Deadspin raises the curtain on NFL Week 1

NFL RedZone Previews, Part 1: <i>Every</i> Touchdown? From <i>Every</i> Game? Really?
The NFL’s television schedule doesn’t tell you everything about who’s expected to be good in a given season. The Cowboys and Steelers will always get plenty of games in prime time, because no matter what, they’re going to draw eyeballs....

Pol's son says Trump hinted at 'a lot of money' in 2008 for Spygate probe to go away
The New England Patriots have as much of a scandalous underbelly as any NFL organization, in no small part due to the example that is set from the top down.

Because I’m a lunatic who thinks entirely too much about the NFL Draft, I’ve been wondering what the process would look like next week. Last year, Roger Goodell slouched in his beat up leather chair while wearing a cardigan, then read the names. The camera would cut to wherever those athletes were, ...

Jonnu Smith is a solid, Gronk-esque addition for the Patriots
The Patriots were lost in the dark in the first year of their post-Brady era. The Cam Newton experiment didn’t work, in part because of his battle with COVID, and the roster proved to have incredibly uninspiring weapons to work with. In atypical fashion, Bill Belichick has stormed into the free agen...

Jets fire Gregg Williams, who saved team’s future with worst play-call ever
The Jets lost in the Jetsiest way possible yesterday, and it falls squarely on the shoulders of defensive coordinator Gregg Williams. In an atrocious display of hubris and arrogance, Gregg Williams made arguably the dumbest defensive play-call in NFL history, and he was fired this morning for it....
