C.J. and Paul also go into the Rockies recent road series in San Francisco.
C.J. and Paul Klee weigh in on recent comments made by John Elway about quarterback Paxton Lynch. Elway recently said “We think he’s going to be ready quicker than a lot of people think.” C.J. hopes that it isn’t just a ploy from John Elway to try to motivate Paxton Lynch. Paul Klee wonders how long it will take for Lynch to be able to handle the pressure of the NFL. The guys take phone calls and look at when Lynch might see the field as a starter.
C.J. and Paul then look into how the Broncos’ handled their quarterback situation last year. C.J. and Paul Klee agree that if they can handle a quarterback situation with Peyton Manning, than they can handle one with Mark Sanchez and Paxton Lynch. C.J. brings up the point it may be easier do decide without a veteran Hall of Famer like Peyton Manning in the building. C.J. also doesn’t foresee Lynch winning the job in training camp.

C.J. and Paul Klee jump into some NBA conversation. The Pacers recently sent a message by firing head coach Frank Vogel.
