Seattle Seahawks Best Super Bowl Sleeper: Watch Now
Things change fast. In terms of 2026 Super Bowl favorites, it was the Los Angeles Rams and everyone else. BUT the Seattle Seahawks are legit sleepers, along with the Texans. Smart money has Bills or Patriots as AFC favorites. Super Bowl 2026 here we come. (Still true weeks later)
New England Patriots Best Team in NFL: Watch Now
There isn’t a single team in the AFC that I see beating the New England Patriots in the playoffs. With a Josh McDaniels offense that’s above average and an above average defense, who’s stopping the Patriots? They don’t make mistakes and I’m having deja vu. (Still true a month later)
Time will tell if the optimist (Dan), the pessimist (Bud), or the realist (Phil) is right. Here’s hoping the games are fun to watch!
Your ‘3 Man Booth‘ is the only sports talk show that’s 100% football, straight out of the fan’s mouth. Dan Salem with Phil and Bud. Comment with your thoughts on the New York Jets and New York Giants. Will our suffering continue? Bud’s a pessimist, but will he once again be uncomfortably optimistic this season? Unlikely. Phil and Dan attempt optimism, but its so darn hard with these two football teams.
