His stories are endless. Andrew Brandt has lived it all in pro sports. As a sports agent. As a Green Bay Packers executive. As a member of sports media.Even as the GM of the Barcelona Dragons.We all know so much more about how the NFL works because of his voice, his ability to articulate complicated stuff to the masses. Now, Brandt has documented his journey for us all to read. “Smarter About Sports: My Life Navigating Athletes, Agents, Media, and the Business of the NFL” is available everywhere books are sold.Be sure to add Brandt’s book to your library today. It’s excellent. Here on the Go Long Podcast, Brandt shares a few of those tales. Video and audio of our conversation is available above. I’ll also share the transcription for those who’d prefer to read later today. Topics include…* How Brandt broke into the agent world. (Yes, with a trip to Barcelona to follow.)* Learning from NBA super-agent David Falk. * Allowing for “serendipity” at every turn — Brandt constantly bet on himself to pursue a life in sports.* Ron Wolf’s words that changed his life. The Packers wanted an agent to take over as VP. Brandt was the choice. Brandt handled the team’s contracts from 1999 to 2008.* Life in Green Bay. It was different than anything he had experienced. * Reliving the day Brett Favre’s father died. He’ll never forget it. * Reliving the transition from Favre to Aaron Rodgers — Brandt was close to both. He’ll never forget this all, either. Ninety-five percent of calls to his phone were pro-Favre.* What makes the Packers different on and off the field in the business of pro football.This was a ton of fun.These days, Brandt is the executive director of the Jeffrey S. Moorad Center for the Study of Sports Law at Villanova University. You can also get all of his insight at the Sunday Seven newsletter.Live in Wisconsin? Be sure to hang out with Brandt at one of his book signings coming up. He’ll be in at the Appleton Barnes & Noble on Oct. 17 (10:30 a.m. CST), Lion’s Mouth Bookstore in Green Bay later that same day (3 p.m.), and then the Barnes & Noble in Green Bay on Oct. 18 (11 a.m.).

Six teams placed six high-stakes bets on April 25, 2024. It’s now Year 3 for all six quarterbacks. With Drake Maye’s mind-boggling struggles, injuries to Caleb Williams/Jayden Daniels, more Bo Nix fourth-quarter magic, the J.J. McCarthy trade and Michael Penix’s return from another ACL, I thought it was a perfect time to discuss the 2024 quarterback class in full here on Real Football with co-host Jim Monos. All QBs can still veer all possible directions. We start in Foxborough where Maye’s career arc is particularly shocking. Last season, he nearly won MVP. The North Carolina product zapped life into the entire organization and played beyond his years. Three games into this 2026 season, he’s arguably been the worst starter in the league. What happened? Can he rekindle his magic? So much about playing quarterback is rooted in confidence.QB to QB to QB, we get to ‘em all. Daniels is hurt, again, but hustling to get back. His first half in Dallas was encouraging. Williams had a front-row ticket to the Case Keenum Show at Soldier Field. What’s next for this quarterback we’ve tracked closely?The Vikings found a team to take McCarthy off their hands. I explored why it didn’t work out in our Kyler Murray two-parter. Now, let’s get a scout’s perspective on Real Football.Meanwhile, all Nix does is turn it on in the fourth quarter. Listeners of the pod remember Monos pegging Denver as the team that’d draft Nix far back as the NFL Combine that spring. He worked with Sean Payton in New Orleans. (We still like these ‘26 Broncos.)Then, there’s Penix. Atlanta has life after clobbering the Packers. This QB is all, all, all arm. Enjoy the show.Thank you for growing Go Long.

