‘Quarterbacks Are Weird, Man’ — Bucs Star Baker Mayfield Reveals Why We’ll Likely Never See a QBU Despite Success of TEU.
Baker Mayfield, Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback, is known for speaking his mind both on and off the field. Recently, he offered a candid take on why, despite the runaway success of Tight End University (TEU), he doesn’t expect quarterbacks to follow suit with a similar event anytime soon.

Justin Herbert (QB - LAC)
7/1/25 3:16 PM -
Is Los Angeles Chargers coach Jim Harbaugh overrated?. Very few NFL coaches receive as much public recognition as Jim Harbaugh, who took the Los Angeles Chargers' job in his return to the professional level last year. Immediately upon adding Harbaugh, the Chargers were viewed as a potential sleeper in the AFC, and they delivered by winning 11 games and making the playoffs while playing a smashmouth brand of football. Los Angeles was bounced in the Wild Card Round, but armed with significant cap space and one of the league's best pure passers in Justin Herbert, the offseason seemed very promising in LA.

Superstar defender goes to bat for ex-Seahawks QB Geno Smith over heated exchange. Former Seattle Seahawks and current Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Geno Smith has always talked trash on the field. At multiple points during his Seahawks career, Smith was the primary player breathing life into the Seattle offense with his energy. During a 7-on-7 football event on June 28, Smith, who is a coach for the team South Florida Express (SFE), was seen in a video posted to social media trash talking the opponent on the sidelines and shouting "That's why they pay me the big bucks!" during his team's win, which was broadcast on NFL Network.

It has been an interesting offseason for former Ohio State Buckeyes wide receiver Terry McLaurin, who is at odds with the Washington Commanders over his contract. In the event that the Commanders aren't able to strike a pact with the two-time Pro Bowler, a trade could be possible, and Romell Williams of FanSided has named the Pittsburgh Steelers as a potential landing spot for him.

Cowboys' Matt Eberflus slighted in NFL defensive coordinator rankings. One of the primary reasons Dallas Cowboys Nation began to buy into new head coach Brian Schottenheimer was the staff he assembled. Sure, they all love his positive approach, but it's been easier to believe they can find success thanks to an All-Star collection of talent surrounding the first-time head coach. While many of the hires were home runs, the top name on Schottenheimer's staff is Matt Eberflus, their new defensive coordinator. Eberflus rose to prominence as a linebacker coach in Dallas, then proved to be a great defensive mind while serving as the defensive coordinator with the Indianapolis Colts.

Such is the case with New York Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart, for whom the team traded up to get in the first round this year, a player whom Giants nation hopes will turn the tide of the uneven luck the franchise has had since the glory years of the Eli Manning era. The early media reviews on Dart have been positive to the point where some in the national media have increased their opinions about when the Giants should rip off the bandage and start Dart right away, so he can gain the much-needed experience that can't be replicated in the controlled practice environment.

Why Mattison Could Become Key Under-the-Radar Pick-Up. Alexander Mattison's one-year, $1.3 million deal ranks among Miami's cheapest offseason moves, yet the seventh-year back may help solve one of the offense's biggest flaws: short-yardage inconsistency. While the offense as a whole regressed last season, dropping from second to 23rd in yards per play, short-yardage struggles have been a steady issue under Mike McDaniel. At 5-11 and 220 pounds, Mattison brings a more physical profile than any back Miami rostered in 2024. Mattison, a 2019 third-round pick by the Vikings, has topped 130 rushing attempts in three of the past four seasons, including last year with the Raiders.

Bleacher Report writer Alex Ballentine expressed concern over the effectiveness of the team's newest additions on defense. It's a bit poetic that they've brought back Tre'Davious White as a backup plan at cornerback. The Bills brought in Larry Ogunjobi and Michael Hoecht this offseason, but they would be better off if Sanders, Jackson and Walker show they are long-term answers up front.

If those changes don't result in the type of positive turnout this front office expects, it could get ugly for C.J. Stroud and this scoring attack. Simply, the offensive line is a major factor for the Texans' ceiling and floor for next season, and in the eyes of Sports Illustrated's Albert Breer, it could be the most important position group for a team's individual success across the NFL.

Sure, the Packers, Vikings and Lions might have one or even two backs who rate higher individually, but the Bears' backfield plan under Johnson for this season looks like a true group effort rather than one or two backs.

Now, as Kamara enters his eighth NFL season and approaches age 30, the question shifts from what he's done to what's left in the tank. Despite missing four games in 2023, Kamara still led the Saints in both rushing and total yards from scrimmage (1,160), proving his value in a struggling offense.

Las Vegas added a quarterback to get the ball to its pass-catchers more consistently, meaning we could see even better versions of Bowers and Mayer in 2025. Not only that, but the depth of Ian Thomas and Justin Shorter is impressive.

