The Ultimate Longevity War In Sports History | Josh Allen’s Missing Piece

Cris Carter and Shawn Meaike break down the biggest storylines in the NFL heading into the season, starting with Dak Prescott's bold declaration that the playoffs are the floor for the Dallas Cowboys and where George Pickens fits into that plan. CC and Shawn also dig into Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills under new head coach Joe Brady, whether the wide receiver market is paying players for potential over production, and Tom Brady's private mentorship advice to Raiders rookie quarterback Mendoza. The back half of the show turns into one of the most heated debates yet, LeBron James versus Tom Brady for the greatest longevity in sports history, plus a deep dive into route running versus athleticism at wide receiver and whether today's NFL players are actually better or just more athletic than past generations. CC also answers fan questions on Michael Irvin's legacy and the Steelers versus 49ers dynasty debate.
