There are no game predictions this time, but we did talk about which Patriots players are worth watching and how this Patriots team is different from those of years past. Of course that's interspersed with talk about what's expected of the Panthers with their patchwork offensive line and young defensive backfield.  Check out Complete in Box to see Spenser's video game store and podcast he plugged at the end of the episode.  00:44:004th and Short A CSR PodcastnoNFL,Football,Carolina Panthers,New England Patriots,preseasonThe usual crew is joined by Patriots fan Spenser to preview Panthers vs. PatriotsReviewing preseason week one and previewing preseason week twohttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/4th-and-short-catscratchreader/2018/08/17/reviewing-preseason-week-one-and-previewing-preseason-week-twoFootballhttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/4th-and-short-catscratchreader/2018/08/17/reviewing-preseason-week-one-and-previewing-preseason-week-two/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/4th-and-short-catscratchreader/2018/08/17/reviewing-preseason-week-one-and-previewing-preseason-week-twoFri, 17 Aug 2018 00:00:00 GMTReviewing preseason week one and previewing preseason week twoBrian, Brad, and Jon talk about their impressions from the Panthersfirst week of preseason action.

The show then pivots to laughing at the Saints for trading up to select a raw defensive end that some thought was a day 2 pick. We talk about the Buccaneers questionable decision to pass up the chance to improve their horrible pass defense in favor of drafting a space eating nose tackle.  Bonus discussions include the Patriots playing into the Twitter jokes, Brian falling asleep at the wheel, and the Falcons Brenton Bersin.  01:07:004th and Short A CSR PodcastnoNFL,Carolina Panthers,Atlanta Falcons,nfl draftJeanna and DW join the show to talk about the draft and make fun of teams that messed up2f4344b5-b76d-489b-a5a3-611729d72079Draft Recap Bonanzahttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/4th-and-short-catscratchreader/2018/05/01/draft-recap-bonanzaFootballhttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/4th-and-short-catscratchreader/2018/05/01/draft-recap-bonanza/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/4th-and-short-catscratchreader/2018/05/01/draft-recap-bonanzaTue, 01 May 2018 10:00:00 GMTDraft Recap BonanzaBrad, Brian, and Jon go pick by pick, breaking down each of the Carolina Panthers selections in the 2018 NFL Draft.
