The guys talk about the Super bowl atmosphere in Atlanta, and the Fan WAR ROOM. DMac says John Elway is one of the greatest NFL players & his role in landing Peyton can’t be ignored. Also, DMac says John Elway’s job is hard to do, and John isn’t very good at it, and Al says the Broncos championship window is still open & the bad drafts with the Super Bowl appearances make John Elway’s time as GM cloudy.
Big Al talks about getting Mike Shanahan, and DMac wonders why the Broncos don’t hire Shanahan as part of their personnel. Al & DMac agree with all due respect to TC McCartney, this flies way over the offensive coordinator or QB coach.

Dickerson talks about being successful despite shaky quarterback play, and why the Rams are his team. Listen to the interview HERE!!!

Kevin Harlan joins the show to talk about how far the Nuggets can get in the playoffs this season, and compares Kobe’s work to art & LeBron’s work to an engine.
