Summary

Jets fan Rich weighs in on team owner Woody Johnson’s very public criticism of QB Justin Fields in the wake of New York’s 0-7 start, weighs in on the still simmering Sean Payton-Russell Wilson beef that flared up this week with the Denver Broncos head coach’s postgame comments followed by the New York Giants QB clapping back in his weekly media session, and debates TJ if Jaxson Dart has been a “home run” for the G-Men this season. Rich explains why he 100% agrees with Michigan State head basketball coach Tom Izzo’s reaction to a 3-year G-League veteran signing on to play college hoops at Louisville, and reveals a new #1 team in his brand-new NFL Power Rankings heading into Week 8. The guys share Deion Sanders’ awe at seeing what Dodgers two-way star is capable of doing at the plate and on the mound. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
