Inside Coverage

In this exciting episode of Inside Coverage, hosts Jason Fitz, Jori Epstein and Frank Schwab dive into the latest coaching news (including some breaking news live on the show) before breaking down this weekend's NFC Championship game. First up, the Chicago Bears have made a big splash by hiring Ben Johnson head coach, but they apparently hired him without meeting him in person. The trio explores the implications of this decision, especially considering Caleb's role in the process and the Bears' desperate need for a fresh start. Next, the breaking news drops that Aaron Glenn is heading to the New York Jets, and the trio give their instant analysis before touching on the uncertainty surrounding the Jacksonville Jaguars' future after firing GM Trent Baalke. Meanwhile, the Las Vegas Raiders are still in search of a head coach after their GM hire, and the team debates potential candidates, including the intriguing prospect of Pete Carroll or Anthony Weaver. The Dallas Cowboys seem to be moving in the direction of Brian Schottenheimer in their head coaching search, despite Kellen Moore offering a potentially higher ceiling.The episode wraps with a preview of the NFC Championship game, where Jori will be braving the cold to watch the action live in Philadelphia. The hosts dive into the concerns surrounding the Philadelphia Eagles’ passing game and discuss how their formula of relying on the run game and a dominant defense could be enough to get them to the Super Bowl. On the other side, Frank gives high praise to Washington’s rising star Jayden Daniels, who might just be the best player on the field Sunday. The gang make their predictions for what promises to be an unforgettable game.(00:45) - Ben Johnson goes to the Chicago Bears(18:55) - Aaron Glenn goes to the New York Jets(22:35) - Jaguars fire Trent Baalke(29:25) - Other coaching news: Las Vegas Raiders, New England Patriots & Dallas Cowboys(56:05) - NFC Championship game preview Subscribe to Inside Coverage on your favorite podcast app: 🎧 Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/3AbfhJc🎧 Spotify: https://spoti.fi/3ymFp3f 📢Yahoo Sports podcast network: https://apple.co/3zEuT ❤️ Inside Coverage would be nothing without the impact of our beloved Terez Paylor, who was a pillar of Yahoo Sports' NFL editorial and podcast coverage.

In this episode of Inside Coverage, Jason Fitz and Frank Schwab are still catching their breath from an exhilarating NFL Divisional Round as they break down the biggest moments from a thrilling weekend of playoff action. The duo start with the Baltimore Ravens’ heartbreaking loss to the Buffalo Bills. Mark Andrews’ crucial drop and unforced turnovers haunted Baltimore, but Fitz and Frank agree it wasn’t all on Lamar Jackson. The conversation continues with a deep dive into the Houston Texans’ close loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, where Fitz defends the Chiefs’ win as a product of solid football, not rigged officiating, and discusses whether K.C. is really as dominant as their record suggests.Moving into the NFC, the Detroit Lions’ disappointing playoff performance raises questions about their coaching staff, while Frank Schwab hypes up rookie QB Jayden Daniels for his impressive season—one of the best in recent memory. The Philadelphia Eagles sneak out a win in the snow, but concerns about their one-dimensionality continue to grow. To wrap up, Fitz and Schwab preview the NFC Championship with a surprising take on the Washington Commanders' chances against the Philadelphia Eagles despite Washington’s defensive struggles.(1:00) - Baltimore Ravens @ Buffalo Bills(12:10) - Houston Texans @ Kansas City Chiefs(28:35) - AFC Championship game early predictions(29:35) - Washington Commanders @ Detroit Lions(43:10) - Los Angeles Rams @ Philadelphia Eagles(54:00) - NFC Championship game early predictionsSubscribe to Inside Coverage on your favorite podcast app: 🎧 Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/3AbfhJc🎧 Spotify: https://spoti.fi/3ymFp3f 📢Yahoo Sports podcast network: https://apple.co/3zEuT ❤️ Inside Coverage would be nothing without the impact of our beloved Terez Paylor, who was a pillar of Yahoo Sports' NFL editorial and podcast coverage.

