College football coaches’ least favorite time of the year is upon us — transfer time!
It’s back! The transfer portal is here to pilfer players and give head coaches everywhere migraines. Quarterbacks are looking for upgrades or second and third chances. DJ Uiagalelei and Cam Ward furthered Oregon State and Washington State’s misery as neither QB opted to explore the unknown of life w...

Matt Rhule waxes moronically during Nebraska’s year-end news conference
Matt Rhule will not go quietly into the offseason. The Nebraska coach opted to make news, again, by saying some dumb stuff off the field.

We’re witnessing the vindication of Steve Wilks

Firing Frank Reich isn't going to fix the Carolina Panthers
In 1995, the Carolina Panthers had the best season of any expansion franchise in the history of the NFL.

The Carolina Panthers have a Dave Tepper problem
In May of 2018, at the Whitley Hotel in Atlanta — known then as the Ritz-Carlton (Buckhead) — Dave Tepper played one of the greatest games of “Big Bank Take Little Bank” of all time. He bought the Carolina Panthers for a then-record $2.275 billion…in CASH....

Note to the next Bills' offensive coordinator: Don’t ask Josh Allen to do everything
The Buffalo Bills’ championship window feels like it’s closing for no other reason than Josh Allen’s regression.

The Miami Dolphins and San Francisco 49ers can afford to gamble
A couple of early season behemoths in the NFL rolled the dice with house money Friday as the San Francisco 49ers’ defense got scarier with the addition of edge rusher Randy Gregory, and the Miami Dolphins’ offense folded Chase Claypool into a ridiculously talented group of skill players. The two tra...

The Giants got what they deserved trying to steal from the Eagles
There were several low points during the New York Giants loss to the Seattle Seahawks on Monday night — the offensive line, the missed tackles, everything Daniel Jones did — but the most egregious play was the failed “Tush push.” It’s one thing to copycat another coaching staff; this is the NFL afte...

Baker Mayfield is doing his best Tom Brady (at 45) impression
A season ago, the Philadelphia Eagles eased into the playoffs, and the No. 1 seed, behind Jalen Hurts, a great defense, and a favorable schedule. Their out-of-division matchups were the NFC North, and the AFC South; a combo almost guaranteed to net solid returns for really any organization. I say th...

Who snitched on Coach Prime?
There’s some foul play afoot in the coaching world if Keyshawn Johnson is to be believed. Over the weekend, Oregon beat Colorado thoroughly. It was like a high schooler walloping on a fifth grader, and on Monday, The Undisputed talking head said Ducks coach Dan Lanning had outside help from coaches ...
