Seattle Seahawks can’t continue to neglect offensive line

0 comments by on 3/23/2016

The Seattle Seahawks didn’t have a very good offensive line in the first place. In fact, it was arguably a liability before they traded their best lineman, center Max Unger, last offseason. Then, after the line struggled in 2015, they let their most accomplished lineman, Russell Okung, walk in free agency, along with starting right […]

Breaking down the trade market for Muhammad Wilkerson

0 comments by on 3/22/2016

Muhammad Wilkerson’s situation is quite complex. He’s a 26-year-old coming off a 12-sack, Pro Bowl season, but he broke his leg in the final game of that campaign. He just broke free of a rookie contract that paid him only $13.9 million over the first five years of his career, and he missed just three […]

NFL would be silly to block a team from moving to Las Vegas

0 comments by

The Oakland Raiders have spent much of the offseason flirting with the city of Las Vegas in regard to a potential stadium there. It may just be posturing in an attempt to secure capital for a stadium in the Bay Area, but it is interesting nonetheless. Mainly because the NFL’s owners continue to express rather […]

Kansas City Chiefs can survive without Justin Houston

0 comments by

The Kansas City Chiefs might have to spend the majority — if not all — of the 2016 season without top pass rusher Justin Houston. That only came to light when it was revealed on Tuesday that the 27-year-old four-time Pro Bowler underwent ACL surgery in February, but Chiefs fans shouldn’t panic because it appears […]

Is Ryan Fitzpatrick being overlooked by free agency?

0 comments by

2015 seemed to be the year that always dependable quarterback option Ryan Fitzpatrick finally earned the respect and success that he had deserved after years of being capable on mostly mediocre teams. Fitzpatrick going from plying his trade on struggling Bills, Titans, and Texans teams to finding his first taste of success with the New […]

The NFL is finally about to make a big international push

0 comments by on 3/21/2016

The NFL is reportedly looking to play games in Germany and China in 2017 and 2018 and is returning to Mexico City in 2016. There’s also been talk of games in Brazil, and England has become a fixture. The England experiment has been a success, so why not? American football was at one point as […]

Can the New York Jets remain a contender with Geno Smith at quarterback?

0 comments by

It appears the New York Jets are continuing to low-ball veteran quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick, which could indicate that general manager Mike Maccagnan and the rest of the Gang Green regime are confident that Fitzpatrick either won’t get a blockbuster deal elsewhere (a decent bet considering free agency is two weeks old and Fitzpatrick is 33) or […]

Can Robert Griffin III get back on track with the Cleveland Browns?

0 comments by

Per head coach Hue Jackson, the Cleveland Browns had “a great meeting” Friday and Saturday with free-agent quarterback Robert Griffin III, which might mean that Griffin is now the leading candidate to take the reins for Cleveland in 2016. The two might sort of be perfect for each other. The Browns have of course swung […]

Top 10 Pass Rushers in the 2016 NFL Draft

0 comments by on 3/17/2016

If you saw what Von Miller and company did to Cam Newton and his offense in the Super Bowl, you know how critical having a pass rush is. In fact, 9 of the top 10 teams in sacks in 2015 made the postseason. It’s a simple formula: pressure the quarterback successfully and you win games. […]

Will Chris Long be the next successful Patriots reclamation project?

0 comments by

It has been a rough couple of years for pass rusher Chris Long as the son of Raiders great Howie Long hasn’t had much success or injury luck, the combination of injuries and the poor production that followed leading to Long being released by the Rams entering free agency. A release that was deserved, but […]

The Baltimore Ravens are really old

0 comments by

While the majority of the unrestricted free agents who have signed major contracts one week into the new league year are guys who have been in the league just four, five, maybe six years, the Baltimore Ravens have utilized a very different approach. Thus far, the Ravens have signed three outside free agent: 31-year-old Eric […]

Neglected Ryan Fitzpatrick and Brian Hoyer show how much final impressions matter

0 comments by

It’s a quarterback frenzy! One week into the new league year, quarterbacks with question marks named Sam Bradford, Kirk Cousins and Brock Osweiler have been handed contracts/tenders that will pay them a combined total of $56 million a year. And yet Ryan Fitzpatrick and Brian Hoyer can’t get any love, despite the fact both veteran […]

Chandler Jones could put Arizona Cardinals over the top

0 comments by on 3/15/2016

If the 13-3 Arizona Cardinals had a single Achilles’ heel in 2015, it was a pass-rush that ranked 20th with 36 sacks (despite amassing nine in one game), 19th with a sack rate of 5.9 and 27th at Football Outsiders. As we saw in Super Bowl 50, getting to the passer consistently is as crucial as […]
