0:00:07 > 0:00:10And it will be time for these two teams to settle it
0:00:10 > 0:00:11between the white lines.
0:00:11 > 0:00:13Elway is going to fire towards the end zone.
0:00:13 > 0:00:14It's up the near side.
0:00:14 > 0:00:15And he throws.
0:00:15 > 0:00:16Into the end zone.
0:00:16 > 0:00:17Touchdown!
0:00:17 > 0:00:20Rodgers looking downfield, going deep.
0:00:20 > 0:00:21A one-man wrecking crew!
0:00:21 > 0:00:22Unbelievable.
0:00:22 > 0:00:23Let's go!
0:00:23 > 0:00:25How did he do that?
0:00:25 > 0:00:30For the win!
0:00:30 > 0:00:32Unstoppable.
0:00:33 > 0:00:35Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the NFL Show.
0:00:35 > 0:00:38Today we have a special treat for you.
0:00:38 > 0:00:41No, your eyes aren't deceiving you.
0:00:41 > 0:00:43We have the one, the only Sam Quek, ma'am.
0:00:43 > 0:00:45How are you today?
0:00:45 > 0:00:46Hey.
0:00:46 > 0:00:47See that?
0:00:47 > 0:00:49Part of the gang now, officially.
0:00:49 > 0:00:50Thanks, Osi.
0:00:50 > 0:00:53Well, over the next 30 minutes, we will look ahead to the crucial
0:00:53 > 0:00:56week 17 with a definitive guide as to who will make the play-offs.
0:00:56 > 0:01:02And as ever, we've also been joined by the fully charged Jason Bell.
0:01:02 > 0:01:03You all right, J-Bell?
0:01:03 > 0:01:04It feels good back here.
0:01:04 > 0:01:05Big couch.
0:01:05 > 0:01:06It's comfortable.
0:01:06 > 0:01:07Comfortable.
0:01:07 > 0:01:08I like it.
0:01:08 > 0:01:12We'll start with a look back at week 16, and last Saturday, our two wise
0:01:12 > 0:01:14men cast their analytical eyes over three standout games, all
0:01:14 > 0:01:17of which had potential indications for the play-off picture.
0:01:17 > 0:01:26Here's how it panned out.
0:01:26 > 0:01:27I'm going with Dallas.
0:01:27 > 0:01:30Just the Seahawks are a shell of themselves right now.
0:01:30 > 0:01:32Too many injuries on defense.
0:01:32 > 0:01:33Definitely going for the Seattle Seahawks.
0:01:33 > 0:01:35Now, the Dallas Cowboys have been playing well.
0:01:35 > 0:01:37Everything...
0:01:37 > 0:01:38You think they can stop the run?
0:01:38 > 0:01:40I think they're going to win this game.
0:01:40 > 0:01:41Do you want another 25?
0:01:41 > 0:01:43My chest is sore.
0:01:43 > 0:01:44I'm chilling on that one.
0:01:44 > 0:01:47That's what I thought.
0:01:47 > 0:01:51COMMENTATOR: Prescott Cowboys comes and throws high.
0:01:51 > 0:01:54Picked!
0:01:54 > 0:01:59And walking to the end zone is Coleman, Seattle on top.
0:01:59 > 0:02:08Wilson, endzone, pass is caught by Baldwin for the touchdown.
0:02:08 > 0:02:11Coming back after last week, and not liking what happened.
0:02:11 > 0:02:13There wasn't very many people that thought we had
0:02:13 > 0:02:14a chance to play like that.
0:02:14 > 0:02:16So a really good football game.
0:02:16 > 0:02:25Christmas week, a nice present for everybody at home.
0:02:25 > 0:02:28The Jacksonville Jaguars are just too tough on defense,
0:02:28 > 0:02:31defensive line, secondary, linebackers and Blake
0:02:31 > 0:02:34Bortles, ballin'.
0:02:34 > 0:02:37I mean, I just don't see a way in which the San Francisco 49ers
0:02:37 > 0:02:39are going to be able to overcome that.
0:02:39 > 0:02:43I agree, but we're going to get a chance to see Jimmy G
0:02:43 > 0:02:44and what he really can do.
0:02:44 > 0:02:45COMMENTATOR: Next to Garoppolo.
0:02:45 > 0:02:48Garoppolo on the move, throws, and it is caught, touchdown!
0:02:48 > 0:02:51Trent Taylor, his first touchdown since week three against the Rams.
0:02:51 > 0:02:53Save to say that Christmas arrived on Halloween
0:02:53 > 0:03:03this year for the 49ers.
0:03:03 > 0:03:05We didn't do enough, and like I told the players,
0:03:05 > 0:03:08you know, we've got to give credit to San Francisco, you
0:03:08 > 0:03:10know, they make plays.
0:03:10 > 0:03:13COMMENTATOR: They've got to get to the 22 and pick up the first.
0:03:13 > 0:03:15They flip it to Breida.
0:03:15 > 0:03:16Got some room on the left side.
0:03:16 > 0:03:17Touchdown!
0:03:17 > 0:03:20And he's gone, full game!
0:03:20 > 0:03:22The icing on the cake for San Francisco on Christmas Eve.
0:03:22 > 0:03:23I don't know.
0:03:23 > 0:03:26It was a heck of a game.
0:03:26 > 0:03:30A lot of emotions on the sideline, ups and downs, but just proud
0:03:30 > 0:03:32of the way that we kept fighting as a team.
0:03:32 > 0:03:35We knew it was going to be a dogfight, that was a good team.
0:03:35 > 0:03:45So I was proud how we came out of it.
0:03:47 > 0:03:49How do you see that one going?
0:03:49 > 0:03:51The Atlanta Falcons just defeated New Orleans Saints.
0:03:51 > 0:03:53I don't think their linebackers are going to be able
0:03:53 > 0:03:56to go into New Orleans, which we like to call
0:03:56 > 0:03:58the Bermuda Triangle, and win a game in New Orleans,
0:03:58 > 0:04:00I just don't see a way.
0:04:00 > 0:04:04I want them to win, but I don't think that's good to happen.
0:04:04 > 0:04:07I wanted a chance to beat him in a bet, but I agree with him.
0:04:07 > 0:04:09COMMENTATOR: Brees going forward, he's got it!
