Third straight holiday weekend, so Happy New Year! The resolution for most teams: make the playoffs. Now that we’re in the final two weeks of the regular season, we’re going to focus on the playoff races around the league. Of course, if something really notable happens with an eliminated team (such as #1 overall pick…
If you’re reading this and your team is playing in one of these bowls, congratulations! Your team is at least 6-6 (unless it’s Rice…5-7 got you in due to your school’s academic progress rate!), and they’ve achieved one of their season-long goals. If your team isn’t here, then you just love football, and hopefully you’ll…
Here we are! After a long wait and many exciting bowls, we finally arrive at the College Football Playoff. Georgia comes in as a heavy favorite, but the games aren’t played on paper. They play Ohio State, a team who didn’t even make their conference title game and unjustifiably backed in. Kindly see the USC…
Merry Christmas everyone! Due to the fact that the holiday fell on a Sunday, most of our NFL action took place on Saturday this week, which is a rarity. Fittingly for the holiday season, we had some miracle finishes for the second week in a row. Minnesota overcame the Giants on a career-long 61-yard FG…
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…
