Kevin opens with his thoughts on nepotism as it relates to the Kyle Shanahan-led 49ers advancing to Super Bowl 54. Kevin recaps both the NFC Championship and AFC Championship games. He talked about the JP Finlay (NBC Sports Washington) report that Kevin O’Connell wanted the OC job in DC but Scott Turner won the battle of interviews. Caps, Terps, and Hoyas too.
Kevin and Thom open the show with a hypothetical choice, Brown or Beckham Jr.? They talk about Alex Ovechkin’s place in DC’s history. They previewed Chiefs-Titans and 49ers-Packers. They spent time on the continuing sign-stealing saga. Thom also revealed his MLB Hall of Fame ballot. Kevin had three Smell Test picks.
Kevin opened up with the Hall of Fame news that Jimbo Covert (Bears) is in….Joe Jacoby isn’t. Kevin, Aaron, and Ben Standig (The Athletic) talked Georgetown and college hoops before the conversation turned to the Jack Del Rio and Scott Turner press conferences yesterday.
Kevin opened with a legitimate reason for missing the podcast yesterday. Kevin and Thom discussed Maryland’s loss last night at Wisconsin and then debated Dwayne Haskins or Joe Burrow. More Redskins talk followed including the current odds on next year’s Super Bowl winner which revealed an early indication on what Vegas thinks of the 2020 Skins. They got to the Astros’ scandal, the Nats, and why Baltimore’s loss Saturday night to Tennessee wasn’t an indictment on Lamar Jackson.
It was a “Cooley and Kevin” Football Friday show. Plenty of Redskins discussion to start and then a game-by-game preview of this weekend’s four NFL Divisional Playoff games. Kevin finished up with 3 “Smell Test” picks.