0:04:09 > 0:04:10Touchdown.
0:04:10 > 0:04:19Wow.
0:04:19 > 0:04:20It was a good win.
0:04:20 > 0:04:22Obviously we think Atlanta's a really good football team,
0:04:22 > 0:04:32and we knew going in it would be a battle.
0:04:35 > 0:04:37COMMENTATOR: But they'll run it.
0:04:37 > 0:04:38Fumbled it!
0:04:38 > 0:04:39It's loose!
0:04:39 > 0:04:40New Orleans!
0:04:40 > 0:04:41How about this defense?
0:04:41 > 0:04:42Not this time, my friends.
0:04:42 > 0:04:43We didn't play well enough.
0:04:43 > 0:04:46We got some opportunities on the offensive side of the ball,
0:04:46 > 0:04:48put ourselves behind the chains with too many penalties,
0:04:48 > 0:04:50turnovers and missed opportunities, so we are disappointed with that.
0:04:50 > 0:04:53You know, we are going to have to put it behind us.
0:04:53 > 0:04:56If you've been watching the NFL Show, as you should,
0:04:56 > 0:04:58you'll remember that I said playing against the New Orleans Saints
0:04:58 > 0:05:00is similar to flying over the Bermuda Triangle.
0:05:00 > 0:05:10Because teams go down there and disappear.
0:05:18 > 0:05:21But it's not all magic tricks for the New Orleans Saints.
0:05:21 > 0:05:23As these guys on defense had an outstanding football game,
0:05:23 > 0:05:26and I want to show you some of the incredible things these young
0:05:26 > 0:05:28men were able to get done.
0:05:28 > 0:05:29Check this out.
0:05:29 > 0:05:30This is incredible.
0:05:30 > 0:05:33The first thing I want to show you is goal-line defense.
0:05:33 > 0:05:35Now, the Atlanta Falcons are on the 1-yard line.
0:05:35 > 0:05:37Now, if you're on the 1-yard line, it is absolutely demoralising.
0:05:37 > 0:05:40It is absolutely the worst thing that can happen to you,
0:05:40 > 0:05:42for you not to be able to punch it in.
0:05:42 > 0:05:45But I want you to take a look at what happens here.
0:05:45 > 0:05:47Defensively, the defensive line has to stay low.
0:05:47 > 0:05:49They have to get up underneath the paths
0:05:49 > 0:05:51of the offensive linemen and push them back.
0:05:51 > 0:05:54Watch what happens to the Pro Bowl center here for the Atlanta Falcons.
0:05:54 > 0:05:55This is incredible.
0:05:55 > 0:05:58Now, you're going to see number 96 here get low,
0:05:58 > 0:06:00push it, and number 51, Manti Te'o is going to hit
0:06:00 > 0:06:02the center right in his mouth, forcing a fumble.
0:06:02 > 0:06:05No, not only do the Atlanta Falcons not get in, they also
0:06:05 > 0:06:07fumble the football, turning it over for
0:06:07 > 0:06:09the New Orleans Saints, an outstanding football play
0:06:09 > 0:06:10for that team.
0:06:10 > 0:06:11Guess what?
0:06:11 > 0:06:13The New Orleans Saints didn't just do this once.
0:06:13 > 0:06:15They were able to do this twice.
0:06:15 > 0:06:19Now, I don't know what this says about you as an offense if you get
0:06:19 > 0:06:22all the way to the 1-yard line and you're not able to punch it in,
0:06:22 > 0:06:25but now the New Orleans Saints are going to do something
0:06:25 > 0:06:26completely different here.
0:06:26 > 0:06:28Now, if you're not able to get up under the paths
0:06:28 > 0:06:31of the offensive line, you also want to be able
0:06:31 > 0:06:32to get great penetration.
0:06:32 > 0:06:35And I want you to watch Kikaha for the New Orleans Saints dive
0:06:35 > 0:06:37across here and wrap Devonta Freeman, making
0:06:37 > 0:06:39another outstanding play for the New Orleans Saints.
0:06:39 > 0:06:40These guys were born, look at this.
0:06:40 > 0:06:42Watch him just knife right through, wrap up Freeman
0:06:42 > 0:06:44and bring him to the ground.
0:06:44 > 0:06:46Now, New Orleans Saints not known for being an outstanding defensive
0:06:46 > 0:06:49football team up until this year, but these guys are flat out
0:06:49 > 0:06:50getting the job done.
0:06:50 > 0:06:53And last but not least, something else caught my eye that
0:06:53 > 0:06:54I want to show you guys.
0:06:54 > 0:06:57This was one of the best things I've seen in the entire year.
0:06:57 > 0:07:00Now, check out Cam Jordan.
0:07:00 > 0:07:02Cam Jordan is lined up right here.
0:07:02 > 0:07:04Now, Cam Jordan is a Pro Bowl football player.
0:07:04 > 0:07:06The New Orleans Saints know this.
0:07:06 > 0:07:08The Atlanta Falcons know this.
0:07:08 > 0:07:11So what they're going to do is they're going to bring Freeman
0:07:11 > 0:07:12over here to help him.
0:07:12 > 0:07:13They're going to try and chip him.
0:07:13 > 0:07:16Now, I want you to see that from this angle,
0:07:16 > 0:07:19and then I'm going to show you a different angle and show
0:07:19 > 0:07:20you exactly what happened here.
0:07:20 > 0:07:22You're going to see him get the sack.
0:07:22 > 0:07:24But that's not the best part about this.
0:07:24 > 0:07:25Watch this right here.
0:07:25 > 0:07:26Cam Jordan lined up right here.
0:07:26 > 0:07:28He's going to have his friend line up right here.
0:07:28 > 0:07:32Now, what he's going to do is he's going to go up here,
0:07:32 > 0:07:34and Cam Jordan is going to come around right here, essentially
0:07:34 > 0:07:36creating a two-on-one under guard.
0:07:36 > 0:07:39Now, I want you to pay close attention to this guard right here.
0:07:39 > 0:07:40Watch how confused he is.
0:07:40 > 0:07:41This is incredible.
0:07:41 > 0:07:43You're going to see him go up the field.
0:07:43 > 0:07:45Cam Jordan is going to come around.
