2019 AFC season preview Jul 17, 2019

Show notes

We're only days away from the first NFL training camps opening up from rookies, so Charles Robinson and Terez Paylor are back in action with their full team-by-team season preview.

Today they tackle the AFC and give their worst-to-first predictions for every division. They start with the lowly AFC East, which could easily feature two of the league's worst 5 teams (5:35).

Next they move to the AFC South, one of the more confusing divisions where every team has a case (even a slim one) to make the playoffs (19:15). Later they tackle the AFC North, where there are some disagreements on the hype surrounding the Cleveland Browns and the addition-by-subtraction potential for the Pittsburgh Steelers (35:05).

Charles and Terez wrap up with the AFC West, where the Kansas City Chiefs look poised to beat their demons and challenge the Patriots yet again for an AFC title (50:30). They end the show with their predictions on who will take the AFC crown (1:10:05).

Optimism season: which teams should be hopeful right now? Jun 26, 2019

Show notes

The beginning of summer marks the beginning of a different kind of season in the NFL: optimism season. It's the time of year where every local paper is reporting how even the most injury-prone veterans are looking spry and how every rookie QB is learning the playbook like a Bradley Cooper in Limitless. Terez Paylor and Charles Robinson break down optimism season in the NFL and which teams have a reason to be cheery this time of year.

Even the Kansas City Chiefs have something to be optimistic for as a decision regarding Tyreek Hill's playing status looms closer. In the absence of criminal charges, some within the organization are hopeful that a league suspension could be very short. Terez outlines the latest on the Hill situation and why the NFL could still issue a pretty major punishment (1:30).

Moving to the rest of the league, they run through which teams should be hopeful, including the Cowboys, every team in the NFC West and even snakebitten franchises like the Jaguars, Redskins and Giants (9:55).

Charles and Terez later run through all eight of the last-place teams from last season and try to predict which one could make the playoffs this year (25:30). That leads into a discussion about the Buffalo Bills, Josh Allen vs. Lamar Jackson, and the legacies of Jim Kelly and Dan Marino (34:45).

One of the slowest stretches of the NFL season saw some rare social media pyrotechnics courtesy of two former stars.

Charles also reports on what he learned from visiting the OTAs of the Raiders (33:50) and 49ers (40:20).

Reliving the bombastic and extremely problematic 'Any Given Sunday' Jun 11, 2019

Show notes

It's the dog-days of June, arguably the slowest point of the NFL calendar. So this week, after the success of their podcast decimating the 2014 Kevin Costner nightmare, "Draft Day," Terez Paylor and Charles Robinson are adding a second chapter to their football movie review series with the 1999 Oliver Stone opus, "Any Given Sunday."

With enough cursing and nudity to make Quentin Tarantino blush, Charles and Terez recap the nearly three-hour film, Jamie Foxx's surprisingly competent performance as QB Willie Beamen, what the film completely gets wrong about professional football and the moments that it gets strikingly right about the NFL and the lives of its players and coaches.

Show notes

The 'Game of Thrones' finale is finally here and some fans are...less than enthused. Much like the fans of the New York Jets!
