Inside NFL RedZone, Petty Rivaries And The League's Coaching Carousel

from The Athletic Show

Go behind the curtain of the most intense broadcast in media: NFL RedZone. We explore the secret shorthand, the 200-page research dossiers, and the "shaman-like" stamina of Scott Hanson. Can the NFL’s most addictive show survive without its legendary quarterback? Plus, as the NFL coaching carousel begins to spin, Zena Keita, Robert Mays, and Jason Goff are joined by Dave Helman to play "NFL Owner" and predict where the league's biggest names—from Mike Tomlin to John Harbaugh—will land. Also, is "polite" sports culture dead? We dive into the rising tide of pettiness in the league, from Ben Johnson’s abrupt handshakes to the never-ending Jordan vs. Isiah feud.Hosts & GuestsZena Keita @itszenakeitaRobert Mays @robertmaysJason Goff @Jason1GoffScott Hanson @ScottHansonDave Helman @davehelman_Jayne Bardahl @JaynabardahlEditor: Matt ShiltsExecutive Producer: Maggie BurbankProducer: Stephen LorenzoA Production of The Athletic, Ode Studios, and Banner Studios.
