It’s a jam-packed Middlekauff Mailbag on this episode of 3 & Out as John answers your biggest questions from around the NFL and college football. John starts by discussing whether football fans have begun to forget just how dominant Travis Kelce has been, and why one down year—or changing narratives—shouldn’t overshadow one of the greatest tight ends the NFL has ever seen. He also tackles the age-old question of great players getting wasted by dysfunctional organizations, examining why elite talent alone isn't enough to win and how poor ownership, front-office decisions, and coaching can derail even the most gifted careers. Plus, John weighs in on the growing trend of successful college coaches making the jump to the NFL. What translates, what doesn't, and which coaches are truly built to succeed at the professional level? Also, John breaks down the New York Giants' expectations heading into the season. Are they ready to take the next step, or are expectations getting ahead of reality? All that and much more on this edition of the Middlekauff Mailbag, only on 3 & Out.