Offensively, it was ugly. Five turnovers could’ve doomed the Buffalo Bills. But defensively? This is the sort of victory Joe Brady loves to see this time of year. Some teams fold when everything starts going wrong. (Hello, Matt LaFleur.)Other teams treat the football like a hot potato and still find a way. Here’s a quick recap on the Bills’ 24-16 win over the Chargers. The last time Buffalo won a game despite committing five turnovers? That’d be against the Jim Harbaugh-quarterbacked Indianapolis Colts in 1997. Oh boy, does Harbaugh have his work cut out for him with these 0-3 Chargers. It’s time for everyone to stop with the annual Justin Herbert hype. He stunk on Sunday.Still, give this new Bills credit for stepping up. Greg Rousseau, CJ Gardner-Johnson and others supplied the needed stops. What does this game say about Buffalo moving forward? Video and audio is above and also accessible on our Apple, Spotify and YouTube channels. As a programming note, I will not have an Aftermath column today and promise it’s for good reason. Chipping away at something much bigger that’ll roll out later this week. Thank you reading, listening and sharing with a friend. Here’s a quick feature on the physical transformation of Bills defensive tackle DeWayne Carter, icymi. This is a public episode.

One moment, Jermichael Finley is dreaming of championships and a gold jacket. The Green Bay Packers tight end truly believed he was turning a corner.The next? He’s motionless. He’s told he may never walk again and starts imagining a life of eating through a straw. Football can be cruel.His life completely changed in one split-second.Thirteen years later, Jermichael Finley tears open those old wounds right here on the Go Long Podcast. Back in my days covering the team at the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, I got to know Finley the player and the person. There simply weren’t tight ends sculpted like this 6-foot-5, 250-pounder. His potential was obvious to everyone watching those record-setting Packers offenses. There were ups and downs. He missed the team’s 2010 Super Bowl run with a meniscus tear in his knee. And with one collision vs. the Cleveland Browns on Oct. 20, 2013, his career abruptly ended.Since then, I’ve checked in on Finley a few times. He was never shy answering any questions about his former quarterback. To which, Aaron Rodgers has since responded multiple times. Most recently, the Steelers QB said his former tight end “just wasn’t a smart person.” So, yes, we Finley’s perspective on this comment. He looks back at their relationship. I think his view on the dynamic will surprise you, despite the fact that he hasn’t spoken to Rodgers since he laid on a hospital bed 13 years ago.Above all, Finley has matured into a man completely at peace in life. Down in Texas, he’s been busy raising five boys with his wife Courtney. His oldest is a wide receiver at Notre Dame, and look out. The next Finley boy (London) is coming. Jermichael Finley is finding true purpose in life, and that’s a quantum leap for all ex-players… let alone the players whose careers end in such horrific fashion. Video and audio of our full conversation is above.I will also share a transcript later today for those who’d prefer to read. Thanks, all. Go Long is powered completely by you.

This Vikings-Bears game at Soldier Field was everything everyone should love about football — hard hitting, inclement weather, every inch was earned.Here on the Ty & Bob Pod, we dissect it all.Two games in, the Minnesota Vikings should be feeling damn good about themselves, too. Brian Flores has his unit hunting, and the defensive coordinator is armed with an ascending star in edge rusher Dallas Turner. So, what makes this blitz-happy Vikings defense unlike any other? McGinn has studied the film (as only he can) and I’ve spent some time around the personalities who make this defense go. We discuss in full this episode.Meanwhile, what a whirlwind of emotions in Chicago. After torching Carolina for 59 points, Ben Johnson’s crew was held to a mere field goal in its home opener. Quarterback Caleb Williams writhed in pain one moment — this looked (and sounded) like a season-ender. Testing has revealed a week-to-week hamstring injury. When should the quarterback return to action? Case Keenum may be the man under center on Monday Night Football vs. Philadelphia as Tyson Bagent works through the concussion protocol. One major difference between these two teams: linebacker play. Blake Cashman and Eric Wilson are humming for the Vikes.Elsewhere, the Green Bay Packers survived the wretched swamps of New Jersey.It was ugly. It was win. Javon Bullard is bringing his words to life and Lukas Van Ness had his best game as a pro. But, goodness, what about that offense? The Zach Bako-Bewele injury is a killer up front. Finally, it was a miserable night in Orchard Park, NY for the Detroit Lions. There are holes throughout Dan Campbell’s defense. How will the head coach adjust on the fly?Stick around for a “McGinn Memory” looking back to a 1981 Packers trip to Shea Stadium.We’ve got two-plus hours of NFC North talk for you each week at Go Long. New here? McGinn, a member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame, has covered the NFL since 1979. We’re former co-workers at the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. Subscribers can access all episodes, all season long.