Jason Fitz & Charles Robinson sort through the top candidates for each of the open NFL head coaching jobs. Could a Mike McCarthy return to the New Orleans Saints maximize Derek Carr’s potential before they enter a rebuild? Aaron Glenn could be an attractive option for the New York Jets, unless he decides to return to a Detroit Lions organization that’s doing just about everything right. After what he’s done to improve the Tampa Bay Buccaneers run game, could Liam Coen revive the Jacksonville Jaguars running with Travis Ettienne and Tank Bigsby?Charles puts a stop to all notions that the Dallas Cowboys could make moves to trade up for Shedeur Sanders, but he does believe they’re seriously considering Deion Sanders as their head coach. Another option for the Cowboys is Kellen Moore, especially since it seems Jerry Jones never really wanted to let him go in the first place. Though it may seem unlikely, is there good reason that Ben Johnson would prefer the Las Vegas Raiders job to the Chicago Bears opening?To wrap, the pair talk through some quarterback drama for the Minnesota Vikings and Cleveland Browns. After two disappointing losses, will the Vikings still consider franchising Sam Darnold or will they move on to J.J. McCarthy? Meanwhile, the Browns seem to have no choice but to draft a QB with the second pick in this year’s draft following Deshaun Watson’s second achilles injury.  (0:59) Frontrunners for coaching jobs(1:02) Mike McCarthy to Saints?(8:05) Aaron Glenn to Jets?(20:58) Liam Coen to Jaguars?(26:20) Could Cowboys draft Shedeur Sanders?(35:30) Kellen Moore to Cowboys?(39:16) Deion Sanders to Cowboys?(43:30) Ben Johnson to Raiders?(49:27) Where will Sam Darnold land?(58:45) Browns need new QB plans Subscribe to Inside Coverage on your favorite podcast app:🎧 Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/3AbfhJc🎧 Spotify: https://spoti.fi/3ymFp3f📢Yahoo Sports podcast network: https://apple.co/3zEuT❤️ Inside Coverage would be nothing without the impact of our beloved Terez Paylor, who was a pillar of Yahoo Sports' NFL editorial and podcast coverage.

In this episode of Inside Coverage, hosts Jason Fitz, Jori Epstein and Frank Schwab go full Christmas Carol as they look into the Dallas Cowboys' past, present and future. The crew start by reacting to the breaking news that Robert Saleh will interview for the vacant head coaching job. Is Saleh the right guy to get the organization over the hump? Next, the hosts step into the Cowboys' past by reflecting on Mike McCarthy’s tenure as head coach. While McCarthy’s regular-season success has been undeniable, the panel debates whether he was truly the coach to break the Cowboys’ playoff drought. Is he the floor raiser Dallas needed, or did the team need someone who could elevate them to the next level?Moving into the Cowboys' present coaching search, the hosts dissect the latest rumors surrounding potential candidates, including the surprise whispers about Deion Sanders and other possible hires like Kellen Moore and Anthony Lynn. Would Moore, who has a deep connection to the team, be able to guide Dak Prescott to greater heights, or does Dallas need a more seasoned coach with the chops to challenge Jerry Jones’ established culture? Finally, the trio peer into the Cowboys' future and what they would want Jerry to look for in their next coach, from someone who could challenge Jerry's established culture to whether or not the next coach needs previous head coaching experience.Later, the focus shifts to the NFL playoffs, with a preview of the AFC Divisional Round matchups. The crew gives their thoughts on the Houston Texans vs. Kansas City Chiefs, examining how Houston’s defensive line could exploit Kansas City’s weaknesses. The hosts also break down the Baltimore Ravens vs. Buffalo Bills, discussing how Lamar Jackson & Derrick Henry could lead the Ravens past the Bills, despite Lamar’s past playoff struggles.(1:00) - Robert Saleh interviews for Cowboys HC job(9:30) - Cowboys' past & the Mike McCarthy era(23:20) - Cowboys' present: potential head coach candidates(32:05) - Cowboys' future: what do the Cowboys need out of their next head coach?(46:00) - Texans @ Chiefs predictions(47:50) - Ravens @ Bills predictionsSubscribe to Inside Coverage on your favorite podcast app: 🎧 Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/3AbfhJc🎧 Spotify: https://spoti.fi/3ymFp3f 📢Yahoo Sports podcast network: https://apple.co/3zEuT ❤️ Inside Coverage would be nothing without the impact of our beloved Terez Paylor, who was a pillar of Yahoo Sports' NFL editorial and podcast coverage.

