Tim and John are joined by Andrew Clausen of Backheeled.com as the Fire battle back but settle for a draw in the last (scheduled) Soldier Field game of 2026. The trio talk the difference Griezmann has made for Orlando, both in this game and 2026, what that says about the Fire and Lewandowski moving forward.  After a bit of banter, Andrew then walks through his latest analysis for Backheeled breaking down the effectiveness of the top decision makers in MLS when targeting Designated Players.  He breaks down the methodology, some of the results and of course lets the guys know where Gregg falls in the pecking order.
Then focus shifted to the upcoming game against the Colorado Rapids and what could be in store for the Fire as they take on a side that has gotten some good results in 2026 despite serious ‘flux’.
Andrew breaks down the tactics of what Colorado wants to do while Tim and John discuss how the Fire may be able to take advantage of the structure (and maybe get a penalty off old friend Miguel Navarro).
