The Roundup Podcast

On today’s show, it’s more about the results than the method, and while a relatively lackluster Divisional Round of the NFL Playoffs didn’t have us on the edge of our seats, we were rewarded with some marquee matchups for the Conference Championships. MVP candidate QBs lead three of the remaining teams, highlighted by the blockbuster matchup of Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs vs Joe Burrow and the Bengals, while Jalen Hurts and the Eagles are set to host rookie QB Brock Purdy and the Niners. Mahomes added to his legacy by returning from a serious high ankle sprain to help his team advance against the Jags, but how healthy will he be when he faces Joe Burrow and the Bengals, fresh off a dominant performance against the Bills and the subject of “legend” talk himself? Meanwhile, the Niners D has been impregnable but the moment of truth has arrived for Purdy, as he faces his toughest test against the leagues best regular season team in Philly. There’re only 2 games this Sunday, but they’re both headliners. Plus, you knew we weren’t gonna be able to go without talking some NBA; I mean, I know it’s Playoff time in the NFL but the NBA snuck some low-key great matchups in for us on Sunday, and with our Warriors still in Limbo, the Kings still rolling and trade season upon us, we’d be remiss if we didn’t at least check in with the Association. So sit back, the NFL Conference Championship matchups are set as the NBA season heads towards the All-Star break and we’re breaking down how it’s all unfolding, next on the Roundup Podcast so let’s get rolling . . .
