Welcome to the athletic football show.

I'm Robert Mays, joining me tonight.

It's my good friend, Nate Tice.

Nate, how you doing, buddy?

I'm doing very well. I found a sweatshirt in the closet, so that put me in a good mood today. And I can wear that because Wisconsin basketball is playing well, so I feel some pride wearing it right now. But I am doing very well. Awesome, week 18, starting with Saturday into Sunday. Great action. Every game was fun. Yeah, a lot of interesting things to talk about. Entering Wild Card Week, which is going to be fantastic. I know we're going to be talking about that, but great, great, great, great, week 18. Good way to wrap it up. Fantastic weekend of football. Colts Texans was everything I wanted it to be last night.

Just just move forward. They'll let you know. Don't worry about it. You don't have to concern yourself bad. He it twice. He did it twice on that final drive. He's, yeah, he's everything. He's everything. Professor Chaos was in full effect. We got it early. We usually get that, we got it early. It hasn't even gotten to the playoffs yet. We got a nice little sampling of week 18. It's like, we got more of this to come. Cannot wait. A lot of the chaotic

energy from the bills, but a lot of the good that comes with the Buffalo bills as they wrap up

the two seed with a huge win against Miami. They will win the AFC East. They will host a

playoff game. They will play at home until the AFC championship game, all shit that absolutely
