The Jacksonville Jaguars might be the surprise team in the National Football League. Despite the still iffy play of quarterback Blake Bortles, behind what is arguably the league’s best defense, Jacksonville appears destined to make the playoffs. About that Blake Bortles kid? He’s no longer a kid. Also, without showing much improvement, he has somehow […]

The Chicago Bears are not exactly good this season. As a direct result of the team’s failings, head coach John Fox is receiving a ton of heat. Some would argue that he is very much on the hot-seat, with it only being a matter of time before the Bears show him the door. John Fox, […]

News surrounding tight end Martellus Bennett will never end, will it? We are still dealing with the entire medical team debacle he started after leaving the Green Bay Packers, and yet here we are, with the (now) New England Patriots talent claiming he didn’t want to be picked up on waivers. “When Bill called and said […]

It could be argued that Cleveland Browns coach Hue Jackson has done an awful job managing rookie quarterback DeShone Kizer this season. From random in-game benchings to publicly calling him out for going to a bar two days before a game, Jackson hasn’t exactly been Kizer’s biggest supporter. Don’t forget that Cleveland also tried to […]

The San Francisco 49ers getting its first win on Sunday is nice, but it doesn’t even light a candle to the story behind Marquise Goodwin’s day. Get your tissues ready. I will wait. Goodwin posted on social media after the game that he and his wife Morgan lost their son due to complications with his wife’s pregnancy. […]

The Denver Broncos has seen its defense get old real quick. Couple that with an iffy offense, and it appears as though there’s little hope to save Denver’s season. The awful play by the Broncos isn’t lost on defensive lineman Derek Wolfe, who did not hold back his thoughts on their awful play. “I think […]

The Buffalo Bills gave up a lot of yards on Sunday. It was a large reason for the team’s loss to a good New Orleans Saints team. Rather than just using the fact that they played a good team as the reason for the letdown, Bills defensive back Micah Hyde is claiming the L as […]

San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan might not the credit he deserves this season due to his team’s win-loss record. Entering Sunday, the Niners had as many wins as you and I did in the NFL, and we aren’t even a National Football League franchise. After Sunday? The 49ers now have one more win than […]

With Teddy Bridgewater back healthy for the Minnesota Vikings many people will wonder about the future of Case Keenum. For good reason too, as the veteran gunslinger has played relatively well while the Vikings have continued to play hot potato — due to injury — at the QB position for the last several seasons. The […]

New York Giants coach Ben McAdoo decided to play it dumb about his hot-seat situation following yet another woeful performance. Rather than addressing actual concerns people might have about him, or his job security, Ben McAdoo rather deflect that talk to … film study! Asked about his job status after Sunday’s loss to the previously […]

The Washington Redskins allowed over 400 yards and gave up 38 points on Sunday. In turn, cornerback Josh Norman is incredibly frustrated with the team’s defense. Rightfully so, if we are being honest, as the Redskins gave up 21 unanswered points. “We’ve got to find some juice, we’ve got to get going. We were so lackadaisical,” […]

Do the Buffalo Bills have an impending quarterback controversy looming? Not so fast, my friends! Despite the National Football League franchise showing Tyrod Taylor the bench on Sunday, the Bills have already stated he will remain the starting gunslinger. This news bit all stems from Buffalo giving Nathan Peterman some time at quarterback during Sunday’s 47-10 […]

On Sunday, Green Bay Packers quarterback Brett Hundley played his best game as a National Football League player. That’s the good news for those who love cheese and football played in the cold. The bad? After the game, the Packers announced that the gunslinger hurt his hamstring during the game. The severity of the injury […]

From the comparisons you never saw coming department, apparently people have been comparing Tennessee Titans rookie cornerback Adoree Jackson to veteran Adam “Don’t call me ” Pacman Jones for some time. Keynodo Hudson, then a defensive administration assistant at USC, was the first to make the connection between Adoree Jackson and Pacman Jones. “He used to […]

Kansas City Chiefs defensive lineman Roy Miller has been arrested on battery charges. According to the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office Department of Corrections, via ESPN, Miller was booked into the Duval County Jail at 4:53 a.m. ET earlier this week.

Remember all those reports about the demise of New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning? From the idea that the front-office told scouts to start finding his replacement to head coach Ben McAdoo saying every position is up for grabs until walking it back? About all of that. Uh … at least according to new reports, […]

Let’s preface talking about Jon Gruden with a personal take. Under almost zero circumstances does this Internet Scribbler believe Jon Gruden will return to coaching. Not when ESPN is paying a ton of money and with the personality not having coached football in forever. It makes almost no sense. And yet, here we are. Jon […]

The Jimmy Garoppolo wait is nearly over. At least we think. According to reports, the San Francisco 49ers plan to debut Handsome Jimmy Garoppolo in Week 12 of the National Football League season. You know who is probably happiest about all of this? You guessed right! “I know everyone is very excited and wants to see him play,” head […]

