Mike Ditka on Las Vegas Raiders vs. Chicago Bears
We’ll kick things off with da Coach, Mike Ditka, who says that while a lot is being said about the coaches of these teams, it’s the players who play the game.
“I think the Raiders have a better team,” said Ditka. But who does he think will actually win the game? You might be surprised by his verdict:

Brandon Stokley on Denver Broncos vs. Pittsburgh Steelers
Legendary wide receiver Brandon Stokely laments the Broncos’ inability to stop Lamar Jackson’s air attack last week in Denver. Now, the Broncos travel to Pittsburgh, where the Steelers are angry about their recent loss to the Packers.
Stokley says the Steelers may have a problem at QB.
“Big Ben looks injured, he looks old, he looks tired. He just doesn’t look the same.”
But will that be the difference in the game? Listen to his breakdown right here:
