The Cincinnati Bengals’ neanderthalic owner Mike Brown shuffles around in a cave strewn with excrement, bones and viscera, dressed in a gray and ragged pelt of some big striped cat, gnawing on the greasy thigh of a gray seahawk dead some three or four days now and starting to rot. He roots in his own […]

Given that it was Halloween last night, I dressed up as my hero. No I wasn’t Obama, no I wasn’t Bono, no I wasn’t Tim Tebow. While all are world renowned heroes I decided to be my personal hero Andrew Luck! If you had the pleasure of tuning into Stanford vs. USC Saturday night he […]

Okay, so maybe the parade was already in the works… but it was for the team playing about half a mile south on Broadway. That being said, after watching and analyzing them through six games, what the St. Louis Rams accomplished on Sunday against the New Orleans Saints seemed about as likely as the Cardinals […]

For most of the season, I have ranked the New England Patriots as the best team in the AFC, and they are except for a few things: they can’t defend the pass, they can’t defend the run, aren’t very good at tackling period, oh and unless the opponents are lining up seven defensive backs, they […]

In a huge game for both teams, it was the Eagles who dominated this game from start to finish. Thanks to the shiftiness of shady McCoy and strong O Line play from the Eagles, Dallas wasn’t able to stop […]

This is just one sign of how thoroughly the Dallas Cowboys offense was submarined by the Philadelphia Eagles defense: it took 53 minutes and 30 seconds of game time before Dez Bryant caught his first pass. By that time, the score was 34-7, the refs had put away their yellow laundry, and the only enemy […]

New England Patriots 17, Pittsburgh Steelers 25 The Steelers came out of the gate and punched the Patriots in the mouth. The Patriots trailed the whole way, and they were never able to mount a comeback. When they finally cut the lead to six points late in the game, they couldn’t get an immediate stop […]

Rapid-fire live blog of the early action, featuring reactions from the TGS writers. Minnesota @ Carolina Vikes with an early 7-0 lead off a Cam Newton fumble Carolina not even bothering to try and establish a run game. Deangelo Williams is terrible. But Cam still play-faking and creating holes in secondary. Right out of the […]

I admit to totally sucking at Halloween. I never plan a costume, never decorate the house, barely remember to go out and buy candy for the kids to steal off my front porch. If a bunch of friends sucks me into going to a party, I end up frantically searching the wreckage of the costume […]

Cam Newton. Andy Dalton. Blaine Gabbert. Christian Ponder. All four are rookie quarterbacks taken in either the first or the second round of the 2011 NFL Draft. They are also all now starting for their respective teams. Jake Locker will move in and start as soon as Matt Hasselbeck goes down with a kink in […]