After a truly hideous, miserable Thursday Night Football game between the Seattle Seahawks and the Chicago Bears, both franchises are left with questions at the QB position. For Chicago, Caleb Williams has issues holding onto the football for too long and oftentimes overlooks the easy play for the dramatic one. Can the Bears organization rely on him to execute their offense regardless of who is hired as head coach? Meanwhile for Seattle, Geno Smith has been good but not great all season long. Is it time to move on from his inconsistency? And if so, is there even a quarterback out there worth trading for? Jason Fitz, Charles Robinson & Frank Schwab answer these questions and more in their breakdown of the game.In this week’s QB Room, C Rob looks at the quarterback situation in Minnesota with Sam Darnold & J.J. McCarthy. Will the Vikings franchise Sam Darnold and punt on McCarthy in light of his unexpected success this season? Or should they let Darnold walk away and fully commit to McCarthy while he’s still on his rookie contract?To wrap, the trio react to Aaron Rodgers’ comments about the Jets needing to be “professional” and discuss if it’s fair for him to call out the Jets when he mishandled the preseason and minicamps. (0:50) Seahawks @ Bears recap(24:23) What should Minnesota do at QB next season?(47:52) Aaron Rodgers comments on Jets 'professionalism' Subscribe to Inside Coverage on your favorite podcast app:🎧 Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/3AbfhJc🎧 Spotify: https://spoti.fi/3ymFp3f📢Yahoo Sports podcast network: https://apple.co/3zEuT❤️ Inside Coverage would be nothing without the impact of our beloved Terez Paylor, who was a pillar of Yahoo Sports' NFL editorial and podcast coverage.

In this episode of Inside Coverage, hosts Jason Fitz and Frank Schwab dive into every game from Week 16 of NFL action, starting with the shocking upset of the Philadelphia Eagles by the Washington Commanders. The loss, coupled with the continued success of the Detroit Lions and Minnesota Vikings, has put Philly in a tough spot, and the pressure is mounting on Jalen Hurts and company, while Jayden Daniels showed why he is the consensus Rookie of the Year. The conversation then shifts to the Minnesota Vikings' win over the Seattle Seahawks. The Seahawks’ inability to find consistent quarterback play leaves them stuck in the middle of the NFC West, and Fitz is skeptical about Seattle’s chances of making a deep playoff run. Fitz and Frank also dissect the Pittsburgh Steelers' loss to the Baltimore Ravens, where the Ravens made a major statement and showed what they can be at their best, and Frank notes that Pittsburgh’s lack of playmakers outside of Pickens has been a major weakness.Later, the dynamic duo cover the rest of Saturday and Sunday's games, including the Houston Texans' mounting injuries, the Las Vegas Raiders' victory, Michael Penix Jr's first start and much more. The show concludes with a preview of the Monday Night Football matchup between the Green Bay Packers and the New Orleans Saints, where both hosts are in agreement that the Packers are poised for a dominant performance.(1:30) - Philadelphia Eagles at Washington Commanders(9:00) - Minnesota Vikings at Seattle Seahawks(21:25) - Pittsburgh Steelers at Baltimore Ravens(28:00) - Houston Texans at Kansas City Chiefs(31:10) - New York Giants at Atlanta Falcons(34:30) - Detroit Lions at Chicago Bears(39:15) - Cleveland Browns at Cincinnati Bengals(41:25) - Tennessee Titans at Indianapolis Colts(43:45) - Los Angeles Rams at New York Jets(46:05) - Arizona Cardinals at Carolina Panthers(49:20) - New England Patriots at Buffalo Bills(51:05) - Jacksonville Jaguars at Las Vegas Raiders(58:45) - San Francisco 49ers at Miami Dolphins(1:00:00) - Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Dallas Cowboys(1:04:00) - MNF previewSubscribe to Inside Coverage on your favorite podcast app: 🎧 Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/3AbfhJc🎧 Spotify: https://spoti.fi/3ymFp3f 📢Yahoo Sports podcast network: https://apple.co/3zEuT ❤️ Inside Coverage would be nothing without the impact of our beloved Terez Paylor, who was a pillar of Yahoo Sports' NFL editorial and podcast coverage.

