On this week’s episode of Controlled Burnes, host SlowBurne welcomes guest Brett Fox to the podcast and the two go back and forth making their playoff predictions for the 2024-25 NFL season. Both guys pick each division champion and three wildcards for both the AFC and NFC and SlowBurne goes so far as to lay out his entire playoff bracket. And, of course, both make their pick for who will ultimately take the Lombardi Trophy in the 2025 Superbowl. Additionally, both make their picks for the top five quarterbacks so far this season. Both guys have some hot takes in store, so check it out if you’re following this year’s season. Then, as a bonus, SlowBurne checks out The Game Awards’ nominees and he and Brett make their selections for (most of) the ballots. It’s a jam-packed show and we hope you enjoy.
