The Bucs Are All Wet
I went to a Tampa Bay Buccaneers game a few weeks ago over Thanksgiving weekend. I was visiting family for the holiday and that Sunday, the Bucs were hosting the New Orleans Saints. Back then, the Bucs were 9-3 and a shoo-in for the playoffs. Now? After consecutive losses, not so much. The chances for [...]
Monday NFL Minute: Titans win (again), Lions lose (again), and plenty more
There’s still one more game to be played in Week 11 of the NFL season, but Week 11’s first 15 games have yielded plenty of observations, a few surprises, and a few things staying according to form. The Titans keep winning, the Lions keep losing, and there was neither in Cincinnati yesterday. Cleveland and Buffalo [...]
NFL Fantasy Start or Sit Week 10
Because I’m dumb, I forgot to post it up before the Thursday night game. Sorry to all those who missed out on his selection of Quinn, which proved to be quite the hit. It seems this week is all about change. Our country has changed presidents. The Lions have changed quarterbacks. The NFL has changed [...]
Monday NFL Minute: Titans, Bills keep rolling at 4-0, Broncos, Cowboys fall from the ranks of the unbeaten
Sunday was an action-filled day in the NFL. We saw the number of unbeaten teams reduced from six to four, a career day from Brett Favre, a couple of vintage performances, an extension of misery for a few teams, including one (at least) who’ll likely have a new coach in the coming days. All in [...]
NFL Fantasy Start or Sit Week 4: Whose time is it to Shine, Who should Ride the Pine?

Which early NFL surprises aren’t pretenders, and which struggling contenders are?
It doesn’t take long as a football fan to know that you should only take so much stock in preseason predictions, because once the teams hit the field, you can put those predictions through the shredder. Through the first couple of weeks of the NFL season, a number of contenders have gotten off to the [...]
Vikings replace Jackson with Frerotte at QB – right move for right now?
In a move that likely doesn’t surprise anyone, including Tarvaris Jackson, Minnesota’s Brad Childress has decided to bench his third-year QB in favor of veteran Gus Frerotte after the Vikings’ 0-2 start. After having Adrian Peterson have a sensational rookie season and making big moves in the off-season, the Vikings were expected to be a [...]
NFC contenders impress, several AFC contenders depress in Week 1
Week 1 of the NFL season was a rough week for several of the AFC’s top contenders. New England won their opener against Kansas City, but in case you haven’t somehow heard by now, lost Tom Brady for the remainder of the season with a torn ACL. Indianapolis made a questionable Chicago offense look pretty [...]
