Miller and Elias Pettersson, Matt Rempe, and the lowly Sabres. JD touches on some 'Stats You Should Know' (47:00). Brady Quinn, former NFL quarterback and FOX analyst, breaks down what's stood out most about Sam Darnold and the Minnesota Vikings' undeniably successful season, the active MVP race, the Washington Commanders as a playoff team, and how real parity is in the NFL (52:00). JD then gets into Vladimir Guerrero Jr.'s comments regarding a contract extension with the Blue Jays and the breaking point between the two sides (1:17:30). The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.   Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
