Frank Gore Must Have a Bigger Impact for Colts in 2016

0 comments by on 2/20/2016

Frank Gore was signed to be a workhorse running back for the Indianapolis Colts, but Andrew Luck’s injury issues never allowed him to get into the rhythm that many expected him to have. He had a solid all-around season, but the Colts will need him to have an even bigger season in 2016 and make […]

Should the Kansas City Chiefs release Jamaal Charles?

0 comments by

The Kansas City Chiefs won 10 of the 11 games they played without star running back Jamaal Charles in 2015, with younger backs Charcandrick West and Spencer Ware rushing for a combined 1,037 yards in 11 starts (4.5 yards per carry). Considering that we have proof the Chiefs can be very successful without Charles and that […]

Ranking the many quarterbacks who may be available this offseason

0 comments by on 2/18/2016

I like to say that there are 32 franchises in the NFL but fewer than 32 franchise-caliber quarterbacks. That’s why it’s a big deal that there are several high-quality quarterbacks scheduled to become unrestricted free agents or projected to become available via release very soon, as well as a handful of good pivots in the […]

Dion Lewis: Grading the New England Patriots RB’s 2015 NFL Season

0 comments by

Dion Lewis was not a household name heading into the 2015 NFL season, but he was able to put his name on the map with the New England Patriots this year. He fit perfectly into the offense alongside of Tom Brady and if it hadn’t been for a season-ending injury would have put up huge […]

Could Matt Forte end up with the Green Bay Packers in free agency?

0 comments by on 2/16/2016

Matt Forte and the Chicago Bears have officially ended any chance that the veteran star running back would be returning to Chicago. He made it clear that the Bears are not going to re-sign him and that he will enter free agency with many different teams already beginning to plan how to bring him on […]

Cleveland Browns will likely keep Josh Gordon after reinstatement

0 comments by

Josh Gordon has been dealing with suspensions due to the problems that he has had off-the-field with marijuana in particular. He has broken the NFL substance-abuse policy many times and is coming off of a full season suspension this year. According to Tony Grossi, however, the Browns are still expected to keep him for the […]

Ronnie Hillman believes the Denver Broncos must keep Brock Osweiler

0 comments by on 2/15/2016

Brock Osweiler started at quarterback for the Denver Broncos when Peyton Manning went down with injury. Many thought he would keep the starting job for the remainder of the season, but that didn’t end up happening. Manning got the starting job back due to some minor late season struggles from Osweiler and ended up winning […]

Cam Newton was more concerned with saving his leg than saving the Super Bowl

0 comments by on 2/10/2016

On Tuesday, nearly 48 hours after he fell flat on his face with an abysmal performance in Super Bowl 50, Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton finally properly addressed the media — and by extension, his fans — as he and his teammates cleared out their lockers in Charlotte. I was looking forward to hearing Newton […]

Was Peyton Manning’s performance the worst ever for a Super Bowl-winning QB?

0 comments by on 2/9/2016

Because the narrative dictates we do so, we’ll continue to say that “Peyton Manning won Super Bowl 50.” The reality, of course, is that the Denver Broncos won Super Bowl 50. And while they didn’t necessarily win the game in spite of Manning, he didn’t do a whole lot to help. Manning’s 56.6 passer rating is […]

Denver vs. Charlotte: Which Super Bowl city is cooler?

0 comments by on 2/3/2016

On Sunday, professional football teams will represent Denver and Charlotte in a battle for NFL superiority. The Denver Broncos and Carolina Panthers will play to bring home the Vince Lombardi Trophy as the winners of Super Bowl 50. But what if the cities were forced to represent themselves? What if the Super Bowl championship was awarded […]

The 50 greatest players in Super Bowl history

As we approach the 50th edition of America’s most celebrated sporting event, The Comeback is taking a look at the 50 greatest players in Super Bowl history. But let’s be clear: simply having played in a lot of Super Bowls doesn’t get you on this list, even if you are/were a quarterback. John Elway, for instance, […]

A statistical look at the history of Brady vs. Manning

For quite possibly the last time, the two most accomplished quarterbacks of this era — Tom Brady and Peyton Manning — will go toe-to-toe next Sunday with a trip to Super Bowl 50 on the line. This is their 17th meeting (including the playoffs): Brady’s Patriots have defeated Manning in 11 of their 16 matchups. […]

This was the most pass-heavy season in NFL history, and four players widely considered to be the league’s top MVP candidates —  Cam Newton, Carson Palmer, Russell Wilson and Tom Brady — are men in charge of throwing passes for some of the biggest Super Bowl favorites. It’s no coincidence that on wild-card weekend we saw […]
