The GM Shuffle with Michael Lombardi and Femi Abebefe

Mid-Season Awards, Top Teams Fall, Week 9 Recap

We’re officially halfway through the season. The guys give out their mid-season awards, including MVP and Coach of the Year, recap the first half of the year, and preview what we can expect from teams heading into the playoffs. Top teams like the Bills, Cowboys, and Rams all look very weak, did they all run out of steam for a game or is this a sign of a dropoff? The Titans and Cardinals were able to get wins without star players. The Titans sit atop the AFC, can they still make a playoff run without Henry? And the 49ers are in serious trouble after losing to the Cardinals without most of their top weapons. Lamar sets more rushing records as he makes another case for MVP, and Mike’s sons face off against each other as the Pats take care of the Panthers.
