The Nat Coombs Show

It’s bonus podcast time as we have a special show for you with a former Super Bowl Champion & a key player in the UK NFL scene & a big Patriots fan. Firstly, former Pats line-backer Rob Ninkovich stops by to tell us exactly what he thinks of his former team's new look, whether Newton is the right man to take them forward, what it takes to be a Patriot & what areas they need to improve on to challenge in the AFC. Then Gridiron managing director and author Matt Sherry joins us to chat his new book ‘Any Given Sunday’ which is an amazing read and Nat gets to hear some of the great stories that went into making it before the guys discuss some of the great Patriot coaches and what makes them iconic! 

1:55 - Ninkovich; Sherry - 27:00.

What a weekend of NFL action & what a pod we have lined up for you as established NFL journalist & broadcaster Nicky Bandini joins Nat to break it all down. They start by looking at another excellent SNF & another excellent performance by Aaron Rodgers before celebrating Russell Wilson & the Seahawks offense. What a game it was between the Bills & the Rams and Nicky is keen to let everyone know how good Josh Allen is despite the apparent haters.

Then it’s time to focus on some of the performances from Week 3 that were notable for all the wrong reasons. The Falcons, Trubisky, the NY franchises & Carson Wentz all did their best to earn the prestigious title of ‘Biggest Loser from Week 3,’ but who did Nicky pick as the worst of the bunch?

SNF - 1:30; SEA/DAL - 11:30; LA/BUF - 18.50; Atlanta - 28:00; Trubisky - 31:40; Wentz - 36:30.
