REShow: Maurice Jones Drew & Maxx Crosby - Hour 2 (01-18-22) Jan 18, 2022

Show notes

NFL Network Analyst Maurice Jones-Drew tells Rich why the Rams look as good right now as they have all season long, why the lack of a consistent run game is why Kliff Kingsbury-coached teams always fade at the end of seasons and why Arizona didn’t take advantage of Kyler Murray’s wide skill set, what to expect in the Rams vs Buccaneers rematch of their Week 3 showdown, and why the Jacksonville Jaguars need to hire a QB-friendly head coach to oversee the development of #1 overall pick Trevor Lawrence.

Rich makes the case for the Jags to hire former NFL QB and current Tampa Bay Buccaneers Offensive Coordinator Byron Leftwich as their next head coach.

Raiders Pro Bowl DE Maxx Crosby tells Rich how he’s handling the “heartbreaking” end Las Vegas’ season after overcoming so many obstacles this season, his reaction to Mike Mayock’s firing, why his vote is for the team to make interim head coach Rich Bisaccia the permanent HC, if the Raiders were going to settle for a tie against the Chargers in their regular season finale, if Joe Burrow’s controversial TD pass in their Wild Card matchup should have counted, and why he hopes his personal journey can inspire others facing similar challenges in their lives.

REShow: Eric Stonestreet - Hour 3 (01-17-22) Jan 17, 2022

Chiefs super fan Eric Stonestreet tells Rich that he predicted KC’s big man touchdown pass in their Wild Card Round blowout of the Pittsburgh Steelers, his concerns for facing a red-hot Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills, why he took to smuggling jalapenos into his suite at Arrowhead Stadium, and if he was openly rooting against his ‘Modern Family’ co-star and Pittsburgh fan Ed O’Neill.
