3 & Out - Rams and Patriots WIN, Harbaugh in a New York State of Mind
Sharp or Square - NFL DIVISIONAL WEEKEND REACTIONS: Rams-Bears, Texans-Patriots, Broncos-Bills, Niners-Seahawks
And then there were four! The second round of the 2026 NFL playoffs are over, and Chad Millman and Simon Hunter dive into their betting results from Divisional Weekend, checking in on the gambling action after four thrilling postseason games. Together they recap today's hideous contest between the Houston Texans and New England Patriots, as two young quarterbacks C.J. Stroud and Drake Maye battled amidst countless turnovers and general sloppy play in the snow.
They also cover the overtime game that just wrapped between the Los Angeles Rams and Chicago Bears in frigid Soldier Field, as a Caleb Williams miracle touchdown to Cole Kmet wasn't quite enough against likely NFL MVP Matt Stafford. They also discuss the Saturday slate, as we hear our host's recap of another instant classic Buffalo Bills playoff heartbreaker. The Buffalo Bills lose to the Denver Broncos in overtime as reigning MVP Josh Allen falls short versus Bo Nix, who is now lost for the rest of the postseason with an ankle injury.
And finally, we hear about a dominate effort in the Emerald City as Sam Darnold and the Seattle Seahawks crush the San Francisco 49ers. All of this, plus their Shame On You and Heroes of the Week, as well as a quick Conference Championship weekend sneak peak, all in one live episode. #Volume

Richard Sherman Podcast - 49ers-Seahawks REACTION: Seattle destroys San Fran & Bills-Broncos ends in controversy | Richard Sherman Podcast
Richard Sherman shares his excitement over an explosive Saturday Divisional Round, where the Seattle Seahawks completely dominated the San Francisco 49ers from start to finish, delivering one of the most lopsided playoff performances of the year. Sherm breaks down how Mike Macdonald’s defense dismantled Kyle Shanahan’s offense, forcing turnovers, shutting out the 49ers in the end zone, and physically imposing its will in every phase of the game. Meanwhile, Kenneth Walker powered the Seahawks' offense with a massive three-touchdown performance, and Sam Darnold did exactly what was needed in a commanding playoff win. Seattle’s “Dark Side” defense sends a bold message to the NFL as the clear Super Bowl favorite heading into the NFC Championship. Sherm also reacts to the wild Bills vs. Broncos matchup, including Josh Allen’s late-game heroics, Bo Nix’s injury, and the controversial overtime call that ended Buffalo’s season.
