With only two days left before Super Bowl LIII, Yahoo Sports' Charles Robinson and Terez Paylor are joined by Dan Wetzel of the Yahoo Sports College Podcast to give their final thoughts from Atlanta ahead of the big game. They discuss the Patriots' preparedness, if any other Super Bowl quarterbacks match Tom Brady's cool, the importance of Greg Zuerlein and what makes New England's defense so difficult to score against in the postseason.

They also discuss some interesting developments regarding the NFL Players Association, the likelihood of a lockout in 2021 and the impending changes legalized gambling might bring to football (22:30). The guys wrap up the first half of the show with their final Super Bowl game picks (28:30).

In the latter portion of the show, Charles and Terez are joined by Hines Ward (33:00) and James Harrison (45:00) to talk about the Pittsburgh Steelers' dysfunction; Travis Kelce, who reflects on the Chiefs' loss in the AFC Championship and the differences between Alex Smith and Patrick Mahomes (50:45); and Panthers tight end Greg Olsen who reflects on losing Super Bowl 50 and the recent changes on the roster and in the ownership of the Panthers organization (59:30).
