What must be done to turn the Washington Redskins around?

The Washington Redskins are a franchise in need of a complete overhaul. Their current roster is lacking talent, and recent reports indicate that favoritism shown by ownership has pushed the coaching staff to the door. Considering the team’s miserable 2013 campaign, it’s likely that owner Daniel Snyder will hold the door as he ushers yet […]

Jay Cutler or Josh McCown, which is the right choice for the Bears?

This weekend, the Chicago Bears will play in what should be a relatively straightforward game. The Bears will be in Cleveland to play the Browns, and possibly more significantly, the game will mark Jay Cutler’s return to the field. Now that head coach Marc Trestman has announced that Jay Cutler, not fill-in Josh McCown, will […]

Teams most likely to choke in the season’s final stretch

The Broncos are back as the Super Bowl favorites

Our obsession with Peyton Manning and the Denver Broncos has, admittedly, been an on-again, off-again affair. At the beginning of the season, it looked like the Broncos were unbeatable. Then, the squad lost to the Colts, who have been beating some of the best teams in the league while faltering to some of the worst. […]

Can the Patriots adjust to life without Rob Gronkowski?

The New England Patriots may be playoff bound, but they’ll be heading into the NFL’s tournament without their star tight end Rob Gronkowski.

The Pittsburgh Steeler won’t post a winning record in 2013, and despite making a run in the middle weeks of the season, Pittsburgh was never able to figure out exactly how to win football games. Now, with a playoff berth out of consideration, the Steelers have to begin to ponder what needs to happen moving […]

Shoddy officiating leaves fans demanding better

Late in Minnesota’s loss to the Baltimore Ravens during Sunday’s early round of games, the Vikings thought they had the game finally wrapped up. A Joe Flacco pass had been intercepted, and without enough times out to save the clock, the Vikings could have took a few knees, ending the game. But then, just when […]

Sunday early games helped narrow down the playoff field

After a wild, snow-filled early round of games, the playoff picture got just a little bit clearer on the AFC side of the bracket, and the NFC bracket tightened up just a bit. Let’s reset our brackets plugging in the current standings. Seeds: AFC NFC 1 Broncos (10-2) Seahawks (11-1) 2 Patriots (10-3) Saints (9-3) […]

As we continue to assess the fallout produced by the firing of Texans head coach Gary Kubiak, we now can begin to consider just who will take over as the Texans’ vacant head coaching position. Owner Bob McNair indicated the Texans would seek a coach with NFL experience, which narrows the field to a select […]

Where the Texans are headed after firing head coach Gary Kubiak

There was little doubt Texans now-former head coach Gary Kubiak was going to be fired at the conclusion of the Texans’ most disappointing season in franchise history, and that was before the Texans lost for the second time in as many weeks to the Jacksonville Jaguars. Now, with Kubiak officially ousted as the Texans’ top […]

Who’s first in line for the top draft pick in 2014?

If the NFL season were to end at this exact moment, the Houston Texans, a team that had Super Bowl aspirations at the onset of the season, would be first in line for the 2014 NFL draft. What a difference a season makes. Still, the season isn’t over just yet. As we turn towards the […]

Should Rex Ryan lose his job over the Jets’ offensive implosion?

After fighting their way into postseason contention in spite of preseason expectations, the New York Jets are once again falling back to earth, and they’re doing so at an alarming rate. Since the bye week, the Jets have lost three games in a row by a combined total of 79 to 20. With the Jets […]
