Summary

Patrick Daugherty (@RotoPat) and Denny Carter break down all the latest NFL news, beginning with the Dolphins’ Monday night no-show in Pittsburgh. Is the Tua Tagovailoa era over, and just how “back” is Aaron Rodgers? Next, they assess the fallout from Patrick Mahomes’ knee injury and the future of his already-legendary career. They also talk about the Joe Burrow “situation” and Ricky Pearsall’s injury before previewing Thursday’s massive Rams/Seahawks tilt. Just how bad of a matchup is this for the quarterbacks, what will the Rams do without Davante Adams, and what can we glean from both backfield rotations?
