Matt Marchese kicks off Wednesday's edition of The FAN Checkdown alongside Adam Rank of NFL Network and The Sick Podcast. After offering some advice to panicking Bears fans following the team's lacklustre offensive display, Adam chats about his top rookie performers from Week 1, Jordan Mason's breakout in Christian McCaffrey's absence, the Jets' dismal run defence, the Browns' deep-rooted issues, and the most skilled teams in the league. Later on, theScore's Brenden Deeg shares more about the Falcons' predictable offensive schemes, the case to start Michael Penix Jr. behind centre, the Buccaneers' surprisingly strong start, and what we learned about the Eagles in Week 1 (31:12).
