What's up everyone, and welcome back!
We have a special guest this week with the one and only Drew Jay Davis!
Drew played his collegiate career at the University of Oregon, before going on to play in the NFL with the Falcons. Following the end of his playing career, he went back to college as a grad assistant for UCF before heading to UCLA as their Director of Player Development to reconnect with one of his own college coaches, Chip Kelly.
Drew now focuses his time as a certified life and performance coach, assisting players, teams, and coaches on and off the field through his business, Quality over Quantity.
We then recap week 12 of the NFL season, hitting some crucial topics such as:
- Which teams are pretenders or contenders?
- Some teams are on significant losing streaks, will they turn it around?
- MVP tracker: who are the front runners?
- Are we not giving these teams enough credit?
- and so much more!

What's up everyone, and welcome back!
The college football season is ramping up and coming down to the wire across the board, so we had to dive into everything surrounding the sport we know and love.
And who better to have on than Ty Hildenbrandt from the Solid Verbal College Football Podcast to help us break it all down!
We can't look forward without digesting the past, so we start the episode breaking down the wild slate of games and outcomes we saw last weekend.
Then we head over to week 12 and discuss and predict how we see each potential key matchup in the top 25 playing out. Because like I always say, games just mean more in November.
We then share our thoughts on the CFB committee rankings, who the top teams are in each conference, and how we think it will all shake out with three weeks remaining in the regular season.

What's up everyone and welcome back!
Great episode for you this week, despite my audio not being as good as it usually is, with the one and only Cody Roark!
Cody is the Mile High Sports lead reporter covering the Denver Broncos at every practice, home, and away games. He also hosts the daily Locked on Broncos podcast.
We discuss a ton of great storylines this week:
- Broncos are sitting at 5-4 with a chance to make a playoff run, right?
- AFC West could have three playoff teams, so what does the season outlook look like going forward?
- Did we underestimate some teams going into this year? I'm looking at you PIT, MIN, ARI, and ATL
- Trade deadline winners, losers, and everything else in between from a busy deadline
- Are some teams going to tank? I'm looking at you NO, MIA, CLE, and more
- and much more!
