Summary

Ahmed is back to talk football (and cricket?) with Chris. We react to the news and timing of Ziggy Ansah signing with the Seahawks (3:28). Simms reveals the sporting event (and movie) that makes him cry every time (6:18). Then the fans take control, as we dive into another Ask Me Anything mailbag. Why is Chris down on Jared Goff and the Rams (9:39)? Who are the Top 5 route runners in the NFL (17:14)? After Simms brags that he's never uncomfortable, a question makes him uncomfortable (21:31). Then Big Phil joins us to talk about the dumbest great QB of all-time (27:26), the two sophomore QBs poised to take a big step forward (34:40), and what the perfect pass rusher looks like (47:52).

No, I mean, who's not familiar with the 1981 underarm cricket incident?

0:18.0

Ah, okay, and yes, this is a football podcast. Chris Sims, I'm Budden. What up? My man, Ahmed Farid, is here. How are you doing everything good? I don't know if I said that right there. You got it. Okay, good. I'm still self-conscious about it, all right? For one. But this is a little thing we did. You can check this out on YouTube slash NBC Sports.

0:39.1

We did top controversies in sports in lieu of the Kentucky Derby last weekend.

0:44.6

And one of the top nine sports controversies in the history of sports was the underarmed cricket incident of 1981. And let me tell you, if you don't know a lot about this, then you're not a sports man. So we had some fun with that. I don't know how the hell that even made the list, but it made the list. You were not on board with that. But I'm telling you, if you go back and look at it, New Zealand, Australia, some guy bowled it underarm. Who underarmed it? Was it Australia?

1:11.0

Yeah.

1:46.8

It makes me think different of Australians altogether now, all because of that. How could they do that? You're underarm and don't let the team score. That's just not fair. You got to check it out. That's over on our YouTube account. Also, you have some throwing motions are on the YouTube account now. Doing stuff. The fans had asked because I did a little thing on social a few weeks ago about different quarterbacks, how they gripped the football. I didn't do Tom Brady, which was absolutely stupid of me, not to do Tom Brady. And people, of course, we're asking about that. So we got in. And if you go on YouTube, YouTube.com slash NBC Sports or even some of my social stuff, you'll see the Brady grip stuff.

1:50.6

But this is something I'm going to continue to try to do here throughout the off season.

1:52.3

There's not a lot of news and stuff.

2:02.1
