About this episode
Rich reacts to the emotional, tear-filled postgame press conference of Lions HC Dan Campbell after Detroit lost yet another game on a last-second field goal. In his NFL Week 5 ‘Overreaction Monday’ segment Rich weighs in on the Chargers-Browns shootout, the much maligned Ben Roethlisberger leading the Steelers to a win over the Broncos, if the Cowboys are the best team in the NFC, if the Chiefs could miss the playoffs this year, if Justin Fields can lead the Bears to the playoffs, and if Crimson Tide fans should press the panic button after #1 Alabama’s loss to unranked Texas A&M. Chargers RB Austin Ekeler and Rich discuss the team’s huge Week 5 slugfest win over the Browns and how the Bolts are changing their image away from the team that normally chokes in late-game situations, how Justin Herbert has grown as a QB and a leader after just one year in the NFL, what energy and confidence rookie head coach Brandon Staley has infused into the team’s locker room, and shares his unlikely journey to the NFL which began with a pro day where something highly unusual happened. Rich reacts to the Chargers’ success under Brandon Staley and how he’s already changing the team’s image just five games into his first season as a head coach, and has some advice for Sixers holdout point guard Ben Simmons.
