Who will be the next head coach of the Indianapolis Colts? This is a tough question to answer. Once again, the Colts held interviews for the position and just completed the second round with a number of candidates. And, believe it or not, Mike Garofolo of NFL Network reported that the Colts could even have a THIRD round of interviews. https://twitter.com/mikegarafolo/status/1621174585231015936?s=46&t=li-ipCBs_HIvZsafsqhNPQ&fbclid=IwAR1PK7v31wbdErYXxAPEqv33uNXXkY97i03Cd8plyc-3udAFVjZ-UkbWVVM This is a rare situation if the Colts do end up going with a third round. DeMeco Ryans and Sean Payton, two of the top names, didn’t meet with the Colts. Furthermore, many believe that former interim head coach…

Is the NFL rigged? This has been a popular question as of late, especially after the Kansas City Chiefs beat the Cincinnati Bengals in the AFC title game. The game was full of controversial calls and no calls, and it has sparked a highly-discussed conversation on whether the NFL is scripted or not. Former Houston Texans star running back Arian Foster hopped on a Barstool Sports podcast and gave some pretty eye-opening comments about whether or not he thinks the NFL is rigged. https://twitter.com/PFTCommenter/status/1620482042902495234 Of course, social media exploded with a ton of thoughts on Foster’s comment.

The NFL Pro Bowl is becoming an unwatchable event. This year, a large number of players aren’t participating for a variety of reasons, and players are being named as replacements every day. With the Pro Bowl festivities taking part this week, the final roster is starting to take shape. On Tuesday, Baltimore Ravens QB Tyler Huntley was named to the roster as a replacement for Josh Allen. Then, Las Vegas Raiders QB Derek Carr was named as the final QB for the AFC, joining Huntley and Trevor Lawrence. After Carr received the news, he gave a hilarious response on Twitter…
That didn’t take long. On Sunday, the Dallas Cowboys made headlines when it was reported that offensive coordinator Kellen Moore and the team agreed to mutually part ways. That sent one of the hottest OC names into the market. Two teams immediately surfaced as possibilities: The Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the Los Angeles Chargers. On Monday morning, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported that Moore is “expected” to be the Chargers’ new OC in a quick move by the LA front office. https://twitter.com/RapSheet/status/1620101310472396800 The Chargers made changes after a stunning collapse in the Wild Card Round against the Jacksonville Jaguars,…
The end of the Philadelphia Eagles and San Francisco 49ers NFC Championship Game was ugly. Brock Purdy returned to the game after injuring his elbow since Josh Johnson was ruled out with a concussion. The 49ers’ hopes went out the window with Purdy barely able to throw the ball, and tensions boiled over. With just a few minutes remaining in the game, 49ers OT Trent Williams got into it and threw down Eagles safety K’Von Wallace, resulting in a huge brawl that saw a couple of players get ejected. https://twitter.com/uSTADIUM/status/1619832899158827010?s=20&t=7ApHDJ4bv8jzzquZBDmZWw Both Wallace and Williams were ejected from the game and…
By far the biggest name on the market for NFL teams looking for a new head coach is Sean Payton. However, with the regular season being over for nearly a month, Payton has yet to become a coach anywhere as of right now. It’s no secret that most teams would go all-in to bring Sean Payton in as their next head coach, but each coming day has essentially brought the possibility down to next to nothing. The Carolina Panthers hired Frank Reich. The Houston Texans are reportedly close to landing DeMeco Ryans, and the Arizona Cardinals and Denver Broncos have…
Championship weekend is here in the NFL. The Cincinnati Bengals face the Kansas City Chiefs at Arrowhead Stadium for the second year in a row. The San Francisco 49ers fly East to face the Philadelphia Eagles in another terrific matchup, and both games are essentially coin flips. Jalen Hurts and the upstart Eagles against the 49ers and their tough defense, not to mention Mr. Irrelevenat Brock Purdy at QB. In the other game, it is an AFC title game rematch from last year and Joe Burrow against an injured Patrick Mahomes. However, there are some confusing and stunning ticket price…
What are the Denver Broncos doing in their coaching search? Over the weekend, more answers were revealed regarding the direction of the Broncos’ decision. For starters, it was reported that 49ers DC DeMeco Ryans is no longer interested in the Denver job, instead shifting his focus to the Houston Texans job. https://twitter.com/jasrifootball/status/1619710993562755072?s=20&t=voz0udeO5XKnqmLQ_CIB2w&fbclid=IwAR1HN26gnXICz0jTNxtvj6YQck7cQ3ZGm-EMqqk90VirV9wnZ9_ObmLttmU Moreover, Dan Quinn returned to the Dallas Cowboys, and no second interview is scheduled for Sean Payton. As far as the other candidates, Tom Pelissero and Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported the following: Rams DC Raheem Morris, former Stanford coach David Shaw, former Lions and Colts coach…
The NFL news cycle never ends, especially during this time of year. On Thursday, former Denver Broncos HC Nathaniel Hackett was named as the New York Jets offensive coordinator, sparking a ton of Aaron Rodgers rumors in New York. On Friday, former Jets OC Mike LaFleur was named as the new OC of the Los Angeles Rams, as reported by Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. https://twitter.com/RapSheet/status/1619011942592688128 Mike LaFleur spent a few seasons with the San Francisco 49ers before following Robert Saleh to New York. However, after two years with the Jets, LaFleur was let go and immediately became one of…
The Kansas City Chiefs and Cincinnati Bengals are meeting in the AFC Championship Game for the second straight season. A year ago, the Bengals topped the Chiefs and went on to the Super Bowl only to lose to the Los Angeles Rams. This year, Patrick Mahomes is injured (but will play), and the Bengals are a popular pick to win another AFC title and return to the Super Bowl. There are plenty of weapons for both teams on both sides of the ball, although the Bengals’ young flurry of stars such as Joe Burrow, JaMarr Chase, tee Higgins, and Joe…
