Before we start, I want to point out that if you’re a fighting game player, especially a good one, most of this will be functionally useless to you. The information I present here and the consequences of that information are something that most experienced players will more or less have…

Whether or not winning was or is caused by quarterback play specifically, pro football teams tend to stick with quarterbacks they win with, or really even just that they’ve won with in the past, a loop the Ravens would end up stuck in a few years down the road. If…

If you want to see just how deeply pervasive the oldheaded, jock-centric view of football is in the NFL and the media that covers it, look no further than the panel of players covering the Super Bowl on the season finale of Inside The NFL. You can find it on…
