Do football fans play in Turkey Bowls on Thanksgiving anymore?

“I wonder if they had any mud bowls this year.” That was something my mom wondered about on Thursday night when we were hanging out at her house on Thanksgiving. She was obviously referring to a Turkey Bowl, the annual Thanksgiving tradition of football fans gathering on some field or in some backyard and engaging… read more

Around the NFC East: Week 11

It was a night of revenge for the Philadelphia Eagles when they knocked off the Kansas City Chiefs 21-17 on Monday Night Football. Jalen Hurts, who clearly is not  100% healthy, had a solid game throwing for 150 yards and rushing for two touchdowns. D’Andre Swift added 107 all-purpose yards and a touchdown in the… read more

Around the NFC East: Week 10

Things have fully gone off the rails for the New York Giants. At this point, the best thing they can hope for from the 2023 season is to land the first pick in the 2024 NFL Draft. Then they will have to decide if they are going to take a quarterback with that pick. As… read more

Why the 49ers Browns Point Spread has exploded to 9.5 points

Is Deshaun Watson really worth -6 points? Or are bettors being swept away by early season success against teams such as Dallas that may not be as strong as we thought.

I don’t know if it’s because I’m 51 and just nostalgic about my youth, but I’m suddenly starting to find great comfort in reliving people and stuff from days gone by.

Maybe the Dallas Cowboys are finally for real

Maybe the Dallas Cowboys 2023 highlight film should be titled, “The Monster That Ate New York.” Actually, that may only be appropriate if Dallas goes on to have a rather mediocre campaign after opening up against the Big Apple’s two NFL representatives and slicing and dicing them by a combined score of 70-10. The Cowboys… read more

People were very critical of the huge contract the Giants gave quarterback Daniel Jones this offseason. Jones did not do anything to silence that criticism against Dallas. He completed just 15 of 28 passes… read more

There was no real “winner” in the Trey Lance trade

This past offseason, the San Francisco 49ers’ quarterback situation was quite the roller coaster. Brock Purdy, Mr. Irrelevant from the 2022 NFL Draft who got the 49ers to the NFC Championship game, was coming off elbow surgery, the team signed Sam Darnold in free agency, and former 3rd overall draft pick Trey Lance was coming… read more
