Cowboys win the NFC

Pickett to Eagles , Rams A. Donald retires, Rams sign Jimmy G. League investigates eagles and falcons
 
fields to steelers

For a sixth round pick (potentially turning to a 4th)

So Pitt gets rid of their former #20 pick and Mason Rudolph and ends up with a #11 pick in Fields and a 9X Pro-bowler and former SB Champ in Wilson to bring him up to speed.

And it didn't cost them hardly anything in the wash. The money is crazy low, unless Steelers pick up Fields' 5th year option; Denver's already paying all but a million of Wilson's salary. And they came out ahead in draft picks, too.

Khan artist is killing it. (Just have to see if they can get the completely altered team to gel.
 
Until proven otherwise, I'm blaming this on Yoko Swiftie:

NFL owners set to vote on wild new kickoff rule

The NFL's 32 owners are expected to vote on the fate of the kickoff at the Annual League Meeting, which is being held in Orlando thru March 26. If 24 of those owners vote to approve the proposed changes, then the kickoff will have a drastically different look in 2024.

...

Of the 22 players on the field for the play, 21 of them will be in the receiving team's territory. That number will break down like this for the kicking team:

  • Kicker will be by himself. The kicker will set up the ball at his own 35-yard line and after kicking it, he won't be able to cross midfield until the ball is in play. The ball will be considered in play if the returner catches it or if the ball hits the ground in the landing zone or if the ball gets to the end zone.
  • Coverage team will be lined up together. The other 10 players on the kicking team will be lining up at the receiving team's 40-yard line. Each player has to have at least one foot on the 40 before the play can start. Also, the kicking team has to have five players on each side of ball, so they won't be able to load up to one side.

As for the receiving team, their setup will be slightly different.
  • Most of the receiving team will be at the 35-yard line. The receiving team has a 5-yard setup zone that runs from its own 30 to its 35-yard line. Seven players from the receiving team must have their foot on the 35-yard line. The receiving team can also have two more players who are in the setup zone, but who aren't touching the 35-yard line. Those two players will be lined up outside the hashes.
  • Receiving team can have two returners. The receiving team can put one or two returners back to field the football, but if they decide to utilize just one returner, then the extra player will have to line up in the set-up zone between the 30- and 35-yard line.

Strange that this wasn't used in pre season to see how it works out. If it does what they say it will do, more kickoff returns, I'll be for that. My man Cordarrelle Pattersons stock just went up.

Pittsburgh signed him like 2 minutes after the rule change was announced.
 
Steelers pick up Aiyuk. They've probably made the best moves of any team this year.

About damned time... That rumor's been going on for weeks. The Kahn artist at it again!

ETA: Where did you see that? I'm checking the news and not seeing it yet.

Russell Wilson is said to be building bulk. I guess last season the lean thing didn't work? Shame he took a step down when he switched franchises
