3 & Out - NFL Wild Card Monday: Matt Sta...

iHeartPodcasts and The Volume
About this episode

John breaks down the Monday Night NFL Wild Card matchup where Matt Stafford, Sean McVay and the Los Angeles Rams kick the living crap out of Kevin O’Connell, Sam Darnold and the Minnesota Vikings by a score of 27-9. Middlekauff kicks us off by tipping his cap to a fast and physical Los Angeles Rams defense before GOING OFF on Minnesota Vikings HC Kevin O’Connell and QB Sam Darnold for imploding towards the end of their season. Middlekauff proceeds to compare O’Connell to James Harden, saying that he always performs in the regular season and folds when it matters the most. After, John reacts to the news that Mike McCarthy will not return as head coach of the Dallas Cowboys, and explains why owner Jerry Jones’ decision making over the last few weeks is confusing and unpredictable. John then goes on to wonder who could partner up with Jerry Jones and America’s team and throws out names such as Bill Belichick, Deion Sanders and Kellen Moore.

Later, John answers your questions in the episode's mailbag segment.
