Podcast appearances and mentions of Jarrett Stidham

In hour 4 of The Drive, Zach and Phil react to the massive number of viewers Game 3 had in the NBA Finals and Zach points out how great of a place the NBA is in now with all the young talent in the league. Will we ever call Nikola Jokic the best player in the NBA again? Does Victor Wembanyama currently hold the title as best in the league at the age of only 22? How much of Jokic's lack of defense impact his ability to be the best player in the world? We react to the conflicting reports of Jaquan McMillian and the Broncos working towards a contract extension. Will McMillian get a fair shot at being the nickel corner again this season or will Jahdae Barron take over the position in his second season after being a first-round pick? We wrap up the show with DenverSports.com's Will Petersen joining the show to discuss if Mason Rudolph would be a better backup quarterback in Denver than Jarrett Stidham. 

For the second hour of Stokely and Evans with Mark Schlereth, Stoke sends out birthday wishes before he holds Stink accountable for ditching him. Mike asks a question: are the Avs and Nuggets close to title contention based on what we’ve seen from the NAB and Stanley Cup Finals so far? The guys have a serious discussion about how a locker room and team handle an incident like Jonathan Cooper’s alleged domestic violence case. They recap a bad weekend from the Rockies before they discuss RJ’s Harvey heading into year 2. Can the sophomore RB break out in his second year? They wonder if Jarrett Stidham needs to look over his shoulder for Sam Ehlinger. They wrap up the second hour previewing tonight’s Game 3 in the NBA Finals.

In hour 2 of The Drive, Zach and Phil take a deep dive into the Broncos OTA practice they were in attendance for today. How involved or not involved was Sean Payton as his role has changed to no longer being the play-caller? What did the guys make of Jaylen Waddle's first public practice with the Broncos? Is there a specific vision for how Waddle fits into this offense? We hear from Sean Payton on his initial thoughts on Jonah Coleman. Will Coleman's short and stout body frame translate well to the NFL? Is there a competition for the backup quarterback position, or is it Jarrett Stidham's job to lose? Today's "Three Count" includes the reports that the Broncos will not have a joint practice this preseason, the Knicks going into San Antonio and stealing Game 1, and discussing the Nuggets' paths forward to being competitive again. We break down Jonah Ellis' time at inside linebacker as the Broncos potentially change his position on the defense. 

Hour 1 of The Drive kicks off with Zach and Phil cross-talking with Dover and Jake. The guys do a full deep dive into the Western Conference Finals and preview Game 7 tomorrow night. Is the Thunder's championship window already closing with many contributors being free agents heading into the offseason? Zach and Phil react to the lack of news on Jared Bednar and debate if the silence around the situation means Bednar will be returning to the Avalanche. Zach re-pitches the idea of the Broncos trading for Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson. How much would it cost the Broncos to bring in Richardson? Would Richardson be able to take work off Bo Nix's plate in running situations? Are the Broncos in a position to "rehab" Richardson, or do they need a win-now backup quarterback? Does Sean Payton still feel the same way about Jarrett Stidham after the AFC Championship? We react to a trade idea that involves the Nuggets sending out Aaron Gordon in return for Derrick Jones Jr. and a first-round pick. Could the Nuggets take a step back financially and competitively to reset the organization moving forward? 

In the first hour of Stokely and Evans with Mark Schlereth, Jared Bednar is still the head coach of the Avalanche and the guys wonder if this means he’s here to stay. Mike marvels at Shohei Ohtani’s performance against the Rockies last night. Are we witnessing the GOAT? The guys discuss how important Jarrett Stidham’s relationship with Bo is to the Broncos as Mike makes a crazy pitch for the Broncos’ backup. News is coming out about the severity of Cale Makar’s shoulder injury but is it any excuse for how the Avalanche lost in the Western Conference Finals? Mike and Stoke wrap up the first hour by losing a bet and talking about Bat Boy. 

In hour three of Stokely and Evans with Mark Schlereth, they put themselves in the role of the Avalanche front office and sort through the possible reasons why Jared Bednar is currently hanging onto his job and why the Avs could still let him go. Mike advocates for the Ball Arena teams to blow up their cores. They revel in the greatness of Shohei Ohtani. The former players take Mike to task about his take that Jarrett Stidham needs more live game reps. The Avalanche had “Cup or Bust” expectations heading into the season. Do the Broncos have “Super Bowl or Bust” expectations heading into the 2026 season?

In hour 2 of The Drive, Zach and Phil debate if the Broncos could be looking to add a quarterback in the NFL draft to backup Bo Nix, after they met with Athan Kaliakmanis from Rutgers. Has Nix's health been a concern for the guys? Could the Broncos trade their veteran backup QB in Jarrett Stidham to get a cheaper option? We pivot to the Nuggets and hear from Jamal Murray after his historic night. Could the Nuggets have a rematch with the Timberwolves in the first round of the playoffs? Today's "Three Count" includes Patrick Surtain telling Julian Edelman about the game Sean Payton got the team all oxygen tanks and previewing the Sweet Sixteen which kicks off tonight with four games.  We react to the Broncos using a top-30 visit with a running back from Washinton. Could the Broncos be looking to add more depth in the running back room? 

