After looking impressive in relief of Washington Redskins quarterback Mark Sanchez in the blowout loss to the Giants in Week 14, head coach Jay Gruden said that Josh Johnson will start against the Jaguars in Week 15.

New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady completed 27 of 43 passes for 359 yards and three touchdowns in the Patriots wild, unpredictable 34-33 loss to the Dolphins.

Michael Gallup, Tyron Smith Playing Sunday

Dallas Cowboys rookie wide receiver Michael Gallup (illness) and left tackle Tyron Smith (neck) are both active for Week 14 against the Eagles. Gallup missed practice on Friday but is fine to play in a big divisional matchup with Philly. He may be at less than 100 percent but has a great matchup and could […]

Matthew Stafford, Bruce Ellington Active

Detroit Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford (back), wide receiver Bruce Ellington (back) and tight end Michael Roberts (shoulder) are active in Week 14 against the Cardinals. Stafford is running out of playmakers on offense due to injuries and trades, so even in a good matchup he'll be a mediocre QB2 play this weekend. Ellington has an […]

Tom Coughlin Could Take Over Head-Coaching Duties In 2019

There is growing belief that Jacksonville Jaguars president Tom Coughlin could wind up serving as the head coach in 2019. The team was embarrassed in a blowout loss to the Titans last Thursday after surprising with an AFC Championship appearance in 2017. The Jaguars have been marred by fights, suspensions and lack of discipline all […]

Jaguars Plan To Move On From Blake Bortles

Alex Smith Unlikely To Be Ready For 2019 Season

Washington Redskins quarterback Alex Smith (leg), who remains in the hospital after needing additional surgeries to fight an infection in his surgically repaired broken leg, is unlikely to be ready for the start of the 2019 season.

Panthers Not Worried About Cam Newton

The Carolina Panthers are not worried about quarterback Cam Newton's shoulder, and he can still make all the necessary throws he needs to heading into Week 14 against the Browns. Newton is not expected to need another offseason surgery on his right shoulder either. Against a Browns defense missing stud rookie cornerback Denzel Ward in […]

Week 14 Start/Sit: Monday Night Football Matchup Analysis

The Minnesota Vikings (6-5-1) head to Seattle to take on the Seahawks Monday night while still possessing a very legitimate shot at their second-straight NFC North championship.

NFL Survivor Pool Picks (Week 14) - Targets and Avoids

Of course last week I write, "It has been one top-heavy year." In Week 13, most of the favorites got it handed to them.
