Indianapolis Colts: Frank Gore Must Step Up As A Leader

Over the past two seasons, Frank Gore has expressed frustration and disappointment with the Indianapolis Colts. His emotions are understandable, after the Colts missed the playoffs in both seasons. When Gore signed with the Colts, it was assumed that he was one of the few missing pieces to help them push into the Super Bowl. […]

Green Bay Packers: Is Ty Montgomery A Capable Every Down Starting RB?

The Green Bay Packers are heading into the 2017 NFL season as one of the favorites in the NFC once again. Most of that has to do with the presence of Aaron Rodgers on the roster, but the offense they have put around him is impressive as well. One question mark on the offensive side […]

Jay Cutler was once considered one of the bright young quarterback talents in the NFL. Back in those days, he was the leader of an up-and-coming Denver Broncos team, but then a major trade occurred.

Houston Texans: What Can Be Expected from Lamar Miller in 2017?

Lamar Miller was signed last offseason in free agency by the Houston Texans and was expected to make a major impact last year. Unfortunately, his consistency was a problem all season long. He did end up making an impact, but there were some concerns following the season that he might not live up to the […]

10 free agents who should be in high demand after 2017 NFL Draft

Each year after the NFL Draft is completed, a second miniature wave of free agency rolls through the league. In fact, it’s already underway with Jamaal Charles joining the Denver Broncos, Shareece Wright joining the Buffalo Bills and Bradley Sowell joining the Chicago Bears. But as teams continue to analyze their rosters post-draft, expect more moves to trickle […]

Don’t get your hopes up for Jamaal Charles with the Denver Broncos

I stared out the window trying to think of a kinder way to say this while still getting my point across, but screw it: Jamaal Charles is practically worthless as a professional football player. I did write “practically” rather than “totally,” because pro athletes are odds-defying freaks and there’s a slim chance that Charles suddenly […]

Not satire: The Cleveland Browns are a good football team

In the NFL, it’s almost silly how often and how quickly teams jump from the basement to the penthouse. About half of the playoff field turns over every year, and at least one team has jumped from dead last to first place in its division in 13 of the last 14 seasons. That includes teams […]

Dalvin Cook on Vikings: ‘I’m Just Going to Come In and Work My Tail Off’

Dalvin Cook was considered to be one of the top offensive players in the 2017 NFL Draft class, but suffered a serious draft day fall. Not only did he fall late into the first round, he fell all the way to the No. 41 overall pick. Being drafted in the second round was humbling and […]

Indianapolis Colts Select Safety Malik Hooker at No. 15

Chris Ballard has been completely revamping the Indianapolis Colts’ defense since being hired as the new general manager. That didn’t change with the Colts’ first round pick in the 2017 NFL Draft. Indianapolis happily went out and drafted Ohio State star safety Malik Hooker with the No. 15 overall pick. Last season at Ohio State, […]

Philadelphia Eagles Select DE Derek Barnett at No. 14

Derek Barnett was one of the elite pass rushers in the 2017 NFL Draft class and had quite a few teams interested in him throughout the draft process.

Haason Reddick may not have been a hyped up name in the 2017 NFL Draft, but the Arizona Cardinals were happy to take him with the No. 13 overall pick. Reddick will be yet another piece added to keep the Cardinals’ defense at the top of the league. Last season with the Temple Owls, Reddick […]

Houston Texans Trade Up to No. 12 To Select QB Deshaun Watson

The 2017 NFL Draft has been full of surprises early on and the Houston Texans were a big part of that. Afer trading away Brock Osweiler earlier in the offseason, it was obvious that they wanted a quarterback in the draft. Deshaun Watson slid past both Mitch Trubisky and Patrick Mahomes, but the Texans aggressively […]
