Suspension Over: Should the NFL welcome back Antonio Brown and who’s going to sign him?
Currently, the Seattle Seahawks look to be the leading contender to bring the services of AB to the gridiron one more time but that is only one of a supposed handful of squads who may be placing calls? As the NFL heads into Week 7, the Antonio Brown sweepstakes has begun once again. The All-Pro Wide Receiver’s suspension is slated to end after the Week 8 games and he looks on track to gain re-instatement to the league which would allow any of the 32 teams to jockey for signin

Does the NFL have a COVID problem?
Patriots suffer positive tests again as Colts become another team to report its first positive tests. The New England Patriots have canceled all football operations today in the wake of more positive tests. The team announced that two new players, one of which we know to be center James Ferentz, meaning this is not Newton, Gilmore or the two practice squad members, received positive tests this morning. They have closed off the facility, all players and staff were sent home an

Part 2: Patriots make trade for Browns WR ... Jarvis Landry?
Image C/O Cleveland Browns Ok, so what if the Patriots make a trade with the Cleveland Browns but the player they receive isn’t Odell Beckham Jr.?
It’s possible that Cleveland might be willing to dispense with Jarvis Landry and this might potentially be a better pickup for New England. Yes, OBJ carries the bigger notoriety but Landry comes with the bigger stat sheet and better overall percentages year-to-year than OBJ.
Here’s why Newton to Landry might possibly be better:

Top College Draft Picks running for the NFL to make HS players run to the NCAA.
An SFBN Special Report - Part 1 of 2. Providence, RI - As we come towards the last week of August, we continue to reflect on the bizarre nature of the year that 2020 has been. Where we normally would be gearing up for the college and high school sports seasons, we instead find ourselves questioning if or when students might actually even return to their school buildings and campuses. Some colleges have allowed portions of their student bodies back on campus while others have

Cam Newton: "I'm full go!" in first Patriots Press Conference
Foxboro, MA - The end of the first week of full training camp for the New England Patriots brought us the first instance of Cam Newton at the Gillette Stadium microphone, albeit with those of us in the press corps at a virtual social distance.
As the new era of the Belichick legacy begins, post Tom Brady, we find out where the mindset of the "next franchise man" (hopefully!) is during his integration to a Super Bowl Championship team.
“I have to prove to myself, that’s a d

Calculus: How the Patriots Got $7 million in Cap Space and still signed Cam Newton.
Image c/o of NBC Sports Boston The New England Patriots clearly won the weekend by announcing the settlements of two major contract grievances, that of the alleged $9 mil owed to ousted WR Antonio Brown, which was settled for $5 and the NFL finally crediting back the Patriots their unpaid contract amounts for former WR and now deceased Aaron Hernandez. The movements allowed the Patriots, who were at the low end of space to now walk away with roughly $7.8 mil in space. Belichi

Television & Sports: A Love Story
via MLB / Fox Sports / Boston Red Sox As the clock turns towards the second half of 2020 and many of us find ourselves due to the Covid-19 pandemic solely watching sports on television this summer, rather than attending games, we take a moment to look back in history at how this love affair with television and sports began and how we got to where we are today. Television debuted to the masses of the United States at the 1939 World Fair held in New York City when RCA head Davi

SuperMan has Landed!: Cam Newton Signs 1-year Deal with Patriots.
via NFL.com Former Carolina Panthers QB Cam Newton has come to the hallowed halls of Foxboro.
After his departure following the end of the 2019 season from the Panthers, the rumor mill began spinning that Newton may perhaps end up in a backup-mentor role to heir apparent Jarett Stidham. Even with the Patriots having a veteran QB in Brian Hoyer on the roster, Belichick and the Kraft family felt that wasn’t enough. Newton has seen his fair share of the Patriots over the year

Covid-19 Series, Chapter II: A Fandemic, to go or not to go to games
By Mike Has In our latest exploration into Covid-19 and sports, we exam the dilemmas fans face on deciding whether to attend games this year. Six words. As the opening to one of the most popular television shows ever starts “are you ready for some football?” I remember when the Hank Williams version included “Rock’n Randall” in it for admiration for Randall Cunningham. Like the song the National Football League will have to undergo a remix/redo for the upcoming season and may
