Show notes

At the league meetings, Peter asked 10 NFL head coaches to answer the same question: What would you tell a mother who is trying to decide if she should let her child play football?

And Tennessee coach Mike Vrabel on getting the Titans job despite having a poor statistical year in his only season as a coordinator in Houston in 2017, on the type of team he wants to field in Tennessee, on how he doesn’t want to treat Marcus Mariota different than his other 52 players, and on what he takes from mentor Bill Belichick into his head-coaching shot.

Les Snead, LA Rams GM & Dan Orlovsky, Former NFL QB turned Analyst Apr 04, 2018

Show notes

Rams GM Les Snead on why the young general managers in the game are trading so much more than than their predecessors did, on why the Rams have been so aggressive in this off-season, on how much he has learned from GMs in other sports, and, with the Odell Beckham trade rumors swirling, whether he thinks the Rams still might have a big move left in them this off-season.

Former NFL quarterback turned quarterback analyst Dan Orlovsky predicts the order that this year's QBs will be drafted and explains why he's not sold on Josh Allen or Baker Mayfield based on what he's seen on film, and why it doesn't make sense that Josh Rosen's intellect is being framed as a downside.

FOX NFL reporter and "Good Morning Football" host Peter Schrager on whether he thinks Odell Beckham Jr., will be traded, on what he thinks the trade value might be, on where he thinks Beckham could be going, and on the possible reason for UCLA coach Jim Mora to say his player (Josh Rosen) should be picked after his arch rival's quarterback (USC's Sam Darnold).

Show notes

Bears coach Matt Nagy on his strange path to the job--from unhappy Pennsylvania realtor eight years ago to NFL head coach today, on what he thought of Mitch Trubisky before the 2017 draft, on what he thinks of Trubisky now, on his plans for making Trubisky great, and on the awesome responsibility that comes with sitting in the chair George Halas and Mike Ditka once occupied.

Quarterback mentor/tutor Jordan Palmer, the personal coach for Sam Darnold and Josh Allen, on which NFL quarterback Darnold reminds him of (it’s a vivid picture), on the business of making good college quarterbacks better (it’s part mental, part physical, part emotional), on why he thinks Allen is going to be a great NFL problem-solver, and where he thinks they’re going in the draft.

Show notes

Gotham Chopra, the creator of the documentary series, "Tom vs. Time", on whether he thinks family or team-related reasons will cause Tom Brady to cut his career shorter than he ideally would like, on how he convinced Brady to give him the access to do the six-part documentary, and on his takeaway about the reported tension between Brady and coach Bill Belichick.

Broncos beatwriter Nicki Jhabvala on the reasons why the Broncos didn’t wait for Kirk Cousins and instead jumped into signing Case Keenum before free-agency began, on the future of once-prized rookie quarterback Paxton Lynch, and on the importance of former coach Gary Kubiak in the decision to go with Cousins.

Matt Patricia (Detroit Lions coach), Josh Allen (Wyoming QB) and Mary Kay Cabot (Cleveland Plain Dealer) Mar 07, 2018

Show notes

Detroit Lions coach Matt Patricia on his long and winding road to an NFL head-coaching job (including turning down a lucrative job as a nuclear engineer for a $5,000 small-college job coaching the defensive line), on just what is up with the ever-present number two pencil behind his right ear, on the confusion/missed-call on the winning Eagles' touchdown in the Super Bowl, and on what he takes from Bill Belichick into his new job.

Wyoming quarterback Josh Allen on the adjustment from mid-level-college quarterback to the mayhem of being a top prospect in the NFL draft, on why he thinks he won't be a 56-percent passer (his college completion percentage) in the NFL, and the lessons he takes from growing up on a family farm--and doing farm work--in California.

Cleveland Plain Dealer Browns beat reporter, Mary Kay Cabot on 28 long and mostly losing years covering the Browns, on how she deals with covering a losing team in such an intensely rabid football town, and on the fired coach who took his fate the hardest of the eight fired men in her 28 years on the beat. (Hint: It wasn't Bill Belichick.)

Mike Mayock (NFL Network) and Todd McShay (ESPN draft analyst) Feb 28, 2018

Show notes

NFL Network’s Mike Mayock, on the eve of the NFL Scouting Combine, on his quarterback pick in a murky quarterback crop (hint: Mark Sanchez U.), on why he would ignore the recent spate of top running backs taken on days two and three of the draft and take Saquon Barkley of Penn State in the top five, and, in general, giving an educated primer to the 2018 Draft class.

ESPN draft analyst Todd McShay on the NFL skepticism on UCLA quarterback Josh Rosen, on the way Baker Mayfield reminds him of Brett Favre, on his belief this quarterback crop has been bashed too much in the wake of some mediocre 2017 season by the passers in the draft, and on the quarterback this year who makes some throws “that’ll make you want to puke.”

Frank Reich (Indianapolis Colts) and David Carr (NFL Network) Feb 21, 2018

Show notes

Indianapolis Colts coach Frank Reich on the process of putting a game plan together (which he did for Eagles coach Doug Pederson the past two years), on the research that goes into finding new plays and keeping what you call fresh, and on the future of offensive football—where it is headed, and what kind of imagination it will take to stay ahead of the defense.

NFL Network analyst David Carr—the first overall pick in the 2002 draft, and the older brother of Oakland quarterback Derek Carr—on how he thinks Derek will mesh with new coach Jon Gruden, on whether he ever looks back at his career and wonders what if he didn’t get picked by an expansion team and thrown into the fire immediately with the Houston Texans, and the secrets to doing TV analysis of such a complicated game.
