Hour 1: Steel City QB Issues + Daniel Jones Struggles, Mahomes Makin' Preseason Magic, Caitlin Clark Continues to Shine Aug 19, 2024

Show notes

In Hour 1…

[10:15] – Struggling Preseason QBs

Mike Tomlin's candid assessment of the Steelers' offensive performance against the Denver Broncos paints a picture of a unit still searching for consistency. The Steelers' offensive line struggled significantly, contributing to Russell Wilson's underwhelming performance. Daniel Jones had a rough outing in his second preseason game, completing 11 of 18 passes for 138 yards, 0 touchdowns, and 2 interceptions, resulting in a 45.4 passer rating.

[20:46] – 'Magical Mahomes' Strikes Again

Patrick Mahomes continues to amaze with his creative playmaking, as highlighted by a recent behind-the-back pass attempt during a game. Andy Reid’s reaction reflects a balance of support and caution, appreciating the completion but recognizing the risk. Mahomes’ flair for the unexpected keeps defenses on their toes, but Gojo and Golic try to determine how much longer can he continue to pull off these jaw-dropping plays.

[25:08] – Raiders Name Minshew their Starting QB

Gardner Minshew has been named the starting quarterback for the Raiders' 2024 season opener, edging out rookie Aidan O’Connell. Minshew’s preseason performance against the Cowboys wasn’t stellar—10 of 21 for 95 yards and a 60.6 passer rating—but it was enough to secure the job. Despite the competition, the Raiders' coaching staff believes Minshew offers the best chance for a strong start.

[30:33] – Caitlin Clark Breakin' All The Records

Caitlin Clark continues to set records in her rookie season, breaking the single-season rookie assist mark and the Fever’s rookie 3-point record. Her performance has sparked excitement among fans, with social media buzzing about her impact.

Las Vegas Aces F A’ja Wilson had 34 points and 13 rebounds, breaking her own record for games with at least 20 points and 10 rebounds. Bears Punter Tory Taylor averaged 50 yards on 3 punts, with a long of 57 yards and one downed inside the 20. Adam Schefter beat Rich Eisen in the 40-yard dash.

Hour 2: Biggest Training Camp QB Battles, All Bets are off: Notre Dame Swimming, Patriots Preseason Woes + New John Madden Biopic Aug 16, 2024

Show notes

In Hour 2…

[00:40] – Preseason Week 2 Watch List

With both Russell Wilson and Daniel Jones set to make their preseason debuts this weekend, the spotlight is on which quarterback will be more relieved to get back on the field. For Wilson, who is dealing with a calf injury, this game against the Buffalo Bills might be a crucial step to shake off the rust and regain his rhythm in Pittsburgh's offense. For Jones, this game is about proving his health and showing that he can still be the leader of the Giants’ offense.

[21:05] – Notre Dame Men's Swimming Team Suspended

Notre Dame decided to suspend its men's swimming program for at least a year following a review that uncovered violations of NCAA rules. The team’s internal wagering, where athletes bet on their own or teammates' performances, and the presence of a derogatory group chat, reveal a significant culture problem within the program. This suspension not only serves as a punishment but also as a wake-up call about the importance of maintaining integrity and respect within college sports.

[30:14] – Phil Perry on the Patriots Preseason

Gojo, Golic, and Phil dive into the Patriots' preseason so far, starting with the recent 14-13 loss to the Eagles. While the scoreline might not mean much, there were certainly some takeaways, especially concerning the quarterback situation. Drake Maye had an interesting outing, going 6-for-11 with 62 total yards and a rushing touchdown.

[40:41] – This, That and The Third

Mike Trout’s heartwarming moment of pulling his own 2009 Bowman Chrome Draft card while searching with his son adds a personal and emotional layer to the world of sports memorabilia. Nicolas Cage taking on the role of John Madden in an upcoming biopic directed by David O. Russell. The announcement that "Outer Banks" season 4 is set to be released this fall has Golic buzzing with anticipation.

Hour 1: Positive Contract Vibes for Dak, Weaponless Mahomes, NBA Schedule Release Recap + NFL QB Battles Aug 16, 2024

Show notes

In Hour 1…

[04:35] – Contract discussions looking positive for Dak Prescott

With Dak Prescott expressing optimism about his contract situation, saying, "A lot of good things are going on," there’s a sense that if the Cowboys manage to extend him and CeeDee Lamb before the season, it could ease some concerns about the team's stability. However, Senior has consistently voiced doubts about the team's ceiling, even if these deals get done. The reality is, despite the potential of these signings to boost team morale, the Cowboys haven't made significant improvements elsewhere.

[21:33] – Depleted Chiefs Weapons

Patrick Mahomes' comments on missing Marquise "Hollywood" Brown highlight the Kansas City Chiefs' concerns with their receiving corps. Brown's shoulder injury means the Chiefs will be without their most experienced wide receiver for a crucial part of the season. While Mahomes remains hopeful about the young receivers stepping up, the depth chart suggests that the Chiefs' offense could struggle early on, especially without Brown's veteran presence.

[34:36] – NBA Schedule Release

The NBA’s 2024-25 schedule is out, and there are plenty of matchups to look forward to. The Christmas Day lineup is packed with exciting games, including the Lakers vs. Warriors and the Nuggets vs. Suns. Notably, the Knicks and Sixers have higher title odds than the Nuggets and Timberwolves, which might surprise some fans.

[41:53] – MLB Considering Six-Inning Minimum for Starting Pitchers

MLB's proposed rule to require starting pitchers to go a minimum of six innings could bring significant changes to the game. The league aims to increase action, restore the prominence of starting pitchers, and reduce injuries. Exceptions would include pitch count limits, runs allowed, or injury, with a potential consequence for teams pulling pitchers early being the loss of the designated hitter (DH). This rule would force teams to rethink their pitching strategies, potentially incentivizing them to develop starters who can go deeper into games.
