The XFL Award Goes To…
I’d like to thank the league for… The XFL came to an end yesterday as it capped off a 10-week season that featured many great players, veteran and rookie coaches, and fan bases that stood by their teams through the thick and thin. With it’s conclusion we were also introduced to a bunch of modernized rules that should be adapted by the NFL this upcoming season. To the leagues players, personnel and fans we made history. Congratulations to the XFL players for playing their hardest and chasing their dreams with the opportunity provided to them by the XFL. I’m not sure what today holds for the players heading back to…
Ultimate XFL South Division Championship Preview
This weekend is the penultimate week in the XFL's to play and we begin our preview with the South Division semi-final game. The Arlington Renegades play the Houston Roughnecks, which is a rematch of the final regular season game. Houston defeated Arlington 25-9, but the playoff matchup seems to be heading toward a competitive matchup. The winner of this game will play the DC Defenders or Seattle Sea Dragons in San Antonio for the XFL Championship.
Grading the Entire XFL 3.0 After 8 Weeks
It’s been confirmed by Dwayne Johnson and Danny Garcia, the XFL will return for another season in 2024. It was obvious considering early on into this process of new ownership that Redbird capital had promised undisclosed backing for the league along with a 5-year exclusive rights deal to Disney and it’s subsidiaries who would display the games. But it’s big news nonetheless as we have reiteration of confirmation that the XFL is here to stay for the long haul. The XFL has certainly done it’s job to make the game attractive and they’ve scored very well in regards to certain things they’ve done with the league and scored disastrously on…
Taylor Heinicke is a Godsend Cinderella Story the NFL & XFL need to happen!
Washington Commanders Buried Taylor Heinicke Is Heinicke the starting quarterback for the 2023 season? My NFL GRIPE XFL First and foremost I want to congratulate Taylor Heinicke on signing a two year deal with the Atlanta Falcons for up to $20 million! Washington Commanders Buried Taylor Heinicke Washington made a mistake by not keeping this man. He should have been their starting quarterback for the past 2 years, but for some reason he never got the respect he deserved from the Washington Commanders. I say that because there’s no way in hell anyone with subpar vision would ever think that Carson Wentz was ever any good as a quarterback, much…
Why the New XFL 3.0 Will Thrive!
The XFL is BACK! It’s been 1,044 days since the XFL shut down due to a global pandemic. It’s been a long 3 years and it almost doesn’t feel real to be hours away from kickoff. I’ve always been a fan of more football especially when there isn’t any on, and advocated for spring leagues for years. I was a fan of the XFL the first time around because of what it could represent, something innovative, something fresh, something different while executing great play on the field, but the product didn’t have any good quality to match that promise. In recent years I’ve been a fan of both iterations of…
Ron Rivera Should Be Fired!
Ron Rivera will be addressed in just a second, but first allow me to premise this article with full disclosure, I’m a Kansas City Chiefs fan, born and raised, but I’ve been a Washington football fan for some time. Ron Rivera Rivera cost the Washington Commanders it’s football season. I’m not sure how or why any organization believes Carson Wentz is still a good quarterback, he just isn’t it. For several years now the Commanders have had their quarterback on their roster and have ignored him, that quarterback is Taylor Heinicke. Heinicke has consistently played well with the exception of a few bad throws but none egregiously bad as many…
The Kansas Jayhawks are the Best Story in College Football
The Kansas Jayhawks have been the laughing stock of college football the last 12 years. They were definitively the worst Power 5 college program in the country. In year two of Lance Leipold, the Jayhawks are one win away from becoming bowl eligible. Kansas Jayhawks Football The Jayhawks are currently 5-1, coming off a home loss to TCU. Their star QB Jalon Daniels went down with an injury, so why are the Jayhawks still the best story in college football. KU represents the hopes and dreams for every school that is not a traditional power. Non-power schools will have good years and bad years, some will have extended time in…
The Number 1 Problem with Russell Wilson
So, what’s wrong with Russell Wilson? The answer may be in what led the Seattle Seahawks to trade their former franchise Quarterback. Wilson was an MVP candidate in the first half of the 2020 season and he threw a career high 40 touchdowns. The Seahawks season ended in disappointment with Russell Wilson struggling the second half of the season, ending in a home playoff loss to an injured Los Angeles Rams team. Part of the issue with the Seahawks is that Russell Wilson and the Seattle coaching staff became frustrated with each other. Wilson’s ability to extend and generate big plays rivaled every other quarterback in the NFL. Russell Wilson…
3 NFL Head Coaches That Could Be Fired
The NFL season has just began, but it’s never to early to speculate on which Head Coach may get fired during this season. MATT RHULE – CAROLINA PANTHERS Matt Rhule was hired to replace Ron Rivera in 2020. Rhule had a challenging start to his NFL coaching career, which began during the 2020 COVID season. Carolina’s first move under Rhule was to sign veteran Quarterback Teddy Bridgewater. Bridgewater only lasted one season with the Panthers before being traded. Sam Darnold and Baker Mayfield were acquired via trade, but neither has looked effective under Rhule. Carolina has had five different starting Quarterbacks since Matt Rhule became coach of the Carolina Panthers.…
Previewing The 2022 Kansas City Chiefs Road to the Super Bowl
If you weren’t paying attention to the Kansas City Chiefs this off-season, they said goodbye to Tyrann Mathieu, Charvarius Ward, and a group of veteran offensive players. 2021 ended in disappointment as the Kansas City Chiefs blew a 21-3 lead in the AFC Championship game to the Cincinnati Bengals. In 2021, Mahomes and the offense had to completely change their game-plan, it didn’t click like it should have in the biggest moments, at least in the latter half of that specific AFC Championship game. The Road to the Super Bowl… Chiefs OFFENSE Patrick Mahomes enters the 2022 season looking for redemption, especially after a rough second half in the AFC…
