Episode Description

In hour 2 of The Drive, Zach and Phil rank the quarterbacks in the AFC playoffs and debate where Bo Nix fits in the rankings. Is Josh Allen head-and-shoulders ahead of the rest of the group? Is Aaron Rodgers still a threat at his old age? Will Justin Herbert finally break through with a playoff win? Has Drake Maye proved enough by being an MVP candidate in his second year? Will Trevor Lawrence continue his hot streak into the playoffs? Is Bo Nix on par with CJ Stroud after Stroud has made the playoffs in each of his first 3 seasons? Today's "Three Count" features Davis Webb interviewing for the Las Vegas Raiders for the head coach opening and the crazy story in Washington with their quarterback signing a contract and now wanting to enter the transfer portal. We react to the breaking news of the Avalanche being named as the opponent for the Utah Mammoth in the "Winter Classic" next year.
