Mike Wallace could be in for a rough season

On paper and on media outlets everywhere, the Miami Dolphins seem to be one of the teams in the AFC ready to make the jump from mediocrity to relevance. Ryan Tannehill seems poised for a breakout year, and much of that speculation is based around the acquisition of receiver Mike Wallace. Unfortunately for the Dolphins, […]

Jaguars invent new offensive position for Denard Robinson

A running joke that Jaguars rookie Denard Robinson will be used as an "offensive weapon" seems to be taken rather literally by the team. What used to be a joke has become reality, as the young player is listed as an "OW" on the Jaguars' roster, presumably meaning "offensive weapon." Robinson's number is in line […]

Is the Stanley Cup better than the Lombardi Trophy?

For NFL fans, hockey represents the only major sport that covers much of the offseason that involves significant hitting. That's part of the draw of hockey as well as the NFL.

Geno Smith thinks he’s making major progress

The Jets are in a difficult position. They're head coach needs to win now, which would seem to indicate that Mark Sanchez has a good chance of starting over Geno Smith. In the long run, however, it would seem more beneficial to get Geno Smith up to speed sooner rather than later. If what Smith […]

Who’s the most enigmatic team in the NFL?

Part of my job involves trying to figure out which teams are rising, which are falling and which are staying about the same. In most cases, that's a relatively simple procedure. Will the Patriots be a Super Bowl contender? Where will the Raiders finish the season? Are the Packers still a great offense? Then again, […]

NFC West: June stock watch

San Francisco 49ers, FLAT: The 49ers are a favorite to win their division, and many think they have what it takes to make it back to the Super Bowl.

Peyton Manning is ready for a breakout year

The title says it all in a stupid way. Peyton Manning is ready for a breakout year, as if he hasn't had a number of "breakout" years. Still, Manning showed us last year that he's as good as ever, and in Denver, he has as many options as he's ever had. That's why this breakout […]

AFC West: June stock watch

Denver Broncos, FLAT: There's still no reason to believe the Broncos won't be Kings of the AFC West for the foreseeable future.

The Washington Redskins will be relying on Robert Griffin III, and his knee, to take them back to the playoffs in 2013.

NFC South: June stock watch

Atlanta Falcons, FLAT: When you're at the top of your division, there's no where to go but down. Luckily for the Falcons, they're holding steady as the class of the NFC South.
