The New Orleans Saints have been a surprisingly good team this season. There’s plenty of different reasons for that. One of them, at least one of the more underrated ones, has been the play of Alvin Kamara. He’s come as a shocking plus for the team. A shock to nearly everyone, but head coach Sean Payton. […]

When the Green Back Packers released tight end Martellus Bennett, everyone assumed the New England Patriots would scoop him up. Those people were correct.

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver John Ross entered the National Football League with a ton of hype. After running one of the fastest 40-yard dashes in Scouting Combine history, people projected him to be a solid player when hitting the league. People, from experts to fans, apparently didn’t project enough of a learning curve for the […]

Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton always has the weirdest press conferences.

If you thought the week of reports regarding Vontae Davis happened to be weird, it just got much stranger, as the Indianapolis Colts have announced that the defensive back has been released from the team.

Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones, if nothing else, will have the back of his players even if the words coming out of his mouth are absurd. While what he claims about Dak Prescott isn’t exactly insane, it is a bit of a stretch given the play of other quarterbacks in the National Football League at the […]

Pittsburgh Steelers veteran quarterback Ben Roethlisberger has seen his role change a bit as of late. Once known as a wild, if not incredible gunslinger who didn’t mind hurling the football downfield even if a teammate is double teamed, he is now being tagged as a game-manager. Not exactly the category of quarterback one would ever […]

The Cleveland Browns and head coach Hue Jackson are welcoming back formerly suspended wide receiver Josh Gordon. A talented, yet troubled player, Gordon has lately claimed he is a different person than he was before.

In a lede that isn’t mean to be purposely misleading, San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan admits that his wife is seeking information about newly acquired quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo. Before you go bonkers, let’s add the context. According to the 49ers head coach, everyone wants information about when Jimmy Garoppolo will start playing. This includes […]

It is why the latest stuff coming out of Newton’s mouth should have the […]

New York Giants head coach Ben McAdoo isn’t exactly having a great season. Now, according to numerous reports, it is believed that there’s almost no chance he will be back next season.

Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones is apparently not too worried about the collusion case facing the National Football League.

People are starting to wonder if the New York Giants will move on from quarterback Eli Manning.

Jacksonville Jaguars rookie running back Leonard Fournette has missed a bunch of games. First it was due to injury. However, at least last week, it was due to reasons that had nothing to do with the dynamic back’s health. Instead, it was because he missed a team photo and a variety of other issues that […]

The Baltimore Ravens haven’t exactly been good on offense this season. A lot of the blame goes to the passing attack. It isn’t only Joe Flacco coming under fire, though. Receivers are also getting a lot of the criticism. This is not lost on talented receiver Breshad Perriman. Breshad Perriman, who isn’t exactly having his best […]

Former New York Jets quarterback Chad Pennington, if nothing else, was a more than competent gunslinger during his time in the National Football League.

Eli Manning might not be much longer in the Big Apple. According to reports, New York Giants ownership told scouts to begin looking at college quarterbacks with a more keen eye.

If you thought anyone in the Jacksonville Jaguars organization would be mad with Jalen Ramsey after being ejected for fighting with AJ Green, you would be wrong. Supposed disciplinarian and team VP, Tom Coughlin, has the talented corner’s back to the fullest. “I want to voice my support for Jalen Ramsey following the incident in […]

Everyone assumes the one player the New England Patriots would never trade is quarterback Tom Brady. After all, he is arguably the greatest gunslinger in the history of the sport. Oddly enough, Tom Brady doesn’t exactly agree with people that he’s untouchable. In fact, he can envision a time when the Patriots force him out. […]

Detroit Lions running back Ameer Abdullah has a case of the fumbles. This is not lost on him, as he is taking responsibility for them, but only after adding a nice caveat in the mix. “I’m just going to keep doing the same thing I do,” Abdullah said, via the Detroit Free Press. “I play running back, man. I get […]

Brett Hundley put up decent numbers during Monday Night Football. He completed 26 of 38 passes for 245 yards, ran for a touchdown and didn’t have any turnovers. But those numbers are minus some context. The sort that doesn’t paint the Green Bay Packers quarterback in as nice a light. Good thing head coach Mike […]

Cleveland Browns coach Hue Jackson is currently coming under fire from every direction.

In what could be an attempt to save its season, the Atlanta Falcons have worked out cornerback Byron Maxwell. For those unaware, the veteran defensive back was last with the Miami Dolphins, before being cut by the team a few weeks ago.

Josh Gordon is returning from suspension. That’s the good news for the Cleveland Browns. The bad?

In an interview with GQ magazine, the wide receiver said he played under the influence “every game,” […]

Kelvin Benjamin was a member of the Carolina Panthers. That was until the franchise moved him to the Buffalo Bills at the trade deadline.

New York Giants coach Ben McAdoo recently said that every position on the team was up for grabs. At the time, he wouldn’t even fully commit to quarterback Eli Manning. A few hours later, and it now appears the coach is backtracking from his stance a bit. “He’s our quarterback. I have a lot of […]

In a relatively shocking move, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are shutting down quarterback Jameis Winston for a few weeks.

Somehow, through magic we can only assume, the New Orleans Saints are a good team this season. It isn’t only the usual high-powered offense, led by Drew Brees, getting the job done.

Tom Savage won’t be able to win the hearts and minds no matter what this season. Having been the original starter for the Houston Texans this season, then being benched for the dynamic Deshaun Watson, he really finds himself in a tough spot. With Watson looking like a legit franchise gunslinger prior to going out […]
