We are joined by the author herself to take a deeper dive into what she has gathered from this year's team ahead of opening day. Brock's 'Blue 88' covers some of the best and worst new rule changes in the NFL.

Salk was really excited about Shannon Drayer's latest article at SeattleSports.com about how this year's team bought in to the M's process and takes it a step further. We heard a lot of big baseball names setting some really high expectations for the Mariners (including Morosi saying they would win the division), so we decide to revisit yesterday's conversation with ESPN's Jeff Passan.
