Robert Mays and Kevin Clark get you set for Week 17, including how the crazy AFC wild-card scenario will likely play out (4:04), why NFC teams would rather see Seattle than Atlanta as the 6-seed (16:26), and how resting players in Week 17 will affect the playoff picture and the MVP race (23:40). Then, the guys discuss which coaches need wins Sunday to save their jobs (33:32) and why most teams actually shouldn’t fire their coaches (38:29). Finally, Danny Kelly joins the show to predict next year’s fantasy studs (44:59), including a little-known 49ers receiver who should shine with Jimmy Garoppolo under center (52:16).
