Thanksgiving has come and gone and while you may be recovering from your food coma enjoy an extra helping of dessert with this week's episode. There were two big takeaways from the Thanksgiving games and I break them both down and why they resulted in the winners being very thankful moving forward. See why these teams were successful yesterday on what your team might have to do to turn it around moving forward.

Twenty years ago on November 18, 1998 the Robert Kraft announced that the New England Patriots would be moving to Hartford Connecticut for the 2001 season. The Project based in downtown Hartford would be over a billion dollars with the centerpiece being a new state-of-the-art 61,000 seat stadium. Despite the generous offer, the Patriots would ultimately stat in Foxborough and the rest is history. What happened? On this episode I am creating a new segment where I look at team's moving and why it happened. In this case there were multiple reasons why it didn't happen because of both Connecticut and the Robert Kraft. However, there's a third party that never gets mentioned which I'll reveal and exclusive audio from Robert Kraft on why the Patriots didn't move to Connecticut's Capital.

This weekend in college football features the matchup of the Duke Blue Devils and Clemson Tigers. While most people who tune in will be focusing on Clemson's journey to the College Football Playoff, but they will also see likely one of the top quarterback prospects in Duke's Daniel Jones. Jones has been rising up draft boards and I currently have him as the second quarterback on my draft board. With a strong showing against Clemson, he could be in line to be the first quarterback off the board in the 2019 NFL Draft.

The NFL has moved the Monday Night game from Mexico City due to poor field conditions at Estadio Azteca. The game will now be played at the LA Coliseum for this first Monday Game game since 1985. I break down why the NFL made the decision to move the game from Mexico City and also dive into what Le'Veon Bell sitting out the remainder of the 2018 season could mean when he hits free agency in the offseason.

After the New York Jets were embarrassed by the Buffalo Bills at Metlife Stadium, it's clear that Todd Bowles will be gone at the end of the season. While he is still the head coach at the moment, let's look at why the Jets are a mess and what the front office needs to do for the 2019 season.

On this episode we look at why Le'Veon Bell continuing his holdout is only hurting his stock moving forward and why he should report sooner then later. Then we get to the breaking news that Sam Darnold is injured and will miss his next start. What this means for the Jets and their head coach Todd Bowles.

Todd Bowles was on the hot seat coming into this season and it's only gotten hotter as Sam Darnold has regressed in recent weeks. On top of that Bowles made some questionable decisions in Miami such as keeping center Spencer Long in the game despite multiple bad snaps and then calling out his defense after the game despite giving up only six points. Check out this episode as I explain what Bowles has to do to keep his job and what coaching candidate I think the Jets should target for their next head coach.

Halfway through the NFL season one of the biggest headlines the entire season has been this year's class of rookie quarterbacks. On this episode, let's evaluate how each rookie quarterback has done and how their futures look with their respective franchises. Also, we look at one rookie quarterback that may have already himself a job before even stepping on the field.

We are halfway through the season and the first coach has officially been fired with the Cleveland Browns announcing that they are parting ways with Hue Jackson after going 3-36-1 in forty games. Offensive coordinator Todd Haley has also been fired from the Browns so it's perfect timing for the second part of our Hot Seat series. Halfway through this season let's look at my top five NFL coaches on the hot seat as we enter the final half of the 2018 NFL Season.

The New York Mets have concluded their search for a General Manager hiring agent Brodie Van Wagenen. Van Wagenen has represented Mets players such as Todd Frazier, Yoenis Cespedes, & Jacob deGrom. However, this move has experts and players concerned about the Mets moving forward. I give my thoughts on this decision from the Wilpon's influence to the Van Wagenen's role in the Mets front office. You won't want to miss this one!

On this episode we look at the first domino to fall during the NFL trading deadline with the Oakland Raiders trading Amari Cooper to the Dallas Cowboys for a first round pick. Not only do I give my reaction on the trade and who I felt came out the winner, but I also discuss which team's are being limited by their quarterback and what the future holds for them.

Multiple reports have come out the the NFL is worried about the long-term future of the Los Angeles Chargers. With the team struggling in attendance and selling PSL's the league appears to regret moving the Chargers out of San Diego. While the team has a twenty year lease in the new Los Angeles stadium, I break down what the NFL could do and why their is another destination outside of San Diego where the Chargers could eventually land.

Nick Bosa has left Ohio State to prepare for the upcoming NFL Draft as he recovers from an abdomen injury. While many people have criticized this decision, listen to my opinion on Bosa's decision and why I think other top prospects may follow his lead in the future.

Both the New York Giants and the Oakland Raiders have started off the 2018 NFL season by going 1-5. What do these teams have in common besides their record? They both are stuck in the past. On this episode we look in both Jon Gruden and Eli Manning and their impacts each franchise and what this means moving forward.

After falling to 1-5 it's clear that the 2018 New York Giants season is over. On this episode I analyze the Odell Beckham Jr. both leaving early in the second half and bashing his head against the sideline fan. Also, a breakdown on how Eli Manning is done and what the Giants need to do moving forward.

It's been a rocky start for the New York Giants and many were quick to call out Odell Beckham's latest comments about the offense and Eli Manning. However, I support Beckham for being honest and discuss why the Giants shouldn't have been surprised by his latest comments.

Seattle becoming the home of the NHL's 32nd franchise took another big step forward with the league putting the vote up to the board of governors in December. The board has never turned down an expansion bid and it's almost certain that Seattle will have the NHL in 2020. On this episode we not only talk about why this is big for Seattle, but is huge for the NHL's expansion plan and why this could be just the beginning of new NHL franchises.

At the quarter mark of the 2018 season, let's dive into what will be a quarterly segment call the "Hot Seat Special". At each quarter mark of the season I'll give you my top five coaches on the seat. This is based not only on this season, but their previous track record. If you see a coach that you think should be on this list or that you think should not be on the hot seat comment or send us an email at: Richsportstalk@gmail.com

After improving to 4-0 to start the 2018 season many people may thing the Los Angeles Rams were the big winner from their Thursday night matchup with the Minnesota Vikings. However, there was a bigger winner from this game and I talk about who this is and the significance on this episode.
