Join hosts Jack and JD as they discuss the stories behind the stories: the news and controversy happening that week off the field, as well as making predicitions for the week ahead.

Jack Terry · 3:00 PM

Good morning JD! How we doing today?

Jennifer "JD" Arbuckle · 3:00 PM

Hey Jack...Good Morning...

Jennifer "JD" Arbuckle · 3:00 PM

I am fab!!

Jack Terry · 3:00 PM

Let's jump right in. Justin Blackmon, already suspended indefinitely? Arrested last night on marijuana possession charges!

Jennifer "JD" Arbuckle · 3:00 PM

Yes, he's been problematic since OSU

Jack Terry · 3:01 PM

This probably means done for the year, plus their other WR is looking at four games suspended. If you're a Jacksonville Jaguar fan, you might want to find another sport to follow this fall.

Jennifer "JD" Arbuckle · 3:02 PM

Jacksonville is definitely in trouble but they weren't much to contend with last season...mediocre at best

Jack Terry · 3:03 PM

Always have been. Speaking of mediocre, six teams last year were a perfect 8-8, including the always dysfunctional Dallas Cowboys.

Jennifer "JD" Arbuckle · 3:03 PM

The Cowboys have pulled.500 seasons for 8 years!!

Jennifer "JD" Arbuckle · 3:03 PM

America's team?? I think not...

Jack Terry · 3:04 PM

It's impressive. Here's how bad the Cowboys are. ESPN scheduled a training camp special featuring them, and they were too dumb to schedule any practices that day!

Jennifer "JD" Arbuckle · 3:04 PM

That sounds lIke Jerry Jones for sure!

Jack Terry · 3:05 PM

The NFC East as a whole is a mess, probably the weakest in the league. It's not going to be who's best, but who is least worst, and this year I think that's the New York Giants.

Jennifer "JD" Arbuckle · 3:05 PM

Well they better a rabbit out of a hat...the Giants,

Jennifer "JD" Arbuckle · 3:06 PM

Eli Manning isn't happy with the program right now and without him...they are in big trouble...

Jennifer "JD" Arbuckle · 3:06 PM

You're right though of the NFC East, they look more promising than most

Jack Terry · 3:07 PM

They have a new offesne they're learning. They manage to do that and it should be good for 5 victories in their division alone. Plus their AFC opponents are the AFC East, another mess, not including the New England Patriots.

Jennifer "JD" Arbuckle · 3:08 PM

the Pats...former crewn jewel of the AFC...no longer the dynasty they once were and that will continue this season...Brady needs to consider retirement before he gets sacked by a monster and hurt.

Jack Terry · 3:08 PM

More than Brady their season rides on Gronk staying healthy. The rest of their division is weak.

Jack Terry · 3:09 PM

Look at the New York Jets. Geno Smith vs Michael Vick? Neither one of them can lead a team for a full season.

Jennifer "JD" Arbuckle · 3:09 PM

Their offensive line at one time was one of the best in the NFL but no longer...Tom brady was sacked so much last year!!

Jack Terry · 3:09 PM

He was crushed. And the more he gets hit the slower he gets.

Jennifer "JD" Arbuckle · 3:09 PM

Neither one of them can lead a dog on a leash...both of them! No pun intended Michael Vick

Jack Terry · 3:10 PM

HA!

Jennifer "JD" Arbuckle · 3:10 PM

Geno Smith was a great disappointment

Jack Terry · 3:10 PM

I think the conference to watch is the NFC North. I got a feeling that's going to be the most competitive.

Jennifer "JD" Arbuckle · 3:10 PM

He was amazing at West Virginia

Jennifer "JD" Arbuckle · 3:10 PM

Don't discount the AFC West

Jennifer "JD" Arbuckle · 3:11 PM

Oakland Raiders have high hopes of being a playoff contender this season

Jack Terry · 3:11 PM

Most "star" college quarterbacks are because of the math. 150 D-I schools with 80 players a team vs. 32 NFL teams with 53 players means a very good college player is an average NFL player.

Jack Terry · 3:11 PM

The Raiders? I can't take any team whose #1 player is the kicker seriously!

Jennifer "JD" Arbuckle · 3:11 PM

And some become amazing, talented NFL players.

Jennifer "JD" Arbuckle · 3:12 PM

Oh I don't take them...believe me but they are working very hard toward a new program

Jack Terry · 3:12 PM

Some do, most don't and the learning curve is steepest for QB's. Linemen often make the transition quickest.

Jennifer "JD" Arbuckle · 3:12 PM

ESPN and Bleacher Report expect more from Oakland than in past seasons.

Jack Terry · 3:12 PM

Actually in the AFC West I have the Cheifs as one of the two AFC wild card teams.

Jack Terry · 3:12 PM

How can you not expect more? They can't play any worse!

Jennifer "JD" Arbuckle · 3:13 PM

Absolutely!!! Jamal Charles just signed a pricey extension!!

Jennifer "JD" Arbuckle · 3:13 PM

Thank goodness the cap was there...

Jennifer "JD" Arbuckle · 3:13 PM

Room in the cap rather...

Jack Terry · 3:13 PM

2nd highest paid RB in the league. Only concern is he personally counted for 35% of their offense last year. That's a big burden to carry.

Jennifer "JD" Arbuckle · 3:13 PM

The loss of Brandon Albert i s going to effect KC substantially.

Jack Terry · 3:14 PM

Yeah but Andy Reid knows what he's doing

Jack Terry · 3:14 PM

Speaking of star QB's what say you about Johnny Football?

Jennifer "JD" Arbuckle · 3:14 PM

I think Andy Reid can make a diff...in only one year look at the turn around!!

