Hey, look at those Falcons Mar 30, 2023

Show notes

The Calais Campbell signing is interesting. If this veteran -- at this point of his career -- is actively choosing Atlanta, this organization must be doing something right.
Now, the billion-dollar question: Is Desmond Ridder really the guy? They think so.
Here's a quick first look at the Falcons with more to follow once we get Jim Monos back on. Subscribe to Go Long at www.golongtd.com/subscribe to get all content!

Holding back Josh Allen would be insane Mar 27, 2023

Show notes

The Buffalo Bills conversation must continue with the team's head coach declaring that Josh Allen needs to run less. An odd statement, true, but a statement that also aligns with how Sean McDermott has operated each postseason. We explain why the Bills cannot -- and likely will not -- water down their best player's game.
Also, we talk evolution in pro football and why team's need to be open-minded. Look no further than what Tony Gonzalez did to the tight end position... even if it meant nearly getting into a fight with Mike Mularkey. "Blood and Guts: How Tight Ends Save Football" is available everywhere books are sold: https://www.amazon.com/dp/1538723743/ref=cm_sw_r_api_i_J5FZBJ580EKRQE5WQ38E_0
What's Sean Payton's plan in Denver with Russell Wilson? Co-host Jim Monos sees a lane.
And we add another fella to the Worst Person pantheon... Cologne Guy.

Happy Hour: Jamal Lewis would do it all again Mar 25, 2023

Show notes

Jamal Lewis hangs out with Go Long VIP subscribers. To upgrade and join future Happy Hours, bang it here: https://www.golongtd.com/subscribe?plan=founding
Let us know who you want to throw back a beer with and Go Long will track 'em down.
The Baltimore Ravens great may be suffering from scary CTE symptoms today but, as he explains, he'd do it all over again. Lewis was candid on a variety of topics:
Life today. Finding his why. He’s a busy man in Atlanta.
What made those 2000 Ravens so special. Tony Siragusa and Shannon Sharpe usually had teammates in stitches… and the rookie Lewis suspiciously was left paying most limo bills.
His Tennessee Vol days, playing with Peyton Manning and his thoughts on NIL.
The most vicious hit he ever took on the field. (It involves Sean Taylor.)
How football served as his saving grace, his outlet in the Adamsville neighborhood of Atlanta, Ga. The reason for his choppy running style? The field he used to play on was covered in glass.
Reconciling the violence of football. We all were questioning our relationship with the sport when Damar Hamlin nearly died on a field. And here’s Lewis, battling darker thoughts to this day. He explains why he’d still play a decade in the NFL and absorb all the collisions he did.

Go Long x Purple Insider NFC North spectacular Mar 24, 2023

Show notes

This was fun.
I joined Matthew Coller of Purple Insider to dissect everything Vikings, Packers and NFC North. What's the Vikings' plan of attack with all of this roster shuffling? And why is Green Bay so adamant to rid itself of Aaron Rodgers? Is a trade close? Is Jordan Love better than Rodgers right now? We get into everything, including whether you'd take the Lions' steady build or Justin Fields' upside long term.
As always, be sure to subscribe to Go Long at www.golongtd.com/subscribe to get all of our coverage.
You can also subscribe to Coller's exceptional Vikings-centric Substack at purpleinsider.substack.com.

Zaire Franklin will never quit Mar 24, 2023

Show notes

What a life it's been for Indianapolis Colts linebacker Zaire Franklin. He lost both his mother and grandmother before playing a down at Syracuse. Both women made him the man he is today.
Read the full Q&A over at GoLongTD.com, too, if you'd like.
Franklin emerged as one of the best linebackers in the league last season. Problem is, his Colts went 4-12-1. This hour, he opens up on everything...
How both women made him the person he is today.
The moment he nearly quit football, and why that day in seventh grade shaped him.
All of the losing at Syracuse. It served a purpose.
A surreal 2022 season for the Jeff Saturday-led Colts.
What he wants to see out of the Colts’ next starting quarterback.

The Panthers mean business Mar 22, 2023

Show notes

Who separated themselves in free agency? The Jacksonville Jaguars were proof that spending in March can pay off. And across the league, owners and GMs were smart this spring.
Look no further than the Carolina Panthers, a team that wisely spent after acquiring the first pick in the NFL draft.

Analyzing the Buffalo Bills offseason Mar 22, 2023

Show notes

They're very, very close. Here on the podcast, with co-host Jim Monos, we discuss if the Buffalo Bills are taking the right steps toward winning the Super Bowl once and for all. We like their signings. They're adding tough players who'll contribute immediately.
Now, Buffalo just needs a philosophical change.

Meet Trent Sherfield Mar 20, 2023

Show notes

The Buffalo Bills are clearly avid Go Long readers, eh? Last week, they signed Deonte Harty, who shared his story in 2021: https://www.golongtd.com/p/last-month-deonte-harris-nearly-quit
On Monday, Trent Sherfield was added to the wide receiver room. He opened up about his turbulent football life ahead of free agency: https://www.golongtd.com/p/the-trent-sherfield-prophecy
Seems like a swell time to share my conversation with Sherfield here in the podcast feed. What a road it's been. Sherfield was a victim of some good 'ol fashioned NFL politics, as you'll learn. His work ethic is rare, and he proved in Miami what he's capable of.
