The Detroit Lions shocked the NFL on opening night when they marched into Arrowhead Stadium on Thursday Night and knocked off the reigning Super Bowl Champs.  The Kansas City Chiefs were down two stars in their matchup vs. the Lions, Travis Kelce (injury) and DT Chris Jones (holdout). By the end of the game, however, the biggest storyline (next to the Lions winning) was the numerous missed penalties on the Chiefs.  A series of missed calls against Kansas City Chiefs’ tackle Jawaan Taylor during the team’s 21-20 loss to the Detroit Lions had social media buzzing. Detroit Lions Fans Take…

The Kansas City Chiefs’ title defense didn’t start off the way they had intended.  A 21-20 defeat to the Detroit Lions spoiled some of their Super Bowl celebrations.  Many of their issues stemmed from the wide receivers.  Most notably, Kadarius Toney.  Toney finished the night with 1 reception (for -1 yard) and 3 drops.  One of those drops resulted in a pick-6 for the Detroit Lions. Immediately following the Kansas City Chiefs’ loss, they were named as a prime candidate for one veteran wide receiver who may be on the trade block. Kansas City Chiefs Widely Named As A Trade…

The Kansas City Chiefs and Detroit Lions kick off the 2023 NFL season tonight at 8:20pm ET.  As the new season approaches so do the infamous injury reports.  As the Chiefs prepare to start their title defense, one of their star players is questionable to play, however, a statement made today may shed some light on his availability. Kansas City Chiefs May Have Just Gotten A Clearer Picture Of Travis Kelce’s Availability Tonight Vs Detroit Lions During Thursday morning’s episode of “Good Morning Football,” Clark Hunt, the CEO of the Chiefs, spoke about Kelce’s injury and what he expects to…

The Dallas Cowboys have had an extremely interesting off-season.  Much has been made about the Cowboys’ decision to trade for former top draft pick Trey Lance.  In reaction to that news, many have been questioning the future of Dak Prescott in Dallas.  Could the Cowboys have a long-term plan that doesn’t involve the 30-year-old veteran quarterback?  One report seems to think so. Stephen A. Smith Suggests The Dallas Cowboys Should Trade Dak Prescott Following The 2023 Season Stephen A. Smith suggested on First Take that the Cowboys could trade Prescott after the 2023 season if he has another down year.…

Aaron Rodgers and the New York Jets start their title pursuit this Sunday.  After the Jets agreed to trade multiple premium draft picks for a four-time MVP quarterback, they feel like they are squarely in their Super Bowl window.  That pursuit will start Week One against the Buffalo Bills.  One of Aaron Rodgers’ former teammates is currently playing for the Bills, however, he is in doubt to miss the season opener. Aaron Rodgers’ Former Teammate Micah Hyde Questionable To Start The Season A back injury that recently flared up caused Micah Hyde to miss practice on Wednesday. This was confirmed…

To say this offseason has been a whirlwind for Kyler Murray and the Arizona Cardinals is an understatement.  Murray will start 2023 on the physically unable to perform (PUP) list after undergoing surgery to repair a torn ACL late last season. Much has been made about the Cardinals’ off-season decisions as well.  Most notably, Arizona traded away the 8th overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft, Isaiah Simmons, to the New York Giants for a 2024 seventh round draft pick.  There have also been rumors that the Cardinals may choose to sit Kyler Murray the entire season to ensure a…

The Carolina Panthers find themselves in the middle of a difficult situation when it comes to Brian Burns.  Burns, who is a two-time Pro Bowler and playing on his fifth-year rookie option this year, has reportedly never considered holding out in order to force a new contract.  However, that may have since changed as Burns is currently not participating with the team. In the wake of Brian Burns missing team walkthroughs today, head coach Frank Reich refused to provide any details regarding his absence, including whether it was related to his contract with the team.   Reich: “Do I hope he’s…

The Chicago Bears are headed into a pivotal year.  The franchise committed to Justin Fields this off-season when they traded away the number one overall draft pick to the Carolina Panthers.  That trade enabled Chicago to add weapons around Fields.  Something they didn’t have much of last year. Having a well-rounded team will help the young quarterback succeed as early as possible.  That means having a defense that won’t give up more than 27 points per game.  Chicago ranked dead last in points allowed per game last season (27.2).  That has to change, and one free agent could help. Chicago…

The Denver Broncos are heading into a season with unusually large expectations.  After trading for Russell Wilson last off-season, the 2022 campaign went about as poorly as it could have.  The Broncos finished 5-12, well outside of playoff conversation, and had one of the worst-ranked offenses in the league. Following the season the Broncos fired first year head coach Nathaniel Hackett and brought it veteran head coach Sean Payton.  Even after finishing 5-12 last year, expectations around Denver are a complete 180.  Something that could help with that?  A three-time pro bowl defensive end. The Denver Broncos Named Prime Candidate…

The Cincinnati Bengals have massive expectations going into the 2023 season.  The Bengals have been to the AFC Championship two years in a row.  With Joe Burrow leading the team, that feels expected now in Cincinnati. The Bengals certainly have one of the better rosters in the NFL.  However, that hasn’t stopped them from being linked to one pro bowl defender who could make a difference. Cincinnati Bengals Linked To Free Agent Defensive Tackle Akiem Hicks Alex Ballentine of Bleacher Report highlighted why this move would be good for the Bengals: The Cincinnati Bengals have one of the most complete…
