Four days after he caught three touchdown passes for the Green Bay Packers against the Minnesota Vikings, Adams went back to work almost immediately Thursday night against the host San Francisco 49ers.

Continue readingSizing up the NFC North: Who’s surprising, disappointing and more
Has anything really changed in the NFC North? The Green Bay Packers are still dominating, and the Chicago Bears still have quarterback issues.

Continue readingJudging Week 1 NFL overreactions: Cam Newton is back, the Eagles are doomed and more
It’s probably taking things too far to say that the Patriots have managed to revamp their entire offense around Cam Newton in two months. It’s probably way too soon to say that Newton looks just like his old MVP self and that the rest of the league made a horrible miscalculation in letting him sit […]
