The NFL landscape shifted dramatically after the Los Angeles Rams acquired two-time Defensive Player of the Year Myles Garrett from the Cleveland Browns in exchange for Jared Verse, a first-round pick, and additional draft compensation. The blockbuster deal immediately reshaped the Super Bowl oddsboard, with the Rams surging as the heavy favorite to win Super…
Everything can change in one offseason in the NFL. Just take a look at what happened last year. The Seattle Seahawks and New England Patriots went head-to-head in Super Bowl LX after missing the playoffs in 2024. In fact, they were two of six teams (Carolina Panthers, Chicago Bears, Jacksonville Jaguars, San Francisco 49ers) to…
Ah, revenge games. Whenever an NFL player or coach goes up against an old team, it always makes for a good storyline. Sometimes, there’s no real hardcore animosity, and at least publicly, you’ll hear a lot about how it’s really just another game. So we’re not trying to manufacture hostility as much as highlight games…

Ten teams got a new head coach this offseason, which marked…
One of the most interesting ways to evaluate the NFL landscape is by looking at how many games in which each team is favored. While win totals and Super Bowl odds often dominate the offseason oddsboard, the number of games in which a team is projected to be favored can reveal just as much about…
In a 17-game season, starting off slowly can be the difference between reaching the playoffs and making plans for vacations to warmer climates in January. Look no further than the Minnesota Vikings, who dealt with injuries to starting quarterback J.J. McCarthy early and started the year 4-8, but finished on a five-game winning streak and…
