Pushing the Pile: A CBS Sports NFL Podcast with Kyle Long & Mike Renner

My question is about TJ and JJ Watt. I know that at his peak, JJ is probably a top 2-3 dlineman of all time, but how close are we to acknowledging that TJ might end up with the better overall career. Tj has a dpoy, has won the sack title in 3 separate seasons, and tied Strahans record in less than 16 full games played. Since Big Bens elbow exploded in 2019, we only win when TJ literally gifts our offense the ball in enemy territory. TJ leads the league in forced fumbles by a mile since coming into the NFL and is only 24 away from the all time record which isn’t that far fetched when he gets 5-7 a season. Obviously JJ has 3 dpoy, but I would argue that TJ should have at least one more (he has finished in 2nd twice and 3rd another time), but I think JJ winning 3 has actually hurt him bc of voter fatigue. What do you guys say? When we look back who will the better Watt be?

I tend to like ex-players commentary and analysis. Kyle is smart and insightful with a balanced viewpoint on the NFL. He also comes across as a genuinely nice person. I agree with other reviews that say there is a lack of chemistry between the hosts. I think Renner gets caught in the trap of trying to be in the smartest guy in the room. He pulls it off sometimes but mostly he appears to be snarky and dismissive. Speaking of which, Pete Prisco is so negative and sarcastic that I just can’t listen to him. I will keep listening in the hope that the show will evolve into something more humorous and congenial.

No offense to these hosts but this show is so dry and boring. Pic Six Podcast was so fun to listen to and as a loyal cbs podcast listener I’m really struggling to listen to this new show.

I listen to numerous football podcasts and pick six was the best one. Really disappointed it got replaced with this. The super friends provided much better content and energy!
