Episode 78 of Who’s Got The Ball? sees James and Shane rank their Top 10 quarterbacks in the NFL, leading to plenty of debate over who truly deserves to be considered elite in the league right now.

The lads discuss the biggest risers in the NFL, controversial omissions from the list, and which quarterbacks could dominate the next few seasons.

In football, attention turns to the Premier League where West Ham’s relegation becomes a major talking point, while Sunderland qualifying for Europe leaves everyone stunned. There’s also a deep dive into the ongoing chaos at Chelsea and what exactly has gone wrong at Stamford Bridge. The lads finish up the football chat by previewing this Saturday’s Champions League Final clash between PSG and Arsenal.

With Gan Seans and the Power Rankings now finished for the season, the lads switch things up by predicting five transfers they believe are DEFINITELY happening during the summer window.
