The Drive with DMac & Troy Renck LIVE IN STUDIO!!!
Troy notices the Avs have it going in the right direction now, and DMac issues a ski challenge to Stokley & Zach. Also, Jim Boeheim’s accident & if Zion Williamson is doing Duke a favor after his shoe blows out 30 seconds into the Tar Heels game.
In the Big 3, Dmac asks Troy if Zion should come back & play for Duke this season, and Troy talks about Terrell Davis & the new wave of CBD to deal with pain. Also, DMac says the Broncos are a team that expects to win now, and Case Keenum was shocked.
Troy says Keenum would be naïve to say that he was shocked about the move for Joe Flacco, and DMac plays back audio of Keenum from a podcast talking about his conversation with John Elway. The guys agree Case didn’t understand the magnitude of working with John Elway.
DMac says Case Keenum seemed arrogant & uninspiring during his time in Denver, and Kyler Murray’s Gatorade tour was a bad idea. DMac says Peyton Manning & Jim Kelly have the fire necessary to be a successful NFL quarterback, and the meltdown in Pittsburgh has been fun to watch. DMac notes that Steelers GM Kevin Colbert backs Ben Roethlisberger, and Troy Renck says it’s awful to see & the Steelers run is now over, including Mike Tomlin being fired at the end of the season.
DMac says Joe Flacco didn’t have a choice in coming to Denver, and is wondering if playing for the Broncos is even best for him. DMac mentions Flacco’s family, and what a move across the country might do to the dynamics.
The guys talk about the trade process for Flacco, and if he is shell-shocked right now as he goes through the motions. DMac remembers working at another radio station & not giving his full effort.
DMac & Troy talk about Domata Peko, and his time coming to an end in Denver. Troy says the Broncos may take a wait-and-see approach with Emmanuel Sanders, even after they pick up his option for 2019. Also, DMac says Zion Williamson says Zion Williamson’s shoe blowing out is a bad day for NIKE.
DMac notes the Broncos that will likely be gone next season, and Troy mentions the new coaching staff in Denver. Troy says Ty Sambrailo simply wasn’t ready for his opportunity in Denver, and it’s all about timing in the NFL.
