Three weeks after former Baylor football coach Art Briles wrote the public a mewling letter promising that he’s really a stand-up guy, he’s continuing on his quest to repair his image and lock down a new coaching job. Briles was a guest speaker at yesterday’s Birmingham Football Coaching Clinic, say...
Adrian Peterson Is In Exile
Two weeks ago, when the Minnesota Vikings signed free agent back Latavius Murray, general manager and honorary third Bayless brother Rick Spielman said publicly that the signing meant that Adrian Peterson will not be back with the team next season.

Jim Harbaugh And Chip Kelly Go To Bat For Colin Kaepernick
NFL free agency began three weeks ago, and Colin Kaepernick is still a man without a team, even in a league in which Mike Glennon just got $19 million guaranteed to actually start for someone.

"Megatron's Butthole" Is Stopped Up
The Atlanta Falcons will ostensibly begin play this fall in their new stadium (with its eight-petal retractable roof, which Drew referred to as “Megatron’s Butthole” and now I cannot think of it any other way).

The Billion-Dollar NFL Concussion Settlement Is A New Kind Of Disaster
The six-year long, billion-dollar NFL concussion class-action lawsuit is finally drawing near a close, but the infighting and confusion that has dogged the suit since its beginning continues as fierce as ever. And it’s seriously threatening the likelihood that players will collect anywhere near the ...

Where Will The Raiders Play The Next Three Years?
The Raiders are off to Las Vegas, but—not just yet. Construction has not yet begun on their fancy new stadium, financed with $750 million in taxpayer money, and it won’t be ready for action until 2020. That leaves three seasons, and for at least one of them—probably more—they’ll have to find somewh...
Roger Goodell Is Finally Going Back To Foxborough

Why The Vote To Move The Raiders To Las Vegas Wasn't Unanimous
NFL owners like to project solidarity, even if it doesn’t exist. It’s better for their product and their PR if they present a united front in matters of league import, rather than a group of factious, occasionally squabbling mega-wealthy looking out for themselves and trying to out-earn each other i...
Yes, Yes, No, No, No, Yes, No, No, Yes, No, Yes, No, No, No, No, Yes, No, Yes, No, Yes, No, Yes, Yes, No, No, No, Yes, No, No, No
The NFL head coaches met in Phoenix for their annual meeting, and as usual, posed for a group photo. Gone is Jeff Fisher and his leisure suit, but Andy Reid’s vacation vibes remain. Ben McAdoo’s hair is exactly as you saw it last....
