Ominous Start for the Brooklyn Nets, Thursday Night Football Best Bets + Author Tyler Dunne

On today's episode, Jason kicks things off with a quick whip around the NBA and explains why the Brooklyn Nets blowout loss to the New Orleans Pelicans on their home floor is an ominous sign. Kyrie Irving is as delusional as ever, and now suddenly his on-court play has started to taper off. It's definitely something to monitor moving forward. Later, Go Long founder and author of the new book ‘The Blood and Guts: How Tight Ends Save Football’, Tyler Dunne, swings by discuss how the NFL is trying to find a middle ground between violence and player safety, why Tony Gonzalez should be viewed as the pivot point for the modern day tight end, what makes the position so difficult to play, why he thought the Green Bay Packers should have traded Aaron Rodgers two years ago, the idea of a Buffalo Bills-Minnesota Vikings Super Bowl, and much more! Finally, J-Mac closes the show with a Thursday Night Football Arizona Cardinals-New Orleans Saints edition of the Best Bet.
