First, (3:00) Colin explains why Kirby Smart is wrong about NIL money ruining the motivation of young athletes. 

Then, former Vikings linebacker and current analyst Ben Leber joins Colin to discuss his recent viral comments reporting a rift between Kirk Cousins and former Vikings Head Coach Mike Zimmer (8:00), if Minnesota should be favored over Aaron Rodgers and the Packers in the NFC North (14:00), why the franchise hasn’t been able to win a Super Bowl (22:00), the impact of Brett Favre on the ‘09 team (27:00), why playing QB in Green Bay is unique to anything else in the NFL (35:00), and how the Vikings will look different under new head coach Kevin O’Connell (40:00).

Prime Cuts - Sam Darnold Injury, Drake Maye’s Ugly Performance, Sophie Cunningam

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/e73c998e-6e60-432f-8610-ae210140c5b1/clips/beb31b24-95c6-4c64-a952-b4c201333e12/transcript

Colin gives his reaction to the 49ers dominating the Rams in their opener in Australia on Netflix.

He argues that Kyle Shanahan has always given Sean McVay problems, and that the crowd in Melbourne gave the Niners a home-field advantage (2:00). He lauds the physicality and energy the 49ers played with, and compares performances of Brock Purdy and Matthew Stafford and argues that if the 49ers can stay healthy…they will be tough to beat (7:00). 

He also previews the Eagles vs Commanders game (18:30).

Then, Colin is joined by Sophie Cunningham, WNBA star and host of the “No Hesitation” podcast on The Volume.

They start with the rumor mill swirling about her old podcast, why she thinks it’s all dumb and manufactured, and why she wanted to focus her podcast on the WNBA and basketball (25:00). They discuss the superstar qualities of Sophie’s teammate Caitlin Clark (28:15). They also talk about WNBA commissioner Kathy Engelbert’s struggles with being able to capitalize on the surge in popularity that Clark brought to the league and her lack of engagement with the players (30:00).

They discuss her status as both being the “tough girl” while also being the league’s “sex symbol” and she pushes back on the notion that you can’t be both girly and tough (33:30). 

They break down why the WNBA level of play has improved so much from her first year in the league to now in year seven and the elevated level of athleticism players have now (38:45). They discuss her famous pointing gesture on the court that became a viral meme (41:00), and whether the Fever can win the title (43:00).
