He has all sorts of wacky nonsensical theories and will do anything for a story, especially in February. He also doesn't hide his bias. He led the charge against Burfict, took personal shots against Marvin Lewis, and always speaks glowingly about the Steelers.
The guy has lived his entire life in Steelers country and practiced law in Pittsburgh. It is what it is. I quit checking that site a couple years ago because I got tired of Florio on his soapbox, his political opinions and hot takes, etc. NFL trade rumors reports the facts and that's it. Way better site than PFT.
It's pretty comical, really. He runs a major network NFL news site, yet is so completely slanted toward one team that it might as well be ProStillerTalk. His crusade vs Burfict was laughable. He acted like the guy was a murderer.
What's also funny is the bias of Calcaterra in favor of another Cincinnati rival, ie the Cardinals, on the NBC baseball site.
Cincinnati sports fans are the deplorables of fandom on these sites, lol. Steeler nation and "the classiest fans in baseball" in St Louis are a higher caste.
