It was a disastrous 2017 NFL season for Oakland Raiders quarterback Derek Carr, to say the least. However, there is one former teammate who is confident that he can revert back to his promising form. Former NFL wide receiver James Jones has played with some of the best quarterbacks in recent league history. Perhaps this […]

The Houston Texans are probably busy doing what 29 other organizations have eyes on at the moment: attempting to figure out how to ensure February football in 2019. But on Friday, they had something of a more serious nature that warranted attention and a public response. A former employee by the name of Kristen Grimes has […]

If there is anything NFL fans can ever count on, it’s that the NFL league office and the NFLPA will rarely see eye0to- eye on something. For example, take the news the NFL announced last month concerning the number of concussions players were diagnosed with this season—281. But NFLPA’s executive director, DeMaurice Smith, has a […]

We’re just two days away from Super Bowl LII between the New England Patriots and Philadelphia Eagles. More bets will be made before (and after) kickoff, but millions and millions of dollars have already been waged on the spread, on the money-line, and on various props. Just like they were in the divisional and championship […]

After recording the first 1,000-yard season of his NFL career, wide receiver Kenny Britt left the Los Angeles Rams for the Cleveland Browns on a four-year, $32.5 million contract this past offseason, with $10.5 million guaranteed.

Former Oklahoma quarterback Baker Mayfield is perhaps the top darkhorse candidate in the 2018 NFL Draft.

The Kansas City Chiefs are starting to get used to life without quarterback Alex Smith, and it seems that Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce has begun doing that in his own unique way. According to Dan Hellie of the NFL Network, Kelce played NFL Madden during a Super Bowl Party, but before getting in on […]

The Baltimore Ravens were one play away from reaching the postseason in 2017. All they needed to do was stop Andy Dalton and the Cincinnati Bengals on 4th-and-12 with under a minute to go in Week 17. Instead, Cincinnati broke Baltimore’s heart while simultaneously sending Buffalo and Bills fans everywhere into a frenzy with a […]

New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick is no stranger to Super Bowl appearances. He has won two Super Bowl titles as the defensive coordinator of the New York Giants in the 1980s and five more as the mentor of the Pats. With that kind of winning experience, Belichick knows how to prepare his team […]

The biggest question already surrounding the Minnesota Vikings this offseason is what they’ll do with all of their quarterbacks. At the forefront of that will be Case Keenum, who is in line to become a free agent after completing his first season in Minnesota.

With the 2017 season coming to a close this Sunday, the next course of action for many teams is preparing for the 2018 NFL Draft. Among its most notable prospects is USC quarterback Sam Darnold. Darnold is projected to go as high as No. 1 overall in this year’s draft due to the bevy of […]

Beating the New England Patriots in a meaningful game is something that has very seldom been done over the last two decades. However, Denver Broncos linebacker Von Miller may have cracked the code. Having played his fair share of crucial games against the Patriots, Miller has accrued quite the scouting report. So much so, he even […]

All hands are on deck for the New England Patriots, as they aim to win the franchise’s sixth overall Super Bowl title this coming Sunday in Minnesota.

A number of teams are already courting impending free agent Kirk Cousins, including the Arizona Cardinals.

The Minnesota Vikings wrapped up a promising 2017 season that saw them finish a win shy of reaching the Super Bowl.

Baltimore Ravens general manager Ozzie Newsome has been one of the most prominent executives in the NFL over the last two decades.

With that in mind, Cousins gave some life to the possibility that […]

Aaron Rodgers has been one of the league’s best quarterbacks for much of his career with the Green Bay Packers. In the process, he has become a diligent student of the game, studying many of the game’s greats to help him build upon his play on the field, including Tom Brady. During an interview on AT&T’s […]

Soon-to-be free agent quarterback Kirk Cousins is set to be the biggest name on the market this offseason after the Washington Redskins went ahead and traded for veteran quarterback Alex Smith.

Do we have a winner? Or, at the very least, do we now possess a clear preseason poll favorite? It’s possible that we do after taking in the words so easily rolled out of the mouth of soon-to-be NFL free agent Kirk Cousins. It appears that Cousins would love to play for the Denver Broncos, […]

It’s hard to say that the Philadelphia Eagles have been lucky with injuries given the season-ending ones suffered by MVP-hopeful quarterback Carson Wentz and star offensive tackle Jason Peters, but ahead of Super Bowl LII, Philly has a fairly clean injury report. The five players listed, running back Jay Ajayi (ankle), defensive tackle Fletcher Cox (calf), […]

In his first season in the league with the Houston Texans, quarterback Deshaun Watson quickly proved to be one of the promising young talents at his position.

One of the most underrated parts of the Philadelphia Eagles’ success in the 2017 season is the job well done by general manager Howie Roseman.

New Giants general manager Dave Gettleman and head coach Pat Shurmur have both indicated that Eli Manning will remain the team’s starting quarterback to start next season.

Over the last 11 seasons, Aaron Rodgers has been the starting quarterback for the Green Bay Packers.

Given the situation at hand, Rodgers had acknowledged that there could come […]

Super Bowl LII is still a couple days away, but according to Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Alshon Jeffery, it’s already a foregone conclusion. Jeffery basically guaranteed the Eagles’ Super Bowl victory over the New England Patriots, as Martin Frank of the Wilmington News Journal notes. “Ain’t no ‘if,’ man,” Jeffery said. “When we win on […]

It’s Super Bowl week which means, for certain NFL teams who’ve failed to reach the big game in a long time, are reminded of these failures. One such organization is the New York Jets. The Jets haven’t reached the Super Bowl since the third edition coming all the way back in 1969 (the 1968 NFL/AFL […]

Alex Smith appears to be off to the Washington Redskins in a blockbuster trade, likely paving the way for Patrick Mahomes to take over as the new Kansas City Chiefs starting quarterback.

Bill Belichick will once again be looking to replace his cabinet as yet again, it’s been savagely cleaned out by 31 other hands.

The New England Patriots completed one of the most amazing comebacks in Super Bowl history last year as they clawed their way back from a 28-3 deficit to beat the Atlanta Falcons.

Mistakes happen when large teams are assembled. It’s simply the nature of the beast and New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady is learning this right now.
