Finally, Aaron Rodgers has joined the Pittsburgh Steelers. That solves their quarterback issue this year, but their roster still isn’t perfect. Specifically, the Steelers could use another playmaker on offenses. They’ve reportedly made some trade inquiries about several players. Some analysts have wondered if New York Jets wide receiver Allen Lazard could be a possible […]

In Raheem Morris’s first year as head coach, the Atlanta Falcons finished the season 8-9. It was good enough to be in second place in the NFC South division, but not good enough to make the playoffs. However, the division did not seem to get much stronger this offseason, so it is still up for grabs. With that in mind, the Falcons are hoping to make it back to the playoffs after a seven-year hiatus.

Atlanta went into this offseason with the hopes of improving on the defensive end of the ball. They have the skill players to compete, but...

Former Steelers offensive tackle Max Starks gives quarterback Aaron Rodgers some advice for his next year in Pittsburgh.

There have been a lot of mixed emotions since the Pittsburgh Steelers officially agreed to terms with quarterback Aaron Rodgers on Thursday. Former Steelers offensive tackle Max Starks believes there is one thing Rodgers can do to start off on the right foot in Pittsburgh, though.

“I think the biggest thing is ingratiate yourself with the fans, with the city,” Starks said on SiriusXM NFL Radio. “Don’t try and separate yourself or silo yourself because this city is woven into the fabric...

Buccaneers

Buccaneers HC Todd Bowles is impressed with how quickly LB Anthony Walker Jr. is picking up the defense.

“[He is] very intelligent from a communication standpoint, which we thought he was when we got him. He really fit right in once he came here – I feel like he’s been here the whole time. He’s got a good grasp of the scheme and an understanding of what to do. Him and ‘Voss’ (SirVocea Dennis) are really hitting it off,” Bowles said, via the team’s website.

Broncos head coach Sean Payton told reporters that his vision for corner Jahdae Barron is to play inside and outside at corner.

When the Broncos surprisingly selected Texas cornerback Jahdae Barron in the first round of April’s 2025 NFL Draft, the question was, where would he fit in the Broncos' secondary? Many assumed he would slide into the slot position due to his size, but Broncos Head Coach Sean Payton believes Barron can be more than a slot corner.

Payton met with the media after Thursday’s practice and was asked about how Barron has picked up playing inside and outside...

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are ready to dominate the NFC South once again during the 2025 NFL season. Tampa has controlled the NFC South for several seasons in a row, both under Tom Brady and now Baker Mayfield. Unfortunately, it did not lead them to much postseason success in 2024.

The Buccaneers have done everything in their power to get better this offseason. They re-signed Chris Godwin on a three-year, $66 million extension that should keep the offense as dangerous as ever. Tampa also made a risky move by adding edge rusher Haason Reddick, [who flamed out in New York...

With Aaron Rodgers, the Pittsburgh Steelers have their best quarterback situation since before Ben Roethlisberger’s injury in 2019. It’s far from perfect, but that counts for something, and the team has still remained competitive up until the playoffs almost every season. One of the best quarterbacks of all time has to be worth a playoff […]

We’re counting down to the season opener (Day 90) with some Cowboys history

We’re counting down the days until the Dallas Cowboys battle the Philadelphia Eagles *in the season opener of the 2025 NFL season. To pass the time and mark the days, we asked some of our writers to rank their top-100 players in Cowboys history using no particular criteria, and put the results together into one list. The further away you get from the top 20 or so, the more varied the opinions. Sometimes it is about more than just stats. Things like fame level, length of career...

There was speculation that Mac Jones was a favorite to land with the San Francisco 49ers in the 2021 NFL Draft, but instead, head coach Kyle Shanahan opted to trade up and take Trey Lance with the third overall pick.

That allowed Mac Jones to fall to the New England Patriots, who held the 15th overall pick.

While Jones had a strong rookie season, leading the Patriots to the playoffs and earning Pro Bowl honors, his career took a serious decline in the two years that followed. New England ultimately traded the former Alabama quarterback to the Jacksonville Jaguars, where...

Longtime coach Chuck Pagano returned to the Ravens as a senior defensive assistant this year, but he has no ambition to take another head coaching job in the NFL.

Pagano’s success as a secondary coach and defensive coordinator during his first stint in Baltimore helped him line up a promotion to head coach with the Colts in 2012. He missed a large chunk of his first season in Indianapolis while undergoing treatment for leukemia, but the team still went 33-15 with three playoff berths across Pagano’s first three years in charge.

The 64-year-old said (via a team transcript) on Thursday...
