The Bills firing Sean McDermott and promoting Brandon Beane feels like ego, not a plan, and it could waste Josh Allen’s prime. This isn’t some clean, confident “next step” for a contender. It looks like a front office power grab that blew up the chain of command and expected everyone to clap. Now Buffalo’s searching...

The Dolphins hiring Jeff Hafley is a bad bet, and the Titans hiring Robert Saleh is the same bad bet with a different logo. This is the NFL’s most predictable failure cycle: owners get seduced by “toughness” and “leadership,” hire a defensive mind to run the whole building, then act stunned when the offense stays...

Mike Tomlin steps down ending his 19 year run in Pittsburgh, but it also forces the Steelers to finally admit the truth: this thing needs a real reset. You can respect what Tomlin built and still believe this was the right time. I’m in that camp. Nineteen seasons, never a losing record, a Super Bowl...

The Ravens just fired John Harbaugh after 18 seasons. That is not a little move. That is not a “we’re unhappy with the play calling” move. That is Baltimore saying the current version of the Ravens was not good enough, and they are done pretending it will fix itself. Here is what I can’t get...

As I am sure you have heard, Stranger Things ended on New Years Eve. The finale was met with a wide range of opinions. Some people loved it, others hated it. I am of the opinion that the finale was mid. Really though the internet is trying to convince the world that tonight January 7th...

Why was the Netflix NFL broadcast so bad is not even a dramatic question; it’s literally what it felt like yelling at the TV while everybody’s trying to eat cookies and pretend the holidays are peaceful. The Cowboys beat the Commanders 30-23 on Christmas, and the game itself was fine. The coverage was the part...

I can already hear it. “A Steelers home playoff game is awesome.” “Be happy they won the North.” “Be happy they made the playoffs.” “Anything can happen in January.” Cool. I’m not doing that. If the Steelers host a playoff game, that’s nice. That’s progress. That’s better than traveling. That’s the kind of thing some...

Quick question. If you lose the wrong guy in December, are you still the “better team,” or are you just the next team getting shoveled into the same grave every season gets eventually? Because sometimes the NFL isn’t about who’s the best team. It’s about who gets lucky and avoids the injury bug. That’s it....

Like clockwork, it’s that time of year again where we have the seemingly age old debate: Should the Steelers fire Mike Tomlin? In years past I have always erred on the side of keeping Tomlin, maybe mainly to troll my yinzer friends but at the end of the day I thought he was still a...

This is about an era losing its supernatural powers in front of everyone. Chiefs vs Texans. For years, Chiefs fans talked like the league was a scripted show and Kansas City was the lead character. And honestly, they had receipts. Three Super Bowl parades. Multiple AFC title games at home. A divisional round comeback against...

At some point, every legend has “the game” where everyone silently looks around and goes, “Uh oh… I think it is time.” For Al Michaels, that might have been Cowboys vs Lions on Thursday Night Football. Late in the fourth quarter of Amazon’s Cowboys Lions broadcast, 81 year old Al Michaels got caught in a...
