Another week of football has concluded, and boy, was it a good one. We had not one but TWO games of the year this week, between the Rams vs Seahawks and the Packers vs Bears. A lot went down, and I'm here to break down every game from this week.

With three weeks left, there is still much to be decided. I break down every game once again this week on another episode of The Master Plan!

DING DONG THE CHIEFS ARE DEAD! What a week in the NFL, so much happened, and I'm here to break it all down for you.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

2025 U.S. Open Preview with Tyler Shultz
Q: What are your expectations for the cut line this week?
A round scoring average potentially at plus four-ish, but for the cut line, it might be plus seven or plus eight.
Talking Ravens with Will Tannebaum
Q: At what point do you think it just gets to be too much?
It's hard to pinpoint a number of playoff losses, but the growing concern is about Lamar's recurring mistakes during critical games.
Talking Ravens with Will Tannebaum
Q: What's your expectation? What does this team need to do this season?
The only goal is winning the Lombardi, given that they've made the playoffs every year and lost in the divisional round.
Talkin' Bruins with Andrew Goldstein
Q: Talk us through what's changed with Jeremy Swainman? Is it partially due to because he didn't have a full offseason? Is it a confidence thing, maybe?
Being told by someone that we don't think you're worth this amount of money and you believe you're worth even more, that can be hard... I think he can up his play as well, and I think he will.
Talkin' Bruins with Andrew Goldstein
Q: Andrew, from what you've seen of both Zadorov and Linholm, do you think that this is more of an acclamation issue, or do you think this is more of a player issue that there's not playing well?
I sure hope it's an acclamation issue. I never like to make judgments right out of the gate.
