Quarterbacks

In our kickoff to SEASON 5 of Running It Back, Hosts Tarlin Ray and Mike Palmer dive into the exciting world of NFL quarterbacks and their narratives. After Tarlin’s “291” anecdote, we start with a New York focus, getting NY Sports fan Mike’s takes on the recent trade of Karl-Anthony Towns to the Knicks and the current state of the Mets. Then we shift gears to analyze “That’s My Quarterback…” narratives from across the league, including Aaron Rodgers’ return from injury, Josh Allen’s video game-like performances and improved decision-making, and the ongoing debate about Daniel “Danny Dimes” Jones upside for the New York Giants.

We explore the idea that a quarterback’s success may depend more on their organization than individual talent, using examples like Lamar Jackson and Patrick Mahomes. We also touch on the changing landscape of the NFL, with an increasing number of mobile quarterbacks and black quarterbacks leading teams. We’ll return to that once we’re caught up on Lou Moore’s book The Great Black Hope and The Evolution of the Black Quarterback series which just dropped on Amazon.

Join us for a lively discussion filled with hot takes, witty banter, fantasy football insights, and musings on the future of the game. Don’t miss this episode, which is packed with NFL analysis and takeaways from emerging QB narratives. Listen and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts!
