Steve Tasker slips ‘sh*t’ into commentary in Colts, Titans game

http://youtube.com/watch?v=WeY0sHFBjZk Much of the time, TV announcers and commentators let expletives fly in the heat of the moment.

Still, we'll give him a […]

The Panthers need Cam Newton to become a leader

The Panthers are a franchise in complete disarray. So far this season, their quarterback has had episodes of showing a severe lack of mental toughness, they've fired their general manager, and now their head coach is publicly stating the team is without a leader, not that it surprises anyone to hear it. Rivera said during […]

Heath Miller an unsung hero in Pittsburgh

When talk around the league about the elite tight ends the names Jimmy Graham, Rob Gronkowski, Aaron Hernandez, Vernon Davis, and Antonio Gates and soon to be Hall of Famer Tony Gonzalez always come up. However there is one tight end that never quite makes the list. Heath Miller who has had a successful yet […]

Chris Johnson still isn’t back to his old self

For the first time in a long time, Chris Johnson turned heads this weekend in the Titans' victory over the Buffalo Bills. Johnson resembled the "CJ2K" that we remember in route to 195 rushing yards and two touchdowns. It was a great game, but don't expect that to be the new-old norm for Chris Johnson. […]

Maurice Jones-Drew does not have Lisfranc injury

According to Adam Schefter, Maurice Jones-Drew will not be sidelined for the rest of the season, as the running back does not have the dreaded Lisfranc injury that would have required surgery, putting him on the bench for the remainder of the season.

NFL week 7 rock stars

After a busy week of football we are now basically at the midpoint of the season. Some teams have disappointed and some teams have impressed.

Matthew Stafford cleans up Hairy Dawg’s mess

http://youtube.com/watch?v=RLp3F_xnen4 Matthew Stafford's first big hit with an ESPN commercial came with his player of the week spot. I'm not sure his new commercial with the sports giant tops his previous ad, but it certainly gave us a laugh on an otherwise slow Monday afternoon. Here's to hoping Matthew Stafford continues to work with ESPN.

General Managers on the hot seat

Texans’ win illustrates change in culture

So far this weekend, every game in the NFL has been decided by a touchdown or less, with just one exception. The Texans bounced back from an embarrassing loss to the Packers by thoroughly embarrassing someone else. The Texans beat the Ravens earlier this afternoon an astounding 43-13. The key to the beat down was […]

Steelers short on running backs with Mendenhall, Redman out

For many years, the Steelers were known as one of the most smash-mouth football teams in the league. Since that time, the Steelers have adapted to the "new" NFL by passing the ball more and running less. Still, it's difficult to be successful in the NFL without some sort of running game, and the Steelers' […]
