Travis Kelce Plans to Return for ’25 Season
Travis Kelce plans to return for ’25 season. He says the following to ESPN.
“I’m coming back for sure.” Going to try to get to the best shape I’ve been this offseason and get back to the mountaintop. Got a real bad taste in my mouth with how I played in that last game and how I got the guys ready for battle.
“I can’t go out like that!!!!”
And this is off the heels of a confirmation by Chiefs general manager Brett Veach and personality Pat McAfee.
This is of kind unreal to put into perspective.
Veach goes on record to confirm the following then McAfee looks better than ESPN reporter Adam Schefter.
Since when did, McAfee overtake the responsibilities of Schefter? I digress, Veach wants Kelce more than anything after an abysmal Super Bowl loss and righteously after even surpassing Jerry Rice’s reception record.
That did not serve enough justice for the hair, outfit, Taylor Swift, camera film, and Heights podcast to release a statement with his brother Jason that the first butt kicking Super Bowl over his sibling just was not enough.
Let me be clear and explicit, Travis is one of the best tight ends to ever touch a football with over 1,000 receptions, 12,451 receiving yards by his understandable partner, Patrick Mahomes, and packing on fifth all-time receiving touchdowns (77).
But that is not all.
Travis has no misogyny and that is him. He loves Taylor Swift’s music albums. But, one thing that sets him apart from the rest is that he is a hustler from my point of view. He will come back, it is a matter of time.

Do Not Make the Travis Hunter Story Complicated
Travis Hunter is a two-way star out of Colorado University. He was highly recruited by coach Deion Sanders and played good enough to earn this year’s Heisman’s award.
Now what I am not understanding is why teams such as the Tennessee Titans (No.1) followed by the Cleveland Browns are making things sound complicated about Hunter? Browns GM Andrew Berry goes on to state that given the opportunity, Hunter will most likely play wide receiver and punt returner but that does not mean we should rule out the eligibility of Hunter’s abilities on both sides of the field.
Last year at Colorado, Hunter played 86.8 percent of offensive snaps for Colorado while on the defensive side, he performed 82.9% of reps. Just think about that, traveling back and forth, from play call to executional work.
Hunter has the ability to go the distance whether offense, defense, special teams or splitting it meticulously to start the season with the Tennessee Titans or Cleveland Browns.
The Titans coach Brian Callahan has said to be cautious but there is also the Cleveland Browns who have not been successful in finding a premier athlete such as Hunter and begging he does not get hurt. It could be a win unlike the column shows in Cleveland.
The NFL Draft Combine begins Thursday, February 27 and expect Travis Hunter to turn some scouts’ faces along the other likes of Abdul Carter, Tyler Warren, and Ashton Jeanty.

Are the Cowboys Unveiling ‘Too’ Much?
The Dallas Cowboys EVP Stephen Jones recently pointed out that the team plan to be ‘selectively aggressive.’
Cause for concern, you might ask?
Of course, when you consider the 2024 offseason moves such as Rico Dowdle, Stephon Gilmore, and Tyron Smith just to name a few.
Dowdle was a key cog in their offense but as for Smith and Gilmore. They did not succeed to have one of their most prime years in a Cowboys uniform.
As for the rookies, Tyler Guyton had a weak rookie season and will work with the new coaches on staff to deliver a redeemable and Marshawn Breeland seems to be a highlight reel, at least, waiting.
He accumulated an average PFF rating and put up decent pressure numbers to finish 2024.
But the main issue, once again lingers back to the mouth of the Jones’ family. If they just let the darn team go out and play football for one year or two, they might be on to some better traction.
Instead, poorly judged remarks at the wrong time enter a wrong phase of Cowboys football and the entire NFC East.

Is Cam Ward Geno Smith 2.0?
Cam Ward is a talented player. No doubt about it out of Miami U in fact most good players emerge out of MIA.
Regardless, what remains is how good and elusive speed wise Ward is going to be on the ground. He will translate to a big arm down the slot but what is most concerning is his track record of inconsistencies on the field with his delivery ala Geno Smith.
Geno Smith talked a good game in the past but like many of the quarterbacks that came before and after him is his ability to scramble and throw with accurate delivery of maturing.
The only difference between Ward and Smith is one can really scramble but the other can always plant feet first and throw without jeopardizing a side-arm.
Decision-making and mobility will ultimately decide the outcome of Ward as we enter the 2025 NFL Draft Combine and what is the most intriguing option is stability in the pocket.
Imagine a Cam having a multitude of ways of scanning the field. Well, that is not the case with Ward. He must stay un-throttled and play to his strengths.

Why Travis Hunter Headlines the NFL Combine List
Travis Hunter is the latest prospect to enter the hunt for the NFL Draft combine. Standing at 6 foot 1, 185 pounds, he has stood the test of time whether through Shaddeur Sanders shadow, Colorado’s program of training and scouting, or Deion, of course.
But, the main thing is Deion Sanders is no longer his coach entering this list of NFL Combine rejects and prospect knuckleheads. Hunter has the biggest smile, attachment to Colorado and now this list of what is to come.
Hunter comes at you like a bulldozer, you just do not see it. He presses at you, and then as time ages he becomes a threat in the open field with his elusive speed which will do the talking come time Combine.
We witnessed the Super Bowl and I do not think there has been this much excitement around a prospect following in quite sometime basically because he is the quintessential masterpiece that worked behind Shaddeur, first and foremost, and he is going to outshine, regardless and make the Combine become more meaningful in recent years.
Not the quarterback, they have failed, upset, and disappointed since Dan Marino, Tom Brady, and John Elway for example, and it is a crisis that Matthew Stafford and maybe a few other quarterbacks at the top of discussions this swirl or time of year tend to fall out of line of what it is today’s lineage.