0:07:45 > 0:07:46Look at the guard.
0:07:46 > 0:07:47He has no clue what's going on.
0:07:47 > 0:07:50He's looking, what happened, which we did he go?
0:07:50 > 0:07:53Kind of reminds me of the day I got a rather strange phone call
0:07:53 > 0:07:57from a man who was 100% certain he was my wife's husband.
0:07:57 > 0:08:07You can't be her husband if I'm her husband.
0:08:10 > 0:08:11I don't...
0:08:11 > 0:08:12What do you...?
0:08:12 > 0:08:13Incredible, man!
0:08:13 > 0:08:15The New Orleans Saints getting the job done.
0:08:15 > 0:08:16Enjoyed that, Jason, didn't you?
0:08:16 > 0:08:18I tell you what, he just keeps coming
0:08:18 > 0:08:19up with stuff!
0:08:19 > 0:08:21I love sitting here, it's so enjoyable.
0:08:21 > 0:08:22I mean, the man's got talent.
0:08:22 > 0:08:25Right, it's not going to be fun now because this next game,
0:08:25 > 0:08:27the Seattle Seahawks against the Cowboys,
0:08:27 > 0:08:28this prediction you got wrong again!
0:08:28 > 0:08:31What went wrong?
0:08:31 > 0:08:33I need to stop going against Osi, that's
0:08:33 > 0:08:34the first thing!
0:08:34 > 0:08:35But ultimately, three turnovers.
0:08:35 > 0:08:37I mean you cannot turn the ball over three times and
0:08:37 > 0:08:39expect to win.
0:08:39 > 0:08:41Statistically, Dallas was playing the better game but
0:08:41 > 0:08:42ultimately it's all about possession.
0:08:42 > 0:08:45They gave the ball away and Dak Prescott needs a number one
0:08:45 > 0:08:47receiver.
0:08:47 > 0:08:49Dez Bryant is not that guy right now.
0:08:49 > 0:08:52They need to address that in the offseason.
0:08:52 > 0:08:54Do you think there was too much pressure put on Ezekiel
0:08:54 > 0:08:55Elliott coming back?
0:08:55 > 0:08:58Yes, because the team obviously needed him, but I
0:08:58 > 0:08:59feel like he had a good game.
0:08:59 > 0:09:01They played well with Ezekiel Elliott,
0:09:01 > 0:09:03you cannot turn the ball over.
0:09:03 > 0:09:04Possession is so important in football.
0:09:04 > 0:09:09Three turnovers, you won't win games.
0:09:09 > 0:09:09Well I think if you keep on getting your predictions wrong,
0:09:09 > 0:09:13maybe do sit-ups, push-ups, jumping jacks, you will be in the best shape
0:09:13 > 0:09:18of your life?
0:09:18 > 0:09:19I think you're onto something!
0:09:19 > 0:09:21I've got to figure this out.
0:09:21 > 0:09:23I've got to figure this out, give me some time!
0:09:23 > 0:09:25Give me some time, I'm going to get better.
0:09:25 > 0:09:27There we go, we heard that from you first!
0:09:27 > 0:09:29Well, what have these results done to the overall
0:09:29 > 0:09:31playoff picture, as
0:09:31 > 0:09:32we head into tomorrow's final round of games?
0:09:32 > 0:09:35Eddie Butler has been looking at the permutations starting
0:09:35 > 0:09:36with the NFC...
0:09:36 > 0:09:38Three of the four NFC divisional winners are known.
0:09:38 > 0:09:41The Philadelphia Eagles in the East...
0:09:41 > 0:09:42Ajayi!
0:09:42 > 0:09:43At the 30, the 20...
0:09:43 > 0:09:46That goes for 71 yards!
0:09:46 > 0:09:47Down to the two...
0:09:47 > 0:09:48Is he in?
0:09:48 > 0:09:54Touchdown!
0:09:54 > 0:09:56From now, my nickname's Sweet Pea!
0:09:56 > 0:09:57The Minnesota Vikings in the North...
0:09:57 > 0:10:00CHEERING in the North...
0:10:00 > 0:10:01We just started, you want another
0:10:01 > 0:10:02one?
0:10:02 > 0:10:06Hits on five and into the end zone.
0:10:06 > 0:10:07Touchdown!
0:10:07 > 0:10:08The Los Angeles Rams, the West.
0:10:08 > 0:10:10He flings one back into the end zone.
0:10:10 > 0:10:11It is caught!
0:10:11 > 0:10:12Touchdown Josh Reynolds!
0:10:12 > 0:10:14Right side throw!
0:10:14 > 0:10:15Todd Gurley at the goal-line.
0:10:15 > 0:10:16Touchdown LA!
0:10:16 > 0:10:23The Rams put together a winning season.
0:10:23 > 0:10:26Either the New Orleans Saints or the Carolina
0:10:26 > 0:10:28Panthers will win the hotly contested South.
0:10:28 > 0:10:30Both are through to the playoffs, and the third team
0:10:30 > 0:10:40from the South may take the last wild card spot.
0:10:43 > 0:10:45Last year's Super Bowl runners-up the Atlanta
0:10:45 > 0:10:45Falcons...
0:10:45 > 0:10:47Julio...
0:10:47 > 0:10:48There it is!
0:10:48 > 0:10:54Touchdown Atlanta.
0:10:54 > 0:10:56It is never easy playing the Atlanta Falcons.
0:10:56 > 0:10:57Way to go!
0:10:57 > 0:11:00Also in contention for the sixth qualifying place, but not at all
0:11:00 > 0:11:01Southern, the Seattle Seahawks.
0:11:01 > 0:11:04Now he's going to throw deep...
0:11:04 > 0:11:05Richardson!
0:11:05 > 0:11:09He makes the catch.
0:11:09 > 0:11:10Russell throws it...
0:11:10 > 0:11:11Into the end zone.
0:11:11 > 0:11:21Touchdown, Seahawks!
0:11:21 > 0:11:22Believe on three.
0:11:22 > 0:11:23One, two, three...
0:11:23 > 0:11:24Believe!
0:11:24 > 0:11:27On wild card weekend, the first round of the postseason, the
0:11:27 > 0:11:30Eagles will have a bye, well earned rest, or another day of training.
