Tyrod Taylor Might Be Calling The Bills' Bluff
As fucked as it already was, the Tyrod Taylor situation has gotten a whole hell of a lot messier....
He Was With Us, Leather
Broadcaster Chris Berman will not fully retire, but instead “assume a new role,” at ESPN, according to a statement from the Worldwide Leader. He will no longer be hosting NFL Sunday Countdown, and he won’t be heard at the NFL Draft and Home Run Derby....
Where Is Jim Irsay And What Is Going On With The Colts?
Colts head coach Chuck Pagano and GM Ryan Grigson have spent the last few seasons conspiring to waste Andrew Luck’s prime and turn their team into one of the saddest sacks in the sad-sack AFC South. It’s reasonable, then, that everyone was prepared to see some blood spilled after the season ended, b...
Brandon Marshall Compares The Jets' Season To Wearing A Dirty Diaper For A Year
The New York Jets negotiated all offseason with a quarterback who ended up with a total of 12 passing touchdowns and 23 turnovers; tried out two other quarterbacks who were both injured; and never touched the second-round QB they inexplicably drafted. The team finished this season at the bottom of ...
Things Are Bound To Get Uncomfortable When You Put Bobby Bowden On TV
It’s probably not a great idea to put any 87-year-old former college football coach on live television, but it’s an even worse idea when the old-timer in question happens to be Bobby Bowden....
D.A. Looking Into Whether Johnny Manziel's New Year's Partying Violated Deal To Dismiss His Domestic Violence Case
Last month, ex-Browns QB Johnny Manziel reached a deal with prosecutors to dismiss a domestic violence charge brought against him by his former girlfriend, Colleen Crowley. The terms of the agreement said he had to seek treatment for anger issues and counseling on substance abuse, as well as avoid c...
Murder Case Against Jimmy "Superfly" Snuka Dismissed
The murder case against former pro wrestler Jimmy “Superfly” Snuka has been dismissed, according to multiple reports. The decision ends what seemed less than two years ago like a chance to finally see a court trial in the bizarre 1983 death of Snuka’s then-girlfriend Nancy Argentino in Allentown, Pa...
Tom Brady Is A Marvel
Let’s leave the MVP discussion for Skippy and Goatface and All Takes Matter and that Sunday morning show featuring Mike Lupica that nobody watches anymore. The conversation worth having right now is the one about Tom Brady. Because Tom Brady is incredible....
Chip Kelly Is Playing The Game
The NFL is lousy with head coaches who have been given multiple chances at running a team despite achieving little on-field success. A coach can fail, get fired, and still find himself patrolling a sideline within a year, and the best way to go about pulling off such a feat is to control one’s own n...
Giants WRs Flew To Miami For One Hell Of A Party
The Giants’ game against Washington meant literally nothing (except to Washington, which needed a win to make the playoffs and lost, lol), and it appears the receiving corps must’ve been pretty anxious just to get the damn thing over with. Because as soon as it ended, WRs Odell Beckham Jr., Sterling...
Bills GM's Press Conference Really Couldn't Have Gone Much Worse
Bills GM Doug Whaley is facing the music today, giving an end-of-season press conference after a mess of a year and apparently failing to inspire much confidence that the Bills are internally healthy and ready for a turnaround....
How Will You Spend Your Saturday Instead Of Watching Raiders-Texans?
The nice thing about the NFL is that it doesn’t worry about hurting feelings with its TV scheduling. It’ll flex terrible teams out of primetime and not even hide the reason why. So for wild card weekend, when there’s almost always one obvious stinker, you merely need to ignore the early game on Satu...
Aqib Talib Explains Why He Snatched Michael Crabtree's Chain
Yesterday brought us one of the most incredible moments of the NFL season, when Broncos cornerback Aqib Talib ripped a gold chain from the neck of Raiders wide receiver Michael Crabtree....
Jed York Finally Ensures No Good Coach Will Work For Him Any Time Soon<em></em>
It’s hard to believe that, not that long ago, the San Francisco 49ers were a good team with a good head coach. It’s been a disaster since owner Jed York shuffled off Jim Harbaugh in December of 2014, and yesterday’s dual firing of head coach Chip Kelly and general manager Trent Baalke has put the fr...
Fight Leaves Wayne Simmonds Shirtless
Kevin Bieksa and Wayne Simmonds dropped the gloves just 95 seconds into last night’s 4-3 Ducks shootout win over the Flyers, and Bieksa immediately yanked his opponent’s jersey over his head, to the delight of the crowd and to grins from Simmonds and the officials....
That Was Peak Aaron Rodgers
A good thing to do is to listen to Aaron Rodgers....
Report: Chip Kelly Has Been Fired
Adam Schefter reports the 49ers have dumped Chip Kelly after giving the former Eagles and Oregon head coach less than a year on the job. San Francisco went 2-14 this season, showing little competence along the way. The dismissal comes hours after the team fired GM Trent Baalke, and throws an already...
