Should You Root For The Dolphins To Be The Worst Team Ever?
After two games, the Miami Dolphins are, well, you know. Everyone knows. After two weeks, everybody knows. Everybody can smell it....

Antonio Brown And The Conversation Nobody Wants To Have
I watched the NFL on CBS this Sunday because I knew they had no choice but to talk about Antonio Brown. Brown was sued earlier this week by a former trainer, Britney Taylor, who said that Brown sexually assaulted and raped her when she worked for him. The day before, Brown had been signed by the New...

Ben Roethlisberger Is Done For The Season
Ben Roethlisberger was knocked out of the second half of his team’s loss to the Seahawks Sunday after he injured his throwing arm on a pass in the second quarter. Big Ben grimaced from the bench through the second half as Mason Rudolph threw a pair of touchdowns and nearly marshaled a late comeback...

Artist Says Antonio Brown Exposed His Barely Covered Penis To Her While She Worked In His House
Sports Illustrated’s Robert Klemko has published a long story about Antonio Brown and his various business and personal relationships. Through interviews and the examination of court documents and police reports, Klemko outlines a pattern of behavior that is defined by accusations of refusing to pay...

Patrick Mahomes Only Needed 15 Minutes To Melt The Raiders
Jon Gruden’s merry band of football louts began their game against the flamethrowing Kansas City Chiefs yesterday afternoon by surprising everyone and scoring on their first two drives. Derek Carr’s accuracy (as well as a 43-yard pass interference call against Tyrann Mathieu) helped the Raiders to ...

Report: Drew Brees To Undergo Thumb Surgery, Expected To Be Out For Six Weeks
After Drew Brees injured his hand in the Saints’ game against the Rams on Sunday, Adam Schefter is reporting that the quarterback will need surgery on his thumb, which is expected to keep him off the field for six weeks....

The Giants Are Inching Closer And Closer To The Daniel Jones Era
For the second straight week, Eli Manning was outplayed by the quarterback opposite him, and this time, it felt a whole lot worse. While there’s not much shame in losing in Dallas to Dak Prescott when he throws for over 400 yards and puts up a perfect 158.3 QB rating, Week 2 brought fewer chances fo...

We Might Have Seen Adam Vinatieri's Last Kick
If Adam Vinatieri were a normal kicker, the Colts would just cut him today. Vinatieiri has had a nightmare start to his season, missing a pair of extra points in Indianapolis’s 19-17 win over the Titans, a week after missing two FGs and an XP in a six-point loss to the Chargers. That’s nine points l...

Soft Roughing The Passer Call Helps Deprive World Of Elite Joe Flacco Moment
On the Broncos’ final drive of the game, Joe Flacco finally looked like the elite quarterback that John Elway thought he was when the Denver GM signed the ex-Raven this offseason. After leading his team 50 yards down the field, Flacco faced a 4th-and-3 on the Bears’ 12-yard line. The quarterback the...

Fuck That, Give Cooper Kupp This Touchdown
Cooper Kupp became God—or Marshawn Lynch, take your pick—for 66 yards against the Saints on Sunday when he turned a slew of failed strip attempts and bad tackles into one of the most impressive near-touchdown runs you’ll see this year....

If You Can Believe It, The Saints Got Horribly Screwed By Another Bad Call
Jared Goff fumbled, and Saints defensive end Cam Jordan picked it up. He was on his way to an 87-yard touchdown when the referees blew the play dead. Crew chief Walt Anderson ruled that Goff’s arm was going forward. Incomplete pass....

The Dolphins Are Stale Piss From The Gutter
The Dolphins, a team set up to execute one of the most brazen tanking campaigns in NFL history, were so bad in Week 1 that a handful of players were reportedly calling their agents after the game and begging to be traded. Somehow, Miami was even worse today against the Patriots....

The Cardinals Couldn't Keep Lamar Jackson Down For Long
First, the good: Lamar Jackson spent the first two quarters of today’s game against the Cardinals looking poised to pick up where he left off in Miami. The first Ravens drive of the game was a seven-play, 96-yard drive that ended with an easy touchdown throw to tight end Mark Andrews....

Drew Brees Exits Saints-Rams With Hand Injury [Updates]
Drew Brees was taken out of Sunday’s Saints-Rams game after the quarterback suffered a hand injury on a throw where Aaron Donald was barreling down at him. Brees was able to get the throw off, but his hand collided with Donald’s outstretched arm....

Only Doug Marrone Could Stunt The Growing Legend Of Gardner Minshew
Today’s game between the Texans and Jaguars was not entertaining, and Jaguars starting quarterback and character from a country song Gardner Minshew wasn’t all that great for most of the game. But in the final two minutes, with his team trailing 13-6, Minshew decided to put the fellas on his back an...

Donte Moncrief's Steelers Career Could Not Be Going Any Worse
After the Steelers’ Week 1 destruction at the hands of the Patriots, Pittsburgh wide receiver Donte Moncrief told reporters that he had played his “worst game ever.” That wasn’t a hyperbolic description, either. Moncrief finished that game with three catches on 10 targets for seven yards, and he was...

Casey Hayward Thrown To Ground By Kenny Golladay, Makes Interception Anyway
Lions receiver Kenny Golladay has shown in the past that he has the skillset to be a solid hard-hitting safety, so perhaps that’s why Matthew Stafford felt comfortable throwing his target a pass so close to Chargers corner Casey Hayward. Golladay’s defense was technically worse this time around, bu...

This Flop Saved A Touchdown
The block, by Pittsburgh safety Sean Davis, was unnecessary. Steelers linebacker Mark Barron was going to return a fumble for a touchdown without his help. But Davis hit Tyler Lockett in the back, and it was a penalty for illegal block in the back....

Doug Marrone And Jalen Ramsey Are Already Screaming At Each Other On The Sideline
Jacksonville hasn’t exactly started out on the best foot this season, what with their starting quarterback breaking his clavicle and allowing Sammy Watkins score three touchdowns last Sunday, but it’s still early enough in the year where things like that shouldn’t be wearing people down. Yet, less t...

Titans' Home Debut Features On-Field Fireball
The Tennessee Titans just kicked off their first home game of the season, and attempted to wow the home fans with a pregame pyrotechnic display. It didn’t go very well!...
