Quarterback Drew Brees and wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald headline the list of modern era finalists for the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
With Drew Brees reportedly set to retire this offseason, Tom Brady made sure to spend some extra time with his fellow quarterback after the Bucs beat the Saints in the NFC Divisional Round.
What Tom Brady is doing is beyond the scope of human understanding. What other conclusion could possibly account for the sheer nonchalance or even outright exasperation that a 43-year-old quarterback not only survived an NFL season but has somehow made it to the penultimate weekend of the year?
Tom House is a former MLB pitcher and a throwing expert who has worked with people like Nolan Ryan, Tom Brady and Drew Brees. Now, he wants to change the face of youth sports with a new app called Mustard.
Drew Brees apologized Thursday for comments that were "insensitive and completely missed the mark" when he repeated his opposition to former 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick's kneeling during the national anthem in 2016 to protest police brutality toward people of color.
Jimmy Garoppolo passed for 349 yards and four touchdowns, Robbie Gould kicked a 30-yard field goal as time expired and the San Francisco 49ers pulled out a 48-46 victory over the New Orleans Saints on Sunday.
The Drew Brees-led Saints should overpower a Panthers team reliant on the rushing of Christian McCaffrey and desperate to stay in the playoff race.
There are several notable players that could become unrestricted free agents come March 14th, including several big-name quarterbacks.
The Saints and Panthers can still contend for the playoffs in a diminished NFC South. But both teams need a win Thursday.
The game at Levi's Stadium on Sunday between the San Francisco 49ers and the New Orleans Saints went down just as most suspected: The great Saints offense shredded the poor 49ers defense, and on the other side of the ball, the bad San Francisco offense couldn't do enough against the ugly New Orleans defense.
For 31 seasons, the New Orleans Saints and the San Francisco 49ers played each other every year as NFC West Division rivals, and while the teams' fortunes were quite different for most of those seasons, there were still some very memorable games.
This is just what the 1-6 San Francisco 49ers do not need coming off a bye week: The New Orleans Saints offense is coming to town. Fresh off a win over the Seattle Seahawks, the Saints are flying high right now through the air.
The NFC South is the focus of Thursday Night Football this week as the New Orleans Saints take on the undefeated Atlanta Falcons.
After their 24-13 loss to the Raiders Sunday, the 49ers playoff hopes are slim with three games to play.
The 49ers knew that this week was going to be a tough test. The Saints were on a roll and at home, but San Francisco played well in all phases and survived an overtime thriller.
This wasn't a pretty game from San Francisco's perspective. But in the face of desperation, beauty is only skin deep.
The 49ers hit the road this week to take on the New Orleans Saints. New Orleans started slow but has turned it around and will look to keep their winning streak alive. San Francisco has lost two straight and face a must win.
The Saints are coming off their best game of the year after hammering Green Bay 44-23. However, they have not won a road game this year. The Panthers are hoping to continue that trend, and they will be bringing back a familiar face in running back DeAngelo Williams.
Thursday night's game between the Colts and Texans featured two of the top NFL players on both sides of the ball, according to John Madden.
Meet the NFL players you need to follow this football season.
It's a poorly-kept secret that the Seattle Seahawks don't mind taking a penalty flag or two for pass interference or defensive holding in exchange for five or six no-calls on borderline plays. Supposedly, the NFL will be cracking down on physical play in the defensive backfield. If true-and that's a big if-it could mean even bigger numbers for the quarterbacks.
The Oakland Raiders signed former Green Bay Packers receiver James Jones to a three year deal Monday.
It may not be the Beast Quake, but Marshawn Lynch had another great game against New Orleans in the Playoffs as Seattle was able to outlast the Saints 23-15 and advance to the NFC Conference Finals next weekend.
The New Orleans Saints played a much better game on defense as they faced off with the Seattle Seahawks this time, but there were plenty of other problems. It was a hard-fought effort and a really good season, but the road woes have got to stop.