In hour 4 of The Drive, Zach and Phil take a deep dive into the top 5 potential trade candidates for the Broncos. Could we see a team interested in making Jarrett Stidham a starting quarterback? Should the Broncos trade Jonah Ellis to clear up the log-jam on defense? Could the Broncos trade Riley Moss or JaQuan McMillian to make room for Jahdae Barron to get more snaps? With the contract extension of Alex Palczewski, will the Broncos trade Ben Powers to save money against the cap? We react to multiple mock drafts in which the Broncos select a safety out of Toledo. Do the Broncos need to make a splashier pick and take someone that can make an immediate impact? We wrap up the show with DenverSports.com's Will Petersen joining the show to discuss the Avalanche almost closing on a trade to bring Kadri back to Denver.

We react to multiple mock drafts in which the Broncos select a safety out of Toledo. Do the Broncos need to make a splashier pick and take an offensive weapon?

Were the Colorado Rockies used as a confidence booster/slump buster for Team USA in the World Baseball Classic? Connery thinks so. Stefon Diggs was released by the New England Patriots - maybe because he (allegedly) strangles people. California State University, Bakersfield hired a basketball coach, who was also a pimp. Mike Evans of 104.3 The Fan (Denversports.com) said Gabe Landeskog is a giant disappointment. Was he right or wrong? And how does Peyton Manning fit into this conversation? Will the Denver Broncos trade away Jarrett Stidham? Apparently there's several teams that want him. And would the Broncos be fine with JK Dobbins as their running back, again?

Hour 1 of The Drive kicks off with Phil and Will Petersen cross talking with Dover and Cecil. The guys discuss the progress the Rockies have made this offseason and the backup quarterback situation with the Broncos. Phil and Will react to the Avalanche rolling as they beat Anaheim 5-1 last night in California. We speculate on what trade deadline deals the Avs could make and debate if it makes sense for them to bring back a familiar face in Kadri. We react to a report about the Broncos listening to offers on backup quarterback Jarrett Stidham. How much would it take in assets to move on from Stidham? Will makes the case why there are better backup quarterbacks on the market that could help the Broncos win important games if Nix were to miss any time. How close is Aaron Gordon to returning to the Nuggets lineup? Should the Nuggets hold back Gordon and Peyton Watson to make sure they are healthy for a playoff run? 

In hour 3 of The Drive, Phil and Will Petersen debate if Broncos should consider signing Stefon Diggs after the news that New England will release him next week. Would Diggs be a distraction in the Broncos locker room and worth the headache he can bring to teams? We react to a report about the Broncos listening to offers on backup quarterback Jarrett Stidham. How much would it take in assets to move on from Stidham? We react to the Avalanche rolling as they beat Anaheim 5-1 last night in California. We speculate on what trade deadline deals the Avs could make and debate if it makes sense for them to bring back a familiar face in Kadri. Will shares his take on why Cam Johnson needs to be out of the Nuggets playoff rotation. Should the Nuggets consider benching Johnson and taking him out of their top 10 players all together? Phil disagrees with Will and points to Johnson's shooting ability and how the Nuggets need him to stretch the floor. 

Bobby Bones and Matt Cassel dive right in with the reports that Bill Belichick will not be a first ballot Hall of Famer. Bobby explains why he understands the reasoning while Matt was with the Patriots through some of the controversies. Meanwhile, the Patriots are back in the Super Bowl and Matt talks about the angle that Mike Vrabel can bring to his team. Shedeur Sanders going to the Pro Bowl doesn't feel right. The Titans are building a nice support staff and it could signal a big turnaround for the team. Matt questions Bobby on the greatest plays in Super Bowl history. Bobby and Matt discuss the recent weather and their struggles through the storm. Placekicker Rodrigo Blankenship talks about his signature look and his journey to Georgia and the UFL. Rodrigo is also still looking for his shot in the NFL and explains how hard it is to prove yourself and keep a roster spot on a team. Matt asks about Rodrigo's social content and how he shows off his other interests. Bobby asks for Rodrigo's all-time favorite kick he's ever seen.

The Patriots and the Seahawks are the winners of the AFC and NFC Conference Championships this season and will meet in Santa Clara for Super Bowl LX. Chris and the fellas breakdown the action from Sunday's conference championships and determine why the chips fell where they did. The New England Patriots went into Denver, in a blizzard, and knocked off the #1 seed Denver Broncos. Sean Payton and Jarrett Stidham missed a couple opportunities and Drake Maye delivered the knockout punch with a QB rollout. The Seattle Seahawks and LA Rams clashsed in one of the best playoff games in history, with the Sam Darnold-Jaxon Smith-Njigba connection proving the driving force to send the Seahawks to the final game of the 2025 NFL Season.

