Mina on the broadcast shows is excellent. Her podcast demeanor needs work. Especially frustrating is her tendency to trail off into a mumble at the end of her sentences. I find myself straining to hear what she’s saying. And while she obviously has a good understanding of football schemes, I don’t think a pick show based EXCLUSIVELY on “scheme” is very helpful or predictive.

I am not impressed that an analyst, especially a Yale graduate, is able to memorize a few dozen words of locker room jargon and weave them into a broadcast, which half your audience won’t understand. I am very impressed by a journalist who can master the details of NFL play and explain it in clear, comprehensible language that any casual fan can understand.

Mina may have the best opening music of any sports podcast. Goes well with her good sports analysis and ball knowledge. Keep making the haters listen. They love it too.

Well, my year is now complete, Mina gerrymandering the draft again lol. Love you!

Mina is a smart, fun and gifted analyst with outstanding takes. She’s an insider with credible sources and her predictions are very accurate. And she’s adorable.

Always some great content and enjoy the different guests Mina brings to talk football. I’ll have to say, for the recent NFC North preview podcast both host had a whiny tone throughout, especially when talking about the Bears defense. It was really odd.

Please consider doing more shows with Dominique on real world stuff. I know this is a very sportsy show but I would love to hear you guys do some sort of mailbag or Reddit ama that we can hear your commentary on the world at large. Thanks for the wonderful weekly content Mina!

A fantastic podcast from one of the brightest minds in the game. Podcast question for Mina: I remember you coming on the LeBatard show in year 2 or 3 of Sam Darnold’s career and talking how you were still in the Sam Hive (I traded way too much in my dynasty league for him based, in part, on this opinion). Did that make last year’s Super Bowl run that much more enjoyable? Or had you changed opinions on Sam?

Podcast is awesome. No notes, but can we get an NFLSE collab during the season or offseason or either of the guys separately(Trevor and Connor)

Mina - you are a light in this dim, grim world.

Mina does a fantastic job bringing in playing of guests and different voices . Personal favorites include Nate Tice, Dominique Foxworth, and Greg Rosenthal. Would love if you brought Bomani on for a different perspective… Only constructive feedback would be to have Solak on once a month during the season to give space for a variety of voices which is one of my favorite things about the show.

Love Mina, but she sounds bored with this show. It’s kinda lost whatever made it special when it was new. A lot of the same guests over and over. No real spark to it anymore. Mina seems more interested in her TV watch-along pod. Also, the audio quality has gotten pretty bad (inexcusable for the so-called worldwide leader in sports).

Everyone should have an outlet, even the most annoying nerds in the world

Ben Solak declaring himself a caleb guy proves what a moron the guy is.

Tired of the Chargers disrespect. You change the parameters to be disrespectful. Trash.

And the show is just ok overall. It’s something listen to I guess. I just miss the PFF college and NFL shows

Mina deserves better audio mixing to better reflect the rhythms of bandwidth-delayed conversation. Interruptions are inevitable and shows like the Ringer Fantasy/Draft Show have figured out the audio mix so they don’t stamp out each others’ vocal tracks

I wanted to like this Podcast, but after a few episodes I give up. So many times I have to shake off the sense that they are using too many words to say nothing or contradicting themselves in the same breath. It’s overdone with the lingo and not friendly for people who just want to hear about the game. Lots of terms I don’t understand the way they use them. I even went over the transcript to see the contradictions and confusing references. One of the guys just sounds like he is constantly apologizing and afraid of Mina.

Ninety percent of three five star reviews are fake. This show is bad and nobody is dumb enough to believe the reviews

So bad. Fake knowledge. Reads stats. That’s it.

This was a waste of my time a show of speculation and stat reading without authentic opinions or insights to the eye test, just not. Fan of faking it

5 stars…Dude is a crazy person. No Mina slander will be tolerated.

Was a regular listener but no longer after shilling for an Israeli money laundering solitaire app. Absolutely pathetic to see you sell out like this

Thank goodness I finally found an intelligent podcast that isn’t annoying, my god it’s been pretty hard to find one. Her football IQ is through the roof, she’s super smart, sharp & funny. Finally, after listening to all these bros and their firework podcasts and wanting to stab myself in the eardrums I found Mina. Thanks Mina, you a real one.

