Kyle’s Baltimore Ravens are 0-2 after losing to the Las Vegas Raiders, but Gerald’s co-host did manage to pick up 2 sacks in the losing effort. What do the Ravens need to do to turn their season around?

Jason Fitz and Frank Schwab take a deep dive into the Baltimore Ravens’ narrow loss to the Kansas City Chiefs on the first Thursday Night Football game of the season. Does Lamar Jackson’s offensive line need some work or is the Chiefs’ defense just *that* good?
The two give some early superlative predictions for the NFL season from the ‘Kirk Cousins Award’ for mediocrity to the ‘Barry Sanders Award’ for the player who’ll have to carry their bad team (looking at you Raiders).
Later, Fitz & Frank give their bold predictions for the remaining Week 1 games including Jordan Love coming back down to earth vs. Philadelphia, the Carolina Panthers starting 1-0 against the New Orleans Saints and, against all odds, a good season for Sam Darnold and the Minnesota Vikings.

Jason Fitz is joined by Jori Epstein and Frank Schwab to take a deeper dive into some more nuanced conversation around NFL teams in a segment called "Two Things Can Be True." The trio discuss the San Francisco 49ers' odd, bad-vibes offseason and their concern level for the team at the start of the season, the Denver Broncos and whether the Sean Payton-Bo Nix hype needs to be tempered, the New England Patriots and whether or not Drake Maye being the better quarterback means he should be the starter and the Kansas City Chiefs and why their winning formula may or may not be repeatable.
Fitz, Frank and Jori finish the show off with their predictions for the Thursday night season opener between the Baltimore Ravens and Kansas City Chiefs.

Nate Tice is joined by Charles McDonald and Matt Harmon to give their final predictions ahead of the 2024 NFL season, including awards like MVP and rookies of the year, division winners, Super Bowl champs and more.
The trio start off with their picks for Offensive & Defensive Player of the Year (one chalky and one dark horse), as Ceedee Lamb is the favorite, but Charles likes Nico Collins as a dark horse. For Offensive & Defensive Rookie of the Year, the trio discuss Caleb Williams, Drake Maye, Byron Murphy, Dallas Turner, Blake Corum and more. The hosts have three different answers for Coach of the Year and Comeback Player of the Year before moving on to MVP, where Matt likes C.J. Stroud to take a big year two leap, and Charles gets as chalky as you can get.
Later, Nate, Charles and Matt move on to their division winners and playoff teams, as they agree on every AFC division winner but disagree on some key NFC divisions. All three have the Kansas City Chiefs making the Super Bowl, but the NFC teams are all different. Nate gives the Green Bay Packers as his Super Bowl champ.

Gerald McCoy and Kyle Van Noy are hyped to start the season and they kick off this episode looking at the reigning NFC champs, the San Francisco 49ers, who have had a tumultuous offseason coming off of a Super Bowl loss and multiple contract disputes.

Nate Tice and Matt Harmon join forces to preview every team in the NFC. For each team they discuss win totals, give a player to watch and try to predict why each team could under- or over-perform expectations this season.
The duo start with the loaded NFC North, as Matt pushes back on Nate's Sam Darnold hype, Nate loves the Chicago and Detroit defenses and both are very optimistic about the Green Bay offense.
Next up is the NFC West, as Nate continues his praise of the Arizona offense, both express optimism about the Seattle Seahawks and concern regarding San Francisco and Los Angeles.
For the NFC East, Matt is completely out on the Washington defense but likes the New York defense a lot, and both reluctantly take the over for the Dallas Cowboys and comfortably take the over for the Philadelphia Eagles.
Last up is the NFC South, where Carolina still has a long way to go, New Orleans is a mess, Tampa Bay is Nate's team of the summer and the Atlanta Falcons are probably being overrated.
(2:50) NFC North: Minnesota Vikings, Chicago Bears, Green Bay Packers, Detroit Lions
(29:05) NFC West: Arizona Cardinals, Seattle Seahawks, Los Angeles Rams, San Francisco 49ers

CeeDee Lamb has his new mega-contract, which sparks some debate about the future of the Dallas Cowboys and Dak Prescott, and whether or not we expect Prescott to be on the team next season.
Jori wrapped up her training camp tour in New England and Philadelphia, and debate ensues over whether or not Drake Maye should start for the New England Patriots Week 1, and whether or not the Philadelphia Eagles can endure their losses from the offseason.

Nate Tice and Charles McDonald join forces to preview every team in the AFC. For each team they discuss win totals, give a player to watch and try to predict why each team could under- or over-perform expectations this season.
After discussing why the Georgia Bulldog championship-winning defense has underperformed so far in the NFL, Nate and Charles dive into why they are hyped about the AFC South, as Nate predicts that all four teams will go over their win totals. They're especially curious about the Tennessee Titans and Indianapolis Colts.
The AFC West looks worse than it has in years past, and both expect the Kansas City Chiefs to get plenty of easy wins against their division rivals.
The AFC East is up next, as Nate thinks Drake Maye should start immediately for the New England Patriots, and that the Buffalo Bills have an underrated run game.
Finally, the AFC North looks to be an absolute bloodbath, as each team has major question marks that could slow them down, but the talent on all four rosters is too good to ignore.
(2:20) What happened to the national champion Georgia defense?
(10:30) AFC South: Tennessee Titans, Indianapolis Colts, Jacksonville Jaguars and Houston Texans
(51:05) AFC West: Denver Broncos, Las Vegas Raiders, Los Angeles Chargers and Kansas City Chiefs

Two-time All-Pro Gerald McCoy and two-time Super Bowl winner Kyle Van Noy get back together to talk through NFL news, interview Jets All-Pro DT Quinnen Williams and answer your questions.
(01:20) - RIP Ravens OL coach Joe D'Alessandris
(04:20) - Is the Jahan Dotson trade disrespectful?
(09:05) - Can Dave Canales be the Bryce Young whisperer?
(17:45) - Top 5 defensive tackles in the NFL
(28:10) - Quinnen Williams interview
(38:40) - Mailbag!
(57:40) - Drive to Win: Preseason week 3
On this episode of McCoy & Van Noy, Kyle kicks things off by talking about the recent passing of Baltimore Ravens offensive line coach Joe D’Alessandris. Kyle tells a story about a conversation they had and how Coach D was regarded in the Ravens locker room.
After the Washington Commanders traded former 1st round pick Jahan Dotson to the Philadelphia Eagles, the guys wonder….is it disrespectful to trade a player to your division rival? Dave Canales must’ve listened to last week’s episode because he played Panthers QB Bryce Young this week and the results were fantastic. Is Canales the QB whisperer that can turn Young’s career around?
Before interviewing Quinnen Williams, the guys wondered where the Jets All-Pro DT ranked among the best defensive tackles in the NFL today. Unsurprisingly, he made both Gerald and Kyle’s top 5 list. Former NFL DT Gerald McCoy then interviewed current Jets DT Quinnen Williams about who he watches on tape to get better and how being a family man has guided both of their NFL careers.
The guys then open up the mailbag, answering a whole host of questions from McCoy & Van Noy listeners. To get your question answered, send an email to [email protected]. Finally, the guys pick out their Drive to Win players from the final week of the NFL preseason before wrapping up the show.
