| 0:39.4 | What's up, everybody? Welcome to The Season with Peter Schrager. I'm Peter Schrager. I'm on Good Morning Football, Monday to Friday, and the NFL network. I'm on Fox NFL kickoff on Sundays. We're entering the divisional round of the playoffs. But before we get to all that and to our guests, I just wanted to really go a little deeper on what occurred on Monday in Arizona and what the Rams and the Cardinals pulled off. I say the Cardinals because I think |

| 1:32.9 | a division rival in the LA Rams and did so with no complaints and with no second thoughts. As for the |
| 1:39.5 | Rams. Incredible. Incredible in that on the Tuesday prior, they are, in many cases, evacuating their homes, |
| 1:49.9 | as so many of those ram staffers live on the west side of L.A., and many live in Malibu, |
| 1:56.9 | and some I know live in the Palisades and Altadena. |
| 2:05.5 | They were evacuating their homes in many ways, and if not, they were at least involved in what was going on in Los Angeles that we were all on the East Coast watching from afar. |
