Well Football fans we have finally made it to the finish line of this regular season. Its sad that we won’t be able to top what happen last week. What am i talking about you may ask? Where should i start because there is almost no headline that doesn’t get mentioned. Lets get to the breaking news and its to no one’s surprised. Antonio Brown is finally release by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers after 5 days. I mean come on why was this not done earlier? i kept waiting for him to be release but it got to be so long it just borderline got out of hand. There goes the Bucs chances of repeating as super bowl champs. Matt Nagy will reportedly be let go on Monday, by the Chicago Bears. This is not a surprise either, it was only a matter of time. OK next coach please in Chicago, this will be the 4th time the Bears will be looking for a new head coach in the past 10 years. Lets hope they get this one right, for once? Jalen Hurts (Eagles QB) almost got hurt by some fans in Washington. Not a good idea to lean over the railing just to take a picture. Can we all be careful in the future. By the way, Washington Football Team please get a new stadium its a disaster out there. Can’t wait till February 2 when Washington unveils its new nickname, won’t that be exciting. Not really because someone has already let the cat out of the bag and possibly reveal the name already. I will not say what the name is, but i will reveal the source: that morning show from WFAN in New York should be your clue. I know the Playoffs are coming, however not that many spots left going into the weekend (2 in AFC,1 in NFC). The Saints and 49ers are dueling for the last wild card in the NFC. In the AFC there are 5 teams trying to nail down the final 2 spots. However it really should be 3 teams for 2 spots. The Ravens-Steelers game could be all for not if the Colts win on Sunday. However there is a slight hope for them, the Colts have not won in Jacksonville since 2014. Hard to believe right, well sadly its true a 6 game losing streak will have to be snapped if they want to play in the postseason. The Raiders-Chargers game is in a weird spot, but that will depend on how the day’s action shape out.
