Jerod Mayo is bringing a new (and correct) attitude to the Patriots
Jerod Mayo won his introductory press conference. Robert Kraft told the media that it was instinct that led him to choose Mayo as the new head coach of the New England Patriots. In his first public moment in this new role, Mayo’s message was one of both collaboration and boundaries. Once the staff a...
Yes, the Ravens look strong, but the numbers say 'buyer beware'
The Baltimore Ravens will play their first playoff game of the season this coming weekend after securing a bye due to being the AFC’s top seed. They finished the season 13-4, and despite not having key players like tight end Mark Andrews or wide receiver Devin Duvernay, they trampled almost everyone...
Amazon buying a minority stake in Diamond Sports is a rare win for fans
The only streaming platform fans want a sporting event aired on is one in which they already have a subscription. That’s why, on the surface, Amazon buying a minority stake in Diamond Sports is a rare win for the people who make these franchises profitable. (No, not the owners. The fans.) The move a...
Dan Quinn went from top coaching candidate to consolation prize overnight
This time last year Dallas Cowboys defensive coordinator Dan Quinn was the talk of the town and the hottest potential head-coaching candidate in the NFL.

Bills Mafia definitely having a good laugh at the expense of frostbit Chiefs fans
It’s a good thing Kansas City goes on the road this weekend because I’m not sure their fans have thawed yet. According to reports, 69 people were treated by the fire department during Saturday’s Wild Card win, with half showing signs of hypothermia. Fifteen people were sent to the hospital, with thr...
Sex-harassment lawsuits are not a new thing for James Dolan
James Dolan has once again found himself with legal problems.

A new suit agai...
The Washington Commanders are this offseason’s most intriguing team
The Washington Commanders have new ownership and a new GM, with a new coach and quarterback presumably on the way as well. Like a dog who finally catches the mailman, fans in the DMV pined for Dan Snyder’s removal with such fervor that I’m not sure they know what to do now that it’s happened. It’s r...
It’s time to give Jordan Love and the Packers their flowers
Wild Card Weekend in the NFL is a wrap and while it wasn’t as exciting as billed, it did lead to some shocking moments.

Baker Mayfield has that mischievousness about him again
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ margin for error coming into the season was pretty high for a team that had low expectations and a quarterback the rest of the league passed on. They have a receiving corps that’s healthy, deep and full of playmakers to go with a defense that’s also healthy and rife with bi...
The Pistons should be sending thank you cards to the Lions
Midway through January of 2024, Detroit exists at the cross-section of grief and euphoria. Grief for the terminally ill Detroit Pistons and euphoria towards the Detroit Lions reanimating.
