Mahomes Struggles, Eagles Spiral & The Worst CFP Bracket Ever? | NFL Week 14 & CFP Bracket Reaction

Hosts Brad Fowler and Alex Higdon break down all the biggest storylines from Week 14 in the NFL and the final College Football Playoff rankings — and why the committee may have botched the bracket worse than ever before.

We cover — the Chiefs suffering another crushing loss, this time to the Texans, putting Kansas City officially on the ropes with barely a 15% chance to reach the postseason. Mahomes and the offense continue to stall while the defense keeps this team afloat, and we break down why KC may need to win out just to have a shot. The Eagles drop their third straight in a fist-fight loss to the Chargers as Jalen Hurts turns it over five times and Philly searches for answers. The Packers get a huge win over the rival Bears, but Chicago impresses even in defeat as Caleb Williams flashes star-level talent while Green Bay continues to look like a real Super Bowl contender.

Plus — Josh Allen puts on the cape yet again as the Bills rally late to beat the Bengals, even as Buffalo’s defense continues to be a major liability. The Lions beat the Cowboys but Detroit’s defense remains a glaring issue, Dallas continues to slide out of the playoff picture, and we debate just how real either of these teams is in December. And is Shedeur Sanders the Browns' QB of the future? After throwing for 364 yards and three touchdowns, the conversation is heating up.

In College Football, the CFP Rankings were a complete mess — maybe the worst we’ve ever seen. Alabama and BYU got blown out in their conference title games, opening the door for both Notre Dame and Miami, but the committee punished one loss and ignored the other. Tulane and JMU somehow land in the field despite résumé gaps that make no sense, the ACC’s disastrous tiebreaker system led to a 7–5 Duke team in the title game, and for the first time, Notre Dame appears to have been punished for not playing in a conference. We break down why the system is broken, why G5 auto-bids are tanking the bracket, and what big changes could (and should) be coming after this season.

We also reveal our CFP Top 12 — including why Ole Miss shouldn’t be in, why BYU sneaks in despite the loss, and why coaching matters as much as résumé.
