The NFL season is complete! In one of the most dominant Superbowl performances in history, the Eagles dismantled the dynasty of the Chiefs. The “threepeat” is no more and Mahomes is mortal. Jalen Hurts and the Eagles D were just way too much for their postseason competition and we break down how it all happened in the final act. Hint: coaching matters.

Plus, we get a live look of the entire Superbowl production as our own House from the SMQBs was there!

As with all Superbowls the football game isn’t the only thing. We check in on our prop bets. And we round robin our favorite ads.

Lots of feel good stories this week make for some good Lassos and a couple of buzzers too! Check out the Lombardi of pods!!

We have reached the final stage in the NFL, and the cherished Lombardi is up for grabs! Will it be the 3-peat of Reid, Mahomes and the Chiefs? Or can Saquon and the Eagles D complete some unfinished business in the rematch of Supe LVII. The boys break it down! Super Bowl LIX has all the makings of a titanic defensive battle.

What would a SuperBowl be without the Prop Bets?? The gang gives you the lowdown on some can’t miss opportunities. We’ll even give you the first song to be played by Kendrick Lamar at the halftime show! Our very own House will be on the scene rooting on his Birds and trying to take first, not last!

Then, play Taps music for the Dallas Mavericks and poor Pope. The jaws remain on the floor in this all time head scratching trade of Luka Doncic for AD and a bag of chips. What is happening in the NBA?!?

Plus, we have quite the roundhouse punch and kicks, along with some tearjerking lassos and some buzzer beaters too. House got the NFC Championship so he gets to shout out to you all this week, GO BIRDS!!! (The opinions of House are his and his alone and do not represent the opinions of the SMQBs.)

The NFL Divisional Round is in the books and the Final Four is set! And Washington has Crashed the Party! Is Mahomes getting special calls? To be the man you have to beat the man, and for now, no one has dethroned the mighty Chiefs! Even Travis Kelce turned it back. What is the reason different QBs get different calls?

Why aren't all penalties review? What is CJ Stroud's current status? Are you buying or selling? Mahomes is now 7 for 7 in going to the Conference Championship Game. Jayden Daniels is the future of the NFL. Did Mark Andrews single-handedly lose the game for Baltimore? Or is Lamar equally at fault?

Will the supporting case step up in the AFC Championship game? Was Eagles v. Rams played in a snow globe? Is Saquon one of the best Philly athletes of all time? Conference Championship Predictions!

College Football National Championship! Will it be ND or Ohio State? Can ND hang with them? Or is Ohio State just too dominate! Blue blood v. blue blood!

More drama in college sports as Wisconsin and Miami go to blows over Xavier Lucas and Title IX applies to College revenue sharing.

Punchable Face, Buzzers, and Pour Outs!

Super Wild Card Weekend is in the books! Or was it super boring wild card weekend? Blowouts all around!

The Ravens run wild. Herbert lays another egg! Jordan Love can't get it done, but Saquon can! Is CJ Stroud Back?

And then there was a good game! The Commanders do it again! Another bananas walk off win. You can't make this up! But do they stand a chance?

Who is House rooting for tonight? Do the Eagles want to see the Rams or Vikings? Is Baker still a franchise QB?

We have a college football final! The great Notre Dame v. the great Ohio State! Big time blue bloods, but an outsized Vegas line!

Punchable Faces! Lasso! Buzzers!
