In 2011, we witnessed one of the best teams over the past decade completely fall apart. The Indianapolis Colts went through the perfect storm of injuries and salary cap woes in route to the first pick of the 2012 NFL draft. The Colts have put themselves in an unique situation, and they’re just beginning to […]

In an interview with the Tampa Bay Times on Thursday, Warren Sapp broke his silence about his bankruptcy filing, trying to set the record straight. “Do you think I wanted to declare bankruptcy? Do you think if there was any other way possible I would have done it? It was either this or go to […]

Yesterday, I addressed how I thought teams should handle off-field problems of players and prospects. In that piece, I mentioned that Janoris Jenkins would likely be the poster-boy for prospects with potential character issues. It would seem that I made an accurate assessment. It was reported by Albert Breer that Jenkins continued his drug use […]

Vince Young’s career has been wildly up and down. In his 5 seasons with the Titans, Young started the majority of Tennessee’s games 4 of those seasons. Still, he had a rift with former Titans head coach Jeff Fisher, and he displayed far too much emotional instability when he was presented with adversity to be […]

As the NFL draft approaches, you’ll begin to hear that one prospect is a great person on and off the field, and you’ll be hearing that another prospect is sliding down teams’ boards due to off-field issues.

I used to like Drew Brees. He genuinely seemed like a good guy, but his actions and opinions since last year’s lockout have led me in the opposite direction. Despite a huge amount of evidence to the contrary, Drew Brees continues to insist that the Saints have been the target of improper punishment by the […]

The print news/magazine industry is in poor shape, and it’s a dying industry. That’s why I, along with nearly everyone else with a computer and an internet connection, was shocked when the NFL introduced its official print magazine late last year, and it comes as no surprise that the magazine is making a quiet exit. […]

Every now and then, I have the pleasure of stumbling across an exceptionally well written piece that clears the air around an issue and let’s me see the problem for what it is. Enter Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk. In the piece linked above, Florio essentially concludes that Williams may be able to redeem […]

I’m a firm believer that stability and sound decision making will eventually breed success. Apparently, that’s the Cincinnati Bengals’ view as well. Marvin Lewis took over as the Bengals head coach in 2003. Since that date, Lewis has led the Bengals to just three playoff appearances and zero playoff victories. In 9 seasons as the […]
