Most Embarrassing NFL Team Now Has Most Embarrassing Slogan
It’s never good to be a sports franchise that is so synonymous with failure that the prospect of brighter days ahead seems all but unimaginable.

The Football World Can't Even See The NFL's Rotten Core
NFL training camps are booting up this week, and that means it’s time for some of the very best players in the league to indicate that they won’t be attending, and in some cases to threaten that they will be sitting out the entire regular season as well.

Sean McVay's Memory Is So Damn Scary
NFL coaches are supposed to have a solid memory. It’s almost a prerequisite for the position. Rams head coach Sean McVay, the youngest head coach in the league, takes that quality to another level.

The NFL Is So Bad At This

The NFL's New Helmet Rule Somehow Got Even More Confusing

Titans' Jurrell Casey Says He'll Keep Protesting Injustice Despite NFL's New Anthem Policy
Titans defensive lineman Jurrell Casey regularly demonstrated during the national anthem before games last season, and even though NFL owners have crafted an absurd policy designed to ensure that everyone “shows respect for the flag and the Anthem” (which was never the issue), the Pro Bowler says he...