Love Mina and her expertise. However her picks are often wrong. Example Rams - The 49ers. Basically picked Rams in a blowout - oops!

Mina is intelligent, entertaining, and engaging. It’s the one sports podcast I listen to every week! Need Ben Solak on every week or like a permanent guest host. Love listening to both of them talk football.

Perhaps the most vapid and boring presentation I’ve listen to. Mina and guest just regurgitate what they garner from listening and reading beat reporters. Fine. Not the first or 50th podcast to do so. But so monotone and void of any personality.

Usually a great pod. Mina is awesome. Nick Wright is an auto skip, hot take artist with no objectivity. Just a new age Skip Bayless

An awesome podcast!

Don’t use the term “shiesty” as this is an antisemetic term

Listen to the pod.

This is the best NFL podcast. Been listening since about 2021. Great metrics cited, excellent guests. You are great too Lenny!

Domonique and Mina breaking down games always teaches me something. And I love the long-form weekly previews with Ben Solak. The other guests are good too, but I would be perfectly happy if it was always Mina and Ben or Mina and Dominique. Specifically, I love how much detail Mina and Ben tend to go into on every player on the line, in the secondary, the scheme, and more. Those previews are almost 2 hours right now. They could be 4 hours and I’d listen to every minute of it every week. I‘ve been looking for a podcast that’ll tell me more than just what’s going on with the QB or skill players, and I think I’ve finally found it. I listen to every episode and would gladly listen to more. Edit: I still love having Ben on as a guest. But I hear other people about Ben’s audio being loud. It doesn’t bother me, but if enough feel this way, why not fix it? It seems fixable?

I respect Mina’s intelligence and football knowledge but this is one dull production. Not a genuine laugh to be found. Ben Solak is brilliant, has a great sense of humor and had outstanding chemistry with his old Ringer crew but that personality and sense of humor are totally neutered on this Pod. I’m sure that he won’t because of money but I wish that Ben would return to the Ringer, where he truly belongs.

Mina has been the best NFL analyst for at least the past 7 years. I listen year round and really enjoy the team draft her and GOJO have every season.

Disappointed that you had that bigot on your show. You’re still my favorite and the best nfl analyst ever

Long time fan of the pod and the football mind of Mina. This is a 5 star podcast downgraded because of one guest. Please make a change with Ben Solak. I now skip every episode where I see his name. There is nothing enjoyable about listening to him.

I just listen to the hawk bits and it’s painful. Makes me call into question every other take she has for a team I might not follow as much. I think people like her because she’s “quirky” but she’s a really uninteresting podcaster and analyst.

Great show but the microphones are kind of loud. Sounds like you all are yelling when you’re talking sometimes

I can’t stand his analysis. He’s annoying on all the platforms he’s on and it’s unfortunate that he has to be on this show once a week.

More Lenny, less Ben, please

As long as Ben Solak isn’t on an episode it’s a 5 star. I can’t listen to him talk over Mina anymore. Will have to skip those episodes moving forward.

Love the show. Long time listener. Also a corgi lover and corgi owner. You may have read out Lenny’s Dog DNA test in the past but I can’t recall. The GQ pictures that came out with Lenny standing on his hind legs got me thinking, does he have any corgi in him?

Certainly espn’s best nfl pod and among the best of all nfl pods

I love love LOVE Mina. She’s so smart about football, it’s amazing. I wish she would explain some things more simply for us slow kids in the back of the class. I’m a newer fan and I don’t know a lot of the terms she throws around. But then again, I know it’s not a podcast for newbies. My only other request is that she SLOW DOWN. She speaks quite quickly and the guy that is often on is even worse. His words slur together so frequently that, even when I’m listening on .8 speed, I can’t understand him.

Hello Mina like many other espn people when will we be able to get a Mina kimes card?

I love Mina , very knowledgeable! Love her on First Take, and NFL Live

I love Mina & the show, but Ben is too loud. Not just sometimes either.

Mina is great but I’ll never forgive ESPN for inflicting Ben Solak on us
