Posted By Kevin Roberts On Saturday, March 27th 2010. Under NFL, NFL Draft Tags: Alex Smith, Colt McCoy, Jimmy Clausen, NCAA Football, NFL Combine, NFL Draft, Sam Bradford

Two things have become apparent in scouting the quarterback position for the 2010 NF Draft: that all the top quarterbacks face some serious questions, and after Sam Bradford and Jimmy Clausen there is quite arguably a dramatic drop-off. However, in reference to Colt McCoy, when talking about pure ability and results, ... Continue Reading

Posted By Kevin Roberts On Wednesday, March 10th 2010. Under NFL Tags: Alex Smith, Anquan Boldin, Antonio Bryant, Atlanta Falcons, Baltimore Ravens, Bernard Berrian, Braylon Edwards, Brett Favre, Buffalo Bills, David Carr, Derrick Mason, Detroit Lions, Green Bay Packers, Houston Texans, Jacksonville Jaguars, Jerricho Cotchery, Justin Gage, Kevin Walter, LaDainian Tomlinson, Larry Fitzgerald, matt jones, Miami Dolphins, Mike Singletary, Minnesota Vikings, Nate Washington, New York Giants, New York Jets, nfl free agency, Oakland Raiders, Peyton Manning, Pittsburgh Steelers, Plaxico Burress, San Diego Chargers, San Francicsco 49ers, St. Louis Rams, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Tennessee Titans, Tony Gonzalez, Torry Holt, Vincent Jackson

Posted By Kevin Roberts On Thursday, February 11th 2010. Under NFL, NFL Draft Tags: 2010 NFL Draft, Alex Smith, California, Chicago Bears, CJ Spiller, Colt McCoy, Detroit Lions, Eric Berry, Gerald McCoy, Green Bay Packers, Jahvid Best, Jimmy Clausen, Jonathan Dwyer, Keith Null, Kyle Boller, Marc Bulger, Minnesota Vikings, Ndamukong Suh, New Orleans Saints, Notre Dame, Sam Bradford, San Francicsco 49ers, St. Louis Rams, Steve Spagnuolo, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Tim Tebow, Toby Gerhart, Tony Pike, USC, Washington Redskins

Mike Martz hasn't always been known as the easiest guy to get along with. It's not necessarily that he's mean, arrogant, or brass. He's just stubborn. He loves to air it out. He passes to set-up the pass. His offense thrives on blowing the other team's offense out of the water, making ... Continue Reading
