To what - not sure. NFL channel just released  Andrew Siciliano, Melissa Stark,  James Palmer, and Will Selva. Good Morning Football is on a mysterious hiatus as it moves to LA from NY. Has  to be about a merger/acquisition between ESPN and NFL Media. They talked about that back in January. That's some good on-air talent ..read more

Do you guys think it's possible that the first 4 picks jn this years draft could be QBs? I certainly think it's possible. The first 3 teams, Chicago,Washington and New England definitely need QBs and it should go Williams, Daniel's and Maye in all probability. Which brings us to pick #4 for Arizona. The Vikings have 2 first round picks and pretty certain Darnold is not their future so they could use the 2 picks to move up to #4 and draft QB JJ McCarthy. I think this scenario is a real possibility. Then at pick #5 the Chargers would be in the cat bird seat and take the best WR in this class, Ma ..read more

Kickoff formations have now greatly changed to be similar to the XFL rule the last couple years. Kicks still fron the 35 yard line, but only the kicker is allowed there - the rest of the kicking team must line up on the opponents 40 yard line.  The receiving team may have 1 or 2 returners behind their own 35byard line - the rest of the return team must line up on their own 35 yard line.  No one except the kicker and the 1-2 returners may move until the ball reaches the returner or hits the ground. The kick balled must hit a specified receiving zone or the ball will be placed on a spe ..read more

15 yard penalty and automatic first down. Will that still stop it? I can't count how many injuries that it causes and not like out for a week injuries. I'm glad they are doing something about it. I'm fine with how physical the game is, and that's a way to stop a runner, but it's just evolved into a common way to tackle that knocks the opponent out for a few weeks or even months ..read more

Friendly heads up to those using MFL that they're using an extra early deadline in April again like they did back in 22'.  Course they're raising prices again so... Quote The price of a league is increasing this season, but you can beat the price increase by purchasing your league early. The price of a regular league will increase by $10 next month. Note that the early bird discounts are still available, so you can save $10 if you purchase by August 1, and save $20 if you purchase by June 10th. Best of all, you can save $30 right now and lock in last year's pricing if you purchase your ..read more

One-year deal with incentives that could potentially go up to $15 mill.  Jets finally have a large bodied split-end.  I think the last solid X receiver we had was Braylon Edwards.  Before that was Brandon Marshall and Keyshawn Johnson, over 25 yrs ago.  But it was neither the financials nor the QB that convinced Mike to not leave the building.  It was the sandwich.   ..read more

Just read it as Breaking News on ESPN feed.  Didn't they just get Russell Wilson?!? https://sports.yahoo.com/bears-reportedly-trade-justin-fields-to-steelers-clearing-the-way-for-likely-no-1-pick-qb-caleb-williams-224130172.html   That article states that Fields would be the backup to Wilson for the year and could step in if Wilson struggles.   WOW ..read more
