Jason Fitz is joined by Jori Epstein and Frank Schwab to attempt to diagnose the reason behind some of the quarterbacks struggles through the first two weeks of the NFL season. The trio spend the first portion of the show on Bryce Young and the reason behind his benching, including David Tepper's involvement, the Carolina Panthers season outlook with Andy Dalton at the helm and where Carolina's awful three-year stretch ranks in pro sports history. Fitz, Jori and Frank also cover the early struggles of Caleb Williams, Will Levis, Aaron Rodgers and Kirk Cousins.

Later, Frank gives insight into his weekly power rankings as the trio talk about the Dallas Cowboys only dropping two spots after a brutal loss to the New Orleans Saints and why the Miami Dolphins are now at 23 after starting last week at 9, which leads to a conversation around how to talk about Tua Tagovailoa's difficult situation.

The trio finish the show by giving their picks for the Thursday night game featuring the New England Patriots and the New York Jets.

(2:15) Bryce Young benching: how did we get here?

(23:30) How can Caleb Williams overcome his slow start?

(29:45) Can Will Levis stop making game-changing mistakes?

Jason Fitz and Frank Schwab take a deep dive into the Baltimore Ravens’ narrow loss to the Kansas City Chiefs on the first Thursday Night Football game of the season. Does Lamar Jackson’s offensive line need some work or is the Chiefs’ defense just *that* good?

The two give some early superlative predictions for the NFL season from the ‘Kirk Cousins Award’ for mediocrity to the ‘Barry Sanders Award’ for the player who’ll have to carry their bad team (looking at you Raiders).

Later, Fitz & Frank give their bold predictions for the remaining Week 1 games including Jordan Love coming back down to earth vs. Philadelphia, the Carolina Panthers starting 1-0 against the New Orleans Saints and, against all odds, a good season for Sam Darnold and the Minnesota Vikings.

Jason Fitz is joined by Jori Epstein and Frank Schwab to take a deeper dive into some more nuanced conversation around NFL teams in a segment called "Two Things Can Be True." The trio discuss the San Francisco 49ers' odd, bad-vibes offseason and their concern level for the team at the start of the season, the Denver Broncos and whether the Sean Payton-Bo Nix hype needs to be tempered, the New England Patriots and whether or not Drake Maye being the better quarterback means he should be the starter and the Kansas City Chiefs and why their winning formula may or may not be repeatable.

Fitz, Frank and Jori finish the show off with their predictions for the Thursday night season opener between the Baltimore Ravens and Kansas City Chiefs.

(6:50) Can the 49ers overcome an unusual offseason?

(19:10) What are reasonable expectations for the 2024 Broncos?
