Jaworski out as a booth commentator

The news that I’ve been waiting for a couple of years now has finally been passed down. Ron Jaworski will no longer be calling Monday Night Football games for ESPN. ESPN says that Jaworski has signed a five year contract extension that will place him on other programming, and luckily, off of calling games live […]

Burning question: do the Buffalo Bills resign Stevie Johnson?

The lockout has ended and the Buffalo Bills are ready to play some football. The Bills come out of the gates faster than a v10 engine with a 3-0 start including a win against the bullies of the AFC East the Patriots. A tough loss against the Bengals put them at 3-1 but they were […]

Burning question: do the Denver Broncos commit to the read-option?

The year of the Tebow. This is likely how the season that just wrapped up will go down in history. The Packers had a great run going, but then they ran into the Chiefs of all teams. A few other players emerged as stars, but no one came close to capturing the collective imagination of […]

Five storylines to watch this offseason

With the bright lights of the Super Bowl dying down, we turn our attention to the long NFL offseason, which won’t end until teams start reporting for training camp in late July. Here are 5 questions that warrant your attentions this offseason. 1. What kind of deal is waiting for Peyton Manning once he reaches […]

Burning question: who do the Bengals target with 1st round picks?

Last year, the Cincinnati Bengals were in a complete state of chaos. Their franchise quarterback, Carson Palmer, was refusing to return to the team, even threatening retirement if he was not traded. It was unclear how their defense would stand up in 2011, and their offense seemed completely devoid of talent. Fast forward one year […]

Welcome back Randy Moss

According to Mike Florio, Randy Moss wants back in the NFL. Are we surprised? Not even a little. Frankly, I was shocked when he retired. That along with the historic fall of Terrell Owens produced a quiet season in 2011 from the shenanigans point of view, but it seems that 2012 will be a different […]

Star Wars, NFL style!

This weekend nerds (including myself) around the world will be headed back to the theatre for Star Wars. Star Wars episode one is back in theatres this weekend but this time new and improved and in 3D. Although everyone and their weird friend who dresses up like Chewbacca considers the Phantom Menace a huge disappointment, […]

Anatomy of a hail mary

Considering how close the Patriots’ last gasp shot at the endzone was to being the greatest play in NFL history, I think it’s time that we break down just what it takes to successfully complete a hail Mary. To start, there are two types of hail Mary plays. First up is the straight catch. In […]

The trap of mediocrity

The Indianapolis Colts are in the best position they could have dreamed of as they near the end of the Manning era. Go ahead and let that sink in. Yes, Peyton Manning’s inability to play a down this season was the best thing that could have happened to the Indianapolis Colts for more than one […]

Chad Ochocinco to change name back to “Johnson”

Common, all of you are secretly wishing you had the gall to change your name to something you love. I personally would change my name to Shane Macbook if I had the stones for it. Then again, I would probably have to worry about Apple suing me too. Well, it was a thought. One of […]

Thoughts on 2013 Super Bowl odds

True, it may be early to begin asking who will be next year’s Super Bowl winner, but that’s not going to stop Vegas. The odds of winning next year’s big game are out, and there’s some striking oddities. Let’s take a closer look. New England Patriots 5-1 It’s often said that the Super Bowl loser […]

Manning should be released

At the end of the day, the NFL is a business. That’s the mindset that all 32 NFL teams operate under. They are running a business. Fans don’t seem to get that. Peyton Manning has spent his entire career with the Indianapolis Colts. He’s knocked down records once thought impervious to assault, and winning at […]

Steelers land Todd Haley

The vacancy left by the departure of Steelers’ former offensive coordinator, Bruce Arians, has been filled by none other than Todd Haley. Haley hasn’t been in the news since accusing the Kansas City Chiefs of producing a toxic atmosphere of paranoia, going so far as to worry about his office phone being tapped by the […]
