The OKC Big 3 is headed for a divorce

The Thunder have struggled to start the year, and while some things need time to determine if they’re a success or failure, Colin thinks it’s safe to call this experiment a failure less than half way through the first season.

Colin compared the situation to a divorce, where the marriage is typically over long before the final papers are signed. There can be good days, and great moments, but it becomes clear it’s not working.

The Thunder won last night, but the sooner GM Sam Presti can face the embarrassment of owning up to the failure, he can tear this thing down and start over. Hopefully, he realizes it before the trade deadline, so he can get something by trading Paul George.

 

The Steelers pass the eye test, but New England is better by the numbers

The Steelers and Patriots play this weekend, in what could be a preview of the AFC Championship Game, and even though New England played terribly in a loss to the Dolphins, they’re still favorites against a Pittsburgh team riding an 8-game win streak.

The line caught many by surprise, because not only are the Steelers on fire, they have stars at every position. As Colin says, Vegas has no agenda, and when you look at the most of the key offensive and team statistics, New England has the advantage in most categories.

The Steelers pass the eye test, but when you dig deeper, it’s not hard to see why the Patriots are favored this week, and will be again in the playoffs.

Guests:

Heinz Ward – Former Steeler wide receiver joins the show to discuss playing the Patriots;  his take on Big Ben and Mike Tomlin’s relationship;

Eric Dickerson – FS1 NFL Analyst and NFL Hall of Famer is in-studio to talk about his visit with Ezekiel Elliott during his suspension; and his thoughts on Aaron Rodgers comeback.

Christian Pulisic – USMNT Soccer midfielder joins the show to discuss being named the U.S. Men’s Soccer player of the Year; his disappointment from failing to qualify for the World Cup; and the future of U.S. Soccer.

Greg Cosell – NFL Films Senior Producer joins the show to look at the film on Tom Brady’s struggles in Miami; if Nick Foles can step in and play in place of Carson Wentz; and why Derek Carr has struggled this year.
