At this point, it does not feel like the football community has a unified take on the state of the New York Giants. The New York Giants Lacking A Clear Identity Moving Forward On the one hand, they have some undeniably excellent cornerstones; a highly regarded, well-liked and offensive mastermind head coach, a formidable left tackle in Andrew Thomas, and a defensive line that can run with the NFL’s best. On the other hand: everything else. A weak secondary and an on-paper mediocre linebacking corps had many holes transiently filled by the genius of now-departed defensive coordinator, Don “Wink” Martindale,…

The San Francisco 49ers must be wondering what more they need to do to finally reach the promised land; a Lombardi Trophy. With no perceivable weaknesses on the roster, outside of a perhaps slightly below par, in pass protection at least, right hand side of the offensive line, the 49ers will have to be rubbing their heads, trying to figure out how to beat Patrick Mahomes.] Kyle Shanahan Cannot Catch A Break In The Big Game Kyle Shanahan has now reached 3 Super Bowls; 2 as head coach of the Niners and the last as the offensive coordinator of the…

The Dallas Cowboys have had a difficult offseason, by almost any standard barometer. A Tough Offseason Worsened By Looming Decisions To Be Made On Key Players Dak Prescott has been the surprise talk of the town this offseason, with his future in Dallas beyond 2024 still very much in doubt, having just 1 year remaining on his 4 year, $160 million deal signed in 2021. Many have started to speculate whether the Cowboys will start to potentially put out feelers for Prescott, and trade him before the start of this season. Yet, even without the noise, it has still been…

Antonio Pierce certainly raised eyebrows when owner, Mark Davis, announced him as the full time head coach of the Las Vegas after a very successful spell as interim HC after the firing of former New England Patriots offensive coordinator, Josh McDaniels. Antonio Pierce Now The Man In Charge In The Desert However, after receiving the public backing, and borderline organizational threat of the Raiders’ best player, Maxx Crosby, with many reports detailing the respect and admiration Las Vegas’ players had for Pierce, it became clear that Davis could not repeat the mistake of 2021, where Rich Bisaccia was not retained…

JJ McCarthy has leapt up draft boards, according to reports, at least, ever since the end of the first waves of free agency, as attention slowly starts to move towards the 2024 NFL draft in 10 days time. The NFL Cannot Seem To Unify Its Opinion on JJ McCarthy Although McCarthy was not asked to carry his team the same way Heisman Trophy winners, Caleb Williams and Jayden Daniels both did this past season, many NFL coaches and scouts believe the work McCarthy did produce on tape, combined with his evidently impressive physical traits, including a rocket arm, may well…

The writing has been on the wall for the New England Patriots’ quarterback situation ever since Mac Jones was replaced as the starter for former 4th round pick, Bailey Zappe, with just 5 games to go in the 2023. And after Jones was subsequently traded to the Jacksonville Jaguars, New England Patriots Looking For Their First True Franchise Quarterback Since Tom Brady Ever since having the 3rd overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft confirmed at the close of the 2023 regular season, the Patriots have started a meticulous search for their quarterback of the future, in what is widely…

The Philadelphia Eagles’ 2023 season ended in a historic collapse; losing 5 out of their last 6 games after racing ahead to a league-best 10-1 record to start the season after a narrow Super Bowl LVII defeat to the Kansas City Chiefs; yet it seems that the feeling at Lincoln Financial Field – is that of hope. The Philadelphia Eagles Looking To Get Back On Track After 2023 Collapse Whilst the Eagles lost future Hall of Fame center, Jason Kelce, to retirement, and traded star pass rusher, Haason Reddick, to the New York Jets, they still managed to make big…

The Cincinnati Bengals continue to chase that elusive Super Bowl championship. The Cincinnati Bengals Seemingly Always The Bridesmaid, Never The Bride Despite reaching the Big Game on 3 separate occasions in Super Bowls XVI, XXIII and LVI, losing to California-based teams in all 3, the Bengals have been unable to secure a Lombardi Trophy since their inaugural 1968 season. Even though the team has had extended periods of success in 1980s and 90s with quarterbacks Ken Anderson and Boomer Esiason, they never managed to convert regular season wins and post-season runs into championships. In the contemporary era, it has been…

After a thoroughly disappointing offensive showing to round out the season, in their home loss to reigning and current champions, the Kansas City Chiefs, the Baltimore Ravens seem to be going backwards this offseason, rather than forwards. Baltimore Ravens Still Needing Offensive Playmaking Upgrades The AFC Championship finalists and #1 seed lost not 1, or 2, but 3 starting offensive lineman since the start of free agency, bringing in only former Arizona Cardinals backup tackle, Josh Jones, for depth purposes. Moreover, the Ravens have failed to upgrade their receiver corps after losing important contributing veteran, Odell Beckham Jr, who will…

Rashee Rice’s offseason continues to get worse and worse. Rashee Rice’s Car Involved In Serious Vehicular Incident After being seen fleeing from the scene of a multi-vehicle accident, Rice faced up to 10 years in prison on account of leasing the car involved in a street race that resulted in a hit-and-run, 6 car crash. Nearly an ounce of marijuana (10.8g), was found in the Super Bowl winner’s car after the accident – however, in the state of Texas, this amount would only qualify as essentially the lowest level misdemeanor possible. Although Rice has spoken publicly and taken accountability for…
