Pushing the Pile: A CBS Sports NFL Podcast

Latest Episodes:

Evaluating Aaron Rodgers' future in Green Bay and what's next for Matthew Stafford and Deshaun Watson (Football 1/27) Jan 27, 2021

Show notes

The Super Bowl awaits but amidst the conversation around the big game, there's plenty of quarterback drama around the league that doesn't involve Tom Brady and Patrick Mahomes. On this episode, Will Brinson is joined by Brady Quinn to break down the futures of Aaron Rodgers (9:15), Matthew Stafford (23:00) and Deshaun Watson (34:15). Let's not rush to get Rodgers out of Green Bay. There are definitely lingering questions with the presence of 2020 1st-round pick Jordan Love, but the Packers probably aren't ready to hand over the team just yet. Brady also breaks down the timing of the Stafford split and how the organizational structure will play a role in his departure. And of course, we have to provide the latest updates with the Texans in the trade talks of the offseason that simply won't go away.

Early Super Bowl LV Betting Preview: Chiefs-Bucs Spread/Total Breakdown & Picks (Football 1/26) Jan 26, 2021

Show notes

We're nearly two weeks away from Super Bowl LV, but gambling is already a focus. On this episode, Will Brinson is joined by Kenny White to break down Chiefs-Bucs from a betting perspective. First, the guys assess their conference championship picks (1:00), before evaluating the big game. Kansas City opened as 3.5-point favorites but the spread has settled in at 3 and Kenny doesn't foresee much movement coming (7:30). By now, we're all aware that Tampa will be the first team to play a Super Bowl in their own stadium, but how could that be factored into the line (9:45)? Will and Kenny give a tip for the moneyline, break down the total (16:30) and more on this early betting preview!

NFL Conference Championship Recap: Bucs-Chiefs set for Super Bowl LV as Tom Brady makes 10th appearance and Kansas City looks to go back-to-back (Football 1/25) Jan 25, 2021

Show notes

Super Bowl LV is set. Tom Brady will be back on the big stage, but this time leading a different team from a different conference. Meanwhile, the defending champs will look to defend their crown. The Bucs beat the Packers and the Chiefs beat the Bills to get to our matchup in Tampa in two weeks. On this episode, Will Brinson is joined by Ryan Wilson and John Breech to break down the conference championship games and look ahead to the Super Bowl. First, the guys have to discuss Matt LaFleur's decision making at the end of the NFC Championship Game (3:00). Why kick in that situation? Aaron Rodgers distanced himself from the decision and our crew tends to do the same. They also break down defensive lapses from the Packers and Kevin King, a somewhat controversial late pass interference call and much more. Rodgers outplayed Brady, but that didn't lead to the result you'd think. Then, the Pick Six Superfriends analyze Kansas City's dominant defeat of Buffalo and ability to flip the switch in the AFC Championship Game (34:00). Andy Reid could be the best coach on the planet right now and his team is clicking headed back to another Super Bowl. Brinson, Wilson and Breech begin to set the scene for Tampa with much more to come on the Pick Six podcast. Finally, they finish with winners & losers from championship Sunday (55:30).

Patrick Mahomes in concussion protocol, Tom Brady & Aaron Rodgers continue to evolve late in career (Football 1/20) Jan 20, 2021

Show notes

The weekly edition of the Brady Quinn Football Show has arrived. BQ joins Will Brinson to break down all things NFL playoffs starting with Patrick Mahomes working his way through the concussion protocol (5:00). Brady offers insight on that process and the path for Mahomes to return this weekend. The guys then shift focus to the battle of older QBs in the NFC. Credit Tom Brady for his method and for adapting well into his 40s (16:30). Aaron Rodgers isn't quite at that mark but has also evolved through the years (22:30). But no matter what happens with this Packers season, there is still a 1st-round pick sitting behind him on the bench in Jordan Love. How will that situation play out? Brinson and Brady offer a deeper look at the AFC Championship (36:00), before analyzing the end of the year for the Browns (44:45), Rams (50:30) and Saints (53:15).
