Happy football everyone! With the Hall of Fame Game last week in Canton, Ohio, the preseason has now officially begun. Now we're in that sweet spot where we still have some summer weather to enjoy and actual football (of sorts) to watch. It has been a really fun talking season though. The franchise quarterback contract arms race has never been more intense. Records are broken … [Read more...] about 30 of 32 NFL Teams Set to Hold Joint Practices This Preseason

Jets are Geno Smith’s team; for better or worse
The New York Jets lackluster play is more frustrating than normal because this team has shown that they have talent. Behind all of the penalties, turnovers, and play calls that will make your head spin is a team that has managed to keep every game close. This is a team that was actually beating up on the Green Bay Packers 21-3 at one point. … [Read more...] about Jets are Geno Smith’s team; for better or worse
Olivia Munn doesn’t play defense for Green Bay’s opponent each week
Ever since Aaron Rodgers took over for Brett Favre as the Packers’ starting quarterback in 2008, Green Bay has been one of the most successful franchises in the NFL—if not the most successful.

NY Jets should effectively rush Aaron Rodgers
This NY Jets defense contains arguably Rex Ryan’s best pass rush since he came to New York in 2009. Through the years, he’s been able to call defensive gems against the likes of Peyton Manning and Tom Brady. He did so against Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers back in 2010, but the offense faltered and the Jets were shutout 9-0. Rodgers went just 15 of 34 for 74 yards … [Read more...] about NY Jets should effectively rush Aaron Rodgers

It’s almost unfair because he’s far too quick for linebackers and far too powerful for defensive backs. Yet, he has been plagued with injuries throughout his career. You would think that … [Read more...] about Packers TE Jermichael Finley: what does the future hold?

Well, so much for the retooled Green Bay Packers offensive line. With one twist of a knee, a massive monkey wrench was thrown into Mike McCarthy’s master plan to protect franchise quarterback Aaron Rodgers. Barring the acquisition of a street free agent - none of which inspire much confidence anyway - let’s look at the Packers’ best options currently on the roster: … [Read more...] about Green Bay Packers: Ranking Bryan Bulaga’s replacements
