Offseason In Review: Jacksonville Jaguars
Jacksonville was not a popular pick to contend for a playoff spot in 2025, head coach Liam Coen‘s first year at the helm. Vegas set the Jaguars’ preseason over/under win total at 7.5, but the club smashed expectations during a 13-4 campaign. The offensive-minded Coen was the runner-up to the


Brandon Aiyuk makes controversial decision about his career
San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk is continuing his standoff with the team.

NFL teams should consider paying pass-catching RBs instead of WRs
Boy, these wide receiver contracts are sure getting expensive. Earlier this offseason, Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba became the highest-paid player at his position when he signed a four-year, $168.6M extension.

Offseason In Review: Tennessee Titans
It is safe to say this is the worst period the Titans have experienced since relocating to Tennessee. The franchise’s Houston years produced a comparable three-year run in the early 1980s. The Oilers’ Warren Moon free agency addition helped pull them out of the NFL basement in the mid-’80s; the


Raiders’ Fernando Mendoza gets confidence boost amid Kirk Cousins competition

Criticisms of Brady’s relationships with Fox, Raiders resurface
Las Vegas Raiders minority owner Tom Brady generated headlines when he recently said that “it’s everybody’s fault” that the 2025 Raiders “underperformed in every area” en route to finishing the season with a record of 3-14. “And it starts with me,” Brady continued, “and it filters down to the rest of the players

Falcons second-year safety viewed as ready to make another leap
