Chris Brockman · Aug 5, 2025

Brockman said Russell Wilson is not a Hall of Famer, then delivered a top five list of teams that absolutely cannot win the Super Bowl (Giants, Titans, Browns, Colts, Saints), predicted the Saints get the No. 1 pick next year, the Browns pick in the top five, Joe Flacco won't be a starter in October, and Myles Garrett could win Defensive Player of the Year again.

“The Saints have absolutely 0.0 less than Blutarski chance of winning the Super Bowl.”
