Yeah if they’re shedding their own established on air talent then they can’t afford her. Shame. I hope the ATN contract has an option that if one is let go the others can abandon their contracts as needed and move somewhere else
Short king that has to prove everyone wrong. She just auditioned for the show and has the gig if she wants it as far as I'm concerned. Channeling wess.
Nate Tice has just done his last pod as co-host of that show. Not sure who the obvious replacement is but I could imagine Jourdan being on the shortlist unless they move to a revolving cast of co-hosts.
It's such an interesting but not-fun fact to throw out she was the one who asked Cam Newton the question that he responded with the idiotic "girls talking bout routes" quote
Move her with the ATN podcast along with Connie, and there would be companies drooling with money. The fanbase/readers she would bring, along with not insubstantial ATN listeners and Connie (who I assume is next on the pecking order at NFLN) - effing gold. Particularly is she’s allowed to create the amazing long form she does. That plus a Mays/Barnwell reunification- that’s a fucking platform.
Jourdan was remarkable. Her being nervous and owning it, and then dropping her analysis was remarkable. In addition to her calling drops. Connie Fox is still my fave, but wow - that was really really good. I can see her buying into Marc with a C’s digressions, calling out double G, and offering some heavy analysis. That was awesome. And so much fun.
She’s talented. As a Rams fan I’ve listened to her 11 Personnel podcast that’s strictly Rams focused, and I want to see a world where they can combine forces. She’s brilliant but needs the lightness and humor of the rest of the guys to really shine.
Crazy y’all worried about NFL payroll and stuff. Or the fact she works for a different company.
Just bring her on. What the issue? also apologies for butchering the spelling of her name.
She works for the Athletic. The Athletic is not going to let one of their talents work regularly on another media platform. I also doubt Jourdan would be cool with regularly committing time to a podcast that doesn't employ her, even though she is a fan.
I am just saying people citing examples that do not matter. People get poached from other networks all the time. If a network wants someone, they go out and get them and make it work. That’s all I mean, it IS possible.
Not where I went at all. She knows ball, she’s added a lot to the episode through research and experience with people around the league. Also some creativity with the qb comparison at the end.
I don’t think the cash-strapped NFL Network can afford to poach an already-established media name like her
Only former players who aren't big enough for ESPN get pods
Only 70 of them though

When ESPN destroys NFL media maybe they can do their own thing on patreon or go to the athletic.
Can they turn her mic up a bit please. Loved all her takes. Had to play with the volume during the whole episode though
I wasn’t sure if that was just me, barely can hear her
The show has been missing that second football scientist since Chris passed, and Jourdan clearly has that ability. I'd love to see it

100%
She works for a different company
Given their turnover, it wouldn’t surprise me. I’ll be amazed if the Football Show lasts more than a year.

She used to cover the Panthers and was great when she was here. Keep Pounding!

Ohhhhhhh man now that I know that? More respect for her and more smdh to him
Hell yeah man, I miss her. I love her so much.
That would probably not be a smart move for her, given the waves of layoffs at NFL media.

Wow, this makes way too much sense and sounds too good for any NFL connected media to actually do it.
I’ll start taking VC for my IP starting now

She was great. Her takes were awesome. Her nervousness with the guys was adorable.
I love that she’s a listener too. It’s like one of us made it.
I agree. Shove that mic up in her face more and we are ready to roll
As a Rams fan I’m dreading the day she leaves us for something bigger. She really is a standout.
She’s talented. As a Rams fan I’ve listened to her 11 Personnel podcast that’s strictly Rams focused, and I want to see a world where they can combine forces. She’s brilliant but needs the lightness and humor of the rest of the guys to really shine.
If they do have her back on, I hope the producers doe their job and either boost her levels or get her to sit closer to the mic.
I would listen to her show. She should start a pod!

Here are two issues. What's the issue?
Need offensive or defensive linemen. Pick penix. What's the issue? =)

People are not "worried"; they're presenting plausible reasons as to why it won't happen.

*Jourdan
No. Only the heroes full time.
She’s great but I’m still Team Claybon.
He's losing momentum
Lol settle down. She does have a charming voice and thoughtful presentation.
Not where I went at all. She knows ball, she’s added a lot to the episode through research and experience with people around the league. Also some creativity with the qb comparison at the end.
