This week in the NFL March 09, 2024
Back in 2021, Britt Reid, then the Chiefs’ linebackers coach and son of celebrated Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid, left team headquarters drunk, smashed his truck into two cars stopped on the side of the interstate at 84 mph, and put five-year-old Ariel Young into a coma. Young sustained a ...

Should Broncos fans, or anyone, have faith in Denver’s front office anymore?
Nathaniel Hackett is who we thought he was, and the last time head coach Sean Payton won a ring the sports world was still a month away from being introduced to Brad Stevens and the Butler Bulldogs. Putting the Denver Broncos’ mistakes all on Russell Wilson’s shoulders is a cowardly move....

Russell Wilson, the most sound and fury signifying the most nothing
One can’t help but wonder if Russell Wilson had just thrown that last pass in Super Bowl 49 into the third row how the rest of it might have played out. Seattle would likely have had consecutive Super Bowls, he’d be a god in the PNW, and perhaps everyone would have had more patience for the mountain...

Sounds like nobody wants Russell Wilson — unless he gets cut

What the hell is wrong with Sean Payton?
Earth to Sean Payton: Russell Wilson is still on the Denver Broncos’ roster. There is nothing the Denver coach can say to make that $85 million in dead salary go away. The NFL salary cap for the 2024 season will be $255.4 million. That dead money would account for a third of their cap space, and the...

Mike Tannebaum's Jets prediction makes you wonder how he ever became a GM in the first place
A Get Up segment by former NFL general manager Mike Tannenbaum just created a hypothetical NFL locker room so chaotic it hurts to think about. ...

The playoffs will not be easy for the Ravens and 49ers
The end of the NFL regular season is always a sad day. It signals that only four weeks of NFL games remain until the second week of September. That means I have to spend my next seven months of Sunday afternoons with commercials since there is no RedZone for the rest of the season. (Also, RedZone on...

This week in the NFL: Travis Kelce is not pleased; Russell Wilson done in Denver?; Antonio Pierce disrespected in Vegas
Travic Kelce let it all out on an episode of his “New Heights” podcast with brother and Philadelphia Eagles center Jason. After the Chiefs lost three of their last four games, Travis called it “a frustrating f**king experience” and said that everyone – including himself – is contributing to the offe...

The Broncos have money problems with Russell Wilson, but at least they’re not the Browns
In case I did not make myself clear on Tuesday, the Deshaun Watson contract is never happening again. In the future, no NFL player will ever receive a fully guaranteed contract. For one thing, Patrick Mahomes is not going to push the Kansas City Chiefs for that type of deal. Two, when the Denver Bro...

The Broncos are the NFL’s biggest walking plot twist
An 18-week NFL schedule creates a plethora of nexus points where the season diverts from its expected path. Aaron Rodgers tearing his Achilles four plays into the season, the New England Patriots crashing, CJ Stroud flying out the rookie gates, Frank Reich being fired after 11 games and two rookies ...

This week in the NFL November 18, 2023
The relationship between Stefon Diggs and the Buffalo Bills has reportedly been shaky for some time. Monday Night’s performance at home against the Denver Broncos did little to make Diggs want to stick around past this season. Diggs’ brother Trevon (Dallas Cowboys cornerback) couldn’t contain his fr...

Courtland Sutton wants you to tell Russell Wilson you're sorry
Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton has seen enough and is convinced that Russell Wilson is owed an apology nine games into the season. He’s so committed to this notion that he posted a “Russell Wilson apology form” on his Instagram story, which is now circulating on Twitter....
