Hey New York, slow your roll on the Jets to the Super Bowl
So, this is where we’re at now. Hot takes for the sake of hot takes. Any time you pick the New York Jets to do anything other than perform like the Jets, that’s a hot take. All of a sudden, because they’ve acquired an over-the-hill, entitled, cave-dwelling quarterback in Aaron Rodgers, we’re suppose...

Five players the Dallas Cowboys could select at No. 26 in the 2023 draft
Every Dallas Cowboys draft is an adventure, just trying to figure out which direction Jerry Jones will go with the team’s first-round pick.

What do the Jets do if they don't land Aaron Rodgers?

The mind-bending nature of the Aaron Rodgers trade makes me want to do a darkness retreat
Friday will mark one month since Aaron Rodgers emerged from his darkness retreat and told the world he wanted a different employer.

OBJ’s addition to the Ravens does nothing to shield Baltimore from Lamar Jackson’s plea
For months, it’s been the elephant in the room for the Ravens.

What if Aaron Rodgers to New York is just a big April Fools' joke?
Aaron Rodgers is still the quarterback for the Green Bay Packers.

Dallas snags a wide receiver, but not the one fans expected
The Dallas Cowboys got their man. Not the player many fans might be thinking of, but they targeted a wide receiver and got him.

The Miami Dolphins are keeping the gas pedal on the floor
One is an accident, two is a trend. That is how the old saying goes. During the 2022 offseason, the Buffalo Bills made a big push in an effort to win the franchise’s first Super Bowl championship.

NFLPA's team report cards a bit of an eye-opener
With the release of the NFL Players Association’s first-ever Club Report Cards, players have more power than ever before. Of course, not everything that came from these reports was shocking.

The New York Jets made history — and not the wrong kind for once
The NFL announced its end-of-the-season awards Thursday night, and the list of recipients was largely predictable.

The Eagles are flying high, but not everyone enjoys Nick Sirianni's antics
Nick Siranni has come a long way from his cringeworthy, double-talk-filled, introductory press conference in 2021. As the Philadelphia Eagles head coach, he has led the team to consecutive playoff appearances. This season they had the best record in the NFC and are playing in the Super Bowl. An acco...

Wonder why Jerry Jones canceled his Tuesday morning radio interview?
If there’s one thing we know about Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones, it’s his love of the spotlight. The when, where, or why never matters.
