The NFC is crazier than Courtney Love. In a year that screams parity from the hilltops in the NFL, there are still 20 teams with a legitimate chance to make the postseason. In the AFC, 10 teams have records above .500 and two others at 5-5. The NFC only has seven teams with winning records, […]

The Green Bay Packers are the best team in the National Football League. After 11 weeks, Green Bay has established themselves as a juggernaut after smacking around the Mark Sanchez-led Philadelphia Eagles 53-20 at the frozen tundra that is Lambeau Field. The game was supposed to be a match of two top teams, but ended […]

Check out this run by Eddie Lacy after catching an Aaron Rodgers pass. Five different Eagles at least get close enough to get a hand on him, and none can bring him down before he gets to the end zone. That 32-yard TD reception put Green Bay over the 40 point mark, and they’d follow […]

This is not easy to watch – Broncos receiver Emmanuel Sanders got obliterated by Rams safety Rodney McLeod in the third quarter of Denver’s 22-7 loss in St. Louis. McLeod was given an unnecessary roughness penalty, and I wouldn’t be shocked if he got a fine to go along with it. Sanders left the game, wouldn’t return, and […]

This Saints fan is today’s recipient of the nonexistent “worst sports fan in the world” award. Take a look at this video via The Score – Jermaine Gresham tgrots into the endzone with a touchdown, flips the ball up to a Bengals fan, and this Saints fan grabs the ball from her and refuses to […]

At some point winning games may actually be bad for the Cincinnati Bengals. Because winning just enough and squeaking by to edge into the playoffs has continually masked a problem. It goes by the name of Andy Dalton. As the embarrassing performances pile and the quarterback continues to limit the production of an otherwise talented […]

The Cleveland Browns are in first place in the AFC North, and this church in Atwater, Ohio has the perfect explanation as to why. Yep, that’ll do it. Well played.

No one expected the Jets to be quite this bad in 2014 but their season is in complete shambles. Many saw an aging and over the hill Michael Vick quarterbacking the team at some point this season and sure enough he’s now the starter for this 2-8 team. It’s hard to believe this is the […]

Week 11 in the NFL is here, and you might be entering the weekend with your own preferences regarding which games to focus on, and which to place on the backburner. Most of you have your favorites and fantasy players to track. But in case you’re completely neutral or need help breaking ties with regard […]

Ten weeks into the 2014 NFL regular season, here’s how we view the 10 most valuable players in football at this very moment… 1. Tom Brady, Patriots — As good as Aaron Rodgers was against the Bears and Peyton Manning was against the Raiders, it doesn’t seem fair to take this away from Brady on a […]

The Browns are the toast of Cleveland right now currently sitting at 6-3 and in sole possession of first place in the AFC North. After last Thursday’s dismantling of the Cincinnati Bengals, Cleveland is a half game up on Cincy and a full game ahead of the Pittsburgh Steelers and Baltimore Ravens. They have a […]

This was the week Aaron Rodgers supplied a lot of embarrassment. Actually, that’s true most weeks. 6: The touchdowns thrown by Rodgers during the first half of Chicago Bears thumping. Rodgers became only the second quarterback in league history to throw six TDs in the first half of a game. 4.5: The average amount of […]

With six teams on bye, some of the top rookie performers, like Teddy Bridgewater, Anthony Barr and Bashaun Breeland weren’t in action this week. However, consistent rookie performers for the Cardinals (John Brown, Deone Bucannnon) and Browns (Terrence West, Joel Bitonio) lead the list of rising rookie classes. For the Browns, even without their first-round […]

Time to check in on some of the stupidest moments from around the NFL, this time from the 10th weekend of the 2014 season… The stupidest quarterback decision This goes to Oakland’s Derek Carr, who decided in a moment of panic against Denver to throw the ball to a guard. Not only is that a […]
