       The NFL offseason is finally among us and leads the fans to many questions around the NFL. The biggest storylines come out with free agency, draft, and players asking for trades. But the biggest storyline this season has to be Lamar Jackson and the non-exclusive franchise tag. Deshaun Watson had teams ready to give him a fully guaranteed contract and trading multiples picks for him when teams knew he was going to get suspended. Russell Wilson had teams willing to do the exact same thing but teams cautious about his age and when he was going to decline. Lamar Jackson is 26 years old and a former MVP. Teams have said they do not want to have talks with Jackson because the Ravens will match the offer. Teams do not want to do all this work for Jackson, just for the Ravens to use them to get a contract done with Jackson. That makes sense but teams need a quarterback.      There are multiple teams in the NFL that need a QB like Lamar Jackson to take them where they want to go. Having

       10 weeks down in college football. November football is finally upon us and we saw that this weekend. Scores closer than they should be due to weather, this is the fun weather. The playoff rankings are finally here and did not disappoint us. Every year the committee says they do not look at years past and only base their rankings off this year, but Clemson was still in the top 4. Lets get into my reactions from Week 10. - MACtion is the best, so glad someone thought of putting football on a Tuesday night. - Clemson got exposed as frauds. Clemson does not look the same without Brent Venables and Tony Elliot. This Clemson team does not even look like they have in the past.  - Brian Kelly vs Nick Saban, the next great rivalry.  - It took Brian Kelly 11 years to beat a top-5 team as the head coach at Notre Dame. It took Marcus Freeman 9 games. - SMU 77, Houston 63.  It was the highest scoring regulation game in FBS history. Clayton Tune vs  Tanner Mordecai was a game for the ages. 

       The Lakers are 0-2 and have one of the best players of all time on their roster. When healthy Anthony Davis is a top 10 player in the NBA, but man does he love wearing a suit on the bench. Or as Charles Barkley would say Anthony "Street Clothes" Davis. This team does not look together and does not look like they practice shooting in practice. I think its time to call the 6'0 point guard out of North Central College to come help the purple and yellow to bring back the Showtime Lakers.      The Lakers need a point guard, BADLY.  Russell Westbrook, Patrick Beverley and Kendrick Nunn shot 1-25 from the field COMBINED. Westbrook is constantly being left open and he thinks it's a bad rotation so he shoots. But defenses leave him open on purpose but he still shoots. I wish I had that much confidence in life as Westbrook open in the corner. Westbrook shot 0-11 from the field, I know I could make at least one. I like to think I'm more of a distributor so I would pla

       It is starting to look like there will be a quarterback competition in New England. Some are saying Mac Jones is a system quarterback, some are me. It looks like New England has drafted back to back rookie of the year quarterbacks, first with Mac Jones and now with Bailey Zappe. Now some are saying if a 9-5 office worker went out there against the Detroit Lions and Cleveland Browns, they would put up those numbers too and they are probably right. We have seen this before and there are 2 instances.      New England has been known to put out system quarterbacks. Tom Brady has gotten hurt in the past and when back up quarterbacks got in, they simply ball out. Leading them to sign big contracts to start on other teams.  Jimmy Garoppolo has probably been the most successful to do this as he lead a 49ers team to the Super Bowl even if he did get carried by his defense. Jacoby Brissett is still starting to this day in the NFL so he has to be doing something right. Probably the most for

       There are multiple games in Europe this year, it seems like every time I wake on Sunday there is already a game on in Europe. There used to be just 1 or 2 but now there are games in London, Germany, or Mexico City, the NFL is looking to playing games across the world. But the NFL has always been rumored to want a team in London to grow the audience that has been growing rapidly over the last few years. The Jaguars have even got rid of one of their home games every year to play to Europe.      Rodger  Goodell has hinted at having 4 teams in Europe because having a division would be easier on travel. “We’re trying to see, could you have multiple locations in Europe where you could have an NFL franchise, because it would be easier as a division,” Goodell stated before the Packers Giants game took place.      Now here are the questions that everyone will ask. Why does there need to be teams in Europe? How will it work if there are multiple teams in Europe? What if a European team wa

       The Chiefs came back and won last night against the Raiders. Adams had 3 catches for 124 yards and 2 tuddys for the boys in black and silver. The Raiders got the ball back late in the game down one where they looked to Adams to get them a touchdown or drive down the field to kick a field goal to win the game. Adams caught a ball to give the Raiders a huge catch to flip the field and was ruled a catch. After instant replay, it was ruled not a catch. The Raiders then had 4th down where they did not get the first down, turning the ball over and losing the game. Adams went to the sideline where he slammed his helmet down on the ground. Adams seemed frustrated after the last drive and the Raiders moving to 1-4 on the season.       But me personally, I would not let that slide. I don't know if that's just me or anything, but Adams would not do me dirty like that. Now lets set the scene. Adams is very frustrated and he can't believe they blew that big of a lead, the Raiders

       The Big Ten has been one of the most interesting conferences in all of college football this season. There seems to be 2 categories, the Big Dawgs and Trash Teams in the Midwest. The Big Dawgs consist of Michigan, Ohio State, and Penn State which seems to be the teams competing for the Big Ten title every year. One of these schools have won the Big Ten title dating all the way back to 2016. The other category is the Trash Teams in the Midwest which includes the 11 other Big Ten team. The West just seems to knock off each other by beating each other on the road each week. Wisconsin were the preseason favorites and no longer have a coach. Minnesota seemed to run the west and now lost to Purdue AT HOME DURING HOMECOMING. Looking around the west it is anyones for the taking. Illinois makes the most sense to win the west.            Bret Bielema has the boys ready for any challenge and playing the best football Illinois has played in YEARS. Chase Brown is playing like Heisman finalis
