NFL Ends the Pro Bowl | 49ers & Cardinals Preview — Coach and Company

Published 3 weeks, 6 days ago
Description

College football is back, betting is returning to Coach and Company, and the NFL has delivered a major change before the season begins. Simply The Coach is joined by Mikey P and Peyton to discuss the league’s decision to stop staging the AFC–NFC Pro Bowl game while preserving the honor for an official 88-player class with no replacement selections. The crew also reacts to the NFL’s multi-year sportsbook agreements with DraftKings, FanDuel, and Fanatics, then rolls into Tour Championship best bets and the PGA TOUR’s coming two-week match-play finale.

In Gridiron Time, the guys examine whether San Francisco’s competitive window can survive another wave of injuries, how much Brock Purdy can elevate the roster, and what George Kittle, Mike Evans, Deebo Samuel, and Christian McCaffrey must provide. They then turn to Arizona’s quarterback timeline with Jacoby Brissett, Gardner Minshew II, and rookie Carson Beck before debating which team finishes at the bottom of the NFC West. The show closes with the travel questions surrounding the 49ers–Rams opener at the Melbourne Cricket Ground and the announcement of the Memphis–UNLV watch-along.
