What a week we’ve had, eh? Dallas averted disaster against the awful Texans, Joe Burrow exorcised some demons against the Browns, and the Eagles clinched the first playoff spot of 2022. Justin Tucker became the Ravens’ all-time leading scorer, as we knew he inevitably would. Lions’ OT Penei Sewell ran an actual route and caught…
As with coaches, I’ll have an article where I discuss GM moves in one place at the end of the season, but we surprisingly have an in-season firing to discuss. The Titans have moved on from GM Jon Robinson after their blowout loss to the Eagles this past weekend. This was really a shocker because…
Stability and change. Those two concepts may seem to be at odds, but they’re truly the only two constants in the NFL. Stability: Cincinnati continued their winning streak over the Chiefs, Denver couldn’t score, Marcus Mariota got picked off on the final drive with a chance to win and Aaron Rodgers continued to own the…
We’ve finally made it! All the games (except bowls) have been played, we know the conference champions, and we’re about ready to find out who made the CFP. Before the committee releases the official results, I wanted to share who I thought should be in and the order in which they should be ranked. I…
Welcome to the conference championships! For most of these teams, this is the big goal. A select few have CFP dreams. I’m going to be covering every one of the 10 FBS title games, so be ready for a long article. With that in mind, I’m not going to do specific CFP and draft sections…
Happy Thanksgiving everyone! One of the treats of the holiday is extra football. We’ll naturally start with that trio of Thursday football games, but that was just the beginning. Four teams started new QBs (3 of which were intentional; Justin Fields was injured), and we had some awesome comebacks (Browns/Jaguars). One of Brandon Staley’s decisions…
It’s rivalry week! Teams have a knack for showing up in ways they haven’t all year when playing their rivals. These matchups often bring out the best in players and coaches, and this week was no different. Michigan thumped Ohio State despite questions about the Wolverines’ real level. South Carolina showed up to Death Valley…
Much of the same trends that we’ve seen so far this season continued in week 11. The Rams and Panthers continued to lose in poor efforts. Houston continued its march toward the #1 draft pick. Dallas looked like a true contender against a high-quality opponent. The Colts couldn’t protect their QB. None of these things…
When a week has only two matchups in which both teams are ranked, almost any loss by a ranked team is likely going to be viewed as an upset. Beyond (20) UCF’s loss to Navy, which has become somewhat of a yearly occurrence, the top 25 was ravaged by upsets, with (5) Tennessee (blowout), (13)…
Unbelievably, this week of NFL football was so wild that it threw us all even when we were expecting it. The Vikings, experts at one-score nail biters, served up a ridiculous finish once again. We had a matchup between Colt McCoy and John Wolford (I won’t be discussing that one to spare you all; just…
