One hour from now my final blazing five of the year it is a wild card weekend

There's going to be an upset but none of you fans of favorite teams want to hear that so our final blazing five of the year we're off back to back winning weeks not one of our better seasons great year betting college

My best ever in fact for college NFL not so much joy Taylor is joining me this is one of my favorite weekends of the year where you get

Supposed favorites at home playing underdogs and in the last four years in the last four years of this weekend one road team has lost by more than seven it's crazy it's crazy I think there's a possibility for a couple of

Oh I it's three four year of parity look at weeks look at week 18 it was nonsense yeah I know this is the jack speed the Colts yes badly badly so I want to start with this David

Cully got fired yesterday the Houston Texans coach and a lot of people were very upset that leaves now one African American head coach Mike

Tomlin in the entire NFL year when 70% of the players are black that's not good that's bad the NFL's got to do a better job and here's the good news

Mike Zimmer I contend excellent coach but he's kind of rigid they were trending the wrong way

And I think his voice got tired Vic Fangio I contend top three defensive coach in the league but they've got a new owner coming in and he couldn't get the offense right

Urban Meyer it was a bad fit second best college coach I've ever seen immature off field actions didn't work in the NFL just couldn't pivot from college to the pros

John Gruden he's won a super bowl ugly email surface he's fired and then David Cully

Well, it is the weirdest ownership group in the NFL. It's the worst ownership group in the NFL and to be fair

He was always a stopgap guy when he got hired. He'd never been a coordinator. I was shocked

I said this won't last long. I didn't love the hire, but it should be noted David Cully said today
