  1. Pod: Super Bowl LX Recap!

    Pod: Super Bowl LX Recap!

    SAN FRANCISCO — Defense rules again. Mike Macdonald and the Seattle Seahawks suffocated the New England Patriots from the jump. Gaining yards — period — was quite the adventure for Drake Maye, Josh McDaniels and an overwhelmed Patriots offensive line. (Sound familiar?) After Seattle’s 29-13 win in Super Bowl LX, I wrote this column on Sam Darnold. His stoicism is an inspiration for all. And give it up to this relentless Seahawks defense. Once again, teams across the NFL will try to find their own bodies to dominate the line of scrimmage. This was a thorough beatdown. Here’s a quick solo podcast recapping the game before heading to my redeye flight east. Miss any of our features and pods from Super Bowl Week? Links are below. And thank you for subscribing and supporting all season long. Go Long is thriving because of you. There is no offseason here. We’ll be examining everything behind that NFL curtain over the next seven months. * Sam Darnold, Super Bowl LX and the power of stoicism * ‘Tough son of a b***h:’ The Lessons of Sam Darnold * Rare Hawks: Why Ty Okada & Jake Bobo embody the Seattle Seahawks * Predictions! * Pod: SI’s Conor Orr on Super Bowl LX & Ahman Green on the Green Bay Packers * Q&A: Seahawks QB coach Andrew Janocko on the ‘resiliency’ of Sam Darnold * Real Football: Seattle Seahawks-New England Patriots Super Bowl LX Preview! * Carlton Davis: ‘I feel like it’s going to be another surprise win’ * Southern Comfort: Patriots’ gator-huntin’ rookie Will Campbell is 1 of 1 * ‘It’s incredible:’ Super Bowl LX’s roots are in Ron Wolf’s Green Bay Packers * Pod: Stevie Johnson has a PSA for Buffalo Bills WR Keon Coleman! * Best Super Bowl storyline?

    Pod: SI's Conor Orr on Super Bowl LX & Ahman Green on the Green Bay Packers

    SAN FRANCISCO — Good morning! Welcome to Super Bowl LX. We’ll bring you all the action live from Levi’s Stadium inside the app. To get you primed, here’s a pair of conversations on the podcast. First up, I’m joined by my good pal Conor Orr of Sports Illustrated. He wrote one of the best stories you’ll read this week on Mike Vrabel and the Patriots coach’s obsession with C4 energy drink. We offer our final thoughts on everything Patriots-Seahawks and tell tales from San Francisco. The Shure mic drops halfway through, but Conor’s excellent takes endure! Bear with us. On the back half of this episode, I catch up with the Green Bay Packers’ all-time leading rusher on Radio Row in San Francisco: Ahman Green. Green fills us in on everything going on in his life these days. He’s in the midst of a cleanse. Then, we dive right into the Packers’ brutal playoff loss to the Chicago Bears at Soldier Field. Green has many sharp critiques. Matt LaFleur and his crew will need to do some soul searching this offseason. I also get his thoughts on the Packers’ workhorse back today. Green is naturally a big fan of Josh Jacobs. Thanks for reading, listening and sharing.

  3. Pod: Stevie Johnson has a PSA for Buffalo Bills WR Keon Coleman!

    Pod: Stevie Johnson has a PSA for Buffalo Bills WR Keon Coleman!

    He still believes. He has (very) high praise for the Buffalo Bills’ embattled young receiver. When in the Bay Area, you know we’ve got to catch up again with Stevie Johnson. We’ve covered his immense impact on both the position and the Bills in 2021, and then welcomed Johnson onto rip-roarin’ Happy Hours in 2022 and 2023. From Radio Row here in San Francisco at Super Bowl LX, I chatted with Johnson on a host of topics… * Igniting a flame in WNY. He saw the need for fun. * How he helped revolutionize the position… with the help of a few friends. Young receivers across the NFL say Johnson changed the sport with his inventive route running. * How he learned to cook Darrelle Revis. * Keon Coleman. How can the Bills receiver turn it on in Year 3? * Separation. It’s been a problem for Coleman, but Johnson sees a solution. * Out is Sean McDermott. In is Joe Brady. We get his thoughts on the state of the Bills. Video and audio is available here as well as Apple, Spotify, everywhere you pod. ICYMI, Go Long also sat down with Brandon Beane and Pete Guelli to guide you through the search for new head coach Joe Brady. Both had a lot to say.

    Real Football: Super Bowl is SET... and Bills HC hunt continues

    The Seattle Seahawks and Los Angeles Rams staged a thriller of an NFC title game. New England trudged through the snow with a tick more precision than the Jarrett Stidham-led Broncos. We dissect both conference title games here on “Real Football” with co-host Jim Monos. New here? Monos was an area scout for the Philadelphia Eagles and New Orleans Saints before spending four seasons as the director of personnel for the Buffalo Bills. We discuss ‘n debate everything you saw on Sunday: Sean Payton going for it on fourth down, the Rams’ special teams disaster, Sam Darnold’s finest hour and Mike Vrabel’s dominant defense. (What a rebuild it’s been.) Of course, here in Western New York, the Buffalo Bills’ search for a new head coach is heating up. They’ve interviewed a slew of candidates, from Brian Daboll to Grant Udinski. A decision could be made soon. After all, whoever’s the new head coach will need to flesh out a staff. What is it like inside these interviews? Monos shares his experiences. Also, we expand on the need for the Bills to sync up Josh Allen with a new coach. It’s crucial. It’s been missing. This entire 74-minute episode is available to paid subscribers. No ads, no sponsors. We’re powered by YOU. Thank you for your patronage.

