Summary
A room filled with some heroes - Dan Hanzus, Marc Sessler, and Gregg Rosenthal react to Week 2 of the preseason, starting with Dan’s top three questions that matter when it comes to evaluating preseason action (1:48). Baker Mayfield was named the starting quarterback in Carolina (9:30), Kenny Pickett had another good game and could be in the running to start Week 1 for Pittsburgh (17:26), Antonio Gibson’s RB1 role with the Commanders is in jeopardy (20:26), and a handful of rookies are dealing with significant injuries (24:28). After the break, the Flashpoint Focus series returns with Scott Reynolds of PewterReport.com as we turn our attention to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. We discuss Tom Brady’s return to practice (32:25), the vibes around the building (36:30), Julio’s anticipated role in the offense (38:07), the expected improvements to the run game this year (40:01), and potential pitfalls this Bucs team could encounter (42:15) before we sign off with a tease for Wednesday’s show (52:22).
