Has Brock Osweiler earned the starting job for the 2016 Denver Broncos?

The Denver Broncos won Super Bowl 50, and yet seven teams have better Vegas odds for Super Bowl 51. Why? It might have something to do with the uncertainty that surrounds the Broncos at the quarterback position, but that’s odd considering that both Peyton Manning and Brock Osweiler probably did as much harm as good […]

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

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 […]

Newton-Wilson could become the next era’s Brady-Manning

The rivalry between Tom Brady and Peyton Manning has been one of the best of the 21st century, but those dudes are old. One might be retiring, the other — despite his insistence that he’ll play until he’s 83 — likely isn’t far off. Brady vs. Manning is over, but we might not have to […]

Images that will forever define Super Bowl 50

Super Bowl 50 didn’t have a lot of signature offensive plays. Instead, it was about some terrible turnovers and interesting reactions. Here are X images that defined the game. Image 1: The loose ball which Cam Newton inexplicably failed to attempt to jump on… I’ve watched this play a thousand times already, which indicates it […]

Ranking the top 50 NFL players slated to become free agents

Don’t get too excited when you look at this list. Between the ability of teams to re-sign their key players before March 9th and/or designate them with a franchise tag, many of these players will never hit the open market. That, and you’ll see a number of good veteran players released and available between now […]

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

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 […]

Nine years later, it’s wild to look at where top 2007 draft picks have gone

When you reflect on where the top 14 picks have wound up, it might be safe to say that there’s never been an NFL draft like the 2007 NFL draft. It feels like just yesterday the Oakland Raiders took JaMarcus Russell first overall. And while so much has happened in the last nine years, it’s […]

This is why Marshawn Lynch should be a Hall of Famer

If indeed Marshawn Lynch is done playing, he’s retiring at a bad time. Not only are running backs less valued now than ever before, but Lynch might be forced to become Hall of Fame-eligible at the same time as Peyton Manning and Calvin Johnson. So the former Buffalo Bills and Seattle Seahawks running back won’t […]

Panthers had no chance against Broncos’ juggernaut defense in SB 50

For two weeks it didn’t feel like the Denver Broncos were given a chance to win Super Bowl 50. They were overmatched in nearly every area, we were told. They couldn’t muster enough offense to keep pace with Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton and the dynamic attack he leads, we were told. And they were […]

Watch: Kony Ealy intercepts Peyton Manning