Thursday Night Football showcased two head coaches who are making a major impact on their teams with playoff berths very likely in grasp. With Jim Harbaugh in his first year back in the league at the helm of the Los Angeles Chargers and Sean Payton in his second year leading the Denver Broncos, both are proving to be difference-makers this season for their teams.Jason Fitz and Frank Schwab talk about why both are proving that the head coaching position in football is so critical to a team’s success, the reason so many teams seem to get that hire wrong and the smart thinking from Jim Harbaugh to finally get a chance to run one of his favorite plays he’s never gotten a chance to attempt in the NFL in a Thursday night win over Denver.Also on this episode of Inside Coverage, the guys discuss the report about New York Jets owner Woody Johnson nixing a trade involving Jerry Jeudy due to the player’s rating in the Madden football video game and why fans have a reason to be frustrated with owners who repeatedly make bad decisions. They then discuss where Kirk Cousins might play in 2025 and if Sam Darnold is a serious option for the San Francisco 49ers next season. (0:54) - Christmas video game memories(7:04) - LAC defeats DEN on TNF(12:21) - Complications in getting the head coach hire right(25:28) - Jets nix Jeudy trade over Madden rating(44:43) - Where will Kirk Cousins play in 2025?(54:42) - Sam Darnold will get paid next year Subscribe to Inside Coverage on your favorite podcast app:🎧 Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/3AbfhJc🎧 Spotify: https://spoti.fi/3ymFp3f📢Yahoo Sports podcast network: https://apple.co/3zEuT❤️ Inside Coverage would be nothing without the impact of our beloved Terez Paylor, who was a pillar of Yahoo Sports' NFL editorial and podcast coverage.

