Marcus Peters Says If Sean Payton Keeps Talking Shit They Will Have A "Nice Lil' Bowl Of Gumbo" Together
If you are not already aware of the fact that Rams cornerback Marcus Peters makes for a fantastic locker-room interview, allow me to rectify that for you....
This Malcolm Brown Touchdown Catch Is An Unreal Feat Of Body Control
This twinkle-toed touchdown reception by Rams running back Malcolm Brown, in which he somehow manages to dodge two onrushing Saints defenders and keep his feet inbounds despite having to do it all with just a sliver of grass between him, them, and the sideline, is just incredible....
The Browns Are Being The Browns
Happy Halloween from Emergency Football Show Weekly! This week Dom and I discuss the Browns’ coaching changes, why morning NFL games are so great (Dom—and West Coasters—may disagree), Michael Dickson’s fourth-down run and Todd Gurley’s decision to go down before scoring a touchdown. Enjoy!...
Big Fucking Shock: The NFL's Move To L.A. Looks To Be A Financial Disaster
From the moment each team arrived in L.A., it was clear that nobody who actually lived there gave a shit about the Rams or Chargers. Both teams have struggled mightily to sell out their stadiums, and the fans who do show up tend to be fans of the opposing squads. It’s not all that surprising then to...
Jalen Ramsey Has Reached The "Give The Same Answer To Every Question" Stage Of The Season
Maybe you’re a real smart guy who predicted that last year’s trip to the AFC Championship game was going to go down as more of an aberration for this era of Jaguars football rather than a sign of things to come. But nobody could have been prepared for Jacksonville’s defense, the unanimous Best Defen...

Cooper Kupp Carted Off After Nasty-Looking Knee Injury [Update]
Cooper Kupp’s afternoon came to an early, violent end, when his left knee buckled under him as Darian Stewart brought him down with a horse collar tackle. Kupp immediately grabbed his leg in pain, and he had to be carted off the field. It initially looked like Kupp hurt his ankle, though the Rams la...
Emmanuel Sanders's Finger-Wag Celebration Cost The Broncos Dearly
I’ll be the first to admit that the taunting penalty is one of the lamest things about the NFL. In a hyper-aggressive game like football, you’ve got to give players room to express emotions on the field, otherwise it gets held in and boils over. That being said, this taunt might have been a little e...
Pete Carroll Gave Sean McVay A Second Chance To Make The Game-Winning Call
The Rams stayed undefeated and extended their lead in the NFC West with a close-run 33-31 road win over the Seahawks, and it all ultimately came down to a matter of inches and seconds. Facing fourth down and about the length of a football with 1:39 left, the Rams sent their punt unit out onto the fi...
This Hit On Brandin Cooks Was Somehow Not Flagged
The NFL appears to have completely abandoned its newly-instated helmet rule that caused loads of controversy in the first couple weeks of the preseason. No penalties were called on Tedric Thompson after he nearly took Brandin Cooks head clean off of his body late in the second quarter of Rams-Seahaw...
It's The Perfect Storm For Offenses In The NFL
The NFL is in the midst of a genuine offensive revolution. It’s also the latest phase of an evolution, given that teams have been passing more frequently and attacking defenses with additional receivers since the early part of this decade. But this year, something’s up. Way up. Scoring is off the ch...
Aaron Donald Figured Out How To Get Around The Roughing The Passer Rule
The NFL revised the roughing the passer rule as a poorly thought out reaction to Aaron Rodgers’s broken collarbone last season, and so far it’s resulted in flags for a bunch of routine sacks and one season-ending injury for a defensive player. Aaron Donald, a neutron star who happens to play as a de...
Q&A: Eric Dickerson On The Hall Of Fame Firestorm And Hating Those "Fuckers" At The NFL
Pro Football Hall of Famer Eric Dickerson has been making the rounds this week, ever since he spearheaded the drafting of a letter that demands better benefits for retired NFL players—at first, specifically Hall of Famers. The rollout of that letter and the fallout that has ensued has been messy, to...
Sean McVay Is Doing The Spooky Brain Thing Again
They say that humans only use 10 percent of our brains. They go on to say that the claim that humans only use 10 percent of our brains—in addition to being a major plot point of the delightful Albert Brooks movie Defending Your Life—is a myth. Truly they cannot be trusted on this matter, but this mu...
Marshawn Lynch Puts Both Teams On His Back For The First Touchdown Of The Gruden Era
The soon-to-be Las Vegas Raiders are getting it done early in Oakland thanks to one of the strongest feats of human strength ever seen on a football field. Marshawn Lynch showed he still had some “Beast Mode” left in the tank when he dragged almost the entirety of the Rams’ defense, and a couple of ...
NHL Players Are Annoyed At Noted Shit-Talker Jalen Ramsey For Talking Shit
With the NBA season still over a month away from starting, NHL players needed a new source from which to draw their insecurity....
Aaron Donald Finally Gets His Money
After playing the first four years of his career on a shitty rookie contract, after two consecutive lengthy offseason holdouts, and after becoming the best defensive tackle in football, Aaron Donald has finally convinced the Rams to pay him....

Why Would Todd Gurley Need Preseason, Anyway?
Los Angeles Rams coach Sean McVay decided, for various reasons, not to play all but one of his starters in his team’s first two preseason games. Most will sit out Saturday’s game against Houston, including quarterback Jared Goff and running back Todd Gurley. Next week, per tradition, no starters wil...
How Will Jalen Ramsey Ever Recover From These Burns?
Jaguars cornerback Jalen Ramsey did us all the favor of telling GQ exactly which NFL quarterbacks are bad trash and which are actually good. Ramsey’s takes were entertaining and refreshing on their own, but they have also provided us with another level of entertainment: each maligned quarterback bei...
Jalen Ramsey Can Tell You Exactly Why Josh Allen Is "Trash"
GQ has an interview with Jaguars star cornerback and master shit-talker Jalen Ramsey out today, and it will surely be the most entertaining thing you read all day.
