NFL Divisional Round Playoffs breakdown, coaching accountability, quarterback decision-making, analytics vs football instincts, and playoff football truth — this is Monday Night Football Blitz on the Sports Chasers Podcast.

In Episode 469, the Sports Chasers crew is joined by Adam & Tony from the Two Bald Guys Sports Podcast for an objective, no-narrative deep dive into the NFL Divisional Round, where turnovers, coaching philosophy, and defensive discipline decided seasons.

We break down Bills vs. Broncos, the ongoing “what is a catch?” debate. NFL controversy, the dangers of analytics-driven play-calling, and why taking points early still matters — especially in playoff conditions.

From CJ Stroud’s regression, Sean McDermott’s coaching future, and 49ers roster flaws, to Caleb Williams’ rise, Rams championship DNA, and a College Football Championship preview, this episode delivers real football context without hot takes.