Jack Terry · 3:14 PM

I watched him for years with the Eagles. The man knows the game.

Jennifer "JD" Arbuckle · 3:14 PM

the Cleveland browns made a good pick with Manziel but is he a starter?

Jennifer "JD" Arbuckle · 3:15 PM

Once again...college transition to NFL isn't always pretty

Jack Terry · 3:15 PM

He almost has to be by default. No one else there has done the job. I don't think it's their year yet though. Too much D in that division.

Jack Terry · 3:15 PM

You go from playing against boys to men.

Jennifer "JD" Arbuckle · 3:16 PM

Steelers...thoughts since we're talking this division

Jennifer "JD" Arbuckle · 3:16 PM

Has big Ben got another winning season in him?

Jack Terry · 3:16 PM

I got the Bengals this year. Last year they were top 5 Off/Top 10 Def, and a 12-4 record.

Jack Terry · 3:16 PM

He needs to have one, but he's getting long in the tooth.

Jennifer "JD" Arbuckle · 3:17 PM

I was just about to say that...the Bengals are the sleeper there...and they arent sleeping

Jack Terry · 3:17 PM

That might be their downfall. There will be pressure to perform this year. Can they handle it?

Jennifer "JD" Arbuckle · 3:17 PM

Back to the Browns for one second...at least they aren't looking at starting Weeden!!! Thank you Dallas Cowboys!!

Jennifer "JD" Arbuckle · 3:18 PM

What a sad acquisition that is...

Jack Terry · 3:18 PM

I know! They finally cut the ungrateful Orton, but that means it's Romo, Wheedon and then ???? Jon Kitna?

Jennifer "JD" Arbuckle · 3:18 PM

How about Kaepernick and the 49'ers

Jennifer "JD" Arbuckle · 3:19 PM

Talk about long in the tooth...Kitna is done...put him on the practice squad.

Jack Terry · 3:19 PM

He's great but here's what most people don't pay attention to with the 49er's and the Seahawks. Offense good, but defense? Unreal! Seahawks ahd #1 defense in three categories, and the 49er's were in the top 5. Those defenses collapse and those teams

Jack Terry · 3:20 PM

I honestly don't know if Kitna is still playing. I think they signed him out of retirement two years ago.

Jennifer "JD" Arbuckle · 3:20 PM

Okay so let's go north...Detroit Lions with Fitzpatrick at the helm...thoughts?

Jack Terry · 3:20 PM

And Arizona has a good team, but not for that division. If they were back in the NFC East they would win it.

Jack Terry · 3:21 PM

I have Detroit as a wild card, not because of who's throwing but who's catching: Megatron and Golden Tate.

Jennifer "JD" Arbuckle · 3:21 PM

The Cardinals??? Really...I don't see them able to go .500...

Jennifer "JD" Arbuckle · 3:22 PM

Now there are some fantasy receivers!!

Jennifer "JD" Arbuckle · 3:22 PM

toss in Dwayne Bowe and you've got a team!

Jack Terry · 3:22 PM

Exactly!

Jack Terry · 3:23 PM

I think the Lions threaten the Packers and the Bears end up on the outside looking in.

Jennifer "JD" Arbuckle · 3:23 PM

With the loss of Dexter McCluster, KC is going to struggle with receivers also...he was instrumental in their success in 2013 and many seasons prior.

Jack Terry · 3:23 PM

Which is even more pressure on Charles. For them to win he's really going to have earn that new paycheck.

Jennifer "JD" Arbuckle · 3:23 PM

And the vikings? Inspiration for the popularity of ZOMBIES!!

Jack Terry · 3:24 PM

They make the Jags QB situation look good. The Vikings are toast.

Jack Terry · 3:24 PM

So it's never to early. You ready for my predicitions?

Jennifer "JD" Arbuckle · 3:24 PM

And no stadium!!

Jennifer "JD" Arbuckle · 3:25 PM

they are playing at the U of M for the next three season while the new stadium is built...outside football in Minnesota??? Insane!

Jack Terry · 3:25 PM

Dress warm!!

Jennifer "JD" Arbuckle · 3:26 PM

No kidding!! Yes...Let's hear your predictions

Jack Terry · 3:26 PM

AFC: Patriots, Bengals, Colts, Broncos with Chiefs and Titans WC. NFC: Giants, Packers, Panthers and 49er's with Lions and Saints as WC.

Jack Terry · 3:27 PM

Broncos over Pats, 49er's over packers, and Peyton hoists the trophy at the end of the year.

Jennifer "JD" Arbuckle · 3:27 PM

I'm wiht you on most of that...Not sure about New Orleans...getting a little slow on the scramble these days

Jennifer "JD" Arbuckle · 3:28 PM

As a Chiefs fan...I can't stand that but you are very likely right about Manning and the Broncos

Jack Terry · 3:28 PM

And then I think he pulls an Elway and retires.

Jennifer "JD" Arbuckle · 3:29 PM

If he's smart, and he is, that is just what Peyton Manning will do...go down a chamion and then become a part of the INdianapolis colt program

Jennifer "JD" Arbuckle · 3:29 PM

His heart is in Indy

Jack Terry · 3:30 PM

I think he goes even smaller and does high school. Just gets out of the limelight.

Jennifer "JD" Arbuckle · 3:30 PM

I don't know...we'll very likely see in about a year.

Jennifer "JD" Arbuckle · 3:31 PM

Nice tawking with you this morning, Jack! I can't wait for the 2014 NFL season to begin!!

Jack Terry · 3:31 PM

me neither. Let's do it again next Thursday!!

Jennifer "JD" Arbuckle · 3:31 PM

You bet!! It's a date and GO CHEIFS!!! Have a great day!

Jack Terry · 3:31 PM

You too!
