"If there's a book that you want to read, but it hasn't been written yet, then you must write it." These words by Toni Morrison sum up why I got into writing after being an avid reader for most of my childhood. After juggling with words for years, it still comes as a surprise how much there is to write and read. Despite being a software engineer, the will to keep on writing got me involved with poetry and later content creation. 

The additional desire for storytelling and my history of athletics paved the way for EssentiallySports. With the dream to return to my athletic roots and absorb as much knowledge as I can, I am grateful to keep on learning new things every day about various sports.

Despite being more of an off-court reader, the thrill that game coverage instilled within me got me more involved with the NFL. Even though the stories revolving around the NFL are very intriguing, the hype and energy of the games is the literal cherry on top for me. When I am not immersed in NFL gameplays and off-court stories, I am usually lost in writing poems, cooking, and playing with colors.

Javon Baker might just be the New England Patriots’ [https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/new-england-patriots-2/] new fire starter. While the Patriots are firing from all cylinders to save their dwindling dynasty. And now without Bill Belichick at the helm; Robert Kraft and HC Jerod Mayo are working like Trojans to make a comeback. And fueling this fire is their latest recruit UCF Knights Wide Receiver. Minutes after being drafted by the New England Patriots with pick no.110, Baker went live on Instagram and amped up the Patriots’ mojo for naming this NFL season to themselves. JAVON BAKER: REVIVING THE PATRIOTS’ LOST MOJO Patriots reporter Zac Ventola took to social media platform ‘X’ to share Javon Baker’s statement from his Instagram live. Ventola’s post read, “New #Patriots [https://twitter.com/hashtag/Patriots?src=hashtag_click] WR Javon Baker on Instagram Live: ‘It took too long. I’ll show y’all a**…it took too long’ He’s ready to prove everybody wrong.” Baker, 22, spent his first two seasons at Alabama before transferring to UCF for his last two collegiate seasons, earning First-team All-Big 12 honors in 2023. In 46 career games, Baker recorded 117 receptions for 2,051 yards and 13 touchdowns. Whether Baker will be the one to make the Patriots rise from their ashes remains to be seen. 

Javon Baker might be just a rookie in the New England Patriots, but that doesn't mean he won't make his doubters pay.

They retained the tricorne hat in the logo and provide a side profile of what seems to be the minuteman.? The new logo kept the colors of the national flag and has red stripes on the left, which gives the impression as though it is flying in the wind. Certain fans regard it as a &#8216;Flying Elvis&#8217;. 7 years later, they darkened the blue on the logo and it remains on their jersey as of the 2020 NFL season.?

<h3>NFL</h3>
<h3>History</h3>
In August 1920, representatives from four states: Akron, Canton, Cleveland, and Dayton, held a meeting and formed the American Professional Football Conference (APFC) to improve footballing standards in the country. A month later, they formed the American Professional Football Association (APFA) and played a league with 14 teams. In 1922, they changed the name to the National Football League (NFL).

In 1960, a new professional league, the American Football League (AFL) started as a competition against the NFL. After six years, in 1966, the two leagues announced a merger that would take effect in 1970. During the four years between the announcement and the actual merger, the leagues started playing a Championship game which was called The Super Bowl. Since then, the two leagues have been recognized as two separate conferences within the same league, the NFL.
<h3>Participating teams</h3>
There are 32 teams in the NFL divided equally into two conferences: National Football Conference (NFC) and the American Football Conference (AFC). Each conference is further divided into 4 divisions: East, North, South, and West, with each division containing four teams.
