Slightly better than the good, the bad, and the ugly
The great: The GM show. Longtime NFL reporter moderates longtime GM. Lots to learn from them. The good: Chase Daniel's show. Insight from a recently retired NFL player who made his rounds in the league. The ugly: Robert Mays and Nate Tice. Mays is an unentertaining talking database of DVOA, PFF, and "trumedia" stats.
