Summary

The MMQB’s Albert Breer tells Rich how the NFL players union stepped in to keep the league from cancelling some Week 15 games in the wake of Covid-19 outbreaks so they wouldn’t have to pay players, what the Seahawks’ disappointing 5-9 season bodes for Russell Wilson’s future in Seattle and which teams could be in play to trade for the Super Bowl-winning QB in the offseason, why Joe Judge is likely to keep his job as Giants Head Coach, why the Bears are likely to fire their HC Matt Nagy and shock the world be trading for Saints Head Coach Sean Payton, and his reaction, as an Ohio State alum, to Urban Meyer’s flameout with the Jacksonville Jaguars. Rich and Brockman preview the Bills vs Patriots Week 16 showdown and wonder if we’ll have another wild weather fiasco we saw the first time the two AFC East rivals met in Week 13.   Rich says why the Seahawks should act quickly if and when they decide to trade Russell Wilson and throw around some possible swap scenarios that include Deshaun Watson or Baker Mayfield in Seattle next season.
