In this episode, John looks at why the NFL can work despite not being in a 'bubble', why Earl thomas has become more of a headache than he's worth, why he thinks North Dakota State top QB prospect Trey Lance should pass on a one game showcase, why the Jags handling of the Yannick Ngakoue situation is just the latest sign of their incompetence.

He also gives his best bets for conference winners, and answers listener questions in the Middlekauff Mailbag. Follow John on twitter @JohnMiddlekauff and go to theherdnow.com to find the latest content. Subscribe now!
