As the NFL enters the middle of the season, it is painfully obvious which teams are heading in the right direction, and which teams are not. I am going to take the teams that have already shown that 2009 will not be their year, and what they need to do in 2010. Starting at the bottom, the St. Louis Rams are ranked 32 on most people's Power Rankings, at least those ...

Last weekù9-5 Overallù47-28 There are some games that should not have counted as losses.á Buffalo beating the Jets, and Oakland beating the Eagles is just wrong. I do have to say though, I did a pretty good job at picking the Chiefs to win their first game of the season beating the Redskins, and I missed the score of the Monday Night game between the Broncos and Chargers by two points. OK, enough ...

Three weeks ago, the Baltimore Ravens stood atop of the AFC North at 3-0. I wrote an article warning that the road was going to get bumpy, but they didn't care. You still heard the talk of dynasty. First came the New England Patriots, in New England. In a hard fought game, the Patriots came out on top. Many Ravens and their fans were pointing the blame for the loss on the ...

After the injury to Troy Polamalu against the Tennessee Titans in Week One of the regular season, the Steelers suffered an identity crisis. Sure, for the first three quarters of the game, they played like the Steelers. We did not see the elaborate blitz packages, but they still shut down the run. Then in the fourth quarters of game, something happened. The Steelers stopped playing like the Steelers. In Chicago, the Steelers took ...

Prior to the beginning of the NFL Week Six match up, the AFC North looked different than it had in years. The Cincinnati Bengals were sitting atop at 4-1, winning one game against each of the divisional rivals.á The Baltimore Ravens were in second, after losing to those Bengals last week. The defending Champion Pittsburgh Steelers were in third place, after losing back to back games in weeks two and three.á The Browns, well, ...

After three weeks of the 2008 season, the Baltimore Ravens sat atop of the AFC North with a 2-0 record. Led by rookie coach John Harbaugh and rookie quarter back Joe Flacco, the Ravens looked like a team on the rise. In Week Four, the Ravens traveled to Pittsburgh to play the 2-1 Steelers. Prior to the game, Ray Lewis was heard saying that the Ravens were going to be a ...

The playoff race in the NFL is always exciting, but 2009 may be better than anyone had imagined only six weeks ago. Normally, two of the four divisions are decided with three weeks left in the season, then there are normally two teams competing for the Wild Card spots. That will not be the case in 2009. AFC North Cincinnati Bengals 4-1 Baltimore Ravens 3-2 Pittsburgh Steelers 3-2 Cincinnati is one miracle play from being 5-0, ...

For the first time since just before halftime of the Week One victory over the Tennessee Titans, Troy Polamalu is expected to return for a full practice this Wednesday. Polamalu did practice last week, leading up to the game against the Lions, but it was determined that it would be best to hold him out another week. There will probably not be such luck for the Cleveland Browns, who Polamalu is expected ...

Sunday, Dec. 21, 2008. The Tennessee Titans were hosting the Pittsburgh Steelers, with the winner of the game having the inside track to the best record in the AFC, and home field advantage through out the playoffs. The Titans entered the game hungrier than the Steelers, and abused them to the tune of 31-14. Not only winning the game, but securing the rights to be called the best team in the ...
