Afternoon Drive

The Nuggets blew out the Trailblazers, as they hold on to the #5 seed in the West. This game also featured the return of Peyton Watson who had missed the last 19 games. Yesterday was also only the 12th time the Nuggets have had a full lineup this season. Will how the Nuggets play defense determine if they win a title? Now that Watson is back, does this make you feel any better heading into the playoffs? Plus, Justin Fields could be named the starting quarterback in 4 straight seasons with 4 different teams, if he starts in Week 1 for Kansas City. Is this an impressive stat or a dubious stat and what would the two teams look like if the Broncos had taken Fields over Surtain in the 2021 draft?
