He stated the following:  “Trying to remain objective and unemotional as I learn of the ESPN team members laid off today. Not possible. Not as I see...

A New Era In Washington: What it Means to Me as a Fan

Reading Time: 2 minutesIn the NFL, everything is about situation and opportunity, opposed to solely talent. When evaluating a QB, it’s important that we look at the situation handed to this QB, and if it’s fair to criticize that player.

I don’t want to focus solely on stats, but for this stance, I have to bring up statistics to benefit my point of...
