New Browns Head Coach Rob Chudzinski May Have The Clevelandest Surname In The NFL
As strange as it was to see the Browns fire Pat Shurmur after a 5-11 season—after all, isn't that merely upholding The Browns Way?—it seemed even more peculiar for them to hire in his place a 44-year-old without a lick of NFL head-coaching experience....

ESPN's Lomas Brown Says He Didn't Send All Those Insulting Tweets Sent By Lomas Brown

Eliminating Kickoffs Would Ruin Football, According To A Kicker And A Kick Return Specialist
Yesterday, we discussed the possibility that the NFL will do away with kickoffs and instead institute a punt-or-4th-and-long option.
