The Half Yard Line
The Half Yard Line is a weekly NFL podcast for people who don’t hear the game talked about the way they think about it. Tim (the Steelers via Kentucky) and Luke (the Titans via the United Kingdom) take an objective look at the whys and wherefores of America’s Game, and analyze the good, the bad, and the downright baffling of the National Football League. We’ll talk about everything football, whether it’s the use and abuse of statistics, an in-depth discussion of how a game unfolded, the plight of a franchise that’s perennially stuck in the doldrums, or the simple pleasure an NFL player with a fantastic name. Join us every Wednesday as we talk about the one thing everyone can both agree and disagree on just as strongly: football.
