Hey Folks,
The NFL Draft is often a game of high-stakes chess, where a single unconventional move can redefine a franchise's future. Ravens GM Eric DeCosta did exactly this, shattering an 18-year-old team tradition with a selection that left analysts scratching their heads. While the pick initially raised eyebrows, DeCosta has since pulled back the curtain on a deeper strategic shift quietly taking hold across the league.
DeCosta opens up about the team’s draft strategy after taking a different approach to building the roster.
Men, You've Been Misinformed
Men's skin is about 25% thicker than women's, but thicker skin doesn't mean better aging. It means delayed collapse. For years, your skin looks resilient. Then collagen declines, and when it does, it drops hard: deeper wrinkles, heavier under-eye bags, more dark spots showing up all at once.
Most men were never taught to get ahead of this. Women were. And by the time the signs show up, you're playing catch-up.
Particle Face Cream was built precisely for this. One 6-in-1 formula engineered for men's skin — reduces eye bags, dark spots, and wrinkles, restores firmness, hydrates deeply, and revives dull tone. No complicated routine. Over 1,000,000 men already use it. Try it risk-free with a 30-day money-back guarantee.

On September 21, 1970, the NFL debuted Monday Night Football with a game between the Cleveland Browns and the New York Jets. The Browns won 31-21. Before this launch, professional football was primarily broadcast on Sunday afternoons.
The league and ABC introduced a three-man commentary booth and increased the number of cameras to create a broadcast style that differed from standard daytime coverage.
The game drew 35% of the night's television audience, proving that football was a viable product for prime-time programming. This shift moved the NFL into a new commercial market and established a permanent Monday night schedule.
The success of this 1970 opener changed the league's broadcasting strategy and remains a foundational moment in NFL history.
