  • Love it!!!

    Great explanation of football from a fan’s perspective and they are really funny too when ever I listen to it I find myself laughing out loud. I highly recommend if you want to know what is going on around the league but not in to much detail.

  • My favorite NFL podcast

    Matt, Drew, and Billy are a lot of fun as they go through all the games of the week maybe knowing less than me about what they’re talking about. Add in a few Abdullah the Butcher references, and what’s not to love?
