Although we planned on spending most of Wednesday talking about Derek Carr’s chances of beating Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs, somehow most of the attention turned into the prospect of Davante Adams being traded from the Las Vegas Raiders.

Oh, and somewhere from the cracks, the Carr and Dennis Allen haters crawled out and had plenty to say on a spirited Dattitude Podcast (Ep. 288) presented by Evangeline Securities. We also discussed the potential of what might happen if Alvin Kamara doesn’t sign a deal with Saints before the end of this fiscal season.

Also, Jim brought back the ‘Extra Point’ to share his disgust of Pete Rose dying before he was enshrined into Baseball’s Hall of Fame, and it was ‘Wednesday’s with Gabe Henderson’ X2, as Gabe had thoughts early in the show and on Rose.
