The Cowboys had 52 sacks as a team in 2024 and that number plummeted to 35 the following season. While […]
For the most part, over the last month, there’s been plenty of outspoken disappointment and second-guessing surrounding the Detroit Lions’ less-than-splashy free agent approach.

Notably, only three of the 14 playoff teams from 2025 ranked in the […]

By most all accounts, the St. Louis Cardinals have outperformed early expectations of the first year of the rebuild. Despite doing more subtracting than adding to their major league roster this past offseason, the Cardinals are off to a better start than they had in their previous “contending” years. Rightly, the vast majority of the […]
It’s ugly right now. The offense isn’t hitting, the defense can’t field and the pitching hasn’t been as sharp as we’ve seen in the past. There feels like a lot is just off with the team. People can still say it’s early and that they had time while also admitting that things need to get […]
