In this episode of The Basement Boyz, we dive head-first into some of the biggest and most controversial storylines shaking up the NFL right now.

We start by reacting to the shocking decision to move on from John Harbaugh and what this means for the future of the Baltimore Ravens franchise. Is this the right move—or a massive mistake?

Then we break down how the NFL playoffs impact quarterback legacies, discussing which QBs have the most to gain and which ones have the most to lose under the brightest lights. From pressure-packed moments to long-term narratives, playoff football can change everything.

We also address one of the most tired storylines in football: the Lamar Jackson choking narrative. We explain why it needs to stop and how context, roster construction, and expectations play a major role in how quarterbacks are judged.

Plus, we stir the pot with a hot take you won’t want to miss—should kickers even be considered football players? 🥴

To close it out, we make our case for why Justin Herbert is firmly in the elite quarterback tier, despite team results and playoff criticism.

If you love NFL debates, quarterback legacy talk, playoff breakdowns, and unapologetic hot takes, this episode is for you.
