Never in my life have I associated Adele’s “Hello” with the NFL. After last night’s Sunday Night Football game, I do not think I can unlink the two. The game featured the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (2-1) traveling to the New England Patriots (1-2) in a game not expected to be close by most. Vegas set

So, the Patriots signed Cam Newton … again. Remember when that sentence was exciting? I believe my exact emotions were hesitation at first and then ultimately relief and excitement. And then the 2020 season happened. It was great to see Brady (who had been my team’s quarterback for my entire life — literally) win another

Dear Mr. Newton, Welcome to New England. You’re much closer to my home right now than I am, but let me just say thank you for being there. You’ve brought new life to the quarterback position at Gillette Stadium and I could not be more grateful, nor could Foxborough. While I should’ve known more, I

Pack it in boys, it’s all over. Tebowmania is finished for good this time. He couldn’t find success with the Jets, Bill Belichick couldn’t find a way to use him in New England and not even Chip Kelly — among his wave of inexplicable personnel decisions — could find a place on a 53-man roster for

Between Tim Tebow and Jameis Winston, give me the Gator, please. Wait. What’d he just say? You heard me. As the pre-NFL Combine talk begins to heat up, we are already going deaf from the so-called “experts” beginning to debate who should go first overall April 30 on the campus of Roosevelt University in Chicago.

Now that the red, white and blue confetti has settled on Super Bowl XLIX, we can look back on the Seattle Seahawks’ last offensive play with a little more thought. At the time of the play, of course, the reaction was near-outrage. Emmitt Smith tweeted that Seattle’s decision to pass was “the worst play call
