Now that the 2024 Bills schedule is out, is there a game you’re most looking forward to?

Welcome back to our weekend chat, Buffalo Bills fans.

Maybe you are a huge fan of a crisp fall afternoon game for the great weather or a Thursday night game so you have an entire weekend to go golfing. Perhaps you’re a big fan of road trips to warm climates in the coldest months of Western New York or you love the electricity of a home primetime slot.

The 2024 Buffalo Bills schedule is out and you’ve been discussing it, but I want...

Pro Football Focus analyst Trevor Sikkema graded the offseasons of all 32 NFL franchises. The grades ranged from an A-plus (Detroit Lions) to a C-minus (Atlanta Falcons). The New England Patriots landed somewhere in the middle. Sikkema gave New England a B-minus for their offseason moves. He noted moving on from Bill Belichick and drafting Drake Maye as both being “the right move.”

On The PFF NFL Podcast with Steve & Sam, Sikkema’s PFF co-workers Steve Palazzolo and Sam Monson broke down his grades for each team. After initially stating that “the biggest move of the offseason is getting their...

Taking a look at the Jets’ 2024 third round pick

With the 2024 NFL draft behind us, we’re taking an in-depth look at each of the Jets’ draft picks, in reverse order. We continue today with former Western Kentucky wide receiver Malachi Corley, who was selected by the Jets with the first pick of the third round.

The 22-year old Corley is listed at 5’11” and 215 pounds and was a two-time all-Conference USA first team selection. He caught over 100 passes for almost 1,300 yards in 2022 and fell just short of another thousand-yard season in 2023.

Our offseason countdown continues with the fifth-worst Patriots moment of 2023.

I’m usually all about Top 5 lists of anything.

However, for some ridiculous reason, I thought it would be a good idea to relive some of the worst New England Patriots moments of 2023. I honestly don’t know what I was thinking. It really did seem like it would be fun, and maybe even therapeutic, back in February. Now here I find myself, staring down the barrel of the absolute travesties of Patriots football, and forced to write about them all as we all ease into summer. I must...

The latest edition of our Patriots mailbag answers questions about running backs, rookie impacts, and more.

The New England Patriots offseason rolls on at Phase 3 of the program begins on Monday. That brings the start of OTAs, where teams can begin 7 on 7, 9 on 7 and 11 on 11 drills with no live contact.

So, before we see New England’s rookie and veterans on the field together for the first time, let’s get into this week’s #PostPulpit mailbag.

***Do you see Antonio Gibson playing a meaningful role as a third-down back this season? If Stevenson goes down...

Miami Dolphins Pro Bowl quarterback Tua Tagovailoa is entering the final year on his rookie contract.

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa reported to the team’s training facility when the team began their offseason training program in April. According to a report from CBS Sports’ Jonathan Jones, that may be about the extent of what Tagovailoa, coming off his first Pro Bowl selection, has done this offseason. “Tagovailoa has been absent for the large majority of voluntary offseason work since the Dolphins reported back April 15,” Jones wrote Friday morning.

Tagovailoa has been a full participant in the offseason training program...

While Hyde may still be undecided about his playing future, he knows it can happen only with the Buffalo Bills

The Buffalo Bills entered the offseason at a crossroads, faced with making key decisions and difficult choices about some of the team’s best veteran players. Men who had been successful leaders were staring at a future that didn’t necessarily include playing for the Bills. Such was the case with Micah Hyde, whose contract the team allowed to void this past February.

At the end of the day the NFL is a business. Unlike 2022, Hyde wasn’t given a contract extension....

The Dolphins will spend a lot of time in the air next season.

The official 2024 NFL schedule has finally released, and the Miami Dolphins will have their work cut out for them this season, both on the field and in the air.

What I mean is, is that the Dolphins will travel the 2nd-most miles of any NFL team in 2024, behind only the Los Angeles Chargers.

Being on the coast, it’s to be expected that the Dolphins will fly many miles each season. Of course, having three divisional opponents who play on the opposite end of the country...

Bringing your daily links to the NFL’s New York Jets

Good morning, Gang Green Nation. I hope you’re all having a great start to the day. The New York Jets first home game will likely be one that many fans won’t enjoy, considering it begins on Thursday Night Football in Week 3. However, it’s also against the New England Patriots, who will be without Tom Brady and Bill Belichick for the first time in over two decades. Instead, it will be former Patriots linebacker Jerod Mayo and potentially rookie quarterback Drake Maye who will face the Jets, giving Gang Green...

Thornton hopes to play at 190 pounds this season.

Tyquan Thornton’s first two NFL seasons began in nearly identical ways. Unfortunately, it was not the positive way, as he started each year on the injured reserve after suffering injuries in August.

As a rookie, that came in the New England Patriots preseason opener where Thornton broke his collarbone when tackled. Last season, a diving catch in a joint practice session led to a shoulder injury.

Entering year three, Thornton has taken what he believes is the necessary measures to avoid another similar issue.

“I’ve been putting in work. I feel...

Welcome to the Splash Zone, the quickest way to get your day started off right. We bring you a rundown of Miami Dolphins news from the last 24 hours.

Like last season, the NFL decided to make the last part of the Miami Dolphins schedule pretty tough. In week 16, the San Francisco 49ers will be paying the Dolphins a visit and it will be another rematch for Mike McDaniel as he takes on his old friend/mentor, Kyle Shanahan. The NFL gave the Dolphins a Thanksgiving game, but the Dolphins won’t be thanking the league as the team has to...
