Summary

Rich and the guys react to the thrilling finish to Ravens vs Steelers in the NFL’s regular season finale to determine the winner of the AFC North. Jaguars head coach Liam Coen and Rich discuss Jacksonville winning the AFC South in his first year on the job, the MVP-level play from franchise QB Trevor Lawrence the 2nd half of the season, what WR Jacobi Meyers has brought to the team after his midseason trade, the challenges the Jags’ stout defense will face in Buffalo Bills’ reigning NFL MVP Josh Allen and league leading rusher James Cook in their Wild Card showdown, what advice he has for potential first-time head coaches entering the coaching carousel interview process, and more. Rich weighs in on Pete Carroll’s one-and-done 3-14 season with the Las Vegas Raiders, and explains why Tom Brady and Mark Davis should do whatever it takes to hire Indiana’s Curt Cignetti.
