One of the most difficult things to guess is a team's starting receiving line-up, especially this early in the season. Rookies can gain huge strides due to injuries or poor performances from veterans, while lackluster efforts from the corps can cause the front office to panic and sign someone off the street, or even try to pull a trade. There are a lot of questions regarding Plaxico Burress, Matt Jones, Marvin Harrison, and now even Brandon Marshall. With the AFC out of ...Read More

Tony Romo lost his most talented weapon (Terrell Owens) this off-season, and now only has Roy Williams as a reliable receiver target. However, the word in Dallas is that Owens being gone will lift any distractions from the team, and will have the offense performing more fluidly and in turn, will be more effective. Maybe, and maybe not. Read on to see who wins the quarterback position battles, who is falling, and who is on the rise, in a team-by-team glance: NFC East Eli Manning, ...Read More

It's inarguable. Peyton Manning and Tom Brady are, without question, the best two quarterbacks in the NFL. No ifs, ands, or buts about it. They are 1 and 1a. Which order? That's up to you. However, seeing all the hoopla surrounding Brady's return to Patriots' OTAs got me thinking. When will their reign end?

There's more lists filtering through this site than pop-up ads. It's getting to that "awesomely ridiculous" stage. And I'm not complaining. God, no. I love it. What's better than the actual NFL season? The answer is nothing, but a close second is the constant coverage it gets, despite being almost four months away. We have the Brett Favre saga, fantasy football hype, trades, roster changes, and best of all, rankings that in no way matter right now. Such is the life of an NFL ...Read More

NFL Draft Quarterback Rankings 1. Matthew Stafford (Georgia) Stafford is cool and calm under pressure, has the ideal size and build, and possesses a cannon for an arm. Whether or not he's the next great quarterback of the league is not the issue. He's hands down the best passer in this draft. 2. Mark Sanchez (USC) Sanchez is a close second to Stafford, but doesn't have as big of an arm. He's also had some injury issues in his past, and doesn't have a ...Read More

There are two ways you can look at the number of candidates that there are for this season’s NFL MVP. On one hand, the optimistic fan or voter could say that there have been so many excellent performers that it’s too hard to single out that one deserving player. On the other hand, many can say that there have been many good performers, but that no one had a ‘great’ season. Last season, it was pretty cut ...Read More

The Detroit Lions officially confirmed themselves as the worst team in NFL history. Valiant effort as they put up against Green Bay, the end result was a 31-21 loss. Fortunately for Lions fans, Matt Millen won’t have any involvement in deciding who gets taken with the #1 pick in the 2009 NFL Draft, and Rod Marinelli likely won’t (at least he shouldn’t!) be back next season. Amazing how, a year after the first 16-0 regular season in ...Read More

Last night, the San Diego Chargers finally looked like a good football team in their 34-7 win over Oakland. Attribute part of it to the competition that they were going up against, but it’s safe to say it was their best game since Week 6 against New England, and maybe over the entire season. But, even so, I was still just a little disappointed with LaDainian Tomlinson’s final stat line. L.T. did run for 91 yards and ...Read More

We’re already coming up on November and the halfway point of the 2008 NFL season, and what a season it’s been so far. At the start of the season, who’d have expected the Tennessee Titans to be 7-0 right now and four games ahead of the Indianapolis Colts and Jacksonville Jaguars in the AFC South? What about the San Diego Chargers being 3-5, despite Phillip Rivers having a career season? Then there are the injuries to some of the ...Read More

Week four had it all. Upsets, goal line stands, emotional moments, another direct snap for a rushing touchdown, an unsuccessful 76-yard field goal attempt, head coach firings, and a sighting of a nostalgic T.O. Some of this week's upsets had a common theme, exposing shaky defenses. The Washington Redskins went into Dallas and upset the undefeated, rival Cowboys by making their defense look old, tired, and overrated. Kansas City was also looking to expose another undefeated team's defense. The Chiefs, who ...Read More
