Colin Kaepernick and Derek Carr are similar in many ways. Both are second-round picks, play in the Bay Area, are young quarterbacks and have pronounced strengths and weaknesses. Carr is a rookie with the Oakland Raiders and has started all season, unseating veteran Matt Schaub in the preseason. The former Fresno State star has provided […]

This year, some embarrassing team will emerge from the NFC South as a division winner and subsequent playoff team. The NFL has only had one team with a losing record make the postseason, although we could have a second in 2014 should the New Orleans Saints not win out. Since the 1970 AFL-NFL merger, there […]

We’ve been eliminating NFL MVP candidates on a weekly basis this season, and last week we got that list down to just two men — Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers and Houston Texans defensive end J.J. Watt. But after Rodgers struggled against the Buffalo Bills, we’re cheating by adding a third name back to […]

This is a sponsored post that I was compensated for or received a discount for the service. All opinions are mine. This NFL season, Lenovo and Onion Labs have created a hilarious online series entitled Tough Season, which portrays a fantasy owner named Brad as someone that not only manages his team, but also interacts […]

Former Cleveland Browns quarterback Bernie Kosar had some strong words for the organization after a brutal shutout loss to the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday. Kosae said that the organization’s front office is “uneducated”, and that the team’s struggles this season “makes me want to throw up”. “They don’t know how to lead and organize and […]

Nothing is crazier than the NFL in December, outside of perhaps March Madness and Courtney Love. Football is America’s pastime and it doesn’t appear it will disappoint its legions of fans this year, with chaos breaking out all over the nation. In the NFC, nine teams are still in the mix for the playoffs, with […]

The AFC playoff picture is finally starting to clear up, but there is still plenty to settle. On Sunday, three divisions were clinched while a few others were all but eliminated from contention, leaving a trio of spots for six true contenders. In the NFL, anything can happen. It will be a wild ride for […]

A recap of all that was stupid during the 15th weekend of the 2014 NFL season… The stupidest penalty call, AFC edition Tackling a guy by his jersey doesn’t constitute a horse-collar. That led directly to a Cincinnati touchdown. Officials have to stop guessing on these fast-paced calls. Replay review on penalties would help. The […]

If the Bears win, Carolina remains in first place in the NFC South. If New Orleans wins, they’ll take a half game lead on the Panthers in the division. So how […]

For those organizations, the internal evaluations will begin, with some leading to changes among the front office and coaching staffs. For others, it will be a time to pour over the roster and figure out what needs to […]

The National Football League has given plenty of people second chances. In the past, players such as Michael Vick and Plaxico Burress have been imprisoned only to return to an NFL field. In comparison, Ray Rice and Adrian Peterson, who struck their fiancee and child respectively, should have no problem getting a chance at redemption […]
