The lads look at the players currently making a name for themselves across the US, where their careers could go and whether Ireland could be on the verge of producing its next NFL superstar. They also discuss the Aer Lingus College Football Classic and the impact events like it can have on the growth of American football in Ireland, before turning their attention to Bill Belichick and what his presence in Ireland could mean for the game. Finally, the trio look ahead to the possibility of another NFL game at Croke Park and ask when we could see the league return to Irish soil.
