0:00 - Right after Monday Night Football, the Broncos conversation focused on the defense and their atrocious tackling. As the week progressed, we shifted our focus to the offense and Bo Nix. How can they get right against the Jaguars this weekend?

14:16 - Yesterday, Bo Nix said "you never play as bad as you think, and you never play as good as you think." Therefore, the Monday Night Football loss wasn't as bad as it seemed. Bo said they found some positive takeaways when they watched the tape. Really?? We're pretty sure that loss was JUST as bad as it looked, if not worse.

32:10 - CU is on the road at Northwestern. CSU is hosting #11 BYU. Can both schools reach 3-0 on the season? Can CSU pull off the upset of all upsets?

0:00 - Cowherd (cow)heard everything we said about him yesterday. Turns out, he's not flip-flopping on Bo Nix. He's just following the clues he's getting. Brett says there's nothing wrong with changing your mind. But how, why, and WHEN you change your mind is what matters. 

15:10 - Who's trending up? Who's already headed down hill? It's our first weekly edition of NFL STOCK UP - STOCK DOWN!

31:55 - Give Brett credit where credit is due: he's VERY self aware. There's someone in sports who might be the least self-aware person on the planet.

0:00 - Colin Cowherd had some HARSH words about Bo Nix yesterday on his show. Come ON man! It's ONE. GAME. For the love of God, everyone please calm down!

14:19 - We do it every week - how are things looking on the college gridiron? It's time for COLLEGE FOOTBALL STOCK UP - STOCK DOWN!

30:49 - Turns out, Colin Cowherd is an expert at flip-flopping on how he feels about Bo Nix. Let's sift back through the fossil record...what has he said in the recent past?

0:00 - Well that was no fun at all. The Broncos looked helpless, hopeless, and hapless against the Chiefs last night on Monday Night Football. Vic wasn't kidding. Arrowhead is a house of horrors for this team. 
So what went wrong? Where do we even begin? Today will be a full-on Broncos autopsy.

14:47 - We spent an entire summer talking about Payton's Precious Playcalling, and how he handed the keys over to Davis Webb. How did Webb look in his playcalling debut? Was Sean Payton involved at all? 

32:08 - The Broncos couldn't tackle anyone yesterday! Fundamentals, boys! It's tough to play football when you can't TACKLE YOUR OPPONENT.

0:00 - Week 1 of the NFL was pure cinema. Better than advertised. But one big takeaway we had: what the hell is a forward pass? First the NFL didn't know what a catch is, now they don't know what a forward pass is? Come on, man.

15:07 - It's been MONTHS AND MONTHS of speculation, but now let's get down to brass tacks: what can we expect from Broncos @ Chiefs tonight?

31:38 - The Deshaun Watson Experiment lasted about 1 snap in Cleveland. That offense looked so bland and uninspired yesterday. Is anyone on that team behind him? Does Deshaun have anyone's support at all??
Speaking of weird QB situations, how bout them Vikings? If Kevin O'Connell can dust off Carson Wentz and make him look like the MVP candidate he once was, then it begs the question...how BAD is JJ McCarthy??

0:00 - Maybe the Rams should've gotten some sleep after all. They looked sluggish yesterday in their clash with the 49ers in Melbourne. Was the game a success? Should the NFL put another regular season divisional matchup game in Australia again?

14:19 - We're slowly but surely inching closer to the first Broncos game of the regular season...but, unfortunately, we have to wait till Monday night. Sean Payton is (hopefully) inching closer to making peace with Davis Webb calling the plays on offense. But, Brett doesn't think Sean is quite there yet.

31:52 - Last weekend, there were lots of "cupcake" matchups in college football. This weekend, we're getting some better matchups. Which games will Brett have his eye on in Week 2?

0:00 - WEDNESDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL NEVER DISAPPOINTS. When the game was on the line, Drake Maye didn't show up. He threw 3 INTs in the 4th quarter alone! You know who's the exact opposite of that? Bo Nix.

14:02 - Courtland Sutton said Bo Nix is like a mountain lion pacing back and forth at the zoo. Brett said he's more of a seasonal business like Spirit Halloween or a Christmas tree farm. What the heck are Courtland and Kaner talking about?

31:05 - The College Football Playoff is considering expansion AGAIN. How about a 24 team playoff? Would that produce a compelling postseason product?

0:00 - Coach Sanford started yesterday's edition of The Morning Sprint by taking Brett, Moser, and Vic to task. He chewed us out for a take we had about Broncos @ Chiefs Week 1 on Monday Night Football. But Kaner thinks Coach's rage is misplaced.

15:25 - Some places give you NFL power ranking. Other places divide teams into tiers. But nobody, and I mean NOBODY, gives you both at the same time. Except for us. It's time for Brett Kane's annual NFL POWER RANKINGS WITH TIERS!

35:06 - The MAC finally released a statement on behalf of Western Michigan. They're encouraging the NCAA to do the right thing and retroactively overturn the results of the Michigan game. The clock review was flawed, so the game should officially go down as a 12-7 Western Michigan win. We appreciate the sentiment, but the NCAA would never do that in a million years.

0:00 - What an ELECTRIC Week 1 of college football! My goodness. CSU looked dominant in their win over Wyoming. Michigan lost their game, found an extra second on the clock, then won on a Hail Mary. Hope you watched it all go down, folks.

15:15 - The first full weekend of college football is in the books, which means it's time...for the return...of COLLEGE FOOTBALL STOCK UP - STOCK DOWN!

31:35 - Kyle Shanahan can't wrap his head around how time zones work. What day is it right now?
After that, DMac has high high hopes for the Broncos this season. And Brett completely agrees with his assessment.

0:00 - CU @ Georgia Tech was ugly, grimy, wet, sweaty, and dirty, and SOMEHOW the Buffs pulled off the last-minute win. A blocked FG walk-off win is about of thrilling as a finish as you'll find. How do we feel about these new-look Buffs?

14:45 - What did we learn about CU last night? Did they change your mind at all? Are they headed in the right direction?

31:28 - Berto went down a rabbit hole and found an ESPN writer who thinks that Sean Payton is conspiring against his own team by intentionally setting up Davis Webb to fail.
