Prepare for another wild ride on this weeks episode of the Breaks-down as we unpack the latest NFL dramas, dissect the MLB Trade Deadline, and delve into the basketball universe.
Get ready to dive into the unfolding situation with Jonathan Taylor and his request to be traded from the Colts. We also discuss Joe Burrow’s calf injury and the Sean Payton beef with Nathaniel Hackett (can’t hack it)/ Russell Wilson’s role with the Broncos. (We also talk about how Russ is low-key fat but no one talks about it). Not done yet, we also get into an in depth conversation about Zach Martin’s contract situation, and how contracts don’t mean a thing in pro sports anymore.
We don’t stop at football. Find out about the MLB trade deadline, Ohtani’s potential value, and Aaron Judge’s much needed return. For hoops fans, we talk about the implications, or lack thereof, of the largest contract in NBA history awarded to Jaylen Brown by the Celtics.
For the meat of the episode, we did a Power Ranking of all the divisions in the NFL. It was one of our best segments yet, so don’t miss out!
As always we finish up with Awards and Last Take Worst Take. The awards in this episode were the Dumb and Dumber Award; the My Sweet Prince Award; the Jerry Jones Award; and the Lincoln Riley Award. As always, you’d never guess who these are going to.
We leave no stone unturned in our quest to bring you the most engaging, up-to-date sports conversation. Don't miss out on this comprehensive, in-depth analysis of the sports world. Please enjoy Episode 15 of the Breaks-down!

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
