The Baltimore Ravens had one of the hottest starts to the 2017 NFL season. Through the first two weeks, the Ravens’ defense created a league-high 10 takeaways, while shutting out AFC North divisional rivals, the Cincinnati Bengals, 20-0, in the season opener. But things have gone south quickly. After a promising 2-0 start, the team […]

Sometime around 2011-12 while Jim Schwartz was the head coach of the Detroit Lions, I found myself at Ford Field and shared a few moments with Jim prior to the game, talking about his defense that featured many accomplished players. On that Sunday afternoon while he was watching his team warm up, with an intensity […]
The Eagles head coach talks about injuries to defensive tackle Fletcher Cox (out), cornerback Ronald Darby (ankle)- who is also out for Sunday – Questionable are Safety Corey Graham (hamstring), running back Wendell Smallwood (knee), DT Destiny Vaeao (wrist) and safety Jaylen Watkins (hamstring).
Pederson also tries to avoid questions that he is possibly holding out players on Sunday because the Eagles travel to Carolina on Thursday, obviously a short week.
EAST RUTHERFORD: For a team that is 0-4 and seemingly already out of the NFC playoff picture, the New York Giants locker room was surprisingly upbeat this week at the G-Men prepared to take on the also win-less San Diego Chargers (0-4) at MetLife Stadium (1:00 PM on CBS). The Giants offensive line has taken […]

FOX). Cardinal’s quarterback Carson […]
In 2016, Philadelphia Eagles were 5-1 in games their stud right tackle Lane Johnson played in and 2-8 during his 10-game suspension for violating the NFL’s substance abuse policy for the second time. The Dallas Cowboys lost guard Ronald Leary when he left to sign with the Denver Broncos and lost 10-year veteran tackle Doug […]
The Giants have their faults for sure: An offensive line that is not effective in the run game. Big Blue does not have the running backs who could take advantage of good blocking even if they did. Special teams has let them down when it counts the most…giving up walk-off field goals on back-to back […]
