For The Dads is for every guy who needs a place to talk, vent, and laugh about all the insane, hilarious, and chaotic sh** (sometimes literal) that comes with being a dad.
Hosted by Will Compton–NFL Vet, creator of Bussin' With the Boys, and proud dad of two. This show isn’t about expert advice and how fatherhood is the greatest thing on earth—it’s about embracing the love and suck of parenthood every day. From balancing work and family to battling the mental load, fears, and the moments that wreck you in the best way, we dive into it all with honesty, vulnerability, and a sense of humor. Cause at the end of the day... us dads have no idea what we're doing.
Alongside Will is his producer Sherman Young, a recently new father who’s currently deep in the trenches of Fatherhood and loving every minute of it. Together, they’ll break down everything that can go right and wrong (...usually wrong) when you bring tiny humans into this world.
Expect funny parenting stories, laughs, call-ins, advice, weekly themes, and the kind of conversations you’d have over a cold beer in the garage. Whether you’re raising teens or still Googling “how to install a car seat”, For the Dads is the ultimate podcast for dads who are in it, about to be in it, or just trying to do their best while screwing it up along the way.

The NFL's young quarterbacks are making some serious noise in Week 6, and Chase Daniel is heading back into the film room to find out who's actually playing the best football. On this episode of The Breakdown, former NFL quarterback Chase Daniel reveals his Top 6 QB Power Rankings featuring Caleb Williams, CJ Stroud, Jordan Love, Bryce Young, Kirk Cousins and Drake Maye. Who's climbing the rankings, who's playing at an elite level and which quarterbacks are starting to separate themselves? Then it's time to turn on the tape for three major quarterback breakdowns. CALEB WILLIAMS | IS THE NFL FINALLY SEEING HIS FULL POTENTIAL? Caleb Williams is putting his incredible arm talent and creativity on display in Ben Johnson's offense. Chase breaks down the play designs, off-platform throws and unbelievable ability to escape the pocket that make the Chicago Bears quarterback so dangerous. Is Caleb becoming one of the most exciting quarterbacks in football? BO NIX | WHAT'S REALLY GOING ON IN DENVER? It's time for a closer look at Bo Nix and the Denver Broncos offense. Chase examines the missed opportunities, quarterback decision making and execution issues showing up on film. What does Nix need to clean up, and how can Denver get its offense moving in the right direction? BRYCE YOUNG | IS HE FINALLY TURNING THE CORNER? Bryce Young continues to be one of the NFL's most interesting young quarterbacks. Chase studies his pocket movement, accuracy, anticipation and ability to make plays under pressure. Are we starting to see the quarterback Carolina believed it was getting with the No. 1 overall pick? From creative offensive schemes to quarterback mechanics, defensive coverages and the smallest details that change an entire play, Chase uses his 14 years of NFL experience to show you what the broadcast cameras don't. Three quarterbacks. Three completely different stories. And six names battling for the top spot in the Week 6 QB Power Rankings. Which quarterback impressed you the most in Week 6? Let us know in the comments!
