One MANS Opinion: Episode 161 – Binging The Broncos Jun 21, 2023

Show notes

It’s that time of year again when Jeff Mans puts all of his offseason work into identifying that one NFL team that will take the league and the world by surprise in 2023. Over the last three years his “buying the Browns”, “chasing the Chargers”, and “digging the Dolphins” episodes have proven to be right on the money and the belief is that this year’s team will be no different. How can a team with one of the greatest NFL head coaches, an all-time franchise QB, a young powerful running back, a significantly upgraded offensive line, a deeply talented wide receiving corps and a top 10 defense be ignored? Jeff Mans believes they shouldn’t be and that is why he strongly recommends binging on the Denver Broncos in 2023.

Also find out why Armando Marsal will win the Football Writer of the Year Award, how Russell Clay plans on beating the sportsbooks this year and if Tyler Buecher will leave Mans high and dry after winning the $3 million grand prize in bestball this season.

One MANS Opinion: Episode 156 – No Privacy May 17, 2023

Show notes

There is a very big misunderstanding in the world right now and that is the belief that we actually have any privacy.
