The NFL playoffs got underway last week, and in this round, we had the last 8 battling. Our two 1-seeds finally joined the party, with Kansas City and Philadelphia playing their first games of the postseason. Spoiler alert: both won, though one team had a much easier time with their opponent. We got our Bengals-Bills…
As with the coach-related page, I have made a centralized post for all 2023 GM move-related grades (most recent first) as well. Once again, these moves are typically made on or near Black Monday, the first Monday after the regular season concludes. Moves can occur midseason or after the draft, but these are rare and…
Now that we’ve said goodbye to more than half of the league’s teams, it’s time for the remaining 14 to prove that they should advance in the playoffs. This week, 12 are competing. Kansas City and Philadelphia earned the byes in their respective conferences, getting the week off. Mistakes are amplified in the postseason because…
We’ve made it to the end of the regular season, which means it’s time for my final power rankings! Eighteen teams said goodbye this week, though many of them knew the end was upon them weeks ago. Maybe even months ago for a select few. They’ll all have the draft and free agency to try…
This is it. Everything that the 128 FBS teams have gone through has culminated in this moment. Now, only two teams remain. One of them is a juggernaut SEC champion. They’re 14-0 and the defending national champions. The other is a Cinderella story with a first-year head coach. They are relying on a QB who…
During the final week of the regular season, some teams are playing for playoff spots or division titles. Some are playing for seeding. Others are playing for draft positioning. And some are simply waiting for their seasons to mercifully end (sorry Colts fans). A few teams don’t even seem to care what happens, as evidenced…
Third straight holiday weekend, so Happy New Year! The resolution for most teams: make the playoffs. Now that we’re in the final two weeks of the regular season, we’re going to focus on the playoff races around the league. Of course, if something really notable happens with an eliminated team (such as #1 overall pick…
If you’re reading this and your team is playing in one of these bowls, congratulations! Your team is at least 6-6 (unless it’s Rice…5-7 got you in due to your school’s academic progress rate!), and they’ve achieved one of their season-long goals. If your team isn’t here, then you just love football, and hopefully you’ll…
Here we are! After a long wait and many exciting bowls, we finally arrive at the College Football Playoff. Georgia comes in as a heavy favorite, but the games aren’t played on paper. They play Ohio State, a team who didn’t even make their conference title game and unjustifiably backed in. Kindly see the USC…
Merry Christmas everyone! Due to the fact that the holiday fell on a Sunday, most of our NFL action took place on Saturday this week, which is a rarity. Fittingly for the holiday season, we had some miracle finishes for the second week in a row. Minnesota overcame the Giants on a career-long 61-yard FG…
