Chargers Release LaDainian Tomlinson: Where’s He Headed?
After a long, brilliant career in San Diego, where LaDainian Tomlinson wrote the Chargers rushing record book in a fashion that may never be duplicated, the future Hall of Famer was finally released. The fact is, LT and the Chargers were dancing around his age, declining play, and contract for the past two seasons. But [...]
2010 Free Agency: Top 10 Running Backs
It’s a wild place out there in the current free agency realm, but somebody has to make sense of it. There are more capable running backs available on the market than you’d think, and with Jamal Lewis added to the mix (unless he retires), the field just got a little fatter. Now, that doesn’t mean [...]
NFL Championship Week: Picking the Super Bowl
This is what it comes down to. We have the top two teams that pulled at our heart-strings almost all season, even flat-out telling us they’d try for 16-0 (Thank you, New Orleans), and still delivering themselves into the playoffs with the top seed in their respective conferences. Yes, you know them and read about [...]
Brett Favre Proves Doubters Wrong, Even in Loss
Yes, the Minnesota Vikings have dropped three of their last four, all on the road, and are staring a Wild Card match right in the face. They were 10-1, Favre and the offense was clicking, and this team was thinking Super Bowl. But then, as so many Favre-haters had predicted, the previously unbeatable Favre began [...]
CJ2K Watch (Week 16): History well within Johnson’s reach
Christmas was anything but kind to the Tennessee Titans, as their playoff hopes were crushed by the visiting San Diego Chargers, who won their 10th straight with Friday night’s 42-17 rout in Nashville. However, even though the Titans don’t have more to play for besides a .500 finish (which is an astounding feat in itself), [...]
NFL Fantasy Start and Sit Week 16: Favre and the Vikings Should Get Back on Track
Most leagues are gone and forgotten by this time of the NFL season, but somewhere out there, fantasy football still reigns in the hearts of fierce competitors. And for those mighty few that set their line-ups in a frenzy and in great worry, we here at The Red Zone Report are still working hard to [...]
NFL Week 16 Preview: Five Things to Watch For
Last week we saw the New Orleans Saints finally fall, while the Indianapolis Colts extended their record to 14-0, and now stand as the only undefeated team in the league. We’re also getting closer to the possibility of Chris Johnson reaching the 2,000-yard plateau, which only adds to the AFC playoff race, as Johnson’s team, [...]
Don’t Kill the Messenger: Week 15 Fantasy Start & Sit Review
After two questionable weeks in our Fantasy Football Start/Sit Column, we’ve finally turned it around (just as we promised) and delivered a solid record in our player picks for Week 15. And we weren’t just a “little” right this week, folks. We hit it big with Tony Romo and Joe Flacco as starts, as well [...]
State Of The Vikings: All Is Well In Minnesota
The title (as most are) can be deceiving. “All” may not be well in Minnesota. After all, the Vikings are coming off of two ugly road losses in their past three games, both of which their offense has failed top 17 points, and has executed extremely poorly on third downs. But aside from that, yes, [...]
NFL Quick Hits (Nov. 12th): Clinton Portis ruled out for Sunday, T.O. misses pracice agan, Jamal Lewis lashes out, and more
Justin Gage Out With Fractures in Back He hasn’t technically been ruled out yet, but this is as close as it gets without confirmation. Gage reportedly suffered multiple fractures in his back after a very impressive catch against the 49ers last week. While the catch made him a hero for a day, the fall may [...]
