Description
The NFL Puddle gives a unique breakdown of the NFL. Not overly qualified, these two enthusiastic Limey podcast amateurs give you their take on the NFL from the UK.
A lighthearted look at the NFL by two British guys trying to work out what's going on with football that isn't soccer.
Their understanding isn't deep, but it's refreshing and may just give you a different view of an entertaining and exciting sport.
From draft to fantasy, it all gets discussed and nothing is too sacred as we watch with interest from across the pond.