In this week’s episode of Inside Coverage, Frank Schwab and Jori Epstein deep dive into the Atlanta Falcons' decision to bench veteran quarterback Kirk Cousins in favor of rookie Michael Penix Jr. Jori, though not shocked by Penix's start, is taken aback by the team's decision to market it as a permanent change. The duo discusses what we can expect from Penix in his first NFL action and debates whether Cousins, struggling after his Achilles injury, will find a starting role next season (plus some potential landing spots that make sense). In other news, Jori heads to Philly this week to examine the Philadelphia Eagles’ impressive defense, highlighted by the rise of linebacker Zach Baun, who’s making a name for himself after an offseason transformation.Later in the episode, the conversation shifts to a common theme in the NFL: process vs. results. Frank and Jori analyze some key quarterback decisions by process alone: Deshaun Watson’s rumored return next year and Anthony Richardson’s stagnant development in Indianapolis. Jori and Frank analyze the Indianapolis Colts' decision-making process in drafting Richardson and whether it was a case of bad process or just bad luck. They also discuss the potential of Deshaun Watson bouncing back in Cleveland, reflecting on the Browns' investment and whether his struggles were a product of poor decision-making or something more complex. Frank and Jori also break down the Dallas Cowboys' hot streak and whether head coach Mike McCarthy’s job is safe after recent wins.The episode closes with a discussion on Frank's NFL power rankings, with Frank placing the Eagles at the top and Jori arguing for the Buffalo Bills at number one, and the hosts' picks for Thursday Night Football as the Denver Broncos head to Southern California to take on the Los Angeles Chargers.(2:45) - Kirk Cousins benched in Atlanta(21:20) - Rise of Zach Baun in Philly(31:35) - Process vs. results: Anthony Richardson(38:00) - Process vs. results: Deshaun Watson(46:10) - Process vs. results: Mike McCarthy(55:00) - Frank's power rankings corner(1:01:55) - TNF picksSubscribe to Inside Coverage on your favorite podcast app: 🎧 Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/3AbfhJc🎧 Spotify: https://spoti.fi/3ymFp3f 📢Yahoo Sports podcast network: https://apple.co/3zEuT ❤️ Inside Coverage would be nothing without the impact of our beloved Terez Paylor, who was a pillar of Yahoo Sports' NFL editorial and podcast coverage.

In this week's episode of Inside Coverage, Jason Fitz and Frank Schwab give their instant reactions and takeaways from Week 15 of NFL action. The guys kick things off discussing the polarization in the league this year, with a massive gap between the top-tier teams and those struggling at the bottom. The conversation shifts to what turned out to be the game of the week: Buffalo Bills vs. Detroit Lions. Fitz and Frank are in awe of Josh Allen’s incredible rise to MVP-caliber play. Frank lists the few quarterbacks in NFL history who have played at Allen’s current level, comparing him to the likes of Tom Brady and Aaron Rodgers. But as impressive as the Bills are, the Lions defense is starting to show cracks. Can Dan Campbell’s squad continue to ride high with a shaky defense, or will this expose them in the postseason? Fitz is convinced that the Bills are now the team to beat in the AFC, even if that means taking down the mighty Kansas City Chiefs.Fitz & Frank also highlight the Pittsburgh Steelers’ offensive struggles against the dominant Philadelphia Eagles and the Green Bay Packers rolling on primetime against the Seattle Seahawks.Later, the duo cover every other matchup from Sunday's slate of games. Fitz is particularly concerned with Tua Tagovailoa’s erratic play, while Frank gives props to Aaron Rodgers and Davante Adams showing their connection is still very much alive. Meanwhile, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers stun the Los Angeles Chargers, with Baker Mayfield leading the charge, and Mike McCarthy is quietly earning his job back in Dallas. The duo wrap up with predictions for the Monday Night Football double header.(00:50) - NFL is extremely polarized this year(5:00) - Buffalo Bills @ Detroit Lions(20:45) - Pittsburgh Steelers @ Philadelphia Eagles(26:55) - Green Bay Packers @ Seattle Seahawks(33:00) - Dallas Cowboys @ Carolina Panthers(36:40) - Kansas City Chiefs @ Cleveland Browns(40:15) - Miami Dolphins @ Houston Texans(45:20) - New York Jets @ Jacksonville Jaguars(47:10) - Washington Commanders @ New Orleans Saints(50:35) - Baltimore Ravens @ New York Giants(52:40) - Cincinnati Bengals @ Tennessee Titans(54:20) - New England Patriots @ Arizona Cardinals(55:40) - Indianapolis Colts @ Denver Broncos(59:10) - Tampa Bay Buccaneers @ Los Angeles Chargers(1:01:40) - MNF picksSubscribe to Inside Coverage on your favorite podcast app: 🎧 Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/3AbfhJc🎧 Spotify: https://spoti.fi/3ymFp3f 📢Yahoo Sports podcast network: https://apple.co/3zEuT ❤️ Inside Coverage would be nothing without the impact of our beloved Terez Paylor, who was a pillar of Yahoo Sports' NFL editorial and podcast coverage.

