  • Good show, slow down!

    Great content but Geoff — slow down! You “eat” your words all the time and it’s hard to understand what you’re saying.

  • Show used to better…

    Geoff brings a great player perspective but Marty is the weak link. He either can’t or won’t be critical of people he has worked with during his career. I understand that he is probably still friends with many former colleagues BUT you are in media and your job is to be critical. Listening to Marty gives the impression that the Carolina Panthers and anyone who came out of the organization (front office, coaches, or players) are at the top of their professions with the accolades to back it up. Gr... more

  • Love this pairing

    Love love love Geoff Schwartz as the host now for the GM shuffle. He's not only a great host, he also is a great football mind being an ex player, knows what he's talking about and has an opinion. Absolutely love it. He can now show us on two different podcast why Geoff Schwartz is smarter than us. Lol

  • Show has become a joke

    Honestly not worth a listen. Don’t waste your time… seriously sad because this used to be my favorite podcast I would listen to every show, sometimes more than once because Lombardi would actually teach the listeners and provide insight. Now it’s just another joke. TERRIBLE AND TRAGIC

  • One of my favorites

    Geoff and Marty are a great pair. Geoff’s description of Nick Sirriani’s purpose on the sideline had me laughing so hard I almost had to pull over. Keep up the good work, gentlemen.
