Hour 2: The Wide World of Walt is back, and it's time to get weird. This episode is all about the return of the NFL season, and the guys are excited. They're discussing their predictions for the Super Bowl and the NFL MVP, with some surprising picks. But first, they dive into some fun questions, like who would win in a fight between a crocodile, a kangaroo, or a shark.
The guys are also talking about their Madden simulations, where they predict the 49ers' season. Walt thinks they'll go 7-10, while Murph is more optimistic, but both are selling that notion. They also discuss the teams that will make the playoffs, with Murph predicting the Chargers will bounce the Broncos out of the playoffs.
The guys also talk about the Giants' recent games, including a win against the Cardinals, and the impressive performance of young player Christian Koss. They discuss the team's roster changes and the impact of having a lot of new faces. Mike Krukow joins the conversation, talking about the Giants' chances and the importance of consistency in baseball.
The episode wraps up with some sad news for the 49ers, as they lose starting defensive tackle Alfred Collins for the season due to a patellar tendon injury. The guys discuss the team's depth and the importance of finding a replacement.
