We’ve reached our first byes of the season, so no Chiefs or Panthers this week. Even without them, we witnessed plenty of action. A rookie defender became a star, with Jets’ DE (and #2 overall pick) David Bailey earning a trio of sacks against the Browns. Three games went to overtime, with one ending in…
I’ll be keeping track of the various NFL trades that occur throughout 2026 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. Unless a specific trade is really notable, I’ll only be grading trades involving players, not…
If it seems like more players are getting hurt than ever before, I’m afraid you might be right. I hate to keep starting articles this way, but the hits don’t stop coming. Ravens QB Lamar Jackson left with an ankle injury. Bengals WR Ja’Marr Chase suffered a concussion on a dirty hit. Denver lost both…
On this page, I’m going to be providing the free agent signing grades for the notable signings and extensions that occur in 2026 (most recent first) based on how good a deal the signing team obtained and the type of impact I expect the player to have. Please note that an offseason signing cannot be…
We were treated to both good and bad surprises this week. Vegas moved to a surprising 3-0 after their thrilling win over NO (thanks to the return of TE Brock Bowers). The Rams and Broncos provided an SNF classic that could double as a Super Bowl preview. However, many teams suffered tough injuries. Miami RB…
Week 2 brought us plenty of good and bad. On the good side, Seahawks WR Jaxon Smith-Njigba is still a monster regardless of who plays QB. He caught 3 TDs in a one-man show. Cleveland and Green Bay earned their first wins in a very long time, giving those fanbases something to cheer! On the…
Week 1 always excites, which is why I need to provide an immediate disclaimer: please don’t overreact. You’ll see shock results and major conclusions drawn with the smallest of sample sizes. Unless they confirm what you already knew, they could be mirages. Carolina scored 37 points, only to cede 59 to Chicago. Cincinnati’s defense forced…
The moment we’ve been waiting for is finally here. The Patriots and Seahawks kick off the 2026 season on Wednesday in a much-anticipated matchup, but first, I thought I’d look at where the various teams stand on opening week. After all, we’ve now seen these teams in the preseason. Please don’t be mad if your…
Just like that, the preseason is over. It goes by quickly with only 3 games! Starters have had their chance to get in sync (the few who played at least), camp battles have been won and lost, and roster spots have been secured. Players now await the decisions of their front offices. Each team must…
Unfortunately, much like last year, teams mainly rested their starters in week 2 of the preseason. Those who played only did so for a series or two. That didn’t stop us from seeing interesting and important football! Carolina’s trouncing of Jacksonville ended at the 2-minute warning due to lightning. Cleveland’s game against Buffalo had an…
