The 2022 NFL regular season is at its midway point. With eight (or nine) games in the books for teams in an eighteen-week season, it's time to take the pulse of the league and hand out some hardware. After checking in once more on the surprising hire of Jeff Saturday by the Indianapolis Colts, Charles Robinson , Charles McDonald & Jori Epstein devote most of this week's podcast to handing out a se...

Good rule of thumb: Don't make any predictions if Indianapolis Colts owner Jim Irsay is involved. That was this podcast's mistake a mere 24 hours ago, when we closed out the Sunday night recap proclaiming that Irsay would be patient with head coach Frank Reich after a disastrous 3-5-1 start to the 2022 season. In actuality, the opposite happened: the Colts fired Reich early on Monday and in an eve...

For a while there on Sunday night, it looked like rookie quarterback Malik Willis and the Tennessee Titans were going to outlast Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs in Arrowhead Stadium.

Charles...

Aaron Rodgers & Tom Brady lost again this weekend as the Green Bay Packers and Tampa Bay Buccaneers both fell to 3-4 as their teams near the halfway mark of the season. Charles Robinson & Frank Schwab kick off the Sunday night podcast with a question that needs to be legitimately asked at this point: are Rodgers and Brady hitting a...

Charles Robinson & Frank Schwab are back for their weekly Sunday night NFL recap. Leading things off, the guys start the show with Jalen Hurts & the Philadelphia Eagles staying undefeated against the division rival Dallas Cowboys.

Two Monday Night Football games. Two very different instances of a player shoving a non-player to the ground, resulting in legal action.

Charles Robinson & Jori Epstein kick off t...

Charles & Frank react to that game, the three impressive...

The biggest hit on Monday night's game between the Los Angeles Rams & San Francisco 49ers wasn't recorded in the official stat sheet.
