The Dan Patrick Show is broadcasting in full pads on Tuesday. Dan will break down the Steelers-Broncos Monday night tilt, and hit all the big stories around the NFL with an outstanding guest list.

Also, Oregon reinstates LeGarrette Blount, Allen Iverson is rumored to be considering retirement, and the MLB hot stove is starting to percolate.

Here is the expected rundown:

Tony Gonzalez: The Falcons star talks about adjusting to a new team this season, and the recent melee with the Redskins.

Larry Johnson: The former Chiefs running back will talk about his future plans. Will anyone pick him up after Kansas City waived him?

Peter King: The SI writer discusses the Steelers-Broncos Monday night game and checks in with the playoff race at midseason.

Cardinals quarterback Kurt Warner joined the show to discuss his wild two weeks. Warner threw five picks two weeks ago against Carolina, and then threw five touchdowns this week against Chicago.

"I have no idea how good we are," Warner said.

Warner said that he didn't feel like he played that poorly in the loss to the Panthers. He said he's played worse.

Warner said that the Cardinals offense isn't clicking like it did last season. He said the defense has carried them in certain games. Warner thinks the offense has a lot of time to improve.

Warner also talked about how much respect he has for the Colts' Peyton Manning. "I don't think he gets enough credit for his arm strength and his ability to make certain throws," Warner said.  Warner said that the key difference between him and Manning is he can't make the throws a quarterback like that can make.

Warner commented on Brett Favre's success this season. Warner said that Favre can feed off all the talent in Minnesota and then step in and make the plays he needs to to come away with the win.

Dan and Kurt got into a very interesting conversation about James Harrison's interception touchdown in last season's Super Bowl. Dan explained why Harrison was in the spot he was -- he saw something in film. Warner didn't know about that. Warner thanked Dan for keeping him humble.

There were several worthy candidates, but Dan chose the Cincinnati Bengals for this week's Got it Done Award.

The Bengals beat the Ravens 17-7 to improve to 6-2. This is a Cincy team that no one predicted would be any good. The Bengals beat up the tough Ravens and now are in position to possibly capture the AFC North.

Alabama's Mark Ingram AP

CBS college football commentator Gary Danielson stopped by to discuss the big issues in college football. 

Danielson has one major issue with Heisman voting.

"Anybody who votes before championship Saturday ... that vote should be thrown out," Danielson said.

Danielson said that he guesses Alabama running back Mark Ingram is the front-runner, but it's still wide open.

Danielson said that Colt McCoy and Tim Tebow are still very much in contention for the Heisman.

Danielson also weighted in on our poll -- what should Jon Gruden do next year?

"I don't like the Notre Dame job if I'm Jon Gruden," Danielson said. Gary said that Gruden would be frustrated because he wouldn't be able to draw the best talent to South Bend. Danielson thinks Notre Dame needs to join a conference.

Danielson thinks Jim Harbaugh will be the hot name in college football circles next offseason, and could be a strong candidate for Notre Dame. But Danielson thinks that Harbaugh will have lots of options, including the NFL.

Danielson thinks that Notre Dame needs a somewhat gimmicky offense. Danielson likes Cincy's Brian Kelly and Georgia Tech's Paul Johnson because they can run unorthodox offense.

Dan also pointed out to that Kurt Warner became the first quarterback since Danielson to throw five interceptions in one game and five touchdowns in back-to-back games.

Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski, whose ninth-ranked Blue Devils open their regular season Friday against UNC-Wilmington, called in and spoke about the upcoming hoops season.

Dan asked Coach K about Syracuse's shocking 82-79 loss to Le Moyne -- a Division II school -- in last Tuesday's exhibition game at the Carrier Dome.

Krzyzewski said you can't read too much into exhibition results, no matter how bad the outcome may appear on the surface. He said coaches frequently try out things they wouldn't try if a game "counted."

"You never know what a coach is doing in an exhibition," Krzyzewski said. "Is he disciplining somebody? Is he trying out a new lineup?"

