Monday night has been circled on many calendars throughout New England as the Houston Texans come to Gillette.

Bert Breer of the NFL Network joined Toucher & Rich to discuss Monday night’s matchup and the possible playoff picture in the AFC.

Last season Breer covered the NFL lockout like no other, so the guys got his thoughts on what the NHL is going through now that it seems talks are all but dead.

The guys then moved on to discuss the AFC and the teams that we could see in the post season.

“The way that I look at it you got the three teams that are in and that’s the Patriots, the Broncos and the Texans. Then you got four teams the Ravens, the Steelers, the Bengals and the Colts fighting for the last three spots.”

The guys talked about how the Texans are letting it be known that they view this as a very important game on Monday.

Plus, how do the Broncos playoff chances look now that they have a guy like Peyton Manning at quarterback?
