It is tough to get a read on the hysteria surrounding Matt Flynn as we near the annual free agency bonanza. The former 7th round pick is all of a sudden the darling of the dance, with teams apparently lining up to give him suitcases full of money. How did a guy go from being […]

http://youtube.com/watch?v=goiWcak1FXg?wmode=Opaque New York Giants 37, Green Bay 20 – Betterman by Pearl Jam It feels a little like 2007. It was always known around the league that if there was one team that matched up well against the Packers it was the Giants. The G-Men have the pass rush it takes to slow down the […]

A playoff system is not designed to match up the two best teams. It’s designed to match up the two most complete teams. That’s largely the case this year in the NFL. Next weekend, the New England Patriots will host the Baltimore Ravens, and the San Francisco 49ers will host the New York Giants. With […]

I could sit here and tell you I saw this coming. Even though I did pick the Giants to upset the Packers, I didn’t imagine or even dream it would happen in such a dominating manner, but it did. The Packers will be forced to wonder what could have been. For the Giants, the win […]

Even the most devout Texans fan had to question how far rookie quarterback TJ Yates could carry them into the playoffs. The answer? To the Baltimore 38 yard line at the two-minute warning of the AFC Divisional Championship game. Friend of TGS Patty Hsieh of The Pigskin Arch made a bold prediction: the Houston Texans […]

Momentum is a mighty hammer in the playoffs. Once it swings down on you, it is awfully hard to recover. Momentum swung early for the Texans with a 60-yard return of the game-opening kickoff and a quick 3-0 lead. After that, though, it crashed down on the visiting team repeatedly, as Baltimore scored the game’s […]

The New York Giants (9-7) will face the Green Bay Packers (15-1) at Lambeau Field on Sunday and the Giants have a much better shot at winning than most people think. In fact, they could get to the NFC Championship game pretty easily if they simply exploit the Packers’ multiple weaknesses on defense. Does that […]

Recap at 6:45 pm, central time The San Francisco 49ers gave it their best shot in this matchup, but ultimately the high-powered New Orleans Saints were too much for the hard-hitting but offensively challenged Niners. The Saints gifted their opponents with the first 17 points of the game, scored on a total of five first […]

The score is 17-0 early in the second quarter of the game between the San Francisco 49ers and the New Orleans Saints, which in and of itself is not shocking. What is shocking is that the Niners are the team on top. Quite simply, the play of the 49ers defense is better than the offensive […]

Last week, the Denver Broncos shocked the football world by not only beating them, but beating them with Tim Tebow’s arm. The Steelers had the top ranked defense of the 2011 season, and they represented a unique challenge for the Broncos coaches and Tim Tebow. They rose to the challenge and pulled out a thrilling […]

Tim Tebow is more than a football player. He has become a worldwide cultural phenomenon. Evidence of that shows up on YouTube that has become the chronicle of trendy public focus. Naturally, he has spawned a collection of brilliant parody videos. Take, for example, how the Taiwanese explain that whole 316 thing. http://youtube.com/watch?v=rxF1VoJwFf4?wmode=Opaque Plenty more […]
