Mike Evans and Brandon Stokley with Mark Schlereth kick off the third hour looking forward to some more awesome Olympic Hockey. Mike has one big problem with the Olympic rules that he heatedly debates with Stink and Stoke. They look around the rest of the Olympic events like Curling and Big Air. Stink breaks down, Josh Jacobs, one of his favorite free agent RB’s and what he can bring to the Broncos in his Telestrator Tuesday (on a Thursday) film breakdown. Stink gives his take on the Vegas wise guys setting the Broncos’ over/under for wins a little low for a team that hosted the AFC Championship game.  

Mike Evans and Brandon Stokley with Mark Schlereth open the second hour in shock that Stink showed up for his job today before they get an update on Stokley’s secret chicken. They recap the great Olympic hockey games that took place yesterday. Mike asks former WR Brandon Stokley what exactly a WR coach does and whether the Broncos’ new WR coach can fix the drops. The Nuggets get back in action after a much-needed All-Star Break. Do you feel confident in their health with a 27-game sprint to the finish? The Morning Crew wrap up the second hour in 4 Down Territory where they discuss the NOLA coaching pipeline, the reality of the Mahomes restructure, a new coach that is DOA, and a peak offseason article from ESPN.
