In this episode of Inner coverageThe “dream trio” of Jason Fitz, Jori Epstein and Frank Schwab prepares you for the start of NFL Training Camp.
The show begins with Brandon Aiyuk’s trade request, which everyone recognizes the San Francisco 49ers probably won’t grant. Jori explains how and why the 49ers can keep Aiyuk even beyond this season, while Frank tries to come up with a good trade package and a team that might be willing to offer him.
After talking about Jori’s favorite cities to visit in training camp, the group wonders when the Patriots will start Drake Maye at QB and if Justin Fields can overtake Russell Wilson as the Steelers starting QB.
In a new segment called “Two Things Could Be True,” the gang discusses how the Chiefs might be a better team but not have a better chance to win the Super Bowl, why the Jaguars had to overpay Trevor Lawrence, who will the Cardinals have the highest-scoring offense in the NFL (but not improve their record), how the Eagles can fire their head coach or be a Super Bowl favorite, and why Jim Harbaugh was the right hire for the Chargers (even though the Chargers are not good this season).
