In what’s quickly becoming an annual tradition, people have been getting up in arms over Madden ratings.

However, EA was way off the mark with their egregious oversight of giving New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady […]

Talk of Seattle Seahawks safety Earl Thomas somehow landing with the Dallas Cowboys still hasn’t completely gone away.

The New York Giants received some criticism for their decision to pass on a quarterback with the No. 2 pick in the draft in favor of a running back in Saquon Barkley.

Former New York Giants head coach Ben McAdoo has fired some pretty pointed shots at the Eagles as well as a couple of Giants players in his first public comments since his firing last year. It’s only fitting that he fire some shots at the city rival Jets as well. McAdoo, who has had a […]

Former New York Giants head coach Ben McAdoo didn’t have very good starting offensive tackles at his disposal last season. And apparently, McAdoo thinks the Giants still don’t have anyone who’s much good at those positions, as Paul Schwartz of the New York Post notes. While McAdoo thinks Nate Solder’s addition will help, he doesn’t […]

Former New York Giants head coach Ben McAdoo is high on his old team, who he believes will win the NFC East this year.

Ben McAdoo’s time with the New York Giants didn’t end as well as he’d like after he was fired for a disastrous 2017 campaign.

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette is one of the many NFL players unhappy with their “low” Madden 19 rating.

However, according to Madeline Kenney of […]

New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning has not been shy about his praise for running back Saquon Barkley. However, even he knows that physical prowess means nothing until the pads come on.

In each of the last two years, the Cincinnati Bengals have struggled to break through after falling well short of the playoff in each campaign.

Ben McAdoo had a pretty forgettable tenure as head coach of the New York Giants. His 2017 campaign was simply disastrous. He went 2-10 through 12 games and ended Eli Manning’s incredible consecutive starts streak for Geno Smith, which ended up being the final nail in his coffin. But as McAdoo tells Peter King of […]

Through his first two seasons in the NFL, Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry has shown flashes of promise that he can be a cornerstone piece in the backfield.

The Carolina Panthers decided to make a change at offensive coordinator this offseason, with Mike Shula making way for Norv Turner.

Turner acknowledges […]

The Jacksonville Jaguars defense will have a new person on the Mike this season. Linebacker Myles Jack is set to step into the middle of that defense in place of the retired Paul Posluszny.

The New York Giants underwent some major changes this NFL offseason. However, they made it clear that quarterback Eli Manning will be under center until for the time being. Manning has essentially been granted a clean slate to prove himself after a tumultuous 2017 campaign. In a lot of ways, it is similar to when his […]

Chicago Bears running back Jordan Howard has done a stellar job of establishing his role as the team’s early-down back.

According to Dan Wiederer of the Chicago Tribune, he […]

It goes without saying that New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady has never been one to rely on his mobility. Fortunately, that has not prevented him from occasionally creating plays with his legs in the pocket. It is a trait that Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins mentioned during the NFL Network’s unveiling of Brady as the No. […]
