Incredible
I’ve never heard such thorough, in depth football analysis!!!! Appreciate it Matt!!
homerish
I love the pats as much as anyone, but this pod has just become too homerish/one sided for me. They do great analysis and they try not to be one sided but it tends to track that way overall.
The best patriots broadcaster in the business
Chatham is not a glass half full analyst not Patriots cheerleaders. Quite to the contrary. He understands the Patriots with an unrivaled depth of insight and field study. I loved the Real Thing and if you doubt that Chatham knows more about the Patriots than you or any other analyst listen to last season. Matt essentially predicted Patriots success in the postseason at a granular level beyond the Xs and Os. He’s also a great broadcaster and a pleasure to listen to (I love his Athletic column as well).
