    31 People Didn’t Want Aaron Rodgers. Let That Sink In.

    The SEC is threatening to EXPEL LSU — and Maggie Gray thinks the conference has gone way too far. On the newest episode of A Must Win Game with Maggie Gray, Maggie gives her STOCK UP and STOCK DOWN on the biggest stories in college football and the NFL. First: STOCK DOWN on the SEC's escalating fight with LSU and Lane Kiffin. The SEC is threatening to remove LSU from the conference after LSU challenged the league's new rule preventing players with previous NFL roster experience from returning to college football. Maggie argues that the entire situation is a massive overreaction, especially because the controversy stems from changes to NCAA eligibility rules that created this unusual situation in the first place. The SEC has now moved toward a vote on whether LSU should be expelled from the conference. Then: STOCK DOWN on Aaron Rodgers. The New York Jets interviewed 16 candidates for head coach and 15 candidates for general manager during their 2025 search — and according to Maggie, all 31 ultimately said they would pass on Aaron Rodgers. Thirty-one people. Maggie also has a bigger problem with Jets owner Woody Johnson. What does it say about the New York Jets when so many people appear to have a voice in major football decisions? Maggie argues that Woody Johnson has too many voices around him and too many people influencing who gets hired, fired and retained. And finally, Maggie makes her Super Bowl prediction. She's taking the BALTIMORE RAVENS vs. the SEATTLE SEAHAWKS. Are the Ravens and Seahawks legitimate Super Bowl contenders? Can Lamar Jackson finally get Baltimore back to the Super Bowl? Can Seattle make a run all the way to the NFL championship? Maggie breaks it all down in the latest episode of A Must Win Game.

    Maggie vs. Perloff: Who’s Right About Michigan? The Rams? and more

    Andrew “McLovin” Perloff is back with Maggie Gray — and he has plenty to say about the biggest football storylines of the moment. College football is already surrounded by controversy, from Michigan’s wild finish against Western Michigan to the ongoing LSU and Lane Kiffin eligibility drama. Perloff joins Maggie to break down why college football has become such a mess before we’ve even gotten through the opening week. Then Perloff takes aim at Maggie’s NFL predictions — specifically her decision to fade the Los Angeles Rams. Does he think the Rams are being seriously underrated? And the conversation turns to Jalen Hurts after his revealing new GQ interview. Perloff explains why he believes Hurts needs to run more this season — and why Philadelphia could be in trouble if Hurts becomes too pass-first. Maggie Gray and Andrew Perloff debate Michigan, LSU, Lane Kiffin, the Rams, Jalen Hurts, the Eagles and everything already making headlines in college football and the NFL.

    Did Kawhi Leonard Get Away With It?

    Was Kawhi Leonard more involved in the Clippers salary-cap scandal than we realize? Maggie Gray welcomes Mike Vorkunov, basketball writer for The Athletic, to break down the fallout from the Kawhi Leonard and Los Angeles Clippers scandal — including the biggest unanswered question: could Kawhi have played a larger role in an effort to circumvent the NBA salary cap in order to get more money? Why does Steve Ballmer and the Clippers organization appear to have taken far more of the fallout than Kawhi Leonard? And what does the scandal mean for the NBA? Plus, Maggie welcomes On3 college football insider Brett McMurphy to discuss the chaotic legal battle over fifth-year college eligibility. Competing lawsuits in Louisiana and federal court in Alabama are raising a bizarre question: Can players who have been on NFL rosters return to college and play another season? It's a three-ring circus involving the NCAA, college football programs, NFL players, coaches and the courts — and the outcome could fundamentally change college football eligibility.

