Put Frank Gore in the Hall of Fame
Over the weekend, the NFL’s third all-time leading rusher Frank Gore announced his retirement after 16 seasons. From just that sentence alone, you’d probably think Gore is a surefire Hall of Famer. It shouldn’t matter that Gore only averaged more than five yards per carry once in his career (2006). ...

When Stephen Ross’ Miami Dolphins fired Brian Flores on Monday, it sent shockwaves around the NFL.

NFL Week 9: Backup QBs take their shots at better-than-average .500 teams
No Aaron Rodgers for the Packers. Possibly no Kyler Murray for the Cardinals. But it’s alright. Their teams are both facing opponents with four losses. Oh… it’s the Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers....
Hear me out: Relax… Melvin Gordon should <em>still</em> be a thing in Denver’s offense
The Denver Broncos got embarrassed last night. The Broncos — who started the season 3-0, might I remind you — lost to the Browns’ practice squad offense. Yeah, I know Cleveland’s defense is solid, but come on. Case Keenum? D’Ernest Johnson? Those guys beat you?...

Five-Star USC Wideout Bru McCoy Got Screwed By Kliff Kingsbury
In an otherwise disappointing 2019 recruiting class for a USC football team coming off a 5-7 season, wide receiver Bru McCoy was the undisputed gem. A five-star ranked by some as one of the top 10 players in the country, the California native McCoy, together with fellow wideout Kyle Ford, was primed...
The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette’s Brian Batko did an oral history of Pitt’s 3-0 loss to Oregon State in the 2008 Sun Bowl—the “worst bowl game ever”—and it’s great fun.
