Jeff Fisher Is Ready To Face Patriots Running Backs "Brandon" And "Danny"
Okay, Jeff Fisher has to be messing with everyone. How could a man work in the league for this long if he were actually this dumb and uninformed? NFL coaches are stupid in many ways, but they’re at least obsessive about their jobs. Today, the Rams head coach appeared to be using years-old intel to p...
NFL Suspends Bills' Seantrel Henderson, Who Has Used Weed To Treat Crohn's Disease, 10 Games
The NFL has suspended Buffalo Bills offensive lineman Seantrel Henderson 10 games for violating the league’s substance-abuse policy. Henderson, who found out that he had Crohn’s disease in the middle of last season and has played in one preseason game and one regular-season game since, was also susp...
The Story Behind The Perfect Photo Of Sports' First Streaker
When freelance photojournalist Ian Bradshaw went to Twickenham Stadium in the spring of 1974 to cover a rugby union friendly between England and France, he expected to shoot nothing more than another bloodbath between two fierce rivals. He returned instead with an instantly iconic photograph that si...
Eric Dickerson To Resume Attending Rams Games Next Season
Jeff Fisher—coach of the 4-7 Rams, losers of six of seven and owners of the least productive offense in football—is currently embroiled in a feud with Eric Dickerson, who starred for the Rams the last time they were (good) in Los Angeles. The beef stems from Fisher reportedly banning Dickerson from ...
The Giants' Defense Has Made A Historic Turnaround
OK, so they just beat the Browns, and everyone has beaten the Browns. OK, their offense and their special teams remain frustratingly inconsistent. And, OK, this is probably not a defense that’s going to make anyone forget what they did in Super Bowls 42 and 46. But the Giants have won six in a row a...
What The Hell Was Aaron Rodgers Doing In This Weird Tent?
The most noteworthy moment from tonight’s Packers-Eagles game was Aaron Rodgers disappearing into a MYSTERY TENT for a bit in the third quarter for some reason. It was initially unclear what the tent was or why Rodgers entered it, and Lisa Salters wasn’t sure what Rodgers was doing....
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. Green Bay moved the ball efficiently throughout the first half and they converted their fi...
Bill Belichick Apparently Cost Tim Tebow A Lucrative Endorsement Right Before Cutting Him
Before he turned into a full-on salesperson with a struggling baseball career, Tim Tebow was briefly a New England Patriot. He was on the team for most of the summer of 2013, but he got cut before the season started. Tebow, fresh off a middling spell in the Arizona Fall League, is now promoting his ...
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. He set the single-season record for rushing yards (which still stands) in 1984 and led the NFL in rushing three times in his four full seasons with the team. Dickerson advocated for the Rams to move back to Calif...
Josh Norman Clarifies Comments About Dez Bryant, Is A Weenie<em></em>
The spiciest moment from this year’s serving of Thanksgiving NFL games was the eruption of a full-blown beef between Josh Norman and Dez Bryant. The two spent most of the game yipping at each other before getting into an altogether muted scuffle immediately after the game ended. ...
Messy Niners-Dolphins Stadium Brawl Punctuated By Miami Fan Complaining About Play-Calling
What prompted this fight in the stands at Sunday’s 49ers-Dolphins game is unclear—the uploader’s description shares his account of the events—but there’s a lot going on....
Liberty Hires Ex-Baylor Athletic Director Ian McCaw
Liberty University announced Monday that Baylor’s former athletic director Ian McCaw has been hired as the school’s new AD. McCaw will assume the spot left open by Jeff Barber’s Nov. 17 resignation. McCaw is the first of the major three ex-Baylor officials publicly disgraced for their role in the sc...
It's Time For Your Packers-Eagles <i>Monday Night Football</i> Simulation
Are you excited for tonight’s Packers-Eagles Monday Night Football game? Relive it before it happens in our Tecmo Super Bowl simulation, LIVE:...
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...
Government Officials Are Living It Up For Free At Publicly Funded Vikings Stadium
The five-person Minnesota Sports Facilities Authority was created to control and operate the Vikings’ new stadium on behalf of taxpayers, who coughed up half a billion dollars to build it. But it turns out that the MSFA members, along with other public officials, are being well taken care of by the ...
The March To 0-16: Hue Jackson Is Sad
It is incredibly difficult to go winless in the NFL, and yet, I think the Browns have it in them....
Florida Panthers Fire Coach Gerard Gallant, Make Him Catch A Taxi
Twenty-two games into a disappointing season, the Florida Panthers fired head coach Gerard Gallant last night, and while the decision is questionable enough, the way it went down is awkward as hell. For one, the team didn’t officially announce the move until about an hour ago, leaving it to media to...
Half The Chiefs Had No Idea They Won
I very much enjoy this photo, taken just as Cairo Santos banked in the 34-yard, game-winning field goal off the left upright, because no one’s really sure if it was good or not. The reactions run the gamut, from No. 76's Laurent Duvernay-Tardif’s two-fingered exultation, to Santos’s uncertainty, to ...
KC Wins In Overtime On Bank-Shot Field Goal As Time Expires
A Kansas City-Denver game that looked to be another primetime stinker proved a thriller in the end as the Chiefs won on Cairo Santos’s field goal that ricocheted off one upright and in as overtime expired....
Grey Cup Kneel-Down Gets Very Profane
Calgary executed an incredible comeback to force overtime with Ottawa in the Grey Cup, and as the Redblacks took a knee to end regulation, things got very f-bomby on the line of scrimmage. (Let’s get this camera angle on NFL broadcasts, eh?)...