The San Francisco 49ers have more questions than answers after a low-scoring loss to the Los Angeles Rams that effectively cost them their playoff chances. With the season all but over, should the 49ers go through with signing Brock Purdy to a $60 million deal or would trying their luck in the NFL Draft prove more successful? Plus, will De’Vondre Campbell ever return to the field after he left the 49ers in the third quarter of their Thursday night game? Jason Fitz, Jori Epstein & Frank Schwab break it all down on this episode of Inside Coverage.After spending time in Dallas for the Winter NFL Owners’ Meeting, Jori shares her top stories from the event. Bill Belichick’s move to college football was top of mind for many owners and Jori explains why Belichick might make the move now even though several NFL head coaching jobs are still open. Jori also gives updates on the possible expansion of replay assist and the impact of teams selling stakes to private equity firms. (0:36) Rams @ 49ers recap(3:34) What do we make of Brock Purdy now?(16:53) De'Vondre Campbell leaves 49ers mid-game(23:37) Why would Belichick move to CFB with NFL jobs still open?(38:45) Takeaways from Winter NFL Owners' Meeting(40:45) Possible expansion of replay assist(52:34) Teams selling stakes to private equity firms(55:54) Goodell addresses Jay-Z allegations Subscribe to Inside Coverage on your favorite podcast app:🎧 Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/3AbfhJc🎧 Spotify: https://spoti.fi/3ymFp3f📢Yahoo Sports podcast network: https://apple.co/3zEuT❤️ Inside Coverage would be nothing without the impact of our beloved Terez Paylor, who was a pillar of Yahoo Sports' NFL editorial and podcast coverage.

In today’s Inside Coverage, Jason Fitz, Charles Robinson, and Frank Schwab dive into a wild NFL week filled with coaching rumors, locker room tension and playoff implications. They kick things off with a trending former head coach, Bill Belichick, and whether he’s on the verge of a surprising jump to college football with the University of North Carolina. Is Belichick ready to trade in the NFL grind for a new challenge, and what does the rumored succession plan involving son Steve Belichick really mean for his future?The discussion heats up as Charles and Frank debate the potential of Mike Vrabel as the next head coach for the Chicago Bears. Charles offers insight into how the Bears might be targeting a strong leader to pair with an upstart offensive mind, but Frank raises concerns about the impact on quarterback Caleb Williams. Meanwhile, the trio tackles the growing tension in the Philadelphia Eagles’ locker room, sparked by AJ Brown’s comments about the offense. Despite the team’s impressive 11-2 record, there’s talk of internal unrest, with some questioning quarterback Jalen Hurts. The crew breaks down how and why Hurts’ leadership continues to be scrutinized.Finally, the guys wrap up with a look at the Kansas City Chiefs, who are somehow managing to be the worst 12-1 team in NFL history due to a number of lucky breaks. Can Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid keep their Super Bowl hopes alive with such a precarious record? Plus, the trio previews Thursday Night Football, where Frank and Charles favor the San Francisco 49ers to defeat the Los Angeles Rams, but Fitz throws in a bold pick for the Rams.(4:10) - Is Bill Belichick to UNC real?(22:50) - Could Bears pursue Mike Vrabel as their next HC?(35:15) - Eagles locker room problems & Jalen Hurts(48:10) - Frank's power rankings corner(56:15) - Rams @ 49ers picksSubscribe to Inside Coverage on your favorite podcast app: 🎧 Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/3AbfhJc🎧 Spotify: https://spoti.fi/3ymFp3f 📢Yahoo Sports podcast network: https://apple.co/3zEuT ❤️ Inside Coverage would be nothing without the impact of our beloved Terez Paylor, who was a pillar of Yahoo Sports' NFL editorial and podcast coverage.

