Posted By Kevin Roberts On Thursday, February 18th 2010. Under NFL Tags: 2010 NFL Draft, Buffalo Bills, Carolina Panthers, Chad Pennington, Charlie Batch, Daunte Culpepper, Denver Broncos, Detroit Lions, J.P. 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

Posted By Kevin Roberts On Thursday, February 11th 2010. Under NFL, NFL Draft Tags: 2010 NFL Draft, Alex Smith, California, Chicago Bears, CJ Spiller, Colt McCoy, Detroit Lions, Eric Berry, Gerald McCoy, Green Bay Packers, Jahvid Best, Jimmy Clausen, Jonathan Dwyer, Keith Null, Kyle Boller, Marc Bulger, Minnesota Vikings, Ndamukong Suh, New Orleans Saints, Notre Dame, Sam Bradford, San Francicsco 49ers, St. Louis Rams, Steve Spagnuolo, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Tim Tebow, Toby Gerhart, Tony Pike, USC, Washington Redskins
The St. Louis Rams have begun to whisper enough that this writer thinks they are seriously considering going after Sam Bradford with the No. 1 overall pick.
Marc Bulger is dead weight, and Keith Null and Kyle Boller are not worth another season below 3-13.
True, Ndamukong Suh would be a welcomed ... Continue Reading

Since I live in the Chicagoland area and have been a Bears fan ever since my mother told me stories about Dick Butkus before bed, I try not to write exclusively about them. As a blogger, it's important to be unbiased and fair, which hopefully is the case whenever you ... Continue Reading
Is Mike Shanahan Washington’s Missing Piece?
Posted By Kevin Roberts On Thursday, January 7th 2010. Under NFL Tags: 2010 NFL Draft, Clinton Portis, Denver, Denver Broncos, Jason Campbell, Jim Zorn, Joe Gibbs, Mike Shanahan, Norv Turner, Oakland Raiders, Washington Redskins
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 ... 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
