Pat Bowlen's Wife Annabel Has Now Entered The Broncos Ownership Dispute<em></em>

The pitched legal battle over control of the Denver Broncos continues to drag on. Bill Bowlen, brother of owner Alzheimer’s-stricken owner Pat, is carrying on with a lawsuit against the three-person trust tasked with overseeing the ownership transition, and the trust and one faction of the Bowlen fa...

Cameron Jordan Is Trolling Ben Roethlisberger Now

Saints defensive end Cameron Jordan, long a skilled troll, is gearing up to play the Steelers this week and probably sack Ben Roethlisberger a bunch. The Steelers have been ass on the road lately, and though their backs are against the wall, the Saints still have the No. 1 seed to play for, so they’...

Maryland Releases Videos From Offseason Workout Where Jordan McNair Died

The University of Maryland has released surveillance video and other footage from the football team’s offseason workout on May 29, 2018 that resulted in the death by heat stroke of football player Jordan McNair. The surveillance videos add little to the story, and the parts of the videos that contai...

That Might Be About It For Josh Gordon's NFL Career

Patriots WR Josh Gordon will reportedly be suspended, again, for a drug policy violation, again....

Frank Solich Still Has Some Tricks Up His Sleeve

We are thick in the middle of the most hilariously named bowl games, and while Wednesday’s Frisco Bowl can’t compete on that front with this, the day before, or this, the day after, perhaps we can take some solace in the fact that until last year the Frisco Bowl was the Miami Beach Bowl, meaning all...

Report: Prophecy Fulfilled As Raiders Sign Nathan Peterman

Reggie McKenzie is no longer there to prevent this from happening. The gods have foretold this. It is written....

Video Shows Skins' Montae Nicholson Flooring Man With Knockout Punch [Update]

Washington safety Montae Nicholson was arrested early Tuesday morning outside of World Of Beer in Ashburn, Va. and charged with assault and battery and being drunk in public. His girlfriend Sydney Maggiore was charged with malicious wounding and assault and battery, and both were taken to the Loudou...

Donald Trump Has To Give Up Autographed Tim Tebow Gear He Bought With Charity Money. Sad!

It’s entirely possible—and would have been merciful—if you briefly blacked out under the strain of constant Trump scandals unearthed during his presidential campaign, and missed this one. If so, it’s worth rectifying that: Few scandals so better display our president’s venality, his poor business ac...

Report: Oh God Yes, Jon Gruden Is "Very High" On Nathan Peterman

Former Bills quarterback Nathan Peterman is reportedly doing the rounds this week, hoping to catch on at the bottom end of some poor team’s depth chart and begin rebuilding his football career. He worked out with the Buccaneers on Tuesday, and his tour will reportedly soon take him out west, where a...

Bucs Consider The Strategy Of Throwing Even More Picks

Report: The Tessitore-Witten-McFarland Trio Will Be Back For The 2019 NFL Season

The Joe Tessitore-Jason Witten-Booger McFarland Monday Night Football crew has been very, hmm, uneven in its first season. Tessitore is blandly Fine; Witten sometimes talks himself into dizzying circles; McFarland’s sideline scooter seems to produce an awful lot of confusion in his analysis. If you ...

Maniac Football Coach Teams With Maniac Basketball Player To Deliver Watered-Down Gordon Gekko Speech To Impressionable Young Browns

This is just an unbelievably cursed combination of proper nouns: Browns head coach Gregg Williams used help from retired coin-operated fortune-teller Phil Jackson to arrange for dead-eyed thinkfluencer Kobe Bryant to deliver a motivational talk to his young team ahead of their week 15 game this past...

Man, Vance Joseph Really Messed That One Up

It’s been nearly 48 hours since Broncos head coach Vance Joseph made what might have been this season’s worst coaching decision (non–Nathan Peterman, Starting Quarterback Division). But now there’s math to let us know just how brutal Joseph’s play-call actually was....

Marcus Peters Goes Into The Stands To Shut Down Heckler [Update]

During the Rams’ loss to the Eagles last night, a heckler behind the Rams bench kept pestering cornerback Marcus Peters. Instead of chilling on the bench and ignoring him, Peters walked over and confronted the heckler, repeatedly asking him where he was from....

Jared Goff Is Really Struggling<em></em>

There is plenty to discuss about Jared Goff and the suddenly mortal Los Angeles Rams, but Goff’s panicked third-quarter interception was so inexplicable that it’d be a disservice to push it any further down this post, so:...

The Seahawks Crapped The Bed

What exactly are the Seahawks? Are they closer to the team that stumbled out to records of 0-2, 2-3, and 4-5? Or to the team that then reeled off four wins in a row and looked entirely ready to come into Santa Clara and claim a playoff berth on their lowly rivals’ home field? Or the team that prompt...

Hmm, The Patriots Are Supposed To Be Scary In December

There was no Jesse James horror play this time around for the Steelers. Although Tom Brady did make all of Pittsburgh nervous with a methodical and eerily familiar fourth-quarter drive, it was hindered by a holding penalty and ended with a turnover on downs. The Steelers maintain their slim lead in...

Josh Johnson Was Alive, Healthy In Washington's Win Over The Jaguars<em></em>

The most useful takeaway from Washington’s 16-13 win over Jacksonville wasn’t that the Jaguars are in a very dark place right now, but that a quarterback like Josh Johnson, seven years removed from his last start, can still be successful in the NFL despite an extended layoff from football. Huh!...

Sebastian Janikowski Knows His Limitations

Sebastian Janikowski exists to blast long field goals and basically do nothing else. He’s also 40 years old. Sure, it would’ve been nice if he tried to tackle 49ers kick returner Richie James Jr. on this 97-yard touchdown, but that’s asking a lot....

Bills Defenders Force Timeout After Helmet And Jersey Won't Stop Smooching<em></em>

Bills rookie linebacker Tremaine Edmunds assisted in a stop at the line of scrimmage to force a fourth down and punt from the Lions in the first half today. His teammate Jerry Hughes also tried to help, but instead had his helmet stuck to the back of Edmunds’s jersey. Aw, they like each other....