0:11:30 > 0:11:33To get Nick Foles up to the speed of the
0:11:33 > 0:11:34injured Carson Wentz.
0:11:34 > 0:11:37I mean, we are 13 and two, and we still have a lot
0:11:37 > 0:11:38of room to improve.
0:11:38 > 0:11:40The Vikings should also earn themselves a bye,
0:11:40 > 0:11:43but the Saints, the Panthers and the Rams can all still become that
0:11:43 > 0:11:44other top seed.
0:11:44 > 0:11:48Sammy Watkins, touchdown LA!
0:11:48 > 0:11:50But this game may have a bearing on the permutations.
0:11:50 > 0:11:52The Falcons against the Panthers in the
0:11:52 > 0:11:58last week of the regular season.
0:11:58 > 0:12:01We know what is there, and that is what
0:12:01 > 0:12:02is so exciting.
0:12:02 > 0:12:05Can we play our very best this week to go where we want
0:12:05 > 0:12:06to go?
0:12:06 > 0:12:07It carries jeopardy...
0:12:07 > 0:12:08Cam Newton...
0:12:08 > 0:12:09Touchdown for Newton!
0:12:09 > 0:12:10Cam...
0:12:10 > 0:12:11I...
0:12:11 > 0:12:12I...
0:12:12 > 0:12:13I kind of...
0:12:13 > 0:12:14TODDLER GIGGLES.
0:12:14 > 0:12:15That's not funny...
0:12:15 > 0:12:16In Atlanta.
0:12:16 > 0:12:19OSI: So confirmation of how things stand in the NFC right now,
0:12:19 > 0:12:21the division leaders - the Philadelphia Eagles, the Minnesota
0:12:21 > 0:12:23Vikings, the Los Angeles Rams, the New Orleans Saints...
0:12:23 > 0:12:25Wow, these guys have had an outstanding season,
0:12:25 > 0:12:26all four of them.
0:12:26 > 0:12:29The wild cards, you've got the Carolina Panthers and
0:12:29 > 0:12:31the Atlanta Falcons still there, fighting, struggling, to see what is
0:12:31 > 0:12:32going to happen.
0:12:32 > 0:12:34And do not forget, Jason, about your boys, the Seattle
0:12:34 > 0:12:36Seahawks.
0:12:36 > 0:12:39I mean, that NFC South, right?
0:12:39 > 0:12:43We knew it was a tough conference.
0:12:43 > 0:12:45They are all in there for the taking right now.
0:12:45 > 0:12:47I'm a little worried about Philly right
0:12:47 > 0:12:48now.
0:12:48 > 0:12:56I'm not sure about them, man.
0:12:56 > 0:12:57Why are you worried about Philly?
0:12:57 > 0:12:59They are not the same team right now.
0:12:59 > 0:13:00Not the same team without the quarterback.
0:13:00 > 0:13:02I saw that last week.
0:13:02 > 0:13:03Just a little shaky.
0:13:03 > 0:13:05They played really sloppy last week, if you look
0:13:05 > 0:13:06at the way they played.
0:13:06 > 0:13:07The quarterback was very inconsistent.
0:13:07 > 0:13:10Their running game didn't really get on track the way they were supposed
0:13:10 > 0:13:11to.
0:13:11 > 0:13:14Defensively they played well, but overall, this team right here,
0:13:14 > 0:13:16they looked to be there for the taking.
0:13:16 > 0:13:19Well, it's safe to say here that the big game that everyone is
0:13:19 > 0:13:22going to be looking at is the Carolina Panthers against the
0:13:22 > 0:13:23Atlanta Falcons.
0:13:23 > 0:13:25Now, Jason, I'm going to come to you for your
0:13:25 > 0:13:28prediction, because you're probably going to copy Osi because you always
0:13:28 > 0:13:29get it wrong!
0:13:29 > 0:13:30So you go first!
0:13:30 > 0:13:31You gave me a chance...
0:13:31 > 0:13:33I'm going to dig myself another hole.
0:13:33 > 0:13:34You know?
0:13:34 > 0:13:35I'm going with Carolina.
0:13:35 > 0:13:37I'm going with Carolina just because I think
0:13:37 > 0:13:38they're on a roll right now
0:13:38 > 0:13:39and I'm just...
0:13:39 > 0:13:41Everybody's waiting for the Atlanta Falcons to be the
0:13:41 > 0:13:42last year the Atlanta Falcons.
0:13:42 > 0:13:43It's not happening.
0:13:43 > 0:13:45I will say this.
0:13:45 > 0:13:46The Atlanta Falcons, to win this game,
0:13:46 > 0:13:49they are going to have to get Julio Jones matched up against the
0:13:49 > 0:13:52weakness of the Carolina Panthers, which is their secondary,
0:13:52 > 0:13:52particularly their corners.
0:13:52 > 0:13:54That is the matchup that gives them the
0:13:54 > 0:13:57chance to win, as you can see I'm building myself away.
0:13:57 > 0:13:58In case it happens!
0:13:58 > 0:14:00But ultimately I'm going with Carolina.
0:14:00 > 0:14:01And Osi?
0:14:01 > 0:14:03Speaking of the Carolina Panthers, I want to ask
0:14:03 > 0:14:05you this, do you know how to dab, first and foremost?
0:14:05 > 0:14:07Do you know what a dab is?
0:14:07 > 0:14:08Who doesn't know how to dab?
0:14:08 > 0:14:10It might not be a great one?
0:14:10 > 0:14:11Let me see it...
0:14:11 > 0:14:12Hey!
0:14:12 > 0:14:13Hey, hey?
0:14:13 > 0:14:14Is that Cam Newton-esque?
0:14:14 > 0:14:16It isn't, but it's close.
0:14:16 > 0:14:17You did good!
0:14:17 > 0:14:20Speaking of the Carolina Panthers, I think they're going to have a much
0:14:20 > 0:14:22better season than most people give them credit for.
0:14:22 > 0:14:24But the Atlanta Falcons are the desperate football
0:14:24 > 0:14:25team.
0:14:25 > 0:14:27They need to win this game to get into the playoffs.
0:14:27 > 0:14:29The Carolina Panthers are already in the
0:14:29 > 0:14:32playoffs, they don't have quite as much to play for.
