One of the biggest needs that the Baltimore Orioles had entering the offseason was to upgrade their pitching staff.

The Cleveland Browns have a whole lot to figure out this offseason, and their biggest concern is certainly what to do at quarterback.

The 49ers offense is old and slow. All the top receivers on the team struggle to create separation on their own, which is a big reason why Brock Purdy’s passer rating versus man-to-man coverage this season was a mere 61.5. He had to throw more passes than usual into tight windows, and he doesn’t have…
After his second season in 2023, it’s safe to say the Detroit Lions didn’t know what to fully make of Jameson Williams.

If the Las Vegas Raiders get a chance to speak to Tampa Bay Buccaneers offensive coordinator Liam Coen, both sides will know quickly if it is the best fit. The Raiders or any other NFL teams looking for a head coach cannot interview Coen until three days after the Bucs’ wild-card game via virtual interview,…
Every now and then you get teams that make some very head-scratching moves, and the Las Vegas Raiders have certainly had their fair share. Now, the firing of Antonio Pierce was not a head-scratcher, in many ways, that is a move that should have been done, and it was done for the right reasons. Pierce, who finished…
