The thing that is great about sports is that to the fans point of view, there is pure evil and eternal goodness. A Packers fan may envision heaven as Lambeau Field with an adjustable thermostat while the eternal depths of Satan's realm may be outlined with Bears memorabilia. While most Bears fans would likely disagree with the above paragraph, I don't think anyone can disagree that the ten men in these slides ...

WOW! That’s pretty much the best way to describe the recent actions undertaken by the Philadelphia Eagles. The front office really is cold when it comes to dealing with the roster. Donovan McNabb, longtime Eagles quarterback and holder of all significant Eagle passing records, has been traded to the Washington Redskins, a division rival. I sort of can understand why they would trade McNabb. He’s going to be 34 in November. They have ...

The game of football is like fighting in World War I. You win by controlling the trenches. If you can control the main part of the event, you will be favored to win every time. Dallas has the guys in the trenches to win every time, but it is important to make sure that, just like in war, to be prepared for reinforcements. Football teams need capable men backing up the ...

The Houston Texans are a franchise that had mountain ranges to cross from day one really. They come into a city that is tired of losing. They had been a horribly snakebitten city when the Oilers were there. Then Bud Adams moves the Oilers to Tennessee and they become the Titans. I've been a Texan all my life, so I can actually speak to the environment and football culture here. The Texans ...

The Falcons are an organization that has a really morbid history to it. It has been as consistent as a Vegas slot machine when it comes to the team’s records. In fact, when head coach Mike Smith and the 2009 Falcons finished with a 9-7 record this year after an 11-5 record the year before, it marked the first time that the Falcons had ever had back-to-back winning seasons before. The Falcons ...

I’m going out a very thin limb here when I make a case for Dez Bryant. In 2009, before he got suspended for lying to the NCAA about conversing with Deion Sanders, he accumulated 17 catches, 323 yards, and four touchdowns. Incredible athlete, incredible player, and an incredible risk. Since his suspension, he's refused to show his talent. He listened to the advice of sports agent Eugene Parker and Deion Sanders, an NFL ...

  This is a very simple pick really. According to my mock, every defensive tackle/end that is worthy of the 16th overall pick is gone off the board, so despite having a great need on the defensive line especially since Kyle Vanden Bosch is now a Detroit Lion, I’m going to address the secondary issue. The Titans were 32nd in defense when it came to passes attempted against them, 31st in passing ...

The San Francisco 49ers are a team that has undergone a severe change of history and culture. In the Super Bowl era, the 49ers controlled the 1980s due to the genius of their head coach and general manager Bill Walsh. Walsh was an innovator who created the West Coast Offense that was a passing based offense used towards multiple receivers and if the receivers were covered, a running back or fullback could ...

The Denver Broncos have changed dramatically over the past season that it is almost as if they are a whole new identity. Let’s review, before this season the Denver Broncos were a passing team that had a franchise quarterback with a great arm named Jay Cutler. They had no real good running backs, but extremely talented receivers in Eddie Royal and Brandon Marshall. Jay Cutler was 17-20 as a starter though ...

The Jacksonville Jaguars are one of those teams that despite having a top-10 pick, they are not that bad of a football team. If you examine their roster, you’ll see either capable starters or young players from previous drafts that are in the process of being molded into players. This 7-9 team just has had some bad luck. First, they are in the same division as Peyton Manning and the Indianapolis Colts. ...
