Later, the duo each organize all 32 NFL teams into tiers. Charles and Jori go tier-by-tier to break down the teams all in on winning the Super Bowl, the teams in full rebuild mode and everything in between. 1:40 - NFL News! The duo react to Lloyd Howell becoming the new executive director of the NFLPA and what it means for the league as well as the latest round of gambling suspensions for a few Indianapolis Colts and a Tennessee Titan. Charles believes this will be one of the last times we see a big wave of gambling suspensions as players start to realize the consequences.12:15 - Charles and Jori dive into Charles' latest article on the five players most likely to have big bounce-back seasons: Atlanta Falcons TE Kyle Pitts, Los Angeles Rams QB Matthew Stafford, Pittsburgh Steelers RB Najee Harris, Arizona Cardinals SAF Isaiah Simmons and Chicago Bears WR Chase Claypool.25:25 - NFL team tiers: Jori and Charles organize every NFL team into five tiers of contention, starting with Super Bowl or bust. Both have the Kansas City Chiefs, Philadelphia Eagles, Cincinnati Bengals and San Francisco 49ers in this tier, but Charles includes the Buffalo Bills and the Baltimore Ravens with their talented roster and Jori includes the New York Jets with their addition of Aaron Rodgers and their short contention window.32:55 - Super Bowl sleepers: both hosts have the Miami Dolphins, Seattle Seahawks and Dallas Cowboys in this tier, but Charles includes the Los Angeles Chargers and Jacksonville Jaguars because he loves the potential of their quarterbacks.36:55 - Playoff hopefuls: both hosts include the Minnesota Vikings, Detroit Lions, New York Giants, New Orleans Saints, Denver Broncos and Pittsburgh Steelers.
