Can Ben Johnson bench Case Keenum after that performance?
Summary
Dan Bernstein and co-hosts debate the Chicago Bears' quarterback decision, weighing Ben Johnson's potential "trap game" against the Jets' historic pass rush. The conversation shifts to baseball, covering the Cubs and White Sox playoff matchups, the Astros' controversial fan-blaming, and the absurdity of "momentum" in sports. The episode concludes with a discussion on a WNBA incident involving Asia Wilson and a fan, followed by a humorous recap of a Senate hearing where a senator's attempt to impeach Jack Smith was derailed by a reference to an Atlanta Hawks game.
