This week’s show:

• Shouldn’t college coaches be responsible for better preparing their quarterbacks for the NFL?

• Why the lack of Belichick era Patriots in the Hall of Fame?

• What would your philosophical approach to free agency be?

• Why do athletic freaks get drafted ahead of high-character guys, when the high-character guys usually pan out better?

• If offenses can get defenses to tip their hand by flexing a fullback out wide, can defenses counter by playing zone out of a man set-up, or vice versa?

• How has the new CBA practice rules affected teams?

• Are, like, Belichick’s former assistants going around the AFC sabotaging other teams by acquiring terrible quarterbacks?

• How does Jimme Ward fit at free safety for the Niners?

• In light of the 7-footer as a red zone receiving threat question, how about a Darren Sproles-sized guy as a pass-rush specialist?