    THE NFL IS ABOUT TO START TANKING

    Could nearly one-third of the NFL have an incentive to tank for a quarterback? On the latest episode of A Must Win Game with Maggie Gray, Maggie looks at the surprising number of NFL teams that could potentially lose interest in winning in 2026 if their season starts going sideways — because the 2027 NFL Draft could feature an extraordinary group of quarterbacks. With names like Arch Manning, Dante Moore and other highly regarded prospects potentially available, quarterback-needy teams could have a huge incentive to think about the future rather than fight for a few extra wins. Maggie's count? Nearly one-third of the NFL could potentially be looking toward the 2027 quarterback class. So which teams could be sellers at the trade deadline? Which teams might decide there's more value in losing than winning? And could the NFL actually see an NBA-style tanking conversation develop around the next franchise quarterback? Maggie breaks down why the 2027 QB class could completely change the incentives for struggling NFL teams. Also on the episode: time stamps 00:45 Joe Burrow's surprising admission about once believing he wouldn't have a long NFL career — and whether Bengals fans should be concerned. 7:48 Steve Sarkisian's criticism of NFL players attempting to return to college football for another year of eligibility — despite a Texas player being involved in a similar legal fight. 13:31 Tarik Skubal's espresso machine drama after taking the machine he bought for the Tigers clubhouse with him to Los Angeles. 17:32 How many NFL teams will be tanking for a QB? 26:40 Why Maggie doesn't see the Yankees making a World Series run, with questions surrounding Aaron Judge, the pitching staff and shortstop.

    The Fake 49ers Player Who Stole $1.3 Million

    He pretended to be a San Francisco 49ers wide receiver — and allegedly stole more than $1.3 million from more than 26 women.   On the latest episode of A Must Win Game with Maggie Gray, Maggie dives into the bizarre and disturbing story of Daejon Love, who was arrested and charged with wire fraud after allegedly posing as an NFL player.   According to the United States Attorney, Love used the fake 49ers identity to allegedly defraud more than 26 women out of more than $1.3 million.   The story has gone viral — and Maggie breaks down how a fake NFL identity became the centerpiece of an alleged million-dollar fraud scheme.   Also on the episode:   🏈 Bill Belichick's UNC debut: Belichick and North Carolina opened the season with a win over TCU in Dublin, Ireland. But after last year's disastrous 4-8 season, is one victory enough to believe Belichick can actually turn things around?   🐯 Lane Kiffin's LSU spectacle: LSU's detailed pregame walkthrough before facing Clemson includes cheerleaders, the band, a flyover and even an intrasquad game in which the LSU starters reportedly beat the backups 86-18. If Kiffin's plan works, he looks like a genius. If it doesn't, critics will have plenty of ammunition.   ⚾ Pete Crow-Armstrong's incredible rise: The Cubs star has emerged as the runaway favorite for National League MVP — but he was once a Mets prospect who was traded to New York for Javy Báez, who played only 47 games for the Mets.   Four unbelievable sports stories, all on the latest A Must Win Game with Maggie Gray.   Time stamps 1:02 the story of Daejon Love is crazy 11:02 Bill Belichick got a win   17:30 LSU's crazy prep for Clemson 20:53 Pete Crow Armstrong is the runaway favorite for National League MVP, which is a disaster for the Mets who traded him for Javy Baez.     #DaejonLove #49ers #NFL #SanFrancisco49ers #NFLNews #Fraud #BillBelichick #UNC #LaneKiffin #LSU #PeteCrowArmstrong #Cubs #MLB #AMustWinGame Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

    Can NFL Players Really Go Back to College Football?

    Can NFL players really go back to college football? More than 100 athletes are suing for a fifth year of college eligibility, arguing they are entitled to another season — and some of these athletes have already played professional football. Some have been on NFL rosters, participated in NFL training camps and even played in NFL preseason games. On the latest episode of A Must Win Game with Maggie Gray, Maggie is joined by Matt Moscona, who covers LSU for After Further Review and Locked on LSU and is the publisher of LouisianaSports.net, to unpack one of the strangest eligibility battles in college football. What role does Lane Kiffin play in the story? Is this simply a one-time legal fight involving a group of athletes? Or could state court decisions create a precedent that opens the door for athletes to move between professional football and college football? If athletes can play in the NFL and then return to college, the implications for college football could be enormous. Maggie and Matt break down the lawsuit, the athletes involved and what could happen next. Plus, Maggie examines the strangest offseason in recent San Francisco 49ers history, from Jed York's arrest in an undercover police sting to Kyle Shanahan's car accident and concussion, an unusual trip to Australia to play the Rams and an aging, injury-plagued roster. But the big question is: Could this eligibility fight completely change the relationship between college football and the NFL?

