Customer Reviews
Potential but SLOW down and THINK
Edit 2: these guys just don’t know football...and they don’t know business or organizational development. From 2 stars to 1. TRIPLING down on my Adam comment. “Fans are not caricatures”. The way you analyze Nagy, Phillips, Pace, etc. is 100% in caricature form. Clearly they have not had success, but neither has this podcast. Seem like low self-esteem commentators who pry off of emotion rather than professionalism. Stop and ask - legitimately - what their strategy is. Are they at the position they are because they’re incompetent? Then what would you think of yourselves? Chill out, guys and think like a professional. Edit 1: Rarely learn anything new unless he is on. “Detroit is bad”, “Texans are bad”. “Bears have a bad team”. No insight or football knowledge at all. What CAN you take from the game? The NFL changes every week. Stop. Think. And add something rather than recycling last week’s podcast Original: JJ takes an objective approach and adds value to the podcast by thinking through the reality of the bear’s situation rather than simply overreacting to the emotions of the game or moment. The same cannot be said for the rest of the cast, except for when Adam joins the pod. There are glimpses of insight from Cam and others but they would benefit from s-l-o-w-i-n-g down, thinking through both sides of an opinion and delivering some actual insight. Will continue to listen, but 3 stars until the group can advance from the emotional reaction of the “drunk guy at the bar” and instead move towards professional/insightful journalism that has actually been thought through before being spewed into the mic. Cheers.
Kenneth has to go
Argued For Fields after the could not get a ham sandwich and a bear for the overrated former Bears QB. Actually a 6th rounder and not 1 team wanted this guy.
Solid podcast, needs work
Kenneth talks to much and he doesn’t understand when Josh or Alex express an opinion, he takes it as “No that’s not what I’m saying”, it can detract a lot.
