About this episode

Chris Long previews the AFC and NFC South divisions ahead of the 2026 NFL season, discussing key players and teams.

In the middle of NFL training camp, Chris Long delivers his final preview ahead of the 2026 NFL season. The NFC and AFC South is ready for battle. Trevor Lawrence and the Jaguars will face fierce competition from the Houston Texans defense in their matchups but it could come down to the play of CJ Stroud to determine the winner of the AFC South. The Colts look to overcome the injury bug with Daniel Jones while the Titans look to take another step with Cam Ward and company. Baker Mayfield and the Buccaneers are on a mission after really dropping the ball in 2025 but will Bryce Young and the Panthers build on their playoff appearance last season? Will the Saints and Falcons surprise teams in 2026? Who comes out on top at the end of the season in these two divisions?