    Deshaun Watson Just Picked a Fight With Browns Fans | A Must Win Game with Maggie Gray

    Why is Deshaun Watson angry at Browns fans? On the latest episode of A Must Win Game with Maggie Gray, Maggie gives Deshaun Watson a Stock Down after the Cleveland Browns quarterback criticized fans for booing him and said their treatment of him was personal. But Maggie has a question: What exactly are Browns fans supposed to be cheering? Watson's football career in Cleveland has been defined by injuries, limited availability and disappointing production. So while Watson says the boos are personal and aren't about his football, Maggie argues that his football performance — or lack of it — is absolutely part of the reason Cleveland fans are frustrated. And this is the latest negative chapter in one of the most controversial quarterback situations in the NFL. Maggie breaks down why Watson's confrontation with Browns fans could make an already difficult relationship even worse. Also on the episode:   This is A Must Win Game with Maggie Gray, a sports podcast for sports fans.   time stamps 1:02 📉 Stock Down: Bengals head coach Zac Taylor after Joe Burrow says he feels the most urgency of his career. 7:43  📉Stock Down Deshaun Watson for picking a fight with Browns fans 14:30 📈 Stock Up: The teams that missed out on Shohei Ohtani — because the Dodgers' ownership situation could create an intriguing twist involving Ohtani's contract. #DeshaunWatson #ClevelandBrowns #Browns #NFL #NFLNews #BrownsFans #JoeBurrow #ZacTaylor #ShoheiOhtani #Dodgers #AMustWinGame Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

    My 2026 NFL Predictions and why I'm betting against the Buffalo Bills

    What will happen during the 2026 NFL season? Maggie Gray has some bold predictions.   On A Must Win Game with Maggie Gray, Maggie breaks down four of her biggest predictions for the upcoming NFL season.   Miami Dolphins   Maggie predicts the Miami Dolphins will be historically bad. Why does she believe Miami is headed for such a disastrous season?   Tennessee Titans   Former New York Jets head coach Robert Saleh is now leading the Titans, with former New York Giants head coach Brian Daboll serving as offensive coordinator. Maggie questions whether this coaching combination can work in Tennessee.   Detroit Lions   After missing the playoffs last season, Dan Campbell and the Detroit Lions are facing increased pressure. Maggie believes Lions fans have every right to demand another Super Bowl-caliber team — especially after some of Campbell's controversial playoff decisions in previous seasons.   Buffalo Bills   Maggie's boldest prediction may be about her own team. She believes the Buffalo Bills will go UNDER their win total and won't earn home-field advantage in the AFC playoffs.   Buffalo has a new head coach in Joe Brady, who has never previously served as an NFL head coach, and a new defensive coordinator in Jim Leonard, who is implementing a different defensive scheme. Add in an extremely difficult schedule, and Maggie believes the Bills face a much tougher 2026 season than many people expect.   These are Maggie's biggest NFL predictions for 2026 with time stamps   1:01 Are the Dolphins really headed for a historically bad season? 5:15 Can Saleh and Daboll work together in Tennessee? 12:20 Is Dan Campbell under enough pressure in Detroit? 17:08 Will the Bills really go under their win total?   Watch, comment and let Maggie know which prediction you think she got right — or completely wrong.   #NFL2026 #2026NFL #NFLPredictions #NFLSeason #NFLNews #MiamiDolphins #BuffaloBills #DetroitLions #TennesseeTitans #RobertSaleh #BrianDaboll #DanCampbell #JoeBrady #JimLeonard #NFLFootball Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
