Nate Tice & Charles McDonald kick off the new Sunday night edition of Football 301 looking into five of the most interesting results from Week 12.
The Chicago Bears lost yet again close, this time to the division rival Minnesota Vikings. The guys explain why hope is not lost for Chicago as Caleb Williams has continued to finally show improvement under new offensive coordinator Thomas Brown.
Likewise in Carolina, it's been a rough two years for Bryce Young, but in 30-27 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, the former first overall pick may have put together the best game of his career.
Nate & Charles also discuss the Texans falling to Will Levis' Tennessee Titans, a completely crazy fourth quarter between the Washington Commanders and Dallas Cowboys and a Seattle Cardinals win that may have reset the NFC West race.
(2:15) - Williams shows hope in loss to Vikings
(7:20) - Commanders/Cowboys goes crazy in fourth quarter
(14:00) - Rollercoaster Will Levis gives Titans win over Texans
(19:55) - Bryce Young may have had his best game yet against KC

Nate Tice and Matt Harmon take an in-depth look at the middle class of the NFL as they determine whether each playoff-hopeful team should be preparing for a playoff push or packing their bags.
First, the duo start with the news that the New York Jets fired their general manager Joe Douglas. This move was mostly expected, but it really puts in perspective how far this franchise has fallen from the optimism surrounding the Aaron Rodgers acquisition just two offseasons ago. Nate and Matt also discuss whether Rodgers could return (on another team) in 2025.
Moving on to some teams more deserving of attention, Nate and Matt start with teams on the bubble in the AFC playoff race, as they diagnose the Miami Dolphins, Cincinnati Bengals (both sit under 10% playoff odds), Indianapolis Colts and Denver Broncos and decide whether they are ready to make a playoff push or are destined for Cancun.
The NFC race is even tighter than the AFC, as Nate and Matt give their predictions on the Atlanta Falcons and Tampa Bay Buccaneers before attempting to parse out a neck-and-neck NFC West that includes the Arizona Cardinals, Seattle Seahawks, San Francisco 49ers and Los Angeles Rams.
(3:35) Jets fire GM Joe Douglas
(10:05) Playoffs or pack it up: Dolphins
(17:05) Playoffs or pack it up: Bengals
(26:10) Playoffs or pack it up: Colts

Nate Tice is joined by Charles McDonald as they look ahead to Week 10 of the NFL season by deep diving on the biggest matchup of the weekend and giving one thing to watch in every single game.
Nate and Charles start with the Detroit Lions taking on the Houston Texans on Sunday night, as it's hard to see how Houston can stop the Lions from dominating both sides of the ball, but Nate points out that having Joe Mixon on the field makes a big difference. Both predict a Lions win, but there is a scenario where C.J. Stroud can play enough hero ball to keep it close.
Next, Nate and Charles give one thing to watch for every Week 10 matchup as they get into the one interesting matchup in the Munich game, a big rookie quarterback battle, the Pope sending encouraging words to the New Orleans Saints, how Bo Nix can beat the Spagnuolo defense, Jayden Daniels vs. Mike Tomlin, how Aaron Rodgers will attack the Arizona defense and much more.

Nate Tice & Matt Harmon give their reactions to a HUGE day of news around the NFL before dishing out takeaways from Week 6 through the lens of their top ten power rankings.
The duo start with the news that Amari Cooper has been traded to the Buffalo Bills, as both are VERY excited about what Cooper can bring to the Bills offense. Davante Adams was also traded to the New York Jets in a slightly less exciting move, but one that will no doubt help the Jets offense. In other news, Russell Wilson will reportedly get his chance to start for the Pittsburgh Steelers, and Nate and Matt give their thoughts on why the (somewhat perplexing) move was made.
Later, Nate and Matt each made a top ten power rankings list separately, and they announce them live on the show before debating their biggest differences, including the Houston Texans, Green Bay Packers, Baltimore Ravens, Kansas City Chiefs, Minnesota Vikings and more.

Nate Tice and Charles McDonald join forces to preview the best, most interesting and sloppiest matchups ahead of Week 4 of NFL action. The duo start with in-depth previews of the three premiere matchups as they attempt to determine if Geno Smith can keep his hot streak alive against a dangerous Detroit Lions defense, if the Green Bay Packers defense can start catching some of Sam Darnold's inaccurate throws and whether or not the Baltimore Ravens D can stop a humming Buffalo team that hasn't been slowed down yet this season.
Next, Nate and Charles enter Four-Minute Offense to analyze a couple key matchups to keep an eye on, including a hoss fight in Indianapolis and Jalen Hurts against a Tampa Bay defense that's given him fits in the past.
The hosts wrap up with "Slop Watch," where they give you a reason to watch a game you might otherwise turn off, including a chess match in Chicago, the Arizona Cardinals trying to stop Jayden Daniels and a New England Patriots team that just might have the juice to keep it close against the San Francisco 49ers.

Nate Tice is joined by Charles McDonald to give their thoughts and takeaways from Week 3 of NFL action.
