Big games this weekend as the NFL moves toward mid-season. There's my top five. Peter King's on the right.

0:10.5

He's got the Chiefs at number one. I've got them at number four. And he's got the Seahawks all the way down at number five.

0:15.5

I've got them at number one. But we agree on one thing, the Titans at number two and the Titans hosting the Steelers.

0:23.2

The first game, Peter, that was rescheduled because of COVID-19 issues.

0:27.6

And actually, it's better now than it would have been a few weeks ago because the Steelers are 5 and

0:33.6

the Titans are 5 and 0.

0:35.7

And it feels like these are two of the best teams in the league,

0:40.5

two of the best teams in the conference. Whoever wins is going to be one of the only remaining

Well, you know, Mike, you consider that, you know, Tannehill, since he took over the job one year ago this week,

1:28.2

is the highest rated quarterback in the NFL, and he's number one in yards per attempt,

1:32.2

which is a respected stat by offensive people in the league.

1:35.8

I think the one thing about this game that really is interesting,

1:39.9

1:43.5

And now you look at Tannahill.

1:45.3

You know, to me, Tannahill, who would have thought, you know, basically Tannahill and
