Show Notes
Did anyone ask Cam Newton’s opinion on this conversation? Then why does he continue to feel the need to inject himself in the Fox Sports sex scandal discussion? He must be trying to stay relevant at this point. We have a news flash for you, Cam. First of all, you ain't that guy. Second of all, Whitlock and Steve Kim will be responding to your threats. Just not at the Super Bowl. The good news is that we are covered, since Cam isn’t very good at jumping on things at the Super Bowl anyway. A divisional-round NFL weekend is sure to bring a multitude of spectacular games. Headlining will be a showdown for the ages between our MVP front-runners, Lamar Jackson and Josh Allen. Who will come out on top to most likely face Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs in the AFC Championship game? Former Kansas State All-American QB Michael Bishop joins the show to discuss this new age of modern dual-threat quarterbacks. Wrapping up with everyone’s favorite first lady of "Fearless," Shemeka Michelle. A great show that you don’t want to miss.
