Great football teams beat the opponents they’re supposed to beat and limit mistakes against other top-tier teams. Then, there’s the Denver Broncos. Against the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday, the Broncos were able to absorb the best the Cowboys had to offer, yet it still wasn’t enough for Dallas to overcome the Broncos’ offense. Peyton Manning […]

Luke Joeckel has been lost for the rest of the season with an ankle fracture. The injury means the Jaguars, who just a week ago had two franchise offensive tackles, are now starting backups on their offensive line for the rest of the season. Fittingly, the injury to Joeckel occurred the game after the Jaguars […]

Mother Nature must be a Bengals fan. At least that’s what she made us believe by turning on a heavy rain shower right as the Patriots took the field for their final possession of the game. Although Tom Brady is a great clutch quarterback, the rain and long field were too much for the Patriots […]

Today, the undefeated Seahawks travel to Indianapolis to play a solid Colts team. For the Seahawks, today’s game is simply another challenging matchup that should tell us a little more about the fortitude of the Seahawks on the road. For the Colts, today’s game is much more. The Colts have been a bit of a […]

The Philadelphia Eagles are moving the ball up and down the field. Michael Vick isn’t completing a high percentage of his passes, but the Eagles also have one of the top offensive units in the NFL. Still, the Eagles are just 1-3 after a quarter of the season. Clearly, the Eagles have some problems, and […]

The Browns are, once again, in trouble. At least that’s the feeling I get after their comeback win over the Buffalo Bills last night. Yes, they won the game, but they lost their starting quarterback, Brian Hoyer, for the rest of the season. Now, the Browns must turn back to Brandon Weeden. Hoyer provided a […]

The 2013 NFL season has been, well, strange to this point. Of all the teams in the league, the Bengals have been among the most confusing teams. After losing a thriller to the Bears in week one, the Bengals handled the Steelers relatively easily and narrowly topped the Packers in week three. Then, last weekend, […]

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are going to roll with Mike Glennon, and former Buccaneers quarterback Josh Freeman is out. It was a move everyone saw coming, especially once it became apparent the Bucs couldn’t move Freeman via a trade. The whole situation made the Buccaneers look like the most dysfunctional football team in football led […]

Admittedly, Justin Blackmon’s return to the Jacksonville Jaguars this week will likely go largely overlooked by national audiences. After all, the second year receiver plays for a team with no hope, and the Jaguars need a lot more help on offense than the addition of one receiver. Still, he may be able to make the […]

The Brandon Weeden era in Cleveland appears to be completely over, and quickly forgotten. After winning two straight games for the Browns, Brian Hoyer has his team on top of a weak division, and with the Bills up next, there’s no reason the Browns won’t push their winning streak to three games. Much was made […]

Every year, a few teams do and say things that make us scratch our heads and wonder who exactly makes decisions for those organizations. This year is no different, and as usual, we have a great list of dysfunctional teams trying to win games in the NFL. New York Giants The Giants are a laughable […]

Usually in the NFL we know who the elite teams are, but sometimes we have a hard time defining exactly what that means. Do elite teams have shutdown defenses, high-octane offense and great kickers on special teams? Well, as we’ve seen this year, there’s no one qualification. The Denver Broncos, for example, are the hottest […]

Rex Ryan has made it clear that Geno Smith is the Jets’ starting quarterback for the moment. With Mark Sanchez out for the rest of the year, there’s no legitimate backup for the Jets to turn to, but even beyond that, Ryan’s hands are tied. He simply can’t afford to bench Smith. The Jets’ quarterback […]

When the NFL schedule was first released, tonight’s game in New Orleans between the visiting Dolphins and the home town Saints didn’t look like the greatest Monday night matchup. The Saints were getting Sean Payton back, but their defense was still suspect, and no one knew just what to make of the Miami Dolphins. Now, […]

After another huge victory by the Denver Broncos, we just have to start wondering; will this team go undefeated? The Broncos are led by a veteran head coach that has been there, done that, the defense is relentless, especially playing with a lead, and of course, Peyton Manning is the best in the business at […]