0:14:32 > 0:14:33I'm definitely picking the Atlanta Falcons.
0:14:33 > 0:14:35And when you look at the Falcons, it's
0:14:35 > 0:14:37pretty much in their hands really, isn't it?
0:14:37 > 0:14:39That they get to the next part of the playoffs.
0:14:39 > 0:14:42Yeah, I mean, they should be able to win this game
0:14:42 > 0:14:43and get into the playoffs.
0:14:43 > 0:14:46The Seattle Seahawks on the outside, lurking, but I'm picking the Atlanta
0:14:46 > 0:14:48Falcons to at least be able to get in.
0:14:48 > 0:14:50They had a really tough division this season,
0:14:50 > 0:14:52but overall they going to be able to get it.
0:14:52 > 0:14:55OK, fab, let's talk about the Saints at the Bucs.
0:14:55 > 0:14:57It's all about Drew Brees, is it not?
0:14:57 > 0:14:58Man, 70,000 passing yards already.
0:14:58 > 0:15:00The fastest quarterback to ever get there.
0:15:00 > 0:15:01This man is an outstanding quarterback!
0:15:01 > 0:15:02Osi...
0:15:02 > 0:15:04It's the Alvin Kamara show, stop it, man!
0:15:04 > 0:15:06What are you talking about, man?
0:15:06 > 0:15:08It's the Alvin Kamara show over there, in New Orleans.
0:15:08 > 0:15:10Yeah, I mean, Kamara is ballin', man...
0:15:10 > 0:15:22In that offense!
0:15:22 > 0:15:32Those guys are getting it done, man.
0:15:34 > 0:15:36Are they going to be affected by their last two performances,
0:15:36 > 0:15:37do you think, the Seahawks?
0:15:37 > 0:15:40I think you would think that they are able to win the last
0:15:40 > 0:15:43game, even though they didn't play well, they are going up
0:15:43 > 0:15:45against the Arizona Cardinals - a team who, obviously,
0:15:45 > 0:15:47have just lost their head coach, Bruce Arians.
0:15:47 > 0:15:50He's announced that he's not going to be coaching next year.
0:15:50 > 0:15:52They are going to be playing desperate, man.
0:15:52 > 0:16:00They are going to be playing as spoilers.
0:16:00 > 0:16:03They do not want the Seahawks to get into the postseason.
0:16:03 > 0:16:05I'm going to go with the Arizona Cardinals.
0:16:05 > 0:16:06Osi, have you lost your mind?
0:16:06 > 0:16:08They are at Seattle, they are at Seattle!
0:16:08 > 0:16:10Are you going to bet me again?
0:16:10 > 0:16:11I'm going to...
0:16:11 > 0:16:12Bet you again!
0:16:12 > 0:16:13What are we doing?
0:16:13 > 0:16:1420 push-ups?
0:16:14 > 0:16:1520 push-ups.
0:16:15 > 0:16:16All right, I'm down for that.
0:16:16 > 0:16:17I need a win.
0:16:17 > 0:16:18OK...
0:16:18 > 0:16:21So that's how things look in the National Football Conference
0:16:21 > 0:16:23and it's time now to dive into all things AFC...
0:16:23 > 0:16:25Already settled, the AFC divisional titles.
0:16:25 > 0:16:26The New England Patriots in the east...
0:16:26 > 0:16:28COMMENTATOR:Gronkowski makes a twisting one-handed
0:16:28 > 0:16:29catch inside the pylon.
0:16:29 > 0:16:30Touchdown, Patriots!
0:16:30 > 0:16:31Ooh, superhuman!
0:16:31 > 0:16:32The Pittsburgh Steelers in the north...
0:16:32 > 0:16:34In the middle and into the end zone...
0:16:34 > 0:16:36Rodgers for the Pittsburgh Steelers touchdown.
0:16:36 > 0:16:37That was amazing!
0:16:37 > 0:16:39The Patriots and the Steelers, the old aristocrats of the NFL.
0:16:39 > 0:16:47The greatest quarterback of all time...
0:16:47 > 0:16:48Let's go!
0:16:48 > 0:16:49Let's go!
0:16:49 > 0:16:53The two top seeds with a bye on wild card weekend in the playoffs,
0:16:53 > 0:16:55the other two divisional winners, the Jacksonville Jaguars
0:16:55 > 0:16:56in the South...
0:16:56 > 0:16:57Play on, play on!
0:16:57 > 0:16:59And the Kansas City Chiefs in the West...
0:16:59 > 0:17:00He pulls it in, touchdown!
0:17:00 > 0:17:02The Chiefs have won the AFC West.
0:17:02 > 0:17:04Chiefs!
0:17:04 > 0:17:05Yes, yes!
0:17:05 > 0:17:11CLAPPING.
0:17:11 > 0:17:13Still to be settled, the two AFC wild cards.
0:17:13 > 0:17:15With four teams still in the contest, in descending order
0:17:15 > 0:17:23of how good their prospects are - in the hunt, the Baltimore Ravens...
0:17:23 > 0:17:24Yeah!
0:17:24 > 0:17:27Woo!
0:17:27 > 0:17:28Great job, Joe!
0:17:28 > 0:17:29Hell, yes!
0:17:29 > 0:17:31Great job.
0:17:31 > 0:17:32I was nervous on that.
0:17:32 > 0:17:33Are you kidding me?
0:17:33 > 0:17:37The Tennessee Titans...
0:17:37 > 0:17:38Oh, my goodness!
0:17:38 > 0:17:40The loose ball!
0:17:40 > 0:17:44And he has a big six.
0:17:44 > 0:17:45The Los Angeles Chargers...
0:17:45 > 0:17:48He falls but makes the catch.
0:17:48 > 0:17:51And the Buffalo Bills.
0:17:51 > 0:17:54He stands in the pocket, walks with him into the end
0:17:54 > 0:17:55zone, and touchdown!
0:17:55 > 0:17:57Touchdown for Sean McCourt.
0:17:57 > 0:18:00The Bills are on the road in week 17, away at the Miami Dolphins.
0:18:00 > 0:18:06The other three contenders have home field advantage.
0:18:06 > 0:18:07Play your heart out.
0:18:07 > 0:18:09It doesn't matter what the situation, you make the next play.
0:18:09 > 0:18:13You keep going.
