Summary
On today’s episode, Jason discusses how a loss to the Denver Broncos - coupled with the injuries to Micah Parsons and Christian Watson - effectively ended the Green Bay Packers season on Sunday, how Josh Allen showed why he is arguably the most feared quarterback in the NFL in a thrilling comeback win over New England, why it's clear that the Kansas City Chiefs need a roster overhaul around Patrick Mahomes in 2026 now that they've officially been eliminated from postseason contention (and Mahomes is out for the year with a torn ACL), the biggest question marks surrounding the Los Angeles Rams and the Seattle Seahawks even as they sit atop the NFC, and whether or not Heisman Trophy winner Fernando Mendoza is really worth of the number one pick in the 2026 NFL Draft.
Finally, J-Mac closes the show with his Best Bets for Monday Night Football and quick lookahead at the NFL Week 16 lines.
