The reckoning is coming. It hasn’t arrived yet, but it’s coming.

The outcome is […]
The last two Raiders’ seasons have concluded in a similar, though not identical, manner. In 2019, the team started 6-4 before losing five of their last six games to finish 7-9. The Raiders were technically still in the playoff hunt through their Week 17, but they would’ve needed massive help to make it. And then […]
Here’s to those who wish us well, and those who don’t can go to hell. Of course, those who wish us well may not be telling the truth. When it comes to the curious and unexpected attacks by running back Le'Veon Bell on Chiefs coach Andy Reid, Bell isn’t buying the kind words recently articulated […]

Washington was looking at taking a potential quarterback of the future with their first-round pick in the spring’s draft. But with five off the board by the time the Football Team came on the clock, linebacker Jamin Davis was the pick at No. 19 overall. Though he was only a one-year starter at Kentucky, Davis […]
Burnout. It’s a not-uncommon phenomenon for football coaches, especially for those who cook the candle at both ends, and in the middle. For Rams coach Sean McVay, the burnout question has loomed in league circles for a couple of years. Given the fact that Tony Romo makes $1 million per week to call games and […]
Defensive tackle Eli Ankou‘s May visit with the Bills did not result in a deal, but a June meeting could have a different result. Sal Capaccio of WGR 550 reports that Ankou is in Buffalo for the second time this offseason. The Bills have three open roster spots, so a deal could happen at any […]
As long as the Chiefs have Andy Reid and Patrick Mahomes, they’re going to be one of the league’s most explosive offenses.

Lost in the entire discussion and debate regarding whether players will or won’t get the COVID vaccine is the unmistakable link between: (1) getting the vaccine; (2) being available to play; and (3) setting the stage for a season with reduced distractions. It’s a simple, clear, bright-line bit of logic. Getting the shot(s) means one […]
There will be no vaccination requirement for fans to attend Bills games this year.
