Before we do that, we highlight one of the most impressive athletes in the country who is playing with a serious disadvantage. From the NFL, the Browns saw Sanders first action, and it did not go well. Sam Darnold threw FOUR interceptions and the Seahawks somehow kept it close. JJ McCarthy almost pulled off another second half comeback versus the Bears. Josh Allen did something that only Josh Allen could do, scored 6 total touchdowns. The Packers almost fell victim to Jameis Winston, and every other game from Week 11. If you love talking sports, this is the show for you, so come on into Cowart's Corner!
