Disappointing Start To the Season... or Week 2 in the NFL - 9/13/17

We've got news to react to as Week 2 in the NFL kicks off. David Johnson, running back for the Arizona Cardinals, needs surgery on his wrist and will be out at least 8 weeks (could be more).  We bring in Dr. Jones (not a medical doctor), the Cardinals SuperFan, to react. He sees doom and gloom in the future for the Cards. Much of the season will be riding on the re-signing of Chris Johnson. He's not interested in one of those Patriots running backs (Pod had to ask). 

At the 19minute 26 second mark, PodVader talks with Jess Root (@senorjessroot on Twitter), site editor for CardsWire.com. He doesn't see doom and gloom, but things did just get more difficult. Carson Palmer is certainly going to need to play better than he did in Week 1 for the Cardinals to have a shot at anything this season. This team has won before David Johnson, and can again. Watch for Andre Ellington to be a key part of that. 

At 30:13, PodVader talks fantasy football with Chris Schubert (@ChrisRSchubert), cohost of The Keepers podcast from FanRag.com. Both gentlemen are part of the BlogTalkRadio Fantasy Football Expert League, but only one of them was a winner and the other was not. Don't worry, you'll know who the winner was pretty quickly in this one. 

Then at 41:42, James (Texans) and Cody (Bengals) break down the matchups for Thursday Night Football between Houston and Cincinnati. It was a disappointing Week 1 for both these teams - so only one team is going to feel alot better about themselves after this game.
