Injuries are really taking their toll on the league. The NFC West got a lot more complex, with Rams WR Puka Nacua and 49ers LB Fred Warner hurting their ankles. Nacua may miss week 7, while Warner is done for the year. Baltimore’s lack of healthy bodies is dragging them to the depths of the…
This is a centralized post for all coaching move-related grades (most recent first) now that 2025 has begun. Perfect way to celebrate Black Monday right? For those who aren’t aware, Black Monday is the Monday after the final week of the regular season. The teams that missed the playoffs decide whether to continue with the…
Upsets continue to run rampant across the college football landscape. The 3rd- and 6th-ranked teams both went down, while Penn State lost to Northwestern of all teams. The top two teams, (1) Ohio State and (2) Miami (on a bye this week), seem as entrenched as ever, while the rest of the field is competing…
We’ve reached our first byes of the season, so no Falcons, Packers, Steelers, or Bears this week. Even without them, we witnessed plenty of action. Baltimore and Cincinnati are watching their seasons slip away without QBs Lamar Jackson and Joe Burrow, respectively. Two winless teams finally got on the board, while the last two 4-0…
If you enjoy upsets (let’s be real: you probably do), you enjoyed week 6. The #7 and #9 teams both went down against unranked foes. One of them lost to an 0-4 team. In addition to the surprising outcomes, Navy and Air Force…threw the ball during their matchup? Yeah, this week was nuts. (2) Oregon,…
Breaking news: winning games in the NFL is hard. Several teams just won for the first time this week, while multiple others that hadn’t lost to date fell. Two teams didn’t win or lose. Winning can also come in different styles. Kansas City crushed Baltimore with WR Xavier Worthy back stretching the field. Chicago won…
The line between surviving an upset and being upset is often incredibly thin. One play here or there can be the difference in a week’s narrative. Now that we’re fully into conference schedules, expect chaos to reign. These teams are more familiar with each other, and in some cases you can throw win/loss records out…
We’re starting to learn more about these teams. The Colts are a surprising 3-0, and they just punted for the very first time after a record 19 drives without doing so. However, they’ve benefitted from an easy schedule. The Giants are unsurprisingly 0-3 because of their brutal schedule. Denver could be 0-3 right now, but…
Underachievers show up every year. Clemson, a top-10 team to start the year, already has 3 losses. Oklahoma State, once a proud Big XII contender, lost at home to Tulsa for the first time in decades. And Lee Corso never platform dove during College Gameday like his successor Pat McAfee did. Ok, that last one…
Saying that “a lot happened this week” would be an understatement. Mac Jones led the 49ers to a road win. Miami returned a punt for a TD but allowed a KR TD on the very next play in a loss to the Patriots. Grant Delpit and his Browns did indeed stuff Derrick Henry but got…
