Lamar Jackson‘s No. 8 jersey might be history if the Baltimore Ravens end up hoisting the Lombardi Trophy next month. Jackson made a recent appearance on The Ravens Lounge podcast and said he wants to change his jersey number to No. 1 if he and the Ravens win the Super Bowl. “If we win the Super Bowl I’m going…
Jalen Hurts went No. 53 overall in the second round of the 2020 NFL draft. In that same draft, Jordan Love was the last quarterback taken in the first round at No. 26 overall, behind Joe Burrow (No. 1), Tua Tagovailoa (No. 5) and Justin Herbert (No. 6). Hurts and Love were surprise selections…
San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan said he would announce Klay Kubiak as the team’s offensive coordinator earlier this week. However, according to CBS Sports’ Jonathan Jones, NFL rules do not allow such an announcement. The 49ers must conduct an open search and interview process for the position. After a search, the franchise could then…
Robert Kraft made the decision to move on from head coach Jerod Mayo immediately after New England’s final regular season game, ending his tenure after just a single season. It was a decision Patriots fans overwhelmingly agree with. Eighty-nine percent of voters said that firing Mayo was the right decision. Moving on from Mayo caused a 30-point…
The Las Vegas Raiders have taken a liking to Detroit Lions offensive coordinator Ben Johnson. Perhaps the feeling is mutual — limited owner Tom Brady. Raiders and Johnson met virtually Friday to discuss the head-coaching position, and NFL Network insider Ian Rapoport reported Saturday that Johnson “quickly emerged as the candidate to watch for Las Vegas.” “He…
Without a playoff berth this year, the Dallas Cowboys are already in offseason mode. Currently, they’re still trying to figure things out with Mike McCarthy — which is taking much longer than expected. Once they get their head coach under contract, whether it’s McCarthy or someone else, they have to turn their attention to the roster. There are several areas of…
Pittsburgh Steelers Head Coach Mike Tomlin is known around the NFL as one of the best coaches in the league. The issue is that he hasn’t won a playoff game since the 2016 NFL season. That’s a long time to go without postseason success, especially for a franchise with the Steelers’ storied history. While Tomlin’s…
The biggest Bears problem on offense is one GM Ryan Poles didn’t seem to want to admit to, mainly because it’s his supposed area of great expertise and also because he put it all together. This is, of course, the offensive line. When your quarterback is sacked 68 times the blame should go to the…
The Pittsburgh Steelers limped into the playoffs this season using two quarterbacks that no other NFL teams wanted. Next season could they change the face of their organization to a quarterback that everyone used to desire? The reeling Steelers – losers of four straight – will count heavily on Russell Wilson and maybe lightly on…
Former Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Simi Fehoko is back and ready for the playoffs. Ahead of the Los Angeles Chargers Wild Card matchup with the Houston Texans, the team announced they have actived the wideout off of Injured Reserve, expecting him to play in their first postseason showdown.

Among the many things the Carolina Panthers need to upgrade this offseason is their edge rush unit. At the moment they have a respectable starting combo in Jadeveon Clowney and DJ Wonnum. However, neither one of them will be under contract after the 2025 NFL season and the rest of the depth chart beneath them is lacking. For the…
For two years, I have been trying to get comfortable and confident in head coach Jonathan Gannon. When the Cardinals rolled off their four-game winning streak —- with the defense suddenly dialing up successful blitz packages and becoming stingy in pass coverage —- and with Kyler Murray playing his best football since the first 7…
