In hour 3 of The Drive, Zach and Phil debate who Broncos Country should be rooting for between the Chiefs and Colts when they matchup this weekend. Is it more important for the Broncos to try and win the one seed in the AFC of for the Chiefs to potentially not make the playoffs? If the Broncos could go back in time, would they have altered their plan of drafting Jahdae Barron? Would a first-round running back or tight end be more impactful for this season's Broncos team? What are the guys looking for from the Nuggets tonight as they take on a lesser team in the Pelicans? Will the team be able to have a professional approach and blow out New Orleans and give Jokic rest in the 4th quarter? Zach and Phil debate Deion Sanders' standing at the University of Colorado. Is Deion on the hot seat if he cannot turn his program around next season with a new athletic director coming to CU?

Jokic, Curry, Wemby, and more. Everyone went off last night. Except for the Kings.

GP opens on the Grizzlies 131-95 loss in Boston last night where the defense looked the worst it has looked all season. And will the return of Zach Edey be enough to turn things around? (20:20) Mike Wallace joins from Boston to continue the Grizzlies discussion(48:40) Luka comments on Nico Harrison's firing, Jokic goes big last night, RIP to the Penny, and a fun night of College Hoops on tap. (1:18:50) GP's Carry Out 

0:00 - We flap our gums a lot about Bo Nix and his deficiencies, Sean Payton's playcalling, this enigmatic Broncos team, etc. But let's get the thoughts of someone who's been there, done that, and won a Super Bowl doing it. Emmanuel Sanders made his return to Moser, Lombardi and Kane. 14:37 - Have you seen the Halloween movies? The Kansas City Chiefs are Michael Myers. You can shoot them in the face, burn them, stab them, run them over with a car, you name it. They'll still come back to haunt you. They're unkillable. 31:43 - We're only 11 games into the season, but Jokic is putting up stats that we've never seen before in NBA history. He's doing things that even Wilt himself hasn't done!

0:00 - Yesterday, Bo Nix was asked how he handles all the criticism of his play right now. His answer was simple: delete all social media. If you got something to say, say it to my face. That's a great attitude to have. But some of that is an occupational hazard. You're the starting QB of the Denver Broncos. You exist under a high-powered media microscope.15:25 - Let's preview Broncos vs Chiefs this Sunday with our Broncos Insider: ESPN's Jeff Legwold.35:42 - Clippers Head Coach Ty Lue had an interesting strategy for handling Jokic last night. Don't double team him so he doesn't pass out of it and set up other guys for buckets. Instead, guard him one-on-one and force him to shoot. Well, you see how that went. 

0:00 - How does he keep doing it?? How does Jokic keep finding new ways to impress us?? Not only did he drop a 55-piece right on the Clippers and Kawhi Leonard's tree farm, the Nuggets WON! They never win when Jokic drops 50! Unreal. Jokic is inevitable.17:58 - 20 points seems to be the magic number for the Broncos. Hold your opponent under that mark, and you have a good chance of winning. Can they hold the Chiefs to less than 20?34:03 - The Nuggets handled the Clip Show last night. The Clippers experiment is going belly up pretty quickly, but still, an impressive all-around effort from the Nuggets last night. Oh, and Jokic singlehandedly outscored LA's starters, which helps.

Nikola Jokic is getting in MVP form RIGHT NOW as he scored 25 of his 55 points in the first quarter!!!! Jokic carried the Nuggets until Spencer Jones and Tim Hardaway stepped up in the 3rd Quarter while filling in for Braun and Johnson in the 2nd Half. Another well rounded performance from the bench after a tough back to back. Nonetheless, they got the win and Jason Kosmicki had the call near the wall in Englewood, CA! 

AWadd brings us into the show as always with the biggest stories from around the sports as we open up the sports app. Today on the Sports App, VCU had a massive win over St. Peters, Virginia Tech basketball is going to be a problem, the Wizards drop another game and Jokic goes for 55. Today on NFL Hits we look ahead to the offseason at teams that could use a new signal caller next season. Could the Browns, Falcons, and Vikings hold on for one more season with their guys or is it time to move on? Robby Robinson joins the show to talk about a bounce back win for VCU last night at the Stu against St. Peters with a 78-61 victory. AWadd and J-Money discuss the dysfunction around the Philadelphia Eagles and AJ Brown who recently told fantasy managers to drop him after another disappointing statistical performance in a 10-7 win on Monday night football against the Packers.

