We’re starting week 9, and since the NFL season now has 18 weeks, that means we’re at the approximate halfway point of the 2022 campaign. I also promised last time that I’d do this again at the trade deadline, and that has just passed, so here we are. Much change has taken place since week…
I’ll be keeping track of the various NFL trades that occur throughout the remainder of 2022 on this page (most recent first). For every trade, I will list the assets each team received, analyze the trade, and provide trade grades for each team. For free agent signings and extensions, see this page. November 1, 2022…
When a season gives you absolute craziness, you take comfort in the things that stay the same. We gave NFL fans in England another awful matchup. Derrick Henry continued to bulldoze the Texans. The Niners owned Sean McVay’s Rams. The Jets and Giants choked when faced with the slightest resistance. Cling to these constants, because…
The first official College Football Playoff rankings of the season come out on Tuesday, so I thought I’d do something a little different. I’m going to discuss each team that I think belongs in the initial top 4 below. I probably won’t agree with the CFP committee (I almost never do), but that’s too bad….
This week started fast and never slowed down. Carolina’s fire sale began with Christian McCaffrey and Robbie Anderson trades…and then they won. Joe Burrow had a career game, Seattle has sole possession of first place in the NFC West, and the Jets and Giants are a combined 11-3 due to cupcake schedules. The best teams…
In a shocking move, the Colts have benched QB Matt Ryan for the rest of the season. The team says that Ryan has a grade-2 separation of his throwing shoulder, but this move is independent of the injury. While surprising, it might not be entirely unjustified. Let’s take a look at how we got here,…
For once, we had a pretty calm week! There was only one true top-25 upset that we probably should have seen coming (LSU over Ole Miss; 10 over 9 doesn’t qualify), while two of the top teams (Georgia and Michigan) were idle. I’ve decided that I’m going to try and put a draft-related discussion at…
What a wacky day. The Giants beat the Ravens after a furious comeback, the Jets beat the Packers without any stress at all, the Buccaneers looked terrible, and the Falcons looked great. Just like everyone thought right? Obviously not, but that’s the point. The NFL is as unpredictable as ever, and I’d certainly think twice…
This is the kind of week that college football fans love. We’ve got SIX top-25 matchups. You normally only see that during rivalry week, conference championship week, and bowl season. Three of those six pit undefeated teams against one another. Plenty of other matchups provided additional intrigue. Let’s keep this intro short and sweet and…
Tom Brady is right. When he responded to a reporter’s question by saying that he’s seen “a lot of bad football” so far this season, he was merely stating the obvious. Maybe it’s the lack of preseason reps or perhaps it’s all the roster changes that took place during the offseason, but most teams are…
