The NCAA basketball tourney might be getting all the heat during this spring spree, but the real March Madness is what’s coming out of the NFL offseason.
What the holy heck is going on in the league? Because it feels soooo good!
Elementary Watson
Deshaun Watson has finally found at home in Ohio, but not everyone is thrilled.
Despite not facing any criminal charges, the thigh rubbing ways of Watson is rubbing some fans the wrong way.
Deshaun gets paid big time, and the Browns finally have the baller that they need to compete in an ever dangerous AFC.
It shouldn’t surprise NFL fans that the stink bomb of Watson would follow him wherever he went.
Obviously a team in Las Vegas is going to care less about the issue than the Browns, because that would be the expected behaviour from a Raider.
Hopefully we can all get back to bitching about the Texans and Jets on their own merits.
Rodger Dodger
Maybe the real Last Dance was last year, as Aaron Rodgers slate of dance partners are sashaying off to find other boogie mates.
Davante Adams took less money to go to Vegas and play with Derek Carr, which shows that maybe the tight clique that they have had wasn’t as strong as we all believed.
With VD Scantling also off to greener pastures, Green Bay would have many receiving options they can afford (maybe Cole Beasley?)
Has Rodgers stance from last season come back to bit him in the ass? Or is he an ass for demanding so much money?
At least they’re coming to London.
Chief Concerns
Ruh Roh Patrick! Is everyone leaving you?
Kansas City Chiefs have had some concerns this week, as the Cheetah sprinted off to a nicer jungle, taking a massive pay raise with the Miami Dolphins.
Perhaps it was the signing of Tik Tok Tyrant Juju that put Tyreek over the edge, but whatever it was, the Chiefs had lost a massive talent.
Sure, Tyreek saw a drop in performance last year, but the whole Chiefs team did.
The real question is how are the Dolphins going to hit him with the deep ball?
Florida Tom
Tom Brady is back in Florida, and the Bucs are ready for another season.
But hold on! Rumours are circling the bowl that TB12 is going to play in Florida…but for the Dolphins!
Rumours earlier this season that Tom was moving to Miami, only to stop that train once Brian Flores threw down his ‘Fuck you Miami’ speech.
With Flores off to Pittsburgh, the whispers continue that Tommy might still make a trade to the Fins, and give the Bucs plenty if trade picks.
While it sounds sweet, it would be hard to see recent Tampa signings like Godwin and Gage happy that Tommy squirted off to another sunset.
No Charges
There’s only one NFL team that has had ZERO arrests over the past five years, and that team is the LA Chargers.
The Chargers have also had ZERO fans over this same period, so the figures aren’t totally surprising.
Las Vegas blew the wad on arrests last year, making the Raiders head office and locker rooms a great source of inmate potential.
Lucky for Los Angeles, they have made a bunch of signings in the off season, so those arrest records could be climbing up any week now.
Bucking Colts
The Falcons showed their cards when they said they would go all in for Deshaun Watson, not something their veteran QB Matt Ryan wanted to hear.
No surprise then that Matty Ice got stone cold on ATL, and asked to fly, fly, fly.
The stars aligned pretty good for Matty with the Indianapolis Colts, who have had a sucky QB for the past few years.
While past ball-slingers who rolled into Indy might have been on their last legs, Ryan could be the QB that gets the Colts further than turding it out during their first playoff game.
Might be worth throwing £10 on the Colts winning the AFC as a cheeky bet!
London Games
Packers and Saints are hosting home games at Tottenham, and the Jaguars are once again playing in Wembley.
But who do they play and when?
We will have all of our predictions for you next week!
