    Is Davante Adams really leaving Las Vegas?
    , ,

    It sure looks like it.* We may not ever know the behind the scenes reasons for this breakup, but from the reports it sounds like this is something that has been building between Adams and Head Coach Antonio Pierce. Did this have anything to do with the “business decisions” comment from Pierce after the week… Read more

    Tale of the Tape, Week 4
    ,

    The biggest trend I saw in this week’s games was not about the x’s and o’s of the game. It wasn’t a new strategy or formation. It was the absolute littering of the field with yellow flags. It was awful this week. Just ask Al Michaels who made his opinion well known on Thursday night… Read more

    Hits and Misses, Week 4
    ,

    Week four is almost over. We have two games on tonight, and my picks are a respectable 9-5 so far this week and 38-24 over the season. We won’t discuss how my fantasy team is doing. That might be a season long miss. But before we get into the rest of the hits and misses,… Read more

    Week three came and went and there was no Tale of the Tape to mark the occasion. If you read the Hits and Misses column, I mentioned there wouldn’t be this week, but I didn’t say why. Well, I was out of town Monday/Tuesday and I knew I wasn’t going to be able to review… Read more

    It’s a weird feeling watching the games live. You know I’m a fan of certain teams, but I’m also a fan of just plain old good football. If there’s two teams slugging it out and competing at a high level, I’m going to watch it no matter who the two teams are. And I like… Read more

    The NFL has come a long way in the past four or five years in terms of player safety. As fans we might complain about fouls being called that wouldn’t have been called ten or twenty years ago. We can be upset that the outcome of a game was decided because a sack was ruled… Read more

    Tale of the Tape, Week 2

    Upset weekend? Super Bowl favorites Baltimore, San Francisco, and Detroit all lost. Playoff hopefuls Dallas, Philadelphia, Miami and the LA Rams all lost. Who had Minnesota, Seattle, New Orleans and Washington as your NFC division leaders? It’s still early, but there are definitely some trends starting to show up. We’ll get into a few of… Read more

    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

    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. Sunday afternoon and Monday were… Read more

    Here we go! We’ve finally made it to the start of the 2024 NFL season. There’s a lot to cover before the kickoff in Kansas City on Thursday so let’s get started. This will be a weekly column on Gridiron Voice with several topics rolled up into one long-form article. I’m sure as the season… Read more
