Although most […]

2017 has been a year filled with high expectations for the Dallas Cowboys. Unfortunately, things have taken a turn for the worst after their 27-7 thrashing at the hands of the Atlanta Falcons.

One of the biggest surprises of the 2017 NFL season is the dramatic rise of the Los Angeles Rams’ offense, and left tackle Andrew Whitworth deserves as much credit as anyone for their success.

The Miami Dolphins aren’t exactly having the sort of season players were likely hoping for, but several key members on the roster still believe the team has talent and should be good. “Adam [Gase] said it really well in the locker room, that’s three weeks out of 16,” quarterback Jay Cutler said after the Monday night debacle […]

Cincinnati Bengals head coach Marvin Lewis isn’t really doing injured running back Jeremy Hill any favors. With Hill needing surgery, Lewis is telling the press that the running back doesn’t actually need it (yet). Man, you have to love when someone tells another person what they should or shouldn’t be doing with their body. Especially […]

Somehow forgotten this season, Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton is good at the game of football. Maybe he hasn’t developed into the top-tier star some were once projecting, but he remains one of the few “actually good” gunslingers in the National Football League. Over the weekend, Cam Newton managed to join some rarefied company, as […]

Cameron Wake is a good player on an iffy team. The Miami Dolphins do have some built in excuses for this substandard season, though, as it lost its starting quarterback before the season even began and replaced him with a retired gunslinger who was close to calling games for FOX.

Deshaun Watson is injured, but appears to be the franchise player the Houston Texans were hoping for. The Cleveland Browns, who are a debacle, despite drafting DeShone Kizer, are still looking to find such an amazing talent. Supposed Browns fan, and NBA megastar, LeBron James is apparently not happy the latter of the two franchises […]

People who own National Football League franchises are really just billionaires who never grew up. A good recent example of this is the rift between Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones and Atlanta Falcons owner Arthur Blank. These two older white men are, apparently, not on the best of terms. Due to the entire “Jones has […]

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, […]

Since the San Francisco 49ers acquired quarterback Jimmy Garopollo from the New England Patriots just before the NFL trade deadline, there has yet to be any clarity reached on the situation.

This past week has been an interesting one, to say the least for veteran tight end Martellus Bennett.

Following his first […]

The Dallas Cowboys have to move on without star running back Ezekiel Elliott.
