00:03 Here's the NFC playoff picture after week 16

00:07 and all the action that we saw here.

00:09 Obviously, the Niners lost to the Ravens on Monday night,

00:11 but they're still 11-4.

00:13 They're at the top.

00:13 Eagles and Lions, all 11-4.

00:16 Lions have won the North.

00:17 They're good to go.

00:19 The Eagles, of course, are a game up on the Cowboys,

00:21 and they play the Cardinals and the Giants to finish out.

00:24 So they're going to win the East.

00:26 As far as the wild cards go, Joe,

00:29 the Cowboys are going to be the first wild card.

00:30 The Rams and the Seahawks are the 8-7 teams right now

00:35 that would be in if the season ended today.

00:38 The Vikings, the Falcons, the Packers,

00:40 and the Saints are all hanging by a thread at 7-8.

00:45 Bucs can win the NFC South with a win over the Saints

00:48 this Sunday.

00:49 They are 8-7.

00:50 That's incredible, huh?

00:51 Baker and the crew getting it done.

00:54 Boat race in Jacksonville this past weekend,

00:56 unbelievable in terms of how the defense is playing.

00:59 I will say, I know you called it, Baker.

01:02 Feel strong.

01:03 Feel good about that game.

01:05 I know you got me with the Jags.

01:07 They're dead to me, too.

01:08 He's dead to me.

01:09 Trevor, Etienne, Peterson, the whole group, totally dead to me.

01:14 But that being said, I don't think Seattle gets there.

01:17 I think there isn't one position open.

01:20 I'm not sold on that offense as a whole, which, you know,

01:24 I lean to Green Bay, Carver.

01:25 I still think Green Bay has the best shot because they have the

01:28 best quarterback of that group, Jordan Love.

01:31 I know they struggled with the defense in regards to Charlotte

01:36 and Carolina this past weekend, but they still put up 33.

01:40 Give me Jordan Love and Green Bay to sneak in there.

01:43 Well, that's fine, Joe.

01:44 But then I'm going to ask you it this way.

01:47 Who's Seattle losing to?

01:48 Because they obviously have their win ahead with two weeks

01:51 to go.

01:52 They have the Steelers at home in Seattle at Lumen this week,

01:56 and then they finish with Arizona the last game of the

01:59 season.

01:59 Where's Seattle getting tripped up for somebody to pass them?

02:03 Well, I mean, you could never say the Helter Skelter,

02:06 Pittsburgh Steelers can't be.

02:08 I mean, come on.

02:09 I'm just saying.

02:10 I mean, it's not like you know.

02:12 It's possible.

02:14 I mean, again, I'm not sold on Seattle, and I know they beat

02:18 Philly and they got, you know, they stepped up.

02:21 But for me, I'm not sold on their offense.

02:23 They can be clipped.

02:25 Wouldn't shock me if Arizona clips them too.

02:27 We saw Arizona go on the road to Pittsburgh and knock them

02:30 off.
