Rich kicks off the hour breaking down the blockbuster Russell Westbrook-for-John Wall NBA trade, and what Anthony Davis’ 5-year/$195M contract with the Lakers means for LeBron’s legacy when it’s all said and done. (2:06). Rich then recaps the rare Wednesday NFL game between the Steelers and Ravens and the sloppiness by coaches, players and refs. (14:11). The MMQB’s Albert Breer and Rich discuss how Mike Tomlin and the Steelers handled the frustration of having their schedule re-jiggered multiple times, the impact of losing Bud Dupree to an ACL injury on Pittsburgh’s defense, how the NFL decides whether to play or postpone covid-impacted games, when we’ll see Drew Brees back at QB for the Saints, if the Texans’ and Falcons’ interim head coaches have a shot to land the permanent job, and Ohio State’s chances to play for a Big Ten and national title and the ‘Michigan-is-Ducking-OSU’ conspiracy theory. (23:51). Rich wraps up the hour urging the NCAA to “do something radical” and expand the College Football Playoff. (45:52).   Thank you to today's sponsor: Microsoft Teams = Now there are more ways to be a Team. Learn more at Microsoft.com/teams
