Summary
John explains why he’s ready to unequivocally call Trey Lance a bust, what he and Zach Wilson have in common, why he thinks Russell Wilson will continue to decline despite Sean Payton’s coaching, why he’s more optimistic than most about Jordan Love’s chance to succeed with the Packers, and why NFL front offices are combing through film of every meaningless preseason snap.