Enough is Enough Kelce
Jason Kelce is the Philadelphia Eagles backbone. He has been to the very end. But, what is the ironic confusion of his brother? He just lost a Super Bowl.
Travis Kelce recorded 4 rec, 39 receiving yards in the championship game, and that explains something considering he did not soar as much in the regular season compared to prior.
His statistics have in fact been dropping much like the recent Super Bowl with Taylor Swift sobbing. Oops! 😤
I think I hit a red wall. Travis Kelce is set to retire. At age 35, he made a mockery, unlike Patrick Mahomes, proving heroics of recapturing Chiefs Kingdom its third consecutive title.
Jason Kelce, meanwhile, should not be a tweener here. He has every right to stick up for Travis but rest assured he is a ESPN analyst.
And a Philadelphia Eagle who does not take any slack for the effort Travis Kelce must provide in another press box suite to a possible 18-game successful season and moving on for coach Andy Reid who does nothing but munch at the bit and know Travis, Jason more than anyone well.

What are the Dallas Cowboys Miscasting
The Dallas Cowboys are the weak link, obviously. They have the highest-paid quarterback in the league, Mr. Dak Prescott, but that does not equate to league success. Take a look at Josh Allen. He won MVP like a scrambling chicken and still lost to Patrick Mahomes. I digress, the league is in anticipation of a new MVP and Super Bowl champion after the Philadelphia Eagles come back win to two years derailed by the Kansas City Chiefs.
The Cowboys, again, are the weak link because they are not striving. They, for instance, signed Ken Dorsey who was fired by the Buffalo Bills and has not had much success since coaching and developing Allen and helping Carolina to a Super Bowl. But, what is there to give that Brian Schoetinheimer is also facing pressure that he is not surrounded by all the tools and weapons going into year one of the plan or process.
Ken Dorsey scored the fewest points allowed given by the Cleveland Browns last year and that is an understatement as to what the Dallas Cowboys are defined by.
The Dallas Cowboys critically fuse history into their organization and why should the conversation always refer back to Jerry Jones and Stephen.
Jerry Jones is a sharp talker but he is not a poised go-getter at this stage of his owner career. It is quite simple. The Dallas Cowboys are a weak link and they must wake up after more than a couple of off-seasons of blowing things apart.
It is such Jimmy Johnson’s tears are perpetually watering over the unknown at Fox. The Cowboys always have a strong point. Their defense, but offensively they must collect the pieces and transcend the era and times people recall with Michael Irvin, Herschel Walker, Emmit Smith, and Troy Aikman.
I think the only exceptional Dallas talent in history on that precedented list is Tony Romo, which is why he works favorably at CBS. There are Dallas players that have to take a stand and it will not be Dak or some of the depleted offense.

Eagles are Eternally Super Bowl LIX Champions
The Philadelphia Eagles are eternally Super Bowl LIX champions. Nobody can take that away from them and neither AFC team can dethrone what they accomplished.
The Eagles bonafide a contender with the self-esteem panel of Kellen Moore and Vic Fangio. Together, they replaced Sean Desai and one other coordinator and became a resilient force in the NFL with components such as rookie Cooper Dejean, MIlton Williams, Jalen Carter, and more cast contributors.
In the Super Bowl, things got off to a hot pace with Dejean capturing a pick-six and making his mom proud from Pop Warner.
Milton Williams was the star of the game as he had to literally rush for the oxygen mask and provide leeway for what was tremendous four-man pressure by even Josh Sweat.
The offense compared to the Chiefs did not master what Patrick Mahomes could still formulate in the air but in the end, Hurts combined a solid game despite his doubters and threw mostly vertical to his favorite targets, Devonta Smith and AJ Brown.
It was an all-around team effort by the Eagles as Nick Bolton of Kansas City tried to reverse courses of the basic game plan and stop prominent Philadelphia MVP Saquon Barkley but most blitzes were executed wrongly and Travis Kelce dropped key passes to seal the game for Xavier Worthy, the key Chiefs star of the game, despite Mahomes heroic efforts.
We can all claim Mahomes is the best quarterback in the National Football League but the better team won. The Philadelphia Eagles outshined the landscape of Bourbon Street, celebrities, politicians, and featured athletes.
The stars aligned for mainly Jalen Hurts when it mattered most and Nick Sirriani goes home as the second Philadelphia Eagles head coach behind Doug Pederson to proudly hoist the trophy.

Eagles Lead at Halftime
Eagles are currently leading at halftime 24-0, over the Kansas City Chiefs, almost longer than Washington vs Denver, 25-0.
The Eagles got off to an impressive start via their turnovers most particularly the Cooper DeJean pick six. Pressure stuck to Patrick Mahomes as Milton Williams, Josh Sweat, and others got after the pressure.
There were several drops on the KC side and as Michael Strahan just said in my ear despite their early downfalls, Mahomes is made for crucial comeback defeating moments.
Kendrick Lamar performs at half and second will determine the outcome of Super Bowl 59 in New Orleans.
