WHAT WE COVER THIS EPISODE

CC opens up on Travis Hunter and what his role looks like at the next level, projecting him as an elite defensive player with a specialized offensive package.

Then the guys get into AJ Brown leaving Jalen Hurts and the Eagles to join Drake May and the Patriots, and whether that move unlocks Brown back to his best.

CC's take is direct: Drake May is a better fit for AJ Brown than Jalen Hurts ever was, and he expects Brown to put up numbers that remind people why he is one of the best receivers in the league.

From there CC names the one player he would start an NBA franchise with today, and it is not a debate.

Then he and Shawn break down whether Giannis is the right move for the Heat and who actually won that trade between Miami and Milwaukee.

The Bears stadium situation gets the full treatment, with CC explaining why the move to Indiana has nothing to do with fans and everything to do with politics and land development.

The guys get into why the Rams are the Super Bowl favorites, which AFC and NFC sleepers are worth a bet, and how good Drake May and AJ Brown are going to be together in New England.

CC makes the case for why Jeffrey Simmons deserved every dollar of his $106 million extension and what it says about leadership in an NFL locker room.

The UFC conversation goes deep, from Conor McGregor's return to whether the sport has a star problem, what fighters actually get paid, and why guys are now getting surgery to have cauliflower ears.

CC also shares his take on the greatest NFL coach in history, the story of his first game at Ohio State without gloves, and who he believes is the hardest person to ever tackle in open field.
