In this episode of Missing the Point, hosts Dave Clarke, Mike Marcangelo, and Bob Kelly tackle two of the most talked-about trades of the NFL season: Davante Adams’ shocking move to the New York Jets and Amari Cooper’s arrival in Buffalo. They analyze what these trades mean for both teams, asking if Davante Adams can elevate the Jets' offense and if Amari Cooper can be the missing piece for Josh Allen and the Bills as they aim for a Super Bowl run.
The conversation then shifts to the New England Patriots, where rookie quarterback Drake Maye made his debut. The hosts break down Maye's performance and debate whether the Patriots can rebuild around him for the future. Can Maye develop into the franchise quarterback that New England desperately needs, or are there deeper issues with the Patriots’ coaching and roster that need addressing?
With insights into the Lions, Cowboys, Ravens, and Texans, the hosts explore how the NFL's top teams are performing at the halfway point of the season. From injury concerns to playoff aspirations, this episode covers everything an NFL fan needs to know.
