Scott Tolzien In Primetime: Today's Guide To Ignoring The NFL
All the attention soaked up by the presidential election was one of the possible reasons for the NFL’s season-long ratings malaise, but a few weeks later, nationally broadcast games still aren’t where they used to be....
Antonio Brown Was Just About Perfect
There’s no such thing as a “perfect game” for a wide receiver, but if such a thing did exist, Antonio Brown came very close to pitching one last night....
Josh Norman Got Himself A New Arch Enemy In Dez Bryant
I think it’s fair to say that the guy who came out of the Great Football Beef of 2015 looking the most like a hothead was Odell Beckham Jr. But yesterday’s game between Washington and Dallas, which included Norman getting into it with Cowboys wide receiver Dez Bryant during and after the game, was a...

Steve Smith Doesn't Give A "Flying Fuck" About Rookies Who Hate Him
Steve Smith has now successfully gotten under the skin of two rookie cornerbacks. He riled up the Jaguars’ Jalen Ramsey so thoroughly during their Week 3 matchup that Ramsey went on an anti-Smith rant after the game. This past Sunday, Smith talked so much shit to the Cowboys’ Anthony Brown that the ...
Bill Belichick Not Amused By Buttfumble Question
Yesterday marked the four-year anniversary of the infamous and hilarious buttfumble. This inspired a reporter to jokingly bring up the incident during Patriots head coach Bill Belichick’s press conference today. You know how this is gonna go:...
Whoever Hacked Marcell Dareus Did A Good Job
Early this morning, the above post appeared on the Instagram feed of Bills defensive tackle Marcell Dareus. Next to a perhaps unflattering photo of himself, Dareus appears to torch the NFL, the Bills, Rex Ryan, the team’s owner, its fans, and its fans’ kids before quitting altogether so he can smoke...
Jay Cutler's Time In Chicago Is Probably Over With
As Barry wrote a month ago, Jay Cutler is highly unlikely to return to the Chicago Bears next year. He’s 33 years old and the Bears have to pay him $16 million dollars if they keep him next year, which would be an outrageous amount to pay the disgruntled sort-of-good quarterback of a 2-8 team in ful...
Browns Charge Job-Seekers Up To $105 To Enter Useless "Career Fair"<em></em>
The Cleveland Browns hosted a career fair last weekend that, in keeping with the Browns’ reputation, did not actually offer many jobs, and left multiple paid attendees feeling cheated....
The Chiefs Have Real Problems
Late last week I pitched an article about the Chiefs. Heading into Week 11, they had won five straight and were in line for the AFC’s No. 2 seed. But, I proposed to question, are the Chiefs actually any good? The response I got from an editor was to wait to see how the Chiefs did during Sunday’s hom...
The Texans Are Steamed Over Some Questionable Officiating
The Texans’ 27-20 loss to the Raiders might have looked very different had a call or two gone Houston’s way, and a visibly pissed Bill O’Brien had to hold his tongue after the game to avoid getting fined....
Brock Osweiler Said Laser Pointer From Stands Affected His Play
It was like a freaking Laser Floyd show in Mexico City last night, with someone in the pro-Raiders crowd shining a big-ass green laser pointer at Brock Osweiler in an attempt to distract the Texans’ QB in Houston’s2 7-20 loss. It worked: Osweiler called it “very distracting” and said it “certainly a...

Report: Adrian Peterson Could Be Back In A Month
Adrian Peterson’s career with the Vikings looked like it might have ended when he tore his meniscus in the second game of the season against the Packers. He had surgery two months ago, right after the injury, but even then, the prospects of return in 2016 looked bleak. Minimum recovery time from a “...
Blake Bortles Bortled Again
Upon witnessing Blake Bortles throw an interception off his own player’s shoe last week against the Texans, you may have thought: “Well, here’s something I’ll never see again in my life.” If so, may I say: Friend, you underestimated Blake Bortles....

Joe Thomas Is Also Frustrated With The Browns' Offensive Line
After Cody Kessler was forced from Sunday’s 24-9 loss to the Steelers because of concussion protocol, Terrelle Pryor called the continued hits on the Browns’ rotating cast of quarterbacks “bullcrap,” while venting his frustration that the offensive line was allowing too many tackles....
