Club Dub - Football Podcast

Call us self indulgent, but this week the synopsis is a little different due to the fact we made over 3 seasons to our 100th pod! If you've joined us along the way, then the hour of listening ahead will contain the usual high-tempo NFL jibber-jabber you've become used to, if you are finding us for the first time then jump on in as we recap Week 12 and look ahead to the monster ties that make up th...

So this week there’s the usual high level of striking high quality content listeners to the Club Dub Podcast have come to expect, all the recaps and all the predictions you know and love…..but wait, as a Thanksgiving bonus, there’s even more… With Week 12 being a week where Quarterback controversies have reared their heads, we ask who has made the right call – and who might be kissing their season...

Jets fans have had to be patient, mighty patient, in their long wait to taste NFL success, but one member of the greatest contributors in podcasting has used this week’s pod to tell you….the wait is finally over! Not only that, but the Jets crowning moment will come in Week 11 battling on the gridiron with an old familiar foe in the shape of the man who has kept them in the shadows for so long, no...

In the NFL (much like life) there is never any guarantee of success, what might look so good on paper may not always materialize when you see the cleats hit the turf. But if there is one thing an NFL fan knows, it is that the teams that make things happen often possess that most potent and important of footballing ingredients, the Franchise Quarterback. This week, in our ‘Recap’ and ‘Pick-em’ comb...

This week marks the mid-point of the NFL season, so far some teams have racked up the wins, but in our Pick ‘Em show this week we will focus our time on a number of teams who have found ‘dubbyas’ harder to come by. The Arizona Cardinals are one such team, so we break down how a team filled with all that fire-power is 3-5 – and more importantly what it could mean if Geno Smith and the Seahawks roll...

Halloween may be over, but the NFL’s shocks and scares are not. Trade deadline day can be joyous or painful for the NFL fan…you may follow one of those few teams who think they are a contender and bring in players that they hope are the final missing piece…but if the season is already not going your way, you may have this compounded by having to watch star-talents walk out of the door, leaving you...

Podcasts, they're a bit like buses.....you wait for ages then two come along at once.   With Rob on his hollibobs this week (HolliRobs? #trademark) this week means Aldren has to don the cape and swing into action as host with JB as his trusty side-kick - but fear not, rather than dumbing down, we're doubling up - with the re-cap and pick-em pod combined into one jumbo sized Club Dub extravaga...

There’s one thing having a team improve, put on a show and prove wrong some doubters – but far more of a challenge for those teams trying to get ‘over the hump’ is heading on the road as favourites and getting the job done against quality opposition. This week both the Giants and the Jets find themselves in this unfamiliar position, so at the Club Dub Podcast Rob and JB could not miss the opportun...

Help me out here…..if every week we are having shock results, upsets and surprises…how long does this need to go on until we can’t consider these results a surprise anymore? In the fantastically entertaining week-to-week league that is the NFL, this week we saw the New York teams keep up their momentum with another pair of statement wins, the Falcons put on a show against San Fran and the hapless...

So, you know that thing we do where we do two pods, one on a Tuesday and the other on a Thursday….well, that’s not happening this week as Rob was being prodded and poked all in the name of medical science earlier this week, but fear not! Your Thursday pod is a two-in-one as we recap week 5 and set up your week 6 in one all-encompassing monster double-bubble episode. This week we review whether the...

This week we were looking forward to a London game with a difference, the first time one of the games on our shores pitched two teams against each other with winning records.  Just when you could sense the drama was increasing, fate dealt us UK fans a rough hand - with New York's Footballing Giants having to potentially turn to a 3rd string QB or pick one up from the Free Agency pile - and all whe...

London was the home of the double-doink on Sunday, as the crossbar and post combined to leave Saints prayers unanswered and leave Captain Kirk and his supporting crew beaming. The Vikings may have left the big plays at home in the first half, but it’s funny how the wins disguise the issues the losses only amplify. But New Orleans were one of a host of teams who have seen early season optimism repl...

If the old phrases goes that a Leopard cannot change it's spots, well what chance of the NFL's tigers changing their stripes?   This week the Bengals will be doing that quite literally, debuting their new all white uniforms - but will the change extend to a change in fortunes as the league leading Dolphins roll into town?  Loose metaphors and dodgy omens aside, one member of the pod certainly thin...

