The Bills knocked the Dolphins off cloud 9 with a serious butt kicking
Entering Week 4, the Miami Dolphins were the talk of the league, riding high after hitting the Denver Broncos with 70 points and beating them by 50 at home. But we know how quickly circumstances can change in the NFL. One week later, the Dolphins stomped into Buffalo feeling good and got smoked befo...
If only the Bears could ‘healthy scratch’ the entire organization
There was a moment, back in 2021, that should have given the Bears a long pause before trading for Chase Claypool, if not put them off him entirely. But then, as we’ve established, the Bears are incapable of making good decisions....
Sean Payton may soon come to regret taking the Broncos job (if he doesn't already)
Nearly a quarter of the NFL season is in the books, and you can’t help but wonder about some of the people and decisions that have dominated the headlines to this point. One major storyline entering the season was Sean Payton taking over and potentially turning Denver around. Thus far, the team has ...

Hey, you! Yeah, you! Time for a pop quiz! There’s only one question, but it’s a bit tricky, so take your time and make sure you’ve really thought it through before continuing on....
Oregon State coach Jonathan Smith cupping his breasts is oddly soothing
The Oregon State Beavers and coach Jonathan Smith were shunned by their Pac-12 brethren before the season as every school but Washington State abandoned them for greener conferences, and now everyone (but Wazzu) is subject to the ire of Corvallis. On Friday night, DJ Uiagalelei and the No. 19 Beaver...
COVID may have given us a better way to develop quarterbacks
One of the unintended side effects of the pandemic as it relates to college football is the extra year of eligibility for players, especially quarterbacks. There are a number of transfer portal QB1s making a name for themselves, and a case for an NFL team, with an added year of experience. Notre Dam...
Cameron Ward is the stealthiest quarterback in the country
Cam Ward should be studied by science. Right now researchers are perfecting the usage of metamaterials to manipulate the path of light through material to create in essence, the illusion of invisibility. It’s the technology you don’t see coming. Likewise, Washington State quarterback Cam Ward’s care...
It’s early, but Tua Tagovailoa is playing like an MVP
The Miami Dolphins are clearly operating on another level offensively than most of the NFL. Scoring 70 points against Denver last week minus their second most dynamic player, Jaylen Waddle, is indicative of that. Tua Tagovailoa and the crew look like world beaters as the only remaining undefeated AF...
Using 'Nazi' as a play call is inexplicable and has no place in sports
The shocking part wasn’t hearing that an Ohio high school football coach used the word “Nazi” to describe a play call over the weekend. It wasn’t shocking it took an opposing team from a community that according to the latest survey from the Jewish Federation of Cleveland, published in 2011, was aro...
In defense of the Tush Push: Stop hating on the Eagles for a well-executed idea
Hating is not a good color on anyone. As long as people don’t use unscrupulous methods to achieve success, they should be patted on the back for it. The Philadelphia Eagles have perfected their version of the quarterback sneak, the tush push. They run it well. They run it often and it also does not ...
Ads for the NFL are showing up on white nationalist Twitter accounts
The NFL likes to think of itself as apolitical, but as most fans know, that’s only sort of true. Check out which political campaigns NFL owners donate to or the military-industrial complex fever dream that still kicks off multiple games every Sunday. ...
Jordan Love has the Pack eyeing their rightful spot atop the NFC North
If multiple NFL franchises hadn’t combusted three weeks into the NFL season, more people would be talking about the Green Bay Packers, who appear to have another franchise quarterback. Jordan Love’s numbers aren’t eye-popping, yet he has a 7-1 touchdown to interception ratio and already plays with t...
There's a Zeke attack planned in Dallas this weekend
In the revenge game of Week 4, Ezekiel Elliott visits Dallas for the first time as a visitor with New England....
Crucifying Zach Wilson isn’t going to resurrect Aaron Rodgers
New York Jets fans can be mad at a lot of things — ownership, whatever made them a Jets fan, the New England Patriots, Robert Saleh, the sky, the dirt, the turf — but not Zach Wilson. Yes, he’s an atrocious quarterback right now, and will probably be as long as he’s in New York. He’s not a starting ...
Travis Kelce breaks down his Taylor Swift-centric Sunday. Was it enchanting to meet her?
Travis Kelce brought this on himself and he knows that. That was his insistence, at least, on the podcast he hosts with his brother. On this week’s episode of New Heights, Jason Kelce and the most-talked-about bachelor in America dove deep into how the Kansas City Chiefs tight end went from a Hall o...
Colin Kaepernick’s letter to the New York Jets is the norm for successful Black Americans
Colin Kaepernick did two very important things by allowing rapper J. Cole to publicize the letter he wrote to the New York Jets in pursuit of being signed as a practice squad quarterback.
