After professing as much during the preseason, the Carolina Panthers are using Christian McCaffrey as a workhorse back. Christian McCaffrey was as advertised as a versatile weapon for the Carolina Panthers during his rookie season in 2017, with 80 receptions and usage as a return man. That also meant he got just 117 carries, while
Week 6 has passed and boy was it a weird one. What matchups are primed for the biggest points this weekend in the NFL? Let’s dive into it. What do we have this week for you? Hold your horses. We’ve got a kicker and a defense for starters. I like matchups at all levels so
The Oakland Raiders are surely taking offers for practically any veteran player, but Jon Gruden insists Derek Carr won’t be traded. Jon Gruden instantly made the Oakland Raiders the oldest roster in the league, with players who would have made up a heck of a team five years ago (Jordy Nelson, Doug Martin, etc.). Then
The NFL is starting to get into the cold-weather schedule, and the announcing pairings have been announced for Week 8 action.

When New Orleans Saints fans got the notification Tuesday afternoon saying that the team had acquired cornerback Eli Apple from the New York Giants, the immediate reaction was disappointment. While Apple
After yet another trade, Raiders coach Jon Gruden is now starting to lose the trust of his own players. Things were already bad enough for Jon Gruden’s Oakland Raiders. Before the season even started, Gruden traded away Khalil Mack, arguably the best defensive player in the NFL, and received enormous amounts of criticism for it.
Dalvin Cook has only played in three games so far this season, and his fantasy owners may have to do without him for a couple more. As rookie in 2017, Dalvin Cook hit the ground running with 354 rushing yards (4.8 yards per carry in four games. But a torn ACL in that fourth game
The Minnesota Vikings have the league’s best wide receiver in Adam Thielen, something he continually proving on a weekly basis. Ladies and gentleman; we have a new No.1 at wide receiver. For the past several seasons, there has been a debate about who is the best receiver in the NFL. Depending on the year, you
The Philadelphia Eagles fell to 3-4 after their fourth-quarter meltdown against the Carolina Panthers. Whether they can recover from the Week 7 loss depends on reviving the defense. The defending Super Bowl champions have had a tumultuous start to their 2018 season. Seven games in, and all we know about this Philadelphia Eagles team is
The Jacksonville Jaguars might be a playoff team with Derek Carr, but because of free-agency splashes following draft misses, they can’t afford him. Nobody in the NFL has better defensive personnel than the Jacksonville Jaguars, and boy, are they paying handsomely for it. From 2007-13, the Jaguars drafted 50 players and found a single Pro

A trade shocked the NFL world on Monday when the Dallas Cowboys and Oakland Raiders completed a deal. The Dallas Cowboys lost on Sunday and enter their bye week at 3-4. Offensively, the team has been a roller coaster all season. One thing was clear, the receivers needed an upgrade. Owner Jerry Jones decided to
Blake Bortles may be starting Week 8, but the Jaguars are pretty clearly open to Cody Kessler stepping in as the starter. With a third straight scoreless first half on Sunday against the Houston Texans and his second fumble of the game in the third quarter, Blake Bortles was benched in favor of Cody Kessler.
Amari Cooper definitely gives the Cowboys an upgrade at the wide receiver position, but Dallas paid entirely too much to acquire him. Jon Gruden hasn’t made many savvy moves during his tenure with the Raiders, but he has managed to take advantage of the Dallas Cowboys. Jerry Jones was so desperate for a quality wide

Jacksonville needs to figure out its quarterback situation fast, and the solution might be in Cleveland or Oakland.

DeVante Parker joined the Miami Dolphins organization in 2015 as the 14th overall draft pick, and the fan base expected him to eventually develop into Ryan Tannehill’s best target. Three years later, it appears Parker’s tumultuous time in Miami will becoming to a disappointing close. Although DeVante Parker showed promise in the 2016 and 2017
Chicago Bears second-year quarterback Mitchell Trubisky showed off his athleticism in a close loss to the New England Patriots in Week 7, but it doesn’t seem like he’s earned the full trust of Matt Nagy and the Bears coaching staff. As a rookie, Chicago Bears passer Mitchell Trubisky showed encouraging signs of being a future
The Jacksonville Jaguars are now 3-4 after losing three consecutive games, largely because the offense can’t score and the defense is exhausted. There’s no statistic for being fed up. There’s also no statistic for the mental toll it must take for a great defense watching its offensive compliment fumble and bumble its way to one

Amari Cooper came into the NFL as an incredibly promising wide receiver prospect, with many analysts believing that Cooper
With Ryan Tannehill sidelined again, the Miami Dolphins need to consider all their options with the former top-10 pick. After being drafted eighth overall in 2012, Ryan Tannehill started every game for the Miami Dolphins over almost five full seasons. Whether that was a good thing or not can be debated, with an 86.5 passer
