Rich and the guys react to the first day in the MLB Wild Card Round of the playoffs that included a dramatic late-game home from Braves 3B Austin Riley to beat the Phillies, the Padres’ 8-0 trouncing of the Cubs, the Pope blessing the White Sox prior to their Game 1 win over the Astros, and the Yankees’ 9-0 whitewash of their AL East rival Red Sox. Pro Football Hall of Famer/NFL Network Analyst Kurt Warner and Rich discuss Drake Maye’s precipitous falloff this season, what’s (still) ailing the Eagles’ offense, why the Vikings cut bait with JJ McCarthy and what the Giants’ long-term plans could be for the former 1st-rounder, if he’s coming around on the 3-0 Raiders after doubting their success earlier this season, and what the Cowboys did wrong in late in the game in their Week 3 loss to the Ravens.
