What on earth is Paul George thinking?
We look at this game from a fantasy football perspective and consider the players from both sides that should be placed in the lineup or benched.
The Ray Rice debacle is just the latest of missteps by NFL commissioner Goodell.
There's plenty of drama surrounding the Ravens right now.
Solomon Wilcots may have had one season in the black and yellow, but he's an expert on all things football and he took the time to weigh in on this Thursday's match-up between the Pittsburgh Steelers and Baltimore Ravens. Amid numerous controversial stories, there is still football to be played and games to be won. Week two starts with the Ravens and Steelers in an AFC North divisional match-up.
Goodell maintains no one in the league office saw the elevator tape until Monday.
The Ravens are planning an exchange for Ray Rice jerseys.
It's a creepy shot of Rice following Janay Palmer into the elevator.
"If your intentions were to ... take all happiness away, you've succeeded on so many levels," Janay Palmer wrote.
Here is how players, sports pros and regular folks reacted to Ray Rice's suspension on Twitter.
Ray Rice's time in Baltimore is over.
The video has led to more criticism of Rice's two-game suspension being too lenient.
It seems we've jumped into the pool of relativism since we got wind of Josh Gordon's season-long suspension for marijuana use. You have the indignant faction that can't believe someone who smokes weed gets a year while Ray Rice skates with a two-game suspension
There are now stiffer penalties for all sorts of off-the-field incidents.
"I didn't get it right," Roger Goodell wrote of punishment for Ray Rice.
If the Roger Goodell wants to tout safety, there's an obvious move to make here.
The Carolina Panthers cut the face of the franchise, Steve Smith, and let the only other three wide receivers on the roster that caught a pass last season leave as free agents. Tight end Greg Olsen is the only proven receiver returning from last season's squad. Olsen should be Cam Newton's favorite target this season.
The Ravens made huge strides to improve what turned out to be a putrid offense in 2013. But one of the few bright spots on the offensive side of the ball was Marlon Brown. An undrafted rookie from Georgia with a lot to prove, and loads of potential to do just that.
"It has to be consistent with other cases," Roger Goodell says. "And it was in this matter."
No matter what Ray Rice said yesterday, it can't change what he did or the near-universal perception that aristocrats get more chances than we do. But Rice made one refreshing statement: His wife could do no wrong.
Silence can be golden sometimes.
In addition to working on memorizing new plays, making improvements and focusing on their skill sets - these guys are also taking in nature. From the mountains to the sea, these teams weren't just getting their workout on, they're training in some of the most scenic places in the U.S.
This needs to stop.
How, again, are you only suspended two games for hitting a woman?
Ray Rice allegedly struck his then-fiancee Janay unconscious in February.
