2023 Will Be the Season That Sees a Division Send Four Teams
Ever since the playoff field was expanded to include an additional team in each conference, people have been asking, when will one division send all four teams to the playoffs?

Why the Detroit Lions Had One of the Worst Drafts Ever
I'm not one of those guys who believes in draft grades. It'll take two, maybe three years to really see who won or lost this draft.

The Las Vegas Raiders Should Trade Darren Waller
Earlier this week, reports out of Las Vegas are that the Raiders might be open to trading Darren Waller and Hunter Renfrow, two of the team's more consistent weapons in recent times. Last off-season, when people were still optimistic about the Raiders, it was the trio of Davante Adams, Hunter Renfrow, and Darren Waller that... Continue Reading →
Derek Carr Is the Perfect Fit for the San Francisco 49ers
This off-season looks to be absolutely fascinating on the quarterback carousel. Tom Brady, Aaron Rodgers, Lamar Jackson, Derek Carr, and Jimmy Garoppolo look to be old faces in new places while Bryce Young, C.J.
