Summary

Rich weighs in on Philip Rivers’ remarkable return to the NFL after a 5-year retirement and what it says about the NFL’s ability to develop young QB’s to be ready to step in and start games. In ‘Overreaction Tuesday’ Rich weighs in on Aaron Rodgers’ & Mike Tomlin’s futures with the Pittsburgh Steelers, if the Josh Allen can finally take the Buffalo Bills to the Super Bowl now that Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs won’t be standing in their way, if the Jacksonville Jaguars or Houston Texans can reach the AFC Championship Game, if Philip Rivers’ return to the Indianapolis Colts might lure Las Vegas Raiders’ part-owner Tom Brady out of retirement, and if we’ve actually seen the last of John Cena in a WWE wrestling ring. Comedian Charlie Berens joins Rich in-studio to discuss his new ‘Neighborly’ YouTube special, his love for the Green Bay Packers, how he went from doing local TV news to being a stand-up comic. Rich reacts to Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel saying benching QB Tua Tagovailoa is not out of the question in the wake of Miami being eliminated from playoff contention.
