The Drive with Big Al & DMac LIVE IN STUDIO! Big Al brings up Malik Jackson beefing with Von Miller, and DMac thinks the preseason is dumb & Training Camp 2018 should be starting today instead of in July. Big Al asks DMac who could have the better regular season record between the Jags & the Broncos, and the answer hurts his heart & his brain.
Big Al brings up Malik Jackson beefing with Von Miller, and DMac thinks the preseason is dumb & Training Camp 2018 should be starting today instead of in July. Big Al asks DMac who could have the better regular season record between the Jags & the Broncos, and the answer hurts his heart & his brain. DMac gets Big Al’s score prediction on the Broncos-Bears game on Saturday, and Al is loving the commercial with an old Emmanuel Sanders. Also, DMac throws out a trivia question about David Dahl’s Willy Wonka music & Al notices D-Wade’s picture of Gabby. The boys talk college football, and DMac points out the QB controversy at Georgia with Jake Fromm. Also, Al notices all of Andrew Luck’s tools & still wonders if Luck will go down as a bust in Indianapolis.
DMac notices Peyton Manning has been spending a lot of time out at Broncos practice, including this week, and Big Al says retirement can be boring. Also, what Peyton & Shaquem Griffin have to endure playing with bodies that no longer function the same way they used to. The guys agree computers have taken over the NFL Draft, as well as fantasy drafts, and auto-draft may be responsible for landing Bradley Chubb, Courtland Sutton and the best draft the Broncos have ever put together. The fellas talk about the first day of school, and Big Al says he’s done with Spring Break. More information comes out about OSU’s Zach Smith, and Big Al still thinks Urban Meyer is safe from losing his job as head coach. Also, DMac says there’s no reason the NY Jets would let go of Teddy Bridgewater & laughs at cold-blooded Broncos fans applauding Paxton’s last game. Big Al & DMac talk about their first days of college, and wonder about the pictures parents post & if any tears were shed dropping the kids off. DMac says everyone should just go to college for a week, and believe everybody can afford at least one semester. Also, the guys decide what it takes to be a good college recruiter.
Al wants DeShone Kizer after seeing him play in the preseason, and notes the value of QBs to teams that want draft picks. DMac points out the injuries to Isaiah Wynn & Nick Foles as reasons to not play your starters in the preseason, and Big Al says when he will be ready to move away from Case Keenum. Also, DMac argues with Al about how easy it would be to get Teddy Bridgewater or AJ McCarron. The boys take some calls on Chad Kelly or going out & getting a backup quarterback for the Broncos. Also, whether or not the Broncos will be playoff competitive this season. DMac & Big Sexy bring up the concept of MLB teams having an ‘opener’ that starts the first two innings of games before they go to their ‘starting’ pitcher. DMac plays with the idea, and says he doesn’t like traditional baseball.
