We’re kicking off four huge NFL games this weekend so sit back in your recliner, office chair, car seat or bean bag, crack open your favorite beverage and pour it into your IceShaker and let Chris and Glenn Gronkowski help prepare for your Saturday and Sunday’s NFL games. It’s all exclusive to GetMoreSports.com.

For the first time in the podcast’s history, both guys missed on their Bulletproof picks last week. They’d gone 18 weeks without that happening, but if anything this should just give the guys extra motivation to nail their divisional round picks.

Last week, Chris went with the underdog Seattle Seahawks over the Dallas Cowboys at -1.5. The Cowboys, of course, won 24-22 and covered. Glenn went 3-1 in his Capper’s Cup so the week wasn’t a disaster.

The guys pick every game in this weekend’s playoff action. Here’s a quick primer of where things sit as of Thursday night.

Chris goes with a dog in his Bulletproof pick of the week and it might come as a shock to you which team he’s tossing onto the Bulletproof Party Bus. I agree with him on that pick and make the same one in the Friday Afternoon Quarterback.

For Glenn, he’s taking a favorite on the same side of the bracket. It’s the first time Glenn has selected this particular team for his Bulletproof pick, and that might come as a surprise to some. His reasoning is sound across the board and he has the facts and figures to back it up.

From there, Chris and Glenn review the Wild Card round and some of the shocking results.

“Are the Eagles going to do this all over gain?” Chris asks. “Is this even possible?”

“You want to say, this is not possible, but how can you say that?” Glenn said. “You thought they were out of it last year. Somehow they keep pulling it off. They just keep winning. They’re underdogs and they love it.”

That segues into a discussion of the heinous fan reaction to Chicago Bears kicker Cody Parkey’s missed field goal in the Wild Card round. Parkey’s kick was blocked by an Eagles defensive lineman, but the fans all originally thought he’d just hit it off the left upright and were not pleased to say the least.

Before the show wraps up, the guys deliver the rest of their divisional round picks and answer the fan question of the week.
