Master of Matchups (guest: Evan Silva) - a podcast by The Football Girl

Host Pat Fitzmaurice (@Fitz_FF) is joined this week by special guest Evan Silva (@evansilva), senior football editor at Rotoworld. Evan explains how he befriended Fitz’s dad, a fellow Marquette University graduate, at a beloved Chicago bar, and how he went from double-majoring in history and philosophy to writing about football for a living. Evan also talks about the gigantic weekly matchups column that he writes for Rotoworld and everything that goes into writing a piece that often exceeds 15,000 words.

With the Alliance of American Football just finishing its second week of play, Evan talks about his headfirst plunge into the AAF and which players and coaches have impressed him so far. He also discusses the NFL’s resistance to the data revolution, the free-agent classes at running back and wide receiver, and why Kyler Murray might be the most interesting member of this year’s rookie class.