Week 3 was the week where Primetime fell rather flat, but like any great trick - while all eyes were on Sunday and Monday Night Football, the real magic was to be found in the Sunday games. For those watching you would have seen the Bengals-bounce-back against the Jets, the Panthers fans have their prayers answered by the Saints and the Jags suddenly turn from basement dwellers to aiming for the s...

Week 3 is the week when good starts can become streaks, and those in the basement of the league can be left with a mountain to climb just to get back to .500! So this week we get to debate which are the more interesting matchups - the battles of the highflying 2-0 teams, or the battles of the desperate teams at 0-2 ....and as if that wasn't enough of a debate, we throw in a 1-1 duel with the Lions...

How do you recap that?   It was stories and action everywhere you looked this week as the NFL hit the heights and delivered a slate of absorbing games. Top of the pile might just have been the rampant Dolphins offense toppling the explosive Ravens...or was it the Jets flipping the script against the Browns.....or the cardiac Cardinals leaving it late in Vegas....the Bills and their ever quick...

Week 2 feels like a time where wrongs are made right and the cream can often rise to the top.  This week is a week full of potential redemption narratives, but are there any more feisty than those that involve long standing rivalries?  This week debate turns to Green Bay and whether A-Rod will steady the ship for the Cheese-heads doing what he does best - beating the Bears, or whether now is the t...

Week 1 is almost always unpredictable, so how on earth can we be reeling from so many shocks! Despite the unpredictable nature of the NFL's first slate, some things were certain, the Seahawks would struggle after losing Russ, the Steelers were staring down the barrel without Big Ben and an NFL storyline was already written that saw Baker Mayfield right a wrong and make the Browns pay.....right? Ad...

Hi everyone in listener-land.  Thanks for joining us for the first episode of Season 3 of the Club Dub Football Podcast! This week our Terrifying Trio are back doing what they do best - picking winners to usher into Club Dub.   Amazingly amongst the games selected this week there is the small matter of Baker Mayfield leading the Panthers against his former employers in Cleveland.  S...

Guess who's back?  If your guess was three of the four podcasters you rely on for your regular dose of NFL chat...you're a winner (edit, you are all winners). The guys are here to deliver contrasting news.....firstly the sad news that even the low bar that was the Pre-season is now a shadow of its' former self - but also the amazing news that as the Pre-season draws to a close that can mean o...

Hi all….did you miss us? Another offseason break navigated and the guys are back. This time breaking down the big news that has seen QB’s and Wide Receivers getting paid! But – alongside a bumper pod jam-packed with news, there is also time for three quarters of the 'Fearsome Foursome' to make some crazy predictions…. So, if the Bengals were last season’s surprise package, just who will we see mak...

Welcome everybody. So the NFL world may not be a wash with breaking news and high drama right now, but that doesn't stop three of the Fearsome Foursome doing their podcast thing. Filling the void usually reserved for NFL news, this week the guys are going to dig out one of the ultimate sports bar topics....just who do you think has what it takes to win the Superbowl? We may be many months aware, b...

Welcome back everyone to your (currently) fortnightly dose of NFL Off-Season jibber-jabber courtesy of the ‘Fearsome Foursome’ on the Club Dub Podcast. After some quiet weeks, the league was shaken by the announcement that 4 time Super Bowl Champ Rob Gronkowski has decided to hang up his cleats following a stellar football career. As well as the guys sharing their memories of Gronk, you'll also he...

Guess who’s back? The Fearsome Foursome promised they’d be recording again when there was news….and this week news there was, as Aaron Donald becomes the highest paid (non-QB) in NFL history. Even with this show-shopper of a news story headlining, really the pod is little more than a love-letter to Club Dub favourite Ryan Fitzpatrick – who retired this week. His gutsy play and amazing antics will...

So, in a slow news week with the 'Fearsome Foursome' trimmed to a 'Terrifying Trio', what on earth is there to talk about?   Well the answer is only the topic every listener wants to hear!  Who of last year's basement dwellers are primed for a Bengals-esque leap to being Superbowl contenders? Before you cry 'none' it is time to hear the guys out, as they create compelling arguments for t...
