John recaps the tumultuous 2025 season for the NY Giants and looks ahead to a crucial but uncertain offseason with Joe Schoen still in place. Seamus' hopes the Packers season can stay alive one week at a time, starting with a inter-division playoff battle against the Bears. The duo discuss their "dark horse" playoff teams and make their picks for the games this wildcard weekend.

After a brutal defensive effort by the Packers against the Ravens in Week 17, Seamus' list grievances have only grown from last week. The only saving grace in this game was the play of backup QB Malik Willis, who was need perfect in that game. The duo discuss his performance and the potential future he can have in the NFL.

Meanwhile, the Giants in their first meaningful game since October, once again forget how to tank properly. The Giants after beating the 2-win Raiders now sit at the number two spot in the draft behind Vegas. John feels some deja vu as the Giants look close out another miserable season and is uncertain of the team's future with a GM he has little to no hope in.

Happy Holidays from the Decleated Duo! Seamus is as distraught as he can remember after a regular season loss. And in the spirit of everyone's favorite holiday, Festivus, he has some grievances to air related to the Packers' performance in Chicago. Meanwhile, John has been airing grievances all year so he tries to keep it positive. Unsuccessful, he pivots to Oregon's first win in the 12 team CFP era and their outlook going forward. Finally, Seamus can't help himself and has to give his thoughts on USC backing out of the Notre Dame rivalry game for the foreseeable future.

John and Seamus commiserate about their respective miserable Sundays, which came from a multitude of sources. John endured the freezing cold temperatures and snowy weather just to watch the Commanders ice out the Gmen. On the other hand, Seamus battled train delays and spotty wifi just to watch the injury riddled Packers blow a 9 point lead to the Broncos. By far the most significant of those injuries being Micah Parsons' season ending Torn ACL he sustained in the third quarter. Nonetheless, the Duo find some things to look forward to, namely a playoff push for the Pack and an exciting CFP season incoming.

The Packers took care of business against the Bears at Lambeau but Seamus is withholding his final judgements for another two weeks. For now, he's pleased with the way the Packers played, especially offensively, but he knows the job's not finished. John doesn't have much to say since the Giants were idle last week but he looks ahead (not forward) for their upcoming game against Washington. After a shortened Giants segment, John is chomping at the bit to bring up the less exciting part of Seamus' Sunday, which was the Notre Dame Fighting Irish being removed from the CFP bracket. The Duo debate Notre Dame's exclusion, and the college football playoff selection process overall, in an animated segment you won't want to miss.

The Packers and Giants bookend the football filled Thanksgiving weekend. Seamus' Thanksgiving couldn't have been better as his Packer get a huge divisional win against the Lions to start. The Giants however, struggle on Primetime against the AFC leading Patriots. John reacts to the narratives surrounding the team and Joe Schoen's bye week presser. Seamus looks ahead to another key matchup against Chicago.

Another week, another double digit 4th quarter lead blown by the New York Football Giants. John is disappointed but not surprised. The one silver lining is that the defense might have a new look going forward under new leadership following the dismissal of DC Shane Bowen. Meanwhile Seamus takes a breath of fresh air as the Packers dominate the Vikings from whistle to whistle, in all three phases of the game, a phenomenon not seen in a while. But there is no rest for the weary as Green Bay is on to another huge divisional matchup with the Lions on Thanksgiving. The Duo also look forward to the remainder of the enticing Thanksgiving day slate and its impact on the playoff picture following week 13.

The Decleated Duo recap on their Sunday leading up to and including the Packers 27-20 win against the Giants. Seamus is happy to have discovered possibly the best thing to come to breakfast since the fried egg... the bratwurst, egg and cheese! He was also quite happy that the Packers had the get-back game they so needed. Meanwhile, John was disappointed but not surprised about the outcome of the first game in the Kafka-led Giants era.
