    INSTANT REACTION: Seahawks Dominate Patriots To Win The Super Bowl, Sam Darnold’s Incredible Career Arc

    Colin’s joined by John Middlekauff, host of “3 and Out” to react to the Seahawks dominating win over the Patriots in the Super Bowl. They start with Seattle’s dominating defense pressuring Drake Maye all night and the Patriots offensive line being overwhelmed (2:45) . Colin highlights the arc of Sam Darnold’s career and that with the right coaching he was an effective game manager that didn’t make a big mistake in the biggest moment (5:15).  They point to New England’s defense getting tired in the second half due to their offense being unable to stay on the field and the dam finally breaking… but Colin argues that New England is still in a “rebuild” stage despite being in the Super BowL (9:30). They evaluate a Seahawks roster that doesn’t have an apparent “need” and debate what pieces they should look to add to their Super Bowl winning roster (14:15), and Colin argues there haven’t been many better stories in NFL history than Sam Darnold (23:15). Colin says Drake Maye has nothing to hang his head about and lost to one of the best teams in the last decade… but that Drake wasn’t ready for this moment (31:30). They look ahead to the 2026 season and predict which teams will be back in postseason contention & who won’t, and they agree the Seahawks GM John Schneider has locked up his case for the Hall of Fame (37:45).  Finally, Colin believes the ups and downs of Sam Darnold’s career will lead him to continue taking team friendly deals in a favorable situation (53:00), and they agree the Seahawks sale price just went up by a billion dollars (1:00:30).  (Timestamps may vary based on advertisements.)

  3. Super Bowl Week Preview: Darnold From Bust To Top Ten QB, Seahawks Valuation Too Low, Vikings Fire GM, Kubiak Will Succeed

    Super Bowl Week Preview: Darnold From Bust To Top Ten QB, Seahawks Valuation Too Low, Vikings Fire GM, Kubiak Will Succeed

    Colin’s joined by John Middlekauff, host of “3 and Out” to break down the  top NFL headlines. They start with Vikings GM Kwesi Adofo-Mensah being fired and point to animosity behind the scenes in Minnesota with the coaches and some bad draft choices…especially JJ McCarthy as the reasons why (3:30). Colin argues that while the organization has supported McCarthy publicly, behind the scenes there’s a serious lack of confidence in him (9:30) and Kwesi took too much time away during training camp in a business where grinding is paramount (14:00). They discuss which of the new coaching hires will be viewed as a success in 5 years: Colin points to Raiders new head coach Klint Kubiak as a hit and John agrees and argues that if needed, the Raiders could trade Maxx Crosby for a haul that could help reset the franchise (22:30). Colin tries to identify other quarterbacks that were labeled “busts”, then end up ascending to a convincing top 7-8 quarterback in the league and they debate where to rank Darnold in the QB hierarchy if he wins a Super Bowl (28:30). Colin argues that football has changed, and that having a quarterback with “horsepower” is worth putting up with more mistakes and interceptions (35:00). Finally, John points out the $10 billion dollar sale price of the Lakers and they discuss why the floated 6-8 billion dollar estimated price for the Seahawks seems way too low for a team in the Super Bowl and set up for long term success (45:00).

They debate where to rank Sam Darnold in the quarterback hierarchy if he wins the Super Bowl, and why Darnold’s redemption arc should provide hope for other young quarterbacks who landed in bad situations as rookies (19:30).  Then, he’s joined by John Middlekauff, host of “3 and Out”. They break down the Patriots win in a blizzard over the Broncos (29:45) and Colin argues that the Broncos would have won with Bo Nix.  Finally, they break down the NFL coaching carousel & Mike McCarthy’s hire by the Steelers (41:15).

    Colin is joined by Danny Parkins, host of “First Things First” on FS1. They start with Bill Belichick not making the Hall of Fame on the first ballot and Colin recaps all the cheating scandals the Patriots were involved in, and that the people claiming his first year exclusion is outrageous… are suffering from collective amnesia (3:00). They debate whether his exclusion is outrageous as the national chatter would have you believe, how much credit Robert Kraft deserves for the Pats success (12:00), and why Tom Brady is probably still underrated despite his accolades (19:15). They discuss Mike McCarthy being hired by the Steelers and Colin argues that while the move wasn’t inspiring, it was safe… and that’s ok (31:00). Danny believes the time is now for Pittsburgh to clean house and try to secure a blue chip quarterback prospect, and Colin offers his theory as to why the Steelers refuse to bottom out (37:15).  They discuss the Lakers win over the Bulls in a game where LeBron James at 41 years old was still the best player on the floor in the first half & why it will be hard for him to hang it up (42:45).  They preview the Super Bowl & Colin predicts the young Seahawks roster could play tight under the bright lights and that the Pats experience might lead to him picking them to win, but Danny argues the Pats are a bit lucky to be there & not as dominant as Seattle (51:30). They debate where to rank Sam Darnold in the quarterback hierarchy if he wins the Super Bowl, and why Darnold’s redemption arc should provide hope for other young quarterbacks who landed in bad situations as rookies (58:00).  Finally, Colin recaps the experience of his first winter in Chicago and why living in a cold city leads to more passionate sports fanbases (1:04:30).  (Timestamps may vary based on advertisements.)

    Darnold Is Super Bowl Bound, Sean Payton’s Huge Mistake, NFC Is The Superior Conference, Mike McCarthy Lands Steelers Job

    Colin is joined by John Middlekauff, host of “3 and Out” to break down the NFL conference championship games. They start with the Seahawks beating the Rams in a heavyweight fight style shootout and Colin highlights the special teams lapses by the Rams as the reasons Seattle won the game (2:00). They give huge credit to Sam Darnold for two outstanding back-to-back seasons resulting in a Super Bowl appearance and being the winningest quarterback in the league since he took over for the Vikings (8:45).  Colin argues that the NFC was the superior conference all year and points to the Rams roster that lost as evidence (28:45). They move to the Patriots beating the Broncos 10-7 in a blizzard and Colin argues the game was useless once the weather started (32:45). They agree that Sean Payton made a huge mistake not kicking a chip shot field goal in the first half to go up 10-0. Colin argues that if Bo Nix plays, Denver wins the game (41:00).   Finally, they discuss the hire of Mike McCarthy as the head coach of the Pittsburgh Steelers (47:00).
