  • Buyers Remorse on Daniel Jones? The Jets love Zach Wilson now? Michael Robinson has a question for Dallas HC Mike McCarthy

    Today on NFL Total Access The Podcast I am joined by Super Bowl Champion Michael Robinson. We start by diving into the Daniel Jones debate. Are the critics right, or are they just self-righteous? Michael Robinson shares his perspective on whether the New York Giants should have any buyer's remorse about their quarterback. But here's the twist: Mike Rob argues that the Giants' mistake wasn't paying Daniel Jones; it was not paying Saquon Barkley. Find out why he thinks Barkley is the key to the Giants' success.

    Next up, we tackle the New York Jets and the sudden love for Zach Wilson. Is Robert Saleh's vote of confidence for the young quarterback warranted? With a challenging matchup against the Dallas Cowboys' defense, we explore the perfect game plan for Zach Wilson as he faces Micah Parsons and the Cowboys in Dallas. And don't miss why all eyes should be on Nathaniel Hackett, not just Zach Wilson.

    But that's not all. Michael Robinson has a burning question for the new Dallas Cowboys play-caller and head coach, Mike McCarthy. He wants to know, "If last season was so bad..." You won't want to miss this intriguing discussion.

  • Nate Burleson: Megatron vs. Moss, CBS Mornings swag, the Nate B. freestyle

    On the latest NFL Players: Second Acts episode with Peanut Tillman and Roman Harper, 11-year NFL receiver Nate Burleson blazes the Second Acts podcast mic.

  • What Now for the New York Jets? What’s the NY Jets game plan WITHOUT Rodgers? The biggest stories and surprises from Week 1

    Welcome to NFL Total Access The Podcast, I am your host, NFL Network Senior Writer Andrew Lavey. To help me breakdown the latest NFL headlines and Week 1 matchups I am joined be Super Bowl Champion David Carr.

    We kick things off by addressing the burning questions surrounding the New York Jets. What's next for Aaron Rodgers, and has he taken his last snap in the NFL? Could he transition into a QB coaching role? And what's the prognosis for the Jets without Rodgers in the lineup? We explore the possibilities and debate whether acquiring a veteran QB while keeping Zach Wilson in a backup role is the right move.

    We shift our focus to Week 1 of the NFL season. Did the New York Giants need to burn the game film or can they learn from it? Are the Miami Dolphins emerging as the team to beat in the AFC East? We also ponder the contrasting fortunes of the Giants and the Chargers. Plus, we discuss the emotional state of Browns fans and the struggles of Bengals fans.

    What's the bigger Week 1 surprise: the Rams' domination of Seattle or Jordan Love's takeover in Chicago? And finally, we analyze the performances of young quarterbacks Bryce Young, CJ Stroud, and Anthony Richardson, with David Carr. David also will be sharing his scouting report on his brother Derek Carr's first game for the Saints.

    Join us for this insightful and engaging conversation with David Carr as we dissect the NFL's latest developments and Week 1 action.
