Colin does "Fake Questions, Real Answers" (3:00) on who's to blame for the Colts botching the Carson Wentz situation, why the Seahawks are in the beginning of a prolonged downturn, why the Cardinals should extend drama-Prone Kyler Murray, and why Westbrook isn't made for the megawatt spotlight of L.A..

Then, the Action Network's Chad Millman tells Colin if he's sharp or square with his NCAA Tourney title pick (18:00) and which teams the sharps are targeting. They also run through NFL futures, including Russell Wilson MVP odds, Broncos Super Bowl futures (31:00), and if there's betting value with the Commanders after adding much maligned Carson Wentz (34:00).
