Summary
As Thanksgiving nears and we direct our attention to the playoff picture more and more, it's time to separate the wheat from the chaff. On this episode of The Athletic Football Show, we aren't interested in teams that are merely playoff contenders. We want the true Super Bowl contenders. Robert Mays and David Helman of Fox Sports identify the teams that realistically have it in them to win the Super Bowl on this episode of TAFS.
