Nick Wright, host of “First Things First” on FS1 joins Colin to talk NFL quarterbacks!

Colin argues that when you put Aaron Rodgers political/vaccine opinions aside, his FOOTBALL related decision making is bad for having chosen a less talented team in the Jets (3:30) and compare his decision making to that of other star QB’s that changed teams late in their career (13:30).

They debate whether Jordan Love could become a top 2-3 quarterback in the NFC in 2024 (16:00) and discuss the importance of young quarterbacks like C.J. Stroud landing with the right team and coach (24:30).

They also talk about how fans with rigid thinking delude themselves into thinking thinking Lamar Jackson ISN’T a great quarterback (31:00) and that Tua IS a great quarterback.