0:18:13 > 0:18:15Be the most physical team and the smartest.
0:18:15 > 0:18:16Let's go win this football game.
0:18:16 > 0:18:19If the Ravens, lying in six going into week 17,
0:18:19 > 0:18:21beat the Cincinnati Bengals, they're through.
0:18:21 > 0:18:23The other three share an 8 and 7 record.
0:18:23 > 0:18:31They must win and then start checking scores elsewhere.
0:18:31 > 0:18:32Keep the pressure coming.
0:18:32 > 0:18:34That's the best defense we've got.
0:18:34 > 0:18:39Great job.
0:18:39 > 0:18:42Here is your game and your playoff hopes on the line.
0:18:42 > 0:18:51This is the way you win, at home, in front of your crowd.
0:18:51 > 0:18:56Play the game, and do the math.
0:19:01 > 0:19:02Well, the calculators will definitely be out,
0:19:02 > 0:19:08if you haven't had them out already.
0:19:08 > 0:19:11The Patriots confirmed for a top two spot, and things also were looking
0:19:11 > 0:19:12good for the Steelers.
0:19:12 > 0:19:15The Jags still top the AFC South, despite that defeat to the 49ers.
0:19:15 > 0:19:18And Osi, what a week for us Kansas City Chiefs fans!
0:19:18 > 0:19:22Took that really competitive NFC West division.
0:19:22 > 0:19:23Look how excited you are!
0:19:23 > 0:19:28I am.
0:19:28 > 0:19:30Got a nice little Christmas gift going on by Andy Reid
0:19:30 > 0:19:32playing Santa Claus.
0:19:32 > 0:19:35It was supposed to be a tough division, but the Kansas City Chiefs
0:19:35 > 0:19:36just pulled away at the end.
0:19:36 > 0:19:39The Chargers gave them a little bit of a scare.
0:19:39 > 0:19:41We thought that the Los Angeles Chargers were going to be
0:19:41 > 0:19:42able to do something.
0:19:42 > 0:19:44But Kansas City Chiefs would just the better football team,
0:19:44 > 0:19:46man, much to my chagrin.
0:19:46 > 0:19:49Just were great under pressure, we are such a good team for that.
0:19:49 > 0:19:51As for this week's match-ups, it is a massive game
0:19:51 > 0:19:53between the Jaguars and the Titans.
0:19:53 > 0:19:55How do you think that's going to pan out?
0:19:55 > 0:19:57Well, Jacksonville has to play all their starters.
0:19:57 > 0:20:01I mean, the argument right now is do you sit the guys, have a lock.
0:20:01 > 0:20:03But after that devastating loss, they've got to get that bad
0:20:03 > 0:20:05taste out of their mouth.
0:20:05 > 0:20:08I feel like those guys need to go in, and if they do
0:20:08 > 0:20:10come out of the game, they need to have a healthy lead,
0:20:10 > 0:20:13because they can't go in the playoffs with that losing
0:20:13 > 0:20:14kind of mentality.
0:20:14 > 0:20:16I tell you something, Jason, those guys are going to play
0:20:16 > 0:20:18from start to finish, man.
0:20:18 > 0:20:19Remember who's there.
0:20:19 > 0:20:23Tom Coughlin.
0:20:23 > 0:20:24TC!
0:20:24 > 0:20:26And Tom Coughlin doesn't believe in that pulling the starters
0:20:26 > 0:20:28at any point in time.
0:20:28 > 0:20:30He's going to play then the entire time to keep the continuity
0:20:30 > 0:20:32going through the entire playoffs.
0:20:32 > 0:20:34I think they're going to roll over the Tennessee Titans.
0:20:34 > 0:20:37You think he's going to go over to the head coach's call on that?
0:20:37 > 0:20:38No question about that.
0:20:38 > 0:20:40Doug Marrone is one of his disciples.
0:20:40 > 0:20:43He's going to do exactly what Tom Coughlin tells him to do.
0:20:43 > 0:20:45The Titans still have, you know, a chance to go
0:20:45 > 0:20:46through to the playoffs.
0:20:46 > 0:20:49If they win, or both the Buffalo and the Chargers
0:20:49 > 0:20:50lose, they go through.
0:20:50 > 0:20:52So surely, they're not going to roll over?
0:20:52 > 0:20:54Tennessee, they 100% shouldn't even be in this conversation.
0:20:54 > 0:20:57These guys have had a pretty bad season, and they're beating
0:20:57 > 0:20:59teams who are under 500, getting into the playoffs.
0:20:59 > 0:21:02I don't want to see Tennessee Titans in the playoffs at all, man.
0:21:02 > 0:21:04They do not deserve to be in there.
0:21:04 > 0:21:07Marcus Mariota is such a nice guy that nobody in the media really
0:21:07 > 0:21:08talks about how bad he's playing.
0:21:08 > 0:21:10I mean, he's obviously that nice of a guy,
0:21:10 > 0:21:13because he is not the same guy, unless he's running around
0:21:13 > 0:21:15making plays with his feet like he did in college.
0:21:15 > 0:21:19They're going to have to figure out how to improve his game next year.
0:21:19 > 0:21:22And another team which are involved in that mix are the Ravens.
0:21:22 > 0:21:23Now, they're nigh on through.
0:21:23 > 0:21:24Should they lose...
0:21:24 > 0:21:25What was that?
0:21:25 > 0:21:26Nigh on through?
0:21:26 > 0:21:27What's that?
0:21:27 > 0:21:28It means like almost through.
0:21:28 > 0:21:29I'm getting educated!
0:21:29 > 0:21:30OK.
0:21:30 > 0:21:31It's English slang.
0:21:31 > 0:21:32Better education!
0:21:32 > 0:21:34As long as they don't lose.
0:21:34 > 0:21:35You've got to teach us sometimes!
0:21:35 > 0:21:37So, the Ravens entertain the Bengals.
0:21:37 > 0:21:38How do you see that one going?
0:21:38 > 0:21:40I'm going to the Ravens.
0:21:40 > 0:21:42I mean, ultimately, I believe in great defense,
0:21:42 > 0:21:44and they are playing outstanding defense, and Flacco is back
0:21:44 > 0:21:47to doing Flacco things, which is throwing the ball deep down
0:21:47 > 0:21:48the field, getting big chunk plays.
