The Tuck Rule: Remembering one of the NFL's most controversial moments with former Raiders QB Rich Gannon Apr 17, 2020

Show notes

It's known as the game that birthed the Patriots dynasty...But if a particular play had been upheld as a fumble instead of being ruled an incomplete pass, would New England still have went on to claim so many Super Bowls? It's an answer we'll never know and that's thanks to the 'Tuck Rule'. 18 years later, Rich Gannon, the quarterback on the opposite side of Tom Brady on that unforgettable snowy night in New England, helps us to remember one of the most infamous games in NFL history. Gannon details how good that Raiders team was, the emotions of that fateful play and what went wrong for Oakland in the aftermath.

If this game brings up a sense of sports nostalgia, then you're in luck. On Friday, April 17, at 10 pm ET, CBS Sports Network will be re-airing the 2001 Divisional Round matchup between the Raiders and Patriots, otherwise known as 'The Tuck Rule Game'. And over the course of the week, CBSSN will be re-airing 14 classic NFL games in total. Tune in on the CBS Sports App or CBSSports.com by logging in with your provider.

Cardinals QB Brett Hundley on world travels, Kyler Murray's growth and Mike McCarthy's system Apr 17, 2020

Show notes

'Arizona Cardinals quarterback' is the easy way to describe Brett Hundley, but he's way more than that. A world traveler and full-time photographer (on top of his day job), Hundley's interests go beyond football. In this conversation with Will Brinson, Hundley details his epic offseason trip that was cut short due to COVID-19. He also talks football, including the Cardinals addition of DeAndre Hopkins, Kliff Kingsbury's offense and the growth of Kyler Murray. Brett also discusses the difficulty of learning Mike McCarthy's system (from his time with the Packers) and why a limited offseason could pose problems for the Cowboys.

Trent Green recalls Chiefs 2019 run, 'Greatest Show on Turf' Rams, Brady vs. Manning duels & more (Football 4/16) Apr 16, 2020

Show notes

We miss football. That's typically the case in April, but especially true now. Join us for a special episode of the Pick Six podcast featuring former NFL QB Trent Green, as we revisit and re-live some memorable match-ups in NFL history and the players that defined those games. First, some games more recent in our mind including Baltimore-Cleveland from Week 4 of 2019, which marked Baltimore's last regular season loss (6:45). Next, a trip all the way back...to January...for the Chiefs' epic comebacks against both the Texans and Titans, on their way to Super Bowl 54 (11:45). How about those epic Brady vs. Manning battles as the Patriots faced off against the Colts in the 2004 and 2007 AFC Championship Games (20:00)? Trent was a contemporary of those two, but claims even as a competitor, those two dueling was must-watch TV.

If those games bring up a sense of sports nostalgia, then you're in luck. Over the next week, CBS Sports Network will be re-airing all of the above games and more. Tune in for Classic NFL Games on the CBS Sports App or CBSSports.com by logging in with your provider.

And before we let Trent go, we had to ask about 'The Greatest Show on Turf' St. Louis Rams that he was a part of (29:00). Why didn't the dynasty work out? What were his emotions being on the sideline during a Super Bowl victory? Many memories are shared during this trip down memory lane.
