Alshon Jeffery Is Frustrated And John Fox Tells Reporters To Enjoy Their Damn Hot Dogs

The Panthers Are In Real Trouble
The defending NFC champs are seeing their season slip away faster than anyone could have predicted.

Roberto Aguayo Goes From Goat To Hero By Finally Making A Field Goal<em></em>
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are a mediocre, waterlogged 2-3 team and the biggest story of their season is the fragile psyche of their kicker, who they traded up to draft in the second round.

The Bears Don't Know What They're Doing With Their Quarterbacks Either
The Chicago Bears have the following quarterbacks on their roster: Brian Hoyer, Matt Barkley, and Jay Cutler. Two of those dudes are bad.

I Already Feel Bad For Adam Gase
Quarterback whisperer Adam Gase was the hottest name on the NFL coaching market the last couple of years.

Marquette King Is Good At The Internet
Raiders punter Marquette King is one of the best at his position in the NFL, landing in the top 10 in almost every major statistical category.

I Want To Hug And Kiss Derek Carr's Touchdown Passes
There are a lot of ways for a quarterback to become famous.

Through the first few weeks of this season, Raiders quarterback Derek Car...

Mike McCoy Is Running Out Of Ways To Lose
Let it never be said that the Chargers lose boring. Dating back to the start of last season, 13 of San Diego’s 16 losses have come by a single score.
