Is Mike Shanahan Washington’s Missing Piece?
Norv Turner couldn’t do it. The guy that originally brought Washington two titles, Joe Gibbs, couldn’t get it done in his second try, either. Few truly believed Jim Zorn, who had zero previous head coaching experience was ready, so after all the Washington Redskins franchise has been through in the past 15+ years, what makes [...]
Kevin Roberts’ NFL Post-Season Power Rankings
You can never learn anything if you don’t re-trace your steps. That’s why, instead of merely assessing each team’s standing in the rankings for the final Power Rankings of the season, this writer is looking back to Week One, both to judge the teams that failed us, as well as the writer’s original thoughts on [...]
NFL Quick Hits (Jan. 4th): Wes Welker done for year, Jim Zorn fired, Bill Cowher may not return, and more
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.

Kevin Roberts’ NFL Power Rankings Week 17
We learned a few things in Week 16. The New Orleans Saints didn’t just trip up against the Dallas Cowboys in Week 15. They got exposed, and quite clearly, in a big way. If the Tampa Bay Buccaneers can sneak by them, the question is begging to be asked, “Who can’t?”. Speaking of former unbeaten [...]
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 Quick Hits (Oct. 23rd) Jerricho Cotchery and Trent Edwards ruled out for Sunday, and more
(Leave Cotchery on your bench.) Jerricho Cotchery Ruled Out For Sunday Despite reports yesterday that it was looking good for Cotchery to play this week, he will miss yet another week due to a bad hamstring. The Jets just don’t want to chance it. Cotchery probably wouldn’t have been much of a factor against a [...]
Matt Gentile’s Week Seven NFL Power Rankings
1. New Orleans Saints (6-0) After pounding the New York Giants, New Orleans has shown they have a complete team to go with their explosive offense. Drew Brees is in rare form, so stopping him will not be an easy task. 2. Denver Broncos (6-0) Denver has outscored their opponent 76-10 in the second half [...]

NFL Quick Hits (September 28): Ankle to sideline 49ers’ Gore?, which Chad will start at QB in Miami?, McNabb back for Eagles after bye, and more
Frank Gore Expected Out For “at least” Two Weeks NFL Network’s Jason La Canfora is reporting that Gore will miss about two weeks with what seems to be a high ankle sprain. There are conflicting reports, but the fact that Gore only had one carry in a very close and heated battle with the Vikings, [...]
Five Things To Watch For: Washington Redskins
The Redskins started hot in 2008 and showed the world their potential. Unfortunately, with a disappointing 2-6 finish, they missed the playoffs, causing mixed reviews and a lot of uncertainty. After a solid draft and a big off-season full of DeAngelo Hall and Albert Haynesworth signings, the Redskins look to be back to their winning [...]
