We also pick our top 10 Wide Receivers, where there is a lock out for the top two, but then the...

A review of all things Week 10 in the NFL, from early punt blocks to last second Hail Marys. In the news, DeAndre Baker is released from his robbery charges, and is looking to re-enter the NFL. In the Week 10 action, it's all about a last second Hail Mary from Kyler Murray to DeAndre Hopkins, who catches over 3 Bills defenders, to take a win over Buffalo, who had scored only seconds earlier. The S...

Week 9 in the NFL season and it was a case of the best verse the rest as Pittsburgh take their undefeated season to the struggling Dallas Cowboys. Dalvin Cook might just be the best Running Back in the NFL, where Minnesota Vikings have finally become the rush based offence they always should've been. The Bills take on the hopeless Seahawks defence, and are able to stop Russell Wilson from cooking....

Week 8 is in the books and Steelers continue to show the best defence in the league, and have Lamar's number again, with a tight win over the Ravens. The Packers have a week to forget as Dalvin Cook runs through them, whilst the Seahawks steam roller the 49ers who have a Sunday to forget. All week 8 games covered, from Thursday night with the Panthers and Falcons, to Monday where the Buccaneers be...

In a week where Antonio Brown returns to the NFL with Tampa Bay Buccaneers, what does this mean for the leagues most All Star offence. The Seahawks lose, in a classic game against Arizona, the Steelers keep on winning, this time against the Titans, and the Patriots struggle again, against a 49ers team that are beat up but scheming brilliantly. Whilst the NFC West might be the strongest in football...

Week 6 is in the books, so we talk about the hyped battle between the GOAT, Tom Brady, and the BOAT, Aaron Rodgers, which was won by the defence of Tampa Bay. The NFC East remains an absolute dumpster fire, with New York Giants getting their first win and now only a win behind the being in the Playoff position. All the weekends games and major action points covered.

A special edition of the show, as we are in conversation with Nat Coombs from the Nat Coombs Show (available on all pod catchers) where we discuss the state of NFL in the current climate, being an NFL fan in the UK, physicality in the game and also 4th and Inches had to bring up Philip Rivers didn't he.

Week 5 and another week disrupted by COVID. Dan Quinn's time in Atlanta has ended. Where next for the a team that expects more? Whilst it was great to see Alex Smith back for Washington Football Team (in a way) it was genuinely sad to see Dak out for the season for Dallas Cowboys. The Chiefs lose their 100% record, but the Seahawks carried on winning, although this time making it a bit hard.

Bill O'Brien is finally fired by the Houston Texans as both GM and Head Coach, although who saw him going before Adam Gase and Matt Patricia. Was Bill caught by a tough schedule, or more a consequence of his power grab. Kansas City and Green Bay continue to be excellent, the teams in New York struggle, whilst Dallas are involved in yet another shoot out, and come out in second place. It's Power Ra...

Week 3 of the NFL season, and whilst there are less injuries this week, COVID rears its ugly head again, after an apparent outbreak in Tennessee. All the games covered this week including: Kansas City Chiefs won the Monday night game against the Baltimore Ravens, who seem to be kryptonite to Lamar Jackson. Seahawks overcome Dallas in a game of some pulsating offence, and baffling bad defence. The...

Week 2 of the 2020 season will be remembered mainly for the amount of injuries that a lot of talented players received. Saquon Barkley, Christian McCaffrey, Courtland Sutton and seemingly half the 49ers now face weeks out, or an early end to the season. In play, the Chiefs sneaked an overtime win over Los Angeles Chargers, who had a new face at Quarter Back, whilst the Falcons find new ways to blo...

Week 1 is here, so whilst we try to avoid any first week overreactions, it's hard to not to think that the Jets may be the worst team in football at the moment, and the Jags and Washington Football Team getting wins may be outliers on a perculiar season. Brees and the Saints overcome Brady and the Buccs, in a win that left more questions than answers. The Packers look on top form in overcoming the...

The new season kicks off in a couple of days, so we look at who we expect to do well, and who may have taken steps back this off season, so: Can the Dallas Cowboys take control of the NFC East for once? Can the Vikings or Packers take the North? Will Tom be able to help Tampa Bay overhaul New Orleans? Can the 49ers go one step further this year? All this, and 16 NFC teams are considered as we look...

The new season kicks off in a couple of days, so we look at who we expect to do well, and who may have taken steps back this off season, so: Can the Ravens take regular season form into the Post-Season, or will the Steelers return to the Post-Season? What next for the Patriots in post Brady times? Can the Titans build on a really promising season? Who can stop the Chiefs? All this, and 16 AFC team...

The season gets ever closer, so we're going through the latest news, including Earl Thomas is cut, but where could he end up 77 false positives COVID and the implications for the NFL crowds in Florida

Latest News and Reviews of all things in the NFL Patrick Mahomes signs a mega deal Washington to change their name Olivier Vernon restructures deal Dak's contract We also look back at the latest draft class of QBs, and compare them to the 2018 selections, who have so far had a mixed response

After we looked at who would be boom or bust in the AFC, it seemed only fair we'd also look at the NFC. Will the Buccaneers lead the way in the South, or will the Saints continue to dominate, can the 49ers avoid a Super Bowl hangover, and will anyone from the NFC East get to the Playoffs? Also Cam Newton was joined the Patriots, in an eventful few days for the team. Is this the player the team nee...

We can't ignore the Black Lives Matter protests, so we start with a discussion about this and how NFL are dealing with it. We also discuss Don Shula who sadly passed since we last recorded, and which players and teams could be boom or busts in the AFC.

Joe Burrows went first, Washington got Chase Young, Miami got Tua, Giants took a Tackle and it seemed a rather sensible draft, until Green Bay got involved. What does this mean for Aaron Rodgers, and who had a good draft, and who else took leave of their senses?

What started as a pre-draft analysis, into who should be taken early, who are the leaders at each position is changed slightly, when news comes through of the return of Gronk, when he is traded to Tampa Bay to be reunited with Tom Brady. Should the Bengals pick Burrows, who is the best player in the Draft, any trades or surpises we can see. All this, plus we debate the chances of the season taking...

It's that time of the year where we get to play GM, and Griff gets to unleash his inner Commissioner, and we have a go at what we would do with the first round of the NFL Draft. Who makes the right trade, who picks savvy, and who takes a reach...knowing previous years, Paul might do all three.

The next chat as Free Agency claims some big names. Cam Newton released Todd Gurley signed Kyle Allen traded Gostkowski released Who has had the best Free Agency so far, who still needs work doing? Recorded over Skype due to the current COVID-19 crisis, this is not as good sounding as useful, but we continue to try to entertain and inform in the current climate.

Those of us able to, recorded something to mark the signing of the new CBA and the start of Free Agency. What next for Tom Brady, who has signed a new superstar, and just what is Bill O'Brien and the Houston Texans playing at?

The big game is now in the record books and Kansas City Chiefs, and Andy Reid come away with the plaudits and the ring. San Francisco 49ers and Kyle Shanahan leave with questions over Jimmy G and the offensive play calling, but is that right? We discuss referee calls, closing your eyes on an intercepted pass, a mistimed tweet, Shakira and J-Lo put on a great show, and trusting your QB. As well, we...
