I'll watch anything with Greg Cosell in it. Decades of unbiased film study and analysis.

[@alexanderritter1522]

Same. I watch anything chris simm and anything greg cosell for the draft

[@ref233]

Greg is a rare breed that he is trustworthy and free of bias. He actually watches film and isn’t a repeater, which characterizes most these so called draft “analysts”.

[@chadlopez5245]

Greg is just flawless . He is better than 99% of scouts .

[@mack72711]

Greg Cosell lays it out perfectly

[@MrJBEEZZY22]

Absolutely love Greg and his work and the way he explains things.

[@melindaostergren8115]

It’s been awhile since I’ve heard Mr. Cosell talk. What a pleasure to listen to him. His ability to describe a player’s characteristics and to apply that to the context of a particular system is a true gift. I enjoyed hearing about innate vs learned skills. Thanks, Rich.

[@kennytoce5946]

Greg is the best in the biz

[@hokieduck]

Greg and Daniel Jeremiah are my top two.

[@kennytoce5946]

@@hokieduck agreed

[@werb24]

You could hear Rich dying inside a little when Greg assessed J.J.

[@AbigailRTeh]

After Game 3 (Texans' win vs Jags), Chase Daniels reports the Texans coaches were amazed at the amount of info and speed of processing that CJ could handle.

[@galvo_galvo]

Greg should be a reg on the show.

[@adamkincaidmusic]

yup greg the reg

[@saw12367]

Thanks Rich...great questions...great dialogue. Greg is my favorite analyst. Objective...bases opinions on film study, not preconcieved notions or stereotypes. Awesome job...please make him a regular contributor during the season...if that's not already the plan

[@ericparker163]

Greg started his career a year after I was born. When he says CJ Stroud's rookie season was ridiculously good, believe him. Don't hold your incoming rookie QB to that standard. Haley's comet only comes around so often.

[@tjayd1225]

I would pay to spend a week with Greg while he’s breaking down tape in his office

[@HarrisonHollers]

I wish someone like Belichick would do a course on the app Masterclass. But Greg would be exceptional too!

[@ericparker163]

A question for those in the know......are they using the same stock photo every time Maye name is mentioned or does he always throw the ball with the laces out?

[@dockennedy8091]

Have Greg on as much as possible please!

[@arthuresau1129]

Stroud was just amazing. In my opinion they don't need Diggs. I saw the game T. Dell got hurt. Noah Brown showed up big time. They had already 3 good receivers

[@davidmack7298]

He is fabulous

[@mathfish6645]

Cossell is da man! You too Rich!

[@edscott2433]

Rich, please let the man talk.

[@scottrowlandrowland1098]

This dude knows his stuff.

[@mountainsun1]

More please...🙏

[@toddbarndollar8033]

We love Greg

[@silverblack5475]

I wanted the Raiders to pick penix at 13 this makes me want it even more

[@martinnooter7034]

Roger Bong, are you related to, Richard Bong, that there is a memorial bridge, between Duluth, and Superior?

[@KingWizard26]

Whoever is drafted at 2 to play under Kingsbury’s offense…..good luck 😂

[@Beatles123ful]

What evaluators miss with JJ McCarthy is how he plays the game and wins. He makes the plays necessary to win the game . Is that the most important attribute.

[@ko9655]

The very best

[@ZacharyJohnG]

The Titans never averaged over 30 ppg under Mike Vrabel.

[@kineticsimulations3593]

Eisen talking about “processing” being “first rate.” Bro wouldn’t know the first thing about watching tape

[@Thebluesky0311]

All this talk of the draft and no reference to BROCK PURDY??? WOW

[@-lowe5765]

Rich is Mr. NFL

[@roguebossa]

Be interesting to see CJ and Diggs

[@ThomasR-ez1fs]

For as good as Greg is, he filled a lot of the time about the guys in the draft with empty comments. And he’s wrong about McCarthy playing behind the best college OL. Penix did. When he talked about Penix going against maybe 8 Michigan defenders who may be playing in the NFL, he ignores that Penix played with a WR & OL that will go in round one. He also had 2 WRs and another OL who will be picked in the rounds 2 & 3. Maybe 3 Michigan defenders at best will get selected in rounds 2 & 3 (and possibly none of them in rnd 2) and none in round one. I’ll take 5 top 90 guys over a bunch of guys selected in rounds 5-7 who might not make a squad.

[@Biz613]

JJ McCarthy is the next Ryan Tannehill.

[@robertrohde4579]

Tannehill started as a WR. JJ is more of a QB. JJ was also a very good hockey player before he chose to play only football. I am not sure just how good JJ will be as an NFL QB only because he didn't have to carry the team at Michigan. He might be elite in the NFL, time will tell!

[@werb24]

He won’t be as good as tannahill

[@robertrohde4579]

@@werb24 Too early to tell. I have made projections way too early a few times. Time will tell us what JJ is or is not!

[@russellbell8973]

JJ McCarthy is a lock to be a bust. Any team dumb enough to pick him, let alone trade up to take him is idiotic

[@Buzzdog1971]

What I saw on McCarthy's tape is that he won. He played in the biggest games and he won.

[@Diostillrocks]

Then why has so many National Championship QBs failed in the NFL? See Bryce Young, AJ McCarron, Tim Tebow, Matt Leinhart, Chris Weinke, Vince Young, Greg McElroy, Mac Jones careers in the NFL. No QB has won both the National Championship and the Super Bowl since Joe Montana. Only Joe Burrow got close. Learning to lose is just as important as knowing how to win.

[@billjenkins2503]

Stroud last game against Utah, he was so spectacular. I think that affected Houston to draft him.

[@scottkalnoske2927]

His last game was the natty vs UGA …Utah bowl game was the year before

[@readmelancholystrumpetmaster]

Penix would go number one if not for injuries.

[@xerxes2044]

I bet he goes top 10.

[@jackb8598]

I got him going 2 to the commanders.
