Kevin Roberts’ 2010 NFL Mock Draft 2.0
We already took a crack at the 2010 NFL Draft, but after seeing which players have officially declared, and how several prospects unfolded as the season went on, we knew we were way off. But it’s the dawning of a new NFL season, despite the playoffs still going on, as the other 28 teams not [...]
Has Vince Young Proven He Belongs in the NFL?
After two straight weak showings to end the 2009 NFL season, Vince Young has some explaining to do. Or, more importantly, some more doubters to prove wrong. Young took the league by storm with a sensational rookie season in 2006, when he scored 19 total touchdowns (seven rushing) and guided the Titans to an 8-8 [...]
2009 NFL MVP Race: Down to Four Candidates
Brett Favre made his comeback worth while. He stared “late-season slide” talk straight in the face, and proceeded to throw six touchdowns and over 600 yards in his last five quarters. Drew Brees and Peyton Manning faded (along with their teams), as they spent their final weeks on the bench of playing like shells of [...]
NFL Week 17 Preview: Chris Johnson Eyes 2,000 yards
We’re in the final week of the 2009 NFL regular season, and before we turn the fortunes of the 2009 portion into the hands of 2010 and the next decade, we still have one last glance at some special moments in Week 17. We’ve seen some interesting things, some scary things, and some shocking things [...]
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 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, [...]
CJ2K Watch Week 16: Titans’ Johnson 270 Yards From 2,000
With two winnable games left against San Diego and at Seattle, the 7-7 Tennessee Titans are very much in the thick of the AFC playoff hunt. And while Vince Young’s continued resurgence is worthily grabbing headlines from an individual standpoint, Chris Johnson’s pursuit of 2,000 yards remains well in the spotlight as well. Johnson had [...]
Kevin Roberts’ Week 15 NFL Power Rankings
The story of the 2009 season continues to be about the two undefeated teams, and whether or not they will strive for perfection. There have been rumors that the Indianapolis Colts will begin to rest their starters in the next couple of weeks, which could hurt their chances for a 16-0 season. The New Orleans [...]
Kevin Roberts’ Week 14 NFL Power Rankings
While the Saints comeback and win over the Washington Redskins in overtime normally would be the story of the week in the NFL, it holds no water compared to the suddenly very interesting division races in the AFC and NFC East. The Giants got past the Cowboys and Tony Romo’s fantastic day of 392 yards [...]
NFL Week 13 Preview: Five Things to Watch For
Like the band U2, we still haven’t found what we’re looking for. The New England Patriots proved to be no match for the New Orleans Saints, who have now been crowned as the best team in the league atop our NFL Power Rankings, while the Indianapolis Colts kept pace and reached 11-0. We highly doubt [...]
