Published on by Sports Radio ServiceLeave a comment

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes (15) is thrilled with victory as the Chiefs defeat the Buffalo Bills at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City in the AFC Championship game on Sun Jan 26, 2025

On Super Bowl LIX podcast with Tony Renteria:

#1 Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley had himself an afternoon against the Washington Commanders running for a 60 yard touchdown on the Eagles first play and had a total of 118 yards and three touchdowns.

#2 For Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts for him and his teammates it’s their second trip to the Super Bowl in three seasons and for Barkley it’s his first with the Eagles.

#3 The 55 points in Sunday’s game in Philadelphia is the most that any team had scored in a NFL Championship game since the merging of the NFL and AFL in 1970.

#4 Quite an afternoon for the Kansas City Chiefs defeating the Buffalo Bills. The Chiefs were favored by a 1.5 and that prediction was pretty close as the Chiefs advance to the Super Bowl defeating the Buffalo Bills at Arrowhead Stadium on Sunday 32-29.

#5 Kansas City quarterback Patrick Mahomes went 18-26, 245 yards, and threw for one touchdown and this was not an easy one but Mahomes kept the Chiefs in a close game.

On Headline Sports with Charlie O:

#1 Charlie the NFC Championship kicks off all the excitement of post season football between those Cinderella Washington Commanders and the favored Philadelphia Eagles.

#2 In last week’s games, Washington quarterback Jayden Daniels was key in defeating the heavily favored Detroit Lions last week going 22-31, 299 yards, two touchdowns. For the Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts 15-20, 126 yards and no touchdown passes to beat the Los Angeles Rams.

#3 In the AFC Championship the Buffalo Bills are one of only two teams to have beaten their opponent the Kansas City Chiefs during the regular season back on Nov 17th 30-17. There also had been an outcry that the officiating is favoring the Chiefs in these post season gams.

#4 The Bills in the AFC Division game last week edged the Baltimore Ravens 27-25. The Bills just got by the Ravens and head coach John Harbaugh in a nip and tuck game. The game boiled down to a missed two point conversion on a pass from the Ravens quarterback LaMar Jackson on a 24 yard pass intended for wide receiver Isaiah Likely failing to tie the game and a two point difference going to the Chiefs.

#5 Charlie it boils down to today’s two NFL Championship games who do you see getting to the Super Bowl and can you see anyone of these two games being a nailbiter?

#1 Charlie O, are the Washington Commanders that underdog, under rated team and going through their post season portfolio, they won their first round of the playoff game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers back on Dec 29th in overtime and advanced to face the Detroit Lions on Saturday night.

Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes threw to Travis Kelce seven times for 117 yards and and a touchdown as the Chiefs took out the Texans 23-14 to advance to the AFC Championship.

#3 Las Vegas Raiders minority owner Tom Brady is said to be courting Detroit Lions offensive coordinator Ben Johnson to be the front runner for the head coaching opening at the Raiders. There is very little doubt that Brady and other NFL teams will be reaching out to Johnson knowing the success he’s had with the Lions offense.

#4 The San Francisco Giants are rumored to be working a three player blockbuster deal to obtain Toronto Blue Jays star Vladimir Guerrero Jr. for reliever Camilo Doval, infielder/outfielder Marco Luciano, and outfielder James Tibbs III. The Jays have not been able to seal a deal with Guerrero and the Giants are said to be willing to break the bank and spend $333 to $426 million to get Guerrero who might be San Francisco’s ticket to get to the post season.

#5 The Athletics are hoping to develop Japanese 18 year old two way player Shotaro Morii and were able to bypass the Japanese professional league getting Morii for a minor league signing bonus of $1,510,500. Morii will become the sixth A’s Japanese player and the fifth Japanese born player joining Shintaro Fujinami, Hideki Okajima, Hideki Okjima, Akinori Iwamura, Keiichi Yabu, Hideki Matsui and American Born Japanese catcher Kurt Suzuki.

On Headline Sports podcast with Jessica Kwong:

#1 The New York Jets Aaron Rogers still has it he threw four touchdown passes against the Miami Dolphins in a 32-20 on Sunday. Some had doubted Rogers ability to return but he turned it up a notch against a playoff bound team.

#2 After losing six straight games the Tennessee Titans have clinched for a shot at the No.1 NFL draft pick a quarterback. The Titans benched their starter Will Levis and can choose either one of the top college quarterbacks Colorado Buffaloes Shedeur Sanders or Miami’s Cam Ward that they can acquire in a draft or a trade.

#3 The New York Giants win last week over the Indianapolis Colts 45-33 on Sun Dec 29th cost the Giants a shot at the No.1 draft pick. With the win the Giants moved into third place at a shot for the top pick. The Giants could try and trade for Rogers if Rogers wants to stay in the number media market and play for the Giants who struggled all season.

#4 The Las Vegas Raiders after losing ten straight games and won two straight lost their chance at the No.1 draft pick slipping to six place in the top sweepstakes lottery. The Raiders are looking for a quarterback Minority owner and Super Bowl Champion Tom Brady who has a great relationship with Rogers might try and entice Rogers to consider coming to Vegas and continue his career there.

#5 The Indianapolis Colts who drafted quarterback Anthony Richardson as their overall fourth pick in 2023 has not been the kind of quarterback that they expected. The Colts have not been in the post season since 2020. They also fell short in 2021 when they went 9-8 with quarterback Carson Wentz and were no better in 2022 going 4-12-1 with quarterback Matt Ryan . The Colts are hoping that Rogers will consider coming to Indianapolis and help Richardson with some tips to help improve for the 2025 season.

On the Las Vegas Raiders podcast with Tony R:

The Las Vegas Raiders fired head coach Antonio Pierce on Tuesday after leading the team to a 4-12 season. Last season Pierce became interim coach after the Raiders fired Josh McDaniels midway during the 2023 when Pierce took over and led the team to a 5-4 record.

After starting the season 2-2 the Raiders went on a ten game losing streak that went from Oct 6 to ended on Dec Sun Dec 29th in New Orleans. The Raiders injuries Maxx Crosby and Christian Wilkins put a dent in the Raiders line up. Earlier in the season wide receiver Davante Adams wanted a trade which he got to get out of Vegas and went to the New York Jets. There was no smooth sailing for the Raiders this season.
