You’d have to go back to Joe Burrow, I… Read More 2024 NFL Draft QB Rankings: #4 Michael Penix
Yesterday morning, former Steelers running back Rashard Mendenhall woke up and chose violence.

A lot of people are hung… Read More WOULD A TEAM OF ALL WHITE NFL PLAYERS BEAT A TEAM OF ALL BLACK NFL PLAYERS?!
The newly updated tiers: There’s just a ton of mediocrity in the league right now. I bumped the 49ers up to the second tier because of how good McCaffrey looked.

I haven’t done my NFL power ratings in a while but we’re back for week 11. The Bills were on top when I last did the ratings (week 7) and they remain on top. They’re just so highly-ranked in virtually every category. Really the only place you can knock them is in strength of schedule,… Read More NFL Week 11 Power Ratings: Bills Remain On Top
