Ben & Chris Talk Sports

In a surprising move, the New York Jets released star running back Le'Veon Bell Tuesday night. Bell spent a very interesting year and a half in New York after signing a huge contract with the Jets before the 2019 season. What does the future hold for the now free agent, and how did the Jets let it get to this point?

With Dak Prescott suffering a season ending injury in the Cowboys game against the Giants Sunday, what will the Cowboys look like going forward? Can Andy Dalton really take over and lead this team to a division title?

After an 0-5 start the Atlanta Falcons fired head coach Dan Quinn, but lets be honest, this is only the beginning of what should be major changes in ATL.

We take a look at the MLB League Championship Series, Bank or Tank for week 6, and more!!

It's finally happened, the Texans have had enough of Bill O'Brien running the team into the ground. On Monday it was announced that he would be fired as Head Coach and GM effective immediately. You can believe we have plenty more to say on the matter.

With the first round of the expanded 2020 MLB playoffs in the book we take a look at the eight teams remaining. And Chris has a special message for a certain member of the Astros that all of sudden cant stop talking.

Its hard to believe but we are already a quarter of the way through the NFL season, and we thought it would be a good time to take a closer look at certain things. More specifically which team is the worst, the most surprising, and the most underrated. Some of these you can probably guess. But I guarantee some will surprise you.

And we wrap up this weeks show with Bank or Tank for week 5.

We start of the show with a correction from Chris. He said that the Ravens would roll over the Chiefs, and just about the exact opposite of that happened. He takes a few minutes at the start of the show to clear the air.

With the shortened MLB regular season now over, the expanded MLB playoffs have now begun. We discuss matchups and results so far.

Week 3 in the NFL didn't see the massive number of injuries that week 2 did, but that doesn't mean there's nothing to discuss. We break down a few of the bigger stories from around the NFL.

And finally after a rough week 3 for both Ben & Chris when it came to Bank or Tank they look to improve their fortunes, and picks, for week 4.

After issuing a warning to coaches for not properly wearing masks on the sideline week 1, the NFL proved over the last 48 hours that they weren't screwing around. Handing out a total of $1.75 million in fines to 5 coaches and organizations who weren't complying. If you think thats extreme, wait til you hear what we think the punishment will be the next time it happens.

This past Sunday in the NFL was one of the worst for injuries that we can remember. Who are some of the players, and how will their absence hurt their teams.

With the MLB playoffs nearly upon us, we take a look at the teams that have locked up their spots so far.

And we give our picks for Bank or Tank week 3

With several months to plan, and only 2 weeks left to the 2020 MLB regular season, the League announced on Tuesday their plan for this year's playoffs. While the plan they approved makes sense, there are some things about the way MLB handled this that really bother us.

Week 1 in the NFL saw, as usual, a wide range of highs and lows. How did Tom Brady do in his Buccaneers debut? Are the Bears regretting their decision on Mitch Trubisky? How bad do the Eagles and Colts feel after losing to the Jaguars and Washington Football Team? We of course give our thoughts on all of these, and more.

And finally, we give you our picks for Bank or Tank week 2.

The MLB trade deadline has come and gone. While several teams made deadline deals, none made an impression the way the San Diego Padres did. They appeared to have gone all in trying to win it this season. Find out what we think of their moves, and chances going forward.

Within the last 48 hours the Jacksonville Jaguars have not only traded superstar Defensive End Yannick Ngakoue for far less value than they should have. But they also completely cut ties with former first round pick Leonard Fournette. The latter of which really came out of nowhere. What exactly are the Jags trying to accomplish, if they even know?

Bengals RB Joe Mixon and Lions LT Taylor Decker both recently signed lucrative new contract extensions. One could wonder if news of these contracts, as well as others over the last few weeks. Are the reason for the apparent discontent, and even alleged trade talks, between Alvin Kamara and the New Orleans Saints. We discuss all of the above and more in this episode.

After almost a year and 92 episodes, we are moving the show to a new day. Instead of our usual Tuesday and Friday morning you will now be able to hear us every Wednesday.

It feels like the MLB season just started. Because well, it did. The trade deadline is just days away and one might think with a shortened season and extra playoff spots to be had, it might be a quiet trade year. However we've identified 6 teams we feel will be deadline sellers and predict what moves they could make.

Just one season after signing a big free agent deal with the Baltimore Ravens, safety Ear Thomas was released on Monday. This comes shortly after he had an altercation with a team mate at practice and was sent home. It seems very unlikely that the Ravens chose to move on just because of this one incident. We discuss what else may have happened to lead to Earls early departure.

While the Tampa Bay rays are one of the best examples of how small market teams can be competitive with minimal resources, they have suffered an unusually high number of injuries to their pitching staff. This may just be bad luck, but we believe there is a far more manageable reason for the misfortune.

And after another disappointing end to a season, the Philadelphia 76ers "Process" seems more broken than ever, and in desperate need for an overhaul.

MLB continues its war against its players showing any personality at all. Recently it was Fernando Tatis Jr. attempting to actually enjoy the game, and now Trevor Bauer has made the mistake of once again having a personality. Why does baseball not know how to market controversy?

The New York Mets have had to postpone their next 2 series as a result of positive Covid 19 tests in the clubhouse. Why do we now believe baseball will finish the season no matter what?

And we conclude this episode with 2 different situations from the last few days. One is an example of cancel culture running amuck, the other is simple common decency. We won't spoil this one here, but promise this one is a little more opinionated then most segments.
