Winners and Losers: Matt Gentile’s Week 2 NFL Awards
The theme for week 2 was game-winning drives. Some of the NFL’s top quarterbacks led their teams down field to get the victory in the fourth quarter. Some of the performances were breathtaking. Eli Manning marched the New York Giants’ offense 56 yards down field before allowing Lawrence Tynes to kick the game-winning, 37 yard [...]
Five Things To Watch For: Dallas Cowboys
The Cowboys were supposed to be “America’s Team” again. They were fresh off of an impressive 13-3 record and an NFC East title. They were Super Bowl contenders, and at the very least, playoff guarantees. Well, one broken pinkie later, and all that 2007 created in Dallas was ruined. Fast forward to the off-season, and [...]
Fantasy Football Tier Rankigs: Wide Receivers
In several mock drafts, Larry Fitzgerald, Randy Moss, and Andre Johnson have taken turns being the first receiver off the board, and all three have found themselves drafted in the first round on at least a few occasions. But those are easy calls. It’s difficult to assess talent and environment, and after the first tier [...]
Fantasy Football Preview: NFC Wide Receivers
One of the most difficult things to guess is a team’s starting receiving line-up, especially this early in the season.

Go Back to Round 2 Round 3 65. Detroit Lions – Fili Moala, DT, USC Just one of the many USC prospects, Moala has been overlooked all the way into the third round. He is a massive man with good strength, and should give the Lions an inside presence they haven’t had since Shaun Rogers. [...]
T.O. out in Dallas – what’s next for both parties?
Well, everyone who thought that it wouldn’t be long before the Dallas Cowboys would come to regret signing Terrell Owens were right. After three seasons and just as many lowlights as highlights, the Cowboys are parting ways with T.O. Jerry Jones has played the situation close to the vest up to this point, trying not [...]
Roy Williams trade good for Williams, Dallas, and Detroit
Tuesday was the NFL trading deadline, and while there wasn’t a flurry of action as there tends to be in the other major sports leagues, there was a pretty significant move. Kansas City Chiefs TE Tony Gonzalez was openly on the trading block, but unfortunately for him, he’s stuck in K.C. for at least the [...]
Dallas’ secondary a primary strength in 2008?
Today, the NFL decided to, as expected, reinstate cornerback Adam Jones after an indefinite suspension. I know, cue the obligatory insults, comments regarding Jones or the Cowboys and their harboring of fugitives, blah, blah, blah. But, an important question to consider now that Jones is officially in their ranks for the regular season (besides if [...]
