams most likely to decline in 2022. Make sure to listen again tomorrow for Bill’s preview of the NFC. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

0:15.6	In all seriousness, there is a story
0:17.8	about how I earn those points
0:20.0	that I do need to explain to you.
0:21.7	Oh, no.
0:25.7	I've been working at ESPN for 10 years,
0:27.6	this October, which is mind-blowing.
0:29.7	Congratulations.
0:30.6	Statistic of its own, thank you very much.
0:32.9	But I have been giving, like, takes about football
0:36.4	on all these platforms for about a decade now
0:39.0	in my go-to strategy, this entire time
0:42.2	has essentially been to just go and look up
0:45.2	what Bill Barnwell thinks about something.
0:47.8	And then, like, maybe if I have the energy,
