NFL Quick Hits (Jan. 20th): Buffalo Bills hire Chan Gailey as head coach, Jonathan Stewart has surgery, and more
Chan Gailey Made Buffalo Bills Head Coach The Buffalo Bills hired Georgie Tech coach Chan Gailey as their new head coach. Saying Gailey’s name out loud doesn’t quite erase the taste that Dick Jauron left in fan’s mouths, and it doesn’t necessarily get you thinking “playoffs”, either. However, with 34 years of experience in college [...]

Wes Welker Reportedly Out For Playoffs Welker sustained a knee injury in the first quarter of Sunday’s game against the Houston Texans, and according to several sources, he has torn both his ACL and MCL ligaments.

While both games were in question until the final minute, both the New Orleans Saints and Indianapolis Colts still exited Week 10 with unblemished records, and deserve to sit atop the rankings.

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.

Kevin Roberts’ NFL Week 8 Power Rankings
(The idle Broncos lose their top spot) The unofficial “best team in the league”, the Denver Broncos, sat out week seven’s exciting action, and despite their solid play through a 6-0 record, they won’t be able to hold onto their top spot. If they weren’t already the team to beat in the NFL, the New [...]
NFL Fantasy Football Start & Sit Week 6: Shockey to break out against old team?
(Wait til’ you see this kid under the lights.) Last week’s Start/Sit column brought you a mediocre 7-8 record out of five starts, five sits, and five sleepers. But week six offers much more promise. Take a look for yourself and see if you don’t find yourself in agreement. As always, mind your bye week [...]
NFL Quick Hits (Oct. 13th) Miles Austin’s role to increase, Bulger starting again for Rams, and more
Dallas Says Miles Austin’s Role Will Increase I sure hope so. Austin nearly topped Roy Williams’ numbers for the season with 10 catches for 250 yards and two touchdowns. It’s evident now that Austin is ready to start, which means someone’s role will be hacked into. Roy Williams should be healthy after the Cowboys’ week [...]
Five Things To Watch For: Buffalo Bills
The Buffalo Bills started 2008 red-hot, but stumbled to their third straight 7-9 season under Dick Jauron down the stretch, putting his future on the line, while keeping the so-called “sleeper” Bills from the playoffs for yet another season. While Trent Edwards has shown glimpses of talent that’s still good enough to keep J.P. Losman [...]
Ranking the NFL’s Head Coaches: The Bottom 16
Every year experts discuss their reasoning for their Super Bowl favorite, or they are forced into providing an excuse for a certain team not making the playoffs. Far too often are quarterbacks placed under the microscope, injury-riddled offensive lines torn apart, or prima donna wide receivers bashed in online blogs. When do the coaches go [...]
Which NFL coaches could be feeling the heat in ’09?
It’s a great debate heading into every season, but generally gets even more interesting after the first 4-6 weeks. Everyone wants to know – is this the year their team’s coach gets canned? Well, if your favorite team is Cincinnati or Washington, it’s entirely possible. Still, it’s a strange marvel when coaches that the whole [...]
