It seems that most of his losses came to teams who got hot at the right time. 1987 Vikings, 1991 Falcons, 1999 Titans. He reminds me a lot of Marty Schottenheimer, a guy who couldn't win the big one, yet was a fantastic coach. And both of them became punchlines for my generation, "Marty Ball&qu...

This whole Aaron Rodgers vs. John Elway debate broke out on social media thanks to talking heads on ESPN making it a thing. All the Packers fans are posting raw stats, while Elway fans point to the 5 Super Bowl appearances. I'm on the Elway side. You can't compare eras with stats. Elway was unlike a...

I'm not sold on any of the QBs picked in the first two days; as a Penn State fan, I've seen enough of Drew Allar to figure he's not going to be the answer in Pittsburgh. I think Simpson was taken too early, and Mendoza was in a perfect situation in college which he won't be in Las Vegas. But who kno...
