Summary

Rich comments on Kyler Murray scrubbing the Arizona Cardinals from his social media and ponders if that is an effective negotiating ploy if he’s looking for an early contract extension, and reacts to Tom Brady throwing the door for an NFL return wide open by saying “never say never” to a possible comeback just one week into his retirement. Hall of Fame running back Barry Sanders tells Rich that he used to secretly play pick-up basketball games when he was playing for the Detroit Lions and that he had no problem dunking despite being only 5’8”, says why he’ll feel some personal satisfaction if ex-Lion Matthew Stafford wins a Super Bowl ring, and reveals how much joy he took in making defenders angry with his ankle-breaking jukes. NBC Sports’ Al Michaels and Rich discuss his Cincinnati connection to the Rams-Bengals Super Bowl because of his past gig as the Reds play-by-play announcer, why he’d be surprised if Tom Brady comes out of retirement, and how he goes about preparing for Super Bowl Sunday.
