This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.houseofstrauss.comCongrats to ZigZag for again winning a SportsPredict NFL Week. The prize is a 30 minute phone conversation with yours truly, and I’m happy to re-up on that. In the spirit of NFL content, this week’s pod is with the ever granular Dieter Kurtenbach of the Dieter and Hutch YouTube channel. The overarching topic is an exploration of a) Why the 49ers went from analyzed to ignored by national media and b) How NFL national media arrives at its collective takes. Topics include but aren’t limited to…* National NFL games dictate a TON of NFL media takery * Football games should only be played in domes? * Jon Gruden’s big secret on what makes plays work* A smidge of Wemby slander* An insane aspect of a Brock Purdy interception the Monday Night Football TV broadcast didn’t show you* The suddenly surging 49ers are being ignored? * The Rams are the top team. One guy insists they have a fatal flaw?* Dieter tries and fails to sell me on getting into the San Jose Sharks* Interceptions are overrated* Is Jalen Hurts protecting his rep by avoiding INTs?
