Welcome to Moot the Six.

I am Bucky Brooks.

And once again, my man, LZ, Lance Erlon, is joining me on the Moot of Six podcast.

And today, Lance, I got to tell you, man, like, I think one of the things that we do, we got scheduled releases on the horizon, but one of the things teams love to do is they look at a team that had a tremendous amount of success and they say, hey, we can do this, we can be next.

So last year in the Super Bowl, we saw the New England Patriots kind of come from nowhere to be a team that was in the Super Bowl.

And we also saw a team on the outside of the Seattle Seahawks make their way to not only go to the Super Bowl, but to win the Super Bowl. So what I want to do today is we're going to break up the two conferences, the NFC and the AFC. And today we're going to look at the NFC, which teams there were out of the playoffs could be in the mix to make a deep postseason run this season. Good with that? You good with that? NFC? I'm good with it. Okay. All right, let's start because I think both of us have been kind of hot on this team. How about the New York Giants? Why are you bullish on the Giants making their way back into the tournament? I,, so I think they, first of all, it's going to be a very competitive conference, very competitive. I think Washington will be a factor. I think the Giants, the Cowboys, the Eagles, I think it's much more competitive than it was last year. I'll give you a couple reasons. Number one, it starts with John Harbaugh. John Harbaugh understands what it

takes to win at a high level. He did it for a long time. And I think bringing over players like,

you know, Patrick Ricard, Isaiah Likeley, who know the way that he likes, especially Ricard.

You know, he's kind of a very unique piece that fit in very nicely over there with Harbaugh and the Ravens for all those

years. I believe that he's going to get the Harbaugh way locked in over there. And I don't think

the roster's all that bad. The roster for me, you know, I like the move of Reese, Mauna,

Colton Hood in terms of the draft.

But then I got to be honest with you.

I wasn't that high on Jackson Dart.

And me personally, in watching him last year, I thought he, not only did he perform better than I expected, but I saw a player who had a confidence level

and a level poise that I believe is very real.

Like there's nothing that he's trying to put on a face or put on a show.

He's got all that swag that we saw in college and then at the combine, he had that,

remember that chain, he was showing out on the field at the

combine. But he got in the league and he stayed the same guy. And it was funny to watch him vibe
