  • Excellent Breakdowns

    Grant and Logan do and excellent job breaking down the opponent for the coming week and then the game after it’s okay. I always feel smarter about football after I listen!

  • More Paulson!!

    Really enjoy this podcast. Logan’s insights and perspectives are quite insightful. And yet another of my go-to podcasts with Grant as a host! My podcasts are becoming all Grant all the time, but in a good way. 😂 (oh, wait, you don’t like that emoji)

  • So much better with Grant and Logan

    Updated to five stars. Logan is the expert. Grant is the beat reporter. That’s the right dynamic. No need for the reporter to pretend to be the expert.

  • Good analysis

    Logan is 5 stars.

    New cohost is major upgrade. Got sick of hearing prior trying to sound smarter than the former player.
