Tom Curran’s Patriots Talk Podcast - Podcast Rankings and reviews

This is a solid Patriots podcast with weekly updates and digestible episode length. The hosts are knowledgeable and credible journalists. Curran has good sources and was the first to break that Belichick would not return to the Pats.

As much of a dumpster fire as the Pats are, your discussion of the options for change was really enlightening. I used to think the Krafts’ were good owners but they are responsible for this wreck. How they could promise Mayo the head coach job when he hadn’t yet accumulated the experience is poor stewardship. If they keep Mayo for next season, the football overlord is their best hope but a slim one. I hate to see AVP be the scapegoat. He might be a much better OC if he had an offensive line and a couple of reasonable receivers (not all-pro, just ball catchers). I think the O line coach did a good job too given the revolving door of poor talent. league cast-offs. It will be interesting to see how all of this plays out.

Quality of show depends on how many beers Tom has consumed before recording. If it’s only 1 or 2 it’s usually a good show. If it’s 3 or more you know it’s gonna be great!! And the senator Phil Perry makes a great sidekick. I listen even tho I’m not a Paaaaaaaatriots fan.

Tom does a magnificent Robert Kraft impersonation that will sound like a spot on Godfather but it’s worth the listen. Always entertaining and informative.

Once a sharp analyst, Tom E. Curran’s “Patriots Talk” has devolved into a bland echo chamber. After helping push Belichick out the door, you’d think Curran would at least maintain his edge. Instead, he’s now a soft PR machine for the very people replacing the legend he tore down.

Curran’s critical eye has vanished, and his once-balanced takes have turned into hollow praise. The hard-hitting analysis that once made him worth listening to? Nowhere to be found. He’s more interested in protecting his access than calling it like it is.

Skip this podcast unless you like recycled praise and tired narratives.

I listen to several Patriots podcasts and I always look forward to this one. Tom and Phil crack me up! They are a great duo with great knowledge and entertainment.