Recorded: January 26th 2026 | On this weeks Monday NFL Recap, Taylor is hitting this one by himself with help from the boys in the back. The boys recap the NFC and AFC Championship games from this past weekend. The first game was the New England Patriots traveling out to the Denver Broncos. The biggest question going into this game was how backup quarterback, Jarrett Stidham, was going to play. He ended up not playing that bad but the weather became more of an issue. The snow had a massive factor in that game which may have been why Drake Maye only threw for 86 yards. Taylor breaks down the game and how Mike Vrabel's coaching was an x-factor. Then the boys get into the NFC Championship where the Los Angeles Rams traveled up to the Seattle Seahawks for a rubber match between the division foes. This game was high flying with points being scored everywhere. Taylor believes that Sam Darnold has officially put the haters to rest as he threw for over 300 yards and 3 TDs. Jaxon Smith-Njigba had a massive game is basically unstoppable. Finally the boys give their Super Bowl predictions, the bus is divided on who they are riding with. Le us know in the comments who you are taking. Enjoy fellas.

RUNDOWN   Mitch and Hotshot Scott reflect on the chaos and anticipation surrounding a third Seahawks–Rams matchup, debating momentum, matchup fatigue, and why this NFC Championship feels destined to be a coin flip despite Seattle's recent dominance. But the segment segues into a January 19th birthday remembrances, including Jean Stapleton, Junior Seau, Walter Jones, and a celebration of Dolly Parton. Mitch and Hotshot Scott relive all three previous NFC Championship Games at Lumen Field, from the 2006 breakthrough to the Miracle in 2014, while setting the stage for a fourth rubber match between the Seahawks and Rams. The discussion centers on the emotional weight of the 12th Man flag tradition following Paul Allen's legacy and the uncertainty around whether Pete Carroll, Jody Allen, or another iconic Seahawk should raise it. Ray Roberts explains why the Seahawks' 41–6 demolition of the 49ers wasn't a surprise, pointing to a confident, physical offensive line and a run game that has fully found its identity. He breaks down Kenneth Walker's late-season burst, the unselfish blocking culture among receivers, and how Sam Darnold's oblique injury hasn't altered Seattle's winning formula. Mitch, Brady Henderson, and Jacson Bevens break down why the Seahawks enter the NFC Championship Game in a stronger position than either previous matchup with the Rams, pointing to rest, home-field advantage, and a run game that has fully come alive. They discuss Sam Darnold's oblique injury, the status of key injuries up front, Kenneth Walker's late-season surge, and how Seattle might better contain Puka Nacua this time around. Mitch and Puck break down the emotional roller coaster of the Rams–Bears game and why the Rams, not Chicago, have always been the Seahawks' true postseason threat. They debate quarterback advantages, Sean McVay's mastery of the Seahawks defense, and whether Seattle's dominant run game and home-field edge can neutralize Matthew Stafford. The conversation also veers into NFC Championship superstitions, the 12th Man flag dilemma, and whether it's too soon for Pete Carroll to make a symbolic return.   GUESTS   Ray Roberts | Former NFL offensive lineman and Seahawks analyst Brady Henderson | Seahawks Insider, ESPN Jacson Bevens | Writer, Cigar Thoughts Jason Puckett | (Pucksports) Seattle Sports Radio Host/Analyst   TABLE OF CONTENTS   0:00 | Momentum, Memories, and Milestones — Seahawks–Rams III and a Walk Through January 19th History 18:58 | Three NFC Title Games, One Unanswered Question: Who Raises the 12th Man Flag This Time? 35:16 | GUEST: Ray Roberts; Ray Roberts Saw the Blowout Coming — Why the Seahawks Are Peaking at Exactly the Right Time 1:04:35 | GUEST: Seahawks No-Table; Seahawks–Rams Rubber Match Looms — Why Seattle Is Built for This Moment 1:27:02 | GUEST: Jason Puckett; Why the Rams Are the Seahawks' Real Problem — and Why This NFC Title Game Feels Inevitable 1:47:33 | Other Stuff Segment: Lil Jon halftime performance at Lumen Field, Seahawks home atmosphere and crowd energy, Little John diner in Bellevue/Issaquah, 2026 Seahawks outlook and salary cap space, Seahawks pending free agents (Kenneth Walker, Rashid Shaheed, Riq Woolen, Coby Bryant), Denver Broncos quarterback injury and Jarrett Stidham starting AFC Championship, college football playoff expansion debate (12 vs 16 vs 24 teams), Big Ten vs SEC power struggle, Mike Tomlin stepping down as Steelers head coach, Kyle Tucker signing with Dodgers, Dodgers vs Marlins payroll disparity, Mariners spending frustration, Arizona high school basketball player Adrian Stubbs scoring 100 points, KISS internal feud over "Beth" songwriting credit.
