These […]

New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick typically doesn’t reveal much about matters relating to his own team to the media, instead saving his possibly-genuine praise for upcoming opponents. The six-time Super Bowl winning coach has a habit of paying hyperbolic compliments onto players or teams the Patriots are getting ready to face, though it’s […]

New York Jets quarterback Sam Darnold is expected to undergo a series of tests and checkups after taking a hard hit during Sunday’s 35-9 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs.

The New York Jets face the Kansas City Chiefs in the most lopsided game of Week 8, which means running back Le’Veon Bell will have a tantalizing opportunity to make a statement against his former team. Bell was released by the Jets on Oct. 13 after 17 disappointing games in New York. He averaged 3.3 […]

The New York Jets suffered yet another defeat on Sunday, falling to the Buffalo Bills in an ugly 18-10 affair.

Any way you slice it, Adam Gase has been an utter failure as head coach of the New York Jets. Quarterback Sam Darnold — whom Gase was specifically hired to mold — is regressing in his third season.

The NFL has made an increasing effort in recent years to protect its quarterbacks, primarily in the form of stringent penalties for defensive players who come in close contact with passers in the pocket. Perhaps accordingly, QBs began the 2020 season with their safest week in nine years. Zero of the 32 starting quarterbacks were […]

He had his fair share of struggles in recent years and his 2020 campaign started on the wrong foot yet again. He failed to steer the Jets’ offense this time around as his […]

On Sunday, the New York Jets didn’t just look like a team that didn’t practice during the offseason in their 27-17 Week 1 loss to the Buffalo Bills — they looked like a team that was learning the sport of football on the fly.
