NFL – Bengals O-Line as a construction site

Munich/Cincinnati - It was an afternoon for the history books as the Cincinnati Bengals won the divisional playoffs at the Tennessee Titans.Not only did the guests from Ohio end their long dry spell in terms of away wins in the playoffs, but the Titans also set a record: Joe Burrow was sacked nine times, a playoff high. The reason for this lies not only in the Titans' excellent pass rush, but also in the Bengals' holey offensive line.Burrow injured by weak O-Line - Chase over Sewell in draftThis isn't a new problem with the Bengals. Already in 2020, the protection for the Bengals quarterback was almost non-existent. Cincinnati's tackles were and are maliciously referred to as "revolving doors."It was not for nothing that Joe Burrow, first pick in the 2020 draft, had to watch almost h...

Giants continue to rely on Daniel Jones, Watson not an issue

Munich/New York – Even under the new general manager Joe Schoen, Daniel Jones continues to enjoy full confidence with the New York Giants. "The boy has good physical abilities. He has the arm strength, he's athletic and he can walk," said new general manager Joe Schoen at his first press conference. "I'm really looking forward to working with Daniel. When the new staff is here - meaning the offensive coordinator, the head coach, all the staff - then we're going to build an offense around Daniel and through that bring out what he does best can." Jones was picked surprisingly early in the 2019 NFL Draft at position 6 and so far has not lived up to expectations.In the 2021 season, he recorded a respectable 2,428 passing yards and a throwing accuracy of 64.27 percent in eleven appearance...

College coach doubted Ja’Marr Chase as receiver

Munich – Les Miles was considered one of the best college coaches of his time. He coached the LSU Tigers from 2005 to 2016, winning the 2007 national championship and two Southeastern Conference titles.

That was something I carried on my shoulders." This conversation took place when Chase was still playing for Archbishop Rummel High School in Metairie, Louisiana.Ja'Marr Chase should act as a cornerback Miles wanted to put Chase on defense instead. "Les Miles told me he thought I could play cornerback," he recalled. Chas...

Munich – Rob Gronkowski does it like buddy Tom Brady: He takes his time. Gathering distance to rest after a bitter divisional round playoff loss with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. So there would be no point in talking to the tight end about his future in the NFL or the Bucs right now. Although his contract is up and he would be a free agent in March, the answer you would get from "Gronk" now would be pretty clear - and for fans a sad one.Rob Gronkowski: "I will not play""If they said, 'Rob, you have to decide right now, right this second, whether you're going to play next year,' I would say 'no' right now," Gronkowski told TMZ.com.

He also wants to keep in mind that the Green Bay Packers and the players still have other personnel decisions to make that may be related to Rodgers' future.Rodgers praises the retirements of Peyton Manning and John Elway "I think there should be enough time to make a decision by then," says the 38-year-old.
