Thank You David Johnson

The NFL is sadly predictable when it comes to critical acclaim. Far too often, players are recognised because of their reputation or persona rather than just their on-field performances. Marquee names such as JJ Watt and Odell Beckham Jr obviously deserve praise. After all, they’re great players. The issue is...

Week 11

It’s a full house this week as we run through our Week 11 picks. Will the Browns make the cut this week?

Coaches Caught In Traffic

It’s already got to the time of year when we start to look at next year, particularly because a few teams have very little to look forward to. So, as we start on the road to next season we look at which coaches are likely to get stuck in traffic...

Best Bets: Week 11

Well that was disappointing, a 2-1 week to actually win for just the third time this year. Regular readers will know that I just don’t do winning. Apologies to those that just use this to pick against. I’ll try to get back on track this week with the 0-3s. I...

Analysing the MVP candidates

As we arrive upon Week 11, this season’s MVP candidates are now coming into full view, so it’s a good time to take a deeper look at some of the favourites for the award to see if they’re truly indispensable, or simply elevated by players around them and generous media coverage.

Why aren’t there enough good Quarterbacks?

It’s the most important position on the football field and the most desirable for players, but a sought-after “franchise quarterback” remains missing for several NFL teams. The LA Rams made an audacious move for their own starting QB in the draft, giving up a bundle of picks to take Cal’s...

Taking a Punt

Dan’s general distain for the only people who use their feet in the game of football is widely known, and let’s face it it’s a facet of the game that sometimes even TV skips or ignores. So, when Chris Jones ran for a first down and more in the 3rd...

Mid-season Reality Checks: Part I

So, we are halfway through the season and we have teams already beginning to show us exactly who they are. All of the off-season hyperbole and excitement has finally been tempered by the reality of a league where half of the teams in the league are either, (a) just as...
