Summary

Birthday Boy Chris Simms and Liam McHugh plow through NFC win totals, predict where Jadeveon Clowney will wind up, and take a look at some of the top QBs to watch this college football season. (0:20) Turning 39 is ... something (6:25) Things have gotten bad between the Texans and Jadeveon Clowney. Simms explains why he ultimately thinks that the edge rusher will wind up with an NFC contender. (14:25) Jimmy G is in full CYA mode after a rocky preseason (18:45) We put Jon Gruden through the Simms BS translator to decipher what he really means behind his plea to take more deep shots (21:45) Jalen Ramsey is already talking about shadowing Tyreek Hill in Week 1 and we can't wait (33:00) NFC East over/unders: why the Cowboys are a fringe playoff team (39:00) NFC North over/unders: why the division favorites have an overrated offense (48:50) NFC South over/unders: why a trendy sleeper team has shown some bad signs (57:05) NFC West over/unders: why you should bet the under on most of the division (1:08:30) Don't forget how close Notre Dame was to Clemson during the 1st half last year, and the one stud player who will blow your mind (1:14:50) Are the Longhorns ready to return to a national power? (1:17:40) Simms breaks down Tua Tagovailoa, Justin Herbert, and Jake Fromm, and the best NFL QB prospect might surprise you (1:23:10) We assume Alabama & Clemson will be in the mix. And take Georgia out of the convo as well. What team are we getting behind to make a run at the playoff?
