According to Adam Schefter's Twitter account, Pittsburgh has reportedly handed golden boy quarterback Ben Roethlisberger his final paycheck as a Steeler. After a painfully long deliberation process, the Rooney family has decided that Big Ben's questionable off-the-field antics have warranted a quiet exit. An official statement to the media by General Manager Kevin Colbert is expected later today. Roethlisberger was accused of sexual assault by a 20-year-old college student in Georgia ...

Houston is coming off of its best record (9-7) since its inception, and all eyes are on a playoff berth for the 2010 season. In an effort to maintain the integrity of last year's relative success, the front office opted to retain head coach Gary Kubiak, a move that may create a greater sense of urgency in the play-calling this year.  The Texans' greatest loss this off season was ...

Now that the combine is behind us, it's time to look forward to the draft and determine who is riding a good workout to an early berth and who is grasping straws to remain in contention. Offensive linemen are the big uglies of the game and their individual athleticism is very important in determining how effective they will be. Perhaps we will look back on this draft and see future pro ...

The NFL Combine is behind us, and for many of the young players who put their athleticism on display, draft stocks are fluctuating. For some, their performance in Indianapolis has garnered a newfound level of attention from scouts and media personnel alike.  For others, their hopes for an early berth rest on a successful Pro Day in the coming weeks. The Combine is a good time for below-the-radar prospects to showcase their abilities ...

With the league's Final Eight Rule in effect and an uncapped year upon us, the 2010 free agency period will take the first hit. Due to the number of tenders available to each team and the change in rule concerning fourth-year players eying the end of their rookie contracts, the market is slim and the moves are big. Take a look at which teams in the AFC have already moved some big ...

This year's uncapped free agency period is already off to a roll and it's not over yet. Chicago and Detroit have made the biggest splashes so far, and the New York Jets turned a few heads as well. Thursday night through Friday morning was a period fraught with verbal contracts and signed agreements.  The dust is starting to clear, but the ride isn't anywhere close to being over. There are still ...

The 2010 NFL combine is upon us again and, as usual, all eyes are on the big names and the touted reputations. Unfortunately, five of the top quarterbacks going into April have opted to "not play to lose" rather than "play to win." Florida's Tim Tebow, Texas' Colt McCoy, Oklahoma's Sam Bradford, and Notre Dame's Jimmy Clausen have all decided to wait until their prospective pro days to preform the throwing ...

Every year, especially of late, it seems the Raiders are in the same position-in rebuilding mode and in need of serious upgrades and discipline on the field. The team did manage to pull off a few upsets against Philadelphia, Cincinnati, Pittsburgh, and Denver, but it will take more than a few lucky wins to establish some valid legitimacy.á You can blame it on Al Davis, Tom Cable, and the rest of the ...