In this week's Inside Coverage, Jason Fitz and Frank Schwab react to every game from the Week 14 NFL Sunday slate. Fitz and Frank start with some of the more interesting outcomes, including the Kansas City Chiefs escaping with a close win on Sunday night and the Buffalo Bills' stunning loss to the Los Angeles Rams, as Josh Allen’s historic fantasy performance wasn’t enough to save them. The Minnesota Vikings beat the Atlanta Falcons, as Sam Darnold continues to shine while Kirk Cousins struggles, leading Frank to wonder about Minnesota’s offseason plans. Over in the NFC, the Seattle Seahawks asserted themselves as the best team in the NFC West, dominating the Arizona Cardinals, with Frank predicting they’ll win the division.Later, Fitz & Frank dive into the rest of the Sunday slate. In Tennessee, the Jaguars handed the Titans another blowout loss, leaving Frank wondering if it’s time for a major rebuild. The Las Vegas Raiders’ nightmare season continued with a cheap shot injury to Aidan O’Connell, while the Tampa Bay Buccaneers seized control of the NFC South. Are the San Francisco 49ers still alive in the NFC playoff race? Fitz and Frank break down all the key takeaways, with a special focus on how the Bills, Vikings, and Seahawks stack up for the playoff push.(1:45) - Los Angeles Chargers @ Kansas City Chiefs(7:30) - Buffalo Bills @ Los Angeles Rams(13:30) - Atlanta Falcons @ Minnesota Vikings(24:15) - Seattle Seahawks @ Arizona Cardinals(29:00) - Jacksonville Jaguars @ Tennessee Titans(33:00) - New York Jets @ Miami Dolphins(36:00) - New Orleans Saints @ New York Giants(38:50) - Carolina Panthers @ Philadelphia Eagles(46:25) - Las Vegas Raiders @ Tampa Bay Buccaneers(54:10) - Cleveland Browns @ Pittsburgh Steelers(56:50) - Chicago Bears @ San Francisco 49ers(1:00:15) - Cincinnati Bengals @ Dallas Cowboys previewSubscribe to Inside Coverage on your favorite podcast app: 🎧 Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/3AbfhJc🎧 Spotify: https://spoti.fi/3ymFp3f 📢Yahoo Sports podcast network: https://apple.co/3zEuT ❤️ Inside Coverage would be nothing without the impact of our beloved Terez Paylor, who was a pillar of Yahoo Sports' NFL editorial and podcast coverage.

Dan Campbell’s bold play calling earns the Detroit Lions a win against the Green Bay Packers in a Thursday Night Football thriller. Jason Fitz & Charles Robinson break down the game and explain just how demoralizing it is for opposing defenses when teams like the Lions continuously go for it on 4th down.C Rob ranks both the current and likely head coach openings in the NFL based solely on the team’s QB situation. While it’s not surprising that a team like the New York Jets with an aging Aaron Rodgers is ranked worst, C Rob’s evaluation of the Dallas Cowboys with Dak Prescott might surprise you. Plus, are the Las Vegas Raiders actually a decent landing spot for a new head coach despite Gardner Minshew’s poor play? (0:35) Packers @ Lions recap(12:38) Lions or Eagles to Super Bowl?(23:58) Ranking HC openings by QB situation(24:43) New York Jets & Rodgers(27:56) New Orleans Saints & Carr(30:30) New York Giants & Jones dead cap(37:42) Dallas Cowboys & Prescott(48:21) Jacksonville Jaguars & Lawrence(52:02) Las Vegas Raiders & Minshew(58:50) Chicago Bears & Williams Subscribe to Inside Coverage on your favorite podcast app:🎧 Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/3AbfhJc🎧 Spotify: https://spoti.fi/3ymFp3f📢Yahoo Sports podcast network: https://apple.co/3zEuT❤️ Inside Coverage would be nothing without the impact of our beloved Terez Paylor, who was a pillar of Yahoo Sports' NFL editorial and podcast coverage.
