Falcons Cut Ridgewood’s Younghoe Koo After 6 Years, Bring In Virginia Tech Kicker
New Jersey native Younghoe Koo is looking for a new job after the Atlanta Falcons replaced the longtime kicker with a Virginia Tech alum. John Parker Romo is in, Koo is out, after the 28-year-old went 5-for-5 in the team's Sunday Night Football win over the Minnesota Vikings last week. Koo had been a fixture in Atlanta for years, becoming one of the league's most consistent kickers before suffering a hip injury that altered the Ridgewood man's career. During his first five seasons with the Falcons, Koo made nearly 90 percent of his field goals before a hip injury in 2024 landed him on inju…

Two Points Short: Ravens Aim Higher In 2025
Two points. That’s what stood between the Baltimore Ravens and the AFC Championship game in 2024. After a season that rewrote the record books, it ended in heartbreak—a 27–25 loss to the Buffalo Bills in the Divisional Round. Even becoming the first team in NFL history to notch both 4,000 passing yards and 3,000 rushing yards in a single season wasn’t enough. And for a team built on grit and expectations, that stings. But it also motivates. With preseason tickets already on sale—and regular season seats flying fast—now’s the time for fans to lock in their spots at M&T Bank Stadiu…

New Year, New QB, New Hope—Be There When The NY Giants Hit Reset
With a new quarterback and the explosive second year wideout Malik Nabers, Giants fans have reason to believe that better days are ahead. The 2024 season was brutal. The Giants went 3–14, their fourth-worst record in franchise history. They were swept by every NFC East rival and went nearly three months—89 days—without a single win. That kind of season leaves a mark. But it also clears the slate. And this year, the slate is clean. It all starts with the preseason, and fans won’t have to wait long to get a look at the new lineup.

'Tush Push' Ban Narrowly Rejected By NFL Owners, Eagles Waste No Time Taunting Opponents
Push, Eagles push. NFL owners officially voted down a proposal to ban the controversial quarterback sneak play known as the "tush push," according to NFL.com. The vote was taken during the NFL's spring league meeting on Wednesday, May 21.

"Tush push" critics have said the scrum isn't a true football play and may be dangerous for players, especially linemen. The Green Bay Packers proposed the ban, which fell two votes shy of the 24 needed to pas…
