Hour 1 of The Drive kicks off with Phil and Will cross talking with Dover and Cecil. The guys discuss which loss in Denver sports was more disappointing between the Avalanche losing to the Stars or the Nuggets losing to a tanking Grizzlies. Phil and Will react to the Avs loss in depth and debate how the Avs lost a game in which they outplayed and outshot the Stars. We hear from Nathan MacKinnon and his thoughts on the Avs being unable to beat the Stars' goaltender, Jake Oettinger. Are the Nuggets still championship contenders after losing a game to a terrible Grizzlies team? What did the guys make of all of Nikola Jokic's turnovers? Is playing on a back-to-back enough of an excuse for the Nuggets? Will the Broncos be able to keep up their impressive record in one-score games? Will the Broncos continue to be one of the healthiest teams in the NFL in 2026?
