Hits and Misses, Week 2
Alright, time to double check my takes on the NFL and see just how right or wrong they are. Honestly, I thought we’d get more clarity after the Week 2 games. Instead it looks like half the league is a toss up. We may not know yet who’s going to be good or bad, but… Read more

Gridiron Preview, Week 2
It was a great weekend of football! The schedule makers gave us tremendous football in the primetime windows. Thursday night, Friday night and Sunday night were down to the wire slugfests between teams that you know are going to be in the playoffs. And the quality of football was good.

Tale of the Tape, Week 1
Now that the games have been played and reviewed (yes I’ve watched the game film on every game from Week 1) it’s time to discuss what happened.

New England Patriots 2024 Preview
It wasn’t the type of finish to Belichick’s career that anyone would have expected. But last year was an absolutely clinic on how a defense minded coach/staff can self destruct. Mac Jones was never going to be a franchise quarterback, but he could have been a serviceable starter. There was just no development from this… Read more

Buffalo Bills 2024 Preview
There are very few teams that can maintain a high level of success year after year and still not manage a Super Bowl appearance. Eventually the salary cap or an impatient owner steps in and forces a rebuild. The Bills feel like they are dangerously close to a roster makeover. Losing Stefon Diggs wasn’t as… Read more
