Episode 36 | Triple Threat: Positions, Play Levels, and Predictions
This week, we have yet again another week missing one of the boys but Turf Talk doesn't stop. We're going all over the field—literally. First, we spotlight NFL players who broke the mold by playing multiple positions and thriving. Then, we tackle the age-old debate: which level of football is truly the best—high school, college, or the pros? Finally, we're getting bold with our way-too-early predictions for the 2026 NFL free agency frenzy. Hot takes, deep dives, and wild guesses await!JOIN THE HUDDLE, JOIN THE TALK, WITH THE TURF TALK PODCAST!!

Episode 35 | Pads, Drafts & Day Jobs: The NFL Like You've Never Seen
This week, one of our co-hosts is out, so we called in a familiar face from behind the camera to help us bring the chaos. We’re breaking down the latest NFL headlines—but after that, it’s anything but normal. We’re drafting our favorite non-football things, judging the best (and worst) NFL uniforms in Football Fashion Police, and imagining what players and coaches would be doing if they weren’t in the league. (Spoiler: Bill Belichick definitely runs the DMV.) It’s football talk for fans and non-fans alike—with just the right amount of nonsense.JOIN THE HUDDLE, JOIN THE TALK, WITH THE TURF TALK PODCAST!

Episode 34 | Champions Named, Chaos Unfolds, Contracts Debated!!
In this jam-packed episode of The Turf Talk Podcast, we break down the 2025 UFL Championship and what it means for the future of spring football. Then, we turn to breaking news as Antonio Brown faces a shocking warrant for his arrest in connection to a murder attempt investigation — what we know so far, and what it could mean for his already infamous legacy. Next, we dive into a heated debate: who deserves a contract extension more — Brock Purdy or Baker Mayfield? Finally, we keep it consistent with our great guessing games to test our knowledge of the game. We’ve got the takes, the context, and the chaos.
