Chad Brown on the art of winning
<p>A few days ago, I received a text from Chad Brown. He read our column <a target="_blank" href="https://www.golongtd.com/p/the-wide-receiver-matrix">on the wide receiver matrix</a> and had thoughts on the topic from his playing days. After going back ‘n forth for a while, we decided to hit record on a podcast. </p><p>Love welcoming back one of the most underrated players of the late 1990s/early 2000s.</p><p>Brown is always insightful and introspective.</p><p>On this episode, we get into plenty:</p><p>* Tom Brady’s mid-life crisis. This is getting weird and sad. </p><p>* Wide Receiver drama. There were no such divas back on his Steelers teams, but how would Brown navigate this matrix as a GM today? </p><p>* John Schneider’s mastery. He wrote the Seahawks GM a letter. </p><p>* His love for snakes. Brown didn’t sprint the other direction when a python sank its teeth into his arm. Be sure to catch Shannon Sharpe’s legendary trash talk. He knew Brown loved reptiles and didn’t hold back one Seattle-Denver game. </p><p>* Seahawks’ repeat efforts. What impressed Brown most about last year’s run?</p><p>* State of the Steelers. What is Omar Khan’s long-term plan?</p><p>* Why he loves the L.A. Rams’ title odds. He sees those multi-TE sets ruling again.</p><p>Video and audio of this week’s chat is above.

He was a key piece on the epic “Blitzburgh” defenses of the 90s, starred for the Seahawks and capped his career off with the 2007 Patriots team that nearly went undefeated. </p><p>Today, he’s one of the sharpest analysts going. You can catch him on ESPN Radio and calling college/pro games on the Compass Media Network. <a target="_blank" href="https://x.com/chadbrown94">His X handle is @chadbrown94. </a></p><p>We’ve previously chatted with Brown for <a target="_blank" href="https://www.golongtd.com/p/the-last-badass">this story</a> on the history/aura of the Pittsburgh Steelers Linebacker.

Our 2026 Quarterback Draft!
<p>Hey, I see it’s quarterback ranking season. </p><p>They’re populating the interwebs everywhere. </p><p>A perfect time to reprise the Quarterback Draft on Real Football. Subscribers may recall co-host Jim Monos and myself bringing in our pal Matthew Fairburn of The Athletic to draft QBs a few years back. </p><p>Let’s get the band back together.</p><p>Full video and audio is available above for paid subscribers.</p><p>There’s no perfect way to grade quarterback success, but we’ll use the QBR stat that takes multiple factors into account. Each of us select six quarterbacks via snake draft. At the end of the season, we’ll each take the five best scores of those six for a grand total. Winner gets a free dinner of their choosing from the other two. </p><p>Fairburn might’ve taken the crown in 2023. But for what it’s worth, I’m already booking my reservation at West Rose in Ellicottville, NY. </p><p>Monos of course scouted for the Philadelphia Eagles, New Orleans Saints and served as the director of personnel for the Buffalo Bills. Fairburn has covered both the NFL and NHL for The Athletic. Good chance you’ve read <a target="_blank" href="https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/author/matthew-fairburn/">his excellent Sabres coverage this past season</a> right through the Stanley Cup Playoffs. He’s still keeping a close eye on the NFL, too. </p><p>Let us know who you think assembled the best crew in the comments.</p><p>Prefer to listen on Apple or Overcast? <a target="_blank" href="https://www.golongtd.com/listen">Bang it here</a> to sync your subscription.

Happy Hour Replay: Eric Wood knows how the Buffalo Bills (finally) win a Super Bowl
<p>His NFL life can now be told in two acts.</p><p>Eric Wood was the starting center the Buffalo Bills’ starting center for nine years. He helped end the 17-year playoff drought his final season.</p><p>Eric Wood has also now covered the team as a radio color commentator/podcaster/analyst the same amount of time. He’s the host of <a target="_blank" href="https://www.youtube.com/@thebuffalopod">Centered On Buffalo</a> and calls games on the radio broadcast. </p><p>This week’s Happy Hour podcast consists of a little bit of everything. Wood looks back to Drought memories and looks ahead to how these 2026 Bills get over the Super Bowl hump with new head coach Joe Brady. A ton of insight on all fronts.</p><p>As noted, we’re bringing back virtual Happy Hours this 2026 NFL season to give you the opportunity to ask players (and media members) anything you’d like. Is there someone you want to hang out with this year? Let me know at golongtd@substack.com.</p><p>Video and audio of our conversation with Wood is above. </p><p>New here? <a target="_blank" href="https://www.golongtd.com/subscribe"><strong>Upgrade to join all live Happy Hours.</strong></a></p><p>Topics this episode include… </p><p>* Life with Rex Ryan. There was so much hope and hype. Why did things turn south?</p><p>* Aaron Kromer. He wishes they had more time together. </p><p>* Rex’s defense was all about chaos and confusion. The sort of stuff Bills DC Jim Leonhard desires a decade later. Thing is, players hated Rex’s scheme in 2015 anf 2016. We explore the key differences between then and now, and how the Bills get the 3-4 right this time around. </p><p>* Alec Anderson. He’s the new guy starting full time on the line. Is he ready? </p><p>* The NFL went heavy in 2025 — the Bills, like the LA Rams, enjoyed 3-TE sets — but what is the next counterpunch for the NFL’s best offenses? More spread? </p><p>* WR screens drove locals batty. Wood offers thoughts on this play. Big picture, Wood points out something we did <a target="_blank" href="https://www.golongtd.com/p/he-wants-to-win-the-whole-damn-thing">back when Brady was hired</a>. The playcaller was often following orders in crafting conservative, keepaway gameplans vs. elite QBs. We’ll see what changes now.</p><p>* Joe Brady’s “they have to play us” mentality. The new coach detailed <a target="_blank" href="https://www.golongtd.com/p/joe-brady-takes-charge-part-ii-theyve">in full</a> to Go Long. </p><p>* Was Wood shocked by Sean McDermott’s <a target="_blank" href="https://www.golongtd.com/p/why-was-sean-mcdermott-fired">firing</a>? </p><p>* As a young player, Wood suffered a compound fracture of his tibia and fibula. The injury set a tone for his entire career. </p><p>* What was Terrell Owens like as a teammate? They played together Wood’s rookie season.</p><p>* Why you’ve always got to be careful who you pay — he witnessed the effect with Marcell Dareus. Motivation matters.</p><p>* My “Real Football” co-host Jim Monos often points out that <a target="_blank" href="https://www.golongtd.com/p/myth-of-the-franchise-offensive-lineman">offensive line play is overrated</a>. Let’s get Wood’s take. </p><p>Thanks, all. </p><p>Keep an eye out for our first season preview feature this coming Friday. </p><p>In the meantime, here are a few recent links to pieces if you missed anything. </p><p>Be sure to share Go Long with a friend if you enjoy.
