In this week's edition of Keefer and the Beats, Zak dives into three potential playoff teams with The Athletic NFL beat writers Michael-Shawn Dugar (Seahawks), Jon Machota (Cowboys), and Nate Taylor (Chiefs). The discussion starts on the Seahawks adding to an already deep defensive line group. Then we shift to the Cowboys and ponder if they're just a tease or ready to take the next step. And then lastly, a breakdown of the Chiefs' unexpected loss to the Broncos.  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

We're through eight weeks of the 2023 NFL regular season, and we just might have our most wide open year in recent memory. The Chiefs and 49ers lost on Sunday.

Robert Mays and Nate Tice dig into all that, and a whole lot more, on this episode of The Athletic Football Show.Follow Robert on Twitter: @robertmaysFollow Nate on Twitter: @Nate_TiceSubscribe to The Athletic Football Show...AppleSpotifyYouTube Hosted on Acast.