The Green Bay Packers and Martellus Bennett didn’t exactly end their marriage on the greatest of terms. With fallout still being felt in various areas, the National Football League franchise will reportedly go after the bonus money it gave the tight end when he came to Green Bay. Via Ian Rapoport of NFL Media, the Packers […]

The Arizona Cardinals could sure use a competent quarterback. Quarterback, Carson Palmer, could sure use a healthier body to help play for the Arizona Cardinals. The latter of the two entities is now — cautiously — hoping he could return to the National Football League for the last two weeks of the season. It must […]

Are you ready for your head to explode? Well, that is if you are a Cleveland Browns fans. According to a report, the Browns tried to trade for Terrelle Pryor of the Washington Redskins. For those unaware, or somehow forgot, Pryor was literally on Cleveland last season, but the team elected to not give him the […]

The Cincinnati Bengals have announced that talented running back Jeremy Hill has been placed on the injured reserve. In turn, this likely ends the productive player’s National Football League season. This ends a sincerely bizarre campaign by Jeremy Hill. Formerly a second-round pick in the 2014 NFL Draft, Hill was productive through his first several seasons […]

Pittsburgh Steelers offensive lineman Alejandro Villanueva came under a lot of fire earlier this season over a mishap that happened prior to the national anthem in what was meant to be a showcase of team unity. A military veteran, Alejandro Villanueva, was slightly “more out of” the tunnel than the rest of his teammates, resulting in […]

It is the year 2017, years removed from the Mike Shanahan era of Washington Redskins football, and the coach still can’t stop talking passive-aggressive trash about Robert Griffin III. You might want to read the following quote a few times. It starts with a hint of Mike Shanahan taking full responsibility, before it culminates will […]

If you had Minnesota Vikings kicker Kai Forbath trashing the Washington Redskins, you win a fictional prize. Although, it is worth noting that the wasn’t really bashing the Redskins as much as he was calling the team’s playing surface a debacle. “It’s dirt and they spray-paint it green,” Forbath said, via the St. Paul Pioneer Press’ Chris Tomasson. […]

Poor Tom Brady. All the New England Patriots quarterback was trying to do was post a benign message on social media. Then, because beast, Denver Broncos linebacker Von Miller had a little fun at the future Hall of Famer’s expense. Here is Tom Brady’s completely harmless photo: https://www.instagram.com/p/BbSnE7nhnI4/ Miller posted a photo on Instagram from […]

San Francisco 49ers offensive lineman Joe Staley was removed from the team’s injury report this week. That’s a rather positive sign in regards to a potential return. Even better?

Dion Jordan managed to do the unthinkable. Last Thursday, the maligned Seattle Seahawks player managed to return to football after nearly three years of not playing a snap. In turn, head coach Pete Carroll is pumped out of his mind in regard to the entire ordeal. “Guys are fired up about how hard he played and […]

Players in the National Football League have grown increasingly frustrated with Thursday Night Football. We can now add New York Jets wide receiver Jermaine Kearse to the list of guys who believe the spectacle should go the way of the dinosaurs. “You’re asking guys who play a high volume on one day and literally give it their all […]

Kyle Shanahan and the San Francisco 49ers are truly letting thing play out in regard to newly acquired quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo. It is why it comes as almost no shock that the team announced that CJ Beathard would start at QB for the Niners this weekend. The 49ers are set to play the New York Giants […]

Former Green Bay Packers tight end Martellus Bennett, only moments after landing with the New England Patriots, took aim at team the latter’s team doctor, Pat McKenzie. Now, however, Aaron Rodgers and Jordy Nelson have come out to fully back Green Bay’s entire medical staff. For context first, Bennett absolutely trashed McKenzie and the Packers […]

Thursday Night Football is evil. I mean, it is neat we get to watch some pigskin before Sunday, but at what coast? Well, apparently, it is the ACL of Arizona Cardinals safety Tyvon Branch. Branch hurt his knee while trying to break up a pass to Seattle Seahawks tight end Jimmy Graham in the end zone on […]

Cleveland Browns offensive lineman, and franchise pillar, Joe Thomas is out for the season with injury. Couple in his age with his body starting to fail him, people are already discussing the idea about retirement on behalf of the future Hall of Famer. According to Joe Thomas, he’s not going to let others do that […]

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson took a nasty looking hit during the team’s Thursday Night Football game. After it, per league rules, he was forced into the concussion protocol.  Well, at least he was supposed to be forced into it. What was strange is that the gunslinger never even went to the blue medical tent, […]

Formerly of the New York Jets, among a bunch of other teams, Antonio Cromartie is currently a star in a reality show. However, that’s not the big news coming out of his camp as of late. Instead, it is that Antonio Cromartie is claiming he is being blackballed by the National Football League over protests. “I’m not […]

Thursday Night Football is not most players’ favorite day to play football. After the Seattle Seahawks played on Thursday night, wide receiver Doug Baldwin added himself to the list of guys who believe it to be garbage. Obviously, this likely has a bit to do with too many of his teammates going out with injury. […]

With reports surfacing all over that New York Giants players are turning on head coach Ben McAdoo, some guys are coming out in strong defense of the man.
