Straight Fire with Jason McIntyre -- Mahomes the Magician, How Aaron Rodgers is Like LeBron&It's Timeout for Tua - a podcast by FOX Sports Radio (FSR-PR)

On today's episode, Jason interrupts his much-needed vacation to share his thoughts on the 5 biggest headlines to come out of Sunday's Week 11 NFL action. First, he explains why Patrick Mahomes' latest heroic victory - this time against the Las Vegas Raiders on Sunday Night Football - is just another reason why he may go down in history as the Greatest Quarterback of All-Time. You need him to throw an 80-yard bomb? No problem. You want him to check it down all the way to the endzone? He can do that, too. No matter what the situation is, you can count on Mahomes to get it done. The second biggest story of the day took place in Miami where Dolphins head coach Brian Flores inexplicably benched rookie quarterback Tagovailoa late in their loss to the Denver Broncos. Tua was having a rough game, and that's putting it mildly, but part of developing a young quarterback is letting him learn from experiences like that. Flores may have done irreparable harm to his franchise player. Next, Jason explains why Aaron Rodgers could go down in history as the LeBron James of the NFL. On one hand, they're both arguably the greatest to ever do it in the sports that they play; on the other, they're likely both going to end their careers with less rings than you'd expect a player of that caliber to have. For whatever reason, Rodgers can't seem to get it done in overtime games. Unless he can find a way to get that ship righted he's never going to win another Super Bowl. The fourth biggest story of the day has to be the deterioration of Carson Wentz. At one point, Wentz was an MVP front-runner destined to take over the League. Now? He’s arguably the worst starting quarterback in all of football. It might be too soon to turn the keys over to Jalen Hurts given Wentz’ contract situation, but the idea definitely needs to be on the table moving forward. Later, Jason tells us why Taysom Hill should be thanking the New Orleans Saints for helping him get the win in his first NFL start against the Atlanta Falcons. That’s not to say that Hill played poorly – he played pretty well actually – but the Saints defense has been lights out for three straight weeks now. If they can keep it up, they should be the favorites to win the NFC. Finally, Jason closes things out with the Monday Night Football edition of the Best Bet. Let’s just hope it does better than his Sunday picks.Click here to subscribe and download all of the latest Straight Fire with Jason McIntyre podcasts!
