    0-for-3: Cardinals, Chiefs, and Broncos Close Out Preseason Week 3 (opens the original)

    Read excerpt

    Teresa Blaes flies solo this week (Mischelle is off and back next episode) to break down a rough weekend — all three teams lost, but for three very different reasons.

    Teresa Blaes opens Season 5 flying solo (Michelle is out this week) with an update on what’s coming to Blaes and Gottsch: more podcast episodes, more articles, and a new weekly power rankings series that will shift week to week throughout the season.
