REShow: Dan Orlovsky - Hour 2 (01-17-22) Jan 17, 2022

Show notes

ESPN NFL Analyst Dan Orlovsky tells Rich why Buffalo Bills QB Josh Allen is the Shohei Ohtani of the NFL, why the blame for the Cowboys’ early playoff exit at the hands of the 49ers falls squarely on the shoulders of QB Dak Prescott and Mike McCarthy and why Dallas needs to move on from the head coach, why he has some doubts about Jalen Hurts long-term viability as the Philadelphia Eagles’ starting QB, why Tom Brady and the Buccaneers remain a dangerous team despite a plethora of key injuries, and why this year’s playoffs are a chance for Rams QB Matthew Stafford to re-shape his legacy and land a spot in the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

Rich drills down on Cowboys fan TJ to find out how he would fix the problems that ail Dallas as displayed in their Wild Card Round home loss to the 49ers.

In his Overreaction Monday segment Rich says if the Buffalo Bills had the most impressive win of Super Wild Card Weekend and if that was Bill Belichick’s worst playoff loss ever, if the Niners have full trust in Jimmy Garoppolo, if the Bengals are the scariest team left in the playoffs, if we’ll destined for a Chiefs vs Buccaneers Super Bowl rematch, and if we could do without the 7th team in the NFL playoffs given the blowouts suffered by the Eagles and Steelers.
