Terez Paylor & Charles Robinson open the podcast this week discussing the state of a handful of rosters as the NFL trade deadline fast approaches. With a reduced salary cap coming next year, we can expect a lot of teams to be sellers, but which teams will be buyers, like the Detroit Lions & Seattle Seahawks, who made defensive additions in Everson Griffen and Carlos Dunlap, respectively?Could the New England Patriots deal last year's Defensive Player of the Year, Stephon Gilmore? Will Super Bowl contenders like the Tennessee Titans & Green Bay Packers add that final piece as they plan to make deep playoff runs? Our experts spend the first half of the episode getting you primed for next week's big deadline.Later, they preview the three Week 8 matchups they're looking forward to most: The game of the weekend is the surely Pittsburgh Steelers traveling to face the division rival Baltimore Ravens. Not only will this game have playoff seeding ramifications, but how could this game affect the trade deadline as well? (25:05)We'll get our first look at this year's fifth overall pick, Tua Tagovailoa as the Los Angeles Rams travel east to take on the Miami Dolphins. Will Aaron Donald torture the rookie for four quarters or will the lack of tape on Tua play to the Dolphins advantage? (31:40)The NFC West is absolutely crazy when the worst team is the 4-3 San Francisco 49ers. They travel to the Seattle Seahawks coming off their first loss of the season to Arizona. If San Francisco gets the win, Terez & Charles explain how the division will turn into a bloodbath. (34:30)Finally, the guys close out the show answering listener questions about the safety of Minnesota Vikings head coach Mike Zimmer's job and Le'Veon Bell's chemistry in the Kansas City Chiefs locker room and more (38:00).Stay up to date with the latest NFL news and coverage from Yahoo Sports on Twitter @YahooSportsNFL.Follow Charles @CharlesRobinsonFollow Terez @TerezPaylorTag your questions for the guys on Twitter with #YahooNFLPodcastCheck out the rest of the Yahoo Sports Podcast family at https://apple.co/2Abi8jk or at yahoosports.com/podcasts See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information. 📢 Check out the Yahoo Sports podcast network or yahoosports.tv

Well, that didn’t take long. Less than two months into his first season with the franchise, Dallas Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy is already the target of scrutiny after reports his players have lost confidence in his coaching following an embarrassing 38-10 loss to the Arizona Cardinals on Monday night. Terez Paylor & Charles Robinson open the podcast marveling at how quickly McCarthy’s good will has faded and how this particular instance has echoes of his final days with the Green Bay Packers.Next, Terez & Charles discuss the Buffalo Bills’ loss on Monday to the Kansas City Chiefs. Was the early-season Josh Allen hype unfounded or did the Bills just get handled by a better team? Also, Terez explains why Clyde Edwards-Helaire & Le’Veon Bell are not competitors for the same share of snaps, but rather complementary pieces on Kansas City’s burgeoning run-game. (13:50)On Tuesday, the Miami Dolphins announced they would be benching QB Ryan Fitzpatrick in favor of rookie Tua Tagovailoa. The guys explain why it was time for Miami to get the show on the road after the early success of Tagovailoa’s fellow first-rounders Joe Burrow and Justin Herbert. (21:00)In a week, Antonio Brown’s eight-game suspension is due to conclude and the Seattle Seahawks have been deemed the favorites to land the troubled wideout.

(26:25)Speaking of COVID, the Las Vegas Raiders were forced to send all five of their starting offensive linemen home after contact tracing declared them potentially susceptible to COVID-19 after a single positive test on the team. Charles & Terez break down how this unfortunate situation will continue to rear its ugly head all season. Likewise, they discuss the possibility of the Super Bowl being pushed back as far as a month later than its typical early February date.
