<p>We’re back. Real Football returns to break down all six playoff games this weekend. </p><p>What a joy to talk ball with Jim Monos, our Super Bowl champion scout. </p><p>Wild Card Weekend <em>always</em> brings madness. Favre to Sharpe. Music City Miracle. Jerry Rice fumbled. “We want the ball and we’re going to score.” Niners-Giants. Tony Romo’s butterfingers. Beast Quake. Tebowmania. Rodgers vs. Warner. The Comeback. We can fully expect theatrics Saturday, Sunday and Monday. </p><p>Secure your beverage of choice and clear the calendar. </p><p>Sorry, kids. No Bluey this weekend.</p><p>You know where we’ve got to start the show: <em>Bills at Jaguars</em>. It’s been Super Bowl or Bust for a while in Western New York. That’s the reality of the situation when you’re quarterbacked by a future Hall of Famer. These Bills could certainly lose to a solid Jags club on the road. These Bills could also go scorched earth behind a reigning MVP, the NFL’s rushing champ and win the whole damn thing. We try to make sense of this team at this time. </p><p>(Spoiler: You’ll want to stick around for talk on the long-term direction of the Bills at the end of this week’s show.) </p><p>We also dissect everything Rams-Panthers, Packers-Bears, 49ers-Eagles, Chargers-Patriots and Texans-Steelers.</p><p>Drake Maye — <a target="_blank" href="https://www.golongtd.com/p/theres-something-about-drake">a unique talent</a> — is on an MVP trajectory. Justin Herbert faces his latest show-me game. </p><p>You all know what I think about this savage Texans defense <a target="_blank" href="https://www.golongtd.com/p/outlaws-part-i-we-want-you-to-remember">from our latest project.</a> It’s an unapologetically suffocating bunch. Now, you can get Monos’ take. He forecasts a Steeler surprise Monday night. (Of course just a few weeks after we <a target="_blank" href="https://www.golongtd.com/p/real-football-the-pittsburgh-steelers">all killed this team</a>, right?)</p><p>Go Long is fueled by all of <strong>YOU</strong>. I cannot thank everyone enough for reading, listening, watching and sharing with a friend. </p><p><strong>New here?
