Frank Gore rubs 49ers’ victory with smashed up Dolphins sweatshirt

After the Dolphins 2nd straight loss they assured themselves a fourth straight non-winning season, and sixth in seven years.

Perhaps the Dolphins need some of the confidence […]

NFL playoff races vs. bowl season

One of the great debates between football fans hinges around the competition between college football and the NFL for viewer dollars. Sure, many of us watch both brands of football, but at this point, the NFL reigns supreme. A big facet of that dominance may come from the way the NFL ends its season versus […]

Ravens not a lock for the AFC North crown just yet

At 9-3, the Ravens are the only AFC division leader not currently guaranteed a playoff birth, and looking at their schedule, it's conceivable that they could still be overtaken by the Pittsburgh Steelers as the AFC North's top team. In case you're now scratching your head, hear me out. The Ravens have a remarkably tough […]

Report: Roger Goodell considering replacing kickoffs

It's no secret that the NFL is attempting to limit high-speed collisions, especially as they pertain to kickoffs.

NFL’s new sack master: Can Aldon Smith break Strahan’s sack record?

Playing almost exclusively on 3rd downs last year he had a breakthrough rookie performance tallying 14 sacks, forcing 2 fumbles and even adding a safety to his belt.

Detroit won’t be an easy out for the Packers

This Sunday night, the Green Bay Packers host the Detroit Lions in a game that looks far simpler on paper than it will likely play out.

Jim Schwartz could be out in Detroit

The Lions entered 2012 with some quiet talk of a deep playoff run, and dare we say a Super Bowl appearance? After their nail-biting win over the Rams in week 1, things quickly headed south, and suddenly, Jim Schwartz's job seems anything but safe. The Lions sit at a miserable 4-8 following this weekend's collapse […]

Rex Ryan noncommittal about starting quarterback moving forward

If they didn't before this week, the Jets now have a full-blown quarterback controversy on their hands.
