Summary
The NFL salary cap is crap! If you don't know that by now, we don't know what to tell you: if an NFL team says they're making a move for "cap reasons," it's a lie. However, of *course* the money matters! But it's all in the guarantees!!! On today's show, we're sifting through the NFL contracts and coming up with skill-position players we think could get the axe this offseason because they are due to make "too much" in real actual salary. Let's go through a bunch of names! Plus, let's talk about the NFL coaching vacancies! Guest: Ben Gretch of the Stealing Signals Newsletter.

| 0:13.6 | Welcome! |
| 0:16.5 | Hey, everybody, welcome in. |
| 0:18.8 | My name is Chris, and this is less a show and more, a mood. |
| 0:24.0 | Hello there, you yacht possums. |
| 0:25.7 | How are you today? |
| 0:26.7 | Thank you so much for listening. |
| 0:28.8 | So happy to be with you today, whether you're listening right away, right after I record on Thursday, or maybe sometime later. |

| 1:29.9 | almost done or maybe done, nine teams are making a change at head coach. Although by the time |
| 1:36.6 | you hear the sound of my voice, it seems like one of those vacancies might already be filled. |
| 1:41.3 | Two we already knew about, because they happened mid-season, the Titans and the Giants. |
