LISTEN TO HOUR ONE HERE!!!

Big Al talks about the devastating injury to Emmanuel Sanders, and DMac says it’s bad timing for Jordan Taylor to be on IR. DMac doesn’t expect Andre Holmes’ to replace Sanders’ production, and fears this injury could be career-ending. Also, DMac asks Big Al if Courtland Sutton is ready to be the No. 1 receiver.

In the Big 3, the guys talk about what losing Emmanuel Sanders will do to the team, and if drafting a QB in the back half of the first round is worth it. Big Al says the Broncos should get a ‘W’ against the 49ers & Raiders, and DMac notes Paul Goldschmidt is on the move to St. Louis. Also, Big Al says congratulations to Mel Tucker on becoming the new head coach of the CU Buffs.

Athletic Director at the University of Colorado Boulder Rick George joins the show to talk about why Mel Tucker was the right fit, and why the players will love him. George says Tucker will bring back pride & tradition, and DMac asks George what about Mike MacIntyre’s time at CU was unacceptable. Listen to the interview HERE!!!

 

LISTEN TO HOUR TWO HERE!!!

The guys talk about replacing Emmanuel Sanders with Andre Holmes, and what the Broncos will do to replace Sanders’ production. Big Al says Achilles injuries are unpredictable & sometime you can’t avoid them.

Cecil Lammey joins the show to talk fantasy football & what to do about backing up or handcuffing star running backs. DMac asks Cecil about the impact of Emmanuel Sanders’ injury, and Cecil says the impact is massive & may include Vance Joseph being fired. Listen to the interview HERE!!!

DMac says you never know when you’ll need your star players, and the loss of Emmanuel Sanders could be devastating. Big Al says it’s time for the young players to step up, and DaeSean Hamilton & Courtland Sutton need to catch the ball.

Al & DMac agree it’s about winning games, not completing passes, and compare Case Keenum to Kyle Orton & Tim Tebow. Al says nobody believed in Tebow long-term, and maybe Case Keenum just had a special year.

 

LISTEN TO HOUR THREE HERE!!!

Al says it’s time for the rest of the team to step it up, especially the Tight Ends. DMac asks Al how the Emmanuel Sanders injury complicates things, and Al says no receiver will know the playbook like Sanders did. DMac says George Kittle is the 49ers’ biggest playmaker, and Phillip Lindsay was named AFC Offensive Player of the Week.