The legendary Duke coach said you really shouldn't worry too much about Syracuse's ability to bounce back from the loss.

"I think Jim really has as good a demeanor as how to bring a team along as anybody," Krzyzewski said. "He never gets really high or really low about anything."

Soon the conversation turned to Tyler Hansbrough, the former North Carolina star who Duke fans won't miss going up against.

"We're talking about one of the truly great players in the history of the ACC and therefore college basketball. Nobody played harder than that kid," Krzyzewski said.

When asked whether this year's Blue Devils can be a "great" team, Coach K hesistated. But he does believe they have what it takes to go far ... as long as they stay healthy on the perimeter.

"We have a chance to be very good," Krzyzewski said. "I like my guys a lot."

The NFL will review yesterday's Redskins-Falcons skirmish. Scott Cunningham/Getty Images

Mike Florio of ProFootballTalk.com called in during the 9 o'clock hour to talk about the happenings around the NFL in Week 9 so far.

Florio first spoke about yesterday's Redskins-Falcons game, when Atlanta coach Mike Smith and Washington's DeAngelo Hall -- a former Falcon -- got into a skirmish along the sideline.

"It wasn't quite a Woody Hayes thing," Florio said. "It just is the kind of stuff you don't want to see a head coach engaging in."

Florio said the NFL will look at video of the incident on Monday and decide whether to repremand either the coach. He said the league can't look the other way on Smith because they've always cracked down on players so hard.

Even if they don't repremand Smith, Florio said, you may see the NFL's competition committee address the incident during the offseason.

Florio also talked about the Packers' loss to the Bucs -- calling it the low point for the Packers in the post-Favre era -- and the Giants' gut-wrenching loss to the Chargers on Philip Rivers' last-gasp touchdown pass.

McLovin is stuck in traffic and should be in soon ... but this red line spells trouble.

Another exciting weekend in pro and college football. Cardinals quarterback Kurt Warner, CBS college football analyst Gary Danielson and Profootballtalk.com's Mike Florio will talk pigskin. And Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski also joins the show.

Here are some of the big storylines we'll be talking about on Monday:

-- Iowa suffered its first loss of the season, falling to Northwestern, and ending its national title hopes.

-- Alabama beat LSU on Saturday to improve to No. 2 in the BCS standings.

-- TCU moves up to No. 4 in the BCS Standings. Can the Horned Frogs sneak into the national championship game?

-- The Bengals are proving they're for real. Cincy beat Baltimore 17-7 on Sunday.

-- The Saints came from behind once again to beat Carolina and remain undefeated. The Colts edged the Texans and also are without a loss.

-- The Chargers' Philip Rivers threw a last-minute touchdown to lead San Diego to a crucial win over the Giants.

-- The Bucs wear the creamsicle throwbacks and get their first win of the season, shocking the Packers.

After the Yankees won, Patrick "Seton" O'Connor flew the banner proudly. If you look at his monitors, that's actually a photo of him pegging McLovin' (me) with a dodgeball as part of our World Series bet. Good times.

David Stern AP

NBA commissioner David Stern joined the show to discuss the state of the league. Here are some of the highlights of the interview with the commissioner.

-- Stern said they can't do anything about Tim Donaghy's book. He hasn't read the whole book. "I have read the excerpts that were on Deadspin," Stern said.

Stern said the one thing that he already takes exception to is the idea the league mandated officials alter the outcome of games. Stern said that's just not true.

-- Dan asked Stern if he wants LeBron James to stay in Cleveland or go elsewhere. "I believe as a system, that it should favor the incumbent team in re-signing the player, whoever that player is," Stern said. Stern said because of that, he'd like LeBron to stay in Cleveland, even if that's not necessarily the popular choice.

-- Stern said the NBA has no intention of expanding immediately. He does think that some day they might very well have a team overseas.

Stern said any theory about revenue sharing does include the option of contraction. "But that doesn't seem to be a realistic option," Stern said.