    Real Football: Sean McDermott is out, Brandon Beane is promoted... now what?

    Crushing playoff losses have consequences in the NFL. Especially when those losses stack up to this extreme. On Tuesday AM, we published this piece on why the Buffalo Bills finally moved on from Sean McDermott after nine seasons. Thank you to everyone who has subscribed and looked back at our three-parter (now unlocked) from December 2023. What a perfect time to record an episode of “Real Football” with co-host Jim Monos. For those who don’t know, Monos served as the Bills’ director of personnel from May 2013 through 2017 after scouting for the Eagles and Saints. He and Doug Whaley led the search to hire McDermott once upon a time. On this episode — exclusive to our paid subscribers — Monos offers sharp perspective on everything. He brings his experience from living a week like this himself and I share some more reporting from sources around the former Bills head coach. We examine all angles of this decision and drive it forward. Urgency is high. Josh Allen isn’t getting any younger, the New England Patriots are back, it was high time for a change at One Bills Drive. Go Long subscribers can access this episode in its entirety above and inside the Substack app. If you prefer to listen on Apple or Overcast, bang it here to sync your account.

    Ty & Bob Pod S4 E18: Chicago Bears finally run out of magic in NFC playoff thriller

    Of course, this one boiled down to more theatrics. These 2025- ‘26 Chicago Bears know no other way. Once again, Caleb Williams made a few mistakes throughout the course of the game. But once again, Caleb Williams supplied a throw for the ages. His touchdown to Cole Kmet at the end of regulation is one of the best our Bob McGinn has ever seen. Here on your weekly NFC North pod, we analyze everything Bears-Rams and look ahead. Year 1 did not go well for Williams but — without question — the young QB accepted Ben Johnson’s hard coaching and supplied hope for the future. This division will be a lot of fun.

    Pod: Drake Maye vs. the Houston Texans 'savages' … who ya got?

    You heard from the Texans defenders. That’s one nickname Calen Bullock, Kamari Lassiter and the gang kicked around. A simple “SWARM” works, too. This week, Drake Maye assured us all in Foxborough that he understands what’ll happen if he tries to escape the pocket to gain yards against this Houston unit. “Those guys, especially at the linebacker level, they’re trying to take your head off. … They tackle the ball carrier hard and they’ll make you pay for it.” There will be blood on Sunday at Gillette Stadium. This is — without a doubt — the greatest test yet for New England’s 23-year-old wunderkind. Let’s welcome back the excellent Phil Perry of NBC Sports Boston to see how Maye and the Patriots will counter the best defense in the NFL. Phil hosts The Next Pats Podcast and co-hosts Tom Curran's Patriots Talk. Absolutely love learning everything we can from Phil. Video and audio is above. You can also catch this episode on Apple, Spotify and YouTube. OUTLAWS: * Part I: ‘We want you to remember when you played the Texans’ * Part II: Why Azeez Al-Shaair and these Houston Texans ‘savages’ seek and destroy Links: * ‘Who’s willing to shed blood?’ Hard coaching makes a comeback * ‘We’re savages:’ The Houston Texans’ defense aims for history * Mark your calendar: Isaiah McKenzie is BACK for an NFL Playoffs Happy Hour * Real Football: Mile High Moment of Truth * Ty & Bob S4 E17: Autopsy look at the Green Bay Packers’ wild-card calamity in Chicago * Hall of Fame pits greats against each other * And then there were EIGHT: On Cole Bishop & Bills D delivering, Caleb/Maye, John Schneider’s mastery, more * Matt LaFleur, the Green Bay Packers and the art of a choke * It’s Year 9. The Bills (again) have the talent to reach the Super Bowl, but will they? This is a public episode.

  8. Real Football: Mile High Moment of Truth

    JAN 15

    Real Football: Mile High Moment of Truth

    Logic points to a Denver Broncos win. They’re the team that’s rested, the team coached by a Super Bowl champ with two weeks to prepare. Playing one mile above sea level is a challenge itself. Let alone when your roster is still banged up. Logic, however, often does not apply to Josh Allen. Bills-Broncos kicks off the divisional round of the NFL playoffs this Saturday. Here on “Real Football,” we take a close look at the matchup. Jon Scott of WGRZ-TV subs in for Jim Monos this week. We get into everything… * Josh Allen’s toughness. It’s the trait nobody discusses nearly enough, but it’s infectious. * Is this Keon Coleman’s shining moment? * The D made the play in the moment at Jacksonville. Can Sean McDermott’s unit do it again? * Brandon Beane’s roster construction. We explored ahead of the postseason. The firepower at receiver is lacking, but the Bills GM evolved the offense for a road trip like this one. * Joe Brady the run-game coordinator vs. Joe Brady the pass-game coordinator. * If the Bills lose, will there be repercussions? * Tony Romo is back to narrate another Bills game. (It was rough last week.) * What do the Denver Broncos do best? Like champs past, they’ve got a pass rush. * Predictions. Thank you for subscribing, listening and watching. The best place to catch all podcasts is at GoLongTD.com and inside the Substack app. If you prefer to listen on Apple over Overcast, bang it here to sync your account. Instructions on syncing on Spotify are also here. My plan here in Foxborough is to talk Patriots-Texans with one of the top beat writers/podcasters in the market today. Keep an eye out for that discussion. Here’s the Ty & Bob Pod on everything Packers-Bears. And Thursday night, former Bills receiver Isaiah McKenzie will hang out with subscribers on a virtual Happy Hour. Of course, we’ll have stories from 1 Patriot Place, too. Subscribers can always access every story and every podcast at Go Long. New here? Current members, thank you sharing the word.
