This week’s podcast will feature my regular installment of “Brandt’s Rants.” I will discuss the early season success of the Philadelphia Eagles and the New England Patriots, particularly their ability to put players in the best positions for success, Tod Leiweke, who just passed his one-year mark in July as the National Football League’s Chief Operating Officer, and the slowing momentum of the Oakland Raiders’ potential move to Las Vegas.