0:21:48 > 0:21:50That's what they're doing well, and it makes them dangerous.
0:21:50 > 0:21:53Yes, Cincinnati Bengals have a lot to play for, man.
0:21:53 > 0:21:56Their head coach, Marvin Lewis, who has been there for 15 seasons,
0:21:56 > 0:21:57this is his last game there.
0:21:57 > 0:21:59They are going to be playing their hearts out.
0:21:59 > 0:22:02But the Baltimore Ravens are just entirely too tough for them.
0:22:02 > 0:22:03Great defensive team.
0:22:03 > 0:22:06The quarterback, Joe Flacco, has returned to what he was a little
0:22:06 > 0:22:07bit earlier in the season.
0:22:07 > 0:22:09Baltimore should be able to win this.
0:22:09 > 0:22:11He's doing what he did when they were successful
0:22:11 > 0:22:14and they had a Super Bowl run, which is make plays down the field.
0:22:14 > 0:22:17He's a guy who needs to throw the ball vertically,
0:22:17 > 0:22:19and your boy Suggs, man, he's a closer.
0:22:19 > 0:22:21I think he has the most sacks in the fourth quarter
0:22:21 > 0:22:22right now this year.
0:22:22 > 0:22:23I mean, he's a closer.
0:22:23 > 0:22:25They scare me as a team.
0:22:25 > 0:22:28Let's have a look at the Raiders at Chargers.
0:22:28 > 0:22:30Philip Rivers has got a job to do.
0:22:30 > 0:22:31Is he going to deliver?
0:22:31 > 0:22:32Yeah, he's going to deliver.
0:22:32 > 0:22:34The Chargers are clearly the better football team.
0:22:34 > 0:22:37Oakland Raiders have just been decimated by who knows what.
0:22:37 > 0:22:39Those guys haven't showed up this entire season.
0:22:39 > 0:22:41I don't know what's going on with Oakland.
0:22:41 > 0:22:43Too much money in Derek Carr's pocket is what's going
0:22:43 > 0:22:44on in Oakland, man.
0:22:44 > 0:22:46But I definitely think the Los Angeles Chargers
0:22:46 > 0:22:48are going to get the job done.
0:22:48 > 0:22:50I'll go with the Chargers, but you know what?
0:22:50 > 0:22:52There might be an upset here.
0:22:52 > 0:22:53I don't know.
0:22:53 > 0:22:54Oakland Raiders might pull something together.
0:22:54 > 0:22:57I mean, ultimately they haven't been a great team this year,
0:22:57 > 0:22:59but like you said, those divisional games, man.
0:22:59 > 0:23:02They always scare me.
0:23:02 > 0:23:05And we've got the Bills at Dolphins.
0:23:05 > 0:23:07Again, the Bills are still in for a shout here.
0:23:07 > 0:23:11All they have to do is win and hope that the Ravens lose.
0:23:11 > 0:23:11Simple!
0:23:11 > 0:23:14Yeah, it sounds simple, but first of all, who knows who's
0:23:14 > 0:23:16going to show what for the Miami Dolphins.
0:23:16 > 0:23:19Who knows if Jay Cutler is going to show up at the Miami Dolphins.
0:23:19 > 0:23:22One week he is looking like Tom Brady, the next week
0:23:22 > 0:23:24he just looks like just a scrub.
0:23:24 > 0:23:26If he shows up, Miami should pull this game of.
0:23:26 > 0:23:30No, Miami is not going to pull this game off.
0:23:30 > 0:23:32The Bills will win, but, you know, ultimately,
0:23:32 > 0:23:35it's that same way you look at Sean McDermott again and you're
0:23:35 > 0:23:36like, what are you thinking, man?
0:23:36 > 0:23:39Why would you bench Tyrod Taylor when you had a chance to...
0:23:39 > 0:23:41You wouldn't even be in this position.
0:23:41 > 0:23:44So I still, I like to blame it on the coach sometimes,
0:23:44 > 0:23:45and this gives me the opportunity.
0:23:45 > 0:23:46But it's his fault!
0:23:46 > 0:23:48You're in this situation because you set your quarterback
0:23:48 > 0:23:51who wasn't turning the ball over while you were playing good defense.
0:23:51 > 0:23:53And a crucial player for the Bills, LeSean McCoy.
0:23:53 > 0:23:54Shady?
0:23:54 > 0:23:56Shady.
0:23:56 > 0:23:56Not my friend.
0:23:56 > 0:23:58He's maybe Jason's friend.
0:23:58 > 0:23:59He's an outstanding running back, though, there's no
0:23:59 > 0:24:01question about that.
0:24:01 > 0:24:04Cut on a dime, which is exactly what he does alt there.
0:24:04 > 0:24:06Great footwork, great speed, he's had an outstanding season.
0:24:06 > 0:24:08But I don't think he's going to be able to get
0:24:08 > 0:24:09into the playoffs this year.
0:24:09 > 0:24:11So that's what Osi and Jason think.
0:24:11 > 0:24:15You can see how all the action unfolds on Tuesday night,
0:24:15 > 0:24:17with extended highlights on NFL This Week.
0:24:17 > 0:24:20Then next Saturday we'll preview the wild card weekend on the NFL
0:24:20 > 0:24:21Show after Match Of The Day.
0:24:21 > 0:24:24Now, before we go, let's have a look at the highs
0:24:24 > 0:24:26and lows of Christmas week.
0:24:27 > 0:24:30So we've got Tom Brady going to his go-to man, Gronkowski,
0:24:30 > 0:24:33with his amazing one-handed catch.
0:24:33 > 0:24:34I could throw the ball to that guy...
0:24:34 > 0:24:36Can't cover him one-on-one.
0:24:36 > 0:24:37He's just too big and too strong.
0:24:37 > 0:24:40Man.
0:24:40 > 0:24:42Now this next one, I don't feel too comfortable about...
0:24:42 > 0:24:44For obvious reasons!
0:24:44 > 0:24:45But this is Dolphins Jakeem Grant.
0:24:45 > 0:24:46Going through, over, under...
0:24:46 > 0:24:49The Kansas City defense.
0:24:49 > 0:24:51These guys have to learn how to tackle.
