Four seconds left. Second in goal. Here is Williams. He's got to throw it to the end zone.

Clock has expired. Williams keeps the play alive. He's looking. He's got to get rid of it.

Retreating, he throws incomplete. It's over. And the Niners have won.

That was a ball game last night. That's for sure, man. Two really high level head coaching,

offensive coordinated, offensive football teams going toe to toe in a game that ended 42,

38 at the two-yard line with Caleb Williams running out of room, chucking one into the end zone,

ended falling incomplete.

That caps the Sunday from week 17, but there's actually a very meaningful game tonight in the NFL standings and in the playoff picture.

More on that coming up.

Good morning. Max is here with me. I'm here. Ben will be on with us.

You'll hear my conversation with Jay Gruden on Friday about not only the Washington-Dallas Christmas Day game, but really the plan for the offseason as it relates to fixing this wretched

defensive football situation. If you watched football over the weekend, man,

this is the year where defense really came back. I understand that Philadelphia won a Super Bowl

led by its defense last year. And that happened. There's no doubt that that happened. In the year

before, Kansas City very much

won a Super Bowl by playing great defense in the postseason, especially when they shut down,

kind of shut down the Ravens and the bills on the way to their Super Bowl win. But this year,

man, you saw it this weekend.

It started on Saturday afternoon.

How good are the Houston Texans right now because of that defense?

They overcame C.J. Stroud throwing two of the biggest boneheaded picks deep in his own territory.

All right.
