Mike Martz hasn't always been known as the easiest guy to get along with. It's not necessarily that he's mean, arrogant, or brass.
He's just stubborn.
He loves to air it out. He passes to set-up the pass. His offense thrives on blowing the other team's offense out of the water, making ... Continue Reading

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 ... Continue Reading

The NFL Playoffs are finally upon us. From the Baltimore Ravens and New York Jets (who barely sneaked in) to the Indianapolis Colts (who were in since Week 10), the field is set, and ready to go.
Despite our solid picks throughout the season, however, we (like any writers) tense up ... 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?".

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

1. New Orleans Saints (13-0)
They pulled the baby out of the fire the last two weeks, but New Orleans is doing the right thing by keeping their starters in the rest of the way and trying for 16-0.
2. Indianapolis Colts (13-0)
Many experts are saying Indianapolis will sit their ... Continue Reading
Is The Quest For Perfection In The NFL Worth The Risk?

Let's be honest.
This whole "going undefeated" thing just doesn't happen in the NFL. Save for the 2007 New England Patriots, it's only happened one other time in the entire history of the league, and we can only count two times that we've seen a team reach the Super Bowl without ... Continue Reading
