The Drive | Hour 4 | 12.30.25

In hour 4 of The Drive, Zach and Phil share and react to the great news we received today as a show and a station. We thank the listeners for tuning into the show the previous two and a half years since Zach and Phil started working The Drive. We shift gears to the Broncos and react to the Broncos 2026 opponents and how difficult of a road it will be with 10 playoff teams on the schedule. We breakdown the Avalanche as they continue their red-hot streak, winning their 8^th straight game. While the Avs scored 5 goals, is there still reason to be concerned with the power play as they went 0-4 last night? We wrap up the show with DenverSports.com's Will Petersen joining the show to discuss the good news we got today from the Nuggets and Nikola Jokic only missing about a month instead of the possible year with a torn ACL. Can the Nuggets still stay out of the NBA playoff play-in tournament?
