In this episode of Captains Log, Rob breaks down a busy slate of NBA and NFL action that felt more like a movie than real life.
On the NBA side, Rob reacts to Trae Young being traded from the Atlanta Hawks to the Washington Wizards, sharing his perspective as a diehard Wizards fan. He talks through the positives, concerns, and whether this move keeps Washington alive in the play-in race. The discussion includes a clip from Carmelo Anthony’s 7PM in Brooklyn podcast reacting to the trade.
The NFL conversation shifts to Wild Card Weekend, with a full AFC and NFC recap. Rob highlights the Bears vs. Packers matchup — a game that felt scripted from start to finish — along with reactions to the Jaguars vs. Bills game and the viral moment involving reporter Lynn Jones and coach Liam Coen. A clip from Matt Barnes of the Up In Smoke podcast is played as he weighs in on the backlash surrounding that moment.
The episode also covers the Texans vs. Steelers result, Mike Tomlin’s departure after 19 seasons, and wraps up with Rob’s picks for the Divisional Round.
