Peter opens the podcast with a take on Bryce Young’s unprecedented benching in Carolina and the public reaction to Brian Callahan’s treatment of Will Levis in Week 2. Then, he brings in Michael Mulvihill, President, Insights and Analytics, Fox Sports, to discuss the dominance of the NFL in the media space. Mulvihill lifts the curtain on a variety of topics, including how the networks rank the top 50 matchups they’d like to broadcast for the NFL league’s office and schedule makers. They finish by discussing the teams that have the biggest national fan base, how Nielsen ratings still matter, and discuss the rare 10-game early window that was such a hit on NFL Red Zone last week.

Peter gives his instant reaction to the Jets’ sobering Week 1 loss to the 49ers, as well as an even more disappointing loss for the Giants on Sunday. Tampa Bay shut some people up and Peter does a mea culpa for flippantly taking the Falcons in the NFC South. 15-year veteran Brian Hoyer joins the show and goes deep on the Patriots surprising (to some) Week 1 win, Jerod Mayo, and offers some tremendous stories on Tom Brady, Julian Edelman, Danny Amendola, Gronk, Jimmy G, and Kyle Shanahan.
