Our Editor's Take

Slightly Offsides is a no-nonsense, straightforward, fan-first podcast for those who love football. Hosts Dre, Greg, and Mike share their game plans and predictions. The trio gets competitive and shows their forward-thinking skills in each episode.

Though insightful, the hosts are quick to say their opinions are not betting advice. While the topics are often pretty serious, the podcast remains casual and fun. Listeners will hear weekly breakdowns of the latest football news. How does Nebraska look this season? Will the new NFL class perform better than last year's? What are the hosts' thoughts on the earliest draft picks? The topics—and football analyses—are endless on this podcast.

The dynamic between all three hosts is witty, conversational, and always engaging. Nothing about this podcast feels scripted or stiff despite following a matter-of-fact format. Hosts often drop humorous segments into the episodes to keep things light and fun. No matter what fans love—college or pro league football—this podcast breaks it down.

Slightly Offsides drops a new podcast episode almost every week. The podcast takes a break when it's no longer the college or professional season. Listeners can expect episodes to last almost an hour—sometimes more. All episodes of Slightly Offsides are available now on Amazon Music.
