On the Wednesday episode of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by Mike's Beer Bar, host Christopher Carter welcomes Aaron Schatz, FTN Fantasy's chief analytics officer, to break down the Steelers' advanced metrics. What do they say about whether Russell Wilson and/or Justin Fields can be upgrades at QB over what the team had with Kenny Pickett, Mason Rudolph and Mitch Trubisky? Is Wilson washed up at 35? Or just more ordinary than earlier in his career? And is the run-based offense he'll be running under new coordinator Arthur Smith a proper fit with the pass-heaviness of the modern NFL? Our duo tackles those topics, then breaks down whether the defense's additions of LB Patrick Queen, S DeShon Elliott and CB Donte Jackson in NFL free agency and trades will be enough to keep the unit ranked in the top 10 this coming season.

There was a time when NFL Training Camps were exactly that---camps to get players who had offseason jobs with no offseason conditioning ready for the NFL Season. Teams would open camp just after the 4th of July and there were 6 Pre-Season Games to help prepare them for the season. Times have changed drastically as players make large sums of money and can focus solely on their jobs playing football all year round, thus various Mini-Camps and Teaching Sessions. The purpose of the preseason should be twofold. First, to prepare the team to win right away in the regular season. Second, to find football players who could help our team from among the cadre of newcomers. Chris explains how this has all evolved and why the modern day approach has adjusted to the modern game of Pro Football and it's schedule.

The year was 1970 and the NFL/AFL became finalized and a reality as the league ballooned to 26 teams divided into two conferences with three divisions.

Podcast host Dana Auguster brings us back to that unforgettable season of 1970 -- the year the modern NFL was born.

Sometimes they could do both. Today we talk to Jack Gilden, the author of the book Collision of Wills: Johnny Unitas, Don Shula, and the Rise of the Modern NFL.

The third incarnation of the Baltimore Colts – the second as an official member of the NFL – produced some of the most memorable and dominant teams to ever play the pro game. Winners of impressive back-to-back NFL titles over the New York Giants in both 1958 (the December 28th Yankee Stadium sudden-death overtime final regarded as the mythic “Greatest Game Ever Played”) and 1959, the Colts and head coach Weeb Ewbank surprisingly stumbled into mid-table mediocrity in the early years of the 1960s – enough to convince mercurial owner Carroll Rosenblum to make a stunning change at the end of the team’s (7-7) 1962 season – one that would quickly shake up the squad and the expectations behind it. The selection of Detroit Lions defensive coordinator Don Shula to become the new head coach of the Colts was eyebrow-raising for a number of reasons – age (at 33, the youngest-ever to be chosen for such a role in the NFL up until that time); relative inexperience (only two years as a college assistant at Virginia and Kentucky before his first pro stint in Detroit building the famous “Fearsome Foursome” defense); and karma – cut by the Colts as a player seven years earlier, Shula was now suddenly coach over former teammates who hadn’t previously accorded him much respect. Chief among those players was quarterbacking legend-in-the-making Johnny Unitas – arguably the Colts’ most valuable franchise player, who was hugely responsible for the team’s titles in the late 50s, and through whom any future success depended. Author Jack Gilden (Collision of Wills: Johnny Unitas, Don Shula and the Rise of the Modern NFL) joins host Tim Hanlon to discuss how these two eventual Pro Football Hall of Fame titans battled each other and the rest of the NFL during the remainder of the 1960s, and lifted the Colts back to elite status in the league – while setting themselves both up for further individual greatness once they again parted ways.

On this week’s podcast, we talk NFL football with two talented authors. Jack Gilden discusses his book, “Collision of Wills - Johnny Unitas, Don Shula & The Rise of The Modern NFL” and Mark Leibovich looks at the game today in his book, “Big Game - The NFL In Dangerous Times”.
Today we are joined by Jack Gilden, author of the book Collision of Wills: Johnny Unitas, Don Shula, and the Rise of the Modern NFL (University of Nebraska Press, 2018). In this groundbreaking book, Gilden takes the reader back to the Baltimore Colts of the mid-1960s, led by the best quarterback in the game (Johnny Unitas) and an up-and-coming coach (Don Shula) who would win more games than any other NFL coach and would preside over the NFL’s only perfect season. What should have been a harmonious relationship between a player and coach with similar goals — winning titles — instead became a contentious coexistence where both men barely concealed their contempt for one another. The Colts reached the NFL championship game in 1964, lost a bizarre playoff to Green Bay in 1965, and were shut out of the playoffs in 1967 despite an 11-1-2 record. The team went 15-1 in 1968 to win the NFL title but then lost to the upstart New York Jets of the AFL in Super Bowl III. Based on solid research and interviews with former players and coaches — including Shula — Gilden peels back the fog of 1960s football to bring two giants of the game into sharper focus. With a backstory of the turbulent changes in American culture of the 1960s also coming into play, Gilden provides a different and absorbing view of two American idols. Bob D’Angelo earned his master’s degree in history from Southern New Hampshire University in May 2018. He earned his bachelor’s degree in journalism from the University of Florida and spent more than three decades as a sportswriter and sports copy editor, including 28 years on the sports copy desk at The Tampa (Fla.) Tribune. He can be reached at bdangelo57@gmail.com. For more information, visit Bob D’Angelo’s Books and Blogs. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Today we are joined by Jack Gilden, author of the book Collision of Wills: Johnny Unitas, Don Shula, and the Rise of the Modern NFL (University of Nebraska Press, 2018). In this groundbreaking book, Gilden takes the reader back to the Baltimore Colts of the mid-1960s, led by the best quarterback in the game (Johnny Unitas) and an up-and-coming coach (Don Shula) who would win more games than any other NFL coach and would preside over the NFL’s only perfect season. What should have been a harmonious relationship between a player and coach with similar goals — winning titles — instead became a contentious coexistence where both men barely concealed their contempt for one another. The Colts reached the NFL championship game in 1964, lost a bizarre playoff to Green Bay in 1965, and were shut out of the playoffs in 1967 despite an 11-1-2 record. The team went 15-1 in 1968 to win the NFL title but then lost to the upstart New York Jets of the AFL in Super Bowl III. Based on solid research and interviews with former players and coaches — including Shula — Gilden peels back the fog of 1960s football to bring two giants of the game into sharper focus. With a backstory of the turbulent changes in American culture of the 1960s also coming into play, Gilden provides a different and absorbing view of two American idols.

He goes into great detail on how tough it is to defend and he talks about its staying power in the league. Farrar takes us through the desperation that led to many of the changes in the NFL. He talks Bill Walsh. He talks Doug Pederson. On Schooled, we dig deep into the strategy that has made the game of football great and what is working today.

In 1969, the Continental Football league welcomed the Golden Aztecs, or Aztecas Dorados into the league as the first professional American Football team in Mexico. The team only played 8 games and the Continental Football league folded at the end of the season, but in the wild west of professional football during the infancy of the Modern NFL, the Golden Aztecs stood as a shining example of what football could be at its best and at its worst.
