There should be a segment that recalls the Hits and Misses of overreactions

[mochabean]

That Sam Darnold take is an all-timer for this podcast! ALL TIMER!

[nathanchildress]

It took decades for football media to figure out the perfect format for insane hot takes. Chris Brockman is an artist.

[gh_]

Brockman's dead-serious face pitching the Darnold overreaction was solid gold.

[donnafarmer]

Sam Darnold himself said that his year with the 49ers is what has elevated his skilset. He specifically cited Brock Purdy as the one from whom he learned the most.

[HawgWyldFishing]

If Carr has scored on 15/15 drives this season, that means the Cowboys defense managed to stop a grand total of 0 Saints drives. That’s more problematic than an offense only scoring 19. Scoring 19 is only problematic if you defense makes 0 stops and allows 40 to get put up on them.

[geordiejones]

The back and forth with the Saints was amazing. Rich is such a class act.

[ryansteckstor]

Boys i look forward to this seg every Monday. Keep up the good work

[FuzzyHuggs]

Y'all, Purdy did a hell of a lot better than people are giving him credit for: 319 yards, a 78% completion rate, and a QB rating of 102. He has those stats despite the Niners having the worst separation percentage over any team through two games, and Purdy has had to throw into tight coverage 25% of the time, which is 6% higher than any other quarterback. The dude is making it work.

[ZeFluffyKnight]

I've liked Darnold his whole career, and that Darnold take blindsided me hard. Well done.

[danielaaron]

Imagine the uproar for the loser of week 3 Ravens Cowboys game.

[whiskey..]

That Sam Darnold take was absolutely hilarious, that's up there with Skip Bayless saying Johnny Manzel would be the greatest QB of all time.

[alfirst]

There is only Rich Eisen. No one else matters. I love Overreaction Monday!

[coltsfan]

Chris refusing to stop yelling "Belichick watch" while calling for his head every game for the previous three seasons is the most Patriots fan thing I've ever seen.

[unforgivenkd]

Oh the switch up from Brockman regarding the saints. Gotta love it! At least he standing on it now.

[natelengeman]

Idk why everyone is surprised with Minnesota. They made a run last year with a career 3rd string QB

[iamalan]

Are they saying that Baltimore opens the season 0-3?!

[BigRaji]

Rich the cowboys choking was not a surprise for anyone other than cowboys fans 😂

[Bradum]

Re; tjhe Ravens
"The offensive line needs work..."
Understatement of the year.

[thewarhammerguy]

I remember when Brockman was like the saints are gonna fire their head coach by thanksgiving and Rattler will start 😂
