Been a while, huh? This kinda feels like coming back off Injured Reserve. So where have we been? It's been pretty much the entire season where I've been unable to write this year, for circumstances that were mostly, largely beyond my control. A bit of an uncertain future in my personal life combined with a change in living circumstances, difficulties with my mental health and to be honest? Not much of a desire to write really. The calendar year of 2019 was probably the most difficult I've had personally and it made it very challenging not only to write anything, but to be positive or even have things to look forward to. Kyle has been in a similar situation to myself so the page has been a bit dormant.  I'd also like to apologise to those who provided such amazing content for the Season Preview and never got it published. This was part of the problems I was having with my mental health, but for those I let down on this: I'm sorry. On the plus side, 202...

The initial plan for this was to post these before the season, but life kinda got in the way. Therefore, I'm gonna post the ones I got retroactively through the season. By high demand, Keira Tucker for the Tennessee Titans was the one most requested, so we start here. Follow her on Twitter. @HavingChips4Tea Interview conducted August 8th, 2019 Describe how last season went for you? Keira: Well we finished 9-7 which is technically a pass! That's pretty sweet if you ask me. Though we lost the last game of the season to some holed U team in Nashville that fucked everything up. Whatever happened to them? It's not important. We finished ahead of the London-In-A-Few-Years Jaguars so that's cool. What's your thoughts on your Draft and Free Agency? Keira: I'm not really into conscription, so the draft seems like something that should've died in Vietnam. In the "select university kids so they can get head injuries and forget all their education selecti...

Well, we finally made it. Mere days from Bears/Packers and the start of the 2019 NFL season and, assuming there aren’t anymore major trades or retirements (looking at you, AFC South!), we have enough information to make predictions. AFC NORTH Steelers 10-6 Browns   9-7 Ravens   7-9 Bengals  5-11 So, my AFC North predictions probably differ from a lot of peoples. That’s because there are too many bandwagons I’m not jumping on. The first of those is the Browns' bandwagon. The off-season was an exciting time on the shores of Lake Erie. Hue Jackson is gone and the Freddie Kitchens era has begun. In comes Odell Beckham JR from the Giants in a blockbuster trade, Kareem Hunt from Kansas City to add more weapons to Baker Mayfield’s arsenal. Greedy Williams joins Denzel Ward in the secondary and Olivier Vernon should do well opposite Myles Garrett. This has everyone raving about the Browns turn around but here’s the thing: they haven’t won anything yet and I’ve...

We did it! We finally made it. After a gruelling off season drought with no World Cup or Olympics in sight to tide us over, barely was anything to hold our sporting attention after the Stanley Cup Final (big congratulations to the St.Louis Blues for a comeback for the ages, which began as far back as January), and yes, I will completely disregard the cricket. Now, it is here! The start of the National Football League season, and not just any season: the league's centennial. That's right - 100 years of the NFL. For all that we level against the mighty shield, we're still here, and we still love it! So let's kick off  this special season by previewing every team and how I think they will fare. Starting with the National Football Conference thanks to that sweet, sweet NFC bias! Also the order the team is presented shall represent my predictions as to where they shall finish within their division. I am too cowardly to actually attempt records without defaulting to the ...

With the NFL Draft and the beginnings of Free Agency in the books, we thought it was time to look at the state of the NFL as it stands in May 2019, four months ahead of the season. Initially, I thought it’d be a good idea to run a full article with all thirty-two teams, but I underestimated how large that article would be. Therefore, it was decided that it would be a series of four, posted on consecutive days, in alphabetical order. Today, we look at teams O through Z. Well, W, as Washington is the last team in the league alphabetically, but I’m doing the whole A-Z thing, ok? Okay. Let’s go. OAKLAND RAIDERS So, Oakland! This should be a quiet, mundane affair, as the Raiders are well known for these days. Three first rounders and an impending move to Las Vegas next year, what’s happening in the meantime? Well, only one place to start: Antonio Brown. After the Steelers tried to ship him off to Buffalo and AB thought “the hell with that”, they managed to get a ...
