The third hour of Monday’s show consisted of the fellas talking more Broncos and the rookies expected to make a splash come training camp in July. They talk Adam Gotsis replacing Malik Jackson on the D-Line as well as the punter competition between veteran Britton Colquitt and rookie Riley Dixon.

The guys then talk more in-depth about the quarterback position and spent some time comparing numbers between Peyton Manning and Brock Osweiler last year and came to the conclusion that there really was no visible difference between the two’s play on the field.

The third hour wrapped up with some thoughts on who will replace Brady at QB during his suspension and their estimate on how long the Rockies will hang around the playoff race.

OT kicks off with Mike diving back into his conversation with Patrick Saunders this morning about his thoughts on the Colorado Rockies, the pitching, and their success so far.

Mike then moves on to the discussion he had earlier in the morning with Troy Renck where the guys mutually agree that rushing Paxton Lynch into the starting QB job is not the best idea for him or the team. 

Mike closes Overtime by taking some fan texts about Paxton Lynch and when he should move into the starting role.
