Nate Tice & Trevor Sikkema determine how much they trust the current NFL division leaders. Later, Nate breaks down the 2027 QB class.

Nate & Trevor kick things off with the San Francisco 49ers, who are coming off a big win over the Washington Commanders on Monday night. Is there anything that concerns them about this undefeated 9ers roster? Next up are the Cleveland Browns, who are surprisingly leading the tough AFC North through six weeks. Who do they think will finish the season on top?

Next, Nate & Trevor give their thoughts on the chaotic NFC East division, which currently has the New York Giants on top at 3-2-1. The duo move on to the NFC South and the Carolina Panthers (plus Trevor’s thoughts on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers so far) before wrapping things up with some bonus thoughts on the New York Jets and the Detroit Lions, two teams that seem to be flying under the radar this season.

Later, Nate gives his latest thoughts on the 2027 quarterback draft class, which has been very up and down to start the college football season. Is Arch Manning still QB1? Is Trinidad Chambliss a top-10 pick? Is Drew Mestemaker a top-end NFL prospect? Nate opens up the scouting notebook to break it all down.
