This off-season has had a different feel for the Cincinnati Bengals. Coming off a season where they won only their third division title in the last twenty years, the Bengals spent the winter and early spring filling a few holes in their roster and bolstering their depth chart. One of the focuses of the off-season was improving a pass offense which ranked No. 26 in the NFL last season ...

When you are a team that has the history of being the greatest defensive team of all time, it is hard to get a lot of credit when you are an offensive player. Then, when your offense has always been known as a run-oriented team, it becomes even harder for you if you are not a running back. Currently, the Pittsburgh Steelers have two players in the Pro Football Hall of Fame ...

When a quote unquote Dynasty gets manhandled to the tune of 33-14 in a home playoff game that's about the time it becomes patently obvious that a fairly major overhaul of the franchise in question is required. I'll tell you one thing I'll never do; claim to know more about football than "the hoodie."  That being said, I believe he's even more aware than us fans that something needs to change to return this ...

A typical fantasy football league consists of 12 teams, nine starters (QB, two RBs, three WRs, TE, K, D), and anywhere from five to seven bench players. If you go with the latter bench allotment, you’re looking at 16 roster spots or 192 draft picks.

It's quite rare to be heading into the regular season, realizing that one team may quite possibly be hoisting the Lombardi Trophy high above their heads in front of their home crowd. Luckily though, we NFL fans may be delighted to this very scene in 2010, as the Dallas Cowboys finally look to recapture their winning ways, and push toward a Super Bowl appearance in front of the Dallas faithful. Recently in ...

The San Francisco 49ers made a very savvy move early this spring, taking advantage of the lack of a salary cap to give perennial All-Pro linebacker Patrick Willis just reward for his early career success, while securing him in red and gold for the next five seasons. The move marked a departure from the normal salary cap-mandated work around of a back-heavy contract, and gave the young linebacker a large sum ...

  News broke today on NFLLabor.com regarding a new blood test that can detect the presence of human growth hormone, or HGH, much better than the current test.  According to the site, the new test, called a bio-markers test, detects chemicals an athletes' body produces after using HGH. The current test, called the isoform test, searches for synthetic HGH. While the isoform test works, its limited in its ability to detect HGH to only 48 hours. In contrast, the ...

Seeing LeBron James leaving Cleveland actually coming to fruition, I realized it wasn't the worst thing Clevelanders had experienced. There are many things that have gone wrong in Cleveland history, but it also brings us a reminder of what could have been if things went Cleveland's way. Note: No video will be shown as respect to the people living in Cleveland, or people that just like Cleveland sports in general ...

Pittsburgh sports personality Gene Collier has claimed the Pittsburgh Steelers will only win six games this upcoming season. He sites the absence of traded WR Santonio Holmes and injured guard Willie Colon as reasons but for everything that is lost, there is always something gained.
