Jim Irsay Moves Goalposts On "G.O.A.T." Debate In A Way That Conveniently Discounts The Patriots' Accomplishments
Despite the recent success of a New England-based franchise, there are plenty of people who will still argue over which NFL team is the greatest of all time.

The Houston Texans Are Pure Frauds, No Matter Who's Playing Quarterback
Two interminable streaks were on the line today in Houston: the Texans’ unbroken history of playoff humiliations, and Deshaun Watson not having lost a game by more than one score since high school.

Please Stop Using Baseball To Describe Football

Jalen Ramsey To Andrew Luck: Sike!<em></em>

Report: Mike Pence's Gutless Political Stunt At A Colts Game Last Year Was Expensive
