How Can Jalen Hurts Prove Himself in 2022?

I am a big fan of Jalen Hurts. Like, a really big fan. I mean, what’s not to love about the guy? His mentality embodies everything one could want in a “face of the franchise” - he’s got the grit, confidence, and work ethic to back it all up. Most genuine Philly fans can at…

Conference Championships: NFL locks, safe bets, and games to avoid (2021-22)

Spoilers: this is going to be a very short article this week. In multiple ways, I anticipate both conference championships won’t be as good as the games in the divisional round. Granted, last’s performances were simply absurd in some circumstances. Fortunately, I imagine that at least one game this week will be easier to predict…

When’s the last time so many teams were floating around .500 heading into December?

Heck, some games in January…

Week 13: NFL locks, safe bets, and games to avoid

Bless the Football Gods, nearly every game this week has playoff implications! There’s only one, maybe two, game{s} this week between two bad teams. This is a far cry from the past couple of weeks where the lineup of games has been a shot in the dark.  Lock Cardinals (-7.5) vs. Bears (+7.5): Cardinals I…

Week 12: NFL locks, safe bets, and games to avoid

This week is both concerning and interesting to me. Aside from one or two games, I can see this matchup going either way. If I’m as smart as I think I am, I can navigate these tricky waters this week. If not, we’re all diving into the same hellacious waters together. Wish me luck…  Safe…
