The Simms Top 40 QB Countdown keeps rolling with 5 more passers revealed, right after Chris gets some eggs cracked on his head (1:20). Then the latest NFL news: How does Gerald McCoy fit into the Panthers defense (5:14)? Is Todd Gurley headed down the same path as Calvin Johnson (9:17)? Then reacting to your Twitter questions, Chris breaks down the Ryan Fitzpatrick Cycle (13:08). Speaking of Fitz, why will he and Josh Rosen be memorizing words like "topper" and gotti" this offseason (18:20)? Then, the highest backup QB on the countdown lands at #31 (25:08). It took a while, but Chris finally has had it with the excuses for Eli Manning (29:10). Ahmed puts Simms through a round of "Is he younger than Lamar Jackson?" (32:04) Marcus Mariota enters the countdown (40:14), and Big Phil Simms joins to give his thoughts on the Titans QB (46:31). And while plenty of fans are against the NFL expanding to an 18-game schedule, Phil explains why he would embrace it (50:05). Finally, we cap the episode with the last QB of the day, who will have to hold off a first-round rookie this summer (1:11:35).
