  • Colin is a great story teller

    The man knows how to create interest and intrigue in topics most people would dismiss, unless you’re a true sports fan..but WHY does he settle for a Jack-in-the-box sidekick, when there have to be better options he could work with??

  • McIntyre ruins it.

    I have listened to Colin for years and I always loved the show. However, Joy Taylor and Jason McIntyre have been complete misses. I still listen occasionally, but getting through 3 hours rarely happens.

Q: Is the Combine important for quarterbacks like Mendoza?
The Combine doesn't matter for quarterbacks, especially for someone like Mendoza who is already at the top of his class.
THE HERD - Hour 3 - Live from the NFL Combine
Q: What do you think about Fernando Mendoza's journey?
He was initially underestimated as a two-star recruit and has shown significant growth and resilience throughout his career.
What's Wright - Nuggets CRUSH Celtics, Tatum to the RESCUE? Luka-LeBron FAILING + Combine HEADLINES | Nick Wright
Q: How do you feel about the Chiefs potentially going after a running back with a high draft pick?
I'd like an edge rusher at number nine, but I wouldn't hate Jeremiyah Love if he fits the need and roster construction.
What’s Wright - Best Of - Nick Wright REACTS to Seahawks-Patriots Super Bowl LX, Drake Maye STRUGGLES, Darnold CLEANSES GHOSTS
Q: What do you think's easier? Finding the next Patrick Mahomes or building a super defense?
It's probably easier to find the next Mahomes, but you need to build a great roster without hamstringing yourself with a mediocre quarterback.
What’s Wright - Best Of - Nick Wright REACTS to Seahawks-Patriots Super Bowl LX, Drake Maye STRUGGLES, Darnold CLEANSES GHOSTS
Q: Has there been any other athlete that you can compare to Darnold's pathway? Or is he like a one of one?
Jim Plunkett is a good comparison; he was the number one overall pick who won two Super Bowls after initially failing with other teams.
