Let's take a look at five NFL rookies that will shine this season.
C'mon Blue, let the boys play!
Word dripped down this week that Jim Kelly's cancer is gone. But what does that mean? Is it gone today only to make its interminable, terminal march back to his enervated frame? Or is it really gone, as in he won?
The Minnesota Vikings have a long tradition of having very good defensive tackles. They drafted Sharrif Floyd in the first round of the 2013 draft in hopes that he can continue the trend.
Good leaders lead by example ... flipping birds isn't one.
Johnny Manziel fell a lot further than anyone would have expected at the NFL Draft, but he landed right where the Cleveland Browns wanted him to fall. Now, the focus needs to stay on the field instead of off it, and Manziel could up bringing an excitement that the Browns have not seen in decades.
The 49ers' acquisition of wide receiver Stevie Johnson is a win for both the team and player. San Francisco gets what they hope is the final missing piece to their passing game, while Johnson gets the chance to return home and not only play for a contender, but play in a market where his talents will not go un-noticed.
The Brooklyn Bolts will play at MCU Park, the home of the minor-league baseball Cyclones, a Class A farm team of the Mets.
Let's take a look at who the five worst teams will be heading into the 2014 NFL season.
If Johnny Football wins Cleveland's QB competition, he could find himself on the ground, eating turf. Take it from Boomer, who knows a little something about playing in the NFL.

Then Craig had some nice things to say about his old buddy Jim 'Hello Friends' Nantz before ripping into the NFL Network's Rich Eisen.
It's been a long-time since the New England Patriots had a shutdown cornerback on their roster, and they finally have one in former New York Jets star Darrelle Revis.
Jeremy Maclin is not going to have to be Jerry Rice or Terrell Owens. He merely needs to be a receiver for Nick Foles, while the tight ends help chip in the rest of the production in the passing game.
Coach Tom Coughlin would never criticize his franchise quarterback, but he knows that there has to be changes with Eli Manning and the offense.
Although the performance against Indy has led to widespread consternation about Manning and his first-unit group, one must understand that McAdoo is keeping things under wraps.
Check out the priceless things to do this week in New York City, week of August 18th-24th.
New York trailed 26-0 early in the fourth, but the Colts couldn't hold on.
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.
So it is with my jaded view of the world that I address the Ben Roethlisberger - Emmanuel Sanders feud. Sanders said that his new quarterback, Peyton Manning, is a much better leader than his old quarterback, Big Ben. And thus the verbal jousting began, feathers flexed, talons out.
In-season roster management is key to winning your fantasy football league, but the draft goes a long way towards determining the champ. Value is the most important word when it comes to the draft. Here are a few tips to stay a few moves ahead of your competitors.
The Jets are hoping to find a superfan -- or superfans -- to keep their iconic chant alive. But that wasn't Plan A, according to "Fireman Ed" Anzalone.
Hobbled by injuries, the Indianapolis Colts hope (wide receiver) Hakeem Nicks can contribute with the type of production that catapulted the New York Giants to a Super Bowl championship in 2012.
Let's take a look at exactly why Johnny Manziel needs to start in week 1 for the Cleveland Browns.
A Bills fan group has uncovered documents that suggest rocker Jon Bon Jovi's Toronto-based prospective ownership group has plans to relocate the franchise north of the border.
