We scoured over all the options last year when Owens was released by the Cowboys, and virtually nobody thought of the ... Continue Reading

Losman, Jeff Garcia, Kyle Boller, Miami Dolphins, Oakland Raiders, Pittsburgh Steelers, Rex Grossman, St. Louis Rams, Washington Redskins

The NFL has 32 teams, and of those teams, there are 23 of them that have a bonafide elite starter or a young passer that is deemed the "franchise passer", at least for now. That means roughly nine teams could or should be looking at the quarterback position in the 2010 ... Continue Reading

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 ... Continue Reading

Irony, it appears, is not lost in the NFL. The team that was openly vocal about aiming for a 16-0 season, the New Orleans Saints, was handed it's first loss in Week 15, while the team that was quiet and disciplined, the Indianapolis Colts, continued it's march for perfection. While the top ... Continue Reading

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 ... Continue Reading
