Summary

The crew reacts live to breaking news that the Jets have traded Justin Fields to the Chiefs, debating what Kansas City sees in him, what New York got back, and whether Fields or Russell Wilson would be the better insurance policy behind Patrick Mahomes. From there, the conversation shifts into a bigger debate about coaching, quarterback upside, and what this move says about both franchises. They also dive into Aaron Judge’s comments about the electric World Baseball Classic atmosphere, pushing back on criticism and arguing that fans twisted his words. Along the way, they compare WBC intensity to the World Series, break down why international baseball keeps growing in popularity, touch on NCAA tournament news, and mix in the kind of sharp sports-radio banter and caller-driven chaos that keeps the whole episode moving.

Russell Wilson. It would, but

1:22.2

Russ, I don't know.

1:25.2

I just feel like Russ is done.

1:26.8