0:24:51 > 0:24:52I mean, that cannot happen.
0:24:52 > 0:24:54And this one from DeAndre Hopkins, a one-handed catch.
0:24:54 > 0:24:58Oh, man.
0:24:58 > 0:25:01As a corner, you just sit because you are like, I've got this!
0:25:01 > 0:25:03My gosh, if my mum sees me...
0:25:03 > 0:25:04Catch of the year?
0:25:04 > 0:25:06It could be, it could be.
0:25:06 > 0:25:08And this next one is a cornerback, Williams making
0:25:08 > 0:25:10a stunning one-handed catch.
0:25:10 > 0:25:12We don't talk about that too much, but yeah.
0:25:12 > 0:25:14Bortles had a rough day!
0:25:14 > 0:25:17And here we have Dak Prescott with a bit of nice footwork for you,
0:25:17 > 0:25:27throwing that ball over.
0:25:27 > 0:25:28Look at this...
0:25:28 > 0:25:29Rogers, right there!
0:25:29 > 0:25:31Too bad they lost the game.
0:25:31 > 0:25:32It's one play, one play!
0:25:32 > 0:25:34And this is something you don't see very often.
0:25:34 > 0:25:36This is Jaguars Aaron Colvin returning an extra point attempt.
0:25:36 > 0:25:38Special teams for special players...
0:25:38 > 0:25:39Look at this high five!
0:25:39 > 0:25:41We are friends!
0:25:41 > 0:25:42And who doesn't love snow angels?
0:25:42 > 0:25:45If I was in Cleveland, I would tackle someone for that.
0:25:45 > 0:25:47I love this.
0:25:47 > 0:25:48This is your favourite, isn't it, Osi?
0:25:48 > 0:25:50A nice defensive picture there.
0:25:50 > 0:25:53And last but not least, we have JuJu Smith unwrapping his present!
0:25:53 > 0:25:56YOu have to love JuJu Smith, I think he literally thinks
0:25:56 > 0:26:00about this stuff at home.
0:26:00 > 0:26:05Well, guys, you've made your predictions for this week's games.
0:26:05 > 0:26:07More long-term, I want to know...
0:26:07 > 0:26:09Super Bowl, who are you going to take?
0:26:09 > 0:26:11It's a lot of pressure.
0:26:11 > 0:26:13It is a lot of pressure but you can never...
0:26:13 > 0:26:15Especially at this stage, you can never bet against
0:26:15 > 0:26:18the New England Patriots.
0:26:18 > 0:26:20Are you going to do that?
0:26:20 > 0:26:23You have to, who do you think can upset that football team right now?
0:26:23 > 0:26:24The Pittsburgh Steelers.
0:26:24 > 0:26:25The Chiefs!
0:26:25 > 0:26:26Definitely not the Chiefs.
0:26:26 > 0:26:29The Pittsburgh Steelers have a better team, they just need
0:26:29 > 0:26:31to figure out a way defensively to shut down Gronk.
0:26:31 > 0:26:34If they can do that, they can make it to the Super Bowl.
0:26:34 > 0:26:36Your prediction won't even stand because they won't even
0:26:36 > 0:26:38be in the Super Bowl!
0:26:38 > 0:26:39Yeah?
0:26:39 > 0:26:40We'll see about that.
0:26:40 > 0:26:41OK, over to the NFC.
0:26:41 > 0:26:43Who do you see in there to take the championship...
0:26:43 > 0:26:44Ooh...
0:26:44 > 0:26:46The Vikings.
0:26:46 > 0:26:49I know you are going to say the Vikings but I'm going to go out
0:26:49 > 0:26:52on a limb and say the New Orleans Saints.
0:26:52 > 0:26:54That's a strong call, I thought you were going to go
0:26:54 > 0:26:57with the Rams because of the offense but the Vikings, man.
0:26:57 > 0:26:59Yes, I'm going with the Saints on that one.
0:26:59 > 0:27:03Nice, and finally we are going to show you the current
0:27:03 > 0:27:03odds from the bookies.
0:27:03 > 0:27:05Who do you think offers the best value?
0:27:05 > 0:27:07Listen, the bookies always know best, so whatever the bookies say.
0:27:07 > 0:27:09I'm going to go with the Vikings.
0:27:09 > 0:27:13The first team with the Super Bowl at home.
0:27:13 > 0:27:16Did I tell you about a guy approaching me on the street?
0:27:16 > 0:27:17This was like last year.
0:27:17 > 0:27:20He said, "you said the Pittsburgh Steelers were going to win!
0:27:20 > 0:27:22I bet money and I lost that one!"
0:27:22 > 0:27:23He accosted me on the streets.
0:27:23 > 0:27:24Was he serious?
0:27:24 > 0:27:25He was dead serious.
0:27:25 > 0:27:27I'm not saying anything any more.
0:27:27 > 0:27:29Whatever the bookies say, that's who you go with!
0:27:29 > 0:27:31Well, that's it for another week on the NFL show,
0:27:31 > 0:27:34thanks to Jason and Sam for an outstanding debut.
0:27:34 > 0:27:35The stage is set.
0:27:35 > 0:27:36Who goes?
0:27:36 > 0:27:37Who stays?
0:27:37 > 0:27:39It will all be decided in the next 24 hours.
0:27:39 > 0:27:42Good night!
0:27:43 > 0:27:48Into the final week, the regular season reaches its end...
0:27:48 > 0:27:52Sedately, serenely, without drama in so little parts.
0:27:54 > 0:27:57This is what we have all been waiting for!
0:27:57 > 0:28:02With nerves jangling and fingernails bitten and calculators hammered.
0:28:02 > 0:28:03You've got to win to stay alive.
0:28:03 > 0:28:06Keep the pressure on!
0:28:06 > 0:28:09The calculations that must be done in order to play
0:28:09 > 0:28:12on into the New Year.
0:28:12 > 0:28:14This game is all but finished!
0:28:14 > 0:28:15The stress of making it...
0:28:15 > 0:28:16Let's go!
0:28:16 > 0:28:20The strain of progress, the tolls to be paid...
0:28:20 > 0:28:21Three, two, one...
0:28:21 > 0:28:23Touchdown!
0:28:23 > 0:28:25..On the road to glory.
