Four-time Super Bowl winning quarterback Joe Montana and Chicago Bears defensive end Montez Sweat join the show for interviews on how the NFL has changed on and off the field. Sweat discusses what it was like to have HBO cameras following him around throughout training camp for the “Hard Knocks” series, and Montana weighs in on the ascendance of his two former teams, the 49ers and Chiefs.

Plus, CBS Sports and Yahoo Sports analyst Adam Breneman discusses the structural changes in college football and why it should move toward a nationally organized system, such as the recently proposed super conference idea.

Also, the Miami Dolphins are selling shares at a huge valuation, MLB helmet ads turn heads, and the NHL season begins in Prague.
