The show will feature a mix of familiar faces, including hosts Jamie Erdahl, Peter Schrager, and Kyle Brandt, along with newcomers Akbar Gbajabiamila and Sherree Burruss. Gbajabiamila, a former NFL defensive end, returns to NFL Network after a three-year stint as co-host of CBS’ daytime show The Talk.

In other NFL news, one team executive has come out publicly to criticize Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen, calling him “one of the more overrated players in the NFL.” The exec cited Allen’s tendency to make mistakes, including his inability to win at the line of scrimmage and his tendency to lock on to targets. While Allen has thrown for over 4,000 yards and 29 touchdowns in the 2024 season, he has also thrown 47 interceptions over the past four years.

“He’s underdeveloped at winning at the line of scrimmage, tends to lock on to targets, more of a thrower than precision passer, forces throws into traffic,” the exec said.

Despite the criticism, Allen remains one of the top quarterbacks in the league, and his talent and willingness to take risks are what set him apart from other players. However, until the Bills win a Super Bowl with Allen at the helm, he will continue to face criticism and skepticism from fans and pundits alike.
