We talk stat nerds, weeklies, and Arif's newest piece in the Guardian, found here: https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2026/sep/30/jameis-winston-new-york-giants-nfl

The long, dark, off-season is done. We're here to discuss our teams, and then talk about Ben Sasse's very stupid blog "America Needs Its Boys to Play Football"  which can be found here: https://www.wsj.com/opinion/free-expression/america-needs-its-boys-to-play-football-5b9673de

We review week 10, begin our arson investigation into the Las Vegas Raiders organization, then end the episode with an X's and O's heavy discussion about why Seahawks @ Rams might be the best game of the season with implications for the future of the NFL.

We're discussing weeks 8/9 and the trade deadline. For off-field discussion including a very funny reelling of all the times Donald Trump tried and failed to get into the NFL, check out Patreon.com/60MinuteDrill, our premium ep this week is a good one.

We review the new SumerBrain football LLM with predictable results, then talk about week 6. Sorry for the delay, both Ed and Arif have been traveling out of the country but we're back.

Arif has moved from Dublin to London as his coverage of the Viking's international games continue. We discuss the history of NFL games abroad and the enormous logistical, political, and monetary costs associated with bringing NFL games to the international community.

Ed is out for the week, so Arif and Caleb discuss week 2's games. Part two of this episode (to be released soon) discusses media conflict of interest surrounding the NFL with some inside baseball from Arif's experience working in the industry. Find it soon at www.Patreon.com/60MinuteDrill

It's good to be back. As a little treat for waiting, this is two episodes in one. First, we talk about week one with the normal barnyard animal sounds you're used to. About halfway through, we pivot and get into everything that's gone awry with the NFLPA in the last year, what it means for the upcoming CBA, and more. If you love us, www.Patreon.com/60MinuteDrill will be available for an extra weekly dose of football. If you merely tolerate our odious presence, you are in the right spot. Thanks for being here.

Arif and Caleb flew to Vegas to record this at Ed's house, it was a ton of fun. We reminisce about the season, talk about the game, the ads, and discuss what's next for the pod as off-season hell finally begins. THANK YOU for listening. This was a lot of fun and we are grateful for all of you tuning in. Have no fear, more episodes and extra content are still on the way. Take care!

Ed is out for CES, so Arif and Caleb are manning the ship alone. From 0:00 - 26:00 we discuss a few pieces Arif has written about why black coaches statistically have worse interviewing, hiring, and employment outcomes; the Rooney Rule, and ways the NFL has improved (and some ways they have gotten worse) in these areas. 26:00 - we lay out all the vacant HC, GM, and coordinator positions, rank them by desirability, and try to predict who might end up where. Follow Arif at www.wideleft.football to read the pieces we discuss here and more!

0:00 - 36:00 Ed and Caleb do a post-mortem on their seasons, we break down why the Seahawks moving away from Geno Smith doesn't make sense unless you're a Madden GM, and various other goofs. 37:00 - We discuss the Aaron Rodgers documentary. Spoilers: it sucks!

We are back after a little holiday break. This week: Ed Zitron is a Fantasty Football Terrorist, we debate on the strongest player the three of us could beat in a fight, then do a bit of a season post-mortem.

Another casual episode, we review week 13 and talk about potential playoff scenarios. [email protected] Linktr.ee/60MinuteDrill
