Buffalo Bills Quarterback Watch: Who Is The Starter In 2010?
Buffalo Bills beat writer Sal Maionrana reportedly “agrees” with the Buffalo News that Trent Edwards has a very good chance at returning as the Bills’ starting quarterback in 2010. Considering, at the moment, his main competition is Ryan Fitzpatrick and Brian Brohm, that seems to be a solid prediction. However, there are many reasons why [...]
NFL Quick Hits (Jan. 20th): Buffalo Bills hire Chan Gailey as head coach, Jonathan Stewart has surgery, and more
Chan Gailey Made Buffalo Bills Head Coach The Buffalo Bills hired Georgie Tech coach Chan Gailey as their new head coach. Saying Gailey’s name out loud doesn’t quite erase the taste that Dick Jauron left in fan’s mouths, and it doesn’t necessarily get you thinking “playoffs”, either. However, with 34 years of experience in college [...]
NFL Quick Hits (September 29): Colts’ Freeney out 2-3 weeks, knee to sideline Cowboys RB Jones, San Fran’s Gore out for three weeks, and more
Dwight Freeney Out 2-3 Weeks For Colts Freeney hurt his quad in Sunday night’s win over the Cardinals, and will almost surely miss the next two games, but should make it back for week seven after Indianpolis’s bye. This puts added pressure on Robert Mathis, as the Colts had already been dealing with a slew [...]
Ranking the NFL’s Head Coaches: The Bottom 16
Every year experts discuss their reasoning for their Super Bowl favorite, or they are forced into providing an excuse for a certain team not making the playoffs. Far too often are quarterbacks placed under the microscope, injury-riddled offensive lines torn apart, or prima donna wide receivers bashed in online blogs. When do the coaches go [...]
2009 NFL Mock Draft (Updated: Feb. 20)
The combine gets underway in earnest this weekend, with drills upon drills upon drills taking place from Saturday to Tuesday, starting with the offensive linemen tomorrow and ending with the defensive backs on Tuesday. I thought I’d squeeze in an update ahead of the important stuff, but it goes without saying that what happens over [...]
Monday NFL Minute: Titans win (again), Lions lose (again), and plenty more
There’s still one more game to be played in Week 11 of the NFL season, but Week 11’s first 15 games have yielded plenty of observations, a few surprises, and a few things staying according to form. The Titans keep winning, the Lions keep losing, and there was neither in Cincinnati yesterday. Cleveland and Buffalo [...]
The Good, The Bad, The Forgettable: Matt’s NFL Week 4 Awards
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 [...]
The Good, The Bad, The Forgettable: Matt’s NFL Week 3 Awards
A proper title for week 3 is “Rise and Fall.” Besides the Dallas Cowboys, the NFL’s unbeaten teams are a list of unusual suspects. The Buffalo Bills, Tennessee Titans, New York Giants, and Denver Broncos stand at 3-0, and the Baltimore Ravens stay unbeaten as well at 2-0. Some of the other teams on the [...]
Chiefs giving Brodie Croyle his chance to lead
The Kansas City Chiefs had what is generally regarded as the NFL’s best draft this April, but one area the team didn’t address among its 12 picks was at quarterback, which was a tad surprising for a team that that ranked next to last in the league in points (14.1 a game) and yards (276.8) [...]
