Tomorrow night, I will be travelling to New York City, and this will be my first time not only visiting the Big Apple, but it will also be my first time travelling solo. I’ll likely have a post later on in the week when I come back about my experience and how it went. But before I leave tomorrow, I want to relate this to my passion, which is sports. And New York is obviously a pretty unique sports market, as it has multiple teams in multiple leagues. Because of that, I wanted
This week is the NFL Draft Combine, and this is usually where business gets done for the first portion of the offseason. Whether that be agents talking to general managers about potential contracts or teams talking with one another about the framework of trades that could get finalized before the start of the new league year. With some big names potentially on the move this offseason, whether that be via free agency or the trade market, I want to give some of my dream landing
After 11 long years, the Seattle Seahawks have finally avenged their Super Bowl XLIX loss to the New England Patriots and for the first time since the 2013 NFL season, the Seahawks have taken their rightful place atop the NFL as Super Bowl champions, beating the Patriots 29–13 in Super Bowl LX. And honestly, I don’t even think that score tells you how dominant this game truly was. This was a complete domination by the Seahawks, specifically on defense. Now, I will give Mike V
As Super Bowl LX between the New England Patriots and Seattle Seahawks approaches this weekend, I thought it would be a great time to look back at the Super Bowls we’ve had during "the 50s era". With that in mind, I wanted to share my thoughts and rank the last ten years of Super Bowls. You may not agree with me, but it’s my list, and it reflects what I’ve enjoyed over the past decade of the biggest game in American sports. 10: Super Bowl 50 (2016) – Broncos def. Panthers, 24
As Super Bowl Sunday gets closer and closer, I thought it would be a great time to take a step back and analyze both the rosters of the Seattle Seahawks and New England Patriots and see how both teams' best players stack up against one another. These players had the most impact in leading their clubs to the biggest stage in football, and everyone on this list will be relied upon if their team looks to be the last one left standing. 15: Kenneth Walker III, Seattle Seahawks, R
Last year at this time, Sam Darnold was finishing his 2024 NFL season with the Minnesota Vikings. That season started like it was the beginning of the revitalization of his career after several disappointing stops across the NFL. For a few months, it seemed like the former third overall pick had finally found a long-term home. However, that optimism faded quickly. After two poor performances at the end of the season in the team's most important games, including a Week 18 game

Yes, they’re coming off a pretty embarrassing loss t
Throughout the NFL season, critics told A.J. Brown to “be quiet,” insisting he had no reason to speak out because the Philadelphia Eagles were winning games and loaded with talent. But as the year has unfolded, it’s becoming clear that Brown was sounding the alarm before anyone else. The Philadelphia Eagles are, quite frankly, a mess right now. Their latest loss came against the Los Angeles Chargers, a good football team, but one ravaged by injuries. The Chargers entered the

Joe Burrow returned to the field on Thanksgiving night for the Cincinnati Bengals after missing every game since Week 2 with a turf toe injury and despite the long layoff, he looked sharp in the second half, leading Cincinnati to an upset win over their AFC North rival Baltimore Ravens. His performance didn’t just bring excitement to the NFL happy to see Burrow back out on the field, but it made me think of a “what if” scenario that Bengals fans themselves might be thinking a

I’d like to say I’m surprised, but I tried to warn everyone before the 2025 NFL season kicked off: I said Drake Maye would emerge as the best quarterback of his draft class and the New England Patriots were going to be a playoff team. Yes, that same class featured Caleb Williams, the No. 1 pick, and Jayden Daniels, who reached the NFC Championship Game in his first season. None of that mattered to me. I said from the beginning that Maye was going to be the quarterback who wou

There have been plenty of surprises this NFL season, with unexpected teams coming out of nowhere to be possible Super Bowl contenders, and two of those are the Seattle Seahawks and the New England Patriots. And while I did think both of these teams going into the year would be playoff teams, I did not think I would realistically be discussing both teams potentially being Super Bowl bound this year, and yes, I do think we need this matchup in Super Bowl LX this February. And w
