Go Long

It doesn't make sense. How does an NFL cornerback last to age 39? Terence Newman detailed his rise from Salina, Kansas to Go Long in this week's Q&A conversation at the newsletter. (Hint: Red wine helps.)
We highlight a handful of clips from that interview here on the podcast.
Newman shares a Bill Parcells story, finds out his ex-teammate Marion Barber has died in real time (sharing a chilling firsthand story) and relives some Vikings heartbreak.

I figured we'd try something new here on the podcast. When we drop our Friday Features over at GoLongTD.com, I'll be sure to include a 15- or 20-minute preview here on the podcast with a few clips from the players profiled.
Today? New York Jets slot corner Michael Carter II. This is the sort of player New York will need on its road to relevancy. Carter discusses the sense of optimism around the team, his upbringing and why he's confident in quarterback Zach Wilson.

Go Long is on the road. We're spending a few days in Minnesota getting to know those Minnesota Vikings, so why not talk shop with Purple Insider's Matthew Coller? We discuss the direction of the Vikings under new coach Kevin O'Connell and conduct a state of the union of sorts on the NFC North.
You can read Coller's excellent work over at his Substack: Purple Insider.

OK, so they're voluntary. But couldn't those new Packers receivers benefit from their MVP QB being at practice? We disagree on this matter.
There's a ton of Lamar Jackson talk this episode. What a fascinating situation. The Ravens want to keep their former MVP long term, but what's going on behind the scenes? More than meets the eye.
Then, there's Jordan Poyer. The Buffalo Bills would be wise to pay up. He's too valuable.

The Super Bowl odds are out. The Buffalo Bills lead the way. We offer our own Super Bowl favorites on this episdoe of the podcast, and -- surprise, surprise -- it's all about the quarterback. Co-host Jim Monos has a swell idea, too: Teams should hire scouts who only study the quarterback position year 'round.
I love those Joe Burrow-led Bengals in 2022 despite what history tells us about Super Bowl losers. Monos is high on the Chargers.
And we launch a new segment, taking your most ridiculous questions. It is a hoot. Tired of people budging their way off airplanes? We have a solution to change the world.

We welcome on an old college friend, the great Conor Orr of Sports Illustrated. He's done extensive reporting and writing on all things Cleveland Browns, so we get around to that. But first, all three of us must reminisce with our best Doug Marrone stories and why his old OC at Syracuse, Nathaniel Hackett, has been such a rising star.
Also, we apologize deeply for the rough audio. The problem has been fixed for future episodes!
