The ‘Onside Kick Family Hour’: The scariest team in the NFL playoffs

Retired NFL defensive end Stephen White and RVB are back this week to talk about the catch rule, touchbacks, the playoff picture, and DUUUUVVVAAAALLL!!

Well, hello there, friends. You’ve stumbled upon one hell of an NFL podcast. This week on the show, Stephen White and I are trying to make sense of all the screwy rules we saw play out last Sunday, from index cards to what exactly constitutes a catch these days.

But the real treat we have on tap in this episode is a look ahead to the playoffs, specifically a fun little segment about why the Jacksonville Jaguars are literally the most dangerous team in the playoffs this year.

They run the football incredibly well. The defense is DOMINANT at all levels. They will tolerate no disrespect, and Jalen Ramsey’s trash talk is an art all to itself. Oh, and their one biggest weakness, quarterback Blake Bortles, is playing some lights-out football right now. Yeah, seriously. Stephen walks you through why Bortles is so much better than we’ve come to expect and how that makes the Jaguars such a threat to any and all comers in January.

Come on, you don’t want to see Ramsey trash talking Tom Brady? Are you human?

Also on the show this week:

• Here’s a shocker: The NFL catch rule sucks! But you already knew that. What you didn’t know is that it could be better. It doesn’t have to be this complicated.
• The same goes for touchbacks when a player fumbles into the end zone.
• The NFC playoff picture...which is the best team there? It’s probably the Vikings. And we’ll explain why.
• Thomas Davis got what he deserved with a one-game suspension for his hit on Davante Adams.
