Nate Tice & Charles McDonald join forces to preview the three biggest games of NFL Week 18. Nate & Charles get Lost in the Sauce on the three games with major playoff implications, starting with whether Baker Mayfield & the Tampa Bay Buccaneers can overcome their recent struggles to win the NFC South and beat the Carolina Panthers (with some help from the New Orleans Saints). Next, the duo cover the Seattle Seahawks & San Francisco 49ers battling it out for the 1-seed and the NFC West title. Can the Seahawks defense slow down a red-hot Brock Purdy? Nate & Charles close it out with the Sunday night battle for the AFC North with the Pittsburgh Steelers vs. Baltimore Ravens and which veteran quarterback can carry their team to the playoffs.
