Aaron Rodgers Threw One Of The Prettiest Passes You'll See All Season
Aaron Rodgers is negating with the Eagles’ fearsome pass rush tonight by getting the football out very quickly and not allowing them the time that they would normally be using to put the Packers QB on his ass.

Rams Legend Eric Dickerson Says Team Banned Him From Sidelines Over Criticism
Eric Dickerson is one of the most iconic players in Los Angeles Rams franchise history.

Dickerson advocated for the Rams to move back to Calif...

What If Jeff Fisher Is Just An Expert Troll?
The thought of Jeff Fisher evokes the phrase “experienced mediocrity.” He shuffles along with the Rams, underachieving here and there, while carrying a lengthy, but not necessarily good, résumé as a shield to protect his job. Based on what Fisher did Sunday, though, I’m starting to wonder whether he...

The reactions run the gamut, from No. 76's Laurent Duvernay-Tardif’s two-fingered exultation, to Santos’s uncertainty, to ...

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Terrelle Pryor felt a little miffed after he saw (some of) New York Giants cornerback Janoris Jenkins’s comments on him this week, which added a little animosity to today’s game.

Derek Anderson Flagged On The Bench For "Disrespectfully Addressing An Official"
Carolina Panthers backup QB Derek Anderson was upset that his team didn’t get a pass interference call late in the second quarter—upset enough to yell at an official from the sidelines.

The Saints Punked Gregg Williams
Defensive coordinator Gregg Williams and New Orleans Saints head coach Sean Payton have a history. In January of 2012, Williams left the team for a job with the St. Louis Rams, received an NFL suspension a couple of months later for his role in the Saints’ Bountygate, missed the 2012 season, and nev...
