Stramash!: Recent Episodes
Stramash! Podcast
Broadcasters Paul Mitchell and Cameron Hobbs are joined by a guest every week to discuss all things NFL, but from a Scottish Point of view.
Stramash is back with all the preseason content you didn't know you needed... and this week, our Patreons have done it again. While Cameron makes a suspiciously brief cameo before disappearing for the evening, Gordon, Jamie, and Charles dig deep into the AFC West. The Chiefs, the Chargers, the Broncos all get their moment. But the main event? The Las Vegas Raiders: nine new starters, the Max Crosby saga, a generational running back getting hit behind the line, and a #1 overall pick quarterback learning from Kirk Cousins and Tom Brady. Could the Raiders actually be more interesting than we thought?
Oh, and we also have big news about Stramash Live.
Cameron, Charles and Gordon turn their attention to the AFC South. Cameron's back from Canada (don't worry, he's not becoming a Mountie), Gordon's got Airbnb beef, and Charles is freshly tanned from Lisbon. The lads break down all four division teams, from the Texans' fearsome defense and C.J. Stroud's playoff ceiling, to the Colts' Daniel Jones problem, a Titans rebuild held together by hope, and the Jacksonville Jaguars…stable, dangerous, and sitting on two mouth-watering London games. Can Trevor Lawrence take the next step, or will the Jags bottle it again?
Cameron, Charles and Gordon drag themselves through the AFC East, a division that features two teams rebuilding from the rubble and two teams who are actually pretty good. The Dolphins are ripping the plaster off. The Jets are... the Jets. Geno Smith is their quarterback. Again. Plexico Burress compared playing there to prison, and honestly, fair enough. Meanwhile, the Patriots got A.J. Brown and the Bills got DJ Moore. We discuss all that and more.
Jamie and Gordon bring you a deep dive into the Cincinnati Bengals ahead of the 2026 NFL season. Has their offensive line turned the corner? Does the addition of Dexter Lawrence fix their defensive issues? They also briefly discuss outlooks for the Baltimore Ravens, Cleveland Browns and Pittsburgh Steelers, along with some thoughts about the potential of an NFL game in Scotland after the Tartan Army's exploits in Boston and Miami.
Our esteemed host Paul Mitchell is joined by Ian Steven, Gordon McGuinness, and late addition Charles Paterson to break down two major NFL trades: the Rams acquiring All-Pro edge rusher Myles Garrett from the Browns for a 2027 first-round pick, Jared Verse, and 2028/2029 picks, and the Eagles trading wide receiver A.J. Brown to the Patriots while saving $50m a 2028 first-round pick. They discuss divisional impacts, the Rams’ win-now window with Matthew Stafford and backup options, and what Jared Verse and A.J. Brown bring to their new teams. The group also reviews NFL UK & Ireland’s England-themed Nike jersey rollout and the shambolic American Express presale communication, before briefly making Scotland World Cup predictions and trying to guess Paul's middle name.
Paul is joined by Gordon and Ian on the podcast to react to the schedule
release and the NFL’s newly expanded international slate and key
calendar talking points.
They discuss 49ers–Rams opening the overseas
run at Melbourne Cricket Ground, Ravens–Cowboys in Rio, the
strongest-looking set of London games in years (Colts–Commanders and
Eagles–Jaguars at Tottenham), and other international matchups in
France, Spain, Germany and Mexico, including concerns about travel,
stadium fit and competitive fairness.
The group debates whether the
NFL’s expansion into more windows and platforms (including Netflix) is
growth strategy or overload, then runs through Thanksgiving and
Christmas scheduling and prime-time assignments, flex rules, and Week 1
matchups—highlighting Bills–Texans as the standout early game—before
closing with notes on London ticket pricing, travel plans, and their
podcast award nomination.

picks including QB Carson Beck.

They praise Dallas landin Caleb Downs, break down the Giants’ risky edge/linebacker Arvel Reese pick and Washington’s selection of LB Sonny Styles, and highlight the Eagles’ aggressive move for WR Makai Lemon. In the NFC South they like Tampa Bay’s haul and assess the Saints, Falcons and Panthers, then touch on the Bears, Packers, Lions and Vikings.

We cover LA and wonder what Sean McVey needs to do to get the Rams back up in this division. With a lot of talent on defence, the questions remain on the other side of the ball. We know Goff is capable, but is he able to drive this team forward with the pieces around him. Andy believes the talent is there!
We then look to San Francisco as Cameron shares what he believes the 9ers need to do to continue their form, and while being able to get back to a Super Bowl is unlikely based on history, there does seem to be talent there to ensure the 9ers could remain relevant in a post season conversation.
We then wrap up with the Cardinals, and talk about the progress they can make this year, the talent at receiver, running back and wonder if they could end up going 5-0 to start the season!

Cameron and Paul are joined by Scotland international and Edinburgh Rugby star Henry Prygos as we review our penultimate division, the AFC West.
We start with Henry and his Broncos as we wonder what the Broncos need to do to secure the best of the rest position as we're not sure there's any case for the Chiefs not winning it again. We look at Lock, the young wider receiver core as well as a dangerous running back committee. Henry also talks about the impacts of altitude and how significant it really is to play in.
It is then onto the Chargers, as we wonder what week Herbert needs to be up to speed and starting by for the Chargers to be that 2nd place contender. We talk about the dominant D and how important that is and wonder how this franchise can thrive in their new location and stadium.
We also focus in on the Raiders and Chiefs as we look at the opposite ends of the divisional talent scale. Cameron questions how many stars there are on the team, though we all agree that Carr is certainly capable, does he yet have the weapons for success? As for the Chiefs, we ask Henry what it's like to know you're up against Mahomes for the next 10 years potentially and we try to find a weakness in the Kansas City team.

Cameron and Gordon are joined by Buccaneers fan and Cricketer turned commentator, Charles Dagnall as well as some sour Saints fan called Paul Mitchell to preview the NFC South.
We start in Tamp as we ask Daggers if his Bucs can secure the Super Bowl. We cover the obvious upgrades in what appears to be one of the top offenses in 2020, but we also ask what the weaknesses and concerns are for the year head.
It is then onto the Saints, who are the clear dominators in the NFC South seem to have retained a high level of consistency while adding more talent. Dagger has a bold prediction about which player will come to the fore this year and we question if the recent post season sensations, if the Saints will be distracted by that going forward.
We also focus in on the Falcons and Panthers. Looking at which appears to be on the up and which is on the slide down. Everyone makes their predictions before Cameron doubles down on his Bucs burger bet and could find himself with a substantial beef debt come January!
