About this episode
Rich kicks off the hour breaking down the outlook for all the quarterbacks selected in the 2021 NFL Draft and explains the myriad factors that could lead to unbridled success…or abject failure.
Bears Head Coach Matt Nagy tells Rich how close Chicago came to pulling off that blockbuster trade for Seahawks’ QB Russell Wilson and if they kicked the tires on an Aaron Rodgers deal, what the timeline is for getting newly-drafted QB Justin Fields on the field as the Bears’ starting QB and how he will use Patrick Mahomes’ rookie year as a template for his development, his reaction to the team’s now infamous Andy Dalton “QB1” tweet, and why he’s optimistic about his future in Chicago despite back-to-back 8-8 seasons.
Rich wraps up the hour reacting to Mike the Miz’s annual “Browns Will Win the Super Bowl” prediction but explains why this might actually be the season Cleveland finally does it.
