Nathaniel Hackett is who we thought he was, and the last time head coach Sean Payton won a ring the sports world was still a month away from being introduced to Brad Stevens and the Butler Bulldogs. Putting the Denver Broncos’ mistakes all on Russell Wilson’s shoulders is a cowardly move....
Why is it the Jets are only ever relevant in the offseason?
Oh, Jets. Jets, Jets, Jets. Can’t you do anything right? Current Chief and former Gang Green WR Mecole Hardman was accused by various former New York teammates of leaking offensive game plans to opponents, including Kansas City and Philadelphia. That’s a juicy rumor even if it’s not true, and my gu...

The Texans are proof that serendipity is the NFL’s most valuable asset
Think about the Houston Texans’ path to this moment. After gutting out a win over the Indianapolis Colts, 23-19, on Saturday, DeMeco Ryans and CJ Stroud locked up a playoff spot in their rookie campaigns.

The NFL and NCAA football have a coaching-carousel problem
Raise your hand if you weren’t surprised that a Matt Patricia-coordinated defense caved during the waning minute of the Eagles-Seahawks game Monday. Now, keep them raised if you’re not shocked that Matt Nagy and Nathaniel Hackett are struggling to get their respective offenses in rhythm. Alright, to...
Zach Wilson keeps thriving when expectations are low
Intermittently, Zach Wilson is capable of balling out.

On Sunday, New York turned back to Wilson after benching him for the third...

Proximity to Aaron Rodgers once again working in Nathaniel Hackett’s favor
The great thing about fall guys in the NFL is they’re interchangeable. It could be a quarterback, a coordinator, a distraction, the head coach, the owner, or Roger Goodell, and usually there’s enough vitriol to spread around. Take the New York Jets for example. They’re one of the most scrutinized fr...

A lot of NFL teams tanking for Caleb Williams already have a QB
If you’ve found yourself noticing more bad football than usual in the NFL, you’re not wrong.

Sean Payton may soon come to regret taking the Broncos job (if he doesn't already)

Crucifying Zach Wilson isn’t going to resurrect Aaron Rodgers
New York Jets fans can be mad at a lot of things — ownership, whatever made them a Jets fan, the New England Patriots, Robert Saleh, the sky, the dirt, the turf — but not Zach Wilson.

Aaron Rodgers is responsible for both the New York Jets' and Denver Broncos' misery
This morning, the New York Jets and Denver Broncos are searching for someone to blame for their current predicaments: Sean Payton, Russell Wilson, Broncos defensive coordinator Vance Joseph, Nathaniel Hackett, or Zach Wilson?