What a night it was at Highmark. The Buffalo Bills authored a storybook inaugural game against the Detroit Lions with, of course, Josh Allen taking centerstage.Here’s my column from the 41-31 win. This “lunatic” of a quarterback with a smelling salt hanging from his mouth is playing more free than ever. (And he’s not alone.)And, icymi, here’s our story off an exclusive 1 on 1 with owner Terry Pegula. He details why football always needed to stay in Western New York. “The Bills are here. The Sabres are here. And they’re going to stay here.”In addition to our two main podcasts — “Real Football” (with Jim Monos) and the “Ty & Bob Pod” (with Bob McGinn) — we’ll get into the habit of dinging record on a Bills show. As most know, Monos served as the team’s director of personnel from May ‘13 to May ‘17 and always brings a fresh perspective. Today, we try to make sense of Allen’s performance and a perplexing defense. They made plays up front, but clearly this scheme is a major work in progress.Enjoy the show? Share with a friend. We’re fueled by you.Thanks, all.Links from the week… ‘Legacy:’ Terry Pegula opens up on his mission to keep the Bills in Buffalo‘Dangerous:’ Say hello to the new Buffalo Bills juggernaut offenseReal Football: Is Patrick Mahomes BACK?!Ty & Bob Pod S5 E1: Inside the Packers-Vikings meltdownUnfortunate Situation: Vikings roar and Matt LaFleur chokes (again)Monos Report: What’s real and what’s fake in the NFL?Do or Die for C.J.

I believe it’s illegal in at least 27 states to publicly doubt Patrick Mahomes.He has earned that right.He was a central the-one-that-got-away figure in our first story ever at Go Long.There’s a strong case to make that Mahomes is the best quarterback ever this side of Tom Brady. The Kansas City Chiefs star has captivated us all with a magic to his game.Yet, last season, Mahomes posted career lows across the board and the Chiefs missed the playoffs. In my piece on C.J. Stroud and the gnarly Texans defense, sources detailed the team’s blueprint vs. Mahomes — one that Philadelphia used in the Super Bowl, one that bludgeoned the QB into submission. Houston made him look downright bad in 2025.Of course, the three-time champion and five-time Super Bowl participant is also coming off a torn ACL. This could dull mobility, too.Under the Monday Night Football glow, Mahomes started sluggish, ran for one touchdown and threw short for two more in a 31-10 win over Denver.What do we make of his performance? Where do Mahomes and the Chiefs go from here? This is our main topic on “Real Football” with co-host Jim Monos, our longtime NFL scout.Andy Reid and Brett Veach restructured this team in major ways in an attempt to create a new championship window. (Holy, Kenneth Walker Jr.) We get into plenty on the first episode of the regular season.* Everything Mahomes. (Also: I loved the QB’s trainer, Bobby Stroupe, sharing our story as motivation.)* Drake Maye’s scary debut. Aberration? Or cause for concern? * Juggernaut Chicago Bears offense.* Matt LaFleur’s Week 1 dud.* Baker Mayfield’s $55M/year contract. If Monos was the Buccaneers’ GM, what would he have done? * Why I still love the Ravens. New playcaller Declan Doyle, 30, supplied quite a first impression. * UPSET ALERT. Monos believes the Indianapolis Colts will beat KC this week. We rapid-fire predict all Week 2 games. Full video and audio is above. As a reminder, you won’t be peppered with one advertisement at Go Long and that’s only possible because of you. So thank you for watching, listening and sharing with a friend. Subscribers can also catch the two-hour, 12-minute NFC North podcast with Bob McGinn. He dissects all the action as only he can.Here’s our mission into Year 7, icymi.Thanks, all.
