The Dez Bryant Non-Catch / Peyton’s Playoff Magic Continues — Papa’s Football Pod

Oh my God, Peyton really was playing injured! Just look at that ghastly wound! What a warrior! Wait, he'd been playing with a leg injury? Well then...never mind.

Oh my God, Peyton really was playing injured! Just look at that ghastly wound! What a warrior! Wait, he’d been playing with a leg injury? Well then…never mind.

Dez Bryant’s catch / non-catch and Peyton Manning’s horrid playoff performance made for another drama-filled slate of games. Add to the mix another slate of coaching hirings and firings, and it was one more action-packed NFL weekend that requires the analysis of two grossly unqualified individuals such as yours truly and co-host Howard. Enjoy!

Behold Andy Dalton, the patron saint of first round playoff exits.

Behold Andy Dalton, the patron saint of first round playoff exits.

Oh, Andrew Dalton. The man whose face is synonymous with first round playoff exits worked his magic again, getting the Bengals to the postseason only to euthanize them as soon as he did.

Please share on social media. Everyone is getting sick of your goddamn clickbait link posts. Mix it up a little.

It was Black Monday in the NFL, meaning the heads of several general managers and coaches rolled, with more firings certainly to come. We also discuss the 2014 NFL season playoff picture, and make our week-by-week playoff picks (because that’s never been done before in the history of sports radio).

Why Does God Hate the Arizona Cardinals? — PFP Week 16

A picture of Jetto and the Highwayman? Relating to this week's NFL news? It'll make sense once you listen to the episode.

A picture of Jetto and the Highwayman? Relating to this week’s NFL news? It’ll make sense once you listen to the episode.

A month ago, it was a slam-dunk that the Arizona Cardinals would, at the very least, make a deep run into the postseason, boasting a solid offense and amazing defense. Now, with their backup quarterback Drew Stanton gone on top of Carson Palmer leaving for the year, they seem doomed to one-and-done status in the postseason. I’m not saying their situation is hopeless, but, if I were a fan in Arizona, I would be asking a little bit of this.

We also dissect the playoff race in the AFC North, if the Buffalo Bills’ defense can carry it to a wildcard, and the less-than-stellar debut of Johnny Manziel.

Jeff Fisher Coin Toss-Trolls the Redskins — PFP Week 15

Look, I’m a Washington Redskins fan and I’ll die a Redskins fan. I was born in DC. That was my shit luck of the draw. But even I can appreciate and even love the stunt Jeff Fisher pulled with his choice of players to participate in the coin toss for last Sunday’s Rams-Redskins game. Hear all about the stunt, in addition to who’s making strong playoff cases for themselves going in to the season’s final games on the latest episode of Papa’s Football Podcast.

Aaron Rodgers Is the Juggernaut, Bitch! — Papa’s Football Podcast Week 14

This isn't Aaron Rodgers trying out for some Starsky & Hutch revival. It's actually some British comedian by the name of Tom Wrigglesworth. I just found the image sufficiently bizarre and wanted to share to commemorate Rodgers' amazing Sunday performance.

This isn’t Aaron Rodgers trying out for some Starsky & Hutch revival. It’s actually some British comedian by the name of Tom Wrigglesworth. I just found the image sufficiently bizarre and wanted to share to commemorate Rodgers’ amazing Sunday performance.

It’s a little late this week, but it happens. Enjoy the latest Papa’s Football Podcast, discussing whether or not Aaron Rodgers is already the GOAT, if we support Johnny Manziel riding the bench again this week in favor of Brian Hoyer and just how screwed the Arizona Cardinals seem to be without Carson Palmer. We also preview the playoff picture and the games to come this weekend. If you like football and dirty comedy, enjoy. If you don’t, I feel for you. I truly do.

Odell Beckham Jr. Catches Ball, Our Hearts. Aww. — PFP Week 13

Did anybody mention that catch Odell Beckham Jr. made over the weekend? Oh, they did? Ad nauseam? Well then, carry on. The Green Bay Packers took over the NFC North, Dominic Raiola openly went for an opponents’ knees and RGIII just kept on shoveling. It was a great week for the NFL, with plenty of close games as the grains of sand in this season’s hourglass run low. We recap, then move on to all you need to know about this weekend’s upcoming games, including a special preview of the Thanksgiving Day slate of matchups.

Gronk Dances As the Redskins Burn–Papa’s Football Podcast Week 12

The New England Patriots had a banner Sunday night, smashing the Indianapolis Colts early and hard. Rob Gronkowski did the majority of the damage, and even took a break from the carnage to treat the world to this sassy little dance. Looks nice being part of a winning team, doesn’t it?

…Not that I would know. For my Redskins were thoroughly shamed by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, a team I had, on multiple occasions, called the worst in the league. You know how I felt watching that game? The opposite of what Mr. Gronk felt during his Sunday sashay. It was something along the lines of this.

We also cover the rest of the weekend’s news, from the Rams upsetting the Broncos to the Atlanta Falcons sitting atop the NFC South…at 4-6. What a dumpster fire that division is. Enjoy, share, subscribe to and review the latest episode of Papa’s Football Podcast!

Carson Palmer’s ACL Hates Contracts–PFP Week 11

Baby Carson Palmer looks disturbingly similar to adult Bud Cort.

Baby Carson Palmer looks disturbingly similar to adult Bud Cort.

On December 29h, 2005, Carson Palmer signed a $119 million deal with the Cincinnati Bengals. 10 days later, he tore his ACL. Last Friday, Palmer signed a $50 million dollar deal for three years with the Arizona Cardinals. That Sunday, he tore his ACL. The moral of the story? Carson Palmer has commitment issues. At least his anterior cruciate ligament does. Are the Arizona Cardinals, considered last week the class of the NFC, doomed without him? What three people in this country bet on the New York Jets to beat the Pittsburgh Steelers and just how rich are they now? Is the Seattle Seahawks’ mascot flying off into the stands and sinking its talons into the fans, as it did on Sunday, as funny as I find it?
