Posted on August 17, 2018, by Travis Pulver There is a beauty to the NFL Preseason. It is hard to see sometimes, but it is there. The players we get to watch may not always be the best. The coaches may not be too concerned about winning or developing game plans. But the game that fans […]

Posted on August 17, 2018, by Travis Pulver Super Bowl rematches are always a lot of fun to watch; even during the preseason. Even if the game doesn’t matter and no one cares who wins, the team that lost the Super Bowl is going to be out for blood. In the back of their minds, they […]

Posted on August 17, 2018, by Travis Pulver Week Two of the preseason kicked off Thursday night with six teams seeing action including the Washington Redskins and New York Jets. Typically, in Week Two, fans will get to see a few more of their favorites. But only for a very limited amount of time. That was […]

Posted on August 12, 2018, by Travis Pulver Fans of the San Diego Chargers and Arizona Cardinals both have good reason to look forward to the2018 season. The Chargers showed appeared to be on the verge of becoming a playoff team last season. But they fell short once again. As for the Cardinals, there are promising […]

Posted on August 12, 2018, by Travis Pulver Fans were treated to one of the more interesting matchups—as far as preseason action goes—Saturday night with the Denver Broncos taking on the Minnesota Vikings. It was the first time Minnesota fans would get to see their new starting quarterback, Kirk Cousins, in action. Minnesota’s former starting QB, […]

Posted on August 10, 2018, by Travis Pulver Fans of the Indianapolis Colts and Seattle Seahawks know that the preseason doesn’t mean anything. But fans of both teams were likely pretty eager to see their squads take the field Thursday night. Andrew Luck was slated to play for the first time since 2016 (and did). Seahawks […]

Posted on August 10, 2018, by Travis Pulver Many NFL fans would say the preseason isn’t good for anything. The stars sit out, no one tries to win, and the games aren’t competitive. Those fans are not necessarily wrong. But they are missing out on the good that can come from preseason action—like seeing rookies in […]

Posted on August 5, 2018, by Travis Pulver Sports fans are accustomed to hearing promises from team owners. Fans of the Indianapolis Colts certainly heard quite a few last season. They were led to believe that their quarterback, Andrew Luck, was going to be ready to go Week One. The offensive line issues were supposed to […]

Posted on August 3, 2018, by Travis Pulver The wait is over. As of Thursday night, when the Chicago Bears and Baltimore Ravens opened the preseason with the Hall of Fame Game, the NFL is back! Like most preseason action, it was not a good football game. It was barely entertaining. But it was football. To […]

Posted on July 30, 2018, by Travis Pulver Even before Baker Mayfield was named the Heisman Trophy winner last year, people began to speculate as to who would win it in 2018. There was certainly a plethora of worthy candidates from Bryce Love to Jonathan Taylor and JK Dobbins, to name a few. But how do […]

Posted on July 30, 2018, by Travis Pulver It’s good that the NFL is trying to make the game safer, but some would say that their efforts are bordering on over-legislation. One of the latest changes is causing so much worry that it’s keeping one guy out of camp—Chicago Bears linebacker Roquan Smith. To be fair, […]

Posted on July 29, 2018, by Travis Pulver Athletes are known for being a prideful bunch. They tend to think highly of themselves and their teammates. They tend to believe they are the best even when they have been the worst. Usually, they are wrong. But from time to time they end up being right. Will […]

Posted on July 24, 2018, by Travis Pulver Most NFL fans remember that playoff game between the Green Bay Packers and Dallas Cowboys back in 2014 for the infamous non-catch by Dez Bryant that the current rules would now call a catch. But there was something else telling about the game that made “the catch” necessary […]

Posted on July 23, 2018, by Travis Pulver Fans of the former Heisman Trophy winner were glad to see him get back into the game when he signed with the Hamilton Tiger-Cats. It didn’t matter that it was the CFL and not the NFL—he would be playing football again and that was what mattered most. But […]

Posted on July 23, 2018, by Travis Pulver As NFL players prepare to report to training camp (if they already haven’t), fans and the media don’t have much to talk about. With no news of note to discuss, fans and the media are left with speculation to fill the void. You know, things like who’s going […]
