Mike and Jess reflect on the NFL Conference Championship Sunday, with a focus on it being Jess's personal Super Bowl day experience. She shares details about the food spread at her party, featuring an impressive seafood boil and a surprise guest appearance from a co-worker on The Dan Le Batard Show. They dive into the dynamics of hosting big football parties, discussing the pros and cons. Mike and Jess bring up questionable plays, dominant defenses, and the eternal debate on how much blame should be placed on quarterbacks. Smetty raises questions about Lamar Jackson's performance, referee calls, and introduces an intriguing conspiracy theory, prompting Mike to reveal his decision to decline discussing it on a political show. The duo also dissects the Lions vs. 49ers game, exploring where things went wrong for Detroit. Mike passionately shares his thoughts on sports analytics, and they discuss the 49ers' underdog status. They’re then joined by Notre Dame women's basketball player Maddy Westbeld, offering insights on her team’s recent upset against UConn. The trio talks about topics ranging from the perfect cup of coffee to long-standing rivalries and the growing popularity of women's sports.

As a note, the podcast has a schedule change for next week. Catch us Wednesday 2/7 at 11am on DraftKings Network. Next stop…VEGAS!
