By Andrew Symes, Lead NFL Writer

Since he stepped down as coach after 12 seasons last week, the Giants expected reshuffle has taken place. Only, it was not so much of a reshuffle, as a ladder climb.

By Oliver Connolly, Editor-In-Chief

Hue Jackson is set to become the Cleveland Browns’ new head coach, with negotiations expected to be wrapped up before Friday.

By Oliver Connolly, Editor-In-Chief

What did we just witness?

Was that even a football game, or a football experience?

Last night’s game will go down in the pantheon of great playoff experiences, collapses, endings and individual meltdowns. Here’s a quick recap of all the madness that happened.

Ben Roethlisberger was carted off AGAIN, returned AGAIN.

That’s right, Big Ben once again was taken…

By Andrew Symes, Lead NFL Writer

We saw the two extremes of playoff football in back to back games on Saturday. The two AFC wildcard matchups provided intrigue in their own ways. One game was an insight into how a player new to a pressure situation can completely implode, the other into how the emotions of one can ruin all the good work of many others.

(5) Kansas City Chiefs 30 – 0 Houston…
