Tiki and the crew hit the QB carousel chatter (Rodgers fatigue included), debate the real value of this year's wide receiver buzz, and dig into whether Max Crosby trade smoke is actually real or just a Tom Brady conversation away from disappearing. Then the local angle heats up with Jets franchise tag talk for Breece Hall and why a transition tag makes way more sense than the non-exclusive tag. They also touch the new head coach era with John Harbaugh and Mike McCarthy at the podium, the “Mendoza mania” storyline that might be nothing, and the draft question that could define this class: will there be a second quarterback in Round 1, or are we staring at a rare one QB first round scenario? Finally, they get into Jeremiah Love and how high is too high for a running back, even if he's a top tier talent.
Evan gets roasted for an airplane meltdown scenario before the show pivots back to the NFL Combine and the New York Post's “biggest offseason storylines” game: the QB carousel, Stafford rumors, franchise tags (including Breece Hall), and whether this draft really could produce only one Round 1 quarterback again. Plus, a deep dive into what the Giants should actually spend on in free agency, why Tyler Linderbaum might be too pricey, and why Cordale Flott could be the sneaky “whoa” contract of the offseason. The hour also features Cinco de Luncho with the Top 5 local NFL players we want back, capped by a full-on debate about trading Kayvon Thibodeaux and why selling low makes no sense. Also in the mix: Tommy Lugauer's travel nightmare, a rabbit hole on the Hughes hockey family, and the weirdest medal-ceremony tradition that has athletes getting handed stuffed mascots right after heartbreak.
We're back from the Super Bowl hangover with a full QB Carousel episode. Nine teams have serious quarterback questions heading into free agency (March 11) — and the contract situations are ugly: dead cap, post–June 1 cuts, trade candidates, and slim free-agent options.We go team-by-team through the Raiders, Jets, Cardinals, Browns, Falcons, Dolphins, Vikings, Colts, and Steelers to call our shots on who starts Week 1 — plus the fantasy ripple effects.Follow Bush League Huddle for year-round NFL + fantasy content across YouTube, Spotify, Apple, TikTok, IG, and X.

In this segment, Marc Malusis fields a call from "Angel in the Bronx," who expresses deep concern over the New York Jets' history of "throwing rookies to the wolves" too early. Referencing the failed tenures of Sam Darnold and Zach Wilson, the discussion shifts to the potential 2026 top prospect Fernando Mendoza (the recent Indiana Heisman winner). Malusis argues that while the Jets often rush development to spark a "maturation process," the success of a quarterback depends more on the individual player's scouting and the team's internal pressure to win immediately.
In this fast-paced segment, Marc Malusis breaks down the pivotal decisions facing New York's biggest franchises. He dives into the NFL Draft debate, weighing the high-stakes potential of Fernando Mendoza against the technical polish of Simpson, while cautioning the Jets against repeating their history of "convincing themselves" into a quarterback. The conversation then shifts to the ice, where Malusis offers a sobering evaluation of the New York Rangers. He discusses the closing championship window, the lack of homegrown player development, and the tough reality of navigating a veteran roster in a salary-cap world. Whether it's draft capital or blue-line struggles, Malusis provides the essential New York sports perspective.
