Hopefully this is our last coach firing DURING the season. I’d argue that it’s in poor taste to fire a coach with just two weeks of the season remaining, but I guess some teams want a head start on the search for their next coach. That appears to be the case with the Denver Broncos,…
On this page, I’m going to be providing the free agent signing grades for the notable signings and extensions that occur (most recent first) based on how good a deal the signing team obtained and the type of impact I expect the player to have. The page will be updated as more signings are reported….
Happy Hanukkah! It’s a holiday about a miracle, and at least one team took that literally. The Minnesota Vikings completed the largest comeback in NFL history, a perfect start to the current streak of holidays. Only an hour or two later, something even more unthinkable happened: Ravens K Justin Tucker missed a 48-yard FG AND…
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…
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…
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…
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…
With the trade deadline behind us, all teams now face an invariant truth: unless you sign a fringe player (or Odell Beckham) off the street, you need to win with the guys you have. As it stands, the NFL is still having its most wild season in recent memory. Aaron Rodgers and the Packers hit…
