All-Pro center Jason Kelce (brother of Travis) retires after 13 seasons with Eagles
No wonder Jason Kelce looked impossibly forlorn sitting on a bench behind the Philadelphia Eagles’ sideline as the final minutes ticked away in a 32-9 wild-card playoff loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Monday night. Not only was the Eagles’ once-promising season coming to a tortuous though predictable end, but Kelce knew this would be his last NFL game. …

When it comes to my picks for the wild-card round, I didn’t have a great week, but I also didn’t choke as hard as the Cowboys did, so I’m not going to get too down on myself. I went 3-3 straight-up, which wasn’t ideal, but I slightly canceled that out by going 4-2 against the spread. I was clearly overthinking …

Read More »If Arthur Blank wants Bill Belichick, he might have to move quickly
During the season, we explored in very unscientific fashion on social media the question of whether football fans wanted their favorite team to hire Bill Belichick, if their favorite team were looking for a coach. The answer, overwhelmingly, was no. Now that Belichick is available and seven (and possibly soon more) teams are looking for a head coach, will the …

“If you build it he will come.” That quote is, of course, from the movie “Field of Dreams.” Lincoln Riley is making good on his promise to build a top-tier defense by hiring Eric Henderson as co-defensive coordinator. This is a major step in returning USC to the defensive dominance fans have come to expect. “I’m excited to welcome the …
Read More »Eagles or Cowboys? A look at who’s in a better position to bounce back from horrible NFL playoff showing
Right now, the Eagles and Cowboys have one thing in common — they both were duds in the wild-card round of these NFL playoffs. My word. Philadelphia lost by 23 and allowed a 330-plus yard passer. Dallas lost by 16 at home and Packers quarterback Jordan Love averaged 13 yards per attempt in his postseason debut. Woof. But which NFC East …

I never truly thought the day would come, but the Nick Saban era at Alabama has officially come to a close. Saban made the stunning decision to step away from the sport last Wednesday afternoon in a move that sent shock waves across the college football landscape. In turn, the Tide landed former Washington head coach Kalen Deboer to fill …
