Right now, it's just, you just go back and forth as a Bill's Ravens. And I think it's a week-to-week thing now, and we're spoiled by the recency bias. The Bills didn't look that impressive against the Patriots. The Ravens did look that impressive against Steelers. So this week, it's the Ravens. when the bills were scoring 48 to beat the Lions last week, I think it's like, oh, it's the Bills. I like the Steelers, too. The Steelers have lost two in a row in three out of five. Now, the good news is they get a chance to do it on Christmas, and we'll see what the deal is, but I don't feel like the Steelers suddenly are playing their best football right now. The bills beat the Chiefs this year. The Bill's beat the Chiefs this year.

This stubborn, weird, absolutely immovable Chiefs team that never loses and always finds a way. There was exactly one team they couldn't find a way against, and that was the Buffalo Bills and Josh Allen. I got to tell you, it makes me nervous. I'm hearing now, let me get this straight, that his Josh Allen's non-throwing hand has been broken all year. Okay, well, he's been playing great. That's fine. But now his throwing hand is also banged up. So we have two hand injuries. Well, he only has two hands. We need both of them. There's almost important hands in the league right now. I don't like that, especially in the cold at the end of the year when it's his throwing hand, that doesn't make me feel good. And he didn't have that against the chiefs. And then I still

look to it. They found a way to do it. I still, listen, we talked a lot about the Vikings that

in the NFC that there's like kind of a, we're all wary of them. And there's, there's a recent

history where, yeah, you have a good record. but the last time we signed the playoffs, it didn't end well.

I still feel that way about Baltimore, kind of. I've just been so excited about so many Baltimore teams over the years. It doesn't end well. It usually ends shockingly. Now, it's the same for Buffalo, but they beat the Chiefs this year. So I'm going back and forth as we all do. I have a slight edge to Buffalo, although I'm worried about Josh's hands.

The fact that they actually got a victory over this team that no one else can beat, I think it So I'm going back and forth as we all do. I have a slight edge to Buffalo, although I'm worried about Josh's hands.

The fact that they actually got a victory over this team that no one else can beat, I think it has to be the answer.

If you're interested in the offensive rookie of the year, that's over.

That's over. It's done.

It's Jaden Daniels.

He's putting it right next to the Heism.

It's over.

Bo Nix had a great year. Maybe he'll go and get in the playoffs and win a playoff game. That thing is over. The other thing, I was really putting some time into this. I think this is the biggest commanders win in 20 years. I really mean that. Their last playoff win was 05 and it was a wild card win and it was Mark Brunel leading them against Chris Sims. It didn't amount to much. You don't remember it very well. I don't either. With this stakes, with the winning streak they were on at this juncture of the season, at home, with this quarterback, I don't remember a bigger commanders slash, whatever they call win in 20 years from Jaden Daniels. It is that massive. They have the guy. He's going to be here. He's not going anywhere. He was incredible at the end of the game.

And I know there's a massive part of the Eagles who are saying our starting quarterback was out. They didn't talk about it enough on the broadcast. They're not talking about it enough on Good Morning Football. I know your starting quarterback was out. And maybe he'll be again in the game if you see these guys in the playoffs, which you might. I also know that your defense, which is the

strength of this Eagles team, as good as who'll be again in the game if you see these guys in the playoffs, which you might. I also know

that your defense, which is the strength of this Eagles team, as good as the offense is, it's the

defense. They're on the field at the end of the game against a rookie quarterback and had a chance

to make a stop and they couldn't do it. It was the most casual game winning touchdown throw I've

ever seen. And then they just casually got the two-point conversion right after it. All right? We may see this game again, but I'm not hanging some giant 72-point-fond asterix on the commanders when their own quarterback went five touchdowns. And they still had five turnovers and still won. I don't think there's been a bigger win in two decades for this organization. You guys know I talked to Jaden Daniels this week when to get into it later. Part of the conversation we had was Philly's coming. They're coming to Washington. This is different. This is not you playing the Giants. This is not some out of division team. And we talked about, does this feel like Georgia or Bama when you're at LSU? And he totally got it. He understood the weight of the situation, and he won, and he won dramatically in the final minutes. I was blown away by Jane Daniels. I love the commanders right now. Eagles were going to lose eventually. They lost to a new rival, and that is a new rival on the road. It's really cool. We continue to be impressed by Sam Donald. It's time to stop being surprised by Sam Donald.
