Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Can Micah Parsons Still Win DPOY? Packers Preview ft. G-Stack & Austin Mock | Presented by FanDuel
Q: You will never see Micah Parsons 80 to 1 for defensive player of the year. So I guess my question to you is this. Can he make up the ground if he misses the minimum of six games?
It's a tough bet but not impossible. The key would be the defense performing very poorly early so the narrative shifts toward his return and impact, combined with keeping pace on counting stats after he returns. If the defense can stabilize and they win enough games, there's a path, but the window is narrow and depends on team performance as much as personal stats.
Are the Chiefs Undervalued? Chiefs Preview ft. G-Stack & Austin Mock | Presented by FanDuel
Q: Do they tempt you in the 17 to 1 Super Bowl range?
There is a real chance if the defense gels and the offense remains potent; the price looks appealing relative to other contenders, especially with an easy start.
Are the Chiefs Undervalued? Chiefs Preview ft. G-Stack & Austin Mock | Presented by FanDuel
Q: Do you look at anything in the win total?
Yes, I'm bang on with about 9.69 wins for the Chiefs, and I lean over slightly given Mahomes' health and the offense's potential, though I'm cautious about the division price.
NFL Mock Draft (Post-Dexter Lawrence Trade) featuring Austin Mock & George Tsilfidis | Presented by FanDuel
Q: Who are you taking for the Miami Dolphins?
The pick for Miami is Mansour Delay at 11, with a vision to add a cornerback option who fits the defense and can contribute alongside current pieces, depending on how the board shakes out.
Defensive Tackles Dominate this NFL Round 1 Mock Draft featuring Clev TA & G-Stack | Presented by FanDuel
Q: Who do you think the Jets will take at the second overall pick, and what factors are driving that choice?
Cleve explains he'd lean toward a safer, more conservative pick aligned with insider chatter, suggesting a receiver option could be plausible if it fits the board and trade dynamics, but the pick would likely favor a player who strengthens the trenches or adds a reliable offensive weapon depending on the build of the team.
