Patriots fans shouldn't worry about what Rob Parker, a guy who is responsible for such takes as calling RGIII a "cornball brother", said the Bengals were making Super Bowl 51 because his logic was it's boring to pick the Patriots, insulted Rod Marinelli's family as an attempt at humor, among...
I really like what the Tampa Bay Buccaneers did last season, and next season I expect a massive improvement from them. I see a major run to the Super Bowl next season from Tampa Bay.
This is Goodell and the NFL throwing it's weight around for the sole purpose of the upcoming CBA and it's financial implications with the revenue split. The revenue split I believe is currently at 47%. The players are going to look for more especially with what currently happened in the NBA. The...
Not trying to absolve Luck here, but the offensive playcalling for the Colts has been brutal and that lies squarely with Pep. From the Colts games that I have seen all they do is run go/post routes with the outside receivers and slant routes for the slot/TE. When they intercepted that ball in...
Apparently, Esiason started this one with a casual mention that the Jets asked the NFL to sweep their locker rooms for bugs and then he pulled the "that's what I was told last night". Sources within the Jets are denying this ever occurred.
I think Esiason is lying. Carton, who was conducting...
Spikes ≠ Lynch/Jackson
Yet they are often considered the best in the NFC, have won a Super Bowl, and went to another one. Plus, didn't this just happen yesterday? Wait and see approach.
The original intent is to draw a too many men on the field penalty. The offsides penalty was a 2nd option with the original center. Once the backup center came in, the 2nd option was no longer an option and they were supposed to take a DOG penalty if the Patriots did not bite on the too men on...
I haven't seen any report stating that Pagano did not ask his STs coach if they were prepared. That's just an assumption. I could assume that Pagano did ask him if they were ready and he said yes.
They did practice it except that the original center was hurt during the game.
McAfee said...
If the Patriots bite on the play which they didn't.
Again, Pagano thinks that the worst case scenario is a DOG penalty and -5 yards. The STs coach is responsible for relaying that to the STs unit. He did not.
The original intent of the play is to draw a 1st down through a New England penalty. When they drew it up they figured that if New England didn't bite the worst thing that could happen is a DOG penalty. The risk was not that high, the potential loss was low, and the probability that the play...
We can't accept pay raises from our current company or massive offers from other companies, turn around, and condemn athletes if they want a bigger contract with another team. It's a business.
By all accounts, Lionel Messi is a great team player, leader, and wants to win. He is also the 4th...
Kiko Alonso had a tremendous rookie season, but was injured last season and the Bills defense was still top notch. He became expendable and the Bills jumped on the chance to bring in a All-Pro running back who is versatile in the running and passing game.You can't discredit the immediate impact...
I keep thinking about the source for Schefter and Curran. Is it Belichick? Who else would know all this information? Belichick seems to me like a firm believer in keep your friends close and your enemies closer. He knows Kensil. He knows how messed up that Colts organization is. He knows...
Connect the dots. Kensil is the leak. Kensil the man in charge of all of this, is now being uncovered from the ground and the NFL will not like what comes next.
I was positive after yesterdays report that we wouldn't hear anything else. Boy how wrong I was (and gladly so). Some more quick observations:
Grigson is doing damage control. His name is going to show up on the Wells Report. He knows this. He is trying to get this information out there so...
Eh, it was just Schefter's wording. They already changed it to NFL employee.
Quick observations
Kensil is the leak. The initial leaks were in an effort to embarass the Patriots, but when the Patriots fought back, Kensil tried to strike back and it has destroyed the credibility of many...
It seems like Bettis and Carter are the only ones that are banging this drum loudly. Even Kravitz and Doyel have backed off. It's so hilarious that the Patriots still after all these years make Bettis get mad because they won the Super Bowl.

Defensive players like Carl Banks love that play because it just shows defense wins championships. People need context. That play doesn't happen if not for the luckiest catch in football. So things evened out.
Collinsworth did affect how people view that play because of his meltdown. If he...
This is where we as people need to be very careful. The power of the media to create the narrative instead of comment on it. It struck me with Deflategate and it was even more concerning with the way they tore apart Marshawn Lynch.
I remember hearing the First Take podcast and Stephen A Smith...
