NFL Free Agency Profile: OT Justin Skule, Buccaneers

Analyzing OT Justin Skule as a potential swing-tackle option for Cleveland

The Cleveland Browns are heading into the offseason with a few important goals, and one of them is to fix the offensive tackle situation that’s plagued the team for multiple seasons.

This year’s free agency class is surprisingly full of depth-level offensive linemen who could fit what the Browns are looking for.

One of the most intriguing prospects for the team based on both scheme and positional versatility is Justin Skule, who’s been a fairly valuable offensive tackle for San Francisco and Tampa Bay over the past five seasons....

NFL free agency: What will the Browns do about Nick Chubb with free agents, draft options galore?

The best running back the franchise has seen in years is a free agent

The Cleveland Browns are known for having exceptional running backs. It is one of the hallmarks of their storied franchise.

Jim Brown. Kevin Mack. Ernest Byner. Bo Scott. Greg Pruitt. Bobby Mitchell. Leroy Kelly, to name a few. Oh, and a guy named Marion Motley.

Add Nick Chubb to that list.

Ravens vs. Bills - NFL playoff prediction & open thread

The highest-profile matchup of the weekend featuring two MVP QBs.

The Divisional Round of the NFL playoffs concludes tonight with the Baltimore Ravens battling the Buffalo Bills in the highest-profile matchup of the weekend.

Baltimore has been such a dominant force over the past few months due to the rushing threat of Derrick Henry, not to mention Lamar Jackson's MVP level performance.

The Bills, meanwhile, have had MVP performances from Josh Allen for several seasons. Usually, it's the Chiefs who are in their way, and that's who they'd need to conquer again. But first, they need to get past Baltimore...

Rams vs Eagles - NFL playoff prediction & open thread

Are we in for a high-scoring affair and an upset?

The state of the NFC was thrown into disarray last night, as the top-seeded Lions were stunned by the Commanders. Now, it’ll be the Commanders taking on the winner of the Los Angeles Rams vs. Philadelphia Eagles game today. Who will advance to the NFC Championship game?

In the NFC, we’ve seen two teams with major letdowns in the Minnesota Vikings and the Lions, and the entire NFC North has been eliminated from the postseason. Philadelphia and Los Angeles both grabbed the bull by the horns last week and thrived...

NFL free agency: 6 of the top 10 QBs on the market make sense for the Browns

NFL free agency: 6 of the top 10 QBs on the market make sense for the Browns

Sam Darnold is the big name but bringing back Jacoby Brissett or Joe Flacco also makes sense

For NFL players, judging their talent often comes down to how they played in the final game of their season and, often, how their team played. Cleveland Browns fans are understandably down on their team despite DE Myles Garrett, among others including analysts, believing the team isn’t too far away.

With the Browns seemingly turning away from the Deshaun Watson era, quarterback has been the primary focus so far this offseason. Rumors of Kirk Cousins coming to Cleveland, talk of Shedeur Sanders being...

2024 MVP race: Myles Garrett gets ranked second among defenders, after Josh Allen vs Lamar Jackson decided

2024 MVP race: Myles Garrett gets ranked second among defenders, after Josh Allen vs Lamar Jackson decided

The first 11 players on ESPN’s MVP ranking are on offense, AFC North edge rushers break that streak

The Cleveland Browns had a terrible season in 2024 but there were some positives starting with DE Myles Garrett. WR Jerry Jeudy put his name among the team’s legendary history but it was Garrett who was consistently making plays all season despite dealing with many injuries.

Garrett also stirred the pot with comments late in the season about not wanting to rebuild but, following the season, seems locked back into his future with the Browns. A projected record-setting contract probably helps a...

NFL playoffs: Commanders going to the NFC Championship give hope to the Browns?

Having the number two overall pick changed the course of a franchise just one year ago

As a Cleveland Browns supporter, this season was one that we all would like to forget after going 3-14. The performance was so bad that the team now has the number two overall pick in the upcoming draft.

The team that had the second pick in last year’s draft was the Washington Commanders. Last year, the Commanders went 4-13 and had a total overhaul from new ownership to hiring a new GM and head coach.

In free agency, Washington took a unique approach by...

The NFL Playoffs roll along today with one game that might be entertaining in the Los Angeles Rams vs. the Philadelphia Eagles, and the marquee game of the weekend as the Buffalo Bills host the Baltimore Ravens.

That game features two quarterbacks who are at the top of the MVP discussion in Buffalo’s Josh Allen and Baltimore’s Lamar Jackson.

Both quarterbacks are worthy of being considered, but today’s game has bigger implications. The Bills will be looking to advance past the divisional round of...

The Lions begin their path to the Super Bowl.

The second matchup on Saturday features the Washington Commanders taking on the Detroit Lions.

This is a fresh matchup that we didn't see during the regular season. Washington was impressive all season, led hy rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels. He led yet another come-from-behind win last week over the Buccaneers in the most exciting first-round matchup.

Now, they face a whole different test in the top-seeded Detroit Lions. The Lions have been the most explosive and complete team in the NFL, and there's no reason to think they'll falter here. As much...

NFL free agency is months away but the NFL playoffs are rolling so a few free agents Browns fans should watch

The likely end to the Deshaun Watson era has allowed Cleveland Browns fans to reengage with the team they have had so much passion for. The 2024 season was a killer for that passion from Browns fans as they felt like there was no hope.

Now, with Tommy Rees taking over as offensive coordinator and Mike Bloomberg coming in to coach the offensive line, Cleveland feels like they’ve turned the corner back to HC Kevin Stefanski’s system. Having the...

Texans vs. Chiefs - NFL playoff prediction & open thread

The Chiefs were nearly perfect this season.

The Divisional Round of the NFL playoffs kicks off with the Houston Texans battling the Kansas City Chiefs. Aside from a loss this season to the Bills, the Chiefs were basically perfect this year (we aren't counting the final game, where they rested everyone and didn't care).

These two teams met during the regular season about a month ago, with the Chiefs prevailing 27-19. The game never got out of hand, but Kansas City was also firmly in control from start to finish, which is the way most KC games went this year....
