New episodes every Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday morning. Bookstore is part of Kirkwood and Dunn.

  Aug 14, 202639 minS1

  <p>Fernando Mendoza looked solid in his Raiders preseason debut, Curtis Rourke started for the 49ers, and Trent stayed up too late watching Hoosiers all over the NFL.

  <p>Adam Brenneman says Indiana isn't rebuilding, they upgraded — then separately predicts eight or nine wins. Trent breaks down the modern national media strategy of covering both sides so you're always right, and compares it to the old gambling hotline trick. Danny Kannell from Cover Three says the quiet part out loud asking why Indiana is ranked sixth — Trent responds by asking how you give Cignetti four losses on this schedule.</p><p>Then it's Tyler Cherry getting number two reps in fall camp (Trent wants the upside guy over Grant Wilson), Joe Brunner arriving from Wisconsin and immediately talking abou...