The Top 100 Plays of the First Quarter of the Century: 6-10. Setting the stage: Despite the well-publicized events of "Bullygate," the Dolphins found themselves still hoping for a playoff spot with a 7-6 record as they prepared to face the New England Patriots in Miami. Five days before the game, the Dolphins signed safety Michael Thomas off the San Francisco 49ers practice squad no doubt unaware of the huge role he was about to play. The play: The Dolphins trailed 20-17 before taking the lead on Ryan Tannehill's pass to Marcus Thigpen with 1:15 left in regulation, but then watched Tom Brady move the Patriots from their 20 to a first-and-10 at the Miami 19 with 27 seconds left.

Due to his age, contract demands and the fact that Baltimore has a younger tight end in Isaiah Likely waiting in the wings, many have speculated that the Ravens could look to trade Andrews this offseason, even though they've suggested that won't be the case.

Seahawks insider believes Mike Macdonald could make shocking OL change.

Interesting enough, Ben Rolfe of Pro Football Sports Network ranked the offensive fronts in 2025 for all 32 clubs back in late April. While Zabel is expected to be the starter at left guard next to tackle Charles Cross, and Abraham Lucas (if healthy) should hold down the right tackle spot, there are uncertainties elsewhere.

Former Iowa Star Tight End Poised for Bounceback Season in Detroit. Former Iowa Hawkeye star tight end Sam LaPorta had a bit of a down year in his second season with the Detroit Lions. While a statline of 60 catches for 726 yards and seven touchdowns is hardly a bad season for a second-year tight end, his rookie campaign was a record-setting year at the position, which set a high bar. LaPorta is due for a third-year bounceback season, but it's not just because he's coming into this season looking for one. No, instead, Detroit Lions analyst John Vaccaro of Athlon Sports sees LaPorta's return to form having to do with new weaknesses that exist in the Detroit offense.

Well, Dan Fornek of Pro Football Network seems to have questions about McLaurin, at least from a Fantasy Football perspective. More specifically, he wonders if the 29-year-old can replicate his success in scoring touchdowns after punching in 13 scores last season. "... There's a real chance that 2024 was the best season we'll see out of McLaurin.

Ben Johnson (TE - LAC)
6/30/25 7:39 AM -
Biggest defensive challenges ahead for Dennis Allen at Bears camp. The tendency is to look at the Bears as a team building an offense but with a defense already in place and waiting to win. This is largely because of the difficult task ahead for coach Ben Johnson building offensive success from complete failure. With Johnson in charge and new defensive coordinator Dennis Allen running things, the status quo has changed. While the Bears haven't gone straight from an attacking 4-3 to a read-and-react 3-4, their 4-3 defense will be using tactics far different than when Matt Eberflus helped GM Ryan Poles construct that side of the ball.

Former NY Giants QB Daniel Jones's Agent Offers Insight into 11th Hour Contract Negotiations. It's funny how things sometimes work out–or, in the case of the New York Giants, don't work out. The New York Giants were just coming off their first postseason appearance since 2016, one in which they won their first postseason game since 2011. Quarterback Daniel Jones and running back Saquon Barkley were both up for new contracts, the Giants having decided not to exercise Jones's option year the prior spring. The plan was to get Barkley under contract before the 2023 season so that they would have the franchise tag available to use for Jones, a quarterback about whom they were still unsure despite his having had a strong season in 2022.

Rodgers admitted after signing that Metcalf's presence was one of the deciding factors for him when coming to terms with his new team. As for Metcalf, he's excited to work with Rodgers — and it's hard to blame him after months of believing it would be Mason Rudolph or Will Howard who started under center.

Bills' surprise pick in 2026 NFL mock draft could be blessing for Josh Allen. During the 2025 NFL draft, the Buffalo Bills were heavily focused on the defensive side of the ball. It's still far too early to dig too deep into the 2026 draft, but if the Bills hit on the majority of their picks, it would be logical to assume they'll target more offensive players next year. While that's expected, it would be surprising to see them go with an interior offensive lineman, which is the route ESPN's Matt Miller takes. Miller has Buffalo using the final pick in Round 1 on Florida center Jake Slaughter.

Jets-Packers Get Surprising Trade Idea To Bring $3.5 Million WR To New York. It's been one of the central questions of the New York Jets' offseason: Who will be the second wide receiver behind Garrett Wilson? Wilson has three straight 1,000-yard seasons to begin his career despite highly volatile quarterback play. The Jets are hoping Justin Fields, who hasn't established himself as a quality starter in his first four years in the league, can unlock his talent in New York and remove that volatility from the equation. It would take a ton of pressure off Wilson, Fields, head coach Aaron Glenn, and offensive coordinator Tanner Engstrand if the Jets had a steady WR2 to rely on in their offense.

Yes, Herbert has posted some gaudy statistics over the course of his five-year NFL career, but he actually has sort of stagnated in some areas, and his 0-2 playoff record has been a major source of contention in debate circles. Now entering his sixth NFL season, Herbert is facing some pretty stiff pressure, especially with rather lofty expectatiosn for the Jim Harbaugh-led Chargers heading into 2025. Former NFL quarterback and current Bleacher Report analyst Kurt Benkert recently put together a list of players who are facing prove-it years this coming campaign, and perhaps not surprisingly, Herbert's name was front and center.
