The defending champion Rams were built to peak last year, and it worked, as they won the Super Bowl. But this season they fell back to earth, as trading draft picks and signing expensive veterans proved not to be the way to build a lasting winner. The Chiefs have a different approach. Kansas City has […]
The Cardinals made the playoffs in 2021 and they were seen as a team that could get back there heading into the 2022 season, but Week One was the first sign that all was not well in Arizona. They were routed 41-21 by the Chiefs in what safety Budda Baker called a “shitshow” from the […]
The Raiders drafted defensive end Maxx Crosby in the fourth round of the 2019 season. Derek Carr was in his sixth season as the Raiders’ quarterback then. But 2022 was Carr’s last season as the Raiders’ quarterback. He and the team will part ways one way or the other in the next week, leaving the […]

One week ago, the 49ers were preparing to face the Eagles in the NFC Championship. San Francisco’s opportunity to advance collapsed, primarily due to: (1) a decision to have a backup tight end block a premier pass rusher; and (2) that pass rusher hitting 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy in the arm and injuring his elbow. […]
The Bengals lost the AFC Championship Game after defensive end Joseph Ossai hit Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes out of bounds. The 15-yard penalty moved the Chiefs close enough for Harrison Butker to kick a game-winning field goal with three seconds left. Ossai, though, did not lose any money. The NFL did not fine Ossai for […]
49ers left tackle Trent Williams wasn’t the only player out of the NFC Championship Game to incur a fine from the NFL for actions in the NFC Championship Game. The NFL docked Eagles defensive lineman Brandon Graham $13,261 for unsportsmanlike conduct, NBCSportsPhiladelphia.com reports. Officials did not penalize Graham during the game last Sunday. Three 49ers […]
Jared Goff knows how Derek Carr is feeling right now. The Rams decided to move on from Goff two years ago and traded him to the Lions, and so Goff has experienced what Carr is experiencing now, as the Raiders prepare to trade or release him. And Goff said he’s been talking to Carr at […]
Raiders running back Josh Jacobs picked the right season to have a career year. He is scheduled for free agency in March after leading the league in rushing (1,653) and yards from scrimmage (2,053) and earning Pro Bowl and All-Pro honors.

Not long after Titans controlling owner Amy Adams Strunk hired Ran Carthon as General Manager, Carthon met with defensive linebacker Jeffery Simmons. Simmons applauded the hiring. “A thousand percent he’s a great hire,” Simmons told Jim Wyatt of the team website. “I think Miss Amy made a hell of a hire. The time we talked, […]
It’s not a mystery why the Patriots went 8-9 and missed the playoffs. While they ranked eighth in total defense and 11th in scoring defense, the Patriots were only 26th in total offense and 17th in scoring offense. Patriots linebacker Matthew Judon said there was never a division within the locker room and expressed faith […]
The Senior Bowl, a college all-star game that is far better known for the evaluation of players during the week of practice than for the game itself, happened on Saturday. The Nationals beat the Americans, 27-10. Which means absolutely nothing, unless you bet on the game. (And if you bet on the game, you might […]
It’s good that 49ers tackle Trent Williams isn’t retiring. He needs to earn back $12,731 that he lost as a result of last Sunday. Via NFL Media, Wiliams has been fined $12,731 for unnecessary roughness during the NFC Championship. Williams was ejected after throwing Eagles safety K’Von Wallace to the ground. Wallace also was ejected, but he […]

The Pro Bowl is no longer the Pro Bowl. Even though many still insist on calling it the Pro Bowl. It still includes a night of non-football activities. Tomorrow, it will culminate in a non-football game. They’ll play flag football. Which, but for the absence of pads, won’t look much different from recent Pro Bowls. […]
Tom Brady is done. That’s bad for the Buccaneers. It’s good for the teams with which the Buccaneers compete. Saints defensive end Cam Jordan is particularly happy to see Brady gone from the Bucs. “We salute him and wish him the best, in whatever next endeavor that is,” Jordan told Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network […]
After 49ers left tackle Trent Williams stopped short of guaranteeing he’d be back for the 2023 season in the wake of the team’s NFC Championship Game loss, head coach Kyle Shanahan sounded confident that Williams would eventually decide to keep playing. Shanahan picked the right horse with that bet. Williams, who no longer has the […]
