  • Think I may stop listening

    I like you guys but you don’t bring any real knowledge, and you complain about reactionary fans but that’s what you were for the draft. Especially Mitch. You don’t like a WR cause he’s shorter? Unfortunately, Mitch is just spewing opinions So I’m not learning anything. Too bad Rich is gone. He had knowledge and inside info.

  • Great show, terrible audio levels

    I am a longtime listener and huge fan of the show. Audio quality is atrocious. I swear JP finds the noisiest places possible and sets his mic at least 10 feet away for every show. Also wish they’d stop fixating on the branding. We get it guys, you still call them the R words and want the old imagery back. Move along.

  • Are used to love this pod, but not great understanding by Mitch.

    Listen to Doc Walker, or Brian Mitchell, Kliff was a huge problem. Last year the O was good because the NFL didn’t figure it out. This year they did. Kliff made no changes and is stubborn and put his quarterbacks in harms way. The fact that you can’t see that makes me think that you don’t really get it. I wish Rich were still here. Another voice of logic.

    And there were no player development because Kliff wasn’t using the players that AP brought in correctly. That’s been shown. I think we’re go... more

  • Mitch is awful

    Mitch Tischler has a background in tv production, not broadcast journalism, and it shows. The guy can’t get names right, stumbles through sentences, and is often wrong about information. He also just has some terrible takes.