In this episode of Sports the NEMO Way we bring the current top 10 players of the NBA to the table for discussion. NBA is in full swing so here is a second week in a row of NBA. As of right now as a Pacers fan I'm not too happy about the NBA season, but its not the NBA's fault it just kinda sucks, but I enjoyed watching my team at least toughing out these close games that's all you can ask of a team that 10 players on an injured list, but this episode isn't a Pacers episode this is a top 10 players episode so who's your top 10. You might be surprised with our top 10 or maybe you won't be only time will tell. So go enjoy the episode, have a great day and we'll see you all next week...Peace. One last thing go fuck yourself Myles Turner your whole 10 year career in Indiana could be compared to a bench player so don't act like you were some kind of world beater because you sure were not that, and the way you shriveled up in the finals like a cold penis was ridiculous. So get off your high horse and eat that Wisconsin cream. Ok rant over peace .

Ma$e, Cam'ron & Treasure "Stat Baby" Wilson are here with another one!! On this episode, the Playmaker Michael Irvin is back to address the viral moment between him & Syracuse Coach Fran Brown, he tells us all the details! Then, OKC dominates the Lakers, is anyone a threat to the OKC Thunder repeat plans? Next, what is Dallas going to do with Klay Thompson? We continue with hoops by talking about the NEW NBA All Star format which we can't lie sounds AWFULLY familiar if you ask Murda & Killa! Then, Jokic drops 55 on the Clippers in Denver's big win to move to 9-3 and to make matters worse for LA, Beal gets shutdown for the SEASON with his recent injury. Last but not least, there's a new QB starting this weekend for the New York Giants and his name is Jameis Winston!

0:00 - Our old friend Jake the Snake joined us today to discuss his breakdown of Bo Nix. Jake explained what Bo and Sean need to do to cut Bo loose, and more importantly, he coined a new phrase that will live on our show forever.19:20 - We have some numbers that encapsulate just how efficient Nikola Jokic is, and it's truly hard to believe. After that, AJ Brown is still miserable even though his team is winning. What is it about Philly, man?34:06 - Moser spent an entire commercial break listening to the sounds of car engines and loved every second of it.

0:00 - The Ball Arena roommates are ROLLIN right now! They're both unstoppable forces. Gabe Landeskog finally got a goal that wasn't waived off, and Jokic cemented himself as the most efficient athlete of all time.14:26 - Why are both the Avalanche and Nuggets so good right now and winning games they would've lost in previous years. Depth. It's that simple. These rosters are they most complete they've ever been. Even more complete than the championship years. 31:44 - The more and more Brett thinks about this Broncos vs Chiefs clash on Sunday the more and more nervous he gets...because no matter what the numbers say, the Chiefs are still the Chiefs. If the Broncos get into a weird 10-7 Raiders Thursday Night Football-esque slog with the Chiefs, doesn't it feel like Patrick Mahomes would slither out a win at the last second like he always does?

Sacramento Kings lose to the Denver Nuggets 122-108In this episode of The Royal Report I discuss the matchup of Domantas Sabonis vs Nikola Jokic, the Kings getting great bench play, and Doug Christie mixing up the rotations.

The Denver Nuggets could feel the effects of this late start as they struggled to find their consistency from jump street. But when all else fails, Nikola Jokic comes to the rescue. Jokic had the dagger and Braun added the cherry on top. The Nuggets won 122-108 in the 1st of a 3 game road trip. 

Brian Windhorst is joined by ESPN's Tim Bontemps and Tim MacMahon to talk the Pistons looking poised for another big leap forward this season, the Rockets winning games how good teams do, the Suns outperforming expectations, if it's time to panic about the Clippers, Jokic's dominance, the drama in Dallas and more.
