Today, it was announced that the NFL and the former players suing the league for compensation and treatment of possible concussion related disorders. The league has agreed to spend $765 million, and the settlement would cover all former players, about 18,000 total, but the settlement is still subject to approval by a federal judge. The […]

The Dallas Cowboys are the new San Diego Chargers. By that, I mean, the Cowboys are a chronically underachieving team, but they’ve bought into the rebirth mantra that owner Jerry Jones has been preaching, and frankly, they should. The Cowboys play in a very competitive division, but it’s not necessarily the best in football. Every […]

Sometimes in the NFL, you have to be at the right place at the right time. It seems Jets quarterback Matt Simms has positioned himself at just that perfect place at the perfect moment, and in doing so, he’ll have a game to show the New York Jets he can help the team. Simms, who […]

Aside from their overt dysfunction, the New York Jets are hardly a noteworthy team. They have a solid defense, but their offense lacks a triggerman that can make sound decisions and put the ball where it needs to go. Still, dysfunction is a good story line, and as it turns out, the Jets still haven’t […]

Comparisons between Raiders quarterback Terrelle Pryor and Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson should end after we mention that both are young, athletic quarterbacks capable of extending plays and buying themselves time. Boom. Done. Finished. That’s where comparisons should end, but naturally, the two quarterbacks are being compared more than ever following Terrelle Pryor’s most recent outing. […]

Braylon Edwards is now on the market after being cut by the New York Jets, but he’s likely going to garner significant interest from a number of teams around the league. Although he’s a chronic under-achiever in the NFL, he’s still good enough to improve many rosters around the league, and frankly, his services probably […]

When the Green Bay Packers brought in quarterback Vince Young, there were absolutely no expectations. Young was once a somewhat successful starting quarterback for the Tennessee Titans, but in recent memory, he had only made headlines by calling the Eagles a dream team at a time when he backed up Michael Vick. This is also […]

If you don’t have a quarterback in the NFL, you’re doomed. Period. If that statement remains true, there are already a number of teams doomed before the season even starts. Even though there are quarterbacks out there that could be brought in, teams need to do so now before it’s too late. Here’s a few […]

Just when it looked like Mark Sanchez had the Jets’ quarterback competition wrapped up, he may have been dealt a bad break, handing the job back to Geno Smith. Mark Sanchez exited the Jets’ game against the New York Giants after being hit by defensive tackle Marvin Austin with an apparent throwing-shoulder injury. Sanchez played […]

Tonight the Jacksonville Jaguars are hosting the offense they hope to emulate. Running back Maurice Jones-Drew said this week that the Jaguars hope to run 85 offensive plays per game. Considering the team’s offensive woes, we find that mark highly unachievable, but if the Jaguars hope to accomplish it, they better have their notebooks out […]

After last night’s terrible performance by Raiders quarterback Matt Flynn, many will be quick to jump on the Terrelle Pryor bandwagon. Sure Flynn played poorly. In fact, with a stats line featuring nearly as many completions to the defense as the offense, one can make the case that Flynn isn’t worthy of starting for anyone […]

The Lions are in desperate need of a quick start to being the 2013 regular season, and right now, they’re not set up to pull that off. Their biggest problem revolves around Calvin Johnson’s absence from the lineup and the extended problems that causes. There’s no doubt that Johnson is the Lions single biggest offensive […]

The Patriots struggled in a big way last night against the Detroit Lions. Tom Brady wasn’t bad, but an interception prevented his stats line from looking good by any stretch and the lack of a touchdown pass is very uncharacteristic. The Patriots offense was without Danny Amendola, and that was bound to hurt the team’s […]
